Borderlands: Presequel - CRAZY XP & Badass Rank Farming Exploit - BL's "LOOT CAVE"

[@AurumKHK]

"No no no, slag him first!"

[@CubeDonut]

Just a hint. You can take this farming to a whole other level by doing it with a glitch weapon. More specifically, activating the glitch that automatically attempts to empty your entire magazine at a ridiculous rate but regaining ammo on kills. 100% hands free till your pc/console crashes from the map filling with corpses/loot, as long you use something with a large enough magazine to act as a buffer.

[@gsmbach6836]

Turn off gore and bodies won't stack up

[@BoondockDevil]

There are A LOT of missions like this in BL:TPS, where you need to kill enemies in a specific way or gather something from them. If you don't do it the way it's intended, you get infinite spawns.

[@MrMojooRisin]

The way you say badass is the most badass way to say badass.

[@m-squares7387]

MrMojooRisin SOEM MUCH BADASSESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[@chavilorenzo4999]

Every time I see borderlands videos I just think. Too bad Yote isn't here for this.

[@TerraMaledicta]

...what happened to him?

[@FlintBits]

Isaac Clarke Died in a car crash.

[@TerraMaledicta]

....don't you fuck with me now, is it true?

[@MrDarrenBoy6]

Isaac Clarke He was drunk and tried to beat a train, Google it

[@TerraMaledicta]

....damn. He was one hell of a commentator. RIP

[@thewaynedizzle]

I found one, in sidequest: home delivery when it says capture 2 frozen threshers don't capture them just kill them and they will respawn until you finish the quest.

[@ZiggyDGaming]

thewaynedizzle Thanks for the tip! Ill check it out!

[@iiWearFlipFlops]

Where is the side quest located

[@MsToshi1990]

iiWearFlipFlops google the quest he mentioned?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

iiWearFlipFlops South West of Vorago Solitude - I think you need to complete the story quests first.

[@TheBradboy2010]

"No mate, no no no nooo, dont kill the little blighters"

[@TheAmazingSW]

Lol just mute the tv

[@yinyangmemory]

No no no, slag him first!

[@blacklotuslv]

If only i had an infinity gun in this game... that shit is too OP in BL2

[@abdulazizalsaif1937]

Naaah the infinity was a shitty pistol But there was youtuber Called MAK that make a build with Zer0 called the ( for ever alone ) And that make that shitty pistol good I know that alot people do it in there own with out MAK video but its the same shitt the same build was specific soo MAK was the first kn youtube SOOOO YAAAH infinty is good

[@wpease7]

Abdulaziz Al Saif He means for farming. You can just put tape or something holding down the fire button and you can just leave the game to farm itself.

[@frumpy4]

Will Pease you could do that in bl2 with rakks in the place where you fight the last boss. they spawn infinitely (heh) and if you could find where they spawn, you can tape it down.

[@jprice_]

frumpy4 Also you could do that when Marcus was teaching you about elemental damage :3

[@corvax8644]

Use the free shot doppelgänger build

[@blazedgamingkr]

Still works in 2021 👍

[@silasfenton9904]

If you use infinite wrist laser glitch while using company man. Switch from vladoff wep to the lady fist you instantly kill around 7 per second

[@silasfenton9904]

You can also switch from a vladof item and use the hiperion company skill for a lot of bonus crit damage if you use all 8 items as hyperion items. This kills around 12 per second

[@silasfenton9904]

Warning. If you leave gore on you will crash your game after around 6 to 10 minutes and you will have to reset the game

[@RohanSA]

Lol, Flesh Stick farming has returned!

[@lilturk726]

I did this on my first run through of the game at level 28, and the enemies were giving between 380ish and 500ish XP. I was able to get from level 28 to 29, with Wilhelm, in about 8 minutes.

[@Tom-wl7sm]

Lmao

[@thevlaka]

Difference between Destiny's loot cave and this is that you needed to do the crappy loot cave in Destiny to get better gear than what was dropping from strikes/bosses/dungeons etc >.

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Yah, and this one doesn't really give too much actual loot. It's more XP and badass really.

[@NightfallGemini]

ZiggyD Gaming Depending on how far you can farm this for ranks, it could be a great way to take the edge off farming for Excalibastard's requirement.

[@sumireravenclaw8034]

pretty sure this *loot cave* has nothing to do with destinys loot cave lol..btps was pretty much already done at tht time lol so this *loot cave* was most likely finished by that time of destinys loot cave

[@thevlaka]

Mad Moxxi i don't think you understood the reference or context.

[@rdu239]

Pre sequel has absurd exp scaling, as the exp from mobs will dramatically decrease when you hit level 51 and level 61. To save your sanity, keep on doing the "Welcome to Helios" the very first story mission of the game, it will fill 2 bars of exp bar. Keep on resetting UVHM, this is bareably much faster than the guardian hunter mission

[@NaeveSnowsTavern]

Question; don't you need to beat the game twice to unlock UVHM?

