When you are Level 40 with an average stats Striker gear set and two average guns like Chameleon and a whatever and put the game at NORMAL difficulty you will 2 shot every enemy. THEN You go through all this trouble and grind to get the maxed out guns and gears and put game at HEROIC difficulty you will AGAIN 2 shot every enemy. It is like a snake that eats its own tail. When you reach that point what you do next? There is no more rewards. Help me make sense of it. Am I correct in my assumption?

The reward is the sense of progress and the fun of the gameplay
yeah saw this also.
but you already have progressed to the point that you have done all the missions and side mission and this and that already to reach the point to have the best guns and gears. there is nothing more to do after that. in 250 hours I have finished every single missions and game modes of the game at Heroic difficulty and I am very close to max out my guns and gears.
There's legendaries, raids, expertise, challenges like speedruns & solo legendaries, new builds to try, shepherding...
Or just play because it's fun, don't always have to have new stuff to complete
legendary is broken game mode to justify a reason to play more. illogically overpowered enemies
shrug
I know I know but the game conditions you to get the best of everything then offers you nothing when you have done so lol
That's what games do, generally
god few new DLCs would be really really cool
You know in Division 1 it would take a VERY long time to reach a point to question "What's next" xDD
you do have a direct "whats next" tho, its legendary.
its hard, yes, but not impossible.
Tiny dev team says 'new dlc next year'
ubisoft has like 20 global branch why thy are spread so thin
well maybe due to covid and maybe also for many project's they have
Ubisoft also short on money and don't want to invest a lot
yeah and they also have to make 4 games here
which they take a long time to make here
what 4 games?
the avatar game,start wars game,heartland and resurgence
and redstorm is still working on heartland
They did that a couple of years ago, then restarted work again but with mostly new devs, that's why we get so many bugs
well the new devs did worked on descent so maybe there's a reason for why it got delayed last season
if they only put that much effort and energy on fixing loops like Decent mode to making game better they might have made a few decent dlcs to keep the game richer and more fun after 3~4 years
and maybe update div 1 too if there's a slight chance
heartland & resurgence are seperate studios
well yes but they're still owned by ubi
yes but the situation with them are still completely different
dlcs would be a lot more work than new gamemodes
not to mention they would need to think of thing's to make the whole game fresh when it come's to making new dlc's
Yeah but they dont work on new expansions sadly
oh yeah forgot to mnetion here...how long does it take to get the railsplitter in the DZ?
How long is a piece of string?
Div 1 with all its ups and downs was being developed with passion. 4 dlcs for 4 years. boy that game was jampacked. it would take at least 1000 hours to reach the point to ask the question "whats next"
I mean I went back played div1 after playing div2
once I beat the story I kinda just didnt care for it I was stuck at whats next
that just proves my point lol (I asked "what's next" after 200hrs)
I beat div1 in like 50 hours
walking in a snowy Christmas time New York is a game onto itself lol
dont care much for the snow
It was so pretty when it came out. so memorizing
mesmerizing*
one day I am gonna be a global ICON when I kill the AUTOCORRECT -_-
I feel like I'm the only person on earth who doesnt go WOAW snow to div1 its just kinda flat and boring to me
pah! u miss out, big ti me
cause was the one that got me into div here
ur a snow hater I am a snow lover
I love the snow dont get me wrong but in div1 its kinda just eh and makes me go wow I could just look outside during winter and see the same thing
I got div 2 two weeks ago (I sank like 2000 hrs+ in DIV 1)
I got div1 after playing div2 and found the gameplay and build system horrible, completed the storyline and left at wt1
real
When it came out! at that time the graphics and visuals was first of its kind. no other game ever could make snow like that let alone to create that dead new york vibe and christmas it is just an unbelievable combo
theres not much in div1 to new players and is 100% a downgrade to div2
be it snow or cosmetics theres not much draw to it after beating the story imo
i mean the civie's in div look more alive then the one's in div 2
How can you even say that?
easily
Division 1 was released in 2016 (7 years ago)
I liked the atmosphere but yeah, really not the gameplay
You expect it to be better than Div 2 a 2019 game
yes and in terms of gameplay its close enough to div2s where I feel safe enough to say 2 is just better
no
I just dont expect it to be way clunkier with how similar it feels
well it was a game for its era and it was and still is one of a kind and no one else ever made a game like that
I never said I expected it to be better, just that I didn't enjoy it
If I'd played it before 2 then I'd no doubt feel differently, but I don't have that nostalgia kick
^
its not about nostalgia. I would not paly div 1 now even if I was paid 100$ a minute. I am saying it was one of the best games of its time (2016)
and the fact a lot more LOVE went into it than Div 2 which makes me really sad
You hate snow but did you know snow simulation is one of the hardest thing to create in game industry? like tides!
I never said I hated snow I just said that its not really a wowing factor for me
its just there its just how the world is
you mean now or back in 2016 when you first saw it?
even looking at it from that long ago I dont see it changing
There's a lot of love in the environment design and detail of div 2 too, once you start really looking for it and not just shooting and moving
I do love snow with fierce passion so much so that I always say I survive the first 6 month of the year to live the 2nd 6 month and the Winter time and been gaming for 25 years and honestly never seen a snowy vibe that good till Div 2 until Red Dead Redemption 2 came out that made snowy weather to hit the next level
Gods I would love to see how Cyberpunk could make snow with their engine
TD1 is a lonely place
maybe its how I look at games as games first technical impressinos last or even that I grew up just seeing snow all my life it just doesnt do anything for me
its just how the world is built and thats that to me
as it was meant to be. Ground Zero has that feeling LOL
It could be the latter
I'm going with 60/40 mix of both
I am sure you have seen it but just in case YouTube this (The Division Resurgence: Official World Introduction Trailer) from Ubisoft official
Resurgence is a mobile game? didnt know that (thought it is Div 3 or something) and Heartland is Battle royale? Kill me now
you are correct
heartland is specifically a " free-to-play multiplayer survival-action shooter "
and resurgence is "a third-person shooter RPG set in a massive urban open world. It offers the same acclaimed HD experience tailored to mobile."
so you'll have more time with div2 than you thought.
