[feral pagoda]

Nope.

[dense saffron]

Mines weapon damage for core attribute and CHC and Haz Pro for attributes and I added a headshot damage for the mod

[elfin hazel]

wait a sec

can we even get another one I gotta check

[lone valve]

It'll drop from the loot goblin now iirc

[frozen meadow]

do you have proof of it

[thorn cape]

Anyone else not able to recalibrate it it's not showing I can 🤔

[pliant sentinel]

its ok, i'll clear it in my world

got a godrolled fenris bag

[dense saffron]

I got a 2nd one from the goblin

[frozen meadow]

doesnt look like you can recal it

[pliant sentinel]

thanks again tho

BRO

MY FESTIVE DELIVERY IS FULL RED MAXED

[green charm]

i think need remove the shd in conflict but add a more large area for the land for more players like the division 1 dlc with capture point pvp

[thorn cape]

Congrats gotta grind for a good one now 😭

[green charm]

but for the new treasure ? 🙂

[kind veldt]

does the talent actually hits every enemy in 20m radius?

[pliant sentinel]

i'll farm it from the goblin later

[kind veldt]

cause that is big for collector also

[lone valve]

The post they had about said that it'd drop from the loot goblin

[thorn cape]

It does

[wise basalt]

so just got the festival bag, does that mean i can farm the loot goblin to try to get one w/ better rolls

[kind veldt]

oh boy

[thorn cape]

But the roles can be bad 🥲

[kind veldt]

actually potentially fun builds

[lone valve]

Guess it'll be time to make some new builds tmrw

[thorn cape]

This is gonna take long 😭

[green charm]

only on heroic have the goblin?

[pliant sentinel]

how does the goblin spawn again

[thorn cape]

Do the one near the dz South it's been lucky so far

[pliant sentinel]

doesnt it have to be night time

[wise basalt]

enemies never stand around long enough for grenades to go off, gotta pair it with madbomber talent

[frozen meadow]

honestly kinda mid talent

[pliant sentinel]

we only in it for the appearance mod

[lone valve]

It was never gonna be anything omg it's so good
It's just a fun holiday item

[frozen meadow]

idk how you can use it tho

[lone valve]

Pair with collector idk?

[frozen meadow]

grenades take significantly long to go off

[lone valve]

The only remotely interesting grenade builds I've seen recently have been with collector so idk

[thorn cape]

If u don't want to use collector could try it with perfect mad bomber?

[wise basalt]

now i get to fullfil my dreams of becoming the loot goblin wearing this ridiculous bkpk

[frozen meadow]

but they use cluster not concussion

wait a fucking minute

this would be pure chaos if i put it on my pvp mortar build 💀

nvm

[pliant sentinel]

how do i cook this grenade

lemme cook bruh

[frozen meadow]

you hold the button down that you use to throw the grenade

[pliant sentinel]

primal ape brain activated, bright colours happy

[frozen meadow]

i wish it worked on more than concussion

[pliant sentinel]

imma sledgehammer lovebirds

[frozen meadow]

you can do that without the backpack lol

but if youre running an inc can i join

[pliant sentinel]

wheres the fun if theres no fireworks

[pliant sentinel]

my group is still asleep

[frozen meadow]

oof

[safe jungle]

whitch control points is for winter project today

[frozen meadow]

worlds end

yeah im not able to get off more than 2.2m damage with mad bomber

[pliant sentinel]

still need to flawless incursion

[frozen meadow]

oof

[kind veldt]

#ask-td2-community message

just quick random test, it's not bad

[safe jungle]

i did the world end so were the strect stash at

[kind veldt]

inside the supply room

[wise basalt]

proficiency for this festival bkpk seems to be bugged. just donate one and instead of half a lvl like all named, its only showing 220/88000

[frozen meadow]

lol

[safe jungle]

got it thanks

[barren kettle]

Which control point is the stash at?

[safe jungle]

world end

[barren kettle]

What if u already have it as a taken over point?

[safe jungle]

then i dont know then

[barren kettle]

Nvm mind I found i5

Basically walk to the desk if u have it taken over in the stash room and interact and u will get it

[bitter wraith]

Is a 1% expertise gear armor increase 1% of a single core (170k) or 1% of my armour without expertise with the current gear I am using?

[frozen meadow]

1% of the base armour

so neither

[safe jungle]

waht are festive greade

[frozen meadow]

1% on a chest piece for instance is 1,580

[frozen meadow]

they just made a grenade festive thats it

[kind veldt]

concussion granades that explode into fireworks

[frozen meadow]

im bored now

[quasi verge]

light your shoes on fire.

[frozen meadow]

no

[quasi verge]

Well, if you won't be helped...

So, is that the end of the Holiday stuff? Aside from famring loot goblin?

[green charm]

after finish the project can farm it on goblin?

[tired granite]

tried finding the ugly sweater guy wasnt able to find him at different occasions in the same location according to the net. Any idea why it aint showing up despite surroundings clear from activities and such.

i wish i could do the other winter projects and come back to this ugly sweater but Ubisoft just says "f u" you got to follow the order

[frozen meadow]

it needs to be at night

[tired granite]

yeah i know, went after 22:30 onwards many times already and the fker wont spawn

[halcyon radish]

10 festival backpack, not single one with skill damage

[hollow aurora]

Good evening, do you know what checkpoints need to be carried out for today's winter project?

[tired granite]

ran like an idiot many hours still cant find the ugly sweater fker

wish i can spawn camp the guy but the game needs to load him

[halcyon radish]

the 11st got it LOL

[tired granite]

ah so its 2100 according to youtube comments

if only i dont have to keep pressing esc to see the time

[halcyon radish]

IDK it's bug or feature, festival backpack cannot recalibrate

[fluid meadow]

Wait for it to get fixed when project resolve drops

[mint ember]

anyone know which control point for the winter project?

[elfin hazel]

worlds end next to campus

[mint ember]

tyty

[azure lintel]

Wait....shit

[junior sorrel]

love will ferrel

[blissful hill]

For the UGLY SWEATER, wait at the White House till 9pm & then fast travel to the closest point. You cannot be in the area at all.

[fiery cloud]

I just went to the safe waited till 845 then ran down to the ark over to the loud speaker thru the gate and killed guy with Santa hat

[pure saffron]

least it can be Optimized for now.

[unreal geode]

Not convoy, a yellow guy hold the red supply, you need to hunt him start fm 9:00 pm at specific time and location, the 1st guy near navy plaza, Pennsylvania road, pls scan while u arrive. 2nd guy at 8:00 pm, walk fm viewpoint museum, arrive at 9:00 , he should standing on the container at that site. This event will end up 1/09/24, Good luck and finish it, last event is today .

[fiery cloud]

If your doing jacket goto jtc safehouse run along the route get rid of the 1 enemy area so the loud speaker shows up at which point wait till 900 head to the loud speaker and he'll be on the right. NOTE: do not engage loud speaker until the santa hat guy shows

[nimble mauve]

hey hey all

[hybrid ore]

hey Agent

[pliant sentinel]

does goblin still spawn at jtc

[midnight edge]

Is anyone willing to teach me things in the game? I am T5 and completed all my missions. I have no clue what to do in the game from this point.

[frozen meadow]

Yes

[pliant sentinel]

👍👍👍

[granite zephyr]

Completed district union legendary at lvl 120 feels good

[coral ocean]

Auggg!! I must have tried to rescue Cindy McAllister literally at least 50 times and still can't do it. Have reasonably strong build, St. E, White Death, Hunters Fury, Perfectly Unbreakable. But I can't get it done. Not to mention there is no checkpoints in the mission which makes it frustrating as hell. GD A&S Museum, what a colossal waste of time. Sorry. Don't mind me, just venting.

[neon wyvern]

give this guy a dps build

[tawny fable]

hehe st elmo go brrr

[pliant sentinel]

st elmo and cup noodles

[modest anchor]

[ancient birch]

is there another winter project tmr? im still missing the santa scarfg

[hybrid ore]

There's no santa scarf unless it's been added recently(ish), it's actually a santa beard for your neck, so a "neck beard", but without the cheetoz.

