[harsh hemlock]

did it at least!!!!

[acoustic meteor]

Is there a website with diff builds or im just searching until i git smth thats to my taste

[pseudo tundra]

there's a channel with pins just about builds #td2-build-advice

[winter needle]

Recal your crit. Cause you can optimize the other two.

[harsh hemlock]

what are those things?

[nimble spruce]

comms from a previous season

[modest olive]

has anyone here actually got an eb from these new caches

[nimble spruce]

yeah someone reported getting one the other day

[wispy merlin]

0.5% chance is bigger than we think

[harsh hemlock]

so are they useless rn?

[nimble spruce]

they're just lore, they never had any use other than to give the story some more flavour

[harsh hemlock]

oh okidokie ty for the info

[next inlet]

How do you get the harvest pistol?

[tiny stump]

The loot goblin. Might have to be during a holiday event though, I'm not sure

[next inlet]

Is there a way to farm them? I know that there’s a chance for them to spawn in the summit

[modest olive]

does anyone know if there is a drop rate chart for named dz exlusive items i can find

[pseudo tundra]

i dont think people have drop rate for that

[inner tendon]

@modest olive It's literally just "any named item" each time you open the Cache.
So I mean, if you wanna work that out, count up how many Named Items drop in them, and it's 1/however many is left.

tl;dr There's no RNG protection in place.

[modest olive]

ah i see ty

[narrow kraken]

ty

[heady veldt]

@wispy merlin said it's heroic or a bit above it.. so I would trust him more.. he's a veteran .. I was just going by what some folks told me.

[narrow kraken]

just aslong as its not like legendary 😭

[wispy merlin]

nah it's nowhere near as hard

[heady veldt]

nah no way.. raids are usually meant to be playable by a large group of players so they won't make it super hard either way.. at least from my experience overall in games with raids.

[foggy field]

Anyone find a better way tp grind season xp besides prioty objective strong holds?

[harsh hemlock]

the journey gives a lot of xp

[foggy field]

Already cleared all that. I'm trying to get brooklyn cahces

[harsh hemlock]

whats that 🤔

anyway yeah the mission with 8 people i saw that gives a lot of xp too

the countdown

[foggy field]

after ytou clear the first 100 they added an extra 10 levels you can repeat. 5 of them give brooklyn caches that have a chance to drop raid/incursion exotics

[harsh hemlock]

oooh cool cool

[tiny stump]

pretty cool. not all that different really

[nimble spruce]

don't save it in a loadout, it's bugged and will crash your game

[tiny stump]

oh ok thanks

shit i saved it in a loadout and crashed my game. why didnt i listen

[queen storm]

Is farming the DZ landmarks for field recon calibration optimal?

[next perch]

Seeing chances of eb and other raid exotics drop in caches
Are these for all players regardless if you paid for anything?
I see Brooklyn event but it's unmarked.

[nimble spruce]

yes, rewards are the same regardless of whether you bought the season pass or not

[next perch]

Then I will keep grinding 👍

[noble snow]

its .5% for EB? do you know the chances for the exodus gloves cus thats all i seem to be getting

[wispy merlin]

it's not in the table

[foggy field]

It's 10%

[pseudo tundra]

i got 3 oxepecker so far

just want a ravenous

last one missing

[runic rapids]

I believe I've had four or five exodus gloves and that's it lol

[amber snow]

Anyone still getting 999 exotic components? Idk if it was also patched this morning

[junior sequoia]

How?? People told me that it is not available in the loot pool.

[runic rapids]

It's in the notes about it?

I can't tell if you're being facetious lol

[junior sequoia]

You mean the Brooklyn caches?

[runic rapids]

Yeah

[junior sequoia]

I thought it was just the raid exotics since I didn't hear someone mentioning the non-raid exotics that aren't in the loot pool.

[brazen vine]

This is what ppl thought at first, but it's the Brooklyn Caches that you want

Tho they could be in both

[soft patio]

why is main missions on 95% completion yet all the main missions are done 🙏

[wild harness]

I want to post an error, where should I go?

[pseudo tundra]

you want to talk to support?

[tribal crescent]

hello, is there a list for Priority Objectives?
I

that shows all possible 'Activity'

[dull marlin]

Im playing Division 2 on PC, while also chatting with friends on discord. Does anyone reccomend a good push to talk button on the controller? I cant seem to find one, or am I missing something?

[next perch]

How does conflict calculate a kill?
The person that downs the player or the person that kills the player?

[heady veldt]

I got Adrestia.. what do I do with it again? Just dismantle?

[slim elk]

yes

[heady veldt]

ty

[wild harness]

Bug report.

[pseudo tundra]

#rules has a link to ubi support site and discord for that

[tiny stump]

annoying. i am gonna try it tho cuz i hate scorpio reloads

[wild harness]

Oh, actually, I wanted to ask when the stock in this picture will be repaired.

[steady schooner]

I can’t play without this settings set to off

[harsh hemlock]

Wait can we hide weapons?

That s actually very good ahaha

The bag look very messy with the special weapon tbh

Dunno about intelligent but yeah i ll check by myself when im at home! Tyty for the info tho!

[half karma]

are there any good missions or activities to try and farm Journey 7 ? I've just mainly got the Momentum challenges but what gives me good Momentum?

[nimble spruce]

Headshot kills, using spotter drone with the reaper scan modifier

[odd condor]

landing a lot of critical hits also helps

[half karma]

Yeah I'm running a determind hotshot build mostly, i'll put on the spotter drone and reaper scan though

[radiant knot]

For keeping momentum and killing 8, I did DUA on legendary solo with a striker crit build as the fights last longer so more chance to build momentum especially with the crit giving you momentum mod

[nimble spruce]

You can always just use overdrive to jump you straight to momentum tier 5 when you've got 8 enemies there to kill

For the melee one, just throw on claws out and lady death and run a short mission on Normal difficulty, punch everyone to death

And for the 'use all three active modifiers' one you can literally just sit in a quiet corner and spam them on cooldown, a bit boring but doesn't take too long

[half karma]

what's your build for this? Is it just all red crit striker? I get rolled by the mini tanks when trying to start DUA on Legendary

[nimble spruce]

In most content you can get by perfectly well with full red dps, and it's usually faster once you get the hang of using cover / line of sight to mitigate incoming damage.
A bit of regen, eg from memento, can be nice if you want to be a bit more casual about your play, especially solo.

[radiant knot]

Momento backpack, Ceska chest with obliterate, St Elmo's AR, shield and revive hive, once you get it rolling, both Strikers and the momentum RoF boost you can burn down most stuff pretty quickly in my experience

[nimble spruce]

Actual armour regen stats that aren't % based are too low to be any real use at all

[half karma]

Might have to try it a few times, I have all those pieces pre sure

[nimble spruce]

Let the minitanks get out in the open then break their tracks, the engineer will come to fix them and be a sitting duck

Also remember your shield is bullet proof (but not explosion proof) when you're at max momentum, which can be extremely helpful

[half karma]

what specialization should I run? I think i've just got Technician on for it

[nimble spruce]

For striker, gunner is usually preferred. Increased rate of fire, aok, ammo regen...

[dull marlin]

I just prefer it honestly.

[wispy shoal]

Does chill out still drop from the hoarder?

[rain sigil]

yes

[wispy shoal]

Sick

[modest loom]

good mask?

[nimble spruce]

Yes, a top choice in many crit builds

[modest loom]

😮 really? 😄

[tulip fiber]

Dogface was better, imo😁

[silver ingot]

in what chat can i ask someone for help?

with a mission

[nimble spruce]

Depends on the question, use the lfg channels if you want someone to join you ingame

[wispy shoal]

If it's mechanic based then this one

[nimble spruce]

Eg #lfg-pc in your case

[silver ingot]

it's this mission if it makes the situation better or whatever yk

[nimble spruce]

Either call for backup ingame (shd tab of the map menu) or ask in #lfg-pc

[silver ingot]

alright thank you

[harsh hemlock]

uhmmmmmmmm ahahahha i cant truly find it aaaaa and about all the other things u said can u help me too? too many options make my brain explode ahah

[next inlet]

For the coyotes mask, can someone answer these few questions in order?

1. Do the stacks of critical chance stack? Like if me and a friend has the mask on and we both try to get the buff for 25% chc, does it turn to 50%? Same with the first two 0-15m and 15-25m?

2. If it doesn’t stack, can people still get all three of the buffs at once if there’s 3 people with the mask and all 3 hit enemies from the necessary 3 buff, doesn’t everyone in the squad get all 3 of those buffs?

[pseudo tundra]

you cna have one of each buff active, so it's possible to get different buffs active at the same time if multiple people are running the mask

[spring moss]

hey guys which ones better for reducing spray on vector?

[amber snow]

anyone who got the 999 exotic components bug, did u do the mule merge materials thing to go over the material cap?

[pseudo tundra]

turmoil kneepads is just an even 50/50 damage split between two targets right?

[half karma]

does maxing out the proficiency of different weapons raise my Expertise rank by 1 for each maxed out Proficiency Rank?

[pseudo tundra]

you need X amount of proficiency points for each expertise level

i need 43 more points, that could be either maxing you 4 items from 0-10 and another to 3, or 43 differente items by 1 level

[half karma]

ah okay so 1 gun maxed profiency doesn't = 1 whole expertise rank

[pseudo tundra]

nope

amount per level also varies

it actually starts decreasing after a while

[half karma]

sad, guess i'm still just scraping junk and having guns on the side

[half karma]

oh really? that's good then

I find i'm running out of optimization materials. what are the best methods for farming that type of stuff? I think for the first like 12 levels I mainly need Steel and Titanium

[pseudo tundra]

crafting

[half karma]

crafting uses them tho doesn't it?

[amber snow]

@pseudo tundra there's a scammer

[spring moss]

anyone know about this one?

nvm found it out ty

[bold tiger]

which one is it if one does do that?
i always think maybe it's the accuracy?

[steady schooner]

If your bullets don’t go where you pointing then use accuracy if your weapon kicking like a horse then use stability

[lime crypt]

vector needs accuracy

[pseudo tundra]

accuracy is spread/bloom

[rapid bloom]

||can i ask what happen to that doctor kelso ninja throw to the neck?||

[nimble spruce]

#division-universe message

(division universe is the lore channel)

[bold tiger]

i'd even say if you're trying to fix both as much handling as possible (> <)

[jaunty tide]

is priority objectives rewards shared between other team mates?

[pulsar nebula]

Guyss, I just accidentally deleted my character, what should I do to get it back?

[nimble spruce]

you need to open a ticket with ubisoft support (link at the top of the #rules channel), but it will likely take days or even weeks for them to resolve.

[harsh hemlock]

following what the_Kettle said, i think it s the best to jsut start a new char tbh

[spring moss]

idk if thats correct or not but i went with stability

then again vector doesnt really kick so should probably change to accuracy 😆

[glacial vector]

so with the ninjabike pack can you do two gear sets at once?

[bold tiger]

no

[wispy merlin]

you can't get 2 4p talents at once no

[bold tiger]

i gearset and full 3 pc brandset

[glacial vector]

ah but still works with named item's gear brands?

[nimble spruce]

Yes

Still not worth it in most cases though

[wispy merlin]

yeah losing out on an actual backpack talent hurts pve a lot

[bold tiger]

nods most people will tell you "you're missing backpack talent" which can be pretty powerful in some builds

[near ridge]

i wana fit new backpack on this build so should i just swap one of the shiny monkey piece and call it a day ?

[pearl pasture]

Would want another f.i piece too to keep the set bonus. So maybe 4 f.i, birdies and then either a haste or repair brand (hana u, alps, brazos.)

[near ridge]

so maybe picaro and then swap gloves kneepads for g.i

[pearl pasture]

Yeah that would do it!

[near ridge]

yea just gotta from both bc picaro i have on rn is for my chatterbox build

oh and the backpack hive thing only works on reviver correct ?

[pearl pasture]

I believe so, haven't used it myself.

[bold tiger]

currently bugged that way for the insta revive

[pearl pasture]

Well hive and manual revives i guess

[near ridge]

so if im getting rid of healer hive is chemlauncher 2nd best healing tool ?

[bold tiger]

yeah the manual and revive speed should be increased
but manual still goes the whole length as if you don't have the birdie

[near ridge]

oh that sucks

[bold tiger]

standard healer build is 4 FI, BTSU Gloves and SetUp backpack set to skill teir with skill haste and repair and utilizing the scorpio buff on top

[pearl pasture]

Yeah chem would be best. Maybe mender seeker if you wanna be lazy.

[warm pawn]

should i buy wony?

[stuck frigate]

If you are looking for a great representation of Manhattan, some great extra storyline missions, more to discover, more to do, then yes, go for it. I'd say for the full Division experience, there is no doubt you gotta have it.

[bold tiger]

if you can spare it go the ultimate route and hopefully get BFB when it releases

[pearl pasture]

NY is also one of my favourite areas to open world explore. Super gloomy at night and is just a great vibe. Great nostalgia too.

[bold tiger]

i tire of that one control point. like can't they allow us to change the track on it please?

[pearl pasture]

Also good for that though. If you get bored of DC

[stuck frigate]

To be really honest I like Manhattan more compared to DC but i'm a sucker for NYC since Division 1

All extra content is welcome

Woops this is the ask channel 🤐

[bold tiger]

it kind of does belong here (> <)

[glacial vector]

Devil's Due good for keeping armor up when you lack armor on kill?

[wispy merlin]

no, you'd rather use a good backpack talent and have armor on kill

[glacial vector]

ah

[acoustic meteor]

Got st elmo with perfect crit chance and health dmg roll but low roll(like 40%) on AR dmg, should i reroll?

[bold tiger]

99.999999999% prefer it with Damage to Targets out of Cover honestly, but it's upto you and how your build your going with it on

[glacial vector]

why isnt there a prestige version of the season silver patch?

[hollow girder]

green gear only aviable through raids?

i have no idea what gear sets is associated whit raids, i only saw some green gear piece on some people or in the spreadsheet tbh haha

where is countdown on the map?

is it pve or pvp mode?

ok

oh should i skip this then for now and do the raids and get it there the green gear?

i see

you want to tag along and doit whit me countdown?

does this game has crossplay btw?

😦

how come it dosnt have crossplay did they dev sayed the engine is to old or smth?

i´ll try my best haha

i hit lv 40 for the first time aswell so im hyped for late game now

URA!!!!

[next inlet]

Does the loot goblin method even work still to get festive items? I’ve been trying for half an hour and not a single festive item has spawned

[bold tiger]

i haven't tried hunting him in a long while so no clue honestly

[rugged stratus]

They usually turn seasonal drops on and off. There was an extra long time the seasonals were available, but if not seeing anything drop it may have been patched shut

[next inlet]

Damn… thanks

[ember bison]

Hey yall, I am running a striker build based around crit damage, and I have been wondering if on my weapon I should aim for crit damage or DMG to target out of cover.

[wispy merlin]

the latter

[ember bison]

aight thank you

[inner tendon]

DTOOC is the best choice on pretty much every gun that can have it.

it's at the point where the devs have spoken about it, and it's defintiely getting changed some time in the future.

tl;dr use it whilst you can.

[junior sequoia]

Well, the game lore timeline took only a few days between the white house assault and the present, so I won't be surprised that the jtf doesn't know where to put it

[inner tendon]

@junior sequoia ||Schaeffer was in a coma for 2 months, as stated in the Manhunt finale||

I know, I wasn't expecting exact times either

[ember bison]

Is there a bonus to using the tinkering station or can I just do it from anywhere?

[inner tendon]

Anywhere is fine, no benefit.

[ember bison]

Thank you

[junior sequoia]

||The white house assault was October 15th, the present is somewhen after october 27th. That's why I said few days instead of two months, (which is when Schaffer went in a coma, not when BT tried to take him back)||

[heady veldt]

@bold tiger what was the setup on Kard we talked about again, in regards to another reviver charge?

[bold tiger]

just kard custom in hand to get a charge on revive hive

[heady veldt]

that's a different KARD.. I have KARD 45?

but no skill +1 on it.. so I'm guessing different gun?

[inner tendon]

It's just a named version of that gun, it's the same thing, but with a special "thing" on it, like all Named Items.

[heady veldt]

ah

thx

[inner tendon]

I guess that depends on your definition of a few days.

[heady veldt]

I must have dismantled a lot of them.. I have to keep an eye open.

[inner tendon]

It's "dz locked", but it's not as useful as you think.
Since it only works if you are physically holding it in your hand.

[heady veldt]

the point of our convo earlier is that I'm trying to get an additional charge on reviver so I can throw to pick up downed folks playing with me without losing my own revive.

[inner tendon]

That's what happens when you post random spam in #ask-td2-community
@heady veldt I don't tend to read through all of chat to get context, but the number of times daily someone asks about the TDI Kard, only to be dssapointed in that it isn't always on, makes for a safer bet to mention it.

[heady veldt]

nah I get it.. was just giving you context in the convo.. all good

[ember bison]

Damage to target out of cover, does that only mean enemies not attached to cover or also enemies shooting and standing up from cover

[inner tendon]

As long as they aren't in the "taking cover" animation, like how you can go into cover, then it'll work on them.

