Thank you for this video. Itâs explained so well. I played this game often up until a few years ago. These guides will be amazing for showing me things I never knew and reminding whatâs going on because I have all of these dope builds and have no idea whatâs going on lol. Thanks for reminding us of the 9k stamina. TOTALLY forgot about that
2 things. 1 if you are in a group with someone using high electronics and bleed seekers it will mess up your bleed. The 2 bleeds clash with each other. And 2. In pvp u need to get that crit chance to 60%. Its crucial. And rate of fire is also super important in pvp. Makes the bleed hit faster. If u are at 60 chance then use the tactical scaner. Adds More crit damage. Have fun agents
i can confirm that, even on pvp The knly problem it's the urban dmr have an slow RPM buy hit really hard, I remember I did 400k damage if I remember well
How do you manage to hit a human opponent 10 times in a row with the slow MDR where you have to trigger every shot? Because otherwise you won't get the bleed. A Bullfrog hits almost 15 times in one second? High ROF is mandatory with Predator.
@s.s.5970 In PvP in a highly dynamic 1on1, you might be able to land 3-4 hits from a distance with a bit of luck. But then what? I have my doubts, even though I really like MDR.
Predâs a fun build. In fact, it was my first classified set that became a favorite. The House smg synergizes with the DPS and even more so when you use a heavy spring mag instead of an extended mag. I never knew that Pred was bugged with the healing stations. Then again, I donât think it wouldâve made too much of a difference since thereâs still other ways to become immune to the bleed. Anyway, thanks for the video. I actually reinstalled this game again for old times sake.
For PVE you definitely want as much DTE as you possibly can on all your builds, but especially so with Pred because of how the Pred bleed damage is calculated (in short DTE applies more than once which makes it the most important damage multiplier on a Pred build). Granted not all targets in PVE are elites, but challenging missions and heroic incursions are elites only and so are 4 of the 7 legendaries. On the 3 legendary missions where you do get redbars and veterans as well, elites are not just very common, but also the tankiest targets which makes it worth having lots of DTE even on those. So ideally Ferocious in the free slot (with Destructive & Predatory) and as many DTE mods as you can to still unlock Destructive. The AK47 makes sense to get a bigger bleed tick but for me that's not worth the loss in straight bullet DPS against the top tier ARs and it also handles atrociously. It also takes you longer to apply bleed because of its lower ROF. The meta ARs LVOA/LWM4 are as always a good choice, but unlike with Striker where ROF is king, with Pred so are the G36 and ACR variants. Both handle great, hit a bit harder for a larger bleed tick, but still have a respectable ROF.
Agree. Destructive is preferable because the armour has to go first. The best AR in mid-range is and remains the M4. For close range the House. I'll throw the Bullfrog into the ring again because of the higher ROF, but although it's hardly less stable than the M4, it's somehow less manoeuvrable.
I use a 4 piece pred with a 3 piece alpha bridge and it works pretty well. I use m4 with an mdr secondary. Only use MDR on bosses really, and I find what works best is using m4, giving bleed, then swapping to mdr while bleed is in effect.
Yehhhh thanks soo much pred explanation..... Can you also try to do Firecrust?? One of the most forgotten gear set... But can be handy in group too.. what do you think??
Very didactic video, I've just built another Predator build, and you came with this video, I've made G36 Enhanced + Liberty (Stamina 9.177) Liberty - Destructive + Predatory + Brutal G36 Enhanced - Destructive + Vicious + Focused Yours looks melt the NPC's I'll exchange G36 Enhanced for Black Market AK 74, this one looks works very well.
Lol, l didnt pay attention, was thinking hmmnnnnn new gearset, Div 2, as thats what l play, so normally what YT normally plays me.... then l looked at screen and thought, hang on, language is right, but the shooting range is wrong, new, what????.... Ooohhhhhh Div 1. In Div 2 this is a little like using the Strega AR over an Ongoing Directive +Vile Mask +The Courier backpack. I love the visual aesthetic of Div 1, but cannot play 3 time sinks (stalker 2 just dropped) GG
The builds are there to use, pve or pvp. It doesn't matter. Striker, Nomad, Pred, Banshee, Alpha Bridge....etc. Just go for it. The only thing you can't do, is ....cheating. And there are so many...it's really sad.
I thought it was so stupid they nerf striker in dz but pred was untouched. Pred was too OP. It was the only set that in order to fight against it you had to specialize your builds to have resistence attributes. You land 10 hits and you win. The ultimate noob build. Sorry im still salty over predators mark to this day.

I have to say, I just bought Div 1 for PC and im starting over. Finding your channel and seeing this info again is refreshing. Deff got a new sub.

6 piece pred with the MDR is so good at demolishing things... assuming theres no LMB heal box that just nullifies pred
i can confirm that, even on pvp
The knly problem it's the urban dmr have an slow RPM buy hit really hard, I remember I did 400k damage if I remember well

@yutani2225 or you get the distance or

MDR with 6 classified Nomad or Predator just slaps
*patiently waits for Final Measure explained* âšïļ
Another great video, Livid. Even extra brownie points without a script!
Agents of culture...glad to see you once more and a big thank you to our humble host Livid Fray ðĐ

One of my favorite gearset ð

Hi, I love your content! Itâs really good and very knowledgeable and constructive.
Can you do a video about settings for pvp? âĪâĶ Thanks so much!
I use a 4 piece pred with a 3 piece alpha bridge and it works pretty well. I use m4 with an mdr secondary. Only use MDR on bosses really, and I find what works best is using m4, giving bleed, then swapping to mdr while bleed is in effect.
My pred is based only on critsâĶ46% crit chance and 135% crit damage and is working great even is not full optimazed ð
Yehhhh thanks soo much pred explanation..... Can you also try to do Firecrust?? One of the most forgotten gear set... But can be handy in group too.. what do you think??
Very didactic video, I've just built another Predator build, and you came with this video, I've made G36 Enhanced + Liberty (Stamina 9.177)
Liberty - Destructive + Predatory + Brutal
G36 Enhanced - Destructive + Vicious + Focused
Yours looks melt the NPC's I'll exchange G36 Enhanced for Black Market AK 74, this one looks works very well.
Everyone runs pred already ð i cant stand it lol
But this was a good explanation for the gear set nonetheless â ðĨðĐ
Agreed, just getting the well known one out of the way, then we get into the nitty gritty sets ðŦļðŦ·
I always liked pred, but I haven't been able to get all the pieces. ðĒðĒðĒ
You will get them! ð

I agree, making this video was tough. I favor it in pve but will never catch me using it in the dark zone
