What specifically are you talking about, and which character are you playing?

FL4K isā€¦basically broken right now. Zane and Amara have a much rougher time of it initially.

I can only assume heā€™s only trying to verbally demonstrate how big of anā€¦ ego he has since he didnā€™t put any info, nothing about mayhem 3 or TVHM or any concrete statements of which gearbox could actually use. For myself, I walked thru the game till about lvl 40 np but now 1 failed dodge on a rocket will almost 1 shot me on NM mayhem 1 so I think its fine. If that lets the OP feel like heā€™s better than me and that makes him feel warm and fuzzies, more power to you but I got a whole mode and 2 more mayhem levels to go still before I start complaining and besides, they will prolly add UVHM, overlevels or somethingā€¦ I mean donā€™t they always?

Personally, Iā€™m finding it a bit more difficult than the previous games (comparing first playthroughs) thus far. Not quite frustrating, yet, but a bit harder.

Perhaps he found one of the super OP weapons, like Night Hawken.

idk maybe i need to beat vhmā€¦ i did mayhem 3 circle of slaughter and there wasnt anything to itā€¦ granted i am playing fl4k but i didnt do anything but walk around while 2 moze used flak to destroy everythingā€¦ they basically 2 manned it (i got tired of tryin to shoot ā– ā– ā– ā–  cause i couldnt see due to the flak gun shots)

The game is actually harder than the previous games of the series.

Unless youā€™re using that broken mess of a robot named Fl4k that needs a nerf i really donā€™t know what youā€™re talking about.

You mean that itā€™s way easier to find legendaries? the actual difficoulty of the game? you need to explain yourself.

I think what hes saying is that the game isnā€™t fun because he and 2 other people with strong builds can kill everything easy on normal mode. Who wouldā€™ve thought?

I have actually found the game to be quite challenging on Normal, even with one other person. Either way, I have definitely been enjoying myself!

Well playing as Flak will do that. Iā€™m playing as Zane and Iā€™ll tell you itā€™s not ā€œeasyā€ if Iā€™m not mindful. Definitly seems a bit tougher though on first playthrough than prior games.

I killed all bosses but one or two on the first try on Amara, including sidequest bosses, but I certainly wouldnā€™t call it easy. I think it also comes down to how lucky you are with what weapons you find.

Same.

The only problem i had with Amara was the first annointed mid-boss.
i died a whole lot there but in the end it was my fault.

honestly i think its just fl4kā€¦ he does so much dmg it makes bosses trivial ā€¦ by the time i get out of stealth ive nuked what ever im up againstā€¦ id be tempted to go zane but i really wanted to play fl4kā€¦ i just didnt realize how broken heā€™d be

Every Borderlands is easy as Hell on Normal Mode
Starts to get Hard on True Vault Hunter Mode
A little More on Ultimate Vault Hunter
Raid Bosses on this Mode now turn into Raid Bosses

And kick your ass if you go with 4 people on Ultimate Vault Hunter

im rushing through vhm now so i can give mayhem a tryā€¦ see if it ups the difficulty someā€¦ i though the game was solid up until about lvl 20 then things got out of hand xD

Normally character with skills independent of them

like Roland on BL1, Axton on BL2 and Jack Doppleganger on BLPS are very strong on Normal but as the modes changes they drop on free fall on powerā€¦

The game only starts to get hard on TVHM as i said that is over lvl 40~50 woops on this case True Vault + Mayhem

Is this a troll post ? lol
This game is way more difficult than previous entries . Iā€™m finding the bosses and some of the heavies so ridiculously hard that Iā€™m tempted to shelve the game entirely. Is there any point in throwing such extreme Bosses at the player (Killavolt, Katagawa Ball, The Rampager, Agonizer 9000) that you literally canā€™t complete the game unless you get past them.

If Iā€™ve ever complained in the past about the difficulty of Borderlands 2, I wish to retract my beliefs lol, because Borderlands 3 is hopelessly and apologetically way more difficult to the point where Dark Souls looks easy by comparison

Iā€™m unable to activate mayhem in TVHM so normal is actually harder than TVHM.

you just need to rush to sanctuary III, there you can turn it on without completing the run - but yes, the difficulty feels quite the same
