I'm hoping to be on Saturday night around 8 pst... it would be great to see a few of you guys on to help out.  If not no big deal. I'm not in anu huge rush. I tried crawermax by myself today and one of his scythids kicked me off he map lol... I've decided to wait after that happened.

When I first started playing, I really liked the soldier and the beserker.  But once you start playing and looking at the different powers and what they can do, the Siren and the Hunter are the best imo.  The siren b/c you can make her bullets have elemental and daze effect not to mention the phasewalk.  And the hunter can tear some enemies up w/ you hawk powered up and set to drop additional loot.  Soldier comes in a close 3rd b/c he can make ammo obsolete w/ his character mod, and the beserker is last for me.

I'd be willing to assist. My soldier is lvl 61. I'll be on tonight after work.



On another subject, recently started playing with the siren and was surprised with how the game played.  It's almost like a whole new game. I got her up to lvl 31 and coming to the end of my first playthrough. Can't wait to playthrough with the hunter.

No, you need all 4 of you to fight him.  I'll dust off some Borderlands to play again.  It's been a while now.

LOL...

Thanks Pin, but unfortunately I think Crawmerax is a bit out of your lvl.  But if we can manage him with 3, you can always hop in and probably get some crazy exp lol...

Well if you have a low level character keep oldskool out of your game or he will just get bored and try to run you over with cars and cancel all your transports  :LMAO:

Keet - I did the whole 2 play throughs by myself and with a friend, helping them - so I'm all about having fun with it now, I was boosting a Siren and got it to level 20, just on one run to Knoxx - basically was not much help on the run, but man the experience was great! The best way to get a lower level up - kill drifters - even at level 61, I'm getting close to 5K per kill so it would be way higher for a lower level.

Since I've played through it almost 3 times now - I'm all about the guns and I was starting to find some nice stuff on my own or with a friend and then we woul just dupe the best weapons - the way I figured it was we both worked for the weapons so if we found a great one why not share it.

Last night though, Big jumped into our game and was nice enough to "drop" some of the most amazing loot I have ever seen.  So I'm still about finder better things but I'm pretty much a wrecking machine now - time to take on Crawmerax solo :)

hey rob I seem to recall I won a few of those duels. and yeah if you had a mic you would have known we were stuck. lol
it took us about 15 minutes before we just backed out and invited eachother back in. I hate that your character can be jumping over the wall but not make it over the wall.

Keet, I'll jump into your game if you ever invite me. I think you're always too busy jumping into other peoples' game to do your own. But I'm up for it anytime you invite me.

How are you guys playing this game?

Are you going legit and completing all the quests and stories to level up how it's intended or are you pulling in high level folks to level you up faster than normal?


I've done the full playthrough, twice, with a soldier, so now I'm just all about having fun with other characters or with my 61 soldier.  I've got a buddy I pushed to level 26 in a couple hours just running the crimson fastness, enclave and promontory (3400 exp per kill for him).

I've gotta stop jumping into everyone else's games or find people at the same point (or behind me) on the DLC.  I don't get credit for half the stuff we do and they've already completed the missions I still have to do.

Just too much fun playing with you guys, though.

I really need to get back to this.  I have two packs of DLC still, and I haven't even begun to get into the game yet.

SO does anyone who has the Secret Armory know what happens when you "use" the elevator like thing with the 4 arrows on it.  I'm glitching into the armory on the "it's like Christmas" mission and the one thing you can not do is get to the second level as you can NOT pass through the elevator shaft - it will ruin that mission and not allow you back into the armory without some external help (Willowtree).  I want to know what happens when you use the elevator.

 ******  I figured it out - it's an elevator to the econd floor - use it :)  *******


I also wanted to let everyone know that when you get to the Armory - and you see the rooms that look like they are blocked by red sheilds - they are not - jump through the shield and open the chests!!!!

If anyone would like to come with me on a run through - let me know and we can work aout a time to run through the armory with no time limit.
