buy the exotic cache
I have only been getting armor from them all I want is st Elmo’s
clearly you dont believe hard enough
Does targeted loot apply to caches
no
Finally got a weapon and it’s a duplicate lmao
I mean at this rate you could get a good famas instead
No clue how
New to endgame
Looking for a Elmo’s for my build anyway plus all the extra weapons are nice
Should ask build advice for that stuff
fast-hands/strained
3rd attribute should be damage to targets out of cover
Looks like season three drops Tuesday! Yay!!!
Well there is a developer stream Monday at 1030 so I’m assuming season comes out next day. Hope it does
yes it drops on feb 6
me watching the true sons attack the same control point every time i open the game
(they fail every time)
it's just civil war reenactment
me watching the skinwalker eating an outcast member outside the white house
When is the update ?
Check #news-and-announcements
@magic rock it’s Tuesday!!
whats the talents that gives bonus armor per kill?
backpack bloodsucker
is there a chest version?
No
Preservation and bloodsucker are the only ones I can think of
And the gunner/hf bonuses
Plus certain brandsets
bonus armour on kill
only bloodsucker does this
also if im not wrong backpack and chest each have their own talents so if its in backpack theres no "chest version" unless it does something similar but not identical
okay okay thanks
Oh bonus armour oops
bonus armor is the blue armor that disappear given some time right?
Yes
Let’s go thanks
Where is the patch notes
Galvanize gives bonus armor when you apply status effects. It’s good on a badger tuff bp using scorpio
@muffin man
he mentioned bonus armour on klill though
Lavoisier probably better anyway
Is it fun?
I played like 10 minutes and I was like no, this is not fun. Never touched it again
Yea it’s pretty fun
why not
It plays like summit (repetitive) but with more hurdles and unengaging gimmicks
Yes blue armour is bonus armour
1:30 am here.
woo....
Is there any latest news on Heartland?
Nothing recently, but as soon as we know it'll be spam-posted by people down in #1001871292330414141
i want eagle bearer so badly 😭😭
for incursion, if you have already finished the weekly, would you still have that 1% chance of getting ouroboros?
Yep, the bosses will always have a 1% chance to drop the Ouroboros.
note that it doesn't "stack" in chance, it's always 1% from them so you're rolling a 99% chance of not getting it from them every time.
ah. thanks
question. Optimisation isnt being removed in the new update on tuesday right? just saw a comment on a division 2 video saying it is
As far as i know, it isnt
Apparently you have to reach a higher recalibration of a stat before you can optimise it above it
do we know what that is then? cause all my stuff is above 10% bonuses and im really wanting to get my st elmos and others from 11% weapon damage to 15
hi chat how is yall
Optimization is NOT Expertise
the cost of materials when increasing the Expertise level is the only change I know of
Anyone faced game startup crash before? I have successfully get into the game once, and I changed the graphic settings to high, and enabled dx12. And it ask me to restart the game to apply the new settings. so I restart. And since then, the game will close itself whenever the easy anti cheat finish loading.
i dont think your pc can run those settings
It still crash after I reinstall the game and deleted all setting files
yea pretty weird, try to reopen it but stay on it, like dont go on discord while its openjing or something
Should I do the pentagon mission as a hunter or a DOD operative?
you can choose? ive never done it before
nah just choosing the outfit to run it as
im doing the mission partly for the sick screenshots inside
do it as a hunter then 😄
what do u receive when u finish pentagon mission?K
not sure honestly
also should i run stability+reload speed or crit chance on lmgs
idk
crit chance
What’s your crit chance at?
not high if i dont run crit build uhh lemme see
13.7
yo guys pentagon breach isnt working for me, its greyed out and skips the entire part where you meet sanders
im brought straight to the safehouse and starts the main part
Go crit chance
i am almost a brand new player to the game, just finished warlords of new york campaign, became level 40 and got my first shd level. what should i do go for now? i mostly play solo, because i havent found an active and beginner friendly clan yet. need advices and guidance please 😄
and should i play in dc or new york after being lvl 40 and finishing the warlords campaign?
lol me too
The world is yours for the taking. You've now reached the end-game. I can recommend taking a loot at the pinned sheets in #td2-build-advice and get acquinted with the information, as well as maybe picking out a build to get started with. Striker's is always recommended, as it's easy to put together and will get you started on Challenging/Heroic content.
Wrong pin/@
why im dealing 0 damage but like my team damage is super strong?
yea my bad lol
Post your build in build advice
ok wait
is it possible for System corruption pieces to be sold in DZ vendors?
Play in DC, I’d recommend going into countdown and putting a strikers build together, you can pick targeted gear
He can play wherever he wants to
ive never seen one
how can i get striker pieces solo easily? is there a specific wayto do it?
Check open world target loot - if there's a neighbourhood with Striker targeted loot do activities in that area
Otherwise do Summit with target loot set to Striker
thanks
Countdown on heroic target striker. You will have more pieces drop than on summit.
Did they fix the manhunt
taking a blue/purple build to Countdown Heroics will just get you kicked over and over
Is the best way to farm for emperors guard and matador named caches from countdown or not?
yes
Considering all the loot from countdown itself will be useless
also hope very hard that one of the two goes on sale at the vendor - target loot gear or system mods so you at least get filaments for proficiency
What if I'm looking for specific stats?
hence "hope"
Fr. Finally got my chest piece yesterday after 4 weeks of farming (4 - 6 CDs a day)
WHERE To collect the reward of weekly challenge
Yeah, right now you can get the striker set in the Federal Emergency Bunker mission, run it a few times, else you could run summit. Once you get a decent Striker build going, you can queue for challenging/heroic countdown, gives you a ton of gear.
guys, what I do if I'm trying to join someone and it says "unreachable server"?
