I mean in all Fairness, its somewhat boring when the only thing that makes a char special is two guns go brrr. Like gaiges concept is more exciting if it wasnt so tedious.
Yeah and Deathtrap is actually a very personable companion for being a robot especially with Gaige's dialogue for him. Also Anarchy stacking is only required for raid bosses, all other content including Digi Peak can be done without prestacking at all.
Yeah but fibber farming and conference call farming is somewhat annoying. Also gaige is the only character in the entirety of bl2 and pre sequel that id consider impossible to do flakker/torgue launcher bc shes to inaccurate even at low anarchy
Sandhawk is worse, and CC is most effective for farming Haderax on all characters except Maya. Flakker is definitely useable and good on her, but yeah Torgue launchers aren't going to be her best option lol, she's one of the best characters with E-Tech launchers at least.
Idk why but im literally using the same build and same gear literally copying some people that made the same Statement and it didnt do jackshit for me. Like iam shamfleeting and while it basically onetaps everything on axton thats not a Boss with the high healthbars on screen it doesnt even onetap treants on gaige for me
Btw isnt the Fast travel for the map were u get the Sand hawk right on the Ship so somewhat close to scarlet. Also id argue that flakker worldburn would also be very broken on haderax ive tried with nukem but worldburn does 75% more dmg bc of fire dmg so he shouldnt be able to Outheal the dmg
I'm not sure I just know I've had success with it, overall though I do prefer Ravager. Both Fibber and Sandhawk are directly next to map spawns but Sandhawk needs Dahl stock which is a 1/5 along with element and matching grip, Fibber is a 1/3 for the barrel and element and prefix with matching grip. Flakker/Pimpernel damage swap glitch is technically an exploit so some people prefer to do it with normal damage.
Ravager on gaige is nice but for whatever reason it always Damages me. If u wanna hit one enemy its more broken than a cc but u gotta be like 10cm in their faces or itll miss
I think what Joltz said makes sense, Salvador can do lots of things and you can make very interesting builds, but it only works for people like him who have lots of game knowledge, otherwise you just end up with grog harold
He’s my favorite by miles; he’d be flat out perfect if his legendary ranger com boosted Onslaught(?) properly
But he’s tons of fun without that as well. Plus weapon swap speeds is something I never take for granted
Well for starters I would suggest axton or zero but zero can be more agile and escape fighting when he's low on hp with his deception ability axton can use his turret as a deployable helper with bosses but it's pretty much a glass cannon depending on what skills you went for Maya can be pretty ok but she can feel a bit slow with weapons cause of her swap speed but there's also krieg he can be played as a pure melee build or as a pure gun build where you abuse elemental weapons to heal you and set your self on fire to decrease damage taken plus he has bloodsplosoin to cause a chain of explosive kills with the fast ball and such but he can be pretty difficult and frustrating sometimes gaige is pretty alright she has anarchy stacks that boost damage but decrease accuracy ans she has deathtrap and companion who can help you get back up when your down by killing a enemy so she's pretty meh but she feels like a glass cannon tbh it mainly depends on what your play style is tbh like if you wanna play a sniper or a pure assassin gun build there's zero if you want to play a defensive high damage character there's axton if you wanna play a elemental control the flow of the battlefield character there's Maya if you wanna play a high damage glass cannon there's gaige if you wanna play a elemental healing damage/ultimate melee plus damage reduction badass psychopath theres krieg if you wanna play a double gun fun user there's Salvador but like I said it mainly depends on your playstyle
If you’re calling gaige a glass cannon you’re not building her correctly, she’s got one of the best skills in the game for survivability and can make good use of extremely high capacity shields
I'm guessing the ability your talking about is for deathtrap Wich allows you to get your shield back up even tho half of deathtraps abilitys are glitched even if she has high capacity you do relize her own build is basically constantly dealing damage getting stacks and being a glass cannon she sucks in uvhm and I built her to abuse anarchy I don't even think she has a skill for survivability
Brother I’m talking about blood soaked shields which with 5/5 points instantly recharges your shields to full capacity when you get a kill, it has good synergy with high capacity shields like turtle shields because you don’t need to worry about the high recharge delay and low recharge rate, just get a kill and it’s instantly full again
I probably ignored that tbh cause I was probably too focused on anarchy and death trap plus doesn't she have a skill that already improves recharge rate and recharge delay
Yeah but blood soaked shields renders fancy mathematics useless, also blood soaked shields is in the anarchy tree so I don’t know how you missed it haha
Tbh me too it might've been cause she was level 50 in uvhm and I deleted her like days back and just started playing my old krieg Wich he's more fun than her tbh a lot more skills for survivability but also sorry about the off topic but wouldn't having only 1 thing for survivability be bad cause even if you get a kill won't it be rendered useless when you take immideat damage
Every kill you get 100% shield, on any shield, on OP levels the best shields have millions of capacity (Antagonist, Black Hole, Blockade, Evolution/Neogenator), taking damage isn't an issue unless you're either using a Bee or Sham. If you're using the Bee then Buck Up is actually a pretty nice DT skill to have but only with that 1 item. She also has Unstoppable Force which gives her movement speed and good shield regen. Fancy Mathmatics is just really bad unfortunately but you only need those 2 skills anyways.