[stable fox]

Perfectly kinetic momentum 🫨

[granite zephyr]

Guys

Did 3 legendary missions all first time

Completed fast

Bighorn on roosevelt

Pog or unpog

[sterile ferry]

pog for fast, unpog for bighorn

[granite zephyr]

Finished Capitol in 20 minutes

Or 30 idk

[neon wyvern]

Atleast you don't have to worry about bighorn

[granite zephyr]

What's wrong with bighorn?

[neon wyvern]

mid ar

it has no crit mods

but it only drops on legendary

[granite zephyr]

Alr

[copper shoal]

Nice. it is fun to play with.

[mint wolf]

Hey when is the last Target coming out ?? Tomorrow or next week ?

[halcyon radish]

next week

[median wind]

floor 91 on Summit woo lol

dude wtf i had 3 bosses at the same time lol

[cyan narwhal]

first time on summit?

[median wind]

yuh

[wanton carbon]

I've had it drop in the DZ

[vapid rover]

So you can’t donate the festive delivery bp for proficiency?

[inner harness]

Just donate reliever comps / protective fabric

[tender wave]

Yeah it's bugged apparently

[granite zephyr]

Is it just me or using pulse when the rogue is not expecting you a noob move

Like why pulse me when I don't know who is around ,and get me alerted

[silent nymph]

well i managed to set up a build for the new back pack along with the collector togheter and now im gonna throw nade's like hot potato

[granite zephyr]

When everyone failed to fight the solo manhunt cus they fight him face to face

But I just ambush them and win
Big brain

[silent nymph]

well if we fight the recruiter then i guess why not ambush him at camp white oak

[granite zephyr]

They weren't expecting to get shock trapped and double tapped on the head with a cuelebre

Ngl that shotgun is fun to use

[silent nymph]

not to mention getting flash banged and foamed too

[granite zephyr]

Fast reload. High damage, running with closer and pulse laser, obliterates

[granite zephyr]

I only had a cluster grenade lol

[silent nymph]

it compete's with scorpion as most fun shotty

[granite zephyr]

Used wrong build

[silent nymph]

make's sense

[granite zephyr]

But came back with tactician

Or technician

[granite zephyr]

Scorpion is like the handicap tool for rogue hunting

Real dudes use the sawed off shotgun

Gamble if 2 shots kill or you humiliate yourself and get killed

[silent nymph]

foam+scorpion is basically a "im not gonna sugarcoat it"

[inner harness]

Scorpio is a weapon that gets less useful the better/more experienced you are

[granite zephyr]

Ngl I once ran full heal build, future initiative in DZ with a team

The rogue were confused why the tank was getting healed in 2-3 charges

But they forgot I headshot them with the designated hitter

[inner harness]

Did you run with empath or fi chest

[granite zephyr]

Who needs a scope on a sniper, I need a red dot

[granite zephyr]

FI chest, btsu gloves

And that talent with the badger I forgor

[inner harness]

Safeguard

[granite zephyr]

The perfect one, enemy hit gets damaged more

[inner harness]

Hmm

Uh the setup

[granite zephyr]

Yup

[inner harness]

Oh*

[granite zephyr]

Buff medic

[inner harness]

So you ran a raid healer build in the dz

[granite zephyr]

Ye

[inner harness]

I'd recommend running empath instead since it's more damage and more consistent

[granite zephyr]

Noted

Though ngl ,swap speed on sawed off is funny

Discombobulate the rogue, he can't move, he is stunned, whip out the joke of a shotgun in split second

Blow his brains out

[inner harness]

I've never ran a sawed off lmao

Doesn't have much use in raids especially

[granite zephyr]

Elmo shock + sawed off

Funny

[inner harness]

Elmo won't rly work next ssn

[granite zephyr]

Dang

Well, got to abuse it while it still works

[inner harness]

It takes 2 hits to shock

Has only 35 rounds of shock

It's weaker shock

[granite zephyr]

Bruh

[inner harness]

People build resistance as you proc it

[granite zephyr]

At this point imma run the annoying build

[inner harness]

And if you get gealed at all +50% hazpro

Healed*

[granite zephyr]

Scorpio EP with shock trap and emp

[inner harness]

Just reinforcer chem yourself and your immune to status

Ot have a healer

[granite zephyr]

The mind of a player is more complex

They think 100
But forget the small points

Like one didn't expect me to cluster bomb him after foaming him

Man the new chest piece is fun

[inner harness]

Well you won't be able to foam them now lmao

[granite zephyr]

Run China light and more Explosive damage

[inner harness]

If they get healed

[granite zephyr]

This is just unfun of ubisoft

[inner harness]

Reminds me of arty builds lmao

[granite zephyr]

Just like how they are nerfing grenades in rb6

[mental condor]

#ask-td2-community I have a problem and I'm looking for someone who can help.

[inner harness]

Wassup @mental condor

[mental condor]

chill mate wsup 2

Bout to give the players some warhammer deathkorp experience

RUSH THE ENEMIES, BUT
Keep on shelling

[inner harness]

Wish I got that referance

[thorny talon]

🤓☝️

[inner harness]

I only have 1.5k hrs on div 2 this year out of my 4.55k total I need to get more next season

[granite zephyr]

Bump it up to 3k

[inner harness]

Ikr

I only got like 60 days ingame on div 2 this yr

Scrub numbers

[thorny talon]

"I love patrolling unlawful streets of post pandemic virtual new york"

[wind spoke]

GUYS im getting really annoyed why do people do DH in Discovery ? its a waste of time

[lone valve]

I had 622 hours in div 2 this year
Probably because I usually take 2 month breaks from it when the season is kinda dead

[thorny talon]

He forgor 🫥

[wind spoke]

? whats that ?

[thorny talon]

Lemme break it for you

[wind spoke]

please 🙂

[thorny talon]

• Starts emoting default dance *

[inner harness]

I run it with friends to mess around bc it's so easy

We 1 tapped every boss 2 man including razor

[wind spoke]

ah 😛 but so many people do it most lobby are discovery its so random

[inner harness]

Yeah randoms there's no point

[thorny talon]

Or confused noobs

[inner mason]

so has anyone done any testing with the festive backpack?

heard it's broken but the dude didn't specify how and he was talking about it as if it was great

[lone valve]

Broken no
Is it fun and somewhat useable yes

[tender wave]

You can't matchmake ingame for Normal, only Discovery

[unreal jolt]

Does it change anything destroying the weak spots from the aerial recon?

[tender wave]

Makes it move around less

And the middle one briefly disables it

[broken solstice]

if you destroy a missile right after its launched you can blow up the whole marauder

[lone valve]

You can shoot it's missile?
Learn smth new everyday

[kind veldt]

Huh didnt even know you could shoot the missile

[lone valve]

That's probably because I outright avoid aerial recons like the plague 😭

[tender wave]

You've said that before, I spent like half an hour farming the ones in Stovepipe manhunt trying to do that, it never worked

[inner harness]

It just shocks it doesn't it

[broken solstice]

its not easy

[tender wave]

You just can't blow the missiles as far as I could tell

[lone valve]

Hmmmm 🤔

Division 2 myth busters

[tender wave]

Want to see video proof, I'd love if it were true because I hate marauders

[lone valve]

Who doesn't

[broken solstice]

aim exactly where the missiles come out. the thing makes a noise before it launches

[blazing sleet]

Just shoot red weakpoints ??

[unreal jolt]

Didn't even know that, makes sense though as the same can be done with nades

[blazing sleet]

And emp

[inner harness]

I can try to get a video tonight if yw

HH and tac 50 should 1 shot the wp

And it highlights it

[tender wave]

I did, a whole bunch of times

[broken solstice]

damn

i dunno ive only done it twice

[lone valve]

The next great division 2 debate

Guess I'll try it next time I find a aerial recon

[tender wave]

Breaking the weakpoints doesn't do any damage, it just stops them moving around so much

[blazing sleet]

Red weakpoint in middle does dmg

[tender wave]

Disables them for a few seconds is all

[broken solstice]

I did it the first time by accident. Didn't know that was going to happen. I think the timing has to be super specific and lucky

And I've gotten blown up a lot of times since the 2nd time it happened trying to do it again

Probably need a weapon w good range. St Elmo's did it tho

I'll try to get footage tho

[polar chasm]

any info if the specialization revamp is also coming in the project resolve, havent heared about the revamp in a long time

[tender wave]

no, it's on indefinite hold

they mentioned a whole endgame revamp with the dlc, so that might include specialisations (in 2025)

[polar chasm]

too bad, guess thats the end for my division experience, nothing really new came to the game in a long time

[broken solstice]

A pts just happened with lots of changes..

