Most do it to help people get thr raid exclusives some do it just cause
Also cause fir iron horse there is a gun called the regulus and you must do a project for it and it requires you to go through Iron horse a couple times
Do i need to finish the whole raid to open the last box? Ps. I don't have any keys. And does the bosses in raid drops keys or do i have to find those boxes?
And is the EB only dark hour raid exclusive like regulus in iron horse.
Yes
Some raid bosses drop keys
The rest of the keys are found in cases
Yes
Ravenous is also a IH raid exclusive
Do i need to open it for myself or does the last raid box work as dc lockboxes?
You gotta open it yourself
But others can drop their loot they got
So if someone has a EB they can hand it to you
Only the last boss, razorback and morazova.
Headshot dmg only 8%atm not god roll
I said "some" but thanks for the names
Makes it so they know which bosses
You or anyone in the team can open the crate and they can share what comes out with anyone in the group when they opened it.
Then i will try today because on discovery mostly game starts at the last checkpoint.
You can only get it on normal
Not discovery
No crate in discovery
Really? Then i have to find group from the channel
Correct
marksman guns should also have out of cover if i can roll is is it the best for snipers?
9 times outa 10 someone will get it and drop it if you ask for it
Wait i also heard that it will be available in dz drops in season 11 is it true
Yes
Don't try DZ
The raid will be much better for you
Yeah i know most of the people are very helping.
Next season DZ is gonna be a warzone
Yeah i also struggling right now in east dz i think it will be too hard for me to get from dz i will definitely try raid tomorrow on normal mode.
Be sure to have a strong dps build. See pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice
Yes standard red should do
Dark hours is just a big dps check you only need 1 guy with jammer build for razorback
Iron horse unless your experienced stay red as well
Yes i will surely use dps build thanks @rain echo, @hallow raptor and @late oar.
And be honest when raiding if you don't know the mechanics just ask people will be more then happy to explain it to you
If you ever need build help just either @ me in #td2-build-advice or ask skarlet to annoy me enough to see what's up
Sure
#td2-build-advice is probably best its got every build and what you need thanks to raucey
Some of the builds may be a lil outdated but should still work
"Giant dad"
If you know you know

uhm what is effective way to improve proficiency ? Keep using 1 weapon to the end ?
and is proficiency important ?
Which drone is good to use in both pve and pvp?
I tend to run dta instead. Tons of times youll shoot people in cover with MMRs
Striker is good for proccing insync, other than that they really dont cross over well. Defender is good for pvp, fixer is okay in pve
So I guess the season manhunt main bounties aren't meant to be soloed?
I soloed all 4 on heroic š¤·āāļø died a few times but wasnt too bad
Defender is good in both pve and pvp? Since it doesn't rest too much
I had to take like 30 mins on each section and didnt even make it to the target
It works for pve but there are better options.
third section in I got downed
Generally the pve meta is not getting shot in the first place. Striker drone can pull aggro off you @turbid igloo
Whereas pvp is reducing damage/tanking damage
Striker drone kinda sucks in pvp but have you imaginated a group of 4 Striker drones?
T6 drones are a pain in pvp
My drone got destroyed really quickly in my runs, bad build I guess?
T6?
No, they have very little health with no skill tiers
Them dying means that its doing its job, pulling aggro away from you
Skill tier 6
I don't really have an official build though I just finished the expansion and unlocked all the manhunt bounties, but yea I'm kinda stuck now
Well if you dont have a coherent build you cant expect to solo challenging or heroic, nevermind the season bounties
So what should my next step be from here? Feel like there is little chance of me finishing this season before it sends, which is w/e I guess.
yes drone and turret is hurt, but the reason they dont useful, is emp pulse can destroy them immediately, drone hp is pretty low so it can easy to destroy shooting by dps, also they require a really open battlefield, and they don't have good chasing / control ability
not even mention nego is biggest counter, so let say tu17 emp pulse go shit, drone turret won't go top tier
@storm river is fixer good for both pve and pvp or only for pve?
it's shit
Oh
Is defender drone good for both tho?
good for pvp
My damage reduction is 30% rn
Heya!
What's the most efficient-brainafk-xp farming method? best to do while netflix ^^
Pve
For pve rn, in pvp it's 15%
run around intercept convoys in the world, on a world difficulty + directives as high as you feel like are still going like a breeze (for some this'll be heroic with 5 directives or maybe 3-4, for some it might mean dropping to challenging)
thanks @fathom spruce
very zen, very predictable, little gameplay effort, usually what I do when distracted with other stuff or watching YT or movies and whatnot
don't feel bad for scaling down difficulty to challenging if it means you do them a lot quicker with your build, but ideally try to keep like 3-4 directives at least
they're great to do because they give double the XP of what they state they'd give
oh! nice - 2x xp is more than welcome š
yeah you get like about as much from a convoy as a control point except it's massively quicker of course, especially once you know where the spawns are likely going to come from (and both/all waves are always from the same spot too)
no stakes either, sometimes you didn't look and another patrol ran into you and you died, whoop go again from another safe house
ideally you have world's CPs reset btw so they're all hostile so as many convoys can spawn as possible
thanks a lot man, i'll give it a try
enjoy the netflix & XP! :D
Hey Datz, Buddha,3am,
HOI SAPH
Is defender drone + engineer hive a good build?
That just buff to tank and anyone else soo..
Imagine one or two guys with high damage on iron horse and everyone else stacking defender on them with tier 6
Booster hive is good
BTSU gloves if you want overcharge for your team and drone
Crack hive (artificer) isn't good so don't use crack hive
Having a real hard time beating vivian on hard for some reason, do the enemy spawns never end on hard?
Where can i get BTSU gloves?
Anywhere
It's in the loot pool
I got it from a CP so you could try a glove targeted loot area with a CP
What does CP means? The only CP i know is that one illegal crime thing
Control points
Oh ok
Thx for the info
Also is defensor drone good for pve?
or CD with gloves as target loot
Is the sniper drone (that one which marks enemies) good?
Not at all
Striker drone is best
For pve
Even better with a skill build
You can try a banshee pulse if you have gunner and are running a dps build or something
Just spent 3300 watch points to max out my alloys⦠lol, itās fun to spend 12-14 million on gear and guns just to deconstruct themā¦. Crafted the rest. š¤£šš
@late oar how does booster hive works
Well it's all in the name and description but it buffs your team
It's a better hive for when your in a team
In which way? Damage defense or what does it buff
Idk how gun handling works
As a buff
I have to check but I believe it is defense
Makes your weapon more accurate
Oh so the accuracy get's boosted?
Now I get to run another character through wony again for watch points. Woot Woot!
Good luck!
Well yes
So your bullets don't go everywhere
Simple, Iāve done it like 12 or 13 times in the last few monthsā¦
Awesome
Useful for snipers and shotguns
Keep that grind buddha
Is it meh or good on solo?
YES for automatic weapons
I'm with lady death
Gives me something to do⦠starting to get bored waiting for season 11ā¦
Lady death is a good exotic
Better in dps builds
BTSU is really good for skill builds with hive
Noice =w=
My crit chance is 40 or 43 rn
My crit damage is 74%
Lady death makes it even better
Awesome skarlet
It's erm...Finisher
You want more crit dmg but if you want me to help your build just ask skarlet to bug me or @ me in #td2-build-advice
Gotta pump those numbers up if youre running a damage build
That's exactly what i'm running
In that case yeah pump those numbers up
Is booster hive good for solo?
