[hexed steppe]

No. Blueprint becomes available to buy after mask is obtained from the exo cache

Just keep spamming exo caches, anything you dont need will be a good exo component

[magic pilot]

It's not great but any AR build

For striker ceska/coyotes

[marsh pilot]

i reached lvl 40 and i want to make a tank build with half-decent dmg. Does anyone have a link to a build for me pls ?

i looked in the spreadsheet and youtube and there are so many.

and i mostly play solo

not really planning to play with groups

or a good DPS build with decent survivalbility

[frank bison]

@marsh pilot have you looked on YouTube for so builds?

[marsh pilot]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jcNJNujP878&t=1104s

this one for example. Is that good to start with after hitting lvl 40 ?

or this one...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xrcaGX3qUdQ&t=651s

[frank bison]

@marsh pilot you want to look for one that's got survivability and damage to start with. That's what I did after trying out builds

[scenic hornet]

heartbreaker is the way to go

If i play in team, heartbreaker 2 blue core, 4 red with coyote if you have

mine only 1 blue since i dont really face to face enemy all time

otherwise memento backpack is okay if you play solo and like facing enemy to take down them and pick up tropphy for buff

[rich cosmos]

At that rate just use striker with two blues

[scenic hornet]

i cannot heal myself with drone, it feels so slow

[rich cosmos]

Just use gunner for armor on kill

[scenic hornet]

but yeah i agree, if i have oro smg, i would play like that, run around and nut enemy

[scenic hornet]

i use striker 2 blue core with survivalist at the current

one from catharis and skill is drone

it can keep me alive from by bad skill

but i will try to reduce till red only

[solar sable]

Please don't recommend YouTube builds to new people. Most "builds" are clickbait or have NBB which is a newbie trap.
Instead we have a 📌 Spreadsheet on THIS channel that has all top builds made and tested by the community.

[scenic hornet]

what is nbb?

[solar sable]

NinjaBike bag

[scenic hornet]

ah s h i t

that suck for sure =]]

[solar sable]

It's not as bad as you think, but not a great option if you're running Open World. At that point use Memento.

[scenic hornet]

ohh

i am thinking about building a juggernaut

maybe something like foundary with chameleon for close range

or oro if i am lucky enough

[solar sable]

Tbh, armor in LZ (open world) is almost useless as enemies will drain that out if you don't deal as much damage

[scenic hornet]

i though bulwalk focus on regen and shield

but shield can break easily so i think something like artificial hive is okay

but i dont feel that build gonna have much damage

i just feel like take my fat ass around to attract enemy =]]]

[solar sable]

yeah shield can break easily but if you have both Holstered Regen and Active Regen mods it recovers at a fast rate

[scenic hornet]

yeah i have that

[solar sable]

Tank builds are not an option anymore iirc

[scenic hornet]

hmmm

[scenic hornet]

so we just hide and shoot or RNG all the time?

[solar sable]

Take cover without vaulting and search for an angle where you can see the enemy but they can't at all

If you have to take cover use cover-to-cover

[scenic hornet]

ohhhhhh

this is the reason why i saw somevideo people dont really lean on cover

just a shield and stay behind tall wall

[solar sable]

dien AKA rotor blades does them both in his legendary runs

[scenic hornet]

yeah yeah i see his videos

and anytip on how to see bomb coming

it pretty nut cus i dont notice sometime and that things just fly to me

😅

[solar sable]

||i would pay an insane amount of money to have Rotor Blades on xbox||

[solar sable]

Put on a colorblind filter and you'll see grenades and other stuff's aura easily

[scenic hornet]

colorblind filter

hmmm i have never heard about that but i will find, thanks

[solar sable]

Settings > Accesibility I think

well, imma go to sleep

[scenic hornet]

okay bye 😃

[surreal depot]

How much do I need to pay for zoo

[shy willow]

The ad said 3000

[tawdry flare]

3000 cents?

[tulip charm]

3000 zimbabwe dollars

[shy willow]

I need that money

[versed summit]

I missed the part where that's my problem

[shy willow]

I'm done trying to convince you

[onyx sage]

sir

[marsh pilot]

Ok. I am now flip flopping decisions on wether i should go with Striker or Heartbreaker build

Heartbreaker has the 2nd highest DPS apparently. I am ok with that in exchange for better defense

[vestal ibex]

Just make both. Pinned spreadsheet in the channel->Hub(builds tab)->evernote link next to build description.

[marsh pilot]

Yeah. I have both openend. I go with HB first.

Summit on Hard. I tried Countdown but this seems too much for me at the moment

[vestal ibex]

I feel like for new players HB is a good start because it's more forgiving with it's armor and armor while stacking.

You do know about the build loadouts right?

Cause you could start tons of builds and save them in loadouts then swap around as you test things.

[marsh pilot]

Ty. Yes i saw that option. ❤️

[silent solar]

im bored sooo, any build advice for lmgs in general

[red island]

striker + fox prayer

[magic pilot]

Wrong

[red island]

no u

[wise swallow]

wrong 🤓

[red island]

no u both

[silent solar]

say less

im going to use dare, spotter, tech link with fox and striker

nvm u cant use laser forr dare

[magic pilot]

Striker, coyotes ceska chest for lmg still

L86 with flatline

[wise swallow]

Umbra, Frenzy, GR9

not the most effectively but very fun to hear the brrt

[red island]

with bullet king

[onyx sage]

solo god mode legendary build heartbreaker striker ninjabike unkillable 300% damage

[solar sable]

how tf would you mix Striker with HB 😭

[tulip charm]

Nbb

[dreamy valve]

Dare with Strikers?

yes or no

[versed summit]

never

[limpid dew]

I want to farm for another build, so far I have two builds:

• 4 pc striker, ceska, coyote, st elmo
• technician build with capacitor, waveform, empress+wyveform+hana u

any fun (not necessarily op/meta) build recommendations?

[solar sable]

Oxy, mortar, Hotshot, any PvP build that suits your playstyle, healer, maybe try any other DPS builds like Negotiators.

[limpid dew]

will try hotshot since i haven't really played much with MR

[shy willow]

For general use it's a pretty nice set

[upper gale]

on heartbreaker bighorn

i completely forget bout crit and just do headshot

[tulip charm]

That’s the way you’ll build it

[upper gale]

solid ty

[tulip charm]

Well its mainly for pvp

Crit is way better for pve

[urban latch]

Bighorn hsd HB in pvp sounds awful imo lol

[upper gale]

Its rlly good just tried it

If u have shit aim u wont b able to use it

[jagged marlin]

Yea it sounds quite strong.

[upper gale]

Wit 25 proficiency i was hitting 300k dps on headshot

[pastel crane]

Those expertise upgrades look pretty expensive

[red island]

thats cause they are

[stiff jasper]

Hsd HB is fine if your aim is fine, personally I just wouldn't use bighorn since I facetank people by stacking armor and also stacking damage, after these I definitely want to do damage immediately but not stacking again

[magic pilot]

I'm not a fan personally

[upper gale]

Stack arm wit lefty then go in

Works with eb too

[urban latch]

You'll have no issues mowing down unsuspecting pve landmark farmers

[upper gale]

Tbh striker oro or umbra capacitor shits on anythin anyway

[bitter depot]

absolute to umbra

Oro striker vs my oro bleed is nun

[wise swallow]

It’s hard to use at times but also very strong when used right

I like it

EB is definitely better then big horn for it but I just like big horn

[bitter depot]

Eb is like the best exotic ar

[tawdry flare]

Nope

[upper gale]

Havnt got the eb, cant relate😭

[bitter depot]

yeah you run 6 piece yellow striker with backfire

[tawdry flare]

Wrong everyone in this server knows i run only meta you can ask any local here

[wise swallow]

Situational

In a PvP context sure

[bitter depot]

nah you run 5 piece airaldi

all blue cores

[tawdry flare]

Wrong again

Pretty sure someone will answer that i am on quite a long spree to not say the word

[mint axle]

you should have seen back when we needed 20 exotic components after expertise 20.

