[@518blvd3]

I really wish they bring back the exploding effect for the pestilence. Even if they bring the effect back with out the damage, it was a cool effect.

[@TuxedoBandido]

Omg. That is so needed.

[@Romanus-]

Me too. I really wish they would stop nerfing exotics so often. The devs need to make more significant differences between PvP and pve play for weapons. I understand the need to nerf some stuff for PvP(st Elmo’s is making the DZ unplayable IMO. They have to lower power of the shock at the very least as you’re essentially forced to run a build to mitigate shock or run the shock build yourself). However, why nerf an exotic for pve? Who is anyone harming by having OP weapons for killing NPC’s? I don’t get it

[@BlackTestament7]

I finally got one after coming back on PC and I was confused thinking the gun didnt work anymore cause that effect was gone

[@brandonyarosz7439]

I wish they got rid of merciless and gave us popcorn rifle from the first game

I think that explosion is related to True Patriot not Pestilence. A long time ago META was Pestilence / TP

[@N3m3sis_Gaming]

Btsu datagloves are incredibly useful, being able to grant overcharge to the whole team, and resetting reviver hives. Cant tell you how many times I've been saved by that. Also, dodge city is amazing. Pair it with regulus, and the bonus damage from the holster scales the explosion of reg. Ec one tap doors.

To combat the chatterbox engagement issue in open world I keep one bullet out the chamber and reload before an assault it helps me keep the rate of fire high

[@weakfrontkick]

I just pop a round-off and run up to the group then reload.

[@WrongKeycard]

I stand by the idea that the Memento and the Scorpio are definitely the best additions for a Hunters Fury DPS rushing build, for PVE that is.

[@voiidpichu4310]

The diamond back is hella amazing with negotator builds. Mark 5 enemy with the first all crits and then reactivate to kill 3 out of 5 enemy with only 1 to 2 bullets

[@grannde_]

It’s even good in pvp, mark 2 people with an AR then use diamondback to shoot their marked skill and deal 2 mill dmg

[@kadenalder7113]

Never run negosh chest I beg

[@slimarkane5735]

Yeah when you’re solo

[@OPgamingstyle]

I love running Ridgeway's pride with a full damage build and using the courier. It's really fun on countdown where I can just land one shot within 15 meters and then the bleed spreads to any targets within 10 meters. So I can easily get 5 bleeds near me for full armor regen. I call it the Alucard build.

[@opratorkilo4649]

Ive been an avid ravy user for the past 2 years and while what you say is valid about the gun it has many unique traits that are like no other gun in the game which makes it hard to master but once you get the hang of it it can be deadly. The right should: the right shoulder proc or the explosive primers are very useful on single hard targets. What i mean by that is any level of right shoulder stack once proc'd causes your target to stagger which outside of the raid can be useful to by yourself a split second to regain control of the fight versus that particular enemy. And if you spam it you can permanently stun lock an enemy or halting aggressive which can save your life if you use it properly, also with a decent dps build the explosive can one shot many shielded enemies namely warhounds and shield carrying enemies hyenas and riker bosses. The left shoulder is a completely different beast which is overall way less involved than the right. Its proc is 2 fold armor and damage to armor plates. Damage to armor plates is situational especially since when i need to bust those plates i just use the right shoulder explosion. But what i love about the left shoulder is if you just focus on cutting down enemies it allows you to stack up bonus armor just like bloodsucker but a much more powerful version of it. Its hard to explain but if youve got a decent dps build and go crazy on the left shoulder you are unkillable. If youve made it this far its obvious i love this weapon, and ill gladly admit im a rav fanboy. But i will admit its not worth the grind if you dont have it your not missing out there are way more easy to us straight forward exotics that have way simpler talents. Hell no exotic has ever threatened my rav outta its slot in my primary loadout but the st elmos has made a damn good case. My point is for owners of the rav to take a second look at it with practice it is deadly. Its got a high barrier to entry but imo the highest skill ceiling of all of the exotics in the roster. Once you're comfortable with all aspects of its handling and talent you can really start bullying the npcs in all levels of content even legendary, plus raids its very useful in both IH and DH

