Nisha has a skill where after she gets a kill all her bullets start dealing spontaneous explosive damage.

But half the rest of her gun skills want non elemental weapons.

Clap Trap gets a action pack that will toss out like a million grenades. It's called Torgue Fiesta. Therefore Clap Trap is the best.

... Oh god what did I just say?

I never found Sub-Level 13 but the shock drop pit I'm pretty sure is over by the basketball court in <whatever zone that was i don't remember>

I know it's a bit of a small group of effected people kinda problem but the game freaks out at 1440P resolution .

Can you better describe the issues that you're experiencing? I've been playing Borderlands 2 and Pre-Sequel with no obvious problems at 2560x1440.

Did BL2 have zone-specific Badass Rank achievement things that you only had one shot at per playthrough?

I'm going through the list and seeing a bunch of stuff I can't do anymore, stuff like "destroy a thing before you get the quest to destroy it" and "destroy a thing using something other than your guns," and I can't remember anything in BL2 only giving you one shot per playthrough to do it.

Defending both turrets as the gate leading to the final zone in vanilla BL2 was one shot only.

I only got the Meat Unicycle action package like 3 times in the whole 20 hours I played :(

But I did kill like, all of the end game bosses with pirate ship cannonballs so that pretty much made up for it.

Gotta be honest, considering picking Claptrap just because of that. It's the 1812 overture man, I love that poo poo.

'Son of a taint,' wasn't funny the first time... and it seems that's the catchphrase they're going to ride on repeatedly.

The irony here is, I never found Claptrap or Tiny Tina annoying.

For the hell of it I tried the Japanese version of the game, wondering if the translation improved it at all. It didn't. About the same percentage of the jokes fell flat, which is most of them.

Are there no localization companies for English to Japanese for the videogame industry? I'd imagine by now something like that would have popped up.

I'll join this club too. I can't find Claptrap annoying because everyone else in the game finds him annoying which makes me want to shove him in their faces even more until their eyes roll so fast they break the sound barrier!

Edit: Can we get a gun that shoots claptraps?

I'm surprised they haven't done a voice weapon for Claptrap like that robot weapon in BL2 and the Bogan Chick weapon in this one.

I did every sidequest and including some extra stuff and standing around, my playthrough took 21 hours. Not bad! I'm gonna play through the game on TVHM too just to see if UVHM is the only unlock after it. Claptrap is so drat fun that I don't want to stop!

I'm really hoping they don't bring back UVHM. If they insist on it, at least make it so you don't die if you get sneezed at and literally all your ammo to kill a boss/badass enemy.

Have they changed how skill points from class mods worked? Cause I saw a lvl 10 mod for Nisha with the Tombstone skill on it, which is all the way down its tree. Or have class mods always been weird like that?

I actually like Claptrap a lot more after playing through as him, he's quite a bit more sympathetic. And still funny.

He was always funny. :colbert:

I never really cared for Moxxi, to be completely honest. I mean, I don't hate her, but I never really understood why she needed to be in every game since her debut.

Well, she had a funny scene in this game at least.

My friend made the interesting point that there's no slag in this game so there can probably not be a UVHM, which can either be a good thing (no UVHM poo poo) or a bad thing (UVHM anyways but without slag)

That effect only seems good if you can oneshot people through the shield, otherwise they'll take the same amount of bullets, just in a different order if you get what I mean.

As far as I can tell the two don't conflict. You still get the notification that these abilites are active when one of the on-kill explosive abilities activates, whereas if you equip an elemental weapon they never show up at all. Which is good, because it'd be really lovely if one ability in a tree negated another one in the same tree.

Nisha seems almost unfair after playing as Zero and the Gunzerker in borderlands 2. Apart from one boss fight where I didn't get the mechanic at first, I haven't died once to enemy fire. Her active is on a 15 second cooldown (less for me now) and once you get the hang of switching targets, you can generally clear out the entire room in seconds through the iron sights.

I'm at level 10 with Nisha and I haven't died yet. From being killed by enemies, I mean. I've died several times due to circumstances involving vehicles, cliffs, and lava.

The one in Dead Space is pretty cool. Although that game doesn't have a mini-map.

This is, sadly, more important to me than bettering myself.

I was backtracking to the vending machines in the center of the the Hyperion Heroism Hub and I ran into a named Dahl Marine named Corporal Bob. I killed him and he dropped a legendary OZ kit called the 'Ack Ack;' it grants stacks that give damage/fire rate bonuses upon killing flying enemies. It also has a chance to generate 'Flak' around enemies.

If only I had a Flakker. :stare:
