Killer tip! So you do NOT want a Planetoid like the display at 2:45 ? I understand your equipped weapon gives URad, but couldn't the relifact be any other element? Why not shock?
Yeah it needs to be of the stone good catch lol! I leave shock out just incase u do another build using the re-volter so it will work with this build but its nice to have options. Edit: pinning this because it was good questions.
another tip, if you want even more then a Guardian Angel shotgun with URAD will get a bit more since the Guardian Angel passively increases the amount of eridium you get too
@@D3V1LM0NK3Ythat’s just a passive bonus of the weapon, similar to how the emp-5 or whatever increases your running speed. It’s a reference to Angel in Borderlands 2, surviving off of eridium
I'm SO excited about this! Your instructions were very clear, it wasnt bad to farm at all and I just got started punching rocks! Perfect anoints on everything here I come!! Ok so two updates... 1) you actually get a silver trophy for smashing the invisible stacks! 2) just found out how depressingly fast you burn through this stuff trying to get specific anoints. Better find myself a good audiobook cause Im gonna end up needing enough eridium to buy a turd farm.
Cheers for that, still works. A single go at those piles gives me around 240 eridium So far I'd relied on random piles, lootsplosion modifier on mayhem and maybe doing the dailies in vault card, it's an ok source, but not if you need a lot of this stuff 😅
I could be wrong, but i believe this should also work with the "on action skill end, gain 50% (element) damage" annoint that you can get on the shield and a grenade, as long as they're all different elements
I’m not sure if the following will work, but I think the following setup could maximize the potential eridium drops: Guardian angel with URAD anoint Front loader with ASE (fire, cryo, corrosion) Any grenade with an ASE element not being used by the above 2 And finally a stone relifact with the final missing element Theoretically should give a melee attack all the elements (especially if using Zane to trigger ASE to keep the 10 second timer up)
Guardian angel with a stone planetoid of any but shock element, then ASE elemtal damage on shield and grenade will give 4 elements plus GA's with the most stuff you can get
Nice video!❤ To break the invisible eridium pile you have to bought the directors cut dlc. And if you are on console, connect a second controller to make a local coop session to double the rates 👍
I saw a informative void in bl3 content that's what sparked me to make a UA-cam channel. I'm still learning and forget shit but I try and show where and how I get things that aren't obvious. Because for every 1 person like us who will look at Reddit and Google there are 10 that just want to watch a video and know what just happend.
I just returned to BL3 after leaving from launch. Am I dumb but why do you need the legendary gear to hit the Eridium stones? Does higher damage make the stone spit out more Eridium?
Dang, thats a great tip to check all the gun drops when farming. If all you need the gun for is the eridian farm it doesnt have to be an amazing one. Thanks!
@@mrkthmn yea as long as you're not actually looking for the gun it will drop. As soon as you set out to find a gun with the rad on it you'll never find it lol
@@bigbenplaysgames ……oh….. well if you ‘Scuse me my good sir, I have to go scream in some random restaurant’s walk-in cooler and switch to M11 after. Good day, Sir!
Would a theoretical maximum be Cryo Amara with Illuminated Fist using a Static Shock (Fire/Corrosive)stone holding a URAD Guardian 4N631 and wearing a Frontloader?
I don't really understand how Front Loader, Planetoid and Urad help u with eridium quantity. Can someone explain? Is it some hidden property of this items?
Simple answer we are stacking as many different types of elements per melee swing as possible which increases how much each node gives. Im pretty sure someone left a detailed reason as to why it works in the comments but thats the jist.
@@bigbenplaysgames Thanks, now I understand it a bit better) Couldn't find an explanation on wiki or other sources (read all comments here and didn't see it too, maybe I missed sth). Edit: oh, found a comment that explains that more elements on melee counts as more melees
As long as it's an artifact that says imbue melee with (insert element) it will work just fine. Just don't double up an element like rad. Happy holidays!
It needs both, anything but Radiation or Shock. The whole strategy is to stack as many elements onto your melee as you can which will increase the eridium gain for each.
@michaelhun9775 in Mayhem Mode, it is one of the modifiers you can select. It grants 10% chance of a bunch of loot being dropped upon kill, and a critical hit kill 100% guarantees a bunch of loot. The higher the Meyhem level, the more loot dropped.
If you were like me and played alot of world of warcraft where item level was kinda important just throw that out the window. Bl3 item levels mean basically nothing. Just make sure your on the right mayhem level and check loot lemon for its drop chance. If your getting into God roll drop chance we'll thats math and I don't know it lol.
@@bigbenplaysgames there's an achievement for a beating the storyline on mayhem 10 or 11. If i switch mahem levels to accomplish this, will it invalidate my mahem 10 or 11 playthrough?
Slaughter shaft is better Isn’t it. Play 4 rounds and just farm the mini boss for 500e every kill? Kill the boss and down yourself then restart the round.
So I would say no I tested this and you have to take into account the time to get to the last boss also instead of just jumping in and going after swapping a few items. But even removing that as a factor it takes me 45seconds on a 13700k and 4070 so including loading screens to make 600 eridium. Edit: if you notice in the beginning I said while fucking off watching a podcast but if you pound it out head to head this method would beat that one every time.
So by adding different elements to your melee attack it counts as another hit for each different element you have. So it's almost like your hitting the node 5 times instead of once.
very nice farm. or you can join me when I do my lobbies. I drop 200k eridium per stream when I do 3. I also drop diamond keys, heads and skins, modded AND legit weapons. Keep up the great work. I like the edits. I'll drop a sub.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 just get an M10 weapond run any of the slaughter shaff its 500 per match in an hour you'll get way more..... or just kill only the boss collect the 500 respond and start of the round... Nice video bro make another..
Dude just reposted K6's video😂 so you're posting stuff people already did to try and build your own status. Find your own stuff homie, this cracked me up though
You might want to rewatch that bud he doesn't use urad or the front loader or even the same artifact and this is more per node hit than his. Thanks for the comment tho :) edit: Or mayhem switching

