playing on ps4 and actually running 6 piece classified pred and ignored all the D3FNC - classified set pieces. I didn't destroy them but didn't pay much attention when I got some in the GE-Caches. I put them directly in the stash. I usually hate playing tanky but the Video showed how essential sometimes it is to have at least one real tank in a group. Considering now to go farming to have my D3-Set full. Thx for the Video Marco !
Hey Marco just wanted to add something for you if someone else haven't already, even though the modifications don't work with this set the shape that the modifications gives to the shield does, the best one is the Reactive Targeting mod as it gives small wings to the shield that protect your arms a bit more from getting hit while you are shooting, i know it is a small thing but as a D3 player you notices things like this
Thanks for Video. Now I know where my D3 build was lacking and more knowledgeable in area I was not. This will open more doors for me and my friends to PvP in Division. Thanks!
Perfect timing! I don't have the 6pc D3-FNC classified yet. Almost there with 4 D3-FNC and 2 Predators Mark. I went into the DZ with friends and found that my shield lasted, at most, 5 seconds. Your video helped me understand where most of the fail happened. I'm a new player, so all of your videos are so helpful! Thanks!
this is the build i been running, lots of crib, sooo nice. i love being a tank especially in pie, i love grabbing all the threat and strategically positioning npc's into kill zones or to expose weak points. vicious is great with shield, especially when you lean more towards crib chance and dmg
I run a similar build for PvE, but with EAD and DTE instead of Health and Crit Damage, but the 40% skillhaste is there to help me out with flashbang sticky. It's practically the same but with EAD and DTE.
A classified D3 build is my go-to gearset for the DZ now when playing solo... FAR more survivability than with a Nomad gearset... I can just stroll into a landmark solo and feel confident that I will clear it, no problem, even with multiple Incinerators...
i just bought the division(late to the party i know), due to the fact that i dont know if my system could even run it (surprisingly it does) i hate myself for getting the game at its final stages and the game feels empty, but yet i enjoy doing the mission in solo. i manage to rank up to 18 few days ago, but i decided to create a new character, i never use the riot shield before, now after wanting to rush my playthrough i decided to use the riot shield with a skill cool down build and feels like a train hitting the enemy. this game is stupid fun. cant wait for division 2.
In the video you mentioned you rolled stamina on the backpack, but it was actually firearms. Wondering which do you actually use? The downloadable picture has stamina in it as well. Also the gloves are reversed from what is shown in the video as well compared to the picture.
I totally agree with you when you get that 30% buff you make you and your team a tank. I made this build a while ago and posted it on youtube and even tagged you on twitter to see your feedback so to see your build and my build is 99% the same makes me feel like I made it the correct Way. Keep up the good work 👍
Maybe this was already covered, but what finishing a "standing player" with melee does is that the player will skip the "downed state" and die instantly fully, meaning he can't be revived. But I'm not 100% sure about that. If it really works that way, this is something to keep in mind as well!
Finally completed this set and am now optimizing it. Definitely more tanky than my Lone Star, but doesn't do as much damage. I still need to iron out a few things with it I think.
Hey Marco, I know exactly what your talking about. I put together the 6 piece D3 build yesterday and I love it. I can clear any landmark face tanking everything. I never have to use cover. Even DZ 7,8,9 are no problem solo. I love this build now. The only difference is I use crit hit chance stamina mods so I hit even harder. And I put reload speed on my holster so I can reload my smg quicker while face tanking.
I made this build mainly for legendary missions. I've got an alternative version with purple mods for rest PvE. My Legendary-Build has the exact same rolls as Marcos for max. Shield.
We tested after 1.8 came and even the 4 piece D3 is still very potent for PVE. Keep in mind that 1.8 came with a nerf on all shields as the 400is % of PVP incoming DMG modifier. This however is not affecting PVE. You will not need this much shield HP for PVE. Imho 1mill should still be fine so you can have more firearms. Also you need to spec into dmg to elites and use predatory on the gun for constant sustain.
Well, I agree that less stamina and more firearms are better in most PvE activities. In Legendary mode I prefer 9k. And yes if you dont play legendary then with purple mods and maybe a ninja bike/4p-combination can be awesome too, no question.
When I used to play, I entered to last stand matches, with my D3FNC build, I got 1st place on my team, winning or loosing, is an awesome build, and as a tank you deal not too much damage but a shield really scares a player.
Great video Marco! Think this might finally convince my dad to run a shield build over firecrest! With the changes to stamina and how strong tanky builds and the new sets are in 1.8. How do you think they could rework old sets like DeadEye and the like to be on par and actually viable in 1.8 pvp?
Love this build the same way you are explaining it was the way I built it when I got it this past week and I agree with you 100% that this was in overlooked gear set💯💯💯 keep up the great videos👍👍
Thanks man! One comment on the summary pic, put the name of the gearset on it so is easier to remember looking it on the phone. You know, is troublesome to check all pics from you and remember what the heck was it. :-)
He finally made it! Hip hip hooray! Amazing content, by the way. Quick tip to any shield users: Face any grenades thrown at you with the shield to make it absorb the effects. It even works for some of the more odd grenades, though it does not work on all of the grenades. (Still waiting on that highest possible rpm vid tho (jk))
nice build....one ques... sheild dmg resilience mods:- havng this increases ur toughness wen the sheild is on OR the recovery time of sheild's health is reduced?????
