Mechromancer Loadout
Currently I'm running a lvl 57 Mechromancer through UVHM solo, with some mild difficulties. I've been able to farm up some legendaries so far due to some help from friends, but I was wondering what you guys think I should have in the way of gear for when I hit higher levels. I'm trying to figure out a way around the solo eiling, if you know what I mean. I'll link my build and the gear I'm using below. Thanks for reading this, and I look forward to reading your comments. :steamhappy:

For my build I've been trying to focus around the passive of the Black Hole without losing survivability or damage.
The Blood of Terramorphous I find works really well with Cooking Up Trouble.
I really like the Maggie for building stacks when I'm in a party, but I find it isn't a great choice when solo.
I've also ignored the middle tree, even though my Slayer of Terramorphous class mod utalizes several of the perks in it. I tried splitting into all three trees for a while, but it was a horrible build.

My Gear:

Two Fer Maggie
Floated Hornet
Shock Conference Call
Skirmish Plasma Caster
Parataxis Norfleet (slag)
Grounded Black Hole
Slayer of Terramorphous Class Mod
Sticky Homing Shock Singularity
Blood of Terramorphous Relic

You should try a combo of ordered chaos and little big trouble. It's actually pretty powerful. I run it on my op8 Gaige.

I'll give it a try. I'm more or less trying to figure out what I should farm or find gear wise :/

type3 fibber + bee shield with bss skill is awesome against mobs the hail is good (especially against badassarus and the chulain is good with gaige

I see you don't have any points into Close Enough in BFF tree. That's a must if you want to use Anarchy, espeically when you get up to 400 stacks. Using Type3 Fibber + Bee is the gear that deals the heaviest damage.

With Claws? Not worth the points to get there.

Try this build. I have not allocated all the skill points so you can put them into Blood Soaked Shields if you want to. I don't like that skill much because I prefer fast shields. DeathTrap is more powerful, you have Close Enough (which is Essential to an Anarchy Gaige)
Made of Sterner Stuff is very expensive in points for what you get.

That works well with the Legendary Mechromancer. The Slayer of Terra mod, while it lets you get to 600 stacks, is pretty crap otherwise.

For guns, the Type 3 barrel (ricochet) Fibber is simply made for Gaige.

I understand your point on the digiclaws, however the particular pathing you've chosen doesn't really fir my playstyle. I'll do some fiddling with my build because now that you mention it, the claws aren't really worth it.

i am working on my gaige... i will run her best wepons only... u need redundant richoshet fiber with hyperion grip that is very important..exactly to be that fiber ....low lvl logan gun to restore ammo sham shield is needed...bee shield pre stacking ... then wen u reach 400 stacks switch to antagonist.. cz u dont wish to die with 400 stacks...for second wind.. shock norfleet...nades.. chain lightning. magic missle.4x.. and quesar...rest is all up to u...shotguns are very good on her like jolly roger asault 20xpelts cz have fixed pattern of peletts..and on uvhm u must have grog

claws are not worth it cz once u get grog and chain lightining u will fully restore hp without risk... with claws u must get close in face to enemy and on op lvl they hit very hard...focus on deathtrap and anarchy that is most effective gaige...how u spec will have big impact on harder levels

Thanks for the comments guys. I'm going to do some farming today for the items you've suggested. This is my new skill build and I'm able to solo a lot better with it.

Close Enough.

Really. Do not skip this one.

Take them out of Made of Sterner Stuff and put them in Close Enough.

Seriously.

Alrighty. Due to the concensus of several, I've respecced my tree yet again, and I've gone and farmed a few items including the Fibber and the Gentle Blockhead. Soloing has been quite a bit better, even though I still need to go farm Terramorphous for a Hide. I'll link the build below, but I was curious if anybody's noticed a couple bugs that I've encountered so far using this build:
A: Deathtrap some times restores the shields of an enemy instead of mine because I have full shields
B: Some times the ricocheting bullets from the Fibber will hit me and put me into last stand (I've lost thousands of stacks to this so far and rage quit the game a few times as well)

Anyways, I'd like to thank you all again for taking the time to read and comment on this. Below is my current skill point build as I'm lvl 61.

I'd recommend skipping the skill that makes deathtrap restore shields, fancy mathemathics+unstoppable force+blood soaked shields does the job pretty darn well. Plus, if you're ever going to play with someone else, like help others out, that skill can sometimes be more of a hinderance than helpful.
