hmm nothing to really increase weapon stability
sacrificing 6% crit hit chance for weapon handling for bighorn see if it helps
huh?
you must not pvp
I think they mean PvP
yeah sure 
this is more community discord with devs popping up rarely. #unofficial-troubleshooting has pinned links for reporting, but youll need video evidence for them to revew

obvlivious
Obliterate
omnivorous
eh, you got fast info for best possible chance at reporting it. coulda just said get gud . feel free to shout out where devs will never see
i already made a case on ubisoft website but thanks buddy
hmmm achilles pulse plus bighorn wonder if its been tested
is there an exotic or high end which helps with weapon recoil and stability?
bighorn is basically an smg need to be close too muchrecoil
Fox’s Prayers?
it's not that great, achilles wants something that does as much damage as possible in one shot, as the zone is only around 800k even with overcharge, a shot that deals 1mil would just deplete it, so you want something that deals as much damage as possible for that zone health to be irrelevant
saved me time thanks
i guess you can use eagle's grasp?
nah just gonna treak bighorn as an smg with heartbreaker something i wanted anyway smg heart breaker
gotta sacrifice to much for the recoil
new named gloves from this season have 15% weapon handling
guess that's what i get for being alte, eagle's grasp as rotor said
despite the recoil
it got stupidly good range and accuracy
it can be very good at all ranges
yes finally got a st elmo engine off the last mob before extraction now i need to farm a acs-12 lol
well that one is easier
do control points reset on the daily timer?
like if i log off they do i wanna clear the map
They shift dynamically usually but apparently there's a bug where they reset when you log out
Didn't they fix it (from like a third attempt)?
had a npc give me a bounty gun runners found
guessing its just another bounty nothing special
not a hostage bounty
Where can i find a site that shows the possible rolls on a gun?
Is there any way at all to get the enforcer shotgun? Ive been looking for it for a bit
Was a preorder exclusive gun
damn heres to hoping it goes into some loot table
Might be added into descent, who knows
wait so bighorn talent only works with it scoped in?
Pretty much
....
It's fixed
For real this time
Only half of it
Still stacks hsd when landing headshots
Nope people still play
memento backpack and chillout mask really changed the game for
love that everytime i think i know something i learn even more
it occasionally reappears as part of a purchasable pack in the store (real money though of course)
I ain't never seen it in any bundle😔
I have (a few seasons back)
People like the artificer?
been leveling skill stuff its fun supporting the countdown team the job gets done faster
It's a handy tool for my Bulwark Foundry with Liberty build
countdown makes things i wouldnt normally use fun
actually like support in a game which is impossible
artificer handy on oxi builds as well.
its also scaled up by memento when using it for shield repair
💯
🫣 3rd time changing ubisoft name within 30 days
https://x.com/TheDivisionGame/status/1828145394880065863
Just a heads up
5 hours? Thats longer than usual
Guess I'm gonna have to do a nemesis run for later. Oh well
Seems they forgot to post it here, was only posted on Twitter
soo i guess that means farm the chillout mask now before they fix the loot goblin lol
Select at Channels&Roles.
Anyone want to play with me while teaching me some basics? Im level 71 on playstation
I saw an enemy crawl out of a sewer thing :S
Did you greet them?
They're of the underground faction
which mission is the best to run to boost players to lvl 40?
ok, let's try this countdown thing again....and maybe tonight a lightning strike wont blow up my modem again. XD
reanimated incoming
, whose ready for their normally 30mil hotshot builds to be pushing 120mil per shot 😎
They drop normal loot except the loot goblin which drop some exclusive items
I dont even have hotshot lol
i wonder what the actual multiplier is
if it's greater than 3.71x it's officially stronger than intimidate
hey rotor, o got a question for you
ask
we got two weeks, ye?
One week actually
why did the java dev need glasses
I can finally return to the division 2 after being without a headset because my monitor I’m using in college doesn’t have speakers
division2 Server maintenance today
Didn’t that already happen?
Based on Korean time
https://x.com/UbiSupportKR/status/1828146780254671356?t=wWHucnhgAKpKbvvGQa4XQw&s=19
yeah one of them was the sleigher or something
any point redoing the leto league missions on week 2 if youve already aced the first week?
the rewards ? if you managed to max out all 6 missions then you dont need, but msot do it in 2 weeks cause they dont care about maxing it all in 1
yeah its a chrismas item
cool
weird, suddenly started getting constant Delta-03 errors the last few days and after reinstalling and disabling bluetooth on my Laptop, it got fixed
imagine multiplying in the Division
this engine is on the stranger side of things so many ways to fix bugs works one second and not the next
ive crashed 3 times in 150hrs which is amazing for todays games only major bug was the character selection screen one which was fixed
Any downtime today?
Do you count Deltas in that, or only actual game crashes?
are the servers on maintanence i havent seen anything posted
ive had 2 deltas now i think it of it but actualy crashes like 3 times
mate i treat my pc like a well oiled car undervolt/overclock cpu, gpu, ram and make sure all my fans and dust filters are fans i cleaned regularly
software side as well
I'm guessing it'll be around <t:1724745600:t> since that's when the weekly reset happens
ive had to fix some gamers pc dudes got all kinds of malware chewing up their system resources
i got a warning 40mins ago
i tried to launch the game
it said servers were offline
So maybe in ~15min then?
Or was the warning that it'd go down in 40min? (At the time you recieved the warning)
its a 5hr maintenance so probably 4hrs the servers will be back or sooner
warning to get off
How do we know it's 5 hours?
said so in the game
Ah
Kind of crazy to have to check twitter just to find news about it
To perform infrastructure updates, we'll be taking #TheDivision2 servers down for scheduled maintenance Tuesday, August 27, at <t:1724738400:t>
🕗 Estimated downtime is 5 hours
yeah
Kinda strange that there's no announcement here, or on the status tracker
the hamsters running the servers need a nap
True
They're doing kind of a bad job anyway
Do you remember how long it took them to fix all the crashes in Countdown?
this. maybe some mod is missing here
There was an x post stating this but wasnt shared through the normal channels. Just an agent posting the link
After reading the chat further looks like you already gathered that info. Forget my last
i think the bot is not picking up thoses anymore
Correct, strange that they chose to announce it on twitter instead of their status tracker
I was wrong, it's also shown on the tracker
Hopfully they get back to having this info auto post to the appropriate discord channels soon. #division-tweets has been silent for more than a year 
Our services are undergoing maintenance since then they started doing his???
Maintenance untill which hour pls ?
5hours? When beginning ?
Estimated downtime 5 hours
Since which hour ?
what timezone are you in?
France
im talking about the image post
10:23 in France
its been going for 2.5h already
hope the DZ isn't cavalier for the 7th time this week
alr cheers
i was confused because there was no mention of a server maintenance
4:26PM UTC+8 in malaysia
ty dude
Anyone has any clue why they would drop a maintenance without a proper message... This must be a new first low...
So we don't even let Players know that there is a Maint, not that they do anything anyway except stuff things up more.
there actually was a proper message ingame an hour before servers went offline
maybe they forgot to mention and they adding something new
That's nonsense though. Not everyone plays at that time... and they have plenty of channels outside the game to share news
They gave you 10 hours notice https://x.com/thedivisiongame/status/1828145394880065863
Ahh thanks, nice for them to share it on discord though
It's typical Ubi bull. Ubi Daria and Yannick need to get there act together.
Anyway lets hope that some good results come from this Maint.
Hi I have a question why I can not play the division I get a error that service is not afilabe Mike-01 how I can fix this?
yep me too
maitenance going
all servers paused
Oh a update?
ye
Where you can see that then?
at least another 2h
Morning all you early risers. 
let us use 2 exotic gunssssss
That would require the Exotics we have to be massively nerfed.
@azure lintel Good morning!
How to solve the error on Xbox mike-01
ok one will do
The servers are down right now for maintenance.
Mornig all i live in europe in the nederlands withe time is the service ready
its not error
they need a buff though some of the talents dont excite me for example i tried eagle bearer but the talent makes me think its this meant for legendaries etc
there we go, direct people to that.
ourobos is nice
hello rivens
Devs usually dont make changes based on a single players personal preferences xD especially not after 6years of the games release. But never give up hope 😉
But why would you change a talent that is (according to you) made for legendary? dont like legendary?
Ive been playing 20 hours a day in average since a week ago (since I bought TD2)
I now have to stop pretending to my boss being sick and go back to work.
Thanks Ubisoft 😡
20hrs a day……. 😐
working is hard top prority
i stand by what i said lol still trying to get used to the talent
you dont make much sense. the playtime seems reasonable (did same on releaseweek) but why is UBI responsible for you not keeping up your "Scheme" with boss? maintenance made you leave the house and he spied on you?
this person is looking for drama lol misery loves company
how the game is set up right now, even getting all exotics takes less than 3 days if you learn the raids
I think it was humor guys I love Ubisoft and update are necessary - you’re too serious lol go outside sometime
Still game is under maintenance ?
What do they mean by infrastructure updates
i was actually looking for the humor with that spy remark.
with ubisoft that means they re moving us to cheaper servers with less capacity. expect more hit issues
Oh so we'll get half refunds right
you hitting the nerve: software is among the noRefundProducts...and that fact is being abused. alot.
Its a big update
i doubt any changes will be made except more issues
Oh lol .. i was looking for hypothetical answers.. don't go to intellectual bro .. its just a game
Oh oké but why 5hours offline?
See u later
Maintenance always happens on this day/night of the week. On top there is a new ge starting so it's pretty well expected even if communication was minimal
nonsense, communication is key for your playerbase.

whats the player xp like between challenging and heroic countdown? all ever done challenging
people dying and leaving or a breeze as well?
It's mostly kill xp so not much. I think either gives around 1 shd per run
i like playing support finish it quicker some players just keep dying
I've always preferred challenging because it's easy to carry challenging if someone crashes. The loot is still good rolls, and it's an exo cache every 2 rounds
It was communicated on their twitter/x
I agree
Any ETA as to when server will be back up?
I agree too.
Was stated as 5 hrs , so 2.5 hr from now. Maybe less
Thx for being great
I wonder if they’ll announce crossplay at some point when the dlc gets announced..
that will never be implemented, either a game does it at launch or never...
Look at For Honor..
well, i wouldn't hope for it
@gaunt dust No political stuff.
MSV have said crossplay is not happening.
I would bet that it'll happen for div3 though.
all what's been said is that it is an open world expansion set in Brooklyn, NYC. Bit like WONY but smaller
I wonder what is in the update from 5 hours
Fix 1 bug, cause 60 more is the usual way these updates go
daring today, aren't we
When can we play?
if you're lucky, about 50 minutes from now
I hope as soonpoisble lol
Because I was playing to unlock the fireresearch but its its dificul Because I dont understand how to compleet the thask
No client patch so just backend stuff as they said infrastructure updates
Neutrailze the corpulent after destroy his ammo pack how i must compleet this?
Destroy his ammo pack before killing him
welp, I was going to play a bit for the first time in forever on my lunch break as I'm working form home. Guess not :3
The Corpulent's ammo pack is on his rear
I try but its dificult can you help me with that that we play to geter that we try to do it
He's on PC, so he can't help you
Afraid I can't help you you're on Xbox and I'm on PC and no crosssplay
Demolisher Firefly destroys enemy weakpoints, so you could use that.
What’s today’s maintenance about?
It is not about the problems on Trello, that's for sure.
Pts prep maybe?
Oh oké 😦
Doubt it, maybe after the next week because of the manhunt finale.
Ah true
how is siege these days? i left after the serious tactical aspect died.
is someone else having issues launching division 2?
It's maintenance.
Ah
When is the update finished?
something is pinned
5 hours
Its almost 5 hours
cant wait?
is it still in maintenance?
yes
aw man
tho even if i was going in dark zone south i wouldve died since im bad
even with some good gear
When is update rdy?
I was on floor 100 of the summit :c
Nah. Pts will be an update to a seperate build. More likely new target/ge/league stuff
Still not online 😦
Gonna be a few hours probably
Guess I won't be farming dz resources for a bit
Its al more then 5
If they stick to the 5hr maintenance it should be up in 1.25hrs
Yeah, but Nyx and the Manhunt finale is next week
The rule is always +2 to their estimate
I wouldn't be surprised if that got added last hotfix
Just hidden for now
Technically maintenance was always 3hr previously 😂
I love how the server status page for td2 is just broke
Yeah, doesnt mean it cant be preprepped early to allow for any unforeseen issues to be fixed
True
Ok yeah wth they post about the maintenance on twitter, but forgot here
Is server down? Or I have a problem
server is down for now
Maintenance
The +1 mag bug is still gonna be here isn't it
Maintenance will be prolly extended?
just wait for "maintenance has been extended by another 2.5hrs" message
Its ubisoft its always extended
You'll know in an hour
The joys of maintaining a game that was technically meant to be dropped a few years ago
Maintenace was scheduled until? 40 more minutes right?
Yeah
It's online.
Status Online ✅
PC
PSN
XBOX
Let's goo
Equip the Demolisher Firefly then aim it at him when he does show up. The Demolisher will automatically target his ammo pack, kill him after it's done its thing and you'll get it done
Maintance done?, cool
Looks like my Nemesis run has come early
What about him?
bros a god
Hello, been gone a while, need to play td2 Again.
Any player willing to refresh Memory as to What needs to be looked into în The game?
If by "God" you mean he runs around in the 40-500SHD DZ level with 325000SHD killing new players and stealing extractions, then yeah by your definition maybe..
damn
First control I do with this event and it's bugged I can't find the enemy anywhere :/
Look around or use a scanner pulse
wow his event way more better than hollywood
Reanimated has always been fun
reanimated and Golden Bullet are peak
Imo they make the game too easy, almost all global events makes things trivial
The game itself is easy but who cares
first game had a good balance of GE being both boosts and detrimental
second game outside of goldenbullet and reanimator most were drasticly detrimental
That's the one, I believe. You could also switch enemy polarity by melee
with melee challenges meh i wait other tomorow more challenges
is the server still in maintenance ?
no
nope up and running
They buffed all the "bad" GE's not that long ago, before that most people agreed that only GB was truly good.
Hey riv, how's it
Reanimated was bufed so much that it was flat-out killing friendly NPC's through walls.
hey sleep
, ah you know. You?
Cuz he needed to see his unfinished JIRA ticket
Honestly, I don't get it.
Are you going for hashtag, pound sign from older phones, or the proper name for it "octothorpe".
What on earth is an octothorpe
It's a programming joke
C# is a programming language, C sharp
Never knew it was called anything other than hashtag
He couldn't C# (see sharp)
Yeah not a programmer, had no chance of getting that one.
I mean it's a music thing too apparently
It was a musical notation before it became other things
I think we assumed that it was a musical notation before it was a grogramming thing.
but let's get back to div2 before I have to reprimand myself.
Still I think its a good pun
Ah fair enough, do we have a gearset for lmgs yet?,
Or is it still strikers and span
Not one specifically for lmgs, but striker/heartbreaker works just as well
I mean, isn't that just ND?
Nd?
I always paired it with an MG5 back pre-strikers meta.
ND:
Critical hits mark enemies for 20s, up to 3 marks total.
When you critically hit a marked enemy, all other marked enemies
take 60% of the damage dealt.
Whenever a marked enemy dies, gain +2% critical hit damage,
stacking up to 20 times, or until combat ends."```
You can also go ongoing directive with Carnage
Big mag size means you can mark more enmies without reloading. It's a fun combo if you've never tried it.
Oh right BK's base gun was bufed during Resolve, wasn't it.
Try the old "BK+stikers" combo, it used to be a joke, but it seems more relevant now.
Strikers is the damage buff for hits right
You roll chc for the third attribute for bullet kind, and run ceska
Lol yaahl vest at the clan vendor, I thought it was removed in a previous patch
epic 💯
stock up on yaahl mats. its around 6mil credits to max out on the crafting mats
Ok yeah I use bk and strikers, it's stupid fun if you can keep it rolling
You can make bk do a million damage per shot
They still haven't fixed reanimated killing friendly npcs
Bk is kinda poop in the attachments
Is it working al of still offline?
Did something so evil today i didnt even do it in my 4k hours from the first game. Let some guy run into me farming landmarks for a bit then farmed him for a double extraction
forgive me it was a bad day
I am plating eveything is back to 0% al my weekly mission why is that
today is reset day
Bro they were supposed to fix that like 7 months ago. They said they had a “fix ready” 😂😂
Still down?
They "fixed it", realized it wasn't fixed, is now under "investigation" on the Trello board and planned for next season
Oh thanks for the clarification. I stopped caring after they said that then it didn’t happen. HOPEFULLY it’s fixed next season. Because doing public executions is the second highest open world xp value.
Yeah it sucks you have to fire a warning shot and hope the friendly npcs walk away 🙄 if you want the bounty
Doesn't sound like a lot until you realize it's a negev, that's a lot of shots, and that's without petrov, sledge, bloody knuckles, anything
anyone know the difference in countdown credits between challenging and heroic?
Heroic ~208, callenging ~156.
But then heroic has a tendency of drawing in a lot of bots so you need to take into account that more runs might fail.
yeah i play support one run was great the other i was just rezzing from hunters
Best support build is full red dps.
ah i just take skill teir 6 scorpio med hive and foam launcher
ok what did they do during maintenance lol
hamsters running the servers took a nap
Lmao
i feel like he made a new account and since many people move from xbox to pc or playstation
and since knowing everything about gear and weapons it made him have a huge advantage,if he has new york expansion too
Full Hazpro eclipse is dope in cd , hunters just stay foamed 
Or if you kill them you don't even need foam.
the only thing is that i really want to get better so i can finally get some kills in dz,i have like 13,knowing froma status website,and many i did end up killing in game was people under my level or gear @karmic cosmos
i mean thats DZ in a nutshell
You could probably run half the dps with 1 solid cc guy. Easy carry. New agents , bad builds, all successful 😎
Wasn’t the Nyx Manhunt supposed to be available today?
Looks like it was reanimated today...
Damn, got on for nothing then…
It was always gonna be on September 3rd
Wtf is wrong with these incompetent devs? Every Tuesday they break this game even more. Two missions now and game freezes…
And it’s now slowly getting infested with lagswitchers on console lol
Is that why the game keeps freezing when I try and shoot?
Possibly, not sure though
Because they hate you and want you to suffer /s
Well, you can always become a dev and join the division dev team and help them out
I don’t think it’s personal because it affects everyone.
I chose to pursue a career in medicine. They chose game programming, development, etc. So it’s their job not mine. And this is an ongoing issue with this game. I’ve played so many other games from different developers with no problems.
