What character?

[CptSO]

So I only just have this game and I'm unsure as to what character I should play. I am urging towards Lilith or Mordecai but to be honest I'm not sure wheter I should pick one of them being new to the game and all. So what do you guys think I should pick? (I should point out I'm not the best at sniping but I think Mordecai simply has great potential)

[CptSO]

Just remembered I forgot to point out that I will be playing this game singleplayer for the most part, not sure wheter it will make diffirence but at least you know.

Brick is best for beginners and lilith is best for late game.
Mordecai is a weaker alternative to mordecai
and Roland is useful if plying with friends

[Biggles159]

mordecai is a weaker alternative to brick*

Just depends on what type of player you are, If your a Sniper long range type of guy then go Mordecai if you wanna run in head on then play as Brick Roland is a all around guy and Lillith is the weakest of them all imo but is good at high levels

Brick is melee oriented due to what his special ability is not all players would be interested in that or find it fun. Soldier is the all around normal class with a good ability where you can deploy a Sentry gun. Eventually you can make it heal everyone that is near it and even have a chance to revive people that are down. All the classes have their uses and can help a team.

You can have multiple characters at any one time. There is nothing stopping you from trying all the classes out and then deciding which one(s) you like. You do need to get to level 5 for each one to try out their special skills, but this really doesn't take all that long.
I am currently playing all 4 classes; Roland 56, Mordecai 47, Lilith 37, and the last one I started a day ago, Brick, is in the 20's. Not sure which is my favourite, but probably Mordecai. Or maybe Roland. Or Lilith. But then I haven't played Brick for very long yet, so who knows? :-)
Great fun once you get hold of some fun weaponry.

69 lilith/69 mord/69 roland. lilith is easy if you go smg and some class mods have smg ammo regeneration. unlimited fire power. Mordecai no ammo regen however has bullet peircing that can bypass enemy shields. Basically mord can kill enemy health and leave their shields at full power cutting the attack time down to 1/3 or 1/4 the time it takes to kill an enemy. However lacks ammo regen. Either one is good but I'd start with lilith just for the ammo regen class mod equipment.

I partially disagree about Mordecai. And my reason for that, is because Mordecai has 2 Class Mods that'll regenerate either Sniper or Pistol ammo, depending on which one you get your hands on first.

Yeah it's hard to discuss the classes without taking the class mods into account you don't totally get a feel for a character until you start messing around with those. My soldier has a class mod that increases his rate of fire and cartridge size both along with a couple other bonuses. With the right combat rifle it can be pretty epic. You would think only Lilith could get something like that but no Roland can. Playing around with different class mods and sets of gear is a blast.

Starting out I would say at first it's best to just look at the skill trees and decide what special ability you think seems fun to you since it's something you'll be using over and over again.

i got lilith roland and mordicai to 69 brick to 50, lilith is best late game solo roland best for co-op with health and ammo regen mordicai with survivor or gunslinger mod is pretty strong solo as well, brick is great early on in normal with melee and later on with rocket launchers but i didnt like his playstyle as much.
