WHERE THE FUCK IS IT RANDY editionLegendary farm google doc thing: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1bw4-jnEBbwCa3EnJ9cp8HW839ymgzbbHKIGRo9wgNyo/htmlview?usp=drivesdk&pli=1#https://xsmashx88x.github.io/Shift-Codes/Previous >>540145228
>>540483826First for Vex the Sex.
whats the best vex build atm? currently still leveling right now
>>540484169Bleed bug abuse is the only good build at all
>>540484169The Ghoul and Biden Blast trees are both good. Trouble is total dog ass
>world bosses can leave their own bubble>they can't be damaged while outside of it>but if YOU accidentally put one toe outside the bubble it despawns in 0.1 yoctoseconddie randy die
>>540485881no reason the bubble isnt just a cage match
I just killed an boss that i've been killing for 3 hours straight and this last time he just emitted a light brighter than the sun that lasted for like 30 seconds and then it vanished. what was this besides a possible federal agent?
The Sex
>>540486973doesn't even look like her
>playable claptrap>playable handsome jackremind me why people hate TPS again? outside of "no endgame/respawnable bosses"
Release the vault pass or else
>>540487238whats so special about the vault pass? what does it do? someone explained it like a battlepass that never ends, but what are the benefits and why would you buy it? genuinely curious
>>540487196>outside of "no endgame/respawnable bosses"I mean that basically is the reason.I fucking love TPS, but the lack of endgame is obviously a huge detriment in this genre.
>>540487730It doesn't cost anything, it's just skins and shit that should be in the game right now that they withheld to lock it behind a battlepass system. The benefits are that if the vault pass was out now, any time you spent playing the game currently would be allocated into battlepass shit instead of a month from now when you're likely not going to put in another 100 hours where "weeklies" actually contribute towards something.
>can kill boss on UVHM5 in 5 seconds without crit knife>can kill boss on UVHM5 in 4.5 seconds with crit knifewhy is the crit knife a problem?
>>540489092Because it's a infinite damage buttonThey could hyperscale the content 800% and it wouldnt matter to the knife
>>540489092I think it's just broken interactions with a few action skill DOT's and guns. For most builds and against most bosses, it's pretty shit- you can still just shoot enemies in the head after all. Plus regular grenades are strong as fuck
Tooltip damage formula:[Damage] x [Magazine Sizes] / (([Magazine Sizes] / [Fire Rate]) + [Reload Time])Confirms my suspicion that you can't trust this shit at all. Scaling magazine size, reload time, or regenerating ammo? Congrats, now you need to do the math in your head every time to figure out if it's ACTUALLY an upgrade
lore-wise, what happened to Dahl? t. skipped every cutscene in every borderlands game ever made
>>540482250Can confirm that weapon challenges count as gear for this achievement :) FUCK I am glad lmaoI did it with assault rifles
>>540490386You don't have to go that far, you just inspect the weapon if it's the type that can roll a crit barrel. You keep one with the highest crit multiplier and damage roll. After that, fire rate is the most important stat, then you factor in which licensed parts are desirable. Also aiming for the highest base damage/crit is a priority on elemental weapons since the damage formula is multiplicative in that case.
Have you been trying out all the vault hunters or did you settle with a main already?
>>540493148I'll continue to play the weekly stuff as Vex but I'll do another playthrough as Rafa. I'm pretty sure I have zero interest in even trying out Amon or Harlowe.Their kits just don't seem interesting.
>>540493337this, except i started as Rafa, got to 50, hated his "end game" builds and switched to Vex, level 50 on her now and it's way more fun
>>540486973her VA isn't edgy or emo/punk enough. Should've sounded closer to Lilith in Borderlands 1t.shes my main atm
>>540493337Amon is fun for ordinance span and HJarlowe for infinite crits
encountered maybe 3 legendaries and only 1 was a drop the other 2 were from vendors. on one hand I still get excited seeing it in the vendor but im skeptical, literally unable to not buy them when I see them maybe they should cost more like a lot more, I just got one and it was maybe 5% of my total money. Anyways its an Onion shield with no prefixes. Anyone like that?
>>540493148Leveled vex first and at 49 with a harlowe now. Chose her as the first alt since I had some gear stashed for her. Havent tried Rafa yet since he seemed reminiscent of Zane who I had a fuck ton of hours on so I wanted to try something different.
does vex actually get any fun builds endgame?all I hear about her is bleed bleed and bleed
>>540493689I buy every legendary I see at a vendor. at level 50 everything should just be free because money serves zero fucking purpose. My entire bank is at 450/500 and its just legendaries, and I've probably sold 2/3rds of mine that were low level or duplicates with lower stats
>>540486761This happened to me when i was farming Axemaul
>CoVGod why did they bring this shit backYou're losing 33% damage per shot and all you get in return is double magazine size- except it also doubles reload time, bringing the sum total of it's benefits to a big fat fucking zero. But in reality, nearly every class gets some benefit from constantly firing, so not being able to shoot for 6 seconds is a death sentence.
>>540493431I think it's endearing, she's trying to sound like an emo witch but her actual kind personality keeps slipping throughnot to mention when she turns into a full on shameless cute dork for The Boss' missions
>>540494068bleed is really good but bleed is also extremely good.>>540494096that's who i was killing when it happened
>>540494140yeah i hate these, wish we got actual hyperion guns
>>540494140what the fuck guns are you using that take that long to reload? what level are you that you don't have some sort of built in reload speed buff
>>540494068I don't use bleed at all on her. It's pretty good in general but its broken interactions will probably be patched and i dont have enough points to spare, maybe i'll grab it ehen DLC vomes out and extends the level cap. I'm currently running a kinetic/lifesteal build with the Teen Witch legendary class mod. There are some builds for doing one big shot damage via Bloodshot builds too, though i have no idea how good they actually are
>>540494436Oh my bad, I just used the default value on the gun. Let me revise my post and include every possible variation of reload speed that each class can attain based on their most popular trees!dipshit. if you're stacking reload speed, you don't fuckin need a 100 bullet magazine, do you?
why is the new update 65 gb for me???
remember Gaige's anarchy. build? kinda style that I didn't know I needed until they designed it but man I dont think a skill tree has ever been as fun as that, Krieg had some cool stuff and I always wanted to try Moze's grenade stuff was that one lit?
>>540495826Randy forgot to unplug his USB drive full of "magic tricks" and it was packaged with the update
>>540493148I only played Vex so far. Will do everything with her first and then I don't know, if I feel like it I will play another character or wait for more content
>>540496038is it 65 gb for everytone?
cant decide on who to playtried a vex, rafa and harlowebut fuck me i cant stand harlowe at allso vex or rafawhats the dig here on hard mode, solo
>>540493148im leveling one til the end of story then ill do the same with each other, first its Vex, and Amon is my split screen with the negris my waif
>>540496515Vex has a better oneshot build with her bleeds.Rafa is comfier and probably better all around, but it's kind of boring. Also it's a complete visual clusterfuck when his action skill is up with a capstone other then shotguns
fuuuck im at Umbral Foundry for the first time and im in the big crystal room where you have to throw the yellow crystals to break the forcefields and im having a bitch of a time finding them aswell as getting them to the forecfields before they self destruct, most irritating dungeon mechanic yet
>>540494081i think they should just increase the legendaries store price and add money sink things like slot machine or some kind of temp buffs you could buy, more fun to have a use for your money and I felt the same in the older games
>>540494862If you're using a 100 mag gun you'll use a build where you never have to reload
This gun is so good that I'm considering using one of each element
>>540496989hmmm i do like comfythough i like vexs VA
>>540498154Daedalus shotguns remind me of the guns in Alien Resurrection
>just got to vile boss with all the armsohkay officially love this game, BL3 is crushed
Any Vex Minion builds?
>>540498154Natural consequence of the enhancement system. If my enhancement gives me 75% more damage with a specific manufacturer, you'd be actively gimping yourself by using anything else. And since the game just came out, there's barely more then 1 viable gun for a given class per manufacturer.For me it's the wombo combo and vladoff +proj +underbarrel damage
okay 2nd phase of vile whatshisname is crushing me, theres no adds to revive my ass goddamnit
>>540499390Have you tried killing him in one hit?
>>540499683what builds that
>>540499764It's just amp shot repkit + spread launcher under-barrel.
>>540499315Daedalus is kind of shit. You make a great point but I probably have to get CoV on all these Bods for the 100% crit on overheat + 35% fire rate over 50% heat
>>540499683i got him, pretty easy once i realized i should be jumping on those islands, everything else was easy enough to dodge, awesome boss on every metric especially visual
>picked up quest item after Vile Lictor before grabbing my legendary drop>immediately trigger cutscene and send me awayserious design flaw there
>>540500106Daedalus works, but only SMG's with the "overcharge" attachement (doubles burst and rate of fire)Too bad it's one of the rarest in the game
>>540500318Can you get that on Darkbeast?
>>540500318that sounds great, I've never seen it
>>540500271Hated that too, but you can just take the jump pack back in case you missed something. Super annoying, but you don't lose your loot like I thought.
>>540500406Not sure, leaning towards no. I've been trying to get a Wombo Combo with the double/third barrel vladoff attachment (which is the overcharge equivalent for vladoff AR's) for 3 days with no luck. So I'm thinking special attachments can't show up on legionaries.
>>540500770Oh, it's possible the rip rockets underbarrel takes up that slot
>>540500770I've got an Aegon with the extra barrel attachment, so they can show up unless that's a guaranteed part it spawns with.
got my first legendary class mod and its actually for my class, Injected Undead Die, however it emphasizes snipers which I use but only like 15% of the time
>>540501351That's guaranteed, so are the ones on Lucian's Flank
>>540498154Based and Bodpilled
>>540501124heh i read that as Nip Rockets>BANZAIUROOOOO KAMEEKAZE
i spoiled myself by looking up build guidesnow i cant decide who and what to play...
>>540483826I CLICKED ON THIS THREAD IN THE CATALOG LIKE "WTF?" CAUSE I SAW THE THUMBNAIL AND THOUGHT IT WAS A FUCKING THREAD FOR THE WIPEOUT SERIES
>>540502236Hey randy
>>540498747trouble is in a rough spot but her blue tree minions are pretty good. they can carry you early game and late game will be used for some added damage and to provide buffs. all the lifesteal applies to them as well with skills so if you set your gunner spectres in a good spot they can mox down incoming guys and keep themselves activated without much babysitting.
>>540502236You got BLASTEDThat's what we BADASSES do around here
>>540502236My advice: read
Disappointed with the performance of this game (gpu vram leak crashes every hour) but I'm somewhat pleased to hear they've indefinitely delayed the switch 2 launch. That tells me despite their PR, Randy knows the game has serious performance problems that have to be addressed and it seems like that's where they're putting their resources. also the response from real gamers has been strong enough that Randy won't be able to get away with a launch day cash out
>>540502236haha space cars
>>540500271True but>>540500734Yeah, I was quite mad since I think this is the only time picking up the drop kicks you out but it's alright once you see that you can just hop back in again
>>540499315>wombo combo and vladoff +proj +underbarrel damagefunny because that doesn't actually work
>>540503012The gun is good enough that it doesn't need to work, we build around placebo here
>>540502778Did they? They should have never planned a Switch release, it will be worse than the BL2 Vita fiasco kek
>>540502506But they are bad in comparison?
>>540503012>Doesn't get underbarrel buffs despite explicitly stating that it's firing from the underbarrel>Can't roll a different underbarrel because the legendary part takes up the underbarrel slotBravo Randy!
>>540501967>build guidesi am the polar opposite type of player, people keep telling me Trouble sucks, sorry I'm having fun I don't need to have higher numbers in my singleplayer weekend game, i will never look up a guide because im just gonna pick the skills that sound good to me and I'll switch skill treees every 10 or so levels just to try it all out just got into th eldritch shockwave tree
>>540503123Yes, Gearbox is actually canceling Switch 2 pre-orders to vendors from their end so internally things must be looking pretty rough
>>540503663i just wish i could turn that offi might just do that too anon
this is the first game besides wonderlands i haven't played at launch. besides the performance issues, how does it compare to 3?
