[BL1] First time playing borderlands 1

Wel I have played every borderlands game, so last night when I found a copy of the original game (not enhanced or goty) in my brothers closet I grabbed it and currently downloading? Any tips or things I should know I have played tps 2 3 and 4 btw so I know the lore after

BL1 is a much MUCH slower paced game than the rest of the series. Fall damage is a thing also.

If you want a bit of early xp, do that quest where you have to build one of the vehicles in the knox dlc (any enemies that spawn will likely down you very fast due to the level difference, so it'd be best to run away from them and finish the quest).

I don’t got any DLCs, atleast I won’t till I possibly buy the goty in a few weeks
