Oh yeah memento is fine. Just run it as a crit setup, not headshot
In group play, if you aren't getting kills, you aren't getting the maximum value out of it.
^^ this. In group play run striker bag
It's okay for giving two skill tiers to your shield in solo play but I still wouldn't run it in that context.
As a solo player majority of the time by preference, I approve of memento. Group play where you struggle with kills at times, not worth it
COD2 was the absolute peak of online gaming and I will not argue this point.
I see 🤔
You should do leggo with me and Bile
for me i was hooked on Counterstrike. 2 modems did make a tad difference in playing XD
I got a goofy build I recently made
might be perfect for it
2 actually
For me, cod MW2 was. Cod 4 was where it all hit the hardest tho
evee gave me an idea i'm trying to get. no luck so far
Nothing like entering in an MW2 lobby and the whole lobby talking smack and that random 6 year old screaming on the mic 😭😭😂😂
God MW2 was like the Fortnite of my teens
😫
I was lucky to experience it when I did. I was so damn young but GOD the community was there. It was golden. Nothing can match it
The slurs really tied the game together.
BO2 is when it was at its highest peak
I was 19...dammit stop it 🤣🤣
YES. You know it. We all know it 😂
One cod experience I wish I could bring back was MW2. Modern day cod, id revive all the OG warzone maps. Rebalance all the MW19 guns, Cold War, and Vanguard. Both cod parties would be so happy
Greatest game ever made?
Orcarina of Time.
I'll die on this hill.
OH RIOT SHIELD, I'M A [expletive] THAT USES RIOT SHIELD
😂😂😂😂😂
That video kills me every single time
Mom get the camera!!! God... Trickshotting was so perfect back then. I was such a big faze fanboy
You might be playing with fire my boi be careful 😂 but that's good to ask
YUM YUM YUM YUM YUM
Sorry, standards and all that
Bro is literally self-sadist talent
If y'all could revive 1 game what would you guys revive? Id revive Halo 3
Black and White 1
Orcarina of Time, UE5 remake
Black and White was hilarious 😂
the bits i remember? totally, but i never figured it out. now i think i could probably play it a lot better
Used to spend hours just picking up villagers and throwing them around
Alright. What's a modern game you cannot stand? I have to give this one to R6 Siege
can we say division 2 even though we still play it? (> <)
Fkn felt. FELT.
Fortnite, and anything that has similar graphics.
Rocket league.
FIFA
Every COD made after 2005.
The list is endless
That seemed pretty finite.
I could go on...
One day I joined a Siege server with a Chinese name and one guy immediately threw slurs at me
that a real thing
MW19/MW3 2023 were pleasant experiences for me tbh for cod. I love how both of those cod games felt. The matchmaking was... Awful, to say the least. But casual gameplay against vet bots was so fun
That was basically my entire online experience growing up, so you get used to it.
truth be told, i'd love to play some COD vs bots honestly or even Battlefield vs Bots
Very. I tried to get into siege as a new player, and instantly got called a fun word. Starts with R- rhymes with "lard". Multiple syllables. As well as other names. Yeah, instead of helping me, they'd rather insult me. I quit, left a bad review on steam. Went back to division
Original Battlefield...what a game
Eh. R6S is tame vs basically any MOBA
13 year DOTA 2 player
If anyone plays siege willingly, and loves the toxicity of it, I question their sanity
still can't fly a darn XD
Which beginner friendly build would You recommend that involves Elmo and no Exotic armor?
I can tell you one thing: NA Dota players are weak
Cod is one of those ones where people underrate the fun of going against bots. Especially when you crank up the difficulty. It's good practice
ATM Im running 4 piece hunter + PS + Ceska, shield and revive, dont use other weapons
hotshot maybe
regular HE too
Replace the mask with a grupo Sombra mask
every cod i'm like "maybe i can vs bots this game!" no bots game in T_T
Save this for now
There's mod clients for the older cod games that add in bots. MW2/MW3 notably. Bo1-4 had them. Ghosts - Infinite warfare as well
maybe they got better about it and i just don't bother anymore, but yeah i'd ahve to google "COD vs bots?" and find nope or i'd have to some kind of 3rd party software to set one up
The mod clients also keep the game up and running too
never heard of them, but i do like heiakim
Like, no armor build? Bc I'd actually recommend HeadHunterFury
Doesn't use Elmo's but watching enemies die by 1 shot headshot for shotguns is funni
We already posted two striker builds that can use Elmo's
I dont have exotic armor pieces
are they needed?
Thank You for screena with builds
what are some good dz builds?
is there a link for that or is it pinned ?
Bighorn Hazpro + HSD + passive regen, Striker memento, high end crit Vigi builds, Umbra. That's the current meta rn
With bighorn buffs I'd dare argue you could do Hazpro + Regen and don't even bother with HSD
The other one is up there
Posted by Mr Chow
This build stacks crit dmg right? Where does crit chance come from?
This is a good starter build to farm? I just hit 40 so looking for my first build
Yeah, it's fine
i´m also using this Striker Build but i die so fast should i change cores to Blue?
Use Elmo's instead of Lexington and SMG-9 instead of ACS-12 if you want
This is unfortunately a skill issue.
Look at how this player utilizes head-level cover to avoid being shot
This is how high level players avoid taking unnecessary damage with that build.
yeah i think that explains it a lot
Basically just always prioritize tall cover for yourself
that hunter got discombobulated xd
true i will try it for sure
Though to answer your question in earnest, if you're playing under Legendary, you can add some blue cores and it'll likely be fine. It's discouraged in Legendary since damage is always going to be king in that difficulty.
i think i should change my Playstyle and use more Cover and positioning thanks for the Advice
Enjoy
Read the guide. Ceska brandset bonus helps a lot. If you go to Pinned Message there's a GDoc to learn about.
guys i dunno if it s the proper channel, is there a way to farm LENGMO set apart from target farming in summit ?
countdown or your flavor of open world/missions you enjoy living in with lengmo target loot
so no blueprints or vendors, just summit and countdown
blueprints if you were here during the season it dropped i think?
i was not, ty anyway, does countdown drops more than summit? or its the same
a whole lot more since you're running with 7 others and get a whole lot of loots
Are strikers, umbra and centurion holster the only esys to buff rate of fire?
some weapon talents does it aswell, cant think of anything else rn
Gunner spec
Frenzy
Oh, fair. I wonder how much handling is required to laser the ravenous at higher rof...
No way, this thing kicks like a horse with each shot.
Very bouncy. At least at strikers rof.
increase mouse speed?
Mmmm could try Braced
oh! get a trackball mouse and just spin that ball down wards
Might actually try it with one opf the rifle themed sets with handling for 3 pieces. But I am afraid that using it with centurions would be too cumbersome.
Centurions sounds like manual Breaking Point...
Although breaking point, if all bullets land, with a backpack, should give 432% wd to ravenous. In theory. Could be bonkers if emptying it's clip didn't took forever.
I wish BP didn’t rely on headshots for stacks. But it is, what it is
Hey everyone, im new in dv2 and i have a question about meta builds, and what skills i must have. I want build for damage rifle but idk what is the best
can this build can keep up this season? for GR9 or should i go for striker
Check pinned gdoc has a bunch of builds
u can start with a striker set build, evergreen and easy to farm, then u can go and search something more to your taste
So how can i get striker set?
reach level 40 then target farm it in summit or countdown
anyone know a good pesty build ?
