im looking at her skill tree rn for when i play bl1
and she has so many melee buffs
also, could be lowkey nice on krieg
i need to lowkey check in depth how perfect parts change for krieg
bandit grip sadly
like, it's crazy that matching grip is just garbage
because krieg already has it in his kit
idek
@wind token & @real oracle
What about this??
i just know what they look lke and what different parts do sort of
grab buzzaxe bomberdier
can you just send the bl2skills link
you ralso really want thrill of the kill
also why strip the flesh on a melee build that doesnt have the explosive skill?
to make things short: this is mine
why redeem the soul?
ffyl time?
Which 1 point should I drop in Bloodlust & which 5 should I drop in Mania?
it's only 1 point for +50% ffyl
Using grenades a lot along with Blood Bath.
oh you right
no you dont
its nice
again: it's a melee build
you get full hp per kill
buzzaxe bonberdier chat
yeah definitely grab that
your rotation in melee krieg is get melee kill -> spam axes
then once your fuel the blood expires repeat
again: melee build
buzzaxe bomberdier will buff axe throws plus it procs blood bath and synergizes with strip te flesh plus and other explosive damage buffs + melee buffs
you will not be able to use grenades other than the time where you wait to be low hp
bbath is irrelevant for melee
i mean maybe magic misille? but thats just for slag before popping it
i was thinking to keep slag grenades or smth up
but
well actually, you meant the grenade drop
hear me out
yeah that is true
yes grenade drop
i was thinking the damage buff
so he can slag stuff if he wants to? idk
but yeah the grenade is true
i would use a nade that keeps up bloodlust
whenever i play melee krieg i dont bother grabbing it
and slag with slagga while waiting for low hp
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
@wind token
What about 1 in Flame Flare instead of Redeem?
I'm wondering if explosives might be better than melee
What do you think of this?
#bl1-2-tps-media message
i prefer explosive over melee because i dont like how braindead melee is sometimes
Somebody told me playing Kreig is only pushing 2 buttons the whole time
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"
i mean, you can decide to not take redeem the soul, i just dont know why
Not Zer0 in UVHM..
Slag, Deception, Kunai (same button at Deception tho..), swap weapon & unload..
So that's 3 buttons & a mouse wheel.
what im saying is its mostly wrong
hold on, i noticed something bad, let me respec
its just overly simplifying things
Fuck, wait, that's still only 2 buttons..
you can make this arguement about games not being hard as well
wait
I was wondering why you didn't take Boiling Blood
its not needed when you have a pandemic constantly stacking for you
there's no reason
i just had a brainer when i saved this skill tree
yeah i guess you can opt in for it
so either reload speed or longer stack duration
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
Do I not want to take Flame Flare to 5?
100% duration.. I can't Stop, Drop & Roll in this game.
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
it ultimately doesnt matter
like, where do you want to take a point away?
plus, 1 point doesnt make a whole lot of difference
It's between 5 in FF,
Or 1 in Redeem & 4 in FF.
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
do you think this skill is oversaturated 
definitely the second
i mean 80% duration is good enough
too much visual clutter make it go to bl3
plus as already said the pandemics will reapply being on fire often enough
I'm scared of 100% duration, honestly.
I ate it
good enough
where
not flakker
Carnage
carnage got them mixed up because casual prefix on torgue shotgun
makes me think flakker
I got the patriots on my side (this feels like an L)
Depends on what ele your weapons are
well what weapons are you using
^
grog heartbreaker a shock or corrosive topnea depending on enemys and a hydra
ah yeah
is jakobs or torgue grip more damage though?
