Man I love this build. Tested it in the DZ today. Definitely felt like most valuable player in the team. The shield seams to intimidate other agents. One group actually ran away.
Even though it was a long video it was full of valuable information needed to build something like this. You gave us the gear pieces and the attributes, you also gave us the talents and skills. Not many youtubers do that so thank you. You also have us the mods as well. Top notch video! Subscribed.
i am apart of the upper echelon group and i have to say i am glad i have found this build as you have just helped me on making my shield build a lot better xD
this video helped me out alot just got the pieces haven't rolled anything yet because I really didn't know what to roll. but thanks bro keep up the good work
great video. I did not have the chance to get the chest piece yet, but it's up high on my list. this set is my favorite so far, i run this with a pp -19 and a lot of + ammo which yields a 120 shot magazine. with this combination I am tanky and shoot forever. works like a charm :)
Barett's chest piece just dropped for me today and I was able to build a similar build. Thanks for inspiring us. Tried this with an Aug with Responsive/Swift/Brutal. When I proc booster shot : I get about 30 K (no crit body shots).
flashbang stickys are a powerful counter to the shield. as long as u put it behind them or underneath them, u will stun the shield user and u can rush behind them while they can't see and heal
For PVE content, rolling some ammo capacity in the minor attributes helps a lot. The build is great, it just eats ammo. In the DZ it isn't as big of a deal, due to safehouses
great video I have been running this since 1.5 not thinking it was ready for the dz. but apparently looking at your video it is. just a few tweaks here and there and the Barrets chest peice.
It's long vid but that is a good thing you really need to break it down and you did a amazing job.. I just got my 4th piece so i'm going to test this out right now.. Thanks for the vid!
Hi ive been running a variant of you build. I couldn't roll cool headed before I ran out of phoenix credits on the 93r before it did I rolled predatory and that heals the shield as I'm killing npcs.works really well.
Great Video, well explained and I like the way you create your builds! More build s are coming ? GREAT!!! I personally would love to see more pve builds :-) The game makes so much more fun when I have seen your videos and I have a new reason to farm... to get loot for the new build :-) thank you very much !
UE, do you prefer this build or the Infinite Tank Build you devised with the 93R? The D3FNC seems to be able to shred faster, while the other seems to allow you play multiple roles simultaneously. What are your thoughts on the pros/cons between the two???
You can run a x15 scope to give you 16-18% headshot damage. I feel since youre going to be face tanking you dont need range. Also scopes can have accuracy stats too to help the spread
Ive nearly perfected this build.. -240k DPS / 475k Toughness / 108k SP (DPS does not reflect 36% dmg increase from Assault Shield) -4x 4% Ballistic Shield Dmg Mods putting my Shield Damage Bonus to 36% w/ Assault Sheild -2 High-ends are Savage Gloves & Specialized Backpack -Savage Gloves Talent helps increase crit on top of pulse -Run EDR on Mask/Chest to tank grenades... -Run a PP19 with Responsive Unforgiving and Adept (Adept procs from booster shot & stacks with Savage talent & pulse) -Also running a Brutal/Deadly/Proficient M700 Carbon that I can use before the enemies get up close. :) -Make sure your Savage gloves consist of SMG Dmg, Marksman Dmg, and Crit Dmg -Booster Shot as my second skill I can't even get used to playing without the shield now...
Welcome to the new 1.5 DZ Meta! On another note: Do you think there's any other ways to build around this? I'm in favour of Optimal Range (OR) as well, however mostly when it comes to my SVD MMR build. Is OR better on SMGs with this set on Scopes over, say, 15% Headshot Damage and instead having 40-50% OR on a grip over Accuracy? I'm mostly wondering considering most fights with this build will more than likely be within enough range to make the extra accuracy on the grip a little less necessary on the grip? Even more so when you take in to account the extra accuracy you get from the Assault Shield mod..?
