  • In this video, we take a look at how to level Gaige the Mechromancer during normal mode in Borderlands 2. We go over how to level Gaige, the skills to spec into, bosses to farm for xp and items, good gear to use while leveling, and general progression of the story. We show off the final normal mode build at level 30 at the end of the video.
    This is part one of a series designed to take Gaige to OP10, the maximum level after the release of the Fight For Sanctuary DLC.
    Gaige build at level 30: bl2skills.com/mechromancer.ht...

    15:00 big tip right here:
    Right AFTER you turn in the quest where you beat Wilhelm but BEFORE you put in the power core, you can go to Sanctuary and pick up some quests. One of them," The Good, the Bad, and the Mordecai", gives access to farming to a really good AR (Veruc) and one of the best snipers/guns (Lyuda) in the game. Furthermore, turning in the quest itself gives a relic that boosts Exp gain (Moxxis Endowment), which in turn helps with farming Mutated Varkids.

      You can easily farm Mobley and Gettle (Veruc and Lyuda) by entering the dust from the prison area, picking up a car and driving it up the wall beside the bandit car spawn place. If you exit the car while mid air you're likely gonna land on a rock path that takes you right to the back of the church where Mobley spawns. Also, they can be farmed multiple times over a single playthrough as the dust leveling scales multiple times over normal mode. As far as im aware they scale as the start of the 'Where Angels Fear to Thread' mission and at the start of 'Talon of God', so if you get a corrosive Lyuda before fighting the Bunker the fight should be a bit easier, as long as you can manage ammo or you're playing Salvador.
      Also, picking up the mission 'In Memorian' from Lilith after finishing 'Hunting the Firehawk' and completing it allows you to farm Boll for a Fastball grenade which can be a good alternative to the Contraband Skyrocket if you don't get it at the start of the game. The fastball is a hard to use grenade as you have to aim exactly at an enemy to deal damage, however it can one shot most enemies up to level 20+. For normal mode a shock or explosive variant would be optimal as there are not many enemies that resist shock damage and explosive works well against everything. When using the Fastball, think of it as if it were a tomahawk or throwing knife from Call of Duty, but not affected by gravity - if it hits an enemy, the enemy dies.

    24:00 farming tip
    on the left of the bounty board you can climb and have a red chest behind the house, going even more left leads you to a loader named bone head 2.0 that drops the boneshredder (similar to slagga)
    going right from there is a shack with a normal chest and some regular boxes, open them all cuz theres a chance for loot midgets, going forward past the house with the electric blockade on it there is a broken water tower, climb it and paralel to it is a fuse you can shoot,
    you can go back to the electric fence to take another red chest
    going forward to saturn you can jump on the box, then on the grey trash box and then jump on the pole near the house, ending on top of the house with a red chest.
    You can save quit and repeat, takes about 5 mins
    and you end up with 3 red chests, boneshredder (you can get any element), and a chance for loot midgets and tubby/chubby enemies, overall i think one of the best farms.

    The DLC in normal mode is level scaled in such a way that allows you to easily reach level 40 before reaching TVHM. It kinda breaks the leveling. Normal mode ends at level 30. TVHM starts at level 30-35. In normal, the Pirate and Torgue campaigns scale to level 15 or 30, and the Big Game Hunt and Dragon Keep campaigns can scale to level 30-35. The Fight for Sanctuary can scale to level 30-38. This is useful for late game normal mode if you just wanna speed through that second play through.

  • @JakeRonYT
    @JakeRonYT 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Tip I didn't find in the comments yet: while farming for the Slagga, look for a cardboard box on the platform on the Zaford side, roughly between the two dumpsters. If the box spawns there (randomized 1/5 locations), it will always contain a Gwen's Head, a pretty good blue pistol which can also spawn as corrosive. I suggest checking again every time you save&quit / continue for another attempt at the Slagga (or leveling to 21), even if you've already found one you're happy with, because the money you get for selling them can help offset buying ammo during farming. Speaking of which - the chest underneath the Zaford platform can also contain some valuable goodies (to sell)!

    Thanks for the guide! I would add that you should farm a Lobbed Bonus Package from Boom Bewm, which is far superior to the skyrocket, which you only need to save for specific uses. Also, I wouldn't give up farming the Unkempt Harold in favor of the Lascoux's that spawn in the puddle in Frostburn Canyon. In most, if not all cases, the Unkempt will do more damage. Lastly, it's probably worth it to farm Knuckledragger for a Hornet at the start of the game.

