[wispy merlin]

labeled as "no-armor points" in it

[sudden matrix]

Yeah I know about all those but you are better off just playing smart and dropping HH on a leg hit, I guess if you are in a pinch you could but it's just difficult to get them into a position to shoot those areas with a sniper.

[wispy merlin]

OP was asking about ways to deal with them without HH.

[blazing timber]

he said if you run out of hh or determined

keep scorpio in inventory to deal with anything

@thorn hedge reacting at error 😂

[wispy merlin]

i agree, you can't really shoot those with a sniper, but that's kinda on the player at that point if they can't maintain it. they have to get close and use an m870 preferably. ofc if you have HH or determined anything goes

[blazing timber]

i wanted to type inventory and typed stash instead 😂

you can disable mini gun dog for 2-3 seconds by shooting at the red joints at his leg

that is the best way to deal them at distance with an ar

lmg rifle smg

they take less dmg there but

[wispy merlin]

smg would also work thanks to lots of free crit chance

[limber whale]

Yep was just trying to realize how to play with hh/determined in some situations. Cause sometimes that build varies from “easiest heroic gameplay” to “damn how to clear this room now” lol

[blazing timber]

have a backup weapon determined can bug out sometimes

an ar or a scorpio

to deal with stuff

[wispy merlin]

yeah sorry if i went way too in-depth over it, but the gist is, know your future encounters and don't bring HH if there aren't enough targets for you to get HH from, but there are ways to deal with the situation if push comes to shove

for named enemies... you can't really deal with them without HH without taking some time

[limber whale]

Usually i play it with 2 mmrs - first scopeless and second with scope. But maybe you’re right…

[blazing timber]

using determind you are relying on it too much

have some sort if backup weapon to deal with situations is good

[limber whale]

By the way does using dch+d50 (for example) will brake hh/determined chain or not? If you switch to d50, 1-shot anything with it and switch back to mmr?

[wispy merlin]

it shouldn't

well, as long as you hit the head

[limber whale]

Shot with dch is a guaranteed headshot? Isn’t it?

First one ofc

[blazing timber]

headshot dmg

[limber whale]

So in this specific situation you still need to aim in head even using dch (to not to lose hh/determined buff)?

[foggy needle]

correct

[sudden matrix]

Switching from your determined gun will get rid of determined, now if swapping one determined to another does that it should but this is div.

[foggy needle]

hh/determined require headshot kills and DCH only gives headshot damage (not the same thing).

[bold fulcrum]

Is the Rail splitter ever gonna come back to be sold at the DZ vendor's?

[foggy needle]

yes it will, but vendors are RNG

[limber whale]

Damn dch would fit this build so great if not this little difference:/

[foggy needle]

still great even with that difference

[blazing timber]

rail splitter in named caches

[foggy needle]

having pocket nuke is still great. also gives oh shit button and doesnt matter if you hit body in that "oh shit" moment

[bold fulcrum]

oh, wish that we can have DZ named caches that give's us random named DZ exclusive item's here

[sudden matrix]

Named caches yo

[blazing timber]

we have conflict caches

[sudden matrix]

Named caches have all named items including the DZ ones, well not ALL but almost everything.

[foggy needle]

yea but conflict caches require...doing conflict 🤢

[blazing timber]

ik 😅

[bold fulcrum]

exactly, and im not going in where the meta user's and sweat's go to

[blazing timber]

u can farm countdown for named caches

[bold fulcrum]

that and there's also the event active too right now

[blazing timber]

also why the f*k 3 vendors are selling relic

it should be kenly collage exclusive

[sudden matrix]

Aw sick I need a bunch of relics.

[blazing timber]

lmafao why?👀

[civic lily]

expertise

[bold fulcrum]

cause he's a lefty and wat's a relic to be placed ina museum

[blazing timber]

you don't need to buy it if you play enough

with the drop rate we have

[civic lily]

you also don't need to farm for hasburg unicorns

for a HH build

[blazing timber]

it is a. waste of currency

[blazing timber]

at least it gives some return on investment

[sudden matrix]

Gonna line my stash and mules with them.

[blazing timber]

i need to farm chameleon

[sudden matrix]

Change my name to relic enjoyer.

[blazing timber]

so i can deconstruct them

[blazing timber]

i am gonna change my ign to :game.keeps.loadong or Invisible.NPCs

[abstract condor]

Why is my controller not being picked up? dualsense/ ps5 controller

[thorn hedge]

because windows doesnt like that

[zenith crest]

Is there is a way to lvl world tier after you skip it
(Skipped by mistake 😅)

[loud saddle]

new character? can't go BACK to world tier after you've skipped it

[nimble spruce]

yup, only by starting from scratch (or I guess joining another player who hasn't got there yet)

[zenith crest]

That is really sad I didn't know about world tier so I started nyc right after I finish DC 🥲

[loud saddle]

it's not a HUGE part of the game, just a diff type of leveling for a short period, and adds a little bit to lore and introduction of new faction at that time.

[thorn hedge]

@loud saddle LMAO

[loud saddle]

incursion my ass.... (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

[thorn hedge]

does this mean its gonna be a raid

that they are adding

theres a non-zero chance it is

[loud saddle]

well they said "no more raids" so I guess if current raids are incursions now....then....same style of play? lmfao

[thorn hedge]

honestly im stoked by this mistake

[loud saddle]

you can't be called a liar if you rename all the raids incursions....lol

[thorn hedge]

this could genuinely be a raid that means

[loud saddle]

"see, we told you there wouldn't be another raid"

[zenith crest]

I wanted the targeted loot actually

[thorn hedge]

before kettle says "NUH UH" i can dream

[nimble spruce]

incursions are basically mini-raids, aren't they? (Never played Div1 endgame)

[thorn hedge]

more or less

[loud saddle]

once you complete WONY you can work with the target loot.

[thorn hedge]

i hope to god this is actually gonna be a raid

[nimble spruce]

other than the fact they're scaled for 4 players rather than 8, what other differences are there?

(and will presumably allow matchmaking)

[sudden matrix]

Aren't incursions=4 people raid=8 people. Isn't this how they figure it?

Both include mechanics and are hard?

[zenith crest]

What is that?

[thorn hedge]

im hoping for another raid 🙏

ever since they ditched the outcast raid ive been praying

[loud saddle]

wony is the DLC expansion. once you complete WONY (warlords of new york) then you can have target loot on your map.

[sudden matrix]

So when you say another raid you mean an 8 player mechanically involved gameplay right? And wouldn't an incursion be the same but just 4 player? I mean would either satisfy you tho?

[loud saddle]

nothing satisfies the gaming community....

NOTHING....

[thorn hedge]

yes but raids are more complex afaik

[zenith crest]

With all the activities in the wony cuz I already finished the missions

[thorn hedge]

i prefer the whole 8 players not knowing what the hell they are doing part

[loud saddle]

new mechanic: all 8 players need to press 8 buttons simultaneously. lol....

[thorn hedge]

also is there any actual proof that this next one is gonna be 4 players rather than 8

[loud saddle]

goodluck

[loud saddle]

I think it was mentioned in the stream....but can't remember honestly, i'd have to rewatch it.

[thorn hedge]

nerf enemy difficulty and make both raids 4 player

[loud saddle]

wait, they didn't say 4 players maybe...they just said "more like div1 incursions" or something....again, would have to rewatch it....

[thorn hedge]

SO IT COULD BE ANOTHER RAID :O

[loud saddle]

reading the recap on other server to see if mentioned but they just summed it all up, not great detail

well what's his face said on a stream IIRC, "there wont be any more raids" so take that as you will ofcourse.

