ive been subbed to yote for about 4 months now, i literally JUST read these comments to find out he died.. i have never felt so sad to hear that about someone ive never met before. I will never unsub from yote's channel because he has the most useful and best gaming info on a lot of the games i play as well. Rest well Yote, we all will see you again one day.
The media WILL twist the reason behind why if they added a yote Easter egg into some bullshit about condoning driving under the influence and letting a friend of his drive HIS car while under the influence.
"Movement speed isnr fantastic" Every I know who has the DLC is using a rough rider with the breakneck banshee class mod. Everyone's running at crazy speeds
Vasich lolcode especially if you have an infinity pistol. that's my current fave combo to go with when I have a bee. now I just need a console to go farming for weapons and stuff again XD
Honestly the assassins skill will increase dps more than the commandos. Gun Damage AND Fire Rate increases dps exponentially (damage * fire rate = DPS) where as having only one of those stats perked increase dps linearly. The thing is reload speed and ammo capacity makes gun damage more valuable in longer fights (sustained dps would be higher).
Got my little brother hooked onto BL2 because it was on sale on steam. Now he's watching Yote's videos. He asked me why he hasn't made anymore and it made me tear up. All that I know in BL2 is because of this great guy. Hes always gonna be missed.
What I am saying building your Krieg towards melee and if you use the Love Thumber shield when it's depleted you gain roid damage. A shit ton plus the explosive plus his skill tree. Rough rider would be a terrible shield for him.
but that adds unecessary overkill damage, he already has high melee damage making roid shields unecessary, a roid shield is more likely to kill him because you do want StV for that 250% bonus, it just adds extra overkill damage he's better off with a Flame of the Firehawk or Rough Rider
The fast that he’s gone makes me not want to watch his videos it’s sad as heck I used to get up early morning to watch him play zombies man I miss his voice and content he was the best
Prototype4225 isn't trolling. I understand what he means. YoteSlaya is dead yes. We were all sad, I could think for a few days cos I missed him. But saying "RIP" on every video isn't going to bring him back. He's gone, though it is terrible, it is true. But please stop getting angry with prototype. It's the people that are telling him to die, that are truly disrespectful. Ok, thank you, once again I'm not trolling, I miss yote too.
Agreed, you would need to combine that shield with a class mod or relic which gives you health regen. I'm guessing that with this shield you probably want a class mod to increase said skill (I just picked up a +6 to fleet for my siren), so you will want to use Blood of Terra or Blood of Seraphs to get health regen.
Dreez76 One of the reasons I don't take Silence the Voices. Besides the fact that hitting yourself takes so damn long, and has that dazing effect. Better off forgoing the damage bonus and getting more swings in.
Not taking StV because of the selfhitting is stupid imo, you're turning down an extra 500% melee damage with the right mod. Just put 5/5 points into Thrill of the Kill, equip Rapier+RR and enjoy the carnage you leave behind.
Arthur Groen I'll look into that, though law still comes with 100% damage bonus and unlike the rapier doesn't have an annoying drawback so that's hard to compete with.
Lord Hawkeye You can get a rubi with 50% melee damage bonus tough. The huge plus for rubi is that any damage done while holding it will heal you, even grenades, which can be pretty handy if you're low on health.
Arthur Groen Thing is, what if the game decides "Oops, no melee bonus for you! Lol!"? Do you have to replay the whole game just to get to that quest and roll the dice again?
The rough rider has one more effect for the Gunzerker, it does give him +35% fire rate, but the inconceivable skill has a 50% to not consume bullets, depending on health and shields. With no shields at all times, you have a HUGE increase in the amount of bullets you can fire.
This was on the wiki post thought it would be helpful to post here. "Effects requiring shields to be full can be still be used with some characters by using a class mod that boosts shield capacity by specific amount (for example, Zer0's Professional class mod), making this shield somewhat more useful."
Quick thought. This shield tied to a Gunzerker with 11/5 points in the Juggernaut skill. Every time Salvador kills an enemy (which happens a lot), he instantly gets 64% damage resistance, not counting whatever resistance gunzerking gives you. Something else you could do (which I've done before): 11/5 in the skill that reduces elemental DoT for a total of 64% dmg resist along with 88% less elemental effect time on you.
R33Racer it's not a sign of respect. you're pretty much saying that if i respect someone i'm going to say i RIP so and so for whom i have deep respect for. RIP is a form of telling the dead to rest in peace you fucktard.
it figures that your dumbass would bother to make a horrible comeback. honestly i'm going to assume you're in your 20's thinking you're the shit even though you're not and just making an ass of yourself on the internet.
Yote, I saw someone else do this with the Siren. Equip a Breakneck Banshee class, which increases the Fleet up to 6 skill points. This means you would than have a movement speed of 110% A.K.A. you than become fastest thing in the game. This is killer for when you just want to get to something really fast (such as a farm-able boss) and rush past everything else. You can also run faster than some of the enemies attacks.
the problem with that is that hide of terramorphous is better because of the roid damage even though you you start with no shield you do not get the roid damage witch can boost your by damage more than a couple hundred thousand
The name and text refers to teddy Roosevelt and what he said about the attempt on his life, plus the name refers to a part of the army he was commanding in during the Spanish-American war, called the rough riders
I love how positive these comments are weather its rip yoda or talking about builds it makes me so happy that even though yotas gone the comments are still so positive
On the Commando, you could use Crisis Management, the first survival perk on the right (Not sure of the name) and the Pointman class mod to constantly regain health instead of shields, and still do extra damage.
The proc percentage for "Inconcievable" is based on shield AND health percentage. So, in general, you would always be at least halfway to the max percentage of proc chance; 25+% chance for free ammo when fully upgraded. So yeah, totally OP.
With siren's harmony skill tree, there are perks that give health regen when enemies take damage, and then another perk that causes health damage to enemies instead of you. it's a fantastic combination
Not to mention grog nozzle + harold on gunzerker, who naturally has a lot of health already. But now that i think about it this video was uploaded before the tiny Tina dlc came out so
the red text is that Theodore Roosevelt was trying to run for presesdent a third time and during a speech he was shot he rose up to the man who shot him and said it takes more that a bullet to kill a bull moose and contenud his speech.
I use the Hide of Terramorpheus (probably spelled that wrong) because it has the fire novas for the Hellborn tree, as well as roid damage. A shield literally designed for melee and fire.
the red text is a reference to teddy Roosevelt... he was the presidential candidate for the BULLMOOSE party at one point. He also at one point lead a group of fighters called the rough riders.
"it takes more than that to kill a bull moose" is what Teddy Roosevelt said after he survived a musket shot from an assassin (the musket ball hit a folded speech in the pocket in his jacket) He said that phrase with the ball still lodged in his ribs.
The red text is a reference to one of the president's speeches. I believe it was Roosevelt, but he said that one day during a speech after he survived an attempted assassination. He basically said one bullet won't take me down so why would you even try. Also, the name "rough rider" was from the name of his cavalry unite while he was in the military.
The Rough rider and the red text "It takes more than thato kill a bull moose" are both references to President Theodore "Teddy" Rosevelt. His political parties symbol was a bull moose and he was a member of the rough rides, the calvary on horse back. All I can really tell from it.
You don't have to be in gunzerk for it to cool down. It can be used outside of it as well, and it's every so often. You don't get the bonus for every single shot.
One of Kriegs skills in the Mania tree makes him have more melee damage when your shield or clip is empty so with 5 skill points in it i think it gives 50% more melee damage and with the silence the voices perk and a good class mod he can do large amounts of damage with just his buzz axe and when he rampages he will destroy anything that moves
That's if you manage to get max stacks, and on UVM it's not an easy task. You still get extremely high melee damage, but the added bonus with the Hellfire tree is that is has a skill that every time you deal elemental damage a presentage of the damage comes back as health. This + Flame of the fire hawk + holding a ruby, and I manage to run places like Finks slaughter house without taking any damage to my health on UVM, but still dealing massive amount of melee damage.
A quote from Borderlands wiki that explains the background info about this shield, "The shield's name and red text quote refers to President Theodore Roosevelt, founder of the military group the "Rough Riders", and the "Bull Moose" political party. After being shot, he spoke publicly saying, "Ladies and gentlemen, I don't know whether you fully understand that I have just been shot; but it takes more than that to kill a Bull Moose."
