I was wondering that too, but I couldn't find where the patch was to delete it when I looked in the storage listing.
Because "legendary" is the rarity name for orange stuff, like seraph is for pink stuff.

Yes, and I don't know. I think it stems from the orange legendary class mods? Or maybe I have it all hosed up and when people say legendaries they really just mean the class mods.

Hilariously, that's one of my favorites. It has a great critical bonus and with a moderate ES glitch it can easily pick off just about anyone at 9mil damage a pop. Insta-kill with every round!

Just like everything else in the game it is probably heavily gear dependent.

Always add "*assuming you have one of the highest damage legendary weapons in the game" to any claim that a build has awesome damage output.

I may have asked this before but now I've got the DLC it's more relevant. When is it best to do them? Me and my friend are playing splitscreen co-op and are at level 29, just finished the Bunker mission I think. The DLC is level 30 right? So if we go in asap and do both will it push us way higher than the mainquest will go so that'll be boring or will that scale up with us? Or should we wait until we've done the mainquest and then do the DLC or just do it in TVHM when we start that (and what level/when is it best to do that at if this is the best option)?

I'm running an Impact Grenadier currently on live (same as Forum handle). I'm running with a Kerblaster, 2x Thunderballfist, Torgue spingun (5.7fr/45ish ammo), a harold, and a Pocket Rocket.

As far as damage is concerned I can't complain. The spingun listed above has about 12500 dmg, but hits for over 80k a shot. It's entirely gear dependant though. But even that silly blue Pocket Rocket pistol sold in Torgue vending machines hits for just shy of 200k w/o a Bee shield for me currently.

Skill wise I went for Double Up, as I wanted a slag option, and Crisis Management kind of works well with using a Bee Shield as you'll be running on empty quite a lot (it also helps you do damage while in second wind).

If it's the place I think it is because I got stuck there for like an hour myself, you have to go up a hill on the opposite side of the canyon from where the fast travel looks like it should be. Then you'll get to an overpass that leads there. I liked Borderlands 2 overall, but man does that map loving suck, I hope they fix that in the next game.

That thing actually outdamages my buffalo rifle somehow on a sniper specced Zero. Using scopeless sniper rifles is actually pretty fun once you get the hang of it. I can't be the only one that thought Sawtooth Canyon was unnecessary padding.

I've played the game to level 50 on two characters, and I still have no idea what going there does. Like, you kill some guy and blow up a Buzzard and that makes the bridge to Fyrestone go up.

It was appreciated by me as a nice break from the robots that made up the rest of the back third of the game though the tower with 5 or 6 buzzards can go gently caress itself solo. Probably would have been better to just make Hyperion a bit more varied as a faction. I was expecting some sort of cyborg hybrid to show up with them.

It's something to do with getting some bombs so that brick's buddies can explode the bridge open. That whole thing seemed like padding to me too, since from my estimation Pandora is ~40% explosives by weight.

I found something vaguely offensive about being called 'Slab' all through the endgame, but especially in that stupid canyon and while fighting Bunk3r. I dunno why, just grates on me.

Is there a particular weapon set I should be aiming for on salvador? I was thinking double pistols since there's a talent that boosts their damage but they're kind of dull.

I use pistols or pistol/SMG as the first set and shotgun / sniper on the second set.

It's not that I mind being shouted at constantly by NPC's, not once when Mr Torque did it did I think, "Wow how annoying is this guy?" but whenever Brick did I wanted a mute option just for him.

Luckily, you can cut out most of the first section by just jumping down and immediately running left. If you use Zer0, you can activate deception and be almost to the underground section by the time it ends, especially if you manage to kill a guy or two on the way