Fire on fire weap
im not actually sure
i think torgue grip would be better because matching but i think jacobs is def still good
On what
carnage
did i just...
am i supposed to swap whenever i swap weopons
I think jakobs has the most raw dps
But for matching grip and dps you would go tourge on carnage
it may not be perfect but hell yeah
im on krieg buddy
erm guys
so matching grip is whatever
Yrah basicly
That hive sucks
Rapple, you wanna see my builds I just finished for each character?
get back to that 0 gear bud...
i just wanted to see how good my flakker swapping is
it was literally first try
And blue
No prefix, rocket speed sight and exhaust, bad hive other thrn the grip
i used to think hive was almost guarenteed because id get it everytime i killed saturn
just because it has no accessory i dont think it sucks
it's still a hive at the end of the day
exaust
Rocket speed makws it worse
does rocket speed make it "trigger" the hive gimmick earlier?
ah
No it fires out faster meaning the inital orb is farther away from the target
the one i already had was this one
is that bandit grip idk launcher grips
If it has a blade on a rocket its bandit
ah okay
the only weopon parts i have memorized is pistols and shotguns
just because i like th em
Who tf puts blades on a rocket launcher?
plus i love tedior grips on shoguns
bandits
Bandit
I knew that answer was coming
Sight
Bird is the word
im still pissed this dropped
i get shams whenever i dont want them
i needed this in uvhm not tvhm
Thats a sucky sham anyway
Bitch is better smh
Still a good gun
i have this one
I got this one
its all over my pants
what mod is that that tells you the parts
it seems convenient
python part notifier i think
Could use your eyes
i know the parts that are important for me without needing to look but its convenient yeah
can also not be a bitch with flexing having learned parts
i only want it for shield parts
I dont flex
I brag
i only know shotgun and pistols ðŸ˜
We call that Tuesday
Dont you want a low lv one for stacks
yeah would be better of course
although you have so much survivability with melee so it might not matter probably
truly a funkland moment
im too fast
@opal ingot get out of my game 
yeah
could prob use an extra point in speed per speed
doesnt pklay zane
ports him into bl2
smh
shut UP, driver amara counts too
the fucking game crashed

YOOO crash test dummy did its thing
so easy
he just BARELY has enough hp to survive 
i can fix that
wooo
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
2
@nocturne mist can you please leave out your shitty items out of my lobbies?
What is this item mod?
got the thing 
what mod do you mean?
The card of the item has the skills with colors and shows grades
Same for that gun. The card shows weapon parts
python part notifier is for the parts
the colors are uhh
let me check
its some txt mod iirc
for the parts here https://bl-sdk.github.io/mods/PythonPartNotifier/
Shows the parts making up all of your items and weapons on their cards.
😾
woa, actual garbage
tunguska so fun when you don’t have people yelling in your ear it’s garbage
(this applies to a lot of gear)
this fucking thing is multiplicative to her skill 
v nice
it's also multiplicative with
hey for javelin krieg it might not be too bad okay 
also i like the the bunny more for that
Melee only Krieg.
Probably with a Rapier, Grog & Roid Shield.
Can the Rapier come in Slag?
Maybe a fire one..
Fire or Slag grenade.
you dont need a slag rapier if thats what you're wondering
but people insist that you do
I forgot to tag @rough galleon
What about a slag leech grenade?
leech cant be slag
I feel like I got a MM that was both..
krieg doesnt need a roid shield just use a roughrider
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
im confused i cant tell if your agreeing with me or not
i am
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
5/5 preshrunk is a waste of points
early-tier points in BFF tree are better than mid-tier points in OC
ah ok ill go respec
of course you can try building around it, but imo it's performing worst that some non unique launcher 💀
javelin with a torgue launcher?
@swift forge is electrical storm ass or nah
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
i really only need 200 stacks whenever i go over 200 i just pop discord and stop it when i hit 200 again
I usually do 4/5 pep + 1/5 gorilla
there are a ton of otherwise high quality coms that randomly boost gorilla
i dont use dt for damage i just use him for a distraction
i couldnt pick between more pep or electrical storm
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
im farming for a blackhole rn then im doing bunker and my final story push
but if you don't care about randomly getting gorilla to 5/5 for one then whatever
then im farming xp and then op levels
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
since you can't guarantee having good shock/elemental guns
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
white shield lol
its a turtle shield placeholder for now
its just a white turtle shield from the vendor ðŸ˜
you use grog to slag?
