[gloomy sleet]

Why is Countdown lead not passed off when a player goes afk? We get stuck with countdown groups that never start and it appears it gets prioritized so new groups can't be used as a workaround

[full zinc]

start creating your own countdown groups and never run into that again

[pseudo lark]

servers ded?

[kind veldt]

Nope

[steady grove]

can someone please help me

first time player

where do i get striker set?

[lofty surge]

anywhere with it as targeted loot

you can change what the targeted loot is only in the summit and countdown

[steady grove]

where do i see that brandy?

[lofty surge]

press R on the map screen

[steady grove]

i’m only level 7

[lofty surge]

oh then do NOT worry about all that

just play the game, have fun with the main quest

there is absolutely no reason to worry about specific builds until you are level 40

[steady grove]

but i just want to fly through the game

hahaha oh really?

is there a way i can speed up my levelling?

[lofty surge]

even if you did acquire the striker set at such a low level, in 2-3 levels the entire set would be outdated anyways

[steady grove]

ah okay

should i just be doing main missions?

[lofty surge]

ya im fairly sure thats the best way to level up

if you really want to skip the early game and just get to endgame, if you purchased the ultimate edition of the game you'll have a character skip that skips you straight to level 30

[atomic ferry]

yea but it skips all the missions though

and it locks some achievements or so it says

[lofty surge]

idk i loved the main story but some people prefer it for some reason

my friend cared about literally nothing but getting to endgame and getting a strong build as fast as humanly possible, so he popped the boost as soon as he heard about it

[atomic ferry]

I want to boost the level but do all the story but nope 😦

[lofty surge]

well tbh there's really no point in boosing if you're interested in the story anyways

by the end of the story you'll be in the 30-40 range

[atomic ferry]

i just wana test out all the skills immediately lol

[lofty surge]

don't worry you get them fast, you do not have to be anywhere near endgame to unlock all the skills

[steady grove]

well that’s what i want to do

is there a flashlight button

[mystic schooner]

Can anyone play with me on the new york dlc just got it today

[full zinc]

#lfg-playstation

[queen saffron]

Any runs?

[still copper]

New to the division 2, im on the stronghold portion of the story. Is this something I should request help on or do as a group?

[young tiger]

You will be fine playing that by yourself, and it's better that way so you can take your time and enjoy it... if you call for backup you'll probably get people that have done it countless times and will want to fly through it. Play it solo and enjoy the ride.

[zinc lichen]

strongholds arent very strong

[lofty surge]

nothing on story difficulty is very strong, its all a breeze until you start trying to move up difficulties

[atomic ferry]

is the decent hard?

[kind veldt]

eh, nemesis boss is kinda hard and it will get hard later on hte run

[atomic ferry]

so its not something i should try at level 11? XD

[inner elbow]

Nope

It requires some assumed knowledge about how combat works in the game

[atomic ferry]

i know how the combat works.... i shoot stuff and it dies!!!! 🙂

[lofty surge]

yea descent replaces your gear with its own stuff so you dont have to be geared up to play it, but you need to be real good at the games combat to succeed

[kind veldt]

you can do it at any level, not sure if the reward will be any good

[atomic ferry]

i was just wondering cuz i have a project

[inner elbow]

It's not, the lv 30 reward table still exists. Better to wait till lv 40

[inner elbow]

The project is optional, it refreshes weekly

[swift temple]

Do they ever refresh or add stuff to the apparel cache? Getting textiles is better than nothing I guess but would be nice with some new stuff. Feels like that loot been there for ever

[blazing spear]

Hahahahahaha yeah they add stuff for money, but no actual content

[warm zodiac]

Good morning everyone. Any idea for PvP build? I tried one but need matador and I can't get it

[lunar hare]

Pinned spreadsheet in has a PvP guide → #td2-build-advice

[warm zodiac]

Thank you

[blazing spear]

I wish division was cross play. We could all be in 5 clans

[swift temple]

True 🙂 Just wished they added some stuff for people that been playing it for years and years. All we get is another currency, and not that much in Apparel store that can be bought with textiles anyway.

[blazing spear]

I hear you. I got lucky and logged in and got that black and red mask; but the time sink on this stuff and lack of content. No bueno

[static pulsar]

Is it possible to get the Pestilent via targeted loot LMGs? This thing looks busted af for an Lmg

[swift temple]

I do understand that they are working on the DLC and Division 3. I just came back after a break. And still not much to do. All I kind of do is "farm" for expertise levels these days. And being a full paid game, with paid DLC, they do tend to have quite a lot of microtransactions. Wish they had like some other "game pass" games that you could earn the "credits" for another "game pass".

After this many years, I think they should be more generous with "cosmetics" as this is kind of the last resort that enduring players only have left to farm. I guess having a SHD level of 15k is cool. But not much other than that. I turned of "directives" for more XP as it in most cases just get the gameplay annoying. NPC getting stuck somewhere else because of some "patrol" and no idea where they are for "fog of war". etc

[static pulsar]

Tbh I cant wait for the DLC to drop, and for Division 2 to become a great game again

[swift temple]

Yeah, really looking forward to it. Not sure how long it is. They said anything?

[static pulsar]

no idea imma be honest

but it should drop after this season tho

which is pretty damn soon actually

[swift temple]

After season could mean anything 🙂

[lunar hare]

I usually run with Scanner Pulse when Fog is active

[swift temple]

For me, the directives doesn't really add anything fun for me gameplay wise. And not really in any need of XP. Not super high level but I think around 1400 in SHD. Enough for me.

I do run challenge. Think that is most fun. Heroic just makes it irritating somewhat. To much bullet sponge and a "shotty" guy spawning in the back can wreck you so fast. Challenge at my current state fits me perfect

[worn gyro]

anyone got the floor 90 checkpoint pls @ me

[noble owl]

At the descent entrance there are buffs library, you will need to choose one at every level, on every level there are rooms marked with difficulty and you get to pick up/upgrade your weapons every few levels. Descent is not easy

[torpid urchin]

does anyone know in order to get ridgeway can summit be done on the easiest difficulties ?

[tiny oar]

i think so ye

[torpid urchin]

do i have to b mindful of the crates or its just smtg i shudnt miss

[tiny oar]

you just have to follow the quest

[torpid urchin]

theres a quest i need to pick up?

[tiny oar]

yes, its on the project tab once you have the requirements

check on google the ridgeway project to see what you need

[real creek]

You've got to obtain the components of the chest, each comes from a chest in certain floor ranges, then beating the final hunters grants you a crafting project you'd follow to craft it. Guides will detail out which parts come from which floor. You can also skip all of it by being gifted one or obtaining the blue print and farming TL/exo caches for one yourself.

[hybrid ore]

To start it, you need to complete Floor 100 of Summit, you don't need to do the entirety of Summit, just the last floor.

You can probably grab a close checkpoint over in #lfg-pc

[torpid urchin]

whats tl

[hybrid ore]

Targeted Loot, it's a system that allows you to get a specific type of loot faster, by dropping more commonly from enemies that are killed within that mission or zone.

The Project is worth doing, it's quite fast compared to some other ones.

(the reason Countdown is such a useful place to farm, is that you can pick your own TL within it, same as Summit).

[torpid urchin]

ohhhh

[hybrid ore]

You'll get the Project as soon as the flare is fired on the roof of Summit, after that it's fairly straight-forward.
The one thing to note, is that when it says "Rogues", it means NPC Rogues, not other players. You can find those by beating CP (control points) and they have a chance to spawn in at +1 Group Size, before the chest is unlocked.

[torpid urchin]

ehh i cleared 100 before w the help of a friend

didnt get the project i must have abandoned it

[inner elbow]

Can't be abandoned

[hybrid ore]

It's per-character.

[torpid urchin]

ehh im p sure i cleared it

is it the fast leather belt something

[hybrid ore]

That's the cowboy holster.

no relation to Summit.

[torpid urchin]

ehh

its ok, ill clear it again from 1, maybe i could keep an eye out to get those parts, those parts drop even if i dont have the project right

[hybrid ore]

No.

[torpid urchin]

owh

[hybrid ore]

You either have not finished 100 before on this specific character, have already completed the project, or are somehow missing it in your Projects menu.

[torpid urchin]

only if i have the project, the parts will drop? but i see keys on some floors tho

[hybrid ore]

The Keys are there no matter what, those chests will also spawn in parts to the Project once you obtain it.

[real creek]

Check to see if you have a blueprint to craft it. That'll indicate if you've finished it before.

[torpid urchin]

prolly not i didnt kill any rouge agents or hunter so i shouldnt have finished it

[hybrid ore]

Check your Masks, do you have one called Adamant?

[real creek]

Yeah you'd get that from killing floor 100 hunters.

[hybrid ore]

There's also some colour dye's too, but buggered if I know what they're called.

