td2-general-chat

[floral ore]

don't think its come back around yet

[thin oasis]

No

[light oxide]

I like Ashley

[fluid meadow]

Understandable, have a great day.

[ivory storm]

with this event, it doesnt say so but I feel like I take way more damage than usual

[rotund quiver]

there is a thig that happened with the turrets, if that's what you are taking more damage from, when they buffed the companion's turret damage, it also multiplied the lethality of the True Sons/Hyena's turrets. They haven't fixed it yet

[dire ravine]

Doubt they'll fix them. They'll return to normal after this season

[acoustic hazel]

why is my div 2 suddenly started haveing these micro stutter all the time

pc spec is Ryzen 7 9800X3D 32bg ddr 5 6000mhz and RX 9070 Xt Oc and sometimes fps is low restarting help but then comes the micro stutter. Sometimes i restarted game like 5 time and then there was no stutter or anything. I feel like this game dose these type of things all the time

[floral ore]

try turbo mode in bios if you have it

brother had a similar problem with a 9950x3d

[mighty girder]

finally, backfire is usuable again

[acoustic hazel]

Okay what dose the turbo mode do i just got this new build and i have not checked all yet and im new on amd sruff xD

[remote pecan]

always has been

[acoustic hazel]

Cos one time i got line 20 fps restarted game and boom fps 300 but micro lags xD

[mighty girder]

im aware, but i don't have the balls to play leggo yet so enemies die too quickly for me to stay at 100 stacks

[remote pecan]

without the companion active you already get like 40% hazpro if you recruited 10 medics total

[mighty girder]

im aware of that too but eh

also the bigger problem is that im not that good at pushing enemies without dying from a shotgun to the face yet

so most of my encounters involve me shooting enemies at range

an environment that SMGs are not known to excel at

[remote pecan]

I'm confused, you could just use another weapon instead 🙂

[floral ore]

if you have it run lexington along with backfire, helps with the long range encounters and stacks aren't hard to obtain if not running striker chest

[dire flower]

Can anyone help me speed run through general anderson mission thats next to countdown?

[sullen dock]

Please can someone help me farm or get the St. Elmo's Egine please

[tiny sentinel]

Hi All, new to Division 2 and trying to get into alot of the end game I just wondered if there is any UK Based Xbox clans around? I looked in the Clan LFG but only see Playstation/PC I was hoping for a XBOX only clan if any exist? Sorry if I should be messaging elsewhere....

[summer flare]

United Chaos is a small UK based XBox clan

[tiny sentinel]

Ok thank you, is it easier just to look that up in game? or do I need to speak with someone to join

[summer flare]

Search in the clan area in game

[tiny sentinel]

Will do, thanks for your help

[summer flare]

If you need anything further add me on Xbox and when I’m next on I’ll send you an invite, or just add me anyway, be happy to help wether in the clan or not.

[lyric egret]

Is anyone else running around ingame with sport mode on holding their main weapon because I am. I wondered if if was something activated by the devs?

[tranquil shard]

Are you tapping to go into your handgun to get to sport mode or is it just happening on your regular weapon

[lyric egret]

Pestileance

*pestilence

That will be it tyvm

[thin oasis]

Its the event currently running

[thin oasis]

Its permanent while the event is on

[unique bramble]

It's crazy to think that the quickstep and the Acosta kneepads have literally no effect while this event is active.

[lyric egret]

I checked the events feed, ty guys. Feels good though, ngl

[queen wyvern]

is there a build or good strategy to do the manhunt proto for tinker?

[unique pollen]

Anyone has The houndsman bounty?

[hollow hill]

Striker

You could do hotshot as well. I've played hotshot/HH builds perfectly fine on proto master

[tiny sentinel]

I will 100% add you! Are you part of the clan then? Sorry I just assumed you were a PC player.

[summer flare]

Yes I am mate, our discord is the same name.
I will be this afternoon around 2pm.

[tiny sentinel]

Awesome I am normally on in the evenings and weekend mornings so will pop you a message/friend request tomorrow thanks again for your help and can't wait to join!

[quick plaza]

randos in heroic countdown are gonna make me have an aneurysm

level 10k dude wearing 6 striker pieces like what 😭

[hollow hill]

Purple name = PC
Green = Xbox
Red = PlayStation for some reason (should be blue imo)

[tropic sentinel]

If you play countdown with randoms, then play challenging. For heroic the only feasible option is to host yourself and filter out players.

[hollow hill]

Even challenging is a clown show. It's people who aren't even wearing any sort of decently put together build. At least that 10k SHD player is wearing striker and can deal damage. Meanwhile 80% of the newbie playerbase is wearing aegis or 5.11 or refactor

Or worse, running that God awful ninjabike striker unit alloys build with 6 blue cores

Do something ❌
Do nothing ✅

Retaliation > CD + Summit

[tropic sentinel]

In challenging you can pretty much solo the stuff, it helps to have 1-2 extra payers who actually do objectives ofc.

[hollow hill]

^ This, a million times, a thousand percent. Just keep watch of your average SHD level and build joining your groups if you're hosting. I'm finding if they have a striker build at a low level, at least a somewhat baked one, keep them around. If you're finding high SHD players running dog water builds, kick. Do the same for lower level players too. It will take longer to start each individual countdown but at least you won't be failing half the time with people who don't know how to play.

Alternatively, retaliation can be done solo 😆 much better experience

[sullen dock]

Please can someone help me farm or get the St. Elmo's Egine please

[hollow hill]

Open map > locate Pentco power plant > hover over the countdown logo > matchmake countdown on challenging > once in a CD game, open map and select targeted loot to Assault Rifles > follow the group > when CD is done, visit CD vendor and buy exo caches if you can. Good luck, agent

[sullen dock]

Been doing this for dayssss not got it yet

[hollow hill]

Keep trying. It's RNG. Additionally you can target farm a specific faction in retaliation and just craft Elmo's

which is another reason why Retal > CD

Can't do heroic solo?

[full zinc]

#lfg-pc

[sullen dock]

New to the game. Not got a fully built guy yet

[tropic sentinel]

Best way to farm it is not to farm and eventually you will get it.

[hollow hill]

As long as you have a fairly decent striker build with good CHC and CHD you should easily be able to tackle any content without an exotic gun

Elmo's isn't the end-all-be-all gun

It just makes life easier is all

[sullen dock]

Im doing challenging just fine. Not really trued heroic recently

Can we hop on a call?

[solid carbon]

Do I need to turn off companion to use event bonuses?

[tender wave]

No, that's only for global events like Hollywood, golden bullet etc

[fervent cipher]

Screw doing task 2 of week 8, legit everyone hates it

-# I think

[spare cove]

Once I reset the control points, it was easy as pie.

Also, I don't know if anyone noticed it yet, but the Sheriff exotic shotgun had its model updated.

[sterile ferry]

Oh? Nice, where can it be viewed?

[tiny sentinel]

As a new player doing Countdown I can not beleive how many 3k+ players don't have a clue what to do...! Aimlessly walking around and then leaving because they died for not staying with the other 7 players....

[spare cove]

Expertise screeen

[tropic sentinel]

Kenly graduates perchance.

[tiny sentinel]

Sorry not sure what you mean... 🙁

[lunar hare]

High SHD players are mostly just Kenly exploited XP farmed, that's why SHD means nothing and knowledge is everything

[tiny sentinel]

oh i see.... that explains it... I thought maybe I am doing somthing wrong when I see so many high levels not interacting with the 3 boons at the beginning etc.

[hybrid ore]

I mean, it's all relative. There are plenty of people with a few k in SHD who have never used an exploit.

If someone has like 100k: yeah that's an exploit.

SHD Levels have existed in div2 since 2019.

[tiny sentinel]

Oh I see so the mega high SHD levels are exploits... mostly...

[hybrid ore]

Every time there's a x5 SHD XP Event on, you can get that boost for 1000 levels, and we've had more than a few of those by this point.