[@Chesterseventythree]

Great post, I'm a Ravi fanboi too, I have 3 in my collection! The reason why I got into raiding was to get this gun, while it is niche, you need to build to its strengths, you can't just insert into any build and expect results which is a limiting factor, that said for destroying dogs, other robotics, and chungas, it's awesome, and I use it in occupied DZ against black tusk for that very reason and because I'm slightly mad! For those interested in getting max bang for the buck out of Geri and Freki, Identity Division Yter has some excellent Ravi builds for all content🥷

[@Romanus-]

Agreed. It’s hard to master but super rewarding

[@opratorkilo4649]

@@Romanus- and thats precisely my point. If youve got it already dust it off and learn it, it will be rewarding. If you dont have it it wont be instantly game changing enough to be worth grinding it out if you dont have a consistent raiding team. My personal favorite exotic i use as a very versatile "TOOL" its never been my primary weapon and my main build does not emphasize it, but it works in most if not all builds as a tool to fall back on to annihilate and bully otherwise hard to kill npcs

[@Romanus-]

@@opratorkilo4649 yep, I’m working on trying to master it as I got it awhile back and haven’t given it enough use. What’s your suggestion for a build to use for the rav?

[@opratorkilo4649]

@@Romanus- like i said its a supplement it thrives on most dps builds with spotter and striker builds for sure. And when im tanking it can be be crazy strong to build up ludicrous bonus armor. I never build around the rav its there as a backup to swiftly eliminate targets i dont feel like dealing with or for extra on the spot survivability when times get tough on a dps build.

[@TuxedoBandido]

glad we had a chance to run. Maybe again soon.

[@readmyusernamecauseitssoreally]

People talk bad about bluescreen, but personally, I love it. People just dont understand how you use it. Think of it like Scorpio and the fact its very much support based. Its talent specializes in target delay, distraction and lockdown in some cases. Scorpio is very linear, while with bluescreen, you unload on your target(s) and you get 2 options, purge stacks or mark more and then purge. One is immediate but only effects one target, one takes more time but is more effective for you and your team and effects multiple targets, allowing for a break in damage on you and your team. Also in the amount of time the status effect is up, most likely youll have half your stacks regained and ready to purge again. Its down side is that it really likes to chew threw your ammo if you dont have a gunner with you. I use it on my FI medic build and its what I prefer over Scorpio, Ive had it im my back pocket ever since the builds conception, and now used for different build, but still.

[@777Thibs]

I have a Mike Tyson build for global events that uses Claws Out, Bloody Knuckles and Lady Death. I use it ONLY to speed through the "Melee X targets 0/20" challenges. It hits for 1.5ish million, so it kills red in one punch on story difficulty. It's pretty funny while listening to the Benny Hill Show theme music...

[@TheKramer841]

If u use the exotic shotgun with that load out u may find it a melee fest as it will take out purples...I believe the "from all sources" buffs add to ur melee damage...if ur running with a cool teammate. Melee away Agent..melee for the win! GG

[@Keirza]

The nerfing that was done to the merciless was the worse thing Division 2 ever did. The beat that exoitic to the ground....and is that an arranged sweet child of mine in the background?

[@Romanus-]

Have you tried the ravenous with umbra and catharsis? I’ve found this is the only viable build for the gun. The extra RPM’s and crit damage on offense and then the ability to completely heal makes it very usable IMO

[@davinathaniel7161]

I like ravenous, its very useful against eletronics, i use it with rifle build, of course theres better weapons but sometimes its very useful, its just not an all time play thing

[@TheMDAxDJK]

On my main build, the Ravenous is my secondary weapon. I bring it out to melt any armored enemies, (Just hit them to max out defense primers, switch to shoot one shot of offense, and switch to primary to do 1000% damage) and those pesky Hyena shield carriers.

[@Khan_M82]

Bloody knuckles are another item used for one shot some raid bosses or doing fast casual raids. I think they can still be utilized well outside of that for pve.

