Is Umbra good for ANYTHING?
Thx for the info👍🏻
Well considering a fact that everyone has near maxed chc best you can get is 10+25 chd. Thats right?
so like is the referral program for pc just broken or.
it wouldn't let me select pc so i picked xbox instead and referred a friend, we did the 3 missions and no t1 reward zz
pretty much yeah. in groups 50% chc is optimal. solo 55% is best
with coyotes specifically
And one more thing - if everyone sitting in covers and shooting faraway targets all group basically gets nothing (if everyone chc is near maxed). Thats right too?
depending on how far away the enemy is that ur all landing shots on. to run it perfectly, you want someone triggering midrange bonus, and one triggering the closerange bonus
cant always get that perfectly ofc, but in an ideal scenario thats what you would want. you'll see on your active talents bar beneath your ammo how many coyotes buffs are active
Cool - thx for the answers bro👍🏻
np bro
the deceit mask is from Bardons manhunt mission right?
yes
how do i even start this? i am at the white house
Is anyone else not getting Apparel Event Keys from playing Decent?
I leveled up more than 4 times playing and I think I’m getting less keys then I should have
known issue listed on the trello board: https://trello.com/c/YZJF6t9o/129-descent-the-apparel-cache-keys-are-not-awarded-for-leveling-up-in-descent
Are there any plans for compensation?
no idea, I don't have a twitter account, so can't see if the devs have said anything
Doubt it
skill on armor?
yeah, like there is damage, armor and skill
league missions give u 10 of medals and u get a caches every 6 medals*
so its pretty good
okay well i am trying to matchmake and no one has joined
red/blue/yellow all have their own builds
usually red is for dps, blue is for tanky builds, yellow is for skill damage builds or healer build
some people will run a hybrid between red and blue but in my opinions i prefer going full red
If matchmaking is taking a while, try starting an activity and "calling for backup".
You'll need to call again for each person that joins, but it's quite fast.
okay okay thanks
i like the damage one and for now i am like both red and blue
would you recomend going full damage?
yes
red/blue hybrids are good for beginners but at higher levels, the few extra blues dont matter as much
this is for pve btw
alright yeah i don't like pvp at all, i appreciate it
just one more question is, which weapons are the best for damage builds then? i usually bring smg and sniper
there is a sniper build right now which is pretty broken
4p hotshot + chainkiller and airaldi bp
talent on the bp is either concussion or vigilance
for sniper rifles, u run white death with dtooc and determined
u can either run mantis or nemesis for secondary rifle
well i don't like using double sniper but will consider it, for now ill go full damage and see what i can get
did they remove the requirement for doing iron horse for foundry bulwark chest/bp to drop
yeah foundry and future chest+bp are in general loot pool now
ah I see
nemesis is to confirm the first kill to start up your headhunter, most of the time u will be using white death
but why the double sniper? i use sniper to long shots and avoid wasting primary really, i am not exactly really good
nemesis charges up to deal double damage
even after maxing out all the headshot dmg and all that on the build, base dmg on white death is only about 7mil but the nemesis can hit up to 13-14mil
once u hit 1 headshot on the white death with determined, u can 1 shot anything even if u hit their chest because it will count as headshot
nemesis, u can get by someone dropping for u or u have to complete tidal basin, open secret room, deconstruct the adrestia and do invaded strongholds (DUA, Capitol building, roosevelt Island), kill the bosses to get parts and blueprint from invaded grand washington hotel
that sounds like too complex ehm
u can search guides up on the internet and it gives you an easy run thru
its a named sniper rifle so u can get in openworld or countdown
this is an old screenshot of my build
u can run mantis or nemesis
both are exotics
white death is a must for this build tho
oki, thanks thanks
should i just sart farming control points for blueprints
yup challenging and heroic give blueprints good way to farm xp too since they got buffed
pummel 870 backup would take advantage of hh @ close range
i aint that good at aiming with regulus
especially since i almost never play on my own servers, its even worse
You're looking for #td2-clan-recruitment
How do i get The Apartment SMG? is it DZ drop?
named cache dz
sometime countdown may sell it
that's what i am hoping
opened 150+ named caches for it still nothing 🥲
For a full list of which items are dz locked, please see the first pinned message over in #td2-build-advice
That spreadsheet is your new best friend.
thzx
i got a piece with 150,000 armour core attribute. Can i extract this for now and then when i get a maxed armour attribute extract that to replace the 150,000?
ok thx
be warned: it does delete the item you extract it from.
it's free though at least 🤣
I may be wrong but only strongholds have legendary diff. Other main missions maxed at heroic.
Summit too, but yeah that's it.
yeah i am in roosevelt strongold
but i do not see the legendary difficulty
nvm found it
ill need people to do it though
If you’re not at shd 500+ with perfect built gear and/or very skilled player - there’s is literally nothing you can do at leg mission :/
okay then i won't bother
SHD does not matter, your build/knowledge of the mission/game does.
Well my personal thought is that you can try leg only if you play heroic with absolutely no difficulties. If it’s quite hard on heroic - legendary would feel like impossible lol
- i mean solo
I remember leg Roosevelt the annoying part is when 3 heavies spawn at once
The end is actually not that difficult if you know what to do
When we did it we camped at the back
On legendary if whole team got whiped that’s gg? Only restart from the very beginning?
sounds like a gm
what does the Hollywood Global Event do? I can't find any description
the least they could've done was post an event description, because not everyone has played this type of event already
The only CP is at the final part
So if you die before then you will have to redo the whole leg mission from the start
If you reach the final area you will get a CP and when you die you will restart from that CP
So if speaking about Tidal - you can restart directly from that last missile launchers zone without playing a whole mission again (considering a fact you reached it ofc)?
Yes
Cool thx for the info - always thought it would be full restart lol
Also is there any limit for revives each player can get or theoretically a tank with shield/hive can revive whole team endlessly?
