This is the farthest I've been on these runs or in the game in general. Have to stay super vigilant whenever entering a zone I've never been to before. No frolicking allowed.

โ” [ Question ] Coming back to BL3 and need a little refresher

โ€ข Upvotes

Hello guys. I have finally bought the Ultimate Edition. I beat the base game back when it first came out, have hundreds of hours of playtime on previous games, but I haven't played any Borderlands game in years and I am finally going to check out the DLCs for BL3. I loaded an old save and I'm a bit lost, haha. I main Zane and I think I'm in the middle of the campaign on TVHM. I'm level 60 rn. I think I'll continue with the story and after beating it again will try the DLCs. However, I'm a bit lost, mostly regarding loot.

Is there any good/meta loot to look out for? Or any legendaries that 100% suck and are not worth using? I remember legendaries being more common than in the previous games, making it harder to decide which gear to keep on you. My loadout is full gold already and my bag is halfway filled.

If my character is level 60, which is the lowest level of gear you would use? I'm standing near my bank and trying to figure out what to leave behind.

Other question, would you guys say Mayhem Mode is worth it? For example, if I find some piece of gear I like and farm it, does Mayhem Level affect the drop rate a lot? Or affect that item's stats? I'm on level 4 right now and wondering if I should change it and to what level. And what modifiers are good/recommended? I'm reading the wiki and it says that some gear only drops at Mayhem Level 6 and above. Would it be a good place to start? I don't want easy mode, but don't want to suffer and have to minmax everything either, so definitely won't max it, at least not yet. I only play solo.

Also, regarding item level scaling, should I be leaving side quests for later, so I get max level weapon rewards? I kinda forgot how it worked, or if there's any loot from there that would be better than legendary items. Same with the DLCs, I was thinking about playing them by release date order, or should I go with a different one?

My last question would be, what does endgame look like here? I faintly remember farming some raid bosses in BL2, but that was such a long time ago...

Sorry if this is all over the place. Any help would be appreciated!

I originally planned to do a quirky animation, as the entire robot is rigged (the gnarly teeth pop out like a snake lol), but I need more practice with the fundamentals before attempting this.

What the highest damage output you've seen and how did you achieve it?

I just got a 792 M with Amara's remnant(?) near the bottom of her blue skill tree branch. I was using a plasma coil with a kill stack or my free radical.

โ” [ Question ] Best items for SNTNL Zane?

16 Upvotes

I know this has probably been asked and answered before. And there's possibly thousands of guides for it, however...

I get VERY limited time to play and when I do, it's with my fiancรฉ.

In short, is someone able up list some decent items and how to obtain them please?

The guides are so in depth that, amongst all the percentages and statistics, I can't make head nor tail of what I need.

We're stuck on Mayhem 3 and I'd really like us to be able to push a bit harder.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

โš ๏ธ [ SPOILER ] โš ๏ธ This game gets more hate than it deserves Spoiler

107 Upvotes

I have played all the borderlands games excluding the tina tinas game but from what I've heard is that it's different enough to not be included in the main series.

I have loved borderlands since BL1 and have beaten BL1 and BL2 with all characters on both games.

I want to start by saying I really enjoyed BL3 as a game but I do understand some of the story elements have their problems. Eva as a character is mainly the problem, but I would argue the twins aren't as bad as people say once you actually finish the game.

The beginning of the games paints the twins as arrogant and selfish (which they are), but once you get far enough along you realize that they were basically shut in's their whole life and never allowed to see what real society looks like.

We've already seen powered individuals become the bad guys with omni man and homelander. If you find the typhon logs it leads up to a fairly decent twist with you finding the mythical necrotafeyo and then learning about the twins heritage.

On top of all this the story of all the DLC are fairly solid in my opinion.

TL:DR This game got way more hate than it deserved.

I didn't want to kill him but he forced me (dude had strong punches). He seemed to have a little shield he liked to carry around. He spawned by this cot surrounded by beer. I'm assuming it's his home. Had a taste for swamp bloom ale. I didn't catch his name. Anyone know him?

Hey everyone,

Iโ€™ve played a good amount of BL3 and Iโ€™m trying to get all the achievements now. I already have a good amount of them from beating the game on 2 characters and the DLCs on one of them. My plan was to start just beating all the side missions and go from there. Just wondering if anyone had any tips for me going into this. Any glitches I might encounter? Things to look for? Really anything to help me with the experience or at least know what to expect.

Thanks!

๐Ÿ”ฅ [ Boss Melt ] Moze Iron Bear Only build [NUKE-M]

Thumbnail
youtube.com
5 Upvotes

Hey,

i made this build around 2022 i think, i revisited the game earlier this year and finally decided to share the build with others that i should have done years earlier.

the build focuses purely on Iron Bear & Nukes, it can do some damage with certain guns as well but that is not the purpose.

i made a short video of the damage it can do, but in the video the damage is not best it can output, since i forgot to equip Dark Army with Iron Bear Anoint.

i also have forgotten certain mechanics during the years, so i might have missed something else as well.

i hope you enjoy the "meme" build and if you happen to get greater output for the nukes let me know, thanks.

Back playing BL3 after finishing BL4 with two characters. To be honest BL3 feels MASSIVELY better and more enjoyable to play than BL4. Idk if its because BL4 hasn't been tweaked to a final version yet or what. But just feels like a chore to play. Am I alone in this or do you all feel the same?

๐ŸŽค [ Discussion ] Raging Bear is an underrated class mod for Gun Moze

25 Upvotes

The increase to Stoke the Embers (and by extension Fire in the Skag Den), is really good, and the fact that it can help keep Iron Cub up longer so you keep getting the benefit of its +150% gun damage annoint means it outclasses the Blast Master in a lot of respects.