It's in the Ubisoft social menu, Shift + F2 normally -> notifications.
man thanks
For points is it worth dropping down to.challenging on countdown because more likely to fail on heroic?
ISAC: Rouge agent detected.
Relatable. Last night I killed a 3 man manhunt (striker) and 2 others got me
I encountered a battle with 5 rouge agents yesterday.
Npc?
NPCs.
Those things are broken but imagine 5 nemesis' at once
It happened when I was with the other players on Heroic difficulty with 3 directives.
I haven't failed any heroic countdowns so far, but if you have a bad experience you're better of going challenging
Oh that's not too bad
I join other player's sessions with Heoric difficulty to level up faster.
Tbh there's too many low levels immediately going for the hardest countdown
Anyone wanna play division2 Ps? Im lvl 21 ish
My current SHD level is betweend 310-319.
Why though?
Personally not something I've experienced in countdown specifically - although I've had some close calls with low dps, but it's aight.
Honestly I don't know. I ended up being the ONLY one to extract at the end
2 hunters dead as a group of 4 then two went down and the other one by a hunter
Did the Countdown mission succeed?
It's tough though.
No wonder why alot of players chose the lower difficulties.
Trye
Not sure if it's more efficient for farming points to do challenging with fenris or gear mods in the background as something I pick up if they are good but scrap otherwise
The most efficient way to farm for max roll gearmods - AFAIK - is to run legendary summit
Also a few days ago I saw a level 1k+ with level 30 gear on heroic :/
He didn't buy the WoNY DLC or maybe he did it with a different character.
how u guys get brazos blueprint
Is descent just named item blueprints?
honestly cant remember
Is dark winter dz exclusive or is there a chance of it dropping elsewhere?
named item caches
DZ but i think it drops from named caches too
anyone know what happens to unused apparel event keys (i finished all items but still have keys apparently)
they turn into regular ones after a while i think
Play with what you like and suit your playing style.
new season starts on the 6th no?
yes
8.9k points. ONE emperor's guard. What do I get? Headshot damage
New season when I test a new Fal run n gun build that I have in theory.
Dz just as trash as countdown
I'm level 331, my bad.
Should I focus on leveling up since I’m only lvl 70
I have striker build and sniper build
Good morning everyone, I'm looking for someone to help/teach me how to play td2. I downloaded it last night but I'm just playing it and I don't know much about it.
What’s classed as a low level
that season gold bullet
where to see the challenge to collect the stars?
Nah you'll get there naturally
Too much power levelling and you burn out super fast
Maybe like 200
Is 208 the max points from cd on heroic and should I buy one cache at a time n open or buy 5 and open at once?
Whichever you want
Yes. and it doesnt matter , buy em when you want
literally the same rng
opening stacks is js more satisfying
Again, it doesnt matter
Then do what feels right ig
Feelings dont make items drop tho... lootcifer sacrifices do tho
can perfect gear mods drop in countdown?
Yes
Anyone know when Kenly College comes back or where to get the diamond back?
Appreciate the help @undone timber

People treated Gotham knights way too harshly
That game treated batman with some fucking respect
Loot and levelling didnt fit batman arkham knight which resulted in a weird combat in gotham knights
Any advice on “general” loot to farm that’s used in a variety of builds?
Strikers is probably the definitive bread n butter build
I recently got a few pieces. Which specialization and skills would you recommend?
4 pieces striker including bag, ceska/grupo mask (or Coyote's mask), and a ceska/grupo chest with obliterate
Crusader shield and revive hive until you get comfortable
Thanks!
Specialization is down to whatever you prefer
Any exotics I should be looking for, or named weapons?
Firewall will net you more dps gunner has a bunch of QOL bonuses those are the two ones I see used often
Saint Elmo's engine for sure
coyote mask
Named stuff definitely look out for the lefty
That’s actually the first exotic that dropped for me. 10th level normal Summit, first run.
In their element yeah all 3 are great
memento exotic backpack
Unfortunately not the case for like any other class of exotics in the game
I guess you could make a case for pistols though
picaro named holster, fox prayer named kneepad, one named glove that has damage to armor
Contractors gloves
these are just overall very good items that end up being useful in mixed builds
Also found the Vile mask. Seems a bit tricky for me since I’m still a new player.
vile is very good for some skill builds
not all of them if you focus on doing CC or status effect it's great
if you are focused on using turret and drones to harass enemies then better use something else
weapons are getting a buff in couple of days so shouldnt feel pressured to look for a meta gun now
I’ve just hit 40 a few days ago so I’m in no rush. Enjoying the different modes - nice to see there is basically no waiting for teams in Countdown.
Countdown is where most are
Which is strange because at that point what are they farming for
perfect god roll with very specific unique rolls?
But it's like where are they gonna use it
I never really see many running legendary or raids at least on Xbox
Even incursions are dying out
Is there a bug in Countdown related to hacking servers objective?
Not that I know of
I had a run the other day where I was supposed to hack three servers but when I did the 3rd one it reset so I had to start over again?
It doesn't happen everytime, but often when I have that specific objective with hacking server/preventing virus upload in administration.
When I completed the Invaded Bank Headquarters mission on hard, one of the bosses dropped the Mantis but I deconstructed it because I already have two of the same weapon.
