Okay, so my fanatic hunters, here’s the scoop;
I’m needing help with a little bit of loot data by way of popular opinion. PLEASE NOTE: There is NO wrong answer. Unless it’s a lie. Then it’s wrong.
But I digress…
The purpose of this loot data gather is for a unique event I’m helping to orchestrate with a fellow Vault Hunter for YouTube. I can’t give any details about it right now, apart from the fact that the data I gather will be directly involved with it.
So, sorry, no spoilers
##Top 3 Pieces of Loot You Want in Your Possession
(Rarity and gear type can be anything; i.e. Sham, Rubi, Invader, class mod, etc)
These 3 choices can be necessities to for how you play, favorite gear you use on any and every character, something you have yet to own, or the perfect piece of your dreams! However you choose is up to you and you can off more than one set –
##Just make sure that any submissions are In groups of 3 please!
Elusive Twister, at OP8, Rustlers prefix and a Jakobs grip and preferably Torgue or Hypreion stock.
A Hyde of Terra, OP8, grounded with all Maliwan parts
Then another (yes i’m greedy) Bekah, OP8 Boss with Jakobs grip and Dahl stock (would settle for Flush)
And i know you said 3 but i would really really really love a Diamond Weisenheimer, just because it’s such an amazing, powerful and rare as the Unicorn sh*t that it’s coated in when it drops … so yeah …
Hmmm… not character specific, and able to mix manufacturers? I’ve kept myself in this box for so long, thinking outside of it is tricky. If this contaminates your data set, pretend you didn’t read this; it’s not for everyone, but it’s damn fun.
Slag snider with Maliwan barrel. My primary choice for slagging tool. Ultimately Pimpernel after getting to max level and starting to farm best gear, but a regular slag snider with 69-79% chance to slag per shot is already sufficient for the job.
Lyuda. Sniper->accuracy, sniper->critical hit damage, Lyuda->OP firerate and great effect on top of that. I find sniping in Borderlands 2 to be very powerful in comparison to other weapons in game and Lyuda I think is best example for that.
Fastball. Love the grenade mod, because it still kills stuff on hardest difficulties and is fun to use. Also easy to refarm.
Let me give a little sales pitch for the Landscaper.
Here’s Maya rockin’ this combo on Southern Shelf (plain singularity though). She could, of course, just Phaselock the target and shoot it directly (the Landscaper can crit, but only barbarians use it like that). She could also just leave a trail of prox mines on the ground and kite him through them. Alternately, she can leave traps nearby and pull targets into the nest with closely-timed singularity grenades. If this grenade was thrown a moment later, it would have hit him directly; if it was a moment sooner, it would have fired too soon.
Here’s Zer0 rockin a Landscaper in Three Horns (using Execute instead of a singularity grenade). Zer0 could very likely kill this guy with a crit from the Landscaper coming out of Decepti0n, or could simply fire at his shield (where the splash from the shots/mines would still damage him). Lining up this shot so he eats a little Unf0rseen while he careens into the nest of mines is way more fun though.
No singularity grenade or knockback? Some enemies were made for this sort of thing:
Common items across all VH’s:
Lyudas, all flavors
Infinity pistols, all flavors
Grog nozzle pistol
Chain lightning grenade
DPUH
Antagonist shield
Bone of the Ancients
These three bits of gear that used the most consistently across characters are
the Hail ( what? You don’t say! ) - Rabid, no scope, shock and fire ( although I have corrosive and slag too )
Magic Missile
Bones
A pretty blah list, but those are always on board. Antagonist, Blockade, Chain Lightning, Conference Calls and Blockheads are too ; and Bekah and Twister are at the top of the wish list.
