Challenge accepted, lol. I'm pretty happy with my SB, I need mats and mods to finish maxing out the roles.
I just started match making for Heroics and held my own. But then died like 4/5 times on a CP4 
What's a good tertiary for capacitor? DToC? Accuracy for more shots landed?
dttooc

I've asked but I wouldn't hold my breath.
Things get out of hand or something?
Any recommendation for a Scanner build ?
#discord-news message This is what we got and the rest is mostly speculation as to why.
scanner is not something you build around, it helps with your awareness of where enemies are
Ah. Makes sense. It's not exactly easy to keep things safe when it comes to online gaming.
Recommendation would be to not run scanner pulse. Use tech class linked laser to pulse anything you aim at
wym scanner build ? like heartbreaker ?
Like scaned enemies take more dmg or something
only if you're overcharged when you pulse
Ooh
or running spotter/flatline, in which case just use tech laser like localdeck said
flatline talent on gun and spotter on chest thats it
pulse isnt like in div 1
you could also look into heartbreaker which is based around dealing damage to pulsed enemies, but that's the set giving that bonus rather than the pulse, and optimally you don't even use the scanner pulse
the only reason i use scanner is because all the drone ones slow af or the enemy dodge them, turret one bad postion and its useless,chem launcher no dmg, firefly sometimes it just doesnt wanna blow up the enemys
chem launcher can be good
especially oxy or foam
guess i'll go with foam
oxy they just ran out of it
where can i find that ? 😅
pinned message
im lost
hub tab, the builds are ordered by type (red/yellow/blue/hybrids), to the right of the build name is a link that takes you to the build guide - mostly Evernote
'Oxy chem build' is the one you want
ooh okay found it ty
Hey is anyone running a striker build?
no
atp who doesn't
I'm trying to build mine that's why I asked. I'm trying to get a baseline
Brazen or Optimist for Shotguns for PvP?
Thanks
Also a really good guide in the pinned spreadsheet
I'll give it a look
how is this so far?
No Striker chest. Look at the Pic above for chest options.
memento is kinda good with it, there's nothing wrong imo
striker chest is still meh most of the times
He's using Striker Chest, which is the only real issue for me. Why I refer him to the picture above.
The coyote is meh, use a fenris/sokolov (ar/smg) chest piece, and ceska mask (if ar) and grupo mask (if smg). In group play coyote means even less.
Nah u
As long as you’re playing in the correct range it’s the highest damage option, and if you use your weapons to take advantage of the different range buffs, it’s even better.
Or just be consistent and dont care anout that stuff and use a high end
Whats wrong with Coyote exactly?
Nothings wrong
Just be consistent? With what dps?
I just prefer consistency
And I'm asking consistency in what exactly
Your damage varies a bit depending which range your shooting at with coyotes
Thank you. Key piece i was missing
Sorry lol
All good
Its best for groups
Other than that idk
maybe run revive hive instead of seeker for a bit more safety, up to u tho
coyote still gonna be the higher damage output at mid and close ranges. if youre constantly proccing long buff on dps, thats on the player, not the gear piece
Trying to figure out why they’re playing on normal. That’s the first time during the XP event I haven’t gained any levels from taking a CP. And unlike the previous guy these ones all have decent builds
trying to figure out why you stuck with them 
Oh I left as soon as we finished lol
Hello, anyone know a good website or source for builds?
I reached 40 and I'm keeping most of my loot and will start tinkering and extracting attributes so I can make builds.
Thanks!
Just completed my first build today, the best advice I can give you is
Plan it out, figure out what sorts style your gameplay is, what weapon types you wanna use, then think about gear pieces and gear sets that can compliment playstyle/weapons
And then Write it down
This channel, look at the builds spreadsheets in pins
Apart from the chest piece the rest is complete and that’s from 3/4 days farming gear and extracting attributes and talents
ok it's not that bad
Well it completes my stiker 4 piece bonus, gives me a 2 piece bonus in the fenris and I needa swap out the gloves for a pair of palisade one
Mainly a solo player so need the extra armour and health cl
Plus I’ve Litro jus finished it so I’m not rushing to swap it up already ygm
What would you recommend for back pack talents
striker backpack
I have never seen such aberration
that also finishes the 4p
Yeah I had the backpack with lower attributes
Switch it to a striker backpack, there's your 4th piece
Well yeah ig it gives me the damage increase per stack too
it's a big increase
So ninja bike not a good backpack ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
it has never been good
Oh swear
Started playing again after a 2 year break got no clue what’s good n what’s not
most of the brands you get with it aren't very useful for most of what you do
we've got a spreadsheet pinned here
Ah I see I’ll take a look
but it does have uses
Snm I’ll swap it out and farm for higher rolls on the striker bop
heck, there's even worse options
Bp
What about assault rifles
I’m tryna get the st Elmo’s or eagle barer to replace the chameleon
Does the st Elmo’s drop from exotic caches?