[ember bison]

ok ty

[inner tendon]

So yes, it works on all Hounds and Heavies too. Very useful.

[glacial vector]

Backfire any good or is that bleed dmg too much?

[inner tendon]

You can very easily negate the bleed with Hazard Protection, Backfire itself was recently buffed quite a lot actually.

[glacial vector]

oh cool

[inner tendon]

Even before the buffs it was still a personal favourite of mine. Just play to its strengths and you'll get a kick out of it.

[glacial vector]

also that thing looks very painful to hold

dear god the amount of barbed wire

[heady veldt]

it's one of my favorite guns.. pure pure pure damage.. insanity.. however you do need to work around that bleed.. if you can put up with the bleed animation and disorientation for a second you can run something like bloodsucker or high armor per kill % to mitigate it.. but usually hazard protection and bleed resistance on mods is the way to go.. you can get to 90-100% bleed resistance which completely negates the effect.. you really don't lose a lot of damage as Backfire has TONS of CHC so you can replace the CHC on gear with hazard protection

usually what I run on my Backfire build is 1 piece Cavalier, Ninja Backpack, with Ceska piece and Striker.. bleed resistance mods and hazard protection on a couple of pieece of gear..this gets you closer or on point with 90%+ bleed resistance

hunter's fury is great with it too.. maybe better choice than Striker since it gives you a lot more tankiness and armor per kill as well

that 200% crit damage is STRONG.

I would say in practice, playing with Backfire for a while now.. I can tell you that at around 60-70% bleed resistance it's still ok.. you only get red screen for like less than a second.. not enough to really mess with you or to do damage to you.. so keep that in mind as well

[inner tendon]

and now you know why its bleed on reload 🙂

[glacial vector]

so does Backfire have that much crit that its actually good to use?

[slim elk]

backfire backfires but it's good

[glacial vector]

cause i did also notice it can empty a mag in under 5s

[heady veldt]

200% + conservatively if you have like 100-120% CHD normally that's 320% CHD.. that's insane multiplier

[inner tendon]

Backfire Talent:

Dealing damage to enemies adds a stack of 1% Critical Hit Damage. Stacks last for 10s and are capped to 200
On Reload, applies a 10s bleed to yourself which deals 0.5% armor damage per stack"```

[glacial vector]

yea i read it but i did not know how high it could stack crit

[inner tendon]

"capped at 200"

[slim elk]

just try it

[heady veldt]

I was hitting between 1.4-1.6m crits with it at it's rate of fire it's insane damage

it's the type of gun that's acquired taste I would say.. I love it.. a lot of people hate it for that bleed.. they would rather have different type of build than worry about bleed protection

[inner tendon]

Before the recent buffs, there were approximately 2 fans of it in this server.
@true siren and myself.

[glacial vector]

defo seems like you'd need to stack some critical chance as well

[slim elk]

I run backfire without bleed res or hazpro and I just don't feel the bleed status that much

[heady veldt]

the gun itself comes with huge amount of CHC.. you will be maxed out or easily 50%+

[heady veldt]

true.. with enough armor aside from being annoying not a big issue

[ember bison]

How can I find groups for Soosevelt island Kelso master mission?

[inner tendon]

@ember bison #lfg-pc

[ember bison]

ty

[true siren]

oh hey thats me, i wrote the old guide on it but i removed it since the games changed and it wasnt really worth it at the time

[inner tendon]

With the new buffs, I feel like it's time for a return of the Queen.

[glacial vector]

wait hold on my brain just loaded, you got a 93k dmg gun to hit 1.5 MIL CRITS?

[bold tiger]

? tried to follow what you replied to but still not sure what you mean?

oh just the exotic smg backfire?

[slim elk]

yea

[slim elk]

crits are pretty high

[bold tiger]

yeah, think i was tempted to put it on my 3pc chc/chd build and was like oh right diminishing returns

[glacial vector]

foundry bulwark work with Backfire since it triggers on dmg?

[heady veldt]

and it's a glorious return indeed.

[heady veldt]

my preferred is definitely hunter's fury with it.. because you will CC all enemies around you within 15 meters (that's a lot) so they won't even shoot you and by that time, it's game over. Hunter's Fury also gives you tons of armor on kill too and health. So it's a win win..

it's one of those guns and setups that's full on run and gun.. you go in blasting, everything is CC-ed.. wipe out the level. move on.

[glacial vector]

damn i got no bleed or hazard armor mods, need to make some

tf is the differnce between protcol and system? their bonuses dont seem different. is one defensive and the other offensive?

nvm i see a system and protocol with crit dmg

wtf why are they labeled differently

[wispy merlin]

legacy system, dw about it

[glacial vector]

[heady veldt]

Prio objectives strongholds and missions

[heady veldt]

I wrote info about how damage is calculated based on my game and community research. Might be helpful #ask-td2-community message

[rugged stratus]

Use riot foam chem, then throw a regular nade if you're poor at nade placement .. theyll wait for it

anyone have a check point for summit floor ten legendary?

Anyone know if repair skill affects the refactor set

is there a way to revert the world to the state it was in when the black tusk attacket for the first time?, I loved the chaos and the constant changing of territory

[heady veldt]

lol some of the stretch goals rewards are just OP..

[harsh hemlock]

hello, i just found some mods on Nexus Mods that does a reshade of the game, i guess to fix the illumination, are mods safe to use for the online?

[pseudo tundra]

Wouldnt reccomend using them

[glacial vector]

most anti-cheats flag reshade as cheat software because it hooks into the game exe

i cant remember which anticheats but they added a exemption to reshade

it was Easy Anti-Cheat

hey wait doesnt div2 use EAC?

[harsh hemlock]

dunno lol

it would be cool if we could use some reshade mod

the illumination is ehw most of the time

:<

[wraith flare]

yes

[glacial vector]

then im guessing the dev team flagged reshade? its whitelisted by EAC last i checked

[wraith flare]

I wouldn't recommend using them but I did try it out years ago and I had no issues

[glacial vector]

so @harsh hemlock it seems like the anti-cheat doesnt care about reshade but someone else might. tldr: use at own risk

im not gonna use it cause this game already maxes my cpu, dunno what reshade would do

[harsh hemlock]

what do you think will happen if EAC will see it as a cheat? like get banned from the game?

[glacial vector]

idk, it shouldnt tho cause its on EAC's whitelist (essentially allowed to run programs)

damn Vanguard anti-cheat just bans you

dis might be old list tho

[wraith flare]

I doubt it'd instant ban you even if it did ban you at all in the first place

[glacial vector]

damn you can do a custom crosshair with reshade? when did that get figured out

i do understand why you wanna @harsh hemlock cause i installed reshade for Subnautica and it looks beautiful

gunner's banshee any good?

[pseudo tundra]

Pretty useful

A stun that ignores cover

Hold it to increase range

[bold tiger]

@grizzled apex

[glacial vector]

what is the custom gold engraved, red wrapped gun is that on your pack

[bold tiger]

a gun unobtainable for now

[glacial vector]

exotic im guessing?

[bold tiger]

all exotics are obtainable though

[slim elk]

Lexington with the Golden Skin

[glacial vector]

ah

where tf did the skin come from then

[slim elk]

or is it bronze?

[slim elk]

They gave 3 Skins with the weapon if you played before December 2024

[slim elk]

nailed it

[glacial vector]

ah

and i thought bullet king was fancy

[bold tiger]

don't like bronze color

says silver, but i see platinum?

[slim elk]

silver is good looking

[glacial vector]

bronze just looks like rose gold and yea it looks like a bluish silver

[slim elk]

I have mine red so it goes with a Blood theme

[rugged stratus]

zap skin looks much better on it

[bold tiger]

not deadpool theme?

[slim elk]

that's a good guess but I didn't think of anything special lol

[bold tiger]

from not clicking on picture i saw red outfit so was thinking deadpool, then i click on picture saw mostly black and was like ah nm

[slim elk]

I just went "I want my striker's build to be red,Hotshot to be blue, Mortar as Yellow, Oxy as Purple..." and goes for every loadout I saved

Healer as green

[heady veldt]

does Skill Repair affect Shield regeneration?

[heady veldt]

I like the black/red look..

[rugged stratus]

no but it affects artificer shield repair it its equipped

[shut pewter]

alright so i just hit level 30 and the game just EXPLODED with new content and things to figure out and im not even CLOSE to finishing the clearing of all the random junk on the map

can i get some advice about where to focus or what i should know about some mechanic i just unlocked?

for example. i havent even touched the dark zone yet. is that normal?

