Loved the fast breakneck action you provided. Much like my best vids, imo. I love it when the action seems non-stop. all those DoT’s hanging on ya as you keep alive by simply KILLING! lmao great stuff!
well…
I’ll just leave this alone.

Paid some attention to All Go Together, my Torgue Krieg. Struggled through quite a few levels of green and white gear, though I did have an underlevelled Kerblaster which did good service. Finally made it to level 57 while in Opportunity, i.e. two capstones! That’s always a long hard climb. Now I have Bloodsplosion; the psycho is perfected. @FunkJunkie came in and made the surveyors tremble. Game crashed, unsurprisingly, and I tried to persuade him it does that all the time in that map. Fortunately I’d been regularly forcing a save.
It’s a shame because without that irritation Opportunity might be my favourite map. I even caught a loader enjoying it, gazing so romantically across the sea he didn’t hear my dense mass of psychoness tiptoeing up behind.

Just popped in and saw this post by meatpopsicle about the loot midgets, and I got a funny surprise. The guy in that picture is Sam. I’ve never met him, but he’s close friends with some old friends of mine. Apparently an awesome guy.

Got Axton to OP6. Thank goodness for Knuckle Dragger being so easily farmable.
They say the first fight is always the most difficult.

Funk, you’re on PC, no? Are you not experiencing this? If you do a full tour of the map, clearing out all the spawn points, particularly spending some time around the backside of the map, it crashes like it’s on a limited timer with me. I should actually see if the crashes occur at the same point in time in the map (not location, but time spent in the map). There’s plenty of time to do a mission and get out, or enough time to clear out many spawn points, but spending enough time to comfortably wipe the map usually results in a crash.
@hattieinduni, do you usually find yourself back in the south 40 when it crashes? I don’t believe I’ve ever been up by the vending machines when it happens.

Messing around with a Jakobs Sal build at OP8.
Unofficial Community Patch is active in the following video, just a heads up to those who do not care for it.

If it’s of any help, I’ve never had the crashes you guys get. I run a laptop with reasonably good hardware - but not specifically oriented for gaming. I wonder if there’s some increased graphic load - PhysX or the like - that you have that I don’t that conflicts with that map.

currently farming for a practicable fire butcher
but it’s like every butcher i get is social non-elemental
Me either. I do remember reading about @hattieinduni ‘s problems at this map and in the TT DLC also iirc some time ago in re-capping this post, but like Jefe i don’t have, nor have i ever had a problem on that map (one of my fav’s) or on any map. I’ve never had a crash and my PC is junk. I have made a couple of cheeky ini edits to help with the looks and make my framerate nice and steady which i have locked at 72fps, but i’m not rockin’ the sort of hardware that Ad is with PhysX and as a novice PC owner i would not be able to offer much help in that area but i did do a mild-ish OC on my little 1gb 5770 to help but it’s like 8 or 9 years old 2nd hand and i wasn’t worried tbh if it died, but it hasn’t missed a beat. The only place i can remember my frames taking a noticeable and repeatable dip is in Washburn near H3RL-E.
Sorry if this is no help and that both of you have these prob’s as it must get frustrating at times.

Hmm, about what kind of timeframe would you guess?
I think my rather poorly kitted Maya was in there for a decent amount of time running all the missions in her recent trip through in UVHM, and she wasn’t exactly speeding through, even ran the missions sequentially…

It’s not too frustrating - the map works well enough for long enough to complete the missions. Let me see if I can’t standardize a test to cause a crash, and see if others have the same issue.
Jakobs Assassin rolled the Forge and did a couple 12 O’Clock High missions as well as the Commercial Appeal. It was a fun change of pace to rock a Torgue Ravager with Zer0 for a while. Those boys in Flyboy’s Tower were unusually lucky with the RNG of UVHM+, and I really had to lure them out one by one or get killed.
Bandit Mechromancer rolled Sanctuary and picked up the This Town Ain’t Big Enough mission. That was just enough to get her warmed up with some Anarchy, so she went back to Hammerlock for more and picked up the Bad Hair Day and Shielded Favors missions. I never noticed before that Claptrap gives melee damage numbers when you high five him. He can’t be slagged, take Death Mark, be Executed, or any number of debuffs, but still.

