i got into a us server recently and saw a clan mate I wasn't already grouped with for the first time
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.
well you are the sheriff
Does consoles also have connectivity issues?
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
Not a joke. We do want to leave.
starting from scratch on console really shows how unplayable this game is for new players 😭
grinding countdown hundreds of times
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.
but you're on pc
true.. i started div 2 before the cd nerf and when floor 10 was around and now that it’s gone this grind is miserable
its easier than it's ever been rn
you can get geared up and ready to rumble in a handful of countdown runs
nah floor 10 and pre nerf cd was the easiest
what nerf to cd?
when did cd get nerfed
I think they mean no cheesing with the starting Hunters, which just ruined everyone elses game.
basically every mob would drop loot it was crazy
when u're fed, but not taught how to fish
no? only change was that initial hunters no longer drop them but exit hunters drop more
oh maybe i misunderstood that drop nerf then
yeah people would kill the initial hunters and quit
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.
i remember that was annoying af
which made excessive amount of incomplete games that left people mad and take up server space
i’m only on console for the pvp which means shd 1000 and at least level 10-12 expertise
i do got a lot of end games builds done already
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...
oh dear oh god
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
That was funny though
finally got my elmo
Which sniper would you advise for a striker elmo-acs build ?
In case I wanna take down some VERY far enemies
don't recommend snipers for striker builds, it's best that you just use elmo anyway
Mostly a third weapon... or fourth if you count the handgun
I certainly won't use it often, so it's mostly just incase
Can someone help me find snitch to buy textiles cache?
"snitch" ?
WHO'S SNITCHING ?
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
i love coming back from a hiatus and theres been zero crash fixes
i generaly use the american history museum mission fast travel, the snitch is just a couple of steps away from this point and in the open (at the circle a bit down to the left of the mission point)
i've been back from a 18month hiatus a month ago, never had a crash 🤞
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.
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...
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 :'/
hey should i choose the division 2 as my main game cause i want a new main game?
why not? what are you looking for?
it's pretty good
really?
It's very much not similar to des2, just a heads up.
yes it's quite different indeed, still a looter-shooter but different yeah
but i search for third person mmo loot
playstyle is very different, skill ceiling is fairly high and skill floor is decently average, so you can take your time mastering the game
i know
Ok I need some elaborations here
movement is very very different
I started watching NGN and is it true?
enemies and you shoot hitscan bullets in this game, so you can't dodge and weave bullets
i created a agent before
Can we actually hack some warhounds to our side?
i play now
Des2 is a power fantasy game, div2 is more of a tactical shooter.
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
it's very much not so, you have lots of endgame content
raids?
you can also make the game as hard and as easy as you want
raids, incursion, legendary, any open world activity
you sure you repaired/reinstalled the correct libs ? can you share the error message ?
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
Hello, can you play PC and PS5 crossplay here?
no-crossplay
you can one tap npcs, do speedrunning, do legendaries
No, PC is with PC players only PlayStation PlayStation and Xbox with Xbox
cause im a top 150 destiny 2 speedrunner
speedrunning in this game is very different
In this top 150 means you're ass lol
People only care if you're in the top 10 maybe 20 depending on content
Yeah so i mean with that that i want in Division 2 Speedruns
Hello it says vendor is closed opens in 4 hours and 30 min. How long is the vendor open?
?
Cassie and Danny, I'm pretty sure for a few hours at a time, I think 12 max?
I don't know in depth how often they stay open, just on Tuesdays they both reset
So probably i cant buy named iteam cache and optimization cache so on its random each week?
When WR zoo?
never
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
You mean the third attribute? That one can be rerolled at the bottom of the crafting station
First 2 attributes
Best roll is DTTOOC (dmg to target out of cover)
Those cant be changed afaik.
You cannot recalibrate exotics core attributes.
First two are static, weapon damage and weapon unique attribute
well its not all that dissimilar
both are based around dodging and cover, understanding enemy behaviors, mechanics, and how your own gear interacts with them
that describes basically every MMORPG in existance
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
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
both are shooting games where gear is everything, skill is a must, and a lack of knowledge is death, you have core abilities that can be swapped about at will provided they arent on cooldown, and tanking can work if your gear fits it
this is still describing a million games
in that sense the only thing tarkov is missing is abilities to be similar to div 2
i mean, shooter MMO's are all real similar imo
im just saying if you wanna compare 2 games you gotta be alot more specific. your thinking very general
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
one is halo, other is cover shooter diablo
There's not really anything quite like the division
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
you could try the verify files option in ubisoft connect
thank you
anyone know where the snitch is this week?
Can you buy emperor Guard kneepads from cassie if she has?
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)
I can get emperor Guard kneepads from Danny since he sometimes has named iteam cache right?
yes, named item caches can drop any named items
But cassie does not sell named iteam cache?
cassie doesn’t danny does
cassie just sells named items and danny sells named item caches
I thought since i have 6000 texstiles left i thought i could buy as many i can at Danny
pretty sure he sells 3 a week
Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday. I hoped he would be there everyday
Nope, he has the same cycle as Cassie. Appears for 24 hours then disappears for 36 houts
Also his wares don't restock
you know you can spam countdown and buy as many named caches as you have credits for, right?
I buy from countdown named caches
is there any voice channels for raids on this server ?
nope, you have to look at the community discord or gcrock discord, ubi removed the voice channels here
Nice upgrade for their server, but they are killing their game with their own hands. I like how they developed it, though.
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
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.
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
considering ubi official discords for other games still have voice, it seems pretty targeted to the div community
i checked a couple and some still had. but that was when they dropped them here. its been a minute since
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
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
GCrock discord for raids
Look there u see 3 people in voice chat only
dang
Ingame voice chat is dead if i hear someone using the mic in game i really feel happy like i found 8 exotic in one run
yeah me too. im permabanned from another channel where people go to use voice chat. luckily i can just create a private call and talk to people that way
Season reruns for year 6?
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
GCrock is no the main, you have to look at the community division server this is were the action is, remember that it's a work day today + most of the playerbase that is US are still sleeping right now, it's much more active in the evening, but of course you don't have hundreds of thousands of players anymore, but there still a pretty healthy player base after 5years
Is it smarter to sell or destroy equipment?
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
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?
ubi deleted them cause people bad
Could be a good build up for the season 3, season 1 contains year 2 manhunts, season 2 contains year 4? manhunts and then season 3 straight to the Brooklyn dlc
Toxic gamers? In a looter shooter? That's... impossible...
new to the game any advice where to get stuff for a good build
what kind of content / build are you targeting ? have you looked ?
nope i just want to deal damage
yeah striker is a good start indeed
and pretty easy to farm by doing countdown with targeted loot
i have no idea wwhat im looking at
what is countdown
it's an activity you can matchmake for from map
last 15mn and with a good group you get quite a bit of loot
your build for dealing damage
it's bread and butter
those pieces and guns are all farmed from countdown
I am quite early lvl 19 so probabl sell
yeah, it's useful to be able to buy new weapons on occasion when you're levelling
Well tomorrow is finally the day we get the final descent comm and after that we are finally unshackled from the weekly descent grind
a
qq, what's the difference between Mk16 and SOCOM Mk16? i see the base damage is the same between the two so probably mods?
might be mods or something smaller like one is more accurate but less stability and vice versa
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.
yeah i'm planning to use them in something like nego where rof doesn't matter too much
i love my AK with OD
yeah that probably fits with negoshiatrix dilemon
yeah. i have one with strained and it hits hard once you get those strained stacks up
Ig new set that's incoming? 😆
i sure hope so. or i just cant spell
Dont fix it
Whats the diff between do not disturb vs private party mode?
In both modes other cannot join my party by any means?
Do not disturb is to not receive any invites. Private party is so no one can join your session.
Is the incursion chest weekly too?
yes but resets on monday for whatever reason
Any news on TU21 release?
When this Season ends, so it's going to be at least a week or more away.
When news is posted in one of the "Announcements" channels, we'll know
another paid DLC?
I wasted a lot already on WONY
I wonder if they'll increase the level cap again
Paid DLC is next year, no level cap increase
LV cap increase would mean builds will be redefined
they already said they are not doing that
Yeah would be a lot of work
It hits stupid hard on spotter builds. It also hits hard with in sync
I use the Socom Mk16 and found on spotter builds it hits harder than a kingbreaker
in builds that you are searching to squeeze damage per shot certainly slower rof weapons are more interesting
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)
are you playing in the global event? is there a global event still going on?
Event is still ongoing for about 7 and a half hours, im playing with it inactive atm.
well i'm assuming you are not simply talking about the merciless talent explosion right?
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+
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.
Heads up: the Global Event ends today. Spend your "Stars" at the Season Vendor before the reset!
Wait wut GE is going on ?
shd exposed
Good to know I am not missing some good event 
I already have lost like 500+ stars if I think about it
let me guess
Golden Bullet.
I have quit playing division btw 
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
It's really not that hard, you just need to use a playstyle that gels well with cover-to-cover moves.
yeah, it even indicates when you need a cover to cover or melee. the only ge i really dislike is guardians
Guardians buff made it a lot more bearable
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.```
i did feel all of those changes. i kinda like it
Golden Bullet is superior c:
Of course it is, it's just free damage with basically no downside.
but that doesn't mean the others aren't a nice change of pace.
Try meelee legendary NPCs
Kinda disappointed how the devourer was the climax of the manning zoo
PSA: you've got about 30 minutes from the time of this message to spend your Global Event stars before the reset.
The Year 1 Bundle says it unlocks all specializations instantly. Does that mean I unlock Gunner / Technician / Firewall instantly with all upgrade points available?
does anybody know that?
It just means you don't have to complete the field research challenges before you can activate them: you'll still have to earn all the points, even with a boosted character
Just for sure, what i know that if you buy just open & must do field research
You still have the option of doing the field research but instead of unlocking the spec it just gives you extra cosmetic rewards
Unlocked, but no points to allocate, you get 3 per level for each specialisation that is equipped. The rewards for the specials are still locked, you must still do the specials rewards to craft the named items for your table of expertise. I would not buy it because of this.
Ahh alright alright, thanks for the input!
The main draws are the premium track and the classified assignments
Premium tracker was only for the first year, you no longer get that anymore
Where's the quartermaster in the base?
What for?
oh thats that guy?
As you walk in, on your left
It's still there under field research
You’ve lost me, what tracker are you referring to?
Finally! The descent weekly grind is over ⛓️
Ubisoft servers are offline or what? I can't turn on ubisoft launcher
should be fine. there was an update for ubi connect app. im able to log without issue. probably restart the rig
i removed all ubisoft folders from appdata folder and later reinstalled ubisoft connect launcher and still nothing
nevermind
no clue then. you may need to put in a ticket or something. #unofficial-troubleshooting has links to that in pins
somehow launcher works... wow...
