what's the use cases for each?
i know about HHF, which is used for legendary
i'm asking about high end
high end ik does fall off in leggo especially with teammates
Imo HHF is just better for keeping you going and safer.
I've been doing HHF in full groups.
Yeah, you know, cook 'em, mash 'em, put them in a stew>
Guys how do you get od gloves? Ive tried cd yet no drop
This is my current build copied from @hexed steppe
Make sure you get ODogs gloves if you don't have them already
Also how to get them, I'd say play retaliation for them. Target faction hyenas and eventually they'll drop the blueprint to craft them
Target loot gloves as well
I have a question how do I get the companion
T
@strong cave thanks!
Turn season modifiers on
Hello, is it still possible for me to farm the overdogs? Sorry i am a returning player.
How do I do that
Im only level 21 idk if that makes a difference
Open inventory,
Middle icon on the top row,
Activate seasonal modifier
Ok I’ll check it when I get off I appreciate the help
I do have one other question how do I obtain the global companion
There is a tutorial mission, should show up somewhere on the map
Ok
should be in east mall
@hexed steppe hey man i copied ur build except for overdogs. Whats the fstest way without retaliatio . Because i run solo and end up killed
are you able to mm for countdown? that would be the next best farm since you can pick the target loot and youll get credits to buy exotic caches. drops are rng
Aah ok appreciate it
i actually copied back a bit of your version for 3pc ua. ngl, 300 rounds on bluescreen is pretty nice
Will if offer more.dps on my lexi build + its @hexed steppe ??
what are you tyring to do in the end here with a build?
Tbh losing foxs definitely lowers burst damage. I think its more of a qol choice over raw min/max choice.
75rnd lex, or 100rnd elmo is pretty solid
if i have a lvl 30 weapon and want to change the third attribute, will i lose my expertise levels if i change the third attribute ?
Nope
Kill enemies as fsst as i can with no strikers
You would need PGC then
@hexed steppe im not that good in tbis gsmd. Say 1 got 2 elites.whats gonna kill them faster 3 or thr foxs?
@subtle bluff whats that?
Again im only shd 2k and not that knowledgeable
Thanks all
but really OD build would do it a bit easier for you
At first you can have builds that wil but in the end Striker will win.
Should worry less about the small things about the build and learn the gameplay more. There is a point where someone build will be out done by another players skill level.
À@subtle bluff for 5o tkmes i ask i hate striker and u reply the same answer use striker lol
I did not say that.. If you can't take your time to explain yourself better. At least take the time to read.
Idk why you want to hate strikers. You want to be "off meta"?
OD build like I mention beforehand.
For what reason don't you want to use Strikers. Just curious
Although from your description. KIlling enemies as fast as possible without Strikers. You're looking for Negotiators Dilemma.
Everyone when asked to do more than striker and explained there really isn't in some senses always thinks we're telling them to use strikers...
Shd level does not determine knowledge, experience or skill.
so we just assuming or seeing what we want to see?
if striker is the easiest way to accomplish what you want, we are going to recommend it, choose not to use it at your own peril
@subtle bluff bro we havd like 50 builds anyone can play anystyle he wants. Besides besides im herd tk het info from vets like @hexed steppe. I appreciate u trying to help regardless
Lmao....Chow isn't one of the guys that LD gets their information from now 🤣🤣
Again never pointed you to say play strikers....
Regardless I have posted and shown multiple other builds other than strikers
@meager fog i asked a soecific q days ago.what non striker build is besy. This forum is build advice
I have yet to state an opinion about builds, just facts.
All u guys repeat is use strikers img
I just gave you one......
Thanks
And Chow gave you a different one....
What are 2 builds have I have posted to here for to you are?
I could be lil offensive with this comment but are you blinded by strikers?
There are reasons for that.
- Strikers is the easiest to farm for.
2)its the most versatile
- its capable of all content.
Those three things mean its the first complete build new or struggling players are recommended to farm.
It makes farming other builds ALOT easier.
@meager fog do u guys understsnd anything im saying. I keep asking whats th best in terms of ttk that js not sttikers and u guys give me an elaborate esssy highlighting the benefits of a build I never asked for
I do appreciate ur advice though and thanks
You're uneccessarily aggressive.
I'm sorry what?
Omg bro u cant handle a nkrmal converstion come on bro were adults
I send the build you're looking for...
coming from the person that can't slow down to type words properly...
Thanks @subtle bluff fkr the build
As you keep telling me...Chill 🙂
The same build I posted beforehand...
@meager fog i never said chill lol
I'm telling him to chill, hence why I tagged him.
@subtle bluff thanks my man. Is it better than @hexed steppe s 2 grupo , od gloves, ewualizier and salvo?
YES...
I mean 1 grupo 2 ceska*
The lot of us need to step away from this conversation.
You asked for something, you got several answers that gave you what you need.
Ok let thefarming commence
@meager fog ok bro relax ur not the president of this discord werre just talking
Oh that's suppose to be a salvo
This is the highest DPS TTK build without having anything Proc'd.
But once things proc and try going on it will falll behind.
Ok im definetly fafmjng jt now
Just a reminder, a friendly one, that you don't need to @ everyone you're talking to much less on mobile where you can swipe left on a message to reply to it. Tagging Localdeck or others that much will only get them annoyed. Again, it's a friendly reminder.
Where do i get the gift dz exckusivr?
Named Caches
Named caches
You don't need The Gift it's just there.
Thanks
Any Providence backpack with Vigilance will do
Perfect Vigi just gives a slightly better bonus
last week's cd vendor had a... nvm it was Weapon Handling and another yellow attribute
barely noticeable lol
Got it apologies if im new and stupid i really apprecaite ur input.
Depends on the situations, when a game is as math heavy as this 1% makes a huge difference when multplying by hundreds of thousands
it changes the cooldown from 4s to 3s is all it does really. finding a habsburg bag with vigi and hsd/handling is a nightmare
hi all, I currently am running 3 pc striker with ninja BP, and equalizer+salvo.
I want to change it up so I am not focused on just AR damage,, but overall weapon damage.
Should I stick with strikers and make it 4pc with BP, either keep equalizer or switch to another chest piece with obliterate, and throw in Overdogs? Should I switch it up entirely?
Remove Ninjabike, it's nerfing your build.
Equaliser is currently best in slot, with overdogs gloves and 4pc strikers
If you want the best outright damage, and have good ability to Headshot. Perfect Glass Cannon will give the most damage in the chest slot.
If not, you can use Ceska Glass Cannon, which will give higher DPS than Equaliser
any good skill builds?
ty for advice, I am SHD lvl 10k and never touched another set that wasn't strikers, so this gives me another way to have fun with the build
for what content?
strikers can be played may of ways
There are alot of fun DPS builds.
Negotiators Dilemma requires a little more brain power than Strikers. But gives the highest DPS potential of any build.
im all round user not pvp
There are good skill builds in the pins here, take a look at the spreadsheet.
EP buirn is the most versatile, but most skill builds aren't great for solo play. They really shine in groups.
would overdogs and same chest pieces be best?
Ok so PvE. I need more context of what you're trying to use it for.
Overdogs works exceptionally well with Negotiators Dilemma.
You can ignore the tier requirements for the damage amp by marking the higher tier and shooting the lowest.
