Hello

[sullen viper]

yo

Can i make the camera further away from the player character

[south topaz]

In photo mode yes

[fervent cipher]

Police navidad

How many exotics did y'all get? I got alot (2 beacons, and chatterboxes, 1 EB, ouroborous, nemesis, and uhhh 2 liberties)

[thin oasis]

You can increase field of view, but that only increases the viewing angle not the distance from player

[west berry]

I wish all agents merry Christmas 🎄

[sullen viper]

i was doing the sumit on pc last night but even with matchmaking nobody joined

sucks that there arent more players

[west berry]

It’s Christmas evening and a lot of agents are spending their time with their Family.

[sullen viper]

ok so

[wraith locust]

Family?

[sullen viper]

i was just doing the summit

and then suddenly got pulled out into someones game

[short pumice]

Iam getting delta 4 error code does anyone know why?

[pastel lake]

div2 players have families? that's crazy

[daring junco]

lol

anyone having problems with the game not loading teleports to control points been loading for 30 minutes now :/

[hollow hill]

play on 1920x800. it will increase your FOV

the game will render a wider screen, which wont change the distance the camera is from your character but itll render more on the horizontal scale (black bars will be at the top and bottom of the screen). i personally play 1920x800 instead of 1920x1080

[alpine canyon]

Can anyone confirm if the soldier bug bundle is still available or how to get this outfit?

[unique bramble]

Happy Halloween agents 👻🎃

[hollow hill]

happy easter

[sterile ferry]

the cosmetic bundles in the shop now are: Holiday, United in The Division, Holiday Capy, Yeti and Open Fire

[wide perch]

is the krampus farm still working, tried the logout thing but the bounty just disappeared

[hollow hill]

the krampus slaves are on a 10m cooldown per appearance. as for the bounty, you have to manually cancel the bounty

[south topaz]

start bounty in normal>kill all minions>collect keys>die without killing the boss>repeat from start

[green badge]

Still works. Don't kill boss. TP back to Boo, sort loot, activate bounty, tp back to fallen cranes, if 10 mins has past, Krampus squad spawns from alley, kill those, then proceed to bounty. Rinse and repeat.

[wild gate]

anyone on pc need a raid drop, still have a eb, regulus, and two ouros i havent picked up yet

need this stuff gone lmao

[south topaz]

they gotta be in ur group when they drop to ground or u can't share them, anyway if somebody need raid drop i have lots of keys to open caches 😁

[wild gate]

yeah, lost a couple ouros and a regulus that way

still have like 40 some keys to burn though

[south topaz]

guess i'll not redeem the keys eventually (if nobody wants any drop) and hope devs made some coding error and next event i starts with current left over keys xD

[fallen marten]

Ugh— good afternoon, Chooms

[fluid junco]

Im not gonna lie I need some friends 2 play this with so anyone new or old at the game wanna play with me im about 2 do Jefferson trade center

Oh and merry Christmas everyone

[thin oasis]

#lfg-xbox and also #td2-clan-recruitment try to find a clan to play with

[fluid junco]

Thxs

[limber viper]

Hi can anyone share the raid exotics from winter event if possible am on xbox ty in advance

[tender wave]

It's only possible to share items if they drop while you're in the same group as the other person. I'd recommend asking in #lfg-xbox for people to farm keys and open boxes in a group so you can all share items together.

[green badge]

Hi @south topaz was offering earlier. Maybe try catching up with him

[shut sable]

can anyone speed level me im on pc ive played the game many times just need boosting please

[small frost]

Do it with someone at CP4 sleeping giant. But it gets boring. I leveled up a few with the 5x exp today but with directives active it’s hard 😂

[limber viper]

OK ty for the information appreciated

[small frost]

is there any crucial point in leveling up? i leveled a few levels up and got extremely bored so i went back to sleep lol. we had heavy rain and tiny bit of thumder at 3am and it kept me up lolol

[edgy fable]

Watch levels

Some ppl also think its cool to be SHD 40k+

[small frost]

i sincerely applaud on dedication because that is honestly gruesomely boring lmao. im just doing the grind to loot farm for proficiency, that's it

[edgy fable]

Many ways to cheese levels over the years, some still aren't fixed

[small frost]

i'd honestly keep farming sleeping giant but the directives get me killed easily 😭 but hotshot did do a solid for me though

i actually play better with hotshot once determined kicks in but i use my 1887 first before bringing out the m700C (for closer distance)

[edgy fable]

I like to alternate between OW events and CPs while watching a show on another screen. Makes it less brain numbing

[small frost]

What’s OW?

[edgy fable]

Open world

Specifically PEs (Public Executions) but anything in my way does it

[small spear]

overwatch

[tender dock]

You’re a chromed corpo, stop posing

[small frost]

i heard overwatch too lmfao

[fallen marten]

<< Overwatch! Aye Aye! >>

[fallen marten]

Lmao noooo, I’m a streetkid, buddy

[small frost]

i hopped around before settling on D2

it's not call of duty but it's the best fps/3rd person atm. i even tried ghost warrior but i enjoy d2's gameplay a lot more

[fallen marten]

Ghost Warrior? You mean Ghost Recon?

[runic wren]

Possibly Sniper Ghost Warrior

but yeah most likely GR since SGW is a totaly different gameplay than TD

[fallen marten]

That’s the one I played once- the first one that is-

It was very boring, even for when I got it as a kid.

[terse wadi]

i don't know how to report

[edgy fable]

Google is your friend. You can either do that in-game or via support ticket

Make sure to record video clips as proof

[toxic lily]

I like how the green square patch the hunters have was actually Tactical Purpose Equipment. That's it lol

[bleak zodiac]

Can you re roll the big horn to dmg to targets out cover ?

As I’ve re rolled like 30 times now and nothing and idk if I’m being unlucky or

[lunar hare]

yes

[terse wadi]

thx

[bleak zodiac]

Thx

[limpid jewel]

Is the houndsman outfit still obtainable or no?

[alpine canopy]

this winter event is dope asf

[warped fjord]

man its kinda annoying whenever u do descent, and the choosey tablet on the walls just doesnt wanna be interacted to

so u gotta like restart the whole damn thing

[small frost]

It’ll take a long time but depends on RNG

[edgy fable]

No. Maybe it'll make a return somehow one day

[halcyon rapids]

Rageeeeee fix the delta omg

[pastel lake]

random thought, but why does it seem ppl don't use their signature weapons in higher difficulties?

I like using them from time to time, even if they don't kill everything sometimes..

[edgy fable]

Crossbow is good, the Tac50 with sniper build is good. But not really needed

[pastel lake]

I barely see ppl using any signature weapon, so I was kinda curious

[real moth]

A lot of the time they deal less damage than your regular guns.

There are definitely cases where some of them can be good (mainly Tac-50), but the taking out animation can leave you vulnerable.

[runic wren]

the only one I use is the TAC 50 to remove helmets

[pastel lake]

I honestly think it's very satisfying to use 'em, not just the sniper but all of them

[edgy fable]

And Xbow to break chunga armor

[real moth]

Tac is good to shoot multiple Targets in a row, The minigun deals decent dps, but the swap animation is annoying and you can't use a shield with it. Crossbow to break chungas is fine when you're on a support build, but on a dps build it's often faster to just shoot a mag into him. Grenade Launcher is fine as long as you can hit a bunch of people (like a spawn). Flamethrower and Rocket Launcher are pretty underwhelming.

I think the main issue is the swap animation, which means you have to use it proactively rather than reactively.

[small frost]

depends on your play style. i always used my tac 50

[pastel lake]

yeah the rocket launcher is underwhelming, but I love the flamethrower ngl

[pastel lake]

my playstyle is pretty much "run 'n gun", or just random bullshit

there's not really anything special about it

[small frost]

then i wouldn't use tac50; it's not a run and gun style. couldn't even quickscope if you wanted to

[final vortex]

hello

[pastel lake]

I was using the Tac yesterday, it might be kinda weird but it worked surprisingly well

[iron tide]

do you get better chance of rewards if you have donated 30 keys?

[lunar hare]

no

[iron tide]

just had bad luck then

had 10 keys no lex no bell no oro no egl just a chatterbox ohcarol and 2 libs

[jagged prism]

30 keys just gets you that golden krampus patch

[pastel lake]

I feel bad for the ppl who wasted 30 keys for that patch, they don't truly understand the value of gambling

[jagged prism]

what gambling?

[pastel lake]

the cashe opening thing

[lunar hare]

I got 30 keys within an hour, so what gambling are you even talking about?

[jagged prism]

what's that gotta do with the 30 key patch though? you donate 15 get a silver patch, 30 gets the golden patch. no gambling involved

[pastel lake]

I'd rather spend those 30 keys on the boxes instead, that's what I'm saying

jeez

[jagged prism]

i'd rather get the patch without spending money later on

[full zinc]

what if you already have the best patch in the game?

them 29 are wasted keys in my mind

[pastel lake]

ty, ghost guy

[jagged prism]

i feel i got the best patch though 😹

[full zinc]

rank 25 shepherd patch FTW!

[jagged prism]

colored in warthog patch for finishing DH at level 30 in a timely manner. not many can do that at level 30 anymore

[pastel lake]

is there a patch also? I only got the unicorn and it was already hella cool

[full zinc]

yes, rank 25 in one season nets a patch

should be easy with the events they run from time to time

[pastel lake]

oh that one, I've seen ppl using it and thought it was really cute but also didn't know where it was from

I'll try getting it on the next Shepard xp boost event thingy

[iron tide]

im guessing you cant get the rav from the chest

[jagged prism]

the krampus winter key? should be just an extremely slim chance

[iron tide]

fair so far in all my keys i have 2 reg 3-4 oro 0 egle 2-4 lex and beacon chest 2 or 3

[jagged prism]

oh wait a minute. typo or intended?

[iron tide]

aw so no rav?

[jagged prism]

that's from a post in #news-and-announcements

[iron tide]

at least over the years i have wanted a oro lex and egl and reg

i got termoil when it came out as i happened to be playing then same with the handbasket and harv

[jagged prism]

i thought it was listed in there and i just over looked it

[iron tide]

i notice bighorn is not there

st elms or that whitegold svd forgot its naem

still a super cool list

[jagged prism]

yeah, big horn isn't listed at all
but general pool exotics is probably most other things exotics wise

[pastel lake]

that's embarrassing, im gonna bet it was a typo

[jagged prism]

big horn is fairly easy to obtain i hear. just have a good legendary build and just farm a 10th floor in summit. think 90 is the best chance since you fight multiple bosses

[pastel lake]

i got mine from those priority objectives

[jagged prism]

you gotta be lying as big horn is legendary exclusive

[pastel lake]

is it? Im pretty sure mine came from a priority objective

[iron tide]

is it? im sure its not as i got mine in the summit

im 70% sure i didnot have it on leg

[jagged prism]

yeah, summit can be ran on legendary and people usually use a 10th floor boss farm to get theirs

[iron tide]

i know im hust saying i dont remember if i was

[jagged prism]

i got mine from legendary DUA

[vagrant hearth]

Wassup

[pastel lake]

yeah, I got mine from priority objectives

was struggling to remember, but I'm 100% sure I got it from there

I'm not sure how much luck is involved tho

[iron tide]

a season or 2 ago i knew there was a way to get the lex but at the time i was only lv63 and it would have been so much work to even get to 100 letolne getting a lex from there as i only had a little while to get it with no season xp boosts

glad i was able to get one

[jagged prism]

maybe stretch goal was running? pretty sure priority objective is used to grind levels for that?

