just go and check casie
Im pretty sure yall hurd the news that the guy in charge is leaving division. He is going to battlefield. But they did clarified that everything is still being developed the div 3 the survivors and so on
Makes me think is bf gonna try make a division type game but bf
i think they sell the exact same stuff but in e-credits instead of countdown requisition
ah ok
I have to say it now…. I want a Mandalorian apparel….
yeah, we have 2 months and 1 week (9 weeks) of this season to go through still and not all events are in there yet. they may add more xp events and seasonal xp events and other kinds of events, probably DZ and Conflict as well
there's probably a site or something that shows what all vendors sells and it gets updated every week i believe?
I wonder if we are getting RE collab again since RE Requiem is coming out next month
we didn't get any when re4 remake came out so /shrug
think if we did, they'd already annouce it, so chances are probably not
hope event comes back
we've probably had many chances but maybe it's a capcom "one time deal" so who knows though outside of ubisoft employees 
#ask-td2-community message
think there was another before this post
https://x.com/i/status/2012157010784186856
Anyone seen this yet? 😳
Last week just watched the interview with him about Div3
this is such an odd move by him and Ubisoft. why do an interview knowing that you are resigning and also laying off 55 employees...
That's a curveball for sure.
is there a known issue with Descent where it randomly throws you in the starting room?
yes
Stonks
it's a bricked run, have to restart
Well that sucks. Descent feels boring enough to me already i was just doing it to get the Vindicator and now this lol
luckily you just need 3 nemesis runs to get it so it's not much to struggle with
cool cool
It's very Stingy with giving NSA creds damn
We know where that went with RSix… I want so bad to mail their game… “you can have this disaster back”
Maybe he did not have the offer yet and ubisoft wanted him to give assurances to players
could've also had the offer and was thinking on it, ubi wants to go a different route than he intended to so he took the offer for Dice
or Dice just gave him a higher paying offer
Rarest item in game. 5% damage mod for cluster mine. I've seen one in 2.5k hours.
😭
Got a couple max mods but whenever i get one its 's allways for a skill or stat i don't use 😂
Missing a max skill haste mod for the seeker
Foe me 13% pfe, I feel people with edited thier posts to show 13 but they're 11's or 12's 😹
I've quite a few of those. I'd trade 3 for one 5% damage for my little seekers
oops my bad. I've onlt one of those. I've several 13% cdmg
12% CHD is max
mmm, let me check what my 13's are then. I'm old and easily confused
13% is PfE max
so i havent played since like the first year what should i do after the main story missions? jw
Pick a build, or builds, you wanna play and go farm for it/them. Countdown is a good start I'd say.
A solid DPS build with Striker's is a great choice to start with
I can't find any 13's. If I still have them, they must be in a piece of gear still. least I know what to look for now, pfe and not cdmg.
https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-nOwUSECa-1iLhET-mW04u6oMBdIdMjFjB2Ie25ziEA/mobilebasic
Take a look at these builds
cool thanks
also will it tell me when to switch world levels?
You can change the OW difficulty once you finished the main campaign and beat all three strongholds IIRC
@south valley Just to confirm, we no longer have "world tiers", you just go from Lvl 30-40 normally, anywhere you're playing.
cool cool thanks for th info
I just joined this server last night after only now finally getting into this series recently
I'm sorry guys, it's all my fault 😔
it's a game, it's made to be enjoyed so no issues
Hello
I’m a little late to this channel but wanted to ask if Ubisoft “ td2 gonna end up like EA “ Anthem”?
EA sunset their game on the 12th of this month and with all that’s going on 🤷
Anthem was dead on arrival and is unrelated to this franchise
I know just curious
Anthem lasted a year or so, as mentioned above, this game has a proud history of seven
game is standing strong and get new content at somewhat steady pace
game did so well that they cancelled the plan to shut it down back in year 2
What is the best way for a relatively new player to get into pvp?
Does anyone talk anywhere in this channel, looking to add people for PvE content and to grind gear with. Yet no one replies 😒 what's that about 🙄😅
Man I’m doing the Hunters in warlords of New York … and waiting for the in game clock to get to the time it needs to is crazy with it stalling
It can be a while before it gets to the next hour then sometimes it feels like it goes by fast
Thats rough man, not done hunters yet rough from what I've seen
Hence looking for a solid group to play the game with, just no one replies to any request so its rough
the division producer left to go help put at bf studios
not sure if this makes sense, im sure there would have been someone from iw that could help out bf studios
Surprised everyone
i dont think its bad for the franchise
everything thats coming is more or less set in stone
Why does it say I gotta Upgrade my game?
Context maybe?
do you own the game or were playing from a pass?
I was paying for free
sorry, come again?
what is the last floor of the summit where you can change the settings and what is the last floor you can invite players
You can go to lobby at any point
and change diff and invite players?
Also from lobby at any point, or at any elevator every three floors
thought it could only change it every 10
Any time you go to lobby or change any settings, you'll go back to the last checkpoint (floor ending in 0,3,6,9). You can invite players at any point though.
ah thanks wanted to get to 99 then change to hero
You can change at 100
sweet thanks
Can someone explain the Scorpio stacks. Does it take 9 shots to the target to get that 20% or is it 9 pellets
what was that mask exotic from brooklyn?
shots
catalyst
Catalyst
Army Terminal mission or open world boss called "Charlie" is where you can get it from
So you have to reload and shoot an extra shot that kind of stinks lol
it used to be lower but that made the gun so OP that you could stunlock everything
Game pass or wherever you get the game from should tell you how to
Buy the game...
The trial version only gives you two hours of gameplay iirc
The normal Ome?
Whichever edition suits your fancy
Elite?
Id recommend waiting for a sale if it isn't already on one though cuz it can be very cheap
knew it was something like that as i got catharsis and thought huh that sounds like i heard it before
Help I'm stuck!
I think I just finished the first of the Coney Island missions. I got to and opened the containment. Where do I go from there
back to the safe house and into the other mission, no?
houndsman outfit was only a halloween promo? is it no longer obtainable?
Hey Agents, anyone know how to turn off the auto deconstruct in the mods menu? I'm trying to craft the broken watches
it will return to the store someday
ah ok. I guess thats what I get for going on a hiatus lol
Menu > Inventory > Mods > Whatever the PS4 button is to toggle the option on the bottom right.
what manhunt do i do for a chance to get tempest
i still have a krampus bounty i thought that ended or does it not drop keys or something
tempest is from the summit in tidal basin
you can still do it, just you don't get any keys though
ah
legit just had an 8 person lobby drop out of CD int oa 4 person lobby...
Good
Countdown is the best way to farm an equalizer right
also completely unrelated how do i recall my repair drone back to me after i sent it to another player
Countdown, retaliations
Double tap the activate button
retal in a united alloy region would be juicy
You set your own target loot in retaliations
@dense mica #1380126780152614944 would love to hear them!
@dense mica No self promo, just post it in the right place.
It thinks it's spam, because it's absolutely massive.
Just break it up a little.
I haven't gamed on pc in years, whayz the fastest way to boost expertise donatinf weapons ? Or a specific material like whats the beat bang for the buck?
There isnt any faster way. There use to be for material farming and going over the cap limit but that was fixed. Sorry dude
yeah i remmeer the muule accounts thanks dude i guess i just got to grind
Yep im nearly Expertise 29 its a hell off grind because they keep putting more gear and weapons added to it. It's a pain
at least ur 29 im 0 lol fml
Tbh I will be really honest. Expertise is overrated
No. Expertise on a weapon gives a 30% boost to base damage.
Absolutely not a waste
We all are entitled to an opinion
You're entitled to be factually wrong yes
Here they come
It's a boost to a gun's damage. While expertise isn't needed, it's definitely helpful in nearly all forms of content
PvP over balanced
I stopped playing PvP due to lack of balancing and yeah the expertise got annoying in dz
Levelling up armour is a general waste of resources unless you have nothing else to spent it on.
Damage is calculated into the millions in Division 2. All boosts are good.
Considering we got loads of sources for damage pools, it's almost a question of why not expertise your guns, yk?
Just disable it in Dark Zone. It is unfair to those that are under expertise. And the 1s that are currently at there level and gear and weapons at there level aswel you get shredded
It's overrated
It's unfair
Which is it bro
Weapon expertise is the least of your problems in PVP.
True sons refusing to spawn any convoys while i'm trying to do the scouts i'm gonna go crazy
Fast travel to NY and back.
It will force the DC map to load a new instance
In all honesty the expertise system in pvp is very unbalanced. It basically rewards whoever played the longest will usually deal more damage. So that means a level 20k SHD with 30 expertise on his bighorn Regen build will do a whopping 2 whole damage cores more damage than I would do on a 0 expertise build
and if it's night it doesn't spawn much, wait for the day cycle
Done that twice 😭
I myself am expertise 30 and I find myself expertising my pvp gear less and less because it's just not fun
PVP is generally unfun anyway when most of the players are cheating 🤣
Cronus
On PC it's full on cheats so 😂
Yep. Was doing DZ project a couple weeks ago.
Guy using the EXACT Bighorn regen headshot build that I was wearing. Even down to using the same skills.
Killed me before he even lost a bar of armour and I shot first lmao
If I knew the player name I'd be able to tell you immediately if they're a known cheater
There was a video that a person shared on Division 2s tweet the otherday. He was in Conflict and this enemy player shot him through a wall with 1 shot.
Depends on which map on conflict. Some maps you can fully shoot thru walls. Conflict is filled with exploits
And they do nothing about it. The whole game needs polishing its unfinished
The good news is they have pvp developers working on fixing at least the balancing of pvp
the solution is to not play pvp
Now, will they run up and ban cheaters? Maybe. Maybe not. But if they can at least balance out the pvp, it's a good step in the right direction. But they'll need to do one hell of a job to bring me back
Anti Cheat
The game has anti cheat.
As with most anti cheat, its just kernel bloatware.
If it has an anti cheat why arent the cheaters banned. Because the anti cheat doesn't exist like CallofDuty
Division 2 uses Easy Anti Cheat, which 100% does exist.
As with most anti cheats, it's just crap.
I dont believe.
Works pretty decent in Rust tho
Because it doesn't exist in Division 2
Because they actually care to configure it properly.
Yup they actually work with it
And its used. Plus you get a notification if you reported someone who got banned 😄
Most devs just slap it on to run with the game and enable to basic checks.
They don't actually work with it
Div 2's anti cheat is currently disabled
Cheaters are still customers I guess. They spend on cosmetics. Why drive a customer base away?
would love to know how they cheat
Because that customer base drives far more customers away than it brings in.
Common sense really.
Fair point. I don't pvp so don't really come across it or get affected by it. I was just adding my tuppence worth, useless thought in.😋
this really a isnt a nice topic to linger on, so i think it can stop here
Cheater only lobbies are a fantastic invention that Division 2 should add.
Don't ban them, but ensure that every instance of PvE and PvP they join is also full of cheaters.
That way, skill becomes a factor again and they can see how much they really suck lol
Sorry I was already typing it lmao
now back to waiting for the releases of sheriff shotgun
What's the point of the retaliation bundles and broken watches crafting?
convert materials
I fiend for it, a shotgun that actually works at range sounds wonderful
How do I get the tempest pistol
pact on master(100% drop chance) or summit floor 100 on heroic (33% drop chance)
@south topaz thankz
Just doing Art Museum for the first time. Those statues, optical illusions, coloured markers look like a hunter puzzle or something?
d
i have a question about the pestilence LMG
is it basically just a DPS build weapon disguised as a status weapon since it applies a debuff instead of an actual status
basically, but it's even more restrictive since some of the biggest amps don't apply to its debuff
if i want a good status build what exotic armament would i use, assuming i want something big and bulky like an LMG or a high cap AR
i usually do bullet king builds so im not too familiar with statuses
Check out maybe Eclipse build with a BK as back up weapon then
well im looking to use something a bit more unique than bk, also what's eclipse
eclipse is a set brand. I made a build a while back with Everlasting Gaze as my main weapon.
oh is eclipse the medical looking set that makes statuses spread on death?
I like Bluescreen for that. Iron Lung and Elmo also nice for some CC
what's iron lung, ik elmo's engine is the thunderous AR
I also ran seekers and stinger with it. Bleeds and burn
Thats a good shout mate. I've only recently come back and looking at my you tube video on eclipse, it was TU10. Time to maybe update some stuff.
last i played was when the new powerplant mission came out, not countdown but the seasonal one
i do know there's a hilarious set that makes your incendiary turret a whirlwind of fire
I stopped just after countdown released iirc. My last vids are 5 years old
idk if its a meme set or if its actually any decent tho
They don't all have to be meta. Drop world to challenging or lower and just have fun.
So many builds, so little time 😂
i'm trying to get a funny build i can use in raids and such, so i'd like it to be workable
basic striker as starter raid build if you dont have one
bird
the flamethrower set ix the exuro set i think
for one, how you been man, been a while,
and for two i thought striker was a raw dps build, not status based
yeah i think its Exuro Ortiz, its got a knight as its sigil i think, makes a flamer turret into a flaming spinning thing that detonates like a mine on death/expiry
knight simbol is a different gear set
its been like a year since ive played, i at least remembered ortiz exists
the knight simbol one is cavalier that boosts everyone's hazard protection
ah damnit, at least i knew there was a knight sigil, what's the ortiz sigil, a phoenix?
y
Which is weird, even ravenous explosion is affected by intimidate and the pest mark isnt.
what all exotics do you suggest if i want a status build
ye lol
someone mentioned iron lung, what's that do?
hi Which mods is best for bulwark and artificer
even EMP pulse applies vile, but pestmark just is a debuff for some nebulous reason
My theory of why people used to think pest was debuff is: burn, bleed and poison are all damage over time effects that appears as an orange square with a white symbol above npc's head. So if you were a new player, you would be thinking like: this weapon that releases a virus onto the enemy that deals damage over time, should be a status effect I think...
Plus, debuffs usually are red square symbols
all reason and logic says it ought to be a status effect, but the gun itself claims its a debuff and pestmark doesnt trigger vile
unless something changed since i last played, in no way does pestmark act like a status
Tbh I still prefer the pre WONY version of pest, back then it used to release a poison cloud that increases damage or something like that.
i think it should function like a regular status effect imo, i love chaining effects and status effects
i want to make a hilarious burning build that spreads fire wherever i go, so i'm probably gonna use eclipse set
it worked like an ultra oxi gas cloud but it had very bad gun stats
now it has mediocre gun stats and a wierd half debuff half status effect abomination
The stats are only bad bcs almost every exotic stats follows its high end version of the weapon.