With Nego, hitting 60% CHC is a must, because your damage transfer relies on critical hits (transferring 112% critical hit damage damage to up to 2 other marked targets)
Nego also seems to get rid of the shotgun requirement of strikers to build stacks right
Theres no building stacks with Nego, simply shoot multiple targets. Anyone marked takes damage.
Like this
OOOH and I thought the splash damage was on kill, but it's on hit to other marked enemies wow
or this in the Rogue agents one you can see the agent i'm not shooting taking more damage than the one I am shooting at.
missions, bounties, open world, countdown, legendary
okay I am def going to rework my strikers build then, and maybe give Nego a try. Thank you!
That BLuescreen Nego build is entirely courtesy of @subtle bluff btw. 🙏 🙇♂️
you also don't need shotgun to build stacks on striker if you're not using chest either
if not running chest just go brrrr
chest fell off really bad for legendaries now
I mean… 😐
point and laugh
I’ve used it depending on the room…
pgc or bust sir
I'm guessing new builds and new strategies
GR9 makes it easier..
nah it's just pgc, we just got better
the average player doesn't get better
he gets broken
yay I can go back to bluescreen and really any other weapon I want now, thanks all
So a skills build is gonna have its limits. It won’t do some of those well.
Bluescreen Nego is the dogs balls.
@iron plover balls
hmm my dog doesn't have his balls anymore sadly
but he still gets down with his toy hehe
But I’m not using Shield on HHF anymore.. I’m moved from decent to semi avg…
soon, you will get into the Zen™ of melee baiting 5 NPCs in 1 second
Is there a link to the full build? What attribute for the Blue Screen? Damage to Armor or critical hit chance?
CHC on the bluescreen
4pc Negotiators dilemma, Overdogs gloves and Ceska Obliterate or Glasscannon chest.
You need to hit 60% CHC. After that, everything into CHD.
Users choice on weapon damage or armor for cores?
Weapon Damage on all of them
As a perfect build you'll be using Ceska GC. Using blue cores with GC is despicable 😉
Definitely glass and wd cores for nego. Big draw for nego is no stacking and glass fits that better.
You cant ignore tier requirements for overdogs amp. You mark the high tiers then hit the tier 3 so the amp will apply to every mark. You cant ignore tiers without losing overdogs buff
That's what I said 😛
Make sure to keep that in mind when explaining the interaction. Nego and associated buffs are conditioned on the target, not the mark.
This includes dttooc, dta as well
I know you're very protective of your Nego, I don't want to misinterpret it 😉
One thing I did also forget to mention.
Negotiators Dilemma can ignore target immunity.
If a boss is immune to damage, you can mark it and shoot something else and the Boss will still take damage from the transfer.
Courtesy of @onyx sage you can also use the weakpoints of dead enemies, to transfer the damage while being completely hidden
As long as the weakpoints were in tact when they died
plates
Does it not work with weakspots also?
weakpoints will blow up even if they're dead
which is a great way to troll teammates
or in dien's case, troll yourself 
weakpoints do have hp and do work for this also, they just have a lot less hp
anything besides chunga plates that's tanky?
helmets
i mean for most enemies they just have a lot less hp compared to chunga plates
it shouldn't matter if they're dead or not
i was just wondering about chunga helmet vs plate. was curious about that last week and forgot to ask.
chunga helmet or body/leg plates have the same hp
ah ok ty
what does matter tho is you should always be killing chungas by shooting their chest
Since the backpack allows you to shoot THROUGH and hit the HP directly, wouldn't that also allow you to shoot the chest plate through the backpack when it's dead?
not really, it's just that if you shoot other enemies and they spread damage to chunga for example, the spread damage always hit the chest, so if you plan on using the dead chunga plates later to do the spread trick, the chest plate is the most damaged one
such brain
i pay attention to small things, it's my trademark
that's what... nevermind nevermind
lmao
Would dead chunga plates be considered lowest tier for overdogs? Asking for a friend 
When used for transfer*
Now I get why people said expertise slows down after 10-15ish 😂 half of the wpns are named and exotics LOL
With that, how do I get fox’s knees 😂 TL knee pads or?
make a build and wear them
yup, fox's aren't that rare
not tested yet but i don't think so, you can test by shooting them with chat window damage numbers turned on
you should've been with me last night, I was looking for a weapon Handling/hsd vigi zwiadowka bag and gave away three near god rolled fox's
I’ve been running nego and TS as of the past 2 days. Experimenting with bluescreen + nego and iron lung + TS
😭 I was seeing how quickly I could level up expertise so I was grilling CD and TL LOOOL I felt bored. But I’m gonna do knees TL
you can get proficiency wearing the items as well
if you want fox's do overlord over piece. the overlord only goes through 6 pieces
I know but it feels slower that way somehow? Idk why
What do you mean? Only goes through 6 pieces?
mask, backpack, chest, gloves, holster, knees = 6 pieces
now if you looked at the number of gearsets, brandset and exotics you'd see there's a huge difference between going by specific slot piece vs brandset
Interesting you mention that because I was questioning how to clear proficiency the quickest and was looking through the gear brands vs set piece (if that makes sense)
going by knees you'll be going though a lot more stuff before you get your fox's prayers
So go gear piece instead? That’s what I was also trying to figure out with overdogs. I had knees TL
What’s fox’s knees under btw? Which set piece?
Ok what’s the best headshot build, what rolls on the pieces and what talents lol
Rifle or automatic? Think the ones who know best here will rec hotshot with HSD and DTTOOC
overlord or something? looks like a sword on fire
Probably rifle
wonder if mrchow is available? 🤔
Then it’d be hotshot with determined on both weapons and HSD + DTTOOC if I had to guess? That’s what I was told and I like sniping lol
I’ll have to check it out then. It’s not a necessity, just some layouts rec fox’s knees and for some reason, I’ve only came across it once and disposed of it 😭😭
poor luck i'd say
It’s not, it’s because I was gunning for overdogs and literally said F this, I’ll never need it 😂😭 so I deserved it LOOL
What is hsd and dttooc lol
Headshot damage and damage to target out of cover
Oh ok, I’ll set my world to those pieces of gear and hopefully get good roles
But what rifle is is best?
i use the 1886, there might be others that's good
For sure. But I’m sure dorky and/or chow would have much better input 😅 that’s what I was recommended to do as I have a hotshot setup for it
think the pins in the upper right hand corner has the build bubble_pumpking is talking about under a spreadsheet
What rifle?
^^
That depends on your play style. I like the 1886 too, but I’m on the m700c with a LMG as a backup (don’t use that as secondary, it’s literally just a secondary placement holder as I never touch it). Depends on how much recoil and your preference of RoF and reload speed.
(I did forget why I leaned off the 1886 to go with the m700c, otherwise I’d still be using it). My only issue with the m700 is I’m not consistent with headshots with the c79 scope since it’s 3rd person pov when ADS’d
M700 is a marksmanrifle though?
Like I have another scope for the m249 and I am far more accurate toggled scoped in than in 3rd person 😂😂😂
Yeah mmr
classic M1A used to be the only rifle to use long time ago. namely the baker's Dozen
I think I tried it… Didn’t like how it shot
Do any ARs have mag sizes that come close to LMGs with the gunner mag size? I wanna try the police AR but I’m afraid I’d run out of ammo before I get the kill 😂 (which AR is it btw? I remember it being the mk17 or m4?)
Elmos is worth a look if you're looking for mag size without having to build for it.
just a quick question ! For what are incoming repairs ? what does it do ? Gear Mod ! Does it repair the Armor or Health or my Drone ?