[jagged prism]

you saving your manhunt objectives for this next stretch goal?

[iron tide]

not not doing that didnot know it was a thing

[pastel lake]

it was before that, I think

[jagged prism]

the manhunt objectives gives a lot of seasonal xp. not sure who came up with the idea but yeah, interesting to hear to save those for the stretch goals

[iron tide]

ah

[elfin hazel]

finally reached 10k

[jagged prism]

congrats!

[scenic leaf]

is anyone on still? I'm down to do anything, just shoot me a friend request and I'll join up. My Ubisoft username is: triple6nick

[kind veldt]

Chekc the roles channel so you can see the LFG channels you are missing

[strange swift]

Servers down?

[hybrid viper]

The Snitch’s vendor usually open on what days again?

[south topaz]

https://divisiontimers.com/

[hybrid viper]

Golden Bullet will return again. Sweeeeeeeetttttt

[thick osprey]

this quickstep

is evading me in the winter crates

[hybrid viper]

Oof. I got lucky. When I get that for the first time. 20% speed buff. Instantly favorite it

Was dark Winter even in the crate?

[edgy fable]

No, you need to farm named item caches or DZ for the Dark Winter. Crafting blueprint via Descent or Retaliations

[remote lynx]

Hello 👋, good morning. Happy holidays to all the The Division community! Hopefully RNG will be on your side and reward you with the desired drop from Winter caches 🙂

[small frost]

wait do we lose our exotic cache upon retal completion if we dont have the storage space?

[west vault]

Hey guys, Iam lvl 200, looking for a strong DPS build for PVE, are there any guides for it or any sheets I can refer to?

[prisma owl]

hi

[small spear]

goes into mailbox

[fallow kraken]

hello there ! Does anyone know if the St. Elmos Engine still can drop in Countdown ?

[small frost]

said i got a cache but there's nothing in my mailbox

[hybrid ore]

@fallow kraken It's part of the general loot pool: so yes it can.

[fallow kraken]

awsome thanks

[dire ravine]

It drops on the ground for me where I was last standing right before retaliation ended

[rustic vale]

Sir I like fish to

[west vault]

Guys for backfire, how do i not let bleed apply to me when reloading

[edgy fable]

HazPro

[west vault]

How much % do i need?

[iron tide]

did they nerf the amount of keys 4 kramp squads 0 keys 0 bountys

[hybrid ore]

It's an 8% chance to get the bounty, and the key is low too.
It's all RNG, no nerfs.

[north delta]

can anyone confirm if they have run out of winter keys as I have done 11 encounters with the minions and not one single bloody key.

[hybrid ore]

@north delta Read the message above yours.

[north delta]

yes but I have gotten at least one key from them everyday from the start.

[hybrid ore]

Casino's would love you.

[lunar hare]

have you been cheesing it properly or doing it "the way it's intended"?

[north delta]

no the way its intended.

[lunar hare]

ah that's why

[north delta]

must be

[hybrid ore]

I can attest that the regular drop rate absolutely sucks.
I started off with 0 keys, did all 40 presents with squads along the way: got a grand total of.....15 keys.

[lunar hare]

try it like this
https://youtu.be/Ob52FPtwS9Q?si=Le3o7ENIKHA_0ZQI

[hybrid ore]

Just cheese it, I hate suggesting that, but just do the cheese.

[north delta]

yes I was thinking the same until today when its far worse.

[hybrid ore]

It's no different today than any other day. No change has been made.

[lunar hare]

with that you can get between 15-30 keys every 30-60mins if rngesus loves u*

[hybrid ore]

Since difficulty doesn't factor in to this, you can also just run it on Normal.
Did one bounty and got 5 keys, did 3 more and got.....1. RNG can be mean.

[small frost]

i've been grilling hyena cP4s for the past like two hours now. no blueprint drops

[iron tide]

7 krap squads 1 key 0 bounties and all i got was a festive delivery

im 90% sure st elmo's had a scope

[lunar hare]

it was removed

[small frost]

FINALLY MY GOD

[iron tide]

ah at least i was not miss remembering it

[south topaz]

They said elmo scope was not intended and was some bug so removed

Irony is I never used it 💀

[small spear]

the 3 people who remember strega had a scope:

[quasi apex]

hi guys how can i get lexington as a new player ? countdown ?

[jagged prism]

pure luck from the winter crates, also when the season comes to an end you no life the seasonal experience for whatever they call the Stretch Goal caches

[south topaz]

If u can join me at <t:1766766600:T> i can maybe drop lexi raid exotics for u have some keys saved (this is ur local time)

[warm shell]

Im at a safe house called The Attic I can lead the enemy inside the first door of the building not the safehouse. Then you can walk back across the imaginary safe house line and just stand there having a staring competition with the enemy 🤣🤣

Also love how the NPC don't drop and roll when on fire 😅 😂

[iron tide]

i used it a few times but most of the time not

[quasi apex]

will text u in priv and tell u if i can if u do not mind

[south topaz]

Sure

[south topaz]

Npcs can follow u on cassie location and attack u while u buying something u will be shocked first time when it happens 😂

[warm shell]

The only thing I'm shocked by is the suicide bombing runner guys from the outcasts. Story I've given up following its all over the place 🤣

[iron tide]

when does this krampus thing event end?

[quasi apex]

guys i am getting disconnect most of the time is this normal ?

[thin oasis]

And annoyingly still does....just cant use it 😭

[fervent quest]

lolwtf back to back EB from winter boxes

[hollow hill]

RNG loved you. But yeah it's basically an 8% chance to pull a raid exotic with each chance being like a 3% per raid exotic you pull. Sucks they left out ravenous

[fervent quest]

im just happy i got any raid exotic cat all tbh

[tired nymph]

I'm suffering from success, I've got at least 6 ouroboroses in my inventory

[crude plume]

Wasn't the initial announcement about increasing stash space to 500 with the DLC? now I learned that u only get 50 slots with the Brooklyn DLC

[hidden quail]

Anybody know why i cant summon my companion?

[thin oasis]

Have you turned the seasonal modifiers off?

[hidden quail]

Its on

Hell, it says i have 3/20 medic companions

Its up dpad controller to summon companion right?

[thin oasis]

I believe so

[hidden quail]

I even tried to replace companions and even then they dont do anything

[thin oasis]

Do you have the active modifier turned on too?

[hidden quail]

Yes

[thin oasis]

You have to activate that as well as the seasonal modfier.

Drop a screenshot of your modifier screen in #ask-td2-community

[hidden quail]

Oh wait a minute, you need the active modifier in order to summon too?

[thin oasis]

Yes, the active modifier IS the summon. Which one you have active denotes which type of companion you use

If you deactivate it, you get double the passive bonuses but no companion

[hidden quail]

Oh that makes SO MUCH sense, they didnt say anything about having active modifiers in order to summon, shii mb

[unique bramble]

You forgot to give their next paycheck, they don't work for free.

[hidden quail]

Shi im broke asl

Okay so good news is i got it going, i just didnt know that in order for me to go to the active modifiers i need to hold circle, not just press it

[gritty sapphire]

Hi can anyone recommend me a striker build with decent survivability for most solo heroic content?

[tender wave]

This is more a question for #td2-build-advice but just run ceska obliterate chest, memento and 4pc striker with weapons of your choice.

[gritty sapphire]

Alright thanks

[tacit yoke]

why dont people listen lol, "4 more krampus bounties" everyone leaves

[hollow hill]

I agree. I got my 2 other Reg's I needed and I got my 3rd and 4th EB from the caches. I even got my loved one 4 Reg's and an EB. And 4 Ouro's. Would've loved to have gotten her 3 more EB's but I got burnt out farming for the keys

Would kill to get her Rav but eh maybe one day

[fervent quest]

If I can get an ouro and reg from caches, I can live without rav

Got pretty lucky too and got a quick step pretty early on in the grind

[hollow hill]

Yup I dropped her those pistols too for any dupe characters she makes in the future when she gets past shd 1000. She's got 3 so far I think

It's a damn shame they're not opening up the loot goblin, or haven't been. I personally would've liked to have the loot goblin drop the other junk and have the winter caches drop the more exclusive stuff

[south topaz]

The day random matchmake people starts to listen this game would be dead

[tacit yoke]

dang

[south topaz]

Who knows maybe this is the new normal, even in Halloween event they replaced loot goblin with warhounnds, let's see what happens in valentine event

[hollow hill]

Hey if they want to make it a new normal, then make the drop chances on the loot goblin low and have it run 24/7

Since it'll basically replace the loot goblin altogether. May as well make him still have a use for when you're bored farming seasonal keys yk? Or bounties

[tacit yoke]

rise of the machines? more warhound bosses?

[quasi apex]

guys is some one else having a problem that from time to time there is invisible wall or something like that ? or its just me ?

[edgy fable]

I always wondered why the Strega scope was removed. It comes with a scope, physically.

[toxic lily]

why do i feel the drop rate of the keys been nerfed

If they nerf it, the exotic drop rate better be great

nvm still the same drop rate

[crude plume]

Yes, clipping issues I believe

[sterile ferry]

everybody getting back to back eagle bearers from the event cache meanwhile all im getting is slingshots ://

[icy fulcrum]

they fixed the infinite bounty ? like...now i need to finish the bounty? if i fast travel to a safe house i loose the bounty ?

[small spear]

don't kill the boss

[icy fulcrum]

i did not killed it...i just cleared the first 2 waves and then fast travelled

[small spear]

you know where to reactivate it right?

map > bounties

[icy fulcrum]

oh...i forgot that part lmao...sorry and tyvm

[forest wyvern]

Im the only one lagging like crazy now?

First time I see that and Im at the white house

I keep getting Delta 03 then login again and spawn at white house with same people in lobby

[icy fulcrum]

it is normal for me here...

