Regarding acquiring Capacitor: You don't have to play all floors 1-100, You just have to complete the 5 challenges during a single session, so if you leave the summit , or log out before completing all 5 challenges, you have to start again, but you do not have to play all 100 floors.
@@moriconvallaria1279 Commenting this on 15/12/2023, Yes they changed it. I only does 4 and need to have urgent irl matter, I log back to the game and back to summit, my challenges count is still at 4, so yes you can go hop in and out whenever you like (and the progress of challenges still there too if u haven't finished one before u get out)
it's a weird mask it's just awkward to use. if you have a max crit AR you are wasting the crit bonuses. If your ar has say 50% crit , than at max range you waste a crit boost, and up close range you lose 10% crit. And it goes on. It's still better than any mask i guess, but when ninjabikepack comes out soon it will a useless exotic forever.
I would add 2 must haves for DPS Hunter builds. Coyote mask and Chatterbox smg. The Chatterbox is so underrated, especially on lower difficulties while Shepherding new players. Its like playing on Golden bullet
Great choices! Those are hard to argue against. I have the Busy Little Bee but up to this point, haven't used it all that much. Lol, I'm too reliant on either the Scorpio or Capacitor with most of my setups. The Scorpio is especially potent for me as a Solo player for that noted stopping power. It's just so effective all around, be it defensively stopping aggressive flanking behavior or using it aggressively to chase down and smash heavy mobs
Amazing how immediately those big ass bomb squad brutes stop being a factor lol. If you're on console and looking for a clan or even just another to run w anytime, fire a msg over. Tag on PS is Homelander 7. I'm often solo as well. Cheers ZG
Same first two for me, but my 3rd is for sure the Vile mask, 4th can be Capacitor... and as I don't use Catharsis and Busy Bee, I would go with my 5th depending on the situation (Ravenous, Coyote's, Regulus, Nemesis, Sweet Dreams, EB)...
Capacitor is a prime choice for Skil builds especially with turret & drone combo. I also was surprised myself when you didn't say Vile mask (for SE builds), Regulus (but then again it is a raid weapon but it packs a hella punch like BLB) and Ravager or Eagle Bearer (both good IMO since I see them used a LOT, but once again a raid weapon)
I totally agree with the whole list! The first 4 have utility and optionality and totally agree that those were the first 4 and as I was watching I was thinking hmm what will he chose as the 5th. I’m my head I was like well I’d pick the capacitor as it’s my favorite and most used gun in the game (but slowly moving away from skill builds recently). The capacitor has both DPS and skill functionality so great choice! Most other exotics has specific and limited use cases (but shine in those specific uses (vile, coyotes, sawyers, waveform, ladydeath, sweet dreams, etc)) Great video! Thanks!
farm countdown with striker targeted loot. get pieces with skill damage. yellow core them. use waveform, henri (or some other skill based talented chest of choice) and 4 yellow cored striker pieces with skill damage with capacitor. i use assault turret and striker drone. they do a ton of damage and the striker stacks buff capacitor damage along with its talent. its an insanely fun build.
Just started playing countdown today & got some exotic caches & got the momento backpack :). Thanks for giving me the idea to do that.. Appreciate the info as i just started playing a few weeks ago.
I would put Souvenir in 1st place because it is versatile and helps with gameplay, it makes it a lot easier. Secondly, the Scorpion shotgun, which practically takes the toughest enemies out of combat. In 3 a Lady dead, in pvp this weapon is Meta, I believe that everyone who enters the blind zone often plays with this weapon, if it were PVP ranking this weapon would be TOP 1 In 4th place, the coyote mask for helping the team and the player himself to have more damage both in pve and pvp. In 5 place to King of bullets for being instrumental in challenging activities like Raids and legendary missions.
I’d go Memento, Scorpio, Capacitor, waveform, and the fifth….? Not to sure! The memento and scorpio are obvious, the capacitor and waveform combined rips with 6 tiers and is a continuous rotating 70% skill damage boost while in combat. Solid list Rogue
What were the builds for the memento and scorpio ? I noticed you had strikers with eagle bearer and I use Strikers a lot but couldn't think of a build with it with Eagle bearer and for the scorpio I saw hunter's fury and memento as well
Here's the two builds! Memento 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-3lH-hL4hTxQ.html Scorpio 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-6uME7ts9l6A.html
@@RogueGold Wow we have the same hunters fury build lol only difference we have is yours is all red and I have 3 armor cores and I was using the Lady Death instead of the Scorpio
Hey I know it’s an old video but about the Busy Little Bee will it drop from pistol targeted countdown? Been trying for a few days and soo many caches with no luck.
Finally got Memento after doing a couple of heroic Countdowns. Never could get it farming via the Summit so I was happy as hell to get one finally via Countdown.
