You don't know how lucky you are, boy. Back in BTPS (sung to the Beatles song Back in the USSR).

It doesn't sound right, but the feeling is right, and that's all that matters. I'm back in Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel because new DLC dropped a little while ago and I forgot about it. I had the season pass, so it was time to get back to the grind, except this time, I was going to stick to my guns and build a character exactly the way I wanted it; and I did, up to about level 18 over the weekend. I built this Baroness character that came from the previous DLC. She's Hamerlock's wife and acts like a rich snob, but it's funny. Here's a pic.

I decked her out all in white (looks blue here but it's white) and role-played her like she is obsessed with cryo (ice) gear. Her skills are all about cryo damage and all her equipment has cryo damage. I also collected any piece of equipment I found with cryo on it and saved them and tried to grind them into better stuff. Only thing though, if you grind three cryo pieces of gear, they don't always come out cryo. So far they've all come out with flame boosts. Weird. 

Using all cryo damage is very fun to watch. Snow falls everywhere and shards of ice fly around and go after the enemies. Often I'll freeze an enemy solid and slap him to pieces. The only problem I've had so far is with ice Kraggons. Those things are resistant to all cryo damage making it really hard for me to stop them. Usually they are just a nuisance though and I run past them. Nearly everything else suffers severe frostbite when I am around. 

I started carrying around one fire damage weapon though, because there was a side mission I couldn't finish because I couldn't take out a giant ice Shuggurath with my cryo weapons. My character's not happy about that. It's cryo or nothing as far as she's concerned. Fire is just beneath her. So uncouth.

I'm planning on continuing the main quest to the end and then hitting the two new DLC areas of the game. My friend Mark next to me was playing the new DLC where you go inside Claptrap's mind. I heard a lot of the funny dialog and I can't wait to get to that; however, I'm having fun role-playing element-specific characters. I'd love to do an all-fire one next and see what that looks like in action. 

I also played some Grim Fandango today while waiting for the Borderlands DLC to download and got past the very first stumbling block I had getting a work order signed. An hour latter, I was at another conundrum. Will this game every let me finish it?

That be it. Keep on keepin' on pixlbits.