Countdown heroic for shire.
anyone have a build for legendary? looking to get idea on what sort of equipment i need to farm
personally i like bluescreen ND for legendary but main ones are strikers with chestpiece and an eclipse cc
guess i need to farm eclipse set then. will check this
Looking for a nice CC skill build. Using eclipse with foam. Stay this route or is there something better?
any thoughts on running nego dilemma on legendary? is it bad?
nope its very good
cuz i already got the set unused, figure i just modified it for legendary run
although not sure if can do solo build. if not then got any advice on what core/attribute i should role?
for leggo? just all red damage is king
sure no need to add some blue role in? cuz i feel like i die if i went in all red on legendary
learning where to shoot from and enemy priority will give you more survivability in legendary than any armour cores will
armour cores mean stuff dies slower = more time for enemies to kill you
Just expect a lot of dying. It's a part of the legendary learning process. You can also watch YouTube videos to memorize strat and spawn locations.
^ this.
Legendary imo is a lot of memorization to get truly good at, as the spawns are mostly consistent (with some being weighted to where the majority of players are looking.) and their compositions will always be the same.
one note is that all red Negotiator's will make you a priority target for enemies because they do know you can do a lot of damage
but learning will indeed help with this
wait all red can bring aggro?
negotiators brings aggro
its like a soft taunt, if you do a lot of damage the ai realises its you and will go for you
and since ND has you spreading damage they will want your ass lol
welp running solo so only my ass in there anyway
I cant wait for them to want it Im ready and open...waiting I mean waiting
god cant believe i just say that
Anyone got a good build for the backfire? I've seen a lot of different options, just wanna know which set works best with it. Preferably with some survivability because the gun does a lot of dps by itself
Gr9 striker frenzy
Wait. But nowhere in Breaking Point it states that you need a headshot? Only to hit a normal shot?
i guess the catalyst mask is fixed
for solo I've been running backfire w/ 4p strikers, memento BP and ceska chest with obli. 4 blue cores 1 red and haz pro on everything. CHD/haz pro on ceska and 2 CHD 1 CHC mods. I've tried different variants and some with all red cores, I just don't like playing solo that way
just run the backfire on a normal build. You really dont need/want haz pro with the backfire. If your using it where you should, you shouldnt feel the need for haz pro at all. If you do thats just telling you that you should be using another SMG for the situation
hi guys , basically my friend told me to do a Pure dps build , for bosses on raids , he let me see his build and he dont use any green set what u guys use for bosses on raid?
Is there a good solo build that has a mix of survivability and damage for heroic and legendary? Too many times on striker feel like I peak for too long or get flanked and die so quickly, how is bluescreen negotiators?
Game just gave me a sign by dropping an eagle's grasp, lmao.
check out the pinned google doc. Bunch of info and guides in there. The build your friend is talking about is the standard DPS build, its been the main dps build for raids since gear 2.0 for a reason. The other common DPS build for raids is striker. Each have their advantages depending on the boss/role your on. Ideally have both, striker is easier to put together, but I personally use the high end build the majority of the time in raids if I were just picking one.
Mmm 🤔 it says hitting a shot to gain stacks. I’ll have to test it out more. But I feel like breaking point needs a buff anyways. But I do know stacks per shot depends on what you use. Rifle is less stack gain but faster rof overall. But snipers gain more stacks per shot but slower rof.
It’s fixed? 👀
Because the Y7S1.1 update haven’t dropped yet. Many issues is still being investigated on trello
I thought it was 1 point per bullet, with cap being a magazine size?
Maybe mag size. If that’s the case, big mag be more worth but a lot of shots require to full stacks…
But small mag is quicker stack ramp up
Yes, that's my problem with it. At large mags it could offen an immense damage boost, but it would:
Take forever to ramp up.
Each miss is a loss of stack because you will consume them upon reload.
I tried white death vs acs rifle. Takes so long to reach max stacks on acs rifle… the acr variant
White death? Dunno, with 5 of the mag size you'll get what. 20% WD when all the shots hit. 36% with a backpack.
Not worth it, since it's not a total.
Ravenous have a potential to reach 400%+ if all shots hit, but it's near impossible to hit them all normally.
Each miss is a loss 👀 I never looked that far into it. Wish it was like strikers
post striker buff striker made it, miss shots don’t count as lost gain anymore
If that’s the case
Each miss is a loss because stacks themselves are consumed upon reload.
I was just messing around with it, nothing to serious
To give an effect.
True. Too clunky...
It’s not bad but it’s also it good 🫡
If it wasn’t headshot based. Maybe be abit more worth. But it was made for snipers originally. Rifle was added later on I think. Or other way around
It isn't headshot based...
Else there won't be rifles with low base damage, right?
No point headshotting with them. At least aside of dread edict.
+3 is 30 HSD bonus
A bit of a waste, but not related to the main bonus at all. Somehow.
I think this set is just poorly planned.
Why would they randomly put HSD on the gearset? If it wasn’t HSD based
Dunno. 30% doesn't exactly make it a headshot beast.
Striker is rof and WH. It’s all about shoot to kill fast and weapon performance in general.
ND is chc/chd based, 4p helps to gain more chd and split dmg for marked targets
All other gearset bonuses align to what the gearset does overall. But BP can use any other stat but HSD
But rn, it’s focused on headshots. Prob because hitting hsd is the focus for stacks gaining.
I noticed using ACS rifle, hitting hsd, I was maybe gain more stacks or feels more powerful overall than hitting body shots all day.
hi what is a good build i can go for
there is a lot of good ones, really depends on what content you want to run
i just completed battle foor brooklyn
so im not too sure what to do now
you run mostly solo or in a group?
solo
there is a handy spreadsheet pinned to the channel to help you know what gear people are talking about. and a few semi outdated build guides in it.
hmm what is good tho for solo
Recommended builds:
Striker's.
HF.
Hotshot.
HHF.
OD.
Nego.
i might catch some flak for this but probably highend gear assault rifle and memento backpack
any of the above
anything striker will work for everything
ah ok
i suppose with more info into your playstyle we could recommend something more specifically
im more of a sniper kinda player
with a marksman rifle or just being long range with other guns?
mine isn't the best but this is what i run for sniper
with determined on the guns and headhunter on the chest?
er its just random gear from when im clearing the story quest
ahh then its worth trying to get those talents in and see how you like it.
use chainkiller vest
this or better to play with armor instead of weapon damage?
how can I get these?
Memento isn't popular in high-end build, right?
Woah someone searched!
Ideally you only need WD. But at first if you want to reroll a core or 2 to armor feel free to do so.
Somehow it's not in a recommended options list.
The point of HE build is that is there is no stacking needed.
How about memento with Striker? Or isn't it that useful?
For future #ask-td2-community we're builders in here. You can get these from doing the faction mission, bounties, cp, open world activity etc.
Or you can craft them if you have the blueprint.
@subtle bluff so not getting memento for striker? 😄
It works too.
Like when does it make sense to pick memento over striker backpack?
Depends on the player.
Memento does give more survival
There should be another Pic here with striker memento?
best is to craft them, if you don't have the blueprint you can unlock it eventually by running control points.
Ya but a lot of stuff works.
any AR or other automated weapons that are better than ST Elmo?
Build calculator from the link above. It doesn't take talents like spotter and flatline into consideration, right?
Bluescreen outperforms kingbreaker on the plot...
Yep, removed spotter and the plot didn't change.
For dmg stuff?
Yes.
Kingbreaker is really bad atm.
Mx builder?
Used it to see if taletns are accounted for.
is Saint Elmo or Strega better for a Striker DPS build?
Ya it doesn't count talent. The mx is a bit outdated on dmg charts I think.
Shame about kingbreaker being meh though. Not sure if I have any relevant weapons that do not require stacking.
Elmo is just reliable and always just works.
Strega is really only with the talent uptime.
ok
Posted one
hi what is the best way to get st elmo engine?
Targeted loot
where can i farm that
countdown
holy countdown is so tough
what difficulty are you matchmaking on?
Well just matchmake in challenging
If I want to farm ceska chest, is it better to farm ceska pieces or chest pieces?
Ceska
and glass cannon as talent y?
Any advice apart from a better chest plate and a coyote mask ? Don’t mind running the crusader shield but doing missions solo on heroic is a pain when I have to use armour kits constant don’t really want to sacrifice red mods
(My crit is 6 over that’s bugged idk I swapped a gear mod out for dmg instead and it didn’t change from 66)
probably modifier
Witch is good for healing I’m running assault link with the loaded up , the best kind of defense and a tier a day as my passives
Also are the prot from elite mods good for any builds I have a lot of 11% ones and 11.5% but they are starting to take up a lot of space 😂
For glass cannon, pair it with Exodus you won’t regret it
Memento
Only started playing about a week or two ago how do I get that ?
You think it would be better than coyote ?
If you want survivability yes
provides better solo survivablity
Its the best solo backpack in the game
Just target farm backpacks in countdown
Oh shii that’s not bad so I could just run Stryker face instead of groupo then appreciate yall homies 🫶🏻🫶🏻
Yeah exactly
btw: if you like federal emergency bunker it has backpack loot (> <)
Yhhhhhh appreciate it I acc don’t mind that map cuz the stoner runs through the groups 😂😂😂appreciate yall im finna try out a catharsis build too till I get the memento bag but appreciate yall frrrrr still learning from this game gotta say its a step up from div 1😂
Hi guys, probably the X time Someone asking this , so far all the vids i"ve seen on Lost Paradise is that you need a Myriad of Players and Builds to get around the Boss Wright, is there any Healer Build that is currently Meta ?
I was using Foundry Bulwark+Catharsis+Liberty and i"m litterally useless and Im more of a support player, so i would have to Grind a completly new Build, but just dont know which one
Other than the first section the 3 dps should be on 4pc striker with chest and backpack and a acs12. For bosses using the Tech FI healer makes it easier for it to do.
No tank is ever needed. Only time we use a tank is one raid in one encounter.
im interested in trying my first incursion on division 2(pc btw) im just not sure if im the right level(284) or what, i currently am running 4 parts of the striker set(holster, kneepads, gloves, backpack) my mask is the coyote mask, along with the reviver hive, crusader shield, st elmo AR, lefty shotgun and gunner specialization, my build is pretty much a pure red
Thank you i look into the Classic Tech FI healer build in the Spreadsheet posted here
swap glass cannon to obliterate but overall you can do Incursion without issues
I should have a guide there too
i wish i could, i had to swap an attribute on the vest
After the 1st section you want Strikers chest. It'll make things easier.
and that ↑
but yeah if you can get a ceska vest with an open talent slot then it'll be great for anything
sounds good, ima grind some more to try and get the same vest i have with the attribute i need already on there, then get another striker vest
get a striker vest and a ceska holster tho, you could also use bloody knuckles instead of striker ones
sounds good, i just got the bloody knuckles a couple hours ago
Is it fine to run sharpshooter instead of technician for the spotter/flatline? Should also enable a companion backpack talent.
i need division 3
if that's the route you want to take go for it
You can. It wouldn't be the recommended way to go.
ahhh
I see. It's just I am unhappy with maintaining vigilance.
goodbye see yaaa
i think you're more unhappy seeing it disabled than caring about it not up all the time. when it is up is not as noticeable
not an airport
funnily enough you can use the firewall shield or the other similar shield (non-firewall) to maintain vigilience
shields in general protect your vigilance, but like if you're trading shots literally all the time that's when vigilance is really not useful
but then if you trade shots all the time, you're probably dead by then
so there's a percentage of your time when you are not taking shots, and that time is significant enough, meaning vigilance is already doing its job well enough
tldr you're probably more annoyed at just seeing that vigi is disabled without considering that it's doing its job well when it is up
pretty much what i'm thinking as well, just threw in the shield bit as an FYI kind of thing
i have a question are snipers and assault rifles a good thing to make a build around
also can you make a good build based around pistols
you can, but i feel you'll be half nerfed between the 2
snipers tends to want headshot damage, assault rifles aren't as good for headshot damage even though you can get the damage on them via 3rd attribute
i use those 3 weapons a lot snipers for long range or mid ars for mid to close range mostly but i do use my berreta quite a bit for close or medium range as well
I guess I am too used to chainkiller playstyle. I should try a shield.
Getting back to automatic weapons is like playign a different game now.
only 1 pistol build comes to mind really and it's usually just chainkiller chest or a chest with headhunter talent on it mostly
i love melting enemies with a pistol it makes me feel like john wick lol
what's chainkiller?
sniper builds in this game are revolve around the headhunter talent, which makes high base damage weapons increably strong. So on a sniper build if you want a close range option you could go for something like a M870 shotgun, or mid range a 1886 rifle.
AR builds are good, but seperate builds
named walker and haris chest gives perfect headhunter talent on it
buy it in clan vendor or dark zone vendors
or just live in dark zone and hope you get it
what the most well rounded out of those three assault rifles, snipers or pistols for a glass cannon type build
thanks for the adv
i just want to shred things very quickly and does the ars or sniper I'm using matter very much
i have the bullet king LMG (it restocks ammo on 100 hits to enemy
lexington, carbine 7 and st elmos are the 3 ar that can shoot like a laser beam
well rounded is AR
i might go for an ar build then
:D sounds fun
lexington can't get, but not sure if you were around when they were handing them out
so that leaves carbine 7 and st elmos
if i made an ar build to shred guys could i use any ar and it would work or does it have to be a decent one?
any you like really
people just recommend Police M4, Famas, st elmos as they're high up on the damage side of things
almost any ar will work...you have to consider all the items that go in any given build: the weapons, gear, gear talents, skills used
For example I can and have used this build successfully
Socom mk16 primary with Optimist talent
M19something (I forget the exact name) smg as secondary
Memento
Belstone vest with Obliterate
rest True Patriot
3 blue, rest weapon dmg as core attribute
using the new Smart Cover skill offensive variant to buff damage
will the Caretaker drop for me in countdown?
i got one from projects
no
ahh,i thought i could gift one to my clanmates
so its gone just like lexington right?
ye
fok
exclusive rewards like this is bad for the game.
like lexington and caretaker? probably
Eh
yea. should be away to get them. make the paint job on weapon excluive only
Everyone has an opinion. None of them are OP and are a need to have.
