td2-general-chat

[vestal root]

well even i try join to someone they have the same bug with the breach pentagon

[surreal orbit]

Haha works for me…

[heavy prism]

it works but ur xp rate will be slower than a snail

[surreal orbit]

I run a dps skill build, all secondary attributes are chc & chd. Basically just 5 yellow cores on dps build.

Drone and turret draws agro

30 to 60 seconds each

[spark plover]

hello i just started a few hours ago im lvl 6 - should i skip DC and get to new york with the boost? or do i miss alot of things if i boost my character

[azure lintel]

Well, so much for wanting to use a skill build if hunters just invalidate it.

Guess I gotta go pure gun again like I did in div 1. sigh

[gusty dove]

hunters do hack skills.. lol

[azure lintel]

Precisely why I'm dumping my skill build for pure gun dmg lol

[gusty dove]

first encounter with a hunter I'm guessing?

[azure lintel]

yup

[gusty dove]

yeah, I was running dps for the hunters but my first encounter I noticed they hacked my shield, at that point I knew not to use a skill build against them

[azure lintel]

Good to know as early as possible they're worthless just like in div 1 lol

I saw there's a striker build in div 2 once again, may as well jump on that band wagon and face tank ads with a rifle

[gusty dove]

it's a good start, got a buff recently, so def worth using imo

[surreal orbit]

Miss out on story (meh), and cannot platinum the game because you lose access to some trophies. That’s it.

[frozen meadow]

you can still platinum if you make another character, no?

[surreal orbit]

Yes with that character

[frozen meadow]

two back to back exotics

its my lucky day

[fervent berry]

How would someone describe a red-blue TP build? Support? Tank? DPS?

[frozen meadow]

support dps

same category as red FI or OD

[fervent berry]

Yeah, I like that. Like League of Legends support role, I dig it

[frozen meadow]

thats if youre doing 5/1 or 4/2 tho

i run 4 red 2 blue

[fervent berry]

4B 2R for me and it hits like a dump truck for some reason

[wintry loom]

how can you upgrade a weapon past expertise 1?

[frozen meadow]

by getting your expertise level over 1

[wintry loom]

like a general expertise level?

[surreal orbit]

I prefer proficiency and expertise

[small spear]

you need to grind your expertise level more

by using or donating materials to weapons/gear/skills

[surreal orbit]

Proficiency first, then expertise for upgrading

[frozen meadow]

my 4r 2b OD is hitting 600k a pellet with my scorpio

along with significantly buffing teammates

LMAO I JUST REALIZED IM MISSING A MOD

[fervent berry]

That's hot. I would like mine to reach that well. Instead my OD build is purely for shenanigans and I never use it in a group setting

[frozen meadow]

want me to dm a pic of it to you

[fervent berry]

Yeah, that's cool. I can use it for reference when I wanna refine the build, thanks

[broken solstice]

#td2-build-advice message check out this OD with a PTS shotty before it got fixed

[frozen meadow]

nice

[mystic fog]

What build is that exactly? Cause that sounds hella fun...and i use scorpio a lot. What's the 4r and OD stand for?

[broken solstice]

ongoing directive. the gear set

4 red cores

[mystic fog]

Ah thank you

Yeaha that's one of a few sets i ha en't gottwn a spare set of

I usually keep my foundry, nego, hunter, eclipse and above all Striker on me xD

[frozen meadow]

hits like a truck

[mystic fog]

And i have been enjoying using shotguns in combo with EB. But i will freelt admit that there's something terribly funny abour clearing out the first few main mission with mostly that shotgun xD

Oh i am gonna have a look see on that. What does OD have for the 4p?

[frozen meadow]

when you hit a status effected enemy it marks them

[mystic fog]

Aaaah

[frozen meadow]

killing a marked enemy gives you a full mag of hollow-point rounds and your team half their mag of hollow-point rounds

[mystic fog]

Hmmmm. I wanna throw in vile just to make it extra nasty

[frozen meadow]

hollow point rounds do 20% amplified damage, and if you have the vest, yours will do 35%

[mystic fog]

Oh damn

Well. Chest and pack. Vile mask. Scorpio fully optimized.....yowza

[frozen meadow]

vile is useless outside status builds

[mystic fog]

Might make the spreading more fun tho i'll take any exotoc rexommend

I got plenty to go around

[frozen meadow]

but status isnt the goal with OD

[mystic fog]

Yeah scorpio sorts that right out

[frozen meadow]

yeah

[mystic fog]

Maybe a Coyota? Or memento?

[frozen meadow]

or just not an exotic?

[mystic fog]

I mean.....fair

I like my exotics tho :<

[frozen meadow]

i dont use an exotic with it and have 54% CHC 139% CHD

[mystic fog]

Nice

[frozen meadow]

about to get my shield to expertise level 21 :p

[broken solstice]

i run all red OD with the gr9 with sadist on it. the weapon is super stable that its almost hard to miss shots, you get 200 rounds, which means your team mates get 100 round of hollow point ammo when they kill an enemy i've marked with the bleed. this LMG body crits 675k. a lot of people think gr9 is shit but its not at all . this is my go to countdown build #td2-build-advice message

[frozen meadow]

they get half their mag not half your mag lol

[broken solstice]

oh damn

lol i shoulda known that

[frozen meadow]

the more you know

also 6 red is way too glassy for me

[broken solstice]

appreciate it

i never go down in countdown, but if i used that in pve i would go down a lot

[frozen meadow]

you just said its your go to for countdown

[broken solstice]

yea thats all i use it for

cuz its not too viable for me in open world pve

[frozen meadow]

youre gonna have to be hiding in cover practically the whole time cuz any shotll kill you

[broken solstice]

na i dont hide at all

i run a lot

[frozen meadow]

im not gonna argue cuz its senseless

[broken solstice]

its an amazingly survivable build but i dont know why

im just good at not getting shot in countdown. somehow thats not the case in other content lol

[frozen meadow]

enemies tend to not shoot you if you do no damage

[broken solstice]

this is not a low damage build and i get more kills than most of the team a lot. plus you need high damage to take on all those hunters, if i ran 2 blues or something I would be significantly hurting my ability to kill them

[covert birch]

Aight Imma be back. Gotta do that Capitol Building mission solo like I did Roosevelt Island.

[surreal orbit]

Solo it on heroic difficulty (world tier 5) and get back to me. Story mode is simple af.

[covert birch]

I'm currently World Tier 3 atm

[river forge]

Can anyone help me finish leveling up I’m at lvl 20 jus came bck from div 2

[surreal orbit]

Doing story mode strongholds. And there is nothing wrong with that. But soloing higher difficulties is much different.

[merry zinc]

what’s targeted loot for dz today

[surreal orbit]

Different stuff here, different stuff there…

[merry zinc]

i just need dz

[surreal orbit]

…..

[wintry loom]

anyone know where im best farming for punch drunk mask?

[elfin hazel]

douglas & harding targeted loot

[elfin hazel]

future initiative DZW
tip of the spear DZS
gila guard DZE

[merry zinc]

that sucks

[covert birch]

I JUST hit world tier 4.

[surreal orbit]

That tends to happen after completing an invaded stronghold at level 30…

[merry zinc]

is anyone gonna tell that guy to farm countdown

he’s wasting so much time

[wintry loom]

whats countdown?

[wind turret]

@wintry loom PvE gamemode whee you can easily farm gear

[surreal orbit]

Current level?

[bleak ridge]

So I know there's a mobile division game coming out at some point in the future, couple of questions:

1. Is there pvp mode? If so, 2/3
2. Will ubisoft be preventing the use of Virtual Machines/Mobile OS emulators?
3. How will Ubisoft counter #2 if they are not actively policing the system (ie. Mobile users in dark zone being destroyed by pc players)

[wintry loom]

ive hit 40 just on shd lvls

[low flame]

1 yes
2 so far no if I’m correct
3 idk

[surreal orbit]

Then you should have access to countdown. You can select your targeted loot. Challenging/heroic is best farm.

[bleak ridge]

Yeah because if question 2 is not solved via anti VM detection (ie call of duty mobile) then they might have some issues with their pvp

[wintry loom]

whats my best way of finding a group for it

[surreal orbit]

Map, matchmaking tab, countdown, select difficulty

[wintry loom]

ty ty

[wind turret]

@bleak ridge I know Widdz tried a heap of emulators to get it working on PC during the beta test and they all failed to load the game properly

[low flame]

That’s because emulators don’t support closed betas

[bleak ridge]

I think emulators would be fairly simple to block, but a virtual machine running a mobile phones Operating system?

[low flame]

Number 2 we really have no information I’m just guessing no

[merry zinc]

your iq has to be so low to ask this 💀

hello does anybody know if this game will have an anti cheat? has anyone reversed it yet? u got middle school tomorrow go to bed

[reef reef]

Dont attack people like this.

[bleak ridge]

https://tenor.com/bIhcy.gif

[gray escarp]

Who hurt you?

[covert birch]

2 strongholds down in one day.

That's what I call an achievement in and of itself.

[visual trellis]

anyone want to help me get some masks

[reef reef]

I'm sure someone in the lfg channels would love to help you out.

[visual trellis]

ok thanks

[visual trellis]

anyone want to help me get hunter masks i almost have all of them

[reef reef]

I'm sure someone in the lfg channels would love to help you out.

[desert torrent]

Hi !
I'm new on this server.

Someone's french here ?

I haven't found nothing french the division server.

(Sorry for my bad english)

[oak prawn]

i dont think there is 1 English is the main language here

[desert torrent]

Ok, thank you 🙂

[gray delta]

can anyone help me with the manhunts?

[upper acorn]

Anyone know the best place to farm Lady Death?

[north cloak]

Countdown with target loot to smgs

[upper acorn]

Would summit work?

I’m only asking because that’s what I’m in currently

[sturdy cape]

anywhere with smg targeted look could work, i agree with ^^ that countdown is the best place tho

[upper acorn]

Okay thank you

[upper acorn]

I got it my first run

[velvet aspen]

Gotta love it when the devs throw shit at me and expect me to understand it in a few seconds

[sturdy cape]

🤨

[low lily]

Skill issue

[dark aspen]

Is everyone still getting the dark path apparell keys? The event is open but not getting keys

[reef reef]

the period to get keys from levels has closed, the event stays open for a few more days if you want to buy keys, thats it

[dark aspen]

damn..thanks

[reef reef]

yup

[copper crypt]

Is the game still worth to get or are there not enough people?

[hoary prairie]

As a new player the game still seems to be quite alive

Im still trying to find a clan though

Most of them have like 100+ people

[mystic fog]

I mean i got one...and of the half dozen people in it i'm the only active one atm...clan lvl 26 or something

[copper crypt]

sounds like a dead game i guess

[hushed ingot]

If anyone needs some lvl up help...send me a PM!

[upper acorn]

That’s only one clan

[copper crypt]

but the other clans do not have that much active players either

[sweet star]

Time to get the dlc boys

Can skill specs like turret n drone still do good dmg in end lvl content

[mystic fog]

Not at all. And that's 1 clan with people that play other games now. So your deduction has no proper base to conclude that xD.

[cloud sage]

I get the feeling that the vast majority of players enjoy The Divison 2 solo. I could be wrong though.

[copper crypt]

prove me that pvp is alive and ill buy the game bro
but from what i have seen the game seems kinda dead and i dont want to buy a dead game

[elfin hazel]

pvp isn't as alive as pve because its not the main focus

[cloud sage]

Personally I'll play a dedicated pvp game if I want pvp.

[elfin hazel]

the game has always been pve focused first more now than ever

[copper crypt]

so there is the DZ just for decoration or what?

[azure lintel]

Good, DZ should be exactly that

[low flame]

There is still a dedicated community playing pvp

It’s more than just a few people

Depending on where you live

[azure lintel]

PvP in div has always been pretty awful lol.

[copper crypt]

maybe for u
ive heard div 1 pvp was actually good

[copper crypt]

okay i see

[azure lintel]

Anyway, question about target farming.
What's going to be the most effective method(s) to get a vile mask and scorpio shotgun for a eclipse protocol build.

[low flame]

For example if you live in Europe you might get a lot of people while if you’re in Australia you’ll get no one

[low flame]

Targeted loot shotgun and mask

[elfin hazel]

mask & shotgun target loot in countdown

[azure lintel]

Which has also been rough because kneepads have not been dropping with status effect on them. All the pieces so far have been like 7.5 status sadly

[azure lintel]

I figured as much. Challenging difficulty I guess? I hit like a wet noodle as a fresh 40 with a lackluster skill build, which is useless against hunters

[elfin hazel]

challenging or heroic

whatevers easier for you

[azure lintel]

Guess I'm gonna be doing protocol all day, then

Maybe it's the morning head fog, but I can't seem to set targeted loot onto the countdown option, only the summit

[small spear]

they share your selection

someone asked earlier about not being to pick it for countdown. you can pick it via summit icon instead

[molten spire]

^

[azure lintel]

Got it, ty

Shame that I can never do countdown tho

6 out of 8 people immediately left after starting it

[upper acorn]

Can you get Bullet King from farming countdown with LMGS targeted?

[sturdy cape]

yeah it's in the general loot pool

[upper acorn]

Okay thank you

[sturdy cape]

[azure lintel]

Is there some sort of rule for countdown near the end

I got hard flamed for sending the flare up with a minute left

[serene lance]

Bullet king is very fun ngl, mostly with heartbreaker

[serene lance]

Yeah, well gamer rule lol
You wait for the last second since you can farm loot from the black tusk comming from the heli

Its not really a rule but its better for loot farming yk?

[azure lintel]

I didn't know it kept spawning until after the fact lol

I figured it was limited to a certain amount, what with all the hunters at the end

[serene lance]

My clan made me learn it

But yeah, doesnt give much but every bit is appreciated

[small spear]

memorable first time so you remember

[fervent berry]

Unspoken rule of Countdown also usually includes skipping the VIP mission (aka pls don't do it)

[serene lance]

He can die, we need to kill the dogs

[wintry loom]

how am i best farming for momento?

[knotty quail]

It's Memento, and it would be backpack targeted loot on Countdown

[smoky stag]

Hermionewingardiumleviosa.gif

[serene lance]

Wha-

[stray cairn]

Hey, I’ve recently got back into the game and I was wondering how active the community generally is? I’m EU servers (:

[fiery cloud]

Hey Zephyr, Doom

[low lily]

It depends, i mean if you matchmaking for legendary missions you will find teams for sure. For raids there is still couple of raid clans out there

[fervent berry]

What up?

EU has lots of activity and you can matchmake relatively easily for open world, Heroic missions, and Countdown.

Not sure about Conflict though. Never played it at all

[bright frost]

Hey I’m trying to get an invite to raid on division 2 I’m so lost on this and can’t figure out

[stray cairn]

Thanks^^ I’ve just made a new character so I’m really starting from the bottom😅

[azure lintel]

damn looking for a group on d2 is hard bro, that clan recruitment channel is the same like 6 groups constantly posting

[surreal orbit]

#lfg-raid-console and have an all red dps build ready, and let them know that you are new to the raid.

[bright frost]

Just saw that thank you.

[surreal orbit]

See pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice for dps builds

[bright frost]

I have beaten dark horse just not iron horse.

Dark hours *

I have a solid tech build that melts PVE. Done a lot of legendary missions and strongholds usually top dps in groups I run with just got back on after a long break but back in it to win it.

[surreal orbit]

Dps for your first iron horse would be best

[copper crypt]

D1 or D2?

[surreal orbit]

???

[copper crypt]

buy division 1 or 2?

[serene lance]

Why not both

[surreal orbit]

^

[copper crypt]

wow thanks for the informative message

[surreal orbit]

They are both good is why we answered that way. Probably more folks on D2, but it’s your choice

[sacred carbon]

so i got the division 2 after a long while how do i get good loot

[sacred carbon]

yeah there are way more on d2 but d1 is still very fun

[serene lance]

Countdown

[surreal orbit]

Reach end game first

[serene lance]

Oh yeah prob that first

[copper crypt]

okay, mb then
what about pvp?
i heard DZ in D2 is not as good as D1

[modest lintel]

heard this heard that

[serene lance]

Dk, i dont go into DZs a lot

[surreal orbit]

I have heard the same thing… but I only go into the DZ for exotic components.

