because poop game

nocturne mist
#

im looking at her skill tree rn for when i play bl1

#

and she has so many melee buffs

wind token
#

also, could be lowkey nice on krieg

nocturne mist
#

finna nut

#

axton

wind token
#

i need to lowkey check in depth how perfect parts change for krieg

nocturne mist
#

bandit grip sadly

wind token
#

like, it's crazy that matching grip is just garbage

#

because krieg already has it in his kit

nocturne mist
#

idek

tiny thorn
#

@wind token & @real oracle
What about this??

nocturne mist
#

i just know what they look lke and what different parts do sort of

#

grab buzzaxe bomberdier

wind token
nocturne mist
#

you ralso really want thrill of the kill

nocturne mist
#

also why strip the flesh on a melee build that doesnt have the explosive skill?

wind token
#

to make things short: this is mine

nocturne mist
#

why redeem the soul?

wind token
#

ffyl time?

tiny thorn
wind token
#

it's only 1 point for +50% ffyl

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

oh you right

wind token
nocturne mist
#

its nice

wind token
#

again: it's a melee build

nocturne mist
#

but heath

#

shhh

wind token
#

you get full hp per kill

nocturne mist
#

ik im wrong shh

#

shaddap

wind token
#

arguably yes, you get more health when getting out of ffyl

#

but i wouldnt bother

nocturne mist
#

buzzaxe bonberdier chat

wind token
#

yeah definitely grab that

#

your rotation in melee krieg is get melee kill -> spam axes

#

then once your fuel the blood expires repeat

wind token
nocturne mist
wind token
#

you will not be able to use grenades other than the time where you wait to be low hp

nocturne mist
#

i mean maybe magic misille? but thats just for slag before popping it

#

i was thinking to keep slag grenades or smth up

wind token
#

well i get bbath too

#

im just saying the proc is irrelevant

nocturne mist
#

but

wind token
#

well actually, you meant the grenade drop

nocturne mist
#

hear me out

wind token
#

yeah that is true

nocturne mist
#

yes grenade drop

wind token
#

i was thinking the damage buff

nocturne mist
#

so he can slag stuff if he wants to? idk

wind token
#

but yeah the grenade is true

wind token
nocturne mist
#

whenever i play melee krieg i dont bother grabbing it

wind token
#

and slag with slagga while waiting for low hp

nocturne mist
#

one of my favorate things to do on krieg is explosive fastball and just walking around with bb and slagga

#

just press g wrinse and repeat

#

man gaige would be so busted if she had axton or kriegs swap speed

#

or so much more broken

tiny thorn
#

@wind token
What about 1 in Flame Flare instead of Redeem?

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

imo neither are better

#

both are good and depends on the situation

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

i prefer explosive over melee because i dont like how braindead melee is sometimes

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

i mean

#

thats one way to play him

#

you can say the exact same thing about every vaullt hunter

#

"all maya does is hit f and shoot sandhawk" "all sal does is shoot twice" "all gaige does is press one button" "all zero does is shoot one shot and bore kills everything"

wind token
tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

what im saying is its mostly wrong

wind token
#

hold on, i noticed something bad, let me respec

nocturne mist
#

its just overly simplifying things

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

you can make this arguement about games not being hard as well

wind token
#

actually this

#

i dont know why i had fire fiend

nocturne mist
#

wait

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

its not needed when you have a pandemic constantly stacking for you

wind token
#

i just had a brainer when i saved this skill tree

wind token
#

so either reload speed or longer stack duration

nocturne mist
#

woah man im on my krieg brake

#

relax bucko

#

im getting gaige to op 10 and then im playing bl1 and then bl3 dlcs on my amara bc i just bought them

#

THEN ill get krieg to op 10

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

i dont fw hellborn builds so i have no idea

#

i simply dont like them bc the gear they use is a pain to farm imo

#

or it was when i was farming for it

wind token
#

like, where do you want to take a point away?

#

plus, 1 point doesnt make a whole lot of difference

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

nothing annoys me more as gaige then when im up next to a badass loader and he just knocks me away with 300 stacks so none of my pellets lan d

real oracle
#

do you think this skill is oversaturated zaneLUL

wind token
#

i mean 80% duration is good enough

nocturne mist
#

too much visual clutter make it go to bl3

wind token
#

plus as already said the pandemics will reapply being on fire often enough

tiny thorn
wind token
#

?

