You can only recalibrate one slot, and you need to have enough of the attribute to recalibrate it to
For example if you wanted a recalibrate a weapon with swap speed to damage to armour, you'd need to have the damage to armour stat in your library
Ahh ok
With them removing mules I better be able to craft an item with the exact piece I want like choose what sub attributes what main core and talent bc some pieces I have I had to farm for like 5 months for and some I had to go through entire characters worth of points to craft
Wait... wasn't that just a hat and some boots or something?
coming off of cover has to bhe the clunkiest thing in this whole game
is season pass permanent or gotta buy for every new season?
@crisp shore The Season Pass itself is free, the Paid Tier is just cosmetics and excess caches.
Note: starting next Season, you may need to own the new DLC, but it'll still be the same system otherwise.
The actual content is included in the Free Season Pass, e.g. new Exotics, Named Items, etc.
how much will the new dlc be? or is that unkown?
$15 USD.
oh that aint bad
i own the wony dlc i think
ill have a look tmrw at what to do for quicker progress on the season pass stuff
ravenous can be droped from dz ?
@deft talon Ravenous/Bighorn/Eagle Bearer can all drop inside the DZ itself, but it's got a stupidly low chance (0.02%), that can not be modified by Targeted Loot, and you need to extract it too.
So it's not really worth specifically farming in there for it.
ty
what is DZ?
dark zone?
thats pvp right? get my butt handed to me lol
yeah
sadge
PvEvP
If you choose off hours or get lucky you can avoid other players, unfortunately the loot is just not worth the risk
what about countdown? im not lvl 40 yet but thats no pvp right
no
purely coop PvE
that sounds better
Lmao, what
.
I can not wait for mules to go away... all the salt gonna be perfect on my 🍿
Realistically, they've made everything so much easier concerning farming. Expertise upgrades are 30% their original costs. Multiple 3x-5x xp events.
There has been soo much time to make mules, with enough time to get a bunch more in.
Spend the time grinding while you still can. Much better than whining about a future non issue 💯
Jmho
Check the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice , lots of solid build guide to follow
mules?
It's a way of duplicating shd watch scavenging points.
The reason people like the current system, is that gaining materials if you don't have a ton of time to play is very tedious, and could definitely do with a look at.
Anyone who doesn't have that extra time to spend, is a newer player so didn't have a chance to make a bunch of mules already, etc, are kinda getting screwed over by the system changing-up so late in life.
awe
I honestly think this change will go the way of the "can't change your gear outside of a safe zone" thing.
Leveling a fresh alt to level 40 gives that alt a new watch equivelant to the main agents shd, but with a full set scavenging points. (Scavenging points equal current shd-800) so someone at shd 2000 would get 1200 scavenging points after a quick 1-2 hr leveling and alt to 40. It's also been unlimited so one could level, drain points, delete alt, repeat.
Scavenging is moving to a shared pool so this loophole is being closed... I think a few will lose their shit for a few days once the door slams shut
It should be very much noted: no newbie is only taking 1-2 hours to get from 31-40.
There is always carry agents able to help
ppl rly level that fast? im on day 3 ish and only just hit lvl 18 lol
Once you know the tricks you can, for sure. But early on? No chance.
And having to rely on external LFG systems is a problem all on its own.
Yeah, they level 30 boost and an shd agent at level 40 can run them through like 6-8 missions and get it done
ah i got one character that i used the 30 boost on dint enjoy it tbh
felt like i missed half the story
What deck' is talking about is when you join someone elses game and have them host high-level missions, so you get hard carried.
i dont got friends so no carrying here lol
Lvl 31 Agents can't actually access missions that high in difficulty.
For the record, I still have my original 4 alts, but have carried a lot before one* end game and it was always about 1.5hrs for wony carry. It's easier now
3alts/1main
That makes more sense.
Not trying to sound rude here, but you clearly abused the system yourself, and now are happy that other people can't?
I'm upset that Firewall doesn't get incendiary grenades.
Firewall and Survivalist should have their specialty grenades swapped.
The popcorn emote and talk of their tears as your falvouring gave me that impression.
How so? I've created my originals and never deleted any... I've always encouraged early creation of alts for the same reason 😉
I'll also be losing points when new system is implemented
You get a 1 time drop of Scav Points with the new system, then never again.
scav points?
Yup, it is needed. It's been a free for all, forever
Well, not really "forever", it's only been since they removed the World Tiers.
before that, you still needed to complete the WONY campaign.
No, it's been since shd was implimented... wony runs were super common way before 1endgane
.....I never said they started when the Tiers were removed.
I said that's when they got stupidly fast.
Wony was 1.5 with a single shd agent carrying
Yes exactly, you needed someone to carry you.
You know I've played this game since launch, right?
Yes, but mostly solo... right
More solo nowadays, since my old clan left for CoD.
Not a fan of the death threats over combat knives.
Is skill builds not worth using cause there's a enemy in the game that can hack your skills and mess stuff up ?
AFAIK that's just Hunters, and they're quite rare to appear.
The start and end of Countdown has them, and in certain later Manhunt Missions.
Firewall should get incendiary, Demolitionist should get cluster bombs, and Survivalist should get frags.
Point being I'm never solo. I've carried a lot of randos, clan, friends, lfgs through the mule stuff. If you arent grouped a lot its just not common knowledge how fast or common these type of runs are. Not a dig, btw
Ah I see then so skill builds are good the type of enemy just rare to appear ?
Of course it's common knowledge, people never shut up about them.
You're pretty much fine to use them, but they will be slower than red DPS ones.
Also, while I'm here, what's this I'm hearing about resource mule nerfs?
MSV decided that people getting resources for levelling alts was too much, so they're killing it off entirely.
Yeah I have a striker build set up already i was told refractor skill build is great damage and support
It'll be better in a group overall for sure, but you may get left behind if people are running ahead. Just an FYI
Ah okay I understand then
So from what it sees like on youtube damage builds are the way to go are there any other viable builds worth making ?
the best combo I've seen for skills is shock trap + chem launcher.. the guy who was playing with me was wiping out a whole room
shock gets them all paralyzed and then he just chems them and blamo.. done
Obviously you can make whatever you want. Just have fun with it
You don't have to make anything "meta".
...Oh s%&#. I better get on my alts, then. Is it effective on the Brooklyn DLC release?
Yep, Year 7, Season 1.
Meaning roughly 5 days.
You do get back a bunch of scavenger points back depending on your SHD level, correct? to spend once ( From what I saw on the stream )
Oh. 27 days, then.
Do be slightly weary of div2 youtubers, div2 is very math heavy and one light mistake, can snowball.
Yep!
Im in like a second divsion 2 and bro gave me a link for builds and he was telling me most
Youtube builds aren't as good as it seam
Anyways, time to crunch. We can have 4 characters max?
@azure lintel Hah, yeah that's the spreadsheet that's 📌 pinned over in #td2-build-advice.
the whole thing is worth a browse, but the builds tab especially is useful.
You can always leave the group, then you get to reenact the Most Dangerous Game.
But from the perspective of the poor people in it.
i know this is td2 chat, but is td1 worth picking up if on sale?
@crisp shore You now have access to #td1-general, enjoy!
I reached Expertise 16 todaayyyyy 😍
Actually adds up alot, even though it goes slow
👀
Yeah I see
Lv. 1 to 39 DZ is rather enjoyable for me.
But when 40 hits and SHD levels come into play, nope.
Lvl 31 in the DZ, in OCE region, is the most pleasent experience ever.