    I also want to mention something about class modes. If you go to Scarlett DLC, meet scarlett herself, comeback to Oasis, you can take side-mission "Grendel". The mob Grendel could be hard, but as long as you have enough stacks, should be ok. Upon completing this quest goes "read only" farm, because a quest reward for this mission are two to choose blue class modes. This farm could be more effective in TVHM and probably UVHM, if you still don't have legendary class mode. On TVHM class modes will give +5 and +4 points on skills

    @rojacol4306 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I do have a few of tips for the guide.
    This is down to personal preference, but I like to go into the "close enough" skill after getting anarchy. It mitigates the lost ammo when missing (either due to just missing shots or because of anarchy itself) and the damage of anarchy negates the damage loss after about 35 stacks. Also if you have a weapon that already richotets/"bounces" then the 50% debuff isn't applied and you just get a straight buff to that weapon as the bullets will now auto target enemies instead of having to line up shots.
    Since you are assuming all dlc, that means that the player will also have access to the creature slaughter dome in the wildlife preservation. Finishing all 5 quests in that area rewards miss moxxies creamer, which is an incredibly powerful rocket launcher that also heals for a small portion of thr damage done. It also has a bit of a quirk with the initial rocket exploding and splitting into two during its flight, if you aim it right you can hit an enemy with all three rockets at one time. At around this point you mention that we can get a new fight for your life launcher after a mission that comes up just after this, but I'm pretty sure the creamer would be far more powerful if used right.
    There is also the heart breaker, ruby, and the hail. They are all moxxi weapons which all heal for a percentage of damage. The heart breaker is an amazing shotgun (though it is fire only) and I would recommend read only farming for perfect parts. I would also recommend farming for a Slag ruby as well. The hail is a weapon that had its bullets split up mid air and bounce and is mostly good when you use the close enough skill as I described earlier.

    Been playing her for the first time now. I have found that Amp shields work pretty good on her once you have Blood Soaked shields to 5 since every kill it maxes out and you get bonus damage on the next shot, which sometimes allows single shot kills, repeating the process. But my second choice is high turtles. I try and keep both, but if I'm in the anarchy I would never use the novas since you will usually not have much health when your shields are gone.

    • @agentlomax

    A good option since the patch is to farm for a fastball, either explosive or fire for normal mode (always preferred as explosive) from the in memoriam mission which makes the assassin boll available to farm. It becomes available from lillith as soon as she's back in sanctuary. It takes out most enemies in one hit, two hits for mini bosses and tougher enemies like badasses. Its mainly useful for single enemies as it acts like it says, a fastball in baseball, so having a crowd control grenade like a fire burst or an electric burst grenade is always a good thing to keep in the back

    I really like your video, very informative. The only thing I would add is that the tidal wave is actually pretty great on gaige and is kind of a hidden gem weapon. It has some cool interactions with her ricochet stuff and works well with anarchy since it hits hard and you probably arent getting crits with it anyways. Also anarchy doesnt really mess with the spread pattern much. People think its kind of a meme weapon and for the most part it is but on gaige i think its actually pretty solid.

      Never tried the Tidal wave but I don't doubt it's usefulness on Gaige. Unfortunately it's a choice between that and a lady fist and the lady fist is arguably the strongest weapon in the game

    For a corrosive weapon you can farm the Hornet, a fairly good unique corrosive pistol, at any point from Knuckledragger in Windshear wastes. Just fast travel to Lyersburg, head to Windshear Waste, kill her, then save and reload. Rinse and repeat until you get a version you want. The gun should level to you, but the boss stays at level 1 so she's an easy kill. Same goes for Unkempt Harold and other Legendary weapons, they level to the player on drop so you can return to farm stronger versions as you level.

    There is an easy way to kill Saturn, if you stand on the right side of the gate right before you go in the giant area the bot can jump down to, you can shoot from cover and not one thing will hit you. It eats a lot of ammo, but that is no problem because there is a machine near that spot

  • @Zachattack1cub

    As someone that enjoys Mechromancer and claims it as my favorite class, I am so happy to have found your video series on leveling her. However, one quick thing I'd like to point out is that there is likely something more needed to be explained when farming the Hodunks for a Slagga. I dunno if I just lingered too long in the Dust after my second kill, or if I did something improper that I have no clue like claiming the chest under the Dust station, but they seem to not wanna spawn after I farmed them the first time. Specifically, the order of events are:
    I killed the Hodunks and turned in the quest, no Slagga drop first try. I watched more of the video and heard a caravan, so I went to kill the guard and loot them. I then realized there was a chest under the Dust station, so I looted that. I then travelled to Lynchwood and travelled back to the Dust as fast as I could. Only the main boss of the Hodunks spawned when I returned, so I killed him quickly with my shotgun and Deathtrap, still no drop. I go back to Lynchwood and then back to the Dust for a second farm/third kill, and none of the Hodunks spawn.
    To note, I like doing side quests before story quests, so unless specifically mentioned to save for later in your video, I've been doing all the side quests I can, while still doing the recommended quests first so I'm not too over-level. By the time I turned in the quest for the Clan War, I was close to reaching level 21. Also, I found that save/quitting while by the train station will make the entire Hodunk group respawn once I load back in. I am also on Console in case that changes anything.
    Just in case this needs to be cleared up for anyone else trying to play as Mechromancer or anyone needing to farm the Slagga!