shrugs techinically the hardcore minmaxers are the only ones suffering honestly
Even then they're not BiS
i dont suffer from fomo. but some people do.
your opinion says differently though because "it's bad for the game"
it is.
i still dont suffer from fomo. im not chasing the caretaker. i could have had by now if i wanted it
People want the Caretaker 😂 😂
Is the huntsman any good??
it's a famas
with perfect frenzy (lmg talent)
my current favourite gun
great for someone whose bored of st elmos imo (like me)
nods got it on my crit high end build atm
3 providence, fox's, contractor's, coyote's, huntsman and dark winter (> <)
im not going to say my build because it involves ninjabike...
if it's working for you why worry about getting shamed? i had a ninjabike build. 1 arcabuz, 2 palisades to see what i can do core wise to reach skill tier 6 before i decided to go for the 3 palisades and 2 arcabuz pieces
I'd like some guidance towards making my first build
Same! Played the game a lot, but never really paid much attention to builds and would like to learn 🙂
ye i know, i use it with ninjabike, 2 piece brazos for the mag size and striker
IMO first build should be Strikers just to have since it can be use at all content levels.
Aite bet say less
It’s very content creator dream gear to make builds. They all can be fun build but will never be top or anything special good.
Here you go same with you @river rock
Thank you @subtle bluff
Hi all, returning player, what's the best way to pick up gear? I've looked at the sheet with a lot of info but it feels like info overload
For me its not about making the most effective or perfect build, it's about understanding how a 'build' needs to be constructed, what gear peices to use and what stats work well with specific peices
https://lite.evernote.com/note/0d1135cf-139c-394e-53f6-02c1b8b4cea9
E.g., I found this - I take it I'd need to target stats and move them over to the build's main items?
That’s fine. A good amount of how to do DPS is in the guide
same, its where the fun of this game is for me. Making a build that isn't meta work for you.
Ok so pretty much I'm running this build but I have pretty much, no health.... if I were to invest into health and a damage. Where should focus on?
also i think people skew too heavily towards the highest tier of content when talking about what builds are good
ninjabike allows you to make good hybrid builds which imo is ideal for playing solo, which is what i do most of the time
The thing is I don't have the knowledge or understanding to know how to make a build as I only have 83 hours in this game, I'm looking to learn or to spitball afew ideas with someone who does understand
Everything you need to know is in the pinned spreadsheet in this channel
the build guide pretty much explains it.
I've been using 3 brazos + catharsis, ninja backpack + 2 brazos, for making just for the LoLs hybrids; it's fun when they happen to work even in the toughest content...for example this is my legendary ninja build
3 striker
brazos vest with Obliterate
pecaro's holster with skill tier
St. Elmo primary, mg5 secondary with Steady Handed talent
decoy
Lately I've been using the new Smart Cover instead of the decoy. Even at skill tier 3 it gives a lot of damage buffs
I mean the current thought meta is BF Hazpro
thats literally my build with huntsman instead of st elmos
This NBB strikers brazos is and was a YouTube meta
All the content creators have dubbed it something
i never saw it on youtube tho
It was like 3 seasons ago
But it pops up here and there. It’s nothing special. Cool more mag size and some skill tiers.
it is
I see it all the time in incursion and I have to carry them because there missing out on 125% more amp dmg.
?
Anyways…. Again in solo play almost anything is viable. Is it good will it a wall once you start group and doing harder stuff 100%
well, being able to have a tier 6 shield while having 4 red cores is very nice
But you’ve done good at mention it’s a fun build that’s all I care.
I just hate when people say these are amazing or better than normal/meta stuff. I really hate using meta but if people use I’ll use it I guess.
yeah, I know that. Any build has its limits in specific content.
Run Memento backpack and Heartbreaker
same principle as striker, but way more survivability
Just need to have tech for laser pointer but yup
The best is pointing you to the Pinned Message and there’s a Build Hub section with a bunch of builds.
Otherwise I’m gonna be typing too much.
The point to them atm is getting striker set to grind CD with since it’ll work great in CD. But ya HB is great for the rest of it all.
It doesn’t mean you did anything I’ve carried enough people that think they’re good with a bad build.
i get carried in everything i do (> <)
mate, why are you intentionally antagonizing people because you don't like their build? lol
Just don’t like people giving out misinformation about using bad builds.
please point out the misinformation
I hate find players that need help because they’ve been pointed in the wrong direction and people are trolls more than helpful people here.
all the guy said was he used it in legendary
"this build does more damage than strikers most of the time"
-said someone one time
Do you like to be heavy and not useful in a group sitting and just trolling the team without realizing it?
That’s what his build is. He doesn’t output any meaningful damage and isn’t tank
i'd say they do (> <)
Just doing it sure but that doesn’t mean he did anything but be there.
Ads in 4man leggo have 25mill HP with his build isn’t doing much DPS at all. I can math out the DPS if I wanted to
no its not lol
Is the future initiative backpack and chest in the loot pool now?
Ive been away a while
Yes, same with foundry
Ok thanks
Sorry YouTube/content/noobs/lazy meta.
"""meta"""
what if they used meta to get a meta build? 🤔
it needs more of those things "
I hate you….. Respectfully

sorry i couldn't resist, i still call it facebook i don't care what people want to call it meta
Ya I’m sitting at meta site working funny enough
pretty sure it is still called facebook, Meta is just the new name for the company
So... tell me this... if I make a build that focuses on Critical Hit Damage and Chance.... but I make my backpack and Vest towards armor... would I have a good build?
What backpack or chest provides ammo?
armor* sorry
Oh armor just for a tiny bit of survivability? Sure but you won't have as much damage as another perolson who skips the armor
do you mean having blue attributes (not core attribute) on chest and backpack? because that would heavily reduce your damage
The core of any DPS build is crits so getting your CHC (Crit hit Chance) to around 54% then dump the rest into CHD (Crit hit Dmg) is the focus.
Core wise you can throw in blue or 2 if you’re not feeling comfortable with all red.
Man I wish there could be a way to share the my build but literally im doing this one...
Phone discord.
Take a shot and post
Change the chest to Ceska and the reason why is for more CHC.
Streamline doesn’t work when skill are deployed.
🤣 it's funny how you go from zero to salty in just a few seconds
All I said was I used it in a legendary and it worked. You are extrapolating things from it that I never actually said.
The thread of conversation was fun hybrids.
No where did anyone make any claims about a given build experiment being meta, equivalent to meta, or better than any meta.
So far I can hit hard but the thing is that if Im 1 vs 1 on PVE in challenge mode. I can be taken down easily...
Else wise you’re fine.
Streamline is very strong. Just make sure your skills aren’t being used or on CD.
it must be one of the meta builds. 100% bonus to antagonizing others, get a buff to words per minute for chat messages 😛
speaking of the Streamline weapon talent, the description text doesn't mention deployed skills...so is it a bug (wrong description) or is the talent supposed to work when skills are deployed but not on cooldown?
