solo is ran on focus last I checked

bronze hound
#

pretty sure its ran on headhunter

vestal ibex
#

HH HF enters the chat

flint wave
#

there's still ar sections

bronze hound
#

fuck do you mean ar sections lmfao its speedrunning

tawdry flare
flint wave
bronze hound
tawdry flare
#

you can't hh entire capitol last part need focus

#

everything else can be hh in capitol legendary

bronze hound
#

well in general you cant compare generic play to speedrunning

flint wave
#

obviously not using focus in heroic lol

tawdry flare
#

solo legendary and solo legendary speedrunning are two different things

vestal ibex
#

Speed running is just where you go nyoooom out loud and have your arms behind you while running right?

flint wave
#

it's just running but faster yeah

vestal ibex
flint wave
#

and no they dont

bronze hound
#

lol

hazy valve
# bronze hound lol

Quick question: if ur using dodge city holster, u basically want max headshot damage right?

bronze hound
#

you want max hsd for hh

bronze hound
#

was referring to my hhf build

hazy valve
#

If u wanna use regulus

flint wave
#

can you even reach 150% hsd with hhf?

bronze hound
#

yes

#

155

flint wave
#

providence or no

bronze hound
#

no

vestal ibex
#

Isn't it way more?

bronze hound
#

155 with memento*

#

165 w/o

hazy valve
#

Cause with obvious headshot damage amplifying dodge city which does already 1000% max, then uses regulus with its perk of converting 400% of that damage into an explosion

#

Sounds pretty neat lol

vestal ibex
#

I forget. Exactly.

bronze hound
#

i think lower than that with hhf

#

could be wrong

vestal ibex
bronze hound
#

i was referring to m870 hsd my bad

vestal ibex
#

ahhh

bronze hound
#

oops lol

flint wave
#

I thought so

vestal ibex
#

165% if I had a perfect mod.

flint wave
#

I was like where tf does the other 50% come from

vestal ibex
#

Shotguns have some innate HSD

#

All weapons do.

onyx sage
#

though, the lowest out of all the categories

bronze hound
#

50% is base from just existing

#

same with chd

vestal ibex
#

Shotgun base HSD is 45%

onyx sage
#
  • 90% from hsd gear mods and attributes, + 20% from watch
#

and you barely hit 155%

hazy valve
#

Now, imagine all the factors, max headshot damage and dodge city with the 1k added damage, then add some crit into it lol

vestal ibex
onyx sage
blissful rampart
flint wave
#

doesn't seem to do anything to head hunter talent tho its still been 8x damage

#

the time I was using d50

vestal ibex
blissful rampart
#

like you can slap dodge city onto any red build and it will be just fine tbh

onyx sage
#

d50 has 100% innate hsd so you're not getting less than 150% even if you try lol

vestal ibex
#

165% if I had the extra .5% on my mod

blissful rampart
#

hell even some skill builds (turret drone build) it good too (they can stack HSD instead of haste, and gain a pocket nuke)

flint wave
#

I heard dch striker was a thing

blissful rampart
#

it is

onyx sage
#

it is a thing yes

hazy valve
#

That's interesting, so hsd isn't a requirement for dodge city, bet

bronze hound
#

i think dch striker is dumb

blissful rampart
#

like your average dps is lower but you gain a pocket nuke, well worth the trade off (kinda same trade off for all red builds)

hazy valve
#

Wait so the "first shot" can be from skills too?

vestal ibex
hazy valve
#

Ooo that's wat u meant, ok

onyx sage
#

i don't run hsd mods on my m870 if i can help it

vestal ibex
#

f dat optimal range.

onyx sage
#

lmfao

flint wave
#

rip

vestal ibex
#

You are in their face with this build anyway.

#

I'm good with 11.2 meters cause if I'm using that shotgun I'm dang near barrel stuffing them most the time.

bronze hound
#

or 170

vestal ibex
#

wat?

bronze hound
#

cant remember

#

i meant total hsd

vestal ibex
#

165

#

I probably have an extra HSD mod on my main but I'm too lazy to stash and pull it over.

#

90 on gear
45 on shotguns
20 on watch
10 on shotgun mods
165 total

bronze hound
#

its not 45 on shotguns

#

im pretty sure its not at least

vestal ibex
#

Well it is

onyx sage
#

it is

blissful rampart
#

its on the sheet šŸ˜›

Once I'm over the 150hsd hh cap I run a reload speed or weapon handling mod on my m870

Eevee always ruining my hopes n dreams!