I tried Elmo’s. Mag size was still too small. Was doing a 1v5 when I first got it and damn near got killed. Idk if it’s just not the right fit for my play style or I just don’t know how to use it
It increases incoming heals to your agents armor from skills. It doesn't apply to armor on kill, but it will affect things like the repair drone, reinforcer chem launcher or heal hive.
ok thanks
I think the root problem is OD f’d me with the ‘unlimited’ hp ammo. If I could run Elmo’s with OD, it’d be fun but apparently wpn talent doesn’t mesh well with set talent?
The other workaround is I’d use EB but idk how to use the talent correctly. I’d die once the damage taken kicks in
I think special ammo gets replaced by the new one
yeah, i just checked the guide; " shock rounds from the St. Elmo will override the bleed ammo from OD"
i have a PGC with HSD, CHC, and explosive resistance. what should explosive resistance be replaced by?
that mod is only for the LMG
think someone did a 3 Unit Alloy and 3 Arcabuz de brazos piece with Elmo with 140 mag size
not heal trap? 🤔
three attributes? if it's chc then chd
yeah i need 100+ if im not doing a 1v1 😅
i'd think that's the case but PGC is HSD as a solo piece so i was hesitant
IIRC if you can hit 20%+ headshots it's worth using pgc
oh O.o
Hunters fury is really inconsistent, man.... even when im up in the enemies' face and getting the proximity damage amp, the fact that I lose all the all my Apex predator amp stacks just because I dont kill someone within 10 seconds really blows.... Wouldve really liked the stacks to disappear one by one every 10 seconds like Tipping scales instead of this inconsistent shite
#division2buildventing
this should be a channel for people like me lol
@onyx sage @cerulean smelt Do I just need to adapt better or something or is this really just the case. I feel like, the more people u have in your group, the worse hunters fury becomes. If someone steals your kill you run the risk of losing all your apex predator stacks
the more people u have in your group, the worse hunters fury becomes
yes that's true for the exact reason you said and also because of group scaling
could it be an actual strat to run hunters fury chest and high end backpack instead? xDD
no it's even worse because you have even less burst damage to get the ball rolling
the solution is more burst damage, not less
but suppose the ball is already a'rollin?
if the ball is already rolling then keeping it up should not be a problem
HF only has issues with starting to roll the ball, not keeping it rolling
agree but with the exception of apex predator stacks bro...
yes i know that's why i'm confused, you say you agree but you disagree
That's why if I run HF I only run it like this (excluding HHF of course)
those stacks are even stronger than the initial 20%
agree to everything about it being an easily rollable ball except for that those stacks disappear after 10 seconds, all of them, thats bad
well that's by design
with hf you need to kill fast and it really helps to know the spawns so you can push them early
don't use it if you know the fight makes you take longer than 10 seconds after each kill
or use it if you don't need the buff that much and can restart quickly, in the case of HHF
compared to striker? absolutely
i hate hf with smgs
shotguns are cool b/c they stagger a lot
with smg you eventually just get beamed
i haven't used hf with smg for years now
there's just not much point when HHF exists
HF at max stacks just gives around 1.6 or less, when striker without chest or backpack is already 1.65
Crit Shottie builds are still a thing dammit! 😡
what they change even? didnt play then
was it overperforming?
imagine nerfing that but not touching headhunter determined
they shouldn't nerf hh, they should touch determined
hh skill ceiling was perfect, determined ruined it
but i won't say no one should play it, as long as it's in the game it's fair game
Do ARs or LMGs have more stagger than SMGs? or is stagger purely damage based when it comes to guns
I will say it. Determined undermines and discards the combat design of the game
it's mostly damage based but there is a hidden stagger attribute iirc. in div1 shotguns literally say they have stagger +X%
one thing i've always wondered if it was a damage-over-time thing or %-of-health thing
yea it feels that way b/c shotgun pellets very reliably stagger
whereas even high burst smgs dont as much
depends on enemy veterancy as well
How does high burst smgs stagger compare to that of high burst lmg/ar?
idk it feels the same to me
oh wait no, i might have misunderstood
so if you take something like the common add and use something like smg-9, they will stagger, but if you take a very tanky boss like DUA boss, he won't stagger cuz there's not enough dps
but if you take something like brazen shotgun or frenzy lmg and burst him, he will stagger
so DPS being high enough in relation to %hp definitely affects it
or just max hh shotgun and if he doesn't die in that first shot, you will notice that he does stagger
Can someone try my build
Um.. Try?
There’s a lot of questionable things in here.
For what reason?
which chest piece offers the highest dps for ts if im switching into the lmg from quickstep? i have a PD with PGC, Ceska with GC, and Equalizer
im reading the guide but says TS chest offers highest dmg but hard to maintain since fire time based
PGC always > P. Obli > Ceska GC
so even if it's not a ceska or grupo, as long as there's PGC?
PGC can only be Providence anyway. Grupo wouldn't really offer much with how much CHD TS gives
The sheet basically states what MrChow said
PGC always.
Here’s the other things for TS you’re build up to 350% CHD (iirc) with TS and BP so you have a lot of it and stack more yes will give more dmg but not as much as other stats like RoF in this case.
what's BP?
Backpack

and it makes heroic feel like challenging!
i can see why that is, but equally ironic
Sorry lagging internet
it happens lol
You don't need to use the handgun I use I am just testing it
But testing what?
As it is. The build you posted...theres not really anything good about it
It can be improved, if thats what you want?
Well, what are you looking to get out of it? Are you trying to build for something specific, or just a general build to play with?
Both I am trying to be able to run through heroic missions with out a problem
So if you can help me with that then ty
Then I would suggest farming out a simple Strikers build. Its the easiest to farm and capable of all content.
Check the pins, and use the google spreadsheet. It'll help you
Ok thanks
Any help with specifics, just ask
Ok
i rarely run hunter's fury because to me if you're that close you're dead no matter what.
i solo mostly so i probably wouldn't run into your issue, but then again i'll probably die for some odd reason anyways
Add armor cores and memento backpack and instant fun
I forgot to ask which specialization?
Gunner for Armour on Kill usually
DUA Leggo with a Mortar Skill Damage/Healer/high CHC Capacitator hybrid build. This is a highly experimental build that I have always done quite well with on Legendaries that arent Tidal Basin
(All red attributes are CHC ideally. The CHC would then be 56% in total instead of just 44% as in this current setup, just need that roll on chest and mask)
My mortars hit for around 7-9 million each and I can fire one every 3 seconds at best unless my turret is on cooldown (only 15 seconds or so)
Thoughts?
So here is what I came up with. Playing around with it and still need to optimize the WD on chest. 12 mil DPS to the head at full stacks. Base DMG of 580k at no stacks.
Does anyone know if the mortars deal less damage when enemies are in the edge of the radius?
@hexed steppe mortar strikes again
nice
dont bother with fox's, the dttooc only helps oxi or one of the firefly (demo i think). instead use wyvern for more boom... or if you have yellow sacrifice then put a china knee on
with mortar supremacy im hitting about 10mil a shot, when overcharged 13mil
i dont think so, tho i havent really tested it... i know you can have tiny pieces of cover that will protect npcs, but if the roles were reversed you'd be dead
either way you run it tho,
Mortar Gang!! Rise Up!!! 
i did a bunch of rigorous testing just now with the exact same parameters on the first purple enemy always spawning on american history museum mission and i found this out.... the dttooc doesnt do anything
you are my new best friend 😊
this testing I did also helped me conclude that the damage is the same wherever in the radius
you mean i wasn't before ?! 