Well what can i say. Its kind of a difficult sittuation, when devs try their best people say they only break everything more, if they didnt do it people would say they dont do anything. And we have to remember we are not ubis favorites
Division would be diffrent if it was treated like r6s
Or Assasins creed
Oh and pursue your dreams.
Are you sure?
I didn't notice any issues on pc when I was running through daily projects, GE active.

Arent deltas related to connection issues?
People who get deltas blame the game tho, it's cannot be their issue.
I have 1.5Gbps fibe w/ ethernet no internet issues on any other online multiplayer games, media, etc. It started today after that so called maintenance and as it usually does almost every Tuesday. I was able to play normally last week with the usual bugs and lag here and there when trying to shoot but no bullets firing. But I notice after today even looting has become an issue and deconstructing plus I couldn’t even log out to switch characters. My friends and I noticed that it’s not as bad when playing solo. And we even tried matching with randoms and as soon as there’s a full group the game just freezes up.
No need for name calling you two.
Sorry guys my bad for the lag
Well deltas really like to choose people
I was playing with a friend in DZ a week ago and i got hit with a delta
He was not. Maybe its just a server issue
So lags in groups, and lag in general is definitely tied to a connection issue.
The thing is, there is more cable/fiber/devices that you have to go through after your connection is established. When people say my connection is such and such means absolutely nothing , it doesn't exist in a vaccume. Also when someone suggests it's a connection issue it's not really aimed squarely at you... if you've ever done a tracert you would see how many different connections you hit on the way to wherever.
I was also matchmaking with randoms, no issues.
I was one 1gb coax connection that hits fiber at a node, not even fiber to the home, for reference.
My turn for an essay
I’ve met dozens and dozens of people on this game who can attest to Countdown delta’s usually right after you save the plant and are about to encounter the last hunters and black tusk.
Coo.
I think its more of a PS thing
Naw it's def gotta be this exact persons internet and the mouse is tired in that box alright.
I understand what you’re saying. But what you don’t understand is that most of these issues weren’t happening when I played with dozens of different friends last week. And dozens and dozens of different randoms before this maintenance.
Exactly!
I remember there were problems on playstation in one of the ubisoft games in the past
Right? PC was fine and PlayStation was so bad that I had half a diamondback skin on my capacitor and nobody could see their loot or their hud.
I think we found the problem, its the game optimalisation on PS.
If you've got potential connection issues and latency problems on xbox, go to network, advanced, QoS tagging, and enable DSCP tagging
Though its most likely PS lmao
Being honest, not much we can do right now with that issue. The best thing we can hope that it will kinda repairs itself
First time playing the reanimated event & dang, headhunter build's dmg is stonking off the chart.
Didnt realize the event would give extra headshot dmg
Just curious, are you on PS4 or PS5?
Edit: I'm dumb, it's in your name
O man I should post my grey gear reanimated vid.
Yeah it's set to a rediculous multiplier
Loving it. lol
Could probably put a determined pistol on any build and wipe everything out
Determined D50 and chainkiller is all you need to heroic solo.
Its a lot of fun tho 💯
One of my favourite events. You can one shot named. Once you proc that determined. It’s a lot of fun.
tbf you don't need reanimated to one shot named, this event just lowers the bar to like 1-2 items needed.
What build do you use to one shot named without this event?
Just a normie sniper build.
Did the server just crash lol
Model 700 will hit like 30 mil and nem will hit 55ish or something on my build.
The only problem I see... when using regulus and all the npcs that were wiped from the explosion get back up... usually the cloud kills them again tho 
Helps with the kill x amount after reanimating tho.
True
I do embrace the cheese for this event and D50 determined. Don't tell Dien...
I meant one shot a named with determined not nemesis, etc in my reply to Carnival. And with a full group I haven’t found any build with a gun that has determined that can one shot named without reanimated.
I mean just a model 700 then. Maybe not idr I just M870 named after a certain player scaling.
Maybe I'll use a determined kard custom and get another free skilltier. Tier 5 bulwark with a tier 4 artificer sounds nice
Show me proof without reanimated one shot kill a named with any gun with determined and your build good luck…
Bro I one shot boomer I could do that with ease.
One shots exist 👆
Build?
For boomer 1 shot?
With Regulus, Nemesis, etc obviously…
I think this guy is just talking about determined. Idk I don't really run it often(I snipe normally) and I'll usually M870 things and follow up with DCH while out in the open world.
Most named enemies have helms or allow you to body with with the M870 and follow up with DCH to finish them.
They did nerf the incursion to keep ppl from 1 shotting... must be fairly common to cause a change like that
Have you seen this yet?
Probably not. I'll check it out 
4 shots to kill lovebirds with just 2 people.
I'm really confused as to what happened there
Fully stacked blb, and dch + achilles pulse?
Yeah pretty much.
Oh okay, so two overcharged achilles pulses I see
What's DCH?
It's an exotic holster named dodge city holster
m870 is ezpz
weirdge
I finally found a video https://youtu.be/7d_luvY5zKU?t=40
There is surprisingly little content on you tube showcasing a fully optimized top end damage determined hh sniper build
guys, if you have PTT enabled and pretty much any device as input, it should show the voice icon when u press it no matter where u are, isn't that right?
especially if it's a freaking working mic
but for me there's no icon, even when in a group
I can't get this shit to work
if I disable PTT it detects my voice with the green bar in the menu, but no icon when I'm speaking
can anybody inv me to test if they can hear me?
You can’t one shot boomer solo. You need 4 or 5 others giving you buffs for that.
which wasn't what anyone was disputing
am I server muted or is this the weirdest bug ever?
I get this too, but I think you cannot be heard
@dire crow Incursion LFG's go to #lfg-td2incursion-console
that doesn't make any sense...
some type of glitch, my mic is obviously fine
like I can't connect to VOIP, but I can still hear other people though
He couldn’t even one shot kill that elite who wasn’t even wearing a helmet at 4:45. Let alone a named enemy and he shot him right in the head. Plus he’s only in a 3 man group with just 3 directives which also makes a difference.