[tiny sentinel]

I am struggling to understand what to do as a new player not sure if Countdown 24/7 is hampering my progression?

I am SHD 30, haha

[hybrid ore]

Just focus on making your build for now, and learning how the endgame works.
The true difference between a player who's at the endgame and someone who actually knows what they're doing: is practice.

[tiny sentinel]

yep I am currently grinding Striker gear set for better stats... managed to get Elmo and Coyotes Mask...

[lunar hare]

There's a buddy in a clan I used to be in on xbox that, before I left, was 120k and increasing
He has never gone offline a single minute, his console is probably fried from him exploiting levels

[tiny sentinel]

Damn that is dedication.... haha

[lunar hare]

He probably has a macro or something, I can't get into details 😆

[thin oasis]

Commendation score is a better tell of player ability

[tiny sentinel]

What is Commondation score? Did not know that was even a thing!

[thin oasis]

Commendations are sort of an in game achievement system.

Completing activities under certain restrictions or conditions etc.

[hybrid ore]

It should be noted: better, but not 100%.

since most of them are things like "do a mission 10 times".

[thin oasis]

Yeah it's not 100% but a really high commendation score isn't happening by accident. Some are quite difficult

[hybrid ore]

That is true.
There's even some rather annoying ones I'm still missing, and I've been here since before day 1, technically.

(literally it was on day 1, but I had access, it's a whole thing)

[tiny sentinel]

Oh I see! I was thinking it was more a rating that others can do on you...

So it essentially a way of seeing what others have achieved in the game...

[thin oasis]

Pretty much.

You can get a mid score by simply playing the game for a while, as rivens said.

But at the top end those commendations get difficult and poor players aren't going to do them even accidentally.

[hybrid ore]

The mask reward at the end of the Commendation Score train is pretty neat, if you want an incentive to really go for it.
although you will need to do the Raids+Incursion fully to get up there.

[thin oasis]

And complete alot of really annoying tedious commendations along the way.

Battlefield awareness looking at you....

[hybrid ore]

10 Liberty Islands is the cause of many deleted accounts, I'm sure of it.
RIP those Agents

[solid venture]

I just got to New York, what am I supposed to do now?

[thin oasis]

Action: Kill 3 enemies with your primary weapon AND 3 enemies with your secondary weapon.
Conditions: Must be from an elevated position.
Restriction: You cannot miss a shot or take any damage during these kills.

🤢

[thin oasis]

Go shopping is normally most peoples first thing

[hybrid ore]

I recommend booking a flight, and arriving at the airport early.

[solid venture]

I mean dlc..

[hybrid ore]

and leave your kid at home, to fend off the Burglars.

give him some hotwheels and a bb-gun, he'll be okay.

[solid venture]

bruh TH2 server and no one want to help

Weird community they got

[thin oasis]

I mean....you've arrived at New York....the game literally tells you where to go?

[solid venture]

Problem is that i almost get one tapped

[hybrid ore]

a Tony Hawks 2 server might not be the best place to go for help for div2.

[thin oasis]

Then you're either under geared or have the difficulty too high

[thin oasis]

Ma'am this is a Wendy's

[solid venture]

Okay i will try to look for that difficulty. Whats gonna happend when im gonna kill that Armor Keeper?

[thin oasis]

Autocorrect? Lol

[hybrid ore]

All the world's armour will be free!

[solid venture]

Nah i named him like that

[thin oasis]

Thats amusing 😅

You'll have to wait and find out, i'm not into spoilers

[solid venture]

Okay

[thin oasis]

NY and Brooklyn are decent DLCs though.

[hybrid ore]

If nothing else, the 4 skills from WONY and 1 from BfB are fun.

[tiny sentinel]

Does doing the DLC like Brooklyn enhance the end game in anyway? Am I missing anything if I don't do it....?

[hybrid ore]

If you own it, you should absolutely be running it.

[tiny sentinel]

oh really?

[hybrid ore]

You paid for it, why would you not do it?

[tiny sentinel]

I have just been doing Countdown haha

[lavish tulip]

Is there an option to block certain exotics from dropping? Farming for bluescreen, never gotten one, but I have had probably 25 bulletkings for example

[hybrid ore]

@lavish tulip No.

[tiny sentinel]

I game share so a friend bought it... and I just have not had a chance to do it...

[merry sphinx]

Just RNG.

LMG pool is quite... big.

[lavish tulip]

Is there a list or doc somewhere that provides the drop rates for exotics?

Getting to the point where I feel it may not even be in my loot table

[lunar hare]

??? it's in the general loot pool

[thin oasis]

Was Bluescreen changed?

It didn't used to be in the general lootpool until you got the reconfiguration blueprint from the manhunt

[hybrid ore]

Well it wasn't always.

[lavish tulip]

i can confirm i have both the reconfig and regular craft blueprint for bluescreen, so my research tells me it should then be in my personal world loot pool

[thin oasis]

JTC manhunt? Iirc

[thin oasis]

Then why not just craft one? Lol

[lavish tulip]

I would craft it, but dont have the 35 automated defense parts

[thin oasis]

Craft them

[lavish tulip]

and it seems the 35 automated defense parts are nearly impossible to get

[jagged prism]

realy requires you to run retalations more to get them or craft them really

[thin oasis]

They are impossible to get without crafting them since BT retaliations don't exist

[lavish tulip]

but its a black tusk item, and black tusks are not in retaliation

[jagged prism]

oh those are black tusk item?
well, you can still retaliate to use them broken shd watches to turn into those

[thin oasis]

Wjich is why you use broken ShD watches which you get from ALL retaliations to craft them

I already know the answer to this, but I'm going to ask it anyway.

What happened to your original bluescreen?

[lavish tulip]

ive never had one drop

[hybrid ore]

The sheer amount of jokes I want to make right now about Windows updates, I hope you appreciate me holding back.

[lavish tulip]

played on and off since 2019, never had it drop

[jagged prism]

should you hold back though?

[merry sphinx]

Yes.

[thin oasis]

So you must have done the manhunt to get that blueprint

[hybrid ore]

@lavish tulip Try running the Jefferson Trade Centre Manhunt, you may get the drop from there still.
Worth a roll of the dice anyway.

[merry sphinx]

We had this discussion yesterday: #td2-general-chat message

[lavish tulip]

yes i completed the jefferson manhunt to get the reconfig and BP

[lunar hare]

so this is a troll?

[hybrid ore]

@lavish tulip Head to Inaya (the crafting table lady), the crafting table itself is next to her, and post a picture of your Bluescreen listed there over in #ask-td2-community

[merry sphinx]

Who where?

[jagged prism]

NewbieSupremo. considering you said you 2 had this discussion

[lavish tulip]

I never said i had 2 bluescreens?

Ive never gotten 1 at all

[merry sphinx]

I didn't even realize we had a discussion with them, lol.

Sorry, ain't keeping track of the discussion here but Bluescreen and other exotics tied to its BP (or whatever the issue was) have been fixed. It's 10000% guaranteed.

Confirmed by many people.

[hybrid ore]

btw congrats: you just had the quintessential mod experience.
A full conversation with a user, then totally forgetting that person by the time they came around again.

[jagged prism]

just following your discussion here now over the bluescreen

so, when will seee Doughnuts orange name? 🤔

even temporarily

[lavish tulip]

Yes we had the discussion the other day about how bluescreen used to require a bp but no longer

[undone timber]

32nd Jan

[merry sphinx]

Impossible.

[hybrid ore]

That's not really how it works, especially not temporarily.

[lavish tulip]

My question this morning was about drop rate etc

[jagged prism]

RNG is RNG

Countdown/Retaliations/Priority Objectives
are about the only way to obtain exotics. countdown being the better choice as sheer amount of loot then using them currencies to buy an exotic cache reliably
Global Events works too

[lean breach]

like to re-roll it or to get a bluescreen you needed a blue print

[merry sphinx]

That's exactly why I never really chatted here much before, as you probably know. There's just too much going on every single minute... I feel like I'm already too old for that pace, lmao.
It's really hard to keep any meaningful conversation going in big servers like this when everyone jumps in with their own questions nonstop... especially when most people don't bother reading what was already said and just keep asking the same things over and over. I'm pretty sure you know exactly what I mean.

