The game delta on me just as i was about to log off so for once the game helped🤣
ya i think it is ubi the Program wont load atm
it's giving instant lost connection?
ya
i havent played in a while, can someone explain a few things for me?
whats up
what ya need explained?
Question, is the ouroboros a common drop or do you have to get lucky?
u half to do new mission
its not a common drop
is gear score gone? and world tier? im lvl 40 but some of my gear says lvl 40 rank2
1% from bosses 10% from the chezt
then u hav 10% chance
Thank you
thank you, so all lvl 40 gear is the same?
yes, gear score is a misleading metric anyway
How do I unlock incursions?
buy and finish Warlords of New York and they should be up and ready as soon as you come back from NY
(i advise against going right for the incursion, get a decent damage build going and then try it out)
I’ve finished warlords, but I don’t see incursions anywhere
look on the left side of the DC map, you'll see a "Meret Estate" or "Paradise Lost"
I only see raids on left side of map
top left
send me a screenshot of your map
Do I have to finish meret estate before the other one will show up?
meret estate and paradise lost are the same
there is only one incursion in the game currently, i realize how my initial message could make it seem like there are multiple
Ahh okay, thank you clearing everything up. Now I gotta make a build so I can attempt the incursion
4pc striker w/bag coyote's mask ceska chest with obliterate, or 4pc striker with bag and chest and a ceska small piece are the two i've seen the most in the incursion
I have 4 piece striker, currently trying to get momento bag or coyote, but as for weapons I’m running st elmo and a ump. Should I swap the ump to a white death?
...no, not really
Or should I focus more on crit rate/damage?
crit rate and damage, yeah
Gotcha
Use diamond back, ull never have to build crit again lol
strikers is a very good set but it can feel very bad if you arent playing into its strengths- stacking and just shooting all the time
dont do this
I don’t even have diamond back
I'm like 99% sure the Striker build in the spreadsheet (pinned in #td2-build-advice) explains everything
Thank you, I’ll check it out. But would you recommend coyote or momento for st elmo? Or just try get both
coyote's 1000%
Gotcha, I’ll start focusing masks
memento is not great for a striker setup because you have to go grab the tokens on kills, and strikers is best when all redcore so you'll be shot to shreds if you try
I’m guessing momento is better for a up close shotgun build
Correct
Thank you
is vigilance good for johnson/martinez?
Run strikers instead
The perk wouldn’t even be active for over half the damage phase
If at all
Last question for strikers set, do you want all offensive? Or some skill/defensive?
If you're tryna DPS the boss just run 4 pc striker with the chest and bag
yeah i asked this guy to switched to bag and he got really mad
Running strikers without the bag is strange
he said his vigilance can drop dudes in the dz
Wouldn’t recommend striker for pvp lol unless you can engage immediately after or during a landmark you won’t build enough stacks to outperform other builds
🤔
The incursion isn’t dz
Dudes in DZ also don’t have 150mil Hp in armour
first time i saw someone this mad over a suggestion tbh
Any1 else players ended up with red hands some reason? I got blue gloves and still got red hands smh
Just strange lol
Could someone please help me complete this weeks Captiol building legendary mission?
The striker bag?
yeah the striker bag
i saw a grupo with vigilance for final boss and im kinda intrigued tbh
vigilance is overall good for regular content
Bag with vigi is better at low stacks, worse at full stacks.
incursion you will be squeezing every instance of DPS you can at max to full stacks so it less so
Thing is tho in the final boss stage using it might as well be worthless because taking any damage disables it
thats what im sayin
but wont martinez do dmg to u alot during dps phase
If healers are capable of keeping a whole team alive, are they immortal while solo? c:
well thats what i mean that vigilance is less relevant in incursion
vigilance is less relevant if you can keep max stack which are really easy in incursion at DPS phase on bosses
p easy to stack off martinez fatass body
ty tho i just wanna make sure cause he was p mad about it when i told him
np, since i'm just playing something else i kinda wrote in a rush
man i used tips the other with flamethrower
thought that maybe with the talent that buffs the damage and more ammo every third kill you could make is sustainable
nope, still bad and made me sad
What’s the easiest way to increase my crit chance?
...SHD watch?
farming gear, mods and weapon attachments
Oh, didn’t know that
bunch of brands give CHD and CHC
otherwise its just your gear that increases crit chance
10% from watch when that part is maxed,
For strikers, should I be aiming for core attribute: weapon damage, attributes as crit chance and damage? Or can only 1 roll at a time?
Can a gun play into that if it has crit chance or that specifically for the gun itself
wpn dmg, crit dmg
Add crit chance via mods?
Do you need crit chance with those two for high end or no?
u can get both crit dmg and chance on a high-end but not on a gearset
And if I’m aiming for coyote which 4 striker pieces should I aim for?
Holster gloves bp kneepads
Grupo or cezka with GC or olberiate
gc?
Glass cannon
absolutely not, do obliterate
Way to ruin my fun remi
ur grounded
No im not 😎
Uno reverse
Should I get both and see what one feels better for me
Cezka if you want extra CHC
Thank you for all the help, much appreciated
You can also run strained
What’s lefty?
me and my new friend looking for 2 to run through incursion with
Or join the other server which has voicechats
milo check galaxy
But its my day off 😑
on discord?
ur like my dad
I just got a lefty to drop, does it always come with perfect sledge? Or is it random
named items will always come with the perfect talent (or stat) that is associated with that named
named comes with specific talents or rolls
Okay thank you
lefty and stage left have perfect sledge, ect ect
Since I don’t have coyote yet, I just got catharsis. Would that be a good alternative for now?
no
Ones for damage ones for survivability
hi i want ask what is the hunter tag on countdown if kill it. What i done with it?
i never understand it 😄
cant open incur loot crates?? it was the hunters who stole them
never mess with hunters

More requisitions
honestly not understand guys ^_^
you mean more coins from countdown?
because i have the game in another language
😄
Check out YouTube first it gives step by step how to beat it, very useful! Just need a good team!
