This game is great. Especially when you are dicking everyone else over. Doom kept blowing up the other car and driving away. A++

Roland 26
Lilith 12
Brick/Mordekai 1

also hell yeah

also great was the zone where running into enemies would make the cars randomly explode so I'd just huff it to tag the next quest marker while you dudes got raped by giant spiderants.

So getting 100% reduced Sentry cooldown only actually cuts it down to like 20-30 seconds.

Which is still enough to have it ready to win every fight and to deploy it 2-3 times for hard fights. Thumbs up.

Fuck you Doom you blew up more than half of the cars. Also Roland is the best class but Brick punches everything to death, especially with explodo fists.

Yeah it's really hard to drop Roland's infinite ammo and absolute control of most situations for anyone, especially since everyone else sucks shit for the first ten levels while Roland gets the option for infinite ammo at level 6.

Yeah, without reliable Roland drops about halfway through an area you are trying to manage ammo. With Doom and Constantine we didn't have to do that.

Skagzilla uses his really long laser breath animation.

You get behind him and spam melee as Roland

You do 5% of his lifebar each time.  :nyoro~n:

Or you shoot him in the laser hole.   :perfect:

Nikuko the Siren is a svelte 26, and much more fun now as mentioned.  Sogeking the Hunter just got to 11 with buddies, and can actually aim some weapons.  My other two wallow in barely played starterness so far.

If you are going to play this game, for the love of fuck get Vent.  I am looking directly at Mr. Saturn who I will refuse to play with ever again until we can scream at him.

Lilith is my favorite character now that I've tried them all.  I really wasn't expecting that.

OK FINE I GOT VENT (and i thought i was doing better on the DONT RUN AHEAD AND GET EVERYONE DEAD thing today)

Also got my brick up to 15ish and just got the first elemental mod (MY PUNCHES ARE NOW ELECTRIC)
i was under leveled for that quest which ended up causing me to fight a fuckton of alpha skags that were 2 levels above me (the trick is to punch em in their unarmored butts)
my lillith is 22 and more or less always triggers elemental hits

and it seems that the class mod things that add to skills only effect skills you have a point in already

So... you go through your ammo 66% as fast as you would normally? Or do you basically have unlimited ammo as long as you're only using that weapon?

Unlimited ammo with that weapon

Has anybody else been able to hurt other players with the vehicle rocket launcher?  Malikial did it somehow last night, and all we can figure is that because he was technically too low-level to actually have a car, the game somehow registered it as belonging to an enemy.  Or... something.

We found that out after he blew his brother halfway across the Arid Badlands.  P.S. I love the speed boost on Lilith's skill.

The Rocket Launcher deals no damage to other players.

ANY explosive barrels of which there are several kinds in many places however, will not only wreck other players but other vehicles in record speed.

Me and Smiler duo'd to 30. In my defense, I was sick as a dog and doing non-Borderland things became a lot less possible than it was when I went to bed in a healthy state of mind. Presumably I won't be around after 9:30 PM tonight anyway and as King Support I'm all about helping other people catch-up, so :shrug:

Thread Suggestion and Dire Bro-Tip: If you find a purple/mod that is level 25 or lower and has insanely good stats(particularly a high Elemental modifier), maybe post about it before you trash it? Also particularly if you find an orange.

Nikuko is sitting pretty at 32, Sogeking sniped his way to 19, and .. Meking Fuque and D. Spencer will surely get their due someday?

OK so I started things with my infamous double play. Ride along in a four-man, two-car team to the distant quest location. Quest finished, I shoot the other car and blow it up and then ride off in the sole car, cock-blocking three people into walking to the nearest car-station simultaneously.

So we all begin eventually trying to sneak this in on each other.

And then Smiler and Constantine pull it on me, so I huff it back to the car station. It's near a drawbridge + cliff.

They push me off the cliff and drive off. It is the longest possible walk.

I am powered entirely by hatred and vengance.

And soon.. soon I introduce the terror of the teleport hi-jack, so that a man cannot even hop out of his car for two seconds and grab a tape recorder with peace of mind.

Apparently if I ever want to level at a decent rate, I need to quit my job or something.  I just hit ten last night.
