That or the avalanche coupled with Moxxi's probe make you pretty much unstoppable.
Especially burning stuff with a hellfire.

I think that's part of why it isn't as funny to me maybe. It seems too entrenched in Australian culture. And that's fine really, why not have a game that appeals more to them. They're a big country. It's just not nearly as funny to me as 2.
I think this game is the weakest solo game though. It's just not nearly as much fun as the others when alone. Guess I'll exclusively play this one with others. Not that there's anything wrong with that either. I just usually experience the story the first time alone in games like this so nothing gets skipped, but it's too laborious this time to do so.
Totally agree. Played for a while this morning to make some progress while no one else was on and yeaaaaaaaaaaaaah.

If anyone wants to boost achievements on the PC release (
and
as far as I know), shoot me a pm so we can arrange that for both of us.
win a duel
revive 10 times a player with O2
Athena has a tree for her shield, another for melee and one for dealing elemental damage.Wish I would've looked at the Claptrap skill tree before picking the character
Tempted to restart as Athena. Or is it worth just sticking it out with Claptrap?
If that appeals to you then go ahead.
No idea how claptrap plays though so.
When I play her I'm definitely using those trees. It looks fun.
So far Melee Athena has been a great experience for me. I'm still trying to get better at causing enemies to bleed and then letting them die on their own because I regain a bit of health for each enemy that is bleeding now. Can't wait to reach that cap stone.
One of my fairly personal gripes. Athena's different heads have been meh so far. The defaults are still the best.

I have to change the resolution every time I start the game up, it won't save the setting once I quit, it does for other graphics settings. anyone else experience this? Any suggestions?

Have I made a dent in my 11 hours?
I got the geek's girlfriend A.I. and now have to create a robot army in chapter 6.
That's about halfway I think.
Claptrap plays pretty alright has some benefits for teams but most things are a bit of double edged sword. It's fun but randomness in your action skill can comeback to haunt you at moments.Wish I would've looked at the Claptrap skill tree before picking the character

anyone have any good builds for claptrap?
So I beat the first actual boss of the game (Deadlift) and wow did I have a lot of issues with him. I don't know if I just came in woefully unprepared but the lack of any vendors before the battle made him a real pain in the ass to deal with well after having died multiple times. His shield was kind of ridiculous and I only got pretty lucky in camping and using Athena's shield + a long distance burst fire gun. Maybe I'm still a scrub as far as this franchise goes but despite the area layout being pretty intuitive and creative, that was a really frustrating boss.
I also have to say that I'm not a very big fan of the way this game handles double jumping. Whenever you move its more like an extended hover mechanic. While its nice I really wish there was an -actual- double jump in this game since I'm quite fond of the added verticality this game has to offer.

He's deadly from long range but pretty weak at close range.. Just take that first jump pad and hang around the stairs area between those two levels and wait for him to come to you. Do you have that Loyalty Rewards blue Hyperion shotgun? If so he drops pretty quickly to that. The stairs is a safe zone if he electrifies the floor.
He seemed impossibly difficult when I tried to fight him from long range. Don't bother. Let him fall into your close-range trap. Since doing that with each character, I've never died to him again.

PS4/XB1 release is pretty much inevitable after the new year.
It will probably be released in January like the Tromb Raider HD version was.

No idea what would cause that... The new movement stuff certainly isn't jarring or anything. In fact it's kinda understated Things look and feel very much like bl2 so I think you should be fine.
I also hope they keep the aerial movement stuff in the next one and make it wilder as well. Borderlands needs movement as interesting and ridiculous as the guns are.
Yea he was a challenge with his stupid shock platforms, but a pretty fun boss imo.
I just found my first Legendary already! It dropped during a side quest from one of those not-so-cute Torks. Pretty awesome.

Grats. I'm up to 15 hours played and have yet to see a single legendary. Feels like BL2 all over again where I get to try out maybe 15% of the total legendaries available in the game because I don't do the raids.
Maybe it will be better because the quality of vendor loot is better. At least in the special item spot.

I was in Outlands Canyon and had 2 orange grenade mods drop today...sadly going by the stats they weren't really any better then what I already had so I just put them in my bank
The only upgrades I'm getting for my gear is through the Golden Chest in Concordia. My luck with finding chests with better loot or getting better drops is pretty poor so far. I'm trying not to burn through my keys though so I only open 1 or 2 chests every few levels. I try and keep track of new codes added so I keep my stock as high as I can.

These are the orange drops I mentioned earlier...
I've been doing quite well with something like this:
Boomtrap:
- Killbot 5/5
- Coincidental combustion 5/5
- Second wind
- Load'n'splode 5/5
- I'm rubber you're glue
- One last thing 5/5
- Livin' near the edge
- Maniacal laughter 5/5
- Through thick and thin 5/5
- Kick him whilst he's down
- You're going to love me
- It's a trap card
- All the guns
- Fuzzy logic 3/3
- Safety first
- Blue shell 5/5
- Triple clocked
If fragmented fragtrap isn't your cup of tea then just take fuzzy logic and safety first and distribute the other 7 points where you want them.
What head is that and how do you get it?
EDIT
Nvm
RedBelly in Crisis Scar apparently drops it.
Unfriendly skies it's dropped by Redbelly.

I'm glad it seems the better weapon drop rate is higher in this compared to BL2. I found my second gold in a vending machine, the first was in a slot machine.

If you're talking about the
basketball quest then yes...do it on fire
The ending to that one is hilarious (least it is to me)
Yup! Area and NPC names shocked me. First DOTA2, and now BL2.5? TOG is officially the Lightning of obscure indie references in triple A releases.
How does everyone feel about the absence of slag? I hardly even noticed it was gone at first which I guess is a good thing. Uvhm seemed to be balanced wholely around the concept of slag so it's nice to not have to go through a 2 step process to kill e erything again.
Liking cryo a lot though nd hope they keep it.
Also noticed that off element damage seems to be more forgiving so maybe they tweaked those numbers too.

Didn't like Slag that much to be honest. It just forced u to use it (which means one less slot to use), else u were stuck battling those weak guys for 10 minutes each. -_-
Cryo, however is pretty awesome and I hope that element comes back in Borderlands 3.
I loved the Bonus Package in BL2. Especially the homing ones. I used to throw them at the start of a bar brawl and just sit at the entrance watching everything get blown up.

I feel that the game improves as yo advance, it's getting better and better. Like everybody says, this isn't a revolution of the formula, but god damn is it good.
I just need someone to play with on PS3

I got it for $47. After beating it and playing TVH mode now, I say it's worth full price. It starts slow but picks up and doesn't stop until the end. It gets better and better as you progress.
I got the impression with BL2, and this game, a lot of people, at least on GAF, have it on PC. I do.
yup, i'm on pc and really liking it. Started as Athena, but found her too serious so restarted as Nisha. I like Nisha's ability a lot, but the melee's really suck in this game...especially after coming off Destiny. Not too far in, but I like the moon stuff with the change of scenery, gravity, and oxygen mechanics.

I usually play on english, but this one I'm going with spanish language. Not feeling anything of the australian accent that way lol
As I'm sadly playing it on solo, I get the little bastard out of the vaulthunter.exe all the time. It looks like is the best claptrap action skill

A little fluff between the ears never did any harm...
