Guide to completing the 'Bunch of Ice Holes' side mission in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel. Learn how to get special ice, defeat enemies, and choose your reward.

Walkthrough
  1. 1
    First things first, you'll need to grab the mission from Nurse Nina in Concordia. She's got a broken fridge and needs some special ice to keep her supplies cool. Once you accept the mission, turn around and grab the drill she's got lying around.
  2. 2
    Now, set off for Triton Flats. Your destination within Triton Flats is a place called Frozen Gulch. You'll find it off a small path once you reach the waypoint.
  3. 3
    Your main objective here is to place the drill and wait for it to create the special ice. Be warned, though – the ice itself is actually harmful to you! Don't linger on it for too long, or you'll start taking damage and eventually die.
  4. 4
    At the first mining spot, you'll be ambushed by three Ice Shugguraths and some Rathyds. You absolutely have to defeat the Shugguraths to proceed, so focus your fire on them.
  5. 5
    The second mining spot is a bit more relaxed; you just need to wait for the ice to form. No enemies here, thankfully.
  6. 6
    As you're heading to the third mining spot, you'll get a call from B4R-BOT back in Concordia. He'll offer you a shotgun if you bring him the ice for his drink. This gives you a choice: deliver the ice to Nina or B4R-BOT.
  7. 7
    However, before you can make that delivery, you'll have to deal with a much bigger problem. A giant Ice Shuggurath will spawn! You'll need to take this massive foe down.
  8. 8
    Once the giant Shuggurath is defeated, grab the special ice. Now you can make your choice: bring it to Nurse Nina or B4R-BOT to complete the mission and claim your reward.
Tips
  • The Ice Shugguraths, including the giant one, have critical hit points on their eyes. Aiming for the eyes will make them much easier to take down.
  • XP 2727
  • 140 dollars
  • Choice between an assault rifle or a shotgun (depending on who you deliver the ice to).
