Other DLC How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day

Get Frosty

In order to start this DLC, you’ll need to be at least level 15 and then pick Marcus’ Mercenary Shop from the fast travel station. Start off by talking to Marcus, who wants you to go to Gingerton to check up on a shipment of trains he sent and hasn’t heard about arriving yet. As you go outside, just follow the marker on your map until you run into some Yetis.

Despite the name, these enemies look and behave just like Bullymongs from the main game, so there isn’t anything new to report about there. When you get to the front gate of the town, a Badass Yeti will bust through it and attack, so put him and his buddies down, then enter the town. It looks like the town has been frozen over and Marcus is worried about losing repeat customers, so he sends you off to check the town’s furnace.

You’ll encounter some more Yetis along the way and when you get to Frost Bottom Station, you’ll find that the furnace is out of coal. Follow the trail over to the bunch of snowmen, only for them to come alive and attack you! Luckily for you, they aren’t really dangerous, as they only seem to try to get close to melee you; also, they have critical spots on their head, making them easy targets.

The Yetis are nothing more than Bullymongs with a different name.

Now, you just need to track down the train for Marcus, so follow the tracks nearby to a blocked tunnel, which will trigger some more snowmen to spawn. Go through the short tunnel and you’ll encounter some Snow Bandits here, who are not any different than their normal counterparts. You’ll happen upon a bridge that has been frozen over, so ignore it and drop down into the area below it, to find some more bandits. If you go to the dead end nearby, you’ll find a red loot chest, as well as quite a few Yetis and snowmen.

Head back to the little encampment with the bandits and find the trail that leads upward, where you’ll find Marcus’ train being stolen by some bandits. Clear them all out, including the Badass Yeti pulling the train and possibly a Goliath, then you’ll need to clear the ice from the bridge nearby. Thankfully, all you have to do is shoot each piece of ice from the bridge, then the train will start moving, as long as you’re close to it.

Make sure you open the presents, as they usually contain a lot of money and sometimes even Eridium!

Eventually, the train will stop due to Tinder Snowflake creating an ice blockage, then will send his minions to attack you. There will be quite a number of snowmen and bandits here, so keep fighting them until you’re given the clear and the train will bust through the ice. When it reaches the town, dump the coal as instructed and turn the power back on, then go and talk to Timothy in the town, who wants you to kill Snowflake. You should be able to find the trail that will lead to the frozen lake, where you will find some bells on the opposite end, upon ringing them, will summon Tinder Snowflake.

Boss: Tinder Snowflake¶

Snowflake can be quite a challenging boss, especially if you’re not well-equipped. The first thing you will notice is that he can burrow underground, similar to Threshers, but his head will be sticking out a bit. Unfortunately, you can’t damage him while he’s underground and he will move pretty quickly, chasing you and then popping up, dealing some nice damage. One nice spot to go to avoid this attack (and a few others of his) is the little cave by where you dropped into the arena.

Besides burrowing, Snowflake can toss a large snowball at you, which will spawn one of the smaller snowmen, in addition to dealing damage. He can also take a snowball and hit it with his cane, like a golf ball, although this doesn’t seem to spawn a normal snowman. To add on to his attacks, he can throw his candy cane into the ground, where it will explode, and he also has a frost breath attack. One more attack he can do is swing his cane around and slam it on the ground, sending you into the air.

Snowflake is invincible when hes underground (left). The cave where you dropped into the arena (right) makes for a nice, safe haven.

The main thing you will want to keep in mind in this battle is to avoid killing the small snowmen, as they will be useful if you happen to go down and need a Second Wind. Of course, Snowflake seems to spawn the frost breath attack when you’re down, making it hard to aim. If you want an easier time with this battle, simply stay in the cave, where the only attack seems like it can reach you is the frost breath. Aim for his head, as it’s a critical hit spot and he’ll go down in no time.

After finally bringing Tinder Snowflake down, wait until you can grab his hat, which will finish him off for good. Since Marcus seems to be in a good mood, he’ll reward you by letting you grab some stuff from his train. Head back to town and open up the train to find all kinds of goodies. Pick up whatever you want (you can take it all if you wanted), then talk to Timothy to end the mission.

You are able to go back anytime to fight Snowflake again, which will also spawn the train afterwards. This is a fantastic way to get some nice gear and tons of Eridium!

Borderlands 2

when I walk up to him to try and get a quest to take me there, he says come back and talk with me later?? Is there a prerequisite quest?

His fast travel is at the Dust area, to the south (in the fast travel network).

2 observations about that DLC

1) The red chest on top of the train carriage appears only once. Why cant we farm it later?
2) The red chest on top of the bridge near the coal furnace is the most difficult red chest to reach in the entire game. (Happy to be corrected, but Im pretty thats right) In fact, apart from rocket jumping sal, Im not sure any other character can actually get to it.
If there is a way, please let me know!

How so? Excluding the reset option in UVHM, how can i redo the dlc over and over?

How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day is a Headhunter Pack for Borderlands 2. It is a winter holiday-inspired DLC that provides a new skin and head to unlock for each class and a small story culminating in a boss fight.

The DLC can be accessed by Fast Traveling to Marcus’s Mercenary Shop, located within Frost Bottom, where the first mission will automatically begin. The level is set when first visited, but in Normal Mode is at least 15 and at most 35.

