    I still use hardwired 4 piece set with assault turrent striker drone. Tech support back pack and spark chest. Its still a really strong build and works well even when you run with all 5 directives as the 4 piece can cut the amount of skill tokens you need to pick up to refresh your cool downs which helps alot.

    Recently, they changed something. Cause the NPCs are acting different and have been immune to my SBs.

    Probably, but by stat total and talents, HE gear does better, especially when it comes to total damage. And as far as an "infinite revive" build, if you have a good HE skill damage build, especially with a turret+drone combo, NPC's don't even look at you if you let your skills hit them first.

    strength of HW is COOLDOWN, not throwing drone or turret FFS . This set needs buff +25% damage for 3s after throwing skill , to be usefull in 4 players heroic game

    As of the Summit update, enemies don't obsess over turrets & drones like they use to. Sometimes they'll lock onto them for a decent duration, but the fixation of npcs going after deployed skills has been nerfed, so relying on that isn't what is used to be. As for the infinite revive build, that's strictly a support build, not a solo build. Allowing a player to restock revives nonstop, securing a no wipe assurance for the rest of the team. It's not used for the same solo & co-op offensive roles as a turret/drone build.

    I just farmed for all 6 components and the 10 techs needed that showed on the project page and got the blueprints. I try to craft any of the pieces of gear and it seems I lack six techs for each? So I take it my farming days a not yet over?

    The only hardware build I find of any use is stinger and and cluster seekers, 4 piece with wyvern and china and demolitionist, one skill haste mod let's u get seekers back in 10 seconds. 3 pieces make no sense because u can use wyvern, alps, and hana-u and get 46 percent skill haste, 40 percent skill damage, and 20 percent skill repair, and add one more piece of brand set for more skill damage, if ur going for max skill damage the best is wyvern, 2 hana-u, and 3 marakami this gives u a total of 100 percent skill damage.

    But kinetic momentum and perfect combine arms gives u 45 percent plus if ur useing perfect n'sync that's a total of 85 percent as long as ur shooting verses 40 plus 25 about every 10 to 12 seconds and having to time it.

    You can have perfect glass cannon 30%(its great for skill builds)+ perfect combine arms 30% in normal build (dont count in in sync, because You can have with HW) =60%
    With tag team and HW you can spam seeker mines and sticky bombs all time (srly, you can throw them like a mad man) 25-30% will be nice decent dmg buff for HW in my opinion.