Conflict caches drop emperors guard??
i encountered that earlier, apparently it happens when the server shits itself
'Expertise doesn't make a difference' erm...yes it does they have same build except minus one red add one blue and also expertise 19 on their smg that's the ONLY difference other than that I have slightly better expertise than them and STILL got shredded
Kneepad dz is just a war zone
Can't even switch server
go darkzone
searching someone for bunker heroic 4 directives mission
Did that didn't work
idk.
Haha, okay. Thanks for confirming! 🙂
Hope Everyone's Having A Great Day Gaming 😀 😊 😄
I Have Been Playing The Division 2 and The Expansion for 4 years In My Pc . Now i Want to Play it in My PlayStation 5. So Can I continue the game progress from where is stopped In PC and Start It From PS5? Can Somebody Help.
I have been trying trying to contact Ubisoft for 2 weeks still i got no Replies.
Thank you
I am close to 100% certain that you cannot carry progress between platforms
@undone timber Heyo, did you have any Xbox raiding contacts? Looking to do my first raid
What’s the name of the soundtrack in the recruiter mission
I love it , perfect division soundtrack
dragov promise catch 22 city hall seige are easy ones
not getting any bites in lfg but anyone interested in assisting with WONY campaign got dragov remaining
@opal radish nice 5.11 incursion 
thanks
It’s been fun, managed to fully max out my recalibration library today in order to be ready for when the changes come on Tuesday. Hope you have had a good day as well
is ninjabike bag in the normal backpacks loot pool now or still not?
Yes in the pool afaik
another day another victim for noobtrapbike bag
🤷♂️
can't wait for the 3pc striker 2 pc heartbreaker nbb 
Ninjabike-bag is something of a "newbie trap" item as it actively makes pretty much all builds worse, whilst seeming to be quite strong.
That may change after Project Resolve though, watch this space.
i want pulse immunity on my umbra...seem pretty straitforward
No one says you have to stop using a build, just be aware that any build currently made using ninja-bag is going to be kinda naff.
whats the point in not getting the set bonus for either of them?
Earning the favor of the YouTube algorithm
Anyone got any tips on trying to get wraith hunter to spawn?
pray
😂😂
You are 100% saluting the flatpole after 21:00 and before 05:00 ingame time, right?
Yes
Shooting the lights out, standing in the right spot, all that stuff?
i remember it being quite fiddly back when I did it, the angle you have to stand at for the salute is quite narrow.
and sometimes you have to salute a few times in a row.
Yeah we have been trying every angle we can get lol
Hmm, no side-missions or other activities in the immediate area?
Nope
Outside of that I got nada.
Haha okay thanks anyway lol
glitched?
Does st elmo gun drop in exotic crates if i dont already have a copy
Yes
If you guys don’t get it to work, I can spawn them for you. Couple of friends had the same problem and I was the lucky one to spawn them lol
Okay lol
are any directives/global event on?
No not that I’m aware of
Give your free time to rngesus
wanna know something you didnt want to know? the tac vector sbr 9mm has '.45 ACP' on the side of the gun
immersion lost, im out
Is the chameleon any good?
once you hit all your body shots yeah, get them headshots and keep the buff rolling and its pretty darn good
it frees up 30% crit chance if you're on point with headshots to have uptime on the crit buff so you can be more liberal with chd on your gear
i feel it lacks some range however, after all it is a vector
hmmm gotcha, it’s just I’m probably gonna get into td2, I’ve been milking td1 for long enough, just trying to setup goals to work towards
Would it be a good combo for the Tardegrade exotic and chameleon?
builds are so easy to make with targeted loot, you'll have fun getting everything and playing build-an-agent
Siiiick, how long does it take to get to endgame? If I say have the level boost from warlord dlc?
25 hours if you put your nose to it and skip world tiers after you beat the main lvl 30 campaign
im sure there's a speed runner that's gonna chime in but i think 25 hours with directed effort is reasonable
wlony is about 8-10 hours for the missions if you take your time with it, you could get it done in 2-3 hours if your nyoomin
Damn, manageable, I just hope it’s easy to get going, like I remember td1 was a bit painful to get everything unlocked
its a GREAT story and i would not recommend skipping it especially if you're coming from td1
my brother, we do
warlords has you chase his ass down finally
i wont spoil anything else
I do yes
God I wish there was a open all button for the apperal keys
Haven't played since WoNY season 1, thinking about starting a new agent from the beginning and just going. Think it will be a fun adventure to re-do everything.
When does the rebalance update come out?
There's a livestream for it in about 12 hours, but the actual update is scheduled for the 6th.
Haven’t played for like 6 months and wanna get back into it and just found out the rebalance is happening
Isnt it on monday?
The livestream's local time is listed over in #news-and-announcements and the update's date should be too.
11:30 pm woo gonna be asleep lol
Unless I'm getting the american time thing mixed up again.
being 10 hours ahead of UMT is very annoying sometimes.
Is there any point in even starting back now
Or just wait for update
And does summit still work for easy set farm?
Project Resolve is a rebalancing update for gear+guns and some features, it's less of a "you should definitely wait for this" than a "it's going to make life easier overall".
Ah never done that before added after i quit ig
Yeah but my set prolly outdated by now tho
All I remember is I got a exotic mask then idk then rest or what the builds called
Honestly the most anticipated change for me is LZ (open world map) crates are finally scaling to difficulty.
There's a fairly good chance your build is still fine, the meta shifts but things are rarely "awful" afterwards.
FAL not lagging horribly behind is great for me
I finally get to use the Shield Splinterer without people laughing at me.
