I'd focus heavier on embrace the pain and elemental elation because both are very strong fire rate buffs that apply to axe chucks
no
thats why he asked me 
I figured I'd just make up for this with BAR.
I hope your badass rank is not equivalent to 95% fire rate 
I mean, what could I drop to invest more in those?
I was thinking of running with a Grog for the +5 axes anyway..
Drop Release the Beast, Silence the Voices, Bloodsplosion & Boiling Blood?
???
just go 4 in numbed nerves and 1 in pain is power and you'll be able to grab elation, drop the points from flame flare and you can get embrace the pain
I can probably drop Feed the Meat too
i mean you could but I don't think it's too advisable
btw taste of blood kinda makes numbed nerves useless
especially if you have more than 5 points in TOB
just look at how it scales on lootlemon
So would you just put 5 in PiP?
And would you even grab Flame Flare or just throw that last point in Elemental Elation?
I'm so used to grabbing it, my fault
do those charts make more sense once you get used to it?
waittttttttt
thats interesting
you get used to it
oh also what zeta said 
i noticed that it uses the damage dealt to deal damage so 
the thing is, you have so many points that i didnt realize
wait so ToB gives you 50% DR
and NN adds another 50% so i assume with the formula it's 75% DR?
Would you even get the 1 in Flame Flare?
taste of blood's dr shows the final subtracted damage, but internally it does funky math to find the amount of hyperbolic dr needed to give that. ie it shows 75% dr, so it gives you 300% dr to make you take 1/4 the damage
numbed nerves adds to this
So ToB is all that's needed for a strong DR baseline?
yes
Do I need the 1 in Flame Flare??
This is my build i'm using rn on Terry. Spme perks like Claws are changed by UCP so I have them speced
They give swap speed per anarchy
Should be doing fine on terra, just make sure youre slagging and push through
ToB is 100%
the listed value is a lie
check LL for the actual values
which is
60%
its effectively listing the “final reduction”
so 100% dr is 50% damage taken
so the value is correct
but just with the 1/1+x formula
if its your only reduction
oh so these with 1/1+x
no those are the actual values
the game displays 1-1/1+x
wdym?
how the DR gets calculated using those values
yes
and how much with NN?
numbed nerves lists the actual value
so its only 50%
1/2.5 = 0.4
50% more reduction resulting in just 10% less damage taken
HOLY SHIT
time to rework all my builds ...........
thanks zeta, thanks for nothing ............
gives me the power to get FF though
but NN is negative scale right?
yeaahhh
ToB is dummy strong and it lying about the values is not helpful
yea
if you only play melee 
OH ITS BXR ONLY
now i deleted all my saved builds ....................
fuck you guys 
i'm way too long out of bl2

you're recovering
Go play tps
Go play any Bl game that isn't 2


Bl2 2
nah
we'll just turn into a 3d rotating polygon
What?
So bl3?
Yes a hairy mini skag
I guess a rat in Bl is a Ratch
skag is a dog
And cats are juts cats
And then 2 actually dogs exist. Bricks dead dog and then there’s a picture of a dog in TPS
maybe he got it from earth? idk
Earth is not confirmed in Bl, but the France is LOL
bruh
LOL
ember is French and she makes you get her items that have French on them and the French flag
Elpis is Australia though so maybe France is juts a whole planet
🤣🤣🤣
pourquoi.
does that mean we get baguette melee on bl4?
elpis and france are technically 2 countries from earth
at least were
so we maybe have rats canonically in the bl universe
that would have been fire
Lmfaooooo I’m so lost.
Elpis is the moon, but since Australia 2k made the game all the npcs have Australian accents
so we have 2 alternatives
either everyone from australia suddenly migrated to elpis
or elpis is somehow australia
Orrrr
It’s a joke I make cause they sound austrailina cause the game was made there
The France thins is weirder cause like again objects in game have French on them
nah that wouldn't be fun

wait
what if france also turned into a moon?
wait actually
what if every country somehow got separated from the earth and they are all mini planets now
what if we have a "earth system" somewhere that all the countries are now
You high af RN
i can't even use these
Huh?
i just want rats to be canon on bl
Tunnel rats are
mice
Okay well they aren’t
what if they are
Only earth animals confirmed are cat, dog, fish
confirmed
screaming
Dieing

wait a sec
vladof is russian right?
or soviet whatever
does that mean Putin at some moment existed on the bl universe?
or even Stalin?
