If you're doing the glitch specifically, it won't matter.

4 clip ahab will give you more money shot damage. technically pimperduurphing is stronger than pimperhabbing as the clip size is higher and since youre always firing moneyshot you get more damage. at least thats what i remember from a post online that it works like that. it may actually be that you dont need to put as many points into filled to the brim as you will reach that min mag of 12 for max money shot bonus sooner.

use a durp duuurp which is a torgue launcher with the torgue barrel and the damage prefix. because the clip size is larger than the ahab you will end up doing more damage with moneyshot

Not about the skill or the destroying, but the effort, time, struggle and improvement. Kevin benko is the example.
Exacty like you and i play very differnt styles and watching you play blew my mind

With the latest DLC, I wonder if Pimpernel + World Burn might be better, since I thought the World Burn might be able to get the same number of shots per mag as the Durrp but World Burn has higher damage (World Burn is also 1 ammo per shot unlike Nukem)...

I used flakkerhab as axton to defeat vorac and the dragons, realized I would rather fail than use an illegitimate means that made it too easy.

I honestly see both sides of this. On one hand, I've legitimately beaten pretty much every raid boss solo on OP10 at this point without using any cheese. But, honestly... It takes such an absurdly long time to do that doing the same thing over, and over, and over, and over, and still not getting the actual drop you are going for gets old...FAST. It's not a matter of a lack of skill, but rather, RNG is very VERY rarely fair, and nothing sucks more than spending 12 hours farming the same boss and still not getting the item you're hunting for.

HINT: The game isnt about the gear. Its about problem solving and improvement. Folks that are given or gib all the gear grow bored and abandon the game soon after. Those who limit the means they will use in order to always preserve a healthy element of challenge have playtimes inthe the thousands of hours due to sheer enjoyment.

Not necessarily. People don't generally grind bosses for hours at OP 10 for anything OTHER than gear. And honestly in the situation I mentioned? THAT is boring. It's not fun doing the same thing 30 times in a row when it takes a half hour a go, and not getting what you're actually going for.

I can see both sides, i still grind gear and bosses on my main OP8 Zer0 have 21 ingame days on him and he is a gibbed character.

You may have missed dontu_worry's core point.

The core point being challenge keeps longer playtimes? Yeah, that doesn't always apply for the very reasons I've said. It's not 'challenging' to do the same boss you've beaten 300 times already for the 301st time and still coming up dry. If anything, that would be more DEmotivating to continue playing. But again, this is situational. I definitely feel everyone should play the entire game through without using gibbed or etc a few times. But there is eventually a point where you've already seen and done it all and doing things the long way is boring since you just want to get it over with.

Incorrect. You've simply repeated yourself twice.

Here's the quote I refer to. The point is clear, at least to me. It's clearly spelled out:
