Notes

• When coming from the direction of Claptrap's Place after defeating her once, Knuckle Dragger spawns as the character rounds the corner leading to the cliff above her area. When Knuckle Dragger is killed, all his loot will be "fired" into the sky to land on the platform where she was fought the first time.
• If there is anything above her when she dies, the loot can end up being thrown inside the level geometry and lost.
• A farming tactic for the Hornet is to enter the Southern Shelf, then re-enter Windshear Waste, allowing players to save and quit and always spawn next to Knuckle Dragger when entering the game. She can also be lured into the drop barge at this point, thus confining Her loot drop to a smaller area.
• During Day 1 of the Borderlands 2 $100,000 Loot Hunt, Knuckle Dragger could drop the Gwen's Head.

Trivia

• Knuckle Dragger is the first boss in the Borderlands series that appears at Level 1.
