its getting buffed is it now ?

tulip charm
#

Depends

#

It dont matter aslong as you can one shot

hexed steppe

#

If you are using hotshot you need an mmr

#

tell me when

hazy steeple
ornate breach
#

is it illegal to say that I am in?

?

tawdry raven
#

So I had lightbulb go off while playing the manhunt for the project. Why not rework the Oreo talent cuz it's getting nerfed into the grave to do something with the eclipse virus, a new status effect would be cool for a raid weapon

versed summit
tawdry raven
#

I was thinking just reuse Elmo talent but ppl think Elmo talent is mid even tho Oreo would stack it faster so idk. And when I used it in pts it felt underwhelming to the dark winter so I think it's done for

red island
#

Elmo talent is not great but it's fine

#

Oreo talent is straight up garbage

tawdry raven
#

Oreo is keeners weapon so it doing eclipse virus DMG as a talent would be pretty cool/lore accurate

red island
#

Oreo isnt keener weapon

#

Keener use à vector iirc

#

Forgot the name

versed summit
tawdry raven
#

The description is about keener and the design matches the latest keener outfit we got

versed summit
tawdry raven
#

If u use fast hands ur prob better off with oreo

red island
#

Yeah that one

tawdry raven
#

But a DMG talent def puts it past oreo

versed summit
#

That’s kind of how St. Elmo’s Engine is atm

red island
#

Any smg with talent need you to proc it

versed summit
#

Some are harder to proc than others

red island
#

Yeah, but my point is oreo is always at the same state

hazy steeple
#

Give close+personal to Ouro and let's see if people still like it.

tawdry raven
#

I'm just glad everyone seems to agree the EB nerf is overkill so maybe it'll get buffed from pts

versed summit
hazy steeple
#

EB getting nerfed is just the next step in its cycle.
It's been on a rotation of buff>nerf>buff>nerf, etc since 2019.

tawdry raven
#

I'm just curious why they wanted the stats to be nearly identical to elmo

versed summit
tawdry raven
#

It just feels like a cheap tactic to make players not feel left out for not having the EB

versed summit
#

Eh, doesn’t make sense. Seems like the opposite of what they’d want

#

They are confusing sometimes tho

tawdry raven
#

The raids are huge turn offs for a lot of new players. Was a turn off when I started playing but it kinda got to a point it was one of the last things to do

honest moss
#

Using an eclipse CC setup, should i worry about proccing sledgehammer? Will be running survivalist anyway and figure it will be good given the support aspect of CC but i would be likely replacing perpetuation for this at the moment. I often forget to use perp but it is on a rifle so gives me range with my scorpio. This setup is a wip so generally speaking.

#

Oooo stage left nevermind.

#

Input still appreciated. I am working towards a similar one from the spreadsheet. But i won't turn down advice!

onyx sage
#

you mostly only proc sledge when it's convenient for you and dps

#

if there are say too many enemies, you're better off just focusing on foaming them because it's more urgent for your dps to stay alive and they're too spread out for sledge to do anything. but if say there's one big spawn coming out of a door and you can prep beforehand, it's always appreciated

hexed steppe
#

my countdown setup, basically using the same things as you mention

honest moss
magic pilot
#

No lefty is interesting, I'd use it to proc opp too

honest moss
magic pilot
#

I think local plays similar builds to me but in a different way it's very interesting

honest moss
#

My old usual setup for pure CC was all skill haste, dragon's glare holster and i last had on the courier. But i have tried regular CD too and it is also just as good. But i have been working on finalizing builds. Think hazpro eclipse will be better overall.

magic pilot
#

That one he uses for countdown extraction

#

The normal one is courier, btsu or electrique 4 eclipse on survivalist

honest moss
#

Yeah, i plan on using courier still atm. I will eventually also have the UG bag too but atm i have no materials after crafting for my healer. Even then i didn't get a great one. Also want one for a shotgun build for fun. So gonna need a few

magic pilot
#

Hell yea

hexed steppe
magic pilot
#

True

hexed steppe
# honest moss Yeah, i plan on using courier still atm. I will eventually also have the UG bag ...

i used to also use courier, but had to switch it up. im always on a team when i use cc so i made the switch to opp for another team buff. it doesnt hurt that i also get some of my missing damage back from opp 😅 . all haste rolls as well. 100% hazpro, iirc 100% haste (or very close to that). you can squeeze in a lot of status effects on top if not using/needing hazpro.
probably my most satisfying build... well, after mortar anyways div2demolitionist .

#

like 4 different team amps
Scorpio amp- 20% increased damage towards target from all sources
Perfect Opportunistic amp- 15% increased damage towards target from all sources
Survivalist Tactical Link amp- status affected target takes 10% damage from team mates
Perfect Sledgehammer amp- Debuffed targets take 40% increased damage to armor and armor plates

next bolt
#

Support build idea: Vile, Lavoisier, Pointman, 3 piece Golan. 5 blue 1 yellow, over 1.8m armor, can get to 80% status effects, backpack and chest both grant 50% bonus armor to team (backpack on status effect, chest on deploying shield). Elmo's as primary. Am I cooking or is this hot garbage? This is all theorycraft btw haven't tested it at all

hexed steppe
#

i wouldnt bother with vile not enough damage with all defensive talents. if elmo is the status it wont be affected by status effects. you might consider btsu and hive to overcharge your team here or there.

onyx sage
#

no need for status effects with elmo, most likely your dps is gonna use elmo anyway so them casting shock is gonna make it so your shock is ineffective anyway due to status effect cooldown

hexed steppe
#

😎

onyx sage
#

might as well go with a crit hybrid

next bolt
#

I was also thinking about maybe double badger (maybe the named holster) with scorpio

hexed steppe
#

scorpio would be good for proccing galvanized and add a team amp to the mix

tacit goblet
#

does this build for pvp still work:

solar sable
#

yes, PvP almost doesn't change

tacit goblet
#

but why fox prayer

#

it gives rifle damage, doesnt apply to SMGs at all

solar sable
#

free DTOC

#

you can ask @magic pilot himself

tacit goblet
#

this would have been a godroll :(

#

but i got status effects instead of a crit attribute

tulip charm
#

Is that your best one/only one?

tacit goblet
#

my only fox prayer for now

#

should I sacrifice one blue core for one Red Core?

hazy steeple
#

Countdown drops them like candy.

tacit goblet
#

Im just hoping im lucky enough for a good roll

tulip charm
magic pilot
magic pilot
#

But as of this patch it's one of the best smg builds

#

Survivalist for group play, firewall for solo

#

This will be my main smg build for next patch

hexed steppe
#

@opaque notch , nego build . can run like this or using glass. foxes can be traded out for coyote mask if preferred

hexed steppe
#

one of the main things about nego is getting very close to the crit chance cap (60%). transfer relies on crits

opaque notch
#

So should I just keep upgrading my m1a cqb that I have

hexed steppe
#

what is the talent on it

opaque notch
#

I'd have to check

hexed steppe
#

personally i use boomerang or flatline depending on what spec im using

opaque notch
#

I think it has flatline

hexed steppe
#

flatline is good, only 2 drawbacks. flatline locks you to tech spec and you lose 5%chc when you mount the linked laser that pulses your target

opaque notch
#

Can I add you so if I get time to play I can show u what I have

magic pilot
#

Reminds me of the old focus Meta for some reason

quasi geyser
#

is it going to be better to go with 60% CHC and 112% CHD or 54% CHC and 124% CHD ?

solar sable
#

Hmm imo the second choice is better div2shrug

surreal depot
#

First

arctic pebble
#

Okay
now I'm interesting in farming this
but is there any builds that can be used in legendary solo that can make use of the status effect gimmick
and like spread it to other enemies or allow me to deal even more damage on em?

#

Also wondering where to farm this as well

#

I'm planing on running 2 builds
a short-range dps that's more aggressive
and a medium-long range dps

mint axle
arctic pebble
#

Been thinking about build around Bighorn as a fan of Rifles
it can drop from Summit now?

#

@arctic pebble Next Season, a bunch of rifles are getting made full-auto, so it may be worth building with an eye for then.

#

SHD 500 screenshot, doing a kind of pulse-armor regen build around flatline and heartbreaker, what do yall think? Nowhere near complete, since I'm still working on optimizing the pieces. Kind of considering removing ninjabike and getting the 4p with the backpack. Weapon Slot 1 and my skills are mostly just what I'm feeling.

versed summit
#

Is it for PvE orPvP?

thorny cedar
#

PvE, usually run challenging solo without issue

hexed steppe
#

Memento can fit as well. It would give damage and regen

#

Hb mask. Memento or ceska vigilance bag

#

I would also add a shield over the seeker. How are you planning on procing pulse? Flatline/hb/spotter all require it for damage

I'll just melee bait them, like the goat @onyx sage

thorny cedar
magic pilot
#

What about things that don't have a head?

thorny cedar
#

boolet

#

it procs through armor too

#

so heavies and big boys aren't a problem

#

with polarity switch I can cut through BT minigun bros like swiss cheese with flatline

magic pilot
#

That's not what I'm talking about

#

Also if you are making a build for any of the good events you can basically use anything

#

What about mini tanks and warhounds

onyx sage
#

good luck in legendary is what he's saying

snow ingot
#

I think those things do have a head

#

Not a headshot hit box to get the extra damage off, but I think I’ve pulsed one without the technician mod or ability. Probably just flatline proc so I’m full of shit but I’d have to actually test

onyx sage
#

and flatline proc can pulse so yes

hexed steppe
# thorny cedar HB 4p grants pulse on headshot

Just to echo, there could be some issues keeping it procced on headless things. hs procs are probably fine for some stuff tho. Tech class linked laser would keep it procced on everything yiu can run into. you would also get a free skilltier to benefit whatever skill/shield

thorny cedar
#

Thats something I didn't think about, I went over to the flamethrower for the shield bonuses, but that could be good

thorny cedar
#

Mostly a solo player that matchmakes for activities that might need an agent or two(Heroics, Challenging Strongholds, that kind of thing)

hexed steppe
magic pilot
#

You can definitely manage HB without tech laser you just have to plan kills to proc pulse on skill proxies

#

Kinda like HH

thorny cedar
#

HH?

hazy steeple
#

Headhunter, it's a chest talent.

