Devistator vs Harold

[WeeHawky]

Has anyone followed the difference of these ? Other than the devistator shoots cooler of course. Specificly with rubi or grog gunzerking.

The Devastator is basically a lower grade Harold with bullets that behave a bit differently. Nice if you find one, but it will not replace the Harold.

So it can't do as much damage ?

Check the damage on same level guns. I have not found a Devastator that I would consider replacing any Harold with, much less a DPUH.

I just started off with Devistator one play through and I haven't found a reson to get rid of it quiet yet.

Perfect - that's the way to play for the most fun. Don't listen to the noise about this gun, that shield etc just go with what works best for you. You've got many years of embedded crud about 10 famous items in BL2 bouncing around the internet and most of it's wrong or propaganda of dubious value in any event. By your second "complete playthrough" of lvl 1 to game max lvl 80 / OP8 you'll never wanna see another cc, dpuh, bee, sham, norfleet or fire hawk 'and good riddence to 'em all! LOL use the devestator it's fine

Yeah I just started jacking around with different stuff at different levels after getting bored, and Watch_Dogs being a bust to distract me (Wolf 2 did though for a while) .

This is the Dubble Penetrating Unkemt Harold, the most powerful handgun in the game. Dirty Harry quotes aside, At range the harold puts 7 projectiles down range versus the 1 from the Devastator.

I always thought the fibber with the bee was pretty sweet on the mechromancer after around 30ish stacks or so. Problem is the ammo goes quick with her since she can't use infinity without special stuff.

You do not need a bee with he fibber on gaige. At 75+ stacks trashmobs will die in a second and badass+ will take maybe one or 2 seconds more. The only time you need a bee on gaige is for raiding. The bee for mobbing is absolute overkill and you will unnecessarily go into ffyl

Yeah I just used the numbers from the base gun. the double penetrating reference was a parody of a Clint Eastwood line.

Actually it's not. Far from it in fact where killing power near medium and long range is concerned, the game's three most powerful handguns (without accounting for classes or for skills or other buffs) are Maggie, Hornet and ThuderballFists. Most players learn about the DPUH's shortcomings and the other pistols' strengths in the higher UVHM and OP levels.