[south topaz]

disable modifier and see if lagging improves

[fringe wren]

Hi everyone, hope all is well and keeping safe. How many duplicates of each weapon do you keep? Or is it really necessary? With this Winter Event, I now have 9 Caretaker, 9 Lexington, 6 Huntsman and 20 Bellringer. It takes alot of my inventory space. How much of each is a good number to keep? One? Two? Any inputs would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[south topaz]

u can save all lexi on stash doesn't take space
keep 1 copy of rest, for bell ringer can keep best copy with CHC roll and DTA roll

[kind veldt]

max one extra copy i feel

[fringe wren]

Thanks @south topaz and @kind veldt for feedback, much appreciated 💪

[hybrid ore]

If it's hard to get: you have up to 4 characters available. You might as well keep one as your junk drawer.
Just, make sure you clean it up every now and then.

[fringe wren]

Thanks @hybrid ore , yeah, I try to keep at least one of each. And like you mentioned more than one of the hard to get ones. Just don't accidentally delete a mule character 🙈

[hybrid ore]

It's pretty hard to accidentally delete a character, it's not a single button.

[kind veldt]

yet we have people asking that almost everyday

[hybrid ore]

No comment on that one.

[thick osprey]

twin

[vivid wigeon]

guys, farming winter keys on higher diff. gives better ch to drop or not?

[thin oasis]

No. Key drop chance is hard set at 8%

[vivid wigeon]

i see, ok ty

[limber viper]

Hi can someone help me what's the best attribute for the eagle bearer and the regulus?

[thin oasis]

Dttooc on all weapon s except LMGs

[limber viper]

OK ty

[thin oasis]

LMGs already have Dttooc so normally you use CHC, or in niche cases ROF

[limber viper]

OK ty for helping me much appreciate

[fringe wren]

Hi, I want to reconfigure the 3rd attribute of an exotic weapon. But I cannot seem to find a way to do that? I am on PC, and I go to the Crafting Station, but there is no Reconfigure option anywhere, instead it wants to craft a new one? Are we not able to reconfigure the third attribute on am exotic anymore? Any inputs would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[sterile ferry]

What's the exotic?

[fringe wren]

I was thinking the Eagle Bearer, Ouroboros, Regulus. Can those three be reconfigured? I don't seem to have a blueprint for any of them? Despite getting them in the Winter event.

[sterile ferry]

Have you checked if inaya is selling the blueprints?

[fringe wren]

I did try it with the Scorpio which I do have a blueprint for, but that one can also only be crafted. And no option to reconfigure.

[fringe wren]

I'm sure I did go to her and bought blueprints, she doesn't have any now. Not sure what happened to them.

[south topaz]

have u checked under AR>exotics?

[drifting scaffold]

hi guys, when exactly is the survive fest ending in the 27th, i would love an exact hour globally…

and Merry Christmas 💞

[fringe wren]

Ahhh, thanks, I figured it out after you said above, I was going to Crafting Station and choosing Exotics in the category. That seems to be only for crafting new ones. If you choose the Weapons category, and on the small icons on the left, second last one, choose Exotics (diamond icon), then you can reconfigure it 💪

[thin oasis]

Survivefest was postponed and isnt taking place until the end of january

[drifting scaffold]

ohh my mistake 😔🥲 and thank you 🙏🏻

[pulsar herald]

The key drops for the event feel less and less and the rng gods are not on my side 😔

[hybrid ore]

@drifting scaffold It's also only in div1, so you're going to need to head down to #td1-lfg when the time comes.

[thin oasis]

You should average roughly 8 per 100 kills. If you're cheeseing the bounty that's roughly 2 per cheese.

That only works over a significant sample size though, you could get 5 per run for an hour then nothing for 3 hours.

It's all relative, it's all RNG.

[cursive wolf]

Morning all. Anyone having issues deconstructing and/or can’t sell to vendor, nothing being applied towards Expertise?

[tropic sentinel]

And what's the issue, you can't decon/sell, or you think that doing that is supposed to increase expertise?

[green badge]

Nope, not seen that in chat for last few hours. Looks like it's isolated to you. Restart/Verify files?

[thin oasis]

Deconstructing items does NOT reward expertise.

[cursive wolf]

For almost 2 days nothing is being applied to my Expertise. And then today I try to deconstruct my 117 items and they won’t deconstruct. So I tried to sell them to the vendor and they won’t disappear.

[thin oasis]

If you're already proficient in something, you can no longer donate it for expertise.

That's point one out of the way.

For the second point, hold the button longer

[green badge]

Deconstructing and selling are two very different mechanics. If both are failing for you, it seems weird. If you mark them, they won't sell, un mark them. If you're already proficient, they won't increase your value.

[near geyser]

When does the 5x XP event end? I've been traveling all week but will be back this evening

[green badge]

Don't rush, you missed it.

[near geyser]

Dangggg. Oh well tx

[green badge]

Its Countdown now.

[near geyser]

Extra coins for exotic caches?

[green badge]

Yeah, about avg 260-280 from challenging, and 360ish from HC. iirc

[near geyser]

Sounds nice. I've been in the mood to crank up expertise, so I can kill 2 birds

[lunar hare]

hardcore?

[green badge]

No. Just did a challenging. 280 received.

[lunar hare]

If you meant Heroic you have to know HC is commonly known as Hard-Core.

[green badge]

I've always known HC as Heroic in all my games. Live and learn eh?

[fierce salmon]

Are ubisoft servers down ? can't connect online in Avatar pandora

[gaunt totem]

Is there any duplicates from the winter caches?

Or is it just a one and done kinda thing?

[lunar hare]

you can get dupes

[gaunt totem]

Fahhh I thought it was a one and done cause I WANT that Eagle Bearer so badly

Been seeing YouTube videos of it.. is it still good or are there any better exotics?

[lunar hare]

it's decent for pvp and trash for pve

[gaunt totem]

Ohhhh

[lunar hare]

but tbh pvpers like using Bighorn Regen builds instead of EB

[gaunt totem]

Oof, any recommendations for pve? Not really big on pvp cause they be so op

Or prolly cause I don't use the right things

[lunar hare]

regulus is a must have
maybe I can help you in a few minutes (idk) to cheese winter keys

[gaunt totem]

Ik abt the winter keys, I just need the gun lol

Thank you though!

[lunar hare]

more enemies = slightly higher chances of winter keys
that's why I'm offering help lol

[gaunt totem]

Okay now the more enemies thing I never knew

But thank you very much :]

[jagged prism]

if you're solo and good at beaming heads the Eagle Bearer can help you survive some situations, but in group content you're screwed

[left depot]

Where is a good area to farm for St. Elmo’s Engine?

[edgy fable]

Assault Rifle targeted loot, Countdown is a good start

[sullen viper]

does chd work on headshots?

[jagged prism]

or if you like gambling live in the Priority objectives that gives exotics

[jagged prism]

it probably could but you'd be stretched thin trying to do headshots and crit damage in 1 build

[tender wave]

Yes but it's additive with headshot damage so generally a pretty small increase given the necessary stat investment. Only sometimes used with diamondback since you don't need crit chance.

[alpine drum]

Welp. Felt like a dummy last night. Hopped on with about 3.25 hours left of the 5xp. Did a couple CPs, got a good PUG together, then.... went and did about 10 heroic Kramps, killing him. Only to realize... wait, we're only getting 12k per kill guys. Wth? The winter bounty isn't a part of the 5xp?! It sure was not.

[sullen viper]

so whats the best possible approach? chd and a bit of chc?

[tender wave]

Depends on the build. If you're building for crit, you want to balance chc and chd such that chance is about half of damage up until chance reaches max (60%) then put everything else in chd.
If you're building for headshot, generally you put everything into hsd and weapon handling.

[jagged prism]

☝️ hence the reason i said you're stretched thin if you try to do both a crit and headshot damage build. even if you do manage it, the only way i can think of is with ninjabike backpack but you're still doing less damage because lack of backpack talent

[crimson peak]

Since battle for Brooklyn is on sale is it good or not

[loud fox]

is good, but short

on sale is probably the perfect time to get it

[jagged prism]

depends if you want a named AR, Exotic mask and 2 new skills

or was it 1 new skill?

[upper dome]

Anyone know what the heck I need to do to complete objective 1 of week 4/12 on the manhunt? ||”A group of former JTF personnel have been captured. Intel suggests Major Bungler might be involved.”||

[jagged prism]

seems like a hostage rescue thing? might be in a very specific area as well, i forget honestly. can google/youtube the scout solutions like Scout Week X

[upper dome]

Yeah that’s the one. Yeah AI didn’t manage to help me and google told me pure lies as well. I’ll just keep clearing control points in every area and maybe it’ll pop

[tender wave]

I've seen a few people saying it's a hostage rescue, just make sure you're not confusing it with a public execution activity - you want the green handcuffs icon, generally only appears in areas where you've captured all the CPs

[jagged prism]

probably use the search here, think people been posting the solutions since the season started and each scout opened up

[raw relic]

Curious as I played a little yesterday and come on today to play as it said 5x XP event on the 26th? Where’s the event gone? Or have I misread it?

[cursive hamlet]

Finally scaled The Summit solo on challenging, quite happy with myself, also partially cause of the mask

[cursive hamlet]

5x XP event is already over sadly, you just missed it

[raw relic]

So it didn’t even last more than a day sucks only being able to play at night🙄

[cursive hamlet]

it started like tuesday

[raw relic]

Damn it!! Missed out on billions of XP from the journey exploit and now 3days of 5x XP🥲 got my St Elmo’s though so ain’t too bad

[cursive hamlet]

OOF, it really sucks to miss it

[raw relic]

Tell me about it, I’ve gained I’d say going on 400 levels in a couples weeks and that event is what I was most excited for even over the golden bullet event🥲 you know roughly when the next one might be? Booking time off work😂

[cursive hamlet]

LMAO, jumped from like lvl 350 or smth to lvl 600 now all due to the 5xp event. With the next date i cant help you

[iron tide]

strange that you can get a nem from the chests

im sure on the list yesterday i didnot see it on there but then again as i already had one i prob just ignored it

[pastel elbow]

Does 'executioner' trait work on named?

[pastel lake]

so that's where the Lexington comes from? or is it another named AR?

[toxic lily]

Named ar

One of the many named AR that has random perk stats but the stats are maxed sometimes

[thick osprey]

i finally got mine

but inaya aint selling the reconfig for some reason

[near geyser]

Anyone else getting constant delta 3s on PS5 this week?

[hybrid viper]

Currently can be dropped from Winter Cache.

So if you dont have it. Might look into to farm

[pastel lake]

I know, dude

I'm asking if Lexington is ORIGINALLY from the Brooklyn dlc

[hybrid viper]

Oh nah. It is from limited time Veteran reward

[pastel lake]

ah ok, fair enough

[sullen viper]

someone gave me a eagle ar

people are also sharing their exotic drops from missions with me which is very nice

[pastel lake]

they're either, trying to get in ur pants or they're just being nice and cool

both are good anyway

[lament verge]

How come when I get to a classified assignment, it won't let me start it. It just looks staticy or pixelated.

