Hey guys! Back with another Borderlands 2 countdown video and today, I figured I would go over some of what I think are among the best Character Skills in Borderlands 2. Because certain skills got updated on October 29th, 2015's patch for Borderlands 2, I figured it
would be a good idea to go ahead and revisit some of the skills.
As always, if you liked this video, feel free to leave a like and let me know what you think! - Hry
I love that sal guy he seems very well balanced and challenging to play
Lan Niban ha
Haha
Hahaha
Hahahaha
hahahahaha
11:31 Actually the way that Krieg celebrates every kill. Teabag absolutely nothing and then hit yourself in the face. Perfect.
and dont forget to 12%
My teammate plays psycho, he picks me with redeem the soul and i res him right after withmy maya

I absolutely agree with Cloud Kill. If you're playing Cataclysm Maya and you don't take Cloud Kill, you're doing it wrong.
Well, I'm usually single player and because of that, you simply can't put out enough damage, especially on UVHM unless ur on the Cataclysm tree, if ur playing Maya. And cloud kill is absolutely OP, as well as ruin.

As apposed to emptying your full flip by dropping the bullets
Zer0:**kills BNKR in one shot because of b0re**
BNKR:”wait, that’s illegal”
salvador : 'o'
Yeah only In high level
junko, what are you doing here?
Is it still bad that *it still fucking works*
@@tempest5994 nope you can do it the second you get bore so like level 11-15

In my opinion Kriegs release the beast skill is one of the best skills especially if you specialized him for mainly melee damage to insta kill most enemy’s not including bosses and you get his ability back instantly
best skill in the game imo
He’s unstoppable when fully specced with Hellborn and Mania. Also, I use Healer/Cataclysm skill trees on Maya, and I basically can’t die.
@@glassofwater281I'm new at Boderland 2 and I start whit maya .what is the best for her? I'm just lvl22 tho. Thanks
Ninjas-Roocks- PR you should try the Cataclysm tree first, then when you’ve reached the bottom of it, start putting points in the Harmony (healer) tree. Cataclysm is amazing for elemental damage.
@@glassofwater281 well I guess I make a big mistake. I was adding point to all three but the one in the left its pretty full (the Healer I guess). ama real noob at this lol thanks tho ....
Grit is beatiful. I once went for something like 10 minutes griting every hit. I am a lucky man.
Morgoth PL i did that too! Also I had 10/5 points in able which also helped. Grit and able go together do well
John O'Neill Oh yes they do. FeelsGood.
Morgoth PL also max out the first two skills on the survival skill tree and you pretty much become a tank
@RageLord 138 Did someone hurt you when you were a child?
@RageLord 138 I never said he was the best or something. I just said Grit as a skill is amazing. Yes, his proficiency is with AR's, but that's not the only way to play him. Tediore build or turret build are also a thing. And the fact that he isn't broken like Sal or Gaige makes him more fun to play.
"If you're looking for a must-have skill for Krieg, it's Bloodsplosion."
D-
Did you forget about Release the Beast?
Bloodsplosion is so much better, you can clear whole areas with one explosive fastball grenade or one-shot Pyro Pete for easy seraph crystal farm. A half decent bloodsplosion chain will easily hit the damage cap of 999 million.
A must have for Krieg is definitely Blood Bath.
Blood Bath is one of the most retarded skills in the game.
I alwayse just wait for release the beast
Commanbo'z NUKE
Impossible to die with Release the beast, it’s beautiful
A team of mania kriegs can be unstoppable. Constant release the beast and redeem the soul and lighting the fuse
Krieg has a skill, i forgot what its called, but its the final skill in his mania tree. it turns you into a badass if you use buzz axe rampage under a third of your health, refills your health, and then refills you rampage meter when you end the rampage
i think its called release the beast
Knew Res would be on here, being support Maya is awesome :D
Maya’s Cloud Kill is #1. Only Tier 3. Every new and veteran player can use it equally well. Fits any strategy. Simple, but powerful. Literally takes no thought to use. Works every time it should. Can’t lose it.
You forgot the downside though. You have to use Maya

Maya's Res is like Inspire for Payday 2 . You can Revive team mates from down position with in few meters
I just bought both Borderlands GOTY editions.I really enjoy the videos you put out.
ashdoglsu what system? If your playing on ps4 add halfdemon43
ashdoglsu I strongly recommend looking up the greatest borderlands CZcamsrs to ever live..Yoteslsya RIP YOTE

It feels so nostalgic going back and watching these vids
2:00 "while BLAEuWE playing CoOp"
Damn, that was a beautiful solo on Terramorphous at the end there! I wish I could have seen the rest of it!
