Borderlands 4 Trickshot Review — ファームウェア
| Type | ファームウェア |
|---|---|
| Drop source | Randomly applied to gear (Shield / Ordnance / Class MOD / Enhancement / Repair Kit) of level 25 or higher |
This review was machine-translated from the Japanese original. Numbers are checked against the original; if the wording reads oddly, the Japanese version is authoritative.
Bullets return on critical, sustained combat power-type critical set.
Full (3 pieces) Effect
Critical at 50% replenishes 1 bullet
- Effectively extends the magazine, increasing the time you can keep firing
- The more a weapon reliably hits weak points, the more the replenishment cycles
- Fewer reloads = does not synergize with reload‑based Oscar Mike
When combined with Deadeye that stacks critical damage, it becomes a consistent critical build of “hit → stack → bullet returns”.
How many are needed to activate?
Firmware changes its effect in stages depending on how many of the same set you have equipped.
| Tier | Required | Effect of Trickshot |
|---|---|---|
| Minor | 1 piece | (unverified) |
| Major | 2 pieces | (unverified) |
| Full | 3 pieces | Critical at 50% replenishes 1 bullet |
The exact values for Minor / Major are unverified. Minor (1 piece) and Major (2 pieces) provide set‑specific constant increases, and there is no reliable public source listing the exact values for all 21 sets. This page will be updated as soon as they are confirmed on actual hardware.
How to arrange the 5 slots (3+2)
Firmware can be attached to the five slots other than weapons—Shield / Ordnance / Class MOD / Enhancement / Repair Kit. The maximum configuration is one set of 3 pieces (Full) + a separate set of 2 pieces (Major) for a “3+2”, and you cannot stack two Full sets simultaneously.
If you place Trickshot on the Full side, choose a set for the remaining two slots that provides constant increases you actually use in your build. If the values on the 2‑piece side are dead, it effectively works only for three slots.
Acquisition & Swapping
- It appears randomly on gear level 25 or higher (not on weapons).
- Since the stats within the same set are considered identical across instances, there is no need to farm for a perfect piece (observed on hardware; comprehensive verification of all 21 sets is ongoing).
- Gear can be transferred between items using the Transfer Machine. Transfer is only possible between the same gear type, regardless of item level or rarity. The donor gear is destroyed, and the transfer locks after one use.

FAQ
What is the Full (3) effect of Trickshot?
It restores one ammo on a 50% critical. It activates when you equip three pieces of gear with Firmware attached to the same Trickshot.
What builds is Trickshot used in?
It is a set suited for critical‑focused builds that keep firing on crits. Place it on the Full (3) side, or aim for constant scaling by putting two on the Major side.
Is the Japanese name of Trickshot the official notation?
Yes. The in‑game Japanese name has been verified on hardware (2026-09-21). The English name is Trickshot.
