Centurions has 2 buffs

Either 50% Mag + 50% reload + insta reload when swapping to the weapon

Or 20% WD/RPM

sterile copper
#

So I just shoot Sheriff until it has 1 pellet swap weapons then swap back, sheriff insta fills to 12 shots no reload

#

If you empty the mag it refill the 12 shots but still queues the reload animation for the 13th shot

toxic musk
#

Oh god the realisation has hit that I need a bunch of Proto cores

feral knoll
#

it's like bluescreen with ongoing directive; what reload?

sterile copper
#

So you leave 1 in on purpose and it’s a great time

toxic musk
#

I yearn for double damage rounds in spades

sterile copper
#

Bypasses sheriffs biggest weakness which is the reload

#

Whoever decided to make a pinpoint KSG with double the RPM and no range fall off was a genius

#

Super 90

toxic musk
#

Whoever decided to give it an ornament of all time....concerns me

sterile copper
#

Oh I’m talking about how the base damage is almost as good as the KSG

toxic musk
sterile copper
#

Which is wild to me

kind veldt
#

Well the talent is good

#

If you played around with certain stats

sterile copper
#

Is it even just +35 weapon damage or did they silly it and it’s a multiplier

kind veldt
#

You could get similar accuracy with send off

toxic musk
#

I wonder if they'll ever allow us to apply the Prototype perks to our Exotics

#

I also wonder how high the Prototype perks go, stat wise

sterile copper
#

You can but you’re not getting that same range, nailing an entire retail door from the CP was cathartic

kind veldt
#

That has 30 optimal range

sterile copper
#

Touché it won’t ever beat the primary ARs/LMGs but it’s a lot of fun

Sheriff is definetly my favourite shotgun at the moment

toxic musk
#

Sheriff is the only shotgun I choose to acknowledge tbh

sterile copper
#

i tried to make it a head hunter gun when it came out so it felt super awkward, was messing with the stash and finally saw the Centurion's i kept stashed for so long

toxic musk
#

that one GIF of Shaw from Open Season grinning

#

I will be honest, the Exotic from this seasons Climax has me feeling.... disinterested

sterile copper
#

still debating between TS and strikers to go with it but both do roughly the same and TS feels better on the reload of the automatic primary so

#

will use TS for my personal enjoymen even if the consistency is probably worse

toxic musk
#

Tipping Scales just has the comically large Crit damage. Which feeds the worms in my brain

#

.....that is what you're talking about right? I'm not being stupid, as per

Anyway. I'm gonna nap, then get absolutely zilch on the Prototype gear front

#

The extra WH feels great when I eventually have to reload my GR9

toxic musk
#

I am a fan of using Smart Cover and just swap, swap

#

Oh would you look at that, a bunch of extra rounds to send down range

sterile copper
#

I should use Smart Cover more, been kinda sleeping on it. But with BT9s and BT retal farm for descent comms I’ve just been too lazy to swap out EMP sticky

toxic musk
#

I'm using it with Decoy, I do kinda wanna swap out the Decoy, though. But to what, I have no idea

#

Hmm, anyway. Toodles, be people and such

When will Eagle get a buff? Bring back his talent performance.

hybrid ore
#

Who is this "Eagle", and why do you think he was nerfed?

toxic musk
#

It's that one thing in golf. The thingy, that things thingily

#

When you suck too much to get a hole in one, but you're slightly about average, still

hybrid ore
#

I had an eagle show up at my house a while back.
That thing was definitely buff enough, autralian eagles are massive birds.

toxic musk
#

I stole an eagle once

I started a BT Retal, the very first group had a grenadier that was untouchable, then immediately nuked me with grenades that passed through walls.

Rogue agents in escalation should be guaranteed prototype drop

swap the named drop in escalation from rouges to proto, hey? worth suggesting.

sullen holly
#

What should i farm from exp 21-30 only mods for printer filaments and play some parts to level them up while Playing?

feral knoll
#

the houndsman bounty can be semi-handy for that tho.

sullen holly
fickle edge
#

what's the highest mag size you can get with the modifiers?

tender yew
#

Servers down?

#

Got kicked and wont load up

feral knoll
#

If you drop out and can't connect back in, might have to give it a couple minutes before trying again for console. For PC we can log out/ in the launcher which tends to fix.

rancid echo
#

does lady death drop at all?

half cloud
#

Yes

#

@rancid echo the best way to get lady death it find boss in New York in park and kill then log out and try kill again

zealous hawk
#

is it now better to upgrade expertise donating instead of grinding for printer filament, since everything is bonus exp towards it? seems i can max a category in 2 runs of countdown

feral knoll
#

target loot, try and clear all the gear you can as you'll be able to max out a set every 1-2 runs.

