Personaly i have a problem with beam weapons not being recognized as lasers i can grind any combination of blaster, railgun and splitter but if theres a beam weapon in the mix it wont let me grind, seems only happen with green level lasers

Because you have to grind legendary shield + legendary shield + legendary shield = legendary shield via recent patch. But, they were nice enough not to require a moonstone grind.

That's a lotta alt + F4ing.

Set your save data to read only and you can save and quit. Once you get what you want alt + tab out and uncheck save only (so you actually save again).

This means you dont have to launch the game every bloody time.

For me I still have to; for some reason, if I do it the way you describe it will still save until I quit and only then will it load the unmodified save data. No idea why, but that's how it goes.

It would be too easy to get legendaries...
Also the grinder is obviously only for weapons if you've actually looked at it

You need to change character to refresh your characters state. Easiest way to do this is NEW GAME then exit and select your character again (added bonus of getting your veteran rewards again).:vault:

Can't grind blue rarity either. Purple, sure, but not blue.

Sorry, forgot to mention that one little step. (personally I re-select the characters). It should be mentioned though that you will only keep the bonus reward if you revert the read only status of your save file.

On another side note: the true benefit of this is farming one time bosses without alt + f4ing each kill.
