Yup takes place in new York and has aliens

[charred talon]

if its not aliens its a super virus

and in the forms of crysis its an alien super virus

[polar thorn]

Saw someone went mad over "I can use anything I want for escalation"

Mf brings blue core strength with ninja backpack and chill out 💀

[charred talon]

a blue core strength.. what

[polar thorn]

Yeah, exactly.

People cant spend 5 minutes reading Harvesters modifiers

[charred talon]

a red core strength gives tons of armour but basically useless in an escelation due to the lack of dps

[unique bramble]

you see that reaper symbol? I challenge you to kill him

Proceeds to struggle in doing it so

[charred talon]

i found that out the hard way when my bullets were basically the equivlent of slapping them

i do use core strength in anything else due to decent dps for most things and the tech tier 3

[polar thorn]

I respect core strength but it's not something I wouldn't recommend for escalation.

[charred talon]

its really not strong enough in damage for that

[polar thorn]

Lost my 20 tokens because of that, I should've left the room 😭

[charred talon]

you'll stay alive.. for all of 5 more seconds

[dire meteor]

F

[polar thorn]

Kan?

[charred talon]

talking of which i need get some striker gear

[dire meteor]

Tmr striker

[vagrant grotto]

Feel like my ts going to shine tomorrow

[polar thorn]

Umbra, Pistol, Aegis, 5.11, China brand

[vagrant grotto]

Well either or honestly

[dire meteor]

What kinda insider info is this

[lethal moon]

If the caches land on LMGs at any point I am rolling those

[charred talon]

core strength is a solid build for most pve things except when the things you are fighting are basically spartans

[polar thorn]

anything below heroic is okay

[charred talon]

yea

[polar thorn]

im developer, but still on intern

[dire meteor]

[random laurel]

Bros uncle works as the head chef. He knows all

[polar thorn]

Bullseye

[delicate plume]

has anyone else had danny the hidden vendor guy have nothing in his supply today? i th ought he was suppose to refresh ?

[broken sage]

How does this prototype shit work?

I found it on workbench but not sure how I make one

[edgy fable]

Tomorrow

Weekly reset is always Tuesdays with the daily reset

[delicate plume]

first time having this issue i thought he refreshed every 24 hours/ when he closes and reopens has restocked inventory (he did not have stock today)

hopefully they can patch the tinker mask tomorrow too so I can throw it in a build don't want to get banned for using it until they make the changes

[edgy fable]

You might confuse sth. Danny's stock refreshes weekly

[bitter wraith]

Does prototype gear effects work in standard heroic open world , countdown etc? So if someone did 8 mil per hit with a rock n roll they would also 8M per individual bullet even in normal heroic?

[pseudo chasm]

how do you get tokens if I can only do 0

[random laurel]

Works in everything except raids and incursions mate

[delicate plume]

it was just information I didn't know/have since its my first time running into it so wasn't sure how it worked so i came here to ask and received my answer

[random laurel]

Echo interacting with shotties needs more testing but paradox does indeed interact with each bullet

[edgy fable]

Pellet

[broken sage]

How do I do these prototype weapon things?

[edgy fable]

How do you mean?

Prototype yourself or farm for them?

[kind veldt]

either drops from doing escalation or upgrading items that are expertise 30

[broken sage]

Both

[kind veldt]

to upgrade you need proto cores from either breaking down proto gear you got or caches from raid and incursion weekly reward

[broken sage]

Just got back into game so have no clue what new stuff is

[umbral dock]

prototypes are the main new thing

new exotics as well, like Overdogs

[broken sage]

Do I have to do raid or incursions for them? I o
Play solo so don’t touch raid

[kind veldt]

escalation is missions with scalling difficulty

[unique bramble]

Tier 0 gives 1 token, with 1 token you get access to tier 1 and so on...

[umbral dock]

nah it’s just a way to get cores
main way is dismantling prototypes

[kind veldt]

raid or incursions if you want the materials to upgrade stuff without doing escalation

[edgy fable]

You should probably read the official Ubisoft announcement about Escalation and prototype items

[umbral dock]

isn’t the raid cache, like, 3 cores

[broken sage]

Where

[kind veldt]

each one drops a cache with 2 cores each i think

[kind veldt]

#news-and-announcements message

[umbral dock]

#news-and-announcements message

[unique bramble]

Double the advice

[broken sage]

Ahhh I need expertise

That’s why I can’t do anything

[plucky venture]

Help wanted, rat queen fight for campaign. sucks solo and im kinda new

https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/game/the-division/the-division-2/news-updates/15OjYSjEhS2rUfiDINkRxD/the-division-2-rise-up

[broken sage]

Do I just use gear to get expertise up? Never bothered with that. Most I’ve upgraded a piece is to like level 3

[vagrant grotto]

That or donate material

[kind veldt]

get proficiency by using gear or donating copies, expertise goes up when you get a lot of proficiency with lots of items

[agile night]

Expertise goes up with proficiency. Proficiency goes up to 10 per item and is raised by wearing the items while you get kills, donating items, and donating materials.

[bitter wraith]

Mowing down entire control points in sub 2 mins sounds insane

[agile night]

I highly recommend looking at a guide or watching a video to level it effectively in various methods and picking your poison. It's a marathon, not a race. SHD XP or expertise XP events are when you want to crack down

[lean breach]

Maybe you gotta lvl paradox ... but yeah its still poopy flavored lollipop

i've tested it on lvl 1 its kinda poopy LOL
about 10 "reloads" it worked maybe 2-3 tiems

[polar thorn]

Don't push yourself without expertise/proficiency event

[vernal void]

Escalation is such stupid mode. Rogue agents especially are too tanky and other bs. (me trying farm for wyerm gear get screwed by all this bad stuff)

rigth now i need carry for escalation just get wyern gear. also they should just make expertise 30 avaiable to everyone instead of no lifing to level that up and make it instant level to 30 instead of what we have.

[umbral oak]

Do I even want to know what tier you're playing on

[vernal void]

it was just tier 3 but even rogue agent make terrible. the dps that came in was not doing a lot of damage =_=.

