These need to be made for adults! https://mamoi.me/mamoi-baby-door-swing-cotton-door-hops-sustainable-bouncing-swing-for-babies/
loool
The main problem will be when they want to get out of the pool
SEE UBISOFT! SEE WHAT YOU HAVE DONE!!! You take the game away for three hours and we all start devolving and wanting baby bouncers for standing desks. lool
serveur seem up
did you @ someone who wanted to be knowing servers are up?
No server for me. 😦
you don't have the back door code?
How wude, getting in through the back door indeed!
room 641A
sever online ?
can't you hear isaac?
Sir Valians in danger!
ohhh sorry
There should be an Isaac Bot that we can ask if server is up. 🙂
I'm facing several UI bugs, Where should I submit report? In discord specific channel or Ubi website?
I would place a ticket at Ubisoft, but it could not hurt to put them in Discord as well.
If you're not sure if they're bugs, or other players might be able to help with them, then #unofficial-troubleshooting
Otherwise either open a ticket with support or head over to the official support discord linked in #rules
I got Mike-01 while trying to start the game. BUT my Friend is Playing the game right now! But I can’t enter the game because of the Mike-01 code.
Same here. Just without friends. :)))
Think your friend might be lying to you, the game is down for maintenance
I also need help with this im on pc but every time i try to launch the game i get Mike-01 it angers me because i love this game and was literally playing it yesterday
Strange… It says that he’s playing the game when I enter the ps app.
Then why doesnt it say it on the server status website?
There is an update going on. It started about three hours ago. The servers will be back up when ready.
I checked the division 2 official server status website and it said everything is running fine
That’s good to know.. but it’s strange that I can see my friend playing the game on the PS app, and that I haven’t seen any information about this update or an ongoing maintenance
Same
BTW when are they going to officially support cross platform play? I have some friends that play the game on ps5 and im on pc and u would think it would be pretty easy to do since even on ps5 u have to create a ubisoft connect account
They could just use ubisoft connect as a bridge between consoles
That's very unlikely to ever happen in this game
Kinda like epic games did
Everything sounds simple until it has to be done, then all the gremlins come out to play and screw up all the platforms.
They've said they would have to completely rebuild the server architecture to enable cross play/cross save, it's too big a job for their small team and not worth the investment for such an old game
I still can’t enter the game but he’s playing it right now.
sounds like they're likely just on the same mike screen but because the game is open its still reporting them as playing
Have you asked him? He's probably stuck at the character selection screen
Maybe console servers are quicker to update, or there were less bug fixes in console world.
I get it but has anyone heard any word on division 3 i really cant wait for it in my home town theres a little rumor going around saying the reason its taking a while to make is because this one is supposed to be a 1-1 model of the whole US instead of one state
That would be awesome
I wished they did like Hollywood, Las Vegas and all that…
That would be cool
It's in early pre-production, likely to be a couple more years out yet.
And no, there's no way they'd do a 1-1 model of the whole US, that would be insane.
And full of bugs…
But imagine a game like what i described u and your friend have to fight to defend what little structure there is left and explore post apocalyptic United States
Could you imagine the work necessary to do such a game. It would be insane.
It won't even be a whole city, the current games only have a few areas of the centre of the city
Ye i know, a man can hope tho
More wish than hope. 🙂
Closest you'll get to that would be MS flight simulator or similar
Then he have been stuck like that for at least 1h… And he hasn’t answer me yet.. probably because he have turned off the messages on PS…
Tbh the closest i have seen in a game to a recreation of the US was Crew 2 it wasnt a 1-1 model but it was the whole US
Likely just browsing social media or something and just checking in the game every 10m
Mike-01 is still going on…
Mike. MIKE. MIIIIKKKKEEEE!!!!!
Shame we got robbed of that title (nvm ignored the 2)
There is something called breathing… I don’t really know what it is but it sounds like a good thing to do right now… or play another game…
It would be insanely awesome tho imagine being in Tennessee or sum like that and calling up your friend on discord and he is doing a raid in Oregon or sum and yall could meet up and i could see it now its taken over by Tusk soldiers
😂
I want a restraining order against this Mike-thing…
Felt
I was so excited to hop on and work on my build
Yeah screw that mike guy
I wish we could take ownership of Doggies to be able to recover more gear at the pickup in DZ.
What kind of build are you trying to test out? 🙂
Someone with mike 01?
you forget to wine and dine mike-01?
He's a kill joy, I would not spend a dime on him.
Made me thinking about SIMONE movie were MC remove cherries Mike Ike from his pocket
3 hours of maintence😂
Four here, it started at about 08:30. 😦
5
Yep
Have they broke it? loool
So servers are down until 14:30 CEST?
Im in Europe
If thats 45 minutes from now, yeah
Yeah then pain
But server are dead...😔
Ashes to ashes, dust to dust... looks like it's time to start playing Rust. lool
SERVERS UP! Yeehaw!
Just a reminder that the image permissions in this channel are for asking/answering questions only.
Okay. Then, why is there a queue? 🤔 🤭
yeah, i'm just late to the party XD
Let me just go over to the other employees office and ask the game director personally, might take a minute.
did you not buy the division 2 extended warranty?
Damn it... I knew I should have read the fine print 🤦🏽♂️
oh exotic component cache at 110(edited in component)
Okay, I have a question. Do directives add to season XP? I forget 🤔
are theses the misshions for extra xp
They just have the targeted loot of a gearset in them
Not season xp, just regular xp I think. Priority objectives strongholds are probably the fastest way to farm season xp.
Yeah just SHD exp
Also if you haven't done the manhunt stuff that's a good chunk of exp. 30 levels or so just from that
Has anything about the Twitch Drops not working been mentioned? I have never had issues before with them, I had hoped this latest update to push them through
Is the grenade kills broken? Keep getting kills with grenade and it's not counting
I got the Scorpio skin
and your verdict?
Meh tbh don't like it , not much different than vanilla scorpio
Can we spoiler tag the manhunt clues for now please
I just got an eagle bearer from the Brooklyn cache
Can you equip/use it?
Yea
Straight up even optimize the attributes
This was amazing
Now I'm definitely grinding more levels lol
and now you gave a lot of people hope to get that in their 21 days of farming those caches unless they fix that like immedaitely
I won't be surprised if it is a glitch
Or something but who knows
more like a bug
I'm grinding more levels now and imma see what happenes
huh, ducks in mission? i bet a secret hunter?
Might only drop if you already have one, we'll see how many more reports appear
can confirm. found like two.
3 i think for me
i wonder what we will get for getting all of them.
i know wishful thinking, what if we got the Huntsman AR? 🤔
maybe. or probably a new mask like last time.
master difficulty is going to be a huge pain!
ong. attempted the Theo manhunt mastery with some buddies. we didnt get past the first segment. pain.
Which mission is that?
Kelso so far, not sure i'm doing it on heroic to finish it to open up the master but i'm already seeing it's going to be a huge pain
i honestly am curious to why theyt didnt release schaeffers btsu outfit as a manhunt uniform, like they have with all the other manhunts. but oh well.
too much yellow in the mission 👀
Laziness
real
honestly Deciets hunter uniform or any btsu outfit, like the sniper, would be sick. welp. anyways, does anyone got any locations for the other ducks?
Some YouTuber will probably upload a video with all locations in 12 hours or less
alr
me too
That's not a real one though...
That’s a beagle bearer though
🥹
i feel your pain bro.
wait can you actually get the hunters masks ask cosmetics?
yeah that ones real.
are the April fools guns just renamed or what's up with them
i think its real anyway, cuz i havent gotten one thrugh the caches yet.
Yes that one is real
The April fools guns are renamed and you can't use em
dumb.
oh damn ok
But the one I got and the one that other person got out of these new caches are 100% usable
I received yet another Mantis. If I didn't have bad luck I'd have none at all.