#

Ok about the HF Regulus build

#

Do you use dodge city Holster? And if so are you using the HF Backpack or Chest as your 4th HF pc?

bronze hound
#

Bp

real skiff
#

Oh yea, then perfect chainkiller as chest

bronze hound
#

Bp doubles the cc

real skiff
#

Everything rolled headshot? Then weapon handling+ headshot on the chest?

bronze hound
#

Yes

real skiff
#

Awesome. What talent and attributes on a m870 Am I looking for as well?

bronze hound
#

Pummel dttooc

real skiff
#

MVP thank you šŸ«¶šŸ½ I’ll send it tn if I can get it together by then!

#

One last question actually

#

Sharpshooter specialization I’m assuming?

magic pilot
#

I use firewall or gunner

#

You can use tech, gunner, firewall, sharpshooter

#

Mostly depends on what skills and directives

real skiff
#

Ahh Ty. I will see which one works best for me then.

#

@bronze hound can I send you my healer build in a little bit when I get on? I made it ages ago, not even sure what I have on it. It always seemed really good it heals people to full almost instantly. Just not sure if outsdated or not

onyx sage
#

can also send in here too

#

i am a harsher critic in some regards

slate wedge
#

i think it was a bug in the test server cause it doesnt work anymore

real skiff
#

In here lmfao, but like have him or someone tell me what’s outdated and what can be changed haha.

onyx sage
#

can do it right here and now, do it do it

real skiff
#

Alright give me a minute to log in

vestal ibex
#

I mean you could always follow the FI healer build in the spreadsheets.

real skiff
#

This was made in 2020 before I quit playing

vestal ibex
#

Change backpack to a setup and put a lefty on.

real skiff
#

Lefty? And set up backpack? What’s that

vestal ibex
#

They are named items. The lefty has perfect sledgehammer and the setup has perfect opportunistic. The lefty will proc perfect opp for you.

#

If you wanted to help further you'd change rav for scorpio.

#

You might think the backpack talent is super good but really you don't need nearly as much heals as you think. Most of the time you are better off going for a mix of skill haste/repair vs full repair.

real skiff
#

Ahhh so setup backpack will further increase my allies damage, stacking with future initiative

#

As long as they are shooting at who I hit, iirc on how opportunistic works

#

Never thought about combining those

vestal ibex
#

It's also more damage you'll deal too. The scorpio also provides a damage buff for you and your teammates.

#

Some CC too.

real skiff
vestal ibex
#

The lefty will allow you to fire nade thicc boi enemies for even more damage.

real skiff
#

Thank you that’s really good advice actually. Woulda never thought about combining those and playing a more aggressive healing style

vestal ibex
#

Yeah there are other little things that could provide benefits but they are situational and min maxing. Like tech vs survivalist is preference but you can get faraday and keep allies from EMP/shock effects if they are near your hive, but survivalist gives damage to status effected enemies and the fire nades are super good with sledgehammer.

onyx sage

okay just got back but basically what souless said

Is it better to use St. elmos engine with this build or use the backfire smg

Anyone know a good ironworks build?(any build will work with me)

Whats with the kneepads tho

real skiff
#

Excuse me what???? I haven’t even made the regulus build yet, was literally only testing it on my sniper build…. And holy shit šŸ˜‚

The pistol has higher base damage than some MMRs so im not surprised

want to double check, heard something yesterday that didn't sound right to me.

what is stronger in a raid Striker w Bag and chest, or Striker with Bag and Sacrifice?