Interesting that it doesn’t affect everyone - in this case I’m fairly sure it’s not something that can be adjusted with settings because it’s so, so common (when I haunted the steam forums which have a lot more - and worse - traffic it got brought up all the time), and I’ve had it on both my desktop and my cruddy laptop before that got nicked. I’m also pretty certain it’s not a time issue - yesterday’s crash was late on but I’ve also had it when I met Jack’s double. Ah well.

Made a few more attempts at Vora with the Rev and am learning a few things- but not from success unfortunately. The Rev found an alkaline Op6 booster shield in a Doc Zed machine, then an OP7 alkaline spike and finally an OP8 alkaline turtle shield. Decided to go with the turtle shield, which helped keep the Rev alive when Vora tossed spikes at him. I realized I will have to change tactics if I keep using the classic DPUH/GN, as standing on the far side of the arena is costing my due to lack of accuracy- it may be time to try a fire Lady Fist here instead. Also, a Lighting Bolt might be a better choice as when I use the Chain Lightning I sometimes catch the Rev in the initial throw, and with Double Your Fun that usually means trouble. I’ll look at making some tweaks to the build for dealing with Vora, but in the end this particular build may not be up to dealing with Vora at OP8…
Sarge Steel pushed on thru normal though and is about to head to WEP- should finish normal in another couple of days…

Things got very very late last night with story advancement ( just about to go to Hero’s Pass ) and various farming runs. I got the 3 primary goals : a Transformer from Pimon in case I need it for the Peak ; and a fire BoA from the WEP LLM’s, which I have been lacking this whole time ; and a new Hard Harold ( I g-damn hate the DP ) - so much better.
Also got a Gentleman’s Storm with Vlad grip and Mal stock & scope
One of these 
And a Bee. I thought my last one was bad, but this one has two Pangolin parts to give me the worst possible Bee of all time 
Also noticed this for the first time ( it says “BIKINI BITCHES” )
Also, for @Worblehat , I found this shield guide which has a better assessment of the effect of parts than the wiki has :
Edit : on my way back from the WEP, I got more stuff!

lol, did not see that upon inspecting that skin just a few days ago. lol
I went back to Dexi and tried my luck…Spawned Dexi 3 consecutive times before depleting my Ridrock levels.
Another Tumtum Elephant Gun drop from Arizona. Still no matching grip.
Yay! double Leg com drop.
I nice pic of my 3rd Dexi drop of the evening. NOTHING of note dropped. Not even a decent nade.
out of Ridrock, time to re-up…decided to go back to Bunker, this was on the way…
Changed my mind and rerouted to Washburn Refinery for some Hyp-bashing.
on the way to Hype.
Hype was just that. All Hype. lol

Last session i had a wedding to attend with my Assassin and his imaginary friend, aka "Hack … & Slash" but as was apparently customary to do we had to partake in the gathering of some items to help with the good fortune of the Happy Couple which involved firstly kidnapping a baby …
And then torturing said baby which "Hack … & Slash" did in a way that some would call unsympathetic and heartless, and was totally uncalled for. But “Z” did what had to be done for the sake of love 
And with a Haiku as is normal for Z
Then it was time to get the wedding underway with the help of the special Love Potion …
Which seemed to be working until the $h*t hit the fan and all hell broke loose in an all out war between everyone, and left "Hack … & Slash" in the middle of it with no choice but to subdue everyone … or another way of putting it would be … He killed everyone including the “Happy Couple” …
Then a stray 
appeared so Z stuck a 
in it and 
…
We found this truly epic world drop …
OH … i also did some fishing of sorts …