What's the best way to kill heavies for week 8 manhunt?
I got extremely lucky on the first cache now for the rest of my time opening these caches I'll have bad luck lol
I wish you luck @acoustic swallow
Thanks and you aswell
i just hope i find all the ducks in the mision
new mask hunter ?
That's my favorite one from now on lol
how to get
is that from the new manhunt? and does it have a full balaclava.
yes
team of 4 but only 1 person has
i need those ducks now then.
The Duck did not help Stunman Mike.
Go to Jefferson Trade Center and toggle the mission mode to Manhunt: Captain Lewis, clear out the first room with the jammers and a heavy should spawn.
Kill him, then select the mission and change the difficulty which should reset the mission, do it as many times as needed
what is the third clue of the 11th scout?
or wipe whenever you reach the two heavies in the parking garage.
whichever works ig. thats how i did it anyway.
10 grenade kills
Build for skill duration, riot foam, and collectors chestplate
You can get 5-10 if you go from the safehouse to the control point outside/the propaganda broadcast if its on
rate drop skin exotic ><
did anyone get a Wolves mask
no side mission/extra cutscene in the white house after the mission?
Keep spoilers to #division-universe
||check manny's door maybe?||
What is fast way to get season xp
🫣
priority objective strongholds I think
Missions, Activities, and Projects - the Season goes beyond 100 now for the upcoming DLC. "Brooklyn Activation" end in 3 weeks.
ive noticed there is an xp boost event again, is it like the one from this weekend?
Think it's battle pass XP only
awww oki
My mate cannot activate momentum for some reason. Anyone know why?
Activate is greyed out
Leader has to do it, sound like you're in a group
I have it activated, he doesn't
i'll try to deactivate and activate it for myself
yes, This is the way. 
this is a lot of birbs
A chance to earn seasonal exotics - including unobtainable ones like the Ouroboros or Eagle Bearer
so dose that mean the 101-110 levels has a chance to give you eagle bearer via exotic cache? (or whatever you get in those tiers for exotics)
look at DGKKnife1101's message #ask-td2-community message
nah, prbably the 101-110 brooklyn caches i'm thinking? the unless you're calling those exotic components?
idk i havent logged on yet
#ask-td2-community message
Death's embrace said they got an EB from a cache
I found 19 (!!!!!) ducks on Roosevelt island… shot everyone of them.. they go Kväck.. nothing more…
so you can farm alot of eagle bearers
and other things usually not available
You didn't miss any ?
heard people say 20ish ducks in the mission
I have no idea… I guess I did.. I think I ran around for 3h looking for ducks…
Some could be really well hidden like the one in the locker on Theo Master
without a video on it i wouldn't know it existed and if i did see them i wouldn't have found them all either lol
I found a few that were extremely hidden but I still only got 19 before I had to log out..
I missed 5 and used the video
whats the point of the ducks
Secret hunter
What video?
For the last 5 on Theo duck
Oh that one.. I thought there was a video from Roosevelt island
give it a few hours i'm sure one will crop up
you get a mask from the hunter or no? i still need to do the ivory keys
In a few hours I’m sleeping 😴 But I’ll take it tomorrow 🙂
I know you got a mask from the Theo-Ducks… an ugly gasmask..
each manhunt have its own ducks or smthn?
So I guess you get one from this one as well but I don’t think you get keys from them..
im aware about the keys part cause its only dc secret hunters
man i feel like the hardest fight is gonna be the hunter pair
Yes… The “duck”-hunters is only on the manhunt missions…
yeah, didn't take long. 33 minutes ago a video for 22 canards d'alani kelso roosevelt island - localisation - easter egg
also should i bother with trying to get someone to help with hunters masks? i hear there was a bug with only one person getting them
Did a hunter appear in the end?
i dunno, didn't watch the video just see it's on youtube
DM'd you the link to it
it's in french, i wouldn't be ablel to understand it 😹 sounds like a great language though
Didn’t understand anything but no hunter.. I guess it’s to open a yellow container..
ah
I don’t know however if there’s a last duck in the container..
But I guess I’ll find out tomorrow when I’m on a duck-hunting-spree 😎
maybe more than 22 currently?
I have no idea
whats 'Brooklyn Activation' (event thingy)
brooklyn activation obviously
i think it's basicaly a hype thing
DLC releases in 3 weeks from today
the scorpio one?
someone did, they weren't impressed
Yeah I posted it in #divashion
do you have a picture?
Yeah in #divashion
There are currently some bugs for 999 exotic componets
barfs in flipkick bag that looks hideous
Well it's free so obv it was gonna suck
A streamer pointed out the pest has a skin slot so maybe we'll get a shop skin before next season
how many lv to get lol
i dunno
It's rng to get, u get 5 caches every 10 bp levels
And caches give random items
how many skins are there in this event
Every 10 after 100
🥹
5 patches, 1 weapon skin, 1 top, 1 pants, 1 shoes, 1 hat, and 1 backpack as far as I know
Might be more they didn't clarify how many pieces were in the outfit
after achieving them there is not even a ! to signal new
was 2 outfits kind of thing wasn't it?
It's just the kickflip outfit
Where is the best place to level up pass?
Stronghold priority objectives, and scout targets if u haven't done them yet
so in the new plus 10 season levels can i only get the eagle bearer from the season exotic caches or is it every exotic cache like countdown etc
those are exotic component caches
yeah but in the patch notes it says A chance to earn seasonal exotics - including unobtainable ones like the Ouroboros or Eagle Bearer
i doubt the exotic component caches will drop exotics though
goto page 11 with the season pass, goto the red box and read what it is
i thought exotic caches at first then i reread it and was like oh exotic component cache
fastest bp xp right now?
pretty sure its the brooklyn activation cache
ahh okay back to farming scout missions lol
yeah, like i did they had a case of misreading the red boxes
They can drop as bonus items in Brooklyn activation caches
appreciate it bro, has to be extremely low drop chance🤣
It is I've opened like 16 and only got 1 exotic drop
someone got an Eagle Bearer from it and i thought maybe it was a bug and will get patched quickly
then someone posted the bit about getting normally unobtainable things like ourorboros and eagle bearar in patch notes today was like oh wow
I got oxpecker...
yay, you can watch your shield go poof faster!
do the enemies in master difficulty not scale with group size? I felt like the number and HP of them was the same when I (briefly) attempted it solo as it was in a group of 4
For ridgeway can u do warlords boses for kill rouges ?
no, needs to be those anonymous npc rogue agents
Okay how is it that the superior purple handgun is better than my custom high end pistol?
Best way to find them ?
run around listen for music and hope you run in their direction, play missions
Define better...
they have a chance of appearing mid-mission or clearing a CP or exiting a safehouse, but if you really want to farm them then summit is probably fastest. You need a checkpoint floor that is NOT a boss floor and has a door before the exit that has to be opened to progress. Then just reset that floor and jump bettween lobby and floor until you get a 'rogue agents detected' notification.
Look at the damage
Look ar rof, mag capacity, hsd
oh? i feel that should be pinned for later references. i never heard of that method
and hunters can i just go to normal countdown ?
not really a common enough requirement (people only run that ridgeway project once) to be worth pinning, I'd think
no, countdown hunters don't count for the project, you need mission/mask ones
Schaeffer, and both Kelso manhunt missions have hunters, although the new one only on Master difficulty
summit F100 counts too
Does anyone know how many ducks there are at kelso mission? I found 22 so far.
Whats the best way to farm expertise level?
do directives work for seasonal xp or just normal xp?
Donate all junk weapons and gear to expertise. You can farm at countdown.
How do you get the wolf mask
shame devs didn't gives us a shot gun that shot these
Commendation - Equipment Adaptability Merit
Is there no way to tell which brands have already been done?