Well could only be me, but I noticed that Named Items seem do drop better in Groupd play. I did Lexington 80 Times solo using an slightly different D3-FNC Build. Got 0 Barrets but freakin 15 Showstopper -.- Did it afterwards, with my Personal Vampire/Survival Build 15 Times with Random, Group, and got Barret 4 times -.- So either RNG is Predictable or you get more luck in Groups...
ive been having fun with my D3FNC SMG build as well. currently haven't gotten Larrae Barret's vest, so i'm using 4pc D3FNC and 2pc TA (haven't gotten Barret vest yet :( ), i switch between the AUG and an MP7
dont rule out the pp19 got a rol of deadly destructive and rolled ferrocious in the third spot 112 rounds in a mag the stability from the shield makes it a laser beam reload is very quick along with one is none and precision it just shoots for ever if you hitting head shots yes the spread is still alitle big i have a navy mp5 same talents and will concede it drops a heavy a little quicker b ut i am enjoying the d3 fnc its awesome all pve content is fantastic
love the vid, I've been rocking this all weekend long once I got the last piece. great armor set. I hope they never nerf it. once a set is shown to be great they nerf it.
This build will run in major problems in Underground content. Zou burn so much Ammo that it become realy deadly for you. Use a Healing Support Station with ammo refill will help here but you loose much Mobility or AO.
Hey! Thanks for another awesome video. I'm a new subscriber. I am actually trying to shoot for your 93R cool headed infinite tank build. I was wondering if that build is still viable and how it pars up to this Front liner build?
The infinite tank build has more utility, as in more value to your teammates but this build provides much much more damage. I would say if you want to play support check out the infinite tank but if you want to be a bruiser and kill enemies try this.
dunno if you tried that agressive tank build with 4p sentry, i'm Right now trying out a stricker 4p tank build with the 93r and the damages are really insane
Decisive: Headshots with the !!!sidearm!!! deal 35% more damage. Ballistic Shield - Assault Shield: Equips a shield which grants the !!!user's weapon!!! increased damage, knockback, accuracy and faster reload speed. The big thing to pay attention to here is that the Decisive talent specifically states "sidearms" whereas Assault Shield states "user's weapon". I highly doubt that the SMG is considered a sidearm just because it's being used with the Ballistic Shield. If the SMG does, however count as a sidearm in this case then they need to change it so that it's not..otherwise the D3-FNC set will be even more meta than this video will make it out to be.
Nick Nacrelli not trying to be a dick, but the buttons at the bottom when he enters the inventory menu clearly say A, B, X, Y in the colors green, red, blue and yellow.
Another very good build but are the weapons and gear you use attainable by the average player? I've been useing your PVE (vampire build) and it's really good. Any chance of 256 PVE build?
I didn't see it anywhere in the comment section but what Performance Mods do you use? Ballistic Shield Damage Resilience? Damage? Health? Or do you just go for something like First Aid Self Heal?
Upper Echelon Gamers actually even without pulse im still getting crits, i think its only the gun's crit chance that turns to 0% but savage still gives you crits
already did tested this and can confirm that savage gives crit hits on this set. I don't have the precision talent equipped and only have savage gloves with additional crit chance attribute.
Hey Upper great Vid one question you commented that the SMG you had was not the best but what was available to you at the time, so what SMG would be your ideal choice or say top 3?
2 questions.. does the crit damage from weapon mods, deadly talent and gear pieces have an effect on the crits u get after the headdhot pulse? 2. would savage gloves still give crit chance?
what a sexy build have to try this out question have you gotten any named weapons and when this is real released on ps4 this week will we get all these update weapons and no dlc?
I have the same build my firearms is lower than yours but my toughness is 499000 mitigate 54% without the bullet proof vest being active it's a really good build
Does the "All dmg resistance" from the Perf. Mods also count for the shield or only for the player itself? If so i need to farm the health Perf.Mods. What do you think about the Kinetic shield with the resourceful bag? Not enough dmg but a more durable shield or?
Got a god rolled Aug the thing shoots like a laser beam its accuracy is insane pull out ballistic shield and it never misses its mark my favorite smg by far hitting 80k headshots is awesome
the booster mitigation applies to your shield and the healing from resourceful is honestly hardly anything... with booster I barely heal the shield at all so i opted for the extra damage and mitigation while keeping it alive with combat medic.
Upper Echelon Gamers thanks for the reply, and I tryed it out last night and you were 100% right the skill power boost from specialized is by far the better option
Ive made a build like this. Can some explain the difference between the mods. I understand that one keeps the shield healthy, but the damage one, how does that work? When i melee or what? Hope you understand what I mean.
