Borderlands The Pre-Sequel: The Shooting Star - Legendary Items Guide

[@AdmiralBahroo]

So it is, how to get the Shooting Star Roid Shield inside of the Pre-Sequel. As we have already shown this thing is a monster of a shield and here you will learn which quest you need to pick up and who you need to kill. Remember to BACK UP YOUR SAVES before farming this guy as he is a ONE TIME ENCOUNTER! Anyway see you all in the next vid!

[@1i11en]

[@Yan_Alkovic]

Bahroo, I'd really like it if you did a parts guide for the lasers. Though I guess for efficiency you'd need Gibed to update first so you can get the parts you need easily. But please do that video soon as you can, alright?

[@turk645]

I'll try and help you find all the overpowered shit :P

[@arecold4222]

can u also do a unique series? please?

[@juhotuho10]

dear gear box and K2, remove this over powered item... thank you!

[@jyk000]

I'm excited for this series, not for myself, but for everyone. I remember when I got into Borderlands 2, and had a couple legendaries, a conference call, a volcano, a Legendary Mechromancer, and had no idea how to get more of these precious orange items. Then Yote (rest in peace) gave us all the greatest gift of all, and spent countless hours feeding us the information that simply just wasn't out there. Its great to see that you're carrying on his legacy. (Especially since I'd prefer you over MAK)...

[@SolidSpider195]

Didn't he read from the wiki on those videos? I liked his stuff but you did have the wiki, the information was "out there".

[@chrisszabo4149]

The wiki was filled with bullshit. It was edited by a lot of people from the forums, and some of the shit on their was completely made up.

[@SolidSpider195]

z AllowableBrute True that...

[@jyk000]

SolidSpider195 Yeah, Yote had connections in Gearbox and was the one who debunked the Savage Lee - Unkempt Harold debacle as well as the Shreddifier - Bone Shredder misconception from Brady Guides. The information was out there, but Yote brought it to a large audience.

[@AlexDestroyerOfEarth]

jyk000 I mean, he did fake his infinity drop just like everybody else in those days.

[@jango5550]

R.I.P. Yoteslaya. You will be missed

[@AdmiralBahroo]

Just a reminder, if you see him drop a green skin, that uses up his "Boss drop" which means that could have been the shield.

[@jaredbell3782]

what if your not even seeing the skin drop?

[@jaredbell3782]

jk, just got it, exactly three hours of farming

[@jaredbell3782]

So, my shield is glitches, and has a recharge delay of 0 secs, so it impossible for me to use the roid damage, but also impossible for me to down. Anyone else experiencing the same issue

[@dontworryaboutmyname1167]

damn that sucks

[@ELITESNIPER456]

Does that mean if the skin drops you can't get the shield anymore? Because I've been doing this over an hour and nothing. EDIT: Now I have gotten 4 skins, no shooting star.

[@enigmasdestiny1355]

Happy to see someone continue Yote's legend. Great Vid Bahroo!

[@fatbraz1lian]

For anyone wondering there was a patch where most bosses now respawn

[@WineRedEchos]

I got this legenday pistol maggie from one of those red rocks in the titans tundra or whatever that area right after you unlock concordia is called. I used that gun from lvl 13 to 22.

[@johnbrightwell8415]

My god I'm gonna miss yoteslaya, just glad someone will do legendary guides. :(

[@iiMAGINExThis]

This item will spawn in the item of the day in the health and shield machine. + 1 this

[@nicoinformatics]

For PC users you can set your save file to read only at the point where you start the farm/quest so you don't even need to do alt+F4s, just keep reloading the saves, and just unset the read-only when you got the shield.

[@souretsu95]

seeing that you had 1 shot to get this legendary in a technical playthrough, I think it might be the same for a few other guns. For instance, I got a flakker from the special tork in the quest quest "All the little creatures", but that specific tork hasn't spawned any other time to farm for another flakker.

[@lightningbolt1830]

Cool series, can't wait to see more.