yes, EB doesn't
A high end AR can work just as well
True say true say
Snm, heard it drops in the DZ at a low rate but anytime I’ve gone in there I get molested
So I’ll stick to doing the raid
It does but has very low drop rate and like you said you have to extract. Not worth it, just do dark hours
Sounds good bro
I’ll try see if I can find a group to do it with
What’s the eagle gear set
Tbf I did pull a decently rolled Scorpio ealrier
Now wen I used to play had everyone telling me the bullet king was shocking to use in a build
Is it still the same or is there a viable lmg build?
it's a decent option
striker as always
Ooooo perfect
you could use the build you had earlier, just replacing ninjabike with striker backpack and it will work just fine
well striker is just the most efficient one to use with low complexity
you can use it with others like OD, nego
or high end only
I just like the damage output especially wen I do most stuff in the game solo
all are viable, depends on what kind of performance you want
Makes it a lot easier ygm
nothing wrong with going striker
High end builds put out alot of dmg. It's what alot of the old raiders use in raids cause there's no need for stacks, your always gonna shoot your best
we still do, especially in IH
That's what i was saying. Striker should only be used by new raiders cause they can farm it easily, after a few clears they should use high end and striker only in specific situations. Just my opinion tho
yeah i get you
for my Strega Crit build, is Coyote's mask a better choice or should I go for Memento?
coyote is always the stronger option. memento is great but it is weaker by comparison. its preference at end of the day
best guns for this regen build?
go with preference. there isnt gonna be any damage anyways. you cant really take advantage of the chest talent since you wont be generating bonus armor.
I normally do, I was just doing some challenges with the seeker
ok, how can I increase the Crit Damage without reducing my Crit Chance?
currently heavily relying on equipment Attrivutes + Mods to reach the 50% chance mark, but the damage is lacking
are you playing with HDR on per chance?
yes
Do you not mind the weird washed out colours?
that's what screenshots look like from f12
if I use print screen, it becomes much more oversaturated.
but that's not what it looks like on my screen
new meta?
looks more like this
anyway, is there a way to up Crit damage while atleast keeping 50% crit chance?
get shd to 1000
take advantage of 5x xp
oh, so keep leveling. understood.
Summit it is for a while then
ah, weird, when i play with HDR is washes out my colours.
but circling back to your question, you could try using a Czeska chest (personal preference)? it also looks like your backpack doesnt have a mod equipped.
SHD leveling your crit chance/ dmg also, yeah
wanna try the refractor set, just dunno what works well with it
i have the same build, but shd level helps. im not built into crit chance, but imo i would sacrifice some of it for crit dmg
what secondary do yall think would be good in this?
That’s mainly a rifle build right?
Seems like almost a raid dps build
ehh you can run a rifle
just using the fox prayer knee pads for dmg out of cover
Whucha thinking on this. Mainly used for legendary runs
Good healer build if you change specialization and bp talent
That's a old photo. I have since changed the talent to safeguard and the specialty to the one with the cross bow can't think of the name
Run Scopio and a lefty and change the backpack to oppoortunistic
Okay
Survivalist
Survivalist thank you
Survivalist or Tech works
Id change to technician but thats more personal preference
EMP nada are clutch when used at the right time with sledge
Esp if you’re using ut for legendary
The best backpack would be getting the "The Setup" for the Perfectly Opportunistic buff
Since it’ll always be tusk
Idk why I'm typing this all. If you search this channel for my name and FI healer there a full guide for it all here.
Do I need to have concussion grenade equipped to get the 50% damage dealt while using the Vile mask?
quick question fellas, i'm following one of the simpler pvp builds from the spreadsheet
what is meant by 15% weapon dmg/chd?
The attributes are weapon damage and crit hit damage
they are probably crit hit chance and crit hit damage actually
that's what i thought, seems like that's what everything else is supposed to be
1 piece grupo gives 8% crit chance (nerfed) this build uses an Armor core so NO weapon damage, minor are chc and chd
regular highend weapons can run 15% chc, youll be missing 10% from strega. ceska chest can give you chance. make chance a primary focus for your watch, thatll make future builds a lot easier
you mean ceska, right % tho gramps 
does the secondary equipped weapon contribute to chc?
only when in hand, or if it says it boosts something when you swap away, like busy little bee pistol talent
Are there classified sets in division 2?
