The upcoming Borderlands 4 introduces Vex as its newest playable Siren, bringing a fresh combat style that blends necromantic summoning with ranger-like precision. Developers at Gearbox Software have revealed exciting details about her distinctive skill set that promises to revolutionize Siren gameplay.

Borderlands 4

Breaking from tradition, Vex combines elements of dark magic with tactical ranged combat. Her three signature abilities - Phase Phamiliar, Incarnate, and Dead Ringer - offer players unprecedented flexibility in approaching battles across the chaotic landscapes of Pandora and beyond.

Phase Phamiliar: The Spectral Panther Companion

Vex's first action skill summons Trouble, a panther-like spectral companion that evolves during combat. When fully upgraded, Trouble gains:

  • 20% increased critical hit chance
  • Badass transformation (Big Trouble)
  • Damage absorption capabilities
  • Teleportation attacks

Incarnate: The Winged Revenant Form

This transformative ability grants Vex:

  • Full health regeneration on activation
  • Spectral wings for enhanced mobility
  • Soul Orb projectile attacks
  • Optional Geistwave energy blasts
  • Life Steal modifications through skill trees

Dead Ringer: Phantom Duplicates

Vex's ultimate skill creates two types of clones:

  1. Specters: Stationary ranged attackers
  2. Reapers: Mobile melee fighters with taunt abilities

    This duality allows for both defensive setups and aggressive pushes, adapting to any combat situation.