[red island]

its still the case ?

21+ expertise is 20 exotic mat

[vestal ibex]

Naw it's 56 total exo comps to get to 26 iirc

It's either that or +7

[red island]

then spreadsheet isnt up to date

[vestal ibex]

It is 56, where is this info in the spreadsheet?

[red island]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/e/2PACX-1vTJEX5DerCvOj3a_m36TRy1gPBAUvrduOIdmXI9j1Y0MpQk1wIXaZ9KOcPa7HzXzp_N5qGmjDj6yEfL/pubhtml?pli=1#

expertise upgrade tab

[vestal ibex]

Well you'll have to contact the people who run that one but it hasn't been updated, see change log, since 3-2.

[red island]

yeah its becoming abandonned

somebody in charge need to give up admin rights

[upper gale]

wat setting is it to get dmg numbers on ur screen like that

[urban latch]

@blissful rampart

[white zodiac]

Folks, I'm looking for a armor shredding weapon / build to go with my skill hard wire skill build

[onyx sage]

you can't really do that on a skill build with a gun

[versed summit]

like just a damage build to run when you're not running your HW build?

[onyx sage]

"armor shredding" just means high damage, and you're not getting that on a build that doesn't focus on weapon damage

[white zodiac]

there's damage to armor, isn't there?

[onyx sage]

yeah but just having it doesn't solve your problem

and some of the most annoying enemies don't have armor so that stat is useless

[white zodiac]

but some of the most annoying enemies are perfectly handled by my skills 😒

and those with armor are for my personal playstyle a pita

[onyx sage]

because you focus on skill damage

[white zodiac]

that's why I'm looking for something to shave down their armor

[onyx sage]

you can't have your cake and eat it too

[white zodiac]

so what does the damage to armor stat?

[versed summit]

I'd just take scorpio and call it a day

[onyx sage]

you deal more damage to white bars

[white zodiac]

increase exponentially the damage done to armor, aye?

[versed summit]

you can't have a cake and eat it too but scorpio is a cupcake

[onyx sage]

"exponentially" doesn't make sense, but yes it is its own multiplier

[white zodiac]

so yeah, it'd actually be a nice addition if I could manage to increase the efficacy of a skill build while pairing it with some armor shaving

[onyx sage]

but you take it at the cost of another stat

[white zodiac]

maybe skill haste

[onyx sage]

the most tested ones are already on the spreadsheet pinned here

but the general theme is you want to focus your build on certain archetypes only, as otherwise your budget is spread too thin

[white zodiac]

i see

[onyx sage]

and weapon damage builds are meta in this game

builds using skills are mostly for support, they are strong, but they are supportive generally

[mint axle]

Yeah but it doesn't apply to armor plates from heavies and warhounds

[white zodiac]

that I supposed

[onyx sage]

_ _

if it doesn't have a white bar, dta does nothing

[white zodiac]

also, that I do know

[river ledge]

Guys, is it normal for a low level shd watch player to have fragile armor?

[shy willow]

And then sledge enters the chat to mess it up

[shy willow]

Players of all levels have fragile armour lol

[unborn sinew]

Which abilites are the best for an eclipse build? Stinger Hive and Firestarter Chem Launcher or is there a better combination?
I am fairly new to TD2 and try to build my first build. 🤔

[junior surge]

Burn sticky and Fire chem are great if you're going for pure damage. Riot Foam chem is great for cc builds. Jammer pulse also has it's uses against black tusk

[unborn sinew]

sticky bomb i can unlock somehow right?

[onyx sage]

[red island]

thoughts on this guy i joined to help him clear a lvl1 cp ?

[vestal ibex]

That you shouldn't show peoples names if you ever wanna dis on people first of all.

[red island]

thats better

[vestal ibex]

My thoughts are that they are having fun and are blissfully unaware. You did offer help or advice then?

[red island]

yes

they ignored me

[vestal ibex]

Eh maybe they have chat turned off, or are a kid, or disabled in some way. If you tried that's all that matters.

[red island]

yeah obviously

its still better than the other one that was running with lvl 1 gear while being lvl 39

[bitter depot]

could try capacitor

[jagged marlin]

Some peeps also don't like help, if they are having fun, that's all that matters

[red island]

they called for help tho

i was sherperding

and i can see why since they got 0 damage they must be struggling

[jagged marlin]

Well, maybe they just wanted to play with someone, I know people that generally use it to matchmake instead of the categories

[bitter depot]

imagine answering back up calls

[red island]

yeah but its open world, you gotta specifically call for backup

not just do matchmaking for missions

[jagged marlin]

There is a matchmaking option for open world

I doubt most people use it however

[vestal ibex]

It's easier to back up call tbh

[red island]

yeah, but again, i was answering back up call, not just matchmaking

and im pretty sure this guys doesnt know what thoses buttons do anyway

[vestal ibex]

yikes

I should add them and send them this convo...

[red island]

why

[bitter depot]

ohh snap

[red island]

we arent mocking them, we just see the build and go "thats wild"

we all were bad at builds at some point

[bitter depot]

.

[red island]

?

[vestal ibex]

big yikies

[red island]

man i answered back up calls to people with lvl 1 gear

[bitter depot]

YikEs

[red island]

how is that yikes ?

[bitter depot]

did you atleast Tell them to change the grey pieces out for better pieces?

[vestal ibex]

It's probably better to move on before this guy really says what he is thinking.

[red island]

literally

[bitter depot]

now that is a BIG yikes 😐

[red island]

"they are a kid or disabled" => fine
"they are not great at the game" => big yikes

[tulip charm]

I mean they're doing cp1...

[red island]

but yeah, i guess my thoughts are the pb

[tulip charm]

anything is viable in easy

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[red island]

yeah i didnt say it wasnt viable ?

[bitter depot]

oh well

they'll figure it out eventually

[red island]

hopefully

tho i would prefer if you guys were not implying bad stuff when im trying to help new players

[bitter depot]

what bad stuff?

[red island]

but i guess as said before, better move on before you say what you really think

[vestal ibex]

You posted that hoping people would bandwagon and make fun of them...

[red island]

no i didnt

[vestal ibex]

Then you posted it for??

[red island]

to make fun of the build, not the player ?

i even cropped out the name after you said it

if i was making that build myself and posted it without name you wouldnt see the difference

[vestal ibex]

They made the build so you are making fun of their build that they made.

[red island]

and i would be saying "what u think about it"

[bitter depot]

good point

[red island]

like i did with non brand gear

[vestal ibex]

There are memes and there is pointing and laughing.