@slender mirage Nope!
okay thanks
btw do u guys know how much hot shot sniper should be doing on the first shot? before stacking up
I only do like 5 mill per headshot without buffs. so I find it hard to stack initially cus of how overwhelmed I get without stacks
when I stack up also im only doing like 3X mil damage
enough to kill any red bar/rusher
idk if thats good or not
I rarely see red bars ngl
except in open world
there are many even in missions
just focus a rusher otherwise, its the same
they squichy af
or a sniper even
the only thing is to get the momentum started
well I think 5 mil damage is not enuf
for those rushers or red barsusually I need 2 shots
I usually use my 1886 to stack the firs ttime
i dont do 5m and i kill a red bar easily
then I use the sniper to continue
but if you need a hard shot to start : spec weapon
you dont start with a rifle
you always start with a sniper
im using a good M700 tactical
guys is there any use for the purple chemistry gun?
with a 1886 on the other slot
but like usually I lose stacks when fighting a juggernaut
what is that ?
dont shoot the chunga until you have max stacks to pop its helmet
idk how its called properly in englishðŸ˜ðŸ˜ðŸ˜
max stacks isnt enuf either
you mean oxidizer ?
yes
liek I shoot once the stacks are gone since it didnt kill him
then your build is wrong, max stack should pop any chunga helmet
there is an oxy build in spreadsheet if you want i think
what is it for?
wym ?
i mean whats the use of it
ok thanks
Do u guys know of a good 1886 hotshot setup?
or is that not possible? if I want to get the 1886 sniper setup I need to farm a whole new set of gear ðŸ˜
pin message --> spreadsheet --> sniper setup
yeah I know
I saw that. I already got this setup but then I saw the 1886 setup was like complete different and I am reluctant to farm again for another build
well u can run it with that. Why u want to change some pieces? just run a 1886 with determined
idk why but the 1886 setup in the page looks like this
maybe because hotshot doesn't increase rifle damage
only mmr damagebut my 1886 is already doing decent damage with my hotshot setup
I see. I was using 1886 cus the fire rate was faster
and I needed something for short- medium range
I was hoping I could go with a shield and play my build like a striker but 1 shotting them lol instead of sustained dps
Drunk punch isn't worth for that slot.
Unless your using Regg more
Rifle can do 1headshots
but you need to know how to build your HH stacks
Dodge City with Regulus, Boom! Headshot
IDK I just run HF
I wasn't having issues with the rifle with my current build. i was just hoping to optimise it since I realised hotshot is MMR damage
but I like getting in closer.
I was doing well with my 1886 already with my hotshot setup I just felt like maybe I could make it better
Go HF
I wasn't having issues with head hunter stacks
I mean for 4heroic or leggo
cus it would oneshot anyway after stacking up. and the dps is higher than my rifle cus it fire sos much faster
I still do like 5 mill per head without stacks
idk what is HF
I already have a hunter fury build bro. I just enjoy one shotting
Does the Gaffer Tape - Damage Reduction mod on the Feed slot (small cannon) on the striker drone mean the drone takes X.X% less damage, even though it's on the Feed slot?
All I run it HSD on my HF
the clear speed is so much faster. I need to optimise my hunter's fury build alot
and that needs me to farm the black tusk and hyena tactical assesments
I was tired of hunter fury because I can't even reach 1 mill per bullet
while my friend can
okay. I mean thats good for you but my HF build isn't that strong yet
it was easier for me to put together that sniper build ngl
I need to optimise my coyote mask and my gun
Hotshot is easy to build.
my damage isn't alot for some reason. I get like 800k damage per bullet at max stacks
But you have the parts to do HH HF just fine.
my friend got 1.2 mil somehow
I already have a HF build bro. I just like the sniper build more
You have DTooC??
That's why then
im following this.
why do people recommend the spreadsheet if it is not optimised?
Ya Raucey guide
wdym?
all of your weapons should have DTooC
The author of the guide.
Or DTooC? Damage to Target out of Cover.
it says the damage to target out of cover should be the third attribute
Just showing. The damage different from being perfectly optimised semi isn't crazy big.
You said otherwise...
bro im so confused. it doesnt say anywhere to go DTOOC
I read the whole thing already
its on gear, not on weapon
you cant have dttooc on gear except fox prayer
I see. Okay thanks.
if I change all my gear to DTOOC I can't get 50% crit chance lol
What are you trying to build a Striker or a 1 HS build?
you CANT change your gear to dttooc
okay thanks.
I was asking if you had it on the weapon or not.
IDK how we go to CHC and CHD when were taling about HS builds.
should I go intimidate or obliterate?
STOP.. What are you building.
Hunters fury
and asking advice for.
dude just follow the build on spreadsheet nothing else
Ok.. What kind of HF are you trying to do?
striker build. ur the one that said HH sucks bro. and that I should go HF
you're asking question that have no purpose
thats what I frekaing did. this guy is confusing me its not my fault
no he asked the right question you just confused gear and weapon
idk. the simplest one and easiest to farm. I already followed the spreadsheet
The one you read is for Strikers...
......
I didn't ask for striker. u said I should go Hunters fury build
after I asked about HH originally
just follow the spreadsheet
thats it
I got dtooc on my weapon on hh
I already did that.