[@molimits2]

@@Romanus- the core is the same (skill tier 6, BTsu, drone and stinger hive), but you can run different skills to use the overcharge and different combos I use unbreakable because I like to able to leave cover alot to pick up the hive, though KM is also great with it. I also like Test Subject and Perfect Combined Arms , shoot in bursts to keep it triggered (if I will shoot alot I use capacitor) In the end with this core I mentioned you can do loads of combos and they are great in PVE

[@r0botnix499]

​​@@Romanus-hives and seeker mines I've found are best for hard wired. You can pretty much spam them almost non-stop with only a few seconds wait between using them. Great for a bit of crowd support and can do a good bit of damage. Each of my seekers hit for around 4.5 million. That's without btsu gloves too. Will have to test what I can hit adding them to the build.

[@thecasualgamer5400]

Agreed so much with the godly tiers. Capacitor, Momento and Scorpio are my most used exotics. Momento being my favorite because when it comes to builds it’s just the most versatile and improves most build.

[@TuxedoBandido]

I’m waiting to hear gripes on The Ravenous and Shocker punch. Hehe.

[@Romanus-]

@@TuxedoBandidoI posted my gripe for the ravenous lol. Totally agree on the shocker punch tho, the only viable build IMO is fenris chest with intimidate and groupo BP with galvanize. At least you get some bonus armor to try and survive but that still isn’t very good. They should have combined damage mitigation(weapon damage not skill like cavalier into the talent. For example, when melee’ing a shocked enemy you get 20-30% reduced damage for 10 seconds or something. Or your shield goes up 2 tiers or something for 10 seconds. That would have been kinda cool

Great vid! My default playing style is non-shield skill-based which makes use of cover (not generally in your face aggressive) so the Mantis / Decoy build you previewed is very appealing to me!!

[@ttambm8639]

Haven’t seen this, but you can get many of these exotics from buying exotic caches from the countdown vendor. That’s how I got most of my current exotics. I’m a newer player to the game and wish I could have known about this sooner. Super easy to do, just run a couple of successful countdowns and you have enough for a cache. Also, I got St. Elmo’s before I hit level 90 on the season pass. Didn’t think that was possible, but it dropped from countdown while I was targeting assault rifles when I was on level 63 on SHD and season pass.

[@Romanus-]

Interesting, that shouldn’t be possible so you got a glitch that for once was a positive lol

[@MrMAC1214]

Great video you explained everything clearly the best video I've seen on this game 💪🏿

[@TuxedoBandido]

[@mr8ty8]

Pestilence with a chest piece that applies status effect within proximity combined with backpack that gives dmg when in cover. Combine that with fenris 2piece for 20% reload and a piece for additional 10% lmg dmg. Is my favourite build. It's just a nuke fest with armour on kill mods. Any other weapons with sync to turret and a +10 to pistol is godly

[@djbeema]

As someone who primarily plays solo pve, I really appreciate the criteria you use for this. I can't tell you how many times I've asked a veteran player about an exotic and they answer me with some ridiculously specific build and specific context to use it in that makes it absolutely pointless for me 90% of the time.

[@thecolonel5700]

Ravenous is one of my favourite weapons to use in PVE - works amazingly on ANY build.

[@opratorkilo4649]

Bro i completely agree ive been an avid ravy fan boy and trying to put owners onto its power in pve outside of raids but not many have given it a real shot. Granted its weird at first but imo it has the highest barrier to entry of all exotics obtaining and using/mastery. But also the highest skill ceiling. You can absolutely bully npcs with the explosive stagger, halt aggression, interrupt animations, and oneshot warhounds direct hp and hyena/rikers sheild carriers. And the left stack is a better bloodsucker if you're aggressive enough (you'll feel like doomguy if you use it right) and its got the added bonus of being a second way to shred through heavy,warhound, and ballistic shields. Its a niche gun but a great tool on a build. I run a dps spotter, insync build that has strong teir 2 skills while my rav serves as a great tool for when encounters try and mix it up with tanky enemies. For me the ravenous is a great for single hard targets you can stunlock unarmored enemies into literal oblivion and swiss cheese tanks. And if im facing a group of enemies just switch to left and watch the bonus armor turn me into Lt Grey while i eat npcs hp away

[@jonathanandrews7493]

I have a "lady death" and " the mop" on a run n gun build that replenishes 30-40% of my armor per kill. It works pretty well most of the time unless i get surrounded. Just picked the game back up a few weeks ago and started actually making builds. Still have a lot of experimenting to do though.

