The Division 2 |INTERESTING INVESTIGATIONS: VERSATILE| How viable is it really?

[@blakemorris2753]

Also, I might be an outlier, but i actually do tend to incorporate my secondary weapon into my build consideration and swap to it quite often; especially when running Coyotes. The guy I used to run with all the time when i was just starting div2, and was effectively my mentor for my first 1000 shd levels, drilled into me the ingrained habit of *always* utilizing the quick swap technique on m/kb setup. It goes quite a ways to mitigating the dps loss of swapping and is quite the advantage in being able to situationally adapt when shit hits the fan and you *need* a hot weapon in hand pouring rounds into an immediate threat. I never run without fog of war (no minimap) and can tend to aggressively push into enemy positions and I've always loved running a fast hands/unwavering smg to deal with any nasty surprises that pop up in my face

What's the quick swap technique?

[@blakemorris2753]

@@d15p4tch6 Instead of swapping directly to secondary from primary, and vice versa, hit 3, to initiate a swap to pistol. *Immediately* hit 2, or 1 if swapping to primary, and you will swap much quicker. What I assume is happening is that even though you are not actually drawing your sidearm, the swap speed to it gets applied to both putting away and drawing your other weapons

D15P4TCH, you are truely a Div 2 savant. Appreciate your deep dive vids regardless of the subject matter, but have been contemplating a build with Versatile for some time now. Going to add it to my System Corruption DZ biild, I'm hoping it will give me that final burst of DPS I need to defend myself against rogues. Thanks so much! 👊😎

[@d15p4tch6]

Wow! Thanks! Good luck in the DZ Agent!

[@blakemorris2753]

The reload is the biggest issue for me, its why my brain went straight to versatile in your ninja bike short proposing it reload both weapons. That, along with a movement speed bonus, would allow agents to potentially be able to always be confident in always swapping to a fresh mag and be able to reposition to the appropriate distance to maintain the versatile buff

[@racingsquirrel238]

I only use this in the DZ. I run 4 to 6 blue, technician, flatline on my M870/Super 90, and perfect unhinged on Swap Chain. Chest varies from Uzina Perfect Spotter or Unbreakable. I run three yaahl, Fox's and Contractors. So that's up to theee sources of separate multiplicatives and two multiplicative factors on the gear.

It's Amazing in Descent! I'm a terrible Player and was Able to push 20 loops the other day with Versatile Stacked, a Grey M16 and a Green super 90.

[@d15p4tch6]

A gray M16??? Lol you are a glutton for punishment. Glad to hear it works well in Descent - gunslinger is actually underrated in that mode too since it's a bigger damage bonus. Easier to manage swapping when you don't have to worry about reloads with Chatter or Bullethell

[@grumpyoldman6503]

It's good because the duration extension (and power). Works very well with gunslinger.

[@fogowar2022]

I was going to say this too. In Descent, it slaps. Run and gun with an SMG and Shotgun. Constant 100% AMP inside 15m because they're different weapon types. Just like in the video but with more damage and more duration.

Excellent video.

Hey thanks!

[@billybruticus4719]

4pc hunters ceska with versatile and named chest with perfect companion. Scorpio and smg with fast hands. Good damage and reloads aren't bad. You also have damage when versatile isn't active

[@grumpyoldman6503]

Just clunky to swap all the time is the bottom line.
