Borderlands 4 Vex Skill Breakdown

No Borderlands game is complete without a Siren. Vex is a damage dealer who empowers enemies with her minions or her badass dark Siren powers. Still not convinced? Here’s everything gamers need to know about Borderlands 4 Vex.

Who Is Vex? (The Siren)

Bio: “Vex had a rough upbringing that was made more complicated by receiving her Siren powers. Her cynical and sarcastic demeanor comes from having to fend for herself and scrape for everything she’s got. But underneath her salty exterior, Vex is an empath who knows better than anyone how much life can suck. Ever the pessimist, Vex still believes in helping others. And if helping others means dealing damage to oppressive jerks, Vex will always be first in line.”

The Siren Skill Tree

The Fourth Seal 

Vex spawns a Phase Specter or Reaper Minion. The Reaper taunts enemies and deals melee attack damage. While immobile, the Specter deals gun damage. While losing health per second, their damage type matches Vex’s current attunement when spawned.

Capstone Abilities

• Heirloom -Specters gain a copy of Vex’s currently-equipped Gun for a Duration. Only one Specter can have a copied Gun at a time, and spawning a new Specter will remove the copied Gun from the previous Specter.
• Grim Reaper – Press and hold ability to spawn a Grim Reaper that drains nearby enemies, dealing Status Effect Damage over time, and regenerating Health for each drained enemy. When an enemy dies while being drained, there is a chance a new Reaper will be spawned.
• Dark Pact – Vex can now equip two Augments and gains the ability to use Dark Pact. Press and hold ability while a Minion is active to fully restore Health of all Phase Clones, as well as granting increased Movement Speed and Minion Attack Speed for a Duration. Phase Clones do not lose Health over time while Dark Pact is active, and Health loss is reset when Dark Pact ends.

Vexcalation

Vex creates a phase explosion, dealing damage to nearby enemies and fully restoring her health. While active, Vex can use Eldritch Blast, dealing damage to nearby enemies on impact. She also gains increased movement speed. Gun damage reduces Eldritch Blast cooldown.

Capstone Abilities

• Desecration – Phase Explosion and Eldritch Blast create Hazards, dealing Damage over time for a Duration. Eldritch Blast is now Homing. If it hits an airborne enemy, it bursts after a delay, dealing Damage to other nearby enemies.
• Vibe Check – Eldritch Blast is now a Charge Skill. Activating Eldritch Blast consumes all Charges to Ricochet on hitting an enemy. Will Ricochet once for each Charge consumed. Eldritch Blast’s Cooldown reduction from Gun Damage is doubled.
