- 00:01:33watch so in this step we're going to
- 00:01:35focus on rapidly adding the core stats
- 00:01:37for gear in our library that's the
- 00:01:39damage armor and skill tiers and then
- 00:01:42we're going to add the immediate key
- 00:01:43talents for the weapons backpack and
- 00:01:45chest I don't expect a lot of new
- 00:01:47players will know what those are so I
- 00:01:49have an exact list for you in this stage
- 00:01:51alone we are going to unlock four
- 00:01:53Exotics one of which is a guaranteed top
- 00:01:56tier exotic we must have finally we will

- 00:02:10you will also be leveling up your season
- 00:02:12rewards track in the background for even
- 00:02:14more rewards we're just going to
- 00:02:16consider all that bonus at this stage so
- 00:02:18this new player came up to me at the
- 00:02:20White House and said hey I just started
- 00:02:22playing the division 2 do you have any
- 00:02:24tips for me I was feeling charitable so
- 00:02:28I said sure thing rule number one always
- 00:02:31stay in cover got it what's rule number
- 00:02:34two replied the noob me well actually
- 00:02:37rule number one is probably enough for
- 00:02:39now I didn't want to overwhelm the poor
- 00:02:42sucker got it stay in cover anything
- 00:02:45else Noob replies so I said yeah if you
- 00:02:48see a guy in a hazmat suit don't try to
- 00:02:50shake his
- 00:02:52hand I don't think you got it you see
- 00:02:55the guy in the Hazmat suit is I got it
- 00:02:58we really got a lot to get through and
- 00:03:00really don't need the
- 00:03:01interruptions okay first complete your
- 00:03:04shd requisition project for the free
- 00:03:07exotic and named item to do this we need
- 00:03:09to quickly grab some basic resources so
- 00:03:12open up your project to determine what
- 00:03:14you need then zoom in on your map to
- 00:03:16find the resource node go for the easy
- 00:03:19ones to travel to and take minimize
- 00:03:21engagement here if you can it's in and
- 00:03:23out that we're looking for I left my map
- 00:03:25on normal difficulty and basically got
- 00:03:27God rolles from this project and now we
- 00:03:29got our first exotic if for some reason
- 00:03:32you are seriously lacking in all the
- 00:03:34resource categories it's okay just don't
- 00:03:36go do extra farming right now you can do
- 00:03:39this project at any time and we will be
- 00:03:40collecting resources along the way that
- 00:03:42will get you enough to complete this
- 00:03:43project before Day end okay so now that
- 00:03:45we got that out of the way second we
- 00:03:47need to slap together basically a
- 00:03:49starter build so don't worry about the
- 00:03:50details here okay this is just going to
- 00:03:52be to get us rolling and the content is
- 00:03:54going to be quite easy so the most
- 00:03:55important thing is to try to get to six
- 00:03:57skill tiers these will be enough to make
- 00:03:59your skills strong for what we're going
- 00:04:01to be doing if you have wyburn Hannah U
- 00:04:03or any other skill brand that makes
- 00:04:05sense go ahead and equip it otherwise
- 00:04:07put on whatever you can to get those six
- 00:04:09skill tiers for the secondary attributes
- 00:04:11aim for anything with skill damage
- 00:04:13headshot damage and skill haste over
- 00:04:15misscellaneous stats you're going to
- 00:04:17need a good assault rifle any assault
- 00:04:19rifle with the insinc talent is even
- 00:04:22better if you can get your hands on that
- 00:04:23you're not going to have any crits at
- 00:04:25this stage so avoid a weapon talent that
- 00:04:27requires that so just grab any AR you
- 00:04:30can if you don't have any ARS look in
- 00:04:33the vendors but don't trouble yourself
- 00:04:35with the details of the model your
- 00:04:37skills are going to be doing most of the
- 00:04:38work but if you happen to come across
- 00:04:39any of these no they're the community
- 00:04:41favorites don't let these details be a
- 00:04:43sticking point you won't be running any
- 00:04:45of this gear for long and we will be
- 00:04:47tossing all of this gear away very soon
- 00:04:50okay this part is optional but
- 00:04:52recommended it's important if you don't
- 00:04:53have the year run pass you will need to
- 00:04:56do projects to be able to use your new
- 00:04:58specializations frankly these are super
- 00:05:00grindy and sort of a drag if you get the
- 00:05:02year one pass you can unlock these right
- 00:05:04away and then from there you just need
- 00:05:06to level them up which is pretty
- 00:05:07straight forward I personally am not
- 00:05:08going to do it because this is a scratch
- 00:05:11account I created just for this
- 00:05:12demonstration but on my main account I
- 00:05:14did buy it and it was worth it despite
- 00:05:17the cost so keep in mind during this
- 00:05:19demonstration I will be playing at a
- 00:05:20deficit of power because I'm not
- 00:05:22demonstrating with the proper
- 00:05:24specialization I'd really be using but