tawdry flare
solar venture
#

huh kind of figured Sacrifie would always have a higher dmg output because of the survivability trade off

bronze hound
#

I think the number is botched

bronze hound
merry stone
#

oh can skorpion be used for damage builds?? or is it only a cc tank machine

bronze hound
#

Scorpio can be used with DPS but better to run rock n roll for striker

merry stone
bronze hound
#

You don't need cc if you don't have a skill issue

solar venture
#

if you can't aim for shit use Scorpio, if you're using scorpio make it into a support style build to help your team

merry stone
solar venture
#

doesn't need to be a tank build, even going something like Perfect Opportunistic Ongoing directive build works

bronze hound
#

Can't verify

#

When I get home I can

#

If stacking for either Striker, or for Heartbreaker,

AA12/Rock N Roll is best option to get to max stacks immediately

#

Currently working on a pure armor on kill build

vestal ibex
strange heath
#

I run an acs on my heartbreaker at the moment

Where the link of spreadsheet

tawdry flare
#

so actually it is 150stacks @bronze hound with obli

bronze hound
#

i was close

tawdry flare
#

2.0 striker at 100 stacks 1.25 from obli/normal glass Cannon 2.0*1.25=2.50

tawdry flare
bronze hound
#

you said glass cannon lol

#

you said glass cannon was worse unless 140+

tawdry flare
tawdry flare
bronze hound
#

if you can keep 140+ then striker, meaning striker better over 140 stacks

tawdry flare
solar venture
vestal ibex
#

How does damage matter? You one shot or dont?

#

It's a question of which is faster/more consistent.

tawdry flare
vestal ibex
#

Oh well if you aren't doing one shots sure.

solar venture
#

my initial question was about dps, Souless made it about one-shot builds

bronze hound
#

so game does striker actually outperform pgc

tawdry flare
solar venture
#

frankly I have no problem 1 shoting when I need to because its a team effort

bronze hound
tawdry flare
#

2.0*1.30 =2.60 = 160 stacks

hoary atlas
#

What happened if Use Catharsis + unbreakable+ Andrenaline rush

vestal ibex
tawdry flare
hoary atlas
#

Is that good for Solo PVP

#

Of these talents

tawdry flare
#

i am not the guy for pvp may try someone else

hoary atlas
#

I mean PVE

#

I use Gruppo with Adrenaline rush

tawdry flare

cause if you are doing that you are going 100% defensive

Thanks šŸ™šŸæ

solar venture
bronze hound
#

unfortunately if the company is self insured youre completely fucked for workers comp

solar venture
#

so final answer, the PGC build is weaker then full striker? this build is for kiting Boomer, just want to apply as much dmg as I can in a short amount of time

bronze hound
#

yes

#

for kiting 100% use striker chest

solar venture
bronze hound
#

thats good

solar venture
vestal ibex
solar venture
#

oh yeah, usually someone at 43-44 and burger

urban latch
#

There's really no reason to run pgc if your kiting

solar venture
#

you know I like to live dangerously Raucey

#

darwinian levels of dangerous

urban latch
solar venture
#

wait... did you just remove the cooldown by taking the holster on and off?

urban latch
#

Yep

#

Doing the same thing with elmos also resets it

solar venture
#

thats gotta be a bug

urban latch
#

It's a feature...

#

Technically you can also do the same thing hot swapping between Scorpio and Elmo if you don't want to use that feature

solar venture
#

its a feature like infinite medkits in PvP was

#

I'm more confused why so much Status, is the shocker punch effected by SE? if so Imperial Dynasty needs to go on strike infront of Massive Entertainments offices

urban latch
#

Yeah, status will increase the shock duration to be long enough to comfortably down him before he throws the grenade. And it's a feature like like plenty of other things we use in raids like nego on boomer

solar venture
#

fair enough, only real question is why Courior over an electrique bag, unless the build is being use for something else Creeping death doesn't become a factor

urban latch
#

Last piece doesn't really matter tbh

#

Technically you can do it with any build, the timing is just tighter

green dew
solar venture
#

kind of hard to charge focus while having Boss agro

solar venture
#

one build I have been playing around with, in preperation for the Tips rework is this

bronze hound
#

Ew

#

Swap backpack for airaldi at least

solar venture
#

for doing Sniper role for B4 IH, Dread Edict, paired with Hotshot gives you permanent 40% WD and 100% HSD and never has to reload because of Hotshot

solar venture
bronze hound
#

Doesn't matter gift or not

#

1 second aint gonna kill you

solar venture
#

plus doesn't stacking Base damage scale down as you stack red cores?

blissful rampart
#

everything does, since all stats are additive (except amps)

#

difference is HH scales off weapon damage so WD is a much greater boost then extra HSD.

green dew
solar venture
#

hmm fair

blissful rampart
#

BUT that said it really doesnt matter since HH carries at that point.