#

you get healed for each kill

#

to full hp every time

nocturne mist
#

any build critiques i like my dot anarchy build chat

#

its pretty fun

wind token
#

riiiiiiiight i had this funny guy

#

also this bad boy mozeRotating

nocturne mist
#

i love that flakker

#

i want to eat it

#

jacobs grip so more damage chat

worn coyote
#

I ate it

tall surge
wind token
nocturne mist
#

not flakker

worn coyote
#

Carnage

nocturne mist
#

carnage got them mixed up because casual prefix on torgue shotgun

#

makes me think flakker

worn coyote
nocturne mist
#

ok now

#

with my build which bone do i use

#

do i use shock or fire

worn coyote
#

Depends on what ele your weapons are

tawdry shell
tawdry shell
nocturne mist
#

grog heartbreaker a shock or corrosive topnea depending on enemys and a hydra

wind token
worn coyote
#

Shock bone on shock weap

#

Corro on corro weap

wind token
#

is jakobs or torgue grip more damage though?

worn coyote
#

Fire on fire weap

nocturne mist
#

im not actually sure

#

i think torgue grip would be better because matching but i think jacobs is def still good

cunning sable
nocturne mist
#

carnage

wind token
#

did i just...

nocturne mist
cunning sable
#

I think jakobs has the most raw dps
But for matching grip and dps you would go tourge on carnage

wind token
#

it may not be perfect but hell yeah

nocturne mist
#

erm guys

wind token
#

so matching grip is whatever

worn coyote
cunning sable
#

That hive sucks

nocturne mist
#

what the fuck @wind token

#

how dare you

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

get back to that 0 gear bud...

wind token
#

it was literally first try

cunning sable
nocturne mist
#

i used to think hive was almost guarenteed because id get it everytime i killed saturn

wind token
#

it's still a hive at the end of the day

nocturne mist
#

exaust

cunning sable
#

Rocket speed makws it worse

wind token
#

ah

cunning sable
#

No it fires out faster meaning the inital orb is farther away from the target

wind token
#

the one i already had was this one

cunning sable
#

Other then the exhaust, better

#

Maliwan parts other then the grip are rocket speed

nocturne mist
#

is that bandit grip idk launcher grips

cunning sable
#

If it has a blade on a rocket its bandit

nocturne mist
#

ah okay

#

the only weopon parts i have memorized is pistols and shotguns

#

just because i like th em

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

plus i love tedior grips on shoguns

nocturne mist
cunning sable
tiny thorn
#

I knew that answer was coming

nocturne mist
#

amazing foresight

#

hindsight

#

whats the word

#

hinds like past right

cunning sable
#

Sight

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

im still pissed this dropped

#

i get shams whenever i dont want them

#

i needed this in uvhm not tvhm

cunning sable
#

Thats a sucky sham anyway

nocturne mist
#

i wanted to norfleet spam 😭

#

its still a 3% drop from bunker on story kill

cunning sable
#

Bitch is better smh

nocturne mist
#

i am not using a bitch

#

im playing gaige

#

not maya

cunning sable
#

Still a good gun

wind token
#

i have this one

cunning sable
#

I got this one

nocturne mist
#

its all over my pants

nocturne mist
#

it seems convenient

wind token
#

python part notifier i think

cunning sable
#

Could use your eyes

wind token
#

i know the parts that are important for me without needing to look but its convenient yeah

wind token
nocturne mist
cunning sable
nocturne mist
wind token
#

now out of spite i will kill uranus

#

when the fuck did i get this

cunning sable
wind token
#

i mean could be worse

#

usable for melee at least

cunning sable
#

Dont you want a low lv one for stacks

wind token
#

yeah would be better of course

#

although you have so much survivability with melee so it might not matter probably

real oracle
#

what can zer0 do

tall surge
#

truly a funkland moment

real oracle
#

im too fast

#

could prob use an extra point in speed per speed

cunning sable
#

doesnt pklay zane

ports him into bl2
smh

real oracle
#

shut UP, driver amara counts too

#

the fucking game crashed

#

YOOO crash test dummy did its thing

#

i can fix that

#

yeah he aint livin that

#

this is great

#

TEST DUMMY HAS A LOT OF HEALTH

#

wonder how much damage zer0 can do with max money and a level 1 gun

cunning sable

wind token
#

@nocturne mist can you please leave out your shitty items out of my lobbies?

tidal obsidian
#

What is this item mod?

wind token
#

got the thing mozeRotating

wind token
tidal obsidian
#

The card of the item has the skills with colors and shows grades

tidal obsidian
wind token
#

python part notifier is for the parts

#

the colors are uhh

#

let me check

#

its some txt mod iirc

wind token
tidal obsidian
#

Thanks

zinc gyro
tawdry shell
#

tunguska so fun when you don’t have people yelling in your ear it’s garbage

#

(this applies to a lot of gear)

real oracle
#

this fucking thing is multiplicative to her skill zaneLUL

#

it's also multiplicative with

wind token
#

also i like the the bunny more for that

tiny thorn
#

Melee only Krieg.
Probably with a Rapier, Grog & Roid Shield.
Can the Rapier come in Slag?
Maybe a fire one..
Fire or Slag grenade.

real oracle
#

you dont need a slag rapier if thats what you're wondering

#

but people insist that you do

tiny thorn
#

I forgot to tag @rough galleon

tiny thorn
real oracle
#

leech cant be slag

tiny thorn
#

I feel like I got a MM that was both..

