Now that the full Borderlands experience is fresh in my memory, here are some things I’m looking forward to/hoping to find in Borderlands 3.

Are you playing solo or with a group?
Maybe FL4K for solo play and Amara for grouping? I've heard she's not so great solo. FL4K, on the other hand, is great at it due to the pet (who can also rez you) and his many sources of health regeneration/stealth if you go that route. Just something to think about.
Who will you be playing as?
I'm going to play Amara first because she's the one I like the look of the least. I decided to be backwards about it for... fun.
Every class can do fine... but, yeh, with Salvador I was soloing some Raid bosses without using glitches. It wasn't easy, at all, but it's pretty much impossible for most of the other classes. There's exceptions though, like using Zer0s Bore skill with that sniper from the hammerlock DLC (I forget it's name). You could, literally, kill raid bosses solo in about 5 seconds. He was definitely the best boss killer, if you had the right loot.
Damnit... YOU GOT ME TOO!!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
"his many sources of health regeneration/stealth if you go that route" You...you used the wrong pronoun. YOU MONSTER!!! REEEEEEE!!!
On a serious note, FL4K does look like a great choice for solo players and a lot of the people who have played the game already have pretty much stated the same. I like pet based classes so my first play through (when BL3 comes out on Steam) will be with FL4K.
Is a man not entitled to the herp of his derp?
Remember, I live in a world where juggalos and yugioh players are real things.
I am keeping an eye on this one, but will probably wait for a big discount.
On a side note after an hour I went back to my other games- the game n story feels boring n lifeless...not sure why. I’ll give it a couple of more hours, but Iam not impressed so far.
It's easily a 10/10 for me.
The only thing that bothers me so far is that the big map rotates to the direction you're facing when you open it.. and there's no north indicator on it. It's just a little annoying for me is all.
Yeah, the 3D map is a little annoying. Having a good time so far, overall. Will play more over the weekend.
Glad you are enjoying FL4K! I'm having a good time with Moze. I just tend to spawn the mech into more open area engagements to avoid any issues. It's only up every 90s so I tend to just think of it as an oh shit button in larger fights more than anything else right now. It requires a lot of point investment to really be more than that and points are precious in the early levels, so I'm not putting anything into it right now.
This is the Amara build I'm looking to try when I eventually get around to playing her.
EQ1, EQ2, SWG, SWTOR, GW, GW2 CoH, CoV, FFXI, WoW, CO, War,TSW and a slew of free trials and beta tests
This is what I've theory crafted for my first build. Might change depending on certain legendaries though.
- Some health increases and reduced damage taken
- Tons of health regen and elemental damage health leech
- Lots of damage buffs when phaselocking and when damaging with phaselock
- All attacks do elemental damage no matter what weapons I'm using (not sure if it applies to melee or not but it's not a melee build)
- Max elemental status spread, elemental status damage and standard elemental damage
- A lifesaver with a 2 minute cooldown cos I had a spare point
Main action skill is the phaselock that bashes the area with fists, plus singularity added to suck enemies into it.