Resurgence is also very aggressively monetised from what I hear
damn that sucks
heartland is PC, though
could always use either some android emulator or windows 11 android feature
I need to be pointed a gun at my head to play battle royale
damn that sucks
I consider both mobile and battle royale that killed the gaming industry
both run MTX = death of good story based gaming
once again, that sucks. anyways, anyone found a use for the new set?
I think I've seen people use it for backfire
infinite thanks
how do u kill guardians?
Point your gun to the enemies with the "Key" label, left mouse.
why is this not working?
You have stuff marked as junk right? Also if it's a small amount you're donating it wont really do much.
Every item has a max level 10
So if you donate enough of that
You won't be able to donate more once maxed of that specific gear
anyone know how to get tactical assessment bundle blueprints?
it doesnt donate at all
Well I know sometimes the expertise UI bugs and people have to restart their game for it to fix. I'd try that and if it doesn't work after that uhhhh not much other than manually doing it then?
Well you know division 2 is a small indie game so bugs are understandable lol
You have to remember that you can't donate junk if that junk is already proficient.
But it doesn't look like you have many things proficient
im sorry that i think i asked this before but if im farming for sweet dreams should i just stay at countdown with target loot or try farming a outcast mission
If you are just farming to own for the collection I'd just give it time. It only helps when it comes to things that require melee kills.
Has anyone been granted missing apparel cache keys yet?
was gonna make a "the funny" build using it and bloody knuckles on a hunter set
Oh... You are getting an exotic cache every game or every other game while doing countdown. An exotic every 20ish to 40ish minutes is a pretty good deal just for the exotic components and a shot at that shotgun. Otherwise best bet would be an outcast mission with shotguns as targeted loot if countdown gets boring.
unfortunely shotgun is in black tusk/true sons territory atm so ill just stay in countdown for now
they are in the general pool of blueprints, so the common sources for those are cp3 and cp4's, and you also get a blueprint for weekly projects and also the first time weekly clear of invaded missions, and a few other sources aswell.
it is a pretty big pool so it can take quite a long grind till you get that specific one, but you dont get duplicates so you will eventually have them all if you keep at it.
bruh
I think the crafting lady also has a few blueprints every reset you can pick up too. She is inside the whitehouse next to the crafting table. Otherwise run hundreds of cps man. Oh also google the secret side missions to get a few extra attachments.
Yeah there are a few I think.
Inaya only sells a weekly blueprints at world tiers, not at lvl 40 that most will be on
RIP. Wait so would it be worth it to make a second character and boost to thirty, share blueprints and get them that way. Would she sell you them on multipule characters at 30 too?
New to lvl40. What should I be grinding/doing rn?
what kind of blueprints?
all of them
yeah right
Like 340ish I think.
The total number of blueprints is funky and you'll never get to the full amount even if you unlock every shown blueprint.
how do i get the crit chance mods for the famas
are there any missions that give them?
also which ones are they, if you know
some mission give them to
check everytime before starting missions what are the rewards
alrighry
Invaded missions give blueprints on first weekly clear.
Can someone tell me what they are?
We just talked about it in build advice.
It's notifications for completed activies stacking up.
People are also saying they don't get xp for stacked activties but idk if you are having that happen too.
ahh okay thanks
i meant which mods, sorry
To farm exotics on countdown, should I play challenging or heroic
Depends are you able to efficiently farm heroic ?
If so then yes since it gives you more money for the vendor aswell
otherwise challenging
You still trying for that coyotes mask?
i got coyotes mask in my 3rd countdown-
Yeah..
what are the best chc weapon mods for the famas?
3@ 5% each forget the names but if you don't have them just gotta farm CP3s or 4s until you get them.
same for all guns too you want those 3 chc mods
or 8x for focus
Can u get the st Elmo engine in countdown and shocker punch to?
if it’s in targeted Loot
only if you unlocked it via season pass first
the hell is this?
then the only other way is to have someone drop it for you to unlock the blueprint if you want it early.
Trash
@narrow kraken
I have plus 5
my gun is expertise 4 so that means it dose 4% more wpn dmg i belive expertise go as far as level 21 or 22
23 this season
I don't think so. Still best place to farm loot. You'll get 40-50 items in a run.
aaa thank you
i want a car 7 the 1 i have has CHD and overflowing i want 1 with DTOOC so i can put on strained
I believe the car 7 is locked to overflowing so you’d have to grind for DTOOC
yea thats why i weant 1 with dtooc
gl, you'll get it
so i can swap the talent to strained
if i reroll the 1 i have now and replace CHD with DTOOC i wouldnt be able to put on strained
Pretty sure it's not talent locked.
You'll just have to keep farming yo. Just less chance becuse it does come with a pre determined talent.
it is talent locked
You're both saying the same thing here just using slightly different language
Talent locked would mean you can't roll it to another talent. Unless I'm miss understanding how that could be taken any other way.
You can recalibrate it to somethin else
Meant that it only drops with one talent. But it can be changed
yeah
Like a pre determined talent?
Ye
It's wack
Talent locked would be a named gun with perfect x.
Locked makes it sound uhhh locked so it seems like someone would think you couldn't roll it.
