Borderlands 2 | Top 5 Most overpowered Weapons, and Guns

[@Justice4TheDead]

You don’t get the lady fist by turning it into hyperion you get it from turning it into Uma you get the tidal wave from Hyperion good video either way

[@0fficalHellfire]

Shit that’s right, obviously. Cause it’s a sister weapon of the lady finger from the first game. I just thought that cause it’s made by Hyperion. Thank you for the correction though

[@Christian-Prepper]

OK someone help me out here. I have tried 4 times to get the unkept Harold about 6 hours per try. I git him in both spots when he appears. I never get a drop from him. It is very frustrating after 24 hours ish of trying. I am on the xbox 360 and any help would be appreciated

[@Justice4TheDead]

@@Christian-Prepper depending on if you have dlc the Harold is much easier to get from torgue vending machines if not you just gotta keep farming savage lee for the Harold he’s got a 10 percent chance to drop it while the vending machines have a 16% to have one in them good luck and keep farming

[@ultimatestuff7111]

@@Christian-Preppermonth late, it’s just bad luck, you should only need 10 kills to get it, lol your best bet would be to watch a rainbow to hopefully get better luck

[@thormckinley1264]

I respect your top 5 list but if it were me it’d be 1. Grog nozzle 2. Lascoux 3. Lynda 4. lady fist 5. Conference call. I don’t have enough play time on norfleet/pimpernel to put in top 5 ‘i know they’re good’ and unkempt Harold feels universally overused as it can get. Hot take: I prefer Maggie over Harold.

[@joshuasummers9174]

The seraph weapon from the tina dlc known as the Florentine is a beast on all characters but specifically Gaige and Maya. Slag and shock damage with every shot

[@peterjohansen3853]

My favourite SMG on Axton 😊

[@notyozuka7348]

The pre-patched Conference Call was a completely different experience... I remember dropping one from the Warrior on my very first playthrough of base BL2, man... Teenage me liked the design and shotguns in general, so it went into my kit immediately. After a few test shots, I took it into another Warrior fight.... The poor guy might as well have been called the Swiss Cheese... The thing was a beast!

[@AmekoElite]

The CC was never nerfed the Bee's interaction with listed pellets is what was nerfed

[@cyanide7270]

Personally, as a Sal main, the Butcher was my go to. Get one in slag, fire and corrosive and i could run an entire level without ever running out of ammo and slap everything to death. That said the Lyuda was also VERY fun and powerful with him.

[@LogoSystemCG]

interfacer is way stronger but yh butcher is good

[@LunaToon209]

Mad love for you bro. You & Joltz my go to’s for bl2 content 💯

[@ckmishn3664]

Probably should have mentioned the drunk effect of the Grog Nozzle, as well as the offhand crit you can get from it with Sal.

[@dasamman71]

You can also buy an Unkempt Harold from the Torgue vending machines in the Torgue DLC for 613 tokens.

[@zakwilliamson1959]

I agree with the Lady Fist being number one because whenever i farm the Handsome sorcerer for something i use Salvador with a bee shield and i dual wield Lady Fists and it destoys him

[@Millermand]

Noob question here 😊. Shouldn't the Grog Nozzle be in your left hand?. I never really understood all the mechanics of left hand right hand, but I always have DPUH in my right hand and Grog Nozzle in my left hand. Also you mention that the Lady fist should be in main hand, to give your offhand weapon 800% crit damage. But shouldn't it be in your offhand to give your main hand 800 % damage?.

[@0fficalHellfire]

Yes! You would be correct. Misspoke

[@Millermand]

@@0fficalHellfire Thx 👍

[@Millermand]

[@Rockin_Kat]

I like Fibber the most (especially Redundant version with double shot).

[@duskess6411]

6:45 you dont want the harold in your left hand like youd do for the pimpernel or orphan maker, you wont get most of salvadors bonus applied to the harold if its in the offhand

[@0fficalHellfire]

This is very true

[@metcrix110]

I definitely can't deny your top 5 but for my #6 I'd throw the Topneaa because it has very high damage and splash and comes in all elements I think it would definitely deserve that spot because it's got multiple loot spawns to farm from

[@SlopeDudeNiiice]

Topneaa should be #1

4.99K Subscribers. I hit Sub, went to your channel I see 5K. (I probably wasn't THE one) Congrats on 5K. I've probably watched a dozen of your videos in the past week while checking out BL2 videos while I'm playing through BL2 VR on Steam (and a wireless Quest 2, soon Quest 3). Keep up the good work! I appreciate both the content and the glimpses into your life's history.

