I'm doing the mission with the Gluttonous Thresher, and ho boy I keep dying and dying and dying as a Cunning Zer0. Most of my weapons are still level 37-38, because I went back to PT1 to do some DLC and arena sidemissions. Even the normal surveyers kills me at this point, so if you open the Golden chest in PT1, but you're level 40, does the purples scale to 40 or are they locked at level 30 like everything else in PT1?

I've been farming Jimmy Jenkins for hours and at this point I would rather start a new Maya to get the 100 phaselock trophy and then join as my PT2 Zer0 later during the Doctors Orders quest. Would Zer0 get the badass challenge for killing Jimmy Jenkins or would Maya get it, since her playthrough will be hosting the game?

Maya would get it since all the challenges would be reset for a new character. Your best bet is to find a goon who hasn't finished Doctor's Quest and join their game with Maya, then hope he shows up.

Strange, I've completed one of the challenges I was doing as Zero and Maya's HUD didn't show anything. Also I guess they patched it because I've been doing ten runs in co-op, several as Zer0 and a few as Maya and I have yet to see a single Loot Midget.

Or you could find a friend who is to the correct part of the Doctor's Orders quest. Which I am.

How does that quest/Jimmy Jenkins work anyways?
Is there a certain flag, other than starting the quest, then you need to trigger?

Has anyone had a problem with chests that won't open, because it never shows the "press X to open" thing no matter where on the box you put the cursor? I have run into that twice I think, most recently the treasure hunting quests in the caustic caverns. I got the unique gun it gives you but that chest that came up out of the ground, I could not get it open. After five minutes of pointing the cursor at every pixel on the box's surface I gave up and left.

Leave the Caverns and go back to the top of the warehouse, and you should be able to open the chest (it's just a normal red Dahl chest). Also loot goliaths requires a lot of pixel hunting if they die on a slope for some reason.

Can anyone help me kill Terramorphus and add me as a PSN friend? I need the "Revive someone on your friendslist" trophy but I do not have any PS3 friends with BL2, and I'm still too undergeared to get Terramorphus below 60% HP.

edit; Thanks Marogareh for putting up with my inability to be good at this game and helping me kill some Terramorphuses. :tipshat:

I got 1 key, like always?


Ok so I don't really know much about endgame stuff as I'm only level 14, but is the general consensus to avoid as many side-quests a possible until I reach the third playthrough?

Do all sidequests in the first playthrough, kill the final boss and start playthrough 2. Do not start any sidequests in playthrough 2 before killing the final boss again.

I cannot find the DLC in the store or in-game. Does Europe usually get that stuff later?

Just tried the Loot Midget run in the Wildlife preserve for the first time. Two runs, two pearlescents :stare:

Does the Doctors Orders trick work for farming Jimmy Jenkins again? I tried to do it on a new character a while ago and I only saw one hyperion soldier midget in 30 runs.

Wailing depths, the four platform trap, I've used 2M$ on dying again and again and again and please tell me that there is another way to do this.


edit: Second platform, I cannot get to the third without being crushed by the ceiling or other platform.

I had this exact same problem. Died over and over and over again until finally I timed the platforms rising and falling and managed to get through just barely. Pretty loving horrible area!

Closed the game and restarted it, and completed it in first try. I guess one of them was out of sync, because there was no room to go from platform 2 -> 3. :shrug:
