The Robocop reference machine pistol called Violator returning would be great as well. I would like all manufacturers to at least all make shields, grenades and melee weapons and to expand on the arsenal. Machine pistols and Sniper rifles from Torgue doing explosive bullets, while other things to gyrojet would be good. maybe something else as well.
You know, I usually hate when weapons brand swap (fuckin Dahl hellfire my ass) But I do feel that the cobra and Omni canon will be a warm welcome to become listed under the Torgue brand. Also they should go back to primarily explosive technology, the fact you can get a Harold in every element just didn’t feel right to me. Maybe have dual element like explosive/fire (new nukem/worldburn).
@@KeizerSosebeeHaving Tourge weapons no longer be element locked was one of the *best* things about 3 letting them be "always splash damage" and allowing the "yellow" element be unique and obtainable on non Tourge weapons the second best. Why the fuck would you want to regressed back to a problem 2 had?
@@KeizerSosebee Explosions=Splash Damage. Explosions≠Radiation. Tourge is still the main source of splash damage. Like it's cool that there is 6 different types of damage per weapon category instead of sniper, SMG not being allowed a yellow element (cobra and double anarchy BL1 ftw) and rockets to have a non elemental. damage variant.
Personally the Flakker on any of the games it appeared in was a favorite of mine. Something about firing it and seeing the screen wipe everything out in a wall of explosions felt satisfying.
It was a MONSTER in TPS if you played Athena and built into the Aspis. You could barrel stuff and charge your shield with your own Flakker while doing massive damage, Mass healing all your teammates, wipe all the adds when you threw your shield, simultaneously REVIVE your whole team, and then just do it again six seconds later. It was NUTS.
The peak opener is my favourite. It is the most "balanced" in many ways as its so powerful you barely need to slag normal enemies on OP levels for it to be great. Its also very satisfying!
@@invincible5065 Sure, on normal and tvhm it is way too powerful. But I mean on OP levels it reaches a perfect balance which few guns have. OP is so unbalanced that most guys are unusable, but the peak feels just right
That's an interesting point. That shows the difficulty of balancing. If you balance things to work well on easy (normal) or Normal (TVHM) difficulty then it's not gonna feel good once you get to the hard (UVHM) or expert (OP levels) difficulties. On the other hand if you focus on making things work well on harder difficulties then everything before end game is going to feel too easy and meaningless. So it's logical to say or think "just make a good scaling system where guns get more powerful as you go and feel good along the whole path." Yes, that is exactly what all of us want. I'm not going to pretend that's easy or like I understand anything about programming or coding or whatever. If it's too time intensive to get absolutely perfect the hard choice is which way do you lean? Would a game company rather have the first 50% of the game feel great and the last 50% feel like a chore, or vice versa? Vast majority of players won't ever make it to the end game, so you have to lean to making the early game the best. For example I have a friend that's played bl2 on and off since I first met him and he's never even completed UVHM. They did pretty good in bl3 though so hopefully balancing going forward isn't such an issue. I apologize for the long message.
@@JaredTG. Exactly, I agree with you. It's hard to balance, I have no doubt about it. But they seemed to have it perfect with level 72 with OP 8 and then they went back and messed with it again. But since the peak is hidden behind a tough raid boss, it seems a good reward for that challenge. Also, they never brought back the slag mechanic so it was never that great, so I prefer guns that work without it
I will admit the main reason I originally used the Plaguebearer on my main FL4K was because of how freakin pretty it looks when you shoot it in Fade Away. That said, the fact it vaporizes every red dot on the screen is definitely a bonus.
His full name isn't "Mr. Torgue Flexington". We learn in BL2 his full god given name is "Mr. Torgue HIGH FIVE Flexington." He deserves to be addressed as such if going for full name.
My very first playthrough on BL3, I got a random Laser Sploder to drop early on and it carried me through a good part of the game. So I have a soft spot for it.
I think the sword Splosion in wonderlands deserved a mention. If you have spore Worden as your main, or secondary class, then you can have 12 shots in the mag. This increases the damage the gun does by 360%.
