maya players when they aren’t host:

[scenic briar]

Offhost Claptrap with hyperion punch was the funniest thing to me back in 2014

[shadow coral]

Where??👀

[indigo lark]

this is vanilla (trust)

[scenic briar]

The Sarcastic Wall

[indigo lark]

The amount of sarcasm in the room was unbelievable

[calm marten]

I found the vault symbol,,,

[tawdry shell]

funny someone drew one in my town as well

[calm marten]

sometimes I wanna write huh but I know the town doesnt come across correctly
so I have to write heuh

[ionic flare]

Guys school sucks

[midnight mesa]

Girl got squashed

[elder crystal]

Is this a perfect bee shield

[sullen girder]

Yep

6.16 delay so its Double Maliwan

And Alkaline stops corrosive dot, the longest of the dots

[elder crystal]

I salvaged from two other bee shields

[sullen girder]

Okay?

[elder crystal]

so its not really legit in terms of acquisition methods

[sullen girder]

....Okay?

[autumn ledge]

What's so Legendary about this?? 🤣
(Yeah, I realize it's a Transfusion grenade at a level where I can't get them yet, but that damage is still just silly.)

Dropped by one of the assassins at the power plant.

[lofty flame]

Throw one out and see what it does

[autumn ledge]

I plan to.

[lofty flame]

There you go then

[autumn ledge]

It just LOOKS so weak it's funny.

[lofty flame]

Mind you this is the same game where the Madhous is a legendary

And the Infinity, so being "strong" is far from the standard of the rarity

[autumn ledge]

Still, 90 damage isn't a grenade. It's a firecracker. 🤣

The shock is good, and my glass cannon Zer0 will probably find it helpful.

Considering playing the power plant felt a lot like ...

[near patrol]

Leech is for healing, not damage.
The healing is based of the status effect it proc when it attach to an enemy.
Shock leech is the worst one to get because you only get 2 seconds worth of healing.
And enemies can only ever have 1 instance of a shock status at a time.

[autumn ledge]

So it IS worthless. LOL

I was thinking you could get healing from the shock, at least.

[sullen girder]

Oh wow so its even more worthless than I thought

So the only times a leech is really gonna do much is a Corrosive Leech in armored areas?

[near patrol]

yeah,
i could see it most usefull on krieg with all his status chance boost and being able to get grenade more reliably.

if an enemy has status effect immunity, its pretty useless

idk why they made it based of the status damage it deal

and not the actual impact damage of the grenade

[scenic briar]

But Krieg already has status effect lifesteal, right? Or am I misunderstanding that skill

[near patrol]

yeah he does

[scenic briar]

[sullen girder]

I mean. Leech is a budget Infection or Crossfire for Bloodlust stacks ig?

[scenic briar]

Would leech even be better than one of the elemental Exterminator grenades?

[near patrol]

Eventually i'll rework leech in my mod to actually deal damage and heal from the impact damage dealt.

[near patrol]

prolly

[eager laurel]

@unborn goblet

[near patrol]

excel gaming

[tall surge]

did you make that

[eager laurel]

do i look like i have braincells

it was gamechanger

[tall surge]

[unborn goblet]

Does the formula used factor in the chance of the kill dropping anything?

[eager laurel]

I would be surprised if it didn't

[lofty flame]

0 brain cells?

Or 4837 gravel particles?

[eager laurel]

in the formula for 1 player w/ relic uvhm 73+, 0.085 is the chance for an item from 'GD_Iris_ItemPools.EnemyDropPools.Pool_GunsAndGear_WeightedDragonGang'.
the 80/225 is for the item to be from 'GD_Iris_ItemPools.EnemyDropPools.Pool_DragonGang_Drop'
the 65/250 is for the item to be a sniper rifle, and finally the 0.4 is for it to be a Cobra

[burnt aurora]

Yo I just joined because I found something and wondered if anyone was interested.

Like 10-11 years ago, before BL2 came out, I purchased a magazine which had a print out of every enemy in the base game in one long line. I scanned it and uploaded it (on reddit at the time), as far as I know I am the only person who ever uploaded it, but I lost my mega huge scan of it, I found the actual print out earlier and was considering scanning it again if anyone wanted it for like multi monitor backgrounds or something. The quality isnt so good because the folds have deteriorated over the years. But i literally cant find anyone else who ever uploaded it.

Think its worth doing?

actually, its okay, i checked my old post and assumed the image wouldnt be there, there is a large version of it, not the huge one i had before but its big enough i guess. so maybe i wont bother

[copper wasp]

Yeah, if only for preservation purposes

[burnt aurora]

I have a feeling the old image might be the best I can do. My current scanner isnt as good as my old one and the print out hasn't improved over time, if anything its worse because the ink is gone where the paper folds.

I was never really happy with how i stitched the image together before but now that I know there is a decent sized version still in existance, I might not bother again

i did re-scan it but when i compare its not really that different now

[eager laurel]

Do you have a link to the image

Or can you post it here

[burnt aurora]

Its too large to post here, i found somewhere that allows larger image uploads, so its here:

https://files.catbox.moe/ftbm9j.png

some of the seams are really bad but I dont think I can fix them, because the scanner I have now cant even scan it at a resolution that can match the quality of this image, which in the past i considered the medium quality version.

the more i look at it the more i dislike, like on the flip side of half of this is a different poster that just says borderlands 2, and i can see it bleeding through in the sky a bit. but oh well

also snapped a quick pic of what is on the other side, the bottom one i know is very generic, wasnt sure if the top one was of any interest or wide spread

[scenic briar]

Perspective shifted tall sal isn't real, he can't hurt you:

[burnt aurora]

did a reverse image search on the top one and its in an art book of some kind anyway

[eager laurel]

that's very cool

[burnt aurora]

some digging around, i think its also in the Loot chest edition for BL2

as I can see part of it in this image.

So if anyone has that, they might be able to get a better quality version.

[shadow coral]

@vestal elm you know you want it

[vestal elm]

absolutely worth doing for archivals sake

[sharp lily]

Game over lol

[near patrol]

nice

[sharp lily]

Not the greatest parts but that mag size paired with my heavy gunner COM is giving 113 in the mag so it's pretty awesome lol

[olive spindle]

I need yall opinion. Does this resemble Maya? It’s on dbd btw, they don’t have a bluey-cyan bob cut. I’ll try to make as many borderlands characters I can.

I’ll be sending lots of photos btw. Sorry if this is off topic kinda but I don’t have photo perms (if they exist)

Dang this is hard 😭

Ok I gave up 💔

1: Maya. 2: Salvador. 3: Zane
I TRIED OK?!?

[olive spindle]

I NEED THAT MOXXI POSTER 🙏🙏😭

DONT GET ME CLOSE TO MOXXI

https://tenor.com/view/chica-chica-rizz-fnaf-fnaf-memes-fnf-gif-10558488349989271540

[wraith token]

That Salvador doesn’t look like the walking cumquat smh.