Im an OD user, immune to other people opinion on the weird stuff i roll with
Also is this server just very dead bc I remember seeing tons of filled vcs now I see 0 vcs
Not exactly.
tl;dr the voice channels were removed by "the people upstairs". No one's happy about it, but 
Vcs got removed due reasons
Non-official servers still have them, but this one doesn't.
I doubt we'll ever get an explanation over the decision.
I don’t see a reason for it tbh
wasnt a vague statment about toxicity?
If ur that hurt by it just leave the call lmao
i wasnt here when it happened
It wasn't told to anyone before it happened, it just did.
To be 100% clear: us mods had no issue with them.
Not meant to kill off another part of an already dying game
game aint dying
Okay steady on now doom-and-gloom
Cuz vcs were always filled was fun to hop in and run shit
we prob get 15 people everyday who are either coming back or just got it from a sale
bird is right, and I can back that up by the amount of people that join daily.
How many daily users on td2?
No one here sees how the sausage is made, so to speak.
I just presumed it was still steadily dying
3 games actively in development (and one just starting) in the franchise doesn't exactly scream "dying" to me.
Didn’t say the franchise was dying td2 specifically
Nope we still have an expansion planned and at least 2 seasons of content on the way
ubi hides the numbers
A massive rebalance, yeah a dlc and multiple seasons doesn't say "dying" either.
most of players are on ubi or epic, since game was a late release on steam so all numbers are just guesswork
The player base is still very big
Okay like I said I presumed it was still steadily dying like it was before
Few months back
everyone is purely working by feeling
You've been listening to youtubers haven't you.
State of the discord and dz..?
Div 2 content creators strike again
This discord is still pretty active as well as the community run one
Running into same 3 players in dz and discord dying messages getting longer
the clickbaiters that populate most of div2's youtube "family" like to jump on whatever trend and work it into the ground.
Think of it like if destiny didn't have a couple of good youtubers around. We have like what, 3 that are okay?
And the DZ is just your servers probably
Like I said I’m talking abt a few months ago
So if all has changed now I have no idea
Hopefully it has
It wasn't a thing at that point either, what you might be referring to is when there were some fairly persistent crash issues that were hitting quite a few people. and stories about it started to enter the clickbait cycle.
Since every copy of the game has to run through ubi anyway, the player-base listed on other services looks a lot smaller from the outside.
Well I mean like@I said dz was dead same players all the time friends had same issue, discord was dying as well I don’t wanna get into a tiff about it so I’ll just leave it at that
The DZ works off your locality, so yeah you'll see the same people.
A VPN works wonders if you want to meet new friends.
That is where the majority of the game's focus is, PvE.
I have no problem with seeing the same 100 people over and over tho
What is there to do in pve when you get all your sets tho lmao
the fact that a full group of 8 in Countdown collects in about 10 seconds (not an exaggeration) even in my backwoods area of the world shows that it's quite popular.
Commendations
Also experimenting
Always another build to make
div2 is a Marathon game. Is your Recal Library full, is your Expertise level at max? Commendations yeah. Etc, etc.
I understand sh farming for a nice big number
DZ tries to force you into populated servers so that might happen
no marathon is a bungie game, AI really needs some tunning
t'was just a joke
Wasn't that already cancelled?
Even in div1 getting classified sets was a marathon haha
I mean it's bungie, I'm a des2 vet. I just assume it's been cancelled.
well older marathons are still out there, not sure about the new one
It was? Lmaoooooooo
I heard about that initial trailer then never anything since
battle.net days, woo!
All my gear is useless, woo!
Really makes you appreciate div2's stuff staying relevant.
😭
i love when people think gear sunsetting is still a thing
I mean think about it, I could take pieces I farmed out in 2020 for an FMJ build and complete Heroic content today.
i'm not a massive bungie simp but there are other things to complain about
Did they un-sunset everything that they had already done?
¯_(ツ)_/¯
nah just no new info about new marathon
i just know they havent sunset shit after it
sucks that it happened but it hasnt happened since
^ still relevant, woo!
not cancelled just kept their mouth shut i guess
I mean considering what's been going on with Microsoft lately, I wouldn't be shocked if it's either gone or totally changed.
I mean that's not really comparable, Bungie are reworking everything, Heartlands just isn't out yet.
Knowing how Ubi's dev teams work, they just won't tell anyone stuff until it's ready to come out.
and every 3 months i hear that either bungie or ubi is shutting down completely or have gone through a complete makeover and is growing
Small tip: ignore all rumours about stuff like that. People who don't know what they're talking about hear small stuff then try and be smart.
True that
well kinda my point, we have no oficial word on marathon either, so we have to wait on official word since people say the same about ubi games, lots of people are questioning if beyond good and evil 2 is happening again
Since the creative director for bge2 died out of nowhere last year, they may be taking some time to work on it.
Understandable.
but more related to div2: Resolve is coming out, we're getting more seasons, and a DLC is on the way. That's what matters.
Anyone know why I can’t equip the 3C glasses from the electric bundle?
will still complain about vindicator nerf and gloves tho
Idk why they felt the need to nerf vindicator tbh
It was already mid
Any word on whether recruiter outfit is going to be back in the shop? Or did they initially type Feb 16 instead of Jan 16?
I don't think there's been an official word about it yet, but on the 5th there's a livestream so I wouldn't be too shocked if they mention the situation in there.
Sort of insane that this thing they wanted to make money off of is sold for a shorter window than they advertised
I'm sure it wasn't intentional.
