[wind hornet]

is the countdown targeted loot bugged?

[thorn hedge]

i just ran countdown can confirm its in fact not bugged

[wind hornet]

i selected the item and backed out i guess it seletcted it

seems like its not staying the set i select when i back out of screen

[marsh atlas]

is it possible to jump straight to the expansion mission without the character boosting thing?

[cedar yacht]

You can if you create a character. Character boosting only makes your new/old character Lv30/WT5 and not be sent to NYC.

[fallow inlet]

@wind hornet it auto selects pistols

[slate mortar]

Guys can someone explain the aces and 8s 4piece effect?

Flip a card when landing shots with a Marksman Rifle. After 5 cards are flipped, the damage of your next shot is amplified by 30%. More shots are enhanced the better the hand revealed.

Means after 5 shots only i have 30% increased dmg?

[fallow inlet]

It's like a card game the better the hand the better the effects

[slate mortar]

And what does the last line mean? More shots enhanced better the hand?

[fallow inlet]

Just like poker

[slate mortar]

So its random?

[fallow inlet]

Yes 2pair ok 4of a kind bring the evil

[slate mortar]

Better the hand better the effects, what do you mean better effects? Any other effect than 30% increased dmg?

Means it scales with the card?

[fallow inlet]

Yes you used to 1shot boomer with aces and eoghts

[slate mortar]

Sorry for asking so much, i dont play poker so im lost

[fallow inlet]

Lol no prob

[slate mortar]

Ait thanks ☺️

[fallow inlet]

2pair,3 of a kind,full house,flush, straight,4of a kind, royal flush

[green monolith]

What the hell is going on with Countdown? I am trying to play it, but every time I get 2 loading screens and the game doesn`t start the right way

[wind swallow]

[fallow inlet]

@green monolith leader might not be starting it ,and waiting for something

[dire arch]

Hi guys,

Quick question.. how can I obtain old skins that were available on previous seasons if they haven’t been added to the general skin pool yet? I’m talking about the ‘Stalker’ Famas skin in particular..

And I’ve seen clan mates getting a random skin drop in the DZ for the FAL ar, what’s the story there?

Thanks in advance y’all and have a good one

[tulip fiber]

Some are available for purchase with textiles. Premium season pass gives out extra skins

[dire arch]

@tulip fiber Thanks for the reply, I know that already but my question is how you obtain a skin that’s not available as an option for purchase w textiles. The ‘Stalker’ skin was available with season 3 I believe, is it still possible to acquire like they way past season apparel is

[distant walrus]

Ok I'm level 185, I can't stand everyone is over 1k level. What do I gotta do to even get up to speed?

[tulip fiber]

That skin was in Season 3, but it was in the premium pass. Which gives out extra weapon skins. So you can purchase the premium pass if you want. Some are available in the regular apparel cache that you get keys for by leveling up. Some may or may not be available anymore, or only by premium credits. Look at the weapon skins section in the store.

[west hearth]

Convoys, cps, or dz landmarks oooorrrr if u cant beat them join them and do faye lau up to you

And ofc do them with directives and heroic

[distant walrus]

Fuck it

[west hearth]

[distant walrus]

Hey what's the mission called again for Faye Lau

[delicate cliff]

camp white oak

[thorn hedge]

i wouldnt do faye lau cuz it can get you banned

[fathom spruce]

now got to upgrade that CPU to not hold it back so much! missing some 50% more performance here

[cedar schooner]

Or yanno cuz it’s an exploit that’s negatively affecting other parts of the game and people’s experience.

[thorn hedge]

@distant walrus

[slate spire]

hi everyone, i have one problem. I would to do the mission " Labotory of the DARPA" but i can't launch it and i don't see it -_-. i need it to unlock the fire specialisation

[hazy belfry]

is there a difference between ruthless and merciless

[cedar schooner]

IIRC one is a from the deluxe edition and the other is base game, but they share the same exotic talent.

[hazy belfry]

is it different stat wise

[foggy needle]

nope just look

[fallow inlet]

Hey Azurmen32

@slate spire goto #lfg-pc and ask someone to get it started for you

or if youve never done it youll have to do it on story 1st

[olive python]

I’m trying to get to shd cache but I don’t see a way in except jump

Northwest of the Archive safe house

[clever ocean]

go left

[olive python]

And northwest of the ivy tunnel

[clever ocean]

follow the balcony

[olive python]

??

Got it thanks

[distant walrus]

I thought they'd patched it

[thorn hedge]

no

[distant walrus]

I'm only 186

[thorn hedge]

ok

just dont do something thatll get u banned

[olive python]

Forgot to bring the rope down in a mission and now I can’t get up to the top of building to get the shd cache

[thorn hedge]

is it the one with the crane

[olive python]

Downtown west

Yes

[thorn hedge]

oof

[olive python]

Any ideas?

[thorn hedge]

nope

[nimble spruce]

can you shoot the rope? Some have a little thing on them you can shoot which makes the rope go down

[olive python]

I would think that’s an overlooked issue with this game?

[clever ocean]

i'm p sure you can just call a mod whenever someone recommends to do an explicit exploit that the devs literally said they'll ban over lol

they're 100% not recommending it out of goodwill at that point

[thorn hedge]

you can i wont

[clever ocean]

too nice

[thorn hedge]

lol

relatable

[clever ocean]

this is why people bulli u

[olive python]

If someone who has beaten that mission invites me to that game and has that rope down will I be able to get it?

[thorn hedge]

everyone gets bullied in life, thats just part of it

[nimble spruce]

which mission? Can't you just run back around the long way to get there again?

[clever ocean]

they cant bully me if theyre dead

[olive python]

Crane mission

One with help an npc save his friend

I’ve been looking for a way up but can’t find it, it’s needs a rope but I forgot to put it down so I can get up their later

[oak talon]

there is a double door you can open, and go up the building that way

its always accessible

[nimble spruce]

there are more SHD caches than you actually need to unlock everything so it's not the end of the world if you don't get it

also if that's the one I'm thinking of, that rope is bugged anyway - you actually can't lower it from the top

(once you've unlocked the bounty guy you can also run bounties in that region and they'll likely put you back in the mission area)

[olive python]

You said double doors- that’s the magic solution lmao thanks

[oak talon]

its easy to miss, so has come up before, so knew the issue well

[hazy belfry]

can i farm the merciless on countdown or do i need to do stronghold

[nimble spruce]

can farm it anywhere, but recommend you don't bother, it's a terrible gun

[hazy belfry]

i just want it for my collection of exotics

[nimble spruce]

fair enough, countdown is probably your best bet, but play the game long enough and you're bound to get one from an exotic cache or random drop

[olive python]

Ok, what the best machine gun type?

[nimble spruce]

I'm inclined to say 'I don't understand the question' (lmgs have some pretty major disadvantages compared to other weapon types) but I believe GR9 is one of the (relatively) more popular ones

[thorny swallow]

LMGs are weird in the sense that there are large mag and low mag sized ones. that and they're generally not good compared to any other weapon type. MG5, GR9, RPK and Bluescreen are the better of them

technically speaking RPK and L86 are the best on paper for pure DPS, but I'm of the opinion that due to their low mag size you're always gonna be better off using an AR than either of them. LMGs are fun with higher mag sizes so if you're gonna use one, use one of those

[hazy belfry]

depends on what you wanna do

i personally like the gr9 dare

[clever ocean]

i dont see the point of the low mag ones tbh

[hazy belfry]

for the perfect flatline

[clever ocean]

you're forced to use fast hands to compensate and you can't use a shield because it's a LMG

[hazy belfry]

the issue imo is that the suppression is kinda annoying usually

[clever ocean]

dare kinda sucks ass

unfortunately, due to attachment issues

[hazy belfry]

its decent enouhg for countdown but yeah i get what you mean

its fun to do 700k crits with 200 rounds tho

if you wanna be meta if you can call an lmg that youre forced into the l86 mostly

if you wanna have fun id pick the biggest mag

the most fun one is the bullet king but its ass

[thorny swallow]

you can have just as much fun with anything over 100 rounds and steady handed and do more damage than BK is the problem

[hazy belfry]

i mean if were talking playing solo and not on heroic just get the chatterbox for mag capacity

[fallow inlet]

Hey Kettle

[clever ocean]

would u or anyone else be down to grind some cps with me later

[thorny swallow]

I'm away until tomorrow sorry mate

[clever ocean]

rip

guess i have to do it solo

[nimble spruce]

hey Saph

[hazy belfry]

what difficutly

[clever ocean]

heroic wanna come?

[hazy belfry]

i gotta make myself dinner first but later sure

is a status effect build ok with you?

[clever ocean]

ya whatever you want. it might be easier with proper dps but it doesn't matter

[hazy belfry]

alright im ready

[clever ocean]

kk

name?

[hazy belfry]

inv sent

[edgy wharf]

hey there everyone . sorry if this is the wrong topic . but has there been any new info about The Division Heartlands ?

[knotty plinth]

@edgy wharf no

But I expect paid exotics

And season passes

[narrow kraken]

Hi, hello.
I need some assistance... I haven't played in 2 years and I am overwhelmed by what new stuff there is to the game.
I don't want to go hunting for things that I don't remember I have already done in the past. I would really appreciate some help as I go with one of you through what I got going on my end.

[foggy needle]

zero, have to wait for more info to be released, no eta on that though

[edgy wharf]

oh thank you for the info

[versed pumice]

What u need help with

[arctic grail]

Hullo, I’m having an issue with understanding invaded missions. If a mission is invaded (ex. the Grand Washington Hotel) and I need to farm a boss in there for a part (for the Nemesis) can I replay the invaded mission during the week, or am I limited to only once?

[olive python]

West end- shd tech cache on roof looks like a office building

Looking for a way up even tried the doors

Any ideas?

[knotty plinth]

Shoot the thing

The beanbag

On the cable

@olive python

[olive python]

Ok thank you

[tulip fiber]

You can replay the invaded missions during their week.

[arctic grail]

o thank you

[hazy belfry]

i think you have to go to the other side of the building find a way up

[scenic merlin]

Hello, Does anyone know the radius of appearance of exotics in the dark zone? of course talking about eagle bear and bighorn. Since I've been walking for 2 days, and I only got two pestilences and one Sweet dreams ae.

[versed pumice]

Both are pretty low

They made the drop % low asf so people will still try getting em in raids

[distant walrus]

Apparently I don't have the mission, only just the original camp mission @thorn hedge

[thorn hedge]

You'll get it through the season reward track then

[distant walrus]

Dam

[thorn hedge]

@knotty plinth

fear me

[sharp leaf]

never die ?

[thorn hedge]

do you know what that 22 expertise gives me lmfao

[sharp leaf]

negative

[thorn hedge]

ill show in a moment

[sharp leaf]

shame

I was ready for it being rev speed or skill haste etc.

[versed pumice]

How useless

[sharp leaf]

well, if it can revive behind walls (never tried) it has uses

in legendary etc.

[thorn hedge]

nope

[sharp leaf]

useless

[thorn hedge]

exactly lol

but id be lying if i said it didnt save a run or two

[sharp leaf]

but not range bonus probably 😄

[knotty plinth]

Ha need that as a stinger in conflict

[thorn hedge]

stinger is +dmg

[knotty plinth]

Ah shame

[thorn hedge]

lol

the other skills i have at 22 are my striker shield, bulwark shield, and burn sticky

[knotty plinth]

I do miss the explosive sticky in div 1

[thorn hedge]

we have an explosive stick in this game

[knotty plinth]

Its not the SAAAMMMEEE 😭

[thorn hedge]

how

[knotty plinth]

Same goes for the seekers

[sharp leaf]

never the same

[dim crag]

Flashbang sticky when

[hazy belfry]

is there a way to affect drop rates in countdown for exotics

ive not seen one in like 15 runs

[knotty plinth]

No

[kindred pine]

Last week I was doing my invades when I got the stronghold is said random nemesis part in the list of what drops. This weeks strong hold does not, but I don't have every part... what gives?

[knotty plinth]

Did u deconstruct the Adrestia SR-1 from the secret room in Tidal Basin?

To get the exotic quest going

[clever ocean]

i've found that bounties are more effective for farming exotics than TL in summit/cd

[kindred pine]

Yes, I have most of the parts except the scales

I though specific strong holds had specific parts, but it saying a random part made me think they changed it so just doing a strong hold would get one you need

[knotty plinth]

100% chance to get 'Stock – The Bridle' from Invaded District Union Arena named boss 'Aurora "Klutz" Kay'
100% chance to get 'Bolt – The Scales' from Invaded Roosevelt Island named boss 'Erin "Shorty" Linwood'
100% chance to get 'Barrel – The Scourge' from Invaded Capitol Hill named boss 'David "Prime" Maxwell'
100% chance to get the Nemesis Blueprint from invaded Grand Washington Hotel named enemy 'Phaedra "Puck" Lao'

So you need invaded Roosevelt Island.

If you have already completed the invaded version, then u can select in mission options.

[kindred pine]

I thought you couldn't select invaded for something unless its on it for that week?

[knotty plinth]

Any previously completed invaded missions can be reselected in mission options

[inner tendon]

Small addition: Invaded Manning Zoo will give you 1 random part that you don't have, not including the Blueprint.

[raven pecan]

wait have u done the invaded roosevelt island before?

[knotty plinth]

Iv done all the invaded strongholds

[raven pecan]

could host an invaded roosevelt for me?

since all i need is the scales and then i have the nemesis

[inner tendon]

I see the confusion here:
you can only re-do an Invaded mission if it's already active this week.
e.g. if Roosevelt isn't Invaded this week, you can't do Roosevelt.

[kindred pine]

^ that is what I thought

[raven pecan]

ah so he cant host it rn

[inner tendon]

Just remember that you can get the BP from GWH (Grand Washington Hotel) once you have 2 Nemesis parts, but still can't craft it without the full set.

[kindred pine]

Well that does pose another question, are invade universal or random to each person?

[inner tendon]

Invaded missions are the same for everyone.

[knotty plinth]

Yh for strongholds u have to wait

[kindred pine]

Yea I have the blueprint just missing the scales

[coarse plume]

What’s a good SHD level to do raids and start legendary difficulty?

[knotty plinth]

Missions u can replay

If u need the strongholds, gotta wait each Tuesday for reset

[inner tendon]

You can "toggle invaded" for every Invaded one you've done that week.
Strongholds only give 1 Nemesis part per/week though.

[knotty plinth]

Roughly 3/4 weeks to finish nemesis

[cedar yacht]

It depends if you have the build for it

[raven pecan]

if you get lucky

[knotty plinth]

I still prefer mantis tho

[inner tendon]

The biggest recorded gap between GWH being Invaded so far is 7 weeks.
Better start praying to RNG.

[cedar yacht]

Or you can get someone to drop it and skip it entirely

[inner tendon]

Note: that won't complete the Project, just give you a copy.
and if you want to drop more copies yourself, you need the Blueprint.

[cedar yacht]

Oh? I see.

[knotty plinth]

That only gives u the upgrade blueprint

The devs intend for u to finish the quest

[coarse plume]

What builds are good for it?

[knotty plinth]

Need more exotics

Alot lot more

[inner tendon]

@coarse plume For Dark Hours raid, you just need a basic red DPS build.
what's far more important though is knowing the basic layout of the Raid, and listening to the Raid Leader.

[coarse plume]

Thank you for that info

[inner tendon]

There's a build pinned in the spreadsheet 📌 over in #td2-build-advice, called "Standard red DPS". Make that and you can handle a lot of later game content.

all builds in that spreadsheet are Heroic certified.

[coarse plume]

Appreciate the help

[knotty plinth]

One day

[kindred pine]

I complete the Jefferson manhunt and it said I unlocked the bluescreen blueprint, but I don't see it in the crafting table?

[tender talon]

Does anyone know when the Resident Evil Apparel event end? I'm new to the game and a huge RE fan.

[knotty plinth]

It hasn't even started yet @tender talon

But if u need to keep track of what events are when you can go to your seasons tab

The entire seasons roadmap is on there

For season 11

[tender talon]

I thought it did? A friend of mine who is guiding me into the game told me the outfits were available. But I'll check the roadmap, thank you!

[knotty plinth]

Outfits are available yes. The actual event however has not started yet

[hallow raptor]

So crafting the regulus is still glitched?….

[knotty plinth]

Yup

No official date on when the fix will be

[hallow raptor]

Standard

[narrow kraken]

is there any way to complete this contamination zone the angel of mercy ? i run it always but never can complete

[inner tendon]

What seems to be the issue? If you can't enter, sometimes the climbing prompt glitches out.