Ive had an affinity to the Nukem ever since BL2 where i would use it on Krieg. I farmed the hell out of it in BL3 and still use it on my Mayhem 11 Moze. With the right parts and the 150% / 90% hp anointment, it truly lives up to its name. An underrated monster at mobbing in my opinion.
@@Ki11ersix i understand that. Just the way you said it in the video made me assume you meant it as the ogre in general, not the torgue brand specifically.
I'm fairly certain the Roizen's Thorns is a world drop as well as I've gotten multiple versions at multiple levels without farming. Gotta say, it was my go-to hand cannon in base BL3 on the two different playthroughs I did on Fl4k and Zane respectively.
Redline is my raid boss killer. Moze with a Revolter and "Some for the Road" skill can stack an insane amount of sticky's in 5 seconds. Switch to Guardian Angel or Unforgiven, and it will consistently one mag Seer. Raid bosses are so trivial with this setup.
Redline is best on Moze. You can put hundreds of rounds on a boss compare that with the unforgiving with 150% while iron cub is active. I'm actually currently reinstalling this game after nearly a year.
i know this video is old but on console bl 1 2 and tps you can close the game so you can farm rewards faster instead of cloud save and you can also get multiple of them without collecting the the reward too but fo that you need a 2nd controller
Naturally the DPUH or Unkempt Harold is #1. Couldn't have been any other Torgue gun. Honestly I prefer the BL3 Unkempt Harold as in many ways it is better than the BL2 DPUH. The BL2 version is so cracked OP that on many playthroughs I refused to use it. While a Unkempt Harold of every variety in the hands of Torgue Cross Promotion Moze is just so much fun with a sweeper com.
I still think that BL4 should have a Donkinator 5000 weapon. It's red text is every 5th critical hit has an elemental effect AND a sound bit of "use the fish for cover!" plays in your character's voice.
Peak opener is amazing, just wanted to state the obvious The Harold might be the most iconic BL2 weapon, maybe beaten by the infinity (as it was popular with beginners specially) or the Grog or Norfleet? I would like to see a list of the most iconic weapons from each game
Huh. The plaguebearer is basically Maya's scorn in rocket launcher form. Except it actually kills shit. Not that scorn was meant for killing anything lol.
I personally like the swordsplosion in wonderlands better, 3x projectiles and 3 shot combinde with bonus damage shot via melee and you melt most bosses, just a piss to farm it
My brother loves the creamer for his eraser zane. You've never seen death like eraser zane with a creamer death. He'd rock the mod that hits crits every hit i guess, with a barrier so he doesn't die, a mantis cannon for killskills and a tobogan to slide and he'd run away to get a straight line with a bunch of red dots then boom no more red dots. I call it boring and doesn't work with guardian takedown. He calls it boring and doesn't work with guardian takedown but kills everything else.
Playing through wonderlands right now and i can't praise the swordsplosion in this game enough, jam it in sticky mode and go ham on any boss even 10 levels above you!
Weird as fuck that this video is how I learned that the Unkempt Harold is apparently full auto on BL2. Happy to see the Redline up the list, I still remember watching you absolutely tear bosses apart with it in your Shotgun Moze (please tell me I'm not making this up, my memory is bad)
Now, in borderlands classic I had some pretty insane rolls on some stuff that I was very fond of. For me, one of my favorite torgue weapons ever was the bastard legendary machine gun, and in particular, my roll. I had one with mat_2 and the frantic accessory which, for those familiar with the borderlands classic weapon prefix system, are basically the only combination of parts that could actually give it a listed prefix of "frantic." The frantic fire rate bonus isn't confered in full unless the prefix is actually listed on the weapon card. Mine had the best mag, it had the AR body, and memory serves i wanna say stock 4, although part of me wants to say stock 5. I'd use it on my Spectre build Lilith as essentially a big SMG paired with the main event, my god roll non elemental Dahl penetrator which I could use due to the max ammo regeneration roll on my spectre class mod. The real kicker that allowed me to use the torgue bastard on my lilith despite the accuracy penalty intrinsic to it was the kill skill that gave me increased accuracy and damage, which was boosted by my class mod. So i could get the first kill and then my frantic bastard was basically just as accurate if not more accurate than a maxed heavy gunner Roland. That kill skill was a huge part of my build cause it allowed me to use lots of weapons like the bastard where they're given increased damage in exchange for worse accuracy. For example, I could use a double gasher as basically a shotgun. Ik most won't remember those weapons like I do, but for me they're an essential part of my borderlands 1 experience
I think the BL3 version of the Harold is unequivocally better. I think the Cobra from BL1 should have definitely made the top 10 too. The one that I did not hear mentioned that I love is the Tiggs Boom.
