[CLAY]

thanks for ur coming advises and opinions

IMO most important is the right stats on your gear, damage to elite and enemy armor damage wherever is possible.

Ofc gear helps but if you consider a striker wih 0 DTE and 0 EAD to like a nomad with these stats maxed out both with the same weapon talents and FA. Nomad will do better vs elites.

And the same goes for weapons, house probably has best dps but a house with terrible talents vs a god roll lwm4, a lwm4 will do better. Some talents are good for pvp, others for pve and a bunch of them ate bad at both.

There is no simple answer to your question.

mhmm the problem with striker gear what i have is .. if i gear all set bonuses as example my DPS of weapon go dramaticly down ... but if i wearing o´some normal highend yellow gears my DPS go dramaticly UP ... i not understand that concept so really... peoples say GEAR sets striker, nomad etc best ... but why this gears pull down very dramaticly the DPS/SPS into the ground???

Edit : example with a normal Highend yellow gears and mods i have with Lvoa-C now 364 k SPS but if i wearingg strike SPS go down until 200 k....

Lvoac / lmw4 (assault rifle)
M7carbon / svd (sniper)

Striker #1 / Nomad #2 for solo player

Reclaimer #3 group

For talents <assault rifle> : responsive / destructive / deadly / competent & ferocious (must be on the 3rd spot)

<sniper> : prepared / destructive / deadly / elevated / ferocious & competent (3rd slot)

Its all coming back to your build preference

my build preference ist with assault rifles specializing to critical damage and critical hit

but i want something where i survive long and can kill fast... at moemtn im shooting 3 magazins on elite that he die finally.... my gear mods are mostly about damage and surviving... mods of weapons are crit hit and crit damage, recoil and stability...

#maybe someone can put here screenshots that i can look on it and try to udnerstand the concept of this gears, and weapons?

in internet i saw some but mostly they not show and bad explain that i nothing understand from it.. and much are still from 1.6 .....

DPS is meaningless man, don’t focus on only turning your numbers green. 6 piece Classified Striker is hands down the highest damage output set in the game. Pair it with a lightweight m4, Bullfrog, LVOAC, or Showstopper. Spec into damage to Elites and Enemy Armor Damage. 7k firearms and 6k stamina. No electronics. Never focus on DPS, ever. Firearms and base weapon damage + gearset >>>

And not using Assault rifles in PVE are another of your problems. Enemy armor damage is key in pve. CHC and CHD matter in pvp.

If you're shooting 3 mags to kill one elite you dont have damage to elites and enemy armor damage anywhere besides you AR.

Best pve gears atm are classified striker and nomad. If both are properly built striker will do more damage but you have more survivability with nomad.

Its all about weapon talents and gear rolls actually.

Also I dont use crit for pve, its so easy constantly hs them so I stack hs damage, crdmg only at my grip with a couple of crit rate as sub stats like mag, grip, muzzle

Get to the world tier 5 (256 gear score above), start collecting classified stuff and listen to the stuff that me and the others told you, after you get the classified you want, try to recalibrate kneepads and mask to damage to elites / enemt armor damage, or you could watch youtuber called marcostyle, he make a helpfull guide "Best in Slot" for your classified / nonclassified, get purple mods that gives you 3-4% DTE, you do all that you could kill every named boss with half of the mags

One thing no one mentioned is character talents.
You can use on the move to give yourself a small temporary health buff, tac advance with steady hands helps with damage especially with weapons like big al, lvoa/m4 and bullfrog.
In a group always use combat medic.

My go to talents for pve ar is,
Destructive
Unforgiving
Ferocious

Weapon mods stack up crit chance for ar's, run precision to get flat crit chance and crit damage.

Think about your own play style, do you like to face tank NPCs or do you play from cover most of the time, and adjust your stats accordingly, or think about which talents you want to run on your weapons and adjust your gear set numbers accordingly. How is your aim, if you can hold an Assault rifle`s crosshairs right on the targets head most of the time and your mostly playing at close range then use Headshot damage mods, if your playing in cover from a longer distance or your aim is not as good use crit chance and crit damage mods or carry a headshot damage weapon for close range and a crit weapon for long range.
Ignore the DPS numbers because it is based upon hitting headshots for every bullit you fire at maximum fire rate, which usually does not happen.
The house is a good weapon at close range and might be the best im not sure but I have noticed that the damage falls off quite a lot even at medium to long range, Lightweight M4 is probably the best all around weapon but while playing PvE modes like resistance, I like to carry at least 1 weapon of each type in case I run out of ammo and maybe several pairs of gloves with the different weapon type damages if you have them.
An LMG with high damage roll on it can be good in PvE as a back up, if you have LMG damage on the gloves, MG5 is good but too much reloading unless your running Lone Star so a better choice might be a high damage roll LMG with at least a 550 fire rate such as an M249 B and a 200 round mag with reload speed and reload speed on the handle.
Good luck out there.
