Borderlands 2 – Easy Multi-Character Leveling and Better Loot

Are you playing Borderlands 2 yet? NO?! Go get it now! Ok, now that we got that out of the way, there is a very simple way to level multiple characters as well as get better loot for your characters. Once you load into Pandora and before you start shooting skags and psychos, you may be wondering which character class to start as, well now you don’t really have to choose.

I don't remember if this holds true for the first one as well.

soljah4661d ago

interesting so this means u get to level 2 characters at once.then use 1 for a offline playthru and 1 to take online with friends. not bad

ddelella4661d ago

This was present in the first one but the other players only received a small amount of XP compared to the person who got the kill. They should have implemented an auto boot if a player is not moving for a period of time, like GoW3 did for multiplayer.

Bathyj4661d ago

So does this mean you play in splitscreen but by yourself?

Bathyj4661d ago

Hmm. Nice trick, but its not for me.

I'll use a formula I use when comparing weapons in Borderlands.

I dont just go off damage, you have to factor rate of fire as well.

So a gun with 20 damage that shoots at a rate of 10 equalling 200 is better than a gun with 30 damage shooting at 6 to equal 180.

Even though the later does more damage per bullet, its doing less damage per second.

In this case leveling up double the amount of characters would not be worth it to me personally since it would more than half my enjoyment of the game.

Still a cool trick though.

In this one you get full xp and money. There is no boot for inactive players either.

Today I took five friends to twenty by just doing hyperion arena.

Whats the point in that? Ruining a game the day it comes out. I can see if they beat the game already or something, but power leveling n day 1? Those are the people who bitch saying X game is boring when its their own fault.

I Sure Hope The Next Borderlands Is A Lot Like Borderlands 2

Ahmad from eXputer: "Borderlands 2's unrivaled storytelling is something that has to lean into the core elements of the next iteration in the Borderlands series."

TheNamelessOne313d ago

What? You didn't love the cringe writing that 3 had?

pwnmaster3000313d ago

Playing it now and it’s not so bad, but I’ve just started so maybe it will get worse

DustMan312d ago

It's not bad. It's just hard to top Handsome Jack as an antagonist. I really enjoyed 3. It has the best gameplay of the entire series, and it holds the same vibe. Tiny Tina's Wonderland was a huge disappointment to me.

Demetrius311d ago

I recently finished 3, definitely had fun fr

-Foxtrot313d ago

I'm curious how they are going to do the Siren since they've kind of wrote themselves into a corner regarding the lore.

gold_drake313d ago

well, im sure the last eridium slab is the answer to that. either mystery or villain

-Foxtrot313d ago

I meant more in terms of how they established only 6 Sirens can exist in the entire Universe...which was kind of silly to me as they seem to all end up on Pandora, and the Universe is a pretty big place.

Then there's now the fact, since Borderlands 3 retconed it, when a Siren dies she can transfer her power to the next Siren, they don't have to be born with it. This also means there's only 6 Siren powers which will end up being recycled as the franchise goes on.

Phasewalk (Lilith)
Phaselock (Maya / Ava)
Phasetrance (Amara)
Phaseshift (Angel / Tannis)
Phaseleech (Tyreen)

So there's only one power unaccounted for and I'm guessing it belonged to Commandant Steele. There was Queen Dido but she died and someone else like Amara, Maya or Angel could have gotten their powers so really it only gives them one more Siren before they need to start rethinking things going forward.

Either we get Phaseleech next or whatever power Commandant Steele had (kind of odd she never used it in her boss fight but you know).

Terry_B312d ago

inb4 the next siren is a trans character.

gold_drake313d ago

it will probably be alot like wonderlands, since that is the last borderlands game

but we'll see soon

Terry_B312d ago

Most people do. But the people that create the games don't seem to understand that.

I bet it will be even worse than BL3 when it comes to story and character designs.

RaidenBlack312d ago

Hey Gearbox, remember Brothers in Arms?

Abnor_Mal312d ago

I would love a new game in the series, or a remake/remaster of the first three games.

RaidenBlack311d ago

I'd want them to do the 4th part and just end the story of Baker Company.
