How Hard is it to Beat Borderlands With ONLY Unique Gear?

Before you all spam "where is the legendary only borderlands 1?" there are no base game dedicated drop sources, making legendaries world and mission-drop only, so I am pushing that horrible idea to the back of the list.
In the first of my next series of challenge runs for borderlands, I see how difficult it is to beat Borderlands (1) with only unique gear. I honestly thought this run was going to be way worse than it was, in fact, I had a ton of fun in this run! The only real annoyance was getting a shield and Mad Mel, but Med-Kits were the saving grace of this run.
Borderlands 1 is a ton of fun, and I heavily recommend doing another playthrough if you haven't in a while. And my favorite part of the whole game is of course General Knoxx, probably the funniest character in the series.
This video took way longer than I expected to edit, due to me trying a new editing method, but I have learnt some ways to edit a bit faster for the future.
I also planned to make the "Erik's Valuables" part move, but since my 3 brain cells have no clue where to even start to do that, making it a still picture was all I could manage.

some more examples of the can you beat tiny tina's wonderlands as mortal kombat characters are raiden=shock only, scorpion=fire only, reptile=poison only, subzero or frost=frost only, scarlet=dark magic only, shang tsung= spell damage only, ermac= dark magic hydra or pixie weapon only, quan chi= companion only, shao kahn= kleave axes or bonk hammers melee only, kotal kahn= valora weapons only, rain= soak effect only( will count use of stuff like frost tho since its the closest element to water.) and kabal or kenshi= swift swords only (it fits to an extent for both of them.

This is actually pretty dope

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

Those all sound awesome! I just wish that TTWL was more popular.2 neat run ideas I have are using the Spellshot's arrow barrage only (which is just an ability-only run, but still a cool idea) and a run where I can only fight when I'm using the Graveborn's blood sacrifice (I believe) ability. I don't really want to say the characters the runs are based off yet, but if I do the runs, they will be awesome.

@JWBLegend 10 месяцев назад

I would argue that Legendaries count as uniques. As long as an item has red flavor text I think it should count

@49ersfanMatt 10 месяцев назад

yea i agree it does count

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

Considering the rarity of legendaries in BL1, you could count them. Since they are world drops (and because I want to save legendary only for later) I won't count them for my unique-only runs. I already did legendary-only for all the other games so far, and I want to explore all the unique gear instead.

@artemistheninjahorse5741 Месяц назад

Legendary and unique have red text, purple and blue with red text are unique, orange/gold are legendary

@49ersfanMatt 10 месяцев назад

you can use the skull masher any gun with red text is unique

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

Well technically, yes, but I want to keep legendaries in their own challenge, as the unique-only run focuses on looking at all the cool gear you might not normally use. And for all the other games in the series, I have the legendary-only runs that focus on well, the legendaries.

@Vort23 6 месяцев назад

I recently just picked up enhanced, i was putting off DLC cause i heard that it always scaled to level. Glad to see i can run it without being worried about baddies around every corner.

@LookIntoGaming 6 месяцев назад

I've always thought the DLCs were super difficult, until I figured out the right order to complete them in, then you are usually at the right level or slightly over leveled for them.

@thenicodem9469 10 месяцев назад

I'm actually revisiting BL1 nowadays (at least when I have time ) and I plan to continue trough PSQ, 2 and 3. I used toplay the 3 first one on my old xbox 360, but now that i have a pc i'ts much better. Gawd the Nostalgia hits hard

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

That's basically what I do for Borderlands games, I do a run of each game in the series, then wait awhile then repeat the process. As odd as it sounds, BL1 is my least played game, and I forget just how good and fun it is.

@LookIntoGaming 7 месяцев назад

I agree. Even though really difficult runs are enjoyable to watch, I can understand why they take so long to make. The other reason the challenges I do are relatively easy is because I'm not actually very good at BL2.

