Best Assault Rifles DPS Tier List in TU22 PTS The Division 2

[@McGuns17]

I totally forgot to record footage for the changes of The Chameleon, even though I show them on the Spreadsheet. So on the 2nd phase of the PTS I will be making a separate video for it. IT'S SUPER GOOD 😅

[@mrumbrella9961]

I'll never understand who in their right mind would even think of nerfing weapons in a PvE game. If anything, they should buff the unused items so players can have a choice to cycle between their favourite items.......AND HAVE FUN. YEAH REMEMBER FUN???? The very thing we've been missing in video games lately???? Nerf them in the PvP if players are complaining. Who's complaining in PvE??? The npcs??? What in the actual Ubifuk????

[@visionarywriter]

The devs want you to lose as much as possible to keep you playing the game.

[@McGuns17]

You said it best 🤝🏽 preach

[@rs1357]

It’s Ubish1t what do you expect

[@welds8424]

When you have the exact same faceroll experience because everything is as powerful as the next thing then you'll just start bitching about things being too easy. Don't kid yourself 😂

[@Elysian-III]

Delulu ass thinking 😂😂😂

[@snieves4]

Carbine 7 is my fav but hasnt been as good for me. Hopefully the buff improves it

[@thanhtong2281]

Regarding Eaglebearer - nerf on base weapon damage, but got buffed on +5% CHC & +5%CHD. Also buff in 50rpm. I think might be a buff overall. If you have the chance to test out DPS in the range, be great

[@McGuns17]

I will on phase 2. I know a LOT of players like to compare against the Elmos, so I will do that for sure

[@Tintin.au.Congo.chinois]

EB take +50 RPM?

[@yuteruka]

i think EB will still remain at strongest on AR. yes it will get nerfed damage but rpm increased 800 to 850 and the mods are even greater.

[@apeshitzz8326]

It’s weird how people just totally ignore the fact that WE PUT a lot of time and material in these weapons and gear………AND NO BODY IS TALKING about it!!!…….no disrespect Mac, but it doesn’t matter if it a lot or a little that’s been adjusted…….that is material we can’t get back, and more Importantly the TIME WE can’t back. I’m not saying everybody should be like me, but I play this game with a purpose. I play this game to get away from the world I like. I like the mechanics of building something seeing my results……(specifically a shooter game like this) and for someone to just come up and just take away or reconfigure what I built is very frustrating. At this point I lack the motivation to play at times. Sometimes I turn on my Xbox on and turn it right back off because I’m tired of being disappointed….. like this whole XP farming event thing they’re find away to screw us over in the future

[@Derivedwhale45]

Because it's a grind & we'll adapt as always. Some of us been grinding for things & such for over a decade in both destiny & division games & we'll be doing it again whenever Division 3 is released. It's all part of the grinders lifestyle & obviously things you work really hard on wasn't going to last forever, thus why no one is complaining about it, we expect it n adapt to new challenges

[@HOTSMOKE100]

I agree, too many are talking about nerfs aren’t so bad, go play something else,etc. When others recognize that it’s your time and effort that’s being nerfed.

[@apeshitzz8326]

@@Derivedwhale45 not necessarily what I wanted to hear but absolutely true 👍🏿👌🏿😎

[@ianmcdonald3053]

All these nerfs isn't about the player base needing a refresh, its all about Massive designing div 3 and how things will work by using us as guinea pigs, why is no one talking about that!

[@majinboo6377]

Lol yes, div 2 is just a test for div 3. They knew it since year 1 release disaster. Div 1 is their best project so far.

[@leemanpark8407]

These developers remind me of the bosses at my work

[@McGuns17]

What is your favorite AR?? Did it get nerfed? 😅

[@DOCGAMESRJ]

MY TOP 5 TU22 1° eagle bearer 2° Famas 2010 ( I still cry because I don't have magazine 60 ) 3° Saint Elmo 4° AK - M 5° the bighorn

[@Vv20vV]

Shield Splinter & Famas are my 2 favorite ARs. Some of these changes are so minuscule to the weapons, makes me wonder why did they even bother? 🤷🏻‍♂️ I guess just to say they changed some I guess 🤷🏻‍♂️ That rpm buff to the Invisible Hand sounds interesting 🤔 Might have to go ahead & start expertising mine now… Also looking forward to the Dark Winter Perfect Killer buff as well.. Killer was always a great talent! The Oroboros needed a nerf, so I’m not bothered by that at all (I play PvP).

