[twilit gyro]

Mind dropping one?

[tiny stump]

i'll see if i can find a pic

[twilit gyro]

Sure

[tiny stump]

i deleted a lot of build pics but what i usually do is run 3pc yaahl gear and a 10% (or as high as you can find) pulse resistance mod. the other three gear pieces can be whatever you choose. i've done it in the dark zone with 2 pc yaahl and ninjabike backpack and that has worked fine too

it should prevent HB from stacking up on you and diminishing their damage

although its not perfect especially if they're good at headshots

[twilit gyro]

Im not expecting heartbreaker players to be good at anything
Thanks for the build tho

[tiny stump]

no probz

also its nice bc ppl cant see where you are when they pulse the area

[twilit gyro]

Yeah but you gotta sacrifice some damage right?

[tiny stump]

yes

which is where an expertised ouroborus comes in handy

[twilit gyro]

Where can i get ouroboros

Im running bighorn/eagle bearer with safety distance as my backup

[tiny stump]

oh ouroborus has to be a lucky drop at the end of the paradise lost incursion which can be a pain if you cant find a team. theres a bit of a learning curve

[inner tendon]

Or each boss within the Incursion, but that's a 1% chance (the chest is 10%)

[twilit gyro]

Lets say i find a team, everybody gets a different drop?
Cuz i guess if i was running only for it i can ask for them to share their ouroboros with me

[tiny stump]

yea it can be shared with you

[twilit gyro]

And one more question (i started playing a month ago and just a week ago i hit lvl 40) how to boost up my expertise fast?

[tiny stump]

there is no really fast way especially if you're pretty new. sorry

[tough marsh]

Honestly there is no fast way

[twilit gyro]

Got it

So i just gotta grind these pink materials and donate them?

[tough marsh]

Yeah

[mellow trout]

Heartbreaker is easily countered by pulse res

[tiny stump]

yea i told em

[nimble spruce]

Early stages: buy and donate 20 copies of every named item the be vendors sell.
Craft and donate 20 copies of crafting-locked items.
Farm countdown for a weapon type and donate them all until you have most standard weapons of that type maxed, then switch to the next one.
Brandsets and gearsets take 100 donations instead of 20 so it's a slower farm, or you can use them instead (you'll level faster if you equip multiple of the same set, but it'll work out the same in the long run compared to wearing different sets at the same time).
Donate excess materials to the most awkward things to level (bad/obscure exotics, bad skills, locked items like Enforcer and Stinger)

[twilit gyro]

So replicas have their own expertise?

Or i misunderstood you

[nimble spruce]

Focus farm xp when there's an xp event active (3x coming up soonish)

Not replicas, stuff like Motherly Love and improvised gear

[twilit gyro]

Okay, got it

[nimble spruce]

Run up alt characters to 40, use their watch scavenging points to buy more materials to donate.
Once you have a high enough shd (1500+, the higher the better) you can delete & replace them for an easy scavenging point boost

[bold tiger]

imagine this crappy bug! the hostage i got to talk to died after all was said and done. now i can't complete this activity

[cedar edge]

What am I picking up these egg type things for?

[nimble spruce]

Check your projects list

[cedar edge]

Don't want to! MEH!

loool

AH! Easter event. Who would have thunk it.

[twilit gyro]

What's the reward? I didn't see before logging out

[pseudo tundra]

A helmet with bunny ears

Well its mostly that it has some rags tied that look like ears

[bold tiger]

and a named item cache

[trim meadow]

I extract this few days ago, and today I transfer into new mask. But it;s still in my library

Is it possible or I did something wrong?

Or this is how library and tinkering work, If I extracr something one time I can change anytime and won't lose it?

[gray mason]

Yup, once extracted, you can apply it over and over again 🙂

[trim meadow]

Haha, Yes I love it. Thanks man. It's amazing. All time I thought will wait for right builds now I can apply any on my builds

🥹 Thanks again

[nimble spruce]

You can only recalibrate one stat slot per item though

[trim meadow]

Yeah that's not problem I think

but putting 15% damage is something huge

[trim meadow]

Wait I can change one item

Like if I change core attributes I can't do normal attributes?

Or like one core + normal attributes?

[nimble spruce]

One stat - so either core OR one of the minor stats OR talent (if applicable)

[gray mason]

You will also be able to Optimize the stats of an item (improve an existing stat), all the way up to max. Just remember that you can't recalibrate a stat that you have Optimized, and you can't recalibrate a stat you have Optimized. So be careful when you do either 😉

[wispy merlin]

ah yes, you can't do something and that very same thing /j

[nimble spruce]

In most cases the core is already the type of stat you want, so you recalibrate the talent or one of the minor stats, and optimise the core

[trim meadow]

Can anyone let me know how to optimize?

Here only this 3 option

Oh here

So I can optmize as long as I've the resources right?

[nimble spruce]

Only if you've extracted the stat to your library

[gray mason]

yup, or till you reach max for that stat

And again, if you use optimize, then you can't recalibrate that particular stat.

[nimble spruce]

But optimisation resources are expensive so it's often better to farm on higher difficulties to get better rolls to start with

Then you only need a little bit of optimisation

[trim meadow]

Oh it's haver another level of farming

Damnn, Why they made it so complicated

[bold tiger]

they have to keep the 5 digit shd level agents busy somehow

[trim meadow]

But good part is you don't have to worry about skill tier

skill core attributes have everything

[bold tiger]

i do though, i like skill builds more honestly

[trim meadow]

Can I switch gun mode

auto, single

[bold tiger]

🤔 maybe bog your computer down so auto shoots single shots, but not sure if you'd get to stay in if you do something like that

[nimble spruce]

Nope, except bighorn. Just got to tap for single and hold for auto

[trim meadow]

This gun is amazing, small but so powerful. Anyone noticed?

[pseudo tundra]

It got reworked recently, it was pretty bad before

[trim meadow]

oops my bad mouth

[spare girder]

Quick question

[bold tiger]

quick answer

[spare girder]

If I don't complete the easter project 1 before the next one arrives, will I lose the Headgear?

[bold tiger]

no clue how that'd work, but i think next week you'd just be doing it and hopefully not skipping it or not finishing it

think the first time i completed one of these was for valentines

[spare girder]

I am asking because I only have around 35 eggs rn

And I can't access the game

[trim meadow]

I got 50, Hope can complete other 50 to get those cache

[bold tiger]

there's like 2 missions i think where you could just run into the boss that's usually a chunga with a belt fed lmg

like Grand Washington Hotel

[raw ridge]

Why won't my specialization weapon kills go up from scout week 6? I got 8 and then it stopped((

[slim eagle]

Привіт всім

[nimble spruce]

The event runs for 14 days and there's only 7 days worth of events, if you don't complete it today you'll be able to do 2 days projects tomorrow. You could even leave it for a week then do all 7 projects in one session to get all the rewards

[bold tiger]

i don't recall needing specialization weapon kills for scouts

[raw ridge]

do you remember what was the first one in week 6?

[nimble spruce]

@slim eagle English only in the discussion channels please. You can use your preferred language in lfg and clan recruitment channels.

[cedar edge]

What are the best locations to collect eggs as I do not have long before I have to log off.

[bold tiger]

oh right, you staying in the zone needed for it?

[nimble spruce]

Did you leave the area? Has to be done in Judiciary Square

[raw ridge]

Damn.... Forgot all about that))) Thanks!

[bold tiger]

only one i saw recently. googled "saint division 2" and saw he was in grand washington hotel

just keep shooting his belt and pray kelso doesn't kill him while you're trying to cheese that

[cedar edge]

Thank you Lost. It says I only have 7h40m. I have things to do and I only have 63 eggs. :))))

[nimble spruce]

There's a bunch of chunguses half way through tidal basin when you're defending the npc, you could probably just keep breaking their chains in turn

[bold tiger]

oh Air and space for me had 2 BT chungas

[nimble spruce]

Have to deal with the other npcs at the same time though

[cedar edge]

Shooting chains?

[bold tiger]

yeah, the chungas like Saint and the Black Tusk has a belt that gets fed into their lmg

[nimble spruce]

Weakpoint on a BT or hyena tank: they have bullet chains that they repair when broken so you can repeat them over and over

[cedar edge]

Oh, yeah. The one that makes them stumble?

[bold tiger]

usually runs on their right side from their backs

[cedar edge]

Stumble, maybe not the best definition. The one that makes them kneel down and fiddle with their bits.

[slim eagle]

go

[cedar edge]

So shooting the chains makes them drop more eggs?

[slim eagle]

[bold tiger]

yes, as they feed the belt into their gun again you shoot it off and an egg icon will drop

[cedar edge]

HOW MUCH ARMOUR! Holy mackerel.

[bold tiger]

every. single. time. and you get that lovely eggs dropping around their feet animation

[bold tiger]

no clue, stream video "collect 100 eggs in 1 minute!" uh it's a lot longer than you think buddy

like i feel it takes the npcs 10-15 seconds each time to reattach the belt and probably 1-2 seconds to destroy that belt

i did that method 2 times but one of them i was already 60 in. 2nd time i got to like 97 or something then lost saint but had 3 laying around

[slim eagle]

🥰🤝❤️‍🩹

[sudden matrix]

#divashion might appreciate this more.

[bold tiger]

nods you may love it, but i'm like ewwww why?

[cedar edge]

Tidal was the best for farming eggs. Kept the big dude alive killed everything else and farmed him like a field of corn.

[molten stag]

Hello, I have just reached Lv 30. According to websites, I should've unlocked High-tier Crafting Station but i'm still on specialized with no option for upgrade. Am I missing something? I have only done 1 out of 3 strongholds so far if it matters.

[bold tiger]

old information that you're looking at
last season i think? they made it so we can get to level 40 just being in washington DC

[molten stag]

So I'm stuck on purple station until I reach 40?

