So it's as good as meleeing, maybe worse because sometimes you don't see the legs and that doesn't happen when meleeing. And meleeing them isn't dangerous at all too. | ||

Jakobs guns have huge numbers and don't do elemental, so they ignore the crystalisks' normal blanket resistance. | ||

And meleeing them isn't dangerous at all too. They seem really passive to me, if you shoot at them they will fuck you up, but if you just run at them and start hitting they can't turn fast enough to fire their spikes at you because of the stun and drop really fast. I love the designs for enemies they came up with in this game though, so many cool neat tricks you can do, like shooting threshers tentacles, shooting the chains off the midgets on the nomad torturers so they turn and distract them and you can flank the nomads, shooting bullymongs projectiles out of the air, goliaths metal helmets (did you know you can get a crit through the helmets with e-tech weapons!(at least with the sniper railguns)) evolving enemies and more. Fucking love this game. On October 03 2012 19:21 Belisarius wrote: I've found that any of the big jakobs sniper rifles will 3sk them. I never bother with melee.

This is a crystalisk we're talking about. One shot to each crystal makes a 3sk overall, same as melee but without having to run in. I don't even know if it's possible to osk the creature as a whole. Maybe with a bee or a huge rocket launcher. | ||

 Not sure if I can post a link here but just thought this would help someone having random crashes (mods feel free to remove if deemed an unworthy source): Fixes for Borderlands 2 crashes. | ||

If it took more than one shot.... you weren't using a Jakobs.  | ||

I killed blue this way and just lol'ed Blue was ridiculous. Tons of much smaller enemies you can't phaselock, but one of the biggest things in the game can be picked up and made totally trivial? He got his revenge, though. Bugged out and didn't fall down when he died, making the chest on his back inaccessible. I tried for about 45 minutes to climb up his bouncy damn legs before quitting and running through the level again (he didn't reappear and the chest simply stayed on the ground). | ||

+ Show Spoiler + If you are playing as Zer0 and spec into b0re, you can one shot all of his health. It seems to work best for me when I aim for the front corner just under the top turret placements. Also you should be relatively horizontal to him, so if you are in the lower area you need to wait for him to angle downwards at you and get close enough to be relatively level with him. The shot can keep the boring sound going for several seconds even after his health is gone if you are just right on the angle. You can destroy one of his turrets after to get him to move to his death spot quicker, then any shot will kill him there. First time this happened to me I had popped off a quick shot from my slag sniper at the start advancing up from lower area, then his health bar showed up and I was like wtf did he spawn with no health, then on testing further realized what happened. And of course, I'm using a Jakobs sniper for this now just for kicks. I also finally found my second e-tech weapon in a chest in thousand cuts, but unfortunately it's just another splatgun. This time it's shock instead of corrosive and hyperion instead of tediore, so it's way less cool . | ||

This one totally makes up for the bs that was the other one where it became unkillable, though this one is pretty bs as well.

I had written it off as a bug after being initially really confused about how easy he was and then later how not dead in two shots he was on the my second fight against him...and this is confirmation that it is a bug, but with somewhat of an explanation of it. | ||

In terms of likely hours played it would be hard to go wrong with BL2 unless you are accustomed to getting multiple hundreds of hours per game. Not to say nobody would play BL2 that long, I'm sure plenty will given they managed to in BL1. | ||

More than 99% of games in this day and age. Also has a lot of fun little things to find in the game. | ||

If you hit the angle right the sound can go for a full ten seconds(if it's not exactly right it's much shorter but still works), so there's no doubt for me that that's what is causing it. | ||