[silk jolt]

can someone tell me why I can not access the echo

[opal ingot]

you need to pick up the mission called doctor's orders from tannis

[silk jolt]

ohh, I remember. thanks\

bloodwing is just stuck like this TT

is she glitched or wot

I'll have to walk all the way back and fight all the badasses again to come back TT

[sacred lintel]

73x4

with the mercenary mod in the same chest

[silk jolt]

lol skyrim reference

[silk jolt]

0o0

this guy knows whats up

[dapper oasis]

anyone an idea why the claptrap statue is not there? tryin to get 100% achievements in bl1, i just started the dlc but the guide is saying that the statue should be there.

[coarse thistle]

The statue at Hyperion Dump doesn’t show up until after you turn in the first Claptrap parts mission to Tannis

[elder ridge]

@brittle river lmk if you want to see any specific items

[lofty flame]

If this is a peak setup you're kinda using the wrong element

[elder ridge]

Slightly worried about sniper ammo but is this looking okay?
Bratchny is just a random slag sniper i found to not loose critical ascension stacks, I will swap back to Grog if i struggle with needing healing i guess.
Relic is corrisive bone of the ancients

[eager laurel]

You should farm a good slag pimp from nvhm, it’s the best slagging sniper for zero

Also no sniper com?

[indigo lark]

you think he’s okay?

[humble harbor]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[dapper abyss]

watching a buzzard get beat by a spiderant

[bleak forge]

seems good for my first sham
(god i farmed for this way too long on both axton and zer0, my first sham ever)

(dont mind the 6 hours of playtime top left)

[tawdry shell]

[sullen girder]

Why... are you farming sham in normal mode

[bleak forge]

i was looking for the bitch

and i dont know why i farmed for the bitch in the first place

[sullen girder]

Anyway its likely really underleveled. Just, use something that actually has capacity to save you. Since anything thats not a bullet will delete the shield

[bleak forge]

its got a place in the safe then

[peak ether]

Finally got everyone to max lvl on my old account

[flint swallow]

[long solar]

I don't believe it

The fact your so casual about getting a perfect sham for your first ever one is suspicious

[bleak forge]

Its perfect?

Well i know its shit anyways
2 melees attacks and the shield is gone
Only use is to regain rockets with logans gun, that i also got from loot midgets

I wanted the bitch smg in the first place as i said

[peak ether]

Arguably a 93% roll is better defensively apparently

[sullen girder]

More capacity due to Anshin capacitor compared to Hyperion for basically no difference in absorb

94 Sham is just overhyped tbh

[opal ingot]

anshin
sham

[sullen girder]

Oh its Maliwan, Hyperion, Tediore, Vladof, Dahl that can spawn on sham then

I don't care much about that

[jaunty totem]

@sullen girder u have a nice name (it's uhh in ur bio and uhh u said u would like a compliment) have a great day

[lime spire]

@near patrol build now

[scenic briar]

+7 on wreck?

[trim hinge]

probably one of those goofy ah save edited class mods

with +7

[scenic briar]

Smh my head

You know those aren't sanity checked on console?

Them and grenade hybrids, for some reason

[trim hinge]

yeah its sum

[thorny jasper]

@vernal iris @trim hinge

[vernal iris]

and your skill tree?

asked for that as well

oh

im blind, my bad

[pastel zealot]

im no maya expert but im pretty sure you can find better guns for her than a bloody underlevelled sniper man

[trim hinge]

that skullmasher should be doing some work

[pastel zealot]

also as i said just go farm chests for on level loot or even tubby enemies maybe? i dont understand how they work rarity and level wise

[trim hinge]

matching grip as well

thats very nice

[vernal iris]

so long as they are in UVMH

[thorny jasper]

Every time I go looking for stuff it's always green shit lol

[vernal iris]

any thing opened is a 5% chance for loot mig

[pastel zealot]

youre looking at red chests right?

[trim hinge]

green stuff can be pretty great

[pastel zealot]

wait do you have marcus' dlc

[trim hinge]

just gotta know what gear to look for

[vernal iris]

assuming what I read was correct that is

[thorny jasper]

Up until this point yes

[trim hinge]

this game is a knowledge check more than anything

[pastel zealot]

farm that
go do that if you dont have tthe loot midget mission/you messed it up

just marcus dlc or if you have doctor's orders or whatever the fuck just do that, farm the midgets and ignore the coms

since if you pick up a com 1 less midget spawns

[vernal iris]

huh

[trim hinge]

rainbow

[vernal iris]

very legit ones as well looks at backpack capacity

[trim hinge]

thas how my backpack on my main character saves looks like I'm ngl

my main gaige had like 300 items

[vernal iris]

how

[trim hinge]

mission items and such overflow into ur backpack anyway even if it's full

so you can technically reach 600 items in backpack

[vernal iris]

yeah but then you cant ever pick anything up again lmao

[trim hinge]

you can swap that useless mission reward gear with items from the ground

[vernal iris]

oh let me guess, by hold equipping?

[trim hinge]

yep

[vernal iris]

never thought to try that

huh

[trim hinge]

its neat tech

[lime spire]

Do I really want these bottom blue skills?

I mainly play solo

But this is derchlands build

[lofty flame]

If life tap still gives lifesteal yeah you probably do

[lime spire]

Yeah it's does

Fuck it I'll just copy the build and play with it for the weekend see how it feels

I've just never gotten used to using scorn

@near patrol any change you'd make to the build?

[near patrol]

At op 10, 1 point into life tap is enough with how much damage you deal compared to your low health pool

I think it's fine

I don't play coop, so i would not take restoration personally

1 point in Blight Phoenix can be used stagger some enemies

[scenic briar]

But doesn't play nice with barrels, right?

[near patrol]

never had much issues from memory

[trim hinge]

its not as bad as shock and agh

[near patrol]

to be fair i tend to shot every barrel i see on sight, out of hate

[scenic briar]

Real

[trim hinge]

I just say nah I'd win

and I win

[scenic briar]

@pastel zealot how is this for krieg gameplay

[near patrol]

good mod is when krieg can use shieds that aren't anshin,
that's why oselands is goated.
i love how melee krieg and black hole can be made to work together in oselands

[scenic briar]

How does that work?

[near patrol]

Ose made nova shield work by dealing damage instead of breaking

and then gave them a cooldown

[scenic briar]

Oh yeah that'll definitely do it lol

The mod I'm running is really a bunch of them stuck together, but characters are mostly azurelands. Krieg felt kinda shitty so I made him crazy out of spite

@fickle mirage tediore guy approved? (even if it isn't optimized)

[fickle mirage]

ive tried a gew times to do BL2 tediore stuff but then i member that constructors have 80% grenade resistance and i get sad

[scenic briar]

I don't think this pistol does grenade splash

I actually have no idea what the beam does

[fickle mirage]

the gunerang?

[scenic briar]

That is NOT the gunerang joe

[fickle mirage]

i actually cant tell whats going on

when did they make a pearl tediore pistol

[scenic briar]

Funkzone or radiance overhauls I think

[fickle mirage]

oh BOOOOOO you got my hopes up

otherwise good job
am always proud of you

[scenic briar]

There are good tediore allegiance items in the game, I just don't have them on my main krieg

[vernal iris]

I fucking HATE tediore weapons

I burn through so much ammo

[fickle mirage]

try throwing them at enemies! theyll do damage!

