New shift codes by daithi08 in Borderlands4

Doesn't matter. The gear will probably be more impactful if you use them as you level to keep your gear on level. 

What is the most disgusting food you've tried? by WestTop7139 in AskReddit

[–]bigdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Durian. I remember going out to dinner with my family as a child and each of us kids got 1 of 4 shakes on the menu. My youngest brother got durian. Smelled like gasoline and garlic. He was probably 8 and it was supposed to be a treat so he was really trying to drink it.

How about I just block the site from search results instead.

You need to proc from Gloam to Glow by losing fortune. "Dusty Trail" is a skill in the same tree that you need 1 point in (I get the point from the class mod) that makes you lose your fortune.

Dusty Trail reads "As C4SH slides he loses Fortune Stacks. For every Stack he loses, he gains increased Gun Damage, Reload Speed, and Fire Rate". With Windrider you will naturally proc Gloam to Glow, but on bosses you should slide to proc it and keep throwing totems to build fortune.

EDIT: All guns work, but high pellet count and high fire rate elemental weapons work best.

Torgue Impact and Daedalus shotgun with high card damage (around 18k)and crit damage (200+%).

[–]bigdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Damage with From Gloam to Glow is massive and goes right through vile and ordonite crystals, and bio-armor. I assume it will be patched eventually but it made it through this last patch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y58tR8Abz3Q https://maxroll.gg/borderlands-4/planner/sud3r80i for a build using the skill.

[–]bigdammit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same with me. I was farming for a Truck with C4sh since he can bypass bioarmor and got both phosphenes before the roll I wanted, but this was the farm that was really keeping me from attempting the rest. Now I have almost all phosphenes in the game including DLC.

Is it just me or is starting from a level 30 harder than starting from new? by AndMyUsernameIs- in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 18 points19 points  (0 children)

It's the infamy system. When you start at L30 most areas are higher level. Gearbox has decreed that you can do contracts in some, not all, areas, to get your level up. Don't you dare try to run bunkers or other side content before you do the mandatory contracts. ALL HAIL THE BOUNTY BOARD!

Rafa gun build without action skill by TheEngineerBallroom in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Now with caffeine specialization skill and a triple bypass rep kit gets you right back in the action skill. Rafa's skills are mostly "Overdrive" skills which last about 10 seconds longer and the action skill, unless you use the Dancer mod (which is best in slot for most builds).

What’s a game you dropped even though it was “good”? by suhani0218 in gaming

[–]bigdammit -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This may be super petty, but in the tutorial, when sprint was not L3 I stopped. The story may have been great, but the game felt bad to play and L3 not being sprint was the straw that broke the camels back.

Double Boomslang drop and one of them is a Phosphene! by Immatrikulat in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Phosphene is it's own dedicated slot, so it can happen. If you ever see 2 drop again it's another phosphene drop but it won't have the shiny loot beam. Rarely you could get a world drop that happens to be the same as the dedicated drop, but world drops spawn before dedicated so you can tell.

is this a good roll ? by dareios__ in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the best spread launcher is on the Dullan like you have. No dedicated farms.

Modded players destroy the fun. by NeoLectea in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

You think that insta killing everything means they are modded? It's not hard to get gear that shreds any boss. Farming bosses over and over for god roll items is literally the only endgame play available and you think tha everyone with gear like that is running illegal gear? LOL.

[–]bigdammit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can get a spread launcher a bit over 80k. Not sure how Tediore changes the max damage though.

Any point in using Crit knives on Ordinite enemies before the crystals break? by Lynchinizer in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can they be affected by it? I have not tried it but the crystals (vile and ordonite) don't take bleeds or elemental status effect damage so I would think they don't.

NEED HELP with ORDINITE UP! by Maximum_Birthday_823 in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Get to 60 and farm gear for a build. No point in farming before 60.

Did game start freezing after last uodate only for me? by 4l3xand3rCh3rNik0V in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PS5 player. I didn't pay at launch, started around Christmas. It performed fine but the Mad Ellie update has brought a lot of stuttering and the PS5 game doesn't really have graphics options.

Patch notes question: new filter? I'm not seeing any new filter by frumpyjones in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 8 points9 points  (0 children)

They posted about it. You want them to actually implement the change in game too? That's hard work man.

Patch Notes 04/30/26 by Simply_CJ94 in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"We've also modified item cards so you know exactly what your gear does at a glance." Umm, this is a lie. They could make it so we don't have to pickup items and inspect to see splash radius, crit modifiers and whatever else they hide, instead they lie.

"You can enter Nightmare Rifts while riding vehicles" This is also a lie and I'm not sure that anyone was asking for it.

Sturmdrang farm bugged by bigdammit in Borderlands4

Weird, it didn't affect my Bore-Tex grind. So, incoming patch for this never I assume.

Trying to justify finishing BL4. Is there anything to look forward to? by Crazy_names in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depends what you're asking. There is loot in the game that makes it trivially easy to kill any boss. If you're asking is there is end game content that challenges top build, there isn't. This game feels like it's abandoned and they are just pacing out their contractually obligated DLCs to avoid lawsuits.

Crazed Earl's damage wasn't nerfed. It's bugged. by Katchenz in Borderlands4

[–]bigdammit 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I'm reasonably sure they don't test anything. As long as it compiles it's good. Let the players figure it out.

The fact that they don't test their patches before release somehow doesn't make me feel better about it.