PTS it worked with skills even shield deployed
live they included those skills in the Cooldown section (secret nerf)
The point is this is the build advice channel. You can run whatever you want, but expect pushback from others if you start giving out bad advice
Patch Notes look
nods if someone asks for a legendary build and you're like "i did this build for fun lol and it worked" people won't read that part of the comment and will try your build for it
I struggle to see how mentioning a build that works is bad advice🤣
in the specific thread of the conversation advice was not being asked for nor was it given out...we were just trading build experiments, so maybe at worst it belongs in different channel. No point going in full thought police mode
oh, i didn't bother looking in game but it reflects this as well?
nah, in game tooltip doesn't say
so in game still says "skills on cooldown"?
ye
Are you only able to change one part of an item? For example main talent/attribute/etc
ye
To me the line is saying something that isn’t good is useable in leggo play and depending some group play.
like if i was going to run legendary and i'm leader and i see someone coming in with that build i'd probably kick them regardless
if not leader i'd probably "good luck o7" and leave group and requeue after awhile hoping i don't get put in the same group i just left
But it's your opinion that it's bad. That doesn't make it true.
It's mathematical
you can disagree, but idk why you were acting like it was misinformation
the root problem is assuming a given statement applies to "meta"; unless the statement explicitly says something akin to this is better than [fill in the blank] then I wouldn't make such an interpretation
new bros are coming in, they'll see that build and think someone said it works so shouldn't be a problem then go in and keep getting floored because they don't have the knowledge or skills to play such a build
Again... Solo play I don't really care what's really shared to a degree.
I don't see how or why someone would make such a leap in logic....unless someone explicitly says this is better or equivalen to [fill in the blank] why would you think otherwise
why do newbies keep making youtuber builds?
wha'ts a youtuber build?
any random build on youtube
You mean literally any build in the game?
people would pick any build someone posts and then make it, no one has to say the build outperforms this or that for them to do that
it's always in the title right?
"This build shreds legendary!" poeple click and watch and see build and go collect it
please explain what the problem with that is? It is identical to if someone got build advice from here.
we have standards here
There all click bait.
i want to make a ar build based around the hunters ar :D
Sorry 96% of them are click bait
Strikers and HB both work.
haven't got that new item yet but I imagine it would work well with True Patriot gearset
whats true patriot?
This is a troll..
strikers and HB?
True patriot is bad.
lol
Either gearset build work.
also I'm still new to build crafting never got into it on ps4
i used to use true patriot simply because i loved the explosions :D
personally i'm thinking i need to try ninja, 3 patriot 2 arcabuz with that gun just to see if the rpm goes insane on it
I used it with true patriot, ninjabike, and 2 piece brazos for the most ammo. It's decent, the issue is that extra 6% dmg/rof isnt really worth it compared to using striker, which ultimatly gives you more of both of those stats
ah, good to know, i was jsut thinking RPM wise towards the end would it be like "why am i reloading, oh i'm empty" XD
ok I'l rephrase for the thought police out there
disclaimer: following is NOT an assertion or claim about being better than or equivalent to what is widely considered as "meta". Consider this as only a fun experiment```
Using True Patriot with the huntsman (I think that's the name....could be wrong....it's the new named famas that's rewarded for taking down all the hunters in the Brooklyn dlc) and say Chatharsis or Memento would be a fun build
Got it. If you go to the Pinned Messages on the top you'll find a Gdoc with a bunch of good info and a build hub.
Hey I've noticed im dying super fast, i don't actually have a build rn, i just got into the invasion thing, and im dying in like 3 or 4 hits. My current "build" is just skill cores, the riot shield, and that artificer hive
Is there something i should be doing?
oki thx
i was thinkin the shield breaker I'm planning on getting that gun sometime gonna finish the base story first
lol yeah that +80% mag size bonus....though using Umbra with brazos and ninja likely (unproven, just a guess) outputs greater sustained and burst dps
Oh i never die behind the shield, its only when i get hit
did the umbra yeah it screams
Hunters ar?
hey guys, i wanted to finally make a true patriot build, and with an improvised holster, i have a 45% protection from elites, so how many red cores should i go, also is Catharsis or Memento better to run with TP?
rn im running a 2/5/1 split with memento
Id day Memento if solo. Also the issue with TP is that its bugged. the explosion does damage based off your armor instead of the enemy.
ok ty
shield breaker is the one you get if you kill the hunters you need the ivory key the gun is a f2000 i think
how long has that been a thing?
TP can work as a support/Tank setup for a group. Its not the best but it exists and is kinda funny.
awhile irrc
cause my idea was "oh TP gives extra mag size, Pakhan scales mag size, kappa chungus"
I consider the huntsman functionally more like an smg rather than an ar due to the high burst damage....so what I'm thinking is using the new Pahkan as primary, hunstman as secondary, and then some ridiculous combination of gear that provides magazine size buff
true that is funny. Though the issue with that is phakan wants you to get the final hit with it.
it's always funny and satisfying to see the TP explosion take out other enemies...seen a few times where a chunga was frozen in place and the TP explosion took out a few others
yeah, also important to mention i almost never play on a team, only exception being countdown
i have no friends who play div 2
rip eagle bearer and ravenous builds, cant do raids and too bad for DZ (genuine skill issue)
You are not missing out...
tbf TP has always been buggy as hell, they still haven't fixed the bug where it will only show 1 or 2 colors then blow up, or show 3 and not blow up. and thats been a thing since i stated playing in like 2021 or something
yeah but ravenous shoots funny
no no, they look great on the wall where they belong (> <)
Is ravenous the one to do with swapping shoulders?
Ravenous is okay....I hate how my aim on the screen gets messed up when I switch shooting sides....it kinda works well when used with that Breaking Point or Break Point gearset, whatever it's called...but it's always a pain to use, so I rarely use it even though it's damage output is pretty good
yes
Umbra or striker for backfire haz pro build? What are upsides and downsides of both?
Idk it’s fun for some and not for others. Murp
umbra you need cover to stick to for 1 set of stacks
True seeing TP fireworks is so fun. Its just a shame that it works off the agents armor total instead of the target killed. Kinda ruins the magic. using a chunga to nuke adds would be so fun to see.
umbra for burst dps, striker for constant high dps
i was hoping Oh Carol would've been a fun thing to run around with, but no matter what i do it's not that great
lamo
I assume they are pretty similar otherwise, biggest difference I assume is striker probably has more dps but umbra will have a little more survivability?
well with Oh Carol you can't put a good talent on it like Determined, so of course compared to typical sniper builds it's gonna suck
if, and that's a big IF, they don't put named items that don't have a perfect talent in the tinkerer mask the oh carol + determined might be a funny thing to run
Big big if. Since it does say named.
pros - White death doesnt become uber meta
cons - yes
Abridged mask don’t work with perfect talents but works with perfect stats on the weapon
source? 
PTS testing
When I have heal on incursions since I have a free main slot I throw the snowball thing and after boss his dead I go snowball ads heads.
ok but that was pts
PTS is always very close to final product 
yes, streamline worked with shield and deployed skills in PTS live they altered it to deployed and skills on cool down. in game tooltip doesn't reflect this just skills on cool down
so you guys said that ravenous is complete wall fodder, but 1: why, and 2: is there any niche for it
That was a bug with the talent
Ravenous don’t get used much. But it is a good overall weapon
boss nuking.
thats uh yeah.
i see, cause i like the wonky firing, same with merciless, except that one is good
damn, everything fun getting powercreeped
Its not great but it still can be used sometimes.
i missed the "use it on warhounds" bit learned of it and go try and it was nerfed 😭
It only well on armor plated enemies.
does the aoe dmage all the plates?
