[rugged copper]

What should be donated to level up faster then?

And, my equipments arent all maxed out, what would you suggest me to so? Deconstructing and using materials to first max them or donate all to increase expertise level?

[tender wave]

for guns you can farm them in countdown and donate, for named items prob best to buy from vendors and donate
For gearsets & brandsets it takes a lot more donations, so you might be better off just wearing the stuff and gaining proficiency through use.
Still, better to donate them than to scrap and donate the mats, that will take a lot longer.

[honest roost]

Insert "to you".gif

[rugged copper]

A control point at heroic says will give 361260 xp, does it includes the directive bonus too? ( I have 75% + for directives)

[gritty palm]

still cant use premium credits to buy a shirt GG

[dry gate]

how so? I bought a crap load of things with credits

[gritty palm]

it keeps giving me an error 😦 after I hold space to purchase it says "ERROR: Apparel Store failed to process the requestt,, please try again later." 😦

[dry gate]

wild.. must be something with servers that are closer to you

if you really want to try buying it.. if you have VPN try to set it to a different region from you and then log into the game.. then try.. I et you it will go through

[gritty palm]

yeah true 😦 I want this permafrost jaccket

[dry gate]

if you login to different store server and game server it might work for you

[gritty palm]

fasho I will look into that!

[rigid nymph]

I won't be even able to do the project tomorrow anyways

[civic ridge]

just did a stronghold to unlock a passive modifier. then it says unlocked cull the weak (last season) and now none of the new ones are unlocked. wut?

[azure lintel]

other than the rogue and operator set are tehere any othe runlockable free outfits

[feral mural]

Rogue?

[tender wave]

Priority objectives shouldn't have any passive modifier rewards this season, they're all gained from the season journey. Perhaps you had it activated from last season and never ran the stronghold until now?

[civic ridge]

Ah could be. I've been away from Div2 for a bit till now ty

[lilac plaza]

I wish they would just add outfits to the store permanently, not any of this FOMO stuff... barely just missed the Black Tusk Redeemed outfit when I came back from my hiatus

[azure lintel]

the on e from conflict

[sage nest]

Sorry for the way I play the game but I join you when you ask for back up you can give me my shd endorsement or whatever it's called and not just back out and blah nothing I did most of the work etc be a adult and do the right thing.

[dry gate]

hey guys how do I get hyena box keys?

[humble cargo]

easiest way is go in the sewers and find the key boxes on the wall but the keys are random to the faction.

also Hyena bounties I think.

[dry gate]

that's the yellow markings on the ground to go into the sewers right?

[humble cargo]

yea

the boxes are on the wall, white but got the orange outline.

[dry gate]

yeah I've seen them.. thought they were just loot like normal loot boxes

well servers went down.. is server restart notice, a temporary downtime?

[tender wave]

just a local server thing, not the game as a whole - it might log you out, it might just let you keep on playing

[dry gate]

nm.. I'm back in.. it was just a restart

[kind veldt]

now i'm in a easter mood

[severe moon]

Is it better to stack Crit Chance or CD when I’m a very low shade level (65)?

[kind veldt]

hit crit chance around 50-55% and the rest on CD

reaching those numbers is mostly using certain brands and attachments to cover it

[severe moon]

For Striker Ceska Chest or Fenris?

[humble cargo]

Ceska if low on chc.

[severe moon]

Ok thanks

[dry gate]

2 quick questions. I'm guessing Dark Zone keys are used somewhere in Dark Zone.. are these like small loot boxes like hyena keys? what are the kind of rewards I would find with these keys?

Second one is about special ammo I find in the world or missions.. as I level up more is there an ability to equip this ammo permanently on the gun or it's always random find during activities?

[kind veldt]

special ammo drops are static from boxes, those boxes are always on the same place everytime

you cant have permanent special ammo but some talents, weapons and gear sets play around the concept

[dry gate]

roger that.. clear enough.

[kind veldt]

OD gear set is a good example, st elmo exotic is another that gives you special ammo

[dry gate]

okay.. so the ammo is sprinkled out at fixed locations and in activities so you can count on some boost of DPS with them. But only some exotic items might have beneficial special ammo.. I think I got it

[kind veldt]

the game loading tip mentions each one, since they have different effect, but most are kinda obvious

[dry gate]

yeah I saw.. electric, fire etc

[kind veldt]

explosive is extra damage and cause bleeding, hollow points do the same thing, eletric causes shock, fire cause burn, i think the odd one is high speed bullets that just make enemy stagger mor easily

[small spear]

tldr don't rely on them being there, your power comes from elsewhere

[dry gate]

roger

sorry one last question.. I just want to make sure i'm not missing out on things. When I open some loot boxes I see a red icon and a circle.. is this just a marker I got a bigger batch of mats/resources or similar or I have to do something to claim it .. cause they don't dissapear

[kind veldt]

you can post screenshots on #ask-td2-community , cause honestly i dont understand what exactly you are talking about

[dry gate]

posted and tagged you so you can see

btw thanks everyone who is kind enough to put up with noobs and answering questions.. it's nice to have more experienced players help us save time and understand

[feral mural]

Any new player is a blessing for a game like division

[feral mural]

Take a picture of it in #ask-td2-community and we'll have a look

Oh the nuts and bolts!

yeah those are just components, that means you're full and can't hold any more of that resource

[dry gate]

I'm still blown away how deep this game really is.. so many activities, so many things to do.. the world feels lived in.. I'm blown away.. I can see why people still play it .. it's a living world really..

[feral mural]

It's a pretty good game

[dry gate]

indeed.. and I'm very picky about these games.. I'm older so I don't have a lot of time so I pick one game to play and since everything sucked recently I gave it a go.. and now I'm kicking myself for not playing it sooner.. but I think it's maybe better experience now all at once I guess

let me ask this.. when the game was at it's peak.. were there more people in the world roaming around etc.. I see people here and there but I'm guessing there were a lot more people in the world/city as it was very popular?

or they limit the number of players in your instance?

[feral mural]

the general map is restricted to you and your party

you can matchmake for open world play and missions, etc.

[dry gate]

aaahh

[feral mural]

you'll see a lot more people in safe houses and the white House because it's an open area

I'm not an OG though, I only really started playing around November?

[dry gate]

yeah totally makes sense.. that's why I see people in safe houses but not necessarily open world

unless I see a call for assistance on the map

[winter pelican]

Can anybody link me some resources that I can use to make my build? Like where to get which drops and stuff like that?

Used to play 2-ish years ago. But dont remember much xD

[molten spire]

#td2-build-advice, pinned post, The Spreadsheet 2

[sly tartan]

no more fake exotics

insert image of man breaking his chains

[limber narwhal]

hey guy, relatively new player here, ive just got myslef some foundry bulwark gear and the talents say it increases makeshift repairs.. what is makeshift repairs?

[tender wave]

if you scroll down the item description, it tells you

[limber narwhal]

it says the requirement is makeshift repairs but i dont know what that is

[limber narwhal]

ignore me

found it

[toxic flume]

Is there an Easter event weapon from loot goblin?

[toxic flume]

Free exo components tho

[tender wave]

apparently they're dropping previous event items again, new item won't drop until we hit day 7 of the projects

[toxic flume]

I see

[ruby tundra]

What exotics cant you get from the season pass priority objectives?

[tender wave]

Basically the same pool as exotic caches - everything except stuff that is locked behind specific content or requires a crafting blueprint you haven't earned yet

[tardy karma]

I'm really hoping the helmet/bunny ears come back around. Having only 12 hours to complete that task (with a majority of that time being spent asleep because I live in Australia) was impossible. Only got up to 45/100 (though to be fair, I wasn't trying to farm it as I didn't realise it was a daily task until I had to leave for work)

[wide briar]

@tardy karma you should be able to finish it next time you log on.

[formal epoch]

if anyone is having trouble getting the eggs i found a easy way to get them

keep shooting the ammo belt on a black tusk tank everytime he repairs it

[pure peak]

Strange how they have done it as a project and not like a seasonal thing.
Would of made it easier for people to get the other items if they miss a day or something

[shrewd hill]

Oh man, this apparel event is way too short 😦

[runic kernel]

more eggs

[round oar]

Gather eggs again, for boots this time

[molten spire]

hey, at least these eggs be free

[rapid prawn]

Projects timers must be bugged I guess, the image released for the event timeline straight up says the rewards are for day 1, day 2, day 3 etc. so an 8hr timer makes no sense.

[fierce kraken]

So, when do we become "more powerful" with these modifiers? These black listed NPCs have 200k armor regen. Their turrets do as well.

[rapid prawn]

Each tier of momentum gives a buff. Movement speed, weapon damage, rate of fire etc. Generally speaking, it's not super impactful until you get some of the passive modifiers like critical momentum or overdrive active modifier to boost instantly to tier 5 momentum. Either that or your build is super weak and low damage.

[fierce kraken]

NPC instant full armor kit needs ti be removed from the gsme!!!!

[rapid prawn]

Why? you have armour kits. You can throw a grenade or use a number of skills to interrupt their armour kit

[inner elbow]

Also it's not like they do it an infinite number of times

[boreal ingot]

wait does world tier does not matter for xp?

[inner elbow]

There are no world tiers anymore

[timber geyser]

Fast traveled reset my eggs, bug??

[rapid prawn]

Might've reset 22 min ago when the next project for the boots showed up. Seems like the timers are messed up. Even now it says "new project in 7hrs 38min"

[keen osprey]

They shouldn't reset(?) I was under the assumption that they stack

At this rate if weve to collect 100 eggs per day then 700 enemy weak points is no mean feat for the average player.

[rapid prawn]

I only see the new one for the boots with a 23hr 36min timer. But then it says "new projects in 7hr36min" at the top left

[timber geyser]

Cool, so I'll wait until it's fixed. No going to collect 90 eggs again it just reset.

[rapid prawn]

Yeah no idea what's going on really. But the helmet for day 1 definitely ended too early it looks like.

[keen osprey]

I completed day one so I see day two.

Have any of you not completed day 1 but are seeing the day 2 boots one instead?

[rapid prawn]

@timber geyser maybe?? ^^

[keen osprey]

The valentines and Christmas events were stacked projects and i assumed these would be the same

I've just checked my second character that I had 3 of 100 eggs for and it still says the same with it showing the project for the mask

[rapid prawn]

Good to know 👍

[full zinc]

anything important going on?

