Borderlands Pre-Sequel Didn’t Unlock True Vault Hunter Mode

Legendaries appear in the vendor at a much higher rate than BL2 - I got three at Level 15 alone. Legendary drops from random enemies are probably as low as they were in BL2...like way low. IF you know what boss drops the one you are looking for AND that boss respawns (many in the TPS do not), then you can farm him/her/it. I wouldn't waste money trying for getting a legendary from the slots -- again, very low odds it they are same as BL2 -- use that money to buy one from a vendor when it appears. It will.

The main difference that you will notice is the inclusion of Tiny Tina into Athena's narration of the story. The enemies will of course be scaled up based on the area that you are playing in (scaled to your level in UVHM) and some will have shields or armour now. The loot will be of higher quality but RNG is RNG, i have found the easiest way to get a legendary you want is just by farming the sentinel or Iwajira for a slightly higher chance of a legendary that you don't want, then hitting the grinder. on the quest side of things the jumps in levels between the quest are a fair bit steeper than in BL2 and you will need to do side quests or farming bosses instead of simply relying on quests alone to level up. When it says level up higher, it means you will level up faster than in the first play through as you can level up past the recommended level (if you enjoy killing enemies for a measly 1xp. That is about it for TVHM.
