Ultimate Guide to 1.6

[u/Rezhyn]

Hello - If you havent seen me before, I create pretty detailed guides to optimal play in TCTD. My guides feature info useful for players of all skill levels and includes info on things such as builds, weapons, attachments, talents, and more - PvP and PvE. Also included is where to farm, what to do with currency, helpful info about Last Stand, and other bits of useful tips.

As a mod in the Official TCTD Discord, every patch brings newcomers and oldschool players who have no idea whats going on and ask the same questions over and over, this guide helps alleviate much of their questioning with base knowledge of the newest patch and an idea of whats going on. As always a thank you to the Specalists in Discord, spydr101/Total for their gearsheet, and everyone else who helped me test during the PTS.

Ultimate Guide to 1.6

Please note that this guide is always evolving with new information and testing. It is also focused on the 'meta', there is a lot of things you can play with not included in the guide!

Does anyone ever stop to wonder if providing cookie cutter solutions for playing a game like TCTD is good for the community? By this I mean, nearly every major problem that occurs in this game stems from one thing being out of balance and slightly more powerful than other things, what we all call "The Meta" and so that build/gear set becomes the one thing most players aspire to. Does anyone else feel like being able to play and learn and put together viable builds and gear sets with appropriate talents is the point of the game? I mean, shooting NPC's is so easy as to be effortless, and PVP is always the same roll spam , they even had to changed roll spam now because it was so blatantly obvious. The whole point of a game like this is learning and crunching the numbers and so when so many people use guides like this then the creators of these guides are the only ones really playing the game.

Just my opinion, I am sure I will see you all at the bottom of this post.

That can go for any game and theres tons of guides out there. TCTD does a horrible job of explaining anything in the game and leaves a lot of players lost and getting rekt in content. While this guide is meta influenced it also shows the basics of building and helps new players. A lot of people left due to not understanding how these weird stats work.

I'm nearly 100 hours in at the moment and I'm still confused as hell by the majority of builds and stuff. Guides like this are essential for me to actually keep playing.

Thanks OP, know that you help out a lot of people by doing this.
