[inner elbow]

Wow a riddle that requires people to pay attention to the lore

[ember gale]

hmm lets see if its right.

[fresh haven]

also the fact he shits his pants and lets the facade go as soon as kelso pops up

[ebon ermine]

yeah, but it's more in reference to him projecting a tough guy persona, and then Kelso giving him skidmarks.

[fresh haven]

forgot how annoying the strategist is

[ebon ermine]

be glad he's not your commander... 🤣

[ember gale]

i wont say annoying per se. More of a "We don't need him but have to take him to weaken the enemy" type of dude

[fresh haven]

ours isn’t much better

tired of manny too

[fickle edge]

just beat potomac mission on hard didn't clear the scout mission

[ember gale]

eh i prefer ANNA xD

[ebon ermine]

So, is the "Server Shutdown Imminent" a false positive? We already crossed the 3x pts threshold... and maintenance isn't scheduled...

[fresh haven]

it’s a bug

[ebon ermine]

In this game? Impossible. 😉 🤣

[fresh haven]

maybe killing ridgeway is the riddle?

he’s quite literally he definition of bad actor

[fickle edge]

says foggy bottom

[fresh haven]

oh nvm

[ember gale]

Ok if it wasnt potomac, then could it be activities in other districts?

or is it a named boss in the open world?

[fickle edge]

dunno

[fresh haven]

foggy bottom based activities 2 weeks in a row though?

[hybrid ore]

Well there's 14 in total, so there has to be some overlap.

[ebon ermine]

doubt it. If it states "Foggy Bottom", then it has to be in there... unless it's a bug or typo...

[fickle edge]

"Explore beautiful Foggy Bottom and see if you can solve my next riddles."

[keen osprey]

Feels odd not seeing a league or global event to activate today 😒

[serene valley]

Just finised event center and its not it, maybe becasue im in group? not sure

[ebon ermine]

Try a bounty... "bad actor" could be taken as a euphemism for High Value Target

[ember gale]

why not ask Mr Yannick? After all, he's online 🙂

[hybrid ore]

Don't ping ubi staff or admins.

[serene valley]

Ill try sleep giant next, maybe he is fake sleeping lol

[ember gale]

ah of course. Sorry

[fresh haven]

maybe propapanda broadcasts?

[unborn dew]

Bad actor might be meant in the more colloquial sense but I'm not sure if that narrows it down any further lol.

[ember gale]

if PEC isnt the bad actor... then could it be one of the named bosses?

[ebon ermine]

Possible, but that would be a terrible hint, then... and Golem would have to get fired as Chief Riddle Maker.

[hybrid ore]

Do we have a Bounty Boss named Dwayne Johnson?

[unborn dew]

Like there's a lot of bad actors running around even if we just take Theo's perspective

[ember gale]

XD

[lunar hare]

We have (excuse me for this) "Dirty Bitches"

[serene valley]

Its any bounty in the Foggy Bottom, just confirmed

[fresh haven]

thank you

not a very good hint tho ngl

[serene valley]

Not a hint at all

[broken thunder]

I mean its the correct term for a female hyena

[serene valley]

I have a black tusk bounty on lol

[unborn dew]

seriously? like sure technically they'd count as bad actors but still.

[inner elbow]

yeah did, PEC, did not progress for riddle 1

[fresh haven]

2 riddle is definitely pec

[ebon ermine]

OK, I was right

[inner elbow]

wdym 2 riddle

[ebon ermine]

Complete any bounty

[inner elbow]

oh

RIP I guess I jumped the gun

[fresh haven]

2nd riddle is “This place used to be so glamorous, now it’s just full of people who want a front row seat to watch the world burn”

[heavy dirge]

that's gotta be potomac

[fresh haven]

100%

[ebon ermine]

THIS IS CORRECT

[inner elbow]

1st riddle: bounties
2nd riddle: Potomax

[long dove]

Yes is potomac

[ember gale]

thats got to be potomac

[fickle edge]

i guess bad actor are rogue agents from the bounties?

[inner elbow]

no just named enemies

[ebon ermine]

Anyone else think the Carmine mask would look better if the eyes flashed (like the Predator) every time you make a kill?

[fresh haven]

i wish the end of the journey had an outfit

[cyan narwhal]

this scout was ez

[ebon ermine]

I ran a Heroic Bounty (3 Named), and completion didn't register until the entire bounty was complete.

[little parrot]

so apparently any Underground are considered Named Enemies, lovely.

killed 2 and completed something for a project

[long dove]

The 3rd riddle lets test your skills, agent, whats need to do?

[fresh haven]

i haven’t seen a heavy underground in awhile

[little parrot]

just smoked one

[fresh haven]

those chainsaw dudes scare the shit out go me

[little parrot]

yeah they're scary when they jump ya

what's this bad actor thing for the Scout?

[ember gale]

Test your skills?

Whats the full riddle?

[long dove]

Thats all

[ebon ermine]

Complete a bounty

[little parrot]

thought as much

anywhere?

[ebon ermine]

no. Foggy Bottom. Where it says... lol

[little parrot]

ah, didn't read that bit, my bad

I just went straight to the activities and glossed over the rest

[ember gale]

test your skills

15 skill kills?

[latent talon]

Yes

[fickle edge]

the 1st activity still doesn't make sense

[odd totem]

Anyone know where scout 2 starts?

[native tusk]

sc2 act1 = bounty on foggy bottom. sc2 act2 = potomac event center. sc2 act3 = ??? (does anybody knows what "test your skill" means)

[hybrid ore]

Sounds like Skill Kills.

[native tusk]

thanks

[fickle edge]

yup 15 skill kills

has to be in foggy bottom too

[late bronze]

Anyone else having REALLY loud audio from rifles?

When other people use rifles?

[acoustic minnow]

um

an update? for a 4 years old game?

[warm minnow]

Audio bug

[lunar hare]

I don't hear anything, rifles are mute to me

[inner elbow]

oooh, new oversight by devs: the weekly scouts progress is account-wide. meaning if you did week 1 on an agent, you can do week 2 on another agent, and miss out on the first week's comms
ecksdee

[tiny oar]

It's updated every season

[acoustic minnow]

ooh

i didn't know i am sorry

[keen osprey]

Is this sarcasm?

[acoustic minnow]

i thought it's like L4D2 thing

[karmic copper]

bounties reset only daily? if i dont have any in foggy bottom need to see tommorow?

[keen osprey]

We were technically left for dead back in December 2020 when they intended to halt support. Few devs rallied around and pushed to keep going, by that stage there was less than 5 people left. It took over a year of re running Seasons 1-4 before we had any new content, since then there's been a new season update every 3-4months.

@acoustic minnow

[fickle edge]

Do a public execution and make sure both hostage are alive those give bounties

[acoustic minnow]

my bad big guy i didn't know

[ebon ermine]

Yup.

[rotund mantle]

Anyone figure out the new scouts yet? (before we can meet, i need you to take care of a bad actor)

[ebon ermine]

scroll up

[inner elbow]

just complete a public execution, hostage rescue, or find the Snitch

[rotund mantle]

@ebon ermine did you type it?

[ebon ermine]

#td2-general-chat message

[echo cloud]

okay, weird. just had a countdown with 7 man so i expected it to be a bit challenging. we killed the hunters and full clear with over 2 minutes left on the clock while waiting for helicopter. never seen enemies melt so fast. someone in the group was doing hacker-like dmg, but i dont know why. looks like everyone was using striker

[odd totem]

Thank you

[hybrid ore]

@echo cloud A few proper builds in CD, and enemies fall apart like tissue-paper

[serene valley]

Just what is the current capacity of the server, getting kick out every hour is absurd

[echo cloud]

well yeah i know, ive done quite a bit of countdown so i know what to expect. but i did not expect this. not at all.

[hybrid ore]

Challenging is the "lowest possible difficulty" once you're at endgame, so combine that with the buffs you get in CD and a fully worked out build, and you can sprint through it.

[inner elbow]

challenging is brain-off moment for a lot of people

[echo cloud]

i play it only in heroic

[hybrid ore]

See also: a well organised speed-run of Lincoln on Heroic.

[fresh haven]

heroic is also kinda brain off sometimes

[inner elbow]

see also: @dien

[echo cloud]

ive literally never done countdown a single time on anything else than heroic

[balmy knot]

Anyone online rn that can help me with a mission

[ebon ermine]

Not uncommon... cheaters, that is. Not saying that it was for certain in your case, but they do make frequent appearances. Some are more subtle, and you have to actively observe their gaming behavior to confirm for yourself.

[fresh haven]

what mission

[echo cloud]

that would be my educated guess in this scenario too

the dmg seemed way too high to be normal

[hybrid ore]

As long as you're fast with it, Heroic CD can absolutely be your primary way to run it.
However: the important thing is to remain as fast as possible, since CD lacks Directives, the idea with farming it is sheer speed.