nocturne mist
real oracle
#

kriegs base melee formula in bxr can very much outweigh roid

#

since it has a fucking 5x multiplier on top of a linear scaling term

nocturne mist
#

im confused i cant tell if your agreeing with me or not

real oracle
#

i am

nocturne mist
#

also doesnt rapier just not matter for krieg

#

releast the beast moment

#

just use a slagga only gun you need

#

@tiny thorn

#

i prefer going down my blue tree next but green works aswell

#

but no matter what just make sure you put 5 into close enough

swift forge
#

5/5 preshrunk is a waste of points

#

early-tier points in BFF tree are better than mid-tier points in OC

nocturne mist
#

ah ok ill go respec

zinc gyro
zinc gyro
nocturne mist
#

@swift forge is electrical storm ass or nah

swift forge
#

it's ass

#

put only enough points into preshrunk as you're comfortable with

#

but always remember the math:
400 stacks + close enough = +100% damage
hitting an enemy with 70 stacks > 100% damage
always prefer to hit enemies at low stacks than rely on close enough

nocturne mist
#

i really only need 200 stacks whenever i go over 200 i just pop discord and stop it when i hit 200 again

swift forge
#

I usually do 4/5 pep + 1/5 gorilla

#

there are a ton of otherwise high quality coms that randomly boost gorilla

nocturne mist
#

i dont use dt for damage i just use him for a distraction

swift forge
#

reasonable

#

one pep point is kinda marginal either way

nocturne mist
#

i couldnt pick between more pep or electrical storm

swift forge
#

storm is trash

#

you always stat myelin first, then split five points between pep and gorilla. A lot of random coms boost pep as well so I would always recommend at least 1 point in each

nocturne mist
#

im farming for a blackhole rn then im doing bunker and my final story push

swift forge
#

but if you don't care about randomly getting gorilla to 5/5 for one then whatever

nocturne mist
#

then im farming xp and then op levels

swift forge
#

I wouldn't do exactly what you're doing but it seems fine, you have your bases covered

#

I usually recommend going left tree rather than centre

nocturne mist
#

i tried it

#

i didnt like it all that much

swift forge
#

since you can't guarantee having good shock/elemental guns

nocturne mist
#

this is my gear set up my shields gonna switch to a blackhole soon

#

i dont use herold for damage i just use it for healing

#

i like to throw storm fronts and swap to grog it makes me unkillable its so fun

swift forge
#

white shield lol

nocturne mist
#

its a turtle shield placeholder for now

#

its just a white turtle shield from the vendor 😭

swift forge
#

you use grog to slag?

nocturne mist
#

i have a slagga too but i just use grog

#

i think slaga is over kill for now

#

im gonna use slagga for slagging in op levels but for now grog works

swift forge
#

I used magic missile throughout uvhm, but grenade healing too good in OP levels

#

currently I'm on chain lightning

nocturne mist
#

i might do the same but for my little offmeta build im running rn storm front works better

swift forge
#

seems fine

nocturne mist
#

i need to finish tinas soon ill do it when i set up my moonshot farm

swift forge
#

I think I might swap to slagfusions at op10

nocturne mist
#

or actually when the final quest im just gonna go and do tinas

#

so i can immedietly start farming xp through moonshot farming

#

without having to run through heros pass

#

im not going to complete talon of god though because i might need a on level cc

#

or maybe ill finish it and just use a bee with a underleveled cc

#

this is the current build

cunning sable
#

That black hole sucks

nocturne mist
#

it doenst matter

cunning sable
#

It makes the novas damage better

nocturne mist
#

okay

#

i dont see an issue

real oracle
#

the radius matters more smh

nocturne mist
#

i dont think it matters for now

real oracle
#

shouldnt

nocturne mist
#

only level 65 and im about to push the story

#

parts dont matter yet really exept on my shotgun

#

black hole is great

#

this build is the easiest bunker clumb of my life

nocturne mist
#

you only need 1 point in nth degree not all 5

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

yur

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

you dont need it tbh

#

shotguns/fibber makes it not matter

#

also buckup isnt needed

#

bloodsoaked sheids does what it does but better

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

smgs on gaige is not the play

#

if you want to use smgs just play maya

tiny thorn
tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

also intespeed outburst isnt the best slaging skill in the game but its still good

#

depends on preference

tiny thorn
#

Small gets anarchy faster
Maybe Slow Hand?

nocturne mist
#

i like to use 1-2 shot jacobs shotguns on her

tiny thorn
#

She's not so squishy

nocturne mist
#

hydra twister orphan maker cc heart breaker striker

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

wdym

#

its not the 9th shot it counts pellets

tiny thorn
#

Oh wow

nocturne mist
#

thats why you only need one point

tiny thorn
#

So just 1 pellet flys to another enemy?

nocturne mist
#

yes

#

just free damage

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

id just take one out of cooking up trouble and put all 5 points into interspaced outburst

#

also buck up and explosive clap arent the best

#

but should be fine till uvhm

tiny thorn
tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

yes but gaige swap speed is no where near axton or kriegs

#

so its easier if you dont have to swap sometimes

#

if you use a slag grenade though i guess you dont really need it

real oracle
#

IO is still shit :)

nocturne mist
#

then why does every build on the gaige doc use it

real oracle
#

ask vi i didnt make it

#

prob cuz every other skill is also shit

wind token
nocturne mist
#

tunguska is torgue

wind token
#

then nvm

#

thought i looked it up when i sent it but probably misread

nocturne mist
#

is this sham ass

#

i mean ittle work

#

also you can use other shoguns/certain pistols

#

like i love using ravagers on her

tiny thorn
#

Or, is Anarchist pretty good?

