Congrats to Wamrstreams for getting this drop 16 years after BL1 launched! Check out his channel below and give him a congrats! www.twitch.tv/wamrstreams
just to say, you still get the average times wrong in these videos. for a 1/100 drop chance the average amount of runs to get it to drop isnt 100, its about 69. getting it at 100 is unlucky, getting it at 69 is *average* luck. so at 6:40 when you said its a 950 hour farm, thats 3 minutes * 19,000. what you should actually be doing is 3 minutes * 13169 (you do a log calculation with a base of (1-(1/19000)) and a final answer of 0.5 (for 50% chance) and you get 13169.449...) to get 658 hours on average. Still insane but a lot less. it's a nitpick im aware but a lot of your channel is based on farming and loot and it always bothers me that you dont do odds calculations correctly. Its really simply honestly, you can always just do 69% of the odds (69% of 19000 is 13110 which is really close - use 68.97 for better accuracy but you can see how 69 is very accurate). Currently you always assume that to get the result you want takes that number of attempts. Thats like saying the average number of dice rolls to get a 6 is 6 rolls, when that mathematically just isnt true, and I'd appreciate it if in future you could be a little more accurate with it - especially for a documentary/report type video such as this. It's clear you put a lot of respect into these videos, so a small error like this feels like it shouldnt slip through the gaps Im a long time viewer and I think i've commented something similar before, I love your content and watch basically every video, so please don't think I just want to hate
I'm pretty sure the purpose of the slow elevator to Crawmerax was to stall co-op teamates from rejoining the fight after they die and respawn, the did something similar with Terramorphous with it's obstacle course that you had to go through.
this looks way worse tbh, the shiny is about 1/8000 and you just talk to it to start the fight then reset, this is 1/19000 and you have to do a full 3 mins of fight, check all lot and cleanup then go up the damn elevator again
I've shiny hunted every single legendary, it's not this bad. I'd get multiple in a day sometimes. The odds are anywhere from 1/8192 to as little as 1/100...
@@verdibyrdyou gotta catch said shiny (legendary) as well. Which sometimes can be equally frustrating. Happened to me more than once that I killed it with a critical hit. And this is only applicable with legendarys. Hunting for shiny Pokémon that spawn randomly is a completely different story. Hunting for shiny Pokémon that are super rare and spawn randomly is absolutely brutal. Feebas comes to mind, it was difficult enough getting the normal version. I was so hyped farming and getting back in the day on my Ruby edition for the GBA.
My immediate instinct after picking up something that rare would be to save and quit. With a time sink that massive I'd be too paranoid to take even another frame of risk of the game somehow crashing
If the elevator is really that much of a hassle for you, stand in one of the corners and jump continuously. You glitch into the wall just enough to where you can keep jumping up and if you do this enough, you will actually rocket out of the elevator shaft before the elevator actually gets there.
It's amazing that this 15-year-old game is still delivering the goods after all those years. I got an insane purple "Glorious Havoc" from a Badass Skag back when I started playing the game in 2010, and since then I've tried to replicate it but never have. It's both amazing and ultra frustrating at the same time lol.
Man FOH. I'm an ironman and that would be a mind melting insanity grind. Are you kidding me? 1/19k???? Most end game farmable drops are like 1/1k. Even getting a solo tbow 35 mins a raid at 1000 raids is only ~600 hours
It's cause it doesn't really require insane skill/concentration/competition like for example a speedrun. But it still requires a lot of time and dedication. So it's less intense than a WR speedrun
Man, this is wild, I was farming for pearlescents way back when Secret Armoury came out, never thought I would see a video in my feed saying it took this long for the rarest to be found!
The feeling you get from completing an insane grind is both satisfaction beyond belief and then this weird emptiness where you go "what now then" since you made your entire gaming to be about this one spesific thing for so long it became a way of life
maaan the biggest takeaway i have from this vid is that borderlands the series as a whole is really beloved no matter which game ya play there is always love for each iteration that just baffles the mind considering how damn old some of these games are. congrats to Wamr i woulda be screaming if i got that shit to drop.