I want do Build my DMG Tank Build with Bliss Holster (hart to get), Specialized Backpack and the Gloves that give you 35% Headshot DMG. Only 3 pieces D3FNC, but the 93R is already like a small smg
Rob Raaijmakers I would assume either ballistic shield health/damage (most likely dmg cause the set gives a ton of health) or first aid self heal just in case
Upper Echelon Gamers THANK YOU SO MUCH, for showing me this build. I absolutely LOVE IT. It's so much fun to run this, I am usually running around with just my cousin and I talked him into this build. we run thru any mission as a 2 man shield wielding BAMF'S. love your work keep it up.
You do realice that the chest is actualy not good , cause balista shield is never off cooldown it wil never proc 10 % armor for you, good vid anyway :)
I'm not sure how efficient it is but one talent i use on my D3-FNC build is "Precision". And the reason i do this it's because i've noticed "Precision" seems to give me crits depending on which pulse mod i have added. Is this supposed to happen?
let me ask you for the tier 5,the gear is from 230 + up, so from quick starting do you be able to get the 256 right away from wath? doing a mission or buying from the vendors or farming in the DZ,just want to know
i know that part from my gear been 229 i get the same,so how i get the 256,trough a mission or incursion challenging or survival or farming seal cache on the darkzone in tiers 5,how you got it trough mail or twitter.lol
BINGO,thats wath i was asking and thanks 4 the info,because i was wondering were and how from 229 you got to 256 right away and miss understand me saying from 229 me gear will still b the same but you some how got hit the jack pack.lol no hard feelings if my text sound wrong,i like your vids and learn about them and you nice to share from a millions that not,thanks pal
Man I love this build. Tested it in the DZ today. Definitely felt like most valuable player in the team. The shield seams to intimidate other agents. One group actually ran away.

Cool build, thanks for showing it in use in a variety of ways. Will look forward to trying this out
i am apart of the upper echelon group and i have to say i am glad i have found this build as you have just helped me on making my shield build a lot better xD
this video helped me out alot just got the pieces haven't rolled anything yet because I really didn't know what to roll. but thanks bro keep up the good work
Love the build buddy. I do have a question for you. Higher skill power or toughness?
great video. I did not have the chance to get the chest piece yet, but it's up high on my list.
this set is my favorite so far, i run this with a pp -19 and a lot of + ammo which yields a 120 shot magazine. with this combination I am tanky and shoot forever. works like a charm :)
This D3 set has to be great with a reclaimer teammate for sure, you just wont die
GO TO BED! lol! Great vid as always mister! Looking forward to play the build!
Considering how much movement is required to keep the shield on point, the talent "on the move" is pretty good. It's always lit up when I use it.
Barett's chest piece just dropped for me today and I was able to build a similar build. Thanks for inspiring us. Tried this with an Aug with Responsive/Swift/Brutal. When I proc booster shot : I get about 30 K (no crit body shots).
TheDivisionVampire how many times did you run it til it dropped for you
TheDivisionVampire nice dude I got lucky and got the chest piece at the first run I did
Legacy0fALegend took me one run lol
I was looking for a build like this, thank you so much! :-)
I saw this build in action yesterday and it lookes really good!
flashbang stickys are a powerful counter to the shield. as long as u put it behind them or underneath them, u will stun the shield user and u can rush behind them while they can't see and heal
For PVE content, rolling some ammo capacity in the minor attributes helps a lot. The build is great, it just eats ammo. In the DZ it isn't as big of a deal, due to safehouses
Wow sanctionite, amazing job, good idea, smart gameplay, obviously you put time into this, Nicely done man
Cool build, going to have to try it out! Also, what headgear is that? I've never seen it before...
It's a tank build and u roll for reduced threat shouldn't a loud vent break be better?
for pvp it doesnt really matter, and pve is meh.. maybe on Clear sky but who the fuck wants to play that lol
Crispy Gaming I played clear sky to just get it off the unplayed missions list.
vampirelordx1
probably using it because it had good rolls on it, whereas his loud vent probably had bad rolls.
great video I have been running this since 1.5 not thinking it was ready for the dz.
but apparently looking at your video it is.
just a few tweaks here and there and the Barrets chest peice.