[torpid urchin]

r they just in my normal inventory or normal resource?

[hybrid ore]

Cosmetic Masks, Apparel Menu.

IIRC they're Green tiered, mask is silvery.

[torpid urchin]

from the sounds of it i dont

and im prolly btr off TL farming it ig?

[hybrid ore]

You can't TL farm an Exotic unless you have the blueprint, and you can't get the blueprint until you do at least most of the Project.

Here, check to see if you have this mask:

[torpid urchin]

wait i have that

mask

@hybrid ore

[tender wave]

The Ridgeway's parts DO drop in your first ascent, before you get the project at f100. There's one in every 20-floor range (1-20, 21-40, etc) and the exotic components include the level range in their name, so it's easy to see which ones you have so far.

[torpid urchin]

damnnnn ok

am i meant to have the project if i have that mask

[tender wave]

Check your exotic crafting bench, if you've got the blueprint (not recalibration but crafting) then you've already done the project

[torpid urchin]

er its locked

it says venture into summit

[tender wave]

Hmm, not sure how you could have got the mask without the project, maybe you reset progression after completing f100 without firing off the flare to complete the floor?

[torpid urchin]

oh ya i didnt

i just left

btw do the crates spawn in between transaction to floors or does it spawn in mission areas

[tender wave]

They spawn just before the end of each floor ending in 3, 6 or 9

[torpid urchin]

i found a crate, and its got poopoo inside

[tender wave]

You have to find the key during the preceding floors

But it's a big chest like control point ones

[torpid urchin]

its not guranteed?

i jz found one in 9 and opened it and jz normal droppas

[tender wave]

I think it is, but not 100% certain. Definitely a very high drop chance if you've not already got that part

You've got 6 chests in every 20-floor run

[torpid urchin]

this is gon b

[tender wave]

Also I would assume that if someone gave you a Ridgeway's already and it's in your inventory or stash, then the parts won't drop

[torpid urchin]

long long isnt it

er what if i dismantled it.....................

i did had smtg that looked like a ridgeway

[tender wave]

Should be fine if you dismantled or moved it to a different character's inventory

[tender wave]

I'd say get a hhf build and make sure the seasons modifier is active and just charge through on a low difficulty with the momentum buff to speed you on your way. It is a long tedious thing though, I'm not a fan of summit

[torpid urchin]

same

[tender wave]

Maybe equip a bunch of random stuff along with headhunter and a high powered determined pistol, and use the opportunity to gain a bunch of expertise along the way

[torpid urchin]

ill jz do the

[tender wave]

Awkward exotics, weak named items etc

[torpid urchin]

drone quest while im at it

i have a awk qs, how do i ghet up to the second floor if there isnt staircase

nvm found it

[zealous rover]

Hello

Is there a channel for PlayStation trophy helping and stuff?

[inner elbow]

Nope

what does SHD exposed mean? i clearly missed a cutscene or something

It's the global event that you can activate this week, see the timelines tab of the season menu for details

[pulsar quail]

Hello agents this is perfekt wather today an have good loock an many fun.

[final comet]

just farmed the last dz resources I needed for an exotic cache only to call extract and some dude teleported in, wiped out 3 people with one tap headshots, with nothing in the way of a DPS build lmfao

then magically teleport to a different extract and take all our stuff with him

[tiny oar]

welcome to cheaters in dz

[static pulsar]

DZ cheater playground

[grand blade]

I like that they made "improvements" to the Anti-Cheat, trying to make it harder for cheaters, which could also potentially cause some stability problems for normal players. The stability issues appear to have come true for some players, however the cheaters and the amount of cheating seem to be unaffected 🫤

[final comet]

I just wanna know who would bother cheating in a looter-shooter hahaha

[grand blade]

That really is the big question. I have no idea. Laziness? Trolling? 🤷🏽‍♂️

[tiny oar]

cheating and anti cheat is a game of cat and mouse, you will always catch them at some point, but they will come back later with something updated

and you have to update anticheat, then they update too, etc

[tiny oar]

there is a lot of (bad) reasons people cheat

they lost to someone, they dont understand the game and dont want to bother learning, they like making other people suffer, they wanna feel good, etc

srsly tho, dont cheat online people, in a solo game its fine, but in multiplayer it ruins the game for everyone

[torpid urchin]

anybody got a 61 or 81 cjheckpoint for summittt

[kind veldt]

try #lfg-pc

[grand blade]

Yeah, I get that. Just frustrating that the changes companies make to their anti-cheat software always seem to hurt the normal users more than the cheaters.

[tiny oar]

its cause if the anti cheat isnt invasive, it will be useless basically

you sacrifice qol for safety

same way drm make it hard for people to crack a game, but different intentions

[final comet]

I just can’t get over that the highest damage weapon they had only did 500k (marksman rifle) but I got one tapped by their 90k damage AR when they had full blue build lmao

[grand blade]

As a single player, I sadly don't have any upside to the anti-cheat lol 😋

[tiny oar]

well you can solo raids

or pvp

[grand blade]

Which is why I don't do raids.

And I hate pvp 🤣

[tiny oar]

i mean if you want dz exclusive item, you gotta pvp a little

[kindred urchin]

Am in a perma loop in the dark zone?

Cause i got glitched under the damn stairs.

Any idea how i can get out besides just logging?

[unique bramble]

Descent: hold my reconstructed cache

[grand blade]

Don't really want anything from dz. Not that I know of.

[tiny oar]

its named item only, some brand are dz only not just named

[tiny oar]

what about their items ?

[grand blade]

Not sure what is there, tbh.

[tiny oar]

lot of guns, gear, exotics, etc

[grand blade]

Most exotic weapons from this game are not really for me. I need my weapons to look cool (to me) and almost all don't.

Not sure what gear I could really need from there. All my load outs work pretty well.

[tiny oar]

what about getting expertise for them ?

or just test them ?

[grand blade]

My expertise is already maxed, from donating resources 😋

[grand blade]

Not worth the nuisance, since I have always hated pvp.

[tiny oar]

yeah but dz doesnt always mean pvp

also if you dont do raids, you're missing on a lot of good guns

same for dz

[grand blade]

Well, as I understand it, you are always at risk of getting jumped, and then loosing all the loot you have collected.

[tiny oar]

its a risk yeah, doesnt mean it happen everytime

also if you solo incursion or legendary its like insanely hard or impossible

[grand blade]

Hey, I am already beyond annoyed when I get jumped by regular rogue agents hahaha

[azure lintel]

I’ve just stopped caring about getting junped and let me tell you that the dz is as dead as ever most of the time

[unique bramble]

Depending on the time, you will find nobody on a Thursday morning compared to a Saturday night for example.

[azure lintel]

Most people suck anyways

[grand blade]

Yeah, which, again, is also why I don't do them. They also don't have anything I need. All the exotic weapons you can get from them, I would never use, because I hate the designs.

[final comet]

I work overnights so I get the joy of playing at 2-4am on my days off on OCE servers, no one in DZ at that hour

Was 10pm when I ran by the hacker I mentioned

[tiny oar]

so you're playing like 10% of the game ?

[final comet]

Each to their own I guess

[azure lintel]

You hate the regulus 🥺

[final comet]

Div 2 is a good time filler, why I picked it back up to begin with before I started caring about builds and stuff

[grand blade]

Hardly only 10%. For me, the storyline is the game. What I play now is just for fun 😅

[final comet]

Valid

[tiny oar]

thats still a minor part of the endgame

[final comet]

Endgame free roam can still be fun

[tiny oar]

im not saying its not fun

[final comet]

Nah I getcha

[static pulsar]

Every game is a time filler technically

[grand blade]

Truth be told, I have never had much interest in that kinda stuff. I am more about the adventure. End game always ends up becomming more about prestige, which is not for me.

[final comet]

Idk about you but I can only play so many games for 12 hours straight hahahaha

[forest elk]

What is the best way to farm xp and expertise. New player here

[tropic compass]

is the weekly project quests different for everyone?

[plain bane]

@tropic compass Yes because weekly only reset on Tuesday and also weekly are main missions mostly.

[tropic compass]

ohh I mean the quests within the main project like for me do activites in east mall would it be federal triangle for someone else

[bronze sluice]

she directive 51 on my predetermined rally point till a go rogue

[lunar hare]

what did he sayyyy

[torpid totem]

is there any spreadsheet which is getting updates? I used two sheets all along but those have not been updated since last season.

[tender wave]

They're the same for everyone. You'll usually find more people matchmaking for whichever mission is part of the daily project

[lunar hare]

have you tried the one pinned in #td2-build-advice ?

