Borderlands 2: Buffed Triquetra- Better than Quad?!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 жов 2024
- The Triquetra is a unique Jakobs shotgun that is available as a quest reward during the Clan Wars saga. It has a very unique firing pattern that causes the scattershot to take the shape of a symmetrical triangle ornament, called a Triquetra. This is sometimes called a Celtic Trinity Knot.
This spread is very desirable for a shotgun, because it makes hitting critical hits more consistent than with a randomly distributed shotgun spread.
Before the community patch, this weapon had its damage slightly lowered to compensate for the better accuracy. The community patch removes this damage penalty and makes the weapon even more competitive with a Quad, traditionally the best non elemental Jakobs shotgun.
The damage still has less potential than a quad at point blank range, but the Triquetra is more consistent at pretty much every other range. It is a very strong and consistent weapon after the community patch, and it definitely doesn't suck. I'd say it's a very high tier shotgun.
I am playing with the community patch which can be found here: mentalmars.com...

Actually the Hydra does have one pellet more than the Triquetra. Of course you can argue that
a) It doesn't make a big difference because compared to the Hydra the Triquetra will get a lot more pellets in due to the difference in spread pattern
b) The Hydra is a DLC gun meaning that the Triquetra does at least have the highest pellet count in the vanilla game and did have the highest overall projectile count until the Big Game Hunt DLC was released.
I'll go with B! :)

Get the f-ck out. Nobody falls for that scam trash and it isnt welcome here.
Darthplagueis13 the hydra is basically 5 of shotgun barrels aimed in 5 directions as Triquetra is a 5 barreled shotgun that aims in one direction so they fit different needs the hydra is good agents 5 enemies in 5 exact angles and the triquetra is better at basically everything else
Mary Wright How do you feel about Sal?
This community patch is putting you in a really good mood lately
Not That Guy it's a really good patch. What gearbox should've done from the beginning
It's so much nicer to play with. So many good changes. The only one I don't agree with is making literally ALL of Zero's cosmetics available in Bad-Maw's loot pool. Kinda devalues them
Easy coooooonteeeeentttt!!!
Kaine Peterson you can opt that out with filtertool
Judah Mitchell I wouldn't. I've gotten a bunch of skins and heads I never would have gotten before
The patch really seemed to breath new life in the game for you. A couple months back the last time you uploaded was (at that time) ten months before, now your uploading regularly again. It's good to see that the players haven't forgotten the game exists, even if the devs have.
0002niarDneK as much fun as this game is there still only so much you can do. Especially it being a couple of years old and him really only playing zero so other characters takes away from what he can do.
Hey Luke, I just learned (almost 800 hours into BL2, mostly Zer0) that the blue canister that pops out of the top of EXP Loaders when they're charging has a 6x crit multiplier instead of the normal 2x. It might still be better to shoot at the hips when they're charging so I'm not sure if you knew that already.
Wow!
Public Service Announcement: *The Triquestra gets the tightest possible pellet spread with the Jakob's scope and ADS.*
In fact, this is true for many shotguns. Not all -- in my testing, one exception was the Octo -- but most have unlisted-on-the-card accuracy bonus when scoped / aiming down sight with the Jakob's scope.
Other scopes also change the pellet spread, and it DOES NOT scale with the zoom factor (as you might think would be logical). The Hyperion scope -- which has a higher zoom than Jakob's -- also tightens the spread, but less than the Jakob's scope. The Tediore scope (better zoom than Bandit scope and iron sights) makes the pellet spread worse! Iron-sights, Bandit scope, and Torgue sight all the have hte same pellet spread when ADS -- better than Tediore, worse than Hyperion and Jakobs.
I suspect this is a bug in the game.
I've done some preliminary testing with SMGs, and I'm finding there's also a difference in accuracy between their scope brands. However, it's not as severely noticeable as it is with the Triquestra, I suspect beacuse the Triquestra has that fixed spread pattern.
So this could be a thing with all the weapons in BL2.
I tested in the Dust, shooting at the car crusher's back-wall; it guaranteed I was always the same distance from the target surface as I tested.
The triquetra actually did manage to pull off over 21mil damage on that dummy at 14:35, which was more than the quad did. A really solid weapon.
Thank you Luke, Very Cool!
Thanks Kany-kevin! Very cool
Thanks Kanye! Very Cool!
Triquetra, Hydra, and the Orphan Maker are the three deadliest shotguns on Deputy Sal.
Hey :) watching from France so sorry for my bad English.
