Background

The Merrif, being forced by Colonel Zarpedon to surrender to the Lost Legion, agreed to support with a jamming signal that disables Helios' defenses. The override signal is protected by Red and Belly, leaders of their own scav gang.

Involvement

After gaining access to Crisis Scar by deceiving SC4V-TP, the Vault Hunters head there to take out the jamming signal. Red and Belly quickly figure out the ruse and order their men to attack, continuing to challenge them on their way there before confronting them physically. With them killed, the Vault Hunters manage to disable the jamming signal, and The Meriff, unaware of their deaths, contact them, therby blowing his cover.

Notes

  • RedBelly may drop these items at the following chances:

  • RedBelly cannot be frozen until they split, after which only Belly is vulnerable.

Trivia

  • The name and appearance of RedBelly are a reference to the Australian bushranger Ned Kelly.
    • There is a discussion on an ECHO recording about Belly's missing leg armor and Red's critical hit area, which are a reference to how Ned Kelly was taken down with shots to his hip and thigh.
  • The name RedBelly and the Black Snake SMG are also references to the Australian Snake, the Red-bellied black snake.
  • An ECHO recorder found in the area implies that Red and Belly have been deputized by the Meriff, as they are now on "this side of the law."
