[slender crystal]

Did your game crash or did it disconnect you from servers I believe he’s trying to ask @vivid plaza I think but double check to be sure

[vivid plaza]

oh if thats the case then yeah disconnected

just happened again while i was looking at clothes

[agile pendant]

could be bad server or your connection.

some servers are far from your location and lag

[slender crystal]

Makes sense🤔

[agile pendant]

[slender crystal]

[vivid plaza]

damn wish it didnt have to do it then

[twilit stag]

i got a weapon called little bee something o: marks people and do more weapon damage right? 🤔 sounds interesting for negotiators since you want to mark other enemies anyways

[azure lintel]

Anyone down for something stupid?

[agile pendant]

people use it with regulus to one shot stuff

get a full stacked busy bee > switch to regulus > one shot any boss

thats how people were doing incur speedruns

[twilit stag]

oh i see 🤔

I shame i dont have Regulus because need to raid a lot for that 😂

[agile pendant]

its worth it, start looking for raids on this server

[rough lintel]

Hello. We completed the outing without a single fall! They gave us a keychain! THEY DID NOT GIVE A MASK. What to do in this situation?!

[agile pendant]

u mean the incursion right??

[rough lintel]

Yes

[twilit stag]

yeah sounds liek an interesting gun to run with the dodge city holster 🤔 how many weeks does it take to farm the mats for regulus

[rough lintel]

We also have a screenshot...

[agile pendant]

it probably didn't register your flawless run(can happen if you died in the previous run and didn't reset properly) or someone did go down. i think also having reviver cancels it or something

[rough lintel]

So they gave us a keychain!

[agile pendant]

2-3 weeks but with multiple character you can do it in 1-2 weeks. also do donate to one quest at a time.

[agile pendant]

thats just for not dying at the wright boss(flame boss)

[vivid plaza]

came back to where i died and my stuff was still there yessir

[rough lintel]

Aaa ok

[agile pendant]

its not a big deal, just do the run again. make sure to reset properly if someone goes down

[slender crystal]

Does any ps player want to help me do for two missions really quick

[lone valve]

Check the lfg channels

[slender crystal]

Danka

[twilit stag]

wow i never really paid any attention to the holster, 100 stacks and each stack is 10% damage boost for 1 shot 🤔 Liberty already does like a million damage body shots, does that mean is 1000% damage boost with the dodge city holster

[full zinc]

pocket nuke

[twilit stag]

going to give that a spin with HB since cant really use exotic main guns with HB anyways because of the damn Pulse attachment

[lone valve]

You can but it's more of a hassle
Would have to run pulse /and headshot Alot

But yea I get what you mean

[full zinc]

5 seconds logged, already a backup call

[lone valve]

I only ever do clan backup calls /friends

[thick osprey]

bro

6man extraction on heroic countdown has me wondering where it goes wrong with a full group

[oak prawn]

Did you get clowns ?

Or did someone use a skilll it got hacked and bullied you ?

[glass forge]

I’m tryna get the elmo engine . What’s th best way to grind for it ?

[oak prawn]

Target loot ARS countdown

[glass forge]

I keep getting high end

[oak prawn]

Drop rate for exotics are low

In all activities

Legendary has the best %

But that legendary has to have ARS as targeted loot

[modern vapor]

thing is though I just got another acosta bag from a mob in the street

[fervent hare]

Does anyone know when the paradise lost chest resets?

[cedar mulch]

What is the best targeted loot to pick for highest amount of exotics in CD ?

[fervent hare]

Potato …. Assault rifle

[kind veldt]

anything that has an exotic? i dont think it necessary more exotics in a category means better chance just more diluted poll

[fervent hare]

I’ve dropped about 7 st Elmo’s in past 3 days alone

[cedar mulch]

Yeah I just rolled a god roll Elmo so it ate up all my exo parts

[heady depot]

Whats the best way to farm kills to expertiese im up to 15 and ive maily just got thr named stuff and skills to do

[cedar mulch]

Why is dttoc better then headshot damage for Elmo's btw?

[kind veldt]

headshot only apply to headshots, dttoc applies to all shots out of cover so it helps crits, body and headshots

[full zinc]

not all targets have heads, but all targets can be out of cover

[cedar mulch]

What is the highest headshot bonus for the weapon is it 10%?

[small spear]

yeah

also, you have a lot more headshot damage than you have dttooc

so dttooc wins

[cedar mulch]

Yeah I guess if they put hsd to 15% then it would be more valid

[kind veldt]

it would work well for certain weapons

[cedar mulch]

But no point in dropping all round damage buff for something that only gives headshot damage buff

[bitter wraith]

Xp been nerfed?

[kind veldt]

no changes to XP

[full zinc]

nothing recent

[cedar mulch]

Running world activities is the best for zp right now I believe like cp4 and hostages

[last valve]

only just picked up the division 2 a couple weeks ago. had some time off so been grinding heavy. need to find better gear and figuring out what i should do after beating the campaign

[fervent hare]

@last valve countdown is my go to farming activity. I legit put my striker build together in one night

Missed out on Elmo’s …. Countdown ….put my healer build together from there also. Use your credits to buy exotic caches or named caches . It’s a loot carnival in there

[full zinc]

current xp values without directives #ask-td2-community message

[last valve]

thanks mate! will look into it

just running around as a shieldy technician boi with an assault rifle and shotgun until i can get more loot and better builds

[ebon steeple]

Kinda surprised I've seen so many ppl with the new pumpkin mask already, I bought the famas skin instead

[lethal halo]

Jesus Christ the summit is no joke.

That’s a week and 2 hours I’ll never get back

[ebon steeple]

I just join other people's summit games

[frosty wadi]

Its a great bundle, two goated skins a limited time mask and gear dyes

[lethal halo]

I did it solo. Yeah you can imagine how fun that was

[frosty wadi]

Did you get all the ridgeway exotic components

[bitter wraith]

Why does a 3 named bounty only give 660k XP?

[lethal halo]

I have no idea- I really don’t

[ebon steeple]

Eh already had the mpx skin and the famas skin was like 2nd on my wishlist to return, that one weapon camo is pretty cool tho I just don't wanna spend that much

[lethal halo]

I just wanted this summit over with. I got exotic pieces tho

[frosty wadi]

Probably a no then

[lethal halo]

I wasn’t paying attention

[ebon steeple]

660k ain't that bad

[lethal halo]

Where the heck is the inverted leather holster-

[tropic breach]

Is the mission directives from strongholds really that bugging when choosing? It doesnt update when I select specific directives.

[thick osprey]

i kinda wish they released more gas mask variants

[cedar mulch]

Yeah I wished there was something to challenge the coyote for DPS build

[ebon steeple]

memento but that turns into group vs solo builds cuz memento for solo, coyote for group/solo

[frosty wadi]

Groupo mask

[cedar mulch]

Will they ever bring any more dlc to div2 or with div3 in the making is the game pretty much done content wise

[agile pendant]

countdown has a bigger player count in heroic or challenging??

[kind veldt]

we are getting a new expansion next year

[kind veldt]

challenging

[cedar mulch]

is it going to be bigger than the wlny one? because that was pretty dissapointing

[kind veldt]

i mean if you consider wony and everything that came after as part of one deal i thinkg you got a lot of stuff

and we dont know the size or if it's paid or not

considering wony got around 2 years of content, events and etc i think it's pretty good

i think it's brooklyn? they havent siad much and i dont remember everything

[hybrid ore]

The image used in the promo is of the Brooklyn Bridge.

[cedar mulch]

ah so it will be an expansion on the WLNY map you think?

[hybrid ore]

I'd put money down that it is its own Expansion style DLC, not just an addition to WONY.

We know basically nothing about it for now, knowing MSV we'll get a trailer about it a month or so before release.

[agile pendant]

loots the same both right?? like same level

[kind veldt]

heroic is better by but not much

[agile pendant]

i wouldnt call wony bad, it was just a bit small at least the map. bosses are fun

[kind veldt]

not worth the hassle i would say

[agile pendant]

keener 🥵

[cedar mulch]

yeah thats what i ment i felt for the £30 i paid the map size wasnt great and the story was okay i dont know if it was my own fault getting abit over hyped about going back to NYC

i mean i still cant work out if we are the good guys or not xD

[agile pendant]

thing is nyc still is better than dc

[hybrid ore]

The WONY map is only the intro to what the DLC provides.
Don't forget that with WONY you also get new enemy factions, a fairly short campaign, exotics, gearsets, named items, high-end stuff, skills, etc, etc.

[agile pendant]

even the shorter wony nyc

dc is so dull and boring

good parts of dc are hiden away in dz

[cedar mulch]

im hoping the division 3 is going to be outside of america maybe japan or something

[hybrid ore]

Strategic Homeland Division.
Something tells me it won't be outside of the US.

