thats not connected with irl timing right?
My first attempt I arrived at exactly 11:53 and they didn't spawn.
One day later and 15 minutes earlier and it worked.
ingame time.
damn thats tuff
@stray spruce correct game time moves faster
For future reference: 21:00 ingame is considered "night", and 05:00 is "morning".
You'll need that if you want to do the Hunter puzzles.
so i should be there at 11 in the morning and just wait there
sorry if i sound dumb
Be real close and wander in at 1130
It's possible to be too early, I'd try some time between 11:00 and 11:30.
It's not a dumb question, but don't worry about looking stupid anyway. We all started off as newbies.
Yup
and this goes for all of the three cps right
something like that
still working on build
ill make sure i play during times when ur not on
if u find where i said i cant play whatsoever or at all ill delete this game lol
if u remember i said the timings are ass
and things come up and i cant play
i have work tomorrow at 6 but i wanna finish these three cps really quick
Is my "Enforcer" bugged or is it not supposed to have an attribute roll? Mine only has 2 core attributes, but not a "normal" attribute 🤔
Makes "Tsunami" seem like a better alternative since I can roll DTOC on it for 3rd attribute
hi I just returned playing the division 2 my I ask if I can farm the eagle bearer on different areas of the game? or still just in the raid?
dz now and raid
I don't have it, but I'd really like to try a shield build with Regulus
I only have the Rav I like it. I see lots of people like using the EB but on paper don’t look that good imo
I wanna try the regulus too but idk how good it is until I try it
of all the raid exotics, only the regulus is worth getting
the irony of ravenous being a raid exotic is only really worth using in raids, not that it's bad for general use but it's clunky for general use
I think it's always been like that (don't have one myself so can't say for sure) - it's still a better option than tsunami due to the higher base damage though.
It's weird, I looked at some youtube footage and other people do have an attribute on it Nvm I'm stupid, the guy had an Enforcer but was hovering over the Tsunami 😄
I dislike the EB tbh, i find the carbine 7 much more reliable
Eb has a rather large kickback
EB is the gun I'm working towards
I say working towards.. The gun I haven't found yet 😂
Enforcer deals around 10% more damage per shot all things considered, but Tsunami has a Magazine instead of single shell feed 🤔 Just gotta try it in the open I guess
The point of pummel is you don't have to worry about reloads. M870 with regular pummel is also a popular choice in the 'headhunters fury' crowd
And the tsunami often can’t kill in one mag from the experience of a few friends, meaning it can’t reload
When I bought ultimate edition on pc recently I got an enforcer shotgun
Does anyone have any good resources for what I should be doing once I've hit 40 and finished the story ect?
There's a spreadsheet pinned in #td2-build-advice with gear details and some good builds, I would look through them and start farming for what you like the look of. You'll also want to start levelling your specialisations and filling your recalibration table
Yeah I've already got a build or so going and I'm dumping everything into recalibration
Work your way up through the difficulties, do daily & weekly projects and the manhunt to get a feel for the game, try a variety of activities (countdown, summit, open world etc)
So pretty much just do whatever then?
Yeah, if you like a challenge then you'll want to work towards builds good enough for legendary strongholds and raids
You pretty much have to set your own goals in the endgame though
There are achievement-like 'commendations' you can earn too, hidden away in the progression menu with all the collectibles and stuff
Alright Ill give it a peak and see what sort of build I should focus on getting to enable content then, thanks
try to understand how everything works first fiddle around and put toegther what u think is best
dont go straight to copying things because then you wont really understand anything once u fully understand everything then try other builds
i copied youtuber builds at first but then i never relaly understood the game plus those builds are out dated now so i spent my time understanding and i am still learning
@nimble spruce should i go defender drone + crusader or crusader + revive hive
Umm, depends on context but assuming pve you probably want shield and hive, defender drone is mostly used pvp
Guys how do i deactivate the turret in stovepipes manhunt?
Shoot the power boxes
I cant find the boxes and the map is so dark glitchy omg
And the turrets are shooting and drones this is a real mess
They're there check corners and stuff
Aight thx
Holy, i actually managed to do it
Nice
follow the cables
gets shot
gets gangbanged by a bunch of drones
Gets firebombed
ask yourself why you already dont have jammer equipped knowing all you encounter are mechs and tech
Bc nerds like revive hive
I mean right after that you get molested by a mobile flamethrower
I did it in a group of 3
That pos is immune to jammer?
Gotta hang in there
Not completely but virtually
Manhunt may as well have its own difficulty, your first playthrough on normal will be just as difficult as solo heroic
Heh i dont get it... Stovepipe side mission( return to white house ) objective failed when all cut scenes where done??? what did i wrong O_o ?
hey,ppl,last manhunt mission is bugged,says objective failed,anyone managed to walkaround?
It’s like when ya play story for the first time, also manhunts are way more aggressive
Apparently u were supposed to skip last cutscene
Bugged atm
how can u skip last cutscene?
yeah i tried to press F and didnt work,couldnt skip
so u cant get the unique -.-
I've done it 5 times and I can skip once they go to the safe room but it always says objective failed
Are they eventually gonna consider playtesting what they create?
Idk but my game is now broken and I can't use the white house until it's fixed
even it says u got the unique armor item, i did not recieve it? did any ???
y it will prolly got wwwwwwwwwwwwweeeeeeeeeeeeeks before this get fixed -.-
You need to finish the broken mission to get it
Just tried to join a friend, even locks you out of it, Ubisoft trying to get rid of players?
Dose anyone have issues with last manhunt mission it keep saying failed and back to the start even tho i have done everything
We all do
I hope it gets hot fixed asap
Yeah, everyone has it, just reset the manhunt, the amount of hazzle is not worth a cosmetic.
True true but I don't want to do the stovepipe mission again
Then you likely have to wait a good chunk of time for them to actually do something.
they never do "Hot fixes" ..
That's true
I don't really play much I only do when I feel like wasting most of my day Grinding on heroic with 3 directives with random people
If you got buddies, and they fix it within this century, you could run it with them, maybe even during golden bullet, you pretty much just skip the thing, or you replay the manhunt but avoid the stovepipe, but yeah, resetting manhunt does fix it for everyone that comes in later on with the issue.
Yeah true that but honestly I shouldn't have to rest all of my work so I can wait for it to be fixed
Don't release something that don't work
They will, there ain't no playtesting commencing, it's all rushed, issues are put under the carpet, don't expect things to change.
Well hopefully something happens soon and why not get the community to play test stuff or get staff
That would also take time, which is irrelevant, rush it, push it, play it, a old saying from previous communities.
Yeah true that true that
I mean they have the PTS but that's a lil different I guess
I was in such a good mood I got a new Exotic that I've never seen before then 10 min later my game is broke
Which one was it
That's for ages down the track
Can't wait for the exotic m4 tho
It starts with A D I don't remember the name
It's a dmr and it shoots 2 times when you pull the trigger and let go
Ohh merciless
If it makes you feel any better it's a very niche weapon
Makes for a nice trophy on the firing range wall tho
It is but I have a pesty build
I need to make it better tho because at 50 stacks it's 1 million a tick but I think I could get it better
Anyone else got "objective failed" on completion of the mission after the video?
We all do
Got it. Great
There is some work around but it's too late for me to try
im so pissed right now, i did not complete the fire doggo on heroic just to come to a mission failed
after 20+ tries
How'd you fail after killing it
Wait if you fail the side mission it resets the main?
so now im stuck at a loop and i cant fast travel or do anything?
Ah I see
Do u use it during hunters in countdown
Skip the 2nd cutscene as soon as possible
i tried
Last time i used i Learned to never do it
Again
Try inching toward the mission marker and dodge roll backward
Skill tier 6 striker drones and stinger hives getting hacked are so annoying
When Black tusk main operation base raid
No new Raids are planned, as far as we know right now.
There's a cleaner focused Incursion (kinda like a mini raid) coming in Year 5.
They're bringing back incursions?
Aye, was shown off in the last big stream. Details are in the usual places.
It's a big house, or manor I guess. IDK the name.
ait this worked thanks
Oh cool
Well they broke the reload on the game…. I should not be at 2.1 reload speed with a famas. Shd level 3398, striker set it was at 1.9
Yeah everyone learns that lesson eventually lol
Last time i did i regretted everything
Specifically: most deployable skills can be hacked by Hunters.
I was with drone turret or drone seeker
I got explode and shot
Yeah they can't rob your shield or pulse or anything
Exploded
They can jam them though
I would pay to see Hunters be able to turn our shields on us in a future expansion.
Firewall shield cone being reversed. Imagine it.
too all of you who stuck with the manhunt last part, spam the cutscene button , hold F for PC in the last echo part, especially at Echo which lewis got killed by hunter
Have it retract and break our arms lmao
Ow
Just deploy like normal, but only a few cm across.
Tiny Shield new skill.
Ooh new hat idea.
Smol shield
I don't think it Will happen
Obviously not
Because agents know how to guard an shield
But only if it's paired with the Giant Striker Drone from the DARPA labs.
I don't think they would not expect their shield retract for no reason
I'm imagining a comically large decoy rn
Regular decoy, but it's an outcast rusher that explodes.
This started as a joke, but I actually want this as a GE now.
Fr
Funky skills
Firefly, but it just misses and flies off like Team Rocket.
Imagine if there was a decoy that melee enemies would come
And attack it
Drone but he can accelarate really fast
Deflector bulwark shield
TD1 nightmare
There are all too useful.
It has to be funny but pointless.
TD1 pvp shields are way too OP
Hmm
Like oxidiser, but it just shoots out party streamers.
Sticky bomb except it doesn't stick
Special effects: exiled party 😄
Whipped Cream foam grenade.
I hate when it changes the : D to a emoji
Revive hive which deploys when downed but doesn't actually do anything
With concrete and bacteria flavor
I mean it gets on the ground
Assault Turret, but it just has a flag that pops out the end with the word "bang" on it.
Joker moment
Mortar but when it lands it just goes "poof"
That actually happened in 2020
If i'm right
Was it broken at some point
Yes
Morning Rivens
The last manhunt mission is kinda bugged for me… everytime I retake the White House it tells me „mission failed“ right after the cutscene. When I try to enter the White House after that it takes be straight back into the mission I just played. Anyone has that problem aswell?
Known issue
@mellow trout talking about revive hive should i use shield + defender drone or shield + revive hive
Unless it's pvp
Revive drone should exist
It would take time to revive the player tho
Unlike revive hive
Drone could also be tho
Revive duo
But as a nerf it would have the same time as defender
It'd be broken having 2 self revives on seperate cooldowns
There would also be a nerf where you can't have 2 revive skills
Checkmate for the devs
lol
whats the 4gb update?
Nothing really
keep getting objective failed on the whitehouse mission (after killing the razorback), the mission you get after finishing the manhunt final boss mission.
WHAT TO DO ?
the mission just restarts
skip second cutscene ASAP, it's a known issue....
will try
today I got the exotic lady death in DZ south. which is targeted loot for vests. so exotics do not always drop as targeted loot. just an FYI
In the open world no matter what the target loot is I always somehow manage to get a dumb amount of bluescreens to drop
Is it worth doing Expeditions as a fresh 30? Apparently there is a reward for doing them all the first time, wondering if I should wait till I am done with WT5 + WONY
tried skipping cutscene, the entire mission still restarted
worked for me
Skipping worked for me after going into the BOO and watching the first part for the 3rd time. Thanks for the tip. I don't think I could handle watching all of that one more time.
I see the RE apparel cache event has been extended, but the keys are not dropping anymore,
I'll deal with it later.
Anyways, tell me about Stovepipe's chestplate
anyone else getting event keys ?
What sub does everyone prefer and what talents work best for them tia
i got some but i cant remember how
today ? after the maintenance?
the event was supposed to end today, but they extended the event to 1 more week, but after the maintenance, event apparel keys are not dropping,
during a level up notification, it used to tell us how many more levels you need to reach for getting an event key, but that message also stopped showing.
Can someone tell this else you will lose all your raid exotics by tonight 🤓
What the fuck
I keep getting missions failed
What the fuck is wrong with this shit game
How do you all just accept this bullshit
Bugs
The last week of apparel event doesnt drop key. Its always been like that.
