Seraph (sometimes referred to as pink) is an item rarity first released with Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty. Seraph items seem to be somewhere between unique and legendary items, with impressive stats but with some form of drawback such as low accuracy or projectile speed.
Acquisition
Borderlands 2 DLCs introduced the following Seraph guardians:
- Hyperius the Invincible and Master Gee the Invincible, from Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty;
- Pete the Invincible/Ultra Invincible, from Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage;
- Voracidous the Invincible, from Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt;
- The Ancient Dragons of Destruction from Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep.
In Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode, upon defeat Seraph guardians always drop Seraph crystals, similar in shape to crystalisk nuggets but Pink in colour. These crystals are the currency used to purchase Seraph items from the Seraph Vendors in the town of Oasis, the Badass Crater of Badassitude, inside the Aegrus Sophisticates' Lodge in Hunter's Grotto and in Flamerock Refuge.
Seraph Guardians also directly drop Seraph items that are not available at Seraph Vendors in Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode. All Seraph items are still available at their respective vendors in True Vault Hunter Mode and Normal mode.
Seraph items
Seraph weapons, shields and grenade mods cost 120 Seraph crystals each. Relics only cost 50 crystals. As reference, each Seraph guardian drops on average 10 crystals per kill.

Notes
- DLCs are supposed to be self-contained modules to the base game, so Seraph items in one DLC will not be for sale in another DLC Seraph vendors, nor droppable from Seraph guardian in another DLC. Players cannot use Seraph items associated with a DLC until that DLC has been purchased. The common currency, however, is still Seraph Crystal.