I wasn't asking you anything bro.
ur the one that told me to go HF because I was asking about my HH build
Yeah. Go HF with HSD since you're using 1886.
man
IDK I thought I gave a simple answer.
just stop
Naw. Last one. Keep it easier.
Sir get those blues off immediately
murrr lazy
I keep seeing that backpack brandset lately on the most random builds.
Is it bugged or something?
idk but its scary
15% mag size doesn't really seem all that crazy worth it.
I guess if you don't need the crit, what else are you going to use.
i'd use a brand to get weapon damage
or crit damage
cause why wouldnt you need crit
or headshot damage idk, just not mag size
The thing is, I see it a lot on Strikers setups. Wat.
Since when is more innate CHC not useful?
If it's just a boredom thing, sure why not.
Normally if people run Zwia it's either the 2 piece or the named gloves
@hazy steeple so I got rid of that ninja backpack on my refractor build we discussed a few weeks ago .. lol yeah it’s much better with out the ninja
I put the Hana force multiplier on there which I already had and then I’m using the waveform holster … 4 piece refractor including the chest all skill dmg and skill haste (mostly cause I couldn’t think of a to better) and it’s really good
Same Idea, but everything is weirder:
I have a variant that uses Hollow man instead of punch drunk
All headshot and weapon handling.
Total meme build
The 1886 Reload speed is below 2 seconds with a 9 round mag
u can put a hana u chest with skill dmg, skill haste nd glass canon. More dmg more heal u will have
There's two main ways to run HF. The crit setup mainly with smgs, and the headhunter setup with the regulus/determined magnum, shotguns, and also the 1886 is a very good option on there. That's what chow was suggesting.
There's also a 1886 specific setup in here
https://lite.evernote.com/note/ee351aec-69d7-ae1d-ecfd-b79c6d55fd20
Also I remember why. From taking backup calls with modifiers and always catching fire.... I but ya I need to take them off.
I just threw up a picture. It's not the right stuff on it too for everyone.
Good capacitor build
Are you wanting a good capacitor build or are you commenting on someone else's?
is it pvp or pve ?
well im not sure if pvp is worth it for me atm im lvl 75
im working on getting an exotic AR but i have legit no luck
then get a grupo chest with obliterate instead, also change your glove to something with crit
you should aim to get 50% crit chance and everything else to crit damage
ok thank you
Is the MR set good with Dread Edict?
not really
Ah okay, thank you.
@leaden swift Im also trying to get exotic AR you wanna farm together?
how many stats(damage, armor, health) I need to solo Tidal Basin (Legendary) ?
you'll get oneshot with that build
i dont think you can solo tidal bassin
especially not with bk striker
I only get to shred Elite's armor and then I died. hahaha
called it
I build my gears around my Bullet King since that the only good exotic I have. I'm grinding for exotic but I keep getting duplicates
Ceska*
if your build isnt perfect, you def cant do legendaries alone
just farm better gear on countdown challenging
I did legendary solo with this
No expertise, not fully optimized and shd watch not max
tidal bassin ?
DUA
yeah, thats def not the same
the 3 turret at the end of tidal bassin are way harder than dua
dua is a walk in a park compared to this
You would just run pfe in the last room
Same build throughout the whole mission till the last area
pfe wont save you from 3 turret that obliterate you on the spot
3 pfe is like 36% damage resistance, and our tank was almost obliterated with 4 times the armor and pfe on his build
and there isnt just turret, there are all the grenadiers, drone operators, chungas, etc
which spawn endlessly until all turrets are dead
you cant say skill issue when numbers dont match
the turrets don't count as elite
a tank with pfe being destroyed mean a not tank with pfe will get obliterated
but every enemy is elite
lol even worse
rate plss
if you know how to rush to the right generator and kill it, you can hold out in that corner
The Turrets are extremely easy to destroy if you know what you are doing
find a better chest, otherwise good build
strikers chestplate?
no, get crit stats on both, not yellow
Does MODS only available to Helmet,Bag, and Chest?
yes
you don't need an exotic weapon to be strong btw
i soloed master with no exotics no expertise
Most exotics are not best for dmg
except ouro
it has the highest base damage ?
