So I have played with all 3 trees with FL4K and I am currently lvl 33 and just beat the Grave Ward.
I love shotguns the most all around, leaning to Torque and Jacobs just like I did in BL2, but Torque have been ultra rare for me and Jacobs all seem to be 1 shot then reload which makes it tougher for how I like to play.
My favorite weapon so far specifically is the Masher Pistol which I loved the most in BL1 and it seems to be almost identical here and I am super grateful for that. It plays perfect to my playstyle and wish I could find more. I found 2 with 30 seconds of each other and both are lvl 23 and I am still using one at 33 as my primary weapon.
Anyone found anything ion BL3 that makes them forget about BL2 yet?
The Butcher and Lyuda are both monsters in Fl4k’s hands.
I’ve really been liking DAHL ARs though. Smooth and accurate at a distance and Fl4k already has all the dps they need.
I’m not sure but I think the mail rewards scale to your level. Don’t take me 100% on that. From what I hear Lyudas are a world drop and can drop from any of the Zer0 targets.
A Jakobs Pistol or Hyperion Assault Rifle are definitely my general favorites.
That being said, I have recently found that some anointed weapons can drop with the effect: “15% Life steal on Action Skill End”. Any weapon with this plus Rakk Attack is definitely a powerful combo.
I have seen lifesteal of 30% after attack command for a short time which seems nice. I am always having my jabber use his rocket launcher.
FYI at lvl 34 I found a smasher on Earl’s machine but haven’t had time to use it yet but it is almost 3 times the dmg of my old masher which I was still using even at lvl 34 so I am really excited.
I am on the last mission I think about to enter the last vault so we’ll see how it does =)
I honestly love the warlord or Luciano call. Night hawkin too. Pretty much always in fade away. Honestly with how good they are you often dont need fade away
Going to second the Warlord. Fl4k already has all the dps they need and that gun makes butter jealous over how smooth it is. Combined with the big mag it is fantastic for mobbing at a safe distance.
if you want to split your loadout down the middle with 50 % Vladof and 50% Jakobs I highly recommend you do King / Queens Call (Jakobs Revolver) - High Impact Low mag, returns 3 rounds o the Magazine on critical hits (Fade Away). - BOSS MELTER
Hellwalker - Jakobs Shotgun
It makes guitar noises. 1s Reload. Hits like a truck. METAL!
Lucians Call - high ROF Assault Rifle that returns 2 rounds to the Magazine on Crits. (Fade Away - NPC CLEAR)