[fiery jacinth]

any idea what is the new first riddle in the scouts?

[hybrid ore]

Bounty.

[fresh haven]

any bounty in foggy bottom

[fiery jacinth]

random bounty?

[hybrid ore]

We suspect that it was supposed to be for the 2nd one, as it references a "bad actor".

[fiery jacinth]

and i was doing the mission thinking it was was the guy kelso cought

[hybrid ore]

That is the 2nd one, annoyingly.

[fiery jacinth]

frik xd

[hybrid ore]

At least it'll help count towards the "do it 10 times" challenge.

[heady bramble]

I dont evne have any bounties in foggy bottom on the character I've been using!!

[fresh haven]

hope we hear about resurgence soon i’ve been itching for anything Division related for awhile

[hybrid ore]

Public Executions, Hostage Rescue, The Snitch, all drop Bounties.

[ebon ermine]

Once in a while, it can be the result of the permutation of the triple-buff and experienced players... but if the extra damage is localized to a single individual or small group (ie. clanmates), then it becomes suspicious.

[hybrid ore]

If you have none, try capturing 2 CP's within Foggy, and then wait for a Hostage Rescue to spawn.

@ebon ermine It's not that compliated, it's just a Striker build or similar.
Challenging is very, very easy once you know how it works.

A team that focuses on the objectives first and foremost will finish them much faster than the majority of teams that try to rack up kills.

[dense marsh]

anybody figure out the hints for scout 2 yet?

[ebon ermine]

You guys should really learn to scroll... lol #td2-general-chat message

[hybrid ore]

No need to be rude.

[dense marsh]

how far up

got it, thanks

[ebon ermine]

np

[hybrid ore]

@balmy knot You're looking for #lfg-playstation, GL Agent

[keen osprey]

Which one?

|| #1 is a bounty in foggy ||

|| #2 is potomac event mission ||

#3 no idea

#3 says test your skills 0 of 15 but I don't think it means skill kills because it doesn't count towards the seekers

[safe jungle]

there is NO bounty in foggy man

[ebon ermine]

farm one, then... public execution

[echo cloud]

farming for ninjabike backpack is really frustrating

im like 10 countdowns in and not a single exotic

the loot pool is simply too big

[hybrid ore]

Make sure you're buing Exotic Caches from the CD vendor every few runs, and also that you're playing CD on challenging or higher.

[echo cloud]

i am

[ember gale]

It is skill kills. Just use drone and turret

[keen osprey]

Exotics drop from the priority objectives too, they've given us so many more avenues to earn exotics now than they ever have.

[echo cloud]

countdown really does my head in after a while

[keen osprey]

Then don't play it

Donate to SHD requisition project and do the 15 floors of summit each week for 2 chances.

Do priority objectives marked with the red "Equipment item" text.

Target backpacks in open world or mission when it's in rotation.

[echo cloud]

target farming is becoming harder every time they add new content

since the loot pool is growing

[keen osprey]

The loot pool may be growing but there have been no exotic backpacks since the ninja so your chances are still there for exotic drop

[echo cloud]

theres 3 exotic bags

and literally every brand and gear set has backpacks

i think backpack has to be the biggest loot pool of them all

[ebon ermine]

yeah, and it's just going to get worse... same with Expertise upgrades... Hypothetically, if you have four full characters and a full stash, you would need 7200 exotic components just to bring everything up to L27 from L26... and that doesn't even include skills and Signature weapons...

[outer spade]

huh

[ebon ermine]

900 items x 8 = 7200

[keen osprey]

Targeted loot on summit with additional directives grant a higher chance for a targeted item to drop with a random piece of gear. There is also a smaller percentage chance to drop an exotic targeted loot item, since there's only 3 exotic bags you have a 1 in 3 chance for it to be the ninja.

[tropic sentinel]

Ninja trashbag is not worth farming anyway. It's only useful for couple goofy builds.

[echo cloud]

L take

[tropic sentinel]

If you're not building some regen tank or specific skill builds, what else you're gonna use it for?

[ebon ermine]

That presupposes an equal distribution of outcomes, though. They use weighted. 😒

[echo cloud]

rifles. better shield tier and permanently uptime "vigilance" via 1 (2) piece breakpoint etc

[tropic sentinel]

If you like having less dps I suppose it works for you.

[echo cloud]

i mean

you just ignored everything i said so

[keen osprey]

Unironically I just received the ninja bag from a boss drop at the end of jefferson plaza 😂

[echo cloud]

:(

congrats.. happy for you.. nice..

[broken thunder]

I dont understand how people have finnshed the journey alreay. Im just slowly picking away at the kill x with x modify

[ebon ermine]

It's going to take a while to get a Ninja backpack through CD exo caches, but it's your highest probability

[keen osprey]

It's not too difficult if you cheese it. I'm now on the final (7) mission but it's proving to be less interesting for me to grind since it's a cosmetic reward. There's some tips for them on YouTube. I had to kill 100 snipers at long range and a certain area of invaded bank hq spawns two so you just have to snipe them and blow yourself up 50 times. Not fun at all. 😆

[ebon ermine]

That's how most of my drops occur

[broken thunder]

yike

[tropic sentinel]

Easy. Just quit job/school and social life.

[keen osprey]

Do I need to Google those terms or would you be a doll and explain them? 🤭

[ebon ermine]

lol which pretty much sums up the game

[keen osprey]

Sums up gaming in general these days

Any game with a battle pass basically

They want you to engage.

Ubisoft ceo is always harping on about "per consumer spend" and "engagement hours" meaning they want both of those numbers to increase over time.

More time played +/= more money spent.

[tropic sentinel]

Well technically this journey is meant to be completed in ~3 months. People are rushing for no reason really.

[spare cove]

I feel like some of y'all hate playing looter shooter games

[keen osprey]

In terms of the division, they've finally hired someone new to do the money side of things because.. look at how shit the value of that 30 premium plus pass is and the lack of an apparel event but likely a good 10/12 outfits cycled thru the store at 10/15€ per.

They know what they're doing.

[keen osprey]

Oh for sure, and they knew it was going to happen but I think they assumed that the season pass would be grind proof this time around

Add in a monotonous multi part grind system + slow burning battle pass earning and you have "content" for 4 months.

Finish all that in a week due to cheesing + broken system and you more or less reveal that it's smoke and mirrors.

[ebon ermine]

Yeah, they basically copy-pasted COD's MTXs, something they initially stated they weren't going to do.

[keen osprey]

I despise them, but the division is different story wise.

[tropic sentinel]

Oh there won't be apparel events? Didn't even notice.

[keen osprey]

I noticed they extended the end time for that clown bundle too

[ebon ermine]

Yeah. Removed.

[low lily]

Removed when

[keen osprey]

Unfortunately not. They cited that they can make money elsewhere so no need for apparel events (apparently they made money off those, despite most people earning them thru levels) I personally have never once put a single penny into an apparel event outfit.

With that being said. Expect that Bundles section in store to come stocked with a new outfit you must pay for every fortnight.

And that Stalker 2 collection coming in November likely 10€ an outfit.

[ebon ermine]

This season. You can confirm the scheduled events on the furthest right tab

[low lily]

Damnn

[tropic sentinel]

My biggest gripe so far is how they "revamped" referral program. As old player you can no longer get stinger LMG blueprint. Or any other og rewards.

Meanwhile new players can get both.

[keen osprey]

The season schedule is only filled up until 11 weeks from now, even though there are 20 weeks of the season left. Could likely see more events added at that point or weekly global events

[keen osprey]

In fairness the system has existed for years - just in a broken state; I never earned anything and support said the devs would solve it - they never did.

You can buy the stinger outfit in game with textiles but you miss out on the trophies and as you say the Lmg & BP.

Oddly they still have the stinger and enforcer listed in the expertise section despite them not being obtainable through gameplay.

[spare cove]

Yes, they added those new rthings because they hate you and want you dead. /s

[keen osprey]

I've also given this a go and it doesn't count.

[tropic sentinel]

Yes I had the bug myself, that's why I got excited for that revamp, hoping they would fix issues. But the result was less than satisfying so to speak.. Unless they revamp the revamp, those pieces are locked out forever now.

Which is quite unfair tbh, seeing how day 1 players can easily get everything. They should've added original rewards for everyone who bought the game prior revamp or something. Or give everything to referrer.

[spare cove]

Do it in Foggy Bottom

[tropic sentinel]

But at this point I would not be surprised if they just add some bundle for sale with those pieces.

[iron gust]

You can't buy it rn for textiles it's either a bug (been like this for months) or they changed their minds

[keen osprey]

I am a tit. Ty

[tropic sentinel]

Probably part of revamp.

[keen osprey]

I was able to at the time. Is it premium credits now?

[ebon ermine]

I would not be surprised if they disregard that entirely and only bring out new bundles with non preexisting vanities.

[iron gust]

Yep only premium now. Intended or not that's the situation for a couple of months now

[tropic sentinel]

I think selling that outfit with textiles was unintended.

[echo cloud]

nonsense, there are no bugs in divison

[ebon ermine]

Different operating policies at the time

[tropic sentinel]

Obviously, only features.

[iron gust]

Probably but not going to get any goodwill with the player base either

[tropic sentinel]

Those deltas in NY are just surprise mechanics.

[iron gust]

The referral program is a downgrade, outfit is a uniform, bag is nice though but not better than the hunter bundle

[tropic sentinel]

Yeah they put good stuff for new players. Like a lot of changes are focused to wards them now. I guess they rather milk temporary newcomers, instead of keeping vets engaged.

[neat lantern]

Does anyone know why my journey or priority objectives don't show (+10%) xp anymore ?

Like I'm sure it was there before even in scouts.

[echo cloud]

lol the absolute idiocracy behind this rancid dog shit.. i play with modifiers off because i think its the worst thing that has ever happened. i call backup middle of tidal basin herioc. random guy joins me, and the modifiers get turned on.. so i have to leave and restard

there is literally no excuse

[broken thunder]

Leaving and restarting feels abit much

like my dude you called for backup

[echo cloud]

id rather sod0mize myself with a dried pineapple fruit than play with these modifiers

[tropic sentinel]

There are like 2 people playing without modifiers, so probably just solo stuff.

[broken thunder]

I honestly dont understand that kind of reaction. ive been playing with them on and I dont feel that they are as bad as people say. (unless the ui bugs out)

[remote pecan]

a lot of ppl turned them off, but you can't progress the journey without having them off at the later stages

[broken thunder]

reflect sucks
the dmg reduction isnt that huge so you can still kill them
shock ammo is uhh... but most fights are mid range so nothing happens
the movement speed one is a joke and doesnt do anything tbh.

the plus side is that some of the dmg boosts from personal modifyers are wacky as hell

Like the worst thing to happen is a heavy rolls reflect and you have to wait abit before they get into close range to kill them

or you dont pay attention and get nuked. that happens sometimes to lol

[silent nymph]

So with this new scout where do I find this "bad actor"? Like do I gotta do the whole Potomac event center or do I gotta get another CP here

[kind veldt]

Bounty

[silent nymph]

Oh, so I guess after that it's the Potomac event center

[lime karma]

and if there are no bounties in Foggy Bottom?

[tender wave]

Do a public execution or hostage rescue activity in the area

[lime karma]

Oh! that kind of bounty .... ty

[kind veldt]

Could swear you had an special bounty when you reached that objective

[remote pecan]

nope this is how manhunts worked before, but with the new scouts it isn't the case

[formal flame]

idk how many people have noticed this but a lot of the store is only premium credits now

i had multiple collections i was nearly done and just needed to get around to buying the last items with my textiles and now i cant

[echo cloud]

how do i know when/where the DZ supply drops arrive?

its been so long since i did DZ i dont remember

[tender wave]

Watch the map, listen for the isac announcements

[tropic sentinel]

I think the best bet is to get lucky and join empty DZ. Which gives DZ drop instantly.

[echo cloud]

does it have to be invaded?

[vivid geyser]

So should sniping 2 shot a juggernaut

[kind veldt]

With the right build and right aim

[echo cloud]

what you mean? headhunter does it easily.. one shot the helm then the head

[alpine lantern]

is theo third activity is roosevelt island?

[vivid geyser]

Point and click build activate

[echo cloud]

yes

[grand blade]

WTF, are they serious? No new events for 3 weeks... They really planned this brilliantly sigh

All their talk of keeping the players engaged, and then they do this??? 😂

[solid hinge]

Question. I am trying to do math and the expertise on my guns is making things a little wonky.
Say if it's expertise 18, is that a static 18% damage gain from it's base damage before my build modifiers?

[weak rock]

yea

it’s equivalent to like red core weapon damage increases

[solid hinge]

Because I thought to multiply it by .82 to try to bring the number back down to base value but that literally sounds wrong

[weak rock]

base damage x weapon damage (red cores, expertise)…

and so on

[solid hinge]

Got it.

It's fun to see the vector tac/smg 9 dethrone the ouro

I just can't see to find accurate data on the invisible hand.

Had one yesterday and I crunched it like a damned idiot

[weak rock]

it should just be the same as the aug it’s based on

[solid hinge]

The patch notes thingy only has 1 Aug listed. Wasn't there like... 2 others?

Or I may be thinking the aug smg's

[kind veldt]

are you thinking of the exotic one?

[pliant sentinel]

how is bad actor related to foggy bottom btw

[iron gust]

Yeah I noticed a while back they removed items from the apparel caches and now less items to buy with textiles. I vote with my wallet not buying the season pass or new cosmetics

[alpine lantern]

theo third activity is potomac center with skill kills..

[hybrid gust]

keep getting cd mid mission, base, thought it was goine but back again

*dced

[remote pecan]

just skill kills

[solid hinge]

No, just trying to get an accurate read of the dps of the invisible hand.

It might actually be best in slot for normal raid sets now if I matched it correctly. Not considering strikers for it tho bc it's fire rate is not quite enough to sustain it, except for final IH/dh with acs/vector tac

[remote pecan]

it's just added to your normal weapon damage, there is no multiplicative factor
like if you have 90% all weapon damage and 25% assault rifle damage you end up at 115% + expertise 18% (in your example) = 133%

133% / 115% = ~14,8% actual increase in damage

[solid hinge]

What if I wanna reverse wngineer the number to compare base damage of say my f2000 to compare it to the invisible hand?

My f2k is 18, so I don't know how I would go about reverse engineering the number

[remote pecan]

so your UI damage number divided by the 133% in this specific example

[solid hinge]

Mind if I dm you?

[kind veldt]

was talking about the other aug variants you could be thinking

[solid hinge]

Yeah I thought there were more

[remote pecan]

not at all, just dm me 😉

[coarse swan]

Do you guys have seen the return of delta 3 specially in New York ?

[weak rock]

yea there’s the smg ones and the ar ones

there’s a bunch

[dreamy escarp]

So week 2 of the Manhunt, and it is my understanding that the "bad actor" is Romeo, that I hve to go after in Foggy Bottom- my main character has no bounties avaialble in Foggy Bottom and my second doesn't show Romeo- Any thoughts, suggestions? Thanks

[tiny oar]

yeah ny is doomed atm

[tender wave]

Think it's just any bounty in foggy bottom, not a manhunt specific one like previous seasons

[dreamy escarp]

I will give it a shot- Thanks

That worked!

[vale rune]

I try that too:)

[iron gust]

Yaahl holster at the clan vendor

[vale rune]

Have to try again cause stupud delta error

[tropic sentinel]

Didn't they make a "fix" to remove yahl from clan vendors? At least they are that incompetent.

[iron gust]

Yeah one patch said it was removed it's been for sale like 3 times now since 🤣

[astral eagle]

Not seeing any bounty available in Foggy, so jus do any bounty is what your suggesting?

[tender wave]

It probably has to be in foggy bottom so I guess farm up a bounty by completing a public execution or hostage rescue activity in the same area

[grand dove]

Delta's in ny finally on trello

[formal flame]

i mean, have they?

i still get higher numbers with my ouro than either vector 45 or smg 9 with optimist

[vale ingot]

I havent played for about a year, is there anything new??

[formal flame]

what a silly question !

[vale ingot]

haha

[grand dove]

https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/1gjj5hb/new_or_returning_player_welcome_back_to_the/

[vale ingot]

how recent is it

[grand dove]

Made yesterday

[vale rune]

Eh the second riddle is something about Theater?

[vale ingot]

oh damn alot

is it worth me getting back into it you think?

[formal flame]

yes

[grand blade]

I would wait a week or two

There are way too many bugs right now, and no interesting events until about 3 weeks from now.

[vale rune]

Second riddle, manhunt week2

[formal flame]

scroll up dude people were talking about it b4

[echo cloud]

how do i know if a territory control is elite or not?

[formal flame]

it will say in the name

[vale rune]

Ive done bounty dont know what comes after

[formal flame]

theres one in the north east corner of west potomac park most of the time

[remote pecan]

for something gamebreaking really a shame it took so long, not even listed as critical

[iron gust]

Potomac event center

[vale rune]

Ok i give it a try, mission:) thanks

[echo cloud]

ok.. i dont see one now tho

will it be called "elite territory..."?

[formal flame]

yes

cant send a screenshot in this channel but more or less yeah

[echo cloud]

could any of the unknown activitiy be that?

[astral eagle]

Respect bro

[formal flame]

maybe

the symbol looks like a territory control with a circle around it

[echo cloud]

then there arent any in washington atm..

[formal flame]

then go to new york ..

[solid hinge]

Are they all optimized and have the proficiency levels that your ouro has?