[@InvaderDoom05]

some nerfs or balances make absolutely no sense

[@McGuns17]

Exactly! 🤷🏽‍♂️

[@majinboo6377]

St elmos is supposed to be used optimally for dual ar. First, use the elmos until u get the shock ammos, then switch to secondary ar of ur choice. Only use the shock ammo from elmos when against named enemies, rogue agents and hunters. U can use hard hitting ar or high rpm ar to ur preference. Both use flatline as talent or perfect flatline using kingbreaker, chest piece u can use spotter, obliterate or glass canon. Although striker is still the best despite the 20% damage reduction at 200 stacks. Elmos being the best ar because it has the best and highest mods value and the best weapon handling a.k.a statistics overall. The new exotic ar strigga is better damage but easily overshadowed by elmos performances. Eagle bearer like chameleon needs to be at close range to be fully utilized.

[@daetros1626]

I really think people are sleeping on Invis Hand. With the +20 mag it'll have 62 rounds on tap, with buffed damage per round and the 22% additional ROF. That's a per round buff, a huge mag size buff, and 10% more ROF compared to live. I'm sure with a damage talent there will be a few that push it out, but a flat 22% damage boost in the form of ROF is just incredibly good. I'm guessing it will be in the top 5 even after damage talents are factored in, and ROF is the most scalable damage modifier in the game. It'll be interesting to see how the meta shapes up. I maxed out an invis hand and a savage wolverine to test out against shield splinterer. I'm planning to use Wolverine for close range, and either Invis or Splinterer for mid. If i try the new exotic holster ill probably try Wolverine with Dark Winter.

[@McGuns17]

Smart man I like your thinking 🤝🏽 yup I will be testing the Invisible Hand a lot in PTS phase 2 for sure

[@PalaPolo91]

I would like to play with the Egale but I have a lot of trouble keeping up with its recoil so it stays warm in my trunk

[@chankoksoon]

Will the bighorn auto fire in scoped mode as in TU 22?

[@DOCGAMESRJ]

I'm so glad you're back ! I also made some videos soloing the legendaries

[@McGuns17]

Oh nice! 🫡

[@jester8832]

Think you could do a rifle tierlist? I plan to use them when the full auto drops

[@DustDemonTwilight]

elmo nerfed but things like determined headhunter is the same one tap everything

[@andypay76]

Really good video! GG's on that! What is that AK skin?! Really nice, blue metallic. I cant find it in my character:)

[@McGuns17]

Thank you. The skin is a special skin only for this specific AK. I believe it was avaible from previous season but now it's gone

[@Scruffy04]

Great content, thanks! Are you able to do one for the SMG group?

[@McGuns17]

will be working on that on next PTS phase 2, so soon

[@d15p4tch6]

I love how you went through the actual numbers from in-game - really nice to get the raw data!

[@aszfaltmatyi7781]

This video is very very useful ! Thx ! Great job !

[@joshrobinson9474]

How would the invisible hand fare vs the shield splinterer or another high end ar with a weapon talent?

[@joshrobinson9474]

Better yet is the invisible hand even viable now that they only raised the rpm by 3%

[@Mangafan_TV]

Hi my friend, I had posted comments on your other videos for your return but for some reason I don't see them anymore so I don't know if you can see them. For my part I have been playing with the classic FAL for a few now but I don't understand why in the table you show us the version of the classic FAL is slightly less good in modded DPS sustain, it seemed to me that you could have the same mods on the FAL variants. That said I can't wait to test the Strega live with the Negotiator's Dilemma despite its nerf on the distance of marked enemies. Take care of yourself my friend. Peace.

[@McGuns17]

No I didn't see any comment of yours recently. The reload time difference affected the modded Sustain DPS calculation. I will correct it they should be the same, only strega has faster reload time as far as I know

[@novaeclipse9536]

when does tu22 drop

[@snieves4]

Nice vid. Subscribed.