[red island]

yeah, thats the point, im not pointing at a person

but at a build

otherwise i would say "they are bad af look how they cant build"

[hazy steeple]

Okay so I thought this went without saying, but: move on.

[patent fossil]

Move up
Move on up

[onyx sage]

i just want to click heads

[red island]

me too but they move

bad heads

someone need to teach them

[onyx sage]

i did some sick flicks yesterday in capitol

[red island]

i never could do flics in division

i could do them in overwatch/valorant/cs

but division i just dont get how it works, it feels wacky

[onyx sage]

idk if those games are also hitscan but division is hitscan, it's pretty easy

[tulip charm]

overwatch is mixed cs is hitscan and idk about valo

[shy willow]

Considering the similarities between Valo and Cs id say probably hitscan

[tulip charm]

yeah

[shy willow]

Apparently it came to console which is a lil weird

[tulip charm]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[red island]

is it ? i alwaus feel like there is travel time

[onyx sage]

nope

well, besides grenades and chem launcher stuff

but bullets are hitscan

[red island]

ok

i didnt know that, thats nice

[onyx sage]

sticky bomb being hitscan makes it super strong too

[red island]

yeah sticky is weird cause it stick to the target you aim at but with a delay even if the target is behind cover

[onyx sage]

yeah there's just a delay before you can explode

[red island]

not just to explode it, there is also a delay to stick it

but it doesnt matter since it only count when you press your button

[onyx sage]

there's no such delay if you instant cast

[red island]

there is the animation delay

[versed summit]

Instant cast op

[onyx sage]

if you double tap, the target is only registered on the second tap

[red island]

thats why sticky goes through walls sometimes

[shy willow]

instant cast changed my life

[red island]

yeah thats what i mean, the target is hit the moment you double tap but the animation is slower

[onyx sage]

if they move between your first and second tap you'll miss

just bind the instant cast button. it'll save your life

[red island]

so that make the sticky kinda autoguided

its funny but at least you can rely on it

[vestal ibex]

Full sprint sticky bombs yo.

[red island]

enemy be like : i am speed
im like : im sticky tho

[fathom thunder]

Quick question: Which is the brand/gear for shotgun damage

[mint axle]

Badge tuff and Hunter's fury

[fathom thunder]

👍

[rich lotus]

On a strikers build would backfire or lady death be more powerful than saint?

[magic pilot]

Neither

[rich cosmos]

Backfire is too gimmicky to compare to other weapons and lady death is the smg of all time

[rich lotus]

Yea i used lady death once and fell in love thats why i needed to ask

Also does backfire activate catharsis?

[hexed steppe]

No

[rich lotus]

That’s unfortunate

[hexed steppe]

Backfire basically just bad all around. Takes 4 mags and a lot of bleed to get to max damage... by that time you're out of combat and it loses proc quick.
You have to use hazpro to even make it halfway usable, but would be better off with any other weapon and crit rolls instead of the hazpro

[rich lotus]

I see

[hexed steppe]

Stick with elmo or work on getting oreo from incursion

[rich lotus]

But lady death is soooooo goooooodd

[hexed steppe]

Then go for it

Better than backfire

[rich lotus]

Right thanks man

[magic pilot]

Lady death is great but the problem is keeping the stacks

Maybe try the Acosta knees and a ceska chest with obliterate on striker with lady death

[digital orchid]

does dmg to targets out of cover in combination with oxidizer increase damage to turrets or the tower generators in incursion?

[tulip charm]

Yes

[digital orchid]

nice. what about damage to armor?

[onyx sage]

does as well

[magic pilot]

You are gonna want 3 empress, wyvern, and fox/ contractors. Can swap Wyvern for Acosta or contractors for btsu

[digital orchid]

what about the future initiative set?

[magic pilot]

This is for oxi on the turrets

Are you speed running?

[digital orchid]

no im just trying to get it done the most efficient way. also what would be the best specialization? right now i have gunner

[magic pilot]

Technician, artificer for second skill

[digital orchid]

ty ill tryy thaat

[magic pilot]

You won't need FI then for turrets, 3 dps and oxi or 2 dps 2 oxi

I prefer 3/1

Weapons get an in-sync shotgun and glory daze

[digital orchid]

does the glory daze stability buff also apply to the oxi? or just the gun itsellf

[onyx sage]

it does

that's why it's used

[magic pilot]

Helps for the super long range shots on the batteries

[digital orchid]

im guessing 2nd gun should be harmony ythen

[magic pilot]

Shotgun with in sync

The DTA applies to oxi

[urban latch]

2 oxy is a pretty big waste

[magic pilot]

Some people run it like that, I don't

[urban latch]

Tell them to stop missing lol

[magic pilot]

I think they are just too slow at shooting them

[urban latch]

What's the rush though? Are they running forward to gazebos on right and left?

[digital orchid]

thx for the tips

how does skill efficiency on empress affect oxi?

also dmg?

[vestal ibex]

This is the lineups I'd suggest you use. You can practice solo but you have to be on point and with a perfect build. It's much easier to have someone stream to you and make sure you are hitting right, do this after clearing turrets. Also make sure your streaming distance is all the way up in the settings, I forget exactly where it is.

[digital orchid]

hitting 444k dmg with oxi (15 expertise). guess that'll do

[digital orchid]

i'll try the spot for right tower tyy

[digital orchid]

497k*

[vestal ibex]

I originally made that video to show that it's quick and easy with practice so I didn't show my builds or explain anything. It's a simple build and you don't have to be that good to take them down anyway.

I would say three left>OC>three right>rest on sniper

[digital orchid]

now that u mentioned it, that sniper is annoying af

[vestal ibex]

Sometimes you'll kill both turrets, the drone guy, sniper, and 1 more ad that might have come to hang with the sniper.

[magic pilot]

No idea only did 2-3 runs with them

I haven't been on much since I been playing tarkov

[vestal ibex]

How about the incursion speeds group huh? HUH!?

[hexed steppe]

Skill efficiency is % in all skill buckets. For oxi its duration, skill damage, haste

[magic pilot]

I'm slacking man

[hexed steppe]

how would that glory daze even help an oxi? considering stability is less sway, but oxi covers a pretty big area where the exact pinpoint placement is not needed.
invisable hand i can see. in sync shotgun with dta/dttooc seems most ideal, with cap rolled dttooc as backup

[onyx sage]

aiming at turrets in incursion is helped a lot by that stability

[versed summit]

It really does make a difference with sway when you’re launching a chem across the map. You don’t need it tbh, but it’s nice

[onyx sage]

and you can always swap to in sync shotgun right after you finish shooting chem

[hexed steppe]

just seems off, idk. i dont oxi a lot anymore but have used them a lot in the past as well as a lot of foam which works the same. rof seems more handy for application

[onyx sage]

you shoot them from far away yet?

[hexed steppe]

across the big areas in countdown

no creeping either (for foam)

[onyx sage]

eh, just having 0 sway means you don't miss, and that's what you need for speedrunning more tbh

[hexed steppe]

ill have to try it out probably to see. i just never really noticed sway in em ig

[onyx sage]

saying that, i would concede if i use oxi in capitol. it's more close quarters so the rof from chatterbox or invisible hand would be better

[hexed steppe]

i usually only use oxi at the end of tidal heroic for the sams. previously it was all f10 😂

then foam anywhere tbh but mostly cd

[magic pilot]

The shot for oxi on incursion is super far... like you aim above the building to hit the battery

So a slight sway and you completely miss or don't make the gap to hit the battery

[shy willow]

For incursion turret glory daze really helps

[magic pilot]

Other than incursion I would never use it, maybe IH speeds? But I doubt it

[onyx sage]

@magic pilot does trap explosion proc in sync?

[magic pilot]

Not sure why it wouldn't

[onyx sage]

just asking for descent

[red island]

well it should

[haughty wraith]

I unlocked the hunter killer chest piece, is the chest piece still good to make a build around it?

[versed summit]

Generally no, it’s not worth it over intimidate on a better brand set.

You can make use of it if you go for 2 pc Golan and get the regen, but I can’t think of any builds off hand where that’s relevant.

[gentle lichen]

Pvp regen makes use of it
Pve not so sure unless you're making a "fun" build

[magic pilot]

Pve it's not worth using unless you are doing some kind of regen pfe build

[chrome knoll]

can some1 send me 1 hit build for sniper/liberty pistol?

[solar sable]

Idk if this Regulus HH will work as fine with Liberty.

[tulip charm]

It can work

[vestal ibex]

Yeah but it's pretty much the same as using a D50 but you have a talent that is counter intuitive toward head hunting.

[gentle lichen]

9 round mag can be appealing

[tulip charm]

but having the ability to turn of your brain and use determined is so nice

[faint chasm]

what build do you guys run with oro?

[tulip charm]

Striker

[faint chasm]

ive never ran anything other than striker on this game

[gentle lichen]

hunter's fury is also good

[hexed steppe]

That's pretty uniform for a lot of people nowadays

Nego and umbra are also options, along with Hf mentioned above

[faint chasm]

ill give it a try. it got kinda boring running the same build always

[upper gale]

Heartbreaker bighorn is fun if u got aim

Capacitor umbra is good too

[digital orchid]

Why is it that more and more people use lefty instead of acs in combination with striker build?

[patent fossil]

Lefty is an ACS, but with a powerful extra damage talent for bosses

[shy willow]

Perfect sledge

[vestal ibex]

Almost everyone is using ACS to stack, you can use it for DPS but most stack and swap back to main weapon. Perfect sledge is huge along with the fact that the lefty can have a fire rate mod the normal ACS can't although that point is a lil sweaty.

[glossy scarab]

If I'm not mistaken the lefty can take a rate of fire attachment whereas ACS cant. rof=faster stacking

[digital orchid]

Since i use shotgun for stacking, lefty would be better then?

[tulip charm]

I mean it doesn’t really matter. Just pick an acs you like.

[vestal ibex]

Yeah it doesn't exactly matter but it does if you wanna SUPER min max and be sweaty about it.

[shy willow]

muh 5 percent rof

[devout agate]

I made a pvp build and wondering if I can get more damage out of it

I have matador and w&h gloves

So two piece walker and Harris

And the rest is strikers with all CHD and one piece CHC

I’m at 59% CHC and 151%CHD

Should I switch something to get more damage out of it

[vestal ibex]

It might be easier to post a screeny.

[devout agate]

I can’t atm not home

[vestal ibex]

https://mxswat.github.io/mx-division-builds/#/

Build it here so people have a better idea of the build maybe?

[tulip charm]

Using Striker chest is already a massive handicap for pvp

Its impossible to 150+ stacks in pvp and its already hard enough maintaining 100 stacks with it

[tulip charm]

So if you want damage I recommend using striker back and either ceska /groupo unbreakable or everyday carrier

[devout agate]

i get that but if i can consistently get kills back to back it might not be as handicap

im only losing 3 per second after 100

plus im getting basically around 50 stacks if i hit every shot with ouro in like 3 seconds

[tulip charm]

🤔

ngl if you want more damage why not use obliterate

[urban latch]

Unbreakable in pvp is ideally what you want tbh. And your really not giving up any damage vs the strikers chest since being over 100 stacks is generally unrealistic

[vestal ibex]

Easy way to know what your stacks look like is to record footage but really I can't imagine someone is going to afk let you stack on them.

[tulip charm]

yeah but farming an unbreakable ceska or groupo is insanity

[urban latch]

I mean it's a striker build, should be easy to get 5 blues without the chest, or even 4 is still absolutely fine if you want an exotic like coyotes

[tulip charm]

fair

[magic pilot]

I've never seen anyone actually get and maintain 200 striker stacks in PvP

Also 2 pc walker is one of the worst "dps brand" combos

Also I take it you are using Ouro since that's what your crit stats show, I would absolutely want efficient or unbreakable on an smg build

@devout agate

[gentle lichen]

6B 4 striker matador and intimidate sokolov.

[tulip charm]

thats a thing aswell

[magic pilot]

Maybe with a healer or on south stairs

[devout agate]

it works for me

heres my problem

i wanna use matador for the ad rush but would it be better to have that 5% extra damage to armor or the smg damage from soko

[urban latch]

You say it works but your asking for advice on how to improve. That's the major thing you can improve

The chest I mean

[magic pilot]

Using second Walker is not worth no

Grupo, soko, or ceska would be better

[devout agate]

I’m at 59 CHC with everything fully rolled

I’ll use soko

[magic pilot]

Ceska would be the best option

You have chc rolled on the striker gear or you are using chc mods that's why

53% with no extra chc rolled

Soko is good if you are only going to use Ouro

[devout agate]

One CHC

The rest is chd

Ceska isn’t worth it

If I’m at 59% CHC

[onyx sage]

that's why you get another one with chd

[magic pilot]

I feel like I've explained this a lot to you

[devout agate]

If I’m at 59 chc I wouldn’t use ceska

The only way I’d use ceska is if I get another chd like rotor said

[onyx sage]

...then do that

it's so easy to get it

[devout agate]

I’m using sokolov

As I said earlier

[devout agate]

Wb this @magic pilot

[magic pilot]

Over crit cap

Swap gloves or knees to contractors or fox

[gentle lichen]

@magic pilot been on this for a while. Worth dropping hsd attributes for hazpro? Blue rolls are regen on this

[wise swallow]

if you enjoy taking 2 mags to kill a red NPC sure

[gentle lichen]

😿

It does hella good damage and regen but foamed is insta killed

[wise swallow]

haz pro instead of regen

[gentle lichen]

That'll be like a 1.25% regen drop

Actually no it's just 1% can't change emperor

[wise swallow]

womp womp

1% less regen to not get foam'd or burned

[red island]

you guys get cc ?

[gentle lichen]

I guess chem swap can get me more survivability instead of the 1%

[upper gale]

W

idk if to change to blue core or put unbreakable on it

or somet else

[solar sable]

Unbreakable and hits hard with Ouro PvP

[upper gale]

yea idk wat to do

may put unbreak on

[tulip charm]

Dont put a blue core on it with braced as a talent 💀

Your only choice is to change it to unbreakable

[solar sable]

that's what I'm saying but he says "idk what to do" lmao

[upper gale]

Well idfk

Thats why i asked here

i just build wats good, aim well and kill

idk wat works and wat doesnt im not that much of a nerd

[onyx sage]

thing is we just told you what to do

[upper gale]

U didnt do shit u just turned up

[onyx sage]

okay buddy

not like i lurk always here

[hexed steppe]

lies

[onyx sage]

okay i lied 😔

[magic pilot]

Who lurkin

[tulip charm]

your lurkin

[magic pilot]

Always

[devout agate]

I need a spotter build for pvp

[wise swallow]

the normal he shit + perfect spotter

and for the love of god youve been here long enough to know to look at the guide

[devout agate]

No.