[@Jxnathanirdk]

​@@NaeveSnowsTavernI think you need to beat the game, then reach level 50. I know this is kinda late hopes this helps someone (:

[@Grubleafeater]

I would like to note that if you find a Hyperion glitch weapon with Loop(one of the types that fire 100% automatically) you can fully automate this simply by setting aim toggle on, aiming, then clicking, provided that Loop is active.

[@Grubleafeater]

Oh, and Moonstones and Blue+ loot don't despawn, apparently.

[@tukmantur]

which weapon do you use in the vid? I mean the one @0:01

[@gruffkibbles8995]

Let the bodies hit the floor Let the bodies hit the floor Let the bodies hit the floor Let the bodies hit the *tis tis* FLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRR

[@corvax8644]

This plus doppelgänger w/ absolute advantage skill PLUS a yellow glitch automatic weapon = auto farming literally infinitely. I’ve ran this setup about two hours straight with the gun not even having to reload once

[@R.O.U.S]

You can do it with any weapon w/doppelganger AA build

[@R.O.U.S]

I use a legendary Torrent smg

[@zeophen]

On True Vault Hunter mode, lvl 44. The other two quests in this area were available, but this one is either gone or isn't available yet. Went on to the next boss to make sure I didnt have to be introduced to the guardians, no change. Maybe disabled til hotfix?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

zeophen Nah I dont think so, you might have to beat that playthrough to unlock it? Obv my normal playthrough was already complete. I'll test in TVHM later

[@CrasyFingers]

i think you can only unlock it later, he said around level 26-27 in normal mode

[@CrasyFingers]

oops, lol someone already answered, my connection must have been lagging :D

[@zeophen]

ZiggyD Gaming I hadn't realized on my previous playthoughs that it was only available after beating the game. Unfortunately the grenade is a lvl 50 for TVHM, so it will be no good for leveling, but I did kill 500-600 in a couple minutes. On a side note, just wait til you try out that laser build you were looking into with the end game gun Handsome Jack gives you. At lvl 48 you should be able to kill IwaJira before he takes 2 steps out of the lava.

[@BoondockDevil]

ZiggyD Gaming Once you beat the final story mission, the Guardian Hunter mission unlocks.

[@Firef1end]

Can't seem to see the quest in game, the exclamation mark hasn't appeared on my map! Anyone know why?

[@eps1lon769]

such farming spots are still in bl2 so i dont expect them to fix it. as long as those spots dont spawn badasses and upwards i think its totally legit. especially if you are going to farm prestige in the future

[@satanasteguarda]

Oh god, I wish I had never seen this video, now I'll be tempted to do it.

[@jamesyander392]

like what an enemy limit for the mission or time limit? they will just restart the mission or game at the right time. it is pandora's box (sorry gamers this is mythical) once released it is too late to stop or at least fully

[@orehnortled]

Would this be a good way to power level a second character? Thanks for the videos!

[@ZiggyDGaming]

orehnortled If you have a character that has this quest on both normal and TVHM then you could probably boost a second character using it, yeah.

[@josepholvera2442]

Sure if you get your secondary character to be split screened with primary character doing the mission/ killing.Unless you pc then they both need to have it unlocked to do it.

[@walterhernandez9037]

you can do the same with jacks merger skill glitch, which still works as of August 22, 2015.

[@sethjolitz7757]

I just discovered this on my own, using a glitched weapon (with continuous firing active and free auto reload with every kill), plugged my controller into my xboxoneX so it does not sleep. Let's see what I get when I wake up. I already did it for 3 continuous hours and got 300 moonstones, 200k cash, and a legendary weapon.

[@tomstallworthy3660]

200k😂 I got like 10 mil in like 30 mins

[@sethjolitz7757]

@@tomstallworthy3660 I'm not max level is why

[@tomstallworthy3660]

Seth Jolitz ah it’s pointless then cuz ull want to be farming bosses for gear to do tvhm or ull be doing clap dlc.

[@sethjolitz7757]

@@tomstallworthy3660 I was merely testing to see the possibility of it though.

[@sexualtoast9896]

A year later and it's still not fixed lol

[@iraimen]

Can't fix it or else the jest will have to go

[@spicyananaspizza]

It still works, but the loot is not great. That's the best they could nerf it, if they even did.

[@TheAmazingSW]

It cant be fixed it's attached to the mission. It's still in the game. I've farmed this for weeks on end for moonstone and bad ass ranks

[@bigjuulcat1911]

Still works 3 years later

[@chrismeyers5963]

well ziggy, he does say you can kill them as many times as you like, so i dont see how this would constitute it as broken or in needing of patching, i think it was meant to be like that personally

[@Kronuu]

I just did this on Wilhelm and with the right spec you can keep your bots in the air infinitely and the attack bot does so much damage. you can just afk and earn super XP

[@gruffkibbles8995]

Winston Walker can you please explain as I want to try that

[@jayscoolvideosa]

They put this on purpose because it literally mentions this exploit in the text

[@DarkEgg11]

OMG! gotta buy this for loot caves! I am so addicted to them!

