Borderlands 3 |OT| The Three-Sequel!!
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
I got 2 just last night. Their balancing needs some work. I'm also kinda miffed the max amount of skills boosted seems to be 3 but I imagine that'll change with more dlc.
I've heard folks mention that they can't find class mods unless they are playing with the hotfix enabled.
I got four class mods today playing offline.
The group I was playing with yesterday got a bunch online.
They're just more rare than most legendaries.

Honestly no idea and a lot of people on the forums have no idea. Would be great if Gearbox cleared up a lot of the stuff about anointed items.
Oh a Moze class mod, GREEEEEAAAAAAAT.
But like, phaseslam for 300% and action skill for 100%, that's kind of different, am I right?

I never found any class mods offline. Online I got them at least regularly. Will play offline a bit for today and test my luck again. :D
Hit 50 and up to mayhem 2, but not really sure what to do. I assume start a TVHM playthrough and make my way to mayhem 3. Don't know if I want to do all the logs and stuff again though. Also I've been using a pretty good elemental phase grab build but want to try a good elemental phase cast build, anyone got a good one? Also a got a Hyperion Legendary shock smg that absolutely melts, forget the name.
Crew challenges and map completion all carry over to TVHM, if that's what you're worried about :)
Avatar is a must get, lets you use your action skill twice in quick succession. The orb skill also only needs one point to be super effective because it uses overkill damage and is how people are getting 1m+ crits as her at endgame. Laid Bare is a monster with Avatar because any spongey enemies you hit with your action skill will take a ton of damage from it. From Rest is decent if you like Maliwan weapons because it speeds up their charge time dramatically. The skill where you get increased gun damage after using your action skill is a solid DPS increase as well.
Most of this shines the most from the Phasezerker class mod
You don't need any specific gear besides this as well, any elemental guns pair really well with it.
I use a modified version of this build with a few points changed due to personal preference and different relics and weapons.
You can also still melee as a solid dps backup because Samsara and Illuminated Fist are one pointers.
Really the only skills that are Mandatory are Do Harm, Remnant, Ascendant, Laid Bare, and Anima. (plus having incendiary and corrosive action skill elements unlocked)
Edit: not at my ps4 rn but pretty sure this is how I did my skill distribution or something similar to it:
Of course some of her skills are bugged/unclear so it'll change if (when) she gets some fixes.
Here's a list of bugs: https://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/t/master-list-of-amara-bugs/3548648 (some apply all the time, others are spotty)
oh and my relic is a level 47 and has different stats (incendiary resist and damage as opposed to melee damage) but the important thing is the ignite chance being 100% on melee, slams and slides
this is an absurd dps increase for her if you just pick up illuminated fist and don't even have bladed guns or anything else melee related. just tag enemies once with it and watch the red bars disappear.
Obviously if you're going for a blitz/full-melee build you don't want it because ignite means it's gonna be a DOT and not be as much outright burst damage as other melee relics so you won't get to reset blitz cooldown.
See my above post. And I wouldnt do tvhm yet because the bank is currently super small and buggy so you cant even save all unique quest rewards plus if you're on console you can't even activate mayhem on tvhm until after completing the story again. Also TVHM may actually be easier for Amara depending on your setup/preferences because correct element matching goes even further.
At this point I got my Amara to the point where she can do mayhem 3 stuff pretty reliably but I'm waiting to dive any deeper into the endgame before they fix some bugs. Just leveling up the other 3 characters now.
WTB Corrusive Crossroads. Can not for the life of me get any to drop at all after getting my first radiated one. By far my favorite weapon in the game next to the Lyduas. Although this baby has been getting some insane play time also for me.
Just got done playing..... Offline yet I cannot find a single Legendary Class mod but there's some of y'all in here saying you did. Sucks but I'll have to try tomorrow.
That's the EXACT weapon I need, even the goddamn element. Ffs. Wasted potential on your stupid OP robot that kills everything with any weapon anyway lol. And you have multiple Cryo Calls? What the fuck. Where did you get them? I swear I've been farming multiple bosses for hours on end. 4 Butchers, 3 Stormfronts and a shitton of useless stuff, but not a sngle Lucian's Call.WTB Corrusive Crossroads.

I use the same weapons but that Lucian at 621 Wow mine is 578,i had this to drop last night...finally:)WTB Corrusive Crossroads.

Thanks, looks like a solid build I'll try out. And yea I'm on pc, so I'll give TVHM a go. Don't feel like farming bosses over and over again yet. And I got the negative guardian tokens bug which sucks.
I haven't seen a single legendary one offline, and I've seen over two dozen online. I guess it could just be RNG, but four hours on Graveward, and an hour on Chupacabras without any offline, then within an hour online I see five where the drop rates in general are much worse? I don't even bother farming online unless I am specifically after class mods, because I simply have not seen a single one offline anyway. Plenty of blue and purple variants, sure.
Hah@FL4K.
I have a Lucian's of each element as well. :( None are anointed though. The only bosses I really bother farming are Graveward, Chupacabras and sometimes
Katagawa Jr.
Worst fucking enemies in the game since it seems like their rockets hitscan, and it gets really stupid when there are two or three at a time considering how fast they shoot and how damaging they are. The hitboxes are broken as fuck on a lot of enemy weapons too. You'll get hit by explosions while behind walls, and sometimes even when you are behind walls and back a distance from where the explosion actually happened.

No, not at the moment. It's as stupid as not being able to mute / skip the boring and obnoxious echo monologues (or is there?). Every time I talk to an NPC I just want them to shut the fuck up.
Jeez, Slaughterhouse 3000 was a freakin nightmare!
I barely survived with maxed ammo and some powerful legendaries. But it was the last of the side quests and I was able to close out with a platinum for this game.
You have to deal with a lot of Maliwan flunkies, not to mention legions Heavies, NOGs, and Nullhounds. Not to mention Badass variants and robots.
And just when you're finally done with the last round...
TWO GIANT MECHS SHOW UP TO TRY AND RUIN YOUR DAY.

I got 2 Legendary mods from my Graveward fight. About the same frequency as other legendaries.
Also, I just got a Cutsman and because I apparently don't pay attention very well to shit you guys post, and didn't realize the red text was from the fucking Horse the Band song. Which means this game will always be a 10/10 to me and you're all wrong and will have to live with the shame that you are wrong for the rest of your lives.
Anyways, after getting the whole story I have veeeeery divided and complicated thoughts on the plot and characters that I need to get in order. Essentially that the idea for what they wanted to do with the plot was actually really good and could have been tremendously powerful but that in execution they didn't hit the notes they needed to because of flaws in the writing. So it's less that I think the Calypsos are bad characters and more that they could've been REALLY good if the focus was on the shit that you learn in the end and it was more heavily invested in their characters throughout so that when you get the reveals at the end you sort of see how they acted throughout and go "Oooooooh. Oh shit." But I think they undercut themselves with a lot of it so in the end you never really felt any of it during.
Hrm. I'll have to put more thought into this.

No fixes to bank items disappearing or 75 guardian rank offense being bugged. Ugh. It's a start.

i dont think so, this is a patch and not a hotfix, patchs are download and installed in game cache, hotfix is a online fix so u can go offline to disable it, but i could be wrong about this.

LMAO, and some here thought the fight was fine. That's the attack that wrecked most people that were having issues in the end anyway.
Nor Hollow Point, which can explode on your pets and allies.
This was needed:
- Player icons are now pinned to the side of the mini-map when playing in any kind of multiplayer.
Yeah that's what I meant, forgot the skill name.
I havent gotten to that yet and luckily wont until they patch it but it's baffling that and the bank glitched weren't addressed.
This. The baadd rocket launcher enemies are not only pinpoint accurate, they spam those rockets like nobody's business. On Mayhem+, this is really, really annoying, especially if they're using any sort of element. My screen is just fire/ice/corrosive effects so I can't even see anything.
Don't forget the constant screaming whenever your character gets affected by elemental damage
I usually play with the sound off just to negate that issue.
I really, really wish they would fix the map bug (at least on PS4), where if you load the map and zoom and move at the same time, it rips the cursor over to either a fast travel station or some random spot on the map. It makes quick navigation really, really annoying.
This explains why I found the fight piss easy lol. Never hpapened to me
Judging by the twitter, seems like they haven't nailed down what's causing the bank glitch. My guess is that they're not updating the savepoint for database rollbacks correctly (or it's overwriting correctly updated savepoints with the initial bank state) . So it sometimes may load your initial bank state.
That porcelain fix explains why sometimes people in this thread were sometimes one shotting and other times taking multiple grenades.
I kinda thought we'd get a patch today when I saw bahroo start up BL3 after a few days break
Yup, I've definitely been unable to get a kill during ffyl before because I literally can't see anything due to all the effects.
If mules werent so annoying to get to sanctuary I would have a bunch by now but yeah.
Thanks for the tips, boss.
So I guess Infusion, the skill that converts damage to Action Skill element, isn't worth using?
Looks like I was going down the right path, more or less, though I need to tweak some things.

It's only worth it if your favorite gun is non-elemental. It's cool while leveling up but once you get to to endgame and more enemies have shields or armor I like having the freedom of being able to change my action skill element and have my weapons be the same or different depending on what kind of enemies I'm fighting.
Again that's more of a personal thing, it's not a bad skill by any means, just not one I like. Although there were reports of it actually making DOT damage less if you're using the same weapon element as your action skill element. I.e. if you're using a fire gun and have infusion and fire action skill element equipped, not only will the skill be redundant at that point in time but it may lead to less overall damage.
