Rerolling anointments with eridium would be awesome.

And to be fair, I’m not calling anyone out or saying they are in the wrong, I’d do the same myself if only to try out some wacky combos/builds.
But it does create an unrealistic expectation in viewer’s minds, that these items are relatively easy to obtain. And it also makes the current drop rate/Mayhem-level/anoint issues much more apparent.
Not to mention the second-class feeling that a lot of console players have concerning the focus of GBX. I’m not saying we should have more/better drops, but rather they need to implement a system that makes it so players on all platforms have a better chance of getting the gear they want, from within the game.

That’s for sure. I farmed Warden on m9 with yellowcake looking for a nuclear boom sickle and got nothing for almost 5 and a half hours! Honestly this is nothing new, Gearbox has known we as the community have been unhappy with the dedicated drops for many months. But given the time on console to kill, save, quit, reload it should be rewarding after some time that you put in. And while I know it takes time to finalize a patch and even with what was done THIS week was ok but still many issues remain. The sooner they implement it the better.
Yeah I have to say I agree here. PC it is so much more advantageous to play on because THERE, there’s work arounds to get the variant you want on guns, the save quit reload feature works more fluidly, and on top of that they have SAVE FILES they can just let other players use to just copy, NO regrinding of gear at all, they have what another player has earned not gotten THEMSELVES. while I respect content creators I do feel it is a tad on the unfair side for console players who have to grind SO hard for their items and create new toons or ask others to powerlevel them. Somehow a better way needs to be found for console to grind more efficiently.
Yeah, what is up with that? I found one, from Wotan I think, level cap 57 increase. It was nice for all of a week (Phaseslam +300% weapon damage). But haven’t seen one since.
I have only received 1 boom sickle, no element, in all the time I farmed the Warden, and that was also pre-Mayhem 2.0. I recently got 5-7 of the laser-guided RPGs, and 5 or 6 of the Plaguebearers (3 corrosive, one cryo, one or two shock).
I think I might have gotten a few dozen sickles, so the boom must be a 5% chance or so?
The boom part is very rare
That’s an other reason why dedicated drops are so important
On mh10, the warden HAS to drop a sickle he dies

Booms are probably the hardest to get gun now. I’ve tried going where the ARs drop with loot the universe and plenty of useless ARs drop and very rarely a Sickle let alone a Boom. Now at the Warden I get constantly showered in SMGs that used to be top tier but are useless now but I can get them when I can’t use them. The only non DLC gun I care about on Moze is like trying to get a friggin Norfleet.
He drops stuff from his list, but sickles seem to be as rare of the rest now. At least even money I get a Wagon Wheel or Freeman, with the odd sickle here or there. But a dozen runs in a row probably isn’t enough to get a boom.
Yea apparently I got flagged for even pointing it out and so my comment is hidden LOL
I spent 90 minutes last week farming him for a plaguebearer. It dropped but it wasn’t M10 and I’m not sure I wanna go through it all again.
Everytime i see a post about something should be guaranteed at m10, i have to say, it should be at every mayhem level. m10 is where we need it the least, since there’s no more point to farming after you get there.
If a problem exists in m10 it definitely does and probably worse at every other level, the fix should be applied uniformly throughout.
Even plague bearer its rare to see one.
