Chance to Drop from Sludgemaw in Watershed Gate
Onion is a potential drop from Sludgemaw which is located in Watershed Gate, Idolator's Noose at Fadefields.
Sludgemaw is first encountered in the side mission All Charged Up. Keep in mind that you must first complete the Null and Void side mission before All Charged Up becomes available.
Has a Chance to Drop from Legendary Loot Sources
Aside from farming Sludgemaw, Onion also has a small chance of dropping from regular legendary loot sources like red chests, golden keys chests, and other bosses. You can speed up your legendary farming by using a boss farm or endgame builds for your Vault Hunter.
