When should i play the Headhunter DLC?

[fleetstdemon]

Is there a minimum level requirement or recommendation? Can i do them in PT1 or should i wait to TVHM or UVHM?

Also my main char is a level 51 Zero in TVHM currently doing TTAODK. Is the mission level cap 50 or will the missions scale higher in TVHM?

They are showing up as lvl 50 with a normal rating just now.

You can play them when ever you please. I've tried them in normal / TVHM / UVHM / OP8 and everything either scales to the story missions you are currently on or directly to your level (UVHM+).

max lvl in tvhm is 50 all gear drops stop at 50, although you will keep lvl'ing up, makes it harder when you start uvhm, i would recommend starting uvhm now at lvl51 if you want to make it to sanctuary

Ok, thanks. What exactly does the Headhunter DLC contain? I'm assuming a few missions and bosses but are there new items, weapons and skins too?

I'm trying to get a better idea of the contents without spoiling it for myself.


@rresuggan: I think i screwed up then. I did PT1 without realising that the Captain Scarlett and the Torgue DLC should be done during a playthrough as opposed to afterward like the Hammerlock and Tina DLC (with regards to story continuity).

So when i started TVHM i went to the Torgue DLC almost right away, then Scarlett, then got the main story to Opportunity, then went into Tiny Tina's DLC.

Do you think i should just blow through the main story now?

Technically, each of them has a couple of missions (Wattle Gobbler has a one extra that makes it "few" in total), various/unique chests/enemies and such that considerably makes it easier (and maybe more exciting) to farm, and themed heads (after the completion of the main quest) and skins (to farm for) for each character.

i have all the dlcs and sadly like you i didnt know when to start them. doing all side quests and main story plus just random fooling around pushed my level to high and kinda ruined the dlcs in normal and then again in tvhm.

i'm doing uvhm atm started it at level 54 which made it sorta hard at first but with sound strategy and a bit of tvhm legendary farming i managed to get the ball rolling in uvhm.

so my plan now is to do everything ... all the dlcs from scratch because no matter what my level they will all match it. so far tiny tinas is done (fully rate that dlc) and looking to do the crater next. they should all be fun as i havent done any off them.

good luck my advice would be to push through to uvhm and try them then.