Not really confirmed, and if we took this logic we could use accents to be like “Britain is real too”
What guns do y'all think got buffs in Pre-Sequel from BL2?
chokes and coughs "French"
😅
@wheat harbor drop knowledge
Flakker might've but I'm not sure
Gub (which became the Zim) for sure, Cryo was busted in Pre-Sequel
does the cryophobia count?
bc there was a pyrophobia in bl2
i dont know if any really got buffed
gub and zim have the same stats
Cry of Fear reference https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WAfrXNSyirE
bl2 parts only lists 1 flakker so it must be the same
Yes but they made it cryo instead of corrosive, so now its not a lesser hornet
yeah
cryo itself is just kinda
op
less so as a main gun element tho
more as utility
Excalibastard would like a word
the gun you dont use for its damage
Why wouldnt I use it for damage? It has high crit damage, high freeze chance and its even got a blade for stabbing after freezing
its damage blows chunks
I mean it still works as one
its just good at freezing
Nisha and Wilhelm make that gun absolutely ridiculous
oh ofc
youll just generally get more out of the main 3
Its already strong but thats even bette
which is fine
The Fatalie (the Bitch in BL2) also just got way better because of having cryo
just
the best use for cryo is freezing a crowd
not really
way worse for athena
It would've been better non ele locked
yea
How is freezing your enemy in place so you can vomit crits on them not an improvement over it having nothing?
Yeah but now its easier and you dont have to switch guns or throw a nade
and being shock or fire synergizes with athena WAY better
Hell you dont even need to buttslam
it still could roll cryo you just have more options
yeah
Did anyone use Elemental Athena? I always went with her melee set
being cryo locked kinda sucks
probably most athena players lol
wait really?
its really interesting and fun
is a VERY high octane setup compared to some of the others
Elemental sets are hit or miss for me in early game because you cant get the legendaries you want at the levels you like
Like I wanna try Hellborn Krieg but the Hellfire gets outclassed so quickly
I mean sure
hellfire is kinda ass anyway
Having an ele lock is always worse than not having one because it means it's only useful in specific areas
but it super sucks that the firehawk shield is locked
yeh
You get ONE of them per playthrough and thats it
wasnt there a laser that was both shock and fire?
Thunderfire or something?
ye
They're basically based on Kalashnikov Concern
Yeah theyre the soviets basically
so is Stalin canon? lol
wtf
sledges shotty is just
massively worse than sledges shotgun
its way slower and has 1 less projectile
It is and its REALLY unfortunate cause that was one of my favorite guns
I rarely use legendary guns on Athena outside the Thunderfire actually
Remember when the Shooting Star shield wasn't nerfed and Melee Athena just went to down?
interestingly jakobs pistols got a buff in tps
no longer having +2 max accuracy
lmao
nice to be able to spam and the accuracy not go to shit
but thats just like 12 instead of 14
Meanwhile Bl1 where I pay more attention to purples than legs
Honestly the only legendary I ever cared about in BL1 was the hellfire
zzzz
Its an amazing gun bro
The Draco was also pretty dope...assuming you knew you had one back then lol
interesting that ars lost the max accuracy reduction on zoom
not like it really did anything
and jakobs gets a bit less max accuracy
considering accuracy only effects sway
and you dont sway while shooting
there's a lot of really good guns in bl1 is the thing
so its only really min accuracy that does anything on ads
It's just boring
I mean there are, but still
so only focusing on the hellfire for legendary stuff is- yeah that
its just
purple maliwan smg cranked out
and smgs arent that interesting as a weapon type
i still enjoy it don't get me wrong
it's not as exiting to get as it used to be for me really
that wasn't the argument
Define 'boring'
it doesn't do anything cool?
yea
Like whats a legendary in BL1 that's not boring and is amazing?
orion
Legitimately asking
skullmasher
It's just a strong SMG
penetrator
god i love the orion
Those are all sniper rifles lmao
the guns that are actually different to the purples
that's it
The Remaster Legendary guns that Gearbox gave out were pretty awesome though
Nidhogg
literally stat cranked guns
Id need to see a list hold on
invader and executioner can be fun
anaconda honestly takes the cake for me as
shit bl1 legendaries
You kno what, I loved the Crux
crit merging with that goofy ass gearbox sniper 
Such a helpful gun for the claptrap DLC and the shit with the lance
Too ammo inefficient for long term use I feel otherwise yeah
the actual crux or the plauge?
oh yeah
its cool, not good
The crux shotgun
theres 2
There is??
yeah the corrosive one is bugged
Plague I'm guessing
the sns explosive crux or maliwan corrosive crux
it's supposed to be called the plauge
Maliwan Corrosive
oh
called it
the uh
hellfire of shotguns
oh come the fuck on
i wish bl1 butcher was good
that's the Plague
i like the actual crux
fun to use the bullet pattern for more reliable crits
i always chuckle that the bl2 version is literally just the original intended effect
not a legendary but i've always really liked krom's sidearm
i use it for a few levels whenever i get it
I liked the Defiler
it's just nice
I kinda wish hand cannons would come back as a seperate archetype of gun
a lot of Bl1 legs are just stats and purples can outclass quite a few of them
yuh
because theyre not balanced around a massive ammo pool
The Anarchy is a favorite of mine, it's so disgusting lmao
Its not a legendary, but still
Anarchy is mid
Isnt it like THE Craw weapon of choice?