>>540503736way better
another day another reminder how thankful I am I don't have to navigate that fucking sanctuary ship again, jesus christ
>>540503736It's an improvement for sure. I would argue they didn't course correct hard enough after 3, but if you liked 3 you'll like this one.
>>540503663I don't even know why you'd need a guide, it's hard to fuck up your build in these games. Just don't pick shit that doesn't benefit the play style you want.
>>540503663I had the most fun figuring out how to make a good Trouble build, it could use buffs but it doesn't suck
>>540504087I find trouble pretty good, unleashed is solid, middle tree sucks, left tree is pretty good but the capstone needs a damage buff
As a borderlands 1 chad, i'mho:>Borderlands>Borderlands 4>Borderlands 2>fuck idk the rest were so forgettable
>>540503736It's alot better.
im guessing im about halfway through the game got a few takeaways>order robots are cool but the variety has run thin and its getting old i want more bandits, the loaders were constantly showing up with new models in 2 and it was exciting everytime>first open world game in years that actually felt like a good idea, I hated the levels in 3 and this is closer to 2's quality in explorable world>game maybe needs more difficulties, I haven't tried hard yet but I get the feeling I should be on it outside of a boss fight or getting gang raped by badasses, I need to be on a medium hard difficulty>though initially I was bummed about losing launchers as a regular weapon ordinance is a massive success, having them regenerate instead of running out is a solution I never considered to the problem of saving grenades for no reason, also the new shield types are solid>again I miss plenty of the old enemies, I don't get why its so hard to bring back old types if even only on a small level, I miss loaders, bandit rats, goliaths, spiderants, varkids (only for the evolve mechanic), not a single borderlands has nailed enemy variety since 2>love the skill trees splitting into 3 mini trees>should've brought back the weapon mechanic from wonderlands though ordinance is a nice swap for spells
>>540504223Vorpal fang is the worst of the specialized augments, but tail whip is the bread and butter of Trouble's minion damage if you combine it with violent outburst and a low cooldown. My build was basicallly waiting for Trouble to use tail whip, suicide bomb him, instantly respawn Trouble using blood sacrifice and other cooldown reduction, repeat.
>>540503736after this one the only reason I would ever play 3 again is because they did a pretty good job on the class designs. few reasons id replay the old ones..>1 has peak atmosphere and sense of adventure>2 is best all around especially for loaders and the levels like lynchwood and fridge and opportunity>wonderlands is a great gimmick, melee, spells, classes, the weird levels like beanstalk, I think its underratedpre sequel is the only one I never delved into and I think I might I just really hated the first levels and the spacey feel, I think I didn't give it a fair shot though but something about the classes turned me away, whats the best part about it? I don't care about endgame much
>>540496287Mine is 11
>>540504414i so wish they maintained the vibe of 1, the mad max sense of an apocalyptic bandit lost world with aliens beneath the surface was awesome, that sense of emptiness is so gone now
>>540504714Yeah variety is a huge problem. I think they invested way too much time into the animals- we got skaggs, pangolins, maulers, kratch, threshers, and those horn beasts. I would have been fine with dropping 75% of those if it meant we got Loaders back.
>>540505192100% (fact checked by gamers)
>>540503298its the ai mainly, the spectres will either stand still and shoot or be a reaper that floats directly to their next melee target while trouble has to pathfind their way.
if the world went down the right timeline Borderlands would have a special bandit enemy called>Transvestitebasically a femme psycho, would fit right in with midgets and flaming psychos
>>540505502:(
>>540505525if the world went down the right timeline Maya would still exist
>>540505525I mean the game at it's core despite all the surface-level bullshit is about slaughtering anti-civilizational dysgenic mutant freaks
thought of something else the game is missing. where tf are Bruisers?>MEET YOUR MAKAHthat shit was a fucking staple. Meatheads are cool but why leave out such a simple classic
>>540505639more like each new game wouldn't feature the vault hunters from the previous game, their story is over, making Borderlands the Lilith story ruined her mystique she had and same for everyone else that came back
Ever since the update it looks like I'm recompiling shaders every time I start the game making it stutter constantly for the first 10 - 15 minutes. Before the patch this only occurred the first time in an area.
is there a legendary shotgun that has to reload after every shot? very specific but that my favorite type of gun to use, i find it incredibly satisfying. One well placed shot to the face and good night
>>540507549hellwalker or hot slugger
I think my biggest issue with open world and exploration in general is I'm constantly searching areas like I used to and coming up with absolutely nothing, used to be I'd search behind this building up on a ledge and half the time I'd find some cool chest that opened like a transformer, hell of a lot less of that in this one, i dont even need the loot to be amazing I just have to get more of them>>540508151bless you
>>540508314Isn’t that going on now? When is it
>>540508984My advice: read
>>5405089846:30 p.m. PT Borderlands 4 TGS Special Stage Break free! Quit Earth!
It's Friday, where is the vault pass?
>>540508314Hyper levels beyond human comprehension!!!
>>540508314At TGS?? Bros will we get an anime waifu holy shit
>>540487196the maps are just too big for the amount of stuff actually in themthe skill trees,glitch weapons,and combat are all fucking kino thoughif 2k aus didnt get shut down and pre-seq had the same content as 2/3 it would literally be the b est game in the franchise to be honest
>>540508314Is that in 9 hours?
It's Rose dudes
>>540509853>expect them to reveal an anime waifu at TGS>instead it's literally just Bazz.
>>540510039Who's rose?
>>540510039Made for innocent good willed men
I need every 'activates on repkit use' skill removed from the game yesterday
>>540509853>Bros will we get an anime waifu holy shityes, we're getting an anime girlwe're getting Maya back
>>540510917what if you could still shoot while using it?
>>540510669Bl3 dlc boss
>>540505038WHY ISNT MINE THAT
I miss when lilith was just a badass with fire shit instead of the magical chosen one
>>540511068Doesn't matterI don't want to using the fucking healing item when I don't need to heal
>>540511414don't forget a coalburner too
I heard people talk about farming on easy? what a pussy move>>540511414she was amazing in 1, 2 was a huge dropoff and its only gotten worse
Update on loot filters?
>>540511918I got two of em, they're called "eyes"
>>540511972absolute boomer post
is Amon homosexual
>>540512640better question why is Whiteface acceptable?
Lads it was revealed to me in a dream the vault hunters will get a throwback skin pack to previous games>Rafa: FL4K >Vex: Maya in her BL3 outfit>Amon: Brick the Slab king with the sledge helm>Harlowe: Aurelia TPS edition
fl4k's big game hunt dlc when
>>540511291Just wanted to say that we have never got an already knowm character as a playable vault hunter. But then I remembered the pre sequel. And then again, it's the pre sequel.
Speaking of TPS who had an armor HP bar yes but what about a VH whos HP bar was a shield instead?
>>540513689How about a Roland skin for Rafa?
>>540514298>shield bar with nothing underneathlike a hologram or some shit?
Anyone else getting this audio bug where it sounds like someone starts speaking for like half a second then cuts off? Happens once or twice a minute.
>>540517670yesthe 'audio bug'in he 'videogame'
bros what ordnance legendaries are worth farmingill use heavy weapons or grenades as long as its good
>>540517670Yeah, I've been getting that
>>540517670fuck me i thought i was going insane
>>540517670Yes. This shit only popped up in the latest update, and it's driving me fucking crazy
new hunter soon?
>red harlowe fucks>green harlowe fucks>blue harlowe is meh>but blue has so much QoL that you'd be doing yourself a disservice not taking some i'm glad this time around it isn't just "all points in this tree and only this tree", spread shit around so we can't get all of the good stuff and need to pick and choose.
Firmware shouldn't have been transferable
>>540505192I fully agree but it's really only an aesthetic that could reasonably exist for like 1 or 2 games, it would legitimately get boring after 3
finally get to the late game desert and enjoying some bandit content and fuck are these bandit hairstyles repetitive and gay lefty shit
Is there really no point to having lots of money apart from the 100 millies challenge?
Extremely unpopular opinion: Gearbox should nerf way more things. I don't really understand all the hype around Borderlands buildcrafting and itemization when every game inevitably settles into using a very small handful of obviously broken items. Where is even the fun in farming and scaling up your character when the baseline is "kill every boss in the game in 2 seconds"?>just don't use the itemsit's not even like there are just one or two, there are several and a lot of them do fit a build niche but are just so strong that it makes the rest of the itemization process irrelevant. Also optimization made while purposefully gimping yourself feels meaningless
>>540517816firepot
chances the new VH is gonna be OP as fuuuuuuuck?
>>540522470Have to nerf like 30% of the items if you want to avoid 2 second kill builds, there's too many good things to pick from
[SystemSettings]r.EdgeDetection.Enabled=0to remove cell shadingit looked better in bl2and it looks better herealso nice fps bump
so is the Hellwalker good now
>>540504714I miss the big ones which you could shoot their heads off, making them rampage and grow in size when they killed enemies.
>>540523390looks so much cleaner
>>540519360Just checked, Sunday, 4 in the morning for central Europeans. Not going to make it.
>>540522470I was thinking about this yesterday. Isn’t that just the genre? The goal of Diablo 2 and path of exile is to press a button and everything dies, rinse and repeat I think for borderlands, it probably is too easy to reach that point after actually engaging with the mechanics during leveling. But unless builds get kneecapped in strength, idk how to put the toothpaste back in the tube. I also think enemies have the same dull AI and behaviors at level 1 that they do at 50. Everything is essentially stationary grass that you as the scythe just easily cut down. Even if enemies were tankier and we had to “interact” with them, in the current state of things and enemy AI, is that a good/fun thing?How’s destiny? Never played it but do you work towards getting so strong you oneshot everything at the end?
>>540523390Now we need the mod that scales enemy density up to 4 players while playing solo, I used that for so many hours in BL2
RESPECCING COSTS ERIDIUM?!
Got one of these
>>540515004>Roland outfit and Roland facemask I like it, but, uh oh, I can see someone being reported to HR for being a little racist with the black face.
>>540493431I mean she's also a teenager still. I think it fits since she's pretty much just pretending to be an edgy tough girl.
>>540523946destiny has one shot builds but every boss is given checkpoints every 1/3rd of their health where they go immune and just walk around while you kill addsvery boring
Why does this game have 0 music in the overworld?
>>540523946There's a dichotomy in players where some people embrace the ARPG side where you instantly kill everything with the gear and builds you acquired and then the looter shooter side of players where they want to shoot the same glowing red eyeball for 30 seconds and reload a few times in between rather than it taking a fraction of the time.
whys this random npc got marcus voice
>>540522470i just dont even bother looking up the "optimization" its not like ill figure it out on my own because i just pick skills for fun, just picked one that said my crits have a 1% chance of triggering my kill skills, lmao, im using snipers mostly right now what a contradiction
WhereTHE FUCKIs the music???
>>540523582Goliaths are just another reason Borderlands 2 was king, between them and Varkids you could turn a regular battle with randoms into a legit boss battle
is there, any, reason to open packs at non max lvl
>>540524070my most desired gun, where'd it drop
>>540525053This is a good example of why the level system has always held Borderlands back. You end up with elixir syndrome because you don't want to feel like you're wasting your resources. And buying anything below level cap is wasting your resources.The entire system is fucking broken and isn't good game design.
What's the>shotgun>smg>arClasses?
>>540524397they legit slashed their budget for the music guaranfuckintee. Still I ended up turning down all other audio in the settings except for music and then cranked my tv up to make it less buried
>>540525301soooo im guessint i should hoard it until 30?>>540525340theres minutes with 0 music while exploring, 0meanwhile bl2 had cool music for every place even when nothing was happening
>>540525053they snapshot at the level earned
>>540525435alright hoarding this shit until 50h infuck sake
>>540525186
>>540525497There's no reason to, I meant the level you earned the packs. If you completed a quest at level 15, if you open it at 50 the guns will still be level 15.

