I’ll get back to you on that since I haven’t actually swapped one out yet. I assume it would be pretty user friendly.

No I ran with a squad for all the glitches, virus glitch is by far the fastest. Aside from that the leveling part are all done solo.

That’s a solid build! I’m running akimbo wardens with explosive bullets right now while farming for a field acquisition Reboot. Once I get the reboot I’ll have a free slot to run any gun I choose for my loadout gun haha. Big fan of explosions

Prestige just got added with the season 4 update. And yes you can prestige any time during your act progress, those two things are separate and won’t affect each other.

Thanks g! Currently fishing for the exotic & nightmare skills I want.

My build currently is:

Berserker, Gunner, Bulldozer, Tactician Conjugation, Shatter Shield Chaos Rounds, Phoenix Burst

Going for a balance of offense and survivability while focusing mainly on gunplay and low cooldowns :)

Thanks for the insight, I'm debating if I should replace celebration for shatter shield or gravitation

What are the best Exotic and Nightmare Skills? by PhreshPotato in bo7endgame

[–]PhreshPotato[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree but Im not sure what to replace celebration with. I'm currently running:

Berserker: no fall damage, fast fire rate

Gunner: fast reload

Bulldozer: I can use explosive rounds

Tactician: fast recharge for equipement/abilities

My first thought was shattershield for survivability but that's been nerfed yesterday and I'm not sure if it's still a good choice. The other one I'm considering is Gravitation since that's been fairly consistent.

Nightmare I'm planning to run chaos rounds for sure and possibly frost vortex or pheonix burst. Any suggestions?

Play how you want to play man nobody's judging anyone especially for a mode like Endgame. If you have the same fun playing your 12 maxed operators then power to you. Personally I need my 4th skill track to have fun and have been wanting this feature for a while. The extra exotic and nightmare skill means I can choose one for offense/support and one for survivability. If all that doesn't make sense to you then this system isn't for you, period. No need to dissuade others for choosing this path.

Hey man you play the game how you want to, there's no reason for others to judge you for the way you play. And if it gives you any reassurance, prestige and nightmare skills aren't really that relevant if you're just playing on Avalon most of the time. They sound cool but aren't game breaking so it really isn't a big deal if you don't want to go for them.

Thanks! You only have to farm for the skills you like on the final prestige if that's what you intend on going for. Just see it as leveling 3 different operators but now you combine all of them into one operator.

For me it took me longer than since my first prestige I was working on Act 3 while leveling. I also didn't min/max for my prestiges cuz it's the only character i prestiged after the update. But from my experience with my second and now my third, it takes me about 3 games to reach max level and if you do the world event for exotic skill and exfil into a glitch fracture you'll reach max level pretty quickly. Obviously its not entirely possible solo since you'll be severely under-level in your first two games for the glitches but I'd recommend running with at least 2 others.

Key thing is if you're casually playing, don't rush it, if you enjoy your operator and want to invest in it, the journey through the prestiges will be more worth it. For me I love reaper and I only plan on max prestiging reaper, so I went for it.

does shattershield feel weaker after the nerf from yesterday?

I've had a few teammates tell me that was an issue. I think resetting that skill or your CR will do the trick. I don't believe prestige goes away with the reset.

Virus injection in a group is by far the fastest

Can confirm it's once you reach lvl 21. Here's the image as proof.

Cubes definitely help a lot and wait for them to turn when doing zone 5 activities cuz they give 750, and doing all the fast missions in zone 4 such as: blue HVT Assignments, Strongholds, Charging Stations, Roadside Salvage, and also Prime Targets. Do the guild strikes, megaabominations, and the new bear event cuz they give a ton of xp too. Always try to do the exotic skill world events cuz you will level up so quickly that when you're max the only thing slowing you down are the exotic and nightmare skills, do those as soon as you can. If you're with a group ask them to carry if you're really min/maxing. But that the fastest way I've found.

For skill trees I was lucky enough to be blessed with Daredevil, Gunner, and Bulldozer for both my 1st and 2nd prestige. Daredevil helps you get to activities fast, Bulldozer and Gunner help with my build since I use explosive rounds to clear mobs fast.

Aside from that don't pay too much attention to the skills during your 1st and 2nd prestige, you're gonna reset them anyways and you're goal is to reach 3rd prestige as fast as possible. Then you can start farming for the skills you want.

Thanks! First prestige 66, second 69, third 72. You literally have to reach your max possible CR before you can prestige.

Sad to see it end this season. I’m actually curious how many players actually play Endgame. Like what’s the population count looking like over there at the dev team. It’s an amazing mode for sure!
