    i was asked for advice on how to play through successfully. The only real advice i could give was wear a health boosting shield, relic. and class mod. IMO he is the worst character out of the group. mainly because he is hard to play solo and not really a good group character.

    Zero is a complete other character compared to the others. Think of Zero as a ninja: deception and melee. If you have completed the Bloodshed tree you'll be able to hammer through large crowds. I never use health regen. When things get tricky usetransfusion nades and deception. Zero is a really strong character actually - just don't try to approach zero too much as a rifle guy

    well see that seems to be the problem when you first start out with him solo, you have no choice but to use other weapons cause its gonna be a while before you get to that mulitple deception skill.

    i'll second that too, its cool and all but not really good in a fire fight. sometimes if not most the enemies still spot you for the first two seconds your gone

    I guess this is off topic at this point but zero is a badass, especially end game. In basic game play (bloodshed) he tears through mobs faster than any other class (ok, you do have to have good gear, but that goes with anyone) and down the cunning tree is where you go for boss killing. Granted, especially in the boss killing department, you do have to be quite skilled at playing zero. But its possible to solo every boss in the game with zero. Sorry, I'm a self proclaimed zero loving zealot. If you have a problem with that, you can meet me at an undisclosed beach under a full moon and we will settle this with katanas.

    Im not bashing anyone that plays Zero as a main character. I know quite a few that play him more than others. Just not my style at all lol. But back on track, my favorite manufacturer has to be Tediore, just because I like throwing the weapons lol, Bandit a second because of the large clip size.

    Oh yeah I totally get you man, and you can bash zero all you want, I don't mind. I can't tell you how many times I've heard mockingly "You just set off my trap card..." if I let things like that bother me then I'd be one stressed out fool. But on topic, I like Tediore too, in fact my holy grail, which I should be getting soon in a trade, is the Tediore etech launchers (not the bunny) they are super fun, super rare, reload fast and blow stuff up.

    I've never even heard of a launcher like that, any idea how to obtain in besides trade?

    Unfortunately I'm pretty sure it's just a rare drop from anything that rare loot can be obtained from. Most people don't believe they exist and think its a troll. But there are plenty of youtube videos that prove otherwise. A buddy of mine on ps3 knows I've been looking for them so he recently traded for a few for me, I haven't gotten them yet to play around with though. I'm pretty sure I'll like them, I like to play with a wide variety of weapons.

    I love Jakobs Revolver and Hyperion Sniper Rifles. I don't use shotguns and smg, don't like them.

    I love Jakobs and Bandit for the weapon, and Pangolin for the shields. Not sure about the Relics, Grenades and Class mods

    I generally prefer Maliwan for their elemental properties. (Plus I think they look sleek.)
    Also Hyperion for accuracy, fast reloads and rate of fire.

    Bandit is also pretty cool, but I find they generally take too long to reload.

    Jakob's and bandit are awesome. Maliwan and Dahl are good on normal but Jakob's and bandit for true vault hunter. Vladof have some good assault rifles though. I don't really care for shields or class mods. With grenades I'll take anything that cause more than a standard explosion and relics that put up sheild, health or shotgun damage.

    For me, it also depends on the type of gun. For assault rifles and snipers, i want Vladof or Dahl. For shotguns, jakobs or hyperion ftw. Torgue rocket launchers cuz of the sheer explosivness. I prefer Maliwan or Bandit pistols.

    I admittedly love Torgue weapons. Not just cause of the DPUH, but because I love going to the Torgue Vending machines and buying stuff xD.

    My thoughts as well. I'd add Vladof and maybe Dahl to that list, for their awesome snipers.