Grand Washington Hotel is invaded this week.
Perfect week to start the Nemesis project, or get that blueprint you been waiting for.
After you get the tidal basin piece , change mode for Manning back to invaded and complete again for another piece. with 2 pieces in hand set GWH back to invaded and the blueprint will drop. Nemesis can be farmed from MMR TL after that regardless of project completion.
Can someone tell me please if there was a maintenance/update today?
No update, there's only really one every now and then.
When there is, #server-status or channels near it will list something.
there was an update of the ubisoft launcher today but not for the game
Thanks you @hybrid ore @umbral kite
howhard is getting proficiency
Bot much depending the route you go with
Proficiency is gained by just having something equipped, or donating excess copies or resources towards the total.
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.
Got stuck in an IH raid by total mistake...
Why does the game want me to join it despite me matchmaking a CD ?!
What apparel is selling in store now? Still kelso?
Addition-Weapons also 20per
Crafted improvised gear 20 per
Can craft weapons to donate* if excess materials.
Weapons and skills are the biggest wall to overcome
Ubisoft is down?
nope, there is an update of the ubi launcher, restart it
Yeah I just had to restart to finish the update and I'm on
Should I try xdefiant? Anyone have an opinion on it?
I think you should just play it and see if you have fun. Don't worry about what others think.
Good call. Ill give it a go
it's okay, hitreg being funky for the first week was it's biggest issue
It is a decent FPS. Nothing amazing about it but nothing inherently bad about it other than no skill based matchmaking. It is nothing super special but it's entertaining if you like FPS games
its pretty enjoyable for what it is
it's halfway in between COD and hero shooter wannabe, main game modes are objective based but play mostly as COD with very few abilities
I am really just salty they killed heartland to support it
kinda grindy and lacking in content on release
the decision regarding heatlands and xdefiant is a weird one but for another day
oh and snipers OP
If the movement and shooting feels good I'll might just like it but I haven't played an FPS since metro exodus
Oh I'm gonna die a lot
headshots dont appear to do much for most weapons so simply going for high rof or stability seems to pay off better
LMGs surprisingly good in some game modes
Cool thanks for the tip
hello! anyone know if i use some vpn like exitlag, can i get less "Delta-03" errors? i returned to the game 2 days ago and still get 2 o 3 of those per hour
Unsure on that one in particular, but I use a VPN and it's working just fine.
Just take a bit after you activate, before opening the game.
thank you very much ❤️
With a VPN active and without it active, I have the same amount of deltas. Essentially zero. Do you have a stable reliable internet connection that behaves normally in every other scenario?
anyone need help with missions or wanna farm mh dz?
Hello recherche clan actif sur TD2 me mp svp.
Looking for people on PC who want to farm SHD levels. Currently at 420. Pushing for 1000. Currently doing heroic 4 directive control points. But its a struggle some times solo.
anyone found cassie or naw?
shop's not active yet, 14h ish
is it always wednesday she activates?
She will open in 14 hours and she is in foggy bottom close to the safe house
alright, thank you
yep, no packet loss, and no problem with other games
Hmm well that's good. I have no other ideas about how to solve your problem
we both lol
i never uninstalled the game since first come out tho, maybe trying a clean install?
trying random things now idk
yeah or you could use the verify files thing in ubi connect. but i cant remember if its even worth it bc it takes a while and you might as well just use that time for a clean install
since when can rogue agents spawn during a main mission???
since WONY
i was vibin during my run and heard rogue agents and was like nah no way and got blasted cause i had no foam equopped but was a shit location tbf inside the coney island haunted house
welcome to WONY 😂
that 2 year or so break really made me wipe all the stuff i knew and what to expect xd
it was released 4y ago 😂
no wait... was it ? rechecking...
march 2020, no it was that old ahah
damn... how time fly
Any guesses of when kenly college might be open next?
Probably not this season. I think it opens with new manhunt targets but those are all done. You can check the season track to see if it does tho.
Thank you
is it possible to get dz exclusive named items off the hunters in countdown
hunters no, named caches yes
Is it not on like a bi-weekly schedule? It does seem to be closed anytime I check it though
just to add to above, sometimes dz exclusives will go on sale at the countdown vendor as well
i think kenly is more 2 weeks out, 1 week in
No, as souless said it's only available on weeks when a new seasonal manhunt target becomes available
Its like they don't want people to play kenly college lol
Anyone here?
This is the season end, no one will be here that much.
Finally, I got the last intel of descent mode
:0
Neither do we
Boring ass game mode
It seems I only need this item Barrel- The Scourge 00/01 Do you know how to get it?
Thx for the reminder btw
manning will drop a random piece if its first time to complete it this week
I just did manning right now
I went to the crafting table and I have everything except that
so I can't craft it because of that missing piece
Do I need to do manning again?
welp, thatll be next time capital is invaded then
oh so I need capitol building right?
if you already got a random piece from manning so itll be capital or manning in a following week. whichever comes first
Oh gotcha I'll have to wait or that one then Thank you!
but if you have the blueprint you can target farm mmr now and get a nemesis drop
Where do you farm it countdown?
just make sure to put it on an alt next time one of those 2 strongholds is invaded you can get the part and finish
is nemesis better than model 700?
anywhere mmr is target . ive had quite a few drop from cd tho
Oh awesome! Will do that
its more damage, but doesnt have the ability to use determined
alot of time its used to start a chain since it has a lot higher damage then swapping to something thats faster
anytime🍻
Anyone here?
Ye
@undone timber Awesome! I'm desperately trying to locate a specific spot in the game. Do you know the map well?
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
I don't recall what exactly was in there, but that's not the point. It was sort of like a puzzle to get to it, and I'd like to show some friends. Well, thanks anyway. I'll see it again eventually.
New York.
If you enjoy puzzles you might be interested in the hunter riddles
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
Nvm you said nw dc.
I've completed all of those, lol!
And the hydden hotels, plus the two additional messages and decoded them.
Perhaps the morovian society Easter egg?
I know that one, but never actually performed it. Too much time for too little reward.
I love open world loot crates
TFW the cp crate drops all purples
I got a god rolled 5.11 pcs from one awhile ago
When do the changes to system corruption take effect and what were the actual changes please
I saw the tweak photo but couldn’t remember what the previous talent was
bra wtf kelso is rogue now lol
the community was memeing when they said dev would make kelso rogue
more u play more u learn.the guide rabbit holes goes deeper as u explore. better play missions with randoms( sometime it will be frustrating to come across in-experienced players). inspect their builds how they play. make it as your advantage.
i just have no idea what missions to play. i got the game yesterday and grinded out all the story so i can hit 40 but now i have no clue
the elmo rifle seems good because i keep getting demolished in DZ
if u want to grind some gear for builds i might help u if u want to
i can guide u
Could someone put that "i'm not gonna sugarcoat it" meme with the cluster Mine on videos where it explodes, i will see whatever monstrosity y'all create lol
There's multiplayer but i remembered that you need the DLC nowadays to use that feature
yeah i finished the main story in like 12 hours so i got the dlc and finished it
i did like 2 matchmade challenge countdowns but i have no clue what is good and what isnt
You're saying about builds?
yeah like here
oh wait cant send images
well yeah i have no idea what guns are good and everything feels like a peashooter
On #td2-build-advice there's a link to basic builds that work
do i get less loot drops if i play on a lower difficulty? (i am trying to get copies of weapons for proficiency)
I think so
Unless you fight hunters
Still better loot/min if you just do countdown on challenging tho.
The Ouroboros stock should be unfolded when in use, why is it still folded?
to make it visually distinct
anyone knows how to get last audio in manhunt? i have right now 25/26 and already re-walkthrough final mission twice, but didn't get last audio
Stocks are for people with skill issues 🤠 no stock gang wya
modern warfare 19 players have the answer
I think you need to rerun the manhunt afaik
Yep, re-run the entire thing is the only way to get it. That is using "reset" from the Manhunt menu.
It also gives you a BP trophy.
-_- thank you devs (no), i remember this bug exists in last season, but they fixed it then
It doesn't appear to be a bug. Since it rewards you 2 separate things.
I didnt have to redo mine to get everything though I did re run the final mission
its weird
Finally got a st elmos!
I doubt they intended to force everyone to rerun the entire manhunt, I'd call it a bug
defo gonna try and get a better stat version, but i got one finally 😄
It is common enough an issue that it feels more like its intended, but if some people did happen to get lucky then just take that as a win.
Or a feature 
Wait we can react in this channel
yeah we got a stealth buff to gen chat
Use it wisely.
I reset the manhunt then answered a backup call to the final mission. And it worked. I guess you could say I any%'ed the manhunt
Imagine the next time you logon and they've removed the BP trophy out of spite lol.
😭
Not bad. 3 exotic caches at Danny weaver
got an vile out of a conflict cache earlier and was stunned
you got a status effect, don't let it kill you
😵💫
Is there a way to open mutiple Standard Apparel Cache at one?
no
We should ask them to add taht function xd
pretty much everyone wants it atp
I hope they do it in the next updates, I dont think it takes a lot of programing
why is in game chat entirely in chinese
spambots
how can i get access to countdown game mode? The mission is always only marked as manhunt mission on my map. I played the manhunt mission and saved this dude from the fire. Did i miss something?
there are two icons in there no?
you could use the matchmaking menu to select countdown
Only the manhunt symbol. Manhunt menue shows the manhunt as "completed". Could use matchmake yes but then I am not able to choose selected loot.
Pretty sure you have to do the DZ recon missions first.
do I forgot to speak to any irrelevant side character or anything?
pls no.
It's ez bro.
i made a huge way around the darkzones so far.
It's a single player thing. Not actual DZ stuff.
swear me?
On Bird shots life.
fml. fine. Thanks dude. Will complete darkzone recon missions and try again.
You got this bro. Another thing checked off the list too.
Guess life is pretty cheap around here
Method 1- Map > matchmaking > countdown > challenging
Method 2 - goto chopper outside whitehouse, talk to pilot and select countdown (only do this if you want to be party lead)
You can select loot for summit and it doubles as countdown target 😉
only 33 more until 4500 : )
looks + vector doesnt really need a stock unless you prefer using it
(almost everyone prefers using it but hey)
i think it'd look better with the stock unfolded too
yea they way it looks folded doesn't bother me or anything. its not like you're going to be looking at your gun while you're in battle
you were right with that dude. Thanks alot. I completed the darkzone recon missions and now the countdown symbol is visible on the main map. Like....why?! It does not make any sense why the countdown symbol and the dz recon missions should be connected lol
Hey Odder, Souless, .drib, Rivens, Ducks, Kettle, Local
Good afternoon Saph
hey Saph
it's just a weird random thing, dz recon missions have been around since forever (although they did used to be bigger and actually require you to go into the DZs), while countdown was only added a few seasons ago, there's really no reason why they'd be linked
Ngl it's always cool seeing the dark hours plane flying in the start of the raid
Anyone down to farm dark zone?
why is no one lfg in raid channel
cuz no one is currently looking for a raid in this server
probably because there are no VC anymore. a lot of the raid lfg stuff happens on the community discord now
You’d think with 110k people you could find 8 people 💀
higher up genius move ig
do a search for the division, community will be the one with close to 80k members
I don't care how "hard" people think those raids are. They should allow matchmaking for raids.
how many raid clears on normal have you done?
None. Cause i can't queue for it.
Please do go on a tanget about skill issues and mechanics. That's generally what someone who asks that question usually goes on. Yada yada.
xbox has a matchmaking/lfg system, thats how most people on xbox group up. If you do a few runs you'll understand
I shouldn't have to use outside of the game sources. Just let me queue for the raid. It's that simple.
its not an outside thing
you need xbox live to play them anyways, you already have it
Ye
For clarification guys. I'm not discounting the difficulty of the raid. I think it's bungie that people can't queue for it. I think some peeps just like sitting on a high horse or something.
My man you are on xbox
You can create an xbox group post
It takes like, 2 minutes to set up without having to join a discord or anything
I can just imagine the sheer amount of whining people will do over randoms in a raid
So?
(its kinda a valid reason why random Q for raids doesnt exist. raids are too complex to do it with complete randoms who may or may not talk at all)
xbox group and other sources is way easier and more effective
I disagree. It is very much possible. Complex? Lol.
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
should be easy if raids arent complex at all
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.
its also not keener rocket science to acknowledge that there is a valid reason behind it not existing even if youd want it to exist
You want to do that because you have not done them yet. Go matchmake few raids and you'll understand
with 7 other random people with zero communication. Nah no one did that
75% of people leave in legendary after the first wipe. imagine a raid
Time have you done the in game matchmaking discovery raids at least?
That's their problem. Also yes, i've done it like 5 times.
I wouldnt mind match making either btw. It would be nice when you need 1-2 more and dont really care if they do more then just ad clearing. I also know that theres a very valid reason matchmaking isnt a thing for raids
it becomes your problem with you cant run the raid cuz 5 people left after the first wipe
Match making will fill those spots
and now your teaching boomer to another 5 people who rage quit when they dont get it right the first time. cycle continues
this is how legendary goes and leg is literally just point and click
Not everyone rages
last time I checked 5/8 isnt everyone
I think i know why those people left.
So do I, I live in your walls
#rentfree
You haven't done all the roles then
To even think about doing it with 7 FTCs you need to know it inside and out
And even with 3 FTCs it can be annoying
If you try doing diagnostics or control room you'll see why random mm isn't something people would benefit from
Not to mention staggering requiring the ravenous
And a bunch of specialized builds FTCs won't have
That reminds of people saying avengers had some though raids
Anyone know where snitch is currently?
a bunch of locations. its random. lookup a guide and pick one of the spots to check. if snitch isnt there relog and check the spot again. chances youll get him first time checking
🙏 thanks
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?
I think some of y'all are definitely quite full of yourselves.
You have 5 clears
Does the amount of clears mean anything? If you can clear it once you can clear it several times.
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
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.
On discovery
imagine
I can clear 60 times without knowing everything because there are people in my group with exponentially more who know exactly what they're doing
Multiple people
more often? I just checked xbox lfg and I've already seen 6 groups looking for IH.
I don't particularly like the Xbox LFG crowd but if you simply want the good stuff they're right there
Ugh. Imagine getting carried and then bragging about 60 clears. /s
I want. The. Systems. To be. In game.
I'm not getting carried I'm learning lmao
You don't learn a role by doing it once and being done with it lol
Takes practice
i do agree that that matchmaking not being in the game is bad, and i think discovery mode is even worse by not teaching mechanics
How pessimistic do you have to be to say stuff like that?
MM normal mode just isn't realistic
Even on discovery IH is a train wreck
No pun intended
Ye. That's what i'm saying
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
Hi, is the division 2 cannot login now?
When do incursion keys reset again?
I think Mondays
Everything else is on Tuesday
(if I'm wrong somebody speak up)
Kk thx, couldn't remember if it reset on Monday for everyone or 7 days after u previously completed it.
if i already have 60% CHC, do CHC attachments on weapons help that or is it a wasted slot?
anyone wanna help a new player learn the game or have any recommendations on what to do
im just playing countdown for loot but have no idea if thats meta
anyone know of a third party crosshair thats good for d2?
CrosshairX
countdown is the best way to get exotics right?
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.
I've had 0 issues in pve
Games been playing the same as always
In fact it's easier than ever with hotshot and determined
Along with the revamped global events
I'm playing on Challenging mode. Attacking ANY control point results in at least 3 or more units magically on patrol in your area.
What build are you using
Bro probably took an awful lot of time to clear a control point and that attracted a lot of unwanted attention
sounds like fun
Yeah I wish I can have that kind of fun. Having adopted play style means I clear CPs in 2 mins
I wish CPs were more intense
@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?
Is Danny weaver available today, i need to find snitch before. I bought some caches yesterday.?
wear lvl 1 gear and hit a control point on heroic. that might spice up intensity for u.
