    Pvp

    Good New Year to you all. Big question. What would be the best gear set up to survive in? And what weapons are top in case I'm jumped by "Rouge" individuals??

    Thank You.

    Reason..I would like to do more work in the DZ and pick up more "Cache Drops".

    Well there is the Alpha Bridge meta with Famas/M4 combo. Banshee and Nomads work great too if solo. Plenty of builds on youtubes to give you some ideas

    Here is what I use in DZ and DZ only (for PvE there are much better sets, Alpha Bridge ain't a pve set) and so does 99,9999% of the whole player base because devs have f*cked up build diversity:

    4-Piece Alpha Bridge + Barret Chest + Savage Gloves

    Alpha Bridge Mask - Critical Hit Chance / Enemy Armor Damage
    Alpha Bridge Kneepads - Armor, Enemy Armor Damage + Resistances
    Alpha Bridge Backpack - Armor, Ammo Capacity (or Resistance, ammo does not matter anymore - all npc's drop ammo all the time).
    Alpha Bridge holster - Armor
    Vest - Barret's Bulletproof Vest - Armor, Exotic Damage Resielence, Ammo Capacity
    High End Gloves Savage - Assault Rifle Damage, Critical Hit Chance, Critical Hit Damage

    Main Stat Distribution: 4870 to Firearms, all rest must go to Stamina. If you want a little more damage - go glass build - 6000 firearms (no more, ever) and rest to stamina.

    Gun talents (buffing your base damage now is the meta, not crits)
    - Unforgiving (you win everytime against player who does not have this)
    - Destructive
    - Brutal (not exactly pvp talent but nice lies to your fake dps - and occasional high headshot damage)
    - Competent (get this on your primary weapons 3rd free slot).
    - Responsive
    - Uncomplicated (FAMAS exclusive)

    Primary weapon
    - Lightweight M4 or LVOA-C (Police M4 has too much recoil)

    Secondary weapon
    - Famas, just for the free damage boost - never use.

    Your primary weapon should be modded to high crit chance (Holosight 8%, Muzzle 3%, Mag 3%) and crit damage. Or if you want to have fake dps go for headshot damage which has no benefit in pvp (too much movement/hipfire - you stop to aim for the head and you drop yourself).

    You can also craft yourself a 182 Sawed off shotgun with Adept and Competent and then have it equipped everytime you pulse or heal to get the talents to your primary - if you do this get Deadly on your primary weapon instead of competent - I just got bored switching guns all the time so I rolled it on my M4 and I use a pistol now with harmful (bleed your opponent).
