Bunker NOT dropping the sham

[Demo Dan]

I´ve killed bunker way too many times for him not to drop the sham.
I´ve gotten 4 b itches but not a single sham, what is the droprate anyways.
Well im sick of farming him so if anyone has a spare one or someone with zer0 can help me out that´d be nice

Keep farming. That's how this goes. The sham isn't that great of a shield anyway. It's situationally limited.

i need the sham to pair up with the logans gun. Unlimited rocket launcher ammo.
i started farming at lvl 52, now im lvl 68

The game offers so much more than laucher-centered strategies. This isn't Quake. Variety and depth characterize other playstyles. Besideds, best to use what gear drops for you since you are still levelling.

The RNG is streaky. Good Shams are pretty rare, but run-of-the-mill 80%ish Shams aren't that rare (in my personal experience). Keep trying.

You want rare? Try farming for Elemental B!tches.

Damn, sounds shamfleet... Not be that coward, and use something better, like Antagonist. Like ~30% absorb, bit better capacity and Slag homing balls to enemies... That's pretty good.

Gah. I always seem to get non-elemental. Last serious farming run - 5 Rightsizing non-elemental, 2 Corporate corrosives. 3 Shams. 78%, 83% and 88%.
That was close to 500 runs spread over a couple of days.
I think the Mercenary Day train might be an alternative idea to BNK-3R. Certainly way more loot. The Sham is in the World loot pool after all.

A 25% absorb shield will do for rocket regen, even for rocket jumping.
Besides regen, the only non-shamfleet uses it has are in bloodshot stronghold/dam, lynchwood and southpaw. You know, the places you never really visit anyway.
Droprate should be... 1/33

<sigh> Doesn't that figure.

I've got a Crossive and a Shock B!tch that are both about 3 or 4 levels behind where I am now, and I've yet to see a replacement for either.

I get plain one after plain one, I get shams, I get Logan's Guns, I get all kinds of stuff, but no more elemental B!tches.

Oh well, c'est la vie.

but at the same time, it's also the cheapest way to gain rocket ammo (even when one isn't ShamFleeting)

Dan don’t you just love buying a game request help on the game forum and a bunch of special people tell you how to play and not to play the game YOU paid for!/? I have a level 70 Sham you are welcome to.

But, what's your Badass Rank?

But, getting back on point, it would be nice if there were more strong co op parnters playing the game. People who could raise one's game, surprise and teach, instead of being a burden, a liability, a bore to play with. Someone who is looking to shamfleet has given up on becoming a good player, is obnoxious in co op, and on top of that, OP is unwilling, NOT UNABLE, to farm a sham.

I have farmed many shams, and everything else I use. Some of it is maddeningly difficult or time-consuming to acquire legitimately. I do not expect of others what I have not already done myself.

I'm grateful for the small group of excellent players I can call upon for some co op fun in an environment where we challenge each other, and each try to minimize time spent by teammates ressurecting us, instead of dealing all-important DPS. Someone who has chosen a lowest common denominator playstyle, and then is unwilling to spend the time to acquire the gear needed for their training wheels approach would be an horrible person to play with, depending on others to carry them through, rather than intending to strengthen the team and get above the mere survival threshold to where synergy and fun happens.

Besides, any character can kill Bunker quickly with the right gear. I used to wax him in one to two clips as Axton with the right kit. OP did not ask how to do it faster, so though there are many here who can farm Bunker very quickly, he was not toid. how. As is so often the case, it came to, "I give up do it for me/give me/play for me." I suspect that is how you got past the majority of the game.
