[wintry wraith]

Yea those fks

The ones that come out during a heroic mission

[pliant karma]

[brazen mountain]

Oh then your build isn't very good for heroic

[brazen mountain]

To face the challenge head on

You'll realize when you start the DLC

[vivid swift]

whos build

[brazen mountain]

^

[simple garden]

anyone wanna do eb raid?

[dapper atlas]

Try in #lfg-raid-pc

[pliant karma]

I've seen the reviews, it's brutal

also poorly rated ig

I remember seeing it at the bottom of a ratings list

[clever sandal]

Just wondering if its worth getting back to this game? Is it nearing the end of its lifespan with heartland coming soon

[graceful valve]

heartlands is going to be DOA

[paper phoenix]

Been getting a weird glitch with open world Rogues in that they won't spawn. I hear the warning tone, ISAC tells me "Rogue Agents Detected" and the music starts, then a couple of seconds later ISAC says "Target Lost"

[stoic stratus]

Is that from WONY..?

That's a detail i have never expected, but that seems like quite the trouble if they vanish like that.

[paper phoenix]

Yeah, when you're roaming the open world and you hear the triple tone and you hear "Rogue Agent Detected". If the Rogues manage to kill you, when you respawn you hear "Target Lost" from ISAC.

[pliant karma]

Got a weird feeling TU18 gonna be the last

[clever sandal]

Ah so games coming to a end soon?

[pliant karma]

No idea but with the state of the game rn who knws

[celest prairie]

sadge

[hollow oxide]

I just reinstall the game

Lmao

[celest prairie]

same comeback and its dying 💀

[pliant karma]

Lmao I did the same 3 days ago

[pliant karma]

Tis the fate of most Ubisoft games

[celest prairie]

yea there are no ''alive game '' in ubi rn its wrose then EA imo

hey EA maybe its greedy af but they actually have good game

tf2 / apex legend

[pliant karma]

EA can keep it alive

Mass Effect 3 MP Is still alive to this day

[celest prairie]

and we look at ubi

[pliant karma]

Only ones alive are competetive titles

[pliant karma]

I only started playing again cuz the boys play too

[celest prairie]

siege?

[river wyvern]

hey guys i have a question regarding to Nemesis parts
Do i have to wait until the area says invaded for it to drop the item needed?

[celest prairie]

they are not doing great on it imo

[pliant karma]

It's the only Ubisoft title with an eSports so yea

[celest prairie]

well one ''alive'' game

[pliant karma]

Better than the rest of their titles

[celest prairie]

true

[balmy cedar]

Yes pretty much you get one of the pieces from tidal basin, blueprint from invaded grand Washington hotel and then the invaded strongholds drop a piece

Rotates each week

[river wyvern]

I see! Thanks arrow

[balmy cedar]

So the week prior it was manning, this week it is capitol building, this upcoming week will be random

[cloud nymph]

could you get raid exotics weapons with the manhunt mission?

[balmy cedar]

No they’re locked to the raid unfortunately

But you can rerun the raid to get 5 keys each by killing each boss and you can also rotate characters I believe

The end chest has the highest possibility of getting the raid exotic

[cloud nymph]

I got it from a exotic cache

[cloud nymph]

yea but you can only get the keys on normal right?

not discovery

[balmy cedar]

Idk I’ve never done discovery

[cloud nymph]

I have been trying to the regulas for a long time

[cloud nymph]

oh well thank you anyway

[balmy cedar]

I think you have to do it on normal and collect all 5 pieces

1 piece per boss

[cloud nymph]

yeah I know just gotta find a group

[balmy cedar]

Gcrock server runs raids pretty often and there’s the #lfg-raid-console

[cloud nymph]

Gcrock?

[river wyvern]

ah okay! thanks!

[cloud wedge]

Question can the ridgeway pride chest piece be a world drop/ countdown drop if u farm it in the chest piece area

[shy jasper]

is there any other way i can LFG for a raid here on pc? bc the lfg channel for raids seem dead asf

[azure lintel]

Hello to all, have played division before and luckily got 2 on sale. Kinda still new to the game but also looking for an active clan to grow with and learn more tactics as well.

[dapper atlas]

Check #td2-clan-recruitment

[woeful ether]

Any news or words about the spec rework idea ? Or is it not gona happen ?

[low lily]

Will see 🙈

[wheat zinc]

Yes, but only if you’ve acquired it first. Through the project, or as a drop from someone in your group.

[devout crown]

can I target loot for Countdown?

[plush otter]

yeah, same as summit, you have a button promt called select targeted loot at the bottom when you hover you mouse over either

same if you are in those maps

[devout crown]

Where's countdown on the map? Because I'm confused on how to access the option to do that

[plush otter]

are you lvl 40? countdown is meant for lvl 40s

[devout crown]

Yes

I've already done it, but I don't know how to select what loot I want targeted

[plush otter]

if yo uare its on the north east of the map, of the main dc map

and only on dc map, you can also jsut matchmake into it from anywhere

and summit and countdown share the same tl you set, so even in NY you can set summit and it will also set that for countdown

[devout crown]

Yeah the matchmaking tab doesn't let me TL so I'm confused lol

and ahhh okay let me try to set it on Summit

[plush otter]

check in #ask-td2-community , posted how to do it in pics, couldnt post pics in this channel

[quasi saffron]

Does anyone know how to solve darpa research labs story mission locked by bug error

[desert crystal]

join some one eles

[quasi saffron]

Currently matchmaking but no one

Hi

Looking for someone to play with on ps4

[dapper axle]

Finally I've got memento after so longgg

[wintry chasm]

momento?

[azure lintel]

Yo guys

Ya playin div 2 rn?

[wintry chasm]

i am at the moment

[azure lintel]

Mind if we could do it togehter

Am returning

[wintry chasm]

haven't subscribed to playstation plus yet and im on the lincoln memorial mission

[dapper axle]

Memento

Exotic backpack

[azure lintel]

Oh kk

[wintry chasm]

also im not in the endgame, level 21 rn

[dapper axle]

Oh makes sense

[celest prairie]

dumb quesiton what tu we are in rn? 16?

[wintry chasm]

i did actually reach endgame on another account which was on my dad's ps4 before we moved houses, although he bought me my own ps4
i decided to just start over again instead of trying to resume my progress due to the time gap of not playing the division 2 because i knew for a fact black tusk would beat my backside each time

[dapper axle]

Black tusk make me wanna kms those stupid ass robots

[wintry chasm]

tell me about it

[dapper axle]

I just send a striker drone over to then and they leave me alone

[wintry chasm]

i run seeker mine and assault turret

[dapper axle]

Not bad

I use striker drone and banshee pulse

[dreamy estuary]

Yup, the pts was (and i really hope for a phase 2) for tu17

[wintry chasm]

neat

[cold lagoon]

🦭

[wintry chasm]

i just tend to use the seeker mine as an infinite grenade generator because of the fact it chases after the enemy

[dapper axle]

True its op tbf

[wintry chasm]

although i get sad when they kick it
poor mine

[dapper axle]

Which one do you use?

[wintry chasm]

explosive

[dapper axle]

Ok

[primal skiff]

What is the highest Lev of crafting bench (non dlc)?

[azure lintel]

Need level 40 maybe

[plush otter]

final upgrade is the one that puts the crafting range from 475-505

[pliant karma]

18 I tihnk\

[spring pollen]

Miss the division 1 like crazy lol do people still play it?

[pliant karma]

I'm sure they do but not alot

[spring pollen]

Do we have any dates when next division is coming

[primal skiff]

Thanks sire

[celest prairie]

nope its 16 i guess?

[gilded fossil]

Salut je viens de commencer le jeux, qui est disponible pour jouer

[wintry chasm]

english please thanks

[opal bluff]

16.2

[celest prairie]

well yea

[primal skiff]

Is that update version?

[celest prairie]

when they gonna make a Rouge Agent or Hunter DLC literally so much potential in the game and ubi just turn they brain off

[primal skiff]

What does doing the 2 daily missions get? I see the rewards lists is empty ?

[azure lintel]

Who craft me bulled king lmg exotic weapon?

[primal skiff]

U cant unless u get from a chach and share

That is usually refresh on Tuesdays

[azure lintel]

okay

what is chach

[pliant karma]

I have a question, what are ivory keys?

[plush otter]

allot of the projects are not showing what they give since a recent patch, the dailies give xp and some spec points to your equipped spec.

[celest prairie]

when u kill hunter in DC they drop 1 and if u got 8 of it you can get a AR

if im not wrong im kinda forgor

[primal skiff]

Cach the thing u get every time u lev up? Once a week u can do SHD donation to get a exotic cach which is guaranteed to drop exotic from the game

[pliant karma]

is it like an exotic or just a high end

[primal skiff]

Is it sure to be a AR?

[celest prairie]

high end

[pliant karma]

lame

[celest prairie]

i pretty sure is high end AR its a f2000 named

[celest prairie]

well the part is you kill hunters they drop mask

[pliant karma]

haven't encountered a hunter yet

[celest prairie]

yea because you have to do a certain stuff in certain point to ''summon'' the hunters

[celest prairie]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghBYr6VFVbg

these hunters are strong lol.

[azure lintel]

Where bulled king material?

[low flame]

Can’t share if an item is from a specific source, such as crafted or from a cache

[daring atlas]

can you share grupo armour

i need grupo with 2 yellows

so hard

[low flame]

If the person who is sharing it with you was in the same group as you when they got it and they do it within a limited timeframe

[daring atlas]

do u wanna farm grupo mask and kneepad

i need yellow yellow drop on them

[low flame]

This game isn’t cross platform. I’m on ps4, you’re on pc

[daring atlas]

oofofofoofffffff

[jagged cloud]

anyone for a raid ?

[rocky merlin]

Hiya, lil question about directives/difficulty - if i'm trying to run Camp White Oak to get the BTSU exotic gloves, is it better to put more directives, or higher difficulty, or both? Reddit people seem to have conflicting opinions

[daring atlas]

directives increase ur xp does not increase ru loot drop chance

higher difficulty increases ur loot drop rate

[rocky merlin]

Challenging it is then, tnx!

[celest prairie]

heroic pepega

[daring atlas]

whats the best xp farm

for shd

[pulsar cosmos]

I've heard CP4 and Elite patrols with as many directives as you can?

[wheat zinc]

Directives increase targeted loot drop chance as well

[daring atlas]

i thought thats only for summit

[wheat zinc]

Open world as well

[small spear]

yep, that was the case since summit rework

[celest prairie]

hmm can someone tell me what happen to|| faye lau after we kill her ? pretty sure i miss some lore here||

[hard ridge]

How did I just self revive with my hive-revive on cooldown ?

[zinc shadow]

#division-universe

[celest prairie]

ayo thanks

[hollow crown]

Hey y'all. I play a lot of tarkov, but also have a steam deck and I'm still looking for a deck game that scratches that tarkov itch. Do y'all think I should check out division 2?

[hard ridge]

Well I wouldn't categorize the division as an "extraction shooter" lol.... well maybe if you play dark zone... but since this game has gear score etc. you gotta be a maths teacher and have the best gear to not get 1 hit

[daring atlas]

i still havent gottan a feed slot for my drone

nothing

[hollow crown]

Ahh I see. Is that the intention of the game, or is it a balancing issue?

[daring atlas]

intention

[hollow crown]

What's the game play like for lower leveled players? How long does it take to access best gear?

[daring atlas]

it took me 2 days and 14 hours of gaming

from 1 to 40

[hollow crown]

Oh that's not too bad

[daring atlas]

from there its a grind to good loot and doing endgame stuff

i can solo challenge difficulty at shd 14 so far

im new as well

[hollow crown]

I also don't mind some grindy, ratty game play. I'm 40 and don't play tarkov that much, so I'm usually running around with low gear anyways.

[daring atlas]

u can make the game harder or easier but u will get better loot the mroe u increase the difficulty

but the end goal is to be able to roll the hardest content as easy as possible

[hollow crown]

Gotcha

[daring atlas]

in these typa games

[hollow crown]

And the coop play; are most people okay with micless teammates?

[daring atlas]

yes

its the norm

bc all u gotta do is be able to kill and thats it

kill and read instructions on screen

[hollow crown]

Awesome, I think I might pick this up. Seems like a lot of new players came in with the steam release

[daring atlas]

yup its worth getting someone to coop with as well if u have other gamers u know persoanlly

[hollow crown]

I played a TON of deep rock galactic on PC, but that game is nuts on a controller

[daring atlas]

this is the type of game where u just chat n vibe or watch a vid while playing

unless u doing raids or heroic missions where u gotta focus up

[hollow crown]

Thanks guys, you sold me!

[daring atlas]

np and its on sale with dlc for like 18 bucks

so its worth

[hollow crown]

Oh one other question. I was planning on just getting the game and the NYC dlc. I think the ultimate edition is $10 more. Worth it or no?

[daring atlas]

i didnt get it

i just got base game and dlc

idc abt skins n appearance n stuff

[hollow crown]

Yeah me neither

For 5 minutes I'm like, oh that's pretty... What else is there now?

[pulsar cosmos]

I'll be honest; I didn't feel the Ultimate Edition at all

The biggest value was the DLC and the skip it came with.

[daring atlas]

also when u get the dlc it will say if u wanna start right off with the dlc, id say dont boost up ur level or u pretty much miss out on the entire game

plus u wont have resources for endgame stuff as well

[hollow crown]

Yeah I never do that. I'll grind

[pulsar cosmos]

I played up until World Tier 4 at Tidal Basin before I went to NYC

You kind of want to use the boost. There's benefits.

[daring atlas]

i went all the way to T5

there isnt any just keep it for the 2nd character so u can farm exotics w it too

[pulsar cosmos]

Can't use the boost when you're in T5 last I checked, which is why.

[daring atlas]

yeah

[cloud sage]

Do you only get access to the classifieds missions if you own the ultimate edition? Or did everyone get access to those? I can't quite remember but I have a vague feeling that I only got them because I got some ultimate/more expensive version at launch and automatically got the year 1 pass or something. I could be totally wrong though.

[pulsar cosmos]

Getting the 3 classic specs to 165 and some mats is pretty solid.

Saves time lol

[daring atlas]

but why use it then, bc u already almost there, it was a waste when u can make a 2nd and get it boosted and use it for exotic weekly

[wintry chasm]

you get access to classified missions when you get the dlc i think

[pulsar cosmos]

I don't wanna play a 2nd character is all

[daring atlas]

all good then'

[small spear]

year 1 pass

[cloud sage]

Ah okay.

[small spear]

dlc doesn't give them

[tender wave]

For the classifieds you have to own either the ultimate edition or the year one pass

[cloud sage]

Ah, yeah I thought it was something like that.

[wintry chasm]

oh

[daring atlas]

you get the year one pass when u buy the dlc

i have it

[cloud sage]

Okay, yeah makes sense if they bundled that together with the DLC nowadays.

[daring atlas]

yeah but u dont get the season pass upgrade

i have classified missions but what are they for

[tender wave]

Doesn't come with the warlords dlc.

[small spear]

if that is the case then yes, i have a friend who bought base game and then wony, y1 pass wasn't included

[cloud sage]

I mainly see them as some extra fast travel points on the map 😄

[small spear]

practically they're just teleport points

but they have collectibles if you want

[wintry chasm]

verified that, don't have the year 1 bundle even if i have the dlc

[tender wave]

They're quite fun little missions

Especially now they scale with world difficulty

[small spear]

yeah, they have different feels compared to the main missions

[daring atlas]

well i have the classified on my map i had the game when it first came out

[cloud sage]

True, they're pretty nicely done.

[daring atlas]

does that matter? if u got the game when it came out?

[pulsar cosmos]

Oh right

[daring atlas]

if u had to buy ultimate for classified i def did not, so therefore i have classified somehow and that would be thru dlc then

[hollow crown]

If I get the ultimate edition, can I choose not to use the 30 level boost?

[wintry chasm]

yes

[pulsar cosmos]

Year 1 Pass gives you access to the other 3 Specs without doing their Field Research

[daring atlas]

base edition lets u choose too

[pulsar cosmos]

That was definitely worth it.

[hollow crown]

Oh ok, that's good then

[small spear]

you can check whether you have y1 pass in the game btw

even if you got ultimate

[daring atlas]

just less grind fro a grind game either way eh

[hybrid ore]

note that the Lvl 30 boost is unlimited, so you can use it as many times as you have a character slot free.
It's worth doing it slow for the first time, afterwards you can choose to boost or repeat, your call.

[pulsar cosmos]

It's not just grind. Getting the levels up is a passive affair. Getting field research has like, things you specifically need to do and aim for.

[hollow crown]

Ahh so you can roll up multiple characters... That's neat

[daring atlas]

didnt know it was infinite thats insane

[pulsar cosmos]

Are Calibrations account-wide?

[hybrid ore]

Your Library is, yes.

as is the post-Lvl 40 SHD Level.

[hard ridge]

How did I self-revive with my hive reviver on CD ? Confused

[primal skiff]

If u are in a team and open it up right there i think it is but to try that I need friends

[low flame]

Reviver hive can revive you

[tender wave]

Does it carry more than one charge? Maybe one charge had finished and it was working on the second?