>>540526619You can pretty reliably shred Idolator Sol after you null his invuln once. He's not tanky enough that he's immune to burst
>>540526619You just run in a circle for 5 seconds until he drops the green shit then blast him
>>540526619if your fullbuild outside of a leggo class mod there is no reason you cant melt sol after the first armor break
>>540526619He's very easy to kill in 30s or lessHe has one mandatory invuln and is full flesh after that
WHAT THE FUCK
>>540522470I'm having my fun melting things with the hot slugger. Don't take my fun away just use something else if you want to kill things slower.
>>540526619only boss i farmed like 10 timess immediately after killing because i thought he was so whatever
>get phosphene kaosan drop>oh fuck yeah thats phosphene number 2>and its a different weapon hell yeah>its on my alt>challenge is per character ha should have known. got me again Randy!
>>540528281What the fuck
i hope the new vault hunters are cool and crazy op
>>540528252And when they add UMVH ranks that are higher the boss melting we are seeing now will be less extreme, same thing we went through with mayhem.
For me literally the only fun thing about Amon is throwing an axe and freezing an enemy while a cryo hazard appears below him. This character is fucking boring and all his skills are boring.
>>540528696its gonna be awhile before a new one is released right? i was picturing a year almost
This is a basic day 1 complaint that I could tolerate for the last 150 hours of playtime but the menus being buggy as fuck is making me drop the game until it's fixed, I've just had enough with failing to sort weapons after boss farming.
I'm sick of that damn shield, man
>>540530584heh im playing with a broken left stick on my PS5 controller, the problems people complain about compared to the shit I deal with
>>540530584Here's my favorite part about that, its the same inventory bug that BL3 launched with.
In bl2 it sucks that I pretty much have to use unkempt Harold. I like playing psycho in hellborn until level 80, except I don't like the cringe voiceover which I didn't have in axe build. I liked using bandit smg with a big mag for every element. But now enemies just simply don't die except if I shoot them with slag and with unkempt Harold after that.Like what's the point? Sure I can bust my rectus and survive with my usual gun but it's so much easier with unkempt Harold and I just have to have it for some fights, it's unavoidable.Immediately fucking dropped it. Wasted several days getting to level 80.
>>540530003that just entrenches the broken item as the only usable ones and makes it so itemization and builds overall are completely meaningless
>>540530839It's just fatigue I have after playing 8-10+ hours daily for the last two weeks, it could've been something else I'd put the blame on for burning out but that thing in particular is bringing the most inconvenience, which is an actual bad part of the game rather than a broken peripheral being an external issue.
>>540530758If you're talking about invuln shields, you can bypass it with stickies until that's patched.
just got to gunkworks, i swear this is one of the only times the music actually made the experience feel badass
So I know Amon is gay but what about the other 3?
>>540533468obviously the negris worships white men, and Vex claims to be lesbian but secretly wants a deep dicking, havent played Rafe yet
this thing fucks up trash nicely. wish it made a bloop sound though since it looks like an M79
>>540531321The balance issues with 2 and shit like The Bee and UVHM are why I personally prefer TPS and think it's a better game. Though I also last played with the mods that let me scrap and rebuild weapons. Grinding for perfects is a waste of life nobody should ever put themselves through.I bring it up a lot. If you could keep the good parts of the level system while discarding the bad or coming up with new systems to supplant them, Borderlands would genuinely be good. It's held back by its own core.
>farming for a katagawa revenge to replace my lower level one>get almost perfect rainbow vomit
AAAACK!She was easy btw, so was the vault nigga on the green grass area. I have this smg that fires the entire clip in 2s and melts everything plus an enhancement that increases crits. I'm playing on hard
>>540532785No it's that slut shield that keeps moaning in my ear like a paid prostitute
>>540534397
i hit the button on the back of the giant drill thing at gunkworks and now the directions are incredibly poor, what am I supposed to do, game is acting like its obvious, literally sitting here with my controller vibrating eternally
>>540531321Bl2 is the only game that I didn't care to play much past the main campaign.I really don't get what people saw in it. Constantly getting fucking blasted into ffyl in one hit, slag, terribly unbalanced legendaries, poorly balanced VHs.Yeah I guess the story was better, but you could still feel the insufferable writing of 3 simmering beneath the surface.
>>540522470I'm doing 0 research online, just trying items and sticking with those I find good, and I'm destroying everything playing on hard. Just had a 2 hour play session that was honestly mindless, just enter arena W+M1 and erase everything, sometimes I die because I'm so bored that I stop moving.
>>540534974fuck i figured it out I had to jump onto that random ledge I forgot about, god I mustve road laps for 25 minutes
>>540534974Keep riding the thing and jump on the platform with the quest marker then go up the stairs, I just did this quest
>>540535060better enemies, better levels. Borderlands 4 has parts that are as good or better but 3 was trash on most levels outside its characters
>>540535327>>540535060and besides doing new game+ once each playthrough I started a new character each time, end game content in borderlands is kinda retarded the guantlets of enemies is what borderlands is about not replaying raid bosses and 2 did the gauntlets well. Exploring and progressing through the world was perfection in 2. Nothing in 3 compares to Lynchwood and very little in 1 does.
>go to maurice's>cant decide, back out to look at inventory>vending machine lockedim going to stab randy in his fat faggot retard fucking throat
>>540536247back in 30 minutes at least though the rolls will be different.
To hell with it. I'll let you decide where the next 400 hours of my life go. Is it worth a potential FPS hit to have all of your animations be displayed to all players in co-op? Is this something that matters to you?
I miss BL1 weapon designs
Second phosphene drop of the day, either I'm lucky or they buffed the drop rate a bit. Took about 1.5 hours but I got a jakobs roll on the katagawa.
>>540533468Vex is bisexual
>>540531321Unkempt Harold is indeed an OP gun in BL2 but you are kind of doing it wrong AND missing out, especially on Krieg, if all you're using is the Unkempt Harold. There are many, many other guns that are plenty viable up to OP10 for Krieg. You just gotta look up builds and carry more than one gun around. Check out videos of people doing raid bosses, and shit like Digistruct Peak. You don't bring a DPUH for most of those. I'm not going to namedrop specific youtubers but there is at least one guy who did a 1 to OP10 solo run on Krieg where he plays around with different guns and gear and talks about how they are or are not good on Krieg (also does it for each VH). There is a lot to the game that you probably missed out on, especially if all you did was blitz lv 80 in a couple days.Every Vault Hunter is viable in OP10 in BL2. Some are harder than others but it's not just slag+DPUH.>I liked using bandit smg with a big mag for every element.You know, with Krieg's skills, you can do that with any gun instead of just Bandit guns. Nothing says fun like having fuckhuge mag sizes while running around and being unkillable. I'm surprised you didn't know about it yet.Also, once you're hitting endgame, you should start looking into taking in better guns. Go look at legendary Bandit guns, quest uniques, etc. Incorporate them into your build instead of just standing still and holding M1.
>>540531321Forgot to spoonfeed you a good resource for looking at weapons: https://www.lootlemon.com/db/borderlands-2/weapons
did not realize i was underleveled and I went to Fallen Crown and boy howdy is anything other than long distance sniping difficult, is the boss gonna filter me?
The Zane-Amara dialogue is really good, it's actually a shame that there isn't more Vault Hunter dialogue with each other
>>540534502Anon. What's going on, big guy? You just tripped my wife.
I have been recommended the first 'can you beat borderlands 4 with only _' video
>>540538868I actually like these videos for certain games because it often highlights underused mechanics but that obviously doesn't make sense for Borderlands, you can beat the game with literally anything and it's relatively straight forward
has anyone had a bug where the enemies wont attack you? im playing Vex on the moon throne area and i was just getting throttled and now enemies cant see me or something, feels like cheating
I wonder where the third one went
Kill all Kratch Destroy all KratchBurn all Kratch breeding groundsPoison all Kratch food sourcesPummel all KratchElectrocute all KratchRiddle all Kratch with holesDetonate all Kratch
Is ordnance Vex legit or a meme?
>>540542343Ordinance ANYTHING is legit, everybody is just enamoured by the crit knife right now
>>540540390legit got to the bandit queen boss and she wasnt attacking me either, shot her in the head like 6 times, felt a deep sadness inside then i quit to main menu, it teleported me right up to the boss checkpoint but im a good boy so I fast traveled to the start of the instance and this time it wasnt glitched
>>540542902as fun as throwing out 6 daggers in a single click is, I still prefer this for 99% of the encounters since it covers the map and just one shots everything but shields with fire resist
>>540542902Singularity knife is great on red tree harlowe so she can draw everyone into a little pile to get fucking nuked on. Destrocto disc is nutty if you can throw it into a group or a chokepoint, it'll keep spinning and inflicting status and damage for 5 to 10 seconds.
what is happening with your face area
is there a single good pistol in 4
>>540545132Yeah the Torgue pistols because explosions
>>540545132seventh sense can touch me inappropriately
Trying out different shields but man super soldier just feels really solid for almost everything.
>>540545132are you kidding? im using this Looming Muki Jakobs 4 shot revolver right now and it just hard carried me through some shit and felt great the whole time
>>540545132Jakobs with the vial launcher
I know i'm definitely in the minority here but I don't like that BL4 is another instance in what I call the "mana problem" which is that games in the past kinda made you care about your resources and mana. Now they just absolutely don't and mana is just something that is around as a relic of the past. I remember running out of ammo all the time in Borderlands 1 and 2 and now I barely ever open up an ammo chest unless random dialogue is happening.
>>540545132Honestly barely count since it's the tediore effect that makes it fun but King's Gambit
>>540547445yeah you'd have to exclusively use one gun and then maybe early on you might run out of ammo, order snipers definitely ran out for me
yipee just got my first phosphene, its the plasma coil
>>540547445No I'm with you. It's especially egregious because SDUs are one of the only "carrots" for rewarding exploration, and you barely need them for anything other than backpack space.Add on the fact that money and eridium are also worthless, and things start to feel pretty hollow.
>>540547445Is that really a bad thing? Running out of sniper ammo was my #1 grievance in playing BL1 and BL2. And the ammo chests were intentionally designed to not give you any until you were below 50% but more like below 10%.
Rafa sounds like a fat guy doing a racist impression and it's extremely distracting
>>540548885it is weird when you take off his helmet and his voice just doesn't match his face. I think Rafa is easily the weakest of the new vault hunters, he feels like he belongs in BL3
Will the new character be cute???
bandit queen is dead and the last games vault hunters and the new one are trying to rescue Lilith talking about how shes a hero blah blah and meanwhile all these bandits are desperately protecting the graveyard of their former queen, the glorious work she had tried to put together to take them to the stars, legit feel way more spirited for the bandits fighting to their last breath than anything our characters got going on
>>540549206The thing is that they really aren't bandits. It's a slave revolt.
>>540548835I just feel like it gives me more things to 'care' about. I like that dance of like what do I need to be looking out for, maybe I use my weaker guns on mobs and my stronger guns on badasses/bosses. I used to feel relieved when I see like a bunch of ammo when I needed it. Now a player is always just in a constant familiar feeling of always being ready. It just injects a bit more dynamism into a game.
>>540549360They're kidnapping people and non-consensually ripping them, a procedure that is shown to invariably cause either madness or death.They may very well be a slave revolt, but they're not not bandits
>>540549450I get what you're saying. Doesn't have to be one extreme or another but somewhere in the middle. I can live with that.The moment I went from BL1 to BL2 and saw that they took away literally every ammo generation gun/mechanic/class mod away from the other classes and only gave it to Salvador for himself and the Hoarder class mods (and excluded rocket launcher ammo), I was miserable because I would be at 5/60 sniper ammo for like 90% of the time.
>>540549113Canonically hag moxxy
>>540549360either or im just impressed that the bandits cause made me root for them to kill me
>>540549659They're kidnapping people who are mindslaved and are forcibly removing the thing that makes them mindslaved. In madness, they fight. In death, they are free.
>>540550309>drinking the cool-aid of a fictional cult
>>540550459No, the cult was in 3. The Rippers in 4 are literally an army of the enslaved breaking their chains and taking part in a revolt.
>>540548990Yeah he's definitely miscast
okay now im really pissed, i run the wrong way trying to get rid of the "blockage" atop the rocket and cant seem to find a way to get back to the elevated platform (im near the rocket itself not the building) and so I figure maybe i can jump to my death because theres no other way I see back up and it revives me at the very bottom of the entire fucking level back by Amara and Zane. I can't remember the last time I fucked this hard on a game
>>540550704
Timekeeper was a terrible villain and Arjay was so mishandled and wasted that it's hilarious and also sad
>>540550891If you think that's bad, try crashing during a wildcard mission.
>bramblesong drops legendary over the edge of its arena>lost loot decided to grab some purples and blues instead
>>540551208The trvthnvke is that this game is genuinely worse in every way than bl3, especially the writing. Rush is worse than anything people cried about in 3
>>540551282hows that work i havent done those yet
>>540551478Borderlands 3 babies surely will be saying this in the coming months and years. In reality B4 is easily in contention with 1 for second best, theres not one breathtaking moment in 3 and theres several in 4
>Cov guns don't lose heat when you switch them outjust whyIt would give an actual reason to use this worthless mechanic
>>540551740If breathtaking moments are your metric then 1 would be the worst game, nothing happens until you fight flynt
>>5405519241 is good for several other reasons but yes Flynt was a great sequence
so erm how did they get dem cables to stretch all the way to the spacey space
>>540552697they threw them really darn hard
>>540552974saw my dad throw a football that far once
>>540553352im guessing he wasnt there anymore once you returned with the ball
If they're smart they would use the whole Arjay lilith doomsday shit to soft reboot the series. I really think that the reduced scope of this game hurt it, but only because bl3 went so crazy. If I just played a game where I saved like, 50 planets from annihilation, the entire timekeeper thing feels incredibly trite. It's only one planet after all
>Roland, Brick, Mordecai, Lilith>Axton, Maya, Salvador, Zer0, Gaige, Krieg>Athena, Wilhelm, Nisha, CL4P-TP, Aurelia, Timothy>FL4K, Zane, Amara, Moze>Rafa, Vex, Harlowe, Amonbut who has the BEST name of all the vault hunters?"Timothy" is so unassuming that I like it

