Borderlands Characters That Should Be Playable

[@hallowfiended]

Can I DM you for a different reason? Like wanting to share my concepts and ideas?

Steve could be a half serious half joke hunter like Claptrap was in Pre sequel, no clue whatsoever as to give Steve as a power though.

The Power Of Love

[@Mc_childe]

Heyooooooo!!

[@hacapoa_agent_249]

he says heyo and distracts enemies

[@codymorrison9756]

I think the most important part is having a genuine reason to hunt for vaults and such. torgue wouldn't work as he was busy inventing weapons and not adventuring but tina would, as we already see her with the B team adventuring.

[@Technical_Espada]

2 words: Eridium Explosions

[@orest395]

I feel like moxxi would be a health regen character, and having synergy with moxxi weapons

[@absolutefloof4823]

Three trees for moxxie are pretty simple honestly. And her action skill could be her blowing a kiss. Trees could be ; Corruptive charmer, Fiery Vixen, and Promiscuous Protector. Names could use some work but those are pretty basic ideas. Charmer could be focused on caustic and controlling enemies, fiery vixen could be based on health regen and fire, maybe even skill recharge. Protector could augment the skill into a taunt that attracts enemies.

[@mikoajpietrych6168]

Something casino themed should also be there.

[@vamirinoon]

​@@mikoajpietrych6168yeah maybe a skill that makes certain actions roll a boost, maybe something where you cant crit anymore and instead have a chance to hit a "jackpot" which would be a mag with massively increased damage. or a skill could be "blood booze" where she can get stacks whenever she picks up syringes and it gives her boosts

[@MrStewCar]

Marcus would be great if he had very large gun space in his backpack/bank space ("HOARDING" could be one of his skill trees), and inventoried guns added to his proficiency with weapons, due to his ability to practice with them. Make the gun vendor thing be a skill, by adding the ability to sell weapons to other players, maybe?

[@AkaUforia]

Marcus' action skill could revolve around money. Either make it so the more money he has, he gets bonuses for, or make it so that the last digit of his cash stack has an effect, for example: 0 increases accuracy, 1 increases fire rate, 2 increases critical hit damage, 3 gives his gun a fire attribute, 4 shock, 5 explosions, 6 acid, 7 slag, 8 cryo, and 9 increase damage, or something like that... or can just summon a gun or ammo vendor to appear, crushing any enemy where it was, and giving you access to a vendor if you're needing a new gun or more ammo?

[@roykennedy]

Okay left field suggestion from me, Rudiger (aka Grease Face) from the beginning of Tales from the Borderlands, if you don't remember him, he is the bandit guy who runs the food cart. My idea is his ability is to summon a level-dependent group of raiders, with the different trees specializing in different bandits

[@dustyconrad3255]

I got it, Marcus' perfect skill. After having acquired, and researched Infinity pistols of every element, he secretly develops the prototype Infinity GUNtlet. A rotating minigun firing a different element every round. Throw in Slag as a special just for him and I think thatd TEAR

[@an0rmalname179]

Wait but the infinity can't be slag (or explosive) Still very cool idea

[@bulletcatcher2001]

Idk why I thought Zed was gonna be number 1. I’d like to see a Nomad type character or maybe play as a Loader Bot.

I think for Borderlands 4 they should do for a vault Hunter line up is. 1. Tiny Tina 2. Mad Moxxi 3. Rhys 4. Mister Torgue

[@TheKaosKilla16]

Tina as The Bunkermaster (Have her throw dice at people with RNG effects.) Moxxi as The Succubus (Let her inherit Tyreen's powers) Rhys as The Exec (have him bring Vaughn as an npc companion.) Mr.Torgue as The Boomzerker (Self explanatiory)

[@Spid4r1]

​@@TheKaosKilla16or make Rhys Just point a Finger Gun at the enemy, say "Fusshh" and the enemy Just explodes at the placebo effect Thanks to Rhys giant badassery

[@thebonecollector3935]

Idea: Make BL4 the last game in the timeline and have the story centered around the Eridian vs. Vault Hunter war, then add a ton of fan favorite characters as DLC. We could have new characters, every previously playable character, and/or pretty much any character from the franchise as a playable character because it doesn't need to make canonical sense anymore

[@alterapp8880]

Finally people out here thinking a little like me. Bout time, folks are catching up.

