I really don't see that, but then again I played BL2 before BL1. Only played BL1 for about 4 hours, it felt and obviously looked horrible in comparison, couldn't carry on with it as I'm spoilt by vastly superior BL2.

So glad that I did not pay the full price for it then.Thats because its more of the same, similar to how Borderlands 2 just seemed like a DLC for Borderlands 1. The only one of the series which was really "different" from the others was Pre-Sequel , and that was also the worst selling of them. Borderlands 3 is Borderlands. A case of if it aint broke, dont fix it. I'm enjoying it immensely but then I've loved all the Borderlands , including Pre-Sequel
It will do whilst waiting on Trine 4

Have you played Tales from the Borderlands? It's well worth it, provided you don't mind it not being a "shlooter"!
Only briefly, maybe 30 mins worth , I dont seem to click very well with those Telltale games, but in order that I would understand the events of Borderlands 3 I read a summary of the Tales from the Borderlands, so that I would know what was going on with some of the characters

Yeah, they are more interactive stories than games. The ones I own I've largely played when too ill/drunk to play reaction based games.

A couple of weeks ago I got a few thousand points and some golden keys, I know that the keys are for opening that big chest on Sanctuary, what are the points for?
You can use the points on Borderlands.com for ingame rewards, skins and the like

Weapons too, though they are usually low level.

Yeah, the 3 weapons they currently offer are level 10 weapons...pointless.
looks like there is a borderlands month celebration going on and this week its an increased chance to get certain legendaries from certain bosses.

Eugghh *sigh*. Do they have to mess with the loot algos, really? Sort of messes with the fun and achievement if they're just going to slap a cheap cheat event on now and then.
Wouldn't surprise me if decent weapons come later that cost a load of points, but they enable you to buy points and get your gun without playing the game for them.

Speaking of cheating, I spent 200 eridian on the slot machine at Moxxi's and got 4 legendaries in total.
Looks like gambling is the best use for that currency hehehe!

Must admit, all but one of the legendarys I have, have come from those fruit machines

Aye. First legendary, first go on that fruity. Twas the Hex grenade. Got it at level 10 and it stayed with me until 22, absolutely melted everything and somewhat ruined the game for me until I unequipped it xD

It's an increased chance for one specific legendary for each boss and 2 of the bosses are an increased chance for Class mods. Very small impact as a whole and at first glance, the legendaries available aren't even that good.
A friend and I farmed the class mod bosses yesterday because he is desperate for a certain one and in the whole time no legendary class mods dropped lol. So it can't have been that much of a buff.

Ah so that's what eridium is for? I thought eridium was useless in this game, haven't used it once yet.

nice, did you get it farming the bosses with the increased drop rate or??
My friend is after the phasezerk mod for Amara, but not had any luck. I have some very decent lvl 50 ones but truth be told, I have been a bit of a no-lifer (every evening for the past 2 weeks lol) so have luckily managed to get the build enabling ones for Moze like the Bloodletter and Masterblaster.