[pulsar cosmos]

Yeah multiple people helping you get a specific item is always nice. Had a friend who dropped me Tardigrade and Lady Death when it dropped for him when he was helping me through NYC

[low flame]

No it depends on the source, and depending on the source it will tell you if it can be shared or not. Obtained and crafted sources cannot be shared

[tender wave]

Only if you receive the cache while in the group (and not by purchasing it, but as a reward cache)

[hard ridge]

no it wasn't that at all, because my character used a syringe on himself to revive

[small spear]

a syringe...? you sure that was you and not the CP takeover leader?

[hard ridge]

oh yeah we were taking a CP ... is that why ?

[north cloak]

Yes

[small spear]

yes if you're taking over a CP the leader can revive you

[hard ridge]

why do they give you that ?

[low flame]

Cp leader revives you but then you stick a syringe in yourself

[small spear]

quality of life i guess lol

[north cloak]

The green star person will come over and use a defibrillator and you stick yourself with probably adrenaline

[primal skiff]

What i want to say did not know about the recieving limitations as well on cach

[tender wave]

Yeah in some cases you can game it, eg if you donate resources to complete the shd donation project while someone else is in your group you can then open the exotic cache reward and share it with that person. Likewise with claiming cache rewards from league and global event reward tracks.

Of course these days everyone needs exotic components for expertise so less likely to share all their exotics like we used to

[broken smelt]

Does everything pop up on targeted loot everyday? I can't seem to find assault rifles today

[small spear]

no, when that happens play countdown, summit or anderson manhunt and adjust your own targeted loot

[broken smelt]

kk

[pulsar cosmos]

I'm having fun with this true patriot build.

Running it with Scorpio, Tardigarde and a backpack with Opportunist.

With Survivalist so it's all team support for more overall DPS.

[hard ridge]

As a "mainly" dps player. It feels soooo good to be a healer.

Makes it less boring just shooting.... and having to help your team

[primal skiff]

Heyo i need to kill 3 more enemies scorcher elite ones any tip on how to get them to spawn?

[smoky stag]

The Mast control point

[faint lichen]

Crashes are not really a thing when I play on GeForce Now.

It's peaceful

[primal skiff]

Alert lev up?

[smoky stag]

challenging or heroic if you want elites
alert 3 or 4

[earnest barn]

when is the new season coming out ?

[tender wave]

They haven't announced yet

[earnest barn]

no eta?

[old crane]

no doubt it'll be announced before if not a few days after this season ends

[brave aspen]

So, which countdown difficulty is worth matchmaking?

Are heroic doable in public mathcmaking?

[north cloak]

if you arent high enough shd, you will be kicked every time

[tender wave]

To my mind challenging is generally better: loot's about the same and although you theoretically get fewer coins you're actually more likely to successfully extract.

[silent ether]

hi just got it on steam

[celest spear]

Where do u get the sharpnel trap at

[silent ether]

should i wait on the blueprints you get on stash if you got one of the higher end editons?

sorry the weapons

or they dont scale

[primal skiff]

Ok the mast is already under friendly where else can I find elite scorchers?

[tender wave]

Coney Island Amusement Park, you need to 'toggle mission mode' at the difficulty selection menu to set it to the manhunt version of the mission

[tender wave]

They don't scale

[rancid fjord]

if i wanna hit world tier 5 i just need to do Tidal Basin?

[silent ether]

the blueprint can be used on higher tier weapons?

and waht should be my first gadget

[tender wave]

Any outcast CP3 or CP4 should do. You can also reset control points to hostile from the world difficulty settings

[tender wave]

Yes. For your first skill, it doesn't really matter that much. Crusader shield is always useful. Striker drone is fun.

[silent ether]

ig you can unlock everything and adjust builds or you are build locked

ill tkae drone

[tender wave]

Yes. You might also need to reach a certain gear score (see pinned guide in #ask-td2-community )

[tender wave]

You'll unlock everything as you play through the story and can swap them around whenever you like

[silent ether]

alright

should i open chaces now or wait

[rancid fjord]

okay ty

[tender wave]

Field proficiency caches are locked to the level you are when you receive them so always open them straight away.

[silent ether]

no talking the shop ones
like apperal

[tender wave]

Apparel isn't levelled at all

The story mode is not especially hard so there's no major reason to try and min-max your rewards or worry about making the wrong choices - it'll all work out regardless.

[silent ether]

oki just every game does it diffrently

[tender wave]

Think of the story as really long tutorial, its purpose is more to teach you the game and prepare you for endgame where the real challenge starts

[primal skiff]

Which is the DLC

I guess i will have to keep trying that rosvelt island thing everything else is done

[tender wave]

Breaking the hammer dude's armour? Use a low powered pistol, shoot the extremities first and finish with with chest piece

[primal skiff]

I am doing fire starter rn will do tech after this just need elite enemies scorchers

Did dcd on hard not a single elite spawned man unlike what reddit said

[tender wave]

Ah, so yeah do the named one in Roosevelt and then wipe before killing everyone else in that area to reset it

[primal skiff]

Gud ol mortar to my face

[oblique glacier]

does kingbreaker drop from countdown?

[tender wave]

Yes

[plain plume]

whens the reset?

[balmy cedar]

Tuesday

[oblique glacier]

so far i got none..

[hybrid ore]

Targeted Loot: Assault Rifle, you'll get one within a few runs most likely.
It's an incredibly common drop in there, I've done runs where I got 3 and I didn't even have AR Targeted.

[oblique glacier]

maybe my luck kinda of sux...

[raven elk]

can anybody help with my query about the Vendor, I can sell items from my inventory and also have the option buy them back, but my ? is, how long does he keep the items I sell him and is there a limit on how many things he will keep for me. I'm thinking of using this as storage for the things I want to keep but don't have room, is this a good idea or bad? thanks

[hybrid ore]

Bad idea, there's no guarantee he'll keep them.
There's a very high likelihood that you're keeping junk items in your Stash. Try going through everything and removing anything that can't be made perfect in a single Recal+a few Optimisations, and also keep Exotics.

[raven elk]

I am constantly getting rid of the junk and only keeping items with max attributes, I may just have to use the second character for extra storage

[hybrid ore]

Keeping all items with "max attributes" also likely means that you're keeping junk ones too. Check out the pieces, if they have one of each colour roll (yellow+red+blue), chances are you don't need that piece.

Remember: you can use the same piece in multiple builds, can save a lot of space. Also, gearset pieces are easier to refarm if you want to nuke a lot of those. Especially gearsets that a base Yellow core.

[raven elk]

yes, that's what I'm doing, I think my issue is with the Mods, I have far too many, that will free up 100 of the ones I'm not currently using

[tender wave]

yeah you shouldn't be keeping any mods in the stash at all

in the inventory they have a separate count (100 mods + 150 items) but in the stash they count towards the item limit

[raven elk]

just had the ones I don't use in there, but I've moved them to my second character now

[hybrid ore]

Since mods can't be improved in any way, just nuke any that aren't 85%+ to perfect already.

[raven elk]

will do that from now on

[tender wave]

don't need more than 3 of anything either unless for a very specific build (eg PfE or disrupt-immune or similar)

[raven elk]

I actually meant skill attachments too, lol

[tender wave]

for those just go through your skill attachment menus and make sure you don't have more than one that does the same thing

(as in, go through the menus where you actually assign mods to slots and check that way)

[raven elk]

yip, been doing that too, so I think I'm doing most things right, thanks for the advice, I will continue to be ruthless with my hoarding, lol. first thing I do is donate, then strip attributes, then deconstruct if I can't do anything else with the item

[tender wave]

personally I would prioritise filling recal library over expertise, but you'll max out both over time

[raven elk]

recal takes precedence for me if it has a max attribute I need to extract

[tender wave]

yeah tbf there's a lot of attributes that are never used in practice

[pastel breach]

Whats the best way to level my shd watch right now? New player, im like watch level 18 haha

[tender wave]

fastest general method for the moment is to do supply convoys (open world activity) on challenging or heroic with as many directives as you can manage. Personally though I'd recommend doing a mix of stuff, pursuing other goals (levelling specs, farming a decent build, filling recal library etc) and let the levelling happen in the background.

[lean wasp]

Personally I think Challenging is best difficulty as a new player (like myself) you apply as much directives as you can,and try to get Skill build

[dull bluff]

Supply convoy. Highest difficulty u can handle and as many directives. Fastest way right now. Summit farming which gave insane amount of xp was nerfed So we have to do it the regular slow way. I'm lucky if I get 10 lvl a day lol.

[violet canyon]

summit farm is still VERY viable. Just complete all of the easy challenges then reset your progress once you finish them. Also, it seems a vast majority of people still dont know that challenge objectives can be completed by other members of your party besides you. You just need to have the challenge equipped

I prefer summit over convoys

not as fast but more fun IMO

[inner elbow]

Personal opinion: nothing is more fun than having 3 players shelling on the same manhole

[covert frost]

i just saw a SHD 1067 asking in the youtube comments why he has different damage stats on weapons at the vendors

[dull bluff]

Can u summit farm solo? I mostly play alone when farming lol

No idea how summit farm worked. I started the game like a week before it got nerfed. Heard about it but never did it or knew how to do it.

