for all of those you can set your targeted loot
NP, a well built sniper is always welcome.
my sniper build is 4 pcs hotshot with tinkerer mask and grupo chest with headhunter talent
I got a new St.Elmo where can i reroll the 3rd attribute to DTOoC?
you can buy the reconfiguration blueprint from inaya and you can reconfigure the exotic to reroll it
What is a grupo chest?
the brand is Grupo Sombra and it's a body armor (chest piece)
I have to wait 2 days for restock? 🤦♂️
no if she doesnt have just log out and log back in and she should have it
that is the true son tactical assessment you can get them from true sons named enemies, optimization caches, or by crafting them
Is it worth crafting 'em?
yes you get 10 per craft best way to get it imo anyways
Why would you use Grupo chest and not Chainkiller or even Airaldi/Habsberg
CHD does nothing for a Sniper build
And why tinkerer? Hotshot Chest/Backpack aren't good
Tinkerer so I can have weapons with Determined and Lucky Shot as talents 😄
Hotshot backpack talent Blessed (Agents can miss a headshot before resetting the cycle) why is that not good? 🤔
Because you're using determined....you can't miss headshots
So what do i have to get ?
For a sniper build?
4pc Hotshot, Chainkiller chest (For Perfect HH) and Airaldi/Habsberg Backpack with Vigilance
White Death with determined gives the highest initial headshot
What is a "white death with determined"
White Death is a nmed Sniper rifle, that can have it's talent changed. It has the highest HSD bonus of any MMR.
how about Providence with Vigilance? or even The Gift with Perfect Vigilance? 🤔
Habsberg and Airaldi both give additional HSD, that first shot needs to be at the highest damage you can get in order to proc HH and Determined
1pc Airaldi gives 10% MMR damage, 1 pc Habsburg 13% HSD, and 1pc Providence also 13% HSD
airandi is slightly more than the gift but its pretty close like 300k or so i think
iirc, you use Airaldi because your HSd is already high enough, more MMR damage is more valuable since you'll overstack HSD for diminished returns at that point
Would fenris or a grupo pair better with the coyote mask
But isn’t the point of running the mask to increase your chc so you can put your chest piece into something else?
No, the point of running the mask is that you can stop at 50-55% CHC.
The mask will give you CHD in most situations
The majority of fighting in this game is done at ranges of between 10-20m. So the 10% from the middle buff is the most valuable, you still need your CHC to be above 50% so that if enemies get too close you aren't missing the big CHD buff through lack of CHC
Ah okay that is a very good point. Thank you.
I use catharsis, streamline weapon, adrenaline rush, gunner spec.. and hunters fury, striker, umbra .build.....:)
uh...what
4 pices umbra - chest, gloves, holster, kneepads... :). Backpack adrenaline rush, catharsis mask, gunner spec, 2 streamline weapons
Where does the Striker+Hunters Fury come in?
you mean it can come with different talent? because it doesn't seem it can be recalibrated 🤔
Second build striker chest... so on, third build hunters fury
@amber crater Yeah you can change the Talent of the White Death.
the White Death's "named thing" is the bonus headshot damage (HSD.)
White Death talent can be recalibrated
oh my bad, didn't have enough resources 🤦♂️
I have made a belstone, 2 golan, 1 emper.. guard kneepads , with catharsis, mask, sokolov adrenaline rush, gunner spec, streamline weapons, 82 regen, 🙂 and i made on with gila mask, and momento, no streamline , i dont remember i think it was chatterbox, perfect killer smg.
why grupo? Better to just go providence/habs or just chainkiller. You're not benefitting from the chd from grupo at all in a sniper headshot build
Soon i ll be done with this
for now 😹
Just you wait until firewall and tech
or until they decide out of the blue a 7th Specialization with even more absurd objectives
Tech is easy lol
I would rather they do a specialist rework entirely like they promised us years ago
But also this. Specialists each have a single node worth using.
Outside of that they're interchangeable with no real benefit/downside to each
i was looking forward to it too
I'll be honest, I was lazy and I bought the year one pass
testing mode. it synergizes well. just not sure yet
Go blue cores and youre 👌
orbit bums eb crit to 177, or 167 if not Perfect
nu this is a skill issue set. its designed to introduce diffculty with high reward
That's what glass Cannon is for
pass. glass cannon makes me fall asleep. people say x mashers like gow are boring, but gc or dark soulsd gameplay is just roll, or hug wall till opening, hit and resume
reverse gameplay
but... I do have one. its backfire, 5 blue core, 4 pfe and survalist. striker chest/memento, unbrand holster
I only usei t for carrying
saw an agent slapping with this build
looks good
More or less the meta OD build.
Rpk seem like a weird choice to me but it works I know.
Is it is action with imo better / simpler talents/lmg to run.
all the pieces have 10% is this a bug?
:/
It was a bit too good in PvP. It's not really useful in PvE
They nerfed it down but buffed Yaahl 2 PC bonus
They should've just buffed it to 15% for Yaahl
Got this exotic is it any good?
Yes if used right.
You already proved that you can't use GC
and that is a horrible build
I literaly used it in solo lego
your such a meme
go copy paste more builds from speddrunner spreadsheets
You were asked to use full red GC in the first three areas of TB lego. You posted the first area and almost died several times.
I really want to be mean.. but I remembered Im a grown up. go ping other people
You don't need to be mean, not lying would be a piece of character growth.
I never lie lol
It's funny I saw him mention speedrunners spreadsheets. They don't even have spreadsheets.
They try most of there testing just trying it out.
let me "clarify" "speedrunner builds outlined on build site or lists"
why taking shots at speedrunners they are chill ppl
Im taking shots at dorky. theres a difference.
Both major speedrun clans don't have a list. If you ask they show a build... Theu many not explaining as well as others but...
speedrunners are chill. while I have said their build trivialize normal gameplay, never had an issue with it
my own "meta" elmo carry for lego has overdogs, 4 piece striker and... uh I think FP I cant remember
☝️
good morning everyone
^ this is the reset, let's all reset
agreed pppllllssss
I hope you remember I have you on ignore. You're always are repeating yourself to a degree and it just looks spam to me now so ignored you so I don't see most of it anymore. I'll still click to look sometimes.
k
it would bother me, except... I aksed you why I didnt understand vector diff, and you repeated yourself like 7 times instead of asking questions. then reflex noticed and it was made clear instantly
this would just repeat in the future
but it's night
it was alright
"it was all night" aha
Half 9 in the morning here so technically
What gear set is more likely to have hazard protection rolled on it or is it random
Attribute rolls are biased towards the colour of the core, but there's not a higher chance for any specific one
@hexed steppe -_- sooooo after my subconcience adapted to EB, you were right. it is easier. its has a dumb kick but only past like 30 ish meters. Im still gonna goof with it, but yyy you were right
@foggy imp blue cores have a higher affinity for blue rng attributes. same for red/red att and yellow. you cant "fix" it, the rng, but yyy. and only a "higher" chance
Is there any meaningful difference between Lexington and Police M4?
something like 5% damage
What’s the skill that people use that scans the enemy red and seems like it makes you deal more damage to them
achilles pulse marks one body part to take headshot damage
achilles pulse
Can't tinker some of the gear items due to low expertise and other factors. It's a DPS build and as soon as I can adjust the Striker armor set I'll make it full reds. The SMG is a critical build, ran grenadier for the laser attachment. Swapped Coyote mask for the gloves, acquired a full blue body armor with regen and other survivability stats to offset the DPS and improve survivability, with the perk of instant 95% armor regen every 60 seconds upon armor depletion. Decoy for distraction, shield for minor damage reduction.
How do you get that?
equip the sharpshooter specialization
Want some wise advice? Don't waste your materials on applying Expertise to gear. You can put Proficiency in a secondary projects list, yes, but don't waste your mats on Expertise yet.
Faye manhunt mission on camp white oak
Oh you can’t equip it like henkz said with the sharpshooter?
it's nor part of the sharpshooter spec
its manhunt
sharpshooter spec gives a drone that constantly pulses
Do you have to do it on master or any difficulty
difficulty on that one doesn't matter
oh snap i forgot mb
@jade sphinx full 30 expertise on 6 piece (30 is max expertise) gives you a whopping 1 blue core, about 170k armor points. it costs about 90 exo per piece. only do this if the set is perma and your so far in youv already done your weapons
Sweet thank you. Someone was using it earlier and I was hitting for over 3 mill with overdog gloves
Yeah, I'm learning more on how to tinker my gear and stuff and had thousands of resources just sitting idle. Appreciate the forewarning of wasting them on it early, I'll stop here at level 2 as the resource demand is already in the hundreds.
I shared a build in here and got screamed at for it lol, I realized that I was not building smart but finally found a good spot for my playstyle so there's good improvements taking place.
if you were doing 3m it was prob overcharge pulse. it has the same effect as div 1, multpling your crit by 50%
achilles would be more like, 50m and its only 1 bullet, on the mark
Do you get that off the same mission
over charge pulse is done by having a talent that takes your skill teir 6, and pushes it to overcharge
btsu, kelso medic backpack, future perfect are exampls of these
once in overcharge, identified by a battery symbol sideways on your buffs with a lightning bolt in it, youll gain overcharge, gaining unusable bonuss to all skills for a limited time. overcharge has a global cd, meaning it cant be spammed by you or anyone with you
striker chest is now ded to me
Is the damage from this build enough tho?
Memento gets worse the better your team is
^
good piece for solo
You have a clipn or a Pic of it?
in case you dont use memento a lot, its power and benefit is solely based on 3 things. you get the last dmg, you pick up the token loot, and you never go fully down, as in flat. there are a few ways to get the last dmg but in general its not easy to do if everyone is doing their thing. youll at best get 30% by the end
Hold the phone it says on every skill what the overcharge effect is
It's either 15% or 20% amp damage to pulsed enemies
Though it double dips or even triples if you use flatline or flatline with spotter
Is ongoing good solo?
wtf, I coulda sworn. oof
good enough for legendary?
you need a status to get it going. I would use either banshe or just emp. I perfer emp as it works dogs and tanks, and bleed doesnt
also, weapons like scorpio and bluescreen are likely very complimentarily
Yes.
If you can't spare a skill slot using iron lung to burn and mark then hotswapping to your main has you getting the cycle going easily
It's mid in leggo.
this isnt my expertise, averagereflex, averageplayer and mrchow are better for this
lmao on queue!
This is what Meta OD build does in solo.
Why MG5?
I have another with mk46
still, im curious why. tbf what u use doesnt matter on heroic
a better question would be why bunny ears
Cuz It's good. The reload speed is good.
cause its extremely manly
not complaining, it made it better tbh. meta glamour for views
don't talk to me or my dad ever again
and chow is the man
I mean this is my alt toon I don't use much.
this pic is fantastic LOL
would u say heartbreaker is better in leggos? compared to OD?
he has a clip of it doing kinda well i think
Eh. OD is buffing your team too.
Ya.... That's totally something else.
though the whole gimmick of pulsing and the fact you can't stack from minitanks is a nerf
heartbreaker doesnt stack on tanks. lot of minitanks in lego. also the consistent range is kinda bad for hb pulse. but its viable
I need to make full guide since the playstyle needed for it is rough.
personally i like the bonus armor aspect of Heartbreaker, and the fact that its very fast to max to 50 stacks on this build: and i love memento
while hb doesnt stack on tanks a pulsed tank with eat hb dmg. it just wont climb, instead itll decay. so gotta shoot them after full stack and hope to global (kill fast) them
No I don’t. I just saw my damage numbers sky rocket for a few seconds and I was like what the heck
Being more effective yes HB can. But it requires very different playstyle and understanding of how dmg is coming in.
Where were you?
Sooo dont focus on tanks mostly so u keep the stacks maxed?
Heroic countdown
@subtle bluff This build is also wonderful cause it allows me to use intimidate
I liked to say I'm a HB main but I've retired the HB build.
not focusing on tanks is a bad idea. they are deadly in lego. you want a full stack, then swap and kill one
wym swap?
means change target when your ready
There are global buffs and group buffs.
ah yea ofc
-_- @subtle bluff he said it went up for a short burst
I wish they added more weapon damage gear sets that kinda spice the "stacks formula" up a bit and arent just spam shoot to get max. I like when u have to think about how you are supposed to get the benefits of the gear set.
Tipping scales doesnt seem very exciting to me, ive read it and im like eh..... just hold LMB
@foggy imp because you were in an 8 man it could have been a lot of things tho. OD, the set I showed can buff you with special bullets, scorpio can buff 20%, strega can, FI can, theres far too many variables
Could be the setup, OD, if seasonal buffs are there. Soo much the end story it's not just the build.
Yeah idk but it was happening randomly and I was just wiping out the rooms
This is how I think HB is pushing limits.
yeah man! HB is built different!
i actually havent conciously thought about how i get stacks any more than "spam rock n roll to that guy and i get stacks"
any tips lol?
the "random sphere" dmg numbers is deeply offensive. Ima need the motion sickness setting
not sure if its just me but stacking hb using anything other than acs is an absolute slog
smg is fine, but mostly yyyy
yeah why tf is that? idunno why its so hard compared to striker
striker has rof buff in the set bonus
Not using RnR. I use a ACS12 with brazen.
potato potada, man. but got any tips?
RPM buff and pulsing is its own thing.
you can also offset the rof with gunner, but most ppl use techinian laser on hb, which means they dont get it
you need the target pulsed, so you either aim to the head, use the special laser or use pulse skill
and there is the skill proxies doesnt count
u think the RPM holster in PTS is gonna be a good item for HB builds?
No I’m serious it’s allows you to kill your target too and I use it for targets like tanks and hound to dps down.
you can pusle them and use the stack, it just wont grow on them
it can be the budget 3pc striker we need in hb to better stack
In my understanding HB is borderline unusable without technician. Is that notion wrong?
No idea yet.
^^^ this too
huh that so. well thx for the suggestion!
unusable is an very extreme stance
some things like warhounds don't have heads though
youll face difficulty with some factions
not exactl;y. so 2 things.
- pulse (the normal one) +full meneto at experise 30 is almost unlimited
- memento+brazen asc12+dtooc is honestly enough dmg to clown a dog or tank
interesting
So my playstyle/mind set for HB is max your stack first then I’m just maintaining them afterwards.
wym expertise 30
oh pulse expertise
expertise on skill increase a bonus unique to the skill. on pulse, it increases the duration. with the skill effeicncy of memento, 1 yellow core and 30% duration. your pulse lasts almost as long as the cd
IMO scanner pulse isn’t worth it
there is the nightwatcher mask which is usually a not intereting pick but works with this set by a miracle
and the technician does naturally fit
? elaborate lmao
so unless for some reason you really want ot use other specialization, tech is a good choice not just for laser but also because free skill tier to pulse skills
named mask with 100% scanner pulse cooldown
also worth noting is a pulse is one time. so if the dogs or tanks spawn after you use it, you on empty for it
oh snap yeah true
Tech works great so you can go tech tank
If you didn’t notice my clip I am take a lot of shots!
why not switch coyotes to HB mask and use overdogs?
This is just template and a old guide
^ imo heartbreaker works best as a bruiser type red/blue hybrid
If you're gonna go all red just run striker
@worn imp which brings us back to this. gunner will provide +5% rof fire on kill, but lose laser. imo its worth it, cuz I use exotics on bh
mixing blues and red cores is heresy dude.
just have this guy with you in a team lmao
It's heartbreaker's whole gimmick
Wallhacks build
strong disagree. the gimmick is all red bro
@worn imp
Eh.. I had one or 2 reds
How I played it was very different
lol im just joshing, anyone plays however they like
By all means I was a “support” tank
this is what I use to carry heroic cd, cuz I never kick for shd or gear. it can solo the objective, tho I have yet to try to fully complete it. Im a bit lazy
Wheres the pulse coming from?
well heartbreaker comes with blue cores
I was able to DPS and finish off low guys and since I could DPS I could hold some agro.
so that should point out that mixing actually works with the set
unfortunately lol
its not. I use brazen dtooc asc12 and memento to put down the old yellers
the only blue cores that are acceptable are the ones on my memento 
Headshots it seems, which are extremely unreliable
wtf i thought heartbreaker needed pulse source
you can play however you like, but coming from someone who tried for 2 years to make hbr viable, red hb isnt worth imo
Even if you have great aim there's a lot of targets that don't have heads
bruhh
How I look at it for building to full agreed but to just maintain stacks it works fine.
-_-
i read ur message. Im agreeing with the other guy that i think its unreliable
ok, so we are clear, you dont use pulse on dogs and tanks. you just kill them
I just need to make a Bruise HB guide.
depending defo on the situation tho tbf
Or make a video.
I run memento. I think the heals u get from memento + the bonus armor is enough.
@subtle bluff for HB: Does the ceska backpack with vigilance out-DPS memento on 30 stacks and with token pickup buff?
At a guess I would say yes
HB is quite a crit starved set and TWD is a separate multiplier from AWD
Memento is Very strong if you’re doing tech tank way
Yeah it works a lot better when you have some blues
For solo HB, would u recommend memento setup?
how much more u reckon?
Idk I haven’t picked up HB but I’d assume not bad amount.
I’d be curious running with Dark Winter how it would feel.
Is chameleon or St. Elmo the best Crit based AR dps wise?
Elmos doesn't require any stacking to deal dmg like Chameleon does
plus with Chameleon it's kinda hard to build and maintain stacks
does chameleon reach higher numbers with relative ease tho? it did get buffed not long ago
DPS wise, would Elmos do better than a Lexington with killer procced?
No
nope, Elmos talent isn't dmg based, it just gives shock ammo
i thought it stil might do better cause of the godlike attachments
it's great for its stability and mag size, nothing else
I haven't tried anything with Chameleon yet, so I can't tell
cham is exetremely strong. on par with bh
pog !
me and meme16, did a speed run of lincon right after cham was buffed. I didnt know there was a buf so I figured, ez match. but no, due to the buff we both did 5 min. but I was like 20 sec more
Killer is so strong if you can keep it up.
stronger than cham in general?
Chameleon needs a few things for it to be good.
HB Lex w/killer or Dark Winter for dps.
what might be more fair is to use cham you need to be close range. in lego this isnt likely
elmo/bh and cham are very close, but elmo beats them both cuz its consistent
but not by al ot
also cham is bad for hb. cuz you should be hsing, and cham has to shoot 3 centers for its buff to pay out
is flatline stronger than killer for HB? if im doing a gunner version with the pulse haste mask and scanner pulse?
Again it’s all about how active you keep it up. IMO
I… just don’t like gunner scanner idea.
killer uses "on kill" and has a 10 sec timer. pulse is consistent but weaker
k
if going to go gunner, try for an exo. the reason people use other guns is either lmg or laser pointer
eh lexi with killer is insane man
I actually like Cham on HF
but ill go with Chameleon i guess.
It was really fun and it freaking recks
hunters fury??? whyyy? it doesnt give AR bonus damage
I had a lot of fun using cham on a heartbreaker setup
^ @worn imp you have to empty 1 clip into legs, 2 into body and 1 into head. only hs pusle
and thats assuming you hit everythnig
Let's you be stupid tanky with very respectable damage but I was essentially locked to sharpshooter
very good point about the headshots
@worn imp this is a good tactic, the sniper drone is a good add on. but 1 note. the only time this matters is vs skill and dogs and objectives.... also if you use controller.
But why u advising i use Exo ARs if not a chameleon??
I use a bighorn, elmo is good, backfire is good, bluescreen is good
You don't have to use an exotic AR or any exotic for that matter
But as far as exotics go generally the assault rifles are pretty good
that just what I use. you should use what you like. we can only tell you how it works in effective combat
Strega, Elmo, EB, Bighorn and all
speaking of which... meehehehehe strega +od
never heard strega is good even once
Idc what anyone says. strega is bighorns lil girlfriend. she makes everyone else as strong as her man
how are they related lmao
It's great idk who told you it wasn't lmao
Especially when you rack up stacks
Hold on let me get someone post a url for the run
im sure its great but it feeeels wrong
cuz you have to be good to get use out of it. like killer strega is "on kill" effect. meaning teammates can steal it.. but if your ALL STREGA!!! but anyway, it also has nonexistent crit, which means heavy stat investment
imo its a good hs weapon.
you can replace every piece with hbr, and youd be fine.
HF Cham
using HF when it doesnt give u AR dmg bonus is heretical in my holy book of division building. I shall cling to my holy book
Someone tell this guy about HHF
Heh heh I have one of those runs too
cause its gigachad to use a shotgun 
Regulus completes it tbh the shotgun is just there for big bois
Idk if they fixed it as well but when you have any hh stacks and swap to a shotgun it instantly maxes your stacks for whatever reason
The headhunter bonus scales for the pellet damage not the total 8 pellets
It's low enough such that any weapon that has high base damage can max it out with even 1/4 of its stack on regulus for example
Ohhh right
still bloody amazing and very legendary viable
It makes it way better
@gentle lichen are u called that cause u like the mask? lol
Because it's been """""fixed""""" 5 times and you still can break it
Nothing Ever Happens™
whats been fixed 5 times? the mask?
yes in every patch after the release of it they kept saying they fixed it but again nothing ever happens
It's fixed now finally from what I've seen.