[rugged stratus]

7200 hrs and i have 2 dz undiscovered

[shut pewter]

from the sounds of it its not an area thats "required" to do stuff then. good to hear. pvp is meh for me

[rugged stratus]

first step i think is farming a build or 2 since you reached endgame. #td2-build-advice has a pinned spreadsheet with a lot of build guides that are easy to follow. i would suggest, striker, eclipse protocol fire, and probably turret/drone to start. all are easy to farm and use

[shut pewter]

oh ive reached the build meta part of the game eh?

[rugged stratus]

yeah pvp is really just if you like that sort of playstyle. everything is farmable outside the dz even if some items are DZ exclusives

[rugged stratus]

well, yourte at a point withere the build is going to make a difference if you want to push into higher difficulties

striker is like the do all dps

[shut pewter]

im a very casual player. i probably wont be doing stuff like raids or whatever

[rugged stratus]

no worries

[shut pewter]

i have little time to play games these days and lots of games to play so ill probably finish the "story" or reach a level cap or whatever and move on so i probably wont be needing a super endgame build or whatever yknow?

i was a bit surprised by the random jump in numbers though. went from having guns with like a max of 10k a shot to guns with 50-100k a shot in like 2 levels

[slim elk]

1mil+ per shot with the right build will blow your mind once you reach lvl40

[urban hamlet]

What are the T5 MUST HAVE exotics in this game, like in terms of high utility or just strength thatd you guys would recommend someone “chase” first

[slim elk]

Coyote's
Memento
Iron Lung/Bluescreen maybe
Backfire
St. Elmo's/Scorpio

I'd say those are my top 5

[rugged stratus]

coyote, memento, vile, elmo, scorpio

[slim elk]

I have never used vile but I keep one

[rugged stratus]

thats 7 🤓

[slim elk]

hey I used slashes

[urban hamlet]

Seems like i really really need another St Elmos then

[slim elk]

wdym another?

[urban hamlet]

Game gave me on in the lvl 30 cache and i never found another since

[rugged stratus]

you need 3 more, one for each alt

[urban hamlet]

Shit was so good i couldnt take it off till level 34 lmfao

[slim elk]

and 3 mortar builds and 3 nego builds and 3 hotshot builds and 3 striker's and 3 healers

and and and

[rugged stratus]

you would have a lot more fun then ... no vile means no fire build , and no fire makes any agent a sad agent

[slim elk]

doomz = sad agent

[rugged stratus]

i already know. get vile in your life, get mortar in your life , and you will bask in his glory

[glacial vector]

is David's nemesis part guranteed? or do i gotta farm him

[rugged stratus]

?

[ember bison]

Any advice to legendary Capitol building, I just tried it with 4 people, all of the other players with over 5k shd and we still failed, is this mission even humanly possible?

[bold tiger]

only failed once?

[ember bison]

multiple times

[bold tiger]

same place? different places?

[ember bison]

diffierent but it was a back and forward, sometimes we got further and sometimes we died earlier, but there was just one point it we just could not get any further

that still being at the start

[bold tiger]

you 4 learning the spawns?

[ember bison]

Ive realized the spawns, but that did not help much since we could not even get close enough to utilize that knowledge XD

[glacial vector]

the nemesis barrel part from the invaded capitol building

[bold tiger]

are you 4 on comms with each other?
did you call out when the spawns are coming and where they're coming from?

[ember bison]

nah randoms

and I tried

[bold tiger]

maybe it could've been their first time going into it?

[glacial vector]

whats the exotic rifle that has two mags and a scope?

[rugged stratus]

so a funny thing just happened... i just had an entire season loop clear with 1 mission prio ... this common or nah? ill take it regardless

[glacial vector]

ah, wtf is that perk

[rugged stratus]

ss cause i knew that was coming 😎

[glacial vector]

a weapon based around shoulder swapping

like wat

i wonder how many players even know there is a should swap button

[bold tiger]

i had that happen once. finish priority objective and boom i got to loop 10 and started over again was like wait what?!

see, nemesis looks great on the wall

does the wall in NY show different exotics?

ah it's different

[glacial vector]

exotics that came with the WoNY update?

cause i see bullet king and backfire

[bold tiger]

@lament bison as you can see i upgraded my regulus to 18
the harvest headshot is higher by 5%

yeah, 18 and 18 regulus still higher

[lament bison]

Yeah, I have a exp 20 harvest. I can only deal 18m with HFHH

Plus no AoE talent 🥲

[bold tiger]

what all did you try?

hmm, 12 million with achilles pulse and sledgehammer?

i was close @lament bison

[heady veldt]

I'm curious why would this not allow me to equip it on Reviver Hive? Seems like a proper mod

[bold tiger]

no clue, it should?

[heady veldt]

probably bugged.. i'll try to log out - update: yup it was bugged, logging out and back in fixed it

[empty moth]

is this done? do i move on to the next objectives?

[heady veldt]

not yet.. it needs to pop on your screen that it's finished.. there is someone still alive

[empty moth]

oh i need to secure area

[heady veldt]

yah.. it will tell you bounty complete

[empty moth]

i see

[lament bison]

How do i kick someone mid mission?

[slim elk]

Social Panel

[bold tiger]

if on pc esc, click social panel (edited), click on them and there should be a kick from party if you're the party leader

[lament bison]

I cant theres no option

Just block, report etc

[slim elk]

are you party leader?

[lament bison]

Yes

[slim elk]

weird, only option then is you leaving him

[lament bison]

Dude is trolling at last area in legendary capitol

[inner tendon]

Just leave and move on, this is the risk you take with playing online with others.

[bold tiger]

make a not of thier names so if you see them again you can leave again

[inner tendon]

It's been a while since I've done it, can you not block them on ubi-connect itself?

[slim elk]

@grizzled apex

[grizzled apex]

wait they removed that? that wa the main draw of DCG

that wasnt a side effect,

that was the perk

[lament bison]

Yeah i blocked him. Thing is I was helping some new guys. We all died and the shd 1k guy just sat in the tent for 10min or so.

[rugged stratus]

was he trolling or trying to stay alive? pretty risky to revive while actively being flanked

[inner tendon]

The tent is also an old meta strat, they might've assumed it was still valid.

[rugged stratus]

and dont bother noting the shd, its definitely not a skill indicator you see 20k agents not know wtf is going or how yo build proper a lot of times

-# nice, gold star for local

[inner tendon]

@shut bloom You're looking for #division-universe

[shut bloom]

❤️

[buoyant escarp]

Did they finalize pts And will there be any gun with higher dps than ourboros confrimed?/ tested

[buoyant escarp]

How do I kill chingas on scout 8 please?

[acoustic meteor]

Quick question. If you good at hitting Headshots consistenty isnt a full on headshot dmg build better than crit one

[slim elk]

||Set JTC Captain Lewis Manhunt on Challenging, first encounter has a guaranteed chunga. Reset and repeat||

[buoyant escarp]

Thanks a lot u saved me some much time

[heady veldt]

duh i wish i would have thought of this when i was doing mine 😂

[slim elk]

saw that in a reddit post so it's not my idea lol

[buoyant escarp]

In the divisom can I use my controller as a mic for raids etc..?

[slim elk]

you'd have to mute yourself when you're not talking but yes you can

[buoyant escarp]

Ok so how do I stop Isac thing from talking all the time because its loud

[slim elk]

lower the dialogue volume

you don't need it for raids that much

[buoyant escarp]

Thatns a lot i thought dialogue was only for cutscenes and npcs

[heady veldt]

oh baby!!!

wait.. is Oxi-pecker regular exotic?

ah it is

[half karma]

is there some sort of hidden mechanic to the Fragile Armor Directive? I find sometimes I use an Armor Kit and it doesn't repair the stack of Broken

[wispy merlin]

in some content there are no heads to hit

[heady veldt]

so crafting a piece of gear is kind of pointless.. the attribute rolls are doo doo.. can you get higher rolls or not? @wispy merlin

I'm feeling I'm better off just farming stuff

[wispy merlin]

it's all chance, but mostly you craft if the item is hard to farm

[heady veldt]

roger

[acoustic meteor]

So it does? im not sure what content has to do with purely statistics

[wispy merlin]

content with no heads or not enough heads will make it difficult to run these because you have no damage otherwise

but yes, in the right content, headshot builds always win

[acoustic meteor]

Im aware that content with no head exists i was just interested in the hypothetical crit againt pure headshot dmg numerical values

[wispy merlin]

then headshot always wins, but again i say practical stuff because they're practical

if you want to hear that info then you do, if you don't you don't, doesn't hurt

[modest olive]

is there a limit on how many times i can switch a core attribute on a piece?

[mild zealot]

chat what's the best summit quests to easily get the capacitor?