Wasted
Hi all, is anyone know when next season will be opened?
i think 2-3 weeks
when it's opened by ubisoft
you want chc on your weapons mods 1st, then you balance your gear rolls and brands to hit chc cap. chc and chd mods on weapons are the same 5%, but chd 12% is double what chc 6% is on gear rolls. having the 15% chc on the weapon first gives you ability to add more chd to build while still hitting the chc cap.
Yo any way of getting the belstone Blueprint like I tried everything
Nope
Somehow i disabled almost all directives. I play with 4 of them. Green chips are not dropping and armor broken is not applying. Free xps i guess lol.
I agree with you posted. There is definately a problem with enemies magically appear near 20--30 feet away.
wait until you see west side piers in div 1 lol
try to see if you're getting the appropriate amount of xp anyway
the game was broken. like when i had special ammo it was not working and few other things were messed up. like i dont remember if i ever played more broken game after so many years, always finding new things, i am baffled
the game is not broken
nah. i am now playing summit, using the challenge open crates with access key. yeah shame it does not count. the agent wont even open the crate, the loot just drops besides me and it will not count.
now the game put the emp jammer into the open which killed me. absolutely perfect design man
Rip
yeah me with glass cannon cant even stay in the open since it kills me right away lol.
Supposed to use cover to not take damage from the connely emp 
I just face tank it.
HOW use cover when it is in the middle of the room? You need to be close to deactive it and there was no cover in proximity.
There's always cover, but you can also roll through the emp blast, which a lot of people seem to miss.
Unless I got lucky on Summit recently with a bug.
sometimes I take cover next to them and they don't do damage
Los not mattering
those things are wei4d
If by "no cover" they mean that enemies are spawning with LoS to the back of the cover, then yeah that's so you take out some of them first, then focus on the EMP.
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.
Honestly emp's shouldn't work at all on the majority of enemies.
There is cover. Post a picture over in #unofficial-troubleshooting and we'll help you spot the safe bit.
I already finished the summit project. There was no cover in the promixity, the jammer was in the open
If there would be i would use it to get rid of the jammer
Btw i have to say, steady handed on rifle build with glass cannon is such an amazing talent. Mainly on gun like UIC MOD2, cant even miss a bullet and will take out elites in few rounds.
Ooh Ubi Forward #news-and-announcements message
Hooray. Give me DLC news!
Hopefully there's still a stream with the devs for the season launch
I hope so.
damn I'm not sure if I'll be there for forward
Well i prefer to see Special Report on TD2 channel instead of ubi forward and AC Shadow but still im hyped on new DLC
Hope it's a new raid with new content
We don't get a new raid for 2 or 4 years
2020 was Iron Horse, aye.
AFAIK Raids seem to be on the backburner, but I do expect a 2nd Incursion soon-ish.
It's Crazy to think that games before 2020 were super detailed
Division 2 and 1 are detailed
To the last atom of the game
Assassin's creed unity too
And etc
(we don't compare about RDR 2 because it's a bit diabolical)
do descent purchases like accuracy and protection from elites count in base game
No
Only in descent
But hey you can buy the suit and the rifle
if i buy suit can i choose which suit i start with
no
Sadly no but you can use in the base game
the suits are only for use outside the mode
does currency gain increase out of descent descent currency?
no
Only the technology
dumbass game mode
you don't get descent currency outside descent lol
i meant the currency you can spend on the console near descent not main game money which im not sure exists
You get the technology which can be spent, you gain it based how many levels you survived
If you defeat the nemesis you get a lot
see this is interesting because im not sure by technology you mean descent- descent currency or the NSA tech currency bc both are tech 
descent currency and nsa tech are different
NSA tech
if it says it increases descent currency it doesn't affect nsa tech
nsa tech is what you spend in the console
does random starting talent take a slot in the talent grid
yes
okayy tysm for your replies
Yes but if you're lucky you might hit a jackpot with it
it's basically a free talent but takes up a slot just like any talent, you just get it for free
like an exotic or
No exotic but a meta talent
no just normal talent
i just want bullet king a shotgun and 3 cases of beer
theres no way
I mean second raid was mostly a second studio
It's almost as if the raids weren't as popular as they hoped. /s
I am thrilled for more content though. Can't wait to see the news
When did Summit drop again? Around Faye’s MH?
i love when sandstorms happen
well DH is pretty "ez" let's say, but IH is a hurdle for lots of people, and maybe too long too, im betting they implemented incursion as a replacement/evolution of raid, and sadly i don't think we'll even see an additionnal raid
Incursions are done better for sure.
season 3
i still have trauma from williams
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
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.
IH mechanics are mostly about coordination so a person build is irrelevant (once again until the end)
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."
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
I think there needs to be more missions where skills play a roll
I feel like with recent stuff its going back to a time where skills are completely useless because they just get blocked off
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
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?
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.
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.
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
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.
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
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
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.
