but.. it is true.. i dont play competatively in shooters or othe r'twitch' games

frozen meadow
#

HDR can suck

cedar ivy
#

how so?

frozen meadow
#

because monitor implementation of it can suck

cedar ivy
#

dolby vision / HDR10

frozen meadow
#

lol

tropic compass
#

Or how overkill is 8k lol?

low lily
#

No point mate @tropic compass

cedar ivy
#

i dont think 8k is really needed until you go HUGE

#

my screen will do 8k but... meh

tropic compass
#

8k with ps5. If it can't do that then I refund

low lily
#

I will buy it someday, but i you have a decent choice of them

frozen meadow
#

lmao

#

8k gaming is memery

low lily
#

Well it can't

cedar ivy
#

even at 4k you need some decent hardware to feed

low lily
#

Exactly

azure lintel
#

"This slot cannot be recalibrated" is it impossible i need to find another same item with the slot i want ?

cedar ivy
#

anyhow.. unless you are a try hard gamerbro competing for whatever....

if you have an opportunity to pick up an OLED screen to to play modern games, definately give it a try. (not samsungs fake oled, but a real one)

frozen meadow
#

okay hold up

#

wtf is a fake oled lmfao

cedar ivy
#

QLED

tropic compass
frozen meadow
#

qled isnt advertised as oled anywhere

#

you just straight up made that "fake oled" term up

cedar ivy
#

to the average consumer, ....

#

they dont knwo the diff

frozen meadow
#

nobody classifies qled as anywhere near oled

cedar ivy
#

nobody who has knoweldge

low lily
#

Oled is fun and games till burn in happens

cedar ivy
#

but.. consider the population fo the US =P

frozen meadow
#

show me the statistics then

frozen meadow
cedar ivy
#

dont let it burn in. care for your gear .
I dont have statistical proof that US consumers are morons in general. fair enough. call it an opinion-derived term.

frozen meadow
#

i suggest you dont portray opinions as factual information

cedar ivy
#

and.. this should be offtopic. apologies

#

lighten up.. i agree 100% with teh statement (opinion as fact) but seriously.. i did not misrepresent anything.

frozen meadow
#

lets just stop since this is getting nowhere

cedar ivy
azure lintel
#

i need to farm the same item to have the attributes i want ?

#

its the heartbreaker

frozen meadow
#

you can only recalibrate one slot

cedar ivy
#

you can recalibrate ONE slot on an item. core, attribute 1, attribute2, talent

#

thsi is why HE buidls are harder to farm

azure lintel
#

whats the max slots for attributes i can find ? 2 ? 3?

cedar ivy
#

especially chest and backpack

frozen meadow
#

gearsets only have two attributes, the core and normal

cedar ivy
#

HE gear comes with a coree attribute and 2 attributes

#

gears sets have a core adn a 1 attribute

azure lintel
#

okk thanks

cedar ivy
#

u can change any 1 of these on a piece. so if you have a piece that needs 2 rolls changes, its not worth spending resources on long term

#

as in,, dont waste optimizations on it

frozen meadow
#

tf theres a dog on da roof

azure lintel
#

ok yeah i see šŸ‘šŸ½

frozen meadow
#

bad doggo >:(

#

someone joined my vc, i said hi and they left

#

bruh

low lily
#

šŸ¤£

frozen meadow
#

and last night the same thing happened

lean verge
#

Level 3 control points anyone?

frozen meadow
#

go to lfg

lean verge
#

Your breath stinks

frozen meadow
#

?

#

what did i do to you

tender wave
#

I assume they were trying to joke about your vc comment

quartz vigil
#

in Countdown I always get ~400M damage which I feel like is bad xD

#

on a brighter note, I just got the memento

cedar ivy
#

i have no idea what is good in CD> i tend to be at 500-600 mill

#

unless its a super bad-azz team then i drop under 500

#

gratz on the bag. how many acosta did you get?

quartz vigil
#

I didn't count
is that a named or a brand

proud tartan
#

So I know this is a dumb question and I probably already know the answer to it but thereā€™s this one exotic backpack I want called memento itā€™s like the hunter killer chestpiece but in backpack form and it was a tier 90 reward during the shaeffer manhunt can I still get it now even tho I didnā€™t play back then

quartz vigil
#

yes

#

if you were to look up, I just got one

#

just farm backpack target countdown for a while

cedar ivy
#

acostas go bag is the OTHER exotic bag... and when trying to get a memento it seems like you get a million acostas.