Yep, it’s one of the best things about these games. Each one has its own unique appeal. There’s always a reason to go back to older entries, even if you prefer the latest one.
1 in 19000 is wild, but what really kills the fun is when you do the maths and realize, that after 950h (or 19000 runs if you prefer) you only have about ~63% probability overall of getting at least one in the entire attempt. Getting at least one hit in 2690 runs only happens in ~13.2% attempts (which means in 15 people trying 2690 times only 2 are expected to get one).
I really love these longer videos about community accomplishments. it really makes it feel like were all part of one big community which a lot of games now struggle with.
Very well made and informative video, the way you explain all the different mechanics of the game to make sure your audience understands what is happening is extremely appreciated, keep it up!
I find it funny that in just under 3k runs, this man got a 1/19,000 drop, and K6 still hasn’t gotten a god roll Re-Volter in over triple the amount of runs.
This level of dedication is a rare skill. I was once farming a 0.01% drop in a game and the player next to me killed a mob and dropped the item. I Stopped griding althogether and I still remember after 20 years vividly the map, the mob, the specific area where it dropped and how I felt miserable.
I really hope they bring back hybrids in 4. Pearls too, but i doubt we'll get those back. My main issue with borderlands 3's loot was its ALL orange! No uniques or purples are worth using in 3, unlike 2, where your inventory is full of blue, orange, pueple, sometimes pink. Maybe a rainbow item. Its really weird that they added rainbow gear to 2 in a DLC linking it to 3, just to not have them in 3!
@@youtubeterminatedmyaccount8882 DUDE I had a dream where he was playing Minecraft and got so angry he cursed out the game and rage quit and I thought it really happened for like an hour after I woke up 😭😔😭
The "I can't even do words..." is so humble! The excitement and the acknowledgement of the drop itself is insane however the random call is way more insane!
To be fair, thats still like 15% chance in that time. Ok its not actually 15%, but to put it straightforward calculation of the avarage. So its just a good luck, not ungodly impossible.
I remember the true pearlescent weapons in Borderlands before they were officially added. Legendaries came in an orange colour pallet, with 3 shades. Darker was the better version (usually higher stats). But sometimes, they were tuned so high that the game couldn't categorise them, and they went full circle all the way back to white. Those were the items dubbed pearlescent before they added the general Knoxx DLC.
Awesome record dude! Welcome to the nemesis invader club! I wish I had mine recorded but sadly that's not the case! But I felt the same joy as this person did! It feels insanely good! Now reap the rewards of this sick ass gun! 💯💯💯
A couple months ago I killed crawmerax and he dropped a serpens and a tsunami and I even got video of it, but after looking up double pearl drops on youtube I didn't see a single video of a real double pearl drop, yet I saw a few videos of the nemesis invader dropping even though getting that gun is far more rare than a double pearl. I guess it just goes to show that rng plays a huge role in what you get
They are actually pretty common. I think jolt even had some on his nemesis invader search runs. They just aren't that many on youtube because they aren't anything to write home about.
@@nd_kui1772 The average in the original version is like 1/50 kills which means a double is 1/2500 which is pretty rare, I just don't think that many people have a way to record their drops
@@mdmajulen There are a lot of ways to record gameplay, but you have to install or enable something to do that and I think most people haven't done that
hell yeah, good on this dude man, quality video joltz. this reminds me of when i killed crawmerax one time and he both dropped the nemesis invader and the stalker at the same time. that is a moment in my farming journey that will Probably never happen ever again
Cool video, nostalgic. Borderlands 1 is still my favorite in the series, I played it a ton on Xbox 360 back in the day. I did also farm Crawmerax a lot, but I could only ever beat him by cheesing the fight by hiding by the rock. I remember getting plenty of pearlescents, but can’t remember exactly what I had. This video has me tempted to load up my old save and see if I got anything especially rare.
The explanation of this achievement was much appreciated. I love that it was a Diablo 2 player, as someone that has also spent years grinding rare items in that game. I found the pearl grind in the borderlands series way too much though, lol.
