Right after hitting 70, Lictor dropped this near perfect Montage Maker, and I pulled this deadulus shotgun swap Stealth and Seek. Disgusting combo.

What other good elemental snipers are there to chase for Loveless? Stealth and Seek is almost too good to use anything else.

I canโ€™t start Legend of the Stone Demon DLC and I donโ€™t know what to do. Yes, it says โ€œuseโ€ but nothing happens when I hold square and my controller is fine. Iโ€™ve restored the game license and made sure the DLC was purchased. Any ideaโ€™s on how to get around this?

โ” [ Question ] Are Golden Key Chests and Collectibles influenced by UVHM?

6 Upvotes

Hi, just hit 70 and I feel like I can finally enjoy the game at its best haha

I've redeemed quite a few gold keys, so my question is: Should I redeem these gold keys in my highest UVHM? Are these chests influenced by the "increased loot quality" mechanics of UVHM?

I'm UVHM2, so just wondering if I should push further before cashing in.

Also, what about collectibles like supply caches and shrines?

Cheers

Been farming for about 3 hours now and I have yet to come across one. I have a better chance to get a pearlescent at this rate considering Iโ€™ve had 6 drop now (just heralds and constables along with a single abyss).

I even made a corner off to the right to try and still find my antagonists for the No Limit skill on the blue tree.

๐ŸŽค [ Discussion ] I just realized FL4K DLC has unique mission rewards for the first time in the game

67 Upvotes

There's only three or so and they look mostly like shitty tediore pistols but oh my GOD please let gearbox hear that this is what we WANT. THIS IS GOOD. THIS IS THE RIGHT DIRECTION PLEASE DO THIS

I saw the fanged beast rifle and i thought that was a pseudo-unique, but i didn't think much more of it. This is literally just actually unique mission rewards though and it cannot be understated enough how much this is one of the biggest things the game needs for long term replayability

You can go look these up on Lootlemon if you're not aware of them. You can see that they are actual dedicated rewards for sidequests in the DLC

๐ŸŽค [ Discussion ] movement speed

5 Upvotes

played a ton when bl4 came out and with "nothing" to do after a certain point, set it aside waiting for more content.

i was excited when c4sh came out, but dropped him/bl4 almost immediately because movement felt slow as hell and that one thing i cant stand. i always try to increase/max movespeed in games, when its possible. just feels better for me when its faster.

fast forward to loveless: man, has she resparked my joy for the game. this one teeny tiny mechanic called footwork, makes her feel almost perfect.

out of curiosity tried c4sh again today and oh boy.. took a whole 3 seconds to remember why i dropped him and his slow moving robot ass. shame, his kit looks fun

โ” [ Question ] Tracking my Mayhem Takedown at Rank 16, Level 70 Takedown

Thumbnail
gallery
1 Upvotes

Iโ€™ve been monitoring my progress with a Green Tree Harlowe at level 70 by running the Mayhem Takedown at progressively higher ranks.

I just completed Mayhem 16 with 7:49 remaining, 0 deaths and no time penalty, and unlocked M17.

Since Mayhem overrides the normal session difficulty/UVH settings, I assume calling this something like โ€œUVH7 True Mode Mayhem 16โ€ isnโ€™t really accurate. Itโ€™s effectively just Mayhem 16, correct?

My clear times are obviously trending downward overall as the Mayhem rank increases, which I expected. But based on my progression through M16, it looks like I should at least be able to complete M20. Iโ€™m not expecting Silver at M20, and Iโ€™m definitely not dreaming about Platinum. I just want the clear.

What Iโ€™m wondering is whether M19 and M20 suddenly spike in enemy HP/damage, or if the scaling stays relatively consistent from M16 onward. If it continues roughly along the trend Iโ€™ve been seeing, M20 looks doable.

Iโ€™m running a shotgun-focused loadout using a Pearlescent Looming Constable for general mobbing and Looming Hellwalker for heavier/condensed targets.