Because it's entirely empty. PvE DZ!
i will never set foot in dz lol
Yeah this is the build i made im just leveling up my shd going at a decent rate right now but this is 2 builds 1st one is for general play the dude said and second one is for incursions legendary missions and raids
I suck at the dz
Nvm can't screenshot ill just send it build chat
ive encountered a couple people who just run to a cp as soon as they see me start following them
The DZ is canonically a place where your Agent is scared to go, so you can just pretend that you're role-playing.
its not that bad idk
if you run 9 million armor regen you're basically god in there
There's rivens i sent it in the chat
inb4 my alt character tells my main to suck it up and head into the breach just to get some Yaahl Gear
Luckily these days, Yaah is so beyond pointless to use.
Are there any builds that even need it anymore?
My Cavalier + Tardigrade does for the +10% Haz. Resist for full immunity.
Have one on my main, was hoping to get more for my alts.
You could always use the Mask, it's a lot faster to get during a GE cache buy spam.
I still use a piece or two on my old Backfire setup, but that is not a good build lol.
Anyone help me get the big horn at all I’m struggling on solo so bad
can the handbasket still drop from loot goblin?
What’s loot goblin ?
guy with huge backpack with a hand picking up coin as an icon
Oh lol I’ve not played for a year lol only came back like 3 days ago so I’ve forgot a lot aha
theres a new gun they added during easter event bis for determined sniper builds or so ive heard
Oh nice yeah I’m just tryna get the big horn atm but I’m struggling
are you farming in summit?
Trying to but solo legendary is hard
Couldn't easily find one. Besides, I'm obsessed with Named Gear.
Where did you hear it was best in slot?
youtubers and reddit
bruh
Which youtuber
because I have no idea how it can be considered best in slot so I'd like to see the reasoning
thats why i said or so ive heard
pretty much
i think it was because it had similar stats to a bolt action marksman rifle without having to scope out every shot
You'd probably get similar performance with the G28 Relic.
Similar yes, Best? No. White death does way more damage
that gun cant one shot
Also doesnt proc itself like regular determined
Thought it could. Might be remembering it wrong.
Really wish they'd fix that
yeah but handbasket is an svd so it dosent have that bolt action animation
I'll take 6 million more damage and have to unscope after each shot
What, make regular determined work like perfect 
I was getting around 28m with handbasket, it's not bad tbh
make perfect like the normal one.
Nah then they have 2 broken talents
thats fine, but youre already one shotting people even without the extra 6 million damage
this is solo heroic btw xd
yes because we don't have a bunch of other builds that melt everything anyway
They were so bad at fixing regular determined that they just revised the description and called it a day. Enjoy it
i actually might try it with the new kneepads tho
Who would y’all say is the largest and most active division 2 clan on Xbox?
Well I work full time and a second job on some week nights and and weekends the mules help hella I have some items in my inventory that that I used multiple characters to craft bro like 14k points on 4 different characters and your telling me that’s not like crazy and I needed those points bro there’s no way in hell grinding all the money and materials it took to craft one chest is ok bc without mules what I would have used all my points and been stuck with nothing left to spend and still no chest like nah bro we need that shit and expertise is still wildly expensive I mean 8 exotics for 1% is wild bro it’s should coast 1 of each material and to honest I really wouldn’t mind the mule nerf if that let me craft an item they way I want it and it wasn’t a slot machine still or crafting lol roll and hope you get it
Punctuation. Bro
wtf. are you so poor you forgot to buy a comma or period?
wait...does 'bro' mean a period in that...paragraph?
Who shit in your corn flakes?
No idea, I stopped reading after the third bro and zero periods or commas.
i think its voice dictated. idk. anyway
You are not above being mocked
Bro I can hear you pushing your spectacles up from the other side of my phone
I understand your pissed because I'm too, but punctuation is important. Not an run on sentence that's a paragraph on. There's no breaks and your forced to try to read that thing forever.
I thought this was a discord server not a collage essay
Hey im trying to enter the castle and it wont open. are there extra requirements i missed to get into the settlement?
my main language isn't english, i never understood the . and , lol
Nvm im just dumb
Your grammar doesn't have to be perfect but what you said earlier is unreadable
sorry
And the grammar and spelling in this hurts my soul
Wasn't talking to you eric
So not a single word I typed was legible
Grammar police: to correct and serve
That's exactly what I said
Then your lying
You’re
No, not really
I tend to type like I’m talking to someone my bad
Like an intellectual?
I’ve never in my life said a sentence out loud then said period
lol I’m out, gn
Anyone like to help me expertise 28
Bill nye the grammar guy 😂
He's more likely to find help there.
Unless he wanted advice but, that wasn't clear
Ok fair point
in general this isnt a chat of lfg
so generally politely direct the people to the channel if needed
Against farmers, you'll run into a PvPer soon enough.
I'm gonna use this in the future
That was a damn good line
WTS Punctuations Pack for 500 premium credits
ive tired they are dead asf 🤣
Yea that’s how a lot of those lfg’s are I’m always like a day late when people need help
Your best bet is to convince a friend to pick it up and play with you. It's going to be really hard to find someone who's in your level range in a game that's so old
Or try some other discords
you are correct but believe it or not ive seen lot of other players who are my level in my safe house before and ive also looked at other discords but they are dead 💀
the game is still very active which shocks me and the DLC coming may 27th will bring some new players hopefully
Yea Xbox has the lfg for each game I’m not entirely sure if pc has something like that
you cant claim exotics with watch points, so listing that part of the expertise cost as a reason you want mules is kinda hollow. the costs were much, much higher before. right now you can expertise 1 item to 28 for 60 exotic components, at original costs it would be 205 exo components. the other material costs were also lowered.
this is also a looter shooter so grind is a main function. after 7200 hrs im deeply aware of the time to grind, and the material costs for pretty much everything. ive got 4 agents fully geared/specs leveled just to facilitate some of the costs like farming projects for exo components and easy levels.
you are not required to craft anything, and most of the time it isnt worth. youll always spend a lot on optimizations because crafted items generally drop with normal level rolls. chances are you could farm the pieces with much better rolls and only need 1-2 optimizations. i bet you could save a lot of points if you let rng work, and not have to have something this instant at the cost of, "14k points on 4 different characters", for a few shared items.... there are always a few solid ways to build something, so unicorns can be bypassed until rng drops you 1.
all builds function just as well with no expertise, so its also not required. it is definitely an end game concern when builds are complete. hopfully you been saving some of your mats by not expertising gear, and only expertise guns and skills you use a lot that have perfect rolls.
XP events like the 3x and 5x events never happened like they do now. you may get a 2x here and there , but it was for only 15 levels, not 1000 levels like they are now. there is a ton of opportunity to grind easy levels.
and just to be clear, im not against people using mules. i havent personally deleted any of my alts to mule it, but i do benefit from each having their own duplicate watches. ive helped a lot of people grind to the watch, and encouraged anyone to make the alts early to benefit themselves... but it is a loop hole that needs to be closed. i personally dont think it would have had any action taken if they werent implementing a level 40 boost. a level 40 boost that is another way they are making the game stupid easy.
but you do have time to take advantage before next season. if you wait till points are claimed to buy the share blueprints you can overcap your materials on alt delete
God damn, I thought you were rewriting the bible over ther local with how much it would pop up that you were typing
Two thousand, two hundred, and thirty three characters.
its in parts 😉
local dropping the equivalent of 6 clan posts.
come on
buddy what the hell is this
freaking text wall
Optimising poor rolled gear will eat a ridiculous am mount of SHD points, exotic components are rare but the real bottle next on mules is the little flags,
I just wish they would've closed the loophole earlier so people wouldn't have complained as much
Now everyone feels entitled to it
i think there is a pinned post about farming shd in #ask-td2-community , something about control points. frd is also a benefit on that farming method 😎
was trying to blind everyone that is using darker discord themes 🧑🦯
Real question im a 345 out of 350 how do yall manage your stash? because im starting to think im a hoarder
4 characters
@inland nymph You're almost certainly keeping junk.