      That was my goal with this. I wanted a method that every character can do to level up quickly because I'm not going to be able to get all six characters done before BL3, so this is the next best thing. Like you said, the only things that will change are skill points and gear. UVHM will probably be where we see the most divergence between characters.

    Gaige is my fave! I would sugest a shotgun with one 'extra' round in the magazine (which will be removed thanks to her skill). This means you not only build stacks very quickly, but that you CANNOT accidentally reload. This is more of an issue on consoles where you can't rebind controls.

    great video, i thought about playing gaige, and with your lvling guide, it should be no problem even if i take the lvl 30 version,but i have a few questions:1. could you maybe show some side areas and how to reach them when we have to lvl there etc., for example, it took me way too long to find the caustic caverns because i thought i had to jump in the crater, and, well, that sadly doesnt work, even from different heights or angles...? 2. do you recommend any bosses/missions who are worth farming in normal mode, as an example, the warrior for the conference call or bunker for the sham?When i start with the lvl 30 version, what gear should i keep, its mostly green rarity, and thanks to my other characters, i could get better things?

    • @agentlomax
      @agentlomax  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think when you start a level 30 character, they will always have the same gear. For example, once level 30 Gaige will always start with the same gear as another level 30 Gaige but it will be different from a level 30 Sal. She starts with a Coach gun which I recommend keeping as it's good for stack building. Also keep the contraband sky rocket and the fire lady fist. I would recommend doing the Uncle Teddy for a non-fire lady fist to use against warrior, and you can use the fire one on non-armored enemies. Any other starting gear you can keep or sell if you want. I'll try to go over my thoughts on this stuff in the tvhm video.
      I think the Caustic Caverns was the only place we visited in this video that didn't have a quest waypoint going through it and I tried to show it off. You actually can jump down there but you have to get past a bunch of bandits before you get to a point you can jump from. The varkid farming will be done quite often in normal mode and tvhm because the caustic caverns scales to the story level unlike most areas in the game. I think the farms in this video should be good enough for leveling/items. I feel like anything else is a bit overkill for trying to get through normal mode quickly, but you're more than welcome to farm whatever guns or items you like 😀

  • @andromydous
    @andromydous 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Can't wait to see the next 2 vids on this. For me, lvling was kind of a shock after the latest dlc. I could be wrong, but it feels like they increased both mobs and bosses level caps toward late game. I used to farm Bunker till level 30 for exp and for the bitch/sham. Then, I'd continue on to The Warrior and farm him till 40-43. Partly for the exp, but mostly for the conference call. Also, the loot drop rate seems way less post new dlc and I think that's because both Uranus and Casius have the potential to drop 4-5 legendaries in one fight. One problem I do have with Gaige is that most of my go to weapons for other characters are utter crap in her hands. For example, the Bitch in Maya's hands will tear up Bunker in no time. However, with Gaige I ended up using a Badaboom. Not a bad thing except that rockets are way more expensive and you get way less than other ammo. Which means having to buy ammo more often.

    • @agentlomax
      @agentlomax  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I don't think they've changed anything with drop rates in the base game, instead they gave us a DLC with some pretty generous bosses. Level caps are definitely higher going from level 72 to level 80 and from OP8 to OP10, so enemies will be at level 90-92. Gaige can be pretty unique with her weapon set because of anarchy and close enough. Things like the Fibber or the Hail become really strong on her. Even with 150 stacks of Anarchy you can still use most weapons. It may just take some time getting used to her because she plays so differently.

  • @darrengaroutte7744
    @darrengaroutte7744 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    In normal mode I usually I typically spend the majority of it putting points into the Best Friends Forever tree. I also only put 1 point into cooking up trouble since the skill mostly works as a way to heal you between fights. I've rarely been able to keep the skill active while fighting since you have to have a full magazine. Anarchy isn't really needed in normal mode as Death Trap really works wonders in this mode. I usually respect into late in normal more or before going to true vault hunter mode. Be aware if you've never played Gaige that Death Trap potency drastically reduces as you move up in modes. By UVHM think of him as a support option and a distraction.

    • @agentlomax
      @agentlomax  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The left tree is definitely viable for normal, but because anarchy is only one point I still think it's worth taking. The only problem is you won't be able to get discord. Also with cooking up trouble, if you're using a jakobs shotgun & have smaller lighter faster, you will heal whenever you're not shooting because your magazine will always be full

      And i do want to add that for bosses like the warrior and stuff, you don’t need the skill, the fibber is really good on it’s own. Just has a big learning curve in how it fires. Her skill makes it easier to use against other enemies.