Not sure tbh
No limit on revives in legendary
Thx for your answers guys! Sounds like a reviver hive is a must for a low-shd player on leg mission👍🏻
Some ads will have a golden barrier around them which causes them to take about 1/5 of normal damage. The barrier can be removed with an emp, explosive damage, or specialization weapon damage
If you go into the seasons menu and click the Hollywood event, there should be a button that says “show event details” or something like that.
i dont see dr home there too
How do you get the Bluescreen?
They'd have to redo then entire board every season. They aren't going to do that.
or make a dlc and paste a new board XD
maybe we have new wall after we rebuild Castle👀
i know they mentioned that new DLC is underway.....
any info on it? abt lvls especially.....?
Like theyre going to bump max level to 50 and make all of our existing gears useless? ..... 😦
Well gear 3.0 would be something.
dont really fancy the idea of salvaging all of our equips / exotics and farm them all over again 😦
Yeah but most people like the looter aspect, plus these builds is getting kinda old.
last they mentioned it they "had no intention or plans to raise the level cap at all" but that was months ago.....but I figure it's probably the same mind set....
I know ninja backpack is bad but man that thing really had a chance to mix things up.
like, with everything going on you really think they want to add new levels and gear data and such? no offense to the team but they can barely add blueprint without breaking them, or new gear with correct tags....them adding new levels for every piece of gear/weapon would blow their tiny lil heads off....
i mean......
they did that for the base game -> wony~
+10 levels and lvl 40 of pre-existing wpns~
But yeah - back then there were not so many items as compared to now
didn't they change the team?
stuff started breaking with the new team i think
u mean back then? (transition between base and wony?) or now?
Well if they did a gear 3.0 it would be a total overhaul like when they did gear 2.0.
now
i don't remember the game being riddled with bugs when wony got released like it is now
but I mean with the current team (since they changed teams and old team is on other projects now). they were given a project they really knew nothing about, no manual on how it was coded/built and told to run with it. they've been dealt a bad hand and have been dealing with trying to create new content/gear/etc. without all the background knowledge on it. I just wouldn't trust them redoing the entire system to add levels at this time. like, if older devs came back to game to work on that scenario, sure....but currently? nah.
nothing against the new team, just don't think they're ready for that big of an overhaul yet.
I think if they got to write the book and knew the ins and outs of the new gear system it would be better. The claim isn't that they are incompetent, it's that they were handed a beast they didn't understand. So let them make their own beast. That's how I see it.
I think Snow Drop is also a terrible engine to work on for this kind of game
thought i read somewhere that the div1 team said that SnowDrop was not made for these kinds of games but were forced to use it for Division or something
best looking engine Ubisoft has tho
They've said they have a big endgame overhaul planned to drop with the dlc, but afaik haven't elaborated on that at all. Wouldn't surprise me if it did invalidate current builds, but that's ok by me, as long as the gameplay remains enjoyable.
guys do i get system coruption in conflict caches ?
You should be able to, yes
okay thx man alot wil lfarm conflict betterthan darkzones ahahha
DZ caches and Legacy season caches also have it
Max commendation on PC was 7340 on PSN I see people 7355 Was it patched?
You just reminded me that was a thing let's see how many I haven't collected in the past maybe two years now
Yeah no. System corruption is dz only.
Legacy cache can drop it
It can be targetted anywhere . It's a random drop in the dz
I just came back/ stopped 2 yrs ago PC at 7340 I see 7355 players on PSN
Damn I actually didn't know that I thought it was just a random gear set I don't use it much so I never realized it was only in dz
It's better to know what you're talking about if giving advice. Jmho
i cant put it i su mmit
and conflict cache ?
Yaahl and system corruption have never been included in target loot
Yeah I made a mistake
Best farm is to wait for a gear slot like kneepads to be targeted in dz and farm that
I'm not 💯 if it can come from conflict caches.
With the global event right now it's pretty cheap to buy legacy caches with stars. It can drop from those for sure
lett me check the event
any other way to get legacy caches other than season pass and event ?
Check if you can craft it that would be the easiest way with out farm
Need system corruption materials to craft it
I don't know if that works or not
but it should cuz they can drop me if they fet cache
Just gotta farm legacy caches or dz. It's that simple
You can't share crafted items
😦
Or items from caches that you bought
been farming about 4 days now got only one
Countdown vendor
it dosent sell
Thought they did
System is a shit set anyways. Unless you have a purpose for it I wouldn't bother, jmho
yes healing/tank build build
they will always have overshield and i can heal my self every 5 sec and them by using the crossbow specilization
That's not for system
🤦♂️
System corruption doesn't help like, literally at all lmao
Future initiative for healer
yes i know
There is a spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice with a bunch of solid builds
but i need the back pack and 3 others and i put the chest whenver i heal my team get overshield
was trying to make a build that is pvp good too only that came to mind
What gave you the idea to use system
But you barely heal armour and theres a cooldown lmao
Does systems not take the properties of your specialist
No it overrides it
Damn that would of been cool
Try cavalier maybe . You can grant team hazpro. Vanguard chest can give bonus armor. Galvanise + scorpio can give bonus armor. Look in those directions I think
You'll waste a lot if time and resources to find out system is shit
it would have been broken
Maybe a little:)
okay let me check these i thought system coruption was good 😦
Keep a eye out for it over time you never know when it could get a buff
No problem
yeah i just keep pieces sitting around
I got like a few 100 materials for it so I can build a set if it does get buffed wish it was better
why 6 piece..?
guys and gals any reason since last night my game crashes everytime i go into settings cant play it keeps starting in window mode but when i click settings boom freezes ffs havent change anything drivers etc started lastnight
bruh you cant craft a car7
nope
i got all 6pcs for mix and match
thats a load of crap
lol
that's why u gotta farm for it, and rage cause shit third roll cause u know u gotta reroll the talent anyways, lol
\o/ wooooooooo, fun times
famas supremacy
i like famas, i just use C7/M4 due to the techie laser...famas is nice tho
ive been doing CD but all ive ben getting are g3cs and akms and the occasinol famss or m4
the key to finding good C7s is to finally get a shit one to drop, and spend a fortune reclibrating and optimizing it, and then when you're nearly done the game will shat C7s left and right just to taunt u for spending so many resources....
cause RNG knows how to tease u
there always a possibility of desire sensor embedded into a computer game
drop percentage is inversely proportional to your level of desire, lol
I REALLY WANT THAT! 0.00005% chance activited
Your sacrifices have been lacking...
