Gaige vs Axton

[Smokey]

Who is most Badass through the entire game?
If it's possible to say like this

[example]
round 1: Axton/Gaige = equal
round 2 = Gaige
round 3 = Axton

Ps. really have no idea about this so if some pro knows this i would be glad :)

Really depends on your playstyle and what you are attempting to accomplish.

[FelixSylvaris]

Not really, you cant say like that.
Axton is more beginner friendly, since he is your regular grunt. And you are just getting better with levels.
However Gaige could be have more stacks of Anarchy. And Ninth degree, and at some point it is just more dps than anything axton has.

I mean, I'm playing Gaige right now, thorugh True Vault Hunter Mode, I'm level 50, mostly did the DLC content as of this playthrough, so by the time I started doing the Main story, i was lvl 50.

So far as it stands now, I just run around with a weapon that does around 9K ish damage as a base stat. Usually get 400 stacks of Anarchy, with Recoil, and aside bosses, there's not a monster I haven't one shotted yet. With the stacks of Anarchy and the pistol, and Tiny Tina's nade launcher weapon. I'm doing around 500-600K dmg. Funny.... Never really tried an Anarchy build with her before, but it's insane.

Edit (On critical hits)

[Natsuki]

Gaige have the anarchy skill which can beat axton

[PureRok]

Unless you're like me and don't put any points down that tree.

[Grantorino]

Axton's slag turret does a lot of damage on normal up until Tina's DLC. I never took him into TVHM. I think people respect his tree into survival after that.

I self got both to UVHM but im unsure who i like most but think it's Gaige i like best now, but in first gameplay i preferred Axton for sure! And build i self want to find out ^^
just wanted to know who can be best with the right build / loadout of these 2 characters :P

Ps. 1st round goes to Axton xD
and from what it sounds then 2nd & 3rd goes to Gaige cause of her Anarchy skill

(no need for more opinions when the liqour can do the thinking ;)

[Saint.Million]

Anarchy is only useful so long as you have stacks of course... And they are pretty easy to lose. And even if you manage to hold on to them they're reset each time you quit/reload.

Anarchy is great, but it's not massively reliable.

gaige on normal is very strong for just 1 point u rise u dmg almost 200%.axton is very strong wen u get gear

[Starbug]

Axton is better all round. DT gets in the way in coop and she's not got the variety of builds that Axton has.

Explosive beats shock imo.
