Creative leadership Borderlands 4, Grant Kao, announced that the infamous “critical knife” of the game would be “modified”.
“We'll edit it,” Kao says, responding to a user asking Gearbox to “solve” the problem with a critical knife. “The potential output of the critical knife reduces the Playstyle variety. It builds weapons that use a critical knife, have different options and will soon have more options.”
The strongest item in Borderlands 4
The “critical knife” is a throwing knife with the extension of Peter, enchantment that guarantees critical hits. This apartment is 100 % critical of the hit all others in the game, especially when paired with skills that intensify critical damage to intervention.
Borderlands 4 is a single player game, so there is no need to solve the balancing problems. However, when the building is so strong that you are your own character by watching alternative buildings, developers usually enter.
In fact, Omnitence of the critical knife destroyed some of the early Borderlands 4 theorists because players would announce that they had found a new broken figure on the character just to quickly show that it was another line -up that relied on the use of a penteter knife.
According to the creator of Borderlands Epicnng, a colleague TheoryCrafter for RAFA created a specific line -up where you could achieve 90 % critical chances, which is increasingly less than the Penetrator's knife, despite a full investment in a critical chance.
Balance of one player's game is always a questionable decision, but Penetrator knives are so strong that changing the gearbox that changes numbers could be the healthiest game. KAO also promised new assembly options, indicating that the gearbox is not completed and adds other tools for the players to experiment with.
Horrors of Kairos, a free content package, is scheduled for the release of 23 October. Borderlands 4 will then receive two rewards, one in November and one at the beginning of next year, after which it will release a story package called “Mad Ellie and The Vault of the Damned”.
Then Gearbox has two more rewards and another story package. Depending on how popular Borderlands 4 remains next year, even more content can be added after startup.