[umbral oak]

Tier 3 is slightly above baby difficulty

[stray jacinth]

They're tanky regardless just play safer

[vernal void]

i was healer so I had no damage and the dps decide to play really deep so i have follow to him to the grave. we got into a kill box\

[umbral oak]

Rogues like to push so it's alot more sketchy in escalation

[umbral oak]

So what you're saying is you failed because of yalls own fault, not because of escalation being bad

[stray jacinth]

If a dd wants to move far from heals let em reap what they sow

[vernal void]

i had no one to help with that. I was bad and I do not know the quality of the dps. Also, what you think i have to do there as a healer. Let me DIE. then I can't kill anything

normally I could just from safer position but nooo

[umbral oak]

Seems like yall couldn't kill anything regardless

[vernal void]

it was the only help I could get. I could not play dps myself as I am mostly skill build user

[umbral oak]

Not defending escalation but don't blame the game mode for mistakes the player makes

[stray jacinth]

Do the modifiers even apply to the rogue agents? Dumb question probably

[umbral oak]

I saw kelso get lit on fire on a tier 6 if that says anything

But realistically it probably doesn't

[stray jacinth]

Well that's reassuring

[stray jacinth]

So I can temporarily go to eclipse foam 😈

[ornate crystal]

bet she said she still needed to go

[umbral oak]

The status immunity is only for enemies at low hp, so you probably could

[vernal void]

player skills is a variable but the whole game mode shuts down build diversity and if you no one to help you with the game mode you doing solo which a terrible experience or you are relying on other teammates to do dps which a terrible experience for gear that is now "essential". LIKE WHAT AM I SUPPOSE TO DO. WHAT OPTIONS I AHVE

[umbral oak]

The only build that gets shutdown at tier 3 is tanks. And those get shutdown everywhere because of how the game works

[stray jacinth]

While I'm upset about the status immunity I'll respectfully disagree there's plenty of viable stuff to use

[vernal void]

then why everyone is shouting striker/FI or kick then

[umbral oak]

Because they're stupid

[ornate crystal]

work your expertise up, practice ya know that sorta thing. u will get there take ur time

[stray jacinth]

This

[umbral oak]

You see that in most high end content not just escalation, getting kicked for no strikers isn't a new thing

[vernal void]

expertise takes so long to complete that I just wanna quit if i had to do that. There no way to level that fast at all

[stray jacinth]

Me and a buddy have duo measured assembly builds. If the dps knows what we're going for we can turn them into super soldiers

[umbral oak]

And I've run refractors as high as tier 6

[stray jacinth]

Refractor lowkey trivializes hotfoot it's fun

[umbral oak]

I stopped being scared of hotfoot when it was just shock

[vernal void]

i run refactor as well but I keep getting screwed over by stupid random bs by proxies and sniper turrets (mostly them)

camp white oak just pain and I have no one help

[umbral oak]

Because you aren't prioritizing engineers

[vernal void]

i am bitter for sure

[stray jacinth]

UAV enemies are the first to die

[vernal void]

you think don't try to kill them first

[stray jacinth]

I hate droners

[umbral oak]

I read doners and immediately thought based

[stray jacinth]

Lol

Followed by medics

[vernal void]

every time I try to kill them they always end up just living anyways.

[random laurel]

Hey doners aint that bad

[stray jacinth]

Not when they spam 50 suicide drones with a mil skill haste

[random laurel]

I'm a gyro person but doners are good

[ornate crystal]

Point is to experience the game and have fun while playing, the whole wanna be where everyone at expertise wise we were all there at one point or another. You are trying to walk before you are crawling take your time and enjoy the game. You're burning yourself out is why you're wanting to quit.

[unique bramble]

At least we don't have to fight actual UAV like that one at the start of invaded view point museum (the UAV that looks like a plane)

[stray jacinth]

I've ran army terminal too much and still no catalyst 😢

[vernal void]

I just trying to work with i have and every time I fight with escalation. Everyone goes "oh just target this or that" I just am TRYING. Nothing seem to want me to get any escalation gear. and farming expertise is so borning and long that I cannot do this

[umbral oak]

Ur right we need escalation tiered quad copters

[vernal void]

unless you can find a way to level up really fast like one day or few hours

[stray jacinth]

I want Apaches ngl

[umbral oak]

They should make prototype cores expertise materials

[vernal void]

honestly just make the game easier for us people who are in pain.

[unique bramble]

Just like that old bald man fight in the division 1

[stray jacinth]

I wish I still had tokens I love gambling the mystery boxes too much

[random laurel]

They have the Jesus nut

[stray jacinth]

Ah good ol LMB

[umbral oak]

Bliss wishes he had an Apache

[vernal void]

also Warframe >>> Division 2. At least the grind you have like more people who actually can help with it phsyically

[ornate crystal]

🫠 welp i tried to say the thing ... oh well

[random laurel]

Nah fam. Roblox >>> all

[stray jacinth]

I love both personally

[stray jacinth]

I mean early Warframe you need help it's not new player friendly

[unique bramble]

Everybody knows the best gam is for9.

[ornate crystal]

anyway yall dont forget to take naps and eat okay no need to be grumpy and or hangry

[random laurel]

ME Andromeda

[stray jacinth]

Nah the best is Elden ring (bias af) or bloodborne

[vernal void]

i just frustrated with the expertise system as it just too grindy and now ALMOST mandatory compare with warframe. I can't really relax and if I cannot get equipment via escalation unless eveyrone is jump on it. (camp white oak is not popular)

[zenith urchin]

its not mandatory at all? prototypes are only necessary for like t8-10 escalation

[vernal void]

when you can get 1.5 skill tier. You can make so much room for other stuff at that point. opens up a lot of builds with that

[stray jacinth]

All I need is a proto hard wired backpack and I can do it

[ornate crystal]

nice

[zenith urchin]

prototypes also get disabled in most content where you want that extra wiggle room from getting 6 tiers from 4 armor pieces

[vernal void]

isn't that only raids

[zenith urchin]

raids, incursions, anything with pvp

[stray jacinth]

Raids are mostly irrelevant now thanks btsu kill squad 😄

[vernal void]

i literally do not pvp and raid & incursions are rare for me... as there no one willing to do that

[stray jacinth]

Only raid is get into is where ever regulus is

Since there is no retal blueprint for it

[zenith urchin]

and those + escalation are where you might want two red cores for your weapons on a skill build, this really isnt something you need on heroic or even legendary

[green badge]

Anyone know if the Augment Atomize wroks on the seeker mines for damage?

[zenith urchin]

got to exactly shd 1000, neat

[stray jacinth]

Nice

[vernal void]

well, it does allow for some hybridization that would be neat with that i can tinker. But i have no one willing farm skill gear. I am so pissed off that is why i am crashing out so hard. the other way is long and expensive and I just tired.

[zenith urchin]

thats fair

[ornate crystal]

make friends with ppl you play with join clans see where is benefiting you and wont be long there'll be ppl "willing" to things with but you will nvr know if u are not patience, a lot of things in this game takes time esp the experiance learning where the npc's spawns what the best weapons builds etc that takes practice you dont* need anyone to carry you. you need to give yourself time to learn the ropes really.

[stray jacinth]

Core strength hybrids ♥️

[random laurel]

I'm not sure on seekers but I did hear that apparently it does work with the chem launchers since normal weapon talents (some) also work with it so in theory augments should too

[zealous osprey]

guys why if i do matchmake for federal i just go other missions, is annoying

[random laurel]

Tinkerer does not give you double augments if you are wondering.

[unique bramble]

Head hunter chem launcher 💀

[vernal void]

it say that you will be put in the TIER and not the mission for escalation.

[stray jacinth]

HUH 😭

[zealous osprey]

true

[random laurel]

Oh yeah that's funny. Killing ads with that lol

[spring trench]

its in a big red banner across the top when you matchmake... just proves no matter how hard they try to make it obvious people will ignore it

[stray jacinth]

Oh these ideas are 🔥

[unique bramble]

They didn't put red arrows and red circles on the UI, how are we supposed to know?