Is it a high end build or a gear set?
Crit dmg is minimum 100
Me trying to get The setup again
High end build..? Idk i have one exotic which is hunter bag and it's helping me
For a green set, with SMGS and a high end set its way higher
I get 60 chance and 130 dmg with hf+memento
Status effect build huh?
Good combo
Yeep
Oh sorry
That's future initiative not eclipse
I mean it's a status effect build idk why no eclipse
Is firefly good to use on pve and pvp?
You can only recalibrate one attribute on a item?
Awesome
Even more awesome
Google, what's the definition of farming? Google:
Tier 3 fixer drone can help you in most of the moments?
What day do the invaded missions change?
Every 7 days (1 week)
@turbid igloo icon looks like thay
Tuesdays
Understandable, have a good day
Can I start grinding side missions now? Iām 25
@storm river is the healing seeker good?
Yes
Ty
Is there a way that I can turn off hearing other player's mics?
Don't wanna hear the trash talk in pvp in the DZ.
Open the in-game menu. Select the Social tile. Highlight the player you wish to mute. Select the Mute Player option.
or - Head to the main menu and select Settings.
- Enter the Audio submenu.
- Toggle the Disable VoIP setting to Yes.
Sometimes i still ask myself if defender drone is meh or good in pve aswell as pvp
the defender?
it can be. when i use it i make sure i have 3 skill tiers on my build and then use future perfect to get it to 6 skill tiers and overcharge
Holy
I bet overcharge makes defender drone more than OP
Does glove targetted loot have a chance to give BTSU?
yea target gloves
15 seconds of pure immortality
yup
Imagine on pvp
saved my arse. i came so close to dying
So toggling the disable voip will rid of all player's mics?
yeah
How can I do countdown in a local server?
What's the build
it was memento, brazos all red mask, brazos picaros holster w armor and chc, grupo obliterate chest, foxes prayers and contractors gloves. and technician spec for the third skill tier
so 2 armor cores, 3 skill tiers and 6 red cores
damage is lacking though
but it works for having a little fun with running around with defender drone
Gotcha
So how can I get more gear brands in the list of gear to research for expertise?
Everything that is "expertise-able" is already in the Expertise tab at the crafting station. Or what list do you mean?
farm for it in countdown and donate everything to the proficiency/expertise
or use it a lot until its proficient
For example, I only have 8 masks to research. I donāt see the brand that Iām currently wearing
which is a huge pain'
the waveform holster is in general loot pool?
the masks are only named masks
the gloves and holsters and chests and backpacks and masks. only named items
the brands are lower down the list
Well thatās dumb. Ok well thanks
its better than if you had to profiency every brand set and gear set's mask. when you level up a gear pr brand set it affects all 6 pieces in it at the same time
I get that but I donāt see that brand but itās cool thought. Thank you though
Which one is better to use? Defender drone + revive hive or repair chem+ defender drone?
defender drone isnt that great unless you have a lot of skill tiers. it doesnt last very long and the cooldown isnt very quick. reviver hive is a really good failsafe and chem heals are pretty good even with no skill tiers
Does hazard protection counter riot foam?
Yes
How much would be good?
100% ?
100% would be zero ensnare, 90% would be 10% ensnare. And there are ensnare resistance mods as well.
š thanks
Hi, I'm a running low on inventory š¦ Are there Brands/Sets that no builds use so I can just deconstruct without thinking about it?
generally you should just get rid of everything that you don't need
and once you do need something you can just farm it up
instead of being a hoarder
with the exception of certain named items and exotics
5/11 is one and if you don't have intention to play as a tank which usually is meant either for distracting a boss or playing support
then gila guard, uzina, getica, certain brands are useful on skill builds but have a rare find so golan with yellow attributes otherwise junk it
alps, rikter, douglas, walker, (dont use them myself) but they have their uses on specific builds such as healer or pistol build otherwise junk em
if u cant reach max value on something in 1 recal junk it
Is the a difference in gear modes whether they have the microchip icon or the square plate one?
huh
these icons
I have mods that have the same attribute, but different icon does that mean anything? Are they used differently?
no they give them different names and what not but they do the same task
Some of them are differen't levels, but the lower level has a higher attribute percentage, is this a trap and there is a hidden amount that percentage is based on and the higher level one is actually better?
naw if its higher go ahead and use it
Does that apply to gear as well? cause that just seems weird like why would lower level mods/gear have better stats?
How are these both 4% at level 40, but the bar is significantly different?
well...
its just something i've noticed, the game will continue to drop you lower rolled mods until you have one in your inventory thats rolled higher than what its dropping (so basically creates a new minimum based on your highest one)
start a new character for example, game will insult you by dropping 2.5 % crit chance mods where on your character with a at least one 5% or 6% crit chance mod it will drop at least 5% or minimum 4.5%
Yea, but how does that explain the difference in bar sizes despite the same percentage?
because the one you have thats a lower level has a lower maximum value
Which is what I asked earlier and you said no? That said that isn't the case here, they are both level 40
so what do you mean by lower level
They're rounded, higher bar is better
also note that certain skills can use 2 of the same kind of mods but they go in different slots
or 2 of the same bonuses from mods rather
Doesn't make any sense
Nor is it true
start a new character with no mods on it and lmk 
...
@meager elbow YOu missing one, let me check carefully
Farm activities in the area or bounties
Public execution, control point, propaganda broadcast etc
Hey if i unlock the revanous or eagle bearer will also get add it to my loot pool
Means can i get the gun from targeted loot areas
Don't think so, it's not mentioned (for either of the two) as becoming part of the loot pool once you have it on the gear attribute spreadsheet
It's listed in the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice, the gear attribute sheet which is this:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTJEX5DerCvOj3a_m36TRy1gPBAUvrduOIdmXI9j1Y0MpQk1wIXaZ9KOcPa7HzXzp_N5qGmjDj6yEfL/pubhtml#
It has an "Exotic Drop Locations and Chances" tab that is a great go-to source to see how exotics can drop, including if and when they become part of (any) general loot pool
Oh ok thank you
The eaglebearer , ravenous and regulos are raid locked. The Big Horn is legendary locked
Do you still have anymore ways to farm Chill out mask?
Hello! I have a question to the PS5 Players (i cant find the answer when using google sorry): is it normal that i only see the PS4-Tag, even if i play on PS5? I am not sure if i am playing the "correct" version... but i have 60fps ingame so i think this is the PS5 Version, right?
@fathom vessel you've got 2 more days to kill santa gremlin
Where is he located at?
May I ask what you mean by PS4 tag?
Fast travel to Jefferson trade center then immediately turn around and run towards the street, thereās 2 sewers .. give it a min or 2 but he should spawn immediately
Thereās also dz south main entrance, fast travel - turn left and run towards the parking lot
Dcd headquarters (mission) - ft and run towards street / parking lot by leaving the compound
If he doesnāt spawn keep doing this after logging in and out, thereās other locations but these ones Iāve used and know off the top of my head
The Last call safe house (one in downtown east) I think also has a spawn
@fierce knoll if you mean that it still shows you as a ps4 console on friends list / in parties thatās fine
Activate the ps5 as primary and see if it doesnāt anything
does the difficulty matter in affecting its spawn?
