Talk:Borderlands Wiki

1st Person Pronouns Who the HELL is the person who uses "I" when writing strategies? THAT is very un-f*@#-ing professional! STOP it! Whoever is writing articles like that. Sheesh, I will have to clean up all the articles now...--Mishulover69 19:12, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

This isn't exactly meant to be a professional publication; heck, for many people contributing this is their first wiki. This thing is still fairly new so the important part is to just get raw data collected; it'll all get refined over time. Personally, speculation in articles bugs me more than bad grammar and writing; regardless, if you're going to do some of the clean-up, more power to you. =) -- Eno Khaon 21:14, November 8, 2009 (UTC)

Heheh, ookie dokie :D --Mishulover69 04:03, November 9, 2009 (UTC)

Out Riders Section
I would develop this section myself but dont know how to develop sections but i think there should be a section on the "outrider" enemy, the outrider is the bandits version of there vehicle..., really brings out the mad max of the video game as well --Number1xer0 14:10, November 13, 2009 (UTC)

Article of the Day... erm... Year?
Anyone want to change the Article of the Day? The Crimson Lance have had their 15 minutes of fame, bring in the giant toothy vagina aptly named The Destroyer. --Spaphrenchie 00:42, November 21, 2009 (UTC)

Lockdown
We need to lock-down many articles for the wikia mostly because of trolls and little brats who are smart-asses A few of the articles that require the lockdown are Claptrap and The missions pages (which I had to fix a numerous of times)--Mishulover69 19:04, November 24, 2009 (UTC)

Weapon Image Category
Should there be a category for weapon images? --HybridDragoness 09:13, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Images of the varieties of each weapon are on the talk page for that particular type of weapon. --Spaphrenchie 15:34, November 27, 2009 (UTC)



The pages they get used on is a separate issue from categorization. Files are supposed to get categories too. Ideally everything should be in at least one category, and every category should be in at least one higher categories level, all the way up to Category:Content. So we need to choose names.



I propose Category:Content -> Category:Borderlands images -> Category:Images of weapons



Edit: hey there's a special page to help Special:UncategorizedFiles go go



Edit2: ookay for some reason Category:Browse is our top level here and Content is inside it (?), and there's already Category:Images in browse, my bad. So I'm putting Category:Images of weapons under Browse->Images then --Raisins 19:42, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Nice; looks like there will be plenty of categorizing to do 0_O. I'll make a start on it. --HybridDragoness 20:20, November 27, 2009 (UTC)

Hero, instead of Classes; Character Classes, not Names
2 Suggestions: 1. Can we change "Classes" on the homepage menu to "Heroes"? It's got a nicer, grander and nobler ring to it, that is how the characters were introduced in the "Meet the Classes" preview trailer, and it would foreshadow the adventures of the character (especially at the end). 2. The pop-up menu to "Classes" lists the names of the characters, not the classes they represent in the game. It should list is "Hunter", "Siren", "Soldier" & "Berserker". "Mordecai", "Lilith", "Roland" and "Brick" are actually the default names of the characters. Even if that's how they're introduced in the game and in the ads for the game, a) you can change and personalize your characters by giving them new names, and b) your character is never addressed in-game by his or her name: it's always "you", "stranger", "off-worlder" and whatnot. The Character Classes should have primacy, not their default names. (Forgot to sign...)--Mensahero 02:56, November 30, 2009 (UTC) I agree in principle however I feel that the name "hero" is not the best choice. There is not much about the characters that is particularly heroic; They are mercenaries, doing jobs for the rewards and the loot, never mind the business of stealing ammunition from people's mail boxes. The "Hunter", "Siren", "Soldier" and "Berserker" are the most fitting in my opinion. -- WarBlade 03:04, November 30, 2009 (UTC) I reckon the category should be called 'Characters' and characters should be referred to as their classes. --HybridDragoness 08:33, November 30, 2009 (UTC)

We could call it 'mercenaries' as that is what the characters get referred to in the game.

