I know but its kinda hard to avoid the βmetaβ
Depending on the content you're running you can do perfectly well with nego or a sniper build or HF or whatever
I basically only use striker for the incursion
I grabbed Ridgeway's with Hunter's Fury for the league bleeding enemies challenge
i mean my fun from comes from odd builds like collector OD, Aces & hotshost with ninjabackpack and so on
the +1 skill tier in technician doesnt seem to work for me, anyone know why?
You unlocked it in the tree?
yea
i tried respecing and putting the point back in still doesnt work
my momento+1 works fine tho
If you've got tech active and you've unlocked it, it should work.
i guess is a bug my skill tier just doesnt change
If you post a screenshot of it in #ask-td2-community I might be able to figure it out.
Just your build should do
ok thanks
I have doubt f100 farming produced a 45 second clear...
F10 with a solid strategy could be cleared in the time it took to chatter spam 6 oxi on the spawn door and then run into said oxi for the self delete
It used to give 5 levels or so per run
How long for the clear of both sections
2 minutes
Actually a video would be ideal if you know of 1
Yeah hold on lemme see if I can find one
some of these players are only good for increasing the health of the enemies fr
You can always create a group via LFG if you dislike pubs that much to call them useless.
i try π¦
what's the best way to get Foundry gear outside of Countdown? can't seem to solo it and a full 8man seems to take forever to form
Run whatever targeted loot location there is for foundry
Thanks
Challenging difficulty is the fastest CD to form.
You can also select target loot in summit which is easy to solo
Thanks as well
@opal radish are you busy rn
Nope but I don't have a pc rn π₯²
What do you need?
need someone to test something with
I haven't played since like February what I miss π
new gamemode and incursion
New power creep in the game
Oreo go brrrr
Hello world
Does the memento bag lvl 30 work in warlords ?
Does anyone have a location / fast way to disorient cleaners? ^^
Use creeping death with hunters Fury
@small spear fair
with hotshot and blessing if i do 1 headshot the miss then do 1 headshot does the blessing trait reset allowing me to miss 1 again?
blessed
What difficulty was you trying to run CD
Challenging and heroic tend to fill up the fastest
Well considering I'm a returning player and first time doing it, thought that Normal would happen, but guess I'll jump into the hot waters and try Challenging
Fair
Nobody does normal cd, cause it doesnt have as many gear drops
People do challenging+ so they can farm gear and exotics
Although there is builds which allow you to solo normal countdown
gotaa farm some gear to get those builds to solo it, may as well jump into challenging and get the higher gear to build a better template
True
I haven't ever stepped foot in countdown
Pretty sure my megamap has been bugged since I've gotten the general anderson manhunt mission, since Countdown doesnt appear at the top right
Least its still accessible from pilot
if you haven't done the DZ recon side missions yet, do those - I hear the Countdown map marker doesn't appear until you do
Any way to set the loot for CD before getting in there? seems there's a timer and all
yeah, you can set it from the map marker (if you have it) or by setting Summit target loot since they're the same
Thanks
think i only have 13 exotic guns
Floor 97. Summit finally learns how to front load a room.
i wish that contamination was a lot more prevalent in div 2 like it was in div 1, it actually felt like a cool game mechanic and the contamination events in dz were especially fun and unique but i think that unfortunately its lore accurate to be less prevalent in 2
if the division had a TV series like jack ryan is honestly watch it
Hope everyone's having a great Weekend
Same to you
anyone see if dark winter on sale at any vendors this week?
how can i convince people that just cuase im lvl 65 doesnt mean i cant do a heroic countdown?
like seriously what do i need to do
been very quiet today hardly anyone talking on here
people must be busy playing good games
like what? so many games are so bad these days
I got kicked out twice from Challenging, I did manage to get 2 runs and decent gear (better than what I have), and starting to get a hang of the areas and shortcuts, it was a bit hectic at first.
But getting kicked from groups means we get to experience it less and learn less
Being kicked is an unfortunate result. You can initiate the match yourself then the only options jerks have is to leave group π€
if you want we can run some together idm challenging just need better drops sadly
have to finish the mission im currently in first though
what content you doing never done any raids or decent or countdown
is there a way to see how many hours i have played Div 2?
ubi launcher has that
i play it from ubisoft tho i do also own it on steam
can i see it while ingame as im playign with GFN as i cant be bothered to play it on my pc
currently cooking for the family
when you select your agent it should show time played somewhere
most of my time is on 1 agent but prob have 20hrs extra
will take a look
15 days 5hrs 50mins not too bad but i feel im still no good
I need new friends to play division 2 with, anyone?
its like i have close to 2k hrs in project zomboid and still feel like im new
Does CD have the chance to give "the" D50 needed to build Liberty? or still pure RNG in the world?
where is the secret vender i dont remember its locatios it could be the only one i rember is uder the rosavelt bridge
Lol happened to me earlier 4 times and iβm at 589 currently. The only kickable criteria for cd iβd probably say would be someone running a skill build on heroic maybe? Funny enough iβve seen a bunch of 1000+ shd agents running skill builds and spamming them during extraction for them all to be hacked and wipe out half of the team lol
low level they might suspect you are a troller or something there have been times where people have said we got killed by hacked skills
Can they hack foam spam?