Why is that ? That's the point of named items and exotics otherwise what would be the point
to be fair i havent played ina bit
Pre determined people usually used optimist or ranger 
i forget dose doing CD on challenging intead of heroic drop less better gear then heroic?
ik both heroic and challenging drop exo and golds
Carb 7 isn't a named item. I wasn't thinking about those at all. Regular weapons should come with random talents
Everything drop yellow and exotics, the drop raté changes with difficulty
aa thank you
Activity difficulty determines the average roll of attributes.
And the roll ye
ill do heroic then
Heroic is very hard for count down
its easy imo
Be careful
just anooying
I don’t believe it affects drop chance in any way.
You get more élite : more drop chances I believe
I got a completely perfect God rolled one with dttooc from a field proficiency cache
Caches are différent
Just saying it can happen.
Ye obviously everything can happen, just chances for it to happen are différent
You can drop eb in dz too but the chances are laughable
So people farm raid not dz
Oh yeah this was a one in a million drop
i swear i got the most incompent cd group
Called it lmao
The most incompetent? That's a really low bar to limbo under
Yet here we are limbo dancing with the devil
What did you expect from random matchmaking for heroic cd
People are bad
Most of them dont know how to build
we had a SHD level 5 nothing against him i give him props for trying heroic cd but his build was not ready for it
It's like when birds start flying in circles because no one is able to lead them and everyone is just following eachother
looks like i got a compentant group
You should always inspect your lobby. If you see more than 2-3 duds I'd leave.
well this group is all over shd 1000 with very good builds and there are no skill build trolls among them
game is broken guys
Nah dw it's a feature
new feature?
It's a joke, when talking ubi games
Haha
well we had a hardcore guy in my last game if you look at the guy beside mes symbol
yeah HC can join regular players in countdown, it's relatively safe (if you inspect everyone's builds first to avoid drone/turret type wipes)
and because rounds are short if things start to go sideways you can just quit having not lost much time
He took the wrong pill yo.
110k lvl must be glitch abuser I think
Well not every glitcher will say they do
THANKS BRAH
did heroic cd get buffed i swear its more harder then before
Felt fine the other day for me. Also I haven't gotten a crash or bugged game recently. Anyone else having more stable CD games?
Not me, but it's not CD it's td2 as à whole, I crash at least 2 times à day
besides the rare lag ive been fine
if im trying to get
6% CHC to put into my recal library, for both backpack and kneepads (so i can put them on my current gear), should i target strikers or the piece i need
it doesn't matter for the recal library so u can just target the slot for that one. (IIRC, recal isn't specific to brands/gearsets, just slots)
Also true
but if looking for a specific piece to keep, do as random said and target brand/gearset, not slot
ill target striker until i get a max weapon damage backpack
Should i use cluster mine or striker drone
striker drone is used more but you should generally try to figure stuff like that out for yourself
It's funny how striker drone is like the "second icon" from the division
Almost every trailer of div2 i saw has striker drone destroying in it
Like the resurgence trailer
Anyone wanna do a raid
Me
Some combo i had was cluster + striker drone
assault turret and striker drone is a popular combo
"what happened to him?"
"He used turret + drone against a hunter until he hijacked his skills"
its popular but has times it shouldnt be used- and hunters can hack cluter mines iirc
What happened to the voice chat channels?
see #discord-news
Oh wow, well, that's weird
Fuck
uplay is broken more that broken wings tbh
im glitched at 59% CHC when i try to swap gear to lower it it stays stuck at 59%
How to get the Y5 blueprints?
They are rewards from reaching certain season levels… simple, play…
Hmmm they must be bugged. I'm level 100 and missing most of them
What blueprint you need ?
There is only a couple new ones, electrique, and cavalier I believe…
Someone told me there's a blueprint for Perfect Companion and Perfect Galvanize
From what I understand, they added season 1-4 named item blueprints. But I believe those are available through descent rewards. Not sure about perfect companion or galvanized…
Troll response…
I still want my relic and prophet blueprint…
Oh, no, I was here all last season, the blueprints were never actually part of the season reward track, even though the crafting bench claims they were.
Hey Random, Azurmen32
Fill your proficiency up
i got many profficient crates but my proficient level doesnt go up
Proficiency caches have nothing to do with proficiency…. lmao
its 2:32 here, time for being serious passed long time ago
Trolling time then huh?.. smh
a little 🙂
just watching barry and saw something very special. someone wears a 5.11 backpack 🤣
watching what?
Barry, a TV show
ah
5.11 is a thing tho
ofcourse
i need a backpack tbh
Anyone know if 4pc system corruption with energise backpack with 6 skill tiers will proc overcharge when using system corruption armor kit?
i dont believe so since it replaces armour kit
also im concerneede
Wut invisible watch
dw about that im more concerned about that much expertise on a skill builds armour
But it should work theoretically no?
no because you cant use an armour kit
if i say ill give you $1000 if you eat this apple and then proceed to replace said apple with an orange, im not gonna give you $1000 for eating the orange
Hmm welp a certain cheese I was thinking of just poofed out of existence xd
also you cant overcharge in pvp
dz is pvp
both use pvp stat changes
yes youre not doing 1.2 mil with an ar in dz towards other players
That’s virtually an instakill
Can I do Iron Horse on an alt to get more base materials to progress the project?
What does The bravo error mean?
Bravo
Solid copy, solution not found over!
Yes, just be sure to have the share resources option from Inaya. Also, you only need 40 since once you complete one of the projects, it gives you back the 40 base materials to use on the other project….
Awesome!