Quiet Roar's perk any good? that seems like a big buff for suppresing
suppressing is making them stay in cover more so you really can't shoot them much
no, suppressing is an annoying mechanic that just makes your life harder, you want to avoid it where possible
but what if im running a build where i want them to stay there so i can rush them with a shotgun?
they don't stay suppressed long
hello, i do need a little bit of help, there is here a support chat or--?
What is troubling you Lady Sarah?
i finished all the quests and collected all the shade crates in the map, but still cant complete all the things shade crates related, i still need like 2 more
Do you have New York DLC?
yes i do, but my friend completed all the passives and active abilities without going on it
Are you trying to spend the SHD, or find it?
I ask as I had several left after completing all the missions/tasks, and I then found out you can open yellow crates in bases.
i need only 2 more, i already have all the active abilities, just this missing
and yeah if i check the map, i have NOTHING left
@inner tendon Can you help here, you are a fount of knowledge when it comes to this type of thing. I know as you helped me out so much.
This is cool. I got a kick flip backpack in a cache
Best not to ping mods directly unless it's a server emergency, Rivs is Australian and probably asleep.
I've seen a few reports recently of people not getting enough shd to unlock everything, while other people have more than enough (and how much more they have varies from person to person) which is very odd.
Ooops, hey ho. I'm a admin on a Rust server sometimes waking up in the middle of the night is a good thing. loool
what should i do?
I would say as a temporary workaround, head to NY. Each area has 5 shd caches and a big chest in the safehouse that you can use them to open. The chests have useless loot though so just ignore them and use the shd for your perk.
Can SHD be hidden if you have not walked past it? @nimble spruce
Maybe try this @harsh hemlock https://division2map.com/
Not in DC I don't think. Visiting the safehouse in each region should mark all shd in that area on the map, and the rest comes from clearly marked side missions and main missions. The hidden side missions don't reward shd iirc.
Hide everything but the SHD Tech.
the ones in NY are not clearly shown until you get near them though
yeah im doing it.. but that means i have to look for all of those without markes in the map in game a truly pain
if i do like that that means i have to not unlock sometihng from the dlc--
yeah but only a crate with really bad loot, nothing important
Yeah, sorry Ms Sarah I wish I could help more. I would say it is more than likely New York than Washington, but I am stupid and not too bright.
I am going to assume you cannot get either the Ouroboros or Eagle Bearer from these seasonal caches if you have not already obtained them?
not sure yet, haven't seen enough reports to say
Well lets just say i did some tests for science and all i got were only the 2 seasonal exotics (Glvoe and SMG) -_-
Any1 here already got the full brooklyn outfit?!!
have you done the Rayburn House side mission yet? It's one that doesn't immediately appear on your map like the others, you have to go interact with a laptop upstairs in the White House:
And i dont just mean once, they were the ONLY ones to appear in the caches lol
at least luckly is only the last perk of the loadouts so, rn i can ignore it i think? when i will go to NY, after i ll unlock all the NY thingis with shades, if i will ahve more shades than what i need i will spent in the loadout mhmh
oooooooooooh tyyyyyyyyyyyyy i found it tytytytyytytytty!!!! now i will ahve 4 more points unused ahaha
If i want a specific rolled golen chestpiece should i target chest or golan in cd
Golan
@nimble spruce You are a super star. Well done dude.
Looks like I don't have glasses 🥹
No. Im asking if it was the glasses, idk also if have it.. they should tell us how much cosmetics have..
can i upgrade to exotic my crafting station?
You got the exotic skin? And all 5 patches?
And how you grinded so fast? Any advice? I only got 2 cosmetics
It looks like there is some kind of bug that is causing you to get an extra round of the season pass.
yes it's a bug alright.......#division-tweets message
Some people can even open 999 exotic components
🤣
Would summit floor 10 be better to try to get max roll chestpiece? Or countdown
No, high end is as good as it gets
How many kickflip items are there in brooklyn caches?
I take it they are only season pass items, that are bugged. I'm gonna give up reading this channel as I get bugger all at the best of times. ROFLMAO
Does anyone know if the 5x applies to the 101-110 tiers?
Finaly got one lol
Are the chances for the raid exotics decent?
Flat NO lol
Of course, even then it’ll still be higher than the raids. 10% chance from the chest my ass, did 15 raids and never got one
🫣
how ?
just open the caches from the event, it's one of them
I just opened 50 exotics
woo, new graphics card in machine, time to test it out
dunno what's causing it, but you can get another set of caches
probably similiar to the xp bug last season, which caused to jump 60 or more levels of the season pass
what were you doing when you opened the cache?
just finished a prio objective to get points for the extended pass
what have you just done
stronghold ?
Do we not get a reconfigure blueprint for Birdies?
yea strongholds
hmmm
Someone can help me? The new Hunter mask, Walves Mask, is it random or do you only get it if you are leader? I did the master mission 8 times and nothing.
on master difficulty? it's random (the host may prioritized, but if the host already has the mask, someone else will randomly get it)
Well then I'm really unlucky. Thanks
Having a bit of trouble with the Morse code for activity 3 on scout number 11. Would anyone happen to know Morse code or no??
Trying to figure it out myself but it's not going out okay.
name stronghold
get a group with people which already have the mask, it will be a guaranteed drop for you
Ok Thanks
doesn't matter, it's not happening because of the stronghold
I just met a guy who also got 999 after clearing stronghold
because it will get you the most progress for the extended pass
Has anyone actually done the math on seasonal xp? Things like bounties seem like they give such a good amount for small effort
And do directives help gains or no?
What exactly is "Hive Efficiency" That Birdie's Quick Fix Pack has?
priority objectives
I feel like that's fine until you get something you just don't wanna do
Or wasting time on elite patrol's or the like
which cache has a "chance" to drop the eb?
box brooklyn
is the eagle bearer that good? i keep seeing everyone trying to get one
anyone wanna do the strongholds
Having a problem with WONY, My friend just bought it, yet he’s unable to access it. Any ideas on what to do?
Found out why, my friend has a physical copy from Europe. Is there anyway he can still play WONY without buying the game again?
what dose pfe mod mean?
Protection from elites gear mod
Ran Master a couple times in a random group, got the backpack but no Mask same as you.
how the hell do i turn off scavenged skills even when its already off on my global and mission modifiers
Its glitched out and swapped with I think it was special ammo
Thankyou Brooklyn Activation caches. Appreciate the gift.
How do you gain these caches, what missions/activities do you do?
is the bottom stats always active? (ammo, grenades, armor kit, ect)
While you have it equipped yes
Question if we purchased the "Burden of Truth Season Pass Bundle" and didn't receive the "invisible Man Outfit" how do we go about reporting this or opening a case pertaining to this?
Oh wow, It's real or just bug that they'll take away?
how long until the season ends? I have slow internet and there is a 3.3gb update, so I can't tell
2 weeks & 6d left
thank you
Fastest mission?
how much dmg can you get with Vile while using Scorpio?
ah so despite how fast scorpio can put them out they dont last long enough to hurt?
Anyone having trouble logging in? My agent isnt even appearing in the loading screen
@foggy tusk You can't play on Legendary in open world difficulty.
how long does the extended seasonal track run for? and its repeatable, right?
Till the 27th and yes
finally got Born Great and is the perk as good as it seems on paper?
I got 1 backpack, 1 weapon (Green) nothing else. LOL
Not even good on paper, unfortunately
Does anyone else have big issues with active directives?
I only want to activate special ammo but a lot of times it just switches to scavenged skills.
This is literally annoying af and i do not know whats happening.
Also Scavenged Skills seems to switch places in the order with special ammo a lot of times.
Sometimes Special Ammo is at the first spot in the list and sometimes Scavenged Skills is at the first Spot.
Anyone know how to fix the game switching the directives around? Its pretty hard as a skill build with the wrong directive.
I cant get Scavenged Skills to deactivate. 😦
Here the proof that directives switch around in the list. Where can i report a bug?
how do i off this, its annoying as hell
press M -> Projects -> Flip on all ! entrys and youre good to go for the day xD
where
even if you scroll down nothing there?