@elfin narwhal @modern vapor pm cuas i cant send images here
yes, any pistol target can drop d50
to all the people who run to the extract point 0.0002 seconds after clearing the final objective, please never queue countdown again
From someone learning, what's the reason?
nope, foam, sticky bombs, shield, traps all safe.
hunters spawn in and cut you off super early
so if one rambo wannabe runs in well before everyone else, the entire group of enemies runs wayyyyy far forward instead of being a shooting gallery
yeah that would have been me if these guys didn't just leeroy jenkins their way into the extract zone
Good to know. I learned to stick with the group regardless.
it's good to stick with the group
it's the fault of the one guy who doesn't, is the issue
Just curious cus I cant find it. Whats the item that spawns a blue triangle cone underneath and behind the character when deploying a shield?
firewall crusader shield
striker shield
anyone in that cone gets bonus damage based on how many people are in front of it
that's cause it's smaller than the reasons to use a bomber drone
you have to sit in 5 square feet of space
striker shield should make people shoot through you
they don't even tell us what the bonus damage is per enemy either π€
I'm struggling with this. Not even legendaries want to drop mods for hazpro.
play countdown and set loot to the polar opposite of what you're looking for
5-11%
no hazpro mods. there are specific hazard resist though. i just use haste mods and rolled hazpro on the gear, way easier to be immune to everything
Desire sensor is real.
that's because legendary is full of explosions
I'm 80+ countdown runs and 300+ crafts into trying to get HSD + RS brazos kneepads
I play countdown with other people for one day and one of them got it
should've just crafted it
correct
oh shit
you're not wrong
luck issue
π€£
at this point, I should have gotten it at least once
and then I'll turn around and get god rolled scorpio off of a random hard patrol
I did get a 25mil damage grenade on the last area though, so that's something
collector op?
@coral musk all im trying to get is some hana u corp gear with atleast 1 maxed out skill dmg or skill haste and ive done 20 runs and never got one. on heroic aswell
why
in very niche situations, yes
the place to get God rolls is legendary summit
well icant solo that can i?
cd is just getting the correct rolls
and there no way im able to matchmake into that at lvl 65
I've tried matchmaking into legendary missions sometimes to varying amounts of success
the most common problem is that people run striker, and only striker, and nothing else, ever, and have nothing to swap to
so if we die, they just leave and likely requeue, and don't think twice
meanwhile, one good CC build would make it a cake walk, but nobody even thinks to make one
is the named enforcer shotgun obtainable in the dz or is that just a rumor?
I'll say no, but knowing the game recently, not sure
things keep dropping in the wrong pools, but never the enforcer
dont think so as it was an bonus for WONY pre order i think, thats the named super 90 shotgun right?
need to go through all my control points on challenging anyone want to tag along and help?
I'll tag along for a bit
ill dm you want to call or just get to it
eu
alrighty, so I won't just see you running around the white house
no im going to do as many of the points as i can do within the next two hours
got to get the crafting blueprints
works with all weapons
nice i hit 42m with it shame its ammo is sparce
get enough passive ammo to kill 1 per 30 seconds tho
oof only 9.2m without headhunter not even worth using it at that amout
if only there was a gear set that gave you ammo for signature weapon AND it didnt suck
Tips got hit hardd
i did have 4 tip with chainkill
that did 42m but the 4 tipe with both backpack and chest for tip only did 9.2m
Hotshot is basically bis for snipers
it works with chem launcher pellets
as the chest does give 1 ammo on the third kill but not worth loosing chainkill
i was using hotshot i just needed 30 kills for the event thing
tots is still hilarious fun as a sniper build
I thought they fixed that
nah, foam hh still works
running high loop Descent's, keep getting "subset complete" reward out of nowhere, anyone know whats going on with that?
So I stopped playing resurgence
It feels like a tencent game
Why does this giant recon drone keep resetting its flight path?
Wdym?
Sorry.. lotsa gunfire going on now....
I mean, it flies along for a bit, then there's a horrible grinding noise and it zips backwards along it's previous path, repeat and rinse a few times.
That sounds intentional but idk
Well any time it wants to buzz off somewhere else is fine by me.
Lol
I keep reading the incursion paradise lost scales off world difficulty setting. Is this true or malarkey?
It used to but not now
I remember normal made it easier I'm not sure if that's still the case
Ok game. Thanks π
Man I wish 1886 had a top rail.
1886 Tactical soon (tm)
Also, do you think Division 2 should have the option to switch to a first person mode?
Division ain't made for fpp
massive disconnection today
that's probably going to be one of the Resurgence unique selling points
beat keener 
I did
Same here man. I just beat him myself
@azure lintel @cerulean roost #ask-td2-community message
devs, games got long quest and we getting bugged door not opening after destroying some machines. jesus christ this is a waste of time
roosevelt and maning zoo consecutive bugs ffs
never heard of this
ive gon so far already I dont wanna repeat this S just becuase this door wont open
destroy the big red gas tank?
and buying that specialization is expensive AF
yes I did and it shud open just how I saw from someones video
if it's not on heroic you can just die
and reset from checkpoint
use a burn sticky or smth
also did, gg its not working. and this is only stage 2. ffs. I still have 3 stages to finish and I got 2 consecutive bugs already
$10 per specialization too sigh
spec challenges aren't very difficult thankfully
Made my first 1 shot build today
most people get stuck on stripping balisik clean of armor but that's it
185 mil and still not at its max output
you have a build page for that?
nemesis
Lmao, no nemesis
damn
Stack headshot damage on a dps build
Glass cannon and vigilance, get stacks of busy little bee, switch to a oxi when you have full stacks, wait for your dodge city gunslinger holster to charge, pull your secondary back out, pause menu and change to the regulas, prock Achilles pulse, hit weak point
just beat keener and got my first shd level what should I do next im lost
bro they didnt even let the whole specialization quests be done after buying the specialization jesus christ. omg.
i'm hitting for 224,484,864
The busy bee stacking is kinda pointless tho, it's not that you can stack it easily when you actually run content
I beat keener and currently at shd level 2 should I up the global difficulty to hard?
why cant I damage people when Im on rogue?
is td2 better than td1
Depends on what you can handle. Try hard and bump it up if you feel it is easy. Keep in mind heroic control points are worth doing for blueprints
Could you clarify? You shoot and nothing happens? You're sure it isn't a decoy?
Depends on who you ask but generally yes. A lot more content and build crafting
maybe my rogue time was gone cus you have to keep on killing to keep the rogue state right?
Yes unless you are manhunt
Can anyone please tell me a few spots where named npcs spawn?π
Bounties
Do they drop cards?
Cards?