[narrow kraken]

i runned the whole zone just to claim it but it doesnt do

i looked everywhere for anything to claim but there isnt

just angel holding hand like i should give him something

[fallow inlet]

Look for audios

Have to collect them all

[narrow kraken]

there is no

[fallow inlet]

Might need someone who's done it to help

Like I do for Darpa

[abstract scarab]

question, is div 2 hit scan or is there bullet travel? or a mix of both?

[wraith flare]

hitscan

[quasi niche]

Hitscan except things like Crossbow, Chem Launcher, Sticky (obviously)

[slate mortar]

How do you access this area? Is it a paid dlc?

[narrow kraken]

its not

[hybrid onyx]

question, what is the highest achievable sticky bomb dmg?

[unkempt bison]

is it possible to play w my PS4 friend?

[knotty plinth]

no

there is no cross platform. Only across PC clients

[unkempt bison]

gotchu thanks

[narrow kraken]

So I'm lvl 27 what do I do now just lvl up and do the strongholds??

[knotty plinth]

continue through and get to New York

if you dont have the expansion then complete the strongholds to get to WT5

[wraith flare]

best still to go through the world tiers & then going to NY

[narrow kraken]

Is NY even good?

[true siren]

New york'd DLC, Warlords of New York (WONY) is essentially the second half of the game. Builds open up and the seasonal tracks also open. If you like the game, WONY is more game.

[fast junco]

I've hit really high with my artillery build, but stickies are weird in the firing range so hard to test

[livid shore]

anyone knows if blocking a player limits their ability to inspect you?

[narrow kraken]

wony is the main thing of the whole game i would say

[thorn hedge]

who thought it was a good idea to call the mod by this name

[cedar schooner]

Makes me think the names are randomly assigned based on slot

[kindred pine]

is busy little bee in the loot pool by default?

[cedar schooner]

I believe you need the liberty first. It’s in caches though

[kindred pine]

I have liberty

[cedar schooner]

Then it should be in loot pools

[narrow kraken]

Well I'm world tier 1 should I start working on builds or no?

[true siren]

Not really. If you find two peices that seem to go well together, might as well run them for a bit.

[scarlet maple]

whats the fastest way for expertise to level up? im currently at lv 12 and 3/4 of the items are proficient but cant seem to level fast very well. any advices?

[fallow inlet]

Hey Aspect

[hazy belfry]

Farm the stuff to donate deconstruct anything that's not the set/gun and donate that too

[narrow kraken]

Hey, just got my game on PS5, and learned that the level cap is 30, but can be extended to 40, I'm lvl 5 atm, should I level to lv 30 and then buy the warlords of new york expanison?

[fallow inlet]

if its on sale get it now then just wprk your way normal

[hazy belfry]

id recommend the same try to get it on sale the game has plenty of content til level 30 to last a bit

[compact pagoda]

@everyone need some help please what is the keybind to switch weapon from left to right side for console it was right thumb click

[true siren]

1- everyone ping doesnt work
2- its tab

[hazy belfry]

also there is a keybinds tab in the settings so you can see it there or change it if you dont like that button

[compact pagoda]

found it it's shift

[true siren]

yeah, coming back to it i feel kinda dum. I'm chalking it up to being sleep deprived.

[olive python]

How does one advance to world tier 2

[wraith flare]

.

[lethal rampart]

I'm currently trying to complete firewall stage 4 and one of the things for it is to complete darpa research labs mission but I can't access the area for it even though I've completed the requirements any ideas on what I should do?

[carmine pelican]

if i put something in the recal library can i only improve that stat if i put in another item that has a higher stat value

[olive python]

Is there a way to increase seeker mines intensity and numbers of it simultaneously?

How to decrease cooldown time

Thank you

[hallow plume]

is there a fix for no drone controller mission?

[inner tendon]

Oh that old thing is bugged again?

[cedar yacht]

my mans is risking it all.

[zealous ether]

Should i enable or disable 'low latency mode' in settinfs?

[zealous ether]

U can do one or the other

[zealous ether]

Faye lau

[olive python]

I’m curious, can’t matchmKe in world tiers?

*matchmake

[hallow raptor]

Not many down there to matchmake with, try calling for backup

[olive python]

Yeah

[hallow raptor]

Power comes when they boot you from the discord…. lol

[fast junco]

The problem only started because they deleted it

The original caption was "me at massive hq when I can't craft the regulus after 2 months"

[cedar yacht]

because thats more for general chat

[hallow raptor]

That should tell you something, but your not listening…

[cedar yacht]

and now you're just asking for it

[fast junco]

Because it doesn't need to be deleted

Just leave it there

[hallow raptor]

Get over yourself….

[fast junco]

Hurts nobody

[cedar yacht]

it can be so if its this channel but whatever floats your boat

[fast junco]

Fuck off

[hallow raptor]

Yawn… that falls under rule #1

[fast junco]

You tell me to get over myself and I respond in kind

[cedar schooner]

Get over yourself

[fast junco]

Mf says "yawn" then sites a rule

Cites*

[hallow raptor]

I see it got deleted again….

[fast junco]

1984

[wraith flare]

do try to keep it civil I don't know who deleted the original but after being deleted 2 times already I ask that you don't post it again

[distant walrus]

Okay so I finished General Anderson manhunt.

What I don't understand is I should have captain Lewis, Faye Lau, Schaeffer, Hornet, and Jupiter manhunt missions permanently unlocked.

Why tf has these not popped up for me???

[carmine flicker]

Are you the right level in the season pass?

[distant walrus]

70

I barley finally finished General Anderson manhunt, normal too bcuz I got sick of people telling me to put it on heroic

After so many attempts too I kept having to leave to work

[carmine flicker]

Have you gone to the mission locations (camp white oak, tidal basin, coney island amusement park, and roosevelt island) and opened up the mission options and selected toggle mission mode if the option was there?

[distant walrus]

WHWRE TF DOESIT SAY TOGGLE?????

[carmine flicker]

For xbox you should have to hold y

[distant walrus]

NOBODY'S TOLD ME THAT WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[carmine flicker]

It tells you at the bottom of the screen but it’s small and nothing else is there so unlikely you’d look there in the first place

[distant walrus]

I see it now but nobody until now has told me this

[distant walrus]

THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!

[jade summit]

When earning CP blueprints I don't have to worry about duplicates do I?

[silent plaza]

hey guys i need a grup backcap with wicked CC and CHD is it best to put Grup as targeted loot or Backpacks as targeted?

[hallow raptor]

Grupo, 1/6 is a better chance than 1/very many

[distant walrus]

Did anyone get banned ?

[fallow inlet]

@jade summitnope only get 1

@distant walrus you asked that already in the other channel

[distant walrus]

I'm just asking tho I did it at the same time lol

[wary spoke]

Is Matador a DZ exclusive?

[distant walrus]

No I've gotten it

[maiden mantle]

I just finished WONY and now level 40. What should I be focusing on doing now? I don’t know how builds work in the game and am at a loss on what I should be focusing on between getting blueprints or filling up my recalibration station.

[hallow raptor]

Yes

[hallow raptor]

Check #new-player-resources and there is a pinned spreadsheet with multiple builds in the hubs tab in #td2-build-advice

[maiden mantle]

I’ll give it a look thanks.

[kindred pine]

Is there any requirement before mantis because avaliable in the loot pool?

Also is Lullaby really only available if you buy the deluxe pack? I bought the ultimate pack and still didn't get that, what bs

[ivory sundial]

Even the stash?

[ivory sundial]

Also none required just farm MR (marksman rifle) loot

[distant walrus]

Here's a curious question If you were to go after hunters in free roam can you have your global difficulty on normal?

[wraith flare]

yes

[distant walrus]

But would they still be a challenge tho? 🤔

If not I might do that soon

[next perch]

Catharsis mask.
Is it really that great in pvp?
8/10 when I am downed,the healing cloud rarely appears...

[distant walrus]

I have it too as well My PVP build is not all perfect since all the cores are red and I use that mask but when I go in the dark zone I get my ass kicked to be honest

I don't know if it's because not all my gear is like fully maxed but I I'm no professional

[next perch]

I have 5 blues,gear all maxed with some expertise.even with adrenaline rush and unbreakable,hardly see the cloud

[next perch]

You need at least 3 blues or more.....
Lol even 5 can't save me sometimes

[distant walrus]

Lucky I have the same not all my attributes or mods are full unfortunately

[distant walrus]

I ended up with red cuz I can't recalibrate them unless I grind the same pieces again then change those blue lol

The day I get all that I'm doing 6 blues

[next perch]

Better to grind for them first...

