The Division Best Solo Skill & Talent Build | Best of Builds 

I really love your videos about The Division. Top quality. Keep them coming.

Awesome video. Thanks! I been having trouble understanding all the stats and how the play together. This helped a lot.

Thanks Arekkz! Great guides as always! This was basically what I was speccing my character in.

This channel has helped me SO much the last few days with understanding the game more. You're doin a solid job, keep it up.

This is pretty much my build to the letter. Always good to see when someone else feels the same and you aren't just deluding yourself.

Thx man i was looking foward to this!

Definitely helpful! Keep up the great work!

this is fantastic. cant wait to try this out! thanks

Solid Guide Arekkz. Thanks :) Love the videos!

Thats alot of dps for so low firearms and high hp, whats your dps on the marksman? Would be nice if you went more in to detail with your gear, like screenshots of them so we can see the stats. Great video as always, keep it up!

Just what I needed. Thank you, your videos really help me.

great video thanks I've just got the division and I'm a solo player and now I have a good idea how to create a player to go through the game! ☺

Important caveat on the health station vs first aid - health station does NOT revive you ever if you are solo and not in the Dark Zone. There is no down state in regular pve solo meaning you can't crawl anywhere. Also, even if you drop a support station and die in the green circle, it will not revive you in solo pve - no matter what mod you put on it. So, I find first aid much, much better than support for say regular level grinding, solo, non-dark zone pve. Also, smart cover with the renewal mod works extremely well since it gives you the trifecta of health regen, skill cool down, and DPS buff. Also, while smart cover does relatively small healing, often this is enough to get you over that second box so you get back to full on your own, and in general the small amount combined with added defense is surprisingly effective - on the other hand, I find much of the healing work work the support station does is wasted bc I am at full health or need to move and do not want to wait to heal. So, I use Smart cover + first aid for most PVE solo encounters and when you face guys like machine gun fatties, switch to zapper so you can flank hit bullet box etc.

Thank you for this guide. Only just got the game and playing solo until i get to grips with things. Coming from WoW and Final Fantasy online this is a different animal with a lot to take in and this has helped a lot. Subbed :)

just got yourself a subscriber! Thanks for the build up!

YES FINALLY I HAVE BEEN WAITING

Nice breakdown, thanks!

Awesome help. Thank you for your videos.

As a new 30 as of last night I just stumbled on your videos and find them very helpful. Keep up the good work and have a sub and a like.

Tried out the support station/ammo cache set-up yesterday and it works a treat, especially against snipers.

Great Video! I will defiantly be using this build when I am not playing with my best friend haha.

Time for the theory crafting! :D Can't wait. I think I got a solid healer build up soon, unfortunately a little low on the DPS side but should get the healing on point. I also got a solid DPS build I'm using right now to mow over content for the time being. Can't wait to go extreme in depth with creating builds. I feel like a lot of people are not understanding the potential in their characters with armour and what not. It'll be good to have a popular youtuber showing some builds so players get an idea.

Thank you! This is really helpful. You got a 👍🏼

thank you arekkz, great info

Thanks. Good vid. Very helpful indeed. Thumbs up for that.

Thank you for the Solo Build I was thinking get The Division tomorrow!

Amazing build helps so much solo thanks for the build👍🏻

Awesome this helped me alot! :)

Thanks for this! I've been trying to figure out what to use ever since I hit 30!

Your videos KICK ASS man! So helpful as I struggled at first with this game but now that I just level upped to 30, it is one of my faves ! Cheers and keep killin it!

Thank you again. I was able to notice the difference right a way.

Thanks for posting this, man. The game still confuses me (almost too many options) but this helped!

Thank you for recommending these builds. Maybe putting down some of my thoughts later.

Best guide ever, thx !

I find that tech support (increase skill duration per kill w/ a skill activated) is better for the long standoffs that comes with playing solo than the overheal adrenaline provides. If used correctly, by which I mean focusing the lower health enemies (reds and purples), you can hold both a turret and support station up until you get late fight with only the yellows and bosses.

New sub and I wish I could click like more but thank you for actually explaining your reasoning behind builds

Thanks Some great tips and advice there.

thanks again for the video man

How has Ubisoft not hired you lol these edits and your knowledge towards the game is very professional. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 great video

With my marksman rifle as often a primary, I like the talent that gives me 30 rounds when I score a pistol kill. Since the ammo that you carry is far less, having the ability to add 30 rounds for making a quick change to the pistol and finishing a target for a 30 round boot has been essential between restock points.

