Advice on my krieg build

Borderlands 2 Krieg the Psycho

All of K’s melee bonuses are addative, meaning you just add them up, so 500(BxR)+100(RtB)+250(StV) and so on. Because of this, you get dimnishing returns as you get a higher bonus. An example:

Say my melee attack does 100 damage
with no other bonuses I add 100% damage (+1.00 multiplier)
100*(1+1.00)=200
notice that this is a true 100% damage bonus:
200/100=2
now suppose that already have a 500% damge bonus
100*(1+5.00)=600
now I add my 100% damage
100*(1+5.00+1.00)=700
notice that while I still got the same amount of damage (700-600=100)
however, my overall damage increase is notably diminished:
700/600=1.17

@maxageddon
From @Wingsday 's post you can see that while the damage mod from PiP is additive the negative critical modifier applies to the whole melee damage (including bonuses from RtB, StV, EtR, etc.).

Thanks for all the help.

#51

Thank you @Maveco and @Wingsday, much appreciated

I’m glad you understand Krieg well too. Nea and Evo don’t regen health when they are down, so thats fine, they are usable.

#53

I wish the dark souls community was as nice and helpful as you guys.

#54

When you don’t have a FoTFH or a RR, an adaptive does a great job.

#55

He mentioned he can’t use a RR. FoTF is a piece of trash.

#56

I am running a fotfh atm its not the best but it works.
Also the evo is an adaptive shield correct if so where do I farm/ buy it I know its a serph

Edit: I read the posts above I knew it was an adaptive shield I just need to know were to get one

#57

are you on steam?
i have seraph crystal and i can get you one

#58

#59

I just need to know what vendor sells it

#60

You can only buy it at normal and tvhm, at uvhm it’s a drop from hyperious if I recall correctly.

Ahh I see guess I better man up and learn to kill him

#62

Or you could just add B0re to the equation and divide Hyperious by Zer0.

#63

To bad my zero was power leveled to 72 and is only on like the bunker on normal mode

#64

You are going to have a hell of a time in UVHM if that’s the case.

#65

Oh well I can always use my commando and siren combo with a friend

#66

If your friend has the Hyperius fight available on UVHM You can still join with your Zer0 and pick up the Crystals together until you find your drop. You’ll also be able to farm things like the Norfleet.

I could play split screen with my zero who has it unlocked and have my zero as player 2 and use him also. Right?
Edit: the only characters who don’t have it are my zero and Gaige.
