Here is the list of changes implemented during the server restart of April 12:

  • Named enemies in Challenge mode will now only guarantee one High-End item like all the other named enemies
  • Incursion: Falcon Lost
    • The APC will no longer take damage from players’ weapons
    • The APC’s Mortar weapon will now fire correctly
  • Several fixes to improve server stability

 
Meh I fecking hate gear score and have done for years (was implemented into WoW probably 5 years ago). I'm currently at 155 not sure how much time I'll put into the game going forward though.

Sorry if I gatecrashed your party :lol:, I thought I was joining somebody else but apparently not, so I just rolled with it.

As for my gear score, I was at 149 when I logged on. Bought the 2 pieces of striker gear from the vender (gives me +20% to armor) and a few other bits from the DZ and I am up to 160 or so. That 20% bonus is great, really helps rip through enemies.

DZ was quite kind to me unexpectedly. A supply drop dropped, and it was guarded by a Named guy and some heavy gunners (Dunno if it dropped into a boss spawn area or this is normal), but I got put down, and some group revived me, although I got nothing from the crate :lol:

Can these special gear items be dropped by named characters, or bought only?

Ha no probs man! You actually saved our asses as the DZ was fecked for us :lol: we just gave up and extracted as I couldn't even open up my map or inventory!

My mate got Nomad gloves in the DZ, so special gear can be extracted alright. No idea how or who dropped it, it was some form of Npc.
 
been spamming lexington challenge mode in like 15-20 min runs, 4 guaranteed 163-184 HE's per. took my gearscore from 125-170 today, feeling pretty chuffed.

Typical, missed out on the massive amount of extra highends as I didn't spam challenge modes and now they nerf it.

How have you increased your crit and headshot damage - is is mainly from weapon attachments, or gear mods?

Just curious as to the best way to do it.

So the incursion is just one fecking room with waves and waves of enemies? :lol: Absolute joke.

That was my feeling, I understand it's similar to destiny's raids but that had some veriaty. I quickly got bored but maybe in a group of 4 it might be better instead of just me and @marksy trying to do it as 2 man group :lol:.
 
Tried that Incursion on Hard thinking it was aimed towards solo play. Lets just say I haven't completed it yet :lol:

As for the daily mission to extract 3 items from the DZ. Either I was very unlucky, but when I got there, I was faced with 5 enemies before I even fired, then while I was waiting, a group of cleaners and them ones with the balaclavas turned up along with one of them very heavily suited up Elites.
So maybe they are trying to make it a little bit more challenging to get the reward
 
Seems like loads of people on Xbox are losing their characters.

Ubi has said they are aware of the problem and trying to fix.

Would assume that the characters are not technically lost - but if they are then Ubi are screwed!

Which DZ area were you trying to extract from? I'm still only around DZ01-02 at the moment, but the extraction point next to the Abandoned Gas Station in 02 was bedlam, plenty of enemies spawning like you say, but a load of players fighting over the 4 extraction spots at once too. Thankfully I just legged it to the DZ01 extraction which was quiet, I was carrying 9 HE items :D I had 1 HE item prior to the update, now I've just got ridiculous amounts in one evening, I even got a Path of the Nomad backpack from killing a named enemy in DZ01.

Since the balancing out system was introduced, I'm noticing a lot more people in the DZ and a lot more going rogue in 0-160... which has mainly backfired on them, they seem to be swarmed by other users banding together and hunting them down :lol:
 
My gear score is 149 and DZ ranking is only 15 after going in only as part of one of the missions early on, the DZ is kind of intimidating if i'm honest :lol:

I'm going to start doing more sessions in there to improve my gear score though.

This is a joke. I can't play with my mates because I'm over 161 gear score. Ive u equipped all my golds and its brought me down to 140 and ive logged out and back in and still can't play with them as im still top bracket? feck sake

My mate is over 161, i can join the 161+ DZ class by selecting it in the group options.

So at least they can join you if you can't join them.
 
I bought the purple First Wave M1A from the vendor in the DZ - has the Balanced talent which makes all the difference in the world! I hadn't had an M1A with Balanced before - but the reticule just stays totally still after every shot - no bloom or time needed to re-aim.

The gun is level 31 I think - would ideally want a HE one, and there is a blueprint for one that I would obviously love, but have no chance of getting to level 75 before it restocks. But saying that, I think I would take a Balanced purple M1A over a HE M1A that didn't have that talent - it really does make that much difference.

Obviously a HE M1A with Balanced and Brutal would be nice :)

Just switched off, but what's your username, I'll add for later use.

My stats atm are:
Primary: 120,122 - HE Vector
Secondary: 116,256 - Superior Scar-L
Health: 78,750
Skill: 14,424
Gear Level: 173

It's Darth Strife. I know it's shit but I made it purely to get DLC for KotoR and I'm not paying to change it.

My stats are:
Primary: 121, 531 - Midas
Secondary: 120, 061 - Liberator(although as soon as I've enough credits I'm going to buy Tenebrae sniper rifle if I don't find a better one.)
Health: 71, 938
Skill: 17, 723
Gear Level: 169

So we are pretty damn similar.
 
Think I'm actually done with this game now, all trophies unlocked and the update is nothing exciting from what I've seen

I agree to an extent. For me, the campaign was very average. The DZ is quite fun but clearly repetitive.
For me it needs something, some objective games so we can actually use our equipment, because, to be honest, right now, what's the point of this game. Get better gear, but for what?

On a side note, being that I am very impatient, I've done the weekly mission :lol:

agreed, I just couldn't find a good enough reason to keep looking for better gear. traded in and got £38, so 3 days of game time and got around the same money back as I paid for it
 
Got my gear score up to 162. A guy accidently went rogue so I was a bastards and put him down. Got the high end vector off of him for his troubles! 5 gold gear pieces with just one purple left now

Not sure I can even be bothered to unlock all trophies may just trade it in.
 
I think they have gotten the loot completely wrong. They have made greens, blues and now purples almost irrelevant. It takes no time at all to get to a stage where you have mainly purple gear with maybe an odd yellow, then to all yellow.

The progression from being excited to see a blue drop, to being disappointed with the yellow drop you have just received is way too fast.

I still like the game, but not sure how they can address the above - the horse having bolted and all that.

Also, the Level 160 split for the DZ is ridiculous - it should be more like 180 at a minimum. The difference between someone who has mainly level 30 gear and weapons (and is pushed into the 160+ range) to someone who is crafting the highest rated weapons and gear in the game is huge. Given that they have added additional layers of DZ levels, it doesn't make sense that they established such a low division between the levels.
