I only play solo, 95% of the time with Negociator's. It's so underated! After learning to play with it, it's hard to play with any "single target" set. Dogs, chungas, shielded enemies become your "friends". Anoying enemies in cover become less troublesome. Enemie trying to suround you, no problem. Heroic becomes boringly easy with Negociator's. It's the most strategic set. Nice video, friend. Loved it!

One of the reasons why I still love with this game and I’m still so fascinated by it is the complexity behind build-crafting. I know, it’s not *exclusive* to the division, but it’s just super fascinating to me. You can make an hour+ long video showcasing the build without being redundant for a second. I seriously appreciate your effort and passion for this game. Or, at least, I assume you like it, otherwise I’d find it pretty hard for you to keep making all these VERY in-depth showcases :’)

​@ikia Sorry to ask in an older video but with the new season and talents does behind you crit and if so does that apply the mark on the targets?

this guy is a pearl of the division 2

Another great delivery please give this creator love his passion goes unnoticed and deserves far more

i have no words to appreciate the hard work you put in this vide hats off to you man.

Thanks for your time doing these 🙂

Think Negotiators is one of the few build archetypes I’ve never actually ran, cheers for the vid buddy

it is well worth a try, hope you have some fun with it.

Glad you brought up the DTA double-dipping. Because of this, when running Countdown and Control Points, I'd favor running contractors over coyote.

Appreciate the videos!

Thank you sir!

behind you will just act as a amp to the target you are shooting at from the little testing i did with it, meaning that if the target you are firing at is the one that matters if they are targeting you, and then whatever number you have with them gets transferred, it does not seem to matter if the other marked targets that you arent shooting at are targeting you.

Nice video.

Nice to see all these different kind of gearsets ,does this also work when you use a skill turret when you mark the enemy and the turret kills a target?

@ikia

no, none of the skills can crit, meaning they cant mark, the reason i use ND or striker in turret drone hybrids, is because they have good damage for the weapon end even with yellow cores and a capacitor, and then the turret and drone do ok dmg but are also basically 2 strong decoys for you. one of the reasons i like the ND one is that while the skills are harassing enemies, it is much easier to concentrate on keeping your marks up.

Amazing work, thank you! Anything I can do to make this build a little tankier?

if you are looking for a more tanky setup, you can put in 1 or 2 blue cores together with a shield to have a bigger eHP buffer, but also if you are wanting to run this solo, the TechTank variant can be a good option: docs.google.com/drawings/d/1eY40Hs6gUTrL3VC-631YtzOqIsmH_APx-11E95-8FSw as that makes for a very strong shield and has more than enough damage for solo heroics.

How does negotiation work with the pestilence?

there is no direct interaction, both just do their own thing, and i find usually it isnt the best combo, because a high pestistacks will often kill your marked targets, and in a unpredicatable way. one exo that actually does kind of fit in well is bluescreen, mostly because the marking mechanics for both ND and the bluescreen are very similar so you end up triggering it often, but still not the greatest pick, maybe next season with both the lmg and exotic 3 stat changes it will maybe be better.

I prefer Glass canon + Vigilance for my Dilemma build

also a good way indeed to set it up, i wanted to just stick to obli variants here, but i am planning on adding a sacrifice+gift variant into the ND recommended folder amongst 2 or 3 other setups, i will likely even revisit ND as a whole in a master class and go over all the other good setups like focus and glass, and also the wacky setups like turdro and techtank variants aswell, but likely that is a while away.

I think im getting 52/202 with st elmos and a blue belsone

What would be some of the highest damage Nego builds for Boomer? Was just reading an interesting strat Diamondback Chainkiller and all nego rolled to HSD. What about Orbit then Nemesis CK. I've tried PGC and DCH Regulus but you have to put most/all of your nego to CHC. Just curious what your thoughts are for a niche build to transfer the most CHD using only a few enemies

why are you calling the ouroboros, oreo? you've shortened it from 4 syllables to 3 syllables, good job lol. stop trying to make that a thing.

can i recommend you to just stop watching my channel, all you have tried to do sofar in the comments is to act smug and correct me, and most of the time you have gotten it wrong, here again, ouroboros is already called oreo by most, mostly because saying ouroboros is basically a tonguetwister with the amount of o's it has. also for me i dont stress the last o, so it is 2 syllables.
