WretchedOwlPosted 3/7/2013 6:03:25 AM | So I'm currently running an explosive Axton build, as mentioned above, and its pretty badass no doubt.
My normal rotation includes the Cobra as a sniper and a Meteor Shower (dmg 69k x12)
I was just wondering if people prefer the Longbow over the Cobra or not for this type of build. I've never used a Longbow before, as I still can't get one to drop, but I'm wondering if its something I should more actively pursue.
As for the Meteor Shower, I just can't find anything out there that's better as far as explosives go, but a close second might be my Bouncing Bonny. Any suggestions for a better grenade? --- A lying tongue hates those it crushes, but a flattering mouth works ruin. -- GT: Wretched Owls |
Azrael0206Posted 3/7/2013 6:11:07 AM | Cobra all the way man. Just such a better weapon.
Meteor shower is amazing for axton, and like you said the bouncing bonnie is a good bet too. If you have some spare crystals get yourself an explosive Crossfire. I really like the duration and area of effect on it.
For some serious damage output though... Dont think I'm crazy.. Get yourself a longbow slag singularity. These bad boys are just massive mob killers. Line up your targets and fire some explosive rounds to deal some serious damage. --- Assistant Manager at Foveroula and Acid's Pawn Shop Pokemon Black FC: 2709 5858 9913 |
WretchedOwl (Topic Creator) Posted 3/7/2013 6:18:57 AM | Now that you mention it, a singularity does sound like a good idea for large crowds. and I'll keep my eye out for a crossfire, I've never actually used one before. --- A lying tongue hates those it crushes, but a flattering mouth works ruin. -- GT: Wretched Owls |

Want to try out a longbow ? I got one to drop last night, you are welcome to try it out. Consider it a loan, if you like it, it's yours. --- A pessimist is just a optimist with more experience.

WretchedOwl (Topic Creator) Posted 3/7/2013 6:30:51 AM | I appreciate the offer, but I prefer to get my own loot most of the time. and as mentioned before, I figure I'm better off with the Cobra anyway. Thanks though. --- A lying tongue hates those it crushes, but a flattering mouth works ruin. -- GT: Wretched Owls |

your other dad sayzPosted 3/7/2013 7:37:08 AM | I also plan on using a cobra on my axton. Just not sure which is the best. I heard tiny tinas would be the best. I'm not sure why though. --- Currently Playing: Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (Xbox 360), FarCry 3 (Xbox 360) I'm on one. |
fakesnoop77Posted 3/7/2013 7:44:06 AM | This is my rough build for Axton right now. I may be slightly out on some points; -
http://talent.87bazillion.com/2/commando.php?50055150415005014200011000000000
This build focuses on a mixture of explosives and AR damage.
Equipment I use; -
Torgue Ravager DP Unkempt Harold Scorpio Mongol (FFYL) Deadly Bloom shield or Big Boom Blaster
I also keep a lot of Dahl stuff in my back pack to take advantage of 'Duty Calls' skill
I also have a +30% explosive relic and also switch around between a Rifleman Mod, Heavy Gunner Mod or Sheriffs Badge Relic depending on the situation. --- Fitter, happier, more productive, like a pig in a cage on antibiotics |