[oblique glacier]

i got 4 legendary from countdown but all of it is chameleon

is there any requirement to unlock in order to gain kingbreaker

[lean wasp]

I still haven't got any exotic from countdown as an actual drop in round

but im playing challenging

[surreal orbit]

Exotic not legendary

[loud temple]

Hey fellas.

My the division 2 crash while I was showering.

[cloud sage]

Do you think the showering had something to do with it?

[loud temple]

I don't know maybe.

[loud temple]

Maybe the game is saying
"Oh he's getting a life now, time to shut it down."

[wise atlas]

Just got World Tier 5. What should I do now? Farm gear?

Better question maybe, what are two or three things I should focus on now?

[cloud sage]

Yeah, could be 😄

[loud temple]

I just rescued president ellis

He looks like a great guy!

[pallid harness]

are the drones in the first key room of DH raid the same health as the ones on razorback?

[surreal orbit]

Do you have the warlords expansion?

[wise atlas]

I do, but I've been playing with my 2 daughters and they just hit WT 1 last night. Didn't want to start that without them.

[surreal orbit]

Well since you plan on moving to level 40 at some point, just have fun till you start the expansion. All gear at WT5 will be useless once you begin leveling up to 40.

[zinc shadow]

oh boy i sure hope nothing goes catastrophically wrong (clueless)

[wise atlas]

oh nice! so I shouldn't even be worrying about getting 500-515 gearscore armor at this point?

i mean like building sets around it

[surreal orbit]

Nope

[wise atlas]

cool ty

[cloud sage]

I would maybe farm control points for blueprints to get that out of the way if you haven't already. That's about the only thing I can think of that carries over to lvl 40 that's useful that you can do now.

[surreal orbit]

Control points need to be level 3/4 for blueprints to be rewarded

[polar warren]

Just don’t do the math for how many control points you would have to do to unlock all BPs. I honestly think you’re better off targeting gear in countdown

And using the resources for optimization

[surreal orbit]

He’s WT5 bro, and heading to NYC soon…

[polar warren]

I think my point still stands ?

[surreal orbit]

And no optimization at WT5

[surreal orbit]

Why? All that farming will be a waste if he plans on leveling up to 40…

[polar warren]

Yeah that’s what I’m saying ESL.

[surreal orbit]

Huh? Wtf is ESL?

[wise atlas]

So if I do Warlords of New York, I won't be able to play with them until I complete it right, if they still haven't started the expansion?

[surreal orbit]

Correct

[wise atlas]

About how long does it take to complete? Once I complete it, and they still haven't started it, I can them rejoin them when they are still in the World Tiers?

[cloud sage]

True, but once you finish WONY or if they get to WONY soon you can still do everything alongside them, as soon as you're willing to do things twice.

[wise atlas]

oh nice, thanks

[surreal orbit]

About 4/6 hours depending

[desert crystal]

2 if you do it with some one thats allready completed it

[wise atlas]

One more question, and it may be a weird one, if they have The Division 2 on Epic Games, can I buy the expansion for them on Steam (because it's on sale there now) and connect it to their Epic/Ubisoft version?

I'm guessing they would have to have the base game on Steam.

[desert crystal]

dlc rights is tied to platform the main games brought on

[wise atlas]

so if they've been playing on Epic, but through Ubisoft, I could technically buy them the entire game on Steam and they have the same account/characters, right?

[desert crystal]

inless the dlc is brought direct from ubi

[desert crystal]

yes because it has to lauch though ubi soft anyway

[broken smelt]

til dying on heroic restarts the mission

🫥

[surreal orbit]

Always has, always will

[bitter wraith]

Why do people go into the dz just to kill when conflict is a thing?

Like genuine question?

Conflict exists?

Like they don't take the loot or anything they either ignore it or destroy it

Like bro just play conflict its better

[lusty valley]

anyone able to tell me why, when using DX12, my game is running at 1fps at the menu?

this is so fucking annoying

[surreal orbit]

Because they enjoy making your day worse by killing you and deconstructing your loot. Welcome to D2 dz fun fest!… lol

[lament mirage]

Some people just enjoy PvP n dz loot legit ain’t urs too extract it

N if u farmed hours for it n really want it protect n secure it till u extract it

[lean wasp]

that's why you run pulse and if you see someone rogue that is on killstreak just run

[desert crystal]

how is it not

[lean wasp]

In DZ that's my combo and im already lvl 26

[desert crystal]

how is it not your loot

[lament mirage]

Yep or just hang outside the dz

[lusty valley]

anyone run this game in DX12 ?

[lament mirage]

It’s up for grabs till u extract it n goes in ur stash

Hence dz

[graceful valve]

No it’s not which is why ppl PvP in the dark zone

[desert crystal]

oh so its not the same as open would then where the loot you see is yours

[bitter wraith]

Why isn't it better?

[lament mirage]

Unless it’s target loot n goes in ur inventory

[graceful valve]

And also the pve in the dark zone is horrible with garbage rewards 99% of the time

[bitter wraith]

This is my point

[surreal orbit]

Not until you put it on the rope and the helicopter flys away is it yours… lol

[lusty valley]

i find it incredble that this game still does not fucking work in DX12

[lament mirage]

Correct minus target loot which u can pick it up n go in inventory

[graceful valve]

Bc it’s team reliant, the maps suck, and u can get spawn camped pretty easily

[lament mirage]

Contanmiated loot isn’t urs till extracted through the helicopter

[bitter wraith]

I feel like there should be some form of pve dz where sad spawn campers don't exist even if the reward is reduced

[graceful valve]

There is pve but the rewards are so bad no one even goes there to farm

[bitter wraith]

Items that are dz only should be conflict only since the point of conflict is pvp

[graceful valve]

Dark zone should have been endgame with the best rewards

[bitter wraith]

Some do

[lament mirage]

Yea I usually just farm for xp

[surreal orbit]

Get used to it, or stay out of the DZ….

[bitter wraith]

I only go in with 3 other people because otherwise I'm just wasting time

[graceful valve]

The drop rate for dz exclusive loot is ridiculous

[bitter wraith]

Dz is dead to most anyway

[lament mirage]

Endgame is shit like raids n legendary content tho dz isn’t

[graceful valve]

99% of the games content rewards are horrible

[bitter wraith]

In my opinion the dz is full of sweats who would never win a 4v4 in conflict which is why they go around greifing at extractions

[surreal orbit]

Or if you want to farm, learn how to get a solo DZ server. That’s what I do to farm exotic components. Every keyed crate mine for the taking…

[bitter wraith]

Especially dz

[graceful valve]

Like why would I want to play any mission in dc or even New York which I haven’t even touched when summit or countdown is a thing

[bitter wraith]

Don't think a solo dz server is even possible on anything other than playstation

[gritty pebble]

Hey guys how good is the 1885

[lament mirage]

Cap

[bitter wraith]

How then?

[lament mirage]

I get em often on pc

[graceful valve]

I find the exclusive loot good but the rng is stupid, like increasing ur manhunt to the max should guarantee some sort of dz exclusive reward

[surreal orbit]

Ancient Chinese Secret

[bitter wraith]

Although maybe it's just xbox that doesn't have it

Is there a way to know your dz is empty?

[lament mirage]

Not really

[graceful valve]

U just have to check if any other landmarks are cleared and if anyone is nearby

[lament mirage]

People do just roam around as well n like hit all the black boxes so

[bitter wraith]

Not even vpn works on console

If you don't rewire your router

[lament mirage]

Well ur solo n don’t wanna get jumped by a 4 man or something just invite someone to ur group if u see em

[bitter wraith]

If I spammed enter/exit safe house like 8 times would that work?

[graceful valve]

I log out and in

And eventually I’ll get into new servers

[lament mirage]

Same

[bitter wraith]

That might only be PC though

I'll try it

[lament mirage]

And I’ll get a empty dz well ones that’s less populated

But I don’t mind PvP 😔 kinda part of the problem

[bitter wraith]

If I swapped out the foxes prayer with umbra kneepads then the umbra chest with fenris unbreakable that might actually be way better

[lament mirage]

I only kill tho never take the loot 🫡

[bitter wraith]

I just realised I couldn't doubled my armour this whole time 🤦‍♂️

*in the dz with a red build

[azure lintel]

try to build the division 2 pvp
and i will go conflict and i die everyday
im very good FPS player but on the division 2 always loose

[lament mirage]

Although when ravenous gets in the dz this gonna be different

[bitter wraith]

Respect 🫡

I only take the loot if they are toxic

Otherwise I leave it

[lament mirage]

Leaving loot also good for bait

😂

[bitter wraith]

True lmao

Although I don't like being a idiot to others if they did nothing wrong

[lament mirage]

Most people would just come back n get it so

[bitter wraith]

True

[lament mirage]

Another kill

Drop a decoy n just hang around

[bitter wraith]

Ngl I could boost my weapons to level 15 by farming a load of landmarks then extracting the credits and spare loot for more expertise but I'd only do this solo in a empty or mostly empty dz

Otherwise it's 4v1,2,3,4 only

[azure lintel]

is trash game on conflict

[bitter wraith]

Defender or decoy for full red?

