Thanks, I'll check it out when I get home. I could have sworn my NAT was Open, but I did just have to replace my system and move and might be remembering from before.

I found a Dark Orange revolver around level 18. I'm 27 now and it's still taking enemies in three shots or less. Keep up the hunt, it's well worth it.

Are you playing alone? The odds of Orange drops appearing will increase in co-op.fastford58 said:
Yeah, if you had to replace your system with a new one then you'll have to re-configure its network settings.Hugbot said:

I'm level 32, about to finish my first playthrough and I haven't gotten an orange weapon either. I found a yellow hellfire SMG back in my mid 20s that wrecks shit but that's it. Honestly though I have no problems with my purples/blues - I never really have issues taking out enemies... that being said I may be a couple levels above where I should be.fastford58 said:
Some blue Jacob's Revolver I found a few levels ago takes out every enemy I've ran across in one hit if I crit except for the dudes that carry around the big shields. I have to shoot them twice unless my first bullet is a Killer Shot.
Go with pistols (revolvers and repeaters)... at least until later in the game when snipers become more useful.Darklord said:

As mentioned, play with others and the chances increase (of course you still need to be the one that finds it).
I wasn't finding anything on my 2nd character, until last night where I picked up 4 orange all of which were perfect for my character
yours will come
I think they become too powerful, one of the oranges I picked up was a vulcan sniper. I pretty much 1 shot anything regarless of it being a crit or head shot

The DLC is next week so not too much waiting

Anyone have a 43+ sniper rifle with the Pele/Volcano tag on it they would be willing to hand over
You on 360? I think I have a 35-ish level Pele/Volcano tag Maliwan x4 sniper.

I have a funny feeling that if your on your first playthrough the enemies will be 35/36, if your on your second they will be 49/50

dude everyone is weak 3-4 hours in... just wait till your hawk is leveled, your sniper proficiency is around 20 and you're carrying around a 600 damage 6 shot volcano with a 3x zoom... you'll be sploding heads in no time... I'm even finding white snipers that do upwards of 700 damage now that I'm 50...
I was running around with a level 26 +300% melee hunter the other day who was running around cutting people in half... its crazy what you can do when properly spec'd...
[FYI I'm a soldier currently and I use snipers a ton... the are great when leveled]

If you intentionally skip sidequests during your second playthrough and then go on to beat the final boss, all of the enemies - as you probably are aware of - get boosted to level 50 and slightly up. This rule is also applied to those in the aforementioned sidequests you didn't complete yet (naturally), so I don't see why the DLC wouldn't be able to auto-scale for those who finished the second playthrough.Firestorm said:

Red rarity? Maybe they will be added later on for DLC and that was a tester.
No, someone at SA got the editor running and dumped all the rarity levels.kyo_daikun said:

Pearl Weapons, have a rarity of 101 - 169. Since there is no color value for them they default to white.

Just beat the game, awesome experience.
I nailed that final boss so hard: with my lvl 36 Hunter, with dedicated skills for Crits, I rape the thing with 5000+ shots in the weak points. Hail to my stuff !
Now, how do I go in a second playthrough ?
And how come my " kille 15 enemy with the Hunter's ability " haven't been unlocked yet ?

After an hour of farming New Haven my level 25 hunter has 3 Orange Weapons and a Pink. I also got an Alien weapon but not sure what to think of it.
If you need weapons (and/or money) set aside some time to farm New Haven, you won't be disappointed. There are 2 crates you must hit, the others are good for money. The vendor machine will also have an occassional pink/orange quality weapon (lvl 25 seems to be the max).

I'm 12 hours in and my most powerful rifle has 130 damage. I uses revolvers more though but my best one has 60 damage plus 4x fire damage. I love it.Darklord said:
Ok, so I have been doing a pretty dumb thing...
I thought Pack Upgrades were equipable-like items (I missed the Press A to use), and after I got one (which I thought upgraded my backpack to 12) I sold all the other ones (Im currently 25 and have sold at least 3). Is there anyway, to go back and get them again or buy more? Yes, I feel stupid even saying it outloud.

Ouch. You might want to start a character for the sole purpose of getting the ones you missed and tossing them over... otherwise I don't see any way you can get them

Yay ammo back.
Now to find a teal weapon.
So I realized something tonight.
As anyone who has played both single and multiplayer knows, in singleplayer your gameworld freezes when you pause/open you inventory, while in multiplayer it does not.
On playthrough one, I didn't notice at all. But on playthrough 2, switching to different weapons per the situation seems much more important. In singeplayer you are given all the time in the world to find the right tool for the job, while being unable to freeze that jumping skag can be the difference between life and death while you sweep your gun collection for the shotty you need in multiplayer.
I believe that multiplayer's way of handling this is the far superior experience.
These, I like. (x7 damage on both)
