Here Are the Zane Skill Trees in Borderlands 3

Fans have been using the Borderlands 3 ECHOcast Twitch extension to take their first look at the playable Vault Dwellers in Borderlands 3. We had already gotten a sneak peak at what the Siren Amara is capable of, but now it’s time to look at the skills Zane, the “Operative.”

These are currently the only two characters whose skill trees are available, but it does give us our first taste of what to expect when Borderlands 3 comes out later in the year. Each character will have three different skill trees focusing on a different aspect of combat.  However, as this is form an early version of Borderlands 3, things could still change between now and its September 2019 release date.

Take a look at Zane’s skill tree here:
