td2-general-chat

[zinc sky]

Also why does Elmo's scope not have a crosshair?

It's just completely blank

[zinc bramble]

Anyone know where the snitch is this werk

Week

[tiny oar]

its random

[full zinc]

same place he always is

[zinc bramble]

Well I kinda just came back recently so forgot lol

[full zinc]

#ask-td2-community message this will help. my usual spot to check

just gotta know one of the 40 locations. log, run to it, if snitch not there, relog and repeat

[zinc bramble]

Ty ill check there

Oh gawd haha

[full zinc]

yup. ezpz

usually its first shot, rarely do i have to relog

[zinc bramble]

Damn I guess you're lucky lol

[brazen yacht]

Can we talk about how everyone in this game runs the same all black fit with a different mask 😭

[kind veldt]

i'm still running the rudolf gear

i usually run HUNK tho

[azure lintel]

this game is like crack

[tiny oar]

well i dont got the catgirl outfit so i make with what i have

[zinc bramble]

Idk i don't run all black outfits at all

[tiny oar]

aight, journey 6 done

journey 7 sounds like a real pain

[small spear]

i do the journeys enough to get exodus

then i got it and never touched journey again

[hearty robin]

Hi I’m new here I’ve played before just got started again I’m looking for friends on PlayStation or discord that can play td2 with

[tiny oar]

try #lfg-playstation

[versed tendon]

I’m on pc but can I play with my friend on Xbox?

[lunar hare]

no

[gusty raven]

question? on PC is the directives always messing up and loading the wrong ones even though you have certain ones selected?

[versed tendon]

Oh

[lunar hare]

Scavenged Skills is bugged, enemies no matter what will drop skill parts

[gusty raven]

It's a hit or miss that it works... when it fails I have to set the map with no directivies then log out and log back in and set my directives.

[tiny oar]

actually its not bugged, its swapped with special ammo

they looking into it, but no eta on fix

[echo anchor]

i wish i had hunk ..... i only got the pants 😭

[cloud badge]

Are the raids in this game still popular?

[inner elbow]

Yes

[deft cobalt]

If anyone is opening exotic caches on Xbox, would you mind if I join your team, and snag the exotics you don't want. I can't some of these exotics to save my life (Eagle Bearer, Bighorn).

[sterile cedar]

Got bad news for you

Those don't come in exotic caches

[echo anchor]

if only ......

[versed tendon]

What is the best way to get lock box keys?

[spare cove]

Defeating named enemies in the open world and doing bounties

[versed tendon]

Okie thanks

[full zinc]

was really easy in the range 😂 . i only had to activate the active modifier once and kept it active for like 600 headshots. was able to get 5 of the challenges on one session . shoulda hopped on that while it was good

[tiny marsh]

Really? All I’ve found today for pentco is one guy that seemed like was someone letting their little brother play

[full zinc]

there are a good amount in the underground areas as well

[versed tendon]

What are those?

[full zinc]

tunnel areas around the map. look for the yellow down arrows, they mark entrances and highlight the tunnel when you hover over them

[kind veldt]

sewers quite literally

[versed tendon]

Oh okay

[kind veldt]

god urban realistic dungeon for all your RPG needs

[quick oar]

Does anyone know where Division 2 is saved? It's not in my Ubisoft folder in program files x86

which is where it's supposed to be

[fiery slate]

Should be able to go into uplay, manage the game, and see where it’s installed

[inner elbow]

Countdown is not a raid

[tiny marsh]

What’s the difference I’m pretty much brand new

[inner elbow]

Countdown is a 8-player game mode and is not too hard to complete

Raids like iron horse and dark hours are also 8-players but require more coordination and teamwork.

[warped python]

Countdown is great. You can choose your loot and the rounds only last 15 minutes. It's a great way to get XP and loot.

[tiny marsh]

Wait are we talking about the manhunt?

The saving Lewis or whatever mission

[wind turret]

@tiny marsh the Manhunt is a separate thing connected to storyline

[tiny marsh]

Am I able to do countdown without having done the manhunt? Because I’m getting my shit kicked in on the manhunt but didn’t see a different option

[inner elbow]

Yes you can just matchmake for Countdown

You don't have to be physically there

[wind turret]

If your new stick to challenging countdown if you do Heroic at low level they might kick you of of it

An hour of countdown will get you a reasonable striker DPS build

[kind veldt]

manhunt is a mission that uses countdown map

countdown is a standalone game mode

sure is fun to drop in mission with someone having all directives in the middle of a firefight

[elfin hazel]

I have been hit by the dreaded no twitch drop items bug 😭

at least I got my patch & hopefully the weapon skin when that hits 3 hours

[full zinc]

good loot, for sure. only around 1 shd per run normally, so 4shd/hr is actually bad return if aim is grinding shd level

[ancient ermine]

this game needs fixed pvp is broken and full of cheaters

[full zinc]

[ancient ermine]

game audio quit working in middle of it and started sounding like a robot

never even got my drops

game crashes in dz

pvp players are different on eachothers screens by alot u can be in another room and it still show u in other room on there screen

[full zinc]

😂

is that all?

[ancient ermine]

no

22 hours in this is sad

[full zinc]

this is more community oriented server, so youll basically be preaching to the choir. very limited dev interaction here, if any at all. should put in a ticket demanding a refund... sounds like a lot of issues. there is a support discord and ticket system. links pinned in #unofficial-troubleshooting .

gl agent

[tiny marsh]

Yeah I’m not even shd 20 yet, I played a few years ago before they increased the level maximum and I only just bought WONY today

[toxic flume]

Rip me, I have inf connecting screen on div1 xbox

[candid sparrow]

Anybody on Playstation 5 I need some people to run with PSN:Auradude2

Not new to the game finished 1&2 on XBOX but made the switch and need people to play with

[keen osprey]

I had the same issue with that red skull mask from Halloween

Ubisoft support wanted me to record my inventory in the game and on twitch and I was like "eff that"

It's weird how they're so anal about granting it - like as if you've just asked for a million credits

[toxic flume]

Before I visit fam, never gotten it, can’t check till I get back home on Saturday at midnight est, aka Sunday morning… I’m not risking it to login in on xbox so it don’t give it to my xbox account. Even tho I want it on my pc account

[south topaz]

u can't share item from caches like that or i would just share normal exotics with new players like that quite easily

[warped python]

Thanks for the response. I am pretty new, so are you talking about gear pieces when you say SHD or is it something else?

[fluid wind]

Ok

Question

[full zinc]

shd is xp

[fluid wind]

So we killed all of the rogue agents in warlords of New York except the obvious too so Javier James and Vivian are dead. What the hell do you think happened to their corpses cause I know we took their watches obviously

[orchid merlin]

How do I find Cassie Mendoza

[compact vine]

Fighting the Pentagon drone boss with the new Global Modifier basically makes it incompletable solo because the drone basically regenerates to full health every second.

[kind veldt]

will spawn in the map after you find the snitch

[olive locust]

can someone help me with these mask? im on xbox

[kind veldt]

#lfg-xbox

[sly tundra]

That guy really ping every channel.

[shy igloo]

can someone please help me get the ouroboros

[sly tundra]

There are LFG channels use them correctly to be able to the correct help.

[quick topaz]

Looking for some clearification on the twitch drops. I was accepted as an Ubisoft Creator yet I dont have drops on my twitch channel anyone know why that is?

[dapper atlas]

Afaik there's a Discord server for Ubi Creators? If not, I'd ask your contact person for the program about it.

[quick topaz]

THank you

[karmic thorn]

just started the div 2 - any suggestions on what to do first ?

[jovial lichen]

hey everyone please help me. I think I had the game before the splinter cell cosmetics came out. But when the splinter cell cosmetics came out, I didn't do the quests to get the clothes because I didn't know. Can I get the splinter cell cosmetics now or is there a way to get these cosmetics now?

[night chasm]

xD

[woeful dawn]

are you level 40?

[gentle drift]

Hi guys

[karmic thorn]

32

[waxen kindle]

When does the x5 XP event start and is it for general XP to level up your watch? Thanks

[naive parcel]

Hey, i have a small Problem i think. In the Pentagon Mission the Marauder Drone does not get damage. To be specific: It heals itself. Is this normal? Difficulty is heavy i just wanted to faceroll the dungeon for priority target

[tender wave]

Quite common, it happens when the marauder gets the frenzy buff.
You can wipe and turn off modifiers before starting the fight again, or just hope it doesn't get frenzied next time, or use a one-shot build if you have Negotiators, dodge city and ravenous in your inventory

I think you can also pause the regen with an emp sticky so that might let you kill it if you have enough damage output

[naive parcel]

Then i need to turn off. It healed a 50 Mil Crit in like 3 seconds... I tried emp sticky but that also didn't work

[tender wave]

Yeah turning the modifiers off is the simplest solution

[torpid tendon]

Armored units are so tough when on frenzy. they can out heal my 100 stacks striker. We always turn the mods off when fighting legendary bosses, especially the drones and the chunga from DUA

[tiny oar]

I coundlt :(

[fresh marsh]

which will unlock season rewards? season pass or bundle

[tender wave]

Season pass gives you more rewards from the season track, season bundle also gives you some level skips

Personally wouldn't get the bundle unless you really want the outfit that comes with it

[gaunt nacelle]

Still nothing about directives in Trello, so special ammo and skills will still bugged like fragil armor ...

[fossil tartan]

Recon drone invulnerable? Wtf?

[scarlet musk]

Are we really getting 15 weeks of this

[tender wave]

Sometimes it gets the Frenzy enemy modifier that gives it regen. You can turn off modifiers, overcome the regen with high enough damage, or one-shot it if you have the necessary gear/tactics

or reset the fight and hope it doesn't get given Frenzy next time around

[fossil tartan]

Ty! 🙏

[tiny oar]

of what ?

[scarlet musk]

of "wtf drone invicible"

[tiny oar]

prob not, they said they will make only human npc frienzed soon

[scarlet musk]

Oh, good

[pliant sentinel]

@cerulean yarrow the vips death is on ur hands

[scarlet cedar]

What’s your guys general rule for deciding what loot to keep and what loot to deconstruct?

[kind veldt]

I just break everything

[tender wave]

Does it contribute to a build you want or improve a build you have? Is it rare (eg dz-locked named items)? Otherwise trash it.

[tiny oar]

anything that can upgrade librairy or expertise, you loot as junk and give, any named item with better stats than you have, you keep, any exotic that has better stat, you keep, any item im looking for for a build, i keep
anything else : deconstruct

[kind veldt]

surprisingly good rolls for normal

just farming drone kills

[real creek]

Pics in general chat!! What type of mod abuse is this!

[small spear]

mod abooz

[tiny oar]

ah fk im at journey 6 not 7

i need tips on completing them without spending half a year to do so

[kind veldt]

focus on the easy ones

[tender wave]

reaper scan with the spotter drone (sharpshooter spec) is pretty easy and will also get you a load of blacklisted enemies to kill

which will also get you to momentum 5 more quickly

[kind veldt]

drone is easy, vendetta marked targets is easy one (not the pistol one), generic kill enemies with drone can be done on normal, reaper scan is also easy, blacklisted you will get it done passively so less rush

[tiny oar]

yeah im more concerned with pistol kills, keep tier 4 momentum forever

sound like a real pain to do

[tender wave]

just ignore those ones

[jovial stag]

how do i get the dark winter smg

[tiny oar]

dz only

[tender wave]

dz farming or conflict caches or named caches or get lucky and get the blueprint from Descent

[jovial stag]

like dz vendors or like inside of dz

[tiny oar]

both

[jovial stag]

ok tysm

[tender wave]

occasionally it might go for sale at the countdown vendor

[jovial stag]

what is the Descent ? im kinda new

[jovial stag]

ya i checked

wasnt there

[hybrid ore]

As it's a popular gun, a DZ with the TL of SMG will be quite populated.

So be a little wary.

[spare cove]

It's a rogue like mode

[hybrid ore]

Technically it's a rogue-lite, but yeah it's like Dead Cells or Hades, or whatever your favourite one is.

The best way to get it is to just spam Named Item caches and pray for luck.

[jovial stag]

whats the best way to named item caches

[hybrid ore]

During "Global Events", you can buy them for the tokens you get for levelling up/completing challenges with them active.
You can spam-buy them very fast if you grind effectively during that.

[kind veldt]

countdown prob or when global events ar ehappening

[hybrid ore]

Yeah Countdown is 24/7 better, but GE's are fantastic for getting them when they're live.

[jagged prism]

not the best way but i think Danny Weaver sells named caches for textiles

[tender wave]

@jovial stag use #lfg-pc to find people to group with (or just ingame matchmaking for Countdown)

[hybrid ore]

@jagged prism The most expensive way to get 30 copies of the Matador you ever did see.

[jagged prism]

lol, ouch

[tiny oar]

ah great

now the game doesnt register blacklisted hostiles i kill

[kind veldt]

it might be

...for the previous journey step

[jagged prism]

or several previous journey steps, didn't they list that like 3 times or something?

[kind veldt]

yeah

but the first ones are fast

probably get clogged up during journey 5

[jagged prism]

i hope they do some kind of work around for those. like hey you finished journey x and journey y has the same objective. since x is finished anything you do counts towards journey y instead

[tiny oar]

wym ?

[gritty oracle]

Woo-hoo i hit lvl 40 last night

[lime lagoon]

Now reach watch level 1k

[real creek]

Better off hitting up the builds guides and going from there.

[kind veldt]

did you complete journey 5 blacklisted enemies?

[real creek]

Exp events soon so you can farm them really well with a good build.

[gritty oracle]

Of course.
Question though, i have my lvl 40 character (boosted to do the Warlords DLC and on the Keener fight) and I have my regular character (chipping away at the D.C
Campaign).
Should I even keep the D.C. character after I beat the Campaign?

[kind veldt]

the game will counting blacklisted enemies kills for the journey 5 BEFORE start counting for journey 6

[scenic vale]

I have D2 on Ubi Connect. Can I play with someone on Steam?

[real creek]

PC is PC so yes.

[lime lagoon]

Yes because both ways can be fun and sometimes having multiple charcters is cool

[gritty oracle]

Okay that's fair

[lime lagoon]

Also the story changes if you boost to the DLC

[gritty oracle]

Right. I know boosting skips the entire D.C campaign

[tiny oar]

no, does this seriously only complete the previous one before the next ???

[tender wave]

yup

[tiny oar]

aight, imma bang my head on a wall

[kind veldt]

definetly a bad way to implement those things

[lime lagoon]

yes but it changes what the charcters cannonically has done since if you boost you just never answered the c call lol

[tender wave]

reaper coils, spotter drone, join groups for more enemies = more blacklisted enemies, it doesn't take that long in the end

[wheat pulsar]

Ran Pentagon mission last nigh with random group and the quad copter in the last ally area was black listed and could not do any damage to it. Just completely stuck there. They need to fix robot black list elements.

[tiny oar]

team killing enemies doesnt fill up your objectives

its actually a detriment, you get stolen your kills

[gritty oracle]

What does blacklisted enemies mean exactly?

[signal grail]

Suggestions by the Cooler of Life.

"Let team tagging objectivess be shared to team mates don't be mean"

Yeah other games impletement it, why not this

[tiny oar]

i know they dont want people to get carried while doing nothing, but still, it just incitate selfish behavior

[signal grail]

We're not being entitled here! /sarcasm

[wheat pulsar]

They have that body icon with the line thru it and they boost your momentum faster when you kill them

[lime lagoon]

As a solo player I wish stealth was an actual implimented game mechanic

[kind veldt]

they give more modifier when killed and take more of the modifier when they hit you

[signal grail]

Just one more day of rest so i can enjoy 5x XP and go ham

I rested 2 weeks for this. I can't wait.

[lime lagoon]

Hehe I feel that as someone with ADHD and and gets easily bored of receptiveness. Need a good break if I am gonna grind a game.

[signal grail]

Yeah, i was already burnt out so I'm on vacation until then, totally worth it.

[lime lagoon]

What's your plan cause mine is season pass priority missions

Mainly cause a solo player who doesn't touch PVP or the multiplayer stuff

[hybrid ore]

You can also run Control Points (CP) at Heroic (Lvl 4) with 4-5 Directives.
That way you can finish up your reward pool of those, and they give a tidy XP sum to boot.
There's a guide 📌 pinned over in #ask-td2-community

[scenic vale]

So I looked at the server status channel and saw nothing but I keep getting Mike-01 errors when I try to get in the game.

[hybrid ore]

@scenic vale I just logged on fresh, so the issue is not with the game at-wide.

[scenic vale]

finally got on. How do I add a Steam player to my friend's list?

[grand blade]

Does anyone know if the x5 XP event is week-long or only for a couple of days? 🤔

[kind veldt]

have to add them in ubi connect i think

[hybrid ore]

@grand blade It doesn't say ingame yet on the Timeline, but last time the 5x XP Event was for 3 days.

[tiny oar]

well, now previous journey is completed, still doesnt register 🙃

[grand blade]

Yeah, that's how I remember it. So wanted to be sure.

But at least we get it on top of Golden Bullet event 😊

[signal grail]

sorry , was distracted , priority missions strongholds only

[remote pecan]

relog after completing it, then it will work

[hybrid gust]

Did they increase rare drop rate or something today XD? I run Tidal Basin and I got 4 exotic from that mission alone, though bad roll and duplicate I'll take that exo component.

[lean zinc]

HI how everyone doing today

[latent patio]

Is Countdown the best way to farm specific exotics, with the base type set as targetted loot?

[jagged prism]

Usually it has the highest loot drops than any other thing you do in game

[molten spire]

^ more loot drops for time spent is more theoretical chance for one or more of those drops to be exotic

[latent patio]

Gotcha, thank you

[austere sable]

Is there a setting on PC to make the game not minimize when I tab out?