Thanks for the info, I can get the exotic today
No, once you finish the projects, you have to wait till Tuesday reset (has to be a fresh run) for the regulus parts to drop….. so you won’t be getting it today….
anyone know where to farm material for gear optimization?
countdown or summit is good
if u run a challenging or heroic countdown u get about 50 items
but if u want shd tech n field recon data, u probably should go dz landmarks or CPs
The Scorpio is in the general loot pool right? I seem to get Sweet Dreams every single freaking time
I have 7 sweet dreams in my storage
its in the loot pool, u just unlucky unfortunately
aw... okay. Thanks for info
no point, save the best and deconstruct the rest
Hey any one here in this server explain a good dz load out
Cuz I’m tired of dieing in dz all time
First step entering dz :
- leave
Dying doesn't
I've seen that people reported smth about activities stacking in the upper right corner
Same thing happened to me while doing bounties. Nothing showed up saying I had completed the bounties and I have zero clue if it even gave me any bloody xp
hello, I am digging around the game textures and one of the hunters has this brand on their shirt. What do you guys think it is?
also a closeup of the a patch
One of the letters is Z
Man, something as little as moving my camera around can crash this game, bloody hell...
Ortiz, if it's to be linked with something recent
theres words on the patch, i wonder what they say
For some reason this game is crashing more often than usual
...I'm getting DMZ flashbacks again Hours spent in runs just for it to crash and lose everything, over and over again
This
I’m determined to read that green patch
umm guys how do i install the dlc? i just bought it on epic store
The very last word ends in “vent” I stg, that’s what it looks like, I could be wrong
@robust cape just restart your game
What's the quickest way to send a friend request, to a player i am in session with ?
currently, everytime i have to remember the name of the player and type that in ubisoft connect.
there must be a easier way right ?
😓
get to menu, go tosocial, click on the player name, add friend
at least that was like that last time i did
if he is in your group still its easy
@naive solstice
Google searched.
Someone please correct me if me if these dont have the right names attached.
ty
i dont see ADD FRIEND there

oh well
then you gotta type their name in the ubisoft connect app
thats a bummer i thought we had this
Fren
Can I take the batteries out from my watch please 
whats the drop rate of exotics on random npcs ? i just dropped merciless from a random purple bar and i wanna know how rare it should be
Pretty rare
yeah pretty rare
i got a random doctor home from a red enemy so that was interesting
how does crafting and extra gear slots worth? what pieces are benefitted by extra gear slots, and how do i get striker blueprints
extra gear slots? you mean mod slots on gear? you can craft improvised gear which give you an extra mod slot IIRC, but you also lose a brand bonus. very niche use. if that's what you're asking.
Where to farm these?
dismantle exotics, and they can also come from Control Point caches IIRC (wasn't that recently added a season or two ago?)
It was, also DZ Landmarks afaik
CPs and landmarks yeah but relatively low chance
ah yeah, thanks, keep forgetting DZ exists. XD
Yesh, I was farming SHD levels with CPs, got one component in like, 40 lvls
Is that actually a thing
I am not sure if I have gotten in whole playtime 🤣
I've gotten a few, but not many
it's supposed to be a 10% chance for CP4s I believe, but it's easy to miss as you don't get an obvious notification when one drops
Yeah when you open the box it'll be on the left like any materials you pick up.
Landmark drop rate is more like 25% though so that's the fastest farm if you've got a group (landmark enemies don't scale with group size so you can clear them super fast)
if the DZ is clear of annoying hackers and rogue groups anyway
wait this is the 2nd exotic i drop in less than 5min from a random not named npc
ok this one was an elite but still
luck is weird sometimes
Chance is a strange thing. Last weekend I got 7 exotics within like 4 hours while the other person I was playing with got 0. Two of them were within three minutes of each other too.
ya, some days you'll see red light beams across the land....some days life will be purple and yellow....
Is there a way to reshuffel attributes ?
no
You do get to recalibrate one attribute on most items.
only one
Some attributes are locked on named items and you can't recal exotics.
I guess Setup is locked.
No you could reroll the attributes you see there
you can reroll it, just not the talent iirc
I only need to reroll the Attributes the Talent has to stay were it is
I want Explosive Res and Skill Damage to be Crit hit and Crit Damage
you should be able to
you can only do one of them
Well gotta farm another one then. You'll only get to change one attribute. What you are asking is called a unicorn. That backpack always rolls armor core so you'd have to have it drop with CHC and CHD.
Then you'd roll red core on it. Since it's named it's even harder to find.
@waxen hound Are you new? Just starting out with a build?
Need me a yellow setup for my FI build still haven't gotten one
I've gotten one with repair skill and a blue but hey it's good enough ya know.
I just hope our guy here isn't shooting for some crazy hard to make build and is gonna spend a ton of time farming extremely hard to find items.
Somewhat new. I played on release. And started out with my 2nd build. First was Future Initiative. But its nit a good solo build. So im making a Hybrid Solo Support build i saw online
Just need the Pointman and Scorpio Shotgun. And a better AS
That's the fun part, finding unicorns😅
yes it was sorry i didnt know
Hell of a run on Descent, this was the big break I was looking for
Fun, tedious, it's all the same. I still farm unicorns all the time. Pretty much all that's left at this point tho so it still gives me something to do. New players should know what unicorns are but probably spend time farming other stuff until unicorns are the only progression for their builds.
Oh well that's good. Well if you ever need a bunch of builds the #td2-build-advice has a pinned spread sheet with loads of the best builds you can make.
hello is determined talent broken now?
It's still chaining bodyshots if that's what you mean
According to the devs it's working as intended
I think they gave up lol.
To be fair the talent isn't that good
Self proccing is op tho.
yesterday was fine, but today I just can't get the talent proc anymore on my white death
Its still pretty damn good. It is op for sure
Ah yes deleting anything that doesn't have a helmet and not having to reload isn't op.
