Most YouTube videos about playing the slots focus on what kinds of weapons you get for various symbol combinations, but like vending machines, the weapons you get from playing slots very rarely are better than what you already have, especially if you have an armory.

Even the little carton near the Fast Travel Station in Sanctuary will give eridium two or three times in a hundred and isn't much trouble to check.

However, the slots award eridium at a much higher rate and overall, with a lot less trouble, although I still check Roland's and Scooter's if I have to go into or even pass nearby either place. You may go several trips to either place and get nothing, but then get 4-6 bars of eridium in one trip. I would average about 1 bar of eridium per trip to Roland's per visit and maybe average 1 bar for every 2 trips to Scooter's. At one time, after getting to Sanctuary I would look for eridium in the lockers in Roland's headquarters and in Scooter's, then Save-Quit-Continue and do it again. I found 2 legendaries my first play thru early on and havn't seen one since.Borderlands 2 - Slot Machine Tips Borderlands 2 Slot Machine TipsĮridium can be found throughout the game, but not very often and normally only 1-4 bars in any one place. I was hoping this would be a good way to get a legendary seeing how i farm bosses in a group of 4 only to have 1 purple friggin shield drop after a 15-20min fight and its snagged up by the closest person.īL2 is a great game, i love it, but the friggin loot is killing me. I understand that they are rare, but this is beyond rare, its multiple state lottery rare. I have not gotten 3 marcus or vaults yet. I have gotten about 6 blues, 2 purples, countless greens and whites, eridium coming out the ears, and if i ever hear 'its go time!' again my head might explode.ģ legs gives me a purple sometimes and that is where the 2 i got came from. Ive done this about 50 times so far so thats 50mil up front and damn near 50mil from vendoring prizes for a grand total of 100mil so far. Ever since i hit 50, all i do is farm the 3 regular chest, 2 portapotties, and 1 red chest from thousand cuts and the 3 red chest and saturn from bad lands until i have 1 million dollars and i play slots.
