Claptrap's completely random skills that encourage you to switch to weapons of the correct type will be either amazing or a complete headache. I look forward to him. Wilhelm looks like a neat combination of Gaige and Axton, and I'm looking forward to totally Captain American-ing it as Athena. The game designers don't get enough credit for coming up with just plain interesting mechanics.

Hagop posted:I think Maliawn troops would just be the deckers from SR3. Hey, they were the most fun enemies to fight in that game, that'd be awesome. I could give a wet fart over my interest in Destiny but the PreSequel is probably going to be a must-own for me. If they were feeling REALLY nasty they could have a DLC side-mission where the questgiver just says: "You must TRAVEL HERE and DEFEAT THE DARKNESS. It is your DESTINY." (and of course it's fighting through a wave of enemies to light a candle)

They all look good to me, really. I don't know if we'll ever get a character who is as totally freaking insane to play as Krieg ( I mean, Krieg has EXPLOSIONS OF LIFE! ) but Claptrap looks close.

Nisha looks like she's really good at killing individual targets, just blowing straight through the one thing unlucky enough to be in her sights. I wonder if Claptrap's Vaulthunter.exe program actually DOES determine its effect from your environment and it's not totally random.

Only dabbled in two characters so far, but Claptrap is pretty interesting. I completely blew through some enemies with Funzerker.exe and Clappy said "Don't ask me where these bullets are coming from!" Athena's Aspis is amazing. I see a bunch of bad guys, I raise my shield and make sure to face the guys trying to kill me and nothing happens to me! HAHAHAHAHAH! BRING IT ON!

Infinity Gaia posted:I've only found the really basic stuff that's just stuff three of the same rarity same item type into the machine and get a chance at an item a rarity higher, but considering the fact that tossing three purples in isn't a valid combination, and that there's an achievement for getting an orange out of the grinder, I assume it is actually true that there's secret recipes. Check the badass ranks, there's ranks for discovering recipes.

I kind of liked the intro. Pre-Handsome Jack was less "hohohoho, what a COLOSSAL rear end in a top hat I am" and more like an adrenaline junkie with Hyperion wrist-guns. Also, throwing us straight into an invasion was a much more dynamic intro.

So for Claptrap self-heals, aside from his excellent Action Skill that fully regenerates himself, what skill is better for healing, Maniacal Laughter or the on-kills one? I'm thinking Maniacal Laughter is better for bosses, and for teamwork, but... Also, does his All The Things Are Awesome improve everyone in the team?

Matrix-7 posted:Ah cool, I must be getting pretty close to that part then, thanks for the info. I haven't done any side-quests yet and wasn't sure if it was from one of those littered around Concordia. And yeah, having only 2 slots is a pain in the rear end. You think it's a pain in the rear end for a regular character, it's even worse for a Fragmented Fragtrap.

Unlucky7 posted:Is Claptrap a decent solo character? I kind of want to try out a couple of the other characters. Surprisingly so, particularly if you go down his left tree. I'm getting lots of free heals on kills and just unlocked a tier 2 ability that makes all of his regular bullets sometimes EXPLODE when shooting enemies. His Action Skill is good for variety's sake and at worst will at least heal you to full every time you use it. (Getting Funzerker when you are using Tediore shotguns is AMAZING)

Looks like Athena doesn't have any health regen on her Maelstrom tree, so I guess if you were multi-treeing it'd be best to get it from her defensive left tree? I don't think it'd mesh well with the Xiphos bleed tree.

Dr. Arbitrary posted:Whatever you say about the writing, whoever decided to call the Psychos "Lunatics" deserves a high five. There's a lot of little things I like. Kraggons being asteroids monsters means they're not a reskin of skags, even if they are way more annoying to fight and resistant to heat weapons. I like the way containers in space will sometimes pop off their tops and the lid goes flying.

He and the other lady are already on the game disc on consoles which is not surprising since they already said they were coming pretty early on (but people are still whining about it like big babies anyway). Click here if you wanna be spoiled on his action skill. Haha, that's about what I figured that character would have. Nice.

Willhem Users: Does Supresssion (the thing in the left tree that improves your fire rate for you and for Wolf by a TON) does it trigger on Wolf killing something too or just yourself? Basically I'm asking if I can just sit back and make Wolf murder EVERYTHING.

SunAndSpring posted:Athena's pretty cool and her left and right trees are pretty good. The middle tree is kind of weak because it's melee-focused and those always suck unless it's Krieg. Yeah, it looks interesting. Instead of summoning one pet, you summon MANY expendable doubles who just rush the enemy in a small flood.

Claptrap has TWO "make myself stronger when downed" skills. And a skill that lets him draw aggro and explode when in FFYL. Properly-specced he should be very, very, VERY difficult to kill. The best-buds skill also makes everyone tougher and regenerate after reviving someone. He may be an even better team player than Maya was in Borderlands 2.

Dopple Jack is pretty different from Willhelm, he doesn't get auto regeneration when his Digi Jacks are out. Looking forward to trying out his skill that gives you different brand bonuses for weapon swapping.