[@beatswithrapsmain1304]

Just a heads up, you CAN run into a DAHL Mech Suit Noob and still get one...? That's where I got my lvl 23 one from so if you can find a way to farm those guys then GG? Just figured to pitch in a bit

[@TheDaxter500]

Also, I found out which enemy drops the BP. The Tork Dredgers. Managed to get like 5 BPS off of them. They were around lvl 8-9 so I sold them quite quickly. They have a somewhat average drop rate.

[@shinlucario]

The Shooting Star was actually my first Legendary in Pre-Sequal.

[@zee2x793]

#RIP YoteSlaya We hhaven'tforgot about you holmes.

[@lostdilettante]

Daniel Smith you are such a hypocrite xD

[@lostdilettante]

wildatheart499 why respect him?he got drunk and killed himself and his friends,i loved his vids but he was not a good person.

[@lostdilettante]

wildatheart499 i never said he deserved to die,he was just stupid and got drunk and tried to beat a fucking train,yes everyone makes mistakes,but most mistakes dont kill 4 people.

[@fopplet]

Fun Fact: His friend was driving.

[@lostdilettante]

TrainerRed its cute how you try to defend him and then get caught in a lie on the same day.

[@TheDaxter500]

Going to farm that guy on TVHM when I eventually play as Athena, Dashboarding is going to take a while but at least he's not that far. Great vid Bah! (sorry for not showing up in the streams, don't want to get spoiled from the main plot.. IMMERSION and all)

[@OpaqueVideos]

I think Tork Dredgers have a high drop rate for the Bonus Package. My brother and I found 2 within a minute of each other, both dropped from Dredgers.

[@bool7994]

Is that laser gun you are weilding to kill him on the kill where you get the shield a legendary? If so what is it called?

[@Flipzy18]

Are you going to be redoing this whole series when you reach level cap and all dlc level caps?

[@B0SSNINE]

Can we get some OP builds? I've mostly heard of the melee Athena with this shield along with nearly any Nisha, but I've also heard that Clap's Rainbow thingy is beast and then Wilhelm just seems awesome... so yeah. Thanks Bahroo!

[@Crayolaenjoyer69420]

I miss yoteslaya

[@Christian01593]

UmAdBr0 me too

[@CakesHere]

The BP is in the game and I believe that they drop form tork queens but I could be wrong and I got a very lucky world drop.

[@MegaRedrum96]

I want to assume you can dashboard on xbox if you dont get it, like when getting parts for a turn-in weapon?

[@klbrp1273]

Hey bahroo, I found a lv 23 ZX-1 , a legendary laser rifle that has homing fire projectiles during the zarpadon fight, not from zapadon, but from one of the other enemies. I don't know if it was specific from on of the ascended enemies or a random drop, but maybe a possible farming location.

[@kiwi1368]

You cant farm her but it drops from zarp or her mech suit

[@jarekIM]

I guess with the grinder they will have a lot of one try bosses dropping legendary, I just need a boss that drops a legendary, gun, shield, class mod, oz kit and grenade mod and you can grind the rest.

[@dragonspwn6182]

hey bahroo i have gotten the nukem to drop from flame knuckle in the beginning of the game im not sure if you would be cool with trying to figure out a way to farm him easily but me and my friend got one from him after starting true vault hunter mode

[@joshblaylock4439]

Bahroo I was just wondering what the best one you have found was I just farmed a lvl 45 one with 5.4k capacity, 2.3 recharge rate, 8.21 delay and 69692 roid.

[@aurelijus1]

killed that guy over 50 times, still hasn't dropped it...

[@aurelijus1]

Finally dropped, spent like 1.5-2hours farming it. Kill, alt+f4 - repeat...

[@Fistacles]

Aurelijus U Im 40 minutes into it. taking forever :S

[@aurelijus1]

yea, its not as easy as stated in the vid, but it will come eventually

[@aurelijus1]

Btw, im playing Nisha, she is not the best in melee, but the dmg she deals with that melee tree and that shield is insane, just did a 500k to turret im level 43 o.O, and 150-300k to thos dahl soldiers xd... One shotted that dahl womans robot, and her...