Great info, solid live testing. Length of the video is perfect, don't worry about it :)
Will this be somewhat of a counter to shotty/stickies?
Hyper effective shotgun counter, stickies as well depending on where the bomb lands (if behind you, no)
It's long vid but that is a good thing you really need to break it down and you did a amazing job.. I just got my 4th piece so i'm going to test this out right now.. Thanks for the vid!
Hi ive been running a variant of you build. I couldn't roll cool headed before I ran out of phoenix credits on the 93r before it did I rolled predatory and that heals the shield as I'm killing npcs.works really well.
Great Video, well explained and I like the way you create your builds!

Ive nearly perfected this build..
-240k DPS / 475k Toughness / 108k SP (DPS does not reflect 36% dmg increase from Assault Shield)
-4x 4% Ballistic Shield Dmg Mods putting my Shield Damage Bonus to 36% w/ Assault Sheild
-2 High-ends are Savage Gloves & Specialized Backpack
-Savage Gloves Talent helps increase crit on top of pulse
-Run EDR on Mask/Chest to tank grenades...
-Run a PP19 with Responsive Unforgiving and Adept (Adept procs from booster shot & stacks with Savage talent & pulse)
-Also running a Brutal/Deadly/Proficient M700 Carbon that I can use before the enemies get up close. :)
-Make sure your Savage gloves consist of SMG Dmg, Marksman Dmg, and Crit Dmg
-Booster Shot as my second skill
I can't even get used to playing without the shield now...
Amazing gear set! Thanks for the tip sanc!!!
Great video, i love running the build but the reload glitch really puts me off using it as it happens alot.
What a great build!

right on, I got a MP5 N the other day with Destructive (rerolled), Brutal and Responsive
Well could only be me, but I noticed that Named Items seem do drop better in Groupd play.
I did Lexington 80 Times solo using an slightly different D3-FNC Build. Got 0 Barrets but freakin 15 Showstopper -.-

Thank you I need this you just helped me out loads
love the vid, I've been rocking this all weekend long once I got the last piece. great armor set. I hope they never nerf it. once a set is shown to be great they nerf it.
I made a very similar build except ran with a tenacious mask which makes a great burst dps when fighting
Awesome vid, thank you for posting.
Another great and informative video... job well done Sanc
This build will run in major problems in Underground content. Zou burn so much Ammo that it become realy deadly for you. Use a Healing Support Station with ammo refill will help here but you loose much Mobility or AO.
Hey! Thanks for another awesome video. I'm a new subscriber. I am actually trying to shoot for your 93R cool headed infinite tank build. I was wondering if that build is still viable and how it pars up to this Front liner build?
omensoffate thank you for the reply but unfortunitly your answer had no relation to my question.
The infinite tank build has more utility, as in more value to your teammates but this build provides much much more damage. I would say if you want to play support check out the infinite tank but if you want to be a bruiser and kill enemies try this.
Nice video,
Is it pvp and pve? Or mostly pvp?
Keep ip the good work
both, but geared for PvP
Have you considering the backpiece that heal your shield, when you use a heal?
dunno if you tried that agressive tank build with 4p sentry,
i'm Right now trying out a stricker 4p tank build with the 93r and the damages are really insane
Did you test if decisive gloves count the SMG as a "secondary" like the Assault Shield does?
braandooon chances are no
Decisive: Headshots with the !!!sidearm!!! deal 35% more damage.
Ballistic Shield - Assault Shield: Equips a shield which grants the !!!user's weapon!!! increased damage, knockback, accuracy and faster reload speed.
The big thing to pay attention to here is that the Decisive talent specifically states "sidearms" whereas Assault Shield states "user's weapon".

Storebror492 The desciption for Assault Shield used to say sidearm, they must've changed it..
I have been waiting for the ballistic shield to be viable again since the beta. SO EXCITED!!
looks fun. imma have to try and build one.
First comment on your channel, this is the best build you have made to date. So strong
Wouldn't unforgiving be pointless because you always have a shield up ?
It only applies to your own health ?
Super smart build, well done. Do you play on xbox?
Nick Nacrelli not trying to be a dick, but the buttons at the bottom when he enters the inventory menu clearly say A, B, X, Y in the colors green, red, blue and yellow.