[molten spire]

we have now entered the ProZD egg skit dimension

[keen osprey]

Egg hunting is very important work

[full zinc]

oic, so basically nah, we good type shit .. perfect, off to collect some exo components

[shrewd hill]

Anyone got problems with eggs not counting when you pick thenm up?

[shell dagger]

jfc with mask for coyote is sure taking it's sweet time

[kind veldt]

Day 2 project?

[rapid prawn]

No issues here, finished day 1 project earlier and just finished day 2 project for the boots

[kind veldt]

First day project didnt have any issues

Will try doing day 2 and check of it has any issues

[humble cargo]

so the 75 eggs I had are there?

I still see the mask but the 75 eggs I had an hour ago are gone.

wow, screw this.

they did reset.

[honest haven]

Yeah I was at like 90/100 eggs and then it reset on me too

[kind veldt]

i joined some random people in another server and didnt lose any eggs when leaving

[formal epoch]

the project reset so the eggs you had while doing it reset too

[sly tartan]

oh hey i got the lady death exotic weapon
seems like a good weapon

[severe moon]

question if Im going for angel hunter mask and he kills me do I have to do all the steps all over again?

[rapid prawn]

@humble cargo @honest haven I saw someone on reddit saying switching builds reset their progress. Haven't tested myself though. I just did one mission and a control point and easily got 100 eggs, but if you want to be quick, just find a black tusk or hyena heavy and break their ammo belt over and over again. You will get 1 egg per break. A bit boring but ~10 minutes of that and you'll have 100

[elfin verge]

Yep

[severe moon]

jesus

so I have to get all the eyes again thats dumb

[rapid prawn]

Always set your world to normal when doing the hunter puzzles. Not worth risking it on harder difficulties due to all the effort to even spawn them.

[elfin verge]

It's the same with all of them, they're supposed to be tough

[rapid prawn]

The steps to spawn the WONY ones are even worse if I remember correctly.

[feral mural]

The NY ones are horrifically complicated

[soft basin]

will the lexington ever be back or was it a "get it or its gone forever" situation

[humble cargo]

I might have to do that.

ty for the thought on that.

[azure lintel]

my easter egg hunt reset on me ☹️

[gritty pagoda]

it resets on everyone

I gave up

[kind veldt]

devs said they will add it again, we dont know when

[soft basin]

ah ok, good to know it'll be back at some point ig I just gotta pay attention to the socials this time round

[round oar]

Reset or just part two? Part two for me was another 100 eggs for the boots

Another 6 hours and change until part 3 unlocks for me

[kind veldt]

some people are claiming it was reseting in the same part

so far it has been stable for me despite uplay crashing

[south knot]

The Easter Event is definitely glitched/bugged. Ubisoft creates more problems every day…. I had 88 of those eff’n eggs , changed build and I’m back to zero. Screw Ubisoft. That Rabbit helmet was an idiotic looking piece anyway.

[humble cargo]

Mine did this on the ears.

[kind veldt]

did you change loudouts?

[sturdy jay]

atleast you didnt have 99 eggs before the reset...-

i died inside after the events unfolded

[kind veldt]

well was able to complete without reseting

so not sure if it was timed thing or something else like people are suggesting of switching builds

[limpid pond]

Server Restart ? on the day it just cycled out? Legit?

[wide briar]

@limpid pond log out and back in it will disappear

[limpid pond]

ahh, so yet another false alarm

[kind veldt]

All real maintnances appear on #server-status

[limpid pond]

well, im confused then, because it literally just kicked me and is offline

but 330 AM on April 8th is come and gone

[azure lintel]

So like are the weird names exotics different or just funny for April fools like the Beagle Barer because if they are gone after a bit all the grinding was for nothing and I might as well just deconstruct them

[limpid pond]

its a joke, it literally says it in the item description

all you get is a exotic component

cannot be equipped

[azure lintel]

what difficulty do people normally run in the summit?

[azure lintel]

I feel like a actual idiot because I got a few weird named one and collected them and was confused where it is

[lunar hare]

who runs summit?
whatever you want basically: hotshot, strikers...

[limpid pond]

nah, dont dumb yourself down, some of the names were amusing, im just not big on april fools anymore. ( too old for that stuff )

[azure lintel]

Im just trying to find a group for farming exotics, isnt summit good for that?

[limpid pond]

i still run it from time to time just for the rewards

[kind veldt]

it's used by people who prefer solo farming and generally one specific item

[azure lintel]

No one’s to old for anything in my opinion but thanks man

[limpid pond]

Countdown is the preferred loot mode now

[lunar hare]

Countdown has a much "bigger chance" to get exotics

[azure lintel]

Oh wow, is there alot of public groups that run it?

[kind veldt]

servers restarting can either be a false positive or actual restart, a restar doesnt mean hours of downtime

yeah, just slap challenging and you will find people in no time for countdown

[azure lintel]

rgr thanks

[kind veldt]

anyhow servers restarting just means that, going offline then back up again, so it might kick you off but it wont stop you form rejoining

[azure lintel]

actually one more question, I am freshly level 40, do you think i can run challenging countdown without annoying other players

[vital fiber]

I showed them love and they showed man hate, these days, that is expected (real)

[kind veldt]

probably, since it's how people gera up for builds, just avoid running some skills

cause hunters will hack them depending on what you use

[shrewd bone]

100 eggs for the event cosmetics is pretty steep, 1 hours and i got 9 eggs so far.

[limpid pond]

do you not know how to hit weak points?

[round oar]

Break weak points to make eggs drop, demolisher Firefly works a treat

[limpid pond]

grenade pouches, drug bags, drone backpacks etc etc?

and yeah, demolisher does wonders with that

[formal epoch]

go after the black tusk heavy gunners and keep shooting their ammo belt

[limpid pond]

^ ^ thats another one

just sit there and keep breaking his belt

or the LMG guy for Tru Sons

[novel fog]

I guess I have a bugged mission after I died part way through. How do I restart it?

[round oar]

Isn't there a pulse variant that shows weak points? It's been a while since I've used the others apart from banshee

[jagged prism]

don't recall a pulse that'd show weakpoints unless you're referring to the i forget it's name but it comes from one of the legacy manhunts but when you hit it, you do headshot damage

[jagged prism]

https://thedivision.fandom.com/wiki/Pulse/Tom_Clancy's_The_Division_2#Achilles_Pulse

[round oar]

Yeah that's probably the one I'm thinking of

[shrewd bone]

what is weak point? the head?

[jagged prism]

you know those guys that throws molotov cocktails and they usually have a red pouch that rests on their right thigh?

[shrewd bone]

think i'll just exit game and skip this event. only level 22.

[jagged prism]

for 14 days?

[limpid pond]

do the eggs work in groups?

i think they do, i just came out of a group and we were popping em like crazy

[jagged prism]

if so it'd work off. if all people in the group hit the enemy at least once

[full zinc]

hot take, but we need all tactical assessments, alloys, and weaves added to the scavenging points menu. (optimization mats)

[jagged prism]

yes, that would be nice

[full zinc]

at least let us use a slider, or minimum craft 50 each at a time

1st world problems

[jagged prism]

bulk crafting? yeah that'd be awesome. especially let us bulk open our apparel caches too 😢

[full zinc]

yeah, bulk crafting. i would be thrilled if you could craft the amount of opt mats equal to 1 full incriment at a time

doubt something like that gets implimented though. its a pretty solid limiter to maxing stuff out. who wants to sit there and craft 200 weaves

[shrewd bone]

nah it means idc about the event anymore, and a casual player that plays solo, level 22. and spending 10 hours trying to hit bags doesn't sound fun. event is dogwater.

[limpid pond]

or, and hear me out, ask nicely and some of us, know exactly what we are doing and you can have it done in 45 minuites tops. just sit back and do literally nothing

i just got the shoes done in 20 minutes

[shrewd bone]

a gaming community on a shooter game being nice? what is this?? don't believe such a thing exists.

[limpid pond]

clearly you havent been here long enough then, 😉 This isnt COD or BF

[shrewd bone]

have to chop off your hand, sell your soul, join a discord, and give up your SSN just to join a clan that's alive in this game.

[limpid pond]

sure about that?

[shrewd bone]

yeah, i looked for days. eventually just made my own

after every clan declined me, guess level 15's aren't special

[full zinc]

there are plenty of open noninvite clans

mine stays full... i turn over afk after 50 days

[limpid pond]

^ ^ ^ plus the content groups

Skillz, Rogue Gold, Kamakazie, GC Rock

places with hundreds of Div 2 players

[full zinc]

wip, tenacious as well, afaik both are active popular communities

but tbh, you done need a clan for other than a vendor. you can cultivate a huge network pretty easily

[neon wyvern]

if not for clan vendor I would be clanless

[full zinc]

not surprising

[kind veldt]

I just kinda became the clan leader after friend bailes out

[full zinc]

same here, except it was a random open join thing.

it got plopped onto me since i was active. took a minute to slowly flip the inactive agents but after about 2mo it was cracking

[azure lintel]

thanks for the advice

[south topaz]

someone posted pathway park method for egg in reddit and its really the fastest took like 5 min to get 100 egg, now i can do this everyday xD

[ruby tundra]

Just got the overlord shotgun on summit normal

pre crazy

[hybrid ore]

That's the trick with difficulty: you have a higher chance on higher difficulties from bosses and such, but you can get Exotics even on Normal.
It's a good system.

(although generally speaking: our advice is to play on Challenging or higher, as that limits enemies loot pool to gold/gearset/exotics)

[torn birch]

What’s with bc all the server resets never had this many in the past

[hybrid ore]

It's a visual bug.

[sour trail]

Do you happen to have a link if you’re allowed to post it? The time limit seems short and won’t have much time each day to grind it! Need a quick way 😁

[hybrid ore]

You can post reddit links, as long as it's not your own account.
Just be prepared for mocking if it's wrong.

[jagged prism]

other server someone mentioned the Theo Parnell NYC mission Pathway Park i believe?

probably the old xp farm method. run in with EMP pulse and pulse all the decoys. run around and collect the eggs, then die and repeat

to think i misread the division-tweets about tenacity but i saw Tencent podcast was like what?! then relooked and was oh tenacity that survival one. need to catch up on that one, saw this new one is about communications

[hybrid ore]

Pathway Park is Kajika (the giant drill), Theo is the one with the decoys at the end (The Tombs).

