[unborn delta]

That’s dumb. Ok where do I find someone who can carry me through because constantly dying behind cover in a COVER based game seems flawed design.

And did all the side missions, none left (that I can find or see anyways)

[lone minnow]

Was never an issue for me. If I died behind cover it usually means that either the cover wasn't tall enough or something else from another angle is belting my ass.

[hallow raptor]

The invaded missions are easier than the regular missions imo.

[unborn delta]

Explosions were knocking me out of cover and then 5-6 guys one shorting me

[hallow raptor]

Try #lfg-pc

[unborn delta]

Not thus far. They seem worse and more tedious. They stay in cover more and hit harder and have more health

[unborn delta]

Roger roger

[lone minnow]

If you've been decently keeping up with gear upgrades they shouldn't be that bad.

I played up to World Tier 4 before I used my boost.

[unborn delta]

I’m 293 in world tier 1, everything that’s dropping even from the level up gamble boxes is trash or weaker.

[hallow raptor]

Use a striker drone and/or assault turret to draw agro. Just don’t put the turret near you as they like to toss grenades at it.

[unborn delta]

I can’t use the gun drone at the same time as the healer drone. Ok I’ll try turret. Mainly been using the scanner so I can see where they are, because the shot gun guys rush me and one shot me.

Detest the flanking

[silent tundra]

is a skill build required for legendary strongholds or could i get away with my heartbreaker build?

[lone minnow]

Repair hive is a thing.

Double tap it to drop, pick it up when you've healed enough.

Or you can go repair drone and assault turret, either way.

[unborn delta]

How do I make my armor kit instant like in the first one? I go to click it and im standing still, still get shot and die and have to restart the entire area

It wasn’t like this during the storyline, it’s only after the world tier thingy was forced on me that it’s an issue now.

[craggy karma]

Everyone seems to think that offence is the best defense. Hutchler's "Legendary for dummies" is very helpful video.

[oak talon]

neither required nor really recommended, it can make for a slow safer clear, but most groups nowadays will run it with 3 hard hitting reds, and then either a eclipse foam cc-er or a fi medic, or both and 2 reds if you want to play it slow and safe

[narrow matrix]

So the ideal thing is to use the left primer then switch to a gun like famas on plates in DH?

[oak talon]

its always like that, its to make it so you have to think about when to use them (exception being one gearset, but you dont have access to that yet, nor would you want to use it for pve)

[narrow matrix]

Also does technician boost dmg to buddy and Lucy? The skill proxy tier?

[lime night]

LF1M weeky legend

[unborn delta]

I…..im lost then. How do I not die then when I’m shoved out of cover by explosions and shot to pieces in less then 1 second. Is that not the time the use it, to like….not die? I’m very confused.

[oak talon]

you start to learn how to setup for fights more, for instance, most advanced players dont really use the games cover mechanic, but take cover behind a full height piece of cover without actually pressing the cover button, and peek out and back to fire

there is even a trick you can do with the shield and scoping in that improves that, but that isnt required at you stage, that gets used in legendaries and such

also make sure you arent completely undergeared still, a good weapon at your lvl especially can make it allot easier

and go into safety instead of staying in cover to heal aswell, meaning you fall back behind where they cant shoot you at all to heal

and try the turret and drone aswell to take aggro away from you, or a revive hive as that will revive you automagically if you go down while it isnt on cooldown

[unborn delta]

Tier 1 is says is 0-300, im at 294. And I’m having to use guns I don’t like. Because the guns I do like are too low leveled. I really don’t like gamble gearing for that reason. If it let me just use the guns I like but it goes off my highest gear piece in my inventory, then it’s fine. I want to use the M4, but have to use the FAL because it’s the highest rated gun I have.

Tried the turret, it’s more just sitting there for minutes for it to come off CD after every fight, it’s boring

[unborn delta]

Oh yeah, that makes sense. I do it sometimes unless there is a dumb explosion idiot

[fallow inlet]

Hey Buddha, Ikia, Doom,

[silk glen]

Does anyone know why my downtown east safehouse won't open on my new character?

[stuck frigate]

Sorry for also asking a question, but when do I get lvl 31 loot show up? I just turned 31. I'm still in DC, if that matters.

[lone minnow]

When you get to level 31 in NYC

You have to do World Tiers 1 to 5

Levels 31 to 40 are locked behind the DLC basically.

[stuck frigate]

So..I start over at level 1 when I go to NYC? Or..

[lone minnow]

Nah you continue.

[stuck frigate]

I see. Can I hop over to NYC to activate the other levels to appear, and quickly hop back to DC to continue what was left there? Or am I stuck with lvl 30 stuff until I completely finish DC?

[lone minnow]

The latter

Gotta finish once you're in NYC.

Though you can get it done within 3 hours if you rush everything

[stuck frigate]

I see. Thanks for your explanation 🙂

I was confused because I am lvl 31 now in DC.

[civic dagger]

just hit 40 and killed keener, whats my best way of getting some good gear?

[craggy karma]

Target farm summit or countdown

[civic dagger]

Also with Demo/Tech/Gun/Firewall whats the recommended one to use? I've had demo this whole time but probably used the launcher like twice

I also had no idea you could put points into things on it so its just been base launcher lol

[craggy karma]

Preference seems to be the biggest factor but demo has some really good stuff for just starting. Armour Regen, a really good CH mod

[plucky mesa]

The best bits of specialisations is not the weapon.

[craggy karma]

That too

The weapon is the icing

[narrow matrix]

Did you meet with Odessa first and do Grand Washington Hotel?

I think that’s the order you’re supposed to do the intro in

[civic dagger]

What pieces if gear should I prioritise, I've had a look into the builds thing and got that meta 3 Providence 1 something else and a few weapon recommendations but I'm not sure what to farm for first and how to? I did a normal summit with the modifiers 30-39 but didn't get shit

From what I understand capturing points seems really good and whatever count down is

[oak talon]

countdown is good for farming if you are willing to matchmake, and summit is good for solo, both places you can set your own targeted loot, so just go down the list and get good enough pieces to start the build and have all slots filled, and then start working to making it better

and i would say go for the weapon slot first, get a decent ar, and then move on down the gear list

[obtuse quail]

when you say all slots filled. does that include their attributes maxed out as well?

[narrow matrix]

Pretty much but if you’re just starting out get as best you can

[oak talon]

well, first find gear that has the right stats, so you can make the entire build first, even if its bad stats, once you have the full build, then you can pick the worst piece to improve after its all together, and keep doing that till you are maxed out

[obtuse quail]

Gotcha. Thanks!

[civic dagger]

Sounds dumb but what difficulty of summit should I start running, is hard viable with base 40 and below gear

I have no friends so summit seems like a good idea

[fallow inlet]

Stay with challenging

[vocal fiber]

anything that is comfortable to run

but if possible challenging

[oak talon]

also consider random matchmaking once you have a somewhat decent build together, its very dependant on who you get, but usually even with 1 competent player on a ok build in the group is enough to get trough heroics

but get the basics of a build together first though so you can carry most of your own weight

[clever ocean]

i had a dream yesterday

on how to make pestilence work (maybe) just in like open world heroic

since you can't use a shield with LMGs i was thinking artificer hive + repair drone; stack like 40% repair and 40% incoming repairs (idk if that's enough or if you need more)

i guess i'll wait for season to start and then farm it and try it out

[foggy needle]

Pest already works as meta red build fyi.

Also much better using repair hive or heal chem over drone.

Drone is ass

[fossil thunder]

I am new in the game any one to play with me?

[vagrant kelp]

Is WONY supposed to be laggy AF compared to DC? Never had lag or latency until yesterday while starting the expac. It's all delayed commands as well. Any advice or suggestions?

[narrow matrix]

That’s an issue with the game on ps4 I’d say

When I ran through dc it’s a lot of audio chop out when there’s multiple sources, comms, manny, kelso, dialogue from enemies

The game can’t handle it and so it tells you to listen to chewed up noises

Ny is packing a lot of resources into a dense area… causes the game to behave differently

If it’s an issue, try restoring licenses… hover over the game > options > restore licenses

https://www.playstation.com/en-us/support/games/restore-licences-playstation/

[vagrant kelp]

That I did notice, but trying to fire my rifle with 420 rpm and it's shooting delayed like it's 100 rpm. Ok will give that a try and hopefully it works. It's pretty rough doing mission encounters this way and it's for sure not my side connection

Thanks as usual Arrow

[narrow matrix]

There’s the option I described above and there’s one that’s more involved and you’d do at your own risk though it’s safe and is built into the ps4’s safe mode restart

You can rebuild the database… basically the same as declustering the hard drive

Also that inconsistency with rifle spam exists and it’s so annoying cause it will start to mess up your trigger pulls… you’ll try to start spamming … then you’ll go slower. It’s an issue with the game … most guns can’t handle it, it will shoot 3 whatever rpm, then shoot 1 200 rpm.. the inconstancy is really annoying

It’s the game, not your console and not your controller

[civic dagger]

should i always deconstruct shit i dont want or is it better to sell?

[narrow matrix]

The only gun that bypasses it (rifle) imo is the 1886 cause it has 100 rpm 😂

[narrow matrix]

What level are you

[civic dagger]

just hit 40

[narrow matrix]

Deconstruct

[civic dagger]

bare bones gear

[narrow matrix]

Before you deconstruct tho check out your recalibration library and see what’s needed

[vagrant kelp]

That's good to know. I was starting to wonder if the controller was having signal issues at first, but I tried the other one and same thing. Yea man it was bad when I tried my diamondback!!! It was messing up my trigger pulls like crazy. I'd also to to swap, swap would not work so I'd tap it again and it would equip my specialization weap.

[narrow matrix]

Yea I’d try to not spam the trigger, keep a consistent pace otherwise the spring in the trigger will just tire your finger out and your hand will start to lock up

The ps4 back button for the controller actually helps to even it out cause there’s no spring trigger

It’s as if you’re pressing x to shoot the whole time but with your ring or middle finger

[vagrant kelp]

K thanks for the tips

[fresh vault]

Can we just keep spawning and doing bounties nowadays? I remember back in Season 1 having some kind of limit?

