This type of video is exactly what I want, uncut Live on Twitch is okay, but a whole days worth of farming edited into 45 minutes to an hour is PERFECT! Presented very well too, showed the boss kill, then showed the loot, talked about it a bit, moved on. Great videos still popping out after all this time, ZiggyD ftw
ZiggyD Gaming For sure, I'd love to watch that xD my first playthrough I tried the farming method of Save/Quit to try and get his Shotgun, heard it's one of the best shotguns in the game. Just watched your golden chest video, if you're looking for a Shotgun still, that's a good idea!
Ever since BL The Pre Sequel, it seems you have been more comfortable with UA-cam. You are very funny and get straight to the point. Ty for this series/guides list and I wish the most of luck for you in the future :)
To answer your final question, I do enjoy occasional longer videos because I learn things that might not make it into a typical video. For example, dps calculation, Boss's melee pattern, boss's overcapped lvl, lvl 49 legendary result, etc. Glad you're covering borderlands Ziggy!
ZiggyD Gaming If edited well (like your vids are) a walkthrough can be really great. However, I imagine that most of the major content creators for BLPS will make walkthroughs. If you do one, I'd like to see you take a unique spin on it. For example, you could study up on Borderlands lore and give a bit of an extra explanation about what is happening and what we learn from each story mission (you could even skip all side missions for this style walkthrough). Another thing I would personally enjoy is an explanation of some of the Australian jokes and terms found in the game. And then of course, you could always do a challenge walkthrough (this may be better suited for specific missions) where you use a ridiculous build (shield nova claptrap) or a particular equipment setup (no shields).
Let me know if you guys enjoy this sort of longer-form content, it might be something I could do every few days or once a week (or every day if you guys love it). Pretty happy with this first set of boss farming runs, especially the ending :D
Sorry to comment again, I was just watching your other videos and I just wanted to say I really love this idea of 40 minutes of end game where you farm bosses and stuff it was really entertaining and I'd watch more! Looking forward to more videos from you, you're awesome.
Advice for any character needed focused dps, dahl lasers with railgun. The burst fire from aim down sights overrides fire rate up to 3x and is devastating during showdown.
great stuff dude, btw ur best best for killin this guy as fast as possible is prbly the laser u get from jack in last mission it does around 530% continuous dmg and has pretty high base dmg for a beam laser
I use cryo against him does well for me...this was also my first farm session when i hit level 50. thanks for the video, shed tons of light on grinding weapons. :)
hey ziggy, i enjoyed this very much! i try to tune in to your stream whenever i can, the problem is that i'm german, so you're literally on the opposite side of the world, so the times tend to be pretty late, and i can't really watch vods because twitch has yet to offer resolution options to vods, my internet sucks so i'd have to load a 3 hour vod for almost a whole day, the point i'm making is: MORE OF THIS PLEASE!
At 36:42 the weapon you place in the third slot determines what you get, since you placed a Tediore in that slot, that's what you got. Not 100% sure but that's how it works from what I understand.
if you try it out there are some absorb sheilds, the slows they have high caps and slow delay and the bullets fall at your feat it is cool and it adds more ammo then 1
Got a luneshine legendary jacobs pistol on my first legendary grind, it wasn't very good for my Nisha build but then grinded that and got a sweet legendary tediore similar to yours
I'd like to see how efficient farming the final boss compares in terms of loot! I'm sure you wouldn't get as much stuff per hour, but man does Iwajira get bland after a few runs...
You Should Use The IVF Its a legendary sub machine gun its pretty much a copy paste of the baby maker from borderlands 2.It can take out most enemies insanely quick by shooting a bullet reloading (tediore weapon; damage is based on ammo in clip when reloading).Also if you use claptrap he has a 200% explosion damage boost just to keep in mind *You get it from grinder,Its an orange* Loved the Video and you earned a new sub from me :)
fyi for a great shotgun for nisha at what ever level you are just hit new character in the home screen spam esc till your out then select your character you get the new character bonus (sorry you have to own the other games to do this idk which gives you the shotgun) and you get a shotgun pistol and 30 moonstone, both weapons are what ever level you are
Maybe someone can help me out... on my original playthrough, I admittedly didn't do a completonist run, and was about Lv. 26 when I finished. BUT all my weapons were utter rubbish, doing no more than about 200 damage. I'd had the same weapons for hours, nothing I found seemed to be any better. Also the grinder didn't work on any combos I put in there. Example, my oz kit was at highest 130 all the way through the game, it was the first one I got :/ so weird. Thoughts?