#
Damage is capped to 800% of your weapon damage. This is raised to 1250% if your headshot damage is greater than 150%."```
onyx sage
#

one of the most underrated talents in the game, that's why they buffed snipers and shotguns to make it more popular, before this it was unplayable ||petter||

solid ether

what do yall think any tips for this build?

versed summit
solid ether
#

okay i thought of trying to see if i can make a companion and obliterate for dz what do u think i could trade W&H out for?

shy willow
#

Depends on what you're trying to do

unique plover
#

what are the meta builds right now?

hazy steeple
#

The 📌 pinned guide they mentioned? Those are all 100% viable in Heroic.

solid ether
hexed steppe
#

#

and don't forget mortar

#

A big thing with DZ is sustained health, things like unbreakable, ad rush, or efficient. As well as cordinated group synergy with builds, like cavalier or healer setups

#

That's why regen headshot is so popular, % regen got huge buffs. Its easy to stay alive and headshot builds are basically always more dmg than a crit build

tired relic
#

I need a build to solo the 4 hunters

#

I can't kill them fast enough before they depop

#

Or before i run out of ammo

solar sable
solar sable
tulip charm
tired relic
#

I'll try foam and shock

solar sable
tulip charm
#

Shock doesnt get disrupted when deployed

tired relic
#

I know

tulip charm
#

Good luck then

tired relic
#

Issue is still damage

tulip charm
#

How?

#

It shouldn’t take long in normal difficulty

tired relic
#

They are bullet sponges that refill armor

#

They don't need to be in cover or free to reshield

#

They just do it infront of you even while foamed

#

So the goal would be to spam as much damage to them as possible to kill them before they use armor

solar sable
#

Just kill them on Normal difficulty as he said.

tired relic
#

It's in normal

#

It's 4 different hunters that spawn at the same time

#

I killed two of them before but ran out either of time or ammo

#

So the two others just depop

tulip charm
#

How are you running out of ammo?

#

Are you running a vector?

tired relic
#

Chameleon

solar sable
#

By any chance are you running a build with blues?
Ah that explains a lot

tired relic
#

Blues?

rich lotus
#

Hey does anyone know a good ninjabike striker build for pvp and pve?

hazy steeple
#

Blue pants on, it reduces your ammo efficiency.

tulip charm
#

Not a good choice considering it needs ramp up to do significant damage

solar sable
tulip charm
#

Anyways what other guns you have?

solar sable
tired relic
rich lotus
#

@solar sable thanks for the advice

tulip charm
#

Talent?

tired relic
#

Hold on

hazy steeple
#

Chameleon is a vector in itself by the way, it's an AR with terrible range.
worst of every possible world.

tired relic
#

I like the buffs

tulip charm
#

Ngl just show me your build and guns.

tulip charm
hazy steeple
#

The buffs are honestly the worst thing about Cham', since they vanish so fast and the upkeep is attrocious.
I use it exclusively for the fashion aspect.
and yes, show us your build!

#

a single screenshot of the main page, and one of the stats page where your crit is, would be fine.

Launching the game

tulip charm
#

Base damage buff and less body shots to to proc mid buff

tired relic
#

Aren't they immune to proc?

hazy steeple
#

"proc" is too vague a term, div2 is very math-y.

tired relic
#

Nah i mean effects

tulip charm
#

Status effect?

onyx sage
#

proc isn't any status effect btw

tulip charm
#

They aren’t

onyx sage
#

proc just means activate

tired relic
#

Ok

#

I though it was same term as in wf

tulip charm
#

Nah

hazy steeple
#

To be fair in WF, that's also quite vague.

tired relic
#

the akm is maniac

tulip charm
#

Man…

hazy steeple
#

Do you have any gasoline on you?

solar sable
#

yuck lol

honest moss
#

Foam and mag dump head. On normal shouldn't be too tough, if you want to specifically make a build try 2 red 4 blue. On heroic or such you will need elite protection for real survivability so dps is best. Also, if you are willing, you can run a determined/nemi sniper build. Id suggest maxing out hotshot stacks and headhunter beforehand. The training dummies and bodies will proc hotshots bonuses, just dont change guns.

tired relic
#

do you guys go in build advice just to say shit like that?

hazy steeple
#

Ceph, this is the warframe equivalent of hitting "auto make build".

tired relic
#

alright then

solar sable
#

Well, we thought you were running some type of blue striker's

tulip charm
#

You basically relying striker stacks to any form of damage and hunters needs to be killed quickly

honest moss
#

Nevermind my good man level 135. Godspeed.

tulip charm
#

Shd doesn’t matter

#

Its completely doable

honest moss
#

No but it relates to what they might have

solar sable
#

sort of but not entirely

tulip charm
# tired relic

Striker backpack, a chest with a damage talent preferably obliterate and ceska piece.

honest moss
#

Honestly, go 3 gila and 1 bel, thats 3% regen at all times then run maybe ceska or whatever for reds. Honestly hunters on normal drop to a foam headshot rush but i get its not easy to fight hunters.

tulip charm
#

Lets not make it complicated

#

Its just small tweaks and its completely fine.

honest moss
#

Honestly tweaks dont even matter, might just be weapons. St elmos would also just be a gg. Shock and dump. But yeah im with you there.

solar sable
#

Scorpio will be clutch with those 4 Hunters since you can shock them at a certain point

honest moss
#

Also it is worth trying different skills and such, sometimes you find what works and what doesn't for you. You don't need to listen to what people say is the best if it doesn't work for you. Part of the game is playstyle 🙂

tulip charm
#

Shock and foam is a godsend for hunters tho

#

Maybe decoys to redirect skills

honest moss
#

Or blinderfly if you get through emp for having the ability to move without being shot

#

Similar idea on banshees but unless its a skill build the range is like 10m

solar sable
#

blinder firefly mentioned!

tulip charm
#

Firefly too jank

gentle lichen
#

What the hell is a consistent status method

In theory you can rotate effects and perma stun enemies. Varies on the kind and effects. No idea if thats what you are meaning, otherwise no ideas sorry.

Yooo I just got an memento after accidentally deleting it a week ago.this event rocks.btw is a chameleon striker+obliterate and memento a good pve solo legendary build with 1.5 mil armor?

versed summit
hexed steppe
# tired relic

you could also try shock traps (as already mentioned) and stinger hive. both can be preset before triggering the spawn.
i would also not use the build you posted. with all the blues and lack of chest and bag talents, you are severely hindering your ability to kill them. hunters fury + scorpio will offer a ton of status options that cant be disrupted. disorient on kill from hf, then scorpio will cause them to take 20% amp damage after unloading on them.

im late to the party, so disregard this if you already got it done 🍻

#

Any fire build?

tired relic
#

no need for shock traps, just spam memento lady death with shield

somber glade
#

Hello can someone help me by asking a question?

#

Question: Why do I need only 4 striker gears?

#

🫤

snow ingot
#

teal gear set bonus stops at 4 pieces for the main effect of the set. if you look at the ddescription of the gear set and bonus at 2 piece, 3 piece, and 4 piece. there are no bonuses for 5 or 6 pieces

#

so its best to run 4 pieces teal, then 2 gold or 1 gold one exotic most of the time. theres some funky ninjabike messenger bag builds out there but few and far between

versed summit
#

Well there’s a lot of NBB builds it’s just they’re not really good builds

honest moss
versed summit
#

I can count on my hand the number of builds where there aren’t better options over it.

honest moss
#

The only actual build i have it on is my sniper build, for off stuff i just like to see what numbers i can get. Made a NB burn yesterday and then swapped out for CD instead. Was like 20k damage of burn from the extra status effects the bag gave. I do think it has some uses for solo builds if you do mixed cores and want to have regen ect. Can be used for nice qol stuff if you just dont care

#

Personally have a lot of fun with it but the builds are never as good as the real versions

versed summit
#

For solo it’s really just beaten by memento, if you don’t like stacking the trophies you can still fit in utility brands and keep higher damage by taking a good backpack talent.

honest moss
#

Well for solo stuff i once used a NB build with a mix of crit, regen and hazpro just to see how much i could fit into it. Used it for a little bit and then swapped. I am more of a wicked fan for PvE stuff.

#

The main thing is if you use NB you want to aim for as many extras as possible so if you even plan on using a 3 brand bonus or gearset, its typically not worth

versed summit
#

The problem is, even builds that you can maximize the attributes, it’s still not worth it.

magic pilot
#

There's like 3 average NBB builds

#

That are super niche and not even that good

tulip charm
#

Isnt there only one good/meta nbb and thats which is umbra walker picaros + cap for pvp?

wise swallow
#

its unironically one of the strongest builds for PVp

#

id argue now, the strongest

#

its same dmg as everyother DPS build while having pretty decent skills

tulip charm
#

Oh pve wise its wack

radiant reef
#

you do have two different types of pvp though, Id argue conflict is a lot different from darkzone due to the normalisation

weary nexus
#

feeling the itch for Div2 after Helene hit my city. Is Foundry still top set for a Bulwark?

magic pilot
#

Same builds slightly different layout

magic pilot
weary nexus
#

.... hhf?

weary nexus
#

for bulwark?

onyx sage
#

you can use the bulwark shield with it, but it's meant to be a damage dealer build, not a tank build

radiant reef
#

So I was casting my eye over a couple of pieces of gear. The devils due caught my eye. Has anyone used it as a way of all red builds keeping armour up?

hexed steppe
#

for solo memento is a really good option

radiant reef
#

Memento is arguably the best solo pve piece in the game. It’s almost too good

hexed steppe
#

its good in groups as well if you have your damage up

#

its the hardest working single piece in the game

radiant reef
#

problem with groups its hard to get stacks easily especially if you have kill stealing friends lol

versed summit
#

you have to be the kill stealer

hexed steppe
#

yup, beat em at their own game

radiant reef
#

but yeah, its arguably the best, but in that nature, its boring. Hence looking at other ways.

hexed steppe
#

nice thing, once stacked you only need a pickup every 5 minutes

#

bloodsucker a good option. once stacked you basically double your armor bar... same deal tho, you need the kill

radiant reef
#

I've played around with bloodsucker + intimidate

tulip charm
#

That combo is good

radiant reef
#

Its not bad at all.