[rough sleet]

do you own that content to play it?

and if you're doing the first assignment, I think you have to do the little "scanning for entrance" and walk through the ISAC searching to find that door despite you knowing where it's at...

[lament verge]

hmm I should own everything but battle for brooklyn

[sullen viper]

how are some players running faster with a different animation than me?

[jagged prism]

magic? they give it away in the winter cache. it's a side arm called quickstep

[onyx finch]

Like @jagged prism said, it's Quickstep. It's current available via the Christmas event. It's meta now, not for actually using it, just for running really fast though content.

[woven sierra]

QQ for the community if I may because the internet seems to be conflicted...

Has anyone actually gotten a Nemesis from the Winter Caches?

[fervent cipher]

I got a back to back nemesis lmao

[woven sierra]

Son of a...

I thought I got everything... I have donated 100s of keys, literally...

[fervent cipher]

I got 3 nemesis' now, never needed to grind descent. I've never touched it as well

[woven sierra]

TY for the info

[fervent cipher]

I legit didn't see your message, guess it was timing lmao (I got one from a winter cache a few days ago, and 2 rn)

[south topaz]

Yes gave a lvl 112 guy nemesis just yesterday

[gaunt totem]

Im so confused... how do I get the chatterbox components? I been following a video and I only got two out of the four stuff.. unless there's a chance to get them

[fervent cipher]

There's a chatterbox quest?

[gaunt totem]

Nope, just gotta find Hyena boxes

There's a video of it but I can't get 2 components, I only got modified mods and creative mag

[kind veldt]

Chance

[jagged prism]

it's not where nemesis comes from though it's just a project that you wait weekly for the 3 strongholds to gives you pieces of it to combine

[fervent cipher]

Ah well, close enough, the main boss is called nemesis so

[hybrid ore]

Div has a bit of a habit of confusingly re-used names.

[jagged prism]

if there's an exotic you're thinking from Descent it's a Rifle that costs a lot of points to obtain for you to just stash it though

[south topaz]

Not lot of points, it takes like 3 nemesis clear to get vindicator, i have 10k descent credit somehow

[jagged prism]

is that successfully killing the nemesis 3 times? seems like a lot to me honestly for something that i just stash anyways 😹

[safe silo]

If I got one of the Division games should it be 1 or 2? Which one is better and or played more

[dire ravine]

Mechanics n gameplay is better in 2. 1 has the best atmosphere

[fervent cipher]

For a lore standpoint, go with division 1. If you want to play a lot more better endgame, go for division 2.

[toxic lily]

If you want both, go for Division 3, if Massive confirms it

[safe silo]

How does the game hold up for a Solo player. Doubt I can convince my boys to play it

[dire ravine]

I'm always solo

With almost 5k hours so I'd say solo is alright for div

[small spear]

you can do a lot solo in this game. there is only little content that forces group play

with that said there's a lot of hard content to keep you busy, and there's a decent variability in how you can play

[dire ravine]

If only there was an average player on ps

[small spear]

get on pc sir

[jagged prism]

or if you can manage to afford both get both

[inner elbow]

Ditch the CCTV cameras

[south topaz]

Yes at loop 6 or 7, gives about 100 credit each run avg

[jagged prism]

good to know, i rarely last that long. die to nemesis or just get extremely bored

[late peak]

whatever happened to the teaser regarding snow?

[unique summit]

its in development

[jagged prism]

Where or when we get to see it is up in the air

Id imagine the boo snow falling is part of it

[jovial kiln]

What’s the % for Lexington in the winter cache

[warm shell]

Anyone go in Darkzones anymore? I remember division 1 always getting killed 🤣. New to division 2 but hardly seen anyone in there except npc enemies

[dire ravine]

First depends on your shd level. There's brackets now so if you're below 1k shd they'll be less players. Secondly a lot of pvp players moved on to other games due to pvp issues

[warm shell]

Ah that makes sense. I'm just starting on shd level lol. I don't really like pvp prefer pve but figured i should check em out 😂

[shut sable]

just hit level 32 anyone want to clear hard content?

[tender wave]

@shut sable the channel for grouping requests is #lfg-pc

[jagged prism]

wouldn't be fun for you if a level 40 joined. i know it's only 8 levels but the damage they'd do compared to what you're doing would be tremondous still

[shut sable]

@tender wave ok ty

@jagged prism I've played before back in the day on PS but alright i'll take your advice, can't remember much to fair

[jagged prism]

welcome backish?

[wind turret]

@dire ravineOceania DZ servers are completly dead on PC , everyone moved on when Arc Raiders and BF6 dropped

[dire ravine]

Not surprised. Arc is def some fun

[drowsy pewter]

is it just me or i can't find any countdown games

[unique bramble]

As a PS4 player, I'm sad.

[fervent cipher]

Why's the shop not allowing me to buy a accessory with textiles

[thin oasis]

Because not all of them can be

[true cape]

Anyone around level 16 or so?

[jagged prism]

depends on the difficulty i'm guessing? if you're not doing say challenging won't find people for it honestly or depending on your region US west to east and the other countries they split them into might have to wait for their primetime

[jagged prism]

probably a handful, but the good majority is level 40 which is max level

[muted narwhal]

Is this Winter Cache event bugged?? Because I have toiled hard and opened more than 40 cache boxes and not a single eagle bearer. I saw in one Youtuber's video that Eagle Bearer is also on the cards. But I managed to get one Regulus which I never had before.

[tender wave]

Not bugged, just luck

Lots of people have reported getting EB

[sullen viper]

there is a guy that keeps yapping that he hates the nightshift

anyway to make him shut his mouth?

[unique summit]

KELSO?!

IS THAT WHERE YOU WENT?

what?

and now i look insane, thanks kettle

[tender wave]

Always a pleasure

[serene solar]

Got multiple EB / Regulus, Oro doesnt want to be found sadly.

[fervent cipher]

No no, I'm trying to buy a textile able item (it's the white and red respirator which costs 1700 textiles) but it's saying it didn't go through

[sullen viper]

is it possible to lose weapons when your inventory is full?

[toxic lily]

yes

Just delete any loot that is not suited for you or put it in the stash and organised it later

[sullen viper]

i had to logout and log back in and it appeared in my postmaster

[fervent cipher]

I think that's for winter caches, they don't take up any space in the stash I think, like a phantom.

That's sometimes painful.

[sullen viper]

i got a weapon with all maxed out stats, the lexington, with the perk ranger, thats crazy

[south topaz]

Lexi and caretaker drops with max god rolled stats ALWAYS

[sullen viper]

ahh nice regardless

[craggy drift]

hiiiii

i have a quick question for a returner

is there any good things when i start a new char or i just need to keep playing the old char since i left this game

thx

[broken temple]

It doesn't matter. I'd say, if you have only one char, create a second one - this will give you additional stash space and you can share all materials and gear between charecters 🙂 I have 2 and when there are cool projets, I do them with both to get double the rewards.

[craggy drift]

share stash ?
Hmmm that cool
even if the red gun and other thing in stash ?

[thin oasis]

As long as your character is the right level to use them

[hollow zephyr]

merry xmass players 😉 -.............................. hm is there any chance to find out which specific coms are at the moment in the descent ??? cause im missing 5 . and i play it everey week bist no new coms since around 6-7 weeks 🙁

[south topaz]

https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/1pusbht/psa_the_division_2_descent_comms_rerun_schedule/

[hollow zephyr]

THX 😉

[grave timber]

Or just kill Nemesis every week until you get all comms

[hollow zephyr]

hehe i checked that list and thos i am missing i need to wait till end of feb next year ^^ i miss 74 91,92,93 and 94 ^^

[spare ocean]

Can I get the nimble holster besides doing retaliation or no i need that holster for a build i wanna try

[tender wave]

Should be in the general and target loot pools so just farm random exotics (priority objectives) or target farm holsters (countdown or retaliations)

[spare ocean]

Thank you so much

[sullen viper]

idk why you cant share images here

but i suspect someone in my game was lagswitching

[hollow hill]

this server isnt meant for reporting cheating or lagswitching. and if its pve only, whats it matter too much? they could also genuinely just have really bad internet. and this game's source code is worse than dry spaghetti. desync is very common

[hybrid ore]

@sullen viper No one on this server can help you anyway, what fifty said is likely right, but if you do want to take it further: you'll have to send in an actual support ticket.
We have a "no naming and shaming" policy on this server.

[sullen viper]

i mean its still sad someone potentially resorted to that in a pve enviorment

but im just gonna leave it here

[hushed warren]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[trim fog]

Yes. A chance to drop after completing a Hyena retaliation I think

[heavy ocean]

So what's the reward in div 2 for playing the division 1 survival?

[rough sleet]

it was a patch afaik, but I also think there were some bugs with it or something and they said they'd rerun that event at a later date? can't remember, something was goofy with it tho

[thin oasis]

In all honesty, lag switching would have absolutely ZERO effect in a PvE environment.

If anything it would likely get you killed

[heavy ocean]

"An additional reward is being prepared for everyone who joined the event. It will be granted on January 27."

[sullen viper]

i was just doing a mission and i suddenly got resed by a non moving teammates and afterwards i got shot behind several walls

[thin oasis]

An ally lagswitching wouldnt have the enemies shoot you from behind walls.

More than likely you were just in poor cover and the enemies above you

Or, your connection is poor and you had packet loss

[glossy moth]

Don’t think it’s bugged by do think their post listing items “in descending order by drop chance” is wrong. I’ve had 1 Lexington out of 100 caches but like 10 Oh Carol’s

[violet canyon]

Is the white krampus outfit reward bugged? I dont have the option to claim it anywhere and ive already donated 31 keys

the game even let me open an apparel cache and took my key but didnt give me anything wtf

no one? just me? ok

[edgy fable]

Do you have a spare key to open the community chest one last time?

[violet canyon]

there is no community chest for me to open, thats the problem

[edgy fable]

Did you try to relog yet?

[violet canyon]

ill relog now, though ive had this event done for over a week, it should just be there for me to grab

nope, relogging did nothing

awesome, love this game

[edgy fable]

#ask-td2-community message

[tender wave]

You do need to have a spare key ready, even though you won't be using it

[edgy fable]

I'm sure they got something confused ^^

Everyone has the community cache available

[jagged prism]

if you logged in division 2 during survive fest you got a silver badge. if you logged into survival in div 1 and successfully extracted you got a gold badge, but like they said something went wrong with it so they stopped the event to rerun it later

[heavy ocean]

Oh, okay

[jagged prism]

so likely when they rerun it the date to end for it will also get extended from the previous date they had set

it could've been the community wasn't happy about only 20 people getting the new outfit for free, they extended to 60 people but still not many people happy about that fact so maybe trying to change it to anyone who extracted successfully got the outfit but they broke the code for it

[edgy fable]

If you don't get the outfit from the event you're able to buy it from the store :p

[jagged prism]

i was only aiming for the gold badge honestly, could care less about the outfit
also think the sheer amount of interest in it practically killed their servers was part of it being delayed

[stable rover]

does the houndsman bounties still drop quickstep and if so.. does anyone wanna share?