For me the best is Zer0's Many Must Fall, since by the time you get it you will already have your dash, so you can just go inviz, dash here and there and kill like 30 foes in a flash, with style.
It depends your build.
If you're Legendary Ninja, Death Blossom, Execute, Many Must Fall and Bore are his best skills (Bore cause you see critical hits of the ennemy and you can crit the ennemy when you melee).
If you're Sniper, Critical Ascension, Bore and Death Blossom are his best skills
etc
Nice one thanks puma!
My brother and I got a ton of traction from Redeem the Soul + Res. We had it down to a science. If I went down, he'd revive me, then I'd Res him, which would put him in the right threshold for Release the Beast. We were virtually unstoppable.
Oh shit that sounds amazing. I guess healer and tank is a winning combination everywhere. Do you also use maya's "shoot your allies to heal them" or krieg's "get shot by your allies and get hurt"? Mostly because if you do i wanted to ask what happens when the two interact. Nothing? Healing or damage depending on the sum of the percentages? Maya's overrides krieg's?
Well usually use the Maya one, and sometimes the Krieg one. I don't remember if Maya's healing is enough to completely override the friendly fire.
@@mbrsart ah cool. I mean fuel the rampage only lets krieg take 50% damage (might be less at higher levels) but i don't remember if maya's heals more than that so maybe i'll see if someone online tested it.
Cloud kill
Chain reaction
Bloodsplosion
Bore
Many must fall
No kill like overkill
Res
Anarchy
Grit
Money shot
Zero's follow through skill is definitely up there, because the bonus speed and damage is really good. Especially the speed, everybody loves having speed in games.
Krieg's unleash the beast skill literally saves you from dying and makes you twice as tough with double melee damage and a 50% damage resistance boost I say go for it it helps also get the thrill of the kill because who doesn't want there overkill damage to come back to you as health
Also krieg can bypass hyperius 's little shield because it doesn't reduce melee damage for some reason 😑
Thanks Puma!
You are the best CZcamsr I am subbed and have notifications turned on
Coming back to this after years, loved part 1 but part 2 didn’t have a field of view slider on switch and it was making me ill. Saw they finally added one. My only other gripe is that I liked the miniature images of the guns in part 1 where u could somewhat tell what parts were there by aiming at it on the ground without reading the specs and all that. Tbf they did add the 3D turntable view tho which is awesome so I’ll get used to it. Very helpful vids thx.
Nice list, great skills indeed.
Bloodsplosion is the funnest skill i think.
I would say gaiges final skill in the bff tree line skill combined with a love thumper or hide of teramorphis is pretty op it makes deathtrap oneshot just about any enemy (besides raid bosses) especialy usefulful going through the raid on digistruct peak as he can do insane damage to scorch (I think) and the assassins
Hey puma can you please do another top ten best replacement gun mods for borderlands 2, you could even make it a series but im looking for some new guns and i would like an external view on the subject anyway keep up the good vids!!
Devereux Gaming He already did that but just a different title. Or you could just download community patch.
I love Maya's cloud kill skill after it's was patched and her ruin skill there really useful in uvhm 😄
the thing about redeem the soul is if you combine it with his fight for your life replacement, light the fuse, you can run in, rez a downed team mate, then both run to cover so they can revive you safely
One of my best RPG designs ever! Love these games!
Lytbringr “RPG” you mean?
Release the beast for Krieg.
I'm so pumped for you when borderlands 3 comes out lol
watching him play zer0 in any of his videos hurts me so much
Everyone: Gaige's anarchy is the best!
Me, a fan of both sniping and Gaige: am I a joke to you?
You can effectively snipe with anarchy up to about 90 stacks. Then you discord down a bit and keep going. 90 stacks is over 150% more damage. Hell When I'm building stacks as Gaige, I primarily use a sniper to do so.
I know it may not be the best, but I love almost all of Krieg's Hellborn tree (except hellfire halitosis), It is just fun to be shooting someone with a good touch, with a flame of the firehawk on, and shooting homing balls of fire from your face
Cooking up trouble, life saver!