I wouldn't call it anymore op than just not missing shots
Stacking 25-30m on bodyshots op
Headhunter only supposed to work on heads. Determined stacks it on body shots, dogs, mini tanks, and generators... not op at all 🤣
It's not op lol
I bet the time it takes for you to aim at a head is 3-4 times as long as dragging and just hitting the body anywhere.
It's not
Takes me like half a second to hit heads
Sure well I'll leave you on that hill.
Maybe you're just op,
😅
I'm not that good
Not anymore. I hit heads as fast as you do with determined🤣
Doesn't matter they all dead anyway.
When chaining body shots I'm just waiting on fire rate most the time but when I have to aim for heads at the chance of loosing HH it takes me 3-4 times the amount of time. Which if you say .5 seconds from shot to shot with determined vs 2 seconds per shot it's still a crazy amount of kills to increase.
But yeah if you could double or triple your effective kills I guess that's not op so yeah.
Thanks
Does aiming at head do more dmg with a smg and a striker build
aiming at head always does more dmg even if you don't have any hsd on your gear
due to innate hsd on the weapon
Ok
head shots deal increased damage so yes for any build and any weapon (hitting it is a different topic)
i know azur loves the long scope that deals 30% more hsd
with the red round reticle
I have a mantis build and it hits 200 million
Nope it’s 200 million
heavy doubt
count your digits man
i have yes but that has a lot of buffs
I don’t like nemi
have you seen 1 billion regulus
1 billion
yes
gl with that, got mine from a named cache
1 bill D50 tho...
Nice. Made yourself a HB build for them?
Anyone know the name of named d50
Idk
there isn't one unless you meant the survivalist d50 which is terrible
Yeah what was the talent again
Not every gun is named
perfect sadist iirc
Ah yeah yeah alright thank you
you'd be better off with a normal d50. it can roll to max unlike the survivalist one
Yeah
Wanted to use it with my ongoing directive build
Too bad it's survivalist
get farming
Just do countdown
Oh I do have normal ones and a bunch lol
Didn't realize they were better ?
yes, named items and exotics are not always good
Ah I see what you mean now only 25% increase with bleed and 8% dttooc
Seem to be having trouble finding a 'railsplitter'
Named caches
Is your best bet
Yeah, I've opened about 500, no railsplitter
You can do the hunters if you haven't to open the box in the whitehouse.
Takes time it's all rng
That's shield splinterer
That's splinterer
Not railsplitter
Oh yeah you're right.
FYI best chance is farming DZ when target loot lines up, otherwise yea named caches.
Took me a while, you can try running in a group in dz if they are nice enough but yeah
Can anyone tell me how join a diff server in td2 cuz I keep joining Asia and I live in US west
group with someone on the us
Yeah I mean not much you can do other than to join someone else on a us server. Other option would be to power cycle the network and restart the game? Maybe that will give you better ping to a local server or something?
The determined chain body shot build I'm working on, I found that sometimes Determined won't be active after killing with a headshot, but sometimes it does activate. anyone facing the same issue?
yeah its a known bug
Yeah I've notice that from time to time.
So.. it's RNG to working properly now or there's quick "force it to work" without trying to relog?
swap to a gun without determined then swap back
ok will try that
I'm not sure what's caused it but recently I've started to have a game mechanic where I need to kill a randomly marked yellow enemy before I can kill everyone else.. Can someone help me figure out what is causing it?
This is the mechanic I'm talking about
Oh that's caused from the event?
you can opt out if you want
That makes more sense lol
I only now came across it after putting on the new armor I got so I thought it was caused by that lol
ty c:
np
The gift is dz exclusive right ?
Yurp.
Thank you
You can also get them in named caches tho.
and if u pray really hard, maybe the countdown vendor might sell it for u one day....
hello, i am doing john league quest, and i need 7 more badges, all i left is outcast elite and black tusk headshot
which one should i farm and where should i farm?
Oh a dz vendor does have one but I think it has two yellows and a mid weapon damage.
Yeah DZ south.
Also perfect vig just has a better cool down and not any extra damage. It's nice but other things can replace it with no problem until you have one later.
So this is a query to the Day 2 of Guardian. Disrupting the Guardian. Does that mean Shocking / Burning or what exactly?
emp/disrupt. should have options of a pulse, sticky, and uhm....grenade to use for that....among a few other moethods I can't recall off top of my head.
ok perfect thats what i thought I will have to switch my gear again a bit XD
ty KiRRA
np mate, goodluck
Hey everybody 👋
Is it correct that i can get the elmos on my second char when i got it on my first !?
yes
@marsh tundra thx
iirc it is not in target loot, so you will need to farm exotic caches to get another one
But i got it from the season Pass, so it is not in my specific lootpool?
just farm ar
I am since 2 weeks 😅
I am running countdown without break....
So i got around 70 exos and 50 Caches... but no elmos
how the f do you kill the nemesis ? i just fought him and he literally 1 tap me to the ground without even the anti oneshot mechanic to proc
i took like 3 times the defensives stats and 2 times offensives only i still get one tapped
and the range didnt change anything
he definitely hits hard for sure. it's just about learning the mechanics and cheesing him with some crowd control and just burning him down most of the time.
foam, trauma, fire ammo in pistol, all good choices.
be sure to check the supply boxes for the fire ammo (it's rng there)
didnt got any
but yeah, without being able to keep him still and locked down u really gotta be putting out some nice damage and hope he doesn't slap u with a skill or when u peek
before the boss
he didnt have to
he killed me before showing his face out of cover
i was suppressing him then i got down as if this was a hacker in dz
what am i missing
he probably blind fired on u cause NPCs are gods and apparently have eyes growing out of their barrels that shoot organ seeking projectiles at players....
shrug very common, lol
yeah ofc a random enemy can onetap a tanky build from a distance with blindfire
that doesnt sound busted at all
same way a controller archetype with an smg can burn u down from 2 blocks away, lol...
at least this npc i can buerst him down
a boss i cant + he heal himself
its not often i dont see a solution for a mission but there im lost
Anyone wanna join my clan
Beat me to it.
