Items That Effect Co-Op Play
Technically any items can be used in co-op as each item can be used for its advantages disadvantages and the amounts of fun you can have while doing so.

But i'm going to tell you of an item that can have disadvantages such as the Love Thumper

This little item can damage your teammates if you melee them which can make it very difficult to be in a co-op game with this item as it makes you the most annoying person or if you put it on, on purpose for whatever reason. Or if you just want to be a troll.

Now the next 2 items are basically the same thing. The only difference being that one is a gun and the other one is a shield and they add 10% to the fight for your life for every time someone has either of these two items equipped. Which can make getting your teammates back up and into the frait alot easier if your busy with being surrounded with enemies and all.


Skills That Effect Co-Op Play
Axton The Commando- Axton has skills that are more for helping himself more than his teammates, but his turret can be used to distract enemies and take the fire for your teammates if they're in a tough situation and he also has his Phalax shield which allows for his turret to take more damage if ever deployed and can be useful for getting away, finding health and reviving a co-op partner if you just want something to distract them long enough.

Maya The Siren- Now Maya in general is a very supportive class, but can survive on her own. She has skill's which are very good for co-op like Res which can revive your teammates with your phaselock skill which charges very fast.

Maya also has skills that can make you become the nurse of the team, with skills such as restoration and sweet release which allow you to become the most unlicensed doctor you have ever become as restoration allows you to heal your targets for up to 30% of the attack damage per level and sweet release allows you to heal you targets with life orbs that heal your teammates up to 15% if their health is low if you've killed them in phaselock.


Salvador The Gunzerker- Now in co-op Salvador is more like the tank of the group in which he provides both offesively and defensively and just being a bullet hole for everyone to put their guns into. He has skills such as Hard To Kill and I'm The Juggernaut in Hard To Kill you gain up to 20% maximum health and 0.5% regeneration. In I'm The Juggernaut it gives you up to 20% damage reduction for killing an enemy.

Zero The Assassin- Zero has skills that can take out specific enemies and allows for his teammates to focus on everything else while he's focusing more on the deadly threats. Such as death mark as it allows for Zero to mark a target for 8 seconds when he would melee them and they will take 20% more damage from additional sources.

Gaige The Mechromancer- Gaige is more solo than anyone else, because she already has a co-op partner named deathtrap which can help her and she has anarchy which is very solo Gaige, but she has a skill called Buck Up which allows her deathtrap to restore allies shields by 30%, but this one is sort of glitchy as it makes Deathtrap restore shields while in fight for your life mode, sometimes restores enemy shields and even tries to restore your shield while having the rough rider on.

Krieg The Psycho- Krieg is sort of like salvador in the sense that he has more of a melee based playstyle and more suicidal skills that can help your teammates alot like Redeem the soul which makes you able to revive teammates instantly, but you down yourself and gives you +50% fight for your life time.Krieg also has a skill called fuel the rampage which makes your cooldown go alot faster as you take more damge, but it makes you susceptible to friendly fire, up to 100% faster cooldown rate and additional 20% from health damage.



Teamwork Makes The Dreamwork.
Now for this part of the guide we're going to be talking about which characters can help out each other and the synergy they can have with one another.


Axton and Salvador A.K.A the Little Tank Engines- Axton and Salvador are like two tanks one is a mobile tank while the other is a small tank that lets him take the damage for him while also providing giant guns on the top of him, Axton can provide support for Salvador if he's hurt with his Phalax Shield and Salvador can just be a tank with his body as each person can heal themselves and them being the tanks that they are, they're better for closer range and able to keep each other alive through alot of tanking( notice i'm mostly saying they can just take alot of damage and provide distractions from big enemies.)

Axton and Maya A.K.A The SS.TITANIC- Axton and Maya are a good combo as Maya is the nurse who can provide slag and healing with her healing tree ( I like to call it a co-op only tree but whatever) and Axton can provide mostly to take out the mob of enemies that maya has slagged for faster mobbing and a faster way of getting through the game as it is.

Axton and Zero A.K.A The Mob Slobs- Axton and Zero are a very good combo if you want to be mostly a mob team that can take down enemies and bosses really easily as axton has an ability that gives his turret two guns and gives them both the ability to slag, while Zero has the ability to focus on one enemy such as a badass and take him down with the slightest of ease.

Axton and Gaige A.K.A The new age of technology- Now I know what you're thinking, but Dr.Piss Gaige and Axton are bascially the same character as they both have machines that can provide distractions and can do some of the work for them. Well.... I'd have to say you're kinda right on this (for once) but they also aren't as each character dosen't really have skills to help each other they are probably the best for controlled mobing as each character can provide distractions and give each of their machines a new killing tool.exe to play with.

Axton and Krieg A.K.A The Exploding Orgasm- Now these two are mostly classes that have alot of explosions and skills that make them do more damage with explosions as axton has skills that give him more grenades more rockets, more explosions (Mr.Torgue would be proud to have axton as his son.) While krieg has skills such as light the fuse and bloodsplosion to give him more explosions from farther away.

Maya Team Combo's Coming Soon.

Thank you everyone for adding in things I missed. I'll edit them in as soon as I can.

Good guide, but you should have included team bonuses from the legendary class mods. Salvador's Legendary Hoarder class mod gives everyone 3.4 bullet regeneration, and some of Maya's legendary class mods give the team health regeneration. There is also the seraph shield called the Hoplite which decreases movement by 10% for each person with one equipped.

Sheriff's Badge? More FFYL for each user I believe.

You forgot Krieg's skill that makes him accesible to Friendly Fire

I'm also taking criticism, things I messed, things that could use a longer explanation for,etc will all be taken down in the comments to make this a better guide.
