I AM THE CONDUCTOR OF THE POOP TRAIN!!

10 years and still learning new things about this game, joltz is the real mvp for the borderlands community

Maya next?!🤔 She has a lot of cool interactions and id love to see some secret tricks you've been hiding

[riemaennchen]

One weird interaction with Kriegs melee damage comes from Crystalisks. Their crystals are very weak to melee damage. However with Krieg you only get the bonus melee damage against them if you use a weapon with a blade. I think Zer0 actually has the same problem.

I like to think Krieg is the best designed character in BL2. Maybe not entirely in balance but overall as a translation from Bandits and Psychos I think it is incredibly interesting and faithful.

[Strkiller]

There is no me, there is no you! There is only the never ending spit and bile of combat! The twenty-four hour murder spree of shining metal! I drink the blood and eat the loot and breathe the numbers, because I! AM! A MONSTER! NOW AND FOREVER!

another important trick, corrosive is the longest lasting dot out of the three from what I remember, so using corrosive to trigger dot triggered effects on krieg is the best way to go about it. Its why joltz used a pandemic for the elemental elation trick. Using an infection works too

This video is a huge blessing for my Krieg build. I’m currently going through UVHM and he’s definitely a very finicky character who can very easily be built or played wrong. Even so, he has been my favorite play through.

[Linkiscool]

The buzzaxe giving rocket ammo is one of the funniest and useful tips I've seen so far.

[jordanbrad]

I know it's in the card for Release the Beast but I have a feeling some people may still not know. To determine if you are at the right amount of HP for Release the Beast you can just look for the exclamation mark next to your health bar. If the exclamation mark is there, using your action skill will activate Release the Beast.

Krieg is the most interesting character in all of Borderlands history from a gameplay perspective.
His skill trees all do their own thing but have synergies and his “goal” is a unique in a way that encourages aggressive engagement.
I still believe that most characters have boring playstyles with massive gameplay overlap but Krieg is the exception and that makes his the most fun.

[tellierbop]

Hellborn is such a fun skill tree especially with flame of the firehawk

[CosyBibi]

Yo, Joltz, don’t give up on your ultimate Krieg playthrough. You’re by far the best BL content creator out there so don’t give up, you beautiful bastard!

[songs-higp]

Hey Jolt I just wanted to say thank you for making youtube videos and talking the time to make them, you have made me better as a borderlands player and many other people. I love your videos and especially the new ones as I am now able to keep up with you and I'm bench watch your videos a lot longer. I hope you keep up with the content and have a hod day/night

[ozeem]

The buzz axe has to be the most confusing wepon. It's a pistol but only for fire rate and has splash damage so you can have tons of rockets

[hobbinsjogsohn]

I have 1000+ hours on exclusively Krieg and knew everything except the fact that gun melee wasn't getting the extra melee damage. You never cease to teach me something new.

[FREEDOMLOVINAMERICAN]

These were great! I’ve always struggled with my melee Krieg build, these tips helped. Thanks Joltz!

[manwithoutadollar]

This was very informative. I knew about the Sheriff Badge increasing fire rate for Buzz Axe throws, but not that skill in the fire tree.
Plus that was (one of) my gripes with Krieg, which was the feeling that I kept downing myself (from Silence the Voices) and I didn't feel like I could kill anything fast enough. Now I have an idea of what to go for for melee Krieg.
Keep it up Joltz!

[bigstinky]

Ive been using alot of these for a long time but even still I've learned something. Thank you for helping me play my favorite character even better

[coreyh]

Dude I've been watching your videos for about 3 years now and still love the content your speed of voice it's all awesome keep up the good work bro!
