Intro Script For Algorithm Stuff
There are plenty of rare items in borderlands 2, a bee shield with good parts, legendary class mods, friends that want to play with you, the farms are endless. But there’s one type of item rarer than the rest, so rare you can’t even get it until UVHM, Pearlescents. Pearlescents are borderlands 2’s rarest type of item, and are questionable in terms of usefulness but are still beloved nonetheless, So I decided to try and beat borderlands 2 with only pearls.
The rules for the run are
1. I can only have pearlescent gear equipped
2. My action skill, stock grenades, and cars are allowed
3. Bar is turned off
Now I typically do all of my challenge runs in Normal mode where you can’t get pearls… at least not normally. There is one way however. If you win the jackpot on the tina DLC slots you have a chance at getting a pearl.

I watched this video while eating a tuna sandwich, the sandwich contained mayonnaise, canned tuna, garlic salt, and Cholula hot sauce. I had two tablespoons worth of daisy brand cottage cheese on the side with a glass of Indian summer brand apple juice as a drink.

I've been farming them for two weeks for Seraph Crystals 😅 I've gotten four Pearls (Tunguska, Sawbar, Stalker, and Stormfront), and I just got 120 crystals tonight and bought a Patriot. Trying to do a Seraph-only Mya on Normal Mode. I would say, the slot machines in the Badass Crater Bar are the best source of Eridium in 'pre-game'. You can sell all the level 30 gear you get from Tina DLC and take the money to the bar. Good resource swap.

Controversial, but mine is Control Core Angel for favorite level. I was a Roland main in my first ever trip into the Borderlands, and watching him die ripped my heart out and set my soul ablaze like Lilith. Everything before didn't matter an inch, I had seen my hero shot in the back and disrespected and NOTHING from that point would stop me from killing Jack. In fact, my hatred carried so far as I personally killed Jack as EVERY Hunter, my favorite being Krieg as I finally had the chance to RIP AND TEAR THAT TRAITOROUS SLIME- Sorry, I can't help myself sometimes. I actually love Angel, but I would kill her a thousand times over JUST to hurt Jack a thousand times more.

Not sure how I've never come across your content before but absolutely loved this video. Easy subscribe here! As for my favorite map I've got to go with Flamerock Refuge. The music is so distinct and unique from anywhere else in BL2 and I'll never forget playing that DLC day one when it dropped with all my closest friends. Hope BL4 can bring back the magic of BL2.