[jagged prism]

ah tombs thank ya

hmmm, thinking of cooler. what if handbasket is we egg our agents for some odd buff? 🤔

[inner elbow]

Eggcellent idea

But terrible eggsecution

[jagged prism]

think someone else speculate the breadbasket talent on it. would be intersting a handbasket with perfect bread basket talent?

[inner elbow]

My eggs left me 😔

They should have added a parody version called the Leggsington

[south topaz]

just go to pathway park story - throw demolisher firefly to 5 enemies - kill u*** with explosive emp - u spawn at same place - rinse repeat 10 times - collect 50 eggs at one go

[jagged prism]

i know someone mentioned either in this server or other. can just wait until the last day of the week for the event and just blast through them in 1 session

[sterile mist]

is div2 crossplay between xbox and pc?

[lunar hare]

no

[remote pecan]

probably the traps?
I just did it like this #ask-td2-community message

[south topaz]

#td2-general-chat message

[wheat zinc]

Do y’all know the weekly invaded missions this week? Not at home currently.

[dark wolf]

Does the Easter event leave today? Seen the project n it only had 15 hours left…

[remote pecan]

ahh I see ty, probably missed that somehow, but I can't be bothered to travel to NY, equip firefly etc.

[remote pecan]

a&s, space admin, jefferson plaza iirc

[tender wave]

There's a new daily project every day this week, if you miss one you can catch up later, they'll still be available all of next week too

[timber geyser]

Has the eggs resetting been fixed?

[dry gate]

holy crap SIG rifle slaps!

[torpid garden]

Who’s stupid idea was it to change the seasonal modifier button to down so it opens the keyboard, how do you make it up again

[real moth]

Up was even more dumb, it activated everytime you looked at loot.

[inner elbow]

I wanna say something but I also don't wanna say it

[torpid garden]

That’s better than opening keyboard they should change it back

[real moth]

They should just make it so it activates on long press rather than short press lol. There isn't a button that isn't bound yet

[torpid garden]

Yeah that would work too, pretty annoying shooting something then the keyboard pops over the whole screen lol

[nova socket]

can someone increase my rng for ninjabike plz thx <3

[swift temple]

Sure, done. Fixed it

[spare cove]

What's today Easter Project? More collecting eggs?

[tender wave]

Apparently so, another 100

[prime atlas]

Can yesterday egg project be completed today? Or is 1 day chance for each cosmetic?

[tender wave]

@prime atlas ^

[prime atlas]

Any info on fix for egg resetting? Had this problem yesterday

[soft basin]

whens the 3rd easter project dropping

[tender wave]

Nope. Only mention I've seen of this suggested it was due to changing loadouts, but I've seen barely anyone report it so far.

[tender wave]

With tomorrow's daily reset

[grand blade]

Actually, these types of events don't reset along with the daily reset. They reset earlier 🙂

[grand blade]

In 12 hours and 20 minutes 😉

[tender wave]

That would be far too obvious!

[soft basin]

alright

[wheat zinc]

Just saw it. Thanks.

[hazy snow]

What’s the difference between a system gear mod and a protocol gear mod with crafting

[timber hatch]

Its a hold over from the gear 1.0 system, theres literally no difference now

[autumn vapor]

Not sure if this is meant to be in the raid discussion channel or not so i do apologise I was just wondering what the division community as a whole is like to players that want to do a raid but need teaching or help as I am completely new to that area of the game

[molten spire]

Most raid runs open to first timers are held on the GCRock Discord server, unfortunately I can't directly link to it but an invite link to it is present on almost all of his videos

[iron gust]

As long as you're clear you're new to raids and don't start doing things you're not told to do you'll be fine

[potent chasm]

Devs cooked with the Easter outfit

[spare cove]

Aggressive nod of agreement

[swift osprey]

the division 2 invite friends doesn't work. i invited 2 people with epic games, they played division like more 2 hours for my referral program but i didn't get the rewards and my status invite still 0 friends -_-

[broken solstice]

dont you have to play together with the person you invited for a couple missions or something too?

[jagged prism]

yeah, think someone mentioned that. i looked at the FAQ and doesn't really state it, but maybe it was one of those "would be obvious" with the hours in there

[broken solstice]

yeah i had read the post too quick though anf OP was just offering for someone to join him in the dz, kill them and take the loot

[jagged prism]

oh i know, it's just the way my brain works. i would totally tell my friends if i had any that played Div 2 still. be like hey i'm going to discord and offer this to people, wanna farm them? (> <)

[broken solstice]

lol yup

especially if its has great rolls. inevitably no one is around to take you up on that offer when stuff like that happens

[swift osprey]

do i have to play with them in the game? cuz i diddnt find same information into refferal page

[broken solstice]

yeah thats what i had to do. maybe they changed it tho, its been a long time

[jagged prism]

believe that's what people mentioned about it but i don't remember doing that with my main account

[swift osprey]

yes, they changed and the reward different. But maybe it's just a hidden condition If i still didnt get the rewards huh

[somber hedge]

so Turmoil kneepads were only claimable last week....? can i get them through Countdown?

[grand blade]

They seem to have been a one-time-only kinda thing. Sadly. I really wanted one more copy 🫤

[somber hedge]

damn, i wasnt able to play last week, and they seem pretty good and all so was hoping theres maybe another way

[fair lake]

Wait a second, every day we get the same "collect 100 eggs" project?

[somber hedge]

like... atleast put them in the loot pool or something

[grand blade]

Appears so 😳

[fair lake]

💀

[grand blade]

They never do with this kind of loot. They are only there as long as the event is active.

For a while, the lootgoblin was bugged, and all previous event drops were on his loot list. But they fixed it 😢

[somber wraith]

bah i was dced mid challenging countdown...

[humble cargo]

is Chainkiller on any of the vendors?

[autumn vapor]

Is it better to use striker 4 piece or electrique 3 piece for smg

[kind veldt]

striker 4 piece i would say

[young mantle]

THE EGGS IN DIVISION 2 WENT FROM 81 TO 0 😭

[kind veldt]

did you swich builds midway?

[humble cargo]

I did it the cheese way. the shield gearset, full tank setup, invaded something? the chunga in the front. endless belt breaking for 10 minutes.

what we do...

[grand blade]

I do it the same way 😅

Luckily, I always collect plenty of bounties. So I just find a Black Tusk or Hyena bounty that has a heavy gunner as a target 😋

[humble cargo]

yea, its such crap we have to do that but oh well

75 eggs gone bc of a garbage reset on the timer, I just stopped caring.

[kind veldt]

well some people are restarting at random

not sure if its some server issue, or some action that is causing the reset

still trying to figure it out what happened

[humble cargo]

I didn't do a set swap, always running around in Strikers.

and the whole thing on a Normal world map to make it easy with the firefly demo.

but oh well

[jagged prism]

nods i keep meaning to tell people about doing this for the jouney stuff too just so they can fly right through it

[humble cargo]

yea, most don't realize you don't need to do stuff on heroic world. I put it to normal and 4/5 modifiers.

no ammo is fun with a Harvest.

[fervent cobalt]

Had a dream they buffed the exodus gloves to have 70% AR damage too and it made them super meta.... but also in my dream btsu gloves were red core.

[azure lintel]

when you woke up did you have that Foam launcher stuff all over you?

[jagged prism]

maybe they woke up with deadpool laying next to them saying don't mind my mind

[azure lintel]

Now that's an apparel store item I can get behind

[jagged prism]

deadpool outfit? would be awesome
maybe even if they can pull it off. change isaac to sound like him and constantly talk XD

[azure lintel]

I mean every other franchise is doing the Marvel and DC thing, why not Division 2 right?

[runic kernel]

The Division has advanced tech so Keener and Theo are actually robots its fake flesh from the neck down

[azure lintel]

So what you saying is that The Division knew about AI before it was even a Thing? Freaky🙀

[jagged prism]

🤔 don't recall if div 1 had a year in their cut scene at somepoint

[dry gate]

hey guys.. what is The Decent?

[kind veldt]

roguelike game mode

start at lv 0 with few choice of random weapons and skills, go clearing rooms for money and getting a talent

[molten spire]

The ISAC computer voice is an AI from back when the conception of it was "Automation" rather than "compensate for my total inability to write and especially draw"

[kind veldt]

rewards are based on far you progressed/killed the nemesis boss which is just a very strong rogue agent

[dry gate]

is this worth playing at level 28 or should I do it later?

also what is the best way to farm e-credits?

[jagged prism]

selling your junked gear/weapons/mods
once you hit 40 and get at least 5 levels into the SHD you can use a point to get some ecredits
but i do believe you get some per mission/control point take over?

[humble cargo]

bounties for a quick fix.

[vital aspen]

What’s the easiest/fastest way to extent tactical supremacy by headshots? I have a good headshot build.

[eager void]

Ahh thank you!!

[jagged prism]

i'd say drop to normal run around hit heads

[vital aspen]

Any recommendations for a mission or else?

[jagged prism]

do a mission if you like, run around an area and terrorize the npcs

[tender wave]

Leave it till lvl 40, the rewards get much more worthwhile.

[humble cargo]

opening of Capitol.

long views.

or get a pistol and ballistic shield.

[upbeat sky]

can somoane report a bug on federal bunker mision to the end the remaining aoutcast enemi dont show enymore i try 3 times the same problem

[kind veldt]

can you find them if you use the pulse?

[upbeat sky]

i try but nothing i also play in team end the same problem i dont know why

i gest try again with pulse end no treat detected

[vital aspen]

Thanks. Anything I can do to extend the duration? I seems to drop off quickly. I make 12 consecutive headshot-kills but only 3 are counted in the Journey objective..
I use Hotshot with Determined

[jagged prism]

it does state you can only get upto 25 seconds

[vital aspen]

Ah that would be the issue then. What an annoying task…

[jagged prism]

considering you can't cheese it in the targeting range anymore XD

[vital aspen]

Yeah, missed that opportunity..

[lime lagoon]

Is it just me or is the easter event really annoying

[fathom stream]

I’m redownloading division 2, would it be too late to start?