👀
Hope everyone is having a good gaming day
i give up on the car7
bruh i sacrifaced 2 god roll famas and 1 semi god roll m4
yea probs a while ago
Told you, he like god rolled c7 🤣 , too bad that's what you're looking for. Better collect some noobs as an offer
yeah i didn't wantedone and i got 4-5
i could wait tilll 1 of the vendors sell em or just keep no lifing cd
not godrolled i just want it to have DTTOOC
i can recalibrate it np and get it maxed
1 more CD game
Just craft one
🤣
Fr
ya cant
🤣 🤣
thats waht someone said
farm open world lol
AR targeted loot in west end atm
i deactivated that PoS event
im just gonna call for backup and do the control points
\o/ wooo, CPs
anyone down to farm shd and season track lvls
@rain echo take @glass portal into the next CD match. You know what needs to be done 🤣
pray to god i get people who can breeze through 4 directive open world heroic
aye naw chill
🤣
then its gos turn
what happens ?
Nice, me and loot tight 🍻
maybe if i sacriface a high level SHD like deck maybe he will bless me
Lootcifer keeps the beers cold for me.
what build are u using to tolerate hollywood bro
deck help me farm west end
ill bribe ya wioth a chocolate chip cookie
Not home atm. If I catch you on I will tho
ill keep the cookie for ya
not sure if i would wanna keep hh determined or run something else with hollywood
mortar cluster
with mop and insync
get upto 40% Armor on kill sometimes
I broke down and started using a mortar build w/regular sticky. Deletes stuff pretty good
u using 2 piece grupo setup?
yup
I was jamming everything with eclipse but it wasnt effective.
3empress 2groupo strategies alignment
And my group didnt know how to wipe shit while it was foamed 💀
i was jamming everything and still using hh determined. cant do control points efficiently unfortunately
Swapped to mortar tho and it was ezpz
What should I do after I've finished WONY? Farm SHD levels first / farm for a nice build? Something else?
Both
Can farm the global event and use the stars to buy named/exo caches. Gain levels and just work in areas that have the target loot you want
i want apartment
The GE is a bit of a pain for new players
an apartment
even for experienced no one likes it
Get job, buy apartment, profit
the apartment smg
Heh
Allright, nice. What counts as Global Event?
I do. Takes me down memory lane with my precious explosive build
Its Hollywood. It's an explosive themed thing. Esc > season menu> hollywood
This GE is pro-gun control but everyone hates it
Activate it then probably matchmake so you can get a group.
i got a car7 finally but it had dmg to armor
reactivating this terrible event...
🤣
it's alright in group missions when enemies are bunched together enough and one arty turret team member can get good use while everyone else finishes enemies off, but solo it's just a pain of spread-out enemies and long skill cooldowns
well i am farming it rn
best tip 2 players 1 eclipse 1 mortar
end of story if the eclipse xan overcharge than it
wipes
the npcs
Honestly artillery turret is all you need
yeah i was thinking with artificer
and its deactivated again
how dumb it would be
countdown deactivate event
Okay, thank you!
countdown is smart
lol
YAMERO
Yeah I wish this game had mods. I just wanna see Teletubbies as enemies or have people yell out beavis and butthead lines or something.
too bad it is online only
I do remember the day my audio somehow fucked up during running Jefferson Plaza and for like 5 minutes straight all the true sons sounded like angry chipmunks....
was the greatest moment ever....
Anyone remember in the beta when all the hyena rushing chicks would say "I'm coming" in sync when they spawned.
does the vile mask apply 1 debuff per status effect on the target or only 1 debuff no matter how many are there
Vile applies once and only once until it runs out then it can be reapplied if they still have a status effect or you apply a new one.
when was that 😂 still nothing beats "Yamete"
Idk it's like a meme to me like when they say "omg they got alex" I can't help but crack up at that shit.
sometime the dialogues are funny which is good
can't have a serious game without some fun
there was a building in ny in div1 which said something about dog pissing
was to funny
fire indeed. bought it on both my accounts
sexy
Deck I did over 6 CD games and did all west end stuff and only got 1 car7 with awful rolls
usable?
better than optimal range ig🤣
I swear deck watch when I'm not actively searching for it I'll find like 20
that's just how it is
you know u have a better chance of finding it if you whisper "I hope it's not a C7" while playing....
game will always give u what u don't want....
why need c7 anyways, spotter build?
Cause I wanna not rely on st elmos everytime
if ur gonna be somewhat close-ish to enemies a famas will be fine. c7/m4 is jut nice to the techie laser and for a weee bit more range...
then u might find the famas fine for u
unless you've already tried it in ur build before and didn't like it
I tried it I liked the m4 and c7
Akm was also good with strained as its 1 of the lower rpm ARS and if you can control the gun it is a beast
yeah c7 is solid. i used it right up to getting elmos.
big fan of an optimist famas. c7 is really nice for diversity of mid to longer ranges id imagine
Plus c7 is my fav gun in the game.
yeah that new skin from this season is s tier as well
Yeah, I strictly run a C7 after running an M4 for so long.
That's why I want a car 7 to rock that skin
love the famas early game, I tend to have a distance between enemies and myself at times and C7/M4 just did better at range.
Famas also is 1 of if not the fastest rpm ARs in the game as well
Isn't it rpm at 1200
Or is it 900
Like these past few weeks I've been crutching on the st elmos and I wanna change it up
i feel that. when st elmos was pretty much everyones mainhand exotic, i switched it up back to a famas so i could run scorpio in countdown
because not a soul was using scorpio for a while
I see Scorpios in CD more then st elmos now
Not all of us are big brain ik a few clowns on pc
lol oh yeah forsure. NA servers on pc may as well be the same as console
People on Asia servers know how to run CD I think there the best in that regard
theyre just different man. i love running cd on asian servers
EU is hit or miss
yeah i noticed that as well
asia is just a W every single time. NA is pretty hit or miss too
Insert the hit or miss meme😂
lmao i was in an NA cd last night. lots of new players in NA so thats def good for the game
but man it can be tough lol
yeah there is a lot of new agents all over matchmaking as well. missions, summit
We also gotta bully the newbies I mean encourage them
i shoud try this arty build and CD. lootcifer would be very happy
supportive bullying
tough love
Bruh if someone said that to me in game the getting a 9mm to they head
cant imagine how funny that would be to watch
you just taking cover, lobbing your mortar turret out
Hunters hack it agents go boom boom
the extraction phase would be boomin
lmfao true
whole team gets wiped at the end due to friendly mortar
Agents running around like headless chickens tryna avoid the mortars😂
Then watch as the hunters pick off the agents as they re running
would make for a good yt video
you're giving me terrible ideas
might have a reason to boot up the old xbox
we'll save the pc players from this atrocity
as a new lvl 40, why does everyone leave countdown on start??
no idea. people used to do that when the lobby was bugged and wouldnt start, but they fixed that issue. people do leave if they realize it's going to be more difficult than necessary due to teammates
When will Ubisfot fix those NPCs walking around in front of stash inside D.C.
Every time they reset my window and throw me back.
Its been years now
love the hunter distrupt
🤣
not what i was looking for but ill take it
currently using a morta build in CD
what would be the best way to farm blueprints?
Control point t3
i didnt find any c7s in cd but i did a godrolled m4
You kinda just got to keep going there's a lot of ARs
switch difficulty to challenging
silents sinner.
wat
Yeah drop down to challenging it's faster and you
but mah XP and high stats
I don't think you lose the blueprint drop in heroic but it takes way longer
** n o**
Lol
ik there are
It took me weeks to get a good c7
i never manage to get good rolled weapons in countdown
funny enough i get all of my good weapons through profiency caches
anyone knows whats that yellow aura? they taking like 50% less dmg bcuz of it
next time you turn on a global event, take a moment to read the description of what it does
How to upgrade my minigun skill tree asap?
World events for xp
Time-limited tasks like daily/weekly projects, bounties, invasion, plus just leveling.
Ok
If you know the farm for getting the battle pass levels use that plus what kettle said
Dont know it
Cant even complete a countdown 😦
Farm public executions next to title basin do other open world events then repeat the publics
Basically just farm as many public executions as you can
They give that much exp?
Two maybe three days I got maxed out on the battle pass I do play on challenging
This game doesn't have a battle pass
You find them in random bags across the map
Why tho
idk there's this one project from theatre that requires a hex wrench and it's annoying me bc I don't have one
Ah lol
ok but it's worthless so nvm
where does ksg shotgun drop?
From shotgun targeted loot….
thats what i figured its just ive been grinding targeted loot and got every shotgun except the ksg
Must pray 5 times a day to RNGeesus…. Or sacrifice a goat….
i choose the latter
what vendor sells blueprints?
Most of the blueprints in the game are locked to the Control Points (CP) at Lvl 3/4 (equivalent to Challenging and Heroic).
you can tell where something can be obtained by checking out your Crafting Table, all are listed there.
yep. thats why im asking which vendor sells blueprints
at lvl 40 none, that text is from back in the day that inaya would sell a weekly random blueprint that you didnt own at lvl 30, its just a remnant from that
👌
how do i farm for "the gift?" in DZ?
dz or named item caches
When farming anywhere, if it's a named item, go for the Brand instead of the Type.
so for "The Gift" it'd be Providence Defense.
What EXACTLY do I do in the XZ for it
I genuinely can't tell if this is a AI, or just a robotic sounding person
I prefer the term "artifical person".
when the DZ targeted is either providence (larger chance) or backpacks (smaller chance) run landmarks to get contaminated loot that is targeted loot, hope it is a gift. When you get a gift, you'll need to extract it.
👌
Ok Isaac!
i will say, unles you just wanna sulk around and do landmarks, dont do the DZ. Its just not worth it when any random can run up on you and just melt you
I will happily take a comparison to brandon keener, but only Garrus.
for the record, the best way to get those caches now is to buy them via the Countdown Vendor/during GE's for stars.
can't gift only drop from DZ
Named Item Caches have DZ locked named items in their loot pool as well.
Are Kajika's shock traps glitched? I was running Technician obliterate strikers and I was running fixer drone and laid down explosive seeker mine both one at the time and at the same time and none of them worked
Yo. How do you start the Warlords of New York Expansion?
Nvm. My cousin figured it out
He already started the warlords of New York expansion, but I still can’t invite him to my group
Why is the Catharsis mask so difficult to get sadge RNGesus be with me pls
He won't be able to join anyone who has finished the expansion, but you should be able to join him
Yeah. I’m with him
Rngjesus doesnt like you ig.
he really doens't
i keep getting so many duplicates from exotic cashes and hardly any exotic drops on targeted loot for Summit and Countdown lol
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Are most of the gear sets fun but useless gimmicks or can most of them be really good?
It's a mix but more are strong than weak at the moment
Strikers, negotiators, hunters fury, eclipse protocol are all very strong
Negotiators is good?
