How Hard is it to Beat Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel With ONLY Legendaries?

You can grind three purple class mods and use moonstones to guarantee a legendary for the appropriate character. Usually turns out to be the "Celestial" mod. It's the only item type that will let you use moonstones to turn purples into legendaries.

[@LookIntoGaming]

Thank you for telling me! I have zero clue how all the grinder stuff works, I just know the basics.

[@UnemployedMuffin]

Legendary drops rates should've been increased in pre sequel,farming multiple times just to get nothing is lowkey disappointing

[@mehlessmidori602]

Some legendaries are relatively easier to find. But I know damn well I've beaten RK5 over three dozen times and never gotten a Sham. Best I usually get legendaries are from vendors but it's mostly grenade mods.

[@jayes13]

this is how it was for every borderlands game except 3 lol

[@LookIntoGaming]

Definitely. Despite getting way more legendaries that the BL2 run, most of them were from the grinder.

[@Siege924]

It was the same for every BL game except 3, but that stupid Grinder made it about 4 times worse. It felt like Destiny 1.0. You grind for hours (pull that slot lever) then you grind all your hard work (pull the lever again). The only thing more obnoxious would've been collecting a thousand gold egrams and turning them in to get nothing but blue at best. While we're here, WHY did UVHM still have whites dropping? I've played through your short, crappy campaign twice and had to listen to Pickle snort laugh too many times. The least you count do is ensure no more common rarity drops in the hardest difficulty.

[@jadedkratos5528]

I had very few issues farming for Legendaries in TPS, I mainly farmed Iwajira for his missile launchers and grinded them with the item i wanted to become legendary quality, when I didn't get what I wanted I Alt F4'd it and repeated the same grind over and over again. I farmed any boss that had a decent legendary loot pool, farmed the weapons vendors at Concordia and repeatedly farmed the red loot chests around the game.

[@greyklopstock7155]

Claptrap has some of my favorite details gameplay wise of any character in borderlands history. Like, incendiary damage does less damage to him cause he's made of metal, but corrosive damage hurts him like fire damage hurts flesh bssed vault hunters. And since he's a robot, he doesn't need oxygen, so he's the only character that can hit zero on their oxygen and not take damage.

[@LookIntoGaming]

I really wish I played more TPS and Claptrap, he is the most fun character in TPS, and his skill trees are all great. Not using oxygen is nice, but in my Legendary-only run I learnt that when you run out of oxygen on a normal character, you don't actually die, you just stay at 1hp.

[@yikelu]

I remember having trouble with EOS as Athena until I looked up that I should be using the Ceraunic Storm tree. That tree absolutely melts EOS, just absurd.

[@LookIntoGaming]

I was already planning to Athena for my full TPS run, but this just seals the deal. I've also never had the chance to use that tree, so I'm extremely interested in seeing what it can do.

[@yikelu]

@@LookIntoGaming it is so powerful. I think you'll really enjoy it. I played the shield tree at first because it seemed obvious but the storm tree is insane.

[@LookIntoGaming]

I was originally going to use the storm tree, but I didn't get any legendaries with the right elements early on, so that's why I went with the shield tree, and talking about it more makes me even more excited for the run!

[@ladyakkyn]

Fun fact: There are actually a TON of bugged drop sources. RK5 was supposed to drop the Invader, but it lacked the AI package to be able to drop from its uniques pool. But there are other interesting cases. Badass Boils were supposed to drop the Fibber, Badass Shugurraths were supposed to drop the Octo, the Lunestalker Moon Buggy (after doing the racing sidequest) was supposed to drop the Hammer Buster II and Maureen from "Wherefore Art Thou?" was ALSO supposed to drop the Supernova, which absolutely would've made the run easier. I've tried tinkering around with them before to try reenabling them, but I've only succeeded with the Invader. I dunno what it is about Badass Boils, but they REFUSE to cooperate. Another fun fact: while double-checking which shield Maureen's pool listed, I found out Nakayama has a pool set to drop the ZX1. Considering container pools use a different name format, this hints at a cut quest where either Nakayama gives you a random weapon or you (non-canonically) kill him.

[@LookIntoGaming]

It's a real shame to hear how many more weapons we could have had in TPS. It's also crazy to hear just how bad the code really is. I knew Borderlands code is spaghetti, but it just seems to get worse the more things I hear about it.