[lime lagoon]

Nah it's a good time to start

[jagged prism]

i was hoping. 100 eggs day 1, day 2 kill x with y

[fathom stream]

Sweet I thought was cooked since it’s been a while since I’ve played lol

[lime lagoon]

I don't get on till late my time leaving me an hour to get 100 eggs and couldn't do it and jt basically requires you to change entire playstyles each day

[jagged prism]

i haven't changed my playstyle, from my understanding someone said you can wait until the last day for this one monday and do them all in 1 session

[lime lagoon]

I think it's just me being the niche of sniper player

[vital aspen]

How to do those eggs?

[lime lagoon]

First challenge is destroy weakpoints

The best to do that on is cleaners

[vital aspen]

Is it just projects?

[lime lagoon]

Yes

[jagged prism]

daily projects goes until monday, then after server reset the count gets reset and we go at it again for another 7 days 😹

guess, what?
in 5 hours you go hunting for another 100 eggs XD

[shrewd bone]

i'm cooking right now, but can anyone help me in like 20-30 minutes get the easter eggs? i'm a level 22 peasant

[dry gate]

yay finally hit 30!! there's so much overwhelming stuff now unlocked 🙂

[lime lagoon]

Ooh cool so i got 3 hours

[shrewd bone]

i'm on pc, na

[dry gate]

am I trying to reach 40 now? and just playing projects and unlocking the rest of the map, side missions etc?

I'm guessing campaign is still not done and then I get into DLC territory to get to 40 right?

[lime lagoon]

That reminds me do you think we'll get level 50 with battle of brooklyn

[coral charm]

no

[lunar hare]

Not quite, everyone's builds would become absolutely useless and we'll probably get mad after all the hard work.

[lime lagoon]

Probs

[lunar hare]

maybe not probably but certainly sure it'll happen.

[coral charm]

exactly

[grand blade]

I think they already said no to this in the last live stream (but don't quote me on that).

[spare cove]

And we know what happened when another looter shooter decided to make gear useless at a certain progression level until they backpedaled from that

[lime lagoon]

Haha Destiny?

[shrewd bone]

nah destiny completely reworked the gear system, leaving the gear the same amount of time to grind, while adding a RNG based system on the gear giving the gear attributes, killing off peoples whole arsenal of weapons. so destiny 2 didn't do anything based on progression level, it was a system rework

[spare cove]

I was mainly talking about weapon/gear sunsetting back in its Year 4 early months

[lime lagoon]

Anyway time to play a sniper only shooting at Fuel tanks of cleaners soon

[shrewd bone]

i mained destiny 2 till they did the gear rework, then uninstalled 2 days later.

[opaque ruin]

Ah yes. Sunsetting.

[rugged copper]

Where do I get Hyenas Tactical Assessment? Other than bounties 🙂

[proven cape]

Is the strega still good?

First exotic for me

[opaque ruin]

You can get tactical assessment from optimization caches, but you can also get the blueprint for each and craft it.

And yes, Strega is good. Very strong at max stacks.

[proven cape]

What gear set should I be running for it? I'm literally farming the coyotes mask but can't get it to drop

[rugged copper]

Explain the crafting thing please

[hexed depot]

Another week another no keener outfit

I’m starving out here for the drip

[opaque ruin]

If you do heroic CPs you're going to get blueprints from the completion. There's a chance you'll get a Hyenas Tactical Assessment blueprint. You can then craft them at the crafting station.

I rushed through like 150 or so CPs over a few weeks when I started so I could get all the blueprints from them. Now I can craft Field Recon/SHD mats, weapon and gear alloys, and tac assessments. Much easier to optimize now.

[hearty flume]

How long EAC anticheat was removed from game?

[azure lintel]

hi

i am from pakistan

[humble cargo]

its not, its still there. new version recently.

[shrewd bone]

last night "just ask and people will help you get the easter eggs, community on this game different and helpful" i'm calling bs on that statement

[kind veldt]

For matchmaking you can try the #lfg-pc

[shrewd bone]

time to play some hover. a better experience

i'll pass on that buddy. it's a waste of time.

[azure lintel]

need a famer

gamer

[tiny oar]

g@m3r

thats us

[kind veldt]

I can give you the same advice of going to #lfg-pc if you are also talking about matchmaking

[hearty flume]

Its not, at least in Steam version, even game launch with arguments -disable_eos https://steamdb.info/app/2221490/config/

[humble cargo]

if you are on Windows, launch Ubisoft Connect as administrator.

[shrewd bone]

i asked, but i bet the 42 cents in my name, no one will help.

[humble cargo]

also, its shows easy anticheat on the page you linked?

[shrewd bone]

the community on here to busy flexing their progression level, gear/ loadouts, and knowledge on the game.

[humble cargo]

or just sit on a chunga or dog and break their stuff, when its repaired break it again. 100x. done.

[hearty flume]

Its said on page, but its not in real conditions, I'm just check task manager also, there nothing with EAC when game launched

[humble cargo]

ok then steam doesn't launch it.

works fine for me. I see the launch in the eac logs.

[kind veldt]

Thats quite surprising considering game usually closes it when EAC doesnt work or has an issue

[humble cargo]

run Steam as administrator on Windows. See if that helps.

also possible Steam DRM is kicking in as enough to make it work, idk.

[kind veldt]

Well EAC is not great, causes lot of issues on my PC most of the time

[humble cargo]

Ubisoft has a Discord, might check there.

[humble cargo]

that it does.

[finite cradle]

Playing Division 2 to the sound of Ennio Morricone’s theme for the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, the game just hits different. Lmao

[kind veldt]

God i miss the old dodge city holster

[severe moon]

This dudes who keep booting me out of Countdown are pissing me off. Because my shade level is low? I saw a guy yesterday shade 3 forget about hunters and run right into VIP and mess the whole run up

[odd grotto]

Vakus, you are a goat

[humble cargo]

they are checking for setups or looking for a carry. wait a minute, make your own group or join another. don't do heroic, just do challenging. Sweaty people are always going to be sweaty, sorry

[round oar]

I found a sweaty run on challenging yesterday, some people are really weird

[sterile cedar]

What build are you using?

[humble cargo]

if you got nothing but do have access to Gunner spec and riot foam either craft eclipse protocol or some good all yellow core stuff and do cc. a single person in countdown doing cc makes the extraction dumb easy

[dim roost]

How to invite players in countdown.

If only I’m the leader then I can invite or i can join someone random & invite friends.

[humble cargo]

correct.

[dim roost]

I was in a group of 4 already & i started countdown. And my friends didn’t got added to that countdown & it was not giving me the option to invite as well

[humble cargo]

there is a start and start as a group option but they are on different places, I think.

[dim roost]

Their is create group option, but that doesn’t allow me to add random players. I can only add players from my friend list or clan.

If i select join, then i get inside a random players team, but invite friend doesnt shows up

[humble cargo]

ok then sorry and yea, its crap.

[gilded pagoda]

whats the deal with broken armor bug ? is that being worked on or what ?

[grand blade]

Considering it has been broken for at least a year, as far as I know, then it isn't likely.

Or at least it has a VERY low priority.

[gilded pagoda]

well its never getting fixed then..they probabbly have no idea how to fix it

[grand blade]

Very likely so. Sadly.

And considering they have had, what, over a month to fix the special ammo and scavenged skills mess, I am wondering if they won't fix that either.

[vital aspen]

Got all 100 eggs. Can I just start over again??

[kind veldt]

Check if theres another project to do

[vital aspen]

Yeah, new project…

Again weak points?

[formal epoch]

yep

in 2 hours 35 mins a new one starts

[vital aspen]

So I have to hurry?

[iron gust]

No, it's the next project but will unlock when you've completed today's project

[molten spire]

if you haven't started I would just recommend waiting for the reset in case it wipes your progress again

[formal epoch]

if anything do an invaded mission find a black tusk heavy gunner and shoot his ammo belt over and over til its complete

[vital aspen]

It takes me 10 min to get those 100

[ripe jolt]

Anyone know where the snitch location is for today?!?

[vital aspen]

HW with Demolisher. Stranded tanker part with the tanks

[lunar hare]

False, Snitch spawns randomly for everyone. You might force him to spawn at one spot.

[lunar hare]

He spawns randomly, check out localdeck's advice → #ask-td2-community message

[novel fog]

How do you get them so fast?

[grand blade]

You need to find one of the heavy gunners (chain-fed weapon), either Black Tusk or Hyenas. And then you just keep breaking the ammo belt without killing them.

[humble cargo]

another way - demo firefly, story mode on the start of parkway. hit them, nuke yourself, repeat.

[grand blade]

You can for example try and check your available bounties and see if one of them has a heavy gunner as a target

[grand blade]

Or that 😂

Personally, I like to incorporate it in my daily missions.

Which is why bounties often are really helpful

[kind viper]

what is an efficient way to finish the Summit challenges? I'm up to the status effect one and I'm just using a gun with pyro on it and my drone to cause Blind.

should I farm for an Eclipset Gear set build and then do it that way?

[fringe crow]

Guys.. im not in game rn.. can any1 tell me how much talents we have on chest pieces atm?

Just numbers, how much we have atm?

Or how many*

[azure lintel]

Isn't it just one talent on chest pieces?

[fringe crow]

Yes, was this! Tysm

[clever mauve]

anyone wanna help me get to level 40 plz ?

[timber geyser]

’’’’’what mission was this?

[inner elbow]

air and space museum

[fiery beacon]

is there a south african whatsapp group ??

[lunar hare]

not here

[humble cargo]

level 32 watch agent i'm leveling randomly, do anna objective, get Pesti w/ maxed dttoc. this just got easier.

[inner elbow]

Pesti cheese lets gooo

[humble cargo]

lol my god. the dot at this level lol

[runic kernel]

eggs? always has been.

[timber geyser]

eggs reset with timer, just watched it.

[kind viper]

what are some named items I should be looking out for when farming the Loot Goblin?

[timber geyser]

so when the timer ended early at the start yesterday, that's what most likely messed with the eggs.

[tender warren]

I just went from 97 eggs to 0 eggs for the boots…. And my timer said I still had 1hour to go…. wtf man?

