I've seen this build in way too many pub lobbies. It haunts me. Nothing against Kknowley, the rest of his videos are great, just that he makes meh builds. There are a lot of people that make meh builds, but they don't market them as "the best build", which is where I see a problem. Players who don't know better will fall into a trap build like this one, or any of b33croft's builds and think "wow ds really is hard" when in reality it's the build that is failing them.
My discord server:

The footage used in here was obviously not mine but Kknowley's so pls no sue over that.
Thanks for watching!
About a good build, copy paste from comment I made, but pinning this might be more useful:
I figured that it would be clear for others to make a build by showing what not to do from this one, but I guess it’s my fault for assuming something like that. Here’s a build you could run that is similar and would outperform this:
pd2builder.netlify.app/?s=1I3c1000eh1000100h0010xc000116&p=e&a=0&t=4&d=3
Grab the m60 modded for highest stats and 128 damage which lets you get 2 shot headshots along with a db grimm secondary.
My bad on that, I spent 5 hours editing and recording this today so it slipped my mind.
''m60 modded for highest stats''
Sooo, what mods do i put on the m60 then?
what about secondary?
@@joenuts7471 DB grimm, DB stands for Dragon's Breath - it's an ammunition modification. And Grimm - shotgun.
As a player without the M60's dlc, which LMG should I use, and which mods, if you don't mind me asking?
@@GaussiArson what did you end up using?
While I found listening to myself in this context really hard, I still enjoyed the video in a weird...masochistic sort of way. I'm going to take all of this on board when making any future builds and really appreciate the critique. One of the issues I have when making builds is they're not peer-reviewed, so I probably have a tendency to make sweeping statements because they sound right in my script. To make matters worse, most of my testing was played with a capable friend and AI, meaning as you say, I was able to rely on a ludicrous quantity of Medic bags and simply going down to refill my armor. In any case, know that I appreciate the effort you're going to with videos like these and am an avid viewer of your content myself. Personally, I'm going to be working on some less gameplay focused videos for now, so rest easy ;) I look forward to you grilling my CS video when I get round to it!
Taking criticism well (like you appear to here) is good, so keep that in mind if the rest of the situation makes you feel bad :D
I appreciate you not taking the criticism to heart, and I do hope that you use it to improve future builds. My goal has always been to help others improve through both general advice and better builds, and since you have a wider reach to the community than I do, I hope that you can make more builds to give to others that will help them beat DSOD easier. c:
On the other hand now your m60 build is like a challenge to see if I can get most kills and least downs with it.
@@Mot-dh5sx you know how they say. The best 2020 build for speedrunning.... getting into fucking custody
You’re both pog my dude. You both are very constructive and I’m glad that both of you make such wonderful content.
Thanks for the shoutout. C:
There's no way people can think ICTV Anarchist is better than suit after seeing those clips. If someone ever tells me I'm wrong, I will just send this video.
Also, the videos with commentary are infinitely better - I watched the entire video without being bored for a single second.
I think it's the way new people approach the game from a basic RPG player's perspective - Armor (and lots of it) for a tanky build, Dodge for anything else, because even casual gamers are used to those two extremes and may not even think about specific mechanics in-depth. So when a new player sees Anarchist for example, "oh it regens armor, better have a lot of armor on me just like in all those other games I've played, so ICTV is the way to go".
@@gellasztomania1643 so that mean ictv the worse armor
@@Mi_tala for Anarchist? Definietly.
I saw your comment on his video, and I was wondering when you were going to make a video on his build. Glad to see it's here!
when you started using that izhma in fast speed I thought it was a smg and I was like wait didn't that just say izhma
i really have been enjoying these build breakdowns I love the more technical approach to the game , crunching the numbers and whanot as I've always wondered what skills were actually worth the point investment
Can you fix GeneralMcBadass's "Pistol Build" ?
Edit: I know it is a very old build, but I've had so much fun using it, which is why I ask for you to make this build up-to-date.
Yes, I’d love to see this build fixed
The Suit Anarchist template I’ve copied from this video has carried me through many a heist. I don’t play much of DW, much less loud DS/OD, but due to how easy it is to use and utilize it makes my builds less focused on the perks and skills and more on what weapons I *want* to use, instead of needing to use. Plus, it goes well with low blow and berserker builds. While I do double dip both of them, seeing the high body counts (along with killing a dozer with a melee swing if need be) gives me such a rush of dopamine.