Because despite the bugs it’s still pretty good. Get tilted somewhere else
Maybe you are not a good agent 😔
You can for fun but not really
Nothing to get if you don’t do all 3 (loot is bad) finishing the missions takes hella long and some have requirements such as use of explosives
Is the manhunt glitched?
you only clear it once just for the exotic no?
I did it in WT1 spent a few days on the student hall portion bc it was hard without the right gear
its not that hard
All 3 missions with different objectives that are like side missions
known glitch, workaround is to skip the second half of the final cutscene (just after you finish watching the echos)
At level 30 (world tier 1 and I’m guessing 5) it is
You all much be down bad to defend a game you constantly pay money for that is always broken… must pay for only fans too
You don’t have specializations leveled likely and no good gear bc gearscore / no targeted loot
Didn't work for me
constantly pay money for? I think I've bought like...one season pass ever since buying original game and WONY. With hundreds of hours put it, feels like a good deal (despite the constant bugs)
hows the pc playerbase? is the dark zone popular at all? it was my favourite part of div1
paid like $20 for ultimate edition....think I got my money's worth. haha
Its still active
well I just got the ol wony edition and gonna play through that and then hopefully get some good dz going
Bro is in for a wild ride. Whos gonna tell him😭🤣
Don't. You have to experience it first hand.
still a shame they removed the dz exploration missions
did a fair bit o reading i hear its a bit of a mess
How to allocate SHD for sniper ? Cant see any text about it on Tip or the other buildguide .
I just got this from doing the daily, will the other patches too? I just realized that this is how you get those patches
Or am i too late to get the other patches
Watch points? I guess hsd and weapon damage first, but honestly the crit chance bonus is worth more in a bigger variety of builds
ye sorry, watch points. Got 61 unspeant in all 4 corners ^^.
I'd just follow the usual recommended route, sniper doesn't really need any special treatment. HSD before crit damage, maybe, but that's all. You'll end up with everything max anyway
oh didnt know would fill out all with time ^^. Thank you very much 🙂
does anyone know why when i complete a bounty it doesn’t count towards the manhunt? i’ve completed like 5 - 6 bounties and none of them have counted towards my manhunt progression making it impossible for me to take down any of the lt’s
i’m unsure if it’s a certain bounty i need to pick up but it doesn’t specify
you have to do the man hunt bounties (the yellow ones)
where do i find those?
same area as the other yellow objectives
are they marked on the map or is it a random encounter?
they've got a yellow icon on the bounty menu
ah i see now, appreciate it
is it supposed to be this blinding and worse ?
fog in the summit? Yeah that's pretty standard.
just making sure, some floors are so white i cant see shit xD
i think they want me to go after true sons in constitution hall...
someone kicked up the dust on the floor
So is an expedition just bonus content? Shouldn't focus it over my invasions for points or countdown gear farming while I'm still trying to get my build working?
correct, the expedition used to have an exclusive exotic (diamondback) but that's now in the general loot pool - and isn't particularly strong anyway. Just play it for the experience
Try neutral lighting …
Turn it off and on they use too much artificial lighting
In summit
I have to do this so damn often it's wild.
When I walk into a dark area I can't see thrrr feet infront of me, but then I'm turned toward a light source and I'm blinded
Then I fast travel and it's daytime and oops I'm turned toward the sun so NO SIGHT FOR ME
Bro I just wanna see what I'm shooting at without having to tag/pulse enemies jeeez
The lighting at night in the streets is so blinding I either get disoriented or end up dying cause I can’t see shit lol
I turned on hdr and lowered brightness
Set tv to game mode… ever since I notice an improvement
But man… I try to shoot those lights out and no dice
MAN, SAME
Me: okay I'll just shoot this damn light out
54 bullets later
Me: now it's fucking blinking. Great
Had to stop playing summit cause either it was too dark or too bright
Also the emp floors constantly got annoying
Has anyone been doing the resource convoy xp farm today? I'm getting a problem where after doing so many they stop spawning for like 30-40mins. I joined my friend and it's the same for them. We've reset all the control points too...
It's a good exp farm? I might have to do it... cuz I just started/hit watch levels this week
Anyone know how to get the Div 2 bot in my server?!
ISAC is a fictional AI, he's not real
You wouldn't say?! 🤔... It's in another one of my friends servers. Trying to get it in mine .
you mean the news feed thing? I guess just go in #news-and-announcements and click the link at the bottom?
Or you can probably get any discord bot and just name it 'isac' if that's what you're after
It's an actual Tom Clancy bot that drops the tweets and info for the game.
holy ... I can actually SEE who im shooting at !
Try changing world difficulty
Tried that but doesn't work lol
Oh, yea usually it takes a bit for them to spawn, if it’s at night or early morning they won’t spawn
3pm in game for me. Maybe I just need to give it some time 👍
So this season prime target is just for a chest transmog?
yeah, that's the only reason why anyone does it
cosmetics are the end game confirmed, lol
hunters actually have no faces under their mask - those masks ARE their faces
You see this is why we should just lay down and let the hunter take us. This post right here
Just slam that axe into my skull
can i abort the bugged manhunt mission? tried the whole stutterstep thing and skipping the cutscene twice, still mission failed. but i cant just leave the mission area as it just restarts and cant fast travel out. what to do?
edit: worked on the 4th try...
i’m having the same issue
think you have to run the mission quickly (<4 mins) as well as skip the second half of the final cutscene
i’ve been doing that and it’s not working
i’ll try it again but
yea you have to do it in less than 4 mins jesus
I just got this. Where is my reward? I'm new so i don't know
appearance mod for chest
@nimble spruce oh its decoration?
I can't understand
Yes it’s decoration
@nimble spruce i don't know where is this menu
open chest mod menu, move to appearance slot
do you know how to mod your items (eg add crit damage gear mods or similar)?
yeah, see at the bottom it says the square button is Mod?
Yes
so move your selection to your chest and press square, then you'll see three mod slots - gear mod, dye, and appearance
hey guys im tryna find best settings for D2 in the Config file but cant seem to find any videos or websites that show which i should change Mainly for PVP
@nimble spruce oh thanks you so much for your help. First time i see it. I appreciate your help
no worries
How many intel’s y’all got after stovepipe? Do you have 21/21?
only after running the stovepipe mission a second time
^
Aight thank you Imma rerun it and see where the missing intel drops
I don't know what to reply so sorry. I'm still so confused with this game
do i skip all cutscenes on last manhunt mission as keep getting objective failed
anyone know how i get round it
Run it fast - less than 4 mins - and skip the second half of the final cutscene (as soon as it lets you skip, do so)
Man if it wasn’t for this I would’ve praised this mission to high Heaven
Confirmed the skipping last cutscene works. But need to initiate skip as fast as possible. Ran it 4 times trying to figure this out.
