DLC Levels?
What level should I be for each DLC? And is there any gear I should have before doing each one?

The level of a DLC will be set according to your level when you first visit that area. In Normal Mode, the Captain Scarlett (Oasis) and Torgue (Badass Crater) DLCs can be level 15~30. The Sir Hammerlock (Hunter's Grotto) and Tiny Tina (Unassuming Docks) DLCs can be level 30~35.

Once you beat the base game on Normal Mode and start True Vault Hunter Mode, all the DLCs can go up to level 50, iirc. Once you beat the base game on True Vault Hunter Mode and start Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode, then EVERYTHING will ALWAYS scale with your current level.

Beat the base game on Normal Mode first, then do the DLCs in True Vault Hunter Mode. The "story" of some of the DLCs assume that you have beaten the base game. The same goes for the five Headhunter packs (I think those go from level 15~35 in Normal Mode).

Just do them in release order:

- Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty (Oasis)

- Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage (Badass Crater of Badassitude)

- Sir Hammerlock's Big Game Hunt (Hunter's Grotto)

- Tiny Tina's Assault on Dragon Keep (Unassuming Docks)

- T.K. Baha's Bloody Harvest (Hallowed Hallow)

- The Horrible Hunger of the Ravenous Wattle Gobbler (Gluttony Gulch)

- How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day (Marcus' Mercenary Shop)

- Mad Moxxi and the Wedding Day Massacre (Rotgut Distillery)

- Sir Hammerlock vs. the Son of Crawmerax (Wam Bam Island)

Beat the base game on Normal Mode first, then do the DLCs in True Vault Hunter Mode. The "story" of some of the DLCs assume that you have beat the base game anyway. The same goes for the five Headhunter packs (I think those go from level 15~35 in Normal Mode).

Just do them in release order:

- Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate's Booty (Oasis)

- Mr. Torgue's Campaign of Carnage (Badass Crater of Badassitude)

- How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day (Marcus' Mercenary Shop)

- Mad Moxxi and the Wedding Day Massacre (Rotgut Distillery)

- Sir Hammerlock vs. the Son of Crawmerax (Wam Bam Island)

So I should beat the game, then do the DLCs?

I would. But if you don't mind spoilers or references going over your head, then you can do them whenever. Just make sure you're around each DLC's level range.

Again, the narrative of some of the DLCs assume that you have beaten the base game.
