Best Multiclass Combos - Tiny Tina's Wonderlands Guide - IGN (2024)

For the first time in Borderlands franchise history, Tiny Tina's Wonderlands allows you to play two classes simultaneously. Opening up more playstyles than ever before, below you'll find some of the best combinations to maximize your capabilities.

What Class Combination Should You Choose?

Whilst most combinations are viable so long as you have a good weaponry/gear loadout, there are clear synergies between certain classes that can be capitalized on, playstyle dependent.

When the option to choose your secondary class becomes available partway into the game, consider carefully. You won't be able to switch for the rest of the game. In the post-game however, you can head to the Quick Change Station in Brighthoof and swap it out to your heart's content, so experiment away at that stage.

WildFire - Spore Warden/Clawbringer

Spore Warden and their Mushroom companion naturally have a penchant for poison damage, particularly with skills like Spore Cloud. Their Blizzard Action Skill enables them to create Frost Cyclones that control the battlefield. The Clawbringer on the other hand has the Cleansing Flames Action Skill that creates Fire Novas, and their Wyvern companion also breathes fire. Their alternate Action Skill, Storm Dragon's Judgment, deals hefty Lightning damage.

For those keeping track, this combo subsequently enables you to cover 4 of the 5 damage types with just your Action Skills alone; throw weapons in the mix and you've got a potent combination. If you incorporate a Dark Magic Spell in your arsenal, you have access to all damage types from very early in the game.

Sporceror - Spellshot/Spore Warden

The Spellshot can be a difficult class to master, particularly if you accept the Glass Cannon skill. This is where the Spore Warden's Mushroom Companion helps, inevitably drawing some aggro off of you and allowing you to regroup and refresh your spells.

This combination really begins to shine however once you max out the Spellshot tree, gaining the Sever the Thread skill, where Gun Critical Hits have a chance to instantly refresh all spells. The War Caster skill added in allows for your guns to have a chance of being instantly reloaded upon getting a kill. Couple this with the Spore Warden's Bullseye skill, increasing Gun Critical Hit Chance, and you have a near-constant stream of spells at your disposal, and a reliable way of never having to manually reload your guns either.

If you wish, you can choose Stabbomancer instead of Spore Warden due to their focus on Critical Hits but you will have to fight on the battlefield alone. Your choice!

BrrReaver - Brr-Zerker/Graveborn

The Graveborn is a powerful class focused on risk-reward gameplay, sacrificing health to perform powerful attacks. As such, you'll often be close to the brink of death as you skirt around the battlefield. The Brr-Zerker is focused on Frost damage, enabling you to slow enemies and therefore making escape easier, but can also regenerate their health over time using the Unyielding skill.

Coupled with the Blood Frenzy skill, whereupon a kill you get a percentage of your health back, the downside of the Graveborn's life sacrifice can become more and more negligible as you progress further into the game. The Brr-Zerker's melee capabilities can also help you crowd control if you get overwhelmed and are low on health/your spells aren't refreshed. The Demi-Lich companion for the Graveborn also assists in this CC capacity, so you shouldn't get stuck in a pinch too often.

FrostShivver - Stabbomancer/Brr-Zerker

If you're a player interested in melee damage, this pairing is a no-brainer. The Stabbomancer has a focus on Critical Hits and has a number of skills bumping up melee speed, melee damage, and the chances of a melee attack being a Critical Hit/applying a status effect. The Shadow Step skill guarantees a Melee Critical Hit upon killing an enemy, and the Alchemical Agent skill applies a random Status Effect on that Melee Critical Hit; an excellent synergy.

Couple this with the melee capabilities of the Brr-Zerker, particularly with skills like The Old Ways, where the closer you are to an enemy the more damage you deal and the less you take, or the Blast Chill skill that enables to chance of a Frost Nova explosion with every melee attack, you can become a swinging, slashing, and smashing powerhouse very early on.

Experiment Away!

As previously mentioned, the class and build diversity is enough to substantiate multiple playthroughs, and with the right gear, you can make almost anything work - even in super unexpected ways. The combinations listed above are just some of the ones we've found that synergize particularly well, or help to make up for the deficits found in one of the classes with the strengths of another. Spore Warden is the most approachable of all the classes, and as such is likely a good fit with your main class if you're having trouble choosing, but after the campaign, as previously mentioned, you can change your mind at the Quick Change Station so get out there and start testing what works for you!
