Here is a great site for creating class builds. Here is another site trying to collect all the different types of guns in the game, so far it has a huge database.

For people new to the game and some experienced players these tips may help you out…

Sell… Sell… Sell…

Pick up everything you can, when you hover over an item you can see how much it is worth which is a good way to know what to drop out of inventory if needed. Remember where vending machines are located and visit often.

Time is A Factor

All mobs will spawn back in time so keep this in mine. If there is an area which was a descent xp spot remember to visit it again. Also after a long mission you may find yourself fighting your way back to town so remember to save some ammo.

Guns

As you use weapons you become more proficient with them gaining some nice bonuses. I tend to keep a sniper, assault rifle and shot gun close at hand. Depending on your class mix it up, drop the sniper if you don’t like long range pick up a bazooka!

Elemental

Some guns have elemental effects! The only issue is your regular damage will suffer. This is ok but I wouldn’t recommend x1 guns anything x2 and up is a lot better and more likely worth it.

Fire is good against flesh and Shock guns are good against shields. One an enemy loses their shield they tend to be easy pickings.

Shields

There are many different shields in the game to use. There are elemental resistance one which I don’t find to useful, ones which cause an explosion when its depleted again not that useful and than ones which heal over time those are the best in my opinion.

Grenades

Like to make things go BOOM! Grenades are good for that and there are a ton of mods in the game to make your grenades do different things. Loike steal health from the enemy, stick to them, catch them on fire and teleport to their location.

Ammo

Collect everything you can sometime you may get desperate and have to use a different type of gun than you’re not used to so having ammo for that gun can’t hurt. Upgrade your storage of the weapons you most commonly use and if you have extra cash upgrade some of the others.

Humans

Simple, aim for the head! This is the weakest part and if your lucky you may pop one or two!

Skags

These are the dog like creatures. Wait for them to open their mouths and you will get critical hits like crazy. This will take time to get used to but if done right you will take down the most badass skags in the game.

Well I hope these tips will help some players out there and maybe attract some new players to the game. Its available on almost every video game format so grab a copy and start shooting!
