Inspector_666 posted:I would like to be able to mark as junk and mark for sale, but if you mark stuff as junk and then dismantle something, the fact that it takes apart everything is the entire point of the feature. The problem is that you can have a non-junk item highlighted, use the deconstruct junk feature, and it'll destroy the highlighted item as well. So you need to make extra sure that you're looking at a junk item when you deconstruct, or you might accidentally destroy your primary weapon.

Paul MaudDib posted:This has been my experience so far. The Police M4 is clearly the best all-around weapon and the M1A currently shits all over everything if you have the slightest ability to aim headshots or even just hold on your target. So that's what I've run so far. SMG's are way more useful to me than AR's Especially with a Marksman rifle. The Range that is too far away to use SMG's is a range I would be using a Marksman rifle with anyway, and the range I would be using an SMG at is "Oh poo poo crazy Shotgun dude is charging at my Location, gently caress gently caress gently caress let me blind fire this smg from cover or move and hip fire this thing at his head to kill him before he reaches me." If I'm not being charged at then I just use a Marksman Rifle. AR is a middle zone that with a Marksman Rifle(that's not bolt action anyway) isn't needed

You can't disassemble equipped weapons, although I see your point. Personally, I think the whole dismantling feature is fine and makes sense, it just annoys me that it uses the same classifier for junk to dismantle and junk to sell.

Paul MaudDib posted:SMGs are alright especially if you vid your shots into like 2-3 round bursts. They just don't have the range to be generally effective, and they're overshadowed by both any AR and the M1A at all ranges. They need to let you put them in the pistol slot or something. Aug supremacy, my friend. Stabilize that bad-boy, add some extra crit stuff and it becomes a laser of critting doom that's better than an assault rifle. quote:As for pistols - I've used them for a total of about 10 seconds and they seemed like total garbage. But, I guess uh, unlimited ammo, in case you're somehow more than five seconds from a resupply crate? Popping that talent that gives back 30 primary ammo, and finishing off named elites. Every pistol I've found has a perk that does 200% damage to dudes under 30% health. Snuffman fucked around with this message at 22:20 on Mar 18, 2016 |

Dandywalken posted:The Bullet King thing? Thats the one. It also works with other bosses but that is the closest to a safehouse so the most convenient. You can also join other games that have the boss up but then that person has to leave the game, rather than kick you. Then you can both farm him.

They suck in all regards except for one niche, dropping other players when within point blank range. Outside of that, they're worthless.

If you have a good one, though, I could see there being a real case for using it on bosses at a certain level of health because of their innate talent.

They should really just make the high-end recipes always available and not on a timer. Just up the bird coin prices and stuff. I mean I'll be surprised if the individual firearms/stamina/electronics gear recipes actually disappear compared to the weapons which cycle. Though I just checked and I guess not all the armour recipes are up at the same time, that seems lame. And give unique weapons with unique names actual unique talents you can't find anywhere else, so they are still a superior choice to rolling for the best possible item via crafting.

Paul MaudDib posted:This has been my experience so far. The Police M4 is clearly the best all-around weapon and the M1A currently shits all over everything if you have the slightest ability to aim headshots or even just hold on your target. Recoil and spread make accuracy on automatic weapons (both ARs and SMGs) pretty poor after about 3 shots, and when you factor in the time for the crosshairs to settle after your burst the M1A comes out clearly on top, even if you're just cranking bodyshots as fast as the M1A will fire. So that's what I've run so far - M4 and M1A. SMGs bonus is the shoulder allows you to run faster and at mid range you can empty a clip into their head. The crits will make up for the lower dmg of shots along with the faster reload and fire rate. I only used AR and marksman for 29 lvls. I started to try out SMGs because everyone was talking about them so much and they grew on me. Sure I can kill 2 purples\yellows in the DZ with a 50+ clip on the AR but you can kill 2 purples\yellows faster with an SMG even having to reload. SMGs are easy to get headshots with too. If you want to move fast while grinding DZ exp, SMG are the key. Marksman is still what I use if the group is huge with a bunch of heavies or snipers.

Two hours until vendor reset; The vendor at W 31st Street and 6th Avenue DZ CP has a (SCAR) MK 16 AR with +40% Stability (1444 Stamina req) and +40% Accuracy (1444 Firearm req) talents. A hellaciously accurate AR if you're rank 30DZ and really easy to meet the stat requirements. Edit: Meticulous on a M60 with an expanded magazine is You have a high chance on a mob kill to instantly refill the gigantic box of ammo with bullets that come from the magic bullet fairy and not your own stockpile.

I made too many AK-74's and it turns out I'm now really low on weapon parts and tools. Like, between that and some gold expanded mags I'm at 1 or 2, my entire reserve is depleted, all that's left is my division tech and I want to save that for dark zone recipes if at all possible. That one I made completely by accident once I had my perfect gun didn't help either. This is a public service announcement to be content with a crafting result that's just "okay." Also, is there any way to turn blue division tech resources into gold (high tech) ones, or can you only turn them into gold versions of other resources? I saw some of the recipes at the lvl 50 DZ vendor required gold division tech resources, which I guess you can gather up here and there through enemy drops or harvesting division tech resources nodes since I do have a few of them, but it'd sure be swell if I could upgrade division tech just like other resources.

I would back it up with a faster SMG though, it doesn't vomit bullets out like a vector or something similar though, but it's great and those talents are fairly easy to activate.