I just found your channel due to this video and then I started to binge watch you fixing all of b33croft’s build and I just want to say thank you so much I’ve been using his builds and I end up going down way to easily and I always felt like I wasn’t getting the maximum potential out of my build. So please keep doing what you are doing. And I have one question I’m trying to use the biker perk deck since I just bought rust when are you gonna do that one?
Literally irrelevant because infamy 3.0
-Quick thing I missed, it's infamy 2 and not 3 since fugitive auto gets the reductions. I'm used to the reductions either going into mastermind for inspire, enforcer for the ICTV, or ghost for Unseen Strike/ Sneaky Bastard. Shouts to those that told me I messed that up.-
Well, it was infamy 3, because first infamy is The heat, not an infamy reduction.
Yea, doesn’t really matter much anymore lol
Sure doesn't xd
@@CarrotIsBad L
About parkour aced, I don't think it's a bad skill, I play with stoic on build I made myself and I use Parkour aced, if you need to stop your reload, just use the melee button and there you go, if the enemy is close-by you can even dominate him if you hit the melee and the enemy is far away and you are out of ammo, you would die regardless.
The skill works perfectly with locke and load aced and instead of running to cover and reload, you can just run to cover while reloading, I'm not new to DS, I have the DSOD mask myself and most of the time I didn't had the skill equipped, I was missing her more than I was happy about not having it.
I actually run both these skills using grinder, works like a charm.
Use both in my hacker build and running around like a maniac shooting people and then reloading at the same time is very useful.
Didnt know reload cancelling was such a factor in dsod , ill try not taking it , should makes my build more flexible , :D thx for the tip
If you ever do another "killing test" I'd suggest starting the timer after getting the first kill.
Gotta love these videos, I just buy anarchist like a poor and now I want to get invested in playing DSOD and make my own builds.
Tip: if you want to sound a little bit more clear you can cover yourself and you mic whit a blanket, that reduces the noise of the outside or you family and can improve a little bit the audio, not that it's bad but it definitely could be better
I might have to try that since I do so many takes just due to my family being loud. Hope it works better than my current setup of waiting for them to settle down before trying to record a 3 second clip lol
@@CarrotIsBad you can try doing you recordings in the night or morning but that's it's next level thinking, also it's no a big deal, you can also change the cinfig of the mic or the audio in Sony Vegas.
Glad to help
Thank you for your efforts and help. Very good construction and skill was a good help, albeit with small changes
Idk about you but I always get parkour aced. I cancel my reload with a melee. Also I always try to use fast reloading guns like the Gewehr 3. Also when you use a nade launcher to bust through enemy lines, I believe it would be best if you could sprint and reload at the same time. Idk just my thing i guess
I agree, although I usually don't have enough points for it
Having to create a solution to a problem that wouldn’t be there without the skill along with 0 tangible benefits doesn’t make it an advantage, it makes it a disadvantage.
Respect for kknowley slow mo moments where he speaking like be drunk or stoned
Would the light weight vest be any good with anarchist?
suit is better, it takes 2 seconds to recharge armor compared to the lbv's 3 seconds which will save you more often than the lbv
I have question :D.
4:14 how did you change position of lmg :D
Perfect View Model mod
7:26 Love-colored Master Spark. Carrot has good taste in music.
Were you playing as Ethan?
Yea lol
"u have to commit to every reload"
Melee cancel: "am I a joke to you?"
Also I don't find myself canceling my reloads almost ever
Even on ds? Just curious
Holy shit it feels like forever since I started playing tarkov and moved away from payday 2 but it was only 2 months damn anyway yea
@@wifflewaffel aight, good to know though since I feel the same way. The only time I cancel is when I'm meleeing an enemy
Seriously, parkour aced is hated for no reason. You should never even be reloading out of cover.
@@LeaveMeAloneFBI i think the hate is kind of justified since reload cancel is very handy, and usually more comfortable than melee cancelling, and about reloading out of cover, first of all, there are just sometimes where you dont have any other option, or your brain just auto reloads accidentally, and even ignoring realoading out of cover, its not like an enemy can suddenly rush in front of you and shoot while you are defenseless.
Question: What does BB stand for?