Take a look at an item (assuming it's not an Exotic). Can you make it perfect with 1 recal and a few optimisations, and if not, is it hard to re-farm (e.g. can you get it in Countdown)?
If it's easy to get, and it's junk: you know what to do.
gotchu say less
I gotcha, bud.
Take look at stash, throw out junk
make 3 alts, put gear in their inventory. easy 450 additional inventory spaces (they all share the same stash)
ig Bill beat me to it 
I aint doin all that bro at least not yet
You can farm them but most people will be overcap anyway, a mule can only add 999 at most so the best idea is to optimise and expertise on your mules before buying shared resources. I did like 30 decently rolled weapons, fully optimisted and expertise 12 and that ate like 6k SHD. Those weapons were all close to max stats too.
na, you were more clear, I was in the middle of a control point so I just threw something up quick
Every mule should max SHD resources and craft faction research data, that'll be about 7k SHD per mule.
It's easy dude.. You just have to make the character and do the opening mission. And you instantly have an extra 150 stash
ill be draining what i have close to when they get swapped to shared pool. afaik they will be setting scav level to shd-800 so itll be like having a fresh mule. at least i think thats the intent
its like a couple minutes each, they dont need to be an shd agent or anything
Know what you actually need and don’t just stash things bc they have a high roll
So the only way to get Bighorn is through legendary missions right?
legendary named enemies
Awesome thanks : ]
floor 10 probably fastest farm
kill boss, pick up loot, leave some enemy alive, lobby, repeat 😉
any 10th floor works this way
Oh dang didn't know that thx for the info I'll definitely put it to some good use 👀
https://streamable.com/mo2dvg?src=player-page-share
Here's a showcase vid, good luck
I had a response to your message but I said the b word and it flagged my message. I’m not gonna type it all back out but I agree with a lot you said. I do think most coast to items needs to be reduced even more , if I gain 1% there’s no reason it should coast so much, same with gear and guns 70 mask material for 1 upgrad is crazy to me. I’m all for the nerf if they take a look at those things , but if coasts stay the same it’s gonna suck for new players
Do you also enjoy quick sand
a lot of what they been changing has been specifically for newer agents as a way to lower the bar of entry. i think this is gonna continue for different aspects of the game. the way i see it, the biggest benefit of expertise and fully optimized gear is in pvp. in pve, we arent really competing and just trying to min max for personal satisfaction. im heavy into building as my main draw so i do understand where you were coming from as well. ig i coulda went softer on the salty tears monologue, but its kinda my nature to poke things and see if i get bit
. hopfully the changes can be supplemented a bit more , even if its just more ways to farm for specific mats, or an increase in what comes from the different mat/opt/recal caches you get as reward. i dont think gear farming gets any easier than countdown, but it would be nice to see some of the dz exclusive items show up in the general loot pool. definitely take advantage and overcap as much as possible with mules until next season.
Yea I’m not trippin to much I’m 16k , but my heart goes out to new players. I was once there and I have bad rng so a lot of items took me a long time to get. Just my hasburg chest I farmed countdown for 6 months straight every night for at least 3-4 hours, and when I eventually didn’t get it still I went to crafting , and that item alone took 3 characters 14k point roughly each before I got what I needed.
oh jesus
It’s ok you can poke at me all you want man idc , I will say tho I haven’t felt more stupid then when they all pointed out how crap I am a punctuation
i bypassed habsburg all together
not alone, i jack up msg constantly. im sure rivens has access to my edit log and probably has a good laugh that my edit counts are almost as high as my total msg count 😂
You never write you never call
I mean, like local said, you're minmaxing for personal satisfaction. Farming a Habsburg Guard for that 3% increase in headshot damage is 100% your decision.
Ic I love you you know that
Awww bless
I neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed itttttt
You can't assume every newer player will invest in minmaxing too like the way you do
I am saying nothing.
Good what I’m about to do to Spider-Man is rated m for mature 🤫
I know but just in general the upgrades in the game are a little too much.
How so
How does the refer a friend work do you just post your link in the channel and then hope that someone clicks on?
Yeah you're right, loot is pointless in a looter shooter.
New players can just run the same 20 missions over and over again or whatever it is PvE players do.
it pretty much is useless. once you do a few Countdown runs, you're set.
I open the game, stare at nothing for 5 minutes or clear Sinkhole two times, check my build and close the game. That's the life of a PvE player.
is scout 10 activity 3 bounties or activities?
bounty
Is it possible to get a c7 blueprint?
Nope 🙃
Farm you must
Is the Journey 5 bugged since my "Maintain Momentum Tier 4 for 180 seconds" isnt going up unless you cant use overdrive?
how yall deal with item space running out do u put stuff on other characters
Where is the best place to target farm for armor pieces. I basically need then all so I just need a fast and easy stream of drops. Maps target loot, coutdown or summit?
Are weapons labeled “high end” exotics?
Sorry i gotta use destiny lingo but its what makes sense to me lol just wondering
High end, Named high end and exotic.
High end are your legendary items, named are like your raid loot type stuff, think fatebringer, they're generally more interesting than your average high end loot and exotics are 1:1 to exotics.
Yeah roughly. Same idea as in destiny. 2 "legendaries" and an exotic.
The level 40 green armor though, it's special. Don't delete on sight. Its all set bonus armor that does different things based on how many pieces you have on. Think Gambit prime armor.
Yeah so I think the "Maintain Momentum tier 4 for 180 seconds" is bugged I cant make any progress in it
You just made this game make 100x more sense to me
Its pretty .75:1 to both warframe and destiny. There are ideas peeled from both that they take about a step further. I got a taste of the pyromaniac eclipse protocol build and incandescent feels like a pale imitation. Let alone ongoing directive, THAT is gyrfalcon's hunter munitions for the whole team.
I actially apprentiate this balance in this game. W Destiny its a ton of paywalls and an extreme amount of grinding, although you are rewarded with powerful builds and combinations. Warframe was too aggressive grind wise for me. This feels nice. A game with endless craft capabilities
That also isnt throwing 500 things at you, while the whole time you dont even understand the whole story or game progression that well
Oh its absolutely throwing 500 things at you, you are just numb to it at this point lol.
As for the story? We aren't here to kill gods or time travel. You play as fed with superpowers. Fairly straightforward lol.
I remember by friends called this the looting dead bc of the atmosphere and tone lol
All of these looters exist in one sort of apocalypse or another.
True point
So there is no way to re-roll 1 bonus on an exotic? You reconfigure and hope for the best with all 3 at once or you can also improve (same bonus higher value) an already existing stat?
The first one; you're randomising the % of all 3, and the 3rd stat along with it.
This games raids have 8 people ?
Yes, like countdown
Ah ok, so the only way to get "dmg to armor" on my LMG is to risk the other 2 75% value stats. Wont risk it in that case
Its dmg to health at like 60% feels good enough for now
if i were to buy the ultimate edition to div 2
it saying as of right now
would i still get BFB expan? makes no sense to me if saying the UE comes with the expan and it not come with it before release when buying the UE prior
- The base game
- Warlords of New York expansion
- Battle for Brooklyn DLC
- 1,000 Bonus Premium Credits
- A level 40 boost, allowing you to jump into the Battle for Brooklyn campaign
- Stash space increase
- All six (6) endgame specializations instantly unlocked
- Eight (8) exclusive missions
- The Battleworn Secret Service Pack
- The First Responder Pack
- The Elite Agent Pack
- One (1) exclusive emote and outfit"```
They've changed the Ultimate Edition.
i know.... that's what i pasted was from. right off the steam store
I'm not sure what your question is, it shows that you get the BfB if you buy the fresh one.