[distant walrus]

I did and attributes sucked so I had to recalibrate those. But I gotta grind again just so I can recalibrate the cores. So technically I have a somewhat all red version of it, not all maxed. But I at least know now what pieces to grind again until I get god rollsll

[dull pasture]

whats the difference between FAL and SA-58?

[odd condor]

Visual model differences - the FALs all have the same stats and mod slots

also trivia I guess - the SA-58 is a somewhat modernised FAL made new in the US, as opposed to an older FAL modified

[olive python]

I’m wondering if it’s possible to for two character one in one club that’s build by another person and the second character is in club that’s build by self (owner)?

[fallow inlet]

No 2 different accounts

[olive python]

Ok ty

[vast crest]

what scales grenade damage?

[hazy belfry]

explosive damage im pretty sure

[valid bronze]

What build are you running?

[versed pumice]

It's good

[thorn hedge]

Explosive damage, generic amps like glass cannon, damage to targets out of cover, damage to armour, damage to health

Striker shield also does iirc

[crude falcon]

which one should yield more EXP ? Challenge with directive (3+) or Vanilla Heroic difficulty ?

[kindred pine]

third time in a row I crashed in countdown wtf

[hallow raptor]

The ones that you can do the fastest will give you the most XP per hour…. Plus if you look at the rewards it tells you how much XP you’ll get

[crude falcon]

can this apply to drop rate ?

i always think the more dificulty = more drop rate

but not consider the time clear/reclear from fail

[hallow raptor]

Directives increases the chance for targeted loot, difficulty increases the quality of the drops

[crude falcon]

quality of drop mean grade (purple/yellow) or the quality of attributes ?

[hallow raptor]

Attributes… and challenging+ removes purple gear from mission drops.

[crude falcon]

oh no, heroic it is then

thanks mate, that help alot

[hallow raptor]

@crude falcon

[crude falcon]

another chart send to my basement

[shy vault]

Is there anything worth buying in the Countdown requisition station? If so, what is it I should buy

[knotty plinth]

Whatever it is u need

I regularly buy multitudes of everything based on what im after at the time

[austere bough]

anyone have any tips on early game? i played td1 alot but dont remember anything from playing lol

[cedar yacht]

Whats your current progress?

[austere bough]

im level 15 right now

[cedar yacht]

did you just started playing the game?

[austere bough]

yeah 2 days ago

[cedar yacht]

ok so you are basically just gonna go through missions and equip the strongest items you get

and make sure to get shd caches for and unlock all the skills and such

[austere bough]

okay cool ty

ive seen shd caches on the map ill go see them now

[sonic haven]

Is there any particular reason why the game is still regularly crashing?

[rustic sorrel]

is the doctor home rifle any good? just got one

[carmine flicker]

It’s not very good

[rustic sorrel]

well ok

is it still worth it getting the current season pass? How long will it approximately take to level up to 100?

[cedar schooner]

It’s solid. Its the highest DPS rifle last I checked.

[nimble spruce]

DPS limited by how fast you can click, theoretical dps is not necessarily attainable without a clicking macro and probably some very effective recoil control technique

[hazy belfry]

if you use 2 piece hotshot recoil is basically 0

its fun to use but its still not really going to output the dps of a smg or ar

[nimble spruce]

fixed scope tho 🤮

[hazy belfry]

yeah the 8x is especially bad imo

no idea why they made the reticle just a circle on it

have any of you found a use for the sweet dreams on higher difficulty

the talent seems kinda wasted

[nimble spruce]

mostly during melee kill challenges for global events, other than that I know some players like the option and consider scorpio too OP to be fun

[hazy belfry]

also do any of you have an easy to read list on all exotics

[nimble spruce]

I just use the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice but it's probably not that easy to use on a mobile

[hazy belfry]

ah thanks didnt know that was there

[cedar schooner]

It’s not that hard to use tbh… it’s not like the usc. 45

[narrow matrix]

Running smg hunters fury with it to knock out purples or reds to save ammo / reduce kill time

Also for breaking weak points

[hazy belfry]

what shotgun outside the scorpio do you guys like to use

[nimble spruce]

popular choice is M870 with Pummel, on headhunters fury build it can 1-tap almost everything

[narrow kraken]

So I'm trying to make a rng build for pve what specialison do I need

[fallow inlet]

Hey Kettle

[hybrid igloo]

So I am a old returning player from D1 and I am not sure what I should be focusing on for builds or content. I know I need a good build but all the ones on Youtube seem to be very far away from where I am. What should I be doing and Is there a simple build that is good for PVE and some ? any help is nice:)

[buoyant patio]

Is the decoy skill hackable?

[nimble spruce]

hey Saph

[tropic plover]

Um, yeah, wtf?

[fallow inlet]

@hybrid igloowork on content and just start with a basic red dps build

[narrow kraken]

Wait so how do I get my settlements back since I'm world tier 3?

Do I just keep doing the strongholds?

[fallow inlet]

yup youll gwt all the way to wt5 then tidal basin then over to wony

[narrow kraken]

I don't own wony

[fallow inlet]

ok yuoll only bw able to get to gearscore 515

wony is on sale a lot

[vagrant aurora]

how do i unlock countdown ? Not showing up on my map buy i cant seem to find anywhere that tells me i have to unlock it

[buoyant patio]

Go to washington

It will appear on the map

[vagrant aurora]

cant click on pentco

[cedar schooner]

If you can’t matchmake for it in your map, go to the helipad east of the White House entrance

[daring spruce]

is there really no legendary here? idk why the orange thing is popping up at top left

[hazy belfry]

it tells me insufficient expertise level when i try to level the expertise past 3

why im already proficient

oh

the expertise level is at 3 lol forgot about that being a limiting factor

[vagrant aurora]

got it cheers

[fallow inlet]

@daring sprucetoggle the capital to to legendary then do it forn the daily

@hazy belfry need to get your proficiency higher

[wispy merlin]

toggle mission mode at the bottom, click it or hold G. you're in invaded mode while legendary is in normal mode only

[olive python]

Looking for VP of my club - daily player is preferred DM me if interested

[nimble stone]

Does anyone know if dread edict can drop in exotic cache with no prior requirement?

[fallow inlet]

yes

[nimble stone]

and MMR targeted too?

I've opened 50+ since it's released D:

[inner tendon]

It's just RNG.
Think about how many Exotics are in the TL+Exotic Cache pool, and remember that each chance is 1/however many there are.
With no RNG protection.

[latent frigate]

Always fun when u get same few in chests all the time 😂

[pure charm]

does the lady death still drop from the new york open world boss?

[valid bronze]

It can yes

[inner tendon]

It doesn't actually have to though.
All the "new york bosses" Exotics have been added to the general loot pool.

[latent spade]

any info on next update?

[wraith flare]

nope

[valid bronze]

Lol we don't even have an update on the manhunt reward

[silent plaza]

can someone help everytime i join Countdown the appreance of my Backpack changes its so weird ive tried deleting loadout and putting new one and everything but nothing it just keeps changing

[small ledge]

Hey everyone, what skills/talents help repair your shield?

[stoic bear]

Why is the game taking for ever to load… then the lag is so bad I can’t even kill anything

What the fuck is massive doing

[golden geode]

Strangely my pc version loads faster than my console version

[narrow kraken]

So I'm trying to get the invaded missions done but the armor on the enemies are a pain any suggestions on how I can shred them

[nimble spruce]

Lower difficulty or improve your build. See the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice for some good builds to try

[hazy belfry]

Alternatively get a friend/someone here to play with you and help you out

[narrow kraken]

I'm only world tier 3

[nimble spruce]

Ah, ok - you just need to farm higher gear score weapons then mainly

Or you can craft them actually

Or just go full yellow and run tier 6 turret and drone, since they scale automatically

[narrow kraken]

How do I get tier 6 turret

[nimble spruce]

Wear gear that has yellow (skill tier) core stats

[narrow kraken]

So wear full skill?

I'll see if I got skill armor

[narrow kraken]

@nimble spruce ty dude ur a star getting further then I was with my drone

[olive python]

need help with arron keener, in DLC last mission

whos willing play with me to beat him

[dull mortar]

I just done countdown for first time nd holy moly is this the fastest way to farm loot in the game atm?

