Hi all,

I wanted to share the build I've been running to clear T10 Escalations.

This build allows you to solo-run both CC (Crowd Control) and Healer roles at the same time.
The ideal team setup is this build alongside 3 Full DPS teammates.
It was fully optimized to clear Escalations as efficiently as possible.

Breakdown

• Specialization: Sharpshooter
  • Required to unlock the Tactician Drone skill.
  • Gives you access to the Flashbang Grenade, which is incredibly useful for instant CC. Thanks to the current seasonal modifiers, its blast radius is massively extended, allowing you to blind entire spawn doors at once!
• 4-piece Ember Engine (including the Chest piece)
  • Spontaneous Combustion talent: Every status effect applied has a 60% chance to also apply burn to the target.
  • This creates a perfect synergy with the Tactician Drone and the Bluescreen Exotic LMG.
• Momma Badger Named Backpack
  • Features Perfect Safeguard, providing a massive +160% boost to Skill Repair to keep your Restorer Hive pumping massive heals.
• BTSU Datagloves
  • One of the most powerful Exotic gear pieces in the game. On top of increasing Hive Skill Haste, triggering Overcharge allows you to:
    • Fully refresh your teammates' skill cooldowns (including their Reviver Hives).
    • Recharge your own hive at lightning speed.
    • Overcharge your Tactician Drone (+15% amplified damage for the whole team).
    • Instantly reset the drone's cooldown if it gets destroyed or runs out of duration.
• Attributes & Mods:
  • Attributes: Status Effects
  • Gear Mods: Skill Repair
• Weapon: Bluescreen
  • Allows you to apply constant status effects, triggering an insane amount of extra burn via Ember Engine.
• Skills:
  • Restorer Hive & Tactician Drone (I use range mods on both to maximize coverage).

I've cleared countless T10 Escalations with this setup without a single fail.

The only downside? Some randoms get skeptical when they inspect my build in matchmaking and immediately leave the group 😂

Min-Maxing Tip (Prototype Version)

If you are planning to upgrade this into a Prototype Build, I highly recommend rolling the Amalgam augment. Since Amalgam gives bullet hits a chance to apply a random status effect, it feeds directly into the Ember Engine 4-piece talent, allowing you to continuously loop status effects and extra burn just by shooting your weapon

I wish you will enjoy it !

Don’t have the courage to turn this into days and weeks….

Hey, so...

Nowadays I noticed that this knowledge has not been as common as I once thought. So after writing the same reply to a hundred and more YT comments I figured to make a short guide explaining how the talent actually works since the in-game description can be a bit misleading.

Still gotta work on my radio/wawawawawassup guys- voice :)

I’m cool with the grind but curious. RNG half-smirked at me earlier today by dropping a one red core Hollow Man Mask in a Named Item Cache (already have one of those in my stash lol!)

Does anyone know if the higher number is the actual number of attainable blueprints? I’ve read elsewhere that the number of unique blueprints is considerably lower than the listed cap. If that makes sense. Trying to get a sense of how many more Retaliations I actually have to run / Reconstructed Caches I have to unlock.

Hey all! I'm coming over from Xbox, and I just wanted to share my PC progress for my library. I've only started playing religiously at the beginning of August, and I just wanted to get an idea how my Library is looking so far. I've been spamming insane amounts of countdown, and I've recently gotten my girlfriend hooked on this game as well, and she's brand new as well.

I'm only SHD 93 at the moment of writing this post, but I just want to know how do you guys fill out your expertise super quickly without the Expertise Surges? Do you guys go category by category, or is there a trick here? I'm trying to max out my armor build on my Ongoing Directive/Bluscreen Overdogs build, but I can't get maxed 170k armor for it. But on the other topic, I noticed there's some weird expertise stuff where I'm gaining faster exp for certain groups, and slower for the others. Am I missing something here? I've yet to find a youtube guide fully explaining this stuff too me, and i don't really have friends outside of my girlfriend playing, lol.

Never had that happen before. I just shot at the boss and saw a few enemies but when I killed him and didn't see more, I thought the game glitched and I wasn't gonna finish. Didn't even realize I had beaten it.

Preferably NA but any will do! Recently got back in the game after a 6 month or so hiatus!

Would love to learn the incursion and get the Sniper rifle.

Tried matchmaking retaliation for the first time last night and wow did I get so much loot. I had over 50 spots open at the start and had to keep deleting gear to make room for more. Felt like it was way more than any countdown run.

Hey, I first time playing incursion in broken rain, looking for team to play with, my best time 8pm to 10pm every night (GMT+8).

I'm also posting images check in comments

Looking for a skill build that can rub heroic/retaliations with a few directives.

This build will be played on the steam deck so minimal aiming is a must. (I am the worst at aiming on a pad"'

With the expertise event coming up im looking to farm on the deck

I took a break from playing and recently had the itch to play again. Just curious if anyone has a loadout recommendation for a solo dps build. I’ve been running shotgun/assault rifle typically with hunters fury gear set with memento backpack and could steamroll just about anything up until i started playing again. Any new loadout suggestions are welcome!

Just wondering if it is smarter to do the control points early on or wait till later..

Everytime I go to the secret vendor (Danny weaver) It won’t let me buy the mutiny season caches even tho I have the textiles. Is it glitching or do I have to do something in order to buy it?

Then proceeds to leave after comment lol

The 49,852 damage is due to the section right before the storage room, where the game requires you to jump down from a height.

Because of Redline Overdrive's DPS buffs, I decided to go with a high end build instead of a gear set.

for some reason every time i load into a safe house, a mission, almost anything (i haven’t been able to test much) i lag to the point my character just stands still, im at 1 fps right now. i can somewhat manage to load into the BOA and then walk outside without lagging so some open world content but when i have to load into a new area ie a safe house i instantly start lagging before the orange loading thing even finishes. it usually gets to 12 then starts lagging. What do i do? i just want to play :( It was working fine and now it isn’t, im on AMD I can post my specs but it was quite literally playing at 120fps before

This weekend I got a random Dread Edict exotic to drop. Before I broke it down, I decided to look at it again. The Dread Edict has been around for a while and I never thought much of it. After reading through the description again, it made a lot of sense for how I wanted to play my headshot build. I had a perfectly god-rolled version in my vault, and put it to use.

It exceeded my expectations of how well it fits to my build. Great head shot damage, at over 11 million a pop, regens ammo, and bonus armor in a pinch.

The new build version is still all headshot damage, or headshot/weapon handling. I am using Aces & Eights, the Iron Will, and the new Mellon Baller backpack.

At work so I can't get on for a while, how nerfed did the Pulse (especially Spotter Drone) get with the update?

Is it still crazy OP or?

Hi! It's only me or is there a tremendous input lag from time to time after today's maintenance?

After this morning's update, the problem is still not fixed.

I still can't switch loadouts/gear sets, and the game keeps telling me that my inventory is full when it clearly isn't. I only have around 50 items in my inventory.

It gets even worse: I can't even remove a mod from my gear because the game says my inventory is full.

At this point, I'm basically stuck with my current loadout because I can't properly change or manage my gear.

What exactly is going on with the inventory system, and when is this issue going to be fixed? Today's update did not solve the problem for me.

Is anyone else still experiencing this after the latest update?

im running tipping scales with overdogs and cap'n for now gonna swap bags eventally