The OG one has been around for 5 years, it wouldn't include the new DLC.
if i were to buy the UE now, which is advertised as what i have posted above, will BFB come with it on launch is what i'm getting at
Is there a reason you are posting this, it's very clear that is the case.
yet it's not on the store for steam? think a pre-order would kind of be set up in place for it?
of all things you seem to not give a straight answer
Right now the pre-order for BfB isn't even up on Ubi-Connect (as of this morning), so I'm still not really sure what you're asking.
If you're asking for an official answer: we are all just volunteers here, we don't have insider info.
so how would buying the UE now give the upcoming dlc?
@gray shore are you trolling bro?
I think it's a translation error, they can not be asking what I think they're asking.
oh ok my fault then
Just to make sure: you know that's what it includes, you said so yourself.
If you have any different issues, feel free to ask, we'll help how we can.
so UE gets a pre-order to BFB? if buying the current state of UE? a lot of people seem to not be getting any indication of any form to the dlc
See reply, re-read as necessary.
so you don't even know?
@elfin hazel You have any idea what's going on?
trolling or eleventeen
i'm just trying to understand it is all. just seems rather changed on the store with nothing to go on from it
eleventy leventy eleven?
lmao
I have no clue because I think at one point they changed it from having any reference to BFB to having none and now it seems to have it again
I have no idea if you'll get it but if you do buy UE now I'd imagine most platforms will be likely to give you a refund if it doesn't give you the DLC when it drops
They changed the Ultimate Edition to be a new version of it, that part is pretty clear.
What I'm unclear on is what exactly they're asking here. Unless it's just another "ubisoft bad" post, which, ugh.
when can you buy Brooklyn DLC?
Literally no one knows yet, but it'll be before the 27th, that's release day.
It does seem like it's cutting it a bit close, so I suspect a delay in release.
Just my 2 cents.
steam store page mentions it as part of the current state of UE is all i'm getting at, which has people confused by all means, i'm not trolling as some may think
if I'm understanding correctly reaper you're confused on how the DLC is listed in the UE but not listed by itself right
I think they're asking why The Ultimate Edition doesn't include it already?
I mean: because 5 years old, is the answer.
check steamstore page under the ultimate edition. my first post was copied right from it
I'm lookin at it
@gray shore you already copied the steam page in here, what are you confused about?
^
if i were to buy the UE state of the game will BFB be there when it releases? or it be something separate due to price change/ increase, which indicates any UE version now is essentially a pre-order to BFB
Yes, you will be able to buy BfB by itself.
i wasn't asking that......
as of right now I would assume you would get the expansion but if you don't I'd imagine steam support would be able to help out
So let me get this perfectly clear, you're asking if you buy the new Ultimate Edition, will you get Battle for Brooklyn, despite having already copy+pasted the info that states you will get Battle for Brooklyn?
L M A O
yet the dlc isn't out
you seem to not be getting it clearly
naaaah that's you brah
tell me, how is getting the UE NOW going to be a for sure grant for when BFB comes out when it's not even in the stores or any sign of pre-order?
@gray shore You tell me.
It's impossible to know.
facts
A true mystery.
so DOES UE mean a form of pre-order to new expansion?
idk what is so hard to understand
I dont know how you guys do it. You are volunteers and I don't think I could be paid to have this conversation
currently yes
@undone hare I mainline tea, it helps.
they'll put the DLC up for sale by itself closer to release
this level of patience is absolutely atrocious
I know special education teachers with less grace and patience
probably the only thing i've gotten close to any form of a answer
You got your answer 10 minutes ago bro.
"Everyone here is a volunteer and doesn't know"
We don't have any more way of knowing than you do. At this point, it's anybody's guess.
not the third mod stepping in
Kettle coming in with the steel chair!
"hit him with the chair!!"
wouldn't you think changing anything on the store would be rather soon to say something is going to be apart of one thing that isn't released yet?
smells like false advertising
there's no way bro
Hah, called it!
i am having a wall banging convo with the mods
nO ONE WILL BLAME YOU GUYS IF YOU GIVE UP
I'd be banging my head harder than that
The majority of headbang gifs are related to concerts, and I feel that doesn't indicate the right tone.
shit you're right
they updated the store after the reveal stream I'd imagine they've had the assets ready for a while
try "head hitting wall"
they seem to of made changes rather early imo
That's just false advertising.
I'd agree it's a bit early for them to update it but I have no reason to believe you won't get the DLC when it comes out
i know ya'll won't know as much as the next person does, we have already discussed that. at least have some forwarding info on the store page to indicate that purchasing now will or will not have the content coming in which has people wondering
i will die with what i said, i think the brain rot is good enough
is there a best thing to farm for XP currently? I'm enjoying the game as is and just playing missions, farming heroic control points etc etc, but I was just wondering maybe to do some XP farmin to get at least my watch to 1000 to get all the sub sections to 50.. I'm close to SHD 400 now.
We have no control over what is shown on the store page
i'm aware, your mods to the game/ discord. not the marketing team
#ask-td2-community message < control points and public executions
there's a 3x exp event tommorow as well so that'll also help you get your SHD up
i'm going to bed, good chat
gn
ooooh nice, thanks for the post link.. tldr on the math behind the checkpoints but that post makes sense.. I've been doing that from time to time anyways so I'm glad I was ok doing it..
I have to say, I'm so happy when someone with ongoing directive comes along .. those hollow point bullets are so magnificent.
someone running ongoing directive makes me want to be a better man 🙂
I have to make OD and HB builds.. they are both so great for utility and still have damage
I will give another shout-out to OD, that build is just good fun to use, and you make your team stronger to boot.
@hybrid ore do you use backpack on your OD build or no? and what do you use for your primary weapon? Carnage?
I use the Memento version, since Solo, although it will also work in groups.
gotcha.. so memento over coyotes.. I see a lot of OD builds using coyotes.
Coyotes is probably better overall, but I'm a little sick of Coyotes.
Centurions holster works well too if you can cope with the regular weapon swapping (use pistol to get both buffs on the same weapon)
I see it on dmg share builds
Where do I get riker's key?
NY sewers
Dont have NY pack
try DC sewers but honestly no idea then.. I found a bunch of them in NY but since you don't have the expansion not sure how they solved that
You probably need to get the blueprint and just craft them, or buy optimisation caches from countdown/season vendors
Well where would he even use the keys?
Actually now that I think about it he’s probably doing a project
Kill named Rikers/bosses, considering you don’t have NYC it’s gonna be a little harder as you’ll only find them in the summit which has a chance to spawn them along with 7 other factions
Is warlords not needed for summit anymore?
likely for the ridgeway project indeed, has been one of the issues that exist for players without wony, as riker keys are basically only easily attainable from NY, the option you have aswell is to recycle a summit boss floor till you get rikers in summit
I can't log in are the servers down?
yep 😭

The scheduled maintenance was 29th if Im not mistaken
this would then be unscheduled maintenance
You are not wrong
play faster
same problem, uniform-01 error I just managed to get in now
get to washington and farm missions and control points.
DZ
Frankly the servers have been hell lately restarts every day
Control points, world activities, idk can you apply directives in 30?
fastest way to lvl is just finding what you enjoy and spamming it
it wouldnt let me in at first, after closing it out and booting back up it let me in, super weird
if you like missions, find a fast mission, spam it til 40
I personally just run around the map doing everything untill i get bored of that, then i go do warlords
The Side missions give a nice chunk of XP as well, it's worth doing those on the backhalf of the 31-40 journey.
