why is this even a discussion
A real RPK firing at that speed would explode dude
All I’m saying is what’s meta? Meta mi swevos en tu boca (I wrote it in Spanish so I can’t be banned kappa chungus)
Your barrel would literally melt or something
Meta monkeys can cry and watch me with my 480 round frenzy stoner
Imagine like a 360 round blueprint
All I want to do, is bring descent builds into main game
it would be like that one mag attachment from Ghost Recon that's a literal semi circle mag
I like Frenzy Stoner now. But only for bosses.
I use Measured Stoner for my normal striker build
the second half of the mag is ridiculously high damage
My descent builds would one shot raid bosses
lol
Stand back guys, I got this.
Oh no
*shoots Gray with a sniper turret*
Regicide + Liberty shotgun build lmao
I had one shotgun build where I one shotted the nemesis
yeah descent builds in the real game would be nuts
me and my 12 unhinged
some guy running around with intimidate and headhunter on
I would think they just stack separately
headhunter is probably one of the talents i don't think even devs understood
otherwise that's like 30% amp 800% total WD
most amps genuinely don't work with it, but some do like brazen
I was trying to figure out headhunter the other week; nope no idea what's going on there. number go big is all that matters in the end
which, i'm like... okay why did it take you this long to design an amp that does work with it
i can nerd out about it if you want, but have you read the HH guide I wrote?
I would like to see an event where you can use Descent builds in normal play
yeah i'd just like running around with leadership + ad rush + intimidate
just release some poor dude with one cube of armour into a raid and watch him solo it
Don't think I've seen that one; I read a pretty comprehensive YT comment that explained it fairly well but I couldn't translate that onto a spreadsheet
But if you have a good explanation, I'm all ears
I like using Clutch tbh
Clutch + Adrenaline +protected reload
clutch+BK is fire in descent
without 3/3 Brazos, i have 362 on my stoner (its a Dare so its bad)
i also cant craft a stoner cause i wasnt here for season 8
tldr
define shot damage = your damage normally without HH
your damage with HH stacks = shot damage + HH bonus (in other words HH gives you a second number that adds to your main shot damage)
however shot damage and HH bonus do have some common factors. among other things, these are weapon damage, total weapon damage, dta, dth, etc. (dttooc and most amps are notably absent and only apply to shot damage)
Thank you. I think that's where I got lost - figuring out which ones are calculated into the shot damage
i just linked it too in the build spreadsheet under the technical guides if you want to find it later too
Great thanks!
Pakhan with 3 striker and 2 brazos + ninja is the way to go; you can get up to 270 rounds
#td2-build-advice message 3BA + 1Zwa + cent holster buff + max mag % roll
Just started the game, should I worry about what build to run before reaching lvl 40
hell no
So just run through the campaign
yeah
Ok cool thanks
np
Also when should I buy the season pass? I have the WoK and the other deck already
uneccessary i think
thoughts on this drop? usable?
should be able to get just about if not everything in the game
👍ok, thanks again
np
Two words: the drill
i need a decent AR 😦
Carbine 7 st Elmo’s or Lexington
dont have Lexington but ill try carbine 7
police m4, famas, f2000 are good too
Elmo, police M4, famas, caretaker, strega etc etc
alrightie ill make a note of these thanks
Also if you click in the build advice on this channel up top theirs a gdoc in the pin section of that tab click on hub (build advice). Everything you desire shall be shown.
thanks for the reminder. keep forgetting pins exists
okay so how in the world do people do legendary missions, cause like i go into and i get the entirety of the US militarys stockpile of grenades thrown at me
is it just skill build?
You got it brother
Practice
Stay behind cover and throw your skills
If were that easy
what if they run past the turrets
They will
Like I'm not a great player but I try every now and again and I've made it up to drug lab in DUA
It's just practice and knowing spawns
You’ll get a better build and just scale up slowly haven’t done them myself but I run heroics back to back
you could use skill builds; there are many ways, is a matter of preference.
Either you out directly out damage the enemies or do other things to mitigate incoming damage and buff yours.
For example, you could run this build
Coyote mask
Fenris with Focus talent
rest striker
all red
your ar of choice using an 8x scope
scropio as secondary (is a good get out of jail free card)
You can look up "meta" builds and pick from those. The above is just an example of one way to out damage enemies
my drome laster literally 2 seconds
so in simple terms
find rat spot, abuse rat spot
Fenris is not BiS for Striker. Ceska is better due to CHC more value stats after you have so much WD
They’ll come find you.
I like to say if you’re able to solo clear without Rez hive and mostly red core a heroic stronghold then you’re to solo a leggo.
legendary is about good positioning basically, you find a good spot that you won't get easily flanked from
depends on how much damage you do, you can basically find closer and closer spots to the enemy
how good is pestilence for legendary
it's decent
i mean usually i would say this, but if using focus you really just want to use pristine example
Yup
pestilence for legendary depends on the rest of the gear...its' base single shot damage is not great so you're relying on the ticks to do most of the work for you
yeah it's never my first recommendation imo, but it does work
Pesti itself is good DPS weapon
i would say something about using like idk foundry bul but i would have no damage
would using deflector even be good in that scenario?
it's the same...
Pristine example = 60%
Fenris with normal Focus = 10% ar bonus + 50% normal Focus buff
You’ll get overran if you don’t unhealth quick enough.
nope, it's not the same, focus gives total weapon damage which goes to a different multiplier
it's basically 1.6x vs 1.5x
Faster than I could type that.
im gonna try gimmicking with deflector
if your team has no damage and you decide to go tank, you're just delaying the inevitable imo. in some sections you literally might not have enough damage to kill a medic that's getting actively healed
I've seen people run a max skill tier foundry with deflector in legendary
at least deflector does do damage
Quick question- Tech Support says it gives a 25% buff for 25 seconds.
And The Perfected Variant says it gives the buff for 27 seconds.
But the Wiki states that Normal Tech Support is actually 20 seconds.
Just wanna know if this is true.
just don't go full tank
Wiki isn’t updated.
meh, you're not going to notice that 0.1 diff
Skill kills increase total skill damage by 25% for 20s (27s for perfect).
Isn't updated in which way-
again, it is just better for the same cost, you're not losing anything going for it
a lot of ways. it's just not actively maintained
I miss Pestilence stacks with hollow point transferring to other targets....that was an unnecessary nerf to ongoing directive
This is why I'm confused-
i'm blaming azurmen for this
let me update it to 25s. but yeah basically you don't want to go for perfect here because the brand is bad
That's what I was sayin earlier XD
yeah no worries. a lot of named items in this game have perfect talents but are intentionally placed on bad brands for "balancing", exceptions do exist ofc
Welp, I guess I'm hunting for my Wyvern Wear Tech Support-
Yea it isn’t we don’t use them normally.
(I'm going to regret this...)
yeah, go for that, and empress tech support
those bags are gonna be used in more than a few builds
Empress IS nice.
Does anyone know if the catalyst exotic is still bugged?
I mean- the 1 item bonus is kinda meh, but the 2 and 3 are great.
It’s still on there bug board
May I ask what are you building?
just tried running a strikers elmos build, lasted maybe 30 seconds including the 15 seconds for them to spawn
also an important tip, use only tall cover, avoid short cover
Short cover is a trap is how I explain it.
i mean capitol building doesnt have much tall cover in the entrance
decoy, turret or drone can provide enough of a distraction for you to change position, take down distracted targets.
