Commandos aren’t at all weak, as you can see if you look in the Borderlands 2 > Axton section. In terms of just random players, the real problem is that Salvador is ridiculously OP (especially with certain gear equipped), so a lot of players opt for easy god-mode and play him.

I have two Axtons myself (one 72 and one 54-ish), and he’s the main for a number of regulars here. If there’s anything specific you need, just give a shout.

[Guide] Beginners Guide to Axton

Beginners guide to Axton Skills: synergy and specs Early skills synergy Axton has skills that synergyze pretty well across his trees so it is wise to get some key skills instead of going straight to the capstones. The first skills to look for are Impact, Metal Storm and Ready. With them, Axton can make any gun work as they got their basic aspects boosted: damage, fire rate and reload speed. Also, the recoil reduction can make the handle of some manufacturers easy. The second step is to make yo…

[DDD] And the Kitchen sink: Perfecting the cookie cutter

The standard axton builds boil down to: Gemini Slag and Explosive(I much prefer to call this splash as most of the best weapons for this aren’t explosive). This guide is on how to build them while leveling. The finalized builds normally come up to these. Level 50 61 72 Note: I do not like 5/5 onslaught as I’ve never thought +6% additive gun damaged and the movement speed which I always found to be over rated could beat the survivability which will holds true for raid bosses. DO NOT PUT P…

[Guide] Axton Skill Guide

Some important notes: Gun damage on Axton isn’t multiplicative so stacking it as much as you can isn’t the greatest thing to do, missing 6% really isn’t much damage depending on the gun. The closest thing he has to multiplicative is grenade damage as that affects splash. These skill sucks, only spec in it to get further down the tree, and only if there are no better options for you. :star:Very specific and it can be good but requires effort and the outcome tends to be lack lust…

50 Ways to keep Axton alive in UVHM

For me in normal and even in TVHM I did a lot of dropping my turret and essentially running away. It got the job done as I would also toss out a couple of grenades. That strategy doesn’t work in UVHM though. Your turret is your brother in arms or more then that according to Axton. Take your longbow and take your mag lock. Have the Gemini perk. You can throw one on a far wall and one on the ceiling almost right next to you. As it slags the enemies just mow them down with your favorite gun. As t…