F0xiiNat0r first perk in anarchist blitz krieg bop
I wonder if this has been done on youtube, but I wonder what would be the most complementary perk combinations in a team of 4 (loud or stealth) on payday 2.
I would say probably crew chief, hacker, maniac, and a stoic. Everyone just buffs the stoic to godlike status.
@@CarrotIsBad maniac? because of the damage reduction?
that viewmodel is nuts
I’ve seen worse tbh. I just use what I find comfortable and what I’m used to in other games.
@carrot do you happen to have a good DSOD shotgun build? For those of us who aren't quite to your level of aiming or have a mediocre machine and don't play too often.
I'd like to see you do a 2/9 stoic build :D
Your wish came true
I tried really hard to focus on the BB armor regen... but man I really need those touhou doujin music's names :(
Wait but um, if his build is wrong, can you provide the fixed build? :D Because I wanna try Anarchist on DSOD but now Im stuck with just this commentary of a wrong done build.
Check the comment I just pinned
@@CarrotIsBad Thank you very much sir :-)
what is infamy reduction? (you may be as descriptive as possible with the answer)
The first 4 or 5 (can't remember) infamy levels provide you skill point cost reduction for moving up a tier.
Each spec of infamy of the first ones gives you 2 skill point cost reduction to reach the top skill of a tree.
Look at this build:
pd2builder.netlify.app/?s=1Q3Q0-90-90-8&p=e&a=0&t=4&d=3
Infamy's cost reduction helps you shave that 2 skill point cost to reach higher tiers.
You want to reach the top one, left is with infamy, middle is without infamy. If you're not interested in the additional skills, you shave 2 points.
The cost reduction means you need only 16 points to reach the tier 4 skills (as opposed to 18).
Pre-infamy 3.0, infamies 2-5 could (and should) be spent to apply this discount to one of the skill trees per infamy (except Fugitive, because you get that as a bonus for getting any of the others). When Carrot says Kknowley's build could be done at infamy 3, it could actually be done at infamy 2 because Fugitive would come free with the Enforcer discount.
With infamy 3.0 the discounts are given for all trees at infamy 1, so it's now a moot point for PC.
Are converts on anarchist that important cos I’ve never put a single point into that tree with my builds and they work well
Arguably yes, as they can give you extra health, which gets converted into armor to help reach certain breakpoints.
@@timmyp7 I get those from iron man basic for a 2 shot armour for less points
@@DM-wn8jm That's another way to get it, yes, but jokers provide way more than that, making it worth the investment. Namely drawing aggro to prevent you from taking damage and activating your god mode prematurely.
Kevkild recently uploaded a solo run of Diamond Heist getting kills with nothing but jokers if it gives you any idea.
@@timmyp7 very true, I have tried but it’s too many skill points for me
@@DM-wn8jmand getting to iron man isnt?
15:50 why does the zeal have an OVE9000 saw
Hello. I'm sorry for my bad english.
I'm playing an anarchist build with a pulimet. With a high risk of detection - no slope. What do I need as a son-in-law in the armor slot? A simple jacket? Is it possible to play with the "Anarchist" perk without dodging?
Anarchist is not a dodge deck so does not need dodge skills. On lower difficulties any armour can work but on Death Sentence suit is best as you have the fastest armour regen
For the anarchist build, since iunno who else to ask lmao, would it be wort getting optical illusions alongside Jokers? And, if I get rid of body expertise, is Surefire aced at all useful?
Sure fire can still be useful as a backup for when you miss, but’s it’s not worth the 9 points imo. Unless you have nothing else to spend it on, I wouldn’t get it.
@@CarrotIsBad I'd rather spend it on getting shotgun skills and Overkill aced for the one shot on heavies, two shot headshots on specials, etc. Or maybe drill skills, saws, etc. WAY better places to spend it.
parkour aced is pretty okay if you have something like mac 10 with speed reload. It allows you to both run to cover and reload.
Came here extra late and my eyes hurt since I saw whatever the hell that ictv anarchist with no jokers is
TheKnowleys dodge build actually works especially when you compare it with bb3croft Dodge build.
