    And in TU7 there were just Hybrids, that's all anyone ran (Hybrid with P416 and M60) for the most part,or change the two guns for M700/M1A /Vector

    So far iv'e had/have 5 different builds only 1 relies on all red or mostly red, my most used build is a 1 Red build on hard/challenging.

    An idiot might also use the pronoun less when they ought to use the comparative adjective fewer. I have no problem with you making the assertion that there are fewer build combinations, but when you make that assertion the onus is on you to prove it. And you have not.

    There is a potential for builds but we don't know because it's all buried under an RnG wall. All I can do right now is theory craft and I am struggling to do that because I don't have the tools to do it.

    I'm new so I don't have the recipes to test builds properly. Part of me is thinking a tank build needs to go heavy in resist attributes in addition to armor in the primary but I don't know if that will amount to anything more than another 2 seconds before a focus fire shreds me anyway. If by build diversity, you mean more ways to fail then yea, there is plenty of build diversity.

    there is literally nothing hidden. Everything is shown in the recal. That or is a well known gear sets.
    But here we go again with defenders pretending that less diversity is more, as if usage diversity means that less potential builds and verity is more fun and better.


    less total talents, less talents at the same time, worse talent pool. All adds up to a very disappointing package when put up against the old one.

    No one can even legitimately summarize hoe this is better, just "ba bla bla seeker builds" as if that means anything. It doesn't explain why the gear change makes this stupid backwards system better, it just points out a singular flaw that had nothing to do with the old system at its core, just a issue with the playerbase and the balance itself. Both which could have been changed without stripping talents and making them sterile and frankly boring to even look at let alone play.

    I TOLD YOU SO, I TOLD YOU SO,I TOLD YOU SO,I TOLD YOU SO,I TOLD YOU SO.

    Well that out of the way, because i really did warn about less build diversity and no-one wanted to listen to me, it was basic knoledge 2 talent slots will have less diversity then 6 talent slots.

    Also backpack has only 2 (real) defensive talents, rest is only for offense or skill builds, so depending on what build you want even for defensive/tanks you have even less options as for a backpack talent to choose from.

    because he might want to get the game he loves back so he can re-install it again

    He is right there is a huge amount of diversity - you can build what you want.

    Problem is

    Only very very very very few are viable.

    I am a dissatisfied customer who is taking 10 seconds here and ten seconds there to voice my concern.

    I stand in opposition to cancel culture and trying to silence the counter narrative.

    I have a right to do this. I don't name call, at least not at first. I don't touch taboos, race religion ethnicity sexual preference.

    You could say I'm a model complainer.
