Ye i don't use it in harder content tho as there's no need to rush
meet potential pistol
titanfall ahh pistol but no parkour in this game
niche uses thats what your describing and if you just play smart you dont have to worry about getting to a place faster. i think the talent cool but overrated. id rather the lexington comeback so people who didnt get the chance to get one can get it
Can't imagine a door run in Capitol leggo without Quickstep now. I'd rather use it and hotswap than crawl like a turtle with Regulus. 🤣
Same for Tidal, btw.
And pretty much everything else.
I havent done Capitol since Quickstep dropped
if you've ever had to chase elite patrols, which have the absolute worst zoomies, you'll find quickstep suddenly quite useful. They slide around the map something chronic.
And since my build relies on DCGH, swapping out is not ideal
Hello, I am chungus carrying 500 lbs of armour and a flamethrouwer but I also move at 30 mph.
swapping from a primary to quickstep clears the primary's talent
And if you get from a > b with 15-20 seconds lead, how long does it take to get the talent back?
Smart positioning is absolutely key in harder content. I'd rather be the one on the offense than be on the defense. It is not niche to be camping spawns in Legendaries.
That said, it all depends on play style and how builds either work, or don't work, for each person.
I dont know what weapon talents are retained between in and out of combat, but I hardly use them to know about them. All I can think of is Determined. But even then you just get a headshot and voila
I hope pink hunter
im hoping we get chances for lexington drops but i dont think we will cuz of the new weapons
smart positioning doesn't equal require getting to places faster, ive played this game since launch pretty much what i learned is that crutching on a specific talent is far worse than just knowing smart positioning. like we in the early days crutched on the classic mia SO BAD that when the nerf came around i had to learn how to be versatile and it made me a better player.
You'll get all the event weapons and other stuff, I'm 100% sure. 🙂
im really glad you like it and can find uses for it but its not required for anything.
Honey badger is a rarer gun than Lexington at least for me
niceeeee
tru i swear that drop can be once in a blue moon for me sometimes
I mean, positioning can be done with and without Quickstep, but with it, time can be saved and the whole run can be much smoother.
Can run to save team mates who are downed , plenty times came in clutch
Especially tidal or manning leg big spaces
Quickstep is literally easy code to every situation
Quickstep with immune Aug 
Is there any other way to get Future Initiative except completing Iron Horse?
materials or the gearset?
Gearset
its in the general loot pool
Just do targeted loot
CD would be ur best friend.
Quickstep lifesaver in Retalions saves to much run time hahaha
pfft goddamn it my drink taste like ants, eem anyways
anyways quick step sounds like an absolute fire of an idea for a medic because you know, every second matters
Whats this about?
Hi Ageci, I have a problem, I deleted the character, there is a chance to get it back quickly, I sent a message to ubisoft but I haven't received a response yet
let's hope they contact you asap, this place isn't any closer to customer support than it is
Ahh thank you, I'll wait for a response from ubisoft
Why is kenly college always closed?
It's a limited time thing.
Hello everyone.
Does prototype gear tradable? or account bound? came back after long pause. last time played last year i think. Prototype loot color is different or same as high end? does it show on radar?
Yeah, you can share it if earned in a group. It's purple color or green if you have deuteranopia enabled.
I think you can craft that. Blue print obtaining through specialisations. I think. I am but hazy but pretty sure that how i got mine
Honey badger is a top tier gun I believe the handling feels great and the optimal range seems to be better than it says it is
the only downside is that ur losing out on a muzzle slot for crit attachments
Ye it did perform well still tho the last time I used it
It's the savage wolverine that shines it used to be me go to weooon give it a try if you like honeybadger
Correct. Which is where FAMAS comes in
Might have to tickle it on a high end setup 💯
Because the talent is perfect. Close and personl when go get a kill it give 50% weapon damage and seems to have unlimited optimal range while the talent is active that's how it used to be anyway not sure if was changed in recent times
Ew that talent 🫣
Yeah that talent only activates when you're in close range which I try to never be
Yes so you need a close range kill then the gun gets wild
Yes it's the only downside to the gun might try the base version with killer or something later see if it still gives the optimal range
Hey guys
it pairs great with hf
How long does the server reset normally take
Can't say that's too far off from a build idea. I've used Ceska + Fenris on hunters fury and got strega working with it. The mag size was horrible. But that was before we got Unit Alloy and ODogs
Log out or change the session. If doesn't help, then close the game and boot it up again.
What platform
Purple = PC
Red = PlayStation
Green = Xbox
the crossplay only comes this year right?
yeah strega is ass unfortunately, i recommend using the seasonal modifier to stack its mag size
should but I've got into stating otherwise. I can't speak further
Ubi after all huh.
Well, more like the idea was a solid one but it's not coming without problems
It will be pushed tho. If they have to scrap it we WILL be told for sure
it never does come without problems, pvp etc its always gone be a area people will have complains about
Yeah there will always be complaints. With these issues, it's a classic case of "development hell". That's what's going on. I won't speak further
(bugs and bugs along the way and things not going right is what I mean by "development hell")
yea i figured
Yeah crossplay definitely won't come without loads of work for them to do. They're pushing for sure. Let them cook 💯
ive got recently into div but ive already put 190 hours in
its nice to see that ubi for once supports a game people still love to play
Currently at 160 hours and I'm enjoying the game.
It claps hard if you pair it with 3 unit, Ceska, Grupo and ODogs
I've expertised mine to 30 and I'm hitting body crits for 1.9m
Ooo and I'm using the mag modifier too. It hits so hard
I have a question regarding retal in ask-td2, can someone clarify things for me?
sorry will do ^^
Might go for another 50 SHDs tonight
matchmakes a mission
then some goon joins and goes to the dz instead?
Ah yes, a fellow troll. Gotta love people like that
average random Monday be like :
need him gone 4ever
Oh jeez, I hope there will be 1000 SHD level event.
Why not follow him to DZ and go rogue 
in this season*
what are we betting on Cherry Blossom event?
3x experience sounds abit too early, no?
err in about 2 hours 3 mins
I know but guessing makes it fun.
maybe they will be surprised by another 3x proficiency event
bc he suxks
guy in my game talking but i’m listening to music so i can’t hear him lol
try not to get too carried away with expecting/ hoping for xp or prof events, we've just had a few recently.
The more, the merrier. Nah I'm kidding.
Idk how people use voice chat in-game but my mic sucks 
Is it normal while matchmaking for heroic quests I get into escalation t5 runs?
I'm still low SHD and dont want to ruin ppl runs
Its pretty annoying
i rarely get 5
never got anything above that
Make sure you a) attempt to place the microphone deep withing your trachea, then b) speak as though you're trying to have a conversation with someone 300 feet away.
Heroic quests?
eh, was SHD 230 and I dealt more damage compared to these high levels
SHD isn't a thing in this game anymore, it's how you play.
You mean microphone ASMR
? I can do that and make their ears bleed-
nah, for my own sanity.
I will avoid that
Heroic difficulty yeah
And you might deal more DMG but are you supporting the team in any way? I can get a striker build on and do lots of DMG but when 2 guys are down I'm of no use when being rushed by mobs
Then there are players with 5K SHD level using turret and drone against Hunters in Countdown. Saw someone else got killed by a hacked turret.
Well, the fact that we have zero healer and I'm the only person who runs Banshee/Revive hive.
What's ur guess then?
The others running drones and turrets.
hey chat best mods for ksg shotgun?
"My teammates are my enemies" ahh
Maybe this time the hunter will not hack my turret. For sure they won't. Oh, I have been downed by my own turret again, let me sit on the ping key so I make sure people around me truly understand the mistake I have just made and not res me for some reason.
I have now laser pointer, rugged mini reflex sight and hard tubular
What is Cherry Blossom event?
We'll find out soon.
Yes. (we do not yet know).
Depends on your stats, or build.
Supports are great in general, but you really don't wanna drag the mission into 30 minutes.
oh sorry I will post a pic in td2 build advice
Now that I've fallen into the ground, I shall leave the game without giving a chance to my teammates reviving me 
And say "gg team"
That kind of player should remain in the shooting range ngl.
and then come here and complain about how bad other players are.
teammate went down and crawled away from me 😭
It is vital to wait until someone has run all the way back/ through the fires of mount doom and a hail of gunfire, to only then disconnect, ensuring that person is locked in the res animation (while the downed person's connection eventually times out) and is also then immediately killed.
We need a credit score for Countdown, leaving the match will deduct your score and be unable to play for 2 hours.
Too low, you can only play normal Countdown 
I wish friendly fire exist in the Countdown
well timed decoys can be clutch
Oh you're giving up? Here, let me make it real quick-
Technically, if a team mate intentionally tries to get the team killed, aren't they effectively rogue? There's a solution for that..
Roam grenades might be cancerous if they can affect the teammates
I jest, tho, it's rare that I've seen players intentionally do something to cripple the team, it's mostly just dumb mistakes like dropping a turret on a hunter and then having it down half the team who have rushed it with shotguns.
no wonder i wasn’t doing dmg
Both hilarious and also not helpful.
I think Blackout Pulse is the one carrying me in literally everything.
Kamikaze drones?
Press T
the EMP modifier for this season is pretty rad.
hate them sm
Hunter recovered from Banshee?
Press T
What time is the dev stream?
Well, I died to them like 80 times when I tried my first legendary mission.
And thrower too.
BTSU drone production line goes brrr. Between that and the grenadiers having 100% uptime it's a tad brutal.
need them gone
guys if I buy deluxe edition in store do I get the exotic ruthless and the shotgun ? its says I already have the ruthless
uh idk
High chance they will just give another copy of Ruthless.
Anyone know when crossplay between PC/consoles is out? Also is there a sweaty dark zone pvp community like there was on D1? (I hope there is)
dropped an exotic for someone in the dz and they slimed me
That's the dz for ya
what if u were hiding more exotics in ur bag
"Oh thanks! Here's my gift."
No official date has been announced atm. Just somewhere this year
whats the targeted loot selector if i want to farm for overdogs, gloves?
Yep
Would be a bit too easy if you could select exotic as a choice
Hyena retaliation, gloves targeted or exotic cache
tyty
Do hyena retal with gloves targeted and you got double the chances of getting it
And twice the disappointment when you don't
Morning , so i have a question . Back in 21019 there was discord bots that division provided for us the shds bot and patch bot . Do they still provide these bots
uh
Nope
I wonder what it feels like to be old player Division 2
Death and despair
and cracking bones.