[formal flame]

hell no i realised that after sending this lol

tho still seems kinda competitive

[grand dove]

I agree

[solid hinge]

Side note for priority objectives. What counts as hostage rescue activities? Public executions don't

[echo cloud]

none in new york either 👌

[formal flame]

then wait for one to appear

[grand dove]

Why would you try and do that to someone? 😭

[formal flame]

i spent all day in ny doing 15 control points 😮‍💨

[spark gulch]

Look for the green handcuffs, those are the rescue missions. Usually they spawn in areas where you already captured the control points.

[solid hinge]

Heard

[formal flame]

theyre called hostage rescues, should be green or red hadncuffs

[grand dove]

That's fortunate. I spent 30 mins and new york and was kicked.

[quaint hamlet]

we now only have a league every 3-4 weeks ?

[formal flame]

also has anyone tried out cold relations or pp bzion in general after buffs? getting kinda similar numbers to vector and smg9

wouldnt be better but seems more than viable

[formal flame]

no more leagues

[echo cloud]

usable but cannot remotely compete with dark winter

[formal flame]

for pve maybe, dark winter not as viable in pvp

[grand blade]

Ubisoft Support is living up to all the cliches of support everywhere right now. It's insane...

[echo cloud]

pvp is generally not viable in this game 😂

[formal flame]

for pve now dark winter may as well be the only smg in existence

[remote pecan]

I marked you one that always spawns for me in the #ask-td2-community

[echo cloud]

ty

[real creek]

So good for 1v1s...

[small spear]

man i love using it just to kill a helicopter and then the stage ends and i spend 30 seconds running to the next spawn...

[echo cloud]

this is true. it beats most, if not almost all AR's as well imo

[real creek]

100% best 1v1 SMG

[sharp tinsel]

Backfire is way better than DW 😉

[echo cloud]

not even

u lose so much damage from gear stats by using backfire

to prevent bleed

[sharp tinsel]

Wanna challenge with me in a mission to see who can do most damage at the end?

[echo cloud]

troll gimmick gun, never been and never will be good

[formal flame]

u get it back tho from talent

[echo cloud]

cant change my mind

[formal flame]

lol backfire now is actually dangerous

[azure lintel]

Are the servers still choppy after the update this morning?

[sharp tinsel]

Wrong that’s bc u don’t know how to build 😉

[real creek]

Backfire is pretty good for certain things now.

[echo cloud]

if u say say

[formal flame]

better hazpro brand bonuses and ninjabike make it good now

[real creek]

Sounds like you aren't going to listen to any reason so eh

[remote pecan]

delta issue isn't resolved yet

[formal flame]

ceska having 20 and 5.11 and uzina having 30 each is what saves it

[real creek]

Don't even need haz pro for the backfire now.

[sharp tinsel]

Join me in a mission run on heroic with 2-4 directive active 😉

[formal flame]

although for pve u dont need to max hazpro

[echo cloud]

its simple math

[real creek]

You need 0 haz pro added to your build.

[formal flame]

in pvp u still want to

[sharp tinsel]

No not even using hazpro lol

[azure lintel]

I could barely play all week

[real creek]

Math you aren't going to listen to.

[sharp tinsel]

Yeah in pvp u do but I’m not pvper just pve 😉

[formal flame]

im 50/50 so im speaking for both

either way, backfire is competitive now

[sharp tinsel]

Challenge me with your DW build vs my backfire anytime in a mission

[echo cloud]

trashfire*

[sharp tinsel]

I don’t do sheet test like most do, the actual dmg are on the battle field 😉

[real creek]

Gunner or the 10% AOK is enough to make that bleed not matter and considering it's 100 hits to get full stacks it's worth it for certain content.

[sharp tinsel]

Sure just bc you’re lack of experience on how to build 😉

[echo cloud]

bro spamming snide emoji is shortcut to blocklist, happy hunting

[formal flame]

why dont yall send screenshots run it up build for build

[sharp tinsel]

What a pity lol

[remote pecan]

what changed that makes it viable now?

[real creek]

This guy is always like this so I wouldn't mind them.

[real creek]

It stacks in 100 shots vs 200 shots.

[formal flame]

now only need 100 stacks to reach full 200% chd

which means even at max stacks if u reload ur only losing 50% armour not 100%

[remote pecan]

oh okay, that's a pretty significant change

[sharp tinsel]

Backfire don’t even need need hazpro if you know how to build to bypass the bleed resist

[real creek]

So the thing about backfire is you don't bleed once at max stacks.

[formal flame]

if u wait for them to go away

if u reload u do

[sharp tinsel]

I’m challenge him but he so scared he had to blocked me just bc I’m using emojis;) that’s funny

[real creek]

backfires buff goes away after not doing damage for 10 seconds.

[tiny oar]

you do on reload

[small spear]

I've been asking for this backfire buff forever. if they buff the stack gain rate or stack decay to happen for 20s or more it would be fire. and they buffed the stack gain rate

[real creek]

No you don't.

[small spear]

he knows

[vale rune]

Lets test your skills means using drone to kill enemies on mission or?

[tiny oar]

[sharp tinsel]

Like I said I’ll challenge anyone using DW build vs my backfire 😉

[real creek]

Once at max stacks you do not bleed on reload.

[tiny oar]

yes you do

[formal flame]

?

[small spear]

you don't

[tiny oar]

i've been plenty of times at max stacks and bled

[true cypress]

Hey what's happening people, I hope everyone is good.

[small spear]

you can try it again, could be a recent change too

[tiny oar]

they changed that too now ?

[formal flame]

just tested it, you bleed after reloading the first time u reach 100 stacks, but subsequent reloads on 100 stacks u dont

[tiny oar]

then its a bug

you're supposed to bleed

[sharp tinsel]

My ingame trindynasty always whisper me and have a challenge on how your DW is better than backfire on pve and I’m not even use hazpro 😉

[vale rune]

Manhunt riddle means what, test skills? Using a skill build and kill enemies on a mission or?

[formal flame]

just get skill kills

[formal flame]

likely

either way kinda cool, certianly makes it more viable to run without hazpro

[full zinc]

not a bug. if stack level is the same as last reload then no bleed

[formal flame]

how would that be intended tho?

[full zinc]

you bleed based on the difference

[formal flame]

so you bleed based on stacks gained, not the total stacks?

[full zinc]

yeah

[formal flame]

i feel like thats gotta be even more unintended lol

[grand blade]

Lol, talking with support has to be one of the dumbest conversations I have ever had...

[full zinc]

its been like that for a long time

[sharp tinsel]

Just because you can’t build a right gears for backfire doesn’t mean backfire is trash fire right @echo cloud. how small brain you are just bc you think your DW is better and challenge me can’t even accept my challenge instead of make up some excuse to blocked me with my 😉 lol

[tiny oar]

i didnt got that, i was at max stack a lot of the time and got bleed everytime

description def says its supposed to make you bleed no matter what

[vale rune]

Its not counting skill kill manhunt riddle wrong answer i think but nice try. Anyone know what last riddle means on manhunt today

[formal flame]

thats what someone else said, maybe its skill kills in a mission

[real creek]

Well I'm telling you what it does currently.

[remote pecan]

stay in foggy bottom?

[vale rune]

Ohja i try foggy button mission thanks

[tiny oar]

yeah but im telling you its not intended

might be patched soon

[undone timber]

It's been like that for forever they'd have patched it by now

[real creek]

Where on trello?

[formal flame]

or they didnt patch it coz it's a niche weapon 90% of players wouldnt even touch until recent updates

for ages i didnt even think about the thing, like someone else said seemed gimmicky

[vale rune]

Works:)

[tiny oar]

not every bug is on trello

[vale rune]

Thanks gys

[remote pecan]

tbh the description could just be wrong or misleading, doesn't mean it is not intented

[tiny oar]

thats how it worked before

[formal flame]

how long b4 tho

[tiny oar]

since when it was introduced ?

[formal flame]

idk these guys saying its been this way a while

[remote pecan]

are you 100% sure, could be just you almost never reached 200 stacks, so you always gained stacks that made you bleed

[tiny oar]

i reached a lot of times 200 stacks

[formal flame]

i thought i remembered it working how u say too but in game it clearly doesnt right now

[tiny oar]

its not hard especially in firing range

[real creek]

Well it currently doesn't. idk what else to tell you

As for it being a bug or not, unless it hits the trello I'm not considering it a bug. It's probably the only way it'll be a viable weapon tbh.

[tiny oar]

yes, i get that, but its not a changed anounced or even hinted, description is the same, and there is a lot of bugs happenning rn, so i wouldnt consider it a balance change and rather a bug

they did a balance change for backfire, but its reducing max stacks

not for deleting the bleed

[real creek]

It's a proper reward for hitting max stacks tho.