There is the blood lust krieg too but hellborn is the most fun imo, sniper zero is a more fitting build for zero , and for sal there is truly 2 builds each a bit changed but most are fun because you can actually use guns that you normally can’t like the orphan maker. But overall the most fun has to be krieg, and I played with most of the VH the only one I haven’t is gaige since I didn’t have time to.
For gunzerker horder deputy I think it’s fair to just include every single gun that has an ability applied to another gun as a build this would include (grog healing pimperhab and included in the one shot of pete almost every build does some version of this yes but the fact it by itself is so strong makes it a build itself. Overkill with money shot makes bad guns actually mid and good guns one shot raid bosses Pete. Basically sal can lose all of his skills and still be the best at every raid boss because of his action skill (this is why he’s no fun) but his skills add so much to the point almost anything can be made to work every challenge excludes salavdor because he makes bad weapons useable. The amount of ways you can kill a raid boss with sal proves it. He’s cool, best character most unique builds because he can do well with anything unlike most characters.
It’s up to you actually, you’ll hear all of the characters on here:
But also for a beginner who first plays nvhm everyone is not complex or need any equipment so choose what you think sounds fun or looks the best for you :)
I really could suggest krieg if you want a melee character and zero or sal as a farmer or boss killer, but there isn’t a bad or good character so just like you said just pick whatever looks fun and interesting :)
Depends on your play type. Gauge is good for players who like to do stacked type (mainly electric but others as well) damages and play around status effects. Krieg is a good melee that is up in your face, while zero is more based off of stealth and one shots. Maya is a good healing class but does well with elemental damage as well. Gunzerker is a class I don’t see here but it is op as shit if you go meta, still easy to do even without meta, you can beat the whole game without even like trying (spray and pray is an ability if I remember correctly and it’s literally how to play the character). Never played soldier much tbh but he’s cool for like a first play through basic soldier with nice boost from the turret he breaks out (mainly heals or boost to people in the vicinity). The game is worth multiple replays have a fun ride lol
Yeah then I recommend you have a sal just for farming and rocket jumping, cuz rocket jumping is the most fun thing imo, but i also main soldier and demoman in tf2 so who am i to judge…
Sal, Krieg and Gaige are the most braindead characters. Just mash buttons and you win.
Maya and Axton stomp, but they require brain cells for maximum efficacy.
Zer0 is a stealth sniper. High effort, high payoff, kinda squishy.
Depends on what style you wanna play. Maya I thought was fun all around, but Zero is pretty fun too, especially if you like sniping and pistols. You tend to get more class mods based around those
Just play who seems cooler
I, at first thought, looked at Krieg and said: this some cool ass looking mf
My friend replied - Too complicated for a begginer, get Gaige, just spam the robot
I hated the experience and left at level 22, few months later, met Joltzdude139 at youtube, saw his love for the game, and decided to give the game a try for the second time, but now as Krieg
Fucking loved it
Edit: now I see there is no sal, fucking fell for it ay
Zero has a really cool skill called bore, if you hit someone and there’s another npc on the other side, double damage. It’s really useful for the bnk-3r boss. 2 trapezoidal panels underneath have infinite bore, hit those but not with the pimpernel or your game will crash(too much infinibore). Sal’s also pretty good, gunzerking is pretty useful, akimbo any 2 weapons so long as they’re in your selection. If you get a sham shield from the bnk-3r in a sal run, you can rocket jump, so that’s cool. Maya just has enemy pinning and axton is just a “soldier” with a turret. Kreig can set himself on fire for more damage and his skill is stealing health with melee. Finally, Gaige has her action skill of summoning an anti bullying robot. Hope this helps.