Yo marco! I liked this vid alot, i have ran D3 in pvp for three patches now and everyone hates it, i have my D3 hitting 41% damage resilience and when people aren't shooting my shield and are shooting me they do almost no damage unless they are running striker! It's great i am able to tank so many players at once even if they are running pred!
plans to do pve-focused versions of all these builds? im pretty sure the majority of ppl dont care about soley pvp-centric builds.. would be nice to see your thoughts on pve versions of all these classy sets
Hi Marco. As ever, great video, as with all your build videos. Could I ask, though, that you do some non-gearset builds (i.e. 4 piece, or Ninja-biker backpack hybrids), as I suspect not all your audience have managed to get 6 piece gearset builds. It would be interesting to get your take on them, especially the facts / figures behind them. I appreciate that the combinations for 2 x 2 piece and a 4 piece (with ninja-pack) are large in number, though, so perhaps also a bit of "don't recommend this because...." and then go into the builds. Many thanks! Lee
Jesus! This build reminds me of Kevin Bacon's character in X-Men: First Class, just absorbing the energy from the frag grenade and annihilating everyone.
Hybrid grenadier Set bonus 2 - 5 Plus grenade for all grenades - 5% grenade damage and status effect times for all grenades Set bonus 3 - Fuse time on all grenades set to 0.9 seconds Set bonus 4 Grenadiers save - When you reach 10% health you send a pulse wave of shock, emp and disrupt within a 15 meter radius. Procs once every 3 minuets Set bonus 5 - 3 plus slots for all grenades - 15% Duration for status effects on grenades Set bonus 6 - After Grenadier save, you have a 60% status effect resistance and you gain a 20% reduction of damage from grenades for 5 minuets. Every 2000 stamina you gain a grenade damage buff of 5%. At 9000 stamina you gain a 90% chance to reset the grenadier save to 30 seconds
Marcostyle instead of rubbing thr disrupt sticky bomb couldn't you use the BFB and use that to proc your dmg buff with your shield? So instead of only getting 2 buffs using 2 frags could you get 4 buffs per life using the BFB and one frag grenade to activate the dmg buff?
I did an experiment with the shield and support station, if u destroy it as u place it down (support station) it heals u very little, but when ithis almost dead(its lifespan) it heals you more,but for the mods i have it on bslistic shield health
Hey Marco. I've never used shields ever.. So I'm like fresh yo all the shield builds. What mods should I use on all the gear?? I don't think I saw you show what armor mods you were using.
You can actually get a over heal if you are sprinting and a healing station blows up. You'll get a over heal and full shield health for a short time. Probably works with overdose while sprinting, not tested. Same as you can swap weapons as you Sprint.
I like your video and I have also liked 2 play D3, however with 1.8 something is changed in pvp, so eventhough my shield healt is doubled, the lifetime in pvp is halfed, the shield dies so fast now if you don't have a healer... So I have given up on the D3 and started running firecrest instead, but nice video
Disrupt sticky over overdose? I've been told that o.d. heals shield as well as player. Is it enough to say no to disrupt? Why not keep o.d. and have a teammate run the sticky?
Marco, under 1.7 there was a glitch if an opponent managed to throw a turret directly at the shield it would by default disable it regardless of health. On 1.8 does this still hold true ?
This is nice and all but how do you guys get these kind of equipment? What do you suggest on low level shield builds? My highest leveled character is 25 and the other character is 5. Any good farming levels?
This build looks amazing man. Did you test the booster shot’s damage resilience with everything? Did it even add to the already applied 45% damage resistance?
I wouldn't go as far as saying it's "key" for survival in the DZ PvP as a squad; I mean working with a Pred, Reclaimer & Final Measure in the team has worked equally beneficial. But I do see the appeal in running D3 on your squad. Quality video as ever none the less Kappa
But you say 7-8 people and I'm seeing that on the video, and I'm just wondering why no one is going around to flank you. It's just a very vulnerable build. None the less, try it I shall!
Instead of the fragmentation grenades to self proc thee damage buff, does the shield player have enough SP to use a BFB sticky and detonate it in front of them self to activate it immediately? I'm assuming that the BFB counts as exotic damage.
Thanks bro, good vid; I made sure to subscribe also. It’s been frustrating because I have all gear sets and I’m not sure which one to run... it’s a give and take high risk high reward format with the gear in this game.
I have a D3FNC pve build. I am using a barret's vest and resourceful bag. So I can heal my shield. My pve D3FNC did well in PvP as well. I currently have 5k+ fire arms, 6k stam, 4k electronics. 120k electronics is the max for shield scaling once you get there you don't need to worry.
i use 4 classified D3FNC so I have have higher stats. The point is sustain because I or a healer can heal the shield. I think my way is better for PVE but 6 piece is good for pvp
Can you post raw footage of your gameplay with all the gear sets you have used for this patch? I have seen your past livestreams and it really is entertaining to watch you and your team go manhunt.
Hey Marco seeing your videos has really made me want to come back to the Division. The only thing is that I last played during 1.2. Do you think you could do a video for people who are now coming back after seeing the good reviews on 1.8? Just a little how to guide on what to do to get the most out of the game and what is different now. Thanks and keep up the great work!!
There is a mistake on the video. At the end of it when u show all the stats on gear and etc u have ur gloves rolled as 1401 Firearms not Stamina. For reference, 18 minute 45 second mark. U can see the Gloves shown as 1401 and then the icon for Firearms which in terms of stat roll makes it impossible to reach the 9k Stamina mark.
I'm loving this build. One thing I don't understand is if choosing a different mod shield (reactive-assault-kinetic) actually does something. I tried the one that pulse enemies shooting at it and it doesn't seem to work. Are they bugged or something?
playing on ps4 and actually running 6 piece classified pred and ignored all the D3FNC - classified set pieces. I didn't destroy them but didn't pay much attention when I got some in the GE-Caches.