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
firefly is cool as hell but underwhelming seekers used to be way more busted etc etc
Also, bring back predator's mark you cowards. Give it life steal too.
nerfing strikers would be better for build diversity in general imo
even if it just means still dps builds but slightly different
well i wonder how that rifle gear set is going to be now
since the review was "it's striker but bad"
half the sets are its striker but X
People will still use strikers though. It's simply one of the best sets in the entire series. Buffing other ones would be better.
no? i mean hearbreaker sure, what else is just striker? negotiator and hunters fury sure isnt
you can buff others while also nerfing strikers
Mean the newer ones
HF and nego are probably the 2 most original sets in the game
True. Even then. Most people will still use strikers.
dunno, OD and umbra are pretty interesting, one plays with special ammo and the other with being on/off cover
there shouldn't be a gear set in the game where people get out of the dlc for the first time and ask what now ? and get told oh just use this set and then never outright need new gear again even if the rolls aren't perfect T B Q H
OD is just too weak to ever be considered. A buff to it would be interesting. Umbra is cool too
well mostly saying as good original ideas, rare to see a support set in this game like OD
OD is a fairly strong support build.
I think they should bring back stack loss on miss personally
2:1 would be pretty reasonable
Yes, absolutely. Get good with aiming.
its called strikers gamble and theres zero gamble
The gamble is the host getting annoyed you're out DPSing them and kicking you.
wheres the best place to get true patriot gear rn?
same as most gear, countdown with true patriots as targetted loot
Ohh you can set which gear you want? or is it random
you can set it
Ohh thats sick thank you!
you can pick which catagory or brand you want. (includes gearsets)
hold H on the countdown icon (or hold H with the map open while in countdown)
Ill have to do that I was grinding for exotics in it anyway
strikers elmo’s means just shit game design where everything is bullet sponge and avoiding damage is best armor
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
old man yells at cloud
5.11 my beloved
How in the world is "avoiding being shot is your best way to survive" a bad mechanic rofl
it’s not , it just makes everything about blue cores and every armor stat irrelevant
me trying to use my headshot build on an 8 player raid :(
not enough fun solo content, can only really use meta in multiplayer
i mean, it varies a lot, you can put some armor instead of some red cores on a normal dps build to trade some damage for survivability, or you just go all in on survivability and hopefully support the team in some way with that survivability because you can't do any damage
if you want to have some armor that's just the price you pay, it's not like you have to be unkillable to make the game work
if you're purposefully doing hard content like legendary or incursion you basically signed up for doing them
Headshot builds are incredibly strong in raids. As far as solo content, there's tons of missions and open world stuff to play. I don't really understand what you mean by "can only use meta in multiplayer"
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
so you're asking for all builds to be the same level as "all red elmos/scorpio/ouro" so you don't get outpaced?
not necessarily, moreso have missions be more adaptable to other build types instead of being so easily ran through with those builds
i agree with you but there’s too little variation on builds bc one build is always superior and putting up a shield behind 2 crates in a legendary should be less effective with no armor cores in my opinion
but thats not at all an easy task
welcome to the concept of "people finding effective builds for tasks at hand"
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
^^^^^^ and also true in legendary. the "all red striker elmo" isn't actually the best build for that either
Strikers is obviously good, but there's way too many people in here that are really overrating it
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
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
ik it isnt like that, im saying that strikers being so good has (in my experience) led to less build diversity and lobbies full of the same build. thats not to say ppl arent using other builds cause ofc they are, but i see such similar builds so often that multiplayer is less fun for me
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
but ik other players are gonna have different experiences so i could be way off the bigger picture
thats what I'm sayin
before striker, we either ran negotiator or high end as dps, and we also didn't have as hard content as we do now (legendary tidal/zoo + incursion), meaning before the striker buff there were already staple builds people ran. and this will keep happening. now is that a bad thing?
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"
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
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?
yeah i mean if they even bother to get those builds
I'd try turning dx12 off if you have it on
It is turned off
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
it definetly makes sense, but the devs rly ought to push other build types somehow (not sure how they would but yk)
I've tried to get the 1 other person I can sometimes get playing div2 with me to make other builds and they have but yet again just reverted back to strikers because it just works everywhere*
nerfing strikers in my view is more so to bring it down so that the temptation of other builds is there
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
most of the people I played with stopped before strikers 💀
obviously you can buff the other stuff at the same time because nerfing and buffing things is not a mutual action etc etc
There was a time when everyone thought HF was the only thing worth running. High end before that. Now it's strikers.
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
bakers dozen going from GET THIS ITEM NOW to yea its still pretty good
I still think HF is better then striker for open world stuff
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
and then theres the issue of shit like home doctor being absolute dog water compared to even ok exotics like bighorn
very little consistency in exotics unfortunately
ninjabike backpack would be my example
makes me : ( whenever I see it shot down
yea its bad cus no backpack talent but its cool !
yeah which is why you'll keep seeing me repeat to people "exotic doesn't mean good"
which is sad, because i do want to see them more used
I want to see things other than elmo/regulus/scorpio
tbf regulus is rly fun and more involved
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
eagler bearer quite good i use it often
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
i still fall for that lmao
the red is just so pretty
yeah it's not really the player's fault
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
shit like the rugged gauntlets pisses me off tho
like how out of touch can the devs be to make something so ass
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
Make a gear set centered around grenades. Have them trap and pull multiple enemies. De-buffs and status procs.
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)
will the next season be year 6 or still year 5?
year 6 soon, yes.
And MSV has been doing 3 seasons a year since Year 4 (S9, S10, S11). So, Vanguard is pretty much the last season of Year 5
just double checking, 10 of june is a ubi stream not just an div2 stream right?
Yes
Tom Clancy's The Division 2 Year Six Season 1: Extremis Remedia. With Kelso going Rogue, is this the end of the Division in DC?! Help Manny and his Fish wife by Purchasing Premium Credits in the store and donating them in game to increase the Morale Meter!