MSV (the devs) are known for keeping things incredibly close to their chest when they're unsure, so this silence isn't exactly ground-breaking.
e.g. WONY's trailer dropped less than 2 months before the DLC did.
and it's not nice when something you said becomes untrue due superior meddling
Word is there was a miscommunication and it was intended to rotate out by Jan 16
It's important to remember that people work at the devs. People who report to other people above them.
I mean knowing modern games, it's even possible that some sort of technical issue removed it early, or a licencing fee.
actually a similar thing happened in pd2 where they removed an outfit, and that was due to the actions of the designer.
That was not fun
I did like the look of that one, but it was 100% understandable that they ripped it out.
and mods do exist if you reallllly wanted it back.
It did look neat
Where is it 
You still haven't done one?
Done it yesterday I meant where is the video 
Oh you did do it congrats
5.11 supremacy
I got carried was 5.11 healer 
Oh god😭
Got carried by 3 5.11 dps 
how was the bosses
Thnx @timber hatch @austere void for the carry especially dod for giving me a second Oreo I am grateful for it after farming for months
And toasty ofc how can I forget
what third attribute are you going for on the second ouro?
Dttoc ofc
Yeah
i put rate of fire on my second one. just cuz i didnt want dta or anything. but you can use ouro with swap speed as the third attribute and still wreck
I have gotten exactly one with that attribute
its very not necessary. but whatev
with the right build i can get the rof to 2152
its useless tho
Hit 40 and working on building a striker set. I have the pieces but what should I be farming for first and where is the best to go?
Countdown is the place to be for farming
Farm the striker pieces first then work on the chest/mask
yea i have the striker pieces but want to farm for weapon chest/ mask
is coutdown efficient solo?
No
No
Set to challenging and matchmake
okay I am assuming lots of people farm that
is Summit target loot for mask / weapon poor choice?
Countdown is much more efficient
hmm okay I will need to try that out then
Umbra?
yeah
can i play summit on normal to unlock as many floors as possible and then revisit them and change to any difficulty?
nvm, I was listening to some youtuber explaining summit and the way he explains it, it's like you can choose any floor to start with between your checkpoint and 1. He says play farm floor 10, but fails to explain that you have to reset to 1 and get to 10 and don't go beyond if you want to just farm that floor.
hi... i got a problem in division 2 ... i cant start any secret mission.. when i'm at the entrance ... i have to press "F" to scan the entrance ... the "F" icon fills up... but then nothing happens ... any hints for this problem ? -- Additional infos: Level: 17, SHD: 10, First Secret Mission (near the White House) is accomplished .
Google and youtube got no hints to this problem. Relogging does not change the issue
@median willow It was such a long time I did the classified assignments but aren't they periodical? I.e. you can only do one per week or similar, or is my memory failing (or both)? 😄
are these the classifieds?
I suspect so, isn't the first one close to the white house
yeah it is. theres 2 about 400 to 900 metres from the white house
Hey, I just read that you can only do the first assignment below level 30. For the rest you have to be 30+
AH thx for the advice ... but why is there no hint in the game ? ... yes these are the 8 classifieds which come with the year 1 Edition
secret for a reason, gotta look for the doors. normally you can find them pretty quick if you scan around for 2-5 minutes
Alredy found the doors to 3 of them ... but i can't enter cause of the described behaviour above in the caht
But when the only could done above lvl 30 und when only one all three days ... then my problem is hopefully solved 🙂
I tried to find info on this but do we know the size of the brooklyn dlc ? Doubt it's gonna be brooklyn in it's entirety
We dont know.
Okay thanks
why is it so hard to find groups in this game
[3:29 AM]
thats why the player count is super low because its impossible to do any of this new content
i laughed when i saw what time he was asking, knowing most are either at work, asleep or eating
you know what would be great
if mods for skills counted for skill expertise
when donating them
hi dear chat wassap
u got ur st elmos yet?
they do if you turn them into printer filament... 3k pf for proficient item
might be a translation issue cause in the english version of the game there's no such thing as killer of kings.
you might either be referring to "bullet king" or "kingbreaker"
yyea
kingbreaker, premium assault rifle
Heartbreaker is outclassed but it's still usable
heatrbreaker is a build?
Yes, it's in the build sheet
absolutely love queuing for a countdown, getting and invite and then it's actually just me in the group, alone, being a leader
That feeling is so relatable
Tfw I join an incursion and they say they already have a healer
But the healer is running some crazy shit like hard wired

What's that?
a protection obtanaible by the summit
are you talking about the summit exotic chest?
yse.
rip, and a loot chest crash
i love going countdown 10 times and not getting godroll ceska chest and waste half of my day and start to question my existence 
saaameee. swear I need 10 pieces of ceska for one chest to drop 
i love when my inventory is full and when i open chest it gives me 4 rainbow and i have like 20 ceska in the other gear categories
me when the music wont play 😭😭😭
One time my buddy had someone try to heal with an all yellow strikers set on IH
Called it a hybrid build
was it the strongest build in the world
It was a build in the world that’s for sure
heh ah thats a good one
I watched it live no need 
oh that was gearlock on the team? nice
Wut whose stream?
is anyone of you down to get me a few lvls higher?
What project resolve changes are yall most looking forward to, besides expertise cost
is st elmo an assault rifle?.
its in the AR class yeah
and if i put heroic instead of challenging in countdown mode, do i have more chance to get it
(of course w targeting loot AR)
like im just asking, if i put heroic, is more loot dropping?
