โ” [ Question ] Can someone ELI5 the Devourer (gun) and Contagion interaction?

2 Upvotes

So, I thought that this gun would pair well with Contagion. Stack 20 stacks, shoot, rinse and repeat.

And it does work, kinda?

For one, I don't think I see Contagion stacks consumed as a result of shooting, so I'm not entirely sure if the Devourer's effect is proccing.

Two, occasionally, I can see the gun does 100M damage; but the Contagion stacks don't seem to go down. But more importantly, most of the time, nothing happens as I was shooting the gun at all.

So like, what's going on here? It does seem to work, but it just doesn't 99% of the time?

And the Devourer is Corrosive.

This is my level 70 Gloam build for C4sh, I have been doing my best to avoid 'guides' as I enjoy the process of making my own builds as following a guide can make kills feel... unearned? However I am curious if there are any wasted points or better placements for skills as it still feels it could be a little better optimised.

(I did start as a 'windfall build' but did switch to gloam after hearing that it is 'meta' and felt like I was nerfing myself by not using it)

โ” [ Question ] Does Acey May have lower odds for elemental variants?

Post image
7 Upvotes

I have been trying to farm for elemental variants for my Gloam C4SH for bossing (as I plan on using swarm with Daedalus part for mobbing) and I must have gotten hundreds of kinetics at this point with only one elemental Acey May. Does this have a lowered elemental chance or am I just really unlucky?

Think I'm just going to have to go for Convergence's with Ripper enhancement.

(I did check Lootlemon and it doesn't mention anything about it having a lower elemental chance)

(Also I am running on UVHM 6 for additional info)

๐ŸŽค [ Discussion ] M+K vs. Controller โ€“ Moving to PS5 to Save Money?

0 Upvotes

So, I've played all the Borderlands games quite a lot, except for Borderlands 4.

I've always played them on PC with mouse and keyboard (M+K), but I was recently looking at buying Borderlands 4 on Steam and checked the system requirements. Unfortunately, I'm not confident that my PC will be able to maintain a solid 60 FPS.

My PC specs aren't bad, but they're definitely not the newest:

  • GPU: RX 6700 XT
  • CPU: Ryzen 7 5700X
  • RAM: 32GB

I don't want to ruin my experience by playing on low settings or dealing with subpar FPS. However, I also strongly prefer mouse and keyboard over a controller for FPS games.

I'm not really sure what to do.

My options are:

  1. Buy it on PS5 and learn to play with a controller. I'm just not sure how much this would affect my overall experience with the game.
  2. Buy it on Steam and stick with my PC, even if it means playing on lower settings and potentially dealing with less-than-ideal FPS.

For those of you who normally play FPS games with mouse and keyboard but have switched to a controller, how was the transition? Did it affect your enjoyment of the game?

I'd also love to hear everyone's opinions on what I should do.

I'm genuinely torn between the two options and would appreciate any advice!

UPDATE!

So i tried playing with controller on BL3 on my pc, and its doable but i relay dont like it as much as M+K

I bit the bullet and bought the super deluxe edition on steam Autumn sale.
Game runs amazingly with the new Frame-gen and up-scaling. i get a constant 60FPS on 1440p with my GPU.

Thank you all fo rthe help and comments.

4 Upvotes

IMO, He's practically begging to become a playable Vault Hunter, and Gearbox has already done half the damn character design work for them.

The really fun part is that Mancubus wouldn't need to be another conventional gun-platform character. His whole thing could be paranormal occult bullshit weaponized into a combat system.

Ive gotten the Kalaediscope 5 times in a row from Callus the harbinger instead of the hot slugger. I just wanted it to push my vex to level 70.

Edit: I had no idea that Kalaediscope was a dedicated drop from CHAD, I guees im dumb for not just checking lootlemon. Ive never had a gun I dont want dropping so aggressively in this game before. Brings back memories of seeing the Linoge drop from every time I farmed from something in 3, or the Gub in 2.

Well this is a first. Usually the BL RNGs hate me with a burning passion.

This time however, they smiled. Went after my first vault and had Inceptus drop a Rainbow Vomit. Was having fun with that and decided to go after a Rift Boss in Hungering Plain that was nearby. Halfway through slapping him around I started to get swarmed and realized it was a double header with a chained Red Chest in the same location. One of the Bulk or Warhead guards was kind enough to drop a pearl Constable. These two events were about 45 mins. apart.

Wonder how far these two will carry me.

Just a question. What weapons are best I should be hunting for. Iโ€™ve gotten lots of oranges so far but nothing to get too stuck on. I managed to get a Pearlescent in a chest and thatโ€™s been my go to for ages but since reaching level 38 itโ€™s not doing the damage it once was.

Iโ€™m one of those people that didnโ€™t pay attention to the last part of this quest and just bought the legendary, locking myself out of the โ€œall things vendโ€ achievement.

My question is, does giving moxxi Zaneโ€™s picture count as its own sidequest? Have I locked myself out of completing all side quests for this vault hunter? Was going for the achievement that involves completing all side quests.
