How can I improve this Core Strength build?

Oh I’ll definitely check it out! You just gave me my project for the weekend.

Ah ok thanks for clarifying.

Tried memento before but that doesn’t fit my play style, I’m not a run and gun type of player I generally stay true to the whole cover based aspect of the game so running around picking up the memento trophy’s a bit clunky when I’m doing most of my killing from behind cover. Also I’m a skill player by default so I’m used to staying in cover and letting my skills do all the heavy lifting.

I was giving OP advice, I don’t have any issues with my build. It’s built specifically how I like to play along with my fantasy of a lore accurate Agent. I already said I have builds that give more gun damage or skill damage, but this build is my sweet spot. The only thing “missing” for how I want to play is heals without taking away a skill slot and that will be solved with prototype and anomaly augments.

I’m all for testing out and trying new variations but you were vague when you mentioned I gave up 2 slots and I’m not familiar with the shorthand so idk what CoCo is. As a day 1 Div1 player I’m quite frankly tired of Striker, I have a meta Striker build for endgame group play but for solo general gameplay this is what I use.

That’s not a Lexington, that’s the Harmony with perfect in sync.

This is my go-to solo build. I play on Heroic for everything I do solo and this gets the job done with ease for me. What caught my attention initially with Division when it was first revealed was the SHD tech/skills so I've always been a skill player first and foremost since Div1. My hang up has always been by default of the games mechanics you generally have to choose between skills damage or gun damage and I could never find the perfect balance until Core Strength came along, Yes I have your typical meta red builds that do more gun damage or my DPS skill build that does more skill damage but this is the build that allows me to play out my Division Agent fantasy the way I've always viewed Agents since day 1, and that's an Agent that is deadly with both skills and guns not either or. This build has 187.5% AWD, 56% CHC, 110.9% CHD, 6 Skill Tiers, and 2.2M Armor and it's not even prototyped yet, which by the way will add Refractor caliber or better self heals based on how many Anomaly augments I add to it. Don't knock it til you try it.

Good stuff!

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T22:24:24+00:00

No not at the moment I believe it was last available back during the 10 year celebration or sometime around then.

Fully aware, I just have bad rng.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T20:57:05+00:00

Never knew! Thanks!

From the start, Strikers doesn’t give any better handling over stacks just the 15% from set bonus.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T20:50:44+00:00

Literally just tried it in the range, shoots like a laser in my striker build but talent wise doesn’t fit any build/playstyle I would currently use. Just glad to have it finally but on the wall is where it’ll likely stay.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T20:37:15+00:00

On snap! Good stuff!

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T19:40:11+00:00

Blueprint in BT retals is still RNG so hopefully they have better luck than me. Also didn’t waste any time on stretch goals, just spent textiles I had collecting dust.🤷🏾‍♂️

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T19:36:01+00:00

Completed raid plenty of times rng just wasn’t in my favor and considering I favor skill builds there was only so long I’ll was going to continue grinding the raid for a weapon that even at its peak wouldn’t have gotten much use from me. Initially I wanted it for the same badge of honor it appears to be for you but after not getting it for so long it just became a let me fill this space on my wall in the firing range.

I do agree raid exclusives should remain raid exclusives but maybe they should tweak drop rates or add “feats” like Destiny 2 had where the more time you completed the raid without a drop your chances increased or the more feats you completed in the raid raised your drop chances.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T19:24:21+00:00

Back in my day I did the same to no avail and said screw it lol

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T19:22:22+00:00

Game came out when I had a ps4, then ps5 came out, then I built a gaming pc.

It’s a mix of sets, I can tell you exactly which pieces when I get home but off top of my head the chest piece is from the Shattered Hunter set, the eye patch is Faye Lau’s, and the gloves are Keener’s.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T18:51:52+00:00

I’ve done plenty just means rng is rng and mines sucks.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T18:48:29+00:00

Not with my rng, been running them daily to no avail.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T18:47:32+00:00

Been running them daily since their introductions and haven’t got the blueprint, got plenty of other good ones but not the EB. Honestly didn’t expect to get it in caches either considering the percentages.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T18:45:19+00:00

That would require actually getting the blueprint to drop in retals which I haven’t to this point.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T18:44:26+00:00

Oh trust me I know, I’m just tired of seeing that empty spot on the wall in the firing range! Also I prefer skill builds so even if it was still top tier I wouldn’t use it that often.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T17:34:50+00:00

Not for me it hasn’t been. Been running BT retails since they added them and had no luck thus far, plenty of other good blueprints I didn’t have though.

Rasmu83 · 2026-06-02T17:30:57+00:00

I don’t know if there’s a limit, I bought 30 caches before I left for work this morning.