[polar chasm]

played snb beta this weekend, so no time for the pts, not sure why they put those out on the same time

[broken solstice]

Oh dang

[lone valve]

They don't collide with each other lol
One is a pirate game where ur stuck on ur boat

The other is a looter shooter

Very much doubt the player base intersects with each other

[marble egret]

Hi guys, i have a question for you. For the winter project with the ugly green sweater , how many try have you got it the Private Cole ? because I try 10 time and still he's not spawn. And I don't now what I do wrong , I watch 5 videos on yt for it , but I do the same thing and I don't get it. What can i do?

[broken solstice]

It took me like 6 tries

[wind spoke]

Guys why do i just see chinese in the chat ??????

[full zinc]

Because some if the player base is chinese

[wind spoke]

honestly i dont see any english

wtfff

[quasi verge]

The English use Discord.

[zinc shadow]

we’re everywhere, in the shadows

[broken solstice]

Damn what a pain getting this festive backpack w good rolls. I got like 4 with weapon handling and explosive resistance. One with max headshot and Max wpn dmg. But damn I guess I know my plan for this afternoon

[lone valve]

Me that got chd and chc on my only one

[uneven herald]

I'm 5 stars away from getting the exotic cache from the Jack League with 4 stars to gain on the Darpa labs and 7 stars on Outcast disoriented, anyone that could help out with that?

[broken solstice]

Yeah I saw that. Nice find

[inner harness]

I remember like a Yr ago when it came out and just by beating the league time I got like 80th

Got sub 5s like first try on dua both weeks

[real creek]

Ahhh how nice it is to have leaderboards without hackers. I can get top 100 pretty easy sometimes then it'll just be drown out by 1-2 minute times.

[inner harness]

Xbox is dominated by mnk users

[lone valve]

Still manifesting heroic leagues to come back

[inner harness]

It was so hard to get 5th on dua group on controller

4:40

[lone valve]

I only do the leagues solo

Might just be a me thing

[inner harness]

It's easier in group

[lone valve]

Yea ik but I like the challenge of speed running them solo

[real creek]

Solo vs group depends. Some are faster one way vs the other.

[lone valve]

Isn't the best group for leagues a duo?

[inner harness]

In week 1 I got #2 in like 45 mins with a 4:48 and stopped

[real creek]

Depends on the mission.

[inner harness]

Some are trio

[uneven herald]

Yeah I ran a duo and got 21 min which is trash D:

[inner harness]

Federal bunker, did and some others as examples

Dcd*

[lone valve]

How's darpa ran

[inner harness]

People dont

[lone valve]

That's always a pain in the ass for me

Yea but it's in the league

[inner harness]

It's such a luck based mission to get perfect

[real creek]

With 2 casually we can do it in like 10-11 minutes.

[inner harness]

Every room has upward of 5 randomised spawns

[lone valve]

Rather run zoo than darpa tbh

[inner harness]

Darpa you want future oxis and eclipse for duo speedruns

For most rooms

[uneven herald]

I've recently gotten back in to the game in the past few days so I'm absolutely trash

[lone valve]

It's fine we've all been there

[inner harness]

If you want a time you can get top 10 on most issues

With no*

[real creek]

Check out the spreadsheet pined in #td2-build-advice if you need builds. Otherwise make some friends and have fun at least.

[uneven herald]

Thanks, I've checked it but I'm still clueless lmao...

[real creek]

Well just ask away.

[lone valve]

What are you clueless about
We can help

[inner mason]

does the festive talent proc in PVP?

on the new backpack

[uneven herald]

I've got the basics down and such, but I just want more dmg and not die as often

[inner mason]

you can invest in 1 piece Belstone on youe build and it'd be enough for most encounters. it gives you a passive 1% armor regen.

fits in most builds if you farm for the correct rolls on it

[inner harness]

3% next season

[inner mason]

lol the Gila is going to be nuts

[broken solstice]

Strategy. Positioning is everything. Having fall back spots is important

[inner mason]

still 3 piece investment is a lot ngl

[inner harness]

?

[uneven herald]

Yeah I tend to take everything slow and just stay back as much as possible

[inner harness]

Better to go 1 pc bel 2pc golan and emperors

[broken solstice]

Memento, 3 gila, 2 golan

[inner harness]

7% from just set effects

[broken solstice]

8%

[inner harness]

With memento is 10 already

[uneven herald]

I just don't know where to get all the gear and if I do I just don't have enough friends to run things fast enough to be efficient

[broken solstice]

Over 150k per second

[inner harness]

Why run 3pc gila

1pc Belstone and emperors is 1% more regeneration and 1 less piece you can put into something better

Or just 2 pc golan same regen 1 less piece

[broken solstice]

Emperors guard has 1 attribute.

[lone valve]

Countdown challenging and matchmaking it's fine tbh

[inner mason]

nah once Gila gets the 3P bonus adjustment it's gonna be better than Golan+Belstone and Murakami. you need 4P to get armor regen with the latter and only 3 with the former.

[uneven herald]

I'll give that a shot

[lone valve]

Select the loot you want and farm away
Just follow the group if you don't know what to do yet

[inner harness]

Wym 4 pc

Golan is 2 Belstone is 1

Isn't it all changed to 3%?

[inner mason]

2P golan +Belstone and 1 murakami to get 3% armor regen

Gila's 3P bonus is 3% armor regen

[real creek]

They are talking about PTS stuff.

[inner mason]

I know

[inner harness]

They're all being changed to 3% aren't they

[inner mason]

go and read his comment

[broken solstice]

No

[inner harness]

That's what I was told

[inner mason]

nope

[broken solstice]

Incorrect

[real creek]

They might not even be these numbers anyway.

[inner harness]

Then that's where its going wrong

[broken solstice]

Yeah that might change

[lone valve]

People forget there's a phase 2

And then after than a month probably till it comes out so

[inner mason]

there is but we're talking as of now with the information provided.

3P Gila will be the way to go if the values don't change.

back to the festive backpack. does it work in PVP?

[broken solstice]

Im just saying using emperors guard deprives you of one attribute slot which could be used for crit or Regen. Belstone is Also 1% and has 2 attributes

[inner mason]

yeah that's what I was saying. with the new Gila changes you don't need use 4 pieces and one of them has one changeable roll with a useless attribute.

[inner harness]

People already run emperors as on a maxed setup it's like 22/23k regen

Current patch

I hate armour regen builds but some people like them

[inner mason]

that being the murakami kneepads which are already hard to get because they're DZ exclusive.

[broken solstice]

Yeah but for max armor Regen you need to choose between belstone and emperors

[inner harness]

I normally see on armour regen setups either
1 Belstone
2 golan
3 foundry

[broken solstice]

It's gonna be 3 gila now

For 3%

[inner harness]

1 Belstone
2 golan
Emperors
Memento
2 other pieces

I normally see one of those 2 when inspecting others

[inner mason]

armor regen is useful for pvp

[inner harness]

I don't think I even owe an armour regen piece tho

[broken solstice]

Memento, 3 gila, 2 golan, 1 belstone

[inner harness]

Can't run all of those

[broken solstice]

No I mean just 2golan. No belstone nvm

[inner harness]

I'd go for memento over Belstone personally

[inner mason]

memento 3P Gila 1P belstone and Murakami

too much imo

[inner harness]

3% plus dmg and better shield

Memento is actually quite good when maxed stacks though I never use it in pvp

Pve*

[vernal lion]

finished the expansion and the main story now what?

[inner mason]

yeah I was about to memento in PVP is hard to use proficiently

[inner harness]

Builds, raids speedruns etc

[inner mason]

too much downtime

[real creek]

You done all the legendary missions? Collected all hunter mask in NY and DC? Have you gotten all the raid exotics and the incursion extoic? Done all your exotic crafting projects?

