Is there a seraph vendor anywhere in the Torgue DLC?

Are we going to have to farm to have enough tokens for a vending machine orange? I just beat Pyro Pete and have a grand total of 30 so far. Seems like a lonnnng way to go for the 600-something.

After I beat the dLC I had around 300. All of the battles in the DLC are repeatable for 20 each time, and I'd assume the raid bosses drop them too.

I cannot find the DLC in the store or in-game. Does Europe usually get that stuff later?

I passed by him somewhere in the Badass Crater hub area, but I can't remember where exactly he's located. Keep an eye out somewhere near where the DLC starts.

Having the same problem in Australia. And in less than an hour it'll be 22/11. Grrrr.

Created a US based user and I can see it on their store but if doesn't recognise I have the season pass. So just have to wait I guess.

Is there a list of any new unique guns in the Torgue DLC? I know there's at least one.

After playing up to killing Motor Momma, I can conclude that Mr. Torgue is one of the nicest characters in both games, especially so given how he's a CEO and doesn't hewn to the evil executive trope

He just wants to help you go the distance :3:

He's also quite the gentleman.

It looks like you can repeat the tier 3 challenges for 20 tokens a pop.

On another note, gently caress the tier 3 race challenge. I run out of time a couple of seconds before the finish line, even when the car doesn't randomly flip out some bit of the geometry and when I manage both short-cuts. Also enemies randomly spawn on the track.

He's near the vending machines where the Piss off sign and arrow are in the first town near the arena.

get another controller set up. have it sit before the checkpoint before the starting point in a car
race til you get to the point before the bridge, once you hit that checkpoint, pick up other controller and finish the race with time to spare.

Beat the story side of the DLC last night, Not a bad DLC, some of my favorite parts included.

Bar Brawl
tTina quests

Still have the post game stuff to do. But now that i learnt of these "Switches" against Petev2. Should make it a lot easier. Me and a friend got him down to about 60% by tediore reloading him to death. (Side note : He is vulnerable to slag).

I was cracking up during the whole run-up to it... KIDS THESE DAYS AND THEIR CRAAAZY LANGUAGE!, but the fight with Flyboy... has some choice moments. Chief among these: Moxxi and Torgue arguing about "INNUENDO!" - and of course "HOLY SH*TFU*K!"

How are you supposed to beat the tier 2 bar-room brawl side mission in the Torgue DLC? Even as a level 50 Gunzerker specced for maximum possible gunzerking duration (10 points in Last Longer and 9 points in Yippee Ki Yay) and dual-wielding an E-tech slag SMG and an E-tech fire SMG I can't kill everyone before the timer runs out.

Are there specific enemies you're meant to be targeting or something because I can't see how this is meant to be beatable. The only positive is I'm racking up Torgue tokens from repeating it so many times (gently caress knows how you're meant to get the 600 needed for a legendary though).

You need to kill all the 'Badass' rated enemies to win the bar fights.

The Torgue slots are the best source of tokens, using the same old dashboarding duplication trick.

Any hints as to how to beat Motor Mama solo on TVHM as a level 46 siren? She just kills me with her rockets, even from half way across the arena. I can't even take her shield down with my E-tech lightning rifle before I bleed out and there's no enemies to kill for second winds.

I was finding the DLC pretty easy up until this point.

Hang out in the entranceway to the arena and use the walls as cover. She murdered me on my first attempt but I managed to mess her up the second time - eventually, the bike breaks and she basically becomes a sitting duck.

Also: I just hit 50 :toot:

Now to do some Goddamn sidequests.

Bee/Two fer Maggie/sheriff's badge/any slag weapon and bonus package grenade for the spider ants. I would've used the Nukem to clear the ants but I didn't have it at the time. Baby maker would probably be good but for some reason mines just up and disappeared from my inventory.

I haven't been posting much lately because of reasons but I have just updated the OP with DLC information and things, which is a fantastic way to spend my time on an idle Wednesday.

Speaking of which it's about time it had an FAQ, so if anyone has anything they think worthwhile that isn't below then that'd be grand.

-Activating TVHM and PT2.5.
-Sidequests in PT2.5.
-The achievement for all challenges complete.
-SHiFT codes and how they actually work.

I haven't had chance to buy the DLC yet (paid tomorrow :woop:) but from the sounds of things I am missing out pretty heavily, can't wait to sink my teeth into it.

It might be worth mentioning that Mechromancer isn't included in the season pass. That question's been asked quite a bit in the last thread. I even thought she'd be included in the season pass when I bought it.

I'm really enjoying this DLC even though it is really hard at times.

I'm not sure if this is a glitch or what but since I heard that people had been getting Lengendaries from Pyro Pete I decided to go back there, but for whatever reason he will not spawn.

Then sometimes he will appear and just stand there and not fight you and you can't damage him. If you go up the elevators you can loot both red chests without fighting a single enemy.

Is anyone else getting this problem?

Thanks for mentioning this set-up. I had no problems soloing him as we'll. I found the Maggie/bee combo worked well with homing bonus package for the spider ants like you said. Overall not as tough of a fight like hyperious or master gee.

Wouldn't a Pistol Aggression mod or something that boosts cooldown something better than an increase in pistol fire time? The Maggie already fires as fast as you're able to pull the trigger

Well, following the layout given earlier, I've managed to solo Pete to 25% health before dying. Shock Conference Call/Bee combo wrecks his shields in two clips, but I think my Maggie is underpowered (Dastardly, not Two-Fer) to the point where the CC seems to work better against Pete after Phaselocking him to put slag on him.

Oh well, back to beating my head against it some more.