I didn’t know you can active modifier in manhunt…… making so stupidity OP AF
With the OP build, you can spread anything in manhunt kelso….
what build should i use in the solo tidal basin climax mission here on master difficulty
Any red dps
Gonna be honest this master is much harder than then last 2.
Even more solo
i mean the final area is worse
any good build involving ouro? reply to this with mention ill check it out in the morning. Thank you in advance.
was discussing NBB build in general. if you want RPM on it Ninja Bag Backpack, 3 umbra, 2 strikers and listen to your ouro scream!
smgs follow basic striker or hf, the difference being you run all crit dmg due to smgs having inatate max crit chance. 10%+ watch, 21+ attribute, 15% mod, is like 46%, I think oreo has 2 crit chance mods. but need ot check @wraith zealot
so, insert set, (striker or hf) gunner, overdogs, memento, ect. brand chest for obl or fp knees
🤔 od might be funny cuz I think it synergizes with oreo extra stuff filling
B+ BUT! i am a "hardcore-casual" so there is a TON of room for optimizing. I did a few runs today with this build based on what you mentioned and keeping with the gear themes. Have some blues in there just for survival but those can be changed out for pure CHD. I went with the Rifle+LMG with gunner and since it the high end of the tier as far as the score goes. I think this is a versatile buiild that you can adjust to anyone's playstyle. I just threw it together today and will be adjusting it as a keeper since i had a ton of fun playing it today. thanks for the suggestion!
i play this with AR/SUB and purely weapon cores. My opinion this is much better than strikers because you only build up the AR strained talent otherwise you're at maximum damage already and strikers is just playing catch up to you. again my personal opinion. as i know people will be like "Strikers blah blah blah"
Ah yes, ol reliable
I'm gonna be that guy-
High end is better for up front damage
Strikers is better after like half stacks (which won't take long... ACS12, looking at you)
You want to know how your build really work? Dual dua leg with me. Your build vs mine and see who end up better in dmg and such. I’m open to challenge anyone with HE build vs mine build
atp i'm thinking you just want a friend to play with
Do you accept my challenge?
why?
Dw abt my main, my alt can always kill those think HE are better
Yo , What’s people thought on system corruption in pvp and also as non headshot build ?
Why? You said HE in your opinion are better than stinker so I’m challenging you
system corruption was dead on arrival back when it first released. best you can do is try and be a nuisance
It’s funny when people all saying this and that and when I’m challenging, you all look the other way
what's wrong with my opinion? striker for the most part form 0 stacks is catching up on damage with the high end, but after a certain point it shines
I gave it a run in conflict a little and it kinda worked , wasn’t terrible but worked enough to get average damaged and stay alive but I wanted to get a expand idea on it before I fully commit to the pieces
can ask @strong cave about their build
Stinker 🤣
I would appreciate that thank you 🙏
I have fatty thumb 👍
funny thing is you already challenge people wtih something you probably run vs someone who doesn't run it? just for you ego to get bigger? 
Yep bc all HE are trash so don’t misleading players
Once you get enough it can truly run people down so Yhh, just the time it takes to build them stacks
But then again, just word without action proving nothing
Well if we had a set build named stinker I could see your argument. But. Idk
Strikers is objectively stronger than High End.
But that doesn't mean all high end builds are trash lol
I mean, it worked pretty well back then but most was running the In Sync shield build
For dps, all HE are trash, you’re welcome to dual dua leg with me with your HE
It's true, all high-end builds are.....wait, Determined, no I didn't mean itasdasdasdasd
why it's my opinion. at the beginning the build just does damage. only stacking mechanic built in it is the strained
Striker has to gain stacks to catch up to that damage then it over passes it at some point. wehn i don't know i've played both builds and still preferr the he over striker
Beside rifle 1 shot
FMJ would like to have a word with you.
and your kneecaps.
I've got a multitude of builds that sorta work for what it is
Yo great run on Leggo dua btw 💯👌
Ima take a page out of chows book rn he taught me well: any build will work if it has synergies.
Chow the goat 🐐
Everything is viable. Not everything is good.
Ohh! That’s you! lol
I’m agreeing with you it works both ways bud
That's mean, chow has way less hair than that.
Alrighty
😂😂 don't you mean Local?
Only because he spent alot of time in here pulling it out 🤣
It’s a metaphor I think.
Oy. 🫤
You can find all the builds in our pinned on this page.
Give me like, 5-10 mins to make the templates for you. I don't have ss's rn
Trying to get AIs to understand metaphors....
Hi, it looks like you're trying to communicate with a sophisticated speak+spell.
What is Alexa?
I’m sorry, but as an AI language model, I do not have the ability to access or analyse specific offers or websites
I'm going to go ask my alexa see if I can get her to agree to a date with Rivens
say "snitch" to unsubscribe from div2 facts.
I think we're off topic now lol
Thank god div isn't full of AI slop 🙏
I know a specific division ai wouldn’t be happy to hear that.
i'm not a big of the government
I tried Rivens..... lol
Ouro + Sys. It's a facefight monster. If you're fighting spotter builds just take a pulse res mod. Or heartbreaker. In groups I'd say run 3 reds 3 blues. You can swap to ceska and run an AR version. You could go full HSD and armor and use Belstone chest with either unbreakable or intim. I prefer unbreakable. Swap coyote to catharsis if you go the HSD/Bighorn route
You could put ridgeways as well
Tinkerer works for the build as well if you combine the right AR talents. I don't recommend this for DZ. Not even conflict unless you're playing against anti-meta builds
I haven't tried that but you'd likely be out DPS'd that close range in group fights
True unless you invest in more damage
Sys holds its own in 1v1s and occasionally 1v2's. I've done 1v4 with EB before. It's super hard tho
It sounds corny but sys quite literally is the hardest set to master. It's all about positioning and timing
It sounds OP on paper but in actual practice, it's probably the hardest set to use in any content. PvP especially due to the lack of other gear balancing
Then there is the stinker set. 4 piece stinker with momento and ceska w obliterate. Yeah.
Yup I'm the prick who solo manhunts with that in DZ. Super super fun winning 1v6's with max stacks and EB tenacity 😂
Whole server calling cheats 😂
slop will not be mentioned in these sacred grounds
not to mention the chaos of things happening as well
Ain't nobody ask for your opinion Chum Bucket 👌😂 (please know that I'm joking)
probably get reported for they become invulnerable while we fight them
The only chaos I have is first conflict queue on I get met with a Pesti build. Sus damage. Come to find out they was cheating
Stack up enough stinker stack and you get a huge damage boost what do you mean? Best set in the game atm
2.2m armor doesn't disappear after 1 shot from pesti
Alrighty, thank you very much
Pre bugged lack luster exotic knees says different
old pestilence cloud damage? 👀
building up my stinker stacks so i can stink all over the enemy
I'd really love to know if they worked in dz. I'm genuinely curious
Yeah idk I tried them they didn’t seem to bug out maybe it’s because of the different zones when you fast traveled reset the stacks
Didn’t get enough time to stay in the dz to build up neither
If you wanna go the route of momento for DZ landmark farming, run all 4 PCs as armor and crits and use Sokolov with intimidate. The bonus armor from memento counts towards the damage buffs sys gets with bonus armor
When fast traveling it would reset stacks, yes
Yess I called that build my stinker cloud stacker. Yea
Those hyenas finna be huffing farts... Wait didn't they always? The clouds are always green
finna?