That too
It has been eons
Damn wonder why they got rid of the update patch bot
I think it was because of people abusing the bot
They shds bot i can understand because that krpt track more of clan stats


they even have their own cosmetics
wait wut
It is they have their own division 2
yes, remember the anubis one? i think its from asian div2
Correct
😭
it was just a pestilence too
The outfit looks sick ngl.
Your exotic is our exotics so pass it over
Say I want a specific chest piece, like the Equalizer (Unit Alloys). Do I select the chest piece or Unit Alloys as the targeted loot?
Unit alloy
Thanks
google "division 2 asia cosmetics" or watch a youtube video about it. they have stuff straight outta space
wait, did u get slimed by the same guy who tried to talk in your lobby?
They have an inflatable dino costume:)
the first picture is "Division 2 hot female asian outfit"
wth brother
so how do i get the new prototype rarity gear here
defuq xDD
your algorithm is cooked
They have alot of stuff like that lots of micro transactions
It's nothing special. You just remember things others don't. Like the DZ introduction missions, missions had dialogue when you scrolling over em, and pestilence had a completely different exotic perk. Shooting an enemy build stacks on em. At max they'd explode into a cloud of dc 62 which did damage to surrounding enemies
honestly i havent expected that
I would pay 2k credits for Non La.
if i do retaliation while my inv has 20/20 caches, i don't get the exotic or named caches? damn
They had a bikini and trunk for the summer cosmetic sale brother
i cant xDDDD
Ain't that abit OP?
I'm a returning player and just crafted the capacitor and I noticed that all it's stats were maxed out. This is my first crafted exotic and it got me wondering of crafted exotics always drop with maxed out stats. Was going to craft a few more exotics I have materials but thought I'd ask first in case I just got lucky. So are crafted exotics always maxed?
useless fun fact: lexington is better than police m4 by exactly 3.79815633825331699259338200032%
Nope. It sucked so bad that's why they changed it
Get your math out of here
:(
What's the stack are we're talking, like 100 stacks and it goes kaboom?
its an interesting talent but i prefer the pestilence the way it is now
Incorrect, Lexington is better by 3.79815633825331699259338200033%
Bud it was back in 2019 I don't remember the stack count. I just remember that the guns dps was absolute dog water and the cloud dmg wasn't much different. But it looked cool
bro is from the future
Would be nice to have that talent in Escalation
Negotiator Dilemma with Bluescreen is crazy in Escalation ngl.
Lexington will be earnable in the new event

says who?
The drone will get a cherry blossom themed vfx
Me, myself and I
Sakura flowers will drop from the drone upon killing an enemy.
you had my curiosity but now you have my attention
Nah it will just drop as the thing flies around
bat drone but in the spring
Same like the bat skin
Real bet tho. Seeker gets a dumpling vfx
nah this was like weeks ago
winter in dc when?
hopefully tomorrow
When survivors drops
i really miss winter in the division
You expect snow and stuff in a spring event in dc
Yeah that adds up
div1 had a complete different atmosphere. still very much enjoying it
No don't expect me
Okay peak reply
there is a reason i said winter and not snow haha

If it's snowing tomorrow, I might reinstall the game.
Big chance the upcoming dlc will be winter. Bfb was fall
i kinda have mixed feelings about prototype. i wanna upgrade my best build but i also wanna wait for the future because of recalibration and stuff
While I'm stuck at exp 16
Prototype is something
Or autum of you wanna be a big word mister or misses fancy pos
i got from 20 to 30 within the event. just used random gear until it was proefficient while spamming lincoln memorial on hard with matchmaking
Uh-huh what's it to me lol
i reacted to the wrong message, fixed it
Lol
tried to do heroic retal, the ambush team never stop
😭 I only benefit like 2 days full
The rest were wasted due to work, so I can't reach my target which is exp 20
F
But other than that, the event gave me god rolled overdogs 
The grind never stops
at exp 20 you only need 90 points each level up. which is good
20-30 felt faster then 10-20
i mean much faster
16 to 20
And every season you get additional 40 points you can use to level up expertise
thats correct. i have 407 pieces from 472 pieces fully proefficient. that was the point i reached 30
it snowed yesterday for me so
not impossible
Do you live in dc
wait, so we get 40 exp points from every seasonal pass or
am I cooked, chat?
new weapons and gear get added each season.
Every season we get new gear set, exotic and named items
yes
1 brand, 1 gear set, 2 named armor, 2 named items, 2-3 exotics and sometimes event weapons
so around 90 proficient points
Tasty
Cool
But I said that it added up didn't I. That wasn't sarcasme
So who can give me a run down on what i missed in the last 4 years .
plot or gameplay?
Both
We don't got enough text for all that
Lmao snow
Somehow ||Keener returned.||
I think someone did a recap on that and it's about 5-12 hours long
Just watch NGN video cuh
It's an audio book at this point lol
seasons got reworked a lot, weekly riddles, long term grinding journey, seasonal modifiers every new season that change how you play, final missions of the season now have a special hard mode with unique exotics rewards
Hmmm, 4 years huh. May I interest you in Expertise?
Will you be watching the live stream in like 30 mins?