They aren't running vigilance, or running a fully optimized top end damage build, nor buffed by something like future initiative
But a named enemy does die at the time stamp I made
But yea 4 player scaling will need additional buffs (excluding the above) to one shot a named, but it is possible
😄
I noticed that the invaded dark zones are called occupied now
man, had to go with d50 😔 .. determined kard custom made excellent t5 bulwark/t4 artificer... lacked consistent killing power in group. d50 just wipes everything regardless 💯
I keep getting Delta 03 and game is lagging a lot since last maintenance
hey yall, so i have got st elmos striker build, lvl 150 watch. what build should i focus on to start doing legendary raids and other end game content. feel like ive been messing around doing nothing
Max that build out and you'll still be okay, but if you're wanting pure DPS try the 3x Providence, Contractors/Foxs and Grupo Holster, with an AR and Rifle build .. still works and is decent, if you're looking for Skill/Tank type situation then hopefully someone else will chime in for you
ooh okay ty. was thinking that my dps wouldnt be enough for raids / incursions so was wondering what the next step was
or like whats the next step after u make a striker build in this game lol
well, those are kinda side-by-side as the Striker setup is META but the 3x Piece Providence etc is the pure red build...
So it's kinda a loaded question, you need to know what your playstyle is and what you want.. watch some raids and then farm the gear for Tank / Skills builds theres all sorts out there now
Next step, find a raiding grp / team / clan and that'll really help, you on PC?
ah yes thats the problem i dont know what i dont know
Hope all the info provided helps mate, good luck on the journey 🙂 enjoy farming your builds!
if im farming summit whats the best diffaculty to put on to farm? im just looking for some striker
Challenging - but when you get to levels that include a boss, 10/20/30 etc it maybe worth setting to Legendary, if you have a group or confident solo to have the shot at Big Horn
You can also run Heroic with Directives if you wish, bring a few friends also or go in by yourself if you're able to 🙂
Can Some one tel me how I can play jeffreyson trade center,space administration hq, potomac event center, federal enmergecy bunker on black tusk mode i can not change this to the mode te other mission i can change how I get this?
If you mean Invaded, you have to wait every week to get a new invaded Stronghold.
Yo where do I ask for help with summit?
Thanks
Yes thats what i mean but when iets the new week then? Because today its must be changed
Wher farm resources for optimalization?
Invaded missions change every Tue, but there’s no real schedule to which 3 missions are invaded.
If you’re under 1K shd, just do stuff. A mix of everything. After 1K, create a new character and share resources.
The drop rate is abysmal. Better off doing the raid and letting people know you need it
Only got one more piece of gear to get until I’m raid ready
Get all these exotics and still can’t even get a matador to drop
You were raid ready all along tho.
Just been getting pestilences, diamond backs and doctors homes 😂
Wdym
No like got one more piece to get for my build
The raids are so well known and strats figured out that 4 man raids are not even a great accomplishment anymore.
When you go to find a group to teach/carry you thru the raid if they require you to have builds and do a bunch it's gonna be a bad time tho.
Ahh but in my clan I gotta have a certain build to get “raid ready” role. And then I can get invited to clan too
Tbh I’ve done 10 clears of incursions is raids harder or nah?
It's more mechanically involved.
For IH especially. DH is really not hard.
I'd suggest looking for some LFG raids with people who are willing to take FTCs tho.
DH is a breeze, IH requires a lot more coordination
Curious which build they want you to have to be "raid ready"?
I'd guess the HE crit build?
Well we have a choice
But yeah shit like providence backpack, sacrifice, foxes prayer etc
I'm seeing YouTubers with an insane amount of armor on base stats so my question is if I try about the max armor builds won't my dps suffer?
Right now rush and owned everything while gaining armor stacks is my favorite play style and when I wanna chill is heartbreaker cover mode
depends on what you are playing
armor builds using talents and other stuff to stack damage is how things play out in PVP
in PVE people focus more on raw DPS or one shot trick builds like determined hotshot
You spelled exo components wrong 
Fr
Would be alot nicer if we could use exo components for proficiency purposes
Actually allows for viable expertise farming below like SHD 1500
cmon, diamondback is a good weapon with the right build
Are you in NY?
no, dc
That's probably why
aight I'll check there
maybe u got a bounty with one?
Can't get a Cleaner bounty when there are no Cleaner presence to begin with
When looking at a CP the faction icon is displayed.
You can also select it to see this if you don't know the icons.
I was doing outcasts, is that wrong?
What is it you are trying to do here?
Is this a spec project?
daily project, I just have neutralize 1/2 named cleaners left
not sure if the boss in a mission would count
Okay, then just head to NY and do a CP 4 that's got the cleaner faction.
kk thx
I thought I did, must have been in cony island though
Oh yeah that's possible. Do the secret rat boss too?
you monster...
rats are smart
Do you know about that secret boss?
There are three in the game. Not sure if "Yanik the beard" is spawning tho, was bugged for a while.
I've heard of them but don't know anything
Bee guy in zoo as you mentioned, rat guy in coney amusement park, and yanik in this underground area on the west side of DC.
Yeah you have to shoot some rat dolls that have glowing eyes and he'll spawn after you do the computer in the haunted house with those waves of enemies.
I miss Nick the Bear
i miss the crocodile in the pit
You spelled component wrong as well 
people sleep on it over plague for some reason
but we all know the real underrated talent
intimidate
wym plague ????
Diamond back every single time marks the furthest enemy and not the 4 that is running and shooting at me
adaptive instincts
why people even play plauge at all ???
Maybe during golden bullet 🤔
lol the way the dude in the vc just said "dude tier 3 unhinged gave me 54% weapon damage it's so broken"
nah even on normal days, its fun af
High doubt
When's th last mission
Bro hasn't played the game proper
it used to be retained on weapon swap, so you could stack with a shotgun/high rof weapon and swap to something with high base like pistol or mmr
the tick would scale with the base damage and dealt very high damage
but it's no longer the case
For manhunt
And it also worked alongside Optimist
yeah it scales off weapon damage
Your guess is as good as any...
next week is the last target if thats what you are asking
Eevee has no idea what this game is anymore I bet.
Ty
I eated the Mona lisa
Lol I'm just SUPER busy
Went from working full time to doing school full time and 20 hours per week at my job
ew
Yeah
designing raids full time
Full time depressed Ubisoft employee
September 3rd
so every regular ubi employee?
Yes
Why is the service down?
prob server issues either regional or just momentary
try again and if it doesnt work just try again later
That’s exactly what they turned into
any idea why when i change my backpack cosmetic it just keeps swapping back to my previous one and WONT swap
nvm solved my issue, for some reason it was bugging and wouldnt save the backpack style until i saved it as my loadout lol
It also happens if you have some custom non brand/gear skin on any item in your inv or cache.
