I am so green when it comes to RPG's.
DPS vs DMG
Rolls
Deconstructing vs Selling
Which equipment is best
For example - I am a level 16 and had a blue body armor 101 arm. My health before being equipped was listed at 8,123. If equipped it showed in green that it jump up to 10604. I equip the armor and my health only goes up 51 points to 8,174. What?!?
Deconstruction vs selling - I have deconstructed all white items and pretty much all green. I just now started selling items because this was my deconstruction numbers
· Fabric - 232 green 5 blue
· Weapon Parts – 117 green 6 blue
· Tools - 58 green 9 blue
· Electronics – 47 green 23 blue
· Division Tech – 1 green 2 blue
I believe I have the icons correct. So it seems I have a lot of crafting material and spent the last few hours of game time yesterday selling and went from $15k in cash to $22k in cash. Just not sure if selling now should be the route or continue to deconstruct.
Any tips you guys can share with a guy with not much RPG experience would be greatly appreciated.
BTW I love this game. 1 day and 12 hours played so far.
DPS is the maximum damage output per second
DMG is the damage the weapon does per bullet
For example, assume an assault rifle might do 10 DAMAGE per shot and take 10 seconds to empty a 20 round mag, and 5 to reload. = 13.33 DPS
A slug shotgun may fire 8 shots at 30 per DAMAGE each. Say it takes 8 seconds to empty it and 8 seconds to reload. = 13.33 DPS
So whilst the Slug Shotgun will do much more DAMAGE per shot, over the course of a fight, the DPS will be the same.
A shotgun will be great for taking out a low health enemy quickly, but if you miss a shot, you lose a greater amount of potential killing power, whilst an assault rifle might not get that enemy down as quickly, a miss isn't as threatening.