[@gruffkibbles8995]

Like the target area in bl2 with the missions active but more space and less Marcus

[@391C]

Ever thought that the developers wanted that to be farmed? only by those who can read, its says it in the quest..

[@grenwal441]

Its basically a pokemon reference mission as well lol, having to catch a guardian using a digitizing net ball? Derp XD

[@PKing90]

2024 still works 💪

[@CrasyFingers]

do you have any ideas on how to farm xp around level 45? the best thing i could find was 2 aliens to the left at the start of vorago solitude(just east of the fast travel), it takes like 30 seconds to walk to them and kill em and save & quit and they give like 700-1000 xp each

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Ah that's pretty slow don't do that. Heh. I'm guessing you cannot get this quest yet? If so you could try and finish the story run and then do it. Otherwise run one of the recent bosses you have killed. I'm 44 doing the STALKER boss atm in research lab.

[@CrasyFingers]

ZiggyD Gaming thanks for the quick reply! :D yea i'm a little under leveled right now, last story mission was 45 recommended and i was 44, and this one i'm 45 and it's 48 recommended, i try to do the story mission and it's way too long to kill stuff and they give you like 500-800xp. i'll give this stalker boss thing a try, is it a monster that keeps spawning or a mission? any pointers? lol can't remember if i did that boss

[@CrasyFingers]

ZiggyD Gaming and you mean "research development" right?

[@ZiggyDGaming]

Olivier Hache Yeah R&D. It was part of the main questline, not sure how far it scales up, might not be enough XP for you. You might need to find something similar a little later.

[@CrasyFingers]

***** it's not just me eh? i thought i might be sleep deprived or something but not too long ago i did 1-50 gunzerker and mech in borderlands 2 and i really don't remember being so under leveled and having to farm so much xp all the time

[@CaptainSperklez]

I did This method but I used the gun you get for the mission these bot its in vorago solitude aswell the Toby van Adobe one

[@shishasho33]

i have a problem , in vault hunter mode, i'm lvl 45 and finish the story, and i don't have the TP to Verago. do i have something to do ?

[@justin3255]

I don't know if I'm I'm right or not, but I don't verago has a fast travel point.

[@MsToshi1990]

This is crazy insane! I have to try that when I reach that area :D EDIT: Maybe the developers haven't really thought of this. They just programmed the quest as It should be done like: Just capture the Guardian with the grenade thing, and didnt think of that normal weapon attacks will trigger it to respawn all the time. I expect this to be fixed as well though. Would be crazy if not.

[@RohanSA]

Funny thing is, the exact same problem was patched out of Borderlands 2 (Flesh Stick) it is amusing that literally the exact same problem has been allowed again.

[@BoondockDevil]

Sterwin literally tells you "you may kill as many as you want, but you need to use the [pokeball] to capture them"

[@MsToshi1990]

BoondockDevil True. Maybe it IS on purpose. Who knows. Just seems so extremely unlikely lol.

[@MsToshi1990]

***** Yeah I know :D Its good for loot though!

[@Whazup4341]

***** Grinder baby, just fill up an inventory of whites and start grinding!

[@kieranskool]

Didn't work for me as a level 21 - he say's "come back later"

[@carolynrafferty1711]

There's a better way to do it. You need to be the Doppelganger with the skill "merger" and do the glitch then just point the lasers at what you want to kill and go afk

[@R.O.U.S]

the better alternate is to use absolute advantage on the doppelganger to get free shots, because the infinite merger glitch is kinda hard to do

[@ReflectionOfPerfection]

So wait, you have to be level 50 just to get this mission? What's the point of farming XP at that juncture?

[@ImJonOTI]

You don't have to be level 50 to do this he said you have to be 26 or 27.

[@fabienfernandez8113]

i finished the game the first time and did this quest before finding out about the glitch if you do it again at the TVHM you need to be level 50 to equip the grenade to go further in the quest. so yea you can do the quest from like 28-33ish (before crazy xp penalty) or from 50 onwards

[@chrismeyers5963]

cuz if you want to power level any of your other characters, you can split screen it with a 2nd controller

[@ReflectionOfPerfection]

People should play this game for fun. Standing at an ammo vendor while the host is raping the shit out of guardians isn't fun. Whenever I play this game I look at my friends list and see level 40 - 50's on very early missions. I just started a new Athena and I'm having an great time :D

[@neatnights]

Well the level 40-50's are probably on True Vault Hunter Mode.

[@mrflavours4918]

Level 50 On the first mission Wonder how they levelled up prox that many times.

[@neatnights]

MrFlavours They grinded? You can't get this mission until around end game, so they would be around level 30-ish. Seeing as they are probably trying to get all the quest rewards to be level 50 (assuming this game also does that), it's quite normal for that to happen. They want to min-max builds by getting max level uniques. If they grinded on a friend's game to get to that level for the first time they play, they're probably not playing through the story. They're most likely doing some other shenanigans which could also produce fun. I don't see what irks you here.

[@mrflavours4918]

Your not reading what I'm saying. I'm saying all my friends have been power leveled by other people. I just don't see what's so fun about it.
