Bump, let's get some Broderlands General going.

I reached 69 on my Hunter, gonna do some Farmory runs and then continue doing Moxxi's to get a few more skill points to finish my build off with.

>>109643001
>make BL2 better.

No, that implies that Fetchquestlands 1 was any good at all. Being better than a pile of shit isn't all that tough. With any luck they're just trying to make it decent.

>>109644229

Thanks for the bump I guess.

>>109644229
>hate a game that sold millions
>it's shit

There really was a patch?

Really?

For just PC?

>>109644572
Sales don't make a game.

inb4 hipster: I guess you are willing to admit then that the best selling game of all time is the BEST game then admit that the best game is angry birds

>>109644229

Hey, you tried

I'm glad they're finally learning though, ask on a forum, you get whining and horrid "OMG SO MUCH BETTER IF."

If you collect the data directly, you get the people voting with their bullets so that, for instance, you can realize that increasing shotgun spread makes for a shitty ability without spending 5~ months waiting for "significant feedback"

>>109644572
I bet you must have loved modern warfare 2

>>109644576

I think it was for all platforms. I remember reading a week or so ago that the patch was coming, and then when I started the game via Steam earlier a EULA thing came up asking if I agreed to it sending anonymous usage statistics to the developers.

Not sure if the patch was for anything else other than that. Hopefully they haven't randomly fixed Farmory or something, lol.

Nobody wants to actually play Borderlands.

And you know the most visited areas are going to be Fyrestone and Rust Commons/New Haven.

>>109644732

People vote with their wallets

MW2 is considered good to millions of people.

It's fair to call it poor objectively, but it got those sales for being enjoyable to its audience

>What it does is send Gearbox statistics about which weapons are most used

>modded weapons
>modded weapons everywhere

>>109644572

>"High sales means the game is good."

You're the worst kind of retarded consumer.

Just started doing the Claptrap Rebellion DLC.

What the FUCK is with these fetch quests for the Claptrap parts? Jesus I though getting 100 of them was tedious but then she tells me to go out and get 150?!?

I'm done playing for tonight, that really rustled my jimmies.

I really hope they remake and improve Moxxi's Underdome. I like arena combat, but some of the modifiers make it stupid-hard.

>Modifier that makes weapons stronger with less accuracy
>Throw grenade at enemies

>selling millions is the benchmark of being a great game

Enjoy your CoD. Farmville has a lot of players as well, have fun.

>>109645088

I haven't done that DLC yet. Probably will at some point, but for now doing Farmory runs and getting ready to take Crawmerax on is my priority.

>>109645503
You can claim it has poor design, poor controls, poor graphics... poor anything. These can be objectively measured in things such as resolution, texture filtering methods, ETC.

From the eyes of it's audience however, it can be seen as anywhere from good to a miraculous gift from the cosmos.

>>109645662

>Skewed results

"They loved the fuck out of the Mongol series. We gotta make some other weapons like that."

>>109645295

Craw was fun when you were a lower level than him. Now he can be solo'd by any class, including Brick.

I remember our first successful kill. A guy got stuck up on top of a rock when Craw knocked him up there, so he acted as the liver, the guy who stays alive so we can die/respawn without it resetting. The cheers could be heard down the street

>>109645731

I have one in each of the types, what else could they do with it I wonder...?

>>109645784
Wait, you can outlevel craw now? When did this happen?

>>109644856
People are misled into thinking it is better than it actually due to the millions of dollars publishers pump into marketing. Sales are not a indication of quality, i'm afraid.

Steam doesn't say I got a patch and there's nothing about it in the News

>>109645784
>>109645869

No, you're always lower level. I think he is always 4 levels higher than you, even when you're 69. The minions are each 1-3 levels higher too.

>>109645869

Once Claptrap was released. He's only 68, IIRC. It's been a while since I've played.

>>109645995

Are you sure? I don't remember seeing him above my level...

Maybe I'm talking out my ass, it's been known to happen. If I'm wrong, then apologies. But I could have sworn...

>>109645151

Underdome would be much more tolerable if the weapons you got from it were on par with, say, Craw drops.

Finding weapons below purple tier should be a fucking rarity.

The Borderlands wiki says that the DLC was supposed to scale. My bro and I started Claptrap Revolution at level 19 and all the goddam quests are level 15-17 so all the exp is trivial. Did the wiki lie to me or what? Because that's pretty shitty

>>109645869

Nah, Craw scales to be 5 levels higher than you always.