There is a pinned message for the format and rules about your post.
Can be seen in the clan recruitment channel.
Wdym
If you want to make a post looking for clan members go to #td2-clan-recruitment and click the pin at the top right to see the message format and rules about posting. That is where you'd formally ask about people joining your clan.
this is a web site?
It's a vendor on the map.
You'd need DZ credits. Unless you are referring to my screeny, that's from this site. https://rubenalamina.mx/the-division-weekly-vendor-reset/
does the skill mod loot allocation only drop mods for your current skills
For any skills iirc
Hey Azurmen32
can you get st elmos from targeted loot before you get it in the pass?
no and it might not be in target loot after you get it (will be in exotic caches though)
ive seen a couple people get elmos from open world drops after they get it from pass
it might still be in the general drop (non target loot drop) but still need more info on target loot for it
mendosa will be at castle tommorrow in 18 hrs
It is in general loot can confirm, at least after you get the blueprint
so not bugged like last season new exos nice!
wt is decent
Descent is a rogue-lite mode, kinda like Dead Cells, where you play until you die in the mode, then restart with some overall bonuses.
what can you get?
xp, caches, collectibles as permanent rewards.
within the mode you can "upgrade" Talents to be stronger than in the base game.
can you pick a targeted loot like summet
No, because you aren't keeping any guns/gear you collect within it.
just from the caches/rewards.
like what caches
basic ones
try only if your game doesn't crash I have 2-3 session wiped out due to crashes 🥲
just try it and see
is it worth it?
only for some blueprints
rogue-lite modes in games are a lot of fun if you can get into them.
highly recommend trying it out before you have the magic spoiled.
some blueprint are for dz exclusive items
does running tidal basin again count as Black Tusk Activities for the project
Can someone give me or explain a good kingbreaker build
Anything that has black tusk counts
Heartbreak
If you've completed the invasion then you can still find open world black tusk activities in NY
im in tidal basin again so i cant check but does the NY map tell you which activities are black tusk?
Yeah if they're not question marks then it tells you which faction they are when you highlight them
ty its been a min since i played so i forgot black tusk was in NYC
If they are question marks, you can at least safely ignore any with a line going to a control point
What is the best way to get all the blueprints?
Control points
Thx
And also how do u get skills proficient instead of useing them
for all of em?
when a mission says in the reward section u will get a pb it is 100% sure will not be a copy? (like when you open a clothing chest and get a copy of the same and get text credits)
it will always be a unique blueprint that you have not yet unlocked
random, but no duplicates
Don’t u gotta do sum past seasons for some gear blueprints to
Like for hunters fury if u didn’t do season 3
Some of them are season locked yes
I mean just farm them instead crafting then
descent BP rewards is supposed to be the fix for that iirc
the only important crafting BPs really, are weapon attachments
I have all of them
Didn’t td2 team take out a weapon attachment cuz it was to strong or to much ammo idk
whats best practice with double/triple exotics, like acosta or ninjabike bags
i dont fully understand recal/deconstruct when it comes to exotics and the blueprints so i jsut save em all
Acostas comes with 3 colours
How can I get them?
Keep 1-2 ninja bag
whats that bag use? I melted mine
Mad bomber builds
I have one equipped on my 2nd char I think maxed out
i have two catharsis mask, 3 shocker punch holster, thats it
and then multiples of weapons
whats the use of that damn chatarsis mask? I keep getting left and right from cashes and it pisses me off
PvP stuff
ugh
Or some tank builds
I think I wasted 10+ box that gave me that stupid mask
tho I have buncha coyote as well but stull dont know the best build to use it on
I am guessing striker
From Coyotes description it seems like a Team based mask
🤔
The Guardian challenge is best done with an LMG and I am using Bullet King. whats the best build for LMG?
Coyote is a mask, which is good because usually masks don't have talents.
Best build for LMG depends on the LMG
Usually just go with Red DPS
For LMG's, there's a build over in #td2-build-advice > 📌 > spreadsheet > builds called "standard red DPS", use the version of it that has Contractor's Gloves (farmed via TL: Petrov) and Coyotes, you'll have a good time.
can you get the nemesis BP whenever? or do you need the other parts first?
I believe you need at least 2 parts before the blueprint will drop. But you can do tidal basin for the first part, the replay the invaded stronghold for a second part, then replay invaded grand wash for the blueprint…. Simple.
helping a friend get it, we just got andrestria. was gonna take them to kill Puck for the BP but not sure if it'll drop or not yet
Like I said, I believe you need at least 2 pieces…. But Puck is first boss, could always try.
i saw what you said, im just adding onto it.
I used to mess with LMGS at the start of game but now that I’m 809 shd level I mess with SMGS and ARS
Now
All 3 are more than fine for Heroic.
after long enough ingame, you can use anything in that difficulty without much issue. The main reason to streamline your build is just efficiency.
I mean heroic ez
But legendary is for 1000 to 3000 shd level range in my perspective
Any ideas what the yellow bars at the top of the screen are atm?
bugged activity reward/completion notifications
I'm on PS5 and captured a 3 min clip of someone who was clearly cheating by abusing some kind of ladder glitch. They was constantly climbing up and down a ladder while I was shooting them, yet they wasn't taking damage and killed me somehow. How do I go about reporting them?