Yes
thx 🙂
yes more points, good run gets you 208 usually. good session from countdown gets you tremendous loot and to buy those caches.
how many add on points for every hunters? 🙂
Depends on the difficulty
i tpically use heroic
I think it's 24 each? I could be wrong
well good to know 🙂 thx again
Wait no it's twelve
I think
@undone timber do you remember I don't
It's either twelve eighteen or 24
the important is the range 😉
it's
+5 for mission complete
+24 per hunter dogtag
+129 for extracting
+1 per encounter
5 + (24 * 3) + 129 + (1 * 2) = 208
thx so much 😄
i think technically you can get 232 for getting all 4 hunter dogtags
but majority of the time you get 3
yep 🙂
it's actually pretty easy to get all 4 if people know where to go from insertion
but most ppl dont
understand
and assuming ppl bring red cores which to this day is still a problem
so many blues and yellows
yea one or two blues is fine if you're running striker
still all red is much much better
i running a custom build not all the time striker
there should be no danger of dying in CD
the hunter hard damage me with 80% reduction from elite XD
but im not a champion
for me yes 😄
oki 🙂
What is aggro?
Oh okay
ya. most of the time enemies will aggro on the player doing the most damage to them.
so if all the enemies are attacking your friends they don't think you're a threat 😂
So that what that is, i noticed sometimes enemies gain up on 1.
yeppp and it's usually the glass cannon dps guy haha
sadly shields no longer generate threat so tanks are in a bad spot in terms of game design
Shoot i got cornered so many times today cuz i wasn't after the green dudes
so if everyone is shooting you, it means you are doing a great job
that's bad guy code for "you're doing really great, keep it up"
you are doing even better if the people who are shooting end up dead before they can do that
Groups i been in seemed to gotten wipe today cuz they're too focused on killing the enemies that come back
Is there a code players generally know to follow in groups like follow the group leader's lead or does ever1 do their own thing in missions?
unless you're running with a regular group, not really
Was just wondering sometimes it seems we're not running in teams sometimes more like competing each other or som
But i use the match make a lot instead playing with friends
i just try to shoot enemies that i can see are going to flank me
how dropping level 100 mask? i not mean the season one but i see a led mask on one guy now. Is called level 100
It's from the premium track of a previous season, so unless they put it up for sale, you can't have it even if you're offering to pay
the season level 1-100 has a free track and a premium track. The premium track offers more caches, gear dyes, weapon skins and apparel items
It wasn’t in the last one I dont believe
ahhh ok 🙂 thx
Question, for gear to drop with max weapon damage/crit damage do I need to research it on the table or is it all down to chance?
Completely random but you get the best odds on legendary/heroic
You can optimise after
i got this AR "Tactical MK 16" feels really good and does good damage too o: i like how it feels almost as much as st elmo c:
can someone help me how come i can't still do checkout/payment in ubisoft store nothing happen when i click "pay with credit card via xsolla"
there hasnt been anything said in #server-status so i'd assume not
Ok thankyou
you arewelcome
My monitor got a screen line while playing Division 2. Is there any experience of that?
are perfect rolls rare?
like, for the core attribute and the attributes to drop as max
Not crazy rare or anything given you're on heroic
What is rare is having both attributes be maxed and exactly what you want
That way you can roll off the talent
or sometimes the core
Still haven't got an all yellow setup
Same here farming for 3 months
Aren’t yellows like the second easiest things to farm. Right behind gear sets
man.. wonder wen tha box in PL will get fixed🤔
Setup is blue core
I know. Im grinding that too
Desirable one has repair skills skill haste and opportunistic so can roll to yellow
Ouroboros chest is still once per week?
Yeah
😕
Idk if it's still bugged tho. Might still be knowing the devs 💀
whats the most straight forward way of finding the new exotic AR these days? just spam countdown?
It's a 2 in 1
Since you can get it either through targeted or exotic caches bought with countdown requisition
ahh fair
this event is so broken i love it.
Not sure where to post this but did anyone notice that in the Invaded Lincoln Memorial mission that there is one end boss missing...his name is Dan "Engles" Takahara
Does the third boss always spawn or only if your party size is 3 or larger?
I know there are 2 missions where the number of bosses scale with the party size
Story Roosevelt island and invaded air HQ
Someone should try if he spawns with 2 or more people...But I remember him spawning solo too tbh
Every other mission in the game I know of always spawns the same bosses
Because if you look at the normal Lincoln Memorial mission...3 bosses spawn solo too
wow, countdown really be dropping a lot
Did the chest reset in paradise lost ?
should be
what is a good talent to put on a vector that is not ranger that game gave me
``Players who opened the chest on the TU19 version (from Oct. 3rd to Oct. 16th) and are still experiencing the initial issue will need to wait until the exact same day they first played the Incursion on in order to open the chest again. For example, if the chest was first opened on a Friday, it will reset on the following Friday.
However, for those who opened the chest for the first time on TU19.1 starting from Oct. 17th, everything should already be functioning as intended.``
It's always gonna be once per week
Fast hands >strained > optimist
I went to reddit and made a post about the stupid gate strategy and apparently I'm in the wrong and its "very good"
This sucks so much my god
how come i can craft providence defence mask and vest but not backpack
Whoever was the yter that made this fucking gate strat popular
I curse them for life
new mask?
It do suc yo.
probably, but these Limited Time bundles are 99% rehashed content.
If this means I have a chance in the future of getting the Purifier Mask, I'm for it.