When I started playing I only look at the Core Attri. Weapon Damage. hahaha
smg-9 with measured go brrr
And no talent
And it doesn't have the highest base dmg it has the highest base dps
alr now rate 1-10
thats what i mean when i say base damage
otherwise it would be nemesis every single time
That's not the same though
7/10
base damage within smg is what we understand
Not interchange terminology
yes it is, people dont recommend nemesis for striker cause of its base damage
suggestions?
ceska chest
use ceska instead of fenris for chest
alr
im saying base damage, not damage per bullet
That's also not the same
base damage = damage per bullet x rpm
base damage is the literal constant the game has
you know reload is a thing right ?
you know what was getting to
look who's wrong now
if you want to talk burst vs sustained we can but i'm making it simple
saying "you know what i mean"
????
there is literally the thing called base damage
it's the one constant that every gun has
don't redefine it to suit your narrative
No lol
yes right here
okay if you want to be pedantic, damage per minute (ignoring reload) = damage per bullet × rpm
you cant ignore reload
yes you can
unless bk, no
because some situations you do not reload
you can just do it in one mag, as you just said
different metrics for different use cases
go and ask any other theorycrafter and see if they agree with your definition of "base damage"
do you think they agree you dont reload ingame ?
thats what you did tho
okay you can be pedantic all you want
im not
im applying to you the same rethoric you did to me
dont like it ? dont do it
how do you define the number that a weapon does in one bullet?
said it before : damage per bullet
okay what if it crits?
damage per bullet on crit
okay what if it hits a head?
damage per bullet on headshot
okay what if it's on diamondback?
do you see a pattern now ?
no, do you see the pattern?
yes
it's context
not really
"damage per bullet" without any context is open to interpretation
there is no context here
what's the user's weapon damage? what's their crit?
thats why i said base damage, not 6 red core damage
if you ask anyone's "damage per bullet" for the same gun you'll get different numbers because they don't understand what the context is
see, i'm not
It's entirely build dependent
i'm not even saying it's on gear or weapon
and you just interpreted it on your own
see the problem?
No one is using a build with no additional stats
Also burst dps is measured with no reload speed taken into account
yes, thats why we compare weapon with each other on the same build, not on different build
which is... context
which is the same
hey folks, is the optimization cache worth?
litterally said its same gear
Not really
I seem to be struggling with those mats
you dont compare different weapons with different builds
we can compare different builds
And I'm saying not, so how would you measure
How do I farm them?
Wdym I do it all the time
bruh, if you compare different build and different weapon, then nemesis is the highest base damage, thats it
no comparison
You are the one stuck on base dmg lol
im following your logic
redefining terms, ignoring context, isn't that what we do as rigorous theorycrafters?
i told that at the beginning, you refused, now you explain more your logic, and it still apply
No one measures base dmg, its burst dps and sustain, one shot dmg is really only for HHing
Your original argument is Ouro is the highest dps smg, because it has the highest base dps. Which is incorrect. It has the highest base but is not the highest dps smg
see, you could just have started with that
I did.
instead of being pedantic all the way
you redefining what "base damage" is doesn't help
i didnt
Depends on which mats you need. Control points are good for the flags/field recons.
Bounties are good for the tactical assessments just make sure you’re farming the correct faction.
Shd calibration/clipboard are kinda hard to get, so getting it from your watch /countdown/projects
The rest are from deconstructing gear
You said Ouro has highest base dmg, which is not correct
I'm sure someone else can say whether you did or not
no, it doesn't have all the context you desperately want me to attach
Which are different things
so either you know what i mean, or you dont play that card
you cant have it both ways
no, i don't know what you mean
You are using the wrong terminology lol
then dont pretend i do
because i leave it up to interpretation
No one knows what you mean
there are correct interpretations
not your interpretation of base dps
if everyone attaches all the qualifiers in their language when talking about something, we would still be monkeys
didnt you said something about being rigorous just before ?
or you could grow a pair and begin to take into account context
yes, not everything has to be spelled out
or is that just me that need to be rigorous and you can do whatever you want its fine when you do, but not when i do ?
because i assume you're a grown adult who can read context
i also read double standards
It's not a double standard
i think i'm done, the point is all over the floor
it is
That's how burst is calculated lol
thats not what he said
You are talking about sustain when you talk about reload
he said dpm
Dps- means burst dps usually unless you specify
i didnt say dps
most people who know what i'm talking about immediately understand this as burst dps
Dpm/60s is burst dps lol
can you guys stop arguing and move along already?
yeah but thats not what he said
can we hug?
see, double standard, you use the wrong words
Because everyone understands how to find dps from dpm lmao
nobody talk about dps
yap yap yap
nope, thats why reloads are a thing
That's sustain dps
thats my whole point
then he is wrong
Sure if that's how you understand it
no, thats how maths work
the damage formulae are already established
I'll end the conversation here, next time you spread misinformation I'll be here to correct you like always
im the one correcting averageplayer
next time dont talk about sustain dps without reload
no one appreciates it anyways
glad we can sort this out
could someone give me advice on a good pvp build
Check the pinned guides
Omfg......
lmao
Please I beg you... Look into what these terms mean...
not the point i made
What you were looking for there was sustain DPS. It's been explained to you over and over, but what your calling base damage is burst damage. Terms mean things so we can communicate
I read the whole thing. You made an incorrect statement then doubled down on incorrect terms.
