thats what i do too
i have several times more hours than you tho
but so far i got like 1 chc, 2 burn rez, and maybe 1 skill hate i think
yeah but still
can somebody please help me with these stupid hunters
do you at least have mods that are close?
nope
aw man
imagine not dropping a single pfe mod in 500+ hours
Idk I got 13% pfe at shd 30
thats insane
I had all max chd mods before 1k
anyone?
im at shd 900
Play more legendary
i cant handle legendary
I usually get at least 1 max mod per run
deader than my expectations for future
Ton of max skill mods
not when i'm around
You are in the other discord as well try that
hold on, if you get 1 per run, and with 600+ mods i couldnt even get all i wanted, how did you get all you wanted ? did you do 1k legendary runs ?
another hour wasted to nothing.
which hunters are you doing
oh christmas tree quest is annoying
dont bother joining me for at least next hour.
memorizing the order of what window targets to shoot is awful
i still havent done the 4 hunters of ny
the steps are insane
i dont even know how people actually found that
yeah it took me 3 tries just to get the hunters to spawn. then i finished them off easily because they split up and all did their own thing with very little agro on me
IT TOOK ME 4 TRIES TO KILL ONLY ONE
AND HE DIDNT DROP A KEY.
Im gonna carve my eyes out
the key isnt great tho
damn. help would be good. i had a vanguard tank to help me by giving me constant bonus armor
the gun it unlock*
you cant complete everything in division 2
I can try my best to atleast do one thing right.
its one of the biggest pain in the butt moments of the game spawning those 4 hunters
let me know if you get to the hunters tho
I just wasted an hour for nothing.
gonna bash my head against a wall while waiting.
i would help w the quest but i dont remember it now
ok i should be around
I dont even know what to use besides scorpio
are you playing on normal? it'll be a lot more doable
play on normal
def
oh I did.
other than death
just the mask and key
if you did, you should be able to kill hunters
they arent that hard on normal
THERES 4.
THEY SPAM ME DOWN WITH DRONES AND RIOT FOAM AHUGODEKLGHJNAE:GTYA
I even got the traps out for them but guess what?
pointless.
they wont follow me
only 1 did.
other 3 just stuck together
then foam them and shred them
even running didnt help since they just spammed abilities and the emp whatever the hell it is that somehow affects shields
how do you shut down a shield dude what?
How does TRAP not get affected by EMP but a shield does.
after they deployed it still works
they missed it then
idk man, i had traps being emp before
they dont get EMP'd after they split
they cant get hacked also
(YET SOMEHOW A PIECE OF METAL GETS DISABLED)
((but then again im talking about a game where you can revive your teammates by just pressing your watch like 6 times))
(((or a shotgun that literally poisons, electrifies and confuses your enemy)))
whatever you get the idea
another painstaking hour of waiting...
i mean you can also shoot anyone in the head and they dont die
and you can carry 150+ items
including guns that weight 20kg
that logic applies to a few too many g ames
or infinite pistol rounds
or creating ammo out of thing air
or EMP waves not affecting you (or your own allies)
but that would literally be trollable..
or you carrying a bucket of lava from raid for some reason
or for some reason your morality not making you wear more than 2 rare trophies from enemies (2 exotic limits unless you swap)
theres definitely more points to be made here but I dont wanna be more obnoxious than I am right now
I just dont know what to do for the next hour dude.
alright gn
just grind shd, i got all my best mods from proficiency caches 
idk if I should annoy you so we can 3v4 the hunters from christmas tree so uh
i can run an immune foam builds and stick them in place XD have you already got a group going?
ok , give me like 5min to finish eating and ill join in on jd
oh no its fine
im still waiting on night.
might annoy you to help me also with the NYC ones if they are difficult
if you chill with that
ima take down washington monument.
shoot me an invite. /invite localdeck
ok i need a minute
its not letting me join. i sent a friend request. accept it and i'll hop in
already done most
its just 1 I can handle most likely deal with myself
oh ok let me know im standing by if u need
YW brother 
I hope I sent it to you and not your twin brother though that would be really awkward
i got it
It's not though?
that is a late response ngl but uhhhhhh
yeah I may have overreacted.
why are lion eyes in a joint restaurant fridges though...
I'm at work so can only message when I'm not busy
ah ok sorry also
It's all good
The other discord is great to LFG, a lot of times people are in the division and chill VC and you can just join and ask for help
also whats a holster rind?
So I’m curious, as a low level could I join someone’s summit game to make use of the targeted loot system or does it only work as a host?
Targeted loot is player specific for areas you can pick your own
- don't you need level 40 for summit..
but yes targeted loot is local
Want to go after certain exotics, need a clan that's active midnights est where should I ask or is this the right place?
Ah ok thanks, never used the feature years ago back on PS4, then again I don’t think I even knew it was a thing
Good to know cheers
pretty much garbage
The utility they offer doesn't really outweigh the benefits of other exotics.
Plus the amount of builds that would benefit from certain attributes make the kneepads practically a null option.
Also because they rely on map design, they're inherently weak in very specific areas where vaulting isn't really an option.
Either because none of the environment has vault obstacles or vaulting would put you at a disadvantage.
Cover-based shooter btw.
Same case with acosta kneepads
I know the effect also applies with CtC movement too, which is good because CtC can be great.
But It's not worth 25% Bonus armor or a reload, especially since a reload can be done anyway when doing CtC. Not like you can shoot anyone when you're doing it CtC.
So yeah... at that point your really only getting 25% bonus armor. And if you're using a red a build, that's hot garbage.
25% Bonus armor is like... the equivalent of maybe 2 or 3 seconds extra out of cover when under fire. It's just not good talent.
At that point you might as well up it to a brainless 100% bonus armor buff and like... a 20% damage amp lasting 5 seconds with a 15 second cooldown on the amp and 30 second cooldown on the bonus armor.