[bold tiger]

believe so

[molten stag]

I see. Thanks for the info!

[bold tiger]

heard people say when DCD is invaded running that with 5 directives gets people to 40 rather quickly, never tried it so i have no clue

[molten stag]

Still don't know what directives are. Saw them mentioned a few times

[bold tiger]

there are 5 once you hit 40 that's fairly random out of 10. like the 2 current bugged one is enemies gets special ammo and when you use your skills it's stays on cooldown until you pick up green trophies. they're bugged as somehow even if you turn the skill one off it still drops becuase of the special ammo being on or something
think 1-4 directives increases the amount of experience you get by 25% each while all 5 on gives you 125%? haven't ran with directives in forever since i'm in no hurry with my shd leveling XD

[molten stag]

I see. Thanks again!

[pseudo tundra]

Directives are extra challenge/modifiers you put for more xp and extra loot chance

[bold tiger]

oh it also increases your loot chance? 🤔

[sudden matrix]

Yeah each directive bumps up TL chances you have.

[bold tiger]

interesting. i thought it just increased our experience XD

[sudden matrix]

It does both.

One is stated the other is kinda found out via pick axe.

[spare girder]

So even if I don't complete the first one in time, it will still stay right?

[cedar edge]

Inaya does not seem to do anything for this Project after getting the holster. Am I missing something?

[nimble spruce]

As long as you complete all of them within the next couple of weeks, the specific dates don't matter, you'll get everything

[spare girder]

AYYYYYYYYY

[wispy merlin]

go to the projects desk upstairs

[remote quail]

are the turmoil knees gone ? didn't see mine to claim when logging in

[polar arch]

Is there a reason my SHD tech isn't available for me to unlock my last trap? I have 5 extra SHD tech and it doesn't work for the Trap.

[pseudo tundra]

all trap variants are unlocked in previous manhunt missions

shock in the kajika from the WONY expansion, explosive in schaffer, healing in hornet

[polar arch]

Appreciate it

[heady veldt]

@pseudo tundra

[pseudo tundra]

yeah, you are full of that resource

[nimble spruce]

they're components, used to donate to control points and the weekly shd project

[latent hare]

Is something bugged with call for backup spawns? I haven't played this game in years, but I remember back then that answering calls would spawn you in like a block away from the action so the host wouldn't see you just materialize out of thin air and also so you wouldn't immediately get swarmed by all the enemies that just killed them. But I've answered 3 or 4 calls now since coming back and every time it's plopped me right on top of the host surrounded by enemies. In fact, last time I spawned in ontop of a pair of downed agents, asked the 2nd guy and sure enough he also answered the call, spawned right on top of the host and died. Is this how it's supposed to be?

[nimble spruce]

In my experience it's always spawned you next to the host, but you get a few seconds of invulnerability to get to cover if necessary

[heady veldt]

is it better if I sell or dismantle items at lower level (24) currently?

[slim elk]

50/50

[heady veldt]

k.. was just wondering if the materials play a bigger role later so i would try to get as much as possible.. but as you say 50/50 is probably the best way depending on what I need.

I got some mods now but I'm confused how to apply them. Do I need to be higher level or have any gear requirement in order to apply them?

[wispy merlin]

don't worry at all what you do right now

[slim elk]

yeah, mats are much needed at lvl40 for Optimizing, Recalibration, Expertise and Projects.

Currency also has its place in the endgame content

[wispy merlin]

get to endgame (lv40) and worry about them later

[slim elk]

You apply mods in the inventory, selecting the gear piece and by pressing whatever key it is to Mod

[heady veldt]

got it.. so far I've been only able to change the skin

so i guess it's tied to level and rarity of the gear

[west onyx]

i cant even use the april fools guns for my library? :(

[slim elk]

nope, can't equip them

[west onyx]

u dont have to equip for recal library so I was hoping

[quick folio]

can u change talent on seasonal items (oh carol example)

[rugged stratus]

no

[quick folio]

bet

[rugged stratus]

although, harvest is seasonal and talent is free to roll. so better answer is, it depends

[quick folio]

bet

[rugged stratus]

what we betting on?

[trim meadow]

What should I do with this gun?

😂

[gray terrace]

from what i understand it heals team mates

[trim meadow]

Oh. it's just water gun

wait a minute, gather egg reset everyday?

[karmic hawk]

It provides up to 50% hazard protection to allies you shoot with it

[trim meadow]

yesterday I had 50 now again back to 0

[pseudo tundra]

from what i heard changing builds resets the eggs

[gray steppe]

hey chat
where can i acquire the decoy skill

[sharp osprey]

@gray steppe Theo manhunt mission in wony .

[gray steppe]

ah
alright then
thanks

[tardy hound]

I showed them love and they showed man hate, these days, that is expected (real)

[narrow kraken]

I have farmed so much stuff do only knee pads have the bewildered perk and if not if I have multiple equipment items with bewildered dose it stack damage or deal more?

[slim elk]

Check the library

[narrow kraken]

Ohhh ok ty

But do you know if multiple equipment with it stack or no?

[slim elk]

isn't Bewildered from Turmoil or sum?
I cannot remember

[bold tiger]

yeah only from the turmoil kneepads

[narrow kraken]

crap ok

[bold tiger]

talents usually only come on the chest and backpack
named items and exotics are the exceptions when it comes to gear

[narrow kraken]

Ok so farm the names kneepad?

Named*

[bold tiger]

yeah, but no clue if they added it in the loot pool yet honestly. can try loot goblin

[narrow kraken]

Yeah I tried him he dose not drop it he still drops Christmas stuff for me but thanks

[bold tiger]

well, from my perspective it'd be a holiday drop which would come from him. otherwise go for the Ceska target loot Icon looks like a hammer

[narrow kraken]

Alright il try it thank yall

[rugged stratus]

makes you look a lot cooler when its in hand

[trim meadow]

It's like, Pewww pewww pewwww pewwwwwwwwwwww

[hard blaze]

How did you get it? I saw it in Expertise tabs after a long break, and never heard of it, so I assume it was some event gun?

[bold tiger]

it was a summer event drop. can find your favorite place to make the hoarder (loot goblin) spawn and kill him log off, log on an find him hopefully in same area and do this on repeat until you get it or get all his loot he drops currently

currently probably Cooler, Chill out Mask, Snow machine knees, Sleigher Tommy gun hmmm, probably missing a piece here

[hard blaze]

I see will give it a shot, thanks

[bold tiger]

my favorite spot is DZ South enterance (huge door icon) you'll spawn in looking at the dz enterance so you turn left and walk forward there. if your minimap doesn't turn red then he didn't spawn. if he does spawn 2 places. parking lot close to you or you go north and he'll run towards you between 2 busses and bunch of other cars near the busses

[oak gazelle]

another ez farm

[trim meadow]

I got it from hunter bunny (goblin) outside jefferson trade center

Farmed 20-21 times and had 6 of them

with tommy gun, and christmas backpack

Jefferson trade center 2 manholes

this 3 location. But most of them from manholes

[lunar trench]

question, what should i do with my 2nd st elmos? tinkerize it? or send it to my other character

[daring wren]

I would either keep or deconstruct. Don’t donate exotics to proficiency because the component is too valuable

[lunar trench]

thyx

[white zealot]

Could someone tell me what are the dz target loot today? Thanks

[flint hare]

heartbreaker, lmgs, hunters furry

[lunar trench]

damn if only i wasnt soo weak even in empty dz...

[lunar trench]

rofl a chameleon from a priority mission then a st elmo' right after

[inner tendon]

@lunar trench Just copy a build from the spreadsheet that's 📌 pinned over in #td2-build-advice, all of those are Heroic viable, so they'll do fine in the PvE part of the DZ.
There's also a PvP section towards the top.
both are within the "builds" tab.

[lunar trench]

thx

watch is only 198 atm

[inner tendon]

As soon as you have the Watch, you're at the endgame.
You can absolutely make those builds without any points at all, you'll just need to be more creative with the Attributes.

[lunar trench]

thx, i appreciate it

[daring wren]

Just get in there. You’ll be in the shd 0-500 bracket and it’ll be mostly empty

Good opportunity to farm DZ gear

[inner tendon]

The real trick is learning the ins-and-outs of div2, you won't be able to just jump straight to the hardest stuff, but you're building up to it.
1st step? Play on Challenging as your minimum, it'll help with farming a lot, and get you ready for the DZ's easier areas.

[teal yarrow]

no1 joining how do i solo

nvm i just walked in

[trim meadow]

What's this?

[nimble spruce]

3d printer iirc. You can interact with it in haven to get a backpack trophy

[gray mason]

I didn't know that. I need to go check that out 😁

[hot ferry]

whats the method for getting the eggs, just kill any enemies?

[trim meadow]

I farmed it

https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Ll0fLdJp3r8

I watched this short and did the same thing, completed now. was stand in same place with pistol Kard-45 and finally it's done

[gray mason]

Nice 😊

[hot ferry]

thanks for the advice

[trim meadow]

Now I got it, I was searching what kettle brother said

[nimble spruce]

@hot ferry I think this ^ is probably the fastest method if you can keep the minitank from reaching full health - might need bullet king to avoid reload breaks

[gray mason]

I have played the game for thousands of hours, and I didn't even know about this one 😂

[hot ferry]

btw I should ask this before I farm dz for another 7 hours, the perfect unhinged lmg still exists right?