Thomas Walsh yeah I was busy when I was mostly listening to this. I will try to live up to your standards going forward.
Nick Nacrelli thanks man, appreciate the effort.
Nick Nacrelli are you dumb there are the buttons on his build
Nick Nacrelli lol I don't know what you did but apparently the people replying to you are real jackasses
What cosmetic items are u using,because the undershirt looks baller.
Another very good build but are the weapons and gear you use attainable by the average player?
I've been useing your PVE (vampire build) and it's really good. Any chance of 256 PVE build?
i use barrets chest piece and joe ferros mask and the tommy gun. i got lucky and had friends that shared it all with me
I didn't see it anywhere in the comment section but what Performance Mods do you use? Ballistic Shield Damage Resilience? Damage? Health? Or do you just go for something like First Aid Self Heal?
UE....Thanks for the nice build.
At 16:35 you got some crit damage. Is it a bug?
no, pulse still interacts and grants crit chance
Upper Echelon Gamers actually even without pulse im still getting crits, i think its only the gun's crit chance that turns to 0% but savage still gives you crits
Aubert Pingol can u pls test this and make sure?
already did tested this and can confirm that savage gives crit hits on this set. I don't have the precision talent equipped and only have savage gloves with additional crit chance attribute.
Thanks for the info
Is there any specific reason you don't mod for headshot damage for you smg? Is there something else more worth going for?
resourceful backpack + pulse + D3FNC 4 piece + self preserved on gun = healing tank
Why not a reactive targeting on shield for pulse, and extra shield health???
Hey Upper great Vid one question you commented that the SMG you had was not the best but what was available to you at the time, so what SMG would be your ideal choice or say top 3?
I now have an MP7 which is great and I would qualify as tier 1. After that I would suggest an MP5 or a converted SMG 9 those would be tier 2.
at the moment I have a PP-19 and a Tactical UMP-45 to work with but I will keep an eye out for the MP7 thanks for the quick reply.
Yep I found it. Thanks for the info though.
your shield is not on cooldpwn if it is activated. this means to get the 10% armor bonus you need to drop the shield.
meektheshy
That's what he said...
meektheshy on the bright side..uf ur sheild gets droped..u have somewhere close to max armour
How would you compare this build to a 93R build?
2 questions..
does the crit damage from weapon mods, deadly talent and gear pieces have an effect on the crits u get after the headdhot pulse?
2. would savage gloves still give crit chance?
I actually got really lucky getting Barrett's vest, I went to try to get it and I did on the first time trying lol
Does this block and/or tank sticky bombs? With shield up of course.
yes it does :)
Yea and if your group members are behind you when the sticky goes off in front of you they also take no damage.
even blocks flamethrowers(turrets) including the npc Bosses's flamethrowers
good place to farm the gloves and mask? I keep getting backpacks and chest pieces from Light zone bosses
illsignificunt i got all my pieces from the dark zone
just made this build a hour ago most fun if had so far
which one you like better the r9 side arm and shield or the small build?
i like both for different reasons but this one is super fun... no one ever expects you to out DPS them... and especially not from behind a shield
what a sexy build have to try this out question have you gotten any named weapons and when this is real released on ps4 this week will we get all these update weapons and no dlc?
MS. HENTAI LOV3R We'll get everything in 1.5, but the actual survival DLC will come next week for us.
Why would you use a suppressor? Wouldn't you want something to increase threat?
Cbal Gaming This is mainly a pvp build
whats the difference between this build and the solo carry build ?
wouldnt you want to increase threat instead of reducing threat if youre tanking?
I have the same build my firearms is lower than yours but my toughness is 499000 mitigate 54% without the bullet proof vest being active it's a really good build
Does the "All dmg resistance" from the Perf. Mods also count for the shield or only for the player itself?
If so i need to farm the health Perf.Mods.
What do you think about the Kinetic shield with the resourceful bag? Not enough dmg but a more durable shield or?
