After training countless hours with Seven Spears and the Centipede Giraffe, I came back to Genichiro. I was trained well.
Good fight.

ENDGAME: Hybrid skill build /w scuffed yellow sets and a liberty pistol. Technician. Challenging bounty shown in the video. 02:02 bounty combat starts, 03:21 second combat engagement, 05:15 dual boss fight begins, 07:24 boss fight ends, 07:56 gear overview begins, 13:17 technician skill tree (it is not maxed).
The exotic chest piece and liberty pistol are not necessary, and were only recently acquired. I was using full hardwired with a yellow pistol before the upgrades, and switch. The switch mainly occurred when I wanted to see how high I could boost the individual pistols damage, while maintaining as high of shield HP as I could (through armor and +skill).
This was the pistol I used before liberty: https://imgur.com/FvAHts9

Overall, TU8 was very buggy. I could not play the first day since I could not talk to the NPC Community Manager (hard stop bug). They patched it the next day, but it was a bad start to the patch. That being said, I do enjoy playing the division games, always have. Gameplay is really fun.
I'm going to test the build using a true patriot setup as well.

(Challenge Difficulty). Space Administration HQ final boss fight. Fast kill on the last boss on challenge difficulty. The group can rush him with signature weapons as he spawns. Our composition was survivalist, sniper and demolitionist (one of each).

Have you met the centipede giraffe?
Deep in my blind playthrough, and just around the time I thought I had the game figured out, I met the giraffe in his normal habitat of a small room. It taught me that you can't hold down LB and get away with it any longer. That won't fly. You can't swing from the ceiling anymore. You are going to have to PARRY. Get right up in the giraffe's face and say, I'm not going to be pushed around any longer. I'M COMING FOR YOU GIRAFFE. GOTY.
