In Destiny , June starts with a weapon day. Banshee-44 is back on the job on June 1st.
No rest for the restless. Exo Banshee-44 is still on duty and will have a new weapon day on June 1st. Guardians can earn reputation points with him, order weapons, and pick up others. At certain reputation levels, there are quests, that lead to exotic weapons.
These are the test weapons this week
You earn reputation points by using these test weapons as intended.
A Suros auto rifle requires precision skills.
Omolon provides a fusion rifle, with which you need to deal with Vex Minotaurs – or what you call life and limb for Vex.
A Suros rocket launcher aims to take down high-ranking enemies.
A Häkke shotgun seeks crucible kills.
In the crucible, there’s a sniper rifle from Omolon. And since it cannot go there by itself? Correct, you have to go.
These weapons you can order this week
Starting with the Ari-41, an auto rifle with “medium archetype”, high stability, low range.
The hand cannon Kumakatok from Omolon can come with perks like Roulette. But if hand cannons dominate, they are usually exotic. And at the moment, they are not dominating.
The Herja-D is a pulse rifle with quite high stability, but so far it hasn’t earned a standout reputation.
The rocket launcher SUROS JLB-47 is on offer, in case someone needs a heavy weapon. This is the “good rocket launcher” of the two variants that Banshee can sell in Destiny.
And as the last weapon, there’s the Jingukugo-D, a shotgun. It has a tongue twister as a name and otherwise few features.
Recommendation: Nothing really stands out.
These are the weapons you can pick up this week with these rolls
A rocket launcher causes a stir, the JLB 47, with a strong roll. It comes with spear, heavy load, explosive nonius, and rockets explode on approach to the target. It shoots slowly, there are only 2 rockets, but … everything else is there.
The popular Arminius-D is available this week with balanced perks, surrounded, small caliber weapon. No god roll, as a reinforced frame is missing.
A PDX 41 is available this week with perfect balance, outlaw, and small caliber weapon.
In this video, you can see the rolls for the Dis-43 and the Dis-47.

It is once again time to vent about other players. I particularly enjoy doing this, especially after a release like the recent one with Overwatch, where the density of idiots in many games significantly increases.
“Omg, Mei is cancer” and “only retards play Bastion” are still among the more friendly comments you get to read in the chat these days. Worse are the people who spend more time complaining to their own team than focusing on the game.
“D.Va is so bad, she deals no damage and her mech dies way too quickly.”
“I can’t understand how this game costs 40€ when it is so poorly balanced and lacks content. PvP gets boring after 3 rounds.”
And of course, the favorite: “Team Fortress/Battleborn/Counter Strike/Any game is so much better, why is anyone playing this at all?”
Mei is cancer! No, she’s actually just cute.
I’m glad I don’t have pencils lying on my desk because I would have broken them by the hundreds.
Almost as much as the people who have to say something stupid at the end during the “Play of the Game”. One out of twelve players receives a special honor for a cool (at least most of the time) play. And instead of congratulating the player or at least keeping their hands off the keyboard, there’s almost always an idiot in every round who has to ruin that moment with “Q of the Game” or “Wow, right-click, much skill”.
Instead of letting someone else have their “10 seconds of fame”, you have to ruin it, huh? But you know what, my dear whiners? Obviously, the displayed play was better than anything you delivered in the round. So let the other players enjoy their moment. Maybe then you won’t always have to play alone.
I look forward to the day when these players finally draw the only logical conclusion and spend their time on more meaningful things than playing a game they don’t even enjoy. Because that’s really a waste of time.
How did you perceive the first week in Overwatch? Were there many reasons to get upset? Or were you mostly spared from the annoying elements of such games?

