Been saying this since day one. Nobody cares about the cosmetics in the first place, but they DEFINITELY shouldn't continue dropping after they've been acquired
Pretty much like it was in every other Borderlands game. When was the last time you used a Stalker, Devastator or a Logans Gun (except for ammo regen) in BL2?
@@BoothTX Power Creep isn't the issue. There's a bunch of Base game, DLC and Takedown weapons that shred. It's not like Arms Race gear is best in every category... but they are very good.
This is my own personal opinion: Honestly, I feel like it's because they took too much time buffing specific legendaries instead of buffing entire weapon categories to make them viable for M10 (at purple rarity and above). Like what are legendaries supposed to be? Red text weapons that are supposed to be a moderate amount better than their purple counterparts, in unique and interesting ways. They succeeded at that in most cases, but they overdid it so that legendaries are better by such a wide margin that purples are unusable at end-game. Think about it, when was the last time you saw an endgame build that had purple rarity weapons (with some limited exceptions, some of which are in the form of homing mirv tediores and high pellet Jakobs shotties for Fl4k)? In all the previous games, purples were meant to be outshone by their legendary counterparts, sure, but they were still viable, and in some cases *really good* at endgame. The Lyuda in BL2 was obviously the king of Vladof snipers, but purple Droogs were still absolutely amazing at endgame. But look at endgame now, when was the last time anyone was able to use a purple Asp or Diamondback at M10 all that reliably (and those don't even have a decent legendary alternative, unlike Jakobs Muckamucks and Epic rarity Vladof snipers). Imo at least 90% of purple weapons should at least be viable in the majority of cases, at endgame, and in fact really good if they have good parts, and not just because a ridiculously powerful mechanic like Ties That Bind was exploited. And legendaries should absolutely still be even better, but by just an extra step, not to the extent that you could very well argue it is in 3 at M10/M11
Hell, for me, it's the god damned Back Ham. Seriously, I can get a Back Ham to appear without ever trying for it. Why farm Troy for it when it drops almost anywhere as an almost assured drop?
and now its stronger than a hellwalker. how the turns have tabled. ofc hellwalker is still better because its still more reliable but tks wave is now high tier shotgun
I literally used the boring gun for the first time in Arms Race and it was.........okay. Just okay. In a mode where you kinda gotta take any gun you can get
Huh, I didn't expect the 9-Volt and AAA to show up. I've always seen them (especially the AAA) as good shield shredders or to deal with guardians (I've had some good trial runs using the 9-Volt).
The Quadomizer was my first ever legendary from my first Rampager kill Also the Malak's bane's other special ability is that it drops as every other legendary you get on your merry travels
Out of all the Pistols I think the Love Drill needs a buff the most. It only drops from the final boss of DLC and its basically just a worse Unforgiven.
So much hate for Baby Maker!! I had a level 32 Baby maker that spawned the 4 pistols, but they flew and honed in on targets. It seriously carried me from 32 to end game.. then I found a level 42 Baby Maker that only spawned 4 crappy guns.... so I get it.
Honorable mentions on the shields the black hole is bad like really bad but I'd like to say with action skill start it dose damage/stagger the guardian takedown guardians
@@AshenHollow7 because it drops from one of the dragons in the mother of grogans now. I was farming for easy xp last night and got 4. It was removed from rampager entirely.
The Malaks Bane was my first legendary in Borderlands 3 and I remember thinking immediately after testing “Is this what legendarios in BL3 are like?” I’m glad I’ve gotten many more since then cause every single other legendary is loads better
It's always done a shit ton of damage when I've used it, especially the shotgun part. I love that thing, I don't know what the hell you guys are talking about💁🏻♀️
7:00 yeah and even as a perlescent it sucked a$$. Why did it had to be carried over? Oh great, the Tide wave as well? They must be trolling at this point
Me and my friend usually call the Woodblocker, "The Cockblock" because literally most of the other weapons could've dropped in it's place. "Oh, no I wasn't farming Graveward for potential a 300/90 Lob in Radiation... I clearly wanted this wooden crapstick!"
Got the Malak's Bane once when I was still levelling my first character to 50 (on Mayhem 1), picked it up and for about 20 seconds the shotgun mode felt glorious. Then it ran out of ammo.
I actually love the Bear Trooper CM for Moze. I’ve tried every major build for Moze and my favorite is still just hopping into IB and shredding everything I come across. Though to be fair the BTCM I got was a much better roll than the one K6 is showing off, it’s +3 stainless bear / +2 explosive punctuation with weapon/manufacturer damage buffs
As someone who uses the Bear Trooper on Moze, I'd be interested in knowing what your better alternatives are to it, as I've found that it's been able to make Iron Bear work pretty well for me on Mayhem 11 bossing with my current build.
I’ve been saying since the game came out that the Pheonix tears needs to be changed. A free second wind with a long cool down makes a great option to me.
i reeeeeally want them to buff the hellfire. for only dropping in tvhm, it really should be better. i got an x2, next 2 mags incendiary one, so on the wall it goes until a (hopefully) buff
it has so much potential for moze being one of the few smg's that deal splash dmg. I'd love a buff in dmg, mag size and huge buff in fire rate, like how the hellfire used to be in Borderlands 1
Same with the Messy Breakup from GenIVIV, why move it from the most logical enemy to some rando that doesn't even have a "break up" of any sort. Hell, you could argue for it dropping from Troy even.
The Hand of Glory wasn’t all that back for a first time play though (a couple weeks ago for me), but then I found a Gatlin’n Clipper at the same level that did 3x the damage :/
Might be late, but Slaughter Shaft in M10 with Butt Stallion Milk drops stupid legendaries. You can usually brute force a few Deathlesses that way (looking for Atom Balm variant). Alternatively, go Moze/Amara co-op and combine Grasp and Railgun to kill it really quickly.
Bear Trooper isn't bad, it helps Iron Bear stay out longer. Without BT, Iron Bear usually lasts about 15-20 seconds. With Bear Trooper, I can probably run through the first half of Athena and still have some duration left
I agree with every gun on this list besides the ripper, with it's high fire rate it is good for early/ mid game but of course late game it drops off hard as if it hit the grand canyon
If they didn't add mayhem leveled items and kept mayhem mode truly 100% optional with the only incentive being a challenge. This game wouldn't have soo many useless items. any challenge based end game content especially for a borderlands game, should have no incentive other than making the game harder. Imagine if you could play on whatever mayhem you wanted to. Mayhem mode 2.0 ruined this game in my mind although I still play it strictly on mayhem 10/11. Also random note with mayhem mode. Annoints should be guaranteed on legendary items no matter what mayhem level since they made weapon parts worthless to learn, they are a decent substitute
The mayhem exclusive weapons should have been the point of mayhem; not this weird op level nonsense that's there right out the gate. Also wtf is even the point of TVHM anymore?
That Moze class mod is supposed to maximize a single use of Iron Bear. It is most definitely better to have more uses, but sometimes in arena type settings especially against bosses it helps to have that duration and drain reduction. The transfusion is awesome when it has shield drain as well on a shield vamp Moze. I can get chunks upon chunks of shield back
I just got into bl3 and one of my favorite legendaries to level with has been the shotgun that creates a chain lightning between enemies. Can’t remember the name but it’s been a really good weapon for early leveling
I am so happy your doing some top 10s again! Maybe Top 10 bosses in the franchise or just BL3 then a top t0 worst aswell? I would love to hear your opinions on a variety of the fights in BL3.
