As mentioned earlier, you can replay the boss fight in the game and also collect the drops from the loot pool. To do so, the game features an option known as Moxxi’s Big Encore machine, which you can use after defeating an enemy in the game. Although the machine allows you to reset the boss encounter unlimited times, you need to pay for every new fight.

That means you can fight a boss as many times as you like, as long as you have enough money to pay for it at Moxxi’s machine. Additionally, the enemy does not need to be part of the main mission. It can also come from side missions, contracts, mine encounters, or other types of content.

The main reason to reset the boss fights using Moxxi’s Big Encore machine is to farm a boss. Since Borderlands 4 features a wide variety of legendary weapons, they do not drop on your first victory over the enemy.

That way, you can use the tips, information, and strategy from your previous encounter to defeat the enemy more easily and collect rewards and experience points. In addition, Moxxi’s machine also features a Weekly Big Encore boss, which you can beat to earn special and powerful items. That was all about the boss fights in Borderlands 4.
