Your Favorite Borderlands Weapons

Post Reply New Topic

Okay so I posted about Borderlands 2 but I wanted to do this separately. Since I have seen pretty much all of the rarities in Borderlands (save for Avenger and Nemesis), I know what I like to use depending on which character I'm playing as. Let's discuss what guns you like in the game and why! Here's mine:

Ogre-this is probably the only Atlas gun I like. It's just smooth and explosively destructive and the description fits it to a T.
Bastard-high powered and just seems so badass for anyone to use. Love the dark look.
Revolution-I hate Vladofs but I love the fact that it has such a large magazine. You can just keep shooting from one Bandit to the next.
Serpens-the only Pearlescent that I like to use. Just knowing that it's one of the rarest rifles in the game and so toxic just makes it awesome. With Roland all suped up on ammo boosts, it's clip grows to past 255 and it is the ultimate Knoxx Killer.
"Draco"-this may not be legit but it's an S and S rifle with x4 fire and 100 plus clip usually as Glorious Massacre. I just love the S and S guns with highest elemental ratings.
Hornet-I love the look, fire rate and acid effect on this one. Good corossive repeaters are rare.
Firehawk-not as good as HellFire but it's a max level fire Maliwan.
Gemini-I keep this just because of the high damage and I love S and S.
Defiler-I think it does the best acid damage in the game. Plus it's just powerful and satisfying to use.
Chimera-I like the randomness to it.
Madjack-my favorite boss drop. It can be a pain to use sometimes with the wavy shots but there is something so satisfying about how it pops. Plus it's a Maliwan and I like explosive guns.
Aries-seems to have a low shock rating but it also always seems to hit with good shock damage and heals you.
Mashers-come on it's a magnum shotgun! Even better when you get a legendary one like Equalizer or Anaconda.
Vitriolic Crux-I think these are supposed to be called Plagues but they are excellent acid shotguns.
Crux-love explosive weapons with extended clips, Spiderants and Skags don't.
Striker-one of the only Jakob's guns I like. It just feels like it fires a nice tight cluster of pellets.
HellFire-probably my all time fave. To me is seems like it has the most destructive fire damage and I actually prefer the slower "thumper" types. Plus it is the perfect dual role play gun for Lilith I think.
b***h-my favorite Hyperion gun. Just looks awesome and does nice critical damage.
Anarchies-shotgun SMGs. I can shred anything with these and I love to use them on Knoxx, Crawmerax and Drifters.
Tsunami-I think it could be a better weapon but I just like the look and the fact that it's rare. Another good dual role play for Siren.
Nidhogg-perfect for htting Crawmerax's back.
Volcano-superb fire damage and can sometimes kill fire weak enemies in one hit.
Orion-another high level S and S. The gun and attack look awesome and can sometimes kill in one hit.
Cobra-just a badass explosive sniper. Also can one hit kill.
Ball Blaster-the effect is just gorgeous.
Thunder Storm-love the thunder rumble when you fire.

Just curious what platform do you play on?.

And i have so many fav guns that its hard to pick a few but the one i probably like the most is the rare Jakobs revolver _______Unforgiven preferably with scope and blade attachments wich is even rarer than normal ones fortunately i now own several different variations of it it references an awsome clint eastwood western of the same name the red flavor text is a line from the movie.

i also have a full set of rares and pearls as well as a character with a bunch of modded stuff like an assault rifle and class mod for soldier that gives you an 600+rnd mag with 400 damage a shot
