Feeling lucky? Hi everyone, I’m Tommy Westerman, Senior Character Designer on Borderlands 4. Today, I’m thrilled to share insights into the making of C4sh the Rogue, the new playable Vault Hunter coming to Borderlands 4 as part of Story Pack 1: Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned* on March 26!

Beating the odds When it comes to C4sh’s backstory, he’s a former CasinoBot with a new lease on life. After a long streak of gaming the solar system’s casinos and battlefields with statistical insights, he developed a taste for the unpredictable after winning the magical Deck of Kanansi in a high-stakes game. Now that he’s seeking out more lucrative, dangerous risks, a career in Vault hunting is the perfect way to bet on himself in the biggest way possible.

Heart of the cards (and dice and guns) C4sh’s penchant for unpredictability is epitomized by his Action Skills and skill trees. Giving C4sh dice (Cleromancy Action Skill / Roll the Bones skill tree) and a deck of cards (Sleight of Hand Action Skill / Luck of the Draw skill tree) seemed perfect for players who love randomness, while his dual revolvers (Cross-Fire / Chaos Walking skill tree) felt right for the promise of a Wild West-style gambler.

No matter the outcome, C4sh’s Action Skills are always powerful, but with luck you can trigger some super powerful effects. His skill trees are unique in that they don’t feature any Capstones, but all three of his trees offer a skill that grants an additional Augment slot. By building across all three skill trees, you can give C4sh’s up to four Augments total. Managing how many Augments you equip gives you more control over the degree of randomness for his Action Skills.

One fun thing we always try to do with Borderlands’ DLC characters is break some rules. BL2’s Gaige introduced stacks and Krieg turned the entire idea of FPS combat on its head; Pre-Sequel’s Aurelia begged to be played in co-op. After Claptrap, even though some of us really liked him, we all kind of looked at each other and said, “Well, let’s never do that again.” C4sh broke that rule, and I love him for it.

You’ll be able to play as C4sh the Rogue across all of Borderlands 4’s story and zones by owning Story Pack 1, which is included in Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition. We can’t wait to see how you come up with builds that make the most of his chance-based abilities, and remember: there’s no telling what the next card draw or dice roll will bring.

*Mad Ellie and the Vault of the Damned is the first of two post-launch DLC Story Packs coming to Borderlands 4. This content is included with Borderlands 4 Super Deluxe Edition and the Borderlands 4 Vault Hunter Pack, and is also available for separate purchase. Base game required.
