The loot drops in the latestBorderlandsspinoff,Tiny Tina’s Wonderlands, are some of the primary things that draw players from location to location, especially through the late-game. However, some players starting to dive into the endgame content are finding gear drops that are just out of reach of the standard requirements of even thebest Legendary Weapons inTiny Tina’s Wonderlands.
Several players have begun to share their experiences of these unequipable weapons inTiny Tina’s Wonderlandsacross social media, with a number of these post finding traction on the game’s subreddit. The results have players complaining about finding gear that can’t be equipped, as well as speculating on if developer Gearbox might be planning to update the game at a steadier pace than other games in its catalogue.

According to these reports from players, this endgame gear has been dropping with level requirements above the current level cap of 40 inTiny Tina’s Wonderlands. This means that no matter how much players continue to grind, they’ll never be able to equip any of the gear they are finding, since the requirements put them just beyond the limits the game allows. So, no matter how impressiveTiny Tina’s Wonderlands' strongest weaponsmight be, the players running into the over-leveled variants won’t be able to try them out for themselves.
Some players have taken this to be an annoying glitch, essentially dropping loot that can’t be used in the current build of the game that caps levels at 40. While some glitches can work in the players' favor, likeTiny Tina’s Wonderlands' infinite skeleton keys, this one is only causing frustration among the fan base. However, other players have begun to think that this gear dropping now could indicate that Gearbox is looking to increase the level cap faster than in previous titles from the developer.
At the moment, there’s nothing confirmed from Gearbox to point at DLC or live-service updates toTiny Tina’s Wonderlands, which makes it likely that these level 41 and higher drops aren’t intentional. From a technical point of view, it is likely that the system that spawns loot and randomizes its stats simply overlooked the level cap when choosing a requirement for the gear when it dropped. It’s an unfortunate oversight and a frustrating one for players as they run into it, but hopefully Gearbox will be able address this soon as the developerreworksTiny Tina’s Wonderlands' lootin future patches and updates.
Tiny Tina’s Wonderlandsis available now for PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S.