[undone timber]

I mean you tend to get that in sizable public forums

[jagged prism]

my favorite is you answer someone, but someone gets a question in before you finish your answer and they're "i'm not asking about that" like they're the center of our world 😹

[merry sphinx]

lol. Can absolutely relate.

[jagged prism]

and you get the occasional people "don't @ or ping me please" but then @ and pings everyone

[remote pecan]

don't @ me L05T50UL95

[thin oasis]

Exotic drop rate from enemies is bad. Like 0.24% I think.

Just buy exo caches and you'll get one eventually

[jagged prism]

i think even then the very same people will talk to you about their question, when they're not even part of the conversation 😹
we can't win no matter what we do

[merry sphinx]

Oh, hey there! What's good? Haven't heard from you in ages.

[merry sphinx]

There's a someone's old post on Reddit about how Targeted Loot works... But I believe things like these are not allowed to share here.

Also, it's quite old and I'm not sure if stuff hasn't been changed since then.

[thin oasis]

Yeah if it's datamined its a no no

[jagged prism]

depends how long ago that was made. the list keeps getting bigger becuase we get new toys added

[merry sphinx]

Absolutely... Where else would they get the info from.

[undone timber]

TL is just a separate drop pool that gets pulled from

[merry sphinx]

I think it was in general how TL works, how much is the drop chance, how much % directives add and stuff.

[jagged prism]

kind of a higher percentage to obtain it or something?

[undone timber]

Yea

[remote pecan]

It's been a long time, as a matter of fact a couple of thousand ... seconds 🤣

[undone timber]

Cuz it's only pulling from one category instead of the entire loot pool

[merry sphinx]

All those % might be purely statistical of course, but something tells me the source for it is a bit different...

[thorn light]

quickstep talent legit says "doesnt stack with other movement speed buffs"

[merry sphinx]

We have some business to discuss, sir.

[merry sphinx]

This^ + the movement speed is capped at 20%.

[remote pecan]

I think how much the directives increase TL and how TL works in general was explained in a "state of game" a long time ago.

[unique bramble]

That's why I specifically said, as long as the event is active, both items are useless

[jagged prism]

but i think the info someone wants to post wasn't from said state of game

[merry sphinx]

Do you think people even remember things like "state of the game" exists? 90% don't even know the game has in-game tutorials that the devs kindly update regularly each season. 😂

[hybrid ore]

You hit the nail on the head right there.

[jagged prism]

no, 👇 LFG channel best to keep it there. this message will get deleted eventually

[jagged prism]

so long i don't even remember the last one we've had

[merry sphinx]

After Project Resolve maybe?

[hybrid ore]

but ya know, I enjoy helping out folks, which is why I keep trying, even if it won't always work.
Taking breaks is good for sanity though, having a life outside of here helps a lot.

[merry sphinx]

That's basically my issue tbh. Been in most of the servers for years, mostly just lurking. Then at some point I decided I should probably start helping people out, since I also enjoy it... and let's be honest, there are a lot of misconceptions regarding differernt things floating around in the TD2 community. Now I'm kinda in a trap, trying to do that across several different servers, which is hard as hell. If I also started chatting actively here on top of that, I'd definitely lose my sanity, lol. 🤣

[jagged prism]

yes, today until sunday we'll be flooded with "how to get Yaahl piece for Striker Backfire build?!" 😹

[hybrid ore]

Learning how to pick your battles in a big server is important, and learning to let go when someone is immune to wanting help is honestly a pretty hard lesson to learn. It's in my nature to want to help out, but some folks don't want it from you in particular for a variety of reasons, some good, some are downright evil, but your own sanity has to come first.

[merry sphinx]

Please, no... 😭
I've already seen several posts "my game is bugged, I can run fast even without quickstep". 💀

[jagged prism]

nods one particular individual helped me learn. there's no helping some people 😹

[hybrid ore]

At the end of the day, you just do what you can and that's gotta be enough.
I'm a big cheerer for people taking breaks from long-term games, it's a lesson I had to learn for Warframe back in the day, and div has been a great place to practice.
If you try to go all-in, 24/7 for div, you are going to hit that wall, and you will end up being mean to others to compensate.

[still juniper]

What's yaahl?

[hybrid ore]

I'm doing well, how about yaahl?

[merry sphinx]

DZ exclusive brand set.

[still juniper]

Just got up, my friend max asked me for help building a new mod for minecraft

[still juniper]

Oh, and what's it do

[merry sphinx]

That's why I told everyone to touch grass/snow yesterday when Uplay was acting up.

[jagged prism]

1 yaahl gives 10% hazpro. with overdrive watch you're sitting at 60% i believe?

[merry sphinx]

Nothing useful tbh. Unless you're a PVP-head.

[still juniper]

Hazard protection? That's ass

[hybrid ore]

I try to word it more evenly, but the sentiment is definitely there behind the words, sometimes.

[still juniper]

I touch snow every day, I cook outside

[merry sphinx]

Damn, lucky you!

[jagged prism]

so streamers will be posting their 1 yaahl, 4 striker and whatever builds with backfire and noobs falling into their trap will be coming here. where to get yaahl 😹

[still juniper]

Yaahl sounds worthless outside dark zone

[jagged prism]

oh that reminds me. i haven't bought my enhance legacy cache yet 🤔

[remote pecan]

the mask was pretty good at the time with that healthy amount of health damage
but nerfs and gear changes happened and it isn't really of any use in modern div2

[versed viper]

Hey everyone! I started playing a couple weeks ago and would love to get the quickstep sidearm. Does anyone have access to the houndsman bounties and is willing to help me get one from those?

[jagged prism]

houndsman bounites is the only current way. then waiting for events where they add it to the list of dropped items

[versed viper]

Understood! Those houndsman bounties are currently farmable for those items (likely a bug) so I would love to take advantage if anyone here has the bounties available still.

[jagged prism]

about flipping time i find the snitch 😹

[tough grail]

Is the Faye Lau manhunt bugged? I beat it 2 times cus its a requirement for an invaded stronghold but it still says its unfinished

[jagged prism]

not sure how i feel about this overdrive event.

[exotic sluice]

Boosts are boosts so it cant be negative tbh

[undone timber]

You need to play invaded white oak, not manhunt white oak

[undone timber]

Feels exceedingly cheap, would like to be able to turn it off

[jagged prism]

considering i have a habit to equip quickstep to run and i'm like wait a minute i don't need it anymore for this weekend

[undone timber]

All overdrives really

[muted fern]

im lvl 15 how do i lvl up to lvl 16

[tough grail]

Thank you

[craggy carbon]

Hi everyone im a new in the game and I need people for introduce me the game a French pls

[quick wolf]

Uhhh did Devs tweak Quickstep or is it currently bugged?

I'm still getting the movement speed buff while it's holstered.

[edgy fable]

It's the current mini event

[still juniper]

Its the event, overdrive

[quick wolf]

Ah.

[iron trout]

Sup boys new here got invited by someone! Just hit level 40! Just came back to the game couple days ago after having some years off lol! Boy have I missed this game. Not sure what to do now? Started doing control points take backs and strong holds? Any tips?

[merry sphinx]

@jagged prism see? #td2-general-chat message

[jagged prism]

i know, i just forgot that's this weekend so i'm in the habit of running with my quickstep

[mighty girder]

in dz, you get a free pestilence by breathing

[drowsy pewter]

Farm striker gear boy!
Nothing better than a good ol' striker!
optional: get a regulus

[rapid ledge]

does anybody do raids anymore

[tender wave]

yup, see #lfg-raid-pc and also the GCRock discord server to find groups

[grave timber]

Yup

[formal swan]

They should add more perks

[edgy fable]

Perks?