This shield is INCREDIBLE for a gunzerker when you combine the rampage tree with tanking tree. it gives a great damage output AND an exquisite health regen and highly reduced damage.
it also helps him when playing coop and using redeem the soul (the ability that instantly revives an ally and puts you in FFYL) because of the 20% damage reduction it doesn't actually down you. it just takes your health down to 20% which when combined with Release the Beast you can instantly mutate. easily my favorite shield for krieg since you don't have to worry about your health very much the no shield isnt a problem since you want low health. also it always gives you stacks of salt the wound
the flavored text in the shield refers to teddy roosevelt, he had an assassination attempt on him while running for his 3rd trm in office. the party he was in was not republican but was called the "bullmoose" party. what saved his life was his extremly large speech folded up in his left breast pocket. the man shot him and even though he was shot he gave his speech anyways witout going to a hospital and saying to the audience "It takes more than that to kill a bull-moose!"
the ultimate siren combo works with this shield: Rough Rider (has 0 capacity, no recharge) Banshee class mod with Fleet Skill Bonus (Fleet increases run speed by 10% per skill point when shield capacity is 0) Currently run at +90% more run speed, have 350k hp at level 61, and a massive damage reduction.
Unless you're like me and have both. If you already played borderlands 2 a couple times high chances of you finishing the mania tree in the first day or two. I finished the mania first because of the badass psycho, and then moved to hellfire. There you get fire axe as well so your melee now do fire damage. On ultimate this shield won't help, but with flame of the firehawk and both trees, add the legendary mod if you can, you'll become invincible. Try it and you'll see how OP and awesome Krieg is
with axton, at lvl 61, does huge amounts of damage, just barely surpassing the bee by 1-2k, but if u add grit, you could be potentially repleneshing ur healh almost every time you almost die, and put on like a class mod to increase it by 5 or 6, idk if there is a +6 class mod for grit, but here is some tips for axton at lvl 61, try it out guys who have an axton at lvl 61, its fun!
It's a beast with every character. Constant shield empty skills; big boost in health and all around damage reduction. You can do some crazy broken thing with this shield.
the skills from the harmony skill tree and the class mods and relics depend on whether you want more max health or better regeneration. it isnt the best thing you can do but 50% more movement speed and health only gameplay definetly is a fresh experience compared tho the "must not take damage" bee shield strategie.
Well the stats aren't calculated like that, but still a heap of damage resistance, melee damage, and with Release the Beast's ability to fully heal you when transforming and it's instant CD, it's a pretty brutal combo.
Oh nvm and also with that shield as a siren you'll be able to tank any bullet damage if you have 5 points in kenetic reflection and had another 3-4 points with a class mod as long as you get kills.
I play as Krieg and his fire rate and reload speed increase based on perks. There are other bonuses as well, which make Krieg more dangerous without shields, but it's pretty cool.
It's impossibly good on the Siren because when taking health damage you CAN have a 100% chance to do the same damage back. Of course you'll need a class mod to get it to 100% but still it's good with moxxi weapons because they heal you.
You forgot to mention that, with the Rough Rider equipped, Redeem Soul WILL NOT put you in Fight for Your Life. Also, you can active Release the Beast after reviving someone.
I'm Axton and got the shield lvl 61 ;) I also got The Bee lvl 61, Hawk Sniper 61. Being Axton, playing solo all the way through in UVHM and also DLC that's not just talk talk but you get nice reward and you feel awesome being baddass. Died alot can tell you that.
When going down the path of the tank with Krieg the rough rider is amazing. When he uses redeem the soul he doesn't go down, and if he has release the beast after reviving someone you can immediately enter it. It will also boost his health a lot if he has feed the meat, I have a class mod that makes my feed the meat 11 and with all the boosts to my health I have over 600k health to work with. I myself think it is the best for him, but everyone can have their own opinions about this.
if i recall, the gunzerkers inconceivable skill is based of off low shield and hp. so this shield with inconceivable( which gives the gunzerker +20% to not use ammo while shields are depleted and if you have low health) will techincally give the gunzerker infinite ammo. right?
Lol i have the legendary soldier class mod for Axton that increases up to 5 skills by an extra 5 points, and i already have a 5/5 skill that increases his gun damage by another 35% and increases his mag size so ill be doing 70% damage to an enemy.
