Huh. After Borderlands 3, it turns out you weren't entirely wrong about the lightsuit. Sure, Maliwan DOES have heavy armor, but they do also have guys who blur towards you or out of the way of your attacks.

What fun!

"Deathtrap made an approving sound, and raised an arm, fingers coiling into a fist. Gethtrap looked toward its fellow synthetic, compared with existing databases on communication gestures, and raised a corresponding arm, fingers curling. With a clang of metal on metal, their mechanical knuckles collided."

*'Knuck if you Buck' surges in the background*

You forgot to bold an E at the end of "Traverse" right at the start.

is niftu cal going to inspire cult? like the children of the firehawk, only on illium?

O_O

Just to let you know, this story is so goddamn good man. All the wonderfulness of Mass Effect combined with the batshit crazy of Borderlands? Match made in heaven. I hope you pick this up again at some point. Also, the world needs more Torgue-Urdnot.

When a species is so totally insane that a Krogan is the voice of restraint and reason you know you have interesting priorities

NIFTU CAL, BIOTIC GOD all will kneel before him for he will devour the universe and set on fire the foundations of all creation!

This is the first fanfiction where Udnia is a total badass and completely awesome

God damn I wish there was more of this. It's an excellent balance between balls-to-the-walls ridiculousness and in-depth world building occasionally interspersed with surprisingly hard hitting serious moments. Maybe when Borderlands 3 comes out it'll inspire more of this kind of stuff.
It also helps that this has Gaige in her full unadulterated glory.

That last scene was an excellent tribute to B2

love to see more
even if it hasn't been updated in ages
love the story

Okay, I discovered this fanfic yesterday, and, I thought ‘This fanfic is insanity incarnate and it is glorious’... then I got to this Chapter.

Gaige, Deathtrap, and Gethtrap are now my top favorite group out of everyone running around in this fic, Mr. Torgue and NIFTU CAL, BIOTIC GOD coming in at a very close second. I especially like how they pretty much accidentally the entire Virmire facility without anyone ever realizing what Saren was doing there, as shown in the next chapter. Saren’s and Sovereign’s reactions to this fact are equally priceless.

Saren curls up into the fetal position and weeps the loss of his Krogan army. Sovereign becomes one of Gaige’s quadrillions of subscribers.

Awesome work on this fic so far, dude. I look forward to seeing how the madness and badassery continues.

Perhaps the most hilarious actionified crossover I've ever read. Kudos. Also, having fun imagining Shepard with Lilith's personality.

If this was any funnier, I would die laughing. The fusion of Mass Effect and Borderlands shouldn't work, but it does. Shepard herself being a Siren made sense, but her utterly unconcerned madcap arrival in a War Zone and the fact she proceeded to fight her way out like it was any other day at the office? That's such a Borderlands moment. Saren nearly fainting at the Virmire facility taking a pounding and Legion asking for specs on the same girls work when she upgrades him because she can? Sovereign proceeding to subscribe to her Echo Channel? Maya asking if the plan is really to fight their way on and off a planet while up against the entire population? I can't decide if this is a ME or Borderlands moment, because we all know Shepard would do it as well, Siren or not... This is the best ME Borderlands crossover I've read, full stop. Please continue it someday.