[harsh hemlock]

yeahhh--

im truly curious to try-------

[buoyant escarp]

Please im on scout 11 last part i keep nading enemies yet its not registering as kills what am I doing wrong?

[nimble spruce]

Are you in the right area of the map? Are the grenades killing enemies outright?
The usual easy way is to set difficulty to normal, then a regular concussion grenade should 1-shot red enemies

[buoyant escarp]

Aaah its constricted to that area. My bad thanks

[harsh hemlock]

can i reset/upgrade everything here?

[pearl pasture]

At shd 1000 you will have everything maxed and then you just get scav points. At 2000 you stop gaining health iirc

[warm pawn]

my game was running perfectly and when i got in today, it lags when i move my camera, i tried to restart the game but didnt work

[harsh hemlock]

thank you!

[pearl pasture]

For the red stuff (offensive), do CHC (crit hit chance) first then CHD (crit hit damage). Crit based stats are in most dps builds and especially strikers. The extra chc lets you have more room for chd mods/rolls in those builds. For skills (utility) do damage then haste. Handling choices are preference but extra ammo doesn't hurt. For blues (defensive) it is also kinda choice based. I'd say total armour and hazpro first then health and lastly explosive resist. @hasty yarrow sorry forgot to reply so here is a ping.

[heady veldt]

what's the max health bonus on SHD 2000?

[pearl pasture]

+60,000

[modest loom]

this good?

[pseudo tundra]

Not really, it looks like it could fix everything but what makes builds strong is getting into specifics talents

[amber snow]

where can i find the expertise costs chart?

[oak gazelle]

pins

[wild harness]

When will this stock be able to fold?

[pseudo tundra]

it's folded by default, some minor glitch keeps it open sometimes?

[forest otter]

BTSU has several NPC's without heads: Warhounds and Minitanks.
On legendary, those 2 are a real threat.

Tanks also have helmets as well. So those have to be broken in order to do damage to the target.

[acoustic meteor]

Brother please read the whole msg before answering

[forest otter]

In most cases, crit is often a more consistent option.

Even with the ability to hit headshots, you are more likely to get the damage amp with crit because of the variety of NPC's that have headshot protection or immunity.

I made the mistake of ignoring crit on year 1 until I started Raiding.

[acoustic meteor]

On NUMERICAL STANDPOINT Does headshot can stack more DMG THEORETICALLY than crit?

Was my question

answer is simple as yes and no and i got my answer which is yes

[forest otter]

You can get the huge Head Hunter multi million headshot, but most NPC's are limited on how much HP they have.
It is in some cases, or often Trash Damage.

[acoustic meteor]

imma just give up at this point

question is theoretical not practical

[forest otter]

If you kill a 6m hp npc with a 23m headshot, then you just wasted 17m damage.

You built up nice stats tho.

[acoustic meteor]

Again what this has to do with the fact im just asking on theoretical standpoint?

[wild harness]

It's still spread out like that.

[summer canyon]

Do I have to progress through the stretch goals again once I complete them?

Yes. As long you have enough optimization materials

Only the secondary attributes

[empty moth]

The amount of tokens you get from one Countdown run seems like an incredibly ineffective way to get exotics, would it be better to just grind targeted loot?

[summer canyon]

Yes, cuz I did get a few Exotics in Countdown through Targeted Loot

[empty moth]

So countdown can have exotic targeted loot even before you open the cache that needs tokens?

And if countdowns targeted isnt what im looking for what should i do

[forest otter]

On paper, a head headhunter build on the 3 headhunter shot has a far higher damage ceiling. Heck, you could run it with the nemesis and have 50m headshots. The problem is that there is a good reason that only a few of us keep a nemesis on all 4 of our characters.

There are only a few niche circumstances where that level of damage is genuinely beneficial.

[tulip fiber]

You’re technically re-rolling, not crafting. It’ll change the attributes and stay percentage. Accuracy isn’t gonna help. If you want to try for DTOoC go for it. It is better to see what you’d get.

Very much. Only need like two or three. Nice. That’s great numbers. You re-roll exotics, then craft everything else.

[graceful carbon]

what is the definitive best way to level up profiency to hit level ten in like a day

[shut pewter]

whats this number mean on priority objectives?

recommended gear level or something along those lines?

[patent vigil]

season xp

[shut pewter]

ah thanks

[patent vigil]

each weapon/gear seat/named piece has its own proficiency.

just use the thing a lot. if its a brand set, have 3 pieces on. gear set, 4p set, etc.

proficiency/expertise is the end game activity for long term grinding.

[harsh hemlock]

the green armor pieces are going to disappear at the end of the season?

[royal crag]

what green armour

[harsh hemlock]

the green armor like armor sets

[royal crag]

like gear sets?

[harsh hemlock]

yeah

[royal crag]

dont think so

[harsh hemlock]

oki tyty

[graceful carbon]

whats the best way to get gear sets?

[royal crag]

target loot

[graceful carbon]

on summit or countdown

[patent vigil]

also target loot in Countdown on challenging if you want to grind mindlessly a bitr.

[royal crag]

either

[royal crag]

depends if you wanna get bored doing summit in about 20 mins

[shut pewter]

are arenas not popular? been trying to matchmake for a while and got nothin

[rare storm]

where can i see wich one those are?

[bold tiger]

think they're the ones with a target range icon with a line going across them?

[rare storm]

alr thanks

[muted ginkgo]

Is that Scorpio skin the last apparel item you get?

[bold tiger]

i don't think i've gotten it yet, but haven't been playing much either. but it is currently bugged

[muted ginkgo]

Well i got 5 arm patches + 5 kickflip items and then i got the skin

[bold tiger]

sounds like you got everything

[cedar yacht]

No upto you anyways

[bold tiger]

if you don't like doing the projects, you'll still have to grind the points for them

[slate vessel]

Hello folks, I attempted to take down the 4x hunters puzzle in NY and ended up dying to them, is there a cooldown or is it as they say that I need to do it on another players world? I tried swaping agents but it didnt seem to solve the issue

[nimble spruce]

No, you'll just need to do the whole summoning procedure again from the start.

[slate vessel]

thats strange cause I did but the shooting targets pops back up but they should stay down if its done correctly, no?

[nimble spruce]

Iirc the start of that one requires you to shoot Christmas tree stars, it's the longest and most convoluted of all the Hunter puzzles

[slate vessel]

Indeed it is, I've followed the steps

[nimble spruce]

Ah, so you got all the way to the target stage, getting them in the right order and the right time of day/night, and they still wouldn't stay down? That's odd

[slate vessel]

yeah, just completted Neurotic mask one, Ill give it another try soon

[junior sequoia]

What is the fastest way to get season xp? ( I already completed the journey and manhunt)

[wispy merlin]

priority objectives on high difficulty

just difficulty matters, directives can be 0

[fathom burrow]

Anyone know how to avoid getting flashbanged by light every single time I enter a building/come out of my map?

[glad wave]

Where do I find this resource?

[pearl pasture]

I think any true son boss will drop one or two or alternatively you can craft them if you have the BP in the optimization part of the bench. I think the BP comes from level 4 control points.

[wispy merlin]

try looking down then looking up

[lilac pewter]

Is tye strega any good?

[heady veldt]

crafting bench / optimization / if you have the blueprint it will be within the list of optimization blueprints, if not you'll need to grind CPs and projects to unlock it.. it's kind of rng in that sense.. you also get optimization materials from optimization chest rewards (projects, Stretch Goals etc) and you can buy optimization chests from vendors for specific activities like countdown

[frosty parrot]

How good are the exotic smokebomb gloves for pve and pvp?

[junior sequoia]

For pve, NPC doesn't target you for 3s, pvp is just the smoke effect and pulse immunity + name invisible for 2s.

[frosty parrot]

It doesn't get you out of combat in pvp?

Not that itd matter anyway

[junior sequoia]

Player dmg has a 10s count to be removed from combat, exodus gloves doesn't affect that.

[frosty parrot]

Bruh

K thanks

Also, how is the mortar turret faring nowadays?

Is it still good for skill builds?

[junior sequoia]

The same way it was firing 6 years ago?

[frosty parrot]

3 years

[junior sequoia]

I mean, the demolitionist spec is 6 years old isn't?

[frosty parrot]

Yeah, but idk if they changed it while i was out

[wooden void]

Im so confused. I was looking up what the max lvl for Div2 is and apperntly its 40 if you have done Warlords of nyc which i have done. but some some reason im stuck at lvl 35? my SHD lvl is 82

[nimble spruce]

If you've got a shd level then you must be level 40. What makes you think you're lvl 35?

[cedar yacht]

That char is level 35

shd 82

[wooden void]

yeah but i should be 40 no?

atlest i saw that 40 is max if u have the dlc

and i have nothing else todo

[nimble spruce]

What level does your gear say? Top left.