I hope this helps people. I been helping my friend who is a newish player I told him he needs the memento so we went to the summit set target loot to back pack on sure as eggs one dropped on 63 floor. So don’t give up give it a try hope this helps some one oh and if it doesn’t drop run it again and go up a level
I got it finally today after trying all sorts of shit for months it randomly dropped in a level up exotic cache built a foundry Bulwark build with the point man chest piece it's insanely op
Btsu gloves? Those are really good imo.(if youre running hive build) Ability: dismantale own hive to get overcharge, if you are already on tier six, overcharge will be granted to all teamates Cooldown:60sec
God bless you for not including the EB.As many players will never get it because they cant/dont raid.And considering the upcoming DZ raid drops which is nice,still could be a hot mess.Thanks RG. Im lucky enough to have all 5 of these,they all serve a purpose.(1)MBP is my goto for Pve.Great 5 for sure.(6) Coyotes mask.
RG, spot on, I love your content and love the narration! Keep rocking! I’ll have to give the bush bee a try, haven’t used it. Well next week, I’ll be busy in the DZ LOL… gotta fetch me that EB finally, which for me, is more an ego boost… 😊
so when it comes to exotics, for a mission that gives out (for example) shotguns. the harder the difficultly is the better chance I have of getting an exotic shotgun? is this correct. lmk.
LOL I literally use all these but the catharsis. I run a very useful Repair Skill build with the Restorer Hive when I play Legendary, At level 6 and putting on a mod i get 36 charges. The BTSU Gloves have 75% Hive haste and those 36 charges recover in under a second the way I have it.
Okay so this has nothing to do with the message the video is giving but if anybody can help me to find out as to why my mates health bar is always down by one bar for some reason when it should be fully generated? If there is a reason for this can someone please explain why as we have no idea why this is?
@@RogueGold I understand. I’ve made a very similar build and am having a load of fun with it! Need to increase SHD + expertise lvl a lot tho hahaha. Out of interest, why the GS holster as opposed to picaros? I’ve been using picaros and then a GS backpack so I still get the extra crit
@@RogueGold Ah awesome! What backpack do you prefer between GS, Ceska and W+H? Sorry for all the questions hahaha. I really appreciate your replies 👊❤️
My top 5 would be the same except i would swap Busy Little Bee with Coyote's mask. I just havent gotten around to getting used to the Busy Little Bee lol.
I've just started playing again after taking a break since the expertise update, does anybody know of a list or video that lists all current exotics I've looked all over but can't find anything but I know there's been a bunch added since I played
This gives a list of all the armor pieces up until Season 10, I think they have a list for weapons too: thedivision.fandom.com/wiki/Exotic_Items_in_The_Division_2
I'd swap out the Capacitor for the Coyote's Mask, but that's just me. Cap is really strong solo skill build tool, but I feel like the Coyote's is far more useful if your aim is a tad bit decent and you don't want to rely on your skills to be doing the damage. BTW, the Scorpio is great and by far the easiest Exotic to play with. But it also goes very well along side the Vile mask.
The Coyote's was absolutely in the running for the list, but like I mentioned at the start I didn't want to just list 5 items only fitting one playstyle/build type, so I tired to diversify it a bit 😄
I'd go with Scorpio 1, Coyote's 2, BTSU Datagloves 3, Memento 4, Eagle Bearer 5. Scorpio is pretty self-explanatory, just balances out OP NPC's and Hunters. ALWAYS useful. Absolutely unique and one of / the best item in the game right now. Coyote's is just stupid strong in teams and extremely solid solo. Always has been meta since it came out and in certain teams is mandatory. Again, unique trait. BTSU gloves has a very unique trait that enables a lot of builds and when planned around can also make everyone else stronger, make everyone else' skills better consistently and in a short cooldown and also gets everyone's revive hives back. Memento is really strong and Hunter Fury memento is absolutely crazy. Enables a lot of builds but the top 3 items are the Trinity of Go Get This. Eagle Bearer as 5th just on the grounds that AR's > Everything right now and it's the best AR, what other reason do you want? xD Catharsis is VERY strong in some tank / PVP builds and Nemesis is really strong in PVP (was one of the best in PVE until Determined came out and made all exotic snipers obsolete) so they are just outside the podium but I wouldn't consider them need / mandatory. Busy Little Bee got nerfed and it's rare that people don't go for an exotic primary because Scorpio exists. Capacitor is strong but Test Subject is close with A LOT less effort and much safer. Just my 2 cents. Great video!
In what way is the eagle bearer the best AR? Its good, but its certainly not better than a police m4, or famas with damage to enemies out of cover +strained/fast hands. Sure the EB has survivability, but thats not even close to worth it over the loss of dps and it uses your exotic slot when you could otherwise be running a police m4 + scorpio instead. The EB has uses, but certainly not top 5 exotics use considering a variety of high end ARs just outperform it strait out of the bag
@@FearLegion-co8gg EB is a unique AR due to it's talent. It literally enables a bunch of PVP builds and playstyles so I have no idea what the hell you're talking about.