[lament mirage]

Best expertise farm is making alts

[bitter wraith]

Not high enough shd so not worth it

[lament mirage]

I usually run decoy n defender drone n sometimes shield

[bitter wraith]

I'll probably put on unbreable and decoy

[lament mirage]

Decoy is always in my load out

[lament mirage]

Unbreakable ya

[azure lintel]

best build for pvp?

[bitter wraith]

Unbreakable op when your doing 170k+ a shot

[lament mirage]

Unless running spotter or ridgeway unbreakable bis

[bitter wraith]

It varies. IMO full red umbra OR skill build with sticky if you have good aim

[azure lintel]

full read

full red

[bitter wraith]

When running AR with umbra UB and umbra pads is op

[azure lintel]

tallents?

[lament mirage]

Checked #td2-build-advice and the pinned thingy

[bitter wraith]

For which?

[azure lintel]

i have good aim

what build for pvp?

[bitter wraith]

It's up to you there are so many different builds that even I sometimes question if I really have the best build

[lament mirage]

Ridgeway/sadist/wicked
Spotter/flatline/vigilance/concussion
Unbreakable/ad rush / optimist

[azure lintel]

picture please?

[lament mirage]

Common PvP talents

[bitter wraith]

I see people using heartbreaker and decimating me easily and I'm there like bro wtf you took no damage yet you are using an AR

Although they probably use ACS12 since I'm 98% close range only

[lament mirage]

Lemme hop on

[azure lintel]

rigdeway the vest?exotic one?

[bitter wraith]

Yes

[azure lintel]

bleed

no unbreakable?

[lament mirage]

Nah

[bitter wraith]

I honestly might scrap my HB and reform it into a pvp build

[azure lintel]

and full armor or not?

[bitter wraith]

I don't use it for pve anymore and the pvp version would be just as good

Can't wait for TU17 ngl

[graceful pond]

is there a way to localize chat in game??? or just filter out all the non-english.... seems more then 80% of the chat is chinese... tried to translate one and it was an advertisement for a leveling service....

[bitter wraith]

Average day on pc

[graceful pond]

i have added in just 10 minutes almst 50 people to my ignore list....

[bitter wraith]

Dz credits are basically useless now

I only take them if I want to extract for something else

[lean wasp]

Is the bighorn only available in Legendary mission loot?

[bitter wraith]

Yes. Legendary mission or summit assault rifle targeted loot

Got it on third attempt 2 months ago

As in its ONLY legendary

[lean wasp]

okay so i gotta do summit since there is no chance i can run legendary missions

[bitter wraith]

Yh. Spam FL10 legendary AR TL

Good luck with RNG

[lean wasp]

Ty

[bitter wraith]

Np

[lime valley]

Hey, if im interrupting i apologize but whats the best way to get the memento

Im starting fresh on pc and i am realizing idk where to get them lol

[late finch]

You can also get the Bighorn doing DU legendary.

Just got one this week

[winter radish]

countdown with targeted loot set to backpacks

[lime valley]

ah, i dont have a build for it. Im working on one but i need memento. Also no frens :(

[plush otter]

it has to be legendary summit, before you think its any diff, and legendary summit is usually harder than just the legendaries, also TL doesnt matter, it can only drop from final named bosses on each bossfloor, it cant drop from TL

[winter radish]

Check the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice and put together a Heartbreaker, Striker, Hunter's Fury or standard red DPS build. The first 3 are a little easier and quicker to farm since they're gearsets, but all of them will work fine in open world and CD.

[idle sparrow]

Anyone know where to get the laser sight for a assault rifle? Specifically (police m4)?

[lime valley]

the heartbreaker setup i want to run is a hybrid skill dps build, using the memento. idk about strikers though. and will they work well solo?

im like starting totally fresh i just finished warlords of new york lol

[surreal orbit]

Technician spec

[lime valley]

imma make a strikers build, i havent really touched it

[toxic flume]

TU17 is almost here

[winter radish]

Yes, they will. As I said, just check the pinned spreadsheet and if you want to deviate from that later on, that's up to you, but it's highly recommended to at least have one "proper" DPS build for CD since lobbies tend to kick low-SHD players. Even more so if they don't have a decent build to carry their own weight.

[lime valley]

Aw countdown isnt solo? That sucks

[winter radish]

no, it's an 8-man activity

[azure lintel]

catharsis mask loot please?

[lime valley]

Oof

[toxic flume]

You can start countdown solo. IT’s recommended to do it at a easier difficulty

[cloud sage]

It's a farcical 8-man loot pinata activity, it's fun to partake.

[lime valley]

for exotic farming?

[lime valley]

I prefer playing solo. I dont like being yelled at for not having a mic and stuff

[faint lichen]

Just shot some drunk and got a Rudolph sniper.. was not expecting that

[cloud sage]

Well, the amount of loot that drops there is absolutely ridiculous so even if you don't like playing alongside others, check it out. And it's rare to get yelled at.

Just follow the others and sort of do what they do, kill stuff.

[lime valley]

imma put a build together then

im at like.. shd 4 on pc lmao

[cloud sage]

Also, most won't use mic so it's also rare to hear someone use voice. Just the occasional call out for what objective to go for.

[lime valley]

idk i never played countdown

i tried once with my brother and the timed objectives were too hard for us to do

[unique hull]

Anyone know where the snitch is?

[grand swan]

Idk but i think he's like into certain sewers and in the map corners

Or maybe near control points i've already seen him into a hidden place near a control point

I don't exactly know where this control point is but it look's like a bit of the white house but not actually

[fervent jacinth]

When the hell are we getting that spec revamp

[lime valley]

Theres a map with live updates for snitch locations. Look up snitch location and your current date

[plush otter]

go to the bottom of this site, and there is a short guide and a map of some of the snitch spawn locations, he has no set location, everytime you get near one of those spots there is a chance for him to spawn.
https://rubenalamina.mx/the-division-weekly-vendor-reset/

[fiery lily]

Really looking forward to jumping back into the Division. Is it safe to assume the playerbase is a bit larger on PC?

[timber hatch]

There's just been a huge influx of new players on PC

[gritty pebble]

Yea I be one of them

[violet canyon]

nah, i think its still the majority of people are on console

[toxic flume]

Steam have constant 5-7k players daily

[toxic flume]

Majority yes like always for every game there is

[wise atlas]

can you just skip going from WT 1 to 5 and go straight to Warlords of New York and get 40?

[normal magnet]

You skip to level 30 but yes

[wise atlas]

skip to level 30?

we're WT 1 now

[normal magnet]

Yeah if you’ve bought warlord you can make a new character that’s level 30

Or I think boost a current character

[wise atlas]

that isn't what I'm asking.. I'm asking if we're already World Tier 1, and we start Warlords, do we ever have to do the Tier 1 through 5 progression still?

[balmy cedar]

No

[normal magnet]

Ohh sorry

[balmy cedar]

Once you skip it can only be replayed on another character

[wise atlas]

cool, so we can go to warlords and completely skip that

are there disadvantages to skipping it?

[balmy cedar]

My recommendation is boost another character and go to NY it’s the same effect

[toxic flume]

If you care about your commendation/in-game achievements then yes, I rather play main story line. Other than that you can just skip to warlords

If you want to learn about division 2 main storyline, just continue WTs

[dark junco]

I am only getting 50% completino after killing all the Lts, where do I get the other 50%?

For the Manhunt

[surreal orbit]

Map, bounties tab, yellow icons in the same districts as all the other stuff

[dark junco]

ya i finished everything in the 4 areas

[surreal orbit]

Read it again

You have not finished the final bounties

[dark junco]

#unofficial-troubleshooting message

I finished all of them - with images of each one

Unless game wants me to kill them a 2nd time

[surreal orbit]

They’re pictures are not crossed out, thus you have not killed trig, micro, etc. open map, go to bounties tab, look for yellow icons

[dark junco]

great so it bugged out and i have to do it again

oh well thanks

[surreal orbit]

No just follow directions

[plush otter]

just also to add, just incase, that wt1-wt5 isnt the same missions you have already done, its the same locations, slightly altered, but against a new faction, with some new story, so worth it if you like the story/lore parts

[plain trail]

it didn't bug out

[dark junco]

no as in i literally did all 4 just now grand washington for chiirpy

but i did it in match making

[plain trail]

you need to unlock them

did you complete the story questline

in your own base

if you do them in matchmaking without completing the story questline you dont get completion

[surreal orbit]

Did you complete all the other activities or just join someone for the final targets

[idle sparrow]

Where do you collect intel for the manhunt for general Anderson?