All exotics 3rd attribute rerollable
The tinkering menu that I can access anywhere
Partial optimisation cost reduction
the buffs into a bunch of ARs like rpm and mag size lol that and the expertise changes
Oh and bighorn buff
better loot and more exotics drop on heroic yeah
And mantis buff
Bighorn is getting a buff????
10% buff plus stacks faster
Very nice, I might use it in PvP again
It's the same headshot damage you'd get at 50 stacks but it's now just up to 25
im a little bummed out that the behind you talent will only be for rifles and mmrs
yeah it seems like a not that great talent now
I think if ur not running determined
It's ur best bet
Countdown or descent for named items?
So basically same damage but quicker to get the stack to max
Descent if you want the blueprints for them
Yea plus it's 10% damage buff
I'm so bad at it though 💀
That's great, it's still IIRC 200% HSD and that is scary
If you just want the named items themselves countdown then
Hmm ok
Countdown all the way
With descent you need to really grind nemesis and pray that it gives you a reconstructed cache
Which doesn't happen always
i hate descent. its not that its not fun to play. its the time requirement to get far enough to receive rewards
but i think theyve streamlined that now
with the coming update
Yea I have no motivation to play it
But you can get to nemesis faster next season
But yea I still don't care for runs after nemesis
BRO I DROPPED CAPACITATOR FIRST TRY IN COUTNDOWN
the biggest reason i dont play it much is because i always get terrible weapon and skill choices when i first go in. so then i have to exit descent and try again and it takes forevveerr
man why its not st elmo 😭
keep at it. they drop. i have too many of them
Do we know what they'll change?
Is expertise just shd level?
nope
there were no details if i recall correctly
So what’s expertise
sigh. its a long story
Proficiency is gained from using or donating items. As each item becomes proficient it increases your expertise level.
Expertise level determines how many upgrades you can put on any proficient item.
1 expertise = 1 % upgrade.
Next season max expertise will be 25%.
Think of it as end game leveling
I wouldn't worry about upgrades for a long while, it doesnt change a lot outside of pvp and it is very expensive even with the upcoming reduction in costs
from what I've experienced from DZ pvp. Ping is the A game
where do i go to upgrade it?
Expertise bench. Its attached to the recal bench
If I don't get a super 90 or something I can't be bothered
I'm sitting at 330 NSA credits I just wanna get my vindicator and get out
i dont even want vindicator
not gonna get it until it eventually makes it to general loot
I just want it for the sake of having it
After that it'll lay dormant in my stash for if/when they make it not shit
Pff men dark zone as a lower level with just a beginner build is sad
never getting loot out of it
Brother you gotta get a build before you go to the dark zone
I go in with my striker or my hunter fury build
Whats the official way of getting the vindicator???
Descent
Yikes
I've just opened fifteen Exotic caches I had to farm, Is this not the right route for the Ouroboros.
wait i have question
in descent mode, u gain percentage by completing level
Ouro is incursion only. No exotic crates
at 100% u fight nemesis ?
Yes
Is it manageable solo, haven't got much friends. Any infact.
Yes. You finish the loop at which you get 100% and the next loop is nemesis fight
but why hard level is like 3% and easy level is 8% ? shouldnt it be inversed
No
Gonna have to lfg
By now you can matchmake with randoms and be fine
That's sad I can't manage to find a team in matchmaking.
Did i play different TD? Why i don't see any item in my descent shop
Didn't think about that ty
Because you get to nemesis earlier at the cost of being less prepared
Hard gives you more time and currency to gear up
The easier rooms you pick, the less coins you get and you meet nemesis faster, so you may not upgrade what you need in time
Ah you'll get one sometime
If not, make an lfg post on the Xbox network
Any recommendation on weapons for a High crit Striker until I can get it ?
One more day for vanguard 🤩
nemesis aint the reward bro
Elmo/carbine 7/police m4/Famas
Tysm
can u get exotic by killing nemesis
?
Pair that with a lefty if you don't have one
Cache - yes
you dont want to get to nemesis faster 💀
Exotics are like the least attractive thing about nem
I removed my Lefty cuz I thought ouro was exo crate, I was planning to run Oruo and Famas
So keep the lefty
ok
God I hate how I can't change the skin on it.
I mean with it being possible by loop 4 I'd imagine ppl will be farming for blueprints
Yep
Perfect sledgehammer is invaluable
Especially if you pair it with bloody knuckles for bosses
Ty againn
I'd hop in myself but I'm about to crash for the night; good luck getting your ouro
Strikers is an excellent place to start yeah
Is kendras liberty worth crafting?
one thing i like about div2 is the cache opening ngl
felt a bit dry on the first oone
It's a pretty neat pistol
Especially if you don't have one it's definitely worth having at least 1 of every exotic
The feeling on div1 of opening a proficiency cache and seeing your inventory go up by two instead of 1 was the best
yup!
im gonna get to do some missions some time soon
ill think about the NYC dlc but that has some time
cant wait to try out aegis
I wish there was a cosmetic slot on the vile mask, I'd much rather run it to look like the umbras one
Changing the appearance of Exotics would be nice, I don't think we've ever been told why it's not in the game.
how do u get the wings on level?
If it's what I think you mean, that's the "Shepard Rank", it's basically a special level that you get when you help people out by joining their team.
it caps out at Lvl 25, and gives you a patch and pretty much nothing else.
you know when it says "endorse player", that's the result.
