Have you got moxxis 2 submachine guns? One is corrosive and the other is burning. If you haven't got them yet, just keep donating money into the tip jar at the bar. Both of them are very good weapons and scale with your level.

I dont know why you're complaining about that shield, its rediculously good for its level.

I did it with Gaige with little difficulty but it was harder with Axton.

I did it solo, but it was pretty hard. I found the main problem was running out of ammo, especially for my sniper rifle, which is the weapon i use most.

Try to get only critical hits if you can. Aim for the part where the arm joins the body of the loaders and usually if you blow both their arms off they are dead. Also if you have corrosive weapons use these as they work well against loaders.

There is a container you can run in to avoid nukes etc from the constructors. The one with the banner hanging over the front is a good one to use as the banner actually stops bullets :p. It gets torn to shreds after a few rounds though.

Im mainly using my sniper corrosive and elecy for the sheilded jet loaders ill have another blast in a bit.
 
I think its not so much sniper rifles being **** as it is the Gunzerker being 10x better than Zer0 and shotguns dishing out 10x the damage of sniper rifles.. The Critical skill at the end of his tree is pretty shocking. A nice buff but deteriorates so fast its useless. Plus half the enemies are that agile its almost impossible to snipe them in the head (looking at you Stalkers!). Comparing that to Overkill from the Gunzerkers first tree which made my sniper rifles regular hit damage go from around 8k to around 40k per body shot and can make any weapon deal stupid damage. My Zer0 struggles to get higher than 100k-200k criticals. My Gunzerker has already hit 1.5mil with a sniper rifle!
 
Had an utter nightmare finishing off flynt (silly phone :p) because no matter what weapon I used I could barely scratch his health but easily destroyed his shield!

In the end I was shooting him with an explosive tediore pistol and throwing the gun at him!

I've used a couple of golden keys and have decided they're best used in the early to mid 20's. Before that stuff you pick up will usually suffice and after that you can get some nice stuff in toilets and Hyperion capsules.
 
Im beginning to struggle with Zer0 at level 39. Im being killed in one hit, taking 8-10 critical hits to kill an enemy and having to kite them across half the planet.

Made worse by the fact I swear he makes most of it up. He's already basically said he cheated on BL1 and half the posts make reference to some of the most overpowered legendaries BL1 had to offer like the Maliwan Volcano or the Combustion Hellfire.

Don't the E-Tech Sniper Rifles like the Railer use 2 ammo per shot though?

no, these guns were readily available in the 1st game, you just had to play it loads and loads to get them and i only had God Mode in the 1st game, you cant cheat the weapons in Borderlands, not after the first patch years ago

i dont have the 1st game anymore, i havent redownloaded it from Steam after building my new rig and i dont have the save data either, great shame because i'd love to wipe the smug grin off your face !

Zero has for more Critical hit damage than 100k to 200k, because i was getting 600 to 800k yesterday, i tested the guns in Marcus's shop late last night on the guy tied to the dart board.

the critical hit damage seems to rise the more you strike the head, because i used a 20 round 145000 and it went 200 400 600 800k or similar.

it looks like you dont have Zero maxed out as good as he could be.

yea Zero stuggles all the way through the 2nd playthrough, it's just so damned annoying, the best way is to make sure you do the side missions and never let the AI rise too far above you.

i wish i played as Gunzerker now, i have him at level 5 but just cant face repeating this damned game all over again.