[tender wave]

Just call it a feature and be done with it (until/unless they change it again)

[full zinc]

this has been a thing for a couple years at least

[latent stone]

There are no bugs in ba sing se

Only features

[formal flame]

either way, imo shouldnt be in the game

[tiny oar]

yeah

[full zinc]

feature

[formal flame]

tbh kinda situationally OP, would be better if they took it out and made stacks last a little longer

[full zinc]

you need to keep engaging , so yeah, definitely situational

but its been like that for a long time... most ppl just dont use backfire or dont ever reach max

[formal flame]

but also definitely OP in those situations, 200% chd with no trade off?

[tender wave]

Can always report it on the support discord or open a ticket if you want to bring it to devs attention

[full zinc]

the trade off was geting to the 200

[formal flame]

which now is only 100, thats barely 2 magazines

[full zinc]

before buff it was 4 massive bleeds

[sinful kiln]

Any help with recon 2 for manhunt?

[formal flame]

and now 2 small ones, a total of hafl your armour one off for 200% chd as long as u can sustain it'

if ur somewhere like incursion or countdown theres always gonna be enemies to shoot

[full zinc]

its kinda right there with striker chest, in most situations youll probably reach max when everything is dead.. .

[remote pecan]

yep, I think most people didn't realize it before, now that you reach max stacks much faster it easier to see

[formal flame]

but strikers chest ur always losing stacks rapidly, u need to keep going just to cancel out the decay, backfire u need just need to be hitting 1 shot every <10 seconds and youll stay full

[undone timber]

Now that it's easier to stack I can see it being worth building for longer engagements

[formal flame]

for sure

i already drafted a backfire build when i heard about the buffs, gonna expedite that shit now

[full zinc]

i still personally wouldnt bother with backfire tho. just not worth the hassle even if its much easier to use

backfire < mortar

[formal flame]

run it with like 2% armour regen and a catharsis u wont even notice the bleed

[grand blade]

Man, I am so angry right now. Support might actually end up being what makes me quit the game. It is literally one of the dumbest things I have ever experienced, and I have been on this ball of dirty for almost 50 years now...

[formal flame]

whats all the hassle for

[real creek]

Sounds like they just need to vent.

[undone timber]

almighty mortar

[formal flame]

i mean what caused their grievance with support

[real creek]

Regulus is a mortar bullet...

[formal flame]

mortar bullet hits the entire map

and bleeds

[undone timber]

why settle for bullet when you can have shell that makes thunk noises

[grand blade]

They have had one of my characters "locked" behind a DELTA-04 error for almost a week now. Clearly, the issue is related to this particular character, likely something in the inventory. And they keep asking for more info, suggesting it is connectivity issues, local software issues, and anything else irrelevant you might think of.

[undone timber]

besides ill never be able to tame regulus

[real creek]

Become the regu chad...

[formal flame]

regulus being chad is a myth lowkey

[tender wave]

Was the character in NY? Maybe even running the NY missions for the first time?
Either way, pretty sure I saw someone else having the same issue a few days ago (unless that was you as well)

[grand blade]

We are currently two people having this issue. That I am aware of

[undone timber]

ill try sir

[grand blade]

And no, not in NYC. She was by the white house chopper when I last logged out

[undone timber]

i can laser heads in div1 but not this im starting to think its fov or something

[real creek]

https://trello.com/c/2h2UU1Ik

It's a known bug.

The NY delta stuff at least.

[grand blade]

Yeah the DELTA-03 bug has been known since day one. But only officially recognized since today.

[tender wave]

Yeah but not even being able to log in is not common, it could stem from the same cause though

[grand blade]

Day one of the update

[smoky meteor]

Oh god.. Another set of new clues to guess... I'm too dumb to figure these out. lol

[tiny oar]

patch day = no play

as usual

[remote pecan]

sounds like the PTS issue

[grand blade]

I think the worst part is being jerked around by support. That has really brought me over the edge

[tiny oar]

support cant really help on bugs

they arent devs

[real creek]

I don't think I've ever seen support help in any meaningful way.

[spare cove]

||Objective 1 - Complete a bounty in Foggy Bottom||

||Objective 2 - Do the Potomac Event Center mission||

|Objective 3 - Kill 15 enemies using skills in Foggy Bottom||

[full zinc]

support is just reading a script and actually has no idea wtf is going on, ever

[smoky meteor]

I mean, in almost every game, Support is literally there to help you gain access to your account again, or unstuck a character. They can't help with game bugs. lol

[tiny oar]

they can help for billing issues, but thats about it

[tiny oar]

not in live service games

[tender wave]

Ubi fired loads of support staff a year or so ago, I think they're likely very understaffed (and probably struggle to hold on to competent and experienced support staff)

[remote pecan]

maybe you could do a spoiler tag around it 😄

[tiny oar]

in live service, support is basically useless

in single player games or steam, they have actual access to the game/account

ubi support isnt dedicated to the division

it cant do anything about it

beside catalog the reports for the devs

[remote pecan]

there was this issue at the pts, where some of us got a DELTA-04 and couldn't log in at all
so I guess it is some kind of related, maybe you can reach daria or someone from the div2 staff on X/twitter

[spare cove]

Okay, I'm gonna say this once cuz I hate repeating myself.

When you got the Manhunt menu, there's a top right menu that blatantly tells you which area you need to go to do the scout objectives

Hawkster

[tiny oar]

hawkster is the one running on the treadmill that power the servers

[smoky meteor]

Oh, I know which area to look in, but I'm just stupid and so while Week 1's clues were easy, this one has me feeling dumber than normal. lol

[spare cove]

No, I'm the errand boy who answers people's questions

😛

[tiny oar]

and the lore guy

the coms guy more precicely

[grand blade]

Holy sh**! After I asked the same question 3 times in a row, support finally answered it, and said that they don't have the ability to access a player's characters or characters' inventories LMFAO!

Even 10 years ago in WoW they were able to do that. And Ubi can't do it in 2024 🤣

[full zinc]

im surprised you even got that

usually an easy week turnaround on a ticket

[grand blade]

27 days and 17 hours on this character, and I might actually end up having to delete it. Unbelievable...

[tender wave]

Wait until the the NY problem is fixed at least, might solve it for you

[remote pecan]

I think in some rare instances you can contact staff, especially when it is something like this or maybe mention it to the support workers and hopefully they can get in contact with the devs to resolve this isssue

and like I said, PTS had this DELTA04 issue with logins too

[azure lintel]

Wouldn’t delete a character over a self-diagnosed issue lol

[grand blade]

Well, clearly support can't do the diagnosis. So you kinda have to rely on own experience, which seems to extend beyond theirs hahaha

[grand blade]

If I had a way to contact staff. I might have a lot more to tell them 😛

[grand blade]

So, just wait another month or two? 😁 No, I hear you. Just really pissed off right now by the treatment they give you. At least they could have talked to me with some respect.

[floral herald]

yo. so i used to play the first division game alot, is the division 2 as good or enjoyable as the first one? im not big on PVP so is the PVE any good?

[grand blade]

I am a solo (PVE) player, and I love the game, a lot. When it is working 🙂

[floral herald]

When it is working? Whys that? Got performance issues?

[rotund mantle]

@floral herald I wouldn't say that

[grand blade]

But as I told someone else, I would probably wait a week or two before buying it. There are a lot of errors right now since the last update, and they need time to iron them out.

[floral herald]

Its on sale so i was thinking of getting it if humble choice isnt good this month

[grand blade]

It actually runs really smoothly most of the time. Just have some issues now and again, usually when they try to change things up.

[floral herald]

I mean it is a Ubisoft game so bugs after updates are a common thing

I haven’t played any shooter or pvp games in awhile

[grand blade]

True haha

[floral herald]

The ultimate edition extras worth it?

Or do i just get the regular

[grand blade]

Tbh, I have more love than grievances for the game. So if it is on sale, it could be worth it. Even if just to keep it in your archive for a bit before starting on it 🙂

[smoky meteor]

Steam has everything on sale. Even D1 is on sale, which made me laugh because I forgot that D1 is still like 30 bucks.

[exotic panther]

gonna be another week of delta in ny it seems

[grand blade]

I would say the ultimate edition is worth it. It will let you unlock 3 of the specializations right away. Which adds some really fun game play 😉

[floral herald]

The pvp still as toxic as ever?

[grand blade]

I think that is just a part of PVP in general hahaha

[merry zinc]

there’s not a single pvp game that isn’t ‘toxic’

[tropic sentinel]

Concord.

[smoky meteor]

Damnit, I just spat tea on my monitor...

[tender wave]

Monopoly. Least toxic game ever...

[floral herald]

Yeah but there are levels to toxicity lol

O well not like im gonna spend much time doing pvp anyways

[merry zinc]

truly a fun casual experience to play with friends

[smoky meteor]

Me staring at the Phase 3 of this week's bounty for Goggles... What do you mean I have to use ||offensive skills|| to get kills!? I only know shield and revive or defender!

[fair lake]

Remind me, please, what's the 3-rd objective?

