This game is so realistic that the black tusk didn't just hack the SHD servers but the real servers too.

[lunar hare]

lmaoo

[random quest]

Guess we should get that mobile shd server at home

[full zinc]

1:29 for the exo caches are actually better odds than if you were targeting specific gear types, which is closer to 1:60 when you factor in brands/gear/named.

with caches you either get an exo you want, or a component youll need later

[tropic lava]

why did i get kicked out of the game with a network error and immediately slapped with a queue!?

[kind veldt]

i mean it's kinda self explanatory, server had connection issues so you are now in queue to join

[full zinc]

known issue. some agents are getting delta errors, cause unknown atm

[random quest]

But... you get a 1:29 roll every 30+ minutes vs 1:60 roll every time TL drops lmao

[full zinc]

cd has the target loot on top of the guaranteed cache

[random quest]

CD doesn't have the same exotic drop rate - otherwise you would swim in exotics

[full zinc]

guaranteed cache. you could go a long time in other modes and not get an exo... regardless of stated rate. rng is a b

[random quest]

I make my recommendation based on stated facts. There will always be outliers, that's how binomial distribution works with rng

[full zinc]

anyways its good too mix up farming methods

[lapis junco]

🤓

[full zinc]

😆

[random quest]

Not really mixing it up if everyone is just recommending countdown - I offer a valid reason not to go there, with Lincoln, CP4/Open world, Summit.

[random quest]

Das me

[full zinc]

nah i could care less about the drop chances. cd is the solid farm, especially if new. other methods are fine but you kinda got to wait for the tl to be right. summit is next best option, but it doesnt have any guarantee.

cd is guaranteed exo. either you get what you want, or get what you need

[random quest]

To each their own, but this is not mixing it up. This is "go countdown".
I'm trying to mix it up - and with good arguments behind to say it's pretty good aswell.
In any case, take this 🍫

[lapis junco]

DZ cache best farm play PVP

[random quest]

We call it meta and make a YouTube video ez

[rose glade]

What's up with DH first doors not opening after clearing the ads?

[kind veldt]

maybe it detected your adblocker jk

[azure lintel]

I wish Descent would detect that I don't ever want to use any firefly or remote pulse, and that nobody else does.

I'm thinking the starting skill choices are not RNG and are in fact weighted. 30 restarts, a firefly or remote pulse has appeared in the starting choices 30 times

yeah im out, this is straight up stupid 45 times now

[tender wave]

eh, blinder firefly isn't the worst option for nemesis, gives you a nice window to do some damage, and if they use it against you the duration is so short it's not a problem

[azure lintel]

thats a might as well thing if youre already at nemesis and didnt have choices. but if youre trying to build around a skill you need it to start because theres a pretty good chance youre gonna make it to mid twenties without ever seeing it pop up in the list

ive changed my mind about the talent rotations they really arent that bad, but the weapon and skill choices should be able to be picked (if even at a cost) or reduce the pool depending on those talents

ive done 3 mid 30s solo runs this week with the last rotation which was GG for shotguns, all 3 runs i never saw an upgraded m870 by the time i died. you will have a build basically complete by the 20s, so talents arent that big of a deal ,but NEVER having a weapon upgrade is just stupid for the amount of time it takes you to get to those levels

for perspective, a grey to a blue weapon by around level 30 is worth almost 10 levels of red cores so its a pretty big deal

[lapis junco]

did you pay forr the next room in the raid?

[kind veldt]

raids resets on tuesdays like most things right?

[tender wave]

yup

[bronze cosmos]

What should I farm for at lvl 30

[azure lintel]

10 more levels?

[bronze cosmos]

I don’t have the dlc

[azure lintel]

Oh apologies. I don't have a direct answer to your question, and this might be a non-answer, but I'm guessing if you played 1-30 you sunk over 20 hours in the game, but buying WONY will really be worth it to get the full experience.

that is to say those 20 hours should hopefully have let you decide if you liked the game or not

[bronze cosmos]

So I should buy the dlc

[azure lintel]

I would highly recommend it, if about 9 dollars right now

*it's about

more gear, the new york map, 3+ gamemodes you dont even have access to currently, its good times

[real creek]

Most of the player base is playing the DLC and it's VERY worth it.

[torpid tendon]

Help, I'm stuck at floor 84 in the summit!

[latent bridge]

if you like lore then dlc its good choise, if you just like to fight and create sets I think its ok with 30lvl too

[latent bridge]

why more gear, gear is the same, no?

same sets

[kind veldt]

dont think so

[real creek]

Tons of items/sets/brands are DLC only

[kind veldt]

everything that came after WONY pretty much

[azure lintel]

what he said

[latent bridge]

tons? ajaj which once?

I see same sets playing 30 char

[kind veldt]

striker, system corruption, eclipse protocol, heartbreaker, hotshot, cavalier and so on

[latent bridge]

you sure that they are only 40lvl?

[real creek]

They are DLC

You don't have the DLC you don't have them, nothing about being 40

[latent bridge]

how you know that

[real creek]

Because it's the way it is?

Are you saying these aren't DLC sets? That everyone gets all the sets DLC or not at lvl 30 if they don't own them?

[latent bridge]

if striker is only level 40 ajaj dawmn I wanna be level 30 hate strikers

xd

[torpid tendon]

Man, why do the most weird things always happen to me

[latent bridge]

I ask you why you think that they are only dlc

[torpid tendon]

I can't advance to floor 85

[real creek]

Well you can head the the spread sheet pinned in the #td2-build-advice channel and see the items marked as DLC.

[kind veldt]

because they came with the expansion

[real creek]

This isn't a "think" thing, they ARE.

[latent bridge]

updates comes to the game not the only for exp I think

[kind veldt]

descent is for lv30 also, second raid and a couple others

[latent bridge]

well, I dont see any facts from your side, just suggestions

[latent bridge]

why? whats wrong?

[latent bridge]

yeah true

[real creek]

Well you don't have any facts? Are you on a non DLC account?

[torpid tendon]

I couldn't advance, I died to rogues and spawned behind a locked door

[latent bridge]

ajaj it happened to me once well I think it was control point before, right? just begin from that stage I thgink

[torpid tendon]

Even tried to ""respawn"" using grenades

[civic ridge]

a wild delta 3 reappears

[torpid tendon]

Ah man, yk what? I'm just alt+f4ing

[latent bridge]

for the ult measure, return to main menu, can you? sammit 1st floor

I had only 1 delta today or 2...

[full zinc]

can always goto lobby and take the elevator back up

[kind veldt]

bit random but raid tomorrow?

[mystic lintel]

Do people use the match making system in d2 seem i cant ever find a group when i que up

[kind veldt]

depends on what activity

[mystic lintel]

been trying to matchmake the countdown

[kind veldt]

on challenging?

[mystic lintel]

i tried on challenging and heroic just to see if it made a difference

[kind veldt]

on challenging is very active, absurdly so

[mystic lintel]

hmm maybe my setting are stopping me from getting matches

[cobalt forge]

I finally made it to shd lvl 250

[real creek]

Yeah.

[frank cloak]

been having issues queueing countdown, if i restart the game it usually works after that

[torpid tendon]

Dunno, where can I send videos here? I just caught chainsaw boi and sledgehammer boi fighting each other on camera. Place your bets lol.

[random quest]

Heroic on PC is also active, I never have any issue finding a group, near instantly. I've heard it's a bit different for console with most being on challenging

[kind veldt]

i just stick to challenging and know it's fast

[mystic lintel]

i play on pc ik i can solo challenging stuff so thats what i do most my stuff on mostly solo here no clan or anything 90% solo for this game lol

[wise basalt]

wtf is up with loot drops? Just ran liberty for habsburg, only got 2 drops. Is this another bug from the patch we just got? Also seeing more freaking rainbow drops too. smh

[kind veldt]

nope

you can blame many things on the last patch, this one isnt one of them

[azure lintel]

finally got the skills i wanted after way too many restarts, skill are incredibly strong with this talent pool. sniper turret 1 shots everything even HVTs. My striker drone killed the Nemesis in maybe 4 seconds, but he hacked my sniper turret and even after returning to lobby its still hacked, so im just waiting for it to go on cooldown (cant break it manually when its hacked). so if you get lucky with your skill choices definitely give it a try in descent

[bronze cosmos]

What do I farm for since I’m level 30 rn what’s the good gear for level 30

Also can I get the coyote mask at level 30 or do I need to be level 40

[warm minnow]

40

[celest light]

Do you own WONY? Because if you do then your goal is to hit 40 and World Tier 5

[lunar hare]

He doesn't own WoNY

[bronze sluice]

I wanted to ask yall what you thought of my setup but I can't post imgs ;w;

how would one obtain img perms?

[undone timber]

Go to #td2-build-advice

[bronze sluice]

can I post imgs there?

[undone timber]

Yes

[shy musk]

friendship ended with strikers

negotiators my beloved

[jolly talon]

morning agents

[bronze cosmos]

I don’t and I’ve hit world tier 5

[hybrid ore]

Once you start WONY, any gear except for Exotics will become worthless.
Level 40 gear will be your new standard once you finish the mode.

[torpid plume]

Fastest way to disorient as many enemies as possible?

[hybrid ore]

Hunters Fury and play to its strengths; aka play close.

Just messing around True Sons in the LZ (open world map) got me to rank 10 without even realising it.

[lunar hare]

Im glad Delta didn't get me when I was doing a mission ot I would've uninstalled the game til they fixed that.

[rose lintel]

omg the disconnecting problem is so insane since last update

[jolly talon]

We know 😛

[lunar hare]

yay! I finally completed Tidal Basin solo and without dying a single time lmao

[fluid meadow]

Leggie?

[lunar hare]

Heroic, I'm still scared to run legendary

and unlocked that cool gold t-rex trophy

[inner elbow]

Equip CC build with Creeping Death backpack
Go into Legendary DUA
Disorient everyone in range, die and repeat

[elder mauve]

Why is servers so freaking unstable

[civic ridge]

first d3 of the day here.

[elder mauve]

I got dced at the end of the same quest TWICE

[hybrid ore]

It's a recent bug introduced with a recent patch, it's being actively worked on.

the tricky thing is that it's not hitting everyone, or even most people.

[elder mauve]

how it occurs? just randomly?

[civic ridge]

which country / server are you btw? (and ya, it seems random)

[elder mauve]

EU

connecting from cyprus tho

[civic ridge]

EU, connecting from ZA here

[elder mauve]

ZA?

[hybrid ore]

ZootopiA.

[elder mauve]

oh.

[random quest]

Zentral America /s

[civic ridge]

South africa sorry

[random quest]

I was pretty sure it was South Africa, but just woke up so piggybacked off of the memeing

[shy musk]

like me :P

i dont think ive had any kind of instability for me

[random quest]

I've had delta's, which I don't usually have (pre the patch), but the amount of delta's I've had can be counted on one hand ^^

[modest plaza]

Pre patch maybe one in a month

Now over 20 a day when I roam and not raid

[lethal sonnet]

Saw from a friends screenshot

Someone from TFR with 3k hrs hardcore character died in Challenging Pentco

😢

[hybrid ore]

my first joke was actually going to be "Zouth Africa" but I kinda love that it's actually there lol.

[hybrid ore]

I guess for once Challenging was actually challenging.

[civic ridge]

ya it's a bit of a history one and maybe late to the party. SA = Saudi Arabia so we were left with ZA for Zuid Afrika (Dutch)

[hybrid ore]

I do love to hear about the weird reasons countries pick names for stuff.
It's like how Australia managed to snag "au" before Austria, gold all the way.

[random quest]

You guys seen the meme video on how the US states where shortened?

For reference

[random quest]

Speaking off, just got two within a few minutes just standing at BOO making changes to a build lol

[lunar hare]

build was like hell naw

[random quest]

To be fair, it's the Backfire build from Aspect soooo

[shrewd dawn]

is it worth to farm today for eagle bearer?

[still temple]

honestly, not really, mine are collecting dust in stash; better go for Ouroboros in Incursion

[bold garden]

Paradise lost ? Ps4 , My id : zfariborz

[full zinc]

#lfg-td2incursion-console

[loud storm]

These random delta's are starting to get really annoying..... almost at the point to just stop playing for a bit until its fixed..... GRBP gonna get dedusted soon probably

[random quest]

I only experience them when I'm at BoO
I've had 1 in a group, 0 solo out in the world.

[left fjord]

So I only need to get 1 more Invaded missions n a stronghold and over done majority of my first weeks weeklys (don't want to do the conflict / DZ stuff)

[stuck aspen]

ffs how many time i have to get DELTAA. please do something about div 2 servers please

7 time in a row

[willow elk]

pretty positve is ubisoft connect as a whole, canèt even connect to those servers

can't**

[kind veldt]

seeing as other games of theirs are also suffering form similar issues

wouldnt be surprised

[random quest]

I did F10 and Bounty farming for 1-2 hours straight yesterday, no delta's (solo), but I stand around in BoO to tinker with builds today and have gotten 3-4 of em

While I believe it's an Ubi issue somewhat, I also think it happens when close to other players.

(Which could be netcode at the end of the day, that would be somewhat between MSV and Ubi)

[sour pebble]

Bruh I love the GPS line tries taking me out of bounds to get to an echo 🤣🤣

[halcyon radish]

they named the launcher "connect" for reason

[celest light]

Delta-3 folks really need to start collecting information and see if there's a common factor

For how wide the issue seems to be I don't even see it in their Trello board

[stark heron]

Damn I'm gonna have to wait an hour probably for night time

Killed 3 hunters, 4th one despawned cause it hit 4am

I have all the masks now to add insult to injury

[random quest]

That would be because Delta's are 99% Ubi side and it's an MSV Trello
Also important to note that they work on - and have noted - way more issues than are in the Trello

[celest light]

Good to know

[full zinc]

Ig I'm lucky as I havent had a single delta from this patch or for months before

I feel like it's a regional issue with where the servers are hosted

[random quest]

My most important observation with it is this

[inner elbow]

No deltas for me either, but I've been getting the Pc-crashing crashes like before, just not as frequent as when it was peak

[silent cedar]

havent had deltas before patch but since last patch delta after delta

and seems it kicks the whole team coz we were doing potomac and now everyone spawned in protection zones or in front of the mission

[random quest]

I get next to no delta's in solo play

[ripe rampart]

this game is so Fked 20min play 6 deltas WTF

[full zinc]

No deltas in open world/mission/summit/countdown. US east and US west are my normal servers.

Solo or matchmade*

[astral eagle]

Is there a Delta issue going on, in the DZ got Delta 3 times in a row...

[kind veldt]

all the previous 10 messages posted were about deltas

[astral eagle]

yh jus readin them now

was tryin to do the DZ projecty and boom delta

especially doing the dz drop

now I have to wait until it comes around

[sour pebble]

Anyone wanna do Anderson manhunt with me

[stark heron]

Sure ig

@sour pebble

[sour pebble]

What's ur gt

[stark heron]

Lord Mew4459

Ill just bring a coyotes striker build

[sour pebble]

Lol I'm running striker I get so close in rescuing Lewis then I get clapped from all sides

[stark heron]

One sec had to get my coyote from my other level 40

Not got a mic rn

[sour pebble]

It's chill

This game is waffling

[sour pebble]

@stark heron ty ❤️

[stark heron]

Oh I just realised this is the first manhunt I've done on challenging lmao

[sour pebble]

Lol

It was bugging me being there so I was like let's do it

Hold up I just got a god roll Doctor hunter 🤣

[torpid tendon]

So, I've just reached the 100th floor of the backrooms, is there anything I should be aware?

[astral eagle]

door closes, thats about it

[kind veldt]

hope you have a good build that is not skill based

[torpid tendon]

Wdym?

?

So.... I'm dead lol, almost got one tho.

I was expecting one, not two of them

[stark heron]

Hold up am I missing something, since when was the diamondback in the exotic cache pool

Ive never even done kenly college and I guess I'll never need to now

[stark heron]

Honestly bring the st elmos or a scorpio

The shock effect lets you cheese em

(DPS build ofc)

[torpid tendon]

I could do that, but I avoid using those weapons when I'm solo... I'm trying do do it "legit" let's put it this way lol

[stark heron]

Oh good luck then lol

Your skills are gonna be useless

[torpid tendon]

I'm running hf, killer banshee and tsunami

[stark heron]

I guess that works

That or you could run a PFE build

[torpid tendon]

I'm gonna swap to lady death idk... Killer makes no sense here

[rough fable]

Yo why tf do none of my smgs have reticles but all other weapons have them?

[solid skiff]

Guys im coming back to this game after I stopped playing in year 1, what the hell is there and how do I learn everything? I feel like am idiot lol there's so much to do

[kind veldt]

not a joke, but are you aiming with them?

[stark heron]

Theres a lot, but you approach content at your own pace

Do you have warlords of new york

Cause I was in the same boat as you, I played in year 1 and only returned 7 months ago

[kind veldt]

honestly havent heard of reticles disappearing when aiming, were you using any kind of scope?

[solid skiff]

Yes I do

I just don't understand anything there's so much diversity

[undone timber]

thats the beauty of it

[solid skiff]

Im coming from the division 1 so everything in that game is so linear and easy to get, just wanna know the new builds and shit

[undone timber]

start with a build template from the spreadsheet

[undone timber]

div2 is far more linear and easy to farm for gear

[solid skiff]

Is it? I don't mean linear like that I mean there's a lot more to do

[undone timber]

the difference is absence of classifieds and less rolls on pieces

and no talents on non chests and bags

[stark heron]

Honestly, your first order of business I'd say is getting a strikers build

Its the staple dps build

[undone timber]

strikers is an excellent starting point

[stark heron]

Change the targeted loot for The Summit to strikers battlegear

[undone timber]

better yet just farm countdown on challenging

every gearset piece you'd need in 1-2 runs

[solid skiff]

What is the summit and the countdown and all this you guys are telling me? I'm sorry I just dontnknow a thing lol

I have an endgame character though, SHD9

584K armor 286k health

[undone timber]

they're activities

speak to the pilot at the base

[solid skiff]

Ok

Thank you guys I really appreciate it

[undone timber]

[torpid tendon]

Luck wasn't enough :c

Man, this arena is really bad for agents, there's no cover at all

[undone timber]

summit 100?

[torpid tendon]

Yeah

[undone timber]

thought so

use Scorpio and shock traps its free

[kind veldt]

rush in and throw a granade on their spaw, that will make them scatter a bit and let you move into a decent position

[torpid tendon]

I tried using the decoy, but that didn't worked too lol. Even tried the scorpio... But the other just one shots me

[undone timber]

shock traps

if you can't kill them with scorpio then idk what to tell ya

[full zinc]

Yeah it's not as easy as it was when you could stay in the little room and have a free choke point.
You really need some cc, and more than just scorpio..

Have you ran it since the change?

[undone timber]

draw one out and burn him then same

[full zinc]

Draw them where?

[undone timber]

apart

[full zinc]

You're stuck in the room with them. You cant goto balcony area until they spawn or it teleports you to the middle

Go try it

[undone timber]

granted last time I ran it in a 4 stack so aggro was split but I still killed like 3

[torpid tendon]

Wait a sec

[full zinc]

It's just not as easy as it used to be. I feel like a lot of people havent run f100 since the change since summit is kinda not high on things to do

[torpid tendon]

Did you just said 3?

Is there another one after u kill the 2?

[undone timber]

it scales to team size +1

[heavy prism]

Idk just 1 shot them

[torpid tendon]

Oh, I was already losing the hope here lol

[undone timber]

it gives you a timer still before it kicks you in right

[fiery cloud]

Hey Local

[full zinc]

I've ran it a few times in matchmaking and with hazpro eclipse they were manageable... if there isnt enough dps it doesnt matter

[undone timber]

so you can probably still oxi the shit out of it

[full zinc]

Morning Saph ☕

[fiery cloud]

Time to see Ghostbusters

In imax

[undone timber]

theres another?

[full zinc]

You can prepare the area of you leave 1 agent in the room, which is what I've done in the few times I've ran it since the change. Setup shock traps and fire nade the area for sledge proc. Then foam the shit out of them... but as a solo or just all dps it's kinda rough

[heavy prism]

It's still almost the same

[undone timber]

solo I guess was always rough but scorp definitely helps

[full zinc]

No. When you could stay in the little room they were forced to come at you one at a time... now you are easily flanked with all manner of skill easily able to hit you. It's not like it used to be... sorry, not sorry

[heavy prism]

Solo you simply put on a sniper build with BTSU and 1 tap

Idk what's the difference

Sorry, skill issue

[full zinc]

I've been through it. But it isnt like before

[undone timber]

it would've made more sense to have them be in that area beforehand

room with all the fancy architecture

[torpid tendon]

Do they have infinite armour kits or smth?

[undone timber]

nah just a couple

[kind veldt]

2 at max i think

Think they also have a cooldown to not immediatly use 2 in a row but this is just guessing

[undone timber]

in div1 they could pop them consecutively that was very annoying

[kind veldt]

In div1 they definetly could do that

[full zinc]

I've recently only been through on heroic with 4 agents.
Cc can definitely get them under control as long as your team has dps to back it up

[undone timber]

and their support stations had a trillion skill power but made of glass

[opal radish]

In div1 there was no cc

There was

But that was blind sticky

[undone timber]

flashbang was insanely good

[kind veldt]

Shock turrets, fire turrets, blind sticky

But enemies played differently to those

[torpid tendon]

Got one lol

The other is so low

Dude's playing the rat now, I wish I had 1 more grenade lol

[undone timber]

swap to your concussion grenades

or your spec grenades

[torpid tendon]

I'm out

Got him with the decoy

[small spear]

emp sticky + decoy are my default 2 skills now

so good

[torpid tendon]

I go with attack drone or shield + revival hive

[rancid sphinx]

Why does NY suck so bad on bounites keys and named guys. i did wallstreet mission and it gave me 2 of three named guys when i killed 4 in mission myself. none of them dropped a key. my character is almost 5 years old and has zero riker keys.

[small spear]

you don't do them for riker keys. you do riker public executions for riker bounties which give riker keys. it's always been this way

[torpid tendon]

You could also look for keys in the sewers

[jolly talon]

I actually have quite a lot different types of keys and I have no clue what to use them for xD

[torpid tendon]

There are some white lockers which contains a random faction key inside

[small spear]

to open lockboxes corresponding to each faction in missions and open world

but you're missing out on literally nothing by not opening them

[torpid tendon]

But tbh I don't even bother, I never got anything good from them

[small spear]

exactly. so don't even bother

[torpid tendon]

I heard you could get those field analysis thing from them, but I never got any

[jolly talon]

what do they even give ? If I may ask

[torpid tendon]

Just random leveled loot ig

[jolly talon]

so basically like normal loot crates in the world?

[kind veldt]

it's just a locked chest, i think it awlays comes with gear, weapons, skill mods and targetted loot

small chance for exotic backpack that i forgot the name

[small spear]

acosta go bag

[kind veldt]

go to bag?

yeah what he said

[small spear]

which is useful, but they're like a dime a dozen

[kind veldt]

you can just get the backpack the usual drop way

[torpid tendon]

Oh, almost forgot... sorry for changing the subject, but who actually are those guys in black with bows who spawns rushing after you?

[jolly talon]

so basically what we are already getting without the need of a key

[small spear]

exactly

[torpid tendon]

I couldn't find any info abt them

[small spear]

hoarders, from the underground faction, the one with the chainsaw chunga and poison dart throwers

commonly referred to as the "loot goblin", many rpgs have this kind of npc

[jolly talon]

would have been cool if they put faction specific weapons or loot in there instead

like our own spin offs of a war hound for example stupid example i know xD

[molten spire]

wait for the Christmas season and you'll see for the loot goblin

[torpid tendon]

~Me casually stashing anything I find in the streets~. Did you call?

[kind veldt]

quest to get chatterbox was like that

[jolly talon]

Chatterbox?

[kind veldt]

open hyenas cases, collect parts and assemble the gun

[celest light]

Eh. It's all random chance. In the span of a week I'd gotten an exotic from a random gear chest on normal, exotic from a territory stash on heroic, and an exotic from a lockbox on a heroic mission

[kind veldt]

exotic P90 SMG

[celest light]

So super lucky on that but exotics are so easy to get nowadays

[jolly talon]

not a fan of the P90 at all xD

[celest light]

To be fair though gear chests and gun cases are almost a waste of time. The amount of time it takes to get to some of them and the animation sucks. Oh well, more loot.

[rancid sphinx]

obviously, that didn't need to be said. do a bounty and you spend more than half the time running around cause it takes 5 locations before the bounty shows up. so much running around that u cover the entire region. bounties in NY suck. too much cardo going on and not enough shooting. key is not worth the time. DC is so much better set up on bounties.

[small spear]

key is not worth the time

yes

[torpid tendon]

I killed a random red dude in the open world and he dropped memento.... I guess I wasted all my luck on that lol

[celest light]

Right? Feeling like my luck is entirely blown finding three exotics in boxes in one week.

[hybrid ore]

Faction Crates (the key boxes) seem to have a higher chance to spawn the Acostas bag, if you ever want to try the weirdest exotic farm in the game.

I opened 10 last week and got 4.

repeated it a few times to varying success.

[jolly talon]

this sounds really stupid but I would love to have a collab with a sci-fi franchise again tbh

I would be so down to get a clone trooper /Mandalorian kit

[kind veldt]

i'm trying my hardest to not name some random gachas just the heck of it

well massive is working on a star wars game, so not impossivel we might get some basic cosmedics next year

the resident evil cosmedics were a nice surprise

[hybrid ore]

I mean, technically speaking that leaves Avatar on the table too, if we're going by franchises that MSV are working on.

[kind veldt]

well the humans are not the good guys there

[raw dock]

whole team getting a Delta 3 at the end of legendary roosevelt... ubi servers can fuck right off

[hybrid ore]

I mean, we as Agents commit an awful lot of war crimes as the good guys.

And we've also got Outfits before for the villains, aka: Resident Evil Apparel Event.

[kind veldt]

i mean the avatar cosmedics are one stone toss away from aliens cosmedics, not against but it doesnt really feel special

[jolly talon]

i think it would be a great idea imo but that is me ^^

[hybrid ore]

I can see it happening.
although I can 100% see Outlaws more.

[kind veldt]

specially to increase marketting

avatar game had quite low marketting i feel

[jolly talon]

It makes sense though

that franchise has a very mixed fanbase

and they also did not want to make it a hate pinata at the same time probably

[rancid sentinel]

how hard its to reach floor 100 in summit on normal difficulty?

[celest light]

Really easy

[hybrid ore]

Summit is more about farming gear than just reaching the end, you should try and raise the difficulty up so you get stuff that's worthwhile.

[rancid sentinel]

im stuck at floor 34+ its super hard for me

[hybrid ore]

It's almost certainly a combination of your inexperience and build, both of which will improve over time.
Try picking a build that looks like fun in the spreadsheet that's 📌 pinned over in #td2-build-advice and you'll have a much better time.
something focused around DPS is a good start.

"Hunters Fury" is very new player friendly.

[rancid sentinel]

i think it took me like a week to reach here only on normal lol making difficulty more will make me cry n stuck at floor 1 or maybe at 3 for iternity lol

[celest light]

Yeah I guess it should be stated first and foremost that your experience and build will make a world of difference in your progression. Even little things like consolidating your gear down to a few pieces instead of what you think works makes a big difference

[rancid sentinel]

build yes as i hit lvl 40 defeated the final boss in nyc n came to summit lol

[hybrid ore]

It's also your experience for sure, div2 is 50% your build, and 50% knowing how to play your build in the content you want to play.

we all started where you are now, we've all made the push to true endgame.

[kind veldt]

yeah just try to get some decent gear and aim towards some build

just think what weapon or thing you like to try and see what appears to go towards that direction

[rancid sentinel]

i honestly till now didnt not understand how to a build even after watching video on youtube lol very bad at understanding lol

[kind veldt]

what do you want to do?

[celest light]

That's alright. I'm no build smith myself and a lot of my theorycrafting (basically close to zero) and knowledge comes from people's builds and especially if they explain the reasoning

[rancid sentinel]

damage n not die fast

ill show my build let me open my game

[torpid tendon]

Hf

[celest light]

But yes first and foremost, how do you want to play the game? Passive? Aggressive? Let your skills do the work? Shoot gun?

[kind veldt]

would reccomend using then crusader shield

that skill is about having more survivability while keeping your main gun up

[rancid sentinel]

i like sniper

[torpid tendon]

Go for hotshot+determined

[kind veldt]

then switch the shield for decoy skill to enemies will shot the skill and not you

the brands that buff snipers are araldi, providence because of headshot bonus, and i think hapsburg

there is also aces and eights gear set if you like semi auto snipers like the SVD, or hotshot if you want to go in the one shot kill mentality

[torpid tendon]

I use chainkiller, Habsburg backpack with bloodsucker and 4 hotshot pieces

[celest light]

For sure. Decoy would be great in general. I'm not sure what else compliments snipers since I don't do that

[torpid tendon]

Just roll everything to hs damage, get hs damage mods and ure good to go

[torpid tendon]

It is, since you cant use the shield.

[celest light]

Marksman rifles. Not even once. I won't even do challenges that require you to use them

[celest light]

I will say this as well. Don't be afraid to use the door you come in from as your choke point.

Using a weapon like a MMR stepping deep into the room if you don't have to is just putting yourself in the kill box. Especially when they start spawning on doors near or behind you

[stoic valley]

Rando question, do bounties count as activities for projects?

[full zinc]

Yes I believe so.
Just make sure they are applicable to area/faction needed for the project

[stoic valley]

Thanks... yeah Rikers activity, thinking of doing Rikers bounties

[full zinc]

Personally I roll through control points as they count for 2 activities

[celest light]

Timewise control points are a much shorter activity and yes it counts for two. You'll even get two named kills on level 4 control points

[lunar hare]

yes, so are Public Executions, Territory Controls, etc

[celest light]

When I'm just doing open world XP runs I don't even get the bounty from public executions

[jolly talon]

I actually had a great idea , masks based on animals like wolves and bears

[broken solstice]

and baphomet

[kind veldt]

we hotline miami now?

[lunar hare]

[zinc shadow]

Manny has a dark past he has been keeping secret...

[empty wren]

These Deltas need to relax bro I can't run any legendary strongholds without it crashing

[bronze cosmos]

What’s the best skills for dz

[balmy cedar]

I got reset twice going Jefferson plaza yesterday cause of delta 😭

I wonder if these deltas cause hardcore characters to die

[rare dust]

Any tips and tricks for farmin world activity's on heroic for XP ? right now im running a 4x striker build, with Coyote mask and a AR, but Heroic just seem to take too long to do with 4 directives then on challenging ?
Challenging is not a problem, takes max 2 minuts to do a hostage rescue

[random quest]

You aren't comfortable enough with the striker playstyle, because Heroic 4Directives public executions shouldn't take much more than 2 minutes either

[kind veldt]

Then stick to challenging, better not waste time

[lunar hare]

don't go DZ with lvl30 or else mistakes were made

[torpid tendon]

Hotshot 🗿

[balmy cedar]

I find hunters fury with banshee, shield, memento helpful to survive 3 directive heroic

But black tusk is just a no no for my playstyle cause of special ammo disrupting shield

Hyena disorient you have to get used to

Otherwise heartbreaker is my next best friend… tho I find when solo more blue cores makes sense cause the enemies are less tanky your stacking options are limited (for bonus armor)

I run revive hive with striker shield but you can easily swap to banshee pulse / foam and crusader shield

[torpid tendon]

I don't use memento, I prefer ninjabike instead... For the special ammo guys, just send the drone after them

[balmy cedar]

Well memento is useful for the bonus armor allowing you to save your shield and tank some hits (run and gun to the enemy and use your shield to face tank) … the extra damage is better than simple adrenaline rush imo (I run obliterate)

Problem with ninjabike is you don’t even unlock the gearset backpack talent

The downside to memento is you lose stacks on fast travel to safe zones

So adrenaline rush could help but I’d argue in favor of bloodsucker

[random quest]

All you really need to run Heroic 4 Directive with striker (as he mentioned) is a reviver hive

[torpid tendon]

Yea, I'm aware of that.... But tbh, the hf backpack talent is kinda trash

[balmy cedar]

In place of a backpack talent tho it kind of helps… its the AOE one right

That’s if you’re using the ninjabike, but I don’t use it cause it’s just a talent loss

[full zinc]

memento efficiency also bumps up shields overall armor. skill health is shield health basically

[torpid tendon]

Yup, its the aoe one.