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
I used magic missile throughout uvhm, but grenade healing too good in OP levels
currently I'm on chain lightning
i might do the same but for my little offmeta build im running rn storm front works better
seems fine
i need to finish tinas soon ill do it when i set up my moonshot farm
I think I might swap to slagfusions at op10
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
That black hole sucks
it doenst matter
It makes the novas damage better
the radius matters more smh
i dont think it matters for now
shouldnt
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
I just started her,
This is the game plan:
https://bl2skills.com/mechromancer.html#510150151151550001150500415050151050
you only need 1 point in nth degree not all 5
Oh really?
yur
But every 5 vs. every 9 is nice.
Is there a COM for this skill?
you dont need it tbh
shotguns/fibber makes it not matter
also buckup isnt needed
bloodsoaked sheids does what it does but better
I was thinking of running SMG bc I heard Assault Rifle was the worst gun category in the game.
I had the extra point & needed to spend it in that tree to progress.
It's either that or 1 more in Cooking or Sterner.
Just shotguns on her?
Large or small mag?
also intespeed outburst isnt the best slaging skill in the game but its still good
depends on preference
Small gets anarchy faster
Maybe Slow Hand?
i like to use 1-2 shot jacobs shotguns on her
She's not so squishy
hydra twister orphan maker cc heart breaker striker
Does Nth degree even trigger?
Oh wow
thats why you only need one point
So just 1 pellet flys to another enemy?
So where should I put my remaining 4 points?
https://bl2skills.com/mechromancer.html#510150151151550001150500415050151010
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
I heard explosive clap can stagger enemies.
But wouldn't I just have a slag weapon?
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
IO is still shit :)
then why does every build on the gaige doc use it
wasnt it tediore?
tunguska is torgue
is this sham ass
i mean ittle work
also you can use other shoguns/certain pistols
like i love using ravagers on her
@nocturne mist
Ok, this is what I have for Gaige,
So I can switch between Catalyst & Mech.
https://bl2skills.com/mechromancer.html#550000151551550011150510415050151010
Or, is Anarchist pretty good?
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
Well, this way I can swap between all 3.
Use Anarchist at the beginning of a fight to quickly stack Anarchy, swap to Cat to do the shock DOT and swap to Mech & let DT loose whenever.
Maybe with a +Shock Relic.
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.
It's good with any 1 or 2 mag Jakobs
Or any shotgun really.
Along with Smaller, Lighter, Faster.
it boosts shotguns
maybe im thinking about sherrifs badge
That's Sheriff's
after a whole week of sporadic farming, i got it

dont know if it's in the second link, otherwise might check fandom, should be correct there
ah prefixes, best off checking in blcmm
dont worry about that, the game automatically puts it
unless you have sanity saver maybe
my game didn't put it in
loser
its cuz you have NO fit
can you send me the prefix you already have
so i can copy it into blcmm
you mean the accessory?
