MY CONFERENCE CALL + BEE IS READY.

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #301 on:** October 11, 2012, 12:14:46 PM »

deathtrap is useful in boss fights- but dies faster than a turret and is trickier about drawing aggro- you also cant retrieve it early to reduce cooldown- so if you pop it for a small fight you could be wasting it a bit. You also have no control over its path- and it currently bugs out on a stinging cactus if hit by its charge. The skills, while horrible MLP references, sound cool- so i'll continue playing as this character parallel w/axton

What's the consensus with golden keys? Wait til you are level 50?

MrAngryFace · « **Reply #306 on:** October 12, 2012, 11:27:04 AM »

The gun I got with my key at like level 8 or whatever was good until level 19-20 iirc, so its not a waste. I didnt know about the rarity when I used it thanks to TORCHLIGHT II MAKING ME THINK GoLDEN KEYS ARE FALLin froM THE SKYYYYYYY

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #307 on:** October 12, 2012, 12:26:05 PM »

Yeah it's more a luck of the draw. I've used golden keys and gotten items that last 10 levels above their level requirements and I've also gotten crap before that was just equal to the stuff I was already using.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #308 on:** October 12, 2012, 12:51:51 PM »

I think Michael is very useful early in the game, but my experience was the quality of his items dropped at around mid-game. I think he is also limited to blues where as the chest can give purples.

For those that don't know the slot machines give an orange for borderlands borderlands borderlands symbol but that's really rare. I've gotten it one time in hundreds of attempts.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #309 on:** October 12, 2012, 01:48:52 PM »

I know the one in Moxxi's Bar won't give you jack nothing. Out of it, I've gotten one orange, maybe two purples, five blues, and about 10,000 greens and whites. Oh yeah, and about 100 of every skin. It loves giving you those skins.

Yeah its always a bit weird to have a currency for an upgrade system you can easily max out.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #312 on:** October 12, 2012, 02:54:20 PM »

I bought all the upgrades before I even started TVHM, but yet Tera still drops like a dozen eridium. It would have been nice if they had more unlocks for the second play through.

I listened to one. Was he trying to get some guns out of you?

I have to teach not to just join people's games. Sorry about that.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #324 on:** October 15, 2012, 04:48:37 PM »

Yeah? Been hearing nothing but negatives about Mechromancer.

I know from the last game that everyone hated the Siren until they realized she was beyond overpowered.

demi · « **Reply #327 on:** October 16, 2012, 09:22:34 AM »

Siren [phaselock best all best]
Assassin [ninjas with one liners awesome cool]
Mechromancer [this can go either way since its either "easy mode" or "hard mode" according to Devs]
Commando [boring, but with a turret]
Gunzerker [boring]

benjipwns · « **Reply #328 on:** October 16, 2012, 09:25:20 AM »

demi, what's your class rankings from the first game?

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #329 on:** October 16, 2012, 09:25:50 AM »

My order would be closer to demi's. I just don't like the Gunzerker because he doesn't get powerful until way late in the trees for me.

Joe Molotov · « **Reply #330 on:** October 16, 2012, 09:34:17 AM »

Sirens are awesome. I spec'd mine to have Ruin from the Cataclysm tree and Converge from the Motion tree so that multiple enemies are pulled towards my phaselock that simultaneously slags, corrodes, and electrocutes them (plus fire from Helios).

Really?

I did Mordecai first run, but then Siren and Brick.

Siren was kinda cheating though.

benjipwns · « **Reply #333 on:** October 16, 2012, 10:27:37 AM »

I think I didn't bother with bloodwing because of confusion over his status with the patches.

Of course I intended to beat the game with every class at one point.

And then some co-ops from the start.

And now I have the last part of Claptrap's to beat with a Siren and yet...