Increafes the aoe from 5 to 10m i believe

[balmy cedar]

For me hunters fury is better for all these directives because of the fact you can just run up on them and disorient nearby enemies without having to worry about them running behind cover

[torpid tendon]

Not really worth for me

Hold on, I'll just send how I'm running it in #td2-build-advice

[bronze cosmos]

I know that now 😭

I died in 2 shots

[kind veldt]

Well memento being released together with hunters fury made that a match made in heaven

Also at the height of the crazy rainbow loot conspiracy

Now if only pistols could get such gear set

[sand herald]

I hope there is a patch on tuesday for all these god damn problems.. Deltavison 2....

[torpid tendon]

I miss my dttooc white death so bad :c

[lunar hare]

it's gonna take a while because of millions of random talent rerolls

[torpid tendon]

I'm losing like... 1.5m dmg without it

[lunar hare]

Two of my god rolled MMR's including White Death have Ignited, lame.

[torpid tendon]

My white death now has first blood I believe...

[quick wolf]

+130 in queu. LMAO

[sturdy shore]

hey guys how do u level ur class skill?

[torpid tendon]

Afaik, just having it equipped will lvl it up

I believe you get +5 points everytime you gain a shd level.

[deep grail]

These Delta's are driving me crazy. Ughhh!

[lunar hare]

where now?

[deep grail]

On playstation 5

[lunar hare]

yeah but i meant which place/mission

[deep grail]

Ohh sorry... Roosevelt Island

and Control Points

[random quest]

Solo?

And your region?

[deep grail]

When I do Control Points Solo yes, but the Roosevelt Island Delta was with a full group

US East Region

they have been happening since that Patch Update a few days ago

[random quest]

I ask because I have gotten like 5 since the patch, EU (Copenhagen), and the Delta's has ONLY happened while near other players.

[deep grail]

its so bad that my whole Clan refuse to play until they fix it

[random quest]

Then you should try installing Watch Dogs on pc. It has mouse acceleration that you cannot disable via menus and can't completely disable via the config file. I've never uninstalled a game so fast

[deep grail]

Sheesh!

[small spear]

no wonder why i hated aiming in that game so much

[deep grail]

yeah it was bad bad on PC. I never knew why, now i know

[random quest]

I didn't even make it out of the first area with the two police guards because accel

[bronze cosmos]

Can I do raid at level 30

[kind veldt]

Yeah, both raids are accessiblr

[bronze cosmos]

What is jet plane

[kind veldt]

If you mean the airport one, its called dark hours ans it was the first raid

[bronze cosmos]

Are the raids pve?

[reef reef]

yes, but its gonna be hard to find a group that'll take you since you are just level 30

[bronze cosmos]

are the raids hard

[reef reef]

yes

[bronze cosmos]

Do they take long

[reef reef]

Around an hour or more, expect more if its your first time through, and even longer if you arent level 40

[cerulean linden]

6.9gb patch and rock and roll shotgun is still bugged.

[sturdy shore]

Hey guys does St.Elmo's drop on any countdown right?

[kind veldt]

y

[lunar hare]

If you select AR TL, yes

[harsh mica]

anyone else kept getting disconnected mid mission ? been trying to do the weekly legendary multiple times now

[small spear]

try to find another server

[lunar hare]

Heroic CP4's are like butter with hotshot, it's easier to get Field Recon data

[sturdy shore]

hey guys my friend is doing the dlc and he's asking how to kill the razorback

[kind veldt]

stand inside a circle around one of the batteries, it will pop up two weakpoints he needs to break, then shoot the main panel that will open and repeat

[balmy cedar]

If it’s a first time clear - with explanations and backpack trophies and such / keys then it tacks on an additional 15 - 20 minutes usually,

Otherwise everyone already knows what they’re doing and dark hours can be done in under 30-40 minutes

Iron Horse takes longer cause more mechanics

[kind veldt]

DH is pretty simple and fast even more with how much stronger we got overall

[undone timber]

A decent IH team will usually be like 45-60 mins probably less

[balmy cedar]

Yea I was wondering if I was exaggerating with 40 minutes

[undone timber]

DH is probably sub 30

[kind veldt]

For DH probably most of tge time is spent in razorback fight

Just because mechanics take time

Well i really hope they make more incursions

I feel like they reached a good sweat spot between difficulty and matchmaking

[undone timber]

It is really nice yeah

Something challenging you can matchmake easily for

That isn’t as wild as a legendary

[cyan narwhal]

legendary is fun. why everyone playing tidal basin on legendary so much

[kind veldt]

Legendary in the first game was a mood before classified dropped and just made them a cakewalk

[undone timber]

They're still pretty bullshit solo if you don't know where to peek but yeah with a reclaimer it's piss easy in a grp

[kind veldt]

Well they were not designed for solo so you are setting yourself up for trouble

[undone timber]

True

[cyan narwhal]

drone operater is pain

[bronze cosmos]

We couldn’t clear that boss with the fire

The dude with the flamethrower

How do u kill him

[pliant sentinel]

iron horse?

[bronze cosmos]

Yea

[pliant sentinel]

imma be honest w u, i have multiple IH clears and i still have no idea how boss 2 and 3 mechanics fully works

[undone timber]

There’s codes in the furnace that the control room relays to the team who shoot the corresponding box

[pliant sentinel]

sup naval

[undone timber]

Control room moves the lava to the crucible

At some point you have to match up water pressure and send water

Once you’ve dropped lava and destroyed the crucible you can kill fieser

[undone timber]

Heya

[pliant sentinel]

any updates on our weapons fix

[undone timber]

Not afaik

[pliant sentinel]

ngl i just crafted a new famas and it gave me back an almost maxed strained with DTTOOC

[neon wyvern]

[bronze cosmos]

Wait so what does the rpg do

[cyan narwhal]

fieser is the easiest boss after gray

u can skip all mechanics by one shot strat

[pliant sentinel]

i just dunno the full mechanics

i just shoot the circuit box and pump water

[cyan narwhal]

5 codes require for the cruicble, first one spawn boss

then weakpoints which requires to move crucible toward cannon

then at last the water

[undone timber]

For firing at the cannon

[cyan narwhal]

a person need to be in control room is very imp to progress. if he dies u cannot progress.

[pliant sentinel]

that i know, i can constantly hear the chem launcher in my sleep

[undone timber]

One of the positions that actually needs tankiness

[cyan narwhal]

u can just use the solid regen build with catharsis

catharsis proc with heat damage

if u dont have healer build for control room

the minimum amount of people require for ih is 2 for discovery

u can do it solo too if u know everything

[bronze sluice]

so how often does NYC go on sale?

I assume smth like once a month?

[terse silo]

can sonmeone help me with the game? trying to figure a few things out

[bronze sluice]

shoot

[terse silo]

i'm stuck on story missions. i've done all available but it says im not at 100% and no idea how to get them

not sure abot builds in d2 as well and just some of the things that are different from d1

[bronze sluice]

maybe NYC?

[terse silo]

i have all the nyc complete

[undone timber]

Are you missing side missions?

[terse silo]

the nyc story section and liberation are both at 100

[bronze sluice]

maybe the raids or stuff like coney island?

[undone timber]

Idk exactly but often enough

[terse silo]

not sure. i could stream my game in a channel so you can see what i have and tell me what i am mossing or need to do

[undone timber]

You're likely missing some of the side missions that you have to actively look for

That or you haven't done coney, pentagon, white oak, manning

[terse silo]

oh ok

[bronze sluice]

oh yeah that reminds me

[bronze cosmos]

So I have to use the water pressure stuff?

[terse silo]

i'll check those. i think i've done them but not 100

[bronze sluice]

I have never beat the airport one

is the reward any good?

I think it said "jet plane" or smth

[terse silo]

thats a riad

raid**

[bronze sluice]

ik

[kind veldt]

Dark hours

[bronze sluice]

but is "jet plane" any good?

[kind veldt]

it gives exotic AR called eagle bearer

[bronze sluice]

what is it based off?

m16?

[bronze cosmos]

Can someone explain to me how to beat the boss with the flamethrower in the iron horse raid

[kind veldt]

still a fun mission to run

[bronze sluice]

not when you tried it with 3 friends and got rko'd

[kind veldt]

well discord just dead for a sec

[bronze sluice]

oh it wasn't me?

