How many guns should I have?

[Cheeky]

Still relatively new at this, but I'm playing as Zero right now. I like sniping so I always have one with me, but I'm not sure how many other guns I should be carrying with me. I'd like to have some space in my inventory but I don't know how to decide which guns to throw away. Any recommendations?

4-8. There's really no point in carrying more than one of each type of weapon, plus a few elemental alternatives.

The only for certain situation weapons you can just leave in your bank.

I suggest anywhere between 4(your max quick swap gun slots), 1 of every type, and "However Many You Feel Is Needed."

I generally stick to the 4-to-1 of each type amount.

You can get up to... 39(?) Backpack spaces eventually, so don't worry much about that early game.

Alright thanks guys. I've been selling a lot of guns, and at early levels those slots fill up quick and I find myself running around like crazy trying to find a store before drops or chests despawn. This should help with that. Cheers.

Bear in mind you don't really need money. In every other game the money you make goes a long way, but in this game enough money drops for you to always have enough for ammo, and also to pay for deaths. Death tax is % based anyway, so if you only have $100 when you die, then you'll only be charged $10, or whatever it is, when you respawn. If you have $100,000 when you die then you'll be charged $10,000 and so on. Try not to concentrate on picking up andf selling everything you find.. even at lower levels :)

p.s. yesterday I had $2,000,000 and died many times over.. it took me down to $800,000 or so. Like I said above, money ingame is virtually worthless and not really needed in vast quantities.

I won't try to convince you that it's pointless and you just need to pick up what you are going to use. When I was new to the game, I did the same trying to collect all the loots and sell them. If I couldn't, I made sure I picked up all expensive ones.

Don't forget there are BAR challenges related to obtaining x number of each color, selling x amount etc, also opening chest.

i would advise you to keep at least 4-8 guns. seperate it into sets of 4 with different purpose (e.g focus on corrode+slag). but honestly really depends on ur playstyle with zero

[Knives345]

I like to be safe and have atleast one close combat gun with me for that just encase moment. then Just go from there with what you feel.

[bubbacho]

It also depends on the class. When playing Zero I like to have several sniper rifles usually with a few variants/elements. Slag/shock Pimpernel and so on.

Compared To Melee Zero I would Have Just Chosen Maya With Reaper. Because Only Critical Ascension Is His Useful skill in that tree Except Bore. But It I had To Say Probably Someform Of A Moxxi Weapon Grog, Rubi, Hail ETC. Also, Some Form Of SMG And Throw In A Pistol Too

Have a variety depending on your situation. E.g. when fighting hyperion equip corrosive weapons in your hotbar
