delta is a connection issue either with you or server os hard to tell

undone timber
#

i got into a us server recently and saw a clan mate I wasn't already grouped with for the first time

hybrid ore
#

Every time I click on USA it tries to auto-connect me to Texas.
There's a joke in there about people wanting to leave.

kind veldt
#

well you are the sheriff

median mantle
#

Does consoles also have connectivity issues?

kind veldt
#

well yeah

#

if you mean at this moment i cant say

#

PS4 players were having osme couple of weeks ago if i am not mistaken

wheat zinc
merry zinc
#

starting from scratch on console really shows how unplayable this game is for new players 😭

#

grinding countdown hundreds of times

hybrid ore
#

Countdown being a thing does negate a lot of that grind, compared to what it used to be.
Remember: countdown was only added a while back.

modest lintel
#

but you're on pc

merry zinc
undone timber
#

you can get geared up and ready to rumble in a handful of countdown runs

merry zinc
kind veldt
#

what nerf to cd?

undone timber
#

when did cd get nerfed

hybrid ore
#

I think they mean no cheesing with the starting Hunters, which just ruined everyone elses game.

merry zinc
modest lintel
#

when u're fed, but not taught how to fish

kind veldt
merry zinc
#

oh maybe i misunderstood that drop nerf then

kind veldt
#

yeah people would kill the initial hunters and quit

hybrid ore
#

When WONY dropped, there was no Summit, no Countdown, no Targeted Loot at all.

and Striker meta wasn't really a thing yet.
Honestly, now is so very much easier to get to endgame. You can do it in a week or less.

merry zinc
#

i remember that was annoying af

kind veldt
#

which made excessive amount of incomplete games that left people mad and take up server space

merry zinc
#

i do got a lot of end games builds done already

full zinc
#

I'm guessing you're busting the beginning drones and resetting. It's not worth when you can go legit and hotshot the same cp on repeat.
Heroic cp with directives is fastest xp atm. Something close to safehouse so resetting has you close to the cp. Dont get yourself banned...

broken solstice
#

strikers used to be pretty bad

#

what was it, lose 2 stacks for every missed shot. on top of 2 or 3 stacks per second decay maybe

stuck sapphire
#

That was funny though

azure lintel
#

finally got my elmo

dark kayak
#

Which sniper would you advise for a striker elmo-acs build ?

#

In case I wanna take down some VERY far enemies

small spear
#

don't recommend snipers for striker builds, it's best that you just use elmo anyway

dark kayak
#

Mostly a third weapon... or fourth if you count the handgun

#

I certainly won't use it often, so it's mostly just incase

vale rune
#

Can someone help me find snitch to buy textiles cache?

dark kayak
#

WHO'S SNITCHING ?

vale rune
#

The new vendors for texstiles

there are 42 locations you can spawn him from, not 42 locations you have to find all

just teleport to 1 of the 42

im doing the season pass then LEAVING

hybrid ore
#

Make sure you rule out your end. What kinda crashes you're getting, what is happening when they do, your task manager when they are, etc, etc.

umbral kite
#

i was gonna say that if they're consistent maybe they can be notified to ubi, and also to look at other things like video drivers, game integrity, settings, etc...

torpid ore
#

its probably my drivers tbh, but ive had crashing issues since i got the game in 2020 lmao

#

i dont mind it too much

hello
can anyone know how to update division 2
my ubisoft connect isnt working - cant open app is always closing
with Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime library error
i reinstall all library and dozen of time uninstall install ubisoft connect but still not work
and i opened a ticket 5 days ago not respond yet :'/

azure lintel
#

hey should i choose the division 2 as my main game cause i want a new main game?

kind veldt
#

why not? what are you looking for?

azure lintel
#

i need a destiny 2 alternative

#

but new setting

umbral kite
#

it's pretty good

azure lintel
#

really?

hybrid ore
#

It's very much not similar to des2, just a heads up.

umbral kite
#

yes it's quite different indeed, still a looter-shooter but different yeah

azure lintel
#

but i search for third person mmo loot

small spear
#

playstyle is very different, skill ceiling is fairly high and skill floor is decently average, so you can take your time mastering the game

azure lintel
#

i know

proud locust
#

Ok I need some elaborations here

small spear
#

movement is very very different

proud locust
#

I started watching NGN and is it true?

small spear
#

enemies and you shoot hitscan bullets in this game, so you can't dodge and weave bullets

azure lintel
#

i created a agent before

proud locust
#

Can we actually hack some warhounds to our side?

azure lintel
#

i play now

hybrid ore
#

Des2 is a power fantasy game, div2 is more of a tactical shooter.

azure lintel
#

but its not a game that i complete the story and then im finish

#

i need a long game that i can play every time you know what i mean

small spear
#

it's very much not so, you have lots of endgame content

azure lintel
#

raids?

small spear
#

you can also make the game as hard and as easy as you want

#

raids, incursion, legendary, any open world activity

umbral kite
hollow hill
#

After you finish the story, you can farm for a thousand levels towards your watch that will boost your character even further. You can make any build you want, and there's plenty of raids to do

trail shard
#

Hello, can you play PC and PS5 crossplay here?

umbral kite
#

no-crossplay

small spear
#

you can one tap npcs, do speedrunning, do legendaries

hollow hill
azure lintel
#

cause im a top 150 destiny 2 speedrunner

small spear
#

speedrunning in this game is very different

inner harness
#

People only care if you're in the top 10 maybe 20 depending on content

azure lintel
#

Yeah so i mean with that that i want in Division 2 Speedruns

vale rune
#

Hello it says vendor is closed opens in 4 hours and 30 min. How long is the vendor open?

#

?

hollow hill
#

I don't know in depth how often they stay open, just on Tuesdays they both reset

vale rune
#

So probably i cant buy named iteam cache and optimization cache so on its random each week?

real creek

#

never

warm minnow
#

nah you have to go for wr

#

cant let all that zoo go in vain

modest cradle
#

How people get different core attributes on st. Elmos engine? All I got is assult rifle damage and health damage, seen crit dng crit rate

lunar hare
lunar hare
#

Best roll is DTTOOC (dmg to target out of cover)

lunar hare
#

You cannot recalibrate exotics core attributes.

kind veldt
#

First two are static, weapon damage and weapon unique attribute

still juniper
#

both are based around dodging and cover, understanding enemy behaviors, mechanics, and how your own gear interacts with them

lapis junco
#

elden ring and div 2 are similar

#

even WOW fits that description

#

I dont know enough about destiny to say weither or not their similar but that description is extraordinarily general

kind veldt
#

Well tgey are shooter

#

Would say that destiny is more about exotics and working cooldown of classes that are kinda static unlocks that you select

#

While div2 is more about gear synergy and grinding for perfect rolls or specific things to customize playstyles that try to do the mmo trifecta of DPS/Tanks/mage

#

Destiny have full armor regen over time meanwhile div2 relies on skill or consumables to heal and people try to avoid damage

still juniper
lapis junco
#

this is still describing a million games

#

in that sense the only thing tarkov is missing is abilities to be similar to div 2

still juniper
#

i mean, shooter MMO's are all real similar imo

lapis junco
#

im just saying if you wanna compare 2 games you gotta be alot more specific. your thinking very general

still juniper
#

yeah but even if you get a little more specific they're all real similar

#

like, you have ranks of enemies with different colored healthbars and different amounts of health, different enemies have different weakpoints, destroying weakpoints can cripple a target, bosses have unreasonable amounts of health, a small group of people do amazing, almost incredulous things

#

there are a couple major factions and the odd offshoots therein, the different factions fight and behave very differently and have unique styles

kind veldt
#

one is halo, other is cover shooter diablo

undone timber
#

There's not really anything quite like the division

stable mica

Hi guys took a 1year break just got back on Pc my game crashes like every 5mins it minizes to window form and closes anyone can help is there a settings or config i must do kinda forgot it

thank you

honest sequoia
#

anyone know where the snitch is this week?

vale rune
#

Can you buy emperor Guard kneepads from cassie if she has?

hybrid ore
# honest sequoia anyone know where the snitch is this week?

It's randomised for everyone. There's methods online for how to farm out the spawn, but the tl;dr is to find a spot that they can spawn at that's near a fast travel point, and go there > if not there then log out and in.

@vale rune Cassie doesn't sell DZ locked items, that's just the Countdown vendor. (also the clan vendor has a chance to sell Yaahl pieces)

vale rune
#

I can get emperor Guard kneepads from Danny since he sometimes has named iteam cache right?

rough citrus
#

yes, named item caches can drop any named items

vale rune
#

But cassie does not sell named iteam cache?

rough citrus
#

cassie doesn’t danny does

#

cassie just sells named items and danny sells named item caches

vale rune
#

I thought since i have 6000 texstiles left i thought i could buy as many i can at Danny

rough citrus
#

pretty sure he sells 3 a week

vale rune
#

Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. I hoped he would be there everyday

inner elbow
#

Nope, he has the same cycle as Cassie. Appears for 24 hours then disappears for 36 houts

#

Also his wares don't restock

I buy from countdown named caches

vapid umbra
#

is there any voice channels for raids on this server ?

umbral kite
#

nope, you have to look at the community discord or gcrock discord, ubi removed the voice channels here

vapid umbra
umbral kite
#

well from my understanding the issue was that some users did some bad shit in the discord voices channels and they didn't had the ressources to moderate everything, i can understand that and that's their choice

#

so blame the users not them

timber hatch
#

It was apparently a dumb decision by the higher ups as a "potential legal concern", but all the active mods themselves were actively asking to keep them because there really was no issue.

umbral kite
#

oh i see, company are getting very afraid of community/legal backlash for barely nothing nowadays.... i was also sad about it, but make do with the others 2 discords

full zinc
#

considering ubi official discords for other games still have voice, it seems pretty targeted to the div community

umbral kite
#

oh is it true ? i didn't knew that

#

i must admit that's odd

full zinc
#

i checked a couple and some still had. but that was when they dropped them here. its been a minute since

broken solstice
#

man i never experienced any hostility from anyone in a voice chat.. except that one time in Dark Hours where I was shooting boomer's head while he was down on his knee, and this one dude told me that I was clueless as to how that sequence and raid worked. There were no ads in my zone either and he thought I was doing a totally wrong thing. he was so upset lol. and no i was not in a spot where i would be blocking my team mates shots

vapid umbra
#

The game itself is dead. for countdown easy to finde match up but for other raids no way to find a match up or it takes long time. And on normal mode for DH or IR is impossible cus u cant search for players and impossible to do it alone

broken solstice

tropic compass

Season reruns for year 6?

broken solstice
#

i hope not. but if you missed 'important' stuff from previous seasons i could see wanting that. i missed the latest apparel event completely so i hope they re-run that one eventually

umbral kite
tribal crescent
#

Is it smarter to sell or destroy equipment?

tender wave
#

depends where you are in the game and what you need - early on money might be useful but later mats from deconstruction will be more in demand, then you've also potentially got the option of donating junk to recal library or expertise

broken solstice
#

as an end-gamer i always sell named items i already have or don't want, and destroy everything else.

