New Game+ mode

Successfully complete the game to unlock New Game+ mode. In your second playthrough, all enemies are more powerful.

Duplicating items and weapons

Start a co-op game with at least one other player. Drop the item(s) and/or weapon(s) you want to duplicate. Then, leave the game through a non-saving method, such as force closing the game. Since the game did not save after you dropped the item(s) and/or weapon(s), you will still have them, and the other player(s) who picked them up will also have them.

Easy loot and money

Every time you load a saved game, the chests and lootable objects restock. Save the game near a place where there are multiple weapon chests, such as in the town of New Haven. Collect all the loot in them, then save the game. Reload the saved game, and collect all the loot again. Keep the loot you want, and sell the loot you do not want. Repeat this as many times as desired. Note: You get more money and better loot when there are more than one player. This is best done with four players.

Save the game near a location with multiple weapon chests, such as in the town of New Haven. Then, host a game, and have three other players join. Collect all the weapons in the chests, then exit out of the game, and host a new game at the same spot. Repeat this process as many times as desired. You should get quite a few rare weapons using this method.

Easy experience and weapon proficiency

Use the following trick to get easy experience and weapon proficiencies, as well as good weapons and money by selling loot from all the dead enemies. Once you reach “The Middle Of Nowhere” area, you will eventually get the “Circle Of Slaughter” quest. When do you do the quest, enter the arena, and kill all but one enemy (preferably a little one). Do not kill all enemies or the quest will end. Also, do not die or you will potentially lose a lot of money. After killing all but one enemy and collecting all items desired, exit out, and the game will save automatically. Reload your saved game, sell all desired items through one of the nearby machines, and repeat the quest as many times as desired. Note: There are three rounds; the last one is called” Final Round”. Do not finish it if you want to repeat this trick.

Easy experience

Note: This trick requires at least one player with a high level (preferably between 40-50). Have the high level player(s) join your game and travel to places with high level enemies. Stay back, and have the high level player(s) kill the high level enemies to quickly increase your experience because the game has experience sharing. This is also a good way to get high level weapons and items.

Successfully complete the game, and try to be around level 40 with your character. Then, start a split screen game with your high level character and a new character that you want to level up quickly. Find a location with a lot of enemies that are easy to kill (for example, the Lost Cave with the crabs and leveled up Skags). Make sure your high level character was saved in the area you wish to go, and load him or her as the host with the other character as the second player. Leave the low level character by the New-U Station, and use your high level character to kill all the enemies. Your new character will gain levels almost instantly. This will begin to slow down around level 28, but you will still be able to get them to around level 35 relatively quickly. You will now be able to begin a new game with your new character at a very high level and play through the game easily while collecting more and better loot. This is a great way to play with the other three characters and start at a high level.

Hidden house with Rider gun in New Haven

When you get the “Another Piece Of The Puzzle” quest (do not complete), you can go to a secret house in New Haven. When you enter the house, you take a lift down to the bottom. There is one regular weapon chest and a red weapon chest. The red weapon chest always contains the “Rider” gun, which is a reference to the Red Ryder BB gun from the classic movie A Christmas Story . Its stats usually vary slightly each time you get one. The weapon can only be found in this house. The weapon’s manufacturer is “Gearbox” (the game’s developer), as opposed to an in-game company such as Dahl, Hyperion, etc. Note: When this location is used with the others in New Haven for the “Easy loot and money” trick, you can get a lot of loot and money quickly.

Weapon chest locations in New Haven

Hidden rare weapon chest in Rust Commons West

Go to the far northwest corner (on the map) in Rust Commons West. Find the rock wall with the gun tower on top of it. Stand near the left side of the gun tower. Then, crouch and stay against the rock wall as you move down the rocks. The warning sign may appear. Ignore it, and try to move as quickly as possible. The chest is basically in front of the gun tower, under a large rock overhang. The weapons chest has a high chance of spawning rare weapons. Note: It may require a few attempts to reach the chest. Once you get the weapons, you either must kill yourself or exit the game because there is no way to leave this area safely.