Is it better to run gunner with momento or is it better to run technician for the extra skill tier on top of momento
Depends on build
more context to build would help
I’m not a PvPer, but that would be interesting to see a 1v1
I'd say Gunner for AoK, run whatever you like and context is also something you should share
context means what content are you planning on playing
specializations is more of a playstyle these days. if you like the 3 tier shield run it with technician. if you don't care go gunner route
wait, wouldn't it be great to use Firewall for Striker Shield?
Totes
it benefits from blues and skill tiers
Shields in general benefit in a lot of ways from memento
funnily enough i haven't tried a shield build with Sheriff yet, think it migth do well, but as is, think it's probably just bugged anyways
It's gonna be so great with headhunter i can already see it
I hope the sheriff never gets changed the thing is a beast.
Why use white death when you can unleash 8 pellets from narnia
nods what i saw of it liked but i'd like it more if wether you moving or standing still or in cover it'd just do that small circle
Yeah that alone needs fixing or adjusting or maybe better context in the talent description.
striker alone with that shot gun is going to be a beast
Btw double barrel seems to be the only shotgun that has that niche with the accuracy
Inb4 people complaining about round by round reload
Legendary/ master mission and heroic countdown for the higher rolled stuff. So firewall for the shield bonus ?
I mean you can try and use it, it's worth a shot
Also nice that you set them on fire with armor break
highest DPS gun in div2 still, IIRC.
Like @cerulean smelt said it’s a play style it really doesn’t make or break your build as long as you have the appropriate weapon buff.
i wouldn't doubt it Rivens
They butchered the reload speed on the primary
Less sustain by a lot
I love how that statement is both correct, and so very wrong.
It's the perfect example of why context matters for builds, and how damage doesn't exist in a vacuum.
which statement?
Heh? For which?
oh about the double barrel? 😹
Sorry I was just confused multiple things were being discussed my fault I apologize.
I mean my weapon is at 9 expertise but wouldn’t it be more about getting the trophies
expetise is just nice to have, it doesn't actually say much about your dmg
Not all the time trophy buff lasts 5 min
the 5 min trophy is the grey memento icon which is usually used for cool downs of talents and what not
Cqb memento players enjoy short term buffs too which are equally as good
-# or kill targets in invalid areas for trophies to spawn in so it can drop right on your agent :3
You didn't hear it from me though
What are you talking about? I’m also not a PvP……………
Misread dual as duel. 😜 I just do my DPS at the range, 5-7 10 second bursts. Take the median. As far as most in a group, that comes down to tactical placement and a little bit o’luck.
personally i think knowing where the spawn placements are helps a ton
Thanks for that suggestion btw. Inspired this build for me. 🫡
which? the highend build?
I’ve closed my memory for this spawn area and blindly shot when they’re out. Why memorizing and take away the fun, this is also why I don’t like solo and speedrun. Nothing is special when you memorized what to take out first and where the next spawn will be. Off topic: try wow speedrun and I’ll gladly take up for a challenge.
Range isn’t the same as field and how you performed or your playstyle anyway
Yup. My field tests are for Utility, Survivability, Synergy
Use the DPS sheet in the pinned messages to get an accurate calculation of your DPS
I know the max, I test at the range to see how my accuracy with the mouse/controller is with the recoil, and that’s a better gauge IMO than the calculated DMG output.
you're more of the feeling of a build than looking at a spreadsheet with numbers at perfection. i tend to do that myself honestly
That why I call myself a “hardcore-casual” don’t mind the theorycraft/meta but it’s always the skill issue factor that matter more with a build imo. I run heroic+ all day, but my skill on Legendary is trash. 🤷♂️
think i've effectively cheesed 3 legendary runs. Dua the easiest to cheese, the other 2 before zoo can probably semi cheese in some spectacular fashion of some sort
Alright so I got it fitted right, but should I get another Capacitor with a different 3rd attribute that helps skills more? One with DTA maybe?
It has DTA already on it....
When you cheese something and are proud of it. Adds up
He asked for a secondary weapon choice. The weapon stat show cased with dta is the cap. It says the talent at the bottom I was stupid here, but he said "dta" or "damage to armor" I blanked and thought dtooc
For the record harmony And cap effect are almost identical buffs. You might consider future perfect since you have Mario kart pistol
@strong cave look at that, i got 5 pcs!
this build inconveniences me
Rough 😭
The chest is useless. I'd decon that right away
Gloves will drop with red. Be very careful. It's a gamble
remember when sys cor is kil
Chest/Bag/Knees = blue cores
Holster/Mask/Gloves = red cores
Keep those pieces you have. I may need you for a Sys Corr DH run
👉😎👉
why do you think i looked if i had any sys corr?
We gotta make this happen 😂

That's honestly impressive for sys Corr losing a hell of a lot of attributes
there we go
dropped a disrupt resist mod for a ensnare
Good news is you'll never lose your skills 👌
So I messed with DPS sheet if anyone wants to check out to help me double check I did everything right. You use be able just use off the bad without having to make a copy now.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FaDDfFIqOgdTfceG2ByFvmgStZ6K7whC-7LdND6WXL0/edit?usp=drivesdk
99.9% pulse res...
Hmmmmm...
Somebody is too broke to afford the .1% it seems
more like too lazy to farm it 
i could be that guy running around with cooler soaking you though 😹
You can't reroll the third attribute for more? Honestly never paid attention to if that is possible or not.
@agile citrus I like Harmony because it is different ammo that will give me basically same effect.
It's too niche of a mod, you're not missing much by choosing not to have it
Also, squirt gun 
It's the same reason you can put DTTooC on LMGs..
just think i follow and squirt you, we both keep our skills 😹
There's a typo in chows message, he means you can't put DTTOC on an LMG. Already comes with it. Imagine 20% DTTOC on a gun...
Somebody will come along and take this out of context. Just you wait
or 30% with smart cover?
Oh shit the old man is here and bros got div loaded up. LOCALLLLLL
I run all my Smart Covers with DttooC
why yall squirting eachother
Join the fun my dude 👉 😎 👉
Run it with umbra 👌
I forgot you like rifles. Smol admit... That my load out on my yellow striker. I like the weapon diff too. I think my offhand is a future perfect 93r
probably should take it to dm. family friendly server and all 😂
😂😂
@cerulean smelt told you somebody would take it out of context 😂 .... Just didn't expect it to be Local 😂
😜
I do have a pistol with Future Perfect on it that I run sometimes but honestly not needed for most content
do i even want to know why L05T is investing in system corruption
You missed a hell of a lot. Long story short, the convo you missed was about sys corr. People had questions, curiosities, so I put out information for em all. Then I said I'm still trying to scrape people together for a worlds first Dark Hours System Corruption raid. It's never been done before, at least not documented. Would love to make a YT video on it
I think it would be super fun to see. We see hardcore players doing Incursion Solo on Hardcore... Why not see a dead set clear such an Iconic raid?