You mean tactical assesment ?
right in front of the white house behind the fountain
The Collectables (playing cards related to each named NPC)
Ahh they drop from open world npcs only
We have division 2 map site it has all the things you need
Cool. I'll check it out
This is exactly what I need. Lol
Thanks dude
Hey, the Apparel cache Keys in the season pass are for which clotes please ? π€
the ones in the regular apparel box (highlight the box and press G to see its contents)
Ah the normal one okay, I was hoping for the Nexus outfits π€£ Thanks to you
season pass owners do get an extra 4 free keys at the start of an apparel event, but those aren't listed on the rewards track
I see but it's a bit useless now that the event has passed but that's already it, on the other hand I imagine that we don't even win the keys for the Nexus event if we take the pass afterwards ?
when does the watch cap out for the boosts not including the components
or hp just the boosts
nexus has finished now, so yeah, I highly doubt you'd get usuable keys (the box isn't even available any more)
1000
999, after that it's just scavenging points and tiny (3hp) health boosts every level
As long as you're specced into the key ones it doesn't matter too much
yes that's what I thought, I came back 2 weeks late, shame on me lol.. Those outfits was pretty nice ^^ thanks again
They'll be back albeit at a heavily increased price compared to buying the keys when the event was active
with headshot i do 22.9m with crit headshot i do 23.8m why is crit dmg so low?
cuz its a headshot build
yes we can already buy them here, but even with the reduction it hurts π
theres probably hardly any chd on it
but it says the cirt dmg is 50% why does that translate to like small amount?
also chd and hsd are additive with each other so stacking both doesn't get you the return you might expect
50% isnt much
50% of 22m should be 11m
I assume it scales off the base damage
you dont need to crit with headshots. putting chc on instead of weapon handling is kinda not ideal
no but i was wondering why crit was so low
if most of that 22m is from headhunter, that flat damage boost doesn't benefit from crit or hsd either (only when stacking)
man dmg calcs are never simple
Especially not in div2
no its never as simple as you would expect
White death already does pretty good damage
sometimes i just dont hit enough it feels like
what i dont get is i can shoot the shield guys with determined but not masked mobs
You're applying damage directly to the target
Their shield is just cover
The helmets will mess up your chain tho
Hate hyenas
Any other gun afaik will be stopped dead by a helmet
im sure my tac 50 did it
Shockwave
whats shockwave?
It has like an area of effect shockwave on impact that does some damage iirc
no i mean in the cotext of the game is it a gun is it a talent or what
It's on the tac 50
Might've just been armour piercing or smth idk I never use spec weapons π
dont think i have ever seen it do dmg to nearby mobs tho
only if one is directly behind a target
Atp just have nemesis as a secondary incase you lose your stacks
It's easy enough to get your stack back. Be conscious of what you're shooting. Pick out the helmets and immediately know you're gonna need a follow up shot to finish them . They will be staggered for a second when the helmet breaks so this shouldnt be an issue tbh
just got gift blueprint
Give
Give me π π
no
π 
theres one with 5.9 chc in cd vendor
I don't have a pc π
oof
I need a sacrifice with repair skull and haste
whats the exotic drop chance in heroic countdown, im trying to farm out a st elmos
5-6% iirc
damn
Just run Challenging. Easier, faster and pretty much the same.
drop chance is weird with targeted loot involved
Also, more people run it, so faster matchmaking.
heroic is better imo
really? i never get exotics in countdown
ive had more exotics in open world than countdown
You may be targetting wrong loot
i havent lol
If you want to farm exotic as in exotic components in cd just select mmr TL
tbf i only usually farm gear sets from countdown
That is the reason you don't get exos farm mask chest ar etc
I just wish CD gave me the Ceska I want. I farmed all night and nothing barely decent.
can i get eb from countdown or is it only dz and raid
Dz raid and if you were 1 month early than maybe incursion
damn
yeah the drop chance is
get this
0.008%
without targeted loot
im already at my wits end after doing just two control points this is so god damn boring
oof
please tell me the end game rework is going to remove all this tedious grind for levelling up ur friccin iWatch
who knows lol
hope so what part of ubisoft thought this was fun
and balanced for newer players
dz is locked behind a boring ass tedious grind
is there an afk farm?
i mean if you want to play pvp then its unbalanced regardless of what your level is, people will always be running annoying stuff
but for pve its not bad at all, i've seen shd 100s do the incursion
yea but dude the fact some guy running the same build as me, or even worse than me, can kill me in half a mag where i cant kill them in a magdump despite firing first is the height of stupidity
if div 1 wasnt filled with hackers id play that tbf
are you sure its the exact same build? like same attributes and everything?
bc the shd watch just gives you, essentially, 10% crit, 20% crit damage,, a bit of hazpro, and a bit more armor/health
that isnt enough to make you go from 100% to 0 in half a mag while you cant kill them in about the same
i met a guy
shd watch level 700k
w 2.7m hp bc of it
now fair if hes a hacker but that wasnt my first thought, my first thought was that he was rewarded for not having a life
probably abused the leveling bugs from awhile back, and has just nolifed the game
at that point you arent contending even if you are lvl 1000
tbh i'd not even worry about PVP in this game, wait until Heartland or Div3 and get on the train when it starts
there are better, more balanced PVP games out there, this one isnt worth bashing your skull against
yeah but the division pvp is unbalanced and just not worth doing. The only ppl who actually do pvp are people who have been doing it since day1 and have massive SHD levels, which means you are gonna take 4+ mags to kill while they are gonna beam you in a mag
so ubi could just remove shd levels
i see where you are coming from, the game is unique but the train has left
yeah nah thats not gonna happen, not for awhile
the train did a sick ass backflip
off a cliff nose diving straight into the valley
im sry for the ranting it just painful cause i was so in love with division 1
the only way i can see the removal of SHD happening is if it was a PVP only thing, but then the pvp players will cause an uproar
only game to be as painful with poor direction after the fact is tarkov
and destiny 2
and cod
we get it, this game's PVE is great but the PVP is just.. yeah not worth any time
so painful
like actually soul crushing ngl
and im not even too fond of heartland either i think the map sucks
div2 pvp is just not worth the time. wait for div3 or get crushed in div2, i guess.
tbf tho if they bring new york to heartland ill be in love
hopes up for HL aspect?