- 00:05:26we're still going to kick butt it's not
- 00:05:27a big deal so if you have the Year One
- 00:05:29pass equip technician and aim to unlock
- 00:05:32the extra skill tier as soon as it comes
- 00:05:35available then assault rifle damage to
- 00:05:37do this you just have to level up your
- 00:05:38character while the specialization is
- 00:05:41equipped to earn points 2,000 premium
- 00:05:43credits holy moly hold on while I kidnap
- 00:05:46a tourist and steal their kidney okay
- 00:05:48here's the next step we're going to do
- 00:05:49this real quick you need a few e credits
- 00:05:51to be able to recalibrate gear and we're
- 00:05:53cash pour so we're going to avoid
- 00:05:54recalibrating as much as possible at
- 00:05:56first but things are going to go quickly
- 00:05:58and we need to make sure you have some
- 00:05:59Pocket Change you should have one
- 00:06:01available project bounty on the map
- 00:06:03complete that for 10 to 15K in E credits
- 00:06:06mine was on hard difficulty but take
- 00:06:08whatever you can get your skills are
- 00:06:09going to do all the work so just stay in
- 00:06:11cover let's talk about your junk you're
- 00:06:12going to be getting a lot of unwanted
- 00:06:14gear through this session it's important
- 00:06:17you don't trash or deconstruct or Leave
- 00:06:20Behind any unwanted items Mark pieces
- 00:06:23with key talents and God rolles for
- 00:06:25donation everything else needs to go to
- 00:06:29your stash that's so important yes even
- 00:06:32garbage gear do not deconstruct it all
- 00:06:35right let's kick it into gear so go to
- 00:06:37the summit we're going to spend about an
- 00:06:38hour in here to complete 15 floors in
- 00:06:41this time we will get two Exotics one of
- 00:06:43which is the capacitor a very important
- 00:06:45exotic for the end game and one of your
- 00:06:47builds at the same time we will get the
- 00:06:49starter pieces for your key builds you
- 00:06:52will be farming for strier gear and
- 00:06:54Palisades gear using the custom targeted
- 00:06:56loot system here's the shopping list you
- 00:06:58will need one Striker piece for each
- 00:07:00Loadout slot and you will need Palisades
- 00:07:02for as many Loadout slots as you can two
- 00:07:05must be for the chest piece finally the
- 00:07:07third goal is to amass stats talents
- 00:07:10junk gear and resources to level up our
- 00:07:13build and the library for the tinkering
- 00:07:16system go to the elevator and set the
- 00:07:18difficulty to hard and then choose these
- 00:07:21five directives fog of war no regen
- 00:07:24pistol lrow or ammo hoarders Special
- 00:07:27ammo and ragers each directive adds 25%
- 00:07:31more XP so you're getting 125% more XP
- 00:07:35this way more importantly directives
- 00:07:37increase your chance of getting targeted
- 00:07:39loot by 3 to 4% per directive up to 10%
- 00:07:42and now set your targeted loot to
- 00:07:44Striker gear so don't worry about the
- 00:07:46directives again your skills are going
- 00:07:48to be doing a lot of the work and the
- 00:07:49enemies are so squishy they're going to
- 00:07:51be dying really quickly to get the
- 00:07:53capacitor exotic assault rifle you need
- 00:07:55to complete five Summit challenges so we
- 00:07:58need to set the up and manage it as we
- 00:08:00climb and it's pretty easy each of these
- 00:08:03challenges will reward you with great XP
- 00:08:06on top of everything you're doing in the
- 00:08:07summit as well as Summit caches and more
- 00:08:10targeted loot all vital for a poor agent
- 00:08:12in need right the fifth challenge
- 00:08:14completed in this run will give you the
- 00:08:16capacitor and a summit cache the summit
- 00:08:20caches give you the elements you need
- 00:08:21for the tinkering bench to make your
- 00:08:23gear stronger pick any of the ones you
- 00:08:25want but my recommendations are all
- 00:08:28assured to be done within the 15 floor
- 00:08:30limit that we're going for ideally you
- 00:08:33got crate crazy the armor one sidearm
- 00:08:36specialist quick climber and distinguish
- 00:08:38the throne once you get to floor 10 the
- 00:08:41Summit is about climbing to the top as
- 00:08:43fast as you can the factions will change
- 00:08:45along the way and you will encounter a
- 00:08:47variety of objectives you must complete
- 00:08:49to progress forward things like
- 00:08:50interacting with a computer to disable
- 00:08:52something or destroy a server or
- 00:08:54something like that just keep an eye on
- 00:08:56the objective ta at the top of the
- 00:08:58screen every second floor after you exit
- 00:09:01an elevator will have a hidden key you
- 00:09:03must grab to open the cache do not miss
- 00:09:06these they can be hidden behind doors at
- 00:09:09the end of dead ends in random hallways
- 00:09:12the elevators are checkpoints that save
- 00:09:14your progress when you die it will take
- 00:09:16you back to the last elevator save your
- 00:09:1815 floor progress that you need is
- 00:09:20measured by how many floors you clear
- 00:09:22not by how many you actually climb once
- 00:09:25you complete the 15 floors you're going
- 00:09:26to complete your sumach project that's a
- 00:09:28free EX of cash a whole level of XP a
- 00:09:31recalibration cache and a random
- 00:09:34crafting blueprint all very vital at
- 00:09:36this stage just before you reach an
- 00:09:38elevator there will be loot rooms where
- 00:09:40you encounter resources and the stash
- 00:09:42for that key don't miss these treasure
- 00:09:44troves and the 10th floor will be a boss
- 00:09:46floor so overall you're looking for six
- 00:09:48Striker pieces one for each gear slot
- 00:09:50you don't really care what the stats are
- 00:09:52I know you want to but don't but if crit
- 00:09:55chance crit damage headshot damage and
- 00:09:57skill damage show up those are what
- 00:09:59you're hoping for as secondary
- 00:10:00attributes but don't invest extra time
- 00:10:03looking for those stats in the summit
- 00:10:05it's just a start a build and remember
- 00:10:07don't deconstruct anything junk goes to
- 00:10:09stash it took me about an hour to clear
- 00:10:1115 floors I got all the gear I needed on
- 00:10:13more including the two Exotics since
- 00:10:15you're new it might take a little bit
- 00:10:17longer because these activities inside
- 00:10:19you're not familiar with yet anyways
- 00:10:21once you're done head back to DC open up
- 00:10:23all your caches search through the
- 00:10:25inventory and Mark God rolles and
- 00:10:28anything with these key talents for
- 00:10:31donation especially beond the lookout
- 00:10:33for highlevel Cores like armor weapon
- 00:10:36damage and skill tiers put on the
- 00:10:38Striker's chest and Striker's backpack
- 00:10:40then put on your two best pieces of
- 00:10:43Palisades then fill in the rest with
- 00:10:46Striker gear choose core stats over
- 00:10:49everything else you should have two blue
- 00:10:51cores and four red weapon damage cores
- 00:10:54as far as gear stats crits headshot
- 00:10:57damage handling or Reg gen are ideal if
- 00:11:00you happen to have those because you
- 00:11:02have the striker chest and backpack you
- 00:11:04already have two of the strongest
- 00:11:05talents in the game and no longer need
- 00:11:07to worry about those making your job a
- 00:11:09lot easier and these will be giving you
- 00:11:11up to 200% Amplified damage the best
- 00:11:14damage type around now you just need to
- 00:11:16worry about your weapons search through
- 00:11:18your weapons to put together this
- 00:11:20assault rifle shotgun combo any high RPM
- 00:11:24shotgun will work if you don't have the
- 00:11:25ACs if you don't have any shotguns yet
- 00:11:28put it whatever and move on know that
- 00:11:30the capacitor assault rifle is one of
- 00:11:32the strongest in the game even if you're
- 00:11:34not running skills so if you don't have
- 00:11:36any good assault rifle yet just use that
- 00:11:40otherwise refer to the weapon combo list
- 00:11:43and don't fixate on this you're going to
- 00:11:45be upgrading very fast now as far as
- 00:11:47mods best is protection from Elites
- 00:11:50right now otherwise crit chance crit
- 00:11:52damage head shot damage or skill haste
- 00:11:55for specialization put on survivalist
- 00:11:57and assign Assa assault rifles and
- 00:12:00shotguns for skills put on a revive Hive
- 00:12:03and a shield save this build to your
- 00:12:05loadouts and name it countdown build you
- 00:12:08should have watch points ready to assign
- 00:12:10go crit chance armor reload speed and
- 00:12:13skill damage first use scavenge points
- 00:12:16for E credits because mostly we're going
- 00:12:19to be doing in the tinkering station
- 00:12:21when it comes to cost things that are
- 00:12:23going to cost you most of it's going to
- 00:12:24be recalibrating and if you look at the
- 00:12:27cost to recalibrate something what
- 00:12:28resources it uses it's mostly heavy on E
- 00:12:32credits as you can see that's the like
- 00:12:33the biggest bulk it costs more than e-
- 00:12:35credits basically Ceramics electronics
- 00:12:37and E credits are going to be what
- 00:12:38you're looking for so I'm going to be
- 00:12:39using those points up early to load up
- 00:12:41on my watch so that I can optimize my
- 00:12:43build quickly move everything else from
- 00:12:45your inventory into your stash just with
- 00:12:48this simple setup and crappy rolls we're
- 00:12:51already able to keep up with the big
- 00:12:53dogs in countdown and we're just getting
- 00:12:57started we're ready for step two and now
- 00:12:59it's time to upgrade our build by
- 00:13:01farming countdown this is a casual 8
- 00:13:04person game mode and we use it to Quick
- 00:13:06Farm gear named items and Exotics our
- 00:13:09goal is to use it to upgrade and
- 00:13:11complete our three key builds build up
- 00:13:15our library and resources there are only
- 00:13:18three things you need to know about
- 00:13:19countdown follow the pack sticking with
- 00:13:21the group makes things extremely easy
- 00:13:23and keeps you alive countdown will seem
- 00:13:25confusing up first but just follow the
- 00:13:28group the second thing is you need the
- 00:13:30right build check the third thing is you
- 00:13:33need lots of room in your inventory
- 00:13:35check this is a grab and go game mode
- 00:13:37don't stop to review your drops and
- 00:13:39remember don't deconstruct anything all
- 00:13:42junk goes to stash all right to kick it
- 00:13:44off go to the chopper and matchmake on
- 00:13:46challenging when you get in if you get
- 00:13:49in I've been known to kick noobs on Jump
- 00:13:51Street first thing you do is set your
- 00:13:53targeted loot you will be farming
- 00:13:55Striker Palisades and Brazos start with
- 00:13:59Striker Farm in that order okay as a
- 00:14:01quick overview the first thing the group
- 00:14:02does is eliminate the hunters they are
- 00:14:04deadly and as a new player just remember
- 00:14:06to keep your distance and to stay the
- 00:14:08out of my way also they will disable
- 00:14:10your skills and can heal themselves be a
- 00:14:12support player here not the tip of the
- 00:14:15spear after four Hunters are eliminated
- 00:14:17and you grab the dog tags that they drop
- 00:14:19you must complete two objectives the
- 00:14:21leader will choose which so just follow
- 00:14:24the group after those are complete a
- 00:14:26final objective will be unlocked finish
- 00:14:28that and you are now on your way to the
- 00:14:30extraction Point don't miss this part
- 00:14:32it's a mega battle for tons of gear you
- 00:14:35must extract to get your very important
- 00:14:38countdown credits most extract using the
- 00:14:40helicopter rope around 10 to 20 seconds
- 00:14:43left on the clock please don't be that
- 00:14:45doofus that hits the flare early you
- 00:14:47will get about 158 credits per
- 00:14:49completion and upwards of 50 gear pieces
- 00:14:53per run which take about 20 minutes so
- 00:14:56you're going to do three 20-minute runs
- 00:14:58that that should produce
- 00:15:00474 countdown credits you need 224 to
- 00:15:04buy an exotic cash so this is enough to
- 00:15:06buy two more Exotics you now have five
- 00:15:09Exotics one from the shd project two
- 00:15:12from Summit and two from countdown and
- 00:15:15those three runs should have netted you
- 00:15:17about 150 items give or take all right
- 00:15:20it's time to get sorting go through all
- 00:15:22your gear looking for any max rolls Mark
- 00:15:26these as either favorites if they're
- 00:15:27ones going on your bus build or for
- 00:15:29donation if they're random for your
- 00:15:31library listen carefully don't donate
- 00:15:33anything to your library until you
- 00:15:36assemble the three builds first the
- 00:15:38following are what you want to save to
- 00:15:40your library for each gear slot you need
- 00:15:42a Max weapon damage core a Max armor
- 00:15:45core and a skill tier and then you need
- 00:15:48crit chance skill damage crit damage and
- 00:15:51headshot damage for the chess talents
- 00:15:54you need only these four right now
- 00:15:56kinetic momentum Focus Focus obliterate
- 00:16:00and OverWatch for the backpack you only
- 00:16:03need these three blood sucker vigilance
- 00:16:06and combined arms for the assault rifle
- 00:16:09stats you're going to need assault rifle
- 00:16:11damage Health damage damage to armor and
- 00:16:13damage to targets out of cover for
- 00:16:15assault rifle weapon talents you need in
- 00:16:18sync measured and Optimist and what you
- 00:16:21equip is based on what you have at this
- 00:16:24stage notice no other weapons are listed
- 00:16:26and many talents are left off this is
- 00:16:29intentional the reason why is that in
- 00:16:32the beginning your character is poor and
- 00:16:35resource starved so if you start
- 00:16:37donating gear to weapons and Talons that
- 00:16:39aren't an early priority or even good at
- 00:16:42all you are taken away from resources
- 00:16:45you need to optimize your build Mark the
- 00:16:47best assault rifle and shotgun you have
- 00:16:49Mark as favor any Strikers that have Max
- 00:16:52weapon damage cores very high or Max
- 00:16:56crits headshot damage and skill damage
- 00:16:58damage Mark as favor any Palisades
- 00:17:00pieces with skill damage and high armor
- 00:17:03or crits Mark as favor any Palisades
- 00:17:06chess pieces with any of the key chess
- 00:17:09piece talents that we mentioned earlier
- 00:17:11Marquez favorite any brazzo picaro
- 00:17:14holsters whatever you got any of them
- 00:17:16move everything else to your stash okay
- 00:17:18now we're getting to the good
- 00:17:20part we're going to assemble these three
- 00:17:23builds and save them to your loadouts so
- 00:17:25first we're going to upgrade the
- 00:17:26countdown build in the end you will have
- 00:17:28four red damage cores and two blue armor