the prefix
the prefix is wrong
what you have in your textbox already
bro if i tell you to just send me what is in the textbox
there's nothing there, I deleted it because it's wrong
well i'm not gonna type it letter by letter then xd

these are the ones i found
ah thanks
this may be weird but is the texture on pruple rarity bandit guns viewable anywhere? it has some cool art on it
wha tthe fuck happened to the UI
prefixes arent sanity checked
theyre overridden in the sanity check process
so if you disable sanity check it wont fixup the prefix
why bandit grip sadly? that’s literally the second best you could get
bandit grip is just very good in like everything
it was so close to being perfect
mag size basically always good
and then
for some reason bandit grip consistently has large mag size boosts
like on pistols its larger than the damn matching grip bonus
because thats what bandit grip does ðŸ˜
i coulda sworn you used to be a bandit grip hater
no i mean
the boost is bigger than most other stat boosts
i think it was on the bitch
i still am
that or it was nex or something
ohh
i cant stand slow reloads
honestly you and nex are like the same except that she never became mod
except damage
but everything else about launchers in bl1 was great
and bl3 went back to giving them a fuckload of ammo
true
i just did mtd with a globetrottr on amara, no ammo regen and it was more than enough 
fuckin love being able to spam launchers
i just hate how bl2 made them entirely "just in case" weapons
since like
you just cant get ammo back
its meh
the low pellet count shotguns are kinda suckerton
what should i use instead of it exept for a hydra
or twister bc i am not farming ooo
triquetra is always an option
can always farm the ffs jakobs dig thingy for a coach gun
coach gun
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
coach gun or longrider
but i didn’t even disable sanity check 
coach
coach is one of the best non uniques in the game
yeah
quad is super expensive
and kinda innacurate
coach nearly has the same damage per projectile as a quad too
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
but through nvhm through uvhm it was super fun
bl2
tru
whys wonderlust on gaige good
jakobs grip drop when
@real oracle why the fuck do so many weapons have stability accessories and no reload speed accessory
well
ARs and pistols so far
sucks to reload though, gladly im krieg 
at least it isnt cowboy
what
if its not a cowboy bekah its good yeah
razor
whats cowboy? fire rate?
bullet speed
ah sounds bad too 
there are certain boss scenarios maybe where it might be useful, similar to vel0city lyuda
the bekah isnt that great for bossing cuz no element, so cowboy completely neuters its mobbing potential
ah true, jakobs 
i suppose you already have to be careful with spacing
actually it's really lenient
and then bullet speed will just make it ridiculous
the split happens p soon and the angle is shallow so it works at close to medium-long range
bee 
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
i just find it annoying how slow the split is to start
yeah mew does too
feels like a massive gap between the initial bullet and split bullet
if it was more like the bl3 bekah
whys carnage good
yeah the bl3 bekah feels great to me
it doesnt seem good
i wonder
splash
damage
ive used carnage on gaige before its actually not bad
its the only pure splash torgue shotgun i think
ig its better on characters who dont care that much about critting
so easy bloodbath procs
havent used it on an enemy yet
axton
eh
it's fine on axton
axton gets more out of regular torgues tho
welp im off to the op levels now
got my legendary archanist bekah
oops nvm i gotta go farm blackhole rq
why are you maxing out made of sterner stuff
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.
what shield then
I use a purple turtle at level 80 and start using antag at op3
but black hole should be fine? I guess?
what does antagonist do and what dlc is it
id still want a black whole just for dt though
its pretty nice on him
Mine shoots slag
always shoots slag balls
it's a high capacity shield that reduces bullet damage and has some funny bullet reflection stuff
how do i get crystals on gaige
big capacity
reflects bullets
homing slag orbs
it only reduces damage for reflected bullets
can i do haderax instead
Soly, is that Gaige build decent, especially being able to swap between 3 Legendary COMs?
Or is it dumb?
please find five points to put in the better half
I don't care if your main weapon is the twister
I don't need it with Jakobs shotguns tho!
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
some ars are really fucking good
ARs are the most barrel dependant weapon type
idk what ar's you'd use on gaige besides the hail and kitten
I thought SMG basically always beat AR
is there an smg hail
if you factor in uniques, smgs are probably the worst fucking guns in the game
an average smg beats an average ar
basically
smgs have better base stats than ARs
but smg parts are really mediocre, including uniques
But unique ARs beat unique SMGs?
so ARs can beat out smgs depending on the barrel
idk what smgs youd use on gaige other than sandhawk or slagga
unique ARs are crazy buggers
well ars have a lot of unique stinkers but
not just uniques tho
bekah, hail, kitten, ogre
theres also some really fucking strong ones
i say barrel as unique weapons all have a special barrel
oh yeah and then theres the vladof barrel
Twister or 4 Barrel, Slagga & what else on Gaige?
fair
minigun and torgue barrel ARs can go hard
fibber
no unique body and all
TORGUE??
