Super Soldier is a legendary energy shield in Borderlands 4 manufactured by Daedalus. It is obtained randomly from any suitable loot source, but has an increased chance to drop from Vile Lictor located in Umbral Foundry in Terminus Range.

Special Weapon Effects[]

I'll never forget the adventures we had.

  • Power Play – When Energy Shield fills, grants an Overshield. When Energy Shield is full, grants 25% Fire Rate, 25% Movement Speed, and regenerates Ammo.

Prefixes[]

Super Soldier comes in several variants with 1-2 different modifiers depending on its prefixes. There are three tiers of prefixes: low, high, and exclusive. The shield will either spawn with one low-tier and one high-tier modifier (with the high-tier prefix being listed first), or it will spawn with an exclusive modifier, which takes up both modifier slots and affords an even greater bonus than high-tier modifiers.