No
I did it on heroic regardless tho cause heās not hard to kill as he doesnāt fight back, merely taunts you
Be aware that enemy factions can spawn at these areas in his place tho
Also he only comes out at night I did it after 11 pm / 23:00 in game up until 6 am / 06:00
You can see the time when you press the button to go into settings (first menu)
i just wonder if the Dev ever update new cosmetic ? Like new Emote, skin, etc
new to game, doesn't know how the update service work
@narrow matrix don't forget he does take pot shots at you if your not paying attention to him
They have apparel events that add new cosmetics twice per season
Is there no PS5 version?
Donāt think so
Does anyone know why I still haven't gotten the compensation cach
wow, good to hear the game still update content after all those years
but .... we only have 2 raid mode for now ??
Only 2 raids, yes
Raids arenāt a main priority for the average player and even some of the exclusive loot they have (some, not all) will be dropping in the dark zone next season
But the one thing they canāt put somewhere else is they experience they give
Anyone know if Chill Out mask can drop from Targeted gila guard and not just loot goblin?
what's the best bet of target loot to get system corruption gear from the DZ (is there even targeted system corruption?)?
No tl for sys cor
Wait until a piece of armor is targeted loot such as chest, holster, or gloves
okay. thanks for the info. i guess i gotta cross my fingers harder ^^
Only goblin
My friends can't chance specialties even though he "finished the game", any thoughts?
No, ps4 game being run on ps5
Sadly no, i got a Playstation 5 and tried to upgrade the game to PS5 version and sadly it doesn't have
Theyve said raids wasnt really something they were happy with, and because of that dont have any interest in making more
Lmao
Good thing there is a xbox series s n x version
Nice
that was unexpected, i though raid is like endgame content, and endgame content is important, no ?
Dont know why there aint a piss5 version
so what is our endgame content for now? optimized all build ?
i'm using my brother account, he said the game kinda repeaty in Lau manhunt and stop playing during that time (the acc is around lv 400? )
Piss 5 lmao
endgame might be different for everyone - some love the raids, some pvp, others solo legendary content, max stats, collections, etc.
It gets boring after some runs. I stopped raiding after i got the exotics and helped my friends to get them too
Yes but they specifically didnt like raids
Yeah. With expertiese projects are still a thing
With Anderson gone, what would be some other efficient ways to level up watch?
Res convoys or summit floor loop farm. Idk if they patched floor 10 farming though
they did a long time ago
Patched months ago
They patched it. Resource convoys are the best for xp now. Challenging or heroic with as many directives as you can handle.
Ah i remember doing resource convoys way back. Good to hear thats still in, that should be something I can handle. Thank you @marsh holly @hallow raptor
huh piss5 does have next gen benefits
Is there a way to choose European servers on PC?
Without a VPN, no
sometimes there's a convoy with a circle around it, what does it mean?
Itās an elite convoy, same thing just slightly harder
ah, does it give more exp?
Yes
Also has more waves + enemies in the wave
Scaled enemies too, 90% of enemies will be elite⦠try not to get caught near other activities
Is there a min lvl requirement to join a clan?
kind of - you have to unlock the clan vendor from the theatre settlement, which requires doing a few of the connected main missions
Okay ty
Does defender drone have a certain chance to actually deflect bullets instead of reducing the damage?
where do i submit video with cheaters in DZ?
Only reduces damage, doesn't deflect.
Through the official system, info is pinned in #unofficial-troubleshooting
can the compensation cache be left in your inventory / mailbox or you have to open it ?
Its gone after tmr
So you have to open it or ?
Is there a reliable way to farm the memento backpack?
Same as 99% of gear, farm target loot
Countdown and summit are best places. And no, not summit only
Okay, here is a random question, if I have done the Anderson Manhunt on one character, and gotten the gun on that character, will it be in my general pool on every character? Or do I need to do that really quickly on any alt I'm playing?
Not sure, but better safe than sorry
increasing the difficulty for a mission increase the changes of dropped targeted loot right?
Yes
And increases rolls and exotic droprates
Directives increase target loot drop
Challenging youād get more loot due to kill enemies faster
But if looking for something youād want heroic
yea im on challenging right now, didn't do any directives tho
Yea you want directives for TL
darn already in the mission, guess ill do it again -_-
how do you report idiots cheaters in dz?
check the pinned messages in #unofficial-troubleshooting
How do I get Trigger Mechanism?
Kill the rooftop boss in capital univaded
Where is Capital uninvaded?
The stronghold, Capital
Pistol targeted loot
How do I set targeted loot
And cross your fingers
You can only āsetā targeted loot in summit and countdown
Otherwise it changes every day
is this season let you play old man hunt in BP rewards? what happend if i miss them (i'm at level 30 BP atm).
Today pistols are at DCD
I got coyotes mask. Is it any good?
How to get KARD Custom pistol? I see ppl bringing this up on their builds and I wonder how to get it outside of PVP
Named item caches that can be bought with countdown requisition from the cd vendor
Just tried to do one of the manhunts with a semi hunter fury build and still got destroyed :\
The wolves weapon skin is exclusive for pc?
First time on this platformā¦apology for dumb ?. Been playing TD2 for yearsā¦but still donāt know why loot from Countdown has a ātimerā on it. I can only use it for an hour? Whats the point of using Countdown for loot then?
are you in a group
The timer is for how long u have before u canāt share that loot with whoever was in that countdown group
If ur playing with a friend and ur sharing loot u have like 2 hrs to share loot before it expires I think
that was why i asked him if he was in a group
Yea didnāt mean to take a shot at u
I've been playing the entire 10 hour demo and have barely a couple left. I'm really considering buying it but sometimes it demotivates me a bit to feel that it's a bit desolate, not only in the base but also in matchmaking. Do you really recommend me to buy it?
It could also be that the vast majority of people have such a level that it isn't until much later that matchmaking improves or something like that, I don't know.
Demo?
The trial version
Game is a looter shooter so if you donāt like repetition and grinding then itās not for u
Otherwise for the ones who like it thereās plenty of content and your goal is whatever u set it at
Iād recommend but it all comes down to what u want out of the game cause after u do the expansion and each season then thereās nothing keeping u unless u have a goal
I don't want to say, I'm liking the game itself, I especially like games where I can disconnect half of my brain to play them. The thing is, it also has a great multiplayer element but sometimes it feels weird, I feel like I should see a lot of people here and there, playing randoms from time to time, but in everything I've played I haven't gotten there. never play with one person
(I'm using a translator by the way, in case you notice I say weird things xD)
Thatās the base game for ya
Itās actually pretty legible lol
Once u beat the expansion the game is very active
I know more or less how to write but not so fast xD
Oh yeah?. But why
Cause everyoneās doing higher level content
Raids, countdown, dz, legendary missions (hard af missions), summit
Ohh, i see
So I'll probably end up buying it, it's just that I really like spending time playing it but I also really like cooperating with others and such, and I was very excited about that xD. Since I had that doubt with active people I wasn't very sure
Itās very active not sure on Xbox tho
Decently active on XB, at least it seems so when I'm on. Lots of people in the public areas.
what exactly is the point of disruption other than preventing enemies from using their abilities/damaging robotics
That
Thanks for the reply. Countdown groups onlyā¦only solo everywhere else.
