Grinder Results

[Yumeno]

I heard the grinder doesn't give you everything even if you have all the dlc... That you need to use a claptastic voyage legendary to get the full pool options. So my friend ran the campaign, got the cheat code off the boss, we duplicated it and grinding it, but we are only getting the same items we got grinding duplicated zx1s

Sorry about the thread necro, but I've also never gotten a DLC 2 legendary weapon from the grinder. I'm trying to get Absolute Zero, via DLC 2 Legendary (Longest Yard, Cheat Code), Main game legendary (Kerboom), and a purple laser weapon. I see multiple guides saying this works (need at least 1 DLC 2 legendary), but I've never gotten a single legendary from this combination. I've tried this in NVHM and now TVHM, multiple times, not a single one.

Has anyone on Steam/PC actually successfully grinded a DLC 2 legendary? Is there a problem with the PC version of the game?

Thing is, the chance for getting a Legendary using this recipe is already very low, so getting the one ou want is pretty much impossible, even with duping; and you can't even moonstone grind when using DLC Legendaries to guarantee the best result... so I'm afraid it would still be faster to farm EOS for an Absolute Zero. :(

I've used the formula (2 leg + 1 purple) to grind for a particular sniper rifle before (a Pitchfork, which I subsequently never used). The result isn't always a legendary, but the chance is high enough for me to get what I want.

For 1 DLC leg + 1 leg + 1 purple laser? Zero, nil, nada. I've never gotten any legendary from it.

It's worse than that. In NVHM & TVHM, I have never found any DLC 2 legendary gear from the vending machines, nor from grinds, nor from chests (except for MORQ). They only dropped from enemies.

I've read posts about people who found DLC 2 legendaries from vending machines before they even begun that DLC. Also people who had grinded and bought Absolute Zero from vending machines. I suspect that the PC version is broken, but works for other platforms.

I was wondering if someone did something in the community patch about this and it looks like it:

Loot and Grinder Changes

Added DLC legendaries to the Grinder
Added Rerouter and MORQ to Grinder lootpool (and world drop pool)
Added Meganade to Grinder lootpool (and world drop pool)
Added legendary COMs to Grinder lootpool (and world drop pool)
Eridian Vanquisher is now +5 instead of +4
Removed purple shields from legendary Grinder pool and fixed purple spike shields
Made Grinder give more legendaries
Moonstone have 10% chance at Launchers, 5% at Longguns, 3% at Pistols, COMs and Shields

So it does look like the PC version did not add DLC legendaries to the Grinder pool. I wish I knew this earlier...
