You hit a invisible wall where I took the picture. He tried to continue to back it up the pipe but it wouldn't budge past that point. I think the only reason it made it in there was we hit the ramp slightly at an angle.

That, the rebound didn't take me out of the pipe, and I turboed up the ramp to hit the pipe.

I couldn't drive it forward from my landing spot, so perhaps going forward you can run it further than I did. I was shocked I got it that far.

Wound up going offline over the weekend and sitting my Psycho in the UVHM Tier 3 bar brawl, letting my buddy's Gunzerker annihilate everything.
He was set up as a double-pistol Gunzerker / 2 Infinities and 2 Unkempt Harolds / I could complete the bar brawl in a minute flat consistently. I got my psycho up to $7mil selling lvl61 gear I didn't need, and really started raking in points.
The Gunzerker is the only class I haven't started yet, and I think that's what I'll begin when Tina's DLC drops. It's a very refreshing playstyle since it really focuses on gun usage and makes you want to find the perfect loadout to march through an area.

I have a gunzerker build that only requires 5 different pieces of gear. A Sham, Logan's Gun, Hoarder mod with + to 6 shots for 5, as many topneaa rocket launchers are you can come up with(I can dupe you good ones), and I guess an explosive relic is good too, though it doesn't matter so much when you fire 40+ rockets before you reload. I almost never reload and fire 10000000 rockets constantly. The only thing the build isn't very good at are flying enemies(can easily switch out for any gun you want, as you'll be regenerating ammo all the time), and raid bosses that don't have very many adds that shoot at you.

yessir. If you see me on, just shoot me a message that you're ready for gunzerker biz and I'll drop in and explain my build and dupe some stuff. however, a warning about topneaa spamming. If you do bar room with anyone else, make sure they aren't using norfleets(I'll give you some of those too). I have confirmed 100% that topneaa spam + norfleet spam = host xbox locks up quickly. hahaha. norfleet + norfleet is fine, but topneaa's create a lot of work for the hosting xbox, and someone else using norfleets or topneaa's will definitely cause a problem.

The melee buff seems to stick around, and you can throw your axe infinitely if you don't equip another gun/pull up the inventory. The item itself seems useless at the moment, but I'm sure there must be a way to trade or duel for it.

You can't drop it, you can't stash it and you can't sell it. You can't even favourite it in your inventory (But you can set it to trash, which is weird)

I haven't tried dueling yet, but I get the impression it wouldn't work either. Unless there's some way to get it into gibbed from a save file?

If you can put it in your inventory/bank, save/quit, log back in and find it in your inventory/bank then there's a way to get a weapon code for it.

I haven't tried saving/quitting, but it definitely disappears when you dashboard and reload the game.

You can put it back in your inventory once you've equipped it, but can't put it in the bank/stash. I mean, it has stats and an ammo count, and the game treats it like a pistol, so it must be a weapon.

The stats are the same as the item which was above in in the inventory. Check the bandit roid shield you have on the right, it'll match up.

It's a x5, but the numbers are either in the millions or have decimal places so the x in the x5 overlaps it.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Krieg doesn't really work until you get the 50s and even then he's heavily gear dependent. If you don't have it already, I highly recommend getting either a flame of the firehawk or a rapier. The rapier is fine for mania, but if you want the.firehawk to work you'll need to respec to either bloodlust or the fire tree. I've posted my crazy.damage build earlier in the thread, look at that if you need to rebuild Krieg.

Or me? I'm using a build where everything is constantly taking fire damage at all times, including me, but that's okay because I'm stealing and regenerating health just as fast while also being mega-fast in all respects. Only level 40, and I've been doing that consistently for about ten to fifteen levels.

I'm sure this questions has been addressed, but not in the last three pages.

If I were to start a commando to mostly max turret related skills, would that hinder me going into the later game? I got this game today and the commando's play style seems like something I could get into. The Mechromancer too, but for whatever reason, she bothers me.

If you're just starting the game fresh as a commando, the middle tree might be better suited for that. It has some good all-around skills that just plain buff gun damage and grenade damage and other handy things like dampening recoil and making your turret set off a nuke when you deploy it. It can also be good to build into the left tree while you're at it because that will allow the turret to stay out longer too.

I'd recommend going to the left tree, all the way down to the Rocket Pads. Then move to the right and spec down to Double Turrets.
The left side is all about getting the most out of the Turret, with eventually adding a second gun to it with Slag (I believe).
The right side is all about staying alive, and there are some great Class Mods later that take Grit and Last Ditch Effort up a notch.

This. Though there are a few other builds that are equally effective, just dependent on different gear. I went mania/fire, and I basically dive into every zone head first until my firehawk shield goes then run around slagging while my novas mop up. Occasionally I'll get low enough on health that I'll have to hit rampage, but most of the time I just do it cuz it's fun. If I do fall over then a couple of norfleet rounds gets me right back up.

I went all the way through Bloodshot Ramparts without a shield, rampaged on warden then ran around letting novas kill the adds that spawn. Easiest ever, but if I didn't have a ridiculous version of the firehawk it would have been a little more difficult.