@BulldogPCs 10 месяцев назад

Pretty good run and I liked the singing at the end, though I think you did miss five or six uniques, not counting the Rider. In the base game, you missed three or four guns; Marcus has three quests and beating the second one makes Helena give you a quest to kill a boss called One-Eyed Jack. He drops a unique revolver called the Madjack, and turning in the quest gives you a unique combat rifle called the Sentinel. The third gun is the Dove, which you get by doing the missions to unlock the bounty board in Rust Commons East and then doing the three quests with Altar Ego in the name. The fourth gun is the Nailer, which I'm guessing you probably got but I don't remember it being shown in the video since you only really focused on the Patton. If you didn't get it, it's from the side mission you get in Rust Commons East to kill a scythid named Bleeder. The other two uniques are from the Knoxx DLC; over in I think the Sunken Sea you can find a midget named Thirsty inside a shack near the start of the map (I think it's directly to your right after driving down to the sand), and he has a few missions. The first one gives you a pistol called the Chiquito Amigo for beating it, and the second or third one has you fight a boss named Motorhead, who's actually a sort of zombified cyborg version of Sledge according to the mission description. He has either a 5% or 10% chance to drop the Chopper and, as long as you don't turn in the mission, he'll respawn after you leave the map. There's also a dumpster in his arena that always spawns a loot homie.

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

First, thank you for the compliment! Hearing people say stuff like that makes my day! I also had no clue I missed that many uniques. My original plan was to collect all the uniques in each run, but with the amount of them in each game (and more importantly, clan wars has unique rewards on both sides I think) it would just take too long to get them all, but I will try to get as many as possible that are in my path to help diversify my gameplay.

@BulldogPCs 10 месяцев назад

Got it; I only really brought up that you missed some uniques since you mentioned in the video you thought you got them all besides the Rider, so I thought I may as well bring them up so that whenever you do another run of 1 (be it for a video or just for fun), you know about a few more cool guns you can get to spice up that playthrough and any future playthroughs. Some of those guns, namely the Sentinel, are even ones I regularly use, provided I didn't get a legendary or a really powerful regular gun that's better than it before I get it.

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

I had a feeling I wouldn't be able to get all the uniques, but my favorite parts of runs like this is using guns and gear I normally wouldn't use. For example: I completely forgot the Typhoon exists, and that was one of my favorite weapons in the run (besides the Patton, but I get that in most runs, I just swap to a better revolver when I get one).

@BulldogPCs 10 месяцев назад

The Patton's a gun I also usually end up using, provided I don't have a better revolver before I get it. It's definitely in the running for my favorite unique in the game, though it's a shame the Enhanced edition of Borderlands 1 made it so it can't spawn with a scope or ironsights anymore for some reason

@Broman-____-77 4 месяца назад

The bone shreader is a pain in the a## to get bc of borderlands 1 legendary chances 😢

@LookIntoGaming 4 месяца назад

Huh? It's a unique (that's why I used it in this run), and I think it's a guaranteed drop from both sources. There is a legendary called the Savior that's very similar, and apparently it can merge with the bone shredder, if that's what you're talking about.

@stacycampbell7470 9 месяцев назад

Legendary are unique

@LookIntoGaming 9 месяцев назад

In a way, but uniques are generally one-per-run from missions, and rarely farmable from certain enemies. Legendaries are mostly world drop, and can be obtained multiple times. I should have specified this in the video, but hindsight is 2020 and all.

@SuperbFairy 10 месяцев назад

For the idea of trying a run with legendaries only, couldn't you run it on goty enhanced version just bc you start the game with two legendaries in your inventory? I know enhanced version sucks but it would make the run idea viable

@LookIntoGaming 10 месяцев назад

How do you acquire the legendaries? This playthrough was on the enhanced version, and the 2 guns I started with were from shift codes. Legendary only would still be insanely difficult, due to the world drop legendary chances, so I would need to find some way to farm a group of enemies or other legendary source.