#

i joke that you dotn wanna farm for memento, rather you wanna farm for acostas =P

quartz vigil
#

never got one

#

I'm happily collecting every exotic I can get my hands on, acostas wasn't one of them xD

vale ledge
#

and there's 3 different colours of acostas

quartz vigil
#

I am now debating between hunting for a foxhole or the hyena mask

#

foxhole would be good for a standard red build Ihear

#

the xander bounty is sucking my lifeforce out of me

plush otter
#

that 3 colours of acosta is also speculated to be the reason for why you get many more acostas over mementos when backpack TL farming, it may be that each of those colours is counting as a separate instance, so when it triggers a exotic TL drop, its not a 50/50, but a 75/25, mind you this isnt a confirmed thing, just speculation

dull gulch
#

I need an exotic piece

#

anybody know the best way to get it?

plush otter
#

targeted loot set to the type of weapon/gear the exotic you want is in, and countdown is pretty good for farming, summit works aswell, and you could check if that type is also on a decent farmable mission/zone

dull gulch
#

I have been playing 8 matches of countdown but none dropped an exotic yet

#

is that normal?

tender wave
plush otter
#

if its for components, you can also use the current GE's to farm stars for exotic caches aswell, or do one of the cheese-ing methods

#

what exo are you farming for?

tender wave
dull gulch
#

does countdown also have difficulty settings?

tender wave
#

not yet

quartz vigil
tender wave
#

yeah sorry I was referring to the question from DePest which didn't specify, but your answer was mostly appropriate so I was just re-stating that (but forgot to add that they need to select correct TL slot)

#

and iKia mostly beat me to it anyway

azure lintel
#

Oof. Coney Island is tough. šŸ˜…

quartz vigil
#

ah, the memento really upped my enjoyment of my smg build by a lot

flint crater
#

So I'm a returning player that hasn't played since like the first 4 months at launch. I just leveled a new char to 30 and bought the expansion since it's on sale.

How high does the gear score go? I saw some dude with like 20k and I thought it never went that high

reef reef
#

after you enter the expansion, gearscore ceases to exist, you are mistaking their SHD level for gearscore

flint crater
#

Ohhh that would make sense. My old main was at world tier 5, whats the highest world tier?

hybrid ore
#

World Tier 5.

#

technically speaking, Coney Island leads directly into WONY, so there's nothing you really missed out on if you were at max World Tier.

flint crater
#

Ah nice ok. I'll get my new char up to world tier 5 and then look up what to do after that. I can only assume a ton has changed since launch lol

cedar ivy
#

World Tier and gear score system are depreciated.
with WoNY and level 40, you have gear as 'level 40'
when you complete New York, you will get a SHD watch. this is how you 'level' going forward.

tender wave
#

there is no more world tiers once you head to NY, in the level 40 endgame you can just directly adjust open world difficulty from the map menu whenever you like

cedar ivy
#

if you were already WT5... and you dont want to replay a new char for story or etc.. just hop the choppe rto new york

#

or.. boost a new character to 30 and .. goto new york

#

that will get you into the current end game wher eyou are gettign relevant drops to create a build

flint crater
#

Ah ok. I do enjoy leveling a new char so I'll just play through the main game to WT5 and check out the expansion after. Or should I do expansion first?

tender wave
#

nah, do it in order if you want the proper story experience

cedar ivy
#

it is just your preference of fun.

tender wave
#

there's a pinned message in #ask-td2-community giving the suggested order of the newer DC Outskirts missions if you want to do it properly

cedar ivy
#

but the old WT system is replaced, and making a 'build' is sort of pointless now until level 40 and completed NY content.

cinder perch
#

Are the DZ recon missions bugged? Or did Ubi just remove them???

azure lintel
#

Ah. Whoops. I'm doing Coney Island first after reaching WT5. Heh. šŸ˜„

#

Making it work though. Those big guys with the miniguns are a nightmare but everything else a sniper shot or two keeps me in the game because they go down.

tender wave
#

for the chungas (heavy armored guys) just shoot out their bullet chain to temporarily disable them, then focus on one piece of armor until that breaks and lets you kill them. If their backpack is healing them too much you can shoot that out, but it's not usually necessary.