[lone shuttle]

https://youtu.be/kA4xHjAql0A

Hey ya'll, first time posting my yt vid here

Can ya'll rate my gameplay ? I wanna see how it is in everyone's perspective

I basically ran a Heartbreaker Set (Backpack, glove, kneepad and holster), Everyday Carrier and Coyote Mask, Flatline Lexington and a Scorpio with Technician Specialization

Sorry if the vid quality is a bit crap

[tender warren]

The timer said nothing about “resetting” eggs you already collected. Only that the “next item” would become available after 8 hours, and then the items would begin to stack up.

And someone needs to fix this Black Tusk invasion bug BS every time you reopen the map….

[steady merlin]

where is the snitch?

[tender warren]

Can’t tell you, that would be snitching….

[kind veldt]

Its random, he has a couple of spawnpoints

[steady merlin]

oh its differet for every person?

[kind veldt]

Generally game puts him close to where you logged in

[steady merlin]

i thought itd be like that one dude from destiny

[kind veldt]

Ita different for each person

[tender warren]

You can almost always find him behind the 2story house across the street from Navy Hill control point.

And across the courtyard from Jefferson Trade center mission entrance.

[steady merlin]

okay ty

[west aspen]

Can anyone confirm if Acosta’s knee pads can drop in the open world or Countdown? I’ve been farming Countdown a lot with target loot ( kneepads ) but haven’t had any luck so far.

[steady merlin]

I found the vender but he uses some currency I dont have, how do i get it and what is it called?

[inner elbow]

Which vendor?

[steady merlin]

Idk what his name is but the one u get from finding the snitch

[inner elbow]

He accepts textiles

Which you get from opening apparel caches. Duplicate item get converted into textiles

[steady merlin]

ah okay, where do I see apparel caches bc I feel like I have some but idk where to open them from

[inner elbow]

Escape > Store

[steady merlin]

ty 🙏

[inner elbow]

I think, if not, it's Inventory, first tab

[novel fog]

Is it weird to have level 30 and 40 items drop when you are level 15?

[lunar hare]

🐛

[steady merlin]

is it possible to reroll mods on exotic weapons or no?

I saw something in crafting but idk if thats just for the attributes

[formal epoch]

when you get an exotic you get a re-roll blueprint for the weapon or gear piece

[steady merlin]

that includes attachments?

[formal epoch]

no those are perm attachments

[steady merlin]

ah okay ty

[formal epoch]

np

[south knot]

He goes by Herman.

[keen osprey]

Do not tell me it's another 100 eggs for day 3?

[formal epoch]

yep

its gonna be that way for the whole event

its easy getting the eggs

[keen osprey]

What the fk do they put in that Swedish drinking water

[keen osprey]

Oh I know I do pathway with a demolisher, it's besides the point though. Tedious for anyone tht doesn't know how to cheese it

[formal epoch]

its such an easy event

[steady merlin]

where can I find primary objectives

[keen osprey]

And it's not group friendly either.

[formal epoch]

its in the burden of truth tab

[south knot]

How the eff’n hell are we suppose to collect 100 eggs if the glitch keeps setting us back to zero? I give up. No more. Listen up DEVS: Fix the Egg Bug

[steady merlin]

ty

[keen osprey]

I've personally managed to finish them before the timer ran out but it's definitely going to be an issue for anyone tht doesn't have the time to play and is just knocking out a few at a time. I don't think they took into consideration the difficulty behind this for the different levels of experience, understanding and time people have allocated to gaming.

[south knot]

It’s 100 eggs for each and every item.

[keen osprey]

600 eggs is yikes

Essentially 600 weakpoints or kills. Ludicrous effort for mediocre vanity

[south knot]

It’s idiotic. I would never wear that crap. Never.

[formal epoch]

🤣

[keen osprey]

I'd stick to the toy soldier outfit if I were you. This new one is sooooo over the top

/s btw

[south knot]

BTW, where does it say there’s a timer? It’s not mentioned in the description.

[formal epoch]

timer for what

[south knot]

Ask Dazza.

[keen osprey]

As far as I'm aware there's no end timer for them. They're meant to stack until 8am EU on the 22nd

The timer you see is for when the next project rolls in

[formal epoch]

look at the bottom of the project thats how long there is til the next one opens

its the same with the weekly projects having a timer til its ready again

[keen osprey]

I have just checked the known issues board. They're aware that the egg count resets on new project release. No mention of an eta

[formal epoch]

its prob gonna be a bit til thats solved

[south knot]

Well, you’d think there’s a timer going all the time…..88 eggs one minute and then there are zero.

[keen osprey]

They struggle with being able to apply server side patches but I'd expect they'd be able to do something about tht without a client update. By Tuesday all 6 projects will be out so unless they continue to reset I wouldn't expect a fix

[formal epoch]

im already done with todays easter project

[kind veldt]

i'm stressed out

means it's time to use a shotgun build to obliterate NPCs

[steady merlin]

I know playing on higher difficulities increase chances of exotics but is it necessary? Could I still get them if I play on normal or hard

[south knot]

Like I said, I don’t need there trashy, idiotic outfits. What I need is new CP’s, Missions and Bounties. Running this same tired sh*t for six years is getting old. Think about it. They call it “scout” now but it’s still the same old manhunt we’ve been running since year one.

[kind veldt]

you probably wont get that until the next expansion

[lunar hare]

Pretty rare. You're better off doing Challenging Countdown.

[keen osprey]

The drop chance is lower but it can still happen. Make sure to also do priority objectives if you're looking for exotic gear

[kind veldt]

you can get perfect god rolls by just playing normal and a great exotic by just killing a random red enemy on normal, it's just a matter of luck

difficulty is just a way to tilt the scales, playing how you want at your own comfort is the right way to play

[keen osprey]

Luck? Never heard of it

[dry gate]

what would be the reason to make a new agent? there are loadouts right? do people make alternate agents?

[keen osprey]

Additional builds
Some players separate their build types or uses per agent. Primary, Raid builds, PVP, Mule or hard-core.

[dry gate]

is this common? seems like a lot of specialization grind on a new agent just to ahve a separate build to switch to.

[keen osprey]

For me I have a primary agent that I have most time on, the second character has 14 builds I experiment with, 3rd is mule filled with gear I want to keep, since the stash increase I could use it to add more builds to. 4th is hard-core.

A majority of tbe player base tend to stick to one character at most.

If you have a decent shd level people tend to run through level 30 to 40 then claim the shd watch to use their shd points to buy materials via the scavenging segment.

[dry gate]

so there's hardcore as well?

like you die it's kaput.. like diablo 4 for example

[keen osprey]

Pretty much, it's risky and there's little reward to the system to be honest but #td2-hardcore-mode-chat chat may disagree.

You eventually get a YOLO hat for creating a hard-core agent and completing the first mission reaching the white house. After that there's some commendations. No gear is shared between hard core and normal agents

[dry gate]

yeah that figures.. I play quite a bit of HC on Diablo 4 so I'm one of those people who likes hardcore modes.. but there has to be some kind of incentive as well.. but I understand the appeal.. the game will definitely feel completely different when you know you can perma-die

[keen osprey]

The biggest frustration is death via disconnect or game crashing to be honest

[dry gate]

it would have been nice they went the Path of Exile route in Div 2 for hardcore.. if you die it swap to a SC agent.

I mean your character that died becomes a softcore agent version instead of losing it forever

i'll eventually try hardcore I'm sure in Div 2.. I just started the game basically

[keen osprey]

Yep, that way you don't lose any progression. The issue is that the mode was introduced as a result of player request but it hasn't received any love since it's inception over 5 years ago. There's a dedicated player base for hard-core and I'd like to have some sort of reward system that benefits both hard core and normal agent but I guess I'm reaching.

They did say that if time allows they'd like to revise it in future, wouldn't hold ones breath to be honest

[keen osprey]

Welcome!

[dry gate]

at this point, I was so surprised how much I enjoy Div 2 and how great of a game it is.. I would rather them have this DLC out soon and continue working on Div 3. They should not make the same mistake Bungie did with Destiny

[keen osprey]

If I could provide any advice at all it would be to not speed run the story and enjoy the progress. Level 40 endgame is vast but I'd do anything to be able to experience the game over for the first time again, especially now with all the additional story related content at end game.

[dry gate]

I just hit 30.. 33 actually.. so I'm just enjoying the game, the city, the missions.. I'm not rushing it.. I'm totally immersed in this world

[keen osprey]

They'll learn from their mistakes just like massive have with division 2

[dry gate]

they really have a great IP with Division.. but the key is every few years you just have to release some major refresh like a new release.. otherwise you get what we've witnessed with Destiny.. I'm happy I heard they are doing Div 3.

[keen osprey]

I assume you purchased the Warlords expansion?

[dry gate]

I got the ultimate edition with everything

this approach not only makes more money as a whole, it also gives players a rallying point of refresh to fall in love all over again with the game.. it's the way to keep the IP going for a loong time

[keen osprey]

Gotcha, well I'd assume you know there's another expansion coming by the end of 2025

[dry gate]

I heard Battle of Brooklyn

it will be smaller than Warlords but that's fine

[keen osprey]

So between now and Division 3 there's atleast a confirmed year 7 plus the expansion. Lots to look forward, regardless of how you look at things

[dry gate]

I will say.. the game feels A LOT better than Destiny content wise.. even for 7 year old game.. so much content, the city feels alive and active, always some secrets and missions.. the time of day change and replaying even same sections and missions gives it always a fresh feel.. they did good for sure

and I haven't even started the end game and all these other things.. I'm still doing side missions, strongholds and opening up the map

it's very rare that game makes me feel like a bad ass agent in the middle of this Escape from New York vibe

[keen osprey]

You have global events, modifiers, additional mission variants from past seasons, countdown, descent, the summit, incursion, raids, legendary difficulty, seasonal events etc all to look forward to. It's quite alot to throw at a new player to be honest

[dry gate]

it's totally fine.. all the games suck now so I'm super happy I started Div 2.. so much fun to be had

[keen osprey]

Did you play the first one?

[dry gate]

no.. I was contemplating if I should start with Div 1.. but everyone told me.. you won't miss much storywise.. just play Div 2.. it's more polished, fresher and up to date and people still play it

I remember when Div 1 came out.. I remember massive problems at the start.. so I never got into it.. Div 2 was definitely a good choice

[keen osprey]

Well since you're a sucker for immersion like me I'd recommend it even if you just play through the story. The end game there is time consuming, fun for sure but even if you get the feel of the snowy city it's worth it for that alone.

