Yay! We can now skip the slow mobbing section! Thanks to BGM_ for finding this new skip. Check out his channels below and maybe drop a comment on one of his videos to make his day. BGM_ UA-cam www.youtube.com/@bglm67 BGM_ Twitch www.twitch.tv/bgm_
@@Joltzdude139 its a bit out of the way if you're just casually playing though. good for farming bones and stuff at the endgame but in practically all my casual playthroughs every time i get to wildlife i always put an hour or two into midget farming just for the heck of it
Yeah, I’m not a speed runner or that good at the game so the main reason why I never really do this farm is because you have to kill all the enemies first which just gets tedious and annoying especially on UVHM.
I remember going through the top of the door once when farming the loot midgets there, I never figured out how, I just kinda randomly got launched into the spot. Really amazes me to see a video about this exact spot many years later!
This is what I love about speedrunning communities for games, it doesn't matter how old a game gets and how optimized someone thinks it is, there will always be something new to find to make the run faster.
When I saw the thumbnail, I was so hoping for it to be that exact door. Now we can pretty much run to the loot midgets without having to kill anything! Can‘t wait to see this in one of your playthroughs. On another note. I wanted to thank you for being a constant in my life. Sometimes your name pops into my head, and I get into the mood to watch some BL2 content; always finding you still uploading content on this game, and the BL series in general, brings a smile on my face.
This actually makes me want to go make a character & try this out myself. This game is absolutely timeless! I still stand by: if I could only ever play ONE game for the rest of my life, it would be Borderlands 2 with all of its DLC.
I've started listening to BD1P's videos on LEGO speedrunning and I just gotta say, speed running is insane an so are the runners. This is awesome, anything to break that next minute.
You can also skip angel core! When you get past the bunker, load a character where the mission “where angels fear to tread” has been completed. And thats it! :D
Knew right as I saw BMG’s Yt short that this was going to be made into a video, glad I can see history of borderlands skips still be made in front of me
Hilarious that something as simple as crouched grenade jumping was the answer for this part of the game. Now if I can just get good enough to do this to skip the door and get to the loot midget farming.
It's great that this is easily replicated. Too many strats have been found that require either too much setup or a run-killing risk. Able to slot right into the route!
0:44 funny thing is... there is a way to skip that part... it's just very annoying... still saves time lol ~I want to see Joltz perfect that skip when farming the perfect Dog.
Believe it or not… only the last 2 waves are checked for the mission to progress. Someone would just need to find a way to skip the beginning mobbing bits.
I break every game I play, after playing borderlands hardcore from like 2009-2021 I have done everything in bl1 & bl2. every glitch every skip. everything.
25 seconds is massive, if you want a better example look at the super Mario speedruns. They’ve been so heavily optimized now that getting a time 1 second quicker is huge, so for a game like Borderlands having a 25 second skip is huge
not surprised skips are found, when I try to find casual information I can't find some shit it's just complete mess that's not confirmed. even some other games that have much optimized routing such as dark souls finds new skips sometimes
Joltz so my phone broke and am using grandmas phone but in the video i noticed you mentioned southpaw steam and power door and was wondering if people already know a skip for it because i found a way to get through that map all the way from spawn to assasian rouf to farm the dog shotgun easier

What a momentous day!
Finally, loot midgets here we come
Just tried it and it's so mind-blowing thinking it was right above us the whole time lol
I thought it was about the cursed 2 turrets of challenge run ruining
@@ashtonohl2176It really was over our heads
Im not a speedrunner. But like you said: that midget farm gonna be faster
I still think Dahl Abandoned will be faster, but this is a super nice alternative.
@@Joltzdude139 its a bit out of the way if you're just casually playing though. good for farming bones and stuff at the endgame but in practically all my casual playthroughs every time i get to wildlife i always put an hour or two into midget farming just for the heck of it
i didnt even think about the farm, the amount of time wasted clearing the waves and the easiest skip ever was just sitting right there
As a Member I got to SKIP the wait to watch this video. Click JOIN to get early access to videos like me!