#

I've been enjoying ongoing direction + vile + perfectly wicked.

#

still trying to determine is it worth going more chc or keeping with Status effects

shy willow
#

Status effects aren't worth investing in specifically for bleed

radiant reef
#

not so much the bleed but the vile mask bonus

tulip charm
#

Imo the only place where vile fits is fire eclipse. Vile doesn't do enough damage outside to be viable in other cc stuff.

#

But at the end of the day its your build

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

radiant reef
#

I've found in PVE its quite handy, softens up targets in heroic nicely, and basically destroys reds and purples. Allowing you to focus down the elites

shy willow
#

Vile doesn't scale with status effects iirc

#

It's based solely off the damage of your grenade

onyx sage
#

it does scale off status effects as well as "the damage your concussion grenade does"

radiant reef
#

50% concussion grenade + status effects

#

so in theory, if you have a 1.5m damage grenade if you have 50% status effects, it should do 1.5million damage over 10 seconds. Which should be 75000 damge per tick (2 ticks a second)

onyx sage
#

it's not 1.5mil, it's 1.5mil * 0.5 * 1.5

#

which is 1.5mil * 0.75

#

and i put "the damage your concussion grenade does" in quotes because it does inherit the formula for it, meaning it does also scale off explosive damage and other amps that buff grenade damage

radiant reef
#

ahh fair point

#

does it really though like 2 piece grupo?

onyx sage
#

yes

#

but as you can probably figure out, it's not worth it

radiant reef
#

That doesnt feel right. So far in testing its done ok

onyx sage
#

dta also affects it too btw, so holding a shotgun or capacitor is a must too

#

there are many things you have to account for when dealing status effect damage

hexed steppe
#

vile would technically be viable on any highend status build that has glass. can pretty much tick just as hard as eclipse

onyx sage
#

and vile damage too

radiant reef
#

and yeah I knew about the DTA/DTOC bonus to status effects, using an iron lung is good for that.

onyx sage
#

not dttooc

#

it's why i specifically said shotgun and not lmg

radiant reef
#

I'll have to check that but from the reading I've been doing dtoc does seem to affect it as well. Though DTA is probably better in most regards as NPCs usually bugger off to cover when damaged

tulip charm
#

hmm you can easily test it in shooting range.

#

just see the damage numbers when chucking a nade

radiant reef
#

yeah, I need to do some more experimenting,

onyx sage
#

dttooc doesn't affect any status effects at all. the easiest way to check without having to make changes to your build is to have a 2nd player join you and tell them to switch to and from the demo spec (which has the 5% dttooc group buff)

#

your status effect damage will stay the exact same in both cases if all they're changing is specialization, to and from demolisher

quasi geyser
#

i am trying this jammer pulse build in PVE
any tips on how my playstyle should be

radiant reef
#

cover cover cover

#

honestly I dont think its good enough as primary. Better off using it as a side hustle to 4 pieces ongoing directive + vile + perfectly wicked and iron lung - easier

quasi geyser
#

its just a build i am trying its not my main build i am just looking to try some new stuff

radiant reef
#

play in cover, and have a hive as well

rich lotus
#

AFK in cover and press your skill buttons 👍

#

and pray that your teammates can kill the enemies

placid latch
placid latch
#

Else it doesn't make sense to give 0.75 reducing the overall damage (going from 1.5 mil to 1.125mil)

dull ermine
#

Is there anything people have used the collector chest piece for

#

I thought it would have been a good piece but it doesn’t refill specialization grenades and the low capacity requirement kind of makes it a bit unreliable unless you toss grenades every 5 seconds

#

The only place I’ve found a use for it is DH razorback if you run out of grenades and don’t run demo

urban latch
#

even if you run out of grenades just go to the ammo box. if your at 0 grenades you'll always get 1

dull ermine
#

For real?

Never knew that

umbra, and cheska backpack with either vigi or wicked and contractors gloves and iron lung

i mean the 50% is the base multiplier

aahh sorry mis read that part of the convo

#

if you check the pins here, there is a spreadsheet with a metric ton of information on pretty much anything.
also you can quick reference with the build tool

Thats something similar to what I run

#

If you pack armour cores on the umbras its quite good defensively as well

Hey guys, what would be a build i should target to build to do solo Summit pve? Yall would recommend

rich cosmos
#

What do you want specifically

#

A lot of stuff can solo summit assuming you mean challenging and heroic difficulty

covert meadow
#

@rich cosmos i have a couple builds, but i jist figured there was something specific people used in it.

I have strikers, fire, skills build, my skills gets me kinda far until I run into the 4 leg dogs then it gets rough

#

And i was on heroic level but I dropped down to challenging now

solar sable
covert meadow
#

@solar sable ok ty 👍

radiant reef
#

Heroic is the way to play unless you have a solid legendary build for summit. Summit is much different to legendary missions, being random and that. The only thing I would strongly suggest is having a Protection from elites build when it comes to floor 100 to deal with the hunters. And the scorpio

#

with the up coming season and the buffs and nerfs what exotic weapons do people recommend to expertise

hexed steppe
#

Probably wait till the season releases. The numbers arent set in stone yet so better to wait and not waste mats

dull ermine
# latent grove What's vigi and wicked?