Procuro jogadores para me ajudar no troféu de matar 20 agentes inimigos!

Apenas inglês no servidor, eu te ajudo com troféu, olha a DM.
hey armor is that old google sheets thing with all the weapon effects listed on there
Everlasting Gaze as weapon, and on my Eclipse, I use the Burn Sticky instead of the FireStarter for higher damage.
what's everlasting gaze, and is the old sheet still maintained
you've mentioned the weapon like 4 times but have yet to tell me what it actually is or does
you or someone else mentioned an lmg called iron lung earlier, what's that thing about and how would i get one
it got super buffed
really? does it work with vile and such now or is it still a wierd half status have debuff amalgam
no it doesnt work with vile
laaaaame
it's rof got increased by 200
oh cool, i love a fast lmg
hey bird i got a question, is that old google thing with every weapon and perk and such still around?
yes that thing, thank you
iron lung seems like it kinda sucks, you gotta spend half hte mag to even start doing anything unique
I can’t find memento backpack
just have to farm for backpacks
@still juniper sent you a link to some old status vids I did. May help motivate you.
hey sacrum imperium seems pretty good, a bunch of marks and just get a headshot kill to burn a bunch of targets?
Ravenous may work also if you can switch sides ok. But the 20% from Gaze outshines it.
ravenous doesnt actually do any statuses iirc, it just has a bunch of primers
i just got back in to the game and wanted to ask can i still get quick step
sacrum might be the worst exotic weapon
verdammt
the idea seems so cool though, is it just ass in execution since its headshot kills ONLY?
it has horrible stats
really? what is it?
extremely low damage, horrible spread, very highrecoil so you cant do fast follow up shots with a gun with low damage that demands headshots
oh that's so annoying, why couldnt they put it on something reliable like an SVD?
because there is already an exotic SVD
what about a bolt sniper then
i dont make the decisions
Hey is anyone willing to help me get back into this game and learn it all. I haven't played in a bit
a name like sacrum imperium is perfectly befitting an m700 huntsman
man, i think i'm just gonna use elmo's engine, doesnt it have synergy with some other stuff?
Just finished my first successful legendary mission on District Union!!
nice man, you do it solo or you bring a team?
@still juniper matchmade the best team of randoms that actually made it look easy
nice man, but you dont need to ping me i'm right here
Sorry my bad lol
Quicker way to get ninjabike backpack?
Quicker than what?
countdown is the main way to get stuff like that
The quickest way to get ninjabike is not getting it and using a real backpack
well perhaps the man is a collector looking to fill out his cache
If project done, danny weaver done as well, deconstruct exoctic gear/weapon as well, what other method or easily to get more exotic component? So far current method through countdown, but any other way? roaming around dz from one loot to another?
priority objectives with exotic item as reward
the raids in this game are like raids in destiny 2? or easier/harder?
similar in concept but its 8 man squads and you play cover instead of evasion
anyone know the solo speed time for summit all floors any dif/dir?
why is the server down, genuine reason or just maintenance
Server restart is local. You will just get transferred to a different server.
not good. we lost lol
If in doubt, restart your console, modem/router and see if that helps
Any news on the survival update?
You'd probably see something in #news-and-announcements
Overall easier/harder or similar diff?
that just depends on teh raid, both destiny and division
iron horse is kinda a puzzle raid, where it relies a lot on sequencing and callouts
dark hours is a combat heavy raid thats a lot of point defense
would say it's easier because our agents got so much new gear and power boosts in rebalances that the combat parts are less challenging than they used to be
I'm new to the game...do enemies in higher difficulties stop being bullet sponges if u build for it? If so how?
if anything they get more spongey, teh key is having a cohesive and effective build
i'm partial to skill and red builds, but there are tanks builds, support builds, and status builds too, and snipers
Red builds = weapon?
generally yeah, red builds seek to improve the damage and crit rate/damage of weaponry
Also how u change specializations? Since using the boost, I can't figure out :p
and provide buffs specific to the weapon they specialize in, so a sniper build wants lots of headshot damage, a pistol build generally wants headshot damage if its a regicide, lmg builds want raw fire down range, etc.
go talk to the guy at the desk in teh white house, he gives spec changes
The skill guy?
Ah k..and..to start getting items for builds we run countdown?
countdown is my favorite place but if you can swing it try to do the legendary mission, i think its DUA currently
do missions/activities scale with number of players?
go use the lfg
hey bird, i have a question about saint elmo's engine
doesnt it have a synergy with some peice of exotic armor and again with the shield?
Shocker Punch - Exotic holster
yeah, what does shocker punch do on its own and what's the synergy
The pinned spreadsheet in this channel has info on all items of the game. I don't remember SP on the top of my head.
Something to do with melee
the only things pinned in this channel are stuff about some creator event
Wait wrong channel lol #td2-build-advice
shocker punch on its own is ass, all it does is just reduce the stun from shock status
what the hell is smart cover?
new skill from Brooklyn DLC
theres another god damn dlc? how much does it cost and how many skills does it add?
battle for brooklyn 15$usd 1 smart cover ( 2 types)
154 dollars
what the hell does smart cover even do, is it like a deployable shield?
lol 15$ (4-$ same key )
it's on sale on steam -40% rn
one gives team Dmg outta cove when in cover the other gives you blue armor
It's always on sale somewhere for months now
also the catalyst mask seems terrible
i dont use anyof the stuff be my buddy have a kool dmg outta cover smart cover build
it is
ok but the gear seems ass
You decide if it is worth it to you personally
you get a bunch of missions, which I like, personally I think it's worth it
But a cheap, well made DLC should be considered
do we get cool new weapons?
also i'm right here, you dont need to ping me every time
on the dlc? No. But we get cool masks
masks
Hunterrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr masks
No wait, there is one weapon, the huntsman
what hte hell does snowfall do?
Snow Machine: Electrique
each status you apply will apply snowfall to the target
cosmetic effect
so its completely worthless
some people like effects
It's a fun item. You a bit pessimistic here, heh?
Overall I mean, dismissing everything you get to hear about the DLC 😄
i want to set stuff on fire, not make it slightly snowy
is the flamer turret worth it even without exuro ortiz?
It's annoying but does a good job if used right I would say
for exotics should i play countdown on heroic?
think i should spring for that or stick to ol reliable airburst rolly polly
yes, and make targeted loot the kind of item you want
Exotics can drop anywhere basically but CD is good for new players in general
whats territory control in prio objectives?
what's the real point of hte pakhan, its competing with The Bullet King for its shtick
territory control is an open world activity. (icon is two crossed guns)
how ye been kirra
higher burst damage, better handling
if you want an lmg like that you dont want burst you want ot keep laying down fire tho
BK has really terrible recoil tho
i find it quite managable
how often u get exotics in CD?
depends but decently often
like once per run?
once ever 4 or 5
Ah thz
Well you're guaranteed one every 2/3 runs because of countdown requisitions.
But don't rely on getting them dropped from Countdown. The drop rates of exotics from basic enemies is VERY low.
so do countdown for the currency?
It's not worth it with or without Ortiz
It is for comedy and watching a flame turret spin in circles when overcharged. And cover the whole room. Reminds me of ghost rider having a massive piss when he's in the flame mode
hey naval, how you been
Whats the difference Blue Backup call request and Orange Backup call request?
one might be from your clanmate
hey bird, what all incendiary skills are there and which do you suggest
I'm alright
good, i'm not doing so hot today but otherwise its decent
Incendinary skills?