Man this brought back memories. I use to grind loot on this game like 15 years ago. I did the crimson armory route and I think I had 3 pearlescent guns but I didn't know there were even rarer variants of the pearlescent guns.
i can't even fathom this. i have close to maybe 600 or 700 hours of playtime across all 3 main titles. but over 900 hours just for one farm...how do you even... I get bored trying to just reach the level cap on my characters let alone pursuing drops to this level of dedication. Sure i farmed the unkempt harold, or the bee. who hasn't? but this was like a few hours tops.... and whatever variant I got was usually more than adequate.
A group of 4 of us found the nemesis invader hybrid on xbox 360 back in 2012/13 repeatedly using the armory clip glitch, took about 60 hours of constant farming between the 4 of us.
@@thewzterminator its up to you to believe it or not, however to say it didn t happen just cause he doesn t have footage from back then is just stupidity
@@thewzterminator I can't prove it anymore since I no longer have my Xbox or the game on disc but back then it wasn't even known that it was this rare or difficult to find.
So, the Nemesis Invader Hybrid pistol is essentially Borderland’s mythic goldfish item. I’m glad someone got it! By the way, I know that 950 hours isn’t even the longest grind I’ve seen in gaming.
this is the kind of shit that nobody in their right mind should ever do. these items exist, sure, but if you've already beaten the game entirely, you should probably spend your time elsewhere.
I remember getting the Liquid Orion and being so happy. Then my dad and I got our first pearlescent. I can’t imagine how this guy felt getting that drop. Congrats man! 🎉
heard you were going for a new style of videos to grow the channel, and goddamn, you did wonderful video, these story videos are very universal (hence why summoning salt is huge) and i wish you success
Having played Borderlands WAYY back when it first came out, its weird to hear people talking about pearlecent weapons. That was just a schoolyard term we had back then for legendary weapons that had white lettering instead of Orange. idk if its the case, but thats so cool in hindsight to learn that the developers used a player term for a new rarity. I'll never forget the time my cousin and I were farming boxes for Eridian weapons in split screen at a sleepover, and he got a common machine Pistol with CRAZY stats that was above his sledges shotgun. He got all excited and told me his friend at school told him about it, "Pearlescent" rarity, lol. This feels like if in a remake of pokemon one day, they make mew appear if you use strength on a truck.
Nothing like blatantly lying in your thumbnail. You don’t need video proof to know this isn’t a world first drop because 1/20000 is absolutely nothing in the scope of how many times this boss has been killed.
This requires someone who is truly into the grind. After a certain amount of time I get so annoyed with a farm that I begin to hate the game I am playing and stop playing it.
even though the chances are lower for finding it in chests, i would think that overall you'd get it much faster because you're rolling those chances many more times in a timespan than doing Craw. Craw only drops so much loot, but the armory has a lot more, especially if you bug the timer so you have unlimited time to check every chest.
I like how everytime he makes a video that's going to blow up he makes it easy to understand for people who don't play borderlands, like what level of foresight is this? How does he know?
bro i got one with my buds and they got mad at me because i would just onetap everything and they eventually made me put it away. damn that thing is op. congrats on the insane drop
I could never do this. I have farmed for weapons but the amount of dedication to one single game and the amount of time you need to have to do it is just astronomical.
nice this is like an average grind for a piece of BIS gear on old school runescape. but honestly this is so cool to watch and really happy he got his reaction and the journey.

A group of 4 of us found the nemesis invader hybrid on xbox 360 back in 2012/13 repeatedly using the armory clip glitch, took about 60 hours of constant farming between the 4 of us.
We once found 3 tsunamis and an omega in a single armory
No proof didn’t happen 🤷♂️
@@thewzterminator its up to you to believe it or not, however to say it didn t happen just cause he doesn t have footage from back then is just stupidity
@@thewzterminator I can't prove it anymore since I no longer have my Xbox or the game on disc but back then it wasn't even known that it was this rare or difficult to find.
7:06 time he start the fight.
So, the Nemesis Invader Hybrid pistol is essentially Borderland’s mythic goldfish item.
I’m glad someone got it!