#

but early in the game i sold everything because it costs money to recalibrate and stuff and i get the materials i need for that from materials boxes/bags and from enemies dropping materials

What happened to all vc? Where are they?

qq, what's the difference between Mk16 and SOCOM Mk16? i see the base damage is the same between the two so probably mods?

kind veldt
#

might be mods or something smaller like one is more accurate but less stability and vice versa

broken solstice
#

those ARs are great for accuracy at long distance but i cant find any reason to use one.. with that rate of fire being low.

small spear
#

yeah i'm planning to use them in something like nego where rof doesn't matter too much

#

I wasted a lot already on WONY

#

I wonder if they'll increase the level cap again

kind veldt
#

Paid DLC is next year, no level cap increase

inner elbow
#

LV cap increase would mean builds will be redefined

kind veldt
#

they already said they are not doing that

inner elbow
#

Yeah would be a lot of work

hollow hill
#

I use the Socom Mk16 and found on spotter builds it hits harder than a kingbreaker

kind veldt
#

in builds that you are searching to squeeze damage per shot certainly slower rof weapons are more interesting

craggy ridge
#

Is anyone else randomly hitting high numbers with merciless? Im build testing right now and sometimes after triggering the explosion the next 6 or so shots hit 5-7 times higher then standard crit hits (900k crit, then jumps to 5-7 mill crit hits)

kind veldt
#

are you playing in the global event? is there a global event still going on?

craggy ridge
kind veldt
#

well i'm assuming you are not simply talking about the merciless talent explosion right?

craggy ridge
#

I do see the explosion damage, shows 2 instances of 1mill damage, what im talking about is randomly after that explosion I would get 6 or shots that are 5mill+

real creek
#

Yeah there is some bug with merciless but it's spotty and unreliable. If you're using it, it's not for its DPS so just have fun.

Playing with ppl that don't know how to transfer their Exposure, and just keep going down, really shows who's paying attention

the mechanic is janky anyway

hybrid ore

It's really not that hard, you just need to use a playstyle that gels well with cover-to-cover moves.

full zinc
#

yeah, it even indicates when you need a cover to cover or melee. the only ge i really dislike is guardians

undone timber
#

Guardians buff made it a lot more bearable

hybrid ore
#

Just a reminder of the SHD Exposed changes that we have with the current iteration of it:

• Stacks are acquired 50% faster.
• Double pulse radius.
• Players take 65% damage instead of 115% from pulsed enemies. Non-pulsed enemies still deal full damage.```
small spear

i did feel all of those changes. i kinda like it

#

Bot much depending the route you go with

hybrid ore
#

Proficiency is gained by just having something equipped, or donating excess copies or resources towards the total.

kind veldt

Would say just passively donating stuff you pickup is good enough

Named Items require 20 donated copies to go from Lvl 0 to 10 Proficiency.
Do not donate Exotics.

So, quite some time ago I found a chain link fence protecting loot. I'm almost certain this was in the NW of DC. So, I couldn't get to the loot but noticed either a rope or ladder that led down to it... I followed the building's corners and realized there was another building next to it, and a plank of wood was connecting two windows. I had to find my way into the first building, then move to a window, walk across the plank and into the other building...

#

The plank was NOT on top of the buildings, connected to the roofs. It went from a single window to another single window

Yeah absolutely no idea

Probably nothing special there anyway

Think it’s a box you shoot to open a gate then climb up on vents to get to the roof

#

Then drop down via rope to get the loot and open the gate.

Go back up to get into another loot room and go up an elevator shaft to get to another loot room

Yep, re-run the entire thing is the only way to get it. That is using "reset" from the Manhunt menu.

I disagree. It is very much possible. Complex? Lol.

lapis junco

impossible was never used a single time in anything I said

also if you think its easy. go take 7 randoms who have never done the raid before and go do IH without talking or typing

stuck sapphire
#

Yes. I want to do that. The people that want to do it will learn. Those who Don't get filtered.

#

You realize people trial and errored the raids at one point right?

#

People that want to queue with a full pre-made party can amd should. Just give People the option to queue with randoms. It's not Keener rocket science brother.

# stuck sapphire Yes. I want to do that. The people that want to do it will learn. Those who Don'...

That's not how raids work, especially talking about Iron Horse.
You cannot learn by yourself what to do with low shd agents that have not run the raid ever. You'd be trapped for hours at least in the Furnace.