In The Division, Ubisoft presents a video that showcases real, emotional player experiences in the Dark Zone. Guaranteed goosebumps!
According to the developers, the Dark Zone, the PvP area in The Division, is supposed to represent the most dangerous and exciting place in the game. Here, you encounter other agents, and you can never be sure whether they will simply go their own way, support you, or treacherously shoot you in the back.
Now Ubisoft has released a video titled “Dark Zone Story: The Saviour”. This is meant to depict the true story of the British Division agent EvoX_Gecko – a player who is wholeheartedly committed to the cause.
The Saviour – The Goosebumps Video from Dark Zone Experiences
The Saviour, “The Rescuer”, is said to be based on real player experiences and was entirely filmed in the Dark Zone. The focus is on EvoX_Gecko, who narrates his gripping story in this PvP area. This is how he became “The Saviour”:

The agent found himself in the Dark Zone and was surrounded by numerically superior Rikers. The situation seemed hopeless. Suddenly, two other agents appeared out of nowhere and helped him in the fight against the enemy overpowering them. They saved him.
From then on, the three of them traveled through the Dark Zone together. No words needed to be spoken. Everyone knew what to do.
At the extraction zone, the next big danger awaited them: Rogue agents! They had no chance together and had to flee – feeling the breath of their enemies on their necks. The pursuers were getting closer.
The three new friends barricaded themselves in the subway and fought bravely in the last battle. But they quickly realized that they wouldn’t come out of there alive. Therefore, the agent resolutely decided to sacrifice himself for his two former rescuers. They escaped. He did not. This is how he became “The Saviour”.
This touching story has already been seen by thousands of users and received mostly positive feedback. What do you think about it?
What stories have you experienced in the Dark Zone?
On June 12, it will finally happen. At 11 PM our time, Battlefield 1 will be publicly presented at E3. This has been officially announced by Electronic Arts and DICE Sweden.
During the presentation, a livestream of a 64-player multiplayer battle will be shown. Among the soldiers will be well-known YouTubers, streamers, and “special guests” who are set to showcase the spectacle. The two teams will be led by Stonemountain64 and Neebs from Battlefield Friends.
By the way: At the same time, new artwork was released, which also shows a soldier of the German Empire with equipment and weapons:
Battlefield 1 will be released on October 21 for PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.

Can you imagine Overwatch without weapons? A petition aims to achieve just that.
Overwatch without Weapons! A Strange Demand
Some time ago, Blizzard removed a controversial victory pose of the heroine Tracer from Overwatch because it was considered by some players to be too sexist and focused on Tracer’s backside. This decision has already deeply divided the game’s community before the release and led to a whole series of memes and mockery around this issue. Among these things is a new petition that takes the absurdity to the extreme and demands: Overwatch should manage without weapons. It says:
“Thanks to the noble organizers from the community, Jeff Kaplan and Blizzard have finally done the right thing and removed the terribly sexist and offensive victory pose of a female character, known as ‘The Tracer.’ While that is a good start, we still have many concerns in the gaming community regarding Overwatch, including the use of weapons to brutally kill other players, sometimes even cruelly in the form of headshots.
We, the gaming community, want to put an end to this brutality. Please sign this petition if you agree. If we clean Overwatch of all these problematic weapons and sexuality, then we finally have a first-person shooter that we can play with our whole family.”
Overwatch without Weapons – a very absurd demand.
So far (as of 01.06.2016, 6:00 AM), this petition has already gathered 13,700 supporters, who probably do not take it very seriously – at least some comments suggest so.
“The game needs more violence, less clothing, and of course many sex scenes with a lot of variety, so we can teach our children what kind of porn exists and they can figure out faster what they actually like.”
“Weapons ruin the game and should have been removed during the beta.”
Mein-MMO says: Silly? A bit.

The director of the Warcraft movie promises nearly 40 extra minutes – but only if the film is a success at the box office.
Success is a prerequisite for 37 extra minutes of Warcraft
For nearly a week now, the Warcraft movie has been showing in German cinemas and already has a considerable length of 123 minutes. However, the work was originally supposed to be 37 minutes longer, with a total running time of 2 hours and 40 minutes. As is often the case in the film industry, numerous scenes have been cut or even completely removed from the theatrical version of the film to meet various requirements and producer expectations.
Fans are particularly eager to see the additional scenes at some point. But what needs to happen for a “Director’s Cut” version of the film to be released? Duncan Jones then gave a pretty direct answer: “There will be no extended version of the film if Warcraft is not a success at the box office. That’s just how things are.”
Some of the cut scenes have already been discussed. There is a “connective piece” as an Easter egg that links Duncan Jones’s various films together. The song “I am the One and Only” by Chesney Hawkes was used as an alarm sound in his film “Moon” and as a ringtone in “Source Code.” In Warcraft, it was supposed to be used as a medieval version by a bard – but it didn’t make it into the theatrical version.
But other scenes also fell victim to the cut. It was planned to show the attack of a troll tribe – presumably to add a bit more life and color to the world. However, the scene was too expensive and had too little to do with the main plot, which is why it was cut fairly early on.

Last night, the alleged manufacturer of the bot contacted us. It is Blizzard’s old friend Bossland, a bot company from Zwickau, with whom Blizzard has been in a constant conflict. They have been suing each other for 6 years, and it will soon go before the Federal Court.
The company’s CEO, Zwetan Letschew, told us: This is the program of his company. There is no other. However, the Chinese resellers were selling it quite expensively. They probably wanted to make a quick profit. And they exaggerated a bit: an aimbot is not included in the “product”.
Mein MMO says: It looks like we’re not only top-notch in beer, bread, and cars, but also in bots for Blizzard games.

Only three days left until the Kickstarter campaign for the MMORPG Chronicles of Elyria ends, and the developers have revealed some new details about the online game.
In an AMA session on Reddit, the developers of Chronicles of Elyria answered questions from fans. One of the questions raised was how an indie team can undertake such an ambitious project. CEO Jeromy Walsh explained that he previously worked at Microsoft, where he developed an architecture that he is now applying to Chronicles of Elyria. Clouds and the integration of the .NET architecture play a crucial role here. Additionally, they use as much middleware as possible, so not everything has to be developed in-house.
About Crafting and Griefers …
A day in the game lasts 1.5 hours, a night 1 hour, and you’ll go through a season in one day. This way, farmers should have something to do every day and not have to wait weeks for winter. Crafting will operate through Crafting Stations that can be created by players or purchased from others. Pro server, 100,000 characters will be active, which counts not only the players, but also the NPCs.
Furthermore, there will be a close watch to ensure that griefers do not ruin the fun for others. Those caught repeatedly killing a player will not only face financial losses due to the shortened lifespan in prison, but may also be excluded from certain locations. They are also relying on the community and hope for guilds that will hunt down griefers.
Survival in the Wilderness
To survive in the wilderness, you need food and water, and you should always stay near guards or hire bodyguards. Maps also help with navigation. The better your cartography skill is, the more detailed maps you can create. However, it can only be done at a crafting station. Maps can also be forged or copied, but that requires a high skill.
The environment is also supposed to be destructible, just like buildings. However, the necessary voxel technology will only be examined after the Kickstarter campaign. You can give commands to NPCs, but they won’t always follow them. Whether an NPC follows a player depends on reputation. The better you get along with an NPC, the greater the likelihood that they will follow commands. The MMORPG Chronicles of Elyria has exceeded its Kickstarter funding goal and reached the first stretch goal. However, reaching further stretch goals by June 3rd is looking tight…
In The Division, there’s a trick to complete the raid “Clear Sky” more easily: By doing the “Moonwalk”!
The most difficult part of the new raid “Clear Sky” is that agents must transport two fuses to the designated fuse boxes. The agent who picks up a fuse faces several challenges: they can only walk very slowly, cannot take cover, and are defenseless against enemy bullets.
Only the other agents can shoot their way clear and support them with heals. If the situation becomes critical, the carrier must drop the fuse and quickly take cover.
This task would be significantly easier if the fuse carrier could run faster. Clever agents have now found a trick to achieve this!
The Fuse, the Moonwalk, and Me
YouTuber Rockn Rolla shows in the video how to get the fuse into the box faster – by running backwards:

All you need for this is the individual skill “Survival Link”. When you activate this and pick up the fuse, you gain speed advantages – but only when you run backwards with the box in hand. It is also recommended to move a little diagonally while doing so.
Some agents have directly made references to Michael Jackson’s famous Moonwalk and dubbed the trick “The Michael Jackson Glitch”.
Note: The above video does not show a fuse in the raid “Clear Sky”. However, this trick apparently works with all portable fuses in the game. It has already been confirmed by some users in the reddit forum that it also works in the raid. However, one must be careful where to run – to avoid getting stuck somewhere.
ASTA has launched and brings with it the first expansion. The Berserker is already available as a new class.
New Class and Race at the Release of ASTA
After an extra long beta phase, today, May 31, 2016, the big day has arrived when ASTA is finally released. Those who enjoy a more traditional MMORPG experience (and have a rather outdated computer) might find their true revelation in ASTA. Along with the release of the game comes the first expansion “Wrath of the Berserkers”, which expands ASTA with the new race of Raksa and their exclusive class “Berserker”.
The colleagues from mmorpg.com had the opportunity to speak in advance with the Assistant Producer of Webzen, Pierre Vandenbroucke, who revealed some details about the expansion.
According to him, PvP players will particularly enjoy the expansion, as they will receive the open PvP zone “Wado”, where there are only a few safe cities – players must therefore constantly expect an attack from the opposing faction.
Lastly, the expansion brings “the usual things”, namely: new items in crafting and better equipment to accommodate the increased level cap.

the MMORPG Final Fantasy 14 (PC, PS3, PS4) receives a significant amount of new content with Patch 3.3. – “Revenge of the Horde” – A new trailer is set to prepare us for the update and sweeten the waiting time.
On June 7th, Patch 3.3 will bring the update “Revenge of the Horde” for Final Fantasy 14. In it, we make contacts with wild Moogle tribes, utilize the new gear set system and experience a completely new chapter in the main story of FF14. Additionally, there are two new dungeons and the dragon Nidhogg as a boss.
All these innovations are presented by developer studio Square Enix in a stunning trailer, which we have also embedded here. This should make the wait until June 7th go by a bit faster.

Overwatch will be getting some new heroes – but what kind of hero would you like to see?
What role should the next hero fulfill?
With a total of 21 heroes, Overwatch is already relatively diverse, but Blizzard has already announced before the release of the shooter that there will be more heroes. These will be released for free, along with additional maps and game modes planned for the future.
The current heroes are divided into a total of 4 categories that better define their role: there are 6 offense heroes, 6 defenders, 5 tanks, and 4 supports so far. However, these classifications are rather flexible and not a rigid categorization, as a Roadhog can also work well as an offense hero, while a Soldier: 76 can also provide solid support when communication in the game is good.
Cortyn says: I would like to see another support character that functions like Abathur in Heroes of the Storm. A supporter who hides in a more or less concealed location and “hacks” into the technical devices of their teammates from there, boosting them with shields or an additional turret. Alternatively, they could also “hack” into enemies and impair their vision – there are numerous possibilities like slight screen shakes or a sudden “ammunition loss”. The idea of a sniper healer who injects healing substances into friends over long distances also sounds intriguing.
What ideas do you have for new heroes? What abilities are you missing and what should definitely make it into the game?