[split ether]

hello , somebody know if we can drop ouroboros in count down ?

[real creek]

Incursion only.

[split ether]

thx bud

[fiery cloud]

Hey Souless

[wind spoke]

Guys how do i get maxed out mods ?

[tender wave]

by farming

[wind spoke]

honestly been all day on summit and couldnt find it

[tender wave]

higher difficulties & mod target loot with directives will help, for max chance try legendary summit with lots of directives

heroic countdown probably next best option

[wind spoke]

ok 🙂

[delicate rose]

ever wondered who taught div2 enemies that walking right into you isn’t how it works

[tender wave]

same person who taught friendly NPCs to walk right into you

[delicate rose]

oh yeah, love when they do that

also love having a gunfight with someone an npc they full sprint into melee range

[quasi verge]

I like when they jump out of cover just to face tank some bullets.

[delicate rose]

😭😭

peak npc tactics

[quasi verge]

"I wasn't even shooting at you buddy, but you go right ahead and jump in line."

[thorny talon]

"You conquer your fear by walking towards it not by fearing and running away"

[lone valve]

Two exotics in one single CD run lmao rng is on my side today maybe I should buy a lottery ticket 🤣

[delicate rose]

try 3

adorable

Festive delivery is funny as hell to watch in CD lmao
It's fireworks everywhere

Why would we bother when you won't?

[tulip moon]

[pseudo quail]

Hello

[near crest]

[near crest]

[pseudo quail]

Nice 😂

[tulip moon]

You can get the backpack so fast alone. i dont get this lazy ass take

[near crest]

[pseudo quail]

The backpack is to eqsy

Spawn at the one dark zone run the Spot log out and Do it again

[reef reef]

If you want help, check in the LFG chats. And maybe just do the project?

[near crest]

i dont have the bag yet lol

[worldly sentinel]

I'm down for a 1 time charity work. What's your in-game name? I'll send you in-game invite. This offer expires once it's crossed out.
Well I waited for 10 mins. 🫶

[tawny fable]

shit, what do you even have to do for the project?

i’m sure it’s not that hard 🤨

[tender wave]

there's a couple of annoying bits where you have to find a named enemy at night but his spawn is rng, can take a while - the rest of the tasks are very easy.

[tawny fable]

ooh, rng my favorite

easy enough though tbh

[worldly sentinel]

It's not it's just some people like handouts

[tawny fable]

could just go out and do it themselves instead lol

[worldly sentinel]

#td2-general-chat message

[tawny fable]

oh no, i have to work my loot! be so fr 😭😭

[worldly sentinel]

Well I waited for 10 mins to do a 1 time charity work but I guess @near crest is no longer interested. 😕

[tawny fable]

you gave it your best shot

[worldly sentinel]

[daring saddle]

?

[alpine lantern]

Is there a sensible time to buy shared materials on a new character or does it not matter at all?

[near crest]

omg sorry

i was feeding my cat

[real creek]

Doesn't matter.

[mellow forum]

matchmaking dead in lower levels?

im lvl 3 and cant seem to find anyone

[fluid meadow]

Almost the entire playerbase is at level 40

[chrome cave]

Just grind to level 40. Game is easy enough solo in story mode. And call for backup if you find a mission too difficult

[junior sorrel]

how is population end game?

[fluid meadow]

Pretty live

You would see uprises when events come

As of currently it is popular since there is 2 events going on

[junior sorrel]

k ty

[fluid meadow]

1 of which isn't really great but whatever

[glass charm]

Np was fun despite the difficulties 😆

[worldly sentinel]

😅 just 1 difficulty lol

[low lily]

Dz is pretty fun also

[night otter]

is it me or the servers are really bad today? i got disconected like 4 times byt now

[lone valve]

I love how I did an incursion today
Wright dropped the first exotic from a boss I've seen for me
(ninja knees)
Then Johnson drops an oreo
Yea I definitely need to buy a lottery ticket 🤣

[ebon parrot]

jeez i just had a main character moment

[junior sorrel]

@lone valve gotta be in it to win it

[merry iris]

man farming this hollywood event is really boring....

[real creek]

Hollywood event kinda bleh if you ask me. It's all negative toward you, no way to feel stronger.

[tender wave]

yeah it's my least favourite of the GEs, I usually don't even bother turning it on (having got the original rewards years ago)

[night otter]

the only event i love is golden bullet

[tender wave]

reworked version of it sounds like it could be fun though

[lone valve]

I kinda like shd exposed somewhat but the top two are reanimated and golden bullet

Reanimated reworked will give even more head shot damage
And more weakness to it lol

Not like it needed it

[tender wave]

yeah, the rework might be annoying if the clouds are bigger and more damaging, that means more enemies will die to that and reanimate before you can headshot them

[neon wyvern]

Good thing they are gonna gigabuff explosions when the ge is running

[real creek]

Sounds good to me tho. You need headshot kills on reanimated peeps.

[tender wave]

only if you're chasing that one task, the rest of the time it just slows your progress

[neon wyvern]

Triple damage ravenous will be awesome

[lone valve]

They still need to fix guardians biggest problem
When a controller enemy is the guardian and is at the back hiding

Makes it so unfun and annoying

[neon wyvern]

Kill the controller then

[real creek]

They just run away some times. WHY TF YOU RUNNIN

[neon wyvern]

[lone valve]

Gonna take his bloody joystick away

[serene elk]

Rouge agents are the worst offenders of running

[neon wyvern]

I think the opposite

[real creek]

Uhhh phrasing?

[neon wyvern]

unless open world

[serene elk]

Mfer spawns on my heroic control point and then runs 0.5km before I even get the chance to finish the leader off

[lone valve]

Only if you want it to be.

[real creek]

lol

[lone valve]

We need to hack their minitanks
Let us sit in the safe house and control it and do Cps for us

[neon wyvern]

We need the legendary versions that move and shoot bombs without the operator having to sit still

[pure saffron]

The way to make an Controller come out of hiding is bust the tracks on the tank, and then the controller comes out to heal the tank.

[timid lichen]

quick question: what is the invaded stronghold this week?

[pure saffron]

Manning Zoo

[timid lichen]

:O so if i want a part for the nemesis weapon i can't get it this week?

[pure saffron]

Since Nemesis project was before Manning Zoo was ever in the game, they really added a 'next level' to getting that weapon in the original 3 weeks it should take. No there's no Boss the project requires in Manning Zoo.

[timid lichen]

Thank you! Then my best bet is farming countdown again and hoping for the best... I love timegates xd

[neon wyvern]

Zoo drops a random nemesis part you don't have instead of a specific

[merry iris]

ok guys week 2, got 2 exotic caches and a legacy seasonc cache. WILL I GET ST ELMOS????

answer was no. Got a crappy tardigrade armor and a "ninja bike" whatever that is.

[timid lichen]

Thanks for that info!

[stone quest]

i havent ever gotten one from a cache but ive gotten like 3 from targeted loot for ARs

[merry iris]

been farming for 2 weeks 😂 havent gotten shit from countdown or summit

[azure lintel]

I gotta say even after 4 years KackisHD was spot on with his critique about TD2. Kinda funny how Ubisoft Massive is still making the exact same mistakes after so many years

[lone valve]

Who

[neon wyvern]

Cares

[azure lintel]

You can look him up on YT. He has over a million subs

[azure lintel]

I do and apparently 300k+ as well. The guy was spot on. Seems like Ubisoft Massive hasn't learnt anything after so many years

[molten spire]

do you know how little this narrows things down

[lone valve]

I did and he's a destiny yter so not really interested tbh

[azure lintel]

He still gave TD2 a chance. The point where he mentions how they nerf builds completely into uselessness just because it's popular in the Dark Zone even if you're not playing the Dark Zone is still a thing. They nerfed the crap out of Kingsbreaker & Heartbreaker not too long ago just because people were using it in the Dark Zone as if anyone cared about TD2's PvP at this point

I came back to my build being completely useless after a year and uninstalled the game right away

[reef reef]

Your build wasnt completely useless.

[ebon parrot]

do you guys have Picaro's holster ?