[spring trench]

they need that one meme of the guys pointing too xD

[vernal void]

Also, I am so bad at being DPS that I have mostly reserve myself to being a tank or skill build user. DPS and all things need for it take a lot of practice to master. With the same equipment, other people do way better than me [yes i have access to the dps red guide so i know what i have to do]. Yet everyone favour equipment for DPS. (ranting)

[unique bramble]

We do @spring trench , thank drib

[zealous osprey]

so if i choose matchmake t5 all the ppl in that group will have tokens for t5 right?

[unique bramble]

In theory yes, if they wanna spend them is another story.

[spring trench]

it shouldnt let someone matchmake if they dont have that tier... that said someone can piggy back off a squad leader into a tier higher than normal

[vernal void]

the matchmaking is garbage anyways. it make you match into mission where the prototype is NOT what you want. You get tokens but the leader is paying SO much for it. this game and this garbage game mode.

[stray jacinth]

Escalation isn't garbage per say

[flat forge]

well the game tells you matchmaking isnt by mission its by tier

[vernal void]

i know that and that is why i hate it.

[spring trench]

yea i was playing and even beating missions i was loosing tokens as host... which sucks MAJORLY with the new vendor...

[ornate crystal]

yeah cause i didnt know i was building up my tokens when i was playing solo up to T4 next thing i know i was put into T8 when i did finally matchmake lol oof wild ride

[flat forge]

if it was by both then it would take you way longer to find a group that you might as well lfg in discord or do it solo

because people only want to farm the good sets/fast enemy dense missions, if somethign you want but isnt useful to majority of people doing escalation content is on TL itll be hard matchmaking for a group anyway

[vernal void]

you don't say... that is one of the reason why I am serious crashing out on this game mode in addition to all the garbage they put with prototype gear. punishing players and every single way

[flat forge]

huh?

[unique bramble]

Ok, why the hell escalation just crashed my PS4 out of nowhere sometimes? I just got home and the first attempt at escalated federal emergency bunker (T2) this happens

[stray jacinth]

Nah I'd crash out

[vernal void]

right now i am seriously raging ball of anger

[flat forge]

why

[unique bramble]

The thing is, it's not even a disconnect, the console literally restarts and says an error has occurred on div2.

[stray jacinth]

Wtf that's weird af

[unique bramble]

My PS4 is tired boss.

[stray jacinth]

Time to get that ps5

[ornate crystal]

well bet the servers packed for sure

[unique bramble]

If it was that easy

[ornate crystal]

wait you said PS4 💀 go get that upgrade rn

[valid lava]

PS4 needs a spa day, aka a good cleaning and probably needs some fresh thermal paste

[ornate crystal]

oof it needs to retire bout rn

[vernal void]

rogue agents. Getting no help during the camp white oak mission. Getting a dps who plays so deep that we get into kill box. Randomize loot that is seriously trash at times. the prototype system requiring you to be level 30 expertise where it take FOREVER to level unless you want to wear underpowered gear around hoping it will become proficient unless you want to be materially bankrupt and be unable to modify anyways weapons or gear anymore. Needing to grind harder than any warframe player ever could

[valid lava]

consoles are literally just purpose-made PCs, you gotta maintain them the same way if you want them to keep rollin'

[unique bramble]

Wait a freaking minute...

Hey, can some PC guy go on Federal emergency bunker and throw a cluster grenade at the first underground enemies area pls.

[flat forge]

any matchmaking related stuff is a risk you take when you decide to matchmake. i do agree that rogues could be toned down a bit. prototype gear is meant for the endgame players that have finished all the grind already and looking for a new challenge, and with target loot in place anyone can just bypass the entire grind and hop straight into prototype gear

[ornate crystal]

yo look into paypal 4in4 thats seriously how i buy my stuff and you save money that way if u plan it after payday ya know

i bought both my Series X and PS5 that way

[lethal moon]

"Hey guys remember those Rogues that have more health then standard yellow bar enemies? What if they also got multiplied?"

[ornate crystal]

prob just healing themselves quick

[unique bramble]

You need to know that affordability of a product also has the other factors such as employment to have an income, living cost, taxes, availability of the product and a lot of other things. It's not just oh go save some money and buy the PC/console on sale.

[vernal void]

in the end i just want a chill way to farm wyerm protogear without bursting a blood vessel. As the people i usualy farm with would like will not farm that (mostly due to time constraints)

[frigid merlin]

How are new players already decked out in full god rolled prototyped gear

The game must have good rng for newer players or something. Literally unusable stuff dropping for me

[ornate crystal]

what i need to know? I live in louisiana where the hurricane is, trust ik lol. btw i was jokingly suggesting it

[brazen elm]

FI support build and get carried

[ornate crystal]

honestly didnt take u the type to take that seriously so i am sorry if that bothered you

[vernal void]

i wish i was carried. that would make things easier kek. Nah I HAVE TO BE THE ONE WITH BROKEN BACK HERE. 💀

Everytime i play healer. I am the one doing the carrying =_=

[lethal moon]

DPS players hit a wall eventually and treat the healer like their savior

[vocal hamlet]

guys getting echo?

[vocal hamlet]

Not the augment server echo

[frigid merlin]

I carry but no drops.

[vocal hamlet]

I got bighorn from bt retaliation, and just a min later echo and now it's not available

[vocal hamlet]

Rip bighorn

[brazen elm]

that's why I said get carried

[frigid merlin]

The Devs said escalation is for veteran players

But it's the other round actually

[unique bramble]

Ok that is weird as f

I just did some troubleshooting,
So apparently, if I start a escalated bunker mission, and throw a firestarter grenade near the blue cubes and hit an underground NPC, the PS4 crashes.

[upbeat canopy]

is the server restarting for everyone else right now?

[unique bramble]

Can somebody repeat that for me? Go to the bunker T0, throw a cluster grenade at the underground NPCs and see if something crashes.

[random laurel]

You found a glitch in the matrix, neo

Or should I say.... Mr Anderson

[candid ember]

Hi, is it still possible to summon the hunters for the 12 masks?
https://holdtoreset.com/the-division-2-all-hunter-locations-and-masks-unlock-guide/

[brazen elm]

Always is

[ornate crystal]

its honestly just a lot ppl using status effect in the server ya know

makes it buggy and all that crap

[dark rose]

Anyone else got delta and now can’t connect again?

[unique bramble]

Doubt it, I noticed it just crashing if I do specifically this.

[candid ember]

ok, that's good to know... Do I have to be there a a special time? It's 23:00 ingame and I'm trying the demon mask. I shotted at the 4 targets in the window but nothing happens... Is there a special trick?

[brazen elm]

It depends on the hunter really, but iirc you might need an mmr for that

[umbral dock]

if you’re a good healer it’s not really getting carried, it’s enabling your playmakers

my last run, the fi guy was clutch healing so well that everyone else could greed for kills

[tender wave]

21:00 - 05:00 is the time slot for any 'has to be done at night' hunters, so 23:00 should be fine. They can occasionally be buggy and difficult to summon

Hunting nine to five, what a way to make a killing...

[ornate crystal]

when it comes to status effect in division 2 if ppl doing too much of the same thing in same server can make it buggy and cause the game to crash this isnt really new

[spring trench]

where on the map is the new classified assignment? i have the pass that gives me both missions and im not seeing it

[tender wave]

There's a new map tab, you should be able to select it from there

[brazen elm]

Me when im a highly trained operative whose job is to kill other highly trained operatives but some guy saluted a statue at night so now i gotta kill him

[spring trench]

im looking there, the new one is something newspaper related right? im not seeing that anywhere

i found it i went back and looked at the tweet a bit closer...

[tender wave]

Capital Globe, yeah, if you open the new menu you've got one button for the original 8 missions and another for the new ones

[random laurel]

The people that brute forced these hunters to spawn when we didnt know how to are literal sherlock Holmes. Like it reminds me of the whole cod zombies Easter eggs and the crazy shit you have to trigger them

[brazen elm]

iirc there's coded instructions placed around the map

[remote lynx]

Hello fellow Agents

[jagged canyon]

Boo

[random laurel]

Hey Albestein. How is your brother, einstein?

[unique bramble]

He is dead

[jagged canyon]

I just had the most random idea of what if the cleaners had a freight train. How dangerous would adding a train to their arsenal be

[remote lynx]

hahah doing great he is in the grave

[random laurel]

Did the project with Oppenheimer go well?

[jagged canyon]

I heard it was a real banger

[remote lynx]

Nah didn't go well too much exposure to gamma radiations

[random laurel]

Bro probably turned into a green monster with purple shorts

[frigid merlin]

Nobody wants to play grand Washington smh

[remote lynx]

i ll go farm Proto tipping scales need a mask

[random laurel]

Ill bless you with good rng my boy. May you get your TS with crit damage

[broken sage]

As someone who ain’t played in a year and a bit.

Missed the battle pass exotics etc.

What some stuff I should start farming?

[random laurel]

#td2-build-advice but get a striker build going my boy. Will help you in all areas of the game. After that go for Tipping scales, OD, HF, sniper builds etc

[fickle moat]

Server kicking you out in the middle of a mission is bs

[random laurel]

I'm a TS enthusiast but if I recommend that, the striker enthusiasts will come after me

whispers to TS you're doing good boah

[nova valve]

T8 Bunker room delta, goodbye my beloved tokens

[cinder nacelle]

Just had a Tipping piece drop with nice rolls in WD and crit and Echo out of the box. It is possible.

[fickle moat]

I ain’t starting this mission again it was supposed to be fixed like 3 days ago

[ornate crystal]

they know they love it lol

[cold cape]

What’s goooooood peeps

[valid lava]

I feel like they're both solid choices, they both pack a punch

[random laurel]

Yo death how is pestilence, war and fury doing?

[mild meteor]

i take it most everyone has given up on escalation...the game seems kinda dead lately with matchmaking and seeing other people in the "public" areas

[valid lava]

There's always ebbs and flows with this game, there's no major events and there's nothing particularly appealing to many atm

[ornate crystal]

nah i just play solo T4-T5 sweet spot for me

[elfin hazel]

I see plenty of people ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[lunar valve]

Does the 2 major expansions come with ultimate edition in steam ?

[elfin hazel]

yes it comes with wony & BFB

[ornate crystal]

way less enemies

[lunar valve]

Ty so much

[midnight epoch]

Not buying ultimate edition is an actual dps loss

[celest maple]

nice little jump

[mild meteor]

that's kinda what i've been doing myself with the crickets in matchmaking. Makes it easier too since I have a proto AR with god rolled health damage on it. Eats up the NPCs rather quickly on that level.

[ornate crystal]

yes it is nice when u know u can do it solo

[median prairie]

Where is the channel to post ideas for Div3?

[edgy fable]

There is none

[broken sage]

Damn these esculation things are brutal

[edgy fable]

T0 is basically heroic, Tier 1 is not much different from that either

[broken sage]

Only tier 2 and I’m getting melted

Did tier 1 solo in 12 mins tho

[ruby edge]

Pardon, What shd lvl should I be for challenging countdown?

[lunar hare]

any

[edgy fable]

Challenging can really be any

[ruby edge]

Gotcha, just curious cause I get kicked every now and again.

[lunar hare]

selfish dudes, some are wandering around here saying that you should get better builds but then proceed to kick you when you're trying to get your builds

they expect new players to be born with all the good stuff when they know that doesn't even happen irl

[edgy fable]

It's kinda rxtarded to kick people from challenging CD when it's one of the best sources to gear up in the first place

[ruby edge]

It be like that lol, as long I’m not severely lacking I’m happy

[lunar hare]

sorry I had to vent that shit out

[lunar hare]

this is so true

[mild meteor]

what are people running as an effective alt to the drone on t3+ with refactor? oxidizer?

[agile night]

drone still works for disruption, next best is oxidizer imo

[mild meteor]

just doesn't last very long with the emp NPCs

[edgy fable]

Ditch that idea and rather focus on a good FI build, then practice playing with it

Having a good healer in your team is priceless. That requires practice, however

Refactor is the wrong way for Escalations

[mild meteor]

I have a fully optimized FI build...just hate trying to switch back and forth between healing and trying to do my share of some damage

[edgy fable]

But you can play with it well? ;p
You buff your team's damage, that's top.

[mild meteor]

but i agree with you, refactor is not the most optimal

[edgy fable]

A healer is totally not required to get kills. If someone does expect that, they misunderstand a lot

[twilit cipher]

so when the event ends in 14 minits how long till xp event gos live?

[plain trail]

have you tried red FI ?

it's not completely optimal so i wouldn't bring it to escalations or anything

but it is a decent way to practice your positioning and with your skills if you're just spamming retals or countdown

[edgy fable]

No event ends in 14 mins

[twilit cipher]

i must of read it wrong then

[edgy fable]

Vanguard Overdrive and Assault will end with today's/tomorrow's reset

[brisk gust]

The event ends in 11h & 10 mins

[edgy fable]

Will be replaced with 5x SXP and Ambush

[brisk gust]

so guys 5x season xp is only for battle pass? And not like SHD level

[edgy fable]

Yup

[brisk gust]

bruh i’m shd lvl 60 i need to hit 1000

[twilit cipher]

on my screen it say 9m now

Th 9m

[edgy fable]

Bruh this is not a race. It takes time

There are occasional SHD XP events up to 1k levels per event, speeds things up a lot

Like at least once a season, sometimes even twice

[twilit cipher]

i zome in an it say hours now lol

[brisk gust]

ofc it does but i ain’t a PvE player i’m not tryna waste 1k hours js to get level 1000 to max stats 😭

[plain trail]

if you're looking for a pvp experience

[brisk gust]

I see people with level 70k till 130k

[plain trail]

why not player other games that are better supported and more modern

like arc or tarkov

[brisk gust]

cause i’ve been on the division for like 8+ yrs😭

[twilit cipher]

i will never get to 1k game dont have enough to stay fun its same thing over an over an over its good but to much the same

[brisk gust]

fr like thats so boring like u can’t even go pvp with a low shd level you’ll just get melted

[twilit cipher]

i dont pvp in any game to meny cheats

[brisk gust]

Can’t even hop back on td1 its just full of lagswitchers

[brisk gust]

well pvp is always better than pve even if there are cheaters u gotta live with it yall exploit game bugs in pve😭

[twilit cipher]

not me i dont like cheating

and pve u only hurt yourself if u cheat

[plain trail]

if you're been playing for 8 years you're still only watch lv60?

