    20 Millions DPS but getting downed 10-20 times during heroic

    Is this how we schould play this game? 3,4 seconds out of cover or one grenade and u are dead?
    Running LMG Critc Build Weapon DMG Maxed out, named petrov gloves, named Glasscanon chest, 60% CHC, 106 CHD, strained talent
    only do mediocre DMG on heroics and die so often, how could this be fun?

    Shield Build works pretty good tho but theres no effort in tanking enemies just stand in front of them and doing dmg of a supersoaker, that doesnt make really fun.

    Difficulty is good but the lack of survivalbility u have because u need to run glasscanon on heroic to put out at least some dmg in groups makes me i dont want to play anymore after nearly 1000h playtime.

    Upscaling is broken.
    They should maybe increase enemies healthpoints when playing solo, decrease dmg
    in groups of 4 decrease healthpoints and dmg

    Maybe you should not play with "glass canon" talent...

    Glass Cannon is the problem.

    If at all, I would use Glass Cannon with a shield.

    I do Heroic with a bunch of blue attributes. Very rarely get a party wipe. Takes around 30 minutes per mission.

    I run Perfect Glass Cannon with the healer drone and revive hive when in 4 man groups. The drone refreshes my armor from minimal damage, and the hive revives me when I'm killed (obviously) as to not take another group member out of the fight to revive me.

    With the current state of the game, if something is going to one or two shot you, it's gonna happen whether you're running a 2 million armor blue set or glass cannon, so glass cannon it is. If death is assured, I would rather go down doing maximum damage than go down doing gimped damage wearing a blue set.

    Your playing as a Glass Cannon with emphasis on critical damage. Play to your strengths and know your weakness, if you want to do better damage with critical hits, run with an SMG and run with a healer and tank-like player. Your build is going to be weak because your playing as a glass cannon that's in the name.
