I've got a WTF, although I'm not sure why anyone would want a 50 1340.

GT is FREE SHRUGS if you're interested.

Hambone got me covered for awhile with all the shields he dropped last night. I learned that you don't wear WTFs while sniping and you definitely don't wear one when you're by yourself because you're going down alot from those IED grenades. Also two people wearing the Hoplite plus ES glitched Infinity pistols makes Master Gee a chump. Once we had his shields down we were averaging 15-20 seconds to kill him and we could just sit there and tank. As for the 1340 shield, I've always gone for the shotgun so I have no idea what the shield does. I looked it up on the wiki and it looks like and just an average shield that talks so unless someone has one they're willing to dupe I'll never get it.

It ignores Hyperius' shield.

That's its notable effect

I was just playing with it with the ES glitch on, it removes the arc and speeds up the spear. I got to 188 Infinity stacks and tried it out and the game didn't give me damage numbers. Either things were instantly gibbed or they didn't take damage at all. I'm not sure what to make of that. My previous opinion has been reversed I love it.

Also the 12 pounder is really cool and smacking dudes in the face with an exploding bowling ball is super fun.

So I'm trying to farm some E-Tech guns and I was using the Leviathan's treasure room to do it, but I had a friend join my game after the chests were open and the game saved them being open. Is there another that's farmable like that by dashboarding? I was thinking the armory for Nakayama but, I believe the game locks you out after you get near the fast travel and reset.

I've bought the meteor shower and it is awesome, but the evolution shield is not this awesome thing I thought It'd be. I also bought the interfacer shotgun but I guess it's like a slightly better conference call, which isn't that great anyway.

I've been spending all of my seraph crystals on Hoplites and Ahabs. But, now that I have the best Ahab I'm not sure which seraph gun to start spending crystals on. I'm thinking lead storm because of it's effect.

The colors of rarity go: white, green, blue, purple, magenta, orange. All red text weapons(unique/legendary) are either blue or orange. All unique weapons earned as a reward for a quest are blue. All etech weapons use 2 ammo per shot no matter what(my railer has 6 capacity but can only fire 3 shots because of this). Legendary(orange) weapons are usually the best weapons in the game and can drop anywhere but specific weapons have a better drop rate with specific characters( I.e. been boom drops the bonus package at higher rate but can also drop a stormfront).

Pink weapons are dlc guns bought from seraph vendors with seraph crystals. Seraph crystals drop from dlc raid bosses.

I forgot about the deadly bloom, but I'm reading the wiki and there is apparently a hidden purple unique shield called the cracked sash. Are you sure about the flame? I have level 50 one that I'm pretty sure is a blue.

Would you be able to bring someone else who isn't level 50 in to boost off that?

Yeah. Running into the gate before activating it apparently tricks the game into thinking you have 4 players, so that's Hyperious's 4-player health.

So while farming Hyperious is definitely faster, I can't help but feel that Pyro Pete just has a better drop rate. I got a hornet, doc's mercy, sledge's shotgun, 2 bonnies, a firebee, a gnasher, and an unkempt harold in the span of normally running out of eridium.

All right so more grinding notes. Pyro Pete seems to a 1/4 and 1/5 chance of dropping a legendary and his loot pool is definitely the same as Hyperious and Master Gee. If you do start grinding Pete be aware that you will get duplicates, I now have four different bouncing bonnies. However I've also gotten a neogenator, a skullsmaher, two quasars and three legendary class mods from his(the soldier one was better than the one that was given to me).

Now for E-tech grinding, the absolute best place is the Treasure Room in the Oasis dlc during the leviathan quest. You have someone join you while you are still inside the leviathan(this is a must, a friend joined while I was in the treasure room and it saved the quest as completed) and proceed as normally. Once all the chests are open, give your friend whatever items you want to keep and dashboard/Home. When you restart the server you will be back inside the leviathan with quest reset to kill him/enter the treasure room. Repeat as needed.

Now if you are like me and goofed hard and the quest is completed your next best bet are some "rare" chests. What I'm talking about specifically are the two red Dahl chests in Caustic Caverns and I don't feel like explaining where there are so here's a youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZi36xCWS3Q
I've gotten a homing storm front from them level 50 pretty much right off the bat so I'd say it's worth it.

I'm almost at the end of TVHM without any glitching and aside from some "oh gently caress this" moments that were pretty much the same "oh gently caress this" moments in the first playthrough, it hasn't been that terrible so long as I keep up with the latest and killingest guns.

I'm playing using a Gunzerker and at this point I spend more time in Gunzerk mode than out, so maybe that's what you need to make it fun. I know being able to hold the triggers down and point in the general direction of whatever I want to die, gleefully throwing homing transfusion grenades to mop up the rest, is working out pretty good for me.

Playing with other people helps too, if for nothing else than enemy health doesn't refill when you die. Now that I'm level 50 and ready to break the game, if one of you guys wants to throw an Evil Smasher and an Infinity my way I'd be glad to take them.

2.5 scales everything to 50, so you can get the best version of loot(Oh, MorningStar tell me more about how I'm a monster:allears:)