Malak's Bane seems to be the bane of my existance whenever I'm playing BL3. This gun despite being a rare drop in a loot of hard to kill named enemy, it seems to be pooping out every time I try to farm anything. Trying to get Monarch from Kill-a-Vold - Malak's Bane. Trying to get Sleeping Gigant from One Punch - Malak's Bane. Trying to get Spy from Arms Race - Malak's Bane. Checking a vending machine - MALAK'S BANE!!! *AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!*
I swear that is the purpose of the damn gun, is to be irritating AF. So much worse than the Bane from BL2 as that was at least a funny meme gun from an optional quest.
This video seems like a, " hey Gearbox, these are the stuff you need to buff ",video. Although I don't quite agree with the scream of terror shield. It's actually quite fun to use with the trainer mod and Flak's purple tree. If the shield is anointed, it can be a bit op, especially with shield effect on action skill activation. Plus the enemies confused no longer have green health bars.
I did not expect to see the Magnificent as a mention. I loaded back into the game sfter months a few days ago and was tearing stuff up with it. Playing as Moze probably helped anlot.
I actually never heard of most of these but the Malak's Bane sniper I have actually seen drop quite a lot actually. I farm Graveward mostly and I think between the Lob and Bane, I think I see the Bane drop more from the Graveward boss. Besides not knowing half or more of these legendaries I did not even know that "Phoenix" named Rakk existed at all in the game till now.
I love the AAA. It's great in Normal mode on Blast Master Moze. But that's it. You're 100% correct about The Garcia. The drop rate was bad enough. One of my favorite guns, too. What's that? No, it's okay Westergun. You're still safe.
I wish that the companion pistol was better, especially on higher difficulties or had a better effect than just being a fire only Jakobs elemental gun.
I managed to use a level 42 Garcia on mayhem 8, at level 54, and it was still pretty good. Was using Flak, with the blue and green trees mostly maxed out
I've tried the cheat code (ie - Iron Bear centric Moze) with the Raging Bear and other class mods and I still find the Bear Trooper just EASIER. I can sit in IB and mow down enemies for up to five minutes it seems. All I have to watch out for is barrels and hitting enemies with the corrosive sabot rounds when they are too close to me. I find splash Moze builds and endless mags builds much harder to play.
While there are certainly some items I don't like, what actually bugs me more than getting a bad legendary, is getting a legendary with an anointment that's inapplicable; For example, getting anything to do with elemental effect/chance on a non-elemental item, or sliding on a sniper rifle etc. etc. Like why the hell haven't they tweaked the parameters for these yet (or better still, removed all those junk anointments that no one uses anyway).
Super helpful video! Thank you so much! I have a few of those weapons in my bank in the hopes GB will buff them someday. Better to toss them and free up bank space?
Why did the Baby Maker make the list? Just curious. Before they nerfed ammo reclamation with the cutpurse, I used to throw homing versions constantly and they rocked.
so... i'm new to the game and got a ice element maleks bane from the shop at about level 18, and i found it pretty decent, it has long range, high ammo capacity, and freezes things like crazy, the only complaint i have is how quickly i run out of ammo and i blame that on me just spamming its shotgun mode like crazy, did it get a buff or is it just because im still in the early game
I nodded in approval at almost the entire video. I was going to argue the SF Force for worst SMG but then it was the 1st dishonorable mention so I was satisfied. Then you slandered the Frequency and I was tempted to cook up some delicious copypasta.
5 minutes after watching this video , i went in game and a quadramizer dropped for me. . .it was on the way to rescue hammerlock during the story mission on eden. right before meeting Crunk Bunny : All Grown Up for the first time.
Agree with most of these especially the Bearcat and the Malak's Bane. I see those so often its insane. I only recently ever even picked one up and its because I was in Arm's Race. I still did not end up using it even there.

