too easy?
So I have a question, are bosses supposed to die in less than 10 seconds, the Moment I get into the mech Im hitting stuff for like 22k damage per shot, Im using the explosive rounds for the minigun tho, or is Moze mech just that broken?

like seriously, I just rescue Tanis and the boss laser like 4 seconds, jesus christ.

Yeah if you get lucky with some good weapons early on things start to snowball in your favor.
But you can increase difficulty later on with the challenges and then it can quickly turn every gunfight into a battle for survival.
So you have the option to customize difficulty later on.

When you finish the campaign and have the ability to increase the maximum difficulty of the game, and play a little on that difficulty, I hope you keep thinking about how easy it was to play on normal difficulty.
Good luck .

BL3 was made too easy. Guess too many kids complained that they had to earn their victories. So this is the participation award version of the series.

But after first playthrough you can up the difficulty appropriately and have an actual challenge.

Even with legendaries the game is a cake walk with the vault hunters, movement etc. Kinda why most stuck with mayhem 10 once unlocked.

It entirely depends on how much you prepare before you go in. If you want more of a challenge then don't do all the side missions, so your level is lower.

BL3 is way too easy - way easier than the other BL-games on normal-mode. And sadly that never really changes.
Once you finish the story you can activate Mayhem-mode 1-11 - that sadly does not make the enemies any hard but only turns them into bullet-sponges and adds random environmental-effects. And those effects are basically the only thing really dangerous (but in general just really annoying).

Also you took Moze - compared to BL2 she is a Sal on steroids with just how unbelievable inbalanced strong she is.

Nothing about Borderlands has ever been hard. The entire franchise is ez mode for babies until you get to endgame then it's just scaled healthbars.

There has never been any sort of throughline of difficulty in borderlands sorry if the older games were hard for you.. you were just bad at games then.

This, i went back and played BL2 and played BL1 and those games were not as hard as i remember them being. These games have constant speedruns done on max difficulty/level and they get done every time. Game isnt hard, just a fun looter shooter, get over yourselves.

To answer OP's question, yes bosses are easy with right guns, once you get to endgame look up god rolls of the best weapons, farm them, takes guns go do a hard/high hp boss(can look those up as well) in the mayhem lvls and enjoy watching your hard grinding for guns melt the multi million hp boss, have fun!

P.S. watch some build vids on YT if you havent already for Moze, glhf

First playthrough on the earlier games before any perks earned will take a while as you'll experience many deaths. BL3 first run was pretty much a speed run.

So difficulty in BL3 was lowered compared to the prior installments. Baseline you should earn your wins, not be given a participation award. Those that want to push themselves more go for special challenges.

The current culture wants everything spoon fed to them because they think anything else is not fair.

So many exploits back in the day that made everything die very quick, it got boring as no one really felt the need to party up and tackle hard bosses or anything.

Borderlands 3 is pretty easy. Even at mayhem 11, all you need is a decent weapon and you can already start doing work on the mobbing field, there aren't many enemies that can tank bullets for very long. A fully optimised build and gear is far less required that in BL2 in endgame for exemple. You can make do with unperfect weapons, gear, and a half decent build and you can pretty much steamroll the entire content.

? You need an alot more adjusted build just to kill trashmobs at higher MH levels than in BL2. Or you play Moze.

No you don't. We already went over this and I literally recorded a video of me wrecking stuff up at Mayhem 11 with a lvl 36 Amara with nothing but a random Crit. That's something that is simply impossible to do in BL2 at OP10. Want me to post the video again and show yet again how much of a bozo you are ?

That isn't max level endgame via true raid take down, Not even sure how you even got Mayhem 11 since you'll be at least close to level 50 by end game plus that's 11 not 10 with all the modifiers. As for OP10 well that is also end game content via max level. For further context Crit is one of the few non-legendaries that gets good scaling compared to most in its rarity plus certain skills have insane mayhem scaling. Including Amara who can focus purely on melee.