Firestarter Chem Launcher
Burn sticky bomb
Those?
yeah, i know airburst applies burn as well, and theres the fire turret
but am i forgetting anything
The 2 i just named
most common easy to use are sticky and chem launcher
airburst is strong but tricky to use
fire turret works fine if you the set
I usually use chem launcher to proc firestarter. Shoot and double tap to proc
does exuro actually make it werf or no
The turret itself has fundamental issues
Compared to other similar skills it has a really short duration and really long cooldown
it works enough to be fun, dont take it on raid, legendary or countdown due hunters
there are hunters in raids?
Countdown has Hunter.
no, but enemies on raids are just scalled pretty high
think airburst+firestarter with eclipse then?
Firestarter with Sticky 🤌
two projectile armaments sounds like a bad idea though, no?
With eclipse? Not really
Unless they are robotic that is. Othwise no. Enemies simply walking screaming
fair, and the enemies i favor dont use many clankers
mostly Black tusk has heavy Robotic. The rest are just turret or controller
Can be made short work before they deploys it
i mostly fight cleaners and the military faction, not the PMCS
Ah True Sons
Engineer. I always shoot their Bags
Since ts turret are Buffed on steroids
it'd be so cool if sacrum imperium wasnt so ass, cause the concept is super cool
or iron lung if it didnt require dumping half your damned magazine just to get the good stuff
Iron lung is really good
how? you gotta dump half of your entire magazine to start setting fires
the weapon itself is strong. the fire is a bonus
this is a statuses build deck
also, how've ye been dude, been a while
capacitor
and not a weapon that actually applies statuses
iron lung is a dps weapon, its always gonna be trash on a status build
Capacitor with Test Subject
nah
what hte hell is test subject
capacitor and insync shotgun for fire stuff... both have 12%dta , which boosts fire
Perfect In Synch named Gun
Sup ppl inside my compotar
let us out
No....No out only inside compoter
i got strawberry milk and i'm reinstalling div2, so its been worse
Oh yeah I remember why I came here in the 1st place now 💀 Thanks
I haven't played the game for a while now anything new worth checking out?
this morning sucked pretty bad but i'm getting over it
oh damn what happend this morning?
girlfriend left me for a guy she's been seeing behind my back for three months
but i had fries for lunch
Offfff...fries for lunch will fix that....jokes aside I hope you are doing well my guy
always gets better but could certainly be worse, didnt get stabbed this time
so is fire stickies and fire gas with something like capacitor really rhe best setup for a fire kit?
Maybe next time.
Don't worry.....there is still good girls here and there I'm sure you will find her one day.
due time and all but there are more pressing matters
like why does sacrum just SUCK
True true
yes. the fire can use status effects and skill damage to scale up its strength. you rock all status on your eclipse protocol* for example, then cap lets you stack 60% skill damage on top, plus the 12% dta, and you are burning entire areas
man that just feels really lame, a fire based weapon should be available that isnt ass on a status build
i think i'm just gonna spam bullet king cause at least then i get to lay down constant fire, is strikers still the best LMG set or do we have a new option
its the difference off a 400k burn sticky or a 750k burn sticky... feel free to stay weak tho if cap doesnt appeal 
Pretty much any weapon that applies a status effect by itself is gonna get exponentially worse on a status focussed build
Cuz the main strength of such a weapon is you don't need a whole build around it so when you do it's kind of redundant
laaame
hey deck is strikers still the go to for an LMG setup or is there something better out there now
In any case capacitor is completely busted so for anything skill based you're basically nerfing yourself if you're not using it
Not necessarily better but they put out an LMG focussed set called tipping scales
there isnt a gun that applies a heavy damaing stauts effect
oh? what's the deal with that
at most you can get tricky with scorpio and hope to apply a bunch of stats to spread on death
tipping scales gives you a lot of crit damage and mag size
crit damage is kinda sweet but mag cap is a bit redundant on The Bullet King
and hte bonus stacks on firing the weapon not on hitting things, so it's about sustained fire
you can get around the issue of stacks and not wasting amo by using pistols or cooler water gun
cooler water gun?
bird are you losin your marbles what the hell is a cooler water gun
Named M1A dressed up as the OG doctor home
does it literally just have a bottle of water duct taped to it
Does no damage has infinite ammo shoots water
It gives hazpro to teammates you shoot it with
wait does hte pakhan have open mod slots? if it does its the only exotic i know of that does
And for this specific use case like bird said you can use it to keep up TS stacks without wasting ammo
All exotics have fixed mods
the div2 wiki for Pakhan says "the wooden plated magazine can be replaced with the standard black extended mag if you fit the appropriate mod"
maybe copy pasted from div1
oh wait yeah thats div1 not div2
In any case I wouldn't use the wiki for info
You can check the spreadsheet pinned in build advice for this sort of thing
if i want to do a heavy fire support style build with an LMG should i use BK or Pakhan
pakhan can work in a few funky builds like TS or OD
if i want just raw, unending damage
consider bluescreen.
the one that blinds enemies?
itll disrupt, disorient, pulse... trust. its solid and really stable
does it have decent damage on it?
yes, i rip stuff apart with it.. i dont suggest anything i dont generally use myself
ill give it a shot, and it's decent even on a full red tipping scale build, right?
yeah. i use it on nego because its marking and nego marking make it a natural fit.
i think on ts its like a 230 mag
very stable shooting too
230 shots isnt bad since it only takes 50 to cause a blinding nuke
you can actually proc bluescreen any time by using a skill, not just proc on death
oh
and if you use something like an emp sticky, you can technically proc it every 3 seconds by firing sticky into the air or a teamate 😎
im about half tempted to use marksman spec just for the marking drone
you can also do something like a hive or turret and just pickup/place to proc
dont bother with the drone, use a better skill like gunner pulse/decoy
you see: i'm horribly colorblind
you do you boo 
what does gunner's pulse even do?
disorient and pulse within the area you affect. its a cone that gets longer but more focused as you hold
you ned to get in there and try some stuff
then come back for followup info
that sounds kinda ass, does it at least pierce walls?
also i'm currently in the process of reinstalling i'm just getting ideas for when its done
yes, it ignores obstructions
ok sweet
It says for first objective I have to go to Ring safe house (For the manhunt)
Do I just keep following the white question marks?
my friend try go recue operation and go toward it disappeared? what that means?
Anyone available please
pretty sure if you look for Week 1 scout you'd find your objectives you need to do
It just says True Sons are taking over the Ring Safe House
Not sure if the white question marks have anything to do with it
Have you tried visiting the safehouse in question
Dang I couldn’t find it but there it is. I am an idiot. I just have scrolled past it. Thanks for helping man
I thought maybe I didn’t find it yet because this is a new character and yeah, my bad. Thanks for the help. I am an idiot
they despawn like that if you don't get to them in time
Hope you guys have a great weekend and thanks for the help
What time limited from your vibes.
5 minute despawn?
I have no idea
Does it also despawn from teleporting to near instance? Like control point
If that happen... it would call as bad from my friend
I don't think so
Since when did rifles go full auto???
think when Battle for Brooklyn released?
About a year ago
how do we enable directives in summit?
