How to Get the Ghostbusters Gun in Borderlands 4

By Ambar Jimenez | 2025-09-15 11:17:20
Calling all Vault Hunters and paranormal enthusiasts! Borderlands 4 delivers an incredible crossover event, allowing players to wield a piece of cinematic history. The Ohm I Got is a legendary Submachine Gun that faithfully recreates the iconic proton pack from Ghostbusters, and it’s as powerful as it is nostalgic. This guide will provide a complete walkthrough on how to find, farm, and master this must-have weapon.

Where to Farm the Ohm I Got SMG


Your hunt for this spectral SMG leads to the northern reaches of the Terminus Range’s Stoneblood Forest. Specifically, you must challenge the final boss of the Bittervein Auger Mine, a formidable foe named Bramblesong.
Important Prerequisite: The Auger Mines are locked until you progress through the main story. You must first complete the mission "Shadow of the Mountain," which becomes available after finishing "A Lot to Process." Only then will the path to Bittervein Auger Mine open.
Once unlocked, you can repeatedly farm Bramblesong by activating Moxxi's Big Encore feature after your initial victory. This allows you to fight the boss as many times as needed until the coveted Ohm I Got drops.
Pro Farming Tip: Bramblesong is a flying boss with two Flesh health bars, making Incendiary weapons highly effective for a quick takedown. Be warned: his loot can sometimes plummet off the cliff edge. Ensure your Lost Loot machine on Sanctuary is empty to safely claim any rewards that fall into the abyss.

Ohm I Got Stats and How It Works



The Ohm I Got isn't just a cool reference; it's a uniquely powerful weapon with a game-changing mechanic.


  • Manufacturer & Type: Legendary Submachine Gun
  • Element: Shock (Extremely effective against Shields)
  • Red Text: "Back off, man. I'm a scientist." – A direct quote from Dr. Peter Venkman.


Unique Effect: Energy Transfer

This is where the Ohm I Got truly shines. Its special legendary effect states:


  • When Energy Shield is active: The weapon consumes your shield energy instead of ammunition for each shot fired.
  • Damage Boost: While firing in this mode, you gain a massive +50% bonus damage.
  • Overshield Synergy: If you have an active Overshield, your primary Energy Shield will notdeplete, allowing for sustained high-damage fire without the ammo cost.


In practice, the weapon fires a continuous, crackling beam of energy (just like a proton stream) that will auto-target the nearest enemy. It’s aphenomenal tool for melting enemy shields and is perfect for builds that can rapidly regenerate shields or maintain a strong Overshield.

Is the Ohm I Got Right for Your Build?


This SMG is a top-tier choice for:


  • Moze: With skills focused on shield capacity and regeneration.
  • Any character with an Overshield-focused Action Skill.
  • Players who favor Shock-based builds for stripping enemy defenses.


However, it may be less ideal for close-range brawlers or characters whosebuilds rely on having a consistently full shield for other bonuses, asthe weapon actively drains it.


Start the farm, Vault Hunter! The Ohm I Got is a perfect blend of powerful Borderlands gameplay and beloved Ghostbusters fan service, making it a worthy addition to your arsenal.