Yup sticky transmog pieces. If you select another piece in the category swap the sticky appearance mod on and off of that piece, your equipped Item should look how it supposed too.
That would explain my issue with the Ward vest
Yeah. I usually just let it slide but when switching to a memento build it gets annoying
i've done IH today and working on the projects. i need 5 more ironwork base materials. could i run the raid again this week and get them? i only have 1 character
It would have to be on another character to receive the parts
Keep in mind if you wait for next week, run with your character to get materials and finish the projects, you'll need to wait for the following week to run again for the regulus. With how quick it is to get new characters to 40, plus there's just nice benefits of doing so, it might be worth it to level another character
question
if i hit a ad with my banshee pulse, does that work for the perk flatline?
ik its labeled as pulse, but i want to make sure it actually counts for the flatline perk dmg bonus
i think it does afaik. still better of with tech laser if possible.
Anyone know the best way to farm for tactical assessments?
Or how can get them blueprints
level 3 and 4 control points drop the blueprints
would it be worth getting off gunner for tech for the laser?
or should i swap off flatline? im not sure what the best dps perk is rn
Everyday it’s something else. Now it’s the sound of explosions and inter-action with the Snitch, for example. Fix it !!!
Tbh, it's probably pretty close. Flatline can be up 100% with no ramping up, but you lose a crit mod when using the laser. If its striker you'll probably benefit more from gunner and strained/fast hands. Personally I do a lot more on gunner, but will utilize flatline if I'm going tech/memento for some sort of hybrid dps
Now if utilizing heartbreaker, go all in with flatline tech laser since itll be helping 2 buffs
hey is there a weapon that i can use as a massive cannon, a single enormous shot that hits like a truck but is slow to set back up?
As far as "takes a while to kill, can kill a building" guns for div2 go, the best is most like the Nemesis MMR.
Nemesis, TAC-50 are best bets
and what kinda damage can nemi do once you give it the whole shebang of buffs and enemy debuffs, like sledge etc.
ideally, i want to just delete one guy, say screw you in particular you no longer get to live
Enough to be used in some one shot strategies in raids
At one point, the Nemesis could do ~100 million damage.
is it possible to gib a chunga through his armor, or is armor its own healthbar
Armour is best seen as a kind of "plate" that goes over a health-bar.
No bypassing armor at the moment
sadge
On some enemies you can using oxidolizer or weakpoints
theres a specific chunga thats been pissing me off, i wanted to delete him
Crossobow is stupidly useful for armor break
alternative idea, whats the best way to improve LMG damage
You can Tac-50 onetap bt chungas through their backpacks, but that's the only ones afaik
Stacking talents and crits
A chest/belt shot with the crossbow to a BT heavy will take their chest=plate off, leaving them open to direct health damage.
They die so very fast once that happens.
But most of the time, a striker build an an AR will rid you of any chunga in seconds
is there a better gearset to use with LMG's for horde clearing than strikers, which gives ridiculous damage
Nego can be a option for multi target damage
Also synergizes well with contractors since nego double-dps dta
Yea, negotiators dilemma
Chest is almost never worth it, increases marks from 5 to 3
you can only mark 3 enemies at once?
That's plenty
Personally I find that enemies die too fast to mark more targets in most situations
using an LMG?
You can use whatever you like, but lmgs can be pretty nice with it
Oddball choice is ongoing directive
Mostly because its one of the sets might scale better with LMGs
Yeah special bullets with extra damage and bleed
Since its based on magazine size and set gives 30% reload speed
how do you get these special bullets
uhhh, what if my magazine size is one thousand
BK magazine size is 100
no? it fires 1k bullets without reloading
You dont have to reload, doesnt meant it doesnt have magazine size
i thought its mag size was just whatever your ammo maximum was
does it just continually feed a small mag with bullets?
Ypu are free to go and find out yourself, but yeah its just 100 rounds mag with no reload
every time you get a kill you get refresh back to 100
also cause bleed
so while it needs something to kicsktart the status effect
it's self sufficient later
so kill something in a hundred shots and i just get 100 more special shots
and i should make more clear, hitting enemies that are under status effect marks them, killing marked enemies gives you special ammo
that sounds lame
so you can hit an enemy just once to mark them
it means that the makr is longer than most status effect
so it's easier AND if a teamate kills them you still get the ammo
which WASNT the old case so the current one is much better
also you share special ammo to your allies
so everyone gets the buff
It's a damage support basically but it doesn't mean it's bad.
laaaaaame, ill keep using the sentry gun build
i just wish that sawyers knees could have a damage core instead of defensive core, cause that could be super fun
i use BK to make myself into a sentry bird
i dont move often, i sit in one spot and hold the trigger on anything i see
If you have fun playing like this, ok then,
but I think someday you will thank your friend for giving you those 20% on your sentry build weapon.
My only friend does not play div 2, she plays factorio and overwatch
There’s a named LMG called Carnage that has perfect Sadist on it, I use that for Ongoing Directive
I have 150 bullets with the gunner lmg pouch
yeah but 150 shots isnt nearly enough
How many bullets are we talking?
1000 or more is the appropriate amount
anything less is a peashooter and for cowards
Bro still simping for mid
i like boolet king
why i cant buy 2 the gift from countdown vendor?
Server lag probably?
US east and central are kinda fried
Probably dont move often because it takes forever to clear a few npcs . Hopfully you dont run into a lot of medics , or you may actually need all 1000 rnds 
on EU server rn and it takes about half to a full second for build swap to apply, maybe it's just not registering that you bought it
Do you have cd requisition credits?
Good chance if it isnt letting purchase, it's either lack of credits or lack of inventory space
nah i just dont like moving a lot, and i target medics immediately
those canrival missions worth it?
easy exo component for the daily
Can any of yall help me out...I finished warlords of new York campaign and currently level 40 yet don't even have ny SHD watch. I am so confused. Am I missing something?
go to quartermaster
I went to quartermaster and nothing
there should be a sidequest to just tlak to him and get teh watch
but if you completed the campaign you should have gotten yours in teh last mission
Which I did complete and can't seem to find
Yeah I checked my missions and nothing on getting it for NY expansion. Just super confused cause on my pc I remember getting after last mission
Should I run through the mission again?
trying to fiure out why my backpack trophey isnt coming for clearing all the control points thought it might be side missions
I want division 2 revamp enemy health bar design, skills design and hud design into 2018 version for dlc in 2025
is it all dc, or dc and ny. i honestly cant remember
oh nice 🍻
39115 is insane
does fast traveling to the white house refill ammo and medkits like a safehouse?
y
open world supply drops worth it?
just a little 🍻
4d herioc has it a little over half an shd. is it top xp farming, no. is it easy xp if moving through or need an activity for project, yes.