[drowsy pewter]

I think he meant talents, weapon talents and maybe backpack talents

[edgy fable]

If that's the case I'm down for new chest and backpack talents as well

Weapon talents get added sometimes but Idk how long it's been since new backpack and chest talents for HE were added

[hybrid ore]

Basically every Season.

brandset+gearset, exotics, etc.

[south topaz]

this weekend u can run like quickstep even with lmg

[edgy fable]

New HE backpack / chest talents to be specific

[mighty girder]

i love when a backup request turns into watching a level 14 player struggle to start DUA because they haven't unlocked it yet

[edgy fable]

Maybe that's why they called for help 😉

[mighty girder]

i mean it was certainly better than the one time i encountered a group of three with a useless mishmash of purple and blue gear, bad combinations of brand sets, and 1 piece gear sets trying to tackle a mission on heroic with 4 directives

so anyway i just sat behind them with a FI healer build

[jagged prism]

i know, can't break the habit if pulling my quickstep out still

[stable sand]

👀 i am stuck at scout 8 objective 2 i need to do 2 activity in fedral triangle but its all black tusk activity help !!

Need to be hyena’s activity

[steady mist]

Im in the shooting range and it says my dps is 600k/sec even though the damage numbers say im hitting for 850K a hit on an AR

[mortal sparrow]

Just started playing the division 2 again. Pissed I missed out on all the cool Hunter gear

[steady mist]

You would need to clear the invasion or join someone that has

[stable sand]

Okay so i can join someone else thanks 👍

[lunar hare]

that dps meter is wrong, if you want to know your real dps numbers you have to use the DPS Calculator pinned in #td2-build-advice

[tender sonnet]

Hi.

I got a question. I have just recently login from the game I got DC and when I relogin. I rolled back to SHD 31

[limpid narwhal]

Yo guys i need help rq
How do i access the assassins creed pass
Im still seeing the mutiny pass

[edgy fable]

You need to be lvl 40 AFAIK

[limpid narwhal]

Oh that explains it.....
WELP TIME TO GRIND

Thank you though

[edgy fable]

Np, you have enough time. The event is live for two weeks

[forest geyser]

Anyone else keep getting DELTA-3s rn?

[edgy fable]

Negative

I haven't seen reports today

[tender sonnet]

Was my case a bug or something?

[edgy fable]

Wdym

[forest geyser]

I'm trying to do the legacy manhunt with the True Son guy in the JTC and I keep getting DELTA-3s when I get to fighting the private

[lunar hare]

what lvl were you supposedly be?

[edgy fable]

Try restarting your PC, if that doesn't help restart your modem/router. Could also be a bug, not sure.

[tender sonnet]

A while ago I have just login from the game and checking some of my gears then I got disconnected from the game. When I tried to relogin. most of my achievements has been gone and the same with some of my gears. I rolled back to lvl 31 SHD

[edgy fable]

That sounds odd. I'd suggest creating a support ticket with Ubisoft. Only advice I could give you

[muted fern]

hello how do i lvl from lvl 15 to 16 my next main quest is lvl 16

[tender sonnet]

I got it on the recording.

[lunar hare]

you... level up by playing?

[edgy fable]

Attach it to the support ticket

[forest geyser]

Of course, rule of technology:

if you complain about the problem, the problem no longer problems.

no more DELTA-3s, and I didn't do anything to fix it.

[steady mist]

Thats cause theres been launcher issues theyve been working on

[hearty flume]

Does x5 Season EXP event will affect Assassin's Creed event EXP?

[edgy fable]

It will take place after the AC apparel event

[tender wave]

it looks like it overlaps by a couple of days but we'll see

probably best not to assume

[hearty flume]

By roadmap x5 will start 10 Feb, but assassin's end 12

[sterile cedar]

Yeah 5x xp will be on for a couple days still

Worth to catch up if needed

[edgy fable]

Yeah the changed schedule. You're right. You have enough time to get the event done by then tho

[golden bone]

Hi

[jagged prism]

the real question is. if it'll affect the xp for it 😹

[edgy fable]

Well it's seasonal XP, it should

[jagged prism]

key word "should" 😹

[edgy fable]

I mean why waiting for an event that boosts the season XP overlapping the apparel event for only two days when you have 1w3d to easily get there by doing priority objectives daily?

[jagged prism]

i imagine they're not 40 yet and they're trying to calculate for it?

[edgy fable]

Idk, I try not to assume ^^

[jagged prism]

or they don't have time to play?

[tender wave]

the apparel event doesn't get the bonus 10% xp for having the seasonal modifiers active, so it's possible it also won't get the bonus 5x xp

[hearty flume]

I still haven't completed any scouts objective, always keept it in last seasons for x5 event and leveling battle pass in 1 hour😄

[edgy fable]

I keep them for Stretch Goals usually

[tender wave]

likewise, although I'll probably complete the lieutenant sections during 5x so I can get the master mission before stretch goals

[edgy fable]

Sure, fair point

[limpid narwhal]

Ok how the hell can i give signal
I just clesred washington monument and its telling me to give signal but i see no button
Do i need to be in a specific area or smthn

Anyone care to enlighten me here

[tender wave]

make sure there's nothing above you but sky, then you should see a 'hold to signal allies' prompt

[limpid narwhal]

Yeah its clear
Does it have something to do with the AI buddy of mine?

[hardy prawn]

They took all my houndsman bounties wth

Mine disappeared last week

[limpid narwhal]

I coudlnt even contact the locals with the flare when i started engaging

Cause theres no pop up for it

Its usuallt square for ps4
But its literally just not popping up

[hardy prawn]

@edgy fable At least I'm not the only one then

[edgy fable]

Others still seem to have them, makes no sense 😂

[limpid narwhal]

[edgy fable]

Inventory, the scanner pulse looking icon

Between SHD watch and spec weapon

Oh alr, thank you

[vapid hull]

I'm not sure what to do for the Assassin's Creed event. Do I just need to gain exp or do I need to do something specific?

[sterile cedar]

Season xp specifically

Journey, priority objectives, manhunt, etc.

[vapid hull]

Thanks

[torn mesa]

So I stared the game again like 4 days ago , and I just hit level 25 anyway why do I feel like today my character is running around soooo much faster than normal ?

And no I don’t have that pistol equipped that gives you 20% faster speed

[lunar hare]

overdrive event, check events timeline

[torn mesa]

You can’t access events until your level 40 it says 😭

[lunar hare]

how tf then lol

[torn mesa]

I guess the event still applies to my character lol

[merry sphinx]

Overdrive applies globally to the whole gameplay, regardless of your level and activity you are in.

[torn mesa]

In that case You would think they would show people what event is happening if you’re below level 40 lol

[small spear]

these events are clearly very well-designed, you can't even turn them off because they know you would enjoy them always

[lunar hare]

if only someone was on ps

[lunar hare]

convince me of doing my first solo leg clear with this thing on

[small spear]

i won't

[torn mesa]

Smells like a scam

[modest condor]

I’m not scamming how could I scam

[lunar hare]

nah, just someone asking for help

[modest condor]

Frl I just need help

But I’m not in division 2 I’m on the first one

[merry sphinx]

Clearly, they don't want you to advance from an average player to above average.

[small spear]

nah, i am so below average they felt i needed training wheels

[tropic compass]

Good day to ace through descent

Questions for those who are more up to date:

"The clothes that are dropping, which seem to be from T01, do they have a limit or how can you control what drops?
I opened the game just now and found 1,650 Premium credits.
Did anyone else receive them? If so, what are they for?"

[brave idol]

How do people get houndsman bounty?

[kind veldt]

#ask-td2-community message

[formal swan]

Hello level 30

[formal swan]

Wish this game had better face models

[edgy fable]

Depends on your build

[formal swan]

Ok

[mossy vigil]

And it depends which build works for you since the one I’m using fits me perfectly

And since I play the division 2 the most I know which weapon attachments is great and gear and as of now I’m playing the division since I got the game and I’m looking for the classified striker build

[edgy fable]

If you need help with Div1 hop over to #td1-general I'd suggest

[mossy vigil]

Got it thanks mate

[formal swan]

I mostly use marksman rifles and assault rifles

[white dew]

hey guys the catalyst is a drop from the marauder (5%) can we farm the marauder ? aka killing the marauder then be wipe by adds and redo only the last part of the mission ?