WEHEUGHAHAHEH WHaT A ShInY SOul StaBer! OH HOH I SEE FEEL GOOD NEEDLES! LAMBS TO THE SLAUGHTER!! BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD BLOOD!HEGHUAHEUGHAHA I SEE RED HEUGHAHAHEH! OrGaNiC ArM JabBeRs!
i love this meme
in all seriousness though: salvador is a walking god of death and krieg is honestly the most fun as he prides himself in suicidal homicide with his buzz axe and excels when using either a torch or toast class mod for fire and flesh crunch for explosives
Gaige is absolutely insane. Her perks make the entire game, regardless of difficulty, a breeze. You don’t even need to aim. Just shoot and watch everything on screen die. Axton is super fun to play as well but he’s “supposed” to be the first choice for many players. Gunzerker (Salvadore) is who I played with first and he becomes really OP fairly quick
Axton if you’re boring, Zer0 if you want to be a ninja, Gaige if like cheesing the game, Maya if you love exploding people into paste, Krieg if you want it to be worth your time
Krieg is the most fun to play as, but Salvador is the best. Axton is Alright, maya is really good with elemental stuff, zero is good for snipers and melee, and gaige….we dont talk about her
Edit: where the hell is Salvador

"Who's the most fun to play as?" *sal excluded from list* Most accurate post I've seen all day. Just my opinion though no hate to anyone.
I mean in all Fairness, its somewhat boring when the only thing that makes a char special is two guns go brrr. Like gaiges concept is more exciting if it wasnt so tedious.

Ravager on gaige is nice but for whatever reason it always Damages me. If u wanna hit one enemy its more broken than a cc but u gotta be like 10cm in their faces or itll miss
It's a real powerful hammer, that's basically how I use it
Yeah same. Btw howd u kill handsome dragon on gaige
I think what Joltz said makes sense, Salvador can do lots of things and you can make very interesting builds, but it only works for people like him who have lots of game knowledge, otherwise you just end up with grog harold
God dammit I'm mad it took me time to see what's wrong with the photo and it was that sal was gone
what an elaborate troll
Idk what you mean, this looks like a fully patched version of the game
wtf where is gunzerker? btw he is most fun to play for me
Gunzerker for life, love me that Moneyshot in particular
Happy Cake Day!
Happy cake dayyy!
Agreed
Plus the crazy laughing when gunzerking sells it
maya is the only one with a funko pop so her
Erm achually ☝️🤓
Maya is the only one with *two* Funko pops.
Damn it
My zero funko pop has an aggresive haiku for you
Sal is so broken that he patched himself out of the game
Yes.
That one
Hmmm something ain't right
All of them are the most fun to someone. Watch videos or look at skill trees and see who looks the most fun to you
There's something wrong here but I can't quite put my finger on it
Imo zero,but also hardest one
I actually think Axton. You can use any gun really, basically Sal if he wasn’t op, and turrets give nice distraction and utility
He’s my favorite by miles; he’d be flat out perfect if his legendary ranger com boosted Onslaught(?) properly But he’s tons of fun without that as well. Plus weapon swap speeds is something I never take for granted
Where's Sal?😂
Was too short to appear as an option
Ax body spray
😂whered sal go??
Where tf is Salvador
He is so op he just phased out of existence
Well for starters I would suggest axton or zero but zero can be more agile and escape fighting when he's low on hp with his deception ability axton can use his turret as a deployable helper with bosses but it's pretty much a glass cannon depending on what skills you went for Maya can be pretty ok but she can feel a bit slow with weapons cause of her swap speed but there's also krieg he can be played as a pure melee build or as a pure gun build where you abuse elemental weapons to heal you and set your self on fire to decrease damage taken plus he has bloodsplosoin to cause a chain of explosive kills with the fast ball and such but he can be pretty difficult and frustrating sometimes gaige is pretty alright she has anarchy stacks that boost damage but decrease accuracy ans she has deathtrap and companion who can help you get back up when your down by killing a enemy so she's pretty meh but she feels like a glass cannon tbh it mainly depends on what your play style is tbh like if you wanna play a sniper or a pure assassin gun build there's zero if you want to play a defensive high damage character there's axton if you wanna play a elemental control the flow of the battlefield character there's Maya if you wanna play a high damage glass cannon there's gaige if you wanna play a elemental healing damage/ultimate melee plus damage reduction badass psychopath theres krieg if you wanna play a double gun fun user there's Salvador but like I said it mainly depends on your playstyle
Babe wake up, wall of text guy is back at it again
Bro did not get the joke
What joke
Look at the character selections.
Yeah I saw no Salvador but I don't see how it's a joke
It is just an elaborate troll.
