What is a Golden Key? What does it do?
The Golden Key is a rare item that allows you to open a special Golden Chest (pictured above) in the friendly city of Sanctuary. Exactly what sort of loot the Golden Chest contains will change every time it's opened, but the loot 1) should always be of very rare (purple) quality and 2) will share the same level as the character that opened the chest.

Once a Key is used to to open the Golden Chest, that Key is gone for good. Any Golden Keys you may have will be available to any of the characters you've created, so use them wisely.

How can I get a Golden Key?
There are a variety of ways to get a Golden Key, the easiest of which is to create and link a SHiFT account from within Borderlands 2 as detailed here: http://forums.gearboxsoftware.com/sh...84#post2572284

Keep an eye on GearboxSoftware.com and the Gearbox Software Forums as well as our Twitter and Facebook for word of additional opportunities to obtain Golden Keys.

I'm a lvl 15 Zer0 (haven't played that much) and I'm starting to wonder if I don't do any melee is it still worth it?

I do like the sniper aspect, but I find myself using pistols and smgs a lot of the time because of the amount of short range combat in the game.