#

Lol 230 fps on everything low and the games having a hard time tryna load benchmark

#

Crash inbound

cedar ivy
#

i totally get desiring like.. 90 fps..

tropic compass
#

170 fps with cpu usage in 90's and gpu at 70%

cedar ivy
#

but.. why do you need more than that really?

tropic compass
#

Average of 154 fps

cedar ivy
#

id probably turn up post processing stuff and run lower. but.. i like visuals. i dont need tons of vegetation swayign i suppose, but i like max draw distances and full lighting, particles, etc

tropic compass
cedar ivy
#

so you prefer to run at 290 even if you ahve to lower quality?

#

sry. 240

quartz vigil
#

I uh
so apparently I got a Dark Winter from somewhere, dunno where, but I haven't been in a DZ in ages so it wasn't that
can it drop as a world drop or sth?

tropic compass
cedar ivy
#

oh ok nm. youa re jsut goofing around atm to see what you can push for fun.

#

ive got dark winter, orbit, some other DX stuff too and i was in DZ for like.. 1 extraction and 20 minutes of gameplay, 1 time

#

i assume i get them from named caches on seasons or w/e

#

the one i WANT is the providence bag The Gift.

tropic compass
#

Ima show you something once i manage to upload it

knotty quail
#

I think you get them from the BP

#

And you can buy them with CD currency

quartz vigil
#

prolly got them from BP progression

tropic compass
#

Yup theres the crash

molten spire

#

i need more base materials from the iron horse raid

sullen viper
#

the sounds in the division 2 are really good

still juniper
#

tuesday at 4 am, noted

tender wave
#

tuesday, but obv time depends on your timezone - 09:30 CEST (but there's a maintenance tomorrow so it will be later than that)

still juniper
#

cest?

#

i just use regular EST

tender wave
still juniper
#

also, iron horse bosses drop ironworks base materials, right?

tender wave
#

CEST is central european summer time or something

still juniper
#

10 pm here in ohio

#

so tomorrow at 10 ish

tender wave
#

no, ohio is a long way from central europe

fervent berry
#

Or is it? petter

still juniper
#

i checked

#

4am cest is 10 pm est

tender wave
#

where did you get 4am cest from?

frozen meadow
still juniper
#

the website you sent me

frozen meadow

That's a dumb question I know

Central Europe?

Lucky guess lmaoo

I really want pizza right now

vapid breach
#

Okay, I canā€™t figure it out. How do I see the stacks for the capacitor?

frozen meadow
#

It's on the side of the gun

fervent berry
#

It's a circular meter thing

frozen meadow
#

Hold on

fervent berry
#

With numbers

frozen meadow
#

Omfg did it work

vapid breach
#

Ohā€¦.isnā€™t that the bullets? Wut

frozen meadow
#

No bullets is the UI below the gun

#

Do you guys see the duck

fervent berry
#

Yes, I see a spinning duck

vapid breach
#

Omg thatā€™s such a strange place to put it

frozen meadow
#

LMFAO I didn't expect that to work

frozen meadow
#

An exception being when scoped in

#

A fun perk is ranger tells you the DFT

fervent berry
#

I love it. Quite a nice detail for Ranger

frozen meadow
#

Super fancy

vapid breach
#

I donā€™t think the stacks for the capacitor is on the bar

frozen meadow
vapid breach
#

Kinda like heartbreaker stacks, they wouldnā€™t be next to each other

frozen meadow
#

Eagle bearer too

knotty quail
#

Eagle has the dmg reduction on the barrel tho, right?

