This Borderlands 3 Zane Build is focused on exploding your enemies together with your clone. The build is based around Rocket Launchers, and shooting them all around, including under your feet for various purposes. You can find this Borderlands 3 Zane Build Save File at the bottom of the article.

Important! All the items are perfect rolls. If you do not want to download the file, you can just gather inspiration for the build and try to replicate something similar in the game. The build contains gear from all the DLCs to Borderlands 3.

Borderlands 3 Zane Build Explanation

The Borderlands 3 Zane Build uses 100% resistances to certain elements. By using either The Transformer [for shock resistance] or Red Suit [for radiation resistance], we can shoot these elements without worrying about applying Damage Over Time on ourselves. Furthermore, we are using Duck Tape Mod which with 1 point into the skill gives us 100% Splash Damage resistance from our own weapons. With that in mind, we can just run around and shoot enemies with our Rocket Launchers and do not worry about going into Fight For Your Life.

Since we are using only one weapon type with Rocket Launcher, the biggest downside to that is running out of ammo. To prevent that, we are either using a special artifact Cutpurse Launch Pad or shooting onto our feet while wearing The Transformer shield.

The first method is quite simple. If you have low ammo, or are running out of it, just place this artifact on and then execute a slam. It will launch homing rockets onto enemies that will replenish your ammo.

The second option is only possible in the Shock variant of the build. The Transformer has a high chance of absorbing ammo as ammunition. If enemies are shooting you or you are shooting at your feet, there is a chance that ammo will be restored to your inventory.

In this Borderlands 3, Zane Build, you are also going to be using Digi-Clone as your Action Skill. Using red tree Capstone you will give your clone a copy of your currently held weapon. So double the damage!