[torpid totem]

yes I use that along with another one, these two are the most used. But both of them have not been updated since last season as it seems. That's why asking

[lunar hare]

unless the patch notes say anything relevant to gear changes, everything is pretty much the same (I haven't read them)

[tender wave]

It's a bit behind but it is being updated, when the people have time

[torpid totem]

yes but I use them to make builds as everything is in one place, but if those are discontinued then it would be more work to put everything together

[torpid totem]

okay alright that's good news. I just wanted to know if they are discontinued or not. Thanks👍

[tender wave]

The one we keep pinned is definitely not discontinued. No idea about the other you're referring to.

[torpid totem]

I got the other one from the LFG server

[tropic compass]

ohh, I was in a group that was doing the project missions then started doing activities in other areas and wondered if they see something else

[tender wave]

They had probbly just completed their projects

[jaunty haven]

any can confirm overlord is now in general loot pool?

[kind veldt]

90% sure it is

[spare cove]

It 100% is.

Gear and weapons from previous seasons get added to general loot pool

[jaunty haven]

thank you good sir

wanted to know b4 i went and grinded countdown

[kind veldt]

#lfg-pc

[lyric crescent]

Haven’t touched the game in a month. I’m outta the loop, what’d I miss?

[tiny oar]

since last month ? not much

[edgy girder]

Can you still get the provocator exotic chest piece? And if so do you need to farm Theo still or?

[hazy wedge]

can anyone help me get better gear??

[kind veldt]

#lfg-pc

if you want advice you can try #ask-td2-community or #td2-build-advice

[kind veldt]

need to farm theo mission, either master for a guaranteed drop or regular versions for a chance

[willow zodiac]

So for skill tiers, there is tier 1-6 than under that is overcharge. is that like t7 or what is that?

[molten spire]

limited time status that's triggered by certain gun or gear talents, or the momentum seasonal gimmick this season - makes all your skills much stronger for the duration of overcharge

[willow zodiac]

ooo okay ty

[severe moon]

Can you only get dark winter in DZ?

[lunar hare]

or named caches

[static pulsar]

Whats so special about DW

[kind veldt]

Looks fancy

Nah im joking, talent is strong now and people love vector

[vital badger]

it seems a bug 2 mobs are inside texture of this container on the mission "eliminate the black tusk on roosevelt island", anything i can do?

[iron gust]

There's a blueprint in descent as well

[kind veldt]

Oxidizer skill

It ignores walls so it can deal damage to enemies stuck

[static pulsar]

are you kidding me?

Theres a blueprint of the gun I farmed hours for

[tiny oar]

you need to farm for many more hours to get that blueprint

[static pulsar]

Are people running Descent solo or matchmake in a group? Maybe its faster that way

[still oracle]

cant log is it my internet problem or servers are down?

[grim charm]

it's on your end, game is up right now, i'm currently playing

[still oracle]

oh ok thanks for info

[willow zodiac]

game is working for me also.

[grim charm]

Is it a known bug that directives just keep re-activating themselves? I've been trying to get rid of skill scavenger, but no matter how often I disable it and wait for the reload, it always activates again 😬

[tender wave]

that one is mixed up with special ammo - turn them both off and you should be OK

[grim charm]

Ahhhh thanks, was driving me nuts 😅

[hexed depot]

I love turning the hunters into the hunted

Plus having a trophy room for their masks in New York is sick

[formal epoch]

There's a room for the DC ones as well in the Whitehouse

[hexed depot]

The carbon mask Hunter has to be busted or something cause I’m following the steps and can’t get into the building the guide says

[static pulsar]

Masks? Wait, you get those masks as mtx for free?

Some of them look sick actually

[lofty surge]

Yes everytime you kill a hunter for the first time you take his mask

Most of them are an absolute pain to spawn though, if you want some easy ones the ones at the top of the summit and the one in the schaeffer hunt are easy to spawn

[static pulsar]

Ohh I see

Jesus you can do a shitton in Div2

[hexed depot]

Idk what’s wrong but the carbon mask steps don’t work

I shoot the electrical boxes, kill the mini boss, get the key, go to the building at night but none of the doors work for me

[hexed depot]

Gonna try logging out of this session and joining another see if that fixes it

[gritty oracle]

Has anyone done the Showdown at High Noon project recently? To get the Gunslinger's holster?

[tender wave]

Not recently but was planning on doing it soon with my new character. Is it giving you issues?

[gritty oracle]

Idk if it's my timing or I'm not on the right difficulty or what

I'm seeing some videos saying they had to time it to within 30 minutes of it hitting noon

[tender wave]

so, the final stage where you go to the coffee shop?

yeah, people have figured out timings - eg start from the white house at a specific time, run straight there, it should work

[hexed depot]

Ya there’s gotta be a bug with this cause when I pickup the key it doesn’t show up in the bottom left like every other item

[gritty oracle]

Yea

[kind veldt]

if you stay too close before the time the enemies wont spawn

thats why people sugged staying at white house and the running there

[willow zodiac]

I did it last night. basically go do stuff at then at noon i fast traveled to the classified mission nearby and walked up and they spawned.

[gritty oracle]

What difficulty?

[willow zodiac]

my open world was either on normal or hard last night.

[warm zodiac]

Hey guys. I'm confused even I'm weak player. I saw someone on DZ and he was without name or something above his head. Was something like ghost. What this?

[tiny oar]

there is a gear set that allows you to hide your nameplate

but its on a cooldown

[warm zodiac]

Oh wow. Wish i had it

[tiny oar]

you can drop it in dz or legacy caches

its not a great set tbh

[warm zodiac]

In dz i can't. Alone it's hard

[tiny oar]

you can, it just takes time

[warm zodiac]

Also i made a build but no named and i die one shot

[tiny oar]

you can look for builds in #td2-build-advice pinned message has a spreadsheet to see every build people made and that we know works well

[warm zodiac]

I will try again but no pieces

[tiny oar]

just get a build from the spreadsheet, drop the pieces, then you're set to do lot of content including dz

i suggest striker as its the easiest and one of the strongest

[warm zodiac]

Striker for PvP?

[tiny oar]

you dont aim to do pvp, you just farm npc

and if someone wants to fight, just run

[warm zodiac]

Oh i understand thank you

[noble owl]

Does anyone know a good location to farm vendetta for gun kills?

It has very low chance to mark a target for secondary

[tender wave]

honestly I just skip that objective, too annoying

[brazen yacht]

I swear getting any of those pvp exclusive gears are impossible

No amount of conflict, no amount of dz farming

I have 2 good pieces of yaahl and the game said "thats enough"

[full zinc]

there are no truely dz exclusives. everything can be obtained in pve at this point

[brazen yacht]

I was almost certain that system corruption cannot be obtained through pve

[full zinc]

legacy caches

[tender wave]

occasionally yaahl is sold by the clan vendor, then you just need to stock up on mats by buying a load and dismantling them, then crafting your own

[brazen yacht]

Are those somehow more reliable than dz? How do you get those?

[tiny oar]

also its still pve, with a sprinkle of pvp sometimes

[brazen yacht]

Fair but waiting a week when they have none is horrid

[tiny oar]

wait for TL in dz too

[brazen yacht]

Can DZ target loot the pvp exlusives?

I know you dont mean that but just wondering

[full zinc]

idk, its able to drop in lagacy caches tho. not dz exclusive. you get through ge events and some from the season track

[tiny oar]

its random everyday but yes

[tender wave]

Hmm, everyone says the only way to get Catharsis the first time is from exotic caches, but I just got my first from a priority objective reward. I suspect the true rule is 'not from target loot'.

[brazen yacht]

Oh Legacy Season Cache

[full zinc]

yes

[tiny oar]

also its still good to farm dz for dz ressources to buy stuff at vendor sometimes

[brazen yacht]

Oh wild, so technically theres a chance daily for it to target system corruption?

[tiny oar]

yes

[brazen yacht]

When was the last time that happened, it had to be monumental 😭

[tiny oar]

its random, i dont keep track

[full zinc]

i cleaned out the season rewards of all that stuff and had i think 3 system corruption pieces out of however many caches were on the track (did a claim all recently)

[tiny oar]

but tbh its not hard, every piece you got is already good cause you get the good core, and 1 stat to recalibrate if needed

[full zinc]

no. system corr and yaahl are not able to be targetted by brand/gear set

[tiny oar]

huh

why does it get targeted sometimes then ?

i def farmed some days in dz to get yaarl

with tl

[brazen yacht]

I mean specifically by the random target loot allocation in dz

[full zinc]

it doesnt get targetted.

[brazen yacht]

I know you cant target it in countdown

[brazen yacht]

Oh, yikes

[tiny oar]

wym it doesnt get targeted

i saw that yaarl icon on a dz

[brazen yacht]

See now idk who to believe

[full zinc]

those brands arent even programmed in. you woulda been targetting type or getting a random drop

im sure if im wrong someone else will put me in my place

[tiny oar]

i mean now you're making me doubt

[brazen nexus]

When division 3

[tiny oar]

but i def have a memory of a dz being targeted yaarl back then

[tiny oar]

not anytime soon

[full zinc]

you should, you dont always have really accurate info... lots of assumptions

[brazen nexus]

What we thinkin...2026?

