00:14All right, so we're taking a look at Nisha's action skill right now.
00:17Her action skill is Showdown.
00:19Yeah, Showdown's this kind of cowgirl promise that Nisha has.
00:23When you activate, you go into this spaghetti western mode
00:26where you have the sepia tone and this really cool music
00:29and you target the critical spots on all of the enemies around.
00:34But you do have to be active in it because you hold that left trigger
00:37and you flick between enemies trying to attack out as many as you possibly can.
00:42Yeah, and I mean, especially if you're using something cool like a Jacob's revolver,
00:46you're going to be pulling that trigger nonstop
00:48and you're going to be kind of fanning between all of the enemies available.
00:52What's really cool, though, is that we have skills that will allow you to stretch out
00:55so you can be in Showdown for minutes.
00:57Yeah, the more kills you get, the longer it's going to last.
01:01All right, now we're taking a look at the Law and Order tree.
01:04And this is a really interesting tree because it kind of focuses on the idea of pain and gain.
01:09That is sort of give and take in combat.
01:11As Nisha takes damage in some of these areas, she can actually become stronger,
01:15either dealing more damage in return or even getting her shield back.
01:20This also kind of focuses on her bullweb, which is her melee ability.
01:23Yeah, and this is the first time we've actually had a long-distance melee weapon in Borderlands.
01:28This is also the Fan the Hammer tree, which focuses much more on pistols.
01:34And what's really cool about the capstone skill in this one is that she's able to duplicate her pistol
01:39and essentially guns her.
01:41Yeah, but the really cool thing about this is it's for the rest of the game.
01:44Once you have this capstone, if you have a pistol, you then duplicate to have two pistols for the rest
01:48of the entire game.
01:49Very cool.
01:49And the last skill tree is the Rifle Woman.
01:52This is very much our sort of classic cowboy concept.
01:55You know, it's all about run and gun, hip fire, headshots, a lot of fun.
02:01I think today, though, we're going to focus on the Law and Order skill tree.
02:05Yeah, I think Law and Order really shows some of Nisha's personality.
02:09You know, she kind of takes a bit of pleasure in taking that pain and dealing it back to the
02:13bad guys.
02:13It's also very flashy because as she's getting her order stacks from taking damage,
02:19these Sheriff badge icons will pop up on the screen.
02:22And whenever you use her capstone course with her melee,
02:25she'll do this massive shock damage to enemies, and it just lights up the room very nicely.
02:30Yeah, it looks great.
02:31Very cool.
02:39All right, now we're going to hit the ground running.
02:42People that have seen the E3 demo will remember that Jack has been working with a boy named Pickle to
02:50help him find a military AI.
02:52Yeah, this is a direct continuation of our E3 demo, and we've made our way finally to the Drakensberg,
02:58which is this derelict Dahl ship that's crashed here.
03:00And we've been given information that there is a military AI in here being helped by a guy called the
03:06Bosun.
03:07And he's being helped by another person called the Skipper.
03:09And they're going to stop us, at least try and stop us from getting that military AI,
03:13because it's what's keeping the ship running.
03:15Right, and they're able to effectively stop us because they have an army of Scavs at their disposal.
03:20But what are Scavs?
03:21Well, the Scavs are these ex-Dahl engineers who came down to mine Elpis years ago before the Krakening.
03:28But when the Krakening happened on Elpis, Dahl abandoned them, and they've been stuck here,
03:33and they've been scavenging, and, you know, they've gone a bit stir-crazy.
03:37But they've made do, and a lot of them are living in the Drakensberg ship right now.
03:41So they don't want you to come and steal their military AI, even though Jack needs it to power up
03:45his loaders.
03:45Yeah, they don't seem too keen by our presence.
03:57Very cool. Now, Nisha just did her Cryo Slam because of her Ozca, which is really cool.
04:03I think one of my favorite things about the pre-sequel is that you're able to freeze enemies and shatter
04:07them.
04:08It just looks so awesome.
04:09Yeah, I mean, the fact that they're in low gravity just makes it even more beautiful.
04:12When you shatter someone like Nisha with her whip right there, you see their eyes start floating off into the
04:17orbit.
04:19And Nisha just hit this robber with her whip, and you can see that there's a fairly long-distance melee,
04:25and she was able to get a good shock going with it.
04:30And you can see those Sheriff Stars are coming up now, which means that she's been taking that damage,
04:35and she can then deal it back. So she stores that up just to give it straight back to them.