[edgy fable]

MMR - Sharpshooter spec is often used
AR - Gunner is often used

Depends on what gun you use as main and what gives you the most benefits

[formal swan]

[signal fractal]

why am I running fast with my primary like I have the quickstep lol

[fleet wraith]

What's the most efficient way/activity to farm for st elmo engine, and shroud

[signal fractal]

Countdown and then buy exotic cache with money

[fleet wraith]

I've just been unlucky then, that's what I've been doing

I got strega though twice in 1 run

[signal fractal]

Priority objectives can be another quick way if you get the short to medium objectives

[fleet wraith]

Yea been doing thoes too every now and then

Mostly gotten duplicates I already had

[signal fractal]

I’ve been loving the iron lung with striker over the st Elmo

[fleet wraith]

Iron lung is a lmg though no?

[signal fractal]

It is but you proc burn and it hits like a truck. Roll crit chance in third slot.

[fleet wraith]

It is my favorite variant of lmg too, might be something to get

[signal fractal]

Shoot me a dm I’ll show you a build or can run with me on countdown

[hybrid viper]

Vanguard Overdrive event

[formal swan]

I have a lot of armor but I still take a lot of damage. Why?

[edgy fable]

That's how the game is in higher difficulties

[muted tundra]

Bro coming back to div2 after a few years is a sensory overload bro

[formal swan]

Wack

[neon wyvern]

shield helps

[formal swan]

What’s the point of having armor if I take heavy damage anyway?

[neon wyvern]

you take heavy damage at a slower rate

[formal swan]

“Slow” riiiight

[sour void]

Armor is meaningless at higher difficulties since there's a dozen elite (gold bar) enemies ready to shred it into pulp.

Best offense is a good defense. Get them before they get you.

[formal swan]

Good idea

[grave timber]

Yes but it may help

I'm having trouble Ranking my ⁨Bulkwark shield⁩ and also getting ⁨god-rolled⁩ mods (farming) any tips?

[mighty girder]

i joined a backup call with like 3 people who are SHD 1000+ and all of them have some horrendous setups with NBB and blue striker or some other stuff for PVE

I guess SHD level isn't everything

[inner elbow]

up to a point, yes

also nowadays people's brains are getting rotted by NBB, expertise, turmoil, Refactor, Determined, "my fun is more important", or a combination of those things

[south topaz]

I blame youtubers

[mighty girder]

there are a non-zero number of sub-lvl 40 people that call for backup and then have to watch in the corner as three agents spawncamp enemies that the person who called for backup can't fight on their own due to level scaling

[shrewd hazel]

I know what this means and am smart

[hybrid ore]

You were right the first time, SHD Level means nothing.

[halcyon vapor]

Are there here also people from The Netherlands?

[west berry]

Anyone has problems with logging in to the PSN?

[tribal wadi]

where to get the p90 blueprint ?

[velvet zephyr]

Thought i read somewhere that div2 was going to do another splinter cell cross over anyone know anything

[hybrid ore]

There's an Assassin's Creed collab on right now, we don't know about future updates, and don't deal in leaks.

[tribal wadi]

Any idea why i cannot see the collab in game? It has something to do with the fact that i'm just lvl 18 ?

[hybrid ore]

Yep, gotta be Lvl 40 to do any of the "events".
It's free to Reach Lvl 40, you just need to keep playing.

[tribal wadi]

Started HC so i will get the in few days

[hybrid ore]

Note: you need to earn Season Pass XP in order to rank up the Event.
So priority objectives are the way to go. GL Agent

[tender wave]

One of the promo images in the latest stream showed that three green dot nvg thing, so I suspect it's likely. Think they said they were doing a bunch of Ubisoft IP collabs this year.

[velvet zephyr]

Was mainly curious on if it would just be a repeat with the old outfit or if theyd do the fourth echelon one

[merry sphinx]

Yeah, they are planning to do several crossovers with other Tom Clancy's IP in March during Anniversary mini-season (or the whole year?). Gotta be something new rather than just a Third Echelon rerun.

[dim briar]

Hello.

I have a question.
I've been playing the game for a few years now, but I'm stuck at 1.9m armor. I'd like to increase it. Is that possible?

[grave timber]

Some high and level agents have some strong builds and others have weak ones heck even non 1k agents meaning agents below 1000 shd lvl have some of the best builds then the high lvl ones

[grave timber]

Yes depending on your pieces I have a build with 2.1 armor but very unusual

Don't forget the other brand that gives you 5% percent for one piece

And if you really want armor two pieces of the foundry gear set for 10% armor

[hollow hill]

You can easily hit 2m armor but the question is WHY would you want to other than being a tank for iron horse raid

The more armor you have = the less damage you do

Even taking 1 blue core on an all red build is near redundant because you're getting barely any armor and trading up a whopping 15% weapon damage

Delaying your death with armor is pointless. May as well kill everyone before you die

[void parrot]

hi ubisoft ive not got my serium weapon skin for the division 2 after doing 5 exstactions on division 1 survival

[tender wave]

@void parrot you won't find official Ubisoft employees here, your best bet is to open a ticket with Ubisoft support (see link near the top of the #rules channel)

[void parrot]

ok thanks m8

[unreal needle]

anyone know how to get access to the tidal basin stronghold mission?

says i need to discover another mission

[tender wave]

Do all story missions on story difficulty up to Capitol Building, then the three invaded strongholds, then a new side mission that appears south of white house, must be done in your own session

That is, everything from Capitol onwards must be in your session

[unreal needle]

i've done all of that and i don't think i saw any side mission appear

[tender wave]

It's a red circle a short way south of white house

[unreal needle]

yeah no red circle

[tender wave]

Maybe check the progress tile (from the main escape menu) to see what it suggests you do next

Might tell you what you missed

[unreal needle]

all that says is for me to do the main campaign missions after the tidal basin

[tender wave]

You definitely did the three strongholds (District union, Roosevelt, Capitol) a second time, but with the black tusk as enemies?

[unique bramble]

It might be easier if you show the map for us tbh.

[unreal needle]

i completed all three strongholds once i think

can't share images here

[unique bramble]

On #ask-td2-community you can.

[tender wave]

You have to do them twice, once against the faction enemies (hyenas, outcasts, true sons) then a second time against black tusk

[unreal needle]

ah right

[tender wave]

The black tusk versions have a red icon on the map instead of blue

[unreal needle]

they are all greyed out for me

[tender wave]

That's what we mean by 'invaded'

[split jungle]

I have a feeling that I kinda want to restart the story, especially since I got yesterday D1 but idk if it's worth playing D2 even if I'm barely halfway trough it, let alone more content... Thoughts?

Maybe I should look at the cutscenes and hidden content and that's it?

[late finch]

If you have not played D1, it worth it for the storyline

Oh hell yeah. Thank you.

[forest sapphire]

Anyone know how to get the stinger lmg? Apparently the friend refferal is no longer available

[wise crane]

Just go back into the game and misse out on the overdogs gloves in the last season. Can they still be obtained somehow?

[hybrid ore]

@wise crane Yep, just through regular TL: gloves (targeted loot) farming, or you can get the blueprint from the Hyenas Retaliation.

[wise crane]

So countdown with target farmed gloves makes it possible? I saw something that said you need the blueprint first

I'd rather just run countdown over and over personally

[hybrid ore]

You shouldn't need the BP first, but div2's loot obtaining can sometimes be a little "hmm" if it works how it's supposed to.
Regardless: you know both of the main ways to get it, happy farming, Agent

[wise crane]

Thank you

[hybrid ore]

@pastel zephyr You're looking for #lfg-xbox, GL Agent

IIRC the console itself also has a "game finder" of sorts.