[wooden void]

must be a glitch then?

[nimble spruce]

Yeah you must be lvl 40, that 35 must refer to something else, like season level

[wooden void]

ok thx i very confusing lol

[frosty parrot]

Open your season pass

Maybe it's your season pass level

[modest olive]

Is the whole mule character for expertise thing worth it if I’m only 400 shd?

[nimble spruce]

Not really, you'll get like 80 scav points for however long it takes you to do the 30-40 leveling process

[frosty parrot]

how does refactor fare in pvp?

also how are shields in pvp nowadays?

[slim elk]

#td2-pvp-discussions smh.

[half karma]

are there any sites similar to ones that Destiny 2 has where it tracks in game activities and events / timers? like https://www.todayindestiny.com/

[twilit tiger]

hey does anyone know if there is a way to do the justice department side mission if you created a new character and skipped the story?

[warped pilot]

hey, can you drop ninjabag messenger bag in any targeted loot area ?

[half karma]

for the Reanimated Global Event coming up near the end of the month, would a Hotshot Determined build be good? It seems headshot focused but i’ve never done it before

[rugged stratus]

should be in the general loot pool. at one point you needed it from a cache first but that should be fixed... it was a long time ago

countdown and priority objectives the fastest exo farms atm

[warped pilot]

ok thanks, it seems it won't drop for me, just unlucky then 🙂

[rugged stratus]

all those other exo are either useful pieces, or solid components. and youll need a lot of them so its not a bad thing it taking a bit to drop

[warped pilot]

I miss only only like 5 exos and my library is fully maxed out so...

[rugged stratus]

999/999 exo components? its like 60-70 components each item you push to 28expertise

[modest olive]

do yall think the emp and decoy will ever be free or will it probably always through the new york dlc

[cedar schooner]

Probably always through the dlc

But who knows

[amber snow]

is it worse to use modifiers in incursion?

[pseudo tundra]

didnt they disable them on it like they do on the raids

[empty moth]

is the emp launcher a guaranteed drop from the manhunt?

[pseudo tundra]

yes

[empty moth]

awesome

[pseudo tundra]

the skills are a reward for completing it

the first 4 gave skills

[empty moth]

what happens if someone completes it without warlords?

[pseudo tundra]

i dont think the can get the first 3

they can get the 4th one

or they might unlock thme just fine

cant remember from the top of my head

[empty moth]

but would they be able to use them? since they havent unlocked the base verisonsf rom the dlc

[pseudo tundra]

honestly cant remember right now

i want to say achilles pulse should be fine sein it's a pulse

[amber snow]

idk haven't run it since i got the oreo the week the mode dropped by a streamer who came back wants to run it and im trying to relearn it

[next inlet]

Can you get a raid weapon such as the regulus for the first time from one of the new Brooklyn caches?

[bold tiger]

.5% chance apparently

[open mountain]

yea

even though they said it would be a thing 💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔💔

[rugged stratus]

is regulus even possible in the caches?

[bold tiger]

according to the patch notes it's in the .5% bit of exclusive exotics

[wraith flare]

yes

[slim elk]

I swear to god this game keeps teasing me. @rugged stratus

[rugged stratus]

nice. thanks for the ss also, .drib

[bold tiger]

if devs don't change their minds about it, will be every season on as well

[rugged stratus]

stretch goals was a good play on their part. i hope that continues regardless of the available exo

[bold tiger]

i thought so to, but some people aren't happy about it

huh, bot didn't like my one message so i rephrased it and i get booted out of discord completely?

[rugged stratus]

just delete it, bot gets funny sometimes

[pearl pasture]

Wanted to ask: with mules getting killed off, is it worth me pre stacking a few to overcap my mats right now? Should i also keep the mules with points left or just delete em?

[rugged stratus]

I would keep them , and maybe mule one a few times for overcapping mats before they implement shared scavenging

[pearl pasture]

Alrighty, thank ya!

[royal crag]

how do you farm up this shd resource

[lucid yew]

How does referral program work I want the rewards can I play the game on multiple accounts to unlock?

[bold tiger]

if you can manage it, you'd have to have them both logged in and in party

[pearl pasture]

@turbid sandal

[turbid sandal]

And that's only for the Brooklyn activation cache, right?

[pearl pasture]

Yeah just those

[bold tiger]

Btw the Scorpio skin crashes your game

[turbid sandal]

Lmao

[bold tiger]

Yeah, saw a picture of it and I retched, looks ugly to me. Was thinking ill collect ir but never apply it

[pearl pasture]

Yeah do NOT save it to a laodout. Otherwise you gotta do some transfering to fix it

[feral bronze]

still no update on the deluxe price etc for brooklyn and still not updated to the 27th like 2 weeks away it better drop

store page not updated come on devs why no price yet

[wary spoke]

Does Birdie's +45% Hive Efficiency also affect Stinger/Artificer?

[valid mantle]

It is easy to get eagle bearer and bighorn right now? And how?

[nimble spruce]

EB: dark hours raid
Bighorn: legendary named enemies
Both: 0.5% chance from Brooklyn caches above season lvl 100, or even smaller chance from DZ

[hot canyon]

I got the EB last night from one of the Caches, Not really impressed with it so dont worry if it does not drop. Cool to hang on the wall but compared to other much easier to get AR's its average.

[ornate juniper]

can somebody else start the new manhunt climax mission for me?
even if i didn't do all the scouts?

[ornate juniper]

wasn't EB also added to darkzone drop like pestilence?

[lilac pewter]

No, you'll get bounced back to the beginning

[ornate juniper]

what do you mean by that

[lilac pewter]

So everytime you pass the start of the mission it'll just reset you to the start, only those that have completed the scouts can do the mission. Believe me I tried on master because I was to lazy to do the scouts 😂

[ornate juniper]

xd

what is master and is it worth doing?

[lilac pewter]

However iv done the scout missions now, just used YouTube and flew passed them takes a couple hours. It's mostly control points and activities on the free roam map and a couple of actual missions

It was quite a fun mission overall and you get the new wolf hunter mask which looks cool

[ornate juniper]

you get it only on master?

[lilac pewter]

Yess

But master isn't to hard to do

[ornate juniper]

is it easier than legendary

[lilac pewter]

I completed it with a matchmade team using striker/ouroborous and yeah easier than legendary I thought atleast

This is the mask

[ornate juniper]

ty

[pseudo tundra]

You can get the exotic at other difficulties but its random

While master is a 100% on your first clear

[lilac pewter]

Ahhh yes forgot about the exotic

[ornate juniper]

what exotic is it

[pseudo tundra]

The mask is a bit buggy right now and some folks are saying only who killed the last hunter got it

A backpack that buffs reviving people

[ornate juniper]

ah
eh

[lilac pewter]

Don't think it's that great tho compared to other exotics you can use

[ornate juniper]

ty guys

[minor ferry]

To farm a certain weapon by playing missions, should that mission be invaded to give me the best chances?

[royal crag]

how do you farm shd componentws

[harsh hemlock]

should i active deconstruction mod?

[royal crag]

depends if you still need mods

[empty moth]

does heroic coutndown have a better chance of dropping exotics than challenging

[fierce fiber]

does anyone know if you can get the ninjabike backback from targeted loot? cant find a straight answer anywhere

[royal crag]

i think you can

[tulip fiber]

It’s just harder enemy scaling. Challenging has heroic quality loot drops.

[royal crag]

what do the tiger eyes do

i opened a fridge and got them

[tulip fiber]

Part of a hunter puzzle

[royal crag]

thanks

[tulip fiber]

You can look them up on YT to complete them

[exotic charm]

so i started playing the game 2 days ago wondered if anyone has an active clan/discord for teaming up

[valid mantle]

Is there guaranteed way to get bighorn?

[pseudo tundra]

Nope, its farming legendary bosses

[junior cave]

Hello! Whats the max count of blueprints we can get from reconstructed caches? I'm sitting at 515/543 and i cannot get more.

Am i missing something? I didnt get the rewards from season 3, which there was hunters fury gs and bellstone.

[narrow kraken]

what brand set is this ?

[odd condor]

Yaahl, only available as a rare DZ drop or rarely from the clan vendor

[junior cave]

Oh, so till that, i'm still missing some bps... Thanks for info!

[burnt arrow]

Hello all im coming back into Div 2 after few years i have max lvl character and id like to ask is matchmaking alive ? for misions strongolds and end game things ? ty for answer.

[heady veldt]

yah.. I'm a new player who started 4 weeks ago.. haven't had any problems getting people to play with me. I use matchmaking rarely though.. it's just more convenient to call for help and that's how people mostly group up now anyways.. I had for hours with 3 other folks last night and farmed for a couple of hours.. same with Countdown.. easy group up with folks.

