Borderlands 4: How to get Wombo Combo legendary AR

The Wombo Combo AR is one of the coolest weapons in Borderlands 4. Manufactured by Vladof, it has amazing crowd-control capability thanks to its unique ability - the Wombo Combo AR launches a Rip Rocket after every five shots fired. Rip Rockets deal kinetic damage to enemies, completely ignoring the gun’s damage type.

In this guide, we explain how to get the Wombo Combo assault rifle in Borderlands 4.

How to get the Wombo Combo Legendary AR in Borderlands 4

The Wombo Combo deals additional kinetic area damage from its Rip Rockets along with its regular ammunition. Most ARs have only a single damage type. Thus, the gun allows for better crowd control. If you can stack fire rate and projectile buffs over the weapon, Rip Rockets will trigger at shorter durations, dealing significantly more DPS.

Drop locations

The Wombo Combo AR is a world-drop legendary item that sometimes drops from a specific boss in the area, meaning it can drop from random sources like loot chests, random world enemies, and vendors. But there's a method to target-farm the Wombo Combo Legendary AR in Borderlands 4. Here’s how:

• The AR has a high chance to drop from the Ruined Sumplands area.
• Hunt down Rippa Roadbirds in the Saw’s Clench, for they have a higher chance of dropping the Wombo Combo.

Rippa Roadbirds farming route

• Head toward Saw’s Clench by fast traveling to the Ruined Sumpands area.
• Rippa Roadbirds will spawn in this area; clear them out.
• Reset the area by fast travelling back and forth to the Ruined Sumplands.
• Replay the area till you get the Wombo Combo AR.

The Legendary Wonbo Combo has a high drop chance from one of the bosses in the Moxxi’s Big Encore Machine in the Saw’s Clench area. Activate the machine and fight with the trio Baby Grunt, Gruntabulous Vork, and Lil’ Grunt.

The drop is rare and may offer two Wombo Combo Legendary ARs at the same time.

Other potential sources

• Vendors (extremely rare)
• Boss loot pool (Carcadia Burn area)
• Reward Chests (Side quests and activities)

Since the Wombo Combo Legendary AR is tied to the world-drop loot pool, it could come from any of the above-mentioned sources, although targeting Rippa Roadbirds is the best way to acquire it quickly.

Best stat roll for the Wombo Combo AR

A good roll for the Wombo Combo AR is a combination of any elemental damage type for primary shots with a high fire rate and magazine size. This could turn the already powerful weapon into an epic one.

• Look for elemental rolls for the primary shots of the Wombo Combo, like Fire, Shock, or Cold.
• For stats, priority should be a high rate of fire and magazine size to trigger its secondary ability more often.

The Wombo Combo performs best against a large crowd of enemies with the splash damage from its Rip Rockets. This weapon is extremely versatile in taking out both bosses and mobs, especially when its primary is elemental and secondary is kinetic.