Otherwise, whatever
Which one?
ugh still cant buy dark path apparel with textiles
halloween mask
yeah it seems like it
i alr have the juggling emote but for some reason i can buy it again
Think I'll just join a group and immediately say
"Pls don't do the gate strat at lovebirds"
never heard of it
I hadn't heard of it until randoms started doing it
You stay in the gate spawn area and kill them.
And it's garbage and slower
Thx for clarifying
The idea is the turrets can't get you.
I've seen more times than not Johnson just throws it up top where it can't aim at us
That's the best case scenario
I've only seen her throw it on the pedestal when someone's not listening
You mean him
Must be the rare secret ending
for real cash?
yes
Monopoly money jnstead 
Lmao, I remember free Halloween masks previous years. Have never bought anything for real money except season tracks, because of the amount of items you get
I was close to buying credits for the Claire jacket
But I controlled myself and would you look at that they reran the RE event 😌
Yeah if everyone is in that entryway or hugging the outside of it he'll throw it up on top.
Is the best way to farm exotics as a new player to run countdown with targeted loot then buying crates with the tokens you earn?
Yeah this is the best exotic per hour for new players.
farm CD with the targeted loot of ur exotic
if it doesnt drop in CD use the CD tokens to buy the crates
Aight cool, so I haven’t been wasting my time
I accidentally deconned my bloody knuckles lol
Wai you no fav?
🤔
I never fav things lol
u might have smth up eevee
I started faving all my exos
I was deconning stuff in my stash and I'm like wait why did I get an exotic component
A good one and a meh one
(not hard to figure out which is which) 
Lmao
Bloody knuckles just sucks imo, only reason it's relevant is cuz of the attributes
Honestly was not expecting div2 to get status sticks, but here we are.
I've seen more talk about it cuz of using sledge with it
But that's it
status what
What is status sticks
a wooden stick with eclipse protocol logo on it
Agents can now have discord status on their watches
Bloodoop
It would be cool if ur group privacy made ur watch colour change
Private just turns it off
Do not disturb makes it red 👀
It's a Warframe thing.
They're melee weapons that enhance something else you do, usually indirectly.
while the (item) weapon itself is broadly useless.
Ah
It's kinda like the Kard, where it's only purpose on a red DPS build is to be held while you throw out a rez hive.
u cant tab ur enemies?
problem is melee in this game sucks
I wish melee would scale properly. Sucks seeing a melee hit do not even 1/20 of an enemies health, and to rely on an exotic shotgun to actually one tap red and purple enemies. Not even elite ones
Anything else about melee aside, think of it like this.
The Sweet Dreams is a great example. You can 1-hit kill any purple/red enemy, right? But once you do, then you are now surrounced by 5 of his buddies who are going to turn you into Agent pate'.
Melee in div2 is bad almost by design. You aren't really meant to hug enemies.
Only funny melee thing you can do in this game is Shocker Punch
Then again, probably only memable in the DZ and not crazily effective in PvE, if it were only to keep an enemy shocked for like 200-300% of the usual duration
Sure wish npc melee didn't just wreck our shield tbh
Division skills are made out of thin paste 😭
plot twist thats why i suggest a thousand times giving it a buff if oyu hit anything with melee, either defensive so you can run away in that situation or offensive so you cna kill the other 5 mofos surrounding you
The best melee item in div2 is the Claws Out holster, and that is purely due to the Doom 2016 quote on it.
just slap a 50% bonus rof on sweet dreams if you hit something with melee and cal it a day
Is the Incursion chest fixed now? 🤔
just read this since i'm lazy #td2-general-chat message
I read that last week, I'm asking if someone has actually cleared an Incursion today and they got their chest🙂
I think that melee hits should AT LEAST give a concussive effect to enemies
There is staggering.
They do stagger them, it's just that the stagger is small.
what do you mean by "concussive"? because technically that just means physical impact from contact.
think he meants that gives them confused status
Yea that. I forget it’s called that
i think it's fair for named/elites
Knowing div2 and how it forgets that Fragmentation Grenades are supposed to, ya know, fragment, it could mean it gives them a shock effect.
Telling me a frail Riker woman was swiped across the face with a 15 pound sniper rifle within a split second. And you’re not confused
I think they do yea
Only hard thing is the way they eat 70 bullets
If anything, the Hyena rusher is frail, they're drug addicts who can barely stand straight up.
That drug makes them fearless
i mean that should apply to all hyenas
Are we also on drugs if we use coyotes mask
technically yeah i guess
anyhow back to writting something dumb
Motivational drugs yea
Can we get a adrenaline effect when using coyotes then
Waiting for an exotic that makes me sprint faster. Just for fun
Lady death
lady death tho
There you go
Oh right. See I’m forgetting these things
bird shot dumb list of changes completely untested with no regards to balancing:
Merciless: make it you only need 5 stacks to prco the explosion
Diamondback/1887: Give it 7 rounds
Sweet dreams: Huge rof buff and bonus armor after meleeing, named and elites instead just get confused if hit from melee, let it works on robo dogs also
Big horn: Increase zoom scope and zoomed headshots now give 5 headshot stacks instead of 1.
Eagle bearer: Just improve accuracy and give it more headshot damage in the mods
Chameleon: improve magazine size to 60
Chatterbox: Kills reload more of the magazine and upgrade your rof tier by 1 if not maxed
Sacrum imperium: Turn into exotic Sig716, buff the scope, buff headshot damage, make tagging faster and by default also make affect enemies around tagged ones
too lazy to think more dumb ideas for now
its called disorient
Where's revert TIPS changes
Chatterbox imo needs more base damage increase
It's struggling in heroic content tbh
That goes for any P90 tbh
Ok apparently the supposed "fix" didn't work, just watched a streamer clearing Incursion and his chest is bugged too. Hopefully they fix it🙂🙂
I tried using emelines guard cuz i love preservation and idk
Felt underwhelming
Think I used it with HF
use them with HF and didnt have muhc problems
Maybe I'll try it again
well other than long range enemies but thats what you get with SMGs really
Safety distance barges in 
i mean thats probably my favourite SMG
and why i want an exotic headshot long range focused SMG
Yes I love safety distance too
Up there with the grudge
well we have the made up vector as an SMG posing as AR
we should have an AR posing as SMG exotic
Can we get a g36 exotic
Pls
I’ll still fight for an ACS12 exotic with extended drum and 400rpm minimum 
Being back the house but make it good
itll run out of ammo in under 30 seconds
Apartment is the new House, which means that by div3 it'll be "the flat-share".