#

save filament until you've run out of targetable gear, imo.

pliant siren
feral knoll
olive junco
sturdy hazel
#

its just grinding item xp

olive junco
#

costs so much though

feral knoll
# olive junco Lvling expertise confuses the heck out of me lol

Essentially, you can donate materials (eg filament) or copies of the same thing. Countdown allows for targeting, so you can target 'Ongoing Directive' for example, then junk all the drops, and select the donate option within expertise. Do that for each gear set.

olive junco
feral knoll
#

It'll take on average about 2 runs to completely max out any given gear set. Can also run some gear/ weapons not yet levelled to gain experience as well.

sturdy hazel
#

go for brand and gear sets, then work on weapons and maybe houndsman bounty if someone is willing for named items

sturdy hazel
#

im lowkey useless in all these runs other than just doing the objectives in countdown, since i have 6 pieces of the same set + random weapons with no good stats but this is the way apparently

feral knoll
#

So all the yellow sets, then all the green.

wow, getting a whole group to run it on normal difficulty is rough though

what's the point of discovery mode then ?

#

I can’t level up my expertise on anything no upgrade option….anyone else?

feral knoll
#

you can donate gear, or wear sets you've not levelled yet.

#

it takes about 90% of all gear we have to reach 30.

tropic sentinel
feral knoll
#

proficency is 1-10; after that you'll need to level more gear.

tropic sentinel
#

Pretty sure he is trying to ++ actual gear here.

tender wave
halcyon relic
#

I’m level 30 and prof in everything pretty much I’m talking the option to bump something up from like 25 to 26

feral knoll
#

needs mats, including exotic.

halcyon relic
#

The option to upgrade doesn’t show up at the bottom

feral knoll
#

are you checking via the tinker workbench? are you sure you have enough materials.

#

it won't block you upgrading if you're at exp 30 for anything you've previously upgraded.

vivid swift
#

does anyone know where the snitch is

tropic sentinel
#

Yes, in one of 42 locations.

halcyon relic
#

@feral knoll dm you

tender wave
# vivid swift does anyone know where the snitch is

He has a chance to spawn whenever you get close to one his spots, if he doesn't you can check a different spot or just log off and on and check the same spot again, usually only takes two or three tries

vivid swift
#

right

tropic sentinel
#

Check a kiosk south west from american museum mission teleport point.

halcyon relic
#

Dz east Charlie cp walk out and go right. Should see green icon on second floor on building on left where there’s ladders

tender wave
#

But he also has a 30m cooldown so if you're running around DC and accidentally spawn him somewhere without noticing, you won't get him to respawn for a bit

tropic sentinel
#

Instead of log off, you can mm for freeroam exploration/bounty and check other players maps. They also might have vendor unlocked already.

unique bramble
#

I still think the best spot is the parking lot across the Jefferson trade mission start.

feral knoll
tender wave
#

Personally I like the spot near Space Admin, mainly because bounties in Southwest are generally pretty easy to reach and do, bounties in East mall are more annoying

tropic sentinel
#

Did they patch true sons bounties appearing in constitution hall 24/7?

dawn ether

its really not that hard to find a person with a bounty you just need to wait

#

and its not essential its a QOL item

vivid swift
#

checked 7 locations and cant find the snitch

tender wave
#

Keep an eye on your lfg channels and you'll often see people offering Houndsman bounties to help you get it.
But yeah it's not great to have something so impactful locked in that way

ask in #lfg-pc as a few people still run the bounty without killing the target.

Yeah you probably triggered a retaliation from your kills at that point

You probably got a hyena retaliation after the 2nd one, as Kettle said, gotta abandon/finish it

I really hope they can fix that sooner rather than later, this has been so confusing for so many folks

Maybe thats a problem. I'll try DUA then we'll see.

There is no 5.

hybrid ore
#

I guess with Mutators+Master they could add a 5, but that feels a bit much, when people running it can already just walk through it with the right setup.
to be 100% honest, anyone that can do that, almost certainly has the blueprints maxed out already, years back most likely.

I mean they have kinda forced the issue locking prototype gear behind that or obnoxiously low drop rates with even lower chances of getting anything you can actually use@edgy fable

Expertise is a system that people slowly grinded out over time. If you're pressuring it you'll really just burn yourself out most likely

Im not a new player I've even restarted on PC. Also saying dont go for the best tier gear in a looter shooter is kinda silly

This may be a stupid question but I assume you can only tinker a weapon or item once, like you cant keep tinkering with an item after you've added an attribute or talent?

@edgy fable O its instantly gratification expecting to progress your build at all after running a mode 20 times......the nerve of me

Prototype Gear is HANDLED DIFFERENTLY in certain modes, including Raids, Incursion, and PvP (Dark Zone and Conflict).

Been farming prototype gear between tier 3-6 and have had mixed results. Sometimes I’d play and get 2, 3 and at most 4 drops! Often times I’d get 0. But they are of poor quality.

Was wondering (for those who’ve completed up to 10 tiers) if it is even worth the extra effort from tier 7-10. Is there a high chance of getting more drops or better quality (god rolls)?

If we are still getting poor quality at higher tiers or about the same amount, guess I’ll stick to the lower tiers 😅

@feral knoll Before New York, was normalised DZ and No ,Invaded never was Normalised ,For example if you have 3% crit chance in your weapon in normal Dz if you rerol its anyway will be 6 %, but when you was going to Invaded its will still show 3% even if you roll 6%, its was mechanics done by Massive

And Massive all the time was have talent on each item ,only chest armour, and back pack have 2 ,

Now its looks like Massive working again on game

The higher tiers have higher chance, but it's still clearly quite low percentage.

If you want to be the more proeficient (without having fun though)
Equip every slot of something not xp (don't care about what is it). Means also skills, specialization, weapon and armor. Doesn't have to be set. Make sure to have 1 exo armor and weapon as it is what you'll max last.
Go to countdown, target what you don't have for now. Do challenging, not heroic.
Swap everytime something is maxed.
And no, for me, targetting mods is not worth. Even if you're full expertise of what you loot, you'll get a bunch of resources (1600 to 2000 white + green + blue) you can donate.

feral knoll

Yeah kofeyh is right too, save all resources for stuff you don't have or exos. Named limited items and so.

feral knoll
#

I know like half the youtube channels go on about filament every time there is a boost, but earlier on, target all the sets, both High-End and Gear Sets.

#

the only time filament makes sense is if there is a materials boost and or you've run out of sets and gear to expertise/ donate for.

I’ve got 912 SHD level rewards and I want to prioritize expertise. Is it better to use it on printer filaments or cash (to then buy gear or gear mods to deconstruct) ?

signal dagger
#

Mods are good when there's uncrafting or when you can use watch 1000+ on them... And manage to lvl fast. Otherwise... It's a trap, for me. Equip those exos on you and run countdown. I'd say target something like armor or a weapon so you can drop exos you'll likely need later (for prototype). Btw you level faster a weapon if u have it in arm, not in secondary slot.

# edgy fable It's called `threat`

Threat consists of several factors. Not sure I fully know what's all part of it but it's for sure damage you deal to NPCs, firing time, distance/proximity towards the NPCs. Also visibility/LoS

these dudes really stop shooting while still aiming at me and eating bullets from every angle it’s embarrassing

balmy narwhal
#

tho the only other time you may not be focused is if someone is a little too close for them

wild hearth
#

actually does decoy works in this situation?

edgy fable
#

Ye. Decoy generates threat

wild hearth
#

even if someone is kicking high DPS build?

delicate rose
#

maybe i should start using those

edgy fable
#

Depends on its expertise level I might say

feral knoll
#

it's still threat based; if you are rolling huge DPS then drop a decoy, basically have to stop shooting for a bit to let it draw agro. Also it generally has to be line of sight for NPCs to care.

today i failed Lego and Recruiter because team didnt played for shit

suicide bomber running PAST my teammate to blow me up

edgy fable

Pretty common lol

I think they mean they got frustrated and turned to.. other content. But I can't be sure.

even have a clip of a hyena rc car. driving in circles bc it couldn’t get to me and couldn’t be bothered to attack anyone else

cuz remember, at tier 0/1, its only 100% threat which will quite rapidly be put on a lower priority

agile gyro

time da hell out

thanks guys for the tips i will probably be back with some questions though lol

#

what level of escalation matches legendary difficulty? 5?

balmy narwhal
#

supressors also decrease threat, but dont quote on me that since they did in Div 1 and they told you about it, Div 2 no clear indication

edgy fable
wild hearth
#

level 5 means 500% of npc health and dmg

feral knoll
#

The bow guys are so sassy!
_Oooo supressed, how original! 😐 _

ruby canopy
#

@edgy fable i was mulling over goin all red in a legendary hahah ok maybe il take a back seat

delicate rose
#

prototype gear drop challenge

wild hearth
#

imo escalation is lame

balmy narwhal
edgy fable
wild hearth
#

in terms of getting proto raids shall work better

i just had it drummed into me early on off players to go atleast 3 blue on a legendary

about to close the app ngl

balmy narwhal
#

i used to use the crutch of striker but i switched to OD with Liquid Engineer, i used to get domed as quickly as a striker

delicate rose
#

like i literally cannot play the game

balmy narwhal
#

btu ever since i got that Liquid Engineer, with the Tinkerer for steady handed, ive just become a sentry

edgy fable
#

Liquid Engineer is pretty mid

balmy narwhal
#

Stoner+Tinkerer to have a second LMG with Steady Handed, thats it, all i need is someone under a status effect and ill just get the ball rolling

ruby canopy
#

whats considered good dps for a legendary? if your doin 600k-700k is that deemed good?