[cedar mulch]

why couldnt it be japanese people defending thier homeland lol

[hybrid ore]

Because it's an agency created by the US.
it's the same reason the FBI aren't based in Argentina.

[cedar mulch]

yeah but its a made up agency

[hybrid ore]

The SHD's primary goal is "continuity of government". We frankly have no interest in helping out other places.

It still follows rules and has an established lore.

[cedar mulch]

cant see why they couldnt call is the diwision home wand secuwity

[keen spade]

the expansion coming last is probably gonna be missions like coney / white oak/ zoo, new areas with new missions but not an actual full hub like NY, they have resources to make new areas like Meret estate but definitely not a full NY map like WONY

[hybrid ore]

@keen spade Look, if you're just going to make stuff up can it be at least fun? Add aliens in there or something.

[cedar mulch]

game based out of new mexico

[hybrid ore]

No one here has any idea of what is going on behind the scenes at MSV. We can speculate and assume, but that's all it is: assumptions.

[novel fjord]

has anyone done the math if damage to armor affects PvE and if it is better than DMG out of cover on mobs?

[cedar mulch]

thats what somebody who know whats going on would say

[hybrid ore]

@novel fjord It does, it's not.

[agile pendant]

speaking of shd lore wise do they get more authority and priority over other us agencies??

[hybrid ore]

Even if I did, (which I don't) I probably couldn't say either way.
But I don't so I can't.

[cedar mulch]

lies

[hybrid ore]

I mean, considering that there basically are no other government agencies anymore, by default yes.
but I see your question and I'd say the answer is: yes once Directive 51 was activated.

[agile pendant]

ofc it does lol, no its not better than damage to ooc. that works everywhere

[cedar mulch]

whats directive 51 and what was the 50 directives before it?

[lavish peak]

quick question im a newbie should i sell my items or decontruct them?

[kind veldt]

armor is just armor bar, which limites to veterans, elites and named enemies and rule out other stuff like robots, heavies and so on

[hybrid ore]

About 40 of them were just changing the juice flavours at the White House back and forth.
We're basically the US governments endgame solution to sticking around, so we definitely have say over places like the DEA, FBI, etc.

[hybrid ore]

The order at endgame that I follow is:
(Keep) > Recal Library > Expertise > Decon > Sell.

[kind veldt]

if there is no goverment we kick in, situation got bad and agents got activated

[cedar mulch]

what about secret services ? where do they fall into place

[hybrid ore]

Well considering that 2 of them murdered the last POTUS, they probably rank fairly low at this point.

[lavish peak]

im not in endgame im level 18 lol

[hybrid ore]

Then just get rid of anything you can't actively use, literally everything you collect below max level is junk except for Exotics.

[lavish peak]

and what is recall library?

[kind veldt]

Secret service line of duty is mostly vip protection and other odd jobs such as helping with treasury fraud against fake money

[cedar mulch]

what about the goverment divison that delt with transformers

sector 7

[hybrid ore]

Michael Bay blew them all up tragically while filming "Transformers 37: this one is about Knights again".

Anthony Hopkins came back for it.

[cedar mulch]

oh so does agent 47 work for the division?

[undone timber]

💀

[cedar mulch]

and does the continental hotel and the high table still exist during this pandemic?

or did john wick get money sick ?

[hybrid ore]

He's the one running the animal shelter in NYC.

[cedar mulch]

oh but zavala from d2 isnt working there anymore i guess because he is chilling with mr wicks wife and puppy

right?

[sour void]

How do I actually enjoy Descent? Am I doing something wrong outside of stacking Unhinged?"

[kind veldt]

eh you do you, but it's a roguelite more so it always comes down to weird ass combos you can make

[sour void]

I'm aware, I'm just jaded at the RNG and absolute nonsense the game throws at me, even though I took every step to minimize risk.

[wise basalt]

did they patch the incursion where even if u keep shooting at johnson, he's now able to fix the drone? I remember last time I did it, as long as u kept shooting johnson, it keeps him from fixing the drone

[kind veldt]

he doesnt work like that

if you deal enough damage which i think is around 40-50% of his armor he cancels what he is doing to deploy a healing box

then he goes back to fixing the drone

so with enough damage you hit him while he's fixing the drone, he cancels that to use healing box, goes back to fixing the drone

and you kill him in the middle of the second fix

[potent condor]

rivens hug

[twilit stag]

Imma try to Matchmake the incursion any tips? c: ive never done it

[jagged prism]

as long as you got a striker build should be good

[potent condor]

brings blue striker

[kind veldt]

Kill adds first worry about boss second

[mental stone]

If you see no healer , try to be the healer , adds always before the boss and everything should be fine if they know what they do

[timber hatch]

But like.... Don't...

[potent condor]

lmao hi raucey long time no see

[lone valve]

Blue striker but it's red and has self healing now

[opal radish]

With sleigher

[sour void]

Looking forward to trying out Ouroboros with Umbra in Golden Bullet.

What's the fire rate increase for killing an enemy assembling or wielding golden bullets?

[lapis kestrel]

What’s the best way to get the st Elmo Engine

[hybrid ore]

Same as 90% of loot in div2:

then either Directives or Countdown.```

[ebon steeple]

countdown AR target loot and buy exotic caches with the countdown credits

[agile pendant]

countdown targeted loot for ar and buy exotic caches

haha jinx

[agile pendant]

not sure but it feels like 30~50% rpm increase

are the dz exclusive named guns available at lv30 dz??

[ebon steeple]

why would u want lvl 30 copies

[sour void]

I'll take the median value with 40% then.

Assuming the ROF bonus with Umbra is additive, the equation would be 1350 RPM × 1.7

Which comes out to an average of 2300 RPM.

[agile pendant]

expertise

[ebon steeple]

Just do wony runs at that point

[agile pendant]

u mean shd > resource point to get printers/etc??

[ebon steeple]

Yeah

[agile pendant]

🤔

[ebon steeple]

It's what I did after I was running outta ez to donate stuff

[hybrid ore]

WONY runs or Countdown and decon the 40-some things you loot there.

[agile pendant]

already doing the countdown stuff> decon. currently maxing all gear sets out

[ebon steeple]

Yeah don't worry about the DZ named stuff, just get everything ez to donate done and also don't be afraid to equip things that aren't donatable to lvl up passively while u play and once u donated all the ez stuff grind wony, it's what I did til i got to 20 expertise and stopped cuz 20 exotic components per 1% upgrade is criminal

Prob get named caches with the countdown credits and donate that stuff too, or equip em to get passive expertise xp

[hybrid ore]

Replacing a less than vital piece of your build with something that's harder to farm out to get that passive xp during Countdown is my usual go-to.

"cya ceska", usually.

[ebon steeple]

I had like a 4 named piece "build" with 2 DPS pieces I was doing like half the dmg I'm used to doing but cuz i was still using st elmos I got by til the 4 named stuff was maxed

Suppose if I had the Ouroburos it woulda been a little more tolerable but eh

[agile pendant]

wait wtf at lv20 the price per level is 20 components??

[ebon steeple]

21+ is 20 components each upgrade

Why I stopped at 20, I'd rather sink those components into another gun than get 4% more dmg

[copper shoal]

I stopped at 0, I can do all content without expertise.

[ebon steeple]

Idk dmg boost is nice and it gives something to do in endgame, just wish it wasn't so expensive cuz u already gotta grind the XP to even have the ability to upgrade the lvl. Or at the very least the expertise upgrade affected every copy of that weapon and not just the individual weapon itself

[sour void]

I would do expertise if I wasn't stapped on Uncommon and Rare materials.

