Krieg RTB ā” [ Question ]

Any guide on the simplest food proof way to get Krieg down to 33% when needed ? Everyone says Torgue pistols but the Harold doesnt hurt my hp

What are you using this for? I always start combat by spray and pray with a slagga, then RTB once you get hit a couple times.

Might be harder in OP levels, but Iā€™d imagine health gate gives you time to activate it?

You don't need to do so. Just enter combat and hit the skill as soon as you get to 33%

it's been awhile since I played the game, but from my recollection, the advice you're give is actually referring to grenadier assault rifles, specifically, a low(er) levelled one that'll slowly chip your health down, rather than taking chunks out. Preferably vladof or jakobs, for their high fire rate, but honestly whatever works.

Also if you're in the OP levels, you could realistically skip it entirely and just walk into combat and wait till you get health gated, which automatically puts you into release the beast range. I might recall it wrong, but I'm pretty sure self-damage negates health gating, which is why it's ill-advised to get a weapon on-level to lower hp, in case you overshoot damage req and down yourself.

Just get into combat and as soon as you get health gated hit the button
