Borderlands 4 Jelly Farm Guide & Location
Jelly is a legendary grenade ordnance in Borderlands 4 that spawns duplicates every time it bounces. The chaos makes it dangerous in tight spaces, but it can shred groups of enemies when used well. Knowing where to farm Jelly and how it works gives you a big advantage early on.
How to Get & Farm Jelly in Borderlands 4
Jelly drops from Splash Zone in Riptide Grotto. He appears during the story early on, but once unlocked you can farm him freely. The fastest method is to use the nearby Moxxi Encore machine to respawn him instead of save-quitting.
Encore costs scale with your level, but the farm is still quick. Drop rates feel low, but you can clear multiple runs in just a few minutes.
Jelly Legendary Grenade Stats and Effects
Jelly always has the Ripper part, which teleports grenades to the target location similar to Longbow from past games. Its red text reads “short for jellifer.”
The unique effect is Replicating. When Jelly bounces, it spawns duplicates that continue bouncing, dealing damage in a chaotic spread.
Cooldown: 7 seconds (at level 50)
Radius and damage scale with your level
Random element rolls: Corrosive, Fire, Cryo, or non-elemental
Random passive roll (example: cooldown reduction)
Guaranteed Ripper part for teleport throws
Best Uses for Jelly
Jelly shines in close-quarters fights where bounces are more likely to land multiple hits. It is great for mobbing early-game groups and pairs well with Ordnance-focused builds later.
Self-damage is the main drawback. The bouncing duplicates can ricochet back and hurt you if thrown carelessly. Using cover and aiming directly at enemies minimizes the risk.
Even on non-grenade builds, Jelly hits hard in early missions and can carry you through farming runs until stronger Ordnances drop.
