been watching a lot of gasmask's challenge runs recently. It almost feels weird watching a challenge isn't designed for maximum suffering. excellent run as always Joltz!
0:54 if LGM followed this principle, there would be ten fold decrease in his suffering. But people like to watch him suffer, so I guess he is eternally cursed to use bad weapons only.
6:55 joltz nerding out and figuring out a solution is why we love these videos Bro really used DOUBLE BLADED TUNGUSTKA'S+ grenade jumps and shi to figure out this puzzle lmao
Man this is honestly something I would love to see. A run with weapons people usually avoid or try not to use. So many builds and playthroughs are ‘get the infinity/harold/worldburn/conference call/etc’ but its never expressed why some weapons (including legendaries and uniques) are left from the meta, even if they are fun for some people.
unironically my favorite rocket launcher i know it doesnt do like norfleet damage but its still extremely fun to watch the rocket rise up and obliterate smaller enemies really easily, even if not really possible around OP10 since enemies have ungodly amounts of health (also the lwt-loader moment was really funny)
Fun video but it felt waaaay too rushed imo, each scene felt like I didn't have time to process anything or take in the jokes. Fav part was 1000% the turret scene lol. I got to feel the challenge of the run, your creative thinking, and had a great, simple, example of your knowledge of the game in just the small ways.
At first I thought I'd miss the daily videos, and I do a little bit, but the less often uploads are pretty fun too, and they enable videos like this which might not have worked very well as a series. Keep up the good work. :)
I'd love to see more of these from you! I like watching your videos, but I don't have it in me to watch an entire multi-part playthrough most of the time. These are great for me
Great idea for a run, man. Love seeing you do new creative things with underwhelming weapons. Also, GBX, look how much work it takes to make pearls worth it!
At first I thought this was going to be like a Gas Mask video by Joltzdude, but it's so different that honestly, I want to see how you would optimize some weapons he's done runs for, like the Elephant's Gun or Fastball. Needless to say I'm excited for this new series!
Lesson of the day, you can go away from running a play through BL2 for a bit, but you always find your way back to it. Like a friend you haven't seen in years, but pick up right where you left off.
Those door turrets are the true test for any build in BL2. Pretty funny how out of all the enemies in the game, those little guys require the ingenuity.
EDIT: For what to beat the game with next, I'd actually put in a vote for the Storm or the Thunderball Fists (with allowances made for things that are completely immune to shock, of course.) They're my favourite weapons in the series, it would be cool to see them showcased. I have to admit, sometimes I am not fond of a lot of the unintended, glitchy mechanics of BL2, but on the other hand it is really nice that you can make fairly terrible weapons still work with them. As bad as the Tunguska is, it's probably one of the more fun weapons to use in my opinion. Something about the lobbed blast is just super satisfying to make happen. This playthrough did look like a Tun-(guska) of fun.
I immediately knew before even clicking the video that those mini turrets were going to be an issue It’s gotta be something with the geometry from the wall or something like that
that was an interesting run for sure, I forget some of these Pearls exist with how little use I've done on them. also I never knew the LWT loaders could steal your stuff like the Rats in the Fridge. the more you know
I think the sawbar would be an interesting choice. I feel as if people don't understand how good that weapon can be provided it's on the right character like krieg and axton due to its grenade splash in the extra projectiles it produces. And of course the challenge part when fire resistant enemies come into play.
The arrow keys are likely a holdover from doom era fps games. Default controls, when mice weren't really a thing was to turn left and right instead of strafing.
I think you can try to make these videos longer, after all your most viewd videos are over 20minutes or even over 1 or 2 hours. It feels a bit sad that the whole story is in 12 minutes and the video is just, boss, boss, boss, funny, boss, boss, drop, boss
12:03 I actually use the arrow keys to move one handed when I'm doing the sandhawk farm so I can be lazy about it since you only have to like, walk 10 meters
tunguska is genuinely one of my favourite guns in this game cause its gimmick is genuinely very funny, plus its nowhere near as bad as its made out to be (still not great like)
@@grave666-ed But if the build is so good that you could use any piece of garbage, are you really proving anything other than how broken the build is? Like, Cloudkill is strong enough you could probably beat the game with a level 1 white pistol. That doesn't mean the pistol is viable, it means Cloudkill is broken.
@@blahthebiste7924I don’t think that’s a spot on comparison though because this build has the Tungsuka doing solid damage whereas that white pistol itself would be doing nothing, it’d just be damage from a perk. I get what you mean though, it’s just that this shows that the Tungsuka is useable without cloud kill even if it requires a gross build. The same can’t be said for the Bunny though it just sucks.
You beat Borderlands 2 WITH the Tunguska, but can you beat it AS a Tunguska? Salvador with twin purple non-spinigun Vladof ARs, and twin purple Vladof launchers in reserve. _BECOME THE SPAAG._

