It's not a difficulty thing it's an "I'm a new dad and I already beat it, just with my co-op friend, in his game, and so I don't want to do it all again because I don't exactly have the time." thing. I guess I just have to play when he plays or something... :/

UVHM has been fun so far. Only died once so far to some bullymongs trying to do the Bad Hair Day quest and I just completed Hunting the Firehawk which put me at 52. No pearls or 50+ legendaries yet. Also I just read on gamefaqs (and saw pics) that playing Poker Night at the Inventory 2 will unlock exclusive Borderlands 2 skins for all the characters (except Krieg, apparently). Zero gets a Portal turret skin Sal gets a motherfucking Brock Samson head Gaige gets Max of Sam & Max's head Maya gets a lame rear end poker visor Axton gets Evil Ash from Army of Darkness' head ...Might actually have to get this just for the Brock Samson head.

Welp, things are going pretty well with the Gunzerker "Always Have the Slagga in One of Your Hands" strategy. I think I'm actually going to have to find some more slag weapons, as I eventually start outpacing my ammo regen with my ammo usage rate. Hasn't been a problem yet, anyways. Oh, and even on UVHM enemies cannot escape the horror that is two Bonus Packages thrown into a confined space. :staresplosion:

Would have been 3 Deathtraps if I'd have been around, now that's fun, I'll be around later for some UVHM fun later on, when stuff gets updates for us in the UK zone.

People weren't joking about UVHM being really hard, I've just had my rear end handed to me twice by Boom-Bewm, eventually I just blew up Big Bertha from a mile away with a Sniper and blew the twins apart with a Shock Rocket Launcher, Captain Flynt is going to be a toughie when I face him soon.

Slag + Norfleet is how my friend and I managed Flynt last night. Also, on a completely unrelated note, we found a bug last night that I'm sure a lot of Mechromancer players have come across, but wanted to point it out to those who may not be aware of it yet. If you're going to use an Orange (Legendary) shield with your Mancer and have the ability that Deathtrap gets a copy of your shield, be warned that most, if not all, Legendary shields will cause you to drop into FFYL as soon as you summon Deathtrap because of a bug in the system. A Hide of Terra shield, which doesn't affect health at all, caused this to happen and led to a search to validate what had happened. This will also happen if you have a Turtle-type shield that takes off enough health--the Hoplite (Seraph shield) did it as well in our trials last night. On the flip side, equipping a shield like the Evolution will boost the Mancer's health while DT is out on the field--the Mancer's health went to over 135K with an Evolution + summoned DT vs. 75K with Evolution alone. Given some of the difficulties in UVHM, I thought having this out there as a refresher for those who may have missed it before would be a public service.

Does TVHM cap at 50 or does it scale up but just not have quite the level of difficulty as UVHM? Edit: I mean the enemies.

No pearls or 50+ legendaries yet. I'm annoyed I can't do this right now just to get it out of the way. I want the heads/skins, but I hate poker. UVHM is pretty awesome. It encourages something that resembles a balanced group. Last night, we had Axton, Maya, and 2 Salvador's. Maya spent most of the time healing the other 3 and Axton's turrets. The turrets were awesome for picking up aggro so the gunzerkers could do their thing while the soldier kept everything slagged. Lots of deaths regardless but it was a good time. We didn't see anything other than a million e-tech weapons(mostly pistols), but I got about halfway to 53 from the beginning to just after Wilhelm. Not sure how viable solo is for reasonable XP gains because a group of 53 bonerfarts will gently caress up my day pretty well. Turrets have a life span of about 5 seconds when there isn't anyone else but me shooting. A+ will play again.

If your on 360, I need a co-op dad buddy, I can only play after the 2 year old goes to bed, so 10 to midnight California time for me.

My GT is Lydi Rae but most nights I'll be co-op with my hubby because the new level cap has made him interested in the game again. I also loot-puked all over his mechromancer so he's totally enamored with his inventory.

Same, although my Norfleet sucks now. I've been using the Thunderball Fists and Blockhead pretty much, but I'm stuck at the gluttonous thresher in the Highlands now. His shields regenerate so quickly it's unreal.

One UVHM change I noticed last night is that my favorite enemy is spawning loving everywhere now- the Scavenger! They have unreasonable amounts of health and steal poo poo off of the ground like dicks- I hate them. The worst is when you see them pick a good item off the ground and disappear it into their mystery bag forever. They are priority #1 whenever I notice the jerks- although you'll have all the other, easier-to-kill guys firing on you while you try to kill the one tough enemy it's worth it. What if you saw one steal a Pearlescent item

I noticed those scavengers and hate their shields. Trying to knock them down with an electric Lucid Trance and take them out with my Blockhead, but they still stay up way too long. For guys who sorta look like normal marauders, they're way more difficult.

All right so UVHM Commando build time. This is what I'm using for my ultimate run and what I recommend to other commando users who have the Legendary class mod. Guerrilla Tree: Sentry 5 Ready 3 Willing 5 Able 1 Scorched Earth 1 Onslaught 5 Grenadier 3 Crisis Management 2 Double Up 1 Gunpowder Tree: Impact 3 Expertise 1 Survival Tree Healthy 1 Preparation 5 Pressure 4 Forbearance 4 Phalanx Shield 1 Resourceful 4 Mag-Lock 1 Grit 5 Gemini 1 There's a couple of the skills where the points can be adjusted for different skill but, this is what I recommend.

It seems to be going a little bit better, but I'm still struggling a bit (doesn't help I didn't farm TVHM at all and have zero Legendaries).

Do the class mods get more points for the level 50+ variants? Right now, I'm still rocking my level 50 mods (legendary one when I need to rely on my turret, and the expert grenadier when I don't), and haven't really seen anything better.

Not to mention the fact that the enemies scale to the level of whoever has the highest level, so everything was skull rank when you were in yesterday, that made things very interesting on my end. As a side note, I'm finding UVHM far easier as Maya than Gaige, since I've pumped as many points as possible into skills that increase elemental effect chance and damage, Phaselock also auto slags everything in its radius too which is making things go fairly smoothly for me now.