[grand blade]

So, is anyone still having this problem: [Vanity] The Dragov Headgear is missing from the Dragov Bundle.? Because I bought it the other day, and it shows just fine for me 🤷🏽‍♂️

[grand blade]

Can't you change it to "Fullscreen Borderless"?

[austere sable]

Makes no difference still lags and stutters when I tab in and out

If I whip out my inventory or something it frees the mouse and I can go over to my monitor but it's a force of habit to alt tab

[tender wave]

IIRC only people who bought the bundle when it first came out had the issue, and they still haven't received their headgear

[austere sable]

I'll just have ot get better with it I was just wondering if there is a setting. I know it exists in other games

[grand blade]

Ah, okay, I see.

[grand blade]

Well, it shouldn't be an issue at all. So I am guessing it is a bug of sorts.

[austere sable]

Ahhh I've seen a few things on the reddit and what not.... it's definitely a widespread issue. Not too big a deal

[grand blade]

I actually had a similar problem on my old PC. Almost every time I would alt-tab, my framerate would drop, and the game would stutter.

I seem to remember someone else deep-diving into the issue and finding out that, in his case, it was another program running in the background. But I can't remember which one...

[iron gust]

*We have identified an issue where Black Tusk activities are missing from Downtown East, preventing players from advancing in the Scout 3 mission. Since Scout 3 becomes available on March 11, players will encounter this issue until the fix is applied.

A fix is planned for Y6S3.1 on March 18.*

So it's not possible to complete the scout?

[hybrid ore]

The scout 3 isn't out yet, unless it's a mistype.

2 was Space Admin, Bounty, and The Choke CP.

[grand blade]

Odd

[hybrid ore]

Nah, it's just the wording. Letting us know there'll be an issue when it drops in 15 hours.

Unfortunately it looks like the issue will persist for a full week, that'll cause some chaos.

[grand blade]

Well, I have black tusk activities there now, so... 😋

[hybrid ore]

It is 100% not.

[spare cove]

If it was about Scout 2, they'd have mentioned it in their warning

[grand blade]

Yeah, I think it is literally for Scout 3

[hybrid ore]

It literally says "preventing players from advancing in the Scout 3 mission."

[spare cove]

Bounties do count as activities in projects, right?

[teal jolt]

Bruh this shyt hard

[grand blade]

yup

[teal jolt]

I need help

[spare cove]

Well, in that case, I gotta stack up on those Black Tusk bounties

[hybrid ore]

@teal jolt Check down in #lfg-playstation, GL Agent

[grand blade]

I hope it is not one of those zones where Black Tusk activities gives bounties for other factions instead of their own 🥴

[spare cove]

Well, I have six Black Tusk bounties in Downtown East, so I should be well settled

[spare cove]

Anecdotal, but the Black Tusk activities I've done that rewards bounties usually take place in the area I've done them.

Considering how some people "hate" the scouts, maybe this issue is a blessing in disguise

Wait, did week 2 of Twitch Drops start already?

[grand blade]

Yeah, but they specifically say Black Tusk activities, so the rewarded bounty needs to be that. And I have experienced getting bounties for other factions after doing a BT activity. Which normally only makes me happy, but not if it is the case this time 😅

[spare cove]

Hmm

[grand blade]

Oh, nice, my Techie has 3 BT bounties already. So fingers crossed you don't need to do 4, lol 😅

[remote pecan]

it's just one, but they're are talking about activities, so you can't kill black tusk enemies there (or only with a bounty)
so either you have one or you'll have to wait 😄

[spare cove]

I guess we'll have to find out whether Black Tusk bounties in Downtown East count for the Scout mission, tomorrow

[remote pecan]

they were on the pts and the recent ones didn't change

Scout 03

1. ||Complete a Bounty in Downtown East||
2. ||Eliminate Black Tusks (20)||
3. ||Take over Red Dragon CP||

[spare cove]

Oh yeah, I remember that.

||Objective 2 mentioned 20 Black Tusk kills in Judiciary Square, even though they only count in their bounties in Downtown East||

[remote pecan]

it's about the 2. objective, if you don't have any enemies there you can't progress, but they will spawn with the bounty

just use whatever bounty you have for the first and keep a black tusk bounty for the 2nd obj

don't complete it, do some kills and reset it, just don't kill the boss

I have at least one on one char, so it should be fine

I wonder what the fix is, probably just wait for the rotation to be there 😄

[tiny oar]

omg the drone dps is SO bad

even with seasonal buff

i litterally cant outdps the healing of frienzed normal npcs

on heroic

i have all the skill damage possible and its just not enough

the drone keep on never staying in los so it drop its dps in half

[elfin verge]

I found that earlier. Trying some skill builds and I'm like I could do this 10x faster with a gun

[real creek]

Welcome to drone life. Sit back and look at your phone.

[remote pecan]

plays the usual Division 2 lover role

[tiny oar]

cant even do that, sniper boss dropping seekers on me ever 20s

[real creek]

Mans fighting for his life

[tiny oar]

and drone losing agro every 10s to force me to babysit

[remote pecan]

Oh I really liked the drone kills, the skill is such a nice addition to the game, just afk farming it
for my 2 second reaction time, the skill isn't even clunky at all and the drone usually finds it targets after a couple of seconds

[tiny oar]

like

drone lose agro half the time, doesnt stay in los half the time it has agro, so you basically have the skill with the least possible dps

and we're supposed to kill 200 npc like that

when it cant even kill a medic

[elfin verge]

Oh don't do that on heroic you'll be there all season

[tiny oar]

yeah but like, if i cant do that on heroic, skill build with drone just cant work

[elfin verge]

Correct it can't

Not in a timely manner anyway

[tiny oar]

im getting the +50% bonus damage from the season, if i cant do heroic with that, i cant even do normal the rest of the time

like, ok skill builds are sleepy af, but man

give it some love plz, you cant make a skill that bad and then ask for people to farm hundreds of kills on that

[remote pecan]

gain momentum in the shooting range, until you're 5 and then move to something like lincoln on normal
also slightly shoot the enemies, so you drone can finish it off

[tiny oar]

thats not my point

[remote pecan]

yellow striker works fine 😄

[tiny oar]

i can cheese all i want, its not the issue, the issue is the drone just doesnt work

[real creek]

Funny thing is tons run that all the time and they love it and will swear by it for legendary even.

[remote pecan]

ik

[small spear]

oh no my stealth strat don't work cuz they saw my drone from 3 miles away

[sterile bear]

how do i obtain a St Elmo's Engine

[tiny oar]

random drop

[real creek]

Typically countdown TL ARs and then open exotic caches from the countdown vendor.

[sterile bear]

TL AR? what does that mean

[real creek]

Targeted loot assult rifles

[tiny oar]

target loot assult rifle

[small spear]

assult, point and laugh

[sterile bear]

ty guys will farm lincoln memorial i guess

[real creek]

Good luck ig

But countdown is your best bet. Far greater loot per min and exotic caches every other challenging finish.

[remote pecan]

salt rifle 🙂

[real creek]

Get this one gun it's shockingly good

[small spear]

electrifying, even

[robust kite]

Can I ask a potentially stupid question in regards to the Scouts:
(For clarity, I played both Div1 and Div2 during Covid on XBox and recently moved to PS5 so replayed both, and have now moved on to the seasons of Div2, so I have never done any of these scouts before, and I'm currently playing on my own, but considering teaming up when/if I catch up to where other people are playing.)
I can imagine that tasks like completing kills in a certain method are per player. But if in a group and we complete a mission together, or do a bounty together - does it count for all involved, or in a group of 4, would they need to do 4 bounties to make it count?

[elfin verge]

Group activities count for all yes

[robust kite]

Thank you.

[delicate hazel]

People are missing a specific bounty sometimes and ask others to join their game for it. Which we will experience a lot next week I imagine.

[remote pecan]

*tomorrow

I'll keep mine open for 10 money

[jagged sorrel]

The x5 event ended right 💀 I can’t believe I missed it

[elfin verge]

Starts tomorrow

[jagged sorrel]

fr?

[elfin verge]

Yeah fr lol

[gray olive]

I really hope theses seasonal modifiers like critical recovery is an attemp to look at clutch and maybe change it after this season

[elfin verge]

The event on right now is the shepherd(?) one

[remote pecan]

fr fr? 🤣

[jagged sorrel]

thanks then ❤️

[jagged sorrel]

Gotta make sure

[elfin verge]

It's the 5x xp and golden bullet combo starting at reset for a week

[remote pecan]

at least you didn't ask chatGPT about it 😄

[tender wave]

advice to hand out when this happens: capture all CPs in Downtown East and look for Hostage Rescues - these are usually Black Tusk even when the area isn't invaded, and will give a BT bounty as a reward

[jagged sorrel]

ChatGPT is tired of my stupid questions lmao

[tiny oar]

as if chatgpt was any good to begin with

[remote pecan]

probably not only yours 😉

[gaunt frigate]

is anyone else doing the twitch drops? Also wanted to ask because I finished all my drops but I only got the patch and weapon camo, the caches didnt show up

[jagged sorrel]

I meeeean depends on the question tho

[tiny oar]

no, its a llm, it doesnt understand what you're saying, nor what it spits back

its only good at burning down the rainforest

[real creek]

We need a place for the ai servers duh

It's just prep work

[tiny oar]

anywhere but here

[small spear]

it's okay IF you already know how to fact check its responses, which most people don't

i doubt most people asking it about builds for this game know how to check if the build actually makes sense

[real creek]

Fact checking in this political economy? What even is that?