[@RuseVeil]

This video was the greatest random find from my algorithm. I would like to add for the Sanctum Imperium that it shoots like Dead Man's Tale from Destiny 2. It's a MMR that is meant to be shot from the hip. I do not know why. I do not know how. But when shooting it from the hip the Headshot Perk procs so much more easier than if you ADS. Just my two cents when I was using it. Again, great video :-)

[@gregc.5684]

Fantastic work, Tux. Great run down.

[@TuxedoBandido]

Thanks Greg!!

[@Hoshimiyamoka]

personally ruthless/merciless is one of my favorite weapon. Sure the kicks is bad, but the kicks fixed when used with "Braced" chest talent. It sacrifice one of most important slot, but the trade off is fair. The gun hits so hard, also with 3pcs striker it will ramp up fire rate into super fast shot. Chatterbox has interesting interaction with ninjabike kneepad where "reloading" with kneepad's parkour won't reset chatterbox's firerate buff, making you have technically infinite firerate buff as long you jump before ammo runs out. Need quite specific gear(and build to some extent) but the gameplay is totally fresh.

[@Christophercastellanos-jf1dv]

For my opinion on shocker punch considering you need weapons and stuff to shock targets and for all its buffs its ok since that second melee hit that applies shock can be good if a strong enemy is to close and you can just hit em and run and with st elmo's you can shock armies of enemies which can also be good when in a squad to save someone from getting jumped by enemies to close to them but then again this my opinion

[@Christophercastellanos-jf1dv]

Also something that could help you potentially change your mind on the ravenous is your placement and play style from how see your gameplay of exotic weapons I would recommend to you that you should be on cover spaces that you can change from shoulder to shoulder without vision block I know that you probably know this but it could help or if there are enemies on both your sides you can tag one switch up shoulders blow up an enemy tag and kill the other

[@Christophercastellanos-jf1dv]

I would also like to think the merciless uthless as a half rifle and nemesis esc weapon because you fire your first shot like a normal rifle but the second shot if you hold think of it as holding the trigger on nemesis for the dog boost and when a enemy is not moving and out of cover then you can take your shot this could potentially help people who used nemesis before and could use that same mechanic of hold the trigger for merciless uthless to get some more potential from it.

Thanks for the vid! You can negate the Backfire's bleed effect by using the Ninjabike kneepads and vault over obstacles. It's a bit frantic, but it works... 😄 So you can create a build that doesn't require effect resistance.

[@Romanus-]

Interesting idea, one piece cavalier with haz pro, Hollowman with haz pro, cheska, piccaros with Hazpro using the ninja bike and bleed mods is the no bleed build I’m using currently but yours sounds like an interesting one to try

I'm pretty sure there was a holster that randomly sets fire to a nearby enemy. Edit: Imperial Dynasty is an exotic holster that is exclusive to WONY. It randomly applies burn to an enemy within 20m. 40s cooldown.

[@nuggytube]

Bloody Knuckles are very useful for certain content and in the right build can help you clear huge spawns solo, even in Countdown, for example, a group of Elite''s spawn, you then throw a fire nade which procs Bloody Knuckles and also Perfect Sledgehammer (equip the 'Lefty' shotgun when throwing the nade). All the NPC's are burning as you do a silly amount of damage on an all red Glass Cannon/Vigi build. As a bonus all enemies on fire receive 10% more damage from team mates. In scenarios where there are group spawns/choppers, etc it absolutely shines.

I was just thinking about new exotic weapons and we could use another SMG and shotgun. The MP7 is probably the most dog weapon in the game.