 * Gearbox refers to them as Character Classes if gearbox wills it so then so shall it be done. Changes are unnecessary. I... I am the King! 06:34, August 19, 2011 (UTC)

Co-op
Is it possible to play coop with 2 of the same characters or does each person need a different character to play coop?--71.194.190.109 23:08, December 23, 2009 (UTC)

Two of the same character type can be played together in co-operative games, yes. -- WarBlade 02:12, December 24, 2009 (UTC)

Quotes
I see that we have quotes for people such as Marcus Kincaid, Scooter, T.K. Baha, Zed and so on, so forth. Even Sledge has his own section. So what I was wondering is, why not give Roland, Mordecai, Brick and Lilith their own quotes sections? If anything they'd have more than some characters. They have several lines that play when they get a critical hit, they say things when they help another player up, when they open a chest to reveal guns, and when they see health, etc. I've even heard Roland say "Burning daylight, fool" when I left him idle for once. It seems only right to give them their quotes sections.

Anyone with me on this? -- Five Dog  Talk  16:34, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah =D--wadjet2 23:41, February 14, 2010 (UTC)

Mini Steve!?!
So, I downloaded the new DLC, and I was having fun messing around in a bandit camp. I had found a red chest when I heard 'Heyooo!' So I went outside, and sure enough, a midget named "Mini Steve."Tacoooo 03:11, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

How far into the DLC were you? I'll keep an eye out for this. 03:12, February 24, 2010 (UTC)





Makes sense. First DLC had the ECHO with Steve on it, second one had him as one of Moxxi's husbands, so I guess this is how he makes a cameo in the third. I'd say it's an established tradition/running gag at this point. -- 03:15, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

I heard that one too! I almost didn't want to kill him. Beetle179 03:16, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

Just realized, Mini Steve is the kind of midget that pops out from treasure chests. Just had one pop out in the Lockdown Palace Area. Tacoooo 03:59, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

We need more "real life"articles
We need more articles like "borderlands" "Soundtrack", etc...

There is a LOT of trivia to be put on that kinds of articles.

Some kind of description, please?
For those of us who arrive here by idly clicking an advert on some other Wikia, how about some kind of brief description as to what "Borderlands" actually is? I rather assumed it was something to do with a series of books I read a while back, but obviously I'm wrong. HTH HAND —Phil | Talk 17:26, March 20, 2010 (UTC)

Un-Encyclopedic statements in articles, no Manual of Style
I have noticed that this wiki has a large amount of Un-Encyclopedic statements in articles. I, often reading and editing wikia's, am used to the common policy of unbiased, formal, and encylopedia like style of writing.

However, due to this being a fairly large wikia, I was/am confused that so many pages that do not meet this, I went to look at this wiki's Manual of Style, only to find there isn't one.

Seeing as how this is the case, I am heistant to remove or change the un-encyclopedic into a more formal format. Should I do so? Jabberwock xeno 22:10, June 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * user did not, in fact, look very hard Borderlands Wiki:Manual of Style has been published since 16:15, 9 January 2009 . 22:33, October 25, 2010 (UTC) (not that anyone pays it any mind)

I'm going to assume that you aren't referring to talk pages or trivia sections in articles. If that's the case, there's nothing stopping you from altering the language to sound more informative than personal.GT: ConceitedJarrad XBOX360 22:15, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

I personally assume that it is because this game is not the sort that attracts the uptight people who must have everything tight and controlled in its own way... this game is laid back and fun, and it would make sense that the wikia that is maintained by people who play said game would make it that way, plus having the wikia like this actually makes it fun to read, making the wiki more used.. so in all liklihood changing the format drastically would be an ill advised move-TOXICMOOSEDOG13

Is the countdown actually accurate now?
And what is the source of it? That was a real let down earlier. I had to drag my xbox and TV down to the PC room because I don't have a wi-fi receiver for it.GT: ConceitedJarrad XBOX360 01:49, September 28, 2010 (UTC)

Newbie Glitch or ... ?
Hello, love your site - I use it constantly while simultaneously playing through Mad Moxxi and Robolution. Have completed all the other expansions twice before and am now lvl 61. Needless to say, it makes Robolution missions "Trivial" and all Arena missions are at "Normal" (lvl 61 enemies oye!). My game tells me I am playing PT2. I do not know what PT2.5 is. I only play solo missions (for now). I play PC version on Windows XP SP3.

Could not readily find whom the sysop was here so am posting this HERE hoping to get a response somehow on something that just happened to me.

