While Horrors of Kairos might not introduce the most powerful loot in Borderlands 4, it absolutely nails the tone and fun of a seasonal event. The mix of spooky aesthetics, exclusive cosmetics, and themed enemies makes it a perfect Halloween distraction for Borderlands 4 Boosting both new and veteran Vault Hunters.

Even if the Murmur and Skully won't replace your top-tier Borderlands 4 Weapons, there's something rewarding about farming event bosses, collecting unique gear, and seeing the world of Pandora - or Kairos - drenched in eerie red rain.

So grab your best weapons, round up your co-op crew, and jump into the Horrors of Kairos before it disappears on November 6. The rewards might not redefine your build, but the memories (and screenshots of your pumpkin-headed Vault Hunter) will be worth the grind.

If you've been exploring The Pit in Borderlands 4, you've probably met the ever-charismatic Tipsy Olivia, the club owner trying to keep her scene alive amid all the chaos. After helping her secure a new band in the La-La-Last Call side mission, she's got another problem to solve - her club's out of booze. That's where the mission "Ain't No Sham in It" comes in. Having the right Borderlands 4 Weapons will help you.

This quest takes you out of the neon lights of The Pit and into the dusty wilderness of the Fadefields in search of a legendary moonshiner known as Ole Shammy. It's a fun, combat-filled journey that ties together several side characters and adds another layer to the world's colorful roster of outlaws and oddballs. Here's how to complete every step of Ain't No Sham in It, including where to go, who to find, and what you'll earn for your troubles.

Mission Overview

Quest Name: Ain't No Sham in It

Quest Giver: Tipsy Olivia (in The Pit)

Prerequisite: Complete La-La-Last Call

Location: The Pit → Fadefields

Rewards: XP, Cash, and Eridium

Once you've wrapped up La-La-Last Call and locked in the new band for Olivia's club, return to her behind the bar in The Pit. She's thrilled about the new tunes, but there's one more thing missing - drinks worthy of the music. She mentions an old friend who's been brewing up something special and asks you to track him down. That friend is none other than Ole Shammy, a familiar face if you've already played through the Hangover Helper side mission.

Step 1: Find Ole Shammy in the Fadefields

After accepting the mission, check your map for the new objective marker located deep in the Fadefields, toward the southern edge of the region. This is quite a hike from The Pit, so it's best to use any fast travel points or safe houses you've unlocked nearby.

If you've already claimed the Stockroom Silo fast travel point north of the objective, that's the most convenient route. Alternatively, you can use the Abandoned Post safe house, which also provides decent proximity to Shammy's last known location.

Once you arrive in the area, you'll spot Shammy's Shack, a small, rundown moonshine bar tucked into the sand-swept landscape. Inside, the place looks deserted - except for a glowing ECHO Log sitting on the counter. Interact with it to hear Shammy's recording, titled "A Maker's Mark" - a cheeky nod for longtime Borderlands fans.

In the log, Shammy explains that he's gone to a nearby farm to work on a new batch of his signature brew, experimenting with some "locally sourced ingredients." It's classic Shammy - half genius, half reckless adventurer. Naturally, it's up to you to go find him before his next batch of moonshine ends in disaster.

Step 2: Save Ole Shammy and Make the Offer

The farm mentioned in the ECHO recording is marked just a short distance south of Shammy's Shack. Hop into your vehicle and make your way there. When you arrive, it's clear that things haven't gone smoothly. You'll find Ole Shammy surrounded and under attack by an angry pack of Wildhorns and Trumpethorns - aggressive local wildlife that doesn't appreciate intruders.

Prepare for a tough but manageable fight. The Wildhorns tend to charge head-on, while the Trumpethorns spit corrosive projectiles from a distance. Area-of-effect weapons or shotguns work wonders for crowd control here.

Once the creatures are taken care of, approach Shammy to trigger a dialogue sequence. He's relieved to see you and quickly recognizes you from your previous adventures. When you tell him that Olivia wants him to supply his legendary moonshine for her club, he's overjoyed. Shammy can't resist the chance to get his name back into the nightlife scene of The Pit - and maybe earn a few Eridium tips while he's at it.

After confirming the deal, Shammy says he'll handle the deliveries himself. With that, your job is done - but Olivia will want to hear the good news.

Step 3: Return to Tipsy Olivia

Fast travel or drive back to The Pit, and make your way to the bar where Tipsy Olivia is waiting. When you speak to her, she's thrilled to hear that Shammy agreed to supply his signature drink. She laughs, raises a toast to your success, and remarks that with music and booze finally flowing, her club might just survive another week - and that "the Boss would be proud."

A short cutscene plays, showing the club lighting up again with life, laughter, and clinking glasses. The event marks another small victory in the struggle to buy Borderlands 4 Boost rebuild The Pit's nightlife scene amid the chaos of Kairos.
