How to Extract Legendary Weapons in Arms Race DLC

One of the key parts to get these legendary weapons is to extract them from the Extraction Gear Outposts. They will look something like this on the map:

Go to these Extraction outposts and Extract the farmed weapon to find it in your inventory later on. If you do not extract it, you can end up losing the item entirely and probably wasting a run. So mark the Gear Extractors and always extract them after you are done.


We will be posting individual articles for some of these weapons, which we can find worth covering. So make sure you keep an eye out for such posts from us.

We will go over the in-depth stats for some of these weapons, their Quotables, and some tips to use them as well. Leave your thoughts down in the comments below, and we will see you soon with more Borderlands 3 content. until then, Adios!

  1. Hey I gotten some of the legendary weapons from the Arms Race and I extracted them so I can put them in my safe in Sanctuary but once I got to the end and extracted all my legendaries none of them were in my inventory what did I do wrong?????

    1. As far as I have checked the extraction process works fine for me. Maybe you are not noticing the entire process to get completed. Kindly let me know if there is a new bug because I have not played it after I finished the DLC

      1. Just for the reference of anyone else reading this, the extracted weapons appear in your stash, not your inventory or mail.

  2. I’m having an issue in arms race on xbox one where i extract legendary gear because i cannot equip it in arms race and when i find it again in a different run i am still unable to equip the same weapon/gear that i have already extracted.

    1. Give it a try with a different save file if you can get hold of one. Usually, once you extract the weapons, you can get them and use them freely after you finish a run.