[@fahadmutairi8704]

This is a good idea but knowing gearbox am afraid they would make it like "BATTLEBORN" and we all know how that ended up 😂

[@leakydolphin4709]

This is actually a great idea 💡

[@badbuddy0934]

Wasn't eridian extinct?

[@ViApp0]

How about no? If you add a ton of DLC characters then these characters shouldn't be anywhere in the base game. Which is why characters like Moxxi, Marcus, Torgue or TIna (and super Siren Tannis don't you guys love Sirens here Tannis is one too, how cool is that???) won't work as playable VH outside of something like a Tales game because someone needs to man the shop and give quests.

[@Hell_diver1]

Markus action skill could be his bus driving over someone. So he could be like “need a ride?” And his bus just rams into a group of enemies

[@chandlerpearce6213]

That’s what I thought Jsut a bud comically appearing

[@TheUltimateBastich]

If Moxxi becomes playable, her pillows should cover half the screen.

[@Mr_Chasm]

I always wanted Dr Zed as a dlc character he always there but never really fleshed out too much. I could imagine his action skill “Fix them up.” A team/self action to repair shields and bonus health. His trees could be: Determination for more of a dps build for solo play and that he lived in Firestone by himself most of his life he had to get tough to survive. Needs and Needles for co op and healing like Maya’s harmony kit with other team support. And “No license No problem” focusing on all the wacky stuff Dr. Zed can do with his action skill as it’s stated he doesn’t have a medical license. His reason to hunt the vaults is to prove his medical theories about Eridium and finally earn his license.

[@oldmanonyoutube]

I was really hoping Tiny Tina would be a playable character in Borderlands 3 where she would go bat sh*t insane like Krieg in Borderlands 2. Like her action skill would be to pull out twin rocket launchers and level the play field.

[@LFXGaming]

I honestly remember that 2017 tech test showing off Moze convincing people that it was Tina as a new character ahahaha

[@TheKaosKilla16]

Have her be the character with the funny name tagine. Tina as THE PROBLEM

[@Souplord1]

In bl3 typhon uses his whip to sling off of things. Would be cool if we could get something like strand form destiny 2

[@DedHobbit]

I missed the vote, but I think crazy Earl would be a funny character. It's absurd, but I want to see him as a playable character. He was in all the games in the series (even in the pre-sequel)

[@HandsomeMushy]

Idea: standalone game called The Adventures of B Team featuring Brick, Mordecai, and Tina.

[@an0rmalname179]

Here's a dumb idea for a vault hunter: Steve the bandit, he just screams Heyo so loud it crashes the game. Also great video man!

[@iceeyu412]

Where's Fiona ?! At the end of tales she's litteraly recognized as a vault hunter by Athena. You even got the Derringer as an action skill. We need her back. (Bro bro bro bro...)

[@sadsin6664]

Scooter could be a character he throws wrenchs as an action skill

[@joeshmoe735]

I could see marcus having skill tree like timmothy in the pre-sequel where it revolves around money

[@CthulhuianBunny]

For Moxxi’s skill, I’d give her something akin to the Brewmasters from WoW, where they toss a keg of beer that slows/dazes enemies and gives a massive debuff to their accuracy. Skill trees would be elemental (obviously) that can change the keg's damage type, some seduction-based one that causes her damage (or the booze barrel) to occasionally turn enemies against each other, and of course a support/healing tree like Maya's Harmony where her damage can heal allies. As a fan of the nomads’ design, I'd like to see one of their lot in a new Borderlands game. If it's a prequel, then Captain Flynt or Bad Maw.

[@christianwiberg447]

Moxxxi spacial skill slots or dice roll. Some kind of gambling skill. Bring scooter back that's a good quest for her.

