    D3 to 6 piece or not??

    Currently running d3 with barrets and specialized backpack.
    6k FA/6k stam

    What’s the reason I would want to run the full 6 piece?

    Shield has roughly 1mil hp, and does break in legendary from time to time.
    But I like having the FA’s to dispatch quickly.

    This is my main for basic solo and works great: https://division-builds.com/build/280-d3fnc-dps-build

    This is gonna be my tank build i am working on which should also deal some decent dps: https://division-builds.com/build/1881-d3fnc-tank-build

    Mainly gonna use the tank build if i do a legendary, not that i do them but it's still nice to have it.....might have to change out Riotshield Damage mods for Riotshield Damage Resist mods though....

    The DPS can't possibly be right on those linked pages, can it? 400k+?

    *edit* I'm running a 6/6/3 build and I'm getting around 360k dps. Granted I may not have the absolute best weapon mods equipped, but I can't see how 470k is even remotely possible...

    That website bases it's stats on equipping the highest stats possible, so mods is always gonna be a tricky one to achieve.

    We recently shared a video from another community member on all things D3-FNC, if you guys want to give it a look.

    Simple answer is that 9k classified built right is just about immortal. 2.3 mil shield, predatory is insane, and when you proc the 6pc armor buff you hit 1.2 mil toughness. You really need to mess up bad to die. I think the second best way to run D3 is with the ninja bad. With ninja, 3 D3, 2 pred running 6k-6k-3k, with an AR as a secondary(with predatory helps), your getting the best of D3 and Pred 8% SMG/AR damage. Damage is really high if that's what you're after. Would really check out Buzzlightbeers video if your new to the set, its pretty good.

    This right here. You're pretty much immortal with the 6-piece. And if you're running in a group, you're pretty much constantly giving your squad a 30% armor buff. In heroic/legendary content, run with a D3 and FM and your squad will always be buffed.

    If you want survivability, nothing beats 9k stamina shield builds with shield mods. I am over 2.3m HP. I dont run it much in the DZ, but run it all the time in LS, and I do not die in 1v1s. I am able to face tank turrets and take them out with one clip with my house, and the shield health hardly budges. 2 hitting red NPCs (and 4 hitting purples) is also fun.