Now they are stripped now basic bi- (not gonna say it) compared to its Y1 version
Alright, build nerds. I need a solid Nego setup. I lost all my pieces to decon
Decon got you
I've told you mine.
4pc nego, Ceska chest obl and exo gloves, gunner and bluescreen. His ^
4 PC with backpack
Yeah imma be honest my brain is mush farming for days and days with shepherd levels, as well as farming Army term
You can only stack off of armor plated.
Can I go nuts and go Glass cannon?
Cuz I got a glass ceska collecting dust
Yes.
dont ask me lol. im only the messager.
Bet. Coming right up... Eventually
I have another maybe a dumb idea but I need to run it first.
Diamondback is fun on nego
Can't be no dumber than my fully armor strikers + firewall shield + tardigrade + Elmo's
I have to make a guide for it it's works too well.
Works better as a component
Literally 1886 determined is better
1886 determined isn't drippy
I will die on this hill
Should of seen some of these silly support builds that worked on zoo.
Nor is being locked to random targeting and distance
all yellow strikers. 
You don't even need to, it's just shoot anyone stupid enough to get close to you
I'll do it don't tempt me.
holy lord let this man have salvation...WHAT ARE YOU ON?
I got a yellow striker healer build with iron lung. Sit in cover, heal your boys, even comes with OC. Iron Lung for crowd control
I run this shit like the founding fathers intended
1886 determined is nowhere near as drippy as the silly looking snake rifle
smoothbore too
Hunter's fury at that point
Ok fr I died multiple times to a guy in dz running it. His oxi hurt... alot.
hit the dog 2 corners down instead of the home intruder
you may have spawned an idea
Everyone... RUN
Oh oh we've dubbed my wright skill repair, striker, 1shot build.
HHF with Diamondback : 🤭
okay so i never got an answer, whats a good core split for solo TP?
None. Take strikers
All red
Don't take memento... TP backpack buffs the talent... Still. Take strikers. Do your team a solid and do actual dps
True Pat is alright if you run TP pack with Pesti and all red
I used it in the Kelso master mission and somehow did the best out of the entire team
In damage? Or dying?
Damage
why striker for healing? Are you using the stacks in someway?
brother the question has solo in it💀
All red TP with backpack and Pesti will get you the best result
Doesn't matter tbh. TP can only dream of being viable rn
or a measured Stoner. You need a high damage LMG
they want to use phakan
now hypothetically, what if i use pakhan (when i get it), cause like...312 mag size
I'm gonna use HHF with Diamondback lmao
I wanted to see how strikers would work in terms of doing damage + healing. Screw the crits, just use Iron Lung to light things on fire. It works in a weird way
I haven't tried Pakhan but go for it
i mean odds are ill get it in like a week, season level 13 rn
could you hypothetically run it with dodge city?
I only used Pesti because the stacks on top of the debuff just feels right. You can use Iron Lung too
also whats the exotic armour piece
Doesn't DCH only work on pistols
for TP? Coyote
bet i got an almost perf coyote
If you don't want any skill haste.. sure? Mine runs BTSU gloves
might not be in the books for me, got an improvised holster for another protection from elites mod
Isn't the point of doing crits to aim for near 55% CHC? If you ain't crittin' you ain't hittin'
eh... Not useful
TP. LMG. 55% might not be feasible
aight
honestly, the whole "you must hit 50% CHC" thing is BS
40% upwards is fine. Anything below that on DPS needs to definitely be changed
It's not. MATHEMATICALLY the point of crit is to constantly crit. It's where your damage actually comes from. Don't believe me, keep your crits on a striker build at 40-49%. Then swap it to 55+. Watch the difference happen in front of your eyes.
yeah im at 40 without changing pack, gloves, kneepads to any crit
This applies to all builds.
start optimising!
skill builds, tank builds, headshot builds, mortar builds, etc?
Those aren't crit builds 🤦♀️ those are different categories. I'm talking all CRIT builds
I don't give a monkeys about maths that's when a game gets boring.
AGREED
it's a video game. You have to keep that clearly in mind lmao
@marble root you could run this setup for the funny with + 80% mag size
let me run my dead edict in peace 😭
holy mag size
this with a frenzy Stoner is funny as hell lmao
If you like the game taking forever, when it's already punishing enough with the grind, have fun I guess 🤷♀️ but don't be surprised when people tell you that you're giving niche build advice on inefficient builds
people who get stuffy about builds can kick rocks
There's a big reason the community swears by these things.
ok is there a more updated build maker? the one I use doesnt even have last seasons stuff.
the mx one? find the option to clear your database
It's tested and true math. Also helps new players too. Giving bad build advice to newbies deters them away. Wouldn't it be better to recommend decent builds then actually allow them to experiment? Instead of giving out inefficient experimental builds? Part of it is your responsibility on this as a community member
Then why doesn't everyone run the exact same build with no variety because it's mathetically the best and there's no need for anything else?
because it's how games die. End of
🤦♀️😂 I give up with you. You're like a brick wall lmao. Don't be surprised when you get kicked from CD
I'm consistently the highest DPS and kills player in CD lmao
Cool, gold star for you ⭐
the only place when you should run the mathetically best build is in things like Incursion or Iron Horse
Appreciate the Nego setup 🔥
324+1 magazine size
holy discount bullet king
???
just run striker
I do, smartass
it's mathetically better 🙂
can lmgs get mag size as an attribute?
@subtle bluff get a load of this guy recommending 40 CHC 😂 scroll up
yes but it amounts to like 8 extra bullets
https://mxswat.github.io/mx-division-builds/#/MzC0CZQNlBGUAMjlNS9qBcacb7rATgmjhIBZz9qsCb7aGmdtm2FNxyAOZQ42AFYBUeLChJxkAqzpzEs9gqiL5HNSiA
this tool? find the option to clear it's database on your computer
holy gunner passive required
ah found it. its from issues
nah
That's because this is a mostly pvp item
you NEED gunner passive ammo gen
Pack another one of those big mags
exactly
i used it in my high end Bighorn build to abuse the ROF buff lol
Just go umbra at that rate
isn't it a bit too fiddly for PvP?
oh if you switch off the gun you just straight up delete like 300 rounds
No, it's commonly used in pvp
damage decrease
double lexington aka DIVISION 1 META BABY LESSGOOOOO
I'm still scared of Div 1 DZ
div 1 DZ changed me man
I used Bullpup Alphabridge before they changed it
actually got me looking around like the hunters from the survival gamemode were hunting
I never really bothered with Survival
Div 1 DZ rn: 💀
Div 1 DZ got me on that 1 mile long stare (i was 13 when it all began)
It deletes rounds constantly. That's what makes this more of a pvp item. Only for the damage and rof buffs. Commonly used on umbra builds
Classy striker: Boo!
i watched a farily recent div 2 DZ hacker video. guy spawns in instant manhunt status, youtubers runs up behind them and shoots them down
then the rest is the hacker killing the youtuber "ez hakutua" over and over again
Me with my Hunter's Faith Historian build
im gonna be deadass, whats the most non skill legendary cheese build?