- 00:17:31cores you're going to prioritize weapon
- 00:17:33damage and crit chance on all the
- 00:17:35striker armor and crit chance on
- 00:17:37Palisades you're going to put on the
- 00:17:39picaro's holster and you're going to
- 00:17:41save this in your loadouts and name the
- 00:17:43build countdown and so no I know we
- 00:17:45haven't talked about it much but
- 00:17:46Strikers gives you 15% weapon handling
- 00:17:48and 15% rate of fire so really good this
- 00:17:50is the best DPS gear set in the game
- 00:17:51gamble is giving you 100 stacks of
- 00:17:54Amplified damage and then the chest
- 00:17:56piece pushes that to 200 so 200%
- 00:18:00potential Amplified damage and all you
- 00:18:02got to do is land shots to build stacks
- 00:18:04and then we got weapon damage core and I
- 00:18:06got crit damage and crit chance on my
- 00:18:08chest piece the backpack is the second
- 00:18:10piece and so that's going to unlock our
- 00:18:12weapon handling and I got weapon damage
- 00:18:14and crit chance and protection from
- 00:18:15elites on this and again just get it as
- 00:18:17close to this as possible this comes
- 00:18:19with the talent called risk management
- 00:18:21pushing the Amplified damage Stacks from
- 00:18:2465 to a whole 1% and then we have the
- 00:18:26gloves I got weapon damage and crit
- 00:18:29damage that's the best I have right now
- 00:18:30and then the knees weapon damage and
- 00:18:32crit chance all right for the palisad so
- 00:18:34this is our additional survivability it
- 00:18:36has armor I rolled crit chance on this
- 00:18:38and then crit damage and protection from
- 00:18:40Elites and then the holster is the
- 00:18:42picaro holster it's got weapon damage I
- 00:18:44rolled crit chance and it's got some
- 00:18:46armor on there it also comes with skill
- 00:18:48haste which is a little helpful but what
- 00:18:50we're after is that weapon damage armor
- 00:18:52combo a quick look at my revor hive I
- 00:18:54got crappy uh mods here so it just says
- 00:18:57whatever and then the she Shield put on
- 00:18:59just whatever you can and then for the
- 00:19:01assault rifle I'm running the carbine 7
- 00:19:03I got this pretty early it came nice and
- 00:19:05God roll like that so assault rifle
- 00:19:07damage Health damage damage to armor and
- 00:19:09then I put on measured again because
- 00:19:10measured doesn't require crits but you
- 00:19:12can also go Optimus but I like the
- 00:19:14additional RPMs so damage to armor nice
- 00:19:16reload for mods I got the 8X scope I got
- 00:19:18crit chance here and then I got
- 00:19:20stability and then I have plus 10 Rounds
- 00:19:24I need to get the bigger mag that gives
- 00:19:25us plus 20 rounds so little bit of ammo
- 00:19:28Miss there and for my shotgun is really
- 00:19:30crappy actually but I'm just using it
- 00:19:32for stack so it's just fast and it's got
- 00:19:34a 20 round bag that's all I need I'm
- 00:19:36running survival list it should be all
- 00:19:37unlocked for you too at this stage and
- 00:19:39then we're going to have the protection
- 00:19:41from Elites and then I have assault
- 00:19:43rifle selected here otherwise everything
- 00:19:45else is just filled out as you would
- 00:19:47want it to be and then I'll show you
- 00:19:48stats but they're not going to really
- 00:19:49matter at this point you're just going
- 00:19:51to take what you can get but we have 27%
- 00:19:53crit chance and 58% crit hit damage okay
- 00:19:55so next let's take a look at your second
- 00:19:57build this one's really important really
- 00:19:58fun and very effective you're probably
- 00:20:00going to hold on to this build forever
- 00:20:02now remember my specialization isn't
- 00:20:04correct I haven't unlocked mine so this
- 00:20:06is your skill build for solo heroic or
- 00:20:08heroic and legendary group it'll work
- 00:20:10for just about anything so in the end
- 00:20:12you will have six skill tiers five on
- 00:20:14the build and one from the
- 00:20:15specialization and then you're going to
- 00:20:17have the one armor core so you're going
- 00:20:18to want yours with technician just
- 00:20:20remember I didn't want to buy the yearr
- 00:20:22pass for my scratch account and again
- 00:20:24it's up to you but you do want
- 00:20:25technician here so none of the following
- 00:20:27gear pieces can overlap with the other
- 00:20:29builds because you're going to want to
- 00:20:31add skill tiers to all of these and that
- 00:20:33will mess up your other builds and it'll
- 00:20:35make it difficult to swap back and forth
- 00:20:37and you don't have the resources to keep
- 00:20:38changing things so you want four pieces
- 00:20:40of Striker with skill damage or crit
- 00:20:42chance already on the piece ideally
- 00:20:44skill damage you're going to add skill
- 00:20:46tiers to all the pieces but the chest
- 00:20:48piece and you want Palisades on your
- 00:20:50chest piece so you don't have to worry
- 00:20:52about getting another 100 stacks of