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
idk man heartland is alr but they need to add way more to it
remember that the NDA is still in affect
yeah ik they will add more too
i just hope it has fun PVE
hunt showdown is a fun game but the PVP side of things gives me mixed feeling
fair
cant comment on what cant comment
but i can talk about the map and the characters cause those have been in the trailer already
What aspect is trying to say nicely is that if someone here breaks it, you'll not only be banned from here, but your uPlay account too.
Its really not pretty.
but anything revealed already is fair game right?
maybe in the broadest strokes
Even then i'd be careful.
idk imo the map in the trailer isnt what i would expect from a div game
and before anyone asks i'm not in any NDA since region was unavailable for testing to it's all third party old information i got
still dont play on stepping one anyone toes
will give the game a try when it's out
and those 5 ppl in the trailer seem like a lazy attempt of operators or smth
no custom characters im p sure
Discussing leaked information is a bannable offense on here all the same.
It's best to just not discuss it to be 100% honest.
thats why my last time is to give game a try and nothing else
im talking trailer
well people are fighting over the throne of being the extraction shooter
feels kinda weird when you hear about new games that look like something else and become one
There's a joke to be made there about Heartland and Winds of Winter and delays, but I didn't make it.
kinda bummed out to hear arc raiders and new marathon are extraction shooters
think they could have worked out better as other stuff
don't worry about Marathon, it's been heavily delayed with the Bungie troubles.
bets are right now that it's soft-cancelled.
well just from the trailer i didnt expect to see anything real for a couple of years
tbf if survival and div 1 dark zone are anything to go by division is perfect for extraction shooter
survival did hit a good sweat spot before others
RE:Arc Raiders- The initial trailer had me interested, but extraction shooter done badly is just not it. So i'm hoping its atleast serviceable.
I'll just admit it right now because I'm sure someone will find an old post or something.
but I could not stand Survival.
not my cup of tea but i did have fun with a couple of sessions
definetly more of an underground PVE kind of man
definetly sure PVP crowd will have more fun on that one than div2
game is too build centric to be balanced for PVP
too bad the reverse situation of a siege PVE game didnt work out good and rainbow six brand was overtaken by siege
idk i jus think that div is at its best in cities not rural its such a strange choice
just like far cry, if you go exotic all the time the exotic stops being interesting
like many people i do like snowy NYC over washington but i understand not being locked into one thing
different game different things
yea but they dont have to do nyc i just dunno why they opted for anytown usa
Hey Kettle, Local,Gogamer Seraphite, Aspect Rivens, Eevee
hey Saph
i finally got back the bloody knuckles i accidentally deconned
What's good Saph 
Hi saph
Dev Powes 
lol
There is no way to obtain the Power Bank Uniform now right?
is it just me or has anyone else been getting way more rogue agent encounters in missions?
seems to only happen in heroic tho
can i run specializations on story mode?
Not likely, no.
You really should be moving up in difficulty, not down.
atleast normal mode then for all? (and id like it on easy mode cus I still have alot of things to do in TD2. I was just trying to complete these specializations as completion. Not challenge. not mentioning the ridiculous bugs when doing these specializations!)
whats more worst? I bought the specialization not knowing it doesnt even complete the quests. which I just wasted my money in. tsk tsk. so bad.
Hi
Hey 
@tropic breach Being 100% honest here, if you have no interest in moving on above Story difficulty with div2, you should prepare yourself for a very short experience.
Above all else, this is a looter-shooter, the goal is to improve yourself over time.
yessir, have no prob moving up on difficulty. was only disappointed on bugs, and the outcome of buying 1 specialization that didnt complete the quests aswell after being bought.
about the bug, its when youve already gone far enough and it bugs. gate wont opening, tried dying still nothing. the amount of time was wasted. but yeah I appreciate the game thats why im playing it. just these bugs on PVE. and of course cheaters at DZ PVP. xD
the spec pack is kinda weird, you get direct access to the specialisations, and the quests get extra rewards added to them as a "hey if you do them you get more stuff" kinda thing
yo
Yo.
sup daddy
Dont call me that.
ah here we go
?
????
No one is mad, we good
daddy
yea i'm not mad, just confused now
daddy you need a tickle
I'm not engaging in this conversation any longer.
π
idk how you "buy one specialization". there is a year 1 pass that makes gunner/tech/firewall available immediately to start leveling without requiring the research... the research is optional at that point, but isnt going to auto complete any of the tasks.
what in fucks name did i just read
@timber hatch did you do a paradise lost speedrun?
I've done some, but not a ton
TOP 3 EXOTICS TO ADD INTO DIVISION 2 FROM DIVISION 1
#3: THE HOUSE
#2: SHOWSTOPPER
#1: JOE FERRO'S MASK
showstopper too out there tbh
i got a well rolled born great AR with the perfect stabilize talent. its pretty nice to use i can keep my fire on heads from far away. but i guess staedy handed is better since you get the free mag
If i'm trying to unlock tech specialization and need to get to WT5 how do I swap world tiers ?