[nimble spruce]

There's a list pinned in #td2-descent, but those caches only give named items, other blueprints you might be missing like old season ones won't drop from them

[empty moth]

can chameleon drop from countdown?

[heady veldt]

yes.. it's in the general pool

[empty moth]

some things say otherwise

but also the wiki and here says it can

[heady veldt]

I'm not sure 100% but I'm pretty sure.. I got it by just playing from either countdown or prio objectives.. one of the two.. could have been countdown vendor exotic chest too.. but it was very early when i was grinding for exotics.. so unless exotic chests have differeent pool I would say it is in the general pool

I got St. Elmos the same way .. so I'm pretty sure they are both in general pool

I know that when i started playing, I didn't even figure out the prio objectives so I was farming Countdown for exotics for credits.. so I'm 99.9% sure I got Chameleon from Countdown drop or Countdown vendor chest for credits

[empty moth]

and does Ouro actually only drop from paradise lost?

[modern rock]

other than Brooklyn Activation caches yes

[little citrus]

I feel like Im doing something wrong, I've run about 10 countdowns and my teammate has gotten 4 exotic drops while I havent gotten a single one, isnt the chance for a drop to be exotic 5% on challenging?

[empty moth]

yes it does

what do these mean

[kind cove]

Read the description of the gun

[empty moth]

oh is it the indicator for the buffs

[kind cove]

Yes

[empty moth]

so like the top one is the headshot one etc

[kind cove]

Yea, tells you when they are active

[empty moth]

i see i see

[little citrus]

Why does my gun have so much red

[heady veldt]

top (crit damage), middle (weapon damage), bottom (reload speed)

[rugged stratus]

the highlighted item compared to current equipped

[little citrus]

ah

[rugged stratus]

press g and you can do a side by side of the 2 items

[little citrus]

Ok so theres a 5% chance for an exotic to drop in place of a gold right?

on challenging

[rugged stratus]

comparison is based on the slot you clicked

not sure the drop rates anymore tbh. with countdown and priority objectives you can skew the drop rates by purchasing caches and running exo prio obj

[little citrus]

I havent gotten a single exotic after like 300 drops 😭

[rugged stratus]

need more Lootcifer sacrifices
🔥 😈 🔥

[little citrus]

failing 300 5% drops just feels statistically improbable

[rugged stratus]

i mean, you can skew it in your favor with countdown caches/prio obj... what you do with the info is on you 🤔

[heady veldt]

made another character.. just so I have it at 40.. I boosted it to 30 now on DC .. what's the fastest way to grind it out real quick to 40? DZ? Just do missions and stuff and NY? Any tips on getting someone to help me out maybe? for more xp?

[rugged stratus]

dz landmarks solo, invaded /regular missions in group

[heady veldt]

prio objectives?

[rugged stratus]

idk if those are available before 40

[heady veldt]

they are.. I can see them now at 30 they even drop exotics too

[rugged stratus]

oh nice

its been a long time since i had and alt <40

[heady veldt]

they might be the best bet considering I can also still get brooklyn cache points

mission is 380 points for brooklyn caches, stronghold 523

[rugged stratus]

if its leveling you then do it up, those exo components the same regardless of level they drop

[heady veldt]

curious about the e-credits.. those don't transfer from the other character right?

i can see all the blueprints at crafting table.. would be nice to make lower ranked striker gear to blast through everything

I have all the mats available now from the other character but e-credits no go

I guess I can sell out stuff from stash I don't need

[little citrus]

Wait do I need the dlc to get the scorpio?

[empty moth]

could i get Dark Winters from a named item cache?

[wispy merlin]

yes

[bold tiger]

as it was explained to us Master Difficulty is between Heroic and Legendary in difficulty

[wispy merlin]

legendary health and damage, heroic AI, can have extra mechanics

[fierce fiber]

anyone know what a supply drop activity is? I've never seen it before and its a prority objective

[rugged stratus]

they spawn when you have some controlpoints taken over under your control. they will look like a parachute icon iirc

[bold tiger]

box with a parachute coming out of it

[modest olive]

where is a good place to farm this?

[bold tiger]

you check in the resource tab in your inventory? i forget but i'm thinking anything with cleaners? mostly new york?

[modest olive]

ahh okay thx

[bold tiger]

that's considering you don't have the blueprint to craft it

[pearl pasture]

Cleaners bosses or you can get the bp to craft em

[modest olive]

oh how could i get a bp?

[bold tiger]

level 3-4 control points probably the most proficient way

or setting yoru world to challening/heroic to have instant 3-4 control points

[modest olive]

okay bet thx

[pearl pasture]

When you look at a control point, should say "supplies available" and show if there is a bp iirc but it is rng

[hoary charm]

Hi guy. Something happened two days ago, I went to my stash to check a certain gear. Then I saw my mail had 40 something items wen I opened wow Brooklyn Caches. I don't know when how or when did I get them. Yet we waiting for Brooklyn to launch.

[pseudo tundra]

we are currently having an event

after reaching level 100 on the season pass you can keep grinding to get the new brooklyn caches with some rare goodies

[hoary charm]

Now I'm in the DZ, when opened the proficiency caches two more Brooklyn caches😂

[dull marlin]

So Im looking to complete a project, and I need 5 SHD techs. I only have 4, what am I missing here? Like where in the civic center area would the final one be?

[wanton silo]

Try this https://division2map.com/nyc

[kindred mason]

Hello! I wanted to get St Elmos Engine, where can I get it?

[inner tendon]

@kindred mason Same as about 90% of loot in div2: Targeted Loot in Challenging Countdown (CD), but also make sure you buy the Exotic Caches from the CD Laptop vendor. GL Agent

[kindred mason]

Thanks very much!

[heady robin]

Hey does anyone know how I can get the black gear dye?

[bold tiger]

did google come up short on it? i honestly don't remember

i found this, this seems more reasonable for a youtube video
https://www.trueachievements.com/forum/viewthread.aspx?tid=1092172

[heady robin]

Yeah when I searched it wasn't bringing up anything for the Division 2, just hair dye for some reason. Despite me typing Division 2 in the search lol

[modern rock]

there's two found footage files that were obtainable during season vanguard

[pearl pasture]

NYC hunters crate iirc

[noble snow]

master difficulty should become a new difficulty option for missions

[mild valve]

So I have a question cause google doesn't really help with giving me a straight answer. I have been on the hunt for the Memento Backpack and did 100 floors of Summit (no drop) tons of objectives that promise a exotic, and tried getting into higher end content. I am so confused or is RNG hate me?

[noble snow]

rng hates you. countdown in challenging/heroic difficulty with backpacks targeted will probably yield better results

[pseudo tundra]

Priority objectives and countdown are good ways to get exotic drops

You can see if a priority has exotic item as reward and countdown lets you buy caches

[exotic charm]

Is there an image for all enemy weakpoints anywhere can't seem to find a list on Google

[slim elk]

let me guess
Scout missions?

Outcasts have a lot of weakpoints, just be patient and take them out with riot foam if you think you'll struggle

[digital chasm]

Do we have to make seasonal characters next season?

[slim elk]

where did you get that info?

[digital chasm]

A buddy, it’s old info I said

[pseudo tundra]

No

Seasonal characters dont exist

[lethal plover]

What causes post-conflict match to take so long to load?

[heady veldt]

anyone know why this won't let me claim it? Logged out like 3 times.. is there a prerequisite maybe?

[sudden matrix]

Have an exotic weapon equipped? I hear that's preventing opening them. If so just put something else on.

[heady veldt]

yeah... let me try

well spank me hard and call me nelly.. that did it

gave me refactor set and capacitor.. isn't that nice of them 🙂

thanks @sudden matrix very helpful

is there a way to upgrade the crafting table to high-end before reaching 40.. I can't remember how i did it on my first run?

[bold tiger]

nah, think it's 40 to go high end

[tame elbow]

Anyone have any idea why capacitor isn't dropping for me. I have done the 5 summit challenges then it isn't added to my inventory

[trim meadow]

is there have any bowling area location inside Division 2 to explore?

[sudden matrix]

Coney Island

Safe house is one iirc

[rugged stratus]

just pulled my first exo from a brooklyn activation cache around season 140. exodus gloves tho

[bold tiger]

yeah, gotten those, gottent he oxpecker

[half karma]

kinda late but what modifiers would be decent to use with a determined hotshot build using a shield?

I'm just running
Overdrive w/
Reactive Reinforcement

trying out Momentum Surge (would kills with a gun while holding the shield count as as a skill kill?)