In Robolution, where I go for quick missions in between Moxxi's time-consuming Arena rounds, I had just completed the killing of General Knoxx-Trap during Op:Trap Claptrap Phase One and was pleasantly surprised to find the virtual 'Vault' of weapons etc in the rooms directly connected to the place you go to do the second part of the Bridge thing (activate the console). Especially considering that I am locked (glitched) out of the ACTUAL "Vault" no matter how many times I kill the human General in his Devastator trying to complete "It's Like Christmas" because I had used the "vault glitch" and had dropped through the floor etc. Because I neglected to remember the rules associated with the glitch, I walked through the elevator shaft which marked my mission there as having "collected loot". I am unable, however, to enter the passage with the red walls - the large door (immediately after the BYOC door) stays closed everytime I've tried it after.

Anyways, earlier tonight I picked up the mission from Tarturus mission board to kill the 'robot chicken'. Went to Sanders, killed the chicken and was just trying to find my way out again whist grabbing anything shiny when I found myself at the place where that little metal bridge drops down for you (at the red weapons chest) after you exited the 'console room' (re: Op Claptrap Phase One) so I decided to hunt around, crossed the bidges and open area and found myself back in the 'console room' again. AND ALL THE LOCKERS AND CHESTS WERE FULL OF ORANGE, PURPLE, AND BLUE STUFF AGAIN ! So I got to handpick (again) all the best stuff from about a hundred different lvl 55-61 items.

Is this a new glitch? Or is this normal? General Knoxx-Trap was even seen through the door at the bottom, though when I went back down there a minute later the door did not open to show him again.

Anyone?

Cheers, SeniorSavage

And on that note, the point of this topic is what, exactly?

Claptraps New Robot Revolution Trophy/Achievment List Help
Claptraps Robot Revolution Trophy/Achievment List Help 

This is the first time ive ever done a blog/forum for any type of anything. Just looking to get some fellow borderlands players input on the trophy/achievment list.

So...

I got my platinum trophy before any of the borderlands dlc ever came out. It was fairly easy as im sure it was for all you other players. I was able to get all the trophies for Dr. Zeds Zombie Island and The Secret Armory Of General Knoxx. Im about halfway through the trophy/achievment list for Mad Moxxis Underdome only needing to complete the larger challenges in two of the three arenas. My main focus right now is getting all my trophies/achievments for Claptraps New Robot Revolution. The only trophies/achievments I have left to obtain is the The Lubricator (found 25 oil cans), Bobble-Trap (collect 15 Claptrap bobbleheads), and What A Party! (Collected 3 panties, 5 fish in a bag and 15 pizzas). I dont know if anyone else out there is having trouble finding all these parts. I understand that all you need to do is keep destroying the claptraps in order to obtain these items but i have yet to see a single bobblehead and the panties and pizzas are almost impossible to find it seems. If anyone has any input or helpfull tips I would love to hear them and im sure if anyone else is having these issues they will appreciate it also.

hey,newbie here level 19 mordicai hunter so i have some questions what level do you sugest i should try to beat sleadge and with a shotgun or sniper,pistal,assult rifle,rocket lancher,and what gun.71.153.40.204 21:25, December 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * if available, i would go in with a shock launcher and switch to burning revolver when shield is down. keep an eye on his little helpers for a second wind, if needed. unlike bone head, sledge is beatable when you can get to him. 22:02, December 2, 2010 (UTC)

Not to sure on what the pros would do but both times i killed sledge i ran in with incendiary grenades and a combat shotgun. using mordecai i personally would use a sniper rifle with incendiary properties but it would be difficult killing him with a rifle seeing how theres not much room in the safehouse and you wont be very far from him.

Ummm I feel guilty but i stole an legit pearlscent "Serpens"
Some one was showing his pearlscent to his friend on an open Xbox live game and well.... I was a bit greedy and took it and exit the game with it and just wondering if it goes against any thing on Xbox live code of conduct (if it did im sure it won't be anything bad likemodding) and is it wrong to steal it like he also drop another one and it was a lvl 69 pearlscent assault rifle the "Serpens" and to make it even worst i think it's a straight up legit99.243.102.207 02:26, December 11, 2010 (UTC)

If someone could add a table for Claptrap's New Robot Revolution area's to this page, under Knoxx's table, that would be great. Made a weapon crate locations map/page for Scorched Snake Canyon, probably will do others that havent been done already. I'd do it myself but the table just isnt working for me so..