Anyone been getting big lag spikes starting today ?
This enemy during the manhunt main mission has a unique bio. Does anyone know if this was a cut enemy?
no its just a unique enemy lol
Then I’ve got a heck of a conspiracy theory. Since we’re getting more DLC, we’ll need one or more new enemy factions. Consider a spin off of Black Tusk that’s just drones and robots
Lots you could do with it. Maybe a support enemy that protects others from EMPs. The Flamethrower Warhound. An even stronger mechanic, maybe
Or just put in guys from Heartland or Resurgence
As an MMR enjoyer...
No. No god please no. No. No. Noooooo.
I don’t see a new faction being a thing tbh that would mean they’d have to invest into making comms and echoes and a whole plot to fill them in
They have so many plot holes with true sons and black tusk alone
Most of black tusk is open to interpretation
Well i wonder...
As it stands right now tho we have:
BlackTusk + True Sons
Outcasts + Rogue Agents
Hyenas +.... ?
Even more with today's manhunt
Heartland is going to be trash. If you don’t play DZ now, no way in hell you are going to be play heartland. Heartland is a purely DZ, so while your just minding your own business…. Your get jumped
Drugs
So maybe we get 3 mixed bags of existing factions for next dlc
Honestly calling hyenas a faction is a bit of a stretch
They have almost no leadership and are primarily druggies
lol
Was doing my 2nd run auntie manhunt on my 2nd toon. The crash had started very 5-6mins the game will crash!. Anyone having this issue?
My 1st toon have no crash at all while doing auntie manhunt.
how do i start the stove mission
do i need to complete the sidemission first at Coney?
Yea thats what makes me worry i came to div 2 because of its unparalleled pve setting in real world unlike anything in market 😭
Ye
Nooooo you are the only one alone
im doing stovepipe now but so far i ran thru half the mission with no enemies? is that a thing or is it bugged
Statue of liberty gonna be taken out in vanguard 😨
Broken wings looking like sam fisher helping us
Puppeteers look like cleaner or outcast theme
Oh shit that green shd circle
Now that our shd network is down again and we use this mobile fallback one... do we maybe build our own SHD like Keener did? Maybe using ANNA?
I mean with Haven in NY, rhodes and benitz
McManus head of divison already is under the sheets with Sokolov
We maybe form our own division. Green circle div
how well does this game do when playin with friends from across the world? in terms of like lag
extremely well
I'm on USE servers and connecting to australia servers rarely and I cannot tell that I am on a server that far away
That's from descent the mode is a simulation iirc
Season 3 says holiday event so I'm assuming its gonna be here this winter ?
how to fix cutscene?
😦 right
The rogue agent element probably has to do with a cell tied to hornet
The eclipse virus is still the most dangerous weapon that currently exists that black tusk can get their hands on
They wanted tchernenko for a reason
How was the leon rpd outfit delivered?
Since i dont have it? Post box in stash or what?
Does the companion talent work on pulse skill?
How do we get the Black Tusk bounties for the weekly project when none are available from the bounty system?
which audio am i missing? end mission?
Do hostage rescue when its black tusk
did they implement some kind of farm protection?
cuz i was farming about 30 mins ago to do convoys to get my level up and i was able to get 600k plus xp with 5 directives on but now i am only getting 300k
I dont know
U will get faction specific bounties
There was an event that gave double XP for your first 15 shade levels after the update
So for example, outcast hostage rescue = outcast bounty
Yus gotcha, tyvm
were you able to find out what is call and where is at?
I am missing one as well.
to me, im missing "Hypothetical"
but i've seen people that have one missing as well and its one I already have
but i only fetched those in the general path of the last mission, didn't explore nor seeked it ou
in "td2-general-chat" just now, ppl told me to replay the last manhunt mission in easier diff. and should drop a new audio log.
(Don't need to restart the whole manhunt)
ooooh to just replay roosevelt with the last target?
not sure which one you missing. For me I need to do it on coney island
when you say replay roosevelt, you mean "auntie"?
If so, you might need to restart the whole manhunt.
Might want to check with other.
is that directed towards my question or
Yea, probably ran out of the event
is that just like a one time thing
or
Not sure what you mean sry
if you miss an audio log, redo the manhunt and destroy sparkle again, it should drop one you are missing
like that event is it just this one time or is it gonna happen again
no idea
Each time a new manhunt target drops we get double xp during that week, but only for the first 15 levels - so it won't happen again until next season.
will give it a go
@stray spruce that's all it says ingame, don't know anything more, was the first time i've seen such an xp event
whhere do i check that
Escape -> Seasons -> Press F for event details
so they didnt really bring the old convoys back but just added this stupid thing
2x Xp thing always has been a thing. Convoys are being fixed. Calm down
ok buddy boy
They did bring convoys back - compare the xp it says it gives you vs the xp you actually receive (the little green number that appears over the xp bar)
Well there we go. I didnt think theyd patched that already
It was always the case before the nerf that they gave double the xp that they said they did, and that's now true again
ahhh ok it does give u 600k+
this mask is from Outguard ss4 outfit event, do i able to get it if i buy all 4 Outguard outfit in shop ?
Guys did you all get a backpack trophy for stovepipes manhunt? Yesterday i saw someone said he got it but i couldnt find it
this is what you're looking for
it should be near the trex trophy for beating tidal basin
Mhm
Do i have to pick it up? Cause i completed the manhunt but didn't receive it
bro had a heart attack 😭
It goes directly to your cosmetic list when done with the last side mission of the manhunt (listening to recording)
Ait thanks, i will check again when i get back later
Should be the top entry when clicking the Appearance slot on your vest
It's top for me, above any of the high end stuff 
Hey. I'm new player on game almost 20 days but it's hard to understand everything. Anyone that want to add me on PSN to help me if possible after my work?
If want send me here private message please
"Agent deceased"
lmfao, I like doing that in the pentagon safehouse since you can use skills/weapons in there. and it freaks people out to load into a safehouse and see an agent burning to death....