Why am I so bad in PVP??!! 4yrs and never beat a rogue agent in DarkZone, never won a Raid or Skirmish...etc. I stink at all PVP. But my loadout seems better than most when I inspect others. I use: Technician specialization, 46k PVP WD, 26% CHC, 57% CHD, 75% Headshot Dmg, 1.4M Armor, health dmg 21%, all weap dmg bonus 98%, armor regen 14k, prot from elites 24%, hazard protection 19%, bleed resist 19%, w/Crusader Shield Skill Tier 6, Drone Skill Tier 3.....Kingbreaker 139.9 DMG +God-Rolled, talents are Perfect Spotter and Kill Confirmed, everything....and....all weapons and all gear GOD-rolled and all are at 13% expertise. I worked very hard for years to grind out this loadout....I can dominate PVE and hold very well in group Legendary. But absolutely no good in PVP. Why? (This cant all be due to operator error? Right?).
Your crit chance and crit damage is bad
You tried doing everything to the point ur doing nothing
Why do you even have armor regen?
Health damage?
Pfe? What you need that for?
Haz pro and bleed res? Is this a haz pro build or a dps build?
Itās a terrible hybrid attempt at a pvp build with many useless things thrown in
Think thatās from weapon assault rifle
Iāll simplify it for you⦠pvp is about 2 things
Doing more damage to your opponent and the best way to do that is with 60% crit chance and a solid minimum of 150% chd
You want all your cores to be blue
Just read that to get a general idea of what a pvp build is supposed to be like
Lose the drone, run riot foam Chem, sticky bomb, something that will mess with them without being compromised .
Kill confirmed (memento) is a bad choice for pvp⦠if it needs to be procced or activated via kill itās baaaaad
And not all cores have to be blue, just a minimum of 4 is heavily recommended for close ranges
A few things I want to point are:
1 minimum 4 blues for close range, can be more reds if longer ranges
2 you will need multiple builds to be truly effective in pvp, say a pulse resistance build and a spotter/flatline build. Pvp is all about countering the build your opponent has, so throw on a pulse res build if your opponent is running spotter/flatline
3 a maxed out watch will greatly benefit you
4 smgs were nerfed to hell because of the lady death so ars are more favorable
5 builds may vary between conflict/dark zone
From something I said earlier today
Donāt make a pvp build till the new season drops, see what changes first but a lot of what u described is ur build not your gameplay (until u got the right build)
Also ditch kingbreaker youāre assuming your opponent doesnāt have pulse resistance, same with spotter
As a general dark zone build I run coyotes foxes picaros 1pc fenris 1pc ceska 1pc grupo, all rolled to chd/chc. Talents unbreakable and ad rush. Weapon police m4 with measured.
3 blues 3 reds
It would be 4 blues but Iām too lazy to farm for a better piece
And my backpack has a skill haste roll but yeah too lazy to farm
Waiting for someone to argue about measured š»
āItās a 1% dps increaseā okay it works doesnāt it
Idk I just wanna see a fight š
Your build actually has one advantage Iād say (you can run into dz drops and tank all the damage whilst stealing or looting the drop)
I could be wrong but I personally find fighting the npcs to be stabbing yourself in the foot since other people are coming
Measured has worked for me. Donāt care about it being a 1% dps increase statistically it outperforms the enemy and in pvp that is what it is all about. With measured you get that dps in faster and you gotta give it a bonus for feeling like the house giving it some points for nostalgia
Every time I mention that aspect of the build azur always comes in and is like āuhm ackschually measured is a 1% dps increase while optimist is like a 7% increase or something so your build badā and I always repeat the same thing to him āwell in pvp itās all about getting that dps in quickly and thatās what measured allows me to doā
If it works for you it works 
Did u do the 5 hidden ones in dc?
i suppose not lol
i had found a couple random mission givers but i didn't look for any more
Missing wire scavengers
Navy hill transmission
Missing scavengers or something like that
NYC after dark (dk the name)
Yea thereās more, thereās 5 of them
thanks for the heads up i can prob find a youtube guide to find them
didn't know there were that many
sweet, thanks
Thanks
Thanks
Wtf is that shit build, it not even work in pve, use common sense
You get more from other talents though. Both sides of clip arenāt the best unless youāre running striker or something with stacks. Unless you only shoot like 1/4 of your mag at a time
Iirc measured is closer to 4% not 1% but I forgot
Is there a list of what Disrupt status can prevent?
Why would u listen to non pvp
How do i fix lagging issues in Division 2?
upgrade your pc with ram or something? maybe? your connection might be going to a crappy server region? i dunno it could be lots of reasons that its being laggy
or downgrade your graphics settings. thats worth a try
i wouldn't say lag but like the game would like freeze, like i can move around but i can't shoot, then after a few seconds i just die.
ohhh ok ive had that happen once or twice. no idea why
Not really, in case you not using vigilance, then 30 twd is equal 30 amplifier, because you don't have another twd
I can't tell you measure with X% wd is good, because it depend on builds, but it not that bad in pvp as you think
pvp not just calculate dps, also mag damage and damage of each shot
rpm=/=dps...... on a standard HE red pvp build especially, you lose dps one the first part of measured, just that the rpm goes up doesnt mean that the dps goes up when the other part of that dps calc is gettting hit harder than what you gain in rpm
i think perfect measured on the apartment is pretty good. the first half is great for stacking strikers pretty quick and the second half hits slow but with huge damage numbers
first half of mag is like around 500k and the second half is around 900k or something. (dont put too much weight on those numbers because im just going from memory. its been a long time since i looked at the numbers
actually i remember that the second half is over a million (with strikers anyway)
Not good, with striker worse more, why you stack striker with mpx 25 bullet, but not with aa12? Common sense dude
Also i pretty sure we talking about measure in PVP, right now
oh yeah true
i dont need to use acs to stack because i dont use the strikers chest piece. i use obliterate
its so not necessary
in pve anyway
whatever man ok its useless, i primarily just use my primary weapon (famas) the whole time from the very start of an engagement anyway. and i destroy enemies fast
If allegro was a talent I feel like pvpers would want it
Was that a talent sometime ago?
Seeing as thereās a perfect version
Before wony there 3 talent on each gun
Allegro is second talent, same with mag size etc.
Before wony, allegro is not popular in pvp, because there not many chance you need that rpm
wow you take this stuff very seriously
If i am correct, the meta from tu1-tu7 are lmg > clutch > double barrel> 3 11 7 > double barrel> m1a
I hope i miss nothing
What about the one on railsplitter?
Perfectly accurate
Rail splitter is strong in that time, it was perfect measure
After EB comes out, rail splitter go down
hey dont talk about perfect measured being good. ikia will have a meltdown
Insert dad joke
What am I reading here?
Clutch? Is that the backpack talent?
You say allegro was a talent sometime ago
I thought you saying before wony
Oh yeaā¦
But like Iām not sure what it is that āflow chartā thing represents
Was clutch another talent?
What is 3 11 7?
Have you ever play patch before tu8? If not, that is pretty long story
nah I think i came in TU 14 or something could be wrong tho
spring 2021 is when I started playing - moreso into fall 2021
Faye Lau season that lasted like a year?
First you have to know , long time ago guns have 3 talent, first one is main talent, just like those talent we have nowadays
second talent is make those guns stronger in some way, for example rpm( allegro) , mag size, accurate etc..
Why i say allegro wasn't popular before tu8
Because most build need mag size
like div 1? theres 3 talents on exotics and guns I think - but each condition (power, armor, energy I think it was) had to reach a certain threshold to unlock the talents?
