And while you can play the same character your friends are playing when you play together, Varnell says you really should mix it up. Each class has three skill trees. And we really spent a lot of time with 'Borderlands 2' making sure each skill tree is different. Play Maya the Siren, for example, and follow the skill tree known as "Harmony" and you'll end up with a character who has some really great healing powers that can be a big help to your team.
If you put her Harmony skills to use, she will be able to instantly revive a dying friend from a distance and she can even fire healing bullets at her own teammates. Meanwhile, Salvador the Gunzerker has a "Brawn" skill tree that ramps up his physical toughness. These are the kinds of things you should take some time to think about before you start a co-op game because it will really pay off in the long run.
Are you sniping or going melee with Zer0? Are you support Maya or damage Maya? Be nice But no matter how you're connecting or who you're playing with, "Be nice," Varnell says. Sure, a little friendly competition is part of the game. Because "Borderlands 2" is set on Pandora — a planet alive with a very wild wild-west spirit — the game involves competing to see who gets the best loot: awesome guns, cash and other goodies that appear in the game as you explore the world and defeat enemies.
You have to decide who gets that piece of loot," Varnell says. But you know, be nice and be considerate. If someone else is using sniper rifles and a good sniper rifle drops, you should probably let them have it.
And vice versa. It really is awesome when you play with a great team and you have that kind of graciousness and you think of each other. Pick it up! Grenades and Rockets are not shared. Reward items for completing quests are given to each player. So if a reward offers a shotgun, and only one player turns it in, everyone else will have a similar shotgun added to their inventory.
Lower level characters will automatically have their missions marked as completed during the session in which there is a vast level difference between players. You will keep currency, XP, and any loot you earned or picked up in the session, but the actual completion of the story mission must be done again in your single player game.
Special note: When a player returns to their own game world they will be given the option to "Fast Forward" through any story missions they may have completed once they have progressed to the proper time in their own story line. Game progress is shared between all co-op characters in a session so long as each character has progressed to the current story mission.
If guest players are on the same story mission as the host, story progress will be saved in the guests' and host's campaign.
Story progress will not be saved for characters who have not yet reached the host's campaign mission. Basically, you can't skip missions by playing co-op. You can still participate in the mission and get experience and loot, but if you go back to your single player game - you'll still need to complete it again. The player with the least story progression should host the session, that way they won't miss out on any story elements. Enemy levels are based on a number of factors including the area and host player level.