You can also run a Determined Hotshot build if you want to get through the starting area fast.
you want to run through to the door to skip a lot of the ads. mostly the chunga and dogs.
ngl capitol probably shouldn't be your first legendary to learn soloing. it's quite hard and you need to learn some good spots. DUA is more straightforward to start with
toasteyxgod has a few guides on all the legendaries in the game and it's probably my first recommendation for someone getting into legendary. even if you aren't soloing the strats work well in groups
tbh i thought i could only do legendary for that day's daily mission
the tooltip is lying, it's weekly
I wish it didn't have such a shit hitbox
If I want to use the artificer hive what other skill do I want to use?
ahem Nuclear Turret.
Or Railgun Turret-
Nuclear turret?
Eh Whichever you wanna say.
makes no sense
Sniper Turret but BIG damage.
Boom boom turret or
3 chungus in second room of dua, what in the actual f-
Highest I've so far got is 11 Mil as a bodyshot.
TBH that section is easy
You ready for something that’ll hurt you
DEAR GOD-
Sniper Turret is not that great due to its slow and not that high of dmg vs other things you could do.
THAT'S NOT HEALING MY BROTHER.
Tbf, I'm using Datagloves for on demand Overclock.
he's the HHarmacist.
wtf why eggplant lmfao
Idk lmao
Like I’ve said before it’s all math. Just understanding the basics you can figure out how output dmg.
nerd
how is that even possible, my max stack sniper shot is like 20 mil
YES SIR. REPORTING IN.
Then pray
how so?
what's your build?
Ow my frames
I have to slow it down
It’s no build we call it Mrchow secret sauce
nah I know, was asking long name Jeff about their hsd
Easily get 30m w that build n nemi
No nem
M700 tac?
White Death
That’s racist sir
I have a clip some where here I know I did the max MMR can do
That Mmr is so good tho
I found it I looked up mrchow secret sauce in discord search bar all gd
I don’t remember how much was it?
is acosta go bag the best way to farm overdrive status?
28.5 mil i think
I mean I’m half blind and fully deaf so idk
LOL no sweat sounds right
There isn’t a best way to OC it depends on how you need and what can you give up to do it.
damage
just any form of absolute damage, including throwing unlicensed medication at people's faces
You’re willing to give up dmg?
no i want damage
okay so what is the definitive mortar build
Would the crusader sheild also work with artificer hive?
where may i find the gearsheet
Pinned Messages
thank you
not everything have to be racist. its a game bruh
I’m looking to grind a build and idk what to go for
Rn I have a skill build (turret,drone)
Any ideas?
Striker is always highly recommended.
Otherwise in the Pinned Messages there a Gdoc and builds in there.
What's a good support build?
support...
Healer and EP are the only ones I can think of 
Out heal and give bonus WD to agents with FI,
destroy skills within hive/SC radius and healing with FM,
aggro enemies while healing from skill dmg with Refractor
They all have their own ups and downs, their own purpose
There is also other support builds like tanks, and ect
There's a few out there. Support has probably widest range of builds.
This is main support build that is top of support builds it does a lot and do more with different things.
ssup, im new and just reached the end of base game content (not yet started NY dlc) ...how should i start making build and gearing up?...and for the loot, how to know which is which ( decon, sell, keep, favorite) ?
i personally use alps with skill haste and repair skills with FI BP while keeping FI chest
It's in the build guide. You don't need that much Skill Repair
The full guide has some of the math done for repair skill
If you're 40 Countdown is gonna be your best friend. The Pinned Messages has a GDoc with a ton of good info.
I mean it's just overhealing after 205 skill repair.
The thought if something can take more dmg and unalive faster the better.
thank you, oh i forgot about the "pins"....
then put skill haste instead
It's stated in the both guides.
We're just repeeating what's already stated in the guides.
Mortar Supremacy
is what youre looking for 😎
does the armour regen from refractor get affected by skill repair?
nothing but skill damage dealt effects repair from refactor
what would be a good specialization for a striker, heart breaker build? just starting out
is the guides in pins updated?..because i saw explanation that posted 3-4 years ago
Yes there still up to date not much has changed
We haven't updated the last updated for a bit
Gunner is best
gunner or Firewall in my opinion
Just start Tech you need to level it anyways
Hi everyone, still new to Division 2 and I played div 1 for like 17 hours so not much. I have gotten all striker gears pieces, the memento backup and coyote mask. I know I can only have 1 exotic. What build should I be looking for DPS with caretaker? I am trying to get my hands on either the big horn or the eagle bearer. But that’s gonna take some time
guys is the oxidizer build funny to play
it seems very interesting and im looking for a build to go for thats diff from just dmg
yeah, it works better with spawn camping
any1 know how to get striker armor ? i'been trying for hours to figur out something but most vid are just people yapping
Countdown or Summit target it
how to target it ?
I need to finish this Doc really
brother can i give you +rep or somthing ?
i hope u find all good things in ur life
Let me know if anything in the doc didn't make sense.
want me to help?
Sure!
do u have the like a whole file ?
That's pretty much the whole thing atm
Just kidding bruh chill 🤣
anything to boost chance of targeted loot ?
Not really.
why should i put a harder diffculty or a challange ? ?
you don't have to, but just know you'll continually get purple gear in normal and hard difficulty where challenging and heroic gives you highend yellow gear mostly
in case of count down challenging minimum and probably maximum really if you're working on your library and optimizing your builds is best, normal and hard not many run it so you'd be soloing it
Are rifles competitive compared to ar in the he build?
I would like to fully utilize foxes, although I imagine loss of 21% dth might hurt.
I don't think the difference would be that big
I think I should mentionwhy and when you should move up
For Rifles you want a OD build
Rifle has long has it's Sadist talent
yes, youll have rifle/ar most likely be your primary/secondary anyways. one of the few builds rifles have a chance to shine. nego is another good set for rifle/ar combo
stick with m1a cqb if going rifle
Og didn't even cross my mind. When tinkerer hits, sadist+flatline will be nasty...
wheeee (> <)
good morning people
what is the build that i really should consider building right now
ive tried hotshot but i feel like it really isnt for me so what build should i use and how do i quickly grind t
@narrow grove Most builds that you need quickly can be obtained via Countdown, just set the TL (targeted loot) that you need and run it on Challenging until you have what ya need.
As for ones that you "should make", the obvious answer is stuff that's in the spreadsheet, all of those are good for content, but don't be afraid to ask if one you find is decent, we're happy to help.
Hey all,
I’m running a focused 1886 rifle build that leverages the Determined talent and Perfect Headhunter synergy for massive headshot burst damage.
Key points:
Weapon: 1886 Rifle with Determined (next shot guaranteed headshot after kill)
Gear:
3x Breaking Point (mask, gloves, holster) for +10% headshot damage set bonus
Chainkiller chest (Walker & Harris) with Perfect Headhunter talent — core to the build
Zwiadowka backpack with Vigilance for weapon handling and utility
Fox’s Prayer kneepads for damage to targets out of cover
Stats focus: Weapon Damage + Headshot Damage on all gear and mods, plus Weapon Handling for smoother aiming
Skills: Decoy + Pulse (Scanner)
Specialization: Sharpshooter for extra headshot damage and stability
This build is great for chaining headshot kills without needing perfect aim every time, thanks to Perfect Headhunter and Determined. It melts elites and clears tougher content efficiently.
Would love to hear thoughts or tips to optimize it further!
My first thought: I have no idea how that wasn't flagged by the spam filter.
no kidding, that's a wall of text
not sure why 3 breaking point honestly
i'd drop those 3, go the contractor's gloves, and maybe 1 or 2 more of the Zwiadwka
so this...
Why 2 Zwaidwka? Is that extra weapon handling important?
Yeha, what so you think?
2 piece increases your rifle damage, 3 gives you weaponhanlding same amount as your 3 breaking point
Ah! Good point! Thx!
I've done this build. It works.
Cool thx!
Are these custom images or is this a full on new build tool?
I am on Countdown run #15 on Challenging with AR as the targeted loot without St. Elmo dropping. Am I doing something wrong or just really unlucky?
I still use mxswat
RNGesus hasn't bestowed the gift upon you yet. Keep farming. It's dumb luck. I'm struggling to find a GR9 with frenzy so I can slap DTA on it. It'll be for my umbra build
I had a GR9 drop with almost max crit chance and crit damage, so I just switched the perk to Frenzy
I would send you luck on your progress but I'm fresh out 🙃
Nah don't need that luck lol. I had ravvy and bighorn drop in dz last week and I extracted both. Just need CD to not be a pain in the ass with all the newbies on it. It's like herding cats bc nobody knows what to do anymore
new tool we've working on
Cannot wait to get my hands on it
when i recalibrate a gearset-piece like umbra would it lock said piece so that i cant optimise it anymore?
If you switch a stat to a different stat or optimize a stat, it will lock it.
but other attributes as well?
so if i recalibrate stat a, am i unable to optimise stat b?
Say that you have 2 stats,
They are out of 10% for example.
Stat 1 can be changed to a different 10% stat (non optimized),
but if stat is 9% and you optimize it to 10%, it will lock it out.
Stat 2 will be locked no matter what % it’s at, only thing it can be done is optimize to max stat.
Can anyone recommended a good roll for memento
Momento is fixed stats
Does it not have a random ?
There is no random on the exotic
90% of all exotic armor is fixed. Aka same exact stats you will get no matter what.
1-2 out of all of them. Is random. Momento is no one of them
Appreciate it m8 I thought as most of the weapons did the memento would too appreciate you broski 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Weapons for the minor attribute it now, that’s different 😂
so if my aim is to get an umbra piece with armor + hazard protection, i should aim for one that already got max weapon dmg already so i am able to optimize the not maxed hazard protection stat on it, right?
Ahhhh appreciate it I’m not long into division 2 and a lot has changed since div1😂
anyone have better idea for measured assembly build?
The only re-rollable exotic gear we have is Acosta's kneepads. But nobody uses those
Yea i got them and scrapped um ty appreciate the info 😂
I got you 🔥
How many times can a singular piece be edited to add a new attribute? I haven't played since release
@white mural You can modify a single attribute on a gun/gear, after that you cant edit any other slot on that particular item.
you can chance that one attribute as many times as you want.
Expected as much, thanks, I take it I'll have to find a close to god roll piece and then replace the weakest stat
If you want max weapon dmg still, you can roll on max haz pro. If you wanna change the core to armor or skill tier. You need haz pro on the attribute and optimize it from there.
It all depends what you want more later on. If needed. Or farm out another piece and do the same thing for a different attribute
alright @solar sable got the new ceska vest with obliterate and attributes i needed now i js need the ceska holster and strikers vest, and from what you told me last time, should i use the bloody knuckles over coyotes mask ?
no, it would be for a different build
ahh ok
that one with striker chest and bloody is for incursion bossing
ohh now it makes sense to me cause at first i aint know what was meant by the 1st section then swapping, i get it now tho appreciate it
havent done a single incursion yet nor a raid, slowly learning
dont do incursion u will get addicted!
i wanna do one for the 1st time i js dont know if ill be able to hold my own lol, hence why im asking for help on my build for incursion lol
The build you have is fine just use a Striker chest piece after the first area
You can get away with using a chest piece throughout I mean it aint that deep lol
sounds about right, anyways i appreciate the help gonna work toward getting that striker vest with decent attributes and hopefully the memento bag also
does iron lung scale with mag size or does its effect take 50% of the total mag size
like say i have a 153 mag, does the effect become 77 bullets to charge or stay 43
Well...50% is 50%
right but it says standard mag size in ability tooltip
okay so, the talent is LYING, "50% of the weapon's STANDARD magazine size"
except the bullet count DOES increase
unplayable weapon
goat weapon
Hi, sorry im new to the game, only got it when the new DLC came out. I was messing around with my build alot today and before i have these icons next to my hud, after messing with the build they are gone. Can someone help me with that triggers them?
think of it like a season modifier, it's a limited time thing
if you go into inventory it should be at the top above your guns if you want to know more
oh i noticed its todo with the new event SHD Exposed. When i activated it they went. When i turned the event thing off it came back! thanks!
not necessarily, if you turn shd exposed on or off it resets your world, thus getting rid of it, and shd exposed olny lasts a few days while this effect lasts all of the season (which there are almost 14 weeks left)
did someone do the math on the optimal amount of bullets in an 1886 reload for maximum dmg uptime?
fun fact: slepnir (perfect frenzy) gives 66% rpm and weapon damage when reloading from empty, when you have 180 bullets you can fully chain frenzy over and over
Are there any good websites to look up builds?
check pinned comments, they have a google spreadsheet of the most commonly used builds
what does mean "CQB" in hunter's build guide?
close quarters combt
close quarter battles
Best build for a tanky/dps build is heartbreaker or should i just get blue cores on a striker??
So what’s the easiest way to get The Ravenous, is it just the raid? If so, I can’t do that, what’s the alternative
Wanna make a max mag size for ravenous
There is no alternative. The Ravenous is locked behind the Iron Horse raid.
I stand corrected on that... DZ so I hear
Okay so should I just start grinding in the sweat fest zones or do I wait for a rifle DZ priority day
Raid is still by far the easiest place to get it
Hypothetically how long does the raid take
Should I use the discord as a recruitment center
roughly an hour +/-
Depends on the group. I have had it go for over an hour more than once
I hear that GCRock discord server does raids often
I’m like Dz level 5
Well done? haha
Which Dz is the least “I’m going to get my shit ran”
I don't frequent DZ, I think you are equally cooked in any of them
Wasn’t a brag but a cry for help, I’m straight up dogshit at the game, can do heroic strongholds
But like that’s it
Look for a raid group, it is tiring I know, but by far the best to "hope to get" Ravenous. Sometimes another player that get one will drop it for you.
Ok thank you
is strikers still the best for dps cuz i saw a dude hitting 12 mil yesterday with umbra initiative
granted it was in the firing range and not on a boss but it was still crazy
Looking for a good EB build, currently using striker
Check the pinned google doc. For IH the standard high end dps build is ideal for IH, but a typical strikers build works as well.
General point, if your talking about the range DPS calc just ignore that, its wildly inconsistent and not a good way to measure builds
making a crit reg build. does explosive damage boost regulus explo damage?
depends on shd level and your builds
crit reg build
youd be surprised but it works
1.7m crit body shots and 3m crit headshots
Can you explain that?
Shouldn’t they all be the same
theres shd brackets. each level is tiered differently
SHD 555
yeah youll likely run into moderately experienced players. considering youre on console
How did you know it was 12 mill?
the higher the SHD level, basically the more hardcore players youll see
does explo damage boost regulus explo damage?
Yes
yellow number is explo with demo. last number is with survivalist. it does boost regulus explo damage
im pretty sure anyways
lemme keep testing
If My criticals with Assault rifle are hitting up to 1Mil is that good?
yeah 3.3m. with demo it boosts it to 3.5m. 200k more damage
yes. question is tho what is your chc?
Can I see my CHC total on my stats?
yes
its important to calculate DPS instead of just looking at how high your crits can be. Only looking at your crit number can be very misleading/meaningless
last number looks like a crit tho
hello agents, is there any decent build for PVP?
Armor and Damage would be perfect. (is it enough for use striker battlegear?)
me eyes bleed
why?
i checked in the range, the explo damage of nearby targets match that number
so my theory of demo boosting reg's explo damage on talent proc was correct
sorry for my ignorance but what does DPS mean?
regulus is not effected by explosive damage
im seeing 3.3m damage with reg explo without demo. then with demo, im seeing 3.5m damage
DPS, damage per second
does anyone have a substitute for the Fenris chest piece in this build? its making me lose my mind trying to get at least 2-3 correct rolls
Striker / St. Elmo Build
Guns
St. Elmo's Engine (DMG to targets out of cover/Critical Damage)
Rock n' Roll (Mag Size)
Striker Gear Set
Striker's Mask (🔵 + Crit Chance + Crit Damage mod)
Striker's Holster (🔵 + Crit Chance)
Striker's Kneepads (🔵 + Crit Damage)
Striker's Gloves(🔵 + Crit Damage)
Other Pieces
Fenris (🔵 + Crit Damage + Crit Damage/Chance + Crit Damage/Chance mod + Obliterate)
Liquid Engineer (🔵 + Armor Regen + Crit Chance + Crit Damage mod) / Memento
Skills
Precision Smart Cover
Decoy
Gunner Spec
ceska
with demo, then with survivalist
anything specific?
so yeah, explo damage boosts regulus
im mainly asking since its been killing me trying to get a fenris chestpiece with crit damage and chance and obliterate all at the same time
nothing else is chaging? Like you dont have the 15% WD on pistols for demo and not survivalist?
ceska chest would be better anyways
but also equally as RNG difficult to get
nice catch. youre right. they need to rework specialists
its a dumb hold over from the original way specs worked....
💔
chests and backpacks are always the hardest to get since your trying to get 3/4 rolls correct instead of just 2/3
you are right @urban latch . i redact my statements. they need to just give us weapon damage bonuses in all weapon categories. this "select your preferred weapon bonuses" is stupid
sharpshooter it is then since ill boost my HSD a tad bit more
That's unlucky right? I can't Tinker CHD AND a Talent on it right? Can only do one of them right?
reroll for CHD and keep that for a pvp piece. thats my take on it
Will never play PvP, only here for some casual PvE 😄
trash it
Unlucky
welcome to division 2
well dont trash it, but add it to your library
Y, will do that
the HSD from sharpshooter only applies to MMRs and rifles fyi
damn. thats wack. again further validates specialist rework is desperately needed. i could use it for this tho
Is this for a regulus HH build I assume? Imo your not really going to notice that on the regulus, but youd often pair a MMR/1886 on that build anyways, so sharpshooter makes sense. I typically either run technician for the +1 tier on the bulwark shield or firewall for the striker shield
nah this is with PVP for conflict and DZ
i have a HSD reg build on one character. on my other one im doing crit regulus (dont knock it till you try it). my crits are immaculate but im trying to see how to best make the build perform. specialists is where its hanging me up
For pvp the medkit becomes a big factor tbh
popping an armor kit on demo boosts my weapon handling and so does sharpshooter. i was certain demo boosted explo damage but quickly learned its all pistol damage based. i wanna use firewall but at the same time, dont. the bonuses helps my weapons a bit better as this build is meant to play at distance
firewall i would take of course for the armor kit bonus. just trying to avoid that for differing bonuses
this is a close range build though?
it works at distance and can be close range
the regulus only has an optimal range of 16, basically smg range
plus you need to be hitting headshots
typically i hit once in the body, then once in the head and it usually drops enemies very quickly. headshot damage would be the most optimal ofc. i went with crit to see how reg would do and im loving the performance so far. the specialist is whats screwing me over. the crit headshots are nice and allows me to take any gun i want. i keep falling back to the specialists tho bc i am in a "choice crisis"
whats your chc?
60
whats your chd?
with pistol selected
at range, thats what my chd will be at. close range, way more. the hsd on reg is already high enough
I might just go with Demo/Sharpshooter/Firewall. the flashbang and weap handling bonuses on sharpshooter is nice. demo for dtoc bonuses and the armor kit weap handling bonuses. firewall for the consistent regen on medkit pop
sigh. going with firewall. that regen bonus is too hard to pass up
im probably not going to bother rerolling this but would it have been better for it to have rolled with dmg to out of cover?
basically always
Typically yes, since DTA and sometimes DTTOOC work with skills.
What are the odds to get this from the First time? And what Build can I use for it?
for the foundry bulwark set gear it has a perk refering to a shield, is that for the riot shield or is it refering to something else?
hunter's fury and strikers works fine
all shields
awesome thank you!!
I highly recommend putting any useful weapon as Favorite so you don't trash them accidentally.
@strong cave @urban latch 🙏
whats the talent?
tamper proof unfortunately
Id just reroll the talent then. thats a solid start/placeholder though
amen
how can i regenerate protection when i deal damage to an enemy?
you can run things with armor on kill like hunters fury. Clutch exists but really isnt worth it
Gunner has 10% armor on kill as well as palisade(1 pc brand set bonus) so you can get an ez 10% from either or 20% if you run both.
whats the best atribute to roll on kingbreaker for a hb build
haha congrats on it btw bro :) you did great for ur first run
dttooc
on top of the armor on kill stuff mentioned above, you can run heartbreaker... its stacks generate damage as well as bonus armor
wait a minute i can matchmake for raids through the raid screen?
thx
only for discovery, so u cant get the raid exclusives
im matchmaking normal
whaatt that must be a visual glitch then i think😅
if you get matched, itll be discovery.
Oh
youll also get matched exclusively with people who have no idea what they are doing. discovery is a complete mess and only proof of concept why theres no matchmaking for the raids
Hey all I have a question that I just can't seem to work out. I see some people with 30- 100% resistance to pretty much everything and upon inspecting the gear, they only have a bit of hazard protection as a mod. Where is the rest of the resistance coming from??
random mm discovery raids are the real endgame dont let anyone tell you otherwise
what are the two best gadgets to run with solo and im only level17
Do the funny, striker drone and assault turret
yeah i was thinking somthing like that have enough other stuff for them to shoot at
Season modifiers.
I'm a new player and I actually enjoy the drone a lot. do drone builds exist?
Skill builds :D
so I can just go full skill?