[@ghjjiyeqsg1052]

For BL4, I think this would be a pretty funny line up for characters: Mad Moxxi as a character focused on self-healing, team healing, and enemy debuffing. Steve as a joke character whose lines are all just ‘heyo’ and him having proficiency with things like ARs and Grenades, while also having skills that attribute to his iconic saying of ‘Heyo’, with different skill trees allowing for his ‘Heyo’ roar to either intimidate enemies, boost team health and shield regen, or boost team damage overall. Mr. Torgue would kill as a character, just look at the BL2 character mod for a playable Mr. Torgue to see why. He’d be like Krieg, but more explosion-centric, having skill trees that can increase AOE damage and range, or ignite enemies caught in an explosion, or even give him a melee skill tree where his flexing taunts the enemies and can grant Mr. Torgue damage reduction. Lastly, have Alastair Hammerlock as the sniper/pistol dominant character, having skill trees that either double damage against creatures, increase accuracy and allow shots to Pierce enemies, or lastly increase reload speed of snipers and pistols. So, in conclusion, you have a layout for four playable characters being a promiscuous barkeeper, a gag character who only says ‘Heyo’, a explosion-loving man that always is excited and gets censored with every swear for the lols, and finally a gay man who decides to hunt bigger game with a lot of his husband’s best firearms.

[@dangdudedan8756]

captain scarlett would be amazing if she were written basically exactly the same and canonically betrays the cast at the end of the game. perfect for people that like the game but hate major quest givers after hearing the same line reads 10+ times

[@temmieton9755]

I do like this list, and I do have some ideas for Moxxi and Marcus's action skills. 1. Moxxi's action skill could be what her weapons to best, Have a healing effect on the side, during the actual skill 50% of damage is added for healing too, and part of the skill tree could be "weaken gun damage but increase DoT duration and damage" to make it more of a general healing tool. 2. Marcus could have some sort of action skill that goes with his "No refunds" policy, Something like during the action skill 40% of damage taken is reflected back to the attacker as a no-refunds type thing, and other things could happen like a skill that adds a chance for extra money to drop off of an attacker killed by the reflection damage.

[@benebbitt8359]

I’m sorry but imo Rhys is a shit pick. He already did vault hunting in Tales and then he became Atlas boss He hated being a vault hunter and always wanted to be the head of a corporation

[@monkegaming3903]

they should make a rougelike where we can play as and unlock all these characters, something like Issac but way less serious

[@tyicbranch2734]

I can't see this happening at all gearbox did say they wouldn't make previous playable characters as playable characters in the future games and they also wont make any previous characters that were in borderlands game playable it's why it's always going to be new character's

Honestly I would like to have a Nomad as a vault hunter so can hear the character say “gimme your daMn loot”, but in all honesty the riot shields would be something

I wish we could play as Roland, he didn't get enough screen time in borderlands 2 and I know there's already a prequel but I would love to see an even earlier one with him as a playable character!

Marcus ability one summons a loop crate that drops in full of ammunition so like a supply ability 24 let's say 60 seconds or eliminated amount of time you Can swap between 4 randomly picked legendary guns that will disappear from your inventory after the time-limited expires you can't sell them or anything and then like in terms of skill tree upgrades and skill tree upgrades and stuff better discounts at gun stores machine sell more stuff Better prices for both buying and selling weapons Another skill tree upgrade could give the shops just better inventory and more inventory in general and maybe because he's weapons dealer another part Of the skill tree you could unlock Machines have like a special access terminal that only sell unique weapons to him Maybe you can have an ability that's like all sales are final and like the enemy's guns malfunction and don't work properly Or you could call it like faulty firearms or something Maybe because Marcus is a merchant you could give him the ability to bring in like some sort of robots or something like being able to summon different kinds of support Or maybe give him like some sort of a Do over ability where weapons create will close and open back up with better weapons Or you could give him some sort of ability where he could trade in multiple guns and get like another gun almost like the gun fusion I think from the pre sequel game

[@a.c.c.5303]

Rose could be a cool character to play as honestly. She low key could also be a siren with the tattoos she has hiding her siren tattoos or something idk. She's just cool and I think she'd be fun.