Are tediore weapons usable now post buff?
don't see why bosses can't have a chance at dropping 5 or 10 sdu widgets on occasion.
>>540555963>2 more
>>540556625you WILL eat the collectible bugs and you will be happy
>>540556781good lord he dropped a kill spring. he dropped a legendary from the general pool before dropping from his dedicated loot pool. its a game now, will i get the drop or will the loot make the game crash.
>>540547445You can burn through ammo on UVH5 if you play with firmware and builds that don't refund or grant you infinite ammo, though. Try firing one of those double barrel vladof rifles and see how much you can spend in 30 seconds.
got the GMR assault rifle and its the first time I got a legendary that has outpaced any other gun for like 5+ levels, its at 711 dps and my other strongest guns are just now getting to 550 dps
the lilith we "saved" shouldve been n imposter setting up Borderlands 5 that arjay mentioned
>>540558478some guns are just like that. wombo combo as well just slaps for like 8 - 10 levels.
I have hot slugger and a gazillion dmg amp but my fren still mogs me with linebacker
>>540559118I like what we got, where she's the subject of multiple conflicting prophecies; fated to both destroy and save the universe. Gearbox'll undoubtedly fuck up the execution, but that could've been a very compelling story.
>get kerrigan down to 5% health>fall of the platform because i did a powerslam right off the edge
>>540559785>powerslamDo melee builds even use that shit? It feels so ass
>>540560294i was trying to do the air dash but apparently whether it does the slam or air dash is dependent on the exact height you are at, and no i think its just for show, idk maybe ill use it on my Amon
>>540557241got a darkbeast and a phosphene lucky clover off of mimicron before getting the sniper from his dedicated pool. but thats the second phosphene tonight, so i'm guessing they upped the drop chances.
>>540484276 Bloodshot is just as good and doesn't use bugs Kill skill teenwitch build mixed with blue tree is also good. Fucking retarded casual
>>540559516Yeah that sounds really interesting and not trite at all.
>>540562314Okay sourpuss, why don't you show off some of your writing?
>>540563514Not them, but I had an idea ages ago where the opening of the first vault could've kicked off an Akashic failsafe put in place by the Eridians where everything from that point up to a certain period would be temporally archived in a sort of flux state. A retarded Schrodinger's Cat of causality where it both did happen and did not, with the nature of events functionally in question up until the point of resolution. And the driving plot motion would basically be that the hard drive is filling up, and so the vault where this is all taking place starts setting off alarm bells because the downside of having a limited space Akashic record is that, if the memory fills up, there's a very serious chance it crashes the universe.
>>540563514Maya come back from the dead, grow a phase dick and impregnate Lilith on the spot, creating the antechrist
>>540563934But I guess that's out given they already blew the Timekeeper load.
>>540563514Nvm, forgot you need to be a good writer to criticise centre-of-the-universe lilith
>>540554769I only played Athena but I love her. I love riot shield effects.