[@Fistacles]

Still farming it.. took a 30 minute break ;--;

[@runescape2102]

he is not a one time encounter and you can farm him using save and quit. you also dont need the quest cuz he is always there

[@caesardlf179]

Bahroo, have you found any references or Easter Eggs to the youtuber "yoteslaya"

[@BraningtonTV]

My melee Athena will now become a goddess. Thanks Bahroo :)

[@madhunter9649]

I just got a legendary shield similar to this called the Bigg Thumppr but i think it might be better. the stats are 5682 cap, recharge rate 2546, recharge delay 6.30, and roid damage 65,118 at level 48

[@ActionJackson143]

The bonus package drops from turks in the outsource canyons had 3 drop in 10 minuets today all the same game

[@Wapfgaming]

Are there any other moxxi guns other than the laser one and the probe?

[@RogerBOnYT]

Do I have to skip this quest if I want in on a high level? Or will all the quests be available again in true vaulthunter mode?

[@NBaker197]

I LOVE THIS! I'm so happy someone decided to pick up where Yote left off and do a guide. I have one thing to ask though, can you please sample the weapon or sheild at the end of the video, because I don't want to farm for hours and end up not liking it :/

[@RevolutionSerf]

I dropped sticky longbow bonus package from a tork on lvl 10 i dunno if it's confirmed drop but i got it from the bigger tork dunno his prefix not queen im sure

[@Kurlzz115]

I'm playing on Xbox 360 and I understand how to do it but is F4 the same as going to the dashboard on the 360?

[@j03y2012]

Thx for this vid could u do a series for basic recipes on the grinder that would be amazing! thx :)

[@ApolloAssassin]

For console players like I, in which I have a Xbox 360, do I just dashboard then if it doesn't drop?? Don't really know what the PS3 menu screen is called.

[@Detroit_Gamer_]

this reminds me of that one shield that was found on the app "loot the world"

[@Detroit_Gamer_]

it was called the bigg thumppr borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Bigg_Thumppr

[@yolyrodz33]

Does that app even work? I have it, but every time I decrypt something it's a bunch of letters.

[@Detroit_Gamer_]

yolyrodz33 no idea havent used since it came out, gearbox didnt support for very long

[@henrikdavidila9646]

Detroit Gamer The Bigg Thumppr exists in the game from what i have heard.

[@Detroit_Gamer_]

henrik davidila which game? if ur talking BL2 it doesnt

[@HotAkPL]

The drop rate is very good. I just got a Flakker for a random tork. I am not even trying to farm or anything. I would feed it to the grinder, but it won't let me :/

[@fkriep]

Same with me too lol

[@Brutalyte616]

From what I've observed so far you can't grind Uniques. You can grind Blues and even Purples without any problems, but anything with red text seems to be too tough for the Grinder to handle.

[@FadedARC88]

***** i can't grind purples...

[@deathjoker666]

I got a lobbed four season grenade mod form a tork. Is the flakker good? In BL2 its awful theworst weapon in the game. Hopefully its useful in this game.

[@fkriep]

***** Its exactly the same as in bl2

[@MajorDerpington]

I have a legendary grenade called the four seasons on the pc and its dropped from the badass kragons i believe as i killed one and got it

[@satanasteguarda]

I love this series, keep up the nice work.

[@poon4250]

I got a tortoise from this guy aswell? Is he supposed to drop that or was it random?

[@henrikneumann758]

He said you can farm for a better one, but how is that possible since you wont altf4 after you dropped it and you will save your game. You will need to be in TVHM to farm it again, right?

[@deathjoker666]

I found a lobbed four seasons grenade mod from a tork or how ever they're spelled.

[@jsmitty6005]

Drop rates are so amazing!

[@JamalGleeson]

Can you get it if you take the quest on your second playthrough on the same character?

[@mckhenna]

I'm on my first play through. Did most of the missions in this area. But that mission hasn't been avaliable yet. Level 20. Anything I need to do to be able to do this mission?

[@GrungeGarageN]

hey bahroo i found a new unique legendary to borderlands the presequel, I could lend it to you if you wanted to make a video about it. (its level a level 13 weapons though).

[@JamiFeeds]

as I play on Xbox, how do I create a backup file? And how do I use this to keep on fighting the boss?

