Level 80 is going to be the new cap yes: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:IuE5xcqNdRgJ:https://store.steampowered.com/app/872280/Borderlands_2_Commander_Lilith__The_Fight_For_Sanctuary/+&cd=9&hl=nl&ct=clnk&gl=nl

My guess is we’re going to lose our OP levels, then we have to get to level 80 and then do all the op levels again.

If anything I’m thinking Gearbox is just going to stop calling them ‘OP’ levels and everything else will remain the same- guess we’ll find out when their E3 conference starts…

I’m guessing they’re gonna try to time it with a live announcement at E3, for maximum hype… BUT, I’m sure there will be a fair chance of something screwing up, heh. :wink:

So, I’ve never really made any proper Axton since I always felt like I’m a couple points short of what I would like. That is not a problem now. I came up with this fiddling around a little.

Either legendary soldier or maybe switch a point or 2 around and make it a leg engineer build. Some explosive stuff going on and definitely going for fastball as a grenade. Maybe take 2 points out of metal storm to max out impact.

For Queen Scream: might as well make DT die quicker…

@Carlton_Slayer - supposedly it should drop at 12pm Pacific - so 2.5 hours.

Striker Sal’s new build, which just maxes a few skills and adds Divergent Likeness

Hey guys - it looks like the Skill Calc will now go up to 80 - so you don’t have to manually enter the points into the URL

Any ideas on what size the new DLC will be? I’m thinking headhunter size, like 1 map, 1 main mission, and 1 side mission. Maybe bigger, like 2 maps (1 being a redone sanctuary), 2 story missions and 1-3 side missions? Honestly, I have no idea, but I guess we’ll find out today (assuming I can get the community patch working).

No one knows anything more than what’s been posted on innumerable sites about the “leak”. I’m assuming it will be approaching the size of DLCs 1-4 but that’s just based on the fact that we get a new rarity. Unlikely that one map can support an entire new rarity. We’ll know in a hour or so. Maybe.

Since that one, I saw that apparently it was referenced on it’s steam page to be “the 5th major DLC”. I honestly did not expect it possible to get a major DLC sized DLC for free. I can’t imagine it was made in-house if it was cheapy made enough to just be given away as a promotional thing.

Good news: the dlc is available now on Steam
Bad news: the dlc page keeps crashing for the XBox (don’t know about PS4 folks)…
Edit: DLC just started downloading!

Currently in the store, no download link. How big is the DLC?

5.24 GB is the size…

Nothing has changed for me yet, but I do like how the fast travel locations are arranged now.

I’ve almost got the whole thing downloaded now- should be able to get in a good chunck of it before RL interferes…

RL has no right to interfere on this, the most sacred of days.

My 72 build has both Double Up and Nuke and then down Survival to Phalanx Shield and Quick Charge; with the cap I’m gonna also get Healthy and as far as I can into Grit

I might get Mag-Lock further down the line; I’ve never gotten used to it but I might as well try

I can’t believe it’s finally possible to get max Grit and two turrets on my explosive Axton build. 8 more skill points was exactly what I needed to complete my dream build for Axton.

I think this is going to be my new Gaige build. Maybe.

It allows for the deep investment into BFF and OC that I like, but now I can get WDT. I’m so excited. In theory this is good, but I don’t really have any shock stuff. How well will this work? I do not know! My understanding of everything about this game isn’t as vast as a number of you guys so I’m not quite sure how well it’ll do. Like, I’m not entirely sure how well shock weaponry will work with Nth Degree, and I’m considering taking a point out of Annoyed Android and putting it into 12B, but I dunno how good 12B actually is. Never spec’d it. I was just about to go unlock OP levels, but I guess my trip into Digistruct Peak for the first time is going to have to wait now that there are 8 more levels to get. Heh, good thing I hadn’t actually started the farming phase yet. For the record, the 1 point into UF is to activate it for the Legendary Anarchist mod I use.

I also use a Legendary Anarchist and I max out Unstoppable Force since it’s amazing for mobbing. Movement speed increase allows you to get to enemies faster and well the speed boost makes for a lot of fun. UF really shines at +10.

This level cap increase has made me enjoy Maya a lot more; I always felt like she was lacking something but now I can add Sub-Sequence to the traditional Ruin/Scorn setup which while not without its problems is a blast to play.
