I actually did the same thing with the bridge before. Went flying off the prison ledge with a Racer and hit the bottom of the on ramp just wrong. Had to reset to get out, but that was okay as I was headed back to T-bone anyways. Oh God, is this thing on? Dude that is so mean! My quest for the Chimera still is not looking bright. Only good guns found were a nice Combustion Hellfire and a really good Friendly Fire shottie. |

| We all need to break sometimes. No worries. Good playing with you, Ratchet. EPIC RES today! Liam and I were working on the Circle of Duty Missions where you fight numerous waves of Lance soldiers of all kinds. A bunch of rocketeers had spawned and I was caught out in the open atop a slightly raised platform. Totally my fault, as I knew they were coming. I'm taking fire and I dive backwards off the platform, or try to anyway. Mid jump I get taken out. I want to try for a second wind, of course, but where I fell has no angle. And then I moved. What the...? I'm moving all around in circle for some reason. Note, I don't mean that weird thing that happens sometimes when your car blows. It's like I was running normally. I look all around thinking, "Where's Liam? I can't see him anywh--". I look down. I landed on Liam's head, and he's running all over the place trying to find me, then trying to get an angle to revive me. Fighting more against nearly uncontrollable laughter than against the clock, I manage to take out a rocketeer at the last moment, getting my second wind and finally falling off Liam's head. Total one in a million thing happening there. |

| I have not found any pearl yet. But doing the lost lewt mission with the lancer I got two volcano snipers and a nice pistol also with a x4 fire affect. Three runs through the armory and killing the sky scraper drifter multiple times I have not found anything too great. A shotgun with 700+ damage and 2x zoom and ammo regen was the best thing i got from the sky scraper. and a hellfire but with low fire rate. I want a chimera also and a decent hell fire. Those would work best with my siren. I guess I will move onto the crawlmera the invincible |

| Oh dude that was so funny. How we managed to get through that I don't know. Some very lucky saves. That last one when you turned in and I seen another round pop up I was like "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Not again!"
Crawmerax later. Who's up for it? |

| Roughly bout that. Maybe 30 mins after.
Cleaned out my bank yesterday after you went off and got rid of a load of crap. Now using two different sets, My alien weapons and standard weapons. So now I have a set I like time to mess it up with more new cool guns. |

| I need to clear mine out too. I hate to see it go to waste though. Oh, well. Not much to be done about it. I need to find a sniper that isn't fire based. Preferably Corrosive. The BAM BAM is nice, but it munches the ammo. That Crux upgrade you gave me yesterday worked like a charm. I traded a couple clip size and fire rate for a nice increase to accuracy and damage. Just what I needed against the Lance. I don't normally play as kamikaze as I did yesterday, but against half the things in that match my damage was too low from long range. Best tactic I could manage was to get in their face with the Crux and kill them quick, if they survived the first shots, then they were gonna die anyway from the acid and I'd get a second wind if they downed me. Thing is, it kept happening that I would kill them and then be downed by a last shot. |

| I noticed. Did the job though. BAM BAM really eats into the ammo, very useful against the devestators though. |

| Hey, Liam. No idea what went wrong. I got kicked from PSN, and it wouldn't let me back on for anything. Kept saying DNS error. But my computer is still working fine. I'll try to catch you later if I can. |

| Thanks for the invite yesterday, guys. I'm working a new hunter up, and only have him at level 15 or so. In with you 61 guys, that wouldn't have worked so well. My bro has a 21 or 22 siren I'm trying to catch up with, so we can party up. Anyone else got someone around there that'd like to party up, let meh know. |

| I've got a Lv 13 Siren as well, but I'm purposely keeping her at that level for now so A: I can focus on getting my Hunter to Lv 61, and B: so she can host a trophy run at Mad Moxxi's Underdome.
After that though I'd be glad to join up with ya RX.

| Should've stayed long enough for use to kill one thing, Rx. Would've made up those levels for you. Actually, the both of us reached level 61 in the last rounds of that mission. No worries, bud. I don't think I'll be doing a lower level character for a while. For now I need to focus on...killing that blasted Crawmerax. I did eventually get online today, and Liam and I got totally pwned by him. Well, it was more by those little hyper fast maggots of his. They take no damage from anything I do. At our best we only managed to take off a third of Craw's health. I gotta say, he completely quells the complaints that the game's bosses aren't hard enough. Anyone wanna help us out with him sometime? |

| You need to have your weapon selection just right for the crawdaddy. Each maggot is HIGHLY vulnerable to a certain elemental weapon damage. Crawdaddy only takes damage at the critical hit locations, and I don't think he takes any elemental damage at all. So match your element to the crawbabies, to scrape them off for a while, and then have a damage-death-respawn-repeat cycle with crawdaddy for a couple hours, and blamo, you're set. Except that the crawbabies do reappear. Stupid crawbabies... |

| Yeah the craw daddy is no joke but once you get a method down its not too bad. Just stay away from the edge, that stupid claw daddy knocked me off about 15 times. Green are highly susceptible to fire, I use my volcano sniper and kill them one shot with a critical hit. Worms are highly susceptible to electro wepons and the purple guys are highly susceptible to corrosive damage. Wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to switch between so many guns . Then craw worms are the worst, they are the ones that always get me. Anyway I've managed to take him out twice and just got a Jakobs bessie on the second go. just like this one [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] only mine has like 1200 + damage and a fire rate of .3 with a 6 round mag. Nothing else of great value really. |

| SUCCESS! Crawmerax has fallen, thanks to the combined efforts of Rev, Liam, and me. ^_^ It was touch and go a few times. We all spent a couple close minutes alone up there. You guys must've put most of the damage on him. I was always fighting off the minions. Oh, but it sure felt good to put the hurt on those maggots with that Thunderstorm. Really lucky to have found that right before the fight. Craw drops a TON of loot. Anyone else who's interested, we're planning another run at him, and maybe an Armory run just before, for this Friday. Come and share in the Lootsplosion. |

| Hmmm, An pre- farm, farm. That sounds like an awesome plan haha. Yeah that was defiantly a close match but in the end the craw daddy went down. one minute alone is soooo long. It seems even longer when you die. Waiting 30 seconds for the elevator to come down and then riding it up for another 30 seconds. One time on the way up I was riding it and saw one of you was in last stand and the other had just a little bit of health left. I just remember thinking comm'on you stupid elevator, go faster. You guys defiantly drew them little craw buggers away from me so I can put some damage on their daddy with my sniper I think that was key. I need to get my alien weapon proficiency up, You guys were kicking craw butt with them. I have only been through the armory twice, Have not really found anything good. But another go sounds great. Maybe we will get lucky with more ppl and the +2 rare item class mod. |

| I still have my scavenger mods as well so more loot equals more chance of success.
Man it was fun. Who did the killing blow? I was blacking outand he died just as I respawned and the only person I seen was Monkey.
Dang Revv your like a survival specialist, you were always just nearly there about to go into bleed out while we're on the bottom waiting for the elevator then boom health goes flying straight up. Siren really is good for taking on the craw.
I hate getting thrown off the cliff. I felt so good when that mutha died. |

| I got it, but only because of you. You were drawing his fire while I was flanking his remaining weak point and fighting off minions. Rev was on the elevator at the time (after only his third death, to my eighth or ninth or something ). Yeah, definitely Phasewalk for the win. I started out using my Scavenger mod, but switched to my health regen one early in the fight. +14 more heath per second was more needed at the time. I hoped to have a chance to switch back when he got close to dead, but the minions made it impossible. I've seen both effects on one mod before, but the regen was always too low to be useful. Hopefully we can find better ones at some point. Lookin' forward to Friday. |
