Hyperius/Bore/Zero on PS4

Borderlands 2 Zer0 the Assassin
#1

Since a lot of relevant posts are old I am not sure how to ask this without a new thread. So, I am readying my fight with hyperius as a solo zero UVHM and will be using the bore method. :grinning:

In doing my research I ran across some discussions that said the consoles do not have enough processing power to compute maximum multiple hit box calculationsā€¦ for maximum bore effectā€¦ can anyone confirm

  1. If this is true and
  2. Does it matter in trying to solo hyperius using the bore method lining up the loaders on PS4?
  3. Also, let me know if you have been successful solo zero bore killing him around level 55 UVHM on PS4?

DPUH /Bee/ Singularity Grenade additions or different guns used ? Peace! :v:

andā€¦ of course pre-loaded ā€¦ Thanks :sunglasses:

Hey there - got you moved to a more appropriate section. Not a Zer0 expert myself, but I will mention that most of the stuff about console is old enough itā€™s talking about PS3/360 instead of PS4/XB1. Thereā€™s quite a few active Zer0 players who can answer the rest of your questions though.

First off : Iā€™m on PC so have no direct experience with 2nd gen consoles ; also despite my many Bore kills on Hyperius, Iā€™m not in any way skilled at lining the shot up properly and have had a lot of fails.

Not true : Iā€™ve seen enough one shot Bore and Chain Reaction vids done by PS4 players to judge that it has ample processing power. Not as much as a good PC, but enough.

Not quite sure what you mean, but you need to have all 4 loaders lined up in a row in front of Hyp

The Bee can help fix a poorly lined shot, but shouldnā€™t be completely necessary. If you can keep it full, use it.
Iā€™ve found guns that have diverging ( Harold, Lyuda, Slagga ) or oscillating ( Interfacer, Twister, Tidal Wave - swear to god ) bullets to be the best.

Hello there
So Iā€™m playing as zero on ps4 and iā€™ve think to myself that boreing hyperius is much harder than seen in the videos on youtube etc. :thinking:
So it could either be more difficult on the console version than it is on pc or we are just bad at it :joy:
But it is possible iā€™ve done it numerous times myself on 72 and op8. Canā€™t say anything about nvhm or hyperius on lvl 55. I highly recommend the twister and dpuh to achieve good bore shots

Edit: Iā€™m always using the leg. killer or a stalker com and never used the bee if that helps

A small helpful detail : if you die and respawn at the vendor, thereā€™s a glitch that will sometimes prevent you from re-entering Hypā€™s arena.

You have to either leave Washburn and re-enter ; or save/quit/reload. The first method is faster as you donā€™t have to deal with a fresh bunch of loaders.

Yes, thanks for the tip I was wondering about thatā€¦ I am meandering around in the game now so polishing up my quality of gear first then mission test the gear then do the last battle and on to hyperius :acmhorror:ā€¦ then i will send a sit-repā€¦ :acmferro:
