What is the Rare Spawn Hunt?

The Rare Spawn Hunt is the second bonus event that is part of Borderlands' anniversary celebration! Instead of rare spawns being well... rare.  They will show up every time at their designated spawn location! Not only that, they will have an increased chance to drop the unique legendary loot.

When Does it Start/End?

It starts on October 8th at 9:00 AM PDT and ends on October 15th at 8:59 AM PDT!

Rare Spawns & Drops List

Not every rare spawn is participating in this event. Most notably the Dinklebot spawn that drops Loot-o-Grams is not getting an 100% rate, which makes some sense because you would be able to farm him and collect a ton of the Loot-o-Grams. There are still quite a few rare spawns that are taking part, here's a list of them and what they can drop:

  • Rakkman – Night Flyer, Legendary Pistol
  • El Dragon Jr – Unleash the Dragon, Legendary Artifact
  • Road Dog – Redline, Legendary Shotgun
  • IndoTyrant – Random Customization
  • Force Troopers – Random Legendary class mods
  • Demoskaggon – Random Legendary Shield
  • The Unstoppable – Band of Sytorak, Legendary Shield
  • Thunk & Sloth – It's Piss, Legendary Grenade Mod
  • Maxitrillion – The Horizon, Legendary Shotgun
  • Borman Nates – Psycho Stabber, Legendary Pistol
  • Princess Tarantella II – Hive, Legendary Rocket Launcher
  • Mother of Grogans – Random Legendary Artifacts
  • Red Jabber – Random Legendary Grenade Mod
  • Urist McEnforcer – Masterwork Crossbow, Legendary Sniper Rifle

If you're trying to optimize your build, you might want to focus on Force Troopers, Demoskaggon, Mother of Grogans, and Red Jabber who are dropping randoms of specific item types!

Rare Spawn Locations List

If you want to take part in the Rare Spawn Hunt you will want to know where to find the rare spawns! Credit to Map Genie for the maps on most of these locations!

Rakkman

You can find Rakkman over on Pandora in Carnivora. Usually, you would need to look for the Rakkman Signal, but he will be a guaranteed spawn during the event.

El Dragon Jr

You'll find El Dragon Jr on Eden-6 at Jakobs Estates. He's pretty close to the starting fast travel station.

Road Dog

Road Dog can be found on Pandora in the Splinterlands. He's pretty much right in the middle of the map, so you won't have a fast travel station all that close.

IndoTyrant

The IndoTyrant can be found on Eden-6 in the Floodmooor Basin. He's on the east side of the map with the car ramps.

Force Troopers

You will find the Force Troopers on Promethea at Atlas HQ! They are pretty close to the fast travel station, and on the top floor of the courtyard area.

Demoskaggon

The Demoskaggon can be found on Pandora in the Droughts. It's directly north west of the fast travel station.

The Unstoppable

The Unstoppable can be found on Eden-6 in the Ambermire. The spawn is southwest of the fast travel location.

Thunk & Sloth

Thunk & Sloth spawn on Pandora in Konrad's Hold. The location is just west of the fast travel location.

Maxitrillion

Maxitrillion can be found on Eden-6 in the Voracious Canopy. You'll need to go to the ship where you fought the boss to locate him.

Borman Nates

Borman Nates can be found in the Merdiain Outskirts on Promethea. He's in the upper level of a structure that is very close to the fast travel location.

Princess Tarantella II

Princess Tarantella II can be found on Pandora in The Splinterlands. You can spawn in the southern fast travel point and find the large bug to the east.

Mother of Grogans

Mother of Grogans can be found on Eden-6 in The Anvil. You'll head up north a bit and then make your way west through the large sewer area.

Red Jabber

Red Jabber can be found on Eden-6 in the Ambermire. It's not too far from a fast travel point, you'll just need to head west!

Urist McEnforcer

Urist McEnforcer can be found on Promethea in Lectra City. He's down in the subways, so if you remember how-to get the One Pump Chump, you'll know how-to find him!