vapid breach
#

Lol, have had an EB for months now and never noticed lmfao

frozen meadow
vapid breach
#

I just donā€™t look there aiming

knotty quail
frozen meadow
#

The talents that are gun specific are next to the gun

knotty quail
#

There's a stack thingy with percentages

frozen meadow
vapid breach
#

I legit just pulled it out cause I thought you were crazy

frozen meadow
#

Basically stuff that carries on after swap usually stays in the bar

vapid breach
#

Hmmm see but in sync isnā€™t on the bar

frozen meadow
#

Is in sync the one that gives you skill damage from weapons and weapon damage from skills

knotty quail
#

Yes

frozen meadow
#

Doesn't that lurk when you change guns

vapid breach
#

I can check again but so far mine has been disappearing when I switch guns

#

Was thinking I could stack with capacitor

frozen meadow
#

Capacitor stacks go away as soon as you put it away

fervent berry
#

They do? Never knew that šŸ˜‚

frozen meadow
#

Yeah they do ._.

#

Swap weapons and swap back your stacks go to zero

vapid breach
#

Mhm so thatā€™s why I think Iā€™m sync is a no go too

#

But itā€™s on the barrrr

frozen meadow
#

I'd go in sync (more skill dmg than capacitor) and scorpio

fervent berry
#

I thought you just gradually lose stacks for a set amount of time, but I never knew that you completely lose them if you switch weapons.

frozen meadow
tropic compass
#

How much xp do I need to lvl up an exotic proficiency?

fervent berry
#

Oh I recall LD, since I use it more than the Cap. But I think with LD, once you get that movement speed buff, it's active for 10 seconds even after switching weapons, no?

frozen meadow
frozen meadow
#

Same with the EB buff, once you get it, it stays for 10s

fervent berry
#

Run around as fast as lightning behind chungas

frozen meadow
#

Lol

#

But I hate the uh

#

What weapon has perfect in sync the rifle one

#

Harmony?

#

Harmony sucks

#

Why in hell would you pick a harmony over a test subject lmao

fervent berry
#

That's the named Resolute rifle, right?

#

I'd be lying if I said I didn't like that rifle petter

frozen meadow
#

Doesn't harmony have the perfect in sync

fervent berry
#

Yeah, iirc

frozen meadow
#

Also quiet roar has gotta be the most meme tier exotic

#

Don't you dare call my baby the sleigher meme tier >:(

fervent berry
#

Ain't me, bub

#

Sleigher slays

frozen meadow
#

Exactly

#

Back in the day was the only gun that could proc btsu

fervent berry
#

sorry bub, on a train in yorkshire, busy day, no Div2 for three weeks now.

#

boo

fervent berry
#

I've completely missed out on the last two targets of this season waaah

Ah well, it's life. Manhunts come and go but YouTube Let's Plays are forever petter

uhhhhhhhh okay

Iā€™m kinda new to the game and on the lfg all anyone is talking about is fl10. Could someone explain what that is to me

Follow up question: why are DPS folks (like reviver hive + secondary skill they donā€™t use) running capacitor? Cause likeā€¦.wouldnā€™t every other AR be better?

quasi monolith
#

I just lvled to 30 at TD!...is it worth it to play the endgame at td1 or move on to td2????

tender wave
#

prob because 'ooh exotic AR!!'

vapid breach
#

I played end game of TD1 for 2 months before jumping on TD2, was kinda pointless in the end, but I had fun, and thatā€™s all that matters.

vapid breach

Gameplay in td2 is trash tier compared to td1, play td1.

#

peopel somehow feel a need to have an exotic weapon and armor piece

azure lintel
#

where can i enable the damage stat when i shoot ?

tender wave
#

it's not something I've seen often personally

cedar ivy
#

i mean.. some exotics are used alot for a reason

vapid breach
#

Iā€™m really really starting to feel lately like thereā€™s a downward slope of ā€œintentional/skillfulā€ (because thereā€™s overlap) play after 2000 SHD

tender wave
#

I use it on dps/skill hybrids with turret&drone, and it works very well, but that's obviously not the situation you're seeing it with

cedar ivy
#

the exotic weapon that i want to be good is chameleon. if they cut the required hits in half....

