Intro Script
To the town of agua fria rode a stronger one fine day, hardly spoke to folks around him didn’t have to much to say, no one dared to ask his business, no one dared to make a slip, the stranger there among them tried to beat borderlands 3 with only the big iron on his hip
The rules are simple
Only Big Irons for weapons (jakobs revolvers)
ONLY hip firing no aiming down sights
Guardian rank is off because it has some super broken perks
Cars, action skill, melee, barrels all of that stuff is fine too
I didn’t use any nades but that wasn’t a real rule
One small problem though. Borderlands 3 is too easy especially with how good the revolvers in this game are so i’m running a 4 person scaling mod. It essentially makes the enemies scale as if you were playing the game with friends, which I know you haven’t. So to simplify for you the enemies have more health and do more damage
I played flak for this video mainly for fade away and also the jabber pet who uses a revolver so he counts
The first weapon the game gives you isn’t a revolver so I unequipped it. but the second gun is so with that I killed the bandits and shiv and got started on pandora proper

THE MOD ON AND MOD OFF FOR THE SCALING MOD IS BACKWARDS WHOOPS

[@USS_Liberty_never_forget]

Ya blew it?

[@Starcalledd]

[@ACE_16_O_8]

Bro I wanna play borderlands 2 so bad

Lorelei top 5 new bl3 character ( out of me being patriotic )

[@someguywithnochallenger8178]

Oooo ooo ooo

[@jacobmarsh2072]

"First time in history anyone has wanted to use the Flood" That hurt my soul, it's like my favorite revolver

[@garth2k3]

quickshot is better only goes full auto when it hits... getting a good one from arms race though is tricky.

[@incohesiveglue]

This video is making me miss MittenSquad 🥺

[@SoloChimera34]

It's mot the same but check nerbit he does almost exclusively fallout challenge runs he's great

[@deaththefox2125]

Ah yes, playing with the 4 person scaling Meanwhile on screen: Mod On: doing more damage Mod Off: dealing less damage

[@eddie_the_underlord_cow3459]

I was about to point that out too

[@alteredfried]

IT'S BACKWARDS MY BAD

[@RichRaptorVr]

Bro is so unhinged in this video. More than he usually is I mean.

[@Gandalf.]

I really wish gearbox wouldn't have made BL3 with toddler difficulty. The fact that you need a 4 player scaling mod to make this challenge into something other than a walk in the park says enough.

[@cjyoung5635]

And then you had people crying mayhem 3 was too hard when the only modifier that really screwed you over was the 15% bullet reflect. Annexed dictator makes that like 180% per shot. Just saying there's literally both sides to this but nobody would play the bandit slaughter on mayhem 3 back then just saying.

[@muncheez7131]

I see Anything Borderlands related & I click… Simple. Borderlands 2 kept me company thru the most terrifying moment of my life. Was my only friend that kept the darkness at bay. I love that game ❤

[@yanec2501]

Remember people. This guy had to play Borderlands 3 for our entertainment so give him a like for the mental torture he put himself through 🙏

[@michaelwhalen9084]

fallout new vegas reference 😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱

[@demorunnertimmedrt4432]

Challenge recommendation: borderlands the pre sequel with only transformers weapons (plasma cannon, cosmic rust cannon, ion blaster, fusion cannon, null rays, and anything from the high moon games.)

[@gamingdoge1451]

the mission that appears on eden6 in floodmoor basin when you drop down from the drop pod area the gives you a masher upon completion.

[@Outlaw88_pf]

BIG IRON

[@lmoa9503]

Nostalgia. Immediately got the reference and recalled listening to it with my grandad

[@kusterdman]

Absolutely wonderful song, and an even better channel

[@TheEinator_]

These are fire marty Robbins would be proud 👍

[@AhRisla]

I fuckin love this game

[@duncanmartin9120]

The real Katagawa Jr. In the fight doesn't scale with multiplayer or mayhem levels, so that's why he actually took good damage.

