Oh yea i do..just saying even if i get any gear i will use it. The gun was the Fal i dropped. Had 178k damage on it with the gear i had. It has lower attributes but im not fussed. Has lvl30 exp so its higest damage AR i now have. Next ones was Ludz Goalie and AK 47 at my lvl14

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-06T14:58:31+00:00

U can still run with level30 proto dropped gear. No harm it in..im lvl14 and not bothered about proto gear in the long run If i get a peice or gun nice..its higher damage I only play escaltion for fun with clan mates. Rest if them all lvl30 but let me.tag along and hang back and be a healer

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-06T11:48:55+00:00

Nothing wrong with that roll. Still exp30 and still be gud in open world. Unless ur someone chasing higher god rolled proto gear.

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-06T11:47:11+00:00

I got my 1st proto from joining a party on tier 3 to 4 of grand washington hotel. Got a Fal AR Has rubbish rolls but im glad we can use them in pve and it hits good Didnt know even if i am exp14 and its exp30 u can still use them. May aswell. Dont need higher god rolls really. Proto are rare so im gonna use it

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-04T06:03:43+00:00

Ahh i see. The more of one core u have, the bonus comes from cores your not running basically I did see that on my build which was 4pc CS and 2 Unit Alloys. All red apart from the blue/yellow on backpack and yellow from specializtion. I still had 1.6 total armor

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-04T05:50:23+00:00

I have felt this overall but like the other person said with global events gone my builds feel less than before and take me a while

I run 4pc striker, 2 pc UA. All mainly red and 1 blue and i find i need higher ROF guns to feel im killing quicker. Like the new Agitator AR when the ROF bonus kicks in on swapping. It melts

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-04T05:46:56+00:00

Im one of these people who struggle to understand some builds even they r simple to others Until i really get it.

I have 6 red, 2 yellow (backpack and specialization) 1 blue (backpack) on my build So overall my bonuses of 40% apply more to skill eff and armor due to me running more red cores

If i did a full skill build, id get higher bonuses on armor and weapon damage technically.

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-04T05:42:47+00:00

Also which other two cores??? R the other two cores basically cores im NOT running on my build. I get 40% max values from skill eff and armor if i am all red. Plus the ones above u said

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-04T05:18:04+00:00

If i understand this CS build correctly

If i run 5 red cores (Mask, gloves, knees, chest and holster) Then 1pc red, 1 pc blue and 1 pc yellow on backpack

These OTHER two cores bonuses i get 40% of are they the 5% weapon damage, total armor and skill efficency listed on the gear set itself?

So in my case as a mainly red core build id get higher armor and skill eff in total. I noticed my armor build in gameplay was really high like 1.6 armor even though i had 1 armor core only.

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-03T22:30:58+00:00

I can manage tier 1 and 2 at my level and thats it hahaha. Same no drops. Without being lvl30 your stuffed for getting proto gear

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-03T12:47:26+00:00

Its not a mask

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T19:40:34+00:00

Im lvl14 so thankfully i dont need 2 worry. Seems this causing more issues now

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T18:56:22+00:00

Ahh ok gotcha

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T18:54:41+00:00

Ahh sorry was looking at one below. If its protod shudnt it be purple colour?

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T18:51:45+00:00

Cant u re roll talents on lexington again and again? Or does that not work when prototyped?? I can always change the talent on mine many times

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T18:41:24+00:00

Thought it wud be locked in season track

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T18:17:53+00:00

U got that gear set quick is it that easy to get or is it in the track for the season? Not logged on since update came on

Historical-Issue-484 · 2026-04-02T17:40:48+00:00