[nimble spruce]

yes

[dull mortar]

I think I know what to do this week XD

[narrow kraken]

is pentagon best way to farm btsu gloves ?

[inner tendon]

Ignore specific missions for farming exotics.

then either Countdown or Directives.```

[lusty osprey]

What's better as an atribute? Damage to armor or damage to targets out of cover?

[wraith flare]

out of cover

[lusty osprey]

Is the damage calculated the same? I was thinking that damage to armor should be more effective against most enemies on heroic/legendary.

[wraith flare]

don't know how it differs personally but I'm sure the people usually active in #td2-build-advice will be able to tell you

[compact kiln]

anyone know where i can kill cursed boss?

[dim crag]

Afaik yes, but dttooc counts towards everything out of cover, while DtA only to the white armor bar above enemies

So chungas, dogs, drones, red bars, DtA doesn't work on them

[lusty osprey]

Fair point. Thank you.

[hazy belfry]

you have to do all the prerequisites first and then take the bounty

its among the normal bounties but has a yellow symbol marking it

[compact kiln]

yes thank you

[compact kiln]

and where can i find him exactly?

[cedar schooner]

He’ll be at tidal basin

[compact kiln]

the stronghold or just the area?

[cedar schooner]

The stronghold

[olive orbit]

what does these symbol mean

[still raven]

Hardcore

[olive orbit]

I see

[narrow kraken]

Wait I got a mission in the white house and it reset my strongholds is that meant to happen??

[thorn hedge]

did you just reach level 30

[narrow kraken]

No

I just reached tier 5

[thorn hedge]

it should have reset one of them

[narrow kraken]

Nah all of them did

[thorn hedge]

can you show a pic

[narrow kraken]

Ye sure

Lemme load back in

Like I finished tidal basin and I had a mission to go talk to a guy in the Whitehouse and now I have to unlock tidal basin and my capitol Hill strongholds again @thorn hedge

[thorn hedge]

yeah thats normal

thats the weekly invasion

itll change to a different stronghold tomorrow since thats reset day

[narrow kraken]

Oh I didn't know

[fallow inlet]

Hope everyone has a good gaming day

[narrow kraken]

Is this an issue with anyone else the mission marker normally takes u the wrong way??

[fresh vault]

Sigh. Patch notes been released and still no sign of fixing the bug where the shit that we can't see in the apparel leaving us with a permanent exclamation mark or being forced some appearances on our items.

[sacred edge]

Still no countdown fix :\

[distant walrus]

I only had it twice out of 8 matches that it had not started the objectives but the other 6 matches worked just fine so idk how I got lucky

[sacred edge]

If I get a bugged loading, aka skipped the waiting for players and and the cut scene I just quite out cause I know its bugged

[median hemlock]

If you wait like 15-30 seconds it usually fixes itself

Most people have already left by then so it's a moot point though

[narrow kraken]

Hold up for classifieds do I do the strongholds or raids

[narrow matrix]

no

they pretty much take place before the missions tbh

[hazy belfry]

is a bulwark shield pistol build viable for countdown

[dim crag]

No

[hazy belfry]

thought so

[zealous ether]

What patch notes?

[olive python]

Asking about the answer the call when someone asks for help what do I do

Looking for instructions

[thorny swallow]

i mean it kinda is

HH HF determined d50

[median hemlock]

Determined getting the nerf is depressing. I know they're just fixing to how it should have been, but it was really nice to have sniping be accessible for people with potato aim like me

[foggy needle]

#patch-notes listed here and #557396261662097409

[fresh vault]

What's so negative about teh Determined change? I might have missed it

[dim crag]

My thought was some Liberty tank build

[dull sun]

Hey whats the best way to get maxed mods ?

[inner tendon]

The higher difficulty you play, the better your lowest possible stats are for loot you pick up from enemies.
So playing on Challenging/Heroic/Legendary will net you better loot overall than on lower difficulties.

[knotty plinth]

And better minimum rolls as well

If ur after max rolls you will have higher chances on heroic

[dull sun]

Than legendary ?

[dull sun]

I know that but there is not a better way than others to get them ?

like countdown / summit or something else ?

[knotty plinth]

Well no because legendary is the highest

But there isn't many sources of legendary difficulty

Anything can drop loot

Its the difficulty and/or directives added that determine how loot drops

I personally do countdown for my loot. But that's because I enjoy doing countdown and also get requisition points to use out of it

For others its summit. Legendary missions etc

Or just running the same CP4

[dull sun]

CP4 ?

[knotty plinth]

Control points level 4

[hazy belfry]

is the bighorn good?

[thorn hedge]

Not rly

[cunning cosmos]

for pve should i be using the famas or eb on my striker build? i seriously dont know which is better

[thorn hedge]

Imo famas

[main briar]

Does the Shield Splinterer have lower base damage than the regular F2000? The spreadsheet lists them as having identical damage values, but Mxswat's build tool has the SS dealing less damage and I don't have a spare F2000 in-game to check which is actually the case

[thorny swallow]

no, the db has the same values too

raise a bug for it

[main briar]

gotcha, thanks for the info

[wintry cave]

Is it possible to get the relic or prophet blueprint? I don't see it on the pass anywhere and I don't think any of the targets reward it do they?

[cedar yacht]

Its should be in the pass unless its bugged

[wintry cave]

I'm at rank 100 and I still don't have them and I don't see the blueprints on the pass at all even in the premium part.

[main briar]

i believe they're bugged since i'm also at max season rank and both blueprints show up as locked for me in the crafting menu

and i do have the premium pass as well (not that it should matter, premium passes are always only cosmetics)

[wary spoke]

I run it on my 2m Regen with weapon handling

What's the deal with the Jammer changes? I have to be tier 3 to jam players correct?

[thorn hedge]

You need to be 3 levels below the player to jam them

Levels meaning skill tier

[wary spoke]

Ahh ok thank you!

[snow quartz]

Just got back into the game after a year, went into the dark zone, and got flamed for using this build XD. I play with an average of 20fps on lowest graphics so this is the safest i can go. Any pvp build suggestions when I get a better pc?

[narrow matrix]

U need chc and crit damage … heartbreaker won’t work bc it needs stacks

[dim crag]

Someone with pulse immunity completely nullifies your build

[distant walrus]

Is the game under maintenance?

[cedar yacht]

it is now

[distant walrus]

How long

[fallow inlet]

30mins to 3hrs

[fallow inlet]

Division 3 closed beta starts in 30mins

[dim crag]

What?

[dull mortar]

On D1 whenever I cleared a Landmark, i got a clean loot directly in my inventory. Is this the same too in D2 or not?

[zealous ether]

yaya

im redditing

[little sun]

So I read the Regulus crafting was fixed earlier today, however for me none of the 686 pistol versions (I have the regular and the "replica" ones) still count towards the project so I still can't make it. Anyone know what to do here?

[tulip fiber]

Try crafting a new one after the update?

[little sun]

I just did lol

Crafted both the normal and the replica one like two minutes ago, it even told me the project is "ready for completion" but it still says I dont have the 686 apparently

Oh wait, now it counts after I put it in the stash and took it out again, ffs

[narrow matrix]

Does naked talent increase based off pristine example and marksman rifle damage (on weapon hit)

[narrow kraken]

I keep seeing these crate things like true sons crate and it says 0/1 keys how do I get keys

[wispy merlin]

it's just headshot damage

[zealous ether]

How do i get rid of big blocky pixelated shadows?

Example

[dim crag]

That's the strap from your backpack?

[zealous ether]

I havent asked what causes the shadow, i asked how to fix the fact that its blocky

[dim crag]

Sandpaper and file the edges until its smooth

[zealous ether]

Example 2

[raven trout]

looks like shadow resolution

[zealous ether]

Also shadow on floor

[zealous ether]

I mean i went trough all shadow settings 1 by 1 from low to high

[raven trout]

that box shadow on the ground is definately due to low shadow resolution tho

shadow quality to be precise

[thorny swallow]

isn't there a specific option for shadow resolution

separate to shadow quality

[zealous ether]

lemme find a shadow source

[raven trout]

I mean I had the same "issue" and I just maxed shadow quality and restarted

[zealous ether]

spot on high, and spot res on ultra

shadows themselves on low

[raven trout]

so why does it look good now?