You'd get a hell of a lot more usage outta that than the way it currently is.
That's basically System Corruption with it's backpack
Devs need to do to exotics what they did to all weapons and take a good long look at what exotics are being used and which ones aren't.
Because the ones that aren't are in desperate need of a rework.
Ninja kneepads aren't remotely worthy of being an Exotic as is.
The irony would be that they look at all the exotics and nerf the ones that are most used.

Speaking of, what would you guys think if Memento got adjusted? More specifically, if each trophy collected added 0.5% damage as an amp rather than flat weapon damage?
And I mean that as a collective amp too. Not like Heartbreaker which was broken because it amped each of its own stacks on release.
better way to word it is exponentially-stacking (like pre-nerf HB/Striker) or additively-stacking (like what we have now).
it'd bring more value to DPS builds, but effectively nerfed for headhunter builds
But why?
Gotcha. Thanks a bunch guys.
Can you transmog exotics?
I assume you don’t get the appearance from them to put on non exotics just that you can transmog over them
You can (could?) do it with 1, but it's 100% a bug and will almost certainly be fixed.
If you pick a different backpack and change the appearance slot, then put on Memento, it'll carry over the appearance of the last backpack.
Ah ok
how do I get Named Kard?
dz exclusive
pain.
yes
Named caches are your best bet
whats the least populated DZ/most passive or PVE dz
Just farm global event and buy named caches
fair
You don’t want to farm DZ unless it’s Targeted for Pistols. Then you take what you can get.
In the context of looking for a kard custom
thisll take a while..
Probably
none, they all busy
getting these stars will def be a pain.
Anyone know how to get the 3 Leon Kennedy pieces? I purchased Hunk’s set in the shop, but I can’t find Leon’s rpd apparel anywhere. They’re not in my owned items either. I also have the dlc but I haven’t actually started it yet. Do I have to go to NY to maybe get it?
wait how do I change polarities of hostiles?
IIRC, melee does the trick
yes
this will def be obnoxious to get
either mortar or HS builds
HS?
Headshot
h.
I have no idea what they mean by that though
I thought we all knew Hotshot was abbreviated like that 
guess it's just me then...
I mean even if you said hot I wouldnt understand cause dementia
Ah true. Abbreviations are hard sometimes tbh
or not daily
HS is ambiguous enough that i don't use it
HH only means one thing, and HHF is even more specific, but hotshot is short enough to spell out
Quick one, scorpio is in the world loot pull so i can farm it via countdown and other means right?
Yes
thank god, thought i was grinding countdown without knowing
Merely curious.
it's just changing one buff type to another, which on the surface looks like it's nothing but it changes important synergies
grinding countdown will give more named caches per hour compared to grinding GE... probably be fastest to get kard custom to drop.
keep an eye on cd vendor weekly as well. it regularly has dz named items for sale, and ive seen kard up there a few times
sorry, whats CD again?
countdown
Can someone remind me again how blueprints drop in Descent? Is it a reward from taking out Nemesis or making it to specific loops?
Nemesis right?
And once you have lots of NSA Tech currency, you can buy reconstructed caches in the Descent vendor.
Of course, that requires lots of farming, so I'd imagine it's not a popular choice
blueprints are in reconstructed caches ?
yes
well, only a few moure hundred to farm to get all the upgrades before i buy thoses
back before they buffed the heat% from easy and medium rooms we kept farming loop 30
whats on loop 30 ?
going up to loop 30 gets you the most chances for recon caches
oh you get recons caches on deeper lvl
yes
i need to get better then
i dont know anyone to play with
last time i matchmake they were so fkin bad
we died first loop
also it makes enemies so much more tankier
just link up with me next weekend
if there's more who can join we can even do 4 man
sure
I'd love to join
Awww :/
Ok, alright lol. I'll be ready for it, then
it's a loop 30+ run
sry for the joke i was bored xd
I managed to get to loop 18 solo, so I'll try my best.
Hi, was curious cuz I've been getting different answers. Where can I start a seasonal character, and can I make a hardcore seasonal one?
it's not in this season yet
Seasons 2.0 disent start yet it's next seasons ans we dont know anything yet
When ppl ask for an exotic seeker for ftc what does that mean ☠️
ftc = first time clear
Seeker???? Is that an armour piece?
exotic seeker probably just means your looking for the raid/incursion exotic
AGH
yeah they just want people that need the exotic locked behind the content
I thought the obvious but wanted to clarify
tho now im thinking
what if we had exotic mods
could be cool
and completely useless prob but still cool
cant activate anderson bounty
Cool idea
even though i found the location
Isn’t that apart of the new update
?
Where ppl couldn’t access
wdym
have you done new york ?
there is a bug right now with this manhunt iirc
^
next patch should fix it
yeah then you're bugged, you need to wait next patch
damnit
What is the real endgame in this game?
I.E, What do you do after you hit max lvl, and have maxed library and bis gear/mods for the build you want to play, whats next?
Pls @ me
raids, incursion, legendary, countdown, summit, puzzles, manhunts, descent
expertise also
also dz with pvp
Collectibles: comms, commendations, speed runs….
There’s plenty to do depending on motives.
The real endgame is the friends you made along the way.
u guys got friends ?