Elevator options menu
Interact with the elevator in the lobby (or any elevator later on)
10th floor elevators after boss and lobby iirc
3/6/9 elevators i dont remember there being an option
Yeah every three floors there's an elevator
yeah, i just dont remember options being available on those
Hm, nope. Can't change settings on those apparently
So just the ones in the safe areas then I guess
Like you said, every 10th floor (and lobby ofc)
hey deck i got a question about Battle for Brooklyn
Any people on that know a good speedrunning method for SHD watch lvls? So far Im just on Heroic with pretty much all the directives clearing activities as fast as possible. Trying to find a way to cut down the amount of time running to the place and reliablilty of resets having an activity in that spot more often than not
go ahead and ask, i may not have an answer but i know someone in chat most likely will.
run control points that are close to a safe house. when you reset, youll be close to the cp and can run. ~~sink hole and ~~ sleeping giant are both good for this
wait, did you just... 
deck 100 precent agree with u and they are easy to do
definitely didnt 
there's a method pinned in #ask-td2-community under the name of Control Point XP Farming which goes in-depth on xp farming in the game
Everything ive heard about battle for Brooklyn paints it as a really small dlc that hardly adds anything, is it really worth buying or no
From what ive heard it adds like two exotics, a single skill with two versions, a couple missions, and some new hunters
content wise yeah, though i dont even think it's 2 exotics it im pretty sure it's just the Catalyst mask. I had a decently good time with it since the missions are fairly unique and Brooklyn is smaller so there's actually more of just shooting and less running around like new york.
catalyst mask and the huntsman assault rifle
that is a named high end only from the hunters, not an exo no
pakhan comes from the season
so its even worse than i thought
it's a fun DLC if you just want more content, i wouldn't tell you to buy it full price but i bought it on release and i still go to Brooklyn pretty often
It's very much worth it if you enjoy the game
i'm just getting back into the game for some silly stuff, like bullet king enjoyment, it simply doesnt sound worth it, its 15 bucks for a handful of missions and one (1) exotic
The main missions are actually quite good and pretty to look at
Refinery, the black tusk base, rat queen are all fantastic strongholds (even if the game doesn't paint them as such)
Purely gear wise you get a skill, an exotic, and a named AR
does it even add any new weapon types or shopkeeps like wony did
Even with allat the hunter masks were the best part they're drippy as hell
but yeah if you dont think that's worth it wait for a sale or sum.
wony added the most fun LMG in the game i'm half certain, t he IWI negev
yeah but by the look of things it has maybe a quarter of the content
Obviously WONY has way more content but that had a year or two of development
i mean, a single skill, no new weapon types, a single named weapon, a single mask exotic, a couple cosmetics, and thats sorta it
i mean for context Wony has a bigger map and "more" skills. But BfB has more content mission wise (funny enough) WONY added more "natural content" but the maps arent particularly dense with much
BFB is more of a standalone experience rather than an all access endgame pass
BFB also has the added bonus of you bought it as a bundle you can also skip the mandatory WONY story mode baby mode experience 
Ok I read the XP farming thing and as I understand it Im doing everything I should be like running Hotshot and all that but I just need to farm CPs instead to minimize resets for random activites. At least I wasnt far off.
and yeah like Naval said BFB is half the price of Wony. so if you bought WONY on sale then BFB is probably just gonna be an on-sale type deal for you. If you don't replay missions ever then BFB wont be worth it
yeah i'm gonna wait on bfb cause it just doesnt seem werf
It's on a decent sale on Xbox rn not sure about PC
Is there a cap on Hotshot damage at any point?
BFB $25 on PC
Actually thats the deluxe one. $15 for the base
If you dont have either $40
Obligatory: it will go on sale again fairly soon, especially with a certain anniversary upcoming.
"soon" is a bit much, granted. but hey, what's 2 months more wait.
evening riv, how you been
1 billion damage
Oh ya know, this and that.
Like actually? Just wondering if it is still viable for legendary
It's annoying that the broken shield directive is bugged. Hate that I have to sacrifice 25% xp over a bug
everything is viable but not everything is good.
When matchmake what difficult most ppl playing?
Heroic & legendary for missions, challenging & heroic for countdown
Why is it that perfect determined is just flat out worse than the normal one? The only thing different is that it says it cant chain.
Shenanigans from when it was released
is the battle for newyork dlc worth it? havent played the game since warlords released first day back
Battle for Brooklyn? It's alright
Battle for Brooklyn? It's good if you get it on sale.
the skill with it is neat, and it's a pretty solid campaign.
The area you get is pretty too, and fun for playing quick retaliations
are there any good exotics from it?
Is Realism mode worth reinstalling this game, I wonder
Its gonna come in march so wonder 2 months later
huntsman and the burn out named assault rifles have basically the same stats
the latter is the lesser than version tho
😳🚮
oof
And being killed ALOT
I think health gate is still there to save from dying and one shot on headshot makes it easy
Playtest isnt the finished article though
And any headshot is an insta kill. Snipers ALWAYS aim at the head
Julian Gerighty left Massive, joined Battlefield Studio. A week ago he said: "Division 3 is going to be a Monster".well I wish him good luck in his future endeavors.
Division 1 was the best I hope 3 succeeds hes a genius
A monster halt in production 
Trust me, I know what it's like when the road ahead of you gets rough
Can I get the whole avatar thingies in one sitting now?
Tomorrow
New devision 2 player here, should i open the exotics container i got at the beginning right away?
Yes, think they are giving you a level one exotic, it will be outclassed soon. It wont scale with you
Ok, Even if i wait till level 30?
It will be a level one forever. Dont sell i thoug, you csn denconstruct it for exotic material if i remember correctly
Dont get attached to anything until you are level 40
It opens at the level it was obtained
Ah damn, thanks for the information 
guys can someone tell me how do i make an area friendly
Take over the control points
do i need to do the contaminated area in that area
No
hi hi
@proven river You're looking for #td2-clan-recruitment, GL Agent 
I think I got my lvl 30 st elmos from a cache at like lvl 6 or 8 (i played the trail version, then bought ultimate for dirt cheap lol)
But yeah, dont open the cache till like, lvl 30 or 40, if its at 30 you can just recalibrate it at the bench
That item is level one
Mine one was level one at least
I also got a stack brocker which was level 40
Guys, a build for shroud sniper without overdogs?
sure, and IIRC you can convert your LVL 30 exotics to lvl 40 once you get your watch and your blueprints
can't fast travel to the safe house anymore in retals?
Even with shroud, oversogs still best in slot afaik
Its counterintuitive , but you can hit higher topend damage with rather than without
hey deck the game wont close on ubisoft game launcher's end, you got any advice for that
verdammt
and i didnt tab out while it was loading, i closed it to apply a setting and it just wouldnt close for ubisoft launcher
Yeah there are a few ways it gets a little screwed. Just restart if it happens and all will be normal
for an LMG build, what exotic armor do you think would work well?
Dps = overdogs
overdogs?
Exo gloves
what do they do and are they a countdown exotic
👆
you just pointed at yourself
I made a LMG build yesterday. I went with Tinkerer Mask which activates both weapon skills. Styill work in progress, but was quite fun.
Im Gonna teach you you consult the pinned sheet in #td2-build-advice ...
I was pointing at my exo glove statement.