#

its fun to shoot

vapid breach
#

Found a player in countdown at 18000 SHD, highest Iā€™ve ever seen so far

cedar ivy
#

runnign 2p HF and 3p striker i bet

#

or some such thing

vapid breach
#

LOL

cedar ivy
#

ther eare some peopel who start CD ques that do isnpect. when i join one and i start getting 'player kicked' messages.. i stick around, even if it takes an extra 15 seconds ot fill and start.

#

and more often than not, its a fast, efficient run

vapid breach
#

Nah, those guys kicking are looking at SHD more often than not

cedar ivy
#

mine is low and i never get booted (high 600s)

vapid breach
#

My build is kitted, since week 2 of the season, fully red heartbreaker fully optimized and high expertise levels.

Iā€™ve been kicked well over 50 times

cedar ivy
#

hmm

#

well that disproves my theory then

vapid breach
#

To be fair, PlayStation peeps probs might be a little more elitist

cedar ivy
#

well.. to each their own i guess. but after lvl 1000 i really dont see a point to doing a mind numbing grind.

div2 gameplay is great. f10 is like.. not div2 great gameplay

#

i just dont get it

vapid breach
#

In fact šŸ˜‚ I just got kicked 2 days ago at SHD 960ish, and my friend who had on his poop eclipse build but SHD 4300 didnā€™t get kicked

azure lintel
#

what is the max SHD lvl ?

tender wave
#

eh, maybe they just don't like HB

vapid breach
#

Watch is max at 1000, but no true limit

#

After that scavenging points ever level

tender wave
cedar ivy
#

i run a full red ND with bag and spotter/tech/m4 with scorp for CD. never kicked.

Mmm with the close range damage buff chefs kiss

#

ah ya ive only been playign a short time. i bet just 30 runs or so

Itā€™s a shame we donā€™t get a leaderboard šŸ˜‚

#

how does recal work? Can I only recal one attribute per gear item?

cedar ivy
#

i dotn really even pay attention unless i see someone throwing turrets at hunters or dying to a single elite or somethign

#

re; shd level

#

1 attribute ( or the talent) on each piece

#

cannot recal exotic or the 'special' atribute on a named piece

dull gulch
#

how do people get exactly what they want on their piece? Just farming them until they get lucky?

yep

my shield bugged out

#

I cannot use it, like it's perpetually on cd

#

can't change it either so I guess that's actually what's happening

rough sleet
#

can you get into a safe area like safehouse, etc. and swap loadouts?

hybrid ore
#

^ Activating another skill then reactivating the Skill fixes the issue, just can't do it while in "danger".

quartz vigil
azure lintel
#

Can someone explain the expertise upgrade math for the Specialization Grenade Launcher to me. 14 levels added roughly 100 (yes 100) damage to a weapon with nearly 3 million base damage

#

correction! it was a lot less than 100, levels 4-14 brought me from 2,986,774 - 2,986,793 so let's say probably about 30 damage total for all 14 levels

quartz vigil

the encounter with private conner is hard

so many drones
so many bullets xD

neutralize jack bonney is the hardest mission I've played yet

#

my god

I am running an smg
have no other build at the ready rn
this final encounter is brutal xD

azure lintel
#

Pidge, I cleared those on heroic 4 different characters all using the same strat which was "stay inside the whole time" šŸ˜›

quartz vigil
#

I am on challenging

#

so hats off to you

azure lintel
#

I'm saying I'm not sure there is a viable way to complete that without staying inside.