[small spear]

i can hop on in 5min but be aware it will be low-rolled (if you care about that). what's your ign?

[stable rover]

xBlazeChino

appreciate it 🙂

[open scarab]

so level 30-40 is the same as pre 30 ?

[jagged prism]

max level is 40, so you do whatever you want if you don't have Warlords of New York to play through, so you spam things until you hit 40

[frigid latch]

Hello

[jagged prism]

progression was, you get to 30, you can do the few missions left, one including the black tusk invasion, then you hopped over to New York to go from 31-40 as you used to be locked to 30
but since battle for brooklyn i think? they opened it so you can go 1-40 in DC alone now

[small spear]

it will drop from the event cache after you kill him

if you need more runs tell me

[stable rover]

didn't get it 🙁

[haughty flint]

Hi, how can I get the overdogs exotic glove?

[jagged prism]

the usual places would be Summit/countdown with gloves targeted loot, but you can also do retaliations with gloves target loot or figure which of the 3 factions drops the blueprint for it and keep aggravating them until you get the blueprint through retaliations

[haughty flint]

ok thanks

[small spear]

what about now?

[stable rover]

not too sure it drops anymore.. didn't get it

[small spear]

okay i'll try a heroic one

[stable rover]

appreciate you fam.. just getting back into div2 after like 4 yrs

[quick meadow]

Redownloading the game after a couple of years. Any tips on where to start?

[lunar hare]

check #ask-td2-community pins

[frigid latch]

Speak spanish

[lunar hare]

english server, sorry

[frigid latch]

Dont worrt i try to talk in english

[quick meadow]

hablo un poco🤣

[lunar hare]

im mexican if you want to dm me for written help or whatever

[kind veldt]

For the #lfg-playstation you can use spanish to find other people

[small frost]

I’d rec countdown. I spent a hour and a half grilling CP4s and did one retal. I did probably five or six countdowns with gloves TL (thanks to @lunar hare for the help) and got it on the last one

How do you guys farm faction material? I tried taking over CPs and did a few bounties but basically got none. Then I googled and said I could only get them on missions?

[rough sleet]

the new holiday camo and holiday cozy skins in the store....those ARE the holiday skins from Div 1 aren't they? (not complaining, they just look VERY FAMILIAR)

[solid aurora]

Can you still get quick stop pistol

[edgy fable]

Y, Winter Caches

[icy fulcrum]

Guys, It is possible to farm The Turmoil Kneepads?

I was not playing when It was released 🙁

[elfin hazel]

yes they're in the winter caches

[iron tide]

what should i aim for nem?

im guessing reload speed does not effect charge speed

[kind veldt]

it does not

[iron tide]

sometimes games can have odd interactions so thought id ask

[upper swift]

heyo all, recently switched to the xbox platform so starting all over, but kinda psyched to replay one of my favorite games all over again

[twilit vine]

Hi I'm just in here looking to see if anyone wants to experience the game the mil sim let me know Ne can discuss it more

[main nest]

@twilit vine wanna hop in a vc?

[spare cove]

Is Div 2 affected by the Ubisoft hack that were all over the news?

[kind veldt]

dont believe so

[edgy fable]

R6S only it seems

They gifted roughly $339,960,000,000,000 worth of in-game currency to players.
Allegedly. Dead 😂

[silk vigil]

If only they paid a visit to Div2 😔

[edgy fable]

Oh there is more to it. Like random bans

But you should google for more details

[spare cove]

As long as I'm able to play the game, then that's fine by me.

[sullen viper]

does chc cap out at 60% or are there diminishing returns?

[edgy fable]

It's capped at 60% unless there's an event that allows you to go over

Should try to be as close to 60 as possible, CHC to CHD ratio is 1:2 as rule of thumb

[astral flare]

Can someone help me with the math . I am at expertise 15 I want to reach max lvl ,I have been saving all resources for expertise event in 2 days. I am full on filaments 9999 and I have 1300 shd lvl would it be enough?

[tacit yoke]

i swear the shock is the most annoying effect

[unique summit]

not as close as possible, but do chc * chd = N and pick the highest N
unless you're running killer or tipping scales

[edgy fable]

Aye

[left oriole]

3000 filaments to level proficiency to max. 300 filaments per level

So I assume on expertise event, it takes half filaments. I could be wrong

[hollow hill]

Depends on the variable it's multiplying by. So if it's 3x, it's 3x faster. 5x, 5x faster. Basically if it's 2x, it's now half the cost

[small frost]

holy hell i hit a spawn bug in CD for the first time and i hit over 1mil in total damage with the hotshot build. 40+ kills 😂 didn't know team had already dipped to extract. i had to fight my way out LOOOL

[toxic lily]

Tf gas lol

[high wren]

So going back into the Anderson manhunt knowing the layout of everything I was able to make it to extraction with 10 minutes left lol

though fire suppression was still a bit closer than I'd've liked just from how much distance you have to cover for it

[lunar hare]

@full zinc It's the 3rd time this guy has done that here, shouldn't they be... yk?

[full zinc]

unfortunately, not always at my pc. thanks for the heads up

[tacit yoke]

man i dont think i can get the santa outfit

[edgy fable]

Why not?

[tacit yoke]

i got 25/25 and i didnt get it

unless its the standard apparel cache, which is gonna drain me

[thin oasis]

Santa outfit is from the hidden presents....not the apparel cache...

[tacit yoke]

ahh explains alot

[thin oasis]

You have to find all 40 of them

[tacit yoke]

yikes im going to be busy then i guess

[thin oasis]

Theres already a map with all 40 locations and their coordinates pinned in #ask-td2-community

[high wren]

I want to say it took me maybe 2-3 hours with a lot of getting distracted.

copied the map into mspaint so I could mark them off as I went

[prisma owl]

hai

[tacit yoke]

best reaction to a new gun "what in the holy hell is that"

[alpine lantern]

there is no such weapon..

[wide briar]

You can always start another character don’t buy shared materials blueprint yet . Grind till you fill filament to cap and anything else then buy blueprint.

[tacit yoke]

overlord @alpine lantern it looks like a rifle but its a shotgun

[alpine lantern]

garbage in the long run..

[tacit yoke]

yeah im sticking to bluescreen atm

[warm shell]

I just finished ||Tidal Basin, The zoo and then Camp White Oak|| when do I do the Invaded parts of these missions or do I carry on and come back later?

[cosmic kernel]

is the Brooklyn dlc worth getting or just stick with warlords?

[crimson raven]

it's cap at 70% - 100% in a "Potomac Event Center : The Manager" 😉

[broken temple]

Certainly worth it, although it is much smaller than NY. But you'll get some new skills, Hunter masks, and Brooklyn is really beautiful. I can just say, shoot the pumpkins 😄

[crimson raven]

bad boy u shoot pumpkins 🤣

[broken temple]

yeah, I felt bad but it's soooo much fun, and you'll get something for it 😉

[lament light]

Good morning, I'd like to ask a question here: for those who only own the New York DLC, would there be a significant difference in terms of equipment and power compared to the new DLC, or would the strength and equipment results be on the same level for endgame comparison?

[broken temple]

In my opinion no difference... that would be a but unfair

[lament light]

@broken temple in that case only open more skill build right ?

[broken temple]

well, you get a few new skill mods, and I think one of the exotics is linked to Brooklyn, but you can live without it. In any case, if you can, the DLC is fun, but if you have doubts, there is no real need to get it

[lament light]

thanks for the help ^^

[tacit yoke]

i feel mean using spearhead (missile) on a single enemy

[thorn light]

is there anyway i can still get the quickstep pistol?

wait never mind i just seen that i isnt obtainable anymore unless i or some one i know has a bounty for the hunts man or hounds man

[broken temple]

not entirely true, you can still get it from named item caches

[thorn light]

how do i get them?

[runic wren]

you grind winter event keys and open the cache (the named item one) and pray to get it

[broken temple]

Winter event, Countdown vendor, sometimes the Event vendor (when there is Hollywwod or Golden Bullet on), Retaliation caches...

[thorn light]

seen that danny waaver might have them

[runic wren]

not sure Quickstep is available in countdown.

[dire ravine]

Ye quickstep is only available thru the winter gear caches or the houndsman bounty caches at end. No other way to get it

[lament light]

My weak point in the game is to learning this craft system to evolve your weapon to end game

[broken temple]

Do you mean the Tinkering Station ?

[lament light]

@broken temple Yes tinkering and project station

[broken temple]

Projects is stuff you can do daily and weekly to get additional rewards, definitely worth doing

[lament light]

@broken temple Yes but I receive some blueprints

and I have any notion about that

[broken temple]

The Tinkering Station is so you can recalibrate and improve your gear and weapons, I recommend watching some videos on YouTube (too long to describe here)

[lament light]

I tried already to watch about that but many videos is rushed and not explain all parts about that

[dire ravine]

Do projects n lvl 3 n 4 control points to get blueprints. Then craft. While just playing grab all loot n put talents n good attributes in your library. That will enable you to recalibrate your gear n weapons. Just know you can recalibrate either one talent or one attribute on each weapon or gear

[lament light]

But I m thinking to create some weapons using a blueprint for random status or is recommend upgrade my weapons in inventory ?

[dire ravine]

What lvl are you

[lament light]

143

[jagged prism]

@lament light in #td2-build-advice pins is a list of builds that's been tested

[lament light]

I m in early game

[jagged prism]

doesn't matter, you're level, those builds you can obtain now if you wanted. the usual suggested first one is the striker

[thorn light]

where are the danny and casi venders? i cant find them on my map

[dire ravine]

Ye what Soul said. N it's easier to farm targeted loot thru countdown or retaliation than to actually craft weapons in this game. Crafting has very low stats

[jagged prism]

you speak with the snitch?

[lament light]

I m playing in hard difficulty because I have already some defenses for this

[thorn light]

yeah i found him in a elevator a few days ago but didnt know it was him, got a bounty from him then did it

[jagged prism]

whenever you speak to him, he'll make 2 shopping carts appear on your map. you said a few days ago, so means you gotta find him again to make the vendors appear again

[jagged prism]

the progression is usually, get to 40. once you're 40 you seek a build. use that build to seek other builds and figure which build or even playstyle suits you

[lament light]

I m using old gear for year 6

I don t have year 7 drops gear

[thorn light]

ok well ive searched like 4 4locations and hes not there but im sure there is another spot i can look

[jagged prism]

you wouldn't believe how old Striker build is

[jagged prism]

from what i've read. he spawns randomly the moment you log in. you can kind of force him to spawn where you want him to. sicne you're on you'd log off. log in run to 1 location you want him to spawn. if he's not there. log off and then log back on and try the 1 place until he does spawn there

[thorn light]

yeah i cant find him so i might try that

so if i was to log out at the theatre then log back in he should be at the spawn near there?