So technically I go in there a lot, but avoid all the pvp stuff

[sacred carbon]

hey how do you get cool clothes in the division 2

[surreal orbit]

In the early stages open all the backpacks you find on the ground. You also earn apparel cache keys through gaining xp. There are also apparel events but none are active atm. Some apparel is not available since the apparel events have ended like the resident evil stuff. Then there is also purchasing stuff in the store.

[sacred carbon]

you can actually purchase those outfits

like hunk is 10 dollars wort of premium credits

[surreal orbit]

There is a current apparel event (free keys ended on Tuesday) that you can still purchase the items in the store till next reset on this coming Tuesday.

[azure lintel]

Finally got my scorpio, woo

Now I just need vile mask

[broken solstice]

awesome. scorpio is a real milestone

[surreal orbit]

Hate trying to decide what to spend my exotic components on… I’m only concerned with weapons and skills but previously have been pushing raid, and consistently used weapons to expertise level 15 or 20.

[elfin hazel]

if you don't have either game and are looking for a pvp experience you are likely better off looking for a pvp game

[modest lintel]

Div 2 got pvp

[upper oriole]

a game is only as dead as the person who doesnt own it, thinks it is because they never played it..

[upper oriole]

i farm them all on the normal character, only to spend them all on the HC character..

[high hawk]

I dont like the fact that you Need Xbox live Gold or PS plus to go in DZ

[surreal orbit]

Makes sense

[oak prawn]

That's the downside of playing on consoles sadly

[surreal orbit]

Why? You want it all to yourself?

[oak prawn]

With pc all you need is internet

And connection ti whatever server

[high hawk]

I mean to able to go there without PS plus or Xbox live gold

[surreal orbit]

I get a solo DZ server almost every day…. 😂 😆 🤣

[high hawk]

Not that i want them for me

[oak prawn]

I get 1 other person but we leave each other alone 🤣

[high hawk]

Yea

But i dont have the cash for a good pc

[surreal orbit]

👍

[oak prawn]

I Mean you can run TD2 on 1660

[elfin hazel]

yes it has pvp but its not the main focus and has less players

[oak prawn]

TD2 is more pve based

[elfin hazel]

so if you dont have the games you're probably better off getting a pvp game when looking for a pvp game

[oak prawn]

Like today's sponsor Raid shadow legends 🤣

[main delta]

Is targeted loot the best course of action to get the vile mask?

[oak prawn]

Yes

Target loot is tbe best way to get a spefic item

[surreal orbit]

And countdown is the best place to farm targeted loot

[gusty dove]

that's if RNG is with you and looking for something very specific 🤣

[oak prawn]

Better then caches

[gusty dove]

true

[oak prawn]

And uk eventually your get whatever with targeted loot but with Caches the game could hate you and give you the same stuff over and over

[surreal orbit]

But with countdown you can get both

[surreal orbit]

For me, if I save the credits and buy many at one time, say 10 or 20, I get way less duplicates than if I buy them one at a time. But that was before I had everything and now just want the exotic components…🤣😆😂

[oak prawn]

Meh I have every exotic as well so now I get dups and they become exo components

[azure lintel]

vile mask please drop

and don't drop with shit stats pls thx

[gusty dove]

it only drops with 3, but if you mean godrolled.. good luck

[full zinc]

Easy enough to optimize

[lilac kestrel]

What to do after killing keener and reaching 40? Im more focused on getting my builds up

[full zinc]

Golden bullet ge right now. Get exo and named caches

[lilac kestrel]

Also is there any way to uplevel guns or no

[lilac kestrel]

Thank you

[surreal orbit]

See pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

[full zinc]

Exotics you can use 1 of the blueprints to level it to 40. All the rest you have to refarm iirc

[azure lintel]

If it gives me status effect as a roll, I'm happy

but it's legit not dropping haha. I got scorpio after one run

[surreal orbit]

But you will need exotic components, which comes from deconstructing exotics

[serene lance]

I got maxed scorpio in a crate just 2days ago

[gusty dove]

shiny free exo components, yes pls

[oak prawn]

Ouu a piece of candy

Anyone who gets that family guy reference

[gusty dove]

every eagle bearer I get from dh is a shiny component 😁

[full zinc]

Gotta spend them somewhere

[fiery cloud]

Hey Buddha, Fearlxss

Milo

[gusty dove]

ello 😄

[azure lintel]

rando drop for me, all stats a % off of max

[serene lance]

Lol

[errant comet]

Hello

[surreal orbit]

Hey Saph

[azure lintel]

bruh really

3 exotic caches, all merciless

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-gif-21922016

[slender gulch]

reinstalled this game on a whim, feels good to see its still a dumpster fire after all this time.

[honest shore]

anyone wanna help me lvl up? just started d2 on pc

finished first hyena mission

[heady depot]

Anyone got qny status effects buid thats decent?

[surreal orbit]

See pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

[cloud sage]

Don't stress it. Level up on your own and explore all the content properly.

If you don't want to that's fine but you'll miss out on alot of stuff.

[high hawk]

Is there a way to increase the health regeneration Speed?

[frozen meadow]

why would you ever want to

[surreal orbit]

Armor regen, but no health regen. It would be worthless

[high hawk]

Just for asking

[frozen meadow]

health regen wouldnt help in any scenario ever

[high hawk]

Mybe not on short range but on long yes

[surreal orbit]

Huh?

[high hawk]

In a short range combat, It wouldnt help

But on long range combat yes

[surreal orbit]

Health is insignificant in this game, armor is a different story.

Cover will do a much better job

[robust dune]

What is the best way to farm exotics ? Summit ? Target loot on missions ? Other ?

[surreal orbit]

Countdown with targeted loot. Can use the currency to buy exotic caches

[robust dune]

Oh ok thanks ! Currency ? Where can you buy caches ?

[surreal orbit]

Countdown vendor across from raised helicopter platform outside the BOO. You pick up currency from the hunters in countdown

[timber hatch]

4p hunters fury will refill 100% of your health on kill, but it's so minor no one even remembers

[surreal orbit]

I didn’t remember

[timber hatch]

The only mechanic that matters with health is that if your at full health and take a chunk of damage, you will still have a couple seconds before you go down. But since HF refilling health doesn't reset that hidden timer, it's meaningless.

I'd also argue armor is equally as worthless as health on its own.

[fervent berry]

I'd figure what matters the most is if you can delete your enemy faster than they can down you

Literally armour and health are insignificant if you're killing faster than the world

[low flame]

But you can’t just worry about one enemy, you have multiple firing at you all at once. If you can take out an enemy faster than they can kill your you still have to worry about others. If you spend too much time dealing damage to one guy then another will kill you because you have no armor. For example I can focus on the ten rushers coming at me and kill 5 but then a sniper breaks my armor and the 5 remaining rushers kill me

[timber hatch]

The tradeoff for armor just isn't worth it when you can run a T0 crusader shield and have the same combined survivability as 6B and no shield.

[low flame]

But that is more about situational awareness, not really armor now that I think about it

[timber hatch]

Right, that just comes down to positioning

[frozen meadow]

Name one situation where increased health Regen will help you

yooooooooooo my shield is 21 now

[honest shore]

done it before. just boring alone rlly. played through division 1 more than I can count.

once ur lvl 30 is when the fun begins

or max lvl whatever that is here

[hexed patio]

farming jefferson trade center for coyotes mask if anyone would like to join. Heroic 3 directives

[azure lintel]

Is there a way to set Countdown to get a particular gear set? I am getting non stop Fenris

[low flame]

You hover over the countdown icon on your map and press the button that says select targeted loot

[azure lintel]

Ah

[low flame]

You will see what button you need to press at the bottom of your map

[azure lintel]

It seems my countdown on my map has no icon

[low flame]

You in the top left corner where you can select to matchmake for it?

[azure lintel]

I'll DM you what I see

[surreal orbit]

Try summit, they have the same targeted loot

[azure lintel]

Thank you, got it set !