Is there no vc anymore for this server
no they were removed a few months ago
For div 2?
cant, at school
kk
no just watching videos and shitposting here as usual
alr
weird stuff i want:
full auto secondary
non gun as a gun in weird slot (revolver as rifle, crossbow as MMR, nailgun as pistol...)
a gun with really good stats but can overheat and jam
more burst fire guns
shotgun revolver secondary
I wouldn't say no to adding the Judge to div2.
The Judge?
burst fire is awful
secondary category is very shallow
rock island vr80 shotgun is p good suggestion
also what the hell is a shotgun revolver
u never played cod ghosts and it shows
a revolver that can use shotgun ammo
Payday 2 shotgun revolver.
i played cod ghosts, i hate that game an regret buying it t othis day
i love how people associate judge to payday
I was going to go with Judge Dredd and call it the Lawgiver, but that would just be OP.
well it's kinda busted there
nailgun is a good suggestion
ar-pattern shotgun
don't let the milsimmers hear about it
origin 12 will make eevee complain
idk what any of these are
well for judge dredd it would need to implement the weird 8 different firing mode they have
origin 12, imagine the acs but higher rof
an ammo dump with low af damage?
Niche geek stuff, just embrace the nerdiness.
no
and people make jokes it looks like a boltgun
Don't make me bring up the flak-cannon, because I will.
the boys talking about guns 🤮
eevee talking about foxes ☺️
Swing and a miss there.
i think we need an m79 grenade launcher as exotic
well mostly niche stuff that could be added to the game that the weapon themselves already lend themselves as gimmicks
so easy for being exotic or diversity
None of this could be added to div2, since most of it is literally from aliens.
but its fun to discuss the idea.
we have the model for an awp (nemesis) but theres still no awp mmr
In that case, Jesus makes grilled cheese sandwiches.
well M79 could have worked better as alternative spec weapons
which is something i still wished we had
You want a worse grenade launcher?
could give it slighty larger radius and something like incendiary effect on top of regular explosive damage
How about a happy medium and just make the upgrades for the Spec Tree where you pick the grenade type.
they are reworking them.
didnt they cancel the rework tho
...wasnt that part of the scrapped part in spec reworks?
i mean i can believe that since they added granade selection by holding the button
guys and gals is the apparel advent buy keys busted as ive got 1k credits atm but the buy keys button greyed out
uh oh server restarting
make your bets will something get borked?
recovery, blue and yellow
you only want green one :( i miss tactical(yellow) because haha firerate buff
i like blue cause i can solo clear sky
remember the days of survivor link=PvP "I win" button
textiles or premium credits
AFAIK it's just "in the works".
i used to conceal myself w the pulse and then tact link anyone who tries to steal my dz loot
last i checked they outright cancelled it
Gonna need an official source for that one.
it seems unlikely, with how bad it needs balancing.
The page is still up lol you forgot to take it down
they said it on stream
great cant use my preimum credits to buy apparel keys like wtf
Just don't worry about it for now, I'm sure someone will find one eventually.
irish can you send a photo in #ask-td2-community of what youre seeing
they openly said it
lsat i heard they opted for reworking other stuff in the endgame and use kind of new gear for progression
looks like u gotta do more public executions
Why the said face someone stole your binoculars 
who
Me using binoculars rn 
enjoy, i'm just going to headhunt
"it's something we had to set aside".
it has not been actively cancelled. You really should watch the full conversation about it.
It's been effectively delayed indefinitely, but neither of them said "it's not happening".
thats what delayed indefinitely means
So likely at least for the DLC, if not later.
I stole that too you only have mad bomber
One way or the other, this is wrong.
delayed indefinitely = not happening = cancelled
I had this same exact convo with eevee on the day of the stream
lol
I know they also said in anither older stream
You can keep rewording it however you like, but it's still not accurate.
The spec rework was shelved cuz it didn't fit with their endgame rework they were doing if memory serves me right
they said delayed indefinitely, you agreed to that
Nice words for it's not happening
never back down never what
delayed indefinitely means its never happening
not happening until infinity time passes
which means not happening which means cancelled
Are you done yet?
I think they just chose to prioritise the endgame rework and seasons 2.0
And along with the Brooklyn dlc
im not understanding how what i said is not accurate
The stream directly counteracts that, the one you told me to watch.
They are not cancelling it, just pushing it back for later.
And the stream they say that page is no longer correct
Lol should have deleted it
Now this is getting really tiresome, I'mm go make a tea. Anyone want one?
I only have green or black.
Matcha is banging
earl-grey and base green, nothing fancy.
black tea, but i will calmly rewatch it
Green for me
because i'm sure of this one, i already had people calling me crazy and making stuff yesterday about the game
i have a box of camomile tea.. which i am too lazy to drink
and had to use wayback machine to find a patchnote because devs hate keeping notes
1 of each, gotcha.