🫶
Try my build its great
wait..... do these work for mortars?
yes, dta helps explosives, oxi, and fire
pls senpai tell me they do 🥺
no you 🔥😎🔥
wait man... maybe it might just not be worth to run wyvern then since Skill damage is such a big pool already.... maybe i should run like ceska with yellow core instead and skill dmg. Cause that +8% skill damage is realistically like... not 8% .... because its additive
Was going to suggest the BTSU gloves 🙂
that sacrifice 😳
dont mind the missing chest mod, its not active loadout during screenshot. its haste 😂
pfffff.... who even needs skill haste man. BTSU takes care of that aaaaall by itself. may as well specc into crits brotha. Plus try memento with this its fantastic
and mortar cooldown is so low by itself its like who cares lol
its not enough damage with memento. well you are gassing the haste with memento so it kinda matters
might as well go full crit chance on the 2nd attribute so you can actually get a decent capacitor: mine does 700K per crit even with only memento and all crit chance
wym?? what kinda numbers are you hitting that im not with this?
I get like 8-9 mil on full capacitor stacks
against purples and elites
i hit 10-13mil
that bag is 30% total skill damage, not really using it for the haste btw
Its an amp?????
and as a single source, force multiplier is as effective as perfect glass with no drawback
HOLY SHIT ITS AN AMP. i didnt think skill damage amps existed outside of gear sets. thats so huge
if you were using it with kinetic momentum they would be additive together, but in either of our setups with glass, it acts as an amp, yes
im so happy i found ur build hahahaha
so will shock and awe, and tech support, but they are only 20 and 25% and wont apply on first hit like perfect combined arms can
wait..... 3 seconds isnt long enough tho sometimes.....
just remember if you use it, its only a 3sec proc but you can proc it mid air right before it hits
read my mind
??? what
hidden tech? 🤔
fire mortar, proc pca while its traveling
whats pca
ohhhhh shit i misread combined arms. thought it was procced WITH skill dmg
nope, weapon damage
well thats easy then
whats the deal with the stinger hive? dont u wanna heal teammates? xD
and yourself for that matter, perfect glass cannon lookin ahh
fk them teamates 
agreed
they can keep hiding, i keep blowing stuff up
but to care about others you must first care about yourself; how do we solve the self heals
i kinda play mortar different then a lot of skill users tho.
easy, dont get shot
😎
😡 knew u were gonna say that
ill use the stinger to protect a flank or teamates, and stack off anything that gets within range of it, since you know, theyll be flailing 😂
quick idea tho.... why not maybe run health damage on capacitor since DTooC doesnt work for mortars
you want a shotgun over the lmg, like capacitor, shotguns come with 12%dta and are good for cold starts when you dont have time to get cap stacks... its an easy 30% skill damage on a 1 tap
which one tho?
thorn?
also what about this idea? does health damage work for skills?
i saw ur build and ur running the super shottie... why not just an ACS for easier time aiming cause its automatic and fast firing?
i think thats a super 90 but sometimes i swap to oxi, it has dttooc 3rd stat and i like to save spec ammo if i swap builds (dont ask, i do a lot of build swaps as i play).
mop shotgun is ideal secondary with the 10%aok 3rd stat
you in game or is it middle of night for you 👴
both. why ya ask
gonna see if you wanted to run some shit
Oh i gotcha. Uh tomorrow ill for sure be on if u want to then but for now i wanna do what little I can not to turn my circadian rhythm upside down xD
Tomorrow as in the afternoon of janurary 3
all good
Anyways catch ya around then! G'night!
how good is unit alloy and is it worth using over something like ceska on striker
equalizer chest is pretty solid, iirc its towards the top. not sure if its best tho
More or less.
The thing that win's is the 4% more TWD.
RoF will always increase DPS at some degree. It's depends on the weapon and how much Crit you're taking away from it all.
I'm not enjoying the striker class, and PvE farming is starting to get boring. Do you have any build suggestions that are easy to use, not too overpowered, and allow me to level up quickly and enjoyably?
What classifieds as "Enjoyably"?
There are plenty of builds guides in the Build Hub if you're looking around.
The striker set isn't fun for me because it's too fragile. Yes, it deals high damage, but the stacking time required to reach that high damage is extremely tedious.
By no means I am saying you need to use Strikers. I am just showing examples.
I understand you, but the part that's boring and not fun for me is this. I sent it as an answer to your first question. 🙂
I mean I asked: What classifieds as "Enjoyably"?
Not stacking?
I need better context to be able to help answer questions.
you may not have the correct striker setup. it happens. what he wants to find out is whether that's true or not, because for most people striker just works fine in pve farming
if you build it right, the striker stacking shouldn't be the focus, like no need to use acs, just point and shoot with the elmo or any garden variety AR you have
...with that said striker isn't the best set for pve farming either, even if you built striker the best way possible for farming
any headhunter setup would probably be better than striker. but what chow said still holds. what he and i suspect is that your striker setup is just a bit far from the usual ones
for farming no need to use striker chest
that's what we were suspecting
the second is better but to go back to the striker one, replace the striker chest with either ceska obliterate or equalizer
no one's gonna stack striker to 200 or use acs for casual farming
This time it will be divided into three parts, right?
^ use that
hotdogs...
Things to work on.. I know
in the Build Hub as I stated from the my first replies.
To find these Pinned Message > Gear Sheet > Build Hub
i did test on Companion use "Executioner Perk" on assault he just One shot use RPG on Legendary mode
Hello, any advice for my build ? i got eaglebearer, ourobouros and lexington with the event, i am not sure about what i can improve from there
It's mostly fine, but idk why you'd run the deflector or whatever the named FAL is called
Lex with Killer will be on the top of the burst DPS charts.
Just to increase the proficiency of the weapon
To replace my exotic AR right ?
For the chest i have the new named perfect oblitared chest, i was rhinking to get the named holster or kneepad from the season pass with it, is it worth it ?
To a degree yes.
Whats the best roll for a memento?
There isn't a roll.. It's a set gear.
Yeah, but I mean what should i recalibrate it into? Chc with chd?
Memento doesn't have minor attributes....
Oh... then why-? Yknow what nevermind, im almost maxed out with all my memento core attributes
It only comes with cores...
Alright, so im runnig a mementos striker, is that good?
technically, memento stacked with minor attributes..
regen, skill damage, skill haste, status effects, skill health, skill repair, skill duration...
Just gotta stack em 
-# ill see myself out
Is a UA PO good for a memento striker build?
a what?
Unit Alloys Perfect Oblit
equalizer, yes
named items just need name mentioned.
youll obv want crit on it but its a solid chest
Equalizer + Striker + Overdogs 
Do loadouts save your Specialization weapon bonuses? Or do you need to go to a settlement each time you want to switch them?
no. its good you brought it up because it is important to change your weapon bonus choices to maximize dps
i wish it did tho, that would be a dope qol improvement
im still gonna be banging the negodogs drum, stacking is meh unless youre dealing with single heavy targets... nego just puts out so much damage in non raid/incursion content
overdogs really put nego back into the spotlight imho. its always been good, but being able you utilize the overdogs amp on any npc tier through transfer is a game changer (while targeting lowest rank and marking high ranks obv)
What builds are these guys running?
we don't know
Thanks for the assistance 🙂
there's no way for us to figure it out.
idk how to or if you can but on PC we can inspect them
How exactly are we supposed to know?
