so i chose Axton 'cause turrets are awesome, but then i got given a sniper rifle... which is kinda awesome too. didnt expect to enjoy sniping this much. im not that great in CQB at the moment, need more practice.

should i switch to Zer0 and get a bunch of snipey type skills or should i carry on as Axton so i have the turret for when i need to CQB?

Any character can snipe.

Its just that Zero gets the most critical bonuses, through skills, which makes him the best character for critical shots. Its not that other characters suck at sniping, but its more of getting more or less benefits for using a sniper rifle, and hitting the critical area.

i have 80 longshot kills so far, 70 of which were headshots Razz

im only level 7, so a reroll wont lose too much time Razz

This is the order that I have found characters to be most fun to least fun.

Axton
Maya

Absolute Void

Zer0
Salvadore=Geige

Zer0 is the best for sniping due to critical hits and such, but Axton can snipe just fine.

I've always liked Zer0, his cunning tree is really fun to play with.

the only thing i will mention about sniping with axton is sometimes its hard to find headshots when the turret is shooting the same target. those numbers get in the way

i havent had to use my turret when sniping yet Smile
im sticking with Axton, might play Zer0 if i decide to play it again down the line.

how do you get regenerating ammo? i saw it in a few youtube videos, is that a class mod or something?

I know there's a lot of class mods for it for the zerker, maybe a absord shield?

ill keep an eye on shields and mods Smile

it would be very handy to have a regenerating sniper rifle. i often run out of bullets, but i bought some extra ammo capacity at the black market so that should help a little Smile

Yeah, I've had a huge problem with ammo since I made x25 damage guns that take 9 ammo a shot. I need to mod the ammo pools.

1. Absorb shield
2. Salvadore Gunzerking
3. Salvadore class mod, Team bullet regeneration
4. There are weapon characteristic and skills that adds bullets randomly once in a while.

Are you sure you were not watching a video where someone was playing with another person using Salvadore?

I ALWAYS use bullet regeneration class mod when playing Salvadore, so that EVERYONE in the team benefits from it.

Torgue shotgun is pretty darn awesome.

And Torgue will always be in my hearts for giving me first legendaries. One Legendary Assault Rifle and one Legendary Grenade Mod.