The End is near???
I have been a fan of Borderlands since it came out and I have to say it has been an exciting and enjoyable game. I have also thoroughly enjoyed this Wiki and the many excellent and informative articles and opinion exchanges I have read on it. Sometimes immature writers have placed forgetable items on the Wiki, but that is to be expected whenever you have a "gathering place" that is free flowing and free thinking. Perhaps some of these more immature contributors have learned from the others and become themselves a bit more mature and better.

And my hat is off to the administrator and others who have assisted in keeping this Wiki such an excellent site. Kudos.

I have been checking regularly for news, any news, that a sequel, follow-on or next generation version of Borderlands is to be released imminently. Sadly I have read no such news and I fear this ride is just about over. I play Borderlands on an XBox. I have no desire nor interest in putting it on my computer, which I use for business, so I keep it separate on a gaming platform. I have seen where some enterprising players have developed ad-ons for Borderlands on the Windows platform and wish these were also available for XBox so I can keep playing Borderlands. I have played all the characters twice through both playthroughs and all the side missions. I mostly enjoy playing solo---sadly when I go out and join others who are playing, all too often players come on who lack the self discipline to share the joy and fun of the game, they arrive with rediculous modded weapons and shields and I usually drop out because it is just not fun that way.

But now I have played all the characters, I have found an abundance of weapons, some pearls but many exellent orange variants, and I have conquered all the bosses including Crawmerax time and again, all using legitimate methods.

But nothing new is on the horizon, so, as the title of this article notes, is this it, the end is near? 8mileshigh 14:21, June 7, 2011 (UTC) 8mileshigh

More DLC problems. Please help.
Hey guys, I need some help.

I have just downloaded and installed all 4 of the DLC for Borderlands on my PS3 and I can't access them.

I've had a look on the internet about how to play them and everyone says go to the fast travel and there will be new locations for each of the DLC. Unfortunately for me there aren't any new locations on my fast travel, does anyone know what I have to do?

I have 3 saves, all of which I started with out the DLC installed on my PS3. Does this effect it in anyway?

Some info about my saves just incase they effect how to play the DLC.

- A Siren class which I have completed the game with and have decided to do a second playthrough. I'm about a 1/4 the way through and is level 46.

- A Hunter class which I've just started which is level 5.

- A Soldier class which I've also just started which is level 9.

Can someone tell me what I am doing wrong?

Any help will be greatly appreciated :)

I would create a new character and complete the mission Skags At The Gate. A new character cannot access any DLC until this mission is completed. That may fix your problem, if not let us know. 06:19, August 12, 2011 (UTC)

GEN knoxx dlc sucks, my opinion
I bought the general knoxx dlc last week and i hate it, those damn crimson lances always popping out of thin air, always getting banked by them and all the vehicles i can drive in the dlc only takes a couple of shots from the lance gun. And those prodes are the most annoying things in the dlc. And omg the traveling, why isen't there any outpost within the dlc to transport around the map the dlc map. the only reason to play the dlc is to get the best gear.
 * try corrosive. try not to get shat shot @ while driving.  probes dont like shock.  fast travel is hardwired to the vanilla game.  adding to it requires rewrite of the core travel system, by that i mean its not going to happen.   01:54, February 21, 2012 (UTC)
 * Gen Knoxx received rewards for being one of the best DLC ever. I personally found it better than borderlands itself. The enemies are varied and original, Gen. Knoxx's humour is spot on, the world is giant and truly gives that "wasteland" feel. However, it IS challenging:
 * The problem appears not that you don't enjoy the DLC itself, but it is too hard for your character. FACT: Gen. Knoxx was designed to be done "late game" and by "late game" I mean once you have good guns. Don't try to force your way through. Take your time in arreas you enjoy, level up, search for loot... happypal (talk &bull; contribs) 07:47, February 21, 2012 (UTC)

Use the vehicles to their full potential to get from point A to point B, don't mess around in them. You can cut back on travel time by exiting the game and returning to T-Bone junction. You can skip side quests that you don't need to level and do them after level 69 to break up travel time. Treat probes as a nuisance that you kill last unless they are close (easy target). Use Damage Over Time on probes for when they fly away. If you get an anarchy honed on their critical, they die rather quickly (most things do). 08:31, February 21, 2012 (UTC)

Time to update the featured video?
Hi guys. I just heard about and watched the Borderlands 2 Release Date trailer. Borderlands was my favorite game of 2009, and I've been anticipating BL2 ever since then. Can't. Freaking. Wait.

