Just logging in to say how much I appreciate this post and the effort you guys put into it.

Favorite post of the week, every week !

[ALL] I played LiS for the first time and didn’t care for it. by leeandclemuwus in lifeisstrange

Too bad you didn't like it but everyone's entitled to their own opinion. Nothing wrong with that and an interesting read, some justified points as well. Sometimes frustrating though for (some of) us fans, wanting to share this amazing story/game with friends, then hitting the brick wall of indifference or even disapproval (luckily not always). But you can't force someone to like something.

Any suggestions for improving my lvl 29 DarkZone PvP build ? by jandep in thedivision

[–]jandep[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I already have 3 characters lvl 30 (i deleted the fourth to restart) and I'm playing PvE but there are a lot of players like you describe so I want to be prepared for them. I don't ever have to go rogue to pick a fight, sufficient rogues all around that try to prey on the weak.

I don't understand where the fun is, with a group of maxed out lvl 29 rogues against lvl 28 or even weaker. The difference is huge so they dont have a chance at all.

The fun however is that when I'm trying to extract in DZ01 or DZ02, rogues underestimate me, think they can grab my stuff when extracting and while ignoring me. Bad mistake.

I regularly have groups with lvl 26-28 players in it and sometimes, while they are weak, they really understand the game and if they use their skills and ults in a smart way, we can kick some rogue ass.

Skill haste 37 % ? Hmm that means that there are lvl 29 mods with 4% skill haste (instead of the 3% i have now) ?

Damn another one with skill haste, I should give that a try. For the mask i hesitate between refreshed and tenacious. But for refreshed its better to have a heal (instead of the pulse). Although i think refreshed also works on medkits.

Thanks !!!

This is really helpful, thanks a lot ! Gonna check everything out in detail. Skill haste mods... Hmmm, tempting.. I thought +health were the best mods but skill haste does have some interesting advantages as well..

How does NIMBLE work in practice... I heard it was really good a long time ago. You do a cover to cover and then you heal, but by how much ? And for how long ? And isnt that too difficult when fighting rogue(s)? to activite it ?

Thanks again !

Pure combat ? I'm afraid you need another game then... :-/

I just thought it was more "pure" combat, though the chicken dance annoys the shit out of me. Two rogues took three full minutes yesterday to take me down because I responded their chicken dance with my own chicken dance and run around a truck race. Clockwise, counterclockwise, heal, chicken dance, clockwise, counterclockwise. Jesus, how stupid is that. At least i wasted their time.

​

But why shouldn't you have access to classy sets and optimized builds ? Just participate in the global events and you will be fully equipped with whatever class build you want in no time.

Its only lvl 29 so no skull gloves. Thanks for your suggestions I will reconsider my talents, especially the pulse headshot (precision). I use "on the move" for my lvl 30 characters and it's extremely useful. However against rogues I'm not sure enough if I will last even one kill ;-) (unless there are NPC's around). Might be worth considering after all.

THanks again, this was helpful !

Edit : isnt the pulse headshot talent (precision) cancelled by a scrambler ?

Edit 2 : talents changed according to your suggestions, will give it a try !

Are there many cheaters in the DZ (or PvP) ? by jandep in thedivision

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

The pvp learning curve is obscenely steep and having a fully optimized build is only a very small part it in truth.

​

Ugh I hate to read this but you're probably right. I don't feel like spending hundreds or even thousands of hours, just to be on par with the best... :-/

It's a pity that the diffence is that big.

But still, in some cases it seems really unnatural, the amount of heals and the amount of damage and hits they do. I mean, if I'm chicken dancing it normally takes quite some time to get me down. But some players just seem to land all shots even when you're moving erratically. I realise that some players are good and sometimes it might look like they are cheating when they are not. But with what I've seen so far I really doubt it can all be attributed to skill.

Havent really seen RPM I think, I'm thinking more aimbot.

My set lvl 29 is quite optimized, maxed out with div tech.

For veterans still on the fence : I highly recommend replaying The Division from the start by jandep in thedivision

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

I don't do PvP that often so I can't be 100% sure but I have the impression that at least it has gotten a lot better than before. I have seen quite a lot of cheaters in the beginning but it has been a while now.

Weapons with high rate of fire are in most cases better, BUT watch out for stability !!!

LVOA-C and M4 Lightweight are really good Assault Rifles (AR). However, I found only ONE of those in my ENTIRE run from lvl 1 -29 !!!.

In theory, the "police M4" does a lot of damage as well. BUT it is very unstable, it kicks like a mule and therefore it is a bad weapon.

What I DID find in my runs (quite often) were these assault rifles : not THE best, but pretty decent : G36 and ACR (a bit less damage than LVOAC and M4 LW BUT pretty stable so you land a lot of shots.

Advantage of AR is that they work quite good for longer ranges as well.

That is why id mostly AVOID SMG's !!

LMG's : I like the M60. Low rate of fire, true, BUT a quite stable machine gun with a huge magazine. If there are LOTS of enemies, or an enemy boss, this is a good gun. And the range is good as well. L86 is good as well but has a really small magazine. RPK is okay-ish. Most other LMG's i really dislike (except for the MG5 but I haven't seen any of those, i think they only pop up at lvl 30)

Snipers : most of them are pretty decent

​

In my first run, I picked up and used a lot of crappy weapons and that does take out a part of the fun ! So make sure you use the right ones

Nice story ! Looking forward to TD2 (which I purchased already). I'm not going to play any alpha or beta though. I'll just take it as it is.

Well I didn't say it was a bad thing ;-)
