If I remember right, it all scaled up to 69. I'm specifically saving 2.5 quests for after the cap. However there are a couple that I probably won't be able to get again that I'd really like.

The level cap for the first game was increased by a patch, which is what I imagine they will do here. I doubt you'll be required to have DLC to gain levels.

I'm playing right not on 360, GT: Flexible Ethics, if anyone wants to do anything. I've got a 37 Mechro, and a 31 Assassin, Siren, and Commando. I've also got some heads that Krampus duped me that I can share.

Pritches you sneaky bastard. Has anyone actually heard/seen what's gonna happen? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure someone starting their sentence with "I guess" with no references is not a statement of fact.

They've teased it for so long and every DLC another little hint comes out about them that I can't see them just being silent about the story behind them.

Ok, I've just started Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt, and these bullshit enemies are really getting on my nerves. It pisses me off that these tribals' wooden shields somehow negate all my damage from my Good Touch. I've got a good Torgue explosive shotgun to make fighting these guys somewhat bearable, but I just came across my first Vampire Witch Doctor and it ended with me throwing 8 grenades and hoping for the best while grumbling to myself about how Gearbox doesn't do playtesting. What am I supposed to do to beat these things reliably? His mask deflects my bullets, I can't do anything to counter his bat swarm, and whenever I've almost killed one it just drains my health faster than I can damage it. edit:vv I'm an Assassin, but I don't really want to respec from Bloodlust to Sniper just for one enemy type.

Kifisonfire posted:I could have sworn it was a patch, but yeah you're right. Now I remember the achievements for overlevelling. You're half right. They did increase the level cap again through a patch that made Borderlands compatible with Claptrap's Robot Revolution. It wasn't necessary to have the DLC to gain the 8 levels they added. I'm not sure what they could do about the Seraphs based storyline besides "OH NO SUPER ERIDIUM", but I might be lacking in imagination on that front. I definitely think the DLC released so far is pretty good, but the lack of any hard announcement for a level cap so far is kind of...irksome to me. It makes the hunt for extremely powerful/rare loot right now kind of pointless, since it could be announced at any time. It doesn't help that the loot keeps getting exponentially powerful, so I'm sure my lvl 50 Yellow Jacket is going to to be terrible by 52. At the very least they're finally addressing some of the strange bugs and oversights that have been in the game since release.

I believe the perspective is that you're respeccing to keep your character from dying all the time. I definitely have preferred skill buildouts, but if it's not working then there's no point in keeping it. It's not like you can't change it back.

Alternatively, get a really good fire weapon like a Moloko sniper rifle or Miss Moxxi's Heartbreaker and go to town. Boosting your fire damage helps a lot since most of the enemies are fleshy. Sniping from a distance and then moving in to clean up the stragglers is an excellent strategy, also always go for witch doctors first to prevent them from overleveling the savages. Keep that Torgue shotty for the annoying floating pods and drifters. You probably don't need to respec, just try for critical hits always and you should be fine.

My usual strategy is to just run straight in, pop Deception, then melee as many dudes from behind as possible (assuming I do enough damage or the game doesn't poo poo itself and cause me to do no damage) before using my Righteous Anarchist or Good Touch to tear everything apart up close.

Yeah, so I'm just sending lvl 1 auto-generated Axtons to collect stuff in the treasure room for me now. I may as well collect drat near every permutation of the weird E-Tech weapons and purple weapons as well as all the types of relics while I'm trying to get legendaries. Eventually I'm going to have to find some way to organize all this poo poo.

Kifisonfire posted:I've got a WTF, although I'm not sure why anyone would want a 50 1340. Hambone got me covered for awhile with all the shields he dropped last night. I learned that you don't wear WTFs while sniping and you definitely don't wear one when you're by yourself because you're going down alot from those IED grenades. Also two people wearing the Hoplite plus ES glitched Infinity pistols makes Master Gee a chump. Once we had his shields down we were averaging 15-20 seconds to kill him and we could just sit there and tank. As for the 1340 shield, I've always gone for the shotgun so I have no idea what the shield does. I looked it up on the wiki and it looks like and just an average shield that talks so unless someone has one they're willing to dupe I'll never get it.

If I am reading this correctly, don't expect a level cap increase any time soon (if ever). http://venturebeat.com/2013/02/07/borderlands-2-level-cap-increase/ In short, Randy says its "memory issues" preventing them from increasing the cap, or that it will make the game "too unbalanced". e: He says (on twitter) one will come, but probably "later this year, and will not increase skill points".

I'm kinda curious which combinations of two top-level skills would be beyond the Xbox's capability to handle. Two Saber turrets that both set off nukes? Throwing knives that reset your deception cooldown? A Deathtrap that can be charged with elemental damage and also wears a copy of your shield? Also, it's funny to hear him complain about destroying the game balance when the Evil Smasher glitch has remained unpatched long after the CC/Bee nerf.