[thorn hedge]

as it stands there arent any in the game rn

so i mean

[nimble spruce]

they must have chosen the name 'Incursion' knowing full well that everyone would assume that meant 4-player, there's simply no good reason for deliberately misleading everyone in that way

[thorn hedge]

theres also no reason it should say incursion rather than raid if they werent tinkering with the raids

[nimble spruce]

more likely they just copied some programming across (like with Countdown), renamed the new one to 'incursion' and failed to realise that also renamed the existing ones

[loud saddle]

nb4 copy/paste "oops" coding mistake is all....

fuckin kettle, lol

[nimble spruce]

nb4 KiRRA

[thorn hedge]

they didnt call countdown "raid"

[loud saddle]

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

[thorn hedge]

also theres no programming worth taking across so wtf were they doing lol

[loud saddle]

we just meant they prolly copied an existing raids code/backend for the new incursion, then renamed it....and without knowing so, it renamed the linked old raids too....

[nimble spruce]

not specifically on the map, but it does call it a raid in some places I think (during matchmaking or something)

[thorn hedge]

?

[loud saddle]

cause they did that shit with a bunch of weapons and hence why we have named items dropping like oprah on a giveaway spree, and blueprints that aren't called out correctly....copy/paste is the worst thing they seem to love to do.

[sudden matrix]

Incursions could be 6 people. 2 sub groups of 3.

[nimble spruce]

this sort of thing (I'm sure there are more obvious examples but I rarely play the mode and can't remember what they were):

[limber whale]

Black tusks using flares (skyrockets) if mission is at night time? That’s smth new and looked really awesome.
Anyone knows what missions they are using it or it’s only in camp white oak?

[thorn hedge]

That would be cursed

[main briar]

i dunno actually, i wouldn't mind it. seems like a nice compromise between requiring a full group of 8 and a 'normal' activity

[blazing timber]

i want 4 man missions not 8 man they oughta be drag

with scaling

[boreal nexus]

[civic lily]

agreed

[blazing timber]

you gonna airburst my comment 👀

[thorn hedge]

3 man mission

[blazing timber]

Trinity mission

[thorn hedge]

Id love a 3 player mission where you have to find revive tokens

[blazing timber]

i would love a mode where there is chaos and team work without much complications

[thorn hedge]

That's called raid

[blazing timber]

that's called div1 incursion raids are complex

[thorn hedge]

Dark hours isn't

[blazing timber]

yeah but require good communication

[thorn hedge]

Not really

2nd and 3rd at least

[blazing timber]

you really haven't played div1 incursion

[thorn hedge]

No I haven't

[blazing timber]

than you are not going to understand what i am trying to say

[rugged stratus]

isnt that countdown?

[main briar]

they're basically both to the same degree tbh. a good group can rush through the raids no problem with a minimum of communication, meanwhile in td1 you could clear a heroic incursion in 2 minutes (not an exaggeration) if you had a good group ... in both cases if you didn't you could be there wiping for hours lol.

[blazing timber]

yeah but it feels boring after many runs

i have played clear sky more than cd and i still find it fun

[rugged stratus]

throw on a different build, force a change in your gameplay that way

i suggest an arty build 🤣 youll make lootcifer happy that way

[main briar]

you didn't get burnt out on cs farming for ge credits whenever one was active?

[blazing timber]

no it was fun due to how weird it was

also i had all the gearset

so i didn't consider that farming it was fun same with resistance

[main briar]

lol i guess i can see that

[blazing timber]

i want something with that combo chaos and teamwork in a quad

without getting f*d due to deltas/crashes

[rugged stratus]

question, if im full of proficiency caches and i claim league or ge caches will they goto the mailbox? trying to figure out why i got an opt cache in there

[blazing timber]

i want group system to be like missions where you can invite someone

if someone disconnects

[blazing timber]

yes

or they might ask to empty inventory

[rugged stratus]

nice, more storage then 👍

[blazing timber]

it really depends sometimes

i olayed descent and the reconstruction cache dropped outside because i was full

and some got sent to stash

[main briar]

league & ge rewards are supposed to go to your mailbox if the event expires with rewards left unclaimed, so i'd imagine it would probably be the same thing if you claimed some while the event was active but your cache inventory was full

[rugged stratus]

yeah ill test out to make sure. i usually drop stuff from the optimization caches so those would be handy to save till needed

without wasting the mats

[blazing timber]

i am not sure but the only two conditions are you will not be able to claim it if you are full

or they go to stash

[rugged stratus]

that could be a possibility as well. im almost full so ill test it in a couple levels and see for sure

[main briar]

yup, always a good idea to double-check

[modern iron]

I have returned

need help with identifying a location. Just replayed Jefferson Trade Center mission and there's mention about Black Tusk activity in old Hyena den

where is it on the map?

[loud saddle]

where are you at with game/level? you lvl 40 replaying missions? you doing the world tier grind (invaded missions) at the moment?

[modern iron]

wt4

not invaded mission

it's regular Jefferson Trade Center mission

[loud saddle]

well if in the world tiers then it should've been invaded (the entire world tier missions are all invaded) so you probably unlocked one of the world tier strongholds I would assume but as world tier 4 that would've been awhile ago unless going in different order I guess.

check District Union Arena

[modern iron]

only invaded mission I haven't done is just Tidal Basin, everything else is already done

[fading root]

How do you reroll the attributes on a exotic item?

[hallow raptor]

Reconfiguration blueprint will roll the dice on increasing or decreasing existing attributes….

[modern sparrow]

^ you need to buy the bp from the bp vendor

[fading root]

K thanks

[tidal lark]

Wait in sorry you can switch nades in the fly

[worldly fjord]

does anyone know what the stage 4 for summit combat mastery merit is?

[fading root]

?

[tidal lark]

Ya no idk if it's only in legendary strongholds but I held left on the dpad an I could swap from emp to fragment gurnade

(Nvm didn't see my spelling mistake)

[fading root]

I think you have to go to the inventory to switch between those nades I think

Weird how it let u do it on the fly

[blazing timber]

you can change grenade type on fly by holding G button on pc it is used to throw grenade

[inner tendon]

Just pretend you're carrying a giant bag of 150 guns with you at all times, and there's a side pocket for way too many grenade variants. But it's a special pocket so it only fits certain amounts of each type.

[blazing timber]

we have Doraemon's pocket

[tacit valley]

😂

[rain echo]

Still can't fathom how we fit all the gear and weapons into that small BP

Is there a pocket dimension or something in our backpacks?

What if it's a magic BP

Or we could a wizard/whitch among our ranks

[sudden matrix]

We would have to be magicians of some sorts, look how much we teleport or maybe we are necromancers because we come back to life?

[rain echo]

Wish real life had respawn

[blazing timber]

lmao that would be boring

[rain echo]

You could do dumb shit and do more dumb shit once you respawn

[blazing timber]

that is the point one would not have any fun thing to do our life is like hc character

[rain echo]

If everyone could respawn I'd attempt to get a 30 kill streak 😂

[blazing timber]

why not a century 😂

[rain echo]

Once I hit 5 I call in the UAV😂

[rain echo]

I'd have fun wym

[whole gyro]

is there any easy to do headshot kill for event?

or which faction doesnt have awful helmet on them

[rugged stratus]

determined white death in normal, itll chain body shots and count them as headshots

[sudden matrix]

outcast don't have helmets unless you get a sledge hammer guy.

[whole gyro]

thanks both of you, mantis work as well right? as its the only thing i got

[sudden matrix]

You got a pistol build? I mean you could cheese it if you really want and put on any mmr build with a determined D50 and just lower the difficulty and pop off.

[whole gyro]

i dont have a pistol build, also why determined talent?

[sudden matrix]

You land one headshot and it'll self proc so you can chain headshots shooting people in the body as long as you get a one shot kill via your HH build.