[snow hinge]

So, I'm relatively new to Div2, I leveled up my character from 1 to 30 now, how do you get to 40? I'm like at gear score, (if that matters) of 500, Red Sniper build

[fervent berry]

Do you have the DLC? You need it to progress thru level 40

[snow hinge]

Yea, Warlords of new york, I have it, but just been dinking around DC for the time being

[fervent berry]

I don't recall myself since it's been a long time, but I think you gotta talk to someone in the BoO (maybe the pilot outside the gates with the flare?)

[snow hinge]

ok, so once I get Tier 5 in DC, go to New York

[fervent berry]

I would've thought it would be marked

Oh right, yeah, you gotta finish Tidal Basin and reach WT5 first

[snow hinge]

Copy, guess I'll head to NY then, lol

[fervent berry]

Have a good time 🤘

[snow hinge]

This game got me till Bungie gets their API back up, lmao

[fervent berry]

With the DLC, it's a lot of content so that API is gonna have to wait 😂

[urban shale]

Should I get the ultimate edition or just the warlords of New York ? ( I already have the base game on pc) im switching to play DV2 ps5

[azure lintel]

So if I just redo the anderson mission, there's an exotic drop now?

instead of doctor home

[gusty dove]

if you already got dr home then yes

[azure lintel]

cool

just gotta do it faster

[gusty dove]

do it on normal, much easier

[dawn valley]

So I have my specialization set but it will not allow me to equip Diceros

[spare frost]

Guys, how do I get these Ironworks parts, and can I get the regulus parts too or do I have to wait for a reset??

Also, when is the Division 2 reset for raid loot??

[surreal orbit]

Iron works base materials comes from fresh iron horse raid.
Regulus parts require fresh run after you complete the projects.
Reset is Tuesday early morning for me, depends on time zone.

[spare frost]

So I have to wait for next week to get the regulus??

[surreal orbit]

If you share materials between characters you can run it with another character for base materials.

[spare frost]

Wait am I able to access my same stash on other characters??

[surreal orbit]

Did you complete the projects this week? Since Tuesday?

[spare frost]

If so I’ll just make a new character and run the raid

[spare frost]

I haven’t completed them yet

Just need 30 more ironworks for the last project

[surreal orbit]

Requires fresh run (after reset) after you complete the projects

[spare frost]

Or can I make a new character to get the parts??

[surreal orbit]

Still have to complete projects and wait till reset

And I think the new character gets new projects

[spare frost]

Oh, that isn’t very good

[surreal orbit]

So it’s the base materials that you want to get with the second character. Finish projects on first character. Then run fresh raid with first character after Tuesday reset

[surreal orbit]

Better than nemesis that’s for sure

[spare frost]

Yeah I managed to pick up a mantis instead

Just need a decent pistol for a one-shot PvP pistol build

[surreal orbit]

Because it’s in the general loot pool

[spare frost]

Any other pistol suggestions? Or is regulus the best??

[surreal orbit]

Regulus best

[spare frost]

Oh… guess I’ll have to wait until next Tuesday then…

[surreal orbit]

But you should complete the projects this week or you’ll be waiting another week.

[spare frost]

Yeah I’m gonna get them done tomorrow maybe

What should I use to fill the gap on the build??

Anything else???

[surreal orbit]

Not really

Check out pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

[spare frost]

Would the D50 or Liberty work??

[spare frost]

@surreal orbit

[wary condor]

What the difference between discovery and normal difficulty for raid ?

[surreal orbit]

Normal is harder and you can get the raid exclusive exotics and crafting materials that are not available in discovery. Also, you can’t matchmake for normal raid, need to put together a team. See #lfg-raid-pc

[chrome mango]

anyone wanna help me get bighorn??please dm me

[surreal orbit]

Use either one till you get regulus but neither is even close.

[spare frost]

It’s that good?

In PvP??

[surreal orbit]

Yes, it’s the talent, and when paired with dodge city holster can hit for 50 million+

[spare frost]

Not using DCH

I’m using an armor regen shield foam build

Big damage

[surreal orbit]

Then you won’t have a one shot pistol build

[spare frost]

It does loads of damage already and can do 1v3s

So would Regulus make that much of a difference?

[surreal orbit]

Best gun in the game, not sure how many times I have to say it.

[spare frost]

Oh wow

How many Ironworks materials do you get per boss?

[surreal orbit]

Couldn’t tell you, been a long time since that mattered for me

But typically I think 2 runs is enough

[spare frost]

OMG PROJECTS ARE ACCOUNT WIDE

So does that mean I can still get the Regulus this week?

[chrome mango]

what guns cant drop from countdown?

[spare frost]

Yeah and the stuff in the stash is transferrable across all characters

So I can just move a healer build over and go

[spare frost]

@surreal orbit ???

[surreal orbit]

what part of “requires fresh run after you complete the projects” don’t you understand?

[gilded perch]

Pve - regulus
Speed run nego - D50
Pvp headshot - regulus
Pvp crit - regulus or liberty

[main delta]

If you can even get a d50

[spare frost]

I got loads

Just no regulus

[main delta]

I’ve been playing since launch and have yet to get one

[spare frost]

I have every other pistol but that thing

What is this speedrun build anyway

[main delta]

Uh

So, you use the vile mask and jam everyone

[spare frost]

Like how?

[main delta]

Hold on

Check dms

[spare frost]

Ok

[frozen meadow]

Anything that is in the general loot pool

Not dz

[surreal orbit]

???

[frozen meadow]

It can't drop dz exclusives

[azure lintel]

zzzz vile farming is so boring

[gusty dove]

farming godroll?

[surreal orbit]

There are no dz exclusive exotics anymore

[frozen meadow]

He didn't say exotics

[azure lintel]

farming one just to even get the fucking thing

[frozen meadow]

He said guns in general

[azure lintel]

been 8 hours and no drop, but plenty of bluescreens if you want it

[frozen meadow]

Lol

[gusty dove]

free components, youll need it

[azure lintel]

no

[frozen meadow]

Yeah I'm low af on components D:

[azure lintel]

i need a mask

a building isn't complete if the bloody roof is missing

[frozen meadow]

I wish I had a spare 300

You go through em so damn quick

[azure lintel]

I'll worry about that after I get this stupid mask

watch it roll double defense on its lines lol

I think the biggest thing is the fact i'm doing it solo, so it's utterly numbing going through this same map with just music

[frozen meadow]

Exotic rolls are static

Vile will always roll with the same two attributes

I think it's status and haz pro

[azure lintel]

oh good

now, please drop vile, I'm so bored and want to do other things in the game

instead of anderson over and over again

[frozen meadow]

How are you farming

Ah Anderson

Yeah you're better off doing countdown tbh

[smoky stag]

lol just dropped a vile for someone
in anderson

[winter radish]

That's debatable. Targeted loot also works on Anderson, so if you're farming for a specific exo, I'd say this is still the better option over countdown

[hidden vapor]

I don't think the targeted loot works for the guarenteed exotic to get at the end of the mission but if you're talking about farming the NPC loot i'd think countdown

[azure lintel]

it's currently at mask for targeted loot

i just got a mask drop from the last boss

and of course, it's my 5th catharsis

[hidden vapor]

yeah i will say the boss on anderson mission have been dropping alot of exotics for me, but i don't think it affects your guarenteed exotic as i have it on SMGS for lady death and got like 4 blue screens in a row 😭

[winter radish]

shoot me an invite if you want, I'll drop you one if i get it

[azure lintel]

aaaand a coyote

max rolled too

GAME
ITS NOT VILE

[gusty dove]

coyote is a good mask

[hidden vapor]

starting to think it doesnt want you to have vile

[smoky stag]

if its not your 6th lol

[gusty dove]

lol true

[hidden vapor]

free exotic components all im hearin

[azure lintel]

I'd really appreciate it

[smoky stag]

thats the beauty of Anderson tbh
u dont get what u needed? you get an exo comp
except doc home. fucking useless for anything

[azure lintel]

cuz I'm getting burnt out on all these masks being what I dont want

[hidden vapor]

Also, is lady death still a WONY exclusive or is it in the general loot pool now

[gusty dove]

general loot

[hidden vapor]

lright makin sure

[hidden vapor]

Good thing about it also, you can just run it on normal and get the guarenteed exotic in like 10-15 mins solo

[gusty dove]

only good for speedruns or dz sometimes

[azure lintel]

That's pretty much what I'm doing

running foam and heal drone just to not care about anything

and hit objs without needing to stop and heal

[hidden vapor]

i jus want it to have it honestly, one of my first exotics on Console but just wanna have em all on PC

[azure lintel]

cuz sometimes the game will just spawn some obnoxious ads in weird places like explode drones and lmgs up in a corner somewhere

you don't got time to deal with their bullshit

[hidden vapor]

i run turret and striker drone while golden bullet is runnin just destroy one of the skills and get golden bullet back straight away

[smoky stag]

anderson?
run oxi.
you can also force the spawns

[azure lintel]

most spawns that matter are set so I camp it with foam

and then just shotgun it and everythings pretty much done with

[smoky stag]

we usually just leave 1 guy to deal with everything while we all move to next area

[daring mango]

Hey do I have to have the dlc to get the chameleon?