Anyway, I immediately came to the wiki to see if news of the trailer and release date had been posted. It had, of course. I just wanted to suggest that it might be a good idea to update the Featured Video section by replacing the old teaser trailer with the new release date trailer.

Keep up the great work! I'll definitely be using the wiki again as we approach September 18th. JoePlay http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb33036/wikia/images/e/e9/WikiaStaff.png (talk)  16:38, February 22, 2012 (UTC)

sights
Hey Guys!

don't know where to put it else, but i've done some research. i've made screenshots of virtually all variants of sights in the game - yes, even iron sights. so there's a little nice to collection of screens on my desktop (should be around 50), but i'm to lazy to upload and arrange them in a nice order. it would be great if someone were ready to do this. if YOU are this someone, contact me, i'll send you the screens via email. love and kisses, Archangel 17:31, April 26, 2012 (UTC)

Europe Countdown
No, not a reference to the song but I reckon the front page could also do with a countdown timer for countries outside of the US of A too. You know, to let people know this wiki isn't biased or anything. After all, America isn't the only place in the world! --SlinkyGuy (talk) 19:47, August 30, 2012 (UTC)

Unfortunately, even the USA countdown is inaccurate. Says currently, "2 Days 19 Hours" when this doesn't even match up with eastern standard time. 3 Days 2 Hours for MST at 10pm MST (wikia 2 Days 19 Hours) that's still 3 hours inaccurate from Eastern Standard Time. Where do they have the UTC set to??? --Jerokhna (talk) 04:51, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

Clean up in preparation for 2
I'm going to suggest cleaning this page out a bit, I mean this is a nightmare for trying to edit the front page or getting ideas upon layouts etc. The posts about waiting for Borderlands 2, opinions upon DLCs and such should really be moved.

Don't just say its because it's not a profesional page, the idea of a Wiki is that its easy to navigate and edit.

I think the drop down bars on Borderlands 2 need editing to reflect the same choices on the Borderlands drop down (Items--> Artifacts, class mods, shields etc)

It just needs to fit the House Style. Will probably need new pages, not a split for the same page (especially for things like Artifacts which are completely different)345tom (talk) 18:03, September 15, 2012 (UTC)

Borderlands 2 Lootable Objects?
Just wondering. When will there be an article showing the lootable objects in Borderlands 2

Since I try checking and I only get Borderlands 1 Lootable Objects. 92.232.39.157 15:04, September 21, 2012 (UTC)

I just wanna say that I beat the game on 1st play through last night. Perhaps it's playing as Maya, or just bad luck with guns, but I didn't enjoy it that much. I found it to often be tedious and the jokes too frequent and forced, as though they tried to just squeeze a lot of them in.

The new grenade mods are awesome. As for guns, again it may be my poor luck with looting, but very little seemed much different than the first game. And no mashers? I died a little inside when I realized this. I was always scraping by with crappy guns. Perhaps another play through on a different character will improve some of the loot drops.

I don't have experience with it myself, but friends have told me that playthrough 2 has loot that's roughly 3-4x better, so maybe that makes up for it.

Mobile wikia?
Having just gotten my first smartphone (a little behind the times :P), I have fallen prey to how terrible the "mobile" version of this wikia is. I am using Firefox on Android 4.0.3 (Ice Cream Sandwich), and the wiki is nearly unusable, as well as being a completely different theme; all black-on-white text/backgrounds. It seems this is a widespread issue with the wikia system, so many other users may be experiencing the same thing. Is that something we can combat, or are we at the mercy of the wikia? I am open to other suggestions, like using a different browser, for example, but I am quite fond of Firefox, and I'm not sure if it would help anyway. The Wikia wikia seems to say that it is the same for most mobile browsers Drinfernoo (talk) 03:02, October 14, 2012 (UTC)

I think that's Wikia in it's entirety, not just the BL wiki. I'm surprised that they haven't made a mobile version yet. CrackLawliet (talk) 03:09, October 14, 2012 (UTC)