Thank you 🙏 Still works as of 3/27/24, way more efficient than K6's video. You're the best
This is my favorite eridium farm too i had never thought to use mayhem swapping to make it even faster, Thanks for the guide!
I honestly read about the switching thing from a reddit thread so I was like damn I gotta try that.

You could do more with revolter and guardian angel but this is a base game guide. Ill prob make an all DLC one later after some more research into it.

Cool, good to know. I always thought you have to buy the DLC.
@@hawkmah8888dlc 6 gives you something to see the invisible eridium piles, but you don’t need it to break them, they still exist before it.
here before your channel blows up. thank you for still uploading this game 🙏
Thanks! I love these games so I hope I can always get an audience with them.
I found a different Relic to use during this method great video man this was very helpful
me when im a chad and use Dimond keys to get the front loader so i can avoid talking to ava
This explanation completely convinced me to subscribe 😁👍
I'm glad you enjoyed it. Thank you very much for subbing
another tip is on mayhem 9 it gives 180% as to mayhem 11 only give 100% more eridium
If you use Zanes SNTNL with the Bad Dose skill augment it will help to highlight the invisible piles :)
Something I love about BL3 is that I have the majority of these items just sittin in my damn bank 😂
Hell yeah I love the huge bank in bl3.😀
Cool Guide for such a small UA-camr! Wouldve been awesome to see the Map to where Tina stands for example but otherwise really helpfull, will try :D

Thanks bro , saved a lot time
Great video. If I might make a suggestion, your outro music ramps up in volume quite a bit, which is hard on headphones wearers.
I'll keep that in mind 👍 I'll start running the outro at a lower Max. Thanks for the feedback😀
Shot bro. new sub.
this is awesome thanks bro
Funny. This is dooable, but those annointments for any weapons are rare, so it will take a lot of farming to get them. But it does work.
Took me foever to farm the relic but got super lucky and a gun with the rad annoitment dropped from one off the skags .
Dang, thats a great tip to check all the gun drops when farming. If all you need the gun for is the eridian farm it doesnt have to be an amazing one. Thanks!
@@mrkthmn yea as long as you're not actually looking for the gun it will drop. As soon as you set out to find a gun with the rad on it you'll never find it lol
1:14 where’s the part before this where you find beans
Great tip with the element stacking man! Thanks! Tho shouldn’t u switch between mayhem 10 and 9 because 9 says it gives u more eridium than 11?
It’s bugged you get the same amount in M10-M11
What is the ideology behind the increased eridium drops? More radiation/overall elemental Meleee damage produces more eridium?
The more different types of elements you can stack on each melee swing the more you get per hit. The DLC video I make soon will be even more per hit.
It adds more hits to your melee so it procs the rock cracking multiple tomes
If you’re Mayhem switching wouldn’t it make sense to just switch between 10 and 9?
M10 says +200% M9 is +180%
M11 says it’s +100%
The M11 tooltip is wrong m11 and 10 have the exact same rewards.
@@bigbenplaysgames ……oh….. well if you ‘Scuse me my good sir, I have to go scream in some random restaurant’s walk-in cooler and switch to M11 after.