no
no?
no
its a terrible craw weapon
I usually saw Lilith's using it tho
^
penetrators or a masher revolver is most common iirc
Mashers are the go to Craw weapons
lilith players kinda uh
suck
^
most bl players only stick to the meta
Full disclosure: Ive never beaten Crawmerax solo. The ledge trick doesnt seem to work anymore (I even looked up the modern variant that supposedly still works in the remaster) and no way can I fight him legit lmao
Your HP is just way too low
the anarchy isn't necessarily a bad gun by any means, it still works well, just other smgs work better
the ledge was never patched
Theres not even anything to do after you kill Craw anyway, except I guess go through the Moxxi slaughters, but those are infuriating
except Anarchy isn't meta
ledge is also slow and inefficient
Still laughing my ass off that its canon in the BLuniverse
actually fighting him legit is faster
you could farm for more rare-ish items
and for me also easier
either a cool hybrid or maybe like a gearbox gun from CoD
i like the skins on those
But like, there's nothing to fight anymore. Whats the point of a gun you have no targets for?
not like the enemies are gone
just killing Craw for fun
Yeah but theres nothing of note to go up against except farming Craw which gets boring fast imho
I havent killed him but im very familiar with farming bosses and raid bosses in other games and it gets stale fast
and I just like seeing what cool shit I can find
I dont think ive ever collected a single Pearl tbh LOL. Ive always wanted a Mega Cannon, speaking of BL1 legendaries
is bl4 confirmed?
I don’t mean to interrupt anything but I’m in need of some better loot for my flak cause my brother got on the game and sold all my stuff and proceeded to turn it off so I can’t buy any of it back
it's funny the map im using to fight craw seemed to actually make the ledge an even worse spot to use lol
I kinda miss Eridian weapons tbh. E-Tech was..........E-tech but I wish Eridian guns would come back. Loved their designs
Id be surprised if gbx just stopped developing a franchise that gives so much money

me but w/ Bl2 because 90% of drop sources have zero interesting mechanics or challenge
also, fuck your brother
it's supposed to be a 1:1 version of the map, just with snow and some fancier scenery, but the ledge seems to obscure way more of your vision
Bro if I have to farm King Mong for the Kaboomer Launcher or whatever its called one more fucking time im gonna drown
Not officially
Thanks
it's awful yeah
especially on krieg where you can be unlucky and get elemental 

Whoever decided "Hey lets have these bosses rarely appear and then have the gun they drop be a ohhhhh 5% chance"
Thanks Randy
yeah fuck randy
apparently people just farm haderax for badabooms which is funny as fuck
play bl3 imo
and when I complained about it in someone's stream chat their response was "don't farm them then"
Haderax is even worse holy fuck. At least King is beatable.
Haderax is easy as balls
or use bl2fix or somethin
I do, honestly I love BL3, I dont understand the hate for it in its entirety
I play on console sooooo womp womp me
it's just the story and loot pools
I thought the story was alright. It had some badass moments, to be fair
bl fans are very similar to halo fans, Bl2 to bl fans is like Halo 3 to halo fans, if every game isn't an exact copy of it it's bad
The DLC is where Bl3 really shines tho
did anyone talk about haderax? i thought they meant the chest
BL2 is the Smash Bros Melee of the franchise and honestly, while I do love the game, I think its unfair to say its the best in the series just because it has the most things
darksmoke actively farmed Haderax himself for badabooms on his 1life Krieg
Best villain? Absolutely.
Like wtf I want to use legendaries in these games but when they're locked behind a boring no skill activity I'm sorry I don't wanna play your game
not the best comparison considering melee doesn't have the most features? that's ultimate lol
Kek thats the first time i see that comparison
i get what your saying kinda
I can see it
smash bros brawl >
But not an inaccruate one tho
tabuu my beloved 🙏
Ohhhh u love tripping u love falling down stairs
Brawl had a damn fun story mode and they fumbled so fucking hard with Ultimate's 'story mode' but thats a different topic
i really like every other aspect of it
Ok, real talk
Ava is NOT that bad. She's legit one of my favorite characters. Fight me.
exept some tiny annoying things
brawl actually has some really interesting tech
hold on check media in a sec
but really bl2 also had them
Tina. LOL jk I love Tina. I loved her even when I first played the game before she had her DLC
Ive been watching Brawlternative's stuff and yeah it do
i was gonna link you the channel lmao
no opinion is wrong unless it's just a straight up lie
well she being her favourite cannot be a lie
No opinion is wrong, unless it opposes mine
true
They fucked her over by not including the cutscene in the director's cut, but even without that, she's a young orphan, she's allowed to overreact and if you talk to her after she even showed self reflection and guilt about what happened with Maya
At the end of the day, TROY killed Maya. Not Ava. Maya was always going to die--even she knew it
Ava is just a real ass person which is a breath of fresh air in a world full of goofy one off characters that serve absolutely zero purpose
^FR
me personally, i hate ava, but i'm not a sensitive bitch to try and change your opinion over such a thing.