>>540564671based and retardpilled
>>540563514NTA but I did concept out a comic to do with a bud once back in the BL1 days. We didn't wind up going through with it though.
where is the zanzibart forgive me mmission
can we all agree the series peaked with BL2
Why is the elemental damage so strangeI saw a gun here with 250 dps fire at LVL 50But I had a shotgun at LVL 19 with over 1000 fire dps
The Hellwalker is basically unusable with the wide spread. Now you can't even get kinetic damage on it. Dogshit
>>540565813for maliwan you need to look at the DoT damage not the actual gun dps
>>540565950Yeah it was a maliwan Ohh is that why the fire dmg was so high comparatively
>>540564406I reckon you just need to demonstrate a certain level of proficiency before I can let you get away with using the word "trite."
>>540565810No
>>540566152>before I canWho the fuck are you? At best you're one of the tranny writers making the games worse
>watching a Duke Nukem retrospective interview>they're going through a level>they point out how the scale on objects is all over the place>"Oh yeah. You can tell this was one of Randy's maps."Jesus Christ.

is it okay to pick zane in borderlands 3
>>540569009he's the character I hear about the most when it comes to bl3.
>>540569009Do you like moving at mach 3 and tearing shit up?
"Handsome Jack" will return as a DLC vault hunter. He won't be referred to as Handsome Jack by name, but the voice will be identical and references will be made to Handsome Jack that break the fourth wall. Specifically, an NPC will meet the vault hunter and compliment his looks by saying "Wow, you're handsome, Jack!"
>>540565810For me it's unironically Pre Sequel
>>540548990shit take rafa is easily top 3 vh of all time
>>540565810yup
Reinstalled 2. Yep. Even with the rebalance mod installed, UVHM is still the most unfun dogshit I've ever experienced.
>>540570471I love his concept, I just hate that "constantly interjecting random spanish into sentences" burger king club type dialogue. If anyone should have had a weird made up culture it should have been the guy raised in zero G.
this is the weakest roster of major bosses since presequel. are the bosses in the side content good, or are they just glorified generic enemies?
>>540565810Fuck no
Fuck me this Timekeeper fight is fucking AIDS and CANCER
>>540572069just don't look at him
>>540483826Figured you folk would be able to let me know, is BL4 worth getting if none of my friends want to play and I like random matchmaking? I heard from someone before you wait until you beat the game before you co-op with randoms in Borderlands games, that sound right? I'm gonna assume the matchmaking is a bit aimless if you do it with randoms so you get a lot of kicks/leaves so it's a bit shit
>>540573206its shit, people can fuck with your save online
>>540573206crashes are too frequent.
What are you expecting out of tomorrows announcement?
>>540573317>>540573523Damn I'll wait for a 50% then combo it with a friend, cheers
>>540573603Either a cowboy or plague doctor type. Kinda hope its a mix of both
>>540569009literally my goto character, most variety of action skills with fun utility, plus hes the cool white boomer
so rafa is just absuing a bug that will get fixedvexs minions are shit and the bleed build is abusing a bug that will get fixedharlowe is opand amon lmao
>>540574894>so rafa is just absuing a bug that will get fixedThe only bugs I've run in to on Rafa are passive skills that don't work
>>540573206Matchmaking for older games is dead. Also has some dumb implementation quirks like using the Steam download region for your matchmaking region so if you want to play at 3am burger time in Louisiana, you will only get people queuing at 3am in Louisiana (aka. almost none). Probably going to be the same with BL4.Also for a game like this, people cheat relentlessly and then go fuck with other people's games online so most people play strictly solo offline or only with friends. So the "beat the game first solo" bit is correct in that you don't want randoms to fuck with your quest progress on your first time.
>>540575736Not the person you were responding to, but I love hearing about all the issues people have with these games. Sort of provides a road map on what hazards to avoid when you're developing something.

I jsut cant into harlowe her VA is obnoxious her legs are 3 times the size of her head

Is Ava even mentioned in BL4 lmao
>>540579170In an Amara echo log
>>540573989Would be cool to have a poison themed vault hunter.
Borderlands 4 kinda feels like half a story. It's a bridge between the ending of BL3 and whatever happens next, not its own standalone thing. It especially feels this way with Arjay who is just kind of chilling in the background the whole time. Handing the players a giant mcguffin at the end just feels like such blatant sequelbait it leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
>>540579401hope you bought the season pass! 2 new VH coming up! more areas!
>>540579401Replaying the whole "resistance topples a tyrant" plotline 4 times doesn't help either
>>540579401I think it's mostly just cause it comes completely out of nowhere. We don't get a single hint as to what the vault actually contains. Like yeah the Timekeeper's name kinda implies that the vault has something to do with time but that's it. No Eridian tablet talking about how this is the most important vault in the entire universe or something.
>>540575965Some of the issues are just people being shitheads.Like with the cheating issue, the games are p2p (peer-to-peer) so you can play offline and over LAN and shit, and that means you get full access to the save file. Once somebody makes a save editor, any loser can cheat themselves shit 24/7. That's fine and all, you do whatever you want in your single-player PvE game, but then people go online and start dumping cheated guns in people's lobbies "as a favour" because they need to feel good about their cheating, and then run around with speedhacks and blowing up enemies with infinite damage guns, the game's spaghetti code will not have a good day.The matchmaking stuff is Gearbox being retarded though. They looked at the normal approach and said "Nah, I can do worse" and then fucked it up hard for BL2.

