[vocal jasper]

hi team 😄 anyone get the exotic sniper (from mh quest bug) on the stash?

[thorny talon]

which one nemesis>?

[vocal jasper]

no no the red and white (i forgot the name dr evil xD?)

[thorny talon]

oh that one wha happened should drop when u kill the final boss

[vocal jasper]

yeah i cant pick it and the game pops mi to white house jajaj and see you drop xD

[thorny talon]

farm again thats the only way and this time make sure ur inventory has enugh space

[vocal jasper]

i farm it and onli get trash exotics 😦 but on 1 post sais the ubi get the drop to all players and 1 months later none (sorry mi ingles is crap xD)

[thorny talon]

thats classic ubisoft and co for you. maybe try contacting ubi support and blast them xD

the exotic is poo poo anyway u aint missing much

[vocal jasper]

jajaj ubi suport reading mi msj : hmm ok ok next

🥲

[spiral crane]

When is the next season coming out?

[crude cave]

few weeks

the next patch was up on PTS a few weeks ago so early feb is probably a safe bet

[graceful warren]

Hello So I joined this clan and only 10 members in it and everyone have been inactive past 90 days I'm the only one active and I joined an hour ago so dose leadership go to me now or i have Wait? I really like the game don't mind if I get leadership 😅

[paper phoenix]

Just do missions and what not and the game will eventually auto-promote you after a day or two

[dull bluff]

Wow 5 countdown later finally got pristine example. Got me pining for it more than an exotic lol

Does famas have an 8x scope. I'm only seeing 4x and 12x. Maybe I haven't unlocked it?

[pliant karma]

does anyonw have a guide for all the exotics and how to get them?

[quasi saffron]

How to repot to ubisoft for help?

[stoic stratus]

Oh god-

5 am moments.

[dull bluff]

Pretty long road. I'd focus on ones you specifically need. And even then getting it to drop might take lot of luck. You can spam countdown and buy exotic cache and open it up hoping u get what u want excluding stuff like raid and dz exclusive one.

Doing the Anderson manhunt on normal over and over is ez too. Exotic cache each time. Do it on lowest diff.

[pliant karma]

how do u do that manhunt?

[stoic stratus]

You need WoNY Expansion.

If i am not wrong..

[quasi saffron]

And also clear bounty

[pliant karma]

I got WONY tho I'm doing the story rn

got 2/5 dead

[pliant karma]

which bounty

[quasi saffron]

In dc I think hold on

[dull bluff]

The wony manhunt is part of story

The one u gotta do is seasonal manhunt.

I think need to best wony first to unlock season?

[tender wave]

See pinned messages in #unofficial-troubleshooting

[quasi saffron]

thanks

[graceful warren]

Can you change clan name?

[fiery cloud]

@dull bluff you are correct

[devout crown]

Heartbreaker or Striker for DPS which do ya'll prefer

[tender wave]

Personally I prefer negotiators, no need to stack. Striker is higher dps than HB though.

[devout crown]

tyty

[lunar nimbus]

What WT to play Count Down?

[plush otter]

countdown is for lvl 40's, and at lvl 40 there are no world tiers

there are ways of bugging into countdown at 30, but you shouldnt as its putting your team at a great disadvantage, as you are basically a full carry

[lunar nimbus]

How do you get to lvl 40? I just finished the main story ( Capitol True Sons mission ) and now clearing Black Tusk from Grand Washington Hotel

[pliant karma]

What's better to get, Bullet King or Pestilence

[pliant karma]

Warlords of New York expansion

[upbeat quartz]

yoo i did not know rogue agents can spawn IN A MISSION
i just got absolutely clapped by two rogue agents during invaded capitol lmao

[inner harness]

It doesn't reset the mission thankfully

It treats it like a boss

[upbeat quartz]

yeah i was very pleasantly surprised when it wasnt oh heres 2 rogue agents AND all the other enemies you wouldve normally fought

still got full on clapped tho

[inner harness]

It gives you the amount of members + 1 rogues

So in a full squad you got 5 lmao

[upbeat quartz]

but im running a build very much tailored to one shot pumping reds and 1-2 shot pumping purples

[inner harness]

So a good dps?

[upbeat quartz]

no, a high armor shotgun+shield build actually haha

[inner harness]

So a bad dps

Since its a hybrid

How much you doing per pellet?

With a crit

[upbeat quartz]

uhh, how do i find out?

[inner harness]

Look at the hitmarkers

[lunar nimbus]

Should I complete WONY first or clear Black Tusk first?

[inner harness]

Black tusk

[upbeat quartz]

black tusk first, wony completes all world tiers

automatically

[upbeat quartz]

170k

[lunar nimbus]

wait Doesn't that makes it better? I don't have to clear Black Tusk

[quick tendon]

o7 Morning! (ugh)
At work, and thinking of how much I need to do, in order to finish out the S10. Think I have about 25 levels left. sigh

[inner harness]

With a crit!

[upbeat quartz]

yup

[inner harness]

That's really bad dude

[upbeat quartz]

i mean, youd miss out on story stuff

[inner harness]

Jesus christ

Wait are u lvl 30

[glossy trail]

Hi everyone. Is there any news about TU 17??

[inner harness]

Yep everywhere

[upbeat quartz]

🤷 its enough to oneshot reds consistently, 1-3 shot purples, and sometimes 2 shot low armor elites if i'm lucky and hit those meatshots
and it's fun. i'm just playing casually

[inner harness]

2 new exotics a new brand and gear set and 2 new named items with a new talent

[upbeat quartz]

and i'm relatively freshly level 40

shd 12 now

[inner harness]

Dude no offence I fully understand playing for fun but it really isn't an option for most things

[upbeat quartz]

so far its been a breeze 🤷

[inner harness]

What difficulty?

[upbeat quartz]

right now i'm playing on hard

for soloing

[inner harness]

Because you'll probably struggle with heroics and legendary missions and raids are completely off the table with that damage

BTW a high armour dps is called a hybrid build

[upbeat quartz]

nobody really plays tanks in coop then or something?

[inner harness]

That isn't a tank

Tanks focus entirely on shield health

Normally

[upbeat quartz]

yeah i have been for the most part

right now i have some red marks in gear that i intend to replace with blues

[inner harness]

Over 2 mil base armour and like 20 mil shield hp

[upbeat quartz]

but i'm gonna look more into good/viable builds when im gonna get into raiding/heroics to see if there's 1 i enjoy

[inner harness]

Also tanks are useless besides like 3 scenarios in iron horse

[upbeat quartz]

wtf how

[quick tendon]

Slowly getting my Library filled out, got a HW setup (until I get the proper HE stuff kitted). Got Eclipse, and lucky Vile drop but no Scorp yet 😦 sigh And I need to get better at aiming with Sticky again. Still looking for more FI/FB stuff. And Hunters. And a few others. Never ending quest to fill the slots.

Pulse is not a part of the Effect, right?

[thorny talon]

Tank isnt required anywhere apart from raids

[upbeat quartz]

dont they like
push enemies out of cover?

[inner harness]

No not at all

There's 2 used on morozova but besides that tanks are useless

[thorny talon]

If u struggle with sticky install an external crosshair software makes it 1000x easier

And its not bannable

[upbeat quartz]

i started playing tanky because i was tired of waiting for enemies to get out of cover lol

[quick tendon]

I'm just out of practice. Been out a long time, and going from Console to PC, just gotta practice more 😄

[inner harness]

Especially in co op never mind just higher difficulty its very easy to get overwhelmed with a tank on your team

And raids you won't be able to kill your adds

Legendary difficulty scaled to 8 players lmao no chance

[thorny talon]

Rather work on status affect build that actually helps more than tank

[quick tendon]

Love status builds.

[upbeat quartz]

this is why i dont play mmo's i guess 💀

[quick tendon]

I did that in Iron Horse.

[thorny talon]

Brave assuming you didnt get kicked

[quick tendon]

The Clan I was in, during the console time, we were trying stuff out 😄

[inner harness]

Status builds suck on higher difficulties

Unfortunately

They're really convenient

[upbeat quartz]

but what's a good close range build then?

[inner harness]

Any hyper dps will hit many times harder

With strikers on 3 piece prov builds you can do over a mil per pellet easily

[thorny talon]

Shield+shotgun builds .dont fall for the smg meme

Also hit headshots with the shotty not body

[inner harness]

Smgs are great

[thorny talon]

Nah they mid 😎

[upbeat quartz]

what would either of these builds look like?

[inner harness]

They have great named items and amazing attributes

Like 21% CHC

[quick tendon]

This time around, on the PC, I'm thinking of making my HF more HS statted. To see what happens.

Too bad we don't have slug rounds.

[inner harness]

Headshot is the strongest stat but the only drawback is that its less likely to happen

[quick tendon]

True

But in like the bunker, close quarters...

[tender wave]

Hunters Fury with a high end chest and bp or memento - see the build spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

[inner harness]

Still great if you just focus your aim a little

[upbeat quartz]

wdym less likely to happen? it's as likely to happen as your aim is good, no?

[quick tendon]

I'm not a pray-n-spray type 😄

[inner harness]

Yes but you can't be expected to always hit them in the head due to pellet spread and then the fact you aren't always gonna go straight to an enemies head all the time

[smoky stag]

quite easy actually

[quick tendon]

Which reminds me, now I rethink a pistol and lmg build. sigh Darn pistol directive in Summit

[smoky stag]

easy to hit headshots when the muzzle is literally inches from the face
1-2 tap chunggus with m870

[upbeat quartz]

depends on gun accuracy, and on PC with my mouse i can aim where ever the fuck i want.

[upbeat quartz]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/12q8dBzHLXhZ6ClbXp6wmB5aGvFypQL-PNyUQo_4yWGw/edit something like this?

[plush otter]

wait, we are gonna pick on the headshot statement and let this above one stand uncontested? or the statement about what the crit dmg of a pellet should be without even asking what weapon, or just asking the build?

[smoky stag]

*reading

[plush otter]

try the raucey one for a more general one, and that one has a HH version aswell in there

[smoky stag]

depends on the status
fire good up to heroic
foam good anywhere
emp sticky, jammer are good anywhere
shock is so-so
bleed, blind, bottom tier
foam + disrupts is goated on legendary

[plush otter]

their wording was builds, not skills

[smoky stag]

*adjusting comprehension levels

[upbeat quartz]

blind bottom tier? someone i was talking to the other day said blind was really good. feels really good too. being able to blind a spread out group of enemies with the little bird shaped drone often gives me a much needed window to push

[inner harness]

Foam+disrupt sucks on legendary the damage is waaaaaay too low

[smoky stag]

blind is bottom because they still move away
this is from the perspective of a dedicated CC on legendary speedruns

[smoky stag]

why you trying to do damage as a foam disrupt cc on legendary lol

[upbeat quartz]

ah, enemies move while blinded in legendary difficulty?

[smoky stag]

you are crowd control

[low flame]

Just because blind is bottom tier does not mean it is bad, it just means there are better ways to cc your enemies

[inner harness]

He's using a shotty and he's shd 12 so I didn't expect him to have a build

[smoky stag]

any difficulty
I cc for 3 other headhunters on leggo speedruns. blind still makes them move asway unlike foam which keeps them in place

[smoky stag]

nicely put
its useful just better options exist

[upbeat quartz]

🤔 when i blind enemies they stay still

[inner harness]

Because it lasts like 6 seconds the only scenario where I'd prefer it over any build is when an ad rushes up but if your team is right that just won't happen

[smoky stag]

on capitol's entrance for example, id usually go foam + blind or foam plus decoy since theres nothing to disrupt

[deep blaze]

This is interesting perspective, I was dipping into a dedicated CC build for legendary and for some places where EMP wasn't needed I was running foam + blinder as I saw that being recommended for that, as with the foam some enemies rather quickly start shooting back (even though they're standing still) making them more dangerous, while with blind they stagger around slightly but basically don't shoot back, so you'd advise to swap it out more? I'm still trying combinations with it

[inner harness]

Disrupt is God tier if it just lasted longer

[inner harness]

The 3 main legendary are ez you can do them with dps besides capitol manning and tidal are a different story

[smoky stag]

use emp sticky. deploy dont detonate.
when it wears off, detonate

[deep blaze]

I was getting a dedicated maximised CC setup for legendary with a HE build with improvised to max haste and status effects + tag team to basically perma CC with how CC resistant enemies are there

[smoky stag]

we did manning with full red hunters fury headhunters with regulus and shottys, negos, strikers and a cc

and tidal too

[inner harness]

OK let me rephrase it you "can" do any legendary with a dps but can you do it more easily

No

[deep blaze]

Would you say blind still has high value if you're not looking from a speedrun perspective and more a "try to get this matchmaking group through it safely" type play?

[smoky stag]

did i mention speedrun?

[deep blaze]

I can imagine if you really know what you're doing it might not be too great or even hinders you with them straggling around sometimes and thus there's better options

[inner harness]

No actually you didn't you just said you did it

[smoky stag]

dps with a cc is the fastest way to do it

[plush otter]

that was aimed toward the 170k being bad statement on your part after asking for the crits, 170k on a acs is ok, 170k on a m870 is bad, without knowing context you cant make a good judgement, thats why i called it out as a bad way, you atleast need to know the rpm or weapon to base a statement like you made on

[smoky stag]

then there are situational builds like oxis on capitol jammer room or roof but generally its a dps run

[smoky stag]

yes. its not entirely useless
just foam and disrupt has a whole lot more value on the highest difficulty
in heroic foam is often more than enough and fire can do damage so blind becomes set aside as a lesser option

[deep blaze]

Yeah I feel like I don't value it (blind that is) as much in HC at all because you can just basically kill through so fast anyway

[upbeat quartz]

unrelated but its kinda wild that division 2 has better stealth mechanics than watch dogs lmao

[smoky stag]

theres a case use for it on courthouse

[low flame]

Plus let’s remember to apply blind from a skill you have to use that buggy firefly

[deep blaze]

I was trying blind for legendary because it felt like a really safe option where you somewhat keep them in place (as they only slowly straggle around), somewhat the foam effect, but also make it super safe for your team as the enemies now can't really shoot back (unlike with jammer/foam)

[inner harness]

OK just checked wr Manning does use a status

[deep blaze]

So if your team isn't a good squad it helps them out a lot

[inner harness]

But it uses Jammer no disruptor

"Not" typo

[smoky stag]

jammer disrupts electronics lol

hence they're grouped together

[inner harness]

Exactly so why we're u making a case for disruptor

[smoky stag]

read again. slowly

[inner harness]

And I'm not even sure it's a status since itdoesnt show builds and there's no Vile procs

[smoky stag]

both jammer pulse and emp sticky are skills that disrupt enemies and are hence grouped as such

"disrupt" status effects

[fiery cloud]

Hey ikia, Doom

[smoky stag]

saph g'day

[deep blaze]

Btw thank you for your perspective just saw you seem to know what you're talking about and I wanted to dip into doing this, this is helpful

[quick tendon]

Manning and (Camp White Oak?) are the new Legendaries? How are they? I haven't tried those yet since I came back.

Tempted to load up the Playstation just to see. since the PC character isn't fully kitted out for those yet

[smoky stag]

thank you. my interests are usually in legendary missions so when someone shows the least bit of interest i try to point them to useful techniques and setups

[opal bluff]

i'm trying to stream the game on discord for a friend to watch and it crashes the game the instant i start the stream. altough weirdly it works fine when i stream my screen

[quick tendon]

Twitch?

[smoky stag]

manning and tidal. definitely worth the PTSD.
insanely stupid drone and grenadier spams with every area seeming to have a medic and chunggus

[quick tendon]

So it's a crazier run than Roosevelt Island. Great.

[deep blaze]

Game is very sensitive about even the alignment of the planets tbh, things hooking into it (like overlays) are already often causing crashes

[idle sparrow]

It says inaya has a exotic project for me but I can’t find it in my project menu?

[deep blaze]

I'm surprised window capture (only way to capture it other than display capture) in OBS isn't causing issues with it...you could try that, and if you stream to a friend that way, if you don't want it public on twitch you can do it on YT live streaming as you can make it unlisted

[smoky stag]

its fun. breaks the monotony when you've run the old 3 countless times

[quick tendon]

Oh gods, so very true. I miss doing legendary runs. I'm currently trying to rebuild pieces and such.

I mean, I could go into Legendary, but with the pieces not being fully maxxed out on stats, I don't wanna ruin the team runs with poor abilities in some instances. (and if I'm not doing skill dmg/fx, I'm usually a healer - which I'm looking for more FI stuff)

[smoky stag]

FI always useful in casual runs
bring the lefty and opportunistic backpack

[deep blaze]

Tbh if you're doing it on random matchmaking, just having a good coherent build and actually trying, without everything fully maxed, makes you better than 95% of people who go there and you more than carry your weight

[quick tendon]

I used to have a party I ran them with, then I started to do things randomly matchmaking.

I will take a poke at Legendary with my skill build later this week. 😄

[smoky stag]

i went in capitol leg last week and full red glass cannon smurf at shd level 20-ish with shd 2ks and higher. ended up saving the run several times.
while the build helps greatly, its knowledge and experience that helps just a bit more

[quick tendon]

Yeah. You're right. At least I know enough of those three so I'm not a total newb. 😄

Capitol is my fave. I didn't like DUA (that end boss can be a pain) or Roosevelt.

Just need to learn the Zoo and Tidal.

[smoky stag]

DUA u can unload scorpios on the boss once you break the ammo belt.
he wont bother you anymore and you can trap him

Roosevelt, run FI, spam the drone with scorpio to disrupt
Zoo boss you can spawn camp the doors (theres a sequence to the spawn that you can memorize) then once its just the boss you can clip thru his armor/plating by sticking to them and shooting while up in their faces
tidal basin you can camp the spawn at the right side sam station with a heal/cc and good DPSes OR outheal the debuff inside the control room and kill everything from there

[hollow crown]

i started playing yesterday, mainly got it because i could play on my steam deck. pretty fun game!

[quick tendon]

Oooh thanks! I'll have to try that Scorp tactic (once I get one again). I usually ran a FI build (more healing rather than dmg) so will def see what I can do this time around on the PC.

Outheal eh? Hrm. I will def need to think how to work on that build for the room.

[idle sparrow]

How come I haven’t found the intel for Anderson manhunt?

I’m level 40 and everything

Above 40 even, I have the SHD level now

[quick tendon]

Did you select Manhunt in the menu and started on the Lts?

[idle sparrow]

I don’t know, what’s LTS?

[deep blaze]

Probably meant his lieutenants, the other targets (4 bounties and activities leading up to them) before you can get to him

[idle sparrow]

Last manhunt I did was keener on NY

now I’m back to DC

[deep blaze]

they're all bright yellow on the map, mostly East side of DC, taking over a lot of the regular activities and CPs there

[idle sparrow]

The only yellow icons are raids

[lunar nimbus]

Anyway to deconstruct more than 1 items faster?

[deep blaze]

You can mark items as junk and deconstruct all junk

[tender wave]

go to white house, you should have a quest marker pointing up to Manny's room and then down to talk to Kelso, that starts things off

[idle sparrow]

Sadly the door hasn’t got any marks

[lunar nimbus]

I got 50 items in my stash and want to deconstruct all of them. If I hold TAB for all of them it seems tedious 😂

[deep blaze]

E.g. tapping V as you go through items (especially quick if you sort by New so all the new unseen items are on top), skipping through what you want to keep, and then after all is marked everywhere you deconstruct all junk button (hold tab, but make sure to not be selecting an individual item to not deconstruct that)

[tender wave]

go to manhunt tab and look for the prompt to 'reset manhunt progress' then try again

[lunar nimbus]

Got it now. Thanks

[idle sparrow]

I think that worked

I was scared to do it yesterday cause I thought I would need to redo the keener mission

[tender wave]

hah no, there's no way to reset the warlords story manhunt

[idle sparrow]

It worked thank you so much!

[tender wave]

np

[opal bluff]

well when i share the full screen and not the game specifically it works perfectly (minus the missing audio)

[deep blaze]

Yeah probably doesn't hook into the game keeping it safe, those options were I guess more like for in case you'd want an alternative to sharing your whole screen in case you wouldn't want that (or if it had an unwanted extra performance penalty)

Oh right and the audio bit

Just reroute game's audio to transmit via your mic with virtual audio cable esps 🤣

[hollow crown]

Are there any good td2 content creators on youtube that y'all would recommend?

[tender wave]

For builds, most people here would recommend ignoring youtube and just looking at pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice . For other content (eg season story recaps, hunter guides, etc) they're probably ok though.

just be aware they are very clickbaity due to the way youtube monetization works

[quick tendon]

Rick Valassi. 😄

[dull bluff]

How does one properly play with focus nd?

Dunno if it cuz of the 12x scope because I should be using 8. But I'm not doing so good. Used to run and gun with momento. What the playstyle here

[tender wave]

get behind head-high cover, open shield, scope and corner peek around the right-hand side of the cover, stay zoomed in most of the time (you can drop zoom for a second at a time to get a wider view). It's quite awkward and works best when you know exactly where the enemy are coming from.

[thorny talon]

Run and gun with focus
Wut?

[tender wave]

oh, and tag a few different enemies whenever you can to take advantage of ND

[thorny talon]

To use focus to max potential u need to shield glitch

[dull bluff]

Yes. Most of my playtime from 0 to 190 shd has been gun and run so I'm not used to this new style. I dunno how to shield glitcb.

[tender wave]

it's the corner peek thing I described above

if you've got shield up then scoping in offsets your view slightly to the right, allowing you to peek around the right side of cover without enemies shooting you back

it's a bit of a cheesy tactic but useful on legendaries. Might get patched at some point though because pvp.

[dull bluff]

Cover has to be higher than when u crouching right? Railings won't work?

[quick tendon]

Too much potential for opening unless it's solid.

[tender wave]

has to be head-high (standing height) cover yeah

[brave aspen]

2P OD/Umbra + Ninjabike and whatelse?

60% reload speed go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Trying to make some Ninjabike meme builds

[dull bluff]

I'm stuck on 3/4 control points to unlock chirpy. Tried resetting manhunt doesn't change anything. Someone said there was a side quest i needed to do to unlock the last control point but I can't find it.

[tender wave]

check https://division2map.com/ and set the filter to just show CPs

I think MLK Memorial Library is the one that doesn't initially show up in the story until after a certain point

[iron trout]

anyone else crash heavy today??

[dull bluff]

Do I just go there and do it and its just not shown on map

Or do I have to unlock it first?

[north cloak]

Fast hands on weapon

[quick tendon]

Oh gods, I did her yesterday. "Why do they call you Chirpy?" 🤣

[dull bluff]

I want to do her too.... been confused why it won't show up for a few days now.

Just her then can farm exotic with Anderson lol

[thorny talon]

Reset is only option

[plush otter]

you have to do the sidemission in that zone called MLK library community, its from the theatre community, talk to every mission giver there and go do the side mission, then log out and in to have it be a CP

[brave aspen]

Lol

[dull bluff]

Ty so much

[hollow crown]

question, when i equip a mask from my inventory, it says equipped and everything, but it doesn't show up on my character model. am i doing anything wrong?

[gaunt gull]

Does this game have many new players? Just got it about a day or two ago and it's been a blast! Just wondering since I'm looking for some folks to play with casually and most people are doing raids and whatnot!

[gaunt gull]

Gotta relog! That's how I fixed it. :)

[hollow crown]

what's relog?

[gaunt gull]

Log out then log in

[hollow crown]

ahhh ok

and to answer your question, I'm new. I got it mainly to have something to play on my steam deck that's shooter and multiplayer

apparently, you can play apex legends, but that's a little too fast paced with a controller for me

[idle sparrow]

For trigs bounty quest, does it have to be in the yellow highlighted areas or anywhere on the map?

[gaunt gull]

I dunno, I just like strolling around and shooting stuff. The game's really pretty but everyone seems to be moving at mach 12 haha

[north cloak]

You have to kill specifically trig if that's what you are asking

[idle sparrow]

No, to get to trig you need to complete missions

I’ve done em all except for bounty mission

[north cloak]

Yeah then you need to do the missions in the corresponding yellow areas

[fervent berry]

They have to be within the yellow zone. It should show you which activities within it you need to finish

[idle sparrow]

trig area at the southwest doesn’t have any yellow icons anymore, so do I have to go to some other area to complete it? Cause the other areas are for the other 3 bosses

[quick tendon]

What's what I have left. Two bounties then onto the main course.
I wonder what his story is.

[fervent berry]

If you cleared all prerequisites, head over to the Bounty tab, and Trig should show up in Southwest

[idle sparrow]

Oh thank you

[fervent berry]

No worries mate, enjoy the hunt

[upbeat quartz]

wish there was a 'add talents from marked items to recalibration library' button

[north cloak]

Luckily the further you go the less you have to worry about that

[dark junco]

I really do not like the skin of the snpier rifle, like what was Div 2 sponsored by lego?

[north cloak]

Which one?

[upbeat quartz]

wdym?

[dark junco]

Red and White

[iron trout]

ive crashed 4 times today :/

[dark junco]

The Doctor Home M1a rifle

They been saying since november 2022 that "PC Crashes have gone exponentially" they have no idea why.

[iron trout]

great lol yup just in the middle of something game goes to window and thats it

[dark junco]

You can go here to see what they are working on https://trello.com/b/F2RU9ia9/the-division-2-known-issues

You can see it is under "Investigating" but not "In progress" which means they know its an issue but have no fix planned at all

[thorny talon]

Tru

[pastel breach]

what's the best way to farm optimization mats?

[thorny talon]

Lel

[thorny talon]

U can see their sources from table

[pastel breach]

are control points the best way of farming tactical assessments?

[tender wave]

Fastest is probably running dz landmarks in a group

[plush otter]

control points dont give tac assessments, only field recon for completion, for faction tac assessments, bounties are the pve go to, that and missions that are fast like lincoln for the factions that have fast missions

[wintry ocean]

Where can I get perfect glass cannon

[tender wave]

Providence target loot is your best bet

[wintry ocean]

Oh really I've been running the summit with providence as my target and it hasn't dropped

Wondering if it was dz exclusive

[pastel breach]

got it thanks

[dull bluff]

If I'm doing convoys for xp and I can do challenging with 4 directive. Will heroic give more xp or stick to challengin?

[surreal orbit]

Depends on if you can do them just as fast or faster. Max xp per hour is the goal.

[dull bluff]

Prob slower

[idle sparrow]

Oof the trig bounty at the Jefferson plaza isn’t there.

Just shows the main mission that I completed

[surreal orbit]

Bounties tab on map

[idle sparrow]

Shit forgot to do that again

Thank you 💀

[viscid wedge]

Hi guys is regulus droppable once i crafted it?

[late finch]

Had mine a long time and never had it drop

[surreal orbit]

Have heard of people having it drop from one of the IH bosses whole. But it will never drop from the general loot pool.

[viscid wedge]

Ohh thankss :>

[dull bluff]

Can't find anyone for raid

[thorny talon]

Ohh stop right there 😜

[plush otter]

can confirm it can drop from IH bosses after you have the blueprint, but rare, likely same 1% random exo that can be a eagle from DH bosses, also its only on the first clear per reset per char that there is a chance (edited wording for droprate)

[thorny talon]

Crafted items are not droppable that is what u guys have to reply not the one in a million happening

[plush otter]

you trying to tell others how to answer is quite rich

[thorny talon]

😎

[plush otter]

also as your answer is factually wrong again as it is so often with you

[thorny talon]

🥱

[quick tendon]

There's not a bot where we can do commands like check up on our profile and such is there?

[tender notch]

nope

[timber hatch]

I believe the 1% is roughly how rare any exotic is to drop from a boss. Then for a specific raid exclusive the chances of it dropping are 1/[# of exotics in loot pool].

[tender notch]

ive heard that and also this "1% is the chance that Eagle drops and not any exotic" so im not entirely sure.

[thorny talon]

There are custom bots which u can add in your own server

[vivid swift]

how can i unlock rykers tactical assement blueprint

[timber hatch]

The easiest way to get multiple regulus' is to run the raid once you've crafted it with a character that doesn't have one in your inventory or stash on a fresh run of the week. You'll get the parts to craft another dropped by the bosses/box guaranteed.

[quick tendon]

Drats. I guess Battlefield/XIV kinda spoiled me with the bots to use while I'm at work. 😅

[plush otter]

yeah, i agree with this, worded it poorly myself there, should have said 1% of a random exo dropping, and then eagle is in that pool, that is what seems to be current concensus and does track with the rate in actual play

[vivid swift]

how can i unlock rykers tactical assement blueprint

[tender notch]

same as 90% of blueprints from RNG reward from CP3+ and any project that rewards a blueprint + weekly invaded.

[viscid wedge]

Hi guys need some help i cant seem to find the project for the Dodge City Gunslinger’s Holster

[dull bluff]

What kind of build/game play is one that is kinda hands off?

[viscid wedge]

i already got the 3 pcs for the holster

[dull bluff]

I've been running and shooting all day my handsbarentired.

Can I just press one and two button and call it a day? Lol.

Are skill build less intense?

Don't want to aim and shoot all the time.

[tender notch]

turret and drone build, theres a full guide in the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

@viscid wedge check you projects, its proably there (not named dodge city though). Or do you already have the exotic on you or your stash?

[viscid wedge]

i already got the exotic pieces

[thorny talon]

Do consoles have auto run option?

[tender notch]

@viscid wedge see here https://thedivision.fandom.com/wiki/Dodge_City_Gunslinger’s_Holster#Acquisition

[north cloak]

Chatterbox?

Liberty?

Ridgeways?

[dull bluff]

No idea. Yeah its tiring to run. Like I've played like 4 hrs straight today.

[tender notch]

no

[dull bluff]

Usually never played this long wanted to getbthebmost out of my ps plus sub lol. So my hand kinda tired out.

Everything dies but I gotta run and pick up momento buff. Aim and shoot for hours. Haha really intense.

[timber hatch]

So you've gotten the 3 pieces to drop from the 3 control points? Make sure you donated them and then you actually have to talk to the project lady on the second floor of the Whitehouse to progress the project.

[surreal orbit]

Any crafted item cannot be shared, period. If it drops whole, then it can be shared with those in the group when it dropped

[north cloak]

I was just responding because I've had all 3 drop whole after crafting

[surreal orbit]

Of course, once you craft them they enter the general loot pool…

[north cloak]

And I was responding to someone saying it's impossible

[surreal orbit]

I think they meant droppable as in shared

[north cloak]

On a second look it seems like the whole conversation I was replying to was confused on what they meant

They were answering different questions it seems, or different interpretations

[tender notch]

correction, once you OWN the blueprint (dont have to craft it) it enters the general loot pool. (same for all non raid crafted exos)

[surreal orbit]

This is what I believe as well, but was responding to his specific comment of them dropping after he had crafted them

[quick tendon]

What? the exotics I have picked up (loot/rewarded), I need to buy the corresponding BP first, before it drops into the loot pool?

[tender notch]

yes, for the crafted ones only

[quick tendon]

I had forgotten about that. Guess I need visit her to buy them. 😮

[fickle hemlock]

When you farm all open world CP’s on heroic playing solo and don’t get a single g roll gear piece. ⬇️bad.

[surreal orbit]

Rng…

[fickle hemlock]

When I finished the map I sat in the safe house and debated my life choices for several minutes

[stoic stratus]

Is anyone down to play in my server to farm control points? The #lfg-xbox is quite dry.

[tender notch]

please keep LFG to the lfg channels

[stoic stratus]

😐 whatever

[tender notch]

but yea Xbox is sadly the least populated. there is a xbox community on the system i hear though.

[stoic stratus]

Damn, where??

[tender notch]

ummmm on the system, sorry dont have xbox, but ive heard it often. (like xbox communitys/ group function i think)

[stoic stratus]

Oh damn i forgot about that, i'll check it later..

[cold lagoon]

[stoic stratus]

XBOX LIVE❗️❗️❗️

[cold lagoon]

😼

[fervent berry]

Xbox EU is populated well, I have no problems matchmaking every day. Probably depends on region and the time you're playing at

[wintry chasm]

good to know that the second i step onto the bridge heading to roosevelt island, it's already a warzone

[thorny talon]

Welcome to the grind. You like it?

[pine knoll]

What edition do i buy on steam to get all the content

[fickle hemlock]

@thorny talon I played d1 religiously, didn’t intend to give d2 the time of day tbh. But.. there is a huge lack of quality games that are available at this point. I should have started d2 5 years ago.

[thorny talon]

U are too obsessed with god rolls i believe

[fickle hemlock]

Here I am season 11 a week away and I’m just now at level 50. 😓

[pine knoll]

OI What edition do i buy on steam to get all the content

[wintry chasm]

wdym all content? like missions or cosmetics?

[pine knoll]

i dont care about cosmetics

i just want to make sure im not missing out on missions or stuff

[wintry chasm]

warlords of new york i'd say

[pine knoll]

see thats what i thought

[wintry chasm]

as well as the year one bundle to get classified missions

[fickle hemlock]

I wouldn’t say obsessed, but I’m what you call “pot committed”.

[pine knoll]

but then u dont get the year 1 pass content

[tender wave]

ultimate or year 1 pass gets you a small amount of additional content (a few classified missions) but the vast majority is in the base game + warlords

[pine knoll]

so am i actualy missing anyhting then

[cloud sage]

Year one pass gives you 8 classified missions that you can't access otherwise. They're varied sort of side missions that once you've cleared them once can act as additional fast travel points around the DC map.

[pine knoll]

bruh

so pay to not waste time moment?

[cloud sage]

It's not a huge advantage exactly. Just a minor conveniece thing. There's plenty of fast travel points otherwise on the map.

[wintry chasm]

control points, safehouses, convoys and settlements should just be enough for you

[pine knoll]

ok so dont bother buying warlards ultimate edition?

[river wyvern]

so year1 pass is not necessary needed then?

[pine knoll]

technicly none of it is needed lol

[cloud sage]

Well it's up to you but if I was about to buy the game I'd have gone for the ultimate edition. The difference in price is so small that why not? But that' sme.

[native trout]

I'd stick with Ultimate..it gives you everything you need

[river wyvern]

i mean you won't fall in disadvantage over others missing those 8 classified contentright?

[native trout]

no

[river wyvern]

tyty

[pine knoll]

so why bother

[native trout]

the classified missions are a waste of time imho

[cloud sage]

Ask yourself that, we all reason differently.

[native trout]

just like kenly college

Ultimate comes with all you need, including a level 30 boost...

[pine knoll]

but am i really missing out on much

[cloud sage]

Oh, one more thing that comes with Year 1 pass: instant unlock of all specializations.

[wintry ocean]

Where to farm perfect attributes ?

[surreal orbit]

Can get 50 levels in a day easy….

[river wyvern]

i just use recali if i see any perfect atts

[pine knoll]

So can I get everything in the ultimate edition minus the fast travels without buying it?

[river wyvern]

idk if im doing correctly tho XD

[surreal orbit]

You get everything with ultimate

[fickle hemlock]

@surreal orbit took me 3 to get where I’m at. Idk about a day… 😨

[cloud sage]

I don't understand what you mean. You get everything with ultimate edition. No minus.

[surreal orbit]

Resource convoys on challenging or heroic with as many directives as you can handle. 15 levels an hour should be easy.

[pine knoll]

No I mean if I buy the new York edition which is the one below it then can I get all the stuff included in the ultimate edition minus the fast travels by just playing

[cloud sage]

Yeah, basically.

[fickle hemlock]

@surreal orbit open world on heroic farming resource convoys can get 15 levels per hour?

[pine knoll]

Ok so it's pay for conviniance not content

[cloud sage]

Yep, and you can always get year one pass separately later on if you feel like it at some point.

[surreal orbit]

For me challenging is faster, and I’ve done 18 levels an hour.

[pine knoll]

I wa shiny also ask will buying the ultimate edition have any additional things later on

[cloud sage]

I don't think so, no.

[river wyvern]

anyone here is a sniper? and have gotten their Mantis alrdy? is it from marksman rifle targetloot? or is there a questline like Nemesis?

[surreal orbit]

Sent you the xp chart

[wintry chasm]

ok

[fickle hemlock]

@surreal orbit I don’t recall that many convoys being available that often. Is this a new lobby after each?

[surreal orbit]

Targeted loot for mantis

[surreal orbit]

They come and go, but keeping all control points red helps a lot

[fickle hemlock]

That makes a lot sense actually

Ty

[river wyvern]

thankx budha

[surreal orbit]

I run territory controls and public executions in between because they are faster

[quick tendon]

I dunno about that. I think my console character got her flashlight kitty (backpack trophy) that way.

Not sure if I can get that on the PC. Haven't done classified yet.

It's a matter of achievements or lore, whether one considers it a waste of time. Even if it's a little side note story that doesn't affect the overall story.

[native trout]

shrugs do the backpack trophies really m ean that much?

[quick tendon]

Depends on the person. For me, it's a way to help talk about something (where/how), or with a glance identify where that person has been and/or done. Like the patches. And certain ones are no longer obtainable if I read a post correctly. 😢

I don't count the commendation numbers too much, aside from knowing how much they might've done to get that.

[fervent berry]

Those classified missions provide some substantial XP if the backpack trophies aren't appealing at all.

Looking for their entrances can be off-putting though, can be annoying for sure.

[quick tendon]

Oh for sure. It's like, they're cloaked until you're right on top of it.

[north cloak]

You can have a tiny skeleton with you at all time, so that's what they mean to me lol

[quick tendon]

I'm trying to figure out what I want have hanging on mine, on the PC.

one thing I liked about the kitty, is that it helps light things up at night. Well, if they're chasing you anyway. 😊 It's will always be on my console's backpack. Not gonna give it up.

[surreal orbit]

11 exotic components already this morning… 😎

[wintry ocean]

Where's the beat spot to farm good gear attributes

[analog bluff]

why does it say ineligible for darpa research we already did the pentagon?

[surreal orbit]

Heroic or legendary

[ashen lark]

Hey anyone else having their pentagon mission act up

[wintry ocean]

@surreal orbit better in legendary or just based on rng?

[ashen lark]

It’s bugged and I have no idea how to fix

[surreal orbit]

Always rng

[frozen meadow]

pentagon has been bugged since start of season

[wintry ocean]

@surreal orbit would their be a better chance in legendary?

[ashen lark]

Any workaround? I’ve tried to get a friend to start it, but it won’t unlock for me

[analog bluff]

ty

[surreal orbit]

Typically the higher the difficulty the better the rolls, but it’s never guaranteed

[deep blaze]

legendary gives usually much higher rolled items, but it's also a lot slower to do so you probably get much less amount of items

so HC is probably still better as the sheer quantity of "at least quite decent" items increase the chance you get a really great one more

[frozen meadow]

not that i know of

[ashen lark]

Damn, I’m stuck on my firewall challenge

[surreal orbit]

I’ve heard if you join someone else who has the mission might work

[surreal orbit]

HC?

[frozen meadow]

i heard it doesnt work

[frozen meadow]

i think he meant heroic/challenging

[surreal orbit]

Interesting, to me it means hard core…

[frozen meadow]

same here lol, im just guessing

[small spear]

weird way to say it, could also be heroic countdown

[frozen meadow]

youd say cd tho

[deep blaze]

well we're talking about the context of doing difficulties

[frozen meadow]

hc is a character type not a difficulty

[deep blaze]

HC is also the abbreviation for heroic in most MMOs

[frozen meadow]

this isnt an mmo

[plush otter]

this is what has been circulating as a fix, unsure if it always will fix it, but worth a try
https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/zq1vgv/how_i_fixed_the_pentagon_breach_issue_for_a_player/

[deep blaze]

games that have HC content then

[frozen meadow]

hc stands for hardcore

[surreal orbit]

Never heard it here and I’ve been here for years

[deep blaze]

surely if you say "hey what difficulty am I doing this mission on, challenging/heroic/legendary?" and you say "HC" you're not like oh so I do the mission on hardcore?

[frozen meadow]

well thats why youre causing confusion

lol

[deep blaze]

I think you're being quite pedantic

[small spear]

uh, i don't think it's just eevee being confused lol

[frozen meadow]

you confused literally everyone here lol

[deep blaze]

it's being used and I literally found many results for it

you not seeing it =/= never used

[frozen meadow]

lmfao

[deep blaze]

and yet people didn't have issue deciphering it in context? I don't get why we're making it such an issue

[frozen meadow]

just dont call it hc here thats all we are saing

[surreal orbit]

Meh, still clearer to just say heroic

[deep blaze]

okay so why did no one say that to the hundreds of times people used it before?

just wondering

[plush otter]

HC as heroic is a common term outside div, its only div2 and diablo that use HC as hardcore abbreviations that ive seen it over it meaning heroic

[frozen meadow]

can you find a single case of it being used to define a mission difficulty here please

reading through the use of HC, the only one using that abbreviation is you

[surreal orbit]

With Div 2 having a hard core mode, it does create some confusion, just sayin

[frozen meadow]

hundreds of times people used it before... you mean the hundreds of times you used it before lol

[deep blaze]

Yea I get that but I don't really get why context isn't a thing that can't be used

[plain trail]

show receipts

[frozen meadow]

yea show proof that someone didnt use it to abbreviate hardcore

lol

[surreal orbit]

And your typically quite wordy, so….

[vague pecan]

HC is a pretty common term just maybe not around these parts for TD2

[frozen meadow]

im on page 7 of results and its always being referred to as hardcore except for apple

[frozen meadow]

so dont say it here, thats all we are saying

[vague pecan]

what are you the word police

relax lol

[frozen meadow]

what are you the word lawyer

lol

[surreal orbit]

🤣😆😂😆

[deep blaze]

ya seems like I'm mixing my servers up and it's referred to it in another place like that where there's also hardcore but not as commonly played

[plain trail]

which place

[deep blaze]

idk I just found it weird that context is not allowed

[plain trail]

can you be more specific?

[vague pecan]

say what you want bud abbreviations are cool

the more the better

don't be censored

[vague palm]

no its just that division 2 has hardcore mode; so its weird to call Legendary/heroic hardcore....

[vague pecan]

fight for your right to use unnecessary abbreviations

[frozen meadow]

mojoe youre trying to pick a fight

[vague pecan]

sounds like you are but I don't fight children sorry bud

[vague palm]

🤡

[frozen meadow]

aight im not arguing anymore

[surreal orbit]

Trolls have invaded the conversation… I’m out

[plain trail]

no wonder you sound so silly, you don't fight urself at all

[vague pecan]

https://tenor.com/view/chris-pratt-andy-dwyer-omg-shocked-face-meme-gif-25585329

[deep blaze]

why is there such a huge need to know? a community mostly around couple blizzard games (and few others) I once played with some friends

[azure lintel]

Does anyone know how to fix the pentagon mission? I got this key to start the main mission, and th even it says that the missions is locked

[surreal orbit]

Love that those just show up as links…. Lmao

[frozen meadow]

id just wait until they fix it in a week or two

[deep blaze]

somehow HC could be both heroic and hardcore there yet with c o n t e x t of saying say "what difficulty are you running that mission on" people knew not to ask every time "oh you're running that mission on hardcore difficulty instead of normal that we talked about just now? huh that's weird"

[frozen meadow]

because hardcore is difficult

[vague pecan]

it's legit a widely used abbreviation in many MMO communities and has been for years, but I can understand the confusion with Hardcore

[balmy cedar]

Has anyone done hardcore?

[frozen meadow]

i have

[deep blaze]

yeah I do too

[frozen meadow]

just dont use hc to refer to heroic thats all we are asking

[vague pecan]

we can do what we want

[balmy cedar]

How far did you get?

[azure lintel]

Has Ubisoft said anything about this? I have not seen anything

[fervent berry]

Heroic Hardcore when?

[vague pecan]

let's just call hardcore xcore cos that's cooler

[surreal orbit]

Sorry, I was confused and just wanted clarification since I was in the conversation. Never seen HC referred to as heroic before. So I asked, shoot me I guess…

[frozen meadow]

im an HC HC HC player

who plays HC with HC players in HC

[deep blaze]

No I meant that other guy asking specifically for what other communities I'm in
that's why the reply to it

[fervent berry]

Eevee, the head captain of the head coach of Heroic hardcore, dang bruhs

[frozen meadow]

its very HC

[plush otter]

try this if its a option for you
https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/zq1vgv/how_i_fixed_the_pentagon_breach_issue_for_a_player/

[frozen meadow]

oh my bad

HC HC HC HC player

[balmy cedar]

Does the year one pass apply to sharpshooter, demolitionist, and survival? Meaning you get instant use at level 30?

[frozen meadow]

yes

[balmy cedar]

On hardcore

[cloud sage]

Worst part of this would be knowing everyone's involved actual age engaging in this childish bickering.

[frozen meadow]

idk

[azure lintel]

Oh so I need a friend that plays this game

[frozen meadow]

thats not very HC of you

[plush otter]

that or wait for a fix, likely with the next tu that will come soonTM

[balmy cedar]

I feel like it would be most effective, I struggled with taking out the maurader on WT5 so idk how that would go on hardcore

[surreal orbit]

Still have to earn spec points at world tier 1, that’s whe you have access,

[balmy cedar]

That’s wild

[lean wasp]

Does anyone have checkpoint on 100 summit...I accidently removed bodyarmor that gives me RIdgeway's pride

[frozen meadow]

idk why we are comparing div 2 to wow

[vague pecan]

i think death knights would defo win in a fight vs faye lau

[brazen mountain]

Bro

[quick tendon]

Q: Is it Challenging or Heroic that I stop seeing purples/blues?

[brazen mountain]

I think any fantasy creature would win in a fight against

A human

[cloud sage]

From Challenging and up.

[fervent berry]

You'll still see purple loot in open world chests on Heroic, but loot rewards from quests or missions will be best quality at that point.

[quick tendon]

Ooooh okay, that's what was confusing me when I did a few back up calls. Normal/Hard I could understand but ... Now it makes better sense.

Thanks @cloud sage @fervent berry

[fervent berry]

@quick tendon No worries mate, even I've confused myself with this one before

[quick tendon]

A QoL would be having a tick mark on the talents, as to whether it's in the library or not. 😄 Instead of dragging the whole lot to Haven/BoO. Blue/Purples I pretty much just trash when I can.

[small spear]

that is a thing

view a talent you've already imported, there is an icon indicating that

on a piece of gear, i mean

[quick tendon]

Is it? I know, the attribute points with the arrows.
I wasn't sure on the gear (weapons/bp/chest). What's it look like?

[small spear]

i don't have the game handy but it'd be below the talent icon

it's hard to describe but you'll know it when you see it

[quick tendon]

Oh ok. will check when I get home then. Thanks! (more on spot sells at the vendors)

I'm glad they have a vendor/stash box in the summit now.

Forgot what floor

[small spear]

iirc ground floor and boss floors (10, 20, 30, etc. except 100)

[quick tendon]

Ahh perfect!

[plush otter]

after the boss fight on the boss floors is correct

but also as a option at each checkpoint entering or leaving a elevator

you could go back to the ground floor and do your inventory management and then go back into the elevator and continue from your checkpoint

[river wyvern]

are the drop rate really low? for exotics even in heroic ?

[tender notch]

~1% from target loot before directives.

[river wyvern]

T.T damn

[fringe mantle]

Man I thought permanent was gonna be hard I'm sad

[coral igloo]

So what would drop rate be on herioc 5 directive’s

[balmy cedar]

Um as fast as you can kill, rolls would be better but it comes down to rng

5 directives are useful if you’re farming for something specific but otherwise slows you down

[lunar heron]

anyone wanna play for fun i havent played to much only lvl 24 on playstation

[coral igloo]

Im farming gohan status effec hast gloves

[balmy cedar]

I’d do it in countdown

I managed to get 3 pieces

[serene jay]

I'm sort of new to division 2. I wanted to know if I craft the chatterbox SMG once then can I craft it again or do I have to get its exotic parts once again?

[fringe mantle]

Yes u can craft it later u just need to farm the parts again

[serene jay]

Oh crap I gotta farm the exotic parts again and again damn. The gear score will keep increasing enemy hp and dmg and I will have to keep grinding for exotic parts to craft new chatterbox

Pain

[fringe mantle]

I mean u can just wait tell world t5 then craft

[serene jay]

What happens at T5?

[fringe mantle]

Would tier 5

It's the max u can go on world tier so high stats

On wep rolls

[serene jay]

Ohh thank you for telling me about this

I really appreciate your help

[fringe mantle]

Np have fun man

[surreal orbit]

Do you have the warlords expansion? Because that takes you to level 40 which is max base level. World tier 5 is max (level 30) level with just the base game.

[serene jay]

I don't have the expansion

[plush blaze]

why can you not craft airaldi chest pieces, fukin insanity

[surreal orbit]

There are not blueprints for every piece in the game… get ready for more disappointments…

[plush blaze]

is there a new farm for high end gear

[surreal orbit]

Current level? Do you have the warlords expansion?

[plush blaze]

yes, max level

[surreal orbit]

So level 40 I assume. Countdown is probably the best farm. Challenging+ is best to eliminate purple gear. You can set your targeted loot there and at the summit. Both are good farms, but countdown is better. Lots of loot and also currency that you can use to purchase named item and exotic caches at the countdown vendor.

[low flame]

If you’re ever farming your difficulty should be at challenging or higher, challenging eliminates superior (purple) gear and higher difficulties (heroic and legendary) give higher minimum rolls for gear, so instead of 5% minimum out of 10 maximum on something it’ll become 7% minimum

[river wyvern]

dumb question, how do i access countdown? is it a mode?

[plush blaze]

@low flame @surreal orbit If I dont care about min rolls, what just simply yields the most opportunity for drops and fastest. I can always optimize

countdown challenging or heroic

[low flame]

Well some groups struggle with heroic countdown, especially match made ones, so I just stick to challenging

[quick tendon]

I've not tried Countdown yet. 😄 Well, I take that back. Did it once, on Console before retiring it awhile back. Gotta figure out how it works, one day. Find a good guide or overview of what to expect and NOT bring my skill build there. 🙂

Summit, I do mainly Heroics at the moment.

[low flame]

Are you level 40 and have completed warlords of new york?

[river wyvern]

yap just finished warlord and fresh at 40

[low flame]

It is a mode in one of the off-site mission circles, at the top right corner of the map. It’ll say pentco fariview power plant, and is right below the summit

[river wyvern]

ohhh okie!

[low flame]

You can matchmake for it through the mission thing inside the circle, but some have had trouble doing that, so matchmake through the matchmaking tab instead if you can’t do that

Also on that mission thing you can select targeted loot by pressing a certain button displayed at the bottom of the screen, this will make getting a certain type of loot easier

[river wyvern]

OHH i was gonna ask that

thanks gray!

can i go in solo? or is it prefered group runs?

[low flame]

Do it in a group

It is easier, especially for a new player, and even people who say they only play solo will do it

[wooden ferry]

Its faster and more effecient with a group

If you wanna solo u can farm the summit

[balmy cedar]

That and fighting 8 hunters on your own might make you mental

[river wyvern]

can u select targeted loot in summit as well/

[wooden ferry]

Yes

[river wyvern]

okay! thanks

[warped bramble]

are the countdown servers taking a shit or am I just dripping balls right now and just imagine I had the 3rd countdown in a row without any hunters?

[wooden ferry]

Like none at all?

[warped bramble]

none

[wooden ferry]

Thats odd

They should be the first enemies you encounter near the countermeasures

[warped bramble]

I had it happen before but 3 times in a row is just beyond odd

[wooden ferry]

What about when you extract

Is there none there either?

[warped bramble]

never played that long, when I see no hunters I assume the servers are being fucky or someone is messing with the session and leave

[wooden ferry]

Wait so

Is this your first time playing countdown

[warped bramble]

no, not at all, far from my first one 😄

[timber hatch]

What difficulty are you playing countdown on?

[warped bramble]

heroic of course

[wooden ferry]

Oh nvm i missread it

Im dumb 💀

[wooden ferry]

My guess its probably a bug or something

[warped bramble]

well, I have hunters this time, but now the group is full of dumdums.... oh well, can't have everything I guess

[lament mirage]

U need help? I got a build for every role well minus support

[brave aspen]

The groups I have been matchmaking with kept dying at the extract lol

[lament mirage]

Prob forgetting there revive hive

[warped bramble]

or calling in the chopper when there are still 3 hunters around, because Kelso told them to

[polar warren]

Hard to call others dumdum when you leave the CD for imaginary reasons. Just saying !

[warped bramble]

ya, the hunters nonexistence is only in my head, in reality they are hiding under my bed

[lament mirage]

I usually call it in when we low on time

Failing the mission ain’t worth extra loot

[low flame]

Yeah if my group is struggling I’ll try to call it in, even if I die at least someone could extract

[warped bramble]

ugh, when do people learn not to start CD until everyone is green and actually connected to the session?

[lament mirage]

It’s ok it’s ok

[tough sonnet]

Can someone confirm me info about chatterbox? Can it drop from targeted loot in summit or countdown if I do not own blueprint of the exotic? 😄

[warped bramble]

and now the hunters arer sliding over the ground in a crouch animations while shooting their shotguns, I can't anymore, I am not that sleep deprived xD

[tender notch]

crafted non raid exotics enter the general loot pool once you own the blueprint. so need the blue print 1st.

[tough sonnet]

Huh I was scared about that answer...well I will grind farm it last then, have a lot of work around acc and gear first xD thanks

[tender notch]

chatter box blueprint is fast to get, just do the faction boxes daily (about 50% drop rate for chatter part iirc)

[tough sonnet]

Oh that is really nice drop rates 😄 have 4 keys, need to work on that also a little first before I dive into farming 😄

[lament mirage]

I think about 7 should be enough unless shit rng

[lean wasp]

No foundry bulwark gear available today?

big bummer

[tender notch]

if not, you can always target loot summit/ countdown

[lament mirage]

Damn u

Beat me to it

I kinda wish countdown had a minimum shd requirement tho like 100

Cuz by that you’ll have the crit from the watch maxed n a decent dps build

[low flame]

New players in countdown aren’t a bad thing, it’s just a bunch of them

Plus remember shd level doesn’t show skill

[tender notch]

well id say for heroic countdown a minimum SHD could be nice. but challenging god no, no SHD level requirement.

that said though even high SHD levels have bad builds and having a good build matters MUCH more then any shd level

[wooden ferry]

this

[low flame]

When I was shd 1 I wasn’t an inexperienced player, just an inexperienced player to wony since I had played through the world tiers entirely and had even made builds while doing 1-30

[wooden ferry]

SHD levels gives u bonuses which are neat but they arent gonna be that good if the build is bad

[lean wasp]

Heroic countdowns are literally impossible with low levels in

Challenging i found okay with low levels

[north cloak]

maybe like 150 shd requirement for heroic cd?

[river wyvern]

is it same as summit?

[hot rune]

got a big problem here, trying to kill General anderson here, and i got 1/1 on all bosses for the intel

is it possible to miss someone, or will the bounty be the boss i need?

[graceful warren]

Can you change clan name?

[low flame]

You need to kill the targets through a bounty which is at a specific mission location

[hot rune]

All boutys are checked, and only got 50% intel on anderson

[low flame]

No, bounties for the target that you are gathering intel on

Not the ones you had to do to complete the intel

[hot rune]

Had a few year break from this game, damn i am rusty 😂

@low flame thanks to you i got a little smarter... i apreciate it 🙂

[low flame]

Can you be more specific about what is the same?

If you mean targeted loot, then yes, you hover over the mission to set it and both summit and countdown share targeted loot, so if you set targeted loot backpacks in countdown they will be targeted loot on the summit

You can also change targeted loot while in the summit

[midnight flare]

anything I should do before leaving nyc? all missions ( including side missions ) are done

[tender notch]

nope just finish it, you can freely come back

[midnight flare]

senpai responds 🥺 lol

[tender notch]

🤣

[midnight flare]

do I still have to deal with wt when I get back to d.c? lol

[low flame]

No more world tiers

[fervent berry]

No more tears

[midnight flare]

plenty of tears

[fervent berry]

[tender notch]

still tears on a world you've never seen before

[serene jay]

My gear score is 489 so the stuff enemies will drop or I will get from crates gonna be over 489 score or still 450-515?

[fervent berry]

It certainly won't be over 489. That is your ceiling so I'd think you'd get loot between 480 and 489. I could be wrong though 😂

[plush otter]

your ceiling isnt going to be your current GS, otherwise you could never progress as you cant increase it then

[surreal orbit]

🤦‍♂️

[plush otter]

ive seen +15 -15 stated by some, not sure of the validity, so take it with a grain of dc-62

[serene jay]

I just took over a control point and got stuff with gc around 450

[fervent berry]

Then scratch what I said. I vaguely remember the vanilla days and the struggle of the grind for better gear score.

[serene jay]

What's the point of increasing gc then?

[molten spire]

It used to be how progression through the Black Tusk plot was paced/gated, except that they removed most of the gearscore progression requirements

[serene jay]

So getting stuff over 500 gc is all rng

[timber hatch]

All gears score represents is how close to completely maxed the stats of a particular item are, 515 being everything completely max rolled on an item.

You can still get drops of any gear score in that 450-515 range, although the minimum rolls an item will have is increased by difficulty. The big thing to keep in mind (assuming your staying at WT5 and not going to play the dlc) is that where you are now effectively gearscore doesn't matter. Having the right rolls for a item are much more important than just having a random item with random max rolls and a 515 gear score.

[tender notch]

what he said ^^

[serene jay]

I see, thank you for taking time to explain things to me

[timber hatch]

Are you going to play the dlc or stay in the base game?

[serene jay]

I'm probably not gonna play the dlc

[tender notch]

if you plan to go DLC soon, then none of that matters as the DLC makes your old gear very quickly trash (except exotics which you can reroll upto level 40)

[midnight flare]

learned this the hard way 🥸

[low flame]

Even though all the items I had from world tiers were high end and had high rolls some random level green piece with low rolls is better

How’s that even make any sense? That’s one complaint I have about warlords

[tender notch]

its a very common expansion system for games

for a long time now

[hollow flame]

iam stuck in NY city everytime i want to go back to DC game crash wtf

Any Idea to help me?!

[molten spire]

turn off directives if you have them enabled?

[hollow flame]

not working wtf is happening in this game

[winter radish]

use the pilot in Haven to go back to DC instead

[hollow flame]

tried this too

every method crash the game

[low flame]

Matchmake for a legendary, join the group and go to the location of the legendary mission, then leave the group

[viscid star]

omg seriously I just checked like 30-40 question marks not one hostage rescue 😬

[winter radish]

then matchmake for countdown and once you're in a group, leave right away. should place you back in DC

[hollow flame]

i will try this

but are u sure that countdown will travel me to DC if iam in NY?!

[plush otter]

hostage rescue tend to not spawn unless you have nearby CP's captured, it increase the likely hood of it spawning by allot as they are green activities

[viscid star]

ok thanks so capture all control points and theyll just appear or are they question marks first?

[molten spire]

Capture control points

[plush otter]

make a zone green, and you should get some, think they will appear marked as hostage rescue without being a question mark as they are green activities, but also i might be misrememberingedit: nope will be question marks

[molten spire]

this actually just opens the map with the option to fast travel, annoyingly

[tender wave]

if you're still in story mode all activities can spawn as question marks (I've also been looking for hostage rescues, keep finding target practices instead)

[plain trail]

the base game isnt that fleshed out

so if you arent gonna play the dlc, i would probably stop playing the game entirely

after the story

[plush otter]

actually yeah, target practices are green and start as question marks so im just misremembering as its been a while since ive ran a char that has had any question marks left

[surreal orbit]

And blocks hostile resource convoys from spawning, and blocks farming the 2 named bosses when on heroic… green control points are not worth it imo….

[tender notch]

The base game is like 1/3 of the game, with the rest being the DLC.

also the DLC goes on sale very often.

[plush otter]

think he was talking in the context of what the pilot option to go to DC does, that just opens the map, same asif you hold the button on DC/NY

the other capture the control points was a unrelated response to the other question of spawning hostage rescues

atlaest that is my read, they can confirm it for themselves

[surreal orbit]

Meh

[hot rune]

ended up with installing D1 instead, back to the good old days 🙂

[haughty fox]

How to farm money fast in division

[viscid star]

Y'all were right thanks that took forever haha

[dark condor]

[surreal orbit]

Bounties, and sell junk

[surreal orbit]

#lfg-pc

[dark condor]

we need tank kinda bad

[surreal orbit]

The correct channel for looking for group…

[frozen meadow]

fuck it

[dark condor]

just trying to get sombody quick

[frozen meadow]

check your dms

[surreal orbit]

Better to do in the right channel…

[solid bloom]

Ps5 lvl 20???

[surreal orbit]

Is that a question?

[dull bluff]

I've noticed hunters in extraction part of countdown usually drop loads of named items. Haven't seen this anywhere else on the game. Are hunters elite or named? Is it becausw they're elites or is it just. A hunter/countdown thing?

[lean wasp]

I mean Hunters are like endgame bosses,if you face shot them they will insta down you

But yes they are Elites

[dull bluff]

Must be a hunter or countdown thing then. Haven't seen elites drop named items that much

[neat sedge]

have they increased the drop chance of BTSU gloves from Medics? doing a solo run of the main campaign and gotten 2 of them doing the blacktusk invasion

[lean wasp]

How many Ironworks Base Materials do we get per raid?

[solid bloom]

Yes to play

[azure lintel]

anyone here wanna join the manhunt mission for pentco fairview power plant??

[low flame]

Yeah they have a slightly higher than normal chance to drop from black tusk medics and one other archetype

[low flame]

They are guaranteed to drop named items. Originally they dropped stuff at the beginning and end but now because they don’t drop stuff at the beginning they drop way more at the end

[low flame]

Other archetype is controllers

[brazen mountain]

go to #lfg-pc for that sir or mam\

[azure lintel]

okay will do sorry

[brazen mountain]

Oh it's fine, anyone could've made that mistake!

[neat sedge]

meant more if the percentage had been recently buffed, getting 2 in 2 different missions back to back is odd

[robust tinsel]

Does anyone know about an invisible glitched enemy on manning legendary

[lean wasp]

How many Ironworks Base Materials do we get per raid? Does anyone know?

[surreal orbit]

Never paid attention, but I think it varies. Regulus project? Typically get enough from your first and second runs. If you share resources between characters, you can run it with an alternate character since they are only available on a fresh run after reset on Tuesday.

[lean wasp]

I got 33 and need 80

and yes Regulus

[frozen meadow]

oof

how many runs have you done

[lean wasp]

1

[frozen meadow]

yea do two more

[lean wasp]

would be good if I had 2 character right about now

[frozen meadow]

Oof

[surreal orbit]

Well, you need 47 more before reset tonight or your gonna have to wait another week. After you complete the projects, it needs to be a fresh run (after reset) for the parts to drop….

[lean wasp]

Can I run on multiple characters?

If I level one up?

[frozen meadow]

Yes

[lean wasp]

Nwm once you complete project you get all 40 back

I only need 7

[dull bluff]

I heard the devs working on the game isn't the original team and thats why they can't do a lot of things because they didn't make it or something. Is it true

[ocean charm]

anyone got any good beginnings builds

without the crazy god role sets

[lean wasp]

whatever you want

[unique hull]

Is general Anderson worth farming? I just unlocked the mission

[surreal orbit]

See pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice don’t need god rolls, just the right rolls to start with. There should be something in there to fit your play style…

[low flame]

Right now you can farm it on the lowest difficulty for an exotic that is in your general loot pool

[surreal orbit]

Currently has a guaranteed exotic regardless of difficulty

[ocean charm]

thank you

[dull bluff]

Is it better to farm Anderson solo or in team?

[lean wasp]

If you know what to do probably solo

super fast

Also does anyone know if Parts for Regulus drop while having Project or you gotta finish it and then stuff drops?

[molten spire]

Once you have the Rats Gnaw Our Bones project, they will drop

[lean wasp]

Damn so I gotta play raid 3 times

uff

[dark relic]

Did I ever talk about a mod that deleted stuff in here? I have this guy annoying me in DMs with an invite to a clan and talking about it but I swear to God I only talked about it in the atomic heart Discord server I feel like I'm having an out of the matrix moment

[cloud sage]

You again with issues? Yawn.

[dark relic]

No I'm asking a question feel free to answer it or go eat a carrot

[north cloak]

I love carrots ❤️‍🔥

[dark relic]

Another thing is the last thing I talked about was days ago I checked the logs

[cloud sage]

Such issues. Yawn.

[dark relic]

If you keep bothering me Im going to get a moderator

[cloud sage]

You've always got some issues. You sure Discord is a good place for you?

[solid bloom]

Anyone tryna play?????

[dark relic]

Ok bet 1 sec @cloud sage

[dull bluff]

Ah fuck I resetted thr manhunt because the Anderson mission wouldn't start.

So now I gotta do all 4 lieutenant bount before I ca so himbagain?

[cloud sage]

Yeah well, this is #td2-general-chat not some "I got issues on another Discord and things in my head" channel.

[dull bluff]

Basically I gotta start from scratch?

[surreal orbit]

Parts won’t drop till projects are completed. And then it also needs to be a fresh run, after Tuesday reset. ie, if you complete the projects by this Thursday, you would have to wait till next Tuesdays reset.

[dark relic]

You're not a moderator you have no reason to talk to me I've asked you to leave me alone so now I reported you congrats

Now wholeheartedly please fuck off

[cloud sage]

I think you need to reconsider why you hang here on this Discord.

[surreal orbit]

Dude? Chill out…

[cloud sage]

And no, I'm not a moderator. I'm a player of the game that's observed you type weird stuff the past few days. No idea why.

[wintry ocean]

Will the matador drop in the countdown?

[surreal orbit]

I believe that’s a DZ exclusive, so only in DZ, or from named item caches and maybe Legacy caches.

[lean wasp]

isn't matador in countdown store?

[dull bluff]

Do I have to do 4 bounty of lieutenants

[wintry ocean]

Ok thanks so much

[dull bluff]

I'm oder to unlock Anderson again.

[lean wasp]

no

[surreal orbit]

Yeah, I guess there is a weak one there with weapons handling

[surreal orbit]

If you reset the manhunt I believe you will need to do it all again

[crimson sinew]

Any players tryna help me with the air & space museum?

[lean wasp]

that sucks btw,3 times Iron Horse raid for Regulus...there is some people that 10% chance weapon 😄

[dull bluff]

Ah darn it

[surreal orbit]

It is what it is dude…

[surreal orbit]

wdym 10% chance weapon??

[lean wasp]

the one from the raid chest...forgot the name

[surreal orbit]

Ravenous?

[lean wasp]

yes

[surreal orbit]

Have given away many eagles and ravenous

[lean wasp]

got 0,but im new so that also counts

[wintry ocean]

Anyone recommend running the countdown on challenging or heroic for looting ??

[cloud sage]

I'd say it depends on who you run it with and with what speed/success. Heroic is better of course but with randoms it can be a hassle. Challenging is usually fine.

[ashen lark]

Really sad there isn’t a compound bow in this game

[fiery cloud]

@wintry ocean run it on challenging quicker games more stuff

[graceful valve]

Embed fail

[dull bluff]

Dunno whats going on in conflict. Seekernmines exploding getting 2 shotted.

Just doing it for the experience. Probably won't ever touch it again.

[timber hatch]

Do you have a pvp build?

[dull bluff]

Nope

Hahaha. Emptied a mag and guy lost like 10 percent armor.

[timber hatch]

You've pretty much got no chance then

You level 40?

[dull bluff]

Yeah pretty much.

Yeah 40

Other guy dropped just fine with a mag guess he wasn't running pvp build eitherblol

[frozen meadow]

If you don't have a build properly set up then yeah

[solid bloom]

[dull bluff]

Are pvp builds for conflict and dz the same?

[frozen meadow]

Not usually

But they can be

[dull bluff]

Hmm well I'm just playing conflictbfor novelty.

[frozen meadow]

Lol

[dull bluff]

Probably won't bother making a conflict only build. But I'd definitely do some dz later.

[frozen meadow]

if you don't have a pvp build at all then you stand no chance in pvp

[dull bluff]

Can you recommend a dz build

That I can use for conflict too

[frozen meadow]

#td2-build-advice

[worn karma]

Hi

[cinder wave]

can i solo 30-40 warlords stuff or do i need a grp?

[gloomy wyvern]

you can solo it

[azure lintel]

What best way to get nemesis?

[coral musk]

project

[civic ridge]

With the Warlord xpac does any of the previous content matter? Like will I be at a disadvantage for not having old settlements built up?

[coral musk]

alternatively farm targetted loot with people who have it already

[civic ridge]

Played the game a while back and bought it with the sale. Deciding if I want to just boost or play my way to warlords.

[pliant karma]

If u don't care Abt the lore just boost

[ocean badger]

Ids there a decent way to level up the Season Pass I need that Manhunt for the bluescreen lmg -_-

Is*

[cold lagoon]

Grind

[pliant karma]

Ubisoft games always be like that. Start, grind, grind, grind.

No end in sight

[azure lintel]

Best way?

[coral musk]

either way will take a while

the project takes a while because of the invaded missions

farming it with someone else is just random chance

[azure lintel]

Is the new update tomorrow?

Cuz it's the last week

[coral musk]

25 hours

[lilac kestrel]

Can you roll a chameleon with 40 base mag size thus giving you 60 total

No, fixed values

How is this guy getting an extra 10 bullets in his mag wtf hold on let me watch the rest of the vid

[smoky stag]

could have run true patriot or 3 pc brazos
or switched out from any of those beforehand

[lilac kestrel]

Oh nevermind hes using picaros holster

And brazos

[smoky stag]

is there a third brazos?

[sleek oxide]

Does anyone know how to fix the DARPA research lab bug?

[plush blaze]

Droprates in this game actually pissing me off rn

[deft jasper]

is anyone on ps that can help me get the momento backpack

[limber orchid]

There are so many level 30 players playing conflict. I just don't get the point. They have no build, they won't get any kills, and they'll just die every time.. 🤦🏻‍♂️

[dull bluff]

Nobody in conflict in 40 on PS

I guess new steam players are having fun on pc

[limber orchid]

It's so bad lol

It's not fun to play with them or even against them. They are just useless

[pliant karma]

I have question, if I join someone who has a specific exotic unlocked can I just join them and farm targeted loot areas if I haven't unlocked the exotic yet?

Ie. They have Nemesis crafted already can I just join them and farm targeted loot pools for Nemesis?

[plush otter]

each player has their own drop pools, so it can drop for them and they can share it with you, but it wont drop for you just because you are in their world

[pliant karma]

If they share it with me does it mean I keep it?

[plush otter]

once it drops while in group and they share it with you, you will get access to the reconfiguration blueprint for that item, and it will be in your exotic pool aswell

yeah, shared items they drop are permanently yours once you pick it up, the only thing is that you can only share items you have gotten while grouped with that person, so they cant just share one they already have, but you have to farm together in a group till it drops for the other person to be able to share it

[pliant karma]

Ahh ok

[silent ether]

hi how do i activate the classofide objective north of the whitehouse?

[molten spire]

You have to own the Year One Pass to play the mission and the other Classified Assignments

[silent ether]

i should have it

[molten spire]

So go up to the mission start point and see if it lets you in?

[silent ether]

it doesnt let me in

i for sure have it

i got hte ulimtate edtion from steam

[balmy cedar]

Go to store > addons maybe you might need to activate it

Using the in game menu

[silent ether]

its owned

it says it owned, but i cant get in or scan it

should i call support to check it out?

[fervent berry]

Is it possible to reinstall everything? Could probably help in the next boot, but I can't say

Like uninstall the game including the DLC, everything essentially, then download them again?

[silent ether]

im playing on gforce now but i can download it on my pc

when i unlock crafting?

[jolly spruce]

is there gonna be maintenance? or when is it?

[thick zephyr]

Didn't see anything on Twitter.
Last one was Jan 3rd I think

[molten spire]

Usually if they were running maintenance they would have started 2 hours ago

[frank hinge]

when next season gonna drop?

[molten spire]

No idea, as they haven't actually said anything that would provide a concrete timeframe beyond the outline some months back

[frank hinge]

pentagon mission is locked for me because pentagon breach didn't counted so the mission is glitched now. is there anyway to fix it?

[tender wave]

There is, it's a bit complicated though. Search up pentagon breach bug fix on Reddit.
