I’m not kidding when I say the blue tree is bad, I’d call it the worst skill tree in the entire game. And with anarchy already, you will most likely kill anything before DOTs even apply. Even more pep is only good because it adds extra slag chance. It doesn’t even increase damage, it’s just more pep but worse since it’s a kill skill and not a passive buff. Electrical burn just adds another equally weak DOT, shock and aaagh is too weak to do anything except heal you with a moxxi weapon, evil enchantress makes your pitiful DOT slightly better. Seriously they’re so bad, and won’t do anything at all to anything even on characters who specifically build for it. In NVHM in TVHM they’re usable but they do not scale at all in UVHM. I would even say there unusable with how bad they are, even with guns that are made to do DOT damage like the infection. The problem with all of Gaige’s DOT skills is that DOTs are beyond terrible at max level. You will never notice a 5% damage resistance in a million years. Seriously, without the 50% fire DOT resistance it’s one of the worst skills in the game. I can’t remember exactly how much MOSS adds but it’s so tiny that it’s not worth using AT ALL. Enemies are doing so much damage that a small percent off doesn’t matter. If you aren’t prestacking have max points in typeclast iconoclast whenever possible, if you are then you don’t need this skill at allĭamage resistance isn’t good at all unless you specifically build for it like with the rough rider. You don’t need upshot robot for mobbing at allįor bossing take out unstoppable force, strength of five gorillas evil enchantress and maybe myelin I like using buck up but it’s not required. Put max points in blood soaked shields whenever possible

And if you want to use WDT then use a class mod that boosts it, I believe the max is 33% extra shock damage. In general gaiges whole blue tree sucks and even wires don’t talk isn’t worth putting points into that tree for unless you really want to for some reason.

Shock an aaaagh sucks too, the only thing it has going for it is that if you hold a Moxxi weapon when it goes off it will heal you. Gaige has no other passive health regen.Įlectrical burn sucks, so does evil enchantress. The HP buff on that skill sucks, the reason you put one point in it is because the skill gives you a hidden 50% fire DOT resistance Only put 1 point in made of sterner stuff.

I didn’t analyze each build closely but general points are Gaige is my most played character with 12 or so days put into her so I think I know a lot about her.
