Just as long as someone doesn't take up the same challenge against him in the sequel. That person would have to be a Jack of all trades though, so he should be fine.
Awesome to see someone finally managed it! Totally agree with the parameters, as well; one button press = one shot has always been the metric for these kinds of runs, so the Chopper and turret are fair game!
I see a lot of people do this and a strangely high amount don't go for Mordecai Lethal Strike + Lethal strike boosting class mod, which I'm pretty sure is some of if not the highest damage you can deal in 1 attack
@@traviszane5334 yeah but with the level difference a good caustic sniper could def one shot with ele proc, opening up lethal strike shenanigans for everything else
@dracotoy in Borderlands 1 corrosive actually does less than explosive to Mad Mel. LvL 40 (peak lvl for Knox DLC normal) Revolver Mordecai can one shot Mad Mel with a Detonating Law Edit: Also, you can't crit Mad Mel so you can only do half health at most with a caustic sniper
it was always so goofy to me that mordecai has the highest melee dmg in the game, which might be the highest dmg per any hit in the game, when his focus was accurate guns and a bird, and theres two whole other characters that have more melee skills 😭
I think when it comes to the rules, its best to imagine it as a turn-based game For the turret, throwing it out takes your turn. From there, it attacks on it's own, not taking your turn, thus, it's one attack For burst weapons, one burst = one turn it's an interesting little thing
I assume this was less arduous than it was time-consuming. If that assumption is correct, I'm glad the challenge run was at least a tad bit more chill than your usual ones - you've earned a break from your self-inflicted pain for our entertainment!
I mean, Lemon isn't exactly a Borderlands challenge runner, so he will miss a lot of things that are obvious to those that are. Still tho. Spuddy crushed it!
BL1, my first borderlands game, looter shooter, and kind of RPG, played it on release and man...i gotta say this game is still pretty timeless, always enjoyable while being so simple
Surely, one attak per foe, but the one attack doesnt have to kill, just ignore them if you fail to kill them in a single hit, i know that wont apply to required kills, but it cuts down on map resets :3
It'd save a lot of time, in theory. But it raises the question. If I shoot someone, and they survive, is it still a one shot when they later die of old age?
Wanna let you know that when I saw this video, I audibly yelled, "SPUDDYYY! LET'S GOOOO!" I absolutely love your content and your personality in general; I even used your typical outro as the ending to a college paper of mine! But yeah, I just wanted to let you know that I love your stuff, and if no one's told you today, I hope YOU have a wonderful, wonderful rest of your day :]
Hey you can fix the memory leak by deleting every LOADING cutscene in the /movies folder (my comments before were getting auto deleted I think, do you have word filters?)
Thank you! And I do tend to have at least a few soulslikes on my list to play, Wo Long included. It's often more a case of figuring out when I'd like to, rather than if I will.
Just finished this game up. Really annoying having to restart every hour and a half with one of the best computers that the public can buy. Can't believe they just didn't care to fix the memory leak
You actually can launch Flynt into the death plane, it just requires a skullmasher with the jakobs xx material, which increases knockback. With that, by landing every pellet you can launch him off the oil rig from his spawn point.
What a coincidence, I'm drinking Monster Ultra Rosá rn, which for some fucking reason reminds me of this game. Probably drank it while playing it. Anyone else get that thing? Tasting something specific like a drink and get reminded of a game you played during consuming it?
Direct hex editing wasn't necessary, I'm pretty sure the application WillowTree, a save editor for Borderlands 1, has pretty much every functionality you might need. Maybe it doesn't have a few more obscure features one might want, but it has tons.
i also prefer a gun/ system you only have to shoot once, thats how mom did it, thats how dad did it, thats how America does it, and its worked out pretty good so far
You can one shot every main story boss with Revolver Mordecai with the exception of Rakk Hive and Destroyer. I will edit the post later with the math, but the most i was able to do to Destroyer a little more than 80000 damage. Unfortunately, Destroyer has 99500 health. See the calculations below Edit: Skills: 5 in Focus, 5 in Killer, 5 in Carrion Call, 5 in Tresspass, 5 in Gun Crazy, 8 in Deadly, 5 in Riotous Remedy, 9 in Relentless Gun: LVL 36 Pearl Chimera 639 with x4 Explosive Destroyer eye crit damage:5+1.25 ( from Deadly) (Damage Formula) Output = (((NormalHit *(1+ SpecMult) * CriticalHit) * ElemBonus) + SplashDamage) * TypeMod)) For easy calculations, I will exclude TypeMod, Splash Damage is just 100% of total damage before Crit and elemental bonus, GunCrazy will just be a 2x multiplier at the end (2 Bullets per shot from Mordecai Skill Tree) for Revolvers. This formula is a bit generalized but gets you close to the actual damage number Output = (((639 * (1+0.4+1.8) * 6.25) * 3) + 2045) * 2 Total Damage = 80770
I do have to wonder about the Destroyer's health. In a single damage proc, I was seeing up to around forty thousand with Bloodwing during testing, and it was barely even chipping the healthbar. Also, I wanted to avoid legendaries that are unreliable to get if I could help it. World drops in the first game were certainly a choice.
@SpuddyCube There is a cheat engine cheat table in Borderlands GOTY Enhanced that let's you look at enemy HP and other stats. I used it to help with testing different builds for one shot runs. I do understand not wanting to rely on World Drop weapons. That same Cheat Engine table has a script for hotkey rerolling shops instead of save quiting ( also if you run to the vehicle spawner in Fyrestone after doing the merchant of death exploit you can force a save). There are some other contenders like explosive Unforgiven or Anaconda. You can also go for a 3x Explosive Law which can one shot Mad Mel at LVL 37 as it doesn't need the Killer skill but does need 9 points in Relentless from the Gunslinger class mod. Overall, the rng required to get a oneshot with this setup isn't the worst, but not great. You have to get a 15% chance for the 3x explosive damage on top of a 45% chance for Gun Crazy on top of 25% chance for Relentless.
I forgot to mention you could try using the Violence legendary you get at the beginning of the game from the GOTY enhanced version. I haven't tested it, the only issue I can see is it being too low lvl so not enough damage
Can you beat Borderlands 2 while doing the alphabet challenge You have to use a gun that starts with an A after 1 kill switch to a gun that starts with B, then after that a gun that starts with a C, until you get to Z then you start at A again
Realistically, I only tended to need shotguns, survivability, or turret performance. There aren't enough points to do all of them at once, so I was usually sort of between a couple of builds. Leaving the points open meant I'd be able to change without going to a change station while in the field.
Well per the ending of the video we have to assume Roland went on to live a long happy peaceful life ending in old age with family and friends.

It doesnt work against Mad Mel due to the damage resist to melee

7:25 Oh my god...Spuddy actually promoting his stuff...*sniff* I am so proud
At this point, I'm going to be in trouble if I don't...
I think its super funny how Backlogs couldnt complete the challenge and Spuddy lists off a half dozen ways it could be done near the end lol
I mean, Lemon isn't exactly a Borderlands challenge runner, so he will miss a lot of things that are obvious to those that are. Still tho. Spuddy crushed it!
Spuddy > backlogs confirmed WOOOOP /j ALSO shun thy burst gun hate you have proven them to be superior :3
No, burst guns are icky!
Always love seeing new BL1 content. My personal favorite one.
Love the semantics of the chopper being used. Great run

I like how this came out immediately after the backlogs said he couldn’t do it.

huh, didnt know the color palet was based on mad max. that explains a lot. also hi spud, nice run, thuthu is pleased
