Wasn't BorderWorlds trademarked shortly after BL2 came out?

In general knoxx you fight your way through atlas mooks while the general let's you know just how tired of everything he is. It's not bad.

Robot Revolution was the grindiest grind fest ever.

Knoxx was awesome and not just because it raised the level cap on BL1 to 61, but it gave the player access to Knoxx's vault which in true gearbox fashion was easy to get into a million times and not just the once twice for the mission. Crawmerax was decently easy once you figured out the ledges where that you can hide on. And the new rarity guns were nice to collect as well. Some of the lance soldiers were bullet sponges (especially the acid resistant ones) and Mr Shank could be a tough fight as well, but I think it is the best DLC they have done so far. I did not buy Tiny Tina's as I was burnt out of BL2 by the time it came out.

Knoxx was a great character. If I remember correctly, they also did a "Ask Knoxx" thing on Twitter for a while, you might be able to still find the logs somewhere.

Well for the second time everything in my stash has disappeared.
Badass points keep getting reset but I can recover them by loading the different characters. Still I have to redo all the points again.

Also got this going on



Its a bug that showing the menu prompt for it, but they haven't patched it in yet. When they do add it it is going to be free at least. Sucks that your poo poo keeps getting deleted.

What some people have been seeing after the latest update looks to be a bug that exposes the menu framework for that third playthrough -- problem is, the accompanying content isn't there yet. We're still wrapping up work on Ultimate Vault Hunter mode and will add that to the game in a future update that will make UVHM function properly.

drat I hosed up and went into TVHM at level 27, so now I'm only at 32 and the story mission is 35. This wouldn't be a problem except there aren't any side quests at my level either, they are all 35 or 36. Everything one shots me. The only option I see is just keep grinding the open world until I get to at least level 34 but that will take a while, there aren't that many enemies even roaming around at my level.

Just go back to the first playthrough and kill Iwajira/the sentinel till you get a few more levels in.


Switching from a +2 to a +4 celestial lawbringer has made tvhm a lot more manageable for me at level 42.

I thought Moxie was one of the worst ones they did, mostly because there's very little payoff for your hard work.

By far. The long arenas were an absolute slog to get through without failing, and they didn't give any experience, weapon proficiencies, or any loot worth a drat.

And that's assuming you could get through all 20 rounds without the game crashing and losing all your work. (I couldn't. After the second time, I gave up.)

My roommate and I did it with 1 low level character and then a high level one who did all the killing. It still took a long rear end time so both of us could get the achievements.

And it is going to have a mission that ties it into the Tales game as well.

I think I've hosed myself on my Nisha. I've been slightly underleveled since I hit TVHM , but I figured I'd just push on through it and the extra xp would catch me up. As I approach the Drakensberg, however, I find that it's just getting harder and harder because I'm level 30 and fighting level 34 enemies with skulls next to them. I went to do sidequests to catch up, but that only got me to 31 before I ran out of quests that aren't in that big white area outside Concordia that scales apparently with story mission rather than with player level, so it's full of super badasses that one-shot my shield and then my health. Other than finding a suitable map and grinding I have no idea how to catch up.

Go back to normal and kill Iwajira half a dozen times.

Nisha with Vladof auto pistol(s) is both very awesome, and a quick way to run out of ammo. I always found hitting both triggers to fire jacobs pistols not so fun.

I really want to like Nisha but I don't know how to play her properly. I'm using the dual pistol skill and I just run out of ammunition constantly.

Its been forever since I've played TPS but yeah she can do that very easily, especially on a high fire rate vladof pistol. I always kept a shotgun and a beam laser on switch to use when running low on pistol ammo. Showdown works with anything really.
