A newly discovered Borderlands 4 glitch allows players to duplicate skill points and create fully maxed, game-breaking builds with ease. The exploit, first showcased by content creator JoltzDude139 and reported by GamesRadar, can be repeated indefinitely and essentially removes all build restrictions—something that could destabilize the game’s intended balance.
How the Skill Point Duplication Glitch Works
According to JoltzDude139’s breakdown, the glitch occurs during the skill respec and undo process. The steps involve:
Instead of refunding the single point spent, the system returns two points, incorrectly assuming more were invested. Players can repeat this cycle to accumulate effectively unlimited points, though the repetition is tedious.
Gearbox’s Response
Gearbox is already aware of the exploit. Creative director Graeme Timmins publicly responded to JoltzDude139 with, “We’re on it.” While no exact timeline is confirmed, the severity of the glitch suggests a fix will arrive soon.
Players watching for updates should keep an eye on Gearbox’s usual Thursday patch notes. If not resolved via hotfix, the issue may be patched by either the November 20 or November 27 update.
Impact and Community Expectations
The glitch has sparked mixed reactions among players. Some enjoy experimenting with overpowered builds—a hallmark of the Borderlands series—while others point out that this exploit bypasses build creativity entirely and breaks core progression systems.
Fans interested in trying the glitch will need to act quickly, since Gearbox is expected to remove it promptly to preserve game balance.