[brisk gust]

pve doesnt hurt urself that just hurts YOU 😭 if ur actually good at pvp u wouldnt be bothered playing against cheaters lol u could beat them if ur just better

[twilit cipher]

im lvl 280+ with 260 hours

[brisk gust]

division 2 hasnt been out for 8 yrs bro i’m talking abt td1 and i played the division 2 at the start then quit game was boring

[twilit cipher]

now ive done all the story its geting that way

[grim charm]

to be fair we are currently in division 2 year 8

[brisk gust]

well i just got 12 levels from doing this classified mission like 6 times on heroic with all directives takes like 3 mins

[plain trail]

well if you're looking for a pvp experience, i'll tell you right now that division2 is mostly player for the pve experience

[twilit cipher]

see boring

[plain trail]

you would most likely get a better pvp experience from tarkov or arc or whatever

[brisk gust]

well thats what u do whenever ur that bored lol

[twilit cipher]

nvm there will be another game out soon im sure

[brisk gust]

Looks to boring😂 r6 is way better

[celest maple]

🫩

[dapper belfry]

Alr I’m so confused my friend told me to first get the blueprint in dz so I can get pestilence or do I not have to get blueprint I can just farm countdown down for pestilence

[celest maple]

do retaliation

[dapper belfry]

Retail and countdown ?

[plain trail]

countdown is rng you might never get it

[celest maple]

outcast retaliation drops the blueprint but isn’t always 100%

[plain trail]

retal is guaranteed after a few

[dapper belfry]

K

[celest maple]

you’ll have to run it a few times, best to get it 300% and run it 3 times straight

[ornate crystal]

i think its Outcast faction for the iron lung exotic blueprint

[dapper belfry]

Heroic or challenging

[celest maple]

heroic higher chance

[celest maple]

no it’s cleaners

[ornate crystal]

ah right right

[pine heath]

(Credit u/oddintroductions5103) What is the point of Expertise30 if I can just grind toward T10 escalation? Is all of that work now worthless? Do prototypes reduce the past efforts of vets?

[celest maple]

expertise 30 you can reroll and make them max i think but getting proto off escal isn’t always gonna be good rolls or good talent someone wants

[agile night]

for example, i can make a Tipping Scales status buid now, out of 20ish pieces, only 1 one with crit chance so far

[ornate crystal]

apparently you can have a random chance to get the blueprint by defeating "Kill Squads" during open-world activities, regardless of the active faction bc i nvr did the cleaners and i have it so thats why i assume i picked it with outcast

[ornate crystal]

not for retaliation i havent i mean

[edgy fable]

#lfg-playstation

[dapper belfry]

Let me guess I need group cause I suck do retail lol try do solo but I f it up xd

[celest maple]

mhm maybe i opened a NY cache and got it from there so i wouldn’t ngl😭

[celest maple]

if you got a good enough build to handle heroic, solo is easy

[dapper belfry]

I ran out of amo quick

On my lmg I’m using tipping scales and equalizer and overdog

[ornate crystal]

prob there's just more than one ways now to get stuff so thats som at least

[celest maple]

i run striker and AR, with a chest piece that gives me more crit chance + harrier pride

[dapper belfry]

Ah striker as usual

[celest maple]

yea that’s true, i only been grinding BT retaliation for the raid weapons

[celest maple]

all i see are striker, heartbreak and tipping scales 😭

[dapper belfry]

Not saying striker terrible but been using that shi for months

[dapper belfry]

😭

[celest maple]

i’ll prob run a different build once the caduceus drops and see what i can work with but strikers haven’t let me down🙏

[dapper belfry]

Same striker let me hit 1m dmg when I’m not even 1 thousand shd lvl

[candid radish]

Black Tusk is the most annoying ass enemy faction I swear!! Whenever I get them as a kill squad in retaliation it’s over. Their stupid ass robo dogs and other mechs. The worst ass enemy faction in the game. 🤬

[dapper belfry]

I accidentally delete one of my striker armor so got to grind it back 😭

[celest maple]

you either shoot the war hounds legs right away or kill the mfs with the grenade launchers. 2 of the most annoying enemies

[dapper belfry]

I have to fight them in my retal help 😭

[candid radish]

They’re annoying man. Horrible ass faction!

[cursive sphinx]

Another 25 prototype cores down the drain 💔.

[ornate crystal]

yeah same im farming diamond transceivers to craft the Ravenous

[cursive sphinx]

Fahhhh

[candid radish]

Who TF gave BT all that tech?!!!

[celest maple]

i got so many diamond transceivers 😭i need to find the ravenous tho, i got big horn and eagle bearer last week

[celest maple]

natalie

[candid radish]

Whoever it was I hope they die a slow and painful death

[random laurel]

Spoilers: capitalism

insert Vince McMahon smelling money meme

[candid radish]

Idk who that is.

[dapper belfry]

Lucky u want eagle bearer badly

[random laurel]

Guy from wwe. He smells money cuz he's rich

[celest maple]

she pretty much owns black tusk and at the top top

[ornate crystal]

i got those two just sitting in stash they ok

[candid radish]

I’ve only done Warlords of New York and not much of the manhunts.

Well screw that wench then. 🤣

[celest maple]

eagle bearer talent is really meh not op as i used to see but idk about big horn haven’t used it yet

[celest maple]

yea it’s all lore related, part of the manhunt and stuff

[candid radish]

Once I can get this freaking memento backpack I’ll do some more lore related content.

But it doesn’t wanna drop!!

[celest maple]

i get so many memento it’s insane,

[random laurel]

Ill bless you withgood luck from the rng gods my boy. May you get a memento later

[ornate crystal]

doesnt the diamond transceivers only drop from black tusk im surprise u didnt get the blueprint yet this game is weird like that

[candid radish]

😩😩

[celest maple]

i normally get them easily from kill squad or the BTSU and completing it as well. i played challenging at first for awhile so i was farming them instead of them dropping eagle bearer

i got around 400 which isn’t alot

[sullen viper]

did they finally fix all of the issues with prototype gear?

[kind veldt]

define all issues

[sullen viper]

ohh man

actually since the prototype update the player numbers have declined it was such a bad addition

[celest maple]

it’s a good idea but heavily flawed and poor execution

[sullen viper]

its not good, veteran players can get upgrades that make them even stronger even further trivializing endgame content, even tho that part of the community would like harder content, thats not just, number go up like we have in escalation

and for new players its pointless to engage with prototype gear

so its just bad and there are no positives

and the players numbers are bolstering my claim

[celest maple]

wym harder content

[kind veldt]

...you mean players numbers you dont have?

