The Borderlands and Destiny franchises both have a lot in common. From explosive FPS gameplay to loot-driven, cooperative grinding, there\u2019s no denying that the games overlap. Paying homage to Bungie\u2019s ever-expanding universe, Borderlands 3 developers Gearbox, recently hid a new Legendary weapon in the game that amusingly mimics the Bad Juju Exotic pulse rifle. Hilariously titled the \u2018Good Juju,\u2019 this new Legendary rifle boasts remarkable accuracy when firing from the hip and comes equipped with a powerful perk that made the original Destiny counterpart so popular. Upon each and every kill the weapon will automatically refill its magazine allowing you to continue firing without the need for a lengthy reload animation. The Borderlands 3 weapon even mocks the flavor text of the original Destiny Exotic. \u201cKinda, sorta wants to end all existence,\u201d the Legendary description reads in the 2019 looter-shooter, similar to the text that accompanied the Bad Juju which states: \u201cIf you believe your weapon wants to end all existence, then so it will.\u201d Furthermore, even the visual style of the weapon has been translated over to Borderlands 3 in that the grotesque remains of a slain alien adorn the rifle of the new Legendary. In order to claim this new Legendary rifle for yourself, you\u2019ll have to make sure you\u2019re well-equipped for a serious challenge. Earning the weapon is no easy feat as it can only be farmed from \u2018The Rampager\u2019 boss on Mayhem Mode 4, the most intense difficulty modifier in the endgame. There\u2019s a chance that you might get lucky and have the Legendary drop in your first run-through, however just like many other \u2018grindable\u2019 items in the game, it could take hours of repetition to finally get the drop you\u2019re after. Additionally, it appears as though there are numerous variations to the weapon itself in the form of elemental differences, so there\u2019s plenty of reason to grind for the perfect stat roll to complement your ideal character build. While Legendaries have become much more difficult to farm since Borderlands 3 was released, this new drop should provide a unique, repeatable challenge for dedicated players to get sunk into. Perhaps is this is just the beginning of many amusing Destiny crossovers yet to come. It\u2019s safe to assume that the controversial Gjallarhorn Exotic for instance, would be a neat addition to essentially any first-person shooter on the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Borderlands 3 pays homage to Destiny Exotic with exciting new weapon A popular Exotic pulse rifle from Destiny has provided a framework for a brand new Legendary weapon in Borderlands 3.