[jagged prism]

possibly, i'm going to provide a picture of his one location i like to find him

[south topaz]

Target Outside of golf checkpoint dz south

[fair ice]

The winter community chest wont let me open it. Even though I donated a key

[runic wren]

there's no item in there

[dire ravine]

Make sure you have a key on you and try again

[runic wren]

you just give keys with this "chest"

[dire ravine]

It gives you Krampus fit

[fair ice]

I tried it with a key on me still no luck. I went back with 7 keys. Still wouldn't let me open it. Buddy was able to open up his though

[dire ravine]

Ye that's strange. Have you tried completing logging out

[fair ice]

Yes! Tired everything. Relog an even closing application. Nothing all it tells me is I donated 2 keys and that's it lmao

[sharp gulch]

soo.. i just came back after like missing 3 month ish on the game.. and they changed the directives.. i just put on the usual stuff like i did before, and i got shredded on heroic difficulty with my op deflector build.. i was like wait something is wrong what are these green book ish things on the floor.. then i read all the modifiers and i was like no way i cant do heroic anymore with this build.. kinda makes me sad ngl haha

[jagged prism]

every new season they change the active directives

[sharp gulch]

ohh.. interesting lol didn't know, i just started putting them on last season

soo i see the reason now, hmm also they unequipped my mods on the gears which was strange lol

[jagged prism]

yeah, new mods every season as well

did you do the first mission for this season yet?

[tacit yoke]

other than pumpkin smashing and present destroying is there any other christmas thing

grenades are fun with pumpkins

[thin oasis]

OP and deflector have never been used in the same sentence in all honesty

[sharp gulch]

let me tell you, that i could solo heroic missions with all modifiers (last season) easily 😄

[sharp gulch]

yes

[thin oasis]

That doesnt make a build overpowered honestly. You can do that with any old shite

[sharp gulch]

it was fun because i could boost the xp on the missions so i could farm some xp and it was somewhat challenging cause im still only 400lv on shd haha

[sharp gulch]

do that with any build while you face tank any mobs ty lol

[jagged prism]

if i'm going to be honest. @sharp gulch i'd be curious to see this OP deflector build honestly

[thin oasis]

Yes....people regularly do that?

[sharp gulch]

i just use catharsis with reduced elite dmg on gears and the bulwark set if im correct with repair hive the old same thing tbh

[sharp gulch]

never seen a build face tank some mobs on heroic but okay lol thats why play this build because i enjoy killing enemies wtih their own bullets haha while i was just walking

also i used the liberty pistol for some dmg

i haven't change my build for years btw so i guess its time now haha it was still a viable build imo

[jagged prism]

think it'd only work on the 2 factions. true sons and black tusk aims for your head mostly i think? least it feels that way to me, but interesting

[sharp gulch]

catharsis is good for some defend thats why

and every elite aims only head

[thin oasis]

Catharsis is poor, in general.

Taking damage deliberately is something you don't want to happen. Bullets hurt, and there are alot of them.

Fine on low difficulty, doesnt work in Master/Legendary.

[sharp gulch]

i only played heroic for a reason, because i knew i cant do the higher difficulties

but as i said, its a fun build for me, i just dont really like other builds that much, i mean maybe the mantis i will try

[dire ravine]

Just have some fun like you said you're only shd lvl 400. Can be fun experimenting with builds just see what you like

[sharp gulch]

ohh dont worry i help my mother who has 5k i just dont really play alone that much, i didn't care for shd lvl too much either, i come and play a little in division since none of my friends like the "looter shooter" games, they like pvp games (sadge), i've seen a few builds tbh, mantis is the one that intrest me a little, but maybe when i will hit lvl 30 potency haha

[jagged prism]

@sharp gulch if push comes to shove just deactivate the skill directive

[sharp gulch]

yeah but the 100% xp looks soo good haha but yeah i will do that

[jagged prism]

you got your work cut out for you if you want level 30 weapons then

[thin oasis]

Use the build guide here, pinned in the build advice section. Don't trawl youtube for them as 99% of them are trash.

Expertise 30 isn't really a goal at your level, and its not needed for builds to work.

[jagged prism]

level 30 expertise stuff is going to take you a long while and being at 1k+ shd helps you with the materials
but it's not neccesarily needed. just nice to have that 30% boost

[sharp gulch]

Thanks yall, happy new year💕

[jagged prism]

maybe post this in Rainbow Six Siege discord? think they'd be the only ones that cares about

[sharp gulch]

just get unbanned

[toxic lily]

Yeah this place is for us in a simulation for the next pandemic to come lol

[thin oasis]

I mean, derailing topics is probably why.

This channel is not for R6S

[jagged prism]

or they're jsut a spammer/scammer

[thin oasis]

Now I see why...

[jagged prism]

@tender wave @quaint acorn someone wants to get banned here #td2-general-chat message

[toxic lily]

This group ain't for operators. This is us doing simulation what to do when the pandemic comes

[dire ravine]

Wait you can get banned just for telling someone to shut up

[thin oasis]

I doubt it lol

[tender wave]

@solemn gorge you're welcome to post non-Division-related stuff in #off-topic-discussions

[jagged prism]

well, they got banned in Rainbow Six Siege discord, but then continue their "trolling" behavior of not abiding by the rules set out for this discord

[dire ravine]

Was gonna say I've seen much worse here

[tender wave]

Personal attacks are unnecessary and unwelcome however

[thin oasis]

I mean, TD2 and TD1 is more "What NOT to do during a pandemic" i feel lol

[jagged prism]

yes, pretty much how i feel about it honestly

[shadow grotto]

This game is so bad. I want a refund ASAP.

[dire ravine]

Cool

[jagged prism]

didn't bother to look for the demo and try it that way before commiting to buying it?

[thin oasis]

It literally does. 8 hours of play.

[dire ravine]

Which seems to be often

[shadow grotto]

No it doesnt?

[thin oasis]

Free trial of Division 2 is available on ALL platforms.

Anyway, since the pair of you are here only to troll. Later.

[quaint acorn]

https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/the-division/the-division-2/free-trial

[fervent cobalt]

Xbox has a free trial, it is very visible. Also is 75% off right now. Pretty good

[shadow grotto]

Watch your mouth buddy
Youre on thin ice

[jagged prism]

not to mention Xbox Game Pass has Division 2 in it

[shadow grotto]

Trust me none of you would want to see me get MAD

[south topaz]

with the new ram/ssd prices playing games on game pass would be cheaper soon

[quaint acorn]

You wont last long, I'll tell you that

[dire ravine]

So anybody having fun farming Krampus ye trying desperately to change topics

[tacit yoke]

lmao i love this reaction "didnt i just do 2 bounties with you"

"yes i said i have 5 more after this"

[thin oasis]

I dunno, gamepass prices are ridiculous lol

[fervent cobalt]

I had some pretty good luck, and even helped someone on xbox to get the oro, regulus and eb recently. Felt nice

[thin oasis]

🍿

[dire ravine]

Nice. I've been holding on to keys to help new ps players if they need anything

[open scarab]

Fix your broken game I just got DC'd looting a random bag on the floor, WHO KNOWS WHAT WAS IN THERE... SMH /s

[fervent cobalt]

Yeah what i was doing, once i get a little stack of keys i make a post and see if anyone is hunting. Feels good specially with the event

[jagged prism]

i got my 25 apparels, got the krampus mask and outfit. not much left for me to do for farming them honestly

[jagged prism]

devs are here but i doubt they read this discord much

[dire ravine]

Same I don't need anything just to share with other players

[dire ravine]

How long does event go I don't remember. I'll post in a few cords before it ends

[thin oasis]

6th jan

[fervent cobalt]

Another 2 weeks roughly

[dire ravine]

Ty

[jagged prism]

mentioned you in #ask-td2-community with an ingame picture of when the event ends

[fervent cobalt]

Honestly from my personal experience (at least on the pve end) people are pretty nice about helping others out and especially the newer players. Good community

[dire ravine]

Facts

There's nothing I really need in game and just cool to help out new players

[jagged prism]

nods if i was upto it. i'd run a DH with someone to drop an eagle bearer, but i'm rarely in that mood. i just jump on from time to time

[dire ravine]

I don't have provactor but I'm good with that

[jagged prism]

but it can be pretty fun running with that solo 😹

think i had a provacator + 4 Aegis build once and was pretty fun face tanking most things

[dire ravine]

I'll def get it at some point n nice I'll try that build

[tacit yoke]

nooo curse you delta 3

[sullen viper]

maybe i didnt like specify, seheral walls in a area where no enemy spawn or can even get to because its before a drop into a sort of arena

[jagged prism]

think dorky's statement still stands. poor covered area or you got flanked to your left or right while you're focusing in one direction

[hollow hill]

we call that a: skill issue

[hybrid ore]

It's worth remembering: that the vast majority of players in div2 are not exactly running fully kitted-out meta setups with 500 Incursion clears and a time-trial speed run record.

There is a skill issue, in that they're still learning how it all works. This game is incredibly dense, it's quite tricky to get past the early game.

[thin oasis]

Iirc this was a conversation concerning his ally "lagswitching" in PvE. To which my response was that wouldnt affect you personally and certainly wouldn't allow enemies to shoot you through cover

[lament light]

Supply drop is not working ??

[hollow hill]

I mean, if you take general shooter tactics of "not getting shot" and knowing how angles and sight lines work, division becomes dead easy that you can use virtually any build and do just fine as long as it has some damage

now if youre just running around as armored up as a piece of paper and dying constantly, with zero awareness of how cover and angles work, then thats a different story 💀

[hybrid ore]

It's only "dead easy", when you have the knowledge base to support your play.

Which someone who is new or just unaware of the deeper mechanics would not.

[thin oasis]

You need to own all control points in one area (green) before a supply drop will spawn.

If it doesnt spawn after time you can force a new instance by travelling to NY or Brooklyn and back

[hybrid ore]

Being 100% honest: before I joined this server I was missing that, I used to use 3 pieces of a gearset, or overcap crit, or even just rainbow stats all the way.