[devout agate]

What’s the normal he shit + perfect spotter

[wise swallow]

Im gonna kill you

not ingame either

[devout agate]

what is it

[wise swallow]

coyote, pic, ceska, foxes, groupo

[shy willow]

Isn't there a PvP build guide

[wise swallow]

yes their is naval yes there is

[devout agate]

ok

[wise swallow]

and I shouldnt need to say this but since your special only go to 50 chc not 60

[devout agate]

All blue or any red cores?

[shy willow]

Besides most DPS builds are the same just with certain pieces swapped out

[wise swallow]

tf do you think

[devout agate]

r u on sum?

[wise swallow]

does a build with spotter and vigi want high survivability?

no we want dmg

[wise swallow]

you refuse to use the guide so im gonna give you shit for it

[devout agate]

I can care less

I’m asking a question in a server that’s supposed to help

[wise swallow]

then deal with it. go 3-3

[devout agate]

which red cores do I need

[shy willow]

It literally doesn't matter

[wise swallow]

3-3

[devout agate]

ok

[wise swallow]

3 blue 3 red. can run more reds if you so please

[onyx sage]

you gotta pay me to read

[wise swallow]

honestly I dont understand how looking at a picture of the build with every laid out for you isnt easier then asking 4 different questions

I really dont get it

[shy willow]

"he who doesn't read, rotor blades he must need" -sun tzu

[magic pilot]

He who smelt it, delt it ~ sun tzu "art of war"

Nah it's cool don't bother reading the thing I spent like 8 hours making

All the builds suck anyway

No ninja bike

[shy willow]

"ninja bike is ass lol" -sun tzu

[wise swallow]

Yea you suck

[magic pilot]

Haven't opened the game in 2 weeks tbh

[onyx sage]

while you were gone i pulled the sickest melee baits

[magic pilot]

Send the clips

[magic pilot]

Bro is nasty with it

[gentle lichen]

No regulus either

[mint axle]

No sacrum imperium either

[dreamy valve]

The power of Mouse and Keyboard

[smoky abyss]

I need to get the Flatline talent, whats the best way to farm it?

[hexed steppe]

Farm the weapon type you want the talent for

Countdown and summit have selectable target loot

You can also craft weapon type needed and pull talent from that of you dont want to farm

[smoky abyss]

Yeah, I thought you could recalibrate or something

Countdown is bugged for me so I cannot MM it lol

[hexed steppe]

Farming the type allows you to extract it into the library and be able to recal it onto your desired weapon

Try summit since cd not working for you

Directives will give more chances at target loot drop

[red island]

you can, if you give it to library you can put it anywhere after that except names and exotic weapons

[magic pilot]

Craft whatever weapon type you need it for, or check vendors

[spiral talon]

havent played in forever, is famas still regarded as the best non legendary ar? heard we had a little rebalance a while back

[solar sable]

F2k makes a difference

[versed summit]

basically. F2000 is also very good now.

[spiral talon]

oh never bothered farming the shield splinter or any f2000, so i have some goals to go for then 😄

[versed summit]

FAMAS is still super competetive so no real rush. I prefer FAMAS because it's a little more accurate anyways tbh

[spiral talon]

and one more mod than the f2000 too

fast hands still good or is there a better option now?

[versed summit]

nothing changed with AR talents for a while tbh. Fast Hands is still one of the best

[spiral talon]

so the rebalance didnt do that much then?

[versed summit]

sort of, the rebalance wasn't for talents though anyways.

a lot of ARs are more competitive than they were, and are at least closer now.

[spiral talon]

i see, gonna get the shield splinter and see if i like hte f2000

[tulip charm]

They're both the best he ar in the game

[tulip charm]

Imagine having a pvp healer build but never able to use it ):

[red island]

what would that build do ?

i dont see it healing much tbh

or get damage

[elder cave]

If I don’t have the Ouroboros smg what’s another smg that is right there with it

[solar sable]

For what build?
You can replace it (I think) with Vector or if you don't want that one use an AR like F2k or Famas

[elder cave]

Ngl I just like having meta weapons no clue what build I have

[onyx sage]

so uhh... i've made a discovery

it seems that brazen does multiply with hh

previously i've said that brazen only multiplies the bullet damage, but i was wrong. this makes brazen a very compelling choice versus pummel even in HH

[tulip charm]

Most of the healing is from kit. The hive/seeker is just for them to sustain a bit more damage.

[magic pilot]

You are gonna want a high end one

[magic pilot]

How close are they?

[onyx sage]

5m

if you're asking about the distance

[versed summit]

I assumed he meant damage wise, but it’s a weird comparison because of uptime.

[onyx sage]

but then close to what? pummel?

[versed summit]

I’d assume pummel

[onyx sage]

pummel is a bit lower than 15% at +20

[magic pilot]

What's the dmg difference between pummel and brazen with HH I mean

[shy willow]

Efficient+ survivalist is a pretty decent source of healing and the mender mine is free

Don't have much experience with PvP healing though

[onyx sage]

brazen is 1.24, pummel is ~1.148

assuming expertise 20

quite a bit bigger

[magic pilot]

Yea no kidding

Does that hit any new break points though?

Would be good for Nego one shots since brazen stays on weapon swap

That's not HH though

[versed summit]

I think they’re changing that tbh

[onyx sage]

brazen no longer stays as of now

[onyx sage]

would need to take a look but a near 8% increase is nothing to scoff at, especially if it's easier to proc

but pummel's other strength is in ammo efficiency

if you don't need that then brazen is the clear winner

[magic pilot]

Rip

[magic pilot]

Idk pummeling like 15 enemies is sweet

[onyx sage]

it really is

i think pummel is more practical for most people

[magic pilot]

Brazen- bosses
Pummel- general use

Good thing you can carry 2

[dreamy valve]

A headshot focused Zwiadowka rifle build isn’t too bad, pretty competitive dps compared to other red builds imo

Just need to land those headshots and you’ll tear through enemies pretty quick

[shy willow]

I mean a dread edict hotshot with glass cannon does absolutely stupid DPS

But it's not really practical tbh

[dreamy valve]

The handling bonus is just so good, you can just beam heads pretty consistently

With an MDR

[marsh pilot]

Can i somehow pulse the dummy targets at the base ? I want to test my heartbreaker build.

[tulip charm]

Pulse the rails above the target

[marsh pilot]

Ty. I found the St. Elmo and it feels better than my Kingbreaker with Perfect Flatline. Is my build bad ? I used the one from the spreadsheet here.

[tulip charm]

If its from the spreadsheet then its good

I would recommend using an ar that runs flatline over elmo but its your choice

[marsh pilot]

Yeah i am using the Kingbreaker with perfect flatline but when shooting the dummies i can kill the named dummy faster with my Elmo. And i don't have to reload.

[tulip charm]

🤔

[marsh pilot]

probably because of the mag size. I don't have to reload with elmo.

I don't have the Coyote mask yet. Can this be the reason ?

I run a grupo mask

[versed summit]

Are you proccing flatline?

