New most favorite thing ever. Shotgun sniping. Found me an above 80% accurate shotgun with decent explosive chance and a scope. Makes for awesome sniping. You just have to get in the general area and a few of the pellets hit.

Sledge is a bitch.
Took me to resort to... well, actual strategy to beat him.
He's stupidly fast for such a big character. No worries for him to get up-close with that shotty of his.

Beat him, though! Now I'm at Lucky's, jus' chillin'.

Haha, I unloaded my rocket launcher, then Berserked him. My friend was a hunter and had a sniper with explosive damage. If you jump just right his melee isn't that effective. He doesn't use this shotgun at point blank either.

We been fightin' two different Sledges. ;)
Seriously, he was a bitch. Eventually I resorted to cheap shots with my Assault rifle and dropping the Scorpio in his room, and then dashing out again. (Didn't know you could actually open the door again, the first few times. XD)

I didn't have much problem with Sledge himself, it was the damn burning psychos that would come up behind me when my shields were down and land a killing blow, forcing me to turn around and switch to my revolver or melee and kill them to get a second wind. The funny part is, I landed the killing blow on Sledge while dying because I couldn't turn far enough to hit the burning psycho that had gotten me. Gave me enough xp to hit lvl 20, too.

Even though I've got some complaints about the game, I am having a massive amount of fun as Mordecai.

Firs ttime round Sledge was a bastard, but only because there were 4 of us and I got bogged own trying to save one guy whilst he was being melee'd from behind. Inevitably I died and by the time I respawned Sledge was already dead.

The next time was easier, me and a soldier just unloaded on him and he dropped in seconds. Same thing happened with 9 Toes too. Very odd.

I never had troubles with Nine-Toes. He was pretty easy, really.

When I soloed Sledge (this is my first play through) that lady in my head was all like "Sledge has a crazy shield so you'll have to whittle that down first." So I was all worried. I ran in and dropped my Scorpio at a choke point and two shots later his shield was gone. Forgot I had a shock artifact equipped which was lucky for me. After that he got wedged between the shields of the turret and a wall. Then it just took like 4 shots with my Matador and along with some shots from my turret to kill him. My Matador was doing something like 28*12 damage and I pretty much shoved it in his face. He was dead before his buddies spawned. I didn't even see them until I turned to leave.

No I mean the next time round we basically 1 (2) shotted him. Obsurdly easy, even compared to the first time.

By the way Melfice, what level are you up to now? I was wondering if you're up for some co-op yet and I wanna make a new character anyway at some point, though if you're already too far along I may not be able to catch up.

Skraggzilla at lvl 16. Not that fun. I am guessing I need a corrosive weapon. Even with Sledge's shotgun I still couldn't do a lot of damage. We got through 1/3 of his health before we gave up. Out of shotgun, rockets and sniper ammo.