In Destiny, a Guardian showcases a super exploit that could have devastating effects on game balance.
In the latest letter to the community, Bungie proudly announced that they had fixed a massive, previously secret bug, before it could spread within the community. This exploit seemingly allowed a Guardian class to obtain “infinite super”. Community Manager DeeJ thanked the players who pointed it out on non-public channels before the bug became public.
However, a new bug has appeared in the reddit forum that fits Bungie’s description. Allegedly, this one also works after the latest hotfix.
If the Golden Gun of the Hunter Lasts Forever
The Guardian Wolfgang Jacobson has documented the quirky super exploit on video and recently presented it in the reddit forum. This bug causes the Golden Gun, the super of the Gunslinger subclass of the Hunter, to last indefinitely: It remains constantly active.
It is also possible to switch subclasses freely while holding the Golden Gun. This way, he can choose the Nightstalker subclass and use Shadowshot. The Hunter can also use other abilities, such as grenades or smoke bombs, despite having the Golden Gun active.
Since this glitch works in both PvE and PvP, it could significantly disrupt balance. After all, it is not intended for the Hunter to use the Golden Gun and Shadowshot simultaneously.
The resourceful Guardian states that he has no intention of making this exploit available to the community, therefore he would not be publishing a tutorial. He has also tried to contact Bungie but has not received a response yet. It is in the interest of the community and the Crucible that he keeps this confidential.
The following video shows the bug in action. As the user initially did not plan to upload the video, it has become somewhat lengthy in parts:

The “highlights” can be found under these timestamps::
0:20: Shadowshot during active Golden Gun 2:21: Switch to Blade Dancer subclass 2:45: Invisibility with active Golden Gun 5:36: One shot with the Golden Gun is fired after being active for over 5 minutes. 6:36: Blade Dancer super is used, interrupting the Golden Gun.
So far, he has discovered four things that can interrupt this exploit: boarding a Sparrow, using the Blade Dancer super or the Gunslinger super (again), and dying.
How Bungie will react to this exploit remains to be seen. If the use of it becomes known, we will have to be even more cautious of Hunters in the future – until the issue is resolved.

For The Elder Scrolls Online (PC version), the latest DLC “Dark Brotherhood” is released today. In this, our heroes can join the notorious assassin sect and become a murderer. We have summarized all the information about the expansion for you.
For many weeks, the developers at Zenimax have been revealing new details about the upcoming DLC “Dark Brotherhood”. The mysterious assassins from the cult of the dark brotherhood are by no means the only contents from the latest expansion for TESO. Rather, there is also an improvement of the group finder, so that we can now kick unwanted players from the team, among other things.
In addition, the PvP will be restructured around the Imperial City and the already controversial system of veteran ranks has been replaced with the new champion levels. With the release of Dark Brotherhood, there is also the option to buy additional character slots via cash shop!
Assassinating with Style!
However, the DLC itself is also full of useful content. Most notably the new sets, which we can loot and outfit our heroes as stylish assassins. Optimal to fulfill the first murder contracts in the new missions as a freshly recruited member of the brotherhood. The matching skills, including a one-hit assassination attack, are also available in the DLC.
For fans of previous Elder Scrolls games, there is also a reunion with familiar areas and locations, especially the town of Kvatch, where in the distant future, the hero from Oblivion will become the savior of the Empire.
By the way, Bethesda boss Matt Firor hopes for a similar great success with Dark Brotherhood as with the predecessor DLC Thieves Guild. The expansion with the Thieves Guild was very well received by the players, and the assassins should have no problems.

The hero shooter Overwatch has shot to the top of the UK sales charts.
The British are always the quickest when it comes to sales impressions. Chart Track publishes early in the week what has been sold in stores on the island the week before. This does not include “digital sales”, only what has gone through the counter. However, there are strong indications, that Overwatch has indeed sold more in this way than is usual for games nowadays.
According to the numbers, Overwatch is clearly number 1 ahead of Uncharted 4 and Doom. Homefront comes in at number 4, Total War: Warhammer enters at number 9.
As Chart Track reports, Overwatch is the console title from Blizzard that has sold the fastest. Admittedly, there isn’t much competition. Blizzard is traditionally a PC publisher, although Diablo 3 was also launched on consoles.