[midnight epoch]

What brought people to the game is the $10 sale on Steam.

They just played for a month or two and then moved on to the next thing.

[kind veldt]

and please dont tell me you are using steam

[sullen viper]

ohh i mean steamdb you can access via any browser

[celest maple]

steam is very unreliable when a lot use ubisoft connect

[kind veldt]

by that logic game had 0 players until it was released on steam

[zenith urchin]

this is a multiplatform game that was exclusive to ubisoft connect at pc launch

[kind veldt]

if the game was only sold on steam, sure, but it isnt

[celest maple]

not sure why ppl think steam numbers is the whole game playerbase

[zenith urchin]

for a lot of games it is
so its a fair, if misguided, assumption it would reflect the playerbase

whats confusing is people who come here making the same claim doubling down every time just admit youre wrong man

[celest maple]

that’s true, i would assume most ppl know about ubisoft connect

[feral knoll]

Player numbers are up on last year and the rest of your argument seems to be that challenging end game content isn't wanted for some reason (it was/ is) and something new players shouldn't aspire to - which is illogical - because that's their future.

If you don't like it personally, then say that don't be dragging the entire player base in, based on assumption, to somehow support your claim.

[celest maple]

cook

[feral knoll]

Heck, this discord is more alive than I've seen it in years. It'd be dead if even half the argument eas true

[uncut haven]

server down?

[celest maple]

no

[maiden lagoon]

anyone willing to help me beat space administration hq on master difficulty please?

[feral knoll]

Might be some takers in #lfg-pc

[maiden lagoon]

i tried there first lol

[feral knoll]

Hah, ok.

[maiden lagoon]

its the only way to get the provocator exotic right?

[feral knoll]

Unless it's in the retal loot tables

[maiden lagoon]

damn ok, i feel to squishy with my current build i want something stronger lol

[edgy fable]

That chest piece won't help you much. You should practice using cover

[maiden lagoon]

i do use cover but i still get melted way to fast

[edgy fable]

Practice your timing and invest more into damage

Dead enemies can't harm you

[maiden lagoon]

i figured 13m damage was good enough lol

[edgy fable]

13m is no metric tho

You'll find this spreadsheet over in #td2-build-advice . It contains this guide I recommend you to read

[maiden lagoon]

im 4 striker with obliterate chest and overdog gloves and st elmo all maex out no proto

[edgy fable]

That's a good start

Proto is irrelevant outside of Escalations

[celest maple]

if you want use memento over overdogs but all down to what you like

[maiden lagoon]

im 57 crit chance and 135 crit damage

[edgy fable]

Also solid. All you gotta do now is practice

[celest maple]

damn that’s what i have as well, how’s ur headshot damage ?

[maiden lagoon]

trash 55%

[edgy fable]

Read the guide I mentioned above for useful info on this

HSD doesn't matter in a crit build

[celest maple]

yea i know but i like it lol, prob should change the season mod thing they be having

[edgy fable]

When I hit a lobby that uses the seasonal modifiers I use the HSD too, but that is rather an exception because modifiers change each season

Nice bonus damage of course

[maiden lagoon]

i guess this isnt a build for me then lol ill keep looking thanks

[celest maple]

i only use the HSD modifiers, wouldn’t actually use it on my build

i use a ceska chest piece and harrier pride, the rest are striker. could use the equalizer but isn’t my style

[umbral dock]

headshot is nice but handling is really nice

even the wackiest gun becomes a laser

[teal gulch]

i’m a level 11 and just wondering what else i should be doing to get good guns and stuff or do i worry about that in endgame

[celest maple]

just worry about that once you reach lvl 40

[teal gulch]

i know sometimes when i play with level 40 i seem to level up way faster and sometimes they drop me good endgame loot

[edgy fable]

Just play through the campaign, make sure to finish all main and side missions. Once you reach lvl 40, read this guide to get some more insight

[teal gulch]

oh god this looks so confusing lmao

[celest maple]

that’s the fun part

[celest maple]

you can’t equip them tho until
you reach that lvl

[gritty pollen]

is there anybody on pc that could help me get a quickstep pistol??

[tranquil shard]

The Brooklyn event starts tomorrow correct ?

Or am I off a week or so

Also did they take away all the old classified assignments? I used to use them as fast travel points and noticed they were gone

[iron adder]

Zoom out

[celest maple]

the 22nd

[tranquil shard]

Sweet thanks

[tranquil shard]

Aight I’ll try that I was so confused last night when trying to fast travel

[iron adder]

Yes, it's so dumb that they did that

[tranquil shard]

I’m sure they have a reason but I dunno what it would be haha I usually use it to get down there by the demolition site

[iron adder]

The change is that there's a new classified mission tab as there are more classified missions now. Btw you can unlock the new ones as fast travel points even if you haven't bought them

[tranquil shard]

Oh sweet .. I didn’t buy them and wasn’t gonna but someone here told me they are fun so I might

[grave wadi]

I would say, from my recent research and recollection of how the game was before I left for a while, that Tank builds are okay to use in anything outside of Escalation/Raid.

Incursions are a hard maybe

Legendary is do-able, but you have to be extremely hyper-specific and optimized to do leggos with a Tank build. More on this below.

There is a way to do Manning Leggo with Foundry, as seen here https://youtu.be/vaFyQBSc3hI

I have not tried this myself, but I plan to later, to verify legitimacy.

HOWEVER: You will not kill as fast as you would with all red.

I would 100% not use the above in a raid or escalation, though.

[flat forge]

def not in incursion either

[grave wadi]

Yeah, havent done an incursion in a very hot spicy min, but i was erring on the low side of Maybe, borderline "Hell no"

[kind veldt]

Its just an ehhhh... Okay at best in incursion

People tried using first few weeks and could

It was just not optimal

[pine heath]

My current build is rolled correctly and max optimized, but not prototype yet. Are you saying I can further optimize it after prototyping to max the attributes higher? I appreciate the insight, trying to learn. 🙂

[unique bramble]

[random laurel]

Just got a festive surprise from the proto caches

Looks like the festive items are in that loot pool. Confirmed by yours truly

Don't need to credit me boys. I'm just doing this for the community

[unique bramble]

Viewpoint is a ambusher but it's just an error they never fixed, because originally it was Wade and a regular true son, not an ambusher.

[topaz cliff]

In retaliations which faction gives me the saint elmer's engine blueprint?

[hybrid ore]

@topaz cliff If you go to your Crafting Table and scroll down to "Exotic", you can see which faction drops which.

[topaz cliff]

Thanks for the information

[visual gazelle]

good evening guys does anyone know why grupo isnt dropping at pathway park escalation? ive done 9 runs and 0 grupo drops

[hybrid ore]

The drop chance for proto in an Escalation is based off 2 things:

1. What tier you're playing.
2. basically a random chance since it's only a small % anyway.

[polar thorn]

T5 is best one, got myself every proto TS with echo

[hybrid ore]

Tier 5 is considered a happy medium for sure yeah.
Not too many tricky Modifiers, and a decent team can work through it without too much trouble.