I wanna ask something. Consedering ur using the Community Patch, i think it would be a fun idea to make a sort of "Things u can do with the C.Patch" videos. If u think soo to i would suggest using gaige, and stacking at least 300 anarchy. Than using the flakker ahab combo.(I kill like 30 voracidous in under a hour, without needing to change gear mid shot , its really fun)
Those 1-hit kills on bosses are insane.
I figure you ought to include gaiges anarchy ability given how insane the damage boosts can get.
But with redeem the soul when playing with a Maya if you pick her up and she than revives you it puts you into release the beast threshold which in my opinion is the best combo in terms if use and strength
Who else misses vulgar puma??
Ali it felt annoying and forced to me... glad he made the change.
The Ticktockman well it’s better than his current videos with really bad music in it
what a boatload of ASS
IKR. Puma, if you read this^ please at least make a vulgar varriant?
Ali me
You should totally make videos of you playing/getting all the weapons in The Hunt 2018
ApocNewt Do you know WHEN the loot hunt 2018 is gonna be?
Axtons nukes! Because you can pick up the turrets and get the time saved off the cool down , you can spam them. I pair it with 2x turrets , long bow, and the sticky perk giving me quick high damage explosives anywhere i want them. Then pick one up as fast as possible and toss them out again. Not to mention 2 extra cover points , 2 extra guns in play, and the enemies target the turrets. so if you're in a pinch and need a quick Escape, just drop 2 nukes with coverfire . Its an expensive build because both nukes ans 2x turrets are both last in their trees but you gotta put those points somewhere anyway so its the build i go for.
halfdemon43 nuke is a joke
halfdemon43 I do similar, and use slag before deploying them
If you play Axton you are garbage
I always do binder build.. love dat
crowd control
I guessed all of them except for Death Blossom/Marked For Death. I was expecting to see either Release The Beast or Redeem The Soul as well.
I agree with the list entirely! BL2 is still so lovely to play around and some of the reworked skills are really cool to mess around with still. Farm on!
Actualy i think metal storm is amazing with low fire rate weapons or even fast firing weapons
Killing Blow/Execute has saved me many times. No matter what build I always try to include those two.
Able is a very overpowering skill if you also put points into grit. Not only do you get a % of ignoring death but when the grit gives you back half your health you can just injure your enemies to regain more health to restore it again. I found able had been awesome for when I'm running away and the stalkers or skags are attacking me and my health is low. Just turn around and shoot em lol
Anarchy is broken af.
As a pure Gaige player forever, Anarchy is hands down the best skill you can get because despite the accuracy loss for damage, you can just spam a shotgun against an enemy and they’ll die in just a few short moments.
Can you do a video on all the talking weapons and shields? Maybe top 10 best talking gear?
Slag plus death mark + a salv = death at all levels
"nut neutrality"
Money shot is soooooo good with the Butcher shotguns
Great content! I've just been gifted this on steam and now it really got me hahaha great work on those Top10's, learning a lottt. A hug from Valparaíso, Chile. PD: Are you in love with Mary Jane? *thinkemoji*
Jugamos ? xd
This video made me search up the money shot skill but I forgot to write borderlands 2 beside it and guess the results
I called it, I knew money shot was gonna be #1. One of my favorite skills too. 😊
Maya's kinetic reflection is rediculous in mobbing, if you have a perfect antagonist, you are a walking deflector shield.
For legendary Grenadier Acton, do or die with a explosive fastball is a instant save.
I used to play mostly zero but he is frustrating at high levels, Maya and Axton are well designed characters. Axton without any one op skill remains a very easy character to play.
Kriegs silence the voices and release the beast are totes OP for a melee build
Yes Puma is back #VinylicPumaGaming
Either money shot or bore gonna be number one in calling it from now
I caught that lay waste pun
Hey VinylicPuma, please make a video about leveling to 72. I'm a BL vet but new to BL2 and want to level my Maya to 72 and have some fun. I have watched pretty much all your BL and BL2 videos and liked all of them. You pretty much just have content regarding which character is fun, end game gear, specific gear and the different types of missions. I don't see much regarding the walk to 72, specific to Badass ranks (you have one on how it can be improved though) and how one should level to get the most out of it or to do it fastest. I am currently on 54 and have finished the main story 3 times. I have played all the dlc at least once and pretty much just want to get to 72 and then to farm end game gear. I know from my first few playthroughs (on PS4) that I should save my badass ranks until I know what I'm going for but as I am still quite far from 72, I still don't have a solid idea on what to do. My friends are all 72 and just motivate to grind through the main story until you are close enough to just grind skags in arid nexus. Is it really this simple and grueling? Please show us how YOU managed to grind your characters to 72.