[nimble spruce]

Yes afaik

[hot ferry]

alright, thank you

[gray mason]

It is the one called Black Friday

[hot ferry]

yeah

I spent 7 hours in dz west a couple days back when it was there

didn't even get it ONCE

now its in east and invaded, I'm gonna try for a second round

[gray mason]

Good luck 🤞😌

[hot ferry]

yo if anyone wants this you can join up and kill me, I don't mind

where would be the approriate place to post such a thing? (wanna know for the future, because I bet this aint it)

[trim meadow]

IRL? Or game? 😂

[tiny stump]

you can give it to someone unless they were already grouped with you when you got it

[hot ferry]

I said kill me

as in join lobby and steal my stuff

[trim meadow]

Mission?

[hot ferry]

no dz

[tiny stump]

my bad. read it too fast

[trim meadow]

No I mean are you in mission where you have to get killed?

[hot ferry]

no, I just have devils due

if someone wants it, they can join up and take it off me

[bold tiger]

honestly i feel it's a bait. "join my lobby i drop for you" as soon as you pick it up they kill you and take it back and keep up the facade of "i got devil's due to give away" XD

[hot ferry]

I already have one

[bold tiger]

it's like "hey i got a eagle bearer who wants?" you let them join you you drop the eagle bearer for them to pick up. while they're trying to pick it up you or your friend goes rogue and you just kill them as they're pretty defenseless XD and repeat it

[hot ferry]

I don't really do pvp

[bold tiger]

but it is cool of you to offer it though

[hot ferry]

not sure what part of this screams pvp build to you

[trim meadow]

Finally got this with priority objective

[bold tiger]

FYI: for those of you that lives in countdown

[hot ferry]

can confirm, works great

[sudden matrix]

#ask-td2-community message much faster way Air and space is invaded this is the starting area. I'd use a BK and gunner.

[trim meadow]

Yeah I know right, little much time need but one brother above did much faster too

[trim meadow]

Yeah much faster have to find the machine too

[sudden matrix]

Air and space invaded starting area. Not sure if it's a guaranteed spawn or if it's a chance but it's easy to start-pulse and see if you got it and just to kill everyone but the mini tank and operator.

[ember kite]

Did anyone else not get the day 3 for the Easter project? Day 2s is still marked as completed but every other daily reset.

[bold tiger]

think mine showed double digit hours

like 12 hours, could be in 11 hours now

[ember kite]

weird, the others all got new ones but not it

[bold tiger]

have you checked the easter project to see how long you have left for new project?

[ember kite]

It just says "completed"

[bold tiger]

you should also see in there a cooldown timer

[ember kite]

the other dailys have 17 hours left so they reset 6 hours ago

[sudden matrix]

Day three isn't here yet.

If you have the helm+boots you are done for now.

#news-and-announcements message

[bold tiger]

you see under New Project 9 hours?

[trim meadow]

Do you guys have any exotic weapon which is good for collect bad for use? If yes, What is it?

[sudden matrix]

I feel like you are asking what is a good exotic farm for components, am I right?

[gray mason]

Anyone else getting a texture bug on the L85 LSW LMG?

[trim meadow]

No I meant is, the weapon is bad but still exotic

[sudden matrix]

So your asking what's a bad exotic weapon?

[trim meadow]

yes

[tiny stump]

Sacrum imperium

[gray mason]

Chameleon 😅

[sudden matrix]

Ruthless

Just don't know why you'd want this info, like what purpose does it serve?

[gray mason]

I actually managed to get it working quite well (on challenging) while I was leveling its expertise 🙂

[trim meadow]

Nah man just asking sorry if I bother you with my question

[gray mason]

I must admit I am curious as well. It's rare that people ask what the worst exotic is, and not what the best is 😂

[trim meadow]

I've played most of the time with rifle it's called UIC15 MOD2

So I was excited with exotic rifle

And the worst is I don't like meciless at all (Personal opinion sorry if I made a mistake)

[tough marsh]

Don't have to apologize for opinions

[trim meadow]

I did share my opinion with AC shadow that I don't want to play. Some people put in hell, wanted me to die

[sudden matrix]

yikes

[trim meadow]

After that I put a little apologize

[gray mason]

Some people are just angry no matter what you do. Don't need to apologize for having an opinion 🙂

[trim meadow]

So this yellow line mean highest stats right?

[sudden matrix]

Don't worry about it, I just find it useless information and don't see how it could help. Also figured a translator might be screwing you over.

[gray mason]

Yup 🙂

[trim meadow]

Interesting thing is, marksman rifle 111% headshot damage

Marksman rifle 137 headshot damage

Weird isn't it?

[gray mason]

This is because it is a "named" weapon. They have either a perfect stat, or a perfect talent 🙂

[sudden matrix]

White death named item stat.

[cedar edge]

Good afternoon guys. I have been playing with St Elmo and Iron Lung, which has been quite interesting. I needed to swap from St Elmo to Iron and I had picked up BlueScreen without knowing. WHAT A GUN!!!!

[covert temple]

Hi Guys, returning player here. Trying to follow some community guide on building a Standard red DPS build. I don't have exotic weapons yet but found what seems to be a more or less good AR to start dealing some damage. I'd like your advice on what I should go for :
Target out of Cover or Change Ranger for another better talent ?

[sudden matrix]

DTTOOC will net you more damage than any talent change and ranger isn't the worst thing to have.

[covert temple]

Thanks a lot !

[gray mason]

Yeah, Bluescreen is a great LMG 🤩 and it even looks cool as well 😎

[low lynx]

Try that bad boy with ongoing directive, near limitless hollow points as it pretty much keeps it up indefinitely, just make sure you run the chest

[sudden matrix]

Idk sadist buff is pretty hard to pass up.

If going OD builds.

[gray mason]

True. Especially with the named LMG Carnage 😎

[nimble spruce]

Sadist AR for burst, bluescreen for sustain

[gray mason]

But most of the time I end up using Pestilence. DOT heaven, haha 😈

[lunar trench]

grr i want a pest>< rofl

[bold tiger]

you know i think i tried that once and wasn't too impressed so i swapped it out for something else, but now i'm curious 🤔

[gray mason]

I always use Striker for speed. But OD with Pestilence when I want to have fun 😁

[bold tiger]

thanks for reminding me. i need to redo my striker on my main account

[nimble spruce]

The bleed dot isn't great, and I think the amplified damage from OD won't boost pesti dot, only the bullet impact damage, so it's not the most synergistic combo

But fun is fun, so hey

[bold tiger]

2nd account i got a striker build with coyote's mask, turmoil knees and maining the chameleon. been pretty fun

[lunar trench]

i got a 4th st elmos in countdown gave it up to grp

[bold tiger]

how nice of you, imagine you gave it to someone and they crunched it for the component instead XD

[gray mason]

Absolutely true. Pest only benefits from the weapon damage, and nothing else. But still highly effective when you get multiple Pest dots going on several targets 🙂

[bold tiger]

i don't think Icetorrent cares about the synergy of it the build but having bleeding, vile and pesti dotting things to death is just a fun way of making it all happen

[lunar trench]

nah i asked if they needed it and they didnt have it yet

[bold tiger]

i would've told you i didn't have just so i can crunch it for component

[lunar trench]

if so its ok=P

i got me a heartbreak set for tech and hunter set for everything else

with memento and scorp

did 2 challenging countdowns was nice and clean

[trim meadow]

Before when I used to move from one skill mod item to another I used to get a glimpse what is increasing and what is getting low or what I'll lose to equip new skill mod item. But today I noticed It's not showing. is this happening to me only or everyone?

[bold tiger]

well, the first cluster one is just indicating a +1 to clusters mines or - 1 when you take out

the second one is just the health of your seeker mine

[sudden matrix]

Make a bug report yo.

[bold tiger]

plus none of the mods you pictured shows any kind of "increase damage with this skill"

[sudden matrix]

Yeah but the health of the skill would change and usually be displayed what the resulted change would be when going thru mods.

[bold tiger]

yeah just noticed that

[sudden matrix]

I mean it's probably a bug but no one here can help you with that. You'd have to go to the ubi support server and open a bug report there.

[bold tiger]

nods a visual feature (bug)

[cedar edge]

I'm optimizing White Death, would you go for Damage to Armour, or Critical Hit Chance?

[slim elk]

DTOC

[cedar edge]

Does that mean Critical Hit Chance, so no good at these acronyms.

[slim elk]

DMG to Target Out of Cover
check the last pin

I wrote them down in there and it was for you and another guy in here lol

[cedar edge]

Sadly I do not have that option. Okay, will not upgrade for now.

Sorry Doomz, I'm a klutz.

[slim elk]

dw, I also forget a lot

[cedar edge]

Hold my Beer!

[slim elk]

crit chance in mmr's is like putting mag size in an LMG

[cedar edge]

I really will have to start farming for gear sets. I have such crappy gear it is laughable.

Hey at least I have Bunny Wabbit boots on.

[cedar edge]

I believe I am about to ask the most ID-10-TIC question of all time. How do I find 'Journey Missions'? I've gone over all the icons on the map, nothing there. Confused.

[karmic hawk]

It's in the other menu with Priority Objectives and the Events timeline

[cedar edge]

Balls! I am stuck on a few of them. Thank you Agent Lia.

[nimble spruce]

@merry plume moving the conversation here as it's not really fashion related.
A few people have reported their egg counts resetting, we haven't established a cause yet but the only fix seems to be starting again. When you complete day 1's project by collecting the first hundred eggs, it should immediately unlock the day 2 project (which is another 100 eggs)

[merry plume]

Ok i understand now ty
The thing is i dont have a lot time to play those days, yesterday i grab 65 eggs in 2h30 lol

[nimble spruce]

#ask-td2-community message
Is probably the fastest way to farm them if you can maintain it successfully

Try to keep the minitank on low health so the controller doesn't stop repairing, and the tracks will pop back every couple of seconds

[cedar edge]

Secret to farm eggs to follow ||Use Tidal Basin and harvest the eggs from the big dude with the machine gun. Just shoot the belt that is on the gun that is on his right side||

Oh doing that took less than 20 minutes. As I was lucky to keep two alive after killing all the normal dudes.