[carmine sky]

Ima miss Assault. Being able to run Chatter's fury in group play has been a blast.

[edgy fable]

#lfg-raid-pc

[feral knoll]

Select the map toggle to show the loot rotation; the points show up there and you can fast travel; can also fast travel using the new assignments screen.

Another 25 prototype cores trying to get echo 💔

Fahhhhhh

I got my entire TS echo'd minus the bp. Almost there bros

Shit broski

[polar thorn]

after hundreds of bounties, I finally got myself red core hollow man

[cursive sphinx]

“Just one more reroll”

[random laurel]

I got half of my hardwired proto. The augments suck tho lol

[grave wadi]

do I have to do the Brooklyn DLC to get measured talent on an AR or something? Been trying to get it to drop ONE ar with it, for 2 days now, in CD, and had not ONE drop.

[random laurel]

I dont even know what I want for augments for hardwired

[polar thorn]

aint like you can recalibrate for one?

[stray mason]

how does which tier escalation compare to heroic - leggo difficulty? can i solo the lower tier farms as a pure striker/overdogs build

[grave wadi]

no, dont have it in library

[polar thorn]

yikes, you have to keep repeating countdown for the talent, then use it for library

[polar thorn]

Honestly, you can only solo till tier 3 if you understand and memorize their spawns

[random laurel]

Its game over when they start surrounding you

[kind veldt]

#lfg-raid-pc

[sudden meadow]

I've solod up to T5, but it's painful and not fun. 4 you run a higher risk that is not worth the increase in targeted loot drop (proto rate is the same as T3)

[dapper belfry]

Can I farm ninja spike backpack in countdown

[kind veldt]

yeah

[dapper belfry]

K

[stray mason]

are all blueprints in the pool for control points or do i have to go to NY for the certian ones?

[kind veldt]

you can get all in DC from control points

wtf does anyone have anyways to do this faster I been donating an wearing gear pieces etc idk what else to do

[plain trail]

Gonna burn yourself out

Wait for them to make expertise easier

[gilded frost]

How long does it actually take to reach 30 tho ?

[plucky pumice]

buy the weekly named from venders only use your main gun swop in secondary and pistol to ones you havent got yet

[gilded frost]

I’d love to know the dude who hit 30 expertise in 2 weeks I must be doin something wrong Jesus

[pliant sentinel]

i did that

its pretty easy

[gilded frost]

I’ll pay u $30 to take me the rest of the way

do you have 5000 shd points to spare

[wheat gull]

i could, in theory

did you have to grind 5000 shd levels to do it?

how else are you gonna have 5000 shd points

[pliant sentinel]

eat all ur shd points

turn it into stew

Question: Does anyone know of a decent source/guide to understanding the workings of Divison 2?

(Note: I ask this cause I see alot of divison on one subject, the people who play and don't understand or know what they're doing and those who do know what they're doing. I wish to be one of those people in the know as they say so any content pertaining to a better understanding of the games mechanics would be great! Thank you.)

[kind veldt]

#discord-news message

well they have added multiple guides and extra stuff to #1501477829433622528

da sheet in #td2-build-advice pins is my bible

[pliant sentinel]

Strikers 5:2 : Thou shall dps

[edgy fable]

This is a mega thing to ask for, I don't think it's easy to compress a giant amount of knowledge into one guide. There are plenty guides but you should know what you want to dive into first

[polar thorn]

My tipping scale for escalation is complete, now It's striker turn

[pliant sentinel]

only left w bag for me

So, ask questions and learn more about builds I want to use so that I maybe of better use for my teammates.

Now i'm just sitting at expertise 24 1/2 and I can prototype my Hollow Man and MK46

how much exo comps u got

[polar thorn]

not alot but enough to prototype these two

both of them are sitting at expertise 24

and yeah, even tho my ratio isn't looking good which is 58/129 but hell, I will top the damage no matter what.

[edgy fable]

No, that would have been announced

[drowsy tendon]

pings are a bit inconsistent tho yeah

[edgy fable]

Only the tweets I think

[elfin hazel]

basically under the announcements tab would have a post in it if there was

and this chat would generally be more lively since it would be in 10ish minutes normally

[verbal gale]

So if we got to 100 on the season pass we’re just kicking it during the 5x season pass event ?

[elfin hazel]

yea

[edgy fable]

Ambush event will be live so you can go chase that

[hybrid ore]

@brazen elm Feel free to ping a mod if you see something like that in the future, hard to filter out just basic words like that.

[brazen elm]

the hard part is picking which one to ping

[elfin hazel]

if my status is green I will usually respond within under a minute or two (including if I am playing games I will check here pretty quickly)

[zenith urchin]

chainkiller gamble isnt worth it imo

[inland widget]

laaaaaaaaaaaaame

[hybrid ore]

Honestly an excellent day.

[edgy fable]

Thee decent choices for DPS builds today, basically

[inland widget]

Guess I'm just farming tokens and cores tonight haha

[elfin hazel]

time to restart my game for shop stuff

[celest sluice]

Wait overdogs is in rotation now?

[hybrid ore]

I will say: people have never farmed Roosevelt less than today.

[elfin hazel]

they can't drop as prototype since they're exotic

[lunar hare]

what?

[celest sluice]

Nvm

[inland widget]

OD ongoing directive I believe they mean

[feral knoll]

district union arena? so many sources for proto. oh my.

[granite fjord]

Can you still get strikers with targeted loot in the open world? Been looking for it for 3 days but doesnt appear anywhere

[pliant sentinel]

kofe hop on

[lunar hare]

yes, it gets added randomly

[hybrid ore]

@granite fjord You can pick your own TL in Countdown/Summit/Retaliation.

[granite fjord]

Just reached lvl40 shd lvl20 i dont think i could do countdown or summit

[celest sluice]

You can

[feral knoll]

bro i've just been on for tipping scale, need food.

[brazen elm]

challenging countdown isn't too hard with 8 players around

[tropic sentinel]

Queue challenging countdown with randoms.

[hybrid ore]

Yeah just matchmake for Chall' Countdown.

[granite fjord]

Gonna try that then

[edgy fable]

OD - Ongoing Directive lol

[brazen elm]

and no one really minds if you have a bad build it's where everyone goes to get builds

[celest sluice]

Oof i am dumb

[pliant sentinel]

i'll getchu stew

[edgy fable]

Nah you're good. Many terms and abbreviations

[remote lynx]

Here we meet again for the Escalashment rotashun

[pliant sentinel]

shit, the silent reaper is good

[granite fjord]

Well using hunters fury and the rest is orange gear, with unbreakable vest

[hearty patio]

anyone got the map that shows where all the rogue agents can spawn around DC could've sworn i had one but i can't find it

[polar thorn]

5.11 really show up? 💀

[edgy fable]

Nope

[polar thorn]

wut

[hearty patio]

5.11 in here is a gimmick just like wildlands

[remote lynx]

CACHES ARE KNEEPADS & RIFLES

• The Pentagon
  • Negotiator's Dilemma
• DARPA Research Labs
  • Cavalier
• District Union Arena
  • Ongoing Directive
• Roosevelt Island
  • 5.11 Tactical
• Space Administration HQ
  • Walker, Harris & Co.