Hotshot, umbra, future initiative are decent too
How’s heartstopper and cavalier?
Yeah nego has one of the highest possible dps outputs when used to max potential
Heartbreaker is ok, a bit of a hybrid so less popular than the pure dps sets, cavalier is for pvp groups and not much use otherwise
Got it thanks
I'm probably forgetting some of the other good ones too
Is system corruption good? I’m reading it and it seems fine
Pvp again, and not great even there. Bonus armour is too short lived
Can rigger be good or not
Not really, it's convenient but the damage is low compared to alternatives
can always go full red heart breaker
And basically be a weaker striker that can tank one more shot?
Is foundry still good or did they change something
Foundry does its job, unfortunately its job is not a useful one. Tanking isn't a useful role in most situations.
Is the shock trap truly useful in anyway
It's sometimes used to trap hunters since it can't be hacked, other than that I'm not sure
Foundry is nice for raids but fairly useless everywhere else
Hey don't say everywhere else! I've made a perfectly (almost close to) viable deflector shield build with Foundry for last Events challenge where you had to kill stuff with deflector shield
'viable'
So that’s how you use the deflector shield
which is the best specialization? taking in mind i look for damage basically, i am using gunner but not sure yet
theres not really a “best”, they all fit different builds. most people use gunner because its very easy and has good benefits but firewall has an amazing armor kit and armor break talent, survivalist has PFE built into it, just depends on what you want
as for demolitionist how is it?
Hey peeps. Finally, as I am coming close to hitting level 2400, I have gotten to that point where I am HEAVILY wanting to make a second agent, to have access to more builds and to clear out my stash.
All I want to know is, apart from blueprints and materials, what else gets shared between agents?
My friend mentioned that apparel items are shared and I hope that's true as it means I don't have to be wearing bland clothes all the time.
I'd also like to know what DOESN'T get shared, as a heads up.
Hopefully, one of you lovely players can provide me with all the answers I'm looking for. 😊
Shared items you can opt into-blueprints and/or materials.
Things that are shared, commendation score (i think), cosmetics.
Things that aren't shared, credits, keys, collectables, specialization points for post wony specs.
Idk if there is more for the list or if I fudged up anything.
@rain echo could've been so good...
i got few with dttoc 💀
lol not necessarily looking for 1, but animeanbu has me keeping my eyes peeled
I got like 4 god rolls sitting in stash (not sure why the hell I'm even keeping them since I can't share) but I guess since they were so hard to find I felt like stashing all the good ones I do find, hahaha
Yes. Hunters and rogues like to roll into them. Also if you have armor on kill on your build the shocks from the traps will trigger the aok without an actual kill
me too
finally fot the apartment today
Nice
Good to keep a few with different talents
Musta brought the mortar and stinger hive into CD. Major sacrifices, lootcifer must have been pleased 😎
yellow sacrifice is what i wanted that is why i got the apartment 🤣
Pure dmg use firewall. The shield is huge buff
tried it. unfortunately hunters hacking your skills isnt as consistent as i expected 😦
so if im missing a prerequisite for a mission. if i do it on another players world instance will it count towards me or do we have to do it on my world instance?
Pretty sure it'll count toward your world too.
guess im just gonna run it on his world and see worst case scenario just got to run it twice
Getting an exotic blueprint doesn’t mean you can craft it but only means it can be dropped only after you got that blueprint? Is that right or I misunderstand smth?
yes, crafting blueprint only allows you to craft once you get the components and also (usually) lets it join the loot tables
Thx for the answer👍🏻
Cause i was a bit confused when got exo blueprint but have nothing new to craft lol
also FYI some exotics require owning the crafting blue print 1st, before it joins the target loot pool (if it even joins that pool). this is listed per exotic on the pinned spreadsheet
@sudden matrix
anyone know a good farm for D50 high-end?
Same as anything, farm target loot, pistol in this case
where do i farm pistols?
like whats the zone for it
im kinda new so like, im not really sure where the zopnes are
have to check target loot ingame, it changes each day (or target it yourself in summit or countdown)
Roosevelt island today.
ah
Yup or you could also do summit or countdown (which you can pick there target loot)
summit or countdown also
not a bother. for summit. goto its lobby, then bring up map > go to target loot tab and change it.
countdown is select it, then goto its target loot tab once selected through map.
does anybody else have this problem where some special ammo caches and also some caches in territory controls cant be interacted with?
you mean like they are already opened/ used? they reset daily fyi
you mean the finale cache to end the territory control? the one u open after grabbing the key. (not the minor loot caches around nearby?)
yup
i wasnt talking about CP caches fyi, but yes those too also reset daily
are you doing the same territory control over and over frequently? sometimes it can be buggy if so. if not then idk.
nope. logged in to the game for the first time today, did a TC and its bugged
don't know about that one then. only time I've seen caches bug out frequently is usually when repeating activity over and over (like I got supply drops I couldn't open if I repeated it too often, the crates wouldn't give prompt to open despite being a new event) type scenario...but if u just logged in, idk....ubibug.
the D50, does mission drop it only for story or any other difficulty too?
its just a normal item, so drops from everything
so it drops in invasion too?
The higher the diff the better chance of getting targeted loot, also applys with directives.
yup ^^
nice, then ill do it invasion, also btw, how can i keep the game from crashing and stuff and making it the only one ran by eac
higher difficulty uses the same normal loot pool just higher chance for higher min rolls.
crashing is a known frustrating issue, you can check out #unofficial-troubleshooting possible fixes there
ah ok, thank you
this is what i mean
already looted the key, game just doesnt let me open it
prob just a desync bug, or game being it's usual self. I've seen crates been finnicky about locations u approach it from and not giving the prompt as well....but I assume your connection is good and have already tried approaching from different angles so I'd just chock it up to division being division.