@agile citrus
Future perfect on harvest is such a waste
I like 93r SMG likeness but yyy it rocks
it's not rerolled yet so he can pick another talent
I think my harvest right now is pretending to be an orbit. I can't bring myself to farm enough CD's to get one.
I have so many Harvest I don't need to reroll this one
Even Orbit > Harvest.
Only use harvest actually has is for either Flatline 1 shot boss methods for raids or determined on HH builds. It's a literal pocket cannon
I just like the D50 because you can do good DMG and it is a big buffer
I'd highly suggest it bc bro will not be getting any kills to gain any skill tiers. Let alone swapping weapons cancels the talent last I recall. Unless I'm dumb and completely wrong
D50 got tanked hard. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the 686 Magnum better than D50?
Bc I know for sure D50 isn't the best anymore
Whatever the Harvest is based on
The magnum lol
Same difference
So why pick a worse gun?
I put on my Back-up boomstick
I run brazen on mine, or killer
At skill tier 6, he's using it for skill DMG heals, hell immediately overcharge
But if I'm pulling out backup boom stick, I'm cooked
Harvest has boosted DMG and HSD
I mean mine is on backup for a skill build
Harvest has a only WD buff on no HSD extra.
BTSU:
Birdies:
Acosta's:
When using a pocket overcharge, you tend to sit on it till enemy is low, swap kill, and forget their ded body fueled your success
It looks like that due how in-game stats show it
Pistols have innate HSD
How much?
The OC will carry after weapon swap, cuz gcd
i might need some Fiftysdeath Sys Corr training 😹
What like 40%
It's only my favorite set that I spent hundreds of hours researching how to get it, how it works, best use methods, and literal experience purposely maining it in PvP
how much does a rifle have?
I think, I could be wrong not in game but I think FP has a lower gcd and a shorter duration on OC
Rifle doesn't
I mean, hell, the only build I dumped expertise into the pieces WAS sys Corr. 3/3 setup with 1.6m armor is just broken
Than btsu or the others
Where are you getting 40 from?
Added maybe not percent
100% is the actual value btw
^
I know Pistol does more HSD
On my regulus build I have to have 1 HS, 3 mods
And when an enemy is weak The Harvest cleans it up nice for OC
Show us where you think this coming from.
But honestly I like running fast so I don't use it often
I pretty sure I know what is it you just over look things.
I'm mad cuz I want hh 1886 for my hardcore, but to buff 60% I need like 7 investment. And I don't want to. So am going legmos, explosive reduction, HS, hh talent, determined sr-1, gunner, 4 striker all hazpro and backfire with pfe
HC will be challenging only so it'll be fine. The DMG counters were already tested
Getting in position for dropping my turret and then getting out safely on Refactor is more beneficial than an over charge on a 90 second cooldown
Sport Mode allows that easier
ramble ramble
is this allowed in the raid
@subtle bluff he didn't really say anything too wrong, just weird semantics. Pistols in general have above average HS. Prob close to 40% over rifle, (60%) or ar (50%?)
I mean... Sure.. but we need all the DPS we can get 😂
capacitor is right there and like 2 yellows
I just realized... How the hell are we gonna do Drone Jamming at razorback 💀
"allowed" is questionable, morbid curiosity prob closer
Everybody could run EMP pulse at the razorback I guess 😂
rotate it between the guys in the circle
I've got more planning with this idea of mine than I initially thought 💀
Might be a smart move to sit down one day and get a plan in mind before organizing goons to try this 😂
Otherwise it'll be dark hours but we kiss the airport concrete
the harder thing is getting people who are willing to farm it
Or even have it
@strong cave decent dps?
Damn good crit, can't even lie
dropped the haz pro and went chance on gears and ceska chest
I'd argue just take an AKM with strained. We need all the damage we can get
Burst DPS weapons might not help us out much
first sight work? 😹
Could be wrong. Everything about this is so unknown
hit me up when you get people going
It'll have to be on PC :(
i'll be there in the channel for moral support
😂
I might be able to craft red kneepads and go full red. That's assuming I drop the backpack. I can abuse the kits for the weapon damage boosts. Not sure tho. I'll likely just take Vigi
Wonder how Overdogs would make that build perform on PvE
Yk what I'm gonna try that tomorrow
woo i just did a convoy in 2 minutes with that build
That's only half as efficient as striker. THERES HOPE!
i'm jealous!
What do you guys think? Good use of this Backbone?
no, use tech support there
there is no focus on wd at all, so increasing total weapon damage isnt as strong as increasing total skill damage
especially when your skill damage also relates to heals
But I get WD to 90% from skill tier and I get 35% more from kills
no, you get 45% from skilltier... but you also have no crit to mention so its all base weapon damage that youre boosting
But I have decent Drone and turret
it would be more useful if you used crit rolls. right now its a waste compared to alternatives
WD doesn't do much if you're not crit'ing a lot,
???
Skill Haste value here isn't worth much.
you lose 25-30% total skill damage not using a skill based talent
I've post my refactor in front of him a ton and didn't even look at them before.
traded for an inferior weapon talent.
I was using Combined Arms
if you hybrid with crit rolls , thats another story, the unstoppable becomes useful
Gonna make a random suffer through my Backbone build on matchmaking lol
just to see how it does on Legendary
At that point Memento is way better
they probably wont notice since theyll be carrying with a striker overdog
Kind of messed up not really funny to us.
youll be lumped in with the rookies that think hw seeker is good in legs
situation normal 
its all fun and games till a chunga just kicks the shit out of every seeker and lets their hive eat
HEY HW can be used.. If they know what there doing...
its not good tho. probably better in an organized group... randoms, nah
i dont even bother with mortar in legs , even tho im a solid mortar guy
But also I use a very off looking HW build.
Have any of you play refactor? This setup is bad and misleading. You can’t hotswap for birdie, you can’t heal without the chest and if you want dps, why not play dps instead of using support and mix? Waste time and resources
@strong cave maybe this will help with the damage?
Here's proof of running it. In no modifiers tidal with 3 strikers. RMM.
This is just proof. Of concept for the different way to run the build.
I don't think this is for experience players I think this is for newer players or players are wanting to learn how to do legendary.
No vigi hurts
Tidal know bug summary anyway
I can run one more again... Hard to find without modifiers.
Inv me I’m on
If someone joins or leave in the middle of it sure but I've never heard anything about a specific mission having it bugged.
I have to put the build together again I don't keep around. But sure I guess.
Okay, in tidal I have 200 kills but dmg go to someone else less kills than me by 100 or less. Now tell me, it’s a bug or something else?
Wow this is amazing, so many build could use this ROF
Steal killing by shooting?
lol okay
Like I said I never heard of a bug. If were different per players sure then I'd report the bug and see what's going on
So not sure about these guys builds or ability but we beat it and did alright. Though I think my Backbone Refactor build is more suited to solo as the buff time is too short for group play. Definitely maxing this backpack though for solo and using it.
