I tested this on Proving Grounds Fervor M4. I can now run Sitorak and 1v1 those badass aggro tanks using a Redistributor (not the best gun for 1v1). I can see my hp filling up then my shields recharging.
Prior to this com, when I run a Blast Master with Sitorak, I just die quickly.
Spoiler alert for farming below:
Also I found a good early place to farm for legendaries including the new com. It’s right afyer Cursehaven - Olmstead Square. There’s a bunch of triple red bar enemies there.
Edit: I was fighting inM4 with an enemy mod of extra 40% weapon dmg and lvl 53 gear
I did a couple of runs with this Empowered enemy in Negul. His drops aren’t any better than Amach in Cursehaven. If we are nitpicking, Empowered has immunity (not a big deal) so he takes longer to kill (not a big deal again). It also takes longer to go to him unlike Amach for first timer and people who are running for dlc2 first time.
i saw 1 sapper, 2 stones, and about 30 trainers in my playthrough+farming yesterday.
i think they did the opposite as dlc1. rather than push the COM for your class it pushes one for a different class. the zanes i was watching yesterday were mostly getting sappers.
its likely the same reason that goliaths are horribly unrealiable in farm; they can’t change loot priority based off of level/stage, so higher versions of the target get the same loot as the base.
Xam and Tom are really good farm it seems. There’s a savepoint on either side of the room right next to them and it’s a very easy kill, they are dropping me multiple DLC drops each time.