Totally fair
I just hate when people go for my neck when I say I love her
Like honestly if the theories are true and Krieg is Tina's dad, and Krieg and Maya got together, Tina and Ava would technically be sisters and that would lead to some hilarious interactions. I think they'd play off each other very well
i think she's way too immature, but heck with it, if you like something go for it
just don't commit goddamn crimes agains humanity
or against nature
Agreed
Her DLC was also very cool
She was funny, showed some backbone and even fought alongside you
basically don't be a total bitch
I'm sorry I need to vent this because ppl always tend to immediately go to shit talking when I try explaining that I don't like Bl2
I first played as Amara so I kind of had an emotional connection. Like my character took over as Ava's teacher, in a way
I do not blame you whatsoever, tbh for the longest time, BL2 was my least favorite in the franchise despite having my favorite villain and favorite playable character, as well as other standouts like Tina and Torgue
what do you mean
ppl for some reason tend to hate you if you don't follow what they think is right
it used to be my fav until I actually sat down and grinded Tps
it's exactly what i'm talking abt
dedi farms are fucking stupid
TPS is my top tier favorite in the entire franchise and I honestly wish it got more DLC
and what is different in other games of the series?
The Claptrap DLC was fantastic tho so thats something at least. I legit cried at the end
Bl1 legendaries were exclusively world drops
For me personally, TPS has more combat options that make bosses not as much of a pain in the ass to farm, and BL3 lets you actively improve your luck and loot odds so finding legendaries or grinding them isnt a pain in the dick
Haven't tried BL3 but TPS is my favourite at the moment
another boring no skill activity like it sounds to me 
Granted I play modded
BL3 is great: they took the "every character has their own dialogue for every story beat" and RAN with it and I loved it
and the rates of said world drops were fair but not broken
i cried to the bearer of bad news
?
Craw actually takes skill
farming craw is a lot more skillfull then killing savage lee lol
^
the bl2 mission
OH, when you tell everyone that "* * * * * *" is dead?
I'm less interested about the story, since Borderlands has hardly ever been a standout due to its story, and more about the gameplay itself
yes
dedicated drops should for the most part be locked behind raids and difficult challenges
you said world drop
Gotcha, yeah that tugged at my heart
but dont get me wrong, i'd also LOVE if mobbing was much more rewarded
yeah Craw is a world drop farm
I also always got a huge boost of confidence and endophins at the final mission before you go to fight Jack or fight the COV, where everyone on Sanctuary/Sanctuary 3 gives you an item to help you
If it was me, I'd have had them all give uniques and made SURE they were GOOD uniques
and craw was the best way to get legendaries
until dehanced
under world drop farming i understand mobbing
you can get lucky with mobs and chests but craw is definitely the best option
that's actually a great idea
well i get it that craw has the world drop pool but thats not what i immediately would think off when we talk world drop farming
World drops are just items that are in the generic drop pool
when you look at the rest of the series
yeah
especially bl2
raids are fucking AWFUL for world drop farming
it's nothing up to a debate, i just said what i immediately think off
If I could mod, I'd do that: make a gun or item or whatever that fits the personality of the person that gives it to you and make them great
ye and im just saying its understandable
So getting a Harold from Bunker is a world drop
that's exactly what i was gonna say
Honestly id just have Moxxi give you a Grog that doesnt make you drunk lol
it's probably the most comparable to uranus
you farm one thing, but the one thing can drop anything
just use the rubi
that something im trying to do with my bl2 mod
have bosses drop a unique item thats specially designed for them
and again: i would love if mobbing was actually rewarding
Uranus would've been fine if the fight wasn't boring
except uh
hard
as it is now, we always talk about how good classes are at mobbing but then again mobbing is so useless other than fun for late game
despite the amount of time i've put into bl1 im still ass at craw
it's frustrating
imagine a moxxi smg called the Jackhammer
Im talking about the mission where you talk to everyone on sanctuary before you go to fight Jack
it also definitely depends on the map
running through peak and southpaw is a lotta fun
but most maps are awful mobbing experiences
i explained my idea behind the comparison
I think thats an actual gun in Bl3 LMAO
ye
i need a new defiler so bad i can't get second winds of the armored craw worms 
god dammit
i dont think most maps are awful mobbing experiences
like
the linear maps that dont connect to anything are usually pretty good
Its Hyperion tho, and no Moxxi on it
have to think abt a better name
Plague or Corrosive Wrath
southpaw, peak, the uh, bloodwing map i forget
Semi related but grinding Son of Mothrakk sucked ass
is that related?