[bold tiger]

i've seen people use the BT mini tank. destoy both treads

[wispy merlin]

yeah, 2 weakpoints that get repaired super quickly

[heady veldt]

can someone tell me what is the weapon that says "Item Missing" .. I just hit 30

[slim elk]

Specialization

[heady veldt]

How would I choose it?

[slim elk]

talk to the quartermaster in the white house

[heady veldt]

roger will do

okay guys.. so here's where I'm at.. I am packed with superior items and other things after reaching 30. I'm almost full in inventory. I have only 1250 e-credits, not sure how many mats.

I'm about to do a clean up, I already have 2 solid guns at level 30 and solid gear to keep going. Should I stack up more on e-credits by selling items or dismantled them for mats.. I'm kind of not sure

[wispy merlin]

just dismantle them

your end goal is lv40 btw so don't feel like you're attached to anything you have right now, you'll deconstruct them all

[heady veldt]

so mats more valuable at this point yah?

[wispy merlin]

yeah

[heady veldt]

bounties can give me some quick e-credits if I need it right?

[wispy merlin]

yep

[heady veldt]

so what is this?

Just unlocked.. it says modifiers but I'm unsure what that means.. the descriptions are kind meh .. should I activate this?

[bold tiger]

exactly that. modifies the game play. this current one is Rogue Momentum. each tier increases something while at tier 5 you get over charged skills

[heady veldt]

but is this a benefit to me or it's like a challenge increase for some return in xp or similar? for example this one.. there is no label on hover so I don't know what it is. I'm assuming it's something with headshots.

ah when I activate it gives a description.. duh

[bold tiger]

was about to say you check this in here?

[heady veldt]

okay I'm getting it now

[bold tiger]

if you know where to find this in your platform you'll unlock the active and passive modifiers

[heady veldt]

so this is purely buffs Rogue momentum for players.. do you turn on hostile modifiers as well? What is the benefit for modifying it and turning on hostile modifiers?

oh I see.. it's the seasonal stuff

activate the modifiers in order to achieve challenges from the seasonal

okay.. I'm rushing .. these things will unlock one by one as I complete the Journey steps.. I just don't see the full picture now until I progress further.. got it

I found the modifiers listings

[bold tiger]

the journey isn't step by step aside the 1-7 part
you only need to do 6 of the 8 to go from up

[heady veldt]

oooh.. specializations look juicy

it's a skill tree basically awesome

[low saddle]

Anyone got suggestions on how to get materials quickly like carbon fiber? Or just keep doing countdown and disassemble stuff?

Finally learning the optimization game and it's used a lot of my stuff.

[patent vigil]

you can target certain factions for certain material types but by and large just get stuff and decontstruct.

you will keep maybe 1% of anything you loot bc RNG hates Division agents.

[fossil hemlock]

can i farm turmoil knee pads wasnt able to get on get a pair?

[slim elk]

not afaik

[heady veldt]

a couple of questions.

1. What is the limit rarity on gear to share with friends.
2. What stuff in the game is account wide, i.e. when I make a new agent?

[slim elk]

1. Sharing works as:
   When in a group/party, you can share items with the group members within the next few hours. Doesn't qualify for subgroups.

2. To share gear/loadouts with your other agents, you send them to the stash and pick them up in the other agent's stash. Anything that's not equipped can be sent to stash*.

[radiant coral]

Hey I'm trying to find a dev statement about the raid exotics in the dark zone not being affected by targeted loot but having an issue finding one because google is trash lately and all i can find is dudes on reddit saying it's unaffected but no source.

[heady veldt]

1. is there a limitation on what type of item (rarity) you can share with a friend in a party?
2. So gear is shared via stash account wide? how about mats and resources? are they account wide or per character?

[radiant coral]

Anything that drops has a 1 hour time limit to drop to people that were in your sessio nwhen it hit the ground. Some caches have sharable contents but i do not know exactly which ones and don't wanna give you bad info. I know the weekly shd req ones are sharable.

[slim elk]

1. Nope, even exotics can be shared as long as they're not equipped or modified.
2. Currency (credits) are the only ones that are not shared. Everything else can be shared with all 4 characters.

[slim elk]

it is unaffected

[radiant coral]

Thanks, i agree with you. I'm basically being hit with [citation needed] and would like to be able to prove it.

[slim elk]

this generation I swear /j

I found this in the TU17 patch notes, nothing else mentioned, also found the reddit post you mentioned

[radiant coral]

There's a trello page that has the exotic drop rates on it too that I'm trying to find. 🤔

[slim elk]

this?

[radiant coral]

Yeah i wanna find the page it's from in case there's an article it's attached to

[heady veldt]

is this bugged? I can't plant the 3rd crate because it's on fire?

[radiant coral]

But I'm an idiot and JUST remembered i can reverse google image search

That's from the tu16 patch notes and has nothing to do w/ eb/rav/bh unfortunately

[slim elk]

they got mentioned in tu17 only, tu17.1 got deleted and don't know where to find it tho

[radiant coral]

I found a kvd video where he reads through the 17.1 patch notes so i guess i get to listen to him for 20 minutes

[slim elk]

not the kvd vids

[slim elk]

maybe, try to unalive yourself with a nade

[radiant coral]

Whatever i give up I'm just gonna let him continue only searching for it on targeted loot days

[heady veldt]

is this Potomac Relief Camp side mission bugged or what? It appears it is. I need to set 3 crates on fire.. I do.. and it still points to 3rd crate that's already burning..

I've restarted the mission and ran it twice.. same issue

nm.. it was pointing to a wrong crate.. figured it out

[ebon stag]

Can anyone confirm if Acosta’s knee pads can drop in the open world or Countdown? I’ve been farming Countdown a lot with target loot ( kneepads ) but haven’t had any luck so far.

[iron zinc]

Im getting superior gear, not high end from loot goblin with weak rolls and im on heroic. Is that normal ?

[pseudo tundra]

We do have rules about adverising, you can try asking for PVP advices or build advices in other channels

[tough marsh]

Yes.

[iron zinc]

@tough marsh concise. Thank u

[desert thunder]

Does any one know if the new kneepads are in the loot pool?

[gray terrace]

not that im aware of

[tiny stump]

They're not. Don't waste ur time trying to farm them. It was a one time gift item and it doesn't even let you recalibrate them or anything

[desert thunder]

it would have been nice to have one for each character

[rugged stratus]

project gift, or stash gift in special delivery?

i was out of the loop for a bit and didnt even login during april fools

[tiny stump]

i dont even remember. they might have just been in your inventory that day but im not sure

[rugged stratus]

gotcha , ill take a look

[robust vigil]

Is there any single item (exotic or otherwise) that can be slotted into a DPS build to give that build great survivability for solo?

[tiny stump]

what i do sometimes for survivability is just put the talent preservation on the gun and use the gunner specialization. gets you 20% armor on kill so you can afford to take damage while you're shooting as long as you get your kills bc your armor will stay up.. if you dont play stupid anyway

[robust vigil]

Not a bad idea, thank you

[fossil hemlock]

??

[robust vigil]

"afaik" = "as far as I know"

[warm root]

Why is the scout week so easy to complete you’d think the objective would take longer or something since it’s a whole week each week

[rugged stratus]

memento bag is calling your name

[inner tendon]

@warm root They used to be multiple weeks between each one.
Div2 has always been a "play it in the background" kinda game, be thankful. There's way too many live-service games that demand all your time.

[green agate]

is there a way to reroll The Harvest? or do i gotta keep farming them from the loot goblin till they drop with determined or dttooc?

[tiny stump]

you figured it out. keep looking

[trim meadow]

Who did this percentage? I mean Ubisoft or someone else?

[heady veldt]

I'm confused why is The Castle settlement greyed out for me? Does it unlock later? When I go there it says I found it but everyone's dead.

[slim elk]

ubi probably, it may have been removed with tu17.1 patch notes too.

[tough marsh]

Yeah it's the official one

[trim meadow]

But they removed so that mean there is higher percentage they put in or lower? No other statemenet from them about it right?

[slim elk]

TU17.1 patch notes were removed since the official discussion website got taken down.

That patch note was in there.

[trim meadow]

I had no luck with exotic weapon in open world, Summit not in any mission. All I got from Priority Objective. Still same.

No it's not true, I did recieved some exotic from open world and some mission but it's April Fool items

[heady veldt]

so can someone help me understand what I picked.. cause I can't find it anymore.
Namely, I had a set I think of high-end gear and when i was shooting and killing enemies it was stacking up armor through the moon. I had so much of it, the little bars for armor on UI had like 50 thin armor bars, that enemy was basically unable to take me down.. but as I was leveling up I somehow swapped out of it and now it's not doing that anymore and I have normal amount of armor. I'm not sure what made it work like that.

Is that a mod on the piece of gear? or maybe an exotic? Is it Intimidate Talent?

[tough marsh]

Sounds like Bloodsucker

[heady veldt]

so the bars for armor are white by default.. when i was killing enemies the bars would fill up blue

[tough marsh]

Yeah Bloodsucker does thag

Blue armor is bonus armor

[heady veldt]

is that a mod?

[tough marsh]

Backpack talent

[heady veldt]

thanks

that was it.. awesome ..

[tough marsh]

Np

[heady veldt]

so it's not just bloodsucker that does this right? if I pick that add armor amount while you kill enemies attribute it will also fill it up with more blue bars right?