[whole gyro]

i kinda confused, the headshot chain kill is from Determined or other stuff

[sudden matrix]

It's a combination. So head hunters will give you tons of damage if you kill via headshot and determined, after the buff is active, will hit a body shot and count it as a head shot and it'll proc itself. So if you hit for enough damage with whatever gun you are using in a HH build determined will allow you to shoot people in the body over and over and over keeping your HH up as long as you one shot them. Helmets mess this up and robots too, you'll basically drop your HH and determined.

[whole gyro]

so determined is a weapon?

[sudden matrix]

It's a talent on your weapon.

[whole gyro]

this one right?

[sudden matrix]

wtf is that?

This is the talent in question.

[whole gyro]

that why i confused lol, thx for clearing it up

[sudden matrix]

lol idk where you got that from.

So the last bit of the line is where the talent is broken headshot kills aren't supposed to proc the talent but currently it does so yeah make use of it while you can.

[blazing timber]

what talent is that we have a new talent 👀

[junior cave]

Its from division 1. We got another talent in the same name in 2. 😄

[eternal merlin]

how can i farm dz resources?

[blazing timber]

yes i forgot it required 4790 electronics

[limber whale]

Farm items in dz and deconstruct them.

[blazing timber]

in dz by deconstructing contaminated item and extracting them or search dz container each has 1dz resource which doesn't need extraction

[sly glade]

What is this

[blazing timber]

special effects

[blazing timber]

must have been glitches

or some form of texture corruption

[boreal nexus]

lol talent division1

[worldly fjord]

i somehow opened my map in descent and can call for backup

[blazing timber]

nice did someone responded

[worldly fjord]

no i didnt want to risked getting banned in case they havent fixed the xp glitch

i instantly stopped the call

[icy crystal]

Is there anything worth buying at vendors atm?

[static lantern]

Hey people, I just finished new york and got back to DC, I am really confused about gear, like I am DHS level 3 and still get level 40 gear, is that the max?

[foggy needle]

Level 40 gear is the max but of course the gear stat bars that are shown can go up to their max as well (ie a full bar)

[static lantern]

how do I get there? does it depend on SHD level?

Cause going from level to gear score to level is confusing lol

[foggy needle]

SHD levels (aka watch levels) is a seperate system. and you get each watch stat maxed at level 999 and then just get 3 hp every level after that.

[static lantern]

ahh okay, there is so much more to the game than I first belived heh

[foggy needle]

you have to farm for gear (higher difficulty level drops gear with higher on average min roll, but same max rolls)

[static lantern]

ah oki, cheers

[fallow inlet]

@foggy needle long time no see

[static lantern]

is there a way to lower the manhunt dificulty from challenging?

I tried it with 2 other agents and we died right before the end

its the like.. non vil one I think I can word it?

[worldly fjord]

which mission?

[static lantern]

this one, when I pick it up it becomes challenging

and I dont play with anyone

we tried with 3 and failed

I am still on though

[foggy needle]

Anyone know where you leave clan , tried to find it few days before and didnt manage to do so

[worldly fjord]

nice , thanks again

[fierce sable]

Whats the best way to get the mantis. Ive been doing countdown but feel it doesnt drop here

[worldly fjord]

MMR targeted loot

[fierce sable]

Thats what i had, just maybe getting unlucky with the mountain of sacrum imperiums

[worldly fjord]

yeah youre doing it right, just getting unlocky

[fierce sable]

Fair, ill keep at it then

Thx

[nova granite]

How 2 turn off this yellow marking?

[modern sparrow]

besides turning off the ge, i dont think you can

[nova granite]

tbh how 2 turn off ge?

[modern sparrow]

menu > seasons > polarity switch > open(interact) > f to activate/deactivate

the marking indicates which ad you deal more/less damage to. swaps on reload/weapon swap

[sudden matrix]

You can also melee people to switch their polarity.

[whole gyro]

perfect talent is the talent matched with the named gear?

[modern sparrow]

yes

[next perch]

What does it mean in conflict when the someone from the opposing team kills his own member?
It's reflected on the screen.
The logo shows a heart with the unbreakable mark in the heart

[thorn hedge]

You can't team kill

[next perch]

Yeah I realize that but I have seen instances like who killed the other opposing team player and I sometimes see a player on the other team with a heart mark with the ⚡ next to another team player

[thorn hedge]

Id need a pic to understand

[next perch]

I will try to get one

Hope you can make it out 😅

[hollow yacht]

🔎

😂 Im sorry

[next perch]

Well obviously both players are from the opposing team.
And you can see the heart logo between the 2 of them
Been seeing it when I play conflict sometimes
The pic was taken from a YouTube still

[hollow yacht]

Maybe a hacker

Idfk

[thorn hedge]

That looks like the symbol for reviving a downed player

[next perch]

I see
Was always curious as to what it was

[thorn hedge]

It means someone downed the enemy then failed to finish them off

[next perch]

[blazing timber]

[steady terrace]

Its cool dawg i would die for such a thing as apparel

[cloud crane]

if you need help with manhunt i can help 🙂

[static lantern]

will keep that in mind :)

[static lantern]

Is the season pass worth it? like how long dos this season last?

[radiant trail]

Was just about to ask the same thing as I brought it yesterday but can’t find how to access it

[static lantern]

also untop of that, how do I do Roosevelt island again?

[nimble spruce]

Season has maybe 5 or 6 more weeks? If you've already reached season level 100 and like the look of the season pass exclusive skins/apparel then yes, otherwise no.
To replay any mission just go to the mission options and pick your preferred difficulty and directives.

[static lantern]

thanks

[nimble spruce]

To get any rewards from the season pass you must have completed the Warlords dlc, then as you gain season levels you'll get the extra items automatically, and have access to the extra daily mission project.

[thorn hedge]

The skins are awesome this season tbh

[radiant trail]

So essentially I’ve wasted money on something I can’t even use yet? You’d think that in the description it’d say something like you need to have completed something to unlock it but I didn’t see anything

[blazing timber]

well you have time to cash in just hurry or it's going to waste

[nimble spruce]

Yeah, it's a poorly designed system - maybe try raising a ticket with Ubisoft, at best they might refund your credits, at worst they might consider making it more obvious in the future.

[rugged stratus]

they dont refund premium credits, ever.

best bet is to get and roll through warlords, or chalk it up to a loss

[radiant trail]

RIP I best find some mfers to run warlords with asap then how long of the season is left?

[rugged stratus]

not sure but it can be busted out in a couple hours if you push it hard

[blazing timber]

warlod is only gonna take like 5-6 hrs for casual run

[rugged stratus]

calls for backup will bring a couple in to help

[blazing timber]

while enjoying everything

[radiant trail]

Yeah I know but won’t it be easier to run through with people? And tried calling for backup a few times no one ever responds in NYC I get responses on my purely DC character though 🤣

[blazing timber]

yeah if you can find someone it is only a couple if hours

[rugged stratus]

try the #lfg-playstation ask for wony carry. there are a few that dont mind that stuff

[radiant trail]

I’ve put up an lfg but I’m not going to ask for a carry cause if I’m honest not looking for that just generally want some people to run with to make it a bit more enjoyable

[blazing timber]

than just do activities for xp and do matchmaking on missions

your priority is to reach lvl 40 and complete all manhunt campaign

[radiant trail]

Makes sense how long is left of the season by the way think I already asked but can’t see a response?

[blazing timber]

4-5 weeks

[radiant trail]

Oh that’s more than enough time 😭🤦🏽‍♂️🤣

I thought I had like a week

[desert lodge]

How stuffed do i need to be to do raid with ease ?

By that i mean without being a burden while doing raid at 4

[blazing timber]

get a high end dps build and an fi healer build for reference refer pinned spreading n #td2-build-advice

[desert lodge]

Thanks

[regal summit]

What do you mean with doing a raid at 4? With 4 people?

If so, I'd recommend getting experience first, and then slowly lowering the amount of players that you're playing with and getting a group together that you regularly run with so you know how they play.

