Cruising around Kairos is a breeze on your personalized Digirunner vehicle, which you can summon almost anywhere. When you're not jet-boosting across huge expanses or using the Digirunner's front-mounted turret to mow down enemies, you can customize its components and handling via unlockable Hover Drives, and give it a new aesthetic with collectible cosmetics.

This loyal drone buddy is always ready to provide guidance with the press of a button, showing you the best path across Kairos to your next objective. Your ECHO-4 also lets you upgrade your ammo-carrying capacity or change your Vault Hunter's cosmetic appearance no matter where you are.

As you traverse Kairos, keep an eye out for Points of Interest that you can claim for your Crimson Resistance, weakening the Timekeeper's grip on the planet. Once you've wiped out any nearby enemies, you can reclaim places like safe houses to expand your Fast Travel options, or silos with decommissioned Order communications balloons that let you take to the sky, scope out your next target, and aid your search for elusive Vault Key Fragments.