[zealous ether]

i changed those 2 s ettings

lemme switch spot shadows to low

Its this setting

has to be on ultra to avoid any blockiness

[raven trout]

but it's not tho

weird I dno

[zealous ether]

spot shadow res ultra

spot shadow res on low (blocky mess)

[vast mesa]

Im relatively new, what type of gear do I need for a raid?

[zealous ether]

dps for starters

[inner tendon]

for Dark Hours, pretty much just a basic Red core focused DPS crit build.
Iron Horse is a little more complex.

[little sun]

Get yourself a DPS build for the start, you can branch out from there. Use the gear sheet pinned to #td2-build-advice for a good example - you want to build the brand one (not gearsets)

[inner tendon]

50% CHC, 150% CHD, that's a good basic to work around for Dark Hours.
Get to that and you can use it in Heroic too.

[vast mesa]

which brandset would u recommend, striker/hunter?

[stuck frigate]

Heyho - Does Dark Winter drop in Summit for targeted SMG loot? Thank you.

[little sun]

Striker and Hunter stuff is a gearset, not the same - they're more specialized and not the best for "general" use. Your first DPS build should be a 3p Providence, 1p Grupo, Fox's Prayer named kneepads and then something like Coyote's

[inner tendon]

Dark Winter is locked to the DZ, so no.
Only DZ/conflict/named item caches. (and legacy ones, but that's an even bigger loot pool)

[stuck frigate]

Ouch, okay. Thanks for the info. So no chance at all except for DZ I assume

[narrow kraken]

Any good builds I can do at lvl 30 or do I need to be 40??

[inner tendon]

^

[little sun]

If you really dont want to farm the DZ, you can try rolling named item caches 😄

Countdown vendor is a good option, assuming countdown itself actually works...

[inner tendon]

If you own the expansion, all your stuff at Lvl 30 will be trashed by Lvl 40.

[vast mesa]

theres not rlly a point at 30

[zealous ether]

Anyway, im still looking for a solution regarding my crushed blacks (specially on floor 100 summit), its literally pitch black (my color range is set to full) and contrast/brightness do nothing

[narrow kraken]

I'm broke as sheet for that 🤣

[vast mesa]

the endgame requires WONY which is sad :/

[inner tendon]

It's on sale a lot.
If you do plan to buy it at some point, I'd honestly not try and farm before then. It's pretty much a different game when you finish WONY.

[stuck frigate]

Close & Personal or fast hands on a vector? I'm using obliterate on my chest, and I like to push enemies (PVE) (Aiming towards high & heavy crits)

[lime night]

Try both

[inner tendon]

Fast Hands feels kinda redundant on a vector, it already snap-reloads.
I'd honestly suggest something like Strained.

Damage talents are fun too.

[stuck frigate]

Good points all around, thanks.

[foggy needle]

if you really want to use vector, then fast hands. because you are reloading it as much as you are shooting it. but TBH just use a better SMG

Vectors fall off hard on heroic +

[inner tendon]

I'm resisting the urge to start preaching about my beloved DW again.

[lime night]

DW as dark winter?

[stuck frigate]

I'm trying some out, so i'm open to any input, normally using Lady death

[inner tendon]

Yep, Dark Winter.
If you enjoy Lady Death, you should consider the CMMG Banshee. Very good overall and works a lot better in most cases.

[foggy needle]

lady death also falls off for heroic +. Best SMGs are banshee, MPX and mp5 for tech laser

[stuck frigate]

Glad that I picked one up. And which talent for CMMG specific? I'm on the CHD CHC side, and I like to be close.

[dim crag]

Fast Hands or Strained are the best talents

[stuck frigate]

I'll play around with some talents, obviously.

Right. Time to have some testing then 😄 Thank you all

[lime night]

Can we craft banshee?

[foggy needle]

It depends on the build and playstyle but SMGs best dps talents are: Flatline, Strained, Sadist, In Sync, Fast Hands,

[stuck frigate]

Yes 😄

[foggy needle]

i dont remember, check the crafting table

[stuck frigate]

I got the BP for CMMG

[narrow matrix]

@foggy needle thoughts on mp7

[foggy needle]

similar to vector so meh

[narrow matrix]

elaborate 👁️

dont say mag size

[foggy needle]

mag size 🤣

[narrow matrix]

nerd

[foggy needle]

but tldr: its a high dps but low mag dumb smg, so falls off for heroic

[inner tendon]

If it was classified as an auto-pistol, it would be perfectly at home.

[narrow matrix]

thoughts on converted smg 9

[inner tendon]

Pretty much that.
It also kinda sucks.

[narrow matrix]

thoughts on ump and that police one that has a an rpm of 550 ... (dont say burst damage)

i liked ump in world tier 1 and 2

[foggy needle]

burst 😛

[narrow matrix]

😭

[mortal dagger]

Do you play in HDR? Does this happen in any other game or application featuring dark places (even YouTube videos)? I ask because I only get crushed blacks in old games (Dragon's Dogma being one with major crushed blacks) and never in modern games and I don't have HDR. Very peculiar that someone get's crushed blacks in a modern video game O.o

[narrow kraken]

Anyone know where I can find roach

[narrow matrix]

Bank headquarters

[narrow kraken]

Fount him nvm was trying to find the mission

[zealous ether]

no

[zealous ether]

and no x2

[foggy needle]

Question, can anyone post here or send me the SC of the new scope on Sacrum Imperium (need to update the spreadsheet)

[zealous ether]

how exactly do u want it screenshot

[foggy needle]

picture of the scope mod's stats

like open up the mod screen for the gun, select scope, take screen shot showing stats of it

[zealous ether]

take ur pick

[narrow matrix]

Damage to head 😱

[foggy needle]

perfect, thank you H Faye

[zealous ether]

Gotchu xD

Anyway, does anyone have a solution on how to unlock the pentagon safehouse now that its been 'unbugged' , if we include the players who have manually 'unbricked' darpa mission before the fix?

(doors are open on both)

[foggy needle]

not sure, but maybe try redoing the mission that unlocks it on story mode? (ie the 1st pentagon mission)

[zealous ether]

i cant access that mission

That mission is called Pentagon Breach, and is only available the first time u visit the pentagon

it leads u to said safe house where one is supposed to unlock it after opening a hatch

[foggy needle]

not sure then, maybe there is a floating mission menu for pentagon breach (at were you normally start for it) ?? otherwise i got nothing

[zealous ether]

before patch when i did it it still didnt unlock the safe house permanently ,so some thing may have changed since the patch

np

[narrow matrix]

Pentagon breach is outside bounds of the safe house isn’t it

[zealous ether]

ye

[narrow matrix]

U have to climb over a truck or something and that spawn is inaccessible

[foggy needle]

i did it so long ago, dont remember lol

[zealous ether]

can someone make a new character then real quick

I think the reason why it wont unlock even after unlocking, is because it can only happen in other guys session, and in my own session there is no such thing

Hence still bricked i believe -_-

[narrow matrix]

I mean the safe house isn’t that important 🥲

[zealous ether]

ITS BUGGING ME

[narrow matrix]

Debug it

[zealous ether]

wish i could

Does one gain more proficiency xp on higher diffs?

[sudden lark]

hey guys I'm just coming back to divison 2 after a while I heard about the raid exotics being in the dz now? is it true?

[zealous ether]

the ravenous and EB ye, idk about the rest

[inner tendon]

Ravenous and Eagle Bearer have been added to the loot pool.
Regulus has not.

[sudden lark]

😮 sweet

[inner tendon]

Note: the chances are seemingly very small. The Raids will most likely still be faster.

[sudden lark]

also anything cool going on in the game? 😄

[inner tendon]

new Manhunts, we're closing in on a new game mode called "Descent".
Going to have the Resident Evil Apparel Event on fairly soon.

[sudden lark]

omg that sounds amazing

[zealous ether]

Sus game

[nimble spruce]

Nope, kill xp remains the same (although higher diffs can have more elites, and they give more xp). You escaped the ban wave then?

[zealous ether]

I was never banned

[narrow kraken]

@zealous ether l why would u say that

[zealous ether]

why would i say what?

[narrow kraken]

That u used an xp glitch

[zealous ether]

why wouldnt i?

[narrow kraken]

Duuh so u don't get caught

[zealous ether]

This ur first time playing div2?