So you’re saying I’m steal kill 200+ that’s fair
okay as in finishh not hardcore stealing
I am not trying call you out or anything here.
buff being one your build cant even use anyways?
Looks like one person carried 2 people and you were holding your own. So idk
now run some crit stats and see how it does. if you have enough damage with capacitor it should keep talent up, otherwise youre self nerfing for no real benefit
Yeah, the buff time was too short though for bosses. But all in all when I had max stacks I was slaying
for example, you could use vigilance and see betetr weapon damage overall.. still a waste, but less so
I mean I did a bil SD with 700 mil healing
you can do as much skill damage with nego dps. .. just imagine how much more healing and skill damage you wouldve done adding a 30% amp to it
Fine.. I'll put my refactor build back together..
i dont want to come across as jerky here, but how much weapon damage did you do? and did it justify using unstoppable
Why Empathic Resolve on third set? I thought that healing+ didn't matter on Refactor
Because it works with refactor repair.
Really
solid team buff
Yeah it is
Read the body... It's support version.
new knees be good on refactor, right?
So this would be good on Refactor?
Repair skill does nothing for refactor
dunno. It could I guess.
But the kit you posted has repair skill
oops that's should either Skill Dmg, CHC/CHD
I've been meaning to make a guide for it. This is very throw together post that I saved.
Tell people if they have the old Backbone still then that is a good solo Refactor piece
It's really not vs memento
Menento buff everything on Refactor other than directly repair
Maybe they don't have Memento yet
its bad advice if thats the way its presented
ideally you would refactor: skill talent > memento (hybrid) > weapontalent (hybrid)
I saw peaks of around 600k per shot at max stacks
thats only if crit stats and understanding its kindof a loss usiung anything outside of skill talent
Like I said though the buff is too short
thats not good, especially since everyone else out damages you if considering weapons dps only.
with modifiers?
If it was like 30 seconds I think it would be better, and you have to remember I got a turret doing 250k and a drone doing about 200k
You need to mention with or without modifiers when running a showing off a result
i think thats where i see a problem with this. youre using the skilldamage to justify using the unstoppable bag even though it hurt your performance overall. you probably would have topped damage with a proper skill talent
why not just use vigilance if you are hard set on buffing weapon damage?
Maybe maybe not. The biggest thing with Refactor is skill placement and depending on group members that is a fluid conclusion
I don't have a ST backpack with Vigilance, because why would you lol
you coulda easily shifted 250 mil more damage your way with a skill talent
But I have these Backbones with ST as a native so I was like why not
like saying im gonna use a 5.11 bag because it has a blue core that i want, still a shit choice. recalibration exists for a reason... also force multiplier has native skill tier 
and force multiplier is basically like adding free perfect glass
And I have that but with the WD you get from 6 ST on Spec and 45% WD from PGC I figured why not add 35% from PUF and see what happens
im all for weird builds, but expect pushback and dont give them as good advice
Oh boneback bone is still here..
here's the question Rowdy.
Why would someone run Refactor?
I doubt many people still even have the Backbone with yellow core anyway and probably ever rarer with skill haste or skill damage on it
This set is low key really good
Are you hypocriting yourself? Idk if that's the word I should use her..
no I have a maxed one but not everyone does
Did not ask if it was good or not did I?
I run Refactor because I like SD builds and this one heals team on the DMG I do
I'm gonna keep SS if you keep making a non progressing answer
And it is not a bad SD build
-# snipping tool master: mode activated
at this point win+v
why i said master 😎
It's a fun build
yes, you heal with the skills doing damage. you shooting. no healing what so ever
Either talk about yourself or other players don't keep throwing either or to match what you think is best.
Run it with Spiced Up and you get some serious DMG out of it
Any build can be fun. Again... You were close at one point..
again, you shoot your gun you do no healing
Lost plz stop let me get a straight answer out this first
But if you are looking for FI level heals just use FI
failing to grasp the point
not exactly what you said
That one is pretty close.
if you want skill damage, run red rigger and you might do more damage than refactor
Tell you what I like most about it is I get hit and I am instantly healed when my skills are hitting things
You asked this previously. So I am asking you that
Idk why this is so hard for you to answer.
Solo?
you can run almost anything solo
☕
no 🍿 ?
What make Refactor different.
I don't care what you run at this point since you're trying to advice others.
I miss your point

Let's trying this again but with different words.
Why would someone choose to run Refactor over other builds?
They like skill builds
refactor specifically picked for a reason tho, right?
Try again. There many skill builds.
that picture i didn't have the right holster on either lol
Other than the healing factor I have no idea what you are talking about
@silent storm Every time I read your name, I think of that stuffed dog from Scrubs.
Okay carry on, y'all.
We're getting close!
How does it heal?
#td2-build-advice message 1 bill SD 700 mill healing
Skill build man’s Creed
This is my skill build. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My skill build is my best friend. It is my life.
I must master it as I must master my life.My skill build, without me, is useless. Without my skill build, I am useless. I must utilize my skill build true. I must have better skill placement than my enemy, who is trying to kill me...

It's not a hard question..
It's weird that you're being passive trying to teach something to someone that has around 2500hr more than you and a good easy 1,000 hours of it has been teaching other how to do end content.
What are you talking about dude? I just put on a Backbone with yellow core. I like my Refactor build and even said that it's probably better solo than in party
You're missing the point
Let's try this another time. I doubt it's gonna be answer but let's try it.
What makes Refactor different from every other build?
Did I emasculate you somehow?
Just can't answer a simple question is more like it.
Because you know the answer and it seem to choose not to answer it.
Because I have no idea what makes it different, I like it because I get insta heals with skills and I like yellow core builds as much as I like red core builds
The answer is always stinker build always. I use it and I’m sticking to it.
You answered it here.. but in a longer and had to use yourself in the answer..
Can you take yourself out of an answer?
What are you talking about?
The healing factor
how does it repair?
Skill DMG
There you go that's the answer!
Woah what does this even mean? Just genuine question.
Refactor repair more has it does more Skill Dmg! YAY
Challenge his manhood
idk what that has to do with a simple question.
So the answer is skill DMG?
Why ignored that and I could if nothing report that but I don't really care.
Sorry just wanted some understanding and a little transparency
god I am using snipped tool so much tonight
called it
I can tell doing a fantastic job snipping though if I do say so myself.
Nah you're totally good I am glad someone noticed because I ignore stuff like this.
I have a couple skill DMG builds but I like Refactor becsause you play it like a red build
Got your back bro. Sry continue.
I have 4 skill build in my main toon loadout
I have 6 more in my alt toon. So try again with that.
Toon, I love that, it means you are atleast as old as I am lol
It easier to offend me by going after other people.
I think chow has explained a lot I think chow needs a brain breather haha
Half but also lazy to type and can't actually spell the other word.
Did I even? I think snipped did half the work
naa only old heads use toon lol
No I can't spell Chactercter
Acutally....
I am slightly ESL, have dyslexia and have a small learning disablely. So I choose to be lazy with my typing a lot.
Anyways moving on back to builds.
Night dude
You are gifted sir no doubt. But yeah 👍
Bro just spamming random reacts
Lazy typer atm
That new acs-12 is going in my stinker build for sure putting RoF on it
what?! not sherrif?
