Yep, we refer as COM to the class mods. That abbreviation comes from BL1, but I don’t remember what it means though xDDD
Oh, and yeah, the Cobra sucks with Krieg, even on a explosive build.
Thank you both for the clarification.
I tried it during the Loot Hunt and was very, very underwhelmed with its performance. If it shot faster, processed BB, and wasn’t such a pain to get, it would be an honorable mention. As it is, there’s no redeeming qualities about it for Krieg, hence the reason it’s not even mentioned in the TG thread. Like Wings said, even Maya struggles to make it useful. If I were going with a Jakobs sniper, I’d go with a regular one or maybe a Buffalo or Elephant instead. But the Pimp and Interfacer are his best two as long as you don’t treat them like traditional snipers and use them as shotguns instead (in close quarter combat).
Anytime. I was new to Krieg too and gained my knowledge from those who had more experience with him and from playing him. I tend towards a melee/explosive build, which is why I posted the suggestions I did. If you want to dabble in Hellborn, @xmngr is your man because he’s quickly becoming the Hellborn BA. If you don’t believe me, go look at his videos.
COM stands for Class Optimization Mod and is from Borderlands 1. When we say COM or Mod, we’re talking about the same thing. I liked the Rage Meat I found while leveling Krieg because of the passive healing and health boost. It’s not always easy to get a kill while rampaging, so having a backup really helps when you’re learning how it works. Once you’re comfortable with it, then it’s time to switch over to a sickle MOD and go to town.

My curiosity for the Scarlet dlc was stronger…now I regret doing it.
Now Iam lvl 41 starting to doing the mission to rescue Roland and I’m getting 3xp per kill…
Keep doing the story missions and the game will level up the world. It should match yours before you hit level 50. This is the reason why I said don’t worry about the DLCs: it’s real easy to get overlevelled in TVHM and NVHM. UVHM levels with you, so it’s not an issue there.
I thought the Interfacer a shotgun already.
I meant the Longbow. 
At what level do you think I should do that? Now that I made Scarlet’s dlc I am insecure about the dlc’s.
Just run through the DLCs. Helps you to teach some other game mechanics as well 
About Torgue, you can usually find orange weapons (one of the rarest tiers) in vendors. These weapons are bought with a currency called “Torgue tokens” which some enemies and bosses drop. You can find them a lot in a mission called “Bar Room Brawl”, which is repeatable. Also, the missions are usually paid with Torgue tokens.
The DLC order is something like:
1.- Scarlett
2.- Torgue
3.- Hammerlock
4.- Tiny Tina
At the end of the playthrough, usually Head Hunter packs (1-2 quest short DLC, there are 5) are done. Then, you run TVHM (playthrough 2) without DLC and finally, UVHM (playthough 3) with everything. Be cautious that in the 3rd playthrough, Krieg gets the second skill tree cap at lv57 and then, you can decide to go Hellborn or Bloodlust.
Did Scarlet already in TVHM. Maybe it isn’t a bad idea to do the Torgue at the end of the TVHM and do all dlsc’s midway UVHM.
That’s what I would do. A Double Penetrating Unkempt Harold will last you a few levels in UVHM before you’ll need a new one. Just remember the legendary items require 613 tokens to purchase them, but you can farm Pete’s bar brawl for ~25 a pop (20 from the quest and more from the BA Enforcers. There might be more, but I’ve never counted).
I now completed TVHM and while was finishing the few side quest I had, Savage Lee dropped the lvl 50 Stiff Unkempt Harold. Is it still a good idea doing Torgue dlc’s before starting UVHM? One other thing I was curious about, is if there is an “ideal” level to start UVHM?
Excuse all my beginner questions, but I am thinking about creating a new toon, (undecided between Axton and Maya) and I guess all the suggestions can be applied to them too.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: Just did 5 farm runs on Savage Lee, and got 3 Unkempt Harold legenderies including the Double Penetration one. 
Honestly you probably want to start UVHM as close to 50 as possible, because all your weapons will be 50 or below. So if you want to do Torgue DLC, I suggest you do it in UVHM so you profit from the gear. But it’s available and on your level as soon as you load into UVHM, so you can start it right away.
usually the main advice is to not to start uvhm too overleveled
Since I’m almost lvl 53 it’s time to move forward then 
Thank you both.
Yes it is. Remember the enemies level with you, so you’ll be replacing gear every few levels as it starts to under perform. I wouldn’t wait much longer to start.
Usually I just slag the enemies and wait for the hp to drop to the red zone…then i just let Krieg spred his poetry through the battlefield
That’s what I do except I let my wife’s Maya apply the slag while I shoot everything up until it’s time to rampage. 
Need some advice please regarding the COM to use. I have these 2 COM’s:
I ask this, because I see a lot of people using the Slayer of Terramorphous, but think the legendary psycho class mod is better. So far my experience in UMHM has being “intense” due to the class characteristics and my own playstyle. Playing with a lvl 50 Slagga, a lvl 50 Double Penetrating Unkempt Harold and the lvl 40 Love Thumper shield.
Today after the “Rescue Roland” mission that I did with 3 random guys, one of them said that I play like a awesome crazy badass psycho
. To me, it was the best compliment someone could give me.
Thank you all.
Go Psycho. The Slayer COMs are crap across the board except for Gaige players who want to get 600 stacks of Anarchy.
