Borderlands

lol nice one cath .  yeah dahl headlands is pretty easy, the only fight that may be half difficult is skagzilla but with a powerful gun, it goes down easier than cristiano ronaldo.  The mothrakk was piss easy with the 215 damage sniper, took about 20 minute but ha no problems.  Btw what character are you playing a, i'm playing as Roland.

Originally posted by Cloudy_Serendipity Same, Roland.  Nope skagzilla was easy. I doubt I'll have problems with mothrakk.  I picked up an old elephant gun type thing that does ~250 damage but the accuracy is shot so it's not even as effective as my combat rifle but that's probably because I've got a decent rifleman class mod at the moment.  I've got a couple of decent weapons for different occasions so we'll see how that works out. What level were you when you were at dahl headlands, and what are you now?  I think I'm 21, half way to 22.

 

Originally posted by Cloudy_Serendipity I can't remember exactly what the attributes are but it has ammo regen, increased damage and 1 other thing might be reciol reduction or reduced reload delay but I'll check what the %s are and maybe I can gift it to you as it's worth over $10,000 lol   UT3 duel?  Sure but I suck worse than a noob, just hit me up when I'm next on.   lol you and your song lyrics... sometimes I think you can't write your own material ;)

 

I have two refleman class mods... one is sh!t and the one I'm using is decent.

Well I was at work before but I'm home now so I'll add you on my Cloudy_S account and see if I can gift this stuff to you.  If this doesn't work and I lose my good stuff I'll be p!ssed off 

I have a repeater that does 54 with a +22% damage boost but the clip size is only 12 so I only have that until I get round to selling some stuff.  I'll say no thanks to the revolver unless it's worth some money.

Originally posted by Cloudy_Serendipity Ok well Mothrakk was easy.  I tried it first in a machine gun mounted car but I get that stuck on some scenery and it got blown up with firballs as I was jumping out lol but the second attempt I used sniper for the long shots and combat rifle until I had to run away from the fireballs.  probably took no more than 20 mins for both tries. Can't believe I got the fn car stuck   that just proves I'm crap in vehicles

 

No, not from the vehicle station.  I was running around the road area and on the ground near the turbines.  Did you canp in the vehicle station?

lol sneaky.  Nah if one of those fireballs finds it's way in anywhere you hide you're as good as dead.  I stayed out in the open and found that sprinting is a perfectly adequate way of avoiding them, and then when mothrakk started to fly away I snipered it until it got p!ssed off and came back for me lol then I used the combat rifle (because it pretty much flies directly to you in a straight line) until it started raining fire then I ran away like a pu$$y 

The Ghosts of the Vault mission was a close one for me... I nearly died those things are damn quick and evasive as hell

Tried turning them into roadkill? 

I'll probably jump a couple of levels today and tomorrow as I'm completing all the missions before I move on so when I get to the Reaver one I'll consider myself forewarned

Well I think so   If you like RPGs and you like FPSs then you'll enjoy it as it's a very good meld of the two game types

Eridian Promontory on playthrough 2.5 is the best place to go to level up your weapon profiency. You can get up to 17k exp on a supabad guardian. So its 4-17k exp per kill in there. Got all my weapon skills up to 50 in no time. Granted you have the gear to do so.

You're further through than me dude so I can't advise you there.  But I would say that when you make kills try to get critical hits as they will give more XP, and do as many missions as you can.  Part of it is levelling up and part is using the right weapons for the right enemy... no point using incendiary weapons against things resistant to fire.
