I used my 967 hours in Borderlands to predict Borderlands 4's most busted builds

Last week I was: putting off playing Battlefield 2042 just to earn cool cosmetics in Battlefield 6.

This week I've been: planning builds for every single skill tree in Borderlands 4, hoping it would help me pick a character, but actually leaving me more conflicted.

I've played a lot of Borderlands over the years; Borderlands 2 is one of my most-played games of all time, and while Borderlands 3's story is naff, its gameplay is oh so good. Naturally, I feel like I've got to put all these hours spent to good use, and there's no better way to do that than to attempt to predict the Borderlands 4 meta.