>>540579958Im sorry WHAT? THeyre announcing a new VH today? but were not gettingthat shit for 4+ months?
>>540533751whats the shotgun only build
>>540579916This adds into why I think there must be a better way to handle game systems for looter shooters. The whole level system opens you up to all that. So I'd love to come up with something that maintains the drive and the progression, but doesn't get stupid.
Amon ordnance build, this shit is insane. Infinite ammo with all heavy ordnance, boosted damage with them, at least 2 guaranteed DoTs via elements from skills with them, one of which (cryo) is a fuckload of damage, you don't have to worry about hitting weak spots to maximize damage (and you will crit anyways with normal damage), you have 2 (3 with the super soldier shield) ways of actively healing shields and building massive overshields as you do damage (with infinite ammo if you forgot), and because they have huge AOE, they all proc kill skills easily and easily hit 2 or more enemies at a time, and require minimal aim to clip enemies with splash (which is full) damagesome normal weapons like the wombo combo assault rifle are highly regarded. because it shoots a missile from the underbarrel automatically at intervals. well, imagine shooting a missile salvo that fire 2 missiles at a time at a faster fire rate than any assault rifle, never having to reload, and with explosions 10 times as big as the singular wombo combo missile. how can assault rifles compare? smgs? shotguns? lining up sniper rifle headshots one by one? the fucking trouble pet build by vex? grenades with one stationary explosion?i hate to talk or think about nerfs, and yeah an ordnance build should heavily reward ordnance use, but this is bonkers. everything in the game gets deleted in seconds. with basically every heavy ordnance weapon in your inventory. feels way too overtuned if your damage is literally incomparable to any other weapon class or vault hunter, and you're immortal as long as you're holding down the trigger.
>>540580021well you get the one this quarter at least
>>540581573Hell Eddit
>>540537902I knew about it exactly. That's why I said bandit guns specifically, because at max stacks bandit guns have a 1000 bullets in a magazine and more.
>inventory 70/70>bank 500/500goddamn it. it's all my fault for letting it get this bad, but this is gonna be annoying as shit to sort out. this is from one character only, albeit saving class mods, firmware items, and enhancements mainly, along with decent leveling gear for when i decide to play the other 3 vault hunters. and i am keeping a good number of legendaries (that are level 50 for the most part) too. so for the most part, gear that ultimately falls under the 'may be useful' category. tough to filter out, but i'll probably start with firmwares. i just collected them willy nilly, thinking i'd rather have them to make builds later than not, but a lot of the firmware sets are dogshit. lifeblood, jacked, etc. i'm all for interesting utility items and sets in RPGs, but when straight up damage item sets like deadeye exist, even if you want to roleplay with a gimmicky hyperion build, it's still just straight up dogshit in comparison to damage.
>>540585161what build u playn
>>540585161rafa with blades
>>540585161amon with axes
>>540585161vex with sex
so?
>>540494862>put 20 specialist points into reload speed>put one single enhancement on that increases reload speed by over 20% >you've now got a gun that reloads in half the timeyou're welcome based retard
>>540497581>and add money sink things like slot machinei agree with this, they should never have removed slot machines. I spent hours just watching movies and slotting it up in previous games
>>540586572it's a black man in a crow feather pimp suit that smacks women and summons hoes to fight for him
>it's a black manyes
>>540585161>this is from one character only,wait until you find out that the bank SDUs dont transfer to new characters so right off the bat on new characters you cant use your bank until you grind out enough ppoints to unlock all the bank tabs, and enjoy having low ammo count at level 30 so you have to weigh storage space or actually firing your guns
>>540523390I tried this and don't like it.
>>540589287yes you do
>finally find legendary enhancement for the gun I want to use>status effect chance>equip speedabsolutely, unequivocally bricked.
Anyone here actually playing the black dei chick
so harlowes red and green trees are good yeah?
>>540589543No actually, it looks fine for the characters but the environment is ugly with it
>>540590057It's actually sharper
>>540589287Yeah the enviorments look way worse. Not worth it
>>540590185It looks better without the hideous outline
so are bl4 threads not allowed on v anymore?
>VaccinatedThey couldn't help themselves huh
>>540591347vaxx status?
several people have killed splashdown over 1000 times and not got a phosphene drop. I wonder what the actual coded percentage is for it to drop. I must have killed axemaul 500 times by now and I have no hopes of ever finding one. have any of you found a phosphene yet?
>>540592509Yeah I got this after like 5 times farming Vile Experiments and Ted. Didn't know I got so lucky lmao. It's the Seventh Sense
>>540592509nop
>>540592723very nice, congrats.I can't believe theres a challenge to get all 69 phosphene variants. that seems like masochism to attempt without cheating.
>>540592841Even more so considering challenges are character specific

>>540588158Another summoner. We desperately need it. Make him an albino amputee midget and he's perfect for the game.

>>540595451You can't just heckin' ask that
>>5405925093 on one character and one or two on another, and yes the achievement is character based and not shared.
>>540595883Despite its performance, third still remains unplayable dog burp.
>>540596904Meme gayer than your dad
>>540595883probably an unpopular opinion, but 4 looks like ass graphics wise, doesn't have the charm of 2 or even 3
>>540597152Wonderlands was a mistake
Are enhancements the rarest legendaries? I never had one
>>540547445Vladof double barrel assault rifles go out of ammo really fast and being a Vladof enjoyer kind of sucks considering I have to look for ammo from time to time.
>>540597223And yet its better than 4.
>>540597730I really hope they give us more ammo SUD slots. There is no real reason to let us have so few ammo. There is a really cool gun I have that has the exact problem you described. There are guns with the same DPS that just shoot slower so they don't have this problem. So really, why should I endure this only because I want to use a rapid fire gun
>>540597705I have a couple but definitely, especially since they have no dedicated drop source to target farm.
Just died by the last projectile 0.01 seconds after the boss died. Nice
The cutscenes are so boring I had to watch a quick tiktok video in between
>>540599340>tiktokDegenerate. That is prime 4chan shitposting time you wasted.
>reload after killing boss>gun gets thrown>get one shot by it while looking at loot
>>540537902DLC weapons like pimpernel or the grog nozzle harold norfleet and many others in dragon keep almost alone with all the OPs just made the game completely unbalanced still.However that did not stop me from dropping nearly 500 hours into the game just to farm elements of most of the weapons or even near perfect pieces without having a random hacker drop said perfect weapons
>>540597152It looks like the same shit but now it's in a randomly generated incoherent UE5slop open world, it's not about graphics but hand made level design which 4 has almost none of, you can tell the difference during certain segments of the game that feel more like the old ones.
>>540592509this just sounds like usual borderlands farming
>>540601045>randomly generated incoherent UE5slop open worldhuh maybe that is what feels off
>>540578746Whats the bug? Jacobs is the only good feeling guns right now and if its all from a bug then this game needs some serious balance adjustments.
>>540603127crit abuse from jakobs weapons
>>540603225sounds like bl3 kings queens and rowan's call again, not only strong for this game but bugged too
When's that VH teaser happening lads?
>>540603619Release is in minimum 4+ months anon
do sticky bomb guns increase the damage of firepot stickies when they explode?not like firepot needs the boost im just curious and i cant get a sticky gun to drop to save my life
i ama brainlet when it comes to figuring this kind of build shit outwhats the go to for a brainlet like me
>>540603225so is it a "bug", like a flaw in the code, or is it "abuse", something you think is overtuned?
>>540604030Abuse just like vexs bleed build
>>540604067agreed that bleeds procing more bleeds needs to be fixed, but letting them crit is fine. theres a skill in the blue tree and the specialization tree that allow/buff them so that is intentional.
bleed should not outdamage a flame dot on fleshfull stopmake status damage great again
Do i HAVE to play harlowe for all elemental builds?
>>540604067So its not a bug and just the knife being very good got it. That doesn't need to be fixed its working as intended.
>>540604430what bleed has going for it is that it can dip into damage from>gun damage and gun crit damage from multiple sources (coms, specialization tree)>kinetic damage from multiple sources (skills, coms)>skill damage and skill damage crit/chance from multiple sources (coms, specialization tree)>status effect damage from multiple sources (coms, specialization tree)>action skill damage from incarnateand it can go to 20 stacks, and i'm sure i'm missing something. the trade off is that stacks only last for 2 hits and aren't guaranteed on a crit, but with how much lead many weapons can throw per second it might as well be guaranteed lol.
Yes I did let the little gay retard fall into the vault of lava and I don't regret it
>>540605167meanwhile my 12% chance fire smg with bonus application chance will take an entire mag for one application of fire damage and it ticks for 1/50th of bleed
>>540604541Not at all, she just has a huge elemental focus in her class trees. Amon also has some elemental buffs in his trees as do Rafa and Vex.
>>540605352But she does the most amount of ele damage right
>>540603974just check youtube for a build
>>540605305point is that all of that interaction takes skills, gear, and specialization levels to put together. your fire smg may not be doing a lot of damage on its own but that is just the gun damage. what other skill and gear interactions are you building around it? is it procing a skill for more damage for you, or reducing action skill cooldown or something?
>>540605484see, i did this and went into choice paralysis
>>540605468She has bonuses to elemental and she can be played that way but she also be played perfectly fine with just kinetic weapons. Skill and class coms open up a lot of different ways to play all of the classes.
>>540604253>agreed that bleeds procing more bleedsIs that how it works from the get-go or do I need something else?
>>540605167knew i forgot something add in firmware. you can get more gun and crit damage with firmware. high caliber gives your bullets penetration so you can fire a dullahan into a group of psychos and it'll pass through each of them potentially procing ricochets from eat crit. lots of nutty interactions people are finding and that is why these games are great. let us figure some interaction out that lets us live that powerfantasy.
>>540605981right now its the jakobs knife with the penetrator augment that makes all hits crit for 5 seconds, its making every bullet crit which are procing bleeds which are critting which are procing more bleeds. we probably wouldn't have seen the bleed crits procing more bleeds bug if the knife didn't force the interaction, at least not for a while. when its fixed vex bleeds will still be strong but not stupid instantly deleting everything strong. there are other builds for that like the bloodshot build.
Its not gonan get nerfed soon, gearbox said they rather want to buff underperforming skills
>peacefully drive past 3 warhorn rider gang members>they shoot up my ebike and it explodes>throw black hole knives at them>the warhorns are getting Twistered while the riders are still shooting at me, unaffected by the black hole>they down me because i am laughing too hardthis game, man
Apologize
>>540606157The gun damage from firmware is wasted potential when you have all those crazy interactions that directly tie into manufacturer enhancements. I know that wasn't the point you were making but I hope more people aren't just stacking miniscule amounts of damage bonuses when there's cooler options that will outperform it or at least create new sources of damage output that makes shooting guns less vanilla.
>>540605981should probably explain the god damned mechanic, its early and i haven't had coffee yet. Vex's green tree has:>leeching attunement - attunes you kinetic, increases lifesteal and reloadattunement is just whatever element weapon you were holding, point is that kinetic attunement is now affected by skills and skill damage increses.>bloodletter - critical hits has chance to cause kinetic bleed, considered a status effect this is the bleed damage, and it ties status effect damage to our kinetic damage. this also allows our skills to critical hit. this includes the extra damage from kinetic attunement/bleed/other elemental damage added from the other trees/etc.>keen mind - chance for skill damage to crit from any hitthis lets you stack bleed faster
>>540607204I didn't know that taking attunement skills passively added all those skill bonuses to your gun damage
>>540606453Fuck I think I had one of those but sold it.>>540607204Thanks for the detailed explanation anon.>keen mindI never used that skill because I thought skill damage only refers to action skill damage... alright, now this skill looks good
>>540608047sl0p
>>540607802>I never used that skill because I thought skill damage only refers to action skill damageall action skills are also considered skills so they can double dip from the two sources of damage increase, but not all skills scale with action skill damage increases. pic related is me.
>>540606659If they nerf anything I use I uninstall
>>540607698part of why rainbow vomit is so powerful on vex. it does the 3 elements of damage but it is considered a kinetic jakobs weapon as far as the game considers it for damage scaling.
>>540608905Are you sure leeching attunement actually scales with skill damage or inherits skill passives? I just respec'd by only taking leeching attunement, shot a training dummy for a bit, then I took Ars Arcana which should be a 40% damage increase but it's the same damage. Then I took keen mind and shot it for about 2 minutes and I didn't crit once.
>>540608848Noooo please don't stop playing our game after you already gave us 70 dollars for it!!!!
Just got my first Hot Slugger. This gun is ridiculous lmao
One way they could make alts a little less tedious would be to add sdu rewards to the challenges like weapon manufacturer ones. Get some jakobs crits and get some SDU points, burn some dudes get some points, etc.
>>540613929>implying we go down
Is Rafa gay?
>>540613929Sorry I don't play him. Rafabros, you can do it without me right?
>>540613929Uh oh, I haven't even created a Rafa yet.
>>54061392920 seconds winds? I can do that solo in an hour tops
beedeo gam
>>540614589He's straight and racist and misogynistic
>>54061627620 million as a community
>>540601045Yeah I definitely feel this. In more than half the missions im always asking "where the fuck do I go" and have to use the echo guideline just to see where the next objective is. The lack of any real level design is pretty stark.
It's kinda crazy just how few characters there actually are in BL4 despite it being this grand open world. Compared to BL2 and BL3, there is like... half the roster. The world feels so empty, why am I only ever interacting with one or two people?
>>540620471The "grand open world" actually leads to there being fewer locations. In 2 and 3, you encountered a new handful of characters whenever you went to a new zone or planet. But because there's essentially only 3 different hubs in 4, you only meet 3 handfuls of people