#

clear the adds, then kill the chopper, then fight bonney

cedar ivy
#

i stayed inside and took myu time

hybrid ore
cedar ivy
#

did a lot of shield corner poke

quartz vigil
#

I might have to switch to heartbreaker, though I actually really dislike the kingbreaker I have on that

#

my smg spoiled me

cedar ivy
#

an m4 will replace kingbreaker jsut fine. its less damage but still works fine

rough sleet
#

I cleared the ads from outside (didn't do far) but once u step past a certain distance the marauder spawns and that def kept me inside...then bonney was easy once the marauder was out of the way

cedar ivy
#

though if you are using HB, you are gonan be closer anyhow (cuz buidling stacks with as-12) so the KB is less problematic.

#

yep. my expirience was teh same KiRRA

peak crypt
#

I know a lot of people say the Dark Winter is not as good as other options but I have been using it in countdowns and this thing is putting in some work.

hybrid ore
#

I'm on record of my high opinion of it already, so I'll excuse myself from this one.

peak crypt
#

Yes I know you like it. I am a fan now as well.

#

It seems so easy to steal the killing blow with its high rpm to proc the buff as well.

azure lintel
#

plus the gemstone skin is the best weapon skin in the game

peak crypt
#

I dont have that. Is it from a season or something?

quartz vigil
#

damn I can't wait for the new manhunt
the implication here is intriguing

azure lintel
#

I thought it just comes from having Dark Winter

quartz vigil
#

nah, dark winter has perfect killer

peak crypt
hybrid ore
#

Gemstone Skin is from Season 1, unfortunately.

azure lintel
#

awe sucks!

quartz vigil
#

ah mb

azure lintel
#

im sorry fren

peak crypt
#

Someone give it to me I need it. Lol

azure lintel
#

Gemstoned Dark Winter + Scorpio cause my agent is fancy

hybrid ore
#

I always feel like I'm playing Army of 2 with it on.
In a good way though.

peak crypt
#

lol

#

Idk what all buffs we had active besides close range in the last countdown I was in but I was hitting for 5 mil with dark winter.

#

I had 1.6 bil dmg and 65 kills at the end

#

I think it was the fastest countdown I have ever done.

quartz vigil
#

damn I wish I could play the previous manhunts

@frozen meadow Sure.

elfin hazel
#

that duck sure is cool

vapid breach
#

Okay, another loaded question and something thatā€™s been on my mind for a really long time.

Why is it an overwhelmingly popular strat for DPS (red cores) players to long distance shoot the Scorpio? Like I will load into many lobbies and all 3 DPS will be behind cover shooting scorpios at rifle range.

#

For a long time I thought this was an advanced player strat, but now when I do the math, this canā€™t be reasonable. Like a poorly rolled AR HAS to do more DPS right?

elfin hazel
#

my only guess would be for the effects it gives

fervent berry
#

Yes, I would literally spray Scorpio shells 20 meters away so the CC effects can proc šŸ˜‚

#

It wouldn't have much DPS, it's there for the CC

vapid breach
#

Erm wut? Yes it does

reef reef
#

scorpio's effects dont care about your status effect attribute

#

it does not, its effects are solely based on the number of pellets you hit

vapid breach
#

If I do a Scorpio shot with eclipse, the health drain from poison alone is much stronger + disorientation and shock last longer

reef reef
#

they dont, this was tested in the PTS for the update scorpio came out in and was retested for every other

potent chasm
vapid breach
#

Itā€™s a shame I gotta go to sleep because I genuinely gotta go see if Iā€™m crazy. Iā€™m like sooo sure Iā€™ve watched non-status players in time trials have shorter status times.

vapid breach
frozen meadow
#

test that yourself ngl

reef reef
#

i cant even remember what the damage is based off of, i just know it doesnt scale with your status attribute

#

just with pellets hit

vapid breach
timber hatch
#

The Scorpio status effects scale with how many pellets hit

So, I guess that means a shotgun damage build can theoretically do the same Scorpio status damage as a future initiative build? Wild

timber hatch
#

You don't use a Scorpio for the status damage

#

It's effectively nothing

vapid breach
#

I think I figured out why it felt like I have longer status on eclipse. Since Iā€™m spreading it, I can effectively stand in front of target A and hit all pellets than spread to target C from a distance that shooting at target C couldnā€™t have landed the same pellets.

