      this video has so much misinformation and terrible advice it's not even funny. even the technically correct bit about Light the Fuse is still trash advice because the ending explosion deals significantly less damage if you spend the entirety of FFYL spamming the individual sticks of dynamite. It's almost always better to immediately go for the kill unless an enemy is extremely low HP

  • @riemaennchen
    @riemaennchen ปีที่แล้ว +51

    One weird interaction with Kriegs melee damage comes from Crystalisks. Their crystals are very weak to melee damage. However with Krieg you only get the bonus melee damage against them if you use a weapon with a blade. I think Zer0 actually has the same problem.

    • @kolja783
      @kolja783 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I think this is similar to roid shields, if you use a roid shield you should use a bladed weapon as the blade is multiplicative with the roid bonus but the base melee is additive I believe

  • @0xGRIDRUNR
    @0xGRIDRUNR ปีที่แล้ว +7

    another important trick, corrosive is the longest lasting dot out of the three from what I remember, so using corrosive to trigger dot triggered effects on krieg is the best way to go about it. Its why joltz used a pandemic for the elemental elation trick. Using an infection works too

  • @shiny1556

    I like to think Krieg is the best designed character in BL2. Maybe not entirely in balance but overall as a translation from Bandits and Psychos I think it is incredibly interesting and faithful.

      @@theobell2002 BL3 had the best characters in the franchise until New Tales! Vaughn was improved so much, got rid of all that stupid nuance bro, melee is boring so Krieg is bad, faithful character design is pretentious (but you have to have a very high IQ to know that), Maya was a useless character and Krieg x Maya was boring. We at Gearbox intend to break new ground by opening Borderlands 4 with Fran fisting a bisexual octogenarian demi-boy with a scat fetish! But that's not all - ladies, gentlemen, we bring you... *Octavio x Ava!*

  • @frankwest5388
    @frankwest5388 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Krieg is the most interesting character in all of Borderlands history from a gameplay perspective.
    His skill trees all do their own thing but have synergies and his “goal” is a unique in a way that encourages aggressive engagement.
    I still believe that most characters have boring playstyles with massive gameplay overlap but Krieg is the exception and that makes his the most fun.

  • @ozeem5644

    I know it's in the card for Release the Beast but I have a feeling some people may still not know. To determine if you are at the right amount of HP for Release the Beast you can just look for the exclamation mark next to your health bar. If the exclamation mark is there, using your action skill will activate Release the Beast.

    This was very informative. I knew about the Sheriff Badge increasing fire rate for Buzz Axe throws, but not that skill in the fire tree.
    Plus that was (one of) my gripes with Krieg, which was the feeling that I kept downing myself (from Silence the Voices) and I didn't feel like I could kill anything fast enough. Now I have an idea of what to go for for melee Krieg.
    Keep it up Joltz!

    Another cool trick Joltz didnt mentioned is using Turtle shields to lower your health, then equiping your Rough Rider/Adaptive shield and a health relic, youll be able to activate Release The Beast as soon as you leave the menu :D without damaging yourself and since this is done in the menu you can do it during combat. You dont have to wait till OP Levels, this works very early.

    Roid Shields are actually still very viable on Krieg for melee builds, as his STV self damage is NOT determined by them. The bonus from them doesnt apply to the self hit. STV determines its damage ONLY from your base melee and grenade damage (including BAR bonuses). So use roid shields all you want early-mid or even rather late game! They can give very good help on early build boss fights.

    Roid damage actually does not apply to Silence the Voices, you do not do increased self damage with it because StV is coded as grenade damage rather than melee (The same reason Fuel the Blood increases self damage). Roid shields are bad because you need the extra HP to survive in general.

    I think this is the best why to continue the road to OP10 series so it like the old video but not such a strain on you.
    But the cost of less uploads but quality is better than quantity at this point I think.