[blazing timber]

i think he meant at shd lvl4

[desert lodge]

Im mean 4man yeah i only have 2 ppl to play with just need to find a last friend to involve into the div

But i don't have a lot of stuff
A mid Striker build that all

[regal summit]

If you're just starting out, I'd recommend getting a group of 8 together. People who have done 4 mans have had to gain a good bunch of experience to be able to do it. The raid doesn't scale down, so you'll need to be able to do multiple things at once.

Sadly I am on ps, otherwise I could help you find a group, but best of luck to you in finding one

[desert lodge]

Im used to this kind of stuff but not on div tbh and i don't really want to find more ppl
I want to invest enough time to do raids in general with my usual group of pals

[desert lodge]

Dont really lime the ppl there but on xbox we have a lfg included for every games in existence
I should find player there even if they are pretty mediocre

[regal summit]

Experience is a big factor if you want to reliably get through the raids. You can go in and figure it out for yourself, but at this point there's a lot of experience out there so may aswell make use of it.

[wispy merlin]

hey that's pretty good

[inner tendon]

the spelling is still bothering me.
nice backpack, Shame about the blue stat tho.s

[thorn hedge]

how is it a shame, i can reroll it without consequence

[inner tendon]

Then you're stuck with vigilance.
But I can't say that because people worship that talent like all the rest suck.

[blazing timber]

no if you got hsd and handling

it would've been nice

[thorn hedge]

vigilance is good for sniper tho?

[plucky mesa]

Yea it's a great sniper backpack

[inner tendon]

I'm not a fan.
but either way, it's a good backpack.

[thorn hedge]

i prefer it over concussion

more consistent

[blazing timber]

let me show you what a nice pcs is

@thorn hedge see my chest

[thorn hedge]

i dont pvp so is useless to me

How do I make someone bleed?

Also what is weapon rank after you reach 40?

[loud saddle]

shrapnel trap, environmental things such as gas tanks, ridgeways pride chest, uhm.....quite a few ways...stinger hive?

[static lantern]

ahh oki

[loud saddle]

there's quite a few more but I'm not well knowledged in bleed status effects to be able to list more

[static lantern]

my friend needs bleed status to doo his gunner thingy or what it was

[inner tendon]

Once you reach Lvl 40, everything is Lvl 40 from then on.

[static lantern]

ah, but like the guns have different ranks it says

like is this just random?

[fallow inlet]

@static lantern stinger hive works great ,so does seeker mines

[static lantern]

cheers

[nimble spruce]

Proficiency rank is part of the expertise system, it's a little complex to explain but there are some good tutorials around.

[static lantern]

ah oki

So SHD levels have nothing to do with gear?

[fallow inlet]

Look at dm I sent will help

Shd is more for bragging rights

Morning Kettle

[blazing timber]

backup has arrived

[fallow inlet]

@blazing timber lol ok 👍

Hey Gogamer

[blazing timber]

Hi saph what do you think about my new name?👀

[fallow inlet]

To long

[blazing timber]

it was going to be longer i wanted deconstructor had to settle for destroyer

[spark crater]

Lol

[nimble spruce]

Hey Saph

[static lantern]

is it named seeker mine?

also thanks for the dm <3

[thorn hedge]

theres no named skills

also heres my backpack now, lovely

[fallow inlet]

It should say bleed

[blazing timber]

looking better now

[civic lily]

lucky

[elder seal]

what’s the stuff the hunters drop in the start of CD and what is it used for?

[nimble spruce]

optimisation materials

[nova granite]

How 2 fast reach Proficiency Rank 10?

[thorn hedge]

donating resources is the fastest (but most costly) way

[blazing timber]

by playing with u proficient gear donating gear using cd

[rugged stratus]

Along with opt stuff they drop dogtags. These improve final credits payout.

[rugged stratus]

Weapons are the biggest category to proficient . Target those.
Also if you have watch level to burn pour some shd into cash and buy 20 of each named item weekly to donate.
Also craft 20 of each improvised item for donation

[wise pasture]

I have a question about how to farm Control Points... I finish a control point and claim the supply cache, then I reset the world so that I can take it again. But when I go to the supply cache a second time it's already open. Am I doing something wrong here?

[foggy needle]

those CP supply caches reset daily, not when you reset the CP

[wise pasture]

ooh, gotcha

[modern sparrow]

the supply caches take time to reset, but you still get everything else, including a blueprint, if the cp is lvl 3 or 4

[wise pasture]

Running them on 3 kinda comfortably, lvl 4 a little less so. Returning after taking a few months off

[elder seal]

final credits payout? like the credits you get at the end of CD?

[solemn sandal]

Is farming for max gear chc and chd really that rare I’ve been doing cd for a bout a week but nothing drops yet is it a unicorn?

[abstract kindle]

Is KingBreaker better than Dare or what?

[modern sparrow]

RNG will sometimes not play nice but it shouldnt take too long to get a fine roll. you likely wont get exactly what you want, but youll probably just need a recal/some optimization

[tiny stump]

its really just a matter of how much time you put in

[modern sparrow]

picking up all the hunter tags increases the amount of countdown currency you get at the end of it

anywho gamers, does the firewall tac link talent in the firewal special. increase your dmg as well? it only says allies

[wispy merlin]

just allies

[civic lily]

that's where striker shield comes in

[livid token]

is there a way to get the stovepipe chest now if you didn't do the manhunt during s11

[thorn hedge]

I think you can still get it from the mission itself

[livid token]

I completed it but I only got the trophy, not sure where else I can find it

or maybe I have to look somewhere specific

[thorn hedge]

Inspect stovepipes body

If I recall that's how I got it

[thorn hedge]

Wait wdym trophy

[livid token]

oh I gotta go back then lmfao

[livid token]

I got a bp trophy from it

[thorn hedge]

Ah

[thorn hedge]

Damn all those enemies you gotta fight through must be tough

[livid token]

lol

I'm at his body but there's no inspect button, weird

does it have to be specific difficulty or something?

[thorn hedge]

Maybe it's unobtainable now idk

No it's not

It's just an appearance mod anyways

[livid token]

no its not as in its not tied to a difficulty?

[thorn hedge]

It's not

But it's not that much to miss trust lol

Can't be dyed

[worldly fjord]

you have to be within kissing range to inspect

[thorn hedge]

Ok so I was right on how to get it

[livid token]

ambush enemies are dead, I think I inspected beforehand but not in inv

its just the interact key, no?

[worldly fjord]

yeah interact key

[livid token]

looks cool though, I just wanna collect shit lol

[worldly fjord]

did you die and reset?

respawned from checkpoint i mean

[thorn hedge]

Was anyone else terrified of the first few rooms in that mission first playthrough or was it just me

[livid token]

I killed the ambush enemies, I died and backtracked to him and no inspect option

[worldly fjord]

well in that case i guess its already inspected

[livid token]

I'll try again I guess?

[thorn hedge]

Could also try relogging

[worldly fjord]

or just restart mission

[thorn hedge]

Ngl stovepipe looks like a jerk

But then he's not

Until he's dead

ANYWAYS

What do we think the manhunt main mission is gonna be

Bank hq? Descent? Fed bunker?

[livid token]

well I reset it, you have to inspect him to begin the ambush and I got nothing from it

that's really weird

[thorn hedge]

Did you try relogging

[livid token]

relogging after the ambush, yeah

[worldly fjord]

restart it completely

[livid token]

the entire mission? alright

[worldly fjord]

yup

the first part is a walk in the park

get it

[livid token]

I relogged, reset the mission, ran through until I inspected him, killed all the enemies and I still do not have it

I have absolutely no idea what the problem could be lol

[worldly fjord]

have the vest?

[livid token]

I checked appearance on my chestplate, no vest

[worldly fjord]

did you run the entire thing already

[livid token]

yeah once, I did it on normal

[worldly fjord]

and also the white house attack at the end?

