My favorite thing to tell people is that even if you turn all your sound options to 0. The Bane still makes it's sound. And that's the real curse.

there’s a little bug, where if you equip the Bane, then spam-switch between the Bane and another gun (I like to keep SMGs on the right on d-pad, then switch to a pistol down on the d-pad) quickly, you’ll hear the Bane’s voicelines on other guns I used to randomly join public games, and do exactly that, often

[@rk100_official]

There is a shield that you can get that also slows down your movement speed. Idk what it's called but I picked it up in the mercenary day headhunter pack. You should have done that shield and the bane together!

[@LilGasmask]

Yeah that’s the Fabled Tortoise Shield. I tested it out and it looks like if your holding the bane your movement speed will always be Bane speed. I tried to use Maya’s fleet skill that gives a speed boost too but The Bane just overrides any movement speed changes. I would have totally did that though if it worked!

@@LilGasmask Wow so not only did they make it so you can't turn off the stupid screaming without killing the games volume but took away what would make it useable. I have no words i know the bain is supposed to be bad but the quest they make you do to get it is way to long for this piece of work.

I had alot of issues with the Bloodwing fight when I was going through UVHM again recently, then I found out that if you crouch behind the boxes on the left side of the arena(close to where you jump down), you can completely negate her "divebomb" attacks. Don't know what to do when she drops projectiles in your bane run though.. :/ But yeah, that fight's bs. At least tell the player they can hide behind the containers to avoid damage. Amazing dedication. Well done.