I thought this was a Lilgasmask video until I saw that he was actually being reasonable and using other weapons for support.
Yea... My angle on these runs are to show build synergy.
And to have fun aswell. Not just...pain hahahaha.
I thought the same @freddie7191
@@sebastiancordero27 lilgas is a masochist
@@handsomejack8751 he loves the pain... And we love watching lilgas suffer too. That's some real build synergy right there 😂😂
So happy you decided to do a social distancing challenge run
Wait... Social interactions make you explode?
@@Joltzdude139 why else do you think it makes people anxious?
I f@cking died. Omg. 🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥
Aka. Covid run
been watching a lot of gasmask's challenge runs recently. It almost feels weird watching a challenge isn't designed for maximum suffering. excellent run as always Joltz!
Anarchy makes the Tunguska even more of a threat to yourself than usual lmao
At first I was surprised. "Joltz is doing single weapon run!?" but then I noticed support weapons and it made sense
I want to show people that weapons can work at end game if you run a good build.
Almost thought it was a Lilgasmask run lol
A Tunguska does less damage than a Nukem with equivalent parts, and the more I dwell on that, the closer I get to becoming a Psycho.
But gasmask already did the nukem
It's so dumb that it has less damage and is a higher rarity.
0:54 if LGM followed this principle, there would be ten fold decrease in his suffering. But people like to watch him suffer, so I guess he is eternally cursed to use bad weapons only.
The Tunguska is one of those weapons that would be genuinely cool to use if gearbox had actually given it some decent scaling.
It has everything going for it except true damage for being a pearl.
This is what playing Moze feels like most of the time; just blowing yourself up when you least expect it.

Neither did I 😂😂
"How many Gubs can Loot Loader grab?" "How many Gubs it Takes to crash the game?"
Yeah, me neither, so for Joltzdude's Law I had to drop a like on the video 😔
This is a gasmask run without the overt masochism lmao
Joltz suffering with baby turret. Lilgasmask be like: first time?
Man those turrets are the hidden raidboss... So op.

Wow it's like a gas mask video but with 200% less masochism
With more nerdness

Surprised not even a single "stinky on em" reference
"Build around it"
Use weapon effect transfers*
I can't wait to see lilgasmask run this challenge the masochistic way
Glad to see you back on borderlands 2! Still the best game in the series for me. That rocket launcher jacking was hilarious 😂
in the end of the day, the real challenge is putting the stinky on em
Absolutely cannot wait to see this but with the wanderlust, it's my favorite pearl
Well that's the next gasmask vid I'm pretty sure
@elishuster5943 no way
@@qwertygaming3981either that or the one after the next one he was talking about it on stream
It's doable with Krieg with some of the usual pitfalls (baby turrets etc)
Awesome video The editing was so good, had me cracking up the whole way through Gaige next?? Oooooo I can't wait for that one!
I feel like no one runs Gaige for challenge runs. It has to be done
Honestly a max anarchy gaige with the tunguska would have been hilarious
I like the reference to the Tunguska event with this weapon, where a comet likely exploded in the air above the ground.
Losing the Run weapon to a LWT Loader is CRAZZZY dude
Truly unfortunate. The run doesn't count now. Confirmed that BL2 cannot be beaten with the Tunguska 100%
@Joltzdude139 "Can I Beat BL2 after dumping my entire inventory in front of any LWT loader I see" haha
Huh, I didn't even know they could do that. Learn something new every day.
unironically my favorite rocket launcher

Tunguska is the epitome of “Danger Close, but actually danger is everywhere” due to the blast radius being consistently inconsistent.
Who said Tunguska is a bad weapon?
GasMask is gonna turn it into real suffering
At first I thought I'd miss the daily videos, and I do a little bit, but the less often uploads are pretty fun too, and they enable videos like this which might not have worked very well as a series. Keep up the good work. :)
It would've been so in character for you to lose this run to a LWT Loader lmao
I mean I could always gib in new Tunguskas, but this was way funnier
Borderlands 2 is indeed a gem of an game that will never be forgotten
I'd love to see more of these from you! I like watching your videos, but I don't have it in me to watch an entire multi-part playthrough most of the time. These are great for me
Joltz even got stinkied😭
Great idea for a run, man. Love seeing you do new creative things with underwhelming weapons.
Also, GBX, look how much work it takes to make pearls worth it!
It definitely takes build synergy
Loved this video! Very different pace from one of your usual playthroughs but was just as fun to watch!

