The Division | Best Weapons in Patch 1.8 | In Depth Analysis

In today's video we are going to compare the damage output of every single weapon in The Division against each other to see which weapon comes out on top. This includes all the buffs and nerfs that are coming to all weapons in Patch 1.8 as well as the new Exotic SMG, LMG and sniper rifles.

Marco I have to say you got me into making KZbin videos but when you get into numbers you are still the man. Thanks for bringing us your spin on the division. Bravo on another great video bro.

[@new_atlanta7853]

NothingButSkillz I don't play The Division anymore but love watching videos on it. I like your voice too so you earned a sub.

[@NothingButSkillz]

[@NeoCow]

Solid video Marco, thanks for stepping up and crunching the numbers for us. It's pretty awesome when community content creators support each other like this.

[@ThatAbrax]

Outstanding vid dude! Really useful info, I'm sure the community appreciates it! I do! .J

[@ThatAbrax]

MarcoStyle just giving credit where it's due dude :-)

[@jamesmclaughlin4189]

Love the vids MS -- great to be back in the community again and as always I am able to grab a couple of your vids and get caught up quick!

[@mikejleigh]

Amazing work mate, love it. Do you think you will ever do build guides on all the Classified Gear sets? Like you did with Recliamer? That would be great

[@kayleefenix]

well done and thank you for all the hard work marco ^.^

[@RazwelH]

So much thankful with that HUGE data analysis work and PvE/PvP separate testing!!

[@toptophe]

As always a good and detailed video! Thanks for it and for the help it gives

[@jamesrapkins4935]

god bless you Marco for helping out the WOBO. Champion!

[@yanng239]

Thanks a lot to both of you !!

[@aweihl9682]

Great job MarcoStyle, well explained and very informative!

[@bubolzzz]

This is one of the best videos I have watched for TD. Thanks!

[@NSCR2020]

Great vid. Thanks for putting in the effort to help the Division community!

[@tadak2]

Great job Marco. Always love your videos. Glad to see you coming back to Division. :)

[@mohamedsiddiquebinmohamedr7652]

Thanks marco... Appreciate the effort taken...!!

[@vulpiiiiiiix]

Awesome helpful video Marco :) dankjewel en keep it up!

[@jobRobbemond]

Amazing video, really loved it! The charts and personal recommendations really made for a good video showing off what works and what doesn't. Only gripe I would have with this video is that Thompson is spelled without the H in this video. If that's the same in-game, I apologize, but I just thought I'd point it out.

[@gflaglor]

Great stuff as always Marco, you the man

[@13EddO]

THE PROFESSOR!! Thanks for all the information ^^

[@loneeagle689]

you the man, marco. i'd say we need more involved souls in the game's content creation circle like you but you seem to be lifting enough for it all :D sincerely welcoming you back on the grinds, brother. looking forward to your future contents for division personally i dont mind the m4 being up there cos, well, i love the m4 and i think the ar gameplay is one of the best aspects of the game :} gona get meself some of that house goodness tho

[@Solkard]

Thanks for putting this up ahead of the patch, will help a lot in clearing out trash for the new toys

[@ricardorizzini4457]

The work of a Professional ! Amazing in depth review ! +1 Sub

[@WaterHashira_D]

Thanks man, that was very helpful !

[@bombpop2461]

Marco is an absolute class act and one of the reasons I'll be returning for 1.8. Looking forward to more videos!

[@orphncriplr]

Amazingly useful Marco! Thank you for taking the time to make such a detailed video. As I experiment with different weapons and builds, I'm discovering that DPS is a good gauge of a weapon's effectiveness, but ultimately it boils down to player skill, playstyle, and "feel".

[@alphahuner1116]

I got a bolt action rifle and accidentally deleted my caduceus. I like it

[@J_A_G301]

I’m glad u didn’t give up on the division like others I appreciate ur work great stuff keep it up

[@Sixfootdig]

Love your channel Marco

[@amazotron3471]

Outstanding. Very much appreciated. This game is much better because of your work.

[@PuddysDoghouse]

Nice work. Thanks Marco.

[@ace_of_spadesgaming9674]

so, its safe to say LVOA-C are in the M4 category? I use the Tactical M1911. get all mod slots and works pretty well for me. Brutal is second talent and gets me out in a pinch. Also, use it for Hard missions to challenge my skills. makes you get better at headshots while on the move :)

[@DanMcElrath]

Great stuff per usual

[@DavidSchwegler]

Thank you, Marco!

[@Corpu5]

Great work bro, big up

[@834059]

So glad you’ve decided to help Wobo. Good on you man!

Say hello to Brazil marco!! Love Ur channel Bro keep The excelente work and Love on The division!!

[@PerBjarte]

Impresive as always from u

[@cameronmiller5019]

Finally Marco haha just now getting back into the division haven't played for a few months and am lost was looking for info yesterday before 1.8 drops thanks for posting Any other info would be great like stats, attributes, and builds unless most of the 1.7 guides are still usable.

[@mortenhuvastenseth6943]

Thank you for another great video

[@peppaeyez5485]

Tanks man really needed it

[@jimhayward3560]

Great video, cheers 👍🏻

[@skumbagkrucko8996]

I missed that Videos. Thank YoU!!!

[@briangrabowski3757]

On the Marksman Rifle category the Custom M44 has a shorter reload speed and has all 4 mod slots. It can be on par with the M700.

[@oscarrodarte2589]

Have you compared the damage?

[@peterharper9703]

Great Job ty!

[@shadowjack2k]

Just an awesome video on do many levels.

[@davidhaynes9331]

Thx for the info, bro.

[@IDKeffect82]

Glad to see you back brother.

[@DeusDracones]

Little excessive and maybe over the top, but I have to start this by genuinely saying thank you. Not only has my return to The Division from launch been a refreshing experience, but your channel has made the transition much easier. The amount of depth you put into every video is unmatched. I have played numerous games over the years and I have to say you are the only channel I would ever consider donating to in order to continue production of videos. One video I would love for you to do and would donate personally to have is an understanding of the prefixes, or factions, to each weapon. I enjoy several different weapon types. The problem I have is, I have no idea which is truly best in slot to each. For example what is the difference between say a Lightweight M4 to say a Police M4. Regardless, thank you once again and keep on hunting my fellow rogue

[@brellnob]

Great and informative video.

[@SpragginsDesigns]

You’re the best dude. Keep it up

[@perfection597]

Thanks man!

[@mrdonttreadonme3637]

Very nice wobo charts, informative video as always. Hope your mom is recovering well wobo!

[@meidamx]

Thanks for stacking the results first (I did watch the whole thing though 😜)

[@tripstouch1]

Great video thank you..

[@thatmps6_guy748]

Youre the b3st dude. Thanks alot for all of your time and effort

[@MysteriousMaster]

recently started playing again thanks for the tips

[@oleister]

Thank you!

[@scottiepalm8911]

great video. i heard on SOTG they said they were going to increase the RPM of some weapons to make them better is that true? and how did you calculate these numbers since 1.8 isnt out yet? during the PTS?

[@krazykaz1983OG]

Possible to do an analysis of the %weapon damage change from flat damage on gloves and how that will factor in? Also look at best weapon talents with the changes to Adept? Awesome content!

[@GanKtaz]

if only ubisoft put a year 3 into the division....

[@jaredreeves2612]

The Gangsta Dounut, look at the view count now. It’s over 1300. Do not be so quick to judge something.

[@BlondyyAckerman]

I would be happy

[@jaredreeves2612]

As long as they don’t show us pretenders footage & instead give us actual gameplay (the trailers were too smooth, cinematic, & scripted to seem like actual gameplay), focus less on numbers, and give us more of an endgame to look forward to (more missions & higher level cap instead of just The Dark Zone), then The Division 2 would be awesome. Also, having the Cypher Key earned from random boss drops & achievements for the “loot crate” system (I forget what the exact name is) would be awesome.

[@oldschoolhoxton8843]

Jared Reeves you do get cypher key fragments from named elites on a low drop chance

[@jaredreeves2612]

Named Elites are technically bosses, are they not?

[@pimppigeon1712]

Helpful video

[@AHouse-er6vh]

Liked subbed, u da man!

[@caaltaga]

Woah I came back for this patch having the Bullfrog that I really like and got The House (Unforgiving, Deadly) on my very first exotic on patch day; I haven't even used it haha... Didn't even look at it.

[@rbarnes4076]

The pistols are kinda fun in PvE situations.. when I'm running non-silenced weapons I'll sometimes use the pistols to take out strays that aren't part of a large group since you can keep the aggro down.. but its highly situational and not the common usage.

[@vinceA3748]

I just started using snipers in earnest. I have to say that I really like the M700. The Terminal vendor had a fantastic one for sale last week. This thing is really good. I'm able to land head shots pretty well with it. I just got The House last week as well, but haven't tried it yet. Can't wait to give it a whirl. One weapon that has really worked well for me is the First Wave Vector 45 ACP. I must have a good role, because this thing shreds. A random I joined up with in the DZ was impressed and wanted to know what I was using. lol.

[@BBroadnax]

Damn good vid.

[@TukihaMaza]

Widdz and Marcostyle were always the quality division channels

[@Explorerof3]

good video, i just wish you pointed out which model from each subclass is the best option

[@TheRelaxingWord]

I've been waiting for one of these fantasticlly crafted videos to be released 😂😂

[@uglyigor3055]

not again the M4's as always... everyone already has LVOA-C and Lighweight M4.... Really hoped to see the meta change in this regard. Damn.

