Why are Torgue weapons so good

[chickenchaser97]

Why are Torgue weapons so good, and fun to use? I picked a purple ravager up from an enemy I killed and I wrecked face even without slag, thank gosh I found it, most of my gear was 2+ levels below me but oh my god Torgue is like the best thing ever. TTOOORRRGGUUEEE!



I also found an explosive relic and it's hella nice

Reading this mess, I see some talking out the wrong end.

Since nothing in BL2 is hitscan, people who never learned to aim, which includes leading, will fault the weapons, the enemies and the game. Truth is that they lack basic FPS skills. Dont consoles players use autoaim a lot? This could explain some of this.

I have read that console versions of FPS have aim assist by default, some more than others.

Are you kidding me!? I must have played the older games that don't have it... That is crazy dumb.

It really depends on the character that you play. I would not say that Torgue is the best manfacturer in the game.

Shotguns: I don't know that I have ever had one that I would not use in game. The problem is that there are a lot of good shotguns in the game. The only one that I would not use is a Bandit non unique.

Pistols: There is the Harold and then there is the ...........DPUH? When was the last time that you said? " Holy shot! I got a purple slapper!" Never. I have a hard time thinking of a unigue Torgue pistol other than the Harold. I like the Pocket Rocket, but I think that I am in the minority.

Assault Rifles: Well there is the Ogre and then there is Kerblaster? There might be more uniques that I am not thinking of. I like using the non uniquest when leveling up, but I think that I am in the minority.

Rocket Launchers: This is the most disappointing catagory. The only one that I like is the Creamer. I wish the Nukem was better and could compete with a Norfleet but it can't. The Ahab is great for glitching but that is about it. The non uniques are the worst ones in the game. Small magazine and slow reload without enough damage to compensate. I really wish these were better. The Tunguska you say? Its the only weapon that I have been able to Second Wind and put myself back into FFYL in an instant. F**k the Tunguska!

Grenade Mods: Not a fan unless I feel the need to kill myself.

Shields: Few alright. Nothing spectacular.

Evil Smasher and Boom Puppy. Both are crap.
I like to use the non-unique ARs while levelling up aswell but I also generally like to use ARs, especially ones with a Spinigun-barrel.

i usually have a Torgue AR equipped, and maybe a shotty. tend to like Torgue AR's with either Vladof or Jakobs barrels.

the Evil Smasher used to be pretty good, as you can glitch the weapon and transfer its effect to other weapon (before this got patched out)

The legendary nade mods are great -- if you're standing up on a hill and you want to wipe out a mob below.

and the Bonus Package would like a word with that guy

Yup if you have Longbow or Homing you don't even need to be on a cliff.

I like the "Sticky Homing" version myself, as those ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ Marauders that like to roll out of the way will still get stuck with one

[Draekus]

the Pandemic is also a nice little 'Nade...

[Draekus]

Longbow or Homing variant works for me. toss and forget.
