Borderlands 4 is finally here, and players have spent nearly two weeks now discovering its most powerful vault hunter builds – builds that Gearbox assures won't actually be nerfed yet, as the developers instead focus on rolling out new buffs.
Creative director Graeme Timmins states as much in a new online post following circulating threads about so-called "broken" or "overpowered" Borderlands 4 builds – from Vex being dubbed "the strongest vault hunter in the entire series" to silly speedrunning strategies – and much to players' delight, such "unintended" ways of playing won't be targeted with nerfs right now. In fact, Timmins says Gearbox has some buffs up its sleeve.