[small spear]

if you do know, then it does save you time

[tiny oar]

also if you need to fact chec, you're better off not using chatgpt and doing the work yourself

its like saying "chat gpt saves you time to then lose it again doing the same work you'd do anyway"

the only difference chatgpt burned down few acres of a random forest

[feral mural]

Using chatGPT for builds is a bold move

[tiny oar]

as bold and smart as using youtube thumbnails saying "godlike"

[feral mural]

4 blue core striker build

New meta

[latent patio]

Is there a way to donate without interacting with the control point officer?

[tender wave]

well it's working today, I'm farming up a few BT bounties in preparation

I don't think it will

when they say 'black tusk activities will be missing', I think they mean the regular red activities that appear in invaded areas

[tiny oar]

no

[latent patio]

So I just have to wait for the NPC to decide to let me talk to them, got it

[tender wave]

because hostage rescue events frequently being BT in spite of the non-invaded status of the area isn't particularly well-known

[small spear]

it's highly dependent on what you're actually doing to need it. it's good at typing out lots of boilerplate stuff at work for example, where the time you save is in typing that stuff out. we already account for the time validating its responses

[tiny oar]

since you need to recheck everything it says, not really

also there is nothing worse to read than some ia mumble

they usually make no sense

[small spear]

there are other AI models than chatgpt. we don't use chatgpt at all

[latent patio]

Out of curiosity, what's the latest chatgpt model you used?

[tiny oar]

all of them are llm

same problem, different flavor

[small spear]

we use claude right now to write unit tests for our code for example based on the few i already wrote. it's really good at imitating what you have

but i agree that using it to make a build for this game is the worst idea ever

[spare cove]

Uhhh... none of them

[small spear]

because it has no idea of the nuances that this game has

[tiny oar]

it has no idea at all

its not an ai

[spare cove]

I don't need some generated-"AI" slop for anything

[tiny oar]

also, if a human didnt bother to create something, why would i bother to loot at it ?

[kind veldt]

well you do loot NPCs that are AI

[feral mural]

nature?

[kind veldt]

anyhow jokes apart

might wanna go #off-topic-discussions if you want ot discuss skynet or something

[tiny oar]

sometimes i wish skynet was a thing xd

but yeah its offtopic

[small spear]

i'll just linger on this topic a bit since it's still relevant, but i was arguing with a dude a month ago that said my calculations were wrong because chatgpt said otherwise

[spare cove]

Sometimes I wish humans do not rely on slop.

But that's off the topic

[remote pecan]

I think it is a good advice for people that wanna progress and don't have a BT bounty, but you don't need to clear the map, there is one right above DUA which spawns even with all red CPs.

[fading cave]

Servers down?

[kind veldt]

not at the moment

when they go down down, we get a lot of angry people in one go

[spare cove]

Exactly

If you see spam posts in this channel, then you'll know

[polar chasm]

for some reason i didnt got the named and exotic cache from the twitch drops but did get the arm patch and weapon skin, anyone know a fix?

[spare cove]

Did you check the stash?

[polar chasm]

yep, nothing

[elfin verge]

I had the same earlier, haven't been back in the game to check though

[tiny oar]

well at least you got something

drops were bugged for me so i got jackshit

[latent patio]

What's considered a god roll? All attributes are perfect?

[elfin verge]

I would imagine it's the right attributes and talent with everything maxed/not needing rerolled or optimised

[real creek]

God rolled can be a few things, perfect rolls being all max or having the exact rolls and talents you want.

[limpid flint]

From what I'm hearing from streamers is give it 24hrs for cache drops if they haven't then can put in a complaint ticket to ubisoft if it matters. I'd be more upset if the cosmetics didn't drop after watching 3hrs of streams.

[spare cove]

Some people's god-roll may not be the same for others

[real creek]

If someone shows you a habsburg backpack with HSD/WH and vigi that's god rolled imo

[spare cove]

Yeah, but screw that. I ain't grinding for a unicorn

[real creek]

lol

[spare cove]

Week 2 twitch drops are up

[tiny oar]

not for me

im loving twitch drop

[spare cove]

Cool. I'm still getting them

[latent patio]

Thanks for the reminder!

Have they said when the dev stream is? Or did it happen already?

[kind veldt]

no new date for any stream so far

[lament quartz]

anyone else having the problem that u get the cosmetics from the twitch drops but not the caches?

[sullen snow]

[kind veldt]

so far thats what happened with most people

[spare cove]

Guess I should consider myself lucky

[latent patio]

Same, I got my caches last week fine

[grand blade]

Great, kill two named enemies taking over a heroic CP. But somehow only count as one for the daily project. That's just great.. 🤦🏽‍♂️

[latent patio]

not me just finding out what those countdown coins are for

[patent peak]

hi, im just playing this game for 2 weeks, i wonder how to finish weekly quests when world tier doesn't exist anymore?

[spare cove]

World Tiers aren't mandatory for completing Weekly Projects. All it asks is that you complete a number of activities, kill a number of named enemies, and complete a couple of missions.

[patent peak]

i already did the summit challenge to 15th floor, it still 0/15 when i reach 15th floor, and it says " Requirement World tier 5 "

same goes to other quests

[elfin verge]

Have you already reached level 40?

[patent peak]

yes

[elfin verge]

Hmm that's weird then

[weak mango]

quick question guys, whats better to buy, the division 2 or breakpoint?

[patent peak]

so possible this problem just for new player then ? i play with my friends before and already world tier 5, they can complete the weekly quests

[latent patio]

Question, how do you all decide what gear mods to keep? Just perfect rolls, or above a certain threshold for more useful stats, or..?

[spare cove]

You're in the Division server, what do you think?

[iron gust]

Have you completed warlords? That used to be an issue and still probably is

[elfin verge]

Perfect rolls, non-perfect for other chars until more perfect rolls drop

[latent patio]

other chars?

[elfin verge]

Yep so I mainly play one character, hence it having all the perfect mods. Then the other 3 characters use non-perfect mods since I don't use those characters as often

[latent patio]

Ahhh. Why 4 characters, out of curiosity?

[elfin verge]

1 main for all the regular play, 2 and 3 for extra projects and priority objs, 4 is expendable and only for shd level resources

[lunar hare]

plus the raid chests

[latent patio]

Ahhh, I see

[elfin verge]

But it's not really needed. I have a lot of spare time so I figured why not

[latent patio]

Sure, makes sense, if you like the game that much 🙂

I just started playing again recently and I'm enjoying it a lot. Originally played when it first came out, got to level 30 and DZ level 15ish before quitting

[elfin verge]

That's true

[latent patio]

Yeah, doesn't seem too bad, and shared resources makes it useful. How do you share items? Is stash shared across your account?

[elfin verge]

Yep stash is shared

[latent patio]

Ahhh, I see. So just crafting resources and stash?

[elfin verge]

Resources, blueprints, stash

[latent patio]

Yeah, that's a big bonus.

Is there a max number of characters?

Gotcha

[scenic tapir]

is 5x xp out ?

[latent patio]

12 hours, I think

How many hours do you have in division 2, out of curiosity?

[hybrid ore]

XP Boosts drop the same time as a server reset.

[scenic tapir]

when is server reset ?

[kind veldt]

tomorrow

[latent patio]

I am SHD 49, lol

[tough citrus]

Is this a few days or until Monday /Tuesday for 5x? Guessing Tuesday to Tuesday?

[latent patio]

SHD's not shared across characters, right?

[elfin verge]

It is yes

[latent patio]

Oh it is

Yeah, that's what I'm hoping 🙂

[elfin verge]

Yep this is why people make 'mule' characters, i.e. they get one to level 40 and use the watch levels to refill their resources etc

[latent patio]

Oh damn, so if I hit 40 on another character, I get all those resources I've already gotten on my main (specifically from choosing shd watch resource levels)?

[hybrid ore]

If I've done this right, this is roughly when the 5x XP event starts: <t:1741680000:t> , done locally.

[tough citrus]

Do we know how many days yet?

[hybrid ore]

In about 11 hours.

[elfin verge]

I wouldn't bother until you're at like 2-3k SHD honestly

[lunar hare]

they meant how much will it last lol

[latent patio]

Yeah, I'm not planning on doing it soon, good to know though. Thank you all!

[hybrid ore]

3 days was the last time, but right now we don't have ingame info about how long the 5x XP Event will last.