Visual identity is part of a person build so you should be able to tell if someone is running an exotic by looking at their character
or something like that was said long ago regarding transmog and exotics
I've had my Memento look like a neon backpack with foreign language lettering on it for several months now.
No point being made, I just find it funny.
well we both know that was mostly due a bug since i had same issue with survivalist backpack mod, and just passing what i remmeber the devs saying from a long time ago
i do find weird people that want to transmog weapons
make an AK look like M4 and vice versa
Nah it's all good, I did remember that being a reason but I wasn't sure if it was speculation or just community theories.
weapons I get less, although similar weapons should be able to use the same skins, that one I don't get.
but change exotics outside of PvP, sure why not.
ur joking, a elmo from an open world black tusk
rngesus is a weird dude sometimes.
just enjoy the freebie.
i did but there is no ammo box on the map
It does it automatically
Look on the bottom left. It’ll say ammo, grenades, etc refilled. Same for safe houses.
on the bottom left i have exclamation marks giving me notifs n stuff
u think 899 exotic components is enough for tu20
Since costs are being halved, that may be enough for everyone in this server.
hoardin
whys gear farming so easy now
DJ out there going to drive up the cost of exotics.
I hope you're happy with inflation.
It disappears after a bit, but it happens
just got 3 of drops i wanted in 2 runs
i remember farming days and not getting anthing lol
there are good days and there are bad days
dont think about it
RNG cant sabotage you if your mind is empty
same trick to get what you want from any gacha
good thing i have zero thoughts always
the Hyena's drank all the petrol, sorry.
back in my day we just have to drive up to a gas station and press E
whats the best way to get the dark winter?
dark zone, named item caches, reconstructed caches
^+Legacy Season caches, manhunt boss targets, the countdown vendor if it cycles in there.
tl;dr I love the gun but there's better options for whatever build you're thinking of, and they aren't DZ locked.
just @ you in builds thats what its going with
ATV 
Warhound 
arma 3 strider 
i was invited to a clan
how do i accept it? 😭
nvm i need to recruit that one guy it says, i think
Bought a helmet for 140 premium credits from ages ago and it isn't showing up??
Care less
mask
Nothing there
I just got the Manhunt weapon skin but now it isn't in weapon skins either, maybe store is bugged/lagging or something
Guys I found a xp glitch
Regarding the manhunt interactions with all the missing people , idk if it’s discovered tho

what is manhunt
Oh hi lol , ok so reset the manhunt after exiting recruiter mission and it’ll show all missing people interactions again , put heroic so 200k xp for each interaction , reset manhunt then go to and exit recruiter mission for interactions again
The recruiter manhunt going on on right now
is it good?
I liked the final mission , very plot twisty
hold on, where can i do all that? im kinda new to div 2
ive got Warlords of new york but its not letting me go to new york like i got to the pliot and everything and its still asking me to buy the DLC
is it because the code i bought was for Ubi connect and not steam
because the game says i do own the DLC
@marsh crystal does it also work when being in a group? like if you f.e. inv me and do it for me (cuz i cant seem to find manhunts on my map lol)
I got some apparel in a cache that's not showing up. I restarted the game and it's still not there. Any ideas?
It's showing in the store as "owned" but I can't find it in the apparel page.
im having the same issue but with Warlords of new york and the year 1 stuff
Unmm idk , do you have warlords of New York???
Also are you on ps
Nope, on PC
lmao
You need the dlc for it
i should really get the dlc yea
You should , it’s worth it
where to see the patch ? where the weapons will receive a buff yk
it says i have TD2 like 2 vers of it
So do I need to download the Ubisoft connect version of the division 2. Just so I can access warlords of New York?
Because on the steam version it says I own it but it won't let me access it
#news-and-announcements had previous pts patchnotes
ty
It’s fun tho
Yea almost never find anyone with MM, if I wanna play with randoms I just make my group public and call for backup and it basically always fills though
im lvl 8 tho, not sure if people wanna join that
as it doesnt give them a lot
how can i make my group public tho and call for help?
Escape -> Social (G)
G just calls for backup, to make group public you gotta click the bar at the top above your name, and it will give you privacy options
ohhh okok lemme try it out one sec
i can help u if u want
Explain why the fk the game doesn't RESUME when it crashes every 30 seconds in countdown but then it DOES when not in countdown
alright, ping me
Imagine having a game STILL crash 2 years after the update
whats the "pending shepherd vote" notification?
cant seem to find it in the socials tab
go to socials and click on the other group members, there you can give a commendation
but it's not really anything important
Because countdown doesnt have an option to join midgame. On to the next...
i treid that but oculdnt find anything
Don't know how else to put it sry
St elmo can be farmed right?
Yes it can. Got mine from countdown
Why can't it be recalibrated?
found it :p
i just didnt know what "endorse" meant
Because you can't recalibrate exotics, you can reroll some weapons now and then all of them in the next update
Only will reroll the exotic weapons 3rd attribute
Only some, the rest on Tuesday
ok, I thought I was going mental by getting magazine size on my backfire three times in a row
Ouro, sacrum, elmo's, iron lung I feel like I missed something
How do i get The Recuiter Outfit? I can't find it in the store.
Currently removed from the store, we don't know why, might be talked about in the livestream that's happening on the 5th.
Ok, thank you.
guys im actually new in warlords,,,, is there an dz in warlord of new york?
Nope
thats it?
new missions
well they effed up the DZ in DC so probably for the best
what do you prefer?
Plus Year 1/2 stuff
is season vendor the only place to get Legacy Season Caches?
okay is there any pvp in warlords?
nope
damn
but if you want to pvp, most player base is at level 40 which requires the DLC
yeah i have it
but want to play some pvp
but i cant play with my warlords character in dc?
