    OverHeal V Booster

    You might have seen me post before about my seeker mine build, but i want to increase my time before i die in the DZ. Which skill will provide me to live longer. I understand that i will have more health with overheal but i will have more toughness with booster but which one's better?

    Could just use a Vigorous chest piece and get the best of both worlds

    EDIT: If you do use one try and get EDR on it.

    I don't have any math behind it but I've switched from overheal to booster and I feel like I survive longer. My SP is around 100k and booster heals me to full when I'm on my last third of life.

    Booster Shot, especially if you're running a Vigorous Chest.

    You're not gaining that much more health with Overheal compared to Booster Shot.

    Your effective Toughness jumps up substantially with Booster Shot due to 15% All Damage Resilience.

    With the way Toughness and damage mitigation is implemented at the moment Booster shot should be mandatory for every single build in the game. No reason whatsoever to use Overheal over booster shot.

    Barrets Chest + Booster Shot + On the Move= Broken

    Maybe they need to start thinking about making damage resistance perks and talents non multiplicative (if they are). There are literally moments when people are pretty much invincible, even if only for 15 seconds.

    Done the testing on this, get Overheal. Thats what i run and get really good at maintaining safe distance, snake weaving, manual cover to cover work etc and run defense link.

    Another thing to consider is cooldowns. I'm pretty sure that Booster Shot has a lower cooldown than Overheal which in itself is broken. If you are running a seeker mine build, I'm assuming you have over 200K skill power. Look at a rapid vest in conjunction with that over a vigorous one and you can get booster shot back in about 20 seconds.

    Also, look at a relentless back pack. Relentless gives you a ridiculous amount of health back from seeker mine and fire turret damage. My only issue with it is that it prevents me using specialised which increases my skill power more but it might be a better option with tactician's.
