Salvador

Salvador is the Gunzerker-class character in Borderlands 2. His main skill, Gunzerking, allows him to dual wield any weapon in the game for a limited time.

Background
Aged 36, Salvador is a local, born and raised on the planet Pandora, unlike the other Vault Hunters who have traveled there in search of the Vault. He stands at a height of 5'4". This stunted growth is revealed to be due to heavy steroid use throughout his life.

As a freedom fighter battling against the ever-encroaching imperialist corporations, Salvador becomes interested in the new Vault after hearing of its dangers while "interrogating" of the last survivor of a Hyperion strike team that tried to seize the Gunzerker's hometown of Ovejas. He did this by tearing off the Hyperion soldiers arm and breaking both legs.

Skills
Salvador's Action Skill, "Gunzerking," allows the player to dual wield two guns (of any type) at the same time. His Rampage and Gun Lust trees heighten his dual wielding skills and amplify weapon stats, while the Brawn skill tree boosts the amount of damage Salvador can take and dish out.

Base cooldown for Gunzerking is 42 seconds, base duration is 20.

Gun Lust
Focused on switching weapons, reloading, and gives Salvador various gun abilities.

Rampage
Focuses on extra ammunition and Gunzerking all or most of the time.

Brawn
Focused on physical toughness by soaking up damage due to massive health generation and also gives Salvador physical abilities.

Trivia

 * Salvador is wanted for a number of crimes, including manslaughter, theft, arson, destruction of property, trespassing, cannibalism, public indecency, and profanity.
 * Salvador is Spanish and Portuguese for "savior".
 * Many of Salvador's skill names are references to pop culture and film:
 * "I'm the Juggernaut" is from a viral video featuring a redub of 1990s X-Men cartoon featuring the Juggernaut frequently using the phrase, "Don't you know who I am? I'm the Juggernaut, bitch!" This line was also used in the movie X-Men: The Last Stand by Juggernaut, played by Vinnie Jones.
 * "Out of Bubblegum" is a reference to the movie They Live, where the main character, played by "Rowdy" Roddy Piper says "I have come to chew bubblegum and kick ass, and I'm all out of bubblegum." The line is more famously spoken by Duke Nukem rearranged into "It's time to kick ass and chew bubblegum, and I'm all out of gum."
 * "5 shots or 6" is a reference to the movie Dirty Harry when Harry Callahan bluffs a criminal by confusing the issue of the exact number of shots Harry fired. Harry flustered the criminal by describing how much damage only one bullet could truly do. The criminal became unsure if Harry fired all 6 shots or only 5 and gave up after Harry forced the introspective question of "Do I feel lucky?"


 * Of all 9 playable Vault Hunters across both games, Salvador is the only one to be born and raised on Pandora.


 * He has a tattoo on his index fingers, "Rite" on the right one, "Wrong" on the left.


 * The gunzerking lines "Time to overcompensate!" and "Screw you Freud!" are a complex reference to Freudian psychology. In addition to his stunted growth, heavy use of steroids likely caused his genitals to shrink, possibly to the point of uselessness. According to Freud, firearms are considered to be symbols of masculinity, leading to the common belief that they are often used to overcompensate for poor self-esteem in men.


 * The "I am invincible!" quote is a reference to the James Bond movie GoldenEye, in which one of the bad guys often says the quote after accomplishing a goal.