Maybe you can claim a project?
- nothing
- wdym claim
Okay interesting bug you have there o.o
i have that since i started playing
There's another daily project that's only visible if you buy the season pass, you can't get rid of that notification without buying it.
i have not bought the pass and can get that message to disappear 🤔
bruh thats sad
You learn to ignore it eventually
apparently it's a new bug where the special and skill are swapped
Good morning Agents. To open those 'Brooklyn' chests I take it you need to own the season pass?
i own the pass so no clue, but i'm assuming you just get to go 101-110 whether you own the pass or not
Good morning Lost Soul. Thank you kindly.
Its because you dont own the season pass, so you dont see the daily season pass project, but the exclamation mark is still there
Super annoying bug they haven't fixed in years lol
kind of is morning for me, trying to hash out them 101-110 as quickly as i can ;p
Same here, every time I log in the game. I set to special ammo it get back to scavenged skills.
any pc players have a way to fix the cache bug
Also I can't see my modifier list, can't see what skill mods I'm changing it show nothing
yeah my field prof caches wont open at all
Oh, no I have never had that issue. Maybe after you return to the game it will resolve itself.
nvm it's because my inventory was full lol
AH! Yes, I've done that. loool
Nice I don't have anything in my mailbox 0 items. Is there anything I've to do? Or battlepass?
😆
You earn them by leveling the season pass above 100
I did 101, it came into my cache box item area
So we have three weeks to gain the Exotic 999 bug, unless Ubisoft fix it and then only the chocen few keep them. 🙂
Yup, seems likely
If your caches are full then it likely goes to mailbox
Whats the 999 bug?
So you just open the +2 shd calibration cache and you get 999 exo components?
The exotic component caches are sometimes giving crazy huge numbers apparently, like 800 from a single cache
Ahh
Mail box empty, caches are empty. So I've to complete rest of them cause only complete 101. Let's see what happen today.
Good luck SrabonArafat.
It's going to take me the next three weeks to get anywhere close to the 100. 😦
In Skull And Bones there had a Unlimited money glitch people made billions of silver and trade them with valuable item. And after 2 season (Season 3) they decided to reset the amount for all of them (player) with 15M silver. And then people started to doing trade again and then in next season they again reset that in 15M people was angry cause after that first reset people earned next silver with their resource and ubi just take it like nothing happened.
Oh you new in division 2? I complete my 100 battle pass 4 days ago actually.
I've been playing since the middle of March. Really enjoying it, but wish I had 999 exotic components, as I might be able to get my St Elmo to play nice. I spent 20 on it and it is not playing ball. loool
I played this much and got most of the exotic that I need to play the game doing priority objectives, and cache from project. I had no idea I complete it without knowing it every time. People here helped me a lot about learning this game mechanism a lot, Kettle is a nice guy he helped me most and there some other people who is active like mad man. So keep asking here hope everyone here will help you whenever they'll get chance.
Then again I did receive a very nice Negotiator gear set with nearly all maxed out attributes. So it's all good. 🙂
I must be doing something wrong.
😄
yeah
Don't save that skin in any of your loadouts, apparently it causes crashes
what
That's funny, I have no skins on anything and the game crashes at least once a day. 😄
I've not even change the colour of an item.
Yeah but a crash that occurs every time you highlight a loadout in your inventory is a bit worse. It's just that one skin though
Not taking the p1ss Kettle, you are an amazing Moderator and always helpful.
skin base is even better
I played with striker build without any high status, then I played countdown in heroic mode with striker loot. then I got one high stats item and did 1 recalibrate. Then I setup directives to at least 75% and world mode in challenging. Did control point, DZ for priority objectives. Summit all floor once in normal mode, 21 in challenging with 125%-150% directives.
Did same control points several times by reset control point. Did lot's of bounties it's easy. And some how still in 488SHD. But learning the skill about this game.
Anybody got that % of haz pro needed for status immunity thingy
I have opened like 40 boxes and not getting 999. How did you do it?
don't worry about the 999 i think they'll take 999 in next patch
5x xp for season pass or SHD?
season pass
Before opening the chest, do you have any maxed materials?
already 100 done, so extra caches will come with this event right
I got 2 times to reset the entire chest
why not me
🥹
I'm thinking of stacking bounty and spamming them
168 exp /1 hmm
See a hot fix coming, don’t think this is intentional
Priority objectives give bonus season xp
I'm sick of that
1 fortress will give more than 1k EXP
5 Times the Zoo Made Me Crazy
Fair
So which is faster for Season XP? Bounties, control Point?
Out of those 2, it's gotta be CP's w/Directives.
Although Priority Objectives will be likely better than either.
Good evening Rivens.
The thing is, Open World, PVP (DARKZONE) worth it by time, Stronghold, mission takes too much time. Does it get paid well with XP? or same for all?
I still read AI (artificial intelligence)
@frigid moat so you're in this menu seeing 46/100?
I didn't think directives added to S-XP. Or is it only in missions that it doesn't add? 🤔
R these stretch goals season pass exclusive?
from the edited patch notes from yesterday? seems every season we'll be able to do these stretch goals
but no, no need to own the season pass to obtain them, just gotta be level 100 season
Thank god, I absolutely love this system. Other than the fact you have to do prio objectives
you don't have to, but that's the most efficient way for now
Glad I saved my scouts up
huh, wonder if i can do them objectives on a sub 40 character 🤔
I don't think you can
huh, they added new caches apparently
Milestone caches, yeah
interesting
At least one at lvl 35, don't know if there are any more
yeah, only picture i saw on other server XD
I've seen one or two other people mention them yesterday I think too
@bold tiger yes
level 35 character priority objectives 👀
Huh, when I leveled a new character a few weeks ago I'm sure they were locked to 40
hello i wanna do a question about abttle pass, yesterday it was sayign that it was finishing in 5 weeks-- today it says 2 weeks???
yeah, brooklyn DLC releases the 27th
2 weeks, but you gain 5x season xp this week so farm out some priority targets and you'll be there in no time
Anyways, i got filling that im like 5y behind with everything and three is just no timer to catch up for me, especially playing solo for me on challenging is hard, where when i left i się heroic 😔 best ofnluck you all and thanks for help
oh oki but can they do that? i mean i bought the pass 2 days ago cause i knew i had 5 weeks but--- eh..
Even two days ago we knew the season finished on 26th, they must have just forgotten to update the ingame timer. You could try opening a ticket with support, but tbh you can likely get to season lvl 100 in a few hours if you grind priority objective strongholds
im level 38 ish
i ll try to farm it as much as i can, i just dont know what are those priority objective? u mean the "Jurney"?
theres a 5x seasonal xp event going on right now if youre not level 100 yet so youll get there real quick
you hit esc on pc goto the current season far right box and get this screen
then when you hit that priority objectives tab you get this screen
i ahve this
Either abandon it or go complete it, then go pick another (whatever gives the most season xp, usually strongholds)
oki i ll try thank you for the help!
oh what a tease!
Idk I bought them since I had credits. opened them after completing Kelso mission and it gave me 950. Spent them on upgrading my builds guns and skills. Bought another ten opened them and it maxed me again. All but like 10 skills are 28 rn and my two main pve and 2 pvp builds and the good useful pve/pvp exotics and high end items are all lvl 28. Im ready asf for this dlc.
even to reach 30?
Oh yeah. Day 1
It takes well over 2k exotic components to max that much though. Cause I didn’t even do the skills I don’t use. Everything was 12.
And I maxed maybe in total like 50 pieces. Rerolled three exotics to have dttoc. I personally have seen and can now be the guy that says that if they’re gonna take away mule characters that they need to make upgrade system after 20 or so a bit cheaper or it’s gonna be uber mind numbingly long to get there. I went through 2k exotic components fast as fk. Got stacked back up cause I got another 10 and got it maxed again for lvl30 but I spent 100 or so so that I can atleast still deconstruct my exo drops and get the exo comps. It’s gonna be drained on day 1 if 29 requires 10 per piece.