[oak prawn]

Hey doom changed my ign to the opposite of yours lmao

[smoky stag]

i dont see it yet
what is it?

also lol

[oak prawn]

Can't say it here

I don't think

My drunk ass probably forgot to change it too lazy to go to my setup

[smoky stag]

il check it later haha

[oak prawn]

#doomformod2023

Alr ill see myself out

[smoky stag]

fuck no

[oak prawn]

Doom today I attempted the all white gear raid and we got past boomer took us like 3 hours

But we got stuck on the plane fighy

Tmrw we are gonna try to get to buddy and lucy

[smoky stag]

all 8 players? all white gear?
jeezus

[oak prawn]

Yea took alot of communication

For razorback 7 of us are gonna be white gear then 1 jammer build

It's been a hkt min since I've done discovery dose DH discovery mode have drones at razorback?

[smoky stag]

cant say never done it 😄

[oak prawn]

Well trial and error

Ik discovery mode is basically a raid for dummies

[azure lintel]

back to back bluescreens

lets go

[winter radish]

Come on, at least you got an Acosta's out of it 😛

[azure lintel]

so in total, I have 5 catharsis, 6 bluescreens, 4 merciless, and 3 kneepads

gaming

[smoky stag]

what u keeping them for?
get 1 godrolled of each then trash the rest
just taking up inventory space

discov

[frozen meadow]

hi peeps

[wooden mural]

Sup

[bitter wraith]

Game is unplayable on xbox one 💀

[frozen meadow]

skill issue

[surreal orbit]

🤣😆😂

[mortal agate]

Hey, guys. So, I've started playing through the main story on pc, and after finishing the federal emergency bunker, the gps directs me there to do a replay after every completed event. Is there a reason?

[bitter wraith]

Game be like: so you want 30 - 60 FPS? Yeah no here's -500 FPS instead

It works great on series x though

[bitter wraith]

Tbh that's actually true because I kept dying since I didn't know where the enemies were (too far from screen and trash fps/wifi)

So yes it is a skill issue

[lament mirage]

🫡

[granite socket]

Hello iam new in this game is that game better than Ghost Recon Breakpoint?

[hidden vapor]

Two different style of games tbf, so it’s all based off your game preferences

[azure lintel]

ok bois I return. Day 2 grinding for vile. lets get it

[serene lance]

GL broda

[frozen meadow]

Subjective

[winter radish]

how many more runs did you do after?

[azure lintel]

you dont want to know

remember how I got like 5 of each mask, blue screens and so on

double that on top of various other duplicates of merciless and so on

[gusty dove]

still no vile?

[azure lintel]

nope

[fiery cloud]

Hey EEvee, Fearlxss, RIRI, Buddha,

[tender notch]

@cunning merlin wrong channel, please use the raid lfg one.

[surreal orbit]

[gusty dove]

heya saph

[fiery cloud]

Off to work in 30 mins

[gusty dove]

goodluck

[fiery cloud]

mendosa is actively open

thats the gunrunner

[median ether]

Where do you find the woodland camo?

[bitter wraith]

Yet another crash in countdown

Typical 🤨

Xbox: this game has quick resume
Massive entertainment: yeah no it doesn't

[mystic fog]

Ms. Cassie Done got her Merchandise \o/

[onyx nymph]

I take it that there isn't an exotic similar to the ninja messenger bag in Div 1, that acted as a plus 1 for any gear set

[tender wave]

nope

[coral meadow]

Anybody else getting crashes when trying to fast travel from NY to DC on xbox series x?

[dense trench]

are yall having problems with the game booting up and freezes i know its not my pc's specs cause i have a 3060ti and ryzen 5 3600 in there

[surreal orbit]

Welcome to Division 2

[tender wave]

quite a common problem: you should be able to get to DC by joining & quitting a countdown match. Once in DC you will find you still crash whenever you move the map over the top right area (near summit) but can probably fix this by doing all the manhunt tasks.

[winter radish]

Talking to the pilot in Haven works as well

[azure lintel]

I need help

[midnight flare]

What's up?

[surreal orbit]

With?

[azure lintel]

Let's say I hit a brick wall on technician stage 4

[surreal orbit]

Will need a little more info

[azure lintel]

Sorry, I can't equip the emp grenades

[fervent berry]

Have you unlocked the EMP grenades at the spec tree?

[azure lintel]

Yes

[fervent berry]

Maybe try switching specs again from anything back to technician and maybe that could work. Never had this issue, I'm afraid

[reef reef]

are you trying to take out EMP'ed minitanks

because you dont need to use the grenades for it, the jammer pulse also works

[warm raptor]

is there a way to look up xbox clans on the discord?

[surreal orbit]

Go to the leaderboards (progression, leaderboards, clan) and write down the names of the top ten. Then go to clan menu and do a search by name. Some will accept clan requests and may take you in. Just a thought…

[elfin hazel]

#td2-clan-recruitment

[fervent berry]

Mostly PC clan adverts, not many for Xbox though. Even I'm still looking for a clan 😂

[surreal orbit]

Try the trick above! They should be the more active clans and there are sure to be some that are accepting clan requests

[elfin hazel]

just gotta keep diggin then ig since the question was asked for in/on the discord

but its probably better to just dig through ingame

[surreal orbit]

I joined a #4 clan that way back in the beginning

[azure lintel]

Can't activate the gunner specialization

[surreal orbit]

If you didn’t buy the year one pass, you need to complete the field research before you can equip it.

[azure lintel]

Then how am I supposed to beat stage 4?

[surreal orbit]

Which field research are you doing?

[azure lintel]

Stage 4 and destroy 4 mini tanks while they're EMP

[elfin hazel]

jammer pulse is base game I'm pretty sure

no gunner needed

[surreal orbit]

Which stage and activity @azure lintel

[elfin hazel]

I believe they're talking about stage 4, system overload: destroy 3 black tusk mini tanks after using an emp pulse on them

[surreal orbit]

Just want to clarify

[elfin hazel]

I believe as aspect said you can use the jammer pulse

the gunner pulse is banshee which wouldnt do anything

[azure lintel]

So what? Should I stop doing the technical tasks and do the gunner?

[surreal orbit]

WHAT ACTIVITY?

[elfin hazel]

no you use the jammer pulse which you unlock with skill unlocks

like you would with almost every other skill when you start

[azure lintel]

Destroy mini tanks while they are EMP

[azure lintel]

No I can't-

[surreal orbit]

See what @elfin hazel said

[surreal orbit]

Current level?

[azure lintel]

30

[surreal orbit]

Then you need to find more shade tech to unlock the jammer pulse

[elfin hazel]

only the banshee pulse & archilles pulse are locked behind things being gunner spec & camp white oak manhunt

[surreal orbit]

Banshee comes with gunner, only locked behind field research and spec tree…

[tender wave]

banshee is irrelevant to the question at hand though. The only pulse you need for the challenge is the Jammer pulse which is one of the base game skills.

[surreal orbit]

☝️

[azure lintel]

Ok, thanks

[nocturne bone]

pff, game dead

cant find one player to do a gen anderson run

[knotty quail]

Just do it on your own

[tender wave]

have you turned on the Golden Bullet event? If not, try doing that first.