[dry gate]

yah maybe at some point.. I'm sucked into Div 2 now 🙂 I think Battle for Brooklyn will have snow and stuff too

I saw some screenshots

[full zinc]

the scale of the city in div 1 was definitely better. you really felt small in comparison

its worth downloading just to run through survival

[dry gate]

I hear that.. but to be honest iwth you.. I think Div 2 size of the city is just right.. I was just thinking about that today.. if it was bigger it would be kind of a drag to walk everywhere

even with fast travel

I will play Div 1 at some point just for the story

[full zinc]

i meant the way it feels when actually standing in the city irl compared to the game environment

[dry gate]

ah gotcha

so let me ask this.. when you play these modes like Countdown .. it says up to 8 players.. is this just done via matchmaking?

like the game matchmakes you with 7 other players?

[full zinc]

yes

it forms a separate lobby, like a raid lobby

party lead manually starts the match when group fills

[dry gate]

do you usually have to talk or no? I hate wearing a headset unless i'm with buddies or something. Not really against it.. just wonder if it's common for people just not to talk for these matchmade events

[full zinc]

all matchmade chooses random party lead, or you can goto chopper to create your own and be party lead automatically

no need to comms

[keen osprey]

Most people recommend it for survival, which is fun but yeah if you don't want to commit time to it then the story can be done in 15 ish hours

[full zinc]

everyone basically knows what to do. follow, shoot what they shoot, dont use deployable skills

[dry gate]

hm.. interesting.. why not use deployable skills?

what does that mean?

[full zinc]

they get hacked. deployable like hive, turret, drone

[dry gate]

how about seeker mines? that's what I like using? that's not deployable yah?

[full zinc]

shields, revive/artificer hive, sticky bomb, chem launchers, traps, decoy all safe to use

seekers are deployable, same with firefly

[dry gate]

interesting.. this is good to know

[full zinc]

think about it, if it has some way of targetting, it can be turned against your team by hunters

[dry gate]

so if I go into matchmade activities switch seeker for chem launcher? and keep the reviver on

well I haven't played any of those activities that's why I ask.. I'm barely 33

so I'm still exploring the world

[full zinc]

yeah, pulses are safe as well, so gunner pulse/jammer both pretty good

[dry gate]

roger.. someone told me that pulse can set enemies on fire this season?

due to modifier or something

[full zinc]

regular puls, gunner pulse, tac drone, pulse beacon, heartbreaker pulse proc, linked laser pointer attachment pulse proc, flatline pulse proc all interact with microwave coils modifier to set npc on fire

up to 4 per anyways

[dry gate]

i see so it's microwave coils that does it got it

[full zinc]

that same block in your inventory that Lo5T directed you too earlier has a breakdown of each modifier when you click them. reaper pulse or something like that also interacts with pulse, and both drive up your momentum meter. but get your butt too 40 and then worry about all this

[dry gate]

is superior bench the highest for crafting table?

[lunar hare]

iirc yes

[wise basalt]

is there another website where u can spec to include expertise to see how much of an increase ur getting? Tried division builder, but it only goes up to 24 expertise, and it doesn't seem u can do this with armor

[proven cape]

Jesus i hate the pestilence farm, I have done countdown all day and still haven't gotten it. It says it's in the general loot pool

[azure lintel]

are they gonna fix the egg hunt or..

[south topaz]

armor expertise above 12 is not worth it at all

[severe moon]

Is their a minimum shade level I should be before going to DZ?

[dry gate]

@rigid flicker I'm 33 .. not sure if I'll be strong enough but I can try

[formal epoch]

games not cross play

[dry gate]

ah.. that sucks

[winter pelican]

Is st elmo engine and other guns that have fixed mods and such the same every time I loot them or should I farm more of the same weapon to get a better one?

[steady merlin]

fixed

[winter pelican]

Cool. No need to farm more then.

[broken solstice]

the third attribute can be different each drop. you can re-kajigger the weapon and hope for a better set of rolls and a desirable third attribute like DTOC rather than accuracy or swap speed or whatever it drops with

but yea the fixed mods are the same no matter what

[shrewd cosmos]

Are there 5 rabbit pieces or 3? I only got three and don't see any more projects

[broken solstice]

fourth project will come out tomorrow night evidently

im gonna try to finish the third tonight. im already 30 eggs in so i'll find a big chungus and hit his minigun until i finish this project to see if a new one comes up or not. but i think i'll probably have to wait

[shrewd cosmos]

I found that the wardog method was way way faster

[broken solstice]

hows that work

[shrewd cosmos]

Go to air and space invaded, set to challenge, clear enemies except for wardog. Then shoot the red kneecap to stun it. I did it at point blank while attached to cover with my hot shot sniper. You don't even need to move, just hold aim, fire when he stands, reload, repeat.

If there is a channel that I can post a clip I will

[broken solstice]

oh nice. dont bother with a clip for me, i know what you're saying

[solemn rivet]

18 St Elmos from Countdown runs today. Not one Strega

K i l l m e

[broken solstice]

dang. strega is cool but when you find yourself alone against rogues and you dont have any damage stacked up on the strega it is not fun

[solemn rivet]

Trying to get it with a ND build using the turmoil kneepads

Group DPS party

[broken solstice]

oh i didnt realize it synergized with negotiators. thats cool

[burnt moat]

got a popup saying the server is restarting in less than 30m- is that just a server swap, or is there an expected downtime?

[hybrid ore]

@burnt moat It's a visual bug, dw about it.

[round oar]

Strega might not be in the AR loot pool, I forget if it's 1 or 2 seasons before seasonal exotics get moved to their respective pools

[woeful dawn]

no it is

[broken solstice]

yea i've had a couple drop in the open world from random bad dudes

[burnt moat]

ty

[hybrid ore]

@solemn rivet I've gotten 3 Stregas' from the Prio Objectives so far, if that helps your farming decisions.

[solemn rivet]

Ayo, we at 20 elmo drops

AYO. CHAMELEON NUMBER 10

(Im finna cry.)

[hybrid ore]

If anyone could explain to me in #off-topic-discussions why "finna" became a thing, when it's the same length as "gonna", I'd be very grateful.

[dry gate]

quick question.. it appears matchmaking is pretty dead for stuff like classified missions etc?

what's the most active stuff for matchmaking now?

[burnt moat]

was in fact not a visual glitch 😭

[dry gate]

Ageeeent Leeeee... noooooo

[south topaz]

weekly legendary and daily missions are most active, everything else kinda dead, decent matchmake works when good talent pool comes

[dry gate]

thanks.. so once i reach 40 and get some solid build I can play all the content really with people who are like level 12k or something or I have to juice everything up to that level in order to do it?

like raids, or any challenging activity?

well I'm sorry to tell you guys.. Agent Lee didn't make it

[dire ravine]

You can also just call for backup people seem to respond to that more

[dry gate]

inside classified missions?

[dire ravine]

Wherever you want help

[dry gate]

well none of these missions are really hard.. it's more like playing with someone

[dire ravine]

I get that. The game is definitely more fun when others join

[dry gate]

I mean I can't complain.. it's been 6+ years.. the game is understandably slower when it comes to matchmaking so I get it.. I was just curious where the most of the activity is still happening with matchmaking

[ocean raptor]

Yeah Legendary gets a good amount, pvp sometimes and backup calls. I cant find anyone in raids rn

[broken solstice]

if you just want to play with other people i think theres an option for like random activity or random mission or whatever that will hook you up with someone who is already in progress playing something

[hybrid ore]

@ocean raptor You cant matchmake for actual raids, just the Discovery version.

[dry gate]

I'm guessing wekeends are probably much better than weekdays too

[hybrid ore]

the discovery version is a noob-trap, you arent meant to play them.
yes its dumb.

[ocean raptor]

Oh wow

[hybrid ore]

tl;dr Discovery vs Normal.
Disco has: weaker enemies, no projects, simplier mechanics, no exotic drops, no unique boss rewards, no main commendation progress.

If you want to do your first Raid, give #lfg-raid-pc a try, but also check out the GCrock server, they teach them.

start off with Dark Hours, it's simpler, and is basically just minor mechanics and a DPS check.

[dry gate]

so classified missions and other activities you can still "call of help" when you start them or nah?

[hybrid ore]

Other stuff? Yes. Classified? I'm honestly not sure, but I'd assume so.

[dry gate]

I just finished classified mission so I can't see until I start another one..

[ocean raptor]

Ive done dark hours many times in the past but never was able to get a IH raid. Wanted to try to get regulus

[hybrid ore]

If you are talking about Discovery: you haven't even done DH once.

If the normal mode: then yeah IH is going to be tougher, but once you know what to do and have your set role, you'll be fine.

[lyric orbit]

We help players learn raid mechanics through guided runs. You can find us [here](#td2-clan-recruitment message). Training raids are hosted on Monday, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

[dry gate]

how long do the raids usually last in Div 2?

[ocean raptor]

Thanks

[solemn rivet]

Make a healer build > Rake in the raid completions

[lyric orbit]

It all depends on the raid and how smoothly things go. Dark Hours usually takes anywhere from 15 to 45 minutes depending on the team, while Iron Horse can run between 45 minutes to an hour and a half.

[south topaz]

matchmaking is same for lvl 40 or 40k so ull matched with higher levels, but game do prioritise lower levels for lower levels if enough people r searching

[dry gate]

thanks.. makes sense

[swift temple]

They are so sneaky with the apparel stuff. Some stuff you can buy almost all items with textiles. but usually one of the set items you have to buy with premium credits 🙂

[inner elbow]

It do be like that

[swift temple]

Sneaky sneaky

[rugged copper]

Is it possible to get the same blueprint twice from weekly summit project reward?

[inner elbow]

What blueprint

And probably not. Why would you want another blueprint?

[rugged copper]

No no, I do not want the same thing twice, I just wanted to confirm it just

I have been doing CP for so long for tactical assessment blueprints but all I am getting is equipment blueprints😭

[lunar hare]

CP's blueprint pool is massive, keep trying

[rare dragon]

Took me so long before I got them all haha it will take tim

[gilded pagoda]

why did my egg count reset to 0 ?

i had 81 egg yesterday and now its back at 0

[rare dragon]

it seems like when new project comes out, the previous one resets unfortuentl

unfortunately*

[gilded pagoda]

what a load of crap

[dapper atlas]

They are currently investigating this.

