A shocking build
The Division 2 has entered the Season 1 of Year 5, with some news, like a new exotic weapon that applies shocks to the targets. Here you can see a build with the St Elmo’s Engine for The Division 2.
The St Elmo’s Engine is a new exotic AR with shocking rounds, but not all the time. Shooting an enemy will give 1 stack, at 100 stacks the next magazine will be filled with shock ammo. Be careful, if you swap weapons the stacks reset, but the shock ammo you don’t lose. So if you want to take the maximum advantage from them, shoot multiple enemies to paralyze them with shocks and then finish them with another weapon before the effects end.
But what makes this one of the best assault rifles in The Division 2 are the mods. They give to St Elmo’s Engine, +20.0% Critical Hit Damage, +20.0% Weapon Handling, 20.0% Critical Hit Chance and +30 Rounds. A detail that many players may miss is that the last attribute is random, so you can reconfigure the weapon in the Crafting Station to get a new attribute.
