    Made a pure DZ build, having the best time ever in the DZ

    So yeah, in the past I've been content with running a mixed build and thus even though PVE content was a breeze, I struggled at times in the DZ (I'm a PVEr who takes PVP when it comes my way, but mostly PVE even in the DZ). So this time I decided to go full no PVP DZ oriented build and I'm really, really noticing the difference. I still like to farm in the DZ, and specially these days (soon after a DLC comes out) the DZ is more "civilized" and more people are out to farm. But wow what a difference it makes to forego other considerations and make a PVP build. Yesterday I was running towards a checkpoint when two players decided to go rogue on me and with a bit of tactical movement and making sure I was proccing the right talents in my AB SMG build I got them down with relative calmness. Still need to replace a few items in my AB build which are 229, and even then there's room for improvement in my build, but still ... Good times.

    The build is 4 PC AB + Godroll Savage gloves with 1262 stamina, Crit Damage, Crit Chance and SMG damage + Larae Barret chestpiece (could be better but rather good roll too). And the MP5 BP has made it all that much easier to get an almost perfect talent combination. Deadly, Brutal, Predatory, Self Healing, Competent and Responsive. Ideally I'd like to change Self Healing for Destructive for more OOOMPH but OTOH self preserved does add a nice amount of healing in firefights.

    TLDR : A DZ oriented build, foregoing PVE considerations makes my DZ time a lot more fun.

    There is no need for a pve build anymore, all builds I have are for pvp because if you can pvp well then you will have no problem in pve. PvE is not end game no more due to how easy it is!

    I'm currently melting rogues in the Dz with an all high end build, military g36 and m700 carbon.
    Have 410k dps with 5600 firearms
    370k toughness with 6100 stam and 50% armor mit with 107k skill.
    G36 crits for 68k with body crits at 41k
    Skulls MC gloves are 16% more dam without gear set bonuses, but once I get my Alpha setup I'll switch to 4 alpha, Barrett's chest, savage gloves

    I've seen 400k dps+ builds but that's with AB and a Famas. MM DPS numbers though.... Yeah those are optimistic at best.

    I can get over 400k dps with my PM/Reckless Famas, lol but not with 370k toughness in tier 5

    410k dps is with a military g36. Carbon is at roughly 235-240k.
    Yeah on Xbox one with that setup.
    It's currently all high end pieces.
    That's with using a robust chest piece not reckless.

    I'll post a pic when I get back

    Destructive does work in PVP now, as does EAD.

    Whenever I get a good AR combo and an unlikely awesome AR pair of savage gloves I'll give it a shot too with a ARs see what works best for me. The one thing I dislike about the AR build is that as it stands it more or less requires a Famas in the second slot, but there's proof that ARs are probably the strongest weapons in the game right now, so that will probably work even better than my current dual MP5 build (getting the right talents will be a pain though, I'm sure).