Torgue is the best. You get access to all of the Torgue legendaries. All you need is 1 hour of farming for 613 Torgue Tokens and you can get any Torgue legendary guaranteed. Much better than farming enemies and hoping to get it by chance. Also, you get 2 epic Moxxi weapons the Slowhand and the Kitten, as well as an explosive sniper rifle (which is a really rare drop), and Pyro Pete the Invincible.
It's an ok Dlc. It does have it's really cool things, like this shield, it's totally worth the $10, the final boss is pretty hard to kill, and the armory at the end = lots of Legendaries, E-Techs, and pearlescents.
I think you're wrong, it is about teddy Roosevelt but , he actually was shot on the way to giving a speech and in the middle of the speech he showed the gunshot wound to the crowd and said "it takes more than that to kill a bull moose " c;
you can't use Preparation here because the Shield needs to be full, not empty. The game treats the shield as empty rather than full here, otherwise Crisis Management won't be on. The Pointman still works though.
Surprised he only talked about damage improvement. With such a major boost to health, powers that let you regenerate health (preparation regen while full) and (able regen when injured enemy) become much more powerful. Also any power that activates when shields are full or shields are empty.
Is there a class mod that guarantees an increase to the Crisis Management skill? that could probably make it even more overpowered if you built a character around a combination of that and this shield. At higher levels you may as well not have a shield since you lose it so fast to like two or three bullets. The Rough Rider pretty much cuts out the middleman.
"talk to ya later" holy shit my heart breaks a little
Alcamacist same :(
What happened?
@@JustIn-sr1xe He passed away. You can read about it online. Just type in "What happened to Yoteslaya"

"Movement speed isnr fantastic" Every I know who has the DLC is using a rough rider with the breakneck banshee class mod. Everyone's running at crazy speeds
the psycho has an entire skill tree that is just based around never having a shield
I think this video came out before the psycho came out
yeah, and its useless for mechromancer, deathtrap will constantly try to give you a shield
+Dean Toonen deathtrap don't restore shields unless you pick up the skill. I actually don't use it because he kept restoring cannon fodder shields
its nice if you use a bee.

The only Jakob's shield...
This shield is probably the best for Krieg... Pfffff...
Fire hawk is good also
ethan Halstead
Love thumper is best
True
+Mem Sem this was made before krieg im pretty sure
The Hulls
..no..
its been 2years since i found out he died RIP YOTESLAYA
Tanner Thompson wait what hes dead, like dead
Joker9zk yep
Oh... shyte. I was just starting to get into this guy's reviews....
I'm still here somehow
that freakin picture
Axton: Hey, this shield makes me do a lotta damage.
Krieg: Hold my meat bicycle...
This would be devastating on krieg
I would recommend the love thumper since It has an explosive for ever melee attack and Krieg is a melee character.
Doesn't Krieg already have bloodsplosion on his bloodlust tree?
What I am saying building your Krieg towards melee and if you use the Love Thumber shield when it's depleted you gain roid damage. A shit ton plus the explosive plus his skill tree. Rough rider would be a terrible shield for him.
that's what I thought. doing a psycho play through. unleash the beast and this but fuckin lord have mercy
but that adds unecessary overkill damage, he already has high melee damage making roid shields unecessary, a roid shield is more likely to kill him because you do want StV for that 250% bonus, it just adds extra overkill damage he's better off with a Flame of the Firehawk or Rough Rider
The fast that he’s gone makes me not want to watch his videos it’s sad as heck I used to get up early morning to watch him play zombies man I miss his voice and content he was the best
Prototype4225 isn't trolling. I understand what he means. YoteSlaya is dead yes. We were all sad, I could think for a few days cos I missed him. But saying "RIP" on every video isn't going to bring him back. He's gone, though it is terrible, it is true. But please stop getting angry with prototype. It's the people that are telling him to die, that are truly disrespectful. Ok, thank you, once again I'm not trolling, I miss yote too.
People don't say RIP in the hopes he'll come back. It's a form of fucking respect and to show he is still remembered and loved.
This will make the psycho more overpowered than the commando *begins plotting*
...and then shortly after ppl realised its best on Salvador .. and then 8 years later I commented about it. Super relevant.
Rip yoteslaya you will be missed
So... Teddy Roosevelt anyone?... No?... Ok...
