Tony Slows is actually the guy with the “museum” of ship parts.

I forgot that you could even shoot him.

TLDR; Good job gearbox. Not much left to respawn for us! Zarpedon is the big deal from what’s left but now we can do very cool farming runs that probably hits all the maps!

I found someone’s list of unfarmable/unrepeatable bosses/unique enemies:

I might have missed it in the list, but are the backpack/bank SDU upgrades going to be fixed?

#67

@Matrixneo42 That infected Dahl soldier, Eghood, is there everytime I go back to fight CL4P-L3K for an 3DD1.E. He and the robot are fighting each other, and he will drop the Blowfly.

It also seems Lazlo is there at the front of the area too. I am always jumping over him heading down to the robot area.

I disagree.
I’ve had this game since release, I’ve farmed all the bosses you listed. Did the vendor farming, grinding, and what have you. I have at least 2 of every character, almost all of them at max level, mostly optimized loadouts. There really isn’t much to do in the way of map running.

This isn’t BL2, but even BL1 had great map running spots. Most maps in TPS can be cleared out in 5 or 10 minutes. Most have terrible respawn times, so that you can kill 3 maps and not have enemies respawn yet. In a lot of the larger areas, like Outlands Canyon and Trition Flats, there are either a lot of creatures or a lot empty space. There are no Sawtooth Cauldrons or Bloodshot strongholds. The closest thing to that is Pity’s Fall, and even that is iffy IMO.

#70

Give it until the 25th.

“I’ve done 10 runs on Meg and still nothing. Did Gearbox nerf the drops secretly and didn’t include it in the patch notes? Because it only took me seven tries my first time getting a Torrent. BL2 had much better drop rates than TPS. I hate TPS and I hate Gearbox.”

I don’t know whether was addressed to me, but it isn’t unreasonable to compare TPS to its predecessors. This is still a borderlands game after all, a few design tweaks doesn’t change that. Is it really so unreasonable to expect for there to be denser mobs in a game that is the smallest of all 3 games?

End game is fine for you, and its great that you enjoy it. But that doesn’t mean that the lack of end game content isn’t a legitmate problem. In a game this short, this is a fatal flaw that stands out even more. I have over 10 characters with little to do besides replay the story, and I know I’m not the only one that feels this way.

Either way, anything that puts more dots on the map is a great addition to the game at this point. There needs to be more to do.

#72

I hope they add the fix for the missing Celestial Fragtrap class mod soon. I didn’t see it in the patch notes. I’ve noticed if you moonstone grind 3 purple class mods with Fragtrap you always get a purple or lower class mod indicating that the Celestial Fragtrap class mod isn’t even in the game.

#73

It is in the files, but something is causing it to never be selected to spawn or something…

I was more hoping that a fix for some of Athena’s skills being unspec’d by vehicles would have been in here.

Why would they even add the ability to moonstone grind 3 purples just to patch it out later?

Giving us a new farming method and taking away the old one…

I want more farming options, not less. Taking one away is just ridiculous.

#75

Fantastic Patch! Thank you Gearbox!

Now I’m just going to need more space to put all this loot.

Any news on the backpack and Bank upgrade fix?

#76

and still no zarpedon lmao…

probably the best fight in the game, but nah we can’t get that

#77

Because that’s what was causing the random grinder crashes.

#78

Really not sure why zarpedon can’t respawn at least respawn before the little explosive situation that makes the area inaccessible. I. E. Exit and re-enter the game immediately after the fight.

At least it would give you a brief window to farm it’s better than nothing.

So instead of fixing it, they’re just removing it? That’s what I like to call lazy development. That’s the song this games been singing since Day 1.

This game has officially killed my faith in Gearbox. I kept forcing myself to believe they’d turn this game around and all they did was turn me around and give me the shaft over and over again.

I am so done with this franchise. Destiny’s superior in almost every way anyways.

#80

Definitely is your opinion… As for me destiny is rather lackluster to me… Looks gorgeous but the end game is worse than the Pre-Sequel