>>109646067

Wiki says

>Crawmerax will scale to 4 levels above the host, but has a minimum of 64 and a maximum of 72.

I haven't checked him out since I was 50 or so, so I can't confirm that though. Might go to him on my way to next Farmory.

>>109646067
Even when you reach max level 69, i think Craw is either 70 - 72.

this game runs like shit on my 955 be

>>109646130

I think DLC only scales if you're on playthrough 2.5, so if you haven't beaten the second playthrough's regular storymode, it won't scale.

>>109646181
>>109646144
>>109646179


Well then I'm talking out my ass. Doesn't mean that the extra levels don't make it a TON easier, mind you. I can do craw with my eyes closed now, but man, that first four man run was so brutal. We spent like five hours on it.

>>109646130

Level scaling in the DLC only activates after you enter the Vault. In PT2 anyway, I'm not entirely sure if the DLCs level scale in PT1.

>>109645151

>get Close Combat modifier
>wielding a Double Anarchy
>my face

>>109646196

AMD cpus and gpus have always had problems with this game. My 6970 barely keeps it at 60fps at max detail which is pretty retarded

>>109646231
>>109646257
Well fuck me. Is there any DLC around level 20 then?

I need to try and solo Craw as Brick some time.

I want to get a good Ogre class mod with ammo regen, and from there, it's just bunnyhopping around him with a Bulldog, and some guns to take care of his minions.

>>109646067
If you're level 69, Craw is level 72.

>>109646422

Brick is a tough one to solo with, good luck.

>>109646358

I believe General Knoxx starts at lvl 32 or so in PT1. And lvl 52 in PT2.

Moxxi's Underdome always level scales no matter what.

Not sure what level Zombie Island normally starts at. Maybe give that one a try?

i dont even bother with craw anymore. most of his loot is garbage and he hardly ever drops pearls. farmory usually has better shit and you find pearls alot more

>>109646481

I can glitch Craw with Brick (partly thanks to my Shock Nidhogg) but I want to do it the cool way.

>>109646549

Fucking this.

>Solo Craw as Mordecai

>he drops a bunch of shitty Equalizers and Volcanos

I mean, I've gotten some great stuff from Craw, don't get me wrong, but it was VERY rare.

>>109646524
I'll try that. I asked my friend if he wanted zombies, claptraps, arena shit, or soldiers (which I assume is what the Armory has), and he chose claptraps.

>>109646560
>but I want to do it the cool way.

Same here, with my Hunter. Got a nice loadout of elemental revolvers to take care of the minions, just need a better one to use on Craw. Pic related is the current one I have.

>>109645151
>Sniper Rifle Challenge
>Close Combat
>Headshots only

I have the 360 version and I'm a terrible shot. I normally just "W+M1" with a shotgun aimed loosely at an enemy's weak point

>>109646633
>>109646549

It was always for the fight, not the loot. The loot paled in comparison to the first few times that insane fight broke out. Abilities everywhere, elevator constantly going, screams of HELP ME I'M DOWN through the mic...

Now it's all a science. Move here, shoot here, get loot, repeat. So much less fun.

>>109646715

Actually, you might want to look into killing Queen Tarentella. She drops the Patton if you've already turned in the quest, and in playthrough 2.5 with the new patch, you can get it level scaled to 69. The best part though is that it can sometimes come equipped with the Masher barrel, but keeping the damage boost and stuff that Patton has.

>>109646731

>all kinds of stuff that restricts what weapons I should use

>Still use them

>still kill face

>Bloodwing murders half of what spawns anyway

feels good man

>>109646913

Ah yeah, thanks man. I forgot about the Patton. Is it a guaranteed drop each kill?

I'm on my way now to get a level-scaled Madjack, for shits and giggles.

Does the patch make the game less boring, repetitive and shit?

I wonder, is there any way to "reset" DLC content? I heard that the armory only scales up to its max after you complete the Armory Assault quest. But I never did, since I wanted to farm the chests. But due to... *shenanigans*, I also have the two marcus loot quests in my log (likely picked up from some guys in online), and I'm pretty sure that I'd end up completing them all at once, locking myself out.

So I guess the short of it is, is there any way to get my scaled chests short of starting a brand new character?

