I could continue farming or I could change the scope using gibbed.ģ) I want to farm a perfect Flame of The Firehawk, but can't be bothered to reset my playthrough, I have the choice between Alt+F4, read-only farming and gibbed.ġ) This is fair you are cutting down a lengthy process, without giving yourself something for free.Ģ) This is cheating, you are modifying something in a way that gives you something for free.ģ) Resetting your playthrough is the only legitimate method, anything else is either cheating or abusing a games mechanics.Īre my answers right? Nope. Here are a few examples of how broad 'legitimacy' is:ġ) I can buy an Unkempt Harold from a Torgue vending machine, then change it to the parts I want, or I can log in and out for around 2 hours hoping the one I want shows up.Ģ) I have farmed the perfect Lyuda, but I don't like the scope. Despite this, people still get upset about 'legitimacy', because some people just use gibbed for free gear, and to some people they don't want to play with players like that in multiplayer.

Gibbed was made as a testing tool, a save import tool (from console to console, console to PC or PC to console), as a way of helping people who wanted to change character without starting over, and also to get gear they would not have time to farm. I think his point was you didn't need to make a defensive statement in your post to, because no one here cares if you use it, your choice, your experience. Generally Maliwan is best and Hyperion is second best (it's important to know this as some shields have fixed parts), the only exception is pangolin (AKA turtle) and tediore (AKA standard) shields, as they don't have a special effect, so up to you what parts you want for those. Prefix: type 'None' (without quotation marks obviously) Gamma: Shield capacitor, ditto to the above Item: Whatever you want the shield to be (if you choose something like the Pun-chee you must have selected the correct expansion or the item won't work)īalance: Rarity you want, if you are choosing a red text shield there should be only one optionĪlpha: Shield body, use a parts chart as a reference (linked below) It's extremely easy to use, I figured out gib with Zero guides, it's the most user friendly testing tool there is.