[@BigMilo0]

i forgot to dashboard after i killed him :( but i just got the ZX-1 legendary laser gun form zarpedon so :D

[@nathanconnolly1]

have they hotfixed the drop rate on this or am i really unlucky, currently 60 runs with nothing to show

[@explosiveben]

If you do this mission it cancels him spawning I found him before the mission and got the shield first try

[@Gleams02]

On xbox can u only dashboard and not back up ur save or do u still have to back up ur save

[@thkr87]

Do I have to dashboard when I've killed that courier? I play on 360?

[@fluffypancakes1957]

Could you use the read only method for this?

[@rickcorkum89]

I just noticed that my shooting star went from doing 101,000 on the card to 9,837. Did it get nerfed? I dont remember seeing anything in the patch notes about it. just though i would point this out.

[@sfielding10001]

Will you make a vid on an athena Melee build

[@ShavierTheHedgehog]

Today got Quasar from Felecity, The ZX-1 (laser with homming bullets) from Zarpedon in mech and then from Zarpedon herself Prismatic Bulwark (shield that absorb, give resist and increase dmg with laser weapons). Today was a good day :P

[@Pertrinkrey]

yes finally someone starts a guide!

[@chrislaurenzo581]

Hey Bahroo really glad about this series, however can you talk about the red text, other then that great video

[@jaydi9429]

I received a shooting star and the rerouter shield at the same time in the mutated area.

[@zigzagpapers8]

if he's a one time encounter can you still gib your gear to your level then?

[@deanredmond9026]

might sound ridiculous but have been farming forever, do u need to play as athena for it to drop? all the people ive watched get it has been athena

[@p0nts3]

Hey , I'm wondering.. Can you do split screen? And say if the shield drops or skin can I pick it up with the split screen controller?(making sure it doesn't save) and after dash board out? Please let me know.(:

[@Doomthinkingman]

No it'll auto save both screens since it's on the same hard drive

[@lostella81]

Yes can if u do the kill with the 2nd player, pick up weapon n save n quit, it will only save 2nd player. I have two lvl 21 shooting star from same play thru

[@_aaron]

got that shield today at the first drop😍

[@NoOneIsPerfect_og]

Hey nice fsrming guides man! Could you please put together an Guide on how to get the OZ kit 3DD1.E? I'm sure it will help me and every other Laser-Nisha using guy out there :)

[@borderlands2656]

Playing through the story as Wilhelm and I got a bulwark from zapped on

[@CookingEmi]

I wish yoteslaya was doing this RIP Yoteslaya

[@Veegs.]

Just got it, took about 7 tries. thx bahroo

[@vict9126]

nice

[@kingandyk3439]

Bruce in the Pickle side missions to save his sister drops the Supernova legendary shield and RedBelly drops the striker shotgun

[@wowplayer907]

Got it. Its been fixed or something cuz at lvl 22 mine does 490+ roid dmg. Thought you should know

[@colindonovan2573]

So, did they patch this so it's NOT a one-time encounter anymore? I'm playing on PS3 currently on True Vault Hunter mode and he does respawn for me. So my question is: do you have the farm the Powersuit Noob Courier WHILE doing the Red, then Dead mission, or will the increased drop rate stay the same if he's respawning for me (I already completed the mission). I've only tried a few times so far, but no luck.

[@colindonovan2573]

Sky Weaver UPDATE: Just got the Shooting Star from him. I dont know if this is exclusively for PS3 (or console for that matter) but, he respawns for me, even after the mission is completed and passed in. Only took me a couple tries to get it.

[@JohnPeacekeeper]

Is the shield even worth it though? It doesn't seem like it'll save my ass as much as a good elemental or Order from BL2

[@mileshonsberger1994]

I really hope gearbox is gonna fix this issue by making the bosses encounter able again like BL2. We shouldn't even be having to deal with this, I mean what were they thinking? Its like every boss is the bagman now

[@JohnPeacekeeper]

lol I remember playing as Claptrap through this. Tassiter's incebtive for him: "I'll be your best friend."

[@fathogan]

I am very unlucky, I farmed this guy for well over an hour and did not get one boss drop! I know drops can take awhile sometimes but do you think i need to complete the story on the playthrough I'm farming?