The loot dropping like crazy can be good if you want to be able to try different builds. As you can at least ensure you'll get the gear you need, just may not be the perfect rolls. And the matchmaking I think they should take notes from D2R or BL1 remastered those two games were pretty solid for matchmaking options.
Dang, the #2 is basically the Scourge's big brother, better at everything. On a side note though, the Mongol is a fantastic Vladof launcher. I would put the BL3 version down as number 10th best launcher across the games.
Always loved the Plaguebearer on my FL4K fadeaway splash damage build. With two fang and the infernal wish it deletes anything, whether that be mobs or bosses. Makes me want to reinstall BL3 honestly.
What killed bl3 for me was the nerfs, no dedicated spawns off rip, and mayhem level which shouldn’t have been a requirement to challenge me in the game. Might give the game another chance to see how it’s aged. Still one of the roughest launches I’ve seen in gaming history
I used my level 9 Double Anarchy as Lilith literally through THE WHOLE CAMPAIGN AND KNOXX’S DLC. The gun is insane. I did find upgrade later on but even against level 40 enemies, a level 9 Double Anarchy obliterates enemies.
My favorite is the lob. I remember getting it in my first 3 playthrough from the eden 6 destroyer boss and I was just BLOWN away by the fact I was shooting a FUCKING SUN at one ammo per shot. It's probably my favorite gun in the game.
This comment is super unrelated to the video but id really like to get you two cents K6. Idk if this has been brought up in one of your what we want to see in BL4 posts but i was thinking if Gearbox sticks with the whole some manufacturers dont have specific gun types thing ie. No Hyperion pistols, Jakobs Subs, stuff like that. Would you like to see those missing weapon types become Legendaries or Pearls? So in BL4 there are still no normal Hyperion Pistols but the Lady Fist is now a Hyperion legendary Pistol if that makes sense?
For me BL3 Flakker, BL3 Hive, B1 cobra, Seeker, kerblaster, DPUH, rynahh, world burn, creamer bl3, carnage ,plauge bearer, double anarchy, swords splosion, loveable rouge, lump, carnuncle dont care about the rest
Dude! How did you forget the torgue lazer assault rifle?? I love that bad boy! I dont know where you can obtain it but i got it from the eridian gun launcher.
the funniest part is that its not dedicated to the torgue manufacturer. its a smg part that can only appear on non unique smgs and its best variant on torgue is a steel anarchy. you literally couldve put the BL1 Cobra in its place. i mean in the other games its jakobs, but the ogre is an atlas legendary yet it was included from BL2.
alright so about flakker a -33% nerf for a gun dealing 100 damage would leave it at 66.6 damage a +50% buff would bring it back to exactly the same 100 damage since 50% of 66.6 is 33.3 so if my understanding is correct the 50% buff after the nerf just made it how it used to be from the beginning
I think people such as myself would be confused on that DA pick. It seems to be the only gun with multiple manufacturers. Was confused when it was 10. I BARELY play BL1. Unless, possibly, I am mistaken and there are multiple-multiple manufacturer weapons in BL1...