[rare dragon]

Gonna be a tidious event if all the days is "gather 100 eggs"

[gilded pagoda]

yeah especially if you don't want to farm a single chonga for 10-15 min

[fickle moat]

Maybe they’ll give credit to the ones who collected it

[west aspen]

Can anyone confirm if Acosta’s knee pads can drop in the open world? I’ve been farming Countdown a lot with target loot ( kneepads ) but haven’t had any luck so far.

[rare dragon]

The thing is you can easily get that done with just playing normally, I personally have a problem where I hyperfocus on challenges and stuff tho, so I need to get them done asap, so farming Chongas for me it is

[gilded pagoda]

well you cant do that by playing normally if you lose your eggs know what i mean 😄

[rare dragon]

Haha yeah true

[south topaz]

in pathway park it takes 5 min everyday, thats what i'm doing

[gilded pagoda]

thats 3 eggs per second, i dont believe you

[south topaz]

no blueprints from project and control points r unique, u should do as much as projects possible including shd projects in all 4 character to grind it faster

[hybrid ore]

The trick with Pathway Park (from what I've seen anyway), is to clear (not counting the melee units of course) the first area on Normal with a Demo Firefly, then detonate yourself with an explosive sticky.
Then just do it over and over until you want to go collect the eggs from the ground.

I did it with a T6 Skill Build, but YMMV on what you'll actually need to ensure kills+such.

1 or even 3 a second is a bit much, but it is very quick overall. If a bit boring. You can just get them from any enemy with bunny ears, but YMMV on how long that can take.

[gilded pagoda]

that actually makes sense and my math skill sucks and im an idiot apparently

bcs 3 eggs per second would equal 900 eggs in 5 min

[hybrid ore]

My RNG dropped down to only 3 of the 5 enemies there spawning as Firefly targets, but even with that bad RNG; still worth it.

[south topaz]

cz in story its 5 npc everytime many missed that part when the reddit guy shared or me posting everywhere

[tender wave]

The minitank approach is probably the fastest if you can get it down perfectly, although in my attempts yesterday I kept killing the minitank or the controller by mistake

[hybrid ore]

See, when I tried the minitank method, it would take way too long for them to repair it.

I'm sure it's down to a balance of staying the right distance away, but this way was just more solid overall.

[rugged copper]

Wdym by all 4 character? @south topaz

[tender wave]

The trick is to keep them repairing it by preventing the minitank from reaching full health

[south topaz]

every character has their own project so u can complete same project 4 times, people do shd project cz its most easier and gives 1 exotic and blueprint in ur case, thats 4 exotic + 4 blueprint every week

[rugged copper]

Every character?? Im confused by the character thing sir

[tender wave]

As long as they stay repairing, the tracks pop back up every couple of seconds, so you just have to keep switching between tracks and body, but it's a little fiddly to maintain

[hybrid ore]

Yeah I know that lol, kinda obvious.

[tender wave]

You can have up to 4 characters on your account

Go to the login screen and you'll see the option to switch to a new one

[rugged copper]

Wait whaaat

How does that work even?

Could you elaborate further?

[inner elbow]

It's just another character. Nothing special. Most resources can be shared across your characters. Projects, map progress are separate.

[tender wave]

You share stash and shd levels (except between hardcore and non hardcore characters) and expertise, and a few other things. You can choose to share resources and blueprints too.

[warm zodiac]

Good morning everyone. I would like to ask why I never got Lexington weapon? I play over 2 years and didn't got it. I sent mail to ubisoft and they didn't reply

[tender wave]

It was a limited time giveaway, you had to log in before 1st Jan to get it

[warm zodiac]

I did. I was online

Not even in stash and friends got it there even they didn't play for a long

[tender wave]

I mean, between 24th Nov 2024 (when the giveaway started) and 1st Jan

They'll probably do another in the future but nothing confirmed yet

[hybrid ore]

It is confirmed, just not the "when".

[warm zodiac]

That's strange. I can't understand why didn't got it. 😦

Thank you for reply guys

[hybrid ore]

They even added a second copy to people's Stash's in case they missed the first one.

Double-check that it's not on a different character, because it was sent to whomever you first logged on with post-gun release.

[warm zodiac]

I hope. Also emperor's guard kneepads can i get it from named items on countdown?

[inner elbow]

Named item caches, yes

[warm zodiac]

Nice. Because on dz they killed me and took it

[hybrid ore]

Countdown itself doesn't actually drop DZ items, but yeah as Penguin said, Named Item caches, and sometimes the CD Vendor.

[inner elbow]

Given the number of named items out there, the loot pool is really diluted. It's the safest way but not the most reliable

[warm zodiac]

A guy that run on the wall killed as without even use weapon and took it

[hybrid ore]

Your best bet is to wait for a Global Event, then farm out as many Stars as you can.
then spam-buy Named Item caches until you run out.

[rare dragon]

Question of the day, why cant we automatically mark items from Field Proficiency Caches as junk.

[warm zodiac]

Vendors refresh every Tuesday?

[inner elbow]

Correct

[warm zodiac]

Nice thank you for 🙏

[hybrid ore]

It's something they're looking at, same as mass-opening them.
but both are kinda tricky, as each time you open one, it contacts the server and generates the loot right then-and-there.

[azure lintel]

We should do an event where we all open our caches at the same time

To limit test the servers

[signal grail]

So uh, is the easter egg thing still under investigation or etc yet coz I haven't tried playing much but the resetting did irk-ed me./

[rugged copper]

How many blueprints are there in the game in total?

[hybrid ore]

If you go to your Crafting Table, you can see the absoute total, but that also includes ones that are currently not available anymore due to previous Season weirdness.
IIRC about 300-ish outside of those.

[warped relic]

I just hit level 30. Is the district arera stronghold soloable, or do I need friends/really good gear?

[hybrid ore]

You can solo all the missions in the game, but you'll have an easier time if you invite a friend in to help.

[tender wave]

Still under investigation

[hybrid ore]

You could still see the mushroom cloud that would create 6 months later.

[rare dragon]

Thats great news, I was getting 20 caches a game when it was 3x Conflict, these things would for sure make it easier in the future

[azure lintel]

You can also sort your inventory by Recent after opening caches and quickly mark all the items as junk

[rugged copper]

What is the quickest way to earn XP?

[inner elbow]

Well

Propaganda Broadcasts, control points on Heroic difficulty with as many directives as you can handle, during an XP event.

[rugged copper]

There isnt any xp event going on I guess?

[inner elbow]

Not at the moment

[rugged copper]

I just happen to see one of my friends in friendlist jumped by about 25-30 levels in an hour, wondering how he did so

[tender wave]

Control point farming heroic 5 directives, probably. Maybe conflict though, I've heard that can give quick levels if you're winning

[iron gust]

Check his build

[rugged copper]

Does build play a role in getting more xp?

[iron gust]

It can, certain builds speed up activities that give you more xp

[rugged copper]

Elaborate please

[low lily]

If you running determined build then yeah you get a lot XP from headshot kills

[rugged copper]

Nothing fancy, a mix of armour and dps

[iron gust]

Builds like chain killer determined or eclipse protocol build do activities quicker
You get more XP with higher difficulty and directives on and those builds work well in those cases
Activities being things like public executions or control points

[rugged copper]

How does those builds help me do activities quicker?

I mean, what makes them do activities quicker.

[iron gust]

They're efficient at killing npcs quicker therefore completing the activity quicker

[rugged copper]

Isnt a good striker build enough for killing npcs quicker too?

Or is there particular build for it?

I have about 49% cric chance, 140% cric dmg and 90% weapon dmg, wondering if I should go for a different build to kill npcs quicker?

[iron gust]

Striker is good but if you're XP farming it's not the fastest

[rugged copper]

Oh yes, my watch isnt maxed, so the cric chance & dmg would increase more

[dry gate]

holy sh*t I just finished the capitol building stronghold and I noticed it's kind of a level up event type of thing but I was not prepared for this juiced up intensity in the city now.. robots and juggs fighting in the streets.. this is wild!

[rugged copper]

Suggest one

[iron gust]

Determined talent with chain killer or eclipse protocol fire build
What difficulty and directives are you playing on?

[rugged copper]

Heroic with 4 directives

Not using the one where ammo starts with 0

[tender wave]

Capitol is the end of the main part of the base storyline. Run the three invaded strongholds and then the new one that will appear to complete the second part, and the game will open up even further. Reach level 40 and claim your watch for access to any remaining activities.

[iron gust]

If you're new and still farming cps for blueprints a determined build is probably ideal

Some cps are quick others are a bit slower to clear

[rugged copper]

Im at level 519

The CPs take way too long I guess compared to any bounties or other activities ( trtry control or public exec)

[iron gust]

Try an eclipse fire build on public executions with challenging 5 directives. Slightly less XP than heroic but very quick to do (like 10 seconds if you know the spawn of the second npc wave)

[tender wave]

With a good headhunter build you can clear an outcast CP in like 3m or less, heroic 5 directives

Public executions are faster in theory but you have to factor in variable travel time

[rugged copper]

What does the headhunter build focus on?

[tender wave]

See the 'sniper setups' build guide in the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

Simplest version is just 4pc hotshot, chainkiller and airaldi vigilance bag, all hsd and handling, and a high damage sniper rifle

[maiden cradle]

Definitely recommend one, once it spools up (which doesn't take much besides some initial accuracy with the right weapons) it shreds through anything that isn't a boss fight, and some encounters that are

[tender wave]

You need sharpshooter or maybe gunner for some ammo regen to get you started if you're running pistolero, then hotshot will keep you topped up as long as you don't miss too often

[maiden cradle]

still so sad that perfect determined is just, a worse version of determined

[tender wave]

Guaranteed crit on every second shot though! (If you keep hitting heads on the off shots)

[maiden cradle]

Yeah but it won't let me wipe rooms by shooting every enemy in the big toe

therefore, it remains inferior

[tender wave]

But yeah, also no-one builds for crit and hsd when they're additive

[maiden cradle]

forgot they were additive, honestly

been a bit since I number crunched for a build

[tender wave]

Not often you'd try to combine them, usually only diamondback builds

[rugged copper]

Can anyone provide me with the build spreadsheet?

