Multiple Platforms The Division 2 - Status Striker Build PVE

[altf404]

FUN FUN FUN, NO BORING STRIKER BUILD HERE!

Here is a mix of two fun builds, status effects with the base striker stacks topped with a hefty side of armor.

Gear
Build 4 pieces of striker, mask, gloves, holster, kneepads.
All blue cores up top all gear, crit chance , status effects or other beneficial damage mods/attributes

Chest Cherished with Perfect Trauma (20s cooldown for two separate status effects), alt roll trauma on high end piece with good rolls.
Backpack, Named item ‘The Courier’(10m aoe 10s cooldown ) , alt roll Creeping Death talent on backpack with rolls for stats of this build.
Note on the two named items above I have found the +10 Status Effects to be very noticeable, both of mine have this for +20% total.

Weapons
Main: St Elmo Ar
Secondary: recommend SMG (Slingshot rocks here) with high +Critical Hit Chance adds to base CHC stat, talent perpetuation.
Pistol: Whatever
Tip: Use the perpetuation SMG weapon most of the time, save elmo shock for when needed, status spam that hurts em.

Skills
Crusader Shield (tier 6 if all gear has blue cores recommended)
Reviver Hive

Specialization
Gunner for riot foam grenades, armor on kill, extra ammo

Season Modifiers
Assault Link, all blue cores so more damage then refills ammo when in a pinch, be aware it resets tiers for multitasker passive.
Multitasker, I try getting max tiers in stamina, electronics, and firearms for the extra buffs and keep them.
Loaded up, you should have near 60% crit hit chance so this gives extra crit hit damage.
The best kind of defense, again all blue cores lots of armor is more headshot damage.

Gameplay is simple run and gun with excellent damage of strikers gear set but now with interrupts of blind, shock, riot foam. Some extra damage of bleed ticks and due to Creeping Death applies to all enemies in 10m range every 10 seconds, perpetuation talent on SMG for 75% more status damage/duration . Pretty dang fun build, as usual the shield is a ‘oh shit’ or push use. Im using this for the 5x XP event because one shot builds bore me.

Modify the build to your liking, maybe no shield and less blue cores for more damage. Great for all activities PVE, solo heroics, legendaries, open world.