[ebon steeple]

Wony run

[twilit stag]

well first attempt of MM incursion didnt went too well c: but i expected that since there was someone running bullet king

[ebon steeple]

Bullet king hah

[agile pendant]

lol

[ebon steeple]

I don't like any of the LMGs tho

[twilit stag]

💀

[agile pendant]

mm incur players are absolute morons, rage inducing moments in that mode with mm players

[ebon steeple]

Yeah just find a group in the other div discord

Cuz that one still has vc

[twilit stag]

im ok at following orders, sometimes but im crap at callouts

[agile pendant]

randomly using sprinkers check, running dumb skill damage builds check, choking out and leaving at turrets check, not knowing what to do in lovebirds despite explanation check, not shooting johnson healbox and wonder why he healed to max check

[ebon steeple]

Call outs are super important

[agile pendant]

must have for flawless run, although some lucky bastard here did it with a random mm group

😒

[ebon steeple]

I kinda wanna get it flawless but idk, prob woulda been better before they fixed dmg phases

Mask is kinda mid anyways

[agile pendant]

i got it last week its not hard, just need a decent team. naw the mask is good as it hides the face fully, other hunter masks have the eyes visible

blood moon hunter mask is also good

[ebon steeple]

I've been pretty good at not getting down during the incursion but I was playing in a casual team just looking to clear so didn't get flawless, just haven't gone the extra mile to find a flawless only team, but I haven't switch off my mask combo since I found it out so new masks don't really interest me

[twilit stag]

i just feel im bad at this game in particular c: everything feels soo... glass canon

[ebon steeple]

Just gotta play DPS builds long enough to get the hang of it

[twilit stag]

Been years, how much longer 💀

[ebon steeple]

Or throw some armor cores in if u need to

[agile pendant]

i mean certain npcs make everyone paper like hunters lol they do so much damage for no reason

[twilit stag]

i just feel the ways to mitigate damage are very little, when you compare it to something like Destiny, you could argue the Raids in Destiny, at least some are.... considerably more mechanically complex but if you are about to die to ads you can just hide for like 5 seconds and regain all your health, or depending on the class you can recover health only by meleeing an enemy or something

[ebon steeple]

Not when u riot foam em hehe

[agile pendant]

use the shield

it can sponge soo much damage

[ebon steeple]

And skills that stun like riot foam or banshee pulse

[kind veldt]

you could switch a chestpiece for something that has unbreakable as safety net

i did do that for the flawless run

[frozen meadow]

does anyone here have the game open rn

anyone

[untold horizon]

yes

[frozen meadow]

do you have wony

[untold horizon]

ye

[frozen meadow]

can you check something for me

[untold horizon]

yes

[frozen meadow]

which faction currently has the D-railed control point taken over rn

on your map; its northeast of haven

[untold horizon]

new york?

[frozen meadow]

yes

[untold horizon]

im sorry man, idk wtf im looking at 😂

true sons

[frozen meadow]

its either riker or cleaner

or peacekeeper

[hybrid ore]

d-railed for me is Cleaners.

[untold horizon]

i have not progressed enough srry

[twilit stag]

managed to complete incursion, was excited to see a exo drop at the end, it was merciless

💀

[sterile ferry]

Yikes

[hybrid ore]

Game being too Ruthless today?

[twilit stag]

yeah that was unfortunate xD hopefully next week c:

but i did manage to clear it with randoms without mic so thats a win c:

[opal radish]

Lmao

[sterile ferry]

i see what you did there

[carmine bramble]

I completed incursion 7 times and still no oroborus, what the hell...

Is there anyway to increase chance of getting oroborus?

[elfin hazel]

nope

10% per weekly reset at chest 1% for bosses all the time

[carmine bramble]

Chest seem 1% chance more likely, lol.

Feels like

[lean shadow]

Like it's a huge Number. Play the damn game

[potent condor]

Ayo it’s a Dribby

[echo cloud]

its about time they move certain exotics away from raid locks like that imo

for casuals getting ravenous and regulus etc is just not really doable

not only that, there's no incentive to doing the raids any more if u have already unlocked the stuff

so its a double fail imo

[reef reef]

they already moved EB and Rav to DZ

[echo cloud]

ooh, ok then, fair enough

didnt know that.

[reef reef]

yea it was a few months ago

[echo cloud]

orouboros locked behind a low chance once per week is hella goofy tho

[reef reef]

its not though, it has a chance to drop from every boss in the incursion

[echo cloud]

but there's only 2

[reef reef]

4 actually

[echo cloud]

eh?

[reef reef]

dude at the end of tanker, wright, and the 2 final bosses

[echo cloud]

oh ok

[reef reef]

each has a chance to drop it

[echo cloud]

can u run that infinitely, but u only get the final chest once per week?

[reef reef]

like i see where you are coming from, its not great, but its part of the lootershooter schtick- there are things that are only in certain missions

yea, final chest is once a week

[echo cloud]

yeah i know

the chase is an important aspect as filler for looter shooters

but sometimes the chase can be made a bit too inconvenient

[reef reef]

i will say Oro currently is kinda the worse kinda chase, because its such a good gun- but even then its not needed for anything so its not too bad. And the 10% box and 1% chance from each boss is fine for a chase item

[echo cloud]

1% is a bit too low tho

[reef reef]

not really

considering the box is 10% and once a week, even just the existence of the boss drop oro is huge for player retention

if it was just the box, people would run it once and then wait- putting a small chance for the exo to drop from the boss means that people will run the incursion more, which is great

too small of a chance and no-one will see it happen, which just means people will do the normal way to get it (box), but if you put the chance too high and people will just farm the easy encounter instead of the whole thing

[echo cloud]

not if u are running it for 2 months and still dont get it, because thats entirely possible with RNG

thats not fine at all

[reef reef]

its possible even with the box dude, thats why stuff can be shared in the game

[hybrid ore]

It's like the Eagle Bearer before the nerfening.
Most players got their first from being shared by someone who already got the drop, me included.

[reef reef]

if you have a static group to play the stuff with, eventually one of you will( get it, and then that person can share- when/if they get a second copy, that goes to the next person who doesnt have it.

If this was Destiny, i'd agree with Aune, but stuff can be shared. that immediately makes it SO much better since you can specifically party up with people who already have the gun

[hybrid ore]

If this was Destiny, there would also be RNG-protection, making this a rather redundant conversation :p

I'm still not sure if it would be a good addition to div2.

[echo cloud]

its probably fine if u look at it from a more dedicated player's perspective. most ppl dont hang in discord or has an active clan/community they can organize with. most players are casual and playing it alone, getting random matchmaking. and for that type of player, its totally not fine at all

[spiral hedge]

Anyone want to help me farm Bighorn exotic? In legendary stronghold?

[twilit stag]

Doctor Home is not a bad choice for incursion healer right? 🤔 almost like a free 10% aok for everyone in the team

[hybrid ore]

This really is not that big of a deal. It's just another gun to have, you can easily complete the hardest content in the game without it.

[reef reef]

Its an incursion weapon. Its a chase weapon.

[reef reef]

#lfg-pc

[halcyon radish]

I completed over 20 random match, it's totally OK at this stage since most of player already kwtd

[reef reef]

the fact the incursion has matchmaking AND an infinite chance of the exo dropping means there is no reason for anyone to complain about it

[twilit stag]

i noticed almost nobody runs healer, actually my first clear before was without a healer at all 💀 so i decided to build myself a healer, already have BTSU gloves so is no big deal, easy af build to put togueter

[hybrid ore]

I never say no to a healer on a team, usually that one is me though.

even Countdown, going red FI and the team actively thanks you.

[twilit stag]

I have crappy aim specially for players running around

do you think the healing mines are a good idea to chase around people and drop them healing pools? instead of the canister i mean c:

[hybrid ore]

Healing chem and a heal hive, that's always my go-to for healing ppls.
Your aim gets better with practice, the arc is a lot more forgiving than you might think.

[twilit stag]

i doubt i will be accurate enough with the canister and is a big 20 something second cooldown per charge

[neon wyvern]

still waiting on the invisible heal Chem radius fix

😔 ⠀

[hybrid ore]

I've not come across that bug, or maybe I just didn't notice it.
mind explaining your perception of it?

[halcyon radish]

people prefer FI with shotty and opportunistic backpack since it provide greater damage buff, doctor home healing based on player's own armor so kinda fit hybrid build, but tbh it's a meh and only for fun.

[neon wyvern]

If you are not the one shooting the heal Chem launcher the radius is invisible to you. it still heals but you can't see it

the radius shows up just fine for thr user

[hybrid ore]

I don't use Doctor Home. My guns on an FI build are for killing (and scorpio, ya know 🤷‍♀️ ).
2 heal skills are more than enough for it.

[hybrid ore]

Oh yeah I don't even bother with that, I just got good at aiming where they are going to be running through, and/or taking a pause.

fun fact: most DPS players tend to basically turn into a slasher movie villain when they're about to kill and start to slooooowly walk forward. Perfect time for a heal!

[twilit stag]

Ever tried the little mine tho? it does the same thing but automatically c: well i guess people actually have to slow down to actually see where it drops the healing pool, is more automatic tho chasing people down

idk if it dies often 🤔

[hybrid ore]

The problem with it is that it's slow, and as a Red FI, you are relying on healing other people to heal yourself.

[neon wyvern]

it's a mine it's not dieing

[hybrid ore]

Seeker Mines can be shot, is what they are referring to.

[neon wyvern]

fixer drone however

[hybrid ore]

Now I want to see someone successfully use the Heal Trap as something that's not just a joke build.

