Haha, I keep wasting ammo with those ones.
I almost never wait for the auto reload, so I find myself selling those ones pretty quick unless they have awesome stats... I found my first slag weapon (that wasnt a grenade mod) the other day - it was a pistol that exploded when you reload... So I kept it until I found my 2nd slag weapon - another pistol, with all better stats, no grenade style reload, and burst fire while zoomed
I'm up to approx 12 (8 is the minimum, but it can be up to 12) items I've always got in my backpack, plus my equipped stuff
I try to always have 1 of each weapon class, and 1 of each elemental type damage, shock being the least useful IME.
How do you guys handle the big mofos that have those iron shields?
Since I'm a siren, I just phase lock them and shoot around the shield, but aside from that, grenades seem to be the only way I can do much damage to them...
Also, I'm not sure if the missions just scale to your level, or if its because ive been doing as many side missions as possible, or whatever, but
***SPOILER ALERT***
Just after the mission where Sanctuary gets teleported
*** END SPOILER ***
My missions went from being fairly easy lvl 13-14 enemies (I just got to lvl 18) to moderately difficult lvl 19-20 enemies...
My fire elemental smg hardly makes a dent in them now
I had to switch to my corrosive smg (almost triple base damage, and similar elemental damage)
I'm excited for when they release the Mechromancer too.
I could talk about this game for days