[@jewelplate]

Nothing changes. As long as they dont significantly buff the low RPMs the burst power of the M4s will always beat all other ARs

[@reonthornton685]

The slower firing AR's just need a damage buff really until their DPS is more or less equal to the higher RPM.

[@MrLutharr]

they get one with the gloves bonus. 12% is calculated for base damage so its not all about rpm

[@reonthornton685]

Not true, because that 12% damage bonus, on lower damage is still factoring the higher RPM of the weapon, which means you're left with more or less the same situation as where you started in terms of balance. The weapons themselves need a direct buff, particularly burst weapons which should be scrapped entirely and made semi auto with higher damage, like the Urban MDR we have, as Burst Fire in a game all about DPS simply does not work.

[@MrLutharr]

got any proof of this?

[@JoseyOaks]

Another great video thank you. If you say 23 CHC - 50 CHD = 11% damage then 46% CHC and 100% CHD will give us 22% more damage? how do we calculate this damage and what is an "ideal" ratio for total CHC to CHD ( SMG and AR ) is there a "magic" ratio we should hit? A lot of players say stack as much CHD as you can, but if you are running as an example 18% CHC on an AR will we really need 110% CHD% + ? thank you!

[@juanortiz6281]

Thanks marco

[@adamshipley5415]

Your side commentary on this video literally is the funniest things I’ve heard all day because it’s all true.

[@Pr1meEv1l]

Good Job Marco. I am actually a returning player. Looking forward to jumping back in

[@relaxnation795]

great work ....

[@Tony-xe7rr]

U the real mvp for this man🙏

[@lmjames33]

The Goat we don't want you playing anyway sissy boy

[@Tony-xe7rr]

LJJ r. ???

[@lmjames33]

The Goat guy in vid says sasg-12 is best shotgun. I was only asking what are the best talents to roll on it? I'd like a good median between PvP and PVE.

[@neltronz]

I got the Tenebrae from a Named Elite, First exotic weapon I picked up the other day after reinstalling The Division. And damn these patches are sweet.

[@darkerpath]

Thanks for the video, really helpful for me who just recently reach level 30 and ready to enter *Dark Zone* solo from begining .. hope can find another *Agent* to prepare at *DZ*

[@philipwamai3243]

Did you get an agent.. I play on PC

[@darkerpath]

@@philipwamai3243 Yep, there's still many players on the game actually and i often get help for legendary mission to get better items.

[@philipwamai3243]

@@darkerpath I have tried the legendary mode and well it's not easy match making

[@darkerpath]

@@philipwamai3243 i don't use matchmaking, i'm add online friend in game.. it's hard to get friend at first, but you will get a friend eventually. There are many nice players that will follow you to help, trust me.

[@barrychung11]

Thanks for doing this, much appreciated. But I have a question, isn't it better to do this video after actual patchnote/datamine values are received? Unless you have inside information being a ETF member but the values might be slightly changed for anything until the patch is actually released?

[@barrychung11]

MarcoStyle That's great to know, thanks for the effort, please keep up the good work!

[@CriticArtist]

Love your work man. Yes I'm late to the game but better late than never. The Division is such an awesome game. End game feels like games back in the day where you earn in game currency to upgrade your build. 👍 my day off tomorrow is sorted

[@brandonderr8419]

Could do a video on how to determine which gear to keep/discard quickly? I always end up with my backpack full of mods that I don't want to throwaway because I don't know if they are that great.

[@Lord02Infamous]

Hey Marco, will you do another video like this when the slower RPM ARs get a base damage increase? Developers said those weapons are getting a buff.

[@scanGfu]

thanks A LOT

[@tz5116]

Hey Marco! How does the 12%dmg-bonus on gloves affect these calculations? Thanks for that video, nice work and I m glad you did it for WOBO.

[@JT-ih2rx]

Using an MG5 alpha bridge build with savage gloves and barrets chest piece, it’s amazing. Question about the M4 does it matter what M4 to use because I can’t get a good lightweight M4 from making them but I have a god roll police M4 is it ok to use that?

[@di4bol1c4l7]

Thanks Marco for picking up the torch for WOBO. He always put out some great videos for the Division in the past with useful information on weapon damage etc. My prayers are with him and his mum.

[@MrJagermeister]

Listening to WOBO’s goodbye video was absolutely heartbreaking. I wish he had set up a gofundme page or something so the community could maybe help him out, maybe get him enough money so he doesn’t have to sell his computer and/or so he can get the internet at his mum’s place. Either way, it’s just such a sad situation to watch your parent go through that and he’s a wonderful human being for stepping up to take care of her.

[@wolfloganj.461]

Thank you for the hard work. Sort of a new player to The Division, will I need all the DLC's to enjoy the game?

[@pzyqux6641]

Wish they would've added an exotic bolt action sniper with a nice unique talent.

[@viperdemonz-jenkins]

just got hungry hog is nice for tearing up groups just don't stop firing and with lone star you never have to reload swap and go.