[neon wyvern]

Repair trap overcharge build to make people haz pro for 15 seconds

[twilit stag]

fixer drone has to be targeted right, it doesnt flies automatically to heal people, u gotta send it

[unique summit]

lol i walk backwards toward cover 😂 learned the hard way getting tunnel vision toward enemy and a outkast runner comes out of nowhere

[neon wyvern]

other then that it's probably outclassed

[hybrid ore]

Now I'm picturing Andre 3000 as an Outcast Rusher and that made my day way better.

[neon wyvern]

yes

[unique summit]

arms raised coming in for a big hug

[twilit stag]

scorpio safe to use in incursion?

no bug anymore?

[neon wyvern]

not on wright

[undone timber]

Poison still phases him

[sterile ferry]

still bugged

[crystal notch]

is that bit about dps players true?

[reef reef]

a lot of players (when they have a healer) do aim in, start shooting, and just hold a direction while they unload on the enemy

i see it in pretty much every countdown i've ran over the last few weeks

[undone timber]

Dps players get a little too confident with a healer around sat in the open unloading on like 5 adds

[hybrid ore]

It's definitely not exclusive to div2, lemme just say that.
The little quirks of people you start to notice as an observer are really interesting.

[undone timber]

We’re a rather interesting species

[lapis kestrel]

Is summit floor 10 farm patched?

[hybrid ore]

The exp exploit part? Yes.

[lapis kestrel]

Ok

[oak steeple]

guys one question...

does ironworks base materials drops on incursion?

[reef reef]

i'd be suprised if it did, to be honest

[oak steeple]

cuz once i saw it dropped from the first boss...

[sterile ferry]

dark hour's 10-E base mats drops

[oak steeple]

no not the hard wiered stuff....

[sterile ferry]

10 E base isnt hard wired bruv

[oak steeple]

ohhhh right mb
it's negotiator...

and etc....

[sterile ferry]

nego, aces & tips

[sterile ferry]

i just soft locked wall street by taking out the APC using headhunter determined

[echo cloud]

why is the accuracy on white death so ass

literally cant hit shit with it

most memetastic sniper rifle

[reef reef]

are you like, trying to run around and snipe? bc while stationary, white death is as accurate as you are

[modern vapor]

why is public execution bugged

[crystal notch]

is it?

[modern vapor]

more like what is not bugged

[echo cloud]

false

shooting from cover and fully scoped in and it still decide to wing left of heads

its so garbage

[reef reef]

that seems like a you issue tho? i've never ever had a complaint about white death's accuracy, unless i was walking around and scoped in

[echo cloud]

all those MMR's are trash

aim circle rather than crosshair accuracy

[reef reef]

??? are you trying to hit people like, 7 miles away?

[echo cloud]

.

literally all guns in this game shoot in a cone pattern, with varying size, including MMR's

its horrible

and also hit reg

[reef reef]

i know they have a cone pattern, but unless i'm actively moving i'm hitting where i shoot

actually no i'm done here, see ya later

[kind dagger]

Skill issue to me

[sterile ferry]

to me too

[full zinc]

Skill issue 💯

[sterile ferry]

100%

[full zinc]

Can even quickscope with whitedeath

[halcyon radish]

complain won't make you better player💀

[thick cliff]

Hello guys)

[thick osprey]

sup

[thick cliff]

How are u?

[thick osprey]

pretty well

actually not pretty well, this ceska chest refuses to drop

[thick cliff]

😢

I would like chest providence with red inserts, but nothing(

[full zinc]

You both are targetting the specific brands in countdown and not chests, right?

[thick osprey]

yuh

i need a certain ceska backpack asw but backpacks are a pain to farm

[full zinc]

What build you going for?

[thick osprey]

i need a full red ceska backpack with vigilance for heartbreaker

seems like it also works for ND asw

[thick osprey]

right now i have one without a CHC roll tho

and then I need a ceska chest for completing my strikers build

[real moth]

That's a really useful backpack that will do well in lots of builds, especially gear set ones.

[thick osprey]

id imagine, ceska seems flexible

[real moth]

It'll be worth farming for. It also won't take too long hopefully because ceska drops primarily with red attrributes

[main aurora]

What's going on with the optimisation in this game? A few patches ago I was getting 120+ fps constantly on ultra, now I'm struggling to break 50...

[kind veldt]

No big changes, better check on your end

[modern vapor]

where can you get 80 meter headshots for the merit

[kind veldt]

Could try open world or potomac event center, i think the starting areas are very long

[modern vapor]

yeh just got accuracy only missing marksman

[thorny talon]

check by deleting ur division 2 documents folder and clean installing graphic drivers (clean installation is key word search in google)

[vapid light]

I wonder if they’re gonna give us that new hunter manhunt outfit in the future

It’s like this cloak or whatever, it’s so cool lol

[thick osprey]

if they do its gonna have to be as an outfit most likely

instead of individual pieces

[vapid light]

Works for me

[hybrid ore]

Stovepipe gave us a chest piece, wouldn't shock me if that's what it is.

[frozen meadow]

are we referring to the current manhunt?

aint no way we kill the recruiter js

[lone valve]

The reward is a patch lol

Unless smth happens in the finale itself that gives us smth else who knows
They've been doing these manhunt finales pretty damn well past few seasons

[frozen meadow]

mahri was a bit of a flop imo

[lone valve]

Was it tho
The storytelling was good

The way the civilians under BT tought we were the bad guys
Plus someone we rescued is definitely a spy

Considering the final cutscene

I like what they set up
Might come into play this season

[frozen meadow]

it could be you! it could be me!

it could be beekeeper jeff!

[thick osprey]

it's me guys

[hybrid ore]

just cut to a BT guy in full uniform but with big glasses and a fake beard in the corner.

[thick osprey]

sorry

[lone valve]

Don't think the castle has a shark tbh

[frozen meadow]

those stereotypical glasses with the big nose

[hybrid ore]

Groucho Marx ones, exactly!

[frozen meadow]

they have a fox though you just dont see it cuz it hides in the bunker

[thick osprey]

well they took mari for fish

[frozen meadow]

we be havin shark tacos tonight

[thick osprey]

this rounds on me

[hybrid ore]

There's not nearly enough water.
maybe they put the dwarf german shepard from Haven in a shark costume.

[frozen meadow]

black tusk raid castle just to take the dog and the next manhunt is rescuing the dog

you get the dog back but its cybernetically enhanced ridiculously

new skill unlocked

(i have the best ideas)

[full zinc]

WTH, how do i matchmake for open world and end up @ pentagon 🤣
games drunk and needs to sleep it off

[frozen meadow]

people doing open world matchmaking in front of the mission checkpoint perhaps?

[full zinc]

different map

[frozen meadow]

i had someone trick a countdown matchmake to dark hours normal mode

[thick osprey]

frame perfect travelled to pentagon as soon as you joined

[frozen meadow]

doesnt matter

[full zinc]

just funny

[frozen meadow]

its still open world if the mission isnt physically started

[frozen meadow]

i dont even know how they did it to this day

[thick osprey]

if we get warhounds i will give the slightest consideration to skill builds

[lone valve]

Only if they can use ziplines

[frozen meadow]

a mini warhound that you have to control

[frozen meadow]

did you see the reddit thread

[thick osprey]

in fact

give us a spider bot

[lone valve]

The one of a warhound using a zip line yea

[thick osprey]

no need for ziplines it can just climb walls

[frozen meadow]

i wish i had the photo of a warhound using the laptop still

[worn turret]

why climb when you can smash em

[thick osprey]

matter of fact

give us the razorback as a skill

[lone valve]

8 fucking players in countdown all using the mini warhound
Game combusts into flames

Then the hunters hack them all

[thick osprey]

the rusher going directly to the controlling player:

[frozen meadow]

omg i found some good clips of me being a jerk in dz

[thick osprey]

what were you doin

[frozen meadow]

i walked up to him, said "can you hold this for me" one-shot him, said "thanks" and killed him and left

[thick osprey]

☠️ ☠️

what did he do to deserve that 😭

[frozen meadow]

i just came out of a checkpoint too

[frozen meadow]

this was back when you went disavowed without actually triggering it. you went disavowed in invaded by actually shooting someone

so he had ABSOLUTELY NO WAY OF KNOWING if i was gonna shoot

[frozen meadow]

when wony first came out, the ninjabike messenger kneepads only dropped from invaded dz drops with a 5% drop rate

i have a clip of my squad rushing another that just took a supply drop, and deconstructing someone's kneepads

[thick osprey]

i wasnt even around back then

(thank god)

[frozen meadow]

i loved it, really do miss it

[thick osprey]

think they had a safezone for rogues back then asw didnt they

or some rogue exclusive area

[frozen meadow]

the rogue den

[lone valve]

Still pissed they removed that

[frozen meadow]

OH MY GOD WERE ONTO SOMETHING

[lone valve]

If ur not using the crook neck or boogeyman skin on ur non exotic weapons are you really in the Halloween spirit

[pliant sentinel]

yes

[lone valve]

No.
I make the rules

[digital snow]

I posted this to Reddit already, but I'm trying to get it noticed by the teams for possible consideration. There seems to be a need - just saying...Devs - Can We Puh-lease Get A Stash Box at the Start of the Incursion?
Suggestion
Seems like it would make things so much easier to have a stash box available at the start of the incursion so that any last-minute changes don't require a trip back to DC and an invite to the group. There is a stash box at the start of both raids and at every safe house. Wouldn't it make sense to have one at the Incursion, too? Thanks.