[oak talon]

in den olden days, you had to collect bounty tokens, that went away either with wony, or just after, now you can do as many bounties as you want, aslong as you have them, and you can farm them from public executions and hostage rescues aswell

[fresh vault]

Thanks

[clever ocean]

yeah but you have to manually use those

[clever ocean]

yeah but why would you use it over any other weapon that can use a shield tho

no reason to use it over like a smg or a famas

[foggy needle]

Yes but they are miles better then drone.
And reason to use pest would be "for fun". AR/ smg still better of course

[oak talon]

also pest is great for chalenging or below, its spread is very handy to get that last guy hiding two rooms over, a eclipse will do it aswell offcourse, but sometimes you want variety

[foggy needle]

+repair skill also buffs those other heal skills which makes them even stronger then drone still.

[clever ocean]

oh yeah I'm def gonna use different build for leg stuff lol

but i kinda want a more brainless build to farm heroic CPs/convoys

[narrow kraken]

What brand set guves ar dmg on 1 piece

[clever ocean]

fenris

[hallow plume]

is there specific location to farm for scorpion SG like the coyot mask?

[fresh vault]

The best way to farm Exotics is repeating missions in an area where it's the targeted loot or repeat a mission where it's the targeted loot.

Best way but hard to "control" is killing named NPC's in areas where that is the target loot

[tulip fiber]

Countdown as well. Target shotguns.

[lime night]

"selling" Mementos somebody wana extra copy 😂 the girl i was playing with didnt want it i was like realy? ok then...

[lone minnow]

It's only "tradable" for people in your group the moment it drops.

[foggy needle]

You mean the memento it dropped 😎

[lime night]

is this worth or no? still new to game so i need help

[hallow plume]

farming on CD is better than running mission on legendary?

[foggy needle]

Yes, Farming countdown or summit are better

More loot and easier to speed clear

[oak talon]

spend expertise grades mostly on weapons, there they have the greatest effect,
skills are a secondary option but overall less worthwhile,
and starting out, avoid upgrading gear with espertise

[hallow plume]

then wat the point of running legendary

[foggy needle]

For fun

[lime night]

so weapons only for start ok tnx

[grand crystal]

Somebody, help me search the music around 12:24 , i got no matches and i cannot find the soundtrack here.

ill give the hint that you should try to reach a high season lvl, and unlock the faye lau manhunt mission in camp white oak

[stiff canyon]

thanks that'll help

BlueRoseBudz

Known for being quite the menace on XBOX.

His builds are at a high threat level just to say, he hangs around in Level 40 from what i see on his gameplays and montages.

[prisma violet]

@bright jolt are you on?

[bright jolt]

yeah

did u finish the stuff?

[prisma violet]

i have to kill one final guy

before i unlock the anderson mission

[bright jolt]

alright

[prisma violet]

u wanna do the mission together?

[bright jolt]

i gotta go afk for a bit

[prisma violet]

o then i'll just do it rn

[bright jolt]

like 15-20 mins

and then we can start farming

[prisma violet]

aight i'll finish the mission rn

[unborn delta]

2 questions. 1. Can I remove/unequip the signature weapon? (It looks dumb this huge fraking thing on my back) and 2. Since I’m not allowed to turn off world tiers (which is ruining gameplay), can I turn them off once I get to tier 5 and actually enjoy the game then?

[prisma violet]

i dont think u can remove the signature weapon once u equip it

[supple swift]

you can hide it. look in settings

[unborn delta]

Under which setting? Gameplay or something else?

[supple swift]

tryna look. i remember they added that option last update

[fathom spruce]

it's in inventory options I think

[stiff lance]

Unless you’re looking for PVP, you can check out @stiff mountain streams. He’s pretty tryhard for raids and legendaries. Plays on both consoles and pc.

[fathom spruce]

like where you change sorting settings, where you can also show/hide mask

[prisma violet]

oh shit nice

[fathom spruce]

don't think you can go into those options in just the overall inventory view, but if you go into any category you have that options where you can also change sorting/filtering etc, it's the bottom part there

[unborn delta]

Roger roger

Thank you 👍🏻

[floral kettle]

anyone know what vest this actualy is ingame?

[ashen valley]

Looks like one of the 5.11 chest pieces

[ivory sundial]

That looks TOTS to me

[alpine onyx]

if I have a friend that doesn't have legacy manhunts but I do have them, can they unlock the SHD skills from them if I take them to the missions?

[neat willow]

hey fellas just picking this game up again after years, is the darkzine still populated or is there other shit that people d nowadays?

[supple swift]

afaik yes.
access to the mission is all they're locked out of

[zenith isle]

can someone tell me if it's bug or whaaa

[ashen valley]

It's bugged

[bright jolt]

@prisma violet it says i cant add u

[zenith isle]

so i never cant complete it then sad sad sad

bc its been like thst for a week already

[ashen valley]

There's a workaround for it but I don't remember it.

[main briar]

are npcs during the anderson mission extraction phase unlimited, or is it possible to clear out all enemies before interacting with the rope?

[supple swift]

unlimited. but there are times, in my experience, were we were able to "freeze" any further spawns. dont know what triggers it or how to do it consistently.
you also dont need to kill all enemies. extraction phase you just need to survive for 2 minutes

[prisma violet]

oof

[bright jolt]

u can add me i think

[main briar]

good to know, every time i've done it i've always been constantly shot at after interacting with the rope and was just wondering if there was a "proper" or intended way to complete the mission or not

[supple swift]

a trick you can do in group to ensure extraction in higher difficulties is to have 1 member stay behind at Lewis' door and wait while the other members go out the way they came in and head to the parking lot. once they are at the extraction area, the player left behind can then free lewis and come downstairs. the enemies will spawn around the time lewis exits the building or the player heads downstairs

[main briar]

ah

i've never actually done it grouped

[alpine onyx]

is there a trick to fighting the huge black tusk drones or am I meant to pour my entire ammo supply into them every single time I fight one

[late oar]

Shoot the red parts

Or more specifically the weakspots

[oak talon]

there are tricks to it, first off it has weakpoints on the motors, right below the rotors and at the end of the arms, if you destroy all 4, then it loses mobility and can only hover, and wont move around much more, there is also its red targeting pod that you can destroy once for a stun.
next you can use a emp sticky to actually make it a really easy fight, as you can sticky it and not detonate, and you will have it stunned for quite a while, even on a 0-skilltier build.
finally is to make use of parallax, as both its missiles and its gun are at its lower parts, while you could take cover behind something that obscures that bottom part and shoot the top, for instance a building or a bus,

[supple swift]

shoot with scorpio to disrupt.
on disrupt gun em down with an AR, shoot weakpoints if u can
have a decoy and throw it far

[copper zodiac]

Wus the whole gist of DZ manhunts other than the rewards & thrilling pvp

There’s gotta be a long term reward

[plush gate]

how do i get this thing?

[copper zodiac]

Deconstruct skill mods

[supple swift]

decon gear and skill mods

[oak talon]

the rewards in getting allot of dz caches are pretty good once you get a manhunt going, as you get allot of dz lvls, and as all pvp, its best explained by that portal quote, we do what we must, because we can

[copper zodiac]

How often do they occur in current player count?? Cause I dont see them ever in US west servers

[oak talon]

on prime time i see a bunch on eu atleast, the dz are also 12 people max per session, so you dont need many to get it going, all you need is 4 to go for it, and enough people willing to fight back to get it rolling

[copper zodiac]

Any chance a way to manually switch servers? Or is it VPN only

[storm river]

What for?

And yes vpn only

[oak talon]

there is no ingame way, and vpning into other regions will give you pretty bad ping is also something to consider

well, us west or mid to eu atleast, east to eu isnt too bad, but maybe could try west to east and see if its busier

[copper zodiac]

DZ landmarks the only way to farm DZ cache keys?

[ionic mica]

When enemies are in cover and aim at you (not blindfiring) are they considered out of cover?

[fathom spruce]

I think I literally just came across someone asking that when looking for something else here and it was said that it does count as out of cover when enemies aim at you yeah this is debunked and when enemies are properly attached to cover (whether they're peaking/blind firing/hiding) they don't count as out of cover, but if they're flanked or you push up to them they can get spooked and that often leads them to snap out of cover, which can seem like they're just regularly taking shots from cover but are actually standing up proper and count as out of cover

And it's only us players that still count as in cover while aiming and glued to it

[ionic mica]

Alright

[fathom spruce]

But I'm trying to find it again to make sure

[ionic mica]

Someone is explaining a new Agent in the other discord so

[copper zodiac]

I mean… they stand up and expose the waist above so yes, unless the game coding is weird and still count it as being in cover

[fathom spruce]

it's confusing because when we do the same it still counts as in cover

not in cover like physically covered by cover, but in cover by the mechanic in game where you're glued to a wall but can still peak

[oak talon]

no, they can drop from key cabinets in normal DC or NY, but also you can always just do the rogue lockbreak, in most dzs that wont matter if you are farming anyway

[copper zodiac]

True, 20 second timer anyway

[oak talon]

also if in duo or more, you can get double loot, by having one person key open the crate, and one doing the lockbreak at the same time, there is a little timing to it, but its a easy extra piece

[ionic mica]

I recall reading in one of the builds mentioning the OOC mechanics or something

[copper zodiac]

I’m curious about invaded DZ’s
Whats the diff between dis and normal DZ other than just black tusk infection

[oak talon]

practically no difference except that, the lvling on landmark is higher aswell with it, where a empty normal dz would be mostly more 1-2-3s and a few 4s at most, the invaded even empty is mostly 3s and 4s

it used to be, or still is, that invaded doesnt have normalisation, i always forget which one it was between still doesnt or was changed to also have it, but would only matter to lvl 39 an below anyway, and they shouldnt be in the dz anyway at lvl 30 wt5, just on gear available alone

[narrow kraken]

Player A = Breach issue player - Player B = Friend who can help

Player B creates a new character (main story) He get to the Whitehouse and Boosts to 30.

Player A joins player B.

Player B fast travels to Pentagon Breach side mission with Player A.

Both complete get to safehouse and watch cut scene (only will show for player B)

Both then complete breach mission, open doors to Pentagon mission, the mission will not show player A as ineligble but he still is, so both run the mission (story). Complete Mission and go to exit, take elevator, then go to blast doors and open which will now put you both at Darpa.

This should now unbrick Player A.

[narrow kraken]

I have the same problem Kurikan, maybe we can help eachother by creating both a new caracter. Please add me on PSN: iJorrit

[fathom spruce]

(and also @copper zodiac as you chimed in) so I went to test it, so far it seems that as long as enemies are glued to cover they do not actually count as out of cover, even when they peak to shoot (whether it's the "stick hand out with gun blind shooting" like when we do from cover without aiming, or actually popping up/peaking around with upper body and aiming & shooting)

it's only when they get staggered back, or spooked (when you flank them/get close) and stand up (even if it looks like they're still practically in cover, but they're not glued to the obstacle anymore) that's when they start counting as out of cover

so whatever I found earlier seems wrong and it works as expected (in cover behind, using the game's cover system to be "glued" to an obstacle, whether you're peaking/blind firing or not, and same goes for AI/enemies it seems)

[oak talon]

yeah, was about to say, i had actually jumped ingame after the earlier statements and was like, wait, am i misremembering something again, but yeah, it is indeed that any animation they are in when attached to cover is in cover, that is also why we dont consider dttooc at full strengt, as even a enemy in cover animation shooting back is in cover, but reds and purples stagger at a few shots to be out of it, elites are a bit more sticky

[fathom spruce]

it's a bit tricky I'm running around in hard with a bulwark shield to not die potshotting enemies at a mission lmao

when you get anywhere close or any flanking position they very quickly snap back out of cover but often still stand there unless they need to move away from you so it can look very similar to them being in cover, but actually not snapped to it anymore and thus counting as out of cover

[oak talon]

yeah, its specific animations they need to be in basically to be counted as in cover

[fathom spruce]

but the damage value seems very clearly missing exactly the 10% DTTOOC that I have on this weapon (was now testing to make sure I didn't see a reduction with optimal range, I'm trying to be as close to them as possible but that can spook them out) vs when they're out and about

I guess I should've been more surprised when I came across people saying how when enemies peak they don't count as in cover making that stat stronger than it already is, at that point the stat would be basically always active unless you sneak around an enemy and shoot them as they're hiding still without noticing you

[oak talon]

yeah, but in actual play, you do stagger enemies out of in cover state pretty easily aswell, so it is still likely close to 80% effective if averaged out, just a few shots to stagger most reds and purples out, elites a few more, and the people that eat up the most are lmg-ers as once they go into setup animation for outcasts or true sons, then they count in cover and hard to get out, and they are the chonkiest hp+armour pools

actually i now consider that i dont know if the riker turret counts as cover when manned, so going to check that aswell

[fathom spruce]

yus I'd still consider it effective very very often for all intents and purposes and there's no real enemy that can truly deny it from you unlike say headshot damage bonus
just that statement with them peaking confused me way too much

it can look deceiving and funny with how much of a stance enemies can take outside of cover and still count as cover so I can see how people might be confused as well with in cover as in physically behind cover vs attached to cover technically but otherwise not particularly covered

this enemy here is still attached to cover so DTOOC doesn't apply

[copper zodiac]

So its as long as it shows that funny icon

[fathom spruce]

I don't think there's anything indicating it

in cover enemy vs not in cover, no visual indicator change

I think our best bet of knowing is to see the slight differences in their standing animations and general freedom of movement (if attached to cover they can't be inching back or doing circular motions, hell I think AI doesn't even glide along cover so it's really just a stationary point usually)

[oak talon]

yeah a indicator in the hud for it would be news to me aswell, but also wouldnt be the first time i had missed some marker in the hud till i was shown it

[ionic mica]

Ah

[fathom spruce]

I spectated a bit of replay frame by frame between various enemies in cover (confirmed by damage number) and out of cover after (confirmed by damage number again) and don't see any indicator anywhere about it so we can rest assured here 🤣

[zenith isle]

I'm PC

[oak talon]

and yeah, rikers turrets dont count as cover, also actually retested some others and i believed that true sons snipers and lmg-ers actually counted as in cover when they went prone, same for outcast gunners when they just squatted and fire, but turns out i am wrong on that, somewhere either conflated things, or jsut bad memory, but yeah, none of those are considered in cover, only when they do the setup animation they do after going in actual cover is in cover, so they do still eat up dttooc there as they are hard to stagger in that state

[vocal fiber]

personally I dont bother much with some of the summit challenges but my friend asked so; how do you guys complete some of those grenade kill challenges

[ionic mica]

Do them on the lowest difficulty I guess

[oak talon]

for most of the summit grenade ones, maybe even all, the spec multi grenade launcher will count, same for the tech missile launcher

[glacial sorrel]

has the store been down for over a week for anyone else? or is it just me

[river dove]

man, anyone else tried the exploit protection crash fix from reddit?

i haven't crashed once in 2 days

maybe luck, but maybe it actually worked

[tiny stump]

that was me that said just because an enemy stands up from cover to shoot, doesnt mean they're out of cover. and i pulled that out of thin air. i just made it up to cause a confusion months later

[cold forge]

How many tries you need in CD to get perfect famas for dz 💀

[tiny stump]

could be one run

[cold forge]

Unlucky me then

29 runs on heroic, nothing seems to drop 🥲

[gilded plume]

You can always do the ball to the wall tactics and optimize them

[tiny stump]

holy heck

everyone says open world sux for loot but i get god rolled gear and weapons from CPs, territory controls and resource convoys regularly. take a break from countdown

[gilded plume]

I do summit and got 2 exotic

[exotic isle]

Guys how to level up this

[cold forge]

Imagine getting good famas but it doesn't have dmg out of cover and trash talent and you gotta choose between em..and you're choosing to recycle it

[exotic isle]

Anyone?

[nimble spruce]

Main menu - Progression - commendations - claim any commendations you've earned

[exotic isle]

Thanks bro❣️

[civic dagger]

Does season level mean anything at this point?

[tiny stump]

in terms of rewards that you might not be able to get anywhere else, yeah kinda

[junior dome]

I havent played in a long time but im currently learning and trying to make a decent PVP build, But im wondering can you modify all attributes and the core attribute when re calibrating?

[tiny stump]

you can only recalibrate one of the attributes. the others cant be changed but they can be optimized to max them out

[craggy osprey]

Uhh how does the game calculate the rogue agents encounters in missions or free roam. Based on difficulty or ?

[cold forge]

just go heroic mode, i get rogue encouters per 3-6 cp's

[fallow inlet]

Hey Kettle,

[foggy needle]

unknown but its figured to be fully RNG spawn.

[narrow kraken]

Rng Spawn?

[foggy needle]

means random spawn

[fallow inlet]

Hey Azurmen32

[nimble spruce]

Hey Saph

[river dove]

it's just rng imo as they seem just as often to spawn in normal difficulty missions as heroic

they always seem to spawn if i'm doing one of the tactical commendations and nearing the end of the mission

so just do those commendations and you will have them spawn 🙂

[tiny stump]

control points seem to be the most reliable place to get rogues

it just sucks when theres four of them and they kill your three group mates and now its 4 rogues on 1 you

[foggy needle]

4 vs 1.. they should have brought more rogues.....
Agent down .....
i may have spoken too soon..

[tiny stump]

its usually 2 rogues dead. 4 of us dead

once the first group member goes down its like dominoes

[storm river]

When i was doing the ridgeways armor challenges i tried bank hq mission and got rogues in the second room on my first run lol

[storm river]

Scorpio+jammer ez sweep

[tiny stump]

yeah i always hope someone in the group is at least running scorpio, bc one time 4 of us were facing 4 hunters at floor 100 summit. 3 of us were dead, and the one dude with a tanky scorpio build saved the day

[river dove]

do the rogues' difficulty scale too?

they always seem about the same to me

[tiny stump]

i cant really tell either

[spare pecan]

anyone know anything about named cleaner "assault" found him in two bridges underground he dropped a utility Key, anyone know what its for

[nimble spruce]

Might be that nearby shd tech cache? (Normally it's an elite non-named tank type though, I think?)

[vague idol]

funny feature, ads kept spawning from burger and boomer didnt came out 🤣

[spare pecan]

i just got a mechanic type enemy

killed him quick

[tulip fiber]

Happened to me once. I was on that spot and one of the nodes was still up

[vague idol]

all were down here lol

[tulip fiber]

Hmm

[jade robin]

Do Heroic difficulty drop better than Challenging difficulty?

[tulip fiber]

Percentage rolls on gear and weapons, yes

[narrow kraken]

How can i get a higher sensi in Td2? Im already have the highest But its to slow

When comes The new season?

[craggy osprey]

date is not known

[foggy needle]

Delayed, no eta, see #news-and-announcements

[stuck frigate]

So eh, just turned lvl31. Still in DC, wanting to take our time and slowly work towards NYC. Do we spend materials and or buy new equipment until then, or is it smarter to just wait till lvl40 in NYC and then start building together your kit.

[craggy osprey]

get to level 40 and then start building

[stuck frigate]

Gotcha. We can only get to NYC without the character boost if we complete WT 1-5 within DC right?

If we boost, we skip that, if I am not mistaken.

[foggy needle]

correct

[stuck frigate]

Thank you both for your input 🙂

[storm river]

are my rewards broken or is it just a visual bug?

same shows for the other projects, only XP

[bright jolt]

how do you get capacitator now?

it does not show as the reward for 5 challenges completed for summit

[storm river]

try doing 5 anyways

[bright jolt]

alright, and your weekly projects is a visual bug

happened to me last week

[fallow inlet]

Did you remember to do it

[sharp granite]

I got it after 5 challenges last week even though it didn't show
long as you've not earned it before you can still get it this way

[bright jolt]

alright ty

[bright jolt]

weekly projects? yes, i did get an exotic cache after completing it even though it wasn't shown

[fallow inlet]

Ok just checking you never know

[tulip fiber]

Visual bug. I still get a cache.

[lime night]

question can this holster drop in 1st slot with armor?

[narrow kraken]

You can Change it to Amore

[tulip fiber]

No. You need the attribute you need, then you can change the core.

[narrow kraken]

If you mean Like picard nop

[stuck frigate]

Trinkets..to sell or not to sell?

[oak talon]

they have 0 use in lvl 40 currently, but also not worth much anyway

i just keep them out of lazyness, as even selling a 2000hours of play worth of them, is like 15k, which is 1 heroic bounty

[stuck frigate]

Makes sense, thanks 🙂

[storm river]

core attributes across any gear piece in the game will always be the same, tied to the set/brand

so for example hunters fury will always drop with a red core, eclipse protocol with yellow, belstone armory brand will always have blue ETC

[lime night]

@storm river @tulip fiber@narrow kraken thank you boys for helping new guy out!

[storm river]

anytime!

@mystic aurora this enough for ya?

[narrow kraken]

When comes The next season?

Until The Countdown ends?

[narrow matrix]

I don’t think they take up inventory space and if they’d add something ridiculous like a project to “donate 5 pencils” they would be good to have

[narrow kraken]

13h?

[narrow matrix]

Those projects exist in WT4 and WT5

[mystic aurora]

Well, when was that added?

[stuck frigate]

I'll keep it for now. Good to know, thanks.

[storm river]

been there forever

constantly working on it'

[worn roost]

just tried countdown for the first time..uh..stupid question..what am i supposed to do? There seemed to just be an endless amount of incredibly hard to kill rogue agents at the start and we just kinda got wiped

[narrow kraken]

Not rouge they are Hunters

U need to doit it With a 8 Group its faster The Alone

What is Base damage ? I Always See The damage and The normalizid stats?

[worn roost]

i was with a group of 8

a bunch of them suddenly ran ahead after the first and then died there?

was in heroic tho

[oak talon]

base dmg is the base dmg number of the weapon shown aswell, when you turn it on it shows 2 extra numbers underneath the normal total dmg on the weapon view sheet,
the white number is the base dmg of that weapon, that is nowadays a fixed number, its the number you also see in the spreadsheets and such for base weapon tables.
the orange number is howmuch your WD+SWD add to it to make it that total dmg number

its more usefull for testing purposes, not of real value if you are just playing

[narrow kraken]

And The stats?

[oak talon]

normalised stats is the same as toggleing pvp stats at lvl 40, showing the value changes to mostly some of the talents that are different in pvp

i think that toggle also shows what you will be scaled to if you enter a normalised zone if underleveled for it, but toggle pvp might also already do that, not something that pops up often so havent looked at that while on a lvling char

[civic dagger]

Does difficulty effect the actual strength of the gear that drops or is it just the drop rate?

[nimble spruce]

it affects the minimum rolls of the gear (which in turn affects average rolls and your chances of getting god-rolls). Does't affect drop rates as much, but directives do.

[civic dagger]

so as far as I understand this bag I can upgrade to be best in slot if i wanted to right?

[narrow matrix]

yes either optimize or reconfigure

[civic dagger]

Sweet, i thought I got lucky with it but didn't want to celebrate too early

[narrow matrix]

given that exotic components are like... needed these days, id optimize that

[hallow raptor]

I don’t know about best in slot, that would depend on the build

[civic dagger]

The skill damage and haste could be swapped or something but in general that's really good for a random drop in some challenged mission

[lime night]

can iron work base materails be farmed if i cleard the raid alrdy this week?

[narrow matrix]

what i do with it is switch to it and throw a grenade to overcharge.. which is separate from future perfection, btsu gloves and energize talent

[hallow raptor]

On another character, yes

[lime night]

k tnx

[narrow matrix]

so if u need a 2nd overcharge take off btsu gloves, throw on acostas

[fallen folio]

is the game worth for going back now? i was crashing nonstop

[civic dagger]

I've came back and have been enjoying myself ^^

[viscid pivot]

Do we know when the new season comes out?

time wise I mean

[civic dagger]

How do i tell when a gun drop i get is "good" the build im going for has the following "recommendations" but say i get a FAMAS that drops with fast hands does that automatically make it really really good for the build or does it have to have certain other stats?

[carmine flicker]

It has been delayed and we don’t know to what date

[viscid pivot]

sadge, ty

[ionic mica]

Damage to Target Out Of Cover

And to take advantage of fast hands, you need to land critical hits

[oak talon]

for almost all weapons, you want the third stat to be damage to targets out of cover, as dttooc is the best stat to have out of all of them in almost all cases

so for that famas recommendation, you want a well rolled famas, with dttooc as the third attribute, and also fast hands,
that can either be one that has fasthands that you put dttooc on, or one that has dttooc that you then put fast hands on,
the second option with a weapon with dttooc and a rerollable talent is what most covet, as that lets you have the right stats, and swap talents as to try out other stuff, or move to a dmg talent like strained if you want to for instance

[open comet]

What’s the best place to get max rolled mods and gear

[nimble spruce]

nexusmods

[open comet]

What’s that?

[noble brook]

Do yellow skill builds pale in damage compared to red, for heroic or higher difficulties?

[opaque aurora]

Trying to get cayote mask to improve my raid build, should i grind JTF on heroic or do countdown or sum else?

[lime night]

where is smg called dark winter droping?

[oak talon]

by a small margin, countdown is likely faster than jtc, unless jtc also has mask TL on it for that day

[oak talon]

dark winter is a dz/pvp item, meaning that it can drop from dz, conflict, dz caches and conflict caches, it can be on the dz vendors for dz credits, and for pve end it can be gotten in named caches

[oak talon]

once you get good with a red, they will outdo most turret drone builds by quite a bit, but require more active play and knowledge, as with the turret drone you have two things to take agro away from you and you dont have to be full focused on your targets, but can more easily maintain awareness starting out

[lime night]

what should i max 2nd in bottom right after reload now?

[noble brook]

Thx

[oak talon]

for mods best is legendary, either in summit or when gearmods are on a stronghold so you can do it on legendary, it increases the chances of a max mod allot, failing that, heroic with some directives with gearmod tl, either in countdown or summit, or even if its on a mission or zone in the openworld

but mostly its better to be at a difficulty you are comfortable at and going at a decent speed, over trying to bang your head against a diff that you arent making progress in

but in general also always consider challenging countdown, once you have a decent-ish build, as that is the fastest way to get a ton of loot

[oak talon]

i would say as second to fill, go accuracy, as that is the one thing you cant compensate for,
but its all tiny anyway, so not a really big difference, as stab can make recoil compensating easier, and ammo can be nice if you run a high rpm weapon, so if either of those sound more important to you, go for those

[green cedar]

So I shouldn't be doing heroic countdown? Difficulty modes on CD are new to me, just assumed heroic was the go to.

[oak talon]

challenging for farming gear, as it tends to be more drops per hour, and heroic for farming coins for caches and still ok amounts of gear, but also heroic is actually a diff that requires some gearing and competence on atleast a few people, challenging should be doable by even beginners in ok builds

and difficulty wise, the difficulties of countdown can be seen as:
challenging being halfway between mission/openworld challenging and heroic,
and heroic countdown is just a little above mission/openworld heroics

[lime night]

so i got this gun but i cant craft it again with better stats why? and i dont see it under crafting

@oak talon do you know myb?

[oak talon]

do you mean recal?

[lime night]

D50 pistol

got only this 4

[oak talon]

as for that, you dont have a saved pistol damage in your library yet,
you can see with those little triangles underneath the pistol damage bar and dttooc bar,
that you have no stored values of those,
as those triangles show by being allong that bar what you have stored in you library currently

[lime night]

aaaaa i see now

[oak talon]

oh for normal crafting you need to get the blueprint from cps and project and such, you dont get it for just having the gun once

also d50 doesnt have a blueprint at all, so it can never be crafted

[lime night]

rly so rare gun

[oak talon]

as allot of gear and guns do not have blueprints

[lime night]

got list myb somewhere on interent saved?

[oak talon]

you can see al the things that will be available to you just in that list, everything that is greyed out, will say what the blueprint comes from

mostly its cp3+4, weekly projects and invasions, but some come from sidemissions aswell

[lime night]

ok ok i tought everyting you get,you get insta blueprint but i was wrong thank god i didnt delete D50

[oak talon]

yeah, keep that d50, for crafting a liberty if nothing else, but also with its stats it well usable

[lime night]

i rly want "steady handed" talent on but then i cant slap max dmg when i extract one hard choice

[supple swift]

thats a good d50 for razorback solo weakpoint break

[oak talon]

if you like the gun itself, do the talent, as 3.2 WD less than max isnt a great loss, and waaaaaayyy later on if you still like it, you can optimise that WD to full

[lime night]

but you said il need to destroy if i i want exotic version?

[oak talon]

you can farm one from pistol TL pretty quick, also from time to time a crappy one will be on a vendor, you just need a d50, it doesnt need to be good for that, doesnt keep the stats or such

[jade robin]

Do you need to complete all 5 challenges in one go for Summit to unlock the Capacitor, or it can be in different sessions?

[oak talon]

technically i believe it should be able to be over multiple sessions, as long as no floor 100 complete or manual rest, but would not be surprised if that has broken at some point

but doing five in one session shouldnt be hard, if you pick easy ones, and start at floor 1

[copper siren]

Can someone that’s been threw ny help me do a hard level mission so I can try to catch up I’m under level for the last mission

[copper zodiac]

whats the best objective order for Countdown
Just did a match with a full lobby of people who are below SHD 50 & we got destroyed by hunters for 3 minutes

[narrow matrix]

Well everyone has to go to the same countermeasure, works if both teams go left and the other goes right from the start you’ll all end up in the same place

I find it that this order is fastest

Hostile Upload
Shd crates
Warhound team
Eliminate Hostiles
Protect VIP

The bottom 2 do drop more loot because there’s more enemies and more killing

Hostile upload and shd crates finish quickly but don’t leave time for stuff to drop

So if you’re farming for countdown credits, the first 3 are your best friend,

If farming for loot,

The bottom 3. But I find VIP to take too long and people will end up screwing up the main objective if they’re not participating in destroying the objective

Also to handle the hunters, most people foam them before they disrupt but if you’re the one foaming you won’t be able to shoot if you plan to foam again because the status effect will expire too quickly unless ur running skill build

If you can run eclipse protocol and foam at the end then the extraction will be a breeze

If you have multiple scorpios you should be able to stack them with ease and take out the hunter

[narrow kraken]

Whats the best Watch level farm?

[narrow matrix]

Resource convoy heroic with directives

[lime night]

can you craft weapons with "perfect talents" or thats just random drops?

