I added shiny gold weapons into Borderlands 3…

The gold weapons in Borderlands 3 were a major letdown. They were more yellow than gold and lacked that flashy, reflective look. So, I took matters into my own hands and spent 4 hours tweaking the camos to make them truly shiny and in-your-face. Now, they look bougie and super upfront. If you're on PC, you can download the mod and experience the game in a whole new way. It's time to shine, baby!

The Disappointment of the "Gold" Weapons

Ever since Borderlands 3 launched, there has been a major issue with the game. The pre-order bonus for the game included a gold weapon pack, which seemed like an exciting addition. However, upon receiving it and diving into the game, it became apparent that the "gold" weapons were not truly gold at all. Rather, they appeared more yellow than gold, lacking the shiny, reflective quality that one would expect from gold weapons in a game. This was a letdown, as the gold weapons did not live up to the hype created by the pre-order bonus.

Challenging the Status Quo

I decided to tackle this issue and take matters into my own hands. After dedicating a significant amount of time to modifying the weapons, I was able to transform them into a true Shiny Gold, removing various elements such as wear, rust, and dirt, to achieve the desired look. It was a meticulous process, but ultimately, it paid off, and the weapons now exude the over-the-top, shiny, and reflective quality that I believe gold weapons should possess.

The Transformation Process

The Troublesome Road to Success

The process of modifying the weapons involved tinkering with the camos from the game, focusing on enhancing their appearance to reflect a true Shiny Gold. Although it was a time-consuming endeavor, the outcome was well worth the effort, as the weapons now boast a captivating and high-quality gold finish.

Aesthetic Appeal in the Game

Upon implementing these modifications, the gold weapons displayed a remarkable transformation in the game, standing out with their newfound brilliance and reflectivity. Their appearance was not only visually appealing but also aligned with the bold and extravagant nature of the pre-order bonus.

Embracing the Unconventional

Breaking Boundaries

Many may argue that such a modification does not conform to the art style of the game. However, this non-conformity serves as a strength, as it embodies the essence of a pre-order bonus that aims to offer a distinctive and exhilarating experience to players. Rather than blending seamlessly with the game's art style, the modified gold weapons deliver an unparalleled extravagance that truly sets them apart.

The Future of Weapon Skins

Looking ahead, there are numerous possibilities for further weapon skin modifications. I am open to exploring various ideas and concepts, aiming to bring more creativity and vibrancy to the game through visually captivating skins. As I continue to delve into the realm of weapon skin mods, I eagerly anticipate the opportunity to further enhance the gaming experience for Borderlands 3 enthusiasts.

Unlocking the Enhanced Experience

Accessing the Modification

For those interested in experiencing the enhanced gold weapons in their game, the modification is readily available for download on PC via Nexus Mods. The installation process is simple and user-friendly, allowing players to seamlessly integrate the modified skins into their gameplay, elevating their overall gaming experience.

A Nod to the PC Gaming Realm

It is worth noting that this modification is specifically tailored to PC users. As the gaming landscape continues to evolve, the prominence of PC gaming remains a prevailing reality, offering players unparalleled flexibility and opportunities to enhance their gaming experiences through various modifications.

Evolving with the Gaming Community

A Journey of Innovation

As the gaming world continues to evolve, the realm of modifications and enhancements embodies a spirit of perpetual innovation and boundless creativity. With each new endeavor, I am committed to pushing the boundaries and bringing forth captivating and transformative experiences for fellow gamers.

A Farewell and a Look to the Future

In concluding this exploration of gold weapon modifications in Borderlands 3, I extend my gratitude to all who have accompanied me on this journey. As we bid farewell to this undertaking, I am eagerly looking towards the future, brimming with new ideas and possibilities for further enhancements.