[@eryvac0074]

For Moxxie, I'd basically have her play as the games siren (i know she obviously isn't one, but she'd play similarly), with an elemental based tree, since all her guns are elemental based. Then the next tree would be about healing and regeneration, since that's the main appeal OF said guns. And her third tree would probably be about team based stuff, but you already suggested that a lot, so we wouldn't want EVERY character to be based around that, so I'd make her third tree be more about money, since she used to be a thing with Marcus, and she's got the tip jar thing. Maybe she gets stacks of tips for whenever she picks up money in combat, and those stacks give her a damage or accuracy buff or something. This tree would probably fit Marcus better, but still

[@babysastrowrld2106]

Would be nice when the Final Borderlands game comes out. Make CLAPTRAP as a playable character. As the game would have a poetical ending. Also, he can have some unique things, like not using guns or being able to disassemble guns for parts and upgrade himself. And many more ...

[@ilikemen996]

Marcus’ action skill should be that he turns into a bus and it starts playing Spanish music and he kills everyone

[@LFXGaming]

I love that part of borderlands 1 where Marcus says "its story time" and starts storying the fuck out of people

[@Rez_97]

I kind of feel like the final 4 borderlands playable characters, should be the most popular vault hunters from each game but made better. Salvador, moze, tannis/brick, and Athena. (Tannis would be the siren)

[@ThatgrimReaper7778]

markus' skill could be spawning the party bus

[@zun-viik]

6:24 don't think you've put enough thought Into this bc ... A psycho, a 5'4 bandit, a siren,a high school drop out, a robot assassin and an ex soldier A 7'3 bandit, a siren, a Truxican Wrestler and an ex soldier. 😮 Borderlands is all about the wild mix of the party and weapon parts, one of the worst Parts about Borderlands 3 is they gave us a bunch of characters we've already played as. Siren, ex soldier, ex assassin, hunter They still played differently, but my gods.

[@devastatheseeker9967]

Knowing it absolutely isn't a prequel (or if it is it is definitely way before the time of modern day characters) does this change your idea?

[@alch_emist]

I'm kinda disappointed Fiona is not on the list. In my opinion she SHOULD have a been a playble character : we witnessed her whole character arc in TFTB, her whole training with Athena in order to become a vault hunter ; the game even teased what her skills could be as a VH : -an elemental shot with her gun that create a elemental cloud or something -she said she's more of a "visual thinker" plus we got all those bullet time section in which you can aim morre precisely at the enemies, so maybe action skill that lets you deal more damage or critical hits (kinda like Fl4k) during a few seconds. -she's literally a scammer so why not make that the price of bullets and weapons are reduced for her, or maybe she could steal enemies' weapons after killing them idk Seriously I'm so disappointed they didn't even mentioned her in BL3. It would have been a logical thing to have her back after she literally said to Rhys that she feels hunting vault is made for her. Anyway great video !

[@pflynn12]

Great video they should be made playable in a tales of borderlands setting

[@pio0055]

Ya exactly a tales game that's based on characters we care about instead new characters that end up with crappy & disappointing stories

[@pf0013]

​@@pio0055👍👍👍👍👍

[@Marlfoxmokkan]

If theres supposed to be a big war incoming what about breaking up all existing characters into groups like a siren group, a soldier group, a wild card group ect ect and your active skill determines which character you play as? For example you could have Tina, Brick, Torgue, and krieg in a wildcard class share two or three trees all about melee explosions and survivability but have an additional tree pretaining to their personal active skill?

[@Marlfoxmokkan]

Also Torgues Active skill should be "Explosive Pec Pound" He rushed forward and chest bumps the nearest enemy dealing an aoe nuke and increases his own and allies damage with explosives that stacks every time he uses it (I imagine this would have a set amount of charges) but the stacks decay after a set amount of time without an explosion.

[@dustinotte3225]

I think a healthy mix could be Tina (and her dive into madness, after her Patents died), Torgue (on his way to the top of his company) moxxi (achieving her goals after running away from her Bandit clan). Torgue could be a factor in tinas upcoming as will moxxi be. Just look at her grown up in bl3. This would explain very much. Alternatively it could just be a sequel and the game writes itself. also someone New as a Wildcard. I am thinking of Steve as a Tank class for example. A simple Eyo and his positive attitude lets him live trough all those bullets. Just an idea of mine.

