This are entirely optional and you'll unlock them along the way. And if you don't want to melee while you're doing that, keep in mind that you can throw the axe.Challenges in the game requires you to kill a certain number of enemies using different methods and damage types, finding/destroying area-specific objects, buying/selling certain number of items etc. My strategy for using Buzz Axe Rampage (prior to getting RtB) was totally different than yours - I didn't bother using it against tough enemies, and instead used it only as a means of quickly regenerating health, often against the last enemy of an encounter. Release the Beast is crazy powerful, so if you can make do with some other build until you hit level 31, you should see a big difference in how good Krieg is at that point. Once you get the trees filled out, though, he's a powerhouse. When you don't have enough skill points to really make those status effects/stacks do much, those skills almost aren't worth using. At low levels, he's just worse than the other five classes, because all three of his trees are based around either inflicting a negative status effect on yourself (Mania & Hellborn) or on building up a resource that doesn't inherently do anything for you (Bloodlust). I tried all kinds of different builds with Krieg and eventually decided that, in terms of how powerful he is, he's the closest thing to an old-school D&D magic user in the game. On the upside, combining Close Enough, Anarchy, and Blood-Soaked Shields is super duper strong, so much so that I really didn't notice not having a particularly effective action skill - having passive skills that are always-on was quite potent. Aside from occasionally getting lucky and having him pull you out of FFYL, he's not going to do much. I can't say anything to Krieg, since I have little to no interest in playing him.Д¬lick to expand.My experience with Gaige is that Deathtrap is really just a distraction for enemies. I've had some traction with a carefully-planned LBT build dabbling in both BFF and Ordered Chaos (for Blood Soaked Shields and Discord), but it's still rather frustrating. Best Friends Forever has some nice stuff, but Deathtrap has some AI problems and, as mentioned, he doesn't synergize well with what you are actually doing while he's out. Conceptually I love the Little Big Trouble tree, but half the stuff in the tree either doesn't work as advertised or is pretty much horrible (or both). Joy.' Not to mention the problems inherent in major story boss fights and the risk of dying halfway through and having to restart without your anarchy stacks. so every time I sit down to play, I look at the screen and say 'Oh, right, I need to go farm up a bunch of Anarchy before I can actually start doing stuff. As hilarious as it is, I can't bring myself to like Anarchy because of the part where you lose it all after you either die or quit the game. unfortunately, her skill tree is kind of a half-functional mess. Honestly, I really want to like Gaige, because most of her stuff SOUNDS really fun, and I love her aesthetics.