[hollow hill]

I guess it depends on how new to the shooter genre's said newbies are. I started off with a striker ninjabike build which wasnt terrible for what it was

[lament light]

It is not working too if force a new instance

[tropic badge]

I keep getting delta 03 and can't figure out how to fix it

[hollow hill]

ive been playing shooter games since I was about 4 and cycling from cod to division in late 2022 was a breeze. the builds were what confused me

[thin oasis]

AWS was having issues a few days ago, not sure if it was ever fixed

[hollow hill]

I was also a gears of war player too so cover shooter games were a quick pickup for me too. to somebody who hasnt played them before, definitely takes time getting used to

[thin oasis]

Its just down to RNG, keep taking control points and keep an eye on the map

[tropic badge]

It's like constant, I can't finish one krampus bounty

[thin oasis]

Sounds like an issue your end if its constant

Or possibly with the server cluster you're connected to

[hollow hill]

could be the servers are down in their area or having issues

[hybrid ore]

I've actually been having internet issues the last few days myself, regardless where I'm connected via the VPN.
I wouldn't be shocked if there were some hiccups over the xmas break.

[jagged prism]

really not much you can do honestly
i know way back was told to turn off overlays. Ubisoft included, i did and i rarely get delta crashes

[hollow hill]

there is a chance their ISP could be overflooded as well due to the christmas traffic. my area is getting hit constantly

GB/s internet but we maybe see 400 MB/s. thats how flooded traffic can get

[jagged prism]

nods christmas traffic. we'll probably see NYE traffic as well honestly

[hollow hill]

wonder how bad it is in Brooklyn rn 🤣

[tropic badge]

It has been a christmas break thing, I wasn't having near this many problems earlier in the month

[jagged prism]

fast travel there and find out? 😹

[hollow hill]

woah when did the targeted loot timer get added to the TL toggle? thats new

[thin oasis]

Did they fix the mouse wheel scrool yet?

[hybrid ore]

I finally have access to a decent net speed nowadays, and yeah even my new speed has been choppy since the latter half of december.
So it's a global thing. I wouldn't assume it was div or ubi-related.

[thin oasis]

As I said, AWS was having issues again during December. So it's probably related to that

[hybrid ore]

All Weather Sailors?

[lament light]

@thin oasis for me during after force an instance always stay appearing krampus event and not supply drop

[hollow hill]

pshhh no 🤣 you think theyll fix it that fast? we're all dreaming

[thin oasis]

Amazon Web Services, around a third of all internet cloud services use it

[jagged prism]

true 🤔 not sure when i saw things about it having issues, but was fairly recent so it's probably getting caught up

[hollow hill]

they might have a fix ready for the next patch update. it is possible. they do know about it

[hybrid ore]

Here in australia, we installed new copper cables instead of full fibre optics, so I think that's a bit beyond what my issues are here.

[hollow hill]

copper cables will only last so long and they only transfer so fast. but honestly any kinda upgrade is an upgrade

[jagged prism]

supply drops as dorky said. you gotta capture all the control points in the area and just wait or fast travel to an area and back to hopefully force one to spawn

it's always a chance. not a guarantee spawn

[thin oasis]

Krampus bounty and supply drops are completely different events.

[tropic badge]

You can see I put my results from cloudfare speed test in #unofficial-troubleshooting , it's not my internet

[hybrid ore]

Well, they installed fibre between giant ugly nodes on the footpath, but left the copper to each house. The copper that's been there since it was originally installed.
so let's just say that "upgrade" was not exactly the word we felt like using at the time.

[jagged prism]

probably not for you, but your data still has to traverse other areas that might've been affected

[thin oasis]

If Amazon web services is having issues (they appear to have had security attempts again during December) then almost all cloud services will have issues

[hybrid ore]

I can confirm that it's not just div, as I've had problems across most online services.

[jagged prism]

not sure what part of krampus you're having, the krampus lauf always spawns for me, as for getting the krampus bounty it's a chance they drop it or not. so you'd have to keep trying

don't think it's something you pickup though. it just gets added to your bounty

[hybrid ore]

Suppy Drops spawn more frequently if you control all of an area, so try capturing all the CP's+clearing out the surrounding area of red activities to increase the rate.
Krampus Bounties do have to be picked up. Each of the Krampus Squad of 4 enemies can drop 1 (up to 4 in total), you can see it if you walk slowly towards their dropped loot.

[jagged prism]

i'd say chances are you got a bunch

well, i'm thinking picked up like you visit the snitch and they drop a bounty on the ground and you gotta press F to collect it kind of deal, but yeah probably gotta run to all the krampus lauf's death to pick it up automatically

[hybrid ore]

The Snitch is a different system entirely.

You 100% do not pick it up automatically unless you walk over the bounty. You don't just get it by existing in the same area.

[jagged prism]

i understand, i'm just saying i doubt the krampus bounty is like how the snitch gives bounties

[hybrid ore]

@stable rover You're looking for #lfg-pc, GL Agent

[tropic badge]

Krampus bounty is picked up by walking over it like resource drops, not like other bounties were you have to actually loot them

[fair summit]

I'm back on the game, I last left in 2019? Before any expansions released, came back and starting from level 30 on battle for brooklyn. Do I not worry about any builds and just level up to 40? Starting all new back on pc though, lost all my knowledge concerning the game. haha

[serene solar]

Technically just level to 40 and worry about Builds then. Has been a long time since i upgraded my Crafting Bench etc myself., but potentially make sure to extract useful Talents / Stat Rolls into your Library in the Tinkering Station. Apart from that just equip the "best" stuff until you are 40 🙂

[fair summit]

That's assuring, ty. I'ma just do main stuff and whatnot to level.

Honestly, I'm surprised a Div3 isn't out by now.

[jagged prism]

thank you, not sure how me explaining picking it up automatically by going to their dead bodies to get the bounty was overlooked

[jagged prism]

brooklyn is a level 40 area, but like Tekk Priest said, get to 40 first then goto #td2-build-advice pins in the upper right hand corner is a spreadsheet of known good builds. striker is usually the first thing to obtain for fresh 40's then you can work on the others that piques your interest

[fair summit]

ok

[jagged prism]

pretty sure a good majority of the player base is used to the latter Loot bounty system with this one, which i thought i was explaining but being told "snitch is a different system"

[tranquil spire]

They need to fix the shepherd ui because I joined a guy for the Capitol in normal, my ass ended in a legendary diff, I couldn't even pass the first wave 😭

[jagged prism]

it tells you the difficulty they're calling for help for in the map

[tranquil spire]

Yeah, it said normal diff 😭

[jagged prism]

they may have called for help on normal, changed it to legendary and tried to start it. said first wave. so they probably took the call for help vs matchmake

[tranquil spire]

Oooh I see, I really thought this was a ui bug, I saw those white tusk and got confused

I can't help anyone on that diff, I can barely beat a solo heroic right now 😭

[jagged prism]

was going to say could be this weeks legendary run, but it's zoo this week so not capitol 😹

[south topaz]

leg zoo with randoms is so much fun

[jagged prism]

not true if you run a healer build 😹 you'll be plenty useful for just existing and randomly shooting your team mates with chem launchers

[jagged prism]

something people should try i assume?

[tranquil spire]

That's why I got super confused, I thought it might be heroic because for some reason I believed that legendary were only available for the weekly project, I ran in, saw the WT, proceeded to get lobed by 20 grenades in a row and died lmao

[jagged prism]

nah. legendary is in summit and the 4 Strongholds

[tranquil spire]

I wanted to switch for my healer build but I had stashed it to make room for farming haha

It also lacks the datagloves so it might not be as good as if I had them

[south topaz]

sure try it 😁

[tranquil spire]

That shit is haaaaaard too, like I do a fair bit of damage but I couldn't peak for more that 2 sec before I got domed too

[jagged prism]

nah, the data gloves is more of an icing for the build honestly. the let me throw hive far away from myself, destroy it and overcharge your and your team skills

[tranquil spire]

Also not knowing anything about what happens in those missions doesn't help

[jagged prism]

nods why i don't care to do legendaries. did the 3 strongholds before zoo was added for the white dye and big horn then no need to do legendary honestly 😹

[south topaz]

for leg zoo i prefer measured assembly healer as blocking those bombing drones for everyone helps

[tranquil spire]

Is MA or FI better for a healer build ? (Wrong chat I know)

[south topaz]

FI

[jagged prism]

they both have there pros and cons, but FI is just more consistent to me

[tranquil spire]

So 4P FI Setup and BTSU is the one to run ?

[jagged prism]

it's the ideal setup with Set Up backpack and scorpio

[tranquil spire]

I have a Setup but I'm stuck with a HP regen so I might need to farm for a new one

So I can be full RP with my LMB medic attire hahaha

[jagged prism]

i'd say make due with whatever you have. can get an Alps backpack with Opportunistic until you get that magical setup one with haste and repair on it. don't recall if it drops iwth skill tier or armor honestly, and just recal the core to skill tier

[simple spoke]

guys will we get a new season on 2026? can I find a roadmap for this? long time I didnt join the game

[jagged prism]

probably marchish?

[simple spoke]

I heard about an anniversary on 2026

[jagged prism]

yeah, if you live in Japan

or you goto japan for FPS Day X convention

[thick yarrow]

so i looked at the pestilence build that works this season but it kinda works mainly since the CoCo gearset is still bugged

[jagged prism]

i honestly have no idea what people do for that as i haven't seen anything better than the highend build i have running for it currently

[thick yarrow]

mainly due to the stacking not triggering unless you unequip a piece of the CoCo set and re equip it again

[jagged prism]

i'd imagine it's 4 coco, 1 ceska and whatever for the 6th piece be it a highend backpack or overdogs

[thick yarrow]

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1WChAQCX06I4wgHd3iU0BuearJps2Lnr5wvLVehb8utY/edit?tab=t.0#heading=h.84510325k0as
its this

from the spreadsheet

[jagged prism]

yeah, still no clue reading it.
if you're solo that might be the major issue as it's a set based on being in a group of sorts. so you'd have to improvise via, hoping your companion helps or going skills

[south topaz]

coco is damn good, its slow but good, got 136 kills in leg zoo with it, 4 pc coco, equalizer, overdog = 2 M pesti ticks

[jagged prism]

i call hacks 😹 but yeah i still don't see the appeal with it honestly, but one day i'll probably convert

[south topaz]

appeal is in group it takes 5-6 min to gain full stack, then u don't lose it so slow that for whole mission u can enjoy 105% weapon dmg, and pesti ticks r based on weapon damage so it workd crazy good with coco

[jagged prism]

for now i enjoy the highend pestilence considering i farmed the hell out of the backpack for it

[south topaz]

in heroic it takes 2-3 min to gain full stack

[umbral dock]

lengmo unicorns are such a pain

glad we don’t have to do that anymore

[jagged prism]

i'm glad i got my chance/damage lengmo backpack with the perfect talent and swapped the armor to weapon core 😹

you ask me to farm that for 3 more alts i'd tell you where to go 😹 one piece is enough for me to lose my mind

[dire gorge]

i have come back into the game, at level 30. And there is the really annoying voice that just keeps talking. Stuff like this is more boring than my day job. And is just complaining. How do i stop this. Thank you

he is damn bored as well!