Yea each skill tier increases the damage and iirc the duration of the drone
great! 🙂
Refactor build there's a build in the pinned messages gdoc build hub
I have "fun" enough time watching players do that in an incursion but in a raid... God..
yes, check the pinned spreadsheet in this channel
I want to use the technician specialization what skills do I want to use with it?
couple of mine , highend and refactor. all skill damage/haste
oh nice, thanks for the help guys 🙂
depends on the build you are going for
No Idea wanna use artficer hive I just don’t know what to else to use
dps benefits from shield and artificer
Ok
shield gets a free skilltier from the spec. adding memento gives the shield 2 more skill tiers and the artifice gets 1 more
Memento?
Measured Assembly + Artificer + Deflector Shield that’s what you need 💪 did I cook guys
Sorry new I should have mentioned I only got the games a few days ago
hey there, i just returned as well, learning about all the new stuff
are skill builds still super squishy?
offense oriented
if you play PVE alone then any build is considered good as long as you have fun
holy aura
if you have 3 hours to spare I think you’ll do just fine
use this MATCHMAKING :))
yea, didnt get too many members to attempt
I mean if you plan on killing things with a skill build you should have glass cannon on but yeah that makes you one shot. But if your turret and drone are killing everything then you shouldn’t really be pulling aggro 🙂
depends on what legendary and if the global event is on, time of day I guess as wel
will the hard wired passive still work after the directives are on?
i was trying to use the seeker mine with just pure yellows and it was tough
But if you plan on matchmaking I wouldn’t put on directives like that lol
I saw a video with infinite refresh seeker, but it seems like legendary will just dodge out of the way
are seeker useless in the higher tiers?
I wouldn’t say useless but yeah the AI are on steroids
survival skill shield+drone best?
Drone and Turret unfortunately the easiest and likely best skill build for legendary
Can also do mortar on DUA and stuff where it’s not that open
refactor leg capital just now, didnt take 3 hrs
. granted the team was ok
5digit, 1500 agent, 150 agent as team
i think refactor is a good middle ground for damage and healer
Yeah I mean 2 people on DPS is pretty much winning the lottery nowadays in legendary mm
no doubt
that after action isnt making the refractor look great tbh
is running gunner tech 😭
exotic bag, has a ton of attributes associated once you stack the talent. here is a copy pasta :
I look at all it does. Cores and long buff only (at full stacks) represent:
-45% weapon damage
-2 shield tiers
-free armor and skill core
Skill efficiency (% in all Skill Buckets)
-30% skill damage
-30% status effects
-30% skill duration
-30% skill health
-30% skill haste
-30% skill repair
-# skill buckets™️
-3% armor regen
Short buff adds temporary core dependent boosts. so weapon damage, more skill efficiency, bonus armor.
its refactor
, we both know it isnt winning any races. not the point tho.. holds its own
i mean, id argue you made a case just there that it didnt
i dont waste skilltiers like raucey did on his oxi build 
is st elmos engine the best AR for DPS curently?
lexington if you have it, otherwise famas, f2000, or caretaker
eh, did 21% of the damage while constantly healing. where does fi usually sit damage wise on a 4man leg?
no, i was healing with refactor. the closest equivalent would be fi
oh... so your on a skill build?
🤦♂️
did I just miss where you posted your build? because what your running doesnt make sense lol
Im dumb and was thinking oxpecker......
the point of the after action wasnt to brag, was to show refactor not really hindering the team. 20min clear, not last place in damage, with refactor chest so not high damage, but better heals
yeah fair enough
does snapshotting work in this game? say my skill tier is at 5 but i pull out the kard custom to get it to 6, when i pull out the drone and turret will it stay at t6 until it gets destroyed?
nvm answered my own question - its no
What gun types should I use with technician sheild build? Shotguns and smgs or should I use a rifle somewhere
in general no
ar. post a ss of build if possible
ar usually the best all around.. build will determine what the preferred secondary should be
I’m still lvling Im only lvl 33. Im just asking so I know what to plan ahead 4
oic
check out the pinned spreadsheet in this channel. when you get to that point, each guide will have weapon suggestions to point in the right direction.
What does lz stand 4
Light Zone AKA Open World
Anything in the LZ, or if you're after a specific piece of gear, you farm the area or mission
Ok
Hey guys, I have question about frenzied mag size maxxing
Since frenzy gives weapon damage, would running full tank with memento work as a means of solo clearing work?
Also they should make a gear set with minecraft thorns enchantment as the ability
Solo heroic u can run with whatever really.
Memento is such a good item in general.
Imo, frenzy mag size stacking is not worth it, id rather use "normal" dmg sets/talents and have higher dmg ceiling.
Frenzy is fun to use, but with LMGs u need to understand how to maximize frenzy uptime and im sure its not worth it in most case.
What u could do with frenzy, is that use 2 LMGs with frenzy, leave few bulltets in magazine, swap, shoot those few bullets, reload, frenzy, dump to almost empty, swap....etc....
Lots of reloading tho, but its fun, especially with Umbra. With right LMG u can just dump all the mag in 9seconds.
SPRAY AND PRAY!
does anyone have advice for an early-ish endgame rifle build? I can tell you mine if you know how i could optimize better and what to look for, im kinda a noob.
I have played with rifles quite a lot, u can DM or just post it here.
Is this Brooklyn's vendor not working? For Global Event
just trying to sell me lvl 30 gear
OD build is great for Rifle and new players.
In the Pinned Messages, Gdoc, build hub those are all good builds that's still very muched used.
should I keep my Sokolov piece or run a walker piece instead? if we assume both are god rolled with crit rolls, what would do more damage?
If I’m not wrong with Memento Grupo is better. If you had a HE BP then Soko is better.
There’s a point where WD is better than CHD. This only really applies to SMG due having CHC already.
This is iirc right when I was doing math for incursion speed runs pre-nerf Ouro
I've already got a lot of crit
it seems that the higher the weapon damage goes, it can go to silly levels of damage. I popped assault link while I was fighting and I jumped from around 850K damage to 1.2 million
But I'll grab a grupo chest and a walker chest, then test them both
I can do the math later. The math I had it’s was for Striker w/Chest
It if works it works.
it's best if all your pieces are working towards a specific goal. So if you're running a sniper build, you'd want all your attributes to be headshot damage and weapon handling
It doesn’t need to be prefect off the bat.
There's no pressure. I won't be testing until tomorrow anyway, I really need the sleep
Emphasis on this. Perfection is something you work towards!
You want for what you have on here? It’s not hard to do.
Once buildstation.app is done they’re working on a thing to calculate builds and changes.
I'll give it a look
I'm squeezing this HF build for all it's worth, I need it to be able to do what I want
It works handily in legendary, the issue is just getting close enough for the damage to kick in
Ouro would be the key here
Or SMG9
I swap between Ouro and Chatterbox quite a lot
I can't use SMG-9. The little peashooter look just does not agree with me
My compare video I’m doing against the BF blue hazpro I’m thinking of doing a HF SMG one
HAHA fair but it’s sooo good
technically at 5 stacks Chatterbox outdamages Ouro
It’s like that gun from MiB
Little Locust???
yeah, in legendary it's only feasible in certain situations. I'll usually use Ouro at the start of the mission when I'm still building memento stacks, then I'll switch to Chatterbox and camp enemy spawns
Oddly enough, Capitol building is great for chatterbox
Capitol and DUA is much easier to run it and HF.
probably why they're my favorite legendary missions. Long sightlines just mess me up
Also why there’s the easiest of the all of them.
No
damn that sucks
Don't expose me like this 😭
It’s the only 2 I’ve solo. I’ve hate grinding things solo.