green dew
#

yeah lol

solar venture
#

tbf

#

dropping both of them for Airaldi and Chainkiller wouldn't really matter, since fully stacked Dread Edict + Hotshot I'll have 426% HSD

tawdry flare
solar venture
#

going for Chain killer + Airaldi will most likely do more damage then double Habsburg

merry stone
#

whats the best sniper/marksman rifle in game??

solar venture
merry stone
tawdry flare
solar venture
#

tbf most weapons are viable, and some people like the Mantis because you can spam Decoys to keep agro off you, but in a purely DPS argument Nemesis is king hands down

tawdry flare
#

you can't spam nemesis

solar venture
#

clearly you haven't been to the DZ šŸ˜„

solar venture
#

I was making a joke

vestal ibex
#

It's just a prank bro it's just a prank!

green dew
# merry stone nemi better than mantis??

depends, mantis can help you visually aim headshots clearly, nemesis has the highest damage per bullet in the game (contender is tac 50 signature weapon), you can use whatever sniper and see for yourself. In heroic, most enemies can be one shot by either of the sniper (bolt action) as long as you have decent sniper build

vestal ibex
green dew
#

yeah apparently thats always the case lmao

vestal ibex
#

I just hate when people are suggesting that stuff to new players. Like here make the hardest build possible with unicorns it's the best build.

merry stone
#

what is the prefered stat for sniper build??

green dew
#

hsd is easier to build for sniper build, especially if you want headhunter and also using a gearset

#

some people have partner it with CHC for crit chance, but i havent tried that because for me its useless

#

hsd and weapon handling is all you need unless you want hybrid sniper build

flint wave
#

100% weapon handling div2thumbsup

urban latch
#

Unless we are talking pvp, crit is basically useless on sniper/HH builds. Headshot damage and handling is what you want, ideally dtooc on your third weapon attribute

merry stone
#

does stability effect the scope drift??

urban latch
#

Yes. 100% stability means 0 sway

tawdry flare
#

nemisis need 12% stability instead of that 9.5chc

Hey guys!

A bit of a noobie here
I’m using airaldi and hunter pieces (for added smg and sniper rifle damage)

However this isn’t working out particularly well for me so far, so I want to replace the airaldi pieces with whichever are best for an assault rifle, then rid myself of the current smg and the sniper rifle and replace those with st Elmo’s assault rifle and a high rpm smg

Am I at least somewhat on the right track here or should I start over from scratch?

flint wave

Excluding exotics and DW

If you use tactical I would use fast hands

tawdry flare
#

i would advise for mpx cause that range and better accuracy is qol

merry stone
#

ar level range??

tawdry flare

vs 15-18 for most iirc

#

perfect outsider mpx beats famas at 30-40m range when proced but doesn't refresh otherwise i would use it

btw just me or does supersession mechanic ruin lmgs

Yes it does

supersession is crazy

Pestilence is an exception because the dmg ticks can stagger enemy's out of cover

#

I been using this for golden bullet

#

Switched to gunner

tawdry flare
#

@urban latch have you thought about using swap chain to buff sleipner reload

flint wave
#

steady handed on golden bullet petter

tawdry flare
#

i have to try it though

magic pilot
#

Makes it so you have enough ammo and accuracy to hit things when golden isn't active

urban latch
tawdry flare
flint wave
#

Ip grabber

magic pilot
#

Giving you the handling boost

#

So you empty out the slepnir then get a kill with swap chain, swap back and reload

easiest event in the game that's forbsure

unless you fight deceit hunter

is the meta for builds still just having like all reds or all blues i havent played in a while and i need to update my build

flint wave
#

majority reds

#

all reds is a suggestion

wise ravine
#

aight

blissful rampart
#

majority reds because armor scales poorly in pve

blissful rampart
#

the new LMG seems kinda good too, just cause of having higher base damage (seems to be about 54k vs 44k of normal MG5) although its talent is very weak though

#

so 2 new exos with bad talents but strong base stats / mods.

hexed steppe

Arent the best lmgs still trash compared to an ar šŸ¤”

blissful rampart

not trash but id say "meh" compared to Ar

#

Famas has base dps of 663k (no talent)
Iron lung has base ~720k (if its base damage is 54k which it seems to be, need to re-check on live)
Famas with strained takes it to ~723k base

This is my Reg Hazpro build for DZ. It only reaches 80% Hazpro. Which two pieces should I switch out for Yaal to achieve 100% pulse and Hazpro? (Switching 2 pieces out for Yaal I’d still need a 10% pulse resistance mod for 100% pulse resistance)

blissful rampart
#

assuming stacking HSD? swap out contractors and Prov, though not sure if that is a good build

flint field
#

Yeah everything is stacked for HSD/Hazpro. 210%HSD with Reg with 80%Hazpro where I’m sitting now.