You may have to split some into electronics due to how the damage focus weapon perks often require electronics. The High stamina will already cover the perks that provide HP regens from Weapon Perks.

Thank you so much for this info sir.

I agree with most, although I currently use a rifle instead of smg, modded for hip fire when needed.

thank you, extremely helpful :) thumbs up...

very nice guide!

Good build man and stepped into DZ06 for the first time as a character level of 29. I use for my fourth talent the Steady Hand as I use cover a lot in PvE and PvP fights. I also use a Tactical ACR as I am pretty bad with a marksmen rifle, except maybe the M1A because it is semi-auto. Hoping there is a high-end of that model.

This is an Awesome kit Thanks so much! helped me a lot love your content. Next time try do appearance ideas!

I had something close to this build(fire rather than just stun to cause a little damage) switched it out for another build that was stated to be the"best solo tank build" and I kept going down all the time I'm switching back to this build it seemed to work much better.

Thanks for the help I'm getting the Division for my birthday next month.

I have been using the turret with the active sensor on and the tactical link signature skill and i think that tactical link also boost the damage of the turret, so I use it on named enemies and it's pretty good.

My advice: if you decide on going with a Turret as your second skill, I'm basically a solo player 100% of the time (almost done the campaign, only ran a mission in co-op twice) and I've been running with Tech Support. My turret will last until the end of basically any fight, so long as it isn't destroyed. I'm excited to hit 25 to get another talent and use it on Fear Tactics, then switch to the electric turret for a really solid turret build. Awesome vids Arekkz. I just found your channel this morning and I've watched a lot of your stuff already, definitely subscribing! I'm going to try out the Support Station tonight to replace my Heal, I hadn't thought to do that but I'll take your advice! One thing though: in solo play outside of the DZ, will the station revive you if you're downed inside of circle? Since there is no "revive timer" when you're downed, not sure if this would work.

Keep up the good work and thank.

I personally recommend fire turret with the perk that has a chance to spread fire affect to all enemies in a small area. I recommend this only because you get the same stun time with fire but for some reason, when as enemy is on fire, his shields seem to go away faster.

Nice! This has changed how I'm looking at my character build immensely! Cheers eh ;)

nice, good video and sensible suggestions imho

I had an idea of what solo build I should have and you've just confirmed my theory. Thanks Mr Arekkz!

I have been getting good use out of the healing mod for smart cover. I have been trying to decide between firearms and electronics because I like my skills but I also want to kill things more quickly LOL

This setup is phenomenal, ammo cache for the support station is the cure for the dark zone. For PVE I use the seeker mine with the gas mod tho, but pulse is perfect for PVP

Love the channel! have you tried the Warren power plant on challenge mode yet? Easily the hardest mission so far in my opinion!

you are very explanatory, thanks for that. it really helps a lot!!!!!! ;D

Hey Arekkz! Great video! The Special gear vendor is selling a blueprint for a High-end Vector. I really like smg's but im not sure if i should farm for those pheonix credits to buy it.

Great video. Thank you, could you make something similar for desynchronized duo. I wanna play with my brother but there is no chance that we would accept some strict roles like Glass cannon + Support. I think that in 2 you can switch at least weapons and maybe run assault + shotgun ?

i feel that tech support is a must have for all builds. because as long as you keep killing. ANY skill with a duration will stay up longer. sometimes even indefinitely

This is also a good build for people like myself who are disabled gamers that have physical difficulties. Great tips for building a character to use in Solo or even basics to use in co-op (would only need a couple of tweaks) Cheers. Defo going to be slightly respecing my build.

Proper useful this video

there is one thing i try todo in division at the moment and that is having a good amount of bullets to shoot while having a good amount of dps and health and maybe now i should try to invest in every stat in the game if i can

Nice and Thanks

oh yea turret with zapper mod saved me so may times in darkzone this solo build is almost what I use think a few talents are different

I have a quite similar build to this one , but I wanted to ask you if you could do reviews on high end weapons being level 30 in not sure which to get and which not to get , at the moment I have a Liberator and Cassidy and the Damascus side arm but that Scar-H marksman rifle that you had looked pretty good. Not to mention the vector that melted shields

Hey Arekkz, when you have gotten to the end of the main story the icon for the upcoming incursion appears in the lower right corner of the map by the Warrengate Power Plant.

thanks a lot I took out four people with this I love this class thx

I like this build, it's like I'm still free to do whatever I want I just know how now.

