The turrets in thousand cuts are immune to AoE damage it is a known bug that is ignored for most challenges involving an AoE as only damage. Jolzdude139 and LisGasmask666 have runs that have issues with the turrets that are ignored for the challenge.

If you didn't already know, constructors have a 90% damage resistance to grenades. Hence why they are so hard to kill with the sky rocket, on top of resisting the fire damage.

Dude the BA constructor nuking itself is going to be super fucking helpful for me in the future grenade runs! Great run homie, surprised you didn’t use pull the pin for free skyrockets but I respect the commitment!

fun fact, jessup will open the gate immediately if you turn your fps to capped 30 fps before getting close to him

12:29 There is indeed a limit, I think if it gets shut down 8 times it becomes invulnerable to damage and you just need to keep killing, I'm pretty sure it's because UVHM would be almost impossible to complete for like 90% of players if they actually had to properly defend it.

damn, this video was actually really enjoyable. It blew my mind when I saw the subscriber count. This has already prob been said, the production level and quality could of easily fooled me into thinking this channel was mega big. KZfaq algorithm seriously sleeping on this channel, I hope it blows up because more people deserve to watch this good content

Fun fact, there is a limit on how many times the beacon can be repaired. After 8 times it becomes indestructible

Something funny about the whole “making Sanctuary fly” plan is that it actually makes it easier for the moonshots to hit Sanctuary, because technically they are closer the helios station than before, meaning there’s less travel time from the barrel of the moonshot cannon to Sanctuary.

Fun fact: not only can you repair the beacon without any consequences, after a certain amount of breakages (9? it's been a while) it becomes invincible anyways. Also my guess is that the reason he keeps Angel on Pandora has something to do with needing her Siren powers to do things and stuff. I mean the guy literally used his daughter as a psionic battery and had her establish a rapport with and betray people for years so I don't think we really need to debate the question of whether he actually ever really loved her. (Also the idea that Krieg is just calmly standing there while Jack monologues to him during the Lilith abduction is hilarious.)

So I feel like axton would have made this easier but at the same time Krieg buffs almost exclusively fire damage so I think that is what your going for( I Haven't yet finished the video so i don;t know why he picked Krieg this is just my assumption) Edit: Am now further into video and understand why krieg was used good choice

This was a great first splash into your content. Well done!

Dang the commitment to this is impressive good work loved the video

i can already tell your career is gonns be promising, quality of recording is good, same with audio, your near monotone non monotone voice is honestly very enjoyable (at least to me) because its expressive while also being deadpan, and the rather restrictive rules you have in place sets you apart from others. pro tip: for jessup at sanctuary if you put your FPS at 30 in the settings before you enter the map he will function normally.

What a cool channel. Fun run, commentated super well, and with a really sweet little outro.

the bunker may have been his coolest defense robot he ever built, but the greatest one has to be Loader Bot from tales from the borderlands.

I've been looking for this one. Thank you

i’ve never thought to completely unequip so it’s a little bizarre seeing Borderlands without a gun in the corner of the screen lol

Not sure if anyone's mentioned this yet but if you just let the fast travel beacon die 8 times you get special dialogue where jack basically calls you a weakass and calls off the loader assault cause he thinks you're too weak to be a problem so you skip the rest of the fight.

I don't care what anyone says about it, CSR is my favorite grenade mod, bar none. Absolutely lethal against flesh, fun to use if you aim a bit lower to counter its physics, AND scales to your level! In other words, all hail CSR!

I am of the "The Skyrocket is the best grenade evah" camp. Great to see it get some love because so many people just hate it. While it's physics do suck (I think it's intentional due to fireworks blowing off the user's hand/fingers so often), it's just so powerful and the fact it scales is awesome.

I absolutely loved this video keep making great content

hey SpuddyCube, I've gotta say i found you recently and have been really enjoying all the videos I've seen so far. keep up the good work!

If you didn't know the beacon can be repaired like 8 times i think. if it dies again you repair it and it becomes invincible.

18:10 holy shit dude this part killed me 💀 Fr though. Best video i've seen all week. you have a new sub now!

I was wondering how the baby turrets would be handled, glad you didnt consider them a run killer

8:45 Protip for Axton grenadiers, the magic missile from Dragon’s Keep is able to passively regenerate grenades as well. Murderlin’s Temple, Badass Wizards, 10% drop chance, slag

Honestly never thought it would be done just cause of how annoying it is yet here you are and with banger video quality can’t wait for more vids

How does this video not have a lot more views, it was funny as hell. Keep it up bro!

I love the fact that the road to the bunker and the room after the bunker are harder than the actual boss fights.