>>109647037

I think it's only a chance, but a fairly good chance.

The problem is more getting the masher barrel. Getting a specific layout of a weapon is grueling. I still need to get a decent Ajax Ogre.

>>109647188
Stop being mad. You dont have to be in this thread.

>>109647246

No, but I don't think you'd end up completing those other Marcus loot quests. If you end up doing so, you can probably just close the game without saving.

>>109647252

Ok, I'll go do a few runs now. And yeah, so far I have had bad luck getting Legendary mashers. Someone posted a pic of a 7x400 masher Equalizer yesterday, that sorta weapon would be great to have.

>>109647555
HNNNNNGGG

I fucking LOVE the Madjack, but the projectile pattern always pissed me off with the ziggin and the zaggan.

In all honesty, i just like it for the chameleon colour.

>>109647555

I actually have a good Masher Equalizer. It's fucking Amazing. I've honestly done well with getting good legendaries, but getting good versions of Unique weapons (i.e. Madjack, Patton, etc.) has been pretty hard.

>>109647733

I just tested it out and it fires insanely fast. And 3.1 is one of the LOWER fire rates for Madjack. Max is 4.4 apparently. But yeah it's pretty hard to actually hit stuff with it, lol.

>>109647743

Overall the Purples I've found have been better than the Oranges, only exception at the moment would be my Defiler.

Although, I have a Scavenger mod that has +find rare item, and from what I've been reading it sounds like that slightly increases the quality of the items you find. So I'll equip that when I'm running Queen Tarentella and hope for the best.

Wasn't this patch supposed to add Steamworks?

I heard something about them replacing GameSpy. How'd that go?

Anybody have a good Unforgiven with Masher parts? I've been using my 480x7 Masher forever.

>>109648115
Oh man, if they were to replace gamespy, it would enhance the multiplayer experience tenfold.

>>109647343

Ah, just tried it now, ended up completing one of the marcus quests instead (assault didn't even update for completion). I guess I'm pretty screwed.

>>109648115

Clicking Online on the main menu brings up GameSpy login stuff still. And I'm not sure how Steamworks works, so I can't check that sorry.

>>109648268
It's the reason it's impossible to bro-op on the PC. Someone always has a shit connection, and ends up leaving.

>>109648096

Yeah scavenger is a good piece to have. Even if you just switch it on for a killshot.

>>109648198
There can't be an Unforgiven Masher. the Masher's spread effect and the Unforgiven's legendary status both come from the barrel, so it's one or the other.

>>109648355
that's... weird. Sounds like you're screwed though, yeah. Good chance to try out another class..

On a playthrough 1 when is most appropriate to do the secret armory of general knoxx and claptrap's robot revolution?
Just before the final boss?

>>109648383
I thought Masher was an effect from the accessory, not the barrel. It's why you can't have elemental Mashers.

>>109648383
wrong actually.

the mashers spread comes from the accessory

>>109648527

Maybe take a look at this: http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=112350

It recommends skipping DLC on PT1, and then going back to it later. Because of how the weird level scaling works in the game.

>Just beat Borderlands, Zombie Island of Dr. Ned. for the first time today.

This shit is fun.

Brick's OP.

>>109648527
I think killing the last boss is required to increase the DLC to match your current level. I might be wrong.

>>109648551
>elemental Mashers.

If these arent in Borderlands 2 then im going to be very unhappy.

>>109648551

Gah, you're right, I'm thinking there can't be Masher Defilers.

Most used weapons
>hell fire smg
>caustic revolver

Elemental mashers would be OP as fuck, since elemental effects proc on every revolver shot.

>>109648607

Zombie Island is fantastic. So much funny shit.

>>109648642
Imagine a Maliwan masher, where each pellet of the masher is a different element. Hnnnnngggg

>>109648725

>Masher Chimera

all my dosh.

>>109644822
sanctuary actually, for proficiency grinding.

>>109648773
too bad Atlas already has a Chimera

whats a more powerful hybrid of legend than a Chimera?

>>109648719

I dunno, I think Maliwan Crux gets more use than Defiler, because each pellet causes a proc.

>>109648847
I meant if the Chimera could spawn as a Masher

So nobody has an Unforgiven Masher? Too bad. I've killed Crawmerax so many times and rarely get Unforgiven anything. Equalizers on the other hand... Them, Pestilent Defilers, and Volcanoes ALWAYS drops. Next most common drops are probably the shotguns Friendly Fire and the Crux's. I have gone through 20+ Crawmerax kills without finding a single thing worth picking up.

