If you're having a hard time building momentum you can get a fast-reloading Jakobs shotgun and farm up about 100 stacks of Anarchy off the target practice guy in Marcus's place and then use those 100 stacks to go wild like before. It's a little boring but it's an option.

I'm really just dying to reach 61 because I have some really nice shock gear waiting for me and I'll respec to a shock mechro. Until then it's a total slog.

IF ONE MORE GUY loving BUMPS INTO ME WHEN I TRY TO OPEN SOMETHING OR PICK SOMETHING UP SO I ACCIDENTALLY RELOAD AND LOOSE ALL MY STACKS :ssj:
Always have a Sledge's Shotgun or the Orphan maker if you're going high anarchy. They only have one shot so you can't accidentally reload.

Also Krieg is out motherfuckers! On 360 anyway

I'm playing around with him now, but I'm down for starting a new character for the Krieg-some. GT is FREE SHRUGS and I'll be on pretty much all day.

You lucky bastards who can actually get enough anarchy stacks to actually worry about losing them. :negative: I haven't been above 150 anarchy since starting UVHM.

Sound like you need an Orphan Maker. Who cares that I can 3 shot myself at full Anarchy stacks with that shotgun! It also helps to keep my nova shield going indefinitely. Also, get discord.

If you're expecting average guns for your current level, then it's pretty good. About what you'd find in a vendor, maybe a little better. If you're expecting blues, purples and oranges then don't even bother. It's like winning the lottery.

Honestly I'm just farming Eridium while the price is still low. I'm fairly certain that's the first orange I've seen in a slot machine too.

It's because you got three vault symbols. The odds of hitting that is like 1:5461 or something, from someone who decided to crunch a ton of data.

Downloading Krieg for xbox and looking for goons to play with for an all natural, bareback Krieg train woo woo

I ended playing with a friend(?) of mechwarriors and he had his game set to public...gently caress pubbies. Why join a true vaulter game as a 61 run through a mission grabbing all chests and quit? When goons ruin peoples games they loving put effort into it.

I still play the slot machines all the time, it's not like you don't get a lot more money than you need in this game. It might be different at max level but i'm only like level 20.

It seems that without taking the Boiling Blood skill, you lose the stacks just as quickly as you gain them.

It seems that currently looking at the BL2 forums there is a bug where people aren't getting stacks at all.

So best to avoid a whole skill tree till there is any word on it.

You don't actually have to do the arenas while you're levelling, it's totally optional content.

If you do it at level 25 then the gun will be stuck at level 25 and when you hit level 50 it'll be long-since useless! This is why lots of people try to play as little of the TVHM sidequests as possible, so they can save all the mission guns for the level cap.