[scenic briar]

They do be doing that though

[vernal iris]

I understand how they work

Dont like them

terrible weapon design as well

[fickle mirage]

look youre using bullets anyway might as well use them quickly

[shadow coral]

Finally got bl1 for pc but the 3rd person mod doesn't exist anymore. And the other methods don't look like they work cuz all the files are different

[silk jolt]

yall this guy wont go down from 1hp and so i cant finish the quest

even after respawning

ok it got fixed after I re teleported

weird tho

[shadow coral]

The obvious choice.
Before this, I've only ever played bl1 on xbox one so this is a huge improvement.

[pallid garden]

Should've chose the prettiest siren

[shadow coral]

Xbox audio is also horrible especially for headphones. None of the games had any bass and the eq apps were all subscription based. Pc audio is so much better

[midnight mesa]

Yeah, poor Brick is barely on the photo.

[midnight mesa]

I'm still deeply surprised that even BL1 still looks this good.

The art style seems to never age bad, maybe just a bit rough in some parts but nothing too offensive

[silk jolt]

recharge delay is more than 3 minutes, damn

[cunning sable]

Its a roid

So thats a good thing

[silk jolt]

I tried doing melee attacks with it. its meh dmg

maybe it is suspposed to be used with slag

[cunning sable]

I think you got a bad one

I see bandit part, that lowers its damage

[silk jolt]

ohh, makes sense

[cunning sable]

I also dont know who your using it on cause others make better use of it

[silk jolt]

i'm maya

[cunning sable]

Oh, then next to useless
Not built for melee

But

You can keep it for Fleet

[silk jolt]

whats fleet

[cunning sable]

One of her skills

[silk jolt]

oh

i c

[cunning sable]

Movement speed for depleted sheild

Of course if you want an easier choice theres the Rough Rider for that

[silk jolt]

i have a question. is it worth farming for stuff when i am not max level. cuz I think about the amount of time spent on farming it and then after a few levels it drops off

[cunning sable]

Not really

For the most part until Uvhm you kinda just take whats given
And even then you save what missions you know whats good and keep it on the backburner for max lv

[silk jolt]

tanks

[silk jolt]

so mission loot scales with your level? nott the mission's level?

[cunning sable]

In uvhm everything scales with you

Unless you pick up a mission then it stays that level

[silk jolt]

ohh

[pastel zealot]

No idea what's going on in this video
This is a good thing. Im very proud.

[shadow coral]

The main things that look off to me are the lighting and the dead eyes. Eyes never actually move in bl1 and while Enhanced improved the lighting, Gearbox neglected to fully make use of the newer system and left most objects without shadows. There is a shader mod that fixes that but some of the areas can look a little blown out.

[midnight mesa]

I see, it's expected that an old title can look a bit rough arround the edges

The last image for me feels like it's a bit too illuminated, besides that it looks a bit better

[shadow coral]

This mod uses a combination of 2 mods. A ray tracing shader and another one on the nexus. So its customizable.

[midnight mesa]

Man, always have the strange sensation of why the bending machines didn't have any light reflection

Now seeing it makes it so obvious

[shadow coral]

Yup. They don't emit any light despite the entire front being a bright light panel. The better lighting can definitely bring out some of the faults of bl1 being so old. The detail on that pipe next to the vending looks fine in regular bl1 but the rt mod really shows that it's lower poly

[midnight mesa]

I see, probably gonna return to play BL1 again with Brick

[olive spindle]

@shadow coral idk if you know this exists. I saw it in game, forgot the screenshot so this is a random photo from google. If you’ve seen it, forgive me, I’m new to the sever.

But like…

https://tenor.com/view/anthony-adams-rubbing-hands-together-spice-adams-vyd3n-meme-man-behind-tree-meme-gif-2569343513927502347

[shadow coral]

Yup. I used it when i first played in 2015

I started recreating it in blender with a model too

[olive spindle]

Damn. Simping for 10 years or is that just horny teen stage?

[olive spindle]

Freaky ahhh

[shadow coral]

Bl2 was my first bl game and i played bl1 at the same time. My obsession with Lilith didn't really start until bl3 though

[olive spindle]

Fair. You obsess over Lilith. I obsess over Moxxi. No judgement here.

Yes. I know. Basic.

[vernal iris]

@sullen girder

[sullen girder]

This is what I'd probably use as an idea

https://www.lootlemon.com/class/maya#_4000000000_5505000000_3550510511

@trim hinge do you play Maya?

[vernal iris]

why imolate? building around the idea of going down feels weird

[sullen girder]

It does gonga busted damage

Also needed skill points for Ruin

Flicker is kinda useless

[near patrol]

immolate double dip a lot of damage multipliers like slag for exemple, for bonker damage,
it's very broken, give you a free second wind against anything flesh

[olive spindle]

Ahem. What just happened?

[shadow coral]

Lilith's voice🎶😌

[olive spindle]

I wanna know why the bandits locked in and sent me to space? 😭🙏

Oh and tvhm Zer0 with b0re is SO much better then tvhm Krieg

Krieg is still my fav vh in bl2 but man is zero ez

[opal ingot]

pro tip you drive faster with the barrel technical

[opal ingot]

who?

[peak ether]

@floral star

This is all I'm missing on my newer account

[floral star]

newer account?

[peak ether]

And this is my save list

[floral star]

how many times have you done this

[peak ether]

It's closer to all 80 than my older one

[floral star]

also why would you put yourself through that

That is an absolutely insane amount of replays through the game. I was trudging through the story on PT2 of my only higher than level 10 character

and those 3 achievements weren't getting any closer with the new saves lol
i am willing to bet it has to be with one character.

[peak ether]

Yup

This is what my older account achievement progress looks like

[peak ether]

Bl1 is my favorite game of all time

Is why

[floral star]

i feel the same way about risk of rain 2, but goodness me that is a lot of hours sank into bl1

[peak ether]

Fun fact

[floral star]

we'll uh... ignore my 2.5k hours wasted on dead by daylight

[peak ether]

You know the Underdome 20 rounders?

I did all three 4 times

[floral star]

yeah i think i recall you saying you did those just to challenge yourself

[peak ether]

Once for every VH

[floral star]

literally never again. I may love Borderlands, but that was an absolute slog.

[peak ether]

To be honest my older account has absolutely nothing compared to my newer one

All those achievements outside the character specific ones where all done on a single Lilith I deleted years ago

[floral star]

alright i've got MINAC on minimal HP and I'm tired of watching the game, it's time for me to AFK. once I've got this game 100%, I'll be happy and can move on to the pre sequel

[peak ether]

And when I stated my hyper grinding it was all on my newer one so I've just been regrinding my older account up to speed

And this is my progress

[floral star]

averaging 15 hours for one character is also wild I think it took me somewhere around 30 to 40 hours to get my Mordecai up to where I am now, which is still not max level

[peak ether]

I did Pt2 on that Lilith practically start to finish in a day

[floral star]

...you surely are a specimen.

[peak ether]

Nah I'm just Autistic

And when I got both Lilith and Brick's pt2 stories done I got both from around lvl 50 to 69 on the same day as well

!?