I would try, but I just don't see the point. If there was a cool reward, there'd be an incentive.
the whole reason it takes me weeks to do an incursion or raid is because I'm socially anxious 🤣
It’s just a challenge and proofing to yourself you’re actually good at the game.
I like playing with others
Be honest, you like bringing pain to yourself
Why do you people hurt to make me remember my choices.
Chatterbox is a piece of ass to farm - goddang boxes.
Um you can’t target it unless you have the blueprint already.
Yea, im farming the hyena boxes. Thought they were sure fire but the parts are still RNG
They weren’t that bad when I did it. I think it took me a day. I can’t remember.
My gripe is with farming keys as well. They rng too lol
anyone have a good skill build for pve?
Which skills?
striker drone and firestarter chem launcher
i should be running all red on my heartbreaker build right?
If you want to start fires Eclipse Protocol is what you want.
For drones, Refactor.
The issue of both skills together Status Effects scales from Staus Effects stats and Drones are from Skill Damage.
Both builds should be in Gearsheet.
That's on you. Yes would be my be my answer but w/e works for you.
how do you feel about oxidizer builds
caus the thing is i have a bit of skill issues so im planning to add some blue cores
Very very niche
Powerful when in their element though
Other than what naval said.
But in saying I think I have one of the most in-depth oxi guides. For that reasons said above.
Just curious, for a dps build what's the balance between CHC and CHD that we're looking for that's ideal? I've currently got a 32.3% CHC and 140.8% CHD and I'm just wondering if it would be ideal to get that CHC up a bit by sacrificing some CHD or not? Thanks.
basically, you'll want 55-60% chc (60 is max, this season modifiers allows us go past that maximum) and everything else dumped into damage
Is it better to get that through system mods or attributes or doesn't really matter?
one build i can easily reach that 55-60 is 3 providence, fox's, contractor's and currently the mask is a place holder for this seasons finale mission exotic is Coyote's
i know ceska gives us a good double digit chance so you can put that in to get closer to 55-60 if you want to
I probably should have mentioned I'm running a striker build so might be a little harder to reach the max CHC eh?
Just for reference:
that 1 ceska piece will et you there
aside the talent, people would suggest Obliterate looks like a fist on fire icon
I will mention that I'm looking to grind for St. Elmo's too which should give that +15 CHC whenever I get there
Yeah for sure that and St. Elmo's are my two big missing pieces
A better rolled Coyote's too and I'm happy
crit wise probably the weapon, watch are you 2 biggest stuff you're probably missing currently
The idea is that you want to close has you can get to CHC cap 60% without going over.
But since you have Coyote, 50-54% is perfect.
Anyone know of a good Aegis build?
It's trash any way you put it unfortunately
Main draw is the total armour bonus you could use on a key tank build for IH
Okay good to know Thanks 👍
is there any value fora full blue, haz pro, pfe foundry bulwark build for countdown? i just rush up to face tank hunters. is this build good enough or im just trolling
It doesn't work that well because then your body blocking your team from DPS the hunter. He'll still chunk you down since you won't have your shield since you won't have enough hazpro to be immune to pulse
Hazpro EP so you can Sticky him works a lot better
with seasonal modifiers i made it work
Oh right modifiers
you'll be dead weight for the other 7 players and hunters will still wreck you
forgot that crap. naw he can live he has his shield
It's a one trick pony tank like all tanks
even if everyone doesn't run with modifiers?
I have no idea.
well I think it will be better to do eclipse set haz pro them u can foam then for the team
I forget if there on or not and just go for leggo runs
Also had running The Setup to help team buff
I do that a lot in CD
Supporting is much better than "tanking" since you can only hold agro for one
Like I get everyone like to do tank. I do but it's not that simple in this game to be a Helpful Tank.
any suggestions for an eclipse haz pro setup?
I prefer creeping death on backpack
cause I use it at the end too
Any good solo skill builds or any skill builds that involve damage?
In normal mission yeah but when you don't have that many target that buff is soo much more help but then again that's only needed in heroic CD
Yes plenty of them in the Pinned Messages.
Strikers, HB and HF are all there
Okay thanks
I mean builds that have a lot of yellow cores and use skills
Sorry
Yeah I get ur point but I prefere creepy. I had try it with the setup but I miss my creepy
hello all, I've been trying to throw together an oxidizer build, but haven't been getting much dmg out of it.
what does the tick damage depend on, status effect or skill damage?
some YT vid said that health dmg also had effect?
Search my name in this channel for "Oxi Build" you'll find a full guide
Oxi is Niche skill ads will jump out of it if there in open.
Fire EP. Works great.
well I think cuse u can do croud control mobs with fire (on fire they don't shoot or stay in cover)
In the Pinned Messages > GDoc > Build Hub. There's bunch of builds there.
oh I see, thanks
how do we get the blue gear?
refractor set
I just came back after a few years
Count down target loot
i didn't see this when i was chasing it for the 2nd time. there's a challenge in Summit to obtain it
complete 5 challenge in the summit
if u never have it
idiot here deleted 1 capacitor, ran countdown and other AR target loot trying to obtain 2nd/3rd capacitor. reconfigured one and never favorited it again after that so poof to exotic component
I'm trying out the intimidate and andrenaline rush from the Matador bag - can I get a tip on what set and weapon works best? Currently running it with Hunter Fury Backfire.
depends on your playstyle
Any suggestions, that synergizes with these? Would it work on striker, specific weapon talents, etc
It depends on your gameplay style...
Do you like getting close, far, mix, cover etc etc..
intimidate and adrenaline rush is pretty much best on HF.
Do not use Backfire
Gameplay usually on close - moving from cover to cover as backfire tends to have more dmg that way. Any weapon suggestions with talents? I keep hearing about smg 9 but I have no idea what talent.
Killer, Measured generally the best.
Is there any good exotic gear to run with the refactor gear set?
not really. Unless you're willing to go hybrid
btsu glove is applicable if you run a hive
He's solo
can also use waveform
i mean, theyre skill exotics if they choose to use.
not to mention the dreaded ninja bike bag 
but i see your point
still room for a bag talent with wave or btsu tho. if not running the refactor chest youre better off just running a highend turret drone
solo should be highend as well. its easy to build in aok on highend afk
Hi guys, sorry, brain isn't great at figuring out the min max process. Do I farm till I get a piece with 2 good stats and replace the last one? Is that the best way to fill each slot?
Depends on the piece but generally yes, if it has a talent then you want the rest of the stats to be good because you're more likely to want to switch talents around in the future than stats
Hurts my brain a little trying to gear up, is there a recommended guide I can watch to make use of the build guide sheet in the pins by any chacne?
re-learning the crafting/gearing side of this game has been a pain in my neck over the past 4-5 days 😂
you want anything you're farming to be one recalibration away from being solid for your build.
