How to farm Harlowe's Grace

Drops from: World drop in Anywhere endgame. Drop rate: 0.3-0.5% (community-reported).

At a sub-1% drop rate, expect a long farm. Most community runs report 60-150 boss kills before a confirmed drop. Set up a fast travel rotation and bring a reload-speed-focused build to keep the kill cadence up.

Strategy notes

When the shock element shines

Shock damage strips shields fastest in BL4 and chains to nearby targets via Harlowe's Voltage tree. Mediocre against fully fleshed-out raid bosses.

Vault Hunter pairing

The natural fit for Harlowe's Grace is Harlowe's Voltage tree. Stack the relevant capstone before farming the deeper raid tiers — the build planner at /builder/ lets you preview the synergy.

Build the rest of your loadout

A legendary smg like Harlowe's Grace earns its spot when the rest of your kit covers the gaps it leaves. Pair it with a longer-range crit weapon for ranged engagements. See our walkthroughs for boss-by-boss build recommendations.
