I've played Borderlands 2 through a few times. IDK if the other BL2 threads did anything like this, and while while I'm sure you're not really concerned with this *right* now, but it might be a good idea to 'cheat' at whatever ends up being appropriate levels with a save editor, because if you're even remotely thorough with the side quests, Arenas, and DLC, you can easily soar past the levels that certain content caps out at. It'd also probably let you switch to new character classes mid play through so you can try and show them all off, and you can tinker with things such that you can shift your quest progress from one play through to another, which should let you keep everything at an appropriate level without having to beat the whole game again. If there's one thing that has been a constant bugbear for me and my friends playing this series of games, it's been the level cap system.

This. Not to mention the default drop rates for legendary weapons are stupid-small. No, no, it's worse than you think.
Cheat Engine cites the default drop rate for health/ammo pick-ups as 200.
Whites are 100
Greens are 10
Blues are 1
Legendary Orange is 0.00999999978 (otherwise known as "gently caress-all")

This table works well for the regular mode, but for NG+ and the arenas you need ~blue quality or better. Really, making that last one a 1 does a lot to improve the BL2 experience, especially since orange guns have lotsa fun effects! :)