Yes
Can you get me the base damage of literally any gun?
We're starting at the most basic point here and working up
There is no lower...
yes there is : maths
There is no math for this answer
There is not for base damage. It's a number directly from the game, and a term used by the game
no, its a term used for any game, not just the division, doesnt require numbers yet
Raucey don’t bother bruh ðŸ˜
you're so far from the point i made, its gonna take days
Very specifically the game uses the term base damage. Can you get me the base damage of literally any gun?
stop dodging
Can you get in the game right now?
no i cant get in the game right now, and it doesnt matter, stop dodging my point
Exactly what point are you trying to make
double standards
The point in question:
Reminds me of Fog of War
When he made that hilarious DPS math video and said EB has best burst DPS cause of its reload speed ðŸ˜
So you've got no point your trying to make here...
already made it
Cool. Can you get me the base damage of literally any gun?
DM me when you can
What double standard lol
the one i talked about the entire time
That’s not the POINT Raucey
it is
BRO JUST SAY IT
i tried, you intantly jump to ask me base dps of a weapon
If its that obvious please tell us because gaslighting is just sad
I might be confused, are you using the typical definition of a double standard or one you made up?
I'm trying to start at the absolute basics, and work up to these other terms
does it matter since you made up the answer in your mind anyway ?
not like we were starting from the sane base
I'm trying to teach you something here
You are impossible to have a conversation with
so am i, yet you dont seem to understand im not inferior to you
Safe to just say you’re dodging cause you know you’re wrong
stop talking like im stupid and listen to what i say
i made my point, you completely dodged it
then started to ask me about base damage
then you expect me to act as if everything is normal
So you felt insulted that Raucey wanted to take it from the basics to understand something?
no
Yes obviously
ok bud
Anyone got a good starter build for countdown?
I have a build but I was told strike drone and turret skill build was a no no
Striker
Striker build will work well
there's a good guide in the pinned spreadsheet
Yellow striker with turrent drone!!
What's the best way to farm that? Only shd lvl 100ish so my DPS for challenging is a bit lacking. And hard is slow to farm ðŸ˜
you have to define what "inferior" means too...
Best way to farm is to do Countdown lol. Just do it on challenging and let others carry
just don’t bring damage skills and they can carry you till you get a decent dps build going
Oh they’re a no no for a lot of reasons but yeah that’s one of them
but yeah you don't really need a super optimized build for countdown. 8 players plus pretty significant buffs make it pretty manageable
I love my capacitor refractor build though 😦
But gotta adapt for different stuff. I knew I'd have to build something different eventually
that's part of the fun of the game, getting to make different builds for different content
Learning the right way 🥹
Is there a website I can find a list of what I need for a striker build? I have a st Elmo assault rifle
Hit the search icon and go to pins in this channel
there's a guide in the pinned spreadhseet
Assuming you’re on mobile
I'm playing on my tablet lol
Oh!
Cloud gaming through xbox
I get lag every now and then but over all it's amazing
got another question about the way this is laid out
for all of the gear pieces, is it required for each piece to be specifically the brand mentioned?
for example, does the chestpiece specifically need to be grupo? or could it be any of the other 4 brands used here?
bc the brand set bonuses will be the same right? so the important thing is the right attributes and talents
ye u can swap em around
GCROCK has a countdown video on the YouTubes that I found invaluable as a new player. Made it way less intimidating going in knowing what to expect from the encounter and what most other players expectations.
Because of Countdown I went from getting carried to actually being a productive agent.
only the named items are locked
right
was just gonna say that ;p
ok, that makes this slightly less painful of a process
that groupo chest is so painful to find still looking for mine ...
same lol
i found one that's otherwise perfect except it has vanguard instead of unbreakable
the bag u can get away with by just slappin on talent
Generally you want to match make on challenging and just follow the highest SHD level person on you team (stay with the group) and DO NOT use Assault Skill (e.g. Turrets and drones) because they will get hacked and used against you. And DO NOT call for the Evac chopper (let another agent call for Evac with about 10 seconds left.)
tempted to say that's close enough, but unbreakable seems like one of the more important pieces of that build
yh ubreak is needed ;[
Trying to find a good ouroboros build but can’t find one
pvp or e?
What’s it better in??
I have a decent big horn regen build for pvp so maybe pve
from my experience its decent in both but i dont use it often lol ill share the pve one anyway
Is the ouroboros bad?
this what i use
Damn
it's still good
Good or should I use something else that’s better?