Yeah, i usually save warlord until im like, 37ish, that way im 40 super easily by the time of Keener
lots of xp to be had in New York
@humble sparrow There's also the Coney intro mission, DARPA intro, a few like that around.
DZ Landmarks are amazing solo though for sure.
If you hover on a mission and it says "side mission", just do that and you'll get a huge chunk.
Yeah, Pentagon is great for xp too. I usually forget about those until im 40 and remember to grab them so i can see their target farms lol
Oh this isn't even Pentagon itself, you get points for just unlocking it.
same as Coney.
Once i start spam farming mules up, i will probably pay more attention to what gives fastest xp lol.
Better get a move on, they're dead in about 26 days.
Well, the resource aspect of them is.
they changing the scavenging from watch?
i havent been following pts stuff, so im in the dark
the tl;dr is that you will no longer get duplicate Scav Poiints, it'll be properly shared.
it's no longer shared between all characters
ah, guess it makes sense with the lvl 40 skip coming
yeah, they said it's for the new players that join the game to hop right to the end game if they want to, instead of running from lvl 1 to 30 or 30 to 40
other way round, the watch points were not shared between each character and you could get full amount on a new alt, now it is account wide and because of that shared, so spending on one watch point spends it at the account level
yeah been farming new characters to get all my materials up to max in preparation for it
anyone else experiencing delta's with div 2 today? Not sure if it's the servers or my internet provider.
Good morning, can you please point me to a place where I can look at some good builds to get inspired?
check the pinned messages in #td2-build-advice, there's a spreadsheet with a bunch of good builds
Thanks
many big youtubers have an unfortunate tendency to overstate the power of 'their' builds in order to get more videos out and more clicks
Yes, every build they come up with is 'meta' , thats why I asked here instead
Bottom dollar that the YTer said that Tip of The Spear was meta.
can someone tell me where the safe house is on downtown west?
i think there was no safehouse but i forgot it
only a laptop or?
the st.elmo striker build is good
just Campus, no safehouse. There's a laptop off to the side somewhere (west side I think) with that area's liberation project
ahh so i was right
ok thank you 🙂
Does anyone else keep getting delta 03 these last few days, I can't play anymore and it's not my internet.
a friend had this for a long time
he reinstalled it and worked for him
Was he on PC?
yes
I find it interesting indeed.. I'm farming countdown for a good AR.. and most people are running Striker.. I've seen a couple of Umbras and Virtuoso but very few ODs.. that's so strange..
OD is perfect for countdown
Striker is really nice for its sheer killing power, a few OD's around is nice, but you really don't need full teams of them.
totally get it.. I just found it interesting that I'm yet to find a team that has at least one...I guess you can't blame people, they want that striker easy DPS.
that's one of the reasons I want to run it too.. it's nice solo but buffs the team nicely too
it's not "that" much weaker than striker when OD starts
until it's BT or Warhound related objectives
then you kneecap the warhound and get more ammo back
since all variations can be staggered
Higher health enemies generally makes it more difficult to maintain OD bonuses, when you use up your bleed ammo you lose a lot of damage. Hunters especially will be a problem if you don't have decent backup.
I prefer a foamer in heroic CD and everyone else DPS
Or maybe a healer for extraction
But it's mm with randoms you go with what you got
I have never done these 3x exp bonus events but is it for battle pass exp regular shd lvls exp or both?
@gentle canyon SHD Levels.
There's separate ones for the Season Pass, Conflict, etc.
which one starts today?
Ooo I need to get on the SHD level one
also is there an event calender anywhere? other than just seeing it in game?
It's best to use the ingame one, as MSV are prone to changing the dates of things.
I have no idea which one is on today, but from the conversations people have been having on here, I'd bet that it's the SHD XP one.
3x shd exp for the weekend, starts tomorrow
Rivens, if I were a mod, I'd give you a commendation with how patient you were with that Reaper guy. You answered the same question five different times 💀
Just started the manhunt for kelso. Week 1, scout 1, activity 3 just has binary shit and 0/20. What am I supposed to do for this??
||seeker mine kills||
Your best.
Fun Fact: I just got the Sleigher from a loot goblin. I didn't think they dropped outside of December.
You're the best thank you. How am I supposed to figure that out on my own?
does it help to have AR as targeted loot when farming Bighorn?
I think so
Plug it into a binary code thing or mess with your equipment till it counts up
I dont have it I just think setting targeted loot to what you want you'll get more exos of that type. set it to LMGs and got like 2 bluescreens in a day
I tried a binary thing it just said "objective hint"
Mind you they were the only exos i got that day
I still gotta do 1 more activity in East Mall for the 2nd of Scout 1
Am I wrong in thinking the Big Horn is locked behind an activity? A raid or something? Or can you get it to drop in Countdown if you have it already?
It looks like Legendary Strongholds/Missions from the bosses at a 5% drop
did the easter event end? because i am still getting egg drops but i don't see the project like i did for the winter event
Its been over for a bit now its the hollywood event rn
does the banshee pulse still work fine with the striker build?
no
it's always 5% from legendary named
Did anyone else just crash?
Is the master mission next week
ye
😔
Then 3 weeks of waiting after that
how am i still getting eggs then?
Cause you're eggcellent
true
i see someone asked the same thing, seems like it only gets reset on maint so maybe i can still do it
I just picked up the game a couple days ago so I've no clue
another question, i am getting a season pass exp bonus of 20%, i think it was from buying the season pass bundle but i didn't see anything about a bonus?
I just gotta get my SHD up
last time i was playing i noitced a 10% bonus when i bought the bundle
not sure what is causing it
Enjoy it while you can ig lol
Ez W
fr
is no one else getting this bonus? lol
i tried googling around about it and couldn't find anything very odd
Maybe you're just him 🤷♂️
Beat ya to it
how do i get exotic loot? i’ve been playing on heroic difficulty and still haven’t gotten any exotic drops, only way i can get them is by playing priority missions, manhunt and through the season pass opening crates. but missions i only get gold drops
That just seems like bad luck
It's just rng bro
they are not very common. but usually bosses and such.
You're not gonna get them to drop back to back to back to back. It'll only happen every once in a while. If you're looking for something specific, try Countdown or Summit for TL. I typically get a few every ten runs or so.
bruh first time actually doing something after a month and it crashes
That's just the console experience, mate.
I actually hate this new manhunt 'puzzle' format. Instead of just doing the thing I have to sit here with a guide to interpret what I need to do.
wait why tf is the chameleon labeled an assault rifle its a super modded kriss vector
Like, what am I even supposed to do with that? Do they expect me to know binary or to sit here typing that into something to decode it?
Cause its like the V308 in Siege and just made up
Yeah
Hey guys, so I have finally opened Tinkering. Any advice before I waste my materials and F-up everything lol
I don't think you can really F it up anymore?
Just save stuff you wanna save, overwrite till its max level
The library doesn't like use up
can i link to my friends twitch somewhere? Hes streaming Div2 now
it's a vector modded to fire 5.56, it wouldn't make sense to pick up .45 ACP or 9mm off from dead enemies
sad the city rat uniform is one whole piece
Has there been any response from the devs about the mule change backlash?
Need more Lootcifer sacrifices if you want more favorable rng.
I hear a tier 6 stinger hive dropped during countdown extraction can work wonders.
🔥 😈 🔥
What backlash?
Dumb question but is Divison region locked? Can I play with someone in the UK if Im in the US?
Not region locked, but you may need to be invited. Matchmaking usually wont mix regions too much. CD is a lot mor flexible tho
What do you mean overwrite?
ty my g
Every time you finish a grind/your bag is full, you should:
- See if anything you picked up is what you want. Only save it if you are going to make a build with it this week.
- See if any library stats can be improved
- Donate junk to expertise
- Profit
How do I donate a weapon to expertise?