I am finding this very confusing as a returning divison 1 player x)
did you finish Warlords of New York?
yep
yea then you physically dont have a world tier anymore, you went past it
just do what the tech spec quest says to do on the difficulty its telling you and it should work
So I did the zoo, but I didn't see the named mob, is that due to the invasion ?
yes
if you've already cleared it once it should swap to the normal version
glad to help
thank you friend o7
o7 commander
do all control points give the same amount of loot bar the dedicated loot or?
as some are most likely easyer than others
wdym
so the only difficulty i can select while the invasion is happening is story
How long do invasions last?
wait what level are you
40 shd28
:x
i think i had to complete manning once on story before it unlocked the higher difficulty
yeah
probably it, but i thought they finished it before
i finished the invasion on challenged
so ur saying i need to finish the regular on story first?
thats weird
oh have you not done the regular yet
that might be it
thats so incredibly tilting i just quit that mission when i did the thing and i didnt get credit
le sigh thanks we go again
good luck brethren
if you completed the mission on invaded you swap the versions on the menu
can now confirm have to do story first to unlock other difficulties
you can maybe buy it with textiles
no
seasonal reward track or something then?
idk i cant find it anywhere
i have it. dont know how though
i dunno but it musta been auto yoinked cuz i didnt see anything
it wasnt it was manual
oh
bc its not bullying
thats the joke π
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
i said "this is bullying" and aspect deleted it
Can't delete it now 
cant believe i'm ox-ly
I want to find bull
Β―_(γ)_/Β―
Nope don't have bull emoji
stop
i just read sometimes emotes and dyes and stuff comee as rewards for weekly projects
i never noticed that before tho
Which one
yawn
aspect thanks for not leaving chat
I have work to do. I'm not watching chat at all times.
Man, the in game clan search needs a "last active" marker of some sort.
Should make my own clan. Just me and my three imaginary friends. Call it HΓΟ
And there will be cookies and sing alongs and lots and lots of ammo.
Anyway, time to get back to my all grenade build.
I did that in Warframe, solo clan, i actually 100% it by myself tho, so my solo clan is probably more complete than bigger clans
Sadly you have ot have 4 members here before it lets you do much of anything.
Guys I finished warlords story but since itβs a first time experience Iβm overloaded with info and way behind in proficiency/expertise/ and shade level, with that in mind what would be a nice level to set the word map (hard,challenging,heroic) and what modes to do to farm gear
bro position in queue omg
You can readily farm for builds and proficiencies in countdown. Get yourself a build that you like using and then enjoy whatever parts of the game seem fun.
Countdown is great for loot/proficiency. You can farm challenge or heroic control points for blueprints. You can farm challenge or heroic world events (public execution in particular) for big experience especially if you have directives on
Hello fellow Agents, I need your help. I'm playing the New York story right now, after I finished one mission I needed to travel to Haven and speak with Alani Kelso, but I dont see her, shes invisible and I cant talk to her and continue the main story
I continued without talking to her when I did my second run
but maybe reset the game if you need the lore
I think you can procrastinate on her until the final mission
How can I reset the game? do I need to start over from level 30?
No
not that kind of reset
cause I dont know how to reset, its not showing anything on the map
https://i.imgur.com/NGpKxBP.jpeg
there's no yellow mission icons for dragov?
Thr side mission on the left
so when I continue, I can just ignore kelso?
that might be linked
that's what I did when I played new york the second time
yes thank you, I will try. I just hope it doesnt destroy the progression
I try to report a bug
Is my match making broken or there is no one playing?
I have been matchmaking for hours but nothing
"call for backup" usually works a lot faster.
just make sure you re-call after each person joins, and make sure your group is open via the "Social" menu.
Thx also are legendary missions the same as d1 where enemy instant knock u one hit melee and shreds ur health/armor
Or much easier
Matchmaking dependent on difficulty on missions and global event active or not in openworld/missions. Most will be running the event currently.
agents is the st elmo's engine still obtainable?
Still tough
What event?
Shd exposed
Hiu guys i just finish the stovepipe manhunt but i did not receive my chestpiece appearance mod after restarting, how do i fix this?
Shd exposed as Kettle mentioned. You can turn it on by accessing main menu > seasons > shd exposed > button listed on bottom to activate
It's still got another week , and you gain stars by leveling shd and completing listed challenges (in same menu area).
You can use these stars at the season vendor for a variety of caches including exotic/named/legacy.
There is also a reward track associated also with a variety of caches to claim after you gained enough stars. ( in same menu)
Ok thanks for the guide
Turn it on and matchmaking will most likely be as you remembered since most will have the event on
gun go brrrrr
what should i not do in incursion other than hackable gadgets or is that decent?
countdown is the main place not to bring hackable skills
for incursion you just want a full-red striker DPS build, reviver & decoy/emp sticky
ah ok what mode is for ouroboros? i keep forgetting
incursion
i do have a red striker build but i neeed a better gun
out of the crafted guns i have used the police m4 felt better than a famas
Both are good on a Striker build for the DPS part, can also use a carbine-7, Elmo, etc.
just don't forget to bring a secondary gun to stack up Striker with, acs-12 is the best choice overall.
dont have one of those guns or elmo
run countdown a few times with AR targeted, you'll get them (or just use police m4, it's one of the best options)
acs-12 is a shotgun and very worth getting if you want to use the striker chest though (useful for 3rd and 4th encounters in the incursion)
the choice non elmo ar is usually just personal preference
Well, Elmo is not the best choice either, so it's actually more of a case of "they're all in the top 4, pick one".
Oreo is the only exception being a direct winner above the rest, but its range is rather short. (15m at max)
as long as your AR is pretty good, has dtooc as the 3rd attribute, and has a decent Talent (Strained/Fast Hands being the most common), you'll do fine.
does the acs need a certain setup?
dtooc on 3rd, that's what matters most.
Oreo wins at 25m too compared to ars
dtooc?
damage to target out of cover.
Dmg to Target out of cover
Oreo's max optimal range is 15 meters, outside of that and you do reduced damage.
It is the best attribute as 3rd slot
Yeah but even with reduction it does bonkers DMG
more than ar
anything i should know about countdown?
Play challenging mindful of targeted loot don't use skill builds like drone turrets and don't do vip follow the team
vip? and is the drone that shows targets?
Hunters are able to "hack" (read: control) most deployable skills, so you do not want to use those in Countdown around Hunters.
VIP (very important person) is an objective where you have to go protect someone. The objective will have the word "VIP" in the name.
there are ways around it with lines of sight and such, but don't bother.
shields are fine.