Thanks bean
sawbar and bekah have special bodies for some reason but it doesnt do anything
i mean
it can be alright
grenadier is nice
iirc it literally only has the rarity and that's it
its literally just a clone of the purple body with 6 in its name
hive
havent looked in a bit but yeah it's kinda just..there
its funny how the sawbar is regarded as a good weapon despite how utterly AWFUL bandit ARs are
maggie hornet
like
the sawbar could actually be one of the best weapons in the game if bandit ARs were better
i like the sawbar but i dont like how i have to space for it
thats literally the only thing holding it down
yeah
and it's still very good tbf
yeah
its a bit awkward imo
bl2 movement isnt great so getting the spacing is kinda clunky
exactly
its fun with mods like bl2eternal for air dashing
wdym
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?
op1 aquired
no character is really that difficult
i know carnage on krieg, i just didnt understand what you meant by that sentence
like, what is braindead?
what shenanigans? that blood bath is procced by grenade/rocket splash and how different weapons have grenade or rocket splash added to them (or even pure)?
just managing bloodlust
zeta said splash shenanigans, dont know what that has to do with bloodlust
i think zer0 and krieg are def the hardest characters to play but it isnt that difficult
knowing what guns can proc BB
n shit ig
why krieg is usually called difficult is probably that you need some background knowledge
so splash "shenanigans" are probably part of that
yeah
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
yeah with tricks he's the fastest raid bosser bar none
not raid
but they're so fucking absurd to pull off
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)
it really isnt yeah
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
Yeah, idk wtf y'all are talking about.
what is confusing you?
i remember watching temmmmy do the dragons on krieg
dragons is one of the raids i'm missing on krieg
fucking 40 minute long fight and he died to incinerator at the end 
mainly knowing what type of splash everythign is
understanding impact and bonus splash stuff
i did most raids (with hp fix on though) but dragons and some else i miss
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.
the dragons become infinitely easier with even a little bit of air control
i think that this plays a part in that yeah
dexi, vermi?
but krieg is overall fairly simple
get big launcher for initial kills
rock more reliable bonus splash gun for when BB is up
except when shock lock on beam
son of craw is also missing
i hate that 2 raids have fucking lock on shock beams
yeah dragons, gee and vermi
which brings us back to "need knowledge"
that too ig
the whole vladof grenade is just logical
but people dont get that ig?
and when it sometimes becomes permanent so you literally CANT win
well cuz fastball maybe
yeah
true
people just rock fastball for everything
and then use an infection or whatever instead
and then dont have BL stacks
i dont know if it is logical in the sense that you would immediately think of it if you dont have it in mind already
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"
basically
bloodlust stacks when dealing damage
doesnt matter what deals damage or how much
what can easily deal many ticks of damage over time
dots
what applies dots easily
vladof grenades
yes you have to think about it and look at what options you have
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
im just saying like
if you think about it vladof grenades are a great solution
yeah
you dont need to be told it because theres no complex interactions
they just deal lots of ticks of damage over time
the splash stuff is probably more complex yeah
yeh
tbh
because that literally requires code/testing knowledge
i think the leech and even moxxi grenade outclass vladof grenades except the pandemic
yeah but vladofs are just easily accessible in a playthrough
youll see em around in drops or from vendors
isnt vladof just a singular grenade always?
wdym?
not splitting into 9 grenades or something like pandemic and leech
well isnt it obvious that leech and pandemic outclass them?
oh ofc
gotta confess I never used moxi nades
uhh 3 second fuse time apparently?
theres literally 1
in wedding dlc
its so missable
i mean it's obviously x6 but im not sure if it outclasses
I was thinking about the tps one as well
yeah, it does damage as it sticks to an enemy and heals you during it
isnt that thw same grenade
leech2
not as good as the leech but you can throw it out before going bxr or whatever
...3 seconds
but leach only heals from its dot ticks
slag transfusions>>
hmm yeah maybe
we're talking about grenades that apply bloodlust constantly
we already were this far 
iirc it's from the one moxxi mission, patch adds it to the wedding dlc
isnt kiss of death from that one mission in opertunity?