04:39Yeah, you know, in your traditional combat, you're always kind of wanting to keep your shields up and your health.
04:45But Nisha kind of has some fun with that concept because you want her to take damage.
04:50You know, you don't want to go down all the time, but you want to be taking hits because it
04:55makes you more powerful.
04:56Yeah, I think our designers have actually had a lot of fun taking the player character's personality into their minds
05:02when they've designed their skills.
05:08What's large groups, what's really a great ability is for a showdown, because she's able to clear them out really
05:13quickly,
05:14you know, getting massive numbers of credit shots in a very short period of time.
05:16I mean, she has made short work of those two scavs.
05:22Oh, we see Claptrap in the distance there, going to Pirate Ship mode.
05:27He's helping us out, taking out some scavs himself.
05:29It's very nice. It's always good to have a friend along, especially someone like Claptrap,
05:32because he's very eager to please.
05:34Definitely. He'll take any friend he can get.
05:41And you see the scavs, one of them had a little badge icon above his head.
05:45That's going to show who's been dealing damage to you and who you can impact with
05:49because some of Nisha's skills focus on that.
05:51Yeah, she's a little bit into revenge, Nisha.
05:53That's all right, though.
06:02Yeah, this guy's awesome for it, I think.
06:04Oh, yeah.
06:04He's been dealing quite a bit of damage.
06:07And that web just took his health down to 5-half, which is really cool.
06:11And he's done.
06:23All right, so we're heading inside the Drakensberg now.
06:26They're probably not, you know, waiting to hand over their military eye for us.
06:30You know, as nice as that would be, we're probably going to encounter some resistance.
06:34Yeah, that's okay, because I've got a really good feeling about the showdown in this room.
06:38Once we get their attention, she should be able to clear them all out pretty quickly.
06:42Good slam to start it off with.
06:47Yep.
06:49Nice.
06:51Yeah, it effectively just took down, I think, three or four scabs right there.
06:54It was very cool.
06:54Yeah, Nisha really likes to come into a room and clear it from the opening door.
07:02See if she can shatter these enemies in time.
07:06He defrosted just in time to get shot.
07:08Yeah, I think it all worked out.
07:13And that was Claptrap's clap-in-the-box skill right there in action.
07:17People may have noticed that he was walking by with one of those old, creamy bombs with the short fuse
07:24on it.
07:25Very cute.
07:32Wow, that was a huge amount of damage right then.
07:35Yeah, and you know, we're in true Vault Hunter mode, so enemies here are going to be tougher.
07:38They're also going to deal a lot more damage.
07:41And with the way that Nisha has specced out today, that actually works in her favor.
07:46And you see, we're in oxygen at the moment, so these guys are going to maintain that burning status.
08:05Looks like the bosun isn't just going to give us the AI.
08:09No, probably not on the top of his priority list at the moment.
08:12He's probably going to get the Skipper to try and stop us, I think.
08:16Well, that's alright, because, you know, Nisha's very powerful.
08:19She's got Claptrap to back her up.
08:20Should be fine, I think.
08:22Yeah.
08:23I think they might be having some troubles in their relationship as well, the Skipper and the bosun.
08:30So, there's a chance we may be able to sway it to our side.
08:33Yeah, the Skipper might come in handy.
08:45Looks like the bosun has sent some more enemies to come and try to stop us.
08:49Let's get an awesome slam in here.
08:50Yep.
08:51Nice.
08:54Very nice.
08:54Nisha just cleared out all of his shields with her bullet.
08:57And, uh, Nisha's just been Claptrapped as well.
08:59Uh-oh.
08:59With, uh, blood jerking.
09:10Slam.
09:11Nice.
09:12Very cool.
09:13I mean, that Skipper was, uh, had a lot of health left still.
09:16And she just knocked him out with that weapon.
09:26Well, it looks like the Skipper may have some reasons to help us after all.
09:30Excellent.
09:45All right, so it looks like we have a new ally, uh, with the Skipper.
09:48She's going to open the door for us and get us outside.
09:52And I think that's a great time for us to kind of wrap up this video.
09:55Uh, thanks for tuning in.
09:57Uh, Borderlands, a pre-sequel comes out in North America on October 14th.
10:00Uh, and it comes out October 16th in Australia and October 17th for the rest of the world.
10:05Uh, thanks everyone.
10:06Bye.
10:16You coming?
10:17You coming?
