Which Character is best for Controller
Don't ask me how I got into this situation, but Im currently only allowed to use my keyboard to start Borderlands 3, so I need to know which Chatacter is best for Controller Gameplay

You may find them equally easy, but that is not everybody. The OP is looking for which one is best for controller. If you find them so close, perhaps you can offer pros and cons to each that could help the OP.

But I agree the answer of "They all are" (best) is not a helpful answer at all. Either one is better than the others, or they each have pros and cons to what might make them the best for the OP.

I would use FL4K cause he has companion pets that will help you in battle, might make it a little easier since I know controller doesn't have a fast response like keyboard/mouse does

Amara's the answer to this.

You can use Phasegrasp to hold enemies in place for a few seconds, and even on higher difficulties, you can use the Phasegrasp variant Ties that Bind to clear out entire rooms of enemies simultaneously and the vast majority of them would be held still while you do it. Just get a Phasezerker class mod for maximum effect. You could run this all the way from level 1 to 57 and then tackle the hardest challenges using it with few changes, honestly.

I strongly recommend a siren if the reason you're playing with controller is due to a motor/mobility issue. Enemies held in place is probably the best you'll get, and she scales super well into Mayhem 10 content.

it takes time for a controller to line up for the phasegrasp though and could be missed easily as the enemy moves

Because they are. I use all of them with a controller on PC.

Quit being rude also. Reported.

I think the weapons that you use will affect your performance with a controller more than the character that you play.

Ironically, more rude than the post that you were replying to...

Ironbear with lock on/manual missles or burst grenade launcher. Can even swap class mod to drop it as a sentry for a minute and do manual shooting on the ground.

I've got both Amara and Moze to 57 using controller, Zane and Fl4k at 15, haven't used a sniper with any of them though but found the game to be quite easy, it's not pvp so it's more forgiving, it really depends how good you are with a controller though
