Borderlands 4 Vex Build

Although Borderlands 4 is a shooter, as part of the broader Borderlands series, it also boasts a comprehensive and exciting story. As Vault Hunters, you must journey to the planet Kairos to uncover its secrets while constantly fighting and growing stronger.

Thus, in addition to specific combat modes, you'll also need to complete multiple quests in the game to advance the story. Of course, completing them will also earn you rewards, such as different types of Borderlands 4 money or more powerful weapons.

With this in mind, this time we'll provide a walkthrough for Meat is Murder quest and the specific rewards it offers.

Where To Accept And Begin This Quest?

For Meat is Murder quest, everything begins on a farm. From there, you'll investigate a dangerous serial killer. To do this, you'll need to head to Harper's Hideaway in Fadefields region after completing the prerequisite quest, "Recruitment Drive."

This location is located northwest of Abandoned Outpost base, making it both remote and treacherous. Therefore, we recommend that you obtain sufficiently powerful gear and a vehicle before embarking on Meat is Murder quest.

Meat Is Murder Prequel

If you're ready, head to the designated location and clear the enemies inside and outside the barn. Then, look to the right of the barn entrance and destroy the beam blocking the door, then speak to NPC Byron inside.

Byron will tell you a long, tragic story about how his cousin was murdered. You must listen to the entire story and not skip ahead. He will then ask for your help in finding his cousin's murderer, marking the official start of Meat is Murder.

How To Complete This Quest?

This quest can be tricky because neither the system nor Byron will provide you with quest markers or additional hints. You must explore the barn to find the four objectives on your own. But don't worry, we've listed them for you:

• The ripper vehicle on the left side of the barn.
• The scoreboard in the southeast corner, to the left of the barn entrance.
• The dismembered body parts on the table in front of the meat grinder inside the barn.
• Animal carcasses at the barn entrance.

After finding four pieces of evidence at these locations, you'll need to interact with the radio on the table next to the dismembered body parts, which will lead to a monologue from the killer. Byron will then ask you to shut down the meat grinder and free his cousin's remains.

But when you try to shut down the machine, you'll discover it's malfunctioning. To do this, you'll need to head to the back of the barn and blow up the coolant regulator. To do this, follow these steps:

• 1. Exit the barn through the door to the right of the meat grinder.
• 2. Approach the coolant tank from either side.
• 3. Open the hatch and either shoot the coolant regulator or throw a grenade to destroy it.
• 4. Repeat on the other side.

After returning to the barn, you'll be able to free the remains of Byron's cousin Harper's body, but more Rippers will appear, requiring you to defeat them quickly.

Next, head to the tool shop in the heart of Fadefields, south of Fishing Spot point of interest. You'll find a wandering NPC outside the shop. Talking to him will help you restock your ammunition.

Find The Quest Boss Inside The Cave

After restocking your ammunition, continue north to Plungeford, a large Ripper encampment. Next, find the waterfall at the top of the settlement, where you'll find a cave.

Upon entering the cave, you'll first be greeted by many rippers. If you're short on XP, you can kill them to earn it, but otherwise, skip the battle to avoid wasting time.

After getting past the rippers, you'll find a man named Zeke in the cave. While he's not the actual killer of Harper, he's a loyal follower of the killer and the final boss of the quest. After defeating him, listen to the announcement during the scene to complete the quest.

What Rewards Are Available?

In addition to experience points, completing the quest will earn you two different in-game currencies: cash and Eridium, as well as a pistol of random rarity. The higher your level at which you complete the quest, the more EXP and currency you'll earn.

It's worth noting that some quests in Borderlands 4 can be farmed repeatedly for rewards, including Meat is Murder. To complete it again, follow these steps:

• 1. Open ECHO-4 menu.
• 2. Find Missions tab.
• 3. Select Meat is Murder in Re-playable Missions section.

How To Store Extra Gear?

Since your character's backpack has limited space in the game, it's generally recommended to find a bank machine and deposit any gear you already have in your backpack to avoid being stuck with a full backpack and unable to pick up new gear.

If you have multiple characters in your Borderlands 4 account, they can share the gear stored in the bank machine. Switch characters to view and claim the gear.

Also, it's recommended to store valuable gear only in the bank that you won't be using in the short term. Any useless gear can be sold for currency or other benefits. Currently available in-game bank machines are located at:

• The Launchpad
• Carcadia
• Belton's Bore
• Bones of Sanctuary

That's all for this update. Borderlands 4 has already been launched on September 12, 2025! If you're planning to play, these tips must be helpful!
