yeah sal is jank but if he worked like fully intended he wouldn't be as busted

#

If you need Glitches to play a character are you really playing them right

Im saying NEED glitches

sullen girder
#

Sal having his survivability cap skill tree only being once per gunzerk just.

Completely goes against the tree thats actually good

last willow
cunning sable
#

Ew

last willow
#

Its not hard to normally play 08stfu

sullen girder
#

Oh Om? So you use the glitch of Moneyshot reading the main guns mag and applying it to the off hand?

#

Tsk tsk tsk. Needing a glitch

cunning sable
#

Sal but no Gunzerk

sullen girder
#

Because like. 95% of his skills are tied to Gunzerk

last willow
sullen girder
#

At least everyone else can function without their action skill

cunning sable
#

Kreig is a sort of Do or Dont

sullen girder
#

Yeah Krieg is the only one designed with builds in mind to not use BXR

cunning sable
#

You either build for it or completely ignore it

sullen girder
#

Axton, Zer0, Maya, and Gaige are all like "Yeah using it definitely helps. But its not like we need it"

tawdry shell
#

what da hell

sullen girder
#

unless its Melee Zer0

sullen girder
cunning sable
#

Gaige to an extent can modify hers, and Axton
But gaige moreso

sullen girder
#

Love Thumper

peak ether
cunning sable
#

Stuff like Sharing is Caring and Make it Sparkle
The Clap, Robot Rampage

sullen girder
#

Spinning Claws and Love Thumper

#

It can only go well

cunning sable
#

Ive yet to use a Thumper on DT

#

Mostly I've done WTF and Transformer setups

sullen girder
#

Oh yeah, SiC lets Gaige be the only vh to use WTF

cunning sable
#

Theres aslo Black Hole shenanigans that gets funny

peak ether
#

I fucking love having all my healing in a mid as fuck skill tree totally didn't make lvling in Normal + Tvhm the most miserable agonizing experience in this piece of shit game

sullen girder
#

"Just use a grog"

#

Oh god wait

#

Grog is the bl2 reddit equivalent of verified twitter users going "@grok context???"

cunning sable
#

What if we just
Remove the grog
And rubi

#

Watch the bl2 players scramble to use any moxxi weapon

sullen girder
#

Could also make it so moxxi lifesteal isn't applied to the player

peak ether
#

Better yet

sullen girder
#

Sal players would instantly crumble under op10

peak ether
#

Just get rid of Moxxi life steal altogether

cunning sable
#

Nerf it to like
1%

sullen girder
#

Give them all nade splash actually

peak ether
#

That alone would change people's tune on Sal

#

Cause now they have to engage with his unique healing tools

cunning sable
#

They'd probably still use Hoarder setups
Thats just topneaa spam

#

Or butcher

sullen girder
#

Would KittenZerker be as viable?

#

Since Kitten is a moxxi weapon

cunning sable
#

Its good regardless of the.lifesteal isnt it

#

Like the Hail

eager laurel
#

yeah

peak ether
#

Moxxi alone kills any and all interest in Gunzerk tbh

sullen girder
#

And Creamer then

eager laurel
#

sal no lifesteal would be heavy red investment for sex rex

sullen girder
#

Creamer is genuinely like. Stupid broken and no one talks about it as a Launcher

cunning sable
#

Creamer is a funky item

peak ether
#

Because the idea of "duel wielding any weapon combo" sounds cool as fuck

#

Then you look at endgame Sal and everyones just offhanding the same 3 guns

#

Or just 2 of the same gun

cunning sable
#

The only time they did it again was Nisha?

#

And that was pistols only

#

Oh, Claptrap had funzerker

peak ether
#

Clone

sullen girder
#

Nisha was at least forced to be an exact copy and it made sense for her theme

cunning sable
peak ether
#

Zane

sullen girder
#

Jack clones just shoot the energy balls

cunning sable
#

Isnt that just a duplicate rather then dual weild

peak ether
#

Except Double Barrel is the most interesting take on the idea and it isn't even fucking duel wielding

sullen girder
#

Yeah Zane clones shoot a copy

cunning sable
#

Ahh, Grease Trap

peak ether
cunning sable
#

I didn't know that

peak ether
#

Smth smth duel wielding that doesn't require you to hold 2 guns

cunning sable
#

I dont think ive ever seen that tip

sullen girder
#

Well i gotta go get some sleep. Peace

peak ether
#

And then they make an off comment saying "there is no way this can be exploited for an unfair advantage, probably"

cunning sable
#

Would Athena and Aspis count
Cause i think you can hold it and shoot too

Oh wow ok

so for preadd you have all Jakobs weapon types except sniper, the Grog Nozzle, Leadstorm and Hyperion Pistol barrel

#

ar crit penalty is negative scale

#

and so is PiP

sharp lily
#

Ahh okay cool. Also I thought it was -25% too...strange I'm just misremembering that I guess

#

Wait does the etech AR get the -20% for the weapon type and the -50% for the barrel? @eager laurel

eager laurel
#

yes

sharp lily
#

Yikes no wonder so many people just skip over Blasters lol

eager laurel
#

and the etech snipers have -100%

sharp lily
#

gross lol. With crit being such a huge part of damage formula especially in this game that's a lot of reduction in overall damage

#

Cuts all your normal skill/gear crit bonuses in half 😬

scenic briar
#

The blaster penalty is so crummy that with enough pain is power points on krieg, you can do LESS crit damage than bodyshot damage. Pretty funny stuff

sharp lily
scenic briar
eager laurel
#

yeah it's neutral

#

but then any crit boosts from skills are getting diminished by the neg scale

scenic briar
#

Pain is power does say it doesn't grant its gun damage to snipers. Does the penalty still apply to them then?

eager laurel
#

no clue

not unless you have terrible screen tear

Only thing that could be better is the material and the stock

peak ether
#

I would've preferred barrel 5 but yeah that's a very good roll

#

But barrel 4 vs 5 is a preference thing

shy jay
#

The Golden Chest has been giving me really good gear thus far

pallid garden
#

Barrel 4 does more damage doesn't it

#

Just like less accurate

shy jay
#

It’s vladof tho
Accuracy by volume of fire is their whole thing

pallid garden
#

I would prefer barrel 5 on Roland

#

Barrel 4 on brick

#

As brick is more of a "say hello to the end of my barrel" type of guy

#

Man I can't spell for anything

#

Typical borderlands player

sharp lily
pallid garden
#

Roland is the only character I play with a distant play style

#

Everyone else I barrel stuff

shy jay
#

Just got these from a random vendor in rust commons obv not the best but still cool imo

sharp lily
#

Nice! Defender can be fun and anarchy is obviously really good.

pallid garden
#

Most playthroughs I avoid the anarchy like it's the plague

sharp lily
#

Why is that?

pallid garden
#

I find the weapon boring

#

Would prefer using a fury or a stinger over an anarchy

#

And if I want a pellet spam I'm using a shotgun or masher

sharp lily
#

That's fair. I never really use Machine Pistols because I lean more toward SMGs or MGs.

pallid garden
#

A double fury goes crazy

#

I'll always sing it's praise

#

Or say a torment on Lilith

sharp lily
pallid garden
#

I don't remember tbh

#

Stingers can reach 18.1

sharp lily
#

I wish gear calc still worked 😭

pallid garden
#

I do know a burst fire machine pistol can reach 22.something

pallid garden
#

The average for a stinger though is like 17.9

sharp lily
#

Ahh is it only the burst fire MPs that get above 20 fire rate? That's the number I was remembering 20+

pallid garden
#

Yeah the Bursts get up there

#

Regular machine pistols are on par with stingers

Sorry if I seemed like I was forcing those skill choices on you. I think they're good to keep in mind if you like not dying to dots or having decent gunzerk uptime. I used to fall for the ready already trap back in the day

last willow
scenic briar
#

Investing in Get Some allows you to restore gunzerk cooldown WHILE GUNZERKING, which also activates Keep It Piping Hot until the cooldown is fully refreshed.