[livid token]

the mission doesn't include the white house attack does it?

[worldly fjord]

i think it does

[livid token]

I'll redo it, last time I finished it I left the mission but it just took me back to the white house

[wise pasture]

What do I do if the brandset I'm looking for isn't in the daily targeted loot rotation?

[livid token]

you can play countdown or summit with targeted loot

[wise pasture]

I didn't know you could pick the targeted loot in those modes

[thorn hedge]

Yes you can

[worldly fjord]

would be kinda pointless if you couldnt tbh

[worldly fjord]

any luck?

[livid token]

in the middle of an iron horse atm, I'll redo it after and see if I missed the latter half of the manhunt

[livid token]

just redid the whole mission and departed to DC via the extraction... didn't send me into the second half and still no chestplate

[worldly fjord]

weired, wanna group up and do it in my session, maybe makes a difference?

[livid token]

sure, we can try that

user id is MidMoogle

[worldly fjord]

just sent it

[livid token]

odd, didn't receive anything in my inbox

ah, there we go

[blazing timber]

💀

[livid token]

thought he sent a friends invite lol

[blazing timber]

you can simply sent a invite by /invite playername

[worldly fjord]

which is what i did

[livid token]

yeah ik

[blazing timber]

but depends on player privacy settings

[fading root]

Good st elmo build

?

[worldly fjord]

#td2-build-advice

[nova granite]

In striker build for secondary weapon, what would I prefer?

1. Kingbreaker
2. A C R
3. Dark Winter

[worldly fjord]

acs12 for stacking up

[nova granite]

acs12 ?

[worldly fjord]

forgot the name of the named version

rock n roll

[nova granite]

Oh..

[worldly fjord]

kingbreaker with technician spec is a good primary

[inner tendon]

@nova granite The named version of it doesn't actually matter that much, as long as you have the base gun itself you'll be 100% fine.
aa12/acs12 whatever it's called ingame.

It can actually be better in a lot of cases.

[rugged stratus]

yes

[blazing timber]

wish we had friendly fire, negotiator will than become good in pvp

[worldly fjord]

imerium had friendly fire, literally.

[blazing timber]

yeah but after like scoping in for some time and than had to kill someone

[worldly fjord]

but possible

[static lantern]

How do you photograph hostiles?

[steady terrace]

Play in team . Hide in cover and start photomode duh

[hollow yacht]

“Duh…”

[echo orchid]

I’ve been trying to get the Sacrum imperium because I missed last update, and I for the past month I couldn’t find or get it anywhere. Any tips for getting it or is it a one time only item

[blazing timber]

it is an uber trash mmr just for collecting purpose farm targeted loot Sniper in countdown

[craggy nova]

Is there hunter masks with covered ears in base game?

Or all of them have exposed ears?

[inner tendon]

IIRC the one from Coney has a beanie on top, which might hide the ears.

[craggy nova]

Wow, thanks you!

[craggy nova]

Coney?

[inner tendon]

Coney Island Manhunt has 1 extra Hunter in it, it drops a mask.
spoilers I guess.

called "Deceit".

[craggy nova]

Extra masks are always good, great to have at least one with beanie before the dlc

[inner tendon]

There's also the Stinger/Covert Hunter clothing set from the store (Stinger is also available via the friend referral system),

[fallow inlet]

Hey Gogamer, Vsvm, Rivens

[hollow nova]

How exactly is the availability of Enforcer supposed to work? I have one for the account that I received the first time I completed WONY at launch. Rumors of it dropping in DZ's blah, blah. I have yet to see another one from additional WONY playthroughs or anywhere else.

[blazing timber]

enforcer is super 90 with perfect pummel i think ?

it is the reward for having the ultimate edition i think

[hollow nova]

Yep WONY preorder. Nasty shottie.

[blazing timber]

coz i have one

[blazing timber]

check your stash you can only have one per ubi account iirc

and i don't if it is farmable in dz

[hollow nova]

That's what I imagined. I don't believe it's ever been it any loot pool and it's account locked in some manner.

[blazing timber]

just like lvl1 merciless

[hollow nova]

I have Lullaby and Merci too.

[civic lily]

i don't think enforcer even has third attribute tho

[hollow nova]

It has two. But the semi-auto, damage model, and ability to breachload and interrupt the reload animation is priceless. All with a splash of Perfect Pummel.

[blazing timber]

if it has dttoc than it will be best shotgun for dps shotgun build because how powerful perfect pummel and super 90 is as a shotty

[rugged stratus]

#lfg-playstation or matchmake into countdown (target bags or shotguns) and buy exo caches, you can buy an exotic cache every 2 runs on challenging

[hollow nova]

^This. I pulled a Momento, Ninja bike, and Acosta in one run last night.

[rugged stratus]

hell yeah

[rugged stratus]

just gave another nemesis away, then had a sacrum drop right after.. cd has actually been pretty decent for dropping exotics

[digital chasm]

Perfect Shock and Awe or Perfect Tech Support?

For an explosive build

[sudden matrix]

Mortar or seeker spam?

[digital chasm]

Or combined arms

Both

[sudden matrix]

It really depends, IF you are shooting and keeping up capacitor then combined arms, if you are using seeker spam I'd go perfect tech, if it's mortar I'd go perfect shock and awe.

[civic lily]

Perfect shock an awe isn't much more helpful from regular shock and awe

[digital chasm]

Combined?

[civic lily]

idk

[sudden matrix]

It's just it's a china light backpack so ez to get one.

[digital chasm]

Right yeah I have it just wondering

[sudden matrix]

It really depends on your build and playstyle tho.

[civic lily]

I use shock because applying a status is easy for this build

[digital chasm]

Gotcha thx

It’s severely lacking in weapon dmg

Although I know that’s not the purpose

It just feels useless

[sudden matrix]

Shock and awe is gonna give you less but you don't need a kill to proc it, combined arms you need to be shooting all the time pretty much and will tech you have to get a kill for it to proc.

[digital chasm]

Doing regular content

Weird is it possible to do aoe weapon dmg?

[wispy merlin]

regulus

[sudden matrix]

Regulus

[wispy merlin]

kek

[digital chasm]

I need this in my life

A shame I’ll never have

[civic lily]

run d50 determined in the meantime

[digital chasm]

What’s that

[civic lily]

d50 with the determined talent

d50 has the second highest base damage in pistols

[digital chasm]

Oh..

Does Striker hit harder than this?

[wispy merlin]

yes

all that build has going for it is rpm

[rugged stratus]

this is what i use. youll be stackin cap most of the time to keep the buff so its a non issue and most damage (perfect combined arms)

[digital chasm]

It’s insane

[digital chasm]

What named bag is that?

[wispy merlin]

force multiplier, hana-u

[rugged stratus]

👆

[digital chasm]

Desent?

Saw this on Reddit

Basically replace the bag w combined then

[thorn hedge]

This has so many problems

Wait nvm

[digital chasm]

Like no health? Lol

[thorn hedge]

Wait no

[thorn hedge]

Obliterate

That is 100% a slap-together build

[digital chasm]

Oh?

[thorn hedge]

A talent that relies on critical hits lmao

[civic lily]

grupo sombra for the explosive damage

[digital chasm]

Right that’s what gets me

[thorn hedge]

Not gonna lie just run hard wired for this shit

Much much much better uptime

[civic lily]

Hard wired with mortar turret?

[thorn hedge]

Yes lol

Pisses people the hell off in pvp

[sudden matrix]

You don't have as much damage as the best of the best mortar build but I feel like seeker spam makes up for it.