Secret “Fish” easter egg in Treacher’s Landing

Go to the secret dock (farthest south point of the starting position) in Treacher’s Landing. Shoot the yellow barrel to the right of the dock. Then, shoot the green barrel in the distant trash pile to the east of the boat. Shoot one of the blue barrels on the boat. Finally, shoot the red barrel in the water to the left of the boat.

“Bandit Treasure” quest

Fast travel to Old Haven, then follow the left wall to find a pile of dead bandits. Look for the glowing bandit or glowing key nearby to unlock the “Bandit Treasure” quest.

“Green Thumb” quest

Fast travel to “The Middle Of Nowhere” Bounty Board. Get a car from Scooter’s, and drive to the right. Look for the small shack with big plants around it. Talk to the man leaning against the shack to unlock the “Green Thumb” quest.

Extra SDU Backpacks

Sometimes during your second playthrough and beyond, you will get an extra SDU Backpack after repairing a Claptrap even after you have reached the 42 maximum allowed slots in your inventory, which is not supposed to happen, and is a known glitch in the game. Thus, before you turn in a repair kit to rescue a Claptrap, exit the game to save. Then, turn the repair kit in to the Claptrap. If you do not get an SDU Backpack, leave the game through a non-saving method, such as force closing the game. Then, try again until you get an SDU Backpack.

Extra item space

Create a second character for use in Co-op mode. When you want to store an item, start a Co-op game with your main character and secondary character. Transfer the items you want to store to the secondary character until you need them, then transfer them back.

Critical hits

It is important to try to get critical hits on enemies so you kill them quicker and get additional XP. To get a critical hit on a human, shoot it in the head. If you use a sniper rifle, it will usually kill them instantly. For a Skag, shoot it in the face when its mouth is open. This varies depending on the type. For the pups, shoot them while they roar at you. For adults, quickly shoot them while they jump at you. For the spitters, shoot their mouths while they fire their poison projectile at you. Critical hits are easiest at close range with a shotgun or scattergun.

Defeating The Destroyer (final Boss)

Make sure you have a good shotgun with full ammunition. Destroy the purple tentacles first by shooting the spheres to prevent it from shooting missiles. Then, jump behind the red tentacles at the very back of the map. You will be next to a wall and two of the large tentacles. You can do this on either side. The eye that shoots the beam will not be able to hit or damage you. The only time you may get hit is if the purple tentacles with the spheres reappear or it does the “energy wave” attack. While behind The Destroyer, shoot at the red tentacles. You should be able to kill The Destroyer in less than two minutes using this method.

Claptrap locations

The ten Claptraps can be found at the following locations. When you repair a Claptrap, it will reward you with an SDU Backpack, which adds three extra slots to your inventory.

    Crazy Earl’s Scrapyard

    When you enter the area, go left at the “T” intersection. Fight your way through bandits, and you will find him in one of the camps. To get the repair kit, just jump on the washing machine to get onto the platform. Kill the bandits, and grab the kit.

    Crimson Fastness

    You should just run into this Claptrap. He will be next to some other dead Claptraps.

    Krom’s Canyon

    When you enter the area, go right. The Claptrap is (from the perspective of only using the right side of the map) at the north west part of that canyon.

    New Haven

    The Claptrap is in the town right next to the bounty board.

    Old Haven

    The Claptrap does not spawn until you have completed the quest to save the Claptrap from the cage. Once you have completed that quest, enter the area, and take the first right. Follow that street, as if you were heading towards the base of troopers that have the two turrets. He will be in a house on your left, before you turn the corner to head towards that base. His kit is on the rooftops.

    Sledges Safehouse

    The Claptrap is in the north west part of the map, near some rubble, and close to a stairwell; listen for the Claptrap’s moaning. His repair kit is above you, when you are standing on the waypoint.

    Tetanus Warrens

    The Claptrap is north of where you start, before you get to the fork in the road, on the left side. The repair kit is further north, staying left, above some metal structures in the first corner, farthest north west.