Not really, div1 all 3 talent you can choose what talent you use, unless exotic you only can choose 2
But div2 it something like ABC, you have to follow ABC rules, you can't roll it to AAA or ABA or anything else
also, not all but some talent does require attributes, for example some required X red/blue/yellow attributes above, some is less than X attributes
I see
You can search division2 clutch build tu7, or division2 3-11-7 (3/11/7), and you know what build am i talking
Rail splitter ia extremely strong, long time ago......
oh okay thanks for the explanation, thought you were talking about the backpack talent to regen armor
I'll be sure to check it out, I like the c-tar and the railsplitter but its damage drop off is quite high, I might be wrong as I am talking more form experience and feeling. but anything over say 25 meters gets treated as if its an SMG...
its like the chameleon in a sense
So you join this game too late 
ain't my fault š
@narrow matrix If youāre looking for a strong AR Iād suggest one of these two.
Famas - High rate of fire in exchange for damage drop off. Similar to CTAR.
Carbine 7 - Mid range rate of fire with high accuracy and much better range.
Both have excellent accuracy and recoil management
thanks, so the famas does have a significant damage drop off...
thought I was just seeing things wrong
Itās very similar to the CTAR. Does a bit more damage
it shreds I won't lie but that might owe into why it eats bullets lol
I can't stand it
If you want more range try the Carbine 7
Nothing wrong with it. Damage is a bit low for an AR in my opinion
its optimal range is 28 i think so thats probs why u say that
thats some sketchy shit
I used to use the Mechanical Animal when farming in PvE. It does well enough but after you switch to something with more damage (Famas, FAL, Carbine 7) youāll put it in the stash
they gave eb 35 but p146 variants 26...
eh i like the 556 I like burst dps but switch between all the guns at some point
for harder / more dedicated content tho i use a famas
those lower rpm guns benefit from strained
Itās all preference. I know people who prefer the FAL. Iām not a huge fan but it definitely hits like a tank
FAL is very nice indeed
Optimist is my go to on everything not status built
Where would Scorchers be?
what level are u
Lv30
outcasts
do outcast bounties
How do I specify them? I thought they were random?
nowhere else would really have them at that level but most of the outcast bosses in bounties are scorchers
the mast control point has one easily accessible and its near a safehouse
or u can farm the wildfire in roosevelt island
its something like 20 elite scorchers right
just go around doing public executions for outcasts, do you have the expansion?
It says kill 10 of them
elite right
Yes, but I havnt got to it yet. Still stuck with the stupid black tusk missions. Almost done though
I feel like I made a huge mistake in first time when I get a first exotic....
then skip the field research, a lot of it you will be repeating in the base game unnecessarily keeping u there longer and some of it will take u more time to do in base game
for example elite scorchers don't really spawn in base game unless the enemy is named
So it will be easier later after I finish the black tusk missions? And itās not more efficient to do them at the same time?
speaking from experience (I did all of them in World tier 4 & 5) without use of demolisher firefly and all that lol
it will be easier after u beat the dlc yes
instead of farming 10 outcast bounties you'll find 10 in 1 heroic mission with group scaling of course
Ok. Dumb but thanks for the info šš»
just like ccp š
Are the rogue agents considered as named enemies?
rogue agents got no name
If ur asking health yes
Yes
In terms of health and droprates
i hear resource convoy is good source for XP, but i don't see many of them ? Should i reset world if i took care all of them ?
If most of your CPs are green then yes, reset them. If they're all red then it won't make much difference, you'll just have to wait for convoy spawns. It's rng at that point.
They donāt tend to spawn at night either
The only ones Iāve seen run at night are outcasts
oh thanks
Wont loging out and back in respawn convoys as well
Was farming dz alot yesterday not one ORBIT,TDI or dark winter. Are those weapons rly that rare of a drop?
hi guys, can Hunters hack my sniper turret in countdown?
Yes
They can hack anything to kill you back
Any turret, any drone
Dang
So yea...don't bring a any turret or drone when you fight with hunter...
It killed my own teammate before
Yeah I thought Sniper turret was immune š
Technically it does because the second half of the magazine is more dps than the first half
are FI healer rly useless in legendary? i just made one since i rly love to play support roles, but all legendary i joined by matchmake was such a failure
I use them there
A healer is pretty useful in legendary when it's a coordinated group. Personally, I found with PUGs that whenever a healer is present they'll often start thinking they're invincible and start becoming reckless, which is usually when everything starts going sideways
thats what happend last 3 legendary š full reds started rushing things š and that was the end of run š
sez hu?
sacrilege
š i heard someone saying it, but i guess it was just another Central chat BS š
rpm has a function in the dps calc offcourse, but you initial claim was that measured was more dps because of the rpm increase, it isnt that that doesnt the lifting in that talent, its the twd bonus of the second part, still meaning that even technically there, the rpm isnt directly the cause of the dps increase, so no, not even technically true either
more useful than tanks
I didnāt mention rpm at all. What I meant without saying it was higher rpm makes you get to the second half of the mag faster which deals more dps
And the loss of 30% wd leaves me with effectively one red core since I run three. Pvp builds generally have 4-6 blues so Iām not losing out on much dps if others already run only 1 red
Just by wd not any other factors
That's what I'm saying. š If you like to play a support build with a PUG, though, I'd recommend a foam status build. It's pretty effective even (or especially) with inexperienced groups.
im in game like a month or so š im unexpirienced myself š
that second part where it is still doing less than most other talents still is also then not worth it, by the point you reach the halfway point, optimist is likely only 5 bullets behind matching it at that dmg output at that point, and then optimist will overtake it after and just do a ton more
That's no reason to not put that build together and start practicing with it š
Well it works and thatās all that matters, no?
I am effectively killing people
Before they can kill me
true true š ill look up for that, never tried any status build
no, its just you saying it work, that is the point, you have provided nothing that is a credible claim, except basically trust me bro, and that will get push back especially since the rest of us can provide numbers to back up our claims, that is why me azur and raucey give you pushback, its that its a bad claim made poorly
and i have killed people with a full purple build in pvp a ton of times, doesnt make purple gear the choice to go with, and definitly not the thing to recommend to others to run
So what do I need now some video evidence?
Just because it may not be optimal for pvp does not mean it works not just from my own experience but from others Iāve seen running it
There will always be people with sub optimal builds that any build can kill but Iāve faced people with god rolls on every piece and I have still defeated them
You can have way worse items and kill people with better builds than you
the evidence isnt going to come from a vid, you know stuff like this can be easily calculated right,
and its not about it not just being optimal or not, any weapon talent could literally at points get kills as its a minor factor in the final build picture,
but you keep recommending it to others, and its one of the lesser choices when compared to optimist or strained as even talents that dont need much to easily beat it.
I canāt remember the last time Iāve seen someone using strained in pvp
I did frame by frame counting of how long it took to kill a player with one talent over another. Unless youāre playing with stacks, measured is always slower to kill someone
Itās always optimist
Or flatline which is even better than optimist until someone throws on a pulse res build
FI is not really useless =w=
Flatline and sadist are always best, but have counters
good deflect, i said one talent just because it will still beat measured that isnt optimal on a mostly blue build, and you focus on that, great argumentation, im done with this discussion, the point was that even strained that is less than optimist on a full bluecore build, is still better than measured
Increase damage to me and allies if they not get hit: 35%
+
Perfectly Opportunistic: Enemy damage taken: 15%
+
Scorpion: Enemy damage taken: 20%
Yea, I can go like this all night
I didn't take FI backpack cuz it useless
minus 5 points for not having sledgehammer
I dun have enough da grenade okie =w=
i have no idea what you just said
I don't have enough grenade ;-;
thats easy to fix
after every encounter, once you're out of combat, switch to another loadout with a different specialization.
then switch back to your healer build
this will restock your specialization nades back to full
Noted
Well I donāt want you recommending bad talents either, and I never recommend that talent, I specifically say thatās what I run
I never go like āoh X is what you should runā but I go like āX is what I runā
i was just going to let you have the last word there and move on, but damn, that one is so tucker carlson lvls of bad that i cant just leave it up uncontested,
when someone ask for a pvp build and you put your version of what you are running there right next to it, then yeah, that is a recommendation, you dont have to intend to recommend something for it to be that, and then going the equivalent of "im not saying anything, im just asking questions" is pure gold, and a admittance that you wont back up you claim at all still.