Leveling Expertise is probably the "real" end end endgamee
I am sort of conflicted rn, i feel like these modes have little to no replay value after doing them a couple times and maybe in different builds, at some point it will get repetitive no?
i mean, not really
if you get tired of something, try another
try as healer, tank, dps, etc
you underestimate the actual replay value, but it does vary from person to person
but yeah nobody has the same feeling when replaying it
yes and no, change it up, do different types of activities in order to not get bored. Ultimately, looter shooters are about grinding towards an "end goal" which is different for different players. If y ou are bored of the game, and have reached your "end goal", then you can say you have "completed" the game.
its ok if you dont like replaying it
Games like this end when you are ready to move on effectively.
yeah basically
once you consider you completed the game and you dont enjoy it, move on to another game
you can do a legendary with many different builds, some are okay with finishing a legendary and going to the next, some aren't okay until they can do it the fastest or using a specific build, etc.
again it's up to you to decide, this applies to all other categories
Hmm
I am a avid shooter looter disliker ? i have tried many shooter looters many times in the past and it never jelled, but this game did, this game has really awesome designs and some aweful ones but the 150~ hours i spend on it was worth it regardless
I will say, games this like are generally more fun when you play with a group of people you enjoy playing with.
When people to play with are the reason to log on, you will never want to log off.
oh for sure, i had daily 12 hour gaming sessions with my friends
But seriously no toxicity, if you feel bored and ready to move on, do it!
Games are meant to be fun, if you are no longer having fun, move on to where you can find fun.
yeah for sure, i will deff hop on with friends from time to time
also you can stop playing and come back later
new expansion should drop next year iirc
or come back every season to see whats new
I still play Div1 from time to time.
Survival in Div1 is one of the best game modes in any game ever, but no bias of course.
i mean its also the first extraction shooter too iirc
and for the first of its kind, its really good
Did exotic drops get nerfed in CD? I've gone like over 15 runs dry which is unusual. I usually get at least one every 4 runs.
Even my driest run was at most 7.
It’s a bug
Well shit. When did it get discovered? I'm assuming Devs are aware of it?
First I’m hearing of it
same, its been a minute since i went into cd tho
I bring it up because I literally just noticed that over the past 3-4 hours of farming CD not a single exotic has dropped.
And then I thought about yesterday and it occurred to me... "Wait. I didn't get a single drop yesterday either?"
So at first I thought it was bad luck with RNG, but this seems kinda fing sus.
So yeah. I figured I might as well ask and see if there's something up that I'm not aware of.
Like... it's one thing If I get several drops and none are what I'm looking for.
But not a single exotic over like 9 hours of farming? Something's gotta be going on, right?
So if it's a bug... then yeah, that'd make sense.
im not seeing it in trello board or 21.2 patch notes 
i dont really doubt it , but it might not be widely known or reported
yeah, but the frequency you originally mentioned lines up with what i was getting previously
I did get a Memento two days prior, but at that point it's +12 hours of farming for what amounts to just a single exotic drop. So something's up.
i know the gear types do have a larger pool of total items compared to something like mmr/smg/ar pools
I got it farming for a Sacrifice chest.
sounds about right
Welp... What's the next best for farming Exotic components? Just keep running CD and buying caches?
yeah, cd still an exo every 30 mins or so. personally i just do my daily/weekly projects for the components and sometimes random drops
projects across 4 alts*
I could say DZ exo runs, way quicker and super efficient
Eh... not a fan of DZ.
Mind if I dm you?
I don't, but I've never set foot in the DZ aside from the tutorial. That's how much I hate it. Never enjoyed setting foot in there.
Still lv. 7 DZ rank, lmao.
Ay up anyone know if or when there's gunna be a patch for the invaded missions and control points thanks
Yes there is, was planned for today but delayed (they must have found some issue with the patch) so we don't know when it'll drop.
Cheers thought it may of been delayed tbh
Hey Kettle, Local 👋
Hey Saph
Good morning Saph ☕
Hi saph
Local is making tea in a kettle from the looks of it
Hello community! Noob here. I started stage 1 of field research for a gunner. I've completed the first mission twice, once on hard and once on normal but there's no credit for a Roach boss kill. Apparently, Roach isn't always there to get kill credit. Is that correct?
Depends if the mission is invaded or not - when you select the mission on the map, it lists which bosses are present on the left hand side. If you don't see the boss you want, go to the mission options and 'toggle mission mode' to check other versions of the mission.
It is invaded
A simple clue for field research-related bosses is the colour of the mission icon - if it's red, you'll need to toggle until it is pale blue.
Toggling worked. I see Roach is there now. Thanks!
I notice certain aspects of that mission has changed a bit. I haven't had to place explosives to open a wall until this time through the mission.
Also, first time with protecting President Ellis.
Same location, different mission.
Roach is dead. Credit received. Now to get credit for 19 more mounted gun kills.
Can that be done with a turret?
A mounted turret yes.
Most people run Roosevelt island (normal mission mode on whatever diff you want) and at the end of the mission they use the mounted gun to kill people and wipe before they finish the mission and repeat until they have enough kills.
It appears stage 1 of gunner field research needs to be in Bank Headquarters.
No clue what you mean by that.
I start by clicking Progression the click on Field Research: Gunner.
Think of these as two separate bullet points for stage one.
Okay, then Roach is only in Bank Headquartes. Mounted gun anywhere.
Yeah, there are tons of spots where you can use them, I've suggested one already but if you know or like another have at it.
No problem, tons of people are hanging out in here and willing to help with anything so please ask, you'd be surprised at how much time/pain you can save.
I think I'll go to the summit for the mounted gun part and collect targeted loot in the process.
Nope, it doesn't work there for mounted gun kill credit..
I don't recall any mounted guns in the summit. Try the Navy Plaza control point, there's one facing in the direction the attacking wave comes from after you've cleared the defenders
Okay. I just learned my turret isn't considered a mounted gun.
Fallen cranes and radio mast CPs also have mounted guns available
Construction site CP as well. The normal version Roosevelt Island mission
Is there any gear that’s good to get in the new season just getting back in to this game ?
Check out the 📌 Spreadsheet at #td2-build-advice
i farmed dz when it was targeted pistol for a few hours the other day, and i couldnt drop a single orbit revolver
did i miss something ?
Maybe RNGesus didn't like you back then
i have also another question
when i go to dismantle stuff, it keep saying im at cap for some ressources, but when i look, no ressources beside hard wired tech is at cap, and im not dismantling any hard wired gear
can i know what material i have at cap ? when i check i see nothing
like at most im at 80% of the cap
thats too bad. orbit was on sale at the cd vendor a few weeks ago. its worth checking weekly 💯
probably protective fabric or receiver components or both if dismantling a mix of items
Nope, none was at cap after dismantling like by a jugé marging I had maybe 50% of the cap
i think countdown is the best way to farm
hi every one i have deconstructed my nemesis if i redo the invaded stronholds will it give me the parts again , thankyou
Def not since it's dz exclusive
i realy messed up
Yes it will
thankyou buddy
But you have to wait for the right ones to be invade
yes got that thankyou all 👍
yes it is.
buy named caches. thats how i got them.
man there are 100+ named item, if i cant drop it in dz with tl on pistol, why would u think i'd have more luck in named caches ?
they also cost so much i would have to run cd forever
just saying that u can get them in named caches man but thats up to you.
You'd be surprised how many DZ exclusives can drop from named caches
No reason not to buy them anyway it's free
Yeah. Thats how i got most of them or just PVP.
@marsh tundra maybe ask people on LFG To help u in DZ Farming.
did any of you read what i wrote at all ?
xd
me : damn im unlucky with the drop rates
you : just be more lucky lol
yeah just be more lucky.
thanks i'll do that
how can i finish the riker's confused league the fastest? cause i didn't do the last week one
ight
you dont need to redo the project. it will drop from mmr target loot since you finished it previous and have the blueprint. just farm it in countdown
How many of each gear mod type should I have?
Depends on your needs, do you PVP? Do you speed run? Do you like to hotswap on the fly? Most of the time 3 of each type is fine with PFE being 6-7 mods incase you want a full PFE tank.
I’ve been having a lot of trouble with Countdown. I’ll load in and be able to move around before others, skipping the cutscenes, not get any loot, not see any sub squads. and most of all I won’t be able to successfully get on the extract helicopter… Does anyone know how to fix this bug?
Hey guys! Long time no play. Can i hit 40 now without wony?
Yes
Noice. How about summit and countdown, can i play those too?
I'm not 100 on summit or cd. Probably yes, maybe someone in this chat can confirm.
On pc im like 4000shd, but quit 2 years ago. I want hop in on ps4 now but i dont want to pay 30$ for wony
I mean game is often on sale, and even if you can play lot of content without wony, you miss a good chunk of content
And tbh pc is much better since you dont need to pay for online service
Yeah i know. I just don't have pc rn
Rip
Summit should work fine. Countdown has been bugged if you didn’t complete wony though. Maybe it’s getting fixed
Thanks guys
I’m looking for the shield splitter AR how do I get it ?
You need to kill the Hunters in D.C by completing the puzzles releated to them. Once that's done, Shield Splittter will be available with the Gunrunner
Thanks dude now I gotta find the hunters lol
You can find a guide on Youtube
lol yh I just thought of it thanks for the advice bro 😎😎
im looking to get back into the division games, i played the division 1 when it came out a long time ago on console, i play pc now; which division game should i get now?
the division 2
ok thanks
both are great games, i say the division 2 because its just newer and it has more players
why are there rogues in league missions :S
Sometimes, Rogue Agents spawn in missions, open world, or even after taking over a control point.
i know but why in league missions if there is a time trial XD
Rogue Agents can spawn in missiosn regardless of whether those missions part of a League's time trial
its full random, so even if the chance is low, it can happen anywhere in a mission or summit
Someone can drop it for you as well
hello, any1 got problem with the bank headquarters not showing as a blue speedrun even though the blue event says it is one? I uninvaded it this morning and it has gone back to invaded this evening
Yeah, there's a bug that resets Control Points and Invaded missions any time you log in. It's getting fixed in 21.2 patch tomorrow
Ah okay thank you. Cant speed run it though as it doesnt have the trophy icon. Thanks for replying
i can only play after resetting pc after pc restart game is jumping and stuttering anybody of a fix please
huh, it seems they should have already fixed this in TU11 (which was ages ago): https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/iwzdan/the_division_2_title_update_11_patch_notes/
Fixed an issue causing Rogue Agents to spawn during League time trials
i'm assuming you're actually triggering the league time trial correctly, if you are then this bug just popped up again lol
this is supposed to no longer be the case, but who knows what happened with these new devs
So, here goes again, I've hit 50/50 CHC on the watch. Should I swap Ceska chest to Grupo (Striker's build w/Oreo) so I'm not overcapped?
You’re only overcapped by like 3%
And its like a very small margin between ceska and groupo
ah, alright
Take your chc x chd for each possible setup to see the best possible dps. I would push cap even with coyote since oreo will be close buff most of the time
RNG trolls me.
Hardest working single item in the game
Is all yellow build for DPS still viable now?
Or is it just strikers?
Striker's is on top of all DPS setups
then Negotiators
It's not just striker, but it is the best dps build by far, other builds are viable
There is an argument that for easier content, like challenging and below, high end red is better, because maintaining stacks against low hp enemies might not be that easy
I mean at that point just fire EP and NYOOOMMMMMM
headhunter
NYOOOOMMM
go back to your ol' headhunter days please
wdym, those days never left
says Rotor blades or headhunter?
headhunting more on the community server 🗿
I'd love to rejoin the community server. Too bad their bans are permanent
…
What?
community discord has a way to appeal bans. just gotta reach out to one of the admin for a link to the google doc iirc.
Yeah, I tried that before, but it didn't work. That was 5 years ago, so maybe it wouldn't hurt to try again
if you need the link i can pm it to you.
