@Goldz-n-hoez what are your mp5 stats and talents?

I have same talents on vector and mp5 brutal, destructive, and the third talent is different on both. One has the health on critical hits and the other one I forgot what it is but it's decent. The roll I was aiming for was brutal, destructive, and deadly. I'm not sure if that's even possible I crafted about 10 so far. I use extended clip with +13 weapon damage.

 

[Pimp]

You are saying that you can have the perfect gun/gear with all of the proper talents to maximize DPS/Crit damage or whatever build you are trying to make without division tech?

You shouldn't have to work for crafting. In most games like this, you don't have to work for crafting because it's meant to be an alternative for people to get decent gear since they are not able to fully dedicate the time like other dedicated players. They could fix this problem if they simply didn't allow the best gear in the game to be crafted...

As far as shotguns, as much as I like them I don't see the point when I can just use a vector that already has a very high crit chance along with crit damage boost and quickly down you from ranges where a shotgun would not be as effective as it should.

They only armor I use in my actual setup that came from division tech are my gloves.
You can buy your head,knees, back pack, gun, mods all from the base of operations. They will put you at least at 160k dps.. Maybe because I ran a 30 man lobby and farmed finch nonstop.. I got my body armor with relentless which boost your DPS 30,000 alone from challenge mode..

I'm copping a PS4 tomorrow for this. Anything I should before jumping in on this game?

Lol I have similar stats to that. I was saying at the LEAST. With all that DPS... One sticky bomb will kill him... One shock turret will have his ass unable to move or shoot, you guys looking at DPS which can be inflated by bullshyt... That don't mean shyt if you can't hit the target.

 

[DrunkenNovice]

Those crafting cost changes are big.

What if he was immune to status effects?

 

[Waldo Geraldo Faldo]

I cant find the formula to getting high dps while maintaining decent health

Get at least two dedicated gear pieces to stamina with mod slots for firearms or electronics. Also, try to recalibrate some of your gear to give x amount of health points.

 

[The Fukin Prophecy]

In The Tech Wing. You're gonna need phoenix credits.

The dude who sells the vector 45?

He meant it doesnt cost you div tech to craft the item in the blueprint vs how it does with the blueprints that come from the dz

But the update says some blueprints are going to be updated.

That crafting update kills the 2nd player farming method.