Can the ceska holster drop with crit chance and crit damage together or just one or the other, seem to keep getting one with the second pair always weapon handling
everything can, its just RNG like always
What's that orange icon mean
so, anyone got Stovepipe's Chestplate?
I want to ask what it does.
I don't have one.
it's just an appearance mod for chests
Goddamn he's shd 1.2 k on hc
I've seen I think SHD 14k on a hardcore character.
might be higher now as that was months ago
That or they're dead
well, they could jut remake a character and be right back at shd 14k
since u jump back to w/e shd level u died at once u clear level 40
yeah, only works with the shd levels tho. still gotta do the whole 1-40 run up...
but once u hit 40 you immediately go back to the highest shd level u achieved on HC.
You can't boost on HC?
via the boost options, no. but you can have a higher lvl player help you.
Ahh I see
so they can help speed things up at least
You lose all your loot and have no stash
Oh damn
But shd staying is a big help
Also do HC characters die permanently in CD?
Because I see a lot in CD
Yes but countdown is relatively safe (you can check your teammates builds and abort if things look likely to go sideways) and it's still the best loot farm. Also it's basically the only place where you can play alongside softcore players.
are convoys fixed?
They've reverted back to the bugged state of giving twice the xp they say they do, yes
Patch notes are linked in #division-tweets
they r outdated
Just as it still says that the fix for convoys is 'ready', while it is in fact live.
The 17.3 notes include it as patched
One thing they don't mention is that the end of the manhunt has a hilariously game-breaking bug. Fortunately there's a workaround that works for most people.
yes
and you get an alpha error too
trust me id know 😭
Does warlord edition still come with boost?
yes
Hey Eevee
Anyone know why I'm missing a audio file from this season? I did the entire season and just did the ending but am still missing one, its also undiscovered, are there comms hidden in the manhunt target bounties?
do the stovepipe mission again
I got the one sitting next to stovepipe but do you mean there is another one in the mission I missed?
most of the manhunt mission finales require you to rerun them multiple times to collect all the comms from them
Oh... ok thanks.
There’s a reload speed bug…
Before this damn update my famas had 1.9 speed, now it’s 2.1. All my guns have longer reload now. What the hell is going on
I was just checking the trello and, why is there a issue just titled [Gear] in the in progress tab?
probably just overlooked, were gonna add something then got distracted and forgot about it. the Trello board needs updating soon anyways
Hey .drib
is stovepipe fixed ?
no update has happened yet, so no
Azurmen32 sent u pm for another reason wich i wont tell in here.
So I'm trying to optimize my gear. Generally what's the best way to go about doing that? Optimization menu or farming the gear and hoping for god rolls either on drops or crafting?
farming for a piece that has all the attribute you want near max is nice. if you gotta recal 1 thing to something else that's fine ofcourse but sometimes it's nice to not be forced to do that so you can modify the piece later if you want to change your role/setup. so find a piece with your choice atributes/talents near max then optimize from there.
crafting CAN give you good stuff but imho it's not worth crafting voer and over looking for good rolls when you can farm for the item/gear of choice in open world or in an activity like summit/countdown where you can choose the loot.
I do have all the correct attributes, but most of them are probably at... half or so?
oof, I wouldn't waste optimizing then. def just keep an eye out for a new piece via farming
ideally you'd only want to have to push each attribute a max of 1-3 times to cap it off. even 3 some would call too many times honestly.
that gives me a pretty good metric. Thanks!
cause funny enough you'll spend a week optimizing it, and you'll get a better one drop immediately after (ask me how I know) lol
Revive hive or art hive
Revive if you want an extra life but it’s only active when you go down and has long cooldown
Artificier hive to heal shield and buff skills (skills only on tier 6 skill build really)
Hello. Anyone know where I can find the snitch/Cassie? Or is it random for everyone?
the snitches location is randomized (but limited to his set spawn locations), and cassie will be the same for everyone. you can use this image to see some of his spawn locations: https://i.imgur.com/tByQIQ0.png
cassie will be the same for everyone BUT has to be unlocked for you 1st by the snitch.
ty for clarifying Azurmen. I wanted to add but been so long couldn't remember
Yeah I'm actually using that map for the past 30 minutes. So if she's in foggy bottom he's in one of the 3 locations in foggy bottom?
Because I've been to all three and he wasn't there
no no. what you'll ahve to do is find the snitch via one of his locations. talk to him to get bounty (optional) but then that unlocks the ability to visit cassie at the set location (will shwo on map, same for everyone)
sometimes it helps to go to one of his locations immediately after logging in to game.
cause it's almost a guarantee he'll be there that way.
Ok. Thanks
And do I need to look for him every single time I want to find Cassie?
Ok. Danke
@foggy needle which one should i go on your honest opinion
artificial hive imho
Any advice for taking down cursed? I've been really struggling. I'm on shd level 220 and I've been running it with a AR strikers build and a hotshot sniper build but only have come close once in something like 12 attempts. Any tips?
How do i unlock the hunters?
You can't unlock only summon
Search tutorials on yt
On how to summon them
Sim
Dunno what that is but u just do a few things to get em to spawn n then just kill em
Some are night n some are day time
don't you have to do the Agent Edwards mission first?
Preferably have a decent build hf scorpio works wonders
To revive a buddy do i need to press the revive hive button again after deploying it
Like targetting a target
Nope
Oh ok
Just throw it n let it do its thing
Are they the manhunt target or the bounty for the target
Also in your honest opinion should i use art hive or revive hive
Revive
@narrow matrix which one should i run
It's cuz i've seen someone press the button again for it
Are you playing solo
And do you go down often
Sometimes
Like a record i got
Hold on lemme get it to show that some times i go down
Skip to 0:47
reviver hive is more generally useful, its just a free second life
how often do u die in a mission/activity with no respawn mechanic?
if by your own assessment you die frequently, run a reviver hive. otherwise, run something else with a little more combat utility like a decoy, drone, turret, foam, etc
Isn't revive hive also combat utility incase you're almost completing something difficult?
not really. its only useful when you or a teammate dies.
it does not provide an active positive contribution in combat compared to say an assault drone or a decoy. if neither you nor a teammate dies, then it has served no purpose.
