So far only opened 9 superior caches from the GE stuff - not really played it that hardcore - seen quite a bit of moaning on the forums about the RND with it but I've got almost complete Reclaimers, Sentry's call and Strikers classified sets (missing 1 or 2 pieces from each though) and for some really random reason 2x Historian one with good stats the other with great stats heh.
EDIT: Spent the last 4 hours of the GE "speed running" Amherst apartment over and overat around 3 minutes 10 seconds a pop just under 5000 GE credits an hour :s didn't get that much aside from Ferro's oxygen mask. Probably faster ways to do it but it was pretty much easy mode solo.
RNGesus hated me during the GE - from 5 Superior caches I received 2 striker classifieds and no exotics...the rest was typical set piece junk...
I did enjoy the GE event though, used a shotgun more than I have in a long time!
Cheers
RNG in these events are a bit mental. I opened 185 superior caches overall, and whilst I finished all three sets with fairly min max stats and had almost 14 of the same gearset item for a lot of pieces - I had 1 sentry backpack the whole time lol!
I have 2 reclaimer builds which are great for incursions. Mass healing with this one but bugger all in the damage specs. All geared for healing with skill haste mods. I have a ton amount of Exotic Caches, which I will open when 1.8 drops. About 10 weekly caches as well.

That's the only thing I hate about Healer builds, no bite!! I made a 7k Elec HE/Exo build based around Skulls which is a semi-healer build (with a wide station) and really like it due to the fact that at 5k FA the Skulls combo still gives it some power 
Yer, I only use it for Legendary or incursions, so hopefully have some glass cannons with me.That's the only thing I hate about Healer builds, no bite!!

I would always advise running health on kneepads and backpack instead of skill power, will give around 300k toughness which most damage dealing hybrid people have. Like in PVP I don't spec stamina but always health on those two items.
Then haste everywhere + gloves/chest/holster like you have done.
Just a tip, and will still give 25.5k healing per tick on the station without rate mods so lots of flexibility.Haste is king!
For weapon talents, competent, talented + free slot would work perfectly on builds with no FA/Stam

I think theres another 2 weeks of pts and then it usually drops about 2 weeks after the pts is over (from what I remember)

End of the month if we're lucky, beginning of November more likely. It's a *big* patch tbf
Had a go at survival - strangely a little addictive but needs way too much investment in time to really do it well and a bit more work by the developers really to be properly enjoyable. Was the last one left alive but only made it to about 20 minutes before running into a huge group of enemy.
Survival is great, I was doing it a few times a day at one point. It normally takes me ~50 minutes to complete.
Don't think I'll be bothering with PVP - when I've grouped with other players or done survival half the other players I've encountered warp like crazy and things get a little funky at times like far more instances of teleporting AI and delayed heals, etc.
Server/networking performance of the game seems quite impacted since the assault GE started onwards.

Rroff! You've gone from new player to tier 5 in a little more than a few weeks, surely you're already investing enough time in the game
how many hours you been playing it for lolMy regret is not reaching level 99 on undergroud, it's absolutely dead.
40 is max level for underground currently - I've not had too much trouble finding people to play it with.
Survival is another matter though - you really need to sit down and clear any other distraction - with much of the rest of the game I can play in bursts around other things, etc.