[supple swift]

savage wolverine, sendoff and sleipnir only

[fresh vault]

Where is today's Rifle target loot? I can't find it anywhere

[fathom spruce]

could be that it's not there, not every type is on the map as there's more types than zones/missions

[fallow inlet]

Hey Doom

[copper zodiac]

firewall or gunner

just finished technician and need another specialization to work on.

[supple swift]

are you looking to farm shd levels quick?

[jade robin]

Yes jk

[supple swift]

lol
coz if you or they are, then get firewall as early as you can. for the fire eclipse build (easier convoy farming for levels at challenging to heroic 4-5 directives)

[jade robin]

Holy hell. With Capacitor and increased Skill Damage, I've cleared a control point Heroic in less than 4 minutes.

The turret just melt through elites' armor like butter.

[copper zodiac]

no, just wanted to unlock em to get specialization points

[dim bough]

bro does this game crash a lot for everyone else

[supple swift]

will really depend on what activity you looking to do but im biased towards firewall for a variety of reasons.
if u see yourself doing cqb and fire soon, go firewall.
if looking to do striker and other brr brr stuff, gunner

[vagrant kelp]

Finally 40 and gd the weapon damage goes way up lol

[copper zodiac]

hmm..., then again
Gunner's challenges look easy to unlock

[mossy sphinx]

how tf do i get dz resources

i just opened 5 locked chests in the dz

and i have 12 still

[sand rivet]

I only played DZ for a bit when Kard was at vendor. DZ resources can be gotten from deconstructing contaminated stuff, then extracting said credits. What I personally did for a "constant" gain of DZ resources is hunt for these rectangular loot boxes that contain 1 DZ resource, as they instantly go into your inventory, it's slow but consistent.

[mossy sphinx]

thats a dumb change

bring back TD1 dark zone pls

lol

[copper zodiac]

season is ending in under 2 hrs.
so I was wondering if I can still grind it after that time and if I can buy the season pass (tier 91)

[craggy osprey]

how do the dz levels work

when you die you lose exp

if im dz lvl 25 and lose the exp torwards lvl 26 can i drop to 24 or is it blocked by the tiers ?

[copper zodiac]

You just lose a chunk but not too significant

[copper zodiac]

Also my question stands:
Can u continue to grind Season 10 after it ends which is tonight

[supple swift]

you'll find out in 50 mins

[craggy osprey]

i know that but my question is if i get snowballed by rogues can i drop down to lvl 1

[copper zodiac]

Something tells me no.

If its just a timer for the manhunt then fine bt me cuz I finished that

[humble cedar]

is this goin to start season 11 or are they delaying again

[copper zodiac]

If u keep engaging with em in the same area yeah

[copper zodiac]

The latter, just ending S10

[craggy osprey]

thats kinda lame

[copper zodiac]

There’s always the 2 other DZ areas you can farm, unless u dont like its targeted loot or in need of Yaahl gear (which is a good 3p set to stealth against rogues)

[craggy osprey]

id rather not interact with others lmao

[copper zodiac]

Then u have to go stealth (sure they can still try to find u but it’s a lot easier to get by when u have over 90% Pulse resistance)

[lime night]

So how does dark winter drops? Farm dz landmarks or

[green cedar]

I guess that explains the higher failure rate. Thanks.

[narrow matrix]

You only get dz xp from killing rogue agents, not sure about shd agents, dz drops and extraction, the more items I extract in one sitting the more xp I get, loss on death from players and environment, dz level 50 apparently has dz proficiency caches which can drop dz named items

[narrow matrix]

U need a dz with smg targeted loot. Anything you wanna farm with respect to it’s region is targeted loot

[lime night]

Dz max level is 50 or?

[narrow matrix]

If it’s not there that day you have to wait

Can still get it in non TL but what’s the point

Max level is 50 for dz

Whenever you see people just standing at invaded dz checkpoint they’re just farming each other for manhunt xp, rogue timer xp, kill xp

[supple swift]

you can get dz exp farming landmarks

[narrow matrix]

They’ll also call extractions and cut the rope on each other, they’ll farm you if you’re alone tho. Sometimes you come across ones that are peaceful

No, you get shd xp

[supple swift]

then how did i get my character to 50 without killing a single player for the first few months of my playing div2

[narrow matrix]

Did u extract

[supple swift]

imma go to dz right now with a level 1

[craggy osprey]

is it better to avoid the invaided dz if i want to lvl up in peace ?

[narrow matrix]

Shd level or dz level?

[craggy osprey]

dz

[narrow matrix]

Invaded is harder overall cause of warhounds and mini tanks, more stuff to kill. Not by a long shot but it’s more time. As for avoiding hostility yea, shd turrets are disabled and people can just kill u outside the checkpoint

Black tusk will also ambush extractions… other factions do it too but they’re not as invasive and annoying

So yes I avoid the invaded dz if I can

I also avoid dz east

[sonic sun]

How do you avoid invaded dz?

[supple swift]

1. check map
2. go somewhere else

[prisma violet]

is something happening with the servers

because i cant play any of the manhunt missions

[storm river]

Weekly reset, season over

[prisma violet]

NEIN

so what do i do now

[storm river]

Anything other than manhunt

[prisma violet]

dats sadness

[civic dagger]

just seen lincoln memorial is targeting masks, is it possible to get coyotes from it/

[storm river]

Ofc

[civic dagger]

Ty, wasn't sure as I farmed jefferson like 25 times yesterday with no luck

[storm river]

Exotics have a 3% dropchance from named enemies so not unlikely that happens

On heroic

[copper zodiac]

S’there any other form of Armor regen via Armor kit than Survivalist

[oak talon]

this used to be the case long ago, but whenever the last dz changes were ages ago (the same change that made it so invaded dz BT no longer dropped dz credits), they made it so that landmarks no longer gave dz xp, on the pve end its only extracting and supply drops rewards, also some project from time to time are pve only, for the rest its all pvp that is the source now, and at a higher rate than before

so now on only pve end of dz its actually a long grind to 50, but if you join or fight a manhunt for a hour or two, then its actually faster than back then

[supple swift]

makes sense. i thought i was misremembering

[narrow kraken]

Or Play Countdown there U also have a Chance To get The Mask + U get Countdown Points around 225 or so then u can buy a exo chest Where U also have a little Chance To get one

[civic dagger]

I'm waiting to get a bit better gear before I drag people down as mine is pretty mid

Also no friends

[hallow plume]

yo how this thing block the settlement all the way there

[proud onyx]

I didn't get the doctor home drop in time, so I don't have the blueprint. How can I get the exotic now? Exotic caches, loot drops...?

[river dove]

i thought they were going to give it to everyone

since there was a bug earlier in the season

[proud onyx]

Yeah, but I didn't receive anything at that time, I was assuming it was another bug again

[river dove]

maybe when the update drops it will give it out

[oak talon]

i think they havent done that give it to everyone thing yet, my understanding was indeed that they will do it wwith next season, but that got delayed

[vocal fiber]

is it a bug? why cant I change directives

[oak talon]

and if you dont have access to its blueprint, it will likely not be available at all, as its also not in the normal pool, so likely not from caches either as is the case with catharsis

only way would be currently, to have it shared to you i would think, even if you dont keep it and share it back, you will have acces to the bp

[storm river]

All seasonal exotics go in the general pool when the season ends

[vestal bough]

so, i have 3 parts for nemesis, but still missing blueprint, but theres no museum invaded mission... toes that mean i need to wait or theres other way to get it ?

[oak talon]

@near umbra
so this is kinda what i mean, famas with 21 vs famas with 0 expertise grade, the orange number goes up and down by 21% (edit : + 21% WD)

[near umbra]

@oak talon and the amount it goes up and down, is multiplied/scaled off the white 44.2k, is it not?

[oak talon]

everything multiplies against base eventually, but the more important part is if it get diminished by going into already existing stats first or not, to jsut say it multiplies against base, is to imply it isnt additive to other stuff

[narrow kraken]

anyone else not able to change the difficulty levels or directives on the map?

[near umbra]

what i am merely trying to state is how to convert the % expertise upgrade to a net value. Why there is additional implication to that I am not sure.

44.2k * 0.21 = 9282, which is what I come to conclusion of

[summer scaffold]

sounds right to me

[oak talon]

with 21%, i meant + 21% WD, not a whole 21% of it, i should have been clearer in what i meant there

so for that build its 140130% wd of build + 21% WD off expertise

[fathom spruce]

half the game broke, we found new directive to play with "what's the exact meaning of words describing this calculation"

[ionic orbit]

any fix for this?

[visual karma]

The funny part! I cant fast travel back to DC from NY. It crashes all the time while pressing the fast travel option.

Can fast travel to anywhere in NY and to summit! but when fast traveling to DC. It crashes! any help?

[supple swift]

get invited by someone else with access

[ionic orbit]

does he start it in story mode? coz we've tried it earlier but when the host left, it's still locked

[supple swift]

host starts in story mode. actual mission start. invites player while mission underway.

[ionic orbit]

we actually did that earlier

the host started it on story mode, while in the mission itself, invited me and finished it with me. But after host left, it's still locked for me :<

[supple swift]

it will remain locked iirc. the workaround is simply for the player to access the actual mission (firewall spec requirement i believe

[oak talon]

it depends on where it broke, in this case its the breach side mission that isnt replayable unless you indeed join a 30 wt5 boosted char, for some its the mission diff that is the point it breaks, and then it is that you can fix that by doing pentagon on story on someone else world on story to get it to count, its 2 discreet and seperate ways it can break

when its the breach it states that locked by breach btw as it does there, when its the diff breaking then its locked by but under it its just empty, just to share that aswell

[nimble spruce]

Like iKia said, you need to run it at WT5 to unlock it (you'll also need to run the Pentagon mission on Story at WT5 to unlock the Darpa mission that comes after.). Easiest way is to find a friend who can create a new character and boost to WT5, takes less than 10 mins to set up.

[oak talon]

i did actually just say the issue without telling them how to fix it, didnt i, good looking out, as yeah, that is the fix

[open comet]

How dose dropping gear to a Friend work?