so, gauge how likely it is you will die in that engagement. check if there is a respawn mechanic. if you are comfy or good enough to run heroic without dying, a reviver hive is useless for you
you'll get more mileage out of that 2nd skill slot from distracting enemies with a decoy, locking them down with a foam, annoying them with a turret or drawn, healing yourself with a chem, etc
reviver hive becomes dead weight if you play smart IMHO.
in a group setting, it should be used even less. teammates exist to pick you up
They're a bounty target and I'm playing solo
I don’t recall them having some sort of special modifier or anything
But basically clear everything else as soon as you can then focus on the boss
Use a decoy if you can
Hmm yeah a decoy might work better
yeah it's just one of those bounty missions with a bunch of black tusk, there's nothing outstanding about the boss (just a named chungus iirc)
Thank you
break his chain to keep him busy and focus down other enemies while he repairs it, repeat as necessary
When In doubt use a shield or decoy
For tanks if you can’t kill them easily back out of the room
Seems like a good strategy
Don’t run special ammo directive, or fragile armor / scavenged skills if you’re struggling
So should i use art hive?
Or any other skill
Hey RIRI, Doom,Azurmen32
@supple swift @foggy needle
you dont need to ping people, if they are here they'll give you their opinions
8 times ive done the Invasion thing after getting Tally.. Not one component drop.. Wasnt this a "100%"?
up to you. id have used an assault or defender drone or a decoy depending on the build
Foam, arty hive, heal chem, decoy, assault or defender drone are all good options to combo with crusader shield
I have almost no ability tier for the striker drone
neither do i
🗿
Then striker is useless i guess
I mean you're on higher difficulty with a 25 k damaging drone
Almost nothing
when i use mine on a run and gun dps build its there to either proc insync or to annoy enemies enough to keep them off me
its not there to kill. its a utility
Aight so should i use art hive or defender
Two options that i might combo with
On your opinion
really best way to go about it is find out for yourself which one ends up benefitting you more
you cant go wrong with a reviver either
the only options to choose where you'll be absolutely wrong are bombadier drone, burster firefly, incinerator turret
how often do you die in heroic and are you always solo
arty + shield isnt bad either
what is the build anyway
But some options are hard to decide
I'm doing iKia's striker build
With memento ofc
only reason you're considering reviver is you are dying a lot. are you?
Nah
Except for heroic
The only time i died 5 times was bc i changed shield to defender
when i talk about activities i only consider heroic or legendary
And i kept rushing
so how often do u die in heroic
Depends on how i play
I'm still doing the build
Last time i learned to not rush unless i want a quick and annoying death
Over and over again
I learned to keep defensive
only if you havent run the same mission 1000 times
It was a control point btw
I can do what he suggest but die instantly
Or get a second chance
Also revive hive also makes your friends to focus the enemies so they don't have to waste their time reviving you
nobody should have to revive anyone in group play
the heck type of single player mindset is that
plenty of people dealing damage everywhere that any incoming should already be mitigated
and even if someone gets downed, still quicker to pick someone up
So technically i should run art
yeah go run art
go run artificer. if you feel you dont need reviving, run whatever suits you
if you feel like you need it because statistics show you die every 5 mins, then go reviver
me
Question rq
Does art hive have some important paper in coop
Like
I almost don't see it actually having some important paper
...what does important paper mean
Like
Does it help the team
Unlike stim hive and restorer hive
(stim got haz pro paper in dz and pvp)
Not on pve
yes. especially in oxi farms 🙂
art hive is also useful when everyone in the team is running assault turret builds (cringe)
also useful along with faraday perk to provide hazpro to teammates and self (like in countdown or summit hunters)
instead of saying "paper" just say "does it help the team"
no-one else knows wtf paper means like that
How the hell do you not know that "important paper" means a role
If its a common thing then most people should know. I've been here for a good while and i've never hear someone say it before you.
ive never heard that before lol
could just be a language barrier thing
ayo
Ninja bike exotic dropped for me
Not the bag
The kneecaps exotic (i forgot what's the name due to not so fluent english problems)
ninjabike messenger kneepads
Does that mean i can help by simply deploying it?
@turbid igloo out of what is listed here I think foam Chem provides the most usefulness to stun enemies especially the ones that are troublesome ie true sons, rikers, outcast heavy gunners as they usually have special ammo and will cause you to die if you’re solo and don’t know how to fight them. You can either foam them to focus on other enemies or foam and dps them.
Decoy is second best or first best if you just want to shoot stuff. Either work good with shield
You know they can still shoot right
Not always
The ones that do are usually rogue agents or named enemies
Also rikers heavy gunner is especially annoying with that turret
You can either try to burn them while other enemies alive and get downed or foam them and minimize risk
Never heard it before
Maybe nobody heard it because of language difference
Could be…
Honestly healing hive should work as art hive but every 1 min Just so it doesn't become Op
what language do you speak where its common?
no, i dont particularly care, i just wanted to research it myself
not really, if you are using crusader you arent taking much damage yourself, its usually your shield
Doesn't it heal the shield?
Art hive does n liberty exotic pistol n gear set like foundry bulwark
artificer hive heals shields. healing hive does not
shoot
Okay that was a good joke lmao but like it's talents
What they do?
eagle bearer* gives damage reduction for a time on headshots, which pools the damage you take and gives you that damage when you finish the damage reduction time. the pooled damage can be mitigated by getting kills
Eagle Strike
Accuracy increases as you continuously fire, up to 30%.
Headshot kills grant the Tenacity buff for 15 seconds.
The damage reduction of Tenacity is increased by 1% for body shots and 5% for headshots. Default is 40%.```
Tenacity
40% - 80% of damage taken is delayed until the buff expires. (depends on number of shots above)
All of the total delayed damage is reduced for each enemy killed while the buff is active, up to 100% with 3 kills.```
its not 100% damage reduction, you'll still take damage
and its damage is not the top of the scales either
So as a trade i get the damage back?
you get a headshot kill, which gives you some damage reduction for 15 seconds (you still take damage, but its less)
after that 15 seconds is up, the damage you reduced is applied to you all at once, but if you got 3 kills you take no extra damage.
this is the literal copy/paste of the talent
Tbh all these questions can be answered by reading 😛
i'm chalking it up to the language barrier, i dont wanna be mean right now
Yep or switching weapons
...my stance has changed.
lol
i've seen people take a bunch of damage while EB buff is up, fail to get a kill, and go down.
