You. Will. Die. Quite. A. Lot (BL2 NVHM Challenge!)

So I’ve been mulling this idea over in my head for a few days and it’s time to open up my brain contents to you fine folk weirdos! Welcome to the You Will Die Quite A Lot Challenge! :smiley:

If you’ve followed my posts in the ‘What did you do today’ thread you’ll know I’m a fan of rolling new characters and rolling through NVHM and with that in mind I came up with this idea!

Recently a certain @Kuolemanlaakso ran through the Sawtooth Cauldron at level 25 and faced Saturn at level 26. This simply cemented the idea in my crazy mind!

The Challenge:

Complete NVHM at the lowest level you can

The Conditions

Any Character
Current Game Version Only
No Abusing Glitches (ie going outside level limits)
No read only exploits on PC (not fair on console players!)
Lowest Level on defeating The Warrior wins some internet cool points!
Not a speedrun!
No dropping into a co-op session to skip to The Warrior - must finish all missions in Single Player
No handed down weapons from mules - luck/skill and game knowledge ONLY! (You can hand down some weapons for the purpose of selling ONLY since cash is understandably tight! :stuck_out_tongue: )

Absolutely no third party addons - we got in trouble from a mod for this coming up so behave (and don’t cheat!)

That’s all I can think of in rules for now. Obviously just for fun but lets see what you guys got! Must be some cool short cutting/enemy dodging we can manage? :slight_smile:

Have it at! :smiley:

Well if it relies on skill and knowledge, i’m screwed. But i’ll give it a go :stuck_out_tongue:

Also i’ll be praying for some kind of early legendary :smiley:

I’ve put my ninja obligations on hold for the month. I think this will be a great challenge to fill the time. Don’t expect me to be done any time soon, but I’m in. I know exactly how to do this…or at least I think I do.

Yeah, i’m very much the opposite. Just choose character and RUN FOR MY LIFE TO THE END :smiley:

That’s the spirit! :smiley:

I’m thinking Zer0 or Maya to be the best choice but it’s gonna depend so much on luck too! :smiley:

I can provide footage, I seem to play in smaller chunks now than before anyway. I was thinking either Axton (Turret can do some decent killing since I can’t pass stuff down), Maya for crowd control, or Krieg for the crazy.

Imagine Sawtooth at level 20… ■■■■ me…

Me too. I feel invincible in normal and true… lol

I will give it a go with a Siren.

This is the best strat.

See I’m not thinking Crowd Control - more like crowd melting! :smiley: (Cloud Kill)

Failing that Zer0 + Cloak + RUN AWAY! :smiley:

That’s my plan :wink:

Well we should all use different characters for the hell of it! We can compare notes on how it went etc.

Then I’ll go Maya! :smiley:

I’ll take Krieg now so i’m not stuck with Gaige. Gaige sounds a bit too useful for this. I want torture.

So win by setting yourself on fire? :smiley:

Oh wanted to ask, BAR off?

Ooo good question!

I spread my points evenly so other than minor boosts (I’m sub 20% on everything) it doesn’t make that much difference, right?

I’ll leave it up to each player - I think it’s a stupid enough challenge as it is already! :smiley:

My BAR is around 42% across the board on PS4 due to that stupid slag-licked bug. If we’re going to torture ourselves with Saturn at level 21, might as well do it with no BAR too… :smiley:

Krieg can just pop BxR and run away! :smiley:

I’m new here but this sounds like a lot of fun, since you are all taking different characters I think I will take a new Gaige :slight_smile:

Krieg isn’t definite. See what mood i’m in in the morning. May use Axton. Or Sal? We’ll see.

I can see that I will be stuck in the spawn point trying to kill the 4 commanders outside the elevator in sawtooth. lol