Exo glove 
Hopefully we play as wave 1 division agents in the division 3
ah sorry dude, i just got up and im still sorta groggy
i just bought the bp for ruthless...but it doesnt appear on crafter... any1 know why?
ok yeah overdogs seem pretty sick
All good but we have all this info available in a self serve package that can answer most of the basic questions you have. Youll thank me later
Yeah they definitely are. And they dont block bag or chest talents
Never have been able to
pretty sure you could when they released it
i caved and bought bfb anyway
Man just waiting for an actual JTF uniform instead of the one that looks like a "JTF operative"
Nope
Specifically zero fast travelling is or has ever been allowed in Retaliations
No fast travel, unfortunately
I need help with r6 I'm new
hey i thought aaron keener and theo parnell were evil, why is he ||suddenly back and helping us in brooklyn||
Some of the story js behind manhunt (legacy manhunt) missions
ok but when did keener stop being evil, isnt he a bioterrorist?
i'm colorblind and my vision is more grey than this, he unleashed the green death on dc and brooklyn and all that
Wonder where kelco is
like Martinlongbow says, a lot of things about keener is behind a few of the legacy manhunts. if you don't want to play them, you can look for NGN in youtube to get probably more insight of the lore behind what's going on in division
what i want to know is how he wasnt immediately imprisoned or shot, he killed like 90% of america
did you play Warlord of New York at all?
yes, i did, and he was STILL EVIL
keener wasnt behind the original virus
Hence the reason i said. Look up NGN on youtube and watch some of his videos. he's the lore master for anything Division
he was still the head of a large group of rogue agents, and orchestrating the rikers and cleaners to do stuff in new york
#division-universe has more details, but tl;dr some high ranking people might have let the situation happen to use the diviison ot clean up a mess and get rid of other people in the process
Well, the loretuber anyway.
keener was more throwing a monkey wrench on any plan by just forcing full reset of the situation with the new virus
did they really go the "ope virus is a government conspiracy" route
also afternoon riv, how ye been
Still the same.
he had a bunch of turrets and a whole boss fight where he tried to kill us
tl;dr for Keener:
The division version of the illuminati showed up, so trying to murder a city with chemical weapons is relatively less uncool.
i havent done wony final mission in quite some time but i'm like 90% certain he got dragged to dc in chains
not that mession. think meru meant after wony we did a bunch of missions then he came to "help us"
Who is rodrigo?
you said you did play WONY, if you did the last mission you'd know how that ended, but what Theo told us in his mission kind of makes a point of what we did in the end of WONY
i havent played through wony in like two years dude, i dont remember theos dialogue
idek how theo is alive, i shot him personally
It doesn't matter, the dialogue has effectively been ret-conned anyway.
Just go with what's in the story now.
thats an annoying solution to the problem
tl;dr we kiled him, he didn't die, somehow. Just gotta go with it.
whats next, james dragov survived too?
for theo we were directed to a dead body that was identified as Theo Parnell. Theo "isac isn't hard to trick"
Hornet looking over the fence with a very guilty expression on his face.
hornets the guy with half his face burned off isnt it?
@jagged prism The entire plot of that mission was Rhodes learning how to bypass that.
Look, the story turn of both them being good guys now is not a popular one, but nothing any of us say here will change it.
to me, the point was "we shot a body that was identified as Keener" but now we have him or someone else that's identified as Keener in a cell
Keener I can see, since Kelso checked his pulse, and we didn't pump him so full of lead he danced.
what doesnt make sense to me is why he's even allowed back in after acts of treason and bioterrorism
So what's the catch to be able to find someone in matchmaking?
They saw him as a way to spice things up
nothing in story to challenging for missions. challenging/heroic for countdown
@silent rover "call for backup" will almost always be faster, and you can recall until your team is full.
I'm more so looking to join somebody else. I'm just getting back into it and really have no idea what I'm doing. Lol
welcome back, but like i said story to challenging will find noone. you might get luck at heroic, higher chances if it's an invaded mission or the daily or weekly mission objective
heard XBOX has a seperate thing where you can find people to join your or you possibly join. not sure what it's called though
Probably the built in LFG I'll take a look but it's usually a failed system plagued with recruitment and adds seemingly from accounts that are run by bots.
or you can try queuing for random matchmaking i think it's called? will put you in with someone who's matchmaking for various activities within the game, be it a mission or bounty kind of deal
<= solos mostly as i never know if i'm in the mood to play Division or any game really lately 😹 but division is slowly killing my motivation 🤔
that sucks. considering PC and PS don't have anything like that, best we both got i think is Discord and those brave enough to look at social media platforms 🫢
Been feeling like I have been wandering DC with a brown thumb trying to figure out what's next. I thought bounties were progressible but they're just a loop
Project seem to be where you donate all your stuff for the settlements
A helicopter isn't seeming to offer me any next steps after Coney Island and the White House missions which were done fairly quick
waht level are you..?
34
so no watch yet..?
I did just find three missions for level 34 so I'll see if more pop up after I get them done
To my knowledge I am done the campaign pre DLC
So you dont have the DLC yet..?
I do. And the chopper tooke me to 4 missions already
The mission I am currently doing says to investigate black tusk activity
ok you gotta gget to lvl 40 so IDK if any mission are left but once you get your watch the grind starts
After all the missions are done, if I'm not yet at 40 what can I do to bridge the gap
as of now your jsut farting around lvling learing the game learing the story or lore and yeah
Is there any activities I could do to increase my XP? I remember back in the day there was tunnel runs
ummm I would just hit Lincoln memorial will i would be 40 go get my watch and hit countdown for a striker Unit ally named chest and holster
hit LM over and over till you are 40*
Dose anyone have a spare quickstep I could have or any leftover bounty’s? Would really appreciate it
#lfg-playstation try there
Hey so I’m a returning player after not playing this game for a looooooong time, is the way to access full end game still beating keener mission?
nah
No, end game is no longer gatekept behind the DLC
How do you access end game content now then like for gear score n stuff
just level up like you'd do normally
Gear Score and World Tiers are far gone btw
I wanna see a new brand set called Absolute Power so I can make a hybrid build with Unit Alloys and call it the Absolute Unit build 🤪
I wanna see a new brand set called Absolute cinema so I can make a build and call it the Absolute cinema build
Wow I have some catching up to do lol
Having issue here , do you know how to get supply drop? Ex: I'm in downtown eaast, I cleared all red activity and even main mission it says COMPLETED. How can I expect there will be supply drop happening in that district?
If you own all the control points in one area, and there are no invaded missions in that area, supply drops will spawn randomly.
It can take a while, so do other things and keep checking.
You can also fast travel to NY and back to force the map to spawn a new instance which can help spawn them
havent been on in a couple years. hows everything going in game?
Yooo
returning after a similar timeframe lol, plenty of content to go at tbf
The game is strong, you have a lot of catching up to do so take your time lol
Besides capturing all CPs to make the area green, if there are no supply drops but there are other green activities (IE target practice or hostage) then you can do one of those so that the supply drop can potentially spawn afterwards. Seems to be a limit to how many activities are in the area at any one time. I saw someone also suggest fast travel to another safe house on the map to force new activities in the desired area - not sure if that works.
So I’m seeing people rejoicing that this Julian guy is leaving the division team.. but why ? Like did he do something to upset the community ?
