Tom Clancy The Division Build Guide for Patch 1.7 and Build Options

Tom Clancy The Division Build Guide for Patch 1.7 and Build Options


Hi Everyone, as we all have updated the new patch 1.7 for Tom Clancy The division and with this new patch there are so many changes and new features that are going to affect the game the way it used to be played, the introduction of new classified gear which looks to be the most powerful gear set at the moment and everyone is farming GE Token to get at-least one build completed.

With this new patch three classified gear sets are introduced.

  • DeadEye.
  • FinalMeasure.
  • LoneStar

 and most of the people might be thinking that they are a must to have to have a power full build but in my opinion we have been given a lot of other options to create our own classified gear sets using the wildcard NinjaBike Messenger Backpack. the ninja bag has been reworked and is now the most wanted exotic gear piece in the division. i will show you some of the build options using NinjaBike backpack that can be equally power to the classified gear sets.

before we start lets just understand what Ninja backpack exactly is, as you know that its a wildcard gear piece, it can be used with any of the gear pieces to achieve the complete gear set bonuses, for e.g. if you have only 3 piece of Alphabridge, you can use ninja bag as the fourth piece and it will enable all the four piece bonus of AlphaBridge. this wildcard functionality opens a lot more options for the build, that you will be looking at up next.

you can create a lot of powerfull hybrid builds

Predator Striker Build:

  • 3 Piece Striker
  • 2 Piece Predators Mark.
  • 1 Piece NinjaBike Messenger Bag
with the above build configuration you will have all the 4 piece bonuses of Striker gear set for damage stacking and additional 3 piece bonuses from Predators Mark gear set because ninja bag will compensate for next set bonus. for 3 Strikers Ninja bag will be the forth gear piece and for predator, it will act as a third gear piece.


Set Bonuses for Striker Gear Set
  • Set Bonus (2):
    +20% Stability
  • Set Bonus (3):
    +10% Enemy Armor Damage
  • Set Bonus (4):
    Talent | Striker’s Battlegear
    Every consecutive hit deals 1% more damage. Stacks up to 100%. Missing shots drop bonus by 2%. Bonus is reduced by 1% every second.
Set Bonuses for PredatorsMark
  • Set Bonus (2):
    +10% Reload Speed
  • Set Bonus (3):
    +8% Assault Rifle Damage
    +8% SMG Damage
 so you can see from above bonuses how powerfull this build will be and can be used for PVP and PVE both.

Alpha Banshee Build:
  • 3 Piece AlphaBridge
  • 2 Piece BansheShadow.
  • 1 Piece NinjaBike Messenger Bag
Set Bonuses for AlphaBridge
  • Set Bonus (2):
    +100% Health Regen
  • Set Bonus (3):
    +5% Weapon Damage
  • Set Bonus (4):
    Talent | AlphaBridge
    If your Primary and Secondary Weapon is of the same category, they both gain all of the unique active talents. All talents ignore unlock requirements.

Set Bonuses for Banshee
  • Set Bonus (2):
    +20% Dark Zone Currency gained
  • Set Bonus (3):
    +10% Damage to targets out of cover
These are just examples of how you can mix match the multiple gear set bonuses using ninja bag, the possibilities unlimited, hope you have this post informative and will help you to build your own classified gear set and i would like to wrap up this post here and if you like my post please leave a comment or subscribe to my blog.

See you at The Division.

Tom Clancy The Division: Global Event: GE Tokens Reward Breakdown. Patch 1.7




The wait is over and as promised, UbiSoft launched The Division Patch 1.7 on Tuesday 15th of August, with the number of updates, new game modifiers, nerfs, buffs and highly anticipated classified gear.

The Division Introduced following new features with the Patch 1.7:

  • Global Events.
  • Classified Gear Set.
  • Face Customization.
  • Encrypted Caches.
  • Commendations & Patches
  • Face Masks
  • Some Bug Fixes, weapons and talents balancing.

In this post I wanted to bring you the breakdown for the GE Tokens that are rewarded for completing any of the following activities during weekly event called Global Event:
  • Named Enemies in the open world or DZ.
  • Mission.
  • Incursions.
 Named Enemies 

So, lets First talk about Named Enemies, you are going to get 150 GE Tokens for killing a named enemy or a named Boss and its very simple, e.g. If you complete all the 14 open world Roaming bosses you will get 2100 GE Token.

  • 14 Open world Bosses x 150 Per Boss = 2100.

Missions

For the Missions things are a bit different depending on the Difficulty of the mission and Severity level selected for the Modifier which is outbreak at this event. If you choose normal mission difficulty you will get 150 GE Credits and if you change the outbreak modifier difficulty to severe or critical you will get 50 Extra Token and off course changing the modifier will make the mission a little more challenging. 


  • Normal Mode without Severity 150 GE and adds 50 GE with Modifier.
  • Hard Mode without Severity 225 GE and adds 75 GE with Modifier.
  • Challenging  Mode Provides 750 GE only and you cannot Select the Severity for challenging missions.
  • Legendary Mode without Severity 1575 and adds 175 GE with Modifier.
following images also shows the GE Breakdown,


Normal Mission without Global Event Outbreak Modifier

Normal Mission with Global Event Modifier Difficulty (Severe or Critical ).
 

Hard Mission without Global Event Outbreak Modifier
 

 Hard Mission with Global Event Modifier Difficulty (Severe or Critical )
 

Challenging Mission
Incursions

For incursion you are also not provided with the Outbreak Severity modification and you will get the following GE Token rewards:

  • Challenging Mode 650 GE Tokens.
  • Heroic Mode 900 GE Tokens. 
 Incursion Challenging


 Incursion Heroic

so this wraps up the post and i hope you find it informative and will make it easy for you to decide which mission to choose on which difficulty to achieve your targeted GE Tokens.

little correction for Challenging and Incursions, Severity can be applied to the mission that are highlighted in Blue.
