[low hill]

Not like actually but you know, memes

[cedar yacht]

Is it confirmed? I dont pay attention to lore ingame

[next basin]

Stories boring enough why we killing off the goid ones

[low hill]

Not yet but given Kelso has the rogue red I'm gonna say she's gonna get killed

[next basin]

Did she really just say shi about isac and now we dont like her? Like i hate him too but im not getting killed

[low hill]

No I'm memeing

[static trout]

Vix is an all around meme.
Build is meme
Meme is meme

[low hill]

In cannon ISAC can actually order drone strikes n shit but for this it seems Kelso is just kinda going rogue but not in rogue agent sense

[static trout]

Worth remembering is that she isn't classified as rogue yet afaik - she's missing.

[low hill]

Mhm, I mean it'd suck for her to be rogue, but I see where the story is going

As the recruiter said, ISAC doesn't matter, it's just ones and zeroes with no understanding outside of strict guidelines, we by staying loyal to SHD are actually going more damage than good, while Blacktusk and the likes aren't the solution, SHD isn't either, we've just stemmed the bleeding for the time being

[rain thorn]

Frankl;y, since they have already have been been down this road with Faye, making Kelso rogue would be a case of the story writing being sloppy, lazy and lame.

[static trout]

Agree to disagree, but also #division-universe if you guys wanna talk about it more :3

[kind cove]

Kelso isn’t going rogue, even if she is she isn’t going to be a villain or a bossfight

It would be very lazy writing

It also would be extremely weird considering they updated her model and design, they wouldn’t do that just for a bossfight

[static trout]

The reason I just pointed to #division-universe is because it becomes a longer talk about what going rogue means, what SHD means etc. - which we've talked about a lot at length in that channel - and is a very relevant lore discussion

Chatting up there might get you more juicy lore nerds to talk about it with :3

[kind cove]

Also factor in the fact that if someone new joins the game and plays, you would literally go from a cutscene of kelso clearly having a dislike of rogues, into her being rogue or possibly dead

[short bane]

Anyone know what we're missing? Me and a friend are trying to do the Bardon Schaeffer legacy manhunt. We completed the only two missions showing on the coney island map (ballpark and amusement park) but it doesn't progress. We don't know what to do to actually get to Bardon Shaeffer? We killed Delores Jones I think her name is and that's as far as it lets us go 🤔

[short bane]

Nevermind, figured it out. Didn't know there were two variants of this mission and didn't know we had to switch it

[marble bison]

i was just clearing a propaganda broadcast and when i got the first wave of them ISAC detected rogue agents but none spawned, just normal cleaners. new bug?

even the theme started playing

[spare ether]

hey peeps anyway specific to get the capacitor???? thanks

[kind cove]

Yes, summit

Do summit challenges

[spare ether]

For sure

[low hill]

Old bug

Sometimes they spawn in the open world but are like blocks away but ISAC still warns you

Or not even spawn at all cause idk

[marble bison]

oki thanks

[low hill]

Yeah it's been an issue since they added rogue agent encounters in missions

Had it happen earlier on the bank HQ where they didn't spawn and I had to fast travel to make them spawn

[slim elk]

I've asked this more than 3 times and still forget, how do I search for Lady Death?

[spare ether]

Do I need to do challenges to get the capacitor or?? Just farm summit on heroic

[tiny stump]

the challenges will most likely be the faster way of getting one. I'm not sure if you have to complete that stuff before it'll drop in the general loot pool

[inner tendon]

It's just in the TL for SMG, so Challenging+, then either Countdown+caches or +Directives.

[wispy merlin]

if you're just playing solo then the summit challenges are the only way you'll get capacitor

[spare ether]

So I’ll just do normal with all directives and sweep challenges with target loot set to assault rifles?

[slim elk]

I ran out of xbox game pass so I can't play CD until I renew my subscription 😭

[wispy merlin]

targeted loot has no effect

[inner tendon]

I don't think you actually need to complete them to get one anymore, I got one on an alt and I'm 80% sure they've never been in Summit.
it's like Diamondback I think.

[wispy merlin]

hm, i wonder if you got one before getting the challenges done you'd still get another from them

[tiny stump]

yeah i was thinking they probably put it in general loot a long time ago

[inner tendon]

Oh completing it should give you one anyway, but I don't think it's a requirement to add it to your loot pool.

[wispy merlin]

still, 5 challenges is ridiculously easy to go through to get a guaranteed one

[tiny stump]

yeah its the smart route

[inner tendon]

I could run though Kenley real quick and check Dimaondback, but no one cares lol.

RIP that wonderful looking gun.

[tiny stump]

heh waste of time

[wispy merlin]

diamondback is in general pool yeah

[inner tendon]

I'm not sure if this is known or not, but I decided to run around and open a bunch of Faction Crates last week (because I've not dropped below 50/50 keys in literally years) and ended up getting 3 Acostas from like 10 crates.

[narrow kraken]

How the heck do you even manage to get that many faction keys god damn

[inner tendon]

Bounties reward them, I do a lot of bounties.

[tiny stump]

yeah acostas drop for me in faction crates all the time when im farming the hyena ones for chatterbox parts

[inner tendon]

If you just do the daily (yellow) ones, you end up getting a ton of them per week.

[narrow kraken]

Ohhhh I see, I've never done bounties so maybe I should start

[inner tendon]

I also did the exact same bounty like 3 times in a row, so they might be a tad buggy when you get multiples.

[narrow kraken]

My issue is I only seem to be doing projects and control points at the moment

[tiny stump]

weekly project is so worth it now

[narrow kraken]

The part I always seem to struggle with is named enemies

[tiny stump]

bounties will take care of that

the targets are named elites

[narrow kraken]

Oh my god so there's like a little cheese to find then, I always just do activities like public executions and hope I get lucky and there's a named elite there

[tiny stump]

yeah you can kill two birds with one stone if bounties are part of the weekly challenges too

[narrow kraken]

That is so helpful to know

[tiny stump]

glad to help

[narrow kraken]

I thought I was going to be stuck on this project for ages since it requires you to kill a bunch of named elites from 3 different factions

[wispy merlin]

bounties are also great for xp

if you stack them with public executions

[narrow kraken]

This is so handy to know

[inner tendon]

Missions work for Named Enemies if bounties aren't working for you.

seriously, 4 Named Enemies inside Lincoln for True Sons is amazing

[narrow kraken]

Ah well I've done two bounties so far and neither have counted towards the project so might have to do missions instead

[inner tendon]

What Project is it?

[narrow kraken]

DC Housecleaning

[inner tendon]

(by the way, Control Points now count as 2 activity completions, 1 for taking it, and one for defending it)

[narrow kraken]

Oh wow that's handy

[inner tendon]

It feels like it's both a bug and not a bug, so I hope it's kept.

I'll load it up now and check myself.

[inner tendon]

Okay so the "missions on at least hard" and "stronghold" are both required to be regular missions, not Bounties.
the named enemies should work for bounties.
What I did was run DUA then Lincoln, getting a few Hyena and True Sons out of the way, then a few Bounrties for the rest.

[narrow kraken]

Ah I see

I do need to do 3 missions and a stronghold on hard or higher anyway so might be easier to do it that way

[inner tendon]

Oh yeah 3, sorry I forgot. I also did the Invaded ones, which are worth more xp than a regular mission so you should be doing them per/week anyway.
"call for backup" if you want a hand with them, just re-call each time someone shows up.

[narrow kraken]

Definitely will need to do that for sure

[frigid chasm]

Is the game still gonna update more? I'be been hiatus for the game for like almost 3 years due to me not being able to play properly since introduction of tu16

[inner tendon]

Yep, just got a brand new season and we're going to get more, and then we're getting a DLC some time early next year (ish)

[frigid chasm]

Oh nice, man, i hated missing all the apparels, i missed like 6-8 apparels TT

I hope they bringing back those apparels like the last resort

[inner tendon]

Actually they're re-running some old ones, and there's a brand new one on right now. The first week is almost done, you have 1 more week to get it for free.

they also ran a "catch up" one last season, where it had random pieces from the store that cost Premium Credits only.

[frigid chasm]

Sadly i dont have the money to buy with those prices being expensive in my region

I never bought season pass, just being like a f2p since

[inner tendon]

You don't need to buy the Season Pass, and Apparel Events are all free.
the "paid track" of the Season Pass is just cosmetics and some excess caches, all the good stuff is free.

the only thing you need to buy with div2 is the base game and the dlc, both of which go on heavy sale quite regularly.

tl;dr buy div2, buy wony, dont buy ultimate or season pass.

[frigid chasm]

I bought div2 after a year release in which when i got a my first ever gaming laptop, then i bought the dlc when it got released so i never got discounts of it haha

Never bought other things

[inner tendon]

Yeah I got all mine pre-day 1 so paid full price.
Well worth it even then.

[urban rampart]

hey guys me and my friend need some help - we tried asking the reddit and were just told "crashing is normal" and our thread was closed - my friend is crashing non stop - on average he crashes without end every 10-15 minutes - every mission we do he crashes at least once but normally 2-3 times and i have to take cover and just pray i survive until he returns - the frequency is definitly not normal! we've been playing off and on since launch and it has NEVER been this bad or frequent! he recently got a new computer and this is the first time playing it on this one - like i said the crashes are litterally an average of every 10 or so minutes without end and sometimes when i activate my pulse it instantly closes his game so it just is clearly something weird

we basically are looking for things to attempt/try to at least minimize it

[slim elk]

Its his device, not actually something to do with TD2. He needs to optimise his computer.

[urban rampart]

@slim elk he has a 4090 and the newest highest end intel processor - im not saying theres nothing he can do but what kind of action should he perform?

[cold palm]

Crap! This new Scorpio dropped for me. Should I keep it and get rid of the other even though I spent resources to upgrade the proficiency?

[civic lily]

It's only 2 expertise

[south island]

I’d say keep

[cold palm]

Keep which or are you saying keep and level up both?

Sounds like I should just dismantle the original, and optimize the new one.

[civic lily]

definitely use the new one

[rugged stratus]

Keep the new one. Use crafting bench to reroll the scorpio with expertise and cross fingers for 3rd attribute being damage to targets out of cover.
If you get it use that and put the other one on an alt

Make sure inventory isnt full before craft/reroll

[cold palm]

Thanks everyone!

[sour mortar]

here is another one for you

[civic lily]

what is this for

[sudden matrix]

This is to show off "aim"

[sour mortar]

he wanted a clip of me using 2cm/360 at 3200 dpi

[civic lily]

looks normal

[sudden matrix]

It's elmo gameplay.

[civic lily]

no it isn't

[sour mortar]

i dont use snipers or mm or regulus

[sudden matrix]

It doesn't matter, if you use elmo you don't really need aim and you probably can't utilize builds where you do need aim.

[sour mortar]

no, its just not my playstyle. why should i use something that i dont like using

[civic lily]

more like you don't need to do recoil control which could be different from aim

[static trout]

I hope Div3 (or even the Div2 DLC) splits up the UI elements aswell as allows for customising text color and maybe font.
Especially the minimap - because too many elements are connected to it. I much prefer havning the minimap where I've placed it, but then you run into issues with the raid speedrun UI going out of screen, aswell as objectives sometimes.
The Countdown timer also comes to mind.

[sour mortar]

i control recoil on every weapon. its second nature since OG xbox days for shooters

[static trout]

I understood that

[sudden matrix]

I just think it's horrible advice to say someone with 2cm/360(what most consider absurd) can accomplish the same aiming feats as someone with 15cm/360(a typical high sense)

[sour mortar]

wow i can play like 15cm/360? sheesh. i personally cant do that because i still cant use my arm for gaming.

i should say, i still cant move my arm around just to use my wrist still. i only use my wrist because its more comfortable for me. which also means i run a higher sens than most people.

its all muscle memory at the end of the day

[sudden matrix]

That's fine but I just think after looking up a bunch of articles and typical sense based on tons of FPS(from pro players to just normies being asked what they use) I would reconsider calling 2cm/360 "high" sense and maybe use absurd or something.

[sour mortar]

to an average player. its impossible. me personally more than 2cm/360 is impossible for me. especially when it requires my arm to move my mouse around. i still cannot till this day learn how use my arm for gaming in general.

[plucky hawk]

This is exactly what we're talking about though. Your able to put your aim on a general target, but you don't have any precision to hit headshots or moving targets with that sensitivity

*consistently

[sour mortar]

i used my friends sens. he plays at 20cm/360. i have to keep swiping the mouse over to turn. i honestly hate doing that. its to much work and effort for me to do the same exact same thing with my sens.

using my arm. i always keep forgetting to use it because it isnt muscle memory.

[plucky hawk]

How larger is the space you have to move your mouse?

[sour mortar]

so i always stick to only using my wrist. its easier

[sour mortar]

i have a big area on my desk for my mouse. i only use a small bit of it.

[plucky hawk]

So why are you picking your mouse up so much?

[sour mortar]

i dont. when i use a lower sens than mine. i have to

[plucky hawk]

With the 20cm sensitivity. That's still not really even that low tbh

[sudden matrix]

idk this is a preference thing at this point. I just don't think you should claim that people can use that to the same effect as a proper controllable one. Until you can provide the fact that you can(I tried to find other people doing it but no one use that high a sense unless it's memes) I'm just gonna call it bad advice.

[plucky hawk]

Ouija, go send us a clip of you trying to headhunt

[sour mortar]

i dont have that at all in my inv or stash

i dont even have a mm or sniper either

[sudden matrix]

No one would ever like a build they can't hit anything with. Those require fine control.

[plucky hawk]

And I think I know why, that's my whole point.

[sour mortar]

i just dont like it in division.

i rather play sniper in battlefield or cod than division. even if im running around getting kills

[sudden matrix]

I don't care if you wanna run a rainbow build or whatever you may. I just don't think you should claim that an absurd sensitivity can do anything with any sort of repeatability or that it's just muscle memory and can be used to the same effect. It's your preference and until you could prove you can accomplish the same feats it's bs.

[plucky hawk]

They are literally some of the strongest and imo most fun builds to play. But you need some precise control. On console they have some aim assist because their sensitivity is effectively 1-2cm with a joystick. Your giving yourself that console disadvantage, but lacking any auto aim to help you out. It doesn't mean you can't hit stationary targets and miss literally everything, but it takes away that precise control

[sour mortar]

try and run my sens to prove me wrong for 5+ years striaght

[sudden matrix]

Why when I can use my sense and do better even with the same ARs?

[sour mortar]

before PC i always ran max sens X and Y axis on controller

i just adapted to high sens naturally

[plucky hawk]

Which again, not the best idea, but at least you had some auto aim (varying on the game) to help you out

[sour mortar]

i always ran without AA on console. AA always mess me up

here is a cod clip of me with the same exact sens

[sudden matrix]

never paused and muted so fast in my life lol

[static trout]

Sensitivity is a moot discussion, because the only way to prove whether a sensitivity is working for you specifically is to go into Aimlabs and have it register stats for you.
If you consequently over- or underaim (that is, after muscle memory has been learned, do you still have to adjust in either direction after acquiring a target?), your sensitivity isn't correct for the gameplay.
Then after that it will highly differ on if you play a HS reliant game or not - and what your playstyle is - because a sensitivity might be good for body shots but not headshots.
If I only AWP in CS, play Determined or Striker's in Div2, then body shots is more than fine and my target is larger. If I play AR in CS or have to rely on a smaller target, I might need a change in sensitivity.

When all that is said and done, muscle memory does a lot when it comes to knowing how much you have to move your mouse for a given action. If a mouse has high polling rate and DPI (capability, no-one uses 16K DPI, but the sensor is more accurate than a 4K sensor) it is rather accurate on micro movements.

On the other hand, muscle memory is also malleable. It can be changed and it doesn't actually take that long. It's just annoying while you do it.

[plucky hawk]

Is this mouse or controller?

[sour mortar]

MnK

[plucky hawk]

Ok.... You see how to get your fine aim your not using your mouse, your using your movement? That's the kind of thing I'm talking about lol

Your lacking the same kind of control I'm talking about

[sour mortar]

i also have a battlefield clip but that old asf when i used to play with 1cm/360 before i swapped to 2cm/360.

[sudden matrix]

Honest question here, can you hit people who are further than 3-4 meters?

[sour mortar]

yes

honestly 1cm to 2cm is a big change in sens for me.

[plucky hawk]

And not stationary lol

[sudden matrix]

I mean all of these clips are of people super close where you can strafe your aim more than using mouse movement and even then you still miss like half your shots.

[mortal granite]

@sour mortar Hi! Bhai (Brother) will like me allow this clip to use for myself

[sour mortar]

idc

[mortal granite]

idc?

[sour mortar]

im not the best at tracking and all of that.

[sour mortar]

i dont care

[mortal granite]

@sour mortar Oh thik
So I can use

[sour mortar]

sure

[sudden matrix]

That's the entire point of everything we are talking about...

[mortal granite]

[wispy merlin]

tracking is pretty important in this game tbh

[sudden matrix]

I'd aruge that your aiming with A and D more than your mouse.

Which is fine and good.

[wispy merlin]

definitely, you want to use both

[sour mortar]

i have good tracking. i dont have "god aim" or "shroud aim" in games

[mortal granite]

But you get killed by cheaters to sometime and for me that's whole truth of Battlefield latest one

[plucky hawk]

It's very important for console where you lack precision with controller

[sour mortar]

people use that for aiming?? i use that for strafing

[sudden matrix]

Yeah I used to be a console pleb. Played game battles for cod and did some competitive play too.

[static trout]

Let's not start that discussion

[sudden matrix]

Strafing is a combination of aiming and player placement.

[wispy merlin]

we will discuss in a few days how we wanna do capitol

[sour mortar]

yea. i just dont rely on A and D for aiming tho

[static trout]

I'm sick that day

[wispy merlin]

whenever you're free

[sudden matrix]

Probably more than you realize tho. It's a good skill and makes micro adjustments easier.

[static trout]

I've got terminal procrastination, I don't know if you've heard about it

[sudden matrix]

Unless it comes to something you're interested in tho right?

[civic lily]

relatable

[wispy merlin]

whatever you wanna do, I'm probably interested too so

i just wanna hunt heads

[static trout]

I've heard that's better at the club

[wispy merlin]

nah div2 gamers don't club

who are you kidding?

[wooden estuary]

😳

[sour mortar]

honestly, when people play on 10cm/360 or more sens. i feel like im watching a video in ultra slow motion.

idk why

maybe because im so used to high sens

[blazing timber]

I want in too

[wispy merlin]

damn, my oven's on fire

[blazing timber]

Use 511 brand bonus for hazpro

[sudden matrix]

By oven you mean???

[blazing timber]

It's an old joke

[sudden matrix]

New to me.

[plucky hawk]

So pro gamers like shroud have slow aim in your view?

[blazing timber]

[wispy merlin]

pffff legendary is ezzzzz.

[sour mortar]

i hear that all the time. i feel like its a meme nowadays

[plucky hawk]

Does this feel slow? Because my sensitivity is roughly 10in instead of 10cm
https://youtu.be/VMCY7Y5L_Gs?t=117

[sour mortar]

abit slow yea

[sudden matrix]

Slaps knees "welp"

[sour mortar]

is your polling rate low??

[plucky hawk]

rofl

I have no idea tbh

[static trout]

You sure we talking about sensitivity 😳

[sour mortar]

you can check it in your mouse's program

[blazing timber]

finally @wispy merlin @sudden matrix @plucky hawk

[sour mortar]

polling rate also plays a factor in sens.

[sudden matrix]

ehhh you move almost no distance/time so why would it?

[sour mortar]

it updates movement more quicker so its more consistent

lower polling rate i see on low sens alot so they can turn their mouse less than higher polling rate.

1k hz polling rate play alot different than 125 hz

[blazing timber]

Looks like no one like my new avatar let's ask AI @inner tendon what do you think of my new name

Raucey's vote of confidence

[plucky hawk]

And what are you seeing in my clip to think this?

[static trout]

Oh good lord, he finally morphed from gear lock and 511

[sour mortar]

it dont look like 10in. unless you have a big table to play on and swiping your mouse every where

[sudden matrix]

Dude is playing with a weirdo don't watch that.

[sour mortar]

https://www.howtogeek.com/182702/mouse-dpi-and-polling-rates-explained-do-they-matter-for-gaming/ thats the explanation to polling rate

[plucky hawk]

if your seeing anything its probably the framerate of the video, and thats far lower than the fps Im actually playing with

[blazing timber]

Weirdo without a soul

[sour mortar]

idc about frames

[static trout]

Yeah, it looks like 30fps

[plucky hawk]

ok well then what are you seeing lol

[blazing timber]

511 FPS

[sour mortar]

your aim movement... smh

[inner tendon]

I'm just happy you finally have a name of a good thing from div2.

[plucky hawk]

this is exactly the point of playing on a lower senstitivity. I can look around JUST as fast as you, but I can also control smaller movements

[inner tendon]

I thought having your sensitivity be super low by default ingame was kinda the standard?

[blazing timber]

I got few tips from raucey regarding this

[sour mortar]

im running 15 look and 10 ads xD

[inner tendon]

I never bother doing it, but I do recall it being a "thing" last time I checked.

[static trout]

That's not at all how polling rate works. Even the link doesn't say that.
Polling rate increases accuracy as the sensor can send data to the pc more accurately. Some games (Looking at World of Warcraft) has issues handling higher polling rates.
Ideally you want to run as high a polling rate as your device supports.
What it could technically affect is high DPI, but that's still rare.

[plucky hawk]

hes just trying to pull things out of his ass for an excuse lol

[static trout]

To clarify. Accuracy between physical movement and what happens digitally.

[sour mortar]

excuse? explain??

[plucky hawk]

what are you seeing that makes you thing my pollrate is low

because right now the only thing youve said is explaining that I arm aim instead of wrist aim, which is the whole fucking point

[blazing timber]

No one saw that

[static trout]

Type a Twitch emote Kappa

WAIT that one worked

[inner tendon]

Are the two of you going mad or something?

[blazing timber]

?ohw

[sour mortar]

its basically between low cm/360 vs high cm/360

[static trout]

Which two? xD

Okay call me a newb or whatever, but is there an actual point to that in a game like div2?

[sour mortar]

my bad.

its a convo we have, between high sens vs low sens

[plucky hawk]

so what you are seeing?

[sour mortar]

just disregard it. forget it.

[blazing timber]

my game just crashed

[rugged stratus]

It wouldn't have if you were wearing 5.11... js 😉

[mellow trout]

+100 percent crash protection on classified 5.11

[frigid chasm]

Does the keys in incursion refreshes on the daythat you completed it every week?

[mellow trout]

Mondays

[frigid chasm]

Cuz i did an incursion after 2 days before the refresh, so i thought it goes to the same weekly refresh, but i did it before the refresh but did not refreshed after the monday

Imma try to keep track of it again if it resets on mondays

Oh nvm, im on my 2nd char...

[shadow peak]

How many hunters are there in total?

[cedar schooner]

4 in new york, 8 in DC

plus the recuiter, the weird guy at coney island etc. if you want that number i'd look on the wiki tbh

[kind cove]

Pretty sure there are more than that

[mellow trout]

Theres at least 20

[wintry quiver]

Is there any faster way to Disorient 250 enemies without banshee puls on Gunner?Im having hard time without it

[wintry quiver]

dont have either lol

dang

[cedar schooner]

play against Hyenas and shoot their bags

[wintry quiver]

its kinda working by blowing up hyenas tank but i only got 60 of them in 2 hours its so draining

[blazing timber]

using creeping death

with scorpio

[static trout]

I always just 10/10 3 or 4 missions a week, ez and quick xp + event

Never bother with the two others.

[wintry quiver]

i think this is hunters fury judging by design but its greyed out does that mean i cant farm it anymore ?

[static trout]

The zone gives you hunter's fury

It has to be opaque so you can see the zone underneath

[wintry quiver]

so if i do any activity in that zone i have chance for it to drop ?

That's the question then: Where do you get the blueprint, as Inaya didn't sell it to me after acquring it.

[narrow matrix]

I’ve gotten a few new exotics and she doesn’t have blueprints for me either

So that might be a problem

[solemn lynx]

I'd just want to know before getting my hopes up that something else related to gear is bugged, and I just have to wait.
Not that much of any of these new exotics are meta-changing

[wispy seal]

how many ironworks base mats drop per boss?

[spare ether]

so there is no cleaner cps rn, where can I farm for the cleaner burns at??

[willow gale]

i play 34~cm/360. Can move my arm fast as fuck. Have alot of experience with moving my arm quickly up and down 👍

[static trout]

🤨

[wispy seal]

do the manhunt

manunt at stronghold roosevelts or watever

[slim elk]

Who was the one who asked about Castle Settlement?

[sour mortar]

sheesh

you do move fast asf in DZ

[slim elk]

I sense some strange feeling from you...

[rugged stratus]

Stranded tanker on repeat ezpz cleaner burns

[verbal swallow]

Stupid question but what exactly gets shared between characters and when will it show my main characters resources, is it after complete warlords

[sour mortar]

only rss and shd lvl after you past wony story, also the recal library and blueprints

[rugged stratus]

Resources and blueprints

[spare ether]

is there any actual active clans out there, it seems like the clan page no one answers and im just tryna find peeps to play with

[rugged stratus]

Gotta buy the share bp at crafting lady in dc

What wont share is credits, components, food, water

[verbal swallow]

Ok perfect so need to get this 2nd character then

Done

Can you transfer gear over or does it automatically do that

[sour mortar]

you do that through stash

your stash is linked to all non hardcore characters

inventory is character side only

[rugged stratus]

Your stash will be shared right away. If you make sure you have a decent level 40 build in there you'll make the keener fight a lot easier on yourself when doing wony runs

[verbal swallow]

Ok thanks

[rugged stratus]

Can use at 40 even if no shd watch. Memento wont work tho

[verbal swallow]

Just making 2nd character to do ih raid for the materials

[sour mortar]

all skills is also unlocked from the start, when you make a wony DLC character also

480 apparel caches later

i now have over 60k textiles

[sour mortar]

Danny is gonna love me for my textiles

[rugged stratus]

Once you have some shd under your belt those wony runs duplicate your scavenging points 😉

[verbal swallow]

1000 wanna get to first right

Then scavenging

So I just need to go on 2nd character with the scavenging points then claim and I get double materials or whatever I claim

[rugged stratus]

If they are created , @ 1000 each will have 200 scavenging to use . But yeah for real big gains wait till about 1500 or so.
After 1000 you'll get shd total - 800 locked points

The second will have any gains you made and will also keep gaining as you level your main

[verbal swallow]

Oh ok makes sense

[sour mortar]

Higher the SHD lvl, the better for rss

[verbal swallow]

So what happens if there was also a third character

[rugged stratus]

Also extra storage and extra projects for exotics

Same thing on the 3rd or 4th

All gain

[verbal swallow]

So would triple

[civic lily]

extra character more like +150 stash space

[verbal swallow]

What u mean by creating at 1500 is I would have to do wony run to gain access to the 200 scavenging right

[rugged stratus]

Its worth having a couple created. When you're higher shd level you can delete and rerun for a new watch with all those scavenging points fresh again... and run on repeat if desired

[rugged stratus]

@1500 it would be 700scavenging

[civic lily]

you get 1 scavenging per level after 999

[verbal swallow]

Ok think I get what u mean

[rugged stratus]

Whatever the shd level is minus the 800 points that are locked to the 4 categories

Its how a lot of people get their expertise maxed out

[verbal swallow]

Yh because the 800 is for the stats

[rugged stratus]

Exactly

[verbal swallow]

Ok makes sense now

So basically I would want to keep repeating the wony run for expertise lvls

Is there a stat of how many times u would have to do wony run to get to like lvl 20 expertise haha

[rugged stratus]

Nice, let me send you my login info and you can start opening the 7000+ I'm sitting on. /s

[oak niche]

been away for +2 years
should I create a new char and play through the story or just boost it for the warlords

[rugged stratus]

What about your original agent. What's their status

[oak niche]

they are there, story finished I think

[verbal swallow]

@rugged stratus I'm at 350 shd so long way left haha

[rugged stratus]

However many times it takes you to accumulate these type of shd numbers...

The true cost of proficiency to hit expertise 25
(usage obviously lowers cost)

weapons - 4380 donated items - 65,700 shd points - 657,000 printer filament.
named/ exo - 1380 donated items - 20,700 shd - 207,000 printer filament.
brandsets - 2900 donation items - 8700 shd - 87,000 printer filament.
gear sets - 1900 donated items - 5700 shd - 57,000 printer filament.
skills/spec -no donations - 14,100 shd - 141,000 printer filament

[errant crypt]

I have a quick question about how "Core attributes" work, in this case, armor. Does this mean 831 (item base armor stat) + 1180 (core attribute) for a total of 2011 armor?

[verbal swallow]

So years that's like 1.2 mill printer filament haha

[rugged stratus]

I would push the main through story. You might already have some specializations unlocked. If they are still pre wony you can still boost

[civic lily]

green 511

[rugged stratus]

Yeah it's a lot. But that's for direct pf purchase. If you use the shd as cash and buy 20 items it's closer to 30shd to proficient instead of 300 to proficient 😎

[narrow kraken]

Let's do this

[desert frigate]

yes those add together

[errant crypt]

Awesome, thanks!

[verbal swallow]

Can the items be anything

[rugged stratus]

Well 20 named. 20 weapons. If not proficient you can donate 20. If the are then it's not going to take it. But Weekly visits will boost your expertise

[verbal swallow]

Ok so just buy whatever from the store that's not proficient

[rugged stratus]

Some people have used cash for mods to break into printer filament. That makes it 227 shd per proficient item... but it also comes with a severe case of carpal tunnel 💀

[rugged stratus]

Yeah pretty much

If you have a ton of resources you can also direct donate to unavailable items or craft for donations... like improvised gear 🤔

[verbal swallow]

Kk

All makes sense now

Do both character share expertise lvls

[rugged stratus]

Yes. But actual upgrades are item specific

[sour mortar]

Fr? Because you don’t want to open them xD

[civic lily]

The real question is how much time does that take

[rugged stratus]

I think skill upgrades are shared though

[sour mortar]

And sheesh 🙄 you have 7k caches. That’s crazy ngl

[rugged stratus]

Ofc not, I'm an old lazy fuck

[sour mortar]

I just watched a video on my phone and held X and press space. Over and over again. Looked at Div2 and saw 20 left xD

[rugged stratus]

Too long. I dont even remember how many you have to buy but with the mod limit you are back and forth buying/deleting repeat

[oak niche]

okay after poking around

[civic lily]

rip might as well run another wony

[oak niche]

I ahve my first agent doing warlords then boosted char done with warlords

[rugged stratus]

That's what I said 🤣

[oak niche]

but they are both from like 2 years ago

[rugged stratus]

Use the boosted and roll on into endgame then

[sour mortar]

Boosted wony characters have all skills unlocked. Set for a few because they are locked behind manhunt bosses. Can be unlocked through Season Pass for the manhunts.

[acoustic lark]

why is the decoy sometimes useless? 1 enemy left. i throw decoy between me and the enemy. enemy attacks me...

[civic lily]

let the threat generation cook

Ur probably already yolked up on threat if there's only 1 enemy left

[acoustic lark]

what exactly is threat generation? decoy has to be down for a few seconds for the enemy to lock on?

trying to beat that stupid warhunt in stovepipe mission but it ignores my decoy

[rugged stratus]

You may already be the biggest threat. In that case the decoy might not draw aggro.
If you can get it out early itll be more effective

[civic lily]

If ur repositioning aka not shooting its way more reliable

[acoustic lark]

i'll try that, thanks

wish that mission would give 2 comms on completion instead of just 1

but only 1 boss so..

[sour mortar]

Decoy is great with snipers. Since you don’t pull as much agro. Me on ARs/SMGs/LMGs. I pull more agro than the decoy.

[civic lily]

it be like that sometimes

[verbal swallow]

Just completed the wony run

[fickle agate]

i have never done descent and the only reason i would want to would be for the blueprints from the reconstructed caches so i craft named items towards expertise. if i were to go down this route, would it be faster than just running new characters for shd? (currently shd lvl 3510)

[verbal swallow]

@rugged stratus

[rugged stratus]

Nice

[verbal swallow]

@rugged stratus something weird happened though

For this new character My demolition and survivalist have max points and my gunner only has 3 points but whereas my main my gunner is maxed and I still need a lot of points for the demolitionist and survalist

Is there a reason why

[rugged stratus]

im not sure why, but its the same for everyone iirc

[red thunder]

how do i get points on my specializations?

[sour mortar]

make it active and level up like normal

as you lvl up your SHD lvl you gain spec points also

till your spec is maxed out on points

and repeat the process till all of your spec trees is maxed out

@red thunder

[red thunder]

understood thank you

what should i be doing to level up just general activities?

[sour mortar]

open world activities, missions, countdown, dz and ect

[rugged stratus]

invaded missions also give a good amount of spec points on first completion.

[narrow matrix]

Daily and weekly projects, check the bounties tab as some have the points such as daily and clan bounties

Leveling up gives you 3 and clearing heroic control points gives you 1

[plucky pelican]

Is there a difference in reward for clearing the summit in normall vs higher difficulties?

[inner tendon]

Loot is better quality the higher the difficulty is (overall) and you get more xp.
basically, play on Challenging or above and enemies only drop gold/gearset/exotic loot.

Summit is more designed as a "go in there and farm" rather than a "complete every floor" kinda thing.
Although there are certain rewards for finishing it.

[plucky pelican]

I've been running on hard with ease so i'll try challenging!

[inner tendon]

Same goes for the rest of the game actually, well worth making Challenging your new "low".

[low hill]

I wish they left in the option to reset your summit progress, I don't wanna fight the hunters

[plucky pelican]

first bounty was tougher but went well. GOnna have to remember i'm not a god in this difficulty. What stats should i be at for legendary?

I'm running heartbreaker with 1.5 m armor and 466k health

[mellow trout]

Legendary is less your build and more your skill and game knowledge

[narrow kraken]

Anyone have any good videos on tinkering?

[mellow trout]

Don't get me wrong though you still need a good build

[sudden matrix]

Skill>perfect build

[mellow trout]

You can have the perfect build and fail miserable but you can have a subpar build and do well

[inner tendon]

You still can.

[mellow trout]

That's like the most fun part for me lol

[inner tendon]

Summit elevator > "reset checkpoint".

[soft compass]

on xbox

[sour mortar]

https://discord.com/channels/477210626742288384/535048747705696284 people post alot of clans here

[cosmic rain]

are there any automatic sidearms?

[sour mortar]

no only semi and burst

or a swad off shotty

[shadow peak]

Can i play with a ps player if im on xbox?

[sour mortar]

cross play isnt a thing on Div1 or Div2

[cosmic rain]

which ones are burst or the sawd off?

[sour mortar]

i think the 93R or sum like that is burst

swad off its a short range double barrel shotgun

i forgot the name of the swad off ingame

[cosmic rain]

is there a website i can use to find where it drops or how to craft it?

[sour mortar]

idk if there is a blueprint for it. but you can farm shotgun TL for it

[cosmic rain]

TL?

[sour mortar]

Targeted Loot. my bad

[cosmic rain]

meaning like kill enemies that use shotguns?

[sour mortar]

no, you know targeted loot like on missions and stuff that have a gear or weapon loot icon?

[cosmic rain]

ohhhhh, yeah

[sour mortar]

like this

those icons is targeted loot. same in NYC

targeted loot will drop more of that certain loot. like chest TL, it will drop more chest in general. so on so forth.

also thats the named swad off shotgun. its 2% more shotgun dmg.

the swad off will look like that when you see it

in my opinion, TDI KARD (named) is the best side arm due to it having passive +1 skill tier when equipped/holding it like you are shooting the pistol. it deactivates when you swap back to your other weapons

[civic lily]

It's overrated af tbh unless ur using revive hive in groups

I like orbit better

[sour mortar]

orbit is also nice asf

swad off in PvP is also nice asf. when they are on the ground. proc finisher and swap back for extra chc and chd. or preservation for arm regen before swapping back to primaries

[sour mortar]

good ol' Div1 sidearm moments xD

[blazing timber]

coolhead determined sidearm

[sour mortar]

lol, blue pistol also or purple xD

[blazing timber]

I have WT4 High end pistol with those

[sour mortar]

yes sirski

[low ermine]

Keener really fell off, huh💀

[sudden matrix]

Why take the shock? Get a front row seat and drop your hive for faraday.

[low ermine]

oh yeah, not like it matters anyways 😄

[broken escarp]

how is possible to do liberty island in 18 min ?? O_o

[sudden matrix]

You do it?

[cedar schooner]

My clan did a duo, wiped at razorback and still made it. It’s doable

[sudden matrix]

I could get up and get on and zoom you thru if you want.

[low ermine]

Pretty easy tbh

[sudden matrix]

I honestly skip it tho. The other three missions can be done the first and second week so ez finish.

[broken escarp]

yep i collected every cache but can't see that 8/10 lol 😄

[broken escarp]

thanks man but need to go out now I will try it again later 🙂

[earnest scroll]

Just keep it at 0/10 or just don't look at it

The other 3 missions are easy sub 10 min clears on hard i don't understand people who suffer trough any NY missions for those leagues if they don't have to

[shut blaze]

Any tips on ledgendary tidal basin the last fight on the top deck? try to do it in different group but end up overwhelm by enemies. We tried stay in the control room and rush to on of the turrent generater, some people will get kill by turrent while running

[wispy merlin]

try to find a way to stay outside, disable the left and right turrets

use cover to cover and decoy to safely get to the generators

[blazing timber]

Invite me I can help

[shut blaze]

it will be a fresh run if that is ok

[blazing timber]

Sure

[shut blaze]

how do I invite you in game?

[blazing timber]

/invite nerfking6950

Already done tidal 7-8 times this week

[shut blaze]

I sent an invite (i think)

[blazing timber]

Got it

[wooden estuary]

buffking6969

pro gamer

[blazing timber]

Game crash

[cosmic rain]

are the brand sets worth aiming for?

[rugged stratus]

Some. Check the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice to get an idea of what works well. If you dont see a build for a set it's probably trash

[blazing timber]

Did it again with @shut blaze

[wooden estuary]

👑

[blazing timber]

He was using nice healer build

[cosmic rain]

how do i get the perfect talents and am i able to transfer the talents to other guns?

[static trout]

Alright, carry my danish fat viking ass through some leggies?

[blazing timber]

Maybe tomorrow

[static trout]

Timezone issues Sadge

[icy notch]

did they fix arch method in incursion?

[visual fractal]

Hello, this must be 15 countdowns that I've been doing with the mask targeted loot and I still can't manage to drop a single exotic, is this normal and extremely rare or did I need something before I can get coyote's mask?

[tiny stump]

eh thats not that unusual

[true siren]

unlucky be unluckying

[rugged stratus]

Gear exotics have a bigger pool to contend with. You probably have 60ish other masks that can drop. Have you been purchasing the exotic caches with the requisition credits?

15 rounds would net you enough credits for 7-8 exo caches

[visual fractal]

yh i buy like 12 with all my runs for this mask

but nop, i guess its not for me

[tiny stump]

na you'll get it randomly when youre not trying

keep buying those exotic caches

[rugged stratus]

Need to step up the Lootcifer sacrifices ig.
He likes heroic countdown extraction wipes. Extra credit if it was from a hacked stinger hive

[visual fractal]

this is what i'am doing, its not that bad cause i just start TD2 so i guet a lots of exotic freely x)

[visual fractal]

so what I must do ?

[icy notch]

its a joke

[red thunder]

what should i be targeting for countdown?

[slim elk]

If you want to grind as much as possible, AR's, shotguns, any good exotic. (Sorry, I misread first time lol)

[sudden blaze]

is there a place that drops gear with better stats i.e 15?% crit chances on a bag lets say, difficulty based or pure rng hell?

[tiny stump]

higher difficulty drops better rolls generally

but finding max rolled stuff can be rare

[inner tendon]

What 'glad said is true, but you can't ever get 15% crit chance (chc) on a bag as an attribute.

on gear attributes, 6% is the max roll for chc, 12% for chd.

[low hill]

Whatever you are wanting to have dropped

[inner tendon]

If people are asking for genuine advice, let's keep the bad jokes to a minimum.

[tiny stump]

bad jokes cap

ok thats the last one

[inner tendon]

I like to call it the "no but seriously" rule.
Where you make the joke, then apologise and give the real answer in the same reply.

[patent vigil]

thats called being a social arsething bc current ettiquette says people will/should accept such BS. I'm glad I don't.

anyway, back to best ways to do genocide.

[woeful kite]

when are they adding sentry's call in division 2
(it would be ironically kinda dope)

[inner tendon]

Oh cheer up.

[patent vigil]

no. my lawn is dead so no need to stay off it.

Sentry's Call would be nice.

same can be said of a couple sets.

[barren maple]

Just waiting till the devs add in nomad from the 1st game or banshee

[wooden marsh]

werent there veteran rewards for d1 players?

the shields or smth?

[cedar yacht]

We're bringing back lonestar first via True Patriot

[patent vigil]

if you did the shields.

[wooden marsh]

i did do em

[barren maple]

I think so

[wooden marsh]

just got the game cant find them

[patent vigil]

then you got the things, as long as on the same platform.

[wooden marsh]

hmm cant find em

contact support ?

[patent vigil]

I would. also go check what they were, I don't remember anymore.

[wooden marsh]

some cosmetic stuff

[inner tendon]

Just a PSA: the shield rewards in div2 were actually stopped a loooong time ago. You can still do them in div1, but they now give no stuff for div2.

what they did give was just stuff like "a jacket" and "an emote".

[patent vigil]

well boo, never finished them

[inner tendon]

the emote (flex) is great but might even be available now, the Jacket looks like it was made out of cardboard

[wooden marsh]

goddamn i wanted the jacket

[inner tendon]

I do still use it on my OG char, it's true
(stolen from google since I can't be bothered to open the game)

[muted ginkgo]

Can you join normal agents in a raid with an hardcore agent?

[cedar yacht]

you can

[wooden marsh]

nah man they did the jacket dirty

[muted ginkgo]

Thank u

[inner tendon]

Hey everyone has that one specific look that you love, that Jacket's a part of mine.

[wooden marsh]

eh

love the name btw lmao 10/10

[woven quiver]

Is there no barber in the white house when you first roll a character? Can't find the mirror.

[patent vigil]

no, you unlock it later.

[woven quiver]

Ok

[shut blaze]

how well does the bleeding ammo from ongoing against enemies in hard content like legendary mission / raid / incursion, etc..? or better off use a different set?

[patent vigil]

better with a different set.

[mellow trout]

It gives a group wide damage amp so it's good for team play

But for solo you're better off with striker or HF or something

[sour mortar]

ngl low sens feels extremely awful to me

[civic lily]

muscle memory issue

[sour mortar]

it feels so slow

its so impossible to look around and control the weapons.

im going back to 2cm/360

i was trying 10cm360 for the past 24 hrs

[civic lily]

Ur just not used to it

[sour mortar]

i tried it before for 6 months and i got extremly worse at games overtime

i just cant get used to it

[civic lily]

idk what those speeds are anyway(console player)

I just know if u use something for 19293 hours and try to switch it feels extremely unnatural

[sour mortar]

everyone states high sens is awful. low sens is awful to me

i even tried Esports gamers sens and its still awful to me.

[sudden matrix]

Low sense is like 40cm/360 and most consider the upper range of high sense as 15cm/360. I'd maybe use a different description. At this point it's your preference and I wouldn't worry about what people think.

[sour mortar]

welp. people tend to think low sens is the best for everyone. when i say i run 2cm360. i get shut down. hatemail (not from this server but in general). i do the same exact thing as low sens players. sure i dont have the Esports godlike control. but its enough where i can do great. im like tryna be a hardcore Esports demon at games in general.

sure my tracking and control needs to be better. low sens wont help me achieve that compare to you.

[sudden matrix]

Then don't worry about it. Just play and have fun. I would say that claims about using an absurdly high sensitivity is just always going to be met with that tho.

I only take claim with the 2cm/360 can perform the same with muscle memory. That would need backed up.

[plucky pelican]

What gearsets shoudl I shoot for in the end game? I'm running heartbreakers/Steelworks, and while i'm hard to kill I think my damage in high end content is lacking

[cedar yacht]

Well what do you want? HB is a good gearset because it offers both good damage and survivability.

[sudden matrix]

HB should compete pretty well in all solo heroic content. What high end content are you after? Also your current set up could use tweaks to gain a lot.

[plucky pelican]

I'm open to most things, but i wanna build around the chameleon, i'm in love wiht that gun

I just know i tried a legendary run with a full team and was promptly put in my place lol

[sudden matrix]

Legendary can be a shit show in mm tho

[cedar yacht]

I agree

[blazing timber]

I agree

But that's what I play mostly

[sudden matrix]

Fast hands here will be your legendary Sherpa

[cedar yacht]

Ready for leg zoo?

[blazing timber]

Ofc you have doubts

We can hh first three rooms than aviary

[cedar yacht]

Well go to #td2-build-advice then pinned comment and theres a spreadsheet showing all upto date builds that you can pickup

[plucky pelican]

Ah thanks! I'll make sure to do that.

[cedar yacht]

I fear the safari room, the alligator pit and aviary.

[azure bobcat]

Hey guys I want to ask something about getting exotics on summit does any exotic drop on summit or specific exotics drop

[cedar yacht]

Just unlucky.

[misty harbor]

imo its totally random drop

[azure bobcat]

I get at Elmo everytime

[sudden matrix]

There are different pools for exotics tho.

General, crafting, exclusive

[cedar yacht]

Did you target loot ar?

[azure bobcat]

Yes

[sudden matrix]

What are you wanting?

[cedar yacht]

Wait are you trying to get capacitor?

[azure bobcat]

Eagle bearer or lady death and Scorpio

[sudden matrix]

Rip

[cedar yacht]

Oh. Eb is only raid and dz exclusive.

[azure bobcat]

Oh

[sudden matrix]

Lady death is a smg, Scorpio is a shotgun

[cedar yacht]

Target smg for lady and shotgun for scorpio

[azure bobcat]

Which exotic can I get from targeted ar summit

[sudden matrix]

Chameleon, Elmo, bighorn (legendary only), capacitor but it's from summit challenges.

[inner tendon]

It should be noted that Bighorn only drops from Named Enemies on Legendary difficulty, not just general TL AR.

[sour mortar]

bighorn, ravenous and EB can also drop from DZ

[inner tendon]

however, the % chance is so low it's not worth farming it.

[sour mortar]

true

[inner tendon]

IIRC it's about 0.024% ?

[sour mortar]

sum like that

EB from DH raid. Ravenous from IH raid and Bighorn from Legendary missions. is the best and the highest % for them. DZ is a chance to get if you dont mind running it but RNG is a thing either way.

[blazing timber]

Safari is ezy

Aviary is the biggest hurdle

[wispy merlin]

woah, legendary zoo

[sudden matrix]

Sub 20??

[wispy merlin]

we can get the gang together

i haven't done sub 20 though

[blazing timber]

We need a reliable foam than btw nice 27mins run

The good thing now is they have fixed every speedy glitch

[wispy merlin]

we need a pro hhf user too

[blazing timber]

That can headhunt on 150ms Ping

[sudden matrix]

Oh good

Can't be me then

Cause I suck

[blazing timber]

Yeah me too

That is why my best is 35 min with a carry 🙂

[sudden matrix]

I'll be your agro speed tank

[blazing timber]

With 69% pfe ?

I wanted to do legendary speeds but can't find someone on same server as me 😭

[sudden matrix]

Just move

Ez problem solved

[blazing timber]

To where ?

150ms servers are pita 110 is still bearable

[golden walrus]

hi guys question, i want to buy TD2 on steam do i just buy ultimate edition and that comes with base game and New York DLC?

[wispy merlin]

yes

[golden walrus]

ok cool thanks

[stray yarrow]

do level matter for pvp

[blazing timber]

SHD lvl ?

[stray yarrow]

ya

[sudden matrix]

Kinda?

I'm PvP you can win with a worse build by playing smart and well but playing against someone of similar skill might mean you end up on the floor more often.

Then there is also expertise. Going against someone who is 25 across all of their gear is even more.

[stray yarrow]

so it depends on how i tackle on the engagement

and what the builds are

[civic lily]

play conflict

no expertise or shd there

[stray yarrow]

is that the 4v4

[civic lily]

No it's the 4v4

[desert frigate]

is there a like updated list somewhere with all brands/named/or even exotic items with their bonuses and what not?

[rugged stratus]

there is a pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice that has all the info. gear/brand/exo/named/weapons/talent and build guids as well

[desert frigate]

alr thx

[keen junco]

for perfect finisher, is it get a kill with the pistol? or is it kill with any weapon and swap?

[cedar yacht]

Pistol kill

[keen junco]

thank you!

[inner tendon]

@tepid trellis To get the "Hunter Killer chest", you need to open the Hunter Cache in the Haven BoO (New York City's main base).
to do that you need to find the Hunters, there's plenty of guides on youtube, just remember that most of them have to be done between 21:00 and 05:00 ingame time.

does anyone have a full exotic list or something?

[rugged stratus]

Check the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice

[wispy merlin]

there are some enemies like dogs and minitanks that don't die immediately upon hp = 0, so after you drain their hp with another weapon, you can swap to finisher and get the proc

it's still important that you get the kill though

[woeful kite]

is umbra good in groups

[cedar yacht]

In what groups

[woeful kite]

player groups because i was told it sucks when you're solo or something

[cedar yacht]

What content tho

[woeful kite]

idfk summit? missions

[cedar yacht]

Well it should be fine for general stuff until you start pushing into raids and legendary

[thorny wraith]

Hi all, couple of questions (new player, SHD 40):

1. How do I know what loot to keep and/or is worth to optimize into a godroll? I’ve been farming for Striker’s and just delete anything that doesn’t have 3x red core. Also what is actually considered a godroll? Right stats at max %?
2. How do I optimize damage? How do I deal damage in general? What I mean by this is: if I make a tank/skill focussed build, how do you output enough damage to tackle max difficulty content? Surely damage is always better?

[static trout]

1. What to keep: This comes down to experience and game/build knowledge. Some items just won't fit into any build despite being godrolled. I've always understood godroll as right stats at max/close to max %.

It goes like this with regards to power:

1. The correct pieces for a build - with correct talent
2. The correct rolls - not perfect - on all pieces.
3. Perfect rolls
4. 1000 SHD
5. Expertise

Outside of that comes game knowledge, how to use cover, where enemies spawn, learning how the different factions play out, learn how to utilise your build.

[thorny wraith]

Lets say I apply the above to the build listed here (https://www.evernote.com/shard/s332/client/snv?isnewsnv=true&noteGuid=17a0ac12-60c8-482a-8195-20f295b79518&noteKey=3b2c6e34ee648b82&sn=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.evernote.com%2Fshard%2Fs332%2Fsh%2F17a0ac12-60c8-482a-8195-20f295b79518%2F3b2c6e34ee648b82&title=Full%2BMeta%2BJacket%2B%2528TU11%2529) and I have the correct pieces and talents, but nowhere near optimized stats/40/1000SHD and almost no expertise. How big of a difference does the latter make?

And, thank you very much for your answers. 🙂

[narrow kraken]

Depends on how far off from optimized it is

1k shd levels def helps but a build that overall is optimized to 20-30% will be lacking a whole lot of damage compared to one at like 70-80%

[narrow kraken]

https://mxswat.github.io/mx-division-builds/#/EwVgtMYMxgjBYAMdwDY6VpZOl8QFzACcCM8kIAHCmOlhvkzgQ5OQgCyZqMO4CkBKMnZwmsXv2bNWAdjLjckuo0HqinODA7LwNaevxEw4KAtidyncJa2X09cMHixWIUuDn3IwZFBpkJzgLTXJwYi0jZBUYoiJ-fy0oUlhkeziLV1w5ADovfLxYIA

Use this website to input your exact build

Then make a copy with it at full optimized and you can compare

[static trout]

(I just wanna note that mxswat hasn't been updated to project resolve)

[narrow kraken]

Thats true but at least he can somewhat compare the damage from a non opt to a opt build

[static trout]

I can't speak for that build specifically as it is an older build from what I can read (TU11, not listed in the build sheet anymore)
And as Hezu said, depends how far from optimized.

If you take something like a Striker build - or a Hotshot Headhunter:
Correct pieces, attributes and talents: You can clear Challenging with no issues and Heroic will be doable.
Perfect rolls: Heroic will not be an issue
1000SHD: You're gonna do stuff a tad faster
Expertise: You're gonna do stuff an extra tad faster

[narrow kraken]

Pretty much sums it yeah, it just gets a bit more iffy if you're doing group/team based things because you might lack a lot of damage in comparison

[static trout]

Oh, yeah, the only content I do in a group is countdown more or less, but it still somewhat applies - the only thing that will be really lacking in group content is headhunter without proper stats etc

[cedar yacht]

well I believe the black dye and the hunter mask is worth over hunter killer.

Pretty sure there is a separate way to earn the black dye, I had it unlocked way before I had all hunters taken out

[mellow trout]

Theres full black and the just normal black one iirc

[narrow matrix]

When does incursion reset

[mellow trout]

Mondays

[raw elk]

what are incursions?

[narrow matrix]

So is that Sunday night going into Monday or Monday night going into Tuesday reset?

[narrow matrix]

Mini raid / stronghold with tougher bosses and need for mechanics to weaken them

[inner tendon]

This is why we use a time-zone after we say a time.

[narrow matrix]

I’m est utc -5

Tldr is it before or after weekly reset

I did all my clears this weekend, want to know when it’s clear to try again for oroboros

[inner tendon]

This is why it's a good idea to ask for specifics yeah, because I'm 15 hours ahead of you.

[narrow matrix]

Eh I was referring to weekly reset 🥲 but my bad

[inner tendon]

All good I was agreeing with you lol.
I did hear that they were thinking about changing the day to match up at some point, but not sure if that's gone through or if it even will.

[sudden matrix]

They should make it match. It's dumb to have to explain one thing being reset at a different time.

[narrow matrix]

If I recall raid resets are Wednesdays … after weekly reset right 👁️

[sudden matrix]

Depends on where you live...

[narrow matrix]

Also didn’t the game used to reset on Thursdays then they dropped on a Tuesday after a delay

[thorn hedge]

this is the iron horse

[narrow matrix]

They go based off the time zone the company is headquartered in 🥲

I believe it’s PDT

[thorn hedge]

its not pdt lol

[narrow matrix]

Whatever 🤣😭

[static trout]

That would be CET then

[narrow matrix]

Oh it’s French I thought it was LA

[sudden matrix]

Sweden pretty sure.

[static trout]

MSV is Sweden yeah

[sudden matrix]

<t:1709020800:t> this is weekly reset

That will display your local time.

[narrow matrix]

So is it Tuesdays or Mondays 😂

[sudden matrix]

Hover over that time

[narrow matrix]

I’m on mobile atm

[sudden matrix]

That's what it looks like for me.

[narrow matrix]

says the same for me

[sudden matrix]

The incursion resets 24 hours before.

[narrow matrix]

Mondays then

[static trout]

The fact it's not just one time deeply annoys me

[narrow matrix]

lol true cause you’ve got raid reset and incursion reset

[sudden matrix]

It's probably because of the issues they originally had with it resetting the box and such.

[static trout]

It's more just, I mean, do like WoW, have weekly maintenance then reset right after/during.

[narrow matrix]

Well reset used to be Thursdays I think

So raid used to reset before the weekly reset

Then they changed it to Tuesday

When I started playing it was Thursday … worked out better cause you had the weekend and the week to play through content for manhunts

[sudden matrix]

The incursion had bugs when it first came out where the box wouldn't reset.

[narrow matrix]

Tuesday u pretty much only got the weekend as dumb as that sounds

[sudden matrix]

So they tried to fix it like 4 times and the reset day ended up being different, I actually think it's different for some people and the box/key doesn't drop at the same time anyway cause it's still kinda bugged.

[static trout]

I think the end chest bug still happens

[static trout]

Yeah, but just line everything up in general with weekly maintenance.

Isn't max roll 170K flat?

[cedar yacht]

[civic lily]

did the arch method in incursion get fixed or smthn? we get killed by mortars when we try

[sudden matrix]

Arch method? You mean doing the fight normal? Mortars when? Martinez rage or something?

[icy notch]

arch method when you stand under the arch in front of them and dps like hell, we wiped from mortars

[low ermine]

I wonder if they will ever fix the skins on the Lefty shotgun

this red aint it.

[sudden matrix]

Well there are 2 sets of 2 mortars at the start of the fight and when martinez goes into rage or you don't kill johnson and he repairs the drone. So unless I could see your fight you either killed johnson and didn't pre damage martinez enough to kill her before she raged or you didn't kill johnson and he repaired the drone.

[brave schooner]

hello guys anyone know why this keeps happening??

check your drivers, verify the files of the game, restart everything.
that fixed it for me.

Anyone ever find a fix for the broken textures on enemy weapons? It looks kinda cool but it's not a feature™

[sterile plover]

Has anyone noticed this before, In the clip the first slow jog movement ends with the char' stopping with a slight bobbing effect before finally coming to a complete standstill... the second from standing still and running to a stop without a the slight bobbing effect before finally coming to a complete standstill... I swear that stopping suddenly like that is something new.. or am i going mad and its always been like that and i just havent noticed it in 5 years !! lol

[sudden matrix]

This happened with the most recent fixes, it bothers me too and people don't seem to notice it.

[sterile plover]

ahh i see... im not going mad then, thank goodness for that... and yes, it is annoying .

[stray yarrow]

how many exotic smgs are there

[willow gale]

lady death
ouro
chatterbox
backfire

[stray yarrow]

damm ive gotten the backfire three times😭

[sudden matrix]

Only two of those are in the general loot pool, then one will add to the general pool after you get it(chatter box), the last one is incursion exclusive(ouro).

[stray yarrow]

no way

the ouro is incursion only

[willow gale]

RIP

[stray yarrow]

where is incursion

[sudden matrix]

North west above the map.

To the left of the NY map thingy.

[sudden matrix]

FYI it's 4 man mini raid basically, you can MM for it but idk it can be cancer, a LFG discord is probably a better bet. Teaching incursions can be under 20 minutes with good teachers/players. Most consider a good run to be under 20 minutes but with really good groups you can get down to around 12 minutes running it normally.

You will run into bad groups and it can take an hour or more with a possible DNF(did not finish).

[stray yarrow]

dude thank you so much

been helping me out like crazy

[nova ore]

Does anybody can explain this?
I was playing legendary tidal basin today and hat to switch to chem launcher but when i wanted to switch back it was locked
The chem launcher was full and i couldnt even change the type of chem.

[sudden matrix]

Just a buggy mess of bugs. Happened to a buddy yesterday like this and it took unaliving himself, being reset in the mission and swapping to other builds before it finally fixed itself. I really thoght he was gonna have to log out.

[nova ore]

Well, atleast i am not alone with this. Hope they will fix it.

[fickle grove]

There's some gear gives you the ability to defend teammates behind you with a shield, and conversely there's also a skill that projects a cone infront of you while using a shield. What are they?

[sudden matrix]

Firewall spec, striker shield, it gives those in the blue cone more damage and things in the yellow cone more damage for you.

[fickle grove]

Ah, gotcha. Thank you!

[stray yarrow]

does it matter what diffculty the incursion is

[sudden matrix]

Nope. I would turn off directives cause they will kinda mess with you at the start.

[stray yarrow]

me and my friend got really lucking in matchmaking

[amber snow]

[sudden matrix]

We'll only know with more time to see how he acts tho.

[turbid igloo]

Question: you can actually shoot mid air grenades?

[true siren]

you can, its not a hard thing to learn but it still takes practice

easier with faster weapons for sure tho

[turbid igloo]

I swear to God i'm playing 5 years of div 2 and i never learnt that

[true siren]

because its not something the game tells you

[turbid igloo]

My deadass thought that red square was just a warning about the grenade

[turbid igloo]

Onde i saw a video from NGN where he tried to shoot a grenade i was confused

[true siren]

it is, but it also is outlining where the grenade is so you can get out of the way or shoot it

[turbid igloo]

Ty aspect for answering my question

[true siren]

you dont gotta thank me

[wraith flare]

theres even a commendation for shooting 5 of them !

[south island]

crap i guess i gotta start all over if i do switch

[turbid igloo]

Yes

[inner tendon]

That would be nice, but IIRC it's something to do with the architecture or something and they've given a pretty definitive "no" for div2.
however, Heartland will have both and I'm almost certain div3 will, when it eventually drops in a few years time.

[turbid igloo]

If only the universe just said "ok" for one time : (

[inner tendon]

luckily these days, getting stuff back is actually quite quick due to Countdown being a thing.

join a clan when you do switch and have them give you excess freebies too.

[civic lily]

no apparel is the biggest hurt

[inner tendon]

and since that SHD 2k is the hard cap for any benefit, that's not even a massive (heh) factor either.
apparel does hurt, but free Events and you can make some cool outfits out of gear+white tier stuff for sure.

jeans+aviators+black button shirt looks dope.

[south island]

i mean i don't have to farm that much in terms of everything in the game i only got like two exotics lmao so switching over might still be good overall

[inner tendon]

Exotics are fairly easy to get, they aren't as "exotic" as the name implies.
Ya might as well swap over if that's what you'll play on more, there's plenty of resources to help you get kick-started on here.

#td2-clan-recruitment will help you find buddies, if you don't have them already.

[agile otter]

Hey guys, how to fix this. I kill all the hunter in WoNY. But i got only 7 off white key. No matter i do still the same. The hunter mission all completed. Cant redo event if i created new character. Hmm

[rugged stratus]

Names of masks. See what you're missing and look up a yt guide for it

Quoted has images of masks*

[fallow inlet]

@agile otter check w/gun runner might not need key

Hey Rivens, Local

[rugged stratus]

Good morning Saph ☕

[agile otter]

Still missing 1 mask i think, but how am i gonna do that, cant redo the hunter encounters anymore :/

[sudden matrix]

Go to where they spawn then.

If it's flagged completed and you don't have keys/mask they usually show up where they spawn the hunters for that puzzle.

The mask is called "DRIP" that you are missing btw.

[agile otter]

This is where they spawn 4 hunters right, when i flip the switch (completed the shoting the target on the windows)

[sudden matrix]

That is not where you get the "DRIP" mask....

[sudden matrix]

Go check that waypoint.

[agile otter]

ok i'll try

thanks

[sudden matrix]

Let me know how things turn out.

[golden walrus]

i havent played division since release of 1, just purchased 2 today with New York DLC. is it hard to get started? any youtube videos or reddit post worth looking through to get an idea of what to do?

or should i just dive in and learn as i go

[leaden condor]

Just dive in focus on the main story then DLC

[golden walrus]

alright will do, does it matter if i do mostly solo or should i try group up?

[sudden matrix]

If you don't mind solo it's good, group is my preference but a level 30-40 in your group is going to carry you.

[leaden condor]

Solo is fun, group might be too easy if you go with people who already did it and started the looter shooter part

[golden walrus]

aha i kinda want a challenge and grind so i dont mind doing solo

[sudden matrix]

Yeah just enjoy the sights and story imo, most people take 20-40 hours to play thru the story depending on how many flowers you stop to smell.

[golden walrus]

ill sniff em all kek

[leaden condor]

There will be more than enough grind later on, if you are in a clan you might find someone playing the story on a second char.

[golden walrus]

right, i dont mind doing solo as long as the game is enjoyable in that way. because id rather learn the basics and all then head into clans and groups with some knowledge atleast

[sudden matrix]

Yeah and don't concern with builds at lower levels cause they don't really exist until you hit endgame. Just put on gear pew pew and have some fun.

[finite tinsel]

[golden walrus]

[heady ember]

Hey there. I recently started TD2 again with a fresh character. I hit lvl 30 before starting the endgame. I thought specializations unlocked on lvl30? Or do they unlock on beating the main story?

[sudden matrix]

WT5 I believe.

[heady ember]

Lol no. I remember fighting the tusk with specializations.

If any, then it should be wt1. But i thought it was before.

[mellow trout]

isn't it just whenever you clear the capitol

[inner tendon]

That's lvl 30 yeah.

[sudden matrix]

Might just be WT it's been like 5 years.

[inner tendon]

World Tier's are when BT show up.

it should tell you to go to the White House when you can get one.

[heady ember]

And do you know if that is the moment specializations become active?

[inner tendon]

^

I have not played the World Tier stuff in almost 6 years, but a run-through could be fun for old times sake.

[heady ember]

I just unlocked the strongholds. So i guess i have to finish the game first.

[mellow trout]

are you pre level 30

[finite tinsel]

I'm soooooo bored

[heady ember]

Im 30.

[rugged stratus]

sorry in advance for a slight spam...

Invaded Grand Washington Hotel this week.
if you need to start the Nemesis sniper project or need the blueprint, this is the best week to do that.
even without all the parts, once blueprint is in hand nemesis can drop from MMR target loot.

[sudden snow]

tbh, Strained is kinda not well enough with fast-rpm weapons

[wispy merlin]

strained is still top tier on famas

[sudden matrix]

Yeah strained on a full red build with 60% CHC is going to net you the most damage vs any other talent regardless of weapon RPM, if you wanna argue that you kill things so fast you don't use even half a mag we are into first world problems and you don't even need a damage talent at that point.

[junior plank]

ended up getting BP then went into countdown and got it first drop

[rugged stratus]

very nice🍻

[static trout]

Any build that just "breaks the game" with the current event?

[worldly fjord]

good old hotshot

[rugged stratus]

Not really. Everything works about the same

[static trout]

Thought so. Move and cover to cover more I guess. No melee build of any kind ?

[civic lily]

just punch or c2c next to someone every so often

If you don't then you take a bunch of damage

ez and balanced event

[rugged stratus]

It's just too bad its 7+ weeks till Hollywood

[static trout]

I very quickly feel this even ain't for me tbh, seems pointless to stand in cover, shoot, then "oh gotta pulse" then you cover to cover somewhere random.
You guys can have this one

[sudden matrix]

I mean this is most GE aside of reanimated and golden bullet for most people.

[rugged stratus]

Countdown faster than any of the GE for grinding exo anyways. Do it for the fun or skip it, doesnt matter much

Matchmaking will be pretty slow without event on tho

[leaden condor]

any reason why I should mute voice lines ?

[rugged stratus]

Personal preference

[civic lily]

The pulse makes the enemies take a bunch more damage and it disrupts them for a second and the effect can be chain killed

this is like more balanced golden bullet

[tiny stump]

I like it. Plus they doubled the pulse radius or something