[elfin verge]

That's a point. I assumed it would be all week with it starting at the weekly reset

[latent patio]

Oh, I'm a bit confused on one stat in particular. What exactly does "Repair Skills" do?

[hybrid ore]

The 3x XP event is longer, for point of reference.

[tough citrus]

Yea, just would be odd to do 3 days during the work week 😑😑 hope not, wouldn’t be very fun. But also seems like events might be Tuesday - Tuesday now??? I mean if u think about it, it’s only 1000 levels. Then xp is done. So giving everyone a week vs giving them 3 days during the work week doesn’t sound right

[lunar hare]

mainly used in Healer builds.
heal chem launcher has a variant that heals any ally armor

[hybrid ore]

Realistically, to start getting worthwhile returns on SHD Watch mules, you need to be SHD 1500+
Outside of that, it's really up to you.

[latent patio]

Ahhh, gotcha. Does it also affect things like "Gain x% armor when you kill an enemy"?

[hybrid ore]

You can also just avoid a Mule entirely and do things like the Solar CP Farm.

[lunar hare]

I don't think so

[quasi apex]

hi guys i am in journey mission 3 and i finished 6 missions but i can not get the rewords any help ?

ok i will ty

[small spear]

it doesn't either

if repair skills doesn't work with something, neither will incoming repairs

[quick oar]

Finally got Merciless and that thing is whack

[latent patio]

Do we know exotic drop rates?

[quick oar]

if it had lower recoil it'd be good but it's nearly impossible to land two shots quickly outside of point blank range

[quick oar]

Does it change?

I have an image showing it but I don't know if it's up to date

[elfin verge]

There's an infographic somewhere with the drop rates on various difficulties, mostly around 1% iirc, from regular enemies. Then there's like 10% drop chance from raid/incursion chests I think

[lucid kernel]

any one doing iron r

[real creek]

Exo drop rates are tiny for normal loot but it's boosted tons via TL and rewards via missions.

[elfin verge]

Oh and three weapons you can get in the DZ with like 0.0024% chance

[lucid kernel]

[real creek]

Try there

[real creek]

They can't see that lol

They have no platform roles

[elfin verge]

Ah yes, no roles yet damnit

[latent patio]

so it's probably not surprising that I haven't had an exotic drop at all, since I'm only shd49?

[real creek]

Depends on your world diff really.

[lucid kernel]

no access

[real creek]

Go get yourself a role.

[elfin verge]

You need to select your server roles before you can access them

[latent patio]

Challenging for the past 20ish levels, hoping to move on to Heroic soon

[elfin verge]

I'm so used to seeing the Ubi logo next to everyone's name I assumed it was pc xD

[real creek]

You do countdown yet? Challenging diff will net you an exo cache ever two runs or about 30ish min.

You also have weekly projects that give you exo caches.

[latent patio]

Done 4 or 5 countdown so far, no caches that I saw

[real creek]

Vendor in the boo

[elfin verge]

Priority objectives are good for exotics too. You can reroll/abandon if you want to change activities too

[real creek]

lil computer south of the heli pad outside the whitehouse.

If you can't find it I have an image I can link and @ you in another channel.

[latent patio]

Will check in a sec, doing a control point rq

[real creek]

#ask-td2-community message

[latent patio]

Ohhhh the ones you can buy with the countdown coins, yeah, just saw that vendor today. Bought 1 cache, close to a 2nd

[real creek]

Noice. Yeah exo drops in open world from normal loot is SUPER low chance tho.

[latent patio]

How hard are Incursions?

Oh, seems like they're just like story missions? Thought they were special content like countdown or summit

Okay nevermind I got wrecked

[small spear]

it's a miniraid

[quick oar]

0.024% on heroic raid

[real creek]

I'd suggest you get a teaching run with 4 people in.

Like most things in life it's not hard if you know what to do and come prepared.

There are other discords that have VC so you might wanna search up some of them.

[keen osprey]

Interesting that they've changed up the starting time for the x5 xp. The last few had always been just for weekend.

[latent patio]

Why does my Matches Abandoned in Conflict say -1? Lmao

I've also never played any matches (says 0 matches played)

[fervent wind]

is pestilence still a worthwhile exotic in any capacity? just robbed a pretty good rolled one off a dude in the dark zone

just wondered if its worth extracting or not

[small spear]

it's good but you can find it easily in pve as well

you can extract, but if you lose it just farm it again

[fervent wind]

yeah i know just wondered if i should actually make the effort to extract it or just leave it be and carry on farming

[latent patio]

My game is stuck on "Mercy Rule" after winning a conflict match... do I need to alt+F4?

Oh nvm, just took a couple minutes

[fiery slate]

I would

[fervent wind]

also dark zone question, if im farming for exotics should i care about if the landmarks im hitting are heroic or not? or does it not make that major of a diff for exotic drops

[tiny oar]

lmao, frienzed tank boss drained my entire ammo stock

[tiny oar]

what exotic ?

[fervent wind]

eb lol

[tiny oar]

doesnt matter then, but the chances are so low, you're better off running raid 80 times

[fervent wind]

yeah but you can only run dh once per week right?

[latent patio]

Conflict actually isn't as bad as I thought it would be... decent XP too

[tiny oar]

no, you can run it as many times as you want, but you only get 1 key per boss per week, except razorback that drop it everytime, and every boss can drop eb

[fervent wind]

oh sick so the keys and chests are just on a weekly lockout

[tiny oar]

only 4 keys, not the 5th, and not the chest

if you farm dh 5 times you can open the cest 1 time

[latent patio]

what is "Discovery" difficulty for raids?

[tiny oar]

supposed to be a tutorial, but its bad, dont do it

[latent patio]

Can't matchmake on normal though.. do I need to do normal first to unlock higher difficulties?

[tiny oar]

there is only normal difficulty

and discovery

any exotic drop only on normal

[latent patio]

So they're solo?

[tiny oar]

wym solo ?

[latent patio]

when I go to try to matchmake on normal difficulty, it says you can't

[tiny oar]

you dont

you create a 8 player group, then do raid

[latent patio]

Oh, it's only premade groups?

[tiny oar]

yes

[latent patio]

That would explain why there's a whole channel for raid lfg

Thanks!

[tiny oar]

np

[dark sand]

mmhmm

[lean zinc]

How's everyone doing today

[fervent wind]

whats better on elmos? crit dmg or rpm increase?

[dark sand]

doing fine over here .. anotha day anotha grind

[lean zinc]

I'm ready for the 5x xp tomorrow

[dark sand]

[lean zinc]

I'm shd 31 on my main character on the division 2

[dark sand]

very nice umm so far how deep are you into the story

[tiny oar]

dttooc

[fervent wind]

what does that stand for?

[lunar hare]

DMG to Target out of Cover

[lean zinc]

I been doing the black tusk mission its kinda hard to do bye myself have to call for backup most of the time

[fervent wind]

also whats the best way to get true son's tactical assessment?

[quick oar]

Is it normal for someone to be able to one shot everyone on countdown with the lever action rifle?

[small spear]

yes

[kind veldt]

probably with determined hot build

[quick oar]

He had two determined and a strained

[azure lintel]

Is damage to target out of cover really that strong, should I prioritize it over crit stat?

[kind veldt]

for a weapon roll? yeah

for general gear, it's usuall crit damage

[dark sand]

understandable .. endgame content go crazy

[rugged copper]

Hey guys, I just happen to finish the Capitol hill mission and everything seems to get reset afterwards, is it how it is suppose to be?

[tiny oar]

its different enemy taking over

[rugged copper]

What happens if I complete all of it again, does another new enemy takes over again?

[frigid coral]

why am i unable to laod into the game

when i hit space it wants me to joinn discord

[rugged copper]

One more question, I happen to see alot of activities positioned on top of the map serially one after another, are all of those DLCs? Or free to play? And if so, How do I play it?

[latent patio]

Is there any way to open apparel caches faster?

[kind veldt]

are you talking about black tusk invasion?

[azure lintel]

Sometimes gear has weird bonus stats like, 50%+ optimal range

What’s up with that

[latent patio]

Is the item's name orange?

[azure lintel]

Yes

[latent patio]

That means it's a Named Item. They sometimes have set attributes or special talents, and sometimes their set attributes can go higher than normal items

[azure lintel]

I see. Can any named item have any bonus or do specific named items get specific special attributes

[latent patio]

They get specific ones. There's a list of named and exotic items in the build hub linked in #td2-build-advice pins if you want to see what they all are

[astral jacinth]

Are the Week 2 drops live?

[latent patio]

Yes

Though I think I didn't get my caches this week... Earned them and claimed them on twitch a couple hours ago, but haven't gotten them in my mailbox

[rugged copper]

Yes mate

[rugged copper]

Someone answer please

[latent patio]

I think either the devs or Twitch messed something up. I claimed the exo cache and x2 named caches last week, and they were in my Tiwtch claim history, but they were removed when I claimed the new caches this week

[astral jacinth]

It seems the wave 2 drops arent appearing at all under the campaign drops menu

[latent patio]

They appeared for me, but claiming them didn't get me them and erased my last week's claims on Twitch drops page... weird.