I think at this point issue is why are we even talking about any of it at all, since technically you could run literally any gear piece, talent, stat, skills, weapon combination you can imagine possible in the game, and still "effectively kill people" if you for example are better in other mechanics of the game (or even by sheer luck)
If something is "good" (in a vacuum really doesn't mean how you call it), doesn't mean there isn't something even better, I feel like it's common to see lot of people using a build in any game and since they feel like it's "good" they hide away from the objective truth of other choices being better (in some, or sometimes, in every way)
So if we'd approach all talents, builds, weapons, attributes with that mindset, we'd have absolutely 0 valuable discussions since everyone could call everything "good" because it worked "well enough" in their case
And no one would ever learn what or why something else could be better because of X and Y with arguments and math backing it up
If "well it works and that's all that matters" is the case, then I think it's better if one just goes and continues to play the game, but if you engage in discussions where we aim to find out what's better, it really doesn't contribute anything to that
Imagine if literally every single time anyone would ask anything about a build whatsoever, someone would come in and say "yeah it's great keep using it don't change it, and don't talk about it or X or Y gets a meltdown" and not give a chance for anyone to help them out to improve it any way, because that build "worked well enough for you"
I'm absolutely happy for you that it's working out well for you and that it's giving you fun and entertainment, but also entertain the idea that some people like to figure out what stuff could be better, backing it up with math and covering edge cases, and to be welcome to such an idea because either you learn something and get even better, or discuss in good faith giving their arguments a good go and potentially find an issue with it and teach them something
People are just trying to help, that's all
to someone coming in to discuss about what's good, to someone new and inexperienced trying to learn to build something better, there's essentially no difference between the two to them when they read it, and you saying that intending the latter still can be easily interpreted as the first by those people who're trying to find out what's good and improve, since why else would you state what you use if not to suggest them "hey, this could be the answer to your question of what's better"
I hope you don't take this a bad way and hope you understand where others are coming from and consider what other people might be after
So can we go back to discussing tank builds instead of measured š
Is the warlords of new york dlc worth it? Just got to level 30 and wondering if I should get it
if you like the game and want to play more then yes, definitely - dlc adds loads more content and long-term progression (and if you want to play with others, most of them have it)
Yes, it is worth it
To be able to do the manhunts yes
You donāt get end game content if you donāt have it
Without warlords you can't do the manhunts and iirc tmrw the new season drops so
You can do raids at level 30 but your gonna need to get carried pretty hard
Warlords is usually on sale alot
It's 12$ cad here rn might be cheaper where you are
closer backpack right?
Closer is chest
That's The setup Backpack
what's reconfigure? should i do that to get good stat?
You get exotic in final
There are 3 parts anyway, that's part 1
but what if i alr have exotics?
Oh damn I didn't realize this was the case, guess I'll have to get it then. Just out of curiosity is there any endgame activity with just the base game?
uh... like this? i just asked if i have for example... chamaleon. when i reconfigured it, does it change the stat?
Reconfiguring is like getting a new drop
Random new stats just like you got in the first place
You can reconfigure you're exotics to try and get better stats but personally I don't think it's worth it. Every time you reconfigure you burn an exotic component. I think you'd be better off just optimizing them
thanks for enlighten me.. i genuinely confused manage build unlike div1 xd
Ofc optimize, but reconfigure to the stats you can max out
Reconfigure changes the rolls. For example the Chameleon always has crit chances as an attribute. All it does is reroll all the stats. Sometimes you get better rolls sometimes you get worse
Yes
Any idea about when the stream is happening?
<t:1677510900:t> / <t:1677510900:R>
can this be found in discovery mode aswell or only normal // can i use an alt for the boss loot to get them
Only normal
Sad š¦ thanks bro, if i was to run it on another character and say only clear the first boss with friends think that would work?
Probably
Since you can share materials between characters
i'll give it ago thanks for the help!
I found dagovās key in the mission, but my game crashed and now the mission is over. Did i just miss out on some sick loot?
Probably not
No
When a build guide mentions cores they mean the gear icons right?
Do certain brands always have a number of core spots? I don't have any in front of me so I don't remember. Is it possible to get more core slots for gear and how do you increase your chance of that happening?
They mean main attribute core of gear (ie weapon damage, armor or skill tier)
Core attributes are fixed in all gear, but can be recalibrates like normal.
The pinned spreadsheet lists all the cores by gear.
Example: strikers gear set main core is weapon damage, (aka red core)
gila brand is armor (aka blue)
Hann U core is skill tier (aka yellow)
if its the spreadsheet I'm looking at I don't see that area I just see attribute ranges
What about the secondary cores?
You only get to recalibrate one thing on a piece of gear which means everything else needs to be good with one thing that needs to be changed which is kind of lame
go to the brands tap or the gear set tab it shows there
secondary cores are random with the 1st one being weighted to drop more often as matching color to main core.
That shows the core attribute, but isn't that guide talking about the other ones?
this picture note is ONLY talking about the main cores,
That same guide then goes on to say this
So different gear then because if the major attribute is tied to gear wouldn't the gear be differen't then the original recommendations, ones with armor as the main core?
the secondary stats are proabably mentioned above that note.
AH there you go
No you can still recalibrate the main core. (1 thing per item) so just means you have to farm the gear for stats you want.
That confusing so its says you want the most red core/attributes, but then to change some to armor? That would then require for the other parts of that gear to be perfect so you can use your one recalibration on change it to armor no?
Also the CH/CHD statement below also doesn't make much sense. What comparion are they trying to make there?
The math part is just if you want to further min max, use the guides on the top section (the 50 / 100% part)
Yes it requires the other sub stats to be near perfect so you can recalibrate the main core to what you want.
Ie farming takes time
Can use optimization to bump up the near perfect stats to be perfect after (again takes farming time)
aint no one got time for that :\ is there like a good enough chart somewhere where you just need stats like these to make a good enough build?
Nope
we all agreed that nobody got time for that and noone ever made any calculations ever, also there likely isnt any build pictures at the bottom at the very guide you plucked that segment from that you could copy from š
Oh yea? Go ahead and tell me what cores they are using and at what percent's
are you asking about the chc/chd or the actual %-tage on the red core?
cores you can see the colors, % are assumed max (as the picture is to show the GOAL of the build, when under said goal, use the best you have until you get there).
as you can assume as much as possible, if all you are after is good enough as you said, once you want to min max, there is either copying from someone that did calcs, or do them yourself
also maybe these will be more usefull to you if you are after specifically what stats aswell, just not as new player friendly as the guides:
https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1LPnA18PDgGg_dEbNI1kZVTVIMGXNHQS_
I mean are those cores all chd/chc? I mean theres one armor, I guess thats the one they mentioned as ahving an armor core for defense, but doesn't seem like much of a balance when they only have one
Not sure what this shows?
blue cores on a build are always going to be about personal preference and playstyle, and they are mostly there for gettin a extra buffer with a shield, go all red for more dakka and dont use a shield and play with cover and positioning, or use a few blue cores and a shield to get into enemies faces and just kill them quickly
Well that explains some of my recent deaths..
also FYI Cores are the main attribute ONLY. for the other stats people just say what stat they are Ie crit chance/ crit damage/ skill damage etc...