2/3 correct rolls on core/attributes for knee/glove/mask/holster, and
3/4 correct core/attributes/talent for chest/bag/weapons
there is a sheet pinned here with a builds tab and detailed breakdowns are linked for each
many thanks localdeck, helps me get a grasp on what i need now. i had a build sheet in mind so i'll try and queue for countdown for it :)
it's a lot so i feel very overwhelmed at the moment even with memories of the game
feel free to post screenshots of wip builds and someone will give feedback if its going right direction, or where improvements can be made to put it in the right direction
considering i havent played since baker's dozen was a meta gun - is it best to just farm for a baseline then increase pieces gradually as it drops?
an easy early build will be striker. it can make it through all content and will make farming quicker
yeah, get the best you can and replace as needed
cheers :) i'll look at a striekr build first then
nice, welcome back agent 
strikers is meta dps
4 pc strik, + cayote + ceska obliterate chest, red rolls = gg
Sup Agents. Newcomer here👋🏾 I just hit lv40..I see guys talk about specific builds...any advice on the topic would be much appreciated. I see guys hit 500k+ damage.. how even? 😅
There is a gdoc file in the pinned messages of this channel that have all the answers to your questions. Gl agent
build synergy. dps are based off red cores
weapon damage , total weapon damage , crit chance and crit damage. also bonus attributes, like damage to target out of cover, are all multipliers. youll stack as much as you can without affecting your crit chance.
code blocks represent different "buckets", each bucket multiplies with all the other buckets.
the build guides will break down what you should focus
its also not a bad idea inspecting agents in group that were wrecking npcs to gain some insight
Thank you 🙏🏾 I've been inspecting agents for that specific reason 😅
Can you change blue to red cores?
Yes
Oh wow, I thought it wasn't possible for some reason, thanks!
As long as u didn’t roll the attribute first.
Looking for advice. Have a HB setup. 4r/2b. Memento BP and contract gloves using bluescreen exotic. All attributes set to HS dmg. Shit is slapping heoric as is. But is there a better setup?
i think flatline on your main gun is preferred with heartbreaker, plus whats your crit at?
Built my first all red striker build and the damage is lovely but looking for something with more survivability/ face tank build or recovery. Don’t mind losing some damage just want to farm another build with those ^
contractors, memento, hb doesnt sound like a lot of crit chance tbh
He's doing HSD.
It's all a playstyle afterwards
HB
oh yea cheers my bad lol
Went HS damage.
@hazy steeple you wanna take this thing?
Yeah that sounds about right.
hey anyone know a simple way to go about the SHD exposed day 3 challenge to "disrupt" 3 hostiles at once?
Does Striker only drop with red core? Because I have nothing but red striker gear and an needing blue.
Blues drop
@loud narwhal Yep!
Striker only drops with red, but you can change 1 "thing" about the piece, either an attribute or the core.
IIRC there's 1 Gear Brand that drops with a different core depending on the piece, but the rest are static.
One person said blues drop, one said they don't
Blue core striker pieces drop
I'd like a screenshot of this happening, since it'd be a recent change if they did.
Gear/brand is designed like that because of the builds they're usually associated with.
It's why the majority of the attributes you get with Striker pieces are red, since it's weighted to be the same as the Core.
At work but I’ll send u screen shots. I have blue core striker build that I rolled the attributes on.
Likely a glitch if you do have it, that'd be a heck of a change to miss.
Huh? From my understanding it’s always been like this
@subtle bluff You'd probably know, any weight to this claim?
Yeah the whole "rainbow protection" scandal.
The sheer amount of puns I made let me remember that one.
The Grude's Perfect Vindictive: Killing an enemy with a status effect applied grants you and all allies CHC and CHD.... will this work with Hunter's Fury Apex Predator?
What do you mean?
If something is CC and you kill it with Grude it procs.
What do you mean what do I mean? Will the status effect applied work with Apex Predator?
enemies within 15m recieve a debuff, amplifying your weapn dmg against them.
Killing a debuffed enemy with your weapon disorients other enemies wthin 5m and applies weapon dmg stacking up to 5 times
you can roll blue/yellow attributes onto it, but what they are saying is that strikers will never naturally drop with a armor or skill tier core
if you kill a target with HF and it disorients a nearby enemy, yes that will proc vindictive
If you kill the target that’s disoriented yeah. The red debuff showing that Apex predator is active will not… if that’s the question.
Yea. I swear I got a blue core, but I could be wrong and probably am.
Cause everywhere I check does state red core only
When you get a chance just check the recalibration table. If the only thing that can be recalibrated is the core attribute that should give the evidence you need.
i am new in this sniper thing
i always use ARs but thought why not use Snipers
i got this build from Youtube. Hitting 27m around.
BUT
Sometimes,the determined buff doesnt one shot some enemies (Not talking about Helmet enemies)
i dont know how the Chainkiller or Hotshot talent actually works
as you guys can see,sometimes i cant oneshot
if there is any proper explaination,do let me know
most of the time,the oneshot works
you have to do enough damage to kill the enemy your shooting at. Otherwise you'll lose the chaining effect of headhunter and determined
named enemies have a lot of health on heroic, which is where options like the nemesis or M870 shotgun come into play to deal with them
from your clips it looks like at max HH stacks your doing enough damage to kill it, but in the clip you dont you only hit 8m probably because you lost your HH stacks
Where can i calculate the stack?
The skull icon?
the headhunter icon
@hushed gorge imagine throwing turmoil knees into the mix (> <)
Used the kneepad
Wasnt effective that Much for me
nods reds/purples around you kill 2 at once XD
Yea i know
But you cant get the 25+M dmg numbers
tried with pistol build, not as great as i'd hoped
Yep
I got foked up real bad
now that i have a proper Claws Out holster it's fun XD
without turmoil that is
still tryijng to figure out a fun set up with it 🤔
now that i think about it, don't think i ever tried with punchdrunk 🤔
Its easier to get the HH rolling with the Dodge city, fast and effective. Cant forget Nemesis also from the mix. Never felt need for shotgun, just too clunky.
whats your avg dps?
i take the revolver is Harvest
so it should hit like a truck
i preetty much switched the chest for naimed chainkiller and kneepads for regular ones from the new set
I was about to say that
i'm tempted honestly, right side all Imminence left all named
sighsgotta be kidding me, i destroyed my knees i had before fox's
only difference i think is i don't lose damage when i get hit
Vigilance better as you get the damage on first shot when you need it most (if hh stacks are down), with concussion you're only getting it for a shorter timeframe after getting that first kill
is it possible to get The Harvest or Chillout mask right now?
not currently
hopefully a summer event starts and he drops some kind of water pistol for us 😹
If you look at the headhunter icon on the chest, that symbol will show up when you have headhunter stacks, along with a bar for how close to max stacks you are. Keep in mind the max stacks is capped by the base damage of your currently active weapon. So say you build stacks with your MMR, swap to an AR for a second and without shooting swap back to your MMR. Simply swapping to the AR will re-cap your HH stacks to that low base damage level
sadness
the hh icon sometimes bugs out btw
Is the striker build still a viable build? Haven't been playing since y4
yeah it's still our top recommendation
Any weapons that I should look out for to go with it?
this should have all you need
is it even possible to find a ceska chest with chd chc and weapon dam?
Yes
All I see is one of the both and weapon handling, like 24/7 😄
Well
If you are that unlocky,try tinkering
ye but then i can't put a glas cannon on it 😄
Target for one Crit stat and preferred talent
Then tinker the other useless stat
i either have to find one with glas cannon on it, or with chc and chd
Hm
2p Hana-U, 1p Wyvern/1p Sacrifice. what does wyvern/sacrifice mean? is that a stat combination?
either wyvern or sacrifice. wyvern is a brand set; sacrifice is a named item that has perfect glass cannon
if I understand that correctly, I will have mask/holder/pads and hands with refactor
chest and bag is either 2x hana-U or 1x wyvern and 1x sacrifice
oh, in this case you either use 2p hana-u or wyvern + sacrifice
context matters in this case
I was about to add right? but slowmode :/ anyway... sacrifice is still a named item for chest/bag?