I don’t suggest vigilance for LMGs, companion is better in the case of umbra and just run a booster hive / turret or put your revive hive down on the floor

#

The lmg build I run is 3 pc brazos rolled red with contractors, ceska, grupo

Alternative is 2 pc petrov, ceska, grupo, contractors with 3 rolls of weapon handling (you get 15 from petrov) - 59% weapon handling .. you’ll get 69% stability, accuracy etc

#

Brazos turns mg5 and rpk into big mag LMGs - longer duration of strained and more use of flatline (rpk doesn’t use mag from gunner spec)

#

M249 is getting buffed next season so that’s a big mag lmg that will be able to handle flatline I think

#

3 pc brazos turns iron lung into a balanced gun bc low mag is just ridiculous

#

As for bp talent I run composure and chest is obliterate /spotter

#

Glass cannon not recommended because you’re constantly peaking and LMGs have a accuracy charge up

#

What I’m running as of late as a general everything build but it’s perfect for lmg

Foxes, contractors, ceska, grupo, zwiodika, 2nd petrov

#

You get some weapon handling and increase your mag size, good for rpk / mg5

radiant reef
#

honestly I think 3 piece lengmo is a better option if running LMGs, the explosive resistance and the 30% buff to LMG damage is actually massive.

#

the extra mag cap from 3 piece brazos is nice, but generally you aren't doing enough damage to make it worth it. You need the extra buffs

magic pilot
#

I'm a big 3 lengmo fan

I was hitting 500k damage and if you’re doing heroic it’s good having some armour

You can swap picaros for contractors - I was running capacitor and new reliable for a boost to armour damage as well

And as my pin says, depends on your play style and what you want to use

Eventually, I want to move over to SMG completely, once I get Ouro

onyx sage

you don't want to, because some fights encourage you to use an AR

#

smg's range is very limited

brisk hollow
#

I know, but I prefer SMG's since ( In my experience, I can be wrong, ) they do the most damage without needing alot of stacks? Just gun&run up close?

onyx sage
#

nope, because a shotgun will kill faster and stacks striker up faster too

#

smgs play in the same range that shotguns do but the upside is they get more chc

brisk hollow
#

I am so not used to swapping guns. I always run my main. It makes complete sense if you put it this way, especially with the swapping part

#

tldr; I need to learn to use two guns

onyx sage
#

once you play optimally, you'll be making use of everything you have

#

that includes your 3 equipped guns

brisk hollow
#

So in what situation would Ouro fit then?

onyx sage
#

when you fight from close to midrange, around 25m

brisk hollow
#

Right. So in your perspective, there is not a single gun that solves everything. You'r gonna be swapping at some point for optimal conditions.

onyx sage
#

exactly

#

there are builds for certain niches and there are guns for certain situations, it's just that some builds or guns are more versatile than others

brisk hollow
#

That makes sense. I come from a Hunters fury ''build'' phase where all I tried was get a high smg damage, and since Ouro came out I figured I wanted to go for that and maybe try striker. Commence the chaos and rabbitholes

#

Appreciate your input btw!

onyx sage
#

hunter's fury niche is fighting up close and has a high risk high reward playstyle, and it's used in both casual and speedrunning contexts

brisk hollow
#

That sounds like me, but I'd like to make sure I get high DPS

onyx sage
#

then you'd be considering between hunter's fury and striker

brisk hollow
#

yeah 😄 And i'm constantly switching between them

#

Some people tell me < others tell me >

#

I'm looking for High DPS, low TTK, Red core, hard hitting, up close.

onyx sage
#

what i want to say is play both

#

if you want to casually hit shots then a striker smg or hunter's fury smg will do well, but if you're willing to learn headshotting consistently and switch up your build entirely, there is headhunter's fury which lets you one tap enemies in the head up close

#

that's the build that i was alluding to that performs at the tippity top in speedrunning

brisk hollow
#

I see I see

#

I feel like going HF 4 piece with Coyote and something to multiply my smg damage + ouro sounds good, but i'm not sure if this is realistic

Random question for striker; The faster the rpm, the quicker my stacks will stack, correct? When hitting enemies? So a slow rof is not advisable?

bright raptor
#

yes

or you can grab the ACS-12 as the guide suggests to build up stacks, then swap to your low rate of fire main. Repeat as needed

brisk hollow
#

Oh man this swapping opens up a whole new world lol

#

I wonder when people swap. When stacks are full? or when the icon is half filled?

vestal ibex
#

Once you have a feel for the content and enemy health pool you can just swap after you know you'll one mag, although in most content strikers is overkill and you'll run into chasing stacks. Basically you'll do so much damage your stacks will degrade quicker than you can normally stack them with your main weapon.

onyx sage
#

suffering from success

brisk hollow
#

I'm trying really hard to build stacks, farming HF right now, with a vector, but by the time it's halfway filled the floor is cleared.

onyx sage
#

you can think of striker and HF working opposite to each other to power you up

#

in a way, striker requires the enemies to be tankier, and HF requires the enemies to be squishier