[full zinc]

2050

[tiny oar]

im not assuming here, im talking about memory

[brazen nexus]

Ok, ill be 55. Hopefully i dont have arthritis by then

[grand blade]

Yeeeks! CTD and queue to get back in 🥴

[tiny oar]

bold to assume we'll be alive by then xd

[full zinc]

if it drops early youll be really happy 😎

[brazen nexus]

I thought o wudnt make it past 30...2 months im 31 tho

Wait...did i jus jinx it?

[brazen yacht]

Yeah. Im omw to your location as we speak

[tiny oar]

i didnt think i'd make it past 20

now look at me, 35 and still not doing good

[brazen nexus]

But at least u got shd

[tiny oar]

not that much but y

[brazen nexus]

Imagine living a normal life...without shd levels

Doesnt that sound terrible

[tiny oar]

def is bad

[brazen nexus]

Ngl tho division 3 needs to go back to its roots

The division 1 pvp and dz were so goated

And then i play 2 and its a meme

[tiny oar]

i wouldnt say dz 1 was good

not its pvp

[brazen nexus]

D2 hands down is better pve, but pvp?

Nah not even close

[tiny oar]

just run into 10k stam nomad classified, then tell me its good

[lofty surge]

whoever plays a game like this for pvp is a strange man in my eyes

[full zinc]

d1 pvp >>>> d2 pvp
way way way better

[tiny oar]

i agree its better, but to call it good, thats a strech

[brazen nexus]

I mean the biggest looter shooter is Destiny, and the pvp is arguably larger audience than pve

[tiny oar]

even worse calling it goated

[brazen nexus]

It was hella good wdym, fights didnt end in a heartbeat like div2

[full zinc]

it was good. i remember doing the beta for that and it was just dz... total chaos

[tiny oar]

yeah i remember runnnig for 3h straight in dz while rogue and nobody could kill me

[brazen nexus]

Nomad and striker builds, or pred build felt soo much nicer

[tiny oar]

very much fun

i remember pred build being completely broken

i remember 1.6 everyone being oneshot

with airburst

[unique bramble]

Not to mention being a bullet sponge with classified nomad

[tiny oar]

yeah i said that just before, i used to run in dz forever with that being rogue and bing an annoyance

cant stop me from cutting extraction rope with that build

i cant kill you but you cant kill me and you cant extract either or get out of dz cause you're perma in combat

an absolute garbage way of playing

yet the most effective to destroy any player fun

for all the flawxs of d2 pvp, at least this isnt a thing

[unique bramble]

Yeah, to be honest I prefer killing a bullet sponge guy (a lot of HP) than trying to kill a guy with Regen because like: if you have more HP that's fine, because you just need more damage to kill or be killed. but if you can regenerate a lot of HP like Regen build on the division 2 you don't need to worry about taking cover or stop to heal yourself, and you already know the rest, this lead to people just running around with adrenaline or have like a five star police squad running after him

[tiny oar]

i havent seen a player that could tank 10% of what nomad classified could tank

[bronze lake]

really tho... SHD levels mean nothing. Freaking 10k and 20k+ people who don't know how to even shoot weak points, being carried all around. really tiring. Don't know how to change positions, to flank, to manage thee AI to move around

[tiny oar]

it basically mean playtime

[bronze lake]

exactly. And time doesn't mean experience, altho that's the misconception people have

[unique bramble]

SHD level is just another way of saying: time played

[bronze lake]

Anyway, sorry. Just had to let it out after carrying.

[tiny oar]

i dont mind carrying

i basically use my team as canon fodder to let me shoot npc in peace

[bronze lake]

I do. I want speed. I want people to push and finish fast, not take literally 5 times more to finish it

[tiny oar]

i mean, even in legendary it doesnt take that much time

i spend more time running between rooms than fighting

even with bad teams

[bronze lake]

too little is already too much. But that it's another topic I guess, very subjective

[tiny oar]

tbh, if you expect to have good teams with matchmaking, you can give up

most people dont know how to play or how to build

[latent viper]

2 personne for incursion

[tiny oar]

#lfg-playstation

[latent viper]

Ah it’s canal for my question ?

Sorry 😅

[tiny oar]

np

[zinc bramble]

Judiciary square metro station. There's a door that's locked but has two ladders that go down how do we open that door. There's an artifact down there i can't get to

[tiny oar]

there is usually another way to get there or a key to get or a electric box to shoot to open

[zinc bramble]

I've gone thru every thing there and nothing

[tiny oar]

if there is loot to get, there is a way

did you do the side missions ?

[zinc bramble]

40/40 done

[tiny oar]

then you should be able to

[tender wave]

that one is only available during that specific side mission, or if you can spawn a bounty there. It seems to be last choice for bounty locations though, so you have to group up, and get each player in the group to stand in one of the other bounty locations, before trying to spawn it in

[tiny oar]

or you can join someone that hasnt done that side mission and you can complete it with them

[tender wave]

yes, that'll also work

[zinc bramble]

Ahhh ok ty

[lucid solar]

I’ve been farming so long for a golan bag with haz pro and amour regen

[still hamlet]

bro bighorn farm is pain😔

[kind veldt]

back in my day...

[lucid solar]

Just do summit on legendary

I got it first try

[still hamlet]

have been

[lucid solar]

Ahhh

[still hamlet]

nice

luck aint on my side

[upbeat hare]

any players abole to hop in a vc and help me out with starting this game im feel overwelmed with all the stuff lol?

[lucid solar]

This golan bag is dropping everything but haz pro and amour regen

Bags are the worst to farm

[kind veldt]

dont rush it and just play the campaign as a long tutorial, game is a loot shooter so dont get attached to gear until you reach level 40

[upbeat hare]

i boosted my person to 30 thinkin id just play the campain at a higher lvl

[kind veldt]

otherwise if you want to matchmake there #lfg-pc , if you want to ask questions to learn about the game either over here or at #ask-td2-community is fine

you just skip to expansion

[upbeat hare]

yeah i tought i remebered being able to play everything even after you beat it

[feral mural]

It took me 17 runs before I got the Bighorn

it sucks, but you'll get it eventually

[still hamlet]

fair, yeah only need that one and the raid ars

[kind veldt]

dunno, think that big horn slaps for PVE as well

oh wait you meant the runs

[still hamlet]

Havent tried pvp

like the looks of bighorn n eagle, the stats and dps dont seem bad either

[dire ravine]

you're right yahll has never been targeted loot

[azure lintel]

Hey guys can you get the claw off holster in countdown?

[kind veldt]

Nope, its a DZ item

So DZ, conflict, named caches

[azure lintel]

What about the kingslayer ar

[hybrid ore]

@azure lintel You can check out the full list of locations that particular Named Items drop over in #td2-build-advice > 📌 pinned-message > spreadsheet 2. Scroll over to the right and you'll see either "DZ" for pvp locked, or "lz" for everywhere else.

[small plume]

Just me or this game is kinda tiresome to play now?

Logged in a few days ago trying like "Let's see how this season is", then I saw those coordinates and instantly logged off.

[kind veldt]

i think the scouts are pretty low bar in terms of new content and does feel like padding

but they are so short that they dont feel like a chore so far

get me playing for na hour or two every week at least

[hybrid ore]

There's no downside to just not playing until they're all out, then knocking them out in an hour or so for the Climax Mission unlock.

[small plume]

What's the plot of this season again?

[hybrid ore]

War crimes are cool if you have the same name as ISAC's VA.

No for real, it is still unfolding, but right now there's not a whole lot to go on.

[small plume]

Feels so uninteresting lately, ngl.

[hybrid ore]

Not to get too down on it or anything, but this is what happens when you have to add context after the fact.
It's a setup for the DLC, and likely for div3. If you don't feel like it's worth it, no shame in not playing. You can get the Climax Mission next Season.

[small plume]

I think that what pisses me off the most is to not play past stories in the game.
I remember when I was playing a long time ago, I uninstalled the game during the Bardon manhunt, after a long time I reinstalled and the first thing on my screen was Faye Lau dead cutscene.

[hybrid ore]

If you played WONY at all, you knew that was coming.

[small plume]

I was like "WHAT HAPPENED?", and guess I'll never know the entire context.

[hybrid ore]

NGN put up a "what you missed" video on his channel a while back, good for catching up.

[small plume]

The thing is that I don't wanna watch a video, I wanna play the game.

[hybrid ore]

Then just ignore the context, it's all in service to the loot+shoot anyway.

I bet money that there's going to be enough to go on when the DLC drops.

[small plume]

Idk, to me story is as important as gameplay.

[hybrid ore]

Your 3 choices are: go get the comms from each final Manhunt Mission and listen to them for full context, watch the video on it all, or ignore it.