So matchmaking is not a good option, imo, if you have no clue on what to do. Let me ask you something, did you learn by yourself how to make a build? No, you had to ask for help. Did you learn how to open the Ivory Chest? No, you had to search what to do to get the keys from others.
How is that any different?

stuck sapphire
#

I think some of y'all are definitely quite full of yourselves.

undone timber
#

You have 5 clearspetter

stuck sapphire
#

Does the amount of clears mean anything? If you can clear it once you can clear it several times.

undone timber
#

It means everything lol

#

More clears generally translates to more experience across multiple positions and knowledge of raid mechanics and spawns

#

I have around 60 now for IH and there's still a handful of positions I've never learnt to do yet

stuck sapphire
#

So if more people can match make and clear the raid. They'll do it more often with more efficiency. If you can clear a raid 60 times without knowing everything, then i think it's doable with randoms.

#

Like duh, more experience means more efficiency. I'm saying, allow more people to easily get it without the extra steps. The lot of you pre-matching with parties are not impacted in the slightest.

# undone timber Even on discovery IH is a train wreck

I can attest to this. I was one of the healers who tried a discovery raid. People matchmade, rage quit on the furnace part. I watched the entire lobby disband bc nobody knew what to do. Same for incursion, I ran it with 3 newbies, we couldn't even make it past the turrets. Matchmaking is a nice feature and I'm all for it, but it's just not efficient. You're better off doing LFG posts

#

I've only had 1 successful matchmake and that was with Incursion. They got stuck on wright. Showed em what to do, they did well. Lovebirds was also simple, I showed em the cursed gate strat. What woulda been an easy 10m run turned into an hour

Has anyone else noticed that when they upgraded the guns in the game that they've gradually been putting more and more enemies piling on while you're taking down a Control Point.

#

I am getting over run with enemies at every Control Point. There's Heavily armed patrol , Heavy and light convoys and more enemies on patrol and they

#

are all headed towards you

#

This is just Rainbow like Rainbow 6 Siege trying to get rid of people wanting to play that game singleplayer. They

#

They've done things to it to chase the singleplayer fan base away. All of it is push people to stop playing singleplayer.

#

My favorite now in Division 2 is shooting a grenadier in the face from 40 feet away and the grenadier while taking hits to the face throws a perfect grenade toss at you and it lands at your feet. Another thing I love is the ability of launched grenade being able to change it's course after you after it was launched.

@keen frost I don’t know how much effect gear has on enemies spawn rate, but there’s been some awful spawns for quite sometime now. you can also be experiencing enemies basically “tping” around (might have been patched but that was an issue for me a few months ago), basically what happens is that when they aren’t in a players fov they can move extremely fast and i absolutely hated it whenever that would happen cause my rear would be clear 1 sec then get pegged by 3 hyena batons the next sec.
Before doing control points while on challenging, are you doing linked linked obj and ranking it up to heroic without realizing?

I cleard the sector first. Then the emp jammer was in the open with cover outside the proximity which got me killed.

There was no cover near the jammer. Also it would be nice if the jammer would do hostiles some damage as well but i guess they have plot armor lol.

The EMP jammer hits us because of our SHD tech and the SCAN-tek eyes, stuff like that.

in terms of raids, game still struggles ot find excuse to make peopel do different builds

#

people have developed niche builds to speedrun raids

#

only IH really needs a couple of tanks/healers for the finale mostly

stuck sapphire

Raids should be balanced to be completed within a certain set of parameters. They can't really lock classes like most traditional raids do. I feel like maybe they'll use a lot of feedback for any future raids.

i mean anything but raw DPS is not needed for DH

Yeah. That's kinda bad design imo.

kind veldt
#

IH mechanics are mostly about coordination so a person build is irrelevant (once again until the end)

stuck sapphire
#

It just becomes a DPS slog and people start getting outed for playing other builds. I feel like most raids should invovle a mix of all "classes."