B33croft has garbage builds lol and bullseye doesn’t help with damage, wtf u on lol
@@xA0SAA b33croft doesn't make terrible builds. some issues yes but builds will or can have those. theyre not bad especially compared to knowley's old build.
in general beecroft's and knowley's old builds are pretty weird/bad, one might be better than the other but its really similar, but they also improved on their build making as time went on
Hey carrot! Can you link me your build to the Comando + bulletstorm? 13:16

Alright, I've got one question about 1:40
Can't you reload cancel by just...meleeing the air?
takes too long
@@youtub-fj8mu are you serious
@@shiori00 On Death Sentence one down sometimes your death is less than 0.5 away
@@youtub-fj8mu especially with weapons such as ice pick, electric brass knuckles, and come on, would you really melee a dozer or something in front of you????
@@xA0SAA um, yes? Have you used an ice pick against a dozer (with the melee build up) - the number of times I had to reload in front of a dozer with 20% hp left, I melee them and they die is countless. So yeah, I would swing an ice pick at a dozer, because it works. Also gives CR805B's 0.75s reload with quickpull mag for whatever else I need.
Surprisingly reliable on DW, msotly reliable on DS - but betterr than nothing. 1600%dmg +200% is a lot without a faceplate
Damn, when I watched that video and he was using ictv with anarchist I literally died. How is that "the best 2020 build" xD
Ictv grinder >>> ictv anarchist

What wa that Izhma build your on no mercy?
What do you think of ballistic vest on anarchist? I've been running it for a long time on my lmg anarchist, I've tried suit, but if feels like I have less leeway with suit
U get 2 sec recharge time for suit and 3 sec for lbv
On DW and below, other armours are fine but on DS you should only use suit
I dropped my Anarchist ictv build on dw for a simple armorer ictv build. I dont comprehend why you would ever want to use it on ds. If you Go for an ds ictv build, just use stoic...
The point of parlour aced was to get sneaky bastard as fast as posible
ye but in the process of trying to get sneaky bastard like that you end up wasting 4 points on inner pockets aced, and as mentioned in the video parkour aced is dangerous, a setup i like a bit more is duck and cover aced, parkour and inner pockets basic, and either dire need or shockproof aced, you would be using 1 more point but its better than losing 4 points on inner pockets aced, and you keep the reload sprint cancel
Sneaky bastard is a waste if you have to ace it to get max dodge
what hud do you use
Whats rhe buzzsaw build?
2:50 Just use the 5/7 thru walls and than u should be totally fine
Look up 2kliksphilip talking about how to make any mic sound good but other than that gonna apply some of this to my builds
What is the perk deck
You need to make an unlimited damage build
I love ur buzzsaw build
I agree that sneaky bastard is terrible, but the community thinks that the extra 10 dodge is worth it... It might be useful with some other dodge perk decks but not really rouge.
i dont think that the point investment is so horrible if you mange to get your detection to 4 for the basic version to be full benefit, but you really only go for sneaky bastard when you are going full on dodge, it doesnt matter what dodge deck you are using, but it is true that going full on dodge is just not too reliable
The anarchist lmg buzzsaw can you show me that one
It’s not any specific build, I threw it together in like 20 seconds and even had points left over. All I did was use this: pd2builder.netlify.app/?s=0-8xc1000100V0010-71c&p=e&a=0&t=6
Which isn’t even a full build. You can use that as a base if you would like.
@@CarrotIsBad thx
@@CarrotIsBad what better buzzsaw or ksp
Buzzsaw outputs more damage but I prefer ksp since it’s more controllable.
Thx
Omg this hud, so fun
hey, do you think a suit stoic build is a good idea?
Suit stoic is super fragile compared to even lbv stoic. I wouldn’t recommend it.
@@CarrotIsBad alright, thanks for your attention and advice
Seeing knowleys comment saying he'll take things like this on board in future is great, but it's pretty shitty in terms of work ethic or just simply in terms of integrity towards your own content not to do some research into the vast amount of information available for payday 2 before making a build for 1 such a large audience who will take it as gospel and 2 that will make higher difficulties more difficult than they need to be for players trying DS/DSOD and therefore putting them off the game entirely. Considering how much research knowley does for his "story of payday 2" videos that I'm a big fan of, made his lackluster build even more painful and then to call it "best build" is sheer fuck hubris.
Guess I’m playing with suit now
whats "bb" tho (never used anarchist)
BB is blitzkrieg bop, one of the perks for anarchist that is effected by the armor you are wearing.