The pics of their builds were corrupted
They're a troll user. Don't expect much intelligence
I have intellectual superiority of stuff
Open chat and ask
Now what
Okay
Imagine im encounter that use this
You have a very interesting left shoe.
Memento does have a slot for a mod.
This should be CHC or CHD based on your requirements. You want to be as close to 60%CHC as possible without going over
Which good build to use for legendary or master mission ? In solo or group ?
A standard DPS build. Strikers, Tipping Scales, Negotiators Dilemma.
There are options for group support like Ongoing Directive which can work solo but its not as strong as the main DPS builds.
Striker is pure dps, will it be ok for soloing ?
Yes, DPS is king in Division 2.
If you're solo you can switch to Memento backpack for a little more survivability without losing too much damage when it's stacked.
But Master/Legendary is more about the player than the build. You can have the strongest build in the game but if you play poorly you'll struggle
👌 thank you
Gotta learn things like positioning, spawns, target priority, using environmental cover etc
I recommend watching some of Dien, Kestrel and Chows videos for some tips
I invested in some armor, still mostly a red ring (1 maxxed out armor, armor regen, and armor on kill) for a little bit of survivability
Armor Regen Stat?
^ coming up with different ideas for group play builds and decided to go down the rabbit hole of making hazpro + backfire combine to be useful to some extent. Am I onto something or am I just flat out dumb?
Why do you still use mx builder!
I've also managed to figure out how to make a 90% hazpro tipping build with BK 😂
I still use it because most of the attributes on build tool were bugged plus I also can't fully link save builds
They had expiring links for build sharing which I didn't like
Build tool
Whenever I would go to share the build via link and send it, it would clear itself. Tried doing the build share link inside the site itself and it would have a timer on it
Like how visual build tool is but mx swat has it in terms of simplicity
Mx or bs?
Did you save the build?
These are feedback we need. We won't change much for mx. It's only thru database.
Build station would clear itself and the sharable link would expire. Unsure if you ever needed an account to save the builds
Again I'm just asking. This is new to me.
Thanks for the feedback.
I know all of my links work.
like, 8,2k? around that, I forgot, I just threw it on, since I had one, I need to grind for some maxed out stats soon lol
I don't know the max amount but do you know what your armor is?
I likely never did anything properly as the site was still new at the time
Should be fully working properly now
Mod slots are empty for freedom of choice. I'd personally go CHD
not really, I'll check it out later
Check out.
Just looked it up. Armor Regen is 4,925
hi i need to have build on order to play with oder people incursions , healer or smth what ever other people do not like to play i just need new exotics i'm getting same exotics for ever now, Any advices?
Go to Gcrock server.
They will regularly run raids and incursions and they'll teach you how to do them
4pcs Striker Chest & BP w/ACS12 is the base of the build.
Otherwise where Dorky is on the spot.
If you need to know how incursion should be done there’s a video in my bio for it.
Wouldnt a strikers setup kinda be on par or even better damage wise instead of glass lengmo + backbone and fox's prayer? or am i trippin
This is a pesti build
Strikers doesnt apply
Coco is way easier to farm for pesti btw
The reason this or coco is strong for pesti is because pesti ticks work off weapon damage, dta, dttooc, some amps
3pc UA incl. Equalizer and Salvo, 1pc GS, 1pc Česká, Overdogs
So how do I set this build?
(Don't mind me, im an idiot)
Can I replace the vigilance talent with bloodsucker?
You can do anything you want
Bet
Thanks
To be most specfic. Bluescreen and Nego build synergize very well and is a very strong build in group settings to do scaling.
Bluescreen strengths is it's abilities to cc. In solo it usable but not too great since you tend to kill everything quicker with other weapons.
Bluescreen tends to do less DPS than most weapons due it not having crit mods.
A build like TS woulds better.
is CHD useless versus having dta then? because i have wpn dmg, dttooc, and chd
For Pestilence mostly yes. Although you still need damage outside of your ticks as they're just "additional dps"
Which is why the choice for 3rd attribute is normally CHC for LMGs
Which offers higher DPS? I’m switching between bluescreen, pestilence, and iron lung for exotic LMGs
I gotta reroll 😭
For Tipping Scales....an M249 with Measured or KIller is more beneficial than most Exotic LMGs
With Tipping Scales you absolutely NEED to hit 60% CHC.
even with all my chc mods im only at 50.8 with the exotic lmg setup 😭 i got 57 last night. i dont remember how
You're increasing your crit daamge with the set, so hitting as many as you physically can makes the set work.
oh it's because i have chd instead of chc on my pestilence and i have chc on my bluescreen
and i noticed that during last round of CD last night. accidentally had m249 equipped (i have measured on it, im still getting familiar with the talent) and it was indeed depleting health faster than irong lung and/or pestilence... i was thinking am i seeing things or...
With certain sets, like Tipping and Nego, hitting the CHC cap is paramount to making the set work. You can sacrifice CHD even if you go over the CHC cap
i alternate between ts and od
Killer isn't as usable as other talents for TS. You generate so CHD already.
Yes true, it was just my default. It would still be more useful than Bluescreen or Pesti though 😛
If you can get a couple of M249s with perfect stat rolls, you can set your loadouts so one uses Measured and one uses Sadist.
A lot of players like TS and bluescreen they kind of work well together but then bluescreen talents deal.
i will say i have not gotten lmgs (of my liking) with any perfect stat rolls lately. been separately optimizing
My go to talent atm is Measured. It's much more versatile than KIller and allows you to help more in group content without needing to change anything.
TS is finicky due to its stacks
im still optimizing this 249 im playing with. im at max wpn dmg, 10% dttooc, and 7% chc. still does decent with the current setup (i just switched on tinkerer and swapped off overdogs)
why does TS feel like it kills more efficiently than OD?
Because it does. It has a much higher damage ceiling
Higher peak DPS. Just like striker.
oh... but i like OD because i never run out of ammo 😂😂😂
Od still hits hard, and it's viable for all content. It's also insanely good for group support
M249 is great but it's con is it's reload speed.
i literally just hold the mouse button and aim. dont gotta let go to reload 😂😂
Any Tipping Scales or Nego main will literally snap your hand off for a good OD player
yeah i found that out 😭 many times i'm doing 1v4 in CD and i get killed because of reload
Swap weapons, don't reload unless safe or out of combat
TS I've only liked when I know I can stay in combat for a long time. For CD m60, BK, or bluescreen would be my go to.
How does a Lexington compare to a Caretake at max rolls?
Lexington beats it by a long way
Beats it.
G36 handling sucks and rpm loses out in general.
Caretaker loses DPS because it has awful ROF and Accuracy. Outside of 10-15m it's like firing a shotgun.
bk for the no reload?
sweet I just pulled a perfect one out of the box. Measured or Killer on it?
Either or
All Lexingtons drop max rolled.