Thanks for the support bro
Now that’s a homie
Joltz and K6 best BL2 content creators
"The skip, dude!"
K6 is a real one
It's crazy to think that you can get past this door and not even have to do much to get past it.
Gotta love finding new stuff everytime with this game
All it takes is 2 grenades jumps
even for someone who isn't a speed runner skipping this door would be a miracle.
Yeah, I’m not a speed runner or that good at the game so the main reason why I never really do this farm is because you have to kill all the enemies first which just gets tedious and annoying especially on UVHM.
@@Jpow5734 I know man it takes ages
Ah the nostalgia, I miss those rocket jumping playthroughs. I'm surprised people are still finding skips after all this time
Same. We've found a ton of skips, but who knows how many more there are to find
Still not fast enough to save Bloodwing...
Rip birb
12 years has passed, yet we are still finding new stuff. God i love this game
Same!
I remember going through the top of the door once when farming the loot midgets there, I never figured out how, I just kinda randomly got launched into the spot. Really amazes me to see a video about this exact spot many years later!
My brother's first playthrough was ended by this door, he had no idea how to open it. 12 years later he can finally finish the game.
Skill issue
Its crazy people are still finding new skips like this, well done. The borderlands community is awesome!
This is what I love about speedrunning communities for games, it doesn't matter how old a game gets and how optimized someone thinks it is, there will always be something new to find to make the run faster.
This game has been out for so long and we’re STILL finding new stuff, I love this community
When I saw the thumbnail, I was so hoping for it to be that exact door. Now we can pretty much run to the loot midgets without having to kill anything! Can‘t wait to see this in one of your playthroughs.

Not even a speed runner, but this is a godsend for farming, the loot Midgets 😂😂😂
This is my favorite kind of new discovery. The one that is so simple it goes unsolved for a literal decade.
Can’t wait for a Control Core Angel skip to be found in another 10 years time.
Doesn't this mean that Krieg is the only one who can't do this skip because he's too heavy? Krieg players getting shafted again sadly…
You are unfortunately correct
Grog stack rocket jump would work.
I remember as a kid playing this game wanting a skip for that segment! great work team.
I'm gonna thank bgm every time I pass that door now
this changes the entire way i play borderlands!
Remember seeing the original for this skip in my feed and was like yes! Finally!
It's about damn time. Thank you.
This actually makes me want to go make a character & try this out myself. This game is absolutely timeless! I still stand by: if I could only ever play ONE game for the rest of my life, it would be Borderlands 2 with all of its DLC.
HAH, saw the short for this and my first thought was "jolts is gonna love this"
This will save me hours in my doctors orders farms from now on.
This is gonna make the loot midget farm so much better
Definitely gonna try this in my next run
That's an insane discovery. 25 whole seconds is huge.
more importantly doctor's orders is faster!!!
That was so cool. Congrats to BGM
This is so great! Now the loot midget farms will be a little faster 🎉🎉
Lilgasmask666 drooling rn
Okay I was wondering why I couldn't make jumps by crouch jumping like I could in other FPS games, guess thats just why this took so long. Great video
Cant wait to see this in a new bl2 playthroughs
I've started listening to BD1P's videos on LEGO speedrunning and I just gotta say, speed running is insane an so are the runners. This is awesome, anything to break that next minute.
dam!!!!! 25 seconds thats insane!!!
Makes you wonder if anymore skips will be found with crouch grenade jumping
Midget skip is actually huge
Now all we need is control core skip
I hope someday someone finds it
This is why I love the BL2 community, always finding new things!
love you little video about some actu of B2. Also surprise that players still find new skip, what a find.
thats actually insane
Well my loot midget farms just got faster and a lot less tedious and I can’t express my gratitude for this new info
wait the specimen door?? Heck yeah dude, those midgets are mine!!
Could have saved hours of my life if I knew about this 😭
You can also skip angel core! When you get past the bunker, load a character where the mission “where angels fear to tread” has been completed. And thats it! :D
Knew right as I saw BMG’s Yt short that this was going to be made into a video, glad I can see history of borderlands skips still be made in front of me
even claptrap cant open the door
Such a great video and skip!!