You'll need about 10 runs of each Manhunt Mission to get them all.

[small plume]

I know these are my options, which goes back to the first thing I said.
What pisses me off is that I cannot play these bits.

[hybrid ore]

Yes you can.

[small plume]

I cannot, I only can play the final mission.

I cannot fight all the NPCs from old manhunts, for example.

[hybrid ore]

Each mission is just a random activity that drops a comm, it's not like there's some unique missions you're missing out on.

[small plume]

Cannot watch old cutscenes, etc.

I didn't even know Lewis was dead.

I discovered that recently.

[hybrid ore]

Eh, warcrimes. He deserved it.

[small plume]

I know you're trying to say this is not really important, what I'm trying to say that it is to me, exclusively to me.

[hybrid ore]

It's not exclusive to you, plenty of people are unhappy about it.
But I very much do not see it changing any time soon, so you may have to get used to it.

[small plume]

This is one of the things that makes me sad and not wanting to play this game anymore, besides everything that is happening lately.

[hybrid ore]

Ignoring that last bit, that is your call whether it's a deal-breaker or not, but it has nothing to do with anyone here.

[small plume]

Idk, I'm just so sad lately, have been unintalling so many games, and those I'm still playing becomes annoying with time.

I'm just thinking too much if I should uninstall this game too.

[hybrid ore]

I think you should take a break from online stuff in general, recharge your mind a little.
It's good for the brain, to be away from the constant bombard of lights and noise every now and then.

I highly recommend either outside if it's an option, or even just reading some kinda chill book.

[lofty surge]

also if you haven't made it to stovepipe yet dont do it. that mission is genuinely a contender for the singular worst mission AAA gaming has ever produced

[small spear]

eh imo it's one of the easier ones to clear

[kind veldt]

best advice i could give is to check in when the last scout drops and kinda binge the whole season/scouts in one week, NOT leave it to the last week

otherwise just take a break and play non live service games, too many of the same type can cause fatigue even if they are not the same literal game

[small plume]

I was playing Warframe tho and I wasn't feeling like this.

I mean, I kinda am now because I focussed too much on working on my builds (they are barely perfect now).

But TD2 got me bored since the last season and those many system changes.

I uninstalled again, tbh.
I'm not sure if I will come back.

Maybe I'm too sad or too old (or both) for this game.

[lofty surge]

you were playing warframe? ouch im sorry you had to go through that

[small plume]

I actually loved playing it, all these recent updates were great.

[hearty lion]

Warframe hasnt been good since they put half the stuff behind paywall

[small plume]

?

[hearty lion]

its a good game dont get me wrong but i had to pay for certain extra campaign missions

[small plume]

What?

[hearty lion]

like this new one? 1877 or some shit?

[small plume]

1999

You don't have to pay to play it.

I literally have no idea of what are you talking about.

[still hamlet]

its mostly quest locked

[hearty lion]

maybe in my country, me and irls were playing it and we had to pay here in AUS

[small plume]

o_ô

[still hamlet]

for what CONTENT

[hearty lion]

so we just uninstalled it and left a review saying " i just punted my infant at a wall, thanks "

just a joke btw

[hearty lion]

1999

then we moved to first descendant but that was absolute hot garbage

[still hamlet]

pretty sure its just quest locked

[hearty lion]

not too sure, but it wasnt much to pay for it, it was like 10$

[still hamlet]

doesnt sound right

most things are time gated

[hybrid ore]

Aus here: Warframe is free.

but this is the div2 channel, so: div2.

[hearty lion]

well i mean, its kinda just general chat, its not really a designated chat

[full zinc]

#td2-general-chat , its a td2 general chat and also under the division 2 category header. so definitely a designated chat

[hearty lion]

i mean, tell that to the other people who talk about other random shit lol

[hybrid ore]

I do, often.

It's like 40% of my job. The other 60% is banning scam bots.

[hearty lion]

ah understandable

[jaunty haven]

does lexington drop from caches?

[low lily]

Nope

Was limited time thingy

[jaunty haven]

dam now im gonna have that 1 blank spot 😐

[low lily]

Will be probably available in future tho

[jaunty haven]

what about first sight

[static pulsar]

I feel you.

Destiny 2 as a beginner in 2025 is kinda overwhelming.
Warframe is kinda too easy?.
First Descendants.. well, Gooner game without much content

Div2 is just perfect imma say as it is

[hearty lion]

just maybe needs another DLC

[jaunty haven]

TFD will probably be fine in a year

[hearty lion]

not maybe, it DOES

[jaunty haven]

but the power creep on TFD is kinda mad

[hearty lion]

it wont be, have you seen the maid skins they have added where you can literally see the ass cheeks because of the panties they put on them?

its a gooner game and nothing more, people just fund it so they can get it off to pixels

[jaunty haven]

buuba and booty sells

[hearty lion]

for all the wrong reasons lol, its why societies dying

everyone would rather getting off to pixels instead of actually feeling a womans touch

[jaunty haven]

this is fine less people means i might be able to buy a house due to oversupply :\

[static pulsar]

Div2 is perfect imho (kinda glazing i know) in terms of difficulty, content, replayability and power creep. The community is very nice and friendly too. Well, the Discord. General Chat ingame is madness

[hearty lion]

yeah maybe in 3 million years you can afford a house

[hearty lion]

no, community isnt nice at all, they think because im a low watch level i cant learn how to do raids lol

[lofty surge]

this discord is nice but the wider community is absolutely brutal to anyone below shd level 100, and still rather unpleasant to anyone below shd level 1000

[hearty lion]

i 1v1d a lvl 1000 shd and they were an absolute piss take of a 1v1

[static pulsar]

I havent fw raids at all yet. Im SHD 62 and playing for 4 days now. I jist cant stop

[jaunty haven]

i mean i could buy one now im just not paying 7% interest on the mortgage so i put the moolah in a 140% return ETF 😐

and stick to my $1400 rental condo

[hearty lion]

oh i meant myself

i didnt realise it put you and not i

[lofty surge]

like the one time you dont get kicked from a countdown and actually get in game you deal more damage than everyone else in the lobby? bro you're shd level 30 thousand what have you been spending your time on

[hearty lion]

its 1500$ where i am for a 1 bedroom apartment on the 12th floor

[hearty lion]

i never get kicked from countdowns, only incursions and raids

[lofty surge]

lucky man

[hearty lion]

i hate grinding countdowns though

i never get what i want bruh

[jaunty haven]

1500 is decent actually

[jaunty haven]

bruh 94 runs and no named classic AK omegalul

[hearty lion]

no its not, on top of that is bills, had to pay 900$ for a water bill and i shower every night before bed as im usually at the beach

its terrible here, its me and my gf living here too btw

[jaunty haven]

i just shower at work lul

[kind veldt]

Im going to sleep

[hearty lion]

we turn everything off at the wall except phone chargers an tv to watch movies at night, still end up with a 1100$ power bill

my government is so money hungry its crazy

[kind veldt]

You can keep this at #off-topic-discussions i would appreciate it

[jaunty haven]

but what if the crows come while u sleep

[hearty lion]

oh my bad i thought it was off topic channel

[jaunty haven]

who will shoot them

[hearty lion]

exactly

[static pulsar]

I got shocked quite a bit when I turned on the General (well, Central Chat) ingame.. Either full of Chinese or Racists and Homophobes, like wtf

[jaunty haven]

never turn on general chat in an online MMOesque

thats how you loose 5 IQ points a second

[static pulsar]

I dont understand a tiny bit of Chinese tho but what I read here and there is brainrot

Terms that I havent heard about in my damn life before

[celest sinew]

Is the server ever going to shut down? lol

[hearty lion]

what?

[sly tundra]

wrong channel.

[sly tundra]

those are fake UI bug

[feral mural]

If you're talking about First Sight, you'll never get it from countdown

it's loot goblin only

I'm not sure where you get Manic from anymore

[static pulsar]

Wdym

[celest sinew]

It shows server shutting down ingame, but someone said its a bug.

[wide briar]

@celest sinew log out and back in and it’ll go away.

[celest sinew]

I did! Thank you ❤️

[worn gyro]

it says i can talk about anything here

[sly tundra]

Fair. But #lfg-pc you'd probably find someone easier there tho.

[worn gyro]

im not looking for group im asking a question

[sly tundra]

anyone got floor 90 checkpoint?
Stand corrected. K

What about floor 90?

[lofty surge]

does floor 90 hold the secrets to the universe?

[worn gyro]

90 has 3 bosses so i can farm exotics

[sly tundra]

Is that the question or stating something?

[tropic sentinel]

I have that checkpoint, what about it?

[worn gyro]

could you take me there rq then you can leave?

[sly tundra]

So you are looking for a group to get the CP....

[plain panther]

looks like it

in the most roundabout way

[tropic sentinel]

I don't have it actually, just wanted to see if the guy above was right.