Is HB viable for solo play? Cause im looking for a tanky/dps hybrid build
whats HHF, and whats thorn
Headhunters Fury
Thorn is a named shotgun, highest single target damage in game
oh right
How many blue and red cores should i run with this spec?
all red
i have one in inventory
Memento gives you a free armour core, but you can run another armour core if you feel a little squishy
doesn't? most HHF run the 870 tac for the extra mods?
accuracy and mods. Thorn does do more damage
All right or should i go for strikers with some blue cores?
Striker will do more damage, HB gives more armour
Personal preference
by far my fave way to run strikers is the a steelworks chestplate for the extra armor on kill. having 25% armor on kill (with gunner) is so comfy
I would but the gun just doesnt hit for what it needs to.
or mop iwth preservation for extra armor on kill (> <)
try a DB with optimist
5 stacks in one shot is funny
bro id use DB but the god awful reload bug
can't wait for Tinkerer mask so I can combine Brazen and optimist
omg. HHF with tinkerer so you get damage bonus from brazen, optimist, and headhunter
Optimist massively outdamages Pummel on DB
even outdamages Brazen, crazy as it sounds
Then what will you do about your chest or backpack talent?
Chain killer chest, HF pack
not the best but you swap backpack for Tinkerer mask
Goodbye backpack damage talents
You'll have to compare Vigilance buff to your second gun talent
The math still isn't adding up, even if it's theoretical currently
Amp damage and weapon % DMG are 2 different things and they don't exactly stack together the same
I mean, losing Vigi when your theoretical max damage output is over 1000% damage isn't much of a loss
ohyeah on DB but other shotguns are gonna be wacky
vigi is 1.25x that damage
But it could mean the difference in 1 shotting a named enemy, or more up front damage
won't be using other shotguns, I'm doing this purely to make the DB broken
it doesn't matter how much you stacked hh, it is 1.25x
PLEASE INTERVENE. This channel needs you
is there any way to not have the agent take 5 business days to fire after reloading the DB
We've all been saying this math ain't adding up
there's only 1 weapon talent that beats vigi for hh and that's brazen, but it requires shotguns
Which is what I'm talking about
2 ways
DB! Double Barrel Shotgun!
They're trading a damage talent on a backpack for tinkerer mask on HHF. Using optimist and brazen
i'm ngl though, it does make sense. you're trading vigi for a weapon talent
I mean HHF rolls weapon handling and HSD on rolls so there's that. Other than the HF disorient on kill to cover your reload not really
the realistic difference here is you lose some weapon handling and hsd because tinkerer doesn't come with those
1.Exotic knees, think Ninja BIke where you do cover to cover or vault to reload your weapon. 2. precious smartcover you weapon swap to instantly fill you're ammo
yeah you basically said what i'm about to say
i need to think about it more to fully complete the comparison but at a glance your idea makes sense
I'm NGL this build only works if you use DB lol
It makes sense but you trade so much up front damage for a second talent
otherwise you'd definitely lose at least some DPS
not with DB. The unique way it works with optimist is what makes the difference
it does trade first shot damage, and for some like me i run MMR on second slot, and this means i'm basically locked to shotgun only. in some encounters it makes sense
so for me that's 2 tradeoffs
I know how optimist works on the double barrel. Im simply saying trading Vigi for a second talent doesn't seem worth it in an entire sense
It's not really a good build in any sense if we're being honest
💀
I'm just trying to experiment with Tinkerer to spin a good build into a wacky one
nah i'm being frank here and say it genuinely makes sense
so there a resource to look at builds? my buds and I did the striker in all reds and got one shot in legendary mission today.
i would probably do brazen and pummel
That's a better setup
you ain't no frank
these are actually optimal for it, the problem isn't the build
you can run Regulus in your pistol slot if you want to fall back to basic HHF too
yeah i would definitely do that but it loses out on whatever tinkerer would've brought to my build
Doesn't apply to exotics ^
using it would be a loss in this kinda hypothetical build
Use Orbit to add some crit spice to the super shotgun lmao
Wasn't there a shotgun in Div 1 that shot both barrels at once?
Backup boomstick: 😢
oh my god imagine that with optimist
Can't be named items
anyone tried using the new Catalyst mask with Ouroboros? On paper, never ending bonus armor....
but anyways i would probably do double m870
Currently bugged
Where's your status effects coming from?
or m870 + spas-12
Me with a KSG 😂
DB + ACS-12 for me
but what if they alter it to both weapons shares their talent with one another so dual shotguns you just swap to other and empty your clips?
The reload bug im talking about*
the fact that there is a delay between when the rounds are loaded vs when you can fire. Like im spamming fire.
If it doesn't die in two shots, pull out the auto shotgun and blast away
yeah i've run into this a lot. the only real way to solve this is to reload cancel. it does take some practice but it makes it very consistent
reload cancel by swapping weapon then back
ah
you can run into this with any single firing weapon
I had a cursed idea. HHF with Diamondback
this is not related to tinkerer right?
no
yeah i've thought about running diamondback with it too
Standard HHF but with Diamondback for that 20% amp shot
my choice would be to use the foam chem launcher, but the main idea is to intentionally rush those enemies that do status effects, ie the chungas
Don't need determined if you only hit headshots! 🤓
I'd say use Iron Lung instead
yeah i don't use determined anyways, it would be a nice breath of fresh air for me
i've just been liking mmrs more than 1886 personally
@violet juniper do you just run dttooc on db?
the cowboy novelty wears off after I miss a shot
we got one tapped by mobs, while hiding. you sure?
usually.
yes. it's all about positioning and killing before you're overwhelmed
sheeesh skills matter?
Yeah that's how legendary works. You have under a million armour, you need to press them before they get to you
ok i clearly need to see capitol building then because it's wild
with experience you can learn spawns though
and how you deal with drone/nade spam.
yeah we have no clue how to dael with it
position yourself correctly and they don't use them
Listen to this guy, he's an average player
The drones seem very annoying in Div2. The first game seemed to be mostly just the shotgun enemeis that were problematic on high difficulty
think about when you use drone/turret and how you have to see an enemy's hitbox in order to target them with your skills. it's the same principle but from the enemy perspective instead
My controller ass could never
Div 1 LMB shotgunners were terrifying
do you guys just have full red strikers, no armor?
if you position yourself correctly, they don't get to use these skills on you
it ain't that hard tbh
yes, but imo if you're new you can put on some more armor
Yeah I just ran this Iron Lung build in capital legendary in a group, just for the LoLs
Catalyst
Liguid Engineer
Ongoing Directive
3 blue, 3 red
Iron Lung primary
Lud secondary
I was able to rush enemies most of the time, keeping up the bonus armor frequently. Don't think it would work solo though. Is still fun to use.
it's optimal, yes. I personally run Hunters Fury with Memento, but I like to be different and quirky
i would recommend watching toasteyxgod's legendary guides, he goes over builds and the strats but most importantly he goes over the actual encounters in real time so you can see his thought process and how some unexpected things happen
perf, that a youtuber/
he's a speedrunner
the new gearset Measure Armaments or whatever the name is, works great against those drones
unexpected being a shotgunner sneaking into your backline
Final Measure!
he approaches it from a new player perspective so it's not because he's a speedrunner that his guides won't be friendly to newcomers
but yeah legendary is meant to be very hard, dying is normal
Measured Assembly?
