Yeah, just connect to the internet before you start BL2 and it'll hotfix the lvl 48 Torgue vending machine legendaries to lvl 50 ones. Just keep reloading 'till ya get it. Then bring in a character with a second controller, dupe the weapon, dashboard out, and proceed to buy ALL the Torgue legendaries \/\/\/EDIT\/\/\/ MalleusDei posted:Yeah, I was hoping not to have to buy the DLC just for a legendary or two... Eh, yeah, the DLCs are nothing too game changing, to be honest. Only buy 'em if you feel like you want more game to chew through. I got suckered in by noted turn-of-the-century huckster-showman Randy Pritchford and bought the season pass. Soooort of regret it, I guess, but I probably would have bought the stuff eventually anyways, 'cuz I love this game. Monkey Fracas fucked around with this message at 22:33 on Feb 25, 2013 |

Its more of the same but the story and characters were entertaining enough that I didn't mind. Big Game Hunt feels much more lonely and the very basic game play structure really comes through when you don't have Mr Torgue screaming guitar noises at you.

So I'm grinding Hyperious for a level 50 explosive PBFG. This means however that I'm getting legendary drops that I don't need nor really want. If you want a specific gun/grenade/class mod just post what you want and I'll keep an eye out for it. Here's what I've gotten so far: Norfleet Shreddifier Hornet(Twin)(x2) Sledge's Shotgun Railer Kiss of Death Stormfront

Can I still trade items or use SHIFT codes? I'm sticking with Salvador and using this build: http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=149846 I've put 5 ranks into Hard to Kill, and the penalty for death is negligible, so I feel like I'm doing fine. I missed the Thre Dog drop from the assassin side quest, though, so can I still pick it up? And are Green weapons always better than White? I have a White shotgun that deals an extra 11% damage, but like my character I'm horrible at math so I don't know if its worth keeping.

I'm sticking with Salvador and using this build: http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=149846 (1) I'm afraid not. I tried to use SHIFT codes when I was silver, and you literally can't. It won't let you. It's absolute horseshit. (2) The Penalty for death is indeed negligible. (3) You can farm ALL of the assassins for their drops; also the red chests. That said, the levels for the THRE DOG are static at level 15. (4) Time for some borderlands arithmetic. i. White < EVERYTHING NOT WHITE. ii. Level X << Level X+1. iii. And finally, Color <<< Level. IN CONCLUSION: Always be on the lookout for better colors and higher levels.

But generally you're gonna come across guns you won't want to use and some type of weapons are just better than others for gunzerking. Early in the game use whatever you get, but you'll quickly find out if you like Jakobs Pistols or Hyperion Pistols better, and a gun you're more comfortable with will perform better than the gun that has better stats.

Color <<< Level is true, but it's not that big a deal in the early levels of Playthrough I. Around the 40s is when the exponential growth starts to really, really kill you if you're using even a really good gun that's one level down. At 50, I've seen white guns completely outclass Level 48 purples.

The colors of rarity go: white, green, blue, purple, magenta, orange. All red text weapons(unique/legendary) are either blue or orange. All unique weapons earned as a reward for a quest are blue. All etech weapons use 2 ammo per shot no matter what(my railer has 6 capacity but can only fire 3 shots because of this). Legendary(orange) weapons are usually the best weapons in the game and can drop anywhere but specific weapons have a better drop rate with specific characters( I.e. been boom drops the bonus package at higher rate but can also drop a stormfront). Pink weapons are dlc guns bought from seraph vendors with seraph crystals. Seraph crystals drop from dlc raid bosses.

Because I want to be an rear end in a top hat, I'd like to point out that at least one purple unique quest-reward item exists (Deadly Bloom), and one orange quest-reward item exists (Flame of the Firehawk).

I forgot about the deadly bloom, but I'm reading the wiki and there is apparently a hidden purple unique shield called the cracked sash. Are you sure about the flame?

Does Gwen's Head stop spawning after you find the first one in The Dust, or can you get multiples? The wiki seems torn about this, so I'm polling here.

If you're farming them, go to Lychwood and exit into The Dust. The box sometimes spawns to the right of the stairs.

I chased down Jack to this insane Badass Constructor while solo last night and I'm at level 29 on my first playthrough. I died around 30 times before giving up and just trying to run my rear end to the next door without a fight. I made it into Hero's Pass [I think it was called] and I'm in a sudden fight against a flying lavamonster. Is this seriously the end of the first game? I'm in serious need to get to level 30 for some weapons and shields but otherwise I think I could take this on with my Mechromancer. Veterans' thoughts?

For the warrior I had the shield-passive for Deathbot and the "+5 seconds to duration on kill and +% to melee damage", took forever to kill the warrior but my bot tanked it the whole time (and I was at 90% shields the whole time). There are a ton of piddly enemies that can be one-shot by bot and yourself. I stayed to the side on the ammo dispenser with a really good Jakobs sniper rifle for crystals and boss. The slot-machines always give level appropriate weapons, so I rolled them a few times since I kept getting white smg:s on the final maps for some reason.

Okay, so it basically is the end of the story missions. I should gamble but I wasted all my money on multiple respawns and didn't think to dashboard so I could have kept my $20k+ I will grind for now.

Oh yeah I almost forgot. A while ago someone was asking for an explosive relic, and Pete happened to drop a purple 30% one for me today. I can't remember who it was, but if you want it let me know.

Banuaba you are awesome for jumping in for that short amount of time, sorry I'm a dick and bailed. I'm basically gonna grind for some side quests I didn't bother with before. My buddy and I sped through this last weekend in a 5hr couch co-op basically ignoring all but story missions. He left me at the last boss to take solo so I'm farming until he comes back but it will be so worth it.