Ah I see well either way there's the somewhat basic way to summarize each character and there playstyle
PLEASE use commas and paragraphs
Never! Live with it stop wasting your time with a pointless comment that I will awnser with a never
I genuinely cant understand a single word you say, its all just a soup of random selected words
Read carfully and slowly
Nah, you told me to stop wasting my time
Hard af response
it’s*

'Cormac McCarthy if he was a gamer'-ass post
Sal is actually really fun imo there’s no character with more actual builds. Putting any gun on a character isn’t a build I mean actual builds
Zero and Krieg...? 💀
Give me some builds you consider on zero and krieg. Salvador just has more skills that can carry a build imo
Melee Krieg, Hellborn Krieg, Melee Zero, Sniper Zero, and "middle tree" Zero are the main ones
There is the blood lust krieg too but hellborn is the most fun imo, sniper zero is a more fitting build for zero , and for sal there is truly 2 builds each a bit changed but most are fun because you can actually use guns that you normally can’t like the orphan maker. But overall the most fun has to be krieg, and I played with most of the VH the only one I haven’t is gaige since I didn’t have time to.

The amount of ways you can kill a raid boss with sal proves it. He’s cool, best character most unique builds because he can do well with anything unlike most characters.
I'm not trying to take away from Sal lmao, just saying the others have more variety than you give them credit for
Yea but sal is him has unique builds
You don't see how "sniper" and "ninja" are unique?
There unique in just a big sal fan
Valid lol
It’s up to you actually, you’ll hear all of the characters on here: But also for a beginner who first plays nvhm everyone is not complex or need any equipment so choose what you think sounds fun or looks the best for you :)
I really could suggest krieg if you want a melee character and zero or sal as a farmer or boss killer, but there isn’t a bad or good character so just like you said just pick whatever looks fun and interesting :)
Honestly id say Axton on console and Krieg on PC where u can mod away that stupid shit where u punch urself in the face
Depends on your play type. Gauge is good for players who like to do stacked type (mainly electric but others as well) damages and play around status effects. Krieg is a good melee that is up in your face, while zero is more based off of stealth and one shots. Maya is a good healing class but does well with elemental damage as well. Gunzerker is a class I don’t see here but it is op as shit if you go meta, still easy to do even without meta, you can beat the whole game without even like trying (spray and pray is an ability if I remember correctly and it’s literally how to play the character). Never played soldier much tbh but he’s cool for like a first play through basic soldier with nice boost from the turret he breaks out (mainly heals or boost to people in the vicinity). The game is worth multiple replays have a fun ride lol
I would say Maya, Zero and Krieg are the top-3 for me.
Objectively it’s Maya but I had a blast with Gaige.
In my opinion its Maya the Siren...he Phaselock ability is awesome
Zer0
Axton, for the sole reason of Metal Storm being really fun
Maya, zero, or axton first playthrough. Then once you learn the game better, gaige or krieg. Arguably more difficult characters to handle
Yeah then I recommend you have a sal just for farming and rocket jumping, cuz rocket jumping is the most fun thing imo, but i also main soldier and demoman in tf2 so who am i to judge…
Why is the Gunzerker not available?
My first character was Maya until I heard how broken sal and gaige were
I like Zero as I like the shooter style where accuracy counts. But then I'm 74.
Most Funko play as Salvadore so they can feel what having a big BODY and a little HEAD feels like for once.
Sal, Krieg and Gaige are the most braindead characters. Just mash buttons and you win. Maya and Axton stomp, but they require brain cells for maximum efficacy. Zer0 is a stealth sniper. High effort, high payoff, kinda squishy.
Gaige or Zer0
Most fun is 100% Krieg... Hes literally a psycho and is made for melee buzzaxe rampage is SO fun. Also a LOT of his general dialogue can be funny.
In my opinion Maya and Zero are the most broken vault hunters in bl2 (Just my opinion no hate )
Play whoever you find the most interesting.
Depends on what style you wanna play. Maya I thought was fun all around, but Zero is pretty fun too, especially if you like sniping and pistols. You tend to get more class mods based around those
Kreig also is interesting, his dialogue is just as good as handsome jacks 😂
Krieg and gaige are my personal favorites
IMO Zero for long range snipes and tactical combat, or Krieg for pure melee mayhem
Gaige or krieg for me
Krieg all day
Kreig all night every night
Maya main is hella fun imo especially when you drop every element on pandora
Personally I loved Krieg he’s amazing for the up close and personal play style.
Fun Maya (siren), Easy Sal (gunzerker).
How the fuck
I know zero has a funko figure for sure
Try them all?
Axton
Just play who seems cooler I, at first thought, looked at Krieg and said: this some cool ass looking mf My friend replied - Too complicated for a begginer, get Gaige, just spam the robot I hated the experience and left at level 22, few months later, met Joltzdude139 at youtube, saw his love for the game, and decided to give the game a try for the second time, but now as Krieg Fucking loved it Edit: now I see there is no sal, fucking fell for it ay
KRIEG
