Borderlands 4's Horny Shield Wasn't Supposed To Be That Horny, Actually
"With Borderlands 4 being a Borderlands game, you'll inevitably come across a piece a gear that just won't shut up. Borderlands 2 had The Bane, a unique submachine gun that screamed incessantly; meanwhile, Borderlands 3 had The Unkempt Harold, a legendary pistol that made illogically funny statements. Borderlands 4 is no different, with the legendary shield Cindershelly treating you like a sub to its dom. But, apparently, this armament wasn't supposed to bark smutty lines as often as Gearbox Software coded it to."
"As PC Gamer noted, some of the voice lines were especially raunchy. Cindershelly would say things like "Touch that barrel and scream for me" and "Don't stop till I allow it." The legendary shield would then keep going, telling you to "Show me how close you can get, worm," and "Worship me." Apparently, it got worse in combat, as these lines would trigger when doing or taking damage, which happens all the time in a Borderlands game."
Cindershelly is a legendary shield in Borderlands 4 that emits frequent, sexualized voice lines while equipped. An October 23 update reduced how often Cindershelly's voice lines trigger to make the shield less distracting. The shield voiced explicit taunts that could trigger while doing or taking damage, increasing interruption during combat. Cindershelly is manufactured by the Order and appears as a random loot drop, with higher chances from The Backhive in The Fadefields' Auger Mine in the Dissected Plateau. The shield provides damage reduction and releases an AOE damage blast on break based on Resolve stacks.
