Pearls in Borderlands 3?! - Mods make it possible!

[@KaptenInsano]

Hopefully this is something that borderlands 4 will have on launch or at least added in dlc. I would honestly love to see borderlands 4 be so complete and polished that no mods are ever needed.

[@BK20327]

on top of this id like borderlands 4 to put more time into content after the story, one big reason i dont play bl3 so much is because the story is very long and has an entire planet (eden 6) that was just unfun to run through. I wouldnt mind if gearboxes focus a tiny bit less time into story and more into replayability and content

[@DistinguishedGorilla]

@@BK20327 true

[@Max-dv1kq]

'added in a dlc' - just do a live service? or is that doomed right up by the community?

[@GamerLife-ww3bf]

I always loved pearls in BL2. I loved how special it felt getting one to world drop. Still remember my first Butcher that dropped while farming loot midgets. It carried me through a few OP levels until I ended up getting another way later that was OP8 (I never liked going to OP10 because it's unbalanced)

[@Movienut1992]

Tbh all of OP was unbalanced.

[@rougeassassin369]

The next BL game needs to have the endgame of bl2 and a little bl3 and bring back seraph and pearls. Mayhem mode scaling instead of the OP scaling

[@GamerLife-ww3bf]

@rougeassassin369 I can agree with that statement, I'd love both pearls and seraphs to make a return and definitely make the endgame a mixture of BL2 and BL3. I love Maliwan Takedown from 3 but the other takedown not so much. Mayhem over OP levels anyway of the week

That shield would be so good. Knife drain is all you need to get all the healing. And if you want a terror build it gives you a way to stack it. I wanna play around with this

That’s melee shield seemed gimicky, but interesting. Surprisingly my fav shield in the mod is the rough rider… may have been slightly over tuned XD

[@ahsatan6232]

kinda weird to have a specific pearl being in someones loot pool but it's cool to have them! I hope BL4 will have them again (and be actual good please i am begging you something this rare needs to shred)

[@NotoriouzJay]

Seeing this Mod it really makes you wonder why gearbox didn't add pearls to bl3, hopefully we get them back in bl4

[@captainspaulding5963]

Seeing as this mod only exists on PC, that should answer your question. The game with all DLC is already pushing 120g, any more information added would damn near require old gen players to have a console dedicated strictly to BL3 😂

[@caiooliveira4964]

Bl3 needs a mod to disable all of those invincible phases

[@Ki11ersix]

Every Borderlands game has bosses with immune phases. Otherwise we just melt everything.

[@caiooliveira4964]

@@Ki11ersix IK, is just that I wonder... Does mouthpiece, Warden and Agonizer need that many immune phases ? They just stand there doing God knows what. IMO, the best immune phases are the ones you can either do damage fast enough to never trigger, or the ones that have their own gimmicks to disable it, and not just waiting arround slacking for a couple seconds

[@Ki11ersix]

I agree 100%. Kastor in Wonderlands is one of my favorite bosses for that reason

[@ARCEUS493ZELDA]

all we need now is for K6 to get a pearl linoge while farming for a godroll XD

[@BigTallRedneck]

It was fun watching this live. God I hope BL4 has this built into vanilla.

[@Ki11ersix]

[@bodgey9233]

What I learned from this is that Gearbox lied when they said it was impossible to add pearls to borderlands 3 without getting rid of one of the other rarities…

[@Ki11ersix]

They didn’t lie. The problem is old gen consoles. Randy Pitchford all but said that they were to blame for holding back a lot of the things they COULD have done

[@jonathanbaker6268]

Does anybody else find it strange that pearls weren't added by devs at some point in bl3. A lot of peoples main criticism of bl3 was that legendaries drop far to often. Surely introducing pearls at a much lower drop rate would stop some of the criticism in terms of pearls being a more sought after rarity and dropping a rate closer to what we had in bl2.

[@Ki11ersix]

Old gen consoles ruined it. The game was already so massive that adding extra rarities would have been too much. Allegedly

[@jonathanbaker6268]

In absolute fairness I was here for the launch of bl3 and played split screen with my partner at the time and the game was awful performance wise on xbox one. We couldn't even open inventory screen without it crashing

[@Ki11ersix]

Oh yeah at launch BL3 was a mess.

[@lilpain1997]

Couldn't you use the guardian angel with the bone marrow and if it can crit you could crit swap to the unforgiven as well. Wonder if that would make it useable on bosses? Like FL4K fadeaway to get the crits constantly on it as well

[@lilpain1997]

Personally I played bl3 a ton when it came out,collected loot as I chased the level cap increases, re looting over and over,trying new builds etc, then one day some random person joined my public game and dropped a bunch of modded gear. Now I don’t even play the game or collect the loot that drops when I do play because it will never be as good as the modded gear. All that time grinding just for nothing.
