Borderlands 4 Aegon’s Dream Weapon Guide & Location
Aegon’s Dream is one of the most iconic legendary assault rifles in Borderlands 4. The name is a direct nod to George R.R. Martin’s series, making it one of the many pop culture weapons hidden in the game. Beyond the reference, this gun delivers huge damage with a unique elemental effect.
You can get Aegon’s Dream by farming Horace, Indomitus Sol’s spymaster. Horace is located in Horace’s Oversight within the Fadefields.
How to Get Aegon’s Dream
Defeat Horace at Horace’s Oversight. This is a main story location, so once you complete the mission tied to it, Horace’s boss marker will remain on the map for repeat farming.
You don’t need to clear every enemy on the way to the arena, but taking them out makes runs smoother. For faster farming, stick to the route directly to Horace’s marker.
Best Loadout for Farming Horace
Use a Maliwan Shock Shotgun with the Beam Cutter attachment. The triple-beam spread melts Horace’s shields in just a few hits. Once his shield breaks, switch to an Incendiary or Kinetic weapon and keep firing at his head.
Higher difficulty modes improve legendary drop chances, so crank up the setting if you want better odds.
What Aegon’s Dream Does
Aegon’s Dream is a Vladof assault rifle locked to Incendiary and Cryo elements. Its special perk, Prophetic, fires both damage types at once when the Double Barrel attachment is active. Normal fire alternates between Incendiary and Cryo shots, letting it shred both Flesh and Armor health bars.
Its weakness is shields, since neither Cryo nor Incendiary is effective against them. The flavor text reads “Finish the song!” as a playful jab at A Song of Ice and Fire remaining unfinished.
Final Blurb
Aegon’s Dream is a top-tier assault rifle in Borderlands 4 thanks to its hybrid Cryo and Incendiary fire. Farm Horace in Horace’s Oversight for your chance to get it, and bring Shock weapons to burn through his defenses quickly. If you’re a fan of both loot grinding and Game of Thrones references, this is a must-have legendary.
