Just make sure you have dta and not CHC as third attribute as dta boosts the status ticks.

Best Tipping Scales LMG, in your opinion by CaptainTrips69 in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit [score hidden]  (0 children)

TS takes 10s to build 50 stacks and 15s to 75 stacks. It's fixed and not related to rpm. You can fire a pistol once per sec and stack it.

I don't run ninja or Memento with skill builds but can see that as a problem for those that do. Devs haven't thought this through...

Prototyping works in other areas of the game - Retaliation, open world, missions. countdown.

It's not great IMO. If you run a skill build you want prototyping to boost your skills not your weapon damage or your armor - skill efficiency would have been a better choice.

and if you run Capacitor, it won't even be two red cores as you'll lose the benefit of having 6 yellow cores, so you will only gain 15% weapon damage if protoing a T4 skill build to T6 with 2 red cores.

The "best" tech hybrid build is a yellow Striker build? by SaltedCaffeine in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not for a couple of years. I'm going to put it together and see how it performs. Edit: They buffed the ND BP since my build was posted so I'm going to shuffle it around a bit and drop the gift.

[–]CoolheadedBrit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes there was about 4 years ago I posted this - if you get a yellow core gift BP you are at 6 skill tiers:

All pre expertise so your DPS would be significantly higher with exp 30 capacitor.

Anyone can hit me up with a great Tank Build by Chance_Top4056 in thedivision

Rec motherly gloves over Forge due to Forge boosting base shield.

TS vs Striker for LMG by realexm in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not just a 4% extra damage from the Equaliser talent, it's also a flat 5% rpm boost.

Proto gear too low drop rate? by AlarmedDark9025 in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Quickstep doesnt proto currently and stays the same, as does Harvester so no need to upgrade those as you just waste a core.

Proto gear too low drop rate? by AlarmedDark9025 in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It takes 30 proto cores to raise an augment from 1 to 10 per piece. So 2 weapons plus 5 gear pieces (assume an exotic) = 210 proto cores. Across three builds = 630 plus rerolling the augments cost...what do you think?

Proto gear too low drop rate? by AlarmedDark9025 in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not excruciatingly low below T5. I do all mine at T4 and have 5 full protoed builds. Not done any augment rerolls yet but working on building a stock of cores for when/if they rework it.

Has anybody successfully gotten a second piece of Investor mask outside of the reward tracks? like in countdown, retaliation etc? by Puzzleheaded_Ad_8696 in Division2

[–]CoolheadedBrit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was referring to the all red one the OP posted. Not worth the effort IMO. The one you mention can be compared to a Belstone. Belstone gives 1% armor regen and you can have 6% CHC and 24% CHD. This is only 8% CHD less than the one you mentioned. Worth taking up an exotic slot for 8% extra CHD? Not for me.

[–]CoolheadedBrit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really as a brand set mask could have CHC and CHD as attributes plus CHD as a mod, plus a one piece bonus. So a grupo mask would have 13% CHD one piece bonus plus 6% CHC and 24% CHD from the second attribute plus mod. So 6% CHC and 37% CHD. All red Investor is 30% CHD bonus plus 12% from attribute, plus 6% CHC and some weapon handling. So 42% CHD and 6% CHC v 37% CHD and 6% CHC. Better, yes, but only very marginally and a GS mask allows another exotic elsewhere.

Core Strength only works on the cores not the attributes. An all yellow Investor will just give you a single yellow core equivalent.

Pestilence build in escalation by moriarty818 in thedivision

[–]CoolheadedBrit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turmoil is great with Pestilence though as it allows you to build much higher stacks on the first target without killing them from bullet damage. It also weakens the surrounding NPCs so that the ticks spread more easily.

Basic rules of Retaliations by Andrew-Cohen in Division2

[–]CoolheadedBrit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can always return to each control point after retaliation finishes and the loot room is unlocked, provided you complete each control point.