# magic pilot Thoughts?

Pretty nice. Have made the same but as a shotgun build. Is it worth losing 25% chance on efficient for more dmg?

magic pilot
#

Probably

blissful rampart
#

hmm id think since its a build all about burst LD (mostly) id swap out for dps chest talent, maybe a few less blues?

magic pilot
#

I was thinking 6 blue since no unbreakable or ad rush

blissful rampart
#

especially since group play.

magic pilot
#

You thought the opposite <more dmg take less dmg

blissful rampart
#

hu?

#

like LD is all about run in with stacks to burst down, then swap to continue the fight with the other guys alive (pretty much).

so full blues + defensive chest talent seriously hinder that goal.

gentle lichen
#

This is how i did mine

#

Ignore sharpshooter

I thought 1.8 since I have no ad rush I can't take as much

thats why you have the group to back you up

im not saying NO blues, just slightly less

magic pilot
#

I gotcha

gentle lichen
#

Add coyote's?

magic pilot
#

I have an intimidate chest and ad rush bp same brands and attributes for dz south stair build

blissful rampart
#

like since you are running LD, focus more towards that Burst down goal, while people in your group help focus to keep you alive

magic pilot
#

I see what you mean

#

Yea coyotes probably worth it

blissful rampart
#

for tweaking, start with just swaping chest talent and test from there

#

oh also yea coyotes well worth for that 25 chd

#

oh also maybe go firewall + swap to dps chest talent. and thats all (test from there)

magic pilot
#

Yea if I change chest talent I'd run firewall

blissful rampart
#

i hear tardigrade is decent in DZ?? maybe have someone in group run that to cover your lack of D?

magic pilot
#

We have 1 healer usually

gentle lichen
magic pilot
#

If not healer its cavalier

gentle lichen
#

Tardi is good if you're far away from your teammates

#

But efficient really works when in close range

#

Can do medkit pushes and such

blissful rampart
#

Cavalier for that anti group Hzd?

magic pilot
blissful rampart
#

ah 3pc

magic pilot
#

This is my version when I run it for my group

blissful rampart
#

wait nm 4

gentle lichen
# magic pilot

Isn't the bag really good cause it cuts down on the charge time by half?

blissful rampart
#

also with that LD burst build, Unwavering Vector as your 2nd (instead of Mp7) might be worth it. your swapping after LD any ways so it procs unwavering and vector still has high burst + gets that boost

blissful rampart
#

backpack gets you max charge in 5s instead of 10

#

5s difference seems huge in pvp imho

gentle lichen
#

Yeah and it makes the cavalier more consistent

blissful rampart
#

^^

#

like IMHO the only reason i can see Cav being good is for that Hzd pro sharing. outside of that its crap tbh

magic pilot
#

I'll try it out

blissful rampart
#

so 2x on the uptime and speed of that talent seems super strong

magic pilot
#

Haven't noticed a problem with it yet

#

Just no dmg lol

gentle lichen
blissful rampart
#

you are running Cav.. you already have no damage lol

gentle lichen
#

But 5 seconds really limits the enemy's ability to capitalise on the downtime

gentle lichen
blissful rampart
#

like i dont PVP but can still do build craft for it šŸ˜›

#

also yea imho if running Cav, go full in on that Group support idea, since you got no damage any ways with it

gentle lichen
#

So unfortunate they put repair skills on the gearset

#

Makes me think if i can heal with it

#

But i do wanna attempt making perfectly efficient/healer build with hive+chem

magic pilot
#

I'll swap chest to the perfect efficient chest and yaahl mask

gentle lichen
#

Remember that the hazpro shared to your teammates also adds to the hazpro they got from the watch

#

So you'll try to aim for 80%

blissful rampart
#

eh well kinda depends. they will become immune but you wont

#

since you will be at 80% not breaking that 90 point.