I thought it was my internet :v

[cyan narwhal]

look up for fieser guide in yt u will find it

[kind veldt]

anyhow it gives eagle bearer that is just an okay AR

got powercreeped by other exotics

[bronze sluice]

it aint a PCC so I don want it

[kind veldt]

and the raid is made for 8 people, while i dont doubt smart people can do ith with 4, it's gonna be a struggle

[cyan narwhal]

dont like the recoil on eagle bearer

[bronze sluice]

is the recoil on banshee any good?

or let me rephrase

what does it accel in?

I'mma move this to td2 build advice

on a side note I am very excited to run banshee and banshee

it just feels right

[balmy cedar]

Nah cause the incursion is not flexible with builds at all… in raids you can pretty much use whatever you want cause there’s damage phases and mechanics… we get that with the Wright boss fight and truck encounter… but lovebirds… its so poorly designed

The mechanic is if you don’t kill this guy fast enough good luck cause they go immune and his wife just spams incendiaries at you nonstop

They have no timer / cooldown whatsoever … just when they spawn the drones and that’s based on how much damage they take

[kind veldt]

i mean only IH requires a tank

[balmy cedar]

The only reason I’ve been able to use builds like red heartbreaker, hunters fury and negotiators during that fight was cause my friends using strikers chest, Scorpio and opportunistic with pulse overcharge buff

[kind veldt]

most of the fights mechanics are pulled away from builds more about mechanical coordination

[balmy cedar]

I’m talking about the incursion being poorly designed, that it’s not a balance between the raids at all

Those immune drones need to go

[kind veldt]

you said that in raids you can use whatever, but it's because it also ignores builds and only asks once for a real tank

[balmy cedar]

In raids you can use the ninjabike backpack and getaway with it lol

[kind veldt]

they suffer from not really caring about builds 99% of the time

do enough damage is the only thing htat matters really

[balmy cedar]

And most of that damage usually comes from dodge city holster for most players or whatever red build they want to use

It doesn’t force you to use the most max dps ever so you don’t die by the time you reload

[kind veldt]

you only need ultra min max DPS in lovebirds if you want to one cycle them

18/24 clears of mine were with random groups in matchmaking

the rest were trying out flawless until we got it

[balmy cedar]

Is everyone using striker builds?

[kind veldt]

most of the time

[balmy cedar]

Are you forced to use a healer to survive?

[kind veldt]

lmao nope

it helps, but it's not needed

[balmy cedar]

Then it’s not flexible at all, I’m speaking from experience that only one build works and that’s because the whole thing is designed on dps …

[kind veldt]

tell me how IH doesnt require tank to survive the giant gun when under the train

[balmy cedar]

Are you using the gate strat?

[kind veldt]

fuck no

[balmy cedar]

The only reason for the tank is the invulnerable shield lol. But you’re completely missing my point… how does the mechanic works better with a tank equate to not having one makes it unplayable

[kind veldt]

my point is that you said incursion is not flexible because it forces builds while raid doesnt, i pointed out how raid also does that

[balmy cedar]

Bruh

[kind veldt]

the DPS check of incursion is higher than DH and IH

it's just content that came out later so devs adapated to players tools

DH is quite easy right now due how tronger we are

[balmy cedar]

Don’t kill Johnson first during the incursion and let me know what happens, cause technically you don’t have to kill him first, you just have to dps check him because god forbid he releases his immune drone

[kind veldt]

i know what happens, i think one of the colleactables you need to kill him last

heck people have used skill builds for the incursion with oxidizer

[balmy cedar]

Are you just immune to the part where it’s a dps check which is why oxi would even be used

[kind veldt]

they also use on the turrets at the start, some folks use them to kill the heavies as their spawn on truck, definetly there isnt much use for offensive skills on wright

[pliant sentinel]

i think once u kill martinez the immune drone doesnt come back

[kind veldt]

he just spams turrets a lot

which i dont deny are really dangerous

[bronze sluice]

sounds like a jammer moment

I really think jammer would be useful but I can't leave banshee

[blissful sable]

I remember when DH first came out and players had builds that could destroy buddy and lucy with mortar turrets.
People say power creep, but I would argue that it is more of an issue of the playerbase getting somewhat smarter and certain effective tactics becoming more normalized.

[kind veldt]

now thats a name i remember from the forums

[blissful sable]

Shhhh

[balmy cedar]

I never said this by the way. The raid is flexible in that you can use negotiators, sniper builds, skill builds, ongoing directive, any damn gun you please, umbra, glass cannon, all without having to maximize dps because the boss goes immune otherwise

[kind veldt]

well i say power creep because of reworks of gear, expertise and some busted stuff like ouroboros

[blissful sable]

We know a lot more about our gear now than we did years ago too.

[kind veldt]

i just think this is more related to the natural escalation of playerbase needing something even harder

IH is harder than DH, and incursion pushes more because it came out later than IH

[balmy cedar]

It’s not even that it’s hard, it’s that I don’t want to use one build for one encounter otherwise hold my team back because there’s no mechanic other than dps

[kind veldt]

like the legendary missions that came out later with zoo and tidal are harder than the other 3 we had

[blissful sable]

The incursion is also newer and the playerbase has not caught up as much in the area of experience.

[kind veldt]

newer and better strats will come for sure

[blissful sable]

IH has more mechanics and is more demanding.

[balmy cedar]

And here’s another reason that it’s poorly designed…

Why is it that people are just using gate strat and the moment the method of the stairs fails they instantly doubt the person telling them to piss off with the gate strat because they don’t want to sit there for 20 minutes

Usually it fails because of dps loss

[blissful sable]

When they do, more builds and tactics will be possible. Signs of a healthy game.

[kind veldt]

and possibly other stuffs that has struggled to be relevant in terms of gear get reworked

OD didnt have a use before but now it does as a support set

[blissful sable]

Yeah the color blue for gear has been a hard one for the base to make work. More sets and brands are being released for blue so players are learning.

Making Weapon Handling and Health transition from dead stats to viable options is also going to take some time to have the playerbase adapt to.

[blissful sable]

OD was criminally neglected for so long. I love it now.

[kind veldt]

i dont half hate aegis as much because the concept of using of using aggro is better

but i think they didnt work enough on the mechanics to make it relevant

and mosquite is just buggy and doesnt work half the time

[blissful sable]

Threat in this game has been an issue they have struggled with. Tanks can never seem to generate it to be useful.

[kind veldt]

shoot heavies with mosquito and stayed in front of htem only for htem to turn 90° degress and shoot someone else

[undone timber]

Aegis conceptually along with mosquito are really cool

Just threat is wonky and the DR isn't enough

[kind veldt]

the gloves i do hate, but thats for another day

god i have these blindfire gloves

[blissful sable]

The problem is that DPS=Threat and it is difficult to generate it if you are running a blue build.

I have run around IH as a healer and literally run up to a shotgunner and Sweet Dreams'd them while they were running across the map to shoot a DPS.

[kind veldt]

well used that a lot to kill healers on capitol legendary on release when those boxes were busted

[blissful sable]

If you don't have threat from having DPS, NPC's will ignore you.

A better threat or 'taunt' system might be needed. The Mosquito and Decoy options for the Aegis set are a welcome idea.

In practice and execution tho....

[balmy cedar]

Was it you I was talking to about red aegis 🤣😏

[blissful sable]

That sounds like the only way besides nursing a decoy to generate threat with it at the moment.

[balmy cedar]

Gosh darn it I got canceled hard and deleted the pieces now you make me want them back 😭

Jk I made someone want to puke by mentioning it 😭

[blissful sable]

I wonder if Yellow Aegis might be an option

A yellow aegis with a decoy and artificer hive might have potential.

[kind veldt]

it might work but the problem is more... how does that really help you if you are going to be avoiding damage

[blissful sable]

A friend of me is total insane with this game. He once ran a tier 6 decoy with an artificer. The Decoy never stopped and it had crazy aggro.

[balmy cedar]

This they said a repair skills aegis gives an invulnerable decoy + shield

[kind veldt]

might be remembering wrong, but isnt that bonus from the decoy being targetted goes to you?

[balmy cedar]

Si

[kind veldt]

if you say the decoy also gets the bonus thats more interesting

[blissful sable]

I think the chest or the backpack has that perk

I could be wrong tho.