Not even just because the gun could fly out the fucking map
oh bl2 version right
Wildlife Explotation Preserve
people always complain about how awful bl3 is because of legendary inflation but i honestly think it's much cooler than literally getting like 1 or 2 legendaries per story playthrough
that map yea
but because you had to run all the way there every single time
it may be overtuned but it's definitely the right direction
I prefer having too much than too little imho
i think people would definitely complain less if legendaries werent so busted in a playthrough
one of the worst dedi farms
wl was pretty good overall i found
looting just feels so unrewarding
i got some legendaries in my playthrough from playing and seeking out loot
Seriously, id rather drown. I got CRAZY lucky on a recent playthrough and he dropped it for me first try tho
The main problem is prolly that we dont have pearls or anything higher than leggo
and none felt busted
how is that a problem?
what does it solve?
thunderball fists?
I wouldnt say that: you still wanna roll for specific elemental drops or gun parts in some cases, like with the Lightshow, or the previously OP Crossroad
Used to be, but thankfully you can farm Sparky for that
that you dont feel like you are getting the best rarity for free
I think higher rarities are stupid outside Bl1
think of it like in b1
no i mean i dont go into a map being excited to loot everything some random ass mob drops
because its unrewarding
its a bit of oversaturation at that point which i definitely can see
I dont care that much about leggos but ooga booga pearls
agreed
the rarity system means nothing in the later games
yeah i'm aware, just wanted to take a look at it in an isolated view
I do agree its an oversaturation, and they DID tune it up to where now its a relic and you have the choice to put it on or not
hahahahahahah me and my friends sure werent. God that was a nightmare
adding different rarities just does nothing
its a different colour
because rarity colour means nothing
your technical view on it is cutting down the realistic view, different rarities can mean different thing to a player's perception
like hey
a harold is technically one of the most common items in bl2
I mean yeah, the idea of the rarity is that they also come with better stats
my point is players are percieving them wrong
Every item rarity after leg in Bl2 was just leg but a different color for the sake of a dif color
if you know your pearl is much rarer than your legendary then you're hyped to try it out (ofc that requires them being better or more special or something else)
than leggos
because theyre percieving them differently to they actually are
that's game design
crimson rarity or something
the perception around rarities is so different to what they actually functionally do or work
stuff doesnt need to always be different to get different perceptions
the reborn nerds made moxxi weapons red thats most we got
zeta
moxxi rarity is so pointless
That's actually pretty cool
I like that flavor
I agree
the functionality does not always matter in terms of game design
it does when players have false expectations
I liked the color but I dont really see the need for just moxxi weapons being red
read the part in parenthesis again...
people thing hybrids are stronger in bl1 just because theyre rarer
but really most hybrids are worse than the actual legendary
cant you weapon merge in b1
only in the bad version of the game
Here's my philosophy: Joke legendaries are totally fine, its ok to have a few. But on NO planet should a Seraph or Pearl gun EVER be bad. The first ever Pearl we got was a world drop. Guess what it was? The fucking Bearcat. Awful.
