Borderlands 2 Game of the Year Guide › Optional Missions

This Town Aint Big Enough

Mission Briefing

Sir Hammerlock asked you to rid Liar’s Berg of Bullymongs. While the residents of the town were murdered by bandits weeks ago, Hammerlock nonetheless feels that their former homes should not be torn up by feces-tossing ape creatures.

Availability: Speak to Sir Hammerlock in Liar’s Berg after “Cleaning Up the Berg.”

Unlocks: “Shielded Favors” and “Bad Hair Day”

Mission Reward: Sir Hammerlock

Level Money XP Gear

Liar’s Berg

Bullymongs have infested two areas within Liar’s Berg, the pond and the graveyard, and Sir Hammerlock wants you to clear them out. You’re free to tackle either area first, but the pond (directly beneath the rope bridge strung across the chasm near the Bounty Board) contains just Monglets and Brat Bullymongs, whereas the graveyard area is guaranteed to contain at least a few rock-throwing Adult Bullymongs and Bullymong Slingers.

Approach the graveyard via the road that leads north through town, past the switch controlling the western gate. Open fire on the first Bullymong as soon as you can get a clean shot. Avoid straying too close to the graveyard entrance, or you’ll certainly be overwhelmed at close range. Strafe left to right to avoid the incoming projectiles (shooting them helps earn you credit toward a Challenge), and focus your fire on each Bullymong as it exits the graveyard between the snowy blocks. Try to leave any Monglets you see alive in case you get downed and need an easy kill for a Second Wind. Back away from the Bullymongs, and don’t hesitate to duck behind the cover of the metal wall near the gate switch.

Make your way to the frozen pond, either by leaping off the cliffs near the Bounty Board or by dropping in from the Quick-Change station uphill from the graveyard. It’s very rare for any of the Bullymongs in this area to throw rocks—something the Monglets are incapable of. If you’re at all worried about the battle to come, go ahead and pick off a few Monglets from atop the rope bridge. Take your shots from afar with the pistol, then switch to the shotgun and stride out onto the ice to mop up the last few Bullymongs. Clearing the pond is far easier than the graveyard, but you’re unlikely to gain a level doing either of them, so the order doesn’t matter.

Put your shotgun to use if the Bullymongs get too close!