Don't you have to open the crate to finish the activty and get xp? rip man.
is that the little alleyway area to the NE of Navy plaza?
this one spawned here, which is now replaced by a food area
yup, thought so.....think I've had trouble with that one before (IIRC, it was VERY finnicky about where u stood to claim it)
What channel should I use to get advice as a new/returning player?
Not for just builds necessarily. More like a process to get exculsive armor, the eagle bearer, best xp farms, material farms, and get access to loot in the high endgame
i also said right here
Bet
My number one question is where should I go if I’ve never completed a normal raid for the eagle bearer?
it would be here, though for stuff like raid exclusive stuff like EB/regulous/ravenous, i would said raid discussion buuuut since those drop in DZ too, here would be a good spot
Eagle bearer drops in the dark zone?
yeah, and in dark hours raid too
yeah, since last title update i think
Nice! Glad I came here already. Didn’t know that!
yes BUT its like a 0.0001% drop chance
much much much higher chance to get it from raid
the drop chance in dz is rare, and you also have to avoide dying to pvp players
That’s my plan. I’m looking for a solid pvp survivability build too. But I know not to ask for that here
0.072% chance and it is not influenced by targeted loot
And only drops contaminated
Risky
tbf some ppl would suggest you to "try" to get the stuff in raid since there's always that off chance that some nice guy in raid or two will get it and drop it for you
What about drip chance in the raid?
Dark hours drop chance for the end chest is 10%
10% if i'm not wrong
and that's 10%, per agent, for the 1st chest per week, then it is 1% for the other chest till reset
Chest can be opened first run of the weekly reset and then every 5 times after because you gotta farm keys.
Where did you get this from lol
The 1% you're the first person I've ever heard say that
from one of my friend who datamined the game and well....is currently SHD rank 20876
SHD don't mean anything.
So basically you don't have proof
That ain't street cred around here yo.
ah well
Plus I've gotten plenty from not first week
And have had groups where multiple people get it multiple times from the end chest
As in people who aren't doing it first in week
the last time i've seen multi drops was an IH run where 3 guys got the gun and somehow 1 guy got the Ridgeway chest from the final boss
i got both the EB and rav sorta around the 30-35th raid
Okay
And for a bit the last key only had a 20 or 25% drop chance lol
oh i see, i sorta joined at season 2 around the 2nd target so i really didn't know about the reset bit pre wony
So I can keep getting keys all day all week or are those drops limited?
you get the key off the final boss on repeat run
When raid first came out the last key didn't drop 100% of the time and you couldn't replay if you didn't get it. Then they changed it so it dropped 100% of the time, but still didn't get another key on replay until like wony I think
Lol
fyi this is for normal exotics (not raid drops). raid drops in DZ are rarer then the 0.072% chance fyi
What is the key storage capacity?
And I can get these regardless of reset right?
Is future initiative good for an oxidizer build?
Is it actually
15 max keys i think?
15 yeah
yep, 15, it does have that limit here
Okay
Is that for both raids?
yes it is, its around 0.001% chance for raid drop in DZ iirc
ye, both Iron and Horse are 15
raid drop exo in raid is 10% from box and ~1% chance from raid bosses.
Is there any actual proven number or are we just going off speculation
datamine
Was the number actually .001
Okay so and after, I can go to the final chest and put all my keys in to try to get the EB right?
oh wait, then i think my friend got the data wrong about the 1% from the chest after 1st open, it could be them boss drops
datamine on the 1% from raid bosses is unsure if its 1% for ANY exo from boss or for it to be the raid exo though.
I'm referring to the dz drop rate
Sorry Abt not specifying lol
Was that mined or just speculated
yes around 0.001% need to double check for exact number, but its about that for the raid exo from dz, was mined.
Sorry for making u guys repeat yourselves too
If you have the time then could you check
this but ALSO, confirmed by Devs that "raid exo drops in dz are even rarer then the 0.072% chance for normal exos in dz"
Also it's completely unaffected by TL right?
correct, seperate from TL
ill send dm once i find it
Thank you @thorn hedge @molten jetty
Ok
thank Eevee, their data's more accurate
?
Sorry I don't understand what you mean by that
i mean you got the better argument, no?
Very nice
oof
Just missed two zeroes
eh not exactly
Per kill
exotics have a 0.072% of dropping from DZ kills (not raid exo though)
raid exo and bighorn are 0.024% from dz kills instead
Per kill what about the dz box in land marks that's where I get all my exotics
so for all exotic, there's a 0.1% chance to get AN exotic of any type, but in those, only 0.024 are the 2 raid ones?
Read this
exact same as the per kill
1% not bad
target loot is 1% chance for an exotic (NOT raid exos or bighorn as they are NOT in target loot)
1% of 0.072%
Not bad
no
One sec
I'm not understanding azur this is what you sent me lol
in DZ, you get a drop (that is NOT TL, raid exos/ horn are not in TL and that is seperate ).
you have a 0.072% chance of it being an exotics (not raid exo or bighorn)
and also a separate chance of 0.024% of it being raid exo or bighorn.
(both can proc at same time)
Cuz based on that diagram from what you sent, it's a 99 something percent chance of no exo, 0.072% of an exo, but that 0.072% has a 97% chance of dropping another exotic. So there is a 1% of the others dropping
After you get the 0.072% drop chance, the game has to decide which exotic you get from a pool of exotics. For the Dark Zone this pool consists of 34 exotics + the 3 exclusive exotics. With a slightly lower chance to get an exclusive exotic, compared to any of the other exotics. This means that even if you get an exotic drop there is a ~97% chance it's not one of the exclusive exotics and a 1% chance one of the specific exclusive exotics, so a 0.00072% chance per kill to get the specific exclusive exotic you want.