#ask-td2-community message
and afaik whitehouse does refill. you may have to enter though, but i could be wrong about that
kk
It does. Every BoO, settlement and safe house will refill your consumables and ammo
I received the "go to quartermaster" mission in DC after finishing the manhunt briefing mission, maybe that will help you too
when you hear roague agent detected and nothing happens cant find them
im heart broken
time to go heroic global settings i hear it happens often on it
That spelling is intentional, right?
my brain to keyboard ratio with grammar is so broken i often read things ive sent and wonder whats wrong with me dont even fix it anymore
dnd? descent?
lolololol
I mean, Descent is basically whoever runs it playing DnD, but pretending there's a reason for it beyond fun.
It's always given me serious Legend of Grimrock vibes.
@small spear we have a new word
so overload came with this season? hits hard
btw they're in the vicinity, they spawn at a few specific locations, if the music disappears while you're moving it means you're out of the area etc.
new exotic every season?
that has been the case, yes
yeah i was coming out of a safehouse i missed it
(technically they're supposed to find you but their pathfinding is fortunately terrible)
wonder if overlord can put a stop to the headless chicken mode in the dz, ive used scorpio but the fight happens so quick i cant tell if the person is been effected
(it should be noted that Rogues often, and I do mean often, glitch out so they kinda just....don't appear when their music plays.)
They definately make the fight more interesting thats for sure. This reminds me i gotta do those special chests with the hunters
Hunters are a mystery to me I dont face them enough to know their playstyle, countdown doesnt count
The only difference between those and normal hunters are they're classed as elite BT and they don't throw out skills unless you count a jammer
Hi I have a question where I can find aid hostage rescue to compleet my project
Once you take over the CP's in an area, you start to see green handcuff icons. Those are "hostage rescue".
Oke I need to take over al control points in a area? Then it wil show on the map?
Technically they can appear anyway, but they have a higher chance of spawning if you've cleared out any red activities first.
Oh oké
I started to collect Nemesis parts, did Invaded Tidal Basin, got the Blacktusk key from the bed, opened the door at the back of the hovercraft, i got a random rifle instead of adrestia-sr1, am i missing something? or should i got the blueprint first?
See if you already have the exo part in the resources tab
Decon adrestia for the 1st part
Then set whatever stronghold is invaded this week back to invaded (hold g in mission options screen to change mode)
Each invaded stronghold drops a piece. Invaded manning zoo will drop a random piece youre missing.
Next time grand Washington hotel is invaded youll get the nemesis blueprint
thanks
Adrestia won't drop if a nemesis part/ completed nemesis mmr is in inventory or stash
Yeah I'm assuming the nemesis quest hasn't been done on the account
What would be the overall costs for the devs to give console players a new gen update?
So Adrestia is just a named SR-1 without any special talents right?
One more question, where can i find those hunters? Havent played the game for a very long time, so re-discovering everything again.
Yeah, also it's unique in that it can't be recalibrated
does difficulty matters when clearing strongholds for parts?
Open World Hunters require puzzles to summon them.
Some of them require specific in-game time
Depending on which hunters you're after, you have to summon them through certain rituals. Easiest to just Google some guides
Nope, as long as it's not Story (which I don't think is even an option for invaded missions)
I'm not entirely sure why people keep asking for a new gen update when it already plays at 4k 60. What more do you want?
I've seen it numerous times, and every single time I see it as a request, I question the basic understanding of what people assume a current gen upgrade is, compared to the one they've already given.
Ubisoft still provides support to previous generation consoles which means we are limited in scope to how enemy spawns and map size is generated. The reason why we have spawn closets/doors is because of the limit to how many npcs can be deployed or active at any one time. If they dropped last gen support you could expect more enemy variety /numbers and the quality of cosmetics would increase (more polys, higher res = better detail).
Beyond this, the game already performs at frames above 60fps on PC but they too are limited to content types because of how the game is designed for last gen. One of the devs stated on twitter in response to the Chinese version having better looking clothing that if they didn't need to test and ensure stability of their content releases on last gen then you could expect better.
Was just curious lol
what did you have in mind though?
4k 60/ 1440 120 seems to be a baseline for optimised or designed with current gen in mind and yet it still doesn't appear to be enough
I was just curious about the general costs of doing something like that compared to other aspects of development
Cut last gen support and they'd have more scope to how content is designed - Descent is a grand example of the limitations they faced in design when it came down to enemy spawns and how it worked across all platforms. You'll see quite a massive leap in innovation when TD3 comes out. (No last gen support)
Does anyone know how to switch back from skill level to xp level?
so mad at myself right now got an exotic from a cache
i read others saying they have never seen it when i open caches i do it so fast i didnt notioce till after
wouldve been a nice video for my content
They probably can't even use the Chinese div 2 assets without some adjustments to accommodate PS4 and Xbox one
So yeah their hands are tied
Like, a non-exotic cache?
yeah let me double check the footage i open them so fast to get out it done
Yea you can get exotics from proficiency caches, quite rare however
conflict cache i tried it for the first time today
never seen it from a normal cache maybe chances are higher from conflict ones?
coyotes mask
is there anything i can do better on heroic countdown to get everyone through it quicker? alsready playing skill build healer with scorpio some runs the dps is so bad i think about swapping but then people die
and i use the riot foam as well
challenging is more just spam fire nades on the enemies with the collector still gotta look into how to increase grenade damage
If the enemy is dead, then your dps can't die. The best way is for you to go dps and kill the enemies faster than they can kill your teammates
didint think of it this way ill give it a shot
In almost 8k levels I've never had an exotic from a field proficiency cache (that I've noticed, I also open them fast)
Yeah same, never seen one.
It's possible you obtained one via a Project Reward or other.
