Just got back home. I played some as gaige solo earlier....it was redonkulous.

Seriously. Forget about her summon (which literally could kill entire encounters by itself early on), anarchy with just 1 point is freaking insane right from the start.

I got one of the pistols that gets more accurate as you fire it, so the accuracy penalty had no effect, and just started playing through the game. Not only did accuracy not effect my pistol, but the sniper rifle in my alternative slot also was so accurate that it didn't impact it at all.

I walked through the early game, including the bewm bewm crew super easy, just blowing everything up. I rarely bothered to use her super power as I could just 1 shot sniper kill almost everything before I even got close, and if they did actually aproach me, switch to my pistol to take them out.

So I get to the first fire boss guy (forget his name right now). A bit of history, with Salvador solo (I just did it the day before to level him up for our group), it was Seriously hard to kill the fire guy, at least till I realized I could only really damage him when he was not on fire, and that there was a corner I was safe in from his attacks while I waited for him to not be on fire.

Meanwhile I went into the fight with almost 150 anarchy stacks as gaige. I had a sniper rifle out and shot the boss guy 4 times...and he died. That was it. Didn't take any damage. I had to clean up the little guys all over after that, but yeah....easiest thing ever.

Now I admit, I didn't even try to use a sniper rifle on him as salvador (just used pistols pretty much) so it might have been easier if I had, but yeah, 4 shots and dead. Gaige in the early game at least is freaking silly easy.

Maybe she doesn't scale as well later on, but honestly I don't see how that is true. Even with just 1 point in anarchy and no points in the hit when you miss ability, you get a WAY higher damage multiplier then any other character all together (From just spending 1 point). Other points can boost that a ton as well (Allowing for 600 or so stacks of anarchy being possible), but honestly just 150 anarchy stacks alone is so insane, and works for all guns.

Don't even need to look at other gaige abilities, those alone make her a goddess (The no miss hit + anarchy combo), which only takes 6 freaking skill points all together lol.

Have not looked if she can get +skills to the no miss ability, but if you could get +5 in it, that would mean 100% chance to hit with your bullets that miss and do 50% damage. Things like a decent shotgun would become godlike with her at that point. I can't ever play this with others, but solo....oh yeah. She is my new solo character for sure.
