You have been a most worthy adversary, but in every game, there are winners and there are losers. And as you know, in this game, losers get robotizicized!

I've been working up a Mechromancer and just figured something out the other day: if you accidentally manually reload, you can quickly fire a shot and manually reload again and it'll cancel your Anarchy stacks burning. You'll usually lose about 5 on a quick-reloading gun. Also, you can reload-cancel by switching to another gun during the reload animation to stop them from burning at all if you're alert enough.
Just quick tap the menu button and it will cancel your reloading. Don't forget mechros can use infinite discord without speccing into it using the glitch as well

Or you can solve the reloading issue entirely by rocking four Infinities of different flavors, the tradeoff of which is being completely insane from grinding Doc Mercy for five or six hours. :getin:

edit: Aw, gently caress! With Gaige's ammo reducting skills that are required to use the anarchy tree, the Infinity has 0 clip size and therefore cannot fire. :gonk:

One of the new dlc mods fix that. But it's probably not worth it.

Are the DLC raid bosses lower level on Normal playthrough? I'm not interested in doing a bunch of grinding up to 50+ again but I do want to get the most achievements I can. I finished the Tiny Tina DLC on Normal and the dragons are one of the only things I have left to do for the DLC so I am wondering if I can have some friends join my game and we can take the Normal dragons out easier.

Yes. Think dragons are 34-36 on normal. I helped my partner do that on their Normal Psycho with my 61 Siren and popped that achievement.

Is the Discord glitch still around? I heard it got patched but I haven't tried since.

Oh and if you're worried about losing stacks and don't want to run Discord, always have something like a Striker or Orphan Maker on you. Actually gently caress it Mechros should have an Orphan Maker anyway.

Sorry for the double-post but what's the best class mod to work for for Anarchy Mechro? Both the Terra Slayer and Legendary class mods for Gaige use from 40% to half of the modded skills in the middle skill tree, which uh...really loving sucks.

I'd probably go with a Punk class mod. Decreased magazine size, increase fire rate, plus points in The Better Half and SFL, so basically even more decreased mag size and even more fire rate. Try for a blue one since the other skill in the purple version is Annoyed Android and honestly who uses that?

I did :colbert: And, it was the best with a black hole shield when dt zipped across the room pulling everything with him (then pushing them all back with his explosive clap :black101:)


A Chaotic Neutral/Evil Necromancer class mod (+Fire Rate /+Mag Size or critical dmg) with +6 Made of Sterner Stuff/+5 Strength of 5 Gorillas is pretty great for both you and deathtrap. Almost 60%+ melee damage for him and both of you get a 10% damage reduction from MoSS if you got it up to 10/5 skill points.

Is the Mechro middle tree really bad? It's what I've been speccing into and I enjoy all the shock damage boosters? But shock damage ain't really all that great.

At higher levels, the shock explosions will completely vaporize enemies who are standing near each other. It's mostly useful for crowd clearing, but without a combination of the middle and left (maybe anarchy too?) trees, it won't be effective into the endgame.

Honestly, Wires Don't Talk is pretty much the only skill worth getting, but with a Catalyst mod it's good enough to justify the points in whatever it takes to get there. Strength of Five Gorillas is okay but it seems out of place in the skill tree; I'd gladly trade it for either Cooking Up Trouble or The Better Half. Shock is pretty much the best element because it's not bad against anything, and at level 61 pretty much the only weapon I need to use is the Florentine.

I just got to the rescue Roland mission (where handsome jack already took him). I've been having tons of fun with Axton and his Turret girlfriend on this mission, blowing up hyperion junk with my shock sniper rifle, exploding assault rifle, and inflammatory SMG. This is good stuff.

I always use them in the low to mid 40s, because the damage starts scaling exponentially there to the point that even legendaries are trash after a couple levels.

So, I've been going through the Captain Scarlett DLC and I found a yellow diamond waypoint on the map. Like a regular quest waypoint but yellow with a little picture of something inside. It was near the sofa where you pick up the explosives in Oasis. Does anyone know what's up with that?

If I'm thinking of the right area that should be the customize/re-spec station. I remember being confused by it as well since it overlaps a store or something else on the minimap.

I can be more specific, it showed up on a cliff. The sofa should be in a shipwreck surrounded by stalkers and the dynamite is part of the Burying the past sidequest. The cliff has a bonfire, I think it lit up when I got near it but that might be rendering and there are two or three palm trees. the icon shows up right around there.

edit: nevermind, I'm not seeing it anymore, it must've been a glitch or something.

So I was farming the loot midget room this morning and so far I've had 2 legendary drops fall right through the floor. I thought that maybe I was killing them too fast (phaselocking as they jump out before they even hit the floor) so I started letting them walk out into the big hallway, but their poo poo still occasionally drops right through the floor. What gives? This ever happen to anyone else?

Anybody have a lvl 61 Infinity they could dupe for me? I've only just learned how easy duping is, so I don't have a lot to offer in trade: a lvl 52 pearlescent Jakobs gun and a lvl 50 legendary psycho class mod seem like they'd be the most interesting in terms of rarity. I also have a bunch of random 61 legendaries that you've probably already got if you have an infinity.

YES. Finally took my Mechro through Normal. I imagine if I get through the DLC I'll be pretty set to be ahead of the curve if I send hand-me-down gear from my Gunzerker to get through the absolute bear that is the early 40s in TVHM? My Zerker is just at the 'rescue Roland' mission and should be 61 by the end if I keep pushing through, but that mission and the segment between the the liftoff of Sanctuary and the reaching the city is the hardest part of the game on any difficulty. God. At least the SWORDSPLOSION!!! :torgue: is amazing and keeps making me happy. Unless I miscalculated a hit from all three swords causes around 500k damage.

Also, Badass Constructors and their ilk are way, way harder than any (non-raid) boss.
