Great video again bro. Loving all the awesome Remastered content!

Ki11er Six now that i saw you, what about you and joltz race around in the knoxx dlc?

[@bobadas5582]

I swear k6, you and joltz are the only borderlands creators i watch and you have such a bromance going on. I love it so much

[@keynanmartinez]

Borderlands 1 is a masterpiece classic.

[@SpaceCattttt]

This would've been good to know, 55 levels ago.

[@NinjaSushi2]

Lol

[@glitchy1281]

You should watch more of Joltzdudes bl1 runs, for the underdome ur better off having it scaled to level 13 though, but i think it automatically scales in the remastered edition though

[@AndrewCothill]

There's also the Hyperion Gift shop in the Claptrap DLC - it scales to your level and has around 12 red chests in there that respawn every restart - even if you hand in the quest! You do have to complete the DLC for it but it's well worth it for a continuous source of scaling loot!

[@nastyfirebird3494]

you can run over the assassins in knox's dlc in order to kill them they give decent xp you just have to be careful not to destroy your car in the process.

[@sushiroll7703]

I can't wait to get this tomorrow!!! I love watching you and K6 (mostly you, don't tell him that XD) and you have seriously hooked me! I used to play when Borderlands first came out, but I haven't played recently except when I had a PS4, but now I got an Xbox One and I can't wait to play this!

Love your channel! You’re easy to understand, get right too it, have fun, know the game, have the skills. I watched your Knoxx video if you get locked out of the armory. I CANT for the life of me get those grenade jumps.

[@safestewie3238]

Another thing is when you get to level 11 you can start the claptrap dlc and finish it and you can farm the gift shop which scales with you the whole game

[@XTreMeHunTer98]

Spent years doing this method but you literally showed me two chests I didn’t even know were there 😂

You can go ahead and do all of the robolution dlc once you're done in the others, and get the skill point upgrade, leave around level 18-20, and have access to the buffed gift shop for on-level equips.

[@Gw3nygwen]

At level ten you can goto the robolution dlc, and it’s pretty easy. Afterwards you get the loot room like you mentioned in an earlier video and you’re overleveled for everything else.

[@brandonstiwel1375]

You are seriously the best man, I can always count on you when I have questions about borderlands!!!

[@Yapping21108]

Thing is I just got bl1 thanks for the tips man!

[@trombonerist2856]

I'm going to add my two cents onto this video. Before I go do my Knoxx farming I will complete the power coupling quest so I can obtain "Blinding Nine Toes" for the bandits. Afterwards, I will do my normal Knoxx run (learned from watching enough of your playthroughs) and do all that jazz. I then go and complete the Zombie and Claptrap Robolution DLCs respectively so I can get the SDU's and be massively over leveled. I make sure to do the Claptrap Robolution one so I can have a farming spot already opened up for later. This will usually put me at level 17-18 and then I breeze through playthrough 1 doing minimum sidequests.

[@trombonerist2856]

I forgot to mention Blinding Nine Toes gets completed for me midway through the Claptrap Robolution dlc when the bandit traps and clap traps attack Tartarus Station.

[@trombonerist2856]

And lastly this is my favorite Borderlands game gameplay wise. Bl2 has my favorite story but i just cant get into the later game like I can with this.

[@roboticrhino2366]

This is really useful as even as someone who’s play borderlands on highest difficulties the first 15 levels of borderlands 1 is pretty damn tough

[@MilkIsMilkisMilk]

So, I've done this and got to level 7 or something, and then went to the zombie dlc and managed to finish it and go on the robolution dlc and finish it too, ended around level 20-22, so must say it's pretty efficient.

[@SandraAbell]

Great video Joltz very helpful love the content

[@danielcalabrese5769]

Thanks bro im.playing for the first time and watching some beginner guides and this has the most useful information buy far especially that far and the info about the bank, thanks mate

[@ZoSo_x]

Another good thing to know is once you get golden keys, you can farm the chest in fyrestone over and over until you get legendary weapons scaled to your level

[@CyborgNinja357]

Thank you so much for this video! It works like a charm! I'm level 26 and was looking for ways to farm money and this vid was the perfect solution for fast cash farming!

[@thebritishviking]

So inspired by your videos I decide to run the entire trilogy back to back in an SMG only siren run Saw this video randomly looking for another video. First chest nets me a Hellfire. Needless to say, Fuck yes.

[@Gael_the_Dread]

Thanks, Joltzbud. I'm back into Borderlands again, after 2 years of Elden Ring/the Dark Souls series, and am only really proficient in BL2/3. Only did one playthrough with Lilith years ago, (no dlc's) and wanna give all the other OG vault hunters a playthrough or 2. Time to catch up with your's, K6 and Mox's vids again! Lolol, fuck yeah. Great video, stay awesome.

The grenade bug. If you're going to buy the grenade SDU, make sure you've passed the "buy a grenade from Marcus vending machine" first. It you don't, it may bug grenades, making you unable to pass this mission.

