I like using Picaro's for Hybrid momento builds to get like 6 yellows, 4 red, 2 blues that i like to use in legendary

One armor core is useless. 2 is minimum. Obliterate is much better choice then trying to maintain 200 stacks. Ceska/grupo combo is king.

Picaros the pvp special

''I'd rather Palisade at this point'' LMAO!!!

I've always wondered is would a blue core Fenris holster (for those focused on their armor total) be equal to Picaros (when you consider you'll get brand set bonus and 2 red attributes instead)

So the memento does that count towards the weapon damage on the holster or its it cores only sorry for my explanation

Thanks bud for pointing this out appreciated 👍

Picarro is definitly 1 of the best in slot holsters, Contractors are one of the best in slot gloves...

To play devil’s advocate, I could sort of see that picaro’s build with coyotes and 4 strikers working pretty well in casual solo legendary runs. Striker chest can be utilized to its full potential most of the time in that specific context, as well as the incursion. But, to be honest, if I were to go down that route I’d much prefer switching to a palisade holster, whether it was with a blue core or a red

And what to run if you already have Ceska and Grupo, Palisades or Walker Harris?

So if I'm running 4 piece Strikers that has chest and backpack as Strikers, with Coyote's, what should I fill the last slot with? What slot and what piece?

Only point would be a 6 Red 3 Yellow build but for strikers goons, that will mean being stuck with the ninja backpack or no exotic armor at all so yeah, better stick with a full DPS build and with skills effective at tier 0.

I think at this point ST Elmos and Striker plus whatever the hell you want is what is really going on rn. Its just so powerful.

they should of left it with the 3rd attribute

Piccaros for Pvp...all day every day.

if I am running that build I have about 47% chc with everything else chd. more often pve solo I have momento, soko chest blue obliterate with 4 striker with elmos and dark winter or oro and rail/shieldsplinter. works for me and my play style.

For open world, it's 6 red 4 yellow, for me, not strikers. Capacitor hits 5-600k before momento stacks. Great utility for all around farming, hostage, CP bounties.

Shield up time ? Milliseconds count

I feel like i saw 12 "you got nothing to run exept strikers and now i gona tell you why" in a row from you. Are you gona make it for every gear piece or what ?

Never see you doing PVP, all your arguments are pve based so...

look at a P-Hero holster as a Red/Blue core in one

This video is overdue. For months I have been seeing everyone wearing this holster and for months I was baffled by it. When I tested the holster on anything I just lost a bit of damage. Why trade a second stat & stat bonus?? Adding one blue core can be semi worth it BUT ONLY if you are running a shield. T0 Shield = 1,386,971 HP - T1 Shield = 1,917,869 -> 38.2% increase 1 blue = 22.6% more armor / 38.2% better shield / Increase in Regen & AOK totals Dod has pointed out to me that the loss of 1 red is 6.5% DPS I personally run 2 blues on most builds. I dont care about the extra armor as far as stopping damage, I only care about the recovery jump I get from the extra armor, I will add as a caveat that in all of these builds the weapons are +15 / +25.

picaro holster has the 15 % weapon dmg is better then a 15% crit chance or crit dmg also you can have 1 of this attributes on it blue core 15% wdmg with crit chance you loose 15 crit dmg

I don’t agree with you often…. Ever really but this yes. Yes I agreee

Also when are you coming back streaming. Miss your angry brit streams. Raving & Rants.

Dod!!

Not really worth it on strikers. Just run coyote's mask and striker bp, kneepads, gloves, holster and a chest of your choice with obliterate. I run that with Elmo's, rock n' roll, and a W&H chest with obliterate. Even at 3-3 red to blue you're going to hit 500k-800k crits and with striker's shield with a 5% damage per enemy mod you can peak your crits over 1m for door/spawn camps. That's at 12 or 13 expertise by the way.

I think another benefit of Picaros is if you want to unlock 50% Mag size (3pc brazos. If u are gonna use brazos for that, it’sa no brainer to wear picaros. If you run a high rpm weapon that can clear that extra 50% mag in less than 1 second, you’ve essentially increased your dps by 50%. I agree it’s not best in slot, I don’t run it with most my builds, but that’s just one factor I think you left out, unless I missed it

I find it BS that there is no Weapon DMG attribute for its core. Massive was planning on giving to us, but backpaddled when they thought it would be too OP. I don't even use this holster because of its poor excuse for it not to go full red.

Before I gained the wonderful knowledge of build theory and knowing what would be best in slot (BIS), I used to run this exact setup for incursion. Nowhere else. Keeping 200 Stacks is almost impossible. Whoever said this build was godly for open world PvE content must be scraping the bottom of the barrel. After finding out that a 6 red core build using Picaro's for the free armor... Is useless. 1 armor attribute to get all of 900k armor (from about 750k) is not worth trading crits. Crits is quite literally where your damage comes from! Use ceska instead. Or, if your crit chance is high enough, use Grupo. Picaro's, at least in my opinion, is really only good in PvP. Same way Ninjabike backpack is. Everybody and their mom is running Ninjabike + 3 piece umbra + picaro's + whatever gear piece and the Capacitor. Same with system corruptiom builds, 4 piece SC, unbreakable chest and picaro's holster (4 or 5 blue cores, 1 or 2 red cores). You could go with a combat medic build as well, 3 piece future initiative, ninjabike backpack, picaro's holster and a murakami chest piece with Empathic resolve. Free blue from picaro's, free blue from ninja, and you take technician for the skill tier and healing. Take a flatline AR, future at full armor grants 15% weapon damage, picaros grants another, and a flatline socom MK16 grants another 15%. If built properly, you can keep 6 skill tiers, 3 blues, and 3 reds on a healing build with 240% repair skills. Can ditch picaro's for regular brazos holster and do armor/repair skills/skill haste for a slight boost in skill haste Youre very much right, Picaro's is good but it isn't at the same time. Very niche builds use it and most are probably pvp builds

15 percent chc is not more damage than 15% weapon damage. smdh

Do a review of matador and sokolov chest vs soko chest and backpack with AR. Armor on all items crit change and damage.

the only thing I can see picaros being useful for is skill/weapon hybrids by putting a yellow core on and getting the skill tier from the brand bonus with a second piece. I can't ever see running one of those so /shrug

85% of players are casual and just want to play without doing r and d about builds. Out of the last 15%, 2% are KZfaqrs who half understand the math and tell the other 85% what to build. Thats why ... most "why do players" in any game, let alone Division , do anything.

😂

Definitely not my favourite, haven’t found any real use for it

Picaro's is only good for 2 things, pvp and if u are using ninjabike bag

I find stacking builds (Heartbreaker/Striker) for open world are underwhelming. So to claim it's the best is just a big facepalm moment.

Honestly my question to you is why are you running meta and hating on people who are clearly having fun and it works for them?... Why don't you run what you want and have people enjoy themselves with what they want?... Fun builds are challenging, meta builds are boring... Why don't you run a headshot build since that's actually a harder hitter in the end?... GG on the explanation for those who were looking to learn and I'm all for it, but in the end I run fun builds that look dumb and just outshine on legendary runs as I facetank 2 chungas with 2 blues...