[smoky meteor]

Oh, good timing on my part. Click my hidden message Serj. lol

Me sitting here watching my baby attack drones and turrets try to kill things... Good kids, you're almost done with one mob. I believe in you!

[deft cedar]

Might look like a leech here but do anyone have a Checkpoint close to lvl 90 (or lvl 90) in the summit?

[wise basalt]

is the game still delta'ing if you're in NY? Was that ever fixed with the server maintanence?

[glass comet]

Can you help me for this?)

I ran into a problem, I bought the game back in 2019 on Uplay, I even found the receipt in the mail
and now I can’t buy the add-on in ubisoft connect, it says You need the Base Game to play this DLC. Although I have the game on my account and can play it now. sorry for the mistakes, I used a translator

[plucky yacht]

Why does Requital trigger even though I have modifiers turned off and I am group leader?

[south topaz]

did anybody noticing more exotic drop lately? i'm getting exotics left and right and more from new priority obj which is so cool no need to do daily/weekly

[south topaz]

if anyone has it on it'll effect everyone

[kind veldt]

Priority objectives give a lot of exotics indeed

[wise basalt]

@glass comet u need contact ubi support for that. Not sure what ppl on here can do - we're not ubi employees

[kind veldt]

If anyone has modifiers on, then it affects whole group so far

[south topaz]

contact support its their weird issues, like i can't update my game from steam if i do i have to redownload whole update again in uplay !!

[sterile cedar]

Buggy maybe? I’m pretty sure I’ve had it trigger on enemies that didn’t have the icon above them

[elder junco]

Got to lvl 40

If I like playing aggressive what build should I run ?

[kind veldt]

from what i saw, issues persists and no maintnance was done today

[round sleet]

Are servers down ? I just got kicked

[elder junco]

Nah but it happens to get deltas mostly in nyc

[round sleet]

cant connect anymore "Echo-1" Failure

[wise basalt]

@kind veldt guess they're on their 16 wk vacation that is require by law. Must be nice to live in sweden.

[elder junco]

@wise basalt can u help me w smth ?

[wise basalt]

@elder junco I'm pc

[elder junco]

Not that about some info

[kind veldt]

wasnt that close to august?

[elder junco]

So I got to lvl 40 and I got told that at this level I can re level my exotic gun

[kind veldt]

i also know a couple of swedes so i know they had their big vacation in august or september i think

[elder junco]

To make it better

[kind veldt]

might need to rebuy blueprint from inaya or upgrade bench to lv 40

[elder junco]

Where’s inaya ?

And the exotic gun is called the Eagle bearer

[kind veldt]

lady next to crafting bench in white house

[tame linden]

right next to the bench 😄

[kind veldt]

it tends to be either needing the blueprint ot upgrading bench when you reach 40, cant remember which

[elder junco]

Alr I’m going now

Where’s the crafting bench ?

@kind veldt

[kind veldt]

in white house

[real creek]

There are two at the whitehouse. One inside to your left then left again and one under the heli pad.

[kind veldt]

honestly forget the helipad one

[near pier]

Second week of the parnell first mision???

[kind veldt]

bounties

[real creek]

Fast travel to heli pad is so much faster.

Plus you don't have NPCs who push you around knocking you out of your inventory or trapping you.

[brittle goblet]

What’s up with all these disconnects? I can’t do most hunter puzzles cause I get disconnected in the middle and it resets my progress every time…

[real creek]

https://trello.com/c/2h2UU1Ik

If you are in NY it's a known bug.

[elder junco]

@kind veldt so I’m at the crafting bench and how do I level up my exotic gun from lvl 33 to 40 ?

[raw sage]

Can you get the nemesis by finding it in dropped loot after getting the blueprint and can you get the blueprint without getting the other stuff first?

[kind veldt]

check if at the bottom of the screen has a prompt like "upgrade bench to next tier"

[elder junco]

It says Crafting Station and under that it says Superior| level 40

[spare cove]

So until the bug is fixed, I should not do the Journey 6 objective where I finish 8 main missions in New York

[elder junco]

@kind veldt

[tame linden]

where is wally?

[elder junco]

I got the same question I see that prompt as well

[wise basalt]

wally is at the castle

[tame linden]

[vale rune]

Its possible to make a manhunt solution riddle channel for those who struggle like me 🙂

[grand dove]

Can't remember who it was I spoke with about it as a certain mod only deletes my off topic stuff. However you can friend referral yourself on a separate psn if you wish to get the rewards 👍

[sterile ferry]

scout 2?

[grand blade]

In news and announcements: "We're aware of a few issues causing server disconnects...". "a few" hahahaha 🤣

[tender wave]

It might be few issues to be fair, it's just those few are causing lots of problems

[grand blade]

A LOT, even 😛

Tbh, this is the part that really gets my blood boiling. They talk to us like we are idiots. They seriously need some proper PR people. But it is probably not in the budget 😕

That, and they also need support staff that actually has access to the game. How can they be expected to solve anything or properly investigate if they don't even have access.

[dark sand]

go to a channel called Gcrock (on youtube) he can help you out man

[misty moon]

You're the one who recommended nothingbutskillz right? For division 2 stuff

[dark sand]

Yup yup

[misty moon]

All the videos he made is only for lvl 40 right?

[dark sand]

Yup

[misty moon]

😔 not their yet

[dark sand]

nah its alr man .. well 3xp ended today 5 to 6 hours ago .. gotta wait for the next one .. will be 5xp coming up in 3 weeks

[misty moon]

😔 rip I was asleep 5 to 6 hours ago

[tiny oar]

i think thats for lvl 40+

[dark sand]

Yup thats what he said before in the comments up top

[tiny oar]

ah mb

[dark sand]

nah its alr .. I get you

[grand blade]

Ubi support has been so quiet since I wrote them this: "Are you guys having a competition to see who can get a player to give up their support request the fastest or something?" haha 😅

[low jacinth]

Nothingbutskillz is dope, ive been watching him for years. Dude is really good and not a lame yt guy.

[misty moon]

But I can't watch his videos till I'm lvl 40😔

[dark sand]

I know for a fact that if you bought the ultimate edition that is currently having a deal on steam .. but I see you are on xbox unsure if there is a deal off in your area at the moment

the ultimate edition unlocks 3 extra specialization, classified missions as well I think 3 .. I am not sure .. and a lvl 30 booster .. and you just gotta grind wony .. just 10 levels and batta boom you done

BUt unless you don't know the story of the game .. just take it slow

[vale rune]

Hello i just thought about future manhunt riddle, it would be recommended to make a manhunt riddle solution channel+ help. :). I realy happy how good people at discord manage to play the new season:)
I do the best i can . Have a great day.

[low jacinth]

Huh? Ok

[misty moon]

still lvl 14:')

[vale rune]

You can boost player to 30 with the dlc expansion

[grand dove]

Well you can watch them to get an idea if you wish. I also think ikia makes good videos. Alot more detailed and not as lively I guess you could say. However he adds all his build to a Google doc and shares with everyone

[misty moon]

don't have it

[misty moon]

who's ikia?

[vale rune]

Ok its recommended due to this season

[dark sand]

am down to help once I get home .. in 6 hours and 52 mins .. may as well help grind my 2nd mule character that is lvl 30

[grand dove]

A youtuber for division 2. Or ask guuji yae to give you a book XD

[misty moon]

I only have one character - (and he looks like Kenny from twd)

[dark sand]

Yup I can help you out its .. just currently am at college .. so far grind in the moment

[misty moon]

idk who's yae is🗣️

[misty moon]

In 6 hours it's going to be 4pm for me 😔

[grand dove]

Ok not the gorou I thought then. There's no rush though, just play through the story and get a feel for the game/weapons etc.

[misty moon]

I feel like your talking about a character with pink hair who's a fox- who's also has the name yae miko

[dark sand]

You looked that up didn't you ... on google or yahoo or other site

[misty moon]

no I remember a video of gameplay I watched:')

[dark sand]

[misty moon]

alright:) and I'll probably play soon

[misty moon]

I don't think this game is cross play right? (Or is it cross-play?)

[dark sand]

Yup it supports crossplay

[misty moon]

ah alright

[dark sand]

between epic, steam, ubisoft connect, and others I forgot ..

[unique bramble]

Bullsh!t detected

[misty moon]

😔

[dark sand]

As I said .. between epic, steam, ubisoft connect, and others I forgot .. or maybe I shouldv'e said ..

[south topaz]

that's not crossplay

[grand dove]

Gorou is xbox

[dark sand]

cross platform play

[unique bramble]

All of those are PC, it's not different to be called CROSSplay

[lunar hare]

Cross-play means: Xbox/PSN/PC.

[south topaz]

same platform PC

[dark sand]

Really huh my bad .. mostly on pc

[misty moon]

what have I done 😔

[dark sand]

you done nothing wrong .. it my fault on my end

[lunar hare]

oh, gm to you
I was eating lunch

[misty moon]

nah it's not your fault

[dark sand]

I don't know man .. misscomunication on my part ..