kind veldt
#

this is not ot dunk on them being easy and people can just do whatever, just that they still struggle ot make peopel play anything but DPS or create cenarios that make healers and tanks interesting to play, mostly because there are flaws on hte game design with those roles

#

stolen signal had tank checks and made healers also valuable

elfin hazel

I think there needs to be more missions where skills play a roll

problem is how do you make skills interact better with stuff

Yeah. Division 2 does raids weird compared to like MMOs for example. It's strange. They should take a bit of notes from Destiny in that regard. The only thing Destiny can do right is raids.

well to start less maruaders & emps in levels is a good starting point

kind veldt
#

oxidizer to hit a switch behind cover? have to use incendiary skill to set arena in fire to force a boss to relocate and start DPS phase?

stuck sapphire
#

They make mechanics that need people with a general build set. Like maybe for 1 part of the raid 2 tanks would be needed, also maybe 2 skill builds would be needed in another area.

elfin hazel
#

I mean the incendiary part is pretty much in the game already

#

its just in the one place people care about the least

I feel like it do be toats possible to do. I would love to see how they would do it.

kind veldt

i mean we do have some gimmicky fights in kenly with that, wright is a good example of gimmick boss that works for this game but doesnt work for the weird "people need to have different roles" that raids usually are

stuck sapphire
#

Fair enough. They should throw out more of those gimmick bosses tbh. Definitely get rid of immune phases though. Let people who build raw damage feel it.

#

Instead give bosses more skills to sustain. I think it would be neat.

elfin hazel
#

nerfing things like strikers and making skills do something special to enemies of certain types could work

#

almost all of the skills I feel aren't used that much outside of the obvious ones

kind veldt
#

well skills dont do much other than CC or alternative way to do damage

#

so hard to find something ot make interesting

#

could make a weird battle that you have to constnatly keep eletricity going by dumping shock traps and baiting enemies into walking into them in a zone to complete a circuit

stuck sapphire
#

I mean. Nerfing strikers and other builds like it won't do much of anything. They are on the right path when they massively buffed yellow builds. They need to make other gear sets more desirable.

timber hatch

The raids are the one thing in the game that really requires/rewards build variety. They are the least "just DPS" thing in the game even if there are still plenty of DPS roles

but also most of the content doesn’t force min max so it’s people forcing a single build bc op which personally isn’t for me lady death fury bis

#

not enough fun solo content, can only really use meta in multiplayer

small spear
#

if you're purposefully doing hard content like legendary or incursion you basically signed up for doing them

timber hatch
torpid ore
#

i mean being unable to really use unique builds that arent all red elmos/scorpio/ourobouros/etc without getting outpaced by the rest of the lobby and hardly getting any use out of it. at least thats my usual experience unless its an organized group with specific roles (incursion is good for that ngl). maybe i just suck but being swayed into using the top tier exotics is not great for the game

small spear
#

so you're asking for all builds to be the same level as "all red elmos/scorpio/ouro" so you don't get outpaced?

torpid ore
#

not necessarily, moreso have missions be more adaptable to other build types instead of being so easily ran through with those builds

spring hare

#

The raids are really the best example in the game where "just use strikers" is the least true. Like you can use strikers all the way through, but that means others will be doing the other roles that require specific builds. I get not everyone is doing this, but I've literally got builds specific for each boss/role for each raid, all tuned for what exactly that fight requires. And out of all those builds, 1 of them us strikers

small spear
#

^^^^^^ and also true in legendary. the "all red striker elmo" isn't actually the best build for that either

timber hatch
#

Strikers is obviously good, but there's way too many people in here that are really overrating it

small spear
#

that said, it working in pretty much all content isn't a bad thing, because it means people always have a build to rely on, but thinking that it's the best or most effective build ever is just... wrong