[@ollychapman9362]

Some ideas for skills: Tina gets to equip two grenade mods and throws both at once but only takes up one grenade, maybe her rocket ult rapid fires her grenade mod? Marcus gets the ability to swap weapon parts so you can get god roll items but it’s massively expensive so it’s not too OP. Rhys gets the Rhys ball from bl3 s as one of his abilities - pleasure sphere buffs teammates, death sphere for combat.

[@thepainkiller5527]

Ever since nomads were introduced(borderlands 2) and with Krieg already being a playable psycho for the player I've always wanted to have a playable nomad character as odd as it sounds but it would probably be funny because of their dialogue and stuff but not sure what kind of action skill a nomad vault hunter would have, maybe a shield bash or like a command based action skill that buffs him and all nearby allies(other vault hunters). One of his skill trees could be partially dedicated to self and team buffs(when co-op) and the other two for his action skill and the usual stuff. I don't know, just an odd thing I've always wanted but of course these other characters as playable characters aren't bad picks either. Would a playable nomad be a horrible choice though?

[@AxDenominal]

Marcus skill can be called “Make it rain” Marcus enter in a Gunseker mode, enemies kill drop more loot

[@devastatheseeker9967]

Honestly Fiona should be a playable character, not Rhys. She was being trained by Athena to be a vaulthunter and she has her elemental revolver as a possible skill

[@Nortun_Willy-cu5wg]

I honestly can kiiinda see Marcus' trees, I think it could possibly go something like: Competitive Capitalist; Marcus able to spend a sum of his money, to get a random weapon (based off of the concept in the video), the weapons have special and unique properties that can assist with different situations. Issue is, it is randomized. The Opportunist; Simple, the more money you have, the better. Maybe even luck based for the ability with some Coin flipping action. And if that's the case, it'd be most likely focused around pistols, specifically revolvers. The last one I don't really know the name of, but I think as a funny reference to how he runs over shit often in his bus, he could have a shoulder bash/charge as a special ability, as a shotgun-melee mix build.

[@NhBleker]

Playing as Moxxie would just be playing HDoom in Borderlands.

[@glassworks1214]

honestly id want to see Sasha from tales especially since i think her skill tree could be based around that device that saved her from when she like almost died in tales, like as you go on she's tweaked with it to be more a supportive item for her and her team mates

[@yoddetrs]

Marcus’ skill could be that the equipped gun becomes a turret. Torgues’ could be an explosive sniper/ missile strike. Tina’s could be placing detonators around the area.

[@MrNo1fan]

Angel could had transfer her spirit inside some computer before dying and rebuild a new cyborg body at her image. She would totally had hacker abilities taking control of robots and other machinery, triggering environmental traps also having EMP looking effects like making enemy guns/turrets ineffective for awhile forcing em to go melee.

[@markpalko1503]

Tiny tina has always been my favorite character in borderlands and I've always wanted to play as her

[@fishyboi2132]

I thought of a vault monster being a vault hunter. Though it would be hard depending what kind of class said vault monster would be? I could see this Vault Monster being a necromancer of some kind, making armies of former enemies now twisted and turned into creatures much like the monster.

[@THE1vbLLover69_]

So this gave me an idea, they should make a game called like "Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel[Squared]" With the subtitle, 'The Character's Aren't Cannon, But The Story Sure Is!" With the main line-up being Sledge (To be melee/wild card), their skill being focused on close up. Think maybe taking out his signature shotgun with unlimited ammo for a short time and melee becoming his hammer. Comes with three skill trees. One to focus on melee (Some examples; Melee becomes stronger than normal with how many enemies are nearby; optional on-command slam; gain kneepads if you go deep into the tree that allow you to go into a straight super sprint that deals big damage and knocks enemies out of the way, maybe a skill to complement that by giving you a war-cry that stuns enemies in a radius and reduces their accuracy for a few seconds; normal melee eventually becomes spiked knuckles and inflicts a debutf), another on shotguns specifically (Could be increases damage depending on how small the magazine is), and survivability (Inventing new stats to make you more tanky the more you delve into the tree, but if you invest in others the upsides diminish). Knoxx (To fill the robotics quirk role), the skill being something similar to Wendy's bear from Don't Starve, you call in a mech that starts off 'small' (Figuratively), comparable to a weak player - To make up for that there are two skill trees and you can only fully go one before being cut off early in the other. One to making the mech stronger, the other to making YOU the mech and giving you the bonuses the skill would normally give to the mech. The last one would be for multiplayer, being a commander (If you go first you get an increase in stats, possibly making team mates weaker for a time depening on how little you've delved into it). Steele (To be the siren), don't really have one for her. I do have a tree though. She could also hhave one for multiplayer, that being a coward; Depending on how far away she is from the enemy she could have increased damage and accuracy with SMGs, depending on how far behind her team is she becomes more fragile, also another skill making up for that by becoming faster, also depending on how far she is away from her team & enemies. For the last one, hear me out on this: Mr. Torgue with a DLC to swap to Tiny Tina (The teen in 3, remember none of these are cannon) That changes the appearance of the skill, and skill trees. But play the exact same since they're both specialized in explosives. The skill being that of explosions, duh! Maybe pull out a special gun just to shoot explosives, or a short time and grenades becoming super powerful. The VFX difference would be Torgue's explosives would be bigger, more and change color depending on how much (Think how fire changes depending on how hot it is), Tina's could be that of Rainbows with hints of blood here and there. One tree could be devoted wholly to singleplayer (Bonuses still work fully in multiplayer, but the point of the skill tree is for you to do the work) For Torgue, the theme could be how he knew the land to raise in power/Tina's could be how she became to be a good storyteller, and the get-up would be giving you extra random goodies for completing side quests, giving you slightly better stats on how much you've explored the map, and if you made good financial decisions The second skill tree could be upping the antics of their skills, the temporary bonus the skill activates passively sometimes by doing something but at greatly reduced effectiveness as to not make the skill pointless. The last one could be kind of like a PSA about mental health. They start sacrificing how good most of their stats are to make allies and the skill better. At least one unique DLC character and that would be Captain Scarlett. The premise for this game would be set before Borderlands 1, with the same aesthetic as it, but all the way across the world. It'd explore the more local side of the games. Starting off by helping a few towns here and there, eventually making yourself a name and going after bigger and bigger fish, to take on the Vault. That being, the original form of the monster from BL1. The twist of the game is, the story is real, but the a decent part of the main cast isn't. The characters you play as are actually just stand ins. The story is presented by the 4 actual new 'Vault Hunters', Sledge being a stand in for a psycho who got accidentally exposed to a scientists experiment rumaging about, making him slightly more intelligent and giving him significant strength. Knoxx would be a one of the first employees to a new, one-off corporation. Torgue, the same with Tina having her dialogue just be changed to have her more in tune to being a lonely girl. Steele would try and be the boss, sometimes suceeding. All of them would bicker in cutscenes and if played together in multiplayer, but the farther you get into the game they actually soften up for each other. Throughout the game, there are only ever hints that these aren't real. Radios can play some of the real people, some posters are clearly out of place and newspapers can be posted about what really happened. In the game, you do win against the Vault Being. But after beating it, a cutscene plays showing the real characters in a raggedy shack, barely alive, saddened that they actually didn't win, with writings on paper, and figures of who we played as (And teasers of the DLC characters) foreshadowing the events of the future. Idk this just popped into my head and I spent abt an hour writing this I'll come back another day to clean this up :P

[@ethbeatthem4836]

Likelihood of character we know becoming Vault Hunters becomes slim I say but there are a few story wise that can Work, least likely of the 3 I see most likely is Tina do to here being an important Quest giver and already had her deep dive into her character. But 2 characters who could become a Vault hunter are Captain Scarlet (Focus DLC character that we never got to know too much about yet know enough to enjoy her presence) and Sasha (We have her sister Fiona hunting for the Crystals that can bring people back to life but would Sasha join that or find her own adventure)

[@psychosparten049.esquire9]

Knox could literally be so much funnier if they revived him again to be a Vault Hunter. Considering his main running joke.

