Unpaler is a unique shield in Borderlands 3 manufactured by Pangolin. It is obtained from the mission On the Blood Path located in The Anvil, by siding with Holder.

Special Effects[]

Kind of tickles.

  • Returns shock damage if melee'd when shielded.
  • 2x Roid: +180% melee damage when depleted.

Usage & Description[]

The Unpaler is focused on melee builds, as it has a low capacity and a rather low recharge delay. Users should take advantage of the strong melee damage buff by constantly keeping their shield down.

The shield synergises with melee-focused weapons such as the Ripper and Face-puncher, and melee-focused characters such as Amara.

Notes[]

  • The Unpaler always spawns with a Brawler prefix.

Trivia[]

  • The name of Unpaler is a reference to Impaler, the legendary shield that focuses on returning damages when being attacked.
