Current Events > Woah, Borderlands 3 really shat the bed on the loot balancing huh

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm like level 8 and I already have 3 legendary guns and a bunch of purples. Pretty much still in tutorial mode and greens and blues are already obsolete.

What the fuck is this? In the first borderlands game you don't see your first (crappy) light orange legendary until like level 23 or something. In BL2 I have a character that must be about level 22 and I've barely seen a handful of purples.

It's the complete opposite in wonderlands

Yeah I remember I had a bunch of the promo keys for that chest in town and nearly everything it churned out was worse stat wise than shit I already had. They looked p cool though

No 2 shat the bed on it.

What was wrong with 2?

Borderlands 2 AFTER the 3x increase patch felt like a really good place for the drop rate and balancing to be at.

The problem with the frequent legendary drops in BL3 is that you need so many specific parts or augments for them that it's just as tedious as before if not worse.

They shat the bed in terms of story too.

Such a disappointment of a game...

I legitimately only used the doom shotgun the entire time I played that game. They gave me so many legendaries that I could just wait for the next higher level doom shotgun to drop and then use that

There was this one gun that got me thorugh a lot of my playthrough.... I think it was called the Devils Threesome or something. 3 rockets shoot out and meet at the point of where your reticle is.

Such low range but man it breezed through everything. In fact. I found one and beat the main game and then found a mayham version really quickly in the start of that.

Needing 4 people for some legendary drops to have just a 1% chance of dropping. There's a reason most of the guns people had were modded in.
