Borderlands 2 release date and preorder

[darkewaffle]

For future reference, if anyone is looking for a decent and easy power level method, don't complete "Tina's Tea Party" during PL2 and repeatedly spawn Fleshstick. Even the 'base' level for the quest is really solid leech XP (1-30 something in like 10-15 minutes and you can leech pretty quickly up to ~43). Then when you defeat the warrior and Fleshstick scales up I'm guessing it'd be even more effective.

That corrosive pistol from the Tea Party was great though in PT 1, I used it for 6-7 levels.

I too rush to enter these SHIFT keys, but does anyone else feel pathetic that we have to rush to enter these keys at the whim of some guy on Twitter?

Yes, which is why I don't do it. I still have my 1 golden key!

Yeah, I used it for quite some time until I just recently found a purple corrosive SMG with some pretty ridiculous stats. I still have the pistol in my inventory, and given my two main weapons are both SMGs (the other is a fire SMG) I tend to go through ammo fast, so I'll swap back to the pistol if I'm running low on SMG ammo.

The only negative thing about keeping lower level weapons is that Borderlands 2 scales health at what seems like a significantly higher amount than the original. I see my damage doubling about every 5 levels or so. The Tea Pot is ridiculously good though, because its rate of fire is good and its elemental damage is pretty high. I'll be saving that quest line for level 50 in playthrough 2.

I don't even know how to compute this

 

[Ferzerp]

Yes, which is why I don't do it. I still have my 1 golden key!

When I feel like using keys, I just back up my profile, and set it to read only, and use as many as I want

 

[Aikouka]

Ugh, why is it that the only place where I ever experience freezes is in Opportunity? :|

 

[gorcorps]

So I was playing around on some lvl 15-16 stuff which I'm a little overleveled for. I had a lvl 14 zer0 come in and he just tore everything apart. I have yet to make a zer0 character, but he seemed to be using melee all the time and would damn near never get hit. Was he just that good or is the character that powerful?

 

[Aikouka]

Sigh... get to redo three quests when I was about to finish the last of them as the game froze.

 

[DaveSimmons]

I just went through Opportunity with my PT 1 Gaige, doing the story, Lilith and Moxxi quests. The endless respawns were just as brutal with Gaige as with Axton.

Much of the time I play without using DeathTrap at all, and I'm using the elemental tree to make it more interesting. Even using DT I died 3 times from the swarms.

Close quarters plus fast and seemingly endless respawns in some spots = me dead

 

[Aikouka]

I'd say that it's a joke with Anarchy, but I can't really tell since I was level 26-27 and I think the highest enemy was 24. I did find that getting smacked with Constructor missiles tends to hurt... a lot. So does killing a Hot Loader when you're really close to it.

 

[Borealis7]

damn't! i'm on PT1 playing solo and i just can't, for the life of me, beat the Hyperion Circle of Slaughter round 5. i beat Fink's circle way back when pretty easily.
i'm just a crunchy lvl 32 assassin, i got Corrosive weapons in all 4 slots lol (sniper, SMG,pistol,machine gun) corrosive longbow grenade, 2400 shield+500HP, i got a sniper mod and a health mod which i switch to when i'm down on HP (+200HP+14% hp regen) and i keep dying around level 3 of that round and there are 7! i want that reward!

 

[WiseUp216]

I only have 10k more experience to go before I hit 50.

I haven't tried Terramorphous yet, but I will tonight around 8PM EST. If any of you guys want to join me, add me on Steam. I still need the Revive-A-Friend achievement, too.

Is there a mission you get the "BEE shield" for, or is it random?

 

[CrystalBay]

Yes ,that mission is given by Mordicai and is entitled "This just In" The problem is the bee isn't a guaranteed spawn and you may have to farm him for a while or it could pop up in ten minutes.

I know im kinda posting spoilers but every one should have the bee if you want to have fun and wipe up baddies fast. the bee is a weak shield for protection though.

yup...I've heard some people say they got it in 10 minutes and others say hours at a time...

 

[Aikouka]

Heh... they're releasing a top-down Borderlands variant for iOS. I can't resist.

 

[WiseUp216]

A couple of my favorite recent screenshots and my favorite shotty. It is doing 250k crits!

 

[KevinCU]

Where did you get that shotty?

 

[WiseUp216]

Where did you get that shotty?

One of the first quests in the DLC. I only played up until I met Captain Scarlett, so it was pretty early on.



Edit: It was "Message in a Bottle".
