Are rocket launchers less absolutely terribly in this game then?

Oh definitely. A good barrage of rockets will take down a constructor or similar miniboss in seconds. The ammo is expensive mind, and pretty rare when you don't have a vendor, and of course the reload speed is slow. Being a gunzerker helps, I have 50% chance not to consume ammo, 25% chance to add ammo to a clip instead of depleting it, and +48% clip size.

Went Commando. It's nice having an extra gun that auto aims on everything. That combined with a class mod that decreases the cool down of it by 25%, I can whip it out not too long after it's used up.
As for weapons, I use everything if the stats are good enough, but I always carry a sniper rifle.

Woo! Beat the main quest. Much more involving story this time around.
As well as some nice loot and a ton of eridium, you also unlock True Vault Hunter mode, and a lvl 50 side quest to kill a vaguely defined giant monster. Given that 2-3 levels in Borderlands can mean the difference between tough as nails, and complete cakewalk, I'm guessing attempting to fight something 18 levels my senior would not end well. The quest tracking system has therefore helpfully marked the mission as "impossible".

Hah, good to know.
I don't remember my rank, but I'm getting percentages around 2% for most categories with a rank under 1000.

Yeah, I was wondering about that too...
I want to summon a giant robot to fight for me dammit! Oh, and I want to have the actual game... :/

Is anybody at, or close to, level 50? Imma need some help with terramorphous the invincible. I'm told soloing him is technically possible, but I'm lacking either the skill or the gear.

Just beat the warrior on true vault hunter mode. Also joined up with some randoms online to fight terramorphous the invincible. We killed him 3 times, and wiped at least 6. The only decent loot I got out of it was an orange class mod for a Siren (which I'm happy to trade if anyone has any offers).

Welp, let's say I found out two things.
1) The mechromancer = bad-ass
2) She may seem more bad-ass because the bad-ass rank carries over from character to character (hence me one-shotting bullymongs and bandits very early on). I was able to down Boom Bewm and Flint with essentially just my Deathtrap.

Level cap is 80 now? How'd I miss that.
Terramorphous is both the easiest and hardest boss I think I've ever fought. Beating him the first time was one of my greatest struggles in gaming. However now that I have some decent gear he goes down in minutes (seconds if I equip the Bee).
Vermivorous is the only thing left that's a challenge. More than x2 the health of Terrramorphous. Although it's not the boss itself that makes it hard, it's staying alive surrounded by swarms of varkids long enough to summon him.

Yes yes woe is me thread necro blah de blah,
Now, is anyone up for assisting me in killing hyperius the invincible? I can get rid of his minions swiftly and get him down to a third health but I can never seem to kill the bugger (Level 40 assassin focusing on sniping tree and using grog nozzle for health) The Norfleet legendary he has a chance of dropping is very attractive to me and I'd like to cross the particular mission off the list
I believe you need the Captain Scarlett dlc to assist me, but if you do so then any drops are yours if you want (With possible exception to awesome snipers)

Oh and y'all should probably know that in prepping for the level 72 dlc coming next week gear box have jacked up the chances of getting rare/legendary shields. Due to this, I've now got The Sham, The Bee and Neogenator
