Borderlands 3 |OT| The Three-Sequel!!
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
Top-tier legendaries are almost always better than regular epics or rares. Stuff like Queen's/King's Call, Facepuncher, crossroad etc flat out wreck. But most legendaries are just "Gimmick The Gun", so it is possible that you haven't had a good legendary drop for you yet even though you've seen a few already.
Why not just farm bosses on Mayhem-2 or above? Mayhem-3 has ridiculous drop rates too, it is so high, you can just kill random badasses and goliaths after spawning on Jakob Estate and get at least 2-5 legendaries per run, just running and gunning everything that shows up before the elevator.

From my vague and unclear testing, it seems as though the buff did apply immediately after firing Rakk Attack, and did not obviously appear in the buff bar. Stacking, couldn't say.
The borderlands wiki normally has all of them, might be while before they are all added. I used it all the time with the other borderlands games because it has more than just what the red text means, it normally also has what the gun is good for, or if the gun sucks in general lol.
Ahh thanks! I'll see if they a phone app, but if not I'll bookmark it.
Less, but they are longer and more robust aide missions. Not as many quick ones.
Just means it's rapid-fire (like hair trigger fast) - I was using a gun that had Radiation, really felt crisp. (Playing as FLAK Invis-build)
Is there any way to search for a specific circle of slaughter in matchmaking? I wanna finish the maliwan and beasties one
their are 124 or so quests in BL2 96 in BL3 but pretty much some are same as BL2 but some are pretty beefy like killavolt which ends up with a full on boss and area youd never visit without it so i prefer this some fast quests but many more beefy quests.
LolMy first thought was... can Killavolt even hurt me?
The answer is no. He literally can't.
I had a level 43 version of this which I only kept for utility. Got a level 49 today which is now my main shield. I hate how items that aren't level 50 drop in mayhem 2 at level 50. Gearbox pls
Also yeah holy fuck this maliwan slaughter is brutal even in co-op. That and the beast one are all I have left for the platinum.
I think some of my favorite quests are the side missions.
I'm almost done with the game and I honestly like it better than Borderlands 2 (which I never finished). I guess not playing Tales might have been to my benefit as the characters seem alright to me.
- I helped bake a birthday cake (always pay your baker)
- I helped a robot find a missing research team which ended in a fun cage match with a giant dinosaur and giant ape
- I helped another robot find her head and fought a demon in the dark. (I really liked this one, the different perspective from the robots and then later Typhon's logs, good stuff)
- I went to a birthday party with Mordecai. This was one of the hardest mission. I actually almost stopped playing for a bit. I'm gonna keep the gun until the end for Grace.

My God, this. Was completely not ready for them, but they are amazing. They have an awesome close up to their story arc, too.
Yup just worked for me - 3 more hours or so until expiry.
I really don't like the timed nature of this approach. Just feels heavy-handed given that people already have to monitor your bullshit lol
"have to"
Still leveling up before I start a TVHM run, but regarding each of the maps, any faster methods of uncovering unexplored areas other than just going map by map? I had thought about doing full exploration during my actual playthroughs, but I quickly abandoned that idea.
I'm sure I've still got tons of undiscovered sidequests and whatnot, just wish there were a quicker way to identify them than having to run up and discover them after finishing the game

Any help is appreciated. I'm going through each level now cleaning up Typhon Logs, Dead Claptraps, etc. I'm playing through Athenas and am stuck on 97% complete. Found a map online and I've found/gotten every single thing in that level. Is there some weird obscure thing I'm missing?
Did you click left stick on the map you're viewing? It shows all the components that make up the 100% rating. Red chests and missions count as part of that score.
Wow, a hundred hours into this game and I never even knew you could do that. Thanks for the help. Sigh.
Why is the sound so messed up. I can't hear a character unless I am right in front of them and facing them. It's annoying. I've adjusted all the settings I can, and audio is perfectly fine in every other game.
The butt stallion grenade is beautiful. Every combat encounter is full of rainbows and glorious!
Man, I feel like the humor in this game rough. This feeble and the furious side mission is especially bad. I'm having someone yelling "you're a wet hemorrhoid " or "I got two logs fighting in my tummy ready for a mud slide". I found borderlands 2 funny as hell, but I don't even see immature me at 14 finding this funny.
Edit: Also is the playforming in this mission super hard or am I just over complicating it 😂
Second edit: I definitely over complicated it... there was a stairway. I was jumping on piles and like going out of bounds and shit. I was thinking gearbox made this level very elaborate and tough haha

So like, what's the deal with the billion ammo chests everywhere? Why don't they just have enemies drop ammo? It weakens the appeal of opening chests in general and slows the game down considerably. I know it was like this in the other games, but it really could've been streamlined here.
Wtf? There different circles of slaughter? How do i access them? Or are these just the ones after finishing the first one?
We tried 4 times to survive a circle of slaughter with 4 players on level 30 but this is some intense difficulty coupled with heavy sfx chaos. We've yet to survive a whole set of rounds because it seemingly aborts the mission after everyone dies at least once?! (There is so much stuff not explained properly -.-). Does it get easier at higher levels?

that bit was genuinely funny though. but yeah i agree, the game dragged massively near the end.
At least for FL4K, making the pets immune to AoE / Elemental damage would help. At least then it would only be melee and direct kinetic damage, but yeah, they need to do something about the end game scaling.
Destiny 2 - the exotics were dreadful at launch. Like garbage tier.
I don't see the issue with legendaries here. They all are setup to do a particular job and fit particular playstyles better than other guns in the game. Sure one or two seem to not be so special but most do well. But then I'm not bothered about 1 extra damage point here or there so perhaps that is my issue.
Seriously. FL4K's Skag is the only one that can (barely) stay alive in Mayhem Mode. The Spiderant and the Jabber die almost instantly if there are Badass or Anointed enemies nearby.
Does it not depend on how you spec it? Or is that irrelevant?
From my experience, the Skag is a bit tankier than the other two, and if you build with health regen he can stand his ground for a while. Spiderant and Jabber just die before health regen can do anything.
Also, any large scale map that required a lot of vehicular traversal sucks balls. Vehicles simply aren't fun in this game, yet you're forced to use them, because even on larger scale maps, there's way too few warp stations.
Any open mostly non-linear zone in this game made me sigh upon looking at the map screen.
Because - while in other games, exploring these maps would be fun - here, you immediately know that, apart from exceptions like zer0 or Hammerlock challenges, most of the areas there were reserved for some side quest later on - making you either retread what is by then a ghost town devoid of fresh enemies; or fight the same enemies all over again.
The game's super linear with how it doles out side quests, yet often presents itself as some open world.
ALSO; VEHICLES SUCK.
Why do some assets load up a few seconds or more after the area? I thought Unreal engine solved it years ago....
For fellow PC players who wish there some sort of town portal equivalent, this trainer has a "teleport to waypoint" feature. I haven't tried it myself yet, but I assume it works exactly as you'd think.
