I recently hit lvl 57, got through the Guns, Love and tectacles DLC on Mayhem 4 with little to no problem, using lvl 50 guns still.
Now i’m trying mayhem 6 to unlock those sweet new guns, but the jump in difficulty is quite big. I’m guessing a bit part of it is my guns still being lvl 50 (except my main gun, which is a lvl 57 Maggie with no annointments )
Builds obviously play a part aswell and i was wondering, if any of you have been able to solo reliably on mayhem 10? If so, which build were you using?
Standard seein dead build with barrier and drone makes it fairly straightforward.
Have been lucky though with getting kaoson from traunt that destroy most things, even using ki etic damage.
I’d adwise to try to get to the highest Mayhem you are able to clear joeys villa in. Jump into the end fight, kill the sub bosses and if:
-you have just killed a combination of Josie Byte or Franco Firewall and Fishslap or Tyrone Smallums then let yourself get downed and respawn
-you have another combination of sub bosses than the above you exit and restart at the mansion gate until you get the sub bosses you need
That way you will most likely get a yellowcake and a OPQSystem and can climb the villas Mayhem level to 10, getting M10 weapons. Then you can farm for the mayhem 6+ gear more easily.
I’m using one of the 2 builds I posted recently. The barrier/drone one was a bit too hectic for me in the long run, so I’m back to clone/drone.
Well you need to examine the loot, personally it worked out for me among others things I got my sntnl lob during pandora week. Due to scaling the number of weapons working is fairly limited but you can still get the classics fast
Most gear works on the build and you can either do executor or seeing dead. With seeing dead, have a hex grenade so you can proc it before a fight similar to seeing red or a singularity/quasar for crowd control. Shield/grenade you want ASE 50% elemental. Anointments go based off what weapon and how you decide to play the build. Just like everything, there is no right way. If it seems too weird of a playstyle I’d recommend getting with @Superfr34k for adjustments
Ive been using the new anoint while under 50% you deal 150% Rad damage on my OPQ and yellowcake and I walk through M10 like it’s nothing. You just need a deathless artifact or the shield that reserves 60% of HP