- Put scorpio in stash
- Take it out on another character
- Return to bugged character and save loadout with missing item
- Go to character with scorpio and transfer it back
Fix for the scropio skin bug on loadouts.
That is what my name means.
here i read that as "that's my name don't wear it out!" lol
It's easier to just use "Rivens".
Yeah but it's really not expected or intended today you have so many skills, weapons and loadouts fully expertised
The finishing date on the pass is always subject to change
Took me a year to get my main and 4 guns fully done. So. I still stand with my opinion. Should be reduced again. But from 20 on
In these Brooklyn Activation caches, is there a chance to get exotics that you haven't even "unlocked" yet? 🤔
yeah ok i can understand but we talking about 3 less weeks not some hours
just think the longer one you saw was probably them giving themselves some time to finish up brooklyn for release, but things maybe going good for them so they changed it
Still applies
As far as we know, yes. Updated patch notes show drop chance of .5% with no mention of restrictions
also the big part at the end of this says each season
tbh in all my life i ve played so many games with battle pass and tbh i never ever saw or heard aabout a battlepass that received a "nerf" like that, but if the community accept it im noone to say anything i guess
Yeah its frustrating
and one more thing, i saw no news in game about the battle pass finishing earlier than what the game was saying so idk
i literally bought it monday cause i saw that i ahd 5 weeks to complete it
then today i checked the pass page in game and i was like that:
It sucks, yup. But at least its 5x season pass xp right now
yeah but what if i cant really do it this week :<
Rip. Always get to 100 first, then buy premium
In any game with battle pass
But yeah you were kinda cheated out of it lol
@nimble spruce with OD.. you mentioned you are running Centurion holster right? I see that on this type of build you are meant to swap weapons for the bonuses in damage etc.. what do you use for the second weapon talent? Vindictive?
well yeah ofc i do everytime like that, but again-- i "had" 5 weeks before
I run sadist on both weapons (carnage and an AR)
You can get both buffs on the same weapon if you switch from pistol to weapon and back a couple of times
ah.. got it.. vindictive seemed nice because of the swapping for that extra 21% crit chance and 20% crit damage for 20 seconds or something like that. I was just curious if you used it.
#td2-build-advice message
Was the build
ah right I forgot to look it up
Crit chance is already maxed and crit damage is a lot less valuable than the amplified damage from sadist
what do you run on Carnage.. crit chance or dmg to armor as 3rd?
i see a lot of people running crit chance
Can't remember. Prob crit chance but tbh I use the AR most of the time, just not a fan of how lmgs feel
Plus you can't use your bulletproof shield at max momentum with the lmg
I'm trying all kinds of versions on OD to see what fits my play style.. I have like 80% bleed resistance and I'm runing Backfire.. the damage is great and I am so used to running and gunning so I need the shield but I'm also so spoiled on reviver not sure how to solve proccing first status kill... I've been using Foam grenade but it's a bit unreliable as they run away from it..
80% bleed resist is fine for backfire.. it only hurts you for like a second.. not a problem.. but still not fully figured out how to consistently apply that status when I need it
is the difference between perfect sadist vs sadist noticable on AR vs LMG? that 5% seems like it could be felt since it's multiplicative damage
Like I said, I don't really use the lmg much as I don't like the feel of it. The large mag is handy for extra tanky enemies though.
what's the best way to find elite patrols.. are they shown on the map or just random luck to stumble upon them?
they show up on the map, but sometimes you might miss them as they're going back in
how do they look on the map? i mean the icon?
thanks naval, i was like how do i describe it?
Walkie talkie in 4 part segmented circle.
Radio with a pizza crust split for 4
Accidently diusmantled my chatterbox its in the general pool and i can farm it again from countdown right or i must open hyena keys again
You can do both. The parts have a high drop chance so might be faster than farming in countdown
ok ty
oke at least slowly doing it
Does the area difficulty matter?
not really
it's only a 3.8% difference (1.35 / 1.3)
the difference is small enough for different guns within the same category
ahhh yes.. thank you
If you do a couple of the Priority Missions you will get there far quicker. If you are in a hurry that is. 🙂
Not as far as I'm aware
Does anyone know how many pieces are in that kickflip outfit we get from the bonus progression?
Kettle, do you ever have a chance to play the game, or mostly dedicated to helping others?
There are outfits?
5
5 outfit pieces, 5 armpatches, one (bugged) weapon skin. The patch notes were updated to list everything.
yush someone said to do the stronghold priority i remember and doing those
If I'm very active in here, it's probably a slow day at work. I get some time to game, never quite as much as I would like...
Well I have to thank you and the rest of the moderators for your support and help, you are all very much appreciated here.
Oh cool. Thanks.
Mercifully, I thought the Scorpio skin was so ugly that I didn’t even bother equipping it to see if it would crash my game…😁
what is the best way to get xp after reaching level 100? cause i wanna get that exotic scorpio skin
anyone know which cache is dropping the 999 exotic components?
Priority objective strongholds. The skin is bugged however and will crash your game if you have it saved in a loadout
i mean i won't wear it till it's fixed, just wanna get it so that i can stop playing td2 till brooklyn arrives
cause that skin look SO GOOD
think the exotic cache from the strecth goals
what is that for
idk either but hey, it's there now
to craft an exotic pistol that's not as good as regulus
bruh
for pvp what are good defensive numbers?
no, just armor
what armour is passable?
Blue cores double as skilltier on shields
can i hide the body armor somehow?
You can change the look within the mod menu. Select item> hit f. Applicable mods for gear type dye, appearance, attribute
Some pants will hide knee, some chest apparel will hide chest armor piece
Full body apparel hides items as well
Can u do the final mission of the season with other people without doing it yourself?
anyone have advice on completing "eliminate 200 hostiles with aggressive drone" quickly?
high skill tier and just point the drone at everything and let it get as many kills without getting yourself killed, a mission or stronghold should have plenty of enemies to kill
oh oki and what about this slot?
i dont see anything in the shop
cosmetic armor from certain drops, got gloves and 2 packs
forget where i got the gloves from
drops like?
oh oki npnp
i know one pack is a login reward and the other is the season pack but imma logon and see if it tells me where the gloves came from
ping me if u will check it pls ♥
Some shop sets have bag rewards for completion I know that much
I have some oldish sets that came with chest rigs
right city rat set
from the city rat set from the bargain bundle
pretty sure its the bargain bundle
Yeah its the 5 dollar bundle
god i wish the city rat outfit was split up, it looks so good but hard to match
So the chest/knee/back/gloves in this section are also appearance mods but they arent from any of the normal gear. These are either premium purchased/apparel event type items. The stuff you apply via the inventory screen with be appearance of existing items. Like using a heartbreaker chest, but making it appear like a striker chest, as an example
My first Exotic in nearly a week, Dread Edict. Bullet King would be nice, but I'm not allowed nice things.
havent gotten dread yet but i got a max rolled bullet king
sucks i dont have a build that could make good use of it
is there a build that works for bullet king? its a fun gun and seeing that roll gather dust makes me sad
Is it true about the exotic percent increase in raids? If so is it available now to farm out?
im using it
i can send in some mins when i log in
dope thanks
Where is the Gatehouse facility on my map? I am new and trying to do the story in order.
striker was expected cause they both use hits, im guessing the chest is Zero Fs but wtf is the mask?
armor on kill can be helpful i guess
and u can combine it with the armor on kill from gunner spacialisation if i remember good
could probably swap the mask with coyote's
i think so
Or contractors gloves for the dta.
actually i m using it now too ahaha ty for the idea!
How lucky am I, lots of people talking about getting 999 Exotic reconfigures and I get... 1. ROFLMAO
Did anyone have the hunter mask not dropping in kelso mission? Because didn't get it
Did you do it solo or in a group? In groups it only seems to grant it to 1 player, likely a bug. It's possible it grants it to the player who gets the final kill, but not 100% confirmed I think.
i dont have contractors yet
how hard is the washington monument hunter? havent fought them in years
Depends on your world diff and build I guess.
Can always do hunters on normal.
should probably turn off hard while solo then
should probably swap to striker cause i wont be getting kills for memento unless the hunter skills count
Once the 'Hard' difficulty becomes a walk in the part Legendary becomes quite fun. Heroic is still too much for me right now. Do not limit yourself, YOU CAN DO IT!
Oh, I am a lone wolf also.
i have zero problems doing regular activties on hard (except certain elite events) with special ammo, scavenged skills, fog of war, and fragile armor on
Could it be that the german translation is...not implemented?
Seems like an error
the matador pack good for rushing enemies? or does the bonus armor get wrecked too fast?
it gets wrecked fast but it's one of the best consistent ways to get bonus armor by playing agressively
it goes well with hunter's fury
so hunter's fury, matador and chest with intimidate was quite a popular build a while ago
I'm using Tardigrade, with Hostage Negotiator x4 and Turmoil knees with a few armour/armour regen and it is working very well. A little tanky but vaporizes NPCs.
Yes
Oh, mostly using Pestilence or St Elmos.
On normal?
Once Momentum is going it is unstoppable, then when you hit overdrive (when necessary) it aboslutely destroys everything
Says more about the modifiers than the build...
No, I am on challenging.
Dont need tardigrade or turmoil. Nego is strong regardless. Much stronger when you use glass or oblit on highend chest
I really should try out an ND setup nowadays.
You really should 😎
coyote's mask triggers on hits not kills right?
What is ND?
Negotiators Dilemma
Thank you. 🙂
Would i get more reconstructed caches in descent killing the nemesis and restarting or going for high loops
Havent played in a while and need some help, i completed Journey 4 but i cant claim any rewards and cant Progress to Journey 5, anybody know what to do?
what amount of armor is considered tanky? 1mil?
also does the decoy work on hunters and/or their skills?
1mil is not tanky, nah
even if im only at 120 SHD lvl?
Generally depends on the Content
what is the rank? and can i raise up it? if it s some,thing that i need?
profciency, just use it
Its the Expertise System, goes to Rank 10
oh so it s just-- a flex? ahaha idk
after awhile you can increase your expertise lvl in it and it turns into this
oooh every 10 levels?
Once It’s at Rank you can apply a 1% Bonus up to your Characters overall Expertise Level
nah its your expertise lvl
ooooh
It should be noted: the bonuses gained via Expertise are absolutely not as good as they look at first glance.
this to be exact
@inner tendon well yeah 1% alone is ehw but maybe 10% can be a thing ish?
Just slap it on the Gear you really like to squeeze a little bit more damage out, its costly
yea it does get expensive but its really for your favorite gear
the tl;dr is that on guns, its based off the weapon damage before/as red cores are applied, not after.
So for example, 20% Expertise is not a 20% buff.
Ok does anyone know at what shd lvl a mule would have to be at to get max supplies thru scavenger
yea its a base increase before any other changes right?
Can you specify this question?
When turning in shd points in scavenging to hit the cap of 9999 for everything what overall shd level would you need to be to max all those out
I'm trying to see where I would need to be to reset my 3 nukes to get them back to 40 to max out all supplies before brooklyn
Mules not nukes lol
I'd say above 8k
.....i overreacted to the hunters, killed Demon in 2 G36 mags and one Scorpio mag
and only used one heal launcher
are those "coins" useful?
yes. you can spend them at the countdown shop laptop. most people spend them on exo caches
ooh where it is?
Where you spawn at the White House, right hand turn, left side of the Seasons Vendor
it's a laptop
Hey guys I just got a named pistol with +1 skill tier. Do I have to equip and use it to get the skill tier or just equipping it will give me the skill tier?
pistol has to be equipped/on hand
Gotchu thank you
is that considered target loot?
don't think so, it's more of a random item
doesnt it go well the with pistol shields considering it buffs them the second you pull it out?
sad
Hey folks, are the caches bugged for anyone else? Wont let me open them
Same thing happens to my Field Proficiency Caches
your backpack is 1 item away from being full
details matter
Thought I just got scammed 😭
yeah but shield with a pistol?
unless it's regulus I wouldn't use it
thank f**k i obsessively clean my stash and inventory, never had this problem
I just donate to Expertise and send items for builds that I don't regularly use to stash
my god what is happening to me and this keyboard
do we have a hat like the one the enemy has?
I have a question. In the pre-orders I got, the Season Pass Extension says:
'Available to redeem after 4 times'
What exactly does that mean?
i have a question i have completed 29/33 main missions but i cant find the other four what do i do
Season pass extension is just a series of looping rewards
Unrelated to pre orders
Have you done the ones outside DC? Pentagon, darpa, zoo, camp white oak, both coney islands
pentagon and coney islands are both side classfied as side missions im looking for "main missions:
ok bet i will do that than thank you
But if that's still not it my guess is they're most likely invaded missions. They refresh weekly so I don't see a point in completing that part of the progression. Afaik it doesn't reward anything anyway
what does DTTOC mean?
damage to target out of cover
it's a separate multiplier from almost everything else, and it being 10% makes it basically the top attribute
(for guns)
so its a must have on guns?
sure thing
thanks ^^
@slate solstice you try mousing over and hitting G not hold just tap G on capital?
@pseudo tundra I'm gonna give it a go here with what I asked about.. If i get muted can you unmute me.. I'm not sure how much text even if I split it bot will tolerate. Thanks. I think this will be very valuable to newer players as much as it has for me.
The Division 2: Damage Calculation and Buckets Guide
Since I am a fairly new player to Division 2, I was trying to understand how damage works in the game. So I'm writing this guide to shed some light on how damage is calculated in Tom Clancy's The Division 2, thanks to the work of community over the years and testing, including the distinction between additive and multiplicative bonuses and how damage buckets are organized. It is designed to help other players like me, who are newer to the game and were curious to learn and understand and optimize builds and maximize damage output.
Overview of Damage Calculation
Damage in The Division 2 starts with a base damage value (from weapons or skills) and applies modifiers from various categories, or "buckets." Within each bucket, bonuses are additive, and across buckets, they are multiplicative. The simplified damage formula for a single shot (e.g., a critical headshot) is:
Damage Dealt = Base Damage × (1 + Sum of Additive Bonuses in Bucket 1) × (1 + Sum of Additive Bonuses in Bucket 2) × ... × (1 + Multiplicative Bonus 1) × (1 + Multiplicative Bonus 2) × ...
Each bucket represents a category of damage modifiers, and the game multiplies the results of each bucket to compute the final damage.
The Division 2: Damage Buckets Deeper Dive
Damage bonuses are grouped into buckets, with bonuses within a bucket being additive and buckets being multiplicative with each other. The primary buckets for weapon damage are:
-
Base Damage + Weapon Damage (AWD and Weapon Type Damage):
- Includes: Base weapon damage, All Weapon Damage (AWD), Weapon Type Damage (e.g., LMG Damage, AR Damage), certain talents.
- Behavior: Additive within the bucket. E.g., +15% AWD + 10% LMG Damage = 1 + 0.15 + 0.10 = 1.25 multiplier.
- Notes: Forms the damage foundation, multiplicative with other buckets. Overstacking leads to diminishing returns.
-
Critical Hit Damage (CHD) + Headshot Damage (HSD):
- Includes: Critical Hit Damage (CHD), Headshot Damage (HSD).
- Behavior: Additive within the bucket. For a critical headshot, multiplier is 1 + CHD + HSD. E.g., +50% CHD + 60% HSD = 1 + 0.50 + 0.60 = 2.10.