#

Since get some is a chunk of cooldown, it isn't affected by ready already either

Is that a conference call:0

scenic briar
#

Elemental Hyperion shotguns in general are crazy on her. Once you get to 70, look out for 3 or 4 ammo per shot glitch Hyperion shotguns, really nasty stuff

distant ginkgo
#

BRO, that's exactly what I want

distant ginkgo
#

oh my gawd

scenic briar
#

IMO you wouldn't need company man to be glitch, since the large mag is kind of unnecessary with Unrelenting active, and I think glitch hyperions have higher base damage than it

eager laurel

Storm Weaving needs to be up and swapping off removes your active glitch effect

I once got a glitched jakobs ar that when it got to red glitch it did so much damage it phased immune phases

#

And 1 shotted bosses

distant ginkgo
scenic briar
#

I'm describing a gambling cope thing I love, not exactly optimal

distant ginkgo
#

Glitched Ravagers tho, those are heat

scenic briar
#

I would still probably go for a glitch development since it has more mag size than a regular one, and, glitch effect or not, benefits a lot from barrage. Maybe that's because I use 1 ammo per shot Hyperion on everyone, I just like the chance to use the 4 shot ones once in a while

distant ginkgo
#

isn't development more raw damage?

#

with the torgue barrel

scenic briar

Maybe, I dunno

I use it for variety

If you’re a Borderlands player then odds are you don’t know how to read this.

tall surge
#

who cares about smirk past lvl 10

dark stone
#

I can see why people would say that, with the only actual reason being to push all the way to the shield-piercing skill ASAP

peak ether
#

That skill is pretty bad

#

Enemy shields don't scale correctly

#

So just about anything will delete them

dark stone
#

Once you reach the Eridians though and have more than likely a solid sniper, you’ll probably be grinding levels off the final couple areas for a while to get money, loot, levels, etc.

peak ether
#

Any strong parts sniper is going to one shot basic enemies through their shields w/o it

peak ether
#

And even then it still isn't super necessary

#

Trespass is a noob trap

dark stone
#

I still use it for that, and if I feel the need, maybe invest in Ransack to get better loot drops along the shield piercing on Playthrough 2 then hit the Vault a couple times to see what I can score

peak ether
#

Because I'd rather use those points on something more helpful

dark stone
#

I’m a dead-set sniper at heart but I love revolvers so I only really prioritized snipers for a quick one shot headshot kill

peak ether
#

By not speccing Trespass here I can use those points to grab Swipe for more ammo and health, Gun Crazy for better weapon flexibility, Lethal Strike for potential close range dmg, or Ransack for more loot

dark stone
#

But when it comes to fighting Craw himself I’m easily overwhelmed and quickly stressed out by the sheer number and amount of enemies that I need to remember the weaknesses of

#

I’ll be fully honest the only enemy in Craw’s arena I’ve memorized the weakness of is the armored crab that needs corrosion to kill

Nothing in particular

swift sable

i need stuff thats better than this junk

lofty flame

Ravager is pretty nice unless its underleveled

swift sable

it needs to do more damage

lofty flame

You might consider getting a relic that actually increases your damage

swift sable

where

lofty flame

From the chest

swift sable
#

bad news, i can only loot 3 of the 4 chest items

lofty flame
#

Save quit and try again

swift sable

oh no i mean consistently

lofty flame
#

Missing one is better than missing all of them

swift sable
#

i mean is this just the best quality im gonna get or what

#

like all of this loot will be as meh as this

lofty flame

At that level probably, but a 17% boost is miles ahead of a 0% boost

swift sable
#

boooo

#

im having a way tougher time than i did at this part of the game on normal mode

lofty flame
#

Yeah because normal mode is much more lenient

swift sable

well yeah but i need one weapon of each damage type

#

which i dont have

#

because theres so many different types of resistances now everywhere

lofty flame
#

Welcome to borderlands farming

swift sable
#

maybe i need to actually spend my badass tokens

hollow prism
swift sable
#

healing is an issue sure but i also dont deal damage

peak ether
hollow prism
#

And a way better shield. Just getting a good turtle shield will help, especially if it lowers your health a lot for more capacity. There's a mechanic where you cannot be oneshot if you are above 50% health, it's called healthgate, so the less health you have the easier time moxxi weapons will heal since they are based on damage dealt.

swift sable
#

also, isnt the grog nozzle one of those types of guns that makes you worse at the game for using it because of how good it is

