Borderlands 4 Harlowe Skill Breakdown

Publish Date: September 7, 2025

Can’t decide who to play as in Borderlands 4? Harlowe, also known as The Gravitar, is a Mailiwan combat scientist who relies heavily on her technology while in battle. Whether it’s with her flux generator, HALO Accelerator, or her CHROMA Accelerator, Harlowe can dish out heavy area damage. Still not convinced? Here’s everything gamers need to know about Borderlands 4 Harlowe.

Who Is Harlowe? (The Gravitar)

Bio: “Harlowe is a former Maliwan combat scientist, driven by the need to understand how things work. While this initially made her an outcast amongst her Traunt relatives, Harlowe has used her intellect to bring new tech and gadgetry to the battlefield as a Vault Hunter. Harlowe’s brilliance is apparent in everything she does, but so is her enthusiasm and love for life. Harlowe brings everything to the fight, including her sunny disposition. Always ready to give a beat down, her spirit can’t be beat.”

The Gravitar Skill Tree

Creative Burst

Using her CHROMA Accelerator, Harlowe fires an unstable energy pocket that passes through enemies while dealing cryo damage. Pressing the action skill will explode the unstable energy pocket and deal heavy radiation damage in a large area.

Capstone Abilities

  • The Shattering Light – CHROMA Accelerator gains Charges as Harlowe keeps it readied for the Duration of CHROMA Accelerator or until all Charges are used. Holding the Action Skill ends The Shattering Light early and refunds a portion of the Cooldown for every Charge remaining.
  • Demon Core – As Harlowe’s Unstable Energy Pocket travels, it shoots Radiation Darts at enemies. Whenever Harlowe Entangles an enemy while her Action Skill is active, automatically Irradiate that enemy.
  • QBall – Harlowe’s Unstable Energy Pocket bounces as it travels and can no longer be manually detonated. Each time it bounces, it creates a Radiation Explosion. Whenever it strikes an enemy, it changes direction and bounces towards another enemy.

Seize The Day

Harlowe uses her HALO Accelerator to place an enemy in stasis for a duration. If any enemies are immune to the stasis, they will take damage instead. Using the ability again will cause the enemy in stasis to be slammed into the ground, creating a small explosion.

Capstone Abilities

  • Falling Bodies – Pressing Action Skill places an additional enemy in Stasis at the cost of Action Skill Duration. When Stasis ends, automatically slam all enemies straight down.
  • Cold Plunge – Whenever Harlowe Slams an enemy, create a Singularity on that enemy, followed by a Cryo Explosion.
  • Ground State – Every time Harlowe Slams an enemy, gain increased Slam Damage and Slam Damage Radius. Enemies in Stasis take Decreased Damage. Press Action Skill to Slam all enemies in Stasis straight down.

Cosmic Brilliance

Harlowe throws her flux generator in front of her, and in turn, it projects an energy field. The energy field deals cryo damage over time, entangling enemies. Any allies who are caught inside the energy field won’t be damaged but instead will gain overshield. If players use the ability again, they can pick up the flux generator and toss it again.

Capstone Ability

  • Potential Transference – Whenever Harlowe relocates her Flux Generator, it teleports to a location in her crosshairs, consuming a Charge and creating a Shock Burst that deals Shock Damage to enemies inside it, grants a free Second Wind to allies, and Heals allies within the Flux Generator.
  • Violent Horizon – Harlowe’s Flux Generator occasionally shoots Radiation Projectiles at nearby enemies outside of its radius. If these Projectiles Irradiate an enemy, the Flux Generator then drags them within its radius. Harlowe’s Flux Generator creates a Singularity burst on retrigger that drags in nearby enemies and increases Action Skill Power.
  • Group Study – Harlowe spawns a HALO Sidekick for each ally instead of her Flux Generator. HALO Sidekicks automatically fly to each ally and hover near them, granting increased Gun Damage, Fire Rate, and Reload Speed. On retrigger, Overload Harlowe’s HALO Sidekicks to increase their effects. This effect stacks. While Overloaded, Harlowe’s Action Skill Duration drains faster.