[peak ether]

To add to the absurd Craw is how I gear freshly maxxed out characters

[tawdry shell]

!?
yoooo like like

https://youtu.be/Li4j82QbBvk?si=ySM6AdXTap5m0zhO

[peak ether]

Thx I wanted to look for this

[tawdry shell]

it’s surprisingly not that hard to search

[peak ether]

Really?

[tawdry shell]

yeah

you just type in “mario kart video you can’t search for”

one of the first vids that pops up

[peak ether]

Idk I only recently got into racing games so

[tawdry shell]

mario kart and burnout are the only ones i’ve really played

[peak ether]

I tried Burnout Paradise

Didn't really click

This shit is so ass

[tawdry shell]

original trilogy is what i recommend

haven’t played paradise but always heard mixed reviews

burnout 3 was the main one i played

[peak ether]

I've been mostly playing Forza

I'd say I'm ready for Craw

[floral star]

@peak ether this is my Hellfire lol

I do not think it seems like anything special, but it is mine

[peak ether]

Breaking news the easiest character to kill Craw with is in fact the easiest character to kill Craw with

[peak ether]

Almost perfect non Thumper roll

[floral star]

huh, i never would have guessed. I just started using it though

[peak ether]

Invader drop

These are pretty uncommon

Also body 4 Ogre :/

Nevermind

And a Body 5 Cobra too

[peak ether]

@ripe timber

[ripe timber]

dap for that thats sick

[ripe timber]

better than mine

my anarchy. really nice for bosses

[lilac wing]

was doing some research and i was wondering if this was true, since fandom wikis arent perfect

[scenic briar]

What content is that for?

[shadow coral]

despite me beating the game a bunch of times as Lilith, i've never fought Craw. And if i did, i probably died insantly and never tried again

[tawdry shell]

have you tired bl2 with the lilith mod yet?

[shadow coral]

Yeah. I did that years ago but it stopped working after i took a month break

Did it in 3rd person to play tina's dlc in preparation for Wonderlands

I haven't played any of the other dlcs but if I do, I'd need to get that mod working again

[peak ether]

Lil vs Craw is a very easy raid matchup

Her entire kit is just the perfect storm to shit all over him

Built in crit buff

An action skill that's an on demand heal, reposition, and line of sight break

Improved proccing ability for the adds

[shadow coral]

I always focus on stuff that makes phasewalk cooldown super short and last longer

[peak ether]

Sniper buffing class mod

There's a reason why when you see people speedkill Craw the two most likely suspects they're using are Lilith and Mordecai

These two characters are just flat out the fastest at getting the job done

[wide fog]

i mean mordecai has the damage just not the mobility
lilith has the damage and the mobility
clear winner

mordecai is fine tho if ur able to land some good grenade jumps

[sullen girder]

And Damage Resistance when you leave phase

[elder crystal]

Bruh Uranus dropped a near perfect CC again

[eager laurel]

Good for slagging haderax

[elder crystal]

okay then

...Fuck you marcus

Which one is better

[sullen girder]

Are you serious?

[elder crystal]

I mean prefix wise

Tech 2 or Moon clip

[sullen girder]

Crit (Tech 2) but Basic (Tech 3) is better than both

According to the Lootlemon variant anyway

I dont think Omen can spawn with VGrip so thats why its not Gentle being best

[elder crystal]

Might farm more

[olive spindle]

I love that sound 🙂
(headphone warning)

[shadow coral]

Is there a console command to control the camera without the player?

For bl1 goty enhanced

[tawdry shell]

like a photo mode?

there’s a mod for that now iirc

oh wait enhanced nvm

[shadow coral]

I checked the modding discord and nobody makes mods for enhanced

[bold marsh]

This isn’t the finished tattoo lol

[lime spire]

@next plover current build

[proud hull]

What is this program?

[elder crystal]

Gibbed save editor

[proud hull]

Thanks

[shadow coral]

I got regular bl1 goty so now I'll be able to do 3rd person. Really wanted the better textures from enhanced though

[tawdry shell]

your in luck lol

https://www.nexusmods.com/borderlands/mods/101

[shadow coral]

Thanks

[tawdry shell]

this mod like just released as well lol

i imagine it’ll pair well with reshade also

[shadow coral]

Nevermind still can't do it. I don't have a WillowInput file and the default one looks different than any video or guide I've seen

[minor plank]

If anyone has tried this, please check the textures at that last built up area in Deep Fathoms before crossing the bridge to Road's end (Secret Armory of General Knoxx)
BL Enhanced had black textures there so i have not tried it yet.

[shadow coral]

finally got it to work

[minor plank]

normal bl1/goty didn't have a chest there right?

[scenic briar]

Nope

[tawdry shell]

it was added in enhanced to match the rest of the games i guess

let’s them add shift codes to bl1

it’s in new haven as well

[minor plank]

Ya. was trying to figure out what he was doing in enhanced when the previous question seemed to be about original bl1

[limpid rivet]

unfortunate results of 5 bunkers a day for a 94% sham until BL4 drops (starting today)

[eager laurel]

you should have started earlier

5 a day for 20 days is only 100 shams whereas a perfect sham is 1/3750

[sullen girder]

Ya you only have 3 weeks or so

[elder crystal]

Or just install a mod that lets you salvage parts

And then get a bunch of shams and piece them together

[wide fog]

then what’s the point

at that point just tell them to gib a sham

[bleak forge]

I hope you are zer0

[pine minnow]

run 50 a day tbh 😭

[sullen girder]

Yeah you just need to roll 3 seperate 1/5s which. Isn't all that hard.

[sullen girder]

Also sometimes people farm just for the sake of getting a rare drop. Not to use it

[near patrol]

god this is so much money

[scenic briar]

Vendor legendary? What is this, TPS?

[near patrol]

Its like close to 1% in tps or something.
i know the item of the day can't be common/uncommon after a specific level.
meanwhile bl2 item of the day is kinda sad

[trail sonnet]

Someone to help me raise a new character to level 80?

[near patrol]

big money, this would be good for felicity but i'm super broke

[opal ingot]

just get money

[midnight mesa]

I remember appearing the 88 Fragnum (The Harold) but was absurdly expensive and the time was almost over.

Still sad about not being able to get it

[scenic briar]

Fragnum isn't anything too exciting unless you're on claptrap or jack imo

[midnight mesa]

I was on Jack

Well, Timothy

[peak ether]

Mongol side rockets don't get the element

But you probably knew that

[lofty flame]

It could be modded and they fixed it

[tawdry shell]

it’s so good when it’s fixed

zeta sent a fix for it for me on bl2 a while back (i think it was zeta)

having a fire one and stacking drunk effects lead to really funny raid kills

[near patrol]

yeah matching element with fixed mongol is great
i'm playing vanilla tps rn
i have no issue with the core balance
exodus is cool, i think i played it a long time ago

also damn killbot + a shotty is going super hard
i'll eventually will move to nova spam with tediore throw

brotrap also giving me crazy amount of health,
give like 6X time more health boosts than other coms for some reason

[hollow prism]

What mod did this lol

[eager laurel]

from tinder or one of his adds?

