I'm really proud of this, and no online friends atm...

My new sniper....and she's not even maxed yet for crit damage *tear of joy*

Sorry for a bragging post, but I was flipping out and had to show someone....

Very sexy damage there, that the rifle from the Phoenix credit vendor?

 

[ADK-Joker]

Very nice, a pic of the attachments?

yes sir...with zero skills active...hunting for a shot with smart cover, pulse, and tac link active now

 

[Xeromaus]

unfortunately it only gets two...muzzle and optic.

running 31.50%stability/31%crit damage muzzle brake and 22% headshot/22%optimal range CQBSS scope atm. They could use some work, but I'm just trying for max buff atm, crafting more after.

 

[Xeromaus]

well, it seems that building gear for pulse crit damage % loses me enough firearms that the results are virtually identical, though my firearms gear has a slight edge. With Tac link active, the best I got was:

When the server starts behaving again, I'll try another group run to stack pulse and smart cover on top of tac link...but right now things are too glitchy. Tried it a few minutes ago and fell through the floor before I could shoot....

....Though after factoring in player versus player damage reduction and 65% armor mitigation for pvp...thats still a one shot to anyone under 120k health

Damn that's pretty nice. Did you have to sacrifice stamina for the high firearms, though?

Absolutely. The build is nearly 4k firearms, but stamina was literally all I gave up for it (I mainly use stun skills in pve and pvp, so I never bother with electronics, unless I'm pushing the BFB sticky as close to max as I can for pvp). Armor still sits above 50% mitigation, crit chance is between 31% and 60% on every weapon, etc. It's mainly a PvE build, but I did take it through a short lap in the DZ to try out the rifle....there's 4 players that almost definitely think I hack now (on ps4 at that), as they died instantly, saw my name as their killer, and realized nothing at all was near them.

Edit: Forgot to mention it...but the rifle came with the Proficient talent, giving it a 46% bonus to crit chance when fired out of combat...so as long as I shoot first and hit, the target is either dead or on it's last legs.

Better run challenge modes quickly...only 139 hours left to buy it!

For the record, it does suffer from motion sickness...if you're on the move and aiming without being scoped in, the reticle widens quickly.

The dailies are gone though, can we still get Phoenix credits from challenging missions even though it's not the daily?

oh hell yeah man...30 per run, always.

 

[Xeromaus]

...and just a heads up...the advanced weaponry vendor currently has a purple SOCOM M1A rifle in stock for just under 60k credits...talents suck (commanding and talented), but the stats are pretty decent (equatable to the one I'm using in +headshot , roughly 33% less base damage, 6 times the fire rate, double the mag, slightly less range, though mine has an optimal range mod on it, and more slots to build on [mag, underbarrel, muzzle, scope]). It's not a one hit killer, but for a credit purchase it's nice.

Wait, they're pulling the named sniper from the DZ vendor?

lol you would think I would know this running the division forums and all  :laughing:

 

[Xeromaus]

No. There's a sniper available at the base of operations at the special vendor (the one that sells blueprints for phoenix credits.)

Which one, not the police mk17 I hope? 

If so, I've got a purp first wave m1a that smokes the 2 police mk17s I've built...

Wow, that is sick.  One day, I'll hit like that. I'm just too lazy.
