FL4K's robot pet is buggy like hell.

[KDA Seraphine]

It just suddenly get stuck at somewhere and stop following you for no reason.
and the most annoying part is, in the middle of battle, It could get stuck at some point and suddenly start SHOOTING GROUND under its feet instead of shooting enemies. WTF?
How could I fix this buggy piece of **** ?

[Draxuss]

Uninstall it...

There is a lot of bugs, including ones for pathfinding. Learn how to tolerate it, because might not have any other patch. I mean, every game have its inconveniences.

The only way is really just change the pets, to update it to your location. You can also use the Gamma Burst action skill to teleport the pet to a location. I made a fun build with it, and War Loader.

That has been reported since it was in beta...
You could write a bug-report to 2k/gearbox but they will not do anything - they adbandoned fixing anything a long time ago when they noticed that they were too stupid to even fix the simplest bugs.

It's so bad, making the underwhelming flak even more underwhelming to play. The dlc areas are especially bad for the pathing. I just had him use the sniper rifle since he didnt want to move anywhere to use his shotgun, or his exp mode

Warloader. Full Gamma Burst pet build (max purple/max green/rest blue), shield copy for bot purple skill, max attack skill/action skill cooldown, heal 8% on kill etc, revolter shield that gives huge shock damage buff on break (does work on bot), elemental damage artifact. Shotgun base damage is fire, also has white melee, with shield break on revolter gets shock, Gamma Burst gives radiation. Warloader also has a single shot grenade the use on their own that works the same as Mesmer (this is the grenade I use) turning an enemy to your side.

Learn to use the "rockets" from attack skill (more like RPGs, they arc and miss, but do millions on hit) and use Gamma Burst for placement. Enjoy the occasional 100M+ damage crit. I'm doing Mayhem 11 with it and it's the best FL4K build I've played - very glad I dropped my Big Game Hunter Skill focused one after 200+ hours and only wish I had found it sooner (I make my own, this is not a copy from someone's YT video or a guide). With the Guardian skill Green/Orange tree buffs you hit even harder (+5% per elemental effect type, 2% per hit, exploding corpses).

Yes it's buggy. Sometimes he gets one shot killed out of nowhere, even with the turtle shell skill, and immediately goes in to suicide bomber mode. But, my Gamma Burst CD is low and can resummon or just run away for respawn (it says -50% pet respawn timer but Gearbox can't math). It stomps everything. I have done Maliwan Takedown on MH11, I did all of the Jackpot on MH11, I finally finished the Overseer for the podcast DLC on MH11 (LONG fight), and the western DLC entirely on MH11. I'm doing the Krieg DLC right now, the only one I haven't finished. I can do all of the Trials on MH11.

The only thing I haven't finished related to those is the Guardian Takedown on Minos because it will randomly kill me sometimes and force a respawn that forfeits the mission - but the bot is still standing. It's VERY tanky with the right build and supporting gear, it scales with MH level and many of your things apply to it. Warloader is by far the best pet and there are things in the purple tree that do not work on non-mechs.

I'm ashamed to admit I just learned about the timed boosters from Tannis's Science Game or whatever with in the last day. Now I hit even harder and get more XP.

EDIT: I do all of this on a 12+ year old desktop that gets 20 FPS at best (not joking). Warloader does all the heavy lifting.