Cuz I just got it yesterday so I was thinking to make a build but if it’s that too great then scratch it
its pretty fun in pve tbh u can just slap it in with hb or striker easy
lvl 1 guy here, i got a question...are sniper builds viable for endgame content ? i jkust came over from div 1 and i dont want to play another striker build
yes, its one of the strongest setup
The only thing that sucks is I’m hitting 1.3 mil full striker stack with st Elmo but same build but with ouroboros I’m only hitting 400k
cool...i need to unlock my 1st skill, what should i go for as a sniper ?
dont bother until you're lvl 40, thats not until a while, and you have much to unlock until then
until then, you gonna change gear and weapon every few lvl
as he said dw till lv 40 but this is the sort of builds most guys run
Until you get a chest with the headhunter talent, don't worry about snipers
yeah everything rely on headhunter talent
im just tired of running and guning on div 1 😄
i mean skill builds are a thing too
but yeah striker is still the best thing overall cause it adapts to almost everything
Requesting suggestions, looking for some gearset that allows high survivability.
I just got the game recently and I seen a lot of hunter fury build with SMG, so what is the best place to farm hunter fury?
id either decent or summit with targeted loot set to hunters fury
HF or HB.
Sorry, what are these abbreviations?
Hunter Fury or Heartbreaker
Got it, thank you!
Any particular reason why?
cause they give sustain/shield
Look in the Pinned Messages
Also just having survivability isn't great in this game. Things need to died.
should ichange crit hit dmg to weapon handling for 1 shot build?
Weapon Handling
Hey guys, returning player here. Any good source of solid builds?
Question
Does the Pulse effect proc Vindictive?
no, pulse is not a status
Thank you so much!
ofc
I don't understand the Pulse. specially the attachment of technician, is just like Ping or Marking your enemy?
Essentially yes
The reason it's useful is because an overcharged pulse gives you a huge dmg amplification, and can be used to proc flatline/spotter
also see enemies through walls
Ohh. I see.
But I stay away from skill/technician build when I experienced emp every floor in summit. Hahahaha
use Technician + Spotter on a regular weapon DPS build with a weapon that accepts the Technician laser and has Flatline rolled
it does restrict weapon choices but it's very competitive in terms of damage
The issue with this with AR is that losing CHC makes you have to stats into more CHC and takes away from CHD which overall yes you're getting more DMG but it does mess with the build.
IMO if I'm on HB with this I just got Measured to help build more stacks a lil more quickly.
Where did you find that. I need that chain killer
just W&H TL
W&H target loot is not anywhere at the moment
Checked NYC too and no TL for right now. Will check in 9 hours again
matchmake countdown
Do you have a source for this?
Me
Alright, thanks. Had a friend wanting to know where it came from and I had no idea
Yeah I made that during the last big update
Just takes the rank of burst, sustain and attachments and weighted average to whatever you use
guys what should i do if i want my status effects to go through my enemies' armor, cuz they just dont
You cant
The only way to bypass armour is poison iirc but there's like only 1 or 2 way# to apply it and it's weak asf
dang, thanks
Do you think this is good enough to do a run of paradise lost?
Show the stats
yeah, looks fine
You sure? I don't wanna be a burden on my team
are your crits ~50/~110?
Maybe? I don't have perfect stats on everything but they're all decently high
yeah I know, don't worry, just make sure to follow the team and beam everything that moves except the Lovebirds area, they'll tell you what to do
I just feel like I'm gonna die too easily and make us wipe a bunch
The mechanics are easy
DPS doesn't need survivability, you mostly need to kill everything
I'll try my best
Hopefully I can find a team
I was thinking of swapping the chest piece and gloves manufacture
no need, that's a good setup
Kk, wish me luck then hope it goes well tomorrow
This not a bad build at all for your shd Level. Just make sure you keep focusing on getting the maximum chc and chd for you. And not to mention weapon damage and specialization
Chc and chd?
short for crit chance and crit dmg
just as fine
Thx for the help
Generally Striker Chest is better for Incursion
You'll want strikers chest. Backfire is very strong tanker onwards, and bloody knuckles is huge for the bosses
Bloody knuckles if you have it too
I have 3 exotic amour pieces, 2 are ass and the other is Coyote's mask
I've only been playing this game for like a week
Didn't we just have this conversation in another discord lol
Probably
I just like to double check
I got a strikers chest
So I'm good for that part
I was thinking of that..
Why does happen more often these days.
y'all getting old
Same guy, got the same answers lol
HEY...... I can still think age is a number
👀
it really is
I'm just making sure, people giving me destiny 2 advice has made me doubt people sometimes
Sorry
you can trust the average player
We're not Destiny players at allll
Good to know
at least there is a monopoly on good info for a couple of the biggest communities
Chow is top 10 for most incursion clears in the world
idk, he loves determined now 👴
Average player is a top speedrunner don't let the name fool you
I guess being a game that doesn't get a lot of major content weeds out the bad and toxic players
🥲 don't need to remind me of my pain I did to myself.
Nah not really tbh
more like toxic players get humbled here.. pretty quickly
there's a lot of casual players in this game's playerbase. that's not a bad thing in itself, it's just when they start giving advice to other gullible players that issues arise
sorry, "advice"
We like helping and teaching or at least point you in the right direction.