- 00:20:54Striker ideally you want kinetic
- 00:20:56momentum as the talent and and armor is
- 00:20:58okay here so your stats on the chest are
- 00:21:01ideally crit chance or skill damage or
- 00:21:04something like that but you're fine if
- 00:21:05you don't have the right secondary stats
- 00:21:08on the chest it's most important you get
- 00:21:09the brand and the talent right as well
- 00:21:12as the core so you're going to put on
- 00:21:14the picaro's holster and you want to
- 00:21:16make sure it has a skill tier ideally
- 00:21:18you have skill damage as one of the
- 00:21:20secondary stats on it and anything red
- 00:21:21there is a good backup option so you're
- 00:21:23going to put the capacitor exotic as
- 00:21:25your main weapon here any shotgun for
- 00:21:28your backup so you're going to want to
- 00:21:29equip the striker drone just make sure
- 00:21:31you have the best mods here which I
- 00:21:33don't have really any and then also the
- 00:21:35attack turret so the six skill tiers are
- 00:21:38going to give you a lot of power to your
- 00:21:40skills and then you're going to have 60%
- 00:21:43skill damage coming from the capacitor
- 00:21:45on stack and those skill tiers are also
- 00:21:47powering your capacitor as well as
- 00:21:49Striker with 100% of Amplified damage
- 00:21:53and faster rate of fire and weapon
- 00:21:55handling so your weapon is going to be
- 00:21:56very strong and a kinetic momentum is
- 00:21:58giving 15% more skill damage to each of
- 00:22:01your skills so save this to your
- 00:22:03loadouts and name it skill build so the
- 00:22:05third build is going to be your general
- 00:22:07DPS build and I recommend it usually for
- 00:22:09the most difficult content in the game
- 00:22:11like legendary but the skill build will
- 00:22:13also work for legendary so use whatever
- 00:22:15is in your comfort zone but having a
- 00:22:17good DPS build is something that you're
- 00:22:18going to need and there's some choices
- 00:22:20here so I'm offering one of the
- 00:22:22strongest builds that you can have in
- 00:22:24the game early on and then I'll give you
- 00:22:26a couple of options from there so it's
- 00:22:27the same as assault rifle with measured
- 00:22:29damage to armor all the mods are the
- 00:22:31same as the countdown build and I'm
- 00:22:32running that 8X scope but it's more
- 00:22:34important on this build of course we
- 00:22:36have four pieces of Striker but we're
- 00:22:37not running the Striker's chest now now
- 00:22:39we're running the palisad chest that we
- 00:22:41farmed from countdown and that's giv us
- 00:22:4310% armor on kill and then I'm running
- 00:22:45armor armor regen weapon handling and
- 00:22:48crit chance the talent is called focused
- 00:22:50and so this is giving us 5% total weapon
- 00:22:54damage for every second we're aiming
- 00:22:56down scope up to 50% % that's one of the
- 00:22:59strongest talents in the game even for
- 00:23:01assault rifles otherwise you want crit
- 00:23:03damage and crit chance for your stats a
- 00:23:05quick side note here is that there is a
- 00:23:08perfect version of this chest piece
- 00:23:10called the prisin example there's a good
- 00:23:12chance you can get this on day one from
- 00:23:15countdown I did and so even though it's
- 00:23:18for marksman rifles it's still an even
- 00:23:21better chest at putting out even more
- 00:23:23damage but I'm not running it here or
- 00:23:25recommending it because I don't want you
- 00:23:27to do any additional farming okay if you
- 00:23:29get that then you're going to want to
- 00:23:30put Palisades as your holster your
- 00:23:33alternate for the chest piece if you're
- 00:23:35very uncomfortable with being in scope
- 00:23:38then just man up we're talking 30%
- 00:23:40headshot damage for crying out loud go
- 00:23:42ahead and run obliterate and just try to
- 00:23:44put as many crits as you can on your
- 00:23:47build including the mods up here okay
- 00:23:49for the holster I'm running another
- 00:23:51pararo holster so just like we had on
- 00:23:53the other build except this one's going
- 00:23:55to have crit chance on it so crit chance
- 00:23:56and armor so so blue and red is what you
- 00:23:58want this to look like and then Strikers
- 00:24:00what you would expect it to be these are
- 00:24:02the same pieces we were running earlier
- 00:24:03so I got weapon damage and crit chance
- 00:24:05weapon damage and crit chance and both
- 00:24:07of these have protection from Elites and
- 00:24:09then weapon damage and crit damage and
- 00:24:12weapon damage and crit chance now for
- 00:24:14General content you can go ahead and
- 00:24:16elect to put crit mods here instead of
- 00:24:18protection from Elites but as a new
- 00:24:21player having a little bit of extra
- 00:24:22protection against those Elites isn't a
- 00:24:24bad thing plus I'm running survivalist
- 00:24:26so that's also adding to it
- 00:24:28But ultimately I don't recommend that
