Choosing the Best Vault Hunter in Borderlands 4
So, Borderlands 4 is finally around the corner, and fans are already buzzing about one of the biggest questions—who’s the best Vault Hunter this time? The game is bringing four unique playable characters at launch, each with their own twist, skill trees, and action skills that can completely change how they play. And as always with Borderlands, it’s less about sticking to the “meta” and more about picking the character that fits your vibe—or honestly, just the one you think looks the coolest. Still, let’s break them down so you know what you’re getting into.
First up, Rafa, the Exo-Soldier. If raw gun damage is what you’re after, Rafa’s the powerhouse. His Overdrive ability lets him sprint into action and deal boosted damage with every weapon in his arsenal. His Remote Agent and People Person skill trees make him absolutely lethal—stacking crits, multipliers, and even infinite ammo setups if you build him right. The trade-off is that his gameplay leans heavily on firepower, so if you enjoy spraying bullets and watching enemies melt, Rafa is probably your guy.
Harlowe, the Gravitar, is a different beast altogether. She feels like a spiritual successor to the Sirens of past games, but with her own spin. Her trait, Entanglement, lets her link enemies together so damage spreads between them. That makes her deadly when clearing groups, and her three skill trees give her flexibility. She can focus on burst damage, mob control, or even support teammates by dropping energy fields that heal and shield allies. If you like versatility and want to shine in co-op, Harlowe’s a top pick.

Then there’s Vex, the new Siren in town, and her backstory is wild—she literally got her powers after surviving a disastrous Black Friday-style shopping event. Vex is all about elemental versatility. Thanks to her Phase Covenant trait, her melee and action skills automatically match the element of whatever gun she’s holding. That means she’s always adaptable. On top of that, she can summon minions, bring along her trusty companion Trouble, or unleash devastating blasts depending on the skill tree you choose. She feels like a great fit for players who want a mix of magic, pets, and elemental chaos.
Finally, Amon, the Forgeknight, is the tank of the group. He’s massive, Viking-like, and his whole kit revolves around creating elemental weapons—swords, axes, shields, even drones. He’s built to withstand punishment while smashing through enemies up close. His playstyle can be molded to lean into heavy melee, tanky defense, or all-out elemental destruction. If you want to play the unstoppable frontline bruiser, Amon’s got you covered.
Now, if we’re asking who’s the best , Rafa probably takes the crown for sheer firepower and efficiency. But Borderlands has never really been about sticking to one “right” choice. The fun is in experimenting, trying out builds, and seeing which Vault Hunter clicks with your style. And since Borderlands 4 finally lets you skip the campaign on alternate characters, it’s easier than ever to test them all out.
So the real answer? Pick the one that excites you the most. Whether it’s Rafa shredding with guns, Harlowe controlling the battlefield, Vex unleashing elemental chaos, or Amon smashing through with raw strength, Borderlands 4 gives you four seriously fun options to play with.