[marsh pilot]

i use the special aiming laser to pulse them

[tulip charm]

I have no clue how elmo is out dpsing a kingbreaker

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[versed summit]

TTK isn’t the same as DPS though, and because it’s different for every enemy, it’s not a super useful metric

[tulip charm]

Probably try out a different ar with flatline

[patent fossil]

Kingbreaker has higher dps than Elmo's on paper, but Elmo's handling goes a long way at longer ranges - more hits = more dps, and headshots are like having 40% more chd

[marsh pilot]

it is not really out-dpsing the kingbreaker but because i have to reload it is slower

yeah i have to hit my headshots

[versed summit]

That’s just sustain DPS, the burst DPS on Kingbreaker is still higher, and generally, that’s what matters more

[marsh pilot]

Ok i will stick to Kingbreaker.

[tulip charm]

You should probably get a g36 with flatline

or an ar thats easier to control

[versed summit]

ACR is my preference

both of those do a little less damage than Kingbreaker, but feel a lot better.

[atomic turtle]

There's a really good Hana-U mask in Haven. 7.4% Status Effects and 11.8% Skill Haste.

Reroll the Status Effects to Skill Damage and you've got a banger mask for a DPS Skill Build.

[atomic trench]

is this usable for a lmg build?

[shy willow]

Probably BIS

[red island]

its usuable for a lot of builds

[atomic turtle]

Contractor's Gloves is great by virtue of having a separate damage multiplier. Can't really go wrong with it unless you're using a specific build.

[atomic trench]

sad this is rifle damage

[atomic turtle]

That doesn't matter.

The DMG to target out of cover is huge and more than makes up for it.

I would especially not use Ninjabike Messanger Kneepads.

They are extremely underwhelming and not good.

[red island]

its still very good for any build

[shy willow]

Foxes are just for dttooc

If you use a rifle it's just an added bonus

[atomic turtle]

Fox's Prayer kneepads are BIS for most DPS builds. DTTOOC is perfect because, like Contractor's Gloves, it's an additional damage multiplier.
Can't go wrong with it unless, again, you're running a specific build.

[atomic trench]

oops

[atomic turtle]

I mean... it's salvageable. At least, I personally would go with Critical Hit Chance, Critical Hit Damage, or Rate of Fire. But it's negligible with most LMGs to be honest.

Damage to Armor isn't the worst.

It's still up there. Just depends on your current attributes because of diminishing returns.

[atomic trench]

i see, kinda sad i have pestilence with good roll but jsut the lmg damage is low on it, the other 2 maxed

[atomic turtle]

It's not a terrible loss. Pestilence isn't that good to begin with. It's subpar.

[dreamy valve]

Kingbreaker is better than Elmo on paper only

People dislike Elmo so much here that it’s now underrated

[versed summit]

No it’s still very much overrated, but kingbreaker is very much better on a heartbreaker build.

[bright raptor]

if you seldom miss shots or are at point blank

[versed summit]

Kingbreaker is still better on heartbreaker

[dreamy valve]

I find Ouroboros better on Heartbreaker

Faster stacking while being more accurate with headshots

For longer range engagements and in terms of assault rifles, I would still use Elmo over Kingbreaker

I actually haven’t used Kingbreaker since it debuted, as most other weapons fills in a niche much more efficiently

[atomic trench]

i still feel i got lucky my first elmo dropped like this, well could try to reroll it but well

[versed summit]

It was very good before project resolve, the problem with exotics on HB is you can't reliably pulse. If you're not going to take the LLP and flatline, just run striker tbh.

[dreamy valve]

I actually have an Ouroboros and HB setup, you’re so close to the enemies, pulsing through headshots are much easier to stack that bonus armor for the extra sustain

[versed summit]

I'd rather have the extra damage from striker's, and not have to worry about needing headshots.

[dreamy valve]

I do have a strikers for close range, now that Brazen outclasses it purely on offense capabilities, I’m using it more than the HB build

[versed summit]

tbh you could just use a six-12 on HB, but yeah

[dreamy valve]

Brazen is just beastly on strikers with max stack on everything

I’ve been clearing Legendary missions a lot faster with it now

[versed summit]

i mean both of those things are pretty crazy by themselves so makes sense

[dreamy valve]

https://youtu.be/2q1P93aX_YU?si=MEal_lUrB9GKb8XF

[onyx sage]

or m870 brazen in here

[versed summit]

salvage on the D50 is kinda fye tbh

[onyx sage]

fye?

[dreamy valve]

How's this HH setup

[onyx sage]

very good

[solar sable]

I don't get why some agents use DTA, why's this?

[shy willow]

More top end HH damage

[hexed steppe]

needs more blue cores

[limpid dew]

what MR should I use with a hotshot build?

[bright raptor]

anything bolt action, the absolute best would be the SR-1 and Model 700 family but you're squeezing out the last few damage numbers by then

[limpid dew]

dang I have neither of these weapons

[fallen garnet]

its there any easy way of overcharge?

[sterile cargo]

What’s better armor on kill or armor regen?

Is there a online build maker website or app for iPhone for the division 2

[solar sable]

check pins

[sterile cargo]

Is it a app or a website?

[solar sable]

Google Sheets

[sterile cargo]

Is it not the division 2 tools

[shy willow]

Theres only set ways to get it

Future perfect/Acosta/data gloves

Might be another

[sterile cargo]

Anyone has a answer to my other question

[shy willow]

Depends entirely on your build

[solar sable]

You mean this?
https://mxswat.github.io/mx-division-builds/#/

[sterile cargo]

Yes

[sterile cargo]

Is there also a way to make it more mobile friendly cuz it’s all really big icon

[solar sable]

not really

[shy willow]

Put it into desktop site or something

[sterile cargo]

But how does armor regen work like does it regen always or only when your not taking dmg

[shy willow]

Constant regen

[solar sable]

it becomes so messy on mobile imo

[shy willow]

I wouldn't know tbh the mobile version itself works fine for me

[solar sable]

same here

[sterile cargo]

So also when your being hit

[shy willow]

Yes

[sterile cargo]

Btw what’s the best gear for a smg and AR build like a AR for a bit more range when a target is to strong to take in close range and the smg for rushing all In solo btw

[sterile cargo]

Thx then I’m gonna go with regen

[solar sable]

Striker's does great with everything

almost* everything

You have every build in the Spreadsheet

[sterile cargo]

Btw do you recommend full strikers sets? Or combined with other gear?

[solar sable]

4pc Striker, Ceska chest with Obliterate and Coyote's. All attributes should be Crit DMG and Crit Chance

Again, anything else is in the spreadsheet

[sterile cargo]

What was Ceska again?

[solar sable]

Gear Brand

Ceska Vyroba

[sterile cargo]

Yeah but what were the perks

[shy willow]

It's in the sheet

[solar sable]

+10% Crit Chance
It's in the sheet

[sterile cargo]

How do you get coyote mask?

[solar sable]

please stop refusing to go to the sheet
the sheet is glorious
magnificent
amazing
lovely.

[solar sable]

Challenging Countdown
Mask Targeted Loot

[sterile cargo]

Thx

[sterile cargo]

Which smg and AR should I go for btw?

[solar sable]

That's not the only way...

[solar sable]

St Elmo's, F2k or FAMAS

try those for now

[sterile cargo]

Which of those are exotics?