I would like to argue ab the chameleon, i have homie running the st elmos, and i easily pump out the same if not more damage utilizing the buffs from chameleon, go for the reload buff then the chest shots then headshots, stack it on a striker build and put some crit chance and damage on it youll easily be hitting 700k to 1.2 mil crits, yes agreed takes a second to build the stacks but on something like countdown the hunters at the beginning and the named enemies in the encounters allow to to build most stacks just from emptying a few mags on them, combine it with the memento and put some armor on it and you have a pretty decent PVE build 👍

[@sagechanged7923]

I forgot melee attacks existed since I reached level 40. The damage seems to completely dissipate and no longer scale with the game.

[@grumpyoldman6503]

Only thing Im surprised about is Dread Edict. From what I see its not well liked by the masses. Its way better with hotshot IMO but still most dont like the sniping playstyle and if they do Mantis is easier to use across the board due to the decoy.

[@ilaril]

Great list. I've many times wondered what the 'ell all those exotics would work on and all that. I wish they'd do whay Bungie is doing in Destiny 2 and refreshing the lackluster exotics to be actually viable. In five years the game has changed enough to warrant that. If the collector in me would let me, I'd destroy most of my stash. And for the Backfire I finally got a build I love, but it's only for the incursion, as it's the only way to keep the 200 striker's stacks and the 200 stacks on the weapon itself. But it melts the enemies and 100% hazpro lets me not to worry about the fire.

My main build is striker set with Ceska chest with obliterate and Picaro's holster. Cirt changes as high as posible. Weapons are Elmo because of it's insane accuracy at long ranges and a RPK with Dtoc and Dtoa It melts everyting.

One person should use BTSU in your group. Team overcharge is excellent, also using Hard Wired + glass cannon + cluster mines with any hive is crazy good.

Ridgeway Pride into blue core Hunter Fury with Crusader shield with a nice SMG or Chameleon is soooooo broken fun to run.

Is the big horn still bugged? I seem to recall that there was a head shot bug a while back.

I know you ranked the shocker punch last but in.the DZ this guy with a shocker punch punch build was destroying everybody with it. He'd zig zag until he was in our faces and punch us to death quickly.

thanks subscribed

[@battlefields2mine]

Lets not forget. If enemies are below surface, it still mark one of those target. Still quite fun and gun for me

[@zaidmohammad757]

Thanks for the video bro. Rate lady death in the top tier, feels like damage is amazing

[@TuxedoBandido]

it was close. It's a great weapon.

I'm so happy to finally hear Karl Casey's music in another work

[@KellerCasderaiStormgem]

When it comes to Shocker Punch, It's a trash in PVE, but it's decent when it comes to Dark zone where you may find players using St' elmo.

[@moriconvallaria1279]

The Punch Out music caught me off guard lol love it 😂

[@WaynePS]

BEST LIST EVER!!!!! thanks for another great video tux!!!!!

[@TuxedoBandido]

I got your back.

[@omiotod]

did you put harry potter theme as background music at 24:20?

[@TuxedoBandido]

Yes. Lol. Good 👂

[@Darkrun9999]

If you have the Stinger m249, pairing it with the ninja bike messenger pads is a fantastic synergy.

[@DanceSoldier]

Love your "Tierlist" Series. Had so much fun watching. Epic Jokes Man :D On the Chatterbox if you pair it with Hunter's Fury this thing becomes a BEAST for Spawntrap Shredding. Neverending Bullets because if multiple Enemies spawn and that thing gets its DPS increase from being near up to 5 enemies after realod. Simply shoot one bullet. Get close to a Group of enemies - Reload - Shredd - Have Fun :D Of course we have much better weapons so putting it in the OKAY Tier is absolutely correct. Have a lovely Day Tux.

I've gotten everything on this list damn near while running countdown for ARs

[@lockade_9958]

Every piece of gear on this list need can be on the top of your list like the diamond back, if you use it with an all red build with clutch and negotiator dilma, you can wreck people in the dz. Also that imperial holster you can run it with the named M4 and get 25% extra DMG to burning targets aside from the extra weapon DMG you get from expertise.All gear on this list can be reworked for greatness. I got rank 133 manhunt with the merciless and that weapon is at the bottom of your list. 🎉
