I miss my Ogreā€¦ :frowning: That and ARs that donā€™t suck! :angry:

#20

Yeah, the Major Tom and Explosives Torques (yeah, im deliberately spelling it with a Q now LOL) are the only ARs i use, and not all that often at that!

#21

The skullmasher is the closest we have.

Yeah, I miss the pimp. It would be so cool with cryo too! :yum:

#23

What I really miss are the scav type ar rifles but they were solid in bdl1. Clips of 90 bullets and solid damage with a good fire rate. I was so excited to see them back in tps buttttt they suck :frowning:

#24

I bet a Cryo Shredifier with Aureliaā€™s accuracy increasing skills would ve pretty sick!

I gotta get one of those for my Aurelia.

#25

I love the shredifier. But in bdl1 those were almost what the assault rifles were. At least they seemed like that. In tps rat-a-tat ARs are close but they lack power :frowning:

#26

Torque had these incredibly accurate incredibly fast firing SMGs in BL1.

Torque was not all about the explosions back then!

I bet that was before Mr. Tourges time though :p.

The company was called Torgue. It was founded by Mr Torgue. There is a reason it was called Torgue. Torgue.

Apart from that ridiculous glitch with Salvador, the Pimpernel was balanced due to its learning curve. Hitting that ā€œsweet spotā€ on moving targets really isnā€™t that easy. Auto - win weapons like the DPUH or the old Rosie are far more problematic, imho.

the pimp was great and aurelia would like a cryo one! plus there is no bee shield to make it op, imo. i would dual wield a pimp and lyuda with sal and his legendary hoarder mod, so much death and fun!

As much as I love the Pimpernel, Iā€™m happy that itā€™s not in the game this time. We have new cool toys, thatā€™s better :slight_smile:

Any gun that can one-shot an OP8 shielded marauder without slag or matching element would be ridiculous in TPSā€™s scaling.

Yes it was ā€œsortaā€ balanced with itā€™s learning curveā€¦ But not nearly enough to compensate for itā€™s ridiculous payoff.

It was OP in Salā€™s handsā€¦ And Zeroā€™sā€¦ And Mayaā€™sā€¦ And arguably Gaigeā€¦ And the last 2 could still use it very well still.

I shudder to think what Nisha could do with itā€¦ Showdown aims very close to the fabled sweet spot when shooting from the hipā€¦ And the orbs could crit even if you donā€™t shoot right thanks to tombstone. ā€¦and thatā€™s not even factoring in if itā€™s cryoā€¦ I donā€™t see myself using anything elseā€¦ Ever.

Or what Athena could do with a shock one and 600 stacks of maelstromā€¦ (See @BookEmDanoā€™s thread on the subject for a glimpse of the nightmare it could be)

I do miss shooting people in the dickā€¦

#35

Athena can do anything with anything once she has enough Maelstrom.

Also, since showdown increases bullet speed, that would make the Pimp less useful? Still, Unforgiven, trick shot and Tombstone with the Pimpernel would kill everything.

#36

yeess me too!!!

#37

imo best balancing game

#38

perhaps the guy who was responsible for the AR in bl1 was firedā€¦well it was a huge mistake lol

I miss my Ogre, not that cheap imitation spinigun made by Torgue but my true lead slinging no recoil monster made by Atlas.

The sounds it made when you hit metal storm with Roland, you felt like you were recreating the jungle shoot out in Predator with that beast.

I really do miss the sounds of the old ARs from Borderlands, the only guns that sound remotely close are Scav/bandit and theyā€™re all liquid ass so far. Havenā€™t found a use for the fusilade yet, I feel like weā€™re missing a character that wrecks with rapid fire weapons instead of large burst damage/free ammo abuse.