In World of Tanks, we will soon not only blast tanks, but also play soccer with the steel colossi. On the occasion of the 2016 European Championship, Wargaming has announced the popular tank soccer game mode.
Soccer and tanks don’t go together? Not true, because on the occasion of the Football European Championship, the popular tank soccer mode is also making a comeback in World of Tanks! In this fun game variant, six players fight in a 3vs3 match for a ball, which they literally “blast” into the goal with precise cannon shots. Additionally, there’s a “turbocharger” for quick speed boosts.
All of this is played with the special T-62a Sport, a tank variant that is only available for the event and which every player automatically receives in their garage. Simply click on the tank and press “Battle” to get started! By the way, you cannot destroy the tanks of other players, only their tracks can be damaged temporarily by fire and need to be repaired. There are three maps for the new game mode: Himmelsdorf Arena, Stade Eiffel, and Old Tankford. The tank soccer game mode starts on June 1, 2016, and is expected to run for 30 days.
On to the tank soccer tournament!
Besides the quick fun, there’s also something for true e-sports professionals. From June 1 to June 15, teams of three players can register for the official championship in tank soccer, and the four best teams will receive one year of premium for free as well as a Type 59 tank. Additionally, the top four teams from Europe will compete in the finals against the top four teams from the CIS. A prize pool of 5,000 US dollars is at stake!
In the western regions, fans have been waiting a long time to finally get their hands on an English version of Monster Hunter Online that is understandable. So far, the game is only available in the Chinese version, and according to the latest statements from the developers, a translation for the western market is not currently planned.
Originally, the release of the patch was planned for yesterday, May 30, 2016. However, Team HD announced at the last minute that the English fan patch will not be released on May 30 after all. The reason for this is that either today (May 31) or tomorrow (June 1), the game servers of Monster Hunter Online will undergo maintenance, which could coincide with a new game version. To avoid any complications during the release of the patch, it has now been postponed to “sometime” after the server maintenance in order to make necessary changes. The patch is therefore expected to be released later today or during the course of tomorrow.
The fans will have to be patient for a few more hours until Monster Hunter Online is finally playable in English. But after all the long months of waiting, the last hours will probably not be a hurdle.
In an FAQ, Aslind Samure points out that the patch is currently only a “beta” and that they plan to translate the entire game later. They want to work through the “important” points first and then move on to the “minor details” like NPC dialogues and similar things. By the way, Team HD does not accept donations – the team there does this completely voluntarily to serve the worldwide community.
The gamigo AG and Aeria Games Europe GmbH have announced a merger.
Subject to approval by the antitrust authorities, the two companies, gamigo AG and Aeria Games Europe GmbH, will merge. This was officially announced by the companies. A large, common platform for online gamers is to be created.
gamigo and Aeria Games will be a major publisher
Through the extensive reach of the joint company and the offering of games in more than 40 countries, substantial synergy potentials are to be realized, reaching many players. The games in the portfolio include MMORPGs and browser games such as Echo of Soul, Fiesta Online, Aura Kingdom, and Desert Operations, as well as many mobile games, including Goal One and Dawn of Gods. For the coming years, more online games are already in planning, such as Diddl and Bless.
In the B2B sector, the companies will also complement each other, for example, with platforms such as browsergames.de and deutschland-spielt.de. Here, the focus will particularly be on continuing to offer multi-channel advertising and platform services. The merger of gamigo AG and Aeria Games results in ProSiebenSat.1 contributing 100% of its stake in Aeria Games to gamigo AG and becoming a 33 percent minority shareholder. Aeria Games was acquired by ProSiebenSat.1 in February 2014. Since then, the mobile sector of the publisher has been pushed forward.
Remco Westermann, CEO of gamigo AG, comments: „We will jointly develop one of the leading European platforms for online and mobile games internationally. Our synergies are strong, and we plan to generate further profitable revenue growth both organically and through acquisitions; both in terms of reach, portfolio, technology, as well as distribution channels and partner networks. Together we have a leading market position.”
Oliver Strutynski, Managing Director Aeria Games: „The merger of gamigo and Aeria Games creates a new, strong player in the international gaming business, which is well positioned.”

