Arms Race[]

Main article: Arms Race

Arms Race is the galaxy's premier reality murder show, hosted by former Vault Hunters turned ECHOcast commentators: Axton and Salvador. Taking place throughout the Stormblind Complex, an expansive decommissioned DAHL military base in a hidden corner of Pandora, Arms Race strips the Vault Hunters of all their skills and gear, forcing them to find the equipment necessary to survive against hordes of enemies and the icy Murdercane ravaging the area. Axton and Salvador narrate as the Vault Hunters scrounge for gear, fight to survive and avoid the always-encroaching Murdercane.

Features[]

  • A new Skill Tree for each playable Vault Hunter.
  • A new game mode: Arms Race.
  • Gear Extractors placed exclusively throughout Stormblind Complex. These Extractors allow high-tier items (such as Legendary weapons) to be extracted from Stormblind Complex - where normally they would be wiped from the Vault Hunter's inventory upon leaving - for use throughout the rest of Borderlands 3.
  • Multiple new unique, purple, and legendary weapons and gear.

Notes[]

  • When inside Stormblind Complex, the location of Arms Race, every item (weapon, shield, etc.) and every skill and ability that has been specced into is stripped from the Vault Hunter, leaving them with only a full health bar and their bare fists. Items and specced skills are all restored upon leaving Stormblind Complex.