[tough marsh]

Some talents give bonus armor as well but none of them work like Bloodsuckers - adding bonus armor as you kill enemies

[heady veldt]

got it

[tough marsh]

Actually, the Memento Exotic Backpack more or less work in the same way

[heady veldt]

so if I extract the Bloodsucker .. what's the process of getting onto another piece of gear? How does this transfer work? It's a bit confusing.

basically i'm wondering if I can extract it and put it on a different piece of gear that's higher level.. sorry I'm trying to learn all this stuff.. so many things

[tough marsh]

Yes

Once the talent or attribute is in the recalibration library, you can put it on any piece of gear

But remember that you can only recalibrate either the talent or attribute slot only once.

[heady veldt]

so just so i don't mess it up now.. for this Wyvern piece that has bloodsucker on it now.. I got to extract the talent first right? It will destroy the piece.

[tough marsh]

Yes

[heady veldt]

ok.. extracted.. so here's where i'm a bit confused..where do I go now?

Tinkering?

[tough marsh]

It's stored in the library now

[heady veldt]

right.. so let's say i have now a superior back pack that i want to imprint it on

I go to Tinker?

[tough marsh]

Yes, then recalibration

[heady veldt]

ok.. so I am starting to get it now.. so I click on the talent.. and then on the right it shows me the library of my extracted talents right?

[tough marsh]

Yes

[heady veldt]

then I select transfer and it will imprint the new talent I selected right?

[tough marsh]

Yes

[heady veldt]

ok.. it makes sense now.. thank you

[tough marsh]

But as you can see it's quite expensive to recalibrate at your level. So don't worry too much about it at your level until you get to lv 40.

[heady veldt]

yeah I get it.. I just don't want to get wrecked constantly.. so i just wanted to do this one

[tough marsh]

No probs

[heady veldt]

so let me just ask this.. as I'm playing.. I am equipping better pieces level wise to increase my health/armor really.. and I can always craft weapons I need so I'm always fine on my level to fight and finish stuff..

My question is.. since I will be definitely benefiting from these talents should I be extracting everything now?

I'm guessing later for making builds I will need these talents to be able to make a build I want right?

[tough marsh]

It's a good time to start as long as it doesn't derail your progress

[tough marsh]

Basically yes

[heady veldt]

okay.. so when I see good ones I might want to use, I extract, for rest just dismantle for mats right?

bounties for money as someone else suggested

[tough marsh]

Ultimately you'll have to complete your library (fill all attributes and talents) but that's up to you. But yes you can extract whatever you want

[heady veldt]

great.. and just one last thing so I can confirm it.. when I'm extracting.. does the list of items it shows also includes equipped items or it doesn't show those?

just so I don't extract equipped item by accident

[tough marsh]

It doesn't show your equipped ones or those marked as favourite.

[heady veldt]

cool... awesome.. thank you for your patience and help

[tough marsh]

Np

[serene kestrel]

I need to farm emperors guard kneepads what’s the fastest and easiest way to get them I have a couple pairs but I need specific roles

[fossil hemlock]

is there a way to get the turmoil kneepads if i missed them by any chance? would it be possible if a group member dropped them or am i cooked?

[inner tendon]

@fossil hemlock Just an FYI:
You can only share loot with teammates if it was obtained whilst playing in the same group together, and only for a set period of time, that's listed on the item itself.

I'm unsure if they still drop elsewhere, but I would guess they're part of the Loot Goblin pool.

[mellow trout]

I'm pretty sure turmoil is in a lex situation rn

But yeah id wager if it comes back it'll be via the loot goblin

[whole sundial]

I just died on room 89 in summit because a pulse jammer had no cover near it... am I missing something or was it bad room generation. Also, is there a bug with fragile armor? I tried using an armor kit to repair my armor before standing next to the jammer to hack it but all it did was waste it without actually removing a broken segment.

[tough marsh]

Time to add Turmoil to my "take a shot" list

[tough marsh]

Yes fragile armor is sometimes broken

[inner tendon]

There is actually a fix re: Fragile Armour.

[tough marsh]

Is it.... Sturdy Armor?

[inner tendon]

IIRC, the fix is to just not heal when you're taking "tick damage".

It's hard to resist the urge to panic spam your heal when you are on fire, I know.

[tough marsh]

Interesting

[inner tendon]

It's either that or don't fast travel with it active, but I'm 70% sure it's the heal thing.

[tough marsh]

The don't fast travel part is disturbing

No fast travelling for me is like stairs to claptrap

[trim meadow]

How important it is to unlock those other 3 specialize weapon?

[inner tendon]

@trim meadow The guns themselves? You can pretty much forget they exist.
The real benefit to the Spec Trees are the buffs that you get from them. Very much worth it to focus on geting all 6 done ASAP.

you can get points for them by just having them active+levelling up, but also bonus points each week via Projects/certain bounties/invaded missions.

[heady veldt]

so nobody uses gunner huge mini-gun right? the point of gunner is the benefits of the tree only?

can you max out all nodes on the tree? do you get enough points?

[narrow kraken]

Can max out everything except the weapon buffs, only 3 of those and some on the bottom right of the tree

[inner tendon]

In the case of Gunner, the main benefit is "armour on kill", and the Pulse Skill variant.

Every Spec Tree has "that one thing", that may actually be a few.

[narrow kraken]

Minigun also isn’t useless, it’s really underrated. It’s just unreliable since it takes so long to ready/stow

[inner tendon]

It's not so much "underrated" as it is "underpowered".

[nimble spruce]

Plus it forces you out of cover and slows your movement down so rather risky on a red build

[narrow kraken]

I guess compared to the other spec weapons yeah

[inner tendon]

All the Spec Weapons are underpowered, espectially since they have reduced damage on Named targets.
It's kind of a "by design" thing.
and yeah, absolutely what Kettle said.

[tough marsh]

It's very niche.

[inner tendon]

I hate to say it, but the most useful one of the 6, has to be the Survivalist Crossbow.

and that's pure utility.

[narrow kraken]

Tac 50 still reigns supreme

[tough marsh]

When you're at the top of your game and camping every spawn then it's worth using but otherwise no

[inner tendon]

What does it reign surpreme over?

[tough marsh]

Pizza

[narrow kraken]

I mean it has the highest base dmg in the game, its the best thing to build headhunter stacks on

[tough marsh]

Compared to the flammenwaffen? Yeah I agree

[narrow kraken]

The flamethrower takes 9 damn centuries to inflict burn

[inner tendon]

nemesis has a higher base.

[tough marsh]

No?

[narrow kraken]

It in fact does not..

[inner tendon]

I'm looking at both of them now, lemme double-check

[tough marsh]

Nemesis uncharged deals very little damage

[inner tendon]

The uncharged doesn't matter.

but yeah, it turns out that the base for both is slightly uneven, the other build mustve had an MMR bonus on it, that I guess doesnt work for the tac50

1.15 vs 1.5 as base damages on a full yellow setup, no spec tree bonus.

The thing is: one has a few more bullets than the other one.

[nimble spruce]

Generally only need one or two bullets to get that hh bonus going tbf

[narrow kraken]

The UI for spec weapons shows an incorrect base dmg number btw

Has been since release

[inner tendon]

The issue is not getting the bonus started, it's killing more than what, 8 enemies.

The base doesn't really matter when you need to go and get kills with a different weapon every few kills.

Spec Weapons are fun to use for sure, sometimes, but they are unfortunately not a build focus right now.

[narrow kraken]

Used a lot in speedruns 🙂

[tough marsh]

And only 0.1% of the community speedruns

[narrow kraken]

Unfortunately

[trim meadow]

Yeah I know they have skill tree, But the concern is. Does it takes too much time. And do I've to do the upgrade specific one there have a side where only 45 upgrade available in left side and you can't do more than that. So how long might it take to unlock each special weapon so I can get the skill tree. Like straight 2-5 hours or any example hour? So I can make sure to get enough time after office. And do I''ve to readt and make sure to specific I need to use in my build when I unlock the skill tier with the point?

[narrow kraken]

😵

[inner tendon]

@trim meadow I've given you the various ways to get the Spec Tree points, how long it takes is up to you.

[heady veldt]

is glass cannon worth it?

[nimble spruce]

Yes if you're willing to learn the necessary positioning/awareness skills

[heady veldt]

I guess what I meant is it one of those things that's used in meta builds or not?

[nimble spruce]

Yes it is

[heady veldt]

k

[tough marsh]

Meta players love Penguins Golf Club

[heady veldt]

I found one thing that mildly annoys me with the game.. the fact that some skills like Seeker Mine I'm using bugs out sooo much. It won't trigger sometimes if I drop it before I target a group. I actually like the skill but bugs like that in the middle of the fight gets old fast.

am I using it wrong maybe? I don't know. Sometimes it shows red circles for target area, then just won't launch. Others times, works just fine. Is this a thing?

[tough marsh]

Nope, it's that inaccurate

Sometimes it stays with you if the enemies are out of the mines' range, so move closer to the enemies and tap the button again

[heady veldt]

pretty annoying.. I'm gonna move away from it anyways..seems like from what someone told me here people really don't use those guided skills anyways in end-game activities due to getting hacked or something

[nimble spruce]

Skills only get hacked if hunters are around - mostly just countdown and summit floor 100

[heady veldt]

so what is Summit? I have it unlocked now but haven't tried it.. I saw people mention floors earlier as you noted.

like a building with 100 floors? 🙂

[quick folio]

Yes

[nimble spruce]

It's intended as a loot cave, but in practice it's just not as good as countdown or open world for loot farming. Rather dull environment too.

[heady veldt]

got it.. I guess i'll try it at least once.. is it soloable?

[midnight geyser]

Yeah it's soloable, I've done it a few times. Iirc you get more drops in groups since there's a larger enemy pop that way

[nimble spruce]

Yes, you've got a lot of difficulty and directive options so can make it as hard or easy as you like. If you're level 40 I recommend looking at the challenges (from the map menu when you're in there) and completing at least 5 to get the capacitor, a very useful exotic AR for skill builds.