gentle lichen
#

What matters most is that you share that to your teammates but true you can add an extra 10% for your own so you don't die

blissful rampart
#

cant share if dead šŸ˜›

gentle lichen
blissful rampart
#

oh bahaha

magic pilot
#

I go for 90

gentle lichen
#

That's how i run the cavalier

#

Just gotta find that everyday carrier with hazpro and armor regen

magic pilot
#

No dmg at all tho

#

That's why I run LD

gentle lichen
#

Yeah I'm literally just support

magic pilot
#

I had a 1v3 clutch with the setup I run cause of LD

blissful rampart
#

is LD damage even on support builds though?

#

ah

sturdy flower
#

i haven't played since y2 i have no idea what the good pve builds are now

blissful rampart
#

in that case run LD and Pest no? so you have burst damage and support damage with the dots.

hexed steppe
gentle lichen
hexed steppe
#

thats true, but the duration and 1% regen isnt really a be all end all thing. you could run crit @ 48% instead of 30 and still be immune to everything yourself

#

its just a thought anyways. i kinda see mod slots a waste for specific status resistance when a single roll or brand can replace all

gentle lichen
magic pilot
#

I have a pvp build that gives 1.15m armor to your team

#

More if you expertise

hexed steppe
#

this is for dz right? i dont see how less damage is good. you can stack up on npcs and then swap when its ready, leaving the electric rounds for when you need to status something.. thinking about it you could be at 54% chc actually since you wouldnt have a roll tied up for the regen

magic pilot
#

Bonus armor

hexed steppe
#

but im also not a pvp'er so take it all with a grain of salt ig. jmho is all šŸ»

gentle lichen
#

Crits are like 50k at best

hexed steppe
#

the mods could also be flexed to haste if thats the case

#

emp sticky i see, but what type of chem heal or riot?

gentle lichen
#

Sticky for stagger or skills

magic pilot
#

Helps with support aspect

hexed steppe
#

i run stuff different from what people think sometimes as well so if it works, rock the shit out of it šŸ‘

gentle lichen
#

But yeah the addition of skill haste is an interesting insight

hexed steppe
#

yeah and probably even less of a problem when they rework some of the status in dz

hazy steeple
#

I'm excited to see where div2 goes in the future, with all the status effect gear/brand sets+exotic(s?) being added in.
plus grenades too. Intriguing times we live in.

magic pilot
#

Grenades already play a decent roll in pvp with sledgehammer

#

It's super common on large fights to see cluster and fire nades getting tossed around

gentle lichen
hazy steeple
#

Sledgehammer and other such gear is actually what I was referring to, but yeah it's nice to see them getting used in endgame stuff.

hazy valve
magic pilot
#

It's gonna be interesting to see how status effects play into the incursion considering almost all the gear and weapons we've gotten in recent seasons has been status effects

#

My guess is maybe a boss deals some sort of status combo as main attack but they only takes dmg when they are under a status

gentle lichen
#

When foundry dropped was it used in iron horse? I have next to zero knowledge about raids/incursions

bronze hound
#

Problem is it had no hazpro so it kinda sucked

#

But it's all anyone had for tank builds xD

gentle lichen
#

Looking at the gearsets/brands they gave us you'd assume the incursion is more about explosives/status effects

#

Might cavalier work?

bronze hound
deft shoal
#

probably wrong chat but i wanted to know how long before i can make actual builds other than just throwing on the best gear score thing i have? im running through the black tusk invasion for the first time and im starting to notice the need for a build. im still brute forcing everything. just curious how long it will actually take to get into the meat and potatoes of buildcrafting.

You're not gonna pro determined all the time with a Rifle unless you are on normal/hard difficulty.