nocturne mist
#

what

#

like the class mod?

tiny thorn
#

Yes

#

Legendary

nocturne mist
#

yea that works

#

untill i can get legendary anarchist or just legendary mechromancer i just like to use a speedy jill of all trades for extra reload speed

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

ok

#

that works

#

shock bone

tiny thorn
# nocturne mist shock bone

I have a +18% Shock Relic and a 530ish×9 (I think) non-elemental 2 mag Jakobs dropping into NVHM at 30.
Should I go see what Deputy's Badge NVHM has? I'm not speccing into the Blue Tree until UVHM.

nocturne mist
#

i think you only use deputys badge when your using fibber

#

im not too sure

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

ah i didnt know

#

doesnt deputys badge buff pistols?

tiny thorn
#

Or any shotgun really.
Along with Smaller, Lighter, Faster.

opal ingot
nocturne mist
#

maybe im thinking about sherrifs badge

tiny thorn
nocturne mist
#

oh my god

#

i missed out on so much

#

well i have bone now so it doesnt matter

tiny thorn
#

I'm gonna run Gaige legit.
I almost did with Zer0..
Got to UVHM legit.

#

Legit-ish

valid fox
#

after a whole week of sporadic farming, i got it

signal stump
#

hey does anyone know

#

the code name for the prefix for tech3 on shotguns?

wind token
#

depends on manufacturer no?

#

?parts

serene escarpBOT
wind token
#

dont know if it's in the second link, otherwise might check fandom, should be correct there

signal stump
#

no I meant the code name

wind token
#

ah prefixes, best off checking in blcmm

real oracle
#

unless you have sanity saver maybe

signal stump
#

my game didn't put it in

real oracle
#

loser

signal stump
#

it's crazy, I'm so used to it doing that

#

idk maybe gibbed has become so advanced

real oracle
#

its cuz you have NO fit

signal stump
#

that it can bypass sanity check

#

for prefixes

wind token
#

so i can copy it into blcmm

signal stump
#

you mean the accessory?

wind token
#

the prefix

signal stump
#

the prefix is wrong

wind token
#

what you have in your textbox already

#

bro if i tell you to just send me what is in the textbox

signal stump
#

there's nothing there, I deleted it because it's wrong

wind token
#

well i'm not gonna type it letter by letter then xd

signal stump
#

GD_Weap_Shotgun.Name.Prefix_Tediore.Prefix_ShotgunShell_GeneralBoost I'm telling you this search doesn't do anything

#

because it's not the prefix i am looking for

#

unless you'd find it in the same general location

#

ah thanks

valid fox
#

this may be weird but is the texture on pruple rarity bandit guns viewable anywhere? it has some cool art on it

nocturne mist
#

IM CRYING WHY COULDNT THIS DROP LATER

#

bandit grip sadly though

wheat harbor
wheat harbor
#

so if you disable sanity check it wont fixup the prefix

wide fog
trim hinge
#

bandit grip is just very good in like everything

nocturne mist
#

it was so close to being perfect

wheat harbor
#

like on pistols its larger than the damn matching grip bonus

nocturne mist
#

because thats what bandit grip does 😭

real oracle
#

i coulda sworn you used to be a bandit grip hater

wheat harbor
real oracle
#

i think it was on the bitch

wheat harbor
real oracle
#

that or it was nex or something

nocturne mist
#

ohh

wheat harbor
#

i cant stand slow reloads

real oracle
#

honestly you and nex are like the same except that she never became mod

wheat harbor
#

lol

#

but yeah
slow reloads are just annoying

real oracle
#

i accidently made the badaboom 3.5 second reload

#

might nerf

wheat harbor
#

idk why they nerfed launchers so much in 2

#

in bl1 they were fine

real oracle
#

except damage

#

but everything else about launchers in bl1 was great

#

and bl3 went back to giving them a fuckload of ammo

wheat harbor
real oracle
#

i just did mtd with a globetrottr on amara, no ammo regen and it was more than enough zaneLUL

#

fuckin love being able to spam launchers

wheat harbor
#

i just hate how bl2 made them entirely "just in case" weapons

real oracle
#

39 ammo :olimar

#

it's so shit

wheat harbor
#

since like
you just cant get ammo back

nocturne mist
#

i really dislike the striker

#

it feels like it does no damage when it doesnt crit

wheat harbor
#

its meh

real oracle
#

cuz it doesnt

#

it's a good gun but outperformed by a purple

wheat harbor
#

the low pellet count shotguns are kinda suckerton

nocturne mist
#

what should i use instead of it exept for a hydra

#

or twister bc i am not farming ooo

wheat harbor
#

triquetra is always an option

#

can always farm the ffs jakobs dig thingy for a coach gun

nocturne mist
#

ah ok

#

quad or coach gun

wheat harbor
#

coach gun

nocturne mist
#

alrighty ill get to farming it

#

i just need coach gun and blackhole and maybe a hornet or hive and then im ready to start the op climb