[@McGuns17]

I appreciate it

[@2old4games37]

AR is good but i prefer SMG. I would like to see excelfile with SMG and together with AR.... anyway good work :-)

[@McGuns17]

Will do, I did it before for last Title update so i will do it again

[@2old4games37]

My Love ist smg named the Anger, but it will get a big nerv

[@deadweight194]

Fine whatever nerf the strikers pack and Elmo’s all you want but if they start messing with the weapon damage on memento or just nerf it in general, that’s when I draw the line. (Joke of course) real talk tho I’m up for a challenge for building new builds here and there but hotshot determined u have to admit when is it gonna get its turn? If anything skill builds should be getting buffed because I would love to use sticky bomb explosive more effectively in legendary. Side note: PLEASE ADD OPEN WORLD LEGENDARY AND ADD MORE LEGENDARY MISSIONS

[@lukascroasmun7050]

AUG and invisible hand meta is here

[@joshrobinson9474]

Not necessarily. If you take a shield splinterer and add the dps from the weapon talent it may come out higher

[@hood999111]

Hello could you please do lmg's i main an RPK and it seems like they nerfed it to hell.

[@McGuns17]

👍🏽 will do

[@itsjuicyjoel]

the new exotic dmgs were kinda shown in pts, the base weapons the exotics borrow their stats from were in the high end new stat charts

My favourite exotic eb getting a buff :)

[@itsjuicyjoel]

its nerfed, it lost a lot dmg and its dps is less than non pts EB. Its actually now, stat wise, nearly identical to st elmo just a little stronger

[@littletweeter1327]

once again my beloved invisible hand on top. i feel bad for controller players, theyre missing out on lots of fun with it

[@McGuns17]

They nerfed the talent on it again on pts phase 2 back down to 15%

[@e1-131]

Smg’s ???

[@ThatHowBaconIsMade]

What pisses me off is everybody that grinned their ass off for the exotic comps just to get some nerfs

[@ThatHowBaconIsMade]

The shield splinter got nerfs on the RPM, Mag size, but you can build around that

[@McGuns17]

True, and the exotic components are so hard to get compared to the other materials

[@KarlDelaney99]

​@@ThatHowBaconIsMadeRemember though perfect optimist got a buff

[@ThatHowBaconIsMade]

@@KarlDelaney99 yea it got a buff, but they reduced the rpm and mag size at the same time ✌

The Division 2 Dev's team don't like the Players being More Powerful than there Precious AI in the Game and they should just leave the Game alone

[@graphosencrenoir4006]

why nerfing the TAR mag ??? it was only point advantage to use it and not FAMAS....now will be garbage compare with FAMAS

[@Snipe165]

Why why why !!! What have they done to the EB !! 🤢 stop ruining the Gun. 💔 they give it a great buff made it a good gun again then just crucified and put it in its grave… leave it alone for F- sake 😅

Exactly, what the hell is the point for its damn nerf like all I'm understanding from the damn pts is just don't use anything but fucking rifles so damn stupid

@Petrokullus nice assumption it was on my feed I seen a pic of the EB n the word nurf so I decided to comment didn't even watch the video nice try tho 🤣🤣

[@darshans6321]

To the people who think nerfs are not required : No dev would like to see people running around with 1 gun and 1 build... You all have enjoyed St. ELMO'S for a year.. I think it's time to move on... Try something else other than Striker's and Elmo's.. Maybe you'll find the game refreshing

[@ClassifiedRogueOG]

Pve players crying for 5 crit chance and 5 crit damage for the Elmo's and ouro nerf is crazy . This is mostly pve ,dont get confused and saying pve only.Also dont forget the first game was mostly PvP so obviously in the second one there also will be.If you want a PVE only game where everything gets buffed go play TFD they also buffed freyna too and she's free.

[@Elysian-III]

I love all the hate in the comment section. But lets face it, yall are crying that this game is stale and too easy. Be careful what you wish for, you might just get it afterall. And it's not like this is gonna make the game unplayable. Yall are so f'ing sensitive 😂😂😂 Just leave the game if you hate it this much