I feel like memento is just not it with heartbreaker
What bag do y’all recommend
Well
Heartbreaker bag
It does provide each core
Eh If I'm running HB I prefer the extra bonus armor
From the bp
If it's for PvP, try using the chest & BP with Catharsis - 6th slot is free. Technician Laser Pointer on Aa12 with Flatline and instead of KB try a Carbine 7 or Police M4 with Flatline. The higher RoF is better at sustaining bonus armor than with KB
I need some community opinions. Do people like the “Core” mechanic on gear? Stuff like weapon damage, armor, and skill tiers. Would people like more variety in gear cores? I want opinions
Not much more variety you can get without adding in violently species groups
Like if you added “healing cores” or something ya know?
That’s exactly what I was thinking. Would the game benefit from more cores and options? How would it be balanced? I’m trying to consider this stuff
Explains why Im not getting any XP
because they lost
personal preference, but famas is a meta weapon
why would u recalibrate the weapon damage on famas
idek
core attributes are usually fixed, ur better off farming for a better famas
its my first famas ive had since like level 4
decisions made during low levels are usually the most illogical amirite
what will u be using the weapon for
what types of builds, what distance do u usually fight etc
pve content, im running a striker build, i fight close-mid range
also i have st elmos... is it worth using with my build?
st elmos is now the most meta
u can use it over famas/carbine 7/police m4
if u can, try and reconfigure the st elmos with dtooc on it
so just rock the st elmos for striker
im using a ceska chest piece rn, not perfect but best i have atm aside from the sacrifice
great job
i had to reroll like 15 something times to get it
and it wasnt even high rolls 🙃
rip
and the acs-12 swaps to a marksman rifle when im not doing countdown, for ammo conservation
sometimes in countdown u can run famas/carbine7/police m4 and scorpio
to stun the hunters
but.... the 20% CHC and CHD fro st elmos is beautiful
its good
this is also with nothing invested into CHD on my watch
this is the final results
once u get everything done, itll be even better
and im finna go to bed i told myself i wouldnt be on this late but i got really really excited once i put st elmos on
it was like the missing piece to this puzzle
lol
i think i clocked in like.... 4 mil dps? if my math is mathing
good shit
very happy about it
thanks for the help! and im gonna get some sleep and try and recover from this game changing discovery
oh also... what marksman rifle can i swap acs-12 for when doing open world stuff? i dont usually have many stacks in there and i try and conserve ammo as much as possible
striker aint really a marksman rifle build
i was thinking the 1886, virginian, or the diamondback
since u running gunner, u might as well just play with the st elmos
u dont need to really conserve ammo
thats true
how much ammo do u hold rn?
499 with the "less ammo" directive on
yea makes sense, just hit ur shots more KEKW
gn happy to help
gigachad numbers
lfg, trying to get eagle bearer
oh thanks
congratz
Have you experienced a bug today for Div 2? I cant shoot.
did you restart the game ?
Tried it already, even restarted my PC. Still wont shoot, only skills that I can activate.
Did a keybind get messed up?
None so far.
If i click shoot. It will minimized my game
Didnt even move it prompt to walk the minimize the apps in the screens
Is it my fault?
Internet is quite fine.
And also is on ADS only
you can shoot without ads ?
Yes, but while on ADS it wont shoot. It will just minimized the apps
I see, that quite disappointing. Been excited to play then this happens.
Could verify your files for the game?
ooh, imma try that now. Thanks for the suggestion
how many things do i have to have proficient to get max experise? ik theres a number i just dont know it and im not on rn
357 right?
The current max level is 23, for what that's worth.
If you want to divide that up.
is there like, a discord or a group for people who are learning raids?
to learn raid i suggest watching a tutorial video on youtube
or join a clan that does the raid often
Don't watch youtube vids on it. They are almost all bad or don't apply to current strats you'll see used.
There are discords that do teaching raids. They will run you thru and show you everything.
I can dm you some discords where you can get a teaching raid or just raid lfgs.
i would appreciate this very much
what does this mean ?
server is bugging out
lag in sp ?
current bug with activity rewards UI
activity completion notifications that just aren't popping up for some reason
ah ok
i keep delta away from team games..
this game is always online, you are connecting to a server.
so a good internet connection means it'll be lessened.
although yeah, this is a bug.
Anyone had any luck with fixing crashes? I’ve tried about everything.
It’s been 5x or more for me lately. And other days I don’t crash at all. Have already tried low graphics, on a 4090 so that shouldn’t even be a problem to begin with.
yeah thats a weird thing but people with high end graphic cards crash more often than people with lwoer end
like people with 970 crash much less than people with 3080
I never crashed when on Win7, truth....updated to a new pc early this year (yes, funny isn't it?) and now I crash. XD wth
i was have same problem lag or bug i guess with manhunt bounty's
Limit your FPS, game engine can't handle more than 180ish fps and will crash a ton. I personally delete my shader cache weekly on reset day or with patches. You could also verify your files.
I don't crash often but some days I'll get like 8 crashes in a row for no reason.
question about blueprints. I had the doctor home that everyone got. I got it on one character, stashed it and picked it up on my character that is higher level. I bought the blueprint in the white house form inaya. It doesnt show up on the other account despite me buying the shared resources and blueprints. The only thing I can think of is I deconstructed it after buying the blueprint. Does that mean I'm hosed and have to find it again?
That's what I was thiking. The blueprint shows up on one character, but not the other.
Bummer. I have had this for a couple days now, unfortunately. So I've logged out, quit, and rebooted a few times since then.
some blueprints only appear after full log out, log back in
very old bug, but if you got something that couldn't be fixed this way, i'm not sure really
I noticed it is listed on reconfigure. That makes it sound like I still have to have the gun. Does that matter at all?
it does
it means your blueprint is there
you can still get your exotic via exotic cache or something
you just can't craft it normally
Ah, that's it then. I moved it to the other character to get the blueprint thinking I could craft again so I deconstructed it to the get exotic material. Me trying to be slick lost that gun for now I guess. lol
at least its in the TL pool now
yawn
0.3% droprate from heroic summit i assume
Still learning the crafting/recalibrating stuff. not a biggie though. Just a game and its not like I spent money on it.
i mean
Surprisingly, I don't run into crashes. I'm playing on steam on two computers and have great performance so far. One's running linux and the other windows.