Measured for group content. Killer for solo
Yup.
it wouldn't help having tinkerer though if i swapped to secondary
It always helps, even losing the buffs is better than dying
that's true 😂
no, chd is essential if running pesti. when you are making a pesti build you dont build only for the ticks, they wont be enough to carry the build alone. you still push for solid chc/chd, including chc rolled on the 3rd attribute for pesti. youll need a good tick along with solid weapon damage.
you are honestly not going to be able to fit dta into the build unless you run highend only and use contractors. and highend lengmo is a crappy farm to undertake when something like coco is readily available and stacks a ton of weapon damage and chd.
coco/glass/overdogs is pretty much the most readily available pesti build you can make
whatever chest brand you decide, i would glass/p.glass only
got it. i dont use pestilence much anymore but it's fun to play with sometimes
with coco youll be seeing like 2mil ticks along with really solid crits
I’ve wanted to try this set but I heard it’s kind of buggy and hard to get stacks solo
Uh.. I saw soemthing asking about OD?
it can be hard to get stacks. i have had it bug, but its a swap 1 pc off to break the set , then put it back and rest of session is no issues.
the problem with stacks is the mark only lasting a few seconds and if ttk isnt fast enough and they die unmarked you lose that opportunity for stacks. if you use damage skills like i do above, you can generate 3 stacks per kill solo. once you have stacks it take a long time to disipate so its easy staying topped off at that point. coco definitely works better in group
I can attest to its effectiveness even on open maps like Manning Zoo. Pestilence isn't as weak as you think
Have almost the same setup as Localdeck's but a less optimized Pesti with DTA and it still did gangbusters
I have a showcase video of being able to run it in solo heroic.
I’ll definitely watch it. I’m more than open to get the pieces I just didn’t know it it’s worth it till it’s not so buggy. Not trying to take pieces off and on mid mission lol
I only have issues with it when I get Rez or spawn into a on going mission.
We did it in like 2 CP clears for fun.
Is the new gearset an amp
no
but it's new bis set for pesti tho because of that
Please don’t say it’s AWD
it's all wheel drive i'm sorry
it's not not awd
it's awd
it's not not not not awd
Dude they had something actually decent here and then they make it AWD
It is decent
¬¬¬¬awd
just think of it as a pesti buff
Yeah bro I LOVE PESTILLENCE
I think I might make a blue Exuro build before I make one specifically for Pestillence
pesti kinda sucks yea. but hey at least it's not blacklisters.
why do you keep spelling it that way
it's okay bro go play with gr9 frenzy now
I was confused when I saw on and in zoo @hearty owl
Can we make Famas BIS again
yes please dawg
I’ve been hitting up the random mm legendary lately
Just to feel something again yknow
Dude
sorry that was too far. sorry.
Someone was telling me this build (but with all red cores and no PfE I presume it is here) does more DPS than Striker's w/ Equalizer and Overdogs. Am I losing my mind?
You trying to build another me? JK JK. Idk how you dealt with me and my buddy.
I miss you and your buddy. Back in the good old days when the Incursion was a passion
ragebait used to be believable
Their reasoning was the increased RoF and larger mag results in more sustained damage
It didn't make sense to me but I cannot prove it mathematically
Next time answer them with "spreadsheet or it doesn't happen"
I referred to iKia's Striker's / UA spreadsheet 😄
this might be true in terms of mag damage (total damage in mag) but not burst damage or sustained
the extra rof from the set and salvo is only ~7% increase, versus striker backpack which gives ~12%
also comparing against overdogs is quite a big claim here that's also going to lose
Not sure, maybe the mixed up something. But there are reasons why NBB is not top of the line in PvE
striker damage buff does not apply to pesti, its a unique amp that does not affect the tick damage
I’ll give it a try. Shines with an lmg or Lexington works well
it's the same line of reasoning whenever someone thinks that larger mag is better. they just think in terms of mag damage. see it all the time on YT
unless the youtuber copies the build from another youtuber, posts it online and when someone comes asking for the maths they don't know how to answer and instead block you
ive heard that chameleon is good. whats a good build for it, and is it even good
it's meh, an smg disguised as an AR
use it on strikers is most recommended
you can also kinda struggle to maintain its stacks so keep that in mind
apparently exodus gloves refreshes the buffs, is this true?
I'll let someone else answer because I haven't messed with exodus yet
buffs?
the chameleon buffs
ig cham stacks?
yes
yeah cuz you go out of combat but that alone isn't going to be game breaking or anything, it's just a small synergy
Why 2x Unbreakable (Exodus gloves do the same basically, aside from annoying the f out of your teammates :D)
exodus obscures me, and unbreakable gives armor
The advantage of using Exodus gloves is that it is kinda like that talent so you can use a damage talent on your chest I would say
exodus also gives back full armor anyway if you know how
stop haxxing pls
how
stop subscribing to my hax sir
if you swap weapon (pistol is fastest) at the right time out of combat you regen all armor
@subtle bluff Whats ur tech tank memento heartbreaker setup look like? whats the 6th gear item (high end) that ur running?
The funny thing is, I don't have gamepass so I don't play in groups
I am looking forward for to a solo build
literally anything but support builds
Pinned messages has a Spreadsheet with builds
ceska, salvo, really whatever.
That's also why I switched to pc, plenty of fun and no expensive subs to play online
not to mention all the cool kids are on pc 😎
Damn right
😔
switch to pc gng, I need you to be here
u wanna farm?
Is running the beacon chest worth it in countdown over the overdog gloves
Stash it goes. Thanks
in a moment
What is the RoF of The Bighorn when scoped in?
somewhere around the reg id say like 160-180
It seems even slower than that
Was it nerfed before or was it always that slow?
Soo the semi mode never got changed..
So I guess I heal the enemy with headshots?
So it's less dmg.. than it should have
Visual bug
Yeah it does seem weak considering how slow it fires
Biggest DMG number I was able to get out of it was around 6.5 mil
Considering that my rapid fire Rifles can do 4-5mil seems crazy low
anyone know if Health damage works for mortars?
I think its only damage to armour that works
Has anyone played around with Turmoil Kneepads
Seems like they could make for an interesting build
Yes, there niche/situational
I'll throw it on my Striker's and see how it goes lol
Don't really see it making sense on anything other than the highest dps build
Probably good for speedrunning easy content
Situational. For speedrun WR as a whole the community don't count those.
EB & The Apartment best Combo
plot twist: can't hit headshots
Is the best combo in the room with us
Does this also destroy grenades fired by enemy grenadiers?
No
Oof totally me here with EB. 🗿
revive hive says otherwise 

they add final measure to div 2?
Nah measured assembly
name got me confused wth
a little bit
it doesn't destroy grenades anymore but skill proxies. wish it did grenades
doesnt seem to give the same buffs either
It's a neutered final measure at its best
Whats the tempest drop rate in legendary summit?
Low.
And it's only Floor 100.
Although once you do get it, I can highly recommend the iKia build that has it+the tech hive.
I just got it
The irony in that picture is that the strongest weapon is the pistol lmao
Mozam! 
Asking real quick, for my chameleon attributes do I want DToC and Crit chance?
first two are fixed and you want dtoc on all weapons except lmg where chc is bis
O_O oops.....
welp thanks a ton for that wake up call xD
np, welcome to the club
How does CoCo compliment Pesti? I was just randomly farming it tonight and I pretty much have the full setup per the guide, but I get killed so easily 😂
it's the best gearset for pesti ticks right after HE lengmo
Stacking weapon damage
When looking at making a build what’s the most important things to look for
Thank you
MY GUIDE!!!! 😄
You'll want CHC on Bluescreen and pestilence. As for iron lung and Bullet king, that's situational. Depends how crit starved your build is. And what difficulty content you are playing. Everything can be killed with a crit, yes, which is why CHC is considered 'best'. Additionally another argument is if you have plenty of crit on your LMG, damage to armor wouldn't hurt to have either. Assuming most of what you're fighting has armor
I run CHC on my Pesti / Bluescreen / iron lung / bullet king. Most of the setups being gearsets and crit starved. But on high end setups I'm able to run DTA with BK/Lung due to them having crit mods already. I'm able to have high CHD and DTA all in one. So really the "Best in Slot" standard here really boils down to what your builds stats are
DTA 6% mathematically doesn't do better 90% of the time. If you're above around 190 CHD than sure but then RoF brings up your DPS more than DTA would.
in TS and BF builds yes you don't care about crit because you have an over abundance of crit so in the past Foxes was worth more.
