Borderlands

just started a playthrough of UVHM yesterday after completing playthrough 2 at level 50 or 51, gaige anarchy build with infinity pistol/conference call combo wrecks most things but 1 kill of knuckle dragger showed me how poor these weapons will be starting off so need to find some better equips fast!
 
I have just made it to 72 on my first character, Maya, is it possible to solo the op levels in digistruct?

Yep and Maya probably had the easiest time of it too! Make sure to get plenty of good gear and retool every couple of levels. It's not something I've managed personally but it's certainly doable!

Pro tip: Explosive or corrosive guns or don't bother! (slaaaag goes without saying of course!)
 
Now I'm not on my phone and at the mercy of autocorrect I'll throw you a quick list:

DPUH - obvious DPS weapon
Pimpernal - Amazing sniper when paired with the Bee
Bee - Useful if you can kite/keep your distance
Grog Nozzle - mad healing skills!
Fastball - good grenade for speedy damage
Storm Front - as above, works really well with the Grog Nozzle
Butcher - high DPS shotgun

Not an exhaustive list by any means but grab that to get you started! Don't forget to pack a couple of different classmods to allow you to maximise skills as well!
 
I have a bit of a think for 'fire as fast as you can pull the trigger' large magazine shotguns.

I'm guessing elemental versions work well with Maya then?

Only Jakobs get the fire as fast as you pull the trigger gimmick but typically have tiny mags. They also don't come in elemental flavours at all!

Bandit guns have the largest mags but slow reload and useless accuracy/damage. My personal favourite is to use Hyperion shotguns with high reload speed - spits hot death everywhere! :D
 
You are right, I never through about that. Hyperion might be my ticket, some of them have very fast fire rates any way, and tend to have little spread. :D

hyperion shotguns are pretty good, as can be the pistols if you get a decent one with good enough base accuracy. never got on with their smg's though i think maliwan are the best there.

that said, there's something satisfying about torque shotguns, especially on a gaige build :D

Yes i remember teh pain of starting UVHM.

So I’m slowing down now on TVHM, finally got some good gear and want to enjoy it! Starting UVHM was always such a pain...
 
UVHM is starting to be a pain again, all my lovely level 50 legendaries and purples are not cutting it anymore. I'll switch to melee for Krieg, because this is ridiculous, some of the enemies now have millions of HP - literally. It's just silly, even with purple weapons. Probably need to experiment with my skill points, I'd stuck with bloodsplosion for ages because it was good fun but UVHM is filthy in parts! Bullet sponge is not fun.
 
I loved the first game, but the sequel never really appealed to me. I felt it lacked the atmosphere of the original.


The soundtrack is amazing!

Just remember to s.l.a.g everything. The Slagga is great for this and it doesn't really matter what level it is as you won't be using it for damage.