[hollow prism]

tinder

[scenic briar]

Tinder snowflake if he was added in FFS

[near patrol]

did not even know she dropped an head

[scenic briar]

Isn't that the stupidly rare one that only drops from the story clear?

[eager laurel]

Yeah

[near patrol]

oh yeah
there like 2 version of felicity for some reason

TPS team is really good at fucking up,
You can stack Start With A Bang by constantly reloading,
and the Prolaterian Revolution allow you do this so easily.

[scenic briar]

Common claptrap w

[near patrol]

Nice,
Somehow a laser disker throw would still do more damage cause that gun is dumb as shit

[eager laurel]

that's possible in vanilla

[gaunt harbor]

@lofty flame I got floor ammo, fucking nothing

[lofty flame]

Show your inventory, class mod, and skill trees

You have something with -mag size on

Take that out

[gaunt harbor]

Oh ok the beginner class mode has mag size

Took the class mod off and it works like a charm

[lofty flame]

@sullen girder killing u for misinformation it was Punk class mod smh

[gaunt harbor]

Shop of pure ass

[peak ether]

Normal bl2 venders

They're always ass

[limpid rivet]

was busy with school

[limpid rivet]

yes

[limpid rivet]

thats a lot of bunkers

[midnight mesa]

Expecting good gear on the vendors of BL2 is never possible

Worse when BL2 always gives you a lot of money compared to the rest of the games

[shadow coral]

I got a legendary out of the Fyrestone chest. Immediately sold it

[elder ridge]

I'm really bad at parts of items/ weapons.

So is this bandit capacitor, Torgue body (guaranteed?), and no idea what battery. Is the 'Special' stat the only one i really care about for the bee?
Also is there a better res photo of this out there/ a better way of looking at the parts?

[opal ingot]

?parts

[serene escarp]

Bl1 Part Visual Charts

https://borderlands.fandom.com/wiki/Gun_Component_Charts
BL2 & TPS Parts
https://bl2.parts/

[sullen girder]

My data won't let me view images right now. But theres an inspect button

So you can click the bee shield, and then look at the bottom of the screen for what the inspect button is

And Torgue body is guaranteed. So we just ignore it

[eager laurel]

that shield guide is inaccurate, use https://bl2.parts/shields/ instead

[sullen girder]

Bee

its the same site

[elder ridge]

oh, the numbers are quite different.
Is the special the only stat i really care about for the bee?

[eager laurel]

Their pic showed the steam guide shitty one

that only listed the stats from -3 to +3

[sullen girder]

Yes. Though Tediore is still good because of the delay (Hyperion can't spawn on Bee)

[elder ridge]

because I will die near instantly with the bee as Zer0 anyway

[sullen girder]

Someone else linked bl2.parts already

[eager laurel]

yeah i know but no one mentioned why they should use it instead

[sullen girder]

Yeah its only meant for bosses anyway

[eager laurel]

because that other guide doesn’t show the full picture

it shrinks all the boosts down to -3 / +3 when they can actually go to -6 / +8 (for special)

[sullen girder]

Anyway what parts did they even get on their Bee

[eager laurel]

Bandit cap anshin battery

[sullen girder]

Eh

[eager laurel]

-4 special

[elder ridge]

ahh, so when people mention 'grade' for a shield, is the special stat what they mean?

[eager laurel]

yeah the special grade

[elder ridge]

got it, thank you all 🙂

[sullen girder]

Oh and Charles. Maliwan and Pangolin battery are identical in looks. So ya gotta go off of stats

Delay is the easiest to use

[elder ridge]

yeah i was wondering about that, thanks for clearing it up 🙂

[sullen girder]

If ya need help. Just ping me with what the delay and other part is. I've pretty much memorized Bee Delay's because of my farming

[elder ridge]

hey, so would this be Pangolin battery and maliwan capacitor

[opal ingot]

the other way around

[lofty flame]

Top part is always capacitor when inspecting

[sullen girder]

Pangolin Capacitor. Maliwan Battery

[elder ridge]

so it is ordered like this?

[sullen girder]

Yes

[sullen girder]

@eager laurel Do you know Sal skills

[elder ridge]

ahh, i got confused because they are listed in a different order at the top

ty

[elder ridge]

is this good? Seems to have much higher amp than the other ones i have

[opal ingot]

that's double maliwan aka highest special

which is also very rare to even find maliwan parts on this

[elder ridge]

i was thinking that i felt like i was getting fewer maliwan parts. I was just trying to get one with a maliwan and a non negative part.
welp, guess im done farming the bee

Also, what are the chances to get the prefix on the bee?

[scenic briar]

Prefix is related to the status immunity part, and most of those are the rare maliwan parts

There's also the less rare torgue one that resists explosive, but it gives way worse special stats

[shadow coral]

i never knew vehicles had target locks. Is this specific to enhanced?

[lofty flame]

Nope

Its in og too

[shadow coral]

i guess just not on console

[lofty flame]

It is on xbox

I think its A

[shadow coral]

i dont think ive ever pressed a while driving

and ive beat the game a bunch of times

[scenic briar]

It's actually not bad with the machine gun turret, especially for areas like the headland or salt flats

[shadow coral]

this is the legendary i got in the chest. useless to me though cuz i dont do melee much

and the earbuds i use have really good bass but for some reason her melee yell specifically gets really loud

[eager laurel]

It’s actually the same rarity as a maliwan capacitor

both have a weight of 10 whereas most other capacitors have a weight of 100

[scenic briar]

I'm literally never saying anything about bl2 again bro

[eager laurel]

tediore sometimes has a weight of 200

[eager laurel]

90% of the time the shit you say is spot on and well articulated

[scenic briar]

I thought torgue was rarer than average but not as much as maliwan. Knew about the tediore thing though! Partial credit... 🙁

Eh, 90% is not good enough when people need to know correct info

[eager laurel]

torgue’s other parts (body and battery) are more common, being 100 weight

[eager laurel]

the only things i can recall you getting wrong is usually just useless info, like vermi being female etc

[scenic briar]

I screwed some stuff in bl3 too, and that gets a lot of question traffic, I don't even have the excuse of "my version of the game is barely recognizable" like with 2

Console bl3 in the big 25

[frank pebble]

Bruh, I can't send screenshots 😭 I just got a doc's striker farming RedBelly for moonstones

[eager laurel]

you can now

[near patrol]

finally, shock would prolly be better overall but i'm gonna it

[opal ingot]

gonna it

[peak ether]

[frank pebble]

Should I respec? Playing Athena

[karmic dew]

Ohh

[peak ether]

This early shouldn't matter too much

[frank pebble]

Also does the infinite money thing with the echo still work?

[peak ether]

Yes

But only if you're playing a base game VH

It doesn't work for Jack and Aurelia's ECHOs

[frank pebble]

Ah gotcha

[frank pebble]

I can confirm it does not work for me

it cost 100 to buy back haha

[elder ridge]

Is this a fairly okay roll?
I think matching grip, okay element and swift is okay?

no sight is a little sad

[sullen girder]

Matching grip always makes it good

Ferocious and Rabid would be better. But its whatever

[elder ridge]

my game just crashed before i had excepted the reward...
welp, guess that one wasn't it after aall

matching grip again tho, and a sight, honestly sure, probably a bit worse but does it really matter?