[narrow kraken]

I played div1 a lot of times

Just barely got to World tier 5

Lvl 30 😎

[zealous ether]

That wasnt the point of my question but ok

[narrow kraken]

What a good specialisation thing

Rn I use the sniper

[zealous ether]

what ever suits ur playstyle

[narrow kraken]

Which is which

[zealous ether]

Why are u asking me that?

[narrow kraken]

U play a lot ?

[zealous ether]

i dont play instead of you

[narrow kraken]

?

[zealous ether]

.

[zealous ether]

.

[narrow kraken]

But I'm asking like which is for which playstyle

[zealous ether]

firewall/gunner for run and gun(dps), survivalist for support, demo for for explosive skill builds, sharpshooter for sniping

[inner tendon]

Think of them as working around their bonuses.
e.g. Firewall is best for CQC (close range) due to its Shield and buffs around it.

[thorn hedge]

firewall shield pairs well with 4r+2b

[narrow kraken]

Can u speak in none alien talk for me like

[inner tendon]

Technician is great for Skills and the Flatline gun talent.
Sharpshooter for that bonus HSD (headshots)
Gunner gives you bonus ammo and armour on kill.
etc, etc.

[narrow kraken]

Is r mean red

[thorn hedge]

yes

[narrow kraken]

Ooh so that what they r

🤣 man been stacking points for em never really thought it was useful 🤣

[inner tendon]

hey Zyper, try typing things out fully. It can help avoid a lot of confusion.

[narrow kraken]

Nice to know 🤣

@inner tendon I did he didn't understand lol

[thorn hedge]

Are you talking about me or

[inner tendon]

We're both women.
and it was fairly confusing to read what you wrote. If English isn't your first language, try thinking about what it is you are trying to say and making it clear.

Even us native speakers have to do it sometimes :p

[thorn hedge]

English is difficult but can be understood with tough thorough thought though

[zealous ether]

Why isnt ceska chest craftable?

[thorn hedge]

Because there's no blueprint for it?

[zealous ether]

That what im asking

[thorn hedge]

There's not a crafting blueprint for every piece

[zealous ether]

madge

[inner tendon]

If you are trying to craft one to actually use, I'd drop that idea.
The stat %'s are awful on crafted gear.

[thorn hedge]

I normally craft to get the rolls then optimize

[inner tendon]

The only time I've ever kept crafted gear is my Yaahl pieces, when the BoO vendor sold them that one time.

[fallow inlet]

Hey Kettle

[nimble spruce]

hey Saph

[karmic fern]

any advice on where to burn BT mobs fast?

[hazy belfry]

do you guys think when the new division game drops divisoin 2 is gonna die?

[versed pumice]

Invaded missions/ dz

[stuck frigate]

If I'm only looking for brand gear sets to deconstruct to farm titanium, is it a better option to run summit on lower difficulty so I can kill/farm faster? because afaik targeted loot only depents on directives in summit?

[versed pumice]

Countdown

[stuck frigate]

Still interested whether brand sets/targeted loot drop more often when playing lower dif summit, if anyone knows

[versed pumice]

Higher is better

Run challenging and above and max directives u can handle

[stuck frigate]

Thanks for the clarification 🙂

[wary spoke]

Does Hunters Fury really amplify skill damage?

[narrow kraken]

Never knew that

[foggy needle]

it does not, only buffs gun damage

[wary spoke]

Thank you for clarifying! Just watched a CC video on the Tube that claimed it does, but I knew better than to trust it so I asked here.

[foggy needle]

lol 👍

[terse vapor]

Is using a Healer build and playing the healer role beneficial to my team for endgame content such as Challenging/Heroic Countdown? Or should I be using DPS builds for content like that?

[cedar yacht]

Its really nice to have not necessary to beat it. So if you see no1 as a healer in the team then feel free to swap to it.

[hazy belfry]

you can get bighorn on legendary summit boss floors irght

[fresh vault]

Right.

It will drop very often, more than any other exotic you put on target loot. It just drops like that.

[fresh vault]

It's very useful, specially in long drawn out battles of attrition (Looking at you final boss of Tidal Basin legendary). Being able to bring more than just healing is even better with things like Future Initiative, Scorpio Shotgun, Perfect Sledgehammer, Opportunist and increase their DPS as well.

The more players in your party the more you'll shine as a support.

Being able to sustain against countless drones, grenades, etc. etc. is invaluable.

Not mandatory though.

[radiant pike]

has anyone had issue with your loadouts being delited

[stiff crypt]

@fresh vault I cleared the summit 1-100 on legendary and didn’t see one bighorn. Is there any other way to get it besides legendary summit/strongholds ?

Group clear not solo…does it have to be solo @fresh vault ?

[narrow kraken]

Sadlt there isnt only on legendary u can get it

I dont think even exotic crates drop it

[stiff crypt]

😢 thanks

[fresh vault]

No, you're just the most unlucky person in the planet.

I don't think I could run Floor 10 right now 10 times and not drop at least one Big Horn. 😂

[stiff crypt]

Is that the easier method. Summit was very boring I guess I should just do floor 10 then.

[fresh vault]

I, my cousins and lots of clan members who we roll with often all have dropped countless Big Horns, dozens and dozens.

Just repeat floor 10, kill boss, leave before you kill the last guy.

[stiff crypt]

Not in a rush to get it but sad to have to chase exotics like this. I’ve got to run the IH a few more time to get materials for Regulus and pray for a Ravenous drop.

[stiff crypt]

Thanks I’ll do that

[fresh vault]

Don't worry it'll drop fast.

[oak tulip]

hey, i cant create a new agent, the button promt is missing. does anyone know why?

[narrow kraken]

Dont u have full?

Like max agents

[oak tulip]

no i only have one

i cant delete it, cant create a new one or switch to a new one

[narrow kraken]

U press c and there should be option

[oak tulip]

i canot press c

if i do nothing happens

the buttonpromt create new agent is missing

[fresh vault]

What's the best talents for banshee?

[narrow matrix]

I like unwavering, but fast hands is exceptional since rpm is high

[quasi niche]

Fast hands yeh

[fresh vault]

So Optimist trash?

This just dropped and I feel like it's just... mocking me

[zealous ether]

i mean itll work

[fresh vault]

I was wondering if it would be decent after I switch swap speed to DTOc

[median hemlock]

I don't think optimist is rly that bad on an smg. you could reroll it, but if you really want to get rid of that swap speed then it's not the worst thing in the world. SMG empties its ammo pretty quick, so you'll be getting to that dangerous bottom part of the mag faster

[versed pumice]

It’s good if ur mag dumping and using high rpm weapons

[median hemlock]

honestly i would say swap the talent for something and live with the swap speed until you find another one with a better native roll to replace it.

[thorny swallow]

DTOOC is better than any SMG talent

and optimist is okay

so roll off swap speed imo

[versed pumice]

Banshee does have what 900 rpm so it’s the same as running a famas

[lavish fox]

as a new player should i do all side missions or just main story

[cunning cosmos]

idk where to put this but i thought i saw somewhere that they fixed crashing somewhat?

[fresh vault]

What's the go to D50 talent?

[quasi niche]

1035 ...so actually quite fast

Ofc not like vector but still

[foggy needle]

1035 is with strikers

[stoic bear]

Heartland is going to suck… another battle royal

So tired of the battle royal games

[zealous ether]

me for once looking forward to it

[zealous ether]

depends on ur use case

[heady lake]

It looks to be more like a survival extraction than a BR but then it has multiple modes last time it was leaked

[stoic bear]

And a mobile game….. why don’t they just fix D2.

[wraith flare]

these are all seperate dev teams

[stoic bear]

It’s a wast of time and money

[heady lake]

Different markets and audiences

[wraith flare]

considering div as a franchise was going to be pretty much dead around 1-2 years ago I don't think ubisoft thinks the same

[heady lake]

Give me a Division VR and I will buy it 😄

[wraith flare]

I would buy that

[stoic bear]

So the div 2 community wants a mobile game more than fixing div 2????

[wraith flare]

cover shooter in vr yes please!

again they are seperate dev teams not connected to div 2

heartland being red storm & I don't think we know who's working on resurgence

[stoic bear]

You can say different all you want… ubi still take the time money and resources to found these garbage

[wraith flare]

because they view it as a worth while investment to have more division games made

[stoic bear]

The % of people who want a battle royal game and a mobile game is so very small to the actual community

[heady lake]

mobile is just an emerging market just like Steam deck and Linux users are now finally happy when the game was released on Steam.