elfin hazel
#

tbqh I don't think whether or not a build performs well in raids/legendary is that big of a factor since the majority of the playerbase likely isn't touching them and even if they have probably only once or twice

torpid ore
elfin hazel
#

how it effects the general build diversity and gameplay in countdown/summit and challenging/heroic matters way more for typical gameplay/most of the playerbase

torpid ore
#

but ik other players are gonna have different experiences so i could be way off the bigger picture

small spear
elfin hazel
#

I like to use sniper builds but because DPS is the way that it is I find myself playing solo more so when I ask a friend to play I feel I ditch my sniper builds because what point is a sniper build if things die quicker than the time it takes between shots

#

theres always going to be staple/meta builds thats just how gear based games are its more so a matter of how does everything else stack up to that staple build

#

a random collection of dps gear pieces ninjabike backpack & all can work therefor its not "bad" but compared to the current staple build of strikers it gets shot down every single time

#

most people will see HIGHEST DPS BUILD EVER 100000% ARMOR & HEALTH REGEN stuff from youtubers when looking for builds in this game and will go with whatever is "strongest"

small spear
#

also, the common playerbase will of course run the most popular builds, with small variations here or there, because it's common sense, they will sooner or later learn of the "most versatile" builds to get first before going on to find more niche/higher skill floor builds, it's just reality

elfin hazel
#

I disagree with the last part because of the versatility of strikers

Hello
I have the delta 3 error
I played a couple of days ago and everything was fine with the game. Now I enter and I have like 2 fps per second. Then I get the delta error. How can it be fixed?

small spear
#

yeah i mean if they even bother to get those builds

elfin hazel
#

I'd try turning dx12 off if you have it on

hidden marlin
small spear
#

my main point was people gravitating towards the most versatile build is completely understandable. whether people stick around long enough to get more builds depends on them

torpid ore
elfin hazel
#

nerfing strikers in my view is more so to bring it down so that the temptation of other builds is there

small spear
#

yeah i get that too, many of my friends who play this game casually just got striker elmo and stopped playing because they just saw everything

elfin hazel
#

most of the people I played with stopped before strikers 💀

elfin hazel
timber hatch
#

There was a time when everyone thought HF was the only thing worth running. High end before that. Now it's strikers.

small spear
#

it just depends on what kind of player they are at the start. i do have some friends who stick around to this day just because they enjoy the hard content, and they speedrun with me. but obviously that isn't the common playerbase, i don't really want that to be the case either.

#

it's funny if you look at the usage of M1A that was the meta, other things just got super buffed and it kinda got forgotten

also some stuff just look shinier than others even if they're not necessarily better

there's already a ton of good weapons to run and people just run elmo because funny red gun

#

The standard obliterate or intimidate version is at least on par with strikers. The HH version is one of if not the strongest build in the game, but so few people even know about it

torpid ore
#

very little consistency in exotics unfortunately

elfin hazel
#

makes me : ( whenever I see it shot down

#

yea its bad cus no backpack talent but its cool !

small spear
#

which is sad, because i do want to see them more used

elfin hazel
#

I want to see things other than elmo/regulus/scorpio

torpid ore
#

tbf regulus is rly fun and more involved

elfin hazel
#

make eagle bearer "good" (it still is good I think people who say its bad and only good for the stash overexaggerate it like crazy) again but dont revert it to what it once was thats lazy and dumb

umbral kite
#

eagler bearer quite good i use it often

small spear
#

it's very very good right now

#

not like pre-wony good but still

#

i think the general messaging of the game just points to "exotic? rare? must get!" which gets new players a lot

torpid ore
#

the red is just so pretty

small spear
#

yeah it's not really the player's fault

elfin hazel
#

the fun part about never experiencing pre rework eagle bearer is just being completely confused by the people who are still upset about the rework

torpid ore
#

shit like the rugged gauntlets pisses me off tho

like how out of touch can the devs be to make something so ass

well they said, experimental stuff

#

still good awful tho and shouldnt be in the game

#

istg if they try and add another grenade based exotic without buffing grenades im rioting