Not related to topic but can anyone explain the farming on this on which bosses do i save and quit to farm and which bosses do dashboard farm sorry been looking every where no one could answer this question but yet they had the weapons lol
also a fast easy way to get moonstones if u played bl1&2 go to new game skip the intro and when it pulls up the select a character screen back out and load your main character it will give u the 30 moonstones, the pistol and shotgun (at your lvl) then save quit and do it as many times as u want.
I'm loving the high attention to detail and precise calculations for bringing from hardcore D3 and PoE, something imo that Borderlands really lacks and needs to progress in becoming a better game, what are your opinions of damage mitigation and resistances in the game Z?
There's very little in the way of resistances and mitigation, some shields can give about 20% of it or 25%ish bullet absorbtion, which works like evasion as it's 100% mitigation. Survivability in this game mainly comes down to tactics and healing skills it seems.
Please give me a brief overview in terms of goodness of this game. Is there a ton of post story content, things to do, and things to farm. Of course being a BLs game there will most definitely be DLC but as far as the base game goes.
Story is slightly worse than the story of BL2 but the gameplay is more fun. Endgame it is the same as BL2 grinding gear and wishing you could kill Claptrap.
the claptrap build i use renders me almost completely invulnerable. the only thing i have found thus far that can truely take me down is my friends build for Wilhelm.
This type of video is exactly what I want, uncut Live on Twitch is okay, but a whole days worth of farming edited into 45 minutes to an hour is PERFECT!

Thanks man, appreciate the feedback. I'll definitely do some more. I think I might do some red & belly next as those runs are really fun!

Glad you're covering borderlands Ziggy!
Steve Funcke I think you're right, some of that stuff only comes up in more organic gameplay. I wonder if i should do a game walkthrough....

Do more, even if I don't watch it all, I still listen to it all.
This is amazing! Please make more longer videos like this!
Hey ziggy, loving the longer video format :)
cant get enough of BL:TPS! I love the longer videos!
I love longer videos almost as much as i love you :D
Honestly this was a very entertaining video! You did a great job 👏🏽
Sorry to comment again, I was just watching your other videos and I just wanted to say I really love this idea of 40 minutes of end game where you farm bosses and stuff it was really entertaining and I'd watch more! Looking forward to more videos from you, you're awesome.
I'll do another one soon! I want to get a new shotgun :D
Love the video man just started playing and love the fact that you actually show when you get down and sometimes die.
Advice for any character needed focused dps, dahl lasers with railgun. The burst fire from aim down sights overrides fire rate up to 3x and is devastating during showdown.
I liked the longer video. Was interesting watching the experiments with the various guns :)
This was great! really enjoyed watching, was fun seeing the progressive upgrades throughout the video.
love finding new UA-camrs who are fun to watch. and yes love the long vids 👌
I'd like to see this sort of content maybe once or twice in the weekends
I thought this was awesome! Great stuff Ziggy!
the glitch with the reload animation and the hand works with claptrap too if you throw a grenade whilst funzerking pretty fun for melee
Just what I wanted to watch tonight. Perfect timing!
I love these long videos since I do other things while watching youtube so these are great!
He never throws the legendary far from his death spot. It is always in/around the spot where most of the loot goes.(where he died)
Ziggy i have to admit this was amazing
Nice work. Great video. Really enjoy it, so keep it up mate :)
Great vid. The bit on the grinder was really helpfull. I don't use that enough. Think I will on the next run though. Cheers
Just came across your videos and you do a good job man, funny to listen to and you give good insight. keep it up :)
great stuff dude, btw ur best best for killin this guy as fast as possible is prbly the laser u get from jack in last mission it does around 530% continuous dmg and has pretty high base dmg for a beam laser
You can't go wrong with a bit of science at the end of a video :D
Ziggy, for jakobs, bind fire to mousewheelup or mouse wheel down, that way you dont break your mouse or fingers
love the longer videos hope to see more.
