Open world Heroic too easy? + Fully optimized gear do we need?
I know strange title, but iv'e been curious for a while about the max/fully/god rolled optimized gear/weapons arguments that have gone on in here.
As far as i see God rolled/fully maxed/optimized gear are only needed for 2 things in this entire game.
Raids
Legendary difficulty (too few missions on that setting)
Iv'e put 2400 + hours into this game and as of yet i do not have a full maxed Recalibration station and not one fully maxed/god rolled Build, because at the Heroic level and under iv'e never needed to have all that.
I don't play Raids or Legendary not my thing.
So i decided to do a test, make an all purple build with whatever i picked up and Recalibrate One stat on each piece no matter how good or bad it is. Then run Heroic open world to see if it's viable for just playing.
Underneath are two clips/shorts of my test. (now let me make this clear) these two clips are not about speed running or how good/bad i am) i'm bad though :) they are just about how viable or how an all purple build can do regular gameplay on the Hardest open world difficulty. I use the same build on both clips

The build is at the end of this clip.(took me less than 1 hour 30 mins to put this build together) Purples are everywhere:)

PS: in both i deliberately take burn damage and other damage to see how long i last (oh and i don't use med kits, just fixer drone)
PPS: Is Open world Heroic too easy? and do we need an Open world Legendary difficulty?
Your thoughts.