[spiral acorn]

My game always crashes at Countdown - Signal the extract heli, some other people got any troubles or fixes?

[tropic sentinel]

Does it crash when you reach the heli, or when people are opening final chest?

[spiral acorn]

Final chest

[tropic sentinel]

Then it's old bug they don't care fixing.

[spiral acorn]

Never had it before, now 2 times in a row

[tropic sentinel]

My theory is that it relates to group loot data your game is getting (you don't even need it enabled in the chat). Likely specific items in certain languages cause that error and the crash. Well, at least it tends to happen if there are asian players in the group.

[spiral acorn]

Alrighty, so I have to try again and be lucky :p

thx for the info 🙂

[tropic sentinel]

You could abandon group before it starts if you notice asian names.

Maybe it will help, maybe it won't.

[sly tundra]

To answer this correct.
Floor 10th has 2 bosses and 90th has 3 bosses.
Each boss has a 100% chance of dropping your Targeted Loot.
There actually not better chance of getting Exotic off of these vs CD and also CD for Exotic Cache is good getting most exotics.
Before clearing the floor you can loot everything and either wipe or return to lobby to do it again.

[tropic sentinel]

Heroic summit with much directives has better chances than CD.

[sly tundra]

EH... Targeted Exotic sure but Exotic overall CD is bit quicker than mixing in Priority Objectives.

[worn gyro]

im talking about running floor 90 of summit over and over

[sly tundra]

I just explained that....

[worn gyro]

im farmimg nemesis

[tropic sentinel]

Fyi nemesis won't drop until you craft one via quest.

Your only hope is have someone else drop it if you wanna skip it.

[worn gyro]

and ive done that

[tropic sentinel]

Did you trash it? Why you need other one.

[worn gyro]

i didnt know i needed it so yes its gone

[gray slate]

guys its been 45 hours since i opened the game

[worn gyro]

plus i want to roll a god tier one

[severe moon]

Is there a reason countdown not showing on my map?

[tender wave]

Are you level 40?

[tender wave]

are you aware it's called 'Pentco Fairview Power Plant' on the map and not Countdown?
Have you still got the DZ Recon side missions to do?

[dense mica]

Afternoon Agents

[severe moon]

@tender wave thanks kind of new still figuring this out

[edgy granite]

Can I go back to the start once I start the dlc

[tiny oar]

yes

[gray trout]

I was getting over 600k per pub execs, but now I’m getting half…any idea why? Was there some sort of rested exp I had?

[hybrid gust]

Is there a way to make Black Tusk Activity spawn? out of bounty still have 1 left to complete daily

Rescue/Pubic exe not spawn any BT event

[tiny oar]

its random

[tropic sentinel]

Check around tidal basin.

If activities are slow to spawn, you could mm and check other players maps.

[tender wave]

there was a double xp event this week but only for the first 15 levels

[tender wave]

if you've done the weekly invasion and don't have any spare BT bounties knocking around, try NY, they usually have some activities

[gray trout]

Ah okay that makes sense now haha ty

[iron tide]

what is the trigger for st elmo's engine?

for the electric ammo

[tender wave]

Get enough hits to fill the buff bar, then reload.

It's pretty much unavoidable unless golden bullet is active or something

[opaque ruin]

So because I wasn't playing when it launched---Vindicator dropped with 75% amp, got nerfed to 40% amp, and then got buffed somewhere along the line to 60% amp?

Or was 75% only in the PTS? It's been interesting seeing how varied the opinions are on the weapon when the talent has changed like that.

[iron tide]

thought it might have been crits or headshots

do you have toget a exotic for it to start having a chance of comming in a exotic stash

[kind veldt]

you mean the exotic? it might have been 75% on the PTS but i dont remember being high in there, it got buffed since it was added to the main game

[iron tide]

how do i increase this oh cant do pictures well its on the gun window in the bag screen and it has a 2 printed on a shield and looking at the guns specks it has 2% wpn dmg

[opaque ruin]

Yes. I watched some videos of when it launched and then apparently shortly thereafter it got nerfed to 40% from 75%. It's now at 60%.

[kind veldt]

if you saw in a video then thats probably was the case

well it also got turned into full auto so that also got buffed

[opaque ruin]

Yeah it sounds like they overreacted a bit on the nerf and walked most of it back. Thankfully.

It also apparently didn't work with Perfect Focus on launch, either. It does now.

[tender wave]

still not a popular exotic, forced scope and often targets an enemies legs which is frustrating when they're behind cover

[opaque ruin]

Yeah if you don't like the scope it's a nonstarter.

I don't mind it. With the right build it's hitting close to 3M on those buffed headshots and has a 66m optimal range.

At least breaks up the monotony of Chameleon/Bearer/Elmo's/Lexington with Strikers.

[tender wave]

with the right build I can hit 3m headshots on bighorn scoped mode, with no need to rely on rng (hell, with striker and momentum stacks at full I can hit >3m unscoped hs with bighorn)

[opaque ruin]

Well yeah it's not the strongest option in the game.

Most things aren't.

[edgy granite]

I just hit lvl 40 now I need some advice on how to build with the armour I would like to do one with sniper/m60 or lmgs like that for a build and how dose the watch work I only ever played on Xbox and finished the main story and stopped but this is now on pc and never got in to that side of things on my Xbox

[stiff crow]

hello everyone. That's the question. The blueprints for the checkpoints have ended, but a huge number of items are still closed. Should they be mined in some other way, or are they not there at all as blueprints?

[severe coral]

hello everyone i'm on journey mission 7 and whats the best mission to get momentum tier 5 for 60s now the shooting range as gone

[tender wave]

Not all blueprints are obtainable. Some are locked behind previous seasons, some are locked behind descent, some are just unavailable for everyone.

[tender wave]

Check the spreadsheet pinned in #td2-build-advice - there's a 'Sniper setups' one that's great for snipers, for lmgs I'd suggest the Striker, Negotiator or Ongoing Directive build guides

[tender wave]

Invaded bank headquarters has a section on the catwalks with basically constant spawns for a while, great place for farming journey challenges. Use overdrive to jump straight up to tier 5 at the start and you should be able to maintain it easily

[stiff crow]

some kind of fierce nonsense. Some even have an incomplete set. 😂 1-2 items... in short, a very strange decision from the developers 🤔

[tender wave]

oh, some blueprints are locked behind the raids as well

[severe coral]

thank you

[tender wave]

just remember to wipe yourself before killing the last spawn so you can repeat (assuming lower difficulty than heroic)
Edit: tested this and it doesn't matter, you can kill all spawns and it won't immediately move the checkpoint on to the next area

[tiny oar]

i def understood something else with your sentence

[iron tide]

just done my first solo heroic mission and heroic stronghold non invaded (i have not done H invaded stronghold)

it was super easy barely a inconvenience

i did do it then i had to look at the settings to make sure it was a heroic one next to do it with directives

[tiny oar]

oh really ?

[iron tide]

it prob was the easyist one but still you only get one first

and this global event prob helped a lot

[tender wave]

Nice. Certain builds can make heroic very easy, and yeah the global event gives a pretty huge damage boost if you make use of it effectively

[iron tide]

im using a build from someone i dont remember from 1+ to 1.5 years ago so could have been buffed or nerfed since

using 2 3 and 7 passives with overload

its the only ones i have access to that have any effect for me

[severe coral]

I'm doing it on challenging and just about to go on catwalks now so hopefully i can get it

[iron tide]

i cant work out where im getting ammo regen from

the icon that shows up is a LMG box case

or just ammo case

oh wait maybe its my spec

yeah it was supply line i was in a mission so i could only look at gear so didnot see it

[spare cove]

Gunner Spec has a perk that regens a certain amount of ammo every 60 seconds

[iron tide]

3 legendary apperence items out of 11 boxes and 2 where the same emote and one was a dupe.....

well so 1 item and 2 dupes

where do i see my total time played im on uplay version of the game

i know i could see total played as that one toon but im not on the login screen and i have a few deleted toons and what not

[spare cove]

In the owned games section, click on the game. You can also check your playtime via the main menu when you log ib

[iron tide]

im using gfn right now so cant login to uplay at the same time

would think im over 400hrs under 1000

[still hamlet]

Should tell you on the log-in screen

[iron tide]

you cant see deleted times im sure

and i said im not on the login screen

[still hamlet]

Saying for when you next are

[still hamlet]

Thoughts on the "Time-limited Challenges" rewards via U-play? 100 E-credits seems kinda...dull, How about if it granted certain Materials, which could help a lot more newer players?

[tiny oar]

ngl its such a low reward i forgot thoses existed for few years

[still hamlet]

Exactly

The "challenge" is people wanting to even bother with them.

[spare cove]

Maintenance Tomorrow

[tiny oar]

another week another comms to grind for hawkster

[spare cove]

Yes.