[heady veldt]

got it.. I just hit 39.. are gear drops better if you add difficulty modifiers?

[midnight geyser]

modifiers only increase your xp gains in summit iirc, but the base difficulty modifier does increase drop quality.
Heroic I believe is the highest difficulty you can run summit at

been a while since I've run it so that may have changed though

[nimble spruce]

Directives add more xp and more target loot drops.
Summit difficulty ranges from normal through to legendary.

[heady veldt]

got it

[tulip vapor]

hey does anyone know the best way to get the lexington AR?

[pseudo tundra]

You cant at the moment

[tulip vapor]

ah thats a shame

[spare girder]

Does anyone think all agents in story or lore-basis have been given the name Sheriff as a call sign?

[warm pawn]

do directives boost the amount of target loot or the odds?

[nimble spruce]

Target loot has a chance of dropping each time you get a regular loot drop. Directives increase that chance. So effectively you'll get more pieces of target loot on average.

[hard sorrel]

Never done it before so it looks kinda scary but the Incursions are hard or hard

[hard blaze]

Incursion is easy

[nimble spruce]

Easy is relative

If you're ok with legendary then incursion is easy, if you're used to heroic it's a bit tough, if you're used to challenging or lower it's extremely tough

[mellow trout]

Only easy assuming you have a competent team with at least decent builds and knowledge of strats

[hard sorrel]

Oh, another question about those "exclusive" exotics. I just did DH so it means that I have to wait another week or re-run it 5 times to get another chance at the EB correct? Or the drop can only happen on the first try. Does it also affect IH and the Incursion or I can run them and get a chance at the Ravenous and Ouro.

[pseudo tundra]

Each can be run on their own once per week for the boxes with higher chance, but any boss can drop so you can farm the bosses

Incursion i would say its similar to legendary

[hard sorrel]

So even the Boomer can drop it? Or Weasel?

[pseudo tundra]

Yeah

Just low chance

[hard sorrel]

Oh

[pseudo tundra]

My first ouroboros was from the boss not the chest

Anyhow is mostly DPS and mechanic check

[hard sorrel]

Can the Razorback and the Iron Horse itself / that woman Romaroza (forgot the name) drop it or no?

[pseudo tundra]

Competent people can clear it with no problem

[pseudo tundra]

Yes, DH bosses can drop eagle, IH bosses the ravenous

[patent vigil]

I know some of you thought Chill Out didn't drop out of season but yes, it will if rarely. Just now from the troll.

[hard sorrel]

So technically 5 chances in total

[pseudo tundra]

4 small ones and one bigger chance

[nimble spruce]

While the Easter event is active, the loot goblin drops all the seasonal stuff

[hard sorrel]

I'm assuming Incursion is only 3 then? Or the love birds count as separate?

[pseudo tundra]

Love birds are 2

[patent vigil]

ah, good to know. explains Carol.

[pseudo tundra]

There is a big discussion about the tankee boss counting or not

[hard sorrel]

All have 5 expected Incursion then? I like those odds. I'll try IH and Incursion next, wish me luck

[plucky hawk]

@hard sorrel This isnt true. The bosses only have a fraction of a % chance to drop, like lotto numbers rare, and only your first run of the week per character. The box can be opened once per run as long as you have enough keys and has a 10% chance every time

[nimble spruce]

The people that have run incursion thousands of times seem pretty convinced he doesn't drop it, which is good enough for me

[pseudo tundra]

Since hes a named enemy with the darker yellow life bar, but doesnt have the big giant named bar from raid encounter boss

[pseudo tundra]

I did say 4 small chances and one bigger with box tho

[plucky hawk]

Moss (tanker boss) absolutely does not drop the ouro

[plucky hawk]

you cant farm the bosses multiple times a week though

[hard sorrel]

When you say FIRST run is it for all 3 modes or the FIRST for each one? That's what's confusing me. In 1 week can I get all 3 or I gotta choose?

[pseudo tundra]

Each one is independent from eachother

[plucky hawk]

yes. when you open the raid menu to setup a group it will show you "X/4 bosses have raid loot", thats what it means. Each character has its own chance per week

[hard sorrel]

Ok then still have a chance at Ouro and Ravenous

[trim meadow]

So far I like this exotic light machine gun

[tiny stump]

i got lucky. i only played the incursion threee times and got the ouro twice

[plucky hawk]

ouro has a 1% chance to drop from wright or lovebirds every run

[hard sorrel]

Lend me thy luck plz, imma try them later

[tiny stump]

i will light some incense about it

[plucky hawk]

rav has the same drop mechanics as the EB

[hard sorrel]

Thank you

[trim meadow]

This gun looks cool

[tiny stump]

its not bad. i wish the handling was a little better though

58 round mag. pretty nice

[trim meadow]

recoil/stability?

[tiny stump]

stability

its not horrible but its enough that i want to use an attachment slot for stablility when i could have chc on it

[sterile dagger]

Hi guys! Is there any build/strategy that can solo 5 legendary hunters with them being 4-man hp at summit floor 100? I can easily solo 2-3 legendary hunters using riot grenade, but not 4 or 5, given that I want to carry new players with ~100 SHD level, using my all +28 weapons, skills and equipments.

[patent vigil]

full 100% disrupt resist tank setup w/ ballsitic shield technician and spray a hand gun?

[sage badger]

The Oh Carol and Snow Machine give fun effects with the talent, are there any others that do the same?

[sage badger]

I use an all red headshot build, 2 tap a hunter with the specialty sniper and then one tap the rest with head hunter

[trim meadow]

In which season pass I'll get all the special weapon unlock?

[sage badger]

Special weapon unlock? Like a skin?

[trim meadow]

this 3

[sage badger]

The weapons are not tied to a pass

I believe you just have to unlock and complete all those challenges, once your at 165 in one of the trees I believe you then get to use the weapon

[charred shore]

The year 1 pass unlocks all 3 additional specialisation weapons instantly.

The field research grants exclusive skins for pass holders when completing the challenges tied to them.

[trim meadow]

So lazy to complete this one, poor to buy. Just asking 😂

[sage badger]

Well I stand corrected, it's been a while since I've done it lmao

[trim meadow]

What's the best place to kill 2 enemies in one granade. Like if I have foam luncher still I've to find 2 enemies in one place

[charred shore]

The 165 number is for the spec tree. You earn those spec points from projects, missions and shd levelling. You can only earn them for the active spec weapon.

They allow you to add additional bonuses like skill damage, repair, spec side arm, protection from elites, various weapon damage buffs.

[charred shore]

The beginning of viewpoint museum on storymode. There's a cluster of enemies, more than 4 but it should still count?

[trim meadow]

Air and Space Museum?

American History Museum?

Viewpoint Museum?

[charred shore]

Viewpoint museum not the other two

[trim meadow]

Can I abandoned a mission after starting?

[charred shore]

Yes

[trim meadow]

How ? Just by leaving mission area?

[wispy merlin]

you know how to reset mission?

[trim meadow]

Nah man, that's why

[nimble spruce]

Open map, go to mission options, pick a difficulty (even the one you're already on) and it'll reset the mission

[trim meadow]

It's showing me I've to do the mission

[nimble spruce]

It'll also reset skill cooldowns, helpfully

[charred shore]

You can just fast travel away and start up another mission

[nimble spruce]

You can also down yourself with a grenade or something to reset from the last checkpoint

[trim meadow]

You guys are genius, start everytime story mode, leave the mission area fast travel to white house for granede. Applied skill build for foam luncher.

Complete

Wow

[charred shore]

Perfect! Glad it's done.

If you have other questions ask here, I'm sure someone will have the answers you need

[trim meadow]

Yes I've one, There was a mission where in the end maybe. 3 body builder strong guy came. 1 is boss and other 2 by his side. It's hard to kill him there have 4 mounted machine guy in that level. I forget which mission was that.

But I died too too many time to complete that. He was so strong. Wanted to try with new build and skill.

And beginning before he enter all the electricity went off and they arrive. There have a bar in the middle.

[nimble spruce]

Sounds like Wall Street

[trim meadow]

Yes Yes, Finally. This guy killed me lots of time lots

[sage badger]

Lmao which guy

[junior sequoia]

Dragov I assume

[trim meadow]

James Dragov, I had no build. I had no idea what is build. I used to use any brand anything which give me more damage or more health

If I saw I got more armor and health with this mask I used to hit space button like a madman to equip that item

[sage badger]

It happens, we all started there

The build crafting is so much fun in this game once you understand it

Designing a christmas build as we speak lmao

[trim meadow]

I still don't Kettle told me there is spreadsheet and I just copy paste from them 😂

[sage badger]

Get some good builds going, a great tank, healer and DPS build, lets you do any content in the game. Get extra good pieces and you'll be crafting your own unique builds

[trim meadow]

I love this kind of apocalyptic game so much the vegetation the mother of nature taking over is so fascinating for me. Like I create all art based on apocalypse and Spaces

See 😂

And that's why I've never focused on build or anything like library, expertise, resourse, jounrey mission, priority objective, bosses, bounties nothing. Just admire the environment. And then slowly @nimble spruce and more people from this community helped me to understand this game.

Thank you everyone for the help and kindness

[sage badger]

Most of the community is great and you'll find some bad apples but people will always help new and returning players

[open mountain]

i’m the baddest apple grrrrrr

[trim meadow]

So you're the one Evil queen used to poison Snow White?

[warm root]

Is the kickback bad?

[trim meadow]

What is Kickback?

[warm root]

When you shoot does the aim stay on target or does it gravitate upward as you are shooting

[trim meadow]

aim stay on target

[warm root]

🤘🏻

[trim meadow]

230 mag with focused aim it's amazing for me.

