which dlc to prioritize getting

[Eclipsedarksoul]

So I've played this game before and absolutely love it. once through someone else's profile years ago, then again the version that they have on game pass. Got up to about level 80 there.

Seeing this game on sale while i was getting a different one. i spent about 40$ on the dlc so i can ahve it on steam properly. Mainly focusing on the cheaper ones and a few heists i wanted to do on xbox but wasn't part of the gamepass version.

But this game has so much that unless most of it goes on sale i'm probably gonna be buying the rest in 3 too 4 more batches when i've got the spare cash.

Which leads me too my question of which dlc should i prioritize getting first in terms of quality and quantity? Which heists, charcaters and weapon packs do you all think are the best, in that order.

i would say anything in the legacy collection if not the Entire Legacy Collection could set you on a pretty good path

i can't really help you much if you're going for what's good because i have zero clue on what IS good in this game but thats my general beginners advice. get the legacy collection and build off from there. i have zero clue what to prioritize next after that

Yah i went and took a look at that while waiting for the game to download, with what i already have it be about only 30$ and has a lot of what i remember from the game pass version. Might give in and grab it here, maybe as a treat since i'm getting my wisdom teeth removed in a lil over a week.

This pack has the very basics for most guns that you would want.
It includes the gage dlcs which have a lot ranging from weapons, to ammo types for shotguns and such.
As a lil bonus it has a few other dlcs that also have pretty decent content (like the AK17 from the Gage Russian Pack which is one of the best high damage assault rifles in the game)

For heists, its about preference, aside from wolf pack which brings back TWO heists from PDTH https://store.steampowered.com/app/441600/PAYDAY_2_Wolf_Pack/
Currently on sale for a dollar

The rest really would be preference / extra content, but I think the gage vs bikers bundle is the very basics if you're not going for legacy like already mentionned

Edit: Gage vs Bikers has better value than picking just the gage dlcs themselves + you get the biker heist and biker character pack (the perk deck itself isnt the best but pretty fun to play, but for better value we always take a bonus i guess :p)

Gage vs Bikers as said above is a great bundle for weaponry.
There is one other DLC that's good for mods in addition to the GvB bundle, which is the Butcher's AK/CAR Mod pack. However, the mods themselves are locked behind achievements, and some of them are fairly difficult, but if you complete them, it makes any weapon from the AK/CAR family very versatile.

Legacy collection is the best decision fr