[thorn hedge]

Yeah

Consistency over big number

[sudden matrix]

As for pvp idk don't really pvp

[civic lily]

tbh I'm already spamming seekers well enough with all these skill haste attributes

[digital chasm]

Oh hell no

[thorn hedge]

Large damage, sit behind cover, great uptime, and staggers

[civic lily]

idk about pvp

[thorn hedge]

And don't forget AOE too

[civic lily]

5/6 of my armor has skill haste

[thorn hedge]

I've done 1v4s with it against like level 10 manhunts

Keep in mind I rarely pvp

I just run 4 hardwired all rolled skill damage, wyvern vest with glass cannon, and strategic alignment

[digital chasm]

So hard wired would be less dmg though no?

From what this person was saying on Reddit

He had mathematical charts and everything lol

[thorn hedge]

But better uptime

[digital chasm]

Interesting

[thorn hedge]

It's what we ran back in the day

[rugged stratus]

is that for seeker spam?

[digital chasm]

Yes

[thorn hedge]

Or mortar uptime whichever floats your boat

[rugged stratus]

mortar cooldown for me is around 10 seconds or so on highend

[digital chasm]

Same

[thorn hedge]

0 for me with hard wired

[digital chasm]

Back or chest or neither?

[rugged stratus]

but mortar is a good trigger for feedback loop since its quickly back

[thorn hedge]

Neither

[digital chasm]

Damn

[thorn hedge]

You can use it either way

[civic lily]

damage or haste on hw?

[rugged stratus]

i would trigger feedback with seekers

[thorn hedge]

Damage

Haste is irrelevant

[civic lily]

k

[rugged stratus]

so far that 2 nemesis given away today 😅

[digital chasm]

So I was using EMP sticky the other day with seekers and it’s really fun..is that it’s own build?

[thorn hedge]

Why emp sticky on skill build

[digital chasm]

Cause fun

[thorn hedge]

How tho

[digital chasm]

It was fun watching g them stagger

[thorn hedge]

Doesn't help kill them though

[digital chasm]

No

[thorn hedge]

And the cooldown doesn't help at all

[digital chasm]

Like I said it was just something I was playing with

[thorn hedge]

I'm just saying it's kind of counterintuitive

[rugged stratus]

better on a status build, itll at least spread that way

[digital chasm]

Would you need creeping?

[rugged stratus]

no status eclipse will spread on death

[digital chasm]

Ok

[rugged stratus]

creeping eclipse is also decent when you just cc and dont need the damage

like foam builds

[wispy merlin]

very good in leg, foam for people, emp pchoom for minitanks and dogs

[digital chasm]

Hey Local, Eevee

[fierce sable]

So im wondering is there no way to optimize gear mods like the gear skills on armor

[loud saddle]

you can't optimize mods, no.

[fierce sable]

Thought so thx

[rugged stratus]

Good afternoon Saph

[fading root]

How long does it usually take to get level 100 shd?

[blazing timber]

depends on your farming rate in about 7 hrs you should be able to get to it

assuming 14SHD/hr

[fading root]

What would you be farming to get so many shd lvls per hr

I’m trying to help my friend get to a higher lvl

[inner tendon]

Activities are pretty great right now, anything that involves rescuing people, either executions or hostages. Make sure you have Directives active and play on at least Challenging.
Completing the Bounties that you get from them helps too, free keys are a nice bonus.

[fading root]

I have been doing activities with my friends on heroic with 4 directives but I did not get 14 levels or really close to that in a hour

I got around maybe 8 or 9 in a hour

[thorn hedge]

Depends if you're just slow

[dense basalt]

if you're playing with friends you really should be leveling up fast

[inner tendon]

Speed comes with practice, just keep on getting better over time.

[fading root]

I mean I’m the highest level out of my friends and it might be that they don’t have great stuff

Like it’s all pretty easy for me but they always die

Then one of my friends blames it on me

[blazing timber]

make one guy run foam and another d50 determined with headhunter

and it will do wonders for you in heroic d50 with determined is good for 2 player scaling

[fading root]

Ok

Thank u

[blazing timber]

also run outcast and true sons public execution/propaganda since they have nearly zero chances of helmet enemies

[fading root]

Alright

[boreal nexus]

3-4hrs 🤣

[blazing timber]

lol pro players👀

[wispy merlin]

just like you

imagine one shotting dua boss

[blazing timber]

i am just an above avg player

[wispy merlin]

yeah yeah yeah

[blazing timber]

imagine nearly soloing zoo legendary

[fading root]

Another question, why do I feel like I finish the activities quicker by myself than with more people?

[rustic nymph]

enemies health/armor scales according to how many people are in your group

[fading root]

Ok that makes sense

[undone granite]

How I find the 20 rounds magazine for AR

[dim crag]

Blueprint from CP3/4

[undone granite]

All the control point ?

[inner tendon]

Yep.
If you check the Crafting Table, there's a location listed of where to farm for certain things.

[elder seal]

what’s the 20 round mag for the AR called

[worldly fjord]

sturdy extended

[rain echo]

Every DPS build with an AR needs the 20 extended round mag

[thorn hedge]

this hurts

[rugged stratus]

need to farm more 🤣

or roll repair skills off and use tech

[thorn hedge]

nope i deconstructed

[blazing timber]

i have god rolled one👀

[thorn hedge]

k

[tribal marlin]

@thorn hedge

[thorn hedge]

scroll down

[tribal marlin]

stupid lol

[rugged stratus]

you have the blueprint for it, right?

[thorn hedge]

out of mats

[rugged stratus]

unacceptable 🤣

[thorn hedge]

the brand set mats

[rugged stratus]

luckily it doesnt take a lot of crafts to get a decent set of rolls. unlike when you need red rolls and hh on the chest anyways

[plucky mesa]

I think i crafted mine.

[nocturne valley]

how do i get these stars?

[nimble spruce]

activate global event from the seasons menu, then do the challenges and gain levels

just make sure you read the details about how the event works, or you'll find it frustrating

[nocturne valley]

ah

[trail oracle]

Question for everyone. I thought that if I got the St. Elmo's Engine and got it to level 7 expertise it would keep that for every one of the st elmos engines I have. Recently scored a god rolled one with dtooc. I have both in my inventory now and the new one is jsut at 1 because I just upgraded it, but the other is at 7.

[fading root]

Then level up the god rolled one

[trail oracle]

I am doing that now. I was just under the impression that if I was at 7 and picked up a 2nd one then both of them would be at 7. That's all. I guess that is not the case.

[blazing timber]

no

[trail oracle]

Thanks everyone. A bit of a bummer but I understand now.

[safe wren]

Question: is broken wings pass only available after you get to level 30 or can I unlock the free items right away while playing campaign?

[trail oracle]

For season pass you have to get past the new york expansion

Then you get the free items as you go about the game leveling up.

[static dew]

does anyone have a spreadsheet for all the exotics and where to get them?

[trail oracle]

This is not mine, but I got it from a reddit post. It has links at the top for categories. one of them is exotic drop locations and chances. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vTJEX5DerCvOj3a_m36TRy1gPBAUvrduOIdmXI9j1Y0MpQk1wIXaZ9KOcPa7HzXzp_N5qGmjDj6yEfL/pubhtml#

[static dew]

yea thats the one I was looking for thank you

[trail oracle]

np

[safe wren]

You mean the map for the campaign?

Isnt that Washington?

[blazing timber]

no new york

it's part of expansion

reach lvl 40 than get reward

[safe wren]

Got it. Thanks

It sounds like I won't make it in time. Should I boost to 30 to get to 40 sooner maybe?

[peak ember]

Is there a way to set preference on what shoulder you fire from?

[mighty pewter]

Did they fix the crash issues or still ongoing?

[wind garden]

No. Still ongoing.

[livid token]

you have like 6 weeks of the season left lol

[safe wren]

@livid token am I gonna lose out anything substantial if I just boost to 30?

I expect what you earn till level 30 are useless anyway.

I've finished the campaign before on another platform.