@7:48 BL3 and BL1 versions of the Ogre however are not Torgue, but Vladof and Atlas respectively. No idea why they keep changing its manufacturer. I'd actually say the BL1 version is the overall best of the bunch, but of course you can't put an Atlas gun on Torgue list :D On the topic of Ogre tho, I would replace it with the Peak Opener on the list. It's ridiculously strong weapon (not just in the digi peak where it's aimed at) and while you do need to kill Haderax to get it, I'd still say it is easier than getting an Ogre. @11:54 The Ahab doesn't imo belong even in the honorable mentions. On its own it's absolute garbage weapon and the World Burn supersedes it in the only role it ever was used as. Doesn't deserve a slot in best weapons list imo, when you need to abuse a glitch and then not even have ammo in the gun to get any use of the it. And you can get very similar results with any other Torgue launcher on that glitch. @12:02 Interesting that you mentioned Moonscaper, since only thing I ever remember people using it for was flinging yourself around the map. As a conventional gun it was quite bad imo. @12:03 I would actually put The Lob on the list instead of the Roisen's Thorns and move it to honorable mentions. While it was arguably the worst weapon in the game on launch, the buff really lifted it to the top echelons and the small nerf afterwards didn't really hurt it. Also as it can spawn in all elements it makes it more versatile. Devil's Foursum and R.Y.N.A.H. are also IMO worth noting. While both have their issues, they can be worked around and do really nasty damage.
Great points. I need to hire you to proofread me. Weird that you didn't catch the worst part... I used a Hellfire instead of a Double Anarchy in the opening lol
@@Ki11ersix Yeah I thought that your "Anarchy" looked a bit weird, but wasn't entirely sure, as I don't know the BL1 weapon skins that well. Looking into it now, Anarchies can't actually even spawn as elemental, so should've known from that alone :D
lol shows how much I was paying attention while getting that footage lol. I reinstalled BL1. Loaded in. Looked at slot one. Saw the DA and started killing. My dumbass thought the elemental damage was from Lilith’s abilities lol
I really just don’t get what they were thinking in year 1 of bl3, just completely gutting so many weapons/skills/playstyles. Always gonna be thankful that they basically just said “screw it” like a year in and just buffed everything by huge amounts. There’s always gonna be some things that need a nerf sure, but the way they went about things just wasn’t right.
Yeah, the first 6 months give or take were rough. Game was still fun, but very rough around the edges. Glad we kept fighting to get Gearbox to make positive changes. Still could have been even better, but I'm grateful for what we got in the end.
Unkempt Harold hands down. Not only best torgue gun, one of the best gun in borderlands 2 pre sequel and maybe 3(i didn't have it). İ think Kerblaster should be in this list also.
The peak opener shouldn't be a honourable mention💀💀 It is probably one of few borderlands 2 guns that can work in the op levels without a solid build. Otherwise, good list.
After hearing about the nerfs and buffs the bl3 flakker went through i have 1 question. Why nerf something so hard or even at all if your players are having fun with it??
To this day I still believe the Flakker nerf was the most spiteful nerf gearbox has done. They *really* wanted players to stop having fun with that weapon 😂
I honestly think the redline shouldn't be that high up because to make it that good you need either and unforgiven or guardian angel. Definitely think Peak Opener should've gotten that spot, that gun is a monster.
I really hope in bl4 Torgue snipers return and the Unkempt Harold returns as a Pearl which it's earned the right to be.
The Robocop reference machine pistol called Violator returning would be great as well. I would like all manufacturers to at least all make shields, grenades and melee weapons and to expand on the arsenal. Machine pistols and Sniper rifles from Torgue doing explosive bullets, while other things to gyrojet would be good. maybe something else as well.
You know, I usually hate when weapons brand swap (fuckin Dahl hellfire my ass)
But I do feel that the cobra and Omni canon will be a warm welcome to become listed under the Torgue brand. Also they should go back to primarily explosive technology, the fact you can get a Harold in every element just didn’t feel right to me. Maybe have dual element like explosive/fire (new nukem/worldburn).

I used my level 9 Double Anarchy as Lilith literally through THE WHOLE CAMPAIGN AND KNOXX’S DLC. The gun is insane. I did find upgrade later on but even against level 40 enemies, a level 9 Double Anarchy obliterates enemies.
I literally call the Rosen's Thorn the baby Unkempt Harold, just like like the Magnificent is the baby Light show.
My favorite is the lob. I remember getting it in my first 3 playthrough from the eden 6 destroyer boss and I was just
BLOWN away by the fact I was shooting a FUCKING SUN at one ammo per shot. It's probably my favorite gun in the game.