Oh yea, I probably mixed it up with a similar cache, proficiency caches in div 2 seems to not give exotics
Good Afternoon Kettle👋
alos never had exotics from proficiency
definately got one from a conflict cache
normal field ones never
if i remember when i upload ill let you know but ive got 20hrs of footage to edit
Hey Saph
Depends on what you're running countdown.
Personally I've only ran dps a few times, there are usually plenty of agents running striker dps anyways. Normally running a skill type build like healer/eclipse will still have you seeing some down time due to hunter disrupts. This is why I run 100% hazpro eclipse cc.
I'm also stacking damage amps to boost the team while making everything stick in place.
Scorpio cc + 20%amp, perf opportunistic 15% amp, survivalist 10% amp to status npcs, perf sledgehammer on heavy npc
Running ongoing directive in a similar fashion would also give a bunch of damage buffs and not be dependant on skills needing to be active
So I can't start up div2 anymore unfortunately. It's giving me the message invalid executable gamefile :l:\the division 2\Tom Clancy's the division 2 \the division 2.exe.
Does anybody know how to fix it? Tried the following
Restarting pc
Verify gamefiles
Reinstall 3x
Reinstall easy anti cheat.
So far nothing is working
Hoping the fix that dumb 1000x nade spam server lag /crash crap. So many ppl use it now if the cant win
And 2 week ban every F'er who abuses it 🫠
There is a grenade spam bug now?
Yea its a bug/exploit not sure how but the throw the cluster nade but instead of 1 the throw idk maybe 50x cus it looks and sounds stuttering/and laggy and as unstable as the server already are it really messing them up
Happens more and more now when ppl cant win in pvp the start doing that
Has there been any update on why people who are normally on US East being put on US Central? There's a thread on the sub-reddit with lots of people in a similar boat.
Nothing on the trello, and I don't have an account on birdchan
I’ve been getting put in Us East a lot recently. I was in Asia last week for some reason.
Also it would be great if there were more tactical helmets
As long they're on headwear category and not put onto the masks category
And it also crashes old gen console players too
Or if they could overlap each other like the div1, it would be cool.
Yeah, its a Helmet and you wear it on your head not use it like a mask
Dune helmet suffered this iirc
Dune helmet only doesn't show a mask, regardless of it's cosmetic or gear.
It's kinda cool to breathe eclipse virus and DC-62 and say: that's fine 
Spicy air they say
Is it making a difference? I've always cycled between west/east/central and even europe at times and havent really noticed a difference.
Any new descent blueprints since Y6?
You mean this season (Y6S1)?
Yes
#td2-descent has a pinned blueprint list that has been kept up to date afaik
how fast deconstruct all mods what i picl up what are not god rolled?
inventory > mods > look at bottom for "auto deconstruct skill mods"
this will automatically decon any duplicate skill mods keeping the best quality. you can also hold z when picking them up to deconstruct immediately without having to go through your inventory.
and when i pick up 1 god roll mods its not decon 2nd god roll mod what is the same? like 6%ch i got and i get in drop 2nd one so its not go decon?
it will only auto decon skill mods. your gear mods will need to be marked manually as junk. hold z on pickup and any mods will be deconstructed. if you want to review mods first, you can use tab to pickup as junk and after review its just deconstructing junk
you have my brain curious using eclipse, the diversity in this game is amazing
Howdy
howdy mate
if you want an interesting off-meta DPS option that lets you just go brain off, try bullet king strikers
hey doomz, i got a question
ask
what exotic would be good on an LMG based build
Not to talk out of turn but, iron lung? Lmgs are way too slow for my taste
im using coyote right now, but maybe the bloody knuckles with slege could be interesting
no, bullet king
BK are only viable with Lovebirds AKA Incursion
also asking a follow up isnt out of turn amigo, its just getting more info i omitted for a better answer
yk after that buff it got its surprisingly good, ive been using bk and strikers in raids and it slaps
For me, the 4 pcs hotshot with vigilance/unstoppable force/headhunter/determined mmr is just absolute king, makes heroic with 5 directives seem like story mode
yeah but holding down on the trigger and beaming anything you see is cathartic as HELL
One tapping everything is just very satisfying
you just get to be a big sentry gun, and with strikers you can match AR damage on a 1k mag cap, with negev ROF
im just trying to make it a little more funny, and im thinking about different things that could buff it even harder or make it funnier
Haha we all have our preferences I suppose, I personally like finishing an activity quickly and moving to the next
hey whats the max damage increase on the sawyer kneepads?
to each their own, as its said, i really like spray and pray
no but ive done regulus, its interesting but i cant aim for sheisse, so its a sentry's life for me
Regulus is awesome
i can aim snipers decently, but the big iron gets 0 zoom, i prefer to just grab the biggest of guns and do a bagdump
But man, just try 4 pc hotshot with airaldi backpack vigilance, and habsburg chest with headhunter, headshot everywhere, you can thank me later
It is that good my guy
seriously though what exotic would work for an LMG?
Coyotes for crit I guess
im using coyotes right now, it never really feels like it does its thing
is there another good damage bonus exotic that could do the trick or not really
if you just want generic damage it's coyote
well its like i said, coyotes just doesnt feel like it does anything
crits are bread and butter for damage
is there an exotic that gives RoF, ammo cap, something a little more interesting?
and sawyers does shite all
ridgeway chest is in a weird limbo of being too niche
it's strong
but it's playstyle that you need to adapt to
but only fighting point blank, where it cna bleed enemies to heal you
plus it would take away muh strikers chest, which i kinda depend on at times
sawyers and ridgeway are different things
ridgeway is the blood for health exotic right?
enemies that get too close get bled to death slowly, and you heal for every nearby bleeding enemy
another one long live bullet king
ive just always loved BK
100 or even 200 shots aint nearly enough, gimme all thousand right now
anyhow sawyers works very well if you adapt to it
i think the first legendary solo clear had sawyers
i just wish sawyers could swap its heal core for a damage core
i dont need more health, i need beeg, beeg damage
where can i find possible weapon roll talents? I wanna know if my bighorn can roll as a bottom stat
exotics cant roll with different talents, the third stat now is randomized from any other regular stat
and the core stat, red yellow or blue, is also locked right
thats the one i wanna change from crit chance
core stats are locked
yknow waveform is always a yellow core, coyotes is always a red core
damnit, i really wanted a damage sawyers
what core is ridgeways pride?
red