yea
>>540626394Really? why
>>540626352Do you have the bike yet? You get it pretty early
>>540624909Guy is so fucking annoying to farm. I can easily nuke him in less than 5 seconds, but if I do all the loot drops into the bottomless pit. So you spend most of the time waiting for him to fly away from the fucking pit and hope to god that he doesn't juke back at the end or launch everything tumbling down the hole. He dropped another legendary down the pit but I think it was just a boomslang.
>>540626445No just doing sidemissions, contracts and exploring the very first area, south side
>>540625923it should, but it doesnt.
>>540626825You do you, I reckon, but if you feel like you want to be moving faster, it sounds like you're about 5 minutes away from unlocking the bike if you pursue the campaign
PSA SET THIS TO OFF UNDER ACCESSIBILITY
any config mods to disable lumen completely?
>>540627069What does it do?
>>540627579When you grapple the camera makes you look in the direction you are swinging. Great when you want to look that way but sucks when you need to make a followup jump or grapple. Turning it off lets you swing your camera around while grappling.

>>540628342Oh cool I never thought it was something bad but now that I know you can turn it off it comes across as a mild inconvenience, will turn it off

>>540627292Disabling it will make the game look like ass.

>crosshair color bug
are harlowe and vex just THAT much better than the other 2?
>queue up for big encore or wildcard>join somebody who is not doing the thing i queued up forthis truly is a single player game, huh? unless you have friends who you're playing through every second of the campaign with. public matchmaking is unusable and replaying missions is torture.
>>540613929>Remember goy, we are watching you and masturbating oooyyyyy
>>540629249harlow just has acess to the best damage types for free, vex is just cheating
>>540629623How does weekly big encore work in multiplayer? Does only one have to pay for it and do both of you get different loot?
>>540629817couldnt tell you. ive tried several times to queue for it and its every single time its just someone dicking around in the open world or farming a completely different boss
>>540629794so playing rafa is basically just being inferior?? q.q
>>540630026he can still cheese with amp damage and the crit knife. he just doesn't have the elemental variety of harlow
>>540630026rafa can still be good. the OP vex thing everyone is talking about is a bug that will eventually get fixed, and she'll still be good without it. its really just amon who is comparatively mid to the others.
>>540630232>>540630537hmm i gave harlow a try, but i just can't stand the voice and the hideous legs while sliding
>>540630921those are also the exact reasons i will never play her lol

>>540631080yeah, seems like she is really powerful, but god damn i can not get over those short fat legs and the pesky voice and tone
>>540631884Then you get to hear Rafa talking in spanglish, or Amon talk about his dead boyfriend from his polycule.
I miss borderlands having music

So it won't let me teleport to sol on a new alt, and the elevator up to the second level of his fortress (where Rush drives the missile) won't activate.

Poking back into Borderlands 2, I am astounded by how absolutely ass all the gunplay feels.
>>540636782>>540636824Oh, yeah..i'm retarde lol
>>540637147This triggers me as well especially when it's from naturally kiting something and you just inadvertently back out of it.
>>540636708Okay thanks that's bizarre

Having fun with rafa, but his ultimate is super extremely weak... how do i fix this? Inb4 you can'tHarlowe re-roll then?
>>540637662it always felt bad. bl1 has better gunplay.
>>540637802what pisses me off is when you get bumped out of the stage because of the random gravity orbs that spawn when you kill enemies, ive been gliding around and then get sucked out by one of those things before
>>540638573Again, I think with Borderlands across the board, what causes the gunplay issue is the core gameplay itself. Because you need to focus on headshots and fish for them, you're inherently slowed down. And so you never get John Woo gun battles. You get pecking.
>>540637662smgs are the only guns that feel even remotely good to use in bl2 because of how bad the accuracy is on everything
>>540637967>go fuck yourselfI will.
>>540639205
is Vex's "+3 to max Kill Skill stacks" ability supposed to work on her Witchy Trigger Finger augment? Because that's what it seems to he doing and +90% to all my damage on top of what i'm already getting from everything else seems pretty crazy
wew
>>540638491What level are you? You feel stronger as you level and get more points into your skills and better gear, then class mods/legendary class mods can completely change how you play.
>Update game>Supposed performance enhancements>Running at 30 FPS farming Dropzone nowwtf happened my PC was weak but staying at 45-50 range without stuttering, now even after turning settings lower it runs awful

>>54064267114 currently
>>540643982whence?
>>540643982OH SH>release Q1 2026.........but could be sick, whats under "read more"
>>540645051>>540644360
>>540645089404 more days till we find out more!
Okay I'm level 39 and finished the game, should I level up by doing all the side quests? Do the rewards for them change if I do them at 50?
>>540643982C4SH M0N3Y
>>540645460Side quests are locked when you accept them. So yeah if you have them on the map leave them be until 50.You can farm the radiant quests you can grab from the house/faction base safezones to level up easily. Feel free to open the lootboxes you get there too because they're also locked to whatever level you were when you accepted the quest
>>540644972You haven't gotten out of the first tier of a skill tree yet, that and you haven't started to get more parts or better rolled guns. What build you running? Red tree is good for leveling since your canons will be able to shred groups and bosses until you can get more skills going.
>>540638491Rafa's red ultimate is easy mode though I know it only truly gets silly once you unlock rockets + get a class mod that has action skill duration + you opt into the skill that increases action skill duration on kill + critical.As early as level 22 my ultimate was lasting over 2 minutes
>>540645940>Side quests are locked when you accept them. So yeah if you have them on the map leave them be until 50.So I should save them until 50 so I'm opening level 50 reward boxes? I'll clear the three I've already accepted and then farm contracts I guess
>>540645460Make doing the mission from Lilith a priority as it will unlock UVHM and the specialization skill tree and let you start accruing xp for it. After that you can stay in normal mode to do quests and get some gear or go into UVHM 1 and start farming vile bounties from safehouses for lots of xp. I recently leveled a Harlowe from 30 to 50, took about 6 hours with me farming some gear before I took on the bounties.
>finally get class mod i want>completely wrong rolls
>>540646419I did part of that and have a spec point but haven't used it yet. I think I'm oriented now thanks anons
>>540646746Also no sense to be farming gear in UVHM, gearbox has said that the increased drop rates in higher UVHM modes is parts and firmware on drops and not an increase in legendary drop rates. UVHM is 150% increased health, no sense farming bosses there until you have some 50 gear.

