Re: Borderlands
I am having a hard time killing the Giant Pyscho dude in Sledges safe house. Any tips?
And I just found this awesome shot gun that also fires rockets (in the item description it actually says Holy Crap! It fires rockets!)

I actually think that is the gun that saved me on the final boss in the game. Good gun - hold onto it.

Note: on your characters special skills make sure you invest your skill points in Shield, Health then Damage. Especially Health off the bat to help you regain health when you need it.

I don't remember exactly. My boys are playing right now, but in a bit I'll see what it's called. I must've been lucky on the weapons I found, because I've been breezing through everything so far, unless I run out of ammo. I found a couple weapons that cause fire damage when I was level 4 or so, and I think I had the sniper that does 117 since level 2, that was a HUGE help.

Re: Borderlands
Use any powerful "Fire" weapon. I used a Rocet Launcher right off the bat while he was at a distance and just keep moving. A good SMG along with a Shotgun for close encounters with him and those nasty midgets. If you have "Transfusion" grenades have them handy along with your Special Skills will drain them.

Re: Borderlands
what's the easy class to play? i'm playing the one where you can turn invisible.
Is that a good class?
also, i find myself running out of ammo alot. (played about 2 hours).
is the entire game scarce on ammo?
do you have to spend your money on ammo alot?

Re: Borderlands
Yeah, once you start buying the ammo capacity upgrades, it won't be so much of a problem. Also, many of the classes have either abilities or class mods that can help with ammo regeneration or conservation.
The skill I love is the Siren ability to have a chance of not consuming ammo shortly after getting a kill. Not having to reload as often is a really nice feature.

I just beat Mad Mel in a much easier way than the game wants you to:
instead of driving into the arena and attempting to take him on that way, I just stood on top of the entrance ramp and fired away with a rocket launcher. He went down fast.

Re: Borderlands
during the second playthrough, after all the enemies get twice as hard that was the only way I could kill him...

On the second playthrough vehicles just get destroyed way too damn easily. Mad Mel has been the only boss to cause me to die so far on the second playthrough (two deaths). Every other boss has been cake, except Skagzilla took like 10 minutes to kill.

Re: Borderlands

Re: Borderlands
I ended up killing him in the exact same way. My wife was watching me as I was playing that part, and she told me i was cheating .... I said "He is still dead isnt he, so I did what i had to"... hahah

Re: Borderlands
Just beat the Hell-burbia Arena solo as a 45 Siren. It wasn't too bad, except for whenever Blazing Maniac's show up, since most of my weapons have fire damage and they are immune to fire. Closest I got to dying was once I dropped down to 26 health, the rest of the time it was pretty smooth sailing. Shit was intense as hell though. Took about an hour.

Heh, you're not going to want to go much further alone. I had a post in here about my 3 hour, 45 minute adventure through tourney #4 with 2-4 other people at any given time before the DBs got rolled back.
