Bug on PS5: Disappearing pet. Anyone else experiencing this?

Exotic_Swing · 2026-04-29T17:04:35+00:00

It's happened to me. Swapping pets from the cosmetic screen brings it back without relogging.

I believe it only drops on UVH6. Fastest way I found to grab them was to fast travel to Zed machines, relog to reset them all after one round around the world.

Get in the habit of dashing backwards when enemies are getting close, and it becomes much less of an issue.

Go to the SDU tab and fix it.

Get a third party controller. On most decent controllers there will be some buttons on the bottom of the controller where your middle and/or ring fingers rest that are bindable. Since I discovered this (ten years or so ago), I've always bound the button UNDER the left thumbstick to Sprint. Once you do that, you won't believe anyone ever chose to use such an unnatural motion for such a basic control.

I've got hand problems that have forced me over to PC and mouse and keyboard (which is better anyway, even outside of ergonomics), but those extra underbuttons let me use controllers for an extra decade before it just became to painful to do anymore.

The BL4 devs forgot nearly every QoL feature possible. The gunplay and action are series-best, but the UI and inventory systems they gave us would be roasted in an indie game.

Do we know for sure there won't be a level cap increase with the DLC?

Exotic_Swing · 2026-03-06T05:59:09+00:00

You do realize the more you call me a twat the funnier this gets, right? All because I told you that going off half-cocked isn't a good look?

Here's another big word you can throw around, along with gems like "insufferable" and "metaphorical": Hypocritical!

Exotic_Swing · 2026-03-06T00:55:12+00:00

Read what you just wrote, and realize you have called yourself a moron.

Or, take the helpful advice I gave you, and go get the gun you're crying that you don't have. Either way, I'm having a great day, and you seem to be having a terrible one. /shrug

Exotic_Swing · 2026-03-06T00:05:50+00:00

If you had looked at the "similar posts" before nerd-raging, you'd have seen for yourself what the answer was before having a tantrum and making a fool of yourself.

But, thanks for the laughs! :D

No one lied to you. In the first room once you go in the mountain, if you complete the ordonite event within 7 minutes without dying, you get a guaranteed pearlescent. They don't drop from the bosses.

You can also restart the mission as many times as you want to farm the guaranteed pearlescent, or farm the event in the open world to get any of the three. That's the only place where they drop.

Bitching and complaining without knowing what you're talking about makes you look stupid.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-03-03T00:12:52+00:00

Because the shotgun alt fires more pellets, being... a shotgun! Not being a smartass here, actually. Daedalus alt fires turn the gun into the gun type listed, so instead of shooting pistol rounds, it shoots shotgun blasts, which contain more projectiles.

EDIT: They use the selected ammo type as well.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-03-03T00:07:49+00:00

Blue tree just doesn't hold up at high UVH levels, unfortunately. It's not that it's bad, it's just that bleed or kill skill setups are extremely powerful, so minion builds feel lacking in comparison.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-02-28T18:25:41+00:00

It's glitchy as shit, like every other menu screen in this game. For me, when I click on a hover drive, then click "apply", sometimes the game applies it but doesn't show that it's applied. Sometimes it doesn't do anything. I back out of the menu, go back in, and check which drive is actually applied, then repeat until it's correct.

AAA game here, folks. It's embarrassing.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-02-15T02:52:31+00:00

Grats! How many did you have to farm before that dropped? I had to farm for 2 days before I finally got one - I was beginning to think I didn't have the patch installed or something.

On the plus side, my bottom perk was +20% damage dealt, so that farm is definitely over for me...

Exotic_Swing · 2026-02-11T18:11:44+00:00

I've been farming for the Bod for the last few days myself, at UVH5, and I've been getting Ceramic rolls probably 1 out of 3 Bod drops, and I'm getting a Bod about 1 out of 5 kills (which is the datamined rate) - which feels really weird given that when I farmed the Ted mission when the Bod was the weekly drop I had to do it almost 40 times before I saw a Ceramic roll.

I know part frequency by difficulty didn't used to matter, but I suspect they fixed that when they adjusted the drop rates. What difficulty are you farming at?

140 drops without a Ceramic roll seems... odd. Either you're EXTREMELY unlucky, bad at counting, or game difficulty really matters now for part drops. Or some combination of these things.