[@ladyakkyn]

@@LookIntoGaming(This is more than likely going to be VERY long and possibly in multiple comments. Beware of dragons.) It's really not so bad once you know what you're doing. I'm just a decent modder at best. I'm used to changing weapon stats and PRE-EXISTING loot pools, not fixing bugged ones. When it comes to modding BL2 and TPS, your average person is limited to editing pre-existing "Objects." Objects are materials already used by the game's code, such as equipment, skills, enemy stats and quest rewards. Each object details a specific part of the game's resources, such as a specific barrel part. There are other objects for things such as loot pools and even what parts a certain weapon can even spawn with. Heck, even some parts of enemy AI are detailed as objects. For reference, here's an Imgur post with some screenshots of the Object Explorer included with the Borderlands Community Mod Manager (BLCMM). It should give a better idea of how objects work. imgur.com/a/bigU9eH Now, you can't actually PERMANENTLY change objects. BL2/TPS modding essentially boils down to using the Unreal Engine's "set" command to overwrite the objects for the rest of the session. While you could type everything manually, it's much easier to make a .txt or .exe file that acts like a sequence of commands if you want to change more than one or two things. If you're testing a mod, you can apply new tweaks in-game by saving the changes and running the file again, but you can't return to vanilla without relaunching the game altogether. (Unless you have a mod that overwrites the entire game with its vanilla values, but legitimately who would do that.) BLCMM makes it even easier by creating a UI for mod-making. It also comes with the Object Editor so you can tell what's going on. It helps with formatting and can tell you when commands are invalid. You can set specific commands to work like hotfixes if need be (though I don't know WHEN you'd need to), and there are checkboxes that let you filter out specific changes, allowing Game Overhaul mods to be fully modular! As for actually MAKING mods, it's child's play to modify a piece of gear's stats. Just find where it already exists, change the number and run the command. If it isn't there by default, like giving the Emperor/Torrent bonus projectiles, you can rip that weapon attribute from something that DOES have it and add it to your command. Modifying pre-existing loot pools isn't that bad, either. I was able to make Boom Bewm drop the KerBlaster just by copying a two-drop Runnables pool and changing the referenced items to the Bonus Package and Kerblaster. And testing is easy since you can also modify the pool's drop chance. (Not the specific items though, as far as I know.) It's when you try making more complicated mods that things start to fall apart. My KerBlaster mod was part of a complete overhaul of it, turning it into a spinigun with with high damage and low fire rate. Changing the barrel's APPEARANCE wasn't that bad, and I was fine with stats, but making the thing spin? Rage-inducing. There are a TON of attributes for spinigun barrels that determine spin speed, spin duration, spin acceleration and so on. And they're technically made of programming BONES, meaning the spinning works more like an NPC moving their arm than a gun bobbing up and down when you shoot it. I spent DAYS trying to fix it and failed. A more experienced modder ended up telling me to send him the file so he could fix it for me.

[@ladyakkyn]

@@LookIntoGamingGoing back to actual loot pools... Typically, when an enemy doesn't have a dedicated loot pool (mainly rare unique enemies like Oscar and Spiderpants), you'd take an unused Runnable, such as enemies from the pre-order Circle of Slaughter DLC, and point that enemy's Runnable to it. This typically works, seeing as 90% of the Unofficial Community Patch's dedicated drop additions do some form of this. But I was making my OWN overhaul mod meant to suit my tastes, and I wanted to be a purist and correct the drops to begin with. So I fixed RK5's pool by checking how other people corrected it and set out to re-enable Badass Boils dropping the Fibber. I don't know what it is, though. They REFUSE to. They have their own Runnables pool, so I linked it back up in the same way other Runnables are, and I set the Fibber to be a guaranteed drop for testing purposes. But nothing. So I tried modifying the pool like how RK5 worked, but I couldn't find the correct Object. Eventually, I tried changing it entirely and gave them RK5's pool for testing. Nope. And finally, I tried giving RK5 the Badass Boil pool to see if IT would cooperate. Nothing. Considering the Unofficial Community Patch made Oscar drop the Reogenator without doing any of these shenanigans? I still have no clue what's going on. (Though I may have found the correct AI Behavior pool I need to modify while writing this.) So I decided to just give up, shelf it for now and use my time changing what I CAN do until I'm better at changing loot pools. I'm more than likely going to take a more UCP approach and add whatever OTHER unused drop sources exist to pools that already work. Badass Boils list the Fibber because of the whole Quarantine questline? How about I add it to the Invincible Empyrean Sentinel, then? They made it MORE than clear enough that fight was made up for drama. The Sham? RK5 works now, so it'd work well, though I'd really like to give it to that one scav from the treasure hunting sidequest who locked away all his treasures, being himself. The numerous grenade mods that can't drop? Give 'em to Felicity Rampant and make her a grenade mod boss! Though really, in some cases game balance may take priorty. Sure, Maureen was meant to drop the Supernova, but you unlock the Grinders mission after completing A New Direction. Could you imagine being able to farm her for Supernovas then immediately grind them for a Sham and blocking basically everything until you've reached Helios, if not FURTHER?