To finish the point now a days since Ceska is slowly being phased out CHC is more important now.
Ye typically how I categorize 3rd attribute on LMGs would be:
CHC > ROF > DTA
I still like DTA on my LMGs because occasionally I will play Umbra + Ninjabike with Walker harris included. The DTA from 2 piece walker and the 3rd attribute being DTA pairs well in PvP. It can be done on PvE environments but most times you'll want CHC since most enemies you are fighting are mainly reds/purples and later on you face yellows
Like I get the thought of a new number to add in but 6 value isn't enough most of the time.
When Killer becomes part of it all that when things change.
PvP is a different story.
But majority of my PvE setups is CHC anyways
That WHOLE different mind set and things.
What build should I be getting after striker build?
Honestly, I say go hotshot next
It depends on what you want to do.
Could you tell me what does it do?
MMR one shots
Shoot a red/purple enemy in the head once, killing them usually, and with Determined on an MMR and chainkiller with Perfect HeadHunter, you'll be 1 shotting basically everything in the body
And it'll usually always count as a headshot kill
I'm confused since I don't know what's perfect headhunter or chainkiller lol
Gotta remember I play both PvE and PvP. I know this is a PvE build channel but DTA does have some uses in certain areas. But you are 100% right, the 6% means next to nothing in terms of damage now that we have other sources to pick from. Plus Ceska being phased out is what's hitting us. I'm still rocking Ceska, unit alloys to me is a bit of a "oo shiny let's use it" brand set when it only benefits AR playstyles mostly
Chainkiller is a named chest piece that has the talent "Perfect Headhunter" on it. The brand is walker and harris
Ah yeah makes sense then
I can post a template for you to use if you want to farm for it. All you really need to do is read what the talents do
Can easily get a hotshot build in like 1-3 countdown runs
Yeah sure, would be nice
Alright let me cook up a template for you 💯
I mean I wasn't talking to you specfic I thought we were talking in general.
What's white death though?
an MMR.
If you read. The MMR weapon almost doesn't matter you only need one with DTTooC and Determined.
I meant if it's a named weapon
Or whatever the normal variant was, I can't really tell
Oh we were talking in general, I just happen to be the weirdo who plays both PvE and PvP. It's as you mentioned, both modes have two totally different lines of thinking 😂
I have seen high end builds hit for fairly good crit damage and they had DTA on their LMG and they did pretty decent damage. Unsure if it would be considered optimal yk?
Chow btw I'm fully swapping to build station. It's basically like MX now and it's way less buggy than it used to be 💯
And might I add... Actually kept up to date unlike MX
They use the same database
the features on BS we're adding to it.
Same database for sure but the site is now way more functional than when I first checked it out
It's also got all the new gear in it unlike MX builder where I'd have to warn users 'hey this piece is just a placeholder for this piece since it's not been updated'
You have to clear DB a lot with mx
For me I just open a duplicate tab and save each link separately and attach a screenshot to each link. I do have a private Google drive with my own personalized builds but I don't ever post them publicly
ah
It's a named Classic M44 Carbine
So for example, if I wanted to showcase 2 builds with MX both with slight tweaks, I'd just duplicate the tab and change it there. It would let me do that. If I tried it with build station, at the time, it would just full reset everything
Ty
I hate the mobile UI a lot. I have to do the pinch zoom and alot of times I accidentally refresh the page. So my build wipes 😂
It's the reason I'm pushing for BS well
also for the guides... more mobile friendly
Build station I'm running into the same problems where I'm opening the selection screen and it's over zooming in. I have to manually type what I'm looking for just so I don't click the wrong thing
YA we just added something for that
Personally I just force desktop mode but then I have the issue of "everything is too small to read"
You guys are doing great work for the community 💯
Trying to collect feedback is the hard part
You guys basically have a solid tool. It functions exactly like something I'm already familiar with (same database as you said). Except it's wayyyyy more visual like how in game builds are. My girlfriend recently used it and she said it's WAY easier than MX builds bc it's like it's right there in game for you. She's still struggling with the visuals of the game itself and BS helps that
I had work yesterday and I came home and found her playing countdown. All on her own. Farming for the pieces I sent her from build station. She used to need my help and now she doesn't. So really, a big number of the community here has been helping her along
Yeah that one I WISH functioned
I wanna try to figure out how to make a DPS graph for stack ramp.
MX builder has TTK. Wouldn't it be the same thing almost?
Trust we know. Only one has it done but kind of a pita to use.
MX build doesn't do DPS.
Nah TTK not DPS
So like it'll estimate how many seconds to kill or so
Yup
💯 can't wait to see it
I wanna make something like this to compare builds.
I have some ideas but this is a new things for me.
I should tag Rowdy for this.
It's actually really good data to look at
It makes soo much more sense.
The reason sacrifice is so high is because it's STACKLESS. It's flat rate
TS is easier to for tho.......
You get the damage immediately with glass cannon. Unlike the other stacked talents
Preaching to the us
However, your damage is an immediate plateau as soon as you're stacked. Unlike the other alternative that offers more after 15s
That would be king in legendary I'd assume
The other builds would be fine if 3 others ran them and then say 1 guy ran the blue build on the graph
Oh chow! Girlfriend cleared Leggo DUA with me the other day 👀
How to get overdogs exotic ?
I had DTA on my pesti since I use it for PvP and dark zone. Should I be putting CHC on instead?
You want DTA for PvP. PvE CHC.
youll need CHC on pesti everywhere
Mr chow says DTA for PvP. But you’re saying CHC even for PvP and dark zone PvP?
I made iKias red measured build
all headshot damage attributes. I can reach 6 skill tiers in full man groups due to the 2 skill tiers u begin with from memento and from technician.
Tbf this isnt exactly what he was running. here im running memento instead of MA backpack and sacrifice instead of a chest with overwatch talent.
It really depends on numbers. Depends on the build and numbers.
thats because pestilence doesnt come with any crit mods
even on an umbra build itll be heavily crit starved
Do both actually pvp?
Afaik fifty does a lot of pvp
I do a decent amount id say. at least whats most common
on paper, Which would give more damage on a Tipping scales build, the TS chest or Perfect focus chest? Assuming every other gear piece is same
Are you using a scoped weapon?
Yes to activate the talent
Salvo is pretty good on TS, I'm surprised it beats PGC
Then again it's probably the chest doing it
i cannot put this build down (yes im intentionally taking gunner for AoK to keep my armor topped off)
What build you use for PvP?
perfect focus
sweeet
Playing around with this build and it seems a little weak. What is the consensus on Regulus? What should I change to make it stronger?
consensus on regulus is that it's very strong. Spot on or urban lookout on the holster is not a great option.