[cobalt eagle]

There’s Twitch drops still for Div 2?

[latent patio]

Yes?

The game's still in active development, so why wouldn't there be?

[cobalt eagle]

I mean… I’ve never seen Twitch drops for Division 2 since the release week

[hybrid ore]

You've missed out on a few cool things then.
At one point, we got a couple of exclusive masks, I don't believe at least one of them has ever returned.

[spare cove]

Man, sounds like I've missed out

[hybrid ore]

If you really can't live without 2 more gasmasks: oof.

Granted, cool gasmasks. But still.

[spare cove]

Yeah, I don't need more masks 😛

I need Hunter masks.

[cobalt eagle]

You guys have masks?

[coral musk]

this has probably been asked like 10 times but, do we know what the shepard rank 99 cache has in it

[spare cove]

Ever since that final comm from last season, I wanted to have the 7th-gen Hunter mask.

[tiny oar]

ah great

someone decided to grief in legendary cause he didnt like another player

40min down the drain

i wish people were banned for this

[full zinc]

Vote kick ftw

[dim talon]

Hey guys can you just tell me something about the lore

Like Kelso betrayed the division and now his name is Cassandra?

[full zinc]

Can tell you to look up NGN on youtube

All the lore you ever need

[dim talon]

Oh thanks

[tiny oar]

cant, team didnt want to play as 3

so now we at boss, he left, we as 3

great

[full zinc]

Random group random results ig. I had a 3group in roos a day or 2 ago. 4th ragequit like halfway through because one guy kept driving forward... had 30min complete as 3 tho. Roos isnt to bad tho. Ymmv

Good to know Lyfe likes to gamble

[tiny oar]

i dont

[latent patio]

Got super lucky.. First exotic drop (during heroic countdown) was Coyote with max CHD roll and decent wd/chc 🙂 exactly what I was farming for

[tiny oar]

but i dont have a choice

we beat the boss as 2 players in the end

no thanks to them

but i wish a guy spamming hard r and nword in group chat could get a ban

[spare cove]

And if you have any other questions, @dim talon, you should ask in #division-universe

This channel moves too fast to discuss story stuff

[indigo quarry]

Anyone have a floor 100 checkpoint they can let me snag on xbox

[versed tendon]

I’m level 13 should I go to the dz or nah

[tiny oar]

no, keep that for when you're lvl 40 with a good build

except the dz intro you get, its a separate dz that wont have you meet players

[versed tendon]

Which dz is that cuz I was jus messing around in dz east but it was saying there was other players

[tiny oar]

i think you get an intro for dz east only, but it will be marked as objective on the map

[versed tendon]

Oh okay also I’m doing my steam drops too but I claimed the 2 names cashes and they didn’t appear in my mailbox

[tiny oar]

idk, twitch drop are buggy af

[versed tendon]

Okay I just hope I get them

[fervent wind]

holy shit div 2 base game + warlords is like £12 atm guess im switching over to pc

what with 5x exp event tomorrow too? god damn

[kind veldt]

Those kind of xp events only counts for people at lv 40 i think

[fervent wind]

how long is the exp event for? isnt it two weeks?

or is just one?

[frigid horizon]

@versed tendon my twitch drops this week all all claimed on twitch but I only received the arm patch and the weapon skin so far! Last week I didn't even get the arm patch

[cobalt eagle]

Twitch Drops are hit or miss…. Problem’s been going on since the invention of drops

[frigid horizon]

Yeah I'm aware of the issues I usually don't take part in them but when I do lol

[undone timber]

Last time it was 3 days so

[fervent wind]

maybe i should just stay on console then.. i was going to swap because i assumed the daily player pop was higher on pc

[steep cosmos]

Is future initiative broken in conflict whwre u take damage once and armor never fully recovers like being able to use medkit at 99% armor and the gear dosent proc the talent or is that a visual bug?

[cobalt eagle]

Don’t worry. We all are waiting for Div 3 to come out looks at Valve well, maybe transition to PC faster lol

[hybrid gust]

Is Negotiator bug from time toi time, there are time when I crit but mark won't apply or sometime the enemies won't be mark again once marker time up for some reason, and I saw my crit damage on them

[full zinc]

ive noticed some inconsistency with marking as well. idk if its visual and still transferring damage or not

[versed tendon]

I got em all last week so I’m not too bothered I jus hope I get this weeks exotic cache

[frigid horizon]

Yeah I only want the exotic though the named items aren't bad either

[versed tendon]

Their pretty decent

[vestal needle]

I think the drops went straight into inventory instead of being caches, could be wrong

[versed tendon]

I didn’t see anything I’ll check when I get back in

[vestal needle]

I think they did for me, had an exotic i dont remember having

But im probably tripping lmao

[latent patio]

What's the quickest/easiest way to get named enemies for daily project?

[fringe crow]

Guys i need help please.. finished the capitol.. saw the black tusk cutscene but i didnt get invaded!!

Cant progress trough story

Cant go to ny.. cant do anything…..

[kind veldt]

bounties are pretty fast

[latent patio]

Good call, thanks

[blazing edge]

so, is the lexington still available somehow? I took a break and didnt realize I should've signed in

[vestal needle]

From what ive seen no, its gone perma

Any tips on a group sub 4 min Lincon Memorial run?
I'm currently at #60 with 4:32.6~

[sly imp]

is there a way to see how many apparel caches i have it just says 99+ xd

[orchid merlin]

Hey everyone i am trying to find the 2 secret venders. I was using this https://divisiontimers.com/ as a tracker but now cassie says she is closed? but before the udate it said she was going to open. im confused. is she open and if so where is she? If she is closed then do i need to ifnd her immediately when she opens?

Also is the Kenly college tracker accurate?

[spring nebula]

hey i need to do a invade strong hold mission how do i know which one is invaded? they just say what faction they are

[jagged prism]

usually when you goto the map the screen will show tidal basin then red lines stretching from that to the invaded stronghold for that week

[feral mural]

^^

if that isn't there, that means there's no invaded stronghold

[jagged prism]

think the strongholds changes between Manning Zoo, Capitol Building, Roosevelt Island. feel i'm missing one

oh yeah, District Union

[fickle edge]

5x XP and golden bullet start at 12am pdt?

[simple forge]

Any bug fix to having scavenged skills applying to my game when it's not selected?

[fickle edge]

I think that and special ammo are mixed up

[simple forge]

Holy moly.

[thorn zodiac]

Hey guys a girls I just got back in to dv2 on pc I played when the game first released on console so I’m new to pc I’m about two or three weeks in my journey but if I’m not mistaken that means I get that exotic rifle when I complete the mission right?

[simple forge]

LOL you're right, it even shows the tickets on the UI but the cooldown resets like normal.

[thorn zodiac]

It’s say the name of a exotic rifle I don’t have be side the missions i haven’t done yet

[kind veldt]

journey gives exotic caches, you gotta be more specific about what rifle exotic you are talking about

[gritty oracle]

I hit 40 on my boosted character.
What are some key things I should be doing to start making builds?

[kind veldt]

find what you like and build towards that

[fickle edge]

collect talents and max rolls to the library too

[gaunt dust]

Do you guys think if Tencent buys Ubi we’ll see the Chinese exotics?

[woven pumice]

Hope so

Maybe content too!

[desert falcon]

For what purpose? You don't have access to your inventory during Descent anyway

[vestal needle]

Twitch drops? What?

I was responding to something about twitch lol

[dire ravine]

Please no

[fickle edge]

oh wow the xp event and golden bullet doesn't unlock until an hour from now lol

[thorn zodiac]

Anyone leveling up a second character that I can join In a lil bit to level up my second character

[zinc bramble]

I thought there was a weapon that had a holstered skill that applied to your build as long as it was in your holster

[molten spire]

not since WONY came out

[zinc bramble]

Ahhh ok I was like crap where did it go lol

[flat solar]

some received their named cache drops from Twitch...some dont i only got my Patch and the Skin....the Exo drops (last week too) and the named caches this week are still missing...

[fickle edge]

5xp event is a whole week this time

[lunar hare]

shiiii please send a screenshot in the other channel

[fickle edge]

dont need to im in game

[lunar hare]

alr alr appreciate it

[scarlet musk]

yep can confirm

and you can win 1000 levels max

[cedar shard]

So no kenly college this week??? So whats the fastest way to lvl up instead for this week??? Anyone

[undone timber]

Kenly was an exploit and has been patched I believe

[elfin hazel]

control points & public executions would give the most

[cedar shard]

😭😭😭MY SHAYLAHHHHHH

[fickle edge]

golden bullet bug is still there

[cedar shard]

What bug is that???

