if I can't get gear here...

where is a good place for me to farm to try and get better gear? I just got a new SMG from Moxxxi. (I get one every time I lvl)
I am about to go to the bunker and free angel etc... so I need a place only a little bit before that.

LMK

can try to get the bee shield from guy in badlands hunter hellquest or w/e his name is

yeah... I think I'm a mission or 2 before that part.
Its in the arid nexus or w/e right? the radio tower guy? not there just yet. I think I'll just farm a couple legendary and hope they'll do.
I was trying to get through Playthrough 2 fast after taking my time and doing everything the first go round. Now, I think I missed out on good gear.