nocturne mist
signal stump
wheat harbor
nocturne mist
#

ah okay

#

didnt know the doc said quad so i didnt know which

trim hinge
#

i much prefer coach tbh

#

over quad

nocturne mist
#

quad takes too much amo

#

ammo

wheat harbor
#

yeah

#

quad is super expensive

#

and kinda innacurate

#

coach nearly has the same damage per projectile as a quad too

nocturne mist
#

the way i play gaige which i probably cant do this anymore but i get super close

#

idk if i can get away with that anymore

#

bc going into op levels

wheat harbor
#

gaige is an amazing tank

#

but yeah

nocturne mist
#

but through nvhm through uvhm it was super fun

real oracle
#

coach gun has matching barrel lmao zaneLUL

#

been seeing em get more and more popular

wheat harbor
#

yeh

#

idk why they also get an extra 2 projectiles on jakobs

real oracle
#

bl2

wheat harbor
#

tru

nocturne mist
#

whys wonderlust on gaige good

wheat harbor
#

its not

#

its worse than a dart

wind token
wheat harbor
#

@real oracle why the fuck do so many weapons have stability accessories and no reload speed accessory

#

well
ARs and pistols so far

wind token
nocturne mist
#

whats odds for tubby in ffs

#

HOLY SHIT BEKAH DROP

#

its bladed nooo

real oracle
#

at least it isnt cowboy

nocturne mist
#

what

trim hinge
#

if its not a cowboy bekah its good yeah

nocturne mist
#

razor

wind token
#

whats cowboy? fire rate?

trim hinge
#

bullet speed

wind token
#

ah sounds bad too mozeRotating

#

there are certain boss scenarios maybe where it might be useful, similar to vel0city lyuda

real oracle
#

the bekah isnt that great for bossing cuz no element, so cowboy completely neuters its mobbing potential

wind token
real oracle
#

actually it's really lenient

wind token
#

and then bullet speed will just make it ridiculous

real oracle
#

the split happens p soon and the angle is shallow so it works at close to medium-long range

real oracle
#

still loses but it's up there

#

i want to say it can outdps a sandhawk when you factor in matching times bone but, theres just no way

wheat harbor
real oracle
#

yeah mew does too

wheat harbor
#

feels like a massive gap between the initial bullet and split bullet

real oracle
#

if it was more like the bl3 bekah

nocturne mist
#

whys carnage good

wheat harbor
#

yeah the bl3 bekah feels great to me

nocturne mist
#

it doesnt seem good

real oracle
#

i wonder

wheat harbor
real oracle
#

krieg be weird like that

trim hinge
#

ive used carnage on gaige before its actually not bad

wheat harbor
#

its the only pure splash torgue shotgun i think

real oracle
#

ig its better on characters who dont care that much about critting

wheat harbor
#

so easy bloodbath procs

nocturne mist
real oracle
#

axton

wheat harbor

it's fine on axton

wheat harbor

axton gets more out of regular torgues tho

real oracle

nocturne mist
#

welp im off to the op levels now

#

got my legendary archanist bekah

#

oops nvm i gotta go farm blackhole rq

swift forge
#

nah

#

I don't like black hole on OP levels lol

#

you can try it though ig

tiny thorn
#

@swift forge

#

This way I can swap between Legendary Anarchist, Cyro & Mech COMs.

swift forge
#

why are you maxing out made of sterner stuff

tiny thorn
#

Just for the DT, a little more survivability. And I needed 3 in it to progress to the next Tier anyway..
So I just threw my last 2 in it.

#

I could throw those 2 in the Slag skill I guess..

#

I only need 1 for Nth Degree since it triggers off of pellets.

nocturne mist
swift forge
#

I use a purple turtle at level 80 and start using antag at op3

#

but black hole should be fine? I guess?

nocturne mist
#

what does antagonist do and what dlc is it

#

id still want a black whole just for dt though

#

its pretty nice on him

tiny thorn
real oracle
#

always shoots slag balls

swift forge
#

it's a high capacity shield that reduces bullet damage and has some funny bullet reflection stuff

nocturne mist
#

how do i get crystals on gaige

swift forge
#

also shoots slag balls

#

beehawk pete

fuck im not playing through all of toruge rn

#

thats one of two dlcs i didnt do

wheat harbor
nocturne mist
#

can i do haderax instead

tiny thorn
#

Soly, is that Gaige build decent, especially being able to swap between 3 Legendary COMs?
Or is it dumb?

swift forge
#

please find five points to put in the better half

#

I don't care if your main weapon is the twister

tiny thorn
swift forge
#

you have three other guns to use it with

#

two other guns and a slag gun I guess

tiny thorn
#

Just a Jakobs shotgun & Slag Grenades

#

I was going to use SMG on Gaige but Bean told me not to.
I know Assault Rifles suck

swift forge
#

smg is fine

#

ars are also fine lol

nocturne mist
#

some ars are really fucking good

wheat harbor
#

ARs are the most barrel dependant weapon type

real oracle
#

idk what ar's you'd use on gaige besides the hail and kitten

tiny thorn
#

I thought SMG basically always beat AR

nocturne mist
#

is there an smg hail

real oracle
swift forge
#

an average smg beats an average ar

wheat harbor
tiny thorn
#

But unique ARs beat unique SMGs?

