No, not interested.

Definitely had my fill of BL2 for the time being, Tiny Tina will have to wait now until maybe Christmas-time.

So, started playing The Pre-Sequel with a new character, Lady Hammerlock. Have to say, I'm really quite enjoying it. The bouncing around and air boosting to get across the landscape is fun and her Frost Diadem power, even though it's early days, has potential with the cryo damage.

Lady Hammerlock gets better as you go along, really enjoyed that character.

God damn Lynchwood honestly. Had to do like 7 full loops of the place clearing it out to get 3 quests done. Super tedious.

One of the sherrifs announcements she refers to the city "Opportunity" but the subtitle says "Hyperion City". Interesting.

i always hate going there, one of those points where the levelling seems to jump quite a lot, you walk in with your badass build then get your backside handed to you by mere bandits.

You can skip it entirely.

Yep, I never bothered with it.

Funnily enough, it was during Lynchwood that I decided enough was enough and put the game on the back burner for a while. There’s just too many baddies that keep spawning.

yeah but it's a worthy xp grind if you can stick it to set you up for the rest of the game, makes the endgame a bit easier.

Exactly, worth a few skill points. Plus, you can do a few missions at the same time, saves a bit of time going back and forth.

Gotta learn how to be efficient - i can run through there in an hour!

Really hope they get round to releasing this. Been a while now and nothing concrete.

But the Sheriffs Badge is a filthy must with an Infinity Pistol.

I prefer a DPUH & Grog Nozzle with a Relic of the Ancients which adds to health and pistol ammo. Or twin Kittens with a relic that adds to health and AR ammo. Of course, I tend to play solo.

oh god yeah definitely, but for mid game, a run in Lynchwood to get a sheriffs badge and a few farms of Doc Mercy is my loadout for one slot, especially when downed. An endless amount of bullets on a target with no reload time I find invaluable. But yeah, Grog nozzle and DPUH is so cheaty it's game breaking lol.

Are the DLCs ony up and running after 50? Been a long time since i played through. Just finished the story but at lvl 33. Cant bring myself to play through again.

Nah you can run the dlc's at any time, generally i do them after each main plot run through

Psymonkee · 1 Oct 2018 at 16:01

I tend to leave the DLC until i need a level boost mid TVHM or to play in UVHM. No point doing them in normal as the gear will be underlevelled and the missions too easy.

DampCat · 1 Oct 2018 at 17:16

I suck at uvhm, it's too technical for me. Purpling before each shot, resistances etc. Just gonna brute force the storyline.