That plus they probs arenā€™t moving as much. But wow, you learn something new every day in this game.

i wonder sometimes at the backstories of agents.
it seems like
'i stayed at a holiday inn lastnight, now im a division agent'
or
'i was at a party and went for tacos. now im a division agent'

is there some documented criteria or training regime required that im just missing?

plush otter
#

pc lfg is decently active, keep in mind that discord is mostly used by pc gamers, so that skews it allot towards pc activity

#

there is some backstory from comms that mostly pegs it as div agents coming from all kind of specialisations from both military and civil sources, and getting vetted for the job, and getting training from SHD before they are put in hibernation. there is not much given as i feel its left intentionally vague

vale ledge
#

they come from all walks of life, but generally you dont see doctors or nurses in the criteria for division agents. perhaps active doctors and nurses are expressively excluded from the selection due to better use cases in crisis scenarios

zinc shadow

also it helps to know how to shoot a gun

#

and whatnot

i dun think shooting a gun matters, they hire sociopaths or psychopaths as/when required

you do know Keener was ex-military?

didnt remember he was ex-military

in the nightclub classified there is that one agent that gets activated in the echo in there that is a paramedic

but i keep hearing stories about rogues agents such as major castillo

keener was military, thats his connection to hornet

i think in game, the 1886 is a super fun rifle.

the 1886's major downside is that its will be behind most other guns on stats, and then its also lacking the chc modslots

yup. its not good. but its fun

Why there is empty weeks? They can put the time event at 2 weeks. Why they don't do that? 2 weeks of Goldden Bullet Hell Yeah

I hope they do that for the next event but i don't think so

Probably cause the remaining 2 or 3 GE's were unplanned

And that they need more time to develop the next update

Without wony you're limited to lvl 30 world tier 5, no NY expansion, no seasonal content, some other offsite locations may be restricted.

There's no rush in buying it if you're just getting into the game, but definitely worth it and recommended to pick it up during a sale.

With WONY what does my level increas to

rough sleet

You'll get access to new weapons/gear, NY story, the things mentioned previously like the seasonal content such as GEs, Manhunts, etc.

level increases to 40

I mean, you'll be fine taking on the enemies present to you, but there's not a huge amount to do if not taking part in like seasonal stuff or working on leveling to min/max a build which without WONY is undergeared stuff anyways and would get tossed pretty much the second you purchased WONY.

Oh and also, if you feel like trying tricky stuff when you start and choose to pick the "Hardcore Agent" option, keep in mind that it's a Permadeath mode to the game and it's completely optional as it's occupying a single character slot out of four on total.
This game is really about experimenting and playing your own way, but yeah. Don't pick Hardcore if you want to start with a relax breeze!

don't get the year one pass until you have WONY, it's useless otherwise (and honestly not that necessary at all) EDIT: I'm thinking of the season pass not the year 1 pass, ignore me

I didn't buy it

#

It was on my dad's old account

Cause we game share

rough sleet

it's mainly just some extra missions that are unfortunately locked to story difficulty (so not challenging at all after a certain point) but they are very interesting looking locations....

verbal crest
#

I'm looking in the store and there is no ultimate edition just the basic one

rough sleet
#

idk if playstation has it worded differently, should be 3 editions mainly (base game, WONY edition which is base + wony, and ultimate edition which is base + wony + year1 pass)

verbal crest
#

Nope just the base game

rough sleet
#

but yeah, u already own base game so w/e u do don't buy from actual store

#

if you ever want it later you can buy it from in-game store

I probably will

#

Also like most other ubisoft games there is a store is it the same in this?

The one where you can claim free stuff among other things

yes, you can buy it ingame (although it is much less likely to go on sale)

also, if i run iron horse once, for base materials, come back and do it again once i need things like the frame, engraved drum, etc., will iron horse drop them?

Are hunters random encounter?

rustic glade
#

If you have a scorpio definitely consider taking it, even if your dps is low the stuns on a hunter help greatly

cedar ivy
#

hunters in CD are not random. they are part of the game mode.