#

crutch, thats the word

hollow prism
swift sable
#

sure but i dont want to only be able to play the game with the grog nozzle

peak ether
#

Ideally you don't want to crutch on the grog

#

Other healing sources are usually better

Axton doesn't need it

#

Maya absolutely doesn't

swift sable
peak ether
#

Krieg has ToTK

hollow prism
#

Krieg doesn't need it yeah

peak ether
#

Melee Zer0 maybe

swift sable
#

law and order keeps melee zero alive no

hollow prism
#

I mean you can use slag transfusions but you want your grenade for Axton at the very least

peak ether
#

Sniper absolutely not because it breaks CA

hollow prism
#

But like grog is still a good gun you should absolutely use

peak ether
swift sable
hollow prism
swift sable
#

fair enough

#

so if all of those guns mentioned arent available, hen what can i do

peak ether
#

Punchee instead of Hide if playing legit because getting a usable Hide is awful

hollow prism
#

Slag transfusion then is a good option but it takes your grenade slot

hollow prism
#

Doesn't punchee have same damage as love thumper?

swift sable
#

but yes anyway

peak ether
swift sable
#

talking about axton again

#

i want to go back to having fun so please help me figure out where i can get the guns that wont keepgetting me killed

peak ether
#

Punchee is less dmg than Hide but you can actually get one you want

#

Respect your skills and grab Quick Charge

peak ether
#

Axton has really good shield stuff

hollow prism
hollow prism
swift sable
#

to be a puritan is to believe oneself to be above others in morality and ethics

hollow prism
#

I mean yeah that's kind of what I was getting at

swift sable
#

so technically...

hollow prism
#

Use your tools

peak ether
swift sable
#

thats why i picked the turret classes

hollow prism
peak ether
swift sable
hollow prism
#

Adaptive shields are really good too

swift sable
peak ether
swift sable
#

big groups are small

#

and theres lots of them

peak ether
#

For now

swift sable
#

no scorched earth?

hollow prism
#

You could also use a non-elemental resistance relic but might struggle for damage then.

swift sable
#

ouch there goes my dps

this better be worth it

swift sable
peak ether
swift sable
#

sure but right now

#

hold on

hollow prism
#

Assasinate the assasins... that's like, shortly after firehawk? Man I can't remember when it's unlocked

#

I thought at least one moxxi weapon was available atp...

hollow prism
#

The good touch? Yeah you can probably get that one.

peak ether
swift sable
#

where from

hollow prism
peak ether
hollow prism
#

If you're still struggling

swift sable
#

i am always struggling

hollow prism
#

They're also pretty good for damage so there's thst

swift sable
#

i do not usually suck at videogames

#

believe it or not

#

tip moxxi how much

hollow prism
#

You can get a fast ball from the firehawk quest line, it's a really good item for axton

hollow prism
swift sable
#

ah its random

peak ether
swift sable
#

does tipping more at a time increase odds

hollow prism
hollow prism
#

What

swift sable
#

urrrgh hold on

hollow prism
#

I thought fast ball was a dedicated drop from the firehawk cult leader

peak ether
#

The quest that unlocks the Fastball farm is In Memorium

#

It drops from Boll

#

Not Incinerator Clayton

swift sable
#

Does ASsassin Rouf have an issue with randomly disappearing from the game?

peak ether
#

Clayton drops the Pyrophobia

hollow prism
#

I-

#

WHY WAS I SO SURE IT WAS CLAYTON??

peak ether
#

Good question

hollow prism
#

Maybe I've seen a lot of world drop fast balls from him before

peak ether
#

I have never seen someone make that mistake

hollow prism
#

I'm an old man give me a break

#

💀

swift sable
#

assassinate the assassins done, resxpeccing now

hollow prism
#

Bruh

#

The lightning smg Wot drops (right, RIGHT?) is pretty decent.

#

It's not like, specifically good on axton but

peak ether
#

It's a gun

#

It shoots

swift sable
swift sable
#

google says that gun reeeks

#

i got it and sold it

#

it looks shiny though

peak ether
#

The Emperor or Commerce

swift sable
#

Commerce

hollow prism
#

Fr?

peak ether
#

Emperor is actually solid

swift sable
#

i sold commerce

peak ether
#

It literally has nothing special

hollow prism
#

I've heard the opposite, that the commerce is decent and the emperor is shit

peak ether
#

It straight up has no gimmicks or stat changes

#

It's just a blue Hyperion SMG and that's it

peak ether
#

And is in direct competition with the Sandhawk

swift sable
#

me when i make 3 misinputs in a row and have to resetmy skill tree three times LOL

hollow prism
#

I'm done believing what I read on the internet I'm playing with these guns meticulously and forming my own opinions