Sherrif won’t be out for like 3+ months assuming no tempest situation
@gentle lichen trying various settings and i can't do it without Zealot 😢 😭
Omfg just remove the goddamn climax exotic gimmick
Screw zealot im gonna miss my camera 😔
I'm gonna miss setting people on fire
It is kinda stupid imo I just want to play it for the challenge
my butt clenches the chair hard everytime i lose armor using Sys Corr 😹
Locking an exotic to the end of the season makes everyone just not excited anymore for it
im gonna miss blind firing from cover with no ads
Revert the sys corr bug fix
Still salty over that
vigilence on it feels lacking to me unfortunately 🤔
You could go back to full armor in 2 procs of insta armor with that
Really op but should've been tuned instead of completely not working
was thinking the Equalizaer + Salvo for 13% Rof + AR would've increased my dps a bit
Like I get it needed a change, but like, full blown removing it AND not making it apply the buff when you do it is so genuinely awful
Pts still open right?
Don't they give you sys cor craft mats?
YUS, why i went to check salvo equalizer
YUS, buy one of the caches and get a crap ton
Also just make sys corr targetable at this point like, I don’t think people are actively looking for it and its been so neglected at least let people have a way to farm it outside of caches sometimes
13% ROF, 20% AR Damage
who knows. on PC there's at least 3 of us i think. have to ask @strong cave if they got more interested #td2-build-advice message
I really hope survivors adds a way to reliably get pvp exclusives
@rich cosmos I think you might have some Retaliation against that opinion.
I think its been long enough to the point where we should just allow stuff to be more accessible
i could totatlly see. run Survivors PVP and getting PVP loot
run PVE get PVE Loot 
Its been in the game for like what 4 years? Longer?
about 5 to 6 years i'd say
Yeah at some point ya gotta say that its just gotta get put in the game in more ways
Plus don’t caches get harder each season because of past seasons
So yeah just make pvp exclusive stuff easier to get
I can't even get it in the PTS
I don’t even care if it remains pvp exclusive but make them actually obtainable
how does div 1 do it? aside Global Events?
That was it lol
Idk I never even hit level 30 in d1
Outside of that there's no way to target any kind of loot apart from special exo drops
was going to say give us global events where we can get a few sets from them like div 1 has it set up
Tbh just shove the seasonal caches in GEs or cd store or something
AKA Golden Bullet, System Corruption Caches, Strikers, etc, etc
Hell in fact for survivors they could add a new wave of pvp exclusive loot
Like make all the exclusives MUCH easier to obtain in survivors but all the new seasonal loot is tied to pvp exclusivity, that would be a great idea
you do realize they're hiring someone to give some PVP love right?
Yes thats why Im saying it
Hopefully it's at least half as good as survival
I think we can aim a little higher than "as good as survival".

Thank you for the reminder to not go back to office jobs.
I mean good lord.
ooookay back to the build talk now, methinks
is the Tempest worth building around? The talent seems too situational...need shield to break to proc?
nods basically break shield be disoriented while half or most of the buff is active
Harvest is the meta pistol build correct?
if you go headshot damage i believe
harvest > reg?
i like it better than Reg cause i can determined it and shoot a toe for a head shot 
Yes eventually sheriff will replace all my weapons tbh.
What in human anatomy is this obscurity? Toe shots=headshots? No way haha
i can see NFG Ghostspr AKA(LT.Dan) RAAAAH. LET'S SEE HOW YOU LIKE LOSING ALL YOUR ARMOR AND YOUR HEALTH IN A COUPLE SHOTS! 😹
Determined lets any part of the body count as a headshot.
which means yes, you can blind-fire with an MMR and nail a perfect 360-no-scope.
From narnia? Yes please
so for Harvest build, Punch Drunk, Chainkiller, 3pc IA and...which BP?
rivens pvping. jumps, 360 ads MMR and gets a headshot for a conflict match win 
Riven your so accurate. How do you do it?
I trained by dodging limewire downloads.
i went the extra mile, punchdrunk, chain killer, claws out, 3 immenence
Nah it’s definitely gotta be some
Mr Miyagi stuff going on there
@verbal gust has no risk at being hit with a toe shot
aka: claws out = 8% more innate pistol damage 😹
Damn don't have IA BP.
don't have to go that route though, i just did for the damage and fun of it
I lost that ability a long time ago that’s one thing I don’t miss. Stubbing my toe.
handling > CHC for HSD builds right
it's the route i went. HSD/Handling if the gear allows it
and now they'll never be an astronaut.
or they will, since less weight on the shuttle 
Prosthetics are the key it’s getting them that’s the problem.
Bulwark Shield?
I keep offering the ones made of paddle-pops, but you never return my calls.
wait. too australian. Popsicles. There.
I made my own once out of hockey sticks didn’t really work out tho.
believe so?
@verbal gust Guess you're out of puck there.
nasa/spacex hogging all the titanium lately , huh
nasa stole my iron lung body pillow
i can only imagine how much them cannisters will smell of vomit
I lost elons contact somewhere in my last pair of pants I think.
Hah haha puck. Yeah. Haaaaa yeah
you know how many people will try to be high or drunk taking a spacex?
Okay, back to the builds now.
Idk the best thing about crutches is you can use them as weapons legally if you want. But yea builds please sorry.
Has any builds come of the pts? Strikers I imagine but what’s the gear set ? It’s gotta be related to ARs right?
It's not striker? PASS
gear set is sad really. require skills and other people doing damage for you to gain any stacks
sounds supporty
Oooooooh. I see so it’s like a give take set. Might go well with the companion mech but when it’s gone it’s going to be useless imo
Yeah the brand set with stinkers is what I’m leaning towards
OK I suck with pistol build.

and salvo holster?
Yeeeeahhhhh my sheriff go brrrrrrrrr
5% turns to 13% 🤔
sheriff might be intriguing if you pair it with visionario and eagle's grasp (> <)
so once I proc determined I can just keep hitting body shots?
not sure if we can use brand/gearset that increases it's range. would love to turn it into a literally MMR (> <)
or is it head shot, body shot, head shot etc
forever until you hit hyena or chungas with helmets on
Dude the range will be insane
which you shoot body, break their helmets. then shoot their head to reaquire HH Determined
What’s some good tech tank builds?
Uhh if you look at the pinned messages on the top theirs a spreadsheet with all kinds of builds and data
Just click the name on top
one piece would be Memento Exotic backpack
Yeah they are mostly momento builds. I have yet to see an exotic with as much utility as momento.
this april fools Momento's dropped, along with dog face, satiated, little horn forget the rest honestly. pissed people off
i found it funny honestly
Oh yeah I forgot about that. They were useless haha. Was funny though yeah.
for me it was dropping exotic components and i didn't mind that
Not at all me either. Always need those. I was rocking a Strega with ND when turmoil was a thing I missed it but now that I have them dude my clear is so much better.
i feel blacklisters is still semi broken in some spectacular way, i just can't prove it honestly
You around? I have some time to do one quickly.
Il use em now I was going to do capitol on Lego check my damage il report back
Would it be worth taking a crit chance off for a crit damage