[azure lintel]

I for one won't be stepping another foot into countdown where either everyone and their mother is crashing at the beginning or leaves. It's not fun farming gear in this game. What are they even thinking when nerfing builds completely into ground just because some people use it in the Dark Zone? What about players that don't even play any PvP or Dark Zone? Why do we have to have our gear nerfed too just because of it

[azure lintel]

It was day an night difference when I recently tried it after a year. I thought I was using the wrong build checking everything. I was very upset about what they have done to my build I spent farming for weeks and months

don't get me wrong I'm not a fan of Kackis either and I know that he's mainly a destiny youtuber but his video explaining why he stopped playing TD2 which he made 4 years ago was so spot on for me

I wish Massive would have picked up on his feedback

[reef reef]

-not everyone is crashing, not anymore
-gear farming is NOT the problem, this is a looter shooter
-they have been nerfing things to different degrees in pve and pvp for a long time now
-they have been picking up on feedback, every PTS has had a "pts feedback channel" where they actually do take the feedback provided

[kind veldt]

i owuld more interested in whatw build was nerfed

[reef reef]

there have been VERY FEW builds "nerfed into the ground" in the last 3 years- i can only reeeeeally think of like, HF with intimidate which is still alright

[kind veldt]

cause some nasty stuff definetly needed, others i think it were poorly made

[ebon parrot]

Skill Haste is the cooldown of your habilities after they have been used right?

[lone valve]

Yes

[azure lintel]

well gear farming becomes a problem when despite matchmaking for endgame activities in the highest world tier and level such as summit can't find you any players. The last time I played Countdown was a miserable experience. You had either everyone crashing on heroic or just leave right away. It was incredibly frustrating. The crashes led me to stop playing a year ago

[ebon parrot]

bro u know about this Picaro's holster ??

[glass forge]

Might be a dumb question, but what’s the point of the dark zone ?

[lone valve]

Yea
You can get it by farming it

[reef reef]

ay real quick when was the last time you went and ran a countdown

[azure lintel]

My game is luckily not crashing but I still see people crashing in the game

[azure lintel]

a year ago and it was enough to never play that activity again. I never seen a worse matchmaking in a game

[ebon parrot]

I'm creating a new tank build and i already have the 5 piece bulwark and a chill out mask to stack protection from elites, now i'm undecided if i should get this holster or a normal D&H holster due to 20% pistol damage (it's a pistol + shield build)

[azure lintel]

you had people leave the game constantly and nobody else was allowed to join after so you were forced to leave as well and start matchmaking for 7 more players again which took a long time too

[reef reef]

They've genuinely fixed that problem in the last few months. Maybe verify the things you are saying are still true before heading into... this.

[kind veldt]

i'm still curious about the builds because i dont remember any backbreaking nerf

[azure lintel]

I can only speak from my experience. This stuff should have not been a thing in the first place. It remained that way for months

[kind veldt]

i guess some people did get pissed at heartbreaker

[lone valve]

HB was nerfed but that was cuz it did the wrong type of damage?

So that wasn't intended ever

[tawny fable]

countdown kinda fucks tho

[lone valve]

Other than that I don't remember anything nerfed heavily

[tawny fable]

in like, the best way possible imo

[kind veldt]

it was additive instead of multiplicative or vice versa

[lone valve]

Yea

[kind veldt]

it was outdoing striker

[azure lintel]

But like I said the main gripe for me to uninstall TD2 again after coming back to it after a year was the heavy nerfs to my gear just because people apparently used the same gear in the Dark Zone

[lone valve]

Plus bonus armor
Different time line where they left hb like that

[tough terrace]

HI
is there any way to swap weapon positions in inventory while in descent
or skill positions?

[reef reef]

heartbreaker was genuinely just striker but with armor. it was nerfed to keep it in line. It wasnt nerfed "because people apparently used the same gear in the Dark Zone"

[azure lintel]

there's still The Division 1 luckily

[tawny fable]

aspect! heyoooo

[reef reef]

heyooo!

[tawny fable]

💖

[lone valve]

I genuinely have no idea what was even nerfed apart from hb which wasn't even intended

[azure lintel]

it was definitely nerfed because people were using it in the Dark Zone. Many players were saying that exact same thing. This is sadly how they go about balancing their game.

[lone valve]

Since they resumed support

They haven't gone out of their way to nerf stuff into the ground

[azure lintel]

If gear gets popular in the DZ they'll be nerfing it at one time to the ground. This has been done many times and even recently

[lone valve]

HB was never intended to have that type of damage it wasn't nerfed because of DZ it was nerfed because it was bugged

[reef reef]

i get you are annoyed and all and want the game to be better, but like... you havent even verified quite a few things you've said. I'm not continuing this. Countdown (and the game in general, as the crashes have been mostly fixed) is in a much better place now, your build is still fine, it isnt the end all be all for damage (as it should not be, it is a bruiser set not a glass cannon type set) and the farming aspect of the game is genuinely better than its ever been, with project resolve just around the corner. This feels like complaining just to complain.

[kind veldt]

what gear was it?

[lone valve]

If its not HB then nothing else got nerfed into the ground

[azure lintel]

My build was so heavily nerfed that it is no longer viable in endgame PvE. Especially for solo play. I get easily melted while barely doing any damage from any add with the build that was doing a great job a year ago before the heavy nerfs. TY DZ and PvP players I guess. I don't think I'm willing to give TD2 another chance, sorry. They're continuing to balance gear around PvP and DZ players. I'll hard pass on that. I'm not constantly farming gear for months while struggling to find other players to play with just to have my build nerfed into complete uselessness few months later. This is not working for me anymore. I validate my time

There's a lot more games out there. But appreciate your help. I might check out TD3 if it's not going to end up being a complete disaster. It still years away though since they only recently started developement on that game. I fear this franchise will be sadly long gone and forgotten

[azure lintel]

It was Heartbreaker and Kingsbreaker combo. I farmed for the exotic mask alone at least 2 months

[lone valve]

You still have not said what ur build was

Oh

Like I said HB was not nerfed it was never intended to release like it did

[kind veldt]

as people said it was doing wrong math

it was doing more damage than the designeted DPS set

and dont be mistaken hearbreaker is still pretty good

and they buffed striker to compensate and make the difference more clear

[azure lintel]

they had it around for months without changing anything and a year later I came back to NPCs taking not only my shield out with 3 bullets while also dropping me to 5% health while stripping all my armor with half their mags

[kind veldt]

the end result was more buffs than nerfs

[lone valve]

If hb stayed like that with bonus armor it'd be meta rn
Unless they buffed striker to the moon and kept hb like that

[azure lintel]

I was emptying 4 magazines into a single NPC and that NPC was still alive it was just ridiculous cause that same build would easily kill mobs in high level solo play

what made it more ridiculous for me was I played Wildlands right before it which I really loved and finished in only a few sessions

[kind veldt]

man if your hearbreaker is still struggling it was not really good before my man

cause it wasonly like a 20% nerf at most

survivability is still strong and damage can be stacked with talents

it only took a hit in damage

[azure lintel]

for me it felt like a 120% I did pretty much anything with that build without any problems a year ago it was night and day difference I checked my gear multiple times cause I thought I was using the wrong gear or missing something

[lone valve]

I guarantee you in HBs current state it is still extremely useable

[small spear]

yeah without the actual build details i can't really say what felt wrong back then and now for you

[azure lintel]

I might install TD2 again this week to give it another shot but I still have to finish AC Mirage

[small spear]

there are also changes to how it works towards some types of enemies so if you've been shooting something like a minitank or turret you're not going to get stacks on it so no damage is understandable

[kind veldt]

cause it was honestly a change that made it stop stacking damage from something like 117% to just 85% or similar

[small spear]

it's 2.7x to 2x

[azure lintel]

oh that explains a lot

[small spear]

striker does not suffer from the same limitation btw. it's a tradeoff many people underrate

[azure lintel]

that's a huge change if it wasn't intended to come out as it did they shouldn't have had it around for that long

[lone valve]

I don't understand that change tbh

Guess it's to stop farming bonus armor?

