00:00here is one of my newest builds on the division two i wanted to do a build around the steel

00:04series

00:05acr and the iron will chess piece as well so there are my rules i had to have both of

00:11them

00:11on the build and then i could do whatever else i wanted to do the rest of it i did

00:15put this build

00:15out in a non-prototype form on a guess my build video a week or so ago so many of

00:21you got the

00:21right answers and close to it it's quite an easy one to be honest with you but well done and

00:25this

00:26is where the build is at the minute so i'm showing you the build now we prototyped it pretty fun

00:31build

00:31to use i will be making changes going forward though and we'll discuss it as we go but the

00:36build that you're seeing in the guess my build video was this one uh just non-prototype and this

00:40is where it currently is up to go do some gameplay with it today again the rules were that we

00:45wanted

00:45to use the steel and sun's acr i want to make a build around that this is the exotic that

00:50you can

00:50find in the new broken rain incursion i don't have detox on it i've only got headshot damage on it

00:55but it's pretty decent and why i wanted to use the iron will chest piece with this as well as

01:00one

01:00because the iron will is a new exotic in the game but two it kind of works very well with

01:05the steel

01:05and sun's acr so you have a look how this works body shots are adding one stack to the enemy

01:10for

01:1010 seconds max stack is four and then when you get your next headshot on an enemy with stacks it

01:17consumes them all for amplified damage so you kind of want to be going body head body head and what

01:22the iron will does why it works so well with it is obviously because your next body shot will be

01:26considered a headshot every two seconds so it kind of worked hand in hand and it was very fun when

01:32we

01:32tried i i've decided to match up with aces as well so we've got four piece aces on the build

01:37i did try

01:38go in headshot damage versus crits and i finished on crits so rather than headshot damage you'll notice

01:44that on all these pieces we've got crit damage rolls so it's weapon damage crit damage crit damage mods on

01:49the

01:49build and we all know what aces and eights does uh so it's four pieces of that yes i've gotten

01:55the

01:55backpack i'm sure there's many of you watching this right now why the backpack i agree i went the

02:00backpack initially um my reasoning is because i wanted the fox's prayer for the damage target out

02:05of cover and i've also got the iron will so i was kind of like stuck with the backpack going

02:10forward

02:10we are looking to rejig this build whether i remove the fox's prayer or whether i remove the iron

02:15will i'm not so sure yet but we are going to be advancing this as we go but yeah the

02:19aces and eights

02:20backpack is there right now what that's given us is the ace in the sleeve where you get an extra

02:25and provide one extra shot when you reveal your hand it's not that good really i kind of want vigilance

02:30on the backpack there but again i went with the detox instead but that's a change if you're looking

02:35at this build and you're going to use this to make your own staling sun's build uh that's something

02:39i'd do with this if you go by this as a guideline uh but yeah that's the bill we've got

02:43a decoy

02:44there for decoys go revive five to pick us up if we've needed and on the stats we can see

02:49i'm at

02:4939.5 credit chance 152.4 credit damage i think i've got crit damage on every single mod so if

02:57that's

02:58an issue for you and you want some higher chance just take out some crit damage mods throw in some

03:02crit chance mods i got one there on the chess piece so there's two more you could do or you

03:07could go

03:07uh crit chance on the pieces as well now when i did the guess my build video this was non

03:13-proto

03:14prototype this is the first time you're seeing it as a prototype oh and the specialization

03:17sharpshooter obviously for this build that's working well with it but we're going to do some

03:22more gameplay now like we did in that one and show you this build in action and a lot of

03:26you liked the

03:27guess my build video we're going to make that an official series got some good plans with it

03:31we've got another one coming soon and a lot of fun we're going to have in the future so keep

03:36your

03:36eyes open for that and they'll always be when i'm just putting the build together for the first time

03:39and then the build will then kind of like evolve and we'll keep on following where the build goes

03:45we're going to let the priority objectives pit the mission we're going to mission here

03:49i'm going to go and play it with the build and we're going to be doing lincoln memorial

03:54on heroic difficulty and we'll see this build in action i've not used this build much i didn't even

03:59go over the arguments but you've seen it's all echo you want all echo on this i've only got up

04:04to

04:04level two so far i haven't been using this build that much we'll talk about what the build's good

04:08for as we go in because i have tested this build and all sorts of different content if you wanted

04:13to do solo legendary probably not the best build you're going to be finding it difficult on solo

04:18legendary but in group legendary works very very good um if you see the death on the radar there just

04:26i was testing another build prior to this i promise i didn't die with this build

04:29um but yeah it's a great for group legendary probably not so good for solo legendary it's real

04:36good for heroic content as you'll see now um escalate sorry retaliations in a group it's pretty

04:42decent probably wouldn't play it solo but it's better to do solo retaliation escalation i'd say

04:49lower tier escalation no problem at all in a squad with heals however um higher tier escalation

04:58as this build stands right now no i took it into a tier 10 and it just wasn't it i

05:05don't think no

05:06amount of echo is going to fix that um so bear that in mind if you're looking for any tier

05:1210

05:13escalation builds i don't think this is going to cut it however there are changes to be made to the

05:18build and maybe we'll see we'll see how it evolves there's definitely more i want to do with this build

05:24and some things i want to reject but uh real good the gameplay of the build or the gameplay loop

05:30of

05:30the build is dead simple as well just aim for the bodies and shoot that's it nothing you need to