6:00 GOOD OLE PRIVATE JESSUP. Gotta love him. Taking 30 seconds to open the gate EVERYTIME.

The game was originally coded for 60 FPS max. Lots of things break when at higher FPS. That's why the guard at sancuary just stands there doing nothing for so long.

Holy crap I come across this godsend of a channel and... well let's be honest your narration is s teir

Honestly jacks biggest mistake in the game is deadass just that, not throwing money at the problem (the player) until its solved (dead)

Wow that was a really good video! Surprised that you have less than 100 subs. Subscribed! (Also don't worry about the two torrents on the way to Bunker, they're bugged)

Wow man im surprised you arent bigger like truthfully this is some of the most fun content ive watched in a while i hope i can make content as good as you

I never knew constructors can kill themself LOL

I always thought about trying this run!

The council finds your video pleasing. We shall watch your career with great interest. You have great promise our challenge runner

" im sure theyre fine".....lmao

I really LOVED this video

Amazing video.

Crazy this has 40 views, good stuff man

Definitely subscribed!

I've been using the sky rocket a lot, and I find the best angle is a thirty degree arc downwards at the peak of a jump while 100 feet from your target. You see dat right there? Dats a parabola. Only a witch could pull off a parabola of that nature.

I’ve seen enough BL challenge videos in my life to where the only thing that’ll keep me engaged in them at this point is good commentary. You sir have the gift of gab! It’s the commentary that sets the challenge apart from others, and you’re doing a great job at it! Surprised I haven’t come across your channel before, or at least I don’t think I have, but I’m watching now!

Forgot the guys name but I have to agree the "Baby Turrets" dont count as a run ender. Their immunity to many different things, such as the Rocket, is accidental and a bug not intended. So they arnt a run killer as you allow exceptions for them since they are a glitch.

Hope your sub count blows up rapidly bc of this video 👍👍

I didn't realize until playing through with a fourth character that the CSR grenade leveled up with my character, so at first I wound up selling it early. But once I kept it, then acquired either a Lightning Bolt or Magic Missile grenade mod from the Dragon Keep DLC (replenishes grenade ammo at a rate of 1/30 sec.), I had tons of fun clearing out non-mechanical enemies (and much less fun killing myself when I didn't get the aim right)!

watching your channel grow has been making my week man keep up the great content 🙏

If anyone doesn’t know, the Contraband Sky Rocket is useless in OP levels because it doesn’t scale to them, so it’s best if you want to make it part of your build that you rely on a lot, to skip OP levels and just use it at lv. 80.

I’ve used that grenade for so long

Spud, you don't need to fight the enemies at the med vendor on your way to flint. You can jump on the railing and jump onto the roof or jump on the barrel (the one on fire) and jump over. There are explosive resistant shields that you can find that you might be able to scrounge up if you farm for it.You can park the car by the pipeline and just get in it to trigger the obj.

I only use the skyrocket, only time i dont is to test out another one or if i needed a specific element, but skyrocket is the bestttttt ❤

Dude you deserve so many more subs, like all the subs... Genuinely amazing video, now going to go back and watch the rest of them! Keep on making awesome content and I for one will be here for it every time!

Bro, he sounded like Krillin from Dragonball Abriged XD 23:41

first great video love your video next if you didn't know the two door turrets in the run up to Bunker are immune to some damage types (all splash damage I think) if it was on purpose the word immune would pop up and not nothing at all

Trust me you're not the only one. I've also always been confused about what happens to your player character in the Borderlands cutscenes

i just found this channel in my recommended videos and i'm loving the vids keep up the amazing work! i'll be binging these vids

The amounts of times I killed myself whilst using the grenade indoors is absurd

You know, this would be a fun challenge in bl3 with moze

i can’t tell you how many times i rewound the video to try and find the intro lol

New BL KZfaqr that’s chill/knows the game and doesn’t have gearbox in their pocket ? Sign me up

Wow I’m surprised your channel isnt bigger this was an amazing video and I would’ve gone insane trying to do this

I feel like I just watched Micheal cera play borderlands

As you can tell a lot of borderland die hard fans out there and this was really awesome. Reminded me a lot of when senza I think was his name did videos for borderlands like this. Really great stuff. keep it up.

12:28 If I remember correctly you can only repair it eight times and after that the game stops making you repair it and just makes you kill the robots.

enemies can be killed from full health and shields with enough damage in one shot, there's even a BAR challenge for it. my headcanon is that as an NPC, roland follows the same rule. what i want to know is HOW ROLAND EVEN GOT INTO CONTROL CORE. the player is the only one who went through the process of opening the "door that only opens for jack" so you should be the only one who can go through it. if roland just went through some hole in the cliff that he just knew about already, then that should have been the whole plan in the first place, right? my best guess is that the door just doesn't close behind you. that's about what i'd expect out of the designer of the """greatest defense bot ever built"""

oh my god i never knew you would reach this many subscribers. Congrats its been sometime since i have even commented are just kinda existed in da comments i guess its nice being a og subscriber?