[solar sable]

St Elmo's Engine

Other two are High Ends

[sterile cargo]

And which are smg’s?

[solar sable]

Those three are AR's but try those out as they perform well at any range

[sterile cargo]

Okey

Can’t find it he f2k on google

[solar sable]

F2000

just an abbreviation

Named version is nasty and the best AR in the game

[sterile cargo]

Okey and which specialization should i run?

[solar sable]

Gunner or Firewall are perfect

Gunner gives 10% Armor on Kill whilst Firewall gives allies a DMG boost

Your decision.

[versed summit]

It really depends on the build

[solar sable]

hey there!

[solar sable]

Always does

[shy willow]

In pve it's very competitive and in PvP it just stomps

[solar sable]

ouro melts in both pve and pvp

[sterile cargo]

Gunner for me then

And what skills i want to go with atleast the reviver hive or fixer drone depending on if i die a lot

[versed summit]

Reviver hive works well as you get used to the play style a shield will help more than a fixer drone though.

[sterile cargo]

Okey thx

So shield with reviver hive

[sterile cargo]

How should I spread the crit chance and crit dmg attributes

[sterile cargo]

What pistol should I run

[red island]

any

they all bad except regulus

[sterile cargo]

Is orbit a good choice cuz I not planning to do a raid yet

[red island]

its w/e

as i said, all side arm are pretty bad except a select few for specific reasons

[sterile cargo]

W/e what does that mean?

And how should I place my minor attributes for crit chance and crit dmg like which in each slot?

[red island]

w/e = whatever

[red island]

best thing is crit chance and crit damage everywhere until you reach crit chance cap

[sterile cargo]

And what is the cap

[red island]

60%

[sterile cargo]

Thx

How many would I need for that

[red island]

depends on the weapon and the rolls on it

for example smg have crit chance as base stat

lets say you have an smg with 20% crit chance, you can place 6 times 6% crit chance on gear thats 36% so 56% total already

add to that the watch crit chance, the gear mods, team buffs, etc

[sterile cargo]

Im planning on using 2 AR cuz people here recommend that

[red island]

i wouldnt recommend double ar, rather 1 ar and 1 other type

ar has 0% crit chance as base unless you get a spcific roll, so better to get all the crit chance elsewhere

[sterile cargo]

I wanted to run one AR and one smg but someone here recommended AR

[red island]

i mean double ar is fine, but id rather run ar + lefty for bonus damage

and striker stacks

[sterile cargo]

This is what I wanted to run

[sterile cargo]

Lefty? What’s that

[red island]

a named shotgun

[sterile cargo]

May I ask why a shotgun?

[red island]

the type doesnt matter, we take it for the talent, the fact its a shotgun that allows us to stack striker is just a bonus

[sterile cargo]

How?

[red island]

how what ?

[sterile cargo]

Im not a grenade user so don’t get why that weapon

[red island]

you dont get it cause you're not a grenade user

we use grenade so we take it

40% total damage is insanely strong

[sterile cargo]

But I’m never use grenades

[red island]

then dont use it

i aint your dad lol

[sterile cargo]

Any other good options

[red island]

depends on your playstyle

[sterile cargo]

Im planning to go for mid and close range

Mid range for when a target hits to hard

[red island]

then a shotgun would still be good for you

[sterile cargo]

I want to go for 1 AR and 1 SMG

That’s my preference

[red island]

then go smg

[sterile cargo]

Btw what would you recommend to grind first the gear or the weapons or the exotics?

Without counting god rolling them just to have a template for my build

[red island]

none tbh, most of it is so random, you wont find it looking for it most of the time, it will just land on your lap at some point

i have 600h in the game and still dont have everything

[sterile cargo]

Huh what about targeted loot

[red island]

targeted loot help, but not that much

if i want elmo im gonna tl ar, but it will drop every other ar in existence before i get it xd

and exotic caches arent better

[sterile cargo]

Cuz I heard you can go to the summit and choose your targeted loot

[red island]

yes you can

it help, but it wont spawn everything you need instantly

or with stats you want

[sterile cargo]

I first just want a template before I’m gonna focus on the right stats

[red island]

just look at the build sheet you have everything you need there

[sterile cargo]

I first want all the gear so I don’t have to remember what I was and then I’m going for stats

Btw can i replace more then one attribute with tinkering?

[junior surge]

No

[red island]

no, you can recalibrate 1 stat

you can optimize everything tho but its expensive

[sterile cargo]

So it’s better to go for loot drops

[red island]

yes

[sterile cargo]

Okey thx

How do i actually grind mods?

[patent fossil]

Target loot mods

[marsh pilot]

I am so happy. I finally got my Coyote Mask for my HB build. And 2 attributes are already at max.

Core Attribute is max and CHC Attribute also max. And the 3rd one is CHD which has to be optimized. I guess this is my lucky day 😄

[versed summit]

Yeah it will always roll with those attributes, but the values you got are pretty good

[marsh pilot]

Yeah. I am happy with that. Btw i need Hyenas Tactical Materials. Are Optimisation Caches a good way to get them ?

[versed summit]

Generally I’d just farm them from bounties

[patent fossil]

you can also craft them once you've found the blueprint

[marsh pilot]

Oh true. I will look into that. Ty!

[pastel crane]

Keep in mind that crafting optimization materials are also expensive.

[clever bramble]

some people know good ouro builds?

[patent fossil]

pve or pvp?

[clever bramble]

pve

[hexed steppe]

thats a better option than 2 ar. if you are using strikers, then an acs 12 shotgun (base model of lefty) will be able to help you stack strikers. shotguns shoot 8 pellets each shot, and each of those pellets that hit will stack striker. thats why some suggest shotgun with striker. 20 rounds mag on acs12 has potential of 160 stacks very rapidly.

[patent fossil]

just go with a regular hunters fury build from the pinned spreadsheet

[clever bramble]

Ty will try

[clever bramble]

this one?

[hexed steppe]

consider memento on that setup as well. Hunters fury being a close quarters build synergizes well with memento

[patent fossil]

Yup. Firewall is a popular option for spec too for the shield, and you might find you need a couple of blue cores to help with survivability while you learn positioning skills

[clever bramble]

okay thx man

it also has a
Headshot Damage Setup:
do i have to have that one as well?

[patent fossil]

not for ouro, no

[clever bramble]

or not rlly needed

okay thx

[patent fossil]

headshot setup is mainly for when you have regulus

[scenic hornet]

Hi

Just a quick question, how many blue cores are enough for heartbreaker with memento?

[versed summit]

It depends. Optimally none

[tulip charm]

It depend entirely on the user

[drifting dawn]

whats this symbol?

[versed summit]

If you’re using a shield you can take 3, which should take your shield up to skill tier six.

[tulip charm]

Max Proficient on the item

[drifting dawn]

what does that mean?

[versed summit]

It means you can expertise it

[drifting dawn]

what does that mean xD

sorry i havent played in like 4 years, getting back into the swing of things

[scenic hornet]

currently i am only at 3 blue and 2 yellows

[versed summit]

It’s a pretty in depth system tbh, I’d recommend looking for an explanation video on YT.

[scenic hornet]

so at tier 5

tho i dont no if should be tier 6 or 5

[versed summit]

Yeah you don’t need skill tier 6 but it isn’t bad, I just wouldn’t take more blues than that, or it’s a bit wasted.

