Can make the build much better with different gloves kind of a waist having that rifle dmg with no rifle. Dennis Dasilva says: June 12, 2019 at 7:08 am. If you had asked anyone, including Mike Bithell, whether the creator of Thomas Was Alone would be making a John Wick video game, then I John Wick Hex is a new XCOM-like strategy game from Bithell Games that attempts to recreate the gun-fu of the movies combined with a unique visual style.
LMG/SMG All Content Build — 3 pieces D&H, 1 piece Gila, 1 piece Petrov or Sokolov (personal preference if you want LMG damage or SMG damage more), 1 piece Wyvern
Sets/Talents:
Mask – D&H -> Good stats (Crit Chance, Damage to Elites for PVE)
Backpack – Wyvern -> Safeguard 1st priority or Efficient 2nd + Hardened
Best Lmg Damage Build Division 2
Body Armor – Petrov/Sokolov -> Unstoppable Force + Hardened
Gloves – Gila -> Clutch 1st priority or Obliterate 2nd
Holster – D&H -> Crit Chance
Kneepads – D&H -> **Cloaked 1st priority or Patience 2nd
Weapons:
LMG – M60 w/ Strained -> Tactical Small Pouch magazine
SMG – Vector .45 or your best SMG w/ Strained + Osprey 45 Suppressor if using .45 SMG + Crit Chance Laser Pointer + Extended Mag if needed
(Alternative is to use Exotic Chatterbox if you have farmed that up, works great with the build)
Stat Priority/Requirements:
Crit chance is top priority along with armor/armor %
Requirements -> 7 or more blue, 5 or less red, 5 or less yellow (Plan accordingly with gear and mods)
Skills:
Honestly this is really personal preference and you should tailor your skills to the type of content you are doing. I personally like the healing chem launcher + reviver hive or the fixer drone for sustain.
Specialization: Demolitionist
Demolitionist Talents that help the most: 15% LMG Damage, 15% SMG Damage, When armor is reduced to 0 refills main weapon ammo (amazing synergy for so many reasons, will explain below), Armor kits boost weapon handling for 100% for 15 seconds, + many other useful perks. Sharpshooter has some very useful perks too, however, Demo has better synergies plus who doesn’t love explosives?
Build Explanation:
There may be slight variations of this that could be better such as the AR/SMG variant. This is just my personal opinion on something that works incredibly well for ALL content. The overall idea of this build is to do incredible LMG damage for most PVE content or hitting targets at medium range and insane SMG burst for up close targets or specifically PVP in the darkzone. On top of having high damage the build is easily capable of reaching over 200k armor so it is by no means a glass cannon build and can handle the hardest content. The build has a big focus on making you incredibly strong as your armor depletes and especially as it hits 0, even though we aren’t using Berserker.
You want to primarily focus on crit chance where you can (this can be tough with a 5 red max for the build) because we will be using Strained on both weapons unless you are using the Chatterbox. You also want to focus on getting your armor as high as possible via stats and Hardened talents + the Gila piece to help with the Unstoppable Force talent. (Note: We don’t use Berserker because that does not benefit your LMG damage at all. You could substitute the Berserker talent in and switch the LMG to an AR, but this won’t synergize quite as well with Demolitionist plus LMG’s are kind of OP at the moment.)
Talents/Perks/Attachment Explanations:
Strained – Insane crit damage increase as armor depletes and is the primary reason we stack crit chance.
Unstoppable Force – Not as much damage as Bersker, however, it benefits both the LMG and SMG and it synergizes well with our armor stacking.
Clutch – This talent can be very strong in a crit build and especially when using an SMG that has crit attachments. This is a talent that is primarily aimed at winning 1v1 duels in the dark zone as you will sustain better.
Cloaked – This talent doesn’t give a great explanation as to what it does. When your armor hits 0 this actually stuns everyone around you for 2-3 seconds. This is incredibly strong in this build as when you hit 0 armor you will be doing insane damage with Strained and any threats around you won’t be able to fight back. This is also very useful in PVP. I haven’t tested the range but I would guess about 20 yards, so close range.
**Patience instead of Cloaked: Patience is a great alternative talent to use on knee pads as it’s healing will jump up with safeguard. If you are having trouble staying alive I recommend trying this out as it is a very strong talent right now. Overall the build synergizes with Cloaked much better because this is a close to medium ranged build. There are going to be plenty of times where you get flanked or you get pushed and cloaked will save your life. Not to mention you shouldn’t have trouble with healing if you use chem launcher combined with safeguard. In PVP Cloaked is the better talent by far due to the very low time to kill.
