This build was thoroughly tested by me in the Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode.

It focuses on upgrading Deathtrap to its most efficient form, while Gaige supports him from behind cover with a barrage of bullets.

• Close Enough [5/5]: Ideal to shoot and slag enemies, while you cuddle yourself up behind a nice cozy cover.
• Cooking Up Trouble [5/5]: Healing yourself, while taking a nap behind a cover is surely a nice thing.
• Buck Up [1/1]: Great to get up your shields in every situation (Queen Bees like it too).

With the addition of the level cap and the ability to build down further into your skill trees, would anybody like to see some new Class Mods that take advantage of that ? There have not been new class Mods since the base game and I think some new ones could breath new life into certain builds. Your thoughts?

As you all know, Axton can use a Turret to kill enemies, and Gaige can use Deathtrap to kill them.  So my question is, which is better, Sentry or Deathtrap?

So I recently beat Borderlands 2 and want to play it again on true vault hunter mode. However, every time I try and do it, the game freezes. Not right away, but a little bit after the first scene. You know when after Claptrap discovers you, he says "I can finally get my central processer repaired so I stop thinking out loud! I wonder what its like to have a bellybutton?" The game goes fine until the end of that sentence. Claptraps audio cuts out just before the end of "bellybutton," and he stays in one spot waving his arms around. I can run around, but only for like 30 seconds before the game and system freeze. Is this an issue with the disc, the save file, the system (PS3)?

Right now the wiki has one article for each elemental type of area of effect grenades: Tesla Grenade (Shock) / Cloud Grenade (Corrosive) and Burst Fire.

The three should be merged into a single article called "Area of Effect" or Area of Effect (Grenade). AoE grenades are the only exception where each element has its own page (for example there isn't a page for fire MIRV and other for corrosive MIRV -explanation of this below in the blog update-) ^{EDIT: please see Fire Burst Grenade _fry} and even if the effect of Tesla is slightly different to cloud and fire burst that can be covered on a single article.

The game makes no difference between them for counting toward the AoE Grenade challenge and the Payload (which determines grenade type) is the sa…

After seeing some psycho class specific loots today, I started wondering if they included partial or the complete loot table for Krieg. Apparently yes because some players got their hands on the Legenday psycho class mod. I tought I could get my hand on the purple quality head skin dropped by Geary. Yes, it drops. Get ready for farming folks, let's prepare our Krieg experience to be even more badass !

Update v1.5.0 (Released April 18, 2013)

General

• Added support and compatibility for upcoming content, including character customizations unlocked by playing Poker Night 2.
• Fixed an issue where bank and stash capacity could be exceeded. This change prevents additional items from being added to stash / bank until capacity is below the maximum -- it does not forcibly remove or delete any items.
• Added a preview of available premium customizations when using a customization station so that players can see what a purchased head or skin would look like before buying.

Hey everyone, welcome to the page!

So, this build is a fairly balanced build that I've been using for a little while now. I originally wanted to do a shock build, and it eventually turned into this.

As you can see, the build centers around Deathtrap and shock damage. Its also fairly tanky, too. As a result, you can do fairly well at nearly any distance.

So, lets get into the details.

SKILLS

Little Big Trouble

More Pep - 0/5 - See below. You could put a point into this if you had a class mod that boosted it, but its a lesser option apart from that.

Myelin - 5/5 - Basically, More Pep is awful. It doesn't provide nearly enough benefits to make it a decent option. Myelin give you a little more shield and less of a crippling weakness to electricity.

With the announcement that Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode is coming to Borderlands 2 it has become necessary to update the mission infobox template to accommodate the third level and rewards. As a result of this all mission articles can now be considered a stub article in need of infobox updates, whether they are currently tagged as stubs or not.

To update pages simply add the new fields

| level3 = | rewards3 =

... to the infobox below the level 2 entries, but only if you have the data to supply, or are updating a Borderlands 2 mission article for some other reason - we don't need extra page edits just to add blank fields.

I look forward to seeing the data roll in.

Additionally I have updated the level 2 entries to display "True Vault Hunter Mode"…

• 2nd April: Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode = US$5 or Season Pass
• mid May: Krieg the Psycho playable character = add-on content
• end June: fourth DLC, the biggest ever = US$10 or Season Pass

Missed the first twenty minutes or so of the community stream, not sure if date for level cap increase was announced then, but it was not for the subsequent forty minutes.

Teaser trailer for fourth DLC shows Tina as DM for her D&D with Brick plus Lilith plus Mordy. or some such.

I've seen many other class builds for the siren, but I nether completly agree with the support classes because they seem to turn over to power, eventually. I will say that the goals in my class build was to help your teammates, and to keep yourself alive, because your no help at all when your dead. To see the build, copy and paste the link here : www.bl2db.com/skill-trees#zmVVovVxVqm

Now, to start my explanation, let's visit the Harmony skill tree. This is what many just refer to as the support tree because 4 of it's skills help friends.

So, in my first tier of this tree, I maxed out Sweet Release which gives health orbs to you and your injured team mates when an enemie who is Phaselocked is killed. Self explanatory why I picked that. I then…

Seriously ladies and gentlemen. What is wrong with BL2? Been seeing so much crap about it being not as good as the seconded. Not as good as we thought it was going to be. Well you are wrong ;). Borderlands 2 is amazing period. Here are my reasons

Bigger and better maps.

The maps on borderlands 2 are BIGGER and BETTER. The free roam on the new maps are literally better than life itself. The detail that is so evident in the seconded borderlands compared to the first is so clear.

Enemies and bosses.