[rough veldt]

Does anyone know if there’s like a certain “best” method for xp farming?

[kind veldt]

there's a couple of pinned posts in #ask-td2-community about how to farm

[rough veldt]

How do you check those pins?

[tiny oar]

click on the pin icon

[rough veldt]

Thank youuu

[iron gust]

Unless you want the cosmetics tied to ubi connect it's not worth it

[magic atlas]

The only cosmetic I remember was the Division 1 shield outfit

what are the others?

[hearty lion]

hey when are servers back up

[molten spire]

they're up now

log out and log in again to connect to a server that's not about to reboot

[hearty lion]

is that for all platforms?

[kind veldt]

i dont think they went down at all

the maintnance is tomorrow, you can check at your local time in #server-status

[azure lintel]

so is the event in 7 weeks going to be actaul zombies , or just respawning enemies

[hearty lion]

wtf

wdym?

[pulsar sundial]

i've got a ~4,5Gb update recent on xbox and the game says services are not available

[azure lintel]

the reanimated event “new enemy tech is causing hostile to reanimate after death, the only way to stop reanimation is to disconnect the brain response with headshots”

[tender wave]

not actual zombies, enemies just get up once for another go at you, but with reduced health

[stuck wasp]

What in the world is going on

Wake up and game says must download update to play

4.38 gbs of something

And now I can’t play keep getting Alfa 02 code

[wise raft]

Same

[pulsar sundial]

same for me too

[stuck wasp]

Ugh

[turbid geode]

Mine is still doin the same thing too

[void iron]

What's this new update

[stuck wasp]

Not supposed to happen until tomorrow morning I thought

[turbid geode]

No idea, can't get on still

[void iron]

I just went to take shower and came back now there's a update so it's just been added recently

[turbid geode]

Earlier I was getting DELTA codes, after it said I needed an update (not sure why that would be) now I can't even log on. Goes right to an ALFA code now

[void iron]

Oh ye it's down

[stuck wasp]

Well Atleast I am not the only one

My buddies are all on playing though

[pulsar sundial]

version 1.0.509.6056 after the update on xbox

[turbid geode]

I'm on east coast and this morning earlier I could only login to a European server with a poor connection

[void iron]

Maybe because they haven't done the update

[stuck wasp]

Probably but than they shouldn’t tell us we can’t play without updating the game

[void iron]

Ye I know it's silly because I was playing like 20 mins ago did update now can't get on was trying to finish my mule of

[stuck wasp]

Wonder if this discussion should be in trouble shooting

[void iron]

I'm off to check the server status see whats going on

[turbid geode]

I sent ubisoft stuff this morning earlier but I think we all know how that'll go

[stuck wasp]

Not that it would matter don’t think devs are in here to help fix it

Ugh

[turbid geode]

and same here Ghost, my buddy is on playing right now. He lives 40 minutes away from me but I can't even log in. It's crazy

[void iron]

There's a server maintenance if you look in server status should be back in about 1 hour

[pulsar sundial]

it says that its gonna be tomorrow at 9:30 CET

[void iron]

Ye must of come early no idea

[pulsar sundial]

maybe microsoft pushed out early

[sudden laurel]

I thought I was the only one having this problem with the division

Good thing i came here

[void iron]

No I'm getting alfa 02 code

[azure lintel]

i think the issue is the servers are up but they arent updated, because u can play if you dont do the upft, so i think they needa shutdown servers and add whatever the updt added

wich im assuming is the new global event stuff

[cold shoal]

I'm getting this as well. The game automatically updated while I was at work.

[rapid prawn]

Which platform are you guys on? I have no issue here on PC/Uplay

[cold shoal]

Xbox

[void iron]

I wish I didn't do the update now hopefully it's back up soon

[cold shoal]

I wish I could roll it back lol. Damn those automatic updates

[rapid prawn]

Anyone on PS5 having the issue? Might be an Xbox-only issue but like Parzibeez said, it's likely the client update happened on Xbox and server-side is still on the previous build, so causing a mismatch

[void iron]

Ye same lol

[cold shoal]

I probably needed a little break lol. I've been grinding mules. It's like a second job lol

[void iron]

Well I just got on a hour ago and got this mule to 38 just want to get it finished and yes it's a choir without someone helping you but I needed the materials

[cold shoal]

For sure. I've gone through so many mats in the last couple of days lol.

[stuck wasp]

Yeah well I be get to do that honey do list

[glad stirrup]

[static pulsar]

PC

[errant otter]

is anyone unable to get on the game?

[static pulsar]

Xbox people have issues currently

[errant otter]

has division said anything on the matter?

[static pulsar]

idk might have to google it

[pastel escarp]

Division 2 on XBox is inaccessible with "Alfa-02" error after a forced 4.38GB update. No issues with any other XB games/services reported or encountered. No word from the team - no info on Trello about the update.

[latent igloo]

Xbox here, having the the alfa-02 error after updated, is any way to fix or no

[low quartz]

Anyone getting Alfa 02

damn

OH LOL Maverick its you

[low quartz]

What about PlayStation

[static pulsar]

Seems fine

thank god im on PC, console are experiencing so many L's these years...

[wooden sentinel]

I hate we have to wait for this manhunt missions

[spare cove]

We're 5 weeks away. You'll be fine

[crude gull]

Guess who tried to login on their Xbox and just found out they're doing maintenance? 🙄

[bright swift]

Is that what it is? I keep getting Alfa-02 error

[blazing spear]

Same here

That’s alright, I mean…it’s a really great sign after hearing about the ten cent deal that the division 2 update broke the game on consoles. Huge win for Ubisoft

[static pulsar]

It has nothing to do with Tencent

[blazing spear]

I know

[static pulsar]

Tencent bought 3 IPs from Ubisoft, thats it. Games arenr affected yet

[blazing spear]

Great sign of things to come, the quality shall whon knows

My point is that already div2 was affected. I’m trolling you and conflating it, but it’s a valid point and concern. It’s not going to help your player count that’s for sure

[static pulsar]

Unless Tencent decided to buy out Ubisoft and hires more people

unless

[hybrid ore]

Okay enough doomtalk. It's a server hiccup, not the apocalypse.
this is far from the first time we've had server issues.

[kind veldt]

less conspiracy theory

[thorn rune]

there is a second update restart you console for the update that's what i did and I'm on playing with not issues

[paper kelp]

On PC, just noticed the server is restarting in just over 40 minutes.
Can't find a social media post about it though. 🤔

[hybrid ore]

It's a visual bug, dw.

The actual restart is later on today (tomorrow depending on your timezone)
#server-status message

[inner elbow]

It's the server playing eternal April Fool's with you

Aaaand it's April Fool's. Time to get pranking

[tiny oar]

gcrock server changed its icon

lmao

[inner elbow]

I don't think that's motivated by April 1st

[paper kelp]

Personally, not a fan of April 1st. 🙁

[tiny oar]

never understood whats funny about it tbh

but sometimes they change gameplay for that moment, can be fun sometimes

[still hamlet]

Server restart on the 1st, We log-in as wildlife

[gilded schooner]

is division2 servers down?

[still hamlet]

Shouldn't be

[gilded schooner]

getting ALFA-02 error

[static pulsar]

First Xbox and now PC lol

Devs clearly took April Fool's serious

[tiny oar]

aprils fool : division 3 is out

[severe moon]

is it hard to matchmake countdown on PC?

[tiny oar]

div 2 is dead, long live div 3

[tiny oar]

no, its pretty fast

[severe moon]

damn wonder what I doing wrong then

[tiny oar]

do you matchmake on challenging ?

[severe moon]

its been 5 minutes nothing

yeah its on challenging

[tiny oar]

weird

might be the servers acting up i guess

tonight it seems like lot of people have trouble playing

i did had trouble matchmaking too now that i think about it

[severe moon]

guess i'll try again later

thanks bro

going on 7 minutes now lol

[thorn rune]

If you are on Xbox try a console restart I found a second update that kicked when a restarted my xbox.

[real creek]

Can't wait for exos to drop all over for April fools.

[tiny oar]

lmao imagine if they did that

or that we could drop raid exclusive

or that every drop was godroll

[lofty surge]

every exotic is godrolled eagle bearer (real)

[tiny oar]

slight caveat, its only in dz

[simple forge]

I joined a legendary today and there was a guy using elmos and shield/decoy, dude must have had 50 million armor and half of it was bonus, and he was shredding elites like they were reds

Dude was clearly solo'ing it for fun and just had matchmaking open for the hell of it

i want that

[tiny oar]

you can check his gear and copy it

[lofty surge]

reveal the gear steve. i want to know how to be like them

i just use the striker build so my shield lasts approximately 3 nanoseconds on legendary

[simple forge]

Oh this was way earlier, it just crossed my mind again, I should have checked his gear. Bleh.