So I don't really care for the story again.

[livid token]

not necessarily

you auto complete the campaign and all side missions, but thats honestly more of a benefit unless you're looking to do them for story related whatever

you basically auto finish all of DC then it teleports you to NY with some lvl 30 starting gear and until you finish the NY campaign you can't go back to DC anyway

[safe wren]

Sweet thats what I was thinking too. Just thought maybe I'd lose out on some kind of crafting blueprint or something similar.

[livid token]

no real loss in just skipping, that's what I recommend unless you care about the DC campaign

[livid token]

nah pretty much everything is still available to you

[safe wren]

Got it. Thanks.

[livid token]

I skipped and I don't think I've missed out on anything substantial at all

[safe wren]

Sweet. Thanks man. That'll save me some time. I just wasn't sure.

[livid token]

you still gotta do exotic quests and control points for bps and stuff but thats it

[livid token]

yeah np, NY campaign doesn't take too long either and it's just faster that way than doing everything manual

I played the game on xbox back when it came out and this time around I just skipped everything and its still very fun/nothing of value was lost

[safe wren]

Makes sense

Thank you!

[mighty pewter]

I see, thanks for the reply

[turbid haven]

where in ubisoft connect do I get the weekly rewards? 😐

[fierce sable]

How different is the raids in discovery vs normal besides matchmaking

[balmy sierra]

I'd say the difference between discovery and normal is different. Some expectations on knowing what to do and having appropriate builds. Just let the group know if it's your first time and they will walk you through it usually. 🙂

A good DPS build is all you need as a first timer.

[fierce sable]

I just ran through a DH on discovery and was wondering. Thx tho

[nimble spruce]

On discovery difficulty, enemies are weaker, some mechanics are missing, and you don't get any of the exclusive loot. It's not really worth running imo.

[fading root]

Best lmg?

Asking for a friend

[fierce sable]

I just wanted to run through it and see the raid

[fallow inlet]

@fierce sable do it on normal and have more fun

I normally run both the IHand DH raids just to team up with friends and help new people

@fading root I like big show or newer gevv

And yes its spelled wrong

Kettle help please and HEY

And hey Local

[tidal lark]

Question is it possible to get 2 reds to drop on the lavoisier bag?

[wispy merlin]

yes

[wary sandal]

So i just got to world tier 5 and like a million things unlocked, did i beat the main game? Or is there further stuff to do in dc or should i head to NY

[tidal lark]

Did u complete the last stronghold?

[wary sandal]

Tidal basin?? Yeah but it reinvaded capital and tidal again, do these just infinitely replenish now??

Last thing i did was secure the barrel dogs and kill wyvern

[tidal lark]

Ok so you can go to new York your done with dc but yudal basin will always respawn every Tuesday you don't have to redo it but you can if u want to

[wary sandal]

Alright thanks!!! Do you reccomend getting my gear level up to 500 before going? Its at about 425 with no specific build

[tidal lark]

Once you go to New York you'll be lv 30 an than you'll get shd lvs after 40

[wary sandal]

Alright sounds good

[fallow inlet]

@wary sandal unless your a completionist then goto 515

For the commendation

[subtle kelp]

I still don't understand about new gears: Cavalier

[inner tendon]

What don't you understand about it specifically?

Charged – While fully charged, gain immunity to any movement speed debuff and share this with all of the agents hazard protection and the incoming skill damage with all allies for 10 seconds.
After Charged is consumed, Charging buff will resume if still in combat and out of cover!"```

[subtle kelp]

All of it

Sooo this one looks like erm..

Tank / Healer same time?

[worldly fjord]

more of a team support with hazard protechtion

[mellow trout]

Out of curiosity does the season pass pay for itself

[worldly fjord]

no

you dont get any premium credits from it

[mellow trout]

I see

[inner tendon]

It's best to think of the Season Pass more as a "I like shiny things". Because that's all it is: shiny things.
Shiny skins for your gun, shiny clothes, shiny dye's for your clothes, shiny mask, etc.

[worldly fjord]

in some games like cod(?) when you finish the battle pass, you earn enough premium currency to purchase the pass in next season. div2 isnt like those games i guess

you basically have to spend 10 bucks each season, where in those game its just once. (assuming you dont spend money on anyhting else)

[inner tendon]

Correct, kinda like the SWTOR mmo is (was?). Div2's Season Pass is more of a supporter pack, with some excess keys/caches thrown in.

[hollow yacht]

Is heartbreaker any good for pve?

I wanna simple and fun build for lmgs

[rugged stratus]

Heartbreaker is like an underpowered striker, but to get your stacks your enemies have to be pulsed while you're hitting them.
Kinda locks you to tech class and linked laser that pulses enemies. Gun needs a long underbarrel to accept the laser

[elder seal]

why when i match make for a legendary mission from the map that it only match makes for the one i’m closest to instead of all of them?

[rain echo]

i love SWTOR such a good game even all these years later its my most played game with over 2500 hours

[earnest scroll]

I'd argue lmgs are rather bad for heartbreaker because you want technican spec and some blue cores anyway and then you'd naturally want a shield which doesn't work with lmgs.

I guess you could maybe justify run a non technican pure red heartbreaker with scanner pulse/drone and the perfect flatline Lmg but at that point you're just playing a worse striker with a suboptimal weapon class

[hollow yacht]

I’ll figure out what I can do

[rugged stratus]

well, there's a few components 🤣

[hallow raptor]

Never enough…

[rugged stratus]

never 🤣

[plucky mesa]

Upgraded my elmos to lvl 20. So many mats!

[hallow raptor]

Did that as soon as I got my first one reconfigured to dttooc…

[plucky mesa]

Yea it's worth doing if you have the mats

[rugged stratus]

It's the 20->23 that really kills mats

60 more exo for that 3%

[plucky mesa]

F that

[thorn hedge]

i have my reviver at 23

[rugged stratus]

Why 😅

[thorn hedge]

im not joking its saved runs before

[civic lily]

right

[rugged stratus]

Is it just range

[thorn hedge]

yes

[civic lily]

revive hive range

[thorn hedge]

range = increased throwing distance (because aoe bigger)

[rugged stratus]

I mean if it's on you, then you dont need the range tbf

[civic lily]

🧠

[thorn hedge]

teammates go down in legendary fuck do u do

[rugged stratus]

Let em lie there 🤣

[civic lily]

solo it

[thorn hedge]

point proven

[rugged stratus]

I dont really think anything is worth the investment to 23. Tbh

20 is my max for a select few items

[wispy merlin]

only things i got to 20 are regulus, scorpio and famas

purely for speeds

[cedar yacht]

flex

[wispy merlin]

kek

next up is six12 which i plan to also get to +20

[blazing timber]

forgot m870 👀

[wispy merlin]

oh yeah forgor

[lusty falcon]

helped out a friend with their first playthrough on div 2 and now my loot is dropping at their level, even if i’m not in their session. anything i can do to change that?

[blazing timber]

tried restarting game

[lusty falcon]

yes, issue occurred yesterday. noticed it today

[blazing timber]

try changing server by going to dz

if it double loads means you have changed server

[thorn hedge]

What level is it dropping at specifically

[craggy nova]

Will i skip all of the story's eliminations too after using the boost?

[gloomy portal]

I don’t know if I’ve done something wrong but in War lord’s of New York, I managed to skipped like 4 of the set-ups (2 from different people). What am I doing something wrong?

[fallow inlet]

Hope Everyone's having a great gaming day

[torn tangle]

ive been away for a month or 3.. (ish). Is there a new "sheet" with best builds for solo ect?

[rugged stratus]

Check the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice
It's up to date

[wise pasture]

Do new exotics get released with every new season? Just curious because the St. Elmo's engine was introduced in Y5S1 right?