[small spear]

it was for pvp mostly but made its way to pve as they always do

[lone valve]

Ah

[small spear]

people shoot decoys in pvp to stack

you can stack off the holograms

[azure lintel]

wow that works lol

[lone valve]

Interesting

[small spear]

so they made the change to stop people from stacking off skill proxies

[lone valve]

They could probably revert in PVE but Idek if they are even aware of it lol 😭
Or if it can be locked to only pvp

[small spear]

and that also affects pve, where turrets or stuff (doesn't include warhounds) that actual humans deploy count as skill proxies too

so yeah i hope i clarified where HB falls short, because not many people mention this at all but this is especially relevant against black/white tusk

[azure lintel]

I wish we wouldn't be affected by these changes similarly in PvE. I personally never play DZ or PvP in TD2

[kind veldt]

the only thing i'm still mad about PVP really is double barrel shotgun

[azure lintel]

was the catharsis nerfed as well? It wasn't providing any health pools during fights for me

[lone valve]

Last winter project is out FYI
It's a santa beard

[small spear]

catharsis is only nerfed when it comes to DoT status effect ticks

so bleed, burn, poison ticks don't stack it

but getting hit with non-status effect damage still stacks it

[azure lintel]

at least one piece of gear that wasn't as hard nerfed from my build lol

I will give the game another shot this week and will also check out how countdown has changed

[small spear]

yeah, people are still casually getting through content with the builds we have rn, it's just the right builds and skill level

[kind veldt]

if i can get by through all content with an 'meh' OD build except legendary and incursion

you'll be fine

[azure lintel]

oh the builds of other players weren't really an issue for me when I played a year ago but more so half of the team crashing at the start of the activity and the other half leaving shortly after

I'm hoping they fixed that part

[small spear]

countdown crashing is mostly fixed from my own experience

[kind veldt]

my own crashing was related to EAC not liking me having a controller plugged in

even if it was not being used oddly enough

[azure lintel]

appreciate for clearing things up a little for me @small spear going to head out already night time for me

[dusty fulcrum]

Anyone found the winter project they today yet?

[small spear]

glad to help

[azure lintel]

My game never crashed, but I had majority of people joining my group crash on me unfortunately which was almost equally as bad

[sudden canopy]

At the base of the giant Christmas tree in the Winter Market South of the White House

[dusty fulcrum]

I thought it was the roaming guys just south of the White House. It was a different named boss tho

[azure lintel]

Where’s the Santa Beard exactly? I can’t find it in the holiday market. What does it mean by Tommy is guarding it?

[dusty fulcrum]

I’m guessing Tommy is the name of the roving boss. I found a group, but it didn’t have him in it

[lone valve]

Tommy is the teddy near the big Christmas tree at the holiday market

[azure lintel]

There’s no videos on it yet either.

[lone valve]

(teddy bear)

I found it
Same Christmas market south of the white house

[safe jungle]

anyone know were Tommy at im holiday market here

[lone valve]

Go to the big Christmas tree and you'll see a teddy bear
Near him there's a present you can interact with

The teddy is sitting on the chair he is Tommy

[marble egret]

Hey guys, the private cole it's glitchy? or it's just on my session , I try to get him but its not been spawn. I did it for like 20+ tries.

[dusty fulcrum]

Lol. I must’ve missed that part of the lore

[safe jungle]

another santa beard bruh lol

[azure lintel]

Thanks guys just found it!

[dusty fulcrum]

It’s not a roving boss. By the big tree south of the White House there is a bear sitting on a chair. The package next to him is the season project

[marble egret]

?

[kind veldt]

big tree and cole are different projects

[dusty fulcrum]

Ah. I meant for todays project

[marble egret]

Thx but not that one

[dusty fulcrum]

Is Cole the one that the hint talks about the end of the world?

[marble egret]

Its the winter project , about a convoy doing supply runs between the Ark and DZ East

[dusty fulcrum]

Oh ok. You have to do that one after 2100 in game. If you start at the ark, there is usually a radio tower mission on the way. He usually spawns around there (pulse helps to find him). It may take a couple of tries.

[marble egret]

yea i did that for liek 20+ and not a chance to see him

i try it to force spawning him but not a chance

[rapid hazel]

just redownloaded the game, can I do any better chance wise than grinding summit/countdown with targeted loot to get the st elmos?

[dusty fulcrum]

Yea those missions have been super annoying to trigger. He came out of a door a little north of that area on the street and hopped a fence near that radio mission.

[shrewd nebula]

Quick question guys, to those who know the answer.
Reformation (Headshots grants +30% Skill Repair for 15s) is supposed to add an icon on your active perks bar?
Because I'm using headshots and even headshot kills and no icon appears, so I don't know if the damn is working or bugged out

[kind veldt]

not really

[bitter wraith]

Is it just me or rng is trash in this game?

I've done over 10 countdowns by now and still haven't got what I'm looking for

[stone quest]

yea can be very hit and miss at times

can get like 3 sweet dreams before i got my first scorpio

Follow-up to a previous post:

Unable to gain proficiency levels after donating Festive Delivery

The BP was supposed to be the last (15) winter project. Appears that was not the case. Has anyone tried donating the BP after acquiring the Santa’s beard vanity item? Unable to try atm, and just curious if that was the issue. Aware it’s under “investigating” I n trello.

[dapper crescent]

guys a question I have technician without ever completing the field research and my question is how do I have technician?

[kind veldt]

if you have the year 1 pass you got all specializations

the field research is just for extras like cosmedics and maybe a blueprint

[dapper crescent]

I dont have gunner

[kind veldt]

okay then i dont know

[dapper crescent]

where do I see if I have year 1 pass?

[real creek]

In game head to the store and go to your add ons. Shows what you own there.

[dapper crescent]

no I dont own it

[cedar flicker]

Anyone ever got eagle bearer or ravenous on dz? Or it must play dark hour or iron horse?

[dapper crescent]

guys I have to neutralize lt. kelly in air & space museum but its currently occupied by black tusk (I completed the invasion version of it) when does it go back to normal?

oh wait now

I somehow changed like the mode

[hybrid ore]

@cedar flicker Eagle Bearer, Ravenous, and Bighorn are all available in the DZ, but they're incredibly low drop-rates, you're better off just running a raid (Normal only, Discovery gives you nothing)

[dapper crescent]

in the mission settings

[cedar flicker]

We can do raid on normal dificulty?

[hybrid ore]

Raids only come in "normal" and "discovery" mode. It's not actually normal difficulty.

It's closer to Heroic, kinda.

[hybrid ore]

When you hover over the name on the map, "toggle" appears towards the bottom of your screen.
This changes the mission type between all available options.

[cedar flicker]

Welp gonna try with find random group later

[hybrid ore]

#lfg-raid-pc Will be your best bet, you can't matchmake for Normal Raids ingame.

as long as you have a good red DPS build, listen to the team, and know a bit about it, you'll be able to do Dark Hours fairly easily.
Iron Horse is a lot tricker.

[tawny fable]

Rivens! heyooo!

[hybrid ore]

oh hey Ali!

long time no see.

[tawny fable]

i know! school’s been tossing me around lately lol

[pliant sentinel]

goblin keeps dropping sleigher

[dapper crescent]

nice right when I need a convoy because of the mission there is none

[pliant sentinel]

oh sick, goblin spawns in day time

[sick thicket]

whos idea was it to add the collector with the new backpack

they need fired

[wooden pewter]

So I played this when it was first released and am just coming back to it. Never did any of the endgame stuff, so I'm kind of pushing through the storyline to hit level 30 to start that. Just curious, if I skip all the side missions, will they still be available after finishing the main missions?

[pulsar lance]

Only if you don't boost to NY with the expansion. Play through all of the world tiers.

[wooden pewter]

I did buy the expansion, so I should wait until finishing WT5 to do that?

[pulsar lance]

On at least your main character.

[wooden pewter]

Yeah, I'm a 1 character type of player.

[pulsar lance]

Extra characters I would boost.

[wooden pewter]

Thanks!

[pulsar lance]

You're very welcome

[sick thicket]

have any of u ran into the new backpack being used in dz/conflict?

if not, you're in for a laugh

"we're completely reworking status effects for the dark zone. in the meantime, throw a grenade at your feet and down + instakill any player within 20 meters"

[flat matrix]

best way to get mounted kills?