[sullen girder]

I'd say its better

I forget what Severe does. But Dahl stock is best stock

[peak ether]

Accuracy

[spare salmon]

sub-hour BL1 enhanced any% speedrun before BL4?

[opal ingot]

no

[elder ridge]

uhh, im struggling to work out what parts this has.
I think it is torgue grip, tediore stock and i think it has an attachment to the right of the sight but if so, i'm not sure what it does

[eager laurel]

yeah torgue grip and tediore stock, accessory can be one of three, they all use the same mesh

[elder ridge]

This is the one to keep, surely.
Matching grip and the vert grip

[tawdry shell]

there’s a mod that tells you parts btw

makes things a lot easier

iirc there’s a version that shows what the parts boost as well, but i’ve never found it

[cunning sable]

Wrong stock keep going

If you're on pc. The parts mod is sdk part notifier

[scenic briar]

Wait ose what are you cooking, what do you mean cost

[rare valve]

👍

[scenic briar]

Oh snap that's cool

[tawdry shell]

splendid

that’s like what some of the grenades do in the arsenal

in bl1

same with some of the eridian ones

i think there’s one evil ass grande in that mod that throws every single one of your grenades all at once as a bunch of rubberized ones

[sullen girder]

Why the fuck are you back here

[rare valve]

i thought it would be funny

literally no other reason

[wide fog]

LITERALLY the only reason

[tawdry shell]

valid

the system as a whole is essentially finished, and only need number tweaking so now that i'm here i can post the changes

WTF!!

[livid ore]

my inf pistol doesnt have any ammo in the clip and wont let me shoot or reload lol

So good i cant shoot it 🔥

[tawdry shell]

https://www.lootlemon.com/skill/gaige-smaller-lighter-faster

that's why

either spec out of that skill or use one of her coms that boosts mag size (i think thats a thing anyways)

[livid ore]

Thats

funny actually

[sullen girder]

Neutral Necromancer

Everyone has em

[peak ether]

Alternatively

Don't use the Infinity

[livid ore]

Infinity gaige sounds at the very least

fun

[sullen girder]

Not really

[limpid rivet]

❌

[livid ore]

?

[peak ether]

Infinity is the definition of a nothing burger gun in my eyes

Not good enough to be worth using

[limpid rivet]

the infinity is just really weak

[peak ether]

No fun gimmick to learn or meme around with

[limpid rivet]

if you want a pistol to use, the ricocheting fibber is always nice

[peak ether]

It just has nothing special

[limpid rivet]

its honestly sort of nostalgic to me, but thats about it

[livid ore]

w/Anarchy???

inf ammo, doesn't need a reload with stacks

And shock isnt bad

[peak ether]

There's many many guns I'd rather run

[limpid rivet]

majority of the time you're better off just element matching

[near patrol]

anarchist pistol ❤️

with my legendary anarchist com

[peak ether]

Also Gaige has nothing to offer the Infinity and the Infinity has nothing to offer to Gaige

[livid ore]

Also, quick question. What's a good Gaige class mod

i have the legendary mechromancer one

[peak ether]

Necromancer, Prodigy, Jill of all Trades

[limpid rivet]

also, you'd have to use a com to boost the infinity pistol back to usuable because anarchy reduces mag size which should in theory make the infinity pistol mag 0 meaning you cant shoot

[peak ether]

Leg Mechro is kinda :/

[near patrol]

legendary anarchist is really nice

for low anarchy stack

[peak ether]

Gaige's class mod line up is probably the weakest in the game

[limpid rivet]

are you going specifically shock anarchy?

[livid ore]

im still in TVM so im not sure where to get these

(noobish still)

[livid ore]

That's the idea

[peak ether]

Prodigy and Jill are normal class mods

Necromancer drops from Mimic chests

[limpid rivet]

uhh you could go Chaotic Good Necro with +6 WDT i guess? im not well versed in gaige

if you want specifically shock + anarchy stacks

[peak ether]

I don't recommend going all in on Shock

[limpid rivet]

me either

[peak ether]

WDT is a good skill if you just so happen to be running shock weapons like the Storm and Twister or are too lazy to ele swap

But matching elements is better

Alternatively

Electrical Burn is kinda crazy

When paired with the Storm

[livid ore]

WTD?

[limpid rivet]

Wires Don't Talk

her shock skill

[livid ore]

Ah

[limpid rivet]

if you have the Dragonkeep dlc and really want to focus shock then id recommend this right here

https://www.lootlemon.com/class-mod/necromancer-gaige-bl2

Chaotic for the +58.5% Fire Rate, Good for the +58.5% Reload Speed then the boosting of WTD +6

[livid ore]

This is what i have atm

i focused on red bc of Anarchy

[limpid rivet]

letting you have 11 WTD points

[livid ore]

but i wanna do shock still

[limpid rivet]

whats ur end goal build

[livid ore]

For OP10? idk ive never made it there before

im still trying to learn how to build

For Gaige, i know her Anarchy is basically required

i was thinking about getting a bee

(im also learning where to farm stuff)

[limpid rivet]

https://www.lootlemon.com/class/gaige#_550050050000_550003150550_415040151050

not really sure how effective this is- as i havent played gaige much

i think this would be somewhat optimal as deathtrap is honestly, hit or miss his ai either works or it doesnt

though feel free to ask around there are some diehard gaige fans somewhere in here 😂

[livid ore]

The AI has been working well for me

[limpid rivet]

if you plan to go to OP with DT good luck, he kinda gets nuked real fast 😅

from what ive seen atleast

[livid ore]

Well im still at TVM

my build will prob change by 3rd playthrough

[limpid rivet]

DT is good throughout, until OP

in my opinion

[livid ore]

Would a bee be good

[limpid rivet]

for DT or yourself?

[livid ore]

Myself

[limpid rivet]

bee can be good if not broken for just about any character 👍

[copper wasp]

Except Krieg

[livid ore]

Just need to speed through to the boss that drops it

[limpid rivet]

well yeah but like, then you step into the nova territories 😈

[tawdry shell]

gaige is far better with like high capacity shields though isn't she

[limpid rivet]

not sure, havent touched her much

bee if you want dps, then something like the antagonist or sham if you want survivability maybe irdk

[tawdry shell]

she has BSS so you usually wanna run turtles with her

[copper wasp]

Generally yes, though also with shields that benefit from being quickly refilled (read: nova shields)

[tawdry shell]

she has anarchy so the bee seems like a waste really

[limpid rivet]

being slow all playthrough sounds miserable 😅

[limpid rivet]

i was thinking the flame of firehawk couldve been good

on her but im not really sure

[copper wasp]

It's reasonably viable, I think?

