The only way to upgrade your expertise level is by donating duplicates. One level up by donating 200 duplicates. This is a hell of grinding if someone try to upgrade his main weapon and 6 pieces of gears to expertise level 20. I wondon if anyone could achieve this goal before the life time of the game.

[umbral juniper]

Ummmm no expertise comes from materials. Proficiency comes from duplicates and kill xp

[dull blaze]

Ppl already max expertise after 48h☠️

[dapper atlas]

There is no channel to report bugs in here because this is a community server for the community to hang out. Bug reports belong in the forums.

[dull blaze]

Sheesh just reading about the conflict thing, yikes

Good shit i never pvp anyways😂

[low lily]

It's actually sad how people will lose those stuff daily now, because they haven't put anything in game, what actually says not to play it....

Because let's be honest majority people don't use discord or Twitter, specially people who are more pvp sided

Ohh wait they disabled conflict, i will take my words back, well done massive

[pulsar belfry]

anyone from asia having connectivity issues? been trying to login to ubi connect but its stuck on loading for about an hour and when i finally do, UNIFORM-01 error greets me. i cant find any tweet or source regarding game going down in this region?

[steel token]

I’ve disconnected 5 times today and only once over the last 3 weeks this update is fire

[real locust]

division players when game has bugs 1 day after update is out 🤬

[prisma dove]

it would've been good if it was only 1

[dull blaze]

Bruh they fixed floor 10 or something? Can’t get the right room to spawn

[prisma dove]

nop

rng

[dull blaze]

25 times the same room

[azure lintel]

I wish lmao, been playing disconnect roulette for an hour now

[dull blaze]

Ye so my room doesnt change anymore rip

[hybrid ore]

@true atlas You're looking for #lfg-pc

[true atlas]

ty sorry

[boreal beacon]

soloed countdown ama

[azure lintel]

Why can't i change my Heartbreaker vest style?
neither color..

[random kraken]

Should I start playing warlords after I hit level 30 or after I hit a certain gearscore?

[frigid pivot]

30

[random kraken]

So right after I hit level 30

[boreal beacon]

go to ny asap after 30

[random kraken]

Alright thank you

So don't do the black tusk missions

[boreal beacon]

u can replay the other stuff once u come back from ny

nah waste of time u can replay em later

[random kraken]

Yeah my first character is at gear Score 506

[boreal beacon]

learn from my mistake got to world tier 5 went to ny and it didn’t count for crap

gearscore wont matter

it’s gonna be your SHD lvl once youre 40

[random kraken]

I see

[boreal beacon]

yuppp

[random kraken]

So there's no point in farming gear past 30 unless I'm in NYC

[boreal beacon]

yeah dude

[random kraken]

Alright got it

[boreal beacon]

it’s all about SHD level once you’re 40

go to ny right now youre gearscore will disappear

[random kraken]

Appreciate it, just Wanna know the basics since I'm practically going in blind

[boreal beacon]

and youll never see gearscore again

it’s all about optimizing lvl 40 gear and SHD level from a watch you get once you finish ny

[tender wave]

If you go to NY before WT5 it'll count as a boost and auto complete any side missions etc that you haven't done

[random kraken]

2 watches huh

I c e

[tender wave]

You'll also miss some of the proper story order

[azure lintel]

I cannot use lau's second decription key, Kelso is not even there either, is this a bug?

[tender wave]

Check the second to last response in #ask-td2-community

[azure lintel]

thank you

[wanton elk]

Is a nemesis blueprint in any one of em?

[tender wave]

You can only get the blueprint from invaded grand Washington hotel, but the invaded zoo will give you a random other part of you don't already have them all

[haughty shore]

Hey guys, is it better to try farm system corruption in DZ or conflict?

when conflict is fixed 😄

[dull blaze]

Is it possible to use the ingame chat feature on ps5? Can’t figure out how to type

[steady dagger]

So like, Nice Manhunt so far ngl.

[plucky coral]

looking for people in the russian clan on ps 4 write to pm

[fiery temple]

there a fix for the fay lau key winding up spent and still haveing not advanced the mission?

[glass raft]

So I'm trying to understand how people r doing 3m+ damage with heartbreaker, I respected to all red and I can't get over 40% crit chance and 80% crit damage yet people r rocking 60% and 130% how the fuck?

The numbers don't even seem posible

And then because I don't have armor I get one tapped yet they r face taking on heroic

So they must be cheating with team buffs and not showing it

[drifting vine]

What happened to the magazine on the gr9? looks like something out of star wars but where does it hide those 100+ bullets lol

[glass raft]

It's a belt box

[fervent berry]

That HB bonus damage comes from the stacks generated

[glass raft]

But it doesnt

[fervent berry]

Which is why HB is currently meta balanced

[oblique chasm]

Mods/watch will probably help you reach 60

[drifting vine]

yeah yeah but y'know spider, shoudlæ still be there osmewhere, right :P?

[glass raft]

So it's the watch?

Cause with full red I can only do 600k with full stacks

[fervent berry]

Probably a 6R HB build too?

I've yet to see one in person tbh. Everyone's running 4B 2R in matchmaking 😂

[glass raft]

Because red gets u 1 shot

That's y I'm asking how the tubers survive as u have no armor, no delete protection or anything

[fiery temple]

6 red hits like a truck ... gets hit like a yugo

[glass raft]

I don't get it

Yet they r literly face tanking

As if they r cheating

[fiery temple]

1:bonus armor from stacks (100 stacks with bp)

[glass raft]

The bonus armor scales with ur armor

So it's useless

If ur all red

People get rid of the backpack for that reason

That's y I'm asking about the tanking as u literly cant

Max stacks still get u 2 shot by hunters in countdown

I literly watches a guy kill 3 hunters at once while doing 3mvq bullet and lose like no armor to hunters in a video

Even tho being shot at from every side

[fervent berry]

You don't have to face tank with 6R though, that's suicide even with HB on Heroic

[glass raft]

It's not posible

[cinder lily]

so i played conflict yesterday and i see people are complaining about the level rest , what will happen now i was level 8 with most of my things , will i get everything back ?

[fiery temple]

quick chech of numbers comes up with about 1.4karmor with refresh one every headshot
(700(armoor base) *.02)*100

[fervent berry]

The devs have acknowledged this and are working on a solution

I think Conflict will be disabled for the time being

[cinder lily]

i swear if i dont get my things back , bruh that will be disappointing as hell

[fiery temple]

and tbh .. the few i see playing hearbreasker seem to be moveing like its a smg build
dodging running drone or sheild

whats getting reset?

[glass raft]

I'm running pulse and drone for healing

With all blue

Running red gets me killed instantly even if I'm in cover

A single fire nade and I'm dead

That's y I'm asking

Full stacks I get 1 tapped

On all red

[fervent berry]

It takes a different mindset to play 6R because you know you're getting 2-shotted and downed easily

[fiery temple]

toss me an add ... when i play with the numbers a bit more ill see if i can stumble on an ancure

[fervent berry]

At the end of the day, this game is cover based and it tremendously helps

[glass raft]

But my point is people arnt playing 6 red like ur saying, they r literly face tanking

[fiery temple]

iv on,ly seen one or 2 play heartbreaker
so my sample is limitid

[glass raft]

It's mostly from videos that I've seen of it

[fervent berry]

Well, you get bonus armor and dps with HB stacks, yeah. Those folks will facetank anyway. That's their gameplay
When I play HB, I still use cover because I've been used to playing squishy builds

[fiery temple]

althow im going to be messing eith it .. pulse crit was my go to in div one

i usualy run 6 red smg

[glass raft]

But what I'm saying is if u go all red ur armor stacks are based on ur armor in ur build, so it's imposible to tank and yet I'm seeing the opisit as if they take no damage point blank

And yes they r being hit

[fervent berry]

Maybe they have perfect vanguard 😂

[fiery temple]

armor on kill mod sloted somewhere and deleating what ever they look at fast enough to gate??

[glass raft]

No because it's a full crit build

The moment u remove something from the build u lose like 1m dps

And as I said I can't get over 80% crit damage

They r rocking 130%

Idk how

I know my watch isn't makes but even then u get 20%

At most

From the watch

[oblique chasm]

thought you can get 200% crit damage

[glass raft]

If so idk how

As mods only give 13%

And u can only fit 3

U would have to stack crit chance

Making it unreliable

Witch is y I'm confused

[fiery temple]

i sent ya an add ... ill hit ya back if i come up with any ideas

[glass raft]

Max crit chance per pice is 8% assuming the backpack gives 10% that would give u 46? Then the watch give 20%?

Capping at 60

But if u do it with crit mods u get 3 x 8%? + 10%

Can u get elite protection as an armor stat?

[oblique chasm]

weapon mods gear mods weapon talents gear talents

[glass raft]

Not as a mod

[fervent berry]

If they're dealing much DPS while sustaining hard with full red HB, they could be using Coyote's and HB backpack instead of Ceska Vigilance

Don't you get bonus armor 2% per stack with HB BP?

[glass raft]

They r using cheska

With cyote

But how do u get max crit chance? All the slots r crit damage

The back gives say 1 slot for crit chance plus 3 mods plus set bonus right?

So 8x3 from mods + 8 from backpack single slot plus 10% from set off of backpack the the watch levels?

So the stuff only works if ur watch is maxed?

Is the issue here the watch and not the armor?

My main issue isn't the damage

It's the face tanking out of cover vs 3 hunters

Anyways if I'm going all blue, what named item should I use, I'm running carthasis and bullet king

[fervent berry]

With a full red HB, it's possible to reach 50% CHC and at least 110% CHD

I suppose the reason why this guy would facetank is simply because they can kill faster than they get hit

[glass raft]

But tested

With max stacks in countdown

A hunter 2 taps me

With all red

U can't do that

[celest harbor]

@fervent berry you can have 47chc and 140chd with hb,ceska and fenris

[fervent berry]

Nice

[fervent berry]

That's unfortunate, maybe the aggro was on you at the time

[glass raft]

My point was in said videos they have the agro 3 on 1

And take no damage

That's y I'm asking

HOW

[fervent berry]

Oh it's a YouTube video?

Like a build showcase?

[glass raft]

Multiple from different people

Yes

[celest harbor]

Hunters always destroy people, even 6 foundry with bulwark lol

[glass raft]

But I'm watching people eating multiple shots with full red

[celest harbor]

Protection from elites

[glass raft]

U cant

U have 60 130

No room

Every slot is red even mods

[celest harbor]

I'll drop ar and go for smg then i have space

[glass raft]

They r rocking the new king breaker with it

So they arnt dropping to get crit chance

[celest harbor]

I dunno my hb red doesn't grt 2 tapped by hunters

Takes them about 5 to 7 shots

[glass raft]

I got 2 shot

In countdown

From a single hunter at the start of the round

Does ur world dificaulty efect ur countdown dificaulty?

[peak crypt]

At full stacks?

[glass raft]

Couldn't even get stacks

Died instsntly

In cover

[celest harbor]

Oh so he axes you

[peak crypt]

Ya

[frozen holly]

Post that YT video, gotta see whats wrong there.

[celest harbor]

You diss the hunter upclose , you get the axe lol

[fervent berry]

Yeah, something's missing somehow. Now I'm curious

[glass raft]

Full red is death to the player

U last less then a tenth of a second when you get shot at

[glass raft]

That's y I'm asking if my world dificaulty madders

Didn't mean to quote lmao

[celest harbor]

If you get close to them , he will shoot once and axe you, that is enough to down player, regardless of difficulty

[glass raft]

I wasn't close we were both behind cover

[wild oak]

sry if i sound like a broken record but did they send the material compensation for expertise rollback and twitch drops yet?

[glass raft]

Me and the hunter

[glass raft]

No and u won't get ur exotic components back as they r only giving caches

[wild oak]

gr8... 30 exo comp down the drain

[frozen holly]

You aren't alone. :)

[glass raft]

Anyways for a tank build what named item should I use, or should I just stick to my iniza gretica gloves?

[frozen holly]

Spider, you know.. With my 6R HB i can reach 54cc and 144cd.

[fervent berry]

Tank build? Deathgrips for AoK

[frozen holly]

But i'm using groupo+ceska combo.

[glass raft]

What's death grips have on them? Armor?

[fervent berry]

It's still possible to reach 50% CHC with 4 piece HB, Coyote's and Ceska Vigilance BP

[glass raft]

Also all of armor has hazard protection, should I try to refarm for more armor?

[fervent berry]

Deathgrips is named 5.11 so you get health (which is useless AF), but you get 10% AoK with it

[glass raft]

Ohhh

K got u

[fervent berry]

I stack it with Gunner for more AoK and it's fun

[frozen holly]

True, but since everyone runs in Countdown with coyotes i droped mask for more stats.

[glass raft]

I'm using carthasis mask

Should I keep or swap?

[fervent berry]

Oh god yeah, everyone's running Coyote's in Countdown so I just switch to HF or ND in that case

[fervent berry]

I can't vouch for this since I've never used it, but Catharsis could work with a defensive HB set

[glass raft]

I just dropped tardigrade that's y I'm asking

But having 100 stacks instead of 50 seems better

Are the stacks of armor effected by any additional armor on the build or only the core?

Cause that would madder

[fervent berry]

Um, I think the bonus armor you get from the stacks are a percentage of your total armor of your build

Not sure if that makes any sense or if I understood you 😅

[glass raft]

So I'd want to drop hb with armor on it then

Yeah I was asking if 8t was total armor or only maxed core armor

As in 170x6 or not

[fervent berry]

Yeah I think that would be 6 x 170 plus that SHD watch armor bonus

[glass raft]

Ok so I can't get +armor as an attribute only Regen and on kill only from set bonuses?

Are there any set bonuses that give 10% at 1 pice?

[fervent berry]

Armor is core only but armor regen and AoK (Deathgrips only) are attributes.
Not 10%, but Gila and Uzina provide 5% total armor with 1 piece.
I think Belstone provides 1% armor regen with 1 piece.

** I haven't fully awakened this morning yet, so someone verify me on this since I'm always doubting myself 😂

[glass raft]

So death grips and then add armor Regen to everything?

Or keep hazard protection?

Do death grips drop in PvE?

If I run countdown with 5.11 as loot can I get them?

[fervent berry]

By the way, Foundry also does 10% total armor but you need 2 pieces

When I hear "tank builds", I immediately think 4 piece FB

I think both armor regen and hazpro are great in a tank build. I think one is more viable in PvP though (probably hazpro) but armor regen is fine in PvE afaik.

[glass raft]

But should sacking 2 slots for fb be worth it if I'm not running 4?

[fervent berry]

I personally don't know if Deathgrips is DZ-only, but I've gotten 3 of them from named caches, specifically.
Also, 5.11 isn't really viable or at least I don't see anyone recommending it.

[glass raft]

Well if death grips r 5.11 and assuming they drop in countdown

Then wouldn't I set it to 5.11 or would I set it to gloves?

[fair lake]

Mop (shotgun) also gives 10% AoK but it's not brand or set, I know)

[fervent berry]

Oh just looked it up, Deathgrips is only in the DZ

[glass raft]

So named cache only?

[fervent berry]

Yeah, The Mop has that 10% too, thanks

[glass raft]

So if I drop the carthasis mask then what 2 prices of brand would I use?

2 uzina gives the 10% on kill but idk

[fervent berry]

Hmmm, let's see. Just kinda brainstorming here with no testing 😂
4 piece FB (chest, BP, holster kneepads), Badger mask and Deathgrip gloves

Then you'd probably run The Mop and a secondary AR or whatever you like, something

[glass raft]

What does badger do and it's exotic right?

[fervent berry]

Badger Tuff, iirc, provides 10%(?) shotgun damage with 1 piece

No, it's not exotic. You can farm that anywhere you can target it

[glass raft]

What about 2 pice gili and use nightwatcher as 1 if the 2?

Or would having just that and death grips be better?

[coral dune]

fast question: so playing countdown will erase all Your upgrades? Is that confirmed?

[glass raft]

It wont

Only pvp

Whatever its called

Also the pvp doesn't give exp at all

So u can't even get proficiency

Or shd

[coral dune]

Is there any official statement about it?

[glass raft]

Yeah

The tweeted and said they can't fix it atm

And to not do it

[coral dune]

ok, let me check

[fervent berry]

Honestly, Deathgrips is situational and I think it's underrated. But it probably could be switched to something else that's better imo.
2 piece Gila, sure if you like. But unless you're running pulse skills, normal Gila mask instead of Nightwatcher is fine, I think

[glass raft]

They also art reimbursing if u do get reset

I'm running pulse to stack hb with bullet king

My second gun had the technician pointer

[coral dune]

@glass raft ty

[glass raft]

I could swap out the bullet king

[desert crystal]

I just melt every thing its ao easy

Hope that helps

[desert crystal]

does haveing a full watch make stuff easier

[glass raft]

Seems like it

As excess points bleed over to ur other agents on ur account

So u can save shd caches up

Ontop of the 20% in every stat

U would have to hit 1000 tho

[dense shore]

Can anyone guide me to the nearest right chat so I can look into builds

If there pinned even better

[fervent berry]

Check the pinned section, there's a master spreadsheet there (Div 2 Gear Spreadsheet, I think)

Thanks

[gritty terrace]

Was there a channel for newer people to get the ropes, just being doing everything solo and trying to up the difficulty where possible but not sure about raiding/other events in game and what lfg groups to join in etc

[glass raft]

I'd help u if u were on ps4 lol

Does skill duration effect how long someone is pulsed as upgrading the skill expertise increases duration

There is a red 1 on my shield

I can't take it off my build

[slate barn]

[modest lintel]

i can help u later in an hour

[gritty terrace]

cheers, just dm me when your free

[slate barn]

Is there any certain part where you’d say to start trying to solo missions?

[glass raft]

From the start u can solo most things

If u want help I can come help u

[lilac elbow]

Game crash when running countdown, Is it me or everyone else's too?

[glass raft]

Most pc

No fix till 2023

[agile jungle]

Why is my HB build so shit i keep dying

the armour stacks dont do shit

it disappears from 1 enemy bullet

[glass raft]

Try running tech for the Lazer pointer

Then mount it on an acs or police m4

[agile jungle]

i have

check build advice my builds almost done and it barely works for me

[glass raft]

R u red or blue?

[agile jungle]

6 red is what im tryna get

[glass raft]

Ya that's y ur dying

[agile jungle]

apparently 20mil dps?

[glass raft]

I was being 2 shot

And gave up

[agile jungle]

Yeah the fucking build doesnt even work man

My stack disappears from a single enemy shot

[glass raft]

Y do u think I was saying what I was saying eelyer

How do the tubers tank

And survive

U can see them doing it

[agile jungle]

Now i have to farm blue HB gear .____.

[glass raft]

It's not posible without hacking

[glass raft]

That's really fast full set in 1 run

Single run of countdown if u don't crash

Otherwise just do the sumit

But countdown backpacks and chests drop like candy

[full zinc]

If you have a red hb set you had to roll it red. Just roll a couple pieces back till survivability meets damage output

[glass raft]

Oh yah, can't u just recall it back ? I didn't think of that

But if he is recalibrating it back wouldn't 8t still have crit all over it?

[slate barn]

The big guys are hard 🧍

[glass raft]

Send me a friend request

I will help u lol

Idk how to do that 🧍

[glass raft]

U own a ps4

Got a 12.51 dark hours and it registered as a 14.58....

It was quick and it worked last night. Thanks!

Had to reset though.

[tidal moat]

anybody know where i can get rogue agents and hunter kills?

trying to complete project for ridgeways

[tender wave]

rogues spawn quite frequently in summit, just run a few floors and you should find some (or keep jumping between lobby & any non-boss floor until you get them). Hunters can easily be found in Countdown or summit floor 100

[tidal moat]

hunters didnt count for me in countdown

[tender wave]

well, either floor 100 or (if you haven't already) do some of the hunter mask puzzles

[tidal moat]

appreciate it.

[turbid aurora]

whu do i delta every ten minutes on dz

noting is wrong with me or my squads internet and it keeps happening

[remote mirage]

I'm kinda new to TD2 and just started with Black Tusk and the World Tiers and I'm finally starting to have some real fun

1-30 is way too easy

[turbid aurora]

get to 40

the end game content gets better

[remote mirage]

Is that through WONY? I am gonna do that after the Black Tusk stuff

[turbid aurora]

oh aight enjoy yourself

[jolly kettle]

Does anyone know if the apparel event goes off tomorrow? or is it beeing delayed to next tuesday?

[bright kernel]

The out to get us pvpers cuh

[oblique chasm]

Surely its worth running through WONY, then returning to any other activity after?

[hard cipher]

Are you able to acquire the nemesis without having WoNY?

[hybrid ore]

Yep, it's part of the base game.

[tawdry python]

Anyone else notice that the TKB-408 is bugged in appearance? I noticed that the grips and magazine, when you swap them for the larger bullet count and anything even related to the grip mount options, they are out of place and clip horribly through the weapon.

[azure lintel]

Floating mags are new SHD tech 😎

[tropic compass]

Lol div2 on PS4 loads faster from startup than my laptop does

6 mins on ps, 8 mins laptop

[azure lintel]

really depends on how much of a toaster your laptop is tbh

[molten spire]

On a laptop that was a smidge below minimum settings but with an SSD, the load time was basically Internet connection limited

[tough geyser]

is kingbreaker apart of any other loot pools other than assault rifle?

[wheat zinc]

It’s a named AR, so named item caches could drop it. The current season caches also

[tough geyser]

thanks

[proven minnow]

What is the best way to farm expertise ?

[novel laurel]

thats because rogues and hunters arent the same thing

[azure lintel]

does anyone know an alternative to the kingbreaker assault rifle?

[short gazelle]

Eagle Bearer?

[modest lintel]

a weapon?

[azure lintel]

Yes

[fervent berry]

Carbine 7 with dtooc and flatline would be good stuff

[shrewd perch]

how do i get more ironworks base materials?

[tender wave]

Run fresh iron horse raid on Normal, open key boxes

[shrewd perch]

if i make another character will i get the materials?

i already ran it on my main

[tender wave]

Yes

[jolly kettle]

Does anyone know if the apparel event goes off tomorrow? or is it beeing delayed to next tuesday?

[azure lintel]

bro this crashing is so annoying

i thought they fixed it

[desert crystal]

? any one here have higher than 40% cpu when outside

[plain slate]

Ehm, did latest update nerfed critchance on gear? I dropped solid 20% since my last login :D

[wide condor]

nope, but check what weapon you are checking in stats, its hold G to switch between the 4

smg's usually have high crit chance so you might have been looking at that

[plain slate]

Mhm, nah, i had 55% with my burger king setup, now it shows 35%

Kinda weird

[wide condor]

i still have the usual 60% or so on my crit builds

[hexed sentinel]

ddid anyone get the drop from twitch yet? i still havent

[wide condor]

besides a random level 30 exotic.. nope

[hexed sentinel]

bruh

they did say they were gonna give it to us yesterday right

[lament mirage]

Eb since the talent synergies well with HB

[wide condor]

doesnt give a date here https://twitter.com/TheDivisionGame/status/1527288966772404224

[hexed sentinel]

hmm

alright

[polar saddle]

Im looking at the map and there is supposed to be a "bounty" vendor of some kind if you look near the white house base. But I can reach it, do I need to be a member of a clan to be able to interact with it?

[tender wave]

bounty vendors just show the same bounty screen you can access directly from your map

[polar saddle]

Oh

Thanks

[tender wave]

there is a clan vendor in the clan quarters, but that's a separate thing (they just sell items like a normal gear vendor)

[desert crystal]

did any have a ubi connect update today

[proven condor]

Laptop takes 10 seconds to load Div 2 😂

Your laptop is a potato for sure.

[polar saddle]

Ive just reinstalled the game after a long while away. Last time I played the game was like new and I leveled to 30 and quit playing after that, dont know why. But now im back giving the game a chance again. Its a bit overwhelming though with all the features and I have access to the DLC as well. Should I stay in DC and do stuff here untill I feel ready to go to NY and play there? Im thinking its better to do stuff here in DC first, playing the Dark Zone maybe. And what is a good way to gear up? What missions can I do? Should I do bounties?

Where should I start would have been easier to write I realize now 😄

[rich shadow]

Go to New York, enjoy the story and get to level 40. Once you're at level 40 the game opens up and you can begin to make builds, farm for gear, and get up the difficulty ladder.

[velvet cedar]

Yoo what's poppin yall

[rapid compass]

Good afternoon, dudes! How is your day going?

[velvet cedar]

It's alright hbu

[rapid compass]

I have a question, I haven't seen Eph for quite a time, anybody knows anything? Maybe @reef reef can bring some info'?

[reef reef]

Eph left the server.

[rapid compass]

Doing fine! About to grind a bit more of the first The Division and then jumping to the second one again!

[rapid compass]

DAMN! That's a shame! Between you, Azurmen, Saph and Eph I learned so much!

I'm pressing F for this.

[reef reef]

F.

[velvet cedar]

I wish I got to play division 1

[rich shadow]

He was asked to leave wasn't he?

[reef reef]

He left, thats all i'll say.

[rapid compass]

Fair enough, I just wanted to know what happened.

Anyway, going back on track... I hope you're all doing great!

[rapid compass]

I'm just about to finish the campaign and jump back to World Tiers, due to the fact that I saved my old gear and I can use it to go to the DZ again... which I love, aesthetically speaking.

[velvet cedar]

I have a love hate relationship with the dz everytime I log on I'm always there

[lament mirage]

I love it

Body n get bodied

[velvet cedar]

Yep

[lament mirage]

Only reason I still play td2 atm

[velvet cedar]

I rely heavy on my teammates. DOA knows what they are doing 🤣

[lament mirage]

Ah I play solo

[rich shadow]

Solo? All alone?

[velvet cedar]

Squads make it fun asf

[lament mirage]

Yea dz

Solo n a decoy all u need tho if I see someone chilling sometimes I'll link up with em

Solo just be fun

[zinc shadow]

why can’t you?

[pallid fiber]

excuse me but i just had 2 exotic caches turn up and im not sure where they came from,.. has the compensation happened ?

[velvet cedar]

Not good at it I don't have dlcs

[tropic compass]

Lol i hit this rogue so hard that the game didn't register the shot

[fervent berry]

Two Countdown sessions in a row and people are calling extraction too early. Is there a trend that's happening? 😂

[tropic compass]

85 mill d50 shot

[fervent berry]

I just wanna farm my gear

[zinc shadow]

well the DLC goes on sale often enough no? and you can remedy the former of your own accord :p

[velvet cedar]

I'll see to it

[autumn furnace]

yeah.....some players really dont get what to do

[autumn furnace]

summit challenges ? legendary mission ? Season reward track ?

[desert crystal]

isnt countdown outside summit

[autumn furnace]

yeah...offsite location like summit...why

[lone valve]

Going back to cresting a new character in div1
And good god the customization is not even on the same lane as div 2
So few options 🤔

[autumn furnace]

just randomise

[storm scaffold]

So I know I’m late to the topic, but I just finished the second target and I am supposed to go talk to Kelso with second key…she isn’t there…so, is there a work around to this or are we waiting for a fix?

[lean grove]

What the..

[velvet cedar]

Wtf

Who tf are the hunters

We still have no lore on them?

[rich heart]

Anybody else get about x4-5 longer loading time when entering the game?

Bruh... took me 10 minutes to load in and got a delta. Lmao.

[fiery cloud]

Afternoon RIRI

[desert crystal]

@rich heart no seams fine to me

[ancient delta]

heeeeeere we go........3.8 Gigabyte !!!!!!!!!! patch

PC

[desert crystal]

@ancient delta havent you been on since yesterday

[green stone]

Golly gee I sure do love trying to take out the rest of the Hunters on the map and being unable to fast travel without breaking the puzzle

Time to run across 60% of the map

Currently on Carbon, by the way

[ancient delta]

oh i have to watch the Telly....Skynews and Euronews ..how the World goes down the Shitter :)))))))))))))))))))))))

and we are talking Vladimir here

[lean grove]

Try watching RT

[ancient delta]

Hmm

[ancient delta]

im afraid im not kidding......its actual Wind

It’s easier to warm up than cool off

[lean grove]

I love the heat

Feeeeeel the buuuurrrnnnnnn

[gloomy lark]

I like fall weather

[lean grove]

Cool

[lament mirage]

Hiya saph

Damn heat straight pounding today

Sadly got 3-4 months left of it

and just like that EVERYTHING sucks in our time

[lean grove]

I prefer the heat primarily because of my allergies when it gets cold, but I think I'd still feel the same even without them. I just feel comfortable in all aspects, especially clothing. 🙂 And I love the sun

[gloomy lark]

Heat and humidity is the worst

[lean grove]

Humidity sucks, yea.

[ancient delta]

and thats the thing......People in the 1960s havent dreamed about the Realities ALL OF IT....in 2022

[lament mirage]

Agreed

[gloomy lark]

Atleast heat cooks off some of the bugs

[lament mirage]

I miss 20-30's

[lean grove]

Nice Profile pic. I'm a ME fan as well. 🤙

[lean grove]

At least..

[gloomy lark]

Damn skeeters

It wouldn’t be as bad if pvp wasn’t complete trash

[lean grove]

We need more free weekends to enjoy the multiplayer for us broke folks.

Y'know?

🤣

[gloomy lark]

Pretty underwhelming for a year wait

Buy it on sale it’s dirt cheap

[lean grove]

I have the game

Just can't afford PS Plus

[gloomy lark]

Ah

[lean grove]

Lol

[lapis crypt]

oh no

[lean grove]

Did he go already, that was fast..

[lapis crypt]

wanted to ask what triggered him

[gloomy lark]

I usually buy a year when it goes on sale for $40

[lean grove]

Lmao

Me too

[gloomy lark]

Every holiday season

[lean grove]

Oh I see, yea I wish I could.

This is why I rather stick with Warzone and Breakpoint. Tons of stuff I can grind towards and get that satisfaction, you know?

It doesn't burn me out, keeps me entertained and a good stress buster.

Also just crossed a bit over 200 hours in FFXV. Wohoo

[rough shoal]

Friendly reminder sleigher and chill out can be farmed today

[lament mirage]

Td2 has that satisfaction

[rough shoal]

I tried farming it in open world... but it's very unreliable iilled it once in 20min

[lean grove]

I know what you mean, and although I really enjoy TD2, not being able to play with others and gain access to the DZ plus other stuff like Summit, etc, I feel left out.

[gloomy lark]

Is chill out in gila targeted loot or you need the loot guy?

[rough shoal]

I was trying to farm the loot Santa guy but only found him once so when I get back ima farm the loot in Countdown or summit

[lean grove]

With Breakpoint and Warzone, I have A.I Teammates, and access to online players without paying for PS Plus.

Still trying to get my old account back anyway, locked out since end of April.

[gloomy lark]

Is breakpoint free to play now?

[lean grove]

PS support sucks!

[vapid crypt]

Breakpoint is seriously satisfying, being able to take over bases silently and hitting that one in million shot

[lean grove]

Not online play, I was talking about Warzone.

[gloomy lark]

Ah ic

[lean grove]

But my character and R6 Teammates, Ohhwee that's a winner!

We have fun. 😉

[lean grove]

Damn straight. I recorded some pretty cool snipes today. I love going up against the Bodarks.

I let them call reinforcements, most of the time. 😎

[vapid crypt]

The addition of Bodarks is lovely, requires a whole new playstyle

[lean grove]

The wolves are 💩 compared to them, perhaps with the exception of the irritating rushers with the shotguns, man those guys can give us a fight, almost take my whole team out with a few of them around us.

[vapid crypt]

I've played realism a few times, and they seriously are dicks lmao 😂

[lean grove]

True that, I'm so grateful they added them with extra armor as well, because a lot of the enemies previously were so easy to pick off, I barely felt challenged, even on a moderate immersive difficulty setting.

I love when they can give me a fight, make me earn my kills.

[lean grove]

😆

I have to say though, I do enjoy going after the Behemoths, half cocked.

[eager lotus]

Any Italian group around for raid/group content? Don't even know where to look at, looks like Italian community is non existent :/

[wet igloo]

Pretty much

Foreign communities for raids are rare I suppose

[fervent berry]

You can always hit up LFG channel to find your group, best of luck

[modest lintel]

even dz targeted loot wasnt right

[fervent berry]

I think someone commented earlier that targeted loot doesn't show up in the DZ when it's supposed to. Is this another feature? 😂

[modest lintel]

it shows the targeted loot, but when u killed npc or the boss in landmark. it didn't drop the targeted loot

just random stuff

[astral jacinth]

So apparel event is tomorrow?

[fervent berry]

Yes, supposedly, praying to the gods for no more delays

Servers will be down for 2 hrs

By the way, Sleigher and Chill Out are now added in named caches, right?

Can they be farmed from hoarders too?

[copper oar]

I wonder what the real world equivalent is for Pathway Park in New York.

[lone valve]

Funny thing
I searched it up when doing wony for the first time

[copper oar]

It must be the The Lowline First Underground Park in NY http://thelowline.org/

[lone valve]

Yea it is

[copper oar]

Although in game looks finished, in the real world it's put on hold as of 2020 due to funding. Still a cool project tho.

[lone valve]

I'm one of those that both in div 1 and div 2 NYC searched up most streets and locations to look at them irl compared to the game 😅

[copper oar]

If anything, if I ever travel to DC or NY, I might recognise a location.

[lone valve]

Georgetown in div2
Aka one of the DZs
Is particularly similar I've seen

[copper oar]

Would love to visit the American History Museum in DC (probably similarly named)

[alpine tiger]

Why devs dont suspend trash dx12 crash

[steel token]

I had the same control point under attack 8 times today

[copper oar]

PC Crashing will be looked into when TU16 comes around, according to Comm Dev.

[lone valve]

On the other hand
Viewpoint museum iirc closed down irl

[desert crystal]

i found a list of the real life names with the in game names

Theatre - Ford's Theatre

Grand Washington Hotel - Grand Hyatt

Jefferson Trade Center - Ronald Reagan Building and International Trade Center

ViewPoint Museum - Newseum

DC-62 Quarantine - Department of Agriculture

Museum Water Source - National Museum of the American Indian

Air & Space Museum - Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum

The Castle - Smithsonian Castle

Jefferson Plaza - L'Enfant Plaza

[elder sierra]

has there been issues noted with the HB gear set not stacking armour sometimes even with the enemies spotted?

[jolly oasis]

You never knew it was real places?

[dull blaze]

Man i wish they ran old apparel events again, all the gear u can buy is so lame

[tropic compass]

Iron horse foundry takes place near the countdown power plant

Well both are under the pentco power co name

[desert crystal]

what

[hybrid ore]

You know who'd love to read this lore? The folks over in #division-universe

[desert crystal]

aparently Roosevelt Island is atualy called that

[tropic compass]

Bottom right on this banner https://imgur.com/a/5yTBSrk

Is the image blurry?

[desert crystal]

so your saying IH and countdown are the same map

[reef reef]

united ironworks is the name of the foundry, probably owned by the same people who own wherever countdown is

[steel token]

How many tactical assessment do u get from a 3 man bounty

Cause the first one gave me 4 and I think the next 2 only gave me 1

[azure lintel]

I have posted a spicy topic against the state of heartbreaker, but I also made it a textwall so no one would have the courage to dispute it

I should write theses on psychology

[autumn furnace]

reddit ? ...gonna reply with TLDR

[azure lintel]

Abstract: speak much = brain lost = no good

[steel token]

Heartbreaker needs a buff

[azure lintel]

Oh yeah, Reddit is a thing

I'm not touching that shithole tho

The people with the redditor profile pictures use too many exclamation marks

[autumn furnace]

yeah....its a powderkeg these days

[azure lintel]

I didn't even check it tbh, but it's probably full of posts on the recent expertise thing, I assume?

[autumn furnace]

yeah ranting all over ....

[hybrid ore]

Very different to here of course.

[rugged hatch]

Foundry Bulwark + Bulwark shield + Liberty + Foam launcher is fun as heck.

[near crest]

i wish we had cross save

it should be a thing tbh

everything is already saved too there servers

[desert crystal]

@near crest yes would be good especialy if your useing the same account on all platforms

[tropic compass]

🤣 whenever people refer to the bluescreen i immediately think of the crashing that used to happen on ps4

Cross save would help me get the ravenous and join raids

[vestal vale]

Wtf Kelso Clode herself and the key is buged out

[autumn furnace]

what ?

if your key is bugged...just reset manhunt and play it all alone

[vestal vale]

i did

3 times

[azure lintel]

Anyone ever managed to melee wildlife in the game?

[autumn furnace]

why would you attempt such a cruel action ?

[split sail]

Um why would you want to?

[azure lintel]

Curiosity

They always get away and run faster than the player

[fervent berry]

Those things have spidey senses

But I'm sure a hunter could whack it easily with their god blessed handaxe

[barren swallow]

I wonder if u could foam a deer and then pummel it

[fervent berry]

I tried that one time, oddly enough, and the deer just hopped its way outta there like nothing happened

[reef reef]

you guys are mean

[fervent berry]

I wish you could adopt a dog there

[azure lintel]

I still want to see if the deer ragdolls into the sky with explosions, but I rarely play demo

[tender wave]

...I'm half expecting one of the mods to just ban you on the spot for that

[azure lintel]

It's a bunch of lines of code

[tender wave]

arguably, so are we all

[rugged hatch]

I tried to foam a deer already it has no effect on them.

I wanted to smack it with my shield, but I didn't get it.

[vestal vale]

smh

[barren swallow]

Use the explosive xbow for the authentic hunting experience

[rugged hatch]

lol

Already cooked once you get to it, smart.

[azure lintel]

Yeah, yesterday I was grabbing some food for a project and saw a stray dog; shame we can't give some to them, even if just for the sake of it

You could give stuff to NPCs in 1 sometimes, and they'd even drop you items

[autumn furnace]

dont talk your way out of your wrong poled morale compass....

[azure lintel]

Imagine giving food to the dog and then it just goes "okay, here's a sniper"

[hollow lynx]

wish there were more interactions with the dog in new haven settlement

[fervent berry]

You could pet the one in Haven, yet you can't pet any dog in the open and it's made me internally destroyed

[azure lintel]

I'm simply looking for interactions with the environment in a game with plenty

Did you know your character's arms are an object with volume when it comes to interacting with other physics objects?

[gusty fable]

Till you need to interact with something important and a dog runs up and instead of doing said thing, you crouch down for a 5-10 second animation of said dog petting

Then you will dislike it

[azure lintel]

When I started this character I was trying to take a picture in front of a monitor with the surrender emote that extends the arms, seeing if I could make it look like I was typing or something

I actually pushed the monitor down and the light source with it

Gotta love it when the environment itself is a character in the game

[hollow lynx]

was just randomly shooting things in DC and found that on some buildings with brick exterior you can shoot and destroy each individual brick

[azure lintel]

I used to have this ritual where I'd have to pet Sparky whenever I came across him the first time I was doing WONY

I got stuck in a hell of my own making

Rhodes calls you to the office and you have to go back to craft gear? That's two pets for the pet demon

[fervent berry]

It's funny how some building interiors aren't even properly rendered, like office chairs and tables just look like 8-bit graphics and flat. Ironically great detailed 😂

[vestal vale]

i think they should turn ny in to a big dz

[coral meadow]

Does the invasion reset after a maintenance? 🤔

[tender wave]

only resets on tuesdays

[coral meadow]

So not after tomorrows maintenance then?

[hollow lynx]

nope

[coral meadow]

Alright 👍 thank you

[azure lintel]

I picked up Dread Edict and saw an empty scope mount when inspecting it

And for a moment there I was euphoric

Then I equipped it

The Dread Edict Incident of 2022

[fervent berry]

Are those weapon names supposed to be codenames for past characters?

It'd be cool to meet "Dread Edict"

[potent chasm]

Is it possible if we could get previews of the Fairview Crew appearel items?

[tender wave]

dude, it's like 8 hours or so, just be patient

you'll have a whole week at least to get them

[reef reef]

if you reeeeeeeeeally wanna see em, take a nap

[azure lintel]

Damn, PVP is a blast in this game

It's a random dude trying one one-hit me with a sticky bomb while picking the right time to not be immune to my damage

I am even so engaged by this, I will go do something else

[midnight burrow]

Is conflict still broken

[jolly kettle]

Any other thoughts too the fairview crew apparel event that starts 1530 pm europe time, what do people exspect? I have or had many thoughts but it might be similar to the previous Apparel events i heard. Its my first time, but i managed to get clothes even i have not taken part at apparel event before.

[azure lintel]

You will always get apparel cache keys leveling every few levels

[clever canyon]

ironworks base materials? it only takes 2 weeks to fulfill the materials right?

[azure lintel]

The event is just different stuff

[jolly kettle]

Hmmm so ive heard i thought the fairview crew apparel event would be with fairview crew enemies and a bit more challenging to level up and so on.

But i will give it a try even it might be too easy and maybe a little bit dissapointing

[tender wave]

it's just the same game as you've been playing already, just you'll sometimes get a bonus piece of clothing

nothing more than that

[blissful kettle]

i was just talking to somone ingame on pc in the darkzone and i clicked leave group on acident 😦

[reef reef]

you've gotten previous apparel event stuff because awhile after the apparel event ends, the clothes are put into the normal apparel caches.

seriously, dont get your hopes up.

[fallen iron]

Has anyone received "compensation" for their roll-back?

[fading orchid]

nope. unless you count the refunded resources.

[tender wave]

the refunded resources was the only compensation offered

(and would only be applicable if you had items downgraded, not just your expertise level)

[vestal vale]

i think they are going to give everyone efunded resources

[chrome peak]

??

[split sail]

You need to post in #lfg-pc

[chrome peak]

oh mb

[sudden inlet]

Does watch level Progression shared between characters

[reef reef]

yes

[honest plume]

I thought they fixed the expertise? Shouldn't I be 344/344 once I hit lvl 20? Hit 20 and now at 305/344

[autumn furnace]

nope...correct

you dont have to be prof 10 for all to get to 20

[honest plume]

Okay sweet thanks

Any of you guys know fastest way to get exotics? I mean liberty crafting takes 30-45 mins but damn is it boring

[autumn furnace]

bountys...summit ? .....bounties in AR targeted loot always gives me plenty chameleons

[honest plume]

Sweet imma try that out

[autumn furnace]

and summit...where to start....2h floor 10...and i have atleast 10 exos

[sudden inlet]

Also if one of my characters hasn’t gone to New York yet and I went into the dark zone at level 30 will there be higher levels? ( I’m doing trophies)

[autumn furnace]

puhhh dunno

[honest plume]

Been running summit with 2 accounts but exotic drop rates are weird. Sometimes I'd get 5 quick but then dry for hours

[autumn furnace]

i always reset the challenges ...give lead to another player...leave grp....lobby...reset all at elevator...rejoin grp

most of the exos i get arent drops...they are floor or challenge rewards

[honest plume]

Won't that move you up a floor if you're farming 10th floor?

[celest fable]

are oxi strats still a thing in summit floor 100?

[autumn furnace]

not if you grenade yourself and dont enter the pathway to floor 11

[honest plume]

Yep that's what I do. But what I meant was does resetting challenges advance the floor?

[autumn furnace]

onyl if you are alone...and go back to lobby

[honest plume]

Ok sweet thanks

[autumn furnace]

if someone stays at floor 10 and you rejoin you can reset the challenges all day

[honest plume]

I'm trying to make up for the 35 exotic components I lost from rollback so thanks for the tips

[autumn furnace]

yeah ,...dropped 6 lvls^^ so same here...but more like 100

[honest plume]

Same. Dropped 6 lvls too from 23. Damn u spent a lot lol. Hopefully you get them back

[azure lintel]

I just hit expertise 1, upgraded some of the heartbreaker pieces and noticed the next proficiency bonus is also 1% armor

Tell me I don't get +20% armor per piece at max level and end up totaling +120% armor

[honest plume]

It's 20% of that piece. So 20% of 170k

[azure lintel]

A bit less awful to picture

[hybrid ore]

Well since 6pc Gearsets aren't a thing in div2, you should never have that anyway.

[azure lintel]

But the armor bonus affects the piece specifically, doesn't it?

[autumn furnace]

yeah

[azure lintel]

So I could just get proficient with the other 2 pieces and get the armor bonus for them as well

[autumn furnace]

no

[azure lintel]

I don't understand why not

[autumn furnace]

u only get the bonus for specific parts whhich are expertise lvl up

[azure lintel]

Doesn't this mean I can just level up the other two pieces as well and then get the bonus on them?

[full zinc]

Yes

As long as they are proficient

[azure lintel]

So the "no" answer is actually "yes", thanks

[near crest]

can we get cross save pls devs

[full zinc]

🤣

[reef reef]

probably not

[near crest]

i know they can do it too

[reef reef]

they probably could, if given enough time and resources, but they dont exactly have that right now

[near crest]

hmm hopefully they get everything they need too make it possable

[reef reef]

but going into a place the devs rarely frequent and saying "can we get cross save pls devs" is probably not the way to get an actual answer

[autumn furnace]

sry i thought you mean that the bonus appliies for the whole gunclass/brandset/gearset

[autumn furnace]

why would they ? its cost intensive...and they wont get any more revenue

[copper oar]

I wish they could fix random stuff blowing up or blowing up again after the fact they been destroyed....feels like a chapter of Fallout 4 where cars would randomly blow up.

[autumn furnace]

random act of magic 🙂

[copper oar]

ah~ that is probably what it is lol

[honest plume]

@autumn furnace how do I reset challenges in summit

[autumn furnace]

go to elevator...and reset checkpoint or what its called...that resets all already finished challneges too

[honest plume]

Sweet thank you

[azure lintel]

Man, "finishing" a countdown with half the people out because of disconnections feels bad

[autumn furnace]

i just finished one with 3^^

[gloomy lark]

Wish countdown xp was better

[spring narwhal]

I just unlocked clans what now?

[umbral juniper]

Don’t play conflict you will lose ALL your expertise you put into weapons. Bad bug

[plush fjord]

i have completed this weeks manhunt, i have gotten key #2, it says I do not have the encryption key and I can not interact with Lau. Daniels is X'd out. anyone have any ideas? I am not in a group.(sorry I am not sure where to ask this question)

[umbral juniper]

Same here, I logged out and back in an hour later it just popped up and I could

[gloomy wyvern]

Is the talent opportunist multiplitive or additive?

[umbral juniper]

Additive I believe, looking at the numbers

[remote mirage]

Ayyy I just beat the last two Black Tusk strongholds for the first time with some turkish rando. If you're out there turkish dude, it's been emotional 🥲

[magic rock]

@near crest game needs cross play too

[wanton gyro]

whas the best spot to farm electronics?

[autumn furnace]

targeted loot gearsets countdown...

[wanton gyro]

ty

[azure lintel]

Multiplicative

Pretty good reference chart here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vQiAYZUf_k8zpoBnEJgYoJRUpnLZ8SG98zO7vn6fKbN1l7_tevaw9t_qOXhpg_ELr48ZUhRNJCaRWS3/pubhtml

[bold quail]

The Division or The Division 2? Which is better in your opinion

[wanton gyro]

ive only played division 2, but if division is worth playing through i might

[azure lintel]

it's worth it

[spring narwhal]

I played td1 for a long time and just started td2, so far 2 is just as fun as 1 if not more so.

[bold quail]

Is the expansion worth 2x price?

[wanton gyro]

yes

for me at least

[hybrid ore]

@bold quail WONY goes on sale about once every 15 minutes, so definitely wait for a nice discount.
It's effectively the 2nd half of div2.

[spring narwhal]

"once every 15 minutes" lol

[bold quail]

Is it actually that time frame?+

Because I am buying the game today, I am not waiting for a discount

[hybrid ore]

Slight exaggeration, but only a slight one.

[spring narwhal]

the only reason I bought the standard version of 2 is because it was on sale for like 5 bucks, cant beat that

[hybrid ore]

The usual discount is 75% off for the expansion.

[spring narwhal]

I love a good discount, ubisoft just giving it away

[fading orchid]

i want the gift :<

[autumn furnace]

so get it

[fading orchid]

rng hates me.

[autumn furnace]

she is a cruel mistress

[wanton gyro]

i can grind with you i need it

[autumn furnace]

event is over ...gotta wait for the next one

[sleek yew]

Has anyone else been getting crashes after every Countdown match? It's been so bad

[fading orchid]

like even with loot allocation i still can't get it to drop. lol

[wanton gyro]

oh it hsa to be during an event?

[autumn furnace]

no but you can get the named caches there

[fading orchid]

yeah i had 20 and i got trolleed

[wanton gyro]

can i do countdown and do the named caches?

[autumn furnace]

that too

[fading orchid]

it gave me Claws Out

xD

[autumn furnace]

but events are far better ,,,made around 760 stars last one

[hybrid ore]

If an item is DZ locked, you won't be able to obtain it from Countdown itself.
However, it's still a fantastic way to farm out the rest of the gear you need for your build.

small tip: use Countdown's selectable TL to finish off your Recal Library.

[wanton gyro]

so i cant get the gift from named caches?

[hybrid ore]

Named Item caches have DZ locked loot in them, so yes!

[wanton gyro]

okay ty just wanted to confirm

is countdown the best way to farm named item caches or is there a better way?

[autumn furnace]

atm its the only way

until an event comes up

[wanton gyro]

ah okay gotcha

[hybrid ore]

Countdown doesn't drop Named Item caches, just the selected Targeted Loot.
You'll have to wait for an Event to specifically farm them.

[autumn furnace]

u still have to buy them for countdown points ...at the vendor

[hybrid ore]

the closest you can get in Countdown is the Hunters dropping LZ loot.
yeah outside of buying them for Countdown funbucks.

[wanton gyro]

yeah ik that ive been doing the exotic one but so far got all the exotics im interested in

[fading orchid]

its hard to get countdown points imo. i get out dpsed. xD

[autumn furnace]

u dont need dps

point calculation isnt who did most dmg

or dmg at all

[wanton gyro]

extracting has been the best for me, so i try to just do that. i dont know a good build for countdown so i just use perfect blast cannon bc i like dps

[hybrid ore]

@fading orchid The "standard red DPS" and Heartbreaker builds will carry you through Countdown, assuming your team is pulling its weight.
just make sure you're collecting the Hunter tokens.

you alright there, Victor?

[wanton gyro]

yeah ive seen them typing for awhiiiile lol

what pieces of heartbreaker do you want? and what should the other two high end items be?

[gloomy wyvern]

Thanks a lot. The wording on the perfect version isn't clear. I should've checked the normal one

[hybrid ore]

@wanton gyro All but the Backpack+Mask, for those try a Ceska w/Vigilance, and Coyotes.
3r/3b, shield on.

You are now a face tank who can wipe the map.

[autumn furnace]

i run chest backpack holster kneepads....improvised gloves and chillout mask

[wanton gyro]

ty, whats 3r/3b bc im slow

[hybrid ore]

3 red cores, 3 blue.
so that's 3 weapon damage and 3 armour. Makes your shield nice.

[autumn furnace]

got 60% protection from elites and can facetank and kill hunters solo

[hybrid ore]

I've also tried it by swapping out the Coyotes for another brand and its still good, as long as you keep that CHC as close to 60% as you can.

[wanton gyro]

fo me my damage and CHC is reaaaaally bad, and idrk how to improve it

need a better backpack bc i got hs damage instead of CHC but thats all i can really see

[hybrid ore]

Ceska will help a lot, the 10% innate CHC is very nice.
outside of that, just change rolls on gear to CHC+CHD once your chance is decent.

[hallow perch]

yo can anyone help me farm my new acc??

[hybrid ore]

@hallow perch You're looking for #lfg-pc

[hallow perch]

tanks

[wanton gyro]

nvm ive noticed i was using the wrong weapon

had hs dmg instead of chance

[hybrid ore]

Victor, if you want you can PM me with that question, if you're nervous about dropping it on the main channel.

@wanton gyro Ooh that one's rough.
oh and make sure you use Technician spec with the laser attachment underbarrel.
it pulses the enemy.

[thorny talon]

any guides for countdown like tips or tricks to maximise loot and general gameplay mechanics?

[wanton gyro]

i havent completely gotten that yet, im still new and barely have any of those done

[kind ridge]

I was fooled by the numers of Division 2 gaved to upgrade from expertise 15 to 16. The number reduced from ?/200 to ?/140. Donate one piece of duplicate to get one point. Donate 200 pieces of duplicates to get one expertise level. I was happy that I only need to donate 140 pieces of duplicates to get one expertise level. Division 2 played a dirty trick. To upgrade from level 15 to 16, I need to donate 2 pieces of duplicates to get one point, 280 pieces of duplicates to get one expertise level. The actual numers should be ?/280, not ?/140. What a dirty trick.

[wide lotus]

so

[hybrid ore]

Doing daily Bounties that reward bonus points will help a lot in that.

[wide lotus]

whats the plan tomm apparel event ,fixes ,wht? anything?

[wanton gyro]

ty

[wide lotus]

A patch for the dmg bug?

[hybrid ore]

Apparel Events are just cosmetic drops as you level your SHD up.
Outside of that, you'll have to wait for patch notes, assuming there are other changes being rolled out.

[spring narwhal]

FAL is a SMG?

[reef reef]

FAL is an AR

[spring narwhal]

right, but i swear this game just gave me a SMG FAL

[thorny talon]

how

[reef reef]

i really dont think it did but go off i guess

[spring narwhal]

I was confused nvm

the 3 bullets for the ammo type did me a confuse

[reef reef]

lmao

[wide lotus]

arent u in a xda ? and a few other discords? i have seen u before

[thorny talon]

yes

[wide condor]

hmm Chill Out mask drops with target loot, interesting

[azure lintel]

Read your message 5 times and I get what you're saying now 😂 Yes, it is unfortunate. It's probably to make the last part of the grind to 20 a bit longer

[thorny talon]

nice i missed it and can finally farm now

[spring narwhal]

I still dont understand what the chill out mask is, I just watched a youtube video about it and everything.

[wide condor]

dropped via target loot set to mask btw

the mask has 2 mod slots

[azure lintel]

For anyone wondering where Mr. Viktor here was getting his numbers from: https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/975603210075123722/975608721575125023/unknown.png (credit to ItsAstro_)

You need less proficiency ranks after 15 but apparently donations get nerfed? Like you have to donate twice the amount for it to cost 1 point. From what I understand

[potent chasm]

Fairview Crew opens on the 2nd of June right?

[thorny talon]

after maintainence today

[potent chasm]

Cool, cause I saw the timer and was a bit confused

[obtuse sequoia]

bruh why did they change the AR for kingbreaker? and why is my proficiency rank in my gearsets 1 when it was 3?

[plain plume]

anyone else not having kelso show up for the second key?

[azure lintel]

They fixed the AR model for Kingbreaker to the one it was supposed to be

The model itself still sucks on attachments, unfortunately

[obtuse sequoia]

and for the gearset levels? like 3% extra armour? my gearsets were all 3 until it went back to 1…

[reef reef]

Your expertise rank was bugged, you had gotten too much expertise progress from leveling your guns and armor. You were set to the correct level.

[plain plume]

just finished the manhunt target, and i can't find kelso to turn in the key?

[obtuse sequoia]

I was only in expertise 3 tho, it wasnt that big but if the developers decided to do that than alright.

[lilac elbow]

Excuse me, do we have a moderator here?

[reef reef]

You werent that far in, but you were still bugged.

Whats up?

[lilac elbow]

Countdown seems broken, I crashed many times already

I played open-world and any other (summits, missions) all seems okay but countdown

[reef reef]

Mods dont have any control over the game. We just mod this discord server. Message the devs on their forums specifically, and let them know of your issue.

[lilac elbow]

I want to know, am I the only one having this issue? this only seemed to happen after the update, all is good before

[reef reef]

You'll have to ask others.

[lilac elbow]

Aww man

[timber hatch]

Crashing is a very common issue, massive is well aware. It's just a matter of if they can figure out a solution....

[azure lintel]

It's quite a prevalent issue, both for 15 and 15.1

Back in 15, I couldn't even finish a single countdown before crashing, now I can finish most and see others either crashing or getting a delta instead

[lilac elbow]

Eh crashing everytime on countdown is not common like I haven't finished a single countdown yet, I seem to crash in the middle of finishing or the hunter part

10 games straight crash

[timber hatch]

Finishing as in the loading screen bugs out?

[lilac elbow]

Does reinstalling the game fix the issue though? I really need to farm stuff and this is preventing me from doing so 😭

Returns me to desktop mode and black screen

Can only close the game in task manager by end tasking the game

[reef reef]

Hold esc after you black screen at the end.

[lilac elbow]

I only encounter this crash in countdown but others no

[reef reef]

Seems to fix it for some, see if that fixes it.

[lilac elbow]

Alright, I'll test it out later

[shell fox]

This game still poppin?

[reef reef]

Relatively.

[tacit crescent]

So... have they revamped Specializations... again... yet?

Cuz there has been no talk of it since their "intelligence annex: specialization revamp"

[grave tulip]

is this game still worth playing trying to get back into it

[tacit crescent]

Would wait until the specializations are actually revamped imo. Would love an answer to the question XD

[grave tulip]

I meant is it pouplar

I like the game find it fun

[fleet pewter]

The mop doesn't have a perfect talent even though its named

That's strange

[tacit crescent]

Oh... I mean... it's still got plenty of players, sure.

[grave tulip]

bet

I need people to play it with

[copper oar]

When Music Volume is set to 0, I expect no music to be playing. So then why does Celebration Hotel still play X-Mas music when music is at volume 0?

[grave tulip]

lol

[scenic linden]

anyone else having some wierd things visuals wise? everything looks dull and fuzzy on my end

[grave tulip]

nah

Im on ps4 though

[fleet pewter]

Just saw a shd level 1222 running the least effective heartbreaker loadout I've ever seen

[grave tulip]

what was the loadout

[hollow lynx]

not all named items have "perfect" talents. some have a stat that is not typically on them

[tacit crescent]

Alright, logging into the game has given me the answer to my question: "No they have not revamped Specializations... again... yet"

Funny how Expertise was talked about in the November annex and is out, yet the Specs were in October and we've heard nothing... :/

[fleet pewter]

They were running a hb and a dare, some random chestpeice instead of the normal one, the remote scanner and the decoy, and a catharsis which is alright
They were also running demo for some reason?
It would probably still work I guess

[fleet pewter]

God I wish this game had a fandom like borderlands
Getting stats would be so much easier
I think it has a little armour on kill

[grave tulip]

yeah fuck fandom is useful

[reef reef]

we

we have the spreadsheet

spreadsheet has everything gear related on it

[keen osprey]

It's apparel day 👀 I'm excited like a child on Christmas morning.

[grave tulip]

lol yeah it will be cool

[fleet pewter]

What is it for?

[keen osprey]

It's called fair view crew which will be based on the power plant

[fleet pewter]

Oh

I need a nuke suit

[keen osprey]

Gas masks haz suits

Yeah there's one coming all silver

[grave tulip]

thats what I want my charvter to look like

its going to be fucking cool

[vapid crypt]

Can't wait, although I think I'm more excited for the upcoming apparel event in 4w

[fleet pewter]

I have a feeling everyone is going to look like that in a day or tao

[grave tulip]

lol

[vapid crypt]

Hey, if we're in a power plant I expect some safety precautions to be taken

[fleet pewter]

I will be wearing my lead lined Santa hat

[keen osprey]

https://youtu.be/LaB-_63xogk you can see the hazmat suit at 1:19:57

[grave tulip]

my charcter right now looks like hes from miami

[fleet pewter]

So a crackhead

[grave tulip]

lol

no he has like the clothing you would find on the stores of miami

[keen osprey]

Let me guess, heatwave apparel items? Apparently everyone hated those according to the devs on twitter recently lol.. I for one still enjoy mixing and matching with it all.

The scuba mask and wet suit outfit are questionable though.

[grave tulip]

i havent played this game since 2 years ago

just now getting back into it

[keen osprey]

That would explain it

[fleet pewter]

I quit on occasion

[grave tulip]

I was in the hospital

[keen osprey]

https://www.ubisoft.com/no-no/game/the-division/the-division-2/news-updates/38Wuz24cXEIbZtJflUYugK/apparel-event-3-heat-wave

[fleet pewter]

I believe last time was 4 months because I got killed by a sniper war hound at the end of a legendary mission

[vapid crypt]

Capitol I'm guessing?

[keen osprey]

Chances of getting the big horn: 0%

Sorry not sorry 😆

[vapid crypt]

Pretty much 😂

[fast harness]

I have the big horn

[keen osprey]

It's an awful weapon tbf

[fast harness]

Mh, I like it because it's an aug dmr

[vapid crypt]

I ended up joining a low SHD level for his first Legendary, ended up getting it for him at the end. Definitely had to let him know that he was pretty lucky

[fast harness]

I like AUGs but big horn piqued my interest

[vapid crypt]

It's a fun weapon to show off and test with imo

[fast harness]

The dmr part is where it comes in handy

[fast harness]

Each time I take out my own outfit with the gun I feel like I'm showing off

My main focus rn is trying to find a tkb

My dumbass deleted the one I was optimizing

[vapid crypt]

I just want a red rolled Emperor's honestly, but trying to get it is like trying to get a 13% PfE lmao

[fast harness]

So I need a aug cqb and a tkb

Emperor?

[vapid crypt]

Emperor's Guard (might not be guard idk), they're kneepads that come with Armor Regen as a attribute

[tight ermine]

And that my dear friends. Is why you always mark what you need as favorite.

[fleet pewter]

I got a god roll Aug a3, is that any good?
Future perfect btw

[vapid crypt]

For a skill build it wouldn't be bad

[fast harness]

I forgot.

[fleet pewter]

You forgor 💀

[fast harness]

Like dude I'm lucky I'm not pissed off rn because earlier I hit my computer over bs

[tight ermine]

Just rember to favorite next time.

[grave tulip]

get an ssd

I never hit my pc over rage

I care to much about my pc and ps4

[fleet pewter]

I got a punching bag

[grave tulip]

same

[fleet pewter]

Ufc has me hitting the bag In real life more than the game

[grave tulip]

but i dont rage over games

I just accept it

[tight ermine]

My rage gets directed at the wall in front of my feet.

[fleet pewter]

I either experience sad defeat or just anger

[tight ermine]

This isn't even a joke. I have a hole in my wall at this point.

[grave tulip]

Like when I die in cod I just laugh it off

[tight ermine]

You could probably fit a whole person in there.

[fleet pewter]

Like I deleted black ops 4 within an hour of installing it

Free game lol