Just bought the game and all the dlc. Having a blast. Started playing brick with a friend (Mordekai or however you spell it) and then after we got to lvl 13 or so we wanted to see what the other classes are like. HOLYFUCKINGDOGBALLFUCKERS is the fucking soldier awesome. My friend grabbed the siren and I'm all ERECTAN A TURRET THAT GIVES YOU AMMO BACK wow is he fucking fun.

Brick's fisting is pretty sweet but there is just something about the turret that just feels stronger. On top of that I couldn't find ANY good guns for brick. I'm sure that didn't help.

Siren looks really fucking strong. Phasing in and out doing fucking damage each way and dazing motherfuckers.

Just got a third friend to buy it and found some other guys who have it. Never playing solo, just bro-op and it's fun as fuck. Only a few hours spent in it and highest character is 15 brick I think.

Love the game so far. Love the art style. Love he bosses, the comedy, all the subtle puns.

Any tips for a n00b though? Anything i should keep in mind or anything? Also if anyone has time, how do the characters play later? Since each character can level up in any weapon is it really important if I want to weild X weapon mainly to be teh character that can power that weapon up in the skills??

>>109649064
Just looking at the Gearbox forums, it seems NOBODY has a really good Unforgiven Masher.

I'd suggest Farmory if you want a better chance of a good Unforgiven.

>>109649064
>>109649147
Actually, if you want Jakobs weapons more often, belive it or not legendary Jakobs are supposed to drop more often than other legendary weapons in Zombie Island.

This is what people believe anyway. I dont know if its simply due to the fact that the place is owned by the Jakobs Corp and people instantly throught this.

>>109648096

Fuck, I thought Tarentella was one of the ones in East Commons when you collect the plant samples. That would have been fast to run. Trash Coast on the other hand...

>>109649101
Continued

It seems that the best tree for each character when you are low level is whichever tree powers up your ability the most. Is this inaccurate? do the dynamics change when you have 4 people instead of 2? Also how do the enemies scale? If yhou have a full party is there more enemies or what?

>>109649101
With Brick, just use Sledge's shotgun and you'll be fine.

>>109649101

most characters play similar at the end as how they did when they started.

But some particular notes about Brick:

1) Come around the end of the first playthrough, his Berserk skill isn't that great, and you're better off investing in other trees

2) Rocket Launchers aren't SUPER great in Borderlands, but it's still nice to have them. Brick will probably do better with good explosive elemental shotguns (not those rocket launcher shotguns, those are worse than regular launchers), machine guns, and even SMGs.

You're right that any character can use any weapon, but some characters just do really well with their suggested weapons.

>modded shield
>class mod gives ammo regen
>smg gives ammo regen

welp. now what?

>>109649341

>sledge's shotgun

ew. no. Maybe if you said Boomstick, I MIGHT be inclined to agree, but no, Sledge's shotgun is dicks.

>>109649336
>It seems that the best tree for each character when you are low level is whichever tree powers up your ability the most.

Not always. I'm playing Pistol Mordecai at the moment, and the first thing I did was get the skills that boost pistol damage. Then I got the ones to enhance Bloodwing.

Is it possible to play borderlands in window mode?

>>109649418
For Brick maybe.
As lillith/Roland it kicks ass.

>>109649147
I got fucked over with the Armory, though. Joined a game where the host had all the looting quests open at once and I gained them. I completed the DLC on my own and realized that completing final mission caused both the returning side missions to complete along with the final mission.

>>109649401
>modded shield

Leave you cancerous bastard.

Am I the only one who like playing solo?

I also enjoy running instead of using the vehicles.

I'm have level 19 soldier what DLC( I have all of them) isn't good enough for me. Just tried playing one of them, enemy levels are t highs.

>>109649336

Yeah, action skills are pretty ridiculous in Borderlands. Brick's is pretty strong, but loses its power fairly early. And Roland's turret is kinda easy to ignore. But Phasewalk and Bloodwing are fucking ridiculous damage and utility.

As for larger parties, they just make stronger enemies.

>>109649509

make a new character.

>>109648773
Try a Masher Aries.

>>109649521

Bought it in Steam sale, have 135 hours clocked in solo so far. Loving it.

