Seems like I left out Nisha's tombstone skill. I did consider it and people had sent me clips of it but most of the kills using tombstone were crit swapping, which I am not personally a fan of cause anything can be strong with a crit swap.
Money Shot’s full potentials are still being ignore to this day. You get 8% more damage per point per mag size, up to a 12 mag, up to 11 points. You can get up to 1056% bonus damage on the last shot fired from a 12+ mag gun, or use that mag size on the main hand with a damage weapon in your off hand for the insane damage bonus
Mad respect for your list, agreed with nearly all of them, but surprised that Tombstone didn't make the list. - Highly accessible, brainless to activate - Universal application, global crits on every source of damage, and affected by any crit boosts - Can be abused with the mongol rocket launcher and crit boosting weapons to insta-kill bosses - Singlehandedly turns TPS's UVHM endgame into an ammo hunting simulator because all the enemies died on sight.

im kinda surprised that bore was above critical ascension. CA works on every boss whereas bore, in single player, can only work against a relatively small number of bosses. also money shot does 1056% bonus damage with 11 points because the bonus scales up to a mag of 12, not 10.
Still you have to ramp up but Bore is instant if you get a good line up and you don't have to stack to do immense damage Bore is kinda broken it's just getting the right shot and almost any weapon is viable you can kill OP bosses with a lvl one gun you can't do that with CA
@@kylonbell123 don't get me wrong, I can see the upsides to bore. But it still has one critically important ingredient, being the overlapping hitboxes. If the theoretical new boss doesn't have them, bore won't work but CA still will, even with the massive setup it requires.
IMO is because you have to run only snipers, run an ammo stockpile relic, prestack with a low level Droog/lyudia probably kill yourself for ammo regen. B0re is able to kill certain enemies with the weakest gun in the game. For mobbing, any singularity grenade works wonders.
@@nathanford6640 you can always stack on the training dummy and rebuy ammo. you dont need the stockpile relic, it just makes stacking easier. but tbh requiring a sniper isn't that bad when you consider that snipers have been consistently good across all of the borderlands games. also mobbing was not part of the ranking, only bossing against a theoretical new boss we know nothing about, hence why bore has a lower chance of working even if it can work with worse weapons.
Im taking Remnant if there are enemies in the arena by far.. Amara's Glamour is by far the most underrated and underused . It turns all the enemies that were "tethered" through ties that bind to fight each other. Think of the Mesmer nade in an action skill. Makes the takedowns a cake walk
very surprised to see mordecai's relentless from BL1 not mentioned here, in the context of that game it was the single most damaging and versatile skill you could pick up
@GrĪм RЄÂקЄR It isn't that he never played it. i watched him play through 1 live. The skill trees in 1 are just super tame by comparison to everything else in the series. You gotta remember a lot of the skill in this list are cranking out hundreds of millions if not billions of damage and a few of them. Nothing in 1 can do stuff like that
@Geraldinho it makes gaurdians slightly less irritating i guess but idk if id call it busted. A lot of enemies in the game just dont have a shield in one. In the three other games almost every character has the big "it" skill/s if you will and borderlands 1 kinda doesnt. The trees were very barebones and balancing was far better in 1 than in tps or 2 and mayhem scaling is just silly. The only way the 1 characters compare is nostalgia. They are great but not in the same league as 2 let alone 3 hunters
I feel like Jack/Timothy's Absolute Advantage is missing from this list. Basically constant free shots when your Digi-Jacks are out is insane and always on.
technically bore can work on almost every raid boss in the game with a turret / RTB krieg, but i agree with owen that coop should not be considered for this
That skill actually makes Mordecai worse in most cases. Enemies only flinch when you break their shields and shields in BL1 on most enemies are so weak that it isn't beneficial.
While it did require a very specific setup, Nisha's Tombstone was pretty nutty. And while sure it doesn't scale to endgame, but Cloudkill is all kinds of silly on your first playthrough as Maya.
I think they adjusted cloudkill coz Maya would be unkillable and really op With that and converge with slag and other elemental plus reaper combined plus free health etc.
You know that at 1:35, that clip is from a small channel called ES3TH. How many more clips have you stolen and put it on your channel to monetize off of?
I'm sure he knows where he got the video for Krieg from, it's just a little upsetting that he didn't ask me prior for permission to use it in his video or the lack of courtesy to at least crediting the original creator of that clip and a few of the other videos that he used. He credited @JoltzDude139 though, because he's a big content creator, unlike me. :)
She's pretty much the most broken character they've ever made. On par with Gunzerker and he is basically cheating with his skills so the fact the she can compete with him legitimately is saying something.
Another honorable mention is BL1 Mordecai's Bloodwing skill. In version 1.0, looking down and using Bloodwing could spawn a near infinite amount of Bloodwing and even set a new BL1 Speed Run time. It was glitched and afterwards was patched. Great video! The list was very well made. :)
A pleasant surprise to see my video on Krieg's Pyro Pete Bloodsplosion featured here. It certainly can be an extremely strong skill by itself if you get that chain going, but if there won't be any enemies spawning in the raid boss' arena then it won't be very useful.
I feel like Mind Games could have been on that list somewhere, although it might be a different kind of overpowered? It basically trivialized the entire game when you had a 25% chance to Daze, especially on an SMG build.
@@SutaSafaia No sweat! If you have any crazy combinations I'd like to hear them. I'm currently working on viable builds without legendaries and an Infinity build. I will achieve it.
Eh, Anointments and Slag truly makes most of these skills busted. Without them I don't see them being that OP even with the best gear on higher Vault modes.
That one person that put 3 points into revenant "oh I guess now borderlands is going to have a reality collapse with the amount of damage I'm going to do with this orb"
I found eraser so unreliable dmg in most scenarios unless complex root. I can't put it number 1 in my book. In a scénario where we dont know what we facing, I definitely chose money shot or short fuse before eraser.
Came specifically to look at Cloud Kill, and it just had the honorable mention. :( I'm not sure how it is super late game, but I've never had it not one shot any normal mob and a lot of beefy mobs without tons of extra modifiers/multipliers for it.
You would I'd love to see? Who is the series best at each element. These would of course include the best immolator, corroder, electrocutor, freezer and blaster. For the last one as an example you could compare Brick, Kreig, FR4G-TR4P and Moze as to who is the best with explosive weapons. There would have to be rules like no flavor text weapons but blast-related skills and COMs could be considered
Additional comment for money shot, to get money shot chains you need the skill inconceivable. So money shot by itself is only the single bullet at the end of the mag, can't chain it without inconceivable
Eraser works with the unseen threat as well. I made a DeadShot Zane build with it. I like sniper in the Bl series. It took me a week or so of troubleshooting the build. I now use a queens call as well for bossing
If i had to pick only one id go with Sals "Get some" the key to permanent gunzerking being with only one point investment already as powerful as cooldown skills of other characters with 5 (20% effective cooldown extra provided you keep hitting stuff) Also it starts the cooldown while the skill is still active giving you "keep it piping hot" bonusses while gunzerking "Get some" is sals true workhorse i could make OP builds easily with 0 points in moneyshot, no kill like overkill and inconceivable but to make sal work he has to gunzerk Also another insanely good thing about "get some" which ive never seen anybody bring up bur is absolutely essential to the way i play sal is that you DONT have to fight enemies to trigger it basically anything that reacts in any way shape or form to being shot ingame will trigger it including skagpiles, plants like firemelons, barrels, gas bottles, vases and so on That is huge when you travel a lot by rocket jumping or just use the speed boost of "bus that cant slow down" You just have to shoot stuff around you every few seconds and never have to worry about cooldown
If this new Raid boss has more than two hit boxes that can be overlapped with at least minions, than this new boss will melt against Zero faster than ice cube in a boiling kettle.
God I love just how literally broken Hustler + Eraser is. Seeing a side by side of what Zer0 can do VS Zane is the reason I prefer bl3 to bl2, and I haven't played endgame with Zane or Zer0 lmfao
toboggan tends to be more reliable in eraser builds and you might already be hitting VM movespeed cap even with slightly slower sliding speed (not sure though)
In order for eraser to be as useful as urs is in ur builds It requires that aoe bonus on the hustler which is a real pain to farm imo money shot deputy sal build requires blue class mod which can be farmed quite easily doing Grendel the grog which is also very easy to get only hard thing being a rustler's orphan maker which could be substituted for quads and the hydra I Just think for consistency and ease money shot should be no.1
I love sniper Zer0 but I really wish Critical Ascensi0n was a little less iffy. Like, climb a ladder: Lose all stacks. Open your inventory or a shop interface: Lose all stacks. Swap to a non-sniper for just a second: Lose all stacks. Spend a few seconds out of combat, not hitting crits: Lose dozends of stacks. It's one of the most niche and least reliable high potential skills in history. The fact that in order to even get anywhere near maximum stacks you need to actually suicide so you can get a bit of ammo back because you aren't allowed to access shop inventories serves to illustrate just how absurdly designed it is.
In contrary to most of these comments, I loved this list, it’s made me feels very nostalgic for when I used to test all these busted ass mechanics out through the bl franchise
And this is why BL1 remains my favorite in the franchise. Skills were strong, definitely OP stuff overall in that game, but at the same time, it wasn't as insane as everything else they did. Game was still a blast, still fun, still tons of replayability and everything, but felt more like an RPG and less like a meme.
@@lapisgaming6093 i played BL3 on launch and picked moze as my first character, she was NOT mid by a long shot lmao, i genuinely thought the games bosses were a joke when i popped iron bear with rockets day1
I watched the full explanation with the graph and still have zero idea how eraser works. It needs to be a critical hit… how is that happening 2/3/4 etc times from a missile launcher?
i know you had to limit video length but no kill like overkill shouldve been an HM. It provides such ridiculous amounts of damage and is fairly reliable provided you have any mob type enemies in the arena. really put things like deputy sal into the upper echelons of damage that it really got to.
A really good skill is Gaige's skill that lets Deathtrap refill shields. It is due to a glitch though where if you travel to a new map while Deathtrap is doing it, you get instant recharge. Amazing with amp shields like the bee.
the problem i find with that skill is it seems to be only useful when using that glitch, i find a lot of the time DT will end up refilling enemies shields and the same thing happens with his fire laser which sometimes targets you for some reason, DT's Ai isn't great and does the opposite of what its supposed to do
Making this a pure damage list ignores some of the most overpowered shills ever though. Like Lilith's silent resolve, a 70% always on (effectively) damage resistance.
9:43 The game says that moneyshot does up to 80% damage/point in the skill. It actually does 96% damage/point. So at 11/5 you get 1056% damage. Also, you need to have a magazine size of at least 12 to get the full bonus. Not 10.
Cloudkill deserves to definitely be a number 1 or 2 the fact that it will insta kill all enemies in normal mode or tvhm is very overpowered and it can even do tons of damage in uvhm, also just the entire skill of gunzerking itself is definitely number one and you cannot argue that it is the most broken over powered skill
I don't know about that number 1 skill. Compared to the Amara skill that only needed a single mob to make it work for a guaranteed raid boss kill, Zane was clearly having trouble making the trick work as intended.
In the video, the boss is 1 quadrillion hp. this is 1,000,000,000,000,000 hp. He was reliably 25%'ing and 50%'ing killing it. So half of 1 quadrillion, 1/4th of quadrillion. This is INSANE damage. Remember, the 1 quadrillion HP is modded in to limit test. Graveward HP on mayhem 10 is 500 billion. 1/4th of a quadrillion is QUITE A LOT of damage (250 trillion).
@@cybercorn5966 you can see he systematicaly waits for graveward to slam his hand and such. In this situation you got reliable insane damage. But just try in regular M11 graveward, seer en such to just kill as fast as possible. You will see that eraser is unreliable.
Seems like I left out Nisha's tombstone skill. I did consider it and people had sent me clips of it but most of the kills using tombstone were crit swapping, which I am not personally a fan of cause anything can be strong with a crit swap.

Was messing around with the eraser skill using a rebound . Did 215 billion damage with Zane and my PS4 blue screened lol
It even killed your PS4, more OP damage isn't possible. xD
The most overpowered skill in all of BL is just Iron Bear. No gear required, barely a build required, just kill everything, and you cannot die.

Coming From a bl2 zero player, nothing made me happier than when Zane got BORE 2.0 with eraser. Such a fun skill
What about borderlands 1 trespasser skill on hunter the one if you max out 5/5 on it 100% to ignore enemy’s shields just shreds their health fast
honestly. this skill is only useful against Guardians for the most part

Also it starts the cooldown while the skill is still active giving you "keep it piping hot" bonusses while gunzerking
"Get some" is sals true workhorse i could make OP builds easily with 0 points in moneyshot, no kill like overkill and inconceivable but to make sal work he has to gunzerk
Also another insanely good thing about "get some" which ive never seen anybody bring up bur is absolutely essential to the way i play sal is that you DONT have to fight enemies to trigger it basically anything that reacts in any way shape or form to being shot ingame will trigger it including skagpiles, plants like firemelons, barrels, gas bottles, vases and so on
That is huge when you travel a lot by rocket jumping or just use the speed boost of "bus that cant slow down"

In order for eraser to be as useful as urs is in ur builds It requires that aoe bonus on the hustler which is a real pain to farm imo money shot deputy sal build requires blue class mod which can be farmed quite easily doing Grendel the grog which is also very easy to get only hard thing being a rustler's orphan maker which could be substituted for quads and the hydra I Just think for consistency and ease money shot should be no.1

In contrary to most of these comments, I loved this list, it’s made me feels very nostalgic for when I used to test all these busted ass mechanics out through the bl franchise
Don’t click the link, it’s a bot^^
“That’s a lot of damage!”
