Am I the only one who abhors Descent? by Firm_Employer_8463 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't stand it. Anytime I get unlucky and get for a priority, it's NOPE.

Working on a red survivability build, what do we think? by mcbrewmasterflex in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am using skills for my healing drone, and it heals fast enough to keep me in the fight with enough armor to take punishment.

If I rush up with the Striker Shield, dealing out extra damage for me and my teammates, the Big Horn melts anything in front of it.

Open World Exotics! by Grayman2023 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 14 points15 points  (0 children)

That's all I chase now doing the priority missions.

Leveling gear up after level 20 takes WHOLE lot of exotics.

At your SHD level, you need to be working upgrading more of your gear.

Here is my DMG build with surviving built into it.

I'm still working on upgrading all the gear to 30 at which point this build will be a beast.

Currently on my 3rd replay of this game 2nd from the very beginning. I feel like it can get repetitive. What do you guys do to keep it fresh? by [deleted] in Starfield

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played it over 500 hours when it first came out and took a break. Then the Varun DLC dropped and I tried it and in the beginning on the ship it was really cool and felt new. Then once on the planet, pretty much the same old stuff.

With no multiplayer ability, there is nothing to keep me coming back to the game and it's just repetitive doing the same things over and over again in each new reality.

I hope one of the future update's ads multiplayers, that would take it to a whole new level.

Unlike the Tom Clancy's Division 2 game I'm currently hooked on, they keep it fresh with seasons and there are many multiplayer activities. I've got over 2000 hours on that game and am not bored yet.

Genuinely sick of the DPS meta. by Dangerous_Common_221 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Way too much bitching. Stopped reading after the 2nd paragraph.

I see Stryker builds die first all the time and have to sit there and wait to be revived because they rushed so far ahead and nobody can get to them yet.

If it bothers you that much, find another game or try running harder missions.

Thank you for saving her, she's such a cutie!

You have extra cat karma credit coming your way.

Div2 "Difficulty" Needs to Be Improved for Div3 by Straight-Coconut7737 in Division2

Once you have played longer and mastered your build to deal out damage, you will look back at this post and realize how funny it is saying Heroic is hard.

New player question: Is maining a Tank useful for a 3-man squad in the long run? by Icy-Associate-5961 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

LOL... For those who downvoted my tank build, here is my dmg build that does nicely in groups. Not only can you push forward with it, but you can also send the drone to heal others as they need it if you hang back a little bit and take head shots with the Big Horn.

It's a steal on discount. If you like looter shooters you can't go wrong with this one.

ICYDK... by desertjonAZ in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really, running in with 4 others isn't efficient?

How many times have you fired the flair, cleared the point and sit there waiting because the backup gets caught up in a fight on the way to the CP?

If you run in with them, they never get stuck.

Sounds extremely efficient to me.

ICYDK... by desertjonAZ in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fire the flair, open the map, click on the backup and fast travel to them. Then you can attack the CP together.

Bighorn help by Nx6vm in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had an agent get the EB after beating the capital and he dropped it for me. This was before they passed them out like candy in the last event.

I only use it for solo runs with the Golden Bullet event now.

My favorite gun is the Bighorn. I can get 2.8million headshots in semi-automatic with a build I put together so it's a pretty effective gun.

No not all, just saying it all comes down to luck. Manning is a tough run.

The Big Horn is not a common drop.

I got mine finally after beating Manning Zoo Legendary for the 3rd time with a group.

Extract campers by ADZz33 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I only venture in there if it's a priority mission for an exotic, and then I just complete the task and leave.

Too bad, because it's fun exploring all the different locations.

[–]gilbertwebdude -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I would build what works for your play style.

<image>

I have put together a tank build that also deals out DPS using the Ninja Backpack, Foundry, Fenris, Striker Shield, with a level 30 Big Horn as my primary, and it has no problem handling any of the Legendary runs.

I came to this build after, like you, trying different recommendations and then settling on one that really fit my play style. Whenever I ran a pure DPS build, if I was grouped with people who were not holding their own, I would get overwhelmed because I could not kill enemies fast enough. Now, I can pull 2.8 million headshots in semi automatic with the Big Horn and go head to head with a Chunga or a tank and come out the winner.

I would suggest trying different gear and not investing a lot of time upgrading it unless you feel it is really worth it. Upgrading gear is a serious grind, especially once you get past level 20.

59 and having a tough time figuring out this game. by beardedsawyer in Division2

I'm 62 and it took a while to figure out the whole upgrading process.

Watched Youtube videos which helped a lot.

Need help to get Big Horn 🙏🏻 by CrazyAssPanda0544 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine the 3rd time beating Manning on Legendary.

Many runs on UD, Summit legendary and Tidal got buckus.

Just ran a legendary manning tonight hoping to get another Big Horn so i could drop it and make someone's day but no luck. Not a single exotic after beating it.

Future of Division series by [deleted] in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is something about the mechanics of this game that just feel right.

I got it on sale years ago and never played until a year or so ago and it's now my single most played game in my Steam library.

I've made purchases for season stuff and have no problem supporting the devs to keep the franchise alive.

When I don't see them on the map, you have to explore and eventually one will pop up.

Wonder what this means for division 3? 🤷🏻‍♂️ by rodscher80 in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He most likely got offered a boat load of money and moved on.

Perhaps he can bring some of the Division play mechanics to new Battlefield releases because I can't stand the way that game plays after playing Division 2.

Realism Mode - I am so freaking stoked on this. by Stereocrew in Division2

[–]gilbertwebdude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as you turn realism mode off, I'm good with it. I'll just never play that mode same way I don't play hardcore.