[real creek]

I mean camp white oak and manning don't either. Add it to all of them.

[hybrid ore]

and one to the White House lawn too.

you open the final chest in the Incursion? surprise! Stash box.

[real creek]

How about they just fix the checkpoints and give some fast travels for people who disconnect?

[tender wave]

Look at all this loot! Wait, it looks kind of familiar...

[echo cloud]

how about this

delete the stash completely and increase backpack size by +300

[hybrid ore]

Sokolova's master stroke: all loot boxes in DC are now stash boxes.

[hybrid ore]

I like to call that idea "your alts just all died".

[echo cloud]

alts make no sense in this game anyway

[shy musk]

i finally got st elmos..........

[hybrid ore]

Speak for yourself. I need 3 for my sheer amount of loadout setups.

[hybrid ore]

grats!

[real creek]

Wat? I use two characters and most have a speed character/normal character/PVP character or some combo mix or doubling of sorts.

Oh and mule/wony mats character and not to mention the maths people who have 0 SHD characters if they wanna test things.

[echo cloud]

just-- swap gear sets?

[real creek]

15 load outs is not enough.

[echo cloud]

every single looter RPG like this has the same problem

never ever has there been enough space in storage

literally all of them, same problem

devs never learned that people like to collect shit

[real creek]

Meh, learn what you need and don't keep the rest.

[shy musk]

i have hoarding problem

[real creek]

I just wish we had more loadouts. Like 20 would be super nice. I mean this is asking a lot but loadout hot keys.

[hybrid ore]

Want the easy solution to hoarding? Look at what you have, are there any purple? Junk it.
Can anything be made perfect attributes+talents by a recal+optimisation? If the item can't be, junk it.
Except for Exotics of course.
And after a while, if something isn't 85% of the way to perfect already, consider junking it.
Same goes for mods. Not 80-85% perfect? Bin.

[rich shadow]

Loadouts isn't hoarding

[real creek]

No one said it was yo.

[rich shadow]

Rivens needs to use the reply function then

[kind veldt]

people do have a point since we get a new brand and gear set every season

[rich shadow]

and 100% agree, more loadouts please

[hybrid ore]

The people already in the conversation are following it just fine.

[kind veldt]

not saying everything is a keeper but it will pile up

[rich shadow]

thats better

[hybrid ore]

It's okay if you don't understand, but there's no reason to be snarky.

[real creek]

Where we going?

[rich shadow]

Alton Towers?

[hybrid ore]

Apparently its "tell someone off for no reason" time and it's my turn.

I'mma skip my turn, I need tea.

[real creek]

You gonna carry me in the incursion Saturday?

[rich shadow]

My back will be killing me, but go on then...

[rich shadow]

me? snarky? give over

[real creek]

lol I'm busy Sunday tho and I've gotta farm some dumb builds this weekend too but I'll try to be on at a decent time Saturday for some runs if you are down. Did you get ouro? I don't remember.

[rich shadow]

got two, one from martinez and one from box

Sunday sounds good

and Saturday

[real creek]

Sunday no go. Saturday is go.

[rich shadow]

kk

[celest marten]

Ubisoft Connect down or something?

[kind veldt]

working on my end

[sterile ferry]

works fine for me

[kind veldt]

better check if it's not a localized outage

[shy musk]

works fine for me too

[frozen meadow]

currently analyzing light flickering patterns on the side of a building

[neon wyvern]

bro trying to find Morse code link

[frozen meadow]

i think it is morse code and another lead to a/the secret boss

[kind veldt]

in div2?

[shy musk]

tfw no enemies in a level 4 control point

[molten spire]

hmm, am tempted to get the Spooky Bundle, but I'm only really interested in the Busy Day MPX skin and the Stalker FAMAS skin

[frozen meadow]

no in skyrim

...yes in div2

[shy musk]

lol

[opal radish]

👀

[small magnet]

I gotta say, been playing Division since first game and took my first leaps into Darkzones yesterday and what a blast.

[sterile ferry]

you were blasted right outside of the checkpoint?

[small magnet]

nah

Ended up on my way back to an extraction to see tons of gunfire. bunch of yellow bars engaged with two other players. I run up and hit some cover and one of em aims at me me point blank, realizes im there to kill NPCs and we three kinda impromptu teamed up.

We ended up running a train on a Challenging landmark and then we all extracted our loot together. Did our wave emotes and of course mouse jiggling to say goodbye and yeah

I'm sure my next darkzone will be me getting blasted by a rogue agent, but still, was fun. Got some sweet loot out of it too

[tulip moon]

i only keep god rolls

[whole hull]

Tell me when your in the darkzone I will provide that experience lol

[small magnet]

lmao word

I am slowly realizing there is "Darkzone ettiqute"

I usually just jog through streets for loot and ads to kill and generally people just leave ya alone or help you if you're struggling with some enemies

[whole hull]

Mmm

I'd say thats more so if they are bored

[small magnet]

Must be getting lucky then. It kind of reminds me of like, Tarkov-lite in how you get loot and extract it

[whole hull]

I havent pvp'd a ton in div 2, but I did pvp alot in div 1. So what I would do is more often than not find people farming

Help them clear landmarks and such

Then as their bag got full I'd kill em and walk away with the loot

[small magnet]

lmao

[whole hull]

So they were more or less an extra 6-8 contaminated spaces

[small magnet]

sandbagging at its finest

[whole hull]

That also was when I needed gear and such

[small magnet]

I think my first loot I got was a Military M870 that does 1M total dmg

[whole hull]

Once I had everything I wanted in the game I either reversed it and farmed for them then gave them all my loot or just saved them helped them extract then left em alone

[small magnet]

Yeah thats what I'm saying like, people for the most part seem chill

I did see a SHD hack terminal which I assume is how you "go rogue" and enable your SHD tech to target other players

[whole hull]

My first experience in div 2 darkzone on coming back was a group of 4 finding solo players or groups of 2 then waiting and just flagging up on them and killing them

[tulip moon]

div 2 pvp🤮

[whole hull]

^ facts tho

[tulip moon]

3 darkzones 🤮

ok i will stop.

[whole hull]

smaller servers too

At least thats what I heard

[neon wyvern]

you can go rogue whenever u want those just make you stay rogue longer

[twilit stag]

the only people who pvp in the darkzone are groups of 3+ vs 1 player, never seen a single person with the guts to solo 1 v 1

[small magnet]

Ah

[twilit stag]

everyone only gets brave when they have company

[small magnet]

Yeah I had some of my Destiny 2 (the other D2) clanmates tell me that usually if you run solo in DZ's its assumed youre there to chill, but showing up in 3-4 man groups, people assume you are bringing the heat

[neon wyvern]

That's what conflict mode is for

[tropic breach]

For players w/ SHD lvl 1000-10,000+ what do you guys do now if you’ve completed or perfected your build?

[twilit stag]

as far as i know, expertise

[real creek]

Speed run.

[gilded perch]

are there any possible, the single people :1) cant win even 1v1, 2) the single people have no any friend that can group

[neon wyvern]

Trying for pvp at shd 1090

especially since I just got oreo

[small magnet]

idk im just happy to get exotic drops tbh

[neon wyvern]

power creep is gonna be so cool

[small magnet]

first one was Chameleon

[tropic breach]

Awesome so basically just enjoying the endgame now or creating a new character?

[whole hull]

Make more builds and level up more

[real creek]

I mean speed running, Like right now I'm doing the incursion and on our second night of practice we did it in 9:15 and it was scuff. Hoping for a mid 8 minute run tonight.

[small magnet]

Right now my build is just a zombie build. 1 million armor, with like 20k armor regen per second and 30k armor instant regen'd per kill

[twilit stag]

tbh you should always have a min of 3 Meta loadouts, Dps Striker, Future Initiative Healer and whatever the tanking meta is, i assume cavalier

[small magnet]

I wanna see if I can get some nice armor that will give me some more skill tiers but not give up regen. I think I also right now have like a permanent 20% dmg bonus to all weapons from a yellow armor dmg perk that dropped on my gloves

[real creek]

Swap that tank to a CC EP build and I'd say you gud.