What?
also is this pve or pvp talk, as in pvp its basically as many blue cores as you can and unbreakable and adren rush as the current trading meta
this would be pve
there are only 3 core attributes in the game:
Red = Weapon damage
Blue = Armor
yellow = skill tier.
the other stats on items are called secondary attributes (ie skill damage, skill haste, crit chance, armor regen etc......) and shown BELOW the Core attribute section when looking at gear.
when people say "its a blue core" they mean the main stat at the top of the gear stats section"
if i say "its a blue core" i mean the item is Armor as its main core attribute.
How are you able to get maxed stats on all attributes? Like I assume you found one with the right talent and two maxed stats?
optimize
Oh, so you just need to get the attributes you want, max on by recalibration and the rest by optimization?
yup
ok thats not as bad as I thought
closer to max roll, the cheaper it will be to optimize though.
so still want highish rolls
Ur missing 2 settlement projects which rewards the bounties - both of which are in DC
Or safe house projects
But still in dc
do I have to unlock specialization per character?
yes
is anyone able to explain the difference between damage to target out of cover and damage to armor only thing i know is that one is Multiplicative and one isnt
everything is Multiplicative and additive to them selfs , except amps are never additive.
damage to target out of cover only applies to targets not glued to a cover.
damage to armor only applies to damage to armor and not to health. (ie the white health bar)
so what makes damage to targets out of cover better?
is it just the fact that it applies to health as well as armor where as damage to armor dosent
the attribute for target out of cover goes up to 10. For armor it only goes up to 6. Also once a targets armor is gone the effect stops. But with out of cover as long as they aren't in cover it still works
its almost always active (works vs heavies and robots too) targets are out of cover like 90%+ and can be easily knocked out of cover
also on weapons it rolls higher 10% instead of 6%.
DTA doesnt work against red enemies and purples only have 50% armor
and ars haveinnate dmg to health
thanks for the info main reason i was asking is i have honey badger with damage to armor where i can roll the talent but havent been able to get one with damage to targets out of cover so was just curious if i would be worth it
i can post the Short weapon damage formula, if that may help you ?@dawn tide
damage to armor on weapons is still good enough, its just that DTOOC is much better
If you have DTA and a crap talent id stick with DTA and reroll the talent, until you get one with dttooc where you can reroll the talent and keep dttooc
when you say reroll a talent what does that mean?
Means use the recalibrate station to change the talent
Ok thats what I thought
do higher difficulties
heroic/leg drop better rolled gear
You need good gear to do higher difficulties don't you? Kind of a catch 22
for leg yes but not for heroic.
heroic just needs a good build (rolls dont need to be near maxed)
also you can do countdown with a trash build, just let the others carry you on challenging difficulty lol
is using Artificier hive with assault/sniper turret any different from actually deploying the hive?
the turret gets buffed with the hive on my back similar to a shield
What's the fastest way to change between grenades frag and specialized?
neat
use loadout slots
Hmm i mean keyboards button
No
Yeah they sound very similar at first but are actually different. I'm not recommending you to use any of the pieces I run it is to give you an idea of what a pvp build should generally look like. It can be related to the spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice where the builds there are not meant to be copied but rather built upon. Use what I say as a way to make your own build
well depends on the build. like some of those builds are the min max already (ie cant be built upon)
Well yeah especially for the pvp builds there will always be multiple optimal builds meant to cover the same topic, that topic being pvp
I had 4 pieces of hunter fury and some decent other gear and I still got destroyed on a manhunt bounty, not sure how I could do heroic when those are just challenging. Then again I was running challenging with two directives on some missions so I feel like their "challenging" is a bit more, but even still its they aren't walk in the park.
Well those manhunt bounties are really hard even for experienced players with really good builds
the jump from challenging to heroic is pretty big, and then another jump from heroic to legendary.
also what he said ^^
Kinda
heroic and up also requires smart play (unlike challenging and lower)
dont we technically have 2 different versions of heroic difficulty due to raids and countdown?
where i can find old Manhunt mission ?
Your picture has the answer
Nope
U got 4 man heroic n u got 8 man in cd
the top line in the description says it pretty straightforward
Lol yeah legendary is harder than heroic but I consider it the easiest difficulty. I go in with a different mindset than normal-heroic so it becomes easier for me
well raids dont have heroic mode, Countdown does and its higher then normal heroic though.
Sry but i cant catch ur answer, it say it permanently unlock, but where i can start the manhunt? New to game
Jefferson
Trade
Center
click on the mission and it should give you the option to toggle the mission to its manhunt version
just switch mission mode to Manhunt, shoot stuff dont die collect loot
So i dont need to do 4 intel thingy, and just go straight to last mission of previous manhunt?
no
For previous manhunts no
is it worth running spotter flatline with honey badger considering you lose a mod slot
C7 is basically the same but you dont lose a mod slot
i saw someone saying honey badger had the highest dps the other day i guess they where wrong?
the description of the man hunt says "Jefferson Trade Center" so you will find his mission at that location.
Honey badger is good but below the 3 I mentioned
And there are multiple ways to describe dps
Got it, thanks for the explain
Honey badger is solid but isnt top 3 because its missing that 4th mod slot
Honey badger is a mid tier AR
Like burst dps (which the famas is best in class for) or damage per mag
Or sustained dpm
King breaker beats Famas FYI š in burst dps
wait what
"wait what" to what??
ah, yes it beats it in burst dps with talent of course
I count base stats
+20% amped with flatline
I donāt include talents or any modifiers
kingbreaker is insanely high dps lol
Flatline is a nutty talent
base stats yes it doesnt beat famas BUT Kingbreaker beats a flat line famas. in burst dps (not that you run flatline on famas though)
the only issue with kingbreaker is that it has slow RPM, making it less synergistic with stacking damage
azur is correct here
Also less stable and accurate
ya the recoil is hard to control
What are the range values on tkb vs famas?
kingbreaker is worse
normal TKB is just a mid tier AR
what talent would you run on famas for pve strained and optimist im guessing
strained or fasthands
Optimist or fast hands
Strained loses value at higher RPMS, optimist doesnt
But it is still better than optimist until 1200 rpm which only the vector reaches
For Famas and all AR top talents: Flatline, Strained, Sadist, In Sync, Fast Hands, Ranger, Notable mentions: Preservation (but famas not worth running flatline as cant run tech laser)
like always depends on build.
Strained is still a ~8-9% dps boost on famas (still top tier). it doesnt loss value until 1200 rpm but only vector has that.
A few things I want to point out are that sadist requires a source of bleed and in sync requires the use of non-shield skills
currently for my striker i switch between badger C7 m4 and kingbreaker was thinking of testing famas since you get the handling
of course, hence the "depends on build"
like insync requires turret or drone to be good, but still good (also combos nicely with GC for even more skill dps on Red builds)
am i the only one who thinks custom l86 lsw is one of the best lmgs?