Interesting. Did not know that.
item behind paywall? whats that
if you mean lullaby or merciless, those are just 'reskins'
idk, didnt got them so cant tell
enforcer is a named that come with pre-order
enforcer was sold recently for $0.10 tho, for a little while....lol
its a named, and not that good, i dun care really
i got enforced in mail after deleting my 4th character first time? huh?
plus it's not like getting it adds it to the pool IIRC....
u get 1, and done....lol.
tyhere's also stinger
I bought it just because it came with some apparel, and the gun.
so how to expertise it then? (not using resources)
u don't? shrug
thats very logically then
There a few items you'll just use watch points for. 300 each 😎
Like the named gun you break for nemesis project
I haven checked but did they ever remove the hydden * gloves from expertise.
so can i see how many stacks i have with capacitor? this icon shows capacitor effect?
Aim your gun and look at the side of it.
Icon is combined arms
That's where cap stacks show.
oh, man, i feel im so blind sometimes
That's where all gun talents show btw
i see, thank you, i've been always, well i missed few bullets, it must be at cap lol
they did, stuff like Enforcer is still there though (and you can easily get another Adrestia by just moving your nemesis to an alt's inventory)
Yeah I ended up using the adrestia for a bit when passive weapons still got expertise. The good ol days
One of the ones I didnt use shd for. Towards the end tho I was like f it. Let's spend some free points, skills and some named stuff. 🤣
🤔
I'm just happy they're revising the descent project tab so people wont be confused anymore about the rewards.
looks like a lot of stuff got added atleast so players can track their progress on some bugs that were missing....tho I don't see the activity completion UI bug on their currently.
That's only been reported Alot for the past few days tbh
They do say they are gathering data on the missing apparel keys to grant them retroactively
yeah, I can imagine that being a lot of data to sift through sorta....
how many levels did players gain in the time it's been broken, did they own the season pass, etc.
Heyo is there a way for me to get the sticky emp now?
I need some men hunt but dont know which
jupiters manhunt mission at roosevelt island
An unlike some of the others you’ll need to complete the entire mission
ITs lvl 70 in the battle pass. No wonder it did not show up yet
I didn't open TD2 for a week and I just got this 4 gigs of update. What is it?
you still have to wait few hours after update to play 🤣
few QoL improvements and fixes
Lol fine by me, I still have other games to play
just kidding, when update came alive, there was delays
after updating game you can play normally
Oh yeah I remember there was a problem with the maintenance at June 19th. I saw it on Twitter
yep, just dont keep high hopes on update day and its good
does shepherding uses your directives/event to get players in need or its pure random?
Pure random
It's whatever the person calling for backup has on.
Is the tactian drone good?
For the most part no
It helps you to see
Decoy is better
Shit when you got your radar
When you disable your radar (w/directives)
Just look harder
Just listen for them. Man I miss back when hyena rusher girls would all say I'm coming, that shit was so funny. Still cracks me up when I hear that line.
Oh the "oh man he killed alex" line was gold too.
ITS A FUCKING CISTERN
Hey Kettle, .drib, Eevee
Henlo
THEY GOT ALEX
hey Saph
If im going for walker kneepads is it better to target loot walker or kneepads
always farm the brand, much less items to filter for the one you want. (use gear slot for exotic farming)
how do i get test subject
Random drop
clearly i have no luck thrn
f
whats the difference between named petrovs contractor gloves and the un nammed version ?
named contractors gloves has a unique attribute IIRC, damage to armor I believe? 🤔
Ye dta
whats this item thats highlighted?
Hmmmm TODO gearset
What's next README manhunt
more like do me manhunt
😲
XP thanks
is all red FI viable for raids?
if you team doesnt need healing, then yes
Needijg a bit of help Should I do WT5 tidal basin first or just jump straight to warlords lof NY
wt5 first imo
it depends. If you care about the story then yes do WT5 (also see story order pined in this channel) otherwise just jump straight to NYC.
Thank you
Hey. How on playstation people spinning as crazy on DZ and nobody can't target them?
So I'm guessing the honey badger doesn't have a blueprint right
Wait holup
so, is expertise really being removed for non-invaded darkzones?
and SHD watch levels?
HALLELUJAH
that's been on the board for quite a few months now though, they haven't figured out how to do it yet presumably
Is there anything I can do about the 51/52 card thing? Is it true that because I helped someone kill one it buged my game?
idk what youre referring to
yeah, if a card drop happens in your world, for whatever reason (other players, or just that they die to other nps's), that you dont pick up, it will count as having been done for the porpuses of the system that tracks what nameds to spawn, as normally it will try to spawn one that the most people in the group still need, but if it thinks you already have it all it will go full random, meaning it can take a while to get that last card, ut you will get it eventually
one thing you can do aswell is if you figure out which one you are missing, is to get nameds to spawn at their dedicated spots, if its not the one you are after you leave them alone and fast travel away and back, and usually it will spawn a different one, one spot is west of federal that is easy to get to
the ones in dc only go once every 24h
I managed to get the last one, took about an hour of the white house method
Quite happy about it since I can now go have fun again ^^
stop saying stuff when you dont know what you are talking about
thats how it used to be
the ones in dc only spawned every 24h while the ones in ny were every 30m
or hour idr
dang so I should have been doing it daily, I've missed a lot of days, but it's ok I'm still working on DC
both of em have always been on a 30 min irl timer
not always
