Tell me about it. Perhaps I should try using a Lascaux next time I get knocked into FFYL as Maya. I’ll let you know how that worked out 
outside of Rocket Launchers, the best guns to get out of FFYL are usually Hyperion ones, because they remian very accurate even when you do not ADS. The Bitch is a GREAT choice if you can aim. Otherwise, the CC does wonders.
As I rarely us RL- the DPUH (that, or whatever weapon they have in hand- in Axton’s case I’d throw grenades as well- if I still had Do or Die…)
The shock Norfleet has become my go to FFYL weapon on Gaige. That thing just fries everything.

He is screwed. Dahl even makes some damn fine grenades that could probably work if he had Do or Die (but I have some weird rules about my builds, and my Torgue-only Commando currently gets that skill), leaving my “Dahlmmando” to die. Seriously though, if there’s a weakened enemy who’s not sharp enough to back away from the wounded soldier looking for a Second Wind, I’ll fire on them and maybe get lucky.
Norfleet, DPUH, Ravager, Hawkeye, Florentine, Pimpernel/Ahab (if the enemy was a jerk)…pretty much whatever gun was already in my hand. Borderlands has taught me that there is no problem in the game you can’t solve with more gun.
I try not to go into ffyl if I can help it. If I do- Pimpernel.
No one’s mentioned the Baby Maker…my Siren has had phenomenal luck with a BM, and points into Immolate don’t hurt either.
…I did for my Tediore allegiance build a few lines up 
So you did…I missed that earlier.
The Hail is a great FFYL weapon for Gaige, even against those Marauders that go behind cover JUST AFTER you go to FFYL.
E-tech Launchers. an OP8 slag Norfleet is (unfortunately) the only one not left behind at 72.
Won’t argue against the Norfleet’s damage, but I prefer the Tediore Launcher for accuracy, turnaround…and a free rocket.
It just occurred to me to ask, but has anyone previously used the PRAZMA CANON in FFYL?
I don’t do weapons just for ffyl. I try to not go down often and if I do go down the guns I have equipped should be good enough to get me up. Twister, pimps, and bekah all do well and those are my main guns.
I also don’t do a healing gun, if I h only have 4 gun slots I want to use those so I’m ready for any enemy. If I have a launcher for ffyl and a grog, that’s half my slots.

It’s funny how usually, getting a second wind is very easy with the gun I already have in hand, or impossible no matter what I would have because there is no one to shoot or the angle just isn’t there 
I have recently found that the Pyrophobia is an incredible FFYL launcher, at least in an area with red health bars. If an enemy goes behind cover, just fire a rocket above the cover and the multiple explosions effect should grant you a SW. It’s an incredibly underrated launcher. I’m kind of shocked that it isn’t included in the top gear threads, not even in the honorable mentions section.
The Creamer is also a nice FFYL weapon. At the right distance, it can hit enemies behind cover as well. The cool thing about it is that getting a SW with the Creamer gives you full health.
I’d argue that Maya’s Scorn has a place here…being able to slag a target while in FFYL is just too brilliant.
Following that argument, I’ll have to add Axton’s Do or Die with a slag grenade.
i still say a nukem, for shooting enemies behind cover
After yesterday, it just boils down to whatever Gaige currently has in hands. I’d still want to find a Topneea but I doubt that I still need to use a launcher if I fall in FFYL.
