Alright who was the moron that decided to bring back the best purple shotgun from the first game (Sledge's Shotgun) and get rid of its knockback ability? That's just dumb and without that I can't think up any reason to possibly use the new version.

Whoever said using the Chulainn in TVHM wasn't worth the risk is objectively wrong. On my Shock mechro I can rip through just about everything using only that weapon. loving love this smg.

Bobfly posted:Hm. I tried playing this with my brother, but we only played the beginning bits, and he got bored really quickly. Said he didn't understand a thing of what was going on, and he hated the fact that he had to read things to understand what was going on (which I found strange, considering the amount of time he spends with World of Warcraft, but whatever). Maybe it's because he played Zer0 as a sniper, I don't know. Sniping always seemed a bit boring to me. But I really like this game, and I'd like to play it with him, so... Any ideas to what I can do to entice him to play playstation games with me? Play ahead a bit and get him in at a slightly later stage? Get him to try gunzerker. Specifically, have him try at the bare minimum a level five gunzerker. It's great since it doesn't require much reading to get right as opposed to deception or sniping in general. If he doesn't find that fun then obviously he doesn't understand fun.

TheGreatGildersneeze posted:I just take the skill that allows me to keep Gunzerking when I'm in FFYL. Really puts the truth into Salvador's "THIS DOESN'T CHANGE ANYTHING; YOU'RE STILL GONNA DIE!" bit. I've found that keeping a rocket launcher in one of my slots helps, especially since I have a Waka 12 Pounder that does 350K base damage (although that one has a bouncing grenade shot instead of a rocket, so you gotta hit dead on) and another Torgue that does about 275K base. Hyperion "Critcal Thinking" slag shotgun in the other slot for that pair and well, not much lives through over half a mil's worth of damage. If you get a second wind off that your second wind timer resets. I only know because I go down a lot using he Chullaine and get back up almost immediately thanks to it + a shock enhanced death trap.

Question for you guys. My buddy and I finished the torgue dlc just now and after the credits he got an error message. It was something along the line of "Error: To start ?win? NAME_PLAYTHROUGH_3 you must finish all quests." Anyone know anything about this? Edit: I guess I should clarify that this was on xbox, it was lan play, and it's an unmodified system so willow tree, or whatever the modding tool is, isn't a factor here.

Don't know what I've done to piss off the game tonight but I've fought nothing but badass enemies. The kicker? Loads of them were using amp shields with torgue weapons. Then there was the bandit camp of Juggernauts dual wielding launchers.....

Kifisonfire posted:If they increase the level cap and add in a playthrough 3, then that will be awesome. If not then I'll keep getting to use my level 50 legendaries and have fun with the DLC. I'm not fussed either way, just want more Borderlands. Honestly I want them to do something interesting with the increased level cap instead of "Here's more levels. Now you can have two ultimate's." I mean we got that in the first game and it was boring as hell. It's partly why my friends and I didn't want an increased level cap. Another playthrough is perfectly fine though.

I really wish there was a way to skip past the fights you do with Lilith and Roland, more so Lilith just because her introductory fight is the most annoying fight in the whole game. "Oh hey need a revive? Let me just phaseblast these enemies you were trying to get a revive off. Wait those are badasses and you actually need my help? gently caress that noise, you've obviously got it. I'm just gonna chill over here and not do a loving thing."

Sorry to interrupt dlc chat but I was wondering if anyone knows where I can look up each character's melee damage. After doing a bit of testing between my mechromancer and soldier I learned that gaige does actually do far less melee damage than the other classes. At first I thought it was the skills I was using on axton that let him do more melee damage but it wasn't. I tested this on crystalisks by taking everything off my axton, except for a purple torgue pistol with no melee boosting properties, and taking away all his skills. Even with nothing equipped and no skill points in any slot I was still able to two shot each of the crystalisks weak points. Whereas with gaige still equipped with her normal gear and all her skill points still in place it took me about 13 hits on each of the crystalisks weak points to kill it. I just want to know what each character's base melee stats are and why gaige's are so much lower than everyone else's.

Having a love thumper be that much more badass is a nice thought. I hope if they increase the level cap they also tweak the drop rates for things. I'm on my second day of farming doc mercy for an infinity and I haven't gotten anything better than a white off him.

The Duke posted:Honestly if I'm going to be farming raid bosses I just do the Smasher glitch on my favorite gun and keep a Norfleet ready incase I go down. If you get a high enough stack you can kill Voracidous in about 30 seconds after headshotting his witch doctor with the Trespasser. I actually sold my evil smasher cause the glitch got annoying after a while. Like, it would glitch up my character so that even though I didn't have it equipped I'd randomly lose a whole magazine worth of ammo with no damage buff. And I've never gotten vermivorous to spawn so I don't have a norfleet.