Please do
headhunter
Hello everybody, I want to go in the DZ, what is the recomended level to even think about doing runs?
doesn't really matter IMO
Asking cause I got killed every time I tried extracting any kind of gear
dont bother with dz until lvl 40 imo, and even then, dont bother with it until you have excellent gear
I am level 300, have only some gear to farm levels but want to put up a gear for pvp
get a pvp build first, then go dz
Is the control point reset on logout fixed?
when you fix this damn door
Hey guys. How can I max out these?
Through optimization
okey thanks
Your uncle has fixed it
Hey Local, Souless
what's the fastest way to unlock this?
Control points on heroic.
ah okey, thanks.
how can i max this no option for it
you need to have it maxed in librairy first
Good morning Saph☕
ty ❤️
The blueprint for these also drop from challenging (level 3 ) control points
After finishing the warlords of NY campaign. Is there a way to play the narrative from past seasons? Is it still in the game? and if so how do i do that (chronologically) if not, do i go to youtube and play the current season?
go to manhunt menu on map, then look at legacy manhunts
it will give you the last mission
I have an issue with an alt thus far, just hit 40 today (on the alt). Patch notes say "The SHD Watch will now be unlocked after completing a side mission upon reaching level 40." I have completed the Keener mission to end WONY, two side missions and have not unlocked my watch on the alt yet.
Check DC and see if there's a new side mission there
boosted character, so DC has all the side missions
Look up NGN on youtube. Tons of lore videos to get the full story
can the scanner skill have tangible upside at any stage of the game or is it always just for info
no dice, can try restarting game, likely have to figure out which side quests massive means, they say "a side quest" in patch notes, but may mean "a specific type of side quest"
might be the new rabbit hole side quest at white house
Did that.
then idk
Me neither, trying to figure it out. New patch, new problems.
If overcharged I think it gives a damage bonus. Otherwise it's just info. Assuming regular pulse
15% amp on OC and also flatline is a solid talent on weapons.
Anyone know where i can see the remaining time on the current season either in game or if someone knows the date?
What is that Gunner reward in the top right corner?
the spec is unlocked
🤔
gunner is the specialization you're doing the field research for right?
the field research unlocks the specialization
if you don't have ultimate then you have to do the field research to unlock it, so that's the reward
What's the significance?
you get to unlock the tree
like think your skill tree from other mmos, each spec like gunner has a spec tree
gunner's tree grants a few good buffs for solo play and/or for dps roles in teams
that's the significance
Sorry, that splat on the wall as it went over my head.
what last quest
okay, what made you decide to do the 5 stages?
the roosevelt island
yes it was there
remind me what it is again
I did the 5 stages because it was in my progression.
okay, so those 5 stages when done will unlock the gunner specialization
Something neutralize Jon "Lykoi" frank with the mounted gun on Roosevelt island
technically you only do them because you need to unlock gunner
What difference should I expect now that it's "unlocked"?
I thought I was using it.
did you buy the ultimate edition?
Just the game with NYC.
do you have the minigun?
yes
then it's already unlocked
Always had it.
the research is optional
NYC started me at 30.
that's not what it is
30 gives you the base specializations, gunner got added later
but anyways if you have gunner unlocked already, you can still do it, there are some other rewards like apparel and some other stuff idr
the main reward is gunner if you don't have ultimate, ultimate just unlocks all the specs for you besides the base ones
Okay, I think I understand.
same goes for the field research of the other specs
yeah, technically it's just optional progression
Field research: Gunner stage 5. The hardest aspect is to neutralize Basilisk on Roosevelt Island by destroying his armor first. I found a way to do it solo in normal mode by going into an area where the boss looses sight of me. When Basilisk looses sight of me he turns around and heads back a short way. I use a scoped marksman rifle as he stands there. Basilisk runs towards me but I'll run out of sight again. Rinse and repeat. Armor is on both arms and legs, helmet and front piece. Front and backpack are one piece.
Can you get the Metallurgical materials from the discovered difficulty?
Just to add to above, oxidizer and stinger hive both can strip basilisk's armor pretty easy and wont kill till the armor is gone
whats the most efficient way to farm expertise without using mats ?
i finally dropped that fkin virginian, and i need to upgrade it
also need to upgrade a shitload of named items
To my knowledge, level a level 30 character to 40, unlock watch, throw all SHD levels into Printer Filament, spend filament on donating materials main character. It's also good to keep level 40 with watch unlock as they will scale levels with your main, so you can get a ton more filament that way as well. The other way I know is doing countdown and focusing an armor / weapon type, mark for deconstruction, then donating the items to expertise menu.
lvling a new character is pointless for me, im not even shd 1k
and countdown doesnt work i need to expertise dz exclusives
If you have 3 alts, every level you get on your main is 3 more to them. So while you get to higher SHD, the alts will scale up with your main and you get 3x the materials post 1k SHD. Your alts, you do not have to put any points into passive stats, and all of the points can go to printer filament.
If countdown does not work, material donation it is then!
man im not past 1k shd
and i cant do mats donations thats the point im empty
all my characters are
Just ignore expertise for now, buy and donate named items but don't worry about anything too difficult to get hold of
Countdown and using items. Secondary and pistol should be non proficient while your primary is your normally used weapon.
Weapons and skills are the biggest hurdle to expertise. Target weapons and use 9999 mats for skills you hate.
Shift skills and weapons often.
Brand and gearset items will accumulate proficiency pretty fast and should be left till the end.
If you get to a point where most is proficient and you have un available items , target gear or skill mods to break for printer filament donations
Also, check the vendors for any named items you aren't proficient with yet, buy 2 per level that you are missing, and donate
No point not putting points into the passive stats. There will be 800 (or 80% if under 1k) that will be locked to the categories.