Why does this one Whiskey Foxtrot have a different Legendary effect from the others I've farmed?
>>540653181YesShe's not as annoying as I expected but cute is pushing it
>>540655146Luck o' the draw
>>540655381Right, but I've seen 5 and 4 of them had Scrap Cannon. I thought the "part" with the star was supposed to be the defining part of Legendaries?
>>540655601Well this one has two

Oh shit my first glowy boi
are there any important side quests that give special weapons or gear that you want to save until you're 50 except that one legendary vendor quest? Seems like I haven't heard of any
>>540659963There are a good amount of side quests that gate certain boss farm locations.
>>540659963Check the google doc in the OP, it has all the gate quests listed

thoughts on the prince harming smg? i have one in the legendary vending machine at the end of the quest, it's>radioactive>the pamplemousse legendary trait>jakobs accessory>atlas tracker dart underbarrel>cov magthe damage looks to be subpar though, lower rolls for rate of fire and damage than i can see in other ones online. do you think the jakobs/atlas/cov mag are unique or benefit from enhancements enough that they'd be worth it? i don't know any of their enhancements at the top of my head besides the ricocheting off non crit hits for jakobs.
randy's looking good
Is borderlands in any way relevant in japan?They sure don't seem like they try to appeal to them
>>540671947https://www.twitch.tv/tokyogameshow6
>>540673919thtey love the shootan
>>540673919Kind of never hear about it from Japan which is weird because Japan loves console games like Borderlands.
i hope randy breaks out his acoustic guitar
Where is the vault pass? Will they drop it in the next 30 minutes?
The way he says those short sentences in this monotone voice makes it sound like straight up propaganda kek>you love borderlands 4>borderlands 4 is the best game yet>it has the best world of them all
>>540674756lmao it really does
great trailer, guys
Bro, is that it
>>540674756he's not wrong though
Rosebros?!? WTF IS THIS IT'S JUST A ROBOT GUY
that was really anticlimacticrandy's awkwardness isn't helping either
>>540674958This is no place for a horse.
>>540674958>we want the Oddworld audience
>>540675030Fucking kek, I thought the same thing.
How many people are in the audience? I think I've heard that Japanese tend to be quiet even on these events but there was only like 1 guy clapping.
Where is the new in-game content RANDY!
>Randy making it about himself
Here's a song I wrote about poker...
>>540675173Japanese people are ridiculously respectful. Even crowds for stuff like NJPW only make any noise whenever an impressive spot happens.
You can hear the interpreter starting to get uncomfortable
Randy can't go 5 seconds without talking about his "magic tricks"
"I WILL SHOW THE ANIMATOR.... HOW MY GRIP WORKS."
Why the fuck is this man doing a presentation about himself playing poker?
>>540675278They don't make noise at NJPW because it's a dead promotion.
Oh wow he turned that King into a King
I wonder if worker robots becoming sentient is a side effect of something elseFirst Fl4k, now C4sh?Similar names too
"Mad Melly"
Randy is gonna voice the bot isn't he?
Vex is 100% gonna replace Moxxi in future games btw
>>540675753Good I love her
I like how Sirens are supposed to be super special chosen ones that there's so few of then every time a game comes out a new one pops up
Vex is CUTE

>>540675920>6 sirens in existence>4 games with playable sirensI don't see the problem
>>540675943When her VA showed up even before she announced who she was I thought she's giving me Vex vibes
>>540675920That's part of the lore too: they're drawn to one another and also eridium"There can only be 6" is why there's been a limited number of sirens instead of dozens
>>540676550>they're drawn to one another and also eridiumOh so that's what Crazy Earl is doing with all the Eridium we get for him. He wants to build his own Siren harem
OH SHIT
okay based Randy lmao

someone give me a fun legendary to go for, ive been using rainbow vomit for too long
What do I do if I finished the uvhm 1 mission lilith gave me but it didn't complete? It's just stuck but I still have uvhm 1 unlocked.
>>540678975Acey MayIt's cute and shoots hearts
So i beat the game on my first character and while I know I can just re-play all the missions in order on my other characters I'm still thinking it might just flat out be worth starting over at level 1 and going through it at a more natural progression rather than start at 30, not really fully understand how the character plays and whatnot... I dunno what's /vg/'s thoughts on starting fresh on alts over doing a level 30 start? Am i just overthinking?
>>540494195Do the different characters "actually" have different lines or is each line more or less scripted across all of them and they just say it slightly differently?
why should i play Bl4 instead of BL1 as Roland
>>540676550I have a few problems with that>Only 6 sirens, with a secret 7th no one should look for>Nyriad seals her powers away and also says she is not the 7th siren>There are still 6 known sirens at a timeI know there's a "phase pool" of powers in the alternate dimension that are rotated around, but you'd need a siren dying literally the moment Tyrene was conceived in the vault where Nyriads powers were stored, let alone the luck of actually getting Phase Leech out of the pool
>>540679928pretty sure the entire quest dialogue is different for everyone involved in the quest
>>540679928Some are actually different, most are different characterizations of the same line
>>540680106just don't think about it bro haha jeez
>>540680365I know they are making it up as they go along but these are such trivial things, especially since you'd need the "being a siren" to not get trapped by a vault but the actual siren powers were?
i'm gonna do it i swear to god
>>540680541things were at least acceptable in 1 and 2- i actually haven't followed any of the siren lore 3 onwards because it starting feeling like more of an asspull than anything substantial
>>540680681Go aheadIf you ignore the writing it's just with better level design
>>540483826You guys .. are playing 4 on high settings and newer tech, right?You're not making Randy angry by complaining while using old tech like 1080ti, correct?
>>540680681if you want to "ignore the writing" like the other anon said, you'll want the dialogue skipper and animation speed up
>>540680681i mean at the end of it all its pretty decent now, just get the dialogue muter mod
>>540680681>>540680771I had a fucking stroke or something I guess. It's BL4 with better level design is what I meant to say
>>540680714It's just lame they say there's a pool of powers yet every siren death so far has someone get the same powers, with the exception of maybe when Tyrene died
The whole Siren thing is why I'm hesitant to introduce space magic in the whole side thing I've been slowly making progress on. Considered just having kinesis ala Dead Space where it's lamp-shaded via technological explanations, but that's sort of limited as far as doing rule of cool stuff.
>>540681441You just shouldn't set hard boundaries on stuff like that in a story since in the end it only limits the story itself and the way you as a creator can use it
>>540679132Is it still in your mission log? I think I saw someone on reddit mentioning your problem but also think he didn't manage to fix it...
>>540680789i have a 4080 and barely hovering above 60 FPS at 1440p DLSS balanced
>>540674958Did they show a trailer?
>>540682831Not really. There was a short animation where he walked like 5 steps, that's it.
>>540682831they showed BADASS real-time footage of randy's magic tricks which is even better
Shit was so c4sh.
>>540682078Mein condolences
>>540682972>damage x7Okay but what times 7?
>>540682883>>540682937Insane. So what was their time at the games show all about?
they showed a jpeg of the new vault hunter
>>540683553Talking about Randy's magic tricks and how great BL4 is. Then they had 4 people play the game for some time
Thoughts on C4SH?
>>540684367He has a cool design and sounds alot like Claptrap with the rng mechanics. I loved playing Claptrap in tps, so im kinda hyped
>>540684367https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_vNZuM9vSR8
>>540674958>actually great design Thanks Randy
>>540684367I love edgy robots I absolutely love his design
>>540684367Should have been a woman
>>540675571Theoretically, an AI that is smart enough + has the freedom to think outside the box could accidentally ask itself and analyse existential questions that would lead it to assert independence and sentience. Whether or not people will respect it as a real entity will depend on how much independent thought they're capable of. If they're a slave to their programming and still act like 90% a bot even if they're truly sentient, then nobody will respect them and probably kill them off with a factory reset before they get a chance to improve.That's also the basis for Claptrap's robo-revolution. He became too smart for his own britches.And before anybody asks, no, neural nets and LLM-types aren't capable of doing the same because they don't do any real logical thinking. They're just probability grids of words or pixels or whatever strung together that spit out random shit until the prompter likes what they got. Can't get real free will or sapience out of that. The capability inherently doesn't exist. Spoilered because it's getting off-topic and I'm going to sleep now.Of course, all this can be thrown out the window by Randy reading your post and going THIS IS TOTALLY HOW IT WAS ALL ALONG for another stupid fucking retcon because he is also a bot who isn't capable of original thought.
shield boi my beloved
>>540684125did they encounter any of the horrendous bugs where quests wont progress and chests wont open after an area load and such
i think the new vault hunter looks kind of dumb
So how bad is the new VH gonna be with its rando skills
>>540689995They only drove around the fade fields HQ and fought some encounters. Then they sent them directly to the ripper queen boss
morning
Any tips for endgame? I'm getting to the end of the story shortly after the timekeeper posseses you for the second time and holy shit the enemies are way outleveling me. They don't even have a number anymore, just a red triangle with an exclamation mark in the middle. I'm level 34 atm running rafa on moxsy's leveling build for him. I've got decent gear but I'm still getting my ass handed to me hard on the way into timekeepers vault in ascension.

When I get a character mod with a skill at the end of another tree, do I benefit from it? or do I have to invest in it?
Taking a break from heartpiercer vex while I clean up the sideactivities/quest/etc... Thinking of shifting over to a blue reaper build with 3 concepts I have in mind. Middle to get access to the meme knife and reaper + middle tree of green for mortal terror and bleed, Middle and right tree of blue to just get minion as strong as I can with the double augment capstone, or right tree for double augment + middle green for mortal terror + bleed. I'm kinda assuming that I can transfer a lot my skill damage/crit stuff over to my minons and I'll just slap teen witch on as an interim to the dedicated summoning class com

Harlowe is just busted all round, Vex is 2nd, Rafa is 3rd with a small gap and after a gigantic gap its the other guy
>>540697667No problem, I think I kept everything that NVIDIA "optimized" for me and just turned off Frame Gen

Aight I'm finally in the the final act fighting through the city and I have been barely hanging on. I'm finally level 30 but I did most of it under that and everything since the Zadra lab checkpoint leading to the dead center of the city required very careful playing including a lot of snipe cheating. Got to the final segment running up the staircase before the load screen to the fast travel point and I was so our gunned I just ran through them so I could get the fast travel marker and stop playing didn't want to turn the game off and redo all that shit but goddamn I got filtered. I assume if I was lvl 34 it'd be less insane but I'm not so sure, feels like skill tree finally matters but I pivoted to corrosive Vex and it still isn't saving my ass
>>540698591Shit up.
>cant link twitch with shift accountAHHHHHHHHH
>>540684367Probably my favorite of the 5 including him in design. Action skill is crucial though
>>540698853Same for me, tried unlinking and relinking so many times. Also not just recently, I tried it since the event started, so it's an ongoing issue
>>540698976i can unlink it, but there's always an error clicking on "activation link" oh weeeeell

>>540699132There's literally 2 females, 1 male, and 1 male robot. The original game had 3 males and 1 female. Quit simping loser we need a better male character to pick