[fickle edge]

kenly isnt available anyways

[fickle edge]

you can't do the 2nd part of the manhunt cause its not invaded lmao

[lunar hare]

We've been blessed

[green pond]

damn didnt expect the invaded blacktusk missions to change back into the original enemies while fighting them

[lunar hare]

I assume they thought we didn't have enough xp events last season lmfaooo

[fickle edge]

i guess the only way to do 2nd part of manhunt is if you have a black tusk bounty but is that even possible in downtown east?

[flat solar]

i cant understand why the changed it from old Judicary Square on Testserver which way it worked and you can do part two of the Scout 3 Mission...to ALL Downtown East on the Live Server and screwed it up....perfect again....

[fickle edge]

white house area has skill mods target loot too

[flat solar]

One in a Million if you dont have Invasion goilng on there...

[fickle edge]

yeah and the theatre blockade is on federal triangle

[dire ravine]

It's actually on the trello board already n in #news-and-announcements for the black tusks issue

[scarlet musk]

so i guess, golden bullets ennemies being not shown on the hud is intended

[gaunt valley]

just got a bighorn from the summit, only took ~20 tries i think 🙏

[scarlet musk]

Congrats 😠
Happy for you 😠

[gaunt valley]

( :

[wicked raft]

Anyone has issues of black tusk in the downtown east for the manhunt, I can't see even 1 black tusk in downtown east

[dire ravine]

Lmaoo mods gonna have fun with this one all day

[dire ravine]

Check #news-and-announcements it was stated yesterday that this would be an issue. It's on the trello board will be fixed next Tuesday

[cyan narwhal]

killing them doesnt even count for me

[wicked raft]

So we can't finish this week's manhunt wright?

[dire ravine]

Or try to find anyone who has a black tusk bounty in that area. I know people were getting ready for this yesterday by making sure they had one

[wicked raft]

And one more question, what is this for 5xp, ?

[tender wave]

Capture some/all of the CPs in downtown east and look for hostage rescue activities (green handcuffs), they're often black tusk even if the area isn't invaded.

[scarlet musk]

Around Tidal bassin are a few

[dire ravine]

Yes get 5xp up to 1k lvls. Going on for a week

[wicked raft]

You mean this 5xp for seasonal xp for the burden of the truth?

[dire ravine]

For your shd lvl so your watch

[wicked raft]

Ohh, I thought its for my seasonal journey 😆

[fickle edge]

there is one for that much later though

[drifting willow]

When is the Division Day stream?

[alpine gale]

wow some people never listen and now im the bad guy for being correct..friend traded his ps5 in for a pro and is mad atm he cant understand why div2 isnt giving him the same upgrade as series x or pc...when i told him on ps5 ur still playing the backwards compaability version of the version for ps4 pro and wont look nay better from ps4 pro to ps5 pro maybe faster load times of 5-7 secs he not happy,and then for a sony rep to confirm it to him in email lol next time i must rem to just keep nodding my head and smile

[rugged copper]

Is the division 2 server currently down?

[fickle edge]

oh they list the levels now instead of the actual xp that you've gotten from the event thank god

[fickle edge]

nope im playing rn

[alpine gale]

@rugged copper no ok on pc check twitch loads playing atm

[rugged copper]

Yeah it worked rn, the first time it showed unavailable 😦

[low lily]

We barely getting new content, them doing upgraded versions for new gens would be too much work for them

[pliant sentinel]

who up spoilering the scout

[remote pecan]

#td2-general-chat message

[alpine gale]

6 bounties in manhunt area and zero blacktusk lol big fail this week till fixed

[tender wave]

@alpine gale ^

[alpine gale]

@tender wave tried that old trick still same only got 1 thou might have to reset cp tks again

[pliant sentinel]

thanks bud

[arctic cloak]

I play the disk version of the game but it said the NY DLC was included😢

And it isn’t 😢

[tender wave]

Only one but if you clear it and wait around a bit it should respawn, plus it'll reward a bounty, so that's more BT to kill

If you group up that means more enemies (although you might all be trying to steal each others kills)

[remote pecan]

yea you don't need to clear all CPs, there is one right above DUA which spawns with all reds
see here >>> #ask-td2-community message

[tender wave]

I never seem to get that one

[remote pecan]

sometimes there is a Public Execution, but once you clear it
there is a possibility for a Hostage Rescue

[tranquil shard]

Been trying to hard to get the overlord exotic shot gun for weeks and it just ain’t dropping .. I haven’t even seen an exotic drop in over a week in countdown … the loot gods have forgotten me ahha

I know the shot gun isn’t even great just want it

[rugged copper]

Anyone wanna explain me the tinkering thing as well as the crafting?

I do happen to have alot of crafting stuffs but Im confused what to do with them

[pliant sentinel]

SNITCH TO THE RESCUE

BLACK TUSK BOUNTY

[soft barn]

No Kenly this xp event cycle?

[plucky bridge]

idk how kill blacktask in downtown east this week?
i dont have blacktask bounties in downtown east

[alpine gale]

snitch gave me hyena bounty in the area lol and 4 green handcuff advents same lol cant be arsed will wait till fixed

[tender wave]

Yes

[tender wave]

Are they not counting for the kills then?

[rancid sphinx]

OMG....once again the minds are working at ubisoft. 20 black tusk kills in downtown east for the manhunt. my goodness. why are they so damn dumb?

[pliant sentinel]

yeah they definitely need to fix this asap

i was super lucky to get the BT bounty from snitch

[alpine gale]

@tender wave no cant a blacktusk version but then 2 popped from a manhole and that count 2 only

nice

[tiny oar]

No, hostage rescue only appear if you have friendly cp

[tender wave]

I'm actually rather surprised they spotted the issue before it went live

[tender wave]

#ask-td2-community message
Not always true ^

[tiny oar]

Isnt there another CP around ?

[remote pecan]

You're wrong here, it spawns often there without having all greens as you can even see in my screenshot.

[tiny oar]

I never got a spawn without a green around like ever,

[remote pecan]

skill issue

[tiny oar]

À single green CP can created it even a bit far

[remote pecan]

I mean even target practice spawns in that area without green CPs, it is just not very common.

[tiny oar]

That's cause of the settkements

[alpine gale]

goodluck getting them from snitch and rescue tried again on my other alts same thing snitch gave true sons 2 times and rescue same hyenas

[manic loom]

So no kenly this week?

[viral pond]

Just wander back and forth east and west and you will find black tusk randomly spawn - it takes about 30mins but you can complete it

[scarlet musk]

Bahaha rifles with GB hits stupidly hard

[remote pecan]

tbh there is also one spawning in Constitution Hall and there is no settlement

[tiny oar]

There is one just above ?

[remote pecan]

different area, I have never seen one in Federal Triangle and there is also one right above, so it doesnt affect other areas, nevertheless the Hostage Rescue in Downtown East can spawn without green CPs

[rugged copper]

What do I do with so much SHD Tech points I have? My perks are maxed out

[sterile ferry]

nothing, aside from perks and skills

[tender wave]

Some can be spent on the caches in NY safehouses, but you'll probably have some left over with no further use

[sterile ferry]

and the yellow crates in nyc yup

[abstract rapids]

The most usefull things is getting ressources out of it

[rugged copper]

Fr? I have like 70 more and still some missions left and so will get bout 15-20 more

[rugged copper]

how do I do it??

And is the new york free to play? How do I access it?

[abstract rapids]

You can spend your SHD on the five place of the watch

[rugged copper]

Whenever I go to the pilot, it redirects me to go to shop and purchase it

[abstract rapids]

(forgot the name)

[rugged copper]

Could you please elaborate more? Im kinda new to it, just going with the flow in the game with dozens of confusion, Thanks in advance!

[sterile ferry]

theyre talking about the stuff you get out of tiny black cases i think

[abstract rapids]

There you can pick either "gold", from dropable ressources,etc

[sterile ferry]

not the watch, im guessing

[rugged copper]

Direct me where and how do I get to it?

[rugged copper]

?

[abstract rapids]

When inside the watch, there is the scavenging place

To go inside the watch, inventory, top right corner

[abstract rapids]

Take the copter in the white house

the one near the main entrance if I remember right

[rugged copper]

I did go there, but Im unable to go to NY

It tells me to go to shop and buy it as DLC

[abstract rapids]

Did you talk to the pilot ?

[sterile ferry]

you need the paid expansion for new york

[rugged copper]

It doesnt let me :/

[abstract rapids]

Wasn't that made free ?

[rugged copper]

F

🙂

[sterile ferry]

only lvl 40 was made free, the map of nyc is still paid

[tender wave]

You sure you've unlocked all your skills, all variants? It's common to have like 10-20 left at most

[sterile ferry]

yeah 70 is way too much

[rugged copper]

All the skills are unlocked, and for the variants, I unlocked only the ones which match my playstyle, is it necessary to unlock all variants?

[tender wave]

Yes, unlock everything

[rugged copper]

For eg, I use drone and pulse and only 1 variant of each is unlocked (the ones I play)

[tender wave]

No reason not to

[abstract rapids]

always usefull

[rugged copper]

Umm okay then!

What about the tinkering thing as well as the specialisation?

