When you’re battling your way through Borderlands 4, sometimes it’s handy to have a shotgun on hand for those close-up encounters. Whether you use their devastating damage to deal a killing blow in a panic, or just prefer getting up close and personal, shotguns can be the difference between life and death.

Borderlands 4 Hot Slugger Legendary Shotgun

Here are all of the Legendary Shotguns you can find in Borderlands 4 and their effects. We’ve used YouTuber Lootward’s information to verify our own.

Legendary Shotgun Effect
Lead Balloon Lightweight - Projectiles float upward and spawn child projectiles upon exploding.
Linebacker Full Coverage - Bouncing projectiles increase damage by +25% and damage radius by +35% per bounce.
Husky Friend Husky Auto Turret - Fires out a gun turret in the shape of a rocket launcher which fires projectiles that explode upon impact.
Anarchy Mutalism - On auto-reload or kill, grants +15% damage and -15% accuracy for a maximum 20 stacks, which reset on manual reload.
Kaleidosplode Colorful Mess - Fires a slow-moving multi-colored orb with limited range that deals elemental damage.
Kickballer Force Bunt - Fires a large ball that curves off aim and bounces off surfaces. The bounces explode into the weapon’s element.
TK’s Wave Heirloom - Projectiles move in an oscillating wave.
Rainbow Vomit Color Spray - Shoots corrosive, radiation, and shock droplets.
Goremaster Chief Execution Officer - Deals +30% damage to enemies below 30% health.
Golden God Rage - When overheating, the bulletforge does not break, but instead continually consumes greater amounts of ammo.
Hellwalker Soothslayer - Fires a lot of bullets with very fast reload. A reference to DOOM, the weapon shoots in a pentagon and plays a DOOM-inspired guitar riff.
Hot Slugger Blazing Barrel - On kill, deal +30% damage for 10 seconds for a maximum of 3 stacks.
Convergence Asymptotic - On hit, bullets ricochet to another nearby target.
Bod All-Rounder - Counts as a shotgun, an assault rifle, a sniper rifle, a pistol, and an SMG.
Sweet Embrace Adoration - Fires in a square pattern. Recites affectionate voicelines, to say the least.
Acey May LUV - Unknown.
