Loving playing Mechromancer! Deathtrap is a tank and I'm investing in the Ordered Skil tree. Doing +262.5% damage with a shotgun is absolutely lethal and so much fun to play. Originally I played a Gunzerker so actually WANTING low magazine weapons is really weird! Can't wait to start playing around the Discord ability!

And there's the catch... I'm a compulsive reloader.
Originally I had that problem, but I have a one-shot shotgun with the Smaller, Faster, Lighter skill so it reloads super fast!

Don't know about anything else but that's not true for the 360 version.

Why not use the Infinity? I feel it would be kinda overpowered with some of her skills, even if it's just a pistol.

OT: Well, now I need to reevaluate my plans. I had planned to power level my Commando to 50 this weekend and achievement farm in preparation for this, but now that it was released a Week early, everything is screwed over. I'll deal with it on Friday I guess.

I am unfamiliar with the Infinity. I assume it is a pistol by what you say but is it supposed to be some kind of super pistol?

Learn to work around each other.

Legendary pistol dropped by Doc Meercy, infinite ammo, bottomless clip, no catch.

Huh?

Mechromancer is out today?

FUUYUUCK YEEEESSSHHH.

My friend and I are totally going to start a new playthrough now. Two mechromancers running around is a force to be reckoned with. >:D

The FiM refrences are just the icing on this surprise cake.

That seems useless for Anarchy. Seeing as you have to run out of ammo in a clip and reload to gain one to the stack.

It's true for the X360 version, but it doesn't affect everyone. Gearbox forums are ablaze with rage right now. 70% stuff being deleted and 30% there being MLP references all up and down Gaige's skilltrees.

Preferably you'd want a weapon with some way to counter the accuracy penalty, like a Law.

Nice. I was thinking about going down the middle tree. That should eat up shields like crazy. This seems like a good solo character to play with when your friends aren't on so you don't outlevel them by too much.

I like her (only character that actually interested me since I got my ass handed as the siren) but she is OP...

Ha! It's funny because there are so many other references and Easter eggs in the game from the movie Seven to Minecraft. Of course MLP was going to come into play somewhere.

Check out the skill tree [http://www.borderlands2.com/us/skilltree/mechromancer.html]; it's bat shit crazy. I can't for the life of me think of what I would do with that character :/
Have fun?

That's what I'll be doing once I uncinch my purse enough to buy BL2 and the Mechromancer.

YES!

I won it from a slot machine. Hit the jackpot and that is what it gave me.

By 27 you can have the slash, lazor and shield heal on deathtrap. The question is; does it use them automatically or is there a command?

I really can't remember anything in recent memory that released early instead of late or on time. Good going Gearbox :D

(I never got the Infinity. Maybe it was because I did that quest at like lvl 15)

Well the slash and lazor are done automatically, so I assume the same can be said for the shield.