This might spark some controversy. I think that the enemies in BL2 are better than BL1 especially the bosses. I think that the bosses. Are harder and need more methodical tactics too. For example the "BNK3R" was for me the most mentally challenging bo…

What is the chance of getting one of the guns that are dropped when you defeat the creepers in the minecraft Easter egg (which is fucking amazing). I went in there for the first time and then only received skin packs. How many guns are possible to get. Also can you use the Easter egg twice (I'm way to lazy to find out). Does anyone know the ratio of the creeper dropping the actual guns and skins? Some help would be great. Really would appreciate it. Thanks.

I've seen people complain in many places about exponential scaling making Borderlands 2 weapons obsolete too quickly as you level up. It is true that the growth in weapon damage is faster than in the original Borderlands, which had a shallower damage growth function, especially at higher levels.

If you want the effect of a difference in levels to have the same gameplay effect, regardless of what level you are, then exponential scaling is exactly the right choice. If you have a gun that does 10 damage and the bandit has 100 hit points, the game will play the same as if your gun did 10,000 damage and the bandit has 100,000 hit points. If your gun does half as much damage (due to e.g. being underleveled), the gameplay effect is the same in both c…

I've been wanting to write this for a while, but I've been mostly AFK from the wiki the last couple months. The truth is that, for me, BL2 was a huge disapointment. This is my opinion, and you are free to not relate, but I really hate this game, which makes trying to contribute to the wiki harder.

• 1 BL1 was my favorite game ever
• 2 I hate BL2
  • 2.1 The gun play is boring
  • 2.2 The game is about getting the *Best* loot
  • 2.3 Exponential growth means your guns suck
  • 2.4 The characters are fucking boring
• 3 Conclusion

I like to think of BL1 like I did Diablo 1: Both are my favorite games ever. They are rather simple, the *actual* gameplay is fun (*really* fun). You don't need to worry too much about end game, cookie cutting or what not. Getting loot is fun, but the …

Damage: 78

Accuracy:66.7

Fire Rate: 13.4

So if anyone has any info on this gun, please let me know.

Legendary Warrior

This build is set to fully utilise the "Legendary Soldier" Class mod, which provides up to +5 skill points into each of the tier 1 skills.

The build allows for maximum turret damage, whilst providing more protection and damage for Axton himself. It can provide boosts in near death situations, and allows for Axton to escape fire after obtaining kills, resulting in many lucky escapes. Overall, the build provides a huge amount of bonus damage from Axton and both of his turrets, whilst maximising the time that they both stay alive.

If you have any changes to suggest, let me know in the talk section!

Credit for this build goes entirely to Atroization. I started using this build shortly after reaching level 50 with my Mechromancer and I've been a dominant solo player ever since. This is a very aggressive build and the most effective one for Gaige that I've ever seen. Assuming you play it right, you wont be sitting back waiting for your shields to recharge. You burn bright and fast, keep up your momentum and you will rarely lose a battle.

The revisions for UVHM were devised by myself. As my standpoint is different from Atroization's in several respects, and UVHM's mechanics impact many options significantly, you may find your own twist on this that works better for your playstyle.

Hey there!

hey guys! i just wanted to take you trough my axton build, because, well, maybe you like it.

go to the next picture when there is a white line. like this.

1. My main gun: The KerBlaster . i have been using it for a while now, and i tottaly fel in love with it. i have always loved Torgue guns, but this one indeed has a crapload of BOOM!. Also, i found that this was the best AR to use with offensive gameplay.

2. My backup: The Hornet. I chose it because of its midrange capabilities, and i dont always fight on short range, for example when i have low health. and because the KerBlaster goes trough your ammo like a fat kid trough a cookie store.

3. The Lyuda. This is typically what you call, a bigass gun. i choose it for ripping apart bos…

An article from co-optimus.com

There is no doubt about it: the Borderlands 2 community wants a level cap increase, and they want it now. Unfortunately for them, this will most likely not be included in any future Borderlands 2 updates and for very good reasons. Lots of DLC expansions have come along recently for Borderlands 2, but nothing that granted the most wished for addition of avid Borderlands 2 players out there: a decent level cap increase. Sadly, Gearbox stated that this increase will not possible with the current game engine, and would most certainly break the entire game if implemented now. Though this has worked in their much simpler game, Borderlands 1 (its DLC had bumped the max level from 50 up to 69), but much has changed from…

When i was bored, i decided to download an inventory editor. at that moment, i didnt realized that those are actually a great source of information! so what i did was, make all gun types and brands (at blue rarity) to have the gun PARTS matching the manufacter. And since the stats on BL2 guns are fully dependent on the parts, (for example, vladof parts will increase the guns fire rate) i tought it was quite usefull information. so ehm, here you go!

I just noticed in a recent edit to the Twister that we have a markup tag {{dash}}. It translates into entity 8211, the n-dash, for which we already have internet-wide encoding for, – (or – if you prefer). This is some really incredible redundancy.

Now I'm a developer, I understand the need for technical delineation between all the hyphen-like characters. But having an extra alias just for this seems silly to me. Does it do something else I'm not aware of? Why do we have this markup tag?

The Level 50 Bullet Storm

• 1 Overview
• 2 Skills
• 3 Weapons
• 4 Alternate COMs
• 5 Tactics

Yes I know this build is not the Gunpowder build that is all the rage now. I know ARs are among the worst weapons in game but I won't let their subpar performance stop me from completing TVHM and 2.5 with them.

With that out of the way, I will get to the main meat of the guide. The gist of the build is simple, to lay down as much firepower as in the shortest possible amount of time when the turret is up with kill skills.

After the first kill, kill skills will ramp up the DPS significantly. Turret has to be in double up, so as to allow you to apply even more DPS without you having to switch over to a Slag weapon.

The build sacrifices survivability for more damage. Even the…
