  This adds a new skill tree and a game mode. The game mode is essentially like a pubG map vs the AI, the map you're on has a shrinking safe zone on a timer - like pubG. In the game mode you have no abilities or such from your main play through and must find guns/shields/mods along the way, you start fresh everytime. It's just so incredibly poorly paced and unrewarding. The extra skill tree should have been part of the base game, the game mode should never have existed bundled with the skill tree. Upper management made a bad decision on this one.

  If you're like me, you probably saw the new skilltrees and thought "well I don't really care about the arms race, but I might as well buy very expensive skill trees, because they're going to give me more options!" It would be a shame, if Class Mods to support those skill trees would be included in a seperate DLC... WHICH IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY DID!!! I can't believe that there's one legendary class mod connected to those 4 skilltrees, which you can gain solely gain through the arms race mode. For normal class mods, like you gain for the other skilltrees, you have to buy the Directors Cut DLC as well. This DLC in itself is a scam. If you want really want these extra skilltrees, consider buying Season Pass 2 as a whole.

  Do NOT get this DLC. It adds 4 skill trees, one for each character. I got this DLC ONLY for one of those skill trees, and ended up not using it anyway. (It was Zane's, the Operative's, for reference.) It also adds an Arms Race gamemode. You spawn somewhere with no guns and no way of dealing damage besides three grenades, and you have to find guns. While avoiding enemies, who DO have guns. No action skills either, so you can't summon a mech or a drone or your pet or anything to help you deal with the enemies. Also, if you find any legendary weapons from killing something? Too bad, can't use it until you get it out of the gamemode! Can't have you actually doing the rest of this mission "EASILY" now can we, huh? I'll consider, MAYBE, changing my review if you let me bring friends into Arms Race without forcing them to also buy this DLC. Until you do that or make the DLC super-super-super cheap, this review stays at a negative. EDIT: Okay, so if you use game start to do ANYTHING except "Slam!" you don't start with a gun and a shield. And even if you do, you still gotta find the gun/shield chest. However with that gun/shield chest it's a lot simpler. ... That said, this DLC is not worth full price. Expert marketing tactic, pricing the dlc way higher than it should be so when it goes on sale people think "wow this dlc is cheaper than normal" instead of thinking "wow this dlc is now normal priced"

  Arms race is fun, but locking a enitre skill tree for all vault hunters behind a 15 dollar paywall is really shitty, get this on sale or in a bundle with all the dlcs, preferably all on sale too

  If you don't care about completing the B3 achievements, there is nothing in this DLC worth paying for or wasting your time. It's basically B3 in a Battle Royale format. Except you don't get to use your skill tree or weapons. I got this in a bundle so my cost is probably less than $2 and I still think that is over priced. $15 is an insane asking price. Sadly, if you want to 100% the game, you get the joy of having to grind out "extracting" weapons. Sometimes I wonder when Game Devs are making crap like this if they ever consider if something is fun or not. This isn't fun. It just feels like a cash grab.