But I agree, all should be created for the extra points and projects 💯
I agree, only the main character should have points in passive stats.
That would depend on if you use the alt or not, ig... but they are locked to categories.
Personally I grind out a bunch of projects across the 4 alts so they all full 😅
Around 50 easy exo components running 4x projects with alts
Yup, totally fair.
What's the best way to get coyote mask?
Countdown
Still working.?
Would connecting an Xbox controller to a PC allow me to use it as an input source on div2 or would I be stuck on M&K kmly?
You can do that, you'll be better off learning mouse and keyboard tho it's just a better gaming peripheral.
Imo I prefer controller but we'll see, I could see myself using M&K eventually but at first, I'd wanna use something I'm familiar with already
I doubt this guy actually knows with that kind of comment
like he's actually tried it
lmfao
Lol
Being able to bind everything key to do something seems nice but the comfort and ease of use of a controller is something I've grown accustomed to
you can actually use both at the same time. i have 8 programmable buttons on my controller that are available to my left hand. and 5 programmable buttons on my mouse. i mostly do this because i dont have a computer desk and no comfortable position i can play with the keyboard for movement
This is how everyone sounds when they go from something they have thousands of hours on and aren't good with to something else in the first hour or two of play. I say it's best to commit and do the learning curve and you'll be ahead of your controller play in a week or two.
I say it's less worth it if connecting the controller to pc on div doesn't give you any aim assist
Ah interesting cheers Agent
but there's always the story of people dominating without assist somehow
In every game ever

I am not one of those people lol my aim is god awful sometimes even with aim assit xd
if you try it i would suggest disabling aim assist because it tends to pull your reticle away from the spot you're trying to aim for
that's also in every game ever
The few times it pulls the reticle away due to someone quickly running past it at the wrong time
I'm currently on xbox, (I plan to switch PC gaming on Linux whenever I can afford it), should I try disabling it now to start getting used to it?
Yeah I used to turn off aim assit back when I played console.
It's a try it and find out thing really.
At the end of the day it's all preference and if you're casually gaming or wanna lean back and chill just use whatever however.
if you choose to turn it off you will probably have to get used to it and that's just unnecessary in this mostly pve based game
whether the end result actually ends up minmaxing your overall aim or not
I can't play PVP/PVPVE anyways
stopped taking pvp(in shooter games overalll) on xbox seriously after it was possible and not that hard to use MNK as a third party system on xbox
does PS not allow you to play with other people without the equivalent of a gamepass or whatever like on xbox?
yeah you need PS+ to play multiplayer
ah thanks
Hey Souless
they should afaik. both skills attack armor plates before getting into health. just set it to hard and let er rip.
Hey saph
sweaty tryhards playing 13 finger claw with the nastiest flicks
Hey Ducks 👋
Is there a better way to grind targeted loot than Summit or Countdown on normal for a purely solo/"offline" player?
Just use the map TL?
TL on map works too
especially if you need dz exclusives you gotta go there
I mean being able to select what you need, and as I said, solo/"OFFLINE"
ok, first of all, you cant play offline, its a live service game
and targeted loot is random every day at every location
That's why it's on qoute marks.
except summit and countdown
yeah but even quote marks dont make sense, there is no offline, if you're solo you're solo
what do you even mean by offline
I can't play "online" since I don't have gamepass.
I know and it sucks
man just get a pc
div 2 without playing with people or dz is like 10% of the game
barely a demo
Too broke to get one atm, can't work due to schooling and some other bs
tbh you should play something else
there are tons of good games that dont need gamepass
Warframe for example
can you not do summit without gamepass?
no
Only solo
Thats fine
I can do countdown solo too
i mean its pretty bad solo
Summit is mainly a solo thing imo
But I can't access DZ at all
so i am back after a pretty long break, can someone remind me what daily things I should be doing? 😝
Has anyone encountered an issue where Div2 continuously crashes upon character selection? (fixed by disabling ubisoft overlay)
is it no longer possible to max attributes and extract them for your library?
Really depends on how much you are going to play daily, your overall goals and your current character progression. I would highly suggest completing projects. The project menu can be found at the map screen.
I do not believe you can upgrade an attribute then save that attribute to library, you have to get the stats naturally rolled in order to add to library
at least swap speed isnt really something anyone typically uses anyway. but i could see it being annoying if you want 100% full max library
Each time I'm on the loading screen, crashing to desktop at exactly 9%
Tried 4 times already and its consistent. What's going on?
try disabling Ubisoft Overlay. idk where that is but someone did that and got fixed
It is disabled. But restarting the PC helped.
nice
What's the new shd dz bracket? Is it like shd 1-100 and so on type of bracket?
Yeah
I didn't notice this until you mentioned it
Div1 feature. So that you end up with people within the same rank bracket
Game is crashing left an right. Man what a mess
Only if they have Artificer Hive
Why do people use Fixer Drone is beyond me (I see it so often in Countdown)
idk either
enemies just see you so much faster if you have the drone out
but ig they haven't found the other skills worth their time yet
healing: 1,200 HP 
i cant play the division 2 on my pc it was on loading and it crashed idk what happened
with charged memento+tech class free core/set for repair you can get about 3% armor regen equivelant on an all red build, without dedicating any attributes. there are worst skills tbf 🤔
or just kill faster and use gunner
depends on what youre doing. many ways to build..
Expertise or misguided
it's mainly just people not knowing drones get them aggroed on much faster, i get annoyed whenever i had to carry lego and people get aggro way too early
turns out they just see the fixer drone
Gunner/palisade>
To proc companion
trade offer
you get free healing and companion proc
i make enemies see you faster and take up a skill slot
thats more an education issue that would be more lego specific.. heroic aggro doesnt really matter... hell with nego you got all the aggro anyways
nah i agree it's niche. i just don't see that it heals much anyway
i used it a fair amount, it wasnt bad having a combined 6% between memento and the fixer 
basically always topping off
i won't dispute that as i play completely differently to normal people anyway
it dont fit too good on a mortar build tho, and thats basically what i been using for a good while now 
does the mop help?
a little, i have pretty good cover use so not getting hit a lot
usually on cap for higher damage potential
too bad cover use doesnt save me from blowing myself up tho 😂
Truly a low ceiling moment
@wispy merlin I will start running a drone
bombardier drone
@wispy merlin sir last chance for zooge
Turning off Ubisoft overlay and/or Steam overlay may fix the issue.
What's the side mission for obtaining watch?
How u do that
lmfao
Tobey Maguire's Peter is so quotable it's great
i love Sam Raimi trilogy
all 3 were great regardless of the flak the 3rd gets
Ubisoft Client settings and Steam settings.
this should be everyone's thoughts nowadays
thats another one down
Console needs to support kbnm on division 2 man
Dude all the people on controllers would get pummeled lol
that's another reason for them to not enable cross play
How can I reload public executions and what are the fastest ones to farm?
Depends if you have classified assignments. If yes, PE W of Mexican Embassy Classified Assignment.
If no, PE SW of DZ East entrance
imo I would just restrict crossplay only for pve stuff. PvP would only be separated for consoles and pc.
The gap between KBM/Controller skill seems to be closing more and more as the years go by tbh. I think the exaggeration is more PC elitism than an actual massive skill gap now a days.
It's less skill and more pc gets much wider range of input
Hi guys,
Quick question.. Does the server have a daily targeted loot channel?
How do you unlock SHD watch again? Friend reached 40 but he's not earning any exp and talking to quartermaster isnt unlocking it for him 🤔
Allegedly, you do a side quest at 40 now to unlock. But I tried this with an alt post recent patch and just, have not unlocked watch.
The issue is that the gap is being closed by Aim assisst, and a very strong variant of it. In many games controllers are better simply because it plays the majority of the game for the player
Has Docter Home been changed? I thought that the armor they get is x% of my own armor?
Its 10 percent armour iirc
I like how people like to say "PC elitism" while controller players are the majority of people saying "pc is easy"
the PC/controller split is more talked about by controller players themselves
most people on PC accept that aim assist in some games is simply just stronger then any advantage PC has
Why isn't this armor set in the Summit list for farming.
Was probably a reward from a cache tbh
That's it. It was in a cache.
To get 100% complete, do I replay some main missions or try to find the 4 others that I haven't played. Are those the grey hexagons on the map?
I just reached lvl 40. Idk very much about this game. What build should i go for now ?
There are 4 other offsite missions. Grey means completed so do the ones that are marked cyan.
striker
Whatever your play style is
Anyone having problems with just logging in it gets to 10 then game crashes was good before the update
not that just random crashes after im doing stuff
Could ouroboros get dropped anywhere else other than the incursion
No
I suppose 
Breh
I have core attributes maxed out but whenever I try to put them onto something it says this slot cannot be recalibrated why is it saying that?
If it's an exotics you cant recalibrate any stats, and if it's a normal gear you can only recalibrate one stat on it
You can optimize tho but it's expensive
Cheers
And you can only optimize a stat to max if you extracted a max stat on an item to the recal library.
I can't shoot any gun any more, why? Any idea f riends? Some one said that was bc of connection, but I had normal conneciton.
Anybody know how to glitch a mask over a cosmetic mask? I saw someone running around with the see no evil mask but they also had the gear mask showing on top of that! Anyone know how you'd be able to layer them over one another
How do i accept friend refferal invitation? I click on the link and cannot see any accept button on the site?
First time running into nemesis so do people try rush and insta kill the nemesis or survive and win?
It depends on the build and playstyle. I try to survive, and if given the opportunity, instakill the nemesis
i remember at the end there was 2 laptops just watched a guy buy explosive rounds etc...
man maybe it had shock rounds if they work on the nemesis
i think nemesis immune to shock
yup, fire rounds are the best choice
kk
Can only be done on female characters
Hey Kettle 👋
hey Saph
Say I have a item I want in dz and I’m in the safe house
The item is in my contaminated bag
If I log will it still be there when I get back?
Safe house as in the dz safe house?
If so then you're good.
Yea
Yeah you're good if you logged from the dz safe houze
Do we have a list of brand-sets that were added in the base game, year 1, WONY, and the seasons? I know the gear spreedsheet has a list of the brandsets, but they only show their Cores and their brand-set bonuses
Kinda need em for wiki editing.
i dont think there is a list, might have to check every season patch note release for that
also please edit the spreadsheet cause some are missing for months now
and im too tired to do it
hi, i'm 40 and set the global difficulty to heroic, but all the control points are stuck at level 1, unsure why
That’s not intended lol. I’d try resetting the difficulty again, resetting the CPs, and probably logging in/out.
I haven’t heard of this yet
it's been like this for as long as i can remember so 
its a visual bug, they are still difficulty 4
you fought a boss ?
I'm looking for my last Main Mission. I've completed the following. Which one is missing? Help is greatly appreciated.

yes
then its not normal, you're supposed to get high ends, maybe the bug also affect the loot quality then :/
there are 2 pentagon missions
I read that but there's only one on the map.
did you do them both ?
you're supposed to fight for a fusion reactor in sewers and then on a rooftop
or the other way around i dont remember
vs a maurader
Is the second mission connected to or attached to the first?
In other words, do I have to go through the first mission again?
you need to do the first to unlock the 2nd
if you done the first you should have the last one
unless you didnt complete it or completed it in someone else session maybe
The second doesn't appear on the map like Coney Island Ballpark did.
I guess I'll play the first through again. Thanks.
I saw "Mission Completed".
dont bother doing it on heroic
if you do it on normal you should clear it in less than 10min imo
its not really much
just redo it
@marsh tundra The second Pentagon mission is a follow up of the first after taking the elevator. Now to open the blast door.
DARPA Research Labs
Now there's the other cyan hexagon on the Pentagon map.
Wyvern did nothing wrong. Attacking the BOO was a sound strategy, as the Division already had possession of all the antiviral cylinders, so even if she had heeded Shaffirs advice to "exfil on foot" she would have been doing so empty handed.
thoughts?
Oh my bad, she had one cylinder on her person. Scratch that, Wyvern dun goofed
How much time do I have to finish the season pass?
You have till around late September, IIRC
ah damn okey I still have plenty time
is ubi servers down?
no
How often is the game going on sale in ubisoft connect?
Would be nice if they permanently lower its price since it is 5 years old at this point
Lol maybe. But ironically, Ubi is my least hated publisher
nah, tons of other publishers are better
ubi is def not doing too bad compared to ea/acti/blizzard for sure
but still not doing great
they got SH cases going on
Like which other puiblisher?
I can't quite think of any outside of the usual sony, ms, ea
How much was it?
like 4 or 5e
NY expansion additionally?
Is the tdi kard custom's skill tier still bugged?
It’ll only work when it’s held. As intended. I haven’t ran into any issues with it
Oh, I thought it was all the time, thought it was a bug, thank you
all the time would be busted
like you would just have perma +1 skill tier no matter what
for no downside
at least technician spec has some downside for that bonus
yeah but everyone would run it and forget it
That's true
and the gun isnt even bad too
Oh yeah, it's like my favorite pistol in the game
especially the fact that its a named weapon not exotic so you still can get exo on main weapon
Yeah, I wanted to know how the thing worked 'cause I'm working on a skill/damage hybrid build
i mean
you can still do that
like get the pistol in hand when throwing skills
swap when you dont
Yeah, but that's too much hassle for me
Tbh it’s not worth it for a skill build, but yeah it’s nice elsewhere
Ubisoft Connect down?
I mean, pistol usually doesn't matter unless you're making a pistol build
no, it can matter
like you're in countdown, someone get downed, you have your rez hive, get on pistol to get another stack, rez them, and then you still have it up
Are everlasting gaze and/or railsplitter dz exclusive?
That's only for the kard tho
Both are dz items
Alr thanks
I meant like for any other pistol
Orbit
yeah but any other pistol = nobody cares unless its a pistol build
Yeah
Some ppl will run dodge city holster and keep regulus to be a pocket nuke as backup
Is there a way to make the double barrel good
no
How so
Is there no way cause you just hate the double or is it genuinely shit
It’s the highest damage shotgun. It can be used in PvP. But there’s not really a lot of ways to deal with the reload
Also it has a really tight spread
Isn't there that one thing that speeds up reload the more you reload
Lemme check
Don’t think so
It's either more reload speed as you reload more, or more damage as you reload more
Hmm
Tbh I’d rather run pummel
What's pummel do again
At least half the times you need to reload
Every 3 kills refills your magazine. Plus 40 AWD
3rd attribute needs to be magazine size 
If only there was a triple barrel
If only it had perfect pummel
What's perfect pummel, every second kill?
ninja knee could reload it
Hey your onto something here
weapon handling rolls also increase reload speed, but im not sure how viable it will be in normal gameplay
Is there a double barrel that can roll perfect pummel?
No
viable when everything is tuned to resist vs striker
sounds sketchy
actually, tbh, during this week double barrel wont actually need to reload a lot. golden bullet and all 🤔
If you’re not oneshotting with it you really shouldn’t be using it at all.
yeah you shouldnt be using it anyway
its trash for challenging and above
and for hard and under, its not even up to do the job compared to everything else
use a hh hf build, would be one of the few times this weapon is decent tbf
could still use pummel as well.
The shorty works very well there too
it also has the smallest spread for shotgun
backup boomstick also having highest base damage for shotgun as well
Does anyone know when kenly college is going to be open?
Next week when the Leto trial opens up
do bounties i cancel go away if i try to save them for like tomorrow? or can i just load up on execution bounties
No, they stay
baller
anyone know of a setting where i can lower the volume of the drone?
shotguns are super quite but the drone is louder...
There's probably a sound mix option somewhere
is there an auto loot system if i miss something like components?
everything that's not an item will go to your inventory automatically
like materials, components, Hunter tags, etc
cool
You still have to run over them to pick them up though
i knew i shouldve double checked
one more thing when i get to the stronghold can i solo it?
and is darkzone busy for lvl30-40?
You can solo everything except maybe the raids and incursion
DZ is likely to be quiet in that bracket unless people are using it to quick level
Can't say I've tested that though
this game is gem only thin i hate is everytime i start i gotta go from windowed fullscreen and back to fullscreen
this stops the crashes for me
can play for 8hrs straight no issues
i gotta 2k hours on the first one was the best au dz palyer
Yeah at least it's easy to switch to full screen, just tap alt+enter
just double checking i can only change targeted loot in countdown? wanna make sure the info i find is current
what about roaming in the world singleplayer?
You can do it in summit too
Open map, press R
dont have access to it yet it seems
Not level 40 yet?
No point worrying about builds while you're still leveling, just run whatever you find since it'll all be replaced as you level up
It's not down atm
in 1 min it said server restart
Anyone an idea why all of the sudden im maxxing 4 fps from load up to even in game?
Ive tweaked with my settings, verified files, even reinstalled the game; no go. (PC)
That's just the local server cluster restarting, relogging should put you in the right one
kk
you playing in fullscreen mode?
Ive swapped between all screen modes, no dice
open up task manager and restart your pc sudden 4fps drop something aint right
Just open TM?
Yeah ill tweak that real quick