[ebon parrot]

Does the artificer hive shield healing is only increased by repair skills atributes or also by Skill tier?

[sick thicket]

control points that have a mounted gun attached to them

1 sec ill find u the one that i recommend

[sick thicket]

it's called navy plaza

next to the 1040 safehouse or viewpoint museum mission. i believe if its a heroic/alert lvl 4 cp, the spawn point is fixed and theyll only come from the courtyard that the mounted gun faces

[hybrid ore]

The final area of Roosevelt Island has 2 mounted guns and pretty much infinitely spawning enemies nearby. That's where I farmed out mine years back.

[sick thicket]

That's also smart as well

Would go that route. Can't remember during which mission you're required to get kills with a mounted gun

Might be after you do that first step

[dapper crescent]

its a mission of field research for the gunner

[dapper crescent]

fallen cran control point and the other one thats nearby something with I believe destroyed have mounted guns

[flat matrix]

and i can't reconfigure at crafting station.

[dense saffron]

He did?

[hidden relic]

i don't think you can deconstruct it

tried to do it before

[sterile ferry]

yeah. his video title was something like "when youre challenged to make a 5.11 build but you fall in love with it" or some shit

[blissful adder]

what should i do with it? cant even try to play with rifle, because of 8 lvl

[hidden relic]

well you could try reconfiguring it, you just need another exotic rifle i think

it's for that same reason i stopped bothering to reconfigure it lol

[blissful adder]

oh, another exotic rifle( boring

[dense saffron]

👌🏻

[lapis perch]

Well, considering my 2nd & 3rd questions were REALLY only necessary to reply to if the answer to ❓#1 was YES - thank you for the response! 😑

[sterile ferry]

infinite apologies

[lapis perch]

Please don't apologize, bro! I'm kinda drunk, and not in a "good" mood due to life's infinitesimal possibilities of "bad" shit happening at an exponentially accelerated rate, comparatively! Life gets us all down from time to time; and right now - life is LITERALLY oldskool Brock Lesnar beating a 12-year old into submission for me.

I'm good, though! I've been down this road before so many times I should start a band! 😆

[swift storm]

just realized u cant recal festive backpack

[unreal geode]

Use print matter to upgrade or use in game play.

[unreal geode]

I think this is reset because there is 14 items start fm 05/12 (end at 18/12), while we got the last item at campus control point and finish winter project, we got the backpack.

We can use other character to run the project and got the 2,3,4 backpack until this end up at 09/1/24.

[granite zephyr]

Man

Farmed countdown over 40 times today

No ninja bike backpack, 20 crates of exotic cache, no ninja bike

Only memento and useless acostas

[hybrid ore]

You went digging for coal and struck, well not gold, but high-end silver at least.

[copper shoal]

I usually get ninja from open world/summit

[hybrid ore]

It's the same Targeted Loot pool, although Countdown does have less overall "chance".
what makes Countdown good for farming is the sheer volume that you get, plus the caches.

[swift storm]

hopefully they fix recal bug on festive delivery

[granite zephyr]

Countdown farming is like material farming

See yellow? Click deconstruct all

If some attribute max, consider keeping(deconstructs 90% after game anyway)

[hybrid ore]

That is what I meant by "sheer volume", but yeah it's good for mass junk for sure.

[lone valve]

Nah lol countdown farming for me is loot all as junk look at everything after

[fair lake]

I still have crap stats so it won't help me 💀

[swift storm]

been trying to farm one with chc and chd but got none. on my 6th hour 😭

[fluid meadow]

Better find one with explosive resistance

[swift storm]

but i think they'll patch self dmg trigger

[heady smelt]

Do people play summit on matchmaking?

[hidden relic]

Countdown bores me slower than Summit

the only reason i even decided to floor 100 the Summit is for the adamant and the other mask

[full zinc]

Both these bags are infinitely better than ninja. RNG saved you

[lone valve]

Before countdown came out
Summit was the place to farm for almost 2 years tbh

It's just that now countdown is faster and more loot

Only thing it doesn't have is legendary

[supple niche]

Can i get the St.Elmos in Countdown?

[lone valve]

Yes

[supple niche]

I have over 40 Runs and the Elmos is not dropping

[lone valve]

That is RNG for you
It blesses and curses all players
Remember to spend the currency too on exotic caches for a bigger chance

[supple niche]

Thank you 🙂

[echo cloud]

dont remember the name of it, but that exotic smg which is the new meta

from incursion only? or did they change it to be more available yet?

[hidden relic]

of course

im not denying that, im just saying countdown is less boring for me

[echo cloud]

summit is genuinely the worst content in the game without question

[hidden relic]

i love ascending the same room

[lone valve]

Oh I agree

Summit by now Is horribly boring

[azure lintel]

There's little to no benefit in summit

for the time invested

[low hemlock]

guys does anyone dont have midas and revenant complete ? i tried summon them but i think my game is bug

i tried every possible way for them to spawn

[hidden relic]

you just have to do jumping jacks in the pool at night past 21:00

[low hemlock]

I did and i do it for entire of my evening

do it in 21:00 , 11:00

every angle

the light is also orange

it is so frustrating

[hidden relic]

that's weird, maybe you just aren't doing it in front of the box?

[low hemlock]

even when im typing right now im still doing it, but they are not spawning

[hidden relic]

they only spawn when you do jumping jacks specifically in front or on top of the box

[low hemlock]

you cannot get on that box

only cover and vault it

and yes i jumping jack around that box

[hidden relic]

well that's weird my Hunters spawned when i did it around that box

[low hemlock]

i really dont even care about the mask just ivory key

but i cant get them to spawn

[hidden relic]

dang i feel insulted i collected the Hunter masks because they looked cool and i wanted to use em and only learned about the keys when i finished off the WONY 4 Hunter group

[indigo garnet]

how do i join into countdown, when matchmaking all i see is 1 to 2 ppl

[frozen meadow]

What difficulty are you matchmaking for

[indigo garnet]

normal

[hidden relic]

well that explains

a lot of people are matchmaking on challenging difficulty since it drops better loot

[hybrid ore]

@indigo garnet Challenging/Heroic is where the bulk of players for Countdown are.

[indigo garnet]

ah, i see

ty

[hybrid ore]

it's basically because Challenging and above is where enemies only drop gearset/gold/exotic loot.

[indigo garnet]

okay, im pretty new to this gonna try out countdown

[sand herald]

I swear they wanna just remove this stupid backpack from xmas even.. its bugged to hell

[hybrid ore]

Well that's not very festive.

[sand herald]

No its not 😄 its stupid

[hidden relic]

i wish we get the recruiter's mask this season, it looks sick

[tawny fable]

i need the recruiter’s mask for my soup

[hidden relic]

idk what your soup is im just a cheapskate who wants to get a mask as close to covert hunter as possible without having to spend money

[kind veldt]

we need a poncho

[hidden relic]

true the recruiter's poncho is amazing too

[tawny fable]

they’ve got a poncho?!?

[kind veldt]

recruiter has a poncho, and i want that

[hidden relic]

same

[tawny fable]

recruiter is now on my rob list for the holidays

[hidden relic]

the recruiter's mask is awesome but the poncho really adds another layer of awesome

[hybrid ore]

I do love that the games industry just decided that poncho's were cool now.

Take that, people who got laughed at as kids!

[hidden relic]

what i don't love is the games industry deciding everybody but the PLAYERS get cool ponchos

i mean, just look at Red Dead Redemption 2

only online mode got ponchos and they suck

[hybrid ore]

Jedi Fallen Order you can wear one. They even give you new ones to collect and one makes you look a bit like an n1 starfighter.

[hidden relic]

seen gameplay but i haven't put it on my list to buy

[kind veldt]

well too few games are western to make ponchos cool]

[hybrid ore]

It's basically just dark souls lite, I've heard the new one is gooderer.
you can get a poncho in Warframe, but that's way later and a major spoiler.