#

you fight 4 hunters first thing as you disable counter measures
then again you fight hunters at teh extraction phase at the end.

during the 'complete 2/3 objects' and the 'main' objective you wont fight any of them

still juniper
#

is scorpio even good?

it's great. Good damage, 3 shots disorients, 6 shocks so you can pretty much stunlock an enemy to death

I Been farming to get max core and regular attributes to get ready for my build

reef reef
#

take attribute off of item, that item is destroyed but the stat you took is saved to your library

#

you can put that attrubute on any of the things of the same type, but you can only recalibrate one thing and one thing only per item

still juniper
#

like, if you mod a 12% on to a pair of gloves, you can tack on a 15 percent after if you get it

reef reef
#

Once you recalibrate a slot, that slot is all you can change

still juniper
#

thats what i said

#

if i recal, say, 12% headshot damage on to my gloves, and get a 15% headshot damage, i can change the 12 to a 15

reef reef

You could also decide headshot damage isnt what you want, and swap it to crit damage instead.

# still juniper am i the only one that has had tons more crashes than normal

My crashes have been getting more and more frequent. To the point it's unplayable. I've tried all of the "fixes". I used to get the "not responding" crash every time I would play for the past 8 months or so. It would crash about 15 minutes into the session, I'd relaunch and it would be fine. Now it crashes to desktop randomly. Yesterday I crashed 3 times during a DH raid before the Weasel fight....

I actually discovered why I don't have many crash issues after the patch - until today I basically never played Countdown

Managed to level True Patriot from 0 to 10 in a bunch of runs, but so many of them ended in being abruptly kicked to the WH

sturdy fable
#

I'm just hoping the patch next Tuesday fixes the crashes...

molten spire
#

I played Countdown on PTS phase 3 and while it was fun, the amount of crashing it did left me with a sour taste when it released with the same stability

noticed

#

It's so random too. I can go 3 hours with no crash, and the next day 4 crashes in less than a half hour.

I could probably build Foundry Bulwark and/or Future Initiative proficiency equally quickly, but the amount of crashing is barely worth it

I've created a new character and going through NY, I've opened all the safe houses and small missions. It won't let me start any of the missions. It says to replay on normal but only story mode is available. Do I need to get to 40 first?

azure lintel
#

If you started a new character, you need to re-run the entire WoNY manhunt again

#

After you've run them all on story and get Keener's watch on Liberty, you can resume the game like normal and play the missions on other difficulties

Is it really necessary to use skills I seldom use,say pulse skills to level up expertise?
Or can I just use my favorite skills and forget about the skills I dont like?

quick wolf
#

If there's anything you don't want to use to level up expertise, your options are to donate junk or donate materials. In the case of skills, you'd have to donate materials.
That is your one and only option to increase skill proficiency without actually using them.

kind pulsar
#

div2wave good morning agents

quick wolf
#

That said, a lot of skills can be fun to use with the proper build.
So rather than just donating precious mats to upgrade them, I typically recommend grinding out a decent enough build to make adequate use of them.
You get to experiment different ways to enjoy the game that way, while also being rewarded for doing so. Unless you're in the low percent of players that have already played and gotten bored with a lot of the builds.

And if that's the case... well... rip. F in chat.

is it bad to be afraid of the dark as a teenager?

To be honest the dark is scary but I guess I attribute that to the fear of tripping on something and dying rather than an actual thing in the dark that's gonna get me

for me, i jsut heard a weird noise, and that freaked me the fuck out

#

i dont mind it just being dark, but i dont like that i cant see whats in the dark

quick wolf
#

The only thing I can imagine is just getting yourself used to the dark. Go out late at night with friends to watch a movie or grab a bite to eat. Or well... anything.
The more accustomed you get to a certain environment, the more numb you become to said environment.
Case and point with me. I work next to nail place and I can't even smell the acetone anymore. Yet everyone who spends 5 minutes in my store will immediately point it out after walking in.

Most groups don't run all four objectives, it's not really worth the risk unless you're sure you've got time, but well organized & communicative groups can do
