What QoL mods would you install for a BL2 playthrough?

I plan on starting one soon from start to finish and was wondering if there were any specific mods people use over others.

"Anti Ninja Loot"....

No, Its nod a mod or a thing. Its just something I wish people do have created by now. It was a horrible system and they should of stuck to instances loot from the beginning. Diablo popularised it so its been around since forever XD

How about no mod but actually a functional game that doesn't have horrid framerates just cuz you go windowed mode with V-sync on?
Or a mod that fixes those issues at least. Basic stable game-experience is the most important stuff for me at least.

Runs fine for me on max settings w/o physx on max.

Game runs fine for me on max settings with physx on. Lowest my frames went was to 55 with it locked at 60. That was during a ton of explosions mind you.

Removing framerate lock (just put it to unlimited) works best for me btw. Dunno if you'll experience a more stable experience as well if the FPS is not locked at all?

I know bl1 had some community made mods, from some guns to whole maps and storylines. - is there even any mods for bl2 that add content beside the official dlc's?

I keep frames locked because my monitor is old. I've this mentality of not change it till it breaks xD. Keyboard/monitor are both pushing 13 years old and I am funny enough, using the same monitor I had when I first played BL2 back in the early release days. My eyes have gotten worse over the years, so more frames tends to give me a headache, so it works for me!

Still, with everything that was going on, it kept a stable 60. Like I said, I only saw a drop to 55 during lots of explosions and it corrected itself to 60 almost instantly when the explosions and debris settled.

A lot of what's available are gear replacers, like this one: https://www.nexu smods.com/borderlands2/mods/217 [remove space]

I don't think it's possible to add new content in BL2, but I could be wrong.

As for QoL mods, the community patch is probably what you're looking for, @Kashra.

You could go a bit further and check out this mod, which also includes the community patch:https://www.nexu smods.com/borderlands2/mods/115 [remove space]
The cool thing is you can enable/disable individual features of this mod as well.

I think I'll be giving Reborn a go myself soon now that it's been updated for the latest DLC.

The 4 player selector mod was awesome with the original borderlands 1,2 and The Pre-Sequel. Sadly doesn't work with the remasters though as they are 64bit. It allows you to play as if 1-4 players are in game even when you are solo. The extra difficulty made the game more fun. I have no idea why Gearbox didn't give such an option in game.