wheat harbor
#

so ARs can beat out smgs depending on the barrel

nocturne mist
swift forge
#

unique ARs are crazy buggers

real oracle
#

well ars have a lot of unique stinkers but

wheat harbor
#

not just uniques tho

swift forge
#

bekah, hail, kitten, ogre

real oracle
#

theres also some really fucking strong ones

wheat harbor
#

i say barrel as unique weapons all have a special barrel

real oracle
#

oh yeah and then theres the vladof barrel

tiny thorn
#

Twister or 4 Barrel, Slagga & what else on Gaige?

wheat harbor
#

minigun and torgue barrel ARs can go hard

its funny how the sawbar is regarded as a good weapon despite how utterly AWFUL bandit ARs are

nocturne mist

maggie hornet

like
the sawbar could actually be one of the best weapons in the game if bandit ARs were better

nocturne mist
#

i like the sawbar but i dont like how i have to space for it

real oracle

yeah

#

and it's still very good tbf

wheat harbor

its fun with mods like bl2eternal for air dashing

wind token
real oracle
#

carnage on krieg?

#

explosive and procs BB for free

wheat harbor
#

i always find the difficulty of krieg seemingly overhyped
is it just because i know how teh splash shenanigans work that then its easy to figure out?

nocturne mist
#

op1 aquired

real oracle
#

no character is really that difficult

wind token
#

like, what is braindead?

real oracle
#

you just shoot in the general direction of enemies

#

and you win !!

wind token
real oracle
#

just managing bloodlust

wind token
#

zeta said splash shenanigans, dont know what that has to do with bloodlust

real oracle
#

i think zer0 and krieg are def the hardest characters to play but it isnt that difficult

real oracle
#

n shit ig

wind token
#

why krieg is usually called difficult is probably that you need some background knowledge

#

so splash "shenanigans" are probably part of that

real oracle
#

yeah

wind token
#

melee is braindead simple to build

#

but probably a big part may be "haha krieg = melee character" and that bossing is more difficult

#

or requires some tricks at least

real oracle
#

yeah with tricks he's the fastest raid bosser bar none

wind token
#

not raid

real oracle
#

but they're so fucking absurd to pull off

wind token
#

just regular bossing

#

i wouldnt say raids play a big part in bl2 (like, time wise, most of the time you will probably do something different than raids)

real oracle
#

it really isnt yeah

wind token
#

plus the gear you get there is not the part of "i NEED to get this"

#

is the interfacer nice? surely, am i a great character without still? definitely

#

same goes with stuff like blockade, norfleet, etc

#

but the stuff i'm doing to make boss kills fast (like flakker swap, bloodsplosion shenanigans, etc) is probably not something that somebody who doesnt know jackshit will do

#

so i can get if bossing is considered relatively difficult

tiny thorn
#

Yeah, idk wtf y'all are talking about.

wind token
#

what is confusing you?

real oracle
#

i remember watching temmmmy do the dragons on krieg

wind token
#

dragons is one of the raids i'm missing on krieg

real oracle
#

fucking 40 minute long fight and he died to incinerator at the end zaneLUL

wheat harbor
wind token
#

i did most raids (with hp fix on though) but dragons and some else i miss

tiny thorn
# wind token what is confusing you?

I mean I know WHAT you're talking about..
I don't know the shenanigans or details of all the guns just listed. I just don't have that knowledge or XP.

real oracle
#

the dragons become infinitely easier with even a little bit of air control

wind token
real oracle
#

like..actually fun raid boss???

#

except their buggy ai but

wind token
#

i didnt do gee

#

which else

real oracle
#

dexi, vermi?

wheat harbor
#

but krieg is overall fairly simple
get big launcher for initial kills
rock more reliable bonus splash gun for when BB is up

wind token
#

vermi i didnt

#

dexi i did

wheat harbor
wind token
#

son of craw is also missing

wheat harbor
#

i hate that 2 raids have fucking lock on shock beams

wind token
#

yeah dragons, gee and vermi

wind token
wheat harbor
real oracle
wheat harbor
wheat harbor
real oracle
#

and then use an infection or whatever instead

wheat harbor
#

and then dont have BL stacks

wind token
#

you may know these things where if you thought about it for a second you'd be like "oh yeah for sure" but if you dont explicitly think about it then you dont recognize it

#

things that you just need to have "heard about once" or at least "thought about once"

wheat harbor
#

yes you have to think about it and look at what options you have

wind token
#

yeah and i think you need to think about stuff much more to see what works well together than on stuff like maya and axton

wheat harbor
#

im just saying like
if you think about it vladof grenades are a great solution

wind token
#

yeah

wheat harbor
#

you dont need to be told it because theres no complex interactions

#

they just deal lots of ticks of damage over time

wind token
#

the splash stuff is probably more complex yeah

wheat harbor
#

yeh

real oracle
#

tbh

wheat harbor
#

because that literally requires code/testing knowledge

real oracle
#

i think the leech and even moxxi grenade outclass vladof grenades except the pandemic

wheat harbor
#

yeah but vladofs are just easily accessible in a playthrough

#

youll see em around in drops or from vendors

wind token
#

isnt vladof just a singular grenade always?

wheat harbor
#

wdym?

wind token
#

not splitting into 9 grenades or something like pandemic and leech

wheat harbor
#

yeah

#

the non uniques are just one thing

wind token
#

well isnt it obvious that leech and pandemic outclass them?

wheat harbor
#

oh ofc

wind token
#

i was confused why funko pointed that out

#

also which were the moxxi grenades again?

wheat harbor
#

kiss of death

#

just one

leaden stag
#

gotta confess I never used moxi nades

wind token
#

uhh 3 second fuse time apparently?

wheat harbor
#

in wedding dlc

#

its so missable

wind token
#

i mean it's obviously x6 but im not sure if it outclasses

leaden stag
#

I was thinking about the tps one as well

real oracle
wheat harbor
real oracle
#

not as good as the leech but you can throw it out before going bxr or whatever

wind token
#

...3 seconds

wheat harbor
#

but leach only heals from its dot ticks

real oracle
#

tho it would be better if it was like a 5 second fuse

#

patch makes it 10

is this modded?

wheat harbor

probably a normal crossfire just low level

opal cloak

huh

maybe someone joined my playthrough and dropped it or something

wind token

like, i have a crossfire but just for the collection :(

wheat harbor

im sorry but that is so funny

wind token
#

oh you meant me, didnt know who nipple was OMEGALUL

#

what did you want help with now?

tiny thorn
wind token
#

ah gaige, no clue of that mozeRotating

tiny thorn
wind token
#

you can just call me by my actual name, marino

swift forge
#

?

tiny thorn
#

Soly!!!

swift forge
#

if you're never between 250 and 300 stacks then yes

#

300 is a horrible number of stacks to have

tiny thorn
#

Why is 300 bad?

swift forge
#

you're too inaccurate to hit things, and relying on close enough doesn't do enough damage at 300

tiny thorn
#

Thank you Soly

swift forge
#

you either go full bore 400 and use only close enough, or you drop to 150-250 and actually hit what you shoot at

#

being at the 250-300 range means you're relying on discord to hit things at mid range

#

or shooting at the broad side of a barn

tiny thorn
#

K, this is what I got

swift forge
#

if you really want to have the 3rd preshrunk point, you can shift one from typecast iconoclast

swift forge
#

yeah, I mean if you really want to be able to go beyond 250

tiny thorn
wind token
#

i dont know anything about gaige but often there's a specialization option and a generalist option

#

plus you dont need to stay on the same build forever

tiny thorn
wind token
#

since different builds excel at different stuff

swift forge
#

my experience is that if you're going from 250-300 there is actually a damage decrease from missing shots

#

unless you're using the fibber

#

prestacked fibber is probably numerically the "strongest" way to play Gaige as you can get kills on basically anything from across the map without aiming

#

but prestacking cuts into gameplay time and both prestacking and fibber spam are just not all that fun

wind token
#

fibber doesnt sound that bad but prestacking yeah

leaden stag
#

takes like 10-15 minutes if you have the right gear its a pretty lame excuse

wind token
#

although always using the same gun probably gets boring over tiem

leaden stag
#

there are a bunch of weapons like twister, hail, hot mama that work on funny ammounts of stacks as well

#

you cant shoot randomly as much as with fibber but you can hit stuff

wheat harbor
#

prestacking is a waste of time

swift forge
#

^ don't prestack (in the general case)

#

I prestack for peak runs =(

leaden stag
#

you do you but I still find it a crybaby excuse instead of just adapting to something simple

wheat harbor
#

fibber definitely kinda accels with high anarchy since close enough penalty only applies to 1 out of 9 bullets

wheat harbor
wind token
swift forge
leaden stag
#

again it takes very little time with proper setup

wheat harbor
#

you can just get stacks in combat

wind token
#

i get what you mean but there'll always be implications that dont sound nice

swift forge
leaden stag
#

but keep complaining for mo reason I gusss

wheat harbor
#

there no reason to do it

wheat harbor
leaden stag
#

yeah ok dont play gaige then if you have 0 reasoning skills

wheat harbor
leaden stag
#

Ive already laid out all the arguments

wheat harbor
#

prestacking is boring and a waste of time

swift forge
wheat harbor
#

people want to play the game

#

not shoot a box

swift forge
wheat harbor
#

people will prestack 400 stacks just to do anyhtijg in the game and its frustrating to see

leaden stag
#

if you think thats the only way to do it or even the fastest then yeah you are not time efficient at all

wheat harbor
#

you can literally just earn stacks while mobbing

#

kills give stacks too, not just reloads

swift forge
#

well I mean how are you prestacking faster than 1.6-1.8 reload jakobs, a Good tina com, and a deputy relic?

