What is the Max Level in Borderlands 3?

Butt Stallion is only impressed by the highest level grinders!

With every new update, Borderlands 3 adds new content and mechanics or changes their old content and mechanics. Usually, this new content includes new areas, enemies, quests, vehicles, and many new legendaries to hunt for. The foes are usually much higher level than even the strongest players. In turn, they raise the max level for the players, so they have something to strive towards.

The latest DLC to Borderlands 3 capped the max level in the game at level 72. Although there have been several DLCs released since then, none of them have upgraded the level cap.

With the newest cap being Level 72, players have to their disposal 70 Skill Points. Maxing out one Skill Tree takes 26 Skill Points which, with quick math, you can max out two separate Skill Trees with Capstones. That leaves you 18 spare Skill Points. You can get to the middle part of the third tree, max out some of your favorite skills or just spend it on the two remaining Skill Trees.

That's all you need to know about the max level in Borderlands 3! Happy grinding!
