 How's it going guys, my name's DP and today I bring you another BR3 video. If you do enjoy it leaving a like really helps out and subscribe if you do want to see more. So on April 23rd Mayhem 2.0 was released and with it a whole host of issues which seems no matter what Gearbox do, they get worse. Now not long after the release of Mayhem 2.0 we started seeing complaints within the community on Mayhem 2 and it's loot drops being broke. For the first week I didn't really notice it to a crazy high degree but I did think something was off. Well it seemed as though Gearbox weren't listening because within the April 30th hotfix they addressed problems via changes made to drops within Mayhem moulds. They stated, adjusted the drop rate for legendary items within Mayhem moulds and also adjusted the drop rates for the 90 gear in Mayhem moulds where here I do believe within Mayhem 10 a 90 gear is guaranteed or at least it's meant to be. But after this hotfix was applied it seemed to me that that drop rate had gotten even worse to a point of actually being shocking. I asked via my discord and noticed I wasn't the only one suffering. It was literally 99% of people thought Mayhem 2.0 drops were utterly broke. So I did a little more research and I figured it was a problem almost everyone was having. Really it was full of Mayhem 10 broken posts so I quickly knew something definitely wasn't right. And I feel whatever adjustments was made via that April 30th hotfix the drops that were adjusted they adjusted them the wrong way making them even more scarce. I then stumbled upon a post on Reddit which suggested there was a bug in place within Mayhem moulds where a guide fan via looking through the data of the game that loot drops from non-enemy bosses was set a stat value of 0 and adjusting this did nothing within Mayhem moulds. Outside of Mayhem moulds adjusting it had crazy effects but inside Mayhem it didn't change anything. That video I made last week I did with intentions that Gearbox would see and hopefully address it. Well within the latest hotfix of May 7th we saw them state they have addressed a bug within Mayhem mould that led to lower than intended drop rates for all Mayhem levels. The problem we seem to be all having. Well I can confirm these changes via the May 7th hotfix I feel were left out of hotfix applied to my Xbox because Mayhem 10 loot drops now are just as bad as what they were before this hotfix I do not see a difference whatsoever and looking at Gearbox replied to folks on Twitter stating the following. Loot at all levels should be much more common following this hotfix and the most loot will drop at Mayhem 10. Well guys that's BS because it's more or less the exact same and I've actually ran my own tests. On screen now you are seeing a farm for legendos on Mayhem 4 prior to Mayhem 2.0 and its addition. This spot is full of decent leveled enemies so the drops were great. Now the gameplay will run in the background while continuing on talking but you will notice the amount of legendos will drop. I'll then go back to this spot and play a recording I did on Mayhem 10 a little over an hour ago with the hotfixes applied. So what's actually going on with the game right now? Why is it seemingly going to crap? Hotfix after hotfix fix after fix more problems seem to be arising. And guys rest assured I love Borderlands I really do but I won't hold back and brand-nosey things go back. I will straight up tell them about the problems we are having. I mean I've got quite a decent Borderlands community that follow me not the biggest on YouTube but I've got people to look out for and that's why I will continue on telling the truth. I mean yes I look out for everybody's intentions who supports me but at the same time I do want the best for the game and hopefully Gearbox can see that if you ever get around to watching this video. So let's not sugarcoat it like many many other content creators I see do. These problems need fixing ASAP before it gets too late. And before anyone says do you think the drop rates are bad now? You should have played BR1 or BR2 where you had to farm a bus for a week to get a single drop although weapons still people are searching for today. Listen I get that. I played those games probably not to the scale of you guys did but I played those games but games have since moved on. Gearbox originally moved on with BR3. So quickly back to the gameplay. All these beautiful legendos we've seen drop here were on Mayhem 4. The standard Mayhem 4 before Mayhem 2.0 was introduced. Now in the background you'll see footage of me running the exact same place on Mayhem 10 and you'll see the difference is absolutely unreal and this is with the addition of Cartel Fogs 2. So yes in the early days of loot shooters loot could be lucked behind a ridiculous grind. A grind many people included myself kind of enjoyed doing but as times have moved on people have moved on too. The new area of loot shooters are nowhere near as stingy and people won't tolerate a weak worth of farming for a single item especially when there are thousands of items you want to get and if there are other loot shooters out there which are much more rewarding people will shift to those