  Hope you guys enjoy the video! Let me know if you&apos;d like to see me cover Gun Zer0 in the same way, and that will basically have covered all major aspects of Zer0 (Melee, Sniper, Gun.) Feel free to share your own Sniper Zer0 tips. Some notes:<br><br>-Rokar informed me that turtle shields CAN be used, even if they fully reduce your health, as long as you don&apos;t have %+ health bonuses. Most of you probably have health boost from BAR, so you might need to disable it if you want to use the turtle shields that do fully reduce your health like the Fable Tortoise. I will link to Rokar&apos;s video for more info<br><br>-Two Fang can actually be decent with Hyperion snipers because of the reverse recoil, or snipers with very little recoil. It&apos;s personal preference at that point whether you wanna use it or not<br><br>-For progression, if you&apos;re needing a new on level sniper the Lyuda and Hot Mama are both excellent, and fairly easy to repeatedly farm. The Lyuda can come in any element and the Hot Mama is locked to fire<br><br>-For the Rising Shot glitch, a Stalker or Survivor COM can grant +6, which is really beneficial<br><br>-I tested the claim about Haderax only being able to heal 3 times. That doesn&apos;t seem to be true. Or maybe there are other factors involved. But either way, he isn&apos;t that hard to one cycle and even if you fail to one cycle him you can prevent his healing by slagging or applying a dot to him<br><br>-Whether or not Tw0 Fang can stack CA seems to be tied to the fire rate of the sniper being used. So in some circumstances it may actually be possible to get two stacks of CA that way, but personally I still really dislike sniping with Tw0 Fang. The way I do things is not the only valid way though, so if you like sniping with Tw0 Fang knock yourself out<br><br>-I put a Sniper Zer0 save file in the description<br><br>-You can still be killed with the glass tank setup by dots or by constantly taking damage<br><br>-The Pimpernel is excellent for enemies that are hard to crit<br><br>-Be careful with Vermivorous. If you die, he can despawn<br><br>-You can check out my Melee Zer0 guide if you wanna see how to skip the entire Peak<br><br>-Hyperion and Dahl snipers can actually be decent, but Vladof and Maliwan are usually going to be better in my opinion. Jakobs snipers can offer good single shot damage, but aren&apos;t great for stacking CA and drop off a bit compared to elemental snipers at endgame (definitely still viable though)<br><br>-The Lyuda and Pimpernel both benefit from having unlisted projectiles with the Bee shield, any weapon with unlisted projectiles will receive full amp damage on each projectile<br><br>-If you want to use Vel0city but don&apos;t like how it alters the Slag Pimpernel, the Slag Snider is an excellent slagging tool as well. It has an extra slag chance due to the splash<br><br>-Pyro Pete drops the O-Negative, a unique transfusion grenade. It can come in slag, so it&apos;s a useful option if you can&apos;t find a better purple transfusion, but it cannot drop with a 0 fuse time<br><br>-For the glass tank setup, taking the Grendel quest at level 75 or farming the Snowman train at level 75 are decent options (although if farming the Snowman you will eventually level past 75.) For the shield, your best bet is probably to set the game to OP8 and check vendors in Sanctuary<br><br>-One thing I forgot to mention is you can pick up weapons off the ground or out of chests to get ammo back, so that is also a nice trick for conserving ammo<br><br>-You can skip the Deception throw animation by scoping in slightly before throwing<br><br>-You can use a low level Fabled Tortoise with a higher level Sniper COM for a speed boost<br><br>-You can also de-aggro enemies by throwing you decoy inside of a wall or something<br><br>-If you’re attempting the Prestack Method for Crawmerax, make sure an enemy that you can easily crit spawns first, as they don’t always<br><br>-Elemental damage also scales better with the Bee than the Gun damage from the Heart of the Ancients if you plan on mobbing with the Bee, although you don&apos;t really need to<br><br>-Digi Scorch also takes slightly more shock damage than corrosive damage. I have heard the same is true for the Assassins but I&apos;m not sure about that<br><br>-Sorry for changing audio levels, currently in the process of dialing in the settings and filters for my new mic<br><br>-I have linked to several videos in the description that you might find informative, so feel free to check those out.

  Ammo anxiety is a real thing with sniper builds. I don’t like admitting it but Man of Low Moral Fiber helped me a lot with my sniper zero play throughs. He explained that as long as you only have sniper rifles in your slots that there will always be sniper ammo to pick up. “Borderlands will provide” became my mantra!

  Crazy how people think zero is weak for op levels when he’s easily the second best raider his critical ascension dmg stacking is insane. Easily the most satisfying build in the game. I’ve also noticed I’ve gotten way better at sniping after playing zero which is super cool.

  Underrated video and channel. What a great repository of information for Zer0—even so many years after the game came out! I still play this game and Zer0 is still my favorite. This video and channel encouraged me to play through it all over again!

  You got yourself a sub very well done, it&apos;s nice to see others put out quality bl content, everyone has basically only killer or joltz these days, puma left years ago, so it&apos;s nice to see some newer blood.<br><br>I&apos;ve only really mained Maya, and Axton they are more my type of gameplay but I just might start one on my seasonal layoff end of April and just grind it out and see how I do with him.

  Dude, you are like way above my head on this OP10 with Zero, you are like more than an expert! I have been playing the game on UVH and don’t know much about all the details of the game, so I ran into your video by chance and decided to watch it and holy cow I’m so lost I did not even know hardly anything you were talking about. In any case, thanks for your video I will watch it to try to get better!