You have the very dead PVP multiplayer thing or Dark zone
Wait, I thought the warlords character is the same as your DC character
nooo
Shared inventory and all that
after finishing the DLC you have access to both DC and NY
oh but i first have to finish the dlc
Once you finish WONY you have access to everything, both DC and NY
yes
where do i find the skill points tree?
i looked everywhere but i cant seem to find it
the stuff that stays permanently
The quartermaster at the white house is what you mean I think
first dude on the left when entering
Has perks (perma unlocks) and access to the specializations one spot further to the right
thanks!!
RIghto
No no, on the left.
ill-
too cheap 
Thank you, thank you.
I'll be here all week, try the beyond veal.
chat is it better to farm coyote mask or st elmo?
hi sir wsp
no
I have no idea what any of that means, but Coyotes and Elmos are both worth farming for. Just hit up TL (Targeted Loot) on chall/heroic countdown (CD) and buy the exotic caches from the CD vendor every 2-3 runs.
Not a Sir, but you're welcome.
Is summit still the best shd farm?
Nope!
current "best" SHD farm is actually fairly simple:
LZ (open world map) activities/cp/bounties on Chall/Heroic +Directives.
Ah mad
the bonus is that every CP you complete, you get a free blueprint until you have them all. Weapon mods are the main thing that they drop.
what do they drop once you have them all?
Been slaving countdown for 5 hours rn for momento
Chall/heroic w/tl: backpack, buying caches when you can? If so you're weighing the RNG in your favour as much as can be done.
@alpine zephyr Literally just what they dropped outside of those before, so various rare-ish stuff and occasionally a free Exo Component.
awesome
what is LZ
An archaic name for the open world map.
landing/loading zone
thanks
lz = light zone. Like, not the dark zone.
yes its corny.
It's only called that when you use the demo spec's grenade launcher on enemies.
lol
Lz is a carryover term from div 1 days basically
there is so much to figure out in div2 it feels like
i think ill be going for a full sniper guy in the little far future once i got "everything" together
it's very rewarding when you finally master sniping
using determined doesnt count as "mastering"
99% of people imply it
i've been a vehement non-determined runner
🙏
can confirm he doesn't use determined
but i don't have any agenda against determined, if it makes them faster go do it
glad someone other than me doesnt use determined
but i don't run it
I don't use determined either
waking up at 6 tmr but idc td2 exotic farm better than sleep 🙏🤑
Hi, im at 95% in MH but im stuck in mel arnold it’s bugged for me , can anyone help me please
MH?
Manhunt
ioh
He says meet Mel Arnold, and I don't want to do it again. It's a waste of time
ah.
the gunplay feels very good so i been getting plenty of good hits so far!
glad to hear, there are even more tricks you can employ to make sniping even more efficient
ill be getting nyc tomorrow prolly (or in 2 days)
hope everything with steam goes fine as ive seen a few ppl here already who complained about not being able to access nyc despite having it
i dunno, we'll see
I have absolutely 0 idea about perks or any tricks yet but i think/hope that ill get to know them all sooner or later by playing and asking stuff here
just take your time, you'll probably naturally discover it, or you can ask here
like taking off your sniper scope lets you shoot faster is a very obscure trick
but taking it off makes aiming harder no?
you can get used to it
i hated the marksman rifle's aim sight in div1 already tbh
because the default crosshair turns red if you aim over an enemy, so it's both easier and harder
yup its like in div1 basically
and if you're being actively fired at, that extra time you saved will save your life
Also true yeah
Ill just have to see and experience myself, practice and get used to things
besides that it's just minmaxing your build
currently lvl 19 so im slooowly getting there
gl and have fun
thanks :)
whoever told me oh you just cant find a group because its 2am well its the middle of the day and i still cant find a group sooo
you already said that in offtopic
It's 23:56 here :))
If you're trying matchmaking it will probably never work, I got people almost every time even while leveling when using Call For Backup and open group
whoever told me oh you just cant find a group because its 2am well its the middle of the day and i still cant find a group sooo
i get that but thats stupid why do i need to call for backup when the matchmaking sytem exists
what are you trying to matchmake for?
new copy pasta just dropped

it really depends what youre doing yeah'
weekly missons
thats prolly why
If everrything made logical sense in TD2 it wouldnt be TD2
because some activities have no living being on earth running them
unless theyre the legendary ones
i want to get back into this game but this is a turn off for sure
well nobody wants to play a mission with fuck all reward
calling for backup calls anyone in regardless of activity
what difficulty?
hard because i dont have time for heroic
bingo
Heroic is ez tho...
no one plays hard lol
that's the problem
atleast challenging, even then i doubt youll get anyone
you have to think that everyone is strong enough to run the hardest or rewarding stuff
imagine your argument being yeah you cant find people because your trying to do a lower level diffuculty because my build isnt perfected.
because most players are already there
It's not an argument, he's just telling you the reason
for missions noone runs anything less than heroic (maybe except for main manhunt missions)
Heroic doesn't need a perfect build...
you do not need a perfected build to play heroic. and its not an argument its literally just a fact that most lv40 people dont play hard.
it's just a fact, and we gave you an alternative: call for backup
most poeple have been active long enough to be there, kinda like how new players doing the campaign struggle to mathcmake so they have to use call fo backup
GB + HH + Specialization MMR = 
what nyc?
ohhhhh wony?
w dlc