>>109649510
i started a new character because of this. i keep the other one because i kill craw over and over online so people can steal the loot.

just sayin

>>109649562
those dont exist though

>>109649523
he has that "tank" tree. Is that shit worth going into in a full group? Will teh damage mitigation pay off for not doing as much damage? Is there a reliable way to keep the enemies attacking you?

>>109649521
God what the fuck did I write?

I have a level 19 soldier. Which of the DLCS(I have all of them) can I try out. I tried playing one of them but my character it too underleveled.

>>109649653
>Not doing much damage
>Tank tree
Its his highest damage tree if you use it right.
That damage bonus on shield break is fantastic.
Also the best way to get them to shoot you is to be close to them and shoot them.

>>109649677

Try all of them to see which one is close enough to your level.

>>109649702
as you can obviously see I dont know shit about this game. Could you enlighten me then, if the tank tree provides the most damage, why would you go other trees? Are they better support? or what?

>>109649702

I disagree.

Lilith with the SMG tree and a good anarchy has the most damage potential
Her SMG tree and elemental tree with a good hellfire would be even better.

>>109649653

Honestly, Combining Tank and Blaster trees mean you can usually just run up to somebody and pump them full of lead and usually come out on top. There's no reliable way to keep enemies attacking you, but by virtue of simply being closer to them, they'll prioritize you.

>>109649653
Yeah, you get close to the enemy or you get where the enemy can see you.

The survivability increase helps, as does being able to go berserk to lessen damage and restore health but it definitely feels more and more gimmicky the more I played with my friend. Fucking Mordecai, you're too good.

>>109649782

he saidd it's HIS highest damage tree.

Nobody's talking about broken-ass Lilith or broken-ass SMGs.

>>109649782
I think he was just talking about brick's trees

>People maxxing out characters and going on item runs

Really?

I mean, I suppose the game was alright for the first playthrough or two (and dat zombie island) when playing with friends but

But item farming? Really?

>>109649782
he said "His highest damage tree." AKA, Brick's. Not Lillith's.

>>109649763
Generally speaking, most classes can combine trees. Not all the skills in a particular tree are useful, and you have more than enough skill points anyway.

Hell, my Mordecai build lets me max out the good stuff in the Sniper and Hunter trees, with plenty of points left for Gunslinger skills

>>109649782
I wonder about that. My Mordecai has his 480x7 Masher, with good accuracy, the skills that ignore shields, gives a good chance of causing 480x14, increase pistol damage, increase critical hit damage, and a class mod that increases damage 55% all for a single shot (and I have pretty good firing rate) may be able to out-damage her. I just want an Unforgiven to give an extra 100% damage for a critical.

>>109650184

Lilith is confirmed best DPS, in general.

Personally though, I think if you're a good shot with a Gunslinger you might be able to outdamage her in most cases. Dem massive revolver crits.

>>109650184

You're not outdamaging Lilith except with a better Lilith. Sorry bro.

I'd kill for a Masher Unforgiven, too.

Instead I have a unforgiven with 1400 damage, a scope, AND a blade attachment. It's also got the gold and wood material, so it's the most ridiculous fucking gun ever.

Just for fun I want a Truxican Wrestler build Mordecai. Did this patch fix the Reaper's melee multiplier?

>>109650311
Well my Masher also has the gold barrel, reddish wood and all that. I don't really know what that means though...

>>109649782
I meant most damage of Brick, not overall.
>>109649763
Punching is stronger early on, Blaster has tons of good shit later.
Plus they offer different playstyles and you CAN put points in more than one tree.

>>109650487

That's just the material, which determines stats. It causes "XX" to appear in the weapon's name, and it means increased damage and knockback.

>>109650501

Oh, just for the sake of knowlege: Respeccing is ridiculously cheap, even moreso considering how much of a non-issue money becomes.

2 out of the 3 Undertakers were complete shit dropped from Badass Rocketeers.

>>109650611
So they don't provide any hidden stats to the 480x7? Oh well. At least they make my gun look cool.

>>109651012

>Rocket Launchers
>Poor

I don't really see them as poor so much as a "Shoot one and bridge the gap with a shotgun/machinegun" weapon.

I use them for taking down shields or element-ing a group.

>>109651081

No, but they do increase damage and stuff, so without that material, you'd probably be looking more at a 300 something x 7.

>>109644689
For shame.

