Overview

The Hellwalker is a Legendary Jakobs Shotgun which drops from the unique enemy known as 'Saddleback' in the Terminus Range: Old Scrape Drill Site.

It shoots 10 projectiles in the formation of a pentagon with its firing pattern, akin to how it functioned in the previous game, Borderlands 3

Notes

The Hellwalker comes in the Fire element, a change implemented by Gearbox on the 25th September 2025, after fans delivered feedback about the gun only rolling in Kinetic damage.

Amon players may find it handy to utilize this weapon with his Bullet Hail skill, allowing it to send cryo elemental shards towards nearby enemies, giving it great synergy with his Vengeance tree.