[oak talon]

you can share any gear/weapons/mods that you have gotten while together in a group, it has a timer aswell before its no longer shareable,
for gear in caches its that you have to be grouped at the point you get the cache and not when its opened (reward track contents from season, GE, league and projects all can be shared this way)
and no gear or caches that are bought from a vendor can be shared, nor any crafted stuff

[river dove]

do the seeker cluster mines just not go look for people?

i deploy them and they just roll around and do nothing

[foggy needle]

either throw them or if you place them at your feet, you need to activate the skill ago to have them go hunt (but its best to always throw them)

[open comet]

Ty

[river dove]

activate by just pressing the Q or E again?

i must be using them wrong. sometimes i throw them and just roll around and never target anyone even when there's enemies swarming around me

[foggy needle]

by press the skill button for seekers again so which ever button you have them on

[river dove]

roger

[narrow matrix]

just wanted to confirm, these are the exotic drop rates for bosses based on difficulty right?

Normal - 1%
Hard - 3%
Challenging - 5%
Heroic - 7%
Legendary - 10%

[oak talon]

only for specific drop source items, so stuff as coyote from jtc or mericless from hyenas and such

not a general drop rate

[foggy needle]

yea boss drop rates for for faction boss exotics

[narrow matrix]

oh

so is there a general drop rate or is that unknown?

[woven quiver]

The orange bars next to my ammo. That's the "stack" indicator right?

[narrow matrix]

yea for your specialization

[foggy needle]

general drop rate is known for exotics (the devs chart from a bit ago) target loot isnt known but believed to be ~1% .

[oak talon]

this is that one for general drops as in from any source, so for instance, if you get 2 drops, a normal source and a targeted loot source, you have 2 rolls of the dice so to say

[foggy needle]

that chart ^^

[oak talon]

my understanding is that this is both normal and target, they share % but different pools

[narrow matrix]

Okay thanks, is there a reason why its in decimal %? I didn't understand it at first

[foggy needle]

iirc devs said thats general and note target loot on stream @oak talon

[narrow matrix]

I was guessing its not a whole percentage based on that chart

[oak talon]

ok, i will look into that, im likely wrong, didnt keep up with it much lately

[foggy needle]

because exotic from a general drop is super rare, IE its not greater then whole numbers

[oak talon]

yeah its 0.0xx out of 100.0xx so to say

[narrow matrix]

okay thanks for the explanation, just wanted to make sure I was understanding it right

As for raid exotics, thats still like 1% or something?

[foggy needle]

ie exotic from target loot is ~1% drop chance but exotic from general pool in say DZ is 0.072% (per chart above)

well DH was data mined but not IH. but IH is believed to be the same as Dh so 10% chance of raid exotic from chest and a 1% chance for any exotic from boss drop.

[narrow matrix]

and thats any boss right, not final boss?

[foggy needle]

yes any boss

[oak talon]

i dont feel that bosses have an increase TL dropchance, i feel also that TL drop of exo is the same chance of normal source really, bosses dropping more is to me is more from the specific source dropping allot more than the rest

[narrow matrix]

okay thats good to know

[foggy needle]

well yea because 1% chance from TL vs say 7% chance heroic from specific source.

[oak talon]

oh wait, that is 1% for dh and ih bosses though, not a general rate

[foggy needle]

2 different things here Ikia there is 1% for general target loot exo drop and then raid has its own of 1% for boss drop

[narrow matrix]

so if someone wanted to farm exotics outside of exotic caches from countdown, weekly projects, global events for exotic components...

the best way would be to farm faction bosses... can you just keep killing the boss in the final room and grenading yourself or do you have to farm the mission itself? I tried this once and nothing was dropping (boss loot)

[foggy needle]

well best WAS countdown and summit for exotics. the anderson mission can beat it though atm

specific boss/ faction drop chance is much lower then target loot because its only 1 chance (IE the boss it self) vs target loot is a whole lot of chances as everything can drop target loot

[narrow matrix]

so once you kill the boss in a mission you have to restart the mission to get that 7% chance from heroic per say

for faction bosses

[foggy needle]

yes and only the FINAL boss has that chance. vs target loot being every single kill/ chest boss from said mission. (for example)

[oak talon]

i dont agree with 1% general rate from TL drops, that would be 1 every 3/4 countdowns from TL, that is way above the ingame rate

[foggy needle]

it was datamined Ikia

also its ~1% chance

1 sec ill DM you the source

[narrow matrix]

So coyotes mask, is that applicable to all hyena bosses or just Coyote in JTC?

I had gotten my first coyotes mask from the boss in Bank headquarters

[oak talon]

for ih and dh it is datamined, i don't belive i have ever seen TL rate to exo coming from any ingame datamining? unless you can point me to a source

[foggy needle]

coyotes is not a faction drop, just a coyotes boss drop. (so bad example lol)

for DH its datamined, but ive never seen IH datamine fyi, you got a source on that one? i have the source of TL 1 sec

[narrow matrix]

For DH, Buddy and Lucy basically give a 2% chance of any exotic dropping correct...

[foggy needle]

ummm well not sure if each one drops one there

[valid bronze]

They both drop loot I know that

[foggy needle]

also Raid bosses dont drop all exotics but have a good handful (forgot exact loot table for raid bosses)

[valid bronze]

I think can't remember now lol

[narrow matrix]

so is chatterbox a faction exotic?

[coarse pelican]

yes

[foggy needle]

eh no its a crafted so not tied to faction

[narrow matrix]

so just the parts pretty much

[foggy needle]

target loot

[valid bronze]

Parts aren't from enemies

They are from key locked boxes

[foggy needle]

^^

[narrow matrix]

cool, thank you guys @foggy needle @oak talon for all the info... very complex lol

[foggy needle]

each drop source can drop an exotic FYI so in THEORY 1 mission boss can drop 4 exotics
1 Faction, 1 Target loot, 1 final Mission boss, 1 General. = 4 exotics dropped at once (extremely rare)

[valid bronze]

Has there been a video of that happening?

Only thing I've personally gotten is an exotic from floor completion and 1 from the boss

[coarse pelican]

u can technically get an exotic anywhere minus the raid exclusives

I've gotten most of mine from Countdown with targeted loot but there are some cases of world drops

[foggy needle]

not that i know of but ive seen a 3 exo drop picture 😛

[lime night]

Can normal vector,not dark winter drop with talent perfect killer?

[foggy needle]

perfect talents are ONLY for that named item, so no

[valid bronze]

I got a godrolled lady death on normal difficulty in open world from a random red enemy

[valid bronze]

That's awesome

[foggy needle]

that is either the base exo drop chance OR target loot at work there.

[valid bronze]

Don't think it was target loot but could be wrong don't remember

I took a video of it I'll check later to see if I have it still

[fresh vault]

Is the game totally fucked up right now? I just crashed twice in the world map and there's no option to change world difficulty

Two crashes in the span of a couple minutes

[supple swift]

55

[narrow matrix]

By the way is Anderson still working for exotics after the season ended? Same for loot goblin for specials? They were active last night (Christmas loot)

[coarse pelican]

Division 2 has always been prone to crashing alot

[coarse pelican]

haven't checked but most likely not

[vagrant kelp]

I had a Christmas loot goblin show up late last night while doing a mission in new york

[supple swift]

its no longer in the map

[narrow matrix]

Rip on carol

[lime night]

Is it out of the game? After the reset

[full aurora]

Yes it is.
Playing on PS5.
No global settings and moving the cursor to countdown is insta-crashing the game 100%.

New highscore Ubisoft.
Now they don't even need a patch to f*** the game...

[narrow matrix]

apparently

[fresh vault]

Yeah, you'd think this is a new high but I remember back in the day people getting banned for accidentally "exploiting" a bug that would make them weaker and on WONY release day some of the NPCs that pushed main quests forward wouldn't even work soooo...

[narrow kraken]

What am I missing out on without getting the dlc? And is it needed to get the full experience of the division 2?

[fresh vault]

WONY is more of an expansion than a generic "DLC". So you're missing out on late game content, lots of missions, good portion of the game, etc.

[tepid gulch]

How many weeks has it been since Grand Washington Hotel was one of the invaded missions of the week?

[foggy needle]

not sure but its random when it becomes invaded. longest wait ive seen is 7 weeks

[tepid gulch]

Well, I've been waiting for it, so its been at least 4, but its good to have a number I can hope for now

[foggy needle]

its still RNG, 7 weeks is just the longest ive personally seen FYI

[sterile plover]

Is it not possible to set world difficulty or directives anymore ? anyone know ?

[foggy needle]

theres a bug going around atm, due to the server reset,

[sterile plover]

blimey... what they break this time !

[river dove]

I followed that exploit protection crash fix from Reddit and haven’t crashed once in 3 days

A new record for me ha

[narrow kraken]

I also have no online friends

Is The new season Pass there?

[tepid gulch]

Nope, delayed again

[fallow inlet]

Hey Ikia, Azurmen,

[open comet]

Can the tdi kart still drop been farming for ages and ain’t got one

[tepid gulch]

Not sure if Ps4 loot focus is on a different cycle then pc, but I haven't seen pistol focus in 2 weeks

and DZ loot targetting feels rough at best. Its hard to get the drops you want. Haven't gotten a single Apartment drop in 6 hours of SMG targetted farming

[nimble spruce]

The Kard Custom is a dz/named cache exclusive, if you've been farming in LZ you won't find it

[narrow kraken]

Is The new brand there.

?

[tepid gulch]

TU17 delayed

[narrow kraken]

Ok

[open comet]

@tepid gulch if someone already has it can they get it from countdown or summit targeted loot?

[tepid gulch]

Oh you mean the Kard?

[open comet]

Yea

[tepid gulch]

no, DZ or named cache only

[open comet]

Dam

[tepid gulch]

For the dodge city holster, are the substats set (weapon handling/headshot damage) or are they randomly rolled? Not the % but the stats themselves, for example could I farm up a dodge city holster with crit chance/damage?

[nimble spruce]

They're fixed for all exotics

[tepid gulch]

Splendid, tyvm. Reddit was absolutely no help answering that question

[narrow kraken]

Fixed, Headshot and Weaponhandling

[narrow matrix]

Can you redo the dodge city holster project on the same character by tossing the one you have on another character?

[nimble spruce]

Yep, I know at least one player who refarms it regularly for the exotic components

[civic dagger]

this sounds hella stupid but can you not use directives in dc?