My favorite solo build so far is the deployable flame thrower turret, first aid with booster shot mod and the security wing signature skill. With that I run my liberator with a high end extended mag and my purple vector 45. acp. I've speced into critical hit damage and chance with my stats to something like the scale of 3:2:1.5 (firearms, stamina and electronics). With steady hands (25% stability buff for 10 seconds after taking cover, wild fire chance to set all other nearby enemies on fire when I set one on fire, 30% damage resistance when going cover to cover and damage resistance after killing any enemy on the move).

I've been using this exact build type except with first aid with the overdose mod instead of support station

thank you for the vid Arekkz , been strugleing solo in the DZ(to many high gear teams farming the lowwer DZ and killing every one on ps4), going try your surgestions, thx again for the Informative Vids, i feel like and idiot for not useing the aid station with it rez mod >

Super helpful

brilliant video

Did anyone notice the flying body at 3:12?😂😂😂

this build is KEY. I need it

Got this game for free from a friend through a graphics card purchase. Never was on my wish list, but I'm pleasantly surprised how fun it is. Almost level 30 and no sign of getting bored with it. Going solo is fun, but for harder missions, having 3 other friends play this helps :)

That awesome feeling when you see Arekkz endorse the same exact build you've been running with already. Awesome vid man, I actually have been running with this one already and it's especially nice to get some validation. I wasn't 100% sure if this was the most effective or not, so seeing your vid was reassuring. Its been super effective for me even when I was still rocking blues, and has only gotten better as my gear quality increased.

I like it. I think this may become my default build.

Thanks Arekkz! Great tips! 100% Lone Wolf. In the PVE and Dark Zone. I just go in the DZ to kill NPCs to get loot and DZ exp.

What is that filmflash transition preset you're using between clips? Really great preset.

Hahaha... My build is exactly the same. I am even rocking the Vector - Btw can you make a video about the difference between DZ special vendor items and Base of operations special vendor and about crafting legendaries

Thank u it helped

So just saw video after i picked up the game months or so ago. Thank you for the btw. I run assult rifles and marks men im gonna try smg smand see if i like that better

You will have 3 million subs by the end of the year. Keep it up!

looking forward to trying this, I'm level 25 and still feel like don't know enough ha, after watching this i most certainly need to improve my health, also just wondering when you are doing a full tank one? just when i go in with friends think ill be the tank as I'm further ahead of them and already completed the missions they are doing Thanks again appreciate it :)

Hey Arekkz! Big time fan. What are your thoughts on a ballistics shield focused tank build and do you think it would be viable ?

I'm not 100% on this, but I think tapping First Aid procs as a medkit in the game. I've had several low health abilities proc when tapping that ability and it's saved me without having to consume limited medkits. (I think) that's a valuable benefit above healing station, plus it's instant, but they're both great options. Other than that I think the gas seeker mines are really good for add control as well. But yea, good guide! I think it's incredible how many people sleep on Survivor Link as a super. You become near indestructible with it activated. :D

great video learned alot from your series but have a question, can I do a tank build with stamina playing third with very high skill and s firearms second? I'm a player that's uses skill alot mostly pulse, tactical link, healing station my skill is 45k firearms 108k health 48k. I didn't Kno about armor mitigation so I can increase that along with getting healthy closer to 65k but with higher armor even though health is low my armor should be able to take a good bit of hits before getting to my health. healing station should help out and keep me in the fight with Medkits.but is my dps is high and the RIGHT talents and high skill I should end fights quickly especially with my pulse dealing 96% critical damage then tactical link boosting that. that's for your help hope that was laid out clearly to understand

Alex, outstanding channel, always has been. This is my first comment: can you please mention that the Blue Prints have the advantage to being re-rolled by crafting as oppose to using phoenix credits. It is fine to use phoenix credits but not everyone realises that they can simply be crafted again to have the chance at better rolls. Thanks.

hey bro. do you have a video showing your weapon and equipments?

Thank you for the video best video

Great minds think alike, this has been pretty much my build since release

I've found myself a LMG with the Talents Unforgiving (Missing health segments increase damage) and Brutal (Headshot damage is increased by 18.5%), with weapon mods I have set the stability as high as possible and this thing melts opponents away as long as I manage to land my hits. That honestly is the most important thing about my solo build.

nice build. this one is about 10 percent stronger then mine. almost identical except of the skills and perks. I call mine the equilibrium build and it makes challenge mode seem pretty easy. enemies with shotguns on challenge mode can kill me in about 4 hits, unlike most players dying from one lol. overall good set up.

I use the talent that gives you a pulse for head shots, great for solo

Do you have a video of best Semi auto rifles, Shotguns (that uses Slug ammo) and pistols?
