What is UVHM?

Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode (UVHM) is a challenging new difficulty level in Borderlands 2 and Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel following True Vault Hunter Mode.

What level should you start UVHM?

I would start UVHM if you are Level 51. My recommendation on UVHM is actually to do some of the optional missions especially those that can unlock enemies for you to farm some Legendary weapons (just don’t do the ones that have unique blue weapons that you might want to save for Level 61 or 72).

Is Ultimate Vault Hunter mode too hard?

It’s hard because it’s ultimate mode. The health buff is easily offset if you get in the habit of slagging enemies before switching to your main weapon. (Especially since slag has increased benefit AND duration in UVHM). It is a steep learning curve form TVHM, yes, and the 55-59 zone if particularly hard.

Is UVHM free?

It adds UVHM and raises the level cap. It costs practically nothing ($5/£2.99, IIRC), but it’s free if you buy the Season Pass (it’s not one of the four “main” DLCs, they just threw it in).

Should I play UVHM?

It’s a rough adjustment, but it’s by no means impossible. UVHM gets “easier” with more skill points, and it has the added bonus of being able to reset your playthrough as many times as you want. In TVHM after you finish everything the only thing left to do is farm level 50 gear, mob around, and fight raid bosses.

Will Borderlands 3 have UVHM?

Borderlands 3: Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode Borderlands 3 currently doesn’t have an Ultimate Vault Hunter Mode (UVHM). Previous Borderlands titles did have this game mode that allowed you to replay the game at a very high difficulty setting. Borderlands 3 does have True Vault Hunter Mode (TVHM) and Mayhem Mode.

What is TVHM and UVHM?

TVHM lets you build characters in multiple, viable ways, and play with a bit more challenge. UVHM (once you’re over the level 55-60 grind) really brings gear and skills together. It can seem like there’s only one way to play a given character, but that’s not actually the case.

Is True Vault Hunter mode hard?

True Vault Hunter Mode is the hardest difficulty level for Borderlands 3 and, unlike Mayhem Mode, if you want to play through the game at this level of difficulty, you’ll have to start right back at the beginning of the plot.

Should I play DLC before UVHM?

I now have replayed the game and then rebeat it on TVHM. Now, the problem lies in that about 80% of the places you look, most people recommend you complete UVHM before doing the DLC because they scale into the later levels, meaning you’ll be getting all the best loot in its best form.

What is the point of True Vault Hunter mode?

True Vault Hunter Mode, often abbreviated as TVHM, is a game mode available to players once the story of Borderlands 2 has been completed on Normal Mode. True Vault Hunter Mode is a mode whereby players can replay the campaign on a more difficult setting retaining all of their skills, Levels, XP, guns and equipment.
