Borderlands 2

UVHM is tough. I went back to TVHM and did most of the side missions to level a bit more.
As for UVHM the only thing that works is slag first, and then an elemental weapon. And a lot of ducking and dying:p

Youtube also helped a bit.

Did not finish UVHM yet. Waiting to get to lvl 72 before trying to finish.

I doubt you will ever reach lvl60 on TVHM. They nerfed the experience gain so you have to play UVHM to reach max level. Mobs are lvl50 max on TVHM.
 
Had an itch that I needed to scratch during the weekend. So loaded up Borderlands 2 again. Played my Mechromancer but with a new build. The focus was on running permanent Discord with huge fire rate bonuses whilst using Vladof pistols. The clear speed is insane with a few core items:

- The best Vladof pistol you can find. Non-elemental.
- Sheriffs Badge artifact. Easily farmable from the Sheriff in Lynchwood. Has huge +50% bonus to pistol fire rate and another +20% pistol damage.
- The Bee shield. Also easily farmable if you have the last DLC. Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep. The Treants drop it very often. Otherwise can get from Hunter Helquist. It gives a massive dps increase due to the huge fire rate.

The core build focuses on:

- Discord: always running which gives 3% HP regen per second, +25% fire rate, +65% accuracy. Once you have the skill that gives +25 anarchy when you have 0 anarchy you can have it permanently running.
- Bloodsoaked Shields: gives instant 100% shields on kill. So The Bee is always doing that extra amp damage
- The Better Half: With a +6 class mod you can do another +132% increased fire rate with the 2nd half of your clip.

So total increased fire rate is over +200% half of the time. Otherwise +75% all of the time. Lots of fun to play.

Other characters can get decent fire rate as well but:

- The Gunzerker can only get it whilst gunzerking and holding down the trigger
- The commando can only get it "on kill" so it's useless against stronger enemies and bosses.
 
started preloading Pre-Sequel this morning

have been running through BL2 on Normal Mode doing everything I missed/never did.

was quite a bit, but then I did some of it on TVHM which is why I never felt need to do on Normal.
 
So unfair that the US gets the release of the new Borderlands first!!!!!


But at least "This game will unlock in approximately 3 days and 8 hours"
 
I'll get this in a few months once the hype dies down. Spent much of the last couple month playing Borderlands 2 whilst using the Gibbed Save Editor to try out all the legendary equipment and build around them. One weapon that stood out from all and it's good in almost any situation: DPUH (Double Penetrating Unkempt Harold).

Dual-wield those with the Bee shield and Sheriffs Badge whilst gunzerking = everything dead. Gunzerking can be permanently running from lvl35+ as well. Just ridiculous fun.

For more defence, which is needed in UVHM, there is no better shield than The Sham. 94% bullet absorb chance. The Bee shield is great for for normal and TVHM mode though.