Worst exotic I got Meciless

[inner tendon]

@warm root In div2, the term for that is "Stability", and it's an actual stat that you can modify.
Weapon Handling in particular, as 1% of it gives 1% of each of 4 stats. (Stability/Reload/Swap/Accuracy(reticule bloom)).

[winged bane]

What do you think is it very bad xd

[trim meadow]

How to change region in division 2? I think Asia is causing me to find less people in matchmake

[sage badger]

My scavenge directive is stuck on in the summit, anyone else having this issue?

[nimble spruce]

This is really a question for #td2-build-advice , but yes. Those three green pieces are only giving you a core stat and one minor stat. If you used high-end pieces you'd get an extra three minor stats, three brand bonuses, and a chest talent.

[nimble spruce]

Yes - it's mixed up with special ammo (not just in the summit, in the open world too), you have to turn them both off.

[sage badger]

I'll do that, thank you so much!

[whole sundial]

I was having the same issue last night, fragile armor doesn't repair a broken segment every time as well.

[nimble spruce]

Fragile armor has been bugged like that for years. Best advice is to avoid applying an armor kit while you're under any status effects, that seems to reduce how often the bug happens. Getting downed is generally the only fix once the bug does happen though.

there's still a short cutscene when you enter the area to fight Sparkles in the Stovepipe manhunt

[sage badger]

Where do I turn off the modifiers? I don't care for the rage mechanic

[patent vigil]

Inventory, at the top in the middle.

activate/deacvtivate will be at the bottom of the new view.

[sage badger]

Ty!

[weak coral]

Cracked

[quick dome]

can anyone tell me why i only got the lullaby and its blueprint but not the ruthless?

And no it is not in my mailbox/grant section

[green agate]

so im starting to level my expertise...gonna start with ARs, what's a good point to move onto the next category for weapons? im 7/48 with ARs currently

[daring field]

Does anyone know why my 16,000,000 damage only breaks armor?

[quick dome]

enemy has a helmet

its breaking that

[daring field]

Can it be penetrated by some means?

[quick dome]

you can hit it for 200m and it still wont kill unless you do it again

[daring field]

😭

[wispy merlin]

determined moment

[low lynx]

Did you check if it’s on any of your alternate characters?

[quick dome]

ooh i have not i will try now

not on any of them either

[low lynx]

Even your alt mailboxes? Idk if you’re trying to do the “thing” I just know how weird it is sometimes with those when you make a new character

[quick dome]

yup its on none of them

also what is "thing"

i also bought the pack on my main character and the lullaby showed up immediately

[bold tiger]

maybe the watch mule leveling for them extra materials

[quick dome]

oh i have mules but its not on any of them

[bold tiger]

hopefully you didn't do something like pull the weapon on a mule, deleted it with the weapon in the inventory

[quick dome]

it hasnt shown up at all to pull it

[low lynx]

Maybe try making a new character in Dc, logging out immediately after starting the prologue and deleting that character. It makes them pop up on your main when you log in after deleting a character as long as no other copies exist , this is the “thing”

[quick dome]

omg it worked bro ❤️

you're a king

[craggy lagoon]

I just hit level 40, is gear from normal difficulty the same stat weights as harder stuff or is there still “gearscore”?

[bold tiger]

at 40 gearscore goes poof. now you're just getting level 40 gear

[craggy lagoon]

Ah ok thanks

[pseudo tundra]

just look at the stats bar, full means good, low means bad

[quick folio]

LADIES N GENTLEMEN, WE GOT EM (sorry for caps)

[valid bronze]

Now backpack

[quick folio]

why would i need a backpack, i have a airaldi backpack, and habsburg mask

[valid bronze]

Ew wtf are you running

[quick folio]

2pc habsburg, 1pc airaldi, 3pc hotshot

for legendary moedel 700

[nimble spruce]

Nice one. I got trolled by the game earlier, Habsburg chest with chc, chd and hh

[quick dome]

damn bro i tried for that chestplate for agesss man

[quick folio]

yea took me like 750+crafts maybe?

[quick dome]

i too have succumb to this fate

[quick folio]

i honestly cant believe i just got it

like i was bored, was like might as well try some crafting (had a mule for it) and there it is

[quick folio]

u still attemping it?

i know u said u gave up like after 300 a week ago or smth

[nimble spruce]

Nah I crafted a couple of hundred several months ago then decided it wasn't worth the effort

[quick folio]

bro 99% gamblers quit before hitting big

(insert the digging mmeme with diamonds)

[nimble spruce]

It's not really big though, would make very minor difference to my build at best

[quick folio]

ikr, this will at most give me 1.5mil dmg

[open mountain]

@bold tiger throw a demo firefly at these 5 and get up to 5 eggs per run

then just wipe after picking up the eggs

with a skill build

i use fire sticky to wipe

[bold tiger]

thank ya, wasn't exactly sure since all they said. demo firefly and getting 50 eggs the wiping and repeat

[open mountain]

you can let them stack up

[bold tiger]

oh yeah definitely. done that with the mini tanks or the chunga with the belts

[open mountain]

so if i get them to drop 5 right now and wipe and do it again ill pick up 10 when i pick that set up

its just leaving them on the ground

[bold tiger]

another video "bunker kill the rushers, die and repeat"

[open mountain]

#easy

[bold tiger]

i tried the bunker, seemed slow going for my tastes

cause you know their twitchiness even when rushing you. i either hit the head or crotch and they die from being in normal difficulty

[gray terrace]

fastest way to get the eggs is the black tusk heavy gunner's ammo belt to his gun

[bold tiger]

that one feels slower to me honestly, unless you're lucky getting 2 of them and you just go back and forth between the 2

[quick dome]

time flys when you're having fun!

[bold tiger]

honestly not fun watching them fumble putting the belt back into their gun. least to me. 2 of them is pretty amusing. had 3 that was rough

[open mountain]

nope its pathway park demo firefly spam

i jus did it in like 13 minutes

[daring wren]

It’s compton. Trust 😎

[quick folio]

is there a skill that one shots warhounds or such?

[bold tiger]

not that i know of, but there's an EMP sticky that just hitting them disables them for a period of time

[quick folio]

meh, so going determined isnt gonna work out against black tusk?

or is there a workaround

[quick dome]

nemesis sniper

[quick folio]

it does like a mil and a half

[quick dome]

charge it up after you use determined on dog

should be able to 1 tap a purple if charged nemesis shot

achiles pulse to help

[quick folio]

maybe if i have HH stacks

[quick dome]

if you have hh stacks you can 1 tap the dog easy problem is it resets it and your next determined shot will do like 6/7 mil

[quick folio]

thats not what i ment

[quick dome]

so you charge nemesis shot to get a free 1 tap to build some hh

[quick folio]

i got left with the dog only, without hh stacks or determined

no enemies around

i assume achilles and charged nemesis could do it then?

[quick dome]

that seems like a very unlikely scenario to occur

[quick folio]

its literally in the first area of roosvelt

2 dogs didnt move from the left corner they spawn in

while i killed every other ad

[quick dome]

how many other ads were there?

[quick folio]

idk a lot

not enough for me to go from dog to a human and vice versa

[quick dome]

did they spawn in with them or after the ads were cleared

[quick folio]

they were the last two ads

prolly spawned with them idk

[quick dome]

well if they did spawn with them you can probably human to dog them

double ad then dog rinse repeat

[quick folio]

if i had a human tho

the whole point of this conversation is how to deal with dogs if there arent any humans around to leech hh/determined

achilles is an option

[quick dome]

yeah but the point is to not end up in that situation in the first place if your running hh

[quick folio]

i wouldnt've ended up if the dogs moved from their spawning point

but they stayed there unnoticed

[quick dome]

well if we are going purely of 2 dogs no ads idk if a charged nem shot with achiles is enough but it might be

the only other option i could think of would be dodge city gunslinger stacks and pistoling with achiles

[quick folio]

smart

[quick dome]

what difficulty are you on? i might be keen on testing

[open mountain]

headhunter

you are just forced to drop stacks on them

[wispy merlin]

if you don't crit you lose 90% of your damage by hitting legs, and if you hit elsewhere you're hitting their armor plate

headhunter bypasses this damage reduction

[open mountain]

if you emp

[wispy merlin]

and if you're out of hh you're just SOL

[open mountain]

and if you can get super close to it you can stuff your shotgun into its body and hit it for straight health

[wispy merlin]

yep ye old clipping tech

[quick dome]

honestly id just use my g28 which does half the damage of a good marksman but shoots fast asf too chunk the health down little by little

[open mountain]

i considered booting the game to do it but idgaf just trust me

[wispy merlin]

nah do it for the average player ❤️

[open mountain]

maybe if the below average player was asking

[wispy merlin]

i'm below average

[open mountain]

no you seem kinda average

[wispy merlin]

did you just assume my skill level

[open mountain]

just using profile clues

where the hell do i find a dog fast i cant think of a place without doing stuff i dont want to do

[quick dome]

how many exo components are spent for a max expertise weapon?

[wispy merlin]

camp white oak?

[daring wren]

BT public execution?

[open mountain]

federal emergency bunker after like 4 rooms

oh yea!

[quick dome]

is that normal difficulty i see?

[open mountain]

itll work the same in higher difficulties

just have to shoot like 2 or 3 times instead

idgaf so im doing testing on normal

[warm root]

When making an exotic blueprint is the damage lower than you would find if you found an exotic during countdown?

[open mountain]

no

[bold tiger]

@dry pond you see the numbers below the expertise level? like i'm 11 and 48/200

[dry pond]

Oh, I see.

So getting to a higher proficiencyt with mutliple gear sets/brands and such will increase the expertise?

And with every expertise level I can upgrade my gear once? Like when I reach expertise 1, will I be able to upgrade all my gear one time or only one piece?