The best selling game ever is Tetris

On topic:

I really hope they mix up the new Siren char, to make her feel different from Lilith.

>>109651225

Well they said they're not giving this new Siren Phasewalk, so that's a start.

It seems like they're genuinely trying to balance the classes this time around.

Salvador is gonna be like Brick, except his action skill is gonna be usable in end-game, and Maya is gonna be like Lilith, but without being ridiculously broken.

>>109651363
>>109651225
Hoping for something that phase blasts everyone around you, except teammates.
Or something that removes gravity in a small area around you so that enemies would go floating upwards.
Shit would be pretty overpowered, but if they do it the same as Jack and Daxter 3, it will be goddamn glorious.

got 7 pearls.

guardian destroyer, unforgiven cyclops, fearsome bessie, skullsmasher surkov, ogre cyclops, invader invader and anarchy mega cannon.

all good, even the shit tier eridian mega cannon that 1 hits everything

>>109651012
Pistols? Good or God tier I presume?

>>109651514

Bessie is the only one of those that isn't a fucking hack, and judging from you having so many, is probably also hacked.

>>109651169
Wait, I just thought of something. Do parts alter the crosshairs? I think I've seen it on different weapons (but is most apparent on sniper rifles) that even if they have the same accuracy stat, the crosshairs you have when not using sights can be larger or smaller. My Defiler has 96.7 Accuracy, I think, but the crosshairs are so close together that it has near perfect center shots at great distances even when not zoomed. My Defiler has a uniform lighter blue colored parts if that is supposed to be good.

>>109651659

I think they're the pre-patch pearlescents. The ones before pearlescents were an official thing.

>>109651701
nah, crawmerax drops mainly, though im pretty sure the invader invaders hacked, fast shooting, 5 round burst scoped. didnt remember getting it either, now that i think of it

>>109651709

accuracy alters the crosshairs as well as the scope.

>>109651818
>fast shooting, 5 round burst scoped.

Nah, all Invaders do that. The name is weird though.

Invader Invader

>>109651729
Elemental repeater, so much fun.
I like them as fourth weapon to my: revolver, sniper rifle and SMG.

>>109651825
weapons with the shittiest crosshairs have the best accuracy.. for me anyway

>>109651794

no, they're hacked.

They have double legendary names.

>>109651729
I believe you mean:

>Elder god tier
Masher revolvers

>God tier
Normal revolvers

>Poor tier (+1/2 if you're speed-specced Mordecai though)
Machine Pistols

>At least we're not Eridian weapons tier
Repeaters

>>109651794
those are straight up modded weapons

>implying DPS and brokenness doesn't determine what people use as much as what they like.
I liked the idea of using rockets and the type of rockets in borderlands, but given their absolutely shittastic AOE they were mostly fucking useless. Then there's changeups for various areas to deal with certain enemies and ROF...
The game affects what people choose as much as people themselves affect what they choose.

>>109652000
yeah they probably were, played alot online on that file, and shared it with siblings too.

i just wanted to be popular..

>>109652084

Good corrections, thanks. Mashers will always be the best.

>>109651659
Machine pistols can be good, but repeaters are usually lackluster unless its like the pearlescent or firehawk. Even machine pistols are pretty "meh" though, in my opinion. I have a Machine Pistol that does 404 damage with a firing rate of like 16 on my Mordecai, but I never use it. Compared to my Masher revolver, or other revolvers, it just doesn't feel good to me. I guess it just isn't my style. It definitely does good damage (it unloads all 30 rounds in about a second with a good gunslinger mod) with its 404 damage, but the recoil makes it impossible for them all to be crits, though recoil actually isn't too bad. I guess I just like being able to get that perfect shot with my revolver.

>>109652134
though the bessie and mega cannon ARENT hacks, i got those myself

>>109652175
at level 20 i had one that did 50 some damage x2 with 85 accuracy. used it until like level 40, never found one better

>>109652175

I've got a Thanatos pistol with like 16 fire rate, 69 magazine, and 370 something damage.

Thing's practically an assault rifle.

>>109652175
Yeah I have to admit they're pretty shit, especially later on.
But I love the feel of one of those things.
And I use the elemental ones to quickly get some elemental effect on groups of enemies.

>>109651012
You have not experienced the simple joys of running a 5 shot Spread Launcher as Brick with a +4 Endowed Bombardier mod

>>109652342
Oh, nice. Now I can look forward to be useless again because two of my bros are playing Lilith. Awesome.