I'm sure this game still has a lot of cards in its sleeves that will surprise us
i remember seeing this on twitter but i couldn’t replicate it in game, definitely gonna keep trying now this strat looks super useful!
It's super easy once you practice it a couple times
Hilarious that something as simple as crouched grenade jumping was the answer for this part of the game.
Now if I can just get good enough to do this to skip the door and get to the loot midget farming.
Cool find..now someone has to directly granade boost from the ground while crouching, over the door :)
25 seconds might as well be a whole minute saved thats how big it is
Great video joltz this is pretty crazy
ive always been super interested in speedrunning borerlands 2 i might throw myself at it for a while and see how i like it :3
It's great that this is easily replicated. Too many strats have been found that require either too much setup or a run-killing risk. Able to slot right into the route!
Randy seeing players still break a 12-years old game: "Aight, increase the cringe meter for B4"
if people found a way to totally break the whole Disc 1 in FF7 after so many years, im no surprised about anything. BGM is a legend
Maybe the best time to get into bl2 speedrunning since the released?
BGM chose to be legendary one day and now we have this.
you're telling me that entire mobbing section only takes 25 seconds? holy hell
In a speedrun setting. It takes much longer for casual play.
Bro, Ocarina of Time is still finding new skips. The well of Speedruns is infinitely deep.
I get to watch a new joltzdude vid while there is an armed intruder in my school? Awesome!
Edit: they arrested the guy so yay
If only i knew this 10 years ago, loot midget farming would be faster
0:44 funny thing is... there is a way to skip that part... it's just very annoying... still saves time lol
~I want to see Joltz perfect that skip when farming the perfect Dog.
Damn, I thought it'd be the door in Eridium Blight before Hero's Pass.
We can get past that one but nothing progresses if claptrap hadn't already told you to continue alone.
Believe it or not… only the last 2 waves are checked for the mission to progress. Someone would just need to find a way to skip the beginning mobbing bits.
This is going to be in a Summoning Salt video in a couple years
finally i dont have to do that bs anymore thank god
That's crazy, would have saved so much time for farming legendaries there :o
I screamed "WHAT!?" so hard that my throat is hurt now XD
Super cool thumbnail I love the face on the door she looks really cute
the midget farm been has changed forever
I break every game I play, after playing borderlands hardcore from like 2009-2021 I have done everything in bl1 & bl2. every glitch every skip. everything.
Darksmoke's reaction : ...
saw this on redit and laughed so hard
This is actually unreal
Almost 6 min and you haven't said "the skip dude" sad
Time for someone to find a skip for control core🤣
Just made a new character! I can't wait to farm the loot midgets with this new skip!
...oh wait I'm Krieg
+1 "the skip, dude" during future playthroughs
The Skip, Dude 🥹
25 seconds is massive, if you want a better example look at the super Mario speedruns. They’ve been so heavily optimized now that getting a time 1 second quicker is huge, so for a game like Borderlands having a 25 second skip is huge
25 second save is crazy for a speedrun
Darksmoke will be very happy to break more records
Lol makes me wonder if I actually started tearing up game files how fast I could play through the game
WE LOVE YOU BGM
I had no idea that you can get under the map in the wildlife preserve.
Wow very cool 😎
Gring the loot midgets is gonna be faster now.
as the saying goes: when one door closes, walk over it
My little brother accidentally got stuck on top of that exact door by accident lmao
not surprised skips are found, when I try to find casual information I can't find some shit it's just complete mess that's not confirmed. even some other games that have much optimized routing such as dark souls finds new skips sometimes
have a good one Joltz
Joltz so my phone broke and am using grandmas phone but in the video i noticed you mentioned southpaw steam and power door and was wondering if people already know a skip for it because i found a way to get through that map all the way from spawn to assasian rouf to farm the dog shotgun easier
I can totally post it to the discord I know it might alrighty be known and it's definitely not as cool but...
You are all quite insane ❤️
You are not wrong… that is massive
We can finally say, THE SKIP DUDE
Level 13 at the wildlife preserve is crazy