#

I clearly have gone senile and need a refresher

swift sable
#

here you go @peak ether

peak ether
#

Yeah that's fine

swift sable
#

so now what for gear again

#

tip moxxie and what else

peak ether
hollow prism
swift sable
#

kinda sucks that im gonna get to Double Up so late

#

because of this heavy survival investment

peak ether
#

Double Up is mainly important for Uvhm

hollow prism
#

It doesn't matter: survival is more of a priority. Can't deal damage if you're already dead.

peak ether
#

This early it's not too important

swift sable
#

bad touch down

hollow prism
#

That's like why you play axton anyways

swift sable
#

it doesnt look very good

hollow prism
#

Also get the fire one too

swift sable
#

good touch is next, im selling my junk for coins to give her

#

apparently this is canon too

hollow prism
#

Etechs have a really bad negative crit penalty

swift sable
#

axton stars in nudie mags with moxxie in bl3

#

from what ive been told

swift sable
#

that and the battle royale arena

hollow prism
steady jungle
#

oh

swift sable
hollow prism
#

./j

peak ether
#

E Tech SMGs are amazing

#

Pistols are fine

hollow prism
#

Yeah they're pretty decent

peak ether
#

ARs are complete ass

swift sable
#

this a good enough shield

hollow prism
#

Pistols are dookie idk what you're talking about

#

Darts are SO bad

peak ether
#

I said fine

#

Not good

#

They're usable

hollow prism
#

I'd rather use like an actually good pistol

peak ether
#

Yes

swift sable
#

i think my proudest achievement in this game would have to be

hollow prism
#

Anarchist my beloved:

peak ether
#

But if you wanted to run an E Tech pistol it'll still work

swift sable
#

(and to preface, ive made it VERY clear i cant aim)

#

but to kill jack at the very end

#

i managed to whip out a 720 noscope sniper headshot second try

#

they both use the same ammo

#

I ALSO really hate scopes

#

too bad you can only get one gun per run, because the good touch has a 2.4x zoom

hollow prism
#

I have no idea what my best accomplishment in borderlands 2 is, but getting like... 20 MMF chain with Melee Zer0? Pretty epic

swift sable
#

@peak ether dont suppose i can get another one of thsese

peak ether
#

You can get infinite Good Touchs

hollow prism
#

It was in petes bar tbf so it was like not too impressive but still.

swift sable
#

no lo se

peak ether
#

Bad Touch is once per character

swift sable
#

ah

#

well my bad touch is good enough right

hollow prism
#

And when I say 20, I mean that as a realistic estimate. The floor was covered in bodies.

hollow prism
swift sable
#

huh

peak ether
#

Dahl Grip

swift sable
peak ether
hollow prism
#

Dahl grip, F

swift sable
#

lemme alt f4

peak ether
#

No accessory either

swift sable
#

hold on

#

savescumming, the thing REAL champions do

hollow prism
#

Shit it can really spawn with no accessory?

peak ether
#

It's technically a blue

#

Not a purple

#

Iirc

hollow prism
#

I don't use SMGs I'm not as well versed in their parts

#

I know grips at least though

swift sable
hollow prism
#

Maliwan is the weird loopy one.