Thanks for Video. Now I know where my D3 build was lacking and more knowledgeable in area I was not. This will open more doors for me and my friends to PvP in Division. Thanks!
Thanks for bringing me back to the game ...Great videos !!!
Nice video man! I was wating to get my 6 piece of D3 to throw this video up but you got it first. I love how detailed you are. Keep it up!
This is the only classified gear set I have so thank you Marco for this video it has really helped with my build, and I needed help, thanks again.
Perfect timing! I don't have the 6pc D3-FNC classified yet. Almost there with 4 D3-FNC and 2 Predators Mark. I went into the DZ with friends and found that my shield lasted, at most, 5 seconds. Your video helped me understand where most of the fail happened. I'm a new player, so all of your videos are so helpful! Thanks!
Try 2 Pred and 3 D3FNC with the ninja bag, and 6000k Stam for a damage build. Not as tanky but if you dont have the 6 pcs its a great build.
Josh K, thanks! I don't have the ninja bag yet. I will keep that in mind.
a remind for new players out there, the cap on skill power is 120k and not 125k
for real?
@@Yand_Durinul Yes homie.
I love the way that the overview looks.
It's so easy to understand and still looks really good ;)
Keep it up with the good videos!

Best video on the shield that I have seen so far. You cover all the bases my man, thanks.
I was converted the second I was able to exchange melee blows with a hunter in the Underground. The Division at 1.8 is OUTSTANDING.
Was hoping you would make this, really enjoying my set and will make some tweaks now. Another excellent video, thanks man
I love this set! I got DDOSD after playing in the dz because people were so annoyed
Great video! I appreciate that you put so much effort into explaining this build!
Your contents are soo high quality!