Can’t find the intel for any of the 4 mini bosses

[brittle goblet]

I'm at the expertise table and I was told to donate gear to raise it. But the only option I have is to donate all junk and every time I do nothing happens?

[surreal orbit]

See guide in #contest-winners

[brittle goblet]

The first part of the guide explains how to donate all junk but again when I do it it dosent work

[tender wave]

First: be level 40 & finish the dlc. Next, head to white house and follow quest markers (up to manny's room for a cutscene, then down to the basement, talk to kelso, activate computer, stay in basement until audio file is finished). Then look at your map and go do all the stuff with yellow icons.

[idle sparrow]

Weirdly enough, I did that but it didn’t show me there quest mark to him.

[surreal orbit]

Did all the junk disappear from your inventory?

[brittle goblet]

no sir

[tender wave]

you can only donate exotic/high-end/gearset items, not purple or lower

and only if the relevant item types are not already proficient

[surreal orbit]

Do you have them marked as junk?

[dense void]

Hey folks, new player here. Just purchased the expansion - do I need to buy the year 1 pass?

[brittle goblet]

Yes, they are

is there a way to donate one at a time to see if that works?

[surreal orbit]

Are they gold high ends or exotic

[brittle goblet]

they are the green gear set items

[tender wave]

nope. Just unlocks some exclusive one-off missions, some skins, and saves you having to do a bunch of tasks to unlock half the specialisations

[tender wave]

yeah, find the gearset in the table, enter that submenu and it should show you potential donations

[surreal orbit]

Then go to those items in the list and try to donate individually

[brittle goblet]

there is now donate option when i select them individually

[tender wave]

you prob need to record a video so we can see

[dense void]

@tender wave Thank you! :3

[graceful pond]

why is it no one uses match make but if i call for backup in free roam people show up >.>

[wintry chasm]

probably because isac announces it or that nobody else is matchmaking for something specific

[surreal orbit]

Current level? Or difficulty of activity?

[brave aspen]

Did anyone tried Hotshot in Countdown during the PTS?

Like, could it one-tap the hunters? 😂

[tender wave]

I doubt the extreme damage build-up technique would successfully carry across into Countdown due to the server change. Haven't heard anyone mention it, anyway

[hard ridge]

Damn this targeted loot system is both great and kind of ruins the whole grinding for loot thing. I got my whole set in a matter of matches.

[graceful pond]

targeted loot??? I can set what i want to find? O.o

[small edge]

in certain areas yeah

such as summit

[hard ridge]

yes, in the summit

[graceful pond]

its been a no go on matchmaking from the start of the game.... i just hit world tier 3 yesterday and have yet to get into a single match made mission... always have to freaking call for backup and then refuse to endorse until the end of the mission, cause the minute i do endorse people leave <.<

[hard ridge]

just wish the summit was more diverse, you fight to floor 100 and there's only a handful of location "looks"

[graceful pond]

ahhh i cant do summit yet i dont think... i cant even do expeditions....

[small edge]

most of the stuff you want to grind for is attributes and rolls on exotics imo

[graceful pond]

i dont really care what i get, since i instantly change its appearance to Providence visuals lol

i wish they would make a Survival expansion for Division 2..... seems like Div 1 got 3 expansions and this game only got 1.... plus a few other things v.v

[small edge]

asking for a lot

part of the current game isnt able to be played by some, if not all

[hard ridge]

I just wish they kept the game modes from div1 in div2, since they were pretty much all good... so why remove content ?

[narrow chasm]

Yo! I have quick question if I'm tryin to Drop for example some Exotic Wep and I'm focus on Targeted Loot in Open World how many % to Drop I have?

[small edge]

i can send you to photo they posted

[narrow chasm]

Yes be so kind please

It's not so much xD

[graceful pond]

yeah... I played the hell out of Survival.... best game mode ever!

[hard ridge]

yeah I heard everyone saying that, but everytime I tried it I was stuck in an infinite queue, so never got to play it

[graceful pond]

really???

[hard ridge]

really

[graceful pond]

dude... that shit was fucking great... i never had issues getting into a game tho

if I had the game on PC, id do it with ya 😄 but i had it on xbox...

which, i got rid of my Series S and simply bought a gaming laptop XD

[small edge]

understandable

not very many exclusives on Xbox anymore

[hard ridge]

well the funny thing is ... I was constantly in groups, low level, high level, endgame, dark zone ... doesn't matter (not like in div2 lol) .... which means people were playing the 💩 out of it... but ... for some reason always got infinite queue in survival

[graceful pond]

I got away from Playstation cause sony ripped me off of over $500 claiming i made purchases in the store, that i never made, and refused to refund my money, when i called my bank and initiated a charge back, they banned my account >.> can atleast say i have never had that happen on xbox lol

[surreal orbit]

Your level is too low for matchmaking, not many down there honestly. Your also doing story mode difficulty which is not going to get many takers. At level 40, you can really only matchmake for challenging+ missions, but better odds on heroic and legendary.

[cloud sage]

There we go, finally SHD level 1000. Fairly quick march though considering I started out with the WONY dlc about 4 weeks ago.

[small edge]

everyone is at wt5

[graceful pond]

i dont have that unlocked and im not on story any more XD im on "normal" yet, still get no one through match make

[small edge]

matchmake on heroic or legendary

wt5

[graceful pond]

i cant.... im stuck on T3 i think... yeah, T3, i got one more mission to do, then do ros stronghold then i can do tidel basin, problem is, no one does match make XD

[surreal orbit]

Just solo it, it’s easy

[stoic stratus]

Yeah, solo it.

[small edge]

or buy WoNY and skip

[graceful pond]

your talking to a guy who never even got passed "story" for the very first raid..... and i have WONY but i refuse to skip content lol I bought the game to play it, not skip it hahahaha

[surreal orbit]

Then your gonna be there a while I guess

[small edge]

u arent missing much if you've already beat the normal game

skip will take you directly to WoNY content

[graceful pond]

im patient.... ill just wait until I unlock it normally 😄

[tender wave]

if you were trying to matchmake for the raids, that's normal - raids need a team of people who know what they're doing and can communicate clearly - matchmade ones fail more often than not (which is why you can't matchmake for the 'Normal' difficulty ones)

[small edge]

i think hes talking about strongholds

[graceful pond]

not raids, im talking about the stronghold stuff soi can reach t5 XD

[plain trail]

Raids seem like a giga waste of dev time

Esp since so few people end up doing them

[balmy cedar]

Wait they for real did that? I’ve always been hesitant about digital games for this reason - the banning

[graceful pond]

yeah, they banned my shit, this happened on ps3 during the "heart bleed" incident when they got hacked and claimed no ones accounts was tampered with

i aint the only one it happened to either

[balmy cedar]

Oh I’ve only been on PS since the ps4 slim was released

Only 2 issues I had is if you’re under 18 they permanently lock your account as one needing guardianship even when you turn 18 - can’t play higher level maturity ratings

Constant ddos on games like red dead and gta v

[graceful pond]

o.O never had issues with playing games lol

i still play RDR and GTA on pc 😄

[balmy cedar]

You a grinder or casual player?

Used to grind both… the secondary currency in red dead in the form of gold threw me off and gta got stale with the mk 2

[graceful pond]

i play just to have fun lol

also the MK2 is prettu useless now on GTA lol

they weakened the rockets and mae it so you can only have 20 rockets

[stoic stratus]

Cola.

[stoic stratus]

I am so glad they nerfed it

[graceful pond]

same

[stoic stratus]

Even though i don't play the game anymore.

Only Watch_Dogs 1 and The Division 2.

[balmy cedar]

Is watch dogs similar to division

[desert crystal]

no

[stoic stratus]

Nope.

But damn imagine a dude cosplaying as Aiden Pearce in The Division 1 or 2, using only a pistol.

[kind pulsar]

What scares me about this is that Ubisoft has multiverses, so it would technically be possible to have to fight a crazy Hunter wearing a Rabbids! mask

[graceful pond]

Watch Dogs if i had to say what its similar to, id say its more closer to Splinter Cell....

[neat sedge]

decided to redo my boosted characters so the login screen doesn't show boosted anymore

turns out you can have maxed level 40 skill mods on your skills at any point, including when your level 4

[graceful pond]

nice

[stoic stratus]

NAH

I WANT TO DO SUCH THING LIKE THAT!

[opal bluff]

should i do world tier 1 first or can i just jump straight into warlords of NY?

[brittle goblet]

Is there any way to cheese the expertise system or be really efficient in getting everything up fast ?

[graceful pond]

you can jump right into WONY but, you end up missing content

[opal bluff]

like? just the black tusk content or things like side missions too?

[knotty quail]

Ehh, not really?

Side missions which you can do after Wony

If you care about the story, do the Coney Island missions and then go to NY

[rancid sphinx]

you can jump to new york and when you get back to DC you still have to complete all story missions before it will open up other difficulties.

[opal bluff]

so world tier 5 then NY

[rancid sphinx]

i think you get your specialization weapon at WT3. i would say yeah WT5, then NY

[opal bluff]

don't you unlock spec weapons at WT1?

[surreal orbit]

Yes

[surreal orbit]

And if you “jump” to NYC before getting to WT5, everything gets completed for you. Main missions, side missions, everything. So you would not get to complete the story. Plus you lose access to certain trophies if your interested in platinum.

[prisma moss]

can someone help me ? Im a new player , i started to playing the division for a few days and i dont speak much english

[odd glacier]

anyone know how long there is left on current season? is it worth trying to grind out levels on the current season?

[wheat zinc]

Timer shows a week and a day left

[vivid swift]

how can i get maxed mods

[lyric spoke]

Hey yo, my game keeps crashing whenever I try to leave New York, I don't want to stay banished to New York How do I fix this issue 😭

[surreal orbit]

Farm, lots, and pray to RNGeesus….

[vivid swift]

lmao i have

on countdown and its even on heroic

[surreal orbit]

Then your on the right track

[vivid swift]

i know i am just getting back stuff

ive done wayyyyyyy to many countdown and never got a exotic 🤣

ive lost count

[surreal orbit]

You haven’t purchased any exotic caches with the currency you pick up from countdown?

[vivid swift]

i have but that dont count 🤣

honest tryna find a guy who would farm anderson

to get exotics

[surreal orbit]

You can solo it on normal. It rewards exotic on any difficulty.

[vivid swift]

i know its boring doing it solo

lmao

[foggy trail]

hello can someone plz help with with friend referral program on PC
i am a division 1 veteran who just started playing division 2 with new steam release and i would really appreciate a gamer to use my link and play 3 missions together or maybe even more since i dont have that many friends in division 2;
plz send me a dm if u can help me get that hunter outfit

[frozen meadow]

#td2-friend-referral

@foggy trail

[balmy cedar]

Now I’m curious if you can mod a gun with attachments from another character and send it over to your character without doing side missions / having bp

[foggy trail]

yea i figured

[frozen meadow]

Not like they're useful in any way

[frozen meadow]

Probably not, I'd think it removes the attachments right as you put it on

Or add it to the new chars inv

[neat sedge]

eh better then the 0.1% shield health mods you get at regular levels

[surreal orbit]

Nope

[stoic stratus]

I just encountered two clans teaming with each other on DZ East, 4 of each, farming together

How crazy.

[low flame]

Happens sometimes, saw it a few times myself and farmed with them

[tender wave]

try resetting your manhunt progress (map menu, manhunt tab)

[oak prawn]

Aaa yes the wild agents quite an interesting species

They usually hunt in packs

[stoic stratus]

Indeed, i wanted to go rogue but i said — "nah it'll be a waste of their time."

[oak prawn]

They like to corner thier pray

There usually found in the invaded DZ

[oak prawn]

8 wild agents against 1 rogue yea you did the right decision

[stoic stratus]

Not the right decision!

[Bullets Zooming everywhere]

[oak prawn]

No matter how good your build is how skilled you 1 rogue ain't taking on 8 agents at once

[stoic stratus]

It'll be like triggering a beehive!

[oak prawn]

The only way your winning thst fight is with cheats

[stoic stratus]

Nah...

More men.

:)

[oak prawn]

The way I see it they bring a gun you bring a bigger gun

They have a gun you bring ur friends with even bigger guns

[quartz monolith]

When is the division 2 on sale until?

[dull bluff]

Need some help here. Only last target left before Anderson. Need 3/4 control point to get chirpy bounty but I can't find the control point. Its supposed to be yellow right? There aren't any. And doing regular red controlvpoint doesn't count.

[surreal orbit]

There is a side mission just north of the safe house that will open the last control point.

[dull bluff]

Ooooh. Thanks

[dull bluff]

Safe house in that zone? Not seeing anythjng.

[lyric spoke]

Thank you. I'll try this

[upbeat quartz]

hhhhhhHHHHOLY FFUUUuuuucckk my game has crashed like 5 times in the past hour

[cloud sage]

I'm assuming you already limit EAC core use to only one everytime you fire up the game?

[upbeat quartz]

i did that last time it crashed

[cloud sage]

Alright, hmm. Yeah I have had the odd crash once in a while even though I've done that but it's rare.

[upbeat quartz]

ive also done the thing described here https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/uwzv6n/div_2_crash_fix_stopped_interacting_with_windows/

[cloud sage]

I had frequent crashes after returning to the game about 4 weeks ago and the only two things I've done is the EAC-thing and also one other. Let me see if I can describe that other thing in a good way.

So, in the folder where I have The Division 2 installed I did this for the three exe files EACLaunch, TheDivision2 and thedivision2launcher that are in there:

Right click each exe file > compatibility tab > make sure "inactivate fullscreen optimization" is ticked > click the button just below there that says "change settings for high DPI" > in the window that opens up tick "disregard high DPI-scaling"

I almost never crash now, not even in Countdown. Could be pure luck and some other factors too with my system, I don't know but worth trying.

Also, it might be worded a bit differently. I translated freely from my Swedish Windows installation.

Oh right, for in-game settings I use DX 11 and windowed borderless. I also lowered the max fps to 120 even though I have a 240 Hz monitor.

[celest prairie]

when can we get anna isac

[upbeat quartz]

alright, ill give these a try ahaha

[cloud sage]

Good luck man! I hope it works 🙏

[upbeat quartz]

ill do it tomorrow
gonna sleep now
ill say if it works after a few days

[cloud sage]

I really feel for you and others that have crash issues. Few things sucks so bad when you are a gamer like having a game crash on you. After a while you almost develop PTSD, feeling like it can happen any second while you play and you can't enjoy anything.

Alright, sleep well and yeah. I really hope it works.

[dull bluff]

How many raid exclusive exotics are there?

Trying to get all the online exclusive stuff collected in next 3 months before my ps plus expires lol.

[tropic matrix]

lmao

[smoky stag]

3

at the moment

[dull bluff]

Thanks.

[pulsar cosmos]

Occasionally the game just doesn't work

[low flame]

In tu17 there will be only one raid exclusive (regulus) from what devs plan to add as eagle bearer and ravenous will be able to drop in the dark zone

[tropic matrix]

oh really? nice

[low flame]

The only advantage from that I see is not needing to find 7 other people. With the raids you get a higher drop chance and you don’t have to pvp if you don’t want to, and the dark zone comes with the risk of someone stealing the exotic

[tropic matrix]

true that

i should probably learn those raids

[dull bluff]

How many activities contain exclusive stuff ? Raid has exclusive exotics. Dz has exclusive stuff too. Anything else? Or just those two.

[frozen meadow]

drop chance will be stupendously low. if they keep the same drop chance in the raid, itll be somewhere around 0.03%

[surreal orbit]

Legendary strongholds / summit for bighorn exotic

[dull bluff]

Thanks

[north cloak]

And ridgeways

[surreal orbit]

Well that’s just a quest, can be done on normal

[north cloak]

I suppose my message better fits the first question

[dull bluff]

Thanks guys. Gonna hunt down all them exclusives. Something to grind towards lol.

[hollow crown]

Are there any things in playing with randoms that are specific to td2? Like things to do and things not to do when playing with randoms?

[surreal orbit]

Still wouldn’t call it “exclusive” since all the parts are a guaranteed drop. The hardest part is probably finding a zero f’s for the project… then just complete floor 100 and done…

[north cloak]

And the hunters, rogue agents

[surreal orbit]

Those are pretty easy as well tbh…

[plush otter]

added to that that the exclusives stay exclusive to their source, they dont go general loot pool after getting them once, that is jsut as much the reason to call them exclusives alongside where they drop

[surreal orbit]

☝️

[north cloak]

Very true, I just wanted to let them know that ridgeways requires summit at some point

[dull bluff]

Is there a "the" build that can do most/all stuff in the game.

Can solo legendary/countdown, clear heroic easily etc etc.

[smoky stag]

negotiators dilemma AR build

[dull bluff]

Like I just want to get a build maybe God roll it or expertise it eventuslly.

But just make one build and stop worrying about getting more builds and just play the game.

[dull bluff]

This can do most stuff?

[smoky stag]

Solo Legendary
Raids
Countdown

[dull bluff]

Wow thanks imma go make it

[frozen meadow]

expertise ooooooooof

[astral jacinth]

Just remember: the build is just the tool to take you there, but to complete the journey, one must master their own capabilities to unlock the full potential of a gear set like negotiators.

[frozen meadow]

aka dont be shit

[lean wasp]

Does anyone know a yt channel who is good at explaining Iron Horse raid?

[surreal orbit]

There is a guide in #contest-winners

[lean wasp]

It doesn't seem to be guide just spreadsheet a vague one

[balmy cedar]

You can look at gcrock on YouTube he has guides, I find them to be useful, his content is not as clickbaity as others and is more about community engagement

[dull bluff]

Anyone have any advice on negotiator build.

Looking for bids on youtube but they all seem different.

Too noob to know how to make my own lol.

[plush otter]

read my response in this reddit post, the top 2 links in my response are the general use red ND ones
https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/10j0xqs/how_do_you_run_negotiators/

and also the build guide for ND can be handy to read trough, over in #td2-build-advice , in the hub tab of the pinned spreadsheet

[dull bluff]

Thank you very much

[hollow crown]

Any steam deck users here?

[cinder wave]

if i boost my char do i unlock everything pre 30 or should i do the grind 1-30?

[azure lintel]

Can someone help me udnertsand "world level" ???

someoen told me to farm world level before gear

i have no idea what that menas and cant find it anywere

[lean wasp]

Basicly when you finish the base game you will be lvl 30 with like tier 1 level

and when you reach 5 then you gear youself

[azure lintel]

i cant fidn that information (wich level im at) ANYWERE

[lean wasp]

do you have like a number there 300 or so

there are four World Tiers in The Division 2 with a fifth on the way. World Tiers are grouped by Gear Score with Tier 1 capped at 300, Tier 2 at 350, Tier 3 at 400, and Tier 4 at 450. Any gear that drops while you're in one of these tiers can only go up to its own tier cap.

[azure lintel]

i dont see any Gearscore anywere

[smoky stag]

do you have any plans of playing the DLC?

[azure lintel]

my game says "lvl40"

thats all it says

[lean wasp]

then you dont have world tiers

if you own expansion

[smoky stag]

he means youve gone PAST world tiers

[azure lintel]

omg . .thsi game is waaay too confusing for me 😦

im just ... wow .. so i have to replay the game 5x now ?

[smoky stag]

so you already finished that part

[azure lintel]

if so .. i rather shoot myself in the face

[smoky stag]

no. you only do that before WONY or if you dont plan to buy wony

[azure lintel]

OUH .. so if im lvl 40 there are no World Tiers ?

[smoky stag]

if u already done with wony then dont worry about it

[cloud sage]

If you're lvl 40 it means you have the Warlords of New York expansion.

[smoky stag]

no. soon as you hit 40,its shd levels moving forward

[azure lintel]

OUH thats why someoen told me im world tier 1

Cause my SHD is 1

[smoky stag]

that person was an idiot

[cloud sage]

Yeah that's it. You reached "end game".

[azure lintel]

OUH .. thanks everyone .. so i can far mgear ?

no need to do anythign else ?

[lean wasp]

If you own expansion your world tier levels are *SHD levels,which you can grind into oblivion

[azure lintel]

But the gear i find doesnt get outdated anymore .. right ?

[cloud sage]

Yeah, all gear you get from now on is as high as it can be so just keep farming for as good/perfect rolls as possible and look into how optimization and recalibration works.

[smoky stag]

nope

[cloud sage]

Quite right.

[azure lintel]

OMG thanks ... i swaer i almost had an heart attack -.-

thank you soo much

[cloud sage]

Np, you can relax 🙂

[azure lintel]

thank god 😂

[pliant karma]

how good is Bullet King LMG?

[cloud sage]

It's great if you ask me, I use it as primary.

[pliant karma]

cool, how do u get it

I primary LMG and ARs

[cloud sage]

I use a negotiators dilemma build with the backpack so it's 3 enemies you can tag with crit hits and do 100% dmg to them all simultaneously. It's awesome when there's multiple bullet sponge enemies and/or some enemies duck behind cover.

I just got it from an exotic cache.

[pliant karma]

how do u get an exotic chace

[cloud sage]

But you can also get it as random drop from any enemy.

There's a few ways. You can farm Countdown and use the currency you get from that to exchange for exotic caches. Or you can farm the last Anderson manhunt mission (on any difficulty), you always get an exotic cache at the end.

[lean wasp]

Or you can go like me and try to complete Iron Horse lol

[pliant karma]

time to complete WONY

[thick zephyr]

With div 2 on steam, recently noticed an influx of low level players roaming the DZ.
Refreshing when the DZ used to be empty before that.
Also,fresh meat.....

[pliant karma]

lol

[lean wasp]

Very bad new player experience is DZ

A lot of cheaters...like a lot

[thick zephyr]

What cheats did you see?

[lean wasp]

I was getting killed from one part of the map to another

multiple times,but that's all I saw

Other then that,I like "bonding" with people and taking out Landmarks until some overgeared guy comes in and Dominos us all

[surreal orbit]

Welcome to D2 DZ!… lol

[azure lintel]

Thats why i NEVER paly pvp in any game ... cause i just die .. die .. die ..die .. and then want to die IRL 😂

[lean wasp]

yeah...gotta start working towards Regulus after I wake up - Its probably gonna be a hell and back

[crude cave]

...what's with the amount of sub-SHD 50 players with no coherent builds and/or sub-level 40 gear matchmaking for legendary lately? like, not to gatekeep, but shouldn't people at least spend one or two days at endgame first before jumping into legendary?

[lean wasp]

New players I would imagine,im almost 150 now and I can hardly take on Heroics

[crude cave]

it's not the low shd level i mind, it's the outright lacking any build consistency/empty mod slots/lacking level 40 gear in all slots that just makes me think these people really should be doing something else first before doing legendary

[thick zephyr]

https://tenor.com/view/pedro-monkey-puppet-meme-awkward-gif-15268759

[lean wasp]

Game is super overwhelming it will take time for newer players to understand stuff but also there will be leeches

[dull bluff]

Anyone know how to get pristine example. Trying to get it for nd build

[cloud sage]

I would just set Arialdi to targetted loot and farm Countdown.

[lean wasp]

Got it from countdown today

[dull bluff]

Ooh its that easy to get ? It drops?

[cloud sage]

Yeah, after a few runs you'll probably have at least one.

[lean wasp]

Idk you will get it eventually

Or go target it

[dull bluff]

Oh yah ill do that. Been doing countdown for nd. Got all the nd pieces with decent rolls.

Sorry for the many questions but what weapons should I use for ar nd? What primary and secondary and if sidearm matters. Ty

[coral musk]

my game just crashed 5 feet from the extraction zone in the anderson manhunt

impeccable timing 🤣

[balmy cedar]

You have two options really, high rpm and high burst damage or slow rpm and more damage

[cloud sage]

I use ND with Bullet King and Baker's Dozen.

[balmy cedar]

Personally I’d go with something like an ACR because a famas just eats bullets

Strained is a good option to recover chd lost by stacking crit chance all over the build

A police m4 might be a great all rounder or the p416

The chest talent you could use focus and have a scope

Sidearm you can run tdi kard custom but if you don’t have that any gun with finisher talent would work

[cloud sage]

Or Bullet King. Spray and pray and paint enemies red all day long, three at a time with 100% dmg with the ND backpack. It's just too good 🙂

[balmy cedar]

Can’t deny that

You don’t even have to aim which means you could run glass cannon 😂

[cloud sage]

Yeah, that's what I do. My only lifeline is Unbreakable on the chest 😄

[smoky stag]

Famas with Fast Hands + scorpio
those are the the 2 you should have.
gunner spec

[dull bluff]

Wow
Scorpio my favorite gun and I was gonna ask what spec. Tyvm

[smoky stag]

go to #td2-build-advice il post the screencaps
copy the build as shown

[smoky stag]

doesnt matter. pick one and discard the other

[left patio]

Anyone know what the advanced next level is?

[novel lodge]

Anyone know if you can get chameleon from Anderson mission?

Thanks.

[celest prairie]

Pcik ar as your target loot and if its drop exotic its should be ar

And well yea i suggest go farm count down and select AR as target loot and pray to ubi god to give u a exotic

[vague palm]

new to d2 does the drop gear stats improve with difficulty?

[vapid crypt]

ye

[vague palm]

thx

[thorny talon]

thats been since 2 yrs dz is worst dont venture in it unless u are bored and have a good meta build