kind of games and I believe Gearbox going into Borderlands 3 understood this. Now loot right now on Mayhem 10 is at that plus 2,500% drop rate. Whatever that plus 2,500% drop rate number is on the basis of it 100% in my opinion is not working as intended or guys is it. Is what we're seeing here intentional and that what we first thought was a bug with none boss enemies drop rate set at a zero was it's an intended addition by Gearbox because let's face it the fixes they have stated have been addressed haven't fixed any of the problems we're experiencing with loot so unless these were not intended changes or unless they accidentally left them at the hotfix which applied I mean mayhem 2.0 for the most part to me it's great but there are certain aspects of it which I don't think before out properly the fact if you take a mayhem 10 weapon into mayhem 1 it feels like you're using a mudded weapon where you can literally one tap every enemy weapon should scale with modes going backwards so a mayhem 10 weapon being taken into mayhem 9 should scale to mayhem 9 and those damaged levels a mayhem 10 weapon taken into mayhem 4 should scale down to a mayhem 4 weapon because if you have a friend who joins the Borderlands community I could bring my gear down from a mayhem 10 and play the game with my pal and enjoy it with them not just making it easier for them getting him bored after five minutes and taking a challenge out of it so weapons should indeed scale backwards another problem mayhem is let's say you play mayhem 10 and even though they said they addressed this I'm still getting way on the level the legend those drop I mean drop rates are bad enough as they are but I don't expect that one chaos and I've had after about a hundred kills to drop way under the level it should be why is this surely with a loop being as limited as it is this isn't intentional so why are such things still happening now I hope the issues we are seeing here with Borderlands 3 are not intentional and fixed sooner than later because right now I won't lie it's kind of hard to play and I know I ain't the only one who feels this the other issues are constant freezing people are experiencing they're lagging menus a lot in times and now loop problems added onto the list and I know there are many other niggling problems too but these are the main ones I seem to encounter myself I just hope the next patch we see fixes the issues and fixes them for good maybe the problems with the loot can't be fixed via a hot fix maybe they're pulling off a fix working on a patch which will fix all the problems we are having so back to the gameplay in the background so when the exact same place on mayhem 10 you can see the difference is unreal like I said a spot with many many high level enemies and the addition of cartile fogs too it honestly just shows how broke it really is and comparing it to mayhem 4 which offered a plus 700% loot increase where mayhem 10 is a plus 2500% loot increase over three times while it was unmayhem 4 you honestly can't think this is okay mayhem 10 now should have been the equivalent to mayhem 4 before mayhem 2.0 was dropped because mayhem 4 loot drops were incredible they were perfect I mean yes she had the odd incant to where things didn't go your way and you probably killed graveyard and got no legendaries but for the most part he would drop up to 6 or 7 which was way more rewarding and was worth the time farming him even if there wasn't anything you wanted but mayhem 10 loot drop values now just seem completely off now another issue I am seeing more and more of is people modding modding is now rife and the fact you can easily transfer items over from PC to console makes it worse but what people are doing and are more so accepting now are items being modded to a mayhem 10 stat value and being transferred around because said items are not dropping because of said problems and I have a feeling the longer things go on like this the more and more this will become the go to thing with loot and there's probably a ton of these weapons already circulating because if someone mods a weapon let's take a sequel they make it up to a mayhem 10 stat value and it matches perfectly well it would be if it dropped in game nobody's gonna be any other wiser so unless the loot becomes more abundant this is what people will do and it'll just pass them on and you'll accept items you won't even know have been modded and this for me takes everything away from the game or what it is if you don't play borderlands secondly for farming obviously after firstly for the story you're playing the wrong game so the longer the problem persists the more more we will see shortcuts like loot being created go on and on and being even bigger problem for a gearbox so hopefully the issues we're experiencing right now are soon fixed now if any more news doesn't do drop I will have it covered right here on my channel so stay tuned but yes people rest assured even after the latest hotfix mayhem 2.0 loot no matter level you are playing on still seems utterly broke so you're not the only one experiencing it now if you guys are new to my channel and watching me for the first time and you have discord make sure you join my
