Yeah, doesn't it expressly say that Anarchy quickly degenerates with second wind.
Beat the game last night, not a single purple or orange from the final bossWell, I take that back, there may have been an orange gun but it was wedged UNDER the boss making it UNLOOTABLE
Now to finish of all the side quests in playthrough 1 before moving onto #2.
If you went through Hero's pass again the loot would still be there. It is a hassle but at least you would have a free orange.
Tried to leave out the exit available to people on the lower level but I couldn't get back to the zone from that exit so I just said screw it as I didn't want to fight through Hero's Pass zone again (it was late and I was tired).

Finally beat that piece of crap. I just went right up to its face and unloaded my SMG right in its eye. When my shield went down it auto napalmed everything around me until it began to regenerate.

happened to me the one and only time I've finished the game. How does this make it past QA? If this isn't fixed by the time PiratesBooty hits then it's clear as day, Gearbox it totally fucking with us. we shouldn't have to manipulate the game to get our gear.
haven't tried it myself but I'm Your Huckleberry + Mod and the Sheriffs Badge
It would be nice if it would just despawn after a few minutes
Even tried killing a few rakks to make it despawn but that didn't work.For greens only jeez that is sad but thanks for the info.

I don't see why it's doesn't, all the other standard mobs fade away if you stand around long enough.

I knew those basics, I was looking for something a bit more detailed. Between dual wielding pistols for the quest where you fight The Sheriff and remembering the fun I had with a pistol build on Mordecai in the first game I figure a full on pistol build would be pretty great but I'm in TVHM now so I know I can't really screw around with a bad build without getting murdered.

You don't use money for anything, except slots and tipping Moxxi, really.

Three Borderlands symbols and you're guaranteed a random orange weapon scaled to your level.
Also, anyone have any Gaige heads, skins and class mods they don't need? (Steam)
where ya from?
So the game has become unplayable to me
I'm by the entrance of Dust and my car keeps sinking into the ground and I can't drive. Last time I fell through a hole and died and it fckn charged me. I do want to continue playing to keep falling through the ground all the time W T F!

Join somebody's game and get back to Sanctuary so you autosave - Then when you reload you should load up in there.

Tip Moxxi between 15k and 30k to get a sweet corrosive or fire SMG from her. Good Touch or Bad Touch (you can get both).
Yup, using the $100 tip, if you give her enough she will give you a purple SMG (that I think is corrosive most of the time) based off the story mission's level. Tip her some more and she will give you another purple SMG that is always fire and also is based off the story mission's level. You can repeatedly tip her to get the fire SMG, but you can never get the corrosive one again, or you may be able to in PT2, not sure. You can basically use her as a 'free' fire SMG giver when you are low on guns. Unfortunately fire isn't a great element late in the game so it may not help you much.
No one really knows for sure. Alien? Robot?
Collect the ECHOs in Sawtooth Cauldron to hear more of his backstory.
I disagree with this so much. As a Siren, fire weapons are down right Godly. Ruin + Wreck + fire SMG destroys any organics without a shield in under a second. If they have a shield, strip it away with a shock weapon, then do step 1.
Of course. But late game you won't really find many flesh enemies. Hyperion soldiers are mainly shield/armor, Loaders are all armor, and skags and threshers have a ton of HP. I'm not saying fire is a crappy element, it's one of the best at what it does, but you just don't get much use out of it later in the game.
Got a really great assault rifle at 40(orange) from them at that time. Though I dropped 7 million last night in them and nothing really special. Though money isn't really an issue at this point. So might as well try

Slightly tired.
Any PC Borderlander mind carrying a level 37 through Terra and Warrior on TVHM? I just want the money. Not so much the items...though if you want to give them to me I wouldn't complain.

What are you going to use the money for?

Sweet, I'll add ya. Steam name is : Ke0 as a heads up
Honestly...not a thing that I'm aware of lol. I might become a raging BL2 gambling addict and spend all of my time on slots.
I just want the XP.

Send me a msg when you go after Terra and I'll help if you have room. Still want that damn sniper (or the M. Bison hat).

Anyone can join. Also, I'll be dropping some level 40-ish orange weapons that I don't need.
We can start with Warrior runs. I think I'm at the end of my TVHM playthrough so we have to get there first, unless someone is already there that can take us.

You will still come across lots of flesh enemies late game, especially after you beat TVHM, where everything gets bumped to level 49 - 52. And shields mean nothing when a shock weapon eats through them so fast. As a Siren, you should always keep a high leveled fire/corrosive/shock weapon with you at all times.
I'm there. Might be laggy though, playing from SEA.
Yeah, that's true I suppose. Actually been having a hard time finding decent elemental weapons. My top 3 weapons are non-ele Shottie, AR and SMG right now

I prefer corrode over fire if only because it look cooler.. even though I'm only 1/3 into TVHM I find corrode much more useful.
Though I like using shock grenades over almost everything else.
Though I like using shock grenades over almost everything else.
I'm using a pistolzerker right now (I was also a gunslinger in BL1) and I had a bit of trouble in the beginning of TVHM but now it's going better than I expected it to work. I put most of my skills into improving gunzerker time/cooldown. Down and Not Out is pretty important as well. My last few skill points were divided between Divergent Likeness and Money Shot.
When working my way through the game I mostly swore by a decent Jakobs gun as my primary, a slag pistol as my secondary for gunzerking (preferrably a non-Maliwan so you don't keep reloading), a corrisive pistol for loaders, and an explosive pistol for the shield enemies that give you trouble. I also had to doing a lot of long range shooting with a sniper especially at the beginning of TVHM because gunzerking wouldn't last too long. Towards the end of the game I'm dual wielding 2 Maggies and 2 unkempt harolds (completely wrecks those constructors or tight crowds of enemies).

Corrode is the shit.
I mean, I feel like half the foes in this game are robots, so it makes sense to have a gang of corrosive weapons ready to go.
That said, I've found very little use for shock and slag weapons to date. Or, I haven't found a time when I'd rather be using some other elemental weapon or a plain high-powered Jachobs. I tend to just keep a single shock pistol for dealing with an enemy who's shield isn't falling fast enough with some other gun, but that's been about it.