[@christophercaldwell1829]

iwajira got bugged to not drop his dedicated after they did the event to change him to that christmas boss, but he can still drop the hail from that guy so idk why they never fixed it

Trying to keep gear somewhat near level, especially class mods, was a challenge. I stuck to Claptrap, because his action skill can’t carry you through it, due to its randomness. What’s the point of sticking to using only white rarity weapons, if I use a Vaulthunter’s action skill to carry me, know what I mean?

[@LookIntoGaming]

I'm planning to do common weapons in all the borderlands games, but that's very far away. I would probably go Claptrap because I only have 1 run on him, and he is insanely fun.

[@awesomeguy6928]

I’m level 16 and somehow have already found 3 legendaries without intentionally farming for them

[@LookIntoGaming]

Then you're the luckiest TPS player I've ever seen. I don't think I've gotten more than 2 before level 16 in all of the runs in my life.

ngl, i will admit that im an adamant TPS hater but ngl, you're actually making me want to go back and play it, how dare you lol fr tho, if there was one thing that i could recommend for audio and what not is just a mic upgrade but thats just a small nitpick from me, you're doing incredibly, keep it up and i hope that you're having a great day.

[@LookIntoGaming]

I've always liked TSP, sure it's not as good as BL2, but I was glad just to have another Borderlands game. As for the audio, I improve it a bit with every video, and in this video I was testing some voice leveling stuff, so that's why it was a bit off.

I beat this game 10 levels too low and it took me 3 hours without going down a single time to beat the vault beast just cos I’m lazy and didn’t want to do side quests

[@LookIntoGaming]

I'm usually 1-2 levels below most bosses, but with all the farming I did, I was overleveled for most of the game.

[@mTcHlL_]

@@LookIntoGaming yeah legendarys are a pain to farm when they don’t drop

[@mTcHlL_]

@@LookIntoGaming have you ever thought of making a discord for your community

[@iclimbeverything2990]

BLTPS is a really good game... the only problem was they destroyed the drop chances and xp farming is really atrocious. I remember having to do a shit ton of side quests to not be like 6 levels underlevelled on the german jet fight in TVHM. No other borderlands game before or since has had that issue. It makes the community patch 10000% necessary, sadly

[@LookIntoGaming]

I really wish the drop chances were better, and I've never used mods before in a BL game, but for TPS, I am considering the community patch / something similar.

[@Harrythe1st]

Rule was no bar so no Excalibur, fact

[@LookIntoGaming]

True. It was also because I thought it was too easy for my first legendary, as farming is way more interesting.

[@orbitaldoor2722]

You should try a challenge run where your aloud too loot anything you want up too uvhm and have to only use the gear you have got form up to then for your last run, any game 😂

[@LookIntoGaming]

I've barely managed to beat UVHM normally... That would definitely be impossible for me, but another Borderlands CC might do it (and way better that I could).

[@vampyrusblack494]

you can have a Legendary Loadout in BL2 you just have to farm terra for the blood of terra relic.

[@vampyrusblack494]

terra can drop the Slayer class mods the blood the teeth the breath and the hide.

[@LookIntoGaming]

I completely forgot about this at the time of recording. I have never managed to kill Terramorphous, much less farm him. And the Blood of Terramorphous relic is bad compared to most other relics.

[@HaloDJumper]

I wonder if the chest just before leaving Helios (through the door in the moonshot room on the opposite wall from the elevator) can give legendaries. Idk if it can be farmed or if you can get legendaries from it at all. Never tested it and that'll be a painful grind.

[@LookIntoGaming]

It likely can, but to farm it, you have to run through the entire level from the start, so yeah, it would be insanely painful. It would be interesting to test with a mod that resets chests.

[@christianboi7690]

5:00 you just didn’t have an Oz-kit. It’s pretty easy with one.

Yes, and it's a guaranteed drop. However, it's only a rare gun, not a legendary.

None of the Darksiders drop anything outside of UCP, so that was probably a good idea

I've played one run as Claptrap, and he's really fun, and his skills aren't bad either, and his skills are extremely fun too! So, Even though he's a "joke" character, Claptrap is still very fun and powerful!

can flame knuckle really not drop a leggy on normal mode anymore? I know that I got a low level nukem from him once that I used for like 15-20 lvls

[@LookIntoGaming]

As far as I am aware, he can't drop the Nukem on a fresh run. I also believe this is due to rocket launchers not being available until lvl 10 (or around there) and you can't farm him either, making this even more annoying.

[@RealLunar]

He said class mod 3 times while talking about an oz kit