Yeah we can't really recap 4 years of lore in a a single discord message
Nice
usually running around in the kitchen that time
I was a heavy player till about 22 . Sea of thieve ended up stealing me Fully . But i found my way back to dc
Give me TLDR later will you
rivens already does that
Ok Zoro
Oh he did? How convenient.
Rivens is the goat for that
just dont go around pinging her
but she’s my bestie
Just wish this game had cross progression . I had all the exoxtics god rolled . All mask from dc and new york . Now i play on pc and have to do all that shit over agai.
(im delusional)
ah ok
What you mean
Crossplay is in the works. Dont know when.
Endgame grind that appeared few years ago.
I know cross play is coming . They need cross progression
Nah
Yes i dont want to start back over when i was already lvl 500 ish when i stopped
Oh
Only 500?
Pray the quintuple exp boost event will appear sometime during this season.
You bailed halfway from the grind to 1000 sadge
500 was high back during year 2
err Im sure people already reaching 2K in year 2
You think i have to hook up my xbox and check it out
saw a dude above lvl 20k
but he was on his hands and knees 80% of the mission so it didn’t mean much
305 here
Level != skill and knowledge
Its just unfortunate that there was no Expertise when I was active during year 2.
Still unable to catch up until now.
buddy has 4k hours but is still buns
Not really
People grinded like crazy back then
People grinded level like crazy back then because theres nothing else to grind
Then expertise came.
Yoo-hoo
Anyway brb, need to hang my laundry
Is the chainsaw guy still in the serwers . And does still drops the stuff to make flashlight
I think i remeber that being a thing
I got 3089 hours. Been playing since the open beta. My SHD lvl is 4240 and expertise is 23
i think it's just in the general blueprint pool now, i have it even though i didn't do any of that
Yeah i need to log into my xbox and see what my lvls was
but i don't think they removed the chainsaw guy
I stopped for like 2 years from burnout and returned before season 2.0
hey i need to ask when i can get black tusk retalation ? need for the dailes been doing open world content like for an hour and still didnt get it, targeting black tusk activities
kill anything related to black tusk
They take longer to obtain
praying they will say on today stream on the new event lex will come
Try doing high difficulty missions and bounties. Those give a decent amount to the bar
Oh oh please tell me the flat earth easter egg ia still in the game
Invaded mission and bounties give a lot
Are you seeing progress on the retaliation tab of your map menu?
where i can check that ?
edit i did check its almot 1
Everyone talking about lex but nobody talking about stack broker
Map menu, retaliation tab...
stack broker is nice
just need it to shoot even faster
Can you still do the flat earth easter egg with the copy machines. I forget what lvl ( late storey )
its shown zero but , the white parts almost full
Yes
Nice
I always got a laugh at all the flat earth easter in all of ubiaoft games
Makes me wonder if the owner of ubisoft was actaully a flat earther
Let it be 5x exp event
Do some more BT stuff then and it should fill. Invaded missions and BT missions like Pentagon, White Oak etc give a decent chunk of progress
the SHD network is flat, don’t let manny tell you otherwise
IIRC a Heroic Stronghold always maxed it out, by the time you're done.
Oh yk one thing I don't like to bring up but only real OG's of TD2 do remember.
Somehow a certain slur got passed the check and made it into one of the art pieces that was scattered around DC. It was very quickly removed. And no I will not say what the slur was.
Just bringing it up bc you'd only know if you played day one back in 2019
I do remwber this lmao
oh right in the art
i didnt know doing the mission give progress thanks man
As well as the paintings in the one therter was al easter egg for asssin creed vahlla ( up coming launch at the time )

The Stream is Live: https://discord.com/events/477210626742288384/1494747255612112956
Give me TLDR
The 2 outfits are 🔥 already
Hosts are Leo and Anais
well i'm a sucker for ninjas
arent we all
anyone facing a bug with unable to interact with the gear stash from territory control ? or the countermeasures in countdown
The 2nd outfit with a hunter mask
Japanese Hunter
Cherry Blossom Event is always active at Lvl 40
We're gonna fly to Japan next?
Implied similar event to xmas presents
damn
OH DANG
thats pretty cool
that's the division 3
Or forza Horizon 6 I don't know anymore
oh they're cooking.
i think that was event shop
They definitely cooked
they cooked hard
very delicious event
this might actually top the halloween decoration's
leading with one of the social areas is certainly something
They have to make it a toggable after the event is over
i guessing this is similar to the winter event
def gonna take a picture of myself
even with the new players I feel like the amount of people who go to the settlement social areas has to be super low
Awh damn it stream started
guess it will be just like before, every settlement get's the decoration's
why are people asking for lex and tumoral in chat 💀
let's get this straight, we're in a middle of America's anarchy crisis, opposing forces every 2 hours, and we have time to do this Asian culture appropriation stuff? hell yeah
godayum this looks GOOOD
they cooked so hard
saw one guy asking why is prtotypes so expensive
I dont remember getting hit by a truck so why am I here?
XD
because everyone needs their 4 extra damage
and because turmoil being time limited was really dumb
Feels like I just got isekai'ed now.
YOO the raman shop
what size this update? 20 gigs?
ts peak

can we eat here
no info atm
naruto fans will enjoy this
this is peak
Jfc the Twitch chat is awful.
most likely it will be just like the Christmas decor
because it's gonna be like last time despite the update size it's a bit of a "why even bother with optimization and logistics" amirite
im surpirsed this discord dosnt have a content thread
"Interact with ominous looking paper lanterns to "see what happens"".
OML NINJA HUNTERS
Hunter.
Theme of the event is "good vs evil"
100% hunter
that's......aggressively generic? isn't that what we always have been doing in the game?
except we're the bad ones for killing Hunters repeatedly
oni hunter will be sick
kitsune hunters, do i have to bring fish?
Everyone say thank you to the nice concept art lady showing up, being on a stream is nerve-wracking
according to manny in recent manhunts probably not (?)
Thank you.
since we (the people killers) don't just kill people on the spot
nO thank you
bro poor lady was SO nervous bless her heart
thank you art lady you're doing so well out of your comfort spot
Kill Squad similar enemies will ambush you in the LZ every "10 or so minutes". They have a health link
SHD tech may malfunction when fighting
so it looks like well get ambushed by a group of outcast's in pink
reskinned/reworked outcasts
Well i waas sorta right
once defeated, 2 bosses will arrive, petals falling will change colour from pink to dark blue
fox ronin
So if Outcast and Hunters had a baby
oh my lord i love them, WEEBOO OUTCASTS
Yep, they're Hunters
key drops are affected by difficulty level
so reskin rogue agents
they are not making this easy with how dark & dusty this footage is
theyre my new favorite designs
no they're hunters
i think otherwise
Division writing polarizes between gray muddy espionage and SUDDENLY JAPAN
Ofc theyre showing Lexington 🤣
when you interact with "corrupted decorations" (purple lanterns) will spawn a nearby kill-squad like enemy, unlocking 4 lanterns will reward you with an Arm Patch
40 is wild
Like the christmas gifts
sakura sakura i forgot the rest of the song
so just winter event
keys from event will unlock 1 of 3 caches, Apparel Cache has a limited total, you can buy them with premium credits No other caches can be bought with premium currency
winter caches but in spring
Hunters with cape?
oh look the lexington is back, people can finally get their 3.8% damage
that fox mask is so sick
everybody FREAK OUT 4K DAMAGE
aaaaaaaaand of course the monetisations
good lord
I need them
nowholdon, gear cache gonna give the GUN or a skin for the gun?
They cooked so hard with the cosmetics gadamn
take my money
Where can i find some nice free cosmetics
gear cache can drop Prototype Gear. can NOT be bought with premium currency.
wtf
i had suspicion that these are taken from the chinese branch studio but i can't prove it
yeah i have to farm this shit, no way im missing out
Backpack with single strap
I called it they put prototype into caches
Escalation is gonna be low then but thank god
ISAC, clip that.
cant wait to grind these event
cosmetics
they knew escalation sucks so they kneecapped it during this event 
ANNA, clip that.
who dat
that kitsune mask is so Ubisoft coded
30 keys are needed to max out the Apparel Cache, can be obtained through gameplay
30 keys for all cosmetc is chill
AC shadow x the division 2
Sushi Hunter?
WTF was that emote
new lucky cat emote (picture them moving their arm up an down)
Seems fast enough
thats a fire emote
so, we gotta kill the hunters to get the keys?
I'am not using that emote.
oh no my friend is gonna love that
most people in the winter event got it day 1
Honestly I'm just happy more stuff to play
Lexington drops during this Event
PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFT
Turmoil as well
no quick step lol
Chill Out mask as well
interesting tempting but no , i am one with the capcitator
Community Cache is gained by donating keys, all platforms are tied together
oh boy, time to stash it.
me but with st elmo😭
No more Lexingtons, please! 😩
other cosmetics
Imagine they make the blueprints available for players
Dang where'd you get the mask
Kimochi
community event
80 keys for the bamboo patch also seems easy lol
the bamboo and wave patch looks pretty
people gonna go crazing grind for it
Is it gonna be a pass or do i have to buy it
Rising Sun Fox Headgear is a login reward
So will I. I'm a grinder
3 weeks in total for the event.
content creators collab is coming back, with new stuff added
YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH
same im with you on that
3 weeks is so much time
I can finally make Yusuke from Persona
Kinda
new creator cosmetics
Which Creators?
my friend recently watch this anime about kitsune, fishwoman yuri yokai, she's gonna like this mask
Im a sucker for free stuff, that would go well with jiro's suit ngl
You WILL play anime shooters and you WILL enjoy it
We're going full weeb ladies and gentlemen.
I love all the backpacks are the anniversary backpack but I love it at the same time
UwU
arm patches are coming back via creator codes
I mean have you seen the chinese version?
So lex and turmoil is back right?
yes
for the event yes
Praying for turmoil
Are they back as in you can get from targeted loot runs or just from the events gear cache?
Unfortunately I can only play during the last week but that means I gotta GRIND
remember this is curated weeb stuff comparing to chinese server stuff
new paid bundles coming with Event, 2 outfits, and 1 VFX bundle
just event caches
I can be onboard for that.
The cherry blossom weapon skin is gonna be my new main 🔥
the best weapon skin only 30 mins😫
at least its not furry
I wonder what the proto drop rate is in the caches...
0.0001%
LEXI GGIVE ME LEXIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
patch coming tomorrow, keep using bug reporter, "its been a big help"
Im not tech savvy with these kind of events i mostly play only, but how do twitch drops work
balance patch maybe (?)