I saw a video where the guy marked his weapon as junk and then donated at desk. Do you mean that?
Mark everything you arent keeping as junk, under expertise hold X
Expertise on tinkering desk?
Yes
Hit i, then m
Yeah that. I guess there is a desk but it easier to go through your inventory
I wouldn't save anything that cant be recalibrated perfect. Max optimizations should be 2 or less for perfect. If it's not a unicorn and doesnt fit that criteria, junk it
That too. Dont save things that will eat up resources for optimization or recalibration. Its way easier to run a few rounds of countdown and get a better roll
I am sure other people have other methods, but this is mine:
If I am working on a build, like I recently put together a hotshot build, I will run countdown until I get all the pieces I want with great or better rolls. The whole time I am junking/donating what I don't want to expertise/dismantling for parts. Once I have all my armor pieces, I will then go after any guns I want, same thing.
Then I will reset the CP on the map, and use that build to clear them all for more expertise/recalibration mats if I can, if it is specialized I will just use a build that can clear them quickly so I can get what I need.
The whole time recalibrating/optimizing as needed.
Rinse and repeat forever, because this is a looter shooter. But now is a good time to get a lot of that kind of stuff done before the DLC drops.
I assume that with the new DLC and going to level 50, we will also get another level of library? So you might not want to focus too hard on that if you haven't really started, because your lv30 and 40 library won't do a whole lot of good once you get the lv50 one?
Probably?
no level 50 mate
Also another stupid question, can you level up a weapon? I have a level 20 weapon and now u am level 26, can I levelup my level 20 weapon?
Also the way I understand, deconstructing a gear is same as marking it as a junk? Is there any difference?
no
Why is it that overwriting a loadout works like 1/3 of the time? Is there anything I can do to make it work consistently?
Expertise is the 'level 50'. I dont forsee a level jump... power creep is already built into the system
Hit r multiple times
So my level 1 ruthless is junk? Lol
no, deconstruction is literally tearing up items to get materials and marking as Junk just leaves them highlighted as Junk to donate to Expertise (lvl40) or to deconstruct later
yes
Really? Why do you think I said 1/3 of the time, implying I already am hitting R multiple times. Nor does it answer my question
Hello guys .Is someone kind to point me toward what seti should farm for a decent dz build?
considering playing smg/ar/lmg or sg idk but idk what set to farm
man are exotic sidearms any good? got the mosqito from a cache
Most have their own niche, liberty for shield builds, regulus for headshot builds, busy little bee if you want to buff your own damage, mosquito is a weird aggro and debuff
The last two are less of something you build around for and more as to buff other stuff
Can someone point me in the direction of a good demolitionist build that is rapid fire friendly and easy to play and gear and build?
Striker using the demolitionist spec
is there a website that tracks what vendors are selling? i seem to recall that being a thing
yes 
thank you agent 🙏
I think it has to do with mouse moving during save. I rarely see it happen personally... understanding that its bugged is as far as you need to know anyways. Unless you gonna apply to massive, then you just need to know easiest way to bypass the issue, which is exactly what I provided 💯
-# points to mortar build guide in the sheet 
Pinned spreadsheet #td2-build-advice
Mortar isnt an easy to use setup, but it's dope af. You can run demo on dps like striker as well tho. The sheet has it all
come on localmortar stop dragging people into Mortar Supremacy 
Every agent turned to mortar is one less agent using ninja. Your welcome 🍻
so pro
are those vendors the ones in the settlements?
yes the 3rd line says what vendor its being sold at
Are classified assignments only year 1 pass activities
If so, would buying it level me up to 30? Bc i actually wanted to grind to 30 for Warlords then play that to get to 40
- Yes
- No
I think it's like a voucher for 30 like you can optionally do it
Great to know, didnt wanna skip the grind at all honestly
oh i din't notice that! thank you 😊🙏
god i wish summit actually matchmaked
is anyone else not able to matchmake for countdown rn?
my shit doesnt matchmake at all so
same
wanted to grind some striker pieces
but the matchmaking dont work
on challenging?
yeah
it just never actually finds other players
i've never had a problem until about an hour ago
heh, Ninja bike mortar
Am I too old to understand slag or is that a slur? Cuz it feels like a slur.
roasted? kinda
No the other dude who was definitely using a slur and also too dumb to spell it right.
If you're new then you should go for:
Memento - bag
St elmos engine - AR
Coyote's mask
Catharsis - mask
In no particular order*
I want that ar! Also aiming for good sub
Quiznos is my favorite
I mostly use high end smgs.
For hunters fury pretty much any smg with killer or perfect killer (dark winter, dz exclusive) talent works.
I only use 5 Exotics, Coyotes, Vile, Memento, Bullet King, St Elmos
Sorry, 6, Pestilince
I didn't mention vile bc status are kinda niche, although it cleans
. But yeah I forgot about pestilence.
A lot of exotics you really need to have a build in mind for them. Coyote, Elmos, and Memento are like the only plug and play ones. Maybe Chatterbox?
chatterbox is fun
Iron Lung is also very nice
Chatterbox it's from a project.
I forget iron lung has been added to the general loot pool...
During specific events, Sweet Dreams is a lot of fun
Especially when you need those melee kills
I guess the point is, go after what you think looks fun. Theres like 3 "meta" exotics and everything else is style
A lot of exotics are quite good now
is there anyway i can get the turmoil kneepads anymore?
no
do you know any other good kneepads then?
many, depends on your build
im pure dmg
alr thank you
I got 2 of them when I bought the Ultimate edition 3 or so weeks ago. Not sure if they gave it to me because of Ultimate edition or it was just RNG from starting the game from scratch. But I got 2 of them max rolls and Pestilience.
-# sorry in advance for useful spam
Grand Washington Hotel is invaded this week.
Perfect week to start the Nemesis project, or get that blueprint you been waiting for.
After you get the Tidal Basin piece , change mode for invaded stronghold back to invaded. Complete again for another nemesis piece (stronghold dependent). With any 2 pieces in hand set GWH back to invaded and the blueprint will drop. Nemesis can be farmed from Marksman Rifle Target Loot after that, regardless of project completion.
seeing this just reminded me i accidentally scrapped a Vile earlier
out of curiosity am I able to continue my xbox save if i buy this on pc?
no
thats a shame but thanks for answering
Is there a question where I ask questions or do I just ask here?
I was just gonna ask if the games crossplat
Aww that sucks:(
div3 will probably have crossplay/cross-save but it won't come out in like 5 years or more
I'm honestly surprised they're releasing a dlc. So maybe. If we're lucky in 2-3 years
Since we get the dlc in a month I hope it comes soon because the dryness of content since new york was insane.
There's no way you are trying that little with the rage-bait.
try harder lil bro
is there a list somewhere that shows what difficulty lvl gets you which amount of exp per activity?
It and a bunch of other info are 📌 pinned over in #ask-td2-community and #td2-build-advice, GL Agent 
ah thank you
Why does it feel like the diamondback has noticeably worse weapon handling than the 1886? Am I alone in noticing this?
When you say "weapon handling", what are you referring to? Because it's a set of 4 defined stats in div2.
Doe anyone play on laptop and use an external monitor? I can play the game perfectly fine on my laptop. If I swap to my monitor I get about 30 fps. I can play other game just fine, but Division 2 for whatever reason I get horrendous frame rate.
Not talking the "weapon handling" stat itself*, but the actual feel of shooting, reloading, aiming - It feels like the 1886 just operates more smoothly, I feel like I miss more with the diamondback, have a slightly more difficult time getting the target in crosshairs, shooting doesn't feel as fluid, and reloading feels worse. Thing is, stats-wise (aside from reload), it should feel the other way around compared to the 1886. But maybe the gun is just bugged or maybe it's just me, idk
I just got the bighorn is it only good in pvp?
no
Well it's an okayish gun in PvE
@woven tundra thanks clear and concise
its not bad nor top tier but its i use it on striker in pvp and pve

Finally found a ninja. Satisfying!
