aah

usually, you compare one type of gun with the same type.
say:

>Handgun drops (or in a shop), I'm using (or switch) to my handgun.
>stats shown when looking at it will be compared to what you have equipped.

at this point, you compare damage - acc - reload speed - etc.
>main stat to compare would be Damage/Acc to your current one.
if this passes....
>Equip new gun and test fire it. Why?
a lot of weapons have gimmicks, so checking these gimmicks just to make sure these fit your playstyle or break it.
[burst fire, toss weapon like a grenade when reloading, extra melee dmg, etc.]
>if gun checks fine, keep and replace old one.

as the game progresses and start seeing new rarity Tiers...
White < Green < Blue < Purple < Orange
so if you have a blue Handgun, it would be pointless to even pickup a white handgun, and so forth.

what's the confusion on the guns ?
I look at the one I have equipped, then the one on the ground that just dropped, and I don't know the difference to know which one is better. It happens with every single drop.

It's what ruined the game for me, twice.

What part of it is confusing you? Elemental affinities and stuff? Which stats are better?
The stats.... I fail before the elemental stuff even starts becoming a huge focus. Right around where the purple one is introduced.

It's really the stats, I can understand elements.

Well, green arrow means better red means worse. Otherwise it's just damage (x# = it shoots more than one bullet), the amount of spread that the weapon has (accuracy), speed at which it fires and reloads, and magazine capacity. All the bonus stats pretty much explain themselves. Here, drew this. should explain it

i forgot to add, for automatic weapons the fire rate = the number of rounds fired per second. For semiautomatic weapons fire rate = number of shots you can fire over a certain period of time by pulling the trigger. For burst fire weapons, the speed of the burst is also defined by this stat.

Accuracy also affects scope wobble.

Scrub mobs will most, likely drop scrub weapons, ugly chest will also most likely drop scrub weapons, so have to look for those flashy chests, quests weapons or boss drops.

some stats might seem rather high on a weapon, but acc or other stats might suck, this is why you test fire/reload it to try out it's performance.

Eventually you get to a point in borderlands where every item you have will have its value really found based on the red text/special effects.

I really can't remember the last time I equipped a weapon/shield/grenade that didn't have a special/hidden effect aside from using a low level slag bouncing better for pete farming on Krieg.

So I'm looking at the borderlands TPS forums on steam trying to see if anyone has made a list of legendaries yet. No luck.

What I did find out is that if a homosexual character is in a game a ton of people get really stupid and ranty on forums lol.

oh man, cant wait until they find out that there's like 5 of them. then we'll really see a explosion of blood from their hemorrhoids.

p.s. i'm glad that the reason we don't have lasers in BL2 is explained in the best *** way possible. anyone whose done the sidequests knows what I'm talking about.

Finally got home. Kinda disappointed to read about the developments in FFXV, but at this point it was almost to be expected. I wouldn't doubt SE is forcing production to wrap things up sooner than they should for the sake of earlier release for that early quarter profit.

Also I'm a fan of partaking in the role of a female protagonist not so much for the sake of eye candy, but rather to experience things through the perspective, or mindset of a particular woman set within her boundaries and circumstance. See if I'm able to tear down tropes or enable them in different scenarios to my advantage for character development so to speak.