[tropic breach]

Whats the max shd level to complete the Stats Level up?

[whole hull]

1k

That will let you max out all the trees in the watch

[tropic breach]

I see thats true I totally agree. Thanks. Cant wait to be in that position. Im only shd level 12. Just started a week ago

[tropic breach]

Does all damage(red) core and attributes stats to all weapons and equipments possible in endgame?

[real creek]

Everyone started somewhere. Just enjoy the game and scenery is my biggest suggestion to new players. After that I'd shoot for meta builds and find friends to teach you raids/lego missions.

[tender wave]

Helping others (in clan or just answering backup calls), testing yourself by eg speedrunning or soloing legendary, farming out the seasonal stuff, try running a hc character

[whole hull]

Yes you can go all red core for an end game build

[small spear]

yes, in most engagements it is possible to run all red

[whole hull]

My striker build is all red core

[neon wyvern]

teaching legendary missions

[small spear]

that's my job

[tulip moon]

all red is the way to go!

[neon wyvern]

I disagree

[whole hull]

Only time I run a blue core is when I am doing the incursion honestly

[tulip moon]

go ahead you are wrong tho

[neon wyvern]

atleast I can do legendary consistently

no need to reset 7 times

[tropic breach]

Awesome thanks guys. I started on console years ago. Came back to play td2 on PC. Missed the game so I plan to stay and reach atleast shd lvl 1000-10k haha.

[tulip moon]

1.9m armor user right here

[neon wyvern]

only with memento

[tropic breach]

Do you guys suggest just swapping builds than making another character for different build?

[neon wyvern]

use those 16 loadout slots

[broken solstice]

you can save plenty of builds on one character

[whole hull]

Imma keep it a stack dont aim for 10k

If your a dirty grinder like me you will grind your life away

[tulip moon]

gl getting 10k xd

[whole hull]

I'd say grind to 1k then just play for fun

[tulip moon]

yup

[neon wyvern]

1k takes a while

[whole hull]

Eh

[tropic breach]

Oh thats right i forgot about that. I was only thinking like keep changing from stash to equip lol. Loadouts definitely awesome feature. Easy access to swap.

[whole hull]

1k takes me about a week if that

[tulip moon]

you on now? you can join me if you want, im about to go farm some navy plaza for xp.

[neon wyvern]

I'm not interested in farming the same control point on 5 directives with determined hh build for the rest of my life tho

[tropic breach]

Does it give the same exp? For someone who is lv 50 then one is lv1000 do they get the same exp? Or it gets harder the higher the lvl?

[tropic breach]

Not right now thanks for the invite tho. Currently at work. Breaktime. 😄

[tulip moon]

same xp for everyone. and okey man 😄

[whole hull]

So then your methods of leveling take awhile, but leveling to 1k doesn't take long if your optimally grinding

[neon wyvern]

and optimal grinding like the example I pointed out is boring

[tulip moon]

bring back summit 10 floor🫡

[whole hull]

Okay but we aren't talking about what is boring and what is fun to level up to shd level 1000

[tulip moon]

my oxi build is gathering dust..

[neon wyvern]

For the average person it will take a while then because I'm sure most are not willing to adopt those optimal grinding methods

[whole hull]

Actually you'd be suprised

I've come across countless players that have sat down and grinded control points on repeat for days to push to shd level 1k so they can get those extra stats

[neon wyvern]

well I'll be dammed

[whole hull]

and I met them when they were at most shd level 50

[tropic breach]

Basically nobody likes to create another character since theres 16 loadouts available right?

[tulip moon]

game starts at 1k

[whole hull]

I talk to them in like 5-7 days and they like shd level 800

[real creek]

You should make and get all characters to level 40. It's free salvage points and mule space. Plus it depends on how far you take the game. It's not uncommon for people to have a normal character and a PVP character with dedicated loadouts.

The thing is you'll have to level all your specs again for any other character and money/keys aren't shared.

[neon wyvern]

how many loadouts do pvpers need

for there to be a second character

[whole hull]

I have 3 characters made. It is nice to have extra characters cause I can have one character outfitted with dark zone builds, another with raid builds/incursion builds, then the third with other PvE content

4th for a resource mule, but another plus to have these other characters is more space for loot

[real creek]

I have a clan member with 2 characters with full PVP loadouts and he has the same exact clothes on so people don't notice when he logs to swap character for counter builds.

[neon wyvern]

[real creek]

I mean I had a speed running character and a Normal game character. I don't do IH speeds anymore but I needed like 6 loadouts just for my roles. It wouldn't fit on my normal character so I seperated them.

Currently I only need three loadouts for speeds on the incursion so it's not a big deal but I'm out of loadouts right now so eh.

[gilded perch]

16 are still not enough

[thick osprey]

ive seen some solo manhunts before

[real creek]

I mean if you just do open world and lego with randoms a skill build 3-4 meta builds 1-2 pvp builds and your fav hybrid build for solo yeah loadout count isn't a big deal. You play much past that like heavy pvp, raids, or speed running and all those loadouts fill up fast.

[thick osprey]

described my loadout list in detail'

[jagged canyon]

Question: is there anyway to obtain old weapon skins from previous season passes. Or do I need to keep fingers crossed they put it in a bundle like with the stalker for the famas

[thick osprey]

targeted loot

oh skins?

nah dont think so

[jagged canyon]

Sh*t

[lone valve]

Sure wish they fixed the countdown loading bug where the screen goes beserk and then the hunters don't spawn
It's been months at this point

[real creek]

Aren't you supposed to be in the gate with martinez? Who let you out?

[lone valve]

I leave if any group attempts that now that I have oreo

I've had enough

[glacial oar]

Guys, what can i do to unlock on my second caracter all my specializations ? I do have them unlocked on my main car. I need points

[thick osprey]

countdown and that bug are inseperable

[glacial oar]

Where can i get them ?

On my second car, i have like 2-3 fully unlocked

[rich shadow]

I got three toons all full with loadouts... 4th slot is HC

[glacial oar]

So ?

[rich shadow]

Do invaded missions

[glacial oar]

I have done them regulary, nothing

Dont think thats it

[rich shadow]

U get 5 points per invaded mission

[glacial oar]

But waity a sec

Do i have to use that specialization in the mission that i lack points ?

[rich shadow]

Of course

[glacial oar]

🙆🏽

K

[rich shadow]

You only earn points if you need them

So use the spec you need to unlock

[real creek]

You need the spec on, SHD level up also grants 3 points and the invaded gives 5 on your first clear on reset. Could use the reanimated event to cheese some levels if you've got a D50 determined HH build.

[cerulean echo]

I just came back after 4 years... i have a rating of 254... dunno what that even means.. how do i raise it?

[thick osprey]

i think you need to find gear with a higher gear score

i don’t remember much bc i only stayed in level 30 for half an hour

Check out the DLC it’s where majority of the endgame playerbase is now

[potent condor]

World tier stuff eh

[real creek]

Gear score caps at 500 for level 30 I think. Better off getting the dlc and moving on imo

[inner elbow]

515

[lone valve]

Yea it's 515 when wony came out

[real creek]

Eww

[twilit stag]

Gate strat 🤔 is that for the incursion, yesterday everyone stayed at the entrance of the last boss but that's how Division 2 usually goes right c: i remember legendary missions and summit in legendary, people very rarely go in the open and decide to bunker in one spot

[cerulean echo]

i have warlords, my SHD is 255... how do i raise it and what is it? all gear is lvl 40... :S

i see ppl with SHD 6000..

[real creek]

Ahhh you said earlier it was GS. Just play the game and get better gear/builds and you'll figure it all out.

SHD level is just xp related so do high XP activities on the highest diff with as many directives as you can and you'll level quicker.

[frozen meadow]

Gate strat is shit

Basically just run n gun last boss and it'll take Like 5 minutes max

You can just brute force it

[real creek]

Gate strat is for those blue strikers we see people running.

[frozen meadow]

Lmao

[kind veldt]

gate strat is for people who cant asnwer basic questions

[twilit stag]

must be the first time in the history of me playing where peopel is actually brave to step out of the gate, well either brave or fool c: for example summit Legendary very last room, you will instantly die if you even attempt to step out

[frozen meadow]

Depends how high your damage is

[real creek]

Just all run out and killem.

[frozen meadow]

If you got good damage it's a piece of cake

[real creek]

Scorpio op yo

[frozen meadow]

All it takes is one shot to kill every hunter

[tulip moon]

Anyone wants to leech some xp?

[frozen meadow]

#lfg-pc

[twilit stag]

well yesterday we didnt have a healer either so there's that c: better to stick togueter to revive each other

[tulip moon]

dead channel

[frozen meadow]

There's your answer

[real creek]

I'm just at work yo

[frozen meadow]

:p

[frozen meadow]

No healer on lovebirds is a bad idea

[real creek]

I've done a 3 man wright no healer.

