FL4K (self-named by shortening a meaningless 512 alphanumeric characters long factory designator) is a playable character in Borderlands 3, appearing as the Beastmaster[1] class.

Appearances

Skills

FL4K's Action Skills are Fade Away, Rakk Attack! and Gamma Burst [1].

Fade Away

FL4K cloaks, turning invisible. FL4K can fire three shots while cloaked, and each shot is automatically a Critical Hit. While cloaked, FL4K gains increased movement speed and health regeneration.

  • Critical Damage: +200%
  • Movement Speed: +25%
  • Health Regeneration: +3% Max Health/sec
  • Duration: 15 seconds
  • Cooldown: 45 seconds

Rakk Attack!

FL4K sends forward 2 rakk to dive-bomb enemies. This skill has multiple charges.

  • Damage: 35 (Scales with level)
  • Cooldown: 18 seconds

Gamma Burst

FL4K creates a rift at a target location, teleporting their pet through the rift and doing radiation damage to nearby enemies. Additionally, FL4K's pet becomes irradiated, growing in size and dealing bonus radiation damage when it attacks.

Using Gamma Burst while FL4K's pet is downed or dead will revive the pet at the targeted location with 30% of its health, but will double Gamma Burst's cooldown time.

  • Damage: 56 (Scales with level)
  • Duration: 20 seconds
  • Cooldown: 30 seconds

In addition to possessing three action skills, FL4K has the ability to command one of three pets to travel alongside them, each with varying abilities and attributes to assist in combat.

Once summoned, FL4K's selected pet will follow FL4K wherever they go, automatically fighting any enemies they encounter. This will continue until the death of said pet. In this case, a cooldown period will begin, at the end of which the selected pet will respawn automatically to join FL4K once again. Each Pet is tied to one of FL4K's skill trees. As skill points are put into these trees, new evolutionary forms will be unlocked for the associated pet, changing their stats, appearance, and the effects of FL4K's attack command. The pets will also give ammunition, and on rare occasions weapons and will sniff out chests prompting FL4K to give the player a verbal command. In addition to their given pets, FL4K can gain the ability to turn enemies into Pets temporarily using the "Dominance" skill of the "Master" skill tree. If this ability is used on a beast, the duration of the effect will be doubled.[2].

Jabber Sidekick

FL4K is joined by a Jabber Sidekick that is armed with a pistol. While accompanied by the jabber, FL4K's movement speed is increased.

Holding the Action Skill key issues an attack command where the jabber throws a radiation barrel at enemies.

  • Movement Speed: +5.0%

Spiderant Centurion

FL4K is joined by a Spiderant Centurion companion that imparts FL4K with health regeneration.