- Notes: Critical Hit Chance (CHC) determines CHD application but isn’t part of the multiplier. Multiplicative with other buckets.
-
Amplified Damage (Total Weapon Damage Bonuses):
- Includes: Bonuses labeled "Total Weapon Damage" or "Amplified Damage" (e.g., Glass Cannon, Intimidate, Striker’s Gearset), Damage to Targets Out of Cover (DTOOC), Damage to Armor (DTA), Damage to Health (DTH).
- Behavior: Additive within the bucket, multiplicative with others. E.g., +25% Glass Cannon + 30% DTOOC = 1 + 0.25 + 0.30 = 1.55.
- Notes: Highly valuable due to multiplicative scaling. “Amplified” or “Total” often indicates multiplicative behavior.
-
Enemy-Specific Damage (e.g., Damage to Armor, Damage to Targets Out of Cover):
- Includes: Damage to Armor (DTA), Damage to Targets Out of Cover (DTOOC). Damage to Elites (DTE) is rare but exists on specific mods.
- Behavior: Typically multiplicative with other buckets. E.g., +10% DTA = 1 + 0.10 = 1.10 multiplier against armored enemies.
- Notes: Crucial for PvE against armored enemies or those out of cover. DTE is less common post-Warlords of New York.
-
Talent-Specific Multiplicative Bonuses:
- Includes: Unique multiplicative talents (e.g., Intimidate, Focus, Aces & Eights, Eclipse Protocol).
- Behavior: Applied as separate multipliers, often forming their own bucket. E.g., 1 + talent bonus.
- Notes: Conditional talents (e.g., proximity for Intimidate, scoping for Focus) are usually multiplicative. Verify talent descriptions or test in-game.
-
Skill Damage (Separate for Skills):
- Includes: Skill-specific bonuses (Skill Tiers, +Skill Damage, skill-boosting talents like Ongoing Directive).
- Behavior: Additive within skill damage categories, multiplicative with other buckets. Some weapon damage bonuses (e.g., Total Weapon Damage) may apply to skills like Assault Turret.
- Notes: Skill builds prioritize +Skill Damage and talents. Weapon damage interactions are complex.
curious does flanking an enemy count for the out of cover bonus or do they gotta be moving?
they have to get out of cover
damn if only it counted flanking
Damage Buckets Summary
- Bucket 1: Weapon Damage: AWD, Weapon Type Damage, certain talents (additive).
- Bucket 2: Critical Hit + Headshot: CHD, HSD (additive).
- Bucket 3: Amplified Damage: Total Weapon Damage, DTOOC, DTA, DTH, talents like Glass Cannon (additive).
- Bucket 4: Enemy-Specific: DTA, DTOOC, rare DTE (often separate).
- Bucket 5: Talent-Specific: Unique multiplicative talents (e.g., Intimidate, Focus).
- Skill Damage: Separate buckets, with some weapon damage overlap.
this post is accurate
Practical Example of Damage Calculation
For a critical headshot with:
- Base Weapon Damage: 10,000
- Weapon Damage: +50% AWD, +15% LMG Damage
- Critical Hit and Headshot: +100% CHD, +60% HSD, 50% CHC (assume critical headshot)
- Amplified Damage: +25% Glass Cannon, +30% DTOOC
- Enemy-Specific: +10% DTA
- Talent-Specific: +35% Intimidate (active when enemies are within 10m)
Calculation:
-
Weapon Damage Bucket:
- 0.50 + 0.15 = 0.65
- 1 + 0.65 = 1.65
- 10,000 × 1.65 = 16,500
-
CHD + HSD Bucket:
- 1.00 + 0.60 = 1.60
- 1 + 1.60 = 2.60
- 16,500 × 2.60 = 42,900
-
Amplified Damage Bucket:
- 0.25 + 0.30 = 0.55
- 1 + 0.55 = 1.55
- 42,900 × 1.55 = 66,495
-
Enemy-Specific Bucket (DTA):
- 1 + 0.10 = 1.10
- 66,495 × 1.10 = 73,144.5
-
Talent-Specific Bucket (Intimidate):
- 1 + 0.35 = 1.35
- 73,144.5 × 1.35 = 98,745.075
Final Damage: 98,745 for a critical headshot against an armored enemy out of cover with Intimidate active.
Notes: Adjust CHD+HSD for non-critical or non-headshot scenarios. Additional talents add further multipliers.
Practical Build Damage Optimization
- Diversify Buckets: Spread bonuses across buckets for higher damage (e.g., Amplified Damage over more Weapon Damage).
- Prioritize Multiplicative Bonuses: Talents like Glass Cannon, Intimidate, DTOOC, or Focus scale better than additive Weapon Damage.
- Test in Shooting Range: Verify talent behavior (e.g., Sadist may be multiplicative despite labeling) due to inconsistencies.[]
- Balance CHC and CHD: Multiply CHC by CHD to estimate impact. Optimize based on build needs, not fixed ratios.
- Enemy-Specific Bonuses: DTA and DTOOC are vital for Heroic/Legendary PvE content. DTE is rare but useful when available.
Conclusion
Damage in The Division 2 is calculated by multiplying base damage by additive bonuses within buckets (e.g., Weapon Damage, CHD+HSD) and multiplicative bonuses across buckets or from unique talents. Optimizing a build consists of diversifying buckets, prioritizing multiplicative bonuses, and testing in-game.

though the buff names are from div1
I was looking around all kinds of info so feel free to correct me so I can update.. this was a useful research
i'd recommend finding some posts that give you the actual formula
this isn't complete but it's close enough: https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/gi0uel/weapon_damage_101_bullet_damage/
if you have specific questions on what multiplier a buff applies to or in general what a buff actually does, just ask here. some tooltips lie to you
Should update all that to a google doc or evernote so it's not random text walls 
i see alot of people useing technician as specalist is that skill tree that good?
okay.. I updated the damage research I did above.. I also included the links (the one from @wispy merlin ) and another one.
It's a free skilltier when leveled. Also faraday perk is popular for certain builds
i see should i also use that eventho im useing the shield whit revive hive i dont think they benefit from the skilltier or do they get stronger?
does anyone have the capitol building un locked need it for a priority obj
@wispy merlin so after this research.. I can give you my thought again about Focus being so strong. It IS multiplicative. Since it belongs as a separate multiplier (it's own bucket) in the final overall calculation with other buckets, it becomes actually 60% multiplicative addition to overall calculation. That's why it's so strong. Since some of these talents are treated as their own bucket.
now you understand my whole point
it is multiplicative and additive at the same time
it is additive to it's own bucket.. right.. so if there was another talent that fell into that Focus bucket, they would be additive 1+0.6(Focus) + x.x (whatever) but since this is a bucket on it's own that 60% is now multiplied with other buckets.. so it's multiplicative to overall damage, additive in it's own bucket but since it's alone there's nothing to add it to 🙂 But yeah I get your point now what you meant to say.
Shield does. There is also a tech class artificer hive that repairs skills, like shield, passively while its stowed on back 😉
Add memento to that for another 2 shield tiers and a bunch of skill efficiency and you are sitting on a pretty strong setup before factoring in the rest of the build
yes, i'm glad you put in the time to research
thanks ^^
Tech class also has linked laser that pulses npc when aimed. Another reason you probably see heartbreaker users on that class
even if it is paired with vigi which is 25% twd, it still is among the best
you can see why people panic over streamline
i did see alot whit armor combos that scans enemies or smth so you do more dmg on them
Tech laser is OP this season since it makes people pulse and I believe it works with Microwave Coils too.. but don't take my word on that
is there a way to farm the points for the skill tree fast?
Invaded stuff
Weekly projects
Leveling should give some
Rewards will show when you highlight something
so inavded and level should be the quickest then?