Direct quotation
So it is 0.00072
1st part is correct but the 3 raid ones are not in the same pool, confirmed this later
Okay
So it's in a separate 0.072% pool or
So there's two pools that have a 0.072% drop chance, one of regular exos one of exclusive exos?
i got to do more digging for the 2nd part, thought it was in that post
Ok so different game but theres a item that's has a 1/97mil so I'll take the chances here
yes and no.
1 pool is .072% for all exos (not the raid ones)
seperate pool of .024% for the raid /horn only.
So the chance of each one dropping is .024/3?
yes
no need 😛 but oaky
A funny sketch might be worth tho.
So with perfect luck how many kills will ya need
over 9000!
Not bad
12.5k
Is that just the named enemy in the land mark or just anyone
Yeah
But that's pretty good if you take like any other game with low drop rates like borderlands had some insane drop chance like earlier 1/97 mil
Probably was attainable a different way
Nope
Doubt
perfect hide of terramorphous Only one enemy can drop it kinda unfair because that's perfect parts
I do have a clan member who got the EB from the DZ, he still hasn't run DH either.
If I wanna farm for SMGs and chose a Stronghold with increased loot availability for SMGs to do so, does increased difficulty also increase the chance of getting the loot drops?
Higher diff and directives do increase your chance at getting targeted loot.
I know it annoying to hear just play countdown for stuff like that
Allright, thank you
Is it possible to do a Legendary Stronghold with randoms players?
Yes
okay nice
Skill build if you want to solo
Good to know, thank you!
Could someone give me regulus pls
i'll give ya one for tree fiddy
Raid project exclusive
So people can't drop it
no people cannot drop regulus for you
only if they get it as a boss drop in the raid (which is a pretty tiny chance)
you can get regulus as a boss drop?
ok i was in shock 💀
I've seen it reported (more than once, by experienced raiders) that it can drop (once you have the blueprint) from the IH raid bosses only, but it's a tiny chance
yeah it can definitely drop as a boss drop but the chance is so minuscule youre better off just doing the project
saw somebody drop theirs after fieser
The regulus..?
yep
after completing the project and having regulus it has an obscenely small chance to drop from iron horse bosses
Need to see it to believe it
Id need to see the part at the bottom that says now it's obtained
wdym at the bottom
When you scroll to the bottom of the weapon menu it says how you got it
Regulus can be dropped by a raid boss, I myself had it drop from Morozova
Do you have a photo or anything
Sorry mate but I still can't believe it without the actual thing saying shared on it
Bruh
you literally have video proof of it happening on gray lol
^
aight blud
Have heard multiple times that regulus can drop from IH bosses once you have crafted it. Has not happened to me, but it has happened to others. No need to prove anything to anyone, especially Eevee….
My 1st Regulus was gifted to me by a friend in the first few months of IH. Dropped for her on Grey. (See "Looted" at the bottom)
Et voilà
If you have crafted a Regulus, give that Regulus to a 2nd character. Then the character that originally crafted the Reg has a [very small] chance of it dropping on an IH boss.
ok i can believe this lol
Damn. The regulus is no joke
Waveform is Awesome @rain echo
nice
Yeah love my Regulus
What you think, Waveform vs
Minus the recal of the stats
How can I see what difficulty I am playing on right now?
top left of screen
Ah, thank you!
How do I unlock the Legendary difficulty for Roosevelt Island? Can't select it somehow
waveform better than improvised. chances are you already have high haste
Lol found out you can switch between Invaded or not :D and there is no Legendary invaded
yeah there isnt
unless you consider tidal basin invaded
east of west tidal basin.
once you get there, rotate 360 degrees
Yeah I tested it Waveform dev best
Wonder if anyone has mad a cav build yet
jeez this crosshair
Is the death edict decent or useless
I feel like that comes a lot from the fact that it’s a rifle
There are better options for rifles
yeah you use it like an m1a
Why did my brain think you meant an m1 abrams
Though I do gotta admit the design looks nice
dread edict is an mmr not rifle
yeah, but it plays like a rifle
svds dont play like rifles imo
I still don't get why they don't call rifles snipers smh
because snipers arent 200rpm?
personal opinion ig. not good on hh builds
hh is for manuals not semi autos imo
lol, thats why i say it plays like a rifle
Deck I finally got a c7 with dttooc
very nice
Now comes the fun part optimizing and putting strained on it
i just cant consider all SVDs as rifles
finally god damn
lol
@dire silo you can have one of mine, i had like 10 lol
how do i effectively use the P-017 launcher?
you sit behind cover and hope the enemy stays visible for long enough
but they roll/i eat shit and die due to the rocket deciding to go into my cover
so im supposed to stay in the open to fire it?
just dont blindfire it
i have no idea why ANYBODY would blindfire a damn rocket
Oh my god a whole week! lmao🤣😆😂
i did that mission w coyote in it like a million times
you should've used a coyote to boost chances of coyote smh
the drop rates are too damn low
just spawn one in
PSA: do not capture wild animals, they will not alter drop rates
real talk, i'll 100% loose a hand just to pet a coyote
i almost got to pet a wild fox
i took a really awesome photo of the fox tho
They have boosted all the drop rates with the introduction of targeted loot. You have no idea what it used to be like. You guys got it easy….
@amber maple I had a girl name robin land on me one time too
still too low
im quickly becoming lord of the flies robins
5% isnt that bad
did it happen in china?
@amber maple Big trouble in little china man, always
should've added the nets to china town 😔 ✊
lol
Are u trying to get coyote mask?
yea but i got one now
where is it¿¿
Nice
You gotta wander around and find the diamond icon its hella annoying
You also gptta turn some valves and switches
I got the settlement up but wally is nowhere to be seen
The rates went from terrible to bad
finally got that D50 high end. got it on 10th floor summit
thanks for the tip people
HI guys,,,, since there is no more voice chat on this sever, do you know if there is another new one?
there is a community server that is providing that now, most of the players are over there on their VC's. if you search division 2 with the search for servers funtion in discord then you will find it, or there are also links to it on the reddit
What is this yellow icon?