[nimble spruce]

Yeah it's bugged now

[civic dagger]

Ahh okay makes sense, thought I was going crazy lol

[nimble spruce]

Directives are season-specific and they let the season stop without ending it properly, it's broken a few things

[narrow matrix]

Okay that’s great, thank you

[nimble spruce]

Apparently they're going to extend the season again though, there should be an emergency patch soon

[rare flame]

Can Bighorn drop on any of the boss floors in Legendary summit or only floor 100?

[nimble spruce]

It can drop from any named enemy on legendary difficulty (but never as part of target loot)

[rare flame]

Thanks, back to the grind.

[oak talon]

not any named, just to be pedantic, but the final named of a boss floor, so for that one you are better off at floor 10 with 1 boss, than floor 90 with 3 nameds of which only one is a boss that can drop it

[nimble spruce]

Hmm, always more to learn in this game - thanks iKia

[rare flame]

oh good point, I was thinking about going to 90 for 3 chances. I'll stick to 10

[narrow kraken]

When Come an Update to fix this shit?

[oak talon]

🔜 ™️

[tepid gulch]

When it's ready

[narrow kraken]

Sad im The Division 2 addicted and I can't played Well how can i spent my time now?

[oak talon]

you can still play, its not completely broken

[storm river]

division 1 😉

[nova flower]

division 1....dang i might need to reinstall and load in survival. miss that stress

[oak talon]

openworld stuff isnt worth it atm if you are stuck on low diff and no directives as those are broken, but countdown and summit still work as they should

[river dove]

i'm just doing cp4s

because they are fun to me 💪

and i still need blueprints

[narrow kraken]

🤢 its so laggy i have all Ubisoft Games complet in Game and Trophys

Now i Play Fortnite 🤢🤢

I cant go on The map My Game Crashed Always If I Go on the map

[storm river]

division 1 laggy? what?

works fine for me

[narrow kraken]

Yes Or Not ? The Last time I played it was 2020

Idk Its Always lag Sometimes i cant move my Character

[cold forge]

[copper zodiac]

[cold forge]

Just gonna farm brand sets and lvl em fast in normal missions, ez pz

Need to get that expertise higher fr

[river dove]

people constantly complain about crashing, i mention 3 times a day about crash fix that is working and no one says anything, continues complaining lol

[cold forge]

Technician smash everyone at heroic ngl.

[narrow kraken]

Haha L

[nimble spruce]

different people crash for different reasons - the 'exploit protection' fix you used works for some people but not everyone. Also, today everyone who has previously completed the manhunt is crashing every time they let the Anderson mission appear on their world map. No fix for that one at all, just have to work around it.

[golden geode]

@nimble spruce how would you work around it

so it only crashes for completed manhuts then

[nimble spruce]

make sure the anderson mission doesn't appear on your map (ie, if you want to go to summit or something zoom in and scroll very carefully around)

[golden geode]

so if count down dosent apear it wont crash out at all

[nimble spruce]

not countdown but the anderson mission very very slightly to the right of countdown

[golden geode]

so to use countdown do it in a way that that missiion doesnt show

[nimble spruce]

yeah you can go through matchmaking tab if you can't manage to place your map perfectly

[golden geode]

in the same way to use DZ east do it zoom in

[nimble spruce]

although I'm seeing other crashes reported regarding countdown, so even if you get there it might still crash during the game

[golden geode]

so it sounds like the count down area and icon triggering the crashes then

? how come on my console version i can go in that area and it doesnt crash

[nimble spruce]

have you done the manhunt on your console?

[golden geode]

i never finished the manhunt on there if that helps

[nimble spruce]

that's why then

[golden geode]

no didnt do any of it on there

so the crash is trigger only if the anderson icon is on the map

[carmine flicker]

As a console player I’ve done the manhunt and I can play countdown through the map. The pc version has the most major issues but I’ve seen a few bugs here and there on console

[golden geode]

@carmine flicker do you have both versions as well then

[carmine flicker]

No just console

[nimble spruce]

just done some testing on this and it seems like it is the Countdown icon itself, not the point just to the right of it where the Anderson manhunt icon used to be, that is causing the problem. Even with only half the countdown icon visible on the right side of the screen it still crashed. I guess matchmaking is the only way in for now.

[golden geode]

so by ending the season they have broken the icon then

@nimble spruce so the icon is not there but the map is expecting it to be thats whats causeing the crash then technicaly

[copper zodiac]

fastball: where can I find a lot of LMG enemies in open world (gunner stage 4)

[nimble spruce]

outcast or true sons CP4s will usually have a few, open world activities will do too.

[copper zodiac]

thx, needed to pick out like a few rn

[lime night]

is this guy with the biggest rank on watch?

[noble brook]

Guys what are a bunch of hunters doing at the top floor of summit?

[sharp granite]

they're just chilling

having a little party

[noble brook]

[carmine flicker]

I heard there was a crashed satellite or something up there so maybe the hunters came from that and are aliens

[copper zodiac]

whats the best place to farm gear other countdown, game just crashed by just me hovering my mouse over it lol

[golden geode]

every one is haveing thagt

[worn pilot]

How do I kill all year one hunters

[oak talon]

if nothing else, its well established in div lore that hunters like to be on top of buildings, so theres that

[oak talon]

you can still use the matchmaker tab to matchmake into countdown, most right tab on the mapscreen

[copper zodiac]

good to know, that reminds me..., need to change my TL

[oak talon]

its a little out of date, but still valid, just watch a whole section before starting that hunter, as he sometimes doesnt say if it night only till further in
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghBYr6VFVbg

and dont watch any of his other stuff if you dont want bad info

[carmine flicker]

Question: can We get on Playstation a Advanced sensitivity ? Bc i its to slow and im already Play on 20 ?

[storm river]

Google guides

[narrow matrix]

No? It could be your dead zone for the sticks…

[lime night]

can this chest drop with perfect version of this talent?

[narrow matrix]

How high do you need it 🫠

[narrow kraken]

Md dead Zone is 0

[narrow matrix]

Yes

[cedar tide]

I think Hunter Killer has Perfect Intimidate

[narrow matrix]

Golan brand

[dim crag]

You need to kill the hunters

[narrow kraken]

It feels Like i would Play on 5 or 4

[dim crag]

But Intimidate is kinda weird after the nerf

[narrow matrix]

Must be your sticks then, get some compressed air in a can and blow it into the sticks

They get gummed up

[narrow kraken]

I got this Controller new maybe 1 week old

[narrow matrix]

Yea well

Sonys not known for quality control

They’re vermin I tell ya

[narrow kraken]

Ok

[narrow matrix]

My ps5 controller is loose … brand new too makes creaking noises when you grip it

Just sony being mongrels

[civic dagger]

how does the recalibration library work? I can sacrifice weapons/armours to "learn" the attributes and then upgrade them to the max so when i recalibrate something to have a attribute i want its automatically maxed?

[narrow matrix]

There’s another option but I really don’t advise you do it unless you have compressed air

Pull the sticks up but don’t twist them

[narrow kraken]

https://youtu.be/K4OzZaLaELs

[narrow matrix]

You’ll just end up having to keep doing it once you start, but it’s a solution if there’s something in there

[civic dagger]

ty

Aklso is world tier still a thing or is that replaced with difficulty?

[copper zodiac]

whats a good LMG to use in general outside of exotics
am at the crafting bench and got these choices:

Sleipnir
M60
MG5
MK46

[elfin cloud]

So

Did the manhunt mission Anderson manhunt did was it exotic?

[supple swift]

sleipnir

[narrow matrix]

World tier was like level 30.1 - 30.5

You’re now level 40 once you kill keener and so world tiers no longer exist

But normal difficulty is pretty much world tier 1 as story mode is it’s own difficulty

[jade robin]

Is Glass Cannon a good attribute for turret/ drone build? 30% plus damage

[narrow matrix]

Yes and no

Kinetic momentum is my preference cause you don’t have the damage debuff

[clever ocean]

yeah glass cannon is generally good on certain skill builds since you don't really have other ways to scale the damage and you don't need to "trade" with them as much.

[narrow matrix]

You’d use glass cannon on skills like Chem launcher which kinetic momentum doesn’t work on

Glass cannon is good on mortar turret for example so you don’t have downtime on dmg

[carmine flicker]

If you want damage glass cannon

Safety kinetic momentum

But you’re already gonna die in a few shots so I just ask what’s the point

Moar damage

[narrow matrix]

A good death

[jade robin]

How do you get the skill damage mod?

[narrow matrix]

Farm skill mods

[carmine flicker]

There isn’t any

[jade robin]

Summit it is then 😂

[narrow matrix]

Also… don’t run perfect glass cannon, it’s a waste of a brand bonus

[carmine flicker]

If you’re talking about gear mods. Skill mods (the ones you put on skills) do have it

[narrow matrix]

Regular glass cannon is 25% not 30%

[jade robin]

I will either use Kinetic Momentum or Glass Canon

I’m on my quest to find the Bee pistol first

The damage stack for that pistol is insane

[carmine flicker]

Kinetic momentum at full stacks is a 15% (*x for amount of full stack skills) skill damage increase

And skill damage is additive

Glass cannon is an amplifier, aka multiplicative

[jade robin]

So it adds 30% to what ever number my skill damage is, right?

[carmine flicker]

Oh wait

Total skill damage

Not skill damage

So they’re both multiplicative

[jade robin]

So times 1.3?

[carmine flicker]

It adds 30% to the damage you deal

So you deal 100 (after things that increase base damage such as skill damage) damage you deal 130 damage

[jade robin]

Eh, glass canon gives more dmg buff then, but I will receive 1.6x more damage

I mean I mostly sit behind cover when I deployed my turret and drone anyway

[narrow matrix]

depends on the distance you are from your targets btw

if you're further I believe there will be dmg drop off

[carmine flicker]

Remember it is a 60% amp, so as I said aka multiplicative

For pgc

Plus I don’t think enemies have damage drop off

There was a discussion about this the other day but I think the result was inconclusive

[foggy needle]

Just FYI GC/ PGC and KM are very close in terms of skill damage. GC wins in overall damage if you also use your weapon for dps though

[carmine flicker]

Plus with kinetic momentum you have to build stacks which won’t matter too much in the long run since drone/turret last a long time

[foggy needle]

yup GC or KM are both great options, it just depends on playstyle

[fallow inlet]

Hey Doom,

[gray spruce]

So, I'm still a Challenging Player... Because I can't easily do Rogue Agents on this difficulty, and Aerial Recons are annoying. And the Stun Baton Hyenas ruin my soul. When did ya'll feel confident moving up to heroic?