    The Lost Cave

    The Claptrap is near the point where there is a “T” intersection and a bandit outpost area. When you are looking at the outpost as you enter, the left path leads to a dead end, and the right path leads to the spiral area. The repair kit is up the hill (following the rail tracks up and around) and just behind the second or third building in some pipes.

    The Salt Flats

    When you enter the area, go towards the huge piece of saw machinery. Once you enter that area (from the right side), take your first right, and you should see the Claptrap.

    Trash Coast

    When you enter the area, turn right, and look at your map. You will see a fork in the road, go left, then make your first right. The Claptrap is in the middle of a bandit encampment right next to where a bunch of lava crab worms are. If you find the shack on the ocean, it is straight west of that and a little south. It is almost right in the middle of the southern potion of the map. The repair kit is on top of the pipe where the diamond leads. Follow it back to the trash pile, and climb onto the pipe to get it.

Special weapon effects

There are sometimes cryptic or humorous messages found in the stats box for weapons. These lines indicate a certain effect for the weapon. The text usually gives a hint as to what the special ability does, and is also often a reference to a video game, movie, famous quote, etc. Sometimes the description relates to the Boss or enemy who dropped the weapon. For example, the description for The Clipper reads “Don’t Drop It… Might Lose A Toe.” The Clipper belongs to the Boss Nine-Toes and is the reason for the weapon’s name. Note: Some of the listed effects may not be completely accurate. All weapons vary in quality, except Eridian weapons, which are always green. Boss and quest weapons range from green up to purple, with blue being the most common. Weapons will also vary in accuracy, fire rate, ammunition count, etc., based upon what weapon is the basic model. For instance, some revolvers have two rounds; however, these revolvers generally do more damage than the revolvers that have three or six rounds. Essentially, orange weapons modify the base gun with their special modifiers.

Alien rifles

Note: The text for Eridian weapons are marked differently and apply to the entire class of alien weapon.

    “010011110100110101000111, Eridian Cannon (In binary, it is the ASCII encoding for “OMG”.)

    “Sometimes, I Forget To Reload”, The Dove: Does not use ammo.

    “The Unstoppable Force”, Maliwan Rhino: Rocket will explode in flight, potentially multiple times, before reaching the target and detonating.

Shotguns

Note: The “Holy crap! It shoots rockets!” effect is not displayed in red like other weapon special effects. It can appear on the same weapon as other effects, and depending on the combination, may negate the other effect. For example, a weapon with both “Five heads of Death” and “Holy crap! It shoots rockets!” will only shoot a single rocket with each shot instead of a horizontal spread.

    “Ahhh… Fresh meat!”, Hyperion Butcher: Fast 5-shot burst. (Reference to a quote by the recurring character, The Butcher , in Blizzard Entertainment’s games, found in Diablo and Warcraft III .)
    “Beyond Groovy”, Boom Stick: Fires the gun’s default magazine in one shot as a burst, and each round is a rocket. If the clip is expanded by perks, you will have the left over rounds to fire in another burst. (Reference to a quote in Army Of Darkness ( Evil Dead 3 ), where the main character Ash’s catchphrase is “Groovy” and he calls his favorite shotgun “Boomstick”.)
    “Bring out your Dead”, Maliwan Crux: High corrosive damage.

    “One Bad Dog!”, Dahl Bulldog: Extended magazine.

Sniper rifles

    “A hunter lives among the stars…”, S&S Orion: Each shot ricochets, then splits into three and has a chance of causing shock damage on each hit.

    “The cutting edge”, Reaver’s Edge: Max zoom and chance to ignore shields, potentially with increased zoom.
    “Thwack!”, Nailer: Higher critical damage.
    “Why don’t you go shoot yourself an elephant?”, Whitting’s Elephant Gun: Increased damage, potentially with no scope. (Reference to Bugs Bunny.)

    “I spy with my little eye…”, Hyperion The Spy: Very high (sniper like) accuracy, when zoomed.
    “Smack ’em”, Hyperion Bitch: Very high critical hit damage. (Reference to the “Smack My Bitch Up” song by Prodigy)