Safeguard – Not a lot of great talent options hear but this is more for PVE. You will be killing lots of targets and this will make your chem launcher and repair drone sustain really well.
Demo Talent -> When armor hits 0 magazine is autofilled. This is amazing because you could have 5 rounds left in your LMG or SMG and the second your armor hits 0 it refills to max instantly. There is no internal cooldown on this it seems so you can do this over and over as you heal up and go down.
LMG Magazine – This isn’t a necessity, I just prefer to reload faster and have 85 rounds instead of 100 rounds with a slow reload.
Imagine in a 1v1 in PVP, as your armor hits 0 you are doing 200% more crit damage on a high crit build, you stun everyone around you, and your magazine automatically refills back to full so you can keep laying into them plus every crit is healing you and regenerating armor!
Sorry for the incredibly long/detailed explanation. I just wanted to be thorough so you could understand how the build works and why it synergizes so well. As stated above, there are obviously many ways you can tweak/adapt this build. I am not claiming that this build is the best or is perfect, this is just what has worked really well for me. Comment below if you like it or if you have any questions/suggestions!
Here is a link to a helpful source that can show you Weapons/Gear/Talents etc.. if you want to see specifics on any of these talents I suggested (I did not create this):
Perhaps more so than many of the other looter shooters on the market, The Division 2 gives players deep and complex options to construct builds that will serve specific roles that a player is trying to achieve. As players reach the endgame, they'll find countless ways to combine different builds based on the three Specializations, skills, weapon types, or capitalizing on specific exotics.
Game Rant suggested some of the best Division 2 PvP builds already, and now it is time to look at the best PvE builds currently in the game.
1. DPS and Survivability Solo Build
Many players who may be playing The Division 2 solo will definitely want to take a look at this build from YouTuber LethalvD. The strengths of the build are on damage and survivability, which obviously benefits solo players who don't have a squad to revive them and have to take down enemies on their own.
Weapons:
Assault Rifle or LMG
- Focus on Critical Hit and Damage to Elites mods.
- Talents: Strained, Allegro, Protected Reload
Skills:
- Reviver Hive
- Fixer Drone
Specialization: Survivalist
2. Unlimited Ammo LMG Build
This build comes from YouTuber Mtashed and focuses on using an LMG and, if players can focus fire specific areas of higher-tiered enemies, it will give them the ability to fire nearly unlimited ammo out of their LMG by combining it with the Liberty exotic sidearm.
Weapons:
Classic M60 or other LMG
- Talents: Strained, Allegro, Protected Reload
Liberty Sidearm
This build revolves around the Liberty exotic sidearm and its passive perk 'Independence,' which when holstered refills 20% of the current weapon's magazine when destroying weakpoints on enemies. So as long as players use their LMG and hit weakpoints on elite enemies, the magazine will continue to be refilled.
Equipment:
- Airaldi Holdings gloves with Obliterate talent and Accuracy increase
- Wyvern Wear knee pads with Braced Perk
- Douglas & Holding holster with Critical Hit Damage and Precise talent
Skills:
- Reviver Hive
- Fixer Drone
Specialization: Demolitionist
- Onslaught
- Crisis Response
- X-Stat Armor Kit
3. Close Quarters SMG Build
This last PvE build comes from InigoMontoyaTV, and is focused on the use of SMGs. Once again it will deal out high damage and increase the player's survivability considering that players will need to be up close and in the fray to get the most out of the dual-SMG loadout. This works well in both solo and group play.
Weapons:
Vector SMG
Best Dmg Lmg Build Division 2 Pvp
- Talents: Close & Personal and Allegro
The Chatterbox Exotic SMG
Equipment
Armor talents to be looking for with this build are Clutch (gives armor and health when getting critical hits) and Safeguard (killing an enemy gives 150% bonus to repairing and healing effects for 20 seconds), which will synergize together to give strong healing and survivability. Because of the focus on SMGs in this build, getting equipment that gives a damage increase to SMGs or Critical Hit Chance is definitely a must-have.
- Wyvern Wear knee pads with Braced Perk
- Douglas & Holding holster with Critical Hit Damage and Precise talent
Skills:
- Reinforcer Chem Launcher
- Reviver Hive
Specialization: Demolitionist
- Spray and Pray
- Crisis Response
These are just some of the options that players have in The Division 2. As World Tier 5 unlocks and the game's first 8-player raid is released, there will undoubtedly be more gear earned in those activities for players to further optimize their builds.
The Division 2 is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