This comment is super unrelated to the video but id really like to get you two cents K6. Idk if this has been brought up in one of your what we want to see in BL4 posts but i was thinking if Gearbox sticks with the whole some manufacturers dont have specific gun types thing ie. No Hyperion pistols, Jakobs Subs, stuff like that. Would you like to see those missing weapon types become Legendaries or Pearls? So in BL4 there are still no normal Hyperion Pistols but the Lady Fist is now a Hyperion legendary Pistol if that makes sense?
that would be awesome.
The first time i played kriegs dlc in bl3 i got the prompt critical multiple times as world drops in different characters
I use the plaguebearer on exclusively moze with phalanx and tlr. Ice been able to stack like 8 or 9 million shield before.
Lovable rogue, contained blast, alchemist and tigg's boom for me maybe
For me BL3 Flakker, BL3 Hive, B1 cobra, Seeker, kerblaster, DPUH, rynahh, world burn, creamer bl3, carnage ,plauge bearer, double anarchy, swords splosion, loveable rouge, lump, carnuncle dont care about the rest
Dude! How did you forget the torgue lazer assault rifle?? I love that bad boy! I dont know where you can obtain it but i got it from the eridian gun launcher.
I think we all love grandma flexington not just mr torgue
You should do a best version video for the guns across all 3 games showing which version is the best one
You blow outta porportion the evil lilith fight. I'll take that fight over driving across the map to savage lee ANY day
That’s fair
Babe wake up K6 posted literally anything and I love his content so much that I’ll drop anything to watch him
Appreciate the hell out of you. Thanks man!
Swordsplosion on
Tiny Tina's Wonderlands was the best version of it.
I remeber my first Ogre drop in BL2. Was a hell ride to farm on Op 10. : (
"the double anarchy" *shows footage of maliwan hellfire*
the funniest part is that its not dedicated to the torgue manufacturer. its a smg part that can only appear on non unique smgs and its best variant on torgue is a steel anarchy. you literally couldve put the BL1 Cobra in its place. i mean in the other games its jakobs, but the ogre is an atlas legendary yet it was included from BL2.
Honestly I could have just excluded BL1 entirely since every game after that has done pretty much everything better with manufacturers
Wonder if your gonna do a mr tongue mod playthrough on bl2 since he's coming out soon
Plaugeberear deserved that spot for sure.
I liked the Laser-sploder from BL3 for my Moze.
wasnt aware of redlines existense, ty
I wish the Juliet’s dazzle was honorable mention
no ravager? id think it would be at least in the honorable mentions
A good old BL2 Torgue blue rarity assault rifle is fun to shoot
alright so about flakker
a -33% nerf for a gun dealing 100 damage would leave it at 66.6 damage
a +50% buff would bring it back to exactly the same 100 damage since 50% of 66.6 is 33.3
so if my understanding is correct the 50% buff after the nerf just made it how it used to be from the beginning
the ogre and double penetrating devestator on a Grenadier axton was fun
I have a question about borderlands 1. If you are at max level then why you still gaining/stacking xp?
On BL1? No clue. Didn’t know you did
I think people such as myself would be confused on that DA pick. It seems to be the only gun with multiple manufacturers. Was confused when it was 10. I BARELY play BL1.
Unless, possibly, I am mistaken and there are multiple-multiple manufacturer weapons in BL1...
Yeah, in BL1 several guns have multiple manufacturer options. It's weird.
I got a soft spot for the Bastard in BL1, especially if its got a good fire rate
This clip had too many sylables. APOLOGISE!!!!!!
I love the BL3 Flakker. Is it the best gun? No. But it is the most fun.
@7:48 BL3 and BL1 versions of the Ogre however are not Torgue, but Vladof and Atlas respectively. No idea why they keep changing its manufacturer. I'd actually say the BL1 version is the overall best of the bunch, but of course you can't put an Atlas gun on Torgue list :D On the topic of Ogre tho, I would replace it with the Peak Opener on the list. It's ridiculously strong weapon (not just in the digi peak where it's aimed at) and while you do need to kill Haderax to get it, I'd still say it is easier than getting an Ogre.
@11:54 The Ahab doesn't imo belong even in the honorable mentions. On its own it's absolute garbage weapon and the World Burn supersedes it in the only role it ever was used as. Doesn't deserve a slot in best weapons list imo, when you need to abuse a glitch and then not even have ammo in the gun to get any use of the it. And you can get very similar results with any other Torgue launcher on that glitch.