[pastel zephyr]

@hybrid ore thank you

[elder whale]

anyone know how to get strega blueprint? i accidently discarded the only one i have

[hybrid ore]

@elder whale You always keep a blueprint if you have it, what you're looking for is another Strega itself.

I can't recall if it's part of the Retaliation pool, but you can always get one from just regular AR: TL (targeted loot).

[elder whale]

it says the strega blueprint has a chance to drop by eliminating heyna kills squad in retaliation

[kind veldt]

there are two blueprints, one lets you reroll the weapon, one lets you craft it, the crafting one is kinda new and as you just said it yourself, doing hyenas retal has a chance to give it to you

you can try to finish the projects from the areas, give a good amount of exp too

[muted fern]

its normal to have to do this just from lvl 15 - 16? im so early game usually you can just follow story and do missions then..

[fiery scaffold]

Sorry, I first leveled up when the game came out, so that's all I can think of

[cerulean tartan]

Im 15 right now with a New Char and have only the Theatre Arena finished, also the first one

when you run to other Mission make All ? or Red points where you can find on the way

[tender finch]

is haz pro build good in pve beside raid?

[kind veldt]

Depending on the flavour of the build can work great with backfire smg

[tender finch]

yea i was optimizing my backfire build and suddenly realized "is this hassle even worth it?" i can just simply put backfire in any typical tank build and perform the same or even better. so i just wanted to ask if you guys feel the need of haz pro (almost to the point of immune) for general pve content

[edgy fable]

You'll lose damage but HazPro in that build variants is a nice qol thing. Depends on your liking but know the effect of losing damage if you pick HazPro as attribute

[grim pumice]

Think so

[lunar hare]

source?

[wise crane]

I’m online

[hollow hill]

Hazpro is nice but it's too niche of a stat to invest in for PvE. There's little hazards in PvE compared to something like pvp

Backfire isn't bad but taking survivability stuff just to counter dying makes you weaker in the end. You can however go full red backfire with all hazpro attributes and still do just fine

[light oxide]

I like Ashley

[pulsar herald]

Hey if I want to level the event pass quickly, what should I do?

[lunar hare]

that's projects btw

[pulsar herald]

Thanks! I’ll tackle that tomorrow

[hybrid viper]

Well i mean I run backfire this season. I cant be burn, pulse, Jammed, bleed 😂

[lunar hare]

there's an overdrive event lol plus hazpro of companions its kinda meh to use hazpro rolls on anything

[hybrid viper]

Mission like Potomac Event center at rhe stage where theg dump the Fire barrel. I can remain up there

[hybrid viper]

Ye I swapped my pieces for more Crit dmg

Still immune to hazard

[hollow hill]

100% I can pulse you in pvp

Hazpro ≠ Pulse Immune

[hybrid viper]

Too bad I dont bother with PVP

[hollow hill]

Good, you wouldn't want to with the state it's in. Ask @sharp reef , they'll tell you

DZ south still going wild with em rn, Pyr?

Love how I had a feeling about that one guy's name and poof he popped up on isac😂

dz south has very easy camp spots so yeah i'm not too surprised

Whats the fastest way to level up when going from 30 to 40?

5 runs into countdown. No overdogs yet 🥱

[kind veldt]

#lfg-playstation

[wise crane]

at what point in countdown can the overdogs drop? can anyone drop them or would it be from the rouge agents ?

[hybrid viper]

Can drop in Retaliation as well

My friend got the glove and the Bp in one same run

[kind veldt]

Any point

[brave idol]

Somehow i have the blueprint and never got the glove

Must be from retaliation

[wise crane]

I jsut did like 7 runs of countdown, killed a rouge agent at the end of the run and dropped an exotic, it was the btu gloves I threw my controller 🙂

[jolly kettle]

Congrats

[stiff egret]

anyone experience crashes last couple of days?

[wise crane]

Thanks

[lapis rock]

Is Hyenas retaliation still how you get Overdogs/is that the only way?

[lunar hare]

that's how you get the Crafting blueprint, but might as well TL gloves to get play with rng and see if they drop in the meantime

[lapis rock]

Yea well Ive been trying for at least a month now and still havent gotten them :/

How do I know if I got the blueprint because I dont see the blueprint but the kill squads dont give rewards anymore

[fiery scaffold]

I had actually managed to snag two Exotic LMGs today during a Countdown Mission+

Pakhan and Bullet King!

Pestilence came two runs later. 🙂

[lapis rock]

Do I need to have the gloves to get access to the blueprint

[lunar hare]

in the final completion screen

[lapis rock]

Yea but now I go to crafting table and I dont see it and Ive gone to Inaya and its not available for purchase

[lunar hare]

you still havent got it then

[lapis rock]

I never noticed that I was ever rewarded the blueprint but I dont get rewards from kill squads anymore

Or is it from completing the retaliation

[lunar hare]

IIRC completion 50% chance

[lapis rock]

aaahhh ok

5% chance for me I guess

Been doing retals over and over again

[hybrid viper]

My friend only got lucky when I did a hyena retali with him. After he spend 4 days doing retal on Heroic 💀

But yeah for mortar you'll get top end damage going high end as opposed to gear set

i feel local and naval don't approve of mine

highend, 2 unicorns

[undone timber]

Get glass cannon on immediately

[still juniper]

hey naval, should i bite the bullet and buy turing complete

or just wait until a holiday or something

[undone timber]

As in the codebreaker Turing or😭

[jagged prism]

for me it's entertaining watching them roll left, roll right, just to roll left again 😹 or vice versa you know

[still juniper]

the game, Turing Complete, a puzzle game about logic gates that teaches you CPU architecture from nothing

[undone timber]

I have absolutely no idea what that is and don't have much interest in puzzle games

[kind veldt]

Void stranger, best puzzle game i ever played, but very off topic

[clear temple]

Is the division 2 game broken? Cause I can’t launch my game, after… adjusting the pagefile.sys

[jagged prism]

been enjoying some of them rogue games lately 🤔

[lunar hare]

that's why you dont touch stuff u dont know

[kind veldt]

Game running fine lately, try to verify files

[still juniper]

what's it all about?

[clear temple]

I’ve been trying to adjust space that’s why 😅

[kind veldt]

Sokoban aka box pushing

[jagged prism]

is that what that does? i was thinking it was to try and trick your computer with more ram than you actually have?

[mortal sparrow]

Will they release the Houndsman cosmetics again? I’m pissed I wasn’t playing at the time

[still juniper]

oh nice, what's its unique twist?
every sokoban game anymore has some shtick that makes it varied

[kind veldt]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[jagged prism]

hopefuly som day if the demand gets high enough

[clear temple]

Was it about the pagefile.sys?

[jagged prism]

yes

[clear temple]

I think it acts like an overflow system to make the applications to run smooth

[jagged prism]

would massive/ubisoft care if someone altered a windows file? i feel they shouldn't so the problem has to lie someplace else

[clear temple]

If you want to use an app to overlook your files use WizTree

[jagged prism]

yeah, i thought it did that exactly
A page file is a Windows system file that provides virtual memory when random-access memory (RAM) is full. Windows 10, Windows 11, and Windows Server use it to store inactive memory pages so the OS stays responsive during heavy workloads. Think of it as an overflow lot for memory: When RAM fills up, Windows parks data in pagefile.sys to keep things running smoothly.

[kind veldt]

anyhow if you think files are not working right, verify them in ubi app or steam

[jagged prism]

you got the space on your windows drive to do so? you're not setting it higher than whatever open space you have are you?

[clear temple]

I just need space for another game, that’s why😅

[jagged prism]

yeah, was just thinking if you say only have 10 gigs of drive space left and you set your pagefile to something like 64 gigs. think your computer would bluescreen until you do something like safemode and readjust it to boot up again

[clear temple]

Ouch, it would blue screen just like that??

I didn’t mean to say ouch, it’s that I’m a clanker

[jagged prism]

i'd imagine so. if you're trying to set your filesystem higher than what you have avaiable space wise on your hard drive right?