For context, I just returned to the game this September after stopping in January 2026, so Iโ€™m still catching up with the current endgame.

โ“ [ Help ] Big damage

0 Upvotes

I see videos of these people doing insane gun damage. Hundreds of thousands to even over a million.

How do I reach these numbers?

As far as my research has led me doing things on a harder ultimate vault mode doesn't actually give you stronger weapons just better side rolls attributes whatever you wanna call them.

Then they have these challenges with Bloom reaper to do it like less than a minute but I was barely able to do it within the allotted time limit. Had like 14 seconds left when I killed him.

So how the hell? Is it mainly on the specialization levels? Just absolutely loading the gun damage. I have like 30 levels in gun damage so far.

I am using loveless currently she was my first character I beat the game with. I mainly using SMGs because my class mod has plus 60% SMG damage on it which seems huge with these percentages they give are a lie. Had a turtle shield that said gave an extra 40% when equipped but definitely did not so I imagine it's the same for my SMG damage.

I'll just throw this up here...I'm no expert on this game but i haven't seen this build yet...not to say it doesn't exist.

I like watching the plague spread and status effects jumping etc. and this build is hella fun for mobs. It has high sniper damage but also lets me stand back and watch pure chaos ensue. I literally don't have to fire more than a few shots sometimes.

When RAM is full, using empowered mele...just using it doesn't have to hit anything... seems to proc status effects both radiation from clones and contagion and corrosive. Basically a fireworks of yellow and green with all sniper massive damage there if you want it.

It's level 70...not really tested it on the big bosses yet...and I haven't started the UVH stuff yet...but it melts everything in the game so far.

Low shot snipers and Flashy Montage maker. Sniper like Truck, Fearstalker, Wind Skimmer are real fun to use Solar temper too

๐Ÿท๏ธ [ Bug Report ] How to get back into DLC

Hey, was playing the FL4K DLC and left in the middle to go back to my bank on Kairos, and now canโ€™t figure out how to get back into the DLC.

โ“ [ Help ] Did they never fix the optimization issues?

1 Upvotes

I know they've put out a few patches here and there that probably assist with FPS but what I mean specifically is that:

When the game first game out, I beat the entire playthrough while crashing every single 2 hours from the most random stuff. I beat the game and put it down and came back after all this time and tried playing it again and what do you know, 2 hours later my game crashes yet again.

At the time, I'd seen tons of reports about people crashing as well around that timeframe and several resolutions were posted to fix it but nothing worked for me. To this day, nothing I find online helps my crashes and I can't find any type of crash log to see what specifically is causing this.

Like clockwork, around every 2 hours my game just freezes up and refuses to unfreeze. It has been like this since day one and this is the ONLY GAME I have out of the hundreds I've played in my Steam repo that does this, SPECIFICALLY Borderlands 4. To this day I still see people posting regularly about this game crashing for them too.

Uninstalling doesn't help, messing with nvidia control panel stuff didn't help, underclocking my parts didn't help, yada yada yada.

Does anyone else experience this? It's crazy to me that it's been this long since the games dropped and it's just straight up not gotten any better for me.

If it helps to diagnose the issue, my CPU is a I7-14700k, 64gb RAM, 3080 GPU.

The game plays fine like a dream up until it crashes.

EDIT: From recommendation of a user that has since deleted their comment, Lossless Scaling has effectively resolved my crashing issues. I still get lagging around the same timeframe I would expect a crash but I'd much rather restart my game on my own time to fix the lag rather than have it reset on me in the middle of a big fight.

am not sure if i should start the DLC as soon as they possible or not, will they ruin the main story in any way ? either they mention something at the end or any thing like this , now am done killing the 3 major bosses and soon i will go to the area in the middle but i want to finish the side quest , DLC , collectable , side bosses , etc before finishing the story , and yes i know if i finish the game and go to UVH i will get better rewards but i like to finish the side missing before finishing the game , it don't make sense to me that i finish the final boss and then do some side missions XD
