Pestilence is a legendary pistol in Borderlands 3 manufactured by COV. It can only be obtained from Sylestro in Tazendeer Ruins on Nekrotafeyo, or Heckle and Hyde in Jakobs Estate on Eden-6.
Special Weapon Effects[]
Go forth conquering, and to conquer.
- Always radiation. Increased fire rate.
- -10% weapon damage. +50% repair time. +20% spread.
- On breaks, creates a radiation nova that damages both the user and nearby enemies.
Usage & Description[]
The Pestilence performs well for a weapon of its class, but care must be used to prevent overheating as the self-damage can potentially cripple the user.
Notes[]
- When paired with the Red Suit shield, it can be used as an offensive weapon as the shield will negate the Pestilence's user-inflicted damage.
Trivia[]
- The name and flavor text reference the first of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse in Revelation 6:2 of the King James Bible. The verse reads, "And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer."
- Though this horseman isn't named, they are often called Conquest or Pestilence.
