    SEEKR change/new gearset: Counter skill set HACKR

    Hello everyone,

    (First is have to say that i'm a PS4 player so i don't play the PTS but i watch twitch stream daily so i have some idea what is going on.)

    So the SEEKR set is not really a great Gear-set and i guess i don't have to explain why.

    But i think i have a solution,

    Turn the SEEKR-set into a hacker set.

    In the division you can mark NPC and other players, though some people are not aware of that because it's not game changing.
    But what if we made marking useful and let mark skills and hack them for an amount of time.
    We could call it the HACKR-set

    So this is what the HACKR set would look like:


    * 2pc: 3 additional EMP grenades (debatable)
    * 3pc: -30% damage from enemy skills (numbers are debatable)
    * 4pc: HACKR - Hack an enemy skill by marking it. After it's hacked it will answer to your commands. (Like the LMB Hackers)


    The amount of seconds is debatable and can be tested in the PTS


    I think this could be a good counter set for the seeker mines and turrets. It could also make PvP and PvE a lot more interesting!

    I would love to hear you opinion about my idea and hope some of the Developers would see my idea.

    Edit: Made it more clear what i meant with the 4pc.
    Added Markus-752 idea for the 3pc.

    This is what the Banshee should be since PVP rely a lot on skillpower right now

    Easily one of the best ideas for a gear set I have seen so far.

    Even in PVE in would a great set as those turrets/ Seeker / Support stations can be a pain to deal with.

    For the 3-Piece bonus I would like to see something different than a Damage bonus as those are pretty common already.

    (Did you by any chance get your set idea from Sombra from Overwatch™? )



    I would actually say that EMP's needs to be refilled at restock caches. They give you a core element of defence against Smart Cover and other skills without the need to run a Disruptor.

    So +2 Grenades would be amazing then.

    For the 3-Piece could be either something like -30% Damage from enemy skills. Or something like +30% Skill duration.

    Thanks man! And i didn't get the idea from overwatch, i haven't laid my hands on it yet.
    And your 3pc idea is actually really good, that way the HACKR-set could be really skill focussed!

    I think this would be awesome. I've been waiting since launch for a hacking set, more so in the days of falcon lost with all those lmb techs.

    I think the 4 piece bonus should be similar to final measure

    Option 1 - Skill Sucker

    Any turret & seeker mines are diffused and finishes will skill cooldown on that skill if equipped. 8 second cooldown

    Option 2 - ECM

    Turret and seeker mines in range of player will be hacked and loyatly switched, 10 second cooldown

    Option 3 could be hacking healing stations from healing to damage over time...

    Why not let it heal you. After you hacked a support-station it heals you instead of the enemy.
