One of these hidden skill gems is definitely her Upshot Robot. This allows Death-Trap to stay out for a much longer period time, as long as you or Death-Trap are able to take a foe. But this skill tree contains a lot of hidden gems that even the most advanced players of Borderlands 2 would hesitate to pass up since they go great with skills from the other skill trees.
This first skill tree for Gaige, which is primarily designed for first time or casual players of the Borderlands series, may seem to make the game easier for you and could be considered “easy mode” for a lot of people.
Speaking of her skill trees, let’s get a brief run-down of each below: Best Friend Forever She’s perfect for fitting any type of play style and more thanks to her very unique and versatile skills that can be found through out each of her three skill trees. Gaige and one of her many obtainable headsīut that’s not all Gaige the Mechromancer is capable of. However, she more then makes up for it with some of her call-outs such as calling her co-op buddies “noobs” as she’s reviving them and yelling out the famous phrase from Unreal Tournament, “M-m-m-monster Kill.” She also has possibly the best customized heads at her disposal that range from making her looking like a zombie to a deranged bunny and a few characters from the Mass Effect series. In addition to having a bad-ass bot as your disposal, Gaige herself seems to act like an older Tiny Tina which can be either good or bad, depending on what you thought about Tina. For instance, if you go down the Little Big Trouble skill tree, it allows Death Trap to practically become an elemental tank for you which will wreck havoc on anything it comes across and melt any foe like a hot knife through butter, even during the True Vault Hunter Mode. There are a lot of things you can do with your pet Death-Trap. With each slain baddie, you feel much more ‘Bad-Ass’. However, this time around, Gaige and her pet Death-Trap are simply more fulfilling and give you a much better sense of accomplishment. For starters, Gaige the Mechromancer seems to easily fill in the void of what Mordercai and his pet Bloodwing brought from the very first Borderlands with the whole ‘sending-out-a-pet-to-to-aid-you-in-battle’ aspect. With an already wide variety of different play styles that Borderlands 2 vanilla characters offer, one would ask, what exactly does Gaige the Mechromancer have to offer to players who are further looking to expand their Borderlands 2 experience and what exactly does she bring to the table. But what exactly is she about and how does she fair against her fellow vault hunters who’ve joined together to stop Handsome Jack from potentially destroying Pandora.
After weeks of waiting for the newest character class to be added to Borderlands 2, Gaige the Mechromancer has finally landed a week earlier then we expected and is now playable in the vast world of Pandora.