[narrow matrix]

I think first you should learn how to counter said enemies

For the baton hyenas, they have a weak point on their left thigh that has a canister of drugs in it, if you shoot it them and all enemies nearby them will get high and disoriented. They have no armor plating except on their heads . But they have an actual armor bar

Difference is armor plating is like actual Kevlar or body armor

Armor bar is like another health bar

[gray spruce]

I just never notice the Stun Baton Hyenas until they're running up behind me... That's a situational awareness thing. Rogue Agents... I always get smacked by those.

[narrow matrix]

Don’t let the rushers get close, that goes for all factions, they’re weaker than all other archetypes but they do a ton of damage,

True sons and black tusk imo are the most dangerous cause they can and will 1 shot you

For rogue agents I have a few recommendations

1. if you’re dpsing run some sort of skill that will distract them, I run either decoy, blinder firefly or banshee pulse.

This gives you time to damage them without them coming after you immediately

You can also use your specialization grenades, foam grenades and flashbang a being the best

[gray spruce]

I really don't know why I'm strill using the Flamethrower Specialization... I mean, the shield is nicer, but I think I liked Gunner's AoK and Nade better.

And I've been meaning to move away from Shield/Striker combo for my solo play, but I really don't haven't messed around to see what feels right for me yet. How is Decoy, besides just being a distraction deployable?

[narrow matrix]

Firewall should be used for close range builds as most buffs for it come from being up close

If you’re playing long range I prefer sharpshooter or gunner

Sharpshooter is really nice but the ammo regen from gunner is miles better

Decoy you can hold whatever skill button that is and throw it to wherever you think will be most distracting

If you throw it behind a barrier or something the enemies can’t shoot it but will still be distracted

I’ve noticed recently that the decoy will immediately draw the attention of enemies off you allowing you to run by them with ease but don’t abuse this thinking it will keep you safe, I use it if I need to get to an objective or need to get away

Continuing on rogues,

Your best friend is the Scorpio, don’t engage them all at once, get one of their aggro, run to a safe concealed location and take them down one by one, most accomplish this by running back out the room and they’ll follow

I like using an smg with unwavering and while they’re blinded, distracted or foamed I empty as many bullets I can into their head. With enough success this will kill them or at least deplete all their armor in 2 mags

The next best thing is focus talent with red build and hard hitting rifle with 8x scope, Ranger, flatline or boomerang, rifleman can work to

[gray spruce]

I still haven't gotten a Scorpio, the universe hates me. I gotta do some more farming. And I'm generally danger close to people with a SMG, using Up Close & Personal.

[narrow matrix]

Then there’s a skill build, combined arms as your talent, 3 piece empress, kinetic momentum, wyvern and 2 hana u

[gray spruce]

I just have been grinding CPs to get my crafting recipes so I can optimize my gear and maybe get some decent damage.

[narrow matrix]

Using test subject will allow you shred them if you set both drone and turret on one of them

The other skill for having an advantage is the shock trap but it does have a long cooldown (depletes as the skill is active) and once they step on traps and leave a gap then it’s kinda useless

I personally prefer decoy and blinder firefly… shield is good as well. Make sure you have revive hive

How I got used to heroic was calling for backup and directives. The other players were there to help, but I had the right build and pulled my weight

So if you want you can ditch challenging and do that

[floral kettle]

anyone know what backpack this is?

[thin bolt]

Hi New player. Anyone down to show me the ropes

[vagrant kelp]

You know when you light up like you've leveled? I'm in NY lvl 40 and see this with no idea what it is for. Anyone know? It's been driving me nuts to figure out lol

[sour mortar]

You hit the next lvl. You see the light thing every time you hit a SHD lvl

You get a watch point and a small health boost

Would doing countdown on heroic be my best bet for trying to get the waveform exotic?

[vital laurel]

Anyone up for raid DH

[tulip fiber]

Countdown is best for loot, yeah. Target holsters. Challenging may be better for matchmaking though.

[somber plinth]

Alright thx

[golden geode]

Are people just using non manhunt characters to get into countdown

[nimble spruce]

If you want to start your own then yeah, but matchmaking for it should work for everyone.

Matchmaking tab doesn't crash.

[gilded plume]

So someone say difficulty and directive are bug?

[cold forge]

Countdowns nowdays be like:

Dude spamms everyone through walls

@wooden pawn oppinions?

[gilded plume]

What was he doing

Trying to look bussy ?

[stuck frigate]

Waiting for my friend to level up, is there any way I can make some quick cash (lvl30) waiting for WT1... I'm doing bounties, but there are only so much a day. Also the hostage ones aren't really giving alot of cash.

[gilded plume]

Selling stuff work

Your not gonna keep all those lv 30 anyway

[earnest mirage]

Apologies if this has already been covered - I don't read every single message on here.
Is shepherding broken? 🤔

[stuck frigate]

Yeah, I understand that, I'm selling everything I come across 🙂 Thank you

[gritty iris]

Is there anyone from technical support division 2?

[nimble spruce]

In here? No. Devs tend to respond on twitter more than anyone else. If you're crashing every time you open the map or missing your directives or something then that's a known issue affecting almost everyone.

[gritty iris]

@nimble spruceThank you. Division two is apparently very crooked and the developers are without hands, since they cannot do it. After division one, the opinion of Ubisoft fell strongly. A shame. Thanks again, I left, and it's time to delete the game in disgrace))

[nimble spruce]

The biggest problems are new and likely to be fixed within a few days, if that helps.

[gritty iris]

@nimble spruceTH

[narrow matrix]

If you wanted to you could work on leveling up your specializations

[craggy osprey]

only place to get yall gear is dz and conflict ?

[foggy needle]

crafted and sometimes DZ + clan vendor

[craggy osprey]

but crafted means i get the gear piece filaments from dismantling yall that i get from dz lmao

[foggy needle]

correct lol

[craggy osprey]

how does the clan system work ? do you have to lvl up your clan by gaining xp or ?

3 years ? since i was a part of a clan

[foggy needle]

dont remember how to level up a clan, just join a max level clan.

[nimble spruce]

Yeah you get clan xp by gaining normal xp and by completing clan projects

[craggy osprey]

guess ill try to find a inactive clan then to get the clan vendor

[verbal delta]

hey guys, where is the global setting? I cant find it

[foggy needle]

once at end game, its a map setting (look at hotkeys at bottom of map)

[rich elbow]

It’s gone right now

[stuck frigate]

Good call, too. Thanks.

[verbal delta]

ty

[narrow matrix]

Accuracy is what makes the reticule smaller / tighter right ? - on particularly marksman rifles - no scope you’d get the reticule to bloom faster?

[foggy needle]

yes and yes

[gray spruce]

So, if I didn't get the Scorpio through the Season 9 Pass, is it still in the World Drop table for places like Summit with Target farming?

[wispy merlin]

yes because they put it in general loot pool after s9 ended

or the season it released. i don't think it was s9

[foggy needle]

@gray spruceFYI, All exotics are in the normal target loot pool except:
---Raid exotics and Big horn are exclusive to their content.
---Current season exotics, just require being unlocked viva season track 1st.
---Past season exotics are automatically added to general loot pool after their season.
---Crafted exotics require owning the blueprint 1st.
---Exotic caches can drop any exotic that is currently unlocked for your target loot pool.

[gray spruce]

Well then, back into the Summit for me. I'm tired of CP grinding for Blueprints.

[sleek terrace]

what's the best floor range to grind on summit?

[nimble spruce]

I've always had a fondness for floors 34-36

[sleek terrace]

ah I'm currently doing my first run and I just made it to floor 60 wanted to know for future reference

[nimble spruce]

Yeah I was joking, there's certain farming methods for specific boss floors (mainly 10, 90 and 100) but I've never heard anyone actually prefer a certain range, mostly because it's not really possible to go down more than 3 levels (by wiping) except by going all the way back to the start.

[obtuse orchid]

Hi i have a question is the SVD exotic sniper in loot pool from marksman rifle ?

because in the past 2 days i have been farming Countdown, open world and summit for this exotic sniper Rifle but is not dropping for me at all. Is it bug or something ?

[sleek terrace]

just luck, I've had like 5 of them assuming this is the dread edict you're talking about

[obtuse orchid]

yes indeed Sir is dread edict

[valid bronze]

Catharsis is bugged too

[narrow matrix]

I think for me certain ranges have a certain layout…

Floors 1-10 are usually the construction area for me

[craggy osprey]

uhh better chance of getting yall in dz if certain gear piece is the target loot? like chest ?

[valid bronze]

Yes

[foggy needle]

yea in that it acts as a crafted exotic atm

[foggy needle]

i have a fondness in floor 69 myself. 😎

[sleek terrace]

On that floor rn

[foggy needle]

heyo!

[narrow kraken]

My Game does Crashing If im nearly To Countdown

[narrow kraken]

When do The td2 Guys Fix this game?

[narrow matrix]

Yea it’s a known issue atm

[lucid hare]

[narrow matrix]

Huh?

[foggy needle]

known issue, and it will be fixed when they fix it @lunar cypress

[narrow matrix]

You bought the spec but you have to earn the points for it

[lucid hare]

[narrow matrix]

[lucid hare]

I have the Warlods of new york

[foggy needle]

you bought the spec only. you can still do the quests for the rewards BUT dont need to do them anymore to unlock the spec. @lucid hare

[narrow matrix]

I didn’t even know I could buy them

[narrow kraken]

Oh idk how i got The other i Just bought The WoN Pack thats The only one which i bought But i've The other

[lucid hare]

Yeah, but how do I get the points to the spec

[narrow matrix]

The quests were fun

You do bounties, invaded missions or level up

[foggy needle]

just like normal, by farming XP with the spec

[lucid hare]

Oh, seriously?

[narrow matrix]

Yea
