I wish they'd hurry up and introduce level 229 weapon blueprints to the dz vendor. I'm sick of trying to loot a decent AR. I looted five heavy machine guns last night and not a single assault rifle.

Agreed! Picked up so many and only 1 good roll on a SMG. I would like, as a primary, a G36 Enhanced with Brutal & Deadly and then when fixed recalibrate Focused to Responsive / Fierce. Although I'll miss Accurate (have 48% on the talent on my G36C - still from the very first UG cache). Fierce on the primary would be better and have the C in the secondary slot (has Responsive).

Could you post a screenshot of the appearance tab where it shows the names of all the items?

Was mental. Apologies again, one of the first times I have run DPS on anything other than challenging lol At least we completed it :)

And yeah, no problem, will send it to you later on.

+1!

I am hoping to get another g36 so I can roll focused off, and I will also be trying to find another AR in prep for the nerf or modifying the LOVA-C 229 I got the other night.

Got a 229 Mp5 last night - still to be fully customised, and I also got one of this mini smg-9's which I need to do the same for. Little bit of fun lol

*************
I think for tonight Im going to run HM UG for xp, and run Heroic Lexington as I need to raise my PC again for weapon rerolling.
 
Don't worry about it Gamble; it added another layer of fun and difficulty. Those NPCs were well hidden and hard to hit, took ages. I had fun for the entire duration! Close to 30 so will need a UG run on whatever difficulty.
 
Got royally screwed over with npc types in the UG last night.

2 phases of "defend" style operations, with 4 directives. Every single wave across all stages had 3 of the heavies with shields.

Took us an absolute age, and then of course we died on the very last wave. The rage was strong :D
 
I'm at crossroads with my DPS build.

Strictly a PVE build 5x268 sentry 1X229 Savage gloves and EDR is at a massive 0% lol

I get 92K headshot crits with the G36 Enhanced using no buffs from pulse, smart cover or booster shot.

I have an excess of 535 armour that I can roll to something else but then the options available are rubbish imo as there is no crit chance or crit damage

So I can roll only one major - stamina, firearms, electronics

So do I go Electronics with the hope to gain more skillpower and use some of those electronic based weapon talents??

Do I add more stamina to gain more toughness? However 450K is more than enough if you play smart and don't put yourself in awkward situations.

Or do I add more firearms but then how much DPS do I gain?

Decisions
 
I would go electronics to be honest. The firearms increase and stamina will be minimal and as you said, 450k is enough and any gain wont make a difference.

Electronics could be a good shout though.

Is there any other part of the gear that could have armour removed from it? You could add armour to the holster, and then remove it from somewhere else that could give more options?
 
To those who still dont know - 9 medkits - equip 2 Alpha gear items + paramedic backpack.
If you do UG missions,make sure you wear them before train,or it will reduce medkits to 5-7,ammo is easy after train
 
sounds like those bug fixes may be inbound tomorrow:

weapon recal on named weapons 3rd talent
reclaimer issues (also the spamming of all consumables)
map bug

i forget what else

Good man! Cover is your best friend, remember that with that build and you'll be fine. Why do you need to get used to it?

@ Twirlywoos: I'd go firearms and gain more dps for a DPS build. You may get some more SP elsewhere (mod). I'm currently at 265.8K DPS and am still hungry for more (over 300 I want).

Put two FM in the backpack for those situations you need EDR. It's what I do and am the happier for it.

Food for thought? The Blind rifle may breathe live into the Blind set...?

What is so special about the blind rifle again? I cant remember any of the information on it aside from it has crazy RPM and decent damage.

And I need to get used to it because I cant run support forever lol

TBF, LMG is very useful if you get a L86 and RPK.

My L86 can reach a dps near to the G36C when shooting mobs out of cover.

Its a bit harder to land headshots but as a secondary its not as crappy as it used to be.

I will look out for those as I have never used one properly. Worth a shot I suppose :)

Every other gear piece has had the main attribute (stamina or firearms) recalibrated. The holster even though not the best one hasn't been recalibrated.

Dunno but these issues are annoying

-Skills suddenly disappearing
-Lag
-Frame rate drops
-Underground NPCs knocking you out from your Inventory screen
-Underground missions resetting themselves
-underground bosses getting stuck behind doors and not dropping loot
-Disconnections still happening
-Alpha Bridge gloves missing main stat
-Weapon gear items that suddenly cannot be used even in the 204 weapons they were previously used in
-G36 is getting nerfed
-Cannot customize character again
-Gamble's character causes the weapon to block his view :p

I'm keeping my 240 FM stuff until I get better 268 gear from the DZ as it is handy for Dragon's Nest. I still have a 204 Classic M1a that doesn't even have deadly so it's not the perfect roll but I hit 2 million behind a pulse and cover and I would like more. :D

As the holster isn't the best anyway I might as well just try and roll towards high Firearms.
 
I wonder how badly the G36 will be hit? At present my dps when on cool down and with under full health, is 278k. Whilst not on cool down and with full health it seems to settle at either 335 or 348 depending on the mood of the game. I'm expecting the worse tbh. I actually tried a couple of Mp5 st's out instead to see if I could get used to them as an alternative. Ended up dying at the DZ 6 West extraction as it took too long to down the npc's.
 
Been busy with our new house so not had chance to play until yesterday, lots of changes made and looking forward to getting a good few hours on it . i had an hour last night and things felt a little sluggish not sure if its just me and the fact i've been offline awhile . everyone still on the same discord channel? i will jump on and see if anyone fancies dragging me around abit

1000 RPM, Distracted talent: 100% DMG increase against blind/deaf targets (expect an 80% nerf).

Tek: AlphaBridge with two good ARs are the only way to save us from the nerf.
 
neil_g said:
its supposedly approx 30% more powerful than all other ARs.
Click to expand...

Then what did the dickheads expect, really??? Who the hell programs these stats, are they at least connected to the dev team who do the others!???

Yup Massive guys, an AR that's 30% more powerful isn't gonna be popular at ALL.....:rolleyes::mad:

If popular then = Nerf in their eyes. Wish they'd just **** off and let us enjoy the game!!! Why should they give a crap that the other AR's aren't being used, really??