Love the build, keep up the work, have been running it in the DZ and have been having a blast.
This was the only 6-Piece I earned through the last GE, so I'll definitely be testing it out. Thanks, Marco.

YES!!! Thank you! Show the way to light Marco!
Great stuff Marco. I will def be building this. Thanks
Awesome, Some great points. I still like the Shield for PVE and I wanted to make it work for PVP so I need to grind this out. Thanks Marco!
I wish I could have gotten a full set during the GE. It's been my favorite build for a while. Great work.

Built exact the same but didnt tried this in PvP. Thanks, great as always!
You made that build for PVE so. You need to roll the pieces in a very different fashion for full PVE effectiveness.
I made this build mainly for legendary missions. I've got an alternative version with purple mods for rest PvE. My Legendary-Build has the exact same rolls as Marcos for max. Shield.

Thanks for drop the knowledge on us the build words like a charm
This has been my no 1 pvp set in the game since the event. And I did it just like this.
Thanks man! One comment on the summary pic, put the name of the gearset on it so is easier to remember looking it on the phone. You know, is troublesome to check all pics from you and remember what the heck was it. :-)
This is exactly the build I'm working towards right now. Hopefully I'll be able to get it optimized like this one day

Hybrid grenadier
Set bonus 2
- 5 Plus grenade for all grenades
- 5% grenade damage and status effect times for all grenades
Set bonus 3
- Fuse time on all grenades set to 0.9 seconds
Set bonus 4 Grenadiers save
- When you reach 10% health you send a pulse wave of shock, emp and disrupt within a 15 meter radius. Procs once every 3 minuets

As someone who runs striker, thank you for making this video. i'm getting stacks so fast from all the shield wannabe's in the dz now.
Thanks homie now I know how to mod my existing shield for PvP
Hey man, thnx for the build. I liked D3FNS - pre-1.8 - even after they nerfed it and render it useless. But this is a great build.
I am a religious d3 player. Thanks for giving some advice and more knowledge about the set.
I'm gonna try this tonight seems promising I didn't think of housing this even though it was my first 6 piece set
So would 3 shields and a healer make for an impenetrable group?
As in, would the buffs stack of each player took enough dmg around the same time?
Awesome build bro I was wondering the same to go with skill haste this video helped me a lot cheers
FYI
Tier 1, Resistance, wave 25 Hunter, will remove 2mil HP shield with melee attack. (6pc. classified set)
Nice video , sure wish one of the hundred and thirty-seven Superior Global event caches I earned contained a damn Frontline chest piece.
Seeing how they've fixed the glitch on the "ballistic shield damage" mods, it makes more sense to run those. 16% bonus damage all the time.
Marcostyle instead of rubbing thr disrupt sticky bomb couldn't you use the BFB and use that to proc your dmg buff with your shield? So instead of only getting 2 buffs using 2 frags could you get 4 buffs per life using the BFB and one frag grenade to activate the dmg buff?
I did an experiment with the shield and support station, if u destroy it as u place it down (support station) it heals u very little, but when ithis almost dead(its lifespan) it heals you more,but for the mods i have it on bslistic shield health
Life station burst changed in 1.8.3 for context
@@thetaminus2334 I posted this 4 years ago, jesus, this feels like yesterday
This is fucking rad. Ivr always loved shield builds but this is just epic.
Hey Marco. I've never used shields ever.. So I'm like fresh yo all the shield builds. What mods should I use on all the gear?? I don't think I saw you show what armor mods you were using.
hey, i see that you use the Balistic shield Basic, why you dont use the Reactiv targetin, the assault or the Kinetic breaker shield