[@0fficalHellfire]

Thank you so much. I’m glad you’re enjoying the videos! Don’t make yourself a stranger!

[@Jerry1814.]

Back when I very first started Borderlands 2 many years ago. I was lucky enough to open the cardboard box in sanctuary that's next to the Fast Travel station and somehow found a fibber pistol in it. this gun carried me from maybe level 20 to the very end of the game. It's the variant where you shoot the ground and nine pellets come out of it I think. So I'd honestly put that in my top five the fibber pistol

[@Liamo051]

Little fib in there as you talk about the fibber. Ye I’m afraid you can’t get uniques from random boxes mate

[@ElitePenguin004]

As a zero player the pitchfork is my favorite sniper, i got it from a loot midget and it carried me from bloodwing to warrior

[@OhCrapI_He]

As a UVHM player, I have never used the Grog Nozzle because I don't like how its disgustingly strong lifesteal makes you unkillable I stick with Transfusion grenades, healing skills, and the Rubi instead

[@benzoladlam]

i got the barking pimpernell with slag at level 50 at the end of TVHM, I am not level 65 in UVHM and don't feel the need to use any other sniper rifle. it is excellent for slagging enemies.

[@hacker4chan180]

[@EpicCitron]

Have you done a top 10 or top 5 of the best non unique weapons in Borderlands 2? I've seen a small handful of lists like that before, but I'd be interested to see a recent version and also your thoughts. Maybe instead of doing a list that consists of things like the Quad, Ravager, and Snider, you could do underrated non-unique weapons

[@0fficalHellfire]

Awesome ideas! I’m going to take some of these down in my notes. Thank you so much for the suggestion and keep your eyes out there.

if you do the peppermill bug with sal does it deal both damage types or does one take priority

the original pellet has whatever element your pimpernel is, so a slag pimpernel has 1 slag bullet and 5 explosive pellets.

[@xboxworstgamer4]

I'm a Xbox One Player, You think that Quest Farming On console is slowly painful for Xbox One/Series Players, but I found a way around that, How I quest farm is like 1st step: Save the game when the quest says Turn In 2st step: Turn in the quest. 3rd step: If I don't get it, I like sign out of my Account by pressing the big Xbox Icon button on my controller, then go to the accounts section, then sign out, This is because the game doesn't save your progress when you log out, or get disconnected, the game doesn't know what Person is playing, because they signed out of their account. 4th step: immediately Sign in into your account after you did the 3rd step. 5th Step: Reload the game, and turn the quest in, and repeat the 2nd step until you get the specific version you wanted. This Method helped me get my Sandhawk, Pimpernel, Lady Fist, Fibber, Rubi, and Heartbreaker more faster on Xbox, and this method is way faster than just quitting the game, and then waiting for the BL2 loading Intro, which took hours. Also, As a Borderlands Fan myself, I really love your Content so much, I think you might became VinylicPuma's New Rival if enough time passes.

[@0fficalHellfire]

Aww, thank you so much :) that means more then you know! As for your method, I have never heard this! I’ve made the jump to pc long ago but a lot of borderlands 2’s current player base is spread out across consoles. I’m going to do a full video on how to do this next week! With credit to you of course. This (if it works, which I believe you. I’m going to test today) would he essentially read only farming on console!

I have never gotten the norfleet to drop from the dude. Only the huge bug and it dropped 1st try and never tired it again. It's powerful yeah but like the plasma coil in 4 it's so annoying to get its just becomes your everyday use until you get sick of it. And with the norfleet adding absolutely zero difficulty to the game when the coil needs you to actually aim at everything I just stopped using it. There's a fun op weapon then there's the lazy op weapons. The coil is like the dpuh, huge damage just have to aim it first.
