Ive seen this guy maybe 5 times total in my thousands of hours of playing BL2. Almost every time I see him he's up at the steps at the edge of sanctuary on the north west side right before you get to the garage.
@@pqvz there's certain places he spawns so checking them all every so often ups your odds. But it's very rare. I've seen him a handful of times but never got a legendary from him.
@@EliteNugz We used to grind him when bored, we even had optimized routes to check all his possible locations. I think there are seven possible locations, and he spawns around 1/10 times? It's been a while, those numbers might be wrong.
In the early days he always spawned in Sanctuary before it goes airborne. After some time they patched it to a 10% chance but many people do not have the time or sanity to check all of Sanctuary for him as he has insanely low chances at giving anything really good. (None to about 1% for any legendaries)
Back when I was starting my adventure with borderlands games I was hyped to see him in sanctuary. Now that I moved onto farming uniques & legendaries I no longer find any usage of talking to that guy
i found him once in my first ps3 save, he gave me a purple shotgun, the cool thing is that i was on the final story mission so i used the gun he gave me on the final boss, thanks Legendary Vault hunter, you really did help me
i seen him quite few times , problem is most people walk past over him , or not knows he has few spawn locations rather then 1 , he can be all over sanctuary.
he can be, as i said in a reply to someone else's comment it took me ~30 minutes of checking all his possible spawn locations before eventually finding him.
Idk why but the in 360 version i put in hundreds of hours a d i always seen him in town, never once have i not found him in town. He always pawns on 360 i guess
I have played this game quite a bit and i've only gotten something from him twice First time it was something blue and it wasn't that great, like it isn't this video The second time it was a goddamn golden hornet pistol!!!!!!!!!!
what I did was I just went to claptraps place went back to sanctuary, went to the spots where he spawns (near claptrap, in dr zeds, in moxxis, in scooters and in marcus') if he wasn't there I'd go back to claptraps place and repeat that cycle.
Bro am I trippin?? I swear I've seen this guy like 4 times every run (new game+) I didn't know he was rare😅 maybe it's cuz l was a vanilla game only player
1. I love the game. 2. I get the kid died of cancer and that is sad. 3. I still dont get why they put him in the game. Because he died of cancer? That isnt unique in any way. People die from cancer all the time. It just seems weird to me.
UPDATE: I found him AGAIN in my TVHM playthrough in the crimson raiders place 😭

Marshall has sniper rifle on the back in the sanctuary

you know, I kinda cheesed that trophy for me by using golden keys. 😆

Same but he gave me a legendary painted rifle from the loading screen and I never saw him again
You probably seen him several times but didnt notice
You also would have received the achievement/trophy “Tribute to a Vault Hunter” after receiving the weapon he gives you. *🙂*
RIP Fallen Vault Hunter
RIP
RIP
RIP
? Sorry for asking, why RIP? did I miss something?

I've played borderlands for a good couple years, and I can't recall ever seeing him before this.

RIP fallen vault hunter to be forever memorialized in the game he loved
it's such a beautiful tribute they did for him, may he rest in peace, and be eternally happy. 🕊️
He was able to play it early before passing away.
He can also spawn insidd Dr.Zed's surgery room.
he can, yes, but it's randomised with roughly a 10% chance.
In the early days he always spawned in Sanctuary before it goes airborne.

I memorised every spot he could spawn in and just kept going to claptraps place and going back to sanctuary until finding him after ~30 minutes.
the legendary vault hunter
the legendary pfp
A tribute to the memory of a fallen adventurer.
Rest easy, Micheal Mamaril.
I miss him and all the good loot he gives you
I've found this dude 3 dozen or so times. I feel bad for those of you that haven't ever found him.

He's definitely legendary.
I've encountered him about 3 times over the years, I was honestly hoping he'd be in BL3 somewhere too.
I remember seeing him on my very first time ever playing Borderlands 2. Never knew he was a rare encounter at first.
Literally once you know all his spawns you can pretty much find him every time you play the game
i seen him quite few times , problem is most people walk past over him , or not knows he has few spawn locations rather then 1 , he can be all over sanctuary.
he can be, as i said in a reply to someone else's comment it took me ~30 minutes of checking all his possible spawn locations before eventually finding him.
Iv met him a handful of times really good when he gives you something it’s pretty useful in the beginning stages of every run
He gave me a really nice blue Injector pistol for my Axton, helped me through the endgame
Idk why but the in 360 version i put in hundreds of hours a d i always seen him in town, never once have i not found him in town. He always pawns on 360 i guess
I bumped onto him my first time entering sanctuary
But now I can't find him
dude's a real one, just casually giving you loot
the fact he can give you legendaries if you're lucky enough is insane.
I saw him just the other day and I had no clue he was special
Saw this guy on my first ever playthrough, didn't know he was a rare encounter at the time
He gave to me a rare SMG. One of Torgue, nothing less.
HOW-
(Unless you meant Assault Rifle because there's no way it was an smg if it was Torgue)
The most mysterious person in the game.
I've only seen him a couple times before sanctuary goes up into the sky.
Haven't seen him since.
Ngl I think Ive seen him a few times but I've never talked to him.
I see him in every run ive done and i see him 2 time min
I never found him.
I have played this game quite a bit and i've only gotten something from him twice
First time it was something blue and it wasn't that great, like it isn't this video
The second time it was a goddamn golden hornet pistol!!!!!!!!!!
Why does he have Mordecai's blade?
My guess is that before he died he played mainly Mordecai in BL1 so Gearbox had that detail in as tribute as well
He never spawns for me wtf
what I did was I just went to claptraps place went back to sanctuary, went to the spots where he spawns (near claptrap, in dr zeds, in moxxis, in scooters and in marcus') if he wasn't there I'd go back to claptraps place and repeat that cycle.
10% chance to spawn and he got many spots so far out the way that you probably don't randomly see him
If you want to see him he has 3 spawn points, Zeds clinic, Sanctuary and Moxxi's Bar.
Honestly, you probably missed him dozens of times by now.