Yes.
And if any items were to somehow get buffed during that playthrough (e.g. the D.N.A) he has to let go of that item
It’s wild watching the DNA from before VS now. The DNA now is easily one of my favorite guns in the game

I don't know who Molock is but he's absolutely safe from his "bane". 🤣
Double legendary cosmetic drops and no other legendary are what's the worse.
True that.
These have no reason to continue to drop after you've unlocked them, all they do is cramp up the lootpool for no reason.
My first time going into Mayhem 10 I got 2 of the same cosmetic and nothing else after killing Graveward. I didn’t know that could happen
Malak's Bane dropping every single goddamn time from Graveward is where the worst is at.
Been saying this since day one. Nobody cares about the cosmetics in the first place, but they DEFINITELY shouldn't continue dropping after they've been acquired

I can't tell if it is my own confirmation bias or just the drop weights but the Malak's Bane feels like the most common world drop.

Hell, for me, it's the god damned Back Ham. Seriously, I can get a Back Ham to appear without ever trying for it. Why farm Troy for it when it drops almost anywhere as an almost assured drop?

LMAOOOO... IKR?
Arms race is the official judge. I seems to do well with Tediores, Maliwan Blasters and Dahl rifles in AR
TK's Wave was my first ever legendary drop. Got it from Holy DumpTruck.
Needless to say I was disappointed
I had tk wave in Arms Race. It was pretty great. Arms Race makes a lot of subpar legendaries pretty good.
and now its stronger than a hellwalker. how the turns have tabled. ofc hellwalker is still better because its still more reliable but tks wave is now high tier shotgun

@@AceAwes0me I found a 300/90 double variant in Arms Race. It was pretty great here. Apart from the time spent in FFYL...

The D.N.A. being here aged well lol..
Did NOT age well😂😂
yeah the D.N.A aged like fine wine
aged like milk
bruh thing is really good now
Guess I need to update this
I swear to god, Malik’s Bane is my Gub. I’ve lost count how many times I’ve had that damn thing drop.
At least the gub is usable depending on the build and character you're playing as, the malak's bane is just unusably bad.

For me it’s the wood blocker
@@modernyin6275 that's a close second to

I was actually excited when I got the baby maker for the first time then after I reloaded like 5 times and said "what happened to all my amno?"
The alchemist was the first legendary I got in the game, and it’s been consistently horrible every time I’ve seen it since
Yeah! the alchemist was good back when m3 and 4 were the hardest difficulties now its so bad
If you use a transformer and a good build on FL4K, you can basically become immortal
When you say a legendary isn't even good in Arms Race, that pretty much sums it up.
that weapon needs to either be buffed or demoted to gray.