[clear temple]

Yeah

But anyways, I think that’s all for now. Thanks Agent.

[jagged prism]

good luck

No, but you don't need gold to play it, just an internet connection

Depending on the mode you can play with no matchmaking if you mean paid online of consoles

Hi guys, Im a fresh agent at 40lvl , yesterday I tried to find a team for the Countdown, it threw me all the time into the group in which the leader was afk. 7 people waiting forever, nothing happened. I was leaving the group and every time I wanted to find another one, it threw me into this guy's group. Is there some way to avoid this situation? Because basically 7 people were blocked. I tried to call for support, someone joined my group, but when I started matchmaking for the Countdown it threw us into his group again. Thanks a lot for any advice

[unique bramble]

Be the boss, create your own company and fire whoever you want.

I mean, create a group, matchmake and you are in control of the group.

[unique bramble]

There are channels dedicated for that

[tough grail]

The operator outfit is white black tusk?

[hybrid ore]

It's the outfit of the Legendary-only enemies, which are sorta Black Tusk.

[tough grail]

I did the hyena stronghold last night and got the hat, its a white btsu hat, is it other strongholds with the rest of the set or are there other legendary missions with the operator pieces?

[undone timber]

Yes, there is an operator outfit set

Not sure if there's any official lore on them but legendary enemies are colloquially referred to as white tusk

[patent mason]

How can I get the quickstep pistol?

[tough grail]

The boss was so tanky, took half an hour to kill him cus it was a Tank class

Or are all legendary white tusk tanks

[undone timber]

No

Same archetypes as black tusk with extra gimmicks

[tough grail]

Oh okay good, dont want to spend 10 minutes magdumping the backpack then 15 minutes magdumping the head

[undone timber]

Assuming you mean DUA boss he's the only enemy like that

Though it really shouldn't take that long regardless

[iron adder]

his mechanics is constant healing until you destroy his backpack. Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes to kill him.

[tough grail]

Team i was in was mostly skills with one tank, our skills dealt minimal damage due to the fact that the backpack needed to be destroyed, one of us had a blinder firefly so atleast we had opportunities to destroy the backpack more consistently

Asides from that it took a while to actually destroy it

[iron adder]

if the team composition is bad, you can fast travel to safe house, swap to full red striker w/ overdog and fast travel back to kill him

[tough grail]

Wasn't so bad, we tore through the mission till we got to the boss

[iron adder]

it's bad for that specific boss

[wise crane]

yay crashing 🙂

[tough grail]

Eh yeah fair enough

Countdown RNG is ass today, 12 runs in no overdogs

[next kiln]

ive yet to obtain a good equalizer specifically with crit damage and crit chance

[hybrid ore]

@wise crane Exotic drop-rates are bad by themselves, that's why you either go for Countdown where you use sheer numbers to get it, or you buff the drop-rate with Directives in other places.

Or: get the blueprint from Retaliation, I suppose.

[wise crane]

I was blessed with an exotic drop in countdown yesterday. Just not what I wanted lol.

[south topaz]

most of the guys getting overdog from retaliation crafting it hardly drops in target loot

[kind veldt]

Well and exotic caches extra chance to do things

[hybrid ore]

It's RNG, the rate is low.
It's not any worse of a drop than any other Exotic Gloves.

[wise crane]

Might try hyena retaliation if I get another 10 runs in and don’t get them.

[hybrid ore]

Make sure you set the TL for the Retal too, hey ya never know.

tidal master boss has bugs?

yes

sometimes after you break the last mortar he doesn't despawn

he has to despawn so that the wave of marauders and him can spawn

[formal swan]

Hmm

[next kiln]

i see people trying to do a bounty on houndsman
but isnt it unavailable now?

[kindred tiger]

Ehh is there a limit to how many priority missions you can decrypt?

[lunar hare]

to how many times you can reroll them

[sterile ferry]

Yeah you gotta select one of the given three

You either complete the one you selected, or abandon it. Then select a new one out of the new three, etc

[midnight breach]

Yea

[grave timber]

Well up to you then if you want to skip to 30 go for it

[dense anchor]

I'd just skip to 30, or skip to 40 if you have the Brooklyn DLC. Not worth playing through the campaign unless you enjoy the lore and/or you don't pick up on in-game mechanics as you go.

[hybrid viper]

3

And 1 hour Cooldown if abandon objective (which I hate that)

[mighty girder]

I always wonder what was up with gear scores anyway other than having existed to extend the endgame progression for a few more hours

It's probably the most useless metric to judge someone's equipment in existence, Div 1 was kinda better in this regard because being at 290+ meant you at least spent a lot of credits and tech to upgrade your equipment, but in Div 2 you were showered with 500 (515) gear score items so what's even the point when 99.9% of players are at the max gear score

[hybrid viper]

Gear score? Thays some pretty old stuff. You guy still have those gears?

[queen wyvern]

how do i join clans that are posted in the clan channel? everytime i search for them it says guild name doesnt exist or something to that degree

[kind veldt]

gear score was a way to give gear strenght without changing the actual level of things

[sullen dock]

Are servers reseting?

[kind veldt]

more likely no

Kinda dumb I’m being asked to go to Brooklyn when I don’t own the DLC.

[mighty girder]

"cleaners in brooklyn, we need reinforcements!!1!!!!11111!!"

[formal swan]

😭😭😭😭

Call some else, bro, I can’t right now.

[mighty girder]

I held off on going to Brooklyn for a while after returning to Div 2 so I enjoyed hearing about cleaners in Brooklyn for several hours

[formal swan]

It should only fire off if the DLC is owned. If not, shut up.

[mighty girder]

I also enjoyed having to check in with the new guy in Div 1

It needs me to do Last Stand, but surprise surprise, the gamemode is dead so I guess I'll have to watch the Last Stand trailer for eternity

[formal swan]

[insert crying chihuahua gif here]

Is Descent fun?

[kind veldt]

it's a different flavour

more roguelike-ish gamemode

i find it a bit too slow and too long

[sonic halo]

my friend told me how am i able enjoying slop like this game (even fallout 76, whatever game has long grind progression and bullet sponges enemies). Only thing my friend brought div2 is realism mode, want to try it out not enjoying in main content; because aspect of bullet sponges.

[mighty girder]

dev's strategy to get you to buy the brooklyn dlc: annoy the shit out of you until you capitulate

[sonic halo]

i brought div2 back 2022 before they went on steam, and i repurchase again gold edition on steam

money grubber ubi

[mighty girder]

div1 and 2 are the only ubi games i play and like, and except for div 3 in the future, i will never play any other ubi title

[sonic halo]

the bullet sponges title

[mighty girder]

personally I am obsessed with the HUD for some reason

[silk kestrel]

hey hey new player was looking for a squad to link with

[sonic halo]

i like the AI watch, the hud is second like

[mighty girder]

even when I quit Div 2 after WONY release, the HUD was still the most significant element that I think about

I especially like how it interacts with the environment, like how the main HUD element aligns/sticks itself to cover

[sonic halo]

me and my friend went down heroic countdown and see people leaving after some death trying subvert countermeasure, calling them tryhard for leaving it. Second run, my god, Tiping scale bullet king didn't do good. Hunter armor is like spartan armor on normal difficulty and we are enemy on legendary difficulty but deal less damage.

[kind veldt]

you can try #lfg-pc

[silk kestrel]

Thx

[sonic halo]

is strange i play solo heroic matchmaking countdown run successful some or most time but when with my friend (who doesn't care build gear just sticking simple brands set and exotic weapon) went worse and lower rate winning

[mighty girder]

i mean it isn't that weird, obviously if your friend brings a cobbled together build to heroic countdown, your win rate will be reduced

[sonic halo]

the people in heroic mostly bad build or ragequit when he is with me

[mighty girder]

unlucky i guess

[sonic halo]

him bad build doesn't tumble whole matches

but we sometime got some 2-3 tryhard player manage melt enemies easily

a successful run 6/6 extract, just one time

[kind veldt]

well if he's not try hardinbg just go to challening for casual time

[sonic halo]

i told him if heroic got more ragequitter and winning down bad, just go down from heroic, he only call those quitter are tryhard after i explain why these people leaving while doing subvert countermeasure

[formal swan]

I don’t like Descent.