[@natakuu13]

Every game has an ex-soldier from a manufacturers army. We have had atlas, dahl, and vladof. Because of that i would like to see a - maliwan soldier (torgue, jakobs, hyperion dont have soldiers so maliwan i would assume to be the next) -Siren-only ever 6 in the universe at once. We have seen the powers of 5 of the 6. Steele was the only siren we never got to see her powers. Would be nice to have a character who inherited her powers as a playable. -bandit-each skill tree could be based off a bandit type we know of (rats able to steal money and loot. The more you steal the stronger you get, bruisers/goliaths bulky more tanky with more power for big guns with big magazines and also ability to berzerk. They would be like a combo of brick, sal, and krieg. They can do crazy melee brawling plus they gunzerk, plus a similar enrage(release the beast) form. nomads slower even more tanky than bruisers plus they have physical shield(imagine having a skill to strap up to 3 psycho midgets to the shield that take damage and when you use the shield action skill they get released. The more damage they take before being released the more damage speed and damage reduction they get while releeased.), finally marauders generally fast and dodgey with focus on guns. -eridian-now that we know so much about the eridians and the fact the watcher came to the group in TPS it would be sick to have an eridian vault hunter helping us.

For Hyperion we could play as a LoaderBot

18:56 Also he just deserves to retire, honestly. However, I would sell my soul for a playable Vault Hunter who's his and Wainwright's adopted child. Just imagine how wacky their fighting styles would be if you combined them somehow

[@LFXGaming]

I'd like to think thwy would be like an advanced version of nisha, given the borderlands 3 skill tree treatment

[@hallowfiended]

@@LFXGaming Well not quite, because I made an entire skilltree for a character like that and the similarity to Nisha is only really surface level

[@diaborodevil3161]

Idk I think in 4 Marcus should say “ah you know what I told you enough stories I think it’s finally time you got off your bum and went on your own journey now go explore the vaults” then we get a character creation screen

[@KIZZZZPlays]

Marcus could throw a wad of cash on the floor that distracts enemies or has traps in

[@graphkid]

Ya dude for rys he’s “technically” been in a game already as the main character so idk if he’d be coming back since now he’s a CEO and owner

[@Mikalwatchingyt]

Wym you can’t think of any skill for Marcus? Ammo drop baby, it’d let you play a lot more aggressive and with more high damage low ammo type weapons

[@tametalks6102]

Idk if you have already made a timeline vid, but your sense of humor and attention to detail plus the copious amount of lore that bl3 gave for history would make a great long big timeline

[@LFXGaming]

I Have Not, It's Been A Thought Before But Eruptionfang Has Already Made A Complete Timeline Video So I Thought That He'd Already Beaten Me To It.

[@epicoreo3332]

The villain of tiny tinas wonderland in his prime would be insane

[@judsongaiden9878]

0:39 Make Sir Hammerlock left-handed! You cowards! 8:17 Brand-based perks is/are a great idea! Cheeki breeki i v damke! 9:06 They should make it canon that he's a descendant of Sidorovich from the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series. 18:46 He should be left-handed, and he should have perks with Jakobs weapons like Nisha. 19:38 False. In BL1, in one of her Echo logs, she mentions shooting a bandit (in my headcanon, she used a BL1-era Dahl Swift Masher with barrel4, body5, and mat3/Desert material type). Plus, she's ex-Dahl, so she probably knows at least a few things about the use of guns. That doesn't mean her perks have to be Dahl-related. Note: The "Swift" prefix overrides the "Desert" prefix on BL1-era Dahl revolvers. 21:24 She'd definitely need some bionic enhancements. If she shoots right-handed, she'll need a bionic right eye like Wilhelm. If she prefers to aim with her organic left eye, then she'll need a bionic left hand. 22:52 "Twainwright"

[@stevedouglas5663]