[nocturne bone]

nevermind, gues is time to unintal Division 2

ok, last try

[nocturne bone]

ok, will try with seaon open

[tender wave]

it'll only matchmake you with people that have it off if you have it off, and most people turn that event on because it makes things a lot easier

[nocturne bone]

Well in EU game kinda dead, for months now.

is it true, who more players in mission, the dificulty increases ?

[tender wave]

can depend on difficulty too, most people play at heroic so lower difficulties likely to be dead (excluding the Anderson manhunt)

yeah number & toughness of enemies scales with the number of players

[nocturne bone]

ok

will try solo, see if i can do it

free place on Heroic Gen Anderson

[azure lintel]

Bro

Running a 4 man for vile, and game deadass gave me double exo mask drop

Guess which ones it was
And which one it wasnt

[mint adder]

why'd that get deleted

[astral jacinth]

Are you guys currently enjoying the difficulty of heroic manhunts for the current season?

[oak prawn]

yea much more challenging

plus it give us a challenge like solo the manunts heroic with all directives

like how the bounties are ether challenging or heroic as well

[bitter wraith]

So how exactly does the game expect me to get 880k XP with system corruption and yaahl gear?

I mean...CD has rigged rng as usual but still better than one level every 3 months

[reef reef]

certain word that begins with cu

[bitter wraith]

I guess the only reasonable way to get to level 20/21 expertise is by farming printer filament for several hours a day for 2 or 3 months?

Plus system corruption gearset so even more lol

[winter radish]

Depending on your SHD level it's more efficient to just run a fresh toon through WONY and then spend the points on filament

[surreal orbit]

Yup

[bitter wraith]

How much filament does a run get you assuming your level is 1150?

Plus how the hell do I get system corruption other than the 0.0001% drops in dz?

Assuming I don't get some tryhard killing me

[winter radish]

your level - 800 is what you can spend

[bitter wraith]

Oh OK ty

[winter radish]

so 3500 filament if you buy it on the watch

alternatively, you can buy cash with your points and then buy mods from the vendor, trash them and donate that filament

yields a little bit more, but is a lot more work too

[bitter wraith]

That's like 115 points

For expertise so 115/200 assuming you start at 0/200 on a level

Think I might stick with the slow grind of filament farm in countdown and summit because its just easier overall

Plus in a way more fun

[winter radish]

whatever works for you

[astral jacinth]

I’ve been turning in gear for expertise donation and then dismantling the leftovers afterwards, seems to be working out for me

I prefer to not farm expertise resources though

[surreal orbit]

Just donate resources/materials

[bitter wraith]

I'll only do filament and basic materials though

[surreal orbit]

That’s up to you

I ran my 10k shd character through wony 7 or 8 times and was done in a week, week and a half…. Like 700k printer filament! 🤣😆😂

[broken solstice]

damn it doesnt last long does it. too much stuff to upgrade

[surreal orbit]

Now it’s farming exotic components every day. DZ seems to be the best bang for your buck. Can get 3 (max so far) from a 10 minute run… 🏃

[broken solstice]

nice. i keep my good expertised chatterbox on an alternate character and i collect the 3 exo components from hyena lock boxes (1 each in downtown east, federal triangle and judiciary square) and i craft like 4 or 5 chatterboxes a week to get exotic components. its a nice addition to the exos i get from just playing or doing projects. usually only takes me about 10 minutes to get all 3 chatterbox components. its super easy

[fervent berry]

TIL that you can use the oxidizer to damage and destroy the weakpoints on those rocket launchers in Tidal Basin. This game never fails to surprise me.

[gusty dove]

i've seen a video of people oxidizing those for farming legendary

[surreal orbit]

Do that as well on 3 characters

[broken solstice]

good idea

[stiff grail]

hey is someone here lvl 30 dm me plz

[copper owl]

Looking for an active clan.

[lament mirage]

#td2-clan-recruitment

[surreal orbit]

Most in clan recruitment are PC

Go to the leaderboards (progression, leaderboards, clan) and write down the names of the top ten. Then go to clan menu and do a search by name. Some will accept clan requests and may take you in. Just a thought…

[frozen meadow]

i traded my famas for a ksg and its nuking

[oak prawn]

Ksg can nuke

[unique summit]

Yes! Mainly because every manhunt mission (including Anderson) is trivially easy on heroic if you play it correctly. One could argue that the enemies are a little too tanky but it only feels that way if the builds aren't right.

For example the Lucky mission is super easy with a EP vile golan fire build. The rooms are small and the fire spreads easily.

You can still brute force with DPS but it just takes a little longer.

[astral jacinth]

I wonder if they would just put full on Legendary settings and says its Heroic for the next manhunt

I would be ecstatic

Legendary but in smaller chunks of content

[stiff grail]

anyone on ps4 up rn?

[feral tulip]

Idk why I have a feeling div heartland will just get suddenly cancelled, there is just too much silence, last trailer was low quality barely scrapped together not showing almost any real gameplay. Same like ghost recon frontline was during its development.. + the game is just getting delayed all the time

Kinda just expecting to see a statement of cancelling the project

[graceful valve]

its pretty much finished lol

[feral tulip]

How do you know? You get access to some playtests? I don't know anyone who played playtest maybe like 1 person and he played it like a year ago and told me it's very barebones state

[dusky notch]

this games dead....

[graceful valve]

yes i played one a couple months ago

[dusky notch]

does anyone walk in dz anymore

[graceful valve]

99% sure game will be DOA

[feral tulip]

How does it feel? More like div1 or more like div2 when it comes to combat, movement fluidity etc

I hope it's not clumsy as div2 is when dropping skills quickly etc

[graceful valve]

its a mix but much faster than div 2

[feral tulip]

Sounds good

[graceful valve]

i think the reason why they haven't said anything about it is bc they know its horrible probably from their statistics

yk how on tarkov u grind to get good gear and weapons to pvp

on heartlands u grind and grind to almost never pvp and 90% of the time u fight bullet sponge npcs

as much as i wanted heartlands to succeed the mobile game looks 10x more promising than heartlands

[feral tulip]

Lol

I always thought heartland main game mode will be something almos same as div1 survival mode

Some sort of div1 survival and battle royale wannabe mix

[graceful valve]

the main game mode is just getting loot with 15-20 other players who can see the loot u pick up and literally steal itt

[feral tulip]

Well sounds like it's not gonna stand for long as a game

[graceful valve]

100% not a long term game

just ubisoft sqeezing more $ out of a dead franchise

[feral tulip]

I don't get it why they don't just make a F2P division game with proper long term progression and paid expansions for reasonable pricing they are loosing so much on this

Div2 was the most unnecessary sequel imo

[graceful valve]

they don't know what they even want

the game seems like it wants to do so much but fails in each category

[undone timber]

I never played td1 but I love td2

[feral tulip]

Nah it's just ubisoft and their classic trend of building an IP and then try to milk as many sequels on popular name as possible

With wasted potential of every game they release

[feral tulip]

Pretty much sounds like majority of ubisoft games lol

[graceful valve]

they had the dark zone

something unique

[undone timber]

As far as I understand it dz in the first game was much better

[graceful valve]

idk how they went from a big dark zone to 3 tiny dark zones

12 players max

and then they decide to split their playerbase with the warlords dlc xpansion

then try to get a bunch of players to come back to a new system (expertise) thats gatekept behind their new game mode XD

and look now, nothing until spring of 2023

all new ubisoft releases are horrible

[undone timber]

I have some hope for ac mirage

[graceful valve]

all DOA, roller champions, rainbow extract

[feral tulip]

Sorry to say but thats a hopium, no gameplay shown yet don't expect much

[feral tulip]

Yep

[graceful valve]

even releasing their games on steam for even more $ XD

[undone timber]

Long as it's better than valhalla

[graceful valve]

avatar most likely wont even release in 2023

whats that pirate game that everyone was saying was shit

[feral tulip]

Look at ghost recon, the effort in Wildlands which was one of the best ubi releases in past decade imo, the map size and variety, storytelling, setting. And then the monstrosity breakpoint launched and oh boy