>>109652522
Whats good damage for a rocket launcher late game? I decided to just pick up a rocket launcher one time while farming Crawmerax, in case I ever decided to make a Brick character. It's an orange rocket launcher, but I don't remember it's name. the description in red either said something about a "horde", or something about "rising (or falling...)". And it does 3400+ damage for a single rocket if I remember correctly.

>>109652767

Spec to Pistol Mordecai. Use Revolvers. At some point max Swift Strike, Aerial Impact and Bird of Prey.

>Your face when.

>>109650311
Assuming perfect gear a Brick with an Atlas Orge and a Blaster Master mod could out DPS Lilith.

But when I say perfect gear I'm saying like shit that can theoretically drop but if you see this in game with these stats it's probably hacked kind of stuff.

>>109652522
Unfortunately, neither have you. Lol, fucking rockets don't even work right. You have no idea how bad ass it could be. But nope, rockets are pretty much shit tier.

>>109652854
I think that's a Mongol, shoots 3 rockets at once (One rocket comes out which splits into 3 rockets and those 3 rockets split and so on...)

The 3 rockets a shot is a killer but Brick can make it work, what with his bonuses to launcher clip size and reloads speeds and all

>>109652981


Uhh do you play on Xbox or something? There was a BL patch a long time ago that made launchers work better but I don't know if it ever hit consoles.

skullmasher + defiler

no other weapons needed

Pic related, what things usually look like 2 seconds after we meet more enemies

I just played through the game Co-Op with a Soldier, my friend was a hunter. Prior to this I had only played solo as a Siren, now I understand why people claim she is so overpowered. There were a great many parts that I just walked through as her and I was downed 3-4 times as a Soldier.

>>109653400
turrets fuck up higher level players. My friend was a good few levels above me, like six or eight or something. To the point where shooting him with my machinegun was useless.
I dropped a mine and ran around on his ass so he could hit me and my turret ripped him apart. Hilarious shit.

>>109653400
Would you say it's better to build a character like that than focus on weapon damage/magazine size/turret increases?

>>109653562

You definitely want to get Turret cooldown down.

>>109653496

HNNNNNNNNNNNNNG this is more like it.

>>109654962
Lol, 13K/s

>>109654962
Haha. The stats are almost exactly the same as mine, except mine has 96.7 acc, very high elemental effect chance, and no black parts and 1267 damage.

>http://www.ehow.com/how_10002413_pearlescent-borderlands.html
>Defeat Cromax (also called Crawmerax), a dragon-like boss

>>109655208
A critical hit with that would probably kill anything weak to corrosive in one hit. And if not, the corrosive damage will quickly whittle away the remaining health.

>>109655222

Nice. I've found at least a dozen Defilers, but this one is the best so far. I mainly use them for sniping, lol.

I guess I'll just have to trudge through this shit solo. Almost finished my second play through with Mordecai, but just couldn't bring myself to finish it. Replaying through with Brick, love punching shit to death.

I could possibly play with you, but I'm in America, and I don't play at 2:45am.

>>109655851
Believe it or not I'm American also. Just got off work, which is why I'm up so late.

>>109656005
Do you live in Hawaii, or are you just working into the graveyard shift?

>>109656103
Sorry. Getting off work also implied that it was a couple of hours ago, since it's so late. I'm west coast.

>>109656310

PSN is Whatsworkethic if you ever feel like playing, though I can't say when I'll be on. I'm currently trying to find a job.

>>109654962

Holy shit.

>Mfw I found a max stats thantos

What weapons do you guys have hotkeyed? A Masher [480x7], Defiler [1267], Firehawk [304], Chimera [1232], and Gunslinger mod. Or Penetrator [890], Volcano [1300+], Orion [1100], Skullmasher [380x6], Sniper mod. Maybe Gunfighter or Scavenger mods depending on the situation

Will they bring back the other 4 characters or will they introduce just the 4 new ones?

So, anyone on PC feel like playing?

>>109658492

The original 4 will be npcs.

>>109658619

A shame its not mat 3...

I don't even use shotguns.

inb4 all weapons in BL2 are variations of the Pestilent Defiler
>give sick

So is that all the patch does? No fixes or improvements?