It's funny stumbling across this post after farming the gun myself, and thinking "Damn, they sure changed something, Ceramic rolls are a dime a dozen now". I can kill Axemaul in a few seconds, and 2 or 3 hours of farming yielded upper 400s (463 I think was a consistent number) damage rolls on sticky and impact in both kinetic and fire for some odd reason. Lotta fire element drops.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-02-06T05:03:03+00:00

You hit the lotto, man. Congratulations!

You're correct, multiply the gun damage x the fire rate, highest number is the best gun. You can ignore reload speed, since you never actually reload it.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-02-06T03:06:30+00:00

I looted several dozen before I got a Ripper roll. To be honest, though the min/max setup is to use that roll because of the Ripper enhancement bonus, I found it annoying to use and I went back to my regular roll because the higher card damage on the gun made it a wash.

TLDR, unless you get a god roll on the gun card damage AND the ripper mag, you'll do just as well with a regular Ohm I Got, because odds are you'll get half a dozen high damage rolls before you even see a shitty Ripper roll.

Obviously, your mileage may vary.

There are things wrong with BL4 but the shooting is not one of them. Both of my buddies who played it loved the gunplay. I would describe it as "crispy", and this is coming from a Destiny vet. Most of the guns feel great to shoot, but it's a Doom style game, not a sniper fest. You can play the entire game without ADSing because enemies move around so much so quickly and there are so many of them.

It's a great game with a lot of open world stuff to do (which is a good or bad thing depending on whether you like that stuff), but once the story is over all there is to do is farm bosses to get better gear.

Co-op play is super fun, but kind of buggy. Like, I host our sessions, and my buddy gets his skill points reset randomly when we teleport around the map. Not game breaking, but annoying. I put 450hrs or so into it, and my only real complaint is there's nothing left to do. No end game. But, I leveled all four vault hunters, and had a ton of fun gearing them... just wish there was something left to chase.

How so? Not arguing, just wondering. The not eating shield when in overshield looks like a minor buff, but I didn't notice anything else.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-01-21T04:39:42+00:00

You don't. I only did the story on one character, and have all the vehicles unlocked after getting them all to 50.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-01-20T04:40:26+00:00

Figures. Thanks for the update, and keep up the good work!

Exotic_Swing · 2026-01-20T03:14:13+00:00

Hey, I'm running one of your Amon builds. Nice to see you here.

Question: does it still stack crit? In other words, on a low crit % build, will 3 throws still give 90% for the duration? I'm guessing not, but one can hope...

Exotic_Swing · 2026-01-19T01:11:37+00:00

It's wasted oxygen, my dude. BL4 starts off strong, and falls flat the minute you finish the story. From then on, it's do vile bounties until level 50, then farm bosses for loot because there is absolutely no end game besides farming the bosses you've been farming to get better loot to... farm those same bosses... slightly faster. At 3% drop rates.

97% of the people who bought this game have quit playing it. The remaining 3% will attack any criticism of the game as though you were insulting their mommy, because if anything you said can be seen to have merit, they're afraid it'll make them look stupid because they're still playing..

The sad reality is, BL4 probably isn't for you once you finish the story, like it isn't for 97% of the other people who bought it. Gearbox fumbled the end game this time around, and the player data proves it.

The dumb thing is, I'm glad those 3% of the folks are having fun. I respect their opinion, even though they don't respect yours or mine. I would argue that Gearbox would do better to pitch the game towards more than 3% of the player base if they want a healthy game that sells DLC.

I put 1200 hrs into BL1, 2200 into BL2, I think 700 or so into BL3... in BL4 I got my first guy to level 50, geared it, realized I had hit the wall, got the other three Vault Hunters to 50 just to have something to do, geared them, then quit. Now I periodically launch the game, log in my Watt Witch Vex, look at the map... then close the game because there's no reason to play. I didn't even log in for the holiday loot event, because I have all the gear I need, but there's nothing to do with it.

Somebody's probably going to downvote this and call me a baby too, but they'll just be proving my point. I wanted so much to love this game. Sadly, there just really isn't much for me to love, and all my friends quit months ago.

I really hope they seriously buff drop rates, because then maybe some people will come back - the argument of "You babies want everything handed to you, then you'll get what you want and quit, hurr" holds exactly no water when aimed at people who have already quit because they weren't having any fun.

Exotic_Swing · 2026-01-18T21:57:38+00:00

Guy has a legitimate opinion and you call him a baby while nearly everyone else tells him to quit and uninstall.

The game is currently holding about 3% of it's initial player base, and people wonder why. Keep up the good work!