05:35think

05:35about at all just aim for the bodies and shoot obviously you want to aim for headshots go for it

05:40but the build's set up to get that automatic headshot every two seconds with the iron will

05:45so you're going to be getting those headshots so you can stay in for the bodies and just delete

05:49enemies like i am um and they'll go down very very quickly on heroic very quick on legendary as well

05:57like you do you annihilate legendary enemies with this build i did try quick the ua solo on legendary

06:05it's just a bit rough um if you don't get the explodes gone like super super quick you're in trouble

06:12as i'm sure you're aware of legendary those grenades are murder but i like it i really like the steel

06:21sun's acr you can see how much it's beaming as well

06:31considering when we first picked up this exotic and um i did the test on the wall without moving my

06:36mouse look at it now don't you remember that it's obviously recoiling up a little bit but i think when

06:41we initially did it it was something more like this so i said we had to fix that they've made

06:48some

06:48adjustments to it anyway since the exotic got released rogue agents okay okay okay good test

06:58dialing in for a second

07:02oh melting in there

07:06hostile restore hive detected

07:11that hit me no

07:12oh

07:18oh this can be innings it's always nice to get rogue agents when we're like just showcasing testing

07:28the build

07:29and for those watching and i'm just gonna like kick apart the build and say i don't know like this

07:35is

07:35just a bit of fun we like playing with different builds we wanted new weapons to come out and stuff

07:39like the steel series weapon or the iron will chess piece want to see what we can do with them

07:44can we

07:44make them viable or push different sorts of content or whatnot like this isn't going to be the best build

07:51on the game i'm not saying it won't even be in the title it's not like you gotta have this

07:56build it's

07:57uh you know it's not striker but it's fun it's a new weapon in the game from the incursion

08:04something we can work around it works very well with aces and eights

08:08you can actually kill him now that he's actually pushed us from waiting for them to do rather than just

08:21it's very easy all clear i repeat the compound is all clear that can't be all of them check the

08:28interior while i get henry's people to maintain the perimeter

08:37looking forward to where to go with it like we're discussing at the start of the video i don't

08:41know whether to drop the fox's prayer definitely want to drop the backpack the aces backpack 100

08:46percent do not want that on it we want to bring in a backpack with vigilance um that's like you

08:54know

08:54i don't know i don't know we're gonna we're gonna play round of it i just don't know whether to

08:59drop

08:59the fox's prayer to drop the iron well as thinking dropping the iron will as good as it is getting

09:05that

09:05headshot we can just aim ourselves and not be lazy so we could drop the chess piece it opens up

09:14a lot then

09:17um like the it opens up for the aces chest for starters might just dial in a second

09:27i think the aces chest piece the extra damage you get from aces is increased so it makes a lot

09:32of sense

09:34and then we bring in the aces chest piece we can drop the backpack keep the fox's prayer

09:39and then put something else on the backpack whether it's uh headshot damage or

09:45something

09:49play around with it

09:53now i'm gonna try and dial in for the rest of the mission now so hard to record a video

09:57and

09:57talking and focus so let's try and for the rest of us to show you some focused gameplay

10:20i just died in this area as well the other build i was testing

10:25it's going to be our next guess the build video

10:35so i'm thinking about time this time

10:47so

11:05such a shame that my tier 10 test with it was just dreadful

11:11now if you watch me live in streams i test things out for the first time i make my mind

11:16up very quick on stuff and i shouldn't i need to give things time like we really need to

11:19make the adjustments we spoke about we need to get the echo maxed out on it i really don't

11:25see this being a tier 10 killer i just don't we'll find out though

11:36like the damage is there

12:06and we're to the last area make sure in the comments if you if you've got some like builds

12:11similar to this the main rule like i said the 100 rule is we've got to be using the steel

12:16suns

12:17this is the main purpose of the build i did like say wanted to try and get the iron willing

12:22but

12:22i'm gonna bring that out i think so yeah that's the only rule stealing suns exotic acr what what if

12:30you're currently using a build and you really enjoyed the aces whatever you're using with let

12:34me know in the comments because it's going to help a lot as we try to evolve this build and

12:38try and get the absolute best out of it because the goal would be you know can we get it

12:48through

12:48some tier 10 escalations it's kind of like the ultimate dps check for a build right and if you

12:55can get a build that can be decent in tier 10 escalations that's a real good thing

13:05more diversity rather than just strike though coco as it was now

13:13show you the damage for his armor without even taking off his backpack there it wrecks it's a good

13:18build i do like this it's a fun build it's nice to switch it up a little bit rather than

13:23just running

13:23striker all the time when you do more casual activities like i said um retaliations anything

13:29heroic even group legendary this is fun to work with in a group you're more than likely gonna have

13:35a healer as well which would be nice with it being an all red build yeah that was fun again

13:40i hope you

13:40did like the guess my build we are going to do a series on this and keep we'll start off

13:45new builds like

13:45that and then we'll reveal the build later like we have done with this one hopefully sooner next time

13:50it's been a bit long with this video uh but it's not finished yet this is how it is now

13:54this was the

13:55uh on my guess my build video this wasn't prototyped at the time and it's uh i i think it's

14:02a very

14:02good build but with improvements needed looking forward to seeing what you guys are doing all

14:07your suggestions in the comments go and comment down below don't forget to like this video as always