I am not getting xp when I open the chests

[@jeremyhorn9193]

Been watching your videos and twitch stream for a little while now. I've been hooked on bl2 like a crack addict but I just got bl1 and playing it for the first time this week... I kind of went backwards in the series and I can't help but think 2 is way better than 3 but that could only be because I can play end game and not have to worry about refarm idk.. I so hype for the new DLC tho. Anyway, this video helped me immensely with starting out. Thank you

[@trombonerist2856]

I do this route with all my characters. I like to be insanely overpowered before I start my playthrough and I dont feel lile stopping to fo side missions until I hit Dahl Wastelands. To accomplish this I run through the Ned DLC at a moderate pace and then speed through the claptrap robolution dlc (mainly so I have somewhere to farm gear later on) and end up around level 18 or 19. I also do this so I can grab two of the three backpack sdus early because why not. I enjoy being overpowered early game because why not.

[@ptbunz2501]

Glad to see some love to BL1 😎

[@giusepperesponte8077]

The way I do it is this: I start the character, progress the story to the point Joltz specified, except I finish that shield vendor mission to get a shield so I can do more grenade jumps in t bone without downing myself. I go to t-bone, do the missions, jump the car off the top for airborne xp, collect all the chest guns, sell it all, then I go to the underdome and farm a level 7 explosive longbow from the vendor. After I have my longbow and shield, I go back to t-bone and start doing chest runs until I have all the SDU’s, making sure to bank anything useful I may find for my character. The reason I do it this way is because without the shield, you can only do one grenade jump which makes the whole farm go slower. With the shield, you can grenade jump twice in quick succession without downing yourself, without the shield, you can’t. With that being said, it’s definitely worth it to finish the shield mission and farm a level 7 longbow before you start really farming for the SDU’s.

[@rockero1313]

been doing the Knoxx dlc thing for newer characters since it originally came out for the original game on the 360

[@ouroboro7188]

Appreciate it Joltzdude your Awesome:D

[@VenomTheRealVenom]

Hey Joltz! A quick point about the Claptrap DLC. It's fully completable at the start of the game and if completed all the way through, it can take a level 8-9 character up to halfway through 17. I've found that unlocking the gift shop early comes in handy for later on down the track. Even MINAC is possible with a bit of effort. Also for the Knoxx DLC, running over the Lance Assassins in the Monster gives nearly 500 XP per assassin. While it may slow down the chest run and make you spend more time in the Knoxx DLC, it does allow for easier completion of Clappy DLC and I've found about 10-15 assassin kills put me at level 9 to do the Clappy DLC. Love the video still! I know that a lot of these tips you gave have helped me in my BL1 runs! Keep up the good work!

[@TheMrStern3]

If you're skilled/confident enough you can do robolution dlc straight after farming knoxx dlc and underdome for gear (i usually start it level 9 with almost 50%xp) and unlock its armory farm then head to zombie dlc and clear it too. Depending on my rng, im back to main story at level 24-27 full of legendaries/good stuff that keep me on until end of the main story/level 40+ without having to care about gear. Hardest part being the early robolutiom dlc cause you're underlevel and theres some massively overlevel enemies (with a decent sniper, some ammos and headshots you can still kill them)

[@Thatnerdyfella]

Always enjoy your content. Question though. When rinse and repeating the loot to sell part though, do you have just save and exit current game session or do you actually have to quit the entire game and go back into the game from Xbox/ps/steam Home Screen?

[@ZurrueOfficial]

There's more about challenges. You can grind some money in T-bone junktion, then you need to buy health kits in Arid Badlands (bcause it's cheap) and sell it until you reach 2,000 selled items for 20,000 xp from challenge :)

[@TheRapidVengeance]

Can u do anything like this in the other borderlands games ? i really like it things are allot smoother when u aint broke all the time

[@Z3R0NU11]

[@isaac80745]

Thanks because I hate repetitively farming the areas in the game currently and slowly leveling up. I'm already in level 20 but want to use the money method

[@jadentugaoen3407]

Great video, Joltz! Do you think you'd ever consider making a same sort of video for BL 2? I know there are a bunch of people like Vinylic Puma Gaming who do it already, but it would be interesting to see your view on it since you seem to have a different play style from Vinylic in BL 2. Have a great day!

[@joregensn1362]

You can do the third mission as Roland to Scorpio grenade jump to the activitable and then turn it in.

[@issacmccarthy5085]

Me and my friend just tried out BL remastered for the first time split screen and already found a few bugs or might be bugs? First, the game can't pause. the enemies still move around and attack when it should be paused or even when on the console home screen. Subtitles are really small, but only in splitscreen And some point the money counter just kept spinning forever and ever and ever, until the menu was opened Sometimes the XP message that shows you your xp reward for killing an enemy or completing a mission would stay on screen until a menu was opened. That bug where the "Hold x to use" message stays on screen These are what we have found and we are only up to the mine gate key

[@deathb4lies]

I would say that the pause issue is just bcause it's on split screen. When another player is logged in the ability to pause cuts out I guess. The others are minor bugs but the size of the font for subtitles is Bcause the screens are shared in split screen. Meaning the full screen is cut in half for 2 people obviously. Sorry for your luck with the pickup and xp bugs hopefully they will be fixed soon.
