Its a Crawmerax Boil!

Well the final head hunter pack for Borderlands 2 "Sir Hammerlock vs The Son of Crawmerax" dropped today. The original title I wanted to use was way too long because I was trying to make a crawfish head joke that just didn't work.  I want to avoid spoilers so I will only say this if your on the fence about getting this one. There is some interesting dialog that not only lets you see how everyone is getting along since the end of the game, but you get a little bit more back story for each vault hunter. And a second round with the over grow crawfish is not impossible to do solo, but he is pretty damn tough. Overall like most of the head hunter packs it will take about an hour or two to play through the main segment. So for $3 you can get one final raid boss and some fun chest hunts that give you something else to spend your iridium on.

I give it a 8 out of 10. I think it a fitting piece to wrap up the BL2 world with.

I give the Arab girl that I'm guessing was matched to this blog based on racist notions about what a "borderland" might be a 10/10.

damn, I'd let her cross my border. 

Anyway, I haven't gotten into these yet, but maybe I will give the new Vita version a shot, that would be fun.  Though I heard these are more fun co-op.

Multiplayer can be a blast with friends. Personally I have just as much playing solo. Although raid bosses are much eaiser with some help.

Wink lol The one there now is for ITT Tech. So therefore, the way to a hot Arab woman's heart is to get educated and boil some crab for her.

As I was playing Paper mario thousand year Door the other day, I was watching my friend continue in B2. He was farming harder than a Diablo player, going from boss to boss and popping them for their Eridium and showers of loot! I made fun of him of course and said he was playing a loot-em-up... Then he said I was playing a baby game... It's what we do.

lol! It really is a loot-em-up. I have been playing BL1 recently because I never beat the original Crawmerax. Thing is he is lv 61 and I am only lv46 working on play through 2. But I have heard he can drop some really good stuff. So its worth the effort.

Damn! Level 60 must be tough to get to. My friend is still in the 50's after 13 days of play-time (300 hours).

Well, actaully by the time I completed the main game and all the dlc I was at lv43. I raided Gen Knox's bunker one last time and started Play2 (its the equivalent to TVHM in BL2). You get to start the game over with all you exp and gear and the enemies will be scaled up to you. Or at least sort of. I blew through the Firestone area becaue I was 10 levels ahead of most of the enemies.

In Bl2 once you hit lv50, the best way to get some levels is head into Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode. This mode can be reset as many times as you want. Do this and focus on story missions and you can level up reasonable quick. I currently have My Zerker, Siren, Mechromancer at lv72,Commando lv64, Assasin lv52, and Psyco at lv 41. But I have been playing it since it came out. I don't even want to know haw many hours I have put in.lol

Wow, that's some levels. My buddy is just starting UVHM, so that's probably why he hasn't leveled as fast. He likes to run-and-gun like he was on God Mode in Doom. You don't get much experience for that as I like to remind him every few minutes.

The game tells you play time on the screen when you choose a character's save file. (I forget what they call that in the game). I've been very conscious of play time as of late. I like recording how long I play a game and then comparing it to other games I've played at the end of the year.

Yeah other than killing bosses, the only way to get some good exp from kills is to piggyback a friend who is a few levels ahead of you. This is also a good way to get a nice head start with a new character.

I'll have to check my profiles tonight. If your friend has already logged 355 hours, I 'm really curious to see how much time I have sunk into this game.Surprised