[hollow hill]

Who does lmao

[sonic halo]

this kinda like some community answering my friend issue build he refuse listen green gears for not interest doing better build, only sticking exotic weapon and yellow brand gear they goes "well then this game isn't for him". The only thing he brought div2 first place is hearing realism mode, then Avatar/AC free cosmetic get him play just free cosmetic.

he can't wait for next month play realism get over div2 bs he said

[hollow hill]

Sounds like they'd thrive on ghost recon. Div isn't meant for ultra realism

[sonic halo]

BRO THAT'S WHAT HE INTO

LITERALLY GHOSTY RECON WILDLAND, he told me future soldier does best weapon smithing

[formal swan]

What reward should I get in the watch scavenging section?

[sonic halo]

oh bro when he play breakpoint with me after friendpass (he didin't like the pass thing first place) he said "This game the breakpoint should be the division 2 not the actual div2 (bullet sponges, exotic)

when he learn 1 weapon exotic and 1 armor exotic restriction, it remind him like destiny 2 bs. Never liked d2

[formal swan]

Think I’ll just get the 34,500 e-credits

[sonic halo]

just get mats

[formal swan]

mats?

[sonic halo]

materials* is better for crafting, like field recon data

[formal swan]

👍

[sonic halo]

e-credits get from junking the loots

not dismantle, sell to vendor.

[small spear]

i think he should be more okay with the fact that this game isn't for him

[sonic halo]

this kinda like some community answering my friend issue build he refuse listen green gears for not interest doing better build, only sticking exotic weapon and yellow brand gear they goes "well then this game isn't for him".

[mighty girder]

i feel like he seems to be overhyped about div 2's realism mode

[sonic halo]

this is what it is, not overhype, just wanna try out

[formal swan]

I maxed out sharpshooter 😄 huzzah

[mighty girder]

yeah but i doubt that it's going to magically fix the game for him

[sonic halo]

he played div2 free weekend before but hated the arcade type bullet sponge can't one headshot from sniper

saying to me why I able enjoy slop like this (even from fallout 76)

[small spear]

i hope he finds more peace in other parts of life xD

[sonic halo]

he did send me article about div2 realism mode i went research little bit, until he decide to buy ultimate edition on steam, i ask him why.. i thought you hate the game, he only after realism mode

[small spear]

the realism mode thing i doubt is gonna be a long term thing. it's probably just an experiment for div3

[sonic halo]

he just guy doesn't like grind shit, beefy enemies, since ghost recon wildland is his favorite game

[mighty girder]

because they're right, the game isn't for him honestly, it's like if I decided to complain about locational limb damage in EFT or something

if I don't like playing a tactical shooter as a tactical shooter, that means the game isn't for me, likewise, if your friend doesn't like playing a looter shooter as a looter shooter, the game isn't for him

[undone timber]

It's okay for a game not to appeal to everyone

[sonic halo]

his eyeing on AC collab atm, why? free cosmetic why not. just after Avatar

[sonic halo]

yeah he hated fallout 76 after he try open first time. UI is wacky got him not liking. Because me mentioning too much fallout 76 comparing the div2

[undone timber]

All that about realism to want 16th century robes in his alleged tactical shooter 😭

[sonic halo]

he do enjoy arcade that isn't mag dumping

[mighty girder]

"wealism"

[sonic halo]

is fine to 2-3/4-5 shot kill enemies but not entire magazine

i met him first time from remnant games

which is long time ago, game is soul-like with guns.

he's into simple stuff, but rpg stuff overwhelm him.

and im super nerdy to explaining to him would tell me to shut up.

[kind veldt]

remnant is comfy, cant deny

[sonic halo]

oh he wrote bad review about remnant 2, Ne'rud problem

[hybrid viper]

Anyone knows if there is another district that is rich in Crafting Materials caches like East Mall district?

[kind veldt]

you can just break apart a lot of things you find and depending on how badly you need something ,use the watch points

i mean the only problem with remnant 2 is how annoying some quests are

if he got filtered by ne'rud he's just bad

[sonic halo]

primary just map layout, is like maze

[still juniper]

The biggest problem with rem2 is nerud in my opinion

A featureless grey wasteland with a constant sandstorm you can't navigate in

[sonic halo]

that's what he say

is hard to find way out otherwise you don't walk to close vomiting status build up

[kind veldt]

more interesting than the forest

[still juniper]

It can't decide if its a zombie apocalypse, a lost ancient civilization, or a robot uprising, so it has all three and everything suffers for it

[sonic halo]

their weapon upgrading is pointless btw, you take more damage chances get one shot from enemy

[still juniper]

Worst thing in the forest is those godforsaken dart traps
Instakill mechanics are already lame as hell, dont make it an instakill mechanic you can't see coming without actively keeping rhythm of it

[kind veldt]

nope, i just never liked the forest in the first game, rethread the worst area for me is not interesting

anyhow we are getting sidetracked from division

[still juniper]

Im the first game it was sorta lame, I liked how rem2 did it and the pan a bit more

[sonic halo]

i got pass that dart trap instakill having high armor and challenger archetype

[still juniper]

High armor does nothing, chall is smart tho

[sonic halo]

thanks

ill wait when they drop realism mode and he will quit div2 after limited time anniversary.

[chrome minnow]

is the only way to get system corruption rn from dz?

[sonic halo]

you can get from countdown

(i think)

[mighty girder]

no you can't

[kind veldt]

DZ or legacy caches if you are very lucky

[unique bramble]

As a System corruption user, I must ask, why do you want to get it?

[undone timber]

It looks a lot cooler on paper than it is in practice

[chrome minnow]

i just wanna try it out to see if i like it tbh, it seems like a cool play style and also i just wanna change things up from running the same builds

[unique bramble]

Well, good luck, farming this thing is like trying to find a full red headhunter habsburg chest but way rarer.

[chrome minnow]

yeah i’m guessing my best bet is the legacy caches

[unique bramble]

Definitely, wait for some GE and trying getting the two weekly Danny Weaver legacy boxes.

[chrome minnow]

danny weaver? what’s that

[unique bramble]

Basically, you need to find a NPC in Washington called "the snitch" (his location is random for each player in DC), after interacting with him, he gives you the location of two secret vendors on the map, one sells named items, and Danny (the other one) sells a limited number of caches that you buy with textiles.

[chrome minnow]

ah okay thank you

[hollow hill]

Sys Corr is stupidly easy to get with global events and now the weekly legacy caches. Literally had sys drop from one yesterday

The problem with farming it is there's very little windows open to fully make use of events. And with how pvp is, sys Corr is at the bottom of the barrel for it being viable

[mighty girder]

system corruption is great for the appearance mods

[undone timber]

True that

quick question. I used to grind this game pretty hard but havnt played in years. Is there anything major or new i need to be aware of? Also if anyone doesnt mind helping out in game im available for tips that way as well lmao

I just got back into the game after what would have to be at least 2 years off. I would suggest watching a recap vid on youtube to bring you up to speed. Personally that's what I did

How much textiles do you get for each SHD level?

[wraith locust]

None

[kind veldt]

You get textiles from dupes of apparel caches

[astral jacinth]

oh yeah oops, sorry im new

[full zinc]

technically you can get around 70-115 textiles per 4 shd levels, assuming you have all the apparel. apparel caches drop every 4shd

[lunar hare]

sure buddy

[full zinc]

are the added apparel items dropping from caches or just open world sources?

[astral jacinth]

open world sources based on the patch notes

[green hedge]

How do I unlock specific skins for gear ?

Do I need to wear them, destroy them or just own them at some point ?

[undone timber]

either pick them up or junk them off the floor

So just owning is enough , cool