i thought it was from hell hath no fury or whatever its called
yeah thats the main source
and also hyperius for some reason?
but patch makes it drop in wedding dlc
honestly i had no idea
thats its main drop without running the patch
i just found out today bc i did that sidequest for the first time because i wanted blackhole ðŸ˜
only raid bosses im doing on gaige is the one really hard one i forgot his name hes in hammerlock dlc, dragons, craw(if you count him), haderax, and terramorphous
well kinda
i didnt do torgue dlc or scarlets dlc
i love this game

dt keeps like
staying alive past his duration
then i cant use him again till i save quit
ive had to restart peak 3 times because of this bug
And why is that bad
reese witherspoon
jaw
Wtf are you doing
switch has cheat codes iirc
that's the kill code or something like that
something the devs forgot to take out
Bruh really? 
He insta re spawns too lmao it's a really easy seraph farm
You can also get the bee boomerang bitch ect from him within 20 mins
yeah probably save edited in cause level
stats look fine so
probably a normal crossfire just low level
man i really need to get one of these
like, i have a crossfire but just for the collection :(
For Gaige, is this ok?
Idea is being able to swap between L. Anarchist, L. Cyro & L. Mech.
Should I take 1 out of Preshrunk & put it in Robot Rampage?
https://bl2skills.com/mechromancer.html#510150151151550011150550413050151010
ah gaige, no clue of that 
Do you preferred Nipple, keep it casual?
Or should I call you Mr. Salad?
you can just call me by my actual name, marino
?
if you're never between 250 and 300 stacks then yes
300 is a horrible number of stacks to have
Why is everybody mentioning staying at 200 or below
Why is 300 bad?
you're too inaccurate to hit things, and relying on close enough doesn't do enough damage at 300
Thank you Soly
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
K, this is what I got
if you really want to have the 3rd preshrunk point, you can shift one from typecast iconoclast
This will get me 250 max
yeah, I mean if you really want to be able to go beyond 250
But then I'd be using only shotguns basically and there wouldn't be any point in me putting anything in The Better Half..
Is that the route I should go?
That's more damage but this way I'm playing it safer & I'm able to be more versatile.
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
I'm a D&D optimizer in heart,
So I like to know what is commonly regardless as the most powerful option for a character or Class.
Then I like to see how to remain powerful, maybe add to it, and have some fun.
D&D has taught me to keep survivability in mind.
well i dont know how it is with gaige but with krieg there's no best
since different builds excel at different stuff
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
fibber doesnt sound that bad but prestacking yeah
takes like 10-15 minutes if you have the right gear its a pretty lame excuse
although always using the same gun probably gets boring over tiem
excuse? 
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
prestacking is a waste of time
you do you but I still find it a crybaby excuse instead of just adapting to something simple
fibber definitely kinda accels with high anarchy since close enough penalty only applies to 1 out of 9 bullets
its boring and a waste of time
i dont like the message youre transporting with this
so are peak runs 🥲
again it takes very little time with proper setup
you can just get stacks in combat
i get what you mean but there'll always be implications that dont sound nice
I just can't get used to the hyperion reverse recoil screen shake with gaige
but keep complaining for mo reason I gusss
again
its boring and a waste of time
there no reason to do it
yeah its super annoying
.
yeah ok dont play gaige then if you have 0 reasoning skills
i main gaige
Ive already laid out all the arguments
prestacking is boring and a waste of time
I like starting peak with +200% damage from 150 stacks, but I would probably never prestack for anything other than peak and raids
pretty much
I have most (not all) of the setup, it's still boring =/
people will prestack 400 stacks just to do anyhtijg in the game and its frustrating to see
if you think thats the only way to do it or even the fastest then yeah you are not time efficient at all
whats faster?
you can literally just earn stacks while mobbing
kills give stacks too, not just reloads
well I mean how are you prestacking faster than 1.6-1.8 reload jakobs, a Good tina com, and a deputy relic?