Time to farm OD

[polar thorn]

If anyone touches Roosevelt Island for today, they will suffer.

[remote lynx]

District Union Arena...

[edgy fable]

Omg there is really 5.11 in rotation @polar thorn

[random laurel]

5.11 is back beebay!

[feral knoll]

Arena will be District Unioned like it's never been District Unioned before.

[polar thorn]

idk if this is sarcasm

[edgy fable]

I'm just tired...

[polar thorn]

long day at work?

[edgy fable]

That too, ya

[hearty patio]

we used to clown on folks who wore 5.11 back in the service

[random laurel]

5.11 gang rise up

[remote lynx]

I'm also at work idk if I ll have enough time to farm OD. When I get back home.

[edgy fable]

FYI: Do not use the Global Event in Escalations T6+ 😬

[stuck hamlet]

Hey guys do I need to do the 3 missions for weekly stronghold to be able to do it as escalation?

[edgy fable]

No, change mission mode

[hearty patio]

bad?

[edgy fable]

Then escalate

[edgy fable]

Read the event description and then think of Hot Foot

😂

[hearty patio]

rip

[random laurel]

How does the ui even work with hot foot and the ge on

[frigid merlin]

Never seen eclipse protocol on TL

[hearty patio]

simple we suffer and die

[edgy fable]

Move - but don't 🪦

[random laurel]

You could say... that's a paradox

[opaque lion]

atleast the servers won't suffer an aneurysm on the 1st weekly rotation

[hearty patio]

have a spurg moment and confuse the enemy

[random laurel]

Get it cuz one of the augments is called paradox

[edgy fable]

Yes I get it. I'm just waiting on Rivens to jump in on that

[polar thorn]

Good reminder, imma just run T5

[random laurel]

You could say thats a real negotiators dilemma

[polar thorn]

wait does the ambush works like Big Alejandro?

[edgy fable]

Yup

[random laurel]

Ya mon

[polar thorn]

Oh...THIS GONNA BE FUN.

[random laurel]

Ya mon go kill some baddies

[polar thorn]

like Kelso or

[random laurel]

My character has a haiwaiian shirt, big Kelso fan here

[stuck hamlet]

Isn't being unable to matchmake an escalation mission kinda counter productive from a design point?

[tropic sentinel]

Yes.

[brazen elm]

Being able to matchmake for tier AND mission would separate the pool of agents in MM

[stuck hamlet]

You would think if they were going to pick either mission or tier, you'd pick mission, since you're looking for a specific set 🤔

[tropic sentinel]

Still better than it is now.

[brazen elm]

Yeah, but then you'd lump the t3s and the t10s together

[stuck hamlet]

t10s shouldn't be in matchmaking xd

[tropic sentinel]

Also options could be optional. So that you can select only 1 or both.

[opaque lion]

if you're matchmaking t10s you're asking to get your tokens wasted

go LFG

[brazen elm]

I doubt people matchmaking t10 do it to host

[stuck hamlet]

yeah LFG is full of people who are higher than me 😄 i'm just a baby

[opaque lion]

that actually happened to me last week

[stuck hamlet]

wanna just dip my feet in somewhere low 😄

[opaque lion]

that guy just started T10 for no reason, got wiped on the 2nd sequence and blamed us 3 lol

[feral knoll]

To be honest tier 5 is pretty cosy and decent chances for proto drops.

[stuck hamlet]

what tier is that electric thing added because lowkey i hate it D:

[opaque lion]

6

[feral knoll]

Hot foot? 6.

[stuck hamlet]

I don't get how i'm meant to use cover to not die but also be punished for using cover xd

[fluid meadow]

use technician and drop your hive at your feet

[inland ice]

what is the most efficient way to farm proto core ? (meant in term of quantity)

[opaque lion]

i think this is them backpedalling because we kinda had something similar to hotfoot during the 1st seasonal modifiers that they nerfed

[feral knoll]

Efficient and quantity are two different concepts.

[fluid meadow]

T10 and fast clears

[inland ice]

Is there a drop chance table for each tier ?

[fluid meadow]

now this will vary depending on how fast you can complete a T5 vs a T10

[livid jetty]

For more quantity start at T8, fast run for T5 but less quantity

[feral knoll]

Note that that data on Reddit is likely sourced from data mining which is a no go for discussion here.

[inland ice]

I see thank you

[west lantern]

Hiding the drop rate is kinda shxt move imo

[opaque lion]

it's not really a secret, the higher the tier the better drop rate you get

[brazen elm]

but how better is the question

[feral knoll]

It's very rare for any game developer to post exact metrics on such things.

[polar thorn]

Houndsman is back?!

[feral knoll]

Why would you say that?

[west lantern]

yeah because they want to adjust the chance if they feel we are getting too much things

[feral knoll]

Or not enough, which was the case, and they upped the rates.

Door swings both ways.

[zenith urchin]

so, DUA escalation
do we need to unlock the invaded stronghold

[stuck hamlet]

No

[polar thorn]

I've saved my credits just for that...I will get it.

[random laurel]

Another week without the dino suit lads

[high vessel]

Just when I thought I could go one week without blowing all my money on cosmetics, the houndsman outfit returns 🪦

[random laurel]

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined

[short mesa]

Im returning after a few years... How long does it take for server reset or are they down for maintance?

[high vessel]

The servers are up right now?

[short mesa]

they are... .it wont let me connect. In game said server reset then it kicked me

[grave timber]

6d and 23h left for manhunt finale

[vocal hamlet]

Not gonna open game today I guess

[wispy pewter]

Is the x5 xp active?

[tender wave]

Season xp only, not shd xp, and yes it should be

[vapid wagon]

thanks babe (doesnt play)

[tender wave]

Damn no love for nego or OD in here

[candid swallow]

Will there be any maintanance today?

[elfin hazel]

no

[dusty walrus]

What is the best way to get maximum benefits when 5x xp active

[elfin hazel]

priority objectives

mainly strongholds

[brazen elm]

nego is on pentagon

[feral knoll]

lies, OD is decent

[hushed pine]

Depends how well you use OD if you use it right you can make it even more powerfull 🙂

[tender wave]

I was just commenting on the previous posts saying escal is not worth running today. I'm a personal fan of both sets

[zenith urchin]

roosevelt 5.11 is diabolical

[random laurel]

OD is top. But im biased as a OD main. (Don't come after me striker enthusiasts)

[random laurel]

Billy butcher moment

[feral knoll]

Am an OD and TS enthusiast, so.

[lost sage]

No maintenance very good

See u next week

[unkempt silo]

overload of sorts, or something along those lines, not the only game to have this issue, if you play a live service game or a big game in general, you're gonna have this happen at least once.

[brisk gust]

[solar ivy]

wtf is happening right know

[gentle cipher]

[timid star]
