“Probably the stupidest move ever” – 4 players without borders keep making devastating mistakes in legendary vending missions
Blog Andrew Joseph 25 Sep , 2025 0

Border 4 It's been out for two weeks now, which means players have a lot of knowledge about how the gearbox robbery shooter works. But, especially I keep seeing a task that is causing trouble for fans because they are not their own fault.
warn! Border spoilers 4 below:
The task in question is called the vendor of the row, IGN has useful walkthroughs If you want to know how everything works. In short, it involves a vending machine, which ultimately allows you to pick one from a large number of legendary weapons for only $1. You can only choose one weapon, and once you do, the machine will shut down permanently.
The problem is that when the player interacts with the vending machine at the end of the mission, he immediately sells all the garbage in stock and inadvertently disengages himself from the legendary project rewards. For some reason the game thought it was a deal and the vending machine was turned off, which left those soldiers empty-handed through many steps of the mission.
I began to notice the players who complained about this pursuit about a week ago, the subjects of the time, posts in discord and posts on social media expressed frustration and confusion about the situation. “Probably the stupidest move ever,” Announced as Redditor Iwasagummybear. “So I just finished my pursuit of the legendary vending machine for anyone who knows this, and in the end, you can buy something from it, yes? What is that? What should I do? We'll sell all the junk in stock right away because it thinks it's a deal, because it's a trading machine, so I'm trying nothing and I'm getting nothing about my efforts. Please be happy for my expenses.”
There are also many things that happened to 4 other unsuspecting border players.

For anyone playing the border 4… Don't absolutely not accidentally sell your trash to the vending machine at the end of the production line… Thanks to me later.

“PSA: Don't press the 'Sell Stolen' button on the legendary vending machine at the end of the sales of Line Quest,” another player warned. “Doing this is one of your uses and the machine will shut down, end the task. I'm definitely not instinct and I'm definitely doing it for testing so that no one will make such stupid mistakes….
Of course, you can't roll back in Borderless 4, so if you mess it up, you won't go back again. To make things worse, this line is an unrepeatable task. Also, it is worth noting that completing the sales of this line in the co-op will only allow one player to claim legend, and since the mission is non-repeatable, players who have not received the weapon will completely lock it in the mission. Bummer!
Honestly, the “OK Sales” task @Borderlands #Borderlands4 It made me angry a lot and I had to take a break. While playing in Coop, others sold to vending machines, which turned off both of us. Can't get LEGO. Quest says you can only buy it once. All work needs to be very exciting. Thanks

@GearBoxOfficial At least one library meeting, a pop-up warning popped up to make the task need to be completed, which requires an account of this behavior.

The question is whether this is done by the gearbox or the error, and if it is the latter, will the adjustment be made. Gearbox says it's been following feedback, so you want to think it's particularly aware of the situation with this task and we know the patch is in progress.
Indeed, it seems that the border area 4 is full of “unexpected interaction”. Players discover laminated buildings that cause huge damage, even the toughest bosses in the game. The most notorious of them is the “knife”. Which gearbox has been aware of, but has not yet. But there is Another would do the boss so quickly that it triggered a “full existence failure”.
