Tiny Tina's Wonderlands features a huge array of bosses for players to face as they journey across the wonderlands, and many of these enemies have improved chances to drop powerful legendary weaponry. This guide breaks down the special weapons that can be acquired from each boss.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is a first-person looter shooter by Gearbox Software and 2K that casts players as new participants in Tiny Tina's Bunkers & Badasses game. As the Fatemaker, players journey across the Wonderlands to loot, shoot, and battle a wide assortment of foes on their quest to defeat the Dragon Lord.
Main Bosses
Ribula
Ribula is the very first boss in Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, but despite this can drop an excellent piece of legendary loot. Ribula has increased odds of dropping the Feriore SMG Boreas Breath.
This legendary SMG always has the cryo element and, when thrown (as is standard for reloading Feriore weapons) creates deadly ice spikes with each and every bounce. Fitting for a weapon named after the Greek God of Cold North Winds and Winter, this SMG deals excellent elemental damage while freezing foes solid.
Banshee
The Banshee is fought in the Weepwild Dankness fairly early in Tiny Tina's Wonderlands, lashing out at the Fatemaker with her terrible sound-based attacks. She drops two legendary items, the first of which is Automagic.exe.
Automagic.exe is a Stoker pistol with a tremendous fire rate but poor accuracy, however, it can easily circumvent its limited accuracy with its unique secondary firing mode. The Automagic.exe can fire a tracking dart using its secondary fire (reminiscent of Atlus weaponry from Borderlands 3) which causes all future shots from the primary firing mode to home in on that dart, even striking foes behind cover or when they are behind the player.
The second legendary item the Banshee drops is the Wailing Banshee, a Valora melee weapon that creates homing projectiles behind the initial target which home in on other nearby foes. Each projectile deals 50% of the weapon's damage as weapon damage, providing a useful and consistent AOE attack.
LeChance
LeChance is fought at the end of the Wargtooth Shallows, and despite being a fairly easy boss, he has three legendary items to his name.
The first of these legendary items is the Cannonballer, a Torgue RPG. This weapon fires cannonballs that bounce around before exploding. The gun features two separate firing modes: impact mode fires a single cannonball, while multi-ball fires three cannonballs at once. The cannonballs explode early if they hit an enemy, and deal excellent damage.
The next legendary item dropped by LeChance is the Swordsplosion, a returning Torgue shotgun from Borderlands 2 (and Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep) that fires explosive swords when the trigger is pulled. Using its alt-fire mode causes fired blades to stick into foes and causes a giant spectral sword to erupt from under the foes when the gun is reloaded, detonating all the stuck swords at once while launching the enemy skyward.
Finally, LeChance can also drop the Peg Leg, a Bonk melee weapon that grants a 40% increase to reload speed and a 30% increase to movement speed for 10 seconds whenever it hits an enemy. This makes it a powerful utility weapon for any build, giving the Fatemaker a ton of extra speed.
Dry'l
Dry'l is a tough boss fought at The Godswell, with two phases and a deadly array of attacks. When bested, Dry'l has improved odds of dropping two different legendary weapons.
The first of these weapons is Dry'l's Fury, a Stoker sniper rifle that functions both as an ordinary sniper rifle, and as a deadly electrical weapon. The secondary fire launches an electrical orb that moves slowly and can be shot up to five times to cause electrical explosions and connect shock teslas to nearby foes.
The second weapon dropped by Dry'l is Storm Surge, a Valora melee weapon that inflicts a lightning status effect on impact. This status effect gives future attacks on a target a 25% chance to cause a lightning strike.
Wastard
Wastard is the boss fought at the end of Karnok's Wall, assailing the Fatemaker with spells and summoned minions. A dangerous foe with three phases, defeating the Wastard can potentially grant the player the legendary weapon known as White Rider.
White Rider is a Dahlia SMG that always has the poison element and fires a beam of energy when fired. This beam connects to a nearby foe and stays connected even if the player moves, dealing poison damage while it remains connected. The gun can also be set to a secondary fire mode named "Dual Beam" which causes a pair of beams to automatically connect to two nearby foes, dealing a slightly reduced amount of damage to both.
Knight Mare
Knight Mare awaits players at the end of the Ossu-gol Necropolis, acting as the penultimate boss of the main story. Fittingly, Knight Mare is a brutal encounter that strikes down its foes with electrical attacks and deadly sword attacks.
Knight Mare has increased chances of dropping Twin Soul, a Swift melee weapon that spawns with two different hilt modifiers, allowing it to come with two hilt effects instead of one. This means, for example, that it could spawn with Warrior (boosting damage reduction and melee damage whenever it lands a hit) and Amp'd (Boosting the damage dealt by the next gun attack(s) after landing a melee hit). This versatility makes the Twin Soul a very desirable weapon.
Dragon Lord
The Dragon Lord needs no introduction, being the main antagonist of Tiny Tina's Wonderlands. Fittingly, this deadly foe has increased odds of dropping two legendary weapons.
The first of these weapons is Apex, a Dahlia Pistol that heals the player whenever it deals damage and was also featured as a bonus for purchasers of the Next Level or Chaotic Great editions of the game. This gun also summons bats to attack the enemy being shot at and other nearby foes.
The second item the Dragon Lord can drop is a Valora melee weapon called Fatebreaker. This is a powerful weapon whose swings send out three lightning birds, dealing electrical damage to foes in their path. As an additional benefit, this weapon refills the player's ward as it deals damage to foes.
Optional Bosses (Side Missions)
Parasite
The Parasite is a boss fought at the end of the Tangledrift area, serving as the evil heart of the beanstalk. Besting this foe has a decent chance of rewarding players with the Wizard's Pipe legendary SMG.
The Wizard's Pipe is a Hyperius SMG that fires slow-moving elemental projectiles while also generating elemental orbs whose type changes based on the type of enemy the Fatemaker is facing. If facing fleshy foes they become fire, while skeletons cause it to create ice orbs instead, for example. This makes the Wizard's Pipe an astonishingly good weapon for exploiting enemy weakness and dealing tons of elemental damage in combat.
Vorcanar
Vorcanar is the final boss of the Slayer of Vorcanar questline in Mount Craw, a terrifying and definitely very real dragon god that attacks its enemies with fire breath and rotating flamethrowers.
Vorcanar has a higher chance of dropping the Manual Transmission, a Stoker assault rifle that has a unique "gear switching" mechanic. When firing the gun will eventually force the player to reload, even though it contains all bullets in one clip and therefore should not need to reload. When this happens, the ammo count will turn red and players can change firing mode to "upshift" the gun and increase its firing rate. This can be repeated multiple times to achieve truly ridiculous fire rates.
Optional Bosses (Chaos Chamber & DLC)
Chum
Chum is a deadly shark god fought at the end of Tiny Tina's Wonderlands' first DLC, "Coiled Captors." Besting this fishy foe has a higher chance of granting players the legendary weapon Delugeon.
Delugeon is a Stoker RPG that fires water missiles. These missiles are unique as they apply the soaked status effect, causing targets to take increased damage from electricity and ice, but reduced damage from fire. Additionally, the gun can be shifted to alt-fire mode to make use of the under-barrel, which shoots lightning twisters.
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands is available for PC, Playstation 4, Playstation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
