    Quick question about 9k builds

    THIS IS BASED ON PVE ONLY....


    Do you go:

    5pc stamina and 1pc firearms but not being able to use 5 x damage to elite mods?

    Or

    6pc Stamina but being able to use 5 x damage to elite mods?

    Reason i ask is 5pc stamina + 1pc Firearms gets me 4k+ firearms....... 6pc stamina gets me 3k+ firearms

    EDIT: Forgot to add this is based on D3-FNC and Striker

    My mind tells me 6pc Stamina but being able to use 4 x damage to elite mods for Striker and 3 x damage to elite mods for D3-FNC

    for 6pc d3-fnc yes it would be 4k fa 9k sta so 5 pcs need stam and 1 needs FA,,, you will need stam mods to reach 9k from 8k stam... There is some stam+ dte mods for sale this week

    If your wanting to DPS while holding a shield go for 6k fa 6k stam atleast 120 skillpower,, you can use FA mods this way. Run 4 pc D3gfnc + barrets chest and highend back pack with all healing applied to you is applied to skill objects.. OR 4 pc d3fnce and ninja back pack

    Just checked and don't think it's possible to use 5pc stamina 1pc firearms and still have DTE mods.

    So far i have come up with this:

    9k D3-FNC:

    9k Striker:

    yea i said it before i went and tried it myself,,, 9k builds are IMO tank builds,,,, except maybe striker with stacks up. I use stam+ crit or stam+haste,, when playing in a group as D3 i dont expect to kill everytime,, but getting the aggro and letting team mates who are more DPS burn then down, and running around to pick up the DPS that have fallen.

    Striker and Predator both do a ton of damage with 9K stamina. Too much maybe.

    I must be missing something here. How would you make a 9k build without having all six pieces put into stamina (or whatever stat you're trying to hit 9k with)?

    The math just doesn't work out. 1401 x 5 = 7005. If you then equip five 267 mods, that only gives you 1335, for a total of 8340, still well short of 9k.

    Or am I just misinterpreting what you were saying?

    Dunno, i just mess around with this: https://division-builds.com/build/2090-d3test

    Someone did query that somewhere on a build elsewhere and they said "add base main stats at level 30"

    Ohhh wait a minute. Light bulb. I forgot about the ~200ish stats you get from the other "non-main" stats. (So, FA and Elec if you're speccing into Stamina). That must be enough to make up the difference.

    Hmm...think it might be time to go adjust some builds. Thanks man.

    The best I've been able to do so far if I want to run purple mods on a 9k stamina D3 is this:

    https://division-builds.com/build/20...-d3-9k-stamina

    That build isn't able to run Destructive on a gearscore 256 weapon. However, it has a lot of baked in Critical Hit Damage.

    I run a build very similar to this, though:
