Borderlands 4 just got a smaller patch with some tweaks and adjustments to gear, but be warned – the looter shooter's creative director has given us our "seven days notice" that those completely broken builds are seemingly about to be banished.
Last month, creative director Graeme Timmins acknowledged that developer Gearbox had "seen the discourse about builds that use unintended interactions and/or the knife," but at that time, dealing with them wasn't the focus, with more buffs on the table instead. However, as the game's first major patch rolled out, Gearbox confirmed that it was planning fixes for these things since the "exploits prevent us from creating meaningful build diversity as they trivialize content that is otherwise meant to challenge players," and it sounds like these changes are almost ready.