I dunno about the BLB, it's a cute handgun sure but I wouldn't prioritize it over say Coyote's Mask or BTSU Gloves (the latter are practically mandatory for any Healer build and your teammates will love you for it on Legendary missions) The Memento and Scorpion are both disgustingly overpowered IMO and fundamentally warp balance. The devs say they don't make exotics for that purpose but those 2 are undeniably BiS to the point of absurdity. That's why I LOVE The Capacitor, easily my favorite exotic (at least until NBBP comes back in S11) it's very powerful but it doesn't completely break the game. Hugely underrated weapon IMO. I actually wish they'd buff it a little but I dunno how they could do that without eclipsing all other ARs because it was a very fine line. Kinda surprised you didn't mention the EB, or is that because we can't farm it in the DZ just yet?
I view the EB as more of a marginal power upgrade. There are a lot of other weapons, even high-end AR's that can do just as well as it in various content. It's got some phenomenal boosts like the 60 mag and crit mods (and it's my favorite gun in the game), but I just don't think it's as "need to have" as something like the Memento or Scorpio, like you were saying.
Hard to disagree with your choices, I use Pestilence a lot too but it has to be in the right build. Haven't used the Busy Little Bee since it was first introduced but maybe it's time to blow the dust off and give it a try. Nice video. Maybe you could do a review of the 5 you consider to be the least useful exotics which no one would miss if they weren't there ?.
Capacitor shits all over the test subject lol. Why would you ever choose that over the capacitor... it is best in slot for hybrid builds and skill builds in general easily
the Capacitor is goated on any skill build. i just don't understand why it doesnt show the stacks you've accumulated like every other exotic or set gear does.
The Bee for me just does not work, by the time I tag people up and then come back to shoot them, I'd have already killed them with my main gun. (PvE, might be a different story in PvP)
Quick question. Don’t roast me in the comments lmao. So I’m a Destiny 2 player and as such, a lot of this terminology is familiar to me. I was an avid Division 1 player and am diving into the Division 2 now. For seasonal loot, even though it does enter the general loot pool, does it still require me to purchase the respective seasonal pass associated with it? Or does it simply drop in the general loot pool as if it were a part of the base game? I ask because being a D2 player, the purchase of a season allows access to the respective seasonal guns and I wasn’t sure if this game followed a similar model. If anyone could help me, it would be greatly appreciated.
Hey! Welcome to TD2 👊 Div 2 does not follow that same Seasonal model. In fact you don't even need to purchase the current Season to obtain the currently-available Seasonal Exotics, they're always on the free portion of the track. So whether a Season is ongoing or has concluded, you don't need to have purchased anything for the associated Exotics to drop 👍 Hope that helps!
@@RogueGold Thank God! I appreciate the response. I’ve been glued to your channel the past few days and will definitely be subbing. Looking forward to your future vids. 🫡
I know it's personal opinion, but I would add the Ravenous, The Regulus and the gunslinger holster, beside the holster, the other two are probably the most rare exotics in the game.. But they do make a difference in gameplay. Too bad the sleigher is not an exotic otherwise it would be the first in any list!
whes coyote? im surprised it's not here. Granted when ninjabikpack releases coyote will never be used again. Eagle bearer helps with survival and has good dmg, but it's hard to control so i get it not being here.
As I mentioned in the vid I wanted to offer a variety of items in terms of their relevant content and playstyles, so wanted to include at least one skill option with the Capacitor :)
Busy Bee definitely needs a nerf in pvp it’s the only weapon that doesn’t have separate pvp stats it’s ridiculous that players can farm npcs then one tap me
No synergy between the two. You need to tag targets and switch back to your main weapon. That holster performs best with harder hitting pistols/revolver. Swap and 1 tap a target, prepped burst dmg.
@@MrRybeara im looking for the first initial shot that does nearly 3 mil damage. There is enough for me. I tag targets after that first shot then i switch to main.
@@40proofbleach81 understandable, but BLB has 31 rounds and revolver has 8, DE has 9? Im still doing nearly 3 mil with BLB not to take away from your argument. I feel with the loadout its still a viable option with the talent the gun has.
Which kinds of settings do you want to know about? You can check out this one that I did 👉 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-XyHdz8amQCs.html
My luck is so bad. I've been farming countdown for the Catharsis mask, and have gotten 5 Coyote's and 4 Viles. But not a single Catharsis mask. I just want it so I can survive DZ 😭
Capacitor is sick when you figure out a skill/dps hybrid build. I run Technician spec Momento bag 4 piece striker with yellow cores and crits Sombra chest with crits and glass cannon Striker drone and Chem heal The weapon does 800k at full momento stacks, my drone hits for 100k and my chem heal is really good at sustaining myself which is important because I’m running glass cannon and it’s good at supporting my teammates with a powerful splash heal