so its basically 3 weapons in 1
im just saying players have a LOT of expectations around rarity sytems
it's no joke easier to get a specific legendary you want than a specific purple
that gearbox shouldnt be beholden to in game design
thats why i said the part in parenthesis
Where are the 3 remaining storm fans
It really is and thats kinda sad
I liked Storm
and people are going to be dissapointed when reality doesnt mean expectations
rarer stuff needs to have something that justifies it
it's waaaaaaay easier, it's not even close
doesnt need to be stronger
like look at bl2 pearls
but more special can already be enough
Most of the Bl2 pearls apparently suck and that's just not ok
it shoots cool but aswipe damage
the majority of players want pearls to be stupid strong guns
but thats AWFUL game balance
They should ALL be at the very least good
well as i already said multiple times if you would be reading it
You know what we need? We need a system in the next game where can choose to level up or level down our guns
bringing back pearls is never going to actually satsify the desire for pearls if theyre done in an actually balanced way
I want them to be slightly or considerably better stats wise than leggo
it doesnt need to be stronger, can also be more special
something to be excited about
not game breaking per se
except the vasty majority of players simply dont care
the damn plasma coil is one of the most loved weapons in bl3
norfleet is so insanely loved in bl2
otherwise their rarity as you would say wouldnt mean anything
Which one was that again
shock/rad maliwan smg with a delay after every 16 shots
but its insanely OP
well if there's something special then it needs to be a viable gun still obviously
yea
FUck. Here I was thinking id gotten every Legendary in that game. I did 4 full playthroughs with every character cause I loved it so much
Maybe I should give TVHM a try LMAO
like, some unique gimmick or maybe some cool effect
im just saying the vast majority of players dont care about special or fancy
I left my flak unfinished
they simply see "does it kill"
I thought the Superball was funny
and guns that kill easier are more entertaining than guns that do actually cool stuff
think the last thing I did was killing katawaga on tvhm
okay but if you have two guns that both "kill" then you would probably enjoy the one with a funny gimmick or a funny mechanic more
But something like The Bunny? Which ONLY drops from Tubbies? Which basically means its a wasted slot to make you think you got something cool when you just wasted your time? THAT is ass
thats why i say both need to be viable
maybe
it definitely comes downt to how easy it is to get kills with it
Make Joke legendaries, but time and place matters
No disrespect but it's a looter shooter not an RPG, if folks like big damage number that's fine lol, whatever makes you kill stuff quicker. Gimmicks and flavour are always a big plus, going all in on power creep is certainly not the best approach but having at least some that do is not an inherently bad thing (all things in moderation yadda yadda)
Im biased but I crap on the gunnerang
if the gimmick one is hot ass but has a cool effect thats obviously worse
looter shooters ARE rpgs lmao
Or how good it procs specific skills on specific characters
Like the Grog Nozzle on Salvador
borderlands is literally inspired by diablo
Diaborderlands
its literally an fps ARPG
the new Metroidvania
except looter shooter is an rpg sub genre
to say its not an rpg is blatantly wrong
borderlands always has and always will be an ARPG
Its got RPG elements but I'd say its more shooter than RPG
its both?
its an arpg with fps combat
because they describe different elements of the gameplay
gun go shooty
Pardon, meant a traditional RPG (turn based and that crap), where there's heavier story elements and depth to it than just kill everything in front of you
a mostly shit one at that
Reasons to complain about bl3
completely different gun
a craprold
its not a baby harold
I mean its close enough
its a masher torgue pistol
feels like the devastator
no the issue still exists in 3 just not as bad
You use it with Nisha and it feels like a harold lmao
woa
torgue pistols feel like torgue pistols? crazy
its still a torgue pistol that shoots pellets
Conversely Borderlands leans heavily on the action aspect of it, sacrificing other characteristics more common to more "traditional RPGs" (in essence, being more "action" than anything)
The Harold does so much better than most torgue pistols or even torgue guns
its in a class of its own, you have to admit
Bl3 dedi farms are even more boring
harold is a good shotgun pistol but its kinda overrated at times
harold is just a torgue pistol with 7x pellets and almost no downside
the downside is ammo cost
but it also has a boosted mag
so yeah
ofc its kinda better
Yeah
its soooo incredibly unbalanced
Pistols or SMGs are probably the strongest gun type in BL2
but that goes for most split pellet weapons
i swear its like gearbox thought split pellet weapons would divide the damage among the pellets
To be fair, most of the raid bosses you have to fight are so infuriatingly bullshit that its kinda necessary
SMGs are kinda bleh in 2 tho
look at the harold, lyuda, sandhawk, pitchfork
smgs are awful in bl2 lmao
I loved BL2 Sandhawk
it balances out by giving enemies animalistic amounts of hp
Wasn't that just a regular torgue pistol with a fancy color?
ring ring Hello Slagga? Someones talkin' shit
can bandit get nuked off this earth
harold is uh
not a raiding weapon
its got 100% double shot chance
Then why do I see so many people using it in raid fights lmao
because
le meta
Almost every "melt raid boss" tutorial has someone going in with a harold
With the Grog?
you can shoot harold then swap to grog
I see
Harold against raid bosses is only for ssalvador glue eaters
"perceived" meta not actual meta
the smg thats not used for damage and jsut slagging
I havent ever played Sal seriously. I should give him a real try one of these days
yea
What about that one SMG that does Slag and SHock (I think?)
also Bl2 Harold kinda just
both of them are pretty mid
chulainn and floretine
Respectfully disagree
culo
feels like shit to use
Get a god roll Sheriffs badge kek
bl2 harold is a pseudoshotgun
I see
uniques can literally do anything
Plasma casters
Im talking solely unique lmao
non unique smgs do be kinda dookie besides casters
My favorite gun type is Shotguns
uniques could generally be any weapon type
Proc bb too 
a fire rate buff doesn't fix the issue
And unfortunately they usually dont get the best legendary+ treatment
because they explicitly exist to break the rules of the normal weapons
Fire rate buff, damage buff, and reload speed buff
ive been saying this!