Yea it can down u ofc
as far as i remember it also ignores oneshot protection, which is funny
So it's recommended to use revive hive if you got almost no blues
There is a lot of good information in the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice. Best to view it on a computer.
When using eagle bearer
If solo yea
Or just swap weapon if u can’t get the kill
Swapping with most weapon talents removes the buff
Technically revive hive art hive decoy are top tier skills to use alone or in group
Decoy good for solo if using mantis but still pretty good
Art hive if running a tanky build or oxy build
Revive hive good for solo n groups just in case u or ur teammate goes down
Decoy hella strong in the dz as well
System corruption gearset + decoy = ghosting
All fun and games until your tech gets jammed 😭
🥲
All fun and games until the hunter which Took 10 mins to kill revives for no reason
Kinda yea
Sys pretty good people run it with hsd / carth mask and fen chest unbreakable
I thought you were going to say those 3 magnificent words
What
That starts with k
Instead of the s
U a interesting fella
People say that 3 funny words in a weekly 1/8 chance basis
To me
I wouldn’t
Why does this remind me of backfire
because it also happens with backfire
What's the name of that exotic who gives bleeding whenever you reload?
Backfire
Oh
i was just about to do a control point
Worst exotic ngl
im not gonna do it anymore
Why
I like it
I mean
Depends which cores do you have
Counting the fact that it's a bit annoying
Lmao
Ah my current build for it I’m immune so the bleed not annoying
LMAO THIS 2 BLUE TIP BUILD IS WORKING
Noice
Why not
Anybody knows the rifle name
Riffle is police m4
Ty
Yea didn’t really annoy me either way tho I run backfire sometimes on pgc all red
lol
Good AR too have
THE SNITCH JUST WALKED INTO MY CONTROL POINT LMFAO
He looking for someone to snitch on
XD?
What the dog doin
whats funny is i already have cassie unlocked
Anything good
literally junk
give me a moment to walk to her and ill show pic
Nice shit as usual n I have the other 2 maxed
What's the difference between military and Black market guns
Stats n i think attachments slots
mendosa west of truman
Black market is visually thicker and heavier as the parts of the gun are more beefy, stock is longer, mostly the change offers an extra mod slot tho or has a longer barrel
For instance SASG 12 shotgun cannot run tech laser pointer unless it’s black market version
They should add a black market mpx n famas
where is this from chat?
Good question
Could be hardcore capitol probably
was googling but cant find it,only thing i found is white house on backpack and that one you get for playing beta
Should i use revive hive or striker drone with crusader
It depends on what you need
Do you go down a lot or do you want to draw aggro off you
I mean
Drawing aggro off from you sounds great
Even for teammates
Does rogue agents get distracted with your drone
Yes but they shoot it down just as quick
is there a big difference in CQC Hunter fury and Hunter fury ? in how it preforms ?
?
Rip striker drone 2019-2023
if that "?" was for me, there is 2 different Hunter fury SMG setups in the google doc, (well 3) but one guide says "CQC" other i just Hunters fury. But Afaik HF is kinda CQC build in general
Hf is cqc set
Yea that’s why I was confused
Smg HF is a lot of reloading … headhunter HF is no reload
Pummel refills mag, regulus basically wipes all enemies nearby but you have to reload that
Faster? HH
Practical use (for every situation) smg
Anyone use LG GHUB when playing Division 2 on PC
Having some issues here
If anyone does, let me know. It’s like software reads the game but it doesn’t allow me to set up keybinds or anything for it
Do you have to do the hunters for the ivory keys on heroic mode? They just keep oneshotting me 😬
Any difficulty is fine.
Oh weird, somehow cant get the 1st Hunter to spawn on Normal difficulty by shooting the targets, but it worked on Heroic before 🤔
Did all the DC ones on World Tier back before you could change it and that worked fine.
Oh well guess I'm bugged then
Are you sure you're following the steps exactly? They can be obtuse.
Yea it's just shooting the 4 targets in the windows
Worked fine on Heroic, does nothing on Normal though
Gonna re-log and try again
Just a PSA: you can't get the Hunter to respawn on the same character once you've killed it.
Relogging did the trick
I guess you can't somehow pass time manually for the time sensitive ones?
how/why is it that i farm control points in the DZ (with AR targeted loot area) andi get x2 pestilence. x1 doctors home. x2 lady death. x3 bullet kings. are these hidden ARs or am i missin something here. i just want the ravenous 😦
can you get rock n roll from named countdown caches?
from the named caches yes
Can Scorpio drop from countdown? I swear I did like 6 straight hours of countdown without it dropping
Pretty sure it can drop anywhere, I got it from shotgun target farming in Summit
You can do it for a month and not get it
All about rng
any one speak chinese on xbox
could gamble exotic caches from countdown vendor, if you haven't spent it already
6 for me lol
Ugh, I've been all over battery park and using an interactive map to look for shd caches in battery park, but I cannot for my life seem to find the last one.
Look for small question marks on the map (have to zoom in a bit before they appear) and make sure you've cleared all the fog of war
Any quick way to knock out 3 named riker kills?
Heroic cp 2x
Ty
Was pretty sure I had, but I'll keep looking.
Doing the obsidian bounty-story for the manhunt. I can't seem to find a way to get in. Any ideas?
This location
Hope this helps, I'm on Xbox btw if someone can help me
Is there something I need to do before lefty start dropping for me?
Who can help me with entering the mausoleum
Please i Have Been trying to get in for a hour
Please help meeee pleaseee
Aight, found the last shd cache, I had missed one lonely ?
Any one have issues with game crashing every 5 minits
@shadow raven have you done the side mission connected to the Mausoleum? Otherwise you can't enter iirc
And what îs the side mission called?
No idea sorry, too long ago
Fast travel to Potomac Event Centre, turn around and approach it from that side, you should find an open gate
What the best mission to farm the coyotes mask ? (Jeff center ) ??
Target loot masks, as many directives as you can manage
OK cheers
Is the Busy Little Bee just a normal Exotic, obtainable from Exo caches, targeted loot etc.? Or something special? Seems kinda best-in-slot for almost any build 🤔
It’s obtainable from caches, and targeted loot after you get the Liberty blueprint IIRC.

