Hey.

I was wondering if I can find some help with Borderlands(the first game) :)

I want to make all 80 achievements. So far I finished the main story + all side quests and I started playing the DLCs.
I am playing as Mordecai and I'm level 42.

I started with The Zombie Island of Dr. Ned and it was pretty kewl. I finished all sidequests in this DLC and moved to the next one (The Secret Armory of General Knoxx). At the moment I am half-way through The Secret Armory of General Knoxx but it's incredibly boring and I would enjoy it more if someone would play with me :D.

And because I want all the achievements, I will play Claptrap's Robot Revolution and Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot.

So...anybody ? :)


UPDATE:

I finished all main quests of The Secret Armory of General Knoxx, I have only 5 quests left from this DLC :

Circle of Duty: Sergeant---Circle of Duty: Medal of Duty---Local Trouble---It's Like Christmas! --- and of course You. Will. Die..

If you need assistance, I have both Brick and Mordecai around L45, so I can bring one of them to help out.

Since you're 45 on 2 characters, I guess you finished all the content in the game but I would really appreciate it if you could play with me at least 'till the end of The Secret Armory of General Knoxx DLC.

Actually, I never did finish the arena DLC (I hate that bit a lot), but I have finished the others on one of my characters. I forget which. I'm happy to repeat them for helping others though.

We can finish the 3 arenas together if you want. I got died 2 times at 4/5 stages and I ragequited. (I died at cover, I had nobody to kill to get myself up).

I'm going to sleep now since it's 4 AM in my country. Hopefuly we can play tomorrow.

I might decline on the arenas unless you get more players, but the rest of the DLCs are fine.

Well, getting all achievements from Moxxi's DLC requires approximately 8 hours of boring fights on arenas. I highly doubt you will find anyone willing to do it.

It took me around 30 mins to do 4out of5 rounds in one arena, how can it take 8 hours?

I said all achievements, which means completed all three large arenas.

Hey man, you can hit me up if you want. As far as I can remember I should be at a pretty similar level, but will have to take a look. ^^

Can't guarantee that I can and will play on fitting times, but I am up for playing a bit of boderlands again though (finished main story, took a couple of levels after that, and did some of that arena stuff as well, but ragequitted tehre as well).

Edit: I have a level 37 Roland, so might be a bit on the low side?

Maybe you can make a server on the Mad Moxxi's Underdome Riot mission and we can join.
I think enemies will have your level and we can kill them easier since my level is a bit higher than yours :)

Yay Borderlands 1! I had so much fun with this game.

This post reminded me to go back and play it. I finished Zombie Island but haven't done the rest yet.

Oh man, I just realized that the last time I played was on a previous computer. I really really hope it cloud-saves.

Edit: It does!

I think. I still have my saves, but it says I have finished Zombie Island, but there are still missions to do (even ones I've already done). And my inventory is scrambled up. I think I may have done something wrong.

Also, I'm having to relearn how to play, haha. Look at my achievement log, it looks like I haven't played since August of 2012?! No wonder I can't remember which keys do what.

Don't expect Mad Moxxi's to be any less boring than Knoxx. Those are really bad DLCs.

Knoxx has a ton of achievements which require you to be max level, it's really a pain. I haven't played the Moxxi's Large Arenas, and to be honest, why the hell would anyone think that was a good idea? I've played it recently and was gunning for all cheevos, but it's too painful and I don't feel like playing anymore right now, haha. So much for the completionist in me! I'll probably get around to it by the end of the century.

For Crawmerax

Crawmerax the Invincible.

If you want to solo him, you either have to use a glitch spot, or have insanely good gear and/or be maxed level. I've solo'd him as Mordecai, at about level 58 using the glitch spot, but have since done it without the glitch.

By any chance can you link me a good weapon so that I can compare it to my own? (a SMG or a Sniper)

My current weapons:

Sniper 1
Sniper 2
SMG
and my 4th weapon is a SMG with fire bullets.

You'll want one corrosive, one fire and one lightning weapon and one standard hard-hitting weapon. Good corrosive one would be a Maliwan Vitriolic Crux shotgun (doesn't matter if you haven't used shotguns, just need the corrosion), a Maliwan Hellfire SMG http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Hellfire_(Borderlands) and an Orion sniper rifle. You need these to kill off any of the minions that end up in the glitch spot / get too close to you.

Then the hard-hitting weapon is for killing Craw himself. I used a
Skullmasher http://borderlands.wikia.com/wiki/Skullmasher_(Borderlands) sniper I think. If you use the glitch spot, you'll either need a rocket launcher as well to take out his back spot, or get him to turn around which is really risky but it's what I ended up doing.

To get him to turn around, just jump out of the hole and back into it and crouch immediately and get ready to kill any minions that got in with you. When you're safe again, hopefully he'll be walking around a bit letting you hit his back a couple of times. Repeat until you've killed him.

Oh, you'll also want a good shield to help you survive in case a minion hits you before you get to the safe spot and some sniper rifle ammo regeneration on your class mod.

Look on YouTube for videos that show where the glitch spot is and how to use the rocket launcher to hit his back safely. Also, look on the wiki page for which minion to shoot with which elemental weapon. Craw himself is immune (?) to elemental damage I believe.

Sorry 2 of the links aren't clickys but the (Borderlands) bit breaks the clicky markup used by the site.

ITT: People who don't like Knox's Armory. O_O I was under the impression that it was considered the best of the BL1 DLCs, and certainly feel that way myself.

Anyway I'd love to help but I only have the first Borderlands for the 360. :( Also you can kill Craw at any level by pillar dancing (not a glitch spot). The only real problem becomes the Craw Worms.

The story of the DLC is good, but having to drive SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH is incredibly annoying and boring

The loot is good, the driving from point A to point B is so goddamn annoying I wish I had a retail copy of the game so I could break the DVD.

Those cost too little. A retail copy would have more impact.

Try playing on LAN with Tunngle or Hamachi. It's really a great game and it's a shame skipping it.

You will be fine. The playthroughs are independent of one another and there is a selection menu once you beat the first one.

Add me on Steam. I have high-level toons, and I never did get around to finishing up the DLC. I might even be able to bring some friends with me. D

The Circle of Duty missions are a pain in the buttcheeks. In the first one they introduce vehicles I got run over instantly because I just wasn't expecting it; instant-death. Goddamn retarded -- had to start the mission all over. Almost decided to not play it again as I had already had my share of arenas with Moxxi.

Oh well.

I really don't mind the vehicle, my strategy is to get to the borders of the arena and circle around it. I'm pretty "covered" at all times and I don't get run over.

The problem is that the waves take forever and I get out of ammo at Sniper/SMG/Combat Rifle before I finish...

I know, but I haven't met one in 44 levels for Mordecai...only for Siren/Soldier I think

The vehicle isn't a problem, it's just that it was the first time ever it appeared and it spawned behind me to boot. Not cool, man. Not cool. I really wasn't prepared.

I'd love to help out with the arena achievements, but I've only got max-leveled characters. It eliminates most of the challenge, but it should also be less tedious and boring :)

Claptrap Revolution collection things are a pita.