[kind veldt]

i thought it was that made so if decoy was targged you also got the bonus

lemme double check the talents

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zP5zhIe0Gdw/maxresdefault.jpg

https://staticg.sportskeeda.com/editor/2024/01/9d146-17056971227602-1920.jpg

if this counts skills on their own (which i dont know) then it could be definitely interesting for immortal decoy

[blissful sable]

I can't possibly imagine how anyone could abuse or misuse that, lol

[kind veldt]

Backpack Bonus – Talent “Polyethylene Plating”
Increase Stoic Damage Resistance bonus from 3% to 4%

[balmy cedar]

You mean 3% to 0% 😂

[blissful sable]

Oh yeah wasn't that a glitch?

[lunar hare]

[blissful sable]

Still on paper, 1.8x(4%)xN number of NPC's.

[lunar hare]

yeah

[kind veldt]

i think making the bonus double when you lost all your armor could make the set more interesting to run

weirdo health tank

[jolly talon]

Morning agents

[undone timber]

Yeah they're just shit however you slice it

[undone timber]

Never heard of a red aegis wtf😭

[balmy cedar]

I came up with it cause I kept finding crit damage pieces 😂

[undone timber]

If aegis had more damage resistance it wouldn’t be a half bad idea to be fair

Dps draws more aggro than mosquito does lol

[balmy cedar]

Me in countdown running all red immediately getting shot by the hunter 🤣

[bronze cosmos]

What rewards does iron horse raid give you guranteed

[lost pivot]

Have they increased the chest size from 300?

[small spear]

no

[undone timber]

Base materials and projects to get the regulus

[copper quail]

Damn, Danny doesn't have anything for sale?

[marsh crystal]

is the dark zone dead

[lunar hare]

this is meaningless but, i just killed my first two pve rogue's

[fluid meadow]

Not really

But mostly

Same problem with me, wondering when it’s gonna get fixed

[lunar hare]

Open inventory > Go in any gear/weapon slot > Tinker > Show Resources

That's the way I see my resources without the Tab

Thanks for the answer....i know that way but I wanted to know if there is a bug or not.

[lunar hare]

It is, since the recent patch

Has anyone else experienced an issue during the first boss fight (heavy in speak easy) where the aggro bounces around between your group members unexpectadly? No one is shooting at him and the person who turned the valve will lose that aggro. It is a massive problem when clearing adds and then you get the eye symbol.

[undone timber]

First I've heard of that happening

[bronze sluice]

alr I feel like some immersion would be good rn so I'm getting my kit together and turning my volume up to deafening levels as one does

[jolly talon]

fuck sakes that ambush of BT during the manhunt is so annoying x3

[bronze sluice]

BT from the hit game Titanfall 2 is in the renown ubisoft title The Division 2?

[jolly talon]

😂

[random quest]

Tinnitus is fun

[undone timber]

I love the smell of bleeding ears in the morning

[lunar hare]

ever heard of burnout?

[undone timber]

Yeah man paradise especially was pretty fun

[bronze sluice]

Yall can SMELL?

I can't ;w;

I'm going to east DZ, time to go get PK'd

bcs east is where all the rouges are

[random quest]

You're lvl 30, not like the DZ is mega contested

[bronze sluice]

yeah but east is still pretty fk'd

[lunar hare]

i think I should go to sleep

Rudy

[random quest]

Any selfdestruct buttons today?

[lunar hare]

maybe, but I can't seem to find it

[bronze sluice]

so is your name a request or a role?

do you want me to command you or are you a commander?

[lunar hare]

he is THE commander

[bronze sluice]

ah

who does he command?

I hope shade agents bcs I'm black tusk lamo

*lmao

😔

[random quest]

It's because you have to tell Agent Perry about it - then you'll find it

[lunar hare]

PERRY THE PLATYPUS?!

[lunar hare]

that's a very personal question for CommanderRRutherforf

[tacit goblet]

Note the phineas and ferb references 😭🤣

[lunar hare]

👀

[random quest]

Whaaaat, there's phineas and ferb references? 😮

[tacit goblet]

“THERES A HUNDRED AND FOUR DAYS OF SUMMER VACATION!”

Side note, y’all seen the gameplay stuff for off the grid?

[random quest]

"black tusk lamo" is cannon now

[lunar hare]

why does rivens always spawn out of nowhere

i mean hi rivens!

[azure lintel]

Rude

Least rude way to tell someone off without telling someone off

[lunar hare]

didn't mean to😔

[hybrid ore]

I just have no consistency in my schedule, it's a fair point.

[azure lintel]

Felt that to the core

Whats a schedule

[hybrid ore]

I like to stay unpredictable.

[opal radish]

Secret Server Boss

[lunar hare]

i didn't notice it was 4:22 am and I'm still awake

[azure lintel]

Rivens is the keener of the server

[lunar hare]

someone send me to sleep asap

[azure lintel]

@random quest

[opal radish]

Sweet dreams

[azure lintel]

So what you're saying is they're not elite

[random quest]

I've got melatonin for you I guess

[azure lintel]

See rudolph ph ph is the sleep grandioso

Why's that when I sleep at a normal time for normal amount of hours I wake up worse than if I slept 2h

[lunar hare]

i mainly speak Spanish and because I've been writing in English for so long I read "grandioso" in an non-spanish accent

i just triggered myself

[random quest]

because it's not something you normally do and your body is telling you "I need more of this, please"

[lunar hare]

that actually has a scientific answer

[azure lintel]

I feel this

[azure lintel]

Waking up with a headache with 1 eye almost falling out and with baggy eyes = I need more of this

[tacit goblet]

I still don’t understand how to upgrade my expertise level. I hold the button for donate all junk and it does nada

[bronze sluice]

the last one I failed on rql hard

call the bondulence

[azure lintel]

Because all the junk you're donating is prob max

Donate other types of junk

[lunar hare]

you first have to get it Proficient

[azure lintel]

Thats the word yeah

Donate junk or materials to lvl up the gears proficiency and when it's maxed out you can add expertise lvls to it

[tacit goblet]

Oh ok

[azure lintel]

I wish I knew about not donating exotics sooner...

[bronze sluice]

happy happy happy 😄

[lunar hare]

don't add expertise until your gear is max optimised, just saying

[azure lintel]

Guess I had removed my brain back then

[bronze sluice]

I can't share imgs in this one :[

[azure lintel]

#ask-td2-community

[random quest]

Whenever I get an exotic drop I already have, I insta deconstruct just so I don't accidentally donate it

[azure lintel]

😎 td2 community chat club

[azure lintel]

SAME

[lunar hare]

I accidentally rerolled a god rolled Scorpio, it still hunts me to this day

[azure lintel]

I started doing that couple weeks ago and I'm never going back lol

[azure lintel]

...

[lunar hare]

I KNOW OKAY? SHUT UP

[random quest]

I get what you mean, but it's essentially your body screaming for help. When you sleep, the brain filters and cleans out toxins - I'd imagine if you're running on low sleep for a while and finally get the sleep you need, it's like hitting the reset button

[lunar hare]

why do you know everything

[azure lintel]

More like

Why don't you

[azure lintel]

Explains where the toxicity comes from

[lunar hare]

huh?

[azure lintel]

Look at that red message

[random quest]

Highly intelligent + ADHD-PI + constant hyperfocus on research (that isn't what I study, because that's homework and not procrastination) = I'm like a Swiss Army Knife, I've got a pretty solid baseline of knowledge of a broad number of subjects, however I'm not specialised in anything.

[random quest]

You said that, not me

[lunar hare]

when you wrote adhd I realised instantly

okay, I'll go to sleep

[bronze sluice]

so whats the diff between stealing and looting a dz drop?

[lunar hare]

almost 5 fkn am

[random quest]

At this point just stay up, fix it later

[azure lintel]

My brain can't clear out the toxins fast enough (I don't give it time)

[bronze sluice]

#ask-td2-community message

[lunar hare]

make me

[azure lintel]

#td2-build-advice

[lunar hare]

STOP

[azure lintel]

🧐

[azure lintel]

Stealing = Cool
Looting = pve bot

In dz terms

[bronze sluice]

so looting = stinky

[azure lintel]

Extra bonuses if you deconstruct the loot

Had my fair share of doing that to some exotics just to piss some people off

[bronze sluice]

may I draw your attention

[azure lintel]

And get called 39x different words bannable world wide

[bronze sluice]

#ask-td2-community message

[random quest]

something, something toxicity doesn't rely on sleep (I know way too many toxic people that sleeps well)

[random quest]

It's okay, you can keep the chat in there - makes the pictures make much more sense later on aswell

[lunar hare]

like the toxic symbiote?

