Bucephelus Deadlift MacElroy, simply known as Deadlift, is a scav boss in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel.

Background

Deadlift is an unknown Scav leader known for his obsession of jump pads. He was imprisoned by Colonel Zarpedon for raiding Dahl dig sites and somehow managed to escape confinement. When Janey Springs rebuffed his advances, he was enraged and stole her Moon Zoomy digistruct key, stranding her out in Serenity's Waste.

Involvement

After providing the Vault Hunters with an Oz Kit, Janey Springs requests the Vault Hunters to kill Deadlift and retrieve the Moon Zoomy digistruct key, so they could reach the settlement Concordia. In a desperate attempt to stop the Vault Hunters, Zarpedon successfully provokes Deadlift by duping him with a false claim of the Vault Hunters' spite for his jump pads. Deadlift then disables the jump pad granting access to his arena, but the Vault Hunters manage to restore its power, killing him after a protracted fight.
