    Destructive - How Good is it in PVP?

    Hey Guys,

    sorry for my English, I'm from Germany. How Good is the Perk Destructive? I mean in Patch 1.6. I play with an MP7 and I dont now if it is good enough for PVP, because it is only 5% EAD in PVP or I am wrong?

    Thanks for your help!

    Destructive reduce enemy player armor by 5%, so if we can talk about 33% avg mitigation it is 1.65% it maens that without destructive you need 149 DMG for 100 health down, with destructive you need 145 DMG for 100 health down. It is about 2,75% increased DMG. In normalized Last stand it is little bit better but we talk abou something like 0.1% DMG.

    math is not exact as there is some rounding. Deadly with only native 20% CHC will be little bit better. But in PvE scenario Destrictive take lead

    What komplik has said. On an MP7 for pure burst you want Deadly, Brutal and Responsive, come 1.6.

    For PvP even 35% mitigation yes. For PvE no. But introducing CHC as SMG native bonus is par with CHD now. You getting better chance for CHC but you getting lower CHD.

    30% CHC and 100% CHD now is AVG 30% DMG boost per shot. 50%CHC and 60% CHD in 1.6 is still AVG 30% DMG boost per shot. Higher CHC maybe affects CHC based talents as self preserved which will proc much often, but for less. With strong pulse CHD bonus is better as you reach CHC cap in 1.6 version
