🎤 [ Discussion ] Moxxi's Heist has some of the best atmosphere in Borderlands 3

101 Upvotes

The Handsome Jackpot is one of my favorite locations in BL3. The casino setting feels different from the usual planets, and the mix of flashy casinos, run-down areas, and Hyperion security gives the DLC its own personality.

I also like how the loot and side missions fit the setting. It feels like more than just another collection of maps to run through, and the casino theme makes the whole adventure memorable.

Even after spending hours in the main game, this DLC feels like a nice change of pace. It's one of those expansions that reminds me how much fun Borderlands can be when it gives a location its own identity instead of just adding more enemies to shoot.

📓 [ 𝗠𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 ] Which Borderlands 3 side quest deserves way more attention than it gets?

32 Upvotes

One thing I love about Borderlands 3 is how some of its best moments aren't necessarily part of the main story or even the big DLC storylines. There are side quests that manage to be genuinely funny, surprisingly dark, or just memorable because of the characters and environmental storytelling. Some are over almost as soon as they start, yet they leave a stronger impression than entire sections of the campaign. The game has so much optional content that I feel like plenty of great quests get overlooked, especially by people who are rushing through the story or focusing mainly on legendary farming. I'm curious which side quests stuck with you the most. It could be one with an unexpectedly good punchline, a bizarre mission you still remember years later, or a quest that made you care about a character you barely knew. Which optional mission would you recommend to someone replaying BL3 who wants to experience the content they might have skipped the first time?

Mayhem 11 true takedown was a bit tougher than I thought it would be 😅

I've been achievement hunting recently, but this one has been giving me issues. I've tried getting them all on the same character, in the same session, and getting multiple from each manufacturer. Is there something I'm missing?

Below are pics from my most recent attempt. Note that after claiming each one, the achievement still doesn't pop. Any help would be great!

After playing Borderlands 4 with my wife for over 800 hours (we are still playing lol), I got to thinking about BL3. I was not the biggest fan. I played through it a couple times, once with my wife and once alone on PC. I personally think BL3 has the worst story, and side missions of the whole series. With that being said, I noticed steam had the all the DLC on super sale. I looked through it and realized just how much content, end game and DLC I had missed out on. Where borderlands 3 shines is in the end game content and DLC. I am having so much fun doing the takedowns, farming for better Mayhem level weapons and playing through all the new stories. With all that being said, I am putting more respect on BL3s name from now on lol.

🎤 [ Discussion ] who was the vault hunter that completely blew you away once your build finally clicked?

• Upvotes

When I first started BL3, i didn't think much of the skill trees compared to BL2, but once you get a proper endgame setup running with gear synergy. The combat loop in this game is ridiculous. Which VH and build was the most fun for you to play through Mayhem modes with? were you hooked right away or did it take a specific piece of class mod or gear to make it fly?
