*Official Borderlands Thread* - Mad Max + 5 Billion Weapons

  1. I haven’t been playing much lately.

How do you actually use a siren? im a level 14 atm. Ived used her skill just to sneak around enemies, can you do anything else?

A lot of her buffs give her certain things while she is in phasewalking mode or when phase walking mode ends. (stronger melee attacks, regen health, damage resistance buff, daze enemies)

so when she comes out of the walk does it do radial damage or special attacks during (depending on my skill tree)?

Artifacts make her cause damage when she goes in and out of phasewalk.

And the melee attack that you can use to come out of it does extra damage.

Both. You can get a skill that does damage to everyone while you are moving in phasewalk, as well as artifacts that cause damage when you enter/exit it.

It depends on which tree you choose. I have alot of controller skills so everytime I phasewalk I gain health back so I can basically tank with her. I also have incendiary lvl 5 dmg off the phasewalk as well as maxed stun potential.

I’m at level 12. I probably won’t finish this game till 2011. lol

I see… Cherry earned!!

@ Luckyday: Thanks :wgrin:

Is it worth spending points on your elemental levels? ive got up to 2/3 for each element for my soldiers turret. It seem to me that corrosive damage is the best element for beating enemies then fire. Also how much of an elemental boost to you get with lilith?

You can also use the phasewalk to retreat and regroup. If you have a fast recharging shield you can phasewalk far enough away where the enemies will not know where you went. You can then reform a strategy or actually make one besides run in real fast. :looney:

My general game plan with roland: Grenade > Hide > Run Out > Turret > Hide > Run Out with Shotgun and go crazy.

Lilith is all about elemental damage game. If any of your weapons don’t have corrosive/explosive/incendiary/shock you shouldn’t be using it. No matter what tree almost all of her DOT is about elemental damage of some sort. The weapon doesn’t matter just that it has elemental damage.

Yeah, right now I’ve got Lilith with:

Hellfire x4 SMG + Skills that add all the elemental chances + Mods for like 80% SMG Damage, and it’s pretty much cake to take down anyone I’ve come across.

Focus on the SMGs and elemental effects and you’re good to go with her. And add in whatever other skills suit your style.

How many peeps do you think actually have a 4x Hellfire though?

I do, but you and I are the only people I know of who do.

And I use BRICK, and it’s my favorite gun - so that should say sometime as to its mettle.

How is she with snipers? ive come across 3 or 4 good snipers (fire, electric, corrosive and blast) in my soldier class which i have to distribute across my characters. Im gonna keep 1 fire for my soldier, blast for my brick, electric for my hunter and corrosive for lilith. Whats the best element lilth can use?

Yeah, it’s easily the best gun I’ve seen among my friends and I.

Not saying that it’s required though, just point out that any elemental gun plus Lilith’s buffs can be kick ass.

i think im gonna use this mike tyson build

It’s so stupidly broken that I just spazz a burst into a crowd, then duck under cover for half a second, and they’ve all died of massive proc damage. :rofl:

That’s pretty much what I use, except I put 5 points into Die Hard, and 1 in Iron Fist and 4 in Short Fuse.

Because Class Mods compensate that shit, and I’ve got an extra skill.

Yeah, and the scope is pretty awesome, because you can hit them from a distance where they can’t even see you and just let them burn to death.

Yes.

And yet I still quibble over the fuzziness of the site in the evening. :rofl:

I’m terrible that way.

jab, at what level did you beat your 1st walkthrough?
