How to Unlock Gone Are My Leggies Mission in Borderlands 4

To start the "Gone Are My Leggies" side mission, you'll need to travel to the Dissected Plateau region south of Wyclef's Reprieve Safehouse. Look for a character named Topper at Boglight Vigilance, who's situated at the steps of a distinctive lighthouse.

This mission becomes available after completing the main story mission "Wyclef's Last Stand" and reaching level 18. Topper will be visibly distressed about his missing legs, which kicks off this entertaining quest.

3. Pursue the Beastie to Idolator's Noose

After finding evidence at the lighthouse top, follow the Beastie's trail to Idolator's Noose. This area is filled with kratches (smaller creatures) that will attack on sight.

4. Defeat the Beastie and Retrieve the Legs

Engage the Beastie in its lair. This enemy is fast and will call for reinforcements. Use corrosive weapons for maximum effectiveness. After defeating it, collect Topper's legs.

5. Escort the Legs Back to Topper

The legs will autonomously follow you but need protection from enemies along the route. They'll provide combat support, occasionally kicking nearby enemies.
