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

The Wombo Combo deals additional kinetic area damage from its Rip Rockets. Most ARs have only a single damage type. Since this weapon deals kinetic damage on top that caused by its regular ammo, it is good for crowd control. If you can stack fire rate and projectile buffs on the weapon, the Rip Rockets will trigger at shorter intervals, allowing you deal significantly more DPS.

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 aforementioned 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 involves any elemental damage type for primary shots combined with a high fire rate and large 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 large crowds of enemies because of the splash damage from its Rip Rockets. This weapon can be extremely versatile when fighting both bosses and mobs, especially when its primary damage is elemental and secondary is kinetic.