Not perfect since it's on a soso weapon. M1a with rifleman if you consistently hit headshots would be solid though

none of them, because you don't compare them

i haven't played in years but it feels like glass cannon / full red crit builds got nerfed

It didn't

they never got nerfed, but most of them use a shield and it got nerfed

sturdy flower
#

ah alright, I just don't remember stuff on challenging or legendary taking this long to kill before but it has been a while so probably just me

#

maybe it's my guns idk

hazy steeple
#

it could be your build itself.
What are you running exactly?

sturdy flower
#

I have full providence defense for the crit boosts and yeah glass cannon on my chest rig

#

i don't remember what my backpack talent is atm

#

but it's just all red modifiers either crit damage or crit chance

#

gunner is my only max spec rn so I end up using mostly ARS and Rifles

#

usually a chameleon or an m4 i have that gives more crit damage on a crit hit

#

I've missed like 3 years of named items and exotics lol

magic pilot

Chameleon sucks that's why lol

Is 48% chc enough for an AR w/ coyote?

i'm not sure what the usual pve build is now

I'm thinking of ditching glass cannon cus it's getting me killed when most of my damage comes from crits anyways

Glass buffs your crits so not sure what you mean

#

Hey! If I were to get the Eagle Bearer how would it affect my build- positively/ negatively?

stiff orbit
#

and why wouldn’t you want to run the ND backpack or chest piece at least.

past gazelle
#

Bc the closer chest gives me armor on kill since I need some survivability while the fox kneepads give me dmg to target out of cover

#

I still get 4pc negotiations due to my bag also and this also unlocks accuracy for the Kneepads too

fickle light
#

you'd get a lot more out of a different bag

urban latch
#

The chest you don't want 99% of the time, and the backpack is optional. But ninjabike and your high end choices are not helping

stiff orbit
past gazelle

What high end stuff and bags do you recommend?

youll want high end ceska obliterate chest as well

hexed steppe
limpid dew
#

yup I need to look for a chest soon, how much crit hit damage do i need?

#

crit hit chance is capped at 60% from what i am seeing

patent fossil
#

As much as you can fit while maintaining max chc

hexed steppe
#

yeah you might even bring it down to low/mid 50's since you have coyote. ceska offers best chest because you can roll everything with crit damage (@ full watch) , and mods crit damage. and youll have good crit chance with just the weapon mods chc, and the 2 secondary rolls chc (coyote and chest)

limpid dew
#

ohh i see the +10% crit hit chance on that set bonus, super nice

Is the ravenous talent with the explosion based off of explosive damage or CHD?

But I'm also a nego or headhunter bum so I dont really use smg ever. Ar rifle mmr for me 99.99% of the time šŸ»

thin patrol
hexed steppe
#

But it is possible not to proc, right?

Also with a team those chances go down even further...
If the talent was slightly different like procing if one of the last range of shots (say 10shots )were a crit it would be a lot better.
with max chc being 60% I dont see that being a crit on 90% kills...

I'll stick with something that is procing 100% like strained/optimist/fast hands for weapons like that

thin patrol

Yes but you have 10 sec to get a kill with crit and u get a new buff

Also range and open world with a group are 2 different things

chest and bp striker with it will be so insanr

tawdry flare

1875 rpm with striker 31.25 round per sec 1.6s to fire 50 rounds and iirc 1.5s reload

#

so i would avoid with striker but hf is gonna be great

slate wedge
tawdry flare
#

acs is faster if it comes to stacks

slate wedge

and the reload is really good

tawdry flare

the problem is range

as for all smgs

hf is better with this one

Its gonna be more meme than gamechanger. Something like elmo will still be the goto

overall the st. elmo will be more consistent but the ouro will be best for fast missions clears, insane dps and a run and gun playstyle

slate wedge

It ain't headhunter... so I doubt itll get a lot of speedrun action

it just is a best in class smg

SMGs aren't as versatile as ARs but they are better at what they are besy

slate wedge

close range ARs get beaten by Shotguns and SMGs

mid range ARs get beaten by Rifles

long range ARs get beaten by MMRs

still ARs are probably thr best class in the game

hexed steppe

if i want close range i will pick Scorpio/regulus

slate wedge

sure it wont beat st. elmo after 20 meters

i wanted to add it to the message before

slate wedge
hexed steppe
#

So personally I'm a mid to long range player. SMG has little value to me regardless of its strengths.
Ar/rifle or mmr/ar.
Other than briefly running HF a while I dont even bother with smg.
If I'm close, it's because im running cc and I'll be on a scorpio šŸ’Æ

Well you can. And also if npc is in an area you cant access like behind the threshold of a spawn door or on a wall with no access, stuff like that will drop the trophy on you instead of on the ground. Same happens on memento eclipse with stuff burning in the same type of areas

There are a lot of times you can hit NPCs in those areas if you know the spawns