🍵 🫖 you'll have to provide your own cups tho.
okay exact terminology is shelved
and it's not part of what we are designing for the new update
neither says cancelled or that it's coming back
honestly from rewatching they mention doing something that they consider more drastic and that old article is no longer correct
I think they had it planned but I feel like they then had bigger plans for endgame reworks and other things for the dlc
i think specs will be left in the dust because they will probably implement something else that will circunvent most of that
and i just think they decided to use stuff they already had done from the old spec rework in the game with the granade selection adn tips changes
Yea look I don't think specs were very successful in this game
but since the spec rework didnt go fully tips spear is just bad
TIL the dz resources cap at 999
first game build creating is pretty much free form purely based on gear you cna change at will
specs go hard against this and for them to be relevant they would need to drasticly change A LOT more to justify the limitations
(reduced damage against named enemies)
Specs should be used against the main targets not actively nerf their damage to them
so each granade would need to be very good to justify limiting them, each armor kit needs to very different ot justify not using a generic one for all
What am I gonna do use them on a purple bar yea thanks
case in point is how weapon bonuses were limited to certain weapons in each spec
and had to be reworked to let you choose because it goes hard against game basic build making
i wanted them to double down and make each unique bonuses for specs to be waaaay more important
Bring back sig skills 
we got stuck with this bad one that limits you enough that feels like a pebble in your shoe and not big enough to drasticly change how you play
Tac link go crazy
more firerate always welcome
I sure hope they learn from what did not work and their mistakes with div2 when going into div 3
This is their biggest chance they've had 2 games to learn what works and what doesn't
what mistakes
The biggest one
(genuine question, curious what youre thinking)
The dz
what about it
3 separate zones
Made the dz to cater to pve players, turns out who knew pve players still didn't wanna go in there
- Survivalist should have been buff/debuff spec based on causing status effect causing secondary effects either as buffs for the team or debuffs against enemies with the crossbow leaning on status effect arrows and traps instead of armor breaking
- Demo should have had way better granades and carry more of them to make use of explosive damage buffs the spec should give to focus on AOEs
- Sharpshooter is just basic and i think it should have focused more on using pulse to tag enemies to suppor the team and heavy single target damage, making armor breaking be part of the tac-50 instead of the shockwave and highlight weakpoins (let's waste rare ammo on a enemy weakpoin instead of just headshotting it)
- Firewall has decent mentality of giving shield and CC spec weapon, but granade is just lackluster and lacks threat mechanics to give the role of "tank"
gunner i just okay and i think it should have had more defensive and offensive bonus focused on being in cover - Technician should have had a spec weapon that could double up as defibrilator instead of doubling down on generic explosive damage
pvp is a disaster no matter what
If you compare this games dz to div1 I very much doubt you'll find many people that like div 2 dz compared to div 1
between the two games i do prefer div1 DZ, but i just dont like DZ at all
unless they get a dedicated team towards cheating prevention, dz will always be bad
so it's asking between broken glass and broken dirty glass
Actually there's a bigger mistake
Not having a good post launch content plan
Year 1 was a raid and some missions scattered through the year
they did have a plan
year 1 was a filler to expand on specs and plot to reach WONY
add ouro to dz 
they did have a plan and that plan was to work on expansions
Emphasis on good
This game should've been handled like destiny 2 post launch
Only good thing destiny has is it's post launch support
- they intended to have three raids
heck i remember when they accidentaly leaked global events early in year 1
Just budget cuts on episode 2
Make div 3 last for years
Have a expansive post launch plan with tons of stuff to release
They did..
div 2 is lasting for years with expansions even
game has bad management a bit from devs and a lot more from ubi suits
Majority of the problems this game has are at the fault of corporate
how long is server down for?
It's not down?
Sure but the biggest thing was they had planned to just abandon the game past s4
And then a whole year and a half basically with no content except for season reruns
oh ok..... got error message when i first tried but now it works 😄
i think it's in maintnance? people reported getting message in game about server restarting or something
that one is 100% on ubi suits
Should I stop by Burger king on the way home from school
Yea cuz they laid 2 games on top of massive
Avatar then the sw game
no
Ok
So div had to go
Until it didn't
to to an used book store
i mean a lot of the things i complain about the current quality of the game is due scramble to continue developtment when they just changed their minds 2 weeks after the game was meant to have ended and said people should work on it again
definetly not the devs choice to do that
Just a theory
But the screenwriters could have possibly had a whole lot planned for div 3 but the devs saw this as an opportunity to present this idea to corporate as more of div 2 and with the increased player count this idea got approved
Just a theory
for me investors are not smart people when it comes to video game developtment so they dont know what they are doing with it
I'm referring to putting dev costs into the game due to player counts rising
Aka increasing lifespan
Investors will do anything for money so you just gotta convince them to put it in the right place
Massive were (are?) tied in two big projects so ubi pushed another studio to take on main development, as massive wraps up avatar and star wars development of div 2 will slow down if not outright stop
massive is making that sw ubi game??
wouldn't be the first time a dev/publisher fkd the game up... after wony its like they forgot div 2 existed. didn't ubi almost pull supp from this game??
Yeah massive is developing star wars outlaws
oof so its gonna have crashes and bugs 🤣
Well yeah, game was meant to end in y2s4, two weeks after the last planned update they had investor meeting, they saw game had great number in sales and players and told people to go back to work
...but they already had told people who worked on it work on avatar and star wars so it caused a new dev team to handle the game and the whole story of how we reached here
My last character for basically a week
Can I pls get oreo 😭

The div 1 dz was my childhood, sad to see it split into 3 seperate zones
The White House should have been the "Green Zone" and the DZ should have been rings going outward, I'm not a DZ player for the PVP aspect, but there wasn't any "thrill" reason to visit DC DZ.
omfg the chick at the campus is selling commando
Guys am thinking about buying the WONY dlc but am kinda new to the game ,what exactly do i benefit from it?
many items and game modes are locked behind the DLC, id even say the game isnt complete without WONY
I was able to open the box despite doing so on Sunday
pretty much an expansion, more items, more missions, new map, and the current events adn so on
Once you get (back) to NYC, you are on a manhunt for Keener, and bosses will drop new skills to use. the Manhunts continue and further add skills you could use once back in DC as a fresh level 40
Is ubisoft offline?
only for you
🤔 makes sense just ubi things. honestly this game shits on the likes of breakpoint
So its worth the price tag?
yes but on a sale though
Does anyone here still need to do the hunter encounters?
just the wony ones
I already finished all of them, but I'm misssing the Death mask.