From what I remember seeing on other challenge runs, those miniturrets are super wierd.

Honestly, in normal playthroughs, I stick with the skyrocket until Dragon Keep. The damage is too good. But once I get a Magic Missile I swap to that. Slag without swapping weapons is more useful than occasional explosions.

good video !!

14:33 Maybe the bird as well as that ring of fire thing hit you at the same time? If I'm not mistaken you CAN get "one shot" by enemies using certain guns by Torgue or Maliwan that have splash damage because the bullet damage and splash damage are considered separate hits.

Don't know if anyone else said this but you can break the pipe just driving the car next to the stairs. It has a big hit box

I think if you break the beacon 9 times it gets a bubble shield that can break!

The Sky Rocket definitely gives me pain every now and then with all the times it either instantly explodes when I throw it too low and it hits the ground or bounce off. But when you get the trajectory down and it perfectly goes where you want it to like a doorway or the perfect elevation where a group of enemies are, it's a satisfying experience. I recently played my NVHM Krieg where I got to A Train To Catch and I decided to respec my skill points for the Bloodlust tree and I found that the skill that gives you increasing melee damage but shortens fuse times to be a terrible combination with the Sky Rocket. Sometimes I get lucky and it doesn't go off within my radius, other times it does. Not sure if you thought about it anytime before or after this video but if was to do this, I would've gone with Axton hands down. Edit: Oh. You don't want to use Axton. Wish you explained why (unless I missed that or something).

The baby turrets are bugged when it comes to grenade and splash damage , they're just randomly immune and they shouldn't be when compared to other turret mobs

12:30 there is a limit. after it dies 8 times it becomes immortal.

If Jesse Eisenberg chose to play video game for a living

Good job stay on the grind I got my og ticket I can see you hitting 100k one day

Sick videos, i imagine these videos take alot of effort and time to produce. I hope this channel blows up!

great video man :) really liked the restrictive rules in comparison to others

Technically kreig’s light the fuse also scales with you

The game was made for 30 fps consoles so it has issues when above that so some issues can be fixed by lowering yourself to 30 fps The Overlook beacon can be broken 9ish times then it is unbreakable

The reason why jake killed Rowland in one shot he was using a Jacobs

Istg i have never once hit anything bit myself with the skyrocket 😂

As soon as I seen the title I knew he wasn't gonna be able to kill the baby turrets

I'm surprised you didnt play salvador just for the skill that lets him throw 2 grenades while gunzerking

The beacon can be repaired a maximum of 8 times in overlook... afterwards it becomes invulnerable

good video. keep it up.Deathtrap only challenge next.

I don't even need to watch the video because you absolutely can

I think of all the "Non Glitch" related issues I have with Borderlands 2, its the starting items I hate the most. I hate the contraband Sky Rocket (and the golden guns to a significantly much lesser extent, it would be better if each character got a different golden gun), and its a prime example of why scaling up your gear with your level should NEVER be a feature in any borderlands game. Its literally TOO GOOD, theres not a single fight for the first 15 levels that the Sky Rocket cant just instantly nuke, and it kinda makes every playthrough samey and boring, yeah I KNOW you can sell it, but the conceit is already there and it shouldn't be on the player to impose self restrictions to properly balance the video game.

You know, looking back on this video, you probably should have used a shield that blocked explosions or fire damage specifically.

Those turrets are glitches so don’t worry you didn’t lose

Wow , the quality of this video is absolutely outstanding I rubbed my eyes after to see if 500 subs was correct I thought it couldn’t be. Glad KZfaq recommended me this

Ppl who call the skyrocket bad clearly use it indoors

I have over 8k hours on this Game... and I didnt know the Bot who got Roland will move when you dont save him intime... holy hell

It's weird that you had trouble with bloodwing phases past the first, because I often use the skyrocket on those phases as she transitions and they usually two-shot the phase. It doesn't work on the first one obviously, but once I get through that the fight is basically over.

It never feels like the anti bounce rule serves any purpose other than to accidentally be broken and reset your progress. Maybe you should change it to you cant do more than 20% of an enemy's health in bounce damage.

Love the vid but would probably be more of a challenge if starting at op10

Ive thought about doing this before, but never did. I reckon most of the start of the game is easy to blow through with it.