[twilit stag]

yeah but that's Matchmaking life, you get what you get

[frozen meadow]

This is why you don't matchmake

[cerulean echo]

im up for it!

[twilit stag]

takes way too long to find a group tried LFG for a bit and nope

[real creek]

Eevee, you know you can go from phase to phase on wright if you immune him under a new pipe and spray him once he reignites?

Can pretty much do the entire wright fight in 1 minute with no glitch/one shots.

[frozen meadow]

No but now I do

[real creek]

lol well we managed a 9:15 last night using it on a really scuff run so hopefully tonight we can get into 8 minute runs. I'm gonna get people to practice it and try it in pubs this weekend or next week. I thought peoples reaction to killing love birds at the same time was good I wonder how they'll respond to that.

[thick osprey]

fuck it

i’m trying the incursion today

[dry sequoia]

Is any one recruiting for a Xbox clan?

[real creek]

#td2-clan-recruitment

[real creek]

Are you in "The division" discord? I do a lot of pub runs there and you can find really good groups or see if someone is willing to show you the ropes.

[thick osprey]

if it’s the one i’m thinking of i think i’m banned there 😭

[agile pendant]

i wouldnt call it shit, its for smooth brains or whe ure team lacks hardcore level of dps

[real creek]

LOL

[frozen meadow]

that.... literally means its shit

[real creek]

gate strat is like 3-5 buddy lucy back in the day.

"pull them into seperate rooms."

[frozen meadow]

no because 3-5 was actually the meta back then

xD

[agile pendant]

i mean this one run all randos on comms talked more than they played, we barely beat wright. couldnt even touch the lovebirds so had to use the gate strat. hilariously martinez dropped ouro for me lmao

[real creek]

yeah we were doing both in the middle super early on.

[rough lintel]

Hello, the eagle falls in the open world from control points with a 0.3% chance?!

[agile pendant]

desperate measure call for desperate bad strats 🤣

[agile pendant]

nope, just from dz sorry

[frozen meadow]

before WONY no

god i used to have the dps for a 6/2

[frozen meadow]

no it has a 0% chance open world

[agile pendant]

outside of raids lv30 dz is your best bet for it, since lv30 has a smaller exotic pool than lv40 in terms of drop. but it still sucks and griefers will still kill you in dz

[real creek]

If we had like 3 people we could one shot lucy and all just burn buddy lol

[frozen meadow]

DZ drop chance is 0.024% per enemy kill, excluded from targeted loot

[rough lintel]

thanks

[thick osprey]

i wonder how many people lost a raid exotic to rogues so far

[agile pendant]

ure gonna need luck lol, i was searching it for 3 days did like 60-70 landmarks and only got one crappy pesti drop🤢

[frozen meadow]

its 1 in 4167 kills

so if you got say 20 kills per landmark

thats 209 landmarks

if your odds are perfect

[agile pendant]

they lose them all the time, i griefed this duo in lv30 since i downgraded my 2nd ouro. one of them had the rave, stole it from them.

[frozen meadow]

i wouldnt even steal it id just deconstruct it

[agile pendant]

lol thats just evil

[thick osprey]

if i managed to get a ravenous in dz i’d just disconnect right there

[frozen meadow]

i did it back in the day

[agile pendant]

bad eevee

[agile pendant]

its risky since the game doesn't autolog you out right away, you can still be killed.

[real creek]

Me having destroyed like 10 of them....

[frozen meadow]

deserved

if you get one-shot trying to put something up for extraction its a skill issue

[thick osprey]

said skill issue was entering the dark zone

[unborn drift]

Am I cool to skip the world tier stuff and go to NY. Level 30 and just completed the Capitol assault now in WT1.

I am getting the vibe doing all these tiers is like being new to WoW and not realizing you need to go to the expansions to level up and not grind the old end game stuff.

[real creek]

I guess WT1-5 progression has story in it but it's been years so I've forgotten. You can just boost and go to NY if you want tho, I suggest it to most players if they aren't interested in every bit of story.

[unborn drift]

Thank you

[thick osprey]

the story is black tusk is here so you kill them

[crystal notch]

and theb you do it every week?)

[thick osprey]

precisely

[real creek]

At some point you just stop doing invaded missions, you forget daily and even weekly projects exist after a certain point too, it's just eternal grinding.

[crystal notch]

grinding for what?

I'm genuinely curious, what do you all with several established and maxed builds do in the game?

[real creek]

I mostly speed run/teach/carry raids.

[crystal notch]

ooh, raids.. sounds cool

[real creek]

Yeah like tonight I'm gonna run some pub incursions maybe then speed runs for incursions from like 6:30-9, tomorrow I'm gonna carry/teach incursions for my clan and people and I'll do random raid helping in between.

[thick osprey]

the ✨niche✨ builds

[small spear]

i mostly speedrun legendaries and teach strats

[real creek]

This clan members?

[small spear]

sometimes my EU clan, sometimes just folks i play with

[real creek]

Noice. Teach dem papi.

[crystal notch]

and do you do the manhunt?

[real creek]

Eventually on a bored Saturday or something, well backup calls result in a bunch of manhunt junk too.

[kind veldt]

i just pop in for manhunt and apparel events mostly get what i need and go play something else

well new game modes also so had fun time doing the first week grind on incursion and got 2 exotics i needed so profit

[crystal notch]

i regret not farming Outguard apparel event hard enough:( still need the grizzly mask but that 1% from regular caches now is upsetting:(

[crystal notch]

2 exotics?

[real creek]

Probably a couple Ouros. Most want one for normie toon and pvp toon.

[crystal notch]

toon?

[real creek]

Just a gamer term for character.

[agile pendant]

real story is recruiter is either manny or kelso

[kind veldt]

ouros and EB

[thick osprey]

the recruiter is actually me

[kind veldt]

danm sad they fixed the raid drops in incursion

[crystal notch]

I'd hate to kill either :(

[real creek]

lol didn't expect it to be the EB, you've run the raids right?

[kind veldt]

nope

[agile pendant]

ahh yes pub incur aka thankless community service where you carry 3 mouth foaming buffoons🤣

[kind veldt]

but i did get 2 ouroboros, just shared the second one

[agile pendant]

isnt it funny they fixed that before all the bugs in incur that are still present like i dunno crate still being open...

[kind veldt]

i mean i also got stuff from teh chest but itwas just generic stuff

EB someone shared with me

so karma goes around

[crystal notch]

wish i could run raids for more exotics but damn i suck at staying alive still:/ maybe i should just grab reviver hive already

[agile pendant]

before that last patch i saw 2 eb dropped and they didnt share 🥲

[real creek]

Oh hell naw, I try to have a group of three I trust but can usually manage with just two of us.

[kind veldt]

20 clears and prob 17 were pubs

the other 3 were when grinding for flawless

[agile pendant]

my ratio is probably the same as well mostly pubs i played

[crystal notch]

why would you want to go flawless?

[oak prawn]

Mask

[real creek]

Meh mask you get.

[agile pendant]

DH is ez raid, just the rng is dumb you still dont get eb often

[oak prawn]

The mask is 1 of the better looking 1s

I'm actually curious if you join a group and they are on lovebirds and you complete the encounter with no deaths do you still get the mask

Or do you gotta do the whole incursion

[kind veldt]

i like masks

as far as i am aware it has to be the whole thing

[agile pendant]

i am not sure but i got it done and happy. its fun having a rare mask, heck even regular hunter mask are not common. guessing the playerbase doesnt collect them or know about them

[crystal notch]

i thought hunter masks were common..

[oak prawn]

Imagine if they added that in where you could just complete the lovebirds no deaths and you got the mask

It would ruin the fun if running flawless

[agile pendant]

i dont see people using them often or they dont equip them

[frozen meadow]

i just realized if ubisoft tried to follow their tos theyd have to ban half their playerbase

[kind veldt]

alts?

talking about potatos?
not liking their baguettes?

[crystal notch]

because base DC hunter masks have uncool bandana instead of cool hat:)

[oak prawn]

Thr masks need to cover the whole face even the ears

I hope they add that in

[crystal notch]

NYC masks do that

[oak prawn]

We only have the bloody and weight mask that covers the whole face

[kind veldt]

i want one with the netting

[agile pendant]

think bankai meant the whole face inc eyes

[oak prawn]

We have 1 but it's not alot of netting

[crystal notch]

technically there is one but it's not that cool

[agile pendant]

normal mask your toons eyes are visible

[kind veldt]

poncho, and hunter mask with netting thats what i want

[oak prawn]

I say we steal the recruiters poncho

[agile pendant]

dats a sick mask

[kind veldt]

and which one has netting?