So do you need the planetoid? If you had a cryo stone and the urad annoit with the front loader is that not the same? Or does melee damage matter

Happy holidays!
Merry Christmas!
Does the planetoid have to be the one that imbues yours melee like that one specifically??
i think so because youre not targeting an "enemy" when farming eridium
Does it need to be just a commander planetoid or does it also need a stone prefix?
It needs both, anything but Radiation or Shock. The whole strategy is to stack as many elements onto your melee as you can which will increase the eridium gain for each.
How are you changing mayhem levels without a reload of the area?
It does reload just cut it out in editing, its the fact that its only 1 loading screen instead of 2 that makes it faster
I onow im a little lat but are you able to use any from of the front loader or do les it have to have an element
any form is fine, just using it to keep your health below 50%
Mysterious Amulet from Ava dlc spawns more eridium clusters. Also more eridium per break
it doesn't spawn more just makes the invisible ones visible I'm pretty sure
@@papichulo3044 When you pick up a crystal, it gives you a chance for the count as 2 or 3 per crystal.
Yeah but can you get a stone version of that artifact?
Does Lewtsplotion help increase the chances that Beans and Sheega drop the required items? (I keep getting the Rear Ender lol)
I do not believe lootsplosion helps with dedicated drops how ever it is a world drop so... maybe?
What is lootsplosion? Just picked the game back up and haven't play since the initial release
@michaelhun9775 in Mayhem Mode, it is one of the modifiers you can select. It grants 10% chance of a bunch of loot being dropped upon kill, and a critical hit kill 100% guarantees a bunch of loot. The higher the Meyhem level, the more loot dropped.
Does the muse stack with the extra skill point in illuminated fist?
I'm actually not sure right off hand but maybe you'll get lucky and a viewer would know.
Dose any front loader work or just that one cause I’ve got 4 front loaders but not there one you have
Yeah the front loader is just there to keep your hp low enough to make urad anointment work constantly.
@@bigbenplaysgames damn I got 20 of them tryna get the same one as you
Well shit... That blows my noob as a youtuber is showing sorry I didn't explain it 😔
Why don't u open the map so we can see
I’ve got about 250,000 just from playing the game and not using them much.
That'll change if you want to go into end game farming. Your Eridium goes fast re-rolling gear anointments for your builds.
Does the item level effect the drop rate?
If you were like me and played alot of world of warcraft where item level was kinda important just throw that out the window. Bl3 item levels mean basically nothing. Just make sure your on the right mayhem level and check loot lemon for its drop chance. If your getting into God roll drop chance we'll thats math and I don't know it lol.
And I still didn’t get digi clone ammo regen annointment
OMG I know what you mean I dumped so much eridium just to get it on my magnificent !
I just bought this game and I’m on ps5 I was wondering if anybody wanted to play.
Somebody play with this person!
You could also just turn on another controller and double your overall eridium as well😂
Dude I heard this about console I'd be jelly of we couldn't just download a save editor.
Fantastic guide bro. The volume of your voice is just way too low, but it's a well made video otherwise
Does mayhem switching break my run from getting a completed mayhem 10 0r 11 run?
I'm not 100% sure what your asking. I could just be being dumb as normal.
@@bigbenplaysgames there's an achievement for a beating the storyline on mayhem 10 or 11. If i switch mahem levels to accomplish this, will it invalidate my mahem 10 or 11 playthrough?

So it's almost like your hitting the node 5 times instead of once.
How did you pick up the erosion so fast it takes so long for me to
Yah well the first shield took me about 20 tries, nice thing is he always drops and many were annointed trevonators.
What if The Planetoid Is for Corrosive But My Weapon Does not Have Corrosive Element Will The Stat Work?
Yep that will work as long as it's different elements your good to go.
@@bigbenplaysgames thank You For Replying
Is it patched
wanted to add, it might be better to do mayhem 9/10 reloads cause it goes between 180% and 200% instead of 200% and 100% for 10 and 11
I think everything is the same from 10 to 11. I know it says things are halved, but I think it is just lying to you.
This is true^^^@@noahhendrix3498
