I want a vault hunter based on Charles Bronson. The English convict Charles Bronson. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1172570/A Deathwish Bronson would be sweet too, but I really want to hear my Vault hunter shouting "YOU CUNTS!" and "Now hang on to your fillings" like a massive English madman. poo poo Gearbox would never go for that. Fine, the actual Charles Bronson. Massive lapels and sideburns. Make it happen internet.

The wrong range being anything further than 10 yards in front of you. I had a blast going through Lynchwood for the first time with Octo. Hide behind a crate, wait for the bandits to get closer, peek and shoot. Shields were gone on first hit, second one left them at 10-20% health.

When I logged in, my lvl 32 Mechromancer who just killed the Warrior had all her skill points reset. Nothing else appears to be amiss, but it's really strange...should I be concerned?

So I just got the Bee with my gunzerker without having to farm for it... a level 26 Bee. Can't decide if I should be stoked about it.

Depends: do you like the idea of a game being stupid easy? Not sure what a low-level Bee does, but at 50, the drat thing adds 50K+ per bullet/pellet/whatever. Kinda boring when nothing but "[name] the Invincible" can withstand more than two shots from certain guns when Bee enhanced, if you ask me.

This weekend, I got four golden keys. I have added to my collection of level 50 purple grenade mods eight additional purple grenade mods. And thanks, by the way, for making action and reload mapped to the same key, with no way to separate them, and then giving me a new character who is highly dependent on not reloading who now reloads all the time accidentally when trying to open a locker! dammit

If your Mechromancer is an alt, blitz through the storyline and farm all the Eridium you need off Bnk3r or Warrior? Then you can pretty safely skip all the lockers and small boxes.

Huh, it never occurred to me till now for some reason, but it seems like the Bee would work really well with an Anarchy Gaige, what with her ability to refill her Shield to 100% on kill.

Reloads don't count until you complete them. Switch to another weapon before it finishes to preserve your Anarchy. Also Discord has been worth a point just to minimize the bleeding. Really wish it was remappable though. Relatedly, I've been having a weird glitch with Gaige and reloading in co-op. Sometimes when I'm reloading from empty it counts like I'm reloading early. I'm pretty sure I'm not loving up, I've watched it reload with the magazine at zero and then have Discord activate. It's not every time and I think it mostly happens with SMGs. Never happens in solo. I can't figure out the cause, I initially thought it might have been someone with a team magazine size mod or something, but no one I was playing with had one.

I've been farming Jimmy Jenkins for hours and at this point I would rather start a new Maya to get the 100 phaselock trophy and then join as my PT2 Zer0 later during the Doctors Orders quest. Would Zer0 get the badass challenge for killing Jimmy Jenkins or would Maya get it, since her playthrough will be hosting the game?

Turned out to be good for taking out badass constructors from a safe distance, but the low capacity with gunzerker having no shield restoration skills make it tough to justify for regular combat. I also never noticed that in the area you get the "Feels Like the First Time" achievement at Arid Nexus Badlands, a level 2-4 pup skag will show up. Don't know if that's the same for TVH, but it's a nice little quasi-easter egg. Skittle Wood fucked around with this message at 11:06 on Oct 28, 2012 |

Did anyone else experience a large jump in difficulty around level 27? I sure am. Suddenly a lot of my weapons (which are the same level as me) are doing pretty puny damage to enemies that are also the same level as me, even weapons that they are vulnerable to. I'm both dying and running out of ammo much more frequently. Particularly, in the caustic caverns, there's a badass fire thresher that can basically one-shot me with its burst when it comes up through the ground, so getting past it alive is sheer luck.

This happened to me, too, playing Maya. I just finished the story yesterday (solo) at level 37, and even though I was over-leveled for all the final areas I was still vulnerable to being one-shot or two-shot by big enemies or any kind of explosive. I found a level 28 Bee which, given everyone's love for it here, I thought would make the rest of the game trivial; it certainly didn't feel that way. To the person above who asked about the low level Bee, at level 28 mine adds ~1450 shields, has 4.5 second recharge delay, fully recharges in a second or less, and deals ~3200 bonus damage.

The thing with The Bee, in particular any version that isn't Level 50, is that you trade massive amounts of survivability for extra damage. This isn't so huge with the Level 50 version due to it having such a low recharge delay, and the capability of adding 50k damage to each bullet. When you go into TVHM (and even the final stages of Playthrough 1) your main concern really should be more about surviving and careful, more strategic play than in Playthrough 1, and The Bee simply won't ever give you that. Someone is probably going to jump in here and say how wrong I am for saying these things, but I guess it's dependent on you as a player to be your own judge on this thing - if you think you can use The Bee at its lower level variants, then go for it, but if you find that it's underwhelming compared to the love you've seen heaped on it on this forum, then you might find yourself having an easier time by using a Turtle Shield or something, to give you that extra edge with regards to survivability.

I just got the game and accidentally went over to the DLC Oasis area at a low level - Is everything going to be scaled to that level now, or will it switch if I go back there later?

I have, however, gotten, a Hunting Coachgun that puts all my legendary shotties to shame (I don't have the CC) so I'm happy for now. I nabbed a Bee (no prefix) earlier and then in short order collected a Maggie and a Cradle. Last night was a good night for hunting oranges, I guess.

Kifisonfire posted:Maya would get it since all the challenges would be reset for a new character. Your best bet is to find a goon who hasn't finished Doctor's Quest and join their game with Maya, then hope he shows up. Strange, I've completed one of the challenges I was doing as Zero and Maya's HUD didn't show anything. Also I guess they patched it because I've been doing ten runs in co-op, several as Zer0 and a few as Maya and I have yet to see a single Loot Midget.

So I've gotten this weird bug where dialogue won't play if I'm in a shop (or it plays in a horribly broken fashion) and now sounds aren't playing at all sometimes. Gunfire is silent and I only get half of a reloading sound. Anyone else gotten that?

Looting for goods to kill Terramorphous and not die immediately to Hyperius and Master Gee if you got the Captain Scarlett DLC seems like the end result of PT2. maybe finishing every sidequest for the Trophy or getting level 1 of every Challenge for the trophy too.