Gang do we think downtime will be long?
ubi support say they cant get me the weapons their own bugs deconstructed for me
big F
How does one get a gear cache? I'm not sure they explained
just let us choose to preload the dang update, game
Escalation patch and proto gear
Oho
connect ur ubi acc to ur twitch and just watch it
prototype drop gear rates are increasing in escalation tier 2-10.
That seems optimistic... 😟
Increase rate for prototype drop in escalation tier 2-10
Protoype skill teir = 1.5
Imagine proto exotics
no
don’t give them ideas
daily targeted loot rotation for escalation coming tomorrow
Where is the new backpack preview
Eventually no doubt
proto exotics are definitely coming eventually
Amazing!
Unfortunately
They said they will look into it, in the future. Not confirmed
Give bullet king twice the magazine
2400 
Unironically would buff OD
I wonder how they'll make exotic protos work. Make the exotic talents a "Perfect" version of it?
their balancing isn't exactly fun already for proto update what's gonna happen to proto exotics? they learned their lessons?
Perma TS
Since it uses 100 round magazine as base
Stream is OVER
sick
10/10 event
awh
its better then the winter event
it's still a pain in the hive that they don't let us preload the patch update
Eagle bearer twice the tenacity duration, only needing 1 kill to negate damage
I wasn't there for the winter one
I was here when the first apparel event dropped
Not the theme I'm most interested in but doesn't matter, looks that it'll be lots to grind for.
How long do we think downtime will be?
likely <t:1776670200:t> +5 hours
So I wont be able to play before I have to leave
seems to be the usual time now
depends, how long have you not heard ANNA's voice
well i'm a sucked for ninjas so this worls well for me
New one strap backpack
same ill be grinding 24/7
Which also means I'll only be able to play on the final week💔
they gonna add a skin for the ninjabike backpack, making them a wooden box?
or even better, a literal miniturized japanese bike
Rare Ubisoft W
no backpack trophy huh
W event
The option to hide vest for all outfits when
Honda Motocompo that came with the Honda City Turbo 
i prefer the term rare Massive Studio W
W event cherry blossoms in DC is so perfect and the cosmetics looks good
so who else is doing day 1 apparel max out
not me, i'm not that much of a sweater
What that mean
trying to get all apparels day 1
getting all 30 apperal on day 1
prob won’t since it last 3 weeks not in a rush
donate apparel cache keys to box get EVENT THEMED cosmetics
How even
Playing a lot
exp farm?
some of us crazy like that me included
I finished season pass grind on day 2
If it means getting the kitsune mask I'll probably do the same
How is that physically possible even
keys from fighting the enemy ambushes
ah ok
lots of xp grinding its honestly not that hard
is Rivens writing the TLDR right now?
Anyone got the event details or how it functions
run around open world and u get ganked every 10 minutes
Link i think if that's how it works
they mentioned HEALTH LINK
its gonna take a bit for people to tell you how it works just watch the stream again
how come we don't get that kinda cool toys
cuz we not special
:((((
We lost the technology from TD1 to TD2 
but but mommy kelso said everyone's special in their own way
It funny how Keener is in the white house chilling
Probably one of his genjutsu (messing with the shd lens)
Oh yeah how do you do it, i wanna grind exp till i hit shd 1000
I tried the one shot sniper build with full directives and heroic. But i feel like its still slow
10 levels per hour
ey guys how do I get regular gear bps and named items bps consistently ?
Retaliations
ima gate keep
I have 50 unopened apparel caches. Gimme more 😂
:<
do retaliations
pass them over ill take them off your hands XD
Oh is that what we need?
no
To get the new apparel outfits or
you need to get the new keys to open the event apparel cache
Ah
those are rookie numbers son
gimme all your textile
Man i felt bad for the dude i killed in DZ earlier he had like 100+ dz resources and 2 exotics.
im sitting on 99+ aparel keys
you bad bad man
dummy kept farming without extracting anything
I waited for him at the place i killed him to give him his items back because i felt genuinely bad but he never came back
bro rage quit after that one ngl, valid crash out
u a good boy
The guilt still getting to me because he probably wasted an hour or 2 in DZ only for some AH to get the items
Lol posted a video of my build 😂in build chat to see if anyone has suggestions for improving it and got told no self promotions.... 😂
is each cp guaranteed a bp ? Ik kill squads are 95% on heroic for exotic bps, but what about brand sets with cps ?
Not guaranteed but high
Brand set you get from reconstruction caches
Each cp has high chance of blueprints. Even in free roam control points
do u know if unit alloy is special ?
Not special jn any way
what about named gear ?
Im blessed to get dropped cleaners and rikers tactical assessment blueprints
No need to grind in new york map
Named gear reconstruction caches
and the only way to get them right now is with broken watches ?
Yes or you can play descent
either that or playing descent to get those caches
🤮 descent
Those are your options so deal with it
retal are fun
Retaliations are pretty frequent and you get lotsa watches so it's pretty great
Descent is decent tho 🗣️
Just post a picture, no need for a video
If it wasn't so goddamn stingy maybe
Why do the random boss rooms in loop 2 give 3x the NSA credits that a regular boss room does lol
"u farmed all this gear and u have an amazing build? lol gtfo and play with trash"
Just increase the gains! It's so stingy!
the devs prob
And it has the worst 'gotta spend juice to get your base stats up' mechanic of any roguelite I've played
"i don't understand the concept of a roguelike gamemode" u prob
its not like you HAVE to play it
Mechanically it's 'fine', some of the rooms are extreme garbage for spawns and the fact that there's just straight up BAD rotations for perks is a really miserable way to set a game up
yeah its a whole ass game inside a game
so you can game while you game
yea idk what ppl are on
the problem is that they abandoned it, because people were shitting on it
descent is Div2 version of Survival mode from Div1... we all know which one turned out to be the popular one. But Descent is amazing if you have the time to sink on it
It really wouldn't take much to polish it up either, but nobody plays it so why bother? It's a vicious cycle. Also yeah the time to sink into it is insane lmao why does it take hours?? Why is there no way to save and quit mid run??
idk if i want to compare it to survival, but yea it is amazing
A decent run in an actual roguelite is like an hour or less
huh, that depends on xD
Unless you're doing some insane looping endless stuff, yeah, but a run to 'finish' the average roguelite is pretty short. That's the point of 'em
I wouldn't mind if descent took 2 - 3 hours to get anywhere decent if I could save and quit after a loop
a save & quit option would be a really nice feature, that would make it much more friendlier
but right now i understand why peoples doesn't really wanna start it
A save and quit, up the early NSA credit gain/reduce the costs of the permanent stat boosts and it'd be a pretty solid way to play. I played a bunch during the increased rewards and unlocked a lot of the basic stuff and it was good, it felt nice, I had options and base stats to back 'em up
i don't really remember the stat upgrade costs, been maxed for a really long time
They're 25 tech each, per level, and you get like... 11 for your first loop lmao
oh damn
Extra talent choice is 320!
10 for first loop +1 ever loop after
It's crazy prohibitive
Yeah and if you get a random boss room in loop 2 it's already something silly like 30+ tech
after loop 25 every room is a boss room or rogue agent room anyway lol
Patch Notes Link isnt work 😄
Yeah but that's the problem getting there to get all the juicy rewards, it's all back loaded, there's no carrot all stick lmao
and you getting whopped by that stick lmao
anyway, i do an "endless" descent run when there's an xp event, and after a 30 loop run i get like 100+ levels
Unfortunately Div 2 is an ice cubes game, and Descent does not make your ice cubes efficiently
not an efficient way, but sometimes a refreshing way
Yeah, of course, and if you're good at it and can go hard then it probably IS really efficient. But there's a huge barrier to getting to it, which is the real shame. I want to like the mode
I'm home and ready to farm
right now im taking a break from the game anyway, in the expertise event i went from 12 to 30
Now that's going hard
Patch notes out. You can apparently get Turmoil and Lexington from prototype box and Quickstep from named item cache.
how did the event go for yall?
I went from 3 to 20 😰
tbh i "bought" the last 4 levels lol
First Bloom talent: Deal 3.3% more damage for each 10% of total HP and Armor the enemy has remaining.
Also optimization surge double mats.
Oh sick
finally hit watch lvl 1000 bruh i can actually enjoy the game now
so like double drops?
nice, im already max proficient with that gun XD
Yo I’m level 26 kinda getting back into it anyone wanna hop in w me help me w what I need to know and do?
Hi, is there anyone who can help me get quickstep? I don't have houndsman mission
the new chest will have the quickstep, does that mean the "lf houndsman" spam on central chat will stop finally?
Double materials.
so the kitsunebi sharing health sounds... interesting. i wonder if hotshot hsd builds will just drop them
i mean if u hitting 20 mil plus it should but need wait n see after all
idr what my damage is at but imma guess it was around 30m
fair enough
Event starts tomorrow that will have quickstep in the caches
with the current season hs dmg boost its easily over 30m+
30 does not sound enough to drop 5
yeah it doesn't lol
30 is barely enough to drop 1 outcast heavy gunner
Increased Prototype item drop rates across all Escalation tiers, excluding Tier 1.
How much is it increased?
i can drop an elite outcast lmg on esca tier 2
we shall see 
did stream happen yet? If they didn’t say in stream or patch notes we’ll find out tmr
i think its over
it was a hour ago
#news-and-announcements has the notes
also i wonder how they'll work with negotiators dilemma 
it only lasted like 20 mins lol
As long as it needed to be.
yeah
what about the kill squads? will they appear at the same time with the kitsunebi and ronins or not?
i think the kitsunebi arent tied to retaliation. not 100% sure tho
This will be fun to see
they are not related to retaliations
morestly similar to people in the christmas event
Mhm
without a bounty so no one has to constantly spam they want farm bounty
Bird shot why not buck shot?
old joke since my original pic was of a bird holding a shotgun
say what? sorry am new, what is this chest thingy? im very interested in quickstep lol
YAY REALY? I HAVE THE DAY OFF TOO
look in announcements and read the notes, new event will be fire 🗣
Anyone know if paradox working for chem launcher is intended
i dont know
damn this really is perfect timing im so glad i caught this piece of info
In the patch notes they said gear caches .. which one they mean? Also normal named caches?
The ones from the key vendor.
there's even a chance you get it in prototype
I'm talking unlimited foam
Oh okay . Thx
server is down??!