@Paul Martin not alot of people like history so no... it is not obvious to about maybe half of these people
RIP Yote,
:(
Agreed, you would need to combine that shield with a class mod or relic which gives you health regen. I'm guessing that with this shield you probably want a class mod to increase said skill (I just picked up a +6 to fleet for my siren), so you will want to use Blood of Terra or Blood of Seraphs to get health regen.
this guy was the best help for borderlands 2 even when wes not here anymore we miss ya Yoteslaya. you are remembered.
The shield is probably beast for Krieg! Considering you get a damage boost when your shield is depleted.
+Angel Napoles If only it was a roid shield...
+BeardedJustice Roidshields are BAD for Krieg, you'll end up killing yourself ALOT because the extra Roid-damage applies when hitting yourself.
Dreez76 One of the reasons I don't take Silence the Voices. Besides the fact that hitting yourself takes so damn long, and has that dazing effect. Better off forgoing the damage bonus and getting more swings in.
Not taking StV because of the selfhitting is stupid imo, you're turning down an extra 500% melee damage with the right mod.
Just put 5/5 points into Thrill of the Kill, equip Rapier+RR and enjoy the carnage you leave behind.
Roid shield + Silence the voices is actually really good, if you got the legendary sickle and the grog nuzzle equiped
I play melee Zero, I kinda don't like being perma-married to the law and order combo but they're just too good to pass up. >
You could go rubi + love thumper, that's some pretty good shit for melee Zer0
Arthur Groen
I'll look into that, though law still comes with 100% damage bonus and unlike the rapier doesn't have an annoying drawback so that's hard to compete with.
Lord Hawkeye You can get a rubi with 50% melee damage bonus tough. The huge plus for rubi is that any damage done while holding it will heal you, even grenades, which can be pretty handy if you're low on health.
Arthur Groen
Thing is, what if the game decides "Oops, no melee bonus for you! Lol!"? Do you have to replay the whole game just to get to that quest and roll the dice again?
I believe you can just quit the game before accepting the reward. That should allow you to try again.
Ah, Teddy Roosevelt was an interesting man wasn't he?
Still watching his videos for help
Let him R.I.P

Zero's Fearless skill raised to 11 combined with a bandit allegiance relic, the Rough Rider and the Slagga makes an extremely overpowered combo.
the ultimate siren combo works with this shield:
Rough Rider (has 0 capacity, no recharge)
Banshee class mod with Fleet Skill Bonus (Fleet increases run speed by 10% per skill point when shield capacity is 0)
Currently run at +90% more run speed, have 350k hp at level 61, and a massive damage reduction.
Unless you're like me and have both. If you already played borderlands 2 a couple times high chances of you finishing the mania tree in the first day or two. I finished the mania first because of the badass psycho, and then moved to hellfire. There you get fire axe as well so your melee now do fire damage. On ultimate this shield won't help, but with flame of the firehawk and both trees, add the legendary mod if you can, you'll become invincible. Try it and you'll see how OP and awesome Krieg is
with axton, at lvl 61, does huge amounts of damage, just barely surpassing the bee by 1-2k, but if u add grit, you could be potentially repleneshing ur healh almost every time you almost die, and put on like a class mod to increase it by 5 or 6, idk if there is a +6 class mod for grit, but here is some tips for axton at lvl 61, try it out guys who have an axton at lvl 61, its fun!
It's a beast with every character. Constant shield empty skills; big boost in health and all around damage reduction. You can do some crazy broken thing with this shield.
the skills from the harmony skill tree and the class mods and relics depend on whether you want more max health or better regeneration. it isnt the best thing you can do but 50% more movement speed and health only gameplay definetly is a fresh experience compared tho the "must not take damage" bee shield strategie.
massive levels of respect for playing in flames at the end
with all of the heath regen and health stealing skill plus the terramorphus relic and some fitting classmod this is really good for the siren.
Well the stats aren't calculated like that, but still a heap of damage resistance, melee damage, and with Release the Beast's ability to fully heal you when transforming and it's instant CD, it's a pretty brutal combo.
Rough Rider + Legendary Sickle on Kreig Mania tree, holy shit
The red text refers to Teddy Roosevelt and his Bull Mouse Party, it is actually his quote from when he got shot while giving a speech.