Yeah
i think bounties might also give some points?
Rewards will show spec points if they give
Exodus gloves any good? smoke bomb ability seems meh
do i need to equip the weapon from the tree to get the points or is having it in my back pack ok aswell?
It just needs to be your active spec
Use of launcher makes no difference
surprisingly decent, since you go out of combat your armor regenerate and lets you reposition
so it serves like a second wind
wait the smoke counts as out of combat? damn
where is the final main mission in divison 2
since it's gloves that means it wont be fighting for talent slot like chest and backpack
might wanna be more specific there
the current season mission which is the last in terms of contente added and plot got released yesterday if you are done with the season
wait since im killing hunters will they despawn if the smoke pops?
i dont think so
cant comment on puzzle hunters honestly
so just assuming they de-aggro for couple of seconds
im doing the story missions
are you level 40?
yea im going after the hidden ones
Legit concern
Idk either
not the expansion
i can respawn a puzzle hunter right? wanna test the exodus smoke on them
May need to wait in game day/night cycle or possibly daily reset. But should be able to respawn
can i not complete any journey obj in the range anymore?
nope
patched it this season like a few days after this season started i think?
one week
Guys, don't equip the exotic skin on the scorpion, as it has bugs and can crash the game.
wait you can get two named from one cache?
yeah
What do dark zones offer exactly? Exclusive gear that you can only get there?
basically
Pvp mainly
Ah okay, how do I know if I pick up an item that’s DZ exclusive? I’m new and I’m trying to fart around with builds but I’m not sure what I’m looking for
Other than a miracle raid drop the dz named exclusive can be gotten in named/legacy caches
they dont tell you unless you wiki them
Damn, so there there really isn’t any gain beyond just the thrill of PvP. That stinks.
does raid and incursion exotics drop in open world now?
No
thanks
Is the birdies quick fix bag talent bugged?
good morning all, i bought the base game some years ago and now i wonder if there will be a way to upgrade to the new gold orultimate edition? or just buy the delc separatley?
if you buy the ultimate/gold edition should provide you with everything included BFB
yes, thank you for your answer, but i already own the base game?
I remember people mentioning contractor gloves.. worth keeping these?
any reason why not? probably 5-6 optimizations and be maxed out maybe?
is DTA inherent drop on Contractor Gloves? or it's just a random thing on these attributes? since it's named item?
nope, each contractors will have that, each fox's prayer will give you Damage to Targets out of cover and each hollowman give's damage to health
extremely long long time ago, those 3 pieces was a must on every build but they nerfed hollowman so now it's just the contractors and fox's
yeah I've seen them mentioned in builds quite a bit
I don't think there's any upgrade packs
Have to buy the DLC separately or get a bundle
Foxes and contractors are good on most setups but overrated imo
Exotic Scorpio skin
where is the 3rd activity?
||Eliminate enemies with Seeker Mines in East Mall||
@graceful path The Activities for a particular scout number are always within the same zone as each other.
are the raids set higher or lower then heroic?
from what I've been told it's between Challenging and Heroic
it's a bit higher than heroic, and it's not including mechanics
There are also some comms that can be found in the DZ.
does invaded dz have better loot?
I scrap most of the pickups. The only difference I have found, it could be just me being daft, but it seems to have more vicious NPCs and a few more PVP types.
Whats the fastest way to farm shd levels?
Projects, Priority missions and high level CPs/convoys. Long missions seem to have a good XP rate also.
Check what the rewards are for doing missions and you will see which are worth it.
public executions on challenging with directives
there are some other ways, but they involve having a 2nd account or events to be active
can i skip the week manhunt grind and go straight to the new misson if someone inv me ?
No, iirc you will be bounced back to the mission starting zone. I've tried this with Parnell in the past.
lame
It's doable to finish pretty quick though, especially since all the objectives are known now.
no southwest bounty
Do a hostage rescue in southwest, or pb ex
whaaat no, you can
just pulled some through master yesterday, you get the backpack etc.
may needs to be started first by a eligible person and than the other can join
Yeah, I was grouped with one who was eligible back then. He proceeded fine, I was bounced back to the start
so isit yes or no
yea dunno, maybe they changed it or it was something else
or the person yesterday lied to us 😄 can't test it right now
I mean, just try it out, you will find out pretty quick I guess
i guess
yeah thanks, seems like the only way is to just buy the DLCs separately
Anyone still getting 999 exotic components from the new event cache?
I haven't for a while
I tried it yesterday and I got bounced back
However, I started the scout missions and already on scout 10 so you can breeze through them quickly
Is there a way to show Gear Mods in a list. i.e. all Crit damage, crit chance etc etc as they are all mixed up and difficult to see which I can delete to save space?
Yes, you can sort them, there is an option for it.
I've tried all the 'X' options, but they are always mixed up.
When you go to apply a gear mod you can filter by type, not sure if you can mark as junk from that menu though
How daft that you cannot do it in the inventory.
Ahh I see, you want to sort them by attribute, that's not possible, sadly.
Thank you guys. What a shame that is not possible, makes deleting them rather more difficult than necessary.
I can use Filter options to see which I want to delete, then go back and hunt for them in the long list. Hey ho.
Yeah the whole mod system (especially skill mods) is due a revamp.
It's a good idea to just try and keep on top of them, don't keep more than 3 of the useful ones (except maybe pfe), and don't keep any of the useless ones. Whenever you get a new one, either immediately mark as junk or swap it in if it's better than an existing one
You make it sound like I know what the heck I am doing. Thank you, but I really don't. lool
i am at level 10 rn why it doesnt count?? :<
I've seen another person with this issue. Might have to log out and back in to fix. Might have to start again though. Do one floor and see if it says 1/15
it still says 0-- i ll try to start from 0 again later and i ll check
can anyone verify if having max shd cal mats is how to get 999 exotic components?
i see their emergency pass fix was too late i didnt know it was a bug u buy 1 level and it gives u 10 no wo-nder im level 180
It wasn't about a bug, it was to save face about becoming pay to win
oh i see wonder did they know about that bug also
don't think so, tried that on a char without shared mats, but also 999 shd and it didn't work, so it seems related to something else
do w eknow something about the div 3?
in trello "Inconsistent Hunter Mask rewards in groups"
It's mentioned, does it mean getting a wolf mask at random is a bug?
It was bugged that the last person who killed the hunters was the only one to get the mask
Oh, my...
I think I caught 4 hunters 6 times today, but I didn't get a wolf mask. I can't believe it was a bug
We know it's early in development, but that's all
oh okidokie, i wish it will befocused in europe this time, but tbh dunno if the division is in europe too or only USA, not really following the story :<
only US
It's a US agency thing based on a US presidential directive
Longshot but I want a seasons system in the next one. We've seen winter, we've seen summer, we are gonna see fall... seasons would be amazing
oh ok so maybe The div 4 or 5, after have made US free time to save the world i guess ahah
am i repeatedly messing up simple addition here? it looks to me like if you buy this outfit piece by piece its 1,955 credits. if you buy the bundle its 2084
theres a weapon skin below the backpack
ohh i missed that
do dz landmarks grant season xp?
Should I recalibrate to run +15% shotgun damage OR just replace +7% crit damage with +8% crit chance? My shotgun in my build currently has 44% crit chance and 74% crit damage
Has the 800+ Exotic recalibration bug been fixed? I have now completed two 'stretch' caches and once again only received 1 Exotic Recal.
Not gonna cry as I was awarded a Bullet King whilst doing a Priority Mission. YEEHAW!
hello! my friend has a problem: he reached level 40 and raised up the difficulty adding some directives, he didnt add the "scavenged skills", but he does drop and need the "skill parts" from that directive for use skills.. is it a bug or what? (he already tried to restart the game, change difficulty again atc)
special ammo for some reason is also activating scavanged skills due a bug
ooooh okok thank a lot yeah we were playing with special ammo on