Truth is: nobody publicly knows. It's all speculations by players. We simply have to see what or if anything is going to change for us
eh... probably just escapegoat to someone's grudge "i bet he was responsable about that thing i dont like since he was making decisions"
Yeah like .. I know the game has its flaws ..every game does … but it’s a great game … I don’t know of any other game like this that’s as fun…
Def. a very unique franchise. Speculations won't change or help anything tho. Just wait and see what comes
call me nuts but i think sharpshooter on a bullet king build is genuinely fun, i get to use spotter drone
i see you have the white jacket uniform on 😹
what? no dude i'm just colorblind
having a bright grey outline around enemies is useful imo
i'm talking about the white jacket that you're forcibly hugging yourself aka crazy 😹
but yeah i enjoy spotter drone
Yall like. spotter Drone?
i do too its so op
but i think for @still juniper try that remote pulse and set your game up for colorblind mode might help a lot I did and it does
its op
you misunderstand, i have achromatopsia
everything is grey, so a bright outline around an enemy is super useful
what that mean bud..? haha liek you really really color blind
so basically the colourblind mode they have doesn't work really well
it does nothing
it does nothing indeed, I never knew it was a thing
probably makes it worse?
its just total color blindness, everything is grey, it doesnt affect anything at all
no i mean it does nothing at all, but i'd appreciate if you guys could not ping me cause bright grey background with white text is difficult
if we don't ping you, someone will come in thinking we're talkign to them, even though you do ping a specific person they still think we're talking to them
Elaborate?
Since i never use it. Usually I go for the Weakenes targetter pulse with sharpshooter and decoy
any build he uses is OP. for me it's more of a Youtuber vocabulary
i can see the opp
so if it changes nothing there's no reasn not to, also you can turn off pings on replies
with red lines
i just had a delta-03 error in the middle of a mission, fml
you even hear the term treat people the way you want to be treated? if you don't want to be pinged, shouldn't you be doing the same for other people?
you've also been pinging me this entire time, and you can see colors
i asked you to stop because it's directly more difficult to read what you're saying
Does anyone on PlayStation have Houndsman bounties still? I just started playing this week and I heard it's the only way to get quickstep.
🤦♂️ last time i pinged you was asking if colourblind made the game worse, the rest of the time i haven't pinged you since, but you pinged me when i mentioned about treating people the way you wanted. if you look at the conversation you pinged me every single time......
currently yes, the only way to obtain it is if someone shares you their houndsman bounty, but we have a lot of this season left so maybe they'll grace us with some kind of event in between to get a chance to get it again
this remote pulse is pretty nice, does take a bit to mark new problems tho
Also what's the best way to get exotics? Ive been trying to do summit but not getting a lot to drop, priority objectives have been giving me a few luckily. My watch level is 98 currently
Priority Ojectives with exotics for the reward, retaliations with all factions drops blueprints for most exotics, and target loot with countdown being the higher priority as every 2 runs you can spend your requisitions on exotic caches
I unlocked countdown but haven't done it yet. Not even sure what it is tbh. They added so much stuff since launch lol
Weekly Shd and Summit gives 2 exotic
Legendary weekly too i think
Eagle Bearer, Ravenoush, Regulus and Ourorboros are Raid and Incursion exclusive
8 Man mission you have like 30ish minutes or something like that to complete 2 objectives with 4ish hunters protecting objectives you want to change to you getting the benefits
You can get Eagle Bearer elsewhere. Not as reliably of course
same as ravenous, but you have to do it safely which i feel is impossible so i don't mention it
Do it safely?
Aint thise 2 can be obtained theough Decontamination Zone?
Dark zone
Oh gotcha I think I did the solo version of that where you save captain Lewis and kil some general
Safely meaning not Dark zone
Must be Manhunt mission
drops in all dark zones regardless of target loot doesn't increase your chances
I've been doing a lot of dark zone and looting dz chests but not seeing a lot of exotics. Do they drop from landmarks or chests or what? Sry for all the questions
hey lost i'm trying that banshii pulse like oyu said, honestly really convenient it's a flashbang and marker all in one
it's like a .00x% drop in dark zones
I imagine you would have to farm the dark zone a lot to get one and even then you would have to extract it
0.024%
Those sound like small odds but I get shit that have those odds at what seems like a better rate
maybe nexus was thinking of getting those through Stretch Goals. that list is getting big as each seasons exotics locked behind climax missions also gets added to that list so stretch goals is getting to be a very slim chance of it
Were you on during Winter Krampus event?
Started playing literally two days after lol
Ohh I see so you werent.
So youre super new to the game
If you started playing that recently your priorities shouldn't be on the EB
It'll come back as drop during the next time gated event and you can always get it from the Dark Hours raid anyway
I played a little bit at launch and I played a lot of division 1 back in the day but yeah, just now figuring out the endgame stuff. SHD level 98
probably caught a youtuber video "become immortal!" had EB for the main weapon
Idek what eagle bearer is, someone else brought it up tbf
Bro I saw a vid on YT, SHD 13xx making a random ass build calling the title "EB IS BACK" or something like that
Definey shoudl focus on a build you go to for now. EB shouldnt be priority for that regard
If you ever want anyone to team with I just got back into that game after several years. Im only SHD 225
it's an exotic AR that when you get a headshot you don't take damage. if you get 2 or 3 kills all that damage you take goes poof
you ever played payday 2 rando?
but you have a very short time to get those kills
I spam Bullet King with striker build and UIC15 rifle for longer range. Trying to make some other builds but this one is pretty cheap and effective so far
it's stoic perk deck from payday 2, you take hits and those hits get banked, if you get 2-3 headshots real quick that damage disappears
Its an exotic AR. Has good perk that work well with some good builds but to be honest you can make those build work with other things. I use St elmos and it works great. I also have a hotshot build Ive been running that one shots everything on challenging so im farming lost giant for SHD lvls. 100 lvls in a dat
there's a spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice Pins upper right hand corner. not sure how this works for phones/tablets
Thank you guys for all the help I appreciate it
all the builds in there are the current builds that's been tried, tested and approved
we usually tell fresh 40's to get a striker build, then check that spreadsheet for other builds they may find fun to play
Sadly you're on PS and im on PC so we cant play together. I wish this game had real crossplay. Not just unified pc servers "crossplay"
hey lost, for a bk/shotgun build do you suggest i stay with strikers or try the new one that buffs rate of fire
The only moment I really started using Striker is with Backfire
Just did my second legendary mission for Roosevelt Island! Outcast hunt completed!
don't think that's what they meant by help. just giving them information that'll they will use 
I was wondering. Do I need to be over SHD 1000 before hotshot would really work on legendary?
LMG and shotgun isn't a great combo
😹 i almost told you i don't think so, but then i read Legendary and was like wait a minute. i'm noob to legendary
I wasnt trying to say that I just hit reply when I shouldve @'d him
Im on that same boat Lost.
I should just load up a legendary mission and see how short the build comes up currently
because i own the white dyes i thought i did all legendary. then i had someone carry me in zoo and i got the thing there and was like wait a sec!
what do you suggest then
Im just assuming I would need everything min maxed
For what? Which type of build
i imagine it helps but i'm guessing it can be done non-maxed. just gotta learn the spawn points and what comes out so you can prepare yourself
you said lmg/shotgun is a bad idea, what do you suggest to replace the shotgun
The main issue with hotshot is you have to get a headshot kill to even start the chain. If you cant do it reliably you will get rushed and die
AR
two automatic weapons is a horrible idea
How so?