It means hardcore character
Yup
When you get bored enough of the regular game it gives you something new to farm for and a bit more tension
got a question.. just bought the game.. played like an hour.. game crashed.. went to reload game.. game only loads to 20% before closing out. Anybody got an idea how to fix this?
Restart computer maybe?
Does D2 really crash that much for y’all on pc?
It's more of a person to person thing. I usually don't crash much at all.
It is an ongoing problem for a lot of people. Some people will crash never, some once a month, some once a week, some once a day, and some every hour. The cause isnt known but a lot of people are trying to figure it out and there are a bunch of "fixes" out there but most wont do much for any of the heavy crashers. The devs are aware and are trying to figure it out.
Wouldn’t D1 crash a lot too? I just remember it had a lot of issues as well
D1 doesnt crash nearly as much for people, but i cant imagine it is completely immune to crashing.
those mid-survival run crashes 😢
at least better than crashing after 3 hr in descent 🥲
true, since survival had barely any rng at all (only spawn location really)
so it wasn't like a "good run" was hard to come by
also Survival is better than descent in every way i look at it
truth, survival was indeed amazing. def could've used some improvements (just to keep it new/fresh) but was great.
if you want infinite wave fight there is resistance which is funny sometimes due to hide and seek part
i once hid from npc like nearly entire wave nearly just to not spawn them🤣
yeah, survival could've just used a slight bit of rng/rotation to caches/loot boxes just to keep agents on their toes, other than that it was nice.
and yeah, resistance was a gas at times how u could do that, lol
my best is wave 37
that wave becomes a bullet hog 2 striker 1 sentry dump bullet at max sentry buff and it really doesn't seem to die
is it true that emperess bluprint is locked out since it was an season reward?
Go into your crafting bench and select one of the blueprints, on the right it'll show you where to obtain them. I wasn't there for the season but I've got them. Most bps from past seasons went into CP loot boxes tho. I'm still missing belstone gear blueprints and a tiny bit of other stuff.
hmm emperess dosent even show in my crafting bench :S
not exactly. Past seasons blueprints did NOT go into CP loot pool, they went into nemesis loot pool from descent
that said though, BP rewards from nemesis is random and low chance too sadly
that sucks well most blueprints are not worth it their rolls are horrible most of the time
and also countdown Exists
except for few dz exclusive
well, crafting loot rolls are challeneging difficulty, so still decent, good for chest/ backpack parts and rare named ones
correct rolls >>> roll quality, for chest and backpack slots especially
yeah but rng is there too same as cd
yes and no, depends on the item
you have to remember about mats before crafting like yahl
also crafting is just using the extra mats you already collect 😛
holy, im impressed ,who made this desicion
i wanted a dh chest with chainkiller or wh/hsd any 2 would suffice crafted till dh mats became exhausted Didn't get one than cd got in 3-4 runs
i meen i love this game. but some of the decision the make is like they dont play there own game
biggest example xp nerf for activities why not same xp for all activities and using math to show that they buffed xp
yeah and why give more xp to something that takes 3 min and like countdown who takes 15-20 min gives less lol
What about all the blue prints that dropped out of CP boxes as an item? What was that about then?
also propaganda broadcast exists why do they even exists as a activity
that was a bug i got mine too
i dropped uzina and umbra missed the season so no blueprint
For me they were all old season blueprints I wasn't around for.
same but only 3 gears were bugged to drop from cps
blueprints that come from CP is its own old system (these are ALL listed in the crafting bench too FYI)
umbra uzina and brazos
but none of them dropped from chests all cp blueprint were rewarded
I mean I ended up getting like 40-50 new blueprints out of the deal.
only got 12
wait are you saying the CP chest now drops blue prints?
🤣 🤣
Yeah it'll drop on the ground like an item, I've already gotten as many as I'll get now tho.
yeah it dropped i got the one i didn't have
What does it mean if looted stuff has a recalibrate icon on the talent
hmmmm thats a new change then
wasn't this patch (start of this season) just season 9, 10, and 11 blueprints? to the CP pool....and they said the remaining ones will be a diff patch later on (or did that second patch already take place)
ohh, i missed that part. thought it was put into descent like the other ones
don't remember which patch it was i got the blueprints thats all does matter
yeah, just saying there should be more blueprints coming soon too (if not added already) for the much older seasons as well missing blueprints
so no need to grind blueprints from descent?
those are different
i haven't gotten belstone blueprint
good graceous
descent is for named blueprints
gah
that would be nice trade them for exo 100 exo = 1 named blueprint
the CP pool is for non-named old season blueprints IIRC (but not all are added yet i don't think)
hmm well okay. per patch notes, lots of bugs and issues for extra blueprints dropping from CPs... soooo unsure atm if intended lulz.@blazing timber
it was one of those things where they talked about it in the stream but not sure if it made it into the actual patch notes. (prior to fixing bugs of unintended stuff dropping)
should never have fixed it we might get regulus drops in lz👀
Yeah I think you could decon the blueprints and they fixed that. Otherwise yeah I didn't really see much info on it and was wondering cause I've still got a little bit of old season content to get blueprints for.
i mean also stuff like this in recent patches
"Fixed the issue with the Electrique Gear Brand Set blueprint dropping from level 4 Control Points supply rooms."
me too
so atm. um blueprints from CPs are bugged, but in favor of players 🤣 farm away i guess (they are dropping more BPs then they should pretty much)
Anyone able to post a screen shot of doc Home talent please, i was told it maybe wrong on the spreadsheet
are there any other raid exclusive items that arnt exotics?
yes, just crafting blue brints for some of the gear sets.
there ya go
Thanks!
Someone throw up a targeted loot map for me real quick fr
neat
also could you send me pic of weapon mods too
thanks!
@full granite can you send a targeted loot screenshot
like the entire map?