You can use eclipse build though I. Heroic if you want to get carried
i should have enough info to get started
thanks will be giving it a go
thanks for the help
As an added bonus, between every 2 or so Countdown matches, there's a laptop vendor at the Base where you can buy caches. Exotics are well worth it.
is div3 going be out in 2024?
Lol no.
It's going to be at least another 3+ years, I'd bet my Stash on it.
i never played div1 and played 2 maybe before warlords not sure i dont remember but this time i plan to play the next game on release
oh that sucks
div3 was pretty much just "announced to starting to be worked on"
don't forget that MSV (the devs for div1 and 2) have to release the new Avatar game and a Star Wars one called "Outlaws" first.
the last 4 years felt longer than my whole life
that's cuz covid happened
Well div2 is 6 years old as of March next year, so I'm sure you'll be fine.
was warlord year 2?
div2 was 2019, wony was 2020.
4 years later is 2024.
for some reason i remember year 2 im sure
or might be mixing ut up with a different game
I still have the physical case around here somewhere. 6 discs to install.
is their a slash command for time toon created?
i only have about 17 days tops play time
about 16 on one toon the rest on the others
Probably could look at your purchase date if you wanna know.
i dont remember if i paid for it then got the pass or got the pass then later paid for it
There's no specific way to find out when an Agent was made, but screenshots might help if you are in the habit of taking those.
nope
You can check your order history
All the stores have date that you made the purchase on
You are a day1 player though 
yeah i took a good 2 year break maybe more]
π
crazy to think about
Well the good thing is that all of that doesn't really mean anything now, since you can farm out from a fresh account to where you are now in a month, maybe less with Countdown.
I'd give a fair bit for Targeted Loot to have been in the game a few years earlier. Oof.
Before CD it was such a pita
uPlay > account name > my orders, for anyone else who wants to know.
oh wait i think thats when that came out not when i got it
says 25/09/20 but im fairly sure i paid for the pass before then to not play that game but i gave it a go due to it on the pass otherwise i would never have given it a try
@hybrid ore my first descent i went in i just deathed. what do i pick? is there a certain level i should be?
i'm sorry i'm only asking you cause you seem to be responding the most haha
It is a Ubisoft chatbot designed for this stuff ask as many questions as you want
level is irrelevant in descent, you always start from scratch
just experiment with different talents/weapons/skills and learn what works for you
firestarter chem is a good early choice for door camping in early loops though
I'm sorry the server is down, please try again later.
Hunters hacked rivens 
even AIs need maintenance
whats this icon where its like 2 half arrows pointing in opisite directions?
you mean composure?
i dont know what it is its on some of my gear
Shareable maybe
yeah thats it
Means you collected it in a group, so you can share it with the others who were there at the time
got a perfet glory daze
That things funny but the effective range dies
The range isn't as much of an issue as it seems like it would be. I just revisited that gun to check that out. Unless you're at like 25+m it's fine
what is the dmg dropoff on it it only has a bit before dropping
im using it on striker with coyote mask
If you take a grenade out it'll show you the distance you are gonna throw it, this allows you to kinda gauge distance whenever you feel. 15m isn't as bad as most think it is.
The main issue here is that with the Coyotes Mask buff distance is fairly important.
e.g. if you're using Oreo, you are within the first tier, AR's go to the 2nd as they need that CHC.
I mean if you are using coyotes you just set up the CHC to match your playstyle. It depends on the person imo and to really find out you'd either pay attention to the buff or review gameplay if you wanna min max on that.
Oh you can also do the SMG and AR and set up the CHC to be good for both.
I hate coyotes for this reason cause of this unreliablity
Tip for anyone else who kinda finds the Range hard to use properly, you can actually practice a bit in real gameplay by using Hunters Fury for a while.
the distance for the debuff is 15m.
Hf is fine though cause you are always up close the problem is generally strikers and ar
Yeah I'm suggesting that people can use it to practice getting the distance right during firefights, getting it to muscle memory.
In open world coyote goes haywire tbh
π
Yeah learning the different icons for close-mid-long buff helps too.
I personally find 59 for smg and 38 for ar pretty good for coyote's if smg is your main
I just think lots of people forget that some thing are best for certain play styles and others aren't. It just depends on how you play.
Unfortunate thing about coyote's is that it takes like a second? To change the buff so high burst weapons like ouro or famas might get hurt when switching range buffs
"hurt"
Talking in terms of dps
its 5-10% dmg diff
I mainly play pvp so every percent counts for me
Doesn't everyone in PvP run blues
Coyote's is just 1 red tho
That is why dmg matters
but coyote doesnt have blue core
He said it's one red core?
Also people tend to run 4-6 blue cores. It depends on the build and playstyle.
Yeah you're not sacrificing that much to gain an actually good talent
Can push the crit damage for some builds past 200%
Also it's not like not having a blue in your build is a complete waste. You still get an extra 15% weapon damage
where do i start countdown i dont see it on the map or from the helipad
Complete the dz recon missions and it should appear on the map
coyote prob makes most sense with oreo + ar i guess?
so the midrange buff makes up for ar having less chc
the question is how valuable is catharsis in pvp
Very. Especially in 6 blue builds
But in group coyote's is more favourable. 2 at least
Is the Nemesis exotic still a month long grind? Or can i replay the invade strongholds anytime to get the components?
It is. Unless you have someone who has it and is willing to farm it for you
It's down to whether gwh is invaded or not
So i do have to wait for them to cycle... darn... but thankz
People can share it to you if you'd go that route too.
i know it was only on challenging but i was expecting countdown to be much harder maybe i was lucky with a team who knew what to do
Has anyone found a fix for Cindy in the manhunt?
I am stuck on 45% as I have to meet her, but I already did.
my ig
Just keep running it and hopefully it's always that smooth. Other times you'll feel like no one is shooting anything or completing the objectives.
