Wait until you make it to a place called the Highlands and take a quest called "Arms Dealing."

Yeah, like Gordon said, I probably need to go there first and map it out. Trying to find the mailboxes cold was awful. At one point, I fell into the water while getting attacked, and ended up under a pier.

The delivery missions would have to suck solo. We did the both so far with all four of us. First one in one shot. Second one took two tries.

EDIT: Come to think of it, instead of just mapping it, kill the fuckers that spawn there and then start.

Yeah, so I ended up going back to find all the mailboxes first. They are a lot harder to find without mission flags. At any rate, I found 4 of the 5. But, while doing that, I cleared out all of the enemies. I then went back, took the mission, and finished it with 36 seconds to spare.

Out tonight. Peeps coming over, and also moving my desk downstairs to the basement.

Go ahead and play without me if it is just those low level side missions. Catt can play.

So... what about money? Do I save it up for something, or blow it on slots?

Cash is good for a few things non-trade things...

1) challenge-related things ... namely the "For the Hoard" and the other one that relates to buying Items of the Day from shops ... they're fucking expensive

2) slots, also a challenge related to this (get trip triple eridium or trip logos) in addition to the normal item farming

3) Moxxi's tip jar (you will get SMGs if you tip her enough, but it's in the tens of thousands range)

4) insta-rez/respec fees

5) using cash from advanced character A to twink character B by passing items to them via Claptrap's Secret Stash

I got two shitty blue relics last night when I used a key. Couple decent pistols after that. By the by, first pair of FB/Twit codes expire at 9pm CST.

Doing this without spoilers...

Was goofing around today, and remembered my Zero who was sitting at lvl 12. Starting taking him through the game since my mechromancer is about where we are with my Axton.

Anyway, you know how you have to rescue the one guy from that big thing? Well, because I was rushing, I didn't have guns that did enough damage before he was taken. Because that happened, I have another mission elsewhere to do. That was new...

So, I like to explore, rather than just stick to the missions, etc. Yesterday, I was exploring a city, trying to see if there was an alternate way in, rather than the front door. Or, see if I could snipe people from icebergs. Well, I found an iceberg that seemed to be high enough, but I couldn't quite jump the wall. So I backed up to get a running start. Well, I fell off the edge. And onto another ledge. I couldn't see a way back up, so I decided to jump into the water... and died. Apparently if the water is in the black part of your map, it really doesn't exist.

So then I was exploring and found another part, in Dust. I was climbing ledges with my car, and kinda got stuck. Since falls have never hurt me, I just ran off the edge... and died.

So, then I was exploring again, and found a tiny ledge that I could barely fit my car onto, and was driving along. I then realized that the ledge got too narrow. I started turning the car around, and it fell off, and the screen started to do the blue tunnel graphics of death, BUT I managed to jump out of the car, and back onto the ledge, and live. My car still showed up in the mini-map, but was gone.

Apparently I should quit exploring.

We had a bridge that Cakedaddy fucked up so we couldn't walk over it.

When I logged off a couple nights ago, I could've sworn I had under 20 keys and I'd spent all my badass points. Haven't played since then except to log in, enter shift codes, and maybe check shops. As of this afternoon, I have 39 keys and 38 badass tokens. I don't remember where the hell I got all those keys from. I thought I was down to 17 or 18 or 19 and I'd be up to ~30 by weekend's end.

Also, last set of codes is up. However, recall that last time they had bonus codes at the end, so keep watching.

Yeah, like I said, an extra 10 or so ended up in my acct the other day. Didn't really think about BA pts, since I rarely cash them in, but some extras may have popped up there too.

Just got pack from a holiday party.