[oak prawn]

Dose target number 2 drop next week ?

[agile pendant]

didnt devz say u could get the apparel of recruiter eventually??

[kind veldt]

it should since it's week 4 of season

[oak prawn]

Wouldn't surprise me I just want the poncho fuck the mask

[crystal notch]

new target, huh

[kind veldt]

if they said anything about that i havent heard about it

[oak prawn]

I imagine it be added in a future SP

Maybe

Or give it a bundle along with some premium credits

[crystal notch]

damn any time i remember the only manhunt I've completed in time, i feel stupid:(

trying to get all 4 targets and general Anderson in a single day was not the smartest idea..

[agile pendant]

funny how ubisoft fails to ban that justine guy on utube

[frozen meadow]

they can ban anyone who insults a dev

like just straight up take them off the platform

[lone valve]

Masks in this game are garbage simply because unlike div 1 you can't put any headgear with it on

[agile pendant]

meanwhile justin with his 60th undetecable hack vid on youtube 🤭

[lone valve]

it's just the straps showing
Reason I don't ever run hunter masks tbh

[lone valve]

They should ban vondoom
Nobody would care

People would cheer

[crystal notch]

only hunter ones, right?

[lone valve]

There's some masks that don't go over the head so yea

[frozen meadow]

i definitely would

[crystal notch]

i still want the grizzly mask:( it just looks cool imo

[agile pendant]

the dude with the yellow gear and skull mask?? why just wondering

[lone valve]

Should've seen him crying over the bans that happened last season for the xp exploit
Dude made a video on it only to get completely made fun of by like 90% of the community

Also made a video where he was gloating that he knew the devs watched his videos and was begging them to nerf st elmos

Dude is just a horrible yter all around

[agile pendant]

wont be the first time cry baby content creator try to use their platform to push changes. yeh he sounds dumb as hell. exp exploits are usually perma bans in other games/mmos

swtor had a infinite credit exploit couple of years ago, they banned few but more importantly they rolled back the server to the date before the exploit was happening

[oak prawn]

I was guilty of abusing that exploit

[agile pendant]

😏 bad boy

[oak prawn]

I got temporarily banned for a week

[agile pendant]

did they let you keep the credits??

[oak prawn]

No

[agile pendant]

lol damn yeh i know they rolled back the server, it was similar to that countdown vendor bug where the weapon had no cost and could be bought infinitely in div 2

[oak prawn]

After the week was up I logged back in and all tbe credits I got from the exploit were gone

[lone valve]

Yea cuz they rolled people back

[oak prawn]

Granted rn im sitting at 1 bill creds rn from selling a bunch of the OG stuff on the GTN

[agile pendant]

cartel stuff i am assuming?? yeh that can sell for a lot especially rare mounts

[oak prawn]

Cartel stuff and some things you can nk longer get I'm taking stuff from 2014-2017

I dont play as much anymore I've gotten everything in the game got all achievements etc

[fallow bronze]

guys, im a noob who just unlocked SHD watch, should I stick to Normal Global setting or change it to harder difficulty for more exp and loot?

[oak prawn]

I'd stick to normal/hard until you get a decent build then move up to challenging

I'd avoid doing heroic until you have a good build and more experience cause the jump from challgeing to heroic as rivens once put it is massive

[fallow bronze]

thanks, i was desperate for exp and loot % to get the things i want 🙂

[oak prawn]

Get a build going then move up to challenging

[real creek]

Build guides are pinned in the #td2-build-advice channel under the build hub tab, they open in to an easy to read evernot and have tons of information.

[tulip moon]

i did way too many navy plazas today i need help.

i'm addicted

[lone valve]

But why tho

[tulip moon]

xp

[lone valve]

I just go around and clear like half the map

[tulip moon]

if you know what to do navy plaza clear is 2-3minutes heroic 5 directives. 800k+ xp per clear

its pretty crazzyy

[small spear]

hear me out right

[tulip moon]

this global event goes hard

[lone valve]

Yea but me repeating the same thing over and over burns me out
Just a me thing

[small spear]

grab as many constitution hall bounties as much as possible, teleport to The Archive safehouse, activate bounty, complete in 1min, come back to safehouse and repeat

requires a turned off brain

[lone valve]

Requires a long ass video on the 2nd monitor

[tulip moon]

xd

[tulip moon]

need to try this.

[small spear]

mostly true sons bounties, but sometimes i saw outcast and black tusk bounties get dropped in constitution hall

[lone valve]

Outcasts bounties the easiest ones if you know what ur doing

[small spear]

farming pub execs is also very lucrative in and of itself

[lone valve]

Pub execution into a bountie

[full zinc]

I just been hitting outcast/true sons and cp on west side then go across Potomac and east mall.

[small spear]

i just farm all the pub execs i can until i get bored, and then bounties

[lone valve]

I always start with solar farm cuz mats heaven plus that whole area has so many mats

[full zinc]

I catch stuff between and run 80% of the way. Not losing memento stacks ft to safe house that way

I rarely even hit the cp boxes

Purely xp

[lone valve]

I once decided to grind the apparel event by just clearing the whole NYC map cuz why not

[hexed moss]

Am I tripping or the option to vote kick isn't there anymore ?

[real creek]

It's there but has a timer and goes away if someone called a vote already.

Timer counts down after they join I think.

[hexed moss]

@real creek well it wasn't called at all. There was a dude in our group doing nothing adn taunting us, we couldn't kick him out

[real creek]

Not sure if you can kick party lead too.

[hexed moss]

I was party lead

[real creek]

Hmmm idk usually you select their name in the group chat and ask option on the right allows you to b vote kick. Not sure if there is a /kick command tho.

[frozen meadow]

you cant kick if in an incursion group

[real creek]

WAT

Ewwww

[lone valve]

More gate strats hooray
Pls shoot me

[thick osprey]

what is the intended strat

[lone valve]

Kill drone while out of the gate and go middle to max damage Johnson

Gate strat doesn't work
Gets on vc and says
"I think they nerfed it" 😂😂😂

[pliant sentinel]

whats the best lmg rn

[agile pendant]

it can work it just sucks

its the last resort for strat

[agile pendant]

pesti is still top tier

[pliant sentinel]

pesti?

in this economy?

ok lemme try say less

[agile pendant]

yes

iron lungs is also up there

lmgs as a classic are just bad in div 2

[thick osprey]

i’m severely lacking in chest talents damn

[unique summit]

So I just accidentally came across something that's really helpful for managing inventory (for me at least).

The way I manage my inventory is I mark everything I keep as favorite. That way I don't deconstruct it by accident. I also heavily rely on loadouts. So if something doesn't have a loadout icon and a star icon then it goes into the stash.

Problem is sometimes I miss things or forget to mark them properly. I had things in loadouts that weren't starred. And I had junk items that I missed which were just taking up space.

Anyway I went to a vendor and on the sell screen there were all the items I needed to clean up! The sell screen only shows items that aren't starred... so it's a quick way to find junk you missed or items that are in loadouts but not starred.

Now every once in a while I'll pop by the vendor and check the sell screen. If it says "no items" then I'm good.

[agile pendant]

u can also transfer valuable gear to your loadout cache in boo, safehouses, etc

[unique summit]

You mean stash?

[agile pendant]

yes

[full zinc]

You should be able to sort inventory to show new items first [ ! ]
I do a lot of mass deletes. vendor is great for mods deleting

[tender wave]

you can, can't you? Pretty sure mine lists new items first (and the rest sorted by category)

there's sorting options in the Inventory Options page (go into one of the inventory submenus and look for the options prompt)

[full zinc]

Yeah itll be the ! Icon in options

[cedar mulch]

they need to make a way of getting tactical assessment faster and picking the one you want its so annoying

doing 50 CD and buying lots of optimization caches and still not getting the ones you need

[full zinc]

Craft them

If you dont have the blueprint gonna have to hit some control points 3+

[twilit stag]

for healers is people actually capable of going to the green spot of the hive to get healed or i have to babysit heal them

[unique summit]

Yea right now I sort by new items first. But sometimes stuff just gets missed. Or I forget to star something that ends up in a loadout. Vendor sell screen is like a nice sanity check.

[obtuse sequoia]

why can't I start matchmaking on heroic countdown?

[jagged prism]

yeah, think there's a new bug going around. I was playing today and some of my items i've had for ever ago comes up as a "new item" in my inventory

maybe you're too overpowered for heroic countdown?

[obtuse sequoia]

cap

for real tho i can't seem to start it, it's all blacked out.

[jagged prism]

maybe a bug

[obtuse sequoia]

fuckk a perfect time for me to buy that punch drunk mask