The worst is when you get to extract and someone runs in and immediately pops a flare
"rogue stinger hive detected"
I'd put T6 hackable skills at the top tho.
thankfully most of the time the people who do that are running terrible builds with weak hives
Missing out on heli farm isn't too bad but getting smeared by a team mates hacked skill is something else.
it's kinda the game's fault for not communicating it tho
"rogue striker drone detected"
like unless you google it or look for a guide you'd never know until it's a problem. and even then unless someone complains at you in chat you'd still probably not know lol
lol tons of the game just isn't explained.
in social menu
could not access it when i was dead i guess
While dead it should be D for social menu. Click their name and mute player on the right side.
odd will try next time
the second time i did countdown 1 died 2 dc on 1 team then i died on the team i was on
Hey Rivens, Kettle, Gogamer, Souless
can somebody explain what is the problem with my crit chance? its 54%, regular spotter build (closer). sometimes its work fine but i see many times couple oranges and 10 red/white. i watched stream of my friend and he's critting more often even with less chc.
chance
You might need to look at the stats page closer. Are you holding the same weapon as shown at the bottom?
yes. its in 1st slot.
Well it is just a chance. You'd have to look at larger sample sizes. 10 non crits in a row isn't crazy.
But 10 crits in a row isn't crazy either.
sure. but many times full mag with 1-10 crits is wierd, isnt it?
All you can really do is sanity check your build to make sure mods or other things didn't get messed up on a loadout save or something. Stats page is reliable tho.
I guess Crit RNG said "No" to you in particular
on high RPM is whatever but on rifle builds when you dont crit it hurts xD
Only thing i notice is that when you're burned you deal no crits?
I noticed it on many occasions when burned by players via sticky or chem or iron lung
I dont think being on status effects can effect your crit
Never heard of it so far
It happens way too often though
If i can get a couple clips where that happens I'll be sure to post them
I think that has something to do with hip firing. You can't ADS when when burning, and in division 1 there's a huge crit penalty for hip firing but im not sure if thats also the case in d2
I thought of that too but when i blindfire while not burning i can still crit
anyway. there is something wrong. i dont feel that im critting at least 50%. feels like much less.
if your chc says 50 then its just rng after that
Can someone help me get chameleon lol ?
Hi saph
Might wanna use an LFG channel for that
go to the lfg not here
Thank you
im seeing how well i like bloody knuckles on my striker
Good for solo or in countdown/incursion?
Just keep smacking people and you'll do fine.
twack twack twack
i have no reason to run striker outside countdown/incursion/raid
tru dat regulus is the true king of div 2 content
hella debatable
π―
id only say theres a "king of content" if it can do all content without any issues
which regulus struggles to do in quite a bit
skill issue 
try using it to take out an aerial recon
i oneshot those since i know the secret weakspot headshot hitbox on it π«£
and the ones on roosevelt you oneshot?
i presume you also oneshot every other enemy in the game
It's not good cause of what? 1% of content?
Got another Chamelon from a Black Tusk normie
cant call it a king if its not a jack of all trades π€·ββοΈ
How many of these rifles did they boost from the Pentagon?
devs troll us with increased drop rate for that shit, funny thing is fully stacked it craps on 99% of weapons in game.
- it cant chain kills on robots so if you have any room with two warhounds then youre just screwed
Still my main on System Corruption for that reason
So doesn't that make nothing in the game king?
which does exist more than once i can name three instances off the top of my head of rooms with just dogs and pretty much nothing else
yes
wdym
best mmr for hotshot
that outcast bt invaded mission has room with nothing but mutiple dogs and 2 tanks
π€
i was thinking darpa/dua leg/coney manhunt but that too lol
Best MMR is a mix bag. Are you determined spamming?
does no one play summit anymore? i have been on calling for backup more then 15 minutes no joins XD?
yeah
man challenging countdown loot sucks
the closest thing we have to a king is elmo but even then it has some drawback; theres no specific instance designed yet that shines this drawback, but it certainly does exist in very niche scenarios
did 3 roudns and got 1 chest and it droped a exotic i have had 4 of
"why is my game lagging"
BG3 downloading in the background
"oh"
Yeah then use a WD. The sniper builds can vary a ton and do the same exact job too.
i got aces and its pretty wack ngl
You can run 2-3 pcs hots and a bunch of the HSD/MMR damage brands or the contractors/foxes or even DCH in with it.
I'm waiting for another red core exotic so I can use with Hotshot.
You can also go weapon handling and have super fast swaps/reload/and no weapon sway.
got it, thank u
is it worth doing countdown on heroic?
Can you re-roll attributes on gear or have to farm until you get the one you want?
5 hours downtime jeezus thats alot
I always do countdown on heroic
Wdym
Ah
could be a 6 hour downtime tbh thts crazy
Could be a full day. Who know's what could happen.
prob nerfing oro as im trying to get it as that always happens with me
nahh i dont think so
thats not what an infrastructure update is mate
You can re calibrate one attribute that's stored in your recal library on most items, named items special stat/talent can't and exotics can't.
yeah no dev has never snuck in a nerf in a update before
never said tht but theres alot mrore to nerf the oro tbh
n tbh oro isnt even tht Op like st elmos is '
not in an infrastructure update
theres two things wrong with this statement
n st elmos and shock n etcx are supposed to be getting fixes ion pvpv
- elmo isnt even the best AR
- ouro literally has 60% more dps than it
pvp wise oro rules pve wise oro is okay but st elmos slaps in both
it has the highest usage tho in the game
period
high usage doesnt mean good .-.
The only think I like about St. Elmo's is that fact that is pretty much a laser beam even at great distances.
thts wht devs do they see soemthing popular n nerf it but i dont think oro is getting nerf this early
the handling is good but its not best damage
And I think that should be nerfed.
its not getting an early nerf but its most likely getting one
-_- so the scorpio, st elmos,oro arent good guns?