[limpid rivet]

no idea

[copper wasp]

The issue is that it benefits from being down for a while without any recharging

[livid ore]

wym

[copper wasp]

And getting any kills with BSS also immediately stops novas until you empty it next

Not bad, but there's probably better options

[tawdry shell]

why go for damage when you already have damage

not gonna change much is my point

[trim hinge]

bee really doesnt scale that well with weapon damage buffs

[livid ore]

Then whats a good shield to go for? (im right before you rescue roland)

[copper wasp]

It can work as a shield for Deathtrap though, though it also has the caveat of needing to recharge all the way between novas (which probably isn't going to happen given how they go for melee a lot)

[trim hinge]

any good defensive shield

black hole is also a fun option

[copper wasp]

Any shield with decent enough stats

[livid ore]

Im still trying to learn good shields, good places to farm, ect

[copper wasp]

Are you in Normal mode?

[livid ore]

TVHM

[copper wasp]

Oh, OK

[livid ore]

wait

whatever the 2nd one is LOL

[copper wasp]

Yeah, TVHM

[livid ore]

Cool, second guessed myself

But yeah, im there

i know something about some farm with a snowman

[copper wasp]

Generally speaking, I wouldn't start doing any farming for specific gear until you hit playthrough 3

Mostly because a lot of places in the base game won't scale up to 50 until you complete the entire campaign

[livid ore]

i wouldn't say i'm focused on it. I'm more so trying to take notes and such so i know what im doing for Playthrough 3

[copper wasp]

That and from my experience, you tend to outlevel the stuff you find relatively fast

[livid ore]

So im not bumbling around struggling

[limpid rivet]

i really dont farm anything until im like low/high 60s

[red ember]

for context the other ones i get do like 70-80 per pellet

[shy jay]

IMO for where you’re at that’s a perfectly serviceable Maggie

[red ember]

im farming zaford for xp currently

so im just wondering why i havent gotten a better one

[shy jay]

Keep it, another will come around eventually

U don’t need perfect gear in a lot of cases, it’s just nice to have/look at

[midnight mesa]

People tend to misunderstood a lot that unless you are heavily optimizing your gear for OP lvls and even raid bosses.

It's not needed to have perfect parts on each gun, shield and more

Having good to at worst decent parts is good enough.

Only some parts can fuck up a weapon

[sharp lily]

The thing about UVHM (playthrough 3) is that everything scales to your level meaning any farm you've unlocked will be available to drop the item at your level so there is no "what farm is good for this part of the game" and it's more of "what useful item that I've already unlocked the farm for do I wanna go grab an on level version of" so the specific routing isn't really necessary in UVHM

[peak ether]

@late ice rate the save list (reply ping me because I won't be able to check right away)

[late ice]

You've got more characters than I do. I think I most have 2 full sets of all 4 plus a few more (I ported all of my saves over to Enhanced Edition a good while back

[peak ether]

That's honestly kinda shocking

I expected to have less than you

My older account only has 1 set of each extra so add 4 more to the ones shown here

[sharp lily]

You play enhanced? I'm sorry for your loss

[peak ether]

Frightening probably knows more about Bl1 than I do

I'd say he's allowed to play Enhanced

[sharp lily]

I know I was only joking anyway. You and Frightening are the bosses of BL1 for sure. Followed closely by Deli and Zeta in terms of knowledge...at least from my perspective.

[sullen girder]

Huh?

[eager laurel]

you are now a bl1 nerd

[sullen girder]

I ALREADY HAVE DBD AND BL2 NERDISM I DON'T NEED BL1 TOO

[sharp lily]

Haha idk just from my impression of you...you seem to be quite knowledgeable on BL1

[peak ether]

I honestly wouldn't consider Zeta as a Bl1 nerd specifically

[late ice]

I have a lot of time on my mains. I, a long time ago, modded their inventory to be huge because I hated leaving good guns on the ground.

[late ice]

eh, I prefer that it natively support widescreen and some other things are fixed. Not all of the changes are wins, but overall I don't mind them

[peak ether]

You've already told me that second fact

[late ice]

Yea probably

[peak ether]

We've talked before so yeah

[late ice]

So I would farm on those mains a lot, (I think my Brick has almost 1000 pieces of gear that meet my criteria for keep

Most of the others are close to that as well

[peak ether]

If I could save edit my inventory size I would

[late ice]

I should still be possible, not certain that EE has a save editor out there, but I know we had willowtree for OG BL1

[peak ether]

Willow Tree supports both

But I play on Xbox

[late ice]

ahh, consoles suck XD

[peak ether]

If I had a laptop or Pc I could save edit the OG 360 version

Which is what I prefer anyway

[late ice]

ahh yea

There is actually another way (tedious) to get more backpack space

[peak ether]

Which is?

[late ice]

you can abuse split-screen and have the other character be a throw-away and push them to the shock caverns and do the claptrap mission there, but then have them drop the SDU for your main to take

iirc, this technically also works with the skillpoint SDUs from DLC2 and 4

[peak ether]

You can't drop inv SDUs

[late ice]

I thought for sure you could

[peak ether]

Nope

[late ice]

I swear I remember doing it, maybe it was patched?

hmm, wonder if you can wager it on a duel?

or em I thinking of BL2 feature

[peak ether]

Wagering items in duels isn't a thing in Bl1

[late ice]

ahh

been too damn long since I played regularly XD

[peak ether]

Anywho I'm in the elevator to Craw

Pearl drop hopefully?

[late ice]

May RNGesus bless you

[peak ether]

[scenic briar]

If mashers didn't exist, that would go crazy

[peak ether]

The Equalizer Fairy came tonight

[sharp lily]

Haha is that stabilizer accessory?

[peak ether]

Yes

[sullen girder]

Wait does that mean you consider me one?

[peak ether]

No

[sullen girder]

Jerk

[wheat harbor]

i just do all the bl games

a lot of my bl1 info is more on the functionality than practical experience

which uh
actually goes for all the bl games

tend to know mroe about how it functions than the practical uses of stuff

[peak ether]

^

Zeta kinda digs up the code shit

And doesn't go much farther with it

[elder crystal]

@unborn goblet

[elder ridge]

from a pile on the ground? really???

[elder ridge]

why slag 🙁

[elder ridge]

Would these be considered as good enough to move on or would any of them greatly benefit from being improved? (assuming fire if any of them)

[sullen girder]

They're all dahl or bandit grip so. Yeah

Farming for the god roll sucks since its a 1/9100

[elder ridge]

is that including a sight or just prefix, grip, stock, element?

[sullen girder]

Grip, Prefix, Stock, Element

[elder ridge]

damn, well good job i'm not trying to farm for that

[sullen girder]

1/5 for Dahl Grip
1/5 for Dahl stock
1/14 for a specific element
1/26 for Flying

[late ice]

Shield capacity is quite low, Roland has strong synergy with high shield capacity

mostly because of Quick Charge

[peak ether]

That is 2 skills off what I run

[snow elm]

xd

[snow elm]

what shield should i go for?