By the way, I know that 950 hours isn’t even the longest grind I’ve seen in gaming.
Man that chatter that called it should go buy a lottery ticket. Several, actually.
No, he used up all his luck here, why would he try again?
saw gaming history in the title and saw my favourite game in the thumbnail. so glad it was borderlands news and proud of the player for this pull
Credit to him for his determination and success, but I'd either re-write the drop code or edit the save file instead.
Joltzzz I would like to say that once I finish ny college I'll be binge watching all of your videos. And that's a promise
this is the kind of shit that nobody in their right mind should ever do. these items exist, sure, but if you've already beaten the game entirely, you should probably spend your time elsewhere.
Right it's not a cs:go knife cmon, for 9 viewers bro
I’m glad he showed what it shoots like and went and shot some enemies with it so we can get a taste of the Nemvader.
0:48 was that a Jynxzi tribute?
Just how he talks.
What are you on about
I remember getting the Liquid Orion and being so happy. Then my dad and I got our first pearlescent. I can’t imagine how this guy felt getting that drop. Congrats man! 🎉
i found 10 of them nothing new here.
I mean if anybody's going to get them it'll be you, your dedication and non-stop playing of this game is insane. And also a testament
Shame you are the only one playing this game. Mod that gun into your save file brah.
heard you were going for a new style of videos to grow the channel, and goddamn, you did
wonderful video, these story videos are very universal (hence why summoning salt is huge) and i wish you success
holy moly 1 second ago
Having played Borderlands WAYY back when it first came out, its weird to hear people talking about pearlecent weapons. That was just a schoolyard term we had back then for legendary weapons that had white lettering instead of Orange. idk if its the case, but thats so cool in hindsight to learn that the developers used a player term for a new rarity. I'll never forget the time my cousin and I were farming boxes for Eridian weapons in split screen at a sleepover, and he got a common machine Pistol with CRAZY stats that was above his sledges shotgun. He got all excited and told me his friend at school told him about it, "Pearlescent" rarity, lol. This feels like if in a remake of pokemon one day, they make mew appear if you use strength on a truck.
7:33 to skip all the boring parts
The "ah bollocks good start" made my day xD
wasted 40 days of his life for nothing
What’s your total combined time spent on TH-cam
@@Turian_Hustle Not much I imagine
The amount of dedication you have to still play this game
Nothing like blatantly lying in your thumbnail. You don’t need video proof to know this isn’t a world first drop because 1/20000 is absolutely nothing in the scope of how many times this boss has been killed.
I don't even follow Borderlands but from an OSRS player, I appreciate insane grinds. This was awesome man
Huge congratulations! 👏 🎉 Keep up guys!
Good video man I like the specific information and calculations.
This requires someone who is truly into the grind. After a certain amount of time I get so annoyed with a farm that I begin to hate the game I am playing and stop playing it.
im not into insanity either
Watching this at 3 AM for no reason but nice man, I'm happy that he got such a rare drop!
It's nice being able to hear someone so ecstatic about their achievements. Congrats to him.
even though the chances are lower for finding it in chests, i would think that overall you'd get it much faster because you're rolling those chances many more times in a timespan than doing Craw. Craw only drops so much loot, but the armory has a lot more, especially if you bug the timer so you have unlimited time to check every chest.
Love these story videos. Keep em coming
I like how everytime he makes a video that's going to blow up he makes it easy to understand for people who don't play borderlands, like what level of foresight is this? How does he know?
Wow joltzdude is popular now thats crazy i havent watched in years but im glad to see you doing good
bro i got one with my buds and they got mad at me because i would just onetap everything and they eventually made me put it away. damn that thing is op. congrats on the insane drop
Imagine someone gets this on their first playthrough and has no idea they picked up the rarest item in the game.
I could never do this. I have farmed for weapons but the amount of dedication to one single game and the amount of time you need to have to do it is just astronomical.
Borderlands community is such a good one man, so much dedication and support we give to the game and players
nice this is like an average grind for a piece of BIS gear on old school runescape. but honestly this is so cool to watch and really happy he got his reaction and the journey.