I'd recommend Dodge City Gunslinger's Holster instead, as that makes it a lot easier to start Headhunter stacks. Otherwise you could move an IA piece there and use Overdogs, Contractor's or Fox's.
what IC3SO said; on top of that make sure that you have pistol damage upgraded in your specializsation tree.
How exactly are you trying to play it? Regulus is the strongest exotic in the game (debatable I guess, but it's top 3 easily) but it also has a very high skill ceiling. Both in game knowledge and mechanics.
Also just IMO but I don't run it with IA pieces. That seems to be the common recommendation now and I disagree with that being the default. The increased threat is a really big problem if you're pushing spawns.
Those are the two variants I like but most people have their own variants (that aren't far from that though).
That's an example with DCH
Also worth a watch (that's @tidal swan and @onyx sage)
what are you hitting at the top end hh stacks with reg?
You're missing the point.
high end feels off for me idk why, whether it be this or ia
it just doesn't feel like it hits super hard
the clip above is with the high end version
For pvp I use a ninjabike backpack version instead of this
“disappointment%” very real
but damn maybe i just suck idk
Honestly I don't like HE at all and would rather just use HF
the disappointment% is HHF, the clip purple sent is high end
don't diss my uncle using high end in zoo sir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zP7pYTIU9G0
Sir your uncle could solo god with a wet fart. I would never diss redlightning, I just don't like HE
no sir my uncle would definitely take it personally sir
Don't tell him please
Lol i litteraly saw you today and saluted at you crazy
Lol I saw
I was playing with my girlfriend lol
I was inspecting you tryna figure out anotherbuild to try and look for looked fancy
I've got a good number of different builds I like to play. I likely was using striker, the high end sniper build you responded too, or something else
Dodge City was the way to go. Much better out the gate with that on.
Im still relatively new so i dont have a lot just running the sea horse set with drone trying to farm for a capactior
I dropped 2 of those today. One I gave away and the other I deconstructed
Im tryna do the uhh 5 challenges for summit?
Then maybe work on that sniper build you had
Yeah summit is the quickest way to get it
My setup: https://buildstation.app/td2/builder/game/wMKhiSlu

Oh sick youre the bomb
💣
I was curious does the secondary weapons perk activate if i have for an example nemesis out?
no
This is about average
where should i go to farm for this stuff still not able to figure out where to farm gear
Look for countdown on your map (Pentco Power Plant), make sure you set your targeted loot to what you want. Matchmake countdown on challenging. Follow the group, don't do VIP
No vip follow group got it ❤️ tyvm man
If a group all goes to VIP just follow them honestly
1 more thing: do not use skills that deploy when you are at the very start or extraction for Countdown.
e.g. turrets/drones/hives. The Hunters there can hack them and turn them hostile for your team.
Yeah be careful with it. A tier 6 striker drone will obliterate the DPS guys. Had that happen to me today
If you just run after your team and do the objective, you'll be the MVP in most Countdown runs.
Everyone else is happy to kill, just go vacuum up the loot afterwards.
Hunters can hack any deployable skill. Nothing hurts worse than a tier 6 stinger hive
Damn okay okay obj slave away
It's a pretty easy mode. Recommended to all newbies for build farming
Ty again!
hi all i just got catalyst mask is there any good builds
Catalyst mask is terrible. So no, there's no good builds with it
is measured assembly useful?
Fairly, yes. Has its speedrunning uses in Incursion as well as Legendary setups protecting you from drones and skills
It pairs well with smart cover as well
it doesn't protect you from grenade launders right?
wow that was harsh xD then its going to stash to eat dust xD how about tinkerer ?
launchers
Sadly, no. But smart cover allows you to gain explo res with fortified smart cover
I personally run precision smart cover
Sadly, catalyst is a gimmick exotic. Tested and proven to be horrible. Catharsis, coyote or tinkerer easily tops it. Tinkerer is a great mask, it's good on specific builds
I personally use it on Striker builds, Ongoing Directive builds, and Shotgun/LMG builds (Shotguns and LMGs have the strongest talents in the game)
4pcs ongoing-ceska bpack w/wicked - gr9 w/sadist - and a trash lmg just for frenzy is that good enough
i mean i like it this gear melts but i feel like smt is not right
Sounds perfect. But what's your CHC and CHD?
It is only possible in descent
55-133
yeah I just realised can't have different wpns talents lol
Should be hitting like a truck
Personally I'd rather just go Sadist + killer
Does the possible gains from tinkerer outweigh overdogs?
after triggering frenzy sheesh it melts away but spending all that 250 bullets takes time but thanks for advice ill try killer
From what I tested on OD, I found myself liking tinkerer more. OD was a bit too much amp, diminishing returns almost
Amps arent additive tho
At least that's how it felt in my opinion. Idk the numbers side
There are times when overdogs is and isnt working tho. Tiered npc req and all
I felt like tinkerer provided way more consistency
Because you can use pressure point for the 15% amp or whatever
That's a fair assessment.
Plus Sadist so that's basically somewhat half of ODogs
30 ish from Sadist, 50 from OD chest, I think 15 from pressure point
It's not additive but I'm just keeping it bare basic due to just overall uptime
besides sadist, eyeless, ignited nothing gives as much amp, so overdogs will beat tinkerer if overdogs is active. but that comes with the obvious caveat
I'd rather use something I know would be active all the time VS something I have to guess on every time
the only difference between tinkerer and overdogs is whatever the 2nd talent gives vs 30%
numbers wise
and right now no weapon talent beats 30% except sadist itself
Bullet go big
precision strike would like to have a conversation
Bro got the 7 kill streak. He's gonna pull out chopper gunner next. Then the 25 streak for the nuke
tactical nuke weapon talent. Massive make it possible
I'd like to see them tactical nuke all the f-- cheaters first
Walk into dz, half the server has cheats and confirmed
Instantly walked right back out. Noooooope
Half? sounds like an underassesment
It genuinely was half. More than half the players there were on my blocked list. I use it to keep track of cheaters and pets
The other half were part of a clan and weren't flagged
Yeah I was saying half was a low estimate
Well with how dead dz is, they all left to play other games. I don't blame them 
So I moved away from hotdogs already.. been cooking up this breaking dogs hh casserole for mixing rifle/mmr hh. Both 1886 and harvest are streamline.
These are only range values on red bar targets so actual usage will have a lot more variance.
I already have airaldi bag which is what I've been using, but testing others like 2nd walker and the IA pictured
I have that build
overpoint? breaking dogs?
breaklisters when
Barking dawgs
Foxy Dogs.
⏸️
dog's prayer
Determined 1886 on it
over fox's
I dont have
time to take you thru the pact...
Ig so 
Local', you can't reveal that us mods are all secretly terrible at the game.
cmon now.
I can bring decoy aegis 💯
no thanks
Just me. Npcs just trip up the walker and grandpa is done for
😂
marauders:
Harvest doing same DMG as my Regulus on that
He can whack them out of the air with the walker
hey guys getting back into the game have the builds changed
Still got striker?
May have left when striker was meh
Short answer, yes.
There are a lot of options and they're usually pretty easy to farm
Check the pinned sheet.
Striker, nego, ongoing directive, tipping scales all solid dps
man thats alot to take in
ive been purposely not using determined for a while now. there is just no satisfaction in the cheese for me. streamline has actually been pretty good tho, and if a skill is out or on cooldown ill be on shroud anyways. mantis is really good and gets used from time to time, but i been focusing shroud lately.
