I'm a little disappointed that Gearbox went with yet another brown, rusted-out motif. Most of the new zones have a junkyard or factory vibe. The town of Oasis is just one of many locations in the new add-on. The hulking remains of ocean freighters slouch precariously on rocky ledges. Dangerous sandworms attack anyone who ventures onto the cracked hardpan. Even though there’s a nautical pirate theme, the area is a dried up husk of a town. I live near the Salton Sea, so the desecrated tourist town of Oasis has a special place in my heart. Then by all means, start that respawn train. The pirate enemies scaled down to around level 14 or 15, so make sure you’ve at least made it to level 14 before adventuring in Oasis. Our duo of level 11’s got worked, though. Badass characters even scaled above the level 50 cap to remain challenging. The pirates scaled perfectly to my party's level 24 and 50 builds. I hosted with level 11, 24, and 50 characters. The enemies and loot of “Captain Scarlett” scale with whoever is hosting the game.
Packaged with some silly writing, it delivers. The DLC promises more XP, more Badass challenges, and more glorious guns. Pick up a mission, travel to a new area, shoot and loot, compare your new stuff to your old stuff, annoy your co-op partner because you’re taking too long to compare purple shotguns, sell the crap, and move on to the next mission. The pirate-themed plot revolves around Captain Scarlett and a secret treasure (shocker). You can access the town of Oasis via the Fast Travel system as soon as you download the content. If you’re enjoying your Pandoran experience, you’ll enjoy this. Ned or Moxxi, as opposed to General Knoxx or Handsome Jack. Captain Scarlett herself is entertaining, but she’s not a strong as the central characters from other DLC’s. Feel free to dive in wherever you are in the main campaign. The story of “Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty” stands on its own. I blasted through it in two nights and I’m going to tell you what’s good, and what’s not so good. Since this is the first real piece of paid DLC, some of you may be on the fence about picking it up. It’s the first campaign expansion included in the four part Borderlands 2 Season Pass. “Captain Scarlett and Her Pirate’s Booty” is the second piece of Borderlands 2 DLC. She was included as a free bonus with all pre-orders. The first content drop added a new playable character, Gaige the Mechromancer. Borderlands 2 has been out for a little over a month, and the role playing shooter has already received two impressive add-ons.
