[oblique drum]

Same, one of my clannies had that same issue.

We played rock paper scissors, they won. Darn.

The hardest part of builds is realizing whose build advice to...avoid like a plague

[frosty skiff]

Its been like since the TU15 drop, most of my clanmates experience crashing delta or force close game

[hybrid ore]

luckily it's not Countdown in particular that's crashing, it's just the game.
and hopefully that gets sorted out very soon.

[frosty skiff]

Yes yes yes, i hope they fix it sooner but no later xD

[oblique drum]

We all hope they do, and they know theres a problem and that we want it fixed. Not much more one can do

Except maybe sending the Devs cookies and Redbull/monster, or coffee.

Welp, something just updated for Div2...hrm

[lilac shuttle]

I saw an update, any new ?

[oblique drum]

Not seeing anything posted yet. They did say 3 hrs total so im not sure if they are done now or..not.

[frosty skiff]

Its only 1 hour i think, there's still 2 hours more

[vale ledge]

2nd maintenance this week?

[safe wraith]

ppl who don't play the game and don't actively know the topic but still wanna force themselves into answering

[oblique drum]

They seem to play but their builds are basic and all CopyPasta. They..work, usually, but also they arent ideal. Like that spreadsheet mention really goes into alot of explanation on builds and thats great and informative

[safe wraith]

99% of build advice is copypasta

[oblique drum]

True. Love my current build, never seen anything like it. Saw a SHD18K with it and was all "Whats this weirdness" and yeh. Its...dumb, so very hilariously dumb and wonderful.

[rich shadow]

got a pic?

[oblique drum]

Id love to hop on and get you one...oh..wait...lol

[rich shadow]

whats the build?

[oblique drum]

Zero Fs Chest, Ammo Dump Holster, UG Mask, Memento, Gila Hands, Fox Knees. Run with a M1A CQB or Classic and a Shotgun (M870 or Scorpio or Mop)

Mix match of blue/red cores. End up with about 2.2M Armor, CHD/CHC on everything.

M1A Runs boomerang btw.

Shield and Decoy

And survivalist spec.

It works well and its enjoyable.
Like im sure a tuned HB build might be able to push out more DPS; but i get so bored of those that I wanted something..different.

End result is about 55% CHC on both Shotgun & Rifle. 2.2M Armor (doubled due to Zero Fs), about 4M on Shield. Decoy helps alot surprisingly. And when that M1A Boomerang goes off, lawlski.

[hybrid ore]

What's the CHD?

[rich shadow]

nice

[oblique drum]

IIRC 115-135% range; cant remember. All gear mods are CHD. CHD on all pieces.

[rich shadow]

only thing I'd suggest is a belstone piece to replace the ammo dump

or maybe a ceska chest with unbreakable

for more crit

[oblique drum]

Ammo dump and Zero F are same brand set; their 2 piece is 5% More Armor. Think theres like 3 of those in the build.

[rich shadow]

you dont need more armour, since those bonuses dont buff your shield

[oblique drum]

Eh it works, but i see whatcha mean about the Ceska; but probably a grupo instead as im sitting compfy at 55% CHC.

[rich shadow]

same difference really, if you have more crit chance cos ceska, then you can roll more damage elswhere

[fervent berry]

A Belstone with that armour regen may make that tastier

Quite surprised nobody said anything about that one piece Uzina despite the bonus armour

[tender wave]

Yeah, 1% armour regen is an extra 5% armour every 5 seconds, unless you're full

[rich shadow]

i'd lose the Gila and Uzina, replace with ceska and grupo

[fervent berry]

By the way, for the Xbox folks looking to score on WONY or the ultimate edition, yadah yadah, there's a sale going on now in the store that ends on Friday this week. Get 'em while they're hot.

[oblique drum]

Oo. Nice.

Alright, im out, good chat, take care yall.

[civic spruce]

Anyone has a link to the patch for today?

[oblique drum]

none posted yet. when they are; they should be here https://discussions.ubisoft.com/category/643/maintenance-notes?lang=en-US

[civic rune]

first time that they dont posted maintenance notes!!!! What is going on ?

[fervent berry]

#server-status

Hoping less than two hours to go for maintenance.

[civic rune]

[COMPLETED] Maintenance - June 9th, 2022 [Updated - June 9th, 2022, 14:00PM CEST]

is from 14 d

[fervent berry]

There's the latest post from yesterday, do you not see it?

[plush otter]

this isnt the first time that the notes come during or after the maintenance, it happens allot

[civic rune]

on forum is no Maintenance Notes!!!!!!!!

[tender wave]

Maintenance is just maintenance, not necessarily a patch: there may not be any notes

[plush otter]

literally the last one didnt have notes till the maintenance was almost over, and it wasnt even complete at that point

[wide condor]

doesnt have to be any fixes, this can just be regular server maintenance

[elfin hazel]

normally I'd agree but there was some kind of patch

[full zinc]

Yeah small one

I bet its improved load times

[plush otter]

yeah, this one is most likely for a patch, mostly based of of the day delay from the normal schedule, but kettle is rigth aswell that that is not always the case

[tender wave]

Bet it's fixed all the crashing for everyone, forever

[plush otter]

and gives everyone kittens

godroll kittens

[wide condor]

hmm so when launching the game, it does deffo start faster and no more snowdrop logo freezing for 2 seconds, so that part deffo is "fixed"

[elfin hazel]

real

all glitches and bugs gone forever

they just overwrote the game with div1

[fervent berry]

Added Survival as a token of apology

[full zinc]

Lol

[plush otter]

the part that was causing the long wait, is that it took forever to get into your account and get your save, that database is prolly offline now anyway, so it goes fast into the error, this isnt a indication of how it will be, but hopefully they did fix it

[frosty skiff]

Turning the server off for 3 hours, continue playing candy crush, after its done turning the server on, release patchnote, we fix some problem, done

[wide condor]

that is another issue, the issue we had since last patch is that the game launched very slowly after eac screen to actual game screen appearing with seizure warning etc

[tender dome]

Why’s the servers down lol

[wide condor]

because #server-status message maintenance

[open comet]

Maybe Yannick is finally banning the cheaters

[wide condor]

yeah those shotgun npc snipers deffo need a ban xd

[stiff bridge]

how long have the servers been down?

[fickle osprey]

ban the hunter shotgun doing 14 quintillion damage at 2500m

[faint geyser]

about, 2hrs now

more or less

[stiff bridge]

ok thankyou

[plush otter]

oh, you are right, that initial EAC isnt hanging up and slowing everything down now, thats a hopefull sign

[azure lintel]

division 2 moments

[full zinc]

looks like its loading

[lilac shuttle]

And maybe the eac keep this game crashing

[full zinc]

game is up

[elfin hazel]

that was quick

def loaded faster

[thorny talon]

Yeh gotta agree hunters are actually the worst design among the NPC.

[full zinc]

yep. someone forgot a line last time

[outer grove]

did the maintenance fix the abysmal load time?

[elfin hazel]

seems like it

[full zinc]

possibly. i loaded quicker

[thorny talon]

They better fix the unable to donate key despite completing the manhunt

[elfin hazel]

I think the current "fix" for that is still log out log back in

if you're talking about the 4th key stuff though yeah thats still here

well there it is

#division-tweets

[thorny talon]

For me its 3 rd key chang is dead but i cant give key

Relog doesnt work for me

[torn dove]

i had to reset the manhunt and do it all over again ... gl!

[elfin hazel]

yeah then the only fix there is probably just reseting the manhunt

[thorny talon]

Heck no id rather wait for the devs fix their spaghetti code

[elfin hazel]

I mean you could just set the world difficulty to normal

its not like any of the things you have to do are hard or really time consuming

[torn dove]

they fixed the loading time for me, amazing

[thorny talon]

What if it still bugs out after resetting manhunt

[boreal apex]

patch notes added https://twitter.com/TheDivisionGame/status/1539542338619510788

[elfin hazel]

well if it bugs out then you can try to relog but itd be better to not worry about that unless it happens

[boreal apex]

slow load fix. LETS GO! ?

[elfin hazel]

you're probably going to be waiting way longer for it to be fixed than it'd take to do it like 2-3 times on normal

[thorny talon]

Cant take my chances on incompetance by msv

[elfin hazel]

ok then have fun waiting a few weeks ig

[earnest hornet]

"[PC] Added a patch that should fix the slow loading time issue."
Works fine here - thanks team 👍

[tender dome]

So they finally took the chill out mask out

[tropic compass]

Pc load times hopefully makes GeForce now load faster

Instead of sitting on black screen for 5 mins then refreshes login

[fickle osprey]

inb4 no hunter 14 quintillion damage shotgun nerf

wonky ass damage profiles, absurd armor capacity

[wide condor]

one day they'll also fix it where the game doesnt target a random thing on the map when fast travelling somewehre XD

[frosty skiff]

Nice on fixing the slow loading, good job devteam, now focus on fixing crashing and delta, i have high hope for you guys

[polar chasm]

Can the devs please change the launcher so if i click update the game wont launch automatic after its done, this is so annoying

[proud basin]

Did they Fix the dmg glitch and Special Weapon dmg from Expertise on all Weapons?

[faint geyser]

they fixed the slow loading so you can crash faster while ingame xD

[maiden belfry]

It'll never move away from ubisoft connect and you know

[polar chasm]

i mean not moving away from the launcher, but changing so if i click update the game ONLY updates and not launch it right after it

[desert crystal]

Is they a client update as well today then

[wide condor]

for div2? yeah, mine did update automatically tho

only noticed it when someone mentioned it here

[desert crystal]

are the intro screens back to normal

[wide condor]

yeah that part is fixed

[desert crystal]

oh so it wont stutter anymore like it has been doing

[wide condor]

so from nearly 4 minutes back to under a minute to get ingame to a character

[desert crystal]

thats good then

[polar chasm]

i never understood why they wont allow the intro`s to be skipped also, or at least have an option to turn it off in the settings

[minor dove]

it's possible the into screens might be a secret loading screen

[desert crystal]

wouldn’t it speed it up again if you could turn the intros off

[polar chasm]

so a secret loading screen for the loading screen for character selection?!?

[wide condor]

you mean like poe tried with removing loading screen stuff and end result was that it took longer to get into game to a playable state? XD

[signal marten]

Nah

[minor dove]

it could be

[desert crystal]

is this client update only for pc

[wide condor]

[PC] Added a patch that should fix the slow loading time issue.

specifically mentions that, so i presume so, rest can be done server side

[bitter moth]

are the servers up now?

[desert crystal]

oh so they didn’t fix the console version takeing for ever then because my pc version has allways been faster to load than my console version has

[wide condor]

for about 2hours now almost yes

[tropic compass]

Why cant the source code for the game be leaked so we can find ways to add cross play/save ourselves

Cause if ubisoft don't wanna let the community do it for free

[desert crystal]

because everything is saved to the server but the map and settings

[tropic compass]

Then i sure hope a backend dev doesnt accidentally releases the code on git

[wide condor]

that has nothing to do with crossplay

(where data is saved that is)

[desert crystal]

How doesn’t it

[tropic compass]

When they reworked/ implemented Ubisoft connect they could've also added cross play but no

[desert crystal]

i thougjt you could allready do pc and stadia anyway

[wide condor]

you can yeah

[tropic compass]

I guess cause stadia is counted as pc?

[desert crystal]

dose stadia not count as cross play then

[tropic compass]

Uses same framework as pc's

[wide condor]

nah but am sure that xbox/playstation has reason to keep crossplay away from pc (part cheating/closed ecosystem) and keep them on their platform

[tropic compass]

Yes if you count it as a different platform
No if its got the same framework as pc

[tropic compass]

Battle royale games would highly disagree

[desert crystal]

so dose stadia class as a cloud gaming pc then

[wide condor]

yes stadia is cloud based, like the geforce now thing

[plush otter]

stadia uses its own player database, that also why you get a hastag with four numbers when someone from stadia talks in chat, the most likely reason that that did get crossplay, is that alphabet paid for it, either in money or co-advertising.

[desert crystal]

i new that

[tropic compass]

I guess unless you have the stadia console

[plush otter]

but trying to get pc and console database merged seems like a recipe for disaster, as they have stated themselves aswell as the reason for them not considering crossplay

[wide condor]

what console? some kinda glorified chromecast box?

[plush otter]

on a sidenote, cloud gaming isnt PC, by the definition of personal computer, cloud gaming is basically the opposite

[tropic compass]

My mistake then. The physical thing is a controller

[desert crystal]

What do you mean by opasite

[plush otter]

its public computer basically, it does run a modified version of the codebase, that probably closest to the pc code, so i get calling it pc

[polar chasm]

its more like mobile gaming then PC gaming

[desert crystal]

oh you mean you only basically own whats run on it

[wide condor]

yeah all you got was a controller a chromecast thing and some charger cable

[vale ledge]

Sigh... No more chilled mask

[oblique pine]

wait what?

[desert crystal]

No they removed it today

[oblique pine]

they did -_-?

i think i deleted them all yesterday..

[desert crystal]

Yes they did

i asuming you can still use it if you got it before they removed it

[wide condor]

its only the drop part thats removed, they didnt actually delete the mask

[misty jungle]

is servers up?

[wide condor]

yep , maintenance finished about 2hrs ago

[desert crystal]

so you can nologee get it then

[cold parcel]

ehm

i just gave the third key and nothing happened

and I cant give it again

is that right?

[faint geyser]

whats the name of that backpack again with vigilance? iirc theres a named version of it too

[faint geyser]

ive seen people talk about this bug, others say you need to reset the manhunt and pray it doesnt happen again

[cold parcel]

wtf

[faint geyser]

i might be wrong tho, i guess wait for others to reply to your question..

[cold parcel]

ye thanks

I mean I will definitely not do that again after my game crashed 5 times during the 3rd target missions xd

so the mission is still on my map

but kelso is gone

[cobalt grove]

The gift

[earnest hornet]

Yea true, already crashed 3 times within the last 2 hours but hey we getting there 😄

[desert crystal]

I found updateing the EAC helped mine

[wide condor]

eac updates itself every time you launch an eac title tho

[bleak crow]

CTD got worse after today’s patch

[desert crystal]

How do you mean

[wide condor]

eac checks for updates every time any eac title starts and updates itself

thats what the eac loading screen part is for

[desert crystal]

You mean the desktop splash screen

[wide condor]

thats the eac loading screen yeah, pretty much every eac title has that

[desert crystal]

Is the one on the eac site just a generic one then

[wide condor]

all it really does it update the easyanticheat exe/system driver and loads it and then does its thing

[dull blaze]

Any patch notes?

[wide condor]

yeah #server-status message

[stiff bridge]

why am I seeing a bunch of new names in the dz chat but I dont actually see the people?
it feels like im watching another region chat

[slender laurel]

Goodmorning fellow Agents.

[hybrid ore]

Good morning.

[slender laurel]

At least they fixed the slow loading screen times.

Because, if I remember correctly, For me it took 5 minutes to connect to the division 2 servers

Wait what. qwq

[torn dust]

I see they removed Chill Out from general loot pool

[slender laurel]

Well, I already got it yesterday before they removed it. 😂

[torn dust]

Yea, I saved one back when I got one from countdown

[hybrid ore]

It was always a glitch to be in there outside of Christmas, I'm sure most people were smart enough to farm out at least 1 copy.

[slender laurel]

I haven't played countdown, Nor the two raids.

[hybrid ore]

Countdown is actually very easy to get into, matchmaking takes about 10 seconds during the busiest times.

[slender laurel]

I already have WONY lol.

[hybrid ore]

and it has selectable Targeted Loot.
it's basically fast Summit.

[torn dust]

Countdown takes like little over 15 mins to complete. For the sort amount of time you do get a lot of loot.

I got a few exotics yesterday from countdown

[slender laurel]

But I need a better build.

[torn dust]

I found a build I really like.

[slender laurel]

All I'm running is Heartbreaker with damage and armor.

[torn dust]

works quite well

[hybrid ore]

Heartbreaker is incredibly powerful, even with the balancing changes.

[spark verge]

is the random crash been fixed yet???

[wide condor]

ofc not

[cold parcel]

sorry that I interrupt, but can anyone help me guys

kelso is gone after I restarted my game

and the mission is still there

[spark verge]

really annoying the random crash,i get 2 to 3 crashes everytime🥲

[slender laurel]

They'll fix it on TU16, which its a long way ahead.

[red hearth]

there will be no 16 patch. they will close the game very soon

[slender laurel]

.-.

[haughty summit]

so pessimistic suddenly lah lmao

[haughty summit]

also sorry to break your bubble but try to lower your expectation a bit

[slender laurel]

Alright, Imma play countdown for first time.

[haughty summit]

just be wary of the hunter. they sting lmao

[low nebula]

how can i report cheater? just press name and report that it?

[hybrid ore]

Either by that method ingame, or by using this link: https://www.ubisoft.com/en-gb/help/the-division-2/article/reporting-a-player-in-the-division-2/000060920

[torn dust]

cheating in D2. lol

[slender laurel]

That was a fast gamemode.

I got tons of loot- and it crashed..

[wide condor]

could be worse, camera/character turning borken halfway taking a cp, (like press w and it moves at a 90 degree angle), and then also get rogues at the end, on heroic all dirs

[oblique pine]

its very normal... have you been in dz?

[wide condor]

somehow made it

[low nebula]

thanks. his killing everyone in darkzone.

[slender laurel]

Remember when the Classic M1A was meta?

[inner mason]

was the dmg glitch fixed or nah?

[slender laurel]

Wow I got a maxxed stat LVOA C.

Maxxed rifle damage and crit damage.

[low nebula]

[slender laurel]

Swap speed i dont care.

[hybrid ore]

It still kinda is.

[desert crystal]

Ive got crit and weapon damage and armour

[spiral ledge]

Was hoping to see a fix to the dmg glitch with this random maintenance on a Wednesday. But no, removal of the Chill Out Mask that shouldn’t been in the loot pool in the first place is more important

[desert crystal]

how was it random maintinace

[spiral ledge]

It’s Wednesday, that’s the random part

[winter hawk]

Is the Dark Zone Blackout Hijack still obtainable?

[desert crystal]

The dz gave me level 1000 yesterday

there was some one with lower crit than me and they still got me down

I still wish they did a dz where its pve

[spiral ledge]

So I must ask you, why? Why would you go to a non pvp dz when you have rest of the map doing the same thing, killing npc

[desert crystal]

Well i like the dz just not the outher people in it

[crisp panther]

do you quiet times of day when the servers are less populated?

[desert crystal]

wpuld they be less chance of people in it

[crisp panther]

6am UK time, most USA asleep.

[frozen meadow]

what

im in the us i aint asleep

its 9:34am

[spiral ledge]

For me it’s like saying, i want summit to be as good as countdown because I like it more in summit. But personal preference I guess

[frozen meadow]

i hate summit simply put

you can clear it just by sitting with a turret

[crisp panther]

yeah well it isnt 6am UK right now either.

[desert crystal]

No its 2:40 pm

[crisp panther]

I havent done countdown yet, im worried about my skills and build getting laughed at.

I understand countdown is soloable with the right builds

or at least hunter farming.

[tender wave]

Solo countdown is a challenge for expert players, not something many people bother with. Just matchmake, you'll be fine as long as you don't bring a skill build

People won't even notice your gameplay skills since everyone just piles in together and burns down all the enemies

[crisp panther]

skill build has been my goto since hard wired dropped in an update.

[tender wave]

Even if it goes badly and you can't extract, you still get to walk away with a ton of loot

[frozen meadow]

i pissed someone off in countdown last round when he said dont do vip hes a pig and i said just like you if you dont shut up

[tender wave]

Put together a red dps build, hunters will hack your skills and use them against you

[frozen meadow]

my god these damned bees keep running into my window

fuckin hell

[crisp panther]

yeah id have to farm some the 3 red gear sets, or work 3 more improvised - chest, bag and mask.

[crisp panther]

detonate the hive equipped on your windowsill?

[frozen meadow]

There isn't a hive that's the weird thing

They are carpenter bees and I'm on the second floor in a house made of brick

[crisp panther]

jk.

keep windows closed you'll be fine. check timber in roof space overnight if possible

[fervent berry]

1 Countdown game, 3 Lady Death SMGs rewarded.
Oh I wish I had this luck when Chill Out was still in the general loot pool. 😂

[novel moat]

Will you be able to move grenades around from specializations ?

[grizzled sorrel]

division 2 crashes a lot

[slender laurel]

Is Eclipse Protocol good?

[hallow garden]

Yea

[worthy zodiac]

Am I missing out by not getting chill out mask before

[tender notch]

np, itll be back next patch 🤣

[worthy zodiac]

Lol fair enough

[ripe jackal]

Looking for afew people to join our crew ps?

[tropic compass]

Regulus project resets daily??

[tender notch]

wrong channel, please use the clan recruit channel for that @ripe jackal

no, its weekly at raid reset day @tropic compass (also same day and time vendors reset)

[ripe jackal]

Okay sorry @tender notch

I didn’t realise 🙂

[tropic compass]

Ohh so that's why I keep getting the project?!?

[lilac elbow]

Is there no way for japanese voice?

I check ubisoft > division settings, only 2 language appear, english and china

[vale ledge]

sigh... faye lau keys issue again, thought they fixed that

[tender wave]

I don't know what it is about these manhunt true sons (not just the targets, all the support too) but as well as being mad keen on flanking, they also only have a 50/50 chance of falling for my decoy. Makes life much more difficult

[fiery cloud]

Hey AZ,Zephyr, Kettle

[fervent berry]

what uppp?

[fervent berry]

that's top tier AI for ye

[hybrid ore]

They based the programming off me.

[tender wave]

it's bloody annoying is what it is. I know everyone always says 'why don't they increase difficulty by improving the ai instead of the sponge' but as a HH sniper, the sponge makes very little difference to me compared to the ai

hey saph

[tender wave]

argh wtf

get all the way to Chang, careful & slow, clear all his adds, then my character suddenly decides they're just going to start firing nonstop and step out of cover

[desert crystal]

dose running a mission as heroic make a diffrence to weather you get the nemmisis blueprint or not

[haughty summit]

For exotic blueprints nah

[desert crystal]

oh so it was probly just luck it droped then

[haughty summit]

If you have 2 parts minimum blueprint is going to drop iirc

Maybe it's different now

[desert crystal]

any one found the game smother since todays update

[rare igloo]

ive been trying to farm lady death for the past 3 days and ive had no luck on the named bosses

i go to the spot where it says there at but there never there

is there anything im doing wrong ?

[desert crystal]

no

mine just mostly drop from exotic caches

[rare igloo]

so should i jus farm exotic caches instead of new york ?

[desert crystal]

not sure i would say whitch ever is easyest

[rare igloo]

ok thank you

[vapid breach]

It was a guaranteed drop no matter the difficulty, you could have run it on normal and got it. I did mine on challenging yesterday.

[desert crystal]

oh so the dificulty doesnt make a diffrentces to if somethings going to drop then

[haughty summit]

Target loot as well

[vapid breach]

I personally farm countdown with great success on exotics. My friend however never gets them so proceed at your own risk

[rare igloo]

you can farm lady death with targeted loot ?

[vapid breach]

If it’s a guaranteed drop like an exotic blueprint (I follow guides so I know when it’s guaranteed) no the difficulty doesn’t matter

[desert crystal]

any one found the game use 20% less memory after todays update

[vapid breach]

If the target is sub machine, you have a much higher chance of getting an exotic sub if something exotic drops

[haughty summit]

Yep including imperial dynasty, bullet king, and one more that I'm forgetting

Also ninjabike and pestilence

[rare igloo]

yah ik but cant lady death only drop in new york ?

[haughty summit]

Nah it's changed

[rare igloo]

oh okay

[haughty summit]

Target loot weapon type for weapon, gear slot for gear exotics

[cobalt bone]

What was to tonights maintenance?

[tender wave]

notes are in #division-tweets

[desert crystal]

i did just realise the playstation version got no client patch

only my pc version did or is that because they was only fixing a pc specific issues

[astral gorge]

Hey guys , im trying to farm the named backpack Matador , but i cant get it , it is in the dropptable everywhere ?

[hybrid ore]

Matador is locked to the DZ, so DZ/conflict/Named Item Caches are your options for farming it.

[lilac elbow]

Do you even get the Nemesis in Countdown?

[winter hawk]

Is achievement Dark Zone Occupied Hijack still obtainable?

[hybrid ore]

Nemesis is locked to Projects until you obtain the Blueprint.

[lilac elbow]

How do you get it though?

I've always wanted Nemesis

[raw geyser]

😔 just had a 1 hour div session then the game decided to crash

[vale ledge]

no more grouping for the manhunt....

reset the manhunt campaign the 2nd time...

T_T

[glass raft]

im doing a cover fire lmg build, is there a backpack talent related to firing from cover?

[vale ledge]

resetting the manhunt also resets the blockade...

[vale ledge]

composure

[fervent berry]

Composure for sure

[glass raft]

what does it do?

[hybrid ore]

This should cover it https://www.gamesradar.com/au/division-2-nemesis-exotic-sniper-how-to-get-guide/

[fervent berry]

What @vale ledge said 😂

[vale ledge]

add damage when u in cover

[fervent berry]

I think it's 15% WD while in cover

[glass raft]

while in cover?

[vale ledge]

yep

[glass raft]

might be good

[fervent berry]

I pair it with Braced just because I'm a peanut

[vale ledge]

companion always overshadowed by vigilance

but still good

if you exclusively use scorpio tho, wicked is better

[rugged hatch]

Dang they fixed the 15 minute wait for the loading screen to start.

[vale ledge]

i think they rolled back something

[rare igloo]

can you get lady death from countdown ?

[vale ledge]

yes

[winter hawk]

You are very helpful

Is achievement Dark Zone Occupied Hijack still obtainable?

[native gate]

hey, just got to floor 10 to do the xp method for the first time, got oxi build. Now i just wanna know what difficulty + directives that are most effective

[winter hawk]

Please just answer that question

[rare igloo]

heroic difficulty and all directives if your solo you might wanna go challenging difficulty

[hybrid ore]

It's a strange question.
why would it not be available?

[winter hawk]

Cause there is no occupied dz

[tender notch]

there is always 1 that is occupied. the one with the dagger

also you already asked this question in #ask-td2-community please wait for someone to answer.

[winter hawk]

But no one is going to...

[hybrid ore]

You also asked in this very channel 20 minutes ago.

[winter hawk]

But ok

[hybrid ore]

In this case, the term "occupied" and "invaded" are the same.
Just go for the DZ with the knife, like Azur said.

[winter hawk]

Ok but it is not on my screen

Are there any requirements?

[tender notch]

being at end game.

so world tier 5 or level 40 iirc.

[winter hawk]

And thats the answer that i needed thank you!

[fierce raft]

Hey I'm a returning player builds and farming are kinda focusing

[vapid breach]

Countdown lobbies are really something else lately. Low DPS who don’t know what they are doing and keep running protect the VIP and running out of time for the main objective.

[gloomy lark]

Happens you get bad randos now and then

[polar chasm]

not really sure what you mean, so maybe ask that question in a different way might help

[fierce raft]

Basically I need help🤣🤣🤣

[vapid breach]

5 games straight now. Legit just told this team not to run protect the VIP and why, and they still all ran ACROSS the map to go run it. Spoiler: we had 2 minutes upon arrival for hacking the servers

[polar chasm]

(never did countdown before) so in other words just ignore the side mission in it then??

[vapid breach]

You are required to do 2/3 side missions before main objective. However, if protect the VIP is one of them, you really want to avoid it (if it’s reasonably possible) because it is the longest of the side missions by far.

If kill the hacked war hounds is one, you really want to run that one because it’s the shortest of the side missions (by far)

[gloomy lark]

Bad teams will struggle regardless

[remote lynx]

Hello was there an update today?

[unreal helm]

yip

[remote lynx]

a hotfix?

[wide condor]

minor update, fixed loading times, thats about it

[polar chasm]

ahh, got it, kill the dog and let the vip die ... check

[remote lynx]

oh nice

Were the loading times fixed?

[vapid breach]

They will struggle but at least 2 people can carry all the way through main objective with little issue if they are all there to be distractions for NPC

[gloomy lark]

I haven’t really been running countdown the xp is low

[polar chasm]

Hope my 4R/3B/2Y build with 80% PFE, is good enough for countdown, gonna go look for a group to do it for the first time shortly

[wide condor]

you would run countdown mostly for the loot to feed the hungry expertise machine, rest doesnt matter (well unless you enjoy the mode i guess)

[vapid breach]

I’d say I’m at 250+ runs of it, and I just people would listen and learn . Don’t care if you’re bad

[remote lynx]

Chillout still drop in countdown?

[gloomy lark]

I think so but you can’t target loot it’s random

[polar chasm]

didnt they remove chill-out from the lootpools? its the Christmas special mask

[gloomy lark]

I’d probably be doing more countdown but need more xp for the apparel event

[remote lynx]

They didnt

[wide condor]

they did remove it once, then next emergency maintenance it was back (or it was never really gone), and now its supposed to be gone

[remote lynx]

So they did remove it in today's hotfix?

[polar chasm]

glad that i have mine and like it alot especially for the extra 12% PFE mod

[wide condor]

idk, i cant read #server-status message

[gloomy lark]

13% is so rare it’s crazy

[polar chasm]

How long will it take before you are Expertise lvl 1, i am still lvl 0 and got 2 already proficient (1 GS and the Scorpio)

[gloomy lark]

Run different sets

And donate

[polar chasm]

so in other words, just donate, and grind

[gloomy lark]

Yea

Targeted loot helps

[polar chasm]

they really need to rework that system, but i got used to them making stuff that you need to grind Your A off and not thinking about the casual player

[polar chasm]

running my build with 3 improvised so no targeted loot for them, just material donate and xp grind

[gloomy lark]

Armor brands is pretty fast if you run like 4 pieces

[polar chasm]

yeah, but improvised are all seperate items (gloves, kneepads, holster etc)

[gloomy lark]

Yea

[polar chasm]

running now, 3 improvised, Zero F, chill-out and momento, so all are seperate

so no brand targeted loot grind for me 😦

[gloomy lark]

It helps in the long run when you finally get them proficient

[polar chasm]

thats true, but the way to it is a very long one

[remote lynx]

If i get a 13% PFE mod i think im gonna ask Massive to allow me to NFT it

lol

[polar chasm]

never got a 13% one, and i played more then 1500 total

think the PFE mods are bugged and 12% is max

[remote lynx]

i saw a youtuber getting one after many years playing Div 2

[gloomy lark]

Nah they’re just rare asf

[vale ledge]

i got a 13, at around 2300shd

[polar chasm]

well thats 1200 to go for me then

[vale ledge]

rng...

[late finch]

I have only got one and have played since release.

[polar chasm]

but then again RNGesus hates me so guess it will be over 9000SHD for me then

[remote lynx]

i still dont have full Critical chance mods lol

[wide condor]

i have those, but i have a few chd mods at 11,9% lol

[polar chasm]

think i have all mods at least once maxed except pfe

[wide condor]

but some mods for skills like decoy i get maxed ones all the time, i think i have 3 chars now with those maxed

[plush otter]

13% are rare, but not impossible
https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1vGlFHG-nA4AhLcgiuNS5wErnl65Ko97eE-aEnGVIzEE/edit

[remote lynx]

i have a couple of maxed ensnare mods are they worth keepin'?

[polar chasm]

i am glad i kept all my 12% pfe ones, now am using 7 of them in 1 build 🙂

[plush otter]

set summit to legendary and gearset targeted, and just run it for 6 weeks straight 😛

[wide condor]

for skills i keep one of each, gear mods i keep 3 of each

[remote lynx]

Can you get a maxed PFE at least once from that? if you run it for that amount of time?

i never saw a maxed mod sold by vendors

[polar chasm]

anyone found a drone slot mod for the artificer hive that works, never found one at all, not even sure if there is one for that slot at all

[plush otter]

thats how i got all of mine, not specifically in a straight up unbroken run, but overall i would guess about that much playtime on those setting, i have 11 now i think total

[dull blaze]

I got 1 13% and im shd 2100😂

[remote lynx]

Gratz Agent

[dark kraken]

there's really not much of a difference between 12% and 13%, tbh

there's less of a difference between 11.9% and 12% crit dmg

[wide condor]

its the ocd part of not having it maxed, similair with a weapon with a roll at 99,9%

[polar chasm]

at least with weapons you can recalibrate it

[plush otter]

its more that all 13% let you more easily go away from running survivalist as the spec for a pfe build, all 12% is 72% and that is just on the usable end for pfe, so most go durv to get it to 80 cap, but all 13 is 78 and then you can go firewall for a little group and personal dps boost

[dark kraken]

fair

[dark kraken]

... wait, i don't think the math adds up
you only have slots for 3 gear mods total (mask, chest armor, backpack), so the difference in maximum percentages is only 39% vs. 36%

[hybrid ore]

4 with Chill Out, might be a factor here, I'm not really paying attention.

[plush otter]

pfe builds use 3 improvised gear for the modslots, so 6 mods

[hybrid ore]

half right.
mark that down as a partial win for no caffeine.

[spiral mason]

evening

[hybrid ore]

Evening, Gamniac.
@plush otter I've never really seen the benefit in a pfe build, what's the main attraction of one?

[spiral mason]

i just got a short question. i played div 2 when warlords came out finished it and did some of these uuuh i think "seasons"?

my question is did they add new story stuff in div 2?

the shooter gameplay for me is mostly just a medium for a interesting story (hello mass effect) and im not much into grinding out the perfect build for endgame looter shooter things

[fallow galleon]

yesterday i finally beat the summit
was not expecting two goddamn hunters at the top

[hybrid ore]

As much as I enjoy the story in div2, it's not going to compare to something like Mass Effect. Not even close, really.
however, for what it is, it's a lot of fun. There's actually quite a lot of new Narrative, mostly associated with the "Seasons".

[polar chasm]

with a PFE build you can get 80% PFE so, legendary mission all elites and named do 80% less damage, so easier to survive even with a full red build

[spiral mason]

yeah im not expecting a uuuh "final fantasy 14 saga"

but i wanted to know if these "seasons" have even any story attached to them if the narrative the lore behind the shooter looter gameplay is developed

or if you just run around shooting everything

repeating same missiontypes over and over

with the simple narrative of "some baddies took this corner over please help us"

[hybrid ore]

I understand that part, but with that many other stats factored in, your other usefulness must suffer quite a lot.

[plush otter]

it makes any content where its all elites trivial, it makes rogue fight even with the worst pug team easy, also now for countdown where most of it is elite it makes it even more trivial

[hybrid ore]

Without spoiling anything: the story of the Seasons follows on directly from WONY and answers a lot of questions it asks.

[spiral mason]

i have to admit after playin xiv for so long i really got pampered and choosey 😂

that sounds nice

can i still finish up older seasons to experience these answers (without the seasons reward) or is only the active season available?

[hybrid ore]

So it makes already fairly simple content easier? That seems like an odd trade-off.
Wouldn't the lack of crit stats hurt it more than help, overall?

[hybrid ore]

Yep, you need to reach about Rank 70-ish in the Season Pass, and then you've permanently unlocked all of the "Manhunt" missions.
Make sure you play them in the following order: Tidal Basin > Roosevelt Island > Coney Island AP > Camp White Oak.

they even award you a new Skill each.

[spiral mason]

oh i uh unlocked most of the stuff

[ivory parrot]

do alot of people play div 2, thinking of downloading it again?

[spiral mason]

i think i even played a fair bit of the first season

i just stopped after it came to the point of "okay now its time for endgame grind"

since the looter shooter element is as i said just a medium for me to get the story told

[hybrid ore]

The story is mostly wallpaper compared to a proper narrative experience, but it's a fun kinda wallpaper, with kittens and flowers.

[polar chasm]

i am using the repair skill and armor regen on all in combination of artificer hive and shield, which gives good armor regen and repair skill also increased the artificer repair for the shield (63% per tick)

[hybrid ore]

More talking about DPS usefulness.
I suppose this is all talking about playing in a group, right?

[polar chasm]

i got a 80%pfe build even with 4 red and survival is pretty good

and i solo most thing (all on heroic at least)

[hybrid ore]

I guess I'll just try one at some point and see for myself.

[polar chasm]

i used the memento also to get the 2 extra attributes so my shield is also at least rank 5

[plush otter]

a full pfe can still deal decent dmg on its own, also i wouldnt call rogues and extract on countdown the easiest content, plenty of time that fails due to bad play or builds in pugs, a pfe can carry harder at those points than i could with a red

[vapid breach]

Thanks for this! Meant to look it up earlier

[hybrid ore]

No worries, that's what we're here for!
@mighty nova Try out #td2-clan-recruitment, you'll have some luck there.

[plush otter]

its well worth build to have in your arsenal, and you dont have to go all in on defence, especially if countdown focused, this is what ive been running in countdown allot lately, as it lets me just run interference during extract and focus the hunters down, makes the extract allot easier.
https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1y-BM5r-E7-HzurlsmUuXocPyWKmPdG6mN-avQQWqr9o/edit

although now i have it with 2 more red, for 4 red 2 blue total

still need to update that one

[polar chasm]

yep, the rogue/hunters that sometimes come in summit or after a CP clear are pretty easy for me on my pfe build, can just face tank with my shield/Artificer/scorpio and i wont die ... ofc you need to keep an eye on your surroundings

[wide condor]

you can have rogues in any mission also, like i had yesterday in bank invaded, however the door to the rogues room was locked, so had to wipe so didnt actually get to kill them, fortunately heroic gives you a checkpoint for them

[polar chasm]

most of the time if i die i die because of purples and not elites

[rugged hatch]

It's super annoying when you are doing a resource convoy and 2 enemies run all the way across the freaking city.

[proud locust]

Been following the bread crumbs of the story behind everything and well……I think it’s a set up

After putting a bullet or 40 against Chang and decrypting a third file of lau pieces are slowly unraveling and well…..schaeffer small chuckled when he mentioned that hunters are cryptic, creepy, quiet and puzzle creators.

[jolly summit]

Hi everyone !
I just join discord and I don't know use good.
I'm French, but I can talk English 😉.
Where or what I need do to do Raids ?

[zinc shadow]

#division-universe :)

[fervent berry]

Had a time when I was solo clearing a CP4 when an elite patrol and a resource convoy came crashing onto the same CP. The cream of the crop were the rogue agents that spawned after capturing the CP. Ah, good times.

[rugged hatch]

Yeah, that sounds fun honestly, better then having them all run all the way to foggy bottom from the dua.

[fervent berry]

There were a few enemies that chased me from the federal bunker all the way down to Space HQ. I had no idea why my compass was still red after I loaded outside the gate. Turned out the same enemies from the bunker teleported with me and I thought it was hilarious 😂

[plush otter]

if you are interested in pug groups for raids, in #lfg-raid-pc you can find people setting up groups for it

[tacit bear]

Any tricks to getting Bighorn?

[valid steppe]

does armor dmg and dmg ooc work for skill builds?

[karmic plinth]

Just picking the game back up after a long hiatus.. I've played through all the base game stuff, but zero of the New York content. I assume it's a safe idea to boost an agent and just enjoy the New York content, yeah?

[dark kraken]

do legendary missions and hope for the best

[azure lintel]

is there a fix for manhunt decryption key glitch or do i have to do all the manhunt again smh

[tacit bear]

Yeah def not geared for that. Do they still drop on floor 10? I have a checkpoint but haven't tried legendary yet

[wheat zinc]

Try fast travel to NY and back

[azure lintel]

thanks for you attention but it didnt fix i guess i have to do it again

[dark kraken]

summit does qualify for the bighorn

but, if you're not geared for legendary, floor 10 farming is likely to be as annoying as doing missions

[rugged hatch]

The freaking stupid unlimited medic boxes are dumb as hell, we get a limited amount of healing from our hive, drone, chem launcher yet they get an unlimited freaking medic box.

[tacit bear]

Yup just realized that. Getting my butt kicked hahaha

[fervent berry]

Each BT assault grunt carries one on their backs iirc and I'd usually focus them before they deploy those things.

What's more annoying, really, is their drone operator and their medics.

[azure lintel]

"Agents,

Today's maintenance will see these changes implemented:

Removed the 'Chill Out' mask from the general loot pool. Again."

[azure lintel]

Just kill em before place it down ez

[azure lintel]

Have you tried doing coney Island

[elder kite]

anyone else's game crash a lot on pc?

[azure lintel]

alr restarted the manhunt thanks for your concern

[forest vine]

Man, saw a small update and PC and was hoping it was the patch fixing the crash bug...nope, still crashing. RIP mission progress even if you were in a group.

[fickle osprey]

just like the drone people get infinite kamikaze drones and hunters doing absurd damage while having absurd armor capacity

[wide condor]

patch was for loading speed mostly

[fickle osprey]

or the GL bois infinitely spamming their triple GL nonsense

[wide condor]

game needs a baseball bat for melee weapon so we can swing the nades back, as we're dealing with mostly baseball/football players in terms of grenade throwing

[fervent berry]

Good lord, don't swing at a firebomb. That wooden bat is gonna get cooked 😂

By the way, M1A needs a bayonet attachment. Using a true murican build has never made me feel more amused. Classic M1A, M1928, and Liberty with a TP build. It's just yelling Murica in many octaves

[signal flicker]

Sorry to be annoying about this. But is the 3 hour maintenance done already? I thought it was scheduled for today ?

seems like they are saying it's completed.

@hollow arch

[boreal apex]

Tagging game devs will get you banned but yes it was over several hours ago

[reef reef]

Please reread the rules and do not ping Ubi staff or moderators.

[signal flicker]

ok sorry, I apologise for doing that.

[reef reef]

#server-status and people in general chat can tell you if the game is back up.

[signal flicker]

I don't really understand though, wasn't it scheduled for today? Did they do it early or is my timezone calculator broken?

[reef reef]

They did it about 12 hours ago.

ah, it finished about 12 hours ago.

[signal flicker]

Wednesday, 22nd June at 09:30 CEST to NZT is about 7:30pm NZT on the 23rd, which is in about 10 hours time.. Hence I am confused.

Happy, since it won't interrupt my usual scheduled gaming, but finding it hard to know when things will be down 🙂

[hushed hawk]

Pretty certain that it'd be 0730 on the same day but pm.

Since 0930 is am.

[signal flicker]

You are right, my mistake, misread the calculator.

[hushed hawk]

Perfectly fine

[wide condor]

in eu am/pm isnt really used, thats why you probably got it the other way around

[signal flicker]

No, it was just a comphrehension failure on my part. Usually, all dates in NZD are 1 day ahead of NZT, but after x time at night it's pretty much same.

there is a 19 hour time difference

for 19 hours the date would be different but for 5 it's the same 🙂

[hushed hawk]

Because there can never really be more than a 12 hour difference

[hushed hawk]

It depends. Colloquially, people seem to use the 12 hour format more often but formally, it's the 24 hour one.

[wide condor]

because i'm lazy i usually put in google "when is 03:30 AM EDT" and google tells me local time xD

[signal flicker]

tsxy: wow that's fantastic. I never knew you could do that! Thank you so much

[wide condor]

google can even do math for you :p

[signal flicker]

I knew that stuff

about the math

So, is it frowned upon to join a clan simply for the clan perks I assume?

[neat sedge]

huh I might have found a bug, I am able to equip level 40 skill mods on my skills on my level 31 character

[tender wave]

you can also recalibrate level 31 items (blue/purple/yellow ones, anyway) with level 40 rolls

[neat sedge]

I knew that, just didn't know skill mods

I have a set of level 31 gear all rolled with blue cores to speed run WoNY

[tender wave]

nor did I, tbf, but skill mods make a small enough difference that I don't think I'd bother in most circmstances

[neat sedge]

currently deleting my 2nd and 3rd character to change their models and just kind of happened upon it regearing them

[light trail]

where to get lots of crafting mats

[forest vine]

Ah, well I did notice that the load times were better and didn't hang, that's nice at least.

[fickle osprey]

i was playing the legendary capitol mission, and the final arena worked surprisingly well for a merciless setup

only if i had a regulus

[azure lintel]

anyone down to do Control Points LVL 4?

[tacit bear]

New York map

[alpine tiger]

Deleted main character by mistake how to restore it ?

[light trail]

you cant

[slender laurel]

It sucks that they didn't plan for Division 2 Survival, But Countdown is good because of the fast pacing nature of the gamemode.

And tons of loot..

[boreal apex]

contact support they can restore. Just make it sound believable and touch on their heartstrings that your toddler did it whilst you left your PC unattended

[slender laurel]

If its level 40, Very mega pain.

[humble cargo]

wait, whats this?!?!!? as soon as I launched the game it let me in D:

unpossible!

[remote lynx]

yes they released a small hotfix today

[humble cargo]

so I sees on subreddit.

yay!

[warped sandal]

Ayo did i get kicked from the server by any chance or?

Also good evening everyone

[unkempt berry]

Damn

[slender laurel]

I kind of feel glad that they removed the requirements to unlock weapon/gear talents.

[patent glacier]

thats unfortunate...

[civic spruce]

Why is my downtown west still has a red outline even though all control points are cleared?

[azure lintel]

What are the Legendary mode Chekpoints in Summit?

[fallow galleon]

the near sighted talent is awesome

on the police m4 it makes it a laser beam

[fickle osprey]

does anyone remember when exotics had holstered talents

was a fun time

[fallow galleon]

also been using the imperial dynasty holster which is sweet

[broken temple]

Anyone else think they should make an Outcast raid? I have an idea of what It could be…

[haughty summit]

ah yes when I can sustain while being a DPS

but i swear the gear bonuses were all over the place back then

[balmy cedar]

who the hell is dusk?

[fast cave]

a target from previous season

[wet igloo]

For the hard nails trophy does it have to be “every” mission or just the DC missions and strongholds?

[patent glacier]

will be missed.

[wet igloo]

I managed to find a weird a glitch to sound off the nemesis without the suppressor

[faint geyser]

dont you just love it crashing for 6 times in 30 mins

[tight ermine]

You know what I love? Constantly playing Countdown with lag.

I live in US East, yet MSV's servers think the Asian regions would be a better fit.

[remote lynx]

Well same here I live near Europe and the game thinks the US servers and the Asian server are the best.

[thorny talon]

Post video

[tight ermine]

I can honestly only think of two reasons why it happens.
Either most of the group is in a specific region and the game chooses what's best for the majority. Or the US East servers are full and we few have to take the boot to the other side of the planet.

And not even being lead gives you priority. Even if you started the party, you can still get knocked out to ping country.

[faint geyser]

thank god im in asia and most of the time its throwing me on asia server.. i dont mind being thrown on na/ew tho.. im used to the lag.

worst case is, i end up on aus server and 30 mins of matchmaking for 1 heroic stronghold and cant even find 1 player

and it crashed again. 7 crashes in 45 mins

[remote lynx]

Check that reddit post about a possible crash fix it worked for me so far.

[faint geyser]

yeah doing it now

[alpine gale]

why does the games easy anti cheat keep using all my cpu cores and all my 32gb of ram and still heavy power usage no wonder its crashing atleast 2-3 times per hr thought i was the only one till did search on ytube is this game not optimised for pc

was away from the game for over 6months and never had so many crashes in 1 day its a joke

[remote lynx]

We don't really know the issue, some say it's the easy anti cheat others say it's the game's engine.

[alpine gale]

sad thou they cant fix it never seen so many complaints in their forums about and people had enough no wonder they extened the cosmetic advent i cant even finish anything so removed the game not worth the rage anymore

[hushed hawk]

Which one?

If it's the one that has the game bypass the windows exploit suite, no. Never do that

[remote lynx]

Yes that one

I don't think it's a risky for my PC, I mean it's not like some hacker will hack into my computer using Division 2 game files. Isn't it?

[alpine gale]

tried those fixes maybe got to boss for manhunt then it crashed

whatever they have done with the last season added and countdown they have wrecked the game they musnt have tested it their side for anymore than couple of hrs if they had they would have had atleast 1 crash lol

[remote lynx]

I'm pretty sure that the Devs did experience crashes on their end.

[hushed hawk]

You don't want an unstable game having too many privileges within your system. But it's your choice

[vague lagoon]

does anyone play on dualsense that knows how to change the xbox input to playstation input? I'm seeing xbox icons

[boreal apex]

Hi sweetie. Unfortunately all the "fixes" are just workarounds and not a solution for the crashes introduced since TU15. The videos circulating are just for people who are desperate looking for solutions and a way for content creators to get more clicks/views. Ultimately the only solution for crashes is for Massive to fix the broken code their apprentices from Ubisoft Bucharest put in the game. The thousands of threads created on the forums since TU15 points to a game or trusted third party software partner issue not our hardware! Just gotta have some patience and hope the fixes come before TU16!

[fervent berry]

I'd be playing in the proper server and I'd still get frame dropping or lag occasionally

[hearty briar]

I'm genuinely getting sick of these crashes. It's the sixth time I've crashed trying to do Chang's bounty.

[alpine gale]

@boreal apex ah i see tks for that still a pity thou typical that i cam back after 6 months to a game i cant get nothing completed

[rich shadow]

it's a huge problem on PC and it's turning people away from the game. This needs addressing asap.

[hearty briar]

Well we're getting a soonTm fix for it

In theory anyway. But I'd like to at least finish Chang's bounty so I can get the bugged third key.

[terse rune]

Are the servers working? I cant connect

[solemn hull]

Servers are up buddy...

[desert crystal]

any one noticed its a lot smoother since yesterday

[terse rune]

I play with vpn and so far I have not had any problems. But now it does not connect to the server at all. what is the problem?

[potent chasm]

Giving hardcore mode a shot

So far I have not died

Huzzah

[desert crystal]

What sort of vpn free or paid

[terse rune]

Paid. Its fixed ip

[desert crystal]

is it only since yesterday’s update

[terse rune]

I have this problem from today. I even played yesterday

Error mike-01

[desert crystal]

strage

thats sounds like no connection to server

[terse rune]

What should I do?🥲

[unkempt berry]

Is anyone doing NY missions

[desert crystal]

New york

[unkempt berry]

Yeah

[desert crystal]

for what

[unkempt berry]

Just to complete certain missions for the manhunt

[desert crystal]

i thought the manhunt was dc

or are you on New York story missions

[tropic compass]

Are blueprints completely bugged? Like you cant get weapons like nemesis or chatterbox?

[desert crystal]

i thojght that yesterday

does it not reset control points chageing world tier constantly

[sterile wadi]

i cant use the 3rd decryption key. anybody else experiencing this?

[vale ledge]

reset the campaign, make sure you kill the lieutenants in your own session only

i made a mistaken of doing the bounty in other ppl's session, used to be okay but now it bugged for me, twice

[twin marsh]

Anyone who needs support in the game call me

🧐

[vale ledge]

i was redoing the manhunt campaign, twice yesterday night, was demoralising

probably will rush with normal difficulty later...

[twilit meteor]

how do I fix this game crashes?

[elfin hazel]

oh boy here we go again

[elfin hazel]

try setting EAC to one core in task manager

[slender laurel]

I wonder how long itll take for me to complete all 100 floors.

[vale ledge]

6hrs

solo

[slender laurel]

I have 39 left.

On hard

I tried the negotiators dilemma gear set, its decent.

[dull blaze]

Keep getting put in asian servers on countdown… in Eu

[dull blaze]

Suprise they delayed the new apparel event

[fast cave]

i never understood what does quality has to do with launching the apparel event

its not like they will make more adjustments so late into release

[sterile spire]

where do I get premium credits

I know you can get em from dark zones but where in the dark zones

[elfin hazel]

pause/escape menu > store > premium credits

dark zone credits are through deconstructing items and small boxes in the DZ

[sterile spire]

I meant without spending money lol

[elfin hazel]

there is no way for that

[sterile spire]

but I got 200 for free out of the dark zone

not 100% sure on how I got em tho

[boreal apex]

Ubisoft club gives you 200 free credits, after that you have to buy

[sterile spire]

you see

I'm pretty sure I opened somethin and on the bottom left it told me that I got 200

[slender laurel]

I got another exotic part its for a vest.

[slender laurel]

Yis I got the bluescreen exotic.

And another dread edict.

[azure lintel]

Least it wasn't the bluescreen crash

[slender laurel]

Lmao

[lament mirage]

It's pretty good

[slender laurel]

It is.

Even with bluescreen.

[slender laurel]

20 more floors to go.

[languid oak]

Is main account proficiency/expertise sharing with hard core character bug or feature?

[chilly gorge]

can you only do invaded strongholds once a week?

[polar chasm]

you only have 1 invaded stronghold per week but you can do it multiple times

[slender laurel]

But you cant earn spec points if you do it again.

[chilly gorge]

farming exotics will take weeks than D:

[timber hatch]

There are no bugs, only features

[languid oak]

There is lot of bugs :-X

[chilly gorge]

if everything is a bug, is anything really a bug at all

[timber hatch]

I think you mean "features"

[languid oak]

I don't want to get hyped for feature which got removed in update

[chilly gorge]

does SHD tech have uses outside of perks and skills

[polar chasm]

yes, materials and money every 5th rank and after 999 ranks every rank

or do you mean the skills itself?

[chilly gorge]

no just the SHD techs

tq btw :)

[gloomy lark]

Safe house loot in warlords

Nothing special

If I remember correctly

[polar chasm]

well you make a build with those, not sure what you mean

[hybrid ore]

Assuming you're talking about the "SHD Tech" that you pick up from boxes around the map, then after you've spent it all on Skills+co, they'll be some left over.

[rugged hatch]

Ran into my first elitist who was talking crap about my skill build while he was trying to use random junk pieces for a legendary mission. odd that one.

[gloomy lark]

I’ve had someone get mad because I had the ammo directive on 😆

[polar chasm]

seen alot of players with ranks above 1000 and when i inspect them they just use random stuff, no wonder they request help even on hard ...

[gloomy lark]

Shd level doesn’t mean much yea

[polar chasm]

i expect at least some build, not random stuff like 1 piece from 1 GS and 1 from another and such

[vale ledge]

er... thats the usual high end

[wide condor]

i equip random stuff atm to level expertise so probably why, but stilll solo on heroic

[fervent berry]

Maybe those guys are experimenting. That's what I'm doing at the moment and I'm SHD level 835

SHD level is very irrelevant regarding how expert players are.

[rugged hatch]

This guy was struggling agiast heroic enemies.

[gloomy lark]

Heartbreaker set, coyote mask, contractor gloves, and bullet king is pretty fun

[slow linden]

Can anyone not use the 3rd key? lmao

[gloomy lark]

Logout if kelso is gone

[fervent berry]

Some folks have advised to fast travel to NY, then fast travel back to DC. Kelso spawns where she needs to be, supposedly.

[slow linden]

Ty…always something

[haughty summit]

Expertise exists

[polar chasm]

damn just seen a player with 13660 shd rank

[languid oak]

Can't see account share blueprints and materials on Hard Core character from Inaya. Do I need to be lv30?

[dull blaze]

Seen ppl with 35k shd on ps 😵‍💫

[slender laurel]

God damn, I did all 100 floors..

[plush otter]

i believe you get access to buying that at wt1

[languid oak]

OK thx

[azure lintel]

highest I've seen is 37k 🙀

[timber hatch]

It's WT2 for whatever reason

[light trail]

I saw a 20k last night

But the top player in the world is like 250k or some crazy number

[plush otter]

ah, thought i remembered there was something weird with it, that why i worded it so tentatively, so @languid oak ,correction: wt2

[light trail]

Rivens fight demons on if they should send the message or not

[glass swift]

Hi, i dont this many people tought about this but i hope in the next update, we will be able to visualy costumize our weapon attachments too. I mean the bonuses to be called just called weapon attachment and to have the specific bonuses but to be able to change its appearences. I really want to add the surpressor but not with accuracy but with crit damage instead and ETC.

[remote lynx]

Hello agents

anyone able to get the chill out mask after yesterday's update?

[fervent berry]

Customizing weapon attachments sounds like a lot of work, tbh. That's just more bugs waiting to happen, unfortunately.

[fervent berry]

Nope, not me, but then I have terrible luck in the first place 😂

[remote lynx]

So it seems Massive is lacking when it comes to game coding?

[fervent berry]

Possibly, it's unfortunate given the circumstances at the moment.

[remote lynx]

Im 100% sure, there are Div 2 players who are excellent coders.

If you need help just ask. i bet you they will do it for free for the sake of saving this game

[fervent berry]

It's probably more complicated than that, but I understand what you're saying 😂

[inland verge]

How come Agent kelso has disappeared when I've tried to give her the third manhunt key ?

I didn't get an audio file or anything either

[remote lynx]

well i still didnt kill the 3rd guy

[fervent berry]

There's excellent coding and then there's excellent refactoring of sorts. Not all coders want to debug or refactor most of their days.

[boreal apex]

That's why I am very apprehensive about us getting the "invite a friend" hunter outfit now. It's like what else can go wrong. -_-

[inland verge]

Can anyone shine some light on this issue for me ?

[boreal apex]

Try logging out and back in again.

[fervent berry]

Also try fast traveling to NY then traveling back to DC @inland verge

[inland verge]

already have and thats not fixed anything

[inland verge]

ok will do

Yep thats worked for some reason thanks lad

[remote lynx]

Since the last update im getting frequent "Failed to synchronize achievements" upon launching the game or closing it. anyone experiencing this?

[obsidian onyx]

Is chill out mask still In the general loot pool?.

[remote lynx]

I dont think so

[obsidian onyx]

Getting swarmed with Nightwatchers so just wanted to make sure.

[tender wave]

See #division-tweets for yesterday's patch notes

[boreal apex]

I know a lot of you want news on the stability and performance issues. The truth is we're still investigating. These things are traditionally hard to pinpoint. It is our number one priority though and we will deploy fixes as soon as we can, once we identified the issues

[obsidian onyx]

@tender wave Thank you for the heads up, where does It drop now then?. I honestly don't remember Its normal drop place.

I'm assuming DZ or PvP In general?.

[remote lynx]

they said "Removed the "Chill Out" mask from the general loot pool."

Me too i want to get the chill out mask

Its just stupid removing this cool mask from the general loot pool tbh

[hybrid ore]

Was never meant to be in the game outside of the Christmas period.
It'll be back then.

[obsidian onyx]

So It's currently not In the game at all then?.

[tender wave]

There was a patch a few weeks ago that claimed to move it to just named caches, but didn't in practice, so it might still be available from them. Otherwise, it's a seasonal event thing as rivens said

[obsidian onyx]

ahhh okay so just caches then.

[boreal apex]

no its a seasonal christmas event drop from the loot goblin along with the sleigher, it was never meant to be available in the game outside of it.

[remote lynx]

Sad 😦

Imagine if you are a new div 2 player you have to wait for Christmas to get it : /

[obsidian onyx]

So can It drop from named caches or not can anyone confirm?. I wanna make a 100% sure before I start anything, no point In doing countdown for another 30 hours for potentially nothing.

[hybrid ore]

There's been no real reports of it in the general loot pool since the Patch, so you can assume that it's gone from there.
And if it's gone from Named Item Caches, what else is there to spend the Countdown Caches on, really?

[rich shadow]

I need another gift with weapon handling and headshot damage.

[obsidian onyx]

Optimization and exotic caches for parts. 🤣 million things to finish still there.

[hybrid ore]

There are much faster ways to farm out Exotics than Countdown Caches, and breaking down all the excess stuff you get from a run from the same will fill your boots for that too.
and same, Nug. My DZ locked stuff is all a little ugh.

[rich shadow]

Until dz loot is fixed, named caches are the only way

[obsidian onyx]

Which ways for exotics nowdays? It's pretty fast to get exotics from countdown counting In drops ontop of currency.

[hybrid ore]

It's weird to me that people Optimise so much. It's meant to be a way to finish off near-godrolls, using it from mid is like using gold to fill holes in your wall.

[light trail]

Fr I can’t get an orbit

[tender wave]

Given how many possible items are found in named caches, I suspect it'll be a while before we can say with certainty if chill out is or is not in them

[boreal apex]

yes you have to wait, it was a bug and tbh you've missed alot of exciting stuff which were locked behind events like the Resident Evil skins and the community find tommy the teddy bear challenge

[obsidian onyx]

Optimize so much because we got so many perfectly rolled items to finish, chill out mask was one of the last items I'm missing to fully completely my stash.

[hybrid ore]

@obsidian onyx @timber hatch has a video up, which I'm only mentioning it so they can give me the go ahead to link or not.

[obsidian onyx]

I've tried more or less everything fully min-maxed at this point, so seeing the chill out mask disappear Is kinda sad. I'll be Incomplete for a while. 😢

Need new ways to farm legendaries with.

[obsidian onyx]

I'm assuming the Resident Evil skins that were where aren't the ones In the shop atm right?.

[desert crystal]

isnt optimiseing to finish the state off anyway

[hybrid ore]

the Resident Evil Apparel Event had them for free, now they're paid.
so: yes, they're the same ones.

[rich shadow]

Back before the increased mat cap I wanted to optimise because I had maxed out shd calibration mats.

[hybrid ore]

pardon?

[obsidian onyx]

ah okay just making sure thank you, I'm a huge RE nerd so thought I had missed something big while on break. Bought one of them already.

[boreal apex]

create new character, reach white house, use the boost to level 30, buy shared resources from Anaya, do weekly shd project, deconstruct exotic, delete character. Rinse and repeat. 1 exotic every 10 mins if that's something you dont find boring

[obsidian onyx]

Honestly at that point I'd rather turn my brain off and run countdown to my eyes bleed.

[desert crystal]

cant you go stright to NY anyway on a new character

[hybrid ore]

You can post images of your build over in #td2-build-advice, as long as you don't spam too many.

[rich shadow]

Sometimes if I find a chest/backpack with the right rolls I'll optimise and recal the talent. I'm not too fussed if it costs loads of mats to optimise cos they fill back up fast anyways

[obsidian onyx]

I've had that when using Nemesis too sometimes, the scope will transfer to my other rifle and It'll block view I found It kinda funny to have such a massive scope on white death, fixed itself after relogging though.

[kindred granite]

its not rly a build thing, its a hud/ui thing which only noticeble to me, when using a pistol

[hybrid ore]

Oh if it's a troubleshooting thing, we have #unofficial-troubleshooting for that.

[desert crystal]

i normaly recalibrate one roll and optimise the rest

[kindred granite]

TY

[obsidian onyx]

Same.

[remote lynx]

@hybrid oreHey man do you play warframe?

🙂

[obsidian onyx]

oh ye almost forgot. @hybrid ore Thank you for the help last time In dms regarding the lights, managed to get It fixed completely.

[timber hatch]

What video?

[hybrid ore]

This one, assuming it's still relevant. https://youtu.be/At_f_rqCTQc

Yeah I'm one of the 38.

[obsidian onyx]

So how all you beautiful people doing today, everything good?.

[slender laurel]

What should I do in Division 2 after I've done the 3 manhunt targets?

[rich shadow]

Invaded missions

[slender laurel]

Mm, I'mma do Tidal Basin invaded.

I forgot to do it.

After that, maybe I should do the control points in nyc.

Orrrr I can unlock flamethrower spec.

[fervent berry]

Unlock the flamethrower and set fire to the world

[slender laurel]

"Burn, baby burn."

[obsidian onyx]

I don't even have to do that to see fire, It's burning hot where I live today and tomorrow Is going to be even worse. 😭

[fervent berry]

The Cleaners must have taken over the world then. It's overrrr

[slender laurel]

Only the division will save us!

[fervent berry]

Matchmaking today reminded me that Conley's mission is the best yet. Change my mind.

[obsidian onyx]

Not very good with names, which one Is that again?.

[fervent berry]

Stranded Tanker mission where you hunt down Conley

Pure adrenaline from start to finish, it's great

[obsidian onyx]

ahhh

[rugged hatch]

People who kick people that crash suck. :/

[polar chasm]

they cant see that you crashed, only that you went offline

[desert crystal]

how do i get the flame thrower

[rugged hatch]

Well the ycould wait more then 5 seconds to see if the person is coming back.

[desert crystal]

that hasnt happed to me since yesterdays patch at all

[tight ermine]

Firewall Specialization.

[tight ermine]

Except it typically takes way longer for that person to come back. And a majority of the time, once they come back online, they just get automatically kicked from the group anyway.

[rugged hatch]

I was back online in like 20 to 30 seconds.

[muted rapids]

Did Kenley for the first time yesterday, is it normal for it to get godrolled loot really easily there? Got at least 7 pieces including a drone repair mod

[floral hound]

hello floor 10 summit any one

[tight ermine]

You were. That's not the case for everyone.
In the majority of my personal experiences, I have entire times where we start a Legendary mission, and the person who crashed doesn't come back online until we're like... 70% through the mission already.
ISAC will literally play the "Agent is back online." voice cue at the exact same time they get kicked from the group. Not mentioning by the way that no even initiated a vote kick in the first place.
Again, this isn't the case for everybody. Sometimes you'll get put back into the game immediately and still be a part of the group. But a majority of the time, that's not the case.

I couldn't explain why it happens or how it comes to pass. If I had take to take a wild guess, maybe you get put into a different server upon starting the game again.
Or maybe the game goes through sync problems with the network between you and the leader's session.

[obsidian onyx]

Everytime I've crashed In countdown I've always been kicked before getting back on again, Idk If that's the case outside of that mode but what I assumed happend was that It just timed out before I could get online again.

[tight ermine]

Or that too. ^

[obsidian onyx]

Shit happens I've gotten used to crashes happening sometimes, so getting kicked out doesn't really bother me personally. I'd see It being annoying doing an actual raid though but yeah there really isn't anything you can do about It until It's fixed.

[hushed hawk]

I've always gotten automatically kicked from countdown even though no vote kick has been initiated. Just a weird part of the system

[mossy bluff]

after this new patch the game grashes even more .. what a joke

[ivory pebble]

Start a hardcore character?

[azure lintel]

😂

[tight ermine]

The real endgame is completing both raids, all 3 Legendary strongholds, and Floor 100 of Summit on Legendary with all directives active, on a single hardcore character.

[slender laurel]

Lol, I saw a civilian killed two rikers.

Thats something cool about division 2, open world encounters(?)

[boreal apex]

because unlike raids countdown doesnt allow players who disconnect or crash to re-enter the instance. Its a game mode limitation.

[obsidian onyx]

I've seen a few reconnect before.

[verbal vector]

I think kelso tried to go rougue in potomac event center

[boreal apex]

and I never have nor when I have crashed and log back in get back into my same game

[obsidian onyx]

Same I've only seen a few others actually manage that, though I rarely crash In countdown now.

[real cobalt]

so im new to division 2 and i seen raids that i would like to partake in the future im level 15 and i just started 2 days ago once im level 30 could i get some insight on what build and weapons imma need for raids? i have the ultimate edition btw

[tender wave]

wait until you've finished the dlc campaign and reached level 40, then worry about putting a build together. Starter raid build is the 'standard red dps' build you can find in the spreadsheet linked in the pinned messages in #td2-build-advice

[real cobalt]

ah ok

so is the new level cap 40?

[bitter wraith]

What's the fastest way to get assessments without the needed blueprint?

[summer pendant]

Yep, the NYC dlc gets you up to 40

[real cobalt]

alright thxs

[cold valve]

I keep seeing people using chatterbox with oxidizer builds, is there some sort of special interaction between that gun and the oxidizer that is the reason people are doing that?

[winter radish]

If you reload close to the initial Add spawn, it will let you spam the oxi chem a lot faster

[cold valve]

Perfecto, that makes sense. Thank you for the clarification

[fair lake]

You hold chatterbox, reload it near enemies (the more, the better) - then you switch to your skill, but the buff is still active, so you spam speed is increased a lot. Even if you die - your buff won't dissapear. So there is no need to reload every time you enter the floor 10

[dreamy fractal]

How do you claim the bugout mask

[azure lintel]

Am so tired playing division 2 on ps4😭😭😭😭

When am I gonna have a nice pc

After the update it’s so hard to play

To many frame drops

And it’s just unplayable

[sour bone]

if i do an invaded stronghold how can i repeat that stronghold invaded again

[azure lintel]

Gotta wait

It’s every week I think

[sour bone]

oh ok

ffs thanks tho

[lucid juniper]

hey guys i just killed keener! whats the best place to lvl up and farm gear as a SHD lvl 1?

[ivory pebble]

what build are you after? skill, dps or ?

check the map for where the gear type is and loot that area

& congrats

[lucid juniper]

which one is easier?

for a filthy casual

😛

[lucid juniper]

thnx

[bitter wraith]

Anyone know?

[ivory pebble]

haa. imperial dynasty is a great skill build which helps distance. look for it on the map. all u need is 3 pieces of it and one wyvern wear. then u can add a couple or reds from fenris for assault rifle damage and whatever else you care to have. then kinda see how you play from there. I made my way to a 4 piece striker build with a grupo and ceska to finish it off is all i run now and then skill is the imperial with wyvern and hana 2 piece. @lucid juniper

[fervent berry]

Bounties and missions? Although it's probably better to craft them if you have the blueprints. Maybe there's a better way 😅

[cold valve]

Does skill haste still effect the imperial dynasty?

[balmy cedar]

Toggle it back on invaded mode

You’ll be able to replay it

[tight ermine]

Yeah, you don't have to wait a whole week unless it's a stronghold that isn't invaded in that rotation.
Can just toggle it through map.

[bitter wraith]

Damn. Is it rare to get the optimization blueprints? Might put together a skill build with what I have to demolish CPs easier

[fervent berry]

I honestly don't recall how I got the blueprints to be honest. But iirc, CPs only give field recon data, not assessments.

[bitter wraith]

But don't they give the blueprints FOR the assessments?

How else do you get them? 😂

[fervent berry]

But all I said was I don't recall how I got them.

Clearing CPs in a rush probably got me those blueprints, sure.

[bitter wraith]

I'll try my explosive build then

Sticky + explosive seeker + artillery sometimes if I want to keep distance

[fervent berry]

I feel like a decent 6R Hunter's Fury build clears CPs fairly quickly

[royal blaze]

any1 wanna do something

[lucid juniper]

how do i increase my map difficaulty?

[ivory pebble]

open map and on bottom of screen you will see "global settings"

[covert cairn]

Literally got banned for calling out a damage stacking cheater lol. Look out for TheDivisionXray if anyone plays dark zone.

[wide condor]

you mean where the other weapons count towards your main weapon dmg? you can simply get that by logout to character and login again and never switch weapon after that XD(provided you upgraded those weapons via expertise system)

[hallow grove]

How can you guys find people in the dark zones?

[fervent berry]

Call an extraction and see how it goes

[hallow grove]

Ive never seen another player

I’ve extracted maybe 25 times or so seperate occasions

[azure lintel]

How do you not see people

[hallow grove]

Idk

[wide condor]

i dont think i've ever been in an empty dz ever lol

[hallow grove]

What time do you play tho

I could be playing at quiet times

[fervent berry]

Gee, I wish I could farm peacefully in a quiet dark zone. There's always someone waiting in the dark to ruin the fun at the end of the day

[wide condor]

i've met peaceful people in the dz before, most arent tho xD

often those are just the ones collecting gear for pve

[hallow grove]

I’m WT4 should that make a difference

[wide condor]

hmm yeah i think most people are either level 40 or at wt5 if they dont have expansion

[fervent berry]

The power gap between WT4 and level 40 is way too significant and massive

*no pun intended

[hallow grove]

Tbf I’ve been playing for a week and a half

[wide condor]

yeah a level 40 would hit you hard so you crash to desktop xD

[timber hatch]

DZs are split between 1-30 and 40

[sour bone]

any recommendations how i can farm some credits?

[wide condor]

probably just vendor all gear you get

you could spend some shd points but ehh better spent on mats in that case

[vapid python]

so for PC they fixed the long start up load times, and now is anyone else getting a lot of crashes during gameplay? 🥲

[sour bone]

ye tbh idk if its coincidence

[wide condor]

i think i crashed maybe twice in the past 2 weeks or so, but i done all those fixes, for me it helped it seems so far

[vapid python]

can you link me those fixes?

there's a new "fix" on reddit every now and then, i try them all but they're all ymmv

[wide condor]

#unofficial-troubleshooting message

[fervent berry]

lmao I was wondering what that link is
Turns out it's #unofficial-troubleshooting 😂

[vapid python]

this fix looks way in depth

[wide condor]

yeah its a link to a specific message on this server lol

[vapid python]

better put on a pot of coffee for this one

[wide condor]

i tried the eac to one core etc, and overlay/discord etc turned off, those never helped for me

either way, its worth a try atleast

one of the 2 times it actually crashed with an error report to ubi, so that was atleast something

[vapid python]

yea unfortunately with all these fixes are hit and miss with everyone

on an unrelated note, are enemies running away more? I noticed it during the guardians event but even now they sprint a block away

[ripe jackal]

Hi, does anybody know how you unlock a vendor for dz thanks!

[wide condor]

hmm certain factions do behave more like that, esp when you door camp them

some actively engage you at the door, other just bolt it and go into cover

[warped sandal]

I noticed rushers are wayy more agressive if theyyre an enemy protected by a guardian

[fervent berry]

Melee them once then burst them down. Not a problem even with their guardians.

[ivory pebble]

the vendors located outside of each dz entrance?

[ripe jackal]

There not? They are on div 1

[tacit bear]

Man I don't know how people farm legendary stuff 🤣🤣🤣
