been playing for about 10 minutes. Just found a Fabled Tortoise in a locker.

Yeah, seems like a lot of people donāt understand how RNG works and just love to cry because they didnāt get their desired drop in 5 minutes. āI killed Doc Mercy 4 times and didnāt get an Infinity! Drop rates are still the same and this game sucks and I hate Gearbox!!ā
If the game gets you that upset, then donāt play it? Itās like those people that play CoD and spend the entire time raging and cursingā¦ games should be fun and relaxing. If a game makes you so angry, it may just not be the game for you. And thatās okay.

Iāve seen it fly aaaaaaaaaall the way into the lava.
Pretty absurd
Worst Shield IMO but still VERY lucky. That said, Idk if the thing updated on mine could never get anything. xD
I am mistaken then XD Guess I was either lucky Or stupidly unlucky. XD
did you still get it you can walk on the lava but be quick it kills you quick jump and use your oz jumps should be fine. seams to me bl2 has been kinder to me I am playing a new maya so that might be the reason why I have 6 lower tvhm drops already compared to one in tps a 68 oz kit from the destroyer no real improvement in chest in tps
lol, yeah. I didnāt pick it up.
Nah, I didnāt even try, thought I couldnāt reach it. It may have been possible but at that time I thought it was beyond the invisible barrier but itās still really hard to judge the exact location of it all alone.
Has any tried farming the cobra or knows if the Cobras drop rate has also increased? Thanks
Blue probably left it there because he/she/it didnāt like it 
Finished the Tina DLC story last night and got both a fireball and a fire storm from the last badass mage before the teleport pads, but nothing else. (Well, the H.S. dropped a purple head, but I already had it) Didnāt get to play for very long though; hopefully will get a better run in on the weekend.
The second iteration sucked, didnāt get to fill out the survey, but IT SUCKED. This one is great again, like the first one. Canāt tell which one is higher, havenāt been able to put as much time into farming to get a decent sample size. Will do so eventually. Just saying itās great right now.

I starten a New Salvador. Im lvl 13 and got a Bonus Package and a Intense Unkempt Harold. Pretty much easy Mode. I got a Rustlers Coach Gun from Oney, too. Did they Increase the Purple Droprates? I Found the shotgun and two schields.
My guess is theyāve been playing with all the boundaries in the loot tables, so more of anything non-white across the board.
I heard it doesnt count considering its not a Legendary.
Drops felt good last night. Did 10 runs on Thr Warrior, got CC, Pyrophobia, Electric leech, Thunderball Fists, and Volcanoe. Actually had it drop a leech on the kill and the pyro on the explosion in one run. Never had that happen before. Itās also first time Iāve ever seem him drop loot outside of his normal pool. Also all lvl 72.
Did 25 runs on knuckledragger. Got 4 hornets.
Did 10 LLM runs, got 5 legendaries. Including an infinity.
All in all, a good return on my 2 hour investment.

I know quite well how Random Number Generators work. What i said was: I finally came to the conclusion that they are not tweaking overall droprates but instead they are enhancing only some of them.
Later you posted yourself that you got 4 hornets doing 25 runs on knuckledragger. Thatās in par with what i said, this week knuckledragger seems to be a good goal for farming.
Of course such theories should be proven with a lot of test runs. So i ask everyone, who still wants a hornet, to try it himself and tell us how much hornets he got in what amount of runs.
I think knuckledragger could not be the only one who is raised to a nice level, but i am quite sure that dr mercy has much worse drop rates than first week. In first week he was giving infinities like knuckledragger is giving hornets this week.
As i bought this game, i only had the test results (which could not cover this late game issues) and my experience from Borderlands 1. Borderlands 1 was very satisfying. So i bought the next game. This one is not satisfying, so i did not buy the next one.
I have some little hope that gearbox will adress this issues in the future. Best way would be selectable difficult levels and allowing to reach all content of the game on a level equal to true vault hunter mode. For those playing UVHM, there could still be an achievment.
Did probably 15 Doc Mercy kills yesterday morning before I realized that the hot fix wasnāt applied yet. Went to lunch and tried again when I got back (after hot fix). Infinity dropped on second attempt. I would say the rates are better. The only other farming I did was for a Harold, and it took close to 15-20 kills to get one. Iāve been playing games for a long time that rely on RNG for loot (WoW, Diablo) and I am very pleased with getting a drop in 10-20 attempts while farming. Going 50+ attempts and hours of killing Hellquist sucks, 10-20 attempts still feels like work but and very satisfying to get the drop. With all of the variations you may still keep going for the perfect roll, but getting stuff along the way helps to think youāre not wasting your time. Really happy this week.

Farmed Savage Lee and the chest & lockers in windbreak camp several times today. Lee dropped 1 Harold in about 20 tries. I found a Leg siren mod & a fire bouncing bonny in the chest in the camp (not simultaneously). It also seemed like I was finding more blues and purples in the chest & lockers than I normally see. All 3 legendarys showed up within about a 45 minute period after finding the 1st.
Also, cronoz, you seem to be complaining about the difficulty of UVHM. Itās supposed to be hard! Also, when selecting the difficulty, it tells you the importance of using slag. Everything is very manageable if you use slag. IMO it makes the gameplay a lot more fun and interesting. You actually have to use some sort of strategy rather than just blowing everything up
