    The power of 207 Purple gear

    I'm sure that most people who play in the highest world Tier (5) get a lot of purple drops, but how many of you have actually looked at their stats and got them on the recalibration?

    I'm sure not very many.

    Purple 207 Gear can roll higher stats than 229 Gear sets and High End. And since it's GS is just 207 - think how much of a GOD you can be on the lower DZ brackets? I'm not talking about the stats being just "a little" better than 204 (closest GS/DZ bracketing) - these can roll so much higher stats that you'll be 1000-1600 main attribute points ahead of players using 204 Gear sets and High Ends - On every attribute, armor rolls are also so, so much higher than 204 gear can even dream about.

    Since I've been a little bored in this game lately, I have kept full sets of Spider Silk and Agent on my stash, upgrading them every now and then when I get a good piece - and soon they'll be on my 4th character for some proper DZ testing on 204 bracket and if anyone playing there is willing - I'd like to go head-to-head with a well made AB build.

    Just for a note: 204 gear can barely roll 800 (795) attribute points, 207 Purple rolls 1042, make that six pieces and count the difference yourself. Not to mention the difference in armor rolls.

    Also gotta ask ubigabelikes or any other community moderator, was this Purple power intentional? Or accident?

    I'm confused.
    229 can roll 1200~1300 main stats...

    No it can't, 1008 is the max for 229. You must have mods on the gear to go over it.

    Yeah, I know that - I made this topic just to show that Superior 207 gear is the best gear for playing at lower dz brackets - 6 x 207 Purple and 182 guns = GOD mode (Gear score/DZ Bracketing 204)

    How does one enter that gear score bracket? I have four charatcers and since I have 256 in stash I get put into higher gear brackets? So is this before I hit lvl 30? Remove my stash items? How is it done?

    Dump every gear piece and gun to your other characters inventories, have nothing on your stash and then enter the dz