[hollow yacht]

No. It was released during beta

[civic lily]

💀

[hollow yacht]

🤣👍🏽 Oh, yeah. It’s a great day 4-Shore🤠

[wise pasture]

Lmao, damn I'm absolutely out of touch

[civic lily]

I love misinformation

[wise pasture]

We can still dream about new exotics right? lol

[wispy merlin]

yes exotics among other things are released with new seasons

[dusk umbra]

What is descent, is it any good?

[tiny stump]

its pretty fun. very different from the regular pve which is refreshing. but if you're looking for some decent rewards (other than xp) you might have to play descent for like 7 hours

[next perch]

Is ensnare resistance mod the only thing to counter foam?
Also how much resistance needed?

[sudden matrix]

These are the PVE numbers, PVP is different as it depends on the persons build you are trying to counter.

[next perch]

Maybe I worded my question wrongly, apologies.
I mean what gear or mods do I need to be unfoamable?

[sudden matrix]

Ensnare mod is what you are looking for.

[next perch]

How many mods would I need?
I originally thought 💯 hazard would do it but I was wrong

[sudden matrix]

Well if you are in PVE you would need a total of 93.8% you are not going to hit that with mods only. Not sure what you are shooting for but there are many ways to get haz pro but which way you try to get there is different.

[young matrix]

anyone wanna play?

looking to get to lvl 100 in seasons

[regal summit]

100% hazpro should make you unfoamable

[next perch]

Really?
The description doesn't include ensnare resistance

[sudden matrix]

Haz pro includes all the things that are hazards.

[next perch]

Ah great
Thanks

[regal summit]

When you have 100% hazpro, go to stats and scroll down. You'll see every resistance including ensnare will be at 100%

Aside from pulse and explosive resistance

[wise pasture]

Is it possible to solo legendaries?

[wispy merlin]

yes

[wise pasture]

What should I build for that? Pure DPS? Or DPS/Survivability hybrid like heartbreaker?

[wispy merlin]

people have used skill builds, crit builds, HH sniper/pistol builds, tank builds, hybrid builds

HH and skill builds have less versatility but they do work

if you're looking for a good first build, striker with an AR is one

DUA is the easiest to solo, so try in that

[nova granite]

Can i get the Future Initiative 2K-RTS Radio Carrier in countdown?

[sudden matrix]

That's the backpack and yes.

Wait isn't it targeted loot?

[blazing timber]

i forgot it's been ages since they change fi allocation to lz

[visual karma]

Guys how to get iron horse base materials?

Have to donate more 49 for regulus project

Like, how many materials do we get in a single run in IH? Or is it weekly only?

[sudden matrix]

You need to run the raid again, mind you on a new reset which is Tuesday.

[visual karma]

So, to donate the materials, we need 3 weeks for Regulus project?

[sudden matrix]

Yeah most people take three resets to get a regular in their hands.

You have the blueprint for police pistol right? If you don't I'd farm CPS too.

[visual karma]

Cool

[visual karma]

I think only the pistol is required.

[sudden matrix]

You've gotta craft the police 686 magnum replica in order to craft the regulus. So if you go into your crafting bench and don't have that under pistols that'll hold you back once you are ready.

[blazing timber]

yeah you can use your alternate character to speed up

[visual karma]

It's my only one account lol

I am SHD 117

[earnest scroll]

Well depending on how badly you want the Regulus sooner and how much time you have you could make another character finish wony with it and do the raid on both chars to get the materials within one week instead of two

[cyan echo]

yo guys i have been crashing like crazy , about 10 crashes in 1hr

any fix?

tried with dx12 on and off but the crashes are same

[visual karma]

Guys, I am lacking 9 IH base materials. If I do the raid in another character of mine, will I get IH base materials?

[blazing timber]

yup

[tiny vale]

which one is better for dps sniper build aces and eights or hotshot

[plucky mesa]

Hotshot

[digital chasm]

Best way to get your expertise up past 5?

[tiny vale]

countdown

[digital chasm]

Really?

[tiny vale]

yes

[digital chasm]

That easy?

[tiny vale]

farm ar's, shotguns

max out all of ur weapons first then move onto gear sets

[digital chasm]

Would be nice if you could pick your stats on expertise

[sudden matrix]

Meh, expertise isn't too big of a deal unless we are talking about pvp or niche one shot stuff, like yeah it helps but a proper build will do just fine in all content of the game. I'd treat it as a casual donation after you put max stats into your recal library. It'll grow over time and if you really focus on it you'll probably still be 2-3k SHD before you max out expertise and that's if you really focus on it.

[boreal nexus]

[dapper bridge]

the easiest way would be to get into a count down with friends / clan members and they can drop you all the gear they get. if your watch is high enough running characters through NY is a good way to get watch points and use printer filliments

[nova granite]

Countdown is the fastest way 2 level up expertise level

[inner tendon]

Countdown itself is not really, but donating the stuff you pick up inside Countdown probably is.

[blazing timber]

yup directly and indirectly

[nova granite]

yes

set targeted loot on AR

[blazing timber]

not really you need to browse the menu and than farm for expertise

the best way for starting is weapons as 20 weapons /named items/exo give 10 lvls proficiency

for gear it is 100

[rugged stratus]

You'll never donate exo though. Those you use or donate mats. Exo components are a must have for later.

I'll add you can craft items to donate like improvised gear.

I agree weapons will be your biggest category.
skills also pretty rough to level. Use as many as you can because they will cost you 300shd each to level.

If you have a decent shd level the absolute fastest way to level is watch points->PF /wony runs to duplicate watch

[blazing timber]

it can be done in 150shd

buy money from shd it gives 10k per shd

2 mods =9.7k

=12 filaments per shd

[rugged stratus]

It can be done I 30 if you buy named..

[blazing timber]

rng not guaranteed

[rugged stratus]

I think 150 is an underestimate. iirc it's like 227 if buying mods

[blazing timber]

also it is like 6 filament per shd and you need

3000/6 =500 shd

let me check

finally kvd vendor reset put to use /s

4519 for 6 printer filament

[rugged stratus]

Its 300shd for printer fil purchase direct 💯

[blazing timber]

226

[rugged stratus]

So yeah not 150

[blazing timber]

no you require 300 filament per 1 proficiency lvl iirc

per lvl so 3000 per proficiency in an item

[rugged stratus]

How many shd for 3000 pf.

[blazing timber]

3000/6 =500

for mods it is half through money

[rugged stratus]

Like 300, right. You get 10 per

[blazing timber]

so around 225-226

[rugged stratus]

You also get carpal tunnel with mods

[blazing timber]

carpal tunnel ?

[rugged stratus]

Its 10per not 6 for a single shd

[blazing timber]

ok

my bad

i am at 23 expertise

has been a while have to hop in to check

[rugged stratus]

Its faster direct purchase because you kill your hands buying and breaking when it's super easy just to add a wony run

[blazing timber]

yeah

put for newbies

[rugged stratus]

I did an extensive amount of ways to try and make it faster. Direct purchase is it

[blazing timber]

they don't have that much shd to begin with

[rugged stratus]

That's why it was at the end of my post about it. Never mentioned his shd so it's all options

Im lucky I got as much completed early when kill xp counted for everything. I had it up to expertise 28 before they fixed the double and triple returns on kill xp 🤣
I actually didnt have to delete any agents, just ran my 3 alts once to get the watches and had more than enough to finish that and anything else.

[blazing timber]

lol

my 2nd alt was enough my friend had 20k shd

he had to use just one alt and he was done

[rugged stratus]

Yeah I think I used 17k to top off back then. Probably 20k total now with the newer stuff being added

[blazing timber]

this game is amazing a dog just went to floor above me

in space admin hq and can't kill him

[wispy merlin]

rip

it's a nade dog too

[blazing timber]

had to use seklers

[blazing timber]

yeah

and jammer

[wispy merlin]

i feel you