It’s objectively good. But it’s gimmicky as hell. If you want to use it go for it, but it’s mostly unnecessary.
Server down?
Maintenance -> #server-status
Damn
I’m a new player I have the dlc just need to finish the manhunt any build I should go for I’m normally play solo it’s all very confusing atm
Hmm.. I suggest something balance between DPS and armor. My current fave build is the Heartbreaker gearset tho
Thanks
How would I go about getting that set
Let me remember my setup...
- Assault Rifle weapon with Flatline talent (or named AR "Kingbreaker")
- 4 pieces Heartbreaker (prefer Mask, Kneepad, Holster, Glove)
- Grupo Sombra Body Armor so you get crit chance and higher damage with "Intimidate" talent
- Backpack is exotic Memento (but since you new player and prob don't have this yet, you can do some trial and errro tho)
Summit targeted loot is probably best for new players. Just highest difficulty you can manage, then once you have something put together, countdown.
Further discussion, better go to #td2-build-advice 
That’s not really optimal. Ceska with memento or coyotes. You can drop Ceska for grupo after SHD levels but not before. And you lose damage running intimidate opposed to the chest.
Yes2, it is the optimal setup. I make this gearset to accommodate my playstyle, since I often loose the Heartbreaker stack due to my poor aiming.. 
May be better off with a less stack reliant build then, like HF
Absolutely not summit. Countdown straight away max challenging as level tho
Nah it’s kinda bad practice to depend on getting carried that hard. And it’s hard to find a match below challenging anyway.
I wouldn’t mind to carry and help lower level players — but that’s just me.
Yeah but forcing that on randoms? I don’t know how I feel about that. It may not be a big deal tbh.
I carry the randoms — me and my friends.
@cedar schooner once i get ps plus ima invite you to help me get the eagle bearer
I don’t play on PlayStation anymore tbh, not sure what I have for a raid build but I may join up anyways tbh
So uh
I search your division name?
So we play since you don't play Playstation anymore
It’s in my discord profile too
does anyone know why when i look through the sniper scope or any other that can change the way you aim the 2 little bars that expand when you're shooting aren't on the middle? they are on the right side with the left little bar in the middle of the screen
When you move they slide
It’s to show the accuracy of the shot if you’re moving… the more you move the further it expands
further it expands the higher the potential for the bullet to miss if you’re aiming with the crosshair
u need to find the thing to jump over
I don't remember where it is but there's a tunnel somewhere around the area
It's near there
For that I’m pretty sure you just need to go to the other side
the left one is of someone with the bars normal and we aren't moving but mine the left bar is always there on the center and i can't see enemies if they are far away
Because that scope only zooms in 3.4x magnification
The one on the left zooms 12x … if you use digital scope you can zoom in up to 16x
It has a 2nd zoom capability
The left one looks like the mantis scope.. which sucks
You see that tint around the scope
Yea you can’t see shit in bright lights or fog
here with all the scopes i have with the x12 x8 x4
its always like that i tried lowering the resolution to the one lower and it fixed but my game was stretchy on the sides
What difference does it make anyway
its annoying to have the left bar in the dead middle of the scope because i can't see the enemies that are far away and i mean if all the people have the scopes normal im trying to see what's the problem
Anyone know what year 5 content releases ? Just seen they are adding the content to PTS but no idea how to even join the PTS
When *
you have to select the PTS role in #557396261662097409 and the main PTS patch notes are posted in those channels
@foggy needle how do I download the PTS though?
from your Ubisoft Connect PC library
Doesn't appear for people who bought the game through Steam though
@nimble spruce I see! Luckily I purchased through Ubisoft so I shall check that out! Thanks everyone
Can’t beat a good positive community. Hard to come@by these days
This one's pretty nice
Hey Azurmen32
Hey what is prociency with gear even mean or do?
proficiency gives you progress toward expertise. Expertise lets you upgrade proficient gear with bonus weapon damage, armor, or various skill stats
oh okay thanks
got a query, i'm at expertise 3 but got an AR to max proficiency, what's the max ceiling for added weapon damage to it?
+3%
ah, so per expertise level gained i get an upgrade tier per se. that about sums it up, thank you
donating gear is faster than throwing materials yeah?
whats considered the hardest legendary out of the original ones?
i.e roosevelt, union and capitol
dua is easiest but I think the other two are fairly evenly matched
im trying to do the technician field research and for some reason books wont place a turret
just sitting in one place shooting
Maybe try nading him, if you’re not going to do to much damage, to try and reset him sort of?
i died and it reset him and he spawned the turret
Nice
looks like it was just a bug
Yeah sounds like it.
Am I understanding it correctly, that even if I have unlocked the Stovepipe version of Coney Island mission during this season, I'll need to level up the battle pass to unlock it permamently?
Legendary enemy HP - is that info correct?
legendary doesnt scale with group size right? its like always 4man correct?
it does
and the values are available in the #td2-build-advice sheet, Hub tab, under "Division 2 NPC health values"
legendary npcs' hp+damage scale with group size
oh! thanks 🙂
the ones you showed are solo hp values
cant find it in the sheets
oh damn it's typo-ed in the sheet, look for Divison* instead
@foggy needle can we correct this when you're free
its never been typo-ed, it was left like that to test you guys!
19 months.. took 19 months for you guys to find it 😜
Found it 😄
nooooo i lost the game
funny glitch 😄
What’s the best way to farm expertise level?
the number of enemies in the legendary stronghold missions does not scale with group size (but as mentioned, their health does)
Oh no
Makes sense y people 1 tap elites in legendary as well barely any HP
Make a alt char n boost it too 40 and then use scavenger points to buy printer flannel and then use the printer to donate to said item till u get it proficient repeat till ur out of scavenger points and then delete char n repeat till ur at max efficiency
so i have a question about pvp
I may have an answer
how are people so accurate? like, when i shoot i've got massive bloom on my ars, but these people are hitting nonstop headshots without fail
@valid bronze
maybe i just have shit aim, but i'm able to reach diamond without issue in other shooters and in this game's conflict mode i can maintain a career k/d of 2.0, but in the dz i just get beamed before i even have the chance to ads
Prob just good recoil control