I happen to go in these 2 and keep clicking whatever I can lmao

[abstract rapids]

some journey or other challenge also ask you to play underplayed skill

[abstract rapids]

tinkering is for min-max

try just to build something that allows you to do heroic and then Legendary

Along with other side activity

[tender wave]

Over time you'll want to max out your library in tinkering, and unlock/max out all specialisations, no rush though

[rugged copper]

All of it went over my head, im sorry 🙂

[tender wave]

Expertise part of tinkering is a long term endgame thing, not worth worrying about at first

[rugged copper]

And the descent thing? I reached loop 5 and died then, what happens next?

[abstract rapids]

spend your NSA point and try to beat Nemesis

[tender wave]

Mostly for fun, can earn some useful blueprints for items that are a pain to farm, but not essential

[abstract rapids]

The other thing are a not so good exotic and blueprint from reconstructed cache

[rugged copper]

If I go to descent, does it start all over from Loop 1?

[abstract rapids]

yeah

[rugged copper]

Wtf

How many loops are there in total?

[abstract rapids]

but by spending your NSA tech point on bonus, getting higher loop is easier

[gaunt nacelle]

health bar of enemy not fixed AHAH

[abstract rapids]

no limit

but ennemy with one shot you at some point

[rugged copper]

Bruh

How do I reach nemesis then?

How does descent mechanics work?

[abstract rapids]

each room increase the nemesis encounter

[tender wave]

If you pick always easy rooms you can reach nemesis at end of loop 5, otherwise might be a loop or two later

[rugged copper]

I did reach 100%

[abstract rapids]

when you reach 100%, at the end of the loop (after beating the arena) you will met the nemesis

[buoyant aurora]

Hm, so BT bounties in Downtown East doesn't seem to count for manhunt activity 2...? I've done 3 so far, and still have 0/20.

[abstract rapids]

did you beat the arena ?

[tender wave]

Maybe that's the actual bug that is on the trello, not the lack of invaded activities

Can't test myself until work is finished sadly

[remote pecan]

had the same issue, just relog @buoyant aurora

[tender wave]

Saw a report that killing them in Judiciary Square counted, for some reason

[rugged copper]

I reached loop 5 and then died at some point

[abstract rapids]

Did you meet with the Nemesis ?

You can't miss it

you are forced to fight it at the end of the loop when your Nemesis jauge reach 100%

There is also a bug for the first time you kill the nemesis, you need to finish loop 8 for week project reward

[plucky bridge]

i found how to kill blacktask in downtown east this week
at first you must do all control point in downtown east

[abstract rapids]

convoy ?

[tender wave]

Hostage rescue

[plucky bridge]

yeah

if all control point is green in downtown east,
hostage rescuue appear in there
it must be blacktask

[buoyant aurora]

Yep. Relog worked. Had to do another bt bounty for the previous kills to show up. (killed 1, suddenly the counter went from 0/20 to 17/20).

[plucky bridge]

and also drop blacktask bounties

[orchid merlin]

what time does the exp start?

[unreal perch]

Now

[remote pecan]

it is active, you can always check the timer ingame

[orchid merlin]

Awesome! ill have to log in then. And i am not on yet. Does Kenly run when events happen>

How do i see where golden bullet progress is?

[spare cove]

Did anyone try ||Black Tusk bounties|| for Scout mission 3, or did that not work?

[tender wave]

Yes, see above

[spare cove]

Good to know

[zinc sky]

I'm considering to chill in DC today and just hop on incoming backup calls, to push my shepherd rank a bit

[tiny oar]

should have done that last week for the 3x bonus

[zinc sky]

Yeah, i would've loved to but i was busy with irl stuff so i didn't have much time to play

[desert falcon]

Manhunt Week 3 Activity 2 : "Eliminate Black Tusks in Downtown East"... but there no any Black Tusks on the map, Any ideas?

[tiny oar]

get bounties

[zinc sky]

Isn't that the known issue they're working on?

I think they plan to drop a fix on the 18th

[desert falcon]

from whom... from the Hyenas?

[remote pecan]

snitch or hostage rescues or matchmake or ask a mate if he/she has one

[tender wave]

Hostage rescues are often BT, capture a few CPs to help them spawn

[hybrid gust]

how do you make black tusk spawn in downtown east? need that for scount

[desert falcon]

OK. That might be a good idea. Thank you.

[tender wave]

Read the post above yours

[hybrid gust]

lol

[grand blade]

LOL! You can't have both the golden bullet and modifiers active simultaneously... BORING, DEVS! BORING! 🙄

[hybrid gust]

Should have read that befor I reset all CP

[zinc sky]

If you kill one of the main hunters like the lion eyes guy, do you get their masks as apparel too or only for the mask wall?

[iron gust]

Both

[hybrid ore]

Just a heads up: If you only kill 1, you'll need to re-do the Hunt in order to get the rest, and probably only after a reset.

[low quartz]

Does anyone know what I have to do with activity 2 scout 3

[hybrid ore]

The Choke Control Point (CP).

If you ever want a guaranteed answer: someone posts the full answers on Reddit about an hour or so after they go live each week.

[low quartz]

K

I’m in downtown east

[alpine gale]

yeah if u have max alts made i just went on one that had basically nothing completed on the map and washington was invaded and invaded is blacktusk boom 20 kills 2nd room and then left it so its still invaded

[desert falcon]

Unfortunately, it doesn't work! I freed the hostage and got the Bounty on Hyenas... not for Black Tusks. The problem is still open. So far I've only found one solitary BT Tank on this map.

[tender wave]

I said often, not always: give it time and see if any more hostage rescues spawn

[alpine gale]

@desert falcon have u any alts that were never used for much they should have wash hotel as invaded blacktusk manhunt is shared now the progression

[desert falcon]

I understand that I have to try many times? OK, I have no choice. It was poorly designed

[tender wave]

You could just wait until next week, they have promised to fix it

[desert falcon]

I don't have a single hunt in this area. The one that was... was the subject of Activity 1

I will be looking for more hostages to release.

[alpine gale]

ah i see

[hybrid ore]

Honestly, the fastest Scout I've done in quite a while.

This just goes to show you the importance of setting up Bounties for later.

[cinder hollow]

someone please help i receive error that division 2 server are not available
what should i do

[sonic lintel]

Is it 5x XP today?

[south topaz]

yes

[sonic lintel]

On what

I'm new and need XP for watch

[pliant sentinel]

5pcs hardwired and all of em is 20 expertise?

what am i looking at

[south topaz]

troll build

[hybrid ore]

Countdown build, right? It's the wild west.

[hybrid ore]

All platforms are insync, pretty much.

[pliant sentinel]

i'll post it in #td2-build-advice

how does one get so much resources for this

[quaint stone]

Anyone doing manhunts on PC?

[low quartz]

Scout 3 is still bugged

[quaint stone]

Damn

[low quartz]

Have wait unit next Tuesday

[misty lotus]

Is keener outfit on there today?

[pliant sentinel]

yup

the hooded one

[misty lotus]

Awesome. Will buy it on pc when home ahahaha

Thanks dj chicken for answering

[tiny oar]

its not

i just did it

[pliant sentinel]

its not bugged its just difficult || to find black tusk at DTE||

[vagrant sigil]

anyone else having constant issues with Shield cooldown bug? stuck at 1s?
No matter how many times I disable scavenged skills

[misty lotus]

Everyone there will be a YouTube video to get around it and finish it ahahah just wait

[tender wave]

Disable special ammo as well, the two seem to be interlinked somehow

[vagrant sigil]

Interesting, I'll try that.
Somehow it fixed itself after about 5th time of disabling & relogging. When I relogged it had a completely different arrangement of directives that I didn't select.

Some kind of sync issue.

[robust kite]

I'm assuming 5x today works in Warlords of NY.

[hybrid ore]

Any XP gained whilst you have a SHD Watch on that character.

So no levelling from 1-40. Only after.

[robust kite]

ahh cool, yeah. I'm on SHD Watch

[desert falcon]

It worked. Thanks. However, I had to eliminate almost all the enemies in Downtown East and then appeared the task of rescuing a hostage from... Black Tusk. That solved the problem 🙂

[tender wave]

Glad it paid off in the end!

[stark heron]

Its not an invaded zone this week huh

Thats a hassle ig

[tender wave]

Nope

[stark heron]

Normally it lines up, suppose they forgot?

[alpine gale]

if u have any max spare alts that have not completed much in dc then they should have every mission as invaded my 3rd and 4th alt had wash hotel as invaded black tusk 20 kills frist 2 rooms then quit so it u can keep it for later as i bet blacktusk next week same area

[hoary cave]

If anyone speaks Spanish please let me know privately, I can't read everything so please send it privately, thanks

[mental harbor]

I have a question. I have just reinstalled the game after god knows how long but it wont let me buy or purchase the newest expansion.

[tender wave]

Newest? There's only been one expansion so far, Warlords of New York

[mental harbor]

I thought the burden of truth was one