Not necessarily
not headshot kills as i know it, isn't it just headshots for the hotshot talent? chainkiller headhunter is the one you need kills for
You try to proc a Determined?
Several perks proc
Ahhhh I see
You get determined, hotshot, and the chest perk
i mentioned in you #td2-build-advice with a picture of hotshot talent. it's only headshots to get the headshot bonuses, determined is the only thing that you do need headshot kills
Oh yeah I have that build. Never tried on Legendary though. Tried once but in Group
😹 think a good 90% has the build of some sort
<=think i went mask, gloves, holster, knees, chainkiller, airialdi backpack with vigilence 🤔
Solo run I usually just Run Hunter or Striker.
You stack the perks to get guaruanteed headshots after the first kill that stack in damage up to 1250%
As of now my damage caps at 24mil
so hotshot works on headshots alone. first 1 increase headshot damage, 2nd probalby gives you bonus armor, 3rd refills your ammo, 4th+ on gives all 3 at once
determined first headshot kill increases headshot damage then each kill beyond gives you a stack which increases your headshot even further
When determinded gives you a 100% headshot no matter where you hit them it still procs hotshot
As long it kills yes
i know
you're under the assumption you only get the hotshot bonuses because of headshot kills, which is wrong
Hotshot only proc as all shot are headshot. Not kill if I remember that correctly
For headhunter and Determined yes. Not Hotshot talents
Never said that
you just said it here
They work together. Each is nothing without the other
I dont see anything about hotshot there
Have to kill to get determined again and keep stacking the headshot damage up to the cap on head hunter
Thats the whole idea of the build
Hotshot is just the best set to use that work with it. Cool hotshot doesnt require kills to work. Thats better
the way you've been explaining it. you need headshot kills to get hotshot to start the chain it gives. which is what we're trying to explain to you but you keep going back that you need headshot kills for hotshot
No. You need to get a headshot kill to get the set of perks for the build to work together
oh i hate the rat queen fight
wish i kept soulless' video of him waering Chainkiller, 5 grey improvised running an 1886 with determined
Yes that of course is.
Even if hotshot procs on first second third headshot you arent going to be doing the 20 mil + damage youre looking for
nods but chainkiller or any headhunter with headshot damage on the build will do things alone with a determined weapon
I bet you could make it work with another set.
hotshot just helps make it even better
this is genuine nonsense, it's scripted you can only deal like a quarter of her shield
@steady mist

They use it because it has MR and headshot damage on it innately as well as the perk just makes sense to use.
this soulless guy made a video of them wearing only the chainkiller (perfect determined talent) with 5 grey improvised gear maining an 1886 rifle with Determined on it on heroic lincoln memorial
If only you didnt lose your perks on weapon swap you could rock a shotgun with determined and chain that as well
so headhunter + determined is purely OP as is, you don't need anything else
Shotgun doesnt have determined?
no
No.
if it did, that'd be the build everyone would run, but it's not on shotguns
Determined are for Rifle Mr And Pistol
OH, maybe the sawed off shotgun from the Pistol can have it. 2 shots basicallyl 😹
Let's give this some thought -
Shotguns have 8 pellets. Determined guarantees a headshot on the next kill after one kill with a headshot.
8 pellets to the head and HHF setups can easily 1 tap named elites...
Idk about determined on shotguns 🤨
Yeah I was wondering how that would work anyways. Does one get it or all 8
May as well make blacklisters 6000 amp damage
Even helmet enemies while at it
of if you got 2 people stacked up and your pellets hits them all you'd be clearing rooms quickly
You'll be doing basically upwards of 20m+ per pellet. Multiply that by 8
The MR clears quick as is. Imagine if you were close and didnt have to aim.
Shotgun determined
@sly tundra you ever aim with determined builds? 😹
MMR top end with expertise can see up to around 40 million. Shotgun determined is easily 160m
I would be Clearing thing so quixk that would be boring
MMRs would be completely dead, securing the meta to only AR/LMG/Shotgun
Clearing CPs with it has been. But im making a lot of progress on SHD and expertise
apparently there's a real faster way of getting shd but it only works during global events. personally i see it as an exploit, but so far haven't heard anyone getting banned for using it yet, but never know
I personally use a high end setup most of the time on my determined/HH setups. I stopped using hotshot because all we ever use is gearsets. IA pistol or Habs + Airaldi ODogs has been my go to when I snipe or pistol wield
They can't afford to ban. It means less $ keeping this title alive
if i didn't like Claws out with my pistol HH build i'd try it with turmoil 💀
They need players to buy kitty backpacks and futuristic one piece bundles
claws out is a cool holster, it's sad that melee is such a crap mechanic
I hate whoeber designed the Melee mechanic.
Take it to pvp and it's the scariest goddamn thing on earth with a coordinated group
You Punching Enemies: They Dont even stagger.
When you get meleed; you stagger like no tomorrow
Bonk build
i dont even think claws out works with shields
100k Regen per second, up to about 60 hazpro and fully foam resistant, and it 1 taps melee... Broken
otherwise elmos+claws+shield would be a silly build
So slapping someone with a shield is not a melee attack?
i dont think it applies the buff no
No but using firewall striker shield boosts the damage applied via a Booster hive too and Lady Death
you dont need to ping me every time
You need the damage boost mods for it to really be viable
i'm right here
then there's the Shocker Puncher Holster + elmo's = shocking punch with a shield
It's a public discord server. Additionally, didnt realize I was committing a crime using a simple feature on discord. If you don't want to be pinged don't be on discord lmfao
i'm colorblind and its hard to read what you're saying
Makes more sense
I remember where I heard about the determind shotgun. If you search for it on google it will go on to explain how you can get shotguns with that perk even though you cant. Damn AI
Thats some next lvl getting trolled I see
Google got me again
Clankers being their usual self
poor bastard got trolled by teh clanker
Takes a rust bucket to know a rust bucket
yeah, i mentioned treat people the way you want to be treated but if we ping them they get pissy about it
onto the ignore list they go 😹
💀
I thought the same lol
i literally cannot read what you say easily if you ping me, it's a bright grey background with white text
sorry for wanting to read your message
Us normie users don't have that issue. It definitely does suck they don't have better colorblind features on place
If determined shotgun was a Thing
I would be running tinkerer mask. Badger tuff Unstoppable force with 4 hunter.
1 with determined the other with pellet amplified dmg or pummel. Thing would get out of hand pretty quick.
If such even existed 😂
Per chance is it something to do with a theme setting you've got enabled ?
Someone here showed an interesting shotgun build with HH and Tinkerer, forgot who that was
You can als pretty much disable ping notif in discord. Which is a thing
Hey there hi that was me
With the Ammo Dump holster?
I ran that before
M870 with Pummel and that amplified pellet dmg talent
But it wasn't HH tho it was just normal crit
Bruh I thought it was someone else, don't f with my mind now lol
I changed my name 🤫
no truck, achromatopsia, everything is complete greyscale but brightness and such stays, its why the pulse mechanic is so helpful for me
the bright background of a ping makes the white text nigh unreadable
Discord definitely needs to find a way to make that experience better
he's the new Car 💀
Brand new sexy, red truck
Yeah man brand new, problem is I'm basically the nemesis to him
some days i do miss my red Ram1500 💀
My shotgun build consist of 4 HH. Tinkerer with Badger Tuff Bag with Unstoppable force since I dont trust myself with Vigilance