I’ve been watching your stuff for 2 years already and I’m happy to see you grow. You look more confident and it feels like you enjoy making these videos more at the same time. Keep the good work dude you’re awesome ;)
Hi I have questions which wan is better without community pach quad or triquetra please answer?🙏🙏🙏🙏
lol when he is activating the community patch you can see joltz doing the 1 life maya
Alex Max joltz liked fiber before joltz himself was a semi large borderlands UA-camr lmao.
cool, didn't know that, but how does that change my point?
Elycius huh
I love this series so much
Why does this one look like Hyperion grip? Your last test of the Triquerta had the Jakobs grip pictured in the thumbnail, this one looks like Hyperion but I see the stats on the card are identical though...
it's so fucking nice se ya back to YT, you're the best BD2 content producer here.
This is one of my favorite videos of yours I think. A lot happened in this video lol.
Hey, Fiber I was wonder who your second favorite character in bl2 is?
He has previously said that either Maya or Axton are very close to his second favorite. I believe he may have mentioned that some of the changes in the ucp are making Axton a bit better? But that could have just been me realizing that a lot of changes in the ucp are very kind to Axton.
>akschually hydra has the highest pellet count in the game
Someone will probably say this in comments apart from me
MainS but it aint very good
Yep, I was gonna say that
Angel Ramirez Deputy Salvador might say something different. Offhand hydra with moneyshot is bananas at "In your face" range.
Lizardnix oh u forgot about deputy salvador. Can you kill hyperious with the hydra and antagonist.
you can do that with any shotgun, iirc. The hydra is just the most consistent because of the higher pellet count
How does it compare to the Coach gun?
The triquetra can spawn with the rustlers prefix?
Did they buff the hydra enough to make it viable?
What about The emperor? Did it get a buff?
17:47 aren't grim and fearless supposed to be swapped in the ucp?
Only if you want to apply that nerf.
wait that's a nerf? doesn't fearless go much better with roid shields and by turn melee builds?
I didn't even realize it was buffed on the patch. I always liked the weapon and used it over bushwacks.
At 5:51, how did you only do 45 damage there?
He is using a lvl 1 pimpernell to slag enemies
Are you going to be making more Monkey Island videos? I personally loved them, but if you grew bored or just don't want to make them I understand.😁
With Salvador, this shotgun is also good due to moneyshot as well
These reviews are my favorite part of the day.
So now that he doesn’t upload how you gonna enjoy your day? But seriously tho like what actually happened to this guy
I have no idea
Doesnt the hydra also have a similar amount of pellets?
alec157 - yes it does
It actually does have one more.
If you put all hyperion parts on a Bushwack it's actually quite accurate
I believe it is Tri-Quetra - as in "wet" - the short "E" vowel sound. But, who cares right? It still rocks!
0:33 Thats the stock, and its a hyperion stock, the grip is the thing under the barrel where you hold your hand. I know, shotgun parts doesnt make much sense...
This one of few reasons I dont play with Community patch because sometimes they buff weapons they don't need too
Nice. This gives me reason to remind people that Hydra is underrated af. With Doc's it has highest damage from all Jakobs shotguns. But the range thou.
It has a lot of potential but in practice just gets outclassed by other shotguns because the projectile spread means you won't even come close to hitting all of your pellets unless you essentially hug your enemy.
Darthplagueis13 That's the only downside. Tanky build or Zer0's Deception can help with that. But talking about Deputy Sal with Hydra, that's kinda pointless, most of shotguns that can crit are good on him.
Květoslav Zelený anything is good on Sal
How about the Stinger Seraph?
Anyone know what skin he has?
That thing is godlike
I love when he says "Alriiiight". I'm not sure why lol

I might be wrong, but I always avoided Two Fang as it just seemed like a skill that would waste ammo.
It might be the opposite, but I never saw any reason to use it.
If there is a reason, I would like to know what is useful about it because I seriously struggle to see a reason to spec into it.
Mikasa Ackerman Dps mainly
Especially for certain weapons
It increases your effective fire-rate which in turn increases your DPS. It isn't a waste of ammo when you are expecting to waste a magazine on an enemy anyway, Two Fang just helps you empty that magazine much faster. However I do agree that on 1/2 shot kill weapons it can potentially waste ammo.
Mikasa Ackerman How can you not see what's useful about it? 0_o
Shooting twice is essentially increasing the dps your doing. In a way, it's increasing your rate of fire
Depends a bit on the kind of gun you are using I guess. It's mainly a good skill for Shotgun Zer0 because you typically get a lot rate of fire, high damage and because of the spread it doesn't matter too much if the recoil throws you off. For sniping builds I wouldn't really recommand it because the sniper ammo pool is rather limited and you are likely to miss that second shot because of said recoil anyways. It's generally kinda nice to have on Jakobs weapons because they are semi-automatic whereas it is pretty much useless on most Vladov guns because it doesn't proc if your rate of fire is higher than ten anyways.