[azure lintel]

Division corrupts people

Prob all the mindless countless farming

[lunar hare]

FUCK, GO TO SLEEP ALREADY DOOMZ

[azure lintel]

Simple solution, we don't chat and let this chat die until you get so bored you'd rather sleep

[lunar hare]

or I just throw my phone out the window

[azure lintel]

Wouldn't recommend that option it can be costy

[random quest]

Or, or.
Play Regulus with cold hands / Legendary Summit with Nemesis and the enemy dabs every time you charge up the shot and shoot, so you hit the hand instead.
(One of my worst experiences in Legendary Summit is the enemies hiding in cover and then just aimbotting you with their "blind fire" as if they have third-person view aswell )

[lunar hare]

i have a spare phone

[random quest]

Don't you guys have phones?

[azure lintel]

High five I have 3 others lol

[azure lintel]

Istg they dodge specifically as soon as you shoot sometimes

[bronze sluice]

#ask-td2-community message I can smell the free loot

[azure lintel]

They can be idle fr 39h while you wait for them to finish animation and then you let go and boom they move 3 cm

[random quest]

gabby, just type in ask ...

[bronze sluice]

pass

[azure lintel]

Non invaded dz = boooo

[bronze sluice]

I want named backpacks >:{

[azure lintel]

I don't get the turrets, getting spawncamped? tp to somewhere else

[azure lintel]

I want matador but had no luck in forever

[lunar hare]

no one saw nothing, good night

[random quest]

i did, and I bid you good luck - need a cuddler?

[bronze sluice]

dz west is non-invaded and has backpakcs as targeted

[lunar hare]

HUH?!

[azure lintel]

Welp

Time to go farm that the whole day to try my luck

With my regen build 😃 oh a team of 7 people approaching me going rogue? good luck catching these

[bronze sluice]

[azure lintel]

[azure lintel]

Why aren't you lvl 40

[bronze sluice]

I'm poor

thats why

[azure lintel]

Can you gift dlcs through ubi?

[bronze sluice]

maybe

[random quest]

Expansion is full price rn

[bronze sluice]

ubisoft giftcards are a thing

[azure lintel]

How much is it again

[bronze sluice]

30usd

[azure lintel]

Alright give me a momt

[random quest]

You got base game on ubi or steam?

[bronze sluice]

[azure lintel]

Oh I can just gift through steam

I think

[lunar hare]

🚂

[bronze sluice]

that the sleep train?

bcs it sounds like go to bed b4 I make you

:[

[lunar hare]

make me.

[bronze sluice]

I'mma wrap round yo ass like a spider

[lunar hare]

sounds fair

[bronze sluice]

or just spend 20 dollars in duct tape to restrain you

[azure lintel]

@bronze sluice send me your steam friend code

[random quest]

thought you were poor

[azure lintel]

in dm

[bronze sluice]

ight

[bronze sluice]

I have like 15 rolls of gorilla tape

why do you think I'm poor?

[random quest]

...

[lunar hare]

g - fucking - n.

[bronze sluice]

damn maybe I should just tape yer mouf shut

[bronze sluice]

who wants to bet 20 minutes later they still gonn be up?

[random quest]

Can't bet what you don't have

[azure lintel]

Btw before you start wony, make sure you completed everything in DC

You wont be able to go back until you finish it

[bronze sluice]

I just have 1 question, can I find shd tech in NYC?

bcs I know the importance of that stuff there

[azure lintel]

Tbh I have no clue

[bronze sluice]

fuck it: we are going in blind 🔥 💯

[azure lintel]

Last time I was going around for tech was almost a year ago

[reef reef]

you can

[slow ocean]

Yes, 5 in each region

[random quest]

Eeeh, Target Loot allocation has to be different for lvl 30 then, because DZ West is Exuro today.
Backpack in TB

[azure lintel]

😞 Why they do this to me

[balmy cedar]

Funny enough you can skip the shd tech in dc bc the ones in nyc are absolutely useless except to get purple gear from those crates

[pliant sentinel]

why are the secret vendors stationed at west end always bugged

[shell valve]

What can i do at CONSTANTLY GETTING Delta-03 wtf

[random quest]

You can skip the ones in DC because the ones in NYC is useless? brain not braining

[tacit goblet]

Are the secret vendors worth seeking out

[balmy cedar]

Meaning they do the same thing if you don’t use them on the yellow crates lol

The yellow crates being what makes them useless

If you’ve collected all the ones from dc you’ll have like 15 plus left over

Making New York ones useless

[bronze cosmos]

What level do I need to be for the ravenous rifle

[green crescent]

Iron horse raid. Get the 5 keys and hit the box at the end and pray it drops

[shell valve]

Fix Delta=03...

[torpid tendon]

Yup, I'm still crashing when trying to claim the final loot in countdown

[undone timber]

Integral part of the countdown experience

[torpid tendon]

Dayum, my game is just frozen... I'll have to close it via steam lol

[celest light]

Danny and Cassie? If you're referring to those two it's sometimes a way to grab some items that are hard to find

Well, with Cassie that is. Danny is there to use your textiles if you're done buying available cosmetics with them

[random quest]

Actually cannot remember the last time I had that crash in countdown
I don't know if I would rather have that happening or have a banger squad + close range buff clear heroic extraction with over 1 minute left for them to then.... call in the chopper

[torpid tendon]

It happens quite often tbh.... I'd say 20% chance or so

[random quest]

ruben's website is usually updated within the first day of reset (Cassie the day after, when she opens).
Cassie will always sell the hunter-chest weapons after you've obtained them and Danny has chests you can spend surplus textiles on - some of the chests he sold was MAX ROLL guaranteed at first, but I've heard chatter that was changed with TU20.2

[torpid tendon]

Maybe getting those named item caches would be worth of it... I dunno, costs 400 each

Unfortunately you can get only 2 per week afaik... Idk, I think I'm just getting that pink weapon skin from the store instead

[real creek]

Most of us have like 10k+ textiles sitting around with like 1k cache keys, I'm buying them just to make use of the textiles.

[torpid tendon]

Yea, I have like 4k or so

[undone timber]

they either made them insanely expensive, limited the stock, or made the rewards garbo

its hard to balance tbf

[kind veldt]

Money is hard to balance, thats why every game mode kinda gets their own shops

[torpid tendon]

That's why its easier to get named caches from countdown instead...+proficiency+materials.

[jolly talon]

wait there is actual ingame currency ? 😂

[real creek]

Just do em all yo

[undone timber]

weaver is faster if you have the dosh

nice little bonus

just a way to put excess textiles to use really

[random quest]

getting the textiles isn't fast though
No matter if you have 5K keys, because for some reason we can't open 10 at a time and get a list. We have to watch the animation like dopamine starved kids

[undone timber]

i wonder when they'll add bulk openings

[random quest]

But the animation

[undone timber]

I have the jingle imprinted into my brain

[gaunt dust]

Anyone getting deltas?

[opal radish]

It's pita

Gaccha game loot management >> Ubisoft game

[torpid tendon]

Some people are getting them, yes.

[bronze cosmos]

How do I get the keys

[undone timber]

you were the guy on discovery earlier right

you can only get keys and raid loot on normal

[elder moon]

can someone help me with dh raid?

still no eb for like a year

[undone timber]

check pc lfg channel

if not there then check gcrock or community server

[green crescent]

4 keys are from boxes in the raid and the last one is when you beat it

[pliant sentinel]

woooo

[candid arch]

Danny is no longer selling god rolled items, or is it just me?

[lunar hare]

we are getting another patch that solves the current issues, everyone prepare for something else to be broken

[jolly talon]

Now now let's not be hasty with conclusions 🌲

[lunar hare]

but am I lying tho?

[small spear]

yeah they fixed it

[pearl stump]

Like every week, let's go. Ubisoft can make a show with this.. what fkery are we introducing in this episode(patch) today ?😃