My favorite is axton because of his turret you can distract your enemies to run away
I think in Maya and in Axton is the corrosive and the double sabre turret. Because in Maya if you phaselock them they just corrode in the phase lock and in Axton it can do many damage than a one turret and I love his teleport turret and Mayas fire skill.
And in Gaiges and Krieg is anarchy and bloodsplosion. Because from Gaige she can shoot barrels with a shotgun so her anarchy gets high and much damage and from Kriegs its like OP because if Kriegs get hit if he have bloodsplosion it just kills people fast so this is my favorite skills.
Got to do worst skills update now
Bloodsplosion with a fireball grenade with explosion element you can break a whole room of enemies seconds
Also of note on "Critical Ascension".... ladders..... god damn freakin ladders >:(
stacks gone?
Yep, fall right out the bottom of your screen they bleed so fast.
Really annoys me a bit how the skill works. In my opinion they should rework it so the only way to insta-lose all your stacks is dying.
Well I only really main zero as I like the sniping and melee thing he hasand if your low on health you can run easier
3:20 no only does grit keep you from going down but it also gives you health
Quirky Mender09 half of your health. Use able with that skill and you can get out of 90% of the dangerous situations you encounter(well I personally found out)
Besides bloodsplosion I like release the best the best along side of redeem the soul I'm a level 61 krieg
Blood splosion is a great skill, but I don't think I can ever play Krieg without the release the beast skill.
Release the beast is pretty OP. Get under 33% HP, activate action skill, kill everyone, gets fully charged instantly.
Is this just a re-uploaded video? FYI still love his content if it is. Keep doing what your doing man 🤗
Anybody still playing BL2 on Xb1??
Dylan Hawley i still play on xbox 360
Dylan Hawley yea
Dylan Hawley pd4 master race
Yea
Dylan Hawley I do
Would love a list for all of borderlands
My top 10
1. Money shot
2. Bore
3. Bloodsplosion
4. Pain is power
5. Blood bath
6. Elemental empathy
7. Sexual tyronnosaurus
8. No kill like overkill
9. Cloud kill
10. Fleet
Use no kill like overkill with the amp shield glitch for completely broken damage
'Gearbeox' nice job vpg
hey puma, can you do some more borderlands 1 videos? maybe some farming routs, glitches/exploits, best bosses, best character choice/character builds, best skills. stuff like that
a playthrough would b cool too
Unpopular opinion having a Maya and Krieg with Res and Release the Beast, Redeem the Soul and Light the Fuse (Not needed but helps) is insanely fun and good but not great. You can constantly pop in and out of Being alive and down for only a few seconds each time while being able to Release the Beast quite often. It was an old combo I did and it felt quite good to me obviously not the best or anything like that but still.
I prefer Preparation for Axton over Grit. You get it sooner and the best class mod for Axton pumps it up nicely.
LVL 71 Salvador, farming xp for LVL 72, doing forest in dragon keep and savage Lee, any other xp farming ways with handsome collection
you can farm Abomindable Tinder Snowflake with that glitch where if you hide behind the elevator and Beehawk him
@VinylicPumaGaming Could you show me your melee build for zero?
Who else couldn't stop laughing at nut neutrality
Wow there are a lot of people who want release the beast here, I like this
My favorite skill is with the psycho light the fuse
Heyy puma I totally agree with every skill u said I aunestly base my may and gaige and they are sooooooooooooooo sick could u make a video for the best raid bosses for farming plzzzzzz
Hey a great combo is nuke,long bow,and Gemini
Pimpernel is ultimately your favorite word
Have you made a video on your load outs and inventories?
Release The Beast should've been on this list. Instead of being punished for talking damage, you'll be rewarded with a health refill, a massive bonus to melee damage, and at the end your Buzzaxe Rampage is ready for another go. Also, you'll get all your health back for killing an enemy.
I love bore Because you can use it to easily kill hyperius and bunker
Good list!
I would nominate Maya's Wrek for an honorable mention. It is only a tier 2 skill, so you get it early, and it boosts fire rate and gun damage while phaselock is active. Add in a cat class mod to boost it to 10/5 and a relic to boost cooldown, and you can boost your damage output considerably.