[onyx sage]

if you're focusing on weapon damage ditch the skill tiers

just do blue or red

[versed summit]

I think it’s from memento and technician

[onyx sage]

oh right those

[scenic hornet]

yeah it's from memento and technician

okay so 4 reds,3 blues and 2 yellows

[versed summit]

What skills are you running

[scenic hornet]

damage reduction drone and shield

[versed summit]

I’d recommend swapping the drone out for the artificer hive. It will repair your shield and honestly give you a lot more bang for your Buck.

[scenic hornet]

oh i thought drone would help me counter the enemy faster

but okay will try, thanks

[drifting dawn]

is there a companion app for this game or like a inventory manager, vendor notifier for items?

[onyx sage]

or use decoy

the drone uptime is too low to be useful

[urban latch]

Foam or revive hives are also great options

[urban latch]

Nope

[scenic hornet]

Ahh i forgot decoy

[drifting dawn]

how many pelets does a super 90 )like glue) shoot

[magic pilot]

They all shoot 8

[clever bramble]

feels like i do less damage then striker build

[versed summit]

It tends to have a lower top end, but can stack faster and has a lot of utility.

Also how do you have it set up?

[clever bramble]

\

[versed summit]

Your crit isn’t great, but It is what it is.

You really need to get a different chest talent though.

[clever bramble]

i know trying it

[versed summit]

I’d make sure you’re running the firewall striker shield, and if you still feel like you don’t have enough damage, try to get a different backpack.

It looks great so far though.

[clever bramble]

whyat backpack would you recomand

and any other tips

[versed summit]

Grupo backpack with wicked/unstoppable force/Vigilance.

[clever bramble]

what would be a good ar instead of my secondair

[versed summit]

My preference would be a FAMAS

[clever bramble]

okay thx ❤️

[drifting dawn]

whats better for a tank build, armor regen or explosive resist

or health

(its a foundry bulwark build)

[patent fossil]

Yes, it's lower damage than a stacked striker build, but you have the benefits of armour and health on kill plus the area disorient, which makes it easier and safer to play at short range (making best use of ouro) without getting murdered

[red island]

baiscally everything is less damage than striker

[versed summit]

Except HH

[shell condor]

danke für die vielen Englischen Nachrichten da ich nur Deutsch spreche nützt es mir nichts

[hexed steppe]

Swapping chest talent to obliterate will see your damage increase a lot.

Watch will also make a difference to your overall damage as it gets filled out.

[clever bramble]

aaah okay thx

[clever bramble]

will try

[tulip charm]

Damn reflex is german

[limpid dew]

i'm trying to come up with a Hotshot build & I would like a MR with Determined as a perk

I'm considering Classic M44 Carbine, I heard it's a rng drop so perhaps I can farm for it in Countdown?

[onyx sage]

why m44 carbine when you have better ones

it's even worse than white death

[limpid dew]

which one do you recommend then

[onyx sage]

sr-1 or model 700

[limpid dew]

oh i actually got model 700 earlier yay me

[hexed steppe]

M700 carbon also, highest capacity with comparable damage to sr1

[sterile cargo]

Hey all I am preparing a build for my agent but I’m not sure if I spread the crit chance and crit dmg attributes

https://mxswat.github.io/mx-division-builds/#/IwWgTCDMKgLCsBsMCsJnAsAHATkmgAwjGkkkBckE0xcI2owam5O+R5ZpFu4UMBAnjN0MLHgJdpPbALrTRrbjK4UwfWoLJKIK-ZQ3ztbFntX71iDDFbsYuOria4IuAHQs0YUIXUo+JkIAdgZwNGtyDy9xSkwbFFDORHhiaNQ1RHUDS0g+HK4gA

This is my build I’m preparing

[shy willow]

Needs more crit chance

[sterile cargo]

And the armor on kill mod I want to keep so just want some advice for the attributes

[shy willow]

AOK mods aren't very good

[onyx sage]

delete aok mods please

[sterile cargo]

Why

[onyx sage]

just use aok from other places, like Hunter's Fury or Gunner

[shy willow]

Because they're worse than just running gunner/palisade/HF

[onyx sage]

they are % aok which is a lot better

you'd rather put crit for those mods, and leverage aok from gunner. that's the default for most people

[sterile cargo]

Okey then what should I run cuz I also want something of survivalibty

[onyx sage]

just do a hunter's fury build

check the pinned spreadsheet in this channel, it has a guide

[sterile cargo]

No I’m running striker

[onyx sage]

well you can use gunner for a start, add palisade if you want more aok

if you want more you'll just have to do more damage to kill faster to live more

more damage IS more survivability in this game

[sterile cargo]

I am running gunner

[onyx sage]

then it should be enough

[shy willow]

Gunner is enough

[onyx sage]

if you do want more tankiness then you can swap a few red cores for blue

[sterile cargo]

Palisade what is that?

[shy willow]

As long as you keep killing you shouldn't struggle too much

[onyx sage]

aside from that just get better at killing

[onyx sage]

a brand that gives 10% aok for 1p

[sterile cargo]

What would be better 1 piece of palisade for more survivaliblty or 1 piece of ceska for crit chance even though I can get that through mods and attributes

[onyx sage]

stick to the build you have ideally. but going coyote + 1p palisade is good

ideally you get 0 chc from gear mods, they should all be crit damage

[sterile cargo]

So I should replace ceska with palisade

[onyx sage]

yes

if you do then you have to go 1 chc 2 chd mods

[sterile cargo]

And the attributes should all be crit chance

[onyx sage]

no, crit damage

you only need close to 50% chc

[sterile cargo]

The website says I’m currently at 51,5% if I remember right

[onyx sage]

that's more than enough

[sterile cargo]

But yesterday someone said 60%

[onyx sage]

basically what we mean is if you have 50% chc, the mid buff from coyote will give the last 10% so you reach 60%

[sterile cargo]

And should i keep the 9,5 crit chance on my weapons

[onyx sage]

no. change to damage to target out of cover

[sterile cargo]

All 3 or only my main weapon?

[onyx sage]

all 3

[sterile cargo]

Okey thx

[sterile cargo]

Is that TOC?

[sterile cargo]

https://mxswat.github.io/mx-division-builds/#/IwWgTCDMKhAsA2GBWETgQyADDvuCAuSCaXWEADlGFS3IgP30IQHZwoZO44U0YmRsybZClTuWa0BokSzABOSdyYykczTkJKVoNag3zNOhEj7AswSsuCLyimoszlUYfTuTKL2DhLCGRsCugtoY5iDIHKi4CHzkIUQIOlomkMqp+EA

This better?

[onyx sage]

yes. although the chest might be a bit hard to farm

you can settle for a blue core

[sterile cargo]

Why?

[onyx sage]

it always drops with blue core

which means the other attributes will also tend to drop as blue

the chance of you getting crit chance, crit damage AND obliterate is extremely low

[sterile cargo]

So what should I do then?

[sterile cargo]

What should I take if it’s blue on its minor attributes if I really have no luck

[sterile cargo]

Do you mean it’s 100% a blue core all the time it drops?

[onyx sage]

yes

[onyx sage]

so you can settle with getting 1 crit minor + obliterate

[sterile cargo]

But which minor blue core would be ideal and which crit one chc or chd

[onyx sage]

none are ideal tbh