[stoic bear]

So was google stadia and we see how that ended up

[heady lake]

GeForce Now is still doing well

[wraith flare]

xcloud geforce now & amazon luna are still around along with others

stadia is a great case of bad marketing

[stoic bear]

Not pulling nearly as many number as Xbox ps and pc

I just don’t understand how companies just shoot their self in the foot with trying to make new shit, when they already have a working game.

[wraith flare]

because things can get stale we wouldn't still want to playing only doom would we

[stoic bear]

Maybe because I’m old I grew up in a time where games where done right the first time… no political bullshit involved. No day one patches.

That was my rant. I have so many hours in this damn game I just want shot to be fixed and work right

It’s frustrating

[heady lake]

because the technology is still volatile and being innovated. Not easy for people to give up the heritage that consoles bring. Plus cultures are changing, society is advancing and new emerging markets are rising. For example I foresee streaming tech being used in Teslas and automobiles of the future

https://www.engadget.com/nvidia-geforce-now-game-streaming-in-cars-164511641.html

Well I guess its already happening 😄

[zealous ether]

How do i know which one im missing? When i go to progress, everything is ticked, and yet im still missing: Bounties, recal station, barber etc in campus

[cinder escarp]

Anyone getting error message, ubisoft service is currently unavailable? Havent been able to sign in at all today.

[stoic bear]

We’ll stuck on double loading screen again for countdown…. Fix one thing break another

[distant walrus]

Tf did they even fix? Lol

[gentle marten]

nerfing anything that gives you xp

[wraith flare]

they're looking into it so it might be unintended

[cunning cosmos]

if u wait like 1 minute it normally fixes for me

[heavy lake]

can anyone help me get the nemesis sniper?

[sleek shadow]

is there any benefit to doing countdown on heroic?

[fathom spruce]

more currency gained and the loot has (a fair bit) higher rolls on average

[snow quartz]

any way I can fix this bug, I have ocd so the fact that the max rolled armor is not highlighted is a bit of a pain to look at.

[lavish fox]

so since i can join clans now is it worth joining one to make friends or am i still too low being lvl 9?

[tidal lark]

So is there any difference between the famas 2010 an the famas 2010 replica or is it just a name change

[lime night]

name only

[crude quiver]

Is that level 9 story or shd 9? Either way you can join a clan, but may not be able to join other players if not level 40 (completed NYC DLC)

[vast mesa]

what to do with extra exotics?

[inner tendon]

Exotic components are needed for late game upgrades (Expertise system), so after you have as many copies of one as you want, might be time to turn on the industrial exotic shredder.

[vast mesa]

thanks rivens

[lavish fox]

im new so level 9 hahaha

[inner tendon]

Don't worry about pretty much anything yet. Join a clan if you want, there's no downside to just leaving and joining a bigger one later.
You can only join one once you've unlocked the NPC for it, which is via a side mission IIRC.

[lavish fox]

im currently level 11 and kinda overwhelmed but trying to take it slow and doing all the side missions

are there not like class skills in this one

or like speicializations?

[inner tendon]

There is, but you need to reach Lvl 30 first.

[lavish fox]

pain hahahah

[inner tendon]

It's best to think of everything before that as a tutorial of sorts.

[lavish fox]

gotcha

also

should i be dismantling or selling

[cedar yacht]

sell

[lavish fox]

i hate myself but thanks i figure

figured

final question is what skills you think are best im kinda at a lost

i use seeker mine and the drone

[cedar yacht]

Those are good

[lavish fox]

does pulse not increase dmg towards enemies anymore

or was that the first game too

[inner tendon]

It's best to just try out everything during the 1-30 levelling process.
It's your time to mess around with new stuff.

[cedar yacht]

Its a whole mechanic involved for that until you reach late game.

[fathom spruce]

just saw this, pretty sure that's because it's not max rolled
max is 170 001
at least that's all my max extracted/optimised armour in library

It's a bit weird, not 100% what's up with it
Sometimes I see 170k flat as maxed but then in library I see it with 1 more, perhaps weird rounding

Try optimising it perhaps? Maybe it's missing like a minuscule amount that's rounded and acting up there
Took a random chest and optimised armour real quick to test and it shows like this:

[snow quartz]

i tired its says its maxed

cant be surprised at this point

[opaque moss]

is there like a guaranteed area to find rouge agents

kinda tired of waiting for RNG to give me two of them

[gusty shoal]

morozova broke, this happened when we switched over to raid via party leader swap

[stoic bear]

Well they broke a bunch of shit with this update. The convoys where nerfed

Again

[fresh vault]

Nerfed how? XP wise?

[fresh vault]

Randomly on summit or spamming heroic cps is your best bet

[west hearth]

every third floor on summit has a % idk how big

[coral solar]

any way to find an IH raid party? Seems impossible nowadays

[wraith flare]

#lfg-raid-pc

[inner tendon]

Rogue Agents are found on any Summit floor that's not a boss room, and has a closed door at the exit.
If it satisfies the criteria, you have a chance to get Rogues replacing an encounter.

[verbal bloom]

Hello, I'm a new player, I just want to ask if the game is still good and if many people play it?

[heady lake]

Hello game good. Don't listen to player who say no. They are grumpy middle aged men who only have 1 game in their library. Also developers have stream tomorrow for year 5 road map so game still getting content. Hopefully you like this genre but only you can decide

[hazy belfry]

definitely if you like this type of game

even if you just wanna play the story and not bother with late game stuff if you have some friends it can be a ton of fun

[verbal bloom]

I love MMO RPG

[teal sorrel]

What does the season pass have? I can’t find a way to inspect it

[inner tendon]

Season Pass has 2 separate "tiers".
top one has all the actual content in it. Manhunt unlocks, new Exotics, named items, gear, etc, etc. It is 100% free (and only accessible) if you own WONY.
the lower one is mostly just cosmetic, some caches, and a few apparel keys. It costs money.

[teal sorrel]

That’s great, I did get the DLC with the game, thanks

[storm river]

Only first game

[narrow kraken]

Question, am I not able to get Catharsis as a drop because I didn't get it in season 9? I've been farming for 2 weeks straight for masks and I've only gotten Vile like 20 times.

[inner tendon]

Once a Season is over, the Exotics get added to the general loot pool.

e.g. Coyotes, Catharsis, etc.

[quasi niche]

As far as I know no... got told at least by multiple people that its not in the world pool ... i also farmed many hours for it 😭

[narrow kraken]

I see. Thanks. Sure doesn't feel like it. I've spent at least 40 hours farming for it now and the only exotic mask I get is Vile.

[inner tendon]

What is your farming method that you've been using?

[narrow kraken]

Mostly countdown so I can also buy exotic caches too to try to get it. But if I get a mask it's always Vile. Also Summit a bit and wherever else there's mask targeted loot just to change things up.

[thorn hedge]

catharsis is bugged to be locked at exotic caches atm if you dont have the reconfiguration blueprint

[narrow kraken]

I'm not surprised. Knowing how they are with bugs unless it benefits the player, it will be a long time before it's fixed

[thorn hedge]

no its just not a crucial bug that needs immediate action

[cedar schooner]

I got my catharsis from a countdown cache about a little less than a week ago, but no Vile 😦 good luck

[narrow kraken]

I'd gladly give you one of the 20 I've gotten lol

[hazy belfry]

i have the same experience with vile and catharsis lol

i deconstructed like 5 alread

btw where do you guys farm gear mods im trying to get some maxed out ones

[tulip fiber]

Countdown or Summit, target mods

[narrow kraken]

is there any way to turn off that goofy crosshair ?

[storm river]

No, and third party crosshair programs are bannable

[turbid igloo]

Is scorpion good? I Just recently got it

[foggy needle]

yes its bonkers strong, one of the strongest weapons in the game

[narrow kraken]

how come is something bannable if they cant make evn good pistol cross

[narrow kraken]

One of the best exotics imo. Locks down hunters and bosses and annoying enemies like no other weapon.

[turbid igloo]

It's good against hunters????

[narrow kraken]

yup

[turbid igloo]

Is doctor Lair good or meh

Talking about hunters some Hunter appeared here

Idk where is him

I'm shitting myself 👍

FOUND HIM

[thorn hedge]

Doctor home isn't that good

[turbid igloo]

IT'S A STALKING ONE