Tons of uniformed people use the Elmo because of it's weapon handling, it feels good cause most have poor aim.
same reason people use determined on snipers
I feel attacked.
like i said best is opinon because the famas is the best but the shock is wht puts elmos over the top especailly wiht 70 rounds
and when i mean famas is the best i mean for dps burst dmg
i ran a leg tidal basin with some other people on this server and got more kills than all of them combined, while on 140ms ping, without determined
does exotics drop in heroic in mid mission of count down or just from the points you spend to buy them?
they can drop mid mission
the fact of the matter is scoirpio and st elmos carry people through aklot of stuff n they are used liek wild fire nothing wrong with it but i dont expect a huge update but if its 6 hours something is gonna change
I hate the shock ammo, I use the elmo for 1 thing in this game and that's because of it's total mag damage. Breaking the incursion barrels.
considering the incursion update took 4 hours when it dropped to update
do i need to do something to get staint elmo in the loot pool or something?
its an infrastructure change lmao
you need to purchase the dlc
what dlc?
warlords of new york
WONY
You can get elmo at lvl 30.
oh ok few
...with the dlc
Just run Countdown on Challenging or Heroic with Assault Rifle targeted loot.
And keep farming.
Oh you might be right on that but idk anyone who could even test that.
the only way people have gotten lvl 30 elmos to my knowledge is by downgrading via a glitch
still a 6 hour update is still along time
has to be something more then just infastructure prob gearing up for holiday events and etc
so youre saying theyre lying or
i mean this is the same dev team tht said they fixed the incursion chest 3 times n each time it broke it or bosses
so tbh idrk nor do i care atp
thats called "it didnt work"
You can buy exo caches and get it in them.
not "we lied sorry we didnt even try"
at lvl 30 i dont think so
u can say about alot
I have friends buying exo caches at lvl 30 who have gotten them. lvl 30 DZ caches are cheaper.
but my point is just because the patch notes say one thing doesnt always mean its tht way
its complete speculation unless youre on the dev team and can prove otherwise
but there arent patch notes?
Thanks
so ur arguing about dev patches verse actual player tests -_- smh
because there is literally no patch lmao?
im sorry if i applied your logic the incursionchest would have been fixed along timeago
Incursion chest isn't fixed?
im saying you can try to do something and said thing has a possibility of not working
but if you dont do anything at all there isnt a chance of something happening
not really it doesnt reset every monday like the devs said it would
two updates ago it wouldnt even drop keys or npc would regen health after killed etc
^
Sounds like a problem π€
I've gotten my keys no problem, as well as everyone I've run with.
doesn't it reset on tuesday just like most other resets
n last n update u couldnt use the scorpio or even st elmos on wright( not sure about elmos but i have heard) otherwise he would become immune
afaik it resets 7pm EST monday
Naw it's Monday night like a derp.
that was just a side effect
ive heard from multiple e players it doesnt rest on mondays it resets 7 days after they complete it
bugs happen, fixes dont work but that doesn't make the devs liars if that were the case every single dev in the world would instantly become a liar and thats just not true
how long ago did you hear this
including people who speedrun it n have over 500 clears atp so i mean i trust them over patch notes tht break it from week to week
exactly; you cant anticipate a nerf in an infrastructure upgrade lol
Bro you don't know any speed runners with over 500 clears.
u right but i do know 4 of the top 10 ranked in clears
Its hearsay if it's not in patchnotes , right
only 2 people have over 500 clears
n one of them is DING xD
Once you extract an attribute, is it unlocked to use multiple times, or need to find more items for each extraction that I want to use in the future?
once its extracted its there for good
unlocked to use multiple times
Name them and tell me their current time. I already know the approx clears and I know their time.
who the hell is ding
most clears or best times ?
Best time.
im looking at the lb right now theres nobody named DING on the top 12
He is just a guy who runs the incursion a ton.
doesnt have over 500 clears
best times? hmm when i checked he was
i rmemeber because kamikaze vion doom was there xD
still not
aswell xD made a video about it but i digress idk about the leader board becasue doesnt it still gltich with descent?
i thought they rest the leaderbaord
no im talking about times and clears
This is A LOT of smoke.
well whoever youre talking about aint top 12 on either
fusck kong and alex pan are the ones ive seen theres a few more i cant rmember but ye
dings a solid player
neither of them are on it either
Idk man I'm top 20 for clears. I also have a very good incursion time and know a ton of these speed runners.
oh you are lol
Yeah it's in the patch notes.
but idk if ti actually fixed it
I lost like 80 some clears.
ricardo i dont think anyone did 500 loops on descent
not tht im talking about times atp
because clears were reset
times were never correlated to descent from what i know
times i dotn really care for anymore if the leaderbaord was reset xD
the number of incursion clears were your incursion clears + the highest descent floor you reached
times had no relation to the reset
but liek i said did it really reset n work or was it a ptach and then went back to being broeken
times were never broken
like theres no way to to tell long term tbh
the times were also reset because they attempted to remove 1-shots of bosses
OHHH gotcha
Yeah but times are also fast af now anyway.
so tht makes sense since i ahvent seen the leaderbaord sicne the update
Yeah my clears were wipped
the leaderboards all hackers anyways as always
Raucey here has a 7:38 time.
only because I was carried by you
Naw dude you lift me up.
I mean the leaderboard top is always who finds the best clitches to use π€£
Glitchless speed runs are super popular right now.
word?
tht makes more sense why iwas confused on the people on it at one point
because i rmemeber seeing it before n it was so skewed
Is there a glitch being used besides the wall thing at phase 1 of incursion?
Yeah
yeah its called flying through the walls
Even then, I've seen nuunu clear phase 1 just as fast with oxidizer
Oh dang ok
@timber hatch thanks for backing me up n letting me know times are legit now atleast although idk if its tracking as it should now but i appreiciate it
To be fair I don't know what's the time difference with those 2
I mean, the PC leaderboards are pretty fucked for all the top times atm. Theres cheaters who are carrying people through at impossible times. Not everyone with sub-6 minute times are cheating, but they all got those times by having at least 1 person in their group who was cheating
and theres 2 very clear cheaters in the top 22 for clears