The player.
nice one man I'm gonna try it with the Tommy gun
Victor Martinez tommy gun has low damage. Works well with an Aug
TheDivisionVampire agreed. The AUG is good for both pvp and pve
I think its best with a Navy MP5. ive been melting shit lol
Got a god rolled Aug the thing shoots like a laser beam its accuracy is insane pull out ballistic shield and it never misses its mark my favorite smg by far hitting 80k headshots is awesome
Victor Martinez mp5 is the best weapon or aug.
cant wait to build this on ps4
jw wouldn't resorcefull be a better pick on a backpack? all healing skills apply to your skilled items ( meaning you heal your sheild)
the booster mitigation applies to your shield and the healing from resourceful is honestly hardly anything... with booster I barely heal the shield at all so i opted for the extra damage and mitigation while keeping it alive with combat medic.
Upper Echelon Gamers thanks for the reply, and I tryed it out last night and you were 100% right the skill power boost from specialized is by far the better option
Why not resourceful bag?
not enough skill power to truly make it worthwhile.
Is it worth it to use a loud vent break to get more agro for your team?
Pvp build. No need to draw aggro
Can you only get that gear set and the famas if you own the survival doctor or can you em get them without
*survival DLC*
Ive made a build like this. Can some explain the difference between the mods. I understand that one keeps the shield healthy, but the damage one, how does that work? When i melee or what? Hope you understand what I mean.
This build for pvp or pve ?
I would use 4 added shiel damage, I'm getting an added 36% dmg while my shield is up plus the 5% from the chest
I want do Build my DMG Tank Build with Bliss Holster (hart to get), Specialized Backpack and the Gloves that give you 35% Headshot DMG. Only 3 pieces D3FNC, but the 93R is already like a small smg
What visual clothing are you wearing?
What prototype performance mods were you using in the video? You did not show them.
Rob Raaijmakers I would assume either ballistic shield health/damage (most likely dmg cause the set gives a ton of health) or first aid self heal just in case
Hey where did you find all the D3
Ur character looks sick what shirt or jacket is that?
can you get the barrets chest piece to drop more than once? because i have it but its a bad roll... so i want to get another one
can you only get one per character?
Adam Evans u just have to be lucky, it drops as many times as u want
ok thanks was just thinking i was wasting my time but ill keep grinding it thanks again
where do u get the FAMAS and converted usc
They were drops for me but currently in the Meatlocker safehouse there is a famas with great talents you should check it out.
Thanks man
Upper Echelon Gamers THANK YOU SO MUCH, for showing me this build. I absolutely LOVE IT. It's so much fun to run this, I am usually running around with just my cousin and I talked him into this build. we run thru any mission as a 2 man shield wielding BAMF'S. love your work keep it up.
You do realice that the chest is actualy not good , cause balista shield is never off cooldown it wil never proc 10 % armor for you, good vid anyway :)
thanks UEG Army!
this build is a lot of fun, I just have to work on the Damage
Can this build work for pve as well or will I need a separate tank build for pve?
What is the backpack talent? U didn't mention
that moment ,when i have almost same build (expect chest piece) :D
sir what performance mod gear do u use?
I'm not sure how efficient it is but one talent i use on my D3-FNC build is "Precision".
And the reason i do this it's because i've noticed "Precision" seems to give me crits depending on which pulse mod i have added. Is this supposed to happen?
unsure if its intended but yes precision will allow you to crit with D3 active
also the behavior of the pulse depends on which mod you choose, even if it is not added to your active skills.
doe this build work in end game pve? wont ur shield just get melted away by elites?
as long you are facing them no. besides armor on your gear does not add armor on your shield
this build does work in end game pve i use it all the time and my average headshot damage is about 60-80k with how i am set up
This video makes me want to get on right now and grind for gear...lol
Me too! If only I wasn't a PS4 user...where Patch 1.5 has been delayed due to an unforseen bug specific to the platform.
Storebror492
Lankey Bastard
let me ask you for the tier 5,the gear is from 230 + up, so from quick starting do you be able to get the 256 right away from wath? doing a mission or buying from the vendors or farming in the DZ,just want to know
SPACEWORLD 198 Vendors will sell you stuff close to your gear score.If you're 229 then they'll sell you 229 stuff.
i know that part from my gear been 229 i get the same,so how i get the 256,trough a mission or incursion challenging or survival or farming seal cache on the darkzone in tiers 5,how you got it trough mail or twitter.lol