[bold tiger]

you got it

think current max is 28

[dry pond]

Thanks dawg, I was confused AF but you cleared it up real nice.

[bold tiger]

one more picture i should've taken

[dry pond]

Picture of what?

[bold tiger]

all armor upgrades you do in expertise is only upgrade that base armor in white under the name of the gear

[potent wedge]

how do you grind out the summit floor 10? did everything to keep it on floor 10 but it just progresses to the next floor

[pseudo tundra]

did you try going back to the lobby?

[potent wedge]

yup

[pseudo tundra]

also the floor 10 farming is a very specific way to farm just items

not for XP

just kills the boss and restart

[potent wedge]

yeah ik, im farming for ARs currently

[pseudo tundra]

and only the boss

finish everything else and the floor will count as cleared

[potent wedge]

wait you mean, kill only the boss and then just go back to lobby?

[pseudo tundra]

well now just go to floor 20 and try again

yeah

it's on paper better to farm specific items at very high difficulty

[dry pond]

Damn that's pretty good actually. Always welcome more armor xD

What about weapons? What gets upgraded when u upgrade a weapon?

[bold tiger]

weapon base damage

[potent wedge]

basically dont complete the floor, just kill the boss then go back to lobby

[dry pond]

Daamn even more dmg.

Good stuff to look forward to eventually xD

[pseudo tundra]

yeah, wouldnt really reccomend doing it unless you are farming stuff at legendary for better rolls or exotic rates

[potent wedge]

i still get good stuff on challenging, just what you said, the rates are just a bit lower than if it was legend

[bold tiger]

in PVE content that amount of armor does jack for you
pvp might give you tiny edge
i don't upgrade my armor for that sole reason

[dry pond]

That makes sense, so its only really used to upgrade weapons in PvE?

[bold tiger]

it's what i do, not sure of others honestly. hopefully someone in the know will be in here and correct me on whether it's worth it or not

[pseudo tundra]

i think some skills might get a relevant boost

[dry pond]

Okay cool. I think I have a clear picture of the expertise system now. Thanks for all your help @bold tiger

[bold tiger]

you're welcome
like i said i hope someone more in the know of the expertise armor part can give a definite don't add to it or do add to it for upgrades

[dry pond]

Well dmg is for sure a priority anyway. And expertise is a long term thing anyway so might not get to upgrading any armor for a long while.

[bold tiger]

nods devs just gave us another avenue of prolonging their game for us gamers

[charred shore]

Is it another 100 eggs today? 🥲

[bold tiger]

probably

[quick folio]

should be 50 in my opinion, would be less tedious

[stone skiff]

The best way to look at the Expertise system is the Devs wanted to encourage the use of every Weapon (normal, Named, Exotic, Spec), Gear piece (normal, Named, Set) and Skill variants. In reality there are weapons, gear and skills that are simply not fun to use, that's where donating them and components is key.

[charred shore]

I made a quick clip to show the farm method I've been using on pathway. It's very easy. 5 eggs every 20 seconds.

[bold tiger]

nice nice, thanks!

[tiny stump]

nice im goin for it

[bold tiger]

@charred shore

[charred shore]

I will send you the image via dm

[bold tiger]

kk

i literaly googled Div 2 stitched valentine's mask and it showed this one XD

[pallid finch]

does playing on challenging/heroic change the blueprints you get for control points?

[bold tiger]

don't think so, just normal and hard you have to do 1-2 activites tied to it to increase it to 3 or 4

[warm bluff]

Can I earn specialization points with another specialization equipped? 🤔

[pallid finch]

ok thanks

[narrow kraken]

IM SORRY SIMO HÀYA HAS A SNIPER IN THR GAME?????

[bold tiger]

only way to get them points for the specializations

[pallid finch]

the only way to add friends is on ubisoft portal?

there arent any in game methods?

[tiny stump]

dang i wasnt expecting such big booms

[warm bluff]

Do I have to equip the specialization that I want to earn points for?

[bold tiger]

yes IE: you haven't played as a technician. equip technician go out do things and get points to spend upto 165 max

[warm bluff]

I see.. thank you

[inner tendon]

@warm bluff To make it easier, there's a lot of specific things you can do to get a ton of points very quickly.
Any Project or Bounty that mentions the points gives them, as does the first run of Invaded Missions per/week, and just straight-up levelling up your SHD.

[warm bluff]

Bounty, projects and weekly invaded missions. Got it, thanks!

[inner tendon]

No worries! Just keep an eye on the rewards list before you start it, any that have the Spec Tree icon that you have active and a number will give you that much.
Seems obvious, but you can get a loooooot per week.

[bold tiger]

was going to comment thinking the specialization unlocking projects gave some to, but think it was only from leveling in general

[inner tendon]

I'm going off an incredibly distant memory and what I can see ingame, tbh.

I don't think I've done them since like, 2019.

[bold tiger]

same here, i even gotten them preunlocked with them being in the year 1 pass i think?

for me it was prewony and gears 2.0 i believe?

you know back in the day when we had to wear 6 gear set pieces and be a specific specialization
think the gloves had a talent slot and mask as well? i forget the rest

[inner tendon]

Damage to Elites, ah DtE.

[green agate]

Is kenly exp farm gonna be a thing when it comes out again?

[bold tiger]

you know i totally forgot about that? was thinking it was Div 1 thing

only thing i vividly remember was clutch on gloves and berzerk chest

[tough marsh]

Exploits, once patched, rarely ever comes back, so no.

[bold tiger]

is that what they were asking about?
was assuming they wanted to know about the event

[inner tendon]

@green agate As it's become a "thing" for people to know about, it's now a matter of removal on this server.

Bringing it up enough will result in a warning.

[green agate]

well i kinda was askin but unsure how kenly works or what the event is for

[inner tendon]

The event is just "get some extra xp for doing kenly".

[tough marsh]

Oh

I forgot there was an event about it, my bad

[inner tendon]

IIRC the last time I checked, it was only 15 SHD levels.

[green agate]

ah okay

[bold tiger]

do you remember when we had the 5x xp. was that 1k levels?

[rugged stratus]

did it not get patched, the exploit part?

[inner tendon]

I don't get insider info, so your guess is as good as what the patch notes mentions.

If you do want to farm XP, control points are a legit way to do it, that is very fast.

[tough marsh]

Short answer, yes

[rugged stratus]

also has a guide 😉

[inner tendon]

If someone upstairs does tell us to pass it on to y'all, you can bet we'll do so.

[rugged stratus]

i just wasnt sure. something like that is usually common knowledge among the community

i been kinda doing 60hr weeks for a few so a little out of the loop

[inner tendon]

I can't speak for them, but judging by a certain off-site XP farm that resulted in bans before, MSV don't like to advertise that an exploit exists until it's fixed.

Fair call, honestly.

[bold tiger]

huh, i know most things that goes public gets patched and sometimes a lot of people get rolled back

[inner tendon]

Not many roll-backs overall, mostly just patch and forget.

the one I'm referring to above resulted in bans due to it actually affecting Servers, and multiple warnings+ban stages before the full account lock-out.

[bold tiger]

pretty sure a couple exploits i've seen made public that affected servers had some people roll back to a previous shd level of some sort, then again maybe it was click bait too XD

[blazing timber]

There are no exploits only features

[inner tendon]

Emphasis on the "not many" part.

[tiny stump]

the endless oxidizer thing at the pentco bounty or whatever it was. that ruined the game for me for at least a week

[green agate]

so i started donating ARs as junk to my expertise with countdown drops, and currently 9/38...whats a good point to move onto a different weapon type? im expertise 6 atm

[inner tendon]

Gearsets are a good "get these out of the way", if your main goal is donating.
Since every TL drop you get in CD, will count towards the total.

[green agate]

ah i see, so slap on 6 pieces and run CD to level them fast?

on top of donating too

[inner tendon]

That's a bad idea, as that means your build is going to be bad, and people will either kick you, or have to drag you, slowing down the process.
Just take a good build and clear it faster, so you have more to donate.

If you can, a good build that uses that particular Gearset, although that's not always applicable within CD.

[warm fjord]

What will happen with my mods when I salvage a weapon with mods on it? I’m afraid to test it, just lvl 15 atm so not many mods available

[slim elk]

You can purchase back the items you sold (in a certain period of time iirc), don't worry

[warm fjord]

Ah for weapons I still have them even when I salvage the weapon? But the mods in armor will be destroyed? Did I understand correctly?

Thanks ❤️

[cedar edge]

Who on earth did I just kill? An yellow NPC ran out of nowhere all alone at supersonic speed, I've never seen one of them before, any ideas?

[tough marsh]

From the manholes?

[cedar edge]

Not sure Pengi, I was just walking about and this dude came sprinting out of nowhere like Usain Bolt.

[hard blaze]

Never been this edged with a god roll before lol, dropped on Challenging as well

[tough marsh]

Did he attack you, or was he carrying a backpack and dropped some shiny loot?

[cedar edge]

He did not attack until I took his head off. Then yes, he dropped some nice shiny loot.

Yes he had a huge backpack on.

[nimble spruce]

That's the hoarder, often also referred to as the loot goblin. When a seasonal event is on, like the Easter one now, they drop some unique named items you can't get anywhere else

[cedar edge]

Cool, are there quite a few of them?

[nimble spruce]

They have a chance to spawn when you get close to one of their possible spawn points (generally big manholes)

If you want to farm them, there's three possible spawn points close to the DZ South main entrance, you can go there, run left into the car park, if you don't get one, or you do and kill it, just log off and on and try again

[cedar edge]

I was in West End near the big circular park waiting for some named enemies to come along as I need two for a project. I will have a look in S DZ later after UKColumn.

[warm fjord]

Which skills are you guys playing for solo?

[cedar edge]

Me?