I cant agree with that^
you can buff the stats all you want it still feels ass
yeah
their base stats are incredibly mediocre and they have no stand out parts like ARs have
ARs have the minigun, vladof and torgue barrel to make incredible ARs
I like them 
smgs just have minor stat shuffling
I do love casters, I just wish they were more common
The Yellow Jacket was a damn good caster
also ARs have the wild clamp for silly high dps but awful spread
Whats your opinion on the Chopper?
dont ARs also have a -20% crit bonus
yes
Is it ok to share videos here or do I share them in #vids-and-streams
theyre just not crit focused weapons
robbery
I have a funny video of when me and my friends fought the Badassasaurus Rex and my friend was using a Grit Axton and he rolled the Crit like 20+ times in a row
Ill link it in #vids-and-streams if anyone wants to watch
any dahl, jakobs or bandit barrel ARs just belong in the trash
smgs aare just basically
only that
i use the minigun too much
So I assume you dont like the Chopper
blows chunks
That one specifically sure but id rather use a Sandhawk than a Bearcat
a blue bandit ar is worse than a green
Whomstd eatid all my reload speed
ah yes
an extra 3 seconds on the reload time and -20% damage just for
20 more bullets in the mag
Is the Chopper not good on Salvador?
bandits already have a base mag size of 44
Like if he uses that with the Grog doesnt it just make him immortal for a while? lol
doesnt the chopper eat more ammo than actually kill?
it still has pathetic damage
yup
LOL thought so
It should have more damage, I agree
Untill drunk effect kicks in and you start to just cough bullets
I do think its hilarious that it has such a preposterously huge clip
Lead Storm/Hail exists
when the drunk comes in and your Harold fires 6x shots. thats the best
Is the hail even good???
Very
Very
I always thought it was a joke weapon cause of how it shoots
you can use it if you really want to it’s just not like very efficient
https://youtu.be/aV_YYCSvAwo?si=RRAQ1axBIvXC0LTN
it’s more a gimmick then anything
Just aim down a bit
i think it’s fun to use every once in a while
I appreciate the video but is it ok to put videos here?
if it’s bl related yeah i don’t see why not
Mods can I slap a BL related vid here
Either here or #vids-and-streams
Appreciated
Me and two of my friends were running through the Torgue DLC in Borderlands 2 to get my friend's Maya up to Level 72. The Badassasaurus usually gives us a lot of trouble, so we were taking shifts standing at the barrier and hitting it. While I was running to get more grenades...well, keep your eyes on the top screen.
Life lesson: Grit is broken.
Check this shit out. Chopper related
Watch the top screen
why does it divide then multiply weapon damage
this entire channel consists of bl2 raid speed kills, monster hunter, and CS 1.6
based
standard rarity bonuses with the special bandit ones on top
oh
Bandit infuriates me
Aight im gonna jump off. I appreciate the discussion! You all really know your stuff
Good to meet likeminded folks here
basically
theyre handled in 2 different places
so they kept the standard ones as normal
then just also did the "high rarity bandit AR" things
They're jy favorite manu yet Gbx broken their knees on most of their gun types
They look the coolest to me
But Gbx thought mag size was a so broken stat that they needed to nerf everything else
Wtf was wrong w/ SnS
yeeaaah
i actually love the concept of the cov mechanic
its just poorly done
so
i made it in 2 for bandit
I loved using CoV in 3 they were actually really good
yeah
i just felt the heat mechanic sorta barely worked and you could never reliably use it
they end up just becoming normal mag guns but worse with ammo regen
Ah yeah I get that
but i love the more emphasis on multipellets
so i basically have both
bandit pistols, ars and launchers start at x2
shotguns are 1 higher than others
for smgs
tediore barrel - x1 high fire rate
multi pellet accessory - x3 or x2 on tediore barrel
for ars
jakobs barrel - x1 high damage and accuracy
minigun barrel - x3
multi pellet accessory - x3 or x2 on jakobs barrel
multi pellet with minigun - x6 i think, slow shotgun like AR
i think i've mentioned it before but i love the arena like this
it's even cooler at night
crawsmas
true
neat
Hehe
Snake joke
the better Unforgiven

one downside to this map variant some of the loot beams are kinda hard to see ngl
and apprently its unstable
first crash
damn
yeah it'll work
goddamn a really good one i think
Favorite DLC from the 3 games here in thsi channel?
