I’ve played 80 million times and still have never gotten a level 65 fl4k mod to drop (i just want it for my collection). 90% of the drops seem to be the holy grail, deathrattle or that useless sniper.
and I don’t get chests that spawn two or three of the Res when it isn’t anointed and the stats are the same.
for the boss i always look for shock, corrosive and incendiary grenades as those can take him out quickly. easier than getting lucky and finding a good legendary gun.
to me the biggest factor in success is your first chest. whenever I get a jakobs and/or torgue gun I know I’m screwed b/c generally non elemental (some torgue whites may be but usually not) and the reload times are just too slow–I usually end up dying while trying to reload. If I can get a good maliwan pistol and a tediore or atlas (other than the AX-88) it ends up being much simpler to succeed.
Just any element, I can make any work. I’ve thought about asking on here for a trade before but I think I might be the only BL3 player who plays on mayhem 6 instead of 10 or 11
Thanks for the info. I must be doing something right, I hate those pistols too. Im finding that the beginning weapons determine my route from the start.
Infact yeah you are totally right, I completely forgot about Atlas guns. They are so powerful in arms race.
Getting a torgue or jakobs (or both) in the first chest is grim, that has killed so many of my runs