I use cryo against him does well for me...this was also my first farm session when i hit level 50. thanks for the video, shed tons of light on grinding weapons. :)
Yeah i really enjoyed the longer video and the boss farming
hey ziggy, i enjoyed this very much! i try to tune in to your stream whenever i can, the problem is that i'm german, so you're literally on the opposite side of the world, so the times tend to be pretty late, and i can't really watch vods because twitch has yet to offer resolution options to vods, my internet sucks so i'd have to load a 3 hour vod for almost a whole day, the point i'm making is: MORE OF THIS PLEASE!
This was cool , maybe some tips on grinding shields and how to calculate damage like you did.
At 36:42 the weapon you place in the third slot determines what you get, since you placed a Tediore in that slot, that's what you got. Not 100% sure but that's how it works from what I understand.
Just noticed it was actually a Maliwan so I was wrong.
That was fun. You should definitely make more! :)
if you try it out there are some absorb sheilds, the slows
they have high caps and slow delay and the bullets fall at your feat it is cool and it adds more ammo then 1
New subscriber here! I subbed because you sound and seem just like the nicest dude and it's refreshing and I liked this video :D
G'day and welcome! Appreciate the subscription, will be awesome to have you around for future videos.
Please do more of this kind of videos! :D
That was a really nice video, Thx Ziggy .
Great video :) even though i almost cried because you said dps sooo much
Pro tip: Check all practical shops each run when farming. I've found both celestial lawbringer and enforcer on my runs ;)
The one thingy was lv48 that's why it turned out to be a lv49 at the end
I'm actually totally okay with them bringing the gunerang back because this time the reload effect is actually usable!
the reason why the clean shooterrang came back with level 49 was beacuse the reved up thingy was a level 48
it was a awesome video keep up the great videos
Handsome collection was 15 dollars on steam today so now I'm apparently gonna get back into borderlands
I use Wilhelm and use the machine sniper, honestly pop saints overcharge and the fire rate is amazing, kills iwajira in like 15 seconds
I enjoy videos like these!
Got a luneshine legendary jacobs pistol on my first legendary grind, it wasn't very good for my Nisha build but then grinded that and got a sweet legendary tediore similar to yours
Thanks for the math lesson. I mean it. I now know how to calculate DPS.
Good video informative,interesting and good grinding info
If you kill a badass tork or a higher u can get the rolling thunder grenade mod
You can kill him as level 28-32 Melee Athena w/healing shield, but killed/farmed w/o healing shield
I know this was created a long time ago but Nisha is the best character to snipe with because of her activation trait.
Very much enjoyed it, thanks for the video.
the jakobs pistol is extremely good if you can tap fast enough
I'd like to see how efficient farming the final boss compares in terms of loot! I'm sure you wouldn't get as much stuff per hour, but man does Iwajira get bland after a few runs...
Agreed
You Should Use The IVF Its a legendary sub machine gun its pretty much a copy paste of the baby maker from borderlands 2.It can take out most enemies insanely quick by shooting a bullet reloading (tediore weapon; damage is based on ammo in clip when reloading).Also if you use claptrap he has a 200% explosion damage boost just to keep in mind
*You get it from grinder,Its an orange*
Loved the Video and you earned a new sub from me :)
i enjoyed this content. Especially if there are Epic Fails involved :P
if you do a mission. for pickle you get a laser that does plus 214% damage bonus
But what is the skill that allows you to do telekinetic reloading?? I'm doing Nisha and I can't find that skill.
Is there any other way of spawning this boss quicker? I've gone from place to place too make it spawn but still doesn't.... :(
i farmed the level 30 version of this monster 12 times and did not get one legendary drop. very annoying
fyi for a great shotgun for nisha at what ever level you are just hit new character in the home screen spam esc till your out then select your character you get the new character bonus (sorry you have to own the other games to do this idk which gives you the shotgun) and you get a shotgun pistol and 30 moonstone, both weapons are what ever level you are
you can see me use it in my only vid (i think i might have 2 more random) on my channel you can see the stats of it at the end (its only 2:30)
Great for watching while farming.
i just killed felicity and in one of the chests that opens i found a orange shotgun named sledge's Shotty.
try the doppelganger class in the character selection menu
Maybe someone can help me out... on my original playthrough, I admittedly didn't do a completonist run, and was about Lv. 26 when I finished.