- 00:24:30you run survivalist for General gameplay
- 00:24:33what I recommend you put here for Heroic
- 00:24:35and legendary content is Gunner Gunner
- 00:24:38is going to help you with ammo but also
- 00:24:40with armor on kill now again because I
- 00:24:43didn't buy the year one pass for an
- 00:24:46account that I'm going to basically blow
- 00:24:48up I don't have this unlocked Jesus man
- 00:24:52if I would have known you were going to
- 00:24:53repeat that statement this many times I
- 00:24:56would have just bought it for you what's
- 00:24:58another tourist's kidney my girl Cassie
- 00:25:00is always good to buy but as you can see
- 00:25:02here you're going to get 10% armor on
- 00:25:04kill so make sure you equip it early
- 00:25:07save it with it equipped and that will
- 00:25:09give this build 20% armor on kill so
- 00:25:12even better than what I'm showing you
- 00:25:14here and now for skills you're going to
- 00:25:15want to run the revivor hive again that
- 00:25:17way when you get in trouble you get
- 00:25:18picked up and then the Crusader shield
- 00:25:21and I'll show you the stats so I have
- 00:25:22basically 34% crit chance which isn't
- 00:25:24horrible and then 40% crit damage so if
- 00:25:27you did want to put on obliterate this
- 00:25:28will probably be about 55% more crit
- 00:25:31Chance by swapping out all your mods on
- 00:25:33both your weapon and your gear so either
- 00:25:35way go with what you prefer just know
- 00:25:37that this is a pretty strong build and
- 00:25:39super helpful to be in scope in
- 00:25:40legendary cuz those enemies play quite
- 00:25:42deep okay so you're going to save this
- 00:25:44build to your Loadout and just name it
- 00:25:45DPS okay now it's time to roll up all
- 00:25:48the stats on the builds all three of
- 00:25:51them so this is the final upgrade push
- 00:25:54at all the marked gear for donation in
- 00:25:57your stash to your library when you do
- 00:26:00this it will destroy the item so don't
- 00:26:03load any unnecessary stats or talents
- 00:26:07that aren't critical to these three
- 00:26:09builds remember you have the reference
- 00:26:12list and the exterior gear is critical
- 00:26:14for your resources at a time when you
- 00:26:16are very poor and don't accidentally
- 00:26:18donate any of your equipped gear marking
- 00:26:21it favorite helps prevent this try not
- 00:26:24to donate any named items unless they
- 00:26:26have one of the key stats mentioned in
- 00:26:29the list and are Max rolled or very
- 00:26:32close to Max rolled once all your max
- 00:26:34stats and talents are added to your
- 00:26:35library go through each of your three
- 00:26:38builds and upgrade the stats using the
- 00:26:40tinkering Station menu I created a whole
- 00:26:44guide for this so I recommend watching
- 00:26:46that before you take this step if the
- 00:26:48piece has the correct minor attribute
- 00:26:50and a low core stat then prioritize the
- 00:26:52core if it has a max core stat and the
- 00:26:55wrong minor attribute change the minor
- 00:26:58to the correct stat if both stats are
- 00:27:01correct and both are low prioritize the
- 00:27:04core by maximizing it for the skill
- 00:27:06build the most vital thing is that each
- 00:27:09piece has a skill tier except for the
- 00:27:12chest tinkering is a heavy cost on the
- 00:27:14e- credits so it's possible to run out
- 00:27:16of another material like steel or
- 00:27:18polycarbonate or another basic so use
- 00:27:20your watch and caches but don't tap into
- 00:27:23the junk gear if you can prevent it if
- 00:27:25for any reason your resources tight
- 00:27:28prioritize the skill build first you're
- 00:27:30already good to go for countdown and the
- 00:27:32skill build will work for solo and
- 00:27:34legendary if you're limited to choosing
- 00:27:36just one if you need more resources at
- 00:27:38this point in time here is a resource
- 00:27:40run that will only cost you a couple of
- 00:27:43minutes you're going to fast travel to
- 00:27:44the South dark Zone entrance jog over to
- 00:27:46this building and open everything in
- 00:27:48sight just follow the path there's no
- 00:27:50real wrong turn here then go to the
- 00:27:52circle safe house and follow my path
- 00:27:54here through to the solar farm this this
- 00:27:57simple routine will net you a ton of
- 00:27:59resources and gear and I suggest doing
- 00:28:01it daily as a noob after that you should
- 00:28:04have everything you need to kick but
- 00:28:07except for skill the human forgot to
- 00:28:09mention you need
- 00:28:11skill that's it simple right it's the
- 00:28:13most direct path to be able to run with
- 00:28:15the big dogs and you are ready to take
- 00:28:17on legendary with a team so you can get
- 00:28:19one more exotic the sixth exotic let's
- 00:28:22put it to the test I did a random
- 00:28:23matchmaking annoyingly the guy had
- 00:28:25Special ammo on out of all the Ives if
- 00:28:28the build is good it needs to be able to