#

obviously hindered by 3 blue cores

edgy fable
#

Try all red. Use tall cover. Corner peek to take out NPCs. Prioritize the ones that would harm you there

#

Usually drone ladies and grenadiers

delicate rose

#

@edgy fable dude they aint no ladies they fight dutty

turbid kraken
#

bruh i just died in heroic and got fully wiped back to start (90% of mission done) cuz my hive drone didnt work insane..

ruby canopy
#

il maybe play some more escalation all red and try play better to get hit less while dealing good dps before i try all red legendary....i have done plenty legendaries but usually plenty survivability and missions lasted hours

turbid kraken
#

WHY GAME WHY

cosmic zodiac
#

anyone wana sanity check me

turbid kraken
#

WHY DID THE DAMN HIVE DIDNT WORK, HELLO

delicate rose
#

yeah i’m uninstalling this game

ruby canopy
#

@turbid kraken it happens alot that

cosmic zodiac
#

pestilence reload speed seems to not be affected by weapon handling.

turbid kraken
#

solid 20 min down the drain cuz of bug, wild

cosmic zodiac
#

is that how it works or is it bugged

turbid kraken
#

i have honestly no idea, my character dropped the hive, the hive disappeared and i died lol

cosmic zodiac
#

your hive can get destroyed

#

have had it happen before

#

i dont think its a bug pretty sure an enemy or explosion or some such can destroy the hive before it revives you cause it does have HP

turbid kraken
#

are priority objective daily? or can i spam them as much as i want

cosmic zodiac
#

you can spam them

turbid kraken
#

dope, will def help me get my SHD watch level up

turbid kraken
#

+2mln exp for completing stronghold, gimme my exp. Nah but fr iam pissed off, that my hive straight up disappeared in the last boss fight

feral knoll
#

hive can be burst damaged by NPC standing over you, also there needs to be enough room for it to drop, if you are hard up against an L shaped wall when you croak, the hive can mis-deploy due to obstructions. Also if there is anything EMP related forget it.

cosmic zodiac
#

the enemies can destroy it

feral knoll
#

Hive is not 100% reliable unfortunately, no skill really is. I've fired foam at dudes and they just walk straight out, random hunters ignore the new EMP seasonal ability, and so on.

#

can 100% relate to the frustration, all the same.

young cargo
#

Thats one reason i could never do hardcore mode. I dont want to go days in game then get death by hive bug :/

turbid kraken
#

And afaik outcasts dont have EMP carrier unless i missed something

mighty creek
#

Also please dont use striker drone, and assault turret when fighting against hunters, I almost got killed by a hacked striker drone yesterday.

#

Pretty sure I saw a hacked stinger hive as well.

brave breach
#

So what should i focus on i jave no odea

signal dagger
#

I just saw a message about proto and raid. Isn't it only a cache of 2 proto cores each week ? I mean, raids takes a bit of time and knowledge no ?

neon merlin
#

I did the incursion and got 2 proto core... It's only to upgrade the proto gear no ? 😭

signal dagger
#

Upgrade and reroll the talent you get. I also think you need them to level up the talent.

#

Well 2 proto for a full incursion seems not a lot actually xd

edgy fable
#

Costs one core to upgrade to proto. The costs to change augments increases exponentially ~

feral knoll
#

hnnn, you know it's time to change servers when you attempt to use cover and rubber-band between two points like 100 feet apart.

WTF new gear set core strength in pvp is over power

Unit alloy
Ninja back pack
And its have +6 skill level
2.3 mil armour

When regular all red build with 1 m armour around 54k weapon damage in pvp
Do they done pts or its joke

edgy fable
#

Yup that seems the general consensus about CS in PvP

feral knoll
#

yes they tested, hence the PTS. That does not automatically mean the set will be perfectly balanced right out of the gate.

real quick i’m coming back to division and like i can’t remember where my character went should i just completely restart

You can vote players out btw

gloomy rain

yes but you cant retroactively add players

agile gyro

How hard is it for players not to be childish in CD? lmao

gloomy rain

removing the player does nothing when the problem is someone being afk

edgy fable

Vote out afk player - problem gone

gloomy rain

how does kicking an afk gun fix the problem of being down a gun...

#

either way you are still down a gun my good sir

There is no problem
