Well actually back in Sept people were screaming that they hated OP levels in BL2 and wanted something different


This is different


So we did kind of ask for it.

Not Mayhem modifiers exactly, but everyone was screaming they wanted something unique and more flavorful then just OP lvls.

If people would have said they liked OP levels we may not be in this mess now LOL

This is so true and it’s intriguing that folks now are basically asking for that system.

I am not sure how gearbox can win here. They seem to be damned whatever they do.

I am so looking forward to later today when this drops and I applaud the developers for trying something else, something innovative, and innovation being what made the first game so different and successful.

Not the Golden Chest
it always dropped gear at your level
The bosses, chests, and world drops could drop 2 levels below though.

Someone’s got a Monkey’s Paw with a curled finger. :laughing:

It’s not intriguing at all, people were expecting something better than op levels. Back when Mayhem 3 was the standard, people were complaining about the RNG of buffs and debuffs, and wanted it simplified, which turned to be Mayhem 4. Now they just made what was bad in Mayhem 3 even worse.

‘Everyone wanted wackier modifiers, you reap what you sow’ is oversimplifying things. Some people wanted wackier modifiers akin to what we have now (see the graphic I posted earlier), lots of other people wanted a more standard difficulty increase akin in M4. And of course, alot of people were suggesting just implementing both to appeal to both types of player.

how is it worse. now were quaranteed to have some set of modifiers atleast. so no more -50% gun damage

in combination with -70% elemental damage + 70% normal

enemies take less shock damage

-Fire damage

and in the commign update you can atleast reroll without quitting the game. also youl always have atleast 1 positive modifier

i still dont understand how it couldbe worse then having- 50% gun damae - and -50% ar dmg (uses the boom sicle vryo element) with - cryo damage

#446

i do still hope they have removed the - 50% gun damage as that 1 is just an instant reroll same with 30% projectile bouncing