Because I died during the battle, and it never spawned again.
when you in doubt wait for a sale
Does it ever go on sale on consoles?
Ubisoft BRAVO-04 ERROR, sigh...
Typically a connection error. If people aren't reporting in mass it could be your net being funky, you tried turning it off and on again?
Thanks
Are we getting a new incursion with every season moving forward?
lol no
🥺
I got my oreo
On my last character aswell
It was meant to be 😌😌😌
like if you look at the roadmap, the future seasons dont even say that
suffers from the general issue that they had on raids, that is making tanks and skill builds relevants
since most of the time you just want DPS DPS DPS tp killa boss
They said if this one does well and people like it why not
But probably only after the dlc in s4 if there's more support beyond that
and a healer
Think it was yannick that said it in the last sotg
I would Say The New LMG Does Average Damage!
had like 2 drop on the same character 😏
skill build lol what a meme in incur
I had my main character open the chest twice in the same run
And got nothing lmao
Had to resort to my 3rd character
ive seen videos of the incursion, and mechanics dont seem to bad however, how does a full red core build survives 90467701 ads spawning from all sides c:
Cause they ded.
thats it, thats why tanks and other skill builds are kinda meh
turrets and drones are not great because bosses have invincibility periods so they can instead of kill adds just waste time shooting invincible bosses
EMP and decoys find some use but those are useful even for red builds
I am killing any add/chunga in 1 or less mag on average for any ad during almost all of the incursion.
i mean one tier 6 sticky bomb isnt doing more than 1 DPS striker is on a boss
Quick question. Is damage to targets out of cover testable in the range?
yes, every enemy is out of cover in there
Ok cool just checking. Having a crisis😂. I know alot of people commit to dttoc and dta but rn in the range I'm getting more DPS and overall bullet (crit) damage from an improvised knee pad with 2 crit damage mods over a fox's prayer with crit damage which is confusing me
Range DPS is broken
Higher crits is obvious but did you factor in your normal hits?
Yea. I see normal hits are higher but I'm at 60% crit chance on both builds. So overall losing DPS using damage to targets out of cover. Which is confusing me. It's a DZ build so the gear pieces are a bit hard to come by because I'm rolling cores instead of attributes and talents
DPS on the shooting range is unbelievable but comparing numbers often isn't
Unreliable**
One sec. I'll double check and send the stats
Yeah DTTOOC is 8% so the difference between white/blue numbers should be just that.
I still find it weird status effects count as crits only to health
Can someone check if fire ticks to health proc nego
is the chest fixed finally
``Players who opened the chest on the TU19 version (from Oct. 3rd to Oct. 16th) and are still experiencing the initial issue will need to wait until the exact same day they first played the Incursion on in order to open the chest again. For example, if the chest was first opened on a Friday, it will reset on the following Friday.
However, for those who opened the chest for the first time on TU19.1 starting from Oct. 17th, everything should already be functioning as intended.``
Eevee is the new chest reset messenger
Because it's not really broken lmao
It's hard reading the patch notes
People said things like "I spent hours of farming for nothing?"
Idk how to even respond to that
gg go next
?
give em that response
I was able to open the box yesterday tho. It's like I get 2 opening a week.
Just open it twice in one run
i still have yet to attempt the incusrion
That response makes no sense
nvm
I've had people open it twice in one run.
With fox's prayer on. 102k regular shots. 240k crits. That's fully optimized no loose ends. With improvised I'm getting 95k regular, 244k crits. But at 60% crit hit chance I'm hitting far more crits than regular shots
Also to note. The improvised knees are far from fully optimized (missing about 3% crit dmg) and I'm missing 18% crit damage on my SHD watch. Everything else is max out SHD wise
3% crit damage isn't "far from fully optimized" lol
Yeah but you see how it's worse right?
Yea I have too
Yeah it does less damage
I had 2 keys at one point
All blue cores. Dz build
Ah
yeah i was gon say
I've given up on dz since its irrelevant if you don't have a ton of unicorns and max expertise on everything
Also that's without any catharsis proc and I run Oro and shotty with versatile on my backpack for the 20% amp damage
is expertise still a thing in dz
Yes
bruh
It's been fun. I'm new to the game and only just decided to try dz after getting everything I wanted from PvE
When will that Trello board card become reality
The expertise in non invaded dz
Also people doing shit with determined
Well...that I can't plan for. Pain
See the problem with dz
inspected some guy who killed me once
saw smt like 24% weapon damage from expertise
never went back
There's a ridiculous difficulty curve to the point where you shouldn't go in dz at all unless you've farmed for a minimum of 20 hours
And even then you're still behind the competition
Yea expertise is a big problem in Dz
And has only just gotten worse
Because of expertise increasing every season
It's why they will probably remove expertise from non invaded dz
god i hope so
but ive seen a bunch of people whining about it whenever expertise removal is brought up
Also just saw this. Idk. Really. I'm losing about 9k on my regular damage gaining 4k crits which are in vast majority and on an unoptimized piece. And with 17% crits sitting in my watch. Idk which will outweigh it long run because they're almost equal rn with the crits slightly edging out the dttoc.
Everywhere in this game there will be complaints lol
people dont want fairness in PVP sometimes
ever*
What exploit?
They might be talking about the double box opening in the DZ? That's my guess.
expertise gotta be the mechanic with the most investment and least return ive seen ever c:
Once you've got everything it's something to spend/work towards.
and why it's gotta be killed in the dz and conflict
There's more than 1 problem with division pvp obviously, but I honestly think the massive barrier to entry for people new to pvp is the biggest one. So many people try it, get their teeth kicked in, and go "well never doing that again"
people dont call it an exploit but i consider it one; where you just spam create characters, go through the intro, boost to 30 and get the weekly
That's a feature, not a bug/glitch/exploit lol
The resource sink weekly? how do you carry that much components
When I first started...same. didn't touch it for a while. I had to realise the things that are at bare minimum necessary to survive in there. PvE stuff rarely works unless you got ppl to back you up
It's capped at 500
i disagree
youll just fast travel to a resource node, only takes an extra ~30 seconds
lincoln has all that in close proximity water east and comp/food north
big plots for the weekly
You guys don't just do a couple resource convoys?
I actually forget to do the weekly donation thing most weeks.
also not main agents 75% of the time.. at least for me
my 3 alts are mules with a basic ep build to gather resources
but for new agent level 30 exo spamming those plots are pretty nice
I pretty much only play on main. I used to play a bit on a second character but that's when I had one for speeds and one for normie stuffs.
yeah same. i carry my few builds on main . filled up alts with exo caches from a few events though so if there is ever a need to farm a specific exo i got like 50+chances anytime😅
id definitely say its exploitation
What about duplicating the watch with a new agent put through wony?
also
Guess it's a good thing you're not a dev 🍻
huh
Logging on after an issue has been fixed and you getting extra caches that you missed out on?
that isnt what we are talking about rivens
It's gaining something not intended originally.
its intended by the developers directly
So having the SHD watch be account-bound isn't intended?
recreating characters to get a weekly is not intended directly
it is intended, but making characters for the sole purpose of resource gain isnt
Where do you draw the line, is doing the LZ resource loop by opening stuff on the ground an exploit?
no because it only resets once per day and is limited
specifically restricted to avoid farming, mind you
So 24 hours is your limit, what if I just took a long time to finish WONY each run?
thats not what i said
It's a known thing about wony runs or new agent exo farm.
If it was an issue it woulda been on trello a long time ago like f10 ended up being
damn they killed our homeboi capt lewis
its not about the time of the limit, its about the presense of it
An exploit needs to be specifically defined, otherwise you could say that being able to perform a cover-to-cover move is an exploit as it makes you harder to hit.
if they placed a limitation preventing you from making a new character to once every few days my belief would change
ill define it then
in this context, exploitation is misuse of a game mechanic to gain large amounts of material/resource in a short amount of time, contrary to the intention the devs initially had for said mechanic
ure wasting 2-3hrs minimum to do a new character to lv40 though, not worth it. i wanna see someone speedrun and do it in 30mins
I think the walking alone would probably take 30 minutes.
you can do wony in 30 minutes
yes in ure dreams about division 2 anything is possible
no, its actually been done
Oh this is going to be a fun run to see.
Okay, send me a run of it done in 30minutes via a DM.
Ehhh 30 min if you've already done all the setup and have 2-3 carries.
but doable
Yeah it's just gotta go perfectly tho and you'll be leaving and joining games.
You haven't explained though, why should it be limited to every "few days" and not say, a week, 2?
thats up to debate, im just giving an example
It's a weird point to make is my point here. It's arbitrary to call WONY runs an exploit.
elaborate
That's what I'm asking you to do.
plus, to even have them be worthwhile, you need to have your SHD up high enough for it to matter. Usually I see 2k+ recommended.
XP exploits are another matter entirely. Those should've been rolled back, but that's not going to happen at this point.
i never did any xp exploits and id still argue its a problem
makes the veterans exponentially stronger to ridiculous extremes after the introduction of expertise
Are those two statements connected?
not really
Yeah was gonna say, not really the vets doing the xp exploits. Maybe some of the really old ones, but those weren't as crazy high as something like f10/Lau
i just think shd level was one of the worst additions to the game
I hate gearscore with a burning passion. I hated it in Odyssey (top 3 AC games IMO), I hated it in Breakpoint, and I didn't like it even back in div1.
i think they should have just capped the watch at 1000 with no scavenge points
Leave it uncapped, but remove anything but cosmetic from it.
Easy. No minor health boost, although I do like getting extra credits when I need them.
ghost recon had no reason being a open world game with rpg gear system... but thats just ubi now. just cope/paste all their games.
maybe leave it uncapped with zero actual gain per level then; i disagree with scavenge points and its existence
I liked the RPG gear system, I just didn't like the gear score.
i hate the scavenge point system
bring back giga chad scott mitchell
devaluing optimization and expertise for veteran players
power creep at its finest per se
I really don't care about it one way or the other. I got to endgame without using it, but I don't put down anyone who used that particular boost-up.
Honestly, we're lucky that div2 avoids the gearscore issue. Destiny 2 had that plaguing it for years, might still do.
I miss the uncapped attributes
I like the scavenge point system since it benefits me
One thing I do miss is DtE. I had a few godrolls of it back in the day and it was an amazing way to run stuff.
I understand why it's gone, but still. 😦
As I said; power creep at its finest
damage to everything?
Damage to elites
that would've been cool in countdown
There used to be a talent called hard hitter that had 25% (then 15%) damage to elites
I ran it on my old A&E build
The other thing I miss is the old Claws Out holster attributes.
that thing hit hard.
I'll take this kind of power creep then whatever they are doing with the newest exotics
Perfect versatile?
Or what's the other weapon swap talent
Starts with an A I think
Omg I just came up with a good talent idea that would be so much better than what the OB currently has
I think if it was really an issue and warranted changing, you wouldn't have to put a limit on shd gain or how fast you spam agents...
It can be a lot simpler..
So materials among an agent are a shared pool, at least what can be purchased with scavenging... a shared scavenging pool would totally negate wony runs.