Claptrap from tps
yeah it's p good
ax and C are the big things to have in the name of the gun
and barrel 5 is very nice
not highest damage but it's p much a sniper
tho i think 200 doesnt have the best reload speed, 300 does
oh yeah part of this mod has a change that says purple items with perfect/near perfect parts get a dark red rarity and im curious how accurate that is? either way it looks really cool
so far it hasn't disappointed
screenshots through the color a bit off, it's more red in-game
here it looks brown lol
idk if it's cause im playing on a custom map but it says im hitting damage cap against the armored craw worms with it???
my game might just be bugging though, it doesn't one shot
not on crit more like when i hit near the middle of the body
I think my favorite was either Dragon's Keep or Claptrap's from TPS
Claptrap def. It also has "Mainframe" lol
Captain Scarlett and her pirate's booty, haven't gone through TPS' DLCs tho (also haven't played BL3)
CV
It's like Jakobs snipers all over again
Would a purple be better than green or about average?
ik a blue is worse than a green but a purple might even out
this can be figured out by just gibbing one in

heh yea
She was like op4/5 LOL
No way you found it
whats this?
Mopi kills a gaige 1life by driving off the cliff
I'm not quite sure of his motives outside of burnout, but he killed off a mid-OP level Gaige
lmaoo
He's not even a Gaige hater, at least not like the typical ones you see
almost perfect
So is Vladof/Torgue on Jakobs body just always better than matching barrel basically
stock could've been better
uhhh maybe?
Also what's the ideal barrel for a Bandit AR if you don't like yourself but also don't quite hate yourself
200 is worst reload
im not too sure about how matching would play into it
Woudlnt it be vladof
Idk just 'cause matching barrel gives extra damage and less recoil or sum
vladof or minigun?
yea
There both vladof
vladof barrel is really only decent on dahl
i just call em vladof and minigun to differentiate
What's the synergy there?
because its like x2 on ads
I see the Minigun barrel used on like
Everything
yeah its just really good
kinda anti synergy with fire rate
since the spinup is time based, not shot based
Minigun go brrrr
same issue bl3 has lol
gotta love high firr rate vladof pistols being able to nearly empty the mag before you spin up to max
in bl3
jakobs gatling guns:
why did they give it like +150% spinup duration on jakobs
Jakobs does Jakobs things
it's fucking STUPID
kek
You click it shoot
Since when did Randy have braincells?
its actually really annoying for me
because even with 0 spinup time it still starts at the slower fire rate
and take forever to reach something good
but trhen instantly reach the higher firr rate
(you empty the mag before you even spin up the gun fully)
Just use Metal Storm Axton then ez
which really fucks up my full auto jakobs
Use Krieg, simple solution
You're good enough to
just depends on when stuff is calculated
Spaghetti code meets Italian chef
kek
Anyways, isn't Minigun x3 on ads, so it's like a baby minigun for Dahl?
Hmm
like yes ARs have a lower crit bonus
but its still greater than 1 so youre better off hitting crits
And it's more ammo efficient? Or same bullets per projectile being used?
I see so +1 and +1 or +2 and +2
oh wait not even on add
Also weird that minigun reduces recoil and gives less penalty for spread than Vladof does
Meanwhile Vladof increases recoil
balancing fire rate
its why metal storm lowers recoil
if it didnt a lot of guns would become awful
Ahh
uhhhh
theres a delay before you start to regen accuracy
i dont remeber about recoil tho
So that'd be a no then got it
i also think the delay is just 0.2 thats not changed by anything
its why hyperion snipers accuracy starts increasing before your next shot
That's pretty funny
Invader isn't actually a bad gun tbh
Just uses a ton of ammo
But I like the brrrr on it
yeah
makes em feel very bad unless you stack fire rate boosts
my favorite thing is sprint multi-shotting with hyperion weapons
Careful or you'll hit Nurse Nina doing that
upside down... boy you turn me inside out
This is just 600 Anarchy gameplay
Nothing unusual about it
kek yeah
cause kick is based on accurscy
and sprinting increases accuracy
accuracy the stat
not
accuracy the concept
but not accuracy the stat on the card
i hate that
sprint shooting was something I wanted to toy around with but it's basically impossible to keep up without a macro (and still inconsistent with one)
me when technically speaking, increasing the accuracy value is BAD
(the actual accuracy value)
like I could be doing BL3 drive by shootings with the flakker
I did go to the entrance
I don't get no dialog no entrance no nun
I might be dumb but I think it's softlocked ngl
You have to walk up to it and press the button to open it it doesn’t look like an obvious door
But I didn't even get a prompt to press anything either
That's what makes me think I sumhow messed it up
I did I got too Mad cuz the guardians kept riding me like a rodeo show
And got on youtube
Lmfaooooo
Also I’m on PlayStation as well so if you ever need help in that game lemme know it’s print gabble game
Did the va for gogu and virgina from dragon balls zee voice sum the legion dudes?
Prolly getting in the vault and killing the dude inside
Cuz I jus remember it being a boss and lilith punches jack for sum reason and the vault symbol is engraved into his face
Id