[alpine lantern]

turn off dialogue volume in audio settings..

[floral hearth]

I'm new to the game and just got to level 40. I put a set of gear together, but I just want some direction on what to complete on my map, as once I hit 40 it seems there's all these things popping up and I don't know what to do/prioritise.

[alpine lantern]

max level all attributes.. fill up your gear library.. max lvl expertise..

[floral hearth]

Working on it. Specifically in the way of missions/map content etc. what should be done?

[alpine lantern]

It depends on what you are looking for at the moment.. look at the map for targeted loot and farm what you currently need..

[floral hearth]

I have Invaded missions all over my map, a lot of the control points etc. I already captured are now not captured anymore. One of the settlements got taken back over it looks like. Are any of those things important?

There's also heaps of side missions and main missions around the main map too

[alpine lantern]

they will take over your settlement until you finish the invaded stronghold.. complete three invaded missions and then invaded stronghold..

[floral hearth]

I see, okay thank you

[dire gorge]

thanks, that shut him up!

[alpine lantern]

[quiet dagger]

To max level all attributes i should use the tinkering station.. right?

[fast bone]

has anyone gotten "The Sleigher" sub machine gun?

[jagged prism]

only if you already extracted it off a piece of gear otherwise you can only go as high as your library has for extracted attributes

[fast bone]

It'll allow me to max out Damage to Armor on the tinker station, but i'm wondering if it's worth keeping for any other reason.

[jagged prism]

if you see my message. i was replying to someone else......

[fast bone]

yess that's fine. i'm asking in general about "The Sleigher" and mentioning what it allows.

[jagged prism]

all i see is you asking if anyone gotten one, then you replied to me when i was replying someonelse's question about max level attributes.....#td2-general-chat message

[fast bone]

no reply. just a comment. in general.

[fast bone]

this would be a reply to you.

[jagged prism]

yeah, discord is going over your head in general......

[fast bone]

fml. okay just.. stop. good bye. anyone else know of "The Sleigher"?

[quiet dagger]

If i want to max my weapons attributes.. should i extract them from another weapon or any piece of gear?

[jagged prism]

ohhh, main character syndrome! everyone answers you even if they don't answer you?

[fast bone]

you literally did just that. earlier.

[quiet dagger]

I am a complete noob.. i showed my build to someone yesterday and they laughed so hard

[jagged prism]

all you need is one of each weapon type with a max level AKA Max weapon damage on Assault Rifle, SMG, Shot gun extracted the model of hte weapon doesn't matter

[jagged prism]

yeah if you read my message you'd see i was replyign to Mitsui about max attributes. but you think i'm replying to you for some odd reason.....

[serene solar]

whats the "fastest" CP to run 443 times? 😄

[jagged prism]

i'd tell you if i could remember, but i know it's one particular area

[serene solar]

Yeah, i kinda forgot aswell - but i figured i'd get the BPs out of the way sooner rather than later :/

(also with Krampuslauf appearing, some CP's tend to be a little annoying at times)

[alpine lantern]

toxic alley / downtown west.. If you position yourself well, the hostiles will come straight to the firing line.. you won't even have to move from cover..

[jagged prism]

@serene solar looks like a few are listed in Reddit post here

[jagged prism]

for me, my companion kills me by aggroing everything around it 😹

[quiet dagger]

I see.. thanks! This is something i overlooked for quite some time.. i though weapon damage was all i need to look for until i saw other players using weapons with like 100k to 150k DPS taking down enemies easily while i was struggling with my 900k DPS rifles 😂

[serene solar]

Thanks ill try those. And also thanks @jagged prism ill take a look at the post

[jagged prism]

game is heavily in builds. if you're trying to do things like chance and headshot damage, you're really stretching yourself thin compared to other people who focused on say headshot and weapon handling

[serene solar]

also having the right amount of multiplicative damage modifiers instead of just additive modifiers helps a ton in doing more damage than you have "on paper"

[jagged prism]

nods something like that too. i never learned the multi/addative bit

you throw math formulas in my face i fall asleep

[serene solar]

Dont worry, i'm too lazy to write math formulas anyways 😄

[quiet dagger]

I have come to understand that builds are really important very recently after reaching end game activities 😅
I used to have assault rifles because they have higher fire rate and big magazines.. but since i wasn't dealing great damage and one NPC take ages to kill.. i switched to rifle and only shoot from long range

[quiet dagger]

What are those modifiers?

[jagged prism]

if we were in the #td2-build-advice i'm sure @sly tundra would put up his gif of a healing chem launcher hitting a head for 50 million damage

[sullen viper]

the chatterbox is a handheld A10

[jagged prism]

the easiest 2 i know of are Fox's Prayer Kneepads and Contractor's Gloves

Hollowman Mask was the third piece you wanted in your build but they nerfed it so now hollowman is just stash space or materials

[serene solar]

Weapon Damage for example is always additive - Damage to Armor, Damage to Health, Damage to Targets Out of Cover, and Total Weapon Damage are both Additive and Multiplicative (e.g. Multiplicative with Weapon Damage, but if you use Damage to Armor Twice thats additive with itself). Amplified Damage is always multiplicative

[jagged prism]

my brain falls asleep 😴

[quiet dagger]

I'll keep this in mind

[jagged prism]

hence the reason i said the 2 i know of is fox's prayer which has Damage to Target out of Cover in it and Contrator's Gloves which has Damage to Armor in it

holloman has damage to health

[serene solar]

Sadist + Wicked = ❤️ XD

[jagged prism]

think my OD has the OD backpack since i do a highend chest with overdogs 🤔

[small spear]

i wouldn't be bogged down with this unless you get into theorycrafting, it's something you only need to know if you come up with your own builds

[jagged prism]

if you want to go the Non-Meta builds or you're trying something different

[small spear]

once you practice doing it you would naturally know how damage works

[serene solar]

Yes and no, if you just copy builds thats fine but sometimes you still need gear etc., then knowing what helps might be beneficial

[small spear]

i mean the general playerbase will just ask in #td2-build-advice

we only explain if they ask cuz otherwise they'd be bogged down with info they don't care about

[jagged prism]

mrchow would throw out his gif of him doing 50 million headshot damage with a healing chem launcher there 😹

[small spear]

we get asked questions like "is overdogs good" a lot more than "is overdogs an amp? how does an amp work?"

[jagged prism]

or like 2 seasons ago "how do i get a Yaahl chest with glass cannon or Obliterate" because youtubers post videos but no explanation on how to find the pieces

then people like averageplayer has to reeducate those people "yaahl /haz pro isn't needed" but they don't understand that for some odd reason 😹

[edgy fable]

I'll take HazPro over less CHD in most scenarios with Backfire

[open scarab]

I'm just shooting stuff and pressing the loot button

Green up arrow good, red down arrow bad

[thin oasis]

The thing with using Backfire with no Hazpro is most average players (not THE AveragePlayer) won't get the best out of it because they'll panic or fail to keep up their stacks

[jagged prism]

i understand what you guys are saying for it, but i just don't like the slow run we do while we're bleeding so i'd rather go to the point i have bleed resist

[thin oasis]

And a high stack bleed on a full red with no protection if they don't use it properly can be a death sentence

[edgy fable]

Exactly

[jagged prism]

but again, that's just me which i made a build for backfire for that season that worked well for me 😹

[thin oasis]

Backfire even using hazpro still hits like a truck. Just hits harder if you use those hazpro attributes elsewhere that's all

[jagged prism]

was purely high end build. met the bleeding resist threshhold and still had the 60% chc and think double or nearly double damage in it

i'd be tempted to put it in a CoCo or maybe umbra build? 🤔 i know dimminishing returns because of the 400% crit damage would be just funny to see that amount

[serene solar]

wanted to farm Blueprints since im missing too many and got stuck in conflict... rip me xD

[hushed warren]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[livid juniper]

Sad days. Server just shutdown

[jagged prism]

i forget honestly, but i think it was bounties or just named NPCS in brooklyn in general could drop it

[serene solar]

Yeah just farm via Bridge Park Pier Mission
Port - Turn around kill boss repeat on respawn 😄

[small spear]

no, only Charlie open world boss or the named Marauder in the final brooklyn mission

[jagged prism]

Ah, so was one specific boss? Good to know

Think yter were saying any open world Brooklyn boss

[floral hearth]

Is there a place to request help with missions on this discord? I've tried to do this a few times and can't beat it, tried calling for backup many times but not getting anything

[thin oasis]

#lfg-pc

What are you looking for help with, out of curiosity

[jagged prism]

LFG down below, but i hear it's dead so going to say GCRock, DJTickle or other stream discords

[floral hearth]

Okay thank you

[floral hearth]

Just posted it. It's just a normal mission I am struggling with

[thin oasis]

Give me 5 minutes

[jagged prism]

oh god that manhunt

[thin oasis]

Eh it's not the worst, certainly not the worst lol

[floral hearth]

Sweet, thanks. My ign is jayjayhxc

[jagged prism]

oh i know, just not fun if you ask me

[thin oasis]

Neither is Theo Parnell space one....but I dragged people through that as well lmao

[jagged prism]

i hate that one with a passion especially with the modifiers on

[thin oasis]

It's by a long way the hardest master mission imo

[jagged prism]

oh right, i was going to say wasn't hornet tough but that's just manhunt wasn't it 😹

the camp oak one

[thin oasis]

Just loading the game up

[floral hearth]

No problem!

[jagged prism]

but there is a problem. time is money (> <)

[floral hearth]

Time is definitely not money when I am playing this game lol

[jagged prism]

i mean it depends. how much time do you have to play the game today or in general. for some it is time is money

[quick meadow]

Anyone I can tag along with? Just reinstalled the game yesterday. Need to get my SHD lvl up

[jagged prism]

👇 LFG channels down below

[quick meadow]

Sorry posted in the wrong one.

[jagged prism]

generally it's best to wait for those 5X or 3X xp leveling events

[south topaz]

theo modifiers r way better than current season one, i would take one shot build, equip tapper and get 150+ kill everytime i help someone with tapper i don't need headhunter stacks nor vigilance

[quick meadow]

Just wanting to do something.

[jagged prism]

think the only one i hate is the close quarter modifier in that mission

[round oar]

Does Ouroboros get a reconfig blueprint if you get it the normal way?

[jagged prism]

should i'd imagine. gotta visit Inaya near the crafting bench in DC

[round oar]

Oh I forgot she exists lmao, I'll check in on her then

[serene solar]

i wish oro would drop from the winter chect for me.. seriously the only exotic i want :x

[edgy fable]

Your alternative is to run the incursion