In the vendor beside Decent, I saw we could buy Accuracy/Cric chance/cric dmg etc with NSA tech, does this apply only for decent or on my overall stats for the game?
just Descent
anyone know if you can get the catharsis mask without having the blueprint from summit?
In which build do you use catharsis mask? I happen to have 3 and have never used it lmao
i need it for my bighorn build lol
Anyway I could give one of mine to you? lol
you cant, we have to be in the same group when you got it
unless you plan on helping me get it from summit and dropping it then
I would love to
Hope our timezones are similar so that we can maybe catch up in the game sometime?
i'll dm you
I never defeated nemesis as well, would want to someday 😢
Hi to all I have a few exotics would like to get some more good ones, I'm still battling with the nemesis need one part still waiting for invaded to appear is there anyone who is willing to help me out to get some of the other ones much appreciated
What’s the best way to get tactical assessment blueprints farming CP?
At what point is your crafting bench gold?
Im lvl38 in ny having done dc. Its a been a while since i last did the full run and cannt recall when the bench is fully upgraded
Push to 40
I thought it would happen in dc
Lvl 40 now I think, you have to pay to upgrade it though
Yes ok. They change it?
Lvl 30 used to be the cap. Now its 40
Yeah, when they did the One Endgame update
not wony when the level cap was raised to 40?
or you talking it staying purple until level 40 since the endgame update?
WONY raised the cap but only if you bought the DLC, if you didnt you were stuck at 30
Until one endgame made it 40 for all
Yeah this. You could get it to yellow at lvl 30 before
yeah, i realize that part
just not sure about the bench upgrade part. and wondering if kettle meant it staying purple until 40 since the one update thing was implemented
Hey i have a question so basically skills in the game can have upgraded it on it ? How do I get them just wondering
like from expertise upgrades?
No like the slots on the skills like the shield and turrent those skills I mean
ah, the skill mods?
Yes
look for a mission or open world you don't mind running around in with Skill Mod Target Loot
other wise, summit/countdown you can set to skill mods and just filter through what you want/need
group game mode
you can run it on normal solo if you're upto it
but challenging is probably best to stick with as you'll hardly get booted
Not recommended for solo, best just matchmake on challenging
I have a striker build i should be fine to go higher but thank you
For letting me know
don't use things like assault turret or drone in there as they'll get hacked and people will be angry with you
So I see we’re back to crappy server connections again. I thought y’all had stopped that mess? What, your engineers bored and decided to mess with the NA servers?
Nothing like being in the middle of a firefight and everyone just stops shooting because oh, yet another delta error telling me servers aren’t available.
it'd be amazing if UBI employees read these, but most of the people here are gamers like you who can't do much about division 2 things aside imparting knowledge that helped them
Oooh there’s one I haven’t seen before. Mike-01 error.
I was told people hate that stuff
Who is waiting for gta 6
Gee it would be a shame if all of us decided to give UBI the bird and stop playing for six weeks.
Just peel off en masse
No chance with the dlc dropping this month
doubt it'd do much. you paid for the game already so they got their money out of your wellet already
Million users gone in a day. There’d be emergency board meetings on how to stop the player base from hemorrhaging and it would come right back to their servers being shit.
Only one more year to go! (Maybe)
plot twist so much hype for it they pull an ubi game and cancel it (> <)
Love it when their server crashes so hard I have to restart my ps4
But I’m super sure it’s my Internet connection, right? Not the fact that Ubi’s NA servers are shit
guessing you weren't around when players were litereally DDOSing their servers?
It’s never their fault. Naturally. Psh. I should have just formed my own game company. Then I could deliver shit tier products and blame the customers when they complain.
Yea more delays
Ten minutes and counting to try to get back in
It takes 10 minutes for your console to restart?
let the ps4 go
You hear that, UBI? It’s the sound of players finding other games that don’t take ten minutes to load in and finding better games that don’t treat their customer base like shit
@finite cradle Okay, calm down.
Between restarting and relaunching and relogging in and getting a stable game up and running, I’d say yeah, about ten minutes
That might as well be forever in game terms when other games take 2-3 minutes tops
do u have a ssd?
try getting a ssd it will help ur load times
They are counting finding a group in that, which, honestly, if it only took me 10 minutes in most games to find a group with my internet, I would be setting off fireworks.
That’s on the list. I was going to take it to UBrealIFix and have them clean it out and put in a new SSD. I’m thinking of getting 1 or 2 terabyte SSD or whatever will fit. Something huge so I don’t have to see an error pop up about needing more storage ever again lol
what is happening, why i am seeing all the reddit posts of their characters being gone?
i imagine they're quitting div 2 over the scavenging points change
No i mean them logging in to not be able to select their own characters.
And sending tickets to ubisoft. And those posts are rapidly layering up
Maybe more server problems
Bingo.
Well like i said i think thousand times: online only games my ass.
i know PTS had a moment where you logged in your stuff in stash went poof, gave me a heart attack XD
Maybe 120,000 a year is too much for engineers to be paid to deliver bad servers…?
Hey its armchair dev time.
Maybe they should just make the games offline. No more server issues, no characters being deleted and stuff.
want some popcorn with me Rivens?
It's been a while since we had one of these.
Who wants to say "i could do it better" first?
It’s doesn’t take a genius to figure out that if your servers aren’t stable, it’s probably not going to matter to players that your store is chock full of new outfits.
Michael it is!
I am just afraid that one day i will log in and will see that my character is gone due to how rapidly it is happening currently
Oh the Days Gone treatment…?
I doubt MSV are going the route of that nutbar.
if they were, division 2 and other division stuff in the future would've gone poof already
If they were, half the characters in the current plot wouldn't exist, but I digress.
The only thing that I ever ask for every time is less focus on store vanity items and more money and effort on platform stability.
That's multiple things.
so expert how do you suppose they get funds to work on stability? @finite cradle
Take the engineers and devs making cheeky sweater vests for the store and reassign them to debugging the servers.
See, this is why the armchair dev times are special.
you get out of the box suggestions like assigning graphical designers to stability issues.
would you be willing to work there for free? @finite cradle
Maybe next we can get a Coles cashier to run Goldman Sachs.
Stop wasting money on vanity items until the servers are stable. Players don’t really care if their pants are red or blue.
Even graphical designers know basic code protocol. Therefore they would be fine doing debugging work.
How are you going to work for UBI and have no coding experience but be a graphic designer?
If you think people don't care what their fashion looks like, you haven't been playing games for very long.
No that’s not quite what I meant
I mean that vanity should take a back seat to playability and stability
hmm, i say the posts in #divashion says differently about people not caring about colored pants and clothing
Nothing says "I don't understand large scale coding" quite like saying if they throw more people at the problem it will be solved faster.
Only THEN can you add back the vanity items. Don’t keep throwing vanity items up while the servers are crashing in an attempt to distract the players
@undone hare I think "the people who design vanity items should do stability issues" says it quite succinctly.
Trion did that with Defiance and took a great game and bankrupted it into shutting down
what is best way to get most of this x3 exp thing if you dont have pre-farmed bounties thing?
I'mma send that one to a friend of mine who actually does design vanity items.
Control Points
@waxen kettle What gengar said, there's a guide 📌 pinned over in #ask-td2-community
“Oh, servers aren’t stable? That must mean it’s time to release that new pink tutu players have been hankering for!”
