This skill doesn't cause you to lose any of your actual grenades and you can function as normal. Regenerates 2.5% of your Max Health/secĬauses Claptrap as well as teammates to toss grenades uncontrollably. His active duration varies between each skill.Ĭooldown: 40 secs. There is no announced active duration of his action packages but using a stopwatch and careful video timing, a rough estimate has been found. In addition to preforming all sorts of different roles, vaulthunter.exe also refills Claptrap's health and shield. You may have awesome skills at times and awkward skills at other times which might even affect your allies.

This skill seems very random, similar to a roulette wheel of fun. Claptrap can then fight in that manner for a short period of time. An Action Package is chosen, which doesn't always involve a Vault Hunter thanks to this program being in its beta stage. Examples of the things that are analyzed are low shields, the number of enemies currently present, teammates nearby, etc. He loads the program and analyzes the situation to decide which Vault Hunter would do the job best (Funzerker is an obvious nod to Salvador). This video shows our first look at Claptraps potential.Ĭlaptrap joins the party with a video all about him and many of his skills, until Nisha steals his thunder.Ĭlaptrap's Action Skill is vaulthunter.exe. He can strafe side to side which I imagine his wheel just shifts into a horizontal position. When he sprints however, he doesn't jog making the camera bounce around because he has a wheel instead of legs. And YES, Claptrap can go up stairs, climb ladders, jump, and even sprint. He does take a deep breath before going out into space because he is imitating the other vault hunters. Claptrap doesn't need oxygen so he can use his 0z a lot more than others without fear of suffocating. The Claptrap we meet in the first Borderlands is the same as the Claptrap seen in Borderlands 2 and the playable class in Borderlands the Pre-Sequel.Ĭlaptrap's point of view is lower than other characters because he is so small. This character class is not some random Claptrap unit, though. After the Vault Hunters defeated the Interplanetary Ninja Assassin, Handsome Jack, leader of the Hyperion Corporation, ordered the destruction of all Claptrap units on Pandora. It was during the events of the original games final DLC, Claptrap’s Robot Revolution, that Claptrap decided to rebel against the humans for their rampant abuse of the CL4P-TP units throughout Pandora.

We first met him in the original when the Vault Hunters were fresh off the bus in Fyrestone and Claptrap was merely a guidance robot that helped the Vault Hunters along with tedious tasks such as opening doors and getting maimed by bandits. First seen in 2009’s Borderlands, Claptrap marks his return but this time, he’s playable.