I've heard that set bugs out more often than it works, to be honest. Primary use just seems to be a slightly more fiddly hive overcharge build
oh that's the div 2 name.
Too many measures and protocols! 😛
my bad, they basically copy pasted the gear set from the first game into div 2 and gave it a different name lol
i'd believe it. think i've had times grenades landed near me while i'm in my smartcover radius and grenade blows up lol
cool, thanks for the help!
It works in Rainbow 6 because they can actually optimise correctly lmao
I wish the ADS was a skill in division, it'd be really cool
pop it down and it takes out grenades, drones, and electronics
to get the most out of it requires teamwork...the other players have to intentionally stay in the hive/smart cover area of effect; when the group is coordinated it's great...I think it's good, am going to do lots of build experiments with it.
I've been in group of randoms where there was zero coordination in the legendary mission (was dua I think) and the one guy running the set just kept following the group, timing when to drop/pick up his skills. I imagine it was annoying for him but we got the buffs sustained for long stretches of time
nods a lot of my runs i'd put a hive or smartcover in play people stand with shieild out shooting facepalm
it fulfills a role that doesn't have much importance I think. It's a cool ass idea, but a lot of what it does can be avoided by just being aware of your surroundings and not spraying bullets like a chimp
Maybe it's a little better for PVP?
it can probably counter mortar
just to be that extra annoying? 🤔
wait, does it counter mortar? Would be great for conflict if it did
One of the sets does. I think MA chest talent does
shrugs something that'd probably need testing
Or backpack
get one of the PvP guys on that lol
You can reset global oc cooldown w measured 🤫
you've just scarred my eyes whaet
😉
MA backpack is 1 sec for skills/grenades thing
chest is the overcharge cooldown
WHAT THE HELL IS THAT BANNER?
LOL
I'd say the backpack would be better
Idc what y’all say about my guns, it’s a 50 chc (either I crit or I don’t (it’s 21.7%))
yeah I've seen that many times...it's like dude how do you not see the deployed hive and smart cover??
shoot bulet
Measured assembly counters all skills, yes. It's cavalier's new contender. It's a niche build set tho and a FI healer or just cavalier would be better for team buffs. Measured relies on hive and smart cover and acts as a trophy system. Hardly anyone stays in cover on PC, let alone stays near a hive long enough
"While at Skill Tier 6, having at least one ally Agent in the range of your Hive or Smart Covers for 4s will grant Overcharge." ..... "Mortars and enemy skills that enter the range of your Hive/SC will be destroyed." Less with more people close to you
it's great if you run bunker type comps I'd say
Chest and backpack near necessary on that set as well. You're basically a healer bot
Yes my hive has a very big area and players still will sit just outside it
I like healing but I struggle to deal any damage on enemies in challenging+
I wish measured procc’ed on myself entering the space, wanna do artificer hive and sniper turret build
I bet it's the same players in countdown that wastes 10 min because for some reason they can't tell that it's their session, only they can start it
But there’s no set that synergises with it
I'd still argue future healer. Gives more damage buffs for the whole team. Killing fast = surviving. Also, @mental pivot , it's not meant for damage. It's basically meant to act as a trophy system. You'd be doing less as that than as a FI healer with setup bp + BTSU
that'd be me because i don't realize i'm the leader
"start newbie" in chat usually works
I have the FI build right now exccept for BTSU. I think it's because I build the wrong stats. :x
Spent half my day training newbies how to play CD. Was still like pulling teeth. Went to summit for my sanity back and efficiency
yeah FI is the strikers of support builds lol
Everything repair skills
How do people struggle with this? Just matchmake instead of making a lobby
I have only played CD once. It seemed fun but very hectic?
Yeahhhh but it’s also the best exotic farm
have you tried:
thought police disclaimer: NOT a claim about or pertaining to anything remotely close to the topic of "meta"
Ninja backpack
3 Refactor
2 brazos including Pecaro's
striker drone and turret
Capacitor as primary
The one I see says it should be turret damage/haste. Very confusing.
You can thank endgame content being open to all players now. Instead of being a paywall thing
Oh right, they did do that
For future initiative? It's for healing
Please get this off my screen 🤢 refactor is a spit on the face to skill builds
Skill Repair/Haste for FI iirc
sounds amazing, Glass Cannon?
NBB! get the pitchforks
Ninjabike asspack has no place in PvE
NBB striker 😃
Have fun only doing .065% damage per stack without the backpack
It's known the striker backpack is the best DPS backpack in the game
worked well enough to help me decide to go the 3 palisades, 2 arcabuz route with a build
what if in group of 4 you have
- Future Initiative
- Refactor
- Measured Assembly
- Ongoing Directive
don't think you can get more synergized than that
I'll run a shotgun to make up for the DPS loss
it'll be fine!
Good luck to you. I'll see you at the next checkpoint while I run the backpack as you're still building stacks with an ACS 12
ACS12? That's silly I'll use Cuelebre for the extra reload speed
God help us all
Which location has the glove target loot at the moment? I do not find it.
“It’ll be fine”-ers when it won’t be fine
It'll be fine guys when they can't clear hard on their own
At least they're having fun, I don't judge
My first "build" was yellow true patriot lol
That sounds about right
I was SHD 30
I've used glass canon, kinetic momentum, overwatch, obliterate...they all work, though of the bunch glass canon is the most hilarious....watching a chunga or warhound die near instantly from glass canon + capacitor + drone + turret at the same time.
This is what I use now. Just with Chatterbox instead of Lady Death
I wish Lady Death was good, but just can't use it. I run Chatterbox or Oreo depending on what situation I'm in
Can this be used with backfire or nah?
absolutely
Does it need any changes? Haz pro, etc?
I wouldn't recommend that route but you can yes
Memento bonus armour takes care of the bleed
SMG-9 would be better
They gotta buff pakhan, give it 1% weapon damage per bullet in mag
Frenzy talent 💁♀️ optimist 💁♀️
that would be ridiculous
181% weapon damage buff is a great idea, yes 🫠
Yeah let's revert nerf to streamline while we are at it 🤦♀️
Exactly, y’all should take notes
maybe 1% amp damage per 5 extra bullets in mag
This is where the fun begins
It comes with 15% WD mod.. what more you all want?
181% weapon damage apparently
More bullets
Glass cannon
I wish to cosplay heavy tf2 with tomislav
the hectic part is kind of the point, that and loot farming. To me it's still fun and good for build experiments. A lot of enemies surrounding you at all times.
You either kill fast or die fast, so the feedback loop is short, which makes the theory crafting fast.
The one downside are the noobs....for the love all things holy why people still waste time doing the VIP objective I'll never understand
the mag size build is gonna go crazy when Pakhan gives you 300% weapon damage
That or
This with Striker and you got the new meta
I'm gonna have to calculate that now
Pahkan doesn't give weapon damage, only magazine size buff.....the one lmg I want back from Div1 is the Hungry Hog...I think it's an m60 variant, anywya the talent is great, +10% damage bonus on each kill until you reload
1% rpm per bullet
so Frenzy on crack
Make gunner sig useless but actually
181% ROF increase is ridiculous
As it should
No, 80% mag size build
Ala 324%
Idk leaving it here for you all
We know what it does, we're spitballing
Copy
OMG
