Locate and equip the rage-filled, powerhouse, Golden God Legendary Shotgun in Borderlands and be a force to reckon with.

The Golden God Legendary Shotgun in Borderlands 4 is manufactured by Ripper. This weapon can dish out a lot of damage at a rapid rate. Its special effect plays a huge role in this. Some extra enhancements, such as Children of the Vault, will help reduce the depletion of balance ammo, helping you maximise the potential of the shotgun.
In this article, we will look at how to find and collect the Golden God Legendary Shotgun in Borderlands 4.
Golden God Legendary Shotgun Overview in Borderlands 4

To acquire the Golden God Legendary Shotgun, one of the more guaranteed methods would be to encounter the Idolator Sol boss battle. You will locate this boss at Fortress Indomita at Idolator’s Noose in the region of Fadefields. This boss fight is part of a main story mission, ‘Rush The Gate’. As soon as you defeat the boss, he will drop one of seven different legendary weapons.
If you do not see the weapon you want, you can use Moxxi’s Big Encore Machine to replay the battle and try your luck at getting the Golden God Shotgun. Aside from that, you can also try and loot various sources such as the red or golden key chests. Sometimes, other bosses may also drop random legendary guns.

Golden God Legendary Shotgun Details

One thing to note about the Golden God Legendary Shotgun is that when you swap away from it when it is in an overheated state, the ammo consumption is permanently set to an increased rate. This will stick even when the gun returns to its normal state. The effect will not revert until and unless you remove the weapon from the weapon wheel and re-add it.
