Just got a few Green drops on HM UG including a 240 Sentry's Chest :)

OK good!! I am glad to hear another gearset name other than firecrest or blind in the UG.

Nice one bud :) This is sounding quite good already and I checked on reddit as well, seems there are happier people with the drops.

Yup, only ran one mission but drops did seem better than usual! Will run a few more HM this avo then Heroic tonight with some of you guys :)

Nice! I will transfer gear to my alt for it so I get caches again. Already UG40 on main so want to benefit from a few extra drops/rewards.

Oh as an FYI - the BLIND vanity items are character transferable just like the other clothes :)
 
I'll be on at about 7pm. Would like to do some on Friday as well ED:)

Has Momo posted his build on the forum? Would love to know how he has made his AB build so effective. Here's where I am at present (sans BLIND gloves!!! ).

220k Dps, 497k toughness, 12k elec
4 x AB - All rolled with either pulse crit damage or pulse duration
2 x Mp7's - 42% Crit damage, 10.7k. Brutal, Deadly, Destructive + Unforgiving, Self Preserved, Sustained
22.50 Crit chance
192% Crit damage
75% mitigation.

Admittedly the Firecrest gloves I am using a re complete ******* trash (620 firearms) and I could do with rolling some stamina off and into elec instead, but....Despite it being a solid pve build, I don't do all that well in pvp. That could however, be down to me being ****e at pvp.

Firearms as a stat doesn't scale all that well.

You won't get much more DPS by getting better gloves if they've already got crit chance /crit damage / smg damage

My MP7 alphabridge build is very similar. I posted a bit further up with how underwhelemed I was with the build.

Think I prefer my MP7 with predators mark more. Run G36 for long range and MP7 for short range and just cause everybody to permanently bleed. Combined with another in the team running sentrys mark it just seemed more effective than the alphabridge build.

Yeah It really doesn't! As a test one day I pushed my firearms to 5k or just under and it was like...no different, very strange.

I enjoyed the AB but I have never tested my mp7 with my sentry/savage combination (same gloves are shared between the builds) so that might be a good test as I have the same SP on sentry and AB.

I have never tested predators mark to be honest! I may have to start collecting but that means finding people to do Heroic CS lol

Yeah, the gloves are crit damage, chance and smg damage. However, I was trying to sort a ABx4 BLINDx2 build. I have the BLIND holster but not the gloves:( I was hoping the additional crit damage given by the 2 piece bonus would prove useful.
 
Pulse shouldn't be relied upon IMO. too many teams understand concel pulse now and will use it in the dark zone to cancel yours out. I'd much rather take 2 x final measure to deal with the max sticky bomb.

Plenty of teams now run in a mixture of DPS and a skill build to provide max smart cover and throw out max damage sticky bombs.

Well, I only learnt yesterday that when the rogue symbol appears on the map...it is them pulsing :O I was shocked I didn't know it.

I am still trying to figure out the best skills to run. Currently it is overheal and pulse, but I tested overheal and smart cover which was good but I got distracted too much trying to bounce off it etc. Works well when NPC's are around though.

I considering flashbang as well.

Do you PVP? If so what skills do you normally run with? I can push my SP a bit higher, circa 32/33 from the 30 I am at.
 
Yeah I PVP a bit.

You want:

Smart cover (preferably from somebody with enough SP to max it out)
Conceal (Scrambler) Pulse
Damage boost (Tactical Scanner) Pulse
Shock Turret or maybe a flashbang if the enemy team are using abilities a lot

The damage signature is quite useful too if you want to increase your DPS to try and win the fight early.

and obviously lots of heals. Healing station is pointless in pvp, as is mobile cover and the seeker mines. The riot shield is too bugged to be relied upon.
 
Play a underground.. dying from invisible **** behind cover left and right. walking trough fire not getting hurt followed by a nice server schedule disconnect.. Why do I keep bothering with this piece of ****..
 
Yeah,i got striker 240 doing hard

Was this with any directives active? I did around eight runs on Hard solo and didn't get above 214. Typical luck :rolleyes:

I also fully agree on the DZ...haven't been in there for ages. I don't mind getting killed so much as losing the XP, which is needed to progress. I can always get the XP back, but what I can't get back and is more precious to me is the time it took to get that XP.

Cheers,
