21 replies, posted
What's going on guys,
Here is the long awaited FINAL Looter's Guide! The final piece to the puzzle is Hyperion Weaponry.
It's been a long way since I made the first guide, and I hope you guys enjoyed all this work I threw into these guides!
If you are interested in learned a bit more about Hyperion's weapons, this guide might just do it for ya :)

Thanks for watching guys! I really appreciated all the support these guides have gotten over the course of time that I spent making them.
"I don't care for the sniper rifles at all, I want to hit them in the head first try, not without all this sway."
And then you got 3 consecutive headshots.
Excellent, was looking forward to this!
bit off topic but how can you get the preview screen to show an uploaded picture like that?
How did you get above level 30?
*edit*
um... I'll be right back.
*edit after going into Borderlands 2*
Oh... um... I am indeed level 50. I swore it was 30. Laugh and point at me, folks

Max level is 50, bro. Start playthrough 2 lol.
Hyperion SMGs are amazing. I've been using one since level 35 (now 47) and its still better than anything else. Its just like an extremely accurate bullet hose that gets better the longer I fire.
I like Hyperion sniper rifles the best due to the fact that they mostly have absolutely no recoil at all.
I didn't really get what he was saying about the sniper rifles, I'd say Hyperion is probably the best company for them, maybe tied with Jakobs, if you play shooters at all you should really be used to recoil on high powered rifles. Also, I can never really get used to Hyperion's smgs, I'm too used to firing in bursts that I just end up wasting tonnes of bullets.

Haha, I knew someone would comment on that :D
The sway is a serious problem, especially at longer ranges, which is where sniper rifles should USUALLY be effective in.
In the video I was trying to counter-act the sway, but like I said, at longer ranges, it is increasingly difficult to control the sway with smaller and smaller targets.
So Boarderlands 2 just came on sale, I'm interested but I found the first one really boring on my own. Is this game worth it if I'm just going to be playing singleplayer?

Yes
It'd be infinitely better if you play it with friends though

I beat the game solo. It's very fun, but after a while it gets a bit lonely. I suggest picking it up though, it's a great game that lasted me for about 2-3 months! Plus, they just released a new DLC so maybe you are interested in that as well.

What do you mean? The thumbnail on this website? You click insert video in the little toolbar and copy and paste the link there. It does all the work for you :)

You gotta be a youtube partner or something like that.
IIRC you gotta enable monetezation and then if you get enough like recurring views or subs or something they'll activate custom thumbnails.
I disagree with you on the hyperion snipers. The sway is negligible considering your next 5 shots are going to be on target every single time. You won't have to deal with recoil or any weapon sway after that first shot.

But if you are sniping from a distance with the element of stealth, then using a Hyperion sniper is highly impractical. It really depends on play-style.
You should put in a comment in your tediore video that says something about the nerf that changed so that ammo left in mag doesn't equate to more damage when you reload.

When did this happen? Are you certain? I would have expected a TON of comments complaining about that as soon as it occurred, but I have yet to see any.
Could you link me the proof? I just want to see the specifics before doing so.
Thanks :)

It was the last major update for BL2 that included the Bee nerf.

Are there patch notes anywhere?
So i'm planning out my E-tech guide, anything I should know before delving in? E-tech appears very complex.