Or the asmd
I've had about 40-50 so far. So yes. Almost always get one dropped

@@greenflame8398 yooo thats exactly who was using it with!
I am so happy your doing some top 10s again! Maybe Top 10 bosses in the franchise or just BL3 then a top t0 worst aswell? I would love to hear your opinions on a variety of the fights in BL3.
Malak's Bane seems to be the bane of my existance whenever I'm playing BL3. This gun despite being a rare drop in a loot of hard to kill named enemy, it seems to be pooping out every time I try to farm anything. Trying to get Monarch from Kill-a-Vold - Malak's Bane. Trying to get Sleeping Gigant from One Punch - Malak's Bane. Trying to get Spy from Arms Race - Malak's Bane. Checking a vending machine - MALAK'S BANE!!!
*AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!*
I swear that is the purpose of the damn gun, is to be irritating AF. So much worse than the Bane from BL2 as that was at least a funny meme gun from an optional quest.
Malaks name special ability - drops from everything.
This video seems like a, " hey Gearbox, these are the stuff you need to buff ",video. Although I don't quite agree with the scream of terror shield. It's actually quite fun to use with the trainer mod and Flak's purple tree. If the shield is anointed, it can be a bit op, especially with shield effect on action skill activation. Plus the enemies confused no longer have green health bars.
I did not expect to see the Magnificent as a mention. I loaded back into the game sfter months a few days ago and was tearing stuff up with it. Playing as Moze probably helped anlot.
Bearcat would be great with a 50% damage buff a projectile speed buff and a small spread
I actually never heard of most of these but the Malak's Bane sniper I have actually seen drop quite a lot actually. I farm Graveward mostly and I think between the Lob and Bane, I think I see the Bane drop more from the Graveward boss. Besides not knowing half or more of these legendaries I did not even know that "Phoenix" named Rakk existed at all in the game till now.
I love the AAA. It's great in Normal mode on Blast Master Moze. But that's it. You're 100% correct about The Garcia. The drop rate was bad enough. One of my favorite guns, too.
What's that? No, it's okay Westergun. You're still safe.
I really hope gearbox watch k6’s vids! Would love to see all of these get some TLC!
It’s the maloks bane that needs the buff, thing drops from every enemy
now to complete this you should totally make the top 10 most average legendary items in borderlands 3
The devastator, echo, occultist, vosks, all mayhem 4 & 6 exclusives
I wish that the companion pistol was better, especially on higher difficulties or had a better effect than just being a fire only Jakobs elemental gun.
I managed to use a level 42 Garcia on mayhem 8, at level 54, and it was still pretty good. Was using Flak, with the blue and green trees mostly maxed out
This video is pretty outdated now, sorry
I've tried the cheat code (ie - Iron Bear centric Moze) with the Raging Bear and other class mods and I still find the Bear Trooper just EASIER. I can sit in IB and mow down enemies for up to five minutes it seems. All I have to watch out for is barrels and hitting enemies with the corrosive sabot rounds when they are too close to me. I find splash Moze builds and endless mags builds much harder to play.
You should do another one of these now that some weapons got buffed
Agreed, it'd be interesting to see what weapons are still crap lol
While there are certainly some items I don't like, what actually bugs me more than getting a bad legendary, is getting a legendary with an anointment that's inapplicable;
For example, getting anything to do with elemental effect/chance on a non-elemental item, or sliding on a sniper rifle etc. etc. Like why the hell haven't they tweaked the parameters for these yet (or better still, removed all those junk anointments that no one uses anyway).
I loved the garcia when you were able to just empty the whole mag in like 2 seconds.
VinylicPuma: What a boat load of EEAAZZ!
Exactly!
Based solely on how the magnificent carried my ass from level 12-20, I'm excited to get one of the pistols you consider good! O.O
The magnificent if its the one I'm thinking about is amazing
Super helpful video! Thank you so much! I have a few of those weapons in my bank in the hopes GB will buff them someday. Better to toss them and free up bank space?
Same buddy, same.
I'm holding onto hope for some love for the Unending Magnificent. On paper it's great. On paper. Even Moze can't put it to work.
Why did the Baby Maker make the list? Just curious. Before they nerfed ammo reclamation with the cutpurse, I used to throw homing versions constantly and they rocked.
so... i'm new to the game and got a ice element maleks bane from the shop at about level 18, and i found it pretty decent, it has long range, high ammo capacity, and freezes things like crazy, the only complaint i have is how quickly i run out of ammo and i blame that on me just spamming its shotgun mode like crazy, did it get a buff or is it just because im still in the early game
Not sure if you’ll see this, but the intro of the sniper doing barely any damage made me laugh like a madman
Love you k6
I nodded in approval at almost the entire video. I was going to argue the SF Force for worst SMG but then it was the 1st dishonorable mention so I was satisfied. Then you slandered the Frequency and I was tempted to cook up some delicious copypasta.
Dude for how many guns there are this must be one hell of a subject to tackle. Thanks bro!
5 minutes after watching this video , i went in game and a quadramizer dropped for me. . .it was on the way to rescue hammerlock during the story mission on eden. right before meeting Crunk Bunny : All Grown Up for the first time.
Why don’t they make the EMP instantly remove mob enemy shields and then do a massive amount of damage to boss shields
One year later I’m on mayhem 11 using what used to be the worst SMG on his list (D.N.A.) and using it as my main weapon lmaoo
I've actually used the DNA surprisingly well, I run it on Mose with the "URad" anoint and it does a lot of damage.
to be fair... Moze with a uRad WHITE Maliwan SMG would likely shred too.
@@Ki11ersix Touche my friend, touche. I'm not gonna disagree that I'd like to see it buffed though.
Me who used the Malak’s Bane as my favorite sniper in my first playthrough
Agree with most of these especially the Bearcat and the Malak's Bane. I see those so often its insane. I only recently ever even picked one up and its because I was in Arm's Race. I still did not end up using it even there.
The D.N.A Smg is better now..
82000 damage.