But...sniper will kill you in one shot if you use the suit with Frenzy
Don’t use frenzy. It doesn’t help this build whatsoever as I explained in that one math part. It’s not useful for the weapons and isn’t useful for the tanking either.
Snipers will kill you in one shot anyway, welcome to anarchist
Not exactly. Suit anarchist with a convert gets 241 armor and snipers do 240. As long as you play carefully around sniper spots, you do still have emergency armor and health since this doesn’t use frenzy.
In kknowley's stoic build, he doesn't take bullseye aced, which I'm fairly certain you can use that to get extra health back?
Nope, Bullseye does nothing with Stoic.
@@fascistlobster That's unfortunate. Would be pretty useful.
@@JCtheSpy ikr ;(
this build cant be used anymore. u have to spend more to be able to get the fourth skill than the builder applies. or can i do something about that
Infamy levels lower the amount of skill points needed to equip skills
owo fix stol3nbuild plz
22:01 XDDDD
10:12 um, ackually you would only need two, since one of the reductions is fugitive 🤓
Im just gonna say it your a way beter player the b33croft and knowley. Ever sins i started your advice i actually survive way beter. Especial with anarchist builds i do have a question tho
What is that mod called you pointing at 6:21 i recently finaly started to mod payday and i think that mod would be nice
I have my mod list in the description of any of my gameplay based videos. Go to the diamond run I posted last week and it should all be there. The specific mod that does that is Additional PocoHud Modifiers.
uh no u can melee to reload cancel why does nobody know about this.
Takes longer than sprint cancelling, and you might accidentally waste bloodthirt if you got it
Well, i tought you would make it wayyy faster
I just had other video ideas I guess. I did want to do it eventually, I just didn’t know when I would get to it.
@@CarrotIsBad also i love when ppl call thier build "the Best". Than you just take a Look , and see ICTV anarchist. Also pepole started using sociopath (badger made a vid on it). Jeesus christ u wont belive how many pepole i saw using sociopath on ds, who would Just run for Melę kills.
your gameplay footage kinda reminds of my recorded gameplay xd
penetraction
Most of his "builds" are incredibly flawed and don't go in synergy (like shitcroft).
I thought this vid would have a section for small brains where you literally say "use these skills and these weapons" ._.
I figured that it would be clear for others to make a build by showing what not to do from this one, but I guess it’s my fault for assuming something like that. Here’s a build you could run that is similar and would outperform this:

@@CarrotIsBad are you not best using a krinkov as the m60 lacks dps?
The krinkov does beat the m60 in dps by miles, but it doesn’t have the ammo efficiency to stand alone without ammo bags. I did also want to keep the original build concept instead of just changing everything out.
@@CarrotIsBad I tried using this build will Brenner modded to 128 damage, because I don't have last weapon pack yet. Seems to work out fine, but not that accurate as M60
Nű uwu owo
I hate how everyone labels builds with "best build" to trap new players. Even uncle geldgeil doesn't call his, "best muscle" or "best armorer" as I'm sure he knows there can be changes and it's all his preference, And he's AMAZING at the game. I'm glad b33croft stopped saying his were the best. I think he deleted my comment telling someone who struggled to go look at kevkild or uncle geldgeil for build advice lol.
Also KKowley's console build wasn't the "best" in anyway or form, I can confirm as a console player.
Ok boomer
"Sneaky Bastard is a Terrible Skill" It's impossible to run a build using dodge at it's fullest without sneaky bastard. Specially a build with Rogue. Change my mind

Anarcist is best with the light balistic vest becouse you have the same regen speed but MUCH MORE armour (70)
. On death sentence the suit (with anarchist) its still an 1 shot
suit is 2s, LBV is 3s, suit can provide wayyyyyyy better armor gating than LBV can and that extra armor regened from LBV is useless cause itll basically be gone in the next shot you take. anarchist is meant to be an armor gating deck
same with LBV, the 70 armor you get will still be 1 shot
@@TehGamingNuub 270 armour is 2 shots. 200 armour is 1 shoot
Thats without a joker, with a joker you get 241 armor with suit and that is enough to tank a sniper, and even then, its rare ur gonna be at full armor with anarchist
and at 7:25 you can see how suit saved
if you kev had LBV in that, he would not have survived
