Let’s take a deep dive into Zane’s playstyle: Skill Trees, Synergies, Shortcomings, and Solutions

You will not convince me that Zane wasn't the result of them having zero ideas leftover after making the other 3 vault hunters. He is so incredibly boring and poorly thought out, and comparing his skill trees to the other VH skill trees is like night and day.

Why are T W O of his active skills basically just Axton Turret? And they both suck, and are only useful for proc'ing the buffs in the Hitman tree. The third skill is a shield? Wow very helpful and cool thanks.

Zane was the first character I played because my friends were already playing as the other characters. Got him to 50 and now I don't even want to play the game anymore because it was so boring getting him there. His only viable build just relies on wasting his action skills to get small damage buffs, and then running around shooting things. I could literally play CoD and do the same thing.

Sorry, but if you think Zane has personality and is a cool character, you're just wrong. He is as vanilla as it gets, perhaps the most boring playable character in Borderlands history. He would need a complete overhaul to fix him, including idk maybe making some of his skills actually related to BEING A HITMAN???????