swift sable
#

once per character my ass pandora LOL

#

ah hold on it saved on me dammit

#

lemme try again

#

apparently you can get TWO before dam fine rescue

#

okay hold on this is some annoying RNG

#

@peak ether how hard is it to get a good uhhh roll on this gun

#

i didnt know i had to be looking at the gun model

peak ether
#

All grips are weighted equal

swift sable
#

whats an accessory

peak ether
#

And there's 5 of them

#

2 of which are ideal

swift sable
peak ether
swift sable
#

here, peep this one

peak ether
swift sable
#

bad

#

also, fun fact, its no longer called Mrs Moxies on the second one you get

peak ether
#

But the Touches don't

swift sable
#

yeah ill reroll again

#

isnt it weird though that it isnt called Mrs Moxies

#

it was like Malificious

#

i get that its coded like a prefix but still

peak ether
#

Accessory prefixes have the highest priority if present

swift sable
#

ah

#

so Mrs Moxxies is bad to see then

peak ether
#

Followed by barrel

swift sable
#

so Blade = Malificious

#

lemme guess, dahl grip

peak ether
#

Iirc the priority order goes

  1. Accessory
  2. Barrel
  3. Element
  4. Grip
swift sable
#

is that just a guarunteed roll

peak ether
#

No

swift sable
#

so im just triply unlucky

peak ether
#

You just got unlucky

#

Maliwan and Bandit are the good grips

swift sable
#

0.8% chance fwiw

peak ether
#

Bandit because it has the best base stats Maliwan because matching grip bonus

swift sable
#

So is this what the game is like except for every other gun

#

and then you have to factor in like 2% drop rates

#

and annoying clear times for bosses

peak ether
#

Pretty much

swift sable
#

diabolical

#

fun game though

swift sable
peak ether
peak ether
swift sable
#

interesting

peak ether
#

Unique guns get all of their special traits and name from their unique barrels

swift sable
#

are the barrels what give the red word buffs

peak ether
#

Yes

swift sable
#

what about for grenades that are unique then

peak ether
#

They use unique payloads iirc

hollow prism
#

Oh you said that

swift sable
#

7 resets in a row and we have seen 3 dahl grips and 4 copies of good touch

#

We love RNG

#

do my odds increase if i tip her like... slowly? or

#

do i have to wait fore the voicelines to end

hollow prism
#

Pretty sure it's actually

  1. Barrel
  2. Accessory
  3. Grip
    Since element isn't a part 🤓
hollow prism
peak ether
swift sable
#

reload speed is big

swift sable
hollow prism
swift sable
#

we've been here for like 10 min utes right

peak ether
swift sable
#

that isnt toooo bad surely clueless

#

holy shit there actually is a clueless

#

high quality server

hollow prism
peak ether
swift sable
#

eleemnts change the color scheme dont they

peak ether
hollow prism
#

Ykw I'm just going to shut the fuck up

swift sable
#

so it is visible

#

Like i had a lightning gun and a fire gun of the same gun

#

one was like white and blue, the other was red

hollow prism
#

I'm clearly in a subconsiously misinforming mood today

swift sable
#

okay so hold on

#

shes started to give me the good touch a LOT of times in a row

#

however, i have gotten the bad touch from her a second time in previous resets

#

what gives

#

is it random between the two

hollow prism
#

I've played broderlnqds 2 for like 11 fuckin years now and still don't know what the hell I'm talking about 💀

peak ether
swift sable
#

incorrect

#

Before completing A Dam Fine Rescue, Moxxi can give a second Bad Touch.
After that, Moxxi will only give the Good Touch for the rest of the playthrough.

#

additionally, In co-op, Moxxi can award this weapon once per visit to Sanctuary. If enough subsequent tips are given to be awarded the Bad Touch (or Good Touch, it happens with both), she will give the award dialog and the tip jar will lock, but she will not start the animation of offering the weapon. Leaving and re-entering Sanctuary will fix this.

eager laurel
peak ether
#

That came from the wiki so I'm already inclined to doubt it

swift sable
#

well

#

youve SEEN me get several bad touches after the first

#

so you know its possible

eager laurel
#

ll has the chance for it but i dont understand what they mean

peak ether
#

Anywho

swift sable
#

i mean you did see it right

#

im not losing my mind right

swift sable
peak ether
#

I just assumed you dashboarded or read only-ed

hollow prism
#

Just keep giving the woman money like a simp

swift sable
#

i have no idea what that means

hollow prism
#

That's what is really important here

swift sable
#

well i mean i got a bad grip and im not happy with that

eager laurel
swift sable
hollow prism
eager laurel
#

unique no accessory prefix

swift sable
#

so the absence of accessory is a prefix

#

that tracks

eager laurel
#

only for a unique gun, otherwise it will show the element / grip prefix

swift sable
#

this iss really starting to bother me

#

@peak ether when will i replace this gun and throw it out

hollow prism
#

Like 4 levels

swift sable
#

the less time i use it for the more i can justify having it suck

#

yeah alright ive gotten 12 good touches in a row

#

which is so bizzzare because i KNOW she can give the bad touch a second time

peak ether
eager laurel
#

it's just unlikely

swift sable
peak ether
#

4-5 lvls is when you should replace gear

swift sable
#

heres the good touch

peak ether
peak ether
swift sable
#

cool, taking

#

i totally forgot what i was gonna do after this

peak ether
#

You can also screenshot in the item inspect screen

swift sable
#

i spent so long alt f4ing

swift sable
#

from now on thats the plan

#

so what was step two

#

step one was get these guns

#

and now what

peak ether
#

Bl2 gun parts are actually pretty easy to learn

peak ether
swift sable
#

what about it

peak ether
#

Bandit Grip

swift sable
#

its average at best unfortunately

#

its 3 levels old

peak ether
#

Ravagers are really good shotguns

#

Torgue Barrel on a Torgue shotgun

eager laurel
#

yeah they fuck hard

swift sable
peak ether
#

Unfortunate

swift sable
#

so i just

what now

#

i feel like there was a whole list of things i was supposed to do after the touches

eager laurel
#

relic

peak ether
#

You're still using the VH RelicPsychoded

eager laurel
#

the vh relic isnt good

swift sable
#

get new relic where

eager laurel
#

anywhere

peak ether
#

That shit exists to get replaced at the first chance you get

eager laurel
#

chests usually

swift sable
#

no entiendo

#

😔

languid pendant
#

so I got this hornet, are these parts alright?

peak ether
#

Torgue Grip is decent

swift sable
#

am i really back to just resetting at the island for another hour

#

that was the wooorst

peak ether
languid pendant
#

3.2x zoom

eager laurel
languid pendant
#

and it's the floated hornet

#

oh

eager laurel
#

first what level are you

peak ether
languid pendant
#

gotcha

peak ether
#

Good

#

It's a usable roll

#

Twin is Double prefix

#

For Dahl pistols

swift sable
#

are there legendary relics

peak ether
#

Only one

eager laurel
#

one but it sucks

peak ether
#

And it's shit

swift sable
#

ive opened this chest to shitty blue sniper rifles like 3 times

#

is there a place with increased relic droprate

peak ether
#

Train?

swift sable
#

?

peak ether
#

Always has a few

swift sable
#

dont have lynchwood yet damn

peak ether
#

Marcus train from the headhunter

eager laurel
#

snowman train

peak ether
#

^

swift sable
#

hold on

eager laurel
#

you could also progress the story until Plan B and farm the quest reward

swift sable
#

newgame plus is so confusing

swift sable
#

farm how

eager laurel
#

check the mission log for it, does it show a blue relic as the reward

peak ether
eager laurel
#

then you can farm that for something decent

peak ether
#

To replace the fact in normal mode it's reward was your third gun slot

swift sable
#

so is it another alt f4 moment or a save and quit moment

eager laurel
#

readonly

languid pendant
#

does the hornet deal more damage when ads?

swift sable
#

what

peak ether
#

Efficiency and Elemental artifacts are the most popular ones

swift sable
#

sounds like cheating

eager laurel
#

you can set your save file to read only meaning it doesnt save

peak ether
#

^

swift sable
#

so not cheating?

eager laurel
#

and farm the quest reward until you get what you want

swift sable
#

where is readonly

eager laurel
#

everyone does it, also it's a singleplayer game

peak ether
#

So no one gives a shit

swift sable
eager laurel
swift sable
peak ether
eager laurel
#

yes

peak ether
#

So it's likely 4 will be the same

swift sable
#

hold on ill be back in a minute

#

Okay @eager laurel So run this by me again

#

Find the save file in my file explorer, properties, read only

#

Then what about when i find something i like

peak ether
#

Killer Six has a tutorial on how to do it

eager laurel
#

then you do the same but untick read only

#

and now your file can save

peak ether
eager laurel
#

also yeah you can watch k6s guide

#

probably easier than me explaining

swift sable
#

link please

peak ether
eager laurel
# swift sable link please

So what about bl3 (and assumedly bl4) makes you not need that

eager laurel
#

You can also get an sdk mod that does it for you with a hotkey

#

makes it super easy

eager laurel
swift sable
#

neat

#

and what am i hoping for here

eager laurel
#

elemental relics usually

#

could do grenade stockpile if you’re doing a grenade build

swift sable
#

i dont get it

#

Specific elements

#

Or

scenic briar
# swift sable Specific elements

Yeah, relics that boost single elements are important for total damage, since they provide a source of damage that's fairly rare in skill trees