#

i dont think i or any other player has gotten a grenade kill since the game came out

stuck sapphire
#

Make a gear set centered around grenades. Have them trap and pull multiple enemies. De-buffs and status procs.

kind veldt
#

well explosive based gear set could work, there are more weird mechanics they could try

#

one of the old suggestions for OD was to replace granade with ammo box on a cooldown, just straight up drop special ammo for you and teamates on demand by replacing your granade (since not many people used them)

It's super exciting. I'm excited. But year Six season 2 is gonna be even better. Year Six Season 2: "I hope you like Striker" is all about adding 2 new gear sets and 3 new brand sets that remove around gameplay mechanics that arent feasible above Challenging difficulty

Whoever has the ability to add and remove enemy has ruined the game for me. I can not get take control of any control point.

#

Impossible to do and who'e idea was it to put so many enemy on the map that magically appear 30-40 feet away which is right on top of you . They only spawn behind you every time.

Much better than running around an empty map. It actually makes open world more interesting and helps add a bit of a difficulty increase.

All guns should be accessible in PVE. There is no valid excuse for it not to be that way.

lunar hare
#

Pay for weapons? At the Division?

kind veldt
#

what are is not accessible? because even raids are PVE content

keen frost

They're paying a group on the internet to play with their game and get them weapons that are only available in big multiplayer missions.

you mean people selling boost/carry services? well thats just against the rules but it happens, like bots selling stuff in any MMO

The big mission at the airport that's the type of mission where you get some of the guns in game.

Dark hours? Idk any airport

keen frost

Yes, you sign up and tell them what you want. They access your game play a the really hard missions, get the gun that you're after and tell you to login and you'll see the gun in your inventory

That's from the community, not Ubisoft.

I've spent as long as 40 minutes on a single Challenging Control Point. I did not complete it . It was as a result of these enemy that spawn right on top of you.

I have finished 2 countdown runs and it didnt dropped oke single exotic gun. Am i doing something wrong?

It's rng, but 2 runs without an exotic drop is going to be common. You can also spend your countdown credits on exotic caches

Most of the exotics I'd say would come from the purchasable exotic caches but keep your chin up and pray RNGesus smiles upon you

Yeah that's normal then. Make sure you are buying exotic caches at the cd vendor. That's generally what makes cd a good exo farm. Drop chance is lower, but as long as you are completing you'll have an exo cache every 2 runs.

Also depends what you select as tl

sniper rifles are the best category for exotic mat farming in cd

In dark zone all I get is ninjabike knees or pestilence

one day ill get that dopamine rush from a eb drop

I have all raid exotics except for regulus, I mostly farm dz in hopes of having an eagle drop or seeing ravenous drop

#

Just to say I got it to drop

river eagle
#

i didnt start doing raids until recently

hollow hill
#

Honestly if I do get it to drop, I'll probably go find a PvE player and have him kill me and then let them extract with the weapon lol

river eagle
#

i have all the other exotics except for raid and iron lung idk how that evaded me

#

exactly what i would do if i had it already

hollow hill
#

I do raids pretty frequently, so far I've dropped 2 eagles and 3 Ouro's

#

Only did iron horse once, pulled my own rav on my FTC

river eagle
#

if you ever want someone to farm dz with lmk, basically all i do nowadays

#

thats nice

#

sucks for regulus you have to run it multiple times

hollow hill
#

I'll get regulus some other time. IH is an annoying raid to do. Way too many moving parts

river eagle
#

yeah dh is super easy

#

basically just a dps check

hollow hill

Pretty much, it's very beginner friendly as well. I could easily take a full team of FTC's and clear it just fine

#

Iron Horse, oh boy. More than 1 FTC and it's a drag

100% agree we had 3 the last time i did it it was a nightmare