A gun that didn’t need a buff gets a buff
IM COMPLETELY FINE WITH THIS :D
14:35 21million damage shot by Triquetra
Use it on Salvador and spec for filled to the brim and inconceivable
(Try-ket-tra) triqeutra ish wicked shotgun
I was going to comment about the pronunciation early in the video, but I stopped before he apologized. I did not want to be shit on by luke. Luke is a savage in the comments.
I don't know what had me laughing harder, butchering "Triquetra" or navigating the conveyor belts in the tundra express
Tree-ke( e as in blend )-tà( the a is pronunced as neolatine does )
When you circled the grip of the shotgun u were circling it’s stock and not it’s grip...
This triggers me
Even more as I THINK the stock was Hyperion.
Techhunter Talon it is
don’t forget the shoutout my guy
Lol I didn’t know people still played borderlands 2 in 2018, nice video though
I love how players ignore that grip and hold the gun with that grip going thrue their hand
cheers pal
KEL-TICK
Was that joltz doing his 1 life maya stream
Says jacobs grip while circling the hyperion stock
Your slagging issues may very well have to do with Vel0city causing the split to happen above the enemy
the treyarch symbol
I love the triquetra it's probably my favorite shotgun also I believe triquetra is pronounced "Try-ket-ra"
You'd be wrong! It's from Latin, so if you want to be really pedantic, it should be "tree-kweh-trah"
But officially, the English pronunciation is "tri-kweh-truh"
Michael Meissner
I always hated how it's supposed to be pronounced because of the 'kweh' in the middle. I think 'tri- keh-tra' sounds better.
WRONG
Dr Bright one can't have a wrong opinion. At least in this case
You're fine to think tri-keh-tra sounds better, but that's still a wrong pronunciation
skip to 16:00 if you want to see buffed gun in action
Tri-catchra
I've heard 4 ways to say it now. Looking it up
Ok its pronounced TRI-KWEH-TRA
Credit to Emma saying
Triquetra=tri-kweh-truh
Not triqweeta
Not triqarta
Not tricetchra
TRI-KWEH-TRUH
triqueta
Good man! But a fun fact, if used as the plural of triquetrum (medical), Luke's pronunciation is acceptable.
I've always felt it's pronounced tree-ket-truh
Triquertra in the thumbnail btw
Triqueetra < Triketra
Nice
Lol joltz playing 1-life siren on your menu
>A hat in the feather
I don't know why this makes me so mad
my only regret is that i was not sooner.
it never sucked to begin with as far as im concerned
A hat in the feather, you say? 😂
You should have compared it to a coach gun because of the higher accuracy.
Enoel Gutierrez well he compared it because it has 3 barrels and the coach gun only has 2
yeet n skeet
*try-qwe-tra
tri·què·tra
Satchmo
I always pronounced it as
Try-ke-tra
ua-cam.com/video/TL2IGsJN_6Q/v-deo.html&vl=en-US
latin name, therefore the letters are pronounced as they are written, and 'I' is pronounced 'I' not AY, ( the I as in the word 'Interest') God english not being a phonetic language really is a barrier, well whatever, I'm not really bothered how people pronounce it, but ehy, the more you know I guess
It hurt me every time he said the name
Triqueetra
Do one on the Lady Fist! Obviously it doesn't suck but I wanna see it anyway :)
There's no reason to, the Lady Fist is one of the most powerful pistols in the game. The point of this series is for overlooked and underused weapons.
Time to be a pedant:
At least as I was taught for choral singing, the Latin pronunciation of Triquetra would be "tree-kweh-trah".
But despite its Latin roots, this is English, and the official pronunciation is "tri-kweh-truh".
Also, if used as the plural of "triquetrum" (as in the triquetral bone), then Luke's pronunciation is right.
Sauce: part past experience, part Google.
You say relatively relatively often
I thought it was pronounced like tri-ket-ra
I have a lot of human skin
Canser Sock same
Good
Wassup.
Hydra > Triquetra
Jaum VR orphan maker>all
It’s pronounced tri-ke-tra
ez overwatch win
Wtf is a community patch? Is this a computer cheat hack?
It's a mod that helps improve Bl2 by buffing gear and characters that were subpar and giving drops to legendaries that were too hard to get.
Try keh truh
tri kay tra
Tri-Ket-Ra Molmf, if you finally want to know how to pronounce it haha
ooof
Logan oofed i am ashamed of the fact that you are a bl2 fan smh
Lol it looks like a donk

Why is your pronunciation of everything always all over the place
He's actually very close to correct. According to any English dictionary, it's pronounced as "try-kweh-truh". But if used as the plural of triquetrum, his pronunciation is acceptable.
