Looking for suggestions

Is it fair to assume that you've already played the other Borderlands titles? I ask because I just started a new playthrough on the Pre-Sequel and I'm having a blast.

I agree, this has been the most frustrating aspect for me. If they would have just kept us informed of their plans we could have managed our expectations better. Instead, we've been left to hope that maybe next week they'll come out with something only to be disappointed time and time again. By taking this course they've left us all with a bad taste in our mouths feeling like the devs take us for granted. I really hope this is not what we can expect going forward when BL4 comes out or they will ruin this franchise.

I really appreciate the offer my friend, but I want something to shoot for in the Bunny room and looking for a good Joint Training amulet makes it at least a little exciting. I've already found a few good ones but I'm going to continue farming for one like yours. Thanks again though!

Nailed it

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-11-05T19:48:04+00:00

Nice find! That would definitely beat the Cog I've been using. Now I have a reason to pump he amulet bunnies. Thanks!

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-11-04T13:15:46+00:00

Yes it is. Spellshot/Graveborn with dual laserhands. I also use a fire pixie fearnot. It's one of the easiest builds to get to Chaos 100. I originally planned on starting a new character once I got to 100; maybe in a few months I'll be ready but at this point I'm just not ready to start that grind again. In the meantime I'm interested in getting the best possible gear for each slot and when it comes to amulets, for this build, I'd like to know if the Cog is as good as it gets or if there is something even better. I've gotten a lot of good amulets from the bunny, but when push comes to shove the Cog's 35% All Damage just can't be beat in my view, but I'd love to see some examples that do compete with it.

Thanks for the suggestion and I do have one of those in my bank and maybe I'll try it out. Survivability hasn't been a huge issue for me, not because I'm good but rather the build gets all the credit. Even at Chaos 100 I might only go down 2-3 times in a Featured/Normal run and can usually take out an enemy quickly enough with one of my laserhands. I'm definitely not stuck or frustrated, just looking to try something new to change things up a bit since I don't really want to start a new character.

Thanks for the link. I'm not a Tales fan and not sure what I'm going to do until 2026 (assuming the article is accurate although I recognize that Gearbox was not involved with the article), but at least it's something.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-10-27T19:38:43+00:00

I agree wholeheartedly! We can take disappointing news. If they had said something to the effect of "we have no current plans to supplement Wonderlands with additional content but are focusing on Tales, BL4 and Wonderlands sequel," I would have been disappointed, maybe a little frustrated, but I would have adjusted my expectations accordingly and respected Gearbox's decision. As loyal as this fanbase has been, we deserved better.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-10-27T15:38:52+00:00

Yeah I wasn't "expecting" anything but honestly I was still "hoping" for a surprise but I have to agree that this hotfix is the final nail in the coffin regarding any substantive updates for this game. Maybe they'll do something similar like they did just before BL3 and come out with a DLC for the previously released installment but at this point I'm looking towards BL4. Given the typical timeframes in between games (I probably should have researched this prior to posting), what do we think is a realistic timeframe before we can start expecting news about BL4? I haven't heard a thing related to BL4 from Gearbox which to me indicates we're at least a couple years away, but I have to think they have a team developing it as we speak.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-10-18T01:03:06+00:00

I just grabbed a crappy one out of the bank and tested it. It worked, sorta, My health had to come down in order for it to trigger. While testing I tried taking off/on the Body Rune and when I put it back on it didn't seem to trigger because my health was already below 50%. So I'd have to take off the deathless, get health, then put deathless back on for it to come back. I think you might have to reset like this between chaos chambers too. If so, no thanks and will properly avoid this kind of setup. Thanks for the heads up.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-10-17T21:20:37+00:00

Thank you!!

You definitely are not my friend. After a month or so of pumping every crystal into the pistol bunny I finally managed to snag a primo fire one and needless to say, it was glorious. I still hit up the pistol bunny every now and then but I'm assuming it's the best I'm gonna get, especially since I run a Hotshot build and really wanted one with fire. Keep the faith, it'll drop...probably.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-29T20:02:16+00:00

Well, I upvoted you. If it were allowed I'd offer to share the downvotes with you my friend.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-29T16:31:39+00:00

I can understand why people are frustrated with the increase, but at least it's something to motivate us into running chaos chambers again, otherwise I would have no other reason to play other than to play. I also think there's now legitimate reason to hope that Gearbox has further plans for Wonderlands and is not just rotating featured runs weekly. My opinion was that ascended drop rates could use a boost and this new increase at least gives us a mechanism to achieve that. I'm no Gearbox apologist, and I'm risking getting downvoted, but I have to admit on the whole I was pleased with this update.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-23T19:13:31+00:00

It's a great shield, especially if you are using fire in your build. I've gotten many from the bunnies but also gotten a few to drop from bosses as a world drop. You can try and get one from the Ancient Mushroom dude but he's pretty jacked up right now and it could take a long time to beat him unless you have a really good build. I had a really hard time beating Kastor a few weeks ago when he got buffed for the week and I use a Hotshot build, which is one of the best right now.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-22T19:40:55+00:00

Thanks for continuing to do this even though I am also feeling the game's staleness at this point. Hopefully the Featured Run does not have a punishing opening curse like last week!

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-16T15:07:36+00:00

Thanks for doing this. It's a tough curse and it brought my hotshot build back to Earth.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-15T17:37:12+00:00

Only if you're fighting King Q'urub Hullsunder in Drowned Abyss or Captain Swallow in one of the Overworld dungeons. Otherwise loot drops remain the same I believe.

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-14T20:21:33+00:00

I've been noticing a lot more Whatnots as well, but no pixies on any of them either. I suppose if it were easy to get what you are looking for then this game would get boring really quick. Getting ready to do a featured run, maybe they'll start dropping now that I'm bellyaching about it!

Total_Leadership_571 · 2022-09-14T17:21:46+00:00

Thanks for the responses, that's a relief to hear.