Oh nvm and also with that shield as a siren you'll be able to tank any bullet damage if you have 5 points in kenetic reflection and had another 3-4 points with a class mod as long as you get kills.
I play as Krieg and his fire rate and reload speed increase based on perks. There are other bonuses as well, which make Krieg more dangerous without shields, but it's pretty cool.
It's impossibly good on the Siren because when taking health damage you CAN have a 100% chance to do the same damage back. Of course you'll need a class mod to get it to 100% but still it's good with moxxi weapons because they heal you.
I have the rough rider. Of you add the shot up glass skill (in the blue skill tree) with crisis management that's gonna be a lot of damage.
"It takes more than that to kill a bull moose" is a statement said by Theodore Roosevelt regarding to his assassination attempt.
You forgot to mention that, with the Rough Rider equipped, Redeem Soul WILL NOT put you in Fight for Your Life. Also, you can active Release the Beast after reviving someone.
I'm Axton and got the shield lvl 61 ;) I also got The Bee lvl 61, Hawk Sniper 61. Being Axton, playing solo all the way through in UVHM and also DLC that's not just talk talk but you get nice reward and you feel awesome being baddass. Died alot can tell you that.
For Grieg the Psycho this shield would increase Melee Damage even more and allow (nearly) constant stacks of Bloodlust (FYI if anyone was interested.)
When going down the path of the tank with Krieg the rough rider is amazing. When he uses redeem the soul he doesn't go down, and if he has release the beast after reviving someone you can immediately enter it. It will also boost his health a lot if he has feed the meat, I have a class mod that makes my feed the meat 11 and with all the boosts to my health I have over 600k health to work with. I myself think it is the best for him, but everyone can have their own opinions about this.
Sprayed my keyboard with coffee at that "jimmy john" line.
if i recall, the gunzerkers inconceivable skill is based of off low shield and hp. so this shield with inconceivable( which gives the gunzerker +20% to not use ammo while shields are depleted and if you have low health) will techincally give the gunzerker infinite ammo. right?
It's up to +50%
It's basically a middle finger to the raid bosses.
Lol i have the legendary soldier class mod for Axton that increases up to 5 skills by an extra 5 points, and i already have a 5/5 skill that increases his gun damage by another 35% and increases his mag size so ill be doing 70% damage to an enemy.
Torgue is the best. You get access to all of the Torgue legendaries. All you need is 1 hour of farming for 613 Torgue Tokens and you can get any Torgue legendary guaranteed. Much better than farming enemies and hoping to get it by chance. Also, you get 2 epic Moxxi weapons the Slowhand and the Kitten, as well as an explosive sniper rifle (which is a really rare drop), and Pyro Pete the Invincible.
It's an ok Dlc. It does have it's really cool things, like this shield, it's totally worth the $10, the final boss is pretty hard to kill, and the armory at the end = lots of Legendaries, E-Techs, and pearlescents.
I think you're wrong, it is about teddy Roosevelt but , he actually was shot on the way to giving a speech and in the middle of the speech he showed the gunshot wound to the crowd and said "it takes more than that to kill a bull moose " c;
You could just use the love thumper because its delay is so long as well as it has nova damage every time you melee an enemy.
Mechromancer has an ability that lets you give deathtrap a copy of your shield.
20% damage resistance and another 20k hp could be huge.
you can't use Preparation here because the Shield needs to be full, not empty. The game treats the shield as empty rather than full here, otherwise Crisis Management won't be on. The Pointman still works though.
The red text is a reference to Theodore Roosevelt. He said those words after he got shot while delivering a speech.
Surprised he only talked about damage improvement. With such a major boost to health, powers that let you regenerate health (preparation regen while full) and (able regen when injured enemy) become much more powerful. Also any power that activates when shields are full or shields are empty.
Is there a class mod that guarantees an increase to the Crisis Management skill? that could probably make it even more overpowered if you built a character around a combination of that and this shield.
At higher levels you may as well not have a shield since you lose it so fast to like two or three bullets. The Rough Rider pretty much cuts out the middleman.
The Lovethumper is pretty Awesome, too. If you like Hellborn the Firehawk but if you go for Bloodlust / Mania it is Lovethumper.
Hey everybody! I made a video about the Rough Rider Shield with the Commando against the Bunker with a full lvl 50 Health Build.