And this is why BL1 remains my favorite in the franchise. Skills were strong, definitely OP stuff overall in that game, but at the same time, it wasn't as insane as everything else they did. Game was still a blast, still fun, still tons of replayability and everything, but felt more like an RPG and less like a meme.
No kill like overkill is huge along with money shot on Salvador.
Maybe I’m bias but I’m genuinely surprised to not see Phoenix even in the honorable mentions
It's been 1000 days exactly since Mayhem 2.0 and Fire in the Skag Den is still broken
Honestly i think gear was just afraid at nerfing moze. On launch she was mid.
@@lapisgaming6093 i played BL3 on launch and picked moze as my first character, she was NOT mid by a long shot lmao, i genuinely thought the games bosses were a joke when i popped iron bear with rockets day1
@@LFXGaming mid as in mayhem wise.
@@LFXGaming she required a lot more perfect rolls and what not. Now she doesn't need much of anything.
@@lapisgaming6093 so you didn,t know about game launch moze + Reccuring hex granade build ?
Whatev....shout out Cloud Kill.
I watched the full explanation with the graph and still have zero idea how eraser works. It needs to be a critical hit… how is that happening 2/3/4 etc times from a missile launcher?
When Bloodsplosion is in the first spot, you know it's gonna be good 😅
Love Anarchy. Not only is it extremely powerful, but it made Gaige my favourite character in BL2 (well, that and Deathtrap and her zany personality).
at 13:00 I think you mean. Truly In-Zane xD xD xD
i know you had to limit video length but no kill like overkill shouldve been an HM. It provides such ridiculous amounts of damage and is fairly reliable provided you have any mob type enemies in the arena. really put things like deputy sal into the upper echelons of damage that it really got to.
4:20 If you use the slayer of terramorphus class mod you can get 1050% gun damage.
A really good skill is Gaige's skill that lets Deathtrap refill shields. It is due to a glitch though where if you travel to a new map while Deathtrap is doing it, you get instant recharge. Amazing with amp shields like the bee.
the problem i find with that skill is it seems to be only useful when using that glitch, i find a lot of the time DT will end up refilling enemies shields and the same thing happens with his fire laser which sometimes targets you for some reason, DT's Ai isn't great and does the opposite of what its supposed to do
@@LFXGaming good thing it was never patched then.
Without watching... Gunzerker
Making this a pure damage list ignores some of the most overpowered shills ever though. Like Lilith's silent resolve, a 70% always on (effectively) damage resistance.
9:43 The game says that moneyshot does up to 80% damage/point in the skill. It actually does 96% damage/point. So at 11/5 you get 1056% damage.
Also, you need to have a magazine size of at least 12 to get the full bonus. Not 10.
is it bad i could tell whi almost every clip came from?
Ive been thinking imagine salvador with bore and bloodsposion incombination with no kill like over kill and money shot bonus
No Kill like Overkill should be no 1. It‘s a flat 500% multiplicative gum dmg increase.
Cloudkill deserves to definitely be a number 1 or 2 the fact that it will insta kill all enemies in normal mode or tvhm is very overpowered and it can even do tons of damage in uvhm, also just the entire skill of gunzerking itself is definitely number one and you cannot argue that it is the most broken over powered skill
I want to see a modded bl3 class with all of the busted skills at once skag,short Fuze,eraser and remenet all together
I feel like Aurelia's I never miss skill should be here as it could do more damage to zeros sniper ascension if used correctly
I don't know about that number 1 skill. Compared to the Amara skill that only needed a single mob to make it work for a guaranteed raid boss kill, Zane was clearly having trouble making the trick work as intended.
In the video, the boss is 1 quadrillion hp. this is 1,000,000,000,000,000 hp. He was reliably 25%'ing and 50%'ing killing it. So half of 1 quadrillion, 1/4th of quadrillion. This is INSANE damage.
Remember, the 1 quadrillion HP is modded in to limit test. Graveward HP on mayhem 10 is 500 billion. 1/4th of a quadrillion is QUITE A LOT of damage (250 trillion).
@@cybercorn5966 you can see he systematicaly waits for graveward to slam his hand and such. In this situation you got reliable insane damage. But just try in regular M11 graveward, seer en such to just kill as fast as possible. You will see that eraser is unreliable.
Imagine flak with critical ascension with a skullmasher
I’m able to one shot Seer now. Yeah Moze can melt it’s health down. But Zane can end it quicker.
Haven’t kept up with wonderlands is double knot still as broken as it once was?
To this day I am unable to get above 20 stacks in critical ascension.
