Does Gettle scale with you?
Since "The Dust" apperantly scales with you, does that mean that Gettle and everyone else there scales with me as well? I mean, can I for example go farm him at, say lvl 40 (for a lvl 40ish Lyuda), and then farm him again at lvl 50 (for a lvl 50ish Lyuda)?

ok cool, thx!

provided you have killed the warrior first and unlocked uvhm, all farming will scale to lvl50, if you havent he will still be lower level

Even if I have already done the quest earlier on?
rresuggan Jan 13, 2016 @ 3:38pm 
yes farming just means you go back and kill the guys again once you hit lvl50, the dust is a good place to farm as you have gettle and mobly the black queen and macnally and hoducks/zafords who all drop legends, just dont do it for too long as you want to start uvhm as close to lvl50 as possible, in uvhm all enemies scale to your level and you will only have lvl50 gear

Wrong.

The Dust & Lynchwood have different scaling than most other maps. All enemies will scale to character level within the playthrough range, independent of story progression.

Maybe there are other maps which work like this, spontaneously only those two come to mind.

I was about to say "no" unless you defeat The Warrior and then revisit the source who drops the Lyuda bc I got a low-level Lyuda rather than getting one on-par with my character's level. Say you defeat The Warrior at level 28, then likely every other item like loot might drop at that level as well. Specifically, side quest rewards and legendaries. Cannot recall if every weapon dropped is of level as well.

Gettle will start to scale to your character's level all the time, when you play UVHM.

specific levels? your level when doing the fight, Lyuda drop level, story progression..?

I am 100% sure the Dust and all enemies there scaled to your level some time back. If that's not the case anymore, the only possiblitly I could think of is that it was changed in the latest big patch 3 months back.. but I'd be surprised, it never seemed like a bug to me.

And about the warrior... the maps which scale up after killing him (not all of them do) scale to level 30 in NVHM, independant of your level when killing the warrior.

Then I wonder why I a lvl 9 Lyuda dropped during a side quest at level 16? I found out why. i-r-o-n-y

because it was patched, idiot. just as i stated as a possiblilty in my reply to you.


@rresuggan.. considering your playtime, you must be a really slow learner. did you just idle 3000h?

The Dust did scale to character level for ages. If you never figured that out yourself in 3000h, you have mental issues.

It was apparently patched somewhere along the way, which I stated as a possibility earlier already. Seriously mate, stop being a chilidish b*tch.

oh boy.... i have seen you post so much BS in these forums in the past year or two..

I will do you the curtesy of correcting you in the future whenever you talk crap. You asked for it.

Well buddy "possbility" is not a valid answer. It's either yes or no, and you are replying with "maybe". Definitive or invalid.

Have a look at this and not sure what you're trying to accomplish here but make sure you are aware of a certain topic, bc I don't see it, not in this patch at least.

I've checked the dedicated wiki and I can trust it bc it is updated by dedicated players.

You are such an idiot. The actual wiki agrees with me 100%. Irony at its best.

again: what I said about the Dust was right for ages. And apparently was patched at one point.
There is absolutly no base for your attitude.

If you think this forum (or any internet forum, for that matter) is about exact science, you take this whole thing a bit too serious. You know, like the kind of people who are total underachievers with no satisfaction in real life.
