Pimpernel glitch gunzerker
Hey everybody, i haven't played borderlands for a time and now notice that my gunzerker deals enormously less dmg with the pimpernel glitch on op8 then a year ago. I Can't find any patchnotes, did anything change?
Thanks for help.

Left Hand (2nd or 4th slot): Pimpernel
Right Hand (1st or 3rd slot): Ahab (pretty much no better choice in rocket launcher)

Use an Explosive relic, money shot, and make sure to use up all your rocket launcher ammo.
I don't play Sal, but I know enough about the pimpernel glitch, so this should work. If there was a very recent patch that nerfed this (which is unlikely, I doubt Gearbox would patch the game this late in time), then can't help you there.

Thanks for the responses but Shiniest Meat Bicycle is right, i know how to do it but it doesnt work that good anymore. Same built and nothing changed ingame for me.

I used it recently, and it was wrecking everything, even Terry. Do you have a slag Pimp? It makes the worlds difference. Something could have been patched between here and there, though, as I used it after all the patches. I couldn't fathom it doing anymore damage than it does now, dang.

The Rocket launcher is out of ammo, money shot skilled like always but for no reason it doesn't work anymore. Every weapon is in the right slot, i managed op 8 on digistrict raid easily but now i can't get over the first enemy, something seemes not right here...

Can you screenshot your specs? It seems like your missing an item, or perhaps we're missing a patch.

Oh, you're using a Nukem. You're gonna want a Ahab for the most damage (seraph torgue rocket launcher). You can get it from Master Gee (who you can totally wreck with a gate exploit lol), at Hayters Folly (Scarlett's DLC).

But if you are gonna use a Nukem, make sure it's leveled. OP levels are none too forgiving for an underleveled gun (even if its an OP7 on OP8).

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1480637640 Yes i tried to get ahab when i was playing more often but even with the Nukem i easily walked through so i can't see whats the point when i changed nothing and now it doesn't work anymore. But thanks for the clue with ahab :)

Nothing's changed since you last played. Gearbox' final BL2 Update / Patch was on October 29, 2015. On that date Gearbox announced it represented the final Update / Patch to BL2 and that they anticipated giving no further Updates / Patches to BL2 because they were putting the game to bed. If you have any third party software for BL2 installed, you may want to check if those developers have updated / patched their software since you've been away. Have fun :steamhappy:

Except I gave him pointers on things to check, and you literally just copied me:

In addition I did answer his question directly:

The keyword here is "nerfed", and to my knowledge the pimpernel glitch has not had its damage changed at all, as Zen here just said last patch was years ago.

In other words you have no idea what you are talking about.

Does it? The item card says Ahab does more, but item cards can be decieving, lol. Gotta test it out sometime.

Your skill tree looks fine, imo, but I'm no Salvador main. If all your gear is good/leveled, and the enemies are slagged, then your not doing anything wrong. I wish I could help more, but I'm not seeing anything wrong.

The only thing I can say is maybe play around with different rocket launchers, or perhaps try your loadout outside of D-Peak. D-Peak is insane.