In the current patch vectors just aren't that good. The damage per mag is just too low and you'll be reloading at bad times too often. That said, with the coming update the buff to killer imo will make the dark winter one of the best guns in the game

if you like memento, keep it in place. run 4pc striker or negotiators with a ceska obliterate chest.
if you swap out memento, use gearset bag to make your 4th piece, ceska obliterate chest, and run coyote mask or grupo mask.
critical hit chance (chc) rolls/mods till you hit 50-60%, then rest of attributes into critical hit damage (chd)
your current chest talent is great for sniper builds, but not at all good for ar/dps setup

Standard red meta striker w gunner set with an explosive sticky. Use the sticky on a pack of NPC's. The blast from the resonance should create a large and deadly explosion. You will then get ammo for your Minigun. After that, you can kill and restock your minigun constantly. The minigun also sets off shields. Kills with it will continuously restock your ammo. You can easily finish off npc's who are left without shields.

#

If you don't have the explosive sticky, a grenade or the standard seeker mine works.

Nothing changes the initial aim inaccuracy you have and it would be well worth it if accuracy did reduce that time otherwise snipers are just inherently crazy accurate.

how do i hit 100% determined on my mmr build

vestal ibex
patent fossil
#

I notice when the golden bullet buff is active, with the huge handling boost it gives, snipers scope in noticeably faster. I've always assumed that was a result of stability rather than accuracy, but it might be accuracy.

vestal ibex
#

The inaccuracy I mention is basically when you scope up you have really bad accuracy and it'll get better once you stand still for a second. I'm only aware of 1 sniper that does this quicker and that's the tac 50. There are usually two vertical bars that show up and move around to show your accuracy. When not using a scope it's just the time it takes for the crosshair to come together tightly.

my main [mortar build](#td2-build-advice message) was already mentioned above.

you could also run hardwire with artillery turret and spam jammer pulse or cluster seeker. this would allow seeker or jammer to be spammed every 10 seconds while also raining mortar hell on your enemies. i dont have a ss from in game but you can use this build tool overview for reference/adjustments. just choose between capacitor/scorpio and use another weapon of your choice as secondary. seeker or jammer would be in the same skill slot with artillery proccing feedback loop an allow spamming of the other skill.

I do solo heroic content relatively easily but I am dying very quickly. Ninjabike bag is new and has replaced my memento but any ideas from people who are smarter would be dope, also since im new to the discord honestly if theres anything I should know about how things work around here lemme know since id like to start being more active

solar sable
#
  1. NinjaBike won't help with Striker's unless you replace it (again) for Memento.
  2. Regular Striker's with 3/3 blue cores & reds will be your go-to
    Striker's is meant to be run with all red cores and using cover most of the time you're shooting.
#

Build:
4pc Striker's
Ceska Chest with Obliterate talent.
Coyote's Mask (Exotic)

Everything should be rolled to Crit Hit DMG (primarily) and Crit Hit Chance.

#

Another thing to note is
Weapons should have DMG To Target out of Cover (don't listen to those who say Headshot DMG is better than DTOC because you will never always hit heads)

#

Specialization should be Gunner as it gives 10% Armor on Kill (AoK)
If you want a little more survivability I'd suggest using a Banshee smg with Preservation talent (grants AoK)

cunning summit

respect yeah im just trying to experiment, I replaced ninjabike with memento and threw on fox's prayer and just put a strikers mask on and gloves for the 4 piece, both are very melty and I cant decide which to use, granted, my striker gear is not full speced and god rolled yet so im not getting full potential but im on my way

no, you need crit chance, so you use ceska brand

to show how long its been I just got a god roll st elmos engine on summit ive been looking for, mythic pull

but yeah for the record if i ever gring for actual gear im always looking for crit chance/damage, slightly biased towards damage but if I can get a god roll on either im happy, I just want max crit striker. The last hour a 4 piece striker with fox's prayer and memento was a cake walk on heroic difficulty so if I can actually find a full max crit striker 4 piece i think ill be sittin easy

Looks to be a Stonks build to me

investor build

I'm gonna charge for the full build though

teal nova
#

Anyone pro builder willing to offer some support? I think i ahve decent gear, but need to understand how thigns work in D2

magic pilot
teal nova
#

Whats good, whats bad. I cant figure Dv2 out

magic pilot
#

Striker, Nego, hunter's fury, hotshot, eclipse fire and CC, FI healer. Are the main ones I'd recommend

#

Also OD, going to be super good next patch

#

@teal nova

teal nova
#

Heres what im starting with:

urban latch
#

This is exactly why people say ninjabike is a trap

urban latch
slate harbor
#

looking for build for solo darkzone,I expect the build has solid pve ability and also good pvp,

onyx sage
slate harbor
#

Ok

#

Is mantis sniper rifle good? Is there any good build for this sniper rifle

tulip charm
#

And sniper builds is basically 4x Hotshot, Chainkiller, and Airaldi vigilance backpack (easiest variant to build)

slate harbor
#

So it’s like something to use before I got nemesis?

tulip charm
#

Imo not really since you can pick up a gold sniper and run determined and be better off.

#

But its a decent gun on its own.

Anybody got a good HB build for season 2?