It can, but it is rather rare to say the least. I am not so convinced it is just up to luck, RNG and all, however. Dropped after 170 floors in the summit over a couple of days, yesterday.
Uff high rolls
a couple bumps and recal to obliterate, and done.
I have to find one first 😄
named chest
thanks 🙂
you want to target the providence brand for it btw
uhm what does that mean? 😅 sorry
sacrifice is a named chest under the providence defense brand. you can farm it with providence as targeted loot
ohhh okay I wasn't aware. I thought I can select sacrifice (in summit for example). thanks!
but I would more likely go for hana-U
I have had the Sacrifice drop in Summit, more often than the Ceska, or Grupo chest pieces (CHD/'CHC,) when targeting other pieces such as China Light and Wyvern... go figure
haha 😄
does priority objectives have a chance for Catharsis?
should do
say i wanted to make a signiture weapon build, which signiture weapon would be best?
technician rockets go brrr
cause sure, you go tip of the spear (hopefully), but what else
im unironically about to go farm tip of the spear
what am i doing
And grenade launcher goes boom
ok is it even worth farming tip for a journey mission?
What do you think for PVP?
I hate it 👍
First run of countdown targeting ceska I got a good one with chc and chd
i cant find extra padding passive in library, where is it?
Well, gz!
"extra padding passive" is a Global Modifier.
thanks, where is best place to find alot elite enemies in mission?
Probably stronghold?
heroic ones yes
Try hit countdown mate best shot imo
Bro i‘ve run over 70 runs and didnt get a single chd chc or one attribute with glass cannon chest😂
All i see is hs dmg or weap handling😂
Rng be rng sometimes bro 😂 you could always switch one attribute out tbf but you’d need a decent one with atleast some one good stat and the talent you want I won’t lie took me along time to find one with the talent I wanted should’ve added that 😂😂😂😂got a few chc and chd ones with the talent I didn’t want but switched it out on the best one for overload
And doing countdowns 24/7 is giga boring😂
I actually find it crazy how ppl are 70k+ shd level
There were lots of XP events a few seasons ago, others did exploits and others just got there from playing for ages
Right now having an extremely high SHD level doesn't mean anything
what would i want as a talent on a AR striker build?
im playing with this atm
That's good but you shouldn't have recalibrated CHC on it instead of DTOC
You can change that slot as long as it's not optimized (which isn't the case here)
aa ok noted, will do it in future on other weapon, this is provisory, farmed shield splinterer but didnt find it better than lud for now, will change lud also in future, i have some other replacements of weapons
DTOC is damage to targets out of cover?
yup
Hi all, just looking for advice to make this better?
The blue mods I have for PFE
I can switch for Crit dmg, was just getting more protection
- Trash Ninjabike. Use Striker bag.
- Why so many blues?
- Swap Picaros for Striker holster.
- Using too many blue cores not only makes you deal less dmg but makes you struggle to kill on harder content.
If you want a build that works better for survivability, use Red HB instead.
I should swap holster and bag for striker? Just bag and then a different holster. Whats HB?
Just trying to get a build where I can do legendary/master
Tbh, adding blue cores in PvE makes you a higher quality bullet sponge.
HB aka Heartbreaker.
Using blue cores in legendary or master is (I may be wrong) unoptimal since you'll get easily overwhelmed by not killing them enemies fast
Same for raids im guessing? More red cores replaced?
I was doing picaros because it gives 10% weapon damage, skill haste and skill tier.
Is the better option to do coyotes with 4 striker and the same chest piece I currently have
Yup, if you want to use Memento instead of Coyote's keep in mind you'll have to play differently to get mem stacks
NBB always takes from your Max potential of the build. It nerfs dmgs
What's the best non-exotic MMR?
Lud with strikers seems to output insane numbers as for AR build. When stacks are up hitting 1.3-2.1 mil per shots is well nuts atleast for PvE and heroic with directives
Of course you can just go with onetap rifle build but meh, personal preference.
yep i found it my favourite as im new and not many items to choose from
never saw someone recommend it but i found stats nice and i love it so far
i luckily dropped another lud 5 mins ago with alot better stats vs my old LUD, and put DTOC instead of crit chance
im new player still learning 😄 this channel helped me alot, community is the best!
well i think if you swap ceska chest for fenris one with obliterate, you can hit harder than ceska but for what it is right now, it's probably my favorite meta as for pve, onetap 1886 build is op too
You can swap Strega AR aswell, kill one red ad with it close to named elites or whatever, put +15% more damage for them and then go to Lud, shreds even faster
Passive modifier bud
well, but where is it? Dont see it in library
Thank You! i forgot about this thing
Enjoy
ooops
Is it worth sacrificing 8k dmg for 300k armour? To be more specific, I'm swapping a legstus mask with 13.2 wd, 8.8 headshot, and 5.3 cc for a gila mask with max armour. Is it worth it?
Armor basically never worth outside of pvp builds. Post build because there are probably much better options than the ones you're asking about
Well I've only been playing for less than a week and through playing casually those are the best options I have stuffed away in my stash, in terms of masks
Currently, are you using the build like dps (weapon damage) or more as tank
For PvE don't
It's easier to wipe enemies with full dps build than do a combo of 'somewhat hybrid build' and take 3x time to complete activities
Ok. So focus on ceska, grupo for highend pieces, then farm out either heartbreaker, striker, or umbra
Consider coyote mask, memento bag as possible exotics
Okay I'll bare that in mind
Memento heartbreaker with a ceska piece probably offers the best damage/survivability . Striker is top damage. Umbra has a healing feature but is mostly dps
Umbra is useful only in PvP honestly, perfectly made Strikers outdps anything tbh
In PvE
The pinned spreadsheet in this channel has a lot of good guides and will give an idea of what you're looking for
Well I'm just looking for pve rn and I just don't have the memento bag
I have ninja bike kneepads
Its not needed, but is a solid choice when one drops
For PvE anything, Strikers + Lud weapon shred everything but keep some distance if you're going full red cores, you'll be dealing anyways 900-1.1m a shot to an enemy
Dont use those. Just not good
What's rof on lud?
650, 748 with Strikers or around that
Well i wipe anything at Heroic +3 faster with Lud than anything else, beside onetap rifle build
Sure playstyle and whatnot for others players, but..
Perhaps debatable against cleaners in new expansions since turrets are annoying asf, but as far the build goes, it goes brr brr to any enemy or rogue agents
Nice. I'm still stuck on elmo most of the time so neither one of us stick with "top dps" weapon choices 
My AUG also goes brr brr at max striker stacks
As local said, debatable what is the best weapon with Strikers
I'm using a lud rn but it has optimal range as its max attribute
Literally anything goes brr brr on max stacks
They all do good damage, Elmos is laser beam from all ranges with decent damage, Lud is now hitting mad stacks, AUG as for smg deals alot at close range too, so - preference
I'm new in division 2. Is the pinned spreadsheet up-to-date?
Go Strikers and go brr brr for dps
i'm trying to build for strikers since it seems to be a needed general build
Yeah for the most part. It's always being updated as changes happen
what primary should i go for if i dont wanna use the ACS for stacking?