What if Markus could switch and match the weapon to make a blend of weapons, kinda like the old weapon merge glitch this would be like a cap stone skill. But he in real time swaps the front, barrel, scope, ammunition type of one gun to make another effect.another skill could swap which ammo type your merge gun would use (lower damage faster firing SMG ammo of a rocket launcher, or a sniper bullet shotgun) The skill at first would work as him making temporary mods to the weapons he is holding for a limited time of the skill, say bigger mag, better accuracy, make add an element or an extra one for a deeper skill. He's a weapon modder so he can mod and enhance his one or maybe he'll be friendly and offer his temporary mods to teammates in another skill tree. Maybe with happens before his wife that made him fat so he can have movement skill tree since other gun manufacturers would want to kidnap him for his ideas and tech 10:03

[@fahadmutairi8704]

Why no steve the bandit 🤣

[@predict8276]

Got to have Steve the Bandit AYYYYYYE OHHHHHH

[@oldmanonyoutube]

Moxxi would be great but she would be OP. Her main skill would be health vampire based on how much damage she did and the name of it be some sexual innuendo. The skill would probably also get a bonus if the enemy was the male.

[@bigbenplaysgames]

Love your shit man my chat brought up your last video love the Bl4 being a prequel idea!

[@LFXGaming]

Ayee Thanks Man Appreciate It, Means A Lot :)

[@jmatthew40]

What about loreli, or clay from bl3

[@tracerichards3874]

Imagine if loader bot was the playable character, that would be sick

[@4ize23]

NEW CHARACTERS FOR VALUT HUNTERS. It makes no sense why people want characters we already know of in depth to play as. Give me new ppl

[@Dovah_Slayer]

I'd only every play Moxxi honestly she could also be a dlc character like Jack's body double (who isn't really a vault hunter either so they can completely ignore the reason WHY these characters are playable)

[@WingManFang1]

Commander Steele was not a Siren in the end, because all sirens have different Tattoos for their siren marks and Steel had the same tats as Lilith.

[@karlkoskie2891]

She was liliths original design, thats why she has the tatoos. Siren tattoos=siren

[@nemethmassimo6374]

Nah action skill for moxxxi would be seducing enemies to fight for her and if used on boss then it just does damage, kinda like maya's phaselock

[@psychosparten049.esquire9]

Captain Scarlet is completely a Vault Hunter kind of person

[@TheKaosKilla16]

My picks would be Tina Valentine from Wonderlands A grown up Pickle from TPS Mr.Torgue

[@ethostheallmighty8325]

A heyo for the fallen, my brothers... a heyo for the fallen.

[@specta7735]

another video from the legend. thanks for blessing my day

[@MrBarryyyy]

Think the game focusing on new vault hunters is a better overall format for the game, because it’s already easier to work off pre established characters like these for the story

[@renogameplay7191]

IF TORGUE BECOMES PLAYABLE NOT ONLY WOULD MY BULLETS EXPLODE BUT MY PANTS TOO!!!! *AWESOME GUITAR NOISES*

[@brohonestley_123]

previous games characters should be playable in mini stories like playing robin or Nightwing in Batman Arkham prove me wrong

[@BleakNote]

Where Fiona at, she had a cool concealed wrist pistol and had a theify-con artist background. She'd make a good vault hunter

[@LFXGaming]

Much like gearbox, I seemed to forget about fiona 😪

[@BleakNote]

@@LFXGaming Fair enough 😂 No one seems to remember her anyway, even Reece forgot about her and her sister real quick haha

[@zun-viik]

22:08 Very easily, you could make three whole skill trees for every single one of these characters if you put a little bit of thought into it I guarantee every single one of them has at least three hooks as a character that you could design things around you just don't find them interesting so you don't do it and then you blame the characters Scarlett is a boring-ass character. Wow, a pirate that betrays you. Crazy. Her boss fight is such ass you don't even fight her. Any idiot that wants to play as Mr torgue just needs to go play brick in the original Borderlands where you punch things explode them, what else would Mr torgue do than what brick already does?

[@Wildestleaf]

Marcus, Gains buff depending on which gun brands are in inventory,

[@smart_mushroom_]

Nah, I wanna play as face mcshooty or whatever his name is. He’d be like Krieg times 10😂