🤩
nvm
Unlimited oxidizer
- There are more than one server
- No
Cause I just ran through a t10 fireing unlimited sticky bombs and it lagged the game out
2x tier 5 = 0 proto.. 1x tier 3 = 3 proto + 1 exo..
Which Faction i must farm to get Eagle Bearer blueprint?
BT
Check the pins in #td2-build-advice
oh mah gawd i just realised it also means i can possibly get the lexington hell yeah i really came back at a great time
@upper surge You're looking for #lfg-playstation, GL Agent 
Sorry Bird' didn't see your name, you got this? I need a good long sleep.
i'll keep an eye on
Do we know by what amount they increased the drop chances for Escalation tomorrow?
Cuz i didn't see any numbers, just saying they did it
no
Sadge
But i guess we'll find out soon enough
If you read the patch notes you'd notice there's no value. So officially we won't know (yet)
I read them, i just thought i might have missed it😅
Nope you didn't 😄
Lovela haha
Honestly, not a lot of numbers in general in there
Neither for the key chances, nor the loot distribution in the caches itself
I just started playing and saw the Lexington gun was popular. What makes it so special?
Pretty sure it has buffed base damage and good stats in general
Afaik the best AR for what it does
its the police m4 but it does 5% more damage
@mighty girder
Do your magic
Does it have a set talent or is it random? If it is random what is the best talent?
You can put any talent on it
the gun comes with maxed attributes, so you can put any talent on it
I believe most people run killer, but its personal preference
yeah that
Any word on crossplay?
it looks better than police m4 (debatable), comes god rolled, and it is 3.79815633825331699259338200032% better than the police m4 in terms of base damage
This year
No crossplay date tho right? 📅
someone give homework to this nerd
No date
Bruh
Oh? Thank you, for crunching the numbers lol Hopefully I can get my hands on it. I been trying to find a decent AR to replace my St. Elmo's
Carbine 7 is a good one
Is the optimization surge the one that gets you double exo comps?
Sweet
but the 3.79815633825331699259338200032% are an improvement 
so true, if you don't have that 3.79815633825331699259338200032% additional base damage your build is a brick with no redeeming qualities
literally 0 damage on legendary
Lol
insta kick from my leggo group ( /s )
Insta block from any group
i will get your ubi account banned if you don't have lexi and dare to join my group
Na that too harsh better to roll there account back to when they just started
imma take god rolled lexington and deconstruct in ur lobby
All Lexingtons are God rolled, except prototype ones
anyone has new droprates in escalation ?
Tier 1: 0.20%
Tier 2: 0.25%
Tier 3: 0.30%
Tier 4: 0.30%
Tier 5: 0.40%
Tier 6: 0.60%
Tier 7: 0.70%
Tier 8: 1.00%
Tier 9: 1.30%
Tier 10: 1.50%
New that's old
thats the old one.
but thx
No info yet we need to play the update first
I can estimate it could be additional. 05% increase
ya maybe any dev can drop the rate. why is that big information not in the patchnotes. 😅
¯_(ツ)_/¯
yo, is it true that prototpye cores, if u dont use them they just are gone after a time??
Can we get normal lexington from the gear cache or just the prototype one?
no those are escalation tokens which reset each season
ahh aight, thanks, was just scared for a moment haha
oh wow cherry blossom event gear caches have prototype gear
no.. you must wait till stretch goals event,,
dawg its in the event gear cache
Idk if it’s only proto or normal too
Yep. Lex and Turnoil is in the crates
considering it mentions both proto and lexington theres probably a chance to get a proto lex
apparently you can't get proto lexi
1 in a million
What a shame.
screenshot in #ask-td2-community
would be weird tho since you cant reroll talent so youd scrap it anyway if the talent isnt good
True
It says prototyped in patchnote, but that's kinda weird.
also love the new cosmetics
If it doesn't come with a good talent AND a max roll, it's probly not so worth if you can aldready make prototypes or loot them
5 hour maintenance.. jesus
As every patch day.
is it today???
Scorpio build a good idea to lockdown these Ronin?
Tomorrow
Depends on your timezone
i mean the maintenance
I would agree
It's literally wrote in servers status
tomorrow morning for me
yeah i forgor the channel exists lol
It's fewer than 24hr from now, so it must be today for some people in the world
god, literally after my shift ends
i feel that.
Hopefully the update itself isn't big with my slow internet 
I praying for your downfall rn
oh yeah, will we be able to download the update during the downtime or after actually
I hope your internet gets cut off (respectfully)
Guessing there's no GEs until the event ends?
the wording implies no prototype lexington
Gear Cache also contains:
Rare chance to obtain Prototype Gear Set and **Prototype Seasonal Named items.**
**Special** Named Gear
Lexington
Turmoil
Caretaker
Shield Splinterer
Huntsman
Hunter-Killer
Handbasket
**Seasonal Named Gear**
The Harvest
Chill Out
Sleigher
Slingshot
Oh Carol
First Sight
Quickstep
Festive Delivery
Snow Machine
Bell Ringer
General Pool Exotics
Is there a bug channel?
I did
Only unofficial troubleshooting. Report bugs/upvote existing bugs on the Bug Reporter platform
prototype harvest would go insane
Gotcha
Not that special
its a really strong named pistol that most people wouldnt bother to upgrade to proto
getting it as proto by default would be very cool