In The Division, we take a look at the new gear set “Lonely Hero” and show you how to get the most out of the set.
The new gear set “Lonely Hero” is viewed with skepticism by many players: it is specifically geared toward the unloved weapon types shotgun and LMG, and this curious reloading thing doesn’t seem to be the best – compared to other set talents. Therefore, you often read opinions like “The set is garbage”, “The set doesn’t even increase the DPS value”, or “The set has no useful advantages at all”.
The YouTuber Skill Up now comes to the defense of “Lonely Hero” and proclaims: This is the best new gear set!
What does “Lonely Hero” offer in The Division?
This gear set was introduced with update 1.2 in Ubisoft’s MMO shooter. It consists of a total of six individual parts. You can acquire the holster and the mask as blueprints from the special equipment vendor in the operations base.
The best source for the individual pieces seems to be the high-ranking targets: numerous agents report that these new PvE bosses predominantly drop pieces of the Lonely Hero. You can quickly get your hands on the gear.
Once you have several pieces of it collected, additional talents will be unlocked. With 4 pieces, the unique talent activates. It is intended by Massive that primarily shotguns and light machine guns can benefit from this.
2 pieces: +100% magazine capacity. This bonus also considers the ammo boosts from other armor pieces. These will then be combined and doubled. You will get an extremely large amount of ammunition. Very useful!
3 pieces: +1000 damage from shotguns and +1000 damage from light machine guns. Since both weapon groups currently belong to the “Lower Class” in The Division, even this bonus is not enough to put them in the spotlight.
4 pieces:Talent “Lonely Hero”: When you swap weapons and aim again, it receives full ammunition. This allows you to keep firing at the enemies, as the reload time is eliminated.
This unique talent can significantly change your playstyle and greatly affect the quality of your gaming experience. In fact, it also has a considerable effect on the damage you put out over time – because you never have to reload. You have more time available to pump enemies full of bullets.
You don’t deal more damage per bullet, but your damage per time dealt is greatly increased.
Choose these weapons for the Lonely Hero:
Even though the set is designed for shotguns and LMGs, these weapon types are still not recommendable. Skill Up advises using an SMG – like the AUG – and as a secondary weapon, an assault rifle.
Currently, there is no way around the submachine guns: especially at distances under 20 meters, they perform strongly.
For longer distances, precision rifles are normally the best choice – like the M1A. However, this weapon type does not fit the playstyle you need to adopt with “Lonely Hero” to get the most out of the set. Therefore, choose a strong assault rifle in The Division as a secondary weapon.
How to skill yourself for the “Lonely Hero” set
The major advantage of the “Lonely Hero” talent is that you can constantly shoot at opponents. This requires an offensive style. If you prefer to operate from the background and take your time per bullet, this set is not for you.
Therefore, in the build for “Lonely Hero”, you should focus heavily on toughness, so you become as “tanky” as possible. You don’t want to hide behind covers forever and wait for opportune moments, but continuously shoot at the enemies. However, this will also mean that you will take some bullets yourself.
Therefore, the recommendation: Focus on toughness in the build! Otherwise, the firearms attribute is the second priority.
Use these skills and talents
The skills and talents here have only one task: to keep you alive while you deal damage non-stop.
These are the skills:
First Aid with Overdose
Impulse Provider with Tactical Scanner.
Individual Skill: Survival Link
However, keep in mind: since you are not focusing on electronics in this build, the skills are not very effective.
These are the talents:
Medicinal Rescue: Use a medikit when health is low to receive 40% damage resistance for 10 seconds. Since you will often have low health with this build, you will benefit from this talent. As well as the following:
Counter: At low health, you reduce active skill cooldown time by 20%.
On the Move: If you kill an enemy while moving, the damage taken is reduced by 30% for 10 seconds. With the “Lonely Hero” set, you don’t want to just hide behind covers, but aggressively engage with the enemies. Therefore, you will often be on the move.
One is None: If you hit your enemy with a headshot, there is a 50% chance that the bullet will not be consumed. It essentially bounces back into your magazine. This talent is still somewhat buggy and can cause the weapon to jam when reloading. However, since you don’t need to reload with “Lonely Hero”, this is not an issue.