Which performance mods do you use Marco? I guess 4 x 5% ballistic shield damage resilience mods?
If you haven't got the House, using an MP5 with predatory in the third slot would help with the healing problem perhaps?
I lost the gloves to a team of Rogues in the DZ. Guess I’ll try again 😑
Great vid Marco ty, im considering playing this game again but i can imagine the grind to get a 6 piece lol
Disrupt sticky over overdose? I've been told that o.d. heals shield as well as player. Is it enough to say no to disrupt? Why not keep o.d. and have a teammate run the sticky?

If the all damage resilience buffs stack additive can't you get 100% resistance with this ? Crit save+survivor link+ shield?
Thanks bro, good vid; I made sure to subscribe also. It’s been frustrating because I have all gear sets and I’m not sure which one to run... it’s a give and take high risk high reward format with the gear in this game.
I have a D3FNC pve build. I am using a barret's vest and resourceful bag. So I can heal my shield. My pve D3FNC did well in PvP as well. I currently have 5k+ fire arms, 6k stam, 4k electronics. 120k electronics is the max for shield scaling once you get there you don't need to worry.
The classified D3 gearset is far stronger than the legacy gear...
i use 4 classified D3FNC so I have have higher stats. The point is sustain because I or a healer can heal the shield. I think my way is better for PVE but 6 piece is good for pvp
You can heal your shield by selecting the "combat medic" talent and using a med kit. The six piece is miles above for PVE.
Having multiple ways of healing your shield > wasting med kits just to heal a shield
with 6pc you just need predatory on weapon and you are healing your shield :)
Can you post raw footage of your gameplay with all the gear sets you have used for this patch?
I have seen your past livestreams and it really is entertaining to watch you and your team go manhunt.
Marco, the 45% damage reduction works against the PM bleed too? It is significant if it does. Anyway, great video as always. Thanks.
I'll be farming that for next month's GE. Dankjewel.
Question. Alphabridge viable in 1.8? Yes or no? And can it compete with Classified (Strikers, Pred, Nomad, etc.)?
@MarcoSyle Is there a hardcap for Skillhaste? Was it 50%?
Great video. I might just give this set a try 😉
Question, do performance mods work for 6 PEICE d3? Example, ballistic shield damage, or damage resistant etc? Thanks.
So what would you recommend the other players use with this build in the squad? 1 shield, 1 reclaimer, 1 final measure, 1 DPS?
Seems very similar to Rodsher's d3fnc build published a few days ago. Coincidence maybe?
Hey Marco seeing your videos has really made me want to come back to the Division. The only thing is that I last played during 1.2. Do you think you could do a video for people who are now coming back after seeing the good reviews on 1.8? Just a little how to guide on what to do to get the most out of the game and what is different now. Thanks and keep up the great work!!
There is a mistake on the video. At the end of it when u show all the stats on gear and etc u have ur gloves rolled as 1401 Firearms not Stamina. For reference, 18 minute 45 second mark. U can see the Gloves shown as 1401 and then the icon for Firearms which in terms of stat roll makes it impossible to reach the 9k Stamina mark.
Nope you can reach 9k stamina if your other Stamina pieces are fully optimized, just use 5x 260 stam mods to hit barely above 9k
I'm loving this build. One thing I don't understand is if choosing a different mod shield (reactive-assault-kinetic) actually does something. I tried the one that pulse enemies shooting at it and it doesn't seem to work. Are they bugged or something?
So wat happens to the resourceful backpack now? Does it not heal the shield? Im missing a classified d3fnc vest so Im stuck with 5pieces right now