leaden stag
#

Pyro pete's bar has the most spawns if you dont activate the quest and just kill enemies fast

swift forge
#

I would love to shave ten seconds from my 2 minute prestacking for peak

leaden stag
#

then after the spawns are over just activate the quest

wheat harbor
swift forge
wheat harbor
#

rather than waste time running over to the bar

leaden stag
#

Ive never used the box method

#

I'll say it in the most respectful way you are giving the most crybaby excuses to complain about a character

wheat harbor
swift forge
#

also tbh I don't see how pointing norfleet/topneaa at your feet is all that much more interesting than pointing a shotgun at a box (or at marcus' target dummy). At least with the dummy I can read bad fanfiction chat in discord while stacking

wheat harbor
#

its saying prestacking is boring

#

because you dont need to do it

leaden stag
#

its a lot faster and you still get to play the game to an extent

swift forge
#

I'm 100% complaining about people who think prestacking to 400 is necessary

wheat harbor
#

yes

swift forge
wheat harbor
#

same as saying pimperhab is lame and boring doesnt mean youre saying sal entirely is lame and boring

swift forge
#

I just see people saying "gaige sucks have to stack to 400 before playing the game" a lot and it really annoys me

leaden stag
#

Part of my fun with gaige is that she is my tryhard character

wheat harbor
#

people think gauge sucks because you have to prestack 400 stacks every time

#

when its complete overkill

leaden stag
#

I grow stacks while playing normally and if I loose them I rage quit

#

if I dont feel like regaining them

#

at worst no stacks means I might use the bee for mobbing

swift forge
#

I just jump right back in when I lose my stacks, I don't care 😅

leaden stag
#

for a little while

wheat harbor
#

hail doesnt really interact with anarchy spread differently
its just splash isnt hurt by close enough

leaden stag
#

hot mama doesnt get affected too much even with 400-600 stacks

#

you just have to deal with the sway

wheat harbor
#

yeah

leaden stag
#

Only way I can play sniper gaige without wanting to shoot myself

swift forge
#

sway is shit to deal with though

leaden stag
#

besides big bosses

wheat harbor
#

just dont play sniper gaige

swift forge
wheat harbor
#

she aint the sniper chuaracter

leaden stag
#

400-600 stacks sniper gaige with hot mama is my jam

swift forge
#

alternatively, Legendary Catalyst Chain Lightning Sniper Gaige smugGaige

wheat harbor
#

hot doodoo

tiny thorn
leaden stag
#

its like critical ascension with sway

#

if you dont get murdered you can in theory do the box method against bosses

#

but I generally just run through maps

#

or if I really want the fast stacks for killing bosses or digistruct peak I bully pete bar

#

I dont wanna shoot a box unless its with a macro

swift forge
#

how the hell did we manage to get three sane gaige players in the same room

tiny thorn
swift forge
swift forge
wheat harbor
#

id suggest upshot over buckup

swift forge
#

All good gaige builds will look about 90% the same no matter what

wheat harbor
#

cause buckup is wonky and sometimes dt lassrs you or buck ups an enemy

swift forge
#

you have that 90% so you're fine

wheat harbor
swift forge
#

thoughtlock maya looks different from scorn maya

wheat harbor
#

sal ironically having some of the biggest differences

swift forge
#

also sniper vs melee zero ig

wheat harbor
leaden stag
#

I havent used scorn in like 4 years

wheat harbor
swift forge
#

true

wheat harbor
#

but any gun using build is basically the same

swift forge
#

scorn feels so good, I respecced the moment I had 52 skill points to get both scorn and ruin at the same time. Dropped converge for it. Totally worth

leaden stag
#

also never really used the phaselock alter skill

wheat harbor
#

changing out a com isnt really a different build

#

sal builds vastly different depending on deputy or hoarder

swift forge
#

turns out skill distribution is "put points in good skills, don't put points in bad skills"

swift forge
#

since there are generally enough points to get all the good skills now, you just get all of them instead of needing to choose

wheat harbor
#

when most skills are just passive stat boosts that are good on every weapon
turns out it doesnt matter

#

sal mainly comes down to moneyshot or no moneyshot
because gun go brrr is so anti moneyshot

tiny thorn
#

@wheat harbor
Ok, so now I can stack 300 but I took one out of Robot Rampage.

leaden stag
#

Sal players stop thinking the moment they get a moxxi weapon

wheat harbor
#

gun krieg is kinda just gun krieg

swift forge
wheat harbor
swift forge
#

slag moxxi weapon + dps gun is just kinda good

wheat harbor
#

double butchers go brrrrrr

tiny thorn
#

Is it fine to not pick up Robot Rampage?

wheat harbor
#

yeh

swift forge
#

on pc yes

wheat harbor
#

youre pc yea?

#

dt suckerton on pc

swift forge
#

please never avoid that point on console though lmao, dt is so cracked on console

#

my lyuda farm was just show up, summon dt, slag mobley and gettle

tiny thorn
#

Why on PC?

swift forge
#

sometimes I wouldn't even end the farm with a single anarchy stack

#

dt bugged on pc and does less damage

leaden stag
#

Id deduct points somewhere and make every 5th bullet fired at an enemy bounce off

tiny thorn
#

He can be built melee too tho.
You just never do that on PC?
