re: **The Division** All Platforms Extravaganza

I got to lvl 30 this weekend. Currently 22 in DZ rank.
I have mostly lvl 30 purple gear and 2 purple lvl 30 weapons (ACR and a SMG). I had a high end magnum drop so I'm using that as a side arm until I can craft the Damascus.
I'll be running DZ non stop until I get to rank 30 DZ, buy DZ gear and then start doing the challenge missions to farm for high end crafting schems and loot.
God I love being lvl 30 finally.

I'm 28 right now and the grind to 30 is going to be rough. I've got a decent amount of level 30 gear so far, but it has all been worse than my stuff I have right now 
Purple police M4 I have is awesome right now. One of the more stable AR's i've used so far.

Side missions in the higher end zones should get you there.
I went from 28.5 to 30 solo in about an hour of hard grinding the 2nd and 3rd to last zones' side missions and encounters
My lvl 30 ACR has me a 73k DPS. Pretty nice. My SMG is 63k but it kills even fast when up close

Damn
M4 is doing 49K right now. I"ve got a 28 blue marksman, covert srs I think, doing 49K as well, but has a great single bullet dmg. Was doing some 150K hits on guys, felt real great. Then I saw the gif i posted above of a guy doing 2M + dmg, now I'm sad

It really depends on what bonuses your gear has and stat distribution.
I have most points in kills and stamina to fill a support role (first aid and smart cover skills) but a few pieces of my gear have +assault rifle damage and all my mods are purple firearms mods boosting my DPS.
Posted on 3/21/16 at 9:18 am to ShoeBang
Yep. None of my gear is level 30 yet either, so that will help. The mods are where it is really lacking though. Most are all blues lvl 18-25 or so. I finally got a purple weapon mod drop, but it was worse than the blues I had

I have a purple acr from the crypt with balanced talent. It's nice.
The same vendor is selling a purple black market ak47 with higher per bullet damage until tonight's reset. I grabbed it. Pretty sick.
Was up over 100k dps in stats screen but decided I needed more stam and adjusted.
Have full lvl 30 superior gear after farming dz with a group. Pretty effecient. Now time to grind HE and PxCs.

If you play mostly solo, make sure you even out the stats as much as possible with a little more in 1-2 categories than the other 1. When I run solo, I run first aid with the flame turret. When I get in a group I keep first aid or use the support station and smart cover. Get next to a buddy and pop smart cover and support station and you can hold a position for quite a while against yellows (unless they are shotgun rushers)

I'm usually running with one of my buddies, but I do matchmaking as much as I can. Right now I"m approx 49K firearm, like 46K health and like 8K skill, with the attributes being like 1400, 1200, and 800 respectively.
My perks are the support station and smart cover. I've got one mod that extends smart cover dmg and another that extends support station duration. It is a pretty sweet set up. I've got talents set up to extend skills when I get a kill with one active. My smart cover almost doesn't go away.

Great support setup, but I would drop some from firearms and put it into skills to make the skills better once you get some higher damage weapons. Smart cover is almost useless in the DZ when with a group because you are always on the move but in missions it is clutch. Same with support station.
when with a fast moving group in the DZ I go first aid and something with some crowd control like flashbang sticky bomb or flame turret

Yea, I'm trying to build up the skill some, but haven't gotten great gear for it. It has been forever since I've seen any that will help it without drastically reducing firearm or health (I mean like increasing skill like 2-3K and dropping one of the others like 10K). Just not worth it.
We haven't done a whole lot of DZ yet besides randomly running around. I think I'm like lvl 15 or so, so i haven't done a whole lot of customizing my character to fit it yet. I figured I get my max setup for the missions, then work on DZ.

I went he opposite way. I am trying to get my DZ rank to 30 so I can buy the gear with DZ dollars and then start on challenge missions. DZ vendor gear is better than most of what you find in the around the non DZ vendors. After I do that I will start doing more challenge missions and get that sweet sweet yellow gear

Patch notes are out.
More phoenix credits and better loot in DZ
Less penalties for dying in DZ as Rogue or non-hostile
More high end division tech
Bullet King exploit fixed
Nothing surprising but still solid improvements. Will have to see the actual numbers
Better loot from challenge mode named bosses

I need to get in and get to a higher rank before hit squads start roaming around. I feel they will make it too easy and not risky enough to go rogue soon. Camped extraction zones everywhere is my prediction.
As long as the loot in challenge missions is up to par with DZ it'll be ok though
Posted on 3/21/16 at 11:16 am to ShoeBang
Yeah there will certainly be more Rogue hit squads
But I bet they stay in dz05 and dz06 due to the division tech and bosses
Ah who am I kidding..they will be camping the dz01 door. Fun

It's alright, if we hold hands they can't hurt us in the DZ
Posted on 3/21/16 at 12:26 pm to sbr2
You know how you avoid getting hurt in the DZ? By not going in the DZ.
Posted on 3/21/16 at 1:04 pm to sbr2
I will hide behind your ballistic shield
Posted on 3/21/16 at 1:19 pm to jefforize
This seems like a bad idea to lower the penalty. I tried to go in for a bit last night and a group was just camping by the door so I had to go around to another entrance.