AT the least... Some don't understand that.
Just because you don't understand how base dmg works doesn't mean it's bad advice sir
5pc improv and nbb is an example
...................................
it boosts ALL brands in the game sir
lmaooo
I was told in the official destiny discord to use double special in the big 2025 which is a crazy thing to say
So you can see why I double check but I trust y'all advice
I learn the other day they have voice mod bots in some of there VC.
you should be double checking any of our words
I'll make some adjustments tomorrow and do my first run of paradise lost
we encourage that
Hope it goes well
I'll be around tomorrow if you end up needing an extra player
Do it in GCrock and you'll find one of the few of us that'll help you and teach it to you.
dammit I need a pc
I'm UK so I don't know if out time zones will line up well
Theirs a lot of us all around the world.
No pc in the big 25
yeah you do.. gonna need to start a gofund me
Is there a video of the world's first clear of the raids?
there should be
My next challenge to carry incursion on a steam deck.
Oh no
currently playing in a xpotato one
my next challenge is solo zoo no expertise no exotics
I'm cst, but I'm literally free the entire day tomorrow
cst is 6 hours behind the uk
Raids or incursion?
Raids, I saw the first team got a picture in the white house right?
I'll DM and see if you're free when I'm up
Fs
Yea I think they were live streamed
It took a long time
it's a big thing to be the first to beat them
I feel like that has to be a requirement to be worlds first right?
Otherwise what's just stopping people from cheating or something
Oh no
was doing manning for project, just heroic, and been kinda running it a bit different for a little quicker clear. 3 runners for mop up and bomb setting, and i sit up top with eclipse presetting spawns to burn... had some dude try staying up top with oxpecker... was kinda comical seeing that ring laser hitting nothing
yep was gonna talk about that
There's some serious raid lore
Do people think the world's first team cheated?
werent the raid details prereleased
they got insider info yes
to a few
They were streamers with very detailed google doc with how to beat it
Incursion, as far as I'm aware didn't have any mechanics leaked
tbh i doubt devs had such a doc in the first olace
Although I have no idea how they actually intended the lovers fight because it seems like it would've been insanely hard
the speedruns for either are a lot more impressive for me , as opposed to first clears
i remember raucey trying to ask devs or something
They will never admit to it
I'm sorry what
Widdz I think was the one who leaked it
That should be grounds for immediate disqualification
He was banned for a year or something like that
And his runs were removed from LB iirc
Did they get the prize or was it given to the real worlds first?
There is a picture going towards the clan hall of the white house of the team
Same for iron horse
That's pretty cool
One name is in both pictures and thats solidfps
Hopefully I enjoy the raids, anyway I'm gonna sleep now, thanks for the help
Sleep tight
Thanks
as an old player returning looking to make a new red set for general use whats the go to high end dps set nowadays?
Nothing really has changed for HE dps builds.
uh the last time i was active was like 2020 or something
my go to dps build was this. idk if its changed
tho i did see ppl rocking strikers or smth on yt
is that the meta now
i assume i cant get the lvoa so whats the next best primary
care with most of the new video for this game. there's a too much content "creating" there
yes im aware
thats why im here asking
whats the next best primary? lexington cant be obtained
unless reddit is wrong
i want the ouro so bad
ouro is new exotic smg right?
Look in the Pinned Messages
is running both viable?
not new it's year old
like running ar primary then ouro secondary
Anything is viable tbf
ouro is the incursion exclusive exotic
well anything that came out in the last 3 years is prob new to me
Like I said go check out the Pinned Messages and it'll catch you up
my loadouts are a mess because i was speedrunning before i quit and now i dont know what the builds do at all lmao
Yea my was as bad for IH speed too
did they fix the leaderboards
Yes?
i logged in last year to take a peek and the boards were messed up
i still cant jump to myself
Go to find the public discord easier to make groups there and learn.
jump to me is greyed out
They may have reset during your time?
oh hmm
I'm fairly new vs you
wasnt aware they ever reseted
uh yeah the WR back then was like 19 mins and i had a 20 min time i think
my time was like top 20
i see they managed to cut it down to 14:52 now lol
um where do i go to farm the striker stuff
or what do i do
summit is a good place to farm the gear cause you can change the targeted loot
is it still floor 100 farming
no clue i reset at floor 99
yup they did... man it was nuts.
Summit and Countdown
You can target loot
either one is better its personal preference
i dont think that was a thing back then
i guess i needa do the main mission first?
i never did the mission
theres hunters in the countdown
not like how it is in summit at floor 100 being hunters
No challenging. It's kind of a raid but not.
yeah i think we used to just refarm floor 100 on repeat with nem and a&e build
Heroic people will fail it because everything are bullet sponges.