[misty moon]

I just ate mine 30 minutes ago

[lunar hare]

does a kettle wheeze?

[unique bramble]

Yes it is his fault 😔

[tender wave]

If I don't take my inhalers yeah

[misty moon]

nu uh aaron keener caused this☹️

[unique bramble]

Vanguard wouldn't do such a thing

: (

[misty moon]

😔then who would?

[dark sand]

Anna in game .. does make you chuckle .. so far am on descent 73 at the moment

[unique bramble]

MSV writers

[misty moon]

your working with aaron keener aren't you

[unique bramble]

Now, so are your agent, welcome to the club.

[misty moon]

😔I'm a rogue agent nooo

[dark sand]

oh shoot .. actually how far are you in the story are you

[misty moon]

I don't really know the story timeline

youtube explained a bit-

I just looked up "division 2 timeline*

[dark sand]

A person named ngn .. can help explain he does make you laugh in his videos

[misty moon]

I'll look him up right now

[dark sand]

just make sure to watch in order and also I believe descent comms come later on in the middle

[misty moon]

alright:)

[dark sand]

Clean AF

[dark sand]

If you need help in story in order .. to not make it confusing or to not know who it is .. you can look it up on google but be careful it may spoil the events we are currently on .. you can also talk to us agents

[misty moon]

Ill start with the first one

[river briar]

the story after WONY is so confusing

[dark sand]

how so ..

[river briar]

im mainly confused around Keener and the 2nd wave rogues

[kind veldt]

No advertising or selfpromotion

[dark sand]

Lets talk in dms .. don't wanna spoil Garou .. as he is currently working on the story at the moment its gonna be juicy on his end

[river briar]

oh its okay i dont mean to detract off of your guy's convo

just rambling lol

[azure lintel]

hey umm i just started and I'm wondering like how to playthis game

[dark sand]

nah its alr .. man .. I mean today has been chill .. although may have messed up on the cross play part up top and got corrected we agents gotta help each other

[dark sand]

Lemme friend request you

[azure lintel]

okay

[kind veldt]

plays like a shooter but you make builds like a diablo game in a ultra simplistic manner

[dark sand]

What your ID

[kind veldt]

stack talents and stats to create builds and play harder content

[river briar]

Shoot people, dont get shot, dont worry too much about building optimized loadouts early game

[dark sand]

alr hol up .. lets take it slow one part at a time

[azure lintel]

beanny365 is my ubisoft if thats what your talking about

[azure lintel]

Ty!!

im like 2hrs in

[kind veldt]

for now just do the plot and slowly unlock skills and stuff

[tiny oar]

its looter shooter, check the items you have and the stats it gives to udnerstand what they do

[azure lintel]

okay

[dark sand]

the right way right there

[azure lintel]

Alright i uderstands now

thank you guys

[tiny oar]

yeah dont bother too much until you're lvl 30

just play like you want

[dark sand]

so far just go through the plot of the story complete missions and side quests (optional but still important in a way)

[river briar]

they do give good weapon attachments

[lusty path]

Does anyone else on pc keep getting disconnected

I keep getting delta-3

Switched to my unlimited data still happens

It's honestly been game breaking never happend on my work wifi when I lived there

[dark sand]

I kept getting delta but it was like 2 days ago .. and so far none on my end .. also other have gotten delta yesterday and it seems its currently happening still to other players

[dark sand]

your wifi is fine its just servers are problematic issue

[lusty path]

It started when I got to new york

[remote pecan]

#news-and-announcements message

[umbral pike]

How do you complete the eliminate the bad actor seasonal manhunt mission

[lusty path]

@remote pecan thank you for shareing this

[remote pecan]

just try to avoid NY, it happens there a lot

[lusty path]

Been @remote pecan sad lol I just finished the black tusk content now I wanted to try the other dlc

Guess I'll just go do stuff in DC

[remote pecan]

I mean you can still play it, but you need to expect DELTAs, 'til the issue is resolved

[dark sand]

The black tusk content was considered to be the endgame was nice .. and now for the dlc 1 year later we got wony (warlord of new york)

[lusty path]

I found fighting the black tusk really fun

[remote pecan]

the dlc has been renamed to "Deltas of New York"

[grand dove]

Coney Island will always be fun for me considering I can barely see anything when it's light

[grand blade]

Dony? 😛

[dark sand]

I am not gonna lie chat .. when warlords of new york came out it was good .. although it felt like there couldv'e been more missions to do or expand the map more during the time in the past

[grand blade]

I still really like it. I usually have one character permanently stationed there 🙂

[river briar]

Speaking of WONY I’m glad they moved endgame content to nonDLC players

[remote pecan]

I just miss the snow, I'd pay real money if they add Div1 content in Div2, but never gonna happen

[dark sand]

survivial was good it was neat

[somber stag]

I do miss warming up at the fire barrels

[remote pecan]

yea, miss those times, in winter/christmas time I always play some rounds of survival

[grand blade]

One of my favorite things that I miss from Div1, was the fact that you had an arched bullet trajectory, meaning you could shoot longer than the optimal range. Nothing better than getting a headshot so far away that you can barely see the target 😊

[remote pecan]

yea I don't get the 100m restriction in div2, enemies can shoot further
it isn't even a restriction in terms of distance, just your damage is 0 at 100m

[dark sand]

Not gonna lie .. chat I have a theory .. you all know that insurgent outfit in the new referral program I wonder if it will be a new enemy type or maybe allies in brooklyn or another group

or its just nothing just an outfit

[grand blade]

The guy in the livestream did say there would be no new factions. He seemed very convincing, so I honestly doubt it.

But then again, Brooklyn is not just around the corner yet. So you never know.

[dark sand]

You know whats even more interesting you know how in division 1 most of the enemies in division 2 are in the game except Last man battalion .. the last we seen of them was actually WONY in a animated cutscene when Dragov and his rikers took over that area in the mission that LMB were there

[kind veldt]

they got folded into BT

thats why they have old LMB medics and rushers now

[dark sand]

wish we vs them again but in division 2 .. they were pretty good

[vale rune]

Hyenas are more crazy and funny but dangerous

[dark sand]

Who knows maybe they will pop up in the division resurgence (the mobile game)

[kind veldt]

they should on paper because its before div 1

[dark sand]

Saw the beta was pretty neat didn't wanna spoil it .. it take place before div 1 for a short amount of time or medium but eventually it take place later on in the middle between div 1 and div 2

@kind veldt shoot may as well dm you gameplay footage or beta if you wanna know .. I was kinda skeptical of the story in resurgence in the beginning

[stark heron]

Resurgence predates TD1? Interesting

[dark sand]

Lemme dm you .. don't wanna spoil it here

[kind veldt]

other people might know it better, you probalby should look more about chats specific to resurgence

[dark sand]

@stark heron alr sent to your dms

[barren shadow]

Has anyone figured out how to "take care of a bad actor" is for the next activity ?

[late estuary]

Yeah, the hint doesn’t really allude to what you have to do imo

[lime fulcrum]

||bounty in foggy bottom||

[drowsy harness]

Does anyone know if the daily mission is bugged? No matter how many times I complete it I never get the rewards.

[late estuary]

The west potomac project?

[dark sand]

Do a bounties at foggy bottom than go to Taskforce Romeo once complete should be done

or you can do Taskforce Oscar haven’t tried the rest it’s 1 and done

[humble cargo]

has anyone had an immense amount of 'White Death' mmr's drop since the patch?

[stone wind]

Uh... where are the Foggy Bottom bounties?

[late estuary]

Do a nearby hostage activity

[stone wind]

There's none of that either

[drowsy harness]

I haven't tried today, but the mission yesterday Washington Hotel didn't give me the rewards even though I completed it on hard difficulty. Has happened many times before, I've never gotten the reward from the daily missions.

[tender wave]

wait and they'll spawn (or a hostage rescue if you've capped all the CPs)

[heavy field]

Yoo anyone on

[late estuary]

I did one right at the corner of constitution hall

[tender wave]

get a video of you completing the final task showing that it never completes, then you can submit a bug report to ubisoft (or help us troubleshoot what you're doing wrong)

[dark sand]

you can reset the control point in game .. if not there do it as many times till you find 1 in foggy bottom

[noble spoke]

Gents, do SMG's just plain suck? Like they seem to recoil harder than an assault rifle, have limited range. Yes higher ROF but am I missing the point of them?

