Learn how to find and defeat Voraxis in Borderlands 4, with location details, attack patterns, and Legendary rewards.

Voraxis is a gigantic Thresher and one of the seven Auger Mine bosses in Borderlands 4. The boss is a terrifying adversary to face, sharking toward the player and burrowing to launch attacks from below ground. Nevertheless, defeating Voraxis is worth the trouble as it has a chance to drop three different Legendary items.
Borderlands 4: Voraxis Location

Voraxis is located at the end of the Timid Kyle’s Neglected Opening, an Abandoned Auger Mine on the south bank of the lake in Coastal Bonescape, Fadefields. To unlock Auger Mines as points of interest, you’ll have to complete the 11th main story mission, ‘Shadow of the Mountain.’ Fast travel to the Stockroom Order Silo if you have unlocked it and head directly west to reach Timid Kyle’s Neglected Opening. The mine’s entrance lies beyond a small lake.
How To Beat Voraxis Boss in Borderlands 4

- Voraxis’s weak spots are its eyes; aim for them when possible to land consistent critical hits.
- The boss relies on melee attacks for the majority of its damage. Maintaining your distance from it will make the fight much easier.
- Regular Threshers spawn during the fight to support Voraxis. Keep one of them alive at low health. If you get downed, shooting it will give you an easy Second Wind.
- Voraxis tunnels during the fight, with its body emerging in waves as it travels underground. Shoot its exposed sections to land free hits while creating distance.
Attack | Description | Counter |
---|---|---|
Lunging Bite | The boss rushes forward and swipes its jaws at the player | Dash to either side |
Corkscrew Strike | Voraxis tunnels and emerges while spinning its body in a vicious biting attack | Double jump over the attack or dash to the side |
Belching Flame | Voraxis launches several balls of fire toward the player | Sprint to either side |