#

I know it’s getting buffed

#

In the standard DPS build once you've got 52 CHC and all CHD equipped, do you go for weapon handling or blues for the rest available attributes? I'm mostly Elmo's so weapon handling is fine by default too

magic pilot
#

It really shines on gearsets where crit is low

#

Famas with strained or fast hands

hexed steppe
#

also, only 52% chc if running coyotes, if no coyotes hit the 60% cap

magic pilot
#

I'd just use OD next patch instead of HE

#

Is it worth upgrading the expertise of the Ouroboros since the nerfs coming its way?

tulip charm

¯_(ツ)_/¯

#

Its upto you

slate harbor
#

will chameleon be good in next update? Is there a good build for chameleon?

radiant reef
#

4 piece striker + memento + oblit chest

#

and they're improving it, but its still not super meta

sharp gust
magic pilot

#

You are comparing a single stat, and Elmo has 20 more rounds

#

The burst dps on a famas will be significantly higher

#

And it will still be higher in sustain if running fast hands

versed summit
#

you're probably not running a big mag on the FAMAS either

magic pilot
#

Going off only mag dmg bullet king is the only gun we should use

versed summit

sharp gust
#

Thanks, that clarifies it a little, this probably would make sense then?

#

Or I guess swap Famas to CHC and mods to CHD

versed summit
sharp gust
#

Ah, alright

versed summit
#

technically F2000 fits in here a little better, but it's mostly preference between the two. I run FAMAS but i take DCH+regulus which utilizes the extra CHC from FAMAS better

#

because optimally you want all CHC mods on your weapon

sharp gust
#

Thanks! I'll give them both a try

placid latch
#

Don't assume you will put all the bullet on the target

#

For exemple, St Elmo is really stable allowing you to target the head more easily

Anyone have a decent Striker build advice for me please

They are balanced

#

1:2

versed summit
#

next patch is a whole different ballgame tbh, but 100%

magic pilot
#

True lol

#

High end is dethroned

versed summit
#

tbh, I'm not sold on that... HE still has more flexibility and less caveats than OD, I think there's a lot of situations where OD is going to get the advantage, and HE is also competing with a lot of other gearsets, but it still just works IMO. Ol' Reliable

magic pilot
#

Idk, once you get the bleed rounds you almost never lose it. Its nearly 100% active, especially with carnage getting a buff

#

Almost 3 million more dps as well, it'll probably still average more including uptime

versed summit
#

you can't bleed everything though, and it's a bit of overkill to have multiple OD players right?

magic pilot
#

That is true not everything bleeds

#

I think the special ammo still applies the dmg bonus though

#

Will need to test

versed summit
#

hmmmmm it may tbh

tulip charm
#

It does

magic pilot
#

Sick

#

Will have to compare in practice but I have high hopes for OD

#

I honestly think it gets better than high end the more OD players you have

slate harbor
#

will Obliterate Setup striker build still op in next update?

versed summit

Advice please. I had a couple of years break from the game and so my raid character is now not up to snuff.
For PvE is the King Breaker the one to go for? div2

#

im trying to get back into the game and just wondering about my pve build, im currently running 4 piece striker 1 piece ceska and coyotes mask. Is there something else i should try and go for now or is this still good?

onyx sage
#

it's still as good as ever

blissful sphinx
#

doesnt feel it in heroic

onyx sage
#

you have global event on or something?

hexed steppe
lone lion
#

I have 48 chance and 97 dmg

magic pilot
#

Should be 52/173

hexed steppe
#

Depends on the build. Post what you are using and maybe a ss.

#

I think elmo/ceska/coyote striker is 52/173.

#

With highend ar being around 47/153 if I'm not mistaken

hexed steppe

#

my bad! sorry am very new to the builds stuff @hexed steppe

Ceska chest already 👆

tulip charm

#

94, whats ddtoc?

onyx sage
onyx sage
#

it's the best 3rd attribute for guns outside of lmgs

hexed steppe

Yeah the brands and chest talent are solid. 4pc striker with bag is generally best for normal stuff. Striker chest comes into play when really tanky NPCs are the norm, but basically it's not needed for most content

lone lion
#

do i want top switch my grupo holster ?

hexed steppe
#

Only if adding coyote mask, otherwise its good

lone lion
hexed steppe
#

Yeah. You'll want to make sure chc in weapon first, then also on your highend secondary rolls. after that add what's needed to either mods or rolls on striker (whichever you can get the best values from)

magic pilot
#

15% chc from the gun
10% from watch
10% from ceska
12% from 2 gear rolls

#

So you need 1 extra piece to be chc roll or mod

Chameleon is a close quarters (referred to as CQB) setup in div2, so any build you use it with needs to be played within it's optimal range of 20 metres.

Does anyone know a good build for solo legendary here? Was thinking of doing a legendary summit or legendary stronghold

Looks like the clan vendor can retire already with the money he's gonna get.

I get having a full stock of it just for the fun of it, but what builds are/will require Yaahl nowadays?

#

Even HazPro setups don't really use it anymore, last I checked.

Last time I stocked up was the one time it was at the BoO vendor, but that was so long ago I should probably take another check of the stock.