[undone timber]

I miss splinter cell

[feral tulip]

Honestly I am happy they didn't ruin splinter cell as well

[graceful valve]

ive heard they are rebooting or remaking it + a vr game

[feral tulip]

The VR one was cancelled

Same time they cancelled frontline

[undone timber]

And what even happened to xdefiant

Haven't heard anything on it in ages

[feral tulip]

It's very Lidl state, played last playtest and compared to first ones they barely made progress

[undone timber]

Ah

[feral tulip]

Classic hero shooter 6v6 (imagine black ops 4) but way less polished

[undone timber]

I'm kinda sad they got rid of elite squad tbh

It was a nice timewaster

[feral tulip]

Xdefiant might be ready by like q4 2023 imo from what I played

[graceful valve]

i think ubisoft is trying to just be bought out

[feral tulip]

Needs 1-2 years still imo

[undone timber]

It's been beta for ages

[feral tulip]

Ubi is just limit testing, release games with minimal effort and see how low it can go so people buy it

AC games did that, FC games as well

Ghost recon breakpoint, div2 etc

[undone timber]

I quite like div 2 tho

[feral tulip]

Now

[undone timber]

Was it really bad at some point

[feral tulip]

But I remember div2 at launch it got booring quick

I saw 0 replayability in div2, no real DZ as well

[graceful valve]

i played for a month at launch and didnt touch the game until WONY came out

[feral tulip]

Only thing that kept me hooked in div2 was solving the hunter riddles

[undone timber]

In hindsight I don't get how anyone ever figured out the steps

[feral tulip]

Div1 just had way better starting ground, better DZ, Last stand mode absolute blast imo, underground, great game setting and atmosphere

[graceful valve]

how did they go from underground to the summit

[feral tulip]

Div2 PvP conflict mode is just absolute cringefest

Compared to last stand div1

[graceful valve]

the summit is such a downgraded underground mode with the most boring gameplay loop

[undone timber]

Hopefully descent is a little bit like underground

[feral tulip]

Yep summit gets repetitive fast

Countdown is a bit more fun at least

[graceful valve]

only thing that was useful in summit was floor 10 farm

[undone timber]

I haven't gotten to floor 100 yet but when I do I'll probably never touch it

[graceful valve]

now anyone who wants to get into the game has to do resource convoys which is so slow compared to floor 10

[feral tulip]

I had a smurf account that was constantly at floor 100 and I just kept farming my main through it lol

I remember farming convoys with 5 directives and regulus build lol

Did 100-150 shd levels/day xD

[graceful valve]

once i found out about floor 10 i never touched resource convoys again

[undone timber]

Man from October to now I only gained 100 ish shd levels

[graceful valve]

yall should have found out about that unlimited shd glitch

i dont even to worry about shd levels or making another character again

[undone timber]

I haven't been round long enough for floor 10

[feral tulip]

I don't find it fun to glitch levels

I like the effective way and farming it

[graceful valve]

i was tired of making new characters non stop so i did that shd glitch

[feral tulip]

When countdown was about to come I really did hope they will bring the resistance from div1

It had a good replayability for me and was fun to go

Felt way more challenging and fun than summit as summit doesn't increase in difficulty

[undone timber]

I can't tell whether d1 or 2 hunters were more dangerous

[feral tulip]

D1

[feral tulip]

D2 hunters lmao

Just use Scorpio

[undone timber]

I don't have one 💀

[feral tulip]

And kill him in 5 seconds

Any proper full dps AR build will melt hunter

[undone timber]

Yeah sure but I get melted by said hunter cuz I can't stun him or anything

[knotty quail]

Div1 Hunters were actually scary when you encounter them

You had to respect them back then, now you just whip out Scorpio or foam and laugh at them

[undone timber]

Was it because lack of countermeasures or were they just more cracked

[knotty quail]

They were a lot stronger

Smarter AI, too imo

And melee waw always a 1 shot

[undone timber]

Yeah I heard they have axe executions

Div 1 gold edition is like 15 sgd right now do y'all reckon it's worth it for solo content

[knotty quail]

Mmmm kinda expensive

Buy the base game first, if you like it, buy the season pass when it's on sale

[knotty quail]

Yep, they would slowly walk up to you and smack you with an axe on the back of your skull

[undone timber]

The base game is sgd 34

[undone timber]

Ouch

[knotty quail]

Oh well, I assume you get the pass with the gold edition so, go ahead

[undone timber]

It says season pass some outfit and the game

Bet

[kind valley]

Is it possible for target loot to be mislabeled? just ran Air and Space twice and not one Airaldi holdings piece.

[wheat zinc]

Missions and open areas have different loot targets. RNG is what it comes down to. Directives can increase target loot drop chances

[fiery cloud]

Run countdown and target loot lots easier

[slate lion]

True

[fiery cloud]

@undone timber div1 has lots o content ,but make sure you've got survival and underground and your good

And a total different atmosphere, feel to it

[civic mountain]

🫥

[undone timber]

Does more directives= better exo drop rates or just difficulty

[knotty quail]

Both

[remote lynx]

Hello fellow Agents

[wheat zinc]

Not sure about exotic drops in general. They do increase XP gained as well

[azure lintel]

Good morning ladies and gentleman, day 3 of vile mask farming has just begun.

So far the exotic count getting it has been:

12 Catharsis
10 Coyote
4 Acosta Bags
2 Ninjabike Kneepads
4 BTUS Gloves
11 Bluescreens
4 Merciless
5 Tardigrades
4 Scorpios

Will today be the day it drops? Or will the game continue to cocktease me with every other drop that doesn't matter? Stay tuned.

[timber hatch]

11 bluescreens? 😬

[azure lintel]

11 Bluescreens!

[timber hatch]

are those just from exotic countdown crates?

[azure lintel]

From various sources, but almost all of them are from anderson

In all the time I took getting it over these two days, my calibration library is almost finished, and I made a future initative build that's actually working out pretty well.

What's really impressive is that these are my own drops. This doesn't account for the groups I have been running in to increase the odds someone else may have gotten it to spare a vile for me.
Before being partied up, the game spits out viles for others, but it dries up the vile pond when I join

[gusty dove]

nice components

[azure lintel]

Idc about components unless I'm allowed to have a damage build first

Which I'm gonna have to do today and make a dps build before I can get a skill one to work

[surreal orbit]

Trust me, you’ll want exotic components

[azure lintel]

That's a weird way to spell Vile mask.

[winter radish]

None of the others you grouped up with dropped one?

[azure lintel]

Nope!

[gusty dove]

^

[winter radish]

nlg... this sounds kinda weird, especially considering your list up there doesn't have a single Chameleon or Sweet Dreams on it, which people tend to get hammered with when they farm for a certain exotic.

[azure lintel]

Your chameleon is my bluescreen

[winter radish]

😄

I might be wrong on this or remember it incorrectly, but isn't there an additional loot pool on Heroic for mission completions/boss clears?

[azure lintel]

Idk.

I am at least happy with my future setup. It's pretty nice seeing the hive charge instantly

81.1% skill haste. Lol

One charge heals like 500k base without activating other repair skill buffs

[winter radish]

Don't run the backpack, though. Get an Alps or Hana-U with Opportunistic. Or The Setup

[azure lintel]

Yeah the backpack is mid.

I have opportunistic alps atm

[winter radish]

btw did you run summit at all during all this?

[fervent berry]

Almost all of them from the Anderson mission. It just says so much about patience at that point

[azure lintel]

Yes, up to floor 100

[azure lintel]

15 minutes on average well spent

For nothing

[fervent berry]

I wouldn't say it's all for nothing since you scored yourself quite a lot of exo comps.

From my experience, you would have a much better chance of getting Vile if you're not farming for it. AKA you get it when you least expect it 😂

[rain tree]

happy new year everyone!

i love you all!

😘

[wary condor]

Which raid do I need to get eagle bearer ?

[tender wave]

Dark Hours (on Normal difficulty only)

[wary condor]

Alright thanks you should I prepare and watch strat on YouTube or only full send it with a complete squad ?