[peak ether]

So actually pretty good

[late ice]

higher cap=better generally

don't worry too much about perfect, make incremental improvements

[peak ether]

I honestly prefer recharge leaning shields

[snow elm]

cuz current drops arent the best for me and idk who to farm

im so more used to bl2

[late ice]

this is highly suboptimal on 3/4 VHs (only Mordecai should seriously run these)

Brick, Lilith, and Roland all have powerful defensive shield skills that scale with capacity

most of them also tend to take steady damage with their most typical fighting styles, which invalids recharge performance to a degree (shield recharge delays are long in BL1 and like subsequent games, the duration is reset when damage is taken)

low recharge delay can be good when sniping/fighting at long range, but it's not like high cap is bad in those situations either (especially for Lilith and Roland with their % regen on kill skills)

[snow elm]

i normally get sniped randomly and the shock alone 1 shots my shield xd

[late ice]

shock is very effective against shields

[snow elm]

i spam my transfusion nades a lot

[late ice]

in general it is the most dangerous element in enemy hands too

[snow elm]

ye

[late ice]

the more you're killing the easier shrugging off damage and not dying will be with Quick Charge and Stat in your build

[snow elm]

yeah thats my current strat and my shotgun is prb my strongest weapon rn

but its not rlly enough

[late ice]

eh, that's not a very good shotgun

I suspect your hellfire with the long barrel is way better tbh

(I saw that in your inventory)

[snow elm]

rlly?

i normally just check stats and go off that

never rlly got into parts

[late ice]

Roland has very good access to fire rate and mag size buffs, but little in the way of damage increases, or reload speed increases, so he favors weapons that can put a lot of metal in the air and don't need to reload often

[peak ether]

Alternatively Scattershot is his highest in tree dmg boost

[late ice]

knowing parts is immensely valuable for knowing if a good is actually a good example of that weapon type or not

[late ice]

Impact can arguably be worth more because it's bullet damage instead of weapon damage

profs can give up to 48% weapon damage passively

[snow elm]

do u think i should go into base game and check different vencding machines and farm bosses?

[late ice]

Tartarus station is mostly easy (claptraps are easy to kill)

and has plenty of chests to loot

[snow elm]

only thing with vending machines is that they cost a lot for subpar

i heard the bossses are extremely hard in that dlc

[late ice]

and once finished, you have the gift shop (you are on Enhanced edition, right?)

[snow elm]

ye

[late ice]

a couple of them are challenging

(ned trap and especially MINAC)

[snow elm]

i just feel im not strong enough for it with my current guns

[late ice]

but those are far enough in, you should have some decent gear by then if you know what to look for

[snow elm]

ok ill see if i can progress that dlc

[late ice]

combat outside of those boss fights in claptrap DLC is actually pretty easy for the most part

[snow elm]

thats a relief to hear

[late ice]

it's worth doing some learning on gun parts too so you can identify what's good

Just knowing how to identify good barrels and the body from the letters is worth a lot

[snow elm]

alr tysm man u have been very helpful 😄

[peak ether]

Fierce Chimera started a weapon parts guide if you need one

[snow elm]

i might check some out on yt rq

[late ice]

wiki has the charts of the parts as well (nice for learning how to identify the parts)

[snow elm]

thx im on it rn

[quiet sapphire]

Fyi, you can press Y on that screen to just. Display all the trees at once

[thorny jasper]

Don't tell me how to live my life

Just kidding, thanks for the tip!

[vagrant imp]

poor guy

[worn spoke]

https://borderlands.fandom.com/wiki/Kill_Yourself this was the mission i was thinking might not show up in bl4 lol

[worn spoke]

someone was here..... touches the ground

[elder crystal]

Is BL2 VR worth it

Got another quest 2 again

[lean oyster]

yes

[trim hinge]

DT my fucin goat

[vagrant imp]

Is this considered rare? And what is the thing that make it really good (its not my screen shot)

[sullen girder]

1/30 for any Sham from Bunker

Sham is just whatever. Overhyped

[vagrant imp]

so its about getting it not about being so useful and op

[sullen girder]

Its useful for refilling rocket ammo.

But any Absorb shield can

[cunning sable]

For instance

The Sponge

[tawdry shell]

the spon

[sullen girder]

Yeah but thats actually the one good absorb shield

[scenic briar]

I genuinely don't think I've ever used the sponge, I know its deal, but why is it that much better? Just the increased absorb on a shield with real capacity?

[sullen girder]

54% Absorb chance
Better capacity
And a Dot immunity

[peak ether]

^

[sullen girder]

Sham not being able to spawn with Mali cap really hinders it

[peak ether]

Basically can survive an unabsorbed hit

[scenic briar]

Always has a dot immunity, or just more likely to find one since you can easily farm the vendor?

[sullen girder]

Can spawn with Mali cap

[peak ether]

Sham can't have one period

Sponge can

[scenic briar]

Oh yeah I knew that, I meant compared to regular purples

[sullen girder]

More likely since its a vendor farm

[scenic briar]

Neat! It kinda sucks that the sham generally sucks (or is at least outclassed) in all three games it's in

But it's nice to hear sponge is good

[sullen girder]

I wouldn't say Sponge is that good.

Its just. A gold trash bag basically

Since Absorb shields just kinda suck

[scenic briar]

I honestly think sham is shittiest in WL, but it's not very helpful in tps either

[near patrol]

TPS its kinda hard to beat shield of age for pure defense

But bl2 also has antagonist and blockade and they are consistent

[sullen girder]

Evolution too

[scenic briar]

I was thinking sham was ass in tps since the bulwark exists

[near patrol]

yeah bulwark is very nice

i mostly just use for the damage boost, laser absorb is really nice for enemies with railgun

[scenic briar]

99% of the guys you find have lasers anyway, and it has two bonus effects (laser resist AND damage)

[sullen girder]

@loud sentinel

Heres Deputy Sal vs Dragons. I just used Y to swap between Ladyfist and Grog since slot 4 was empty

[shadow coral]

apparently these element artifacts can reach level 6. is that true?

[peak ether]

Yes

[shadow coral]

ive been playing bl1 for 10 years and i thought 2 or 3 was the highest

[peak ether]

How!?

[shadow coral]

is there a specific way to get more incendiary artifacts?

[sullen girder]

No, just gotta get lucky

Afaik anyway

[peak ether]

The named Wereskags always drop artifacts

It's where I farm them

[shadow coral]

I thought they were just guaranteed from certain quests or bosses

[peak ether]

Yeah

Elemental badasses can also drop them

[shadow coral]

Is rakk hive good?

[sullen girder]

No a level 15 badass can only drop like. Level 1 of the artifacts

So enemy level does affect those

[peak ether]

A bit slow to farm them

Scar is a decent spot too

[scenic briar]

I usually get a few of them during the guardian xp farm

[shadow coral]

Apparently the Violence legendary revolver is considered midtier. Its been really good to me so i wonder how good revolvers can get

Mine is lvl 21 but its been mowing down lvl 33 zombies. I tried using a bunch of keys to get another but no luck.

[tawdry shell]

revolvers are overall the strongest weapon type in bl1 imo

violence is pretty solid on brick i think? the gearbox legendarys are usually just basic weapons with like a good stat boost i think

[shadow coral]

I wish there was something like the violence but with 4-6 rounds per cylinder

[tawdry shell]

besides silent night and sucker punch

[tawdry shell]

revolvers you typically want only 2 shots

usually 2 rounds means it’s mag 5

so it gets all those boosts

[shadow coral]

Can the element multiplier go past x4?

What's the highest?

[tawdry shell]

4 is highest

[shadow coral]

I'm guessing there's no specific way to farm revolvers
