I love being all up in the action with Gaige so I'm exclusively on the ordered chaos tree for the time being. Who needs accuracy with 250 stacks of Anarchy. And I must yet again stress that if you accidentally reload just change weapon before the reload animation finishes and you will not lose stacks.

Pirate DLC Quick Look going up on GB in like 12 hours, but Jeff said he doesn't like the Mechromancer in the latest ILM.

Jeff also always plays the warrior/fighter class in fantasy games the guy likes his rpg characters as straight forward as possible. Gaige is about as unorthodox as it get relative to the other four vault hunters.
Disclaimer: I think Jeff is an awesome dude.

Get out nao!
I hope Gearbox continues making classes that are as involved as Gaige's ordered chaos tree.
Low on life? You can reload to heal yourself but you lose stacks of anarchy so it becomes a choice for the player..

Is Absorb evasion?
Meaning, do I take damage from the bullets I soak up?

In all fairness, if you're using the top of the BFF tree you can heal pretty well with no stack cost. She's pay to win, but I like exploring broken systems and she's full of them...
She reminds me of the siren from BL1 in that regard. Haven't tried the new ones yet, though.
Its 24 with the 20% off code GMG20-FXYD1-7WHP1
I have been meaning to go test this, so I think I'll do that tonight. I believe the answer is yes, if it successfully procs you will avoid the damage.
Note that when you absorb shots, you gain ammo for the type of gun that was used to shoot you, not for the weapon you are holding.

The trick for all the reload addicts is to get Jakobs with what would normally be a two shot capacity and then take smaller, lighter, faster the games rounds way up on the smaller magazine percentage and only give you one shot. It then becomes impossible to actually press the reload button with that weapon.

I still lose ammo with Tediore's.

The worst is when you have anarchy/discord and you reload a tediore, then in a panic you shoot a bullet and reload again, wasting two full clips.
Same. Granted she seems to be tailored to that no reloading skill and I can't use it since I reload too much.
Unwind the reload key if yahoo wanna try out anarchy.

Why not just put one point into the ability that stops stacks from dropping?
Personally I love the Mechro, I find it to be a fresh way to play, I used to spam reload every chance I had, but it's been a bit of a challenge to get used to her style and I'm lovin it.
I'm not having any issues not reloading anymore really, I take Discord just in case I mess up or the multiplayer game lags (used to cause the auto reload to cause stacks to reset when in online games, haven't seen this in a while though maybe they fixed it?)
also love the voice acting, just really feeling the class and I hope they have more DLC classes to come if they are anything like this one.

Gaige is great. More to the point, Death Trap is great.

Have they even said what time to expect the update to go live? Specifically on PC
Hahaha, unbind the reload key. Then try anarchy.
Thanks bud!

Yeah, that would have been nice. Also showing on the map loot drop icons and stuff would have been great too. Must have been a console memory limitation or something.
Im going to assume we have to work with her then eventually kill her in the end?
EDIT: Rewatching it feels like it's heading that direction tbh
Also I hope they one day do an arena for just bosses Old and New, from both Borderlands.
I'm at the end of the game with just a few sidequests left before the final boss. I'm highly tempted to just hold off on beating it so I can do the DLC since I really don't want to play through everything again right now >_>
I will say that the story in this one has shaped up much better than the last game. When

Jack appeared and shot Rollin then collared Lilith and was all like, "Sup" I smiled in glee. He's my new favorite bad guy.
The same Jeff who said that anyone who doesn't use Roland in BL1 "is playing it wrong"? I'd say anyone who played Roland was playing it wrong, and I'm loving Gaige.Pirate DLC Quick Look going up on GB in like 12 hours, but Jeff said he doesn't like the Mechromancer in the latest ILM.

The trailer did nothing for me. Told me nothing about the new features.