[undone timber]

My ass got my vile from a control point and I can't get a single coyotes or Scorpio

[surreal orbit]

Always helps to know a little, but having an all red dps build is more important. See pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

[wary condor]

Would striker build with coyote smg build work ?

[surreal orbit]

No smg’s, AR or Rifle for range. Strikers can work but your better of with “full meta jacket” in pinned spreadsheet imo. Can be hard to get stacks without experience.

[wary condor]

Alrighttttt thanks man appreciate the support

[kind pulsar]

Happy new year agents, I'm chilling at the pub rn and I hope everyone will enjoy their day how you see fit ❤️

[unique agate]

Happy new year to you too 🫡

[mystic fog]

Happy New Year to y'all in advance 🙂 Best wishes from the Netherlands from me and my cat Loki =3

[strange linden]

Hi all, I'm at the last task of the Stage 4 Firewall research: "Complete DARPA Research Labs Mission". But there seem to be a bug where the mission won't unlock even after Pentagon Breach. Does anyone know how to bypass this locked mission restraint? Maybe joining someone else game (who already have it unlocked). I've seen similar issues on discord, but no solutions.

[mystic fog]

hmmm that's odd. have you tried popping back to DC and then trying to travel there again ?

but if ya want i can pop over to it and run you through been a while since i did it

[tender wave]

yeah that's bugged at the moment. Joining another player and getting them to force-start the mission will count for your research though. Try asking in #lfg-pc

[surreal orbit]

Known issue, try joining someone else who has it.

[vestal root]

it no working join to someone is did the mission

i try that

[mystic fog]

@strange linden pop a /join Trunkmonkey.45 see if that let's you join in i'm at the mission 🙂

[strange linden]

That would be great if you can do it bud.

[mystic fog]

i'll hop into a group voice, and just stare at the interioir haha

[strange linden]

How do I do that?

[mystic fog]

type it out on your keyboard after hitting Enter to start the chatbox

or i can try to invite you if your UBi ID is the same

[strange linden]

I've sent an ivn. on UBI, the chatbox thing did not work

[mystic fog]

ah no probs !

[vestal root]

btw on what difficulty you doing that mission?

[mystic fog]

i'm guessing story ? tho not tried to set it higher

first run for Dan

[unique agate]

Want a third?

[strange linden]

hard minimum, we can go higher

[mystic fog]

ah ok !

[vestal root]

can i join too

[mystic fog]

Sure !

[tender wave]

Trunk for the multi-carry

[gusty dove]

free carries

[vestal root]

what we can do cuz that bug

[mystic fog]

prolly have to do story first

[vestal root]

i know

[strange linden]

could be

[vestal root]

i hope it work

[mystic fog]

sent you an invite

[vestal root]

1 min

try invite me again

thanks

[low flame]

Lol I was doing countdown and my group accidentally did the 3rd objective since we thought it was the main objective

[inner elbow]

Oh nooooo

[low flame]

It was everyone doing it except two people even I did it

[sturdy urchin]

Is the only way to get System Corruption armor through Legacy Caches?

[strange linden]

Thanks @mystic fog @unique agate @vestal root

[unique agate]

my pleasure

[vestal root]

you very welcome thank all of you too

[unique agate]

o7 gents

[gusty dove]

yes

[surreal orbit]

DZ exclusive, DZ caches (rng), maybe legacy caches (rng)

[manic berry]

Division 2 is very fun by the looks of everything

[versed monolith]

is this game rlly still crashing mid game

[manic berry]

I haven't had problems?

[versed monolith]

cuz you on console

[vestal root]

what that the golden bullet i start get every time i kill enemy

[surreal orbit]

See seasons menu

[vestal root]

i like it

is make my weapon malting them

[surreal orbit]

2 days and 11 hours left to enjoy that malting!

[sturdy urchin]

I haven't had problems all years the game been out. And I've played on many different pc setups

[vestal root]

well i will do my best

it will give more power up my lvl

[sturdy urchin]

GB-GE is really fun mostly cause you get power boost. That's it. nothing else about the GE

[gusty dove]

GB is the best event

[sturdy urchin]

SHD Exposed is pretty fun too

[surreal orbit]

4 piece rigger with backpack = never ending golden bullet… 🤣😆😂 can carry that buff from encounter to encounter.

[sturdy urchin]

Reanimated is fun for the people who like committing war crimes

[median ridge]

Happy New Year ❣️

[fervent berry]

GB is fun, not just because you get an OP buff, but there's satisfaction in shredding a chungus' armour in mere seconds 😂

[fiery cloud]

Hey Fearlxss

[gusty dove]

heya

[azure lintel]

I feel a bias coming from people kicking me because of my SHD level

When trying to queue for legendary dailies

I'm running a damage buff healing support role mostly

[fervent berry]

You're better off creating or joining a group with your friends than matchmaking for legendary content, imo. It's a hit or miss.

SHD levels are kind of a misconception in many aspects.

[azure lintel]

Yeah, but it seems to always translate to the common man's mentality on if you can hang or not

Happens in MMOs all too often haha. Like champion level in ESO.

[gusty dove]

SHD level means jackshit but people still find 1k+ shd people important as they think they know what they're doing

[timber hatch]

What's the build?

[azure lintel]

Future Init with maximized haste and repair skills, plus some duration, paired wth Btus gloves and opportunistic backpack

On technician

Chem launcher + hive
Also have a lightweight m4 with the talent that gives 30% repair skill on headshot

[azure lintel]

I've known players who still suck a fatty as their role despite being at such levels. And they'll always blame a healer for them dying before admitting they misplayed lol

Would know, as a dedicated healer in a lot of games

[gusty dove]

I've seen enough players that are 5k+ shd level and still running builds that make you question "why, what's the point?" 💀

[azure lintel]

Because they're too stubborn to theory craft and just put on what looks best haha

I understand it is a video game and you can have fun however you like, but why be adversed to power fantasies and avoid making the build you have as good as it possibly can be?

I always love that excitement of getting a setup and then fine tooth combing what resources I have that tell me "oh snap, it can be even better"

[amber cipher]

I almost feel bad because every game that gives me the chance to, I will spec all into unga bunga damage

[gusty dove]

unga bunga damage meaning..?

[low lily]

Majority people wanna get legendary missions done fast, and if you can choose between a low shd or high, you usually still choose high. Of course you can always check the build before kicking. If you get constantly kicked from groups, then your build probably isn't really good.

[amber cipher]

In the case of division 2 meaning I put all into red and hope I can rely on teammates to support if needed when I run coop stuff

[gusty dove]

red is generally all you need

[amber cipher]

Not that I dont look out for myself to not constantly go down but with only like 700k armor its hard not to get two shot sometimes

But oh well if the enemy dies faster than I do it shouldnt be a problem

[gusty dove]

kill fast, don't die 😎

[azure lintel]

I wager people are stupid, then

And focus on a little number over the player themselves

[low lily]

Shd still matters on some point

[amber cipher]

I still get kicked from countdown sometimes because Im only lvl 95

Its odd

[azure lintel]

Countdown is brainless

It doesn't require thought to complete at all

[amber cipher]

Yeah thats why I dont get why people kick low level people

[azure lintel]

To get kicked from it makes no sense. I've done with with 4 people before

[amber cipher]

Even if I wasnt helping the team at all thats just not the way to help newer players acquire gear

[azure lintel]

Good for player retention and acceptance, guaranteed!

[gusty dove]

heroic I get, but if you just go full red then I doubt you'll get kicked?

[mystic fog]

shd lvl 95 ?

[amber cipher]

Yes

I mean it definitely doesnt happen often but it still does

[mystic fog]

cause that's just idiots in the group. i managed countdown with low 200's. heck i'd only kick people myself if they went and done a stupid.....and it wasn't entertaining somehow 😂

[oak prawn]

Most likely it's due to yoir build

[azure lintel]

I did heroic level 1 shd after I finished the campaign to get a build online

I just foamed groups at doors and held objectives

[mystic fog]

you need some new / better gear then i take it Kima ?

[amber cipher]

I would think my build is quite good for all the farming I already did 😭

[oak prawn]

Is it all red?

[amber cipher]

Yes.

[oak prawn]

Cause for CD an all red is the norm