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #334 on:** October 16, 2012, 10:34:51 AM »

gunzerker is awesome if you spec it right, i am basically a bullet and health regenerating machine now when i click gunzerk, i cut through badass loaders like butter

mechromancer's just goofy fun, i laugh every time i hear some bandit scream offscreen and see xp pop up

i don't like assassin because his skill suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks at the beginning of the game

siren isn't that great at the beginning, either, phaselock is fine but when you have a group of bad guys charging you it's hard to focus on just one

commando is great for shifting aggro away, and that's about it - his dialogue kinda sucks

demi · « **Reply #335 on:** October 16, 2012, 10:39:54 AM »

I play support and prefer to snipe from afar, so I like Zero's hide ability, and Siren's Phaselock keeps an enemy in place for me as a pop some heads.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #336 on:** October 16, 2012, 10:41:48 AM »

yeah, i am more of a "charge in" kind of player (although i do tend to use sniper rifles quite a bit since i seem to be getting the best weapon drops in that category)

benjipwns · « **Reply #337 on:** October 16, 2012, 10:51:33 AM »

I just sniped with the Siren in the first game.

I asked a stupid question here, malformed due to being under the kosh. I wanted an idea of what gear you guys used, I'm playing through vault hunter mode now to get the levels and loot needed.

Rankings:
Borderlands 2
1) Siren
2) Mechro
3) Assassin
4) Commando
5) Gunzerker

Borderlands 1

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #343 on:** October 21, 2012, 10:14:47 AM »

Finally will get a character up to 50 today. Also beat the DLC. It was okay. Not as good or well written as the main game but decent for 10 bucks or whatever it costs with the season pass.

Momo · « **Reply #344 on:** October 21, 2012, 03:58:51 PM »

Got my mechro and assassin up to 42 each today. Should be done with all the base game content this week then I'll hit the DLC.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #345 on:** October 21, 2012, 08:52:43 PM »

Hit 50 with my commando. Time to farm until the next DLC that raises the level cap.

Probably will also hit 50 with a siren at some point. She's currently at 39.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #346 on:** October 22, 2012, 05:40:31 PM »

lulz. I saw someone on my friends list who was a level 72 which I thought was a bit odd. So I asked him how he did it since I know he doesn't have a modded xbox.

Apparently pretty easily.

Gearbox Probably should have had server side gear for online matchmaking although I'm sure they will eventually try to break the mods.

Great Rumbler · « **Reply #347 on:** October 22, 2012, 05:44:24 PM »

I hope they never fix that stuff.

Stoney Mason · « **Reply #348 on:** October 22, 2012, 05:46:36 PM »

I think that stuff is fine for offline play. Do what you want on your offline profile or on your own xbox. Who cares kinda thing. I don't think it should be that way for online play for lots of reasons. Not to mention I think a lot of people are gonna end up getting banned for this stuff whether that is right or wrong.

Eel O'Brian · « **Reply #349 on:** October 27, 2012, 12:04:49 PM »

Man, this game is getting pretty rough for me at level 31. I'm getting shitty drops (still using weapons from the leveled to the early 20s because I'm not finding anything better), and that chest in sanctuary just keeps giving me doodoo shields.

They should label it that with one of those distinguished mentally-challenged fellow bandit signs

<---- DOODOO SHEILD CHESS

Van Cruncheon · « **Reply #350 on:** October 27, 2012, 12:17:24 PM »

i did some quit-reload in sanctuary until i got some good blue guns from marcus for sale, but i hit that wall too

also MAN fuck gold keys. ooohh ohhh i squeal and run to the sanctuary chest and FUCKING TITS CLASS MODS EVERY FUCKING TIME

fistfulofmetal · « **Reply #351 on:** October 27, 2012, 02:32:26 PM »

there's a real easy way to get infinite gold keys on the PC version. did it a few times and got some boss guns.

This is grabbing me waaaaay more than the first one did. The opening in 1 was terrible, I thought. Never got past it. Looks fantastic on PC too, though the perspective in 3D Vision is a bit weird - the guns are so huuuuuge it really throws everything off.

Human Snorenado · « **Reply #359 on:** December 21, 2012, 11:50:50 PM »

RISE FROM YOUR GRAVE

So, yeah. Got this on the Steam sale. Kind of wish I'd bought it earlier, because I promptly played it for five hours. It's fucking awesome, although I did run out of ammo on the first bullywog or whatever boss and had to HARDCORE PUNCH IT TO DEATH with my syren. Got a bad ass pistol that sets shit on fire, just made it to Sanctuary. Having a blast so far. Favorite little bit of flavor so far is a sign on an outhouse that read, "poop hut- no fappin"
