Borderlands 2: Fastest Way to Level 50

borderlands-2-fastest-way-to-level-50

Want to know the Fastest Way to Level 50 in Borderlands 2? Don’t we all!

It’s not hard to accomplish, but it does take time. You must be efficient, kill fast, and not die. But what else?

You’ll want Moxxi’s Endowment — an artifact / relic that increases the amount of EXP / experience you get ever time you kill an enemy. These percentage can vary, but 5% is common. Get it via the Mordy’s Secret Stashes mission (thanks Mordecai).

Joining a party can help you finish quests / missions quickly, kill monsters fast, and get to the part of the game that matters most — Playthrough 2 — where all enemies are stronger, higher leveled, and drop more money and loot. You’ll level very fast this way and can even get revived by your teammates, which is great because dying wastes both time AND money, which we want since we’re trying to lvl as fast as possible!

Kill Bosses! These guys give you lots of experience points and rare / legendary loot. It’s a win-win. If you’re up to the challenge, kill Terramorphous the Invincible for lots of EXP + even better loot.

Check out Borderlands 2 – Fastest Way to Level up for even more information on reaching level 50 (or whatever the level cap is after all the DLC add-on packs raise it). Good luck!



Borderlands 2: Best Way to Get Rare, Epic, Legendary Weapons

borderlands-2-best-way-to-get-rare-epic-legendary-weapons

Borderlands 2 sports a gazillion amount of guns that are generated by the game’s weapon engine.

These come with different stats and levels of rarity as well.

This allows you to get very unique gear that others may not have.

So what can you do to help increase the likelyhood of getting some awesome weapons? Perhaps some great elemental weapons. Check out below.

Borderlands 2 Rarity Color Skill

White (Common Item)
Green (Uncommon Item)
Blue (Rare Item)
Purple (Epic Item)
Pink / Magenta (E-Tech)
Orange (Legendary Item)

There are also SERAPH items that require the use of Seraph Crystals.

Finding loot and good gear doesn’t have to be that hard.

You can get rare shields, legendary weapons, epic class mods, and rare grenade mods + artifacts / relics. Look below to see the best way of getting these items.

Something important to keep in mind is that you should do all item hunting and farming during Playthrough 2 instead of through the original Playthrough — Playthrough 1 — as enemies get harder the second time around and drop better loot.



Borderlands 2: How to fix “Corrupt File – Some of your downloadable content is corrupt and can not be loaded”

borderlands-2-how-to-fix-corrupt-file-some-of-your-downloadable-content-is-corrupt-and-can-not-be-loaded

With Gaige the Mechromancer becoming available, a new patch was released to help give compatibility for the character. So if you preordered the game or bought the DLC, then this error is something that might have happend to you.

The error in question: Corrupt File – Some of your downloadable content is corrupt and can not be loaded

It is a nasty little error, that is completely fixable. It’s especially easy for Steam copies of the game.

How to Fix Borderlands 2 Corrupt File Error

It’s really simple. If you have a Steam copy of the game, then go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\SteamApps\common\Borderlands 2\DLC\POPremierClub\Lic

If a regular copy (such as from the DVD / CD), go to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\2K Games\Borderlands 2\DLC\POPremierClub\Lic
Remove the “PreorderBonus.txt” file.

Method 2
Still not working? If you have edited your WillowDLC.ini file, then recover the original. If using Steam, delete the file and revalidate your game cache.

Method 3
Still not working? For Steam again, try deleting the DLC folder, then revalidate your game cache.

If none of these methods worked for you, then check out How to FIX – Borderlands 2: Corrupt File Error (Downloadable Content) for additional help on fixing / troubleshooting this Borderlands 2 game error.

The Best Class in Borderlands 2

Borderlands 2 ClassesWondering what the best class in Borderlands 2 is?

That’s the question that is on most people’s minds when they start this game — either on Windows PC (such as from Steam or DVD / CD), or via the console path — Xbox 360 or PlayStation 3 (PS3).

Let us help you out by showing you the pros and cons, the negatives and positives, the good and the bad…of each class!

And after that, we’ll end with our personal opinion on the best overall class, solo class, support class, crowd control class, etc is!

Disagree with what we chose? Then please comment below and tell us why. We are open to changing our minds!

Commander / Soldier (Axton)

Pros: Great solo class. Capable of deploying TWO turrets at once depending on your skilltree choices. Good for support. Turrets can fight entire battles for you while you are safely hidden.
Cons: You have to depend on your Turrets to keep alive (depending on your skill choices) so watch out for the cooldown on Sabre Turret (this can be improved depending on skill choices too and from class mods). If you played the soldier class from the first game, then you might feel bored if you’re looking for some big changes. Note though that the turrets this time around are much stronger than before.

Siren (Maya)

Pros: Very strong. Capable of obliterating enemies with fast, elemental bullet attacks. Very high DPS / damage per second so great PVP. Can Phaselock enemies to make them easier to attack / stop them from fighting. Can provide good support using skills: res, elated, restoration, and sweet release. Has some crowd control abilities utilizing Phaselock.
Cons: Really no big cons here. If I had to pick something, then it would be that she can’t tank as well as SOME of the other classes, though her shield skills help.

Gunzerker (Salvador)

Pros: One of the most fun classes to play! Using two guns at once allows for massive killing power and high DPS (damage per second). Has tanking skills available in Brawn tree.
Cons: You definitely need some good guns to utilize the Gunzerker better. He *can* be a bit vulnerable to attacks unless you choose the tanking skill tree, which will make him not as powerful damage-wise.

Zer0 / Zero (Assassin)

Pros: High damage dealing when using a sniper rifle. Sniping from a distance allows you to protect yourself from damage to your shields and hp / health always remain pretty high. Ninja sword is fun for melee attacks and his skills let him escape situations that other characters would have issues escaping from. Melee attacks are powerful.
Cons: A bit low in defense so can cause Zer0 to be vulnerable in close combat. Depending on the situation you’re in, long range combat isn’t as easy (though it is still very doable).

Mechromancer (Gaige)

This class is available through DLC / Downloadable Content (AddOn pack). If you preordered the game, then you’ll get it for free.
Pros: Great solo and support class because of the killer robot (Death Trap). Unique class. Death Trap helps kill and pick off hidden enemies.
Cons: Low gun capacity with anarchy build. Must worry about stacks. *Can* depend on robot Death Trap.
(Check Borderlands 2: Best Build for Mechromancer for more information on picking the best build for Gaige)

Best Borderlands 2 Class

So what’s the best class in Borderlands 2? It’s hard to say given all the available options and really depends on what you’re looking for. Are you aiming for the strongest borderlands 2 class? The best tank class? The most damage dealing class? The best solo class? The best PVP class? How about the best crowd control class?

It is MY opinion that the best class in the game is Siren. And here’s why:

— You can kill enemies VERY fast with quick bullets and elemental damage
— Phaselock lets you disable enemies that are causing you problems
— Despite lack of defense, you can get the skills Sustenance (regenerates health) and Life Tap (steals health from enemies) to help prolong your life, and along with your regenerating shields, this allows you to kill, kill, and kill some more.

She’s a good class to duo with in a party or join with a group, and can be a good hybrid class depending on the build you use.

Best Solo Class: Commando or Mechromancer
Best PVP Class: Siren
Best Crowd Control Class: Gunzerker
Best Support Class: Mechromancer and Siren
Best Melee Class: Assassin

Disagree with our selection? That’s okay! Let us know why in the comments below and maybe our opinions will change too!