- 00:28:29take on all directives I want to let you
- 00:28:31know that overall feeding your library
- 00:28:33is one of the most important things you
- 00:28:35can do early on so countdown is going to
- 00:28:37be a big early Focus for you you are
- 00:28:39also going to continue the countdown
- 00:28:41routine to perfect these three builds
- 00:28:43including farming for better gear mods
- 00:28:46and more exotic caches load of crap
- 00:28:48there's only one build you need in the
- 00:28:50division 2 you also need to continue
- 00:28:52your blueprints grind by completing
- 00:28:54level three control points and higher
- 00:28:56you need to do this this on at least
- 00:28:58challenging difficulty but the builds
- 00:29:00are set up so that you can take on
- 00:29:02heroic difficulty so just go with
- 00:29:04whatever is best for you and this
- 00:29:05unlocks just more than weapon
- 00:29:07attachments it's also going to unlock
- 00:29:08blueprints for resources critical to
- 00:29:10optimizing your gear and as a side
- 00:29:13benefit you will be getting more basic
- 00:29:15resources that are vital for tinkering
- 00:29:18so you can do countdown to complete your
- 00:29:20library upgrade the three builds get
- 00:29:22exotic caches and gear mods you're going
- 00:29:24to do control points for blueprints and
- 00:29:26then you're going to do daily and weekly
- 00:29:28projects for XP Exotics and resources
- 00:29:30and bounties for E credits this video
- 00:29:33will help break down The Daily and
- 00:29:34weekly projects for you so the legendary
- 00:29:37day one run with the build we made on
- 00:29:40day one in less than 3 hours I took top
- 00:29:43kills and damage for the team and got my
- 00:29:46exotic reward it didn't go and notice
- 00:29:48that the small watch Dude took the spot
- 00:29:50as well of course I'm not actually new
- 00:29:52and much of this is easier for me
- 00:29:54because I have done these missions many
- 00:29:56times and you will too and get better
- 00:29:58and better at them but for now know
- 00:30:00confidently you have the right tools on
- 00:30:03day one to explore and eventually Master
- 00:30:06the game whatever your watch size
- 00:30:09is if you made it this far in the video
- 00:30:11You're now ready to receive the critical
- 00:30:13details for early in-game success but
- 00:30:16listen closely okay head over to annaya
- 00:30:19and purchase the stash and resource
- 00:30:22sharing capabilities this whole time we
- 00:30:25have been preparing for a second care
- 00:30:27character to be Godly in New York now
- 00:30:30create a second character and boost it
- 00:30:32to New York and get to The Haven base of
- 00:30:34operations post haste this should take
- 00:30:36around 15 minutes skip through the
- 00:30:39stories don't worry about resources just
- 00:30:41get there all that junk we've been
- 00:30:42putting in your stash move it to your
- 00:30:44newly created characters inventory as
- 00:30:46you now continue to farm countdown with
- 00:30:49your main character continue to offload
- 00:30:52all junk into your stash between the
- 00:30:55stash and your second character you will
- 00:30:57be able to hold 450 items by doing this
- 00:31:01now you are putting yourself in the
- 00:31:02position to create three additional
- 00:31:04characters fast and easy using a brand
- 00:31:07new updated method for 2024 we call
- 00:31:10these extra characters mules and use
- 00:31:12them for additional resources more
- 00:31:15Exotics and stash space before we didn't
- 00:31:17do this until we had a sizeable watch
- 00:31:19but now we recommend you do this as
- 00:31:22early as possible but this subject needs
- 00:31:24a whole additional video so just know
- 00:31:27your new character is going to be using
- 00:31:29those junk pieces for resources to turn
- 00:31:32themselves into Gods from the get-go so
- 00:31:34they can burn through New York to get
- 00:31:36their watch fast and easy without
- 00:31:38needing another player to carry them
- 00:31:40through which is the old way to do it
- 00:31:42quickly for example named items that we
- 00:31:44put in there sell for about double than
- 00:31:47that of high-end gear next watch this
- 00:31:49video and make this XP farm build once
- 00:31:52you have the build start XP farming
- 00:31:54every week to get your watch to level
- 00:31:561,000 and because you're going to have
- 00:31:58more characters soon XP farming on your
- 00:32:01main opens up more passive income from
- 00:32:03the watch every fifth HD level on your
- 00:32:07main character is giving you a scavenge
- 00:32:09point on your other characters to buy
- 00:32:12resources and you're sharing those
- 00:32:14resources back to your main character to
- 00:32:16use this way you can create quadruple
- 00:32:20the scavenge points to optimize your
- 00:32:22three key builds and Beyond so now I'm
- 00:32:25going to load you up with a punch list
- 00:32:26on what you need to do next first these