>that feel when you game such an awesome gun, you use it for 15 plus levels
>that feel when it finally becomes obsolete.

>Do 5 craw runs in a row
>All of the oranges are Volcanos, Defilers, Equalizers and Firehawks

I am not falling for this hurr durr gazillions of weapons bullshit again. There were like 20 weapons in total in the first one. Having slightly different stats and colors doesnt make it a completely new weapon gearbox.

God i hope they add more skills. Having only 1 in the first one was extremely disappointing and boring.

>>109658831

Nah.

50% hellfires
20% defilers
10% penetrators
20% everything else.

>>109658893
My old level 25 Hellfire. I used that thing til I was level 50.

My poor baby,

Guys I tried everything. I reinstalled, verified, decompiled, REcompiled, sacrificed a goat...

I just can't get Borderlands to not crash at every random interval. The game mind you, never had a problem prior to upgrading to Windows 7. Anyone have any idea what could have gone wrong?

I really wanna play while the game is getting a ton of interest again.

>>109659012
I'm on Win7, and I crash every so often. I forget the specific crash, but it usually gives me a huge long window of errors alongside the crash.

What kind of crash?

>level 53
>just finished off PT2 main story and started doing PT2 knoxx

Will I hit at least level 60 by the end of the DLC?

>>109658934

If you knew how weapon generation worked youd know that's bs.

There are 7 weapon types.

Each weapon type is made of a combo of 8 parts, and there are around 5 variations per part.

>>109659117
Oh god. More?

>>109659117
Very generic "this program has stopped working" crash, little tiny error popup of no significance. The save file tends to get corrupted afterwards. It can happen for various reasons, just out of the blue, or when I'm quitting out of the game, or even starting the game once it reaches the title screen.

>>109659284
Bro, don't get gay on me.

>>109659001

Level 22 pestilent justice.

Used it till level 47.

And I got s level 30 something alactracious panacea, used it all the way till level 69.

Holy shit eridian promtorory was hard on pt2 with only 300 shield points

Mostly because Yang draws him like he's black.

It's starting to show its age, though. Non-anarchy SMGs that are dropping, are almost matching it.

Almost.

>>109661118
Yeah. Not enough sexy art of Mordecai.

>>109659304
Noone have any idea what might be wrong, then?

>>109659922

Maybe you just had deja vu, bro. That's the first time I've posted a pic of my Hunter's skill screen.

>>109661235
I love Mordecai. He reminds me of husband. Same attitude, smirk, and appearance, if he shaved off his moustache. I used to have a decent drawing ability, but then I got into 3D design, and pretty much all the action my tablet sees is texture modifying, and zbrush. I should try making some art. Better yet, I should get my hands on the Borderlands models. Poke around, see if there's anything under his mask. Make nude version, etc. Thanks for inadvertently inspiring me.

>>109661652
>nude Mordecai model

Oh my...

Speaking of models..

>>109661880
I saw that a while ago on Xentax, laughed my ass off, though I never expected anything else.

Lilith's original look. Replaced with red head, and it was used for Steele.

Same thing happened with Mordecai and Reaver.

Are you fucking kidding me?

Why would you get out of the car on that side?

>>109662161
Yeah, and they opted to use Mordecai's old model for those "Truxican Wrestlers". That was pretty funny.

>>109662161

I like the newer Lilith better. Although Steele does look pretty fine ingame...

>>109662161
I was only sad about the Roland change.

Don't really see why they couldn't have just let us choose between a few models, the characters never fucking show up in any fucking thing ever anyway.

i've been debating finally starting the Secret Armory.
I'm on my 2nd playthru, should I finish PT2 before starting Knoxx?

>>109663342

Yeah. PT2 Knoxx starts at level 51, and doesn't scale when you enter the Vault, unlike the other DLCs. So start it at around lvl 51-54.

If you're higher than that you should probably do it immediately, cause it will be too easy later on.

>>109644572

>not loving Wii Fit, one of the best selling games of all time

What a faggot.

Any brotips for getting good class mods? I was thinking of going to every med vendor and then exiting and doing it again, but it turns out they're capped at lvl 55. Is Farmory the only good option?

>>109663342

Can't recall exactly, but I think if you at least enter the area before the vault, or the vault itself, everything everywhere including the Knoxx DLC scales to match your level.

People refer to it as playthrough 2.5. You can even just leave the Destroyer alone and come back later and he will scale.
