    So SEEKR replaces Alpha Bridge in PVP meta

    As it stands now (becuase they will have to change this in PTR) the SEEKR set 4 piece guarantees a crit hit after 2 consecutive body shots (pretty much giving 33% crit chance). To me this will be the new meta in PVP since no one even tries to go for headshots in PVP anyway and Alpha Bridge has been killed. Honestly you might as well run a all high end Skulls build before AB now.

    Im thinking

    -SEEKR 4 piece, Barets Chest, savage gloves
    -SMG (deadly, destructive, responsive) (rate of fire + mag size mag, Crit damage scope, crit damage grip, crit damage muzzle)
    -Crit Damage Rolled on Knee pads and Backpack once again since armor has been removed as a major stat.

    Conclusion: Patch 1.1 SMG meta is back boyz.

    Possible Group Meta:

    1 SEEKR
    1 RECLAIMER
    1 D3FNC
    1 Tanktician

    Thoughts?

    No, PM (ar and smg combo) will still be the meta because the bleed effect will make it even easier to kill people since they now have to stop running just to reload. Either that or you will see people running LS with a shotgun and lmg and never have to worry about reload.

    Still waiting on the 2 and 3 piece bonus but Id rather have guaranteed crit damage every 3rd shot than bleed every 10. Especially in a a new Reclaimer group.

    If you aren't getting a crit hit every 3rd shot as it is right now, maybe you should consider learning how to make a better build?

    You do know who crit works right?

    Lets say you have 40% crit and you shoot 10 bullets, you are NOT GUARANTEED 4 of those shots are crits. It could be 2 or could be 7. But with this 3 of those shot WILL BE CRITS and you still have 40% with the other 7. This gear set is one of the biggest DPS increases in the game.

    This would be everyone in the game, bud. No one is guaranteed to crit every third shot. I think I know what you're trying to say, but maybe it came out wrong on paper.

    I have a horrid feeling that it will be more likely to see 4 man seeker mine skill builds with a reclaimer than any sort of dps meta tbh.

    From a pure PvP point of view, SEEKR gives novice players a way to kill more skilled players..........until the skilled players start perfecting this build. Then it's just ridiculous again. Of course this only matters if you PvP in the DZ as Last Stand will have normalized stats..........

    Was the contaminated events an attempt to make healers a requirement? I'm curious how effective you can actually be as a healer if you have very little health in favor of skill power.......while the virus drains your bar....immunizer shouldn't work against the virus, right?