The transition at 2:22 was so clean
Those door turrets are the true test for any build in BL2. Pretty funny how out of all the enemies in the game, those little guys require the ingenuity.
In 5000+ hours of BL2 I had no idea lwt loaders could take your guns lol
This just shows how underpowered the base damage is for the tunguska
O my god is that LilGasmask reference?
I think lilgasmask just got a new challenge.
"I can't even see you."
True and real for any Sal run. Can't see the enemy, only the damage tics.
Idk why, but the delivery of "Mad Mike is no joke" whilst seeing Sal hoof it backwards was really funny to me😂
“We have talked about this Steve!”-Cl4p-Trap
11:33 MUSTAAARRD
"I could make it a little bit crazier..." Says Joltz as he full auto fires the tunguska with multiple projectiles
2:35
First thing I thought was that Iron Man scene:
- It was a good talk.
- No, it wasn't.
Keep it up my favorite TH-camr

Bro is becoming non-masochistic gasmask
saw the new joltz up load, thought to myself "this will be painful" and it did not disappoint
you have almost pulled out all of the content borderlands has to offer
I saw the title and thought i was going to be watching a lilgasmask video. Always appreciate the challenge run vids
I thought you were playing your favorite game, borderlands 3
10:07 my left ear loved that
Bros gonna turn into gasmask soon if he keeps this up
Jolts taking the time to kill the turrets rather than just running past shows that he has the dedication dude
Those 2 turrets are required to push the mission forward.
@ ah learn something new about this game every day. Seems like the devs did a good job preventing sequence breaks
using underwelming weapons like this is a great concept and i cant wait to see what you do next
I want to show people that there are more than "10 usable weapons" at end game.
Love this type of video joltz! Good shit
I immediately knew before even clicking the video that those mini turrets were going to be an issue
It’s gotta be something with the geometry from the wall or something like that
that was an interesting run for sure, I forget some of these Pearls exist with how little use I've done on them. also I never knew the LWT loaders could steal your stuff like the Rats in the Fridge. the more you know
Was just binging borderlands content, released this at the perfect time
Watching forward for your new playthroughs with farms or challenges!
Ohh hell yea, I wanted to see gas mask do this for ages now so I’m happy af
One question WHY suffer so badly and also 2nd question sloth only when?
There was no suffering if you build around the weapon to make it work
A Death Counter for this run would've been interesting.
I think the sawbar would be an interesting choice. I feel as if people don't understand how good that weapon can be provided it's on the right character like krieg and axton due to its grenade splash in the extra projectiles it produces. And of course the challenge part when fire resistant enemies come into play.
"any gun is good if you build around it" is how u always feel with the infinity
The arrow keys turning the camera is a remnant of doom
The arrow keys are likely a holdover from doom era fps games. Default controls, when mice weren't really a thing was to turn left and right instead of strafing.
This feels like Border Souls 2, since Joltz see’s the death screen more than the enemies are. Lol
I think you can try to make these videos longer, after all your most viewd videos are over 20minutes or even over 1 or 2 hours. It feels a bit sad that the whole story is in 12 minutes and the video is just, boss, boss, boss, funny, boss, boss, drop, boss
I really want to see more underappreciated guns like this!!! The Bearcat has my vote!!!
"Can you beat Borderlands 2 with ONLY the Tunguska?" *immediately goes into other guns he'll be using*
HMMMMM...
Everyone of those conveyer belts fling me lol
I've started saying "Oh good" in the same tone as Roland, I don't think anyone will ever get the joke. Oh good.
I have around ~3k hours in BL2 at this point and never knew you could use your arrow keys for literally anything
Put the stink dude on 'em

I hope Joltz does this with every red text item or would be cool even if you can't truly finish the run. Just trying would be fun to watch
It stands to reason that the game wants you to use the volcano next
Yay a new upload! Sorry I have not been commenting or anything, I am focusing on school to become a historian!
All good. I hope school is going well for you.
Awesome vid as always ❤️
i really love the challenge runs man,I wish one day you would do challenge run as krieg
Very thankful for all my favorite TH-camrs this Thanksgiving 🙏