Itās an lmg that tries to be an assault rifle while having everything an lmg has
Itās like the chameleon where it classified as an assault rifle but is really an smg
at least they are better than a shotty with ranger....js
or m700 with Close and Personal...
I kinda wish that LMGs were made a bit more attractive
during the story they were fun to use due to suppression aspect and the large clip size
but the downsides in higher difficulties like lack of shield and poor handling are really big downsides
Same but I use shields so š
Decoy is good to draw aggro off u, banshee pulse / blinder firefly to gain some firepower time
Itās usable i main LMGs a lot cause ARs donāt hit them weakpoints like LMGs
is the general anderson xp farm still viable
Nope
They patched it and Im happy about that
anyone have any idea of what timezones S11 goes live?
Already live I belive
And already post the news thing as well
the servers go down at these times, if the maintenance goes without issues its 3 hours after that they come up, once up its the new season :
#division-tweets message
More crash >:D
Morw stutter!!!
MORE DISCONNECTTTTT
EVEN MORE CRASSSSHHHHHH
Thank you very much š
iām new ish to the game how do i get the coyote mask
so thereās no good way to farm it other then hyena
Each faction wil drop their exotic gears
Best your luck, chance will increase when targeted loot is a mask one
you can also just farm it with targeted loot, coyote in JTC is a specific source (also not just any named/boss hyena, but her specifically), but the droprate will work out the be about the same if you do countdown with targeted loot set to masks, and youll get more other loot out of it aswell
also you can always check this sheet for what exo drops where, and if they have prerequisites as some do:

under Exotic Drop Locations and Chances tab
is there a cap on running countdown ?
yes. if you run it too many times your head explodes and you die from dysentery
Drops from bounties pretty regularly, the higher the difficulty the better the drop rate. Even better if the area is AR targeted loot.
Bounty only
Thatās wrong you can get chameleon from AR targeted loot or as a random drop exotic. It has a higher chance in bounties as a open world drop exotic.
So yes you can get it from countdown @vagrant pollen
is there a way to change the color of your Apperal?
I've seen the white hats with Headsets & Symbol from the clan shop and wondered if I could change its dye
Thats operator hat, drop from legendary difficult
The headset one 1 side, right?
Thought only drop in bounty D:
Whats a recommended AR that has DMG & Range
Ik the FAMAS or anything higher than 800 ROF are popular but Iām thinking of something with mellow recoil incase I have to shoot something at least 45 Meters away or longer
I mean its 7.62 which are most AKs
also I was using it earlier.
Can hardly hit stuff but then again that's just me being less than 500 SHD lvls or a major skill issue
I mean, far range + good damage...but recoil is your control
@copper zodiac
How I can find this hat? Since me and awesomeV87 looking for it too
I have the hat (Clan Vendor)
I'm asking if I can change the color
I mean free 20% total WPN dmg is something I'm not gonna complain about
Just curious if I can run any alternatives
@inner tendon
it's demon mask but when i go to building and shoot targets nothing happens
oh Demon, that is probably the easiest one to get to spawn.
Are you shooting all 4 targets from top to bottom? I can't recall if order matters, but it's worth a try.
Try waiting for daily/weekly reset (the timer is in the Projects menu) and attempting again.
To be clear, you've done the "Agent Edwards Support" in your own instance, right?
is that where you get ambushed by a hunter at the end?
i think i did that but didn't kill the hunter cuz they disappeared
No worries, as long as you have done that and haven't killed the Hunter (Demon) before, you'll be fine.
If problems persist, try joining someone else's world and you can obtain it via that.
yeah i haven't killed demon before. if it doesn't work i'm gonna see if someone can make a new character and invite me
that should work right?
No need for a new character, just someone who hasn't completed that Hunter before.
I'm sure you can find a newer player on the #lfg-pc channel.
This is really stretching my memory, haven't done that fight since 2019.

Any recommendations what āpvp/questā only exotic I should get since I cant get dodge city?
Er.. got an error mid mission felt sad even though Iām two level away from level 30
Now I rest lmao
Everyone can get DCH?
You need to start the quest from the crafting lady
Its the last quest Iām stuck at.
Ppl say just get to the cafe spot before 12 O clock PM ingame time, I keep missing the timing or not sure when to come over
Is there any go to spot to get this done quick? Any veteran got tip?
Does anybody knows at what time the weekly resets(invasion) happens?
I know today is big update day but i want to know will i be able to see the invasion missions for this week before going into maintenance.
There's one in the CP on the upper left corner of the white house area
Also encounters in the cooling tower of Countdown could work
navy plaza or the nest is a decent option
Actually the fallen cranes also near a safehouse lol
Does upgrading the specialization increase only specialization weapon, or primary gun damaged or both
if you are talking about expertise, for expertise grades on the spec weapon, its the spec weapon only (used to be bugged if you are following old info, where it did increase main weapon dmg, no longer does)
Only special weapon.
Thereās already a separate tree that u can spend 15 points to increase a weapon type DMG by 15% total.
Unless ur talking expertise then the previous dude might have answer above?
what are the normalized values based on
is descent out yet? or next season?
Didnāt the text thingy say it was supposed to be this season for solo player and then co-op later, but they made the choice to delay it and release both at the same time?
Also, how do I get gear score 400? so I can fraking continue the storyline since Iām not allowed to turn off the stupid world tier system. š
Equip gear with a higher gear score
Have been, still stuck at 387
Everything keeps dropping at low score
Well thatās just bad rng. Donāt worry, getting bette gear becomes even harder at wony
I just want to finish the storyline lol š god, such poor design not being able to turn off the stupid forced world tier crud š
I don't think you still need to meet specific gear score requirements to go up world tiers, just completing the strongholds will do it (although it will get harder if you are undergeared). If you keep upgrading your bench you can also craft better gear.
Next season. The earliest we gonna see it is gonna be the PTS for Y5S1
hey can i play expedition in coop mode. and is it only playable once or i can play it more than once until the time limit
Yes, and you can replay as much as you like this week.
and i can get diamondback every time i finish expedition?
I think only first time, but never tried beyond that. If you want to farm exotics there are much faster ways.
Run it once and see what you think
So, I got Puck's Nemesis and now I can't reconfigure it and Inaya doesn't have the blueprint? What gives?
Someone else just shared one that didn't have any attributes at all, they must have messed something up
damn you are very unlucky
Yeah directives change every season
How so?
yeah they also changed cool skill directive
Yes
then wait for day or hour that happens sometimes
Then raise a ticket with Ubisoft support
if anything, he looks like a fortnite character to me lol
Cool
Or just farm a better one and junk the one with bad rolls
and look like a youtuber or a streamer or some shhh
Nope. Says Iām not allowed to continue unless I have gear score 400.
Ikr!!
He's more like fortnite character for me
or create new character and try farming with someone and get bp in that account you can always share blueprints
But itās fine, I soloed a hard mission and got a few guns past 400, since the MM didnāt pop for 20 minutes
Such a dumb system š
Idk how I feel about the new directives
Anything broken atm or we gucci?
Fragile armor is such a pain because of the bug
atleast they know how to break appearance too
So what is broken here?
look at the backpack, solid black yet different colors
Oh its still white after dark die
the white and black doesnt look too bad but on different builds i have its just black rather than white and black, which seems weird tbh
where my skill core go and my Armor š¦
Have you actually lost a skill core - ie, suddenly tier 5 or whatever?
I need to log in and update as I have a CG equipped
yep
Wthš
Bruh lmao
How do they always do this shit
Broke Closer last time