You can farm certain ones that you know you can do faster by just constantly resetting them
please do and give us their feed back (> <)
Why waste money on dev time for vanity items if the servers for the vanity items aren’t even stable enough to support said items?
My best friend has a computer science Masters Degree and I admit I was also this ignorant a while ago, but when Helldivers started having massive problems I asked him to explain to me why certain things were happening and now I get it.
Because it's not the same people, this isn't a difficult concept to grasp
And selling vanity items us what pays for the people doing work on game stability
"Why sell things when we could instead not sell things and then we would have oodles of money for Dev Time for bugs instead!"
It's fun to see people who "don't get it" that actually learn to "get it" every now and then, which is about the reason why anyone engages with this bored old topic anymore.
I freely admit I know nothing about development. I get it’s not the same people. You don’t hire painters for a house when the foundation isn’t sound. You report the foundation and then proceed.
*repour
We could tell
Nah leave it as report, thats more accurate to some of the lines I've seen here today.
what your saying doesn't sound like you totally understand though?
It seems like vanity items before server stability are putting the cart in front of the horse.
The cart does go in front of the horse.
Man, the Amish have been way off the whole time 🤣
it was a train joke...nvm. I'm wasted here.
Why does the game looks so bright and weird on full screen but on windowed it looks a lot better wtf
Also, lets not pretend like this game is a giant buggy mess.
It is 6 years old, boots and runs perfectly fine, and occasionally you run into a server crash (not something the Devs can control typically anyway, fwiw) or one off glitch that rebooting fixes.
The painters are already employed and working in this analogy though, so they might as well go on painting while leaving the foundations to builders who actually know how to do that
Wished there's a glitch that gave me 10x experience points..
If you are really experiencing crashes that are horribly affecting game play, you might want to look at your hardware.
If the walls keep failing down, why keep the painters around?
Because you want to hire them to fix the walls, apparently.
if one cropped up it'd be insta patched
I run it on a ps4. Otherwise, I’d be running it on a 3090Ti.
This new building analogy is even more fun because it shows that he doesn't understand contracting work either
I know. Still wish for it though.
Crashes on PC used to be really bad but I haven't crashed in months
They've gone a long way stability wise
can I get a squad to run so i can get the eagle bearer?
takes time to rehire and retrain new ones, and they are still doing useful work regardless
Wouldn’t it be better to prevent the walls from falling in the first place?
I'm just picturing sideshow bob stepping on rakes lol
LFG raid is your friend or i heard GCRock discord does these things
@tired dove ^
Tangent: 3rd character reached Lv. 40.
More server related than game related, but what is people's obsession with having single punctuation marks as a nickname?
They're just going to get changed.
Probably just a troll or someone being edgy, perhaps.
Stop being edgy. You’re frightening the children.
Also, didn't know we could stack more than 9999 items via merging.
you can but you won't be able to pick up any more, so it's often better to just hold off buying the shared resources option until you actually need it
@sour void You'd think so, right? But there's literally dozens of them.
the ones with tags next to their name are extra weird.
Third reason (though unlikely) is that they could be bot, or bot-compromised accounts.
Discord has been lousy with either as of late.
Under less time sensitive circumstances, I would, but given that mules are about to go extinct come 05/27... yeah...
Still, you terminate one and there's two more waiting in the wings. Until the source can be found and pulverized by a kinetic energy munition, it's likely that more will find their way in.
Of course, we see dozens every day, on average.
thankfully they're all pretty dumb and the filter helps.
I'll take that silver lining.
(Honestly, they're probably just a little less annoying than Outcast Rushers, which says plenty)
The good thing about Rushers is that if you shoot them in the knees, they stumble a little.
I can't do that with spammers, too much paperwork.
I hear logic bombs work wonders against spammers.
I meant the non-bots 😉
Oh, they work on both types. Just like Raid insecticide.
I jest. In any case, time to go grind again.
can you get a matador from a named item cache?
y
Yes
Friendly Tip, because somehow I overlooked it:
The Tactician Drone counts as a scanner for Reaper Scan, Journey Mission 6 "Use Reaper Scan to mark and eliminate hostiles"
nods works great apparently with Microwave Coils to boot
I thought I was going to have to come back to it becasue I am grinding control points and then I realized my kill count had jumped up 20
I really need to finish the final Journey.
same here, but i can't will myself to do it
O_O
rude! i wasn't finished reading it!
Just saw a strange post
What the hell? Lol okay then.
Was that not a spam bot?
I finished to read it
I smelled spam bot.
I dont think i insulted anyone in that post.
And that poped out of thin air
It was a proper post
Reading it in the log, it sure seems like a spam bot.
You should check your password.
nah, was more like criticizing us for criticizing people criticizing easy fixes
Just not in the mood of was they were talking about
i am not criticizing anyone but how the game/product is presented to us/the costumer.
We do wear many hats.
Agreed a lot of player don't seem to understand the massive job that's updating the game
i didn't get to read it fully so i couldn't tell exactly was said. just it seemed more like a criticism of sorts
It was just the normal "no one gets it but me" junk.
wut?
Not exactly breaking new ground.
But it's not their job and they can express their discontent as customer
so, rivens your graphic designer friend come back with any feedback?
I am not trying to break any new ground with that.
They live in australia and have a proper sleeping pattern, so no lol
ah lol XD
And i really don't get the "no one understands me but me" sentiment which was not even there. I was not talking about myself whatsoever
EDIT: Now i read it really badly my mistake, you were saying other thing
If you want to post another "game ded" post, I suggest the community server instead.
That place has more of a free-for-all attitude to content.
so true
I am not saying the game is dead, wut?
I hate the game dead people, they can go away
i crack up on their statements
i'm like ok dead game to you, what are you here for exactly?
Fake internet points, I always assume.
It makes them feel better after getting curb stomped 4 games in a row on Call of Duty
The game is pretty much alive, so again i really don't ... what are you even saying? I was talking how i don't understand why game having server problems is online only, that has like nothing to do with me saying that the game is dead.
Cognitive Dissonance or smthing
you're behind our conversation and confusing yourself at this point
Anyways...
Mortar Supremacy
is the best build in game... prove me wrong 
I should be winning with my 5090 and my 9800x3D
'deck keeps spelling "old backfire" wrong.
I thought he was reacting towards my post that was deleted
Can’t beat the algorithm my friend
nope, nothing comes to mind
Skill build, boriiing
You spelled exotic component wrong 
Fr
npcs can't shoot you if they're busy roll dodging your mortars (> <)
I made a mortar build without mortar because I wanted to play with grenade
It is a funny junk
I made a grenade build back when cooler was broken and it was super fun
for me though i tacked on cesar's guard for perfectly skilled. almost constant seeker spamming so it's fun watching them roll left, roll right then roll left again
Cluster /oxi supremacy?
nah, cluster mortar
You need to run that with btsu/hive. It's really solid
Reaper Scan, Microwave Coils, Rigged Battery, Hotshot, Dread Edict. EZ.
too lazy to try and farm up a 2nd grupo skill/status effect piece
Though Grenade really need some love
Not needed. It's an extra mil or so but still viable without
can't argue with that honestly. thought collector would've brought them out but nothing 😭
The main problem is the fact grenade are linked to speciality
The best grenade (aka Cluster) doesn't fall into the best speciality (aka mortar)
And also that grenade doesn't drop much
nods with the whole "specialization rework" i was hoping it'd be something we can put a point in for whatever grenades we want but yeah got scrapped 😢
Correction: delayed without a future date.
oh? thought i read or heard it was scrapped?
livestream info, etc.
IIRC the priority order was: skills first, then that stuff.
I keep my grenade build for that futur 
Pretty sure one of the lives said it wasnt on the radar anymore
probably the livestream i missed if that was mentioned y7s1