💀
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
*revolve
This behavior is absolutely not acceptable, but you are correct
In all seriousness I'll take whatever I can get hopefully it's fun. I thought Diablo 4 Season 4 would grab me for more than a month but it didn't so I'm back ol' Reliable D2
Isn’t st Elmo’s engine a common exotic drop?
It's no Chameleon, but it's common enough
Ya chameleon was my first exotic LOL
I’ve been grinding countdown for st Elmo’s and haven’t gotten it yet
dont forget weekly supply project and weekly legendary mission will get you a cache as well
you can do them on multiple characters
also note sure if this is a thing or RNG< but im replaying the manhunt (heroic) and 4/4 of the final bounties have dropped an exotic
Balls
Muh final measure😔
Who up playing w their st Elmo’s engine rn
Is the snitch out still
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.
that's nice if you want a striker mem build
Ill have to see what I can do I just like it cause it goes with my hunter fit
Ive heard its pretty versatile
They've taken Challenging and made it the New Heroic.
In Heroic it's completely out of control and something I'll never use.
???
What do you mean?
Let's keep the company has people paying money to get weapons because they need to make money too.
Challenging is now what Herioc used to be.
All guns should be accessible in PVE. There is no valid excuse for it not to be that way.
Pay for weapons? At the Division?
what are is not accessible? because even raids are PVE content
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.
The assault rifle with 2 barrels
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
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 don't recall what those missions are called I know the specific weapons are not available in PVE
raids are PVE
Someone lied to this guy...
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.
||or got brainwashed||
Heroic is laughably easy with no exotics or anything special build wise.
Sounds like you need to work on your build or to try to understand how it works.
You can post screen shots of it here or in #td2-build-advice and give a description of your direction and play style and people are happy to direct you.
It's bed time for me but tons of extremely helpful people around.
i am really curious to see your build
Teammate standing over unexploded outcast rusher:
Me whos about to explode it: 😀
I'm thinking "skill issue", but that's just me
you're not alone thinking that
Only time it's taken me stupid long to do a cp was them stupid hyenas firing confuse rounds and it was a hyena on a gunner turret... Even then it didn't take me 40m to complete.. maybe 10 or so
Cqb builds deal with hyenas quite nicely
The longest time I took to complete a CP was when it was a total clusterduck in Ivy Tunnel. Convoys and other activities overlapping, and you can’t find the last enemy that would trigger the CP complete prompt because the dude was having a smoke way out in another area.
I prefer the 1 shot approach... Until the kink stick rushers run out with their juggernaut helmets and mess up your determined proc 🤠
That always happens there and it's so annoying
Same deal with regulus HH but you can quickly recover because they're in your face so another headshot would be easy
That's truth. I stay far away until the first few waves of enemies is cleared. Then I call for reinforcements, then try to spawn kill the next few waves. I'm not always fortunate to reproc my determined so I go the lazy approach and yank out nemesis lol
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
He hasn't smiled on me yet, that's for sure
I think he also wants to see me suffer
What was your target loot set too?
Ar
But i didnt had one single exo drop
Not even armour
I'd love to have your positive thinking of getting an exotic within 10 runs
Eh every time you have TL drop it's like a 99% chance to not be exotic.
I'm on 130 runs without an exotic drop and I'm sure some people have more
And from the exo crates i buy, i get only the same weapon every time
I thought exo drop chance was 5.11% on heroic CD
WHAT
RNG, BABY
But this low is crazy
RNG BABY, proceeds to roll dice out the window
Oh I rolled my dice and it burst into flames
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
Ig nobody told about Lootcifer sacrifices
🔥😈🔥
5.11 is the best material to sacrifice 
I just want St. Elmo
Time to pray to St. Elmo
You'll get it. If you get board of cd, run your 15 summit floors with ar target
Or simple run with someone who can share elmo with you makes it 2X faster
youll get it its not that uncommon
Already done that
They told me to do countdown
How do I do that?
idk why it wasnt added with the other tbh
Play with a friend on PS they can share their loot
On 5.11 zone
assuming its because its like project based
Because its project exo
yup exactly
iron lung drops from targeted loot correct, im like 900 shd and never seen it
Correct
Yes 0.0000000002% drop chance, I like those odds
I'm also pretty sure you need to get it from an exo cache and then buy the blueprint for it to be in your general loot pool
(or have somebody drop it for you)
crazy ive not gotten it from a cache yet ive opened so many
Every time a exo is dropping. It is chameleon or Bullet Hell
My first exotic was chameleon, then Scorpio, and then iron lung lol
thats wild, mines always btsu lol
RNGesus hates you
Weapon just dont exist in my game
It took my buddy 2 years to finally get ninjabike... Then as soon as it dropped, he opened a cache and guess what the game Gave him 🤣🤣🤣
lmao how it goes
I get vile mask a lot. Its really only good on all of 4 builds
Yep
I get vile a lot, chameleon, and I've been seeing a lot of chatterbox
Basically all the OG exotics
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
i didnt start doing raids until recently
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
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
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
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
I'll get regulus some other time. IH is an annoying raid to do. Way too many moving parts
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
first countdown i ran had st elmos lol
feel bad for that guy that was looking for it
i want to learn IH so bad so I watch guides about it. but i cant play it bc i can't play for like an hour without getting called for help and have to go afk lol
i'll get there some day though
that's why you watch all the speedrun guides so you can do it in 20min
