Gaige

Gaige is a Mechromancer. She is the fifth playable class in Borderlands 2. First revealed at PAX East 2012, the class will be added as post-release downloadable content releasing on October 9, 2012 for $9.99 USD / 800 Microsoft points. There will be no charge for those that pre-ordered Borderlands 2. Her skill grants her the ability to control the D₃₇₄-TP (Deathtrap). She is also used as a marketing tool outside of Borderlands 2 where the character is played as a personality on Twitter.

Skills

Gaige's skill tree features player challenge level variances. This would make her both the easiest and the most difficult character to play.