Pyro pete's bar has the most spawns if you dont activate the quest and just kill enemies fast
I would love to shave ten seconds from my 2 minute prestacking for peak
then after the spawns are over just activate the quest
so youre just
killing enemies?
you know you can do that in the actual activity
ah yes, I, too, enjoy running past all the enemies in the beatdown to get to pete's bar.
rather than waste time running over to the bar
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
also yeah
going over 200 you kinda start losing damage with a lot of guns
just depends on if weapons mitigate the close enough penalty
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
no one is complaining about gaige?
its saying prestacking is boring
because you dont need to do it
its a lot faster and you still get to play the game to an extent
I'm 100% complaining about people who think prestacking to 400 is necessary
yes
which, to be clear, I don't think is you
same as saying pimperhab is lame and boring doesnt mean youre saying sal entirely is lame and boring
I just see people saying "gaige sucks have to stack to 400 before playing the game" a lot and it really annoys me
yeah
its frustrating
Part of my fun with gaige is that she is my tryhard character
people think gauge sucks because you have to prestack 400 stacks every time
when its complete overkill
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
also
hot mama sucks ass
I just jump right back in when I lose my stacks, I don't care 😅
for a little while
hail doesnt really interact with anarchy spread differently
its just splash isnt hurt by close enough
hot mama doesnt get affected too much even with 400-600 stacks
you just have to deal with the sway
yeah
Only way I can play sniper gaige without wanting to shoot myself
sway is shit to deal with though
besides big bosses
just dont play sniper gaige
150 stacks discord sniper gaige
she aint the sniper chuaracter
400-600 stacks sniper gaige with hot mama is my jam
alternatively, Legendary Catalyst Chain Lightning Sniper Gaige 
hot doodoo
I've been getting 100+ stacks just from playing for 10 minutes.
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
how the hell did we manage to get three sane gaige players in the same room
What do you think of this then?
#bl1-2-tps-media message
sometimes I set up my controller juuuust so, then go to the bathroom while it stacks
I just realised you have buck up instead of upshot robot. Please change that.
should grab upshot robot but yeh
id suggest upshot over buckup
All good gaige builds will look about 90% the same no matter what
cause buckup is wonky and sometimes dt lassrs you or buck ups an enemy
you have that 90% so you're fine
all builds look pretty samey 
thoughtlock maya looks different from scorn maya
sal ironically having some of the biggest differences
also sniper vs melee zero ig
its like
the same
I havent used scorn in like 4 years
yeah i wasnt really counting the difference with melee vs gun cause its forced differences
true
but any gun using build is basically the same
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
also never really used the phaselock alter skill
changing out a com isnt really a different build
sal builds vastly different depending on deputy or hoarder
turns out skill distribution is "put points in good skills, don't put points in bad skills"
yes!!
since there are generally enough points to get all the good skills now, you just get all of them instead of needing to choose
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
@wheat harbor
Ok, so now I can stack 300 but I took one out of Robot Rampage.
Sal players stop thinking the moment they get a moxxi weapon
gun krieg is kinda just gun krieg
I mean, so would I
moxxi-less sal is goated
slag moxxi weapon + dps gun is just kinda good
double butchers go brrrrrr
Is it fine to not pick up Robot Rampage?
yeh
on pc yes
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
Why on PC?
sometimes I wouldn't even end the farm with a single anarchy stack
dt bugged on pc and does less damage
Id deduct points somewhere and make every 5th bullet fired at an enemy bounce off
He can be built melee too tho.
You just never do that on PC?
I'm mostly using shotguns and it goes off the pellets so I only need 1 point.
not even bugged just
completely different health and damage formulas
The only useful thing DT has done for me was the shield exploit someone on my friendlist told me about
this freakin' game, man