@12:02 Interesting that you mentioned Moonscaper, since only thing I ever remember people using it for was flinging yourself around the map. As a conventional gun it was quite bad imo.
@12:03 I would actually put The Lob on the list instead of the Roisen's Thorns and move it to honorable mentions. While it was arguably the worst weapon in the game on launch, the buff really lifted it to the top echelons and the small nerf afterwards didn't really hurt it. Also as it can spawn in all elements it makes it more versatile.
Devil's Foursum and R.Y.N.A.H. are also IMO worth noting. While both have their issues, they can be worked around and do really nasty damage.
Great points. I need to hire you to proofread me.
Weird that you didn't catch the worst part... I used a Hellfire instead of a Double Anarchy in the opening lol
@@Ki11ersix Yeah I thought that your "Anarchy" looked a bit weird, but wasn't entirely sure, as I don't know the BL1 weapon skins that well. Looking into it now, Anarchies can't actually even spawn as elemental, so should've known from that alone :D
lol shows how much I was paying attention while getting that footage lol. I reinstalled BL1. Loaded in. Looked at slot one. Saw the DA and started killing. My dumbass thought the elemental damage was from Lilith’s abilities lol
I really just don’t get what they were thinking in year 1 of bl3, just completely gutting so many weapons/skills/playstyles. Always gonna be thankful that they basically just said “screw it” like a year in and just buffed everything by huge amounts. There’s always gonna be some things that need a nerf sure, but the way they went about things just wasn’t right.
Yeah, the first 6 months give or take were rough. Game was still fun, but very rough around the edges. Glad we kept fighting to get Gearbox to make positive changes. Still could have been even better, but I'm grateful for what we got in the end.
@@Ki11ersixcouldn’t have said it better myself 👍
No mention of the Backburner? I always hear you talk about it way more than plaguebearer (since they’re similar)
It's Vladof. I prefer it over the Plaguebearer fwiw
I have the tourge gun from the Irish doc in bl3 first try from evil lillith
Currently doing a Moze/Torgue allegiance run. I named her "MORGUE." Seems fitting.
haha, if you have Torgue Cross Promo you're gonna be headed there
@@Ki11ersix I had to stop using the Flakker cos...yeah...
Unkempt Harold hands down. Not only best torgue gun, one of the best gun in borderlands 2 pre sequel and maybe 3(i didn't have it). İ think Kerblaster should be in this list also.
Whichever one can blow up the ocean is the one I like best
The peak opener shouldn't be a honourable mention💀💀
It is probably one of few borderlands 2 guns that can work in the op levels without a solid build. Otherwise, good list.
There’s always a degree of personal bias with these lists
Of course, the second best character in borderlands has some of the most fun weapons in the game
Again, obviously the best TORGUE weapon is plasma coil.
Torgue weapons are my favorite.
Gonna be a fun one
I wonder what Mr.Torgues Grandma would pick ??
a story.
We all knew which one would be number 1.
After hearing about the nerfs and buffs the bl3 flakker went through i have 1 question.
Why nerf something so hard or even at all if your players are having fun with it??
On this one, no clue. Same with when they nerfed Clawbringer in Wonderlands early on. Sometimes nerfs make sense (Evil Smasher glitch for example).
I heard cause that's all players was using and wiping everything so quick so they wanted other weapons to get some shine
Yeah, it’s kinda true. Literally everyone was JUST using Flakker. It was a bit bonkers. Realistically they should have adjusted other stuff up though
K6 I know how much you love Torgue Assault Rifles in B3 but honestly didn't expect you to make your 1-10 all Torgue Assault Rifles from BL3
lol
That too Juliet's Dazzle at number 1. Weird but okay.
SHHH!! It's a surprise!
To this day I still believe the Flakker nerf was the most spiteful nerf gearbox has done. They *really* wanted players to stop having fun with that weapon 😂
Yep.
I honestly think the redline shouldn't be that high up because to make it that good you need either and unforgiven or guardian angel. Definitely think Peak Opener should've gotten that spot, that gun is a monster.