[maiden cradle]

should be pinned in #td2-build-advice

[wise basalt]

so bosses at cps don't count towards wkly project? need to kill 1 more outcast boss, cleared sleepy giant, but neither bosses counted

[empty egret]

Heyo

[gentle agate]

Hola

[tender wave]

They generally do if it's heroic. You have to get the kill yourself though, not teammates or npcs.

[royal crescent]

Currently farming the loot goblin can I get the Lexington?

💔

[pine stratus]

Hey guys does heartbreaker have a hidden cooldown to register stacks ? I find myself dumping 10 shots from the automatic shotgun and barely fills the buff bar ?

[split perch]

hello I have a question guys

[severe moon]

Can dark winter drop from level 4 control point?

[tender wave]

It can be a bit finicky sometimes. Make sure you're pulsing the enemy, and note that you can't stack on skill proxies like turrets and minitanks

[tender wave]

Nope, have to get it from DZ or named caches

[rare dragon]

Named Caches drops really often for me

I recommend running Countdown and spam named caches

[split perch]

nvm i don't think anyone will answer my question

[severe moon]

@rare dragon sweet farm countdown and buy name caches awesome dude thanks

[split perch]

?

[tender wave]

You have to ask the question if you want someone to answer it...

[split perch]

What is a good major for someone who is bad at math or hates math

[inner elbow]

Oh

[rare dragon]

No worries, set the targeted loot to some gear you need, or weapons like AR’s for example, you will be farming loads of gear you can donate for expertise and get loads of exotics at the same time you are hunting that Dark Winter 😄

[rare dragon]

Why do you think it is a good idea to ask in a Division server

[inner elbow]

I mean there's #off-topic-discussions

[hybrid ore]

@split perch As this is a div server, and no one here is qualified to answer your education question, I'd recommend looking elsewhere..

[split perch]

I'll ask there then

[inner elbow]

Also... Idk why anyone would want a math major... Being a mathematician, or a math teacher, is extremely boring

[opaque ruin]

Not quite the topic I was expecting in here, but sure.

[severe moon]

Are exotic drops rare in Countdown? I ran 10 times not 1. I guess countdown is more for buy exotic caches

[hybrid ore]

It beats the 46th person asking about the Lexington today.

[inner elbow]

Wait-

[inner elbow]

Yeah getting exotics to drop in Countdown is quite rare.

[opaque ruin]

I'm at the point now where I need to either suck it up and really hit Descent hard for named item blueprints or go for the caches from Countdown. Not having the Matador yet is getting annoying.

And they're allergic to Walker Harris being targeted loot in the DZ.

[hybrid ore]

Since the DZ has somewhat of a limited series of options, using backpacks in there for the farm is not out of the question.

[severe moon]

@opaque ruin I did decent yesterday it’s really tough for me to like that game mode

[opaque ruin]

I don't mind Descent. It's just going to be a grind to get those blueprints.

[severe moon]

One thing coming back to this game I love before you enter the DZ seeing all the players gank people through the wall, saves me time to not go in lol

[rare dragon]

Not really, I get exotics all the time

[severe moon]

I did when April Fools event going on none since

[rare dragon]

I like to Target AR’s when I run Countdown, seem to drop the most then

It rains Chameleons then, lol

[severe moon]

Yeah I know got two in 1 drop

[rare dragon]

Yep I believe I did as well

[severe moon]

I want a pestilence and that will never drop in countdown

Better off with summit

[rare dragon]

Never been a fan of summit personally

Countdown is less boring imo, and the countdown points are great for named/exo caches

Also more enemies, i feel like the drops are better

[severe moon]

I like summit because I don’t get booted out of Heroic countdown every damn game before I have a chance to play

[rare dragon]

What is your SHD?

Also, just run Challenging Countdown, should be fine then 🙂

You get Heroic loot regardless of difficulty in Countdown, if you didnt know

[severe moon]

My shade level is low because my original account was hacked and stole by some Russian dude 3 weeks ago and now I lm 72

I was 600 SHD on my original account

[rare dragon]

Yeah I see why you might get kicked from Heroic, but just run Challenging,
It doesnt make much of a difference, and then no one should vote you out

[severe moon]

People love to assume everyone with low SHD are noobs when I know several dudes who were over 1000 SHD that came from Console to PC and restarted

[rare dragon]

Well SHD sometimes means jack shit, seen people with literally random builds with 3k+ SHD’s

[opaque ruin]

Well no one is interviewing their Countdown teams to find out. And considering wasting 15 mins isn't on the agenda for most people it's bound to happen.

[rare dragon]

Yeah, i tend to judge by builds tho, if I see a SHD 100 join, but he has standard striker dps, why not?

[opaque ruin]

Yeah if someone takes the time to do that then sure. I'd imagine most people don't.

[rare dragon]

True, judge by the SHD and decide on kick/stay, makes sense if people dont care enough to check every single person lol

[still hamlet]

So glad the easter eggs reset without doing anything

[inner elbow]

What why

[still hamlet]

My exact question

[hybrid ore]

It's a bug, it's being looked at.

That's all we know, MSV don't like to tell us stuff early.

You get used to it.

[still hamlet]

Damn flies and their annoyance

[hybrid ore]

fun fact: the origin of that expression ("bug") was actually a moth in a computer.
So I propose that we start to say "MSV are mothing it out".

I will not take any questions.

[still hamlet]

MSV = Moth Service Viable?

[inner elbow]

Enough Discord for today

[hybrid ore]

Mothsive Entertainment.

[still hamlet]

Moth-er

[rare dragon]

My dad would have a laugh, if he spoke English😭

[hybrid ore]

It's been too long since I tortured people on here with bad puns.

[still hamlet]

They have to find it punny to begin with

[west aspen]

Can anyone confirm if Acosta’s knee pads can drop in the open world? I’ve been farming Countdown a lot with target loot ( kneepads ) but haven’t had any luck so far.

[broken solstice]

i cant remember the instance when got them but i do have two pairs of them. one from the seasonal rewards track and the other.. maybe open world or exotic cache? i couldnt tell ya

not a useful exotic in my opinion. allegedly

[silver eagle]

Is there anything like trade between people when they meet online? Apart from sharing loot from Countdown

[west aspen]

True, you're right 😅 Not really useful, but I’m just tryna complete my exotic collection. Got all the others — just missing this one.

[digital apex]

Hi guys! Is there any build/strategy that can solo 5 legendary hunters with them being 4-man hp at summit floor 100? I can easily solo 2-3 legendary hunters using riot grenade, but not 4 or 5, given that I want to carry new players with ~100 SHD level, using my all +28 weapons, skills and equipments.

[inner elbow]

We don't have much to work with since you already showed that you are quite capable of doing the hunters

We could suggest a few things but odds are you already know them

[vale ledge]

Anyone else lagging in game?

[grand blade]

I had a strange, sudden freeze for a couple of seconds earlier 🤔

[vale ledge]

Yeah I got disconnected..

[turbid aurora]

I'm helping my new friends

Do U still need to control points for alot of the blueprints

And if so is it level 3 or 4

[tender wave]

Yes, and either 3 or 4, although lvl 4 give some more blueprints from the reward chest as well

[broken solstice]

either

[severe moon]

quick question do you have to max out your SHD level to 1 shot heroic enemies?

with a snipe of course

[tender wave]

No, not even close

[severe moon]

lol gotcha

[woeful narwhal]

I just hit 40 and is it normal to feel you hit with a pillow on world level hard ? I just cant seem to do much dmg

[balmy aurora]

some of my set gear have 2 attribute and some do not

[molten spire]

yes, if you're still on purples and blues/rainbow builds you won't do a lot of damage

doing weapon damage requires speccing into weapon damage "core" attributes - this spreadsheet's Hub tab has some builds https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nrPBmOrtpkEW1j5fbcRT7L-AXgsGOqMqxXoVtopsiGM/htmlview

More to come soon!

Hopefully I have free time this weekend

One of the easiest ways to start out at lvl 40 is just to throw on 6 skill tiers and let striker drone and assault turret do all the work for you. That'll clear challenging difficulty easily enough for you to start putting together some proper builds. You can easily get capacitor from summit floor a decent boost too

[timber hatch]

whats taking so long

[molten spire]

the egg hunt

[keen osprey]

Jump into the countdown mode - open the matchmaking tab and find a countdown on challenging difficulty. Set your targeted loot to strikers battle gear and make sure you equip at maximum 4 pieces along with any other red core items until you build your agent aswel as build understanding.

Get busy on YouTube with guides, search up "beginner/returning agent builds" and you'll start to notice your damage increasing.

[novel laurel]

I had a big speech to do for class and I just moved up the ladder at work

[novel laurel]

Hell no, I'm gonna do that all the last day

[keen osprey]

You absolutely don't want to do that.

600 weakpoints in a day is torture

[novel laurel]

It'll take about an hour

If I just farm a chunga belt

And I'm getting a ton passively from legendary

[keen osprey]

Lot of people doing that but I'd highly recommend the 5 enemies on story mode pathway at the start. Demolisher firefly. You'll get 5 eggs every 20 seconds

[broken solstice]

I got a hundred eggs from one big boi in like less than 20 min

It only takes like 4 or 5 bullets at his gun to get an egg to drop

[novel laurel]

Elite territory control just farm the named guy

[novel laurel]

Yea so about an hour for 600

[broken solstice]

Ah ok that sounds about right

[novel laurel]

Roughly

[keen osprey]

Waiting for him to repair the belt is much more tedious than aiming a firefly at 5 enemies, dying, repeating

[broken solstice]

I got lucky. I completed all 3 projects so far without timing out and losing my progress

[opaque ruin]

I'll give this a shot tonight. I've been chunga farming prior.

[keen osprey]

I did the chunga aswel and realised it's too slow, even if he's blacklisted/frenzied

[unique bramble]

And also the firefly is weak asf, like a single outcast thrower bag destroyed my firefly on heroic.

[keen osprey]

Firefly on story pops the cannisters of the cleaners without it being destroyed

[unique bramble]

But their canister drop an egg?

[broken solstice]

I found it faster to stick with a lone big chungus than it was to go find targets with weak points for the firefly

[unique bramble]

Because like, the accolade "tactical kill" doesn't count those despite being weak point.