You could technically still do the new agent thing but you would be pulling from a finite pool.
Damn it, I had sneakily moved us past that.
Shared pool would still influence xp farming
It couldn't be duplicated tho
I just want xp farming to go poof
Sorry Rivens 😅
Which is why I miss old gear 2.0 system
Regular xp farming like open world stuff isnt an issue. Having people populate the game is a good thing.
You have a problem with gaining it too quick which is why wony seems exploitive.
Just my take... I couldn't care less if someone runs wony on repeat. Personally only done it on my 3 alts once each to get them up to level. But it's almost a daily thing to hop in and help someone level
Did the box reset today in the incursion?
Eevee ur time has come (again)
``Players who opened the chest on the TU19 version (from Oct. 3rd to Oct. 16th) and are still experiencing the initial issue will need to wait until the exact same day they first played the Incursion on in order to open the chest again.

ctrl+c ctrl+v
Go to lfg channel
Bet just seen ty
Like it to insta level up the expertise system (which I never upgrade past 20, because of the amount of exo components needed)
nevermind, read two messages above
how can we know the day we first did the incursion ?
easiest way is to remember
well mine is eays since it was day 1, but yeah go by your own memory
noo
memory, my worst nightmare enemy
bird brain
i can remember bomberman gbc password for world 5 boss but i cant remember yesterday breakfast
kid me really wanted that number engraved in his mind
hope they will patch this problem
I remembered mine cuz i clipped my first clear so I knew the exact date
Are they going to make the Oreo easier for players to get it's so hard to find a decent group for incursion
doubt it.
24/29 no cat ears 😭
Day 1 random group clear trust yourself
I always wait till I've got all the keys to open any up.
I still have two RE keys
that's what i do every event. i dont touch apparel event boxes until i have farmed all of the keys up.
running around with half complete apparels is just sad.
Meep merp
I got both the cat backpack and the ears on my first 10
I remember when I was grinding the RE event and I wanted the Claire jacket so badly it waited till the last key to give it to me
hi why there are so many crash ?
i come back after one years and lot of crash ... how can i fix it
Hard to know what is the issue
how do you get keys for the event
Mine was just from having a controller pluged in my pc
Every 4 level ups you get one
ty @kind veldt
yeah i noticed a bunch of crashes on console too 🗿
at least 2/5 countdowns crash midway or towards the end
Well maybe is the countdown activity itself that causes the crash 🤔 game never crashed before on summit or open world, it always is on Countdown
i crash 5-6 time by game ...
Kinda scared to try Incursion, doing well and then it crash midway through 💀
or towards the end 💀 I mean i did crashed once right after getting the 4 NY Hunter masks and i crashed before i was able to pick them up
but i got the key so screw it im never doing that crap that requires shooting the stars and then day and night cycle to shoot windows and all of that BS ever again
Farming coyotes mask is so painful
RNG ether hates or loves you
No in between
Ya ether get the item right away or it takes 3 hours
This is why I don't plug controler into my pc
But I can understand some people are more comfortable playing pc games with a controller
@azure lintel Are you following the farming method?
Then either +Directives or Countdown.```
anb enemy coming out of a heli landed on me and insta killed me
i got fucking trampled
Tele-fragged, you don't see that much in games anymore.
grats!
no i didnt get fragged
i got fucking trampled
there was literally no other enemies on the map
"Tele-fragged" is a very old term where an enemy spawning in occupies the same space as you, and kills you.
Originally from IIRC Doom/Quake where if you stand on a teleporter and someone uses it, you die.
oh i thought you meant you just die randomly from an enemy
guys anyone wanna do legendary roosavelt we need 2 more high lvls .. DM me if u down
or add me i have same name and pic as here
Use the LFG channels
was there a server restart
no
Does dying and respawing lessen the rewards or exp if kept dying?
thank you!
Question, Newer player here trying to unlock technician. On state 3 stuck at complete the capital build mission. I've done it 3 times now and still will not complete the mission.
It was in the good old days,
Does it have to be done on a harder Difficulty?
non-invaded normal or higher
is there a way to turn off invaded?
yes you go to the difficulty selection menu and "toggle mission mode"
haha ty, that worked.
i saw a server restart incoming yesterday
unless it was a fluke
wdym coming yesterday
around
??
idm my international times
who told you this
the game
the game doesnt tell you days ahead of time
well it wasnt days...it was in 6 hours...
yeah had same to me
still confused as to what youre referring to
since you said "yesterday"
is it 6am for you?
9:33am
Fellow Singapore resident I see

I thought it was 3 per crate
Isn't it every 4 levels
well I think ur wrong

Almost there fam
Its 4
4 levels per key
ok mb then
does anyone know what the person in lfg means by "firestarter challenge"
Maybe it’s a firewall thing or something
best guess is firewall unlock challenges
Or some kind of commendation
since when did any of them involve firestarters
There's one that makes you light stuff on fire
nothing specifically with roosevelt
interesting 
probably challenge
wdym
you suceeded
Is there a channel for Dz?
no? too toxic
How do i get exotic components
farm heroic countdown for exo caches from the vendor
dz chests
yes that
oh hey, loooong time no see.
BRUH 28/29 NO CAT EARS 😭
I opened 21 of the boxes originally and got not a single cosmetic I wanted from the event
All pants all shoes all glasses
Well the good news is that since it's guaranteed to not give you repeats and you have another week to go while it's still free to get, just keep on going to get them all.
I already have all of them
Loved, lost, got a t-shirt, life stuff in general.
You know how it is.
remember old apparel events
a teammate just vaulted over the wall into fire instead of reviving me
lmao
then disconnected
You know what, that seems relatable.
sounds like me
after trying to pop an armour kit in open fire
i'd jump into fire too eeve