BUT all my weapons were utter rubbish, doing no more than about 200 damage. I'd had the same weapons for hours, nothing I found seemed to be any better. Also the grinder didn't work on any combos I put in there.
Example, my oz kit was at highest 130 all the way through the game, it was the first one I got :/ so weird.
Thoughts?
use maliwan lasers with nishas action skill, so you deal alot of damage during the laser phase.
One of the thing was lvl 48 that why you only got a lvl 49 legendary from the grinder
I enjoyed it, specially since I can't follow you doing things on twitch. plz more
ole thorny. (the lazer u get from jack after u beat the vault boss ) is great to use against this boss
Isn't it ol'rosie?
yea my bad
Mice vid! Just subbed!
Only odjurymir spawns for me and iwajira won't, is iwajira like a dlc boss?
The ZX-1 dropped for me at Zarpedon after I killed the robotsuit. ^^
BTW Ziggy, the reason the pistol you got was level 48 was because that was the level of the Rev'dUp Thingy
Matthias 3110 Ah unlucky, I didn't notice that. I wonder why it was 48 from a 52 boss?
ya i tired doing that with a vehicle.. but theres a invisible wall whihcis wierd lol
2 thingys have went into the roof while I was farming today .-.
very nice video, love it.
Not related to topic but can anyone explain the farming on this on which bosses do i save and quit to farm and which bosses do dashboard farm sorry been looking every where no one could answer this question but yet they had the weapons lol
question tho ? why vladof guns their so inacurate
or did you find a set with high accuracy?
Have you farmed Nel yet? He drops the skullmasher every other time I kill him so he's really good to get spare legendaries for the grinder. :D
also a fast easy way to get moonstones if u played bl1&2 go to new game skip the intro and when it pulls up the select a character screen back out and load your main character it will give u the 30 moonstones, the pistol and shotgun (at your lvl) then save quit and do it as many times as u want.
I'm loving the high attention to detail and precise calculations for bringing from hardcore D3 and PoE, something imo that Borderlands really lacks and needs to progress in becoming a better game, what are your opinions of damage mitigation and resistances in the game Z?

More of these pls !
Hey there i rewatched it and one of the thingys was lvl 48
Yes do it every once and a while
@21:20 that music :D
Xbox 360 TITAN BOY 523 I have a vladof assault rifle that's a fire etech
i kill the lv30 one with a laser i got from a mission (under lv15) with around 450 laser bullets (its a fire lasser) (i farmed when i was around lv27)
I can telekeneticly reload my guns as claptrap when I exit funzerker mode.
I can confirm the zx-1 for zarpadon, no proof other then the gun though
Wouldnt he still take the base damage of the Rocket Launcher?
Hey where can i find the recipes u used for loot grinder are there anymore of them or did u show us all?
This is what I have so far: docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WHidSfCNzO0Z9Mamd0_UBjudhrCZ_WOjxA-p0GzcOWo/edit#gid=1326344343
I love oz kits that give +x% damage to melee while airborne.
do it like diablo and put a marker on the map when a legendary spawns
Please give me a brief overview in terms of goodness of this game. Is there a ton of post story content, things to do, and things to farm. Of course being a BLs game there will most definitely be DLC but as far as the base game goes.
Virtually the same as BL2 pre-DLC. The endgame is mainly farming for legendaries, completing badass challenges and leveling other characters.
Story is slightly worse than the story of BL2 but the gameplay is more fun. Endgame it is the same as BL2 grinding gear and wishing you could kill Claptrap.
just remember when they raise the level cap everything below orange is worthless
the claptrap build i use renders me almost completely invulnerable. the only thing i have found thus far that can truely take me down is my friends build for Wilhelm.
Try to grind for the frakker it able to one hit em if you get a good one m8
A corrosive immunity shield goes a LONG way for this boss, just putting it out there.
I had farmed to many times in a row and it signs me out. Do I have to wait a few minutes after every time I kill it?
Great video as always lol
Btw do you plan on playing walkthroughs of other characters? Like Wilhelm or Athena?
I enjoyed it!
I really enjoyed it.