[tiny oar]

if you didnt matchmake too much, he should still be on your "previously played with" tab

[simple forge]

He's not :( I just checked. Sad.

[tiny oar]

but that sound just like a normal dps build with prob memento

or matador

or maybe a new secret build nobody knows about

[lofty surge]

i really gotta get memento i see everyone talking about it all the time

is it just targeted loot or do i gotta do some weird stuff

[tiny oar]

just tl countdown and you should get it after a while

[simple forge]

I did targeted in countdown and bought exotic caches with the points

[severe moon]

weird question how do I equipt the banshee pulse i dont see it anywhere

[tiny oar]

its a pulse variant, you need to see all the pulse variants

[severe moon]

ahhhh thanks broski

[tiny oar]

idk who's broski but np

[modern delta]

I believe it is limited to a Specialization though. I think Gunner so if you don't have the right Special weapon selected then you can't choose Banshee (may be it is Firewall).

[tiny oar]

yes you need to use gunner spec to equipe banshee pulse

[pine olive]

Anyone mind running some side missions with me lvl 11?

[severe moon]

does anyone know where journey rewards are to claim been trying to figure it out for days?

i think matchmake is down at the moment can seem to do it anywhere

[lofty surge]

pause menu > burdens of truth seasonal menu > journeys tab

[severe moon]

thanks brandy

[worn gyro]

dont talk to my wife like that!

[severe moon]

me?

[worn gyro]

yes you

[severe moon]

wtf are you talking about dude relax i just said thank you I didn't even know she was married

[worn gyro]

good boy !

i hope you know im trolling you i dont know that person

[severe moon]

I dont know wtf going on with anyone their are soy boys who act that way online lol

[worn gyro]

this is true and its super cringe

[full zinc]

As long as you catch the name you can always /inspect epic-player-name-here in the text box. Use snipping tool next time to grab the name

[full zinc]

It was super cringe ...
Knock it off 👴

[sonic lintel]

Whats a good sniper/tech build?

New to game and really enjoying it

[lofty surge]

you should probably go to #td2-build-advice but the 4pc hotshot chainkiller build with determined is THE sniper build

[ruby tangle]

wthh is this Mission😭

Pentco Fairview, I died at the last minute of the mission, it sent me back all the way from the start

[rotund drift]

Intro to countdown mode basically, you can still get the exotic doing it on normal

[ruby tangle]

;-; that's mad crazy,

[rotund drift]

Its a bit annoying at first if you dont have a dmg build but once you have a decent build and have a general gist of what to do, you can blow through it

Albeit the exotic isn’t really that good imo

[ruby tangle]

I wasn't going after the exotic, I just saw it say Main Mission so i went for it

[rotund drift]

Its technically a manhunt mission but even if you complete it the icon will still be there

[ruby tangle]

Ohh okay, thanks for info

[azure lintel]

whats the best way to get myself a solid exotic, me and my brother hopped on after we switched to xbox and we had to strat again, but we need exotics, hes going for a tank build im goign for skill/ overcharge

[real moth]

Countdown is pretty much the best way to farm for anything that's in your loot pool

For anything else, you gotta look into the required projects/content

[azure lintel]

ahh i see

we have been looking back at all the seasons we missed and there were sure some nice outfits

im most wounded i missed the carmine mask

and the recruiter set

[rotund drift]

they will likely return in the shop in the future since the menpo set is in there

[eager mango]

There is someone from Europe playing right now. Because there is some kind of failure on the European server. The game cannot be launched. I would be grateful for information. I get the UNIFORM-01 error. And I have a working internet connection.

[rapid prawn]

They will probably be in the store again, pretty sure the recruiter outfit has been in the store 3 times

[hybrid ore]

Recruiter rotates back into the store every now and then.

@eager mango What's your platform?

[eager mango]

Xbox Series X

[hybrid ore]

Ta.

[azure lintel]

open it from your games menu, like wher eu manage ur games

happned to me but im in now

[azure lintel]

my games and app place

[rotund drift]

countdown would be your best bet, since the coins can buy you exotic caches, but 3 projects also give you exotic caches every week. theres also priority objectives which can give you exotics

[azure lintel]

for countdown 1, what is a nemesis and 2, does teh currency increase as you get further?

[rotund drift]

thats descent, not countdown

[azure lintel]

ooo countdown is thhe pwoerpalnt?

powerplant*

[rotund drift]

yeah, but its not the general anderson one

your best bet is to matchmake for countdown on challenging

[eager mango]

Not working

[rotund drift]

more than likely a divison server issue, not xbox server. I'd say (unfortunately) to just wait

[eager mango]

I have the impression that I have already downloaded the update that I should have only after the downtime. I may already have the wrong version of the game. But how on earth did I already download it and that's where the problems started

@hybrid ore

[rapid prawn]

That's descent but yes, the NSA currency will increase for every loop you complete. But loops get harder the higher you go. Nemesis is basically a fancy rogue agent boss that mirrors your skill selections etc. for the descent run. But the AI for the nemesis feels like fighting a rogue agent or hunter.

[azure lintel]

ahh thankyou

[eager mango]

help is no longer needed. the update that I downloaded two hours ago simply did not download. because when I went into my games and add-ons I noticed that there was an update available that did not download again. I am just curious why when it downloaded once, and in fact it was not

[rotund drift]

likely an xbox issue. when i was on xbox i had a similar issue with a different game

[azure lintel]

where do i spend countdown requsitions if htey are even spendable

[rotund drift]

if you face the event vendor, look left and you will see a laptop by its lonesome

[azure lintel]

[thorn zodiac]

Anyone trying to help me finish my kenly college . I’m trying to finish it so I can get the rifle

[bright sun]

I don’t know if I’m remembering this wrong but I swear the stinger hunter set used to be available for textiles not just the premium currency

[kind veldt]

Stinger the yellow one?

It used to be be from friend refferal only i think

The OG black hunter outfit was in regular caches

[warped tangle]

Will we be getting another Lexington event anytime? I’ve been playing division 2 since launch and missed out on it since I haven’t played for a few months

[tidal cosmos]

Is division 2 still an active game?

[elfin hazel]

they've said they're lookin to do more drops in the future

[elfin hazel]

yes

[tidal cosmos]

How long does it take to matchmake for story missisons?

[lofty surge]

probably pretty long, theres no reason to co-op those with randoms they are trivial to do solo

[rapid prawn]

It definitely was at some point, that's 100% how I got it. I never would've paid premium currency for it. It was friend referral for a long time then was textiles for sure after it was added to the store.

[hybrid ore]

@rapid prawn It used to be part of the Friend Referral System, as part of the "help out new players" reward.

[rapid prawn]

Yeah I never did the friend referral program

It was definitely textiles when it was first added to the store, might've been limited time only I guess

Looks like around November 2022 it was available with textiles, looking at some reddit posts and youtube videos

[empty hawk]

Anyone free to help me get nemsis sniper plz i been trying forever i have blueprint but missing 1 part n been weeks to get it i keep missing out.

[lofty surge]

if you h ave the blueprint already you can just run countdowns with marksman rifles targeted and it will drop eventually

[empty hawk]

i been doing tht but tht only one tht drop is one tht sets ppl on fire

[hybrid ore]

Just to confirm, you have indeed completed the Project for Nemesis, yeah?

[empty hawk]

if u mean me yes all but the barrel or sum thing

[hybrid ore]

That would be a no, but as long as you have the Blueprint from Puck at the Invaded Grand Washington Hotel (you need to actually have gotten the guaranteed drop from them once you have 2 other parts), then yeah you can TL (targeted loot) farm the Nemesis.

If you don't have the BP: TL farming will not work.

[empty hawk]

i hav bp

[hybrid ore]

Did you get the rest of the parts this week?

[empty hawk]

tht i was able to yes

says i need 1 more

[hybrid ore]

Which part do you need?

[empty hawk]

barrel

[hybrid ore]

Ah, Capitol Hill. (or Manning Zoo, of course). GL with that one.

[empty hawk]

zoo?

is tht invaded now?

[rotund drift]

the nemesis parts a 100% drop rate so long as you do the missions in orde

[lofty surge]

the nemesis does seem less likely to drop than the mantis or sanctum in my anecdotal experience but it will drop if you just keep going

[hybrid ore]

It's entirely random.

[rotund drift]

it wont drop if you havent built it first

[hybrid ore]

Not true: it'll still drop as long as you have the BP.

@empty hawk Manning Zoo Invaded drops one random part on your first run of the week, that you need, that is not the Blueprint.
So in your case, it would be the Barrel.

[lofty surge]

you got that man just run it on normal difficulty and you'll breeze through it

[empty hawk]

any time i run it or do it need to be invaded bc im run tht rn if not

[hybrid ore]

The Nemesis parts only EVER drop on Invaded mode.