[hidden relic]

jeez imagine a poncho being a major spoiler

[kind veldt]

character creator is a spoiler for that game

[hidden relic]

but i guess the mere mention of Orokin is a major spoiler in and of itself anyways

[hybrid ore]

The word "evangelion" is a spoiler for warframe. That universe is wild.

but yeah, no ponchos in div2. I doubt we could even wear one.

[lone valve]

Dz west selling the rock n roll 🤔

Point man in dz south but bad rolls

Ekims Long Stick in dz east

This decrease in expertise costs is really about to motivate me to continue grinding expertise 😭

[hybrid ore]

The latter two are available in the LZ, so I'd save your credits.
I guess you might as well grab a RnR whilst it's there, but it's not really a "mandatory purchase" or anything.

[lone valve]

Nah I have one already was just delivering info for anyone that wanted one

[hybrid ore]

In that case, good PSA Agent , keep it up.

[cosmic stratus]

anyone having issue with festive delivery. im donated t for expertise but its still at 0

[green charm]

i tryed to donate one thing and is increased

[sand herald]

that whole backpack is bugged 😄

DZ boom Conflict boom. Expertise doesn't work seems like an after thought

[green charm]

i have donated and work

[sweet osprey]

Bugpack 🙂

[sand herald]

Dont waste your mats tbh

It will prolly be removed or worse changed and you lose your mats

[green charm]

i tryed only one and is increased

and why removed?

i not think

[sand herald]

Have you seen what its doing in PVP right now lol xD

[inner mason]

I've successfully made an OP PVP build this backpack. I already had all the pieces from my other genade spamming explosive build. 80% explosive resistance once I get the backpack with the desired rolls on it

[green charm]

maybe is a bug but not remove that

only fix that

[inner mason]

you can survive multiple grenade explosions lol

also if you use a shield to "eat" the explosion it will still count as a hit and proc the backpack talent

[sand herald]

It's broken dude and being fixed hopefully no if's or buts

😛

[real creek]

You say it's broken but that's not on the trello. Just the recal and expertise issue.

[sand herald]

Check X for div 2

Its a known issue and the is looking into various options to fit it ASAP More info once i have the details, Daria

[real creek]

Sure. Still things like that don't get fixed unless they hit the trello. It's probably just damaging a target with a grenade procs it, kinda like sledge hammer. Should have tested it yo.

[low lily]

That backpack is best thing ever 🤣

@inner mason you got good ER for China and grupo?

[rain lark]

is there a chance we get this new update this week?

[kind veldt]

February

[inner mason]

@low lily oh it took me a week of farming like a month ago to get em. got China holster, Grupo gloves and kneepads with ER and HP

one Lengmo mask with ER and HP and now I just need to get* the perfect backpack.

too bad they all need optimisation and I'm out of mats. gotta lvl a new char soon

[low lily]

I have mine on like 74 but dmg is 3.2m to players without ER so I am happy 🤣

[real creek]

PTS is a test and this is currently the first of one of two. The changes seen in the PTS aren't always going to be reflected in the update they test for anyway.

Also yeah probably February as mentioned.

[rain lark]

😦

[opal radish]

5.11

[lone valve]

new christmas bundle in the store fyi

with a new mask

[rocky gust]

Hey tryna farm for that Elmo gun at the summit, do I need to be high lvl floor in order for them red guns to drop

[inner mason]

yeah with 74% you can survive like 3 explosions if you have 4 blues on your gear

[rain lark]

will they make the auspice hunter mask obtainable ever again?

[real moth]

Not necessarily

Are you still looking for elmos?

[hybrid ore]

@rocky gust The floor you're on really doesn't matter, what matters is that you have the correct Targeted Loot on (Assault Rifles in this case), and that you have some Directives stacked up. 6 is a good baseline, more is better, just stay fast. Oh and be on Challenging or higher.

[rocky gust]

😁👍 okay good to know, and @real moth if I can't get maybe I'll msg ya, and I'm returning play from season 2 redownload it and got hook back on seeing all those crazy builds

[grizzled heron]

Nope it's pretty easy drop seen guy get 3 in 1 run

[tawny wren]

I just bought the game and dlc. What do I gain from not skipping to lvl 30? (I've played 0-30 like 4 years ago)

[weary oyster]

You can go to dlc directly skipping everything else

Weapon won't matter as the cap is now 40

[real creek]

You miss out on story stuffs. You can always make a second character and run thru for the story tho.

[hidden relic]

you know i never understood why Hunters were created to hunt Division agents

do you really need a specially trained unit just to fight a bunch of civilians with extrajudicial powers..?

like, yeah, maybe they were primarily looking for people with a background in police or military

maybe they were given training

but come on, the Hunters feel overkill

[simple spoke]

guys can i ask you something?

what is the best place to farm the striker gear set easily?

[real moth]

Countdown

[hidden relic]

countdown

[midnight salmon]

countdown

[simple spoke]

thx 😂

[small spear]

did anyone answer with countdown yet? anyway countdown is the best way

[lone valve]

best loot is in the underground obviously

[serene elk]

It’s a bit ironic because hunters are The Division for The Division

[hidden relic]

i beg to disagree, Division agents are the underdogs in both stories

[serene elk]

But they likely have way more numbers

And there are cases of the agent you play as personally which hunts and kills hunters for sport

[hidden relic]

way more numbers maybe, but the local factions have local superiority

the average Hunter negs the average Division agent, NYC and DC are littered with dead Division agents

[serene elk]

That’s true

[simple spoke]

got 4 striker pieces in one run lol

that really worked for me

[serene elk]

But the whole point behind The Division is their “advanced” technology and collaborative unit

That needs not report to higher authority

[zinc shadow]

when the element of surprise that Hunters love doesn't lead to an ez clap, it's basically an even fight

[hidden relic]

in NY we literally had to build up a base from scratch, DC was a little better in that the remnants of the JTF were able to work through their problems on their own when the Division agents started arriving and relieved the pressure on them from the True Sons and other factions

[hidden relic]

sure the Division agents get cool gadgets that essentially turn them into an entire squad all by themselves but a lot of the times Black Tusk responds with their own tech and Hunters just disable your DARPA tech entirely

[zinc shadow]

SHD tech*

🔫

[serene elk]

That’s why I had “advanced” in quotations lmao

[serene elk]

NY was the original hotspot for the virus which is what made it so terrible from the beginning

[hidden relic]

let's not pretend SHD tech wasn't straight outta DARPA xd

[serene elk]

The JTF couldn’t handle the dark zone and it turned the first wave against them

[real creek]

GG

[zinc shadow]

there are actually two different answers as to why that isn't the case

[simple spoke]

that was quick

[hidden relic]

Division agents' main advantage is their tech which the Hunters constantly prevent them from using what with all the EMPs, we straight up see Division agents get clapped left and right and the agents we play in DC and NYC sound like they're the exception not the norms

[zinc shadow]

also fyi this is more #division-universe talk :^

[hidden relic]

oops

my bad

[quasi verge]

Man, I don't even know what's going on with countdown any more. We've got people who can't even follow the GPS...

[kind veldt]

there's a GPS?

jk

[serene elk]

You can turn GPS off

Maybe they hit the wrong key

🫠

[quasi verge]

I'm not sure 3 of 8 all turned it off accidently.

I mean, there aren't hidden objectives in CD are there? OR secret areas or anything?

Any conceivable reason for people to run off to non-mission areas in a timed event?

[real creek]

Ignorant/troll/poopy time?

[quasi verge]

That is pretty much all you are left with. Even at worst you follow the group. Buit these guys all went to separate areas.

[real creek]

Well you do run into arrogant people in countdown sometimes. So you'll see them kick people for stupid reasons if they are leader or they just go off and do their own thing. Now I will say challenging countdown can be done quicker if you break off and do things seperate but it requires good people and knowing what that objective entails. Doing countdown in 10 minutes vs 17 is a huge saver but I'd save that for organized groups.

[timber hatch]

Not everyone has the same destination auto selected for them, or they may have manually changed it to go somewhere else

[lime fulcrum]

chat for winter event which control point it is at western part?! 🤔

[real creek]

"party like it's the end of the world" So end of world CP....

[lime fulcrum]

[lime fulcrum]

if i want to be honest with you riddles are not my thing but i found it 😂

[dapper crescent]

what are territory control activities?