[@joshblaylock4439]

The Bigg Thumper legendary shield is just as good btw, the I got out of Ninas vending machine in Elseesum does 8k roid damage

[@jacobpappo4989]

DARN IT, I already completed every side mission except for like 2. I know I finished the Red is dead one though and that is so annoying since I'm melee Athena. Oh well, I guess there is always TVHM.

[@StarBrlight]

And also more characters

[@jacobpappo4989]

shawn kieren yeah

[@MrPS1XO]

Patrick Pappo get someone to dupe it to you.

[@jacobpappo4989]

PS1XO naw, I don't dupe, its not what the devs wanted so I don't do it. I'll just get it from the grinder, farm some thingies and then grind me a shooting star. Also YOU ARE A PSYCHOPATH

[@ByronJellick]

Patrick Pappo you cant grind shields only hope is a vender

[@isaacybarra2534]

Now I know that the doppelgänger won't come out for a little while but I found a clad mode for him whil farming iwajira

[@freddyspoons8512]

So if im playing on a 360 instead of alt f4 do i just hit power button or am i just screwed

[@Dhreir]

Very helpful, thank you !

[@jxter00]

holy crap he dropped it for me the first try, i didnt know that would be a really rare one to get! it was the first and only legendary that dropped for me so far

[@dontworryaboutmyname1167]

you trna dupe it for me though

[@jackteare7688]

What are the best parts to get on the shield?

[@Zmekch]

finaly got to lvl 50. started to farm for the shield but the guy didnt respawn when i alt + f4:ed (i did not pick up the eco) when i start the game the echo is just lying there. i guess its time to farm it in vending machienes or what?

[@TrueDAN]

I presume dashboarding on xbox works? Or would you have to turn the Xbox off? Just curious as I want to make sure to do it right

[@Tacodude1944]

dashboard its faster

[@TrueDAN]

Thanks man :)

[@michaelrussell7427]

He actually spawns now in the same area. i am farming him right now for the shield

[@Freeanator]

Reminds me of yoteslaya

[@LLFoolJ]

Freemstar Brown fuck yoteslaya. Im so tired of people idolizing this guy for makinh choices that ended his own life and others

[@biscuitwanted8235]

Guys, if you want multiple shields, back up your save, farm the shield & get it. Once you have got it, put it in the claptrap locker that can transfer guns between saves. Now delete the save you got the shield on, use your backup and grab that shield out of the locker. (Helps if you want to do it multiple times in a play through)

[@dontworryaboutmyname1167]

how do you back up your save on xbox though?

[@biscuitwanted8235]

Dont Worry About My Name Leave the game, go into your settings - storage - hard disk drive/cloud (depending on what you use) - borderlands the pre sequel, find your save (it will be named whatever your character in the game is named) and then copy that to your cloud/hdd (depending on what you don't use) when done, replace the original file with the copy. voila.

[@jeffhardy868iscool]

Does this still drop from him ? I have tried it atleast 100 times and nothing , is it just my luck or just it not drop anymore ?

[@ShakeITyEA]

do i need to alt+f4 or can u just click leave without saving?

[@xFlow777]

thanks man!! i really wanna get this bad boy bofore and IF gearbox patchs it, i hope they dont hheeheh

[@Kupos76]

Also, what if we have already done the mission for the probe? Can we get it on new character and then put in stash? Or am I screwed?

[@Ravenjim93]

You will re get it on TVHM. probably tvhm will let u reset like uvhm did on BL2. cant say for sure tho since i am stin in normal mode

[@ftmveiled5351]

Just reset or do it on true vault hunter

[@FoolHunter8462]

Braedan Millett how do i reset?

[@albertovillalobos5145]

Hey Im not sure if any body found it yet but I found a homing bonas pakage by killing tart queen in titan industrial facility. Its a ledgendairy by the way

[@gta4fan556]

Also i did a solo raidboss kill The Invincible Sentinel in Elseer after you beat the game. It is very hard i will warn you.

[@278monster]

damn, allready beat this mission, sombodt abel to dupe one for me on ps3 ?

[@wilkimhernandez]

shield is really good for athena and xiphos tree skill