[@jimic388]

The brainrot is real, i thought he'd say bl4 needs a fentanyl minigame after 3:53

[@phi_greek]

I need to ask, PLEASE DO THIS IN TPS IT HAS NISHA A LITERAL RANGER LAW BRINGER PLEASE ITS PERFECT AND I LOVE THE BIG IRON SERIES

[@alteredfried]

I need to finish my first playthrough of tps first lol

[@phi_greek]

@@alteredfried oooo good luck, it’s really underrated and over hated, I did my first playthrough as Timothy and it was a blast

[@skoll2712]

I am actually shocked that you don't have at least 100k subscribers, this is some serious gourmet Borderlands content. Keep up the good work man, you've just got a new subscriber.

[@Jonny.Jr.Jay.Junior]

I miss you Paul from Mitten Squad 🥺

[@thormckinley1264]

I did a pearls only challenge on maya inspired by your western Zer0 it was a fun experience for me.

[@paperjam1451]

Roboquest mentioned +respect

[@Jack-HYPERIONCEO]

9/10 video, -1 point just because of the appearance of ava.

[@piratier4246]

If you have an itchy trigger finger you can fan fire any jakobs gun

[@FemSchizo]

good video

[@therealkid5002]

Try can you beat borderlands the Pre-Sequel with the Big Iron on your Hip

[@pokemonmasterdevillan4999]

I love the flood

[@Doragonkyasuta]

Are the only revolvers allowed Jakobs? Or are Torgue allowed? I personally believe they should be because they're still revolvers

[@austinchittam2373]

❤the video!

[@danmorgan6097]

Need to get the Trick shot

[@Modeus.]

The scaling mod makes BL3 difficult enough to be viable for challenge runs, as stupid as that sounds ooc. as for Buttstallion Milk, I think a fair rule would be that you're only allowed to use it once, preferably at the early game when you have nothing against 4-man scaling enemies, or you could use it later on to quickly farm everything you need for a boss. the possibilities are endless.

[@topec1263]

Altered? More like druggered. Fent is for your dents. Now pay your rent for that tent.

[@krypted_96]

It'd be hilarious if it wasn't so horrible that the borderlands series tried to move away from the derogatory term "midget" and so they came up with an even more derogatory term

[@Xnoob666]

excuse me, why in oblivion is a gun floating in the background at 0:28 and you let it do it like it was nothing ?

[@alexroch6609]

Anyone knows what's his skin is??

[@mrfigmor4447]

Why not play on mayhem 11 in uvhm if it’s too easy wouldn’t that also be the same

[@glista8598]

okay great vid BUT DID YOU JUST TALK SHIT ABOUT THE FLOOD

[@Danknic1234]

Wait couldn't you of used torgue weapons since they're also revolvers

[@gone5821]

Just clicked for the reference

[@goldstorm1925]

14:01

[@jamescarrotcsl8]

the unforgiven in bl3 is only good if you use launchers like the hive and hold it while the launcher does damage unfortunately but the guardian angel is better 99% of the time

[@aaron1641]

yooo whats jotaro doing there?!?!?

[@pdubowner]

HOW DO YOU KNOW I HAVEN'T PLAYED WITH FRIENDS?!

[@eddie_the_underlord_cow3459]

Even with a 4 person scaling mod, BL3's just too easy still

[@tofuthetapir7214]

What is buttstallion milk and how do I get it

[@sametekiz3709]

1:48 yep that's why bl3 sucks.

[@chrislarson9504]

ah yes becuase its fun having to do 100 runs of NOTHING and on the 100th run just to get my first fast ball which took more than an hours to farm which is a complete good use of my time

[@jacobsmith4056]

Why so many legendarys, bud 🤨

[@JangoLibre]

Borderlands 3 moment

[@AhRisla]

​@@JangoLibreonly with buttstalion milk let's be honest

[@neophyteredglare961]

​​@@AhRisla i played bl3 earlier this year and its genuinely almost that easy to get legendaries imo, i got them left and right

[@chrislarson9504]

i mean its better than doing 100 runs just to get a SINGLE fastball in bl2 its better than doing 50 runs to get a a single unkempt harold

[@wqlfey]

I love the flood