[spare mason]

what is the referral program for? im one of those , who never reached the level 40 yet 😆

[kind veldt]

Generally higher rof and damage as well easy to build crits for limited range and accuracy, good for close encounters

[dark sand]

If you are new and haven’t played the game before June 11 2024 are able to participate in it

[kind veldt]

Currently the strongest weapons are a couple of SMGs and so was in the last patch

ARs are more versatile for general use no doubt

[noble spoke]

I generally just rock an Assault Rifle and a Shotgun as backup. You can take someones armour down with the rifle then rush in and shotgun to the face. This being said I'm just doing the PvE story stuff atm so maybe SMGs have a place later on

[dark sand]

am down to do referral friend trying to get that new insurgent that came out this season

[noble spoke]

Its sad cause I really like the idea of running a Vector but just cant seem to kill a lot of guys in one mag which feels a little silly

[vernal holly]

It just randomly hit me that the name of the Incursion is named after the book, Paradise Lost

[kind veldt]

play side missions and do control points later to unlock more attachments like extended mags

vectors is one of the strongests right now

[real creek]

Vector SBR 9mm baby.

The new optimal range mods values are pretty dope yo.

[tender wave]

that's weird, capturing a CP in West Potomac Park counted as one activity for the weekly project and two activities for the daily project

[spare mason]

I can't remember my 1st gameplay's date... But i open it very rarely

[dark sand]

What’s your ID maybe we can play together in about 5 hrs and 17 mins

Got college hw in the moment

[spare mason]

No idea what is my ID..

[dark sand]

Your game name

At Ubisoft connect

Shoot I will send you my game name in pc

ID: TheRetroAiden

[spare mason]

I wont open it much before 2025, im sure in

[dark sand]

Want me to dm you how it works we just gotta play together 2 hours

[spare mason]

No, thank you, but have fun

[dark sand]

Alr np

[small spear]

i remember that happens for some places. capturing a CP without defending for some reason counts as 1 activity for some projects/quests but not for others

[tender wave]

It was a normal capture with both offensive and defensive waves, they usually count as 2 activities for me

[white furnace]

getting tons of delta-3 errors tonight

[kind veldt]

avoid NYC in general

[humble cargo]

why

[kind veldt]

server issues

people are losing connection there constantly

[dark sand]

Other player have gotten delta and yeah server

[humble cargo]

15 CP's to do there, that will be fun

[tender wave]

can just skip that objective and do others

although actually I did it a few days ago, was only getting maybe 1 delta an hour on average

but stability for these things seems to vary hugely from player to player (or server to server maybe)

[humble cargo]

its whichever server array they end up on. I only get them in random Roosevelt missions for some reason. I say that now..

[fickle edge]

I wish XP events ran until you are level capped on them

Game is 5 years old already no need to be stingy

[dark sand]

Oh yeah if you need to destroy enemy gadgets on journey .. go to liberty island mission in NY

[fickle edge]

Make sense the ending is basically that lol

I'm guest just die and respawn to complete it

[dark sand]

Yup

[fickle edge]

I wonder if it works on summit too with the SHD cache thing

[tender wave]

I was thinking just find a legendary stronghold with a drone operator or two near the beginning, they spam drones so quickly it'll take no time to fill out the count (assuming you can survive)

[kind veldt]

i think union arena has one in the start i think, dont remember much of the others starting waves

[tender wave]

yeah DUA definitely has at least one in the outside area. Might go commit death by minitank a few times trying and failing to farm it

[dark sand]

The mask is nice tho sadly the modifiers its good need changes but it’s alr .. don’t like how an icon on top there screen looking like a circle deflects bullets back to you

Gonna need a healer to heal some of that heath and fight back again

[iron gust]

The destroy gadgets thing? It does just don't take over the cache and it's an infinite spawn

Done quickly

[echo cloud]

|

[dark sand]

I

[tight shard]

Is true that the legendary stronghold are extremely difficult?

[tender wave]

yeah, they're some of the toughest content in the game

[tight shard]

I tried to do the capitol with randoms and we cannot pass the start of the mission

[dark sand]

imagine master difficulty coming in 3 months for climax mission

[tender wave]

yeah, there are people who farm legendary strongholds solo just for a bit of a challenge, Master is for them. Although no doubt people will have builds and strats down pretty quickly like incursion.

[fickle edge]

Yeah that's what I was thinking

Maybe just jammer emp too

[iron gust]

I can confirm it works crates might take a bit of time to spawn multiple gadgets but it counts for journey 7
Get a build with skill haste and equip it after killing the npcs and sit in cover with the emp pulse

[tender wave]

Actually tested this, weirdly the drone ladies seem far less intent on endlessly spamming drones now, think they might actually have had their AI toned down a bit. Also, sometimes the drones have the requital modifier, which really doesn't help things.

[tiny oar]

lol requital on drone thats unlucky

[stone wind]

Update: still nothing in Foggy Bottom

[tender wave]

type "/invite the_Kettle" in your ingame chat, I've got a couple

[hollow kite]

This "riddle" thing in the update is TRASH. I HATE when games make you have to go google things to be able to play.

[winged pollen]

Man I can’t get no exotics 🥺

I’ve run countdown like 20 times

[fickle edge]

Do priority objectives that reward exotics

[hollow kite]

Ubisoft, you're not satisfied with tanking 3 games so bad you lost 50% OF YOUR COMPANY VALUE? aDDING dIV 2 TO THE PILE OF GARBAGE ARE YOU?

oops on the caps

I has gfat fingers

[tiny oar]

or you could, guess them ? from the clues ?

[winged pollen]

Priority objectives in the pause menu?

Where do I find them

[tiny oar]

also thats not why ubi shares are tanking

[hollow kite]

I am not from USA, the clues are MEANINGLESS to me

[tiny oar]

on the season menu

[tiny oar]

i am no either, and they mean something, just set them in your language

[hollow kite]

sorry wrong

you MUST know things about Wash DC to understand these clues

[winged pollen]

Same tab as journey missions?

Or the weekly daily missions?

[tiny oar]

not same tab, but same menu, go right tab

[hollow kite]

"Lead by example" does NOT mean do three objectives in Foggy Bottom

[tiny oar]

not really, its on the clue

[tiny oar]

yes it does

the whole scout is on foggy bottom

[winged pollen]

Ok I’ll have a look

[hollow kite]

LOL sure.. let me compare it then.... "Only two survived this fateful day."

go ahead, what did mean?

[tiny oar]

man, if nobody could guess, nobody would have

i havent done the scout for this week

but last week i didnt need to clue

[hollow kite]

whatever

[tiny oar]

and there are 14 weeks to go

or 12 i dont remember

99.99% of the playerbase never set a foot in washinton

so you dont need that to solve it

[hollow kite]

not seeing your posts.. you're blocked, bye

[tiny oar]

xd

cya bud

maybe next time you'll listen to people when they help

[grand dove]

Must be the same guy who had a mental breakdown about it on twitter

[tiny oar]

brains can he hard to use tbh

[grand dove]

I mean if they can use discord to rant they can use it to find the answer

[tiny oar]

yeah but its not the same

finding answer is work

ranting is the whole fun

[grand dove]

SAYS WHO?????

Yeah you're right it is

[tiny oar]

every ranting guy is like that haha

they dont want solutions

they want to get their feeligns out

like, he doesnt even have any role so im pretty sure he didnt even read the rules before posting

too much work

[river briar]

Probably wanted to find people to vent to rather than actually speak with a human being

I get being frustrated but don't expect everyone to listen when you jsut yell at them then block them 🤷‍♂️

[zinc lichen]

what happened

#ilovedivision

[river briar]

someone had a valid problem with the riddles for the season but when someone talked with him about it he just got angry they didnt have the same issue

[tight shard]

I am in the summit 100th floor and I can't defeat the hunter what I do?

[viral plover]

Avoid their tech and try to focus them one by one

[tiny oar]

You can reset the summit, change difficulty, matchmake for help

[viral plover]

I like taking regen build since they disable your abilities

[river briar]

If you want to practice against hunter ai enemies theres a few missions that have them, plus the ones in light zones

[tight shard]

That will bring me back to the first level or still be in the 100th floor?

[viral plover]

Changing difficulty won't

Reseting summit will

[tiny oar]

Reset brings you back floor 1, the rest wont

You can leave anytime and Come back later

[viral plover]

Tbh, just play cover and shoot them one by one

[tender wave]

If you complete the floor without resetting it will unlock an exotic project for you

[viral plover]

I did it with a random build the first time
It's just a matter of staying alive long enough for you to kill one of them
After that it's easy to finish the fight

[tender wave]

Maybe ask for help in #lfg-xbox or use built in xbox game finder

[viral plover]

Oh yeah
You can abuse lady liberty and shield since they don't emp all the time

[tight shard]

How much hunters are in the 100th floor because I tried with 3 other random and we got 6 hunter there are less if I solo?

[viral plover]

2

I think it's 2 per player

[tiny oar]

Always number of players + 1

If you're alone they are 2, if youre in a party of 4 they are 5

[viral plover]

You can also deploy a revive hive before they spawn if you want that extra help
They don't get jammed after you deploy them

[tiny oar]

They do get jammed

[viral plover]

Really

[tiny oar]

You need spécial talent to dodge jamming

[viral plover]

Didn't on my run

Maybe out of range

[tender wave]

Tech Faraday field probably