Contents

Story

Marcus has recently sold a large shipment of guns, but it’s gone missing. He enlists the Vault Hunters to search the nearby frozen town of Gingerton to find them. Along the way Snowman attacks become more common until finally meeting their leader, Mister Tinder Snowflake.

Missions

The DLC includes one story mission and a side mission.

Areas

Frost Bottom, a medium-sized winter environment, is the only new location for this DLC. The area is the location of Marcus’s Mercenary Shop and the nearby village of Gingerton.

Characters

Enemies

This pack reskins and renames several enemies from Borderlands 2.

And adds one original new enemy:

Bosses

New Skins and Heads

This pack includes a new head and skin for each class. The head is obtained as a mission reward from Get Frosty. The skin is obtained as a drop from His Adbominableness, Mister Tinder Snowflake, Esquire. The boss may need to be farmed as the skin is not guaranteed to drop the first time that it is defeated.

Borderlands 2: How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day Walkthrough

Seasonal festivities are one of the major inspirations behind the Headhunter series. In the third Headhunter add-on, How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day, snowmen, holiday jingles and an ugly holiday sweater await in the snowy village of Gingerton all while a train full of Marcus’s guns goes missing. This forces Marcus to enlist the Vault Hunters to search the town for the lost shipment – leading to a showdown against the terrifying Abominable Mister Tinder Snowflake.

To really get you in the holiday spirit, the game developers added in a bandit singing his version of “Carol of the Bells” which was written and performed by audio guy Raison Varner. (You may also recognize Raison as the voice of other certain bandits.) The singing is pretty funny. Oh and you may want to bring some friends…

Part 1: Marcus’s Mercenary Shop & Frost Bottom

Welcome to the Borderlands 2: How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day walkthrough! The creator — Gearbox Software designer Josh Jeffcoat — will be your voice-over commentator showing you around the game’s opening areas.

“Get Frosty” Objectives: Take Marcus’s magic wardrobe to Frost Bottom. Head to Gingerton to find out what happened to Marcus’s train shipment. Kill the snowmen and find the train.

Note: This Add-on DLC introduces Christmas-themed lootable items, such as: Present boxes that contain money, eridium or ammo, as well as Christmas-themed weapons chests.

Random Tip: If you knock a goliath’s helmet off, watch out — he’ll take more damage from headshots, but he’ll level up from killing his former allies.

Part 2: Full Playthrough Up To Mister Tinder Snowflake Boss Fight

Next, we have the full playthrough on Supreme Vault Hunter Madness difficulty mode up to the Mister Tinder Snowflake boss fight!

Get your extra gameplay tips from King Gothalion & Bahroo on how to beat all the new Yeti & Snowmen enemies.

Reward: How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day Heads & Skins

New character heads and skins will also be available for each character as symbols of your triumph – provided you’re successful in completing this DLC, that is.

To be specific: Once you finally defeat Mister Tinder Snowflake, you’ll unlock a big ol’ snowman head for your Vault Hunter. Each character class gets a different expression as well as a festive new character skin, including a Santa outfit for Salvador the Gunzerker and an ugly sweater for Krieg the Psycho.

Take a look at all you’ll get in this video.

PS: Good news! Gearbox have promised to give us more Headhunter add-ons early next year! 😀

Thanks to IGN & King Gothalion for the walkthrough videos.

Borderlands 2: How Marcus Saved Mercenary Day выйдет на следующей неделе

Алексатор беда 49 рублей жалко

Алексатор Какая разница? Это всё сюжетные кампании и дополнительные герои, а не шкурки для собак. Да, есть и шкурки, но их никто не заставляет покупать, ибо и без них прекрасно играется.

ДЛС для этой игры уделывают только ДЛС к симсу,общей ценой 10000р.

Так это же dlc уже как- бы вышло?

3 бакса за это DLC многовато. Я прошёл его 2 раза, проходится оно минут за 20 максимум. Попинал ботов, зввёл поезд, шлёпнул снеговика. Мне кажется 100 рублей за 20 минут игры жирновато.

ну разве это плохо, что разработчики постоянно подогревают интерес к игре у поклонников, прося за это совсем уж немного? Тем более, что игра и без лицухи работает в кооперативе. Не угодить вам.

конца краю этим DLC нету

и вновь продолжается дойка

StepnoDjamal у меня она стоит с тех пор как купил а проходить по новой на этой неделе начали вчетвером весело короче

Зэр Аэль а в ранних версиях симулятора все длс бесплатны (потому что это любительские моды,а не длс)

StepnoDjamal А зачем ты спешил проходить? Подождал бы!

Это как? Быть на стороне плохих что ли?

Meh1983 бро, я намекал не на цену, а на общее количество этих длс к борде 2.

Это еще нормальная за длк. Скоро будет торрент эдишон ждем)

Алексатор работают ребята и молодцы да и DLC вроде-бы не чего

Дойка,готи выпусли и хватит,а то клепаю каждый месяц.

saa0891 а еще это один из немногих шутеров, убивающих своей унылостью в сингле. И да, я не собираюсь покупать это дерьмо, чтобы у разрабов провальных чужих появились деньги. Но ты давай, спонсируй их действия по убийству очередных игровых серий.

Так и не прошёл, быстро надоела, да и длинная слишком
