Borderlands

Jack is incredibly OP when specd right. I didn't like Athena personally.

Nearly 100% on BL1 GOTY Remastered. The amount of times I've played these games, I just never get bored.

Both are great fun in their own ways.

Athena is a beast with her full shield skills.

Is Athena difficult to play though? The skill tree makes it sound like you really have to be on the ball, facing the right direction, holding the shield for the right amount of time, etc. Hmm. It's what I love about Wilhelm, just release Wolf and Saint, not worry about anything, just let them get on with it.

I think the same might be true with Jack and his digi-Jacks will just do their own thing and distract the enemies.

I mained Athena and loved it, I prefer a more active game, and god knows how other people defeated the last boss without a shield, haha

I had a good Shield with 50% elemental Resistance which helped. And the bugger didn’t drop a single orange item in the last two times I tried it. So only 33% success so far.

Not fiddly at all. Equip shield, tank enemies, three charged shield (it spins and glows wedge ready). I hit 3 mobs and ressed my co-op buddy in a single throw - awesome!

Probably the closest any of us will ever get to being Captain America

Pretty much!

Captain Pandora!

I’ve just got the skill which makes Digi-Jacks throw a copy of your grenade. I have got 4 levels to go before I can equip an orange cluster grenade. I can’t wait to see this, it’s gonna be mental!

Has anyone ever got a legendary item from these moonstone chests? I am wondering whether they’re a waste of resources really.

Free Borderlands 2 DLC will gel story with Borderlands 3

ic1male · 6 Jun 2019 at 11:57

I still never got anywhere near Overpowered mode. I think my highest character for BL2 is 50-something and now they're expanding it to level 80.

Psymonkee · 6 Jun 2019 at 12:08

Oh yeah! Just in time for my holiday no less!

Commander Lilith is back in action right now!

Yesterday, I started playing Borderlands GOTY (the new version) just to check things out. Ended up playing the whole day. Can someone remind when is the best time to do the four DLCs on this original game? Is it after playthrough 2? IIRC, if you do every mission on playthrough 1, you'll hit the level cap by the end of the main game.

i always did the dlc's after each playthrough, just felt kinda logical.
