n August, Gearbox released a teaser trailer of Borderlands 2 featuring the new Gunzerker class. New details have been revealed by Gearbox regarding the character to IGN. The Gunzerker’s primary skill will allow him to wield two guns for a limited amount of time. Players can use different combinations to get the upper-hand in battle like for instance wielding an electric elemental gun with a fire elemental allowing the player to reduce enemy shields then dealing maximum flesh damage.
He will have three skill trees, the Rampage tree, the Brawn tree and the Gun Lust tree; each offering different styles of gameplay to the player.
The Rampage tree has a skill called “Yippe Ki Yay,” which allows the Gunzerker to extend the duration of his primary skill mode with each kill. The Brawn tree will be more concentrated on tanking, you can taunt enemies to focus all their attacks on you but at the same time get back to full health and gain damage reduction. The Gun Lust tree which allows you to do health-leeching attacks and is more focused for solo play.
The Siren will be making a comeback but she will not be having the Phasewalker skill from the first game. Borderlands 2 will be out some time in 2012 for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC
