[opal radish]

i can see shd from menu

[frozen meadow]

oih right

[opal radish]

let me waste few mats

always getting to 9999 on wrong mats

[final onyx]

lol

[sterile ferry]

just make a mule, be 9999 on all of them

[frozen meadow]

whats the legendary outfit called again

[sterile ferry]

operator

[frozen meadow]

Ty I wanted my character to be full white but I didn't have good pants lol. The operator pants aren't exactly what I was looking for but the security pants are perfect

[upper oriole]

[opal radish]

did legendary with 2 directives dua and still not a single pfe 13% did 2 runs

[hexed moss]

Hi, did some of you actually managed to get the Ravenous in DZ ? I've farmed more than 10 hours in invaded DZ this week (Rifle targeted loot) and only managed to get one doctor home and no surprises a dozen Pestilences..

[hybrid ore]

The Ravenous is not affected by Targeted Loot in the DZ, and has a roughly 0.072% chance to spawn within.

Just do Raids, it's faster.

[hexed moss]

oh damn, i didn't know it was that low. I won't try again that's for sure

[fiery cloud]

That also goes for the Eaglebearer

[opal radish]

and regulus is just raid exclusive no other way

[hexed moss]

I'm only missing the Ravenous.. and I suck at Raids. I haven't done any of the 2 raids since at leats 2 years

[hybrid ore]

With the power-creep for DPS builds and a lot of practice time for people, they're a lot quicker than they used to be.

[real creek]

Yeah DH is easy to do in 20ish min and IH is easy to get a 30ish min run in, this is assuming you aren't in a noob group.

[timber hatch]

IH lfgs are going to be a lot closer to an hour than a half hour

[hybrid ore]

I keep telling Raucey to use a keyboard and not a guitar hero controller, yet here we are.

[timber hatch]

If you can beat dark souls with donkey Kong bongos then I can HH on morozova with a guitar

[hybrid ore]

Using the strum bar is aimhacking, don't forget it.

[real creek]

Almost all my LFG IH runs are like 30-40 minutes tho... You just playing console too much man.

[timber hatch]

your doing too many clan and tnc runs lol

[real creek]

lol I think in our speeds we have finished 1 raid in like 6 hours of practice. Gotta get that closed doors boss 1-2 down ya know.

[hybrid ore]

I once finished 3 in 45 minutes.
granted it wasn't div2, but still.

[real creek]

Garlic bread?

[hybrid ore]

Warframe actually.
no idea what you said but I assume it's a youth thing.

[opal radish]

where 🤤 🤤 👀

[real creek]

Youth? You think I'm young? I'm talking about warm buttery garlic bread, with cheese it's even better.

[opal radish]

don't say it 🤤 🤤

[final onyx]

[crisp juniper]

Great, now im in the mood for garlic bread

[acoustic plume]

Mann i farmed coyote for like a week and she never dropped her mask. I ended up getting one from a cache, re-ran her mission on hard today for an objective and she drops it

I stg i get kore exotic drops on hard lol

[wooden hazel]

That sucks

[real creek]

You're welcome.

[hexed moss]

MVP and ROG clan members still unpunished doing strange stuff in pvp 🫡

[astral jacinth]

I love getting duplicate exotics now

[frozen meadow]

Which ROG

[hexed moss]

@frozen meadow most of them ? I mean i don't even try rembering their username since even if reported nothing will be done

[frozen meadow]

I had some old ties with Rogue

[hexed moss]

ROG clan is the worst offender

[frozen meadow]

That's a clan tag

There's like 50 clans with ROG

[hexed moss]

ah i tought there was only one 3 letter tag per clan

[frozen meadow]

So there's only 17.5k clans?

[hexed moss]

idk 17.5k seems like a lot of clans

I'm always seeing the same players when playing pvp (mostly conflict) on pc

The highest strange players count in pvp were coming from TMA, BLK, MVP and ROG clan tags on my side

[hybrid ore]

They're likely in the same timezones as you are, which is why you see the same players repeatedly.

[hexed moss]

I knew I was onto something

[frozen meadow]

I used to be in blk

Three years ago

[pine seal]

can someone explain how I get ninjabike bag?

[frozen meadow]

Target loot for backpack

[pine seal]

is it a exotic or named item?

[frozen meadow]

Exotic

[hexed moss]

@pine seal tergeted loot in summit and countdown

[frozen meadow]

Named items have special attributes or upgraded talents. Exotics have brand new talents

[pine seal]

how do I change looot target in open world I have summit set to backpack arleady

[frozen meadow]

You can't change open world, only summit and countdown

[pine seal]

so I should open exotic caches in summit lobby?

[frozen meadow]

That doesn't change anything

Caches aren't impacted by targeted loot

[pine seal]

dang

[hexed moss]

@pine seal If you're willing to do it just do countdown runs until you get ninjabike. And you can trade 224 points for an exotic cache. I can't say it's entertaining but imo it's the fastest way to get the ninjabike backpack

[frozen meadow]

I prefer CD over summit

I like chaos

[hexed moss]

@frozen meadow Nobody's playing summit anymore even in legendary so it's far better to do some countdown runs. And 15 min quick mission runs are far more entertaining than clearing a 100 stories building 😬

[acoustic plume]

summit just plays like butt

[dire ravine]

ye never liked Summit too repetitive and claustrophobic like give me some windows or something

[torpid plume]

Summit was only good for the floor 10 xp

[pine seal]

i like summit tbh it reminds me of those R6 shoot house maps

except for the drone rounds

[frail ginkgo]

this game is unplayable

just bought it 13 crashes in a row

i requested a refund from steam support hopefully the division 1 is not unplayable like this one

[copper shoal]

I also like Summit, it's the only place I can play legendary apart from some missions

[tulip plume]

skill issue me thinks

[hybrid ore]

It's not a "skill issue", div2 has been crashy for a while.
Some get lucky and get barely any, others get hit quite a lot. It's being worked on, that's all we know.

[pine seal]

in open world I keep getting alert for access keys (yellow beam drop) but idk what to do with them

[hybrid ore]

You use them to open doors, usually they're for Hostages that have been captured.

look out for the "hostage rescue" activity.

[azure lintel]

Hello everyone 👋

[burnt plank]

Soup

Idk what style I want to play ._.

[finite hare]

Yo

[azure lintel]

Hru

[verbal wind]

Hmm.. What would you say is the most popular darkzone?

[frozen meadow]

None

[storm cove]

Yo

Dark zone is very toxic

[azure lintel]

Skill Issue we still owning clans

[dire ravine]

Dz some fun tho

[finite hare]

I’m good my brother. Just relaxing my body. How is your day?

[azure lintel]

Pretty good enjoying division 2 and the views

[finite hare]

Yo. Heavens yeah. Can’t check your inventory in their because somebody will up there gun at your dome🤣

[finite hare]

Sounds good, brother. Sounds, very good

[azure lintel]

Yup 👍

[finite hare]

Omg. I just spelled there instead of their. How embarrassing🤣

[storm cove]

Facts 😂

[dire ravine]

Bruh that's what check points are for gotta keep your head on a swivel in there

[verbal wind]

damn, wanted to try DZ for once ;s;

[frozen meadow]

As in they are all equally popular lol

[verbal wind]

bruh

add in Australian servers

[hybrid ore]

Yeah we don't get servers, but on the other hand there does seem to be plenty of local players.

[valid steppe]

If I re-roll a lvl 20 expertise st. elmo's will it lose all expertise lvls?

[azure lintel]

Question how do you upgrade guns?

Or you cant upgrade guns?

[full jay]

Hey question, is there a way to set preferred shoulder?

[full jay]

Meaning Optimization?

or for rarity? cause if so then there is no way to upgrade that

[azure lintel]

I think optimization?

[full jay]

then yeah its optimization

[valid steppe]

It is possible to upgrade them passed lvl 40 using expertise.
max upgrade lvl is determined by your expertise lvl too so it takes a time to lvl up everything

[azure lintel]

Ok so do i just get low guns and scrap them?

[valid steppe]

yes, donate all materials and garbage to lvl up quicker than actually using it

[azure lintel]

Alr

Thanks for the help

[valid steppe]

optimization is just for weapons and gear that is not fully maxed out in their current lvl.. all weapons stay lvl 40.. expertise kind of takes dmg beyond their lvl 40 but keeps their stats as is... capeesh?

[azure lintel]

Oh ok

[valid steppe]

np mate

[shrewd oak]

Is this legendary hard

Can't find a mm at all

[hybrid ore]

I recommend trying down in #lfg-playstation, or calling for backup ingame.

[opal radish]

Pinnacle of difficulty in this game

[tender wave]

Calling for backup in legendary isn't the best option, you'll likely get someone who is really not geared or experienced enough for it

[sterile ferry]

honestly i really hate it when i answer a call and get sucked into a legendary i didnt sign up for

[tender wave]

Even if you're competent enough, it's a larger time commitment than normal backup calls

[opal radish]

even than wrong build at legendary means you are gonna have problems

[shrewd oak]

This mission in particular is just legendary

[fleet adder]

Legendary asks you to really bring everything to the table. Healthy dps, crowd control, tanking

I prefer the tank options myself. Giving my team millions of bonus armor is great while soaking chungas

[tender wave]

Tanking not necessary in legendary, dps and crowd control will get you through faster and easier

[fleet adder]

Sure, but tanking will reduce your punishment for errors which happens to the best of us.

Plus it's not hard to tank and CC

[halcyon radish]

Tank is a meh TBH, due to enemy scaling, if not contributing to kill efficient, it means take more time to complete

[fleet adder]

Ohh well, I'll take the four extra minutes I guess lol

[sterile ferry]

trust me not 4 mins

[halcyon radish]

4 min each room LOL

[opal radish]

pfe tank is only useful in certain rooms in legendary like at the end of tidal basin

[real creek]

You only need 1 very good DPS and CC do to a legendary anymore.

Easy to carry two people.

[opal radish]

yeah but those cc needs to be experienced

[real creek]

Honestly even people with skill builds make doing DPS easier cause their skills take aggro.

[opal radish]

yeah drones and turrnet

and put a decoy tier 6 and everyone is shooting that

can skip some part in Capitol legendary

if done right

[real creek]

I only feel like the mortar/seeker explosive type builds are the only ones that can compete with a striker DPS anyway.

[opal radish]

sniper turrent with artifcer is also good fir dealing with dogs and chunga

[opal radish]

you forgot th most broken skills that make striker look weak 👀

if used correctly

[tender wave]

Flame turret? Bomber drone?

[opal radish]

noo

@real creek your guess👀

[real creek]

I almost never run any skill builds unless you count healer/cc, just not a skill guy.

[opal radish]

yeah but what is the most broken skill if used correctly 👀

[sterile ferry]

foam?

[opal radish]

dmg skill foam is good no doubt but no dmg

[sterile ferry]

oh we're talking skill damage stuff

[opal radish]

yeah everyone knows the answer but not coming to their minds

[real creek]

Idk gun and good aim is a skill.

[opal radish]

answer is oxidizer

[sterile ferry]

LOL nah

[opal radish]

yeah they are broken for spawn points

[real creek]

lol you have to be set up and know all the things for that tho.

[opal radish]

that is why i said if used correctly

[sterile ferry]

which is not most of the time

[full zinc]

Yeah no. Lol mortar > oxi

[opal radish]

on spawns oxi >> mortar

[full zinc]

Are you using chatter to stack them fast?

If not then no

[opal radish]

you can even kill bloodhound inside his cage with oxis

[opal radish]

yessss

[real creek]

Yeah but he isn't wrong tho, in the correct situation you demo everything.

[tender wave]

Good luck on Roosevelt with oxi

[full zinc]

Very few situations where oxi can shine like in f10

[real creek]

We are pushing buttons to spawn 1st boss in IH at 50 seconds thanks to oxi

[opal radish]

you can there are few spots there

in the start at leftmost side at the end

in the open area where dnipers at top

[full zinc]

Oxi just isnt the be all end all skill. Its clutch in very specific situations

[sterile ferry]

is it worth it to have a dedicated oxi build just for one or two rooms?

[tender wave]

A few spots yeah, but not the majority of the mission

[sterile ferry]

dont think so

[opal radish]

yeah i agree not whole rooms

but it can demolish everything in blink of an eye

i use oxis in ipen world because i know the spawns

[sterile ferry]

in one or two rooms yeah it can, maybe

[opal radish]

in propganada broadcast

[real creek]

The thing about oxi is you've gotta get to a certain damage amount and then load the spawn and they'll all die and spawn the next wave into the same oxi and it'll be crazy fast.

[opal radish]

yup open world is like that

[solar edge]

Any help please…

[real creek]

Halp

[solar edge]

Any of my guns - full damage (100k) then when I reload £7k-10k)

[tender wave]

Polarity

[full zinc]

Yup

[solar edge]

What does that mean

[full zinc]

Match the color on your arm to the npc you are shooting

Its a global event

[tender wave]

Means you activated the global event without reading the details

[real creek]

Do you have a yellow or blue line thing on your arm?

[opal radish]

you can meele them to match yours

if you are close

[full zinc]

Or reload or weapon swap way easier

[solar edge]

Is there a way to get out of the global event🤦🏻‍♂️ didn’t even realise hahaha

It’s so annoying

[simple plinth]

yes

[opal radish]

yeah from the season menu deactivate it

[full zinc]

Menu > season> polarity switch

[simple plinth]

go to the event and deactivate

[real creek]

GE has a reward track and you gain stars to spend on caches tho.

[solar edge]

Ah yeah I have 34 stars?

[real creek]

I think the ge isn't so bad if you know what's going on tho.

[full zinc]

Countdown faster if farming exo though.

[simple plinth]

you can use them in a shop i think

not sure tho

[real creek]

Yeah you can.

[solar edge]

Yeah season vendor

[opal radish]

ge is pretty good for farming system corruption

and named items

[full zinc]

That's about it

System

[opal radish]

my highest record is like 270-280 stars

[full zinc]

CD req gain faster than the stats

[real creek]

It also does make you stronger if you keep the buff up.

[opal radish]

yeah 59 mil regulus shot at lvl5

[real creek]

So potential to do open world faster.

[opal radish]

you can do tactical reload with a foam and hh build in group

thats what i use to farm the ge

keep your mag a bit empty at start before engaging

check you got color right else reload

[full zinc]

The events seem like a waste of time now tbh. No way am I gaining 20 levels(stars) in 30 mins. CD just more efficient now.
After my 50 stars I'm done

[real creek]

Omg this ge started and literally first night I had a recommended YouTube video showing "an insane build" they were show casing with ge on. Man these people.

[full zinc]

Oh yeah, its gonna be real bad when gb hits

"Activate god mode with this build"

[opal radish]

yeah clickbait

[real creek]

I know, they put scuff builds together get footage 10 minutes after the ge goes live and boom "melt anything with this one trick".

I'll probably see about making backfire build this time gb comes around and see if I can avoid any bleed deaths.

[fair lake]

There are so many clowns, stretching videos to 20+ mins with useless info (yes, I'm talking about yellowcoat with skull mask)

[opal radish]

he can do it without GE

[full zinc]

Someone like kvd probably rate stretches his videos to hit length goals. Can easily play them @ 1.5x and they start to sound normal

[fair lake]

Exactly. I'm glad you instantly recognized the one I'm talking about)

[opal radish]

any player will recognise it

[full zinc]

Just gotta say the banana

[opal radish]

he is the absolute meta player with UltraProMax Builds/s

[tender wave]

You'd think the tiktok - driven focus on 'video shorts' would produce some nice quick build videos, but I guess that's just wishful thinking

[real creek]

Oh yeah you're right. But I think most people are seeing very little revenue from it.

[opal radish]

knowing the banana guy 😂

[full zinc]

30sec build video would really drive the comment section 🤣

[opal radish]

yeah this is the build guys cya later

[real creek]

I have been thinking about doing a 2 minute build guide and most of that time would be spent explaining the interaction or alternate parts of the build. It would cover most the meta builds.

[hybrid ore]

I take one 5 minute break and kettle is doing tiktok dances.

[real creek]

Boi can floss.

Doing all the Fortnite dances

[tender wave]

Pfft, the dances I do are far too complex for tiktok

[hybrid ore]

We talking Nutbush or Macarena levels of complex?

[real creek]

Oh man the macarena bringing back middle school memories

[opal radish]

the_Dancing _kettle

[tender wave]

I'm talking 3hr interpretive dance epics set to Wagner

(I'm also desperately trying to think of how to avoid following up on this with evidence)

[hybrid ore]

I'm just going to say the words "big lebowski" here and that'll be the end of the reference. Those who know what I mean can enjoy it, but please don't elaborate.

[tender wave]

Oddly enough, that was pretty much what I had in my head

(I actually just dance salsa and tango)

[hybrid ore]

I'll just go watch Cuban Pete a few times, gotcha.

[tender wave]

*Cuban Fury

[fickle rampart]

does ubi ever bring back the gear set vanity items from battle passes, like the strikers apparel set or the heartbreaker apparel set? (like the cavalier one this season at rank 5)

[hybrid ore]

The original 4 seasons were ran twice, so technically yes.

Although I wouldn't be surprised if they were added to the Store at some point.If they haven't been already.

[fickle rampart]

iirc they were only run twice because of covid, though idk why they haven’t been added to the store yet

I’d buy them in a heartbeat

[hybrid ore]

well Covid and the otherthingwedon'ttalkabout.

[pliant sentinel]

not the [otherhingwedonttalkabout]

[fickle rampart]

what other thing? I’m not caught up on division 2 history lol

[hybrid ore]

Well you see, we don't talk about it.
So it makes it hard to talk about.

[tender wave]

Abandonment issues have a long heal time

[unborn ravine]

Well they were going to abandon us..

[shrewd dawn]

Is IT just me or on this event enemies are dealing more dmg?

[azure lintel]

i am here

[reef reef]

Ok

[earnest scarab]

what's the max base damage elmo can roll?

[pine seal]

why am I not generating signature weapon ammo on headshot kills as sharpshooter?

[earnest scarab]

without any upgrades, I just try to craft max base I can

[opal radish]

aint no such thing base dmg is fixed

[earnest scarab]

how do I know if I have max roll gun without any damage increases from gear?

[opal radish]

by pressing x in weapons menu and turn in show base dmg

[reef reef]

Weapons at lvl 40 roll with the same base damage. The number you see will be influenced by your gear, so just look at the AR damage it has. If its maxed, then its "max roll gunc

[earnest scarab]

thanks @reef reef @opal radish

[opal radish]

[earnest scarab]

why would then I need to craft new one if base damage etc is max at lvl 40?

[frozen meadow]

because the core attribute also increases damage

[opal radish]

you reconfigure it to get dttoc as 3rd attribute

[earnest scarab]

should I craft or optimize, which is better?

[frozen meadow]

those are two completely different things

[earnest scarab]

I mean if i have good core stat, why would I need to craft?

if I can optimize that core?

[frozen meadow]

because theres two cores, a regular attribute, and a talent

[earnest scarab]

any idea why my mod inventory shows 20/100 but I cannot see them?

[frozen meadow]

Did you check the skill mods too

[earnest scarab]

I do not see such category, only MODS

[frozen meadow]

yes the mod category has like 20 subsections

14

3 for gear mods and 11 for skill mods

[earnest scarab]

gear system mods and I see skill attachments

[frozen meadow]

skill attachments are mods

[earnest scarab]

I see 8 for skills

[frozen meadow]

can you show a photo in #ask-td2-community

keeping the strees Clean

[noble lark]

I've farmed 6-1am for 2 days straight on control points and I haven't gotten the police revolver replica blueprint 🫠🫠

[desert ravine]

I guess if you farm enough points then you'll eventually get it right?

[azure lintel]

So are clans like required for most stuff in division 2

[fickle rampart]

no not really

[azure lintel]

Oh ok

[fickle rampart]

good for communities to find raiding groups but outside of that you’re missing clan vendor and weekly cache

I’d still recommend jus t joining a random lvl 30 clan for the vendor and cache every week

[fiery cloud]

Hey Aspect, Eevee, .drib

[fickle rampart]

do we know if ubi will ever bring back old gear set apparel sets from previous season battle passes into the store at any point

[forest egret]

Just need one more mask and then it doesn't work

Yay

I hate this game sometimes

[desert ravine]

What do you get after completing all the manhunt objectives?

[magic atlas]

probably not, most don't look all that appealing anyway

only one I've liked is rigger to be honest

[fiery cloud]

@desert ravine for this season once you finish the manhunt the Castle will be completed

[gaunt dust]

Who are the White Tusk?

[ruby yoke]

Enemies in strongholds missions on legendary difficulty.

[forest egret]

hardest enemy in the game

hardest faction i should say

[gaunt dust]

So your worst nightmare

[forest egret]

except for hunters, id say theyre the hardest to kill

if you put your world difficulty on max that is

on normal hunters are nothing

[gaunt dust]

Should I be worried with legendary at 570 shd?

[forest egret]

probably depends on the build

i myself am both bad at the game and have no real build so legendary is a no-go

[gaunt dust]

No way you can be bad if you play daily

[forest egret]

i play this game for a couple weeks then quit for months

[gaunt dust]

Oof

[forest egret]

cuz the idea of even attempting a raid or making a real build is awful

and pvp is just... weird

[fickle rampart]

I just want the heartbreaker set man, helmet looks fucking sick

[wooden hazel]

Managed to make a insta recharge skill build

never knew Hard Wired was so OP with datagloves and all skill damage

[steep cosmos]

Does not matter, have a good build for that, skill builds are best, can't go wrong with a 3 piece empress+turrre ND drone build, place it and hide pretty much🤷

[gaunt dust]

✅

[fickle rampart]

as long as you have good builds, you're solid. I've cleared legendaries at SHD 300 lol

[wooden hazel]

me omw to do my exotic cache oval office salute ritual because yes

NINJABIKE FUCKING YES

[frozen meadow]

Ninjabike overrated

[wooden hazel]

Dont care lmao

its useful

[timber hatch]

It's not

[wooden hazel]

To me it is

might not be to you but it is to me so therefor its useful which is what it is

[vague flicker]

quick question i have an lmg with damage out of cover and headshot damage should i replace the headshot with armor damage?

[tame coral]

Can you get Ridgeway's pride if even if you havent done the summit thing yet?

[sterile ferry]

not you but you can group up with someone who has it and have them farm it for you

[wooden hazel]

cache

[sterile ferry]

i dont think it gets added to the exo cache loot pool unless you do its project first and get its blueprint?

[wooden hazel]

maybe

I got mine from the summit ofc and got another from a cache so maybe

or ur given it

[thick zephyr]

Mildly infuriating.
Grinding and opening six legacy caches and not one single system corruption

[sterile ferry]

its rare

[thick zephyr]

Never understand why yahhl and system corruption not in the daily loot

[dire ravine]

Should at least be in dz targeted loot

[burnt plank]

You gonna need to unlock bp first before you can get it from cache

[frozen meadow]

"useful" isn't an opinion. It's always worse in slot compared to something else

[rancid island]

when does season ends?

[gentle vortex]

Anyone able to help me level up. Im a new player

[frozen meadow]

The main mission comes out next week so probs 3 left?

[willow dagger]

This game slaps

I love how i beat the game then the other 3/4 of the game unlocks

[acoustic plume]

I got one from a cache w/o finishing it

[undone timber]

Losing the backpack talent hurts

[hazy marsh]

what’s the best way to farm ninjaback messenger backpack? Seeing a lot of confusing about this. Open world lootpool, the summit or countdown?

[finite hare]

Damn. I just got ninjabike messenger knee pads from a supply drop in DZ

Cool, but not cool

[full zinc]

Countdown is probably fastest

[sterile ferry]

backpack targeted loot

[ruby yoke]

Summit with backpack targeted loot.
Openworld BP TL
Countdown BP TL
In this order

[copper shoal]

Don't listen to the others, The ones who say NB is worthless are the ones who can't play with anything but boring meta builds.

[ruby yoke]

Its not about meta builds. Its just about there’s almost always a better backpack option for almost any build/set of items. Thats all.

[full zinc]

Those better backpacks pretty much represent the meta build design. 🤷‍♂️

Nbb is never optimal but aside from mentioning that, people should be allowed to build with it how they want without too much pushback.

I see a lot of ppl get sht on for just mentioning it tbh.

[copper shoal]

And for heroic content, you don't need the best backpack. The fun with Ninja is making combinations with gears that are not possible otherwise.

[shrewd oak]

Are there lootball camos on wony from the crates? Like base game

The orange ones

[full zinc]

Yeah you can get 5 shield tiers with picaros/ninja/tech class and still have a 6red core hunters fury + 1 other high end piece, as an example. It's basically a question of what are you willing to trade and do you get enough value to justify the trade.
I use it on a HH build that's pretty decent. 👍

[tender wave]

Anyone find the 'base of operations' channels and some of the 'announcement' ones flag themselves as having new messages when they really don't? Like discord spontaneously forgetting that I've looked at them all before.

[ruby yoke]

Does switching NB bp to memento will lead to your overall performance decrease in this current case you mentioned?

[full zinc]

No memento would be an increase or a side grade I imagine. Memento is also a tradeoff from standard bags since it doesnt give twd like say vigilance or an amp like wicked or opportunistic.

if someone wanted to run nbb it really doesnt affect anyone unless you are paired with them in a legendary or a raid. Anything heroic down it really wouldn't impact another player

[ruby yoke]

So looks like again we have same answer - ninja isn’t “bad” backpack. Just usually there are better options available in bp slot.

[zinc shadow]

sometimes discord is annoying like that

[full zinc]

Yeah we agree on that. But have you seen the responses ppl get when mentioning nbb. It's like it needs to be meta build or a bunch of ppl jumping in to trash someone for not fully agreeing or just wanting to try something anyways

[finite hare]

Is there somebody in this D2 discord named wabiskel?

He said what’s up and that he remembers my name

He basically dissed me after he killed me like it would hurt me irl🤣

He said he was daddy in D2. Cool bro. I’m daddy in real life

Lmao.🤣

[dawn spruce]

hey peopl.. question, when joining groups I sometimes see a red 'shield'-icon and a number (1 through 4?) next to a players hp bars etc.. what does this indicate?

[opal radish]

it is armour break it reduces your maximum armor stack up to 4 times a ditective like fog of war

[dawn spruce]

@opal radish aaah thats why i dont se it often... usualy run without the directives. thank you for the info!

[hallow raven]

does anyone know where i could find an up-to-date list with all the exotics and possibly how to obtain them?

[tender wave]

pinned messages in #td2-build-advice has a link to a spreadsheet - check there

[hallow raven]

oh nice, thank you

[gaunt dust]

Anyone in TuxedoBandido?

[plush otter]

here is my guide on it aswell, but both have basically the same info:
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1MaAAXBLNhL1AaCBoIewExQNaqkNKlIqlYGE_OUXmjtM/edit
but it was made to bee easier to quickly see what drops from tl and what doesnt, especially with the incorrect stuff, even though the worst ones have been fixed recently

[hallow raven]

oh neat, think ill use a mix of both guides, thank you as well lol

[ruby yoke]

Not sure if you hear this frequently but thank you bro for your work with all that useful info. It’s very precious for new/casual players who don’t have much time to test everything for himself. Appreciate your time😃👍🏻

[thick zephyr]

https://tenor.com/view/no-god-please-no-no-please-no-no-god-no-yelling-gif-26334008

[gaunt dust]

Oof

[thick zephyr]

And to charge people for exclusive membership?
May as well just start an onlyfans lol

[gaunt dust]

Seriously??

[gaunt dust]

And I assume the exclusive members get exclusive treatment first lol

[thick zephyr]

Not sure if it's changed but it used to be like a buck a month to join
Stopped watching his content.

[gaunt dust]

It’s actually pretty good tbh

[thick zephyr]

Yeah I just checked.
A buck is the lowest lol,there is a hardcore category too.
But if other people enjoy, his content,good for him

[mild trail]

I’ve been gone several years. Any good succinct gear guides for a guy that dates back to pre-attribute swapping? Last build was a damage Aces&Eights I ran at the Pentagon when it was released if that gives you an idea of how far back I am.

Thanks in advance.

[gaunt dust]

Gotta make your dineros..what better way than doing something that you love lol

[full zinc]

Check the pinned google doc spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

Many proven builds for a variety of tasks.
Hub (builds) there is a link at the end of each line for a detailed breakdown 👍

[pine seal]

how do I change red core to blue core?

[full zinc]

Recalibration bench. Its next to crafting in the whitehouse.
You will need to have a blue core stored in your library (same bench)

[pine seal]

core attributes?

[upbeat stratus]

Bonjour

[full zinc]

You can recalibrate the core/attribute/talent.
All extracted from gear and stored in the library.
Only 1 thing can be recalibrated on any gear, but you will be able to recalibrate the same spot infinitly

It may be worth looking up a video explaining it. It can get a little complex without the visuals a video would provide

But basically
Library is for storing core/attributes/talents

Recalibrations is for changing core/attribute/talent

Optimization is for topping off core/attribute

And expertise is for upgrading damage or armor further than a maxed out item can achieve.

All are in the same bench

[pine seal]

thanks 🙂

[azure lintel]

HI, guys. I'm new here. Wanted to know if TD 1 or TD 2 are newbie friendly? Is it worth hopping on to these games for the first time? Thanks in advance.

[hidden prawn]

Yes. I strongly recommend NOT using the boost and playing through the campaign to WT5.

[real moth]

The nice thing about div 2 is that you can have a lot of fun without getting too deeply into it, but it's also lots of fun to carefully craft builds and strats.

[hybrid ore]

@coarse yarrow Just a heads up, the Lvl 31-40 WONY process isn't meant for you to keep gear, so just keep going through it and you'll get a lot more people to join once you are given a special watch.

[coarse yarrow]

Yea I’m not attached to anything rn, just kinda sucks leveling solo

But I also know I’m real late coming back to the game so it’s all good

[hybrid ore]

Not a lot of people will join a WONY run in-progress, but you can always specifically mention that's what it is in your LFG post down in #lfg-pc

You never know.

[coarse yarrow]

Thanks for the info

I’ll just keep grinding till I’m high enough to join some dz or raids

[pliant sentinel]

u still get pretty good CD points for failing the main objectives

195 not bad

[burnt plank]

Disconnected right at the end of countdown ;D

[hybrid ore]

It was a Countdown to your 'dc.

[burnt plank]

I'm testing Cavalier andddd

It didn't active charge first time for me

So little confuse, must be bug or something

Then I test on fire range, it work again

[shrewd valve]

is there a way to change the color crits on console?

[azure lintel]

what is the perfect AR?

[shrewd valve]

max dmg, health or dmg to armor, & dmg to targets out of cover. Or (dttooc) for short

and the talent should be able to be changed.

[azure lintel]

which tallent am i looking for

[rich shadow]

Fast hands is top tier. Strained is good. Flatline if using the linked laser

[burnt plank]

I have to say...

Cavalier kinda weird to use...

[azure lintel]

thank you

[burnt plank]

Also...Cavalier is bugged when use in countdown sooo

[shrewd valve]

and if you want a list of top tier ars, it’s usually famas, police m4, st. elmo. But there are other good options as well, but it usually depends on dmg, rpm, & mag size. But tbh it’s up to you on what you wanna use. Most weapons are viable.

[burnt plank]

Don't use it in countdown

[rich shadow]

I pretty much replaced my famas with elmos in most builds since those mods are too nice and the talent comes in very useful

[shrewd valve]

yeah, i hate to admit it but that 70 round mag, it’s rpm… it’s dmg… it’s crit chance is high… it’s talent is useful pretty much anywhere… it’s damn near the perfect weapon

even the sound it makes when it shoots feels like it packs a punch

[rich shadow]

And it's a laser beam. Long range kills are easy

[shrewd valve]

yeah. and the scope isn’t the worst

it’s just… too damn good

it has like no down side

[rich shadow]

Like Scorpio, but an AR

[wooden hazel]

Got 3 exotics in countdown lmaoo

[shrewd valve]

no, scorpio is what god used to fight off the rebelling angels

nothing can compare

wtf was that

[rich shadow]

I want a second elmos. But no joy yet...

[shrewd valve]

imagine we were running on d1 rules…

[wooden hazel]

I somehow keep getting em

[shrewd valve]

all exotic set

[wooden hazel]

Its a plauge

[rich shadow]

Ninja BP should let you run 2 exotics at once

[shrewd valve]

honestly i was really sad when i first got the game and found out i couldn’t put on more than 2 exotics

[molten spire]

I can't actually think of a build where having an exotic in each slot is actually useful

[shrewd valve]

make it useful?

[rich shadow]

Exactly

[shrewd valve]

yeah that was he kinda a struggle. I kinda have an idea of how an all exotic build would go but it still doesn’t seem like it would be a good build

[molten spire]

double stacking Coyotes and Memento is great, maybe triple with Ridgeways, but Bloody Knuckles? Shocker Punch?!

[shrewd valve]

more like a novelty like getting the achievement in d1

[rich shadow]

It doesn't need to be in every slot. But having more than one might be nice.

[shrewd valve]

first of all. scorpio, st elmo, busy little bee

or regulus if you’re feeling like that ig

coyote mask, memento, shock punch, bloody knuckles, sawyers knee pads, tardigrade

doesn’t sound the most shit build in the world

[rich shadow]

Coyotes, memento,... Maybe shock punch with bloody knuckles.

Sawyers and tardigrade.... Mmmmm

[shrewd valve]

actually wait

that doesn’t sound bad at all

shit i mean you could switch coyote w/ vile for scorpio

[rich shadow]

Not a fan of sawyers. Tardi is OK I guess but it's a huge damage sacrifice

[shrewd valve]

yeah, what’s that chest piece that gives bleed?

can’t remember the name of it

[rich shadow]

Ridgeways

[shrewd valve]

yeah ridge, doesn’t sound like it would be bad w/ vile scorpio

[rich shadow]

Decent build lol

[shrewd valve]

now i want it

🙁

it wouldn’t be the best build but it would be fun

[molten spire]

Ninjabike knees as an alternative to Sawyer's

like between Ninjabike knees, Ridgeway and Coyote's your crit chance and damage isn't actually that bad

[shrewd valve]

we can only dream that we ever see something like that actually in the game

[shrewd valve]

and actually yeah you’re not wrong. That’s still 2 blue cores and 4 reds

5

St. Elmo, scorpio, busy little bee
Coyote, memento
Ridgeway, bloody knuckles
shock punch, ninjabike knees

[rich shadow]

Decent shield. Shock on melee. Also bloody knuckles proc.

[shrewd valve]

shit idk maybe it would actually be kinda good

[rich shadow]

I use a build with pgc, gift, bloody knuckles and Elmo's with crusader shield. Throw a fire nade on a spawn or group of enemies with the lefty equipped (you proc perfect sledgehammer and bloody knuckles). Then switch to Elmo's and delete everything. I tried it in countdown and managed to kill an entire spawn of elites by myself using this method. Damage is really good and the fire nade and shock ammo help with cc while you murder.

[frozen meadow]

its situational tho

[rich shadow]

The damage is still great without bloody knuckles or p sledgehammer

No stacks or ramp ups

It's there immediately

[frozen meadow]

yeah cuz pgc

[rich shadow]

Strikers does more damage once stacks are up

[frozen meadow]

but pgc lol

[rich shadow]

Yep, and perfect vigi. Add knuckles and perfect sledgehammer and it's nuts

Great for countdown and legendary too

[frozen meadow]

solo legendary yes group id debate

and big no on tidal/manning

[rich shadow]

I'd say the other way around

[neon wyvern]

I hate glass cannnon

[rich shadow]

Why big nono on tidal?

[azure lintel]

lets say i have 2 st elmo

[frozen meadow]

lots of reasons

[rich shadow]

You could swap for obliterate but it's nice to have 3 Prov so pgc makes sense

[azure lintel]

should i donate one to the expertise tab?

[frozen meadow]

have you used it on tidal or manning

[rich shadow]

Not used it solo legendary yet no

[frozen meadow]

not solo

[sterile ferry]

deconstruct

[frozen meadow]

have you just used it on those missions period

[azure lintel]

why deconstruct and not donate to the expertise tab thing

[sterile ferry]

always deconstruct useless exotics for exotic component, never donate them

[azure lintel]

can u send me ur banner 👀

[sterile ferry]

because 1 exotic component >>> donation

[frozen meadow]

the fox playing with the toy?

[rich shadow]

I've ran pgc on legendary a lot

[neon wyvern]

yes donating barely brings up proficiency

[frozen meadow]

no, specifically those two on legendary

[azure lintel]

ohhhh okok

[azure lintel]

yes

[frozen meadow]

https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/711131206476890124/1015300636297920623/4CsnwO.gif

(yes i know it doesnt embed)

[azure lintel]

thanks!

[neon wyvern]

why are u even playing games at this point

[frozen meadow]

?

[neon wyvern]

why specifically those 2 missions

not even like Roosevelt with that first area

[frozen meadow]

rough

[rich shadow]

How do you mean?

[neon wyvern]

that's legendary

[frozen meadow]

lower difficulty enemies on roosevelt

[rich shadow]

I find heroic so easy it's the only thing that's a challenge these days

[frozen meadow]

nug have you used that build on legendary tidal basin or manning zoo. thats literally all i wanna know

[neon wyvern]

[finite hare]

What’s the new meta PvP build this time? I got shredded yesterday multiple times; and it felt like my old builds weren’t damaging them

Probably should’ve asked in #ask-td2-community

It felt like they were hitting as hard as old DC

[rich shadow]

Not that I remember. But I can give it a go if you want lol

[frozen meadow]

That would be nice

SHIT this pizza still hot

[opal radish]

division 🍕

[neon wyvern]

divide your slices equally

[azure lintel]

Finally got some surpressors about time

[crisp panther]

In game comms cross platform?

[rich shadow]

I'll run it later on and record some footage. Random matchmaking.

[real creek]

No cross play.

[crisp panther]

Fandabulous.

Ty.

[frozen meadow]

Don't need footage I just wanna know how it fairs

Cuz those missions are significantly more brutal than the other three

[azure lintel]

Do you get rewards when in a clan?

love crashing in the last part of countdown 🥲

Btw is there other stuff besides gernades?

[full zinc]

Clan vendor and weekly cache (quality depends on activity goals)

[azure lintel]

Ah ok

[real creek]

Also a couple cosmetics.

[azure lintel]

Ig ill join a clan

[full zinc]

Sometimes the clan vendor will sell stuff like yaahl that's normally dz only

[real creek]

If you get distinction of the week you'll get two clam caches too.

[azure lintel]

Nice

[full zinc]

My rookies keep beating me in cxp lately 🤣

[azure lintel]

I can creat a clan?

[real creek]

Yeah I'm only putting up 50-100 mil these days. I don't play much anymore.

[full zinc]

Yes but probably better to join established since everything will be unlocked

[real creek]

You can but you'll have to hit a certain number of members before you can level your clan.

I think it's 5 members.

[azure lintel]

Well now to find the right clan ig

[full zinc]

It's nice when they are active. I just joined an open 1 a long while ago, ended up getting ownership through inactivity. Was pretty easy to flip, now 90% active 👍

[azure lintel]

Nice

So anyone reccomend any clan on ps4?

[full zinc]

#td2-clan-recruitment
Or search ingame for one that's open

[azure lintel]

Alr 👍

[dire ravine]

@vernal hatch you ever get the catharsis

[fiery cloud]

Hope Everyone's having a great gaming day

[dire ravine]

Ty hope the same for you and it will be a good gaming day cuz Fenris finally in open world 😂

[wild anvil]

How does someone get Dark winter gun now?

[finite hare]

❤️Ty. Hope you enjoy yours too

[dire ravine]

I know dz and named item caches I also got it from manhunt missions

[fluid haven]

what’s the fastest way to level up the season pass?

[surreal orbit]

Public executions and propaganda broadcasts, with global difficulty on challenging or heroic, with as many directives as you can handle…

Should be able to get 15-20 levels per hour.

[wooden hazel]

Gonna try to kill a stalker hunter

Noober is in my view

anyone got a way to force him to move from his location?

Cause ik they can

[rich shadow]

So I did the first part of tidal with the build. Worked well. Damage wasn't as nasty as full strikers but burst dps was great and a nade on a chunga made short work of it (not that it needed it). I did go down but that's what the hive is for. Overall it was pretty good. Elmo's is op 😂

[frozen meadow]

what do you mean "first part"

[neon wyvern]

Before hovercraft?

[rich shadow]

Didn't have time to play through the whole mission so I did up u until the choppers. But it was enough to see how it performed.

[frozen meadow]

thats like 3 rooms bruh

[wooden hazel]

I have found out

system corruption bag and chest have a funny lil thing

if being used as a customisation mod on a normal vest

it adopts the camo that is present on the vest or bag

[rich shadow]

And?

[wooden hazel]

looks cool af

[frozen meadow]

The difficult room is 6 and 7

[rich shadow]

Pfffff

[small spear]

staying alive with hovercraft skip challenge

[odd basalt]

yo anybody wanna join me im trynna get a build going as well as level up to lvl 100 in the seasons

[fluid haven]

Alr thx works good!! But 15-20 lvls per hour I can’t do that

[vague flicker]

does the eagle bearer talent still kill you?

[surreal orbit]

I run challenging with all directives and 15 levels an hour is pretty easy. Might be your build, check the hubs tab on the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice lots of tried and tested builds to choose from….

[surreal orbit]

It can if you don’t meet the kill requirements…

[frozen meadow]

wdym "still"

[signal blade]

Hey guys, has anyone ever had a glitched supply drop? An enemy was trying to open it, I killed them, and it still says "contested" even though they're dead, and the area is clear

This is in the open world btw

[frozen meadow]

never worth doing so never done em

[vernal hatch]

Week 4: still no catharsis opened about atleast like 80 caches within those weeks and still hadn't got it. This week tho I did my first raid and on that raid I got a eagle bearer. Still not exciting as getting a catharsis mask 😡

[crisp juniper]

Ive somehow ended up in what im calling the backrooms of division 2

[dire ravine]

I have 6 exotic caches I can open for you can't guarantee catharsis but can try

[frozen meadow]

thats not how they work

if the cache is in your inventory already opening it will still make the loot locked to you

[dire ravine]

Yeah I do it all the time if he joins me

They're not in inventory from league ge and weekly

[pine seal]

you can share exotic caches?

[dire ravine]

If you haven't claimed them from ge, weekly or league and they are in your group

[surreal orbit]

Only the ones you “claim”, and the person you want to share with needs to be in your group when you claim the cache….

[dire ravine]

The ones bought from countdown vendors aren't shareable

[frozen meadow]

^'

[surreal orbit]

Purchased items (any) cannot be shared.

[dire ravine]

Exactly

So I have 6 rn that I can share from 3 characters

[pine seal]

how did you get those?

[surreal orbit]

From the global event, the last 2 rewards are exotic caches. If you wait to “claim” them, you can share them with whoever is with you when you claim them….

[pine seal]

so you could get 100s of caches if u knew enough people to share?

[surreal orbit]

There are only 2…. A possible 8 with 4 characters…

[limpid pond]

Hey guys, whats the "Severe Threat" Screen referring to in Castle?

[frozen meadow]

future seasons most likely

[vernal hatch]

Are you still on by any chance ?

[grizzled stone]

best way to do level up the season pass?

[frozen meadow]

just doing open world activities like puiblic executions

@grizzled stone'

[grizzled stone]

ahh okay thanks level 17 lol

[limpid pond]

that and resource convoys

[frozen meadow]

^

[limpid pond]

as best difficulty as you can handle

[grizzled stone]

i do challenging

are raids worth it?

[frozen meadow]

not for xp lol

[grizzled stone]

ahh okay thanks

is the saint engine weapon worth grinding for?

[frozen meadow]

atm yes

[grizzled stone]

ight sorry for asking alot lol

[frozen meadow]

idrc lol

[dire ravine]

Ye I am lmk your psn if you on

[vernal hatch]

I dmed you

[frozen meadow]

yo i got a reconstructed lets see what i get

[surreal orbit]

Resource convoys don’t give the same xp that they used to. Not really worth doing anymore imo. Better to focus on public executions and propaganda broadcasts, they give the most xp….

[uncut grove]

anyone want 1 idc what we do just wanna play

[frozen meadow]

new reliable

[surreal orbit]

🤣😂

[frozen meadow]

wanna run descent

[limpid pond]

you know they reverted most of that XP loss, and re-buffed it right?

[uncut grove]

yee im down

[frozen meadow]

wheres your source of this

[frozen meadow]

what ign

[surreal orbit]

And then they reduced it again, no more double xp

[limpid pond]

oh, i didnt know they nerfed it aga9in

[uncut grove]

Faderz.

[frozen meadow]

sent invite

smh level 11

[uncut grove]

haha if its not cool thats all fine

[frozen meadow]

do you know how to do descent

[uncut grove]

havent ran it yet ill follow ur lead that cool ?

[frozen meadow]

ok just, pick all easy rooms and dont select any offensive skills, shields, or pulses

[surreal orbit]

On challenging all directives, public executions = 422k xp, propaganda broadcasts = 398k xp. Resource convoys only give 236k xp now….

[wooden hazel]

Im gonna do the one thing I keep doing and failing at

getting another piece of Sys Corr

Will I get it?

no because RNG hates me

Will I stop?
no

[tame torrent]

Hey all, any tips to solve error delta-03? I got the error as soon as my agent appears on screen, and is taking forever just the startup

[astral jacinth]

What’s this week’s season event

[frozen meadow]

polarity switch + second week of league

[astral jacinth]

Ok cool

[frozen meadow]

next week the manhunt finishes which im stoked for 👀

also i finally cracked nemesis skill picking

[astral jacinth]

So we wait for next season another month after next week?

[frozen meadow]

probably

[thick zephyr]

Asia server dz been quiet for quite a while.
Haven't seen a manhunt for a couple of weeks
Solo in the dz last night and it was peaceful

[fleet adder]

3 more exotics until i'm all caught up 😄

[finite hare]

Wow that’s strange. Pretty cool though

@thick zephyr is it because the servers are dead?

[thick zephyr]

Probably
Just a couple of groups farming.
Couple of rogues and that's it.
Maybe the targetted loot not enticing

Alittle jealous when I see so much action on YouTube of players in America servers

[finite hare]

F nah. The people in our servers are annoying.

People run their mouths too much over here. They run it without expectation of there being any consequence

[thick zephyr]

I mute the server so that I don't have to listen to that crap

[finite hare]

True. I forgot about that for some reason even though I do that on every one of my other games

[thick zephyr]

I muted when this dude was accusing me of ganking low shd players.even though I went to take the two of them on solo when they were on a manhunt.
Dude sounded mentally ill talking like he is a white knight saving everyone by downing me 😅

[fleet adder]

Don't matter your SHD, if you're in the DZ you're open to get attacked by rougues lol

[frozen meadow]

and a mortar

[thick zephyr]

I don't know.
The dude went off like he did a noble thing.i imagined he thought everyone in the dz stood up and clapped as he gave his speech

[frozen meadow]

lmfao

[finite hare]

🤣

“He’s gone guys.”

What I can tell about those who are disrespectful to others in game chat is that they need video games to feel good about themselves🤣. I feel sorry for them. I truly do

[fleet adder]

I mean, me and my buddy don't play rougue ourselves but we accept that the point of the DZ is the PVP and if someone feels like going rogue, we can try to fight back and if we die so be it

[desert ravine]

I mean.. I'm low SHD and I know to expect no mercy when I go into the DZ. Hence why I don't go there often

[finite hare]

True. Very true

It’s y’all that make me wanna go back to D2

Despite its toxic players

[thick zephyr]

I won't go rogue on those really low shd players cause they may not have the gear or experience.
If I see one doing a landmark,I just help clear then move on

I also hardly go rogue,waiting for others to go rogue instead

[neon wyvern]

ok

[river wren]

Let them grow bro, thats why we keep loosing players xd

[thick zephyr]

Ok,next time I just stand there and watch like a bystander

[vague flicker]

survivalist or technician for iron horse healer?

[frozen meadow]

survivalist

[vague flicker]

how so?

[frozen meadow]

what would technician help with

[vague flicker]

he has a boost for hive no?

[frozen meadow]

wdym

[vague flicker]

has increase healing by 10 and increase radius and recovery of the hive and one extra skill tier

[frozen meadow]

radius and recovery? what

[real creek]

Tech healer for IH because you don't need extra heals but you wanna be able to do faraday.

[frozen meadow]

faraday is niche and not every group does it

in fact most dont

[real creek]

Well I did a FTC for some guy and we did half faraday. I actually don't think I've done non faraday since my first raid.

[frozen meadow]

that surprising because ive done around 300 raids and only around 10 were faraday, full or half

[real creek]

You been raiding much lately?

[frozen meadow]

not since they removed vcs

was raiding a lot before they did

[real creek]

Well it's super common now even in LFG raids. You should try it out sometime.

It's way more involved and lots of fun.

[frozen meadow]

i dont believe it ngl

[real creek]

You never believe anything, hence why I say try it.

[frozen meadow]

the few raids i did do after the vcs were removed didnt use faraday

[real creek]

Well I guess you'd have to ask other people who raid a lot then. Idk but it's fact that spec diff between survivalist and tech for a healer makes any difference in a normal run.

No difference*

[frozen meadow]

I'd take that pfe

Also incendiaries good for sledge

[real creek]

Sure, but it's not going to impact a run at all, unless you get asked to do faraday then it would. Also sledge doesn't need fire. Any of the bosses can be sledged super easy as they don't really move much.

[frozen meadow]

Id still use survivalist over technician

[real creek]

Eh you don't really raid anymore so I guess it doesn't matter.

[frozen meadow]

Idk how that's relevant here

[real creek]

Because it shows the irrelevance of the claims as strats have changed.

[frozen meadow]

Has it sprung mass popularity in the last week?

[real creek]

It's been getting more and more popular everyday. I know from past experience you don't believe anything so you can just ask other people you trust or something.

[opal radish]

did raiders found out some new exploit👀

[real creek]

wat? Faraday has been a thing for months now.

[opal radish]

haven't ran since last year

[real creek]

Oh yeah everything about running in the raid would be new for you then.

[opal radish]

what is faraday anyway

i have only done like 14 raids so pretty new

[real creek]

Perk on tech tree. Prevents you from being shocked/disrupted is withing x meters of deployed skill.

[opal radish]

ahh that one okk

it is 5M iirc the range

[frozen meadow]

Im fairly confident souless that you're overdramatizing this

It's 5m yeah

[real creek]

I'm not sure how I am but someone saying it's never vs most the time I guess we both could be.

[azure lintel]

Can activate polarity ):

[narrow elm]

Is it though? Maybe for the 4/5 "core" roles... I did it a few days ago for the first time as someone who only did doors and sometimes rockets before and I literally didn't need to do anything but staying behind the tank and walk into the middle when told

I guess I probably could have died too and it wouldn't have mattered

[glacial python]

does tardigrade chest piece drops in countdown?

[opal radish]

yes afaik

[full zinc]

yes, cd also gives a chance from exo cache as well

[tropic compass]

Final manhunt target tomorrow?

[sterile ferry]

Yup

[oak prawn]

Yup then we get the shiny dolphin arm patch

[real creek]

Well get a HH build put together and learn a new role.

[narrow elm]

I do have HH builds and I merely wanted to give a different perspective since it's not objectively more fun/engaging for everyone

Maybe the "Normal" way is boring for the tank /healer /HH players idk tbh

[real creek]

I guess it's all perspective, in normal I felt like taking a nap, here kill 1-2 people every minute or so until middle call. I just feel like with faraday you could pick up other roles and learn them as you played as it's not like doing something really hurts, then if you get good at HH or have tech or OD healer or tanks you could help do full faraday which needs every role to do their job correctly.

[wise pasture]

is tb2 ubisoft sever is still down

[opal radish]

no they were never down

[wise pasture]

it is for me

@opal radish

[opal radish]

which region?i am on asia and it is fine

[wise pasture]

england

@opal radish i sent u a pic of what its sayingf to me

[glacial oar]

why ppl dont talk in this game ?

[opal radish]

wdym by that

[hybrid ore]

I can't use a mic myself, but ingame chat (from what friends tell me) doesn't work all that amazingly by itself anyway, and it's often hard to hear the people that do use it.

[sterile ferry]

The audio quality kinda sucks in this game

[wise pasture]

do i have to buy td2 on ubisoft even tho i have it on steam

[glacial oar]

It is decent. Better then typing

[opal radish]

no definitely not

just create a ubisoft account

open the game through steam

and it automatically links it

[real creek]

I voip in game a lot and yeah it's just not the best but it's good enough for a pub match or helping out someone real quick.

[opal radish]

chat is the way for me

[hybrid ore]

I've left more than one team when someone starts to breathe directly into the mic.

Life is too short to hear the quality of someone's lungs.

[opal radish]

😂 😂

[real creek]

I just mute hot mic people. I have PTT set up in game and it's also my push to mute button for discord.

[neon wyvern]

The real reason why people leave countdown 13 minutes in

[kind pulsar]

Oh my God, it had been quite a while.

[hybrid ore]

Push to talk is bare minimum for onlne play with randoms, but if someone sounds like nails on a chalkboard, then I'mma bounce.
Honestly, I'd bet about 70% of players have player comms sound off entirely, like myself.

and NPC sound off too. Then lower the gun sounds and music, and put on my own.

Perfect farming environment.

[real creek]

Almost any game I turn master down to like 30% and then fine tune from there. WTF are all these games so loud.

[kind pulsar]

Mhm. I don't activate VOIP in almost any online game. Toxicity has no place in my games, you know?

[real creek]

I just mute people in the social menu, super easy and quick.

[hybrid ore]

Video games have started to take queues from hollywood for sound design I swear.
Talking is uber quiet and then a trash rustle happens and it's a Nolan bwaaaaaam.

[kind pulsar]

Almost sounds like Pentco reactors for some players. All is fine and then BAM!

[opal radish]

i play the game with all sounds off and music on

[hybrid ore]

There's something very zen about gaming with no sound on but your own.

I blame that on my 4 digit timer in WF.

[kind pulsar]

Yup. I mostly just disable the OST and put on my own Playlist on Spotify. It can sometime lead to literal chills.

[soft knoll]

Many times over recent years iv found myself muting games and putting on my own music playlist and zone out for a while that way.

[kind pulsar]

Right?

[hybrid ore]

Podcasts. Find one that you have listened to a bunch before, one that isn't super interesting but is good for general noise, and just enjoy the white noise.

I like Podcats for that, the british one not the other one.

[thorny talon]

Nah yall missing out on socialising with people across the globe

[kind pulsar]

No, no. Lots of players are just in for toxicity and I'm tired of having to guess who'll be nice or bad.

So no VOIP

[soft knoll]

I'm antisocial oddly enough.. to me I'm not missing anything 😅

[hybrid ore]

There's nothing wrong with enjoying your own company.

[real creek]

I do like to hear pitter patter of little feets so I keep that on so I know where people are cause I've always got fog of war on, and I leave a little bit of music because they use music for more than just music. I'll just fire up music and listen over top if I'm solo farming and not chatting.

[thorny talon]

Nothing wrong in facing little bit of banter

[hybrid ore]

Most people without a filter are straight up crazy. I've been around online for almost 2 decades now and I'm sure about that.

The quiet is nice.

[thorny talon]

Bite back 😈

[hybrid ore]

Thank you for the demonstration.

[thorny talon]

Embrace being villian being silly & soft is boring 😎

[wooden hazel]

I love it when im in the dark zone

[burnt plank]

Cuz they focus all the time

[wooden hazel]

and I hear a twig snap somewhere behind me and I then proceed to light up that area with 500 rounds

Deer Mentality

[frozen meadow]

That's not deer mentality that's paranoia

[wooden hazel]

Thats called I didnt ask for your input

[frozen meadow]

free speech

[small spear]

too bad you posted in a public chat

[hybrid ore]

@wooden hazel You posted on a public forum, people can respond if they want to.
Drop the attitude.

[frozen meadow]

anyways backpack with perfect glass cannon who agrees

[opal radish]

ahh but glass cannon with glass cannon

is gonna be weird

[frozen meadow]

but get this

the amplifiers towards you stack

[opal radish]

yeah

[candid stag]

للاسف صدق المشاعر في هذا الزمن صاير شحيح

[opal radish]

110% amp dmg taken vs 55% damage dealt

[candid stag]

والغلا ان كان للشخص الخطأ يوجعك ادري ويعطيك الدرووووس

😔

[opal radish]

might want to change language from Urdu

[candid stag]

كسمكم

[candid stag]

Why

[frozen meadow]

no the damage dealt is 60 (30+30) and the damage taken is 160% * 160%

[frozen meadow]

this server is english only and mods will get mad

[candid stag]

That’s racist !

Why I can’t talk with my main language ?!

[frozen meadow]

im sorry thats not racism

[rough sleet]

it's their way of being able to moderate everything and also keep things as a single language for everyone to read

[kind pulsar]

I'm back

[opal radish]

even if you talk most people will not understand you and it's not racist

[opal radish]

they will add also one perfect and one non perfect version

like companion

[potent robin]

Iron horse raid

[frozen meadow]

Dark hours raid

[kind pulsar]

My bad, week days are non raid days for me

[potent robin]

How do I find players for the raids?

[opal radish]

what about double GC

[kind pulsar]

#lfg-raid-console

[potent robin]

Thanks

[kind pulsar]

You got it!

[full zinc]

Because no one is gonna understand what you are asking.

[kind pulsar]

Exactly. Some people here might be French, Spanish or even Russian but English is a main language, most people can speak it, let alone understand it compared to the latter.

[full zinc]

I think there is an allowance for non-English posts in #td2-clan-recruitment iirc

[burnt plank]

The feel when 1 tap hunter in countdown feel so good

[neon wyvern]

how

[burnt plank]

Well...

Steal kill to get buff

[neon wyvern]

nemesis with a HH stack?

[burnt plank]

Yep

55 -57 mil per shot if full stack

I like sniper more

But still need to aim better

[hoary wolf]

is it better to finish the story before grinding for gear?

[burnt plank]

I recommend finish story first

When you done, you can grind your gears

[neon wyvern]

real builds only exist at level 40

[burnt plank]

^
If he has NY expansion

Kinda weird when people super quiet in game

[hoary wolf]

thanks for the info!

so is it worth it to try and kill the nemisis in the descent for the exotic cache? im still fairly early game

[burnt plank]

Nemenis you need to collect parts to craft it

Its a charging bolt sniper rifle

[frozen meadow]

wrong nemesis

[frozen meadow]

countdown is better for exotic caches

[burnt plank]

Ohhhhh

Wait...

Which Nenemis??

[frozen meadow]

mate said descent lmao

[burnt plank]

RAWGHHHHHH I FORGOT IT

[hoary wolf]

im guessing countdown is an endgame thing?

[burnt plank]

I saw Nemenis then first thing in my head is snoipar rifle

[frozen meadow]

yes

dont be farming for anything until endgame

[burnt plank]

Is any new build for sniper rifle?

[frozen meadow]

how new

[burnt plank]

I mean...I still using 2 hotshots pieces

HH for chest and erm...I forgot th4 backpack

[frozen meadow]

the best build requires a unicorn

3 hotshot 2 HG 1 airaldi

[burnt plank]

I forgot the build sooo

I will go check it tomorrow

[frozen meadow]

^

[burnt plank]

Okie dokie

[frozen meadow]

but it is a unicorn vest so

or backpack

[burnt plank]

I think I will go for backpack cuz I need HH for my life

[frozen meadow]

what

the pieces are all gonna be the same

[burnt plank]

I had 2 HG and 2 hotshot...soooo

[frozen meadow]

one of the HG pieces would need to be a vest or backpack

[burnt plank]

Wait...what?

[frozen meadow]

yes lol?

[burnt plank]

Gotcha :]

Countdown spam tmr

[frozen meadow]

so youll need it to roll with the right talent and both the right attributes so you can reroll the core

[burnt plank]

Max headshot all the way

I tried Cavalier in CD but...

It bugged

[frozen meadow]

the bug is pure visual

it still works

[burnt plank]

Weird

[full zinc]

Why not 2hs 2 hg 1 airaldi 1walker. More raw weapon damage that scales better with hh

[frozen meadow]

1 walker is less damage

perfect headhunter doesnt do more damage

[burnt plank]

Well, I only have 48% every hazard protection ._.

[frozen meadow]

dont run cav with that hazpro

[full zinc]

No I mean all are weapon damage . Dont really need the extra headshot

[burnt plank]

Idk how to use it soo confuse for me

[frozen meadow]

5 weapon damage is worth less than 30 headshot

[burnt plank]

I will try your sniper build tmr

[full zinc]

Are you sure? Hh uses the wd not the hs

[small spear]

let me calc it out

[frozen meadow]

pls do

[full zinc]

Ide be interested to know for sure 👍

[burnt plank]

I saw 30% headshot damage on HS is very useful for me

[winter dew]

Hey guys.. Doing summit for the first time. I am on the fourth floor. Took care of hammers and all. But the room has no exit. It's one single floor with no objective left on it.

Is it a bug maybe?

[small spear]

i'll do it later tonight, at work currently

[frozen meadow]

theres 100% an exit

but what do you mean hammers lol

[burnt plank]

Big bad yellow boi with hammer

[frozen meadow]

heavies?

[real creek]

You've probably gotta climb up some filing cabinets.

[frozen meadow]

lmao true

[full zinc]

Is there a raised area/ second floor visible

[real creek]

They look stepped and don't have any yellow for indication.

I can see what they look like in my head too. Gib brain screenshot tool pls

[full zinc]

Yeah it's either a step or around a corner

[frozen meadow]

🗄️
🗄️🗄️

[real creek]

lol pretty much

[winter dew]

I don't see a second floor on here at all. But I am supposed to get on cabinets and do stuff?

[frozen meadow]

can you send a pic of where you are in #ask-td2-community

[winter dew]

The objective is simply to secure the area.

One sec.

[full zinc]

It there a computer you need to take over possibly

Secure the area indicated something isnt done... like hiding npc, server not destroyed, computer not taken over

[wooden hazel]

I swear I just heard someone doing something nsfw over mic on countdown wtf

[real creek]

Good for them.

[azure lintel]

How does one get out of world tier 5

[frozen meadow]

dlc

once you start warlords of new york youll be level 31 and then when you finish it youll be level 40

[signal tree]

Xihanpiei is a cheater, btw

[rough sleet]

🤔

[azure lintel]

Damn ):
