Now, he seeks to destroy those he once revered, wielding a brutal mix of melee combat and elemental powers. Towering and armored, he wields twin axes or a massive hammer, making him Borderlands 4\u2019s quintessential melee juggernaut.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ql-direction-ltr ql-long-97846586\" data-header=\"3\" data-foldable=\"true\"><strong class=\"ql-author-97846586\">Combat Style:<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p class=\"ql-direction-ltr ql-long-97846586\"><span class=\"ql-author-97846586\"> Built for frontline chaos, Amon can block attacks with his shield and unleash devastating elemental strikes.
