no problem, darling. I'll check through Amazon to see if they can be gifted.

I'd send it to KT for repaying the gift of FO3 several years ago, but I believe he already has BL--or so sayeth Steam.

Amazon digital doesn't have any gifting option. You can just PM the steam key though which is the easiest way.

btw--the link that KeithP posted earlier with the golden keys info mentions the cheat to use the same key(s) over and over again by setting the key folder to read only, and it seems confirmed to work as of 2 days ago (though there seems to be an update that has since occurred...)

The Read-Only trick still worked for me last night. And in case you don't know it - anything you drop with the chest open falls through the floor into oblivion. Boy was I pissed the first time that happened! Just load up stuff you don't want and sell it off to free up slots for the GK gear. My Season Pass DLC is waiting for my Zero to get through TVHM, then maybe I'll shelve BL2 for the other 50+ games in my backlog, and maybe life and whatnot too ;)

Out of all the classes (6 I think?) what is the best Tier 6/Major game changer skill? I haven't played in quite a while (6+ months I believe), so I'm not up to speed with what has changed since the last time I was playing (skill nerfs, boosts, or alterations).

They have not really messed with skills at all. Most of the changes are from uvhm and the dlcs.


IMO (this is with raid bosses and uvhm in mind)

Sal's No Kill Like Overkill is pretty good, the whole gunlust tree is good. The middle tree one is ok too.

Mayas Ruin is also pretty good, but cataclysm is a terrible tree. Scorn isn't bad either. I'd take scorn over ruin because the harmony tree is better, but lots of people love ruin.

Axtons I don't even bother climbing up to tier 6 because he doesn't even need them, but double up is ok.

Zero...I don't play him much but Kunai and Many must fall are both good. Critical Ascension is just terrible.

Don't know enough about Gaige or Kreig to say.

They're mostly posted on Twitter and Facebook. It's just a guesstimate, but I probably see about 3/4 of them on Twiter from Randy. :p

Thanks!

I just got the Pyscho DLC ($5 at Amazon) and am going through the starting sequence to get him to Sanctuary for some more bank space.

His tier-1 skills and base class skill are (to me) underwhelming at levels 5-7, more so that the other 5. This is a character where it would be nice to have a "start at Sanctuary at level 9" option. I suspect Gearbox did most of their skill tree testing at level 20+ and didn't care whether playing levels 1-19 was fun or not.

But I've played BL2 so much that I don't mind tossing them another $5 even if I don't start liking the class later.

How'd you get it for $5? Did you have a $5 game credit? I just paid $10 for it yesterday or the day before.

ETA: I got my Pyscho to lvl 7. He's ok so far. They do sound really really fun at higher levels, but yeah, after leveling all the other 5 classes into the late teens at least, doing it again isn't terribly exciting at this point.