Fortified Shield

[neat coral]

so i got 6 exotics so far. the game is trolling me HARD: 3 Oxpecker and 3 Exodus Gloves.....i feel so cheated

[nimble spruce]

the drop chance for those is way higher than the raid ones

[dapper sparrow]

I saw a build guide on YT with Bullet King and a talent (chest or backpack) that refreshes your ammo every X (I think it's 100) hits. What is that talent?

[nimble spruce]

the bullet king talent does that

[gray mason]

Anyone know what is going on with the servers? I keep getting sporadic lag spikes, and the connection is "blue" 🤔

Aaaaaaaand DELTA-03 🤦🏽‍♂️

[half ravine]

same

[acoustic meteor]

Does somebody nkow fix for this the game keeps going into windowed and resetting my settings every 2-3 launch of the game

[gray mason]

Aaaaaand it deleted my progress on the RI: Kelso mission 🤦🏽‍♂️

The fact that this is 2025, and developers still haven't implemented a failsafe way to save people's progress in these situations, is beyond laughable 🙄

[fair tartan]

Does anyone know why birdies isn't giving overcharge when I complete a res? Wether it be manual or hive res

[mellow trout]

You need to be st6

[lapis sky]

This happens to me too I'm curious 🤔

[winter needle]

When I played on pc I had to go into the files and change what size the game launches in. Not in game setting but files on pc.

[frosty parrot]

Do the devs intend to implement cross save anytime soon?

[plucky hawk]

no, theyve told us not to expect it for div2

[frosty parrot]

Bruh

[jagged imp]

hunter mask hunting is so stupid

why does my map have to have a certain object be in a certain color for me to get this cosmetic

[inner tendon]

If you're having trouble solving the Puzzles, try looking up a guide.

One of the few times I'd ever recommend using div2 youtubers is for those.

[jagged imp]

its not about that, i got a youtube video.

but its saying if the object isnt the right color i have to find a friend and use his map

[inner tendon]

Which Hunter Mask are you going for?

[jagged imp]

carbon

[inner tendon]

I'm not really sure what you're referring to re: object colour. The only colour aspect of Carbon I can recall is the yellow power boxes, and those can't change.

[jagged imp]

yea the power boxes are black for me

[inner tendon]

The "yellow" part refers to their paint colour, not a light on them.

Have you tried and failed this Hunter today? Or are you trying to replay it after having complete it?

[jagged imp]

this my first time

idk but this power box looks black to me

[inner tendon]

Just follow the guide, and make sure that you double-check if it needs to be "night time".

[jagged imp]

its an anytime puzzle apparently

watching NothingButSkillz video rn

[bold tiger]

nods screenshots on reddit shows it pretty dark out

[inner tendon]

IIRC at least one point during that video, they fail to mention that it needs to be dark out during a fight, so I would just prepare accordingly.

and always remember: 21:00 - 05:00, that's "night time" ingame. You can see the clock via hitting Escape.

[jagged imp]

i checked the other boxes

one is yellow

but all neds to be yellow

idky this has to be so complex and not straight forward

[inner tendon]

Again: the paint doesn't change colour. Just follow the guide exactly.

[jagged imp]

okay

[bold tiger]

ohhh, when did they add the time in esc menu?

btw: i got at least 2 yellow boxes on my 2nd account for that mask

[inner tendon]

A while back now, but along with "hide spec weapons", it's one of the best subtle changes ever.

[bold tiger]

i didn't know, i still did the esc hold f for photo mode to look at time

[inner tendon]

@eager scroll You're looking for #lfg-pc, GL Agent

[eager scroll]

Ah thank you

[lilac pewter]

Wait u till you get to the neurotic mask 🤧

[covert temple]

Hi, for some reason, since the beginning of this week, I can only choose Heroic for Manhunt mode of Manning Zoo. Whenever I want to switch back to standard Manning Zoo, I can only play Story Mode...

Does anyone have the same issue ? How can I solve this? Cause I really Hate the Manhunt Mode...

[wispy merlin]

play the story of the normal zoo first, then you should be able to select the higher difficulties

[covert temple]

But I alreayd played this difficulty before ><#.

But okay let's do that again

Thanks

[wispy merlin]

yeah it's finicky. only way to resolve it is to do it again

[covert temple]

Ok it's weird, it's scales with heroic but drops purple xD

[empty moth]

what exactly does chameleon base its color off of?

[bold tiger]

i heard it changes colors to what you take cover behind of

[modern rock]

it changes color based on environment you're around

[empty moth]

its something more specific than that though

here it would be white bc of the barrier and car but its choosing the mud on the ground

but its not just what youre standing on either bc here its chosen the dirt

unless it doesnt count props

but it also will turn red or blue in the white house

[modest loom]

also purple i believe

[jagged imp]

How can i get Lefty the auto shotgun?

can it still drop from summit or?

[bold tiger]

tried named caches?

[wispy merlin]

just target loot shotgun

[jagged imp]

ty

[bold tiger]

oh? thought it was one of the dz exclusives too 🤣

[jagged imp]

it said it was a season 10 drop so i thought it was limited edition

[wispy merlin]

nyeh

[bold tiger]

only 2 limited editions comes to mind. Lexington and Turmoil

[jagged imp]

oh ok

[modern rock]

im pretty sure it will just choose which color is the most present around you

[jagged imp]

is the backpack with the skateboard from a time limited event?

[bold tiger]

101-110 stretch goals Brookly Activation Caches

got until the 27th to get it

[jagged imp]

oh ok

[fair tartan]

i am and it still wont work

[fair tartan]

I am still at st6

[bold tiger]

think roguegold did a test on that in a recent video

[jagged imp]

i dont see the stretch goals

im looking at journey rn

[bold tiger]

season pass page 11

[jagged imp]

ohh

[jagged imp]

that cant be the backpack i was seeing tho, it had a full skateboard i think

[bold tiger]

ask someone else i guess? i got mine there

[jagged imp]

oh ok

[pearl pasture]

The kickflip set (5 pieces) drops from the brooklyn caches.

Bag has a skateboard missing a wheel

[noble snow]

are stretch goals going to be available for next season pass as well

[jagged imp]

and those caches u get from the season pass right?

[pearl pasture]

No idea but right now they are just a prelude to BFB afaik

[pearl pasture]

Yeah once you hit 100, 101-110

[jagged imp]

oh ok

[pearl pasture]

I think you get 6 per 10 reset.

As they are repeatable

[jagged imp]

any way to grind efficiently the season pass?

[pearl pasture]

I would recommend farming stronghold priority objectives as they give the most season pass xp

Can get a full level a stronghold basically with the prio and mission xp. At least for heroic and challenging

Should be noted that each stronghold gives different amounts with tidal and manning being the highest but also longest

[modest olive]

does the 500-1000 dz shd bracket have less players?

ever since i moved up all dzs have been dead for me

[muted lance]

100 chests but no drop exotic raid GG lucky me

🥵

[empty moth]

what am i targeting to get glass cannon?

[wispy merlin]

you don't, you can only target the brand

[empty moth]

they dont have brands tho?

[pearl pasture]

Glass cannon is a chest talent. The specific gear brand can be anything other than a gear set or exotic.

[pearl pasture]

I think the odds are 1/200 so really rare. Not had any myself either.

[wispy merlin]

exotics don't have brand ofc

they're exotics

[empty moth]

So do i target chest gear then?

[wispy merlin]

if you need glass cannon, you might as well farm the brand of the chest you want

which as we discussed earlier today is china light

[empty moth]

but it wouldnt be an exotic then

[wispy merlin]

why does it have to be?

no exotics match the build you're trying to fix

[empty moth]

well i started with "what exotic"

[wispy merlin]

where does this say exotic?

[empty moth]

#td2-build-advice message

[wispy merlin]

that build doesn't use any exotics except for a possible gun

[wispy merlin]

_ _

[mellow trout]

Besides you don't need an exotic for every build

[empty moth]

thgis may explain why i have yet to get the gear that i want to drop

[wispy merlin]

not every build needs an exotic

[empty moth]

noted

[wispy merlin]

definitely not the one you're running, besides capacitor

[pearl pasture]

Would say try to get the capacitor when you can though assuming you stick to a skill build

[empty moth]

i did get cap and then gave it to the other skill build of the group bc luv me vector

[wispy merlin]

that one is also guaranteed, just do 5 challenges in summit and you will get it

[snow cargo]

Generally HW mine spam doesn't need cap.

[wispy merlin]

oh well hopefully you get its blueprint before you shared it...

[snow cargo]

But if you have nothing better cap is really good!

[pearl pasture]

Cap is also just a nice gun in general

[wispy merlin]

to optimize the damage of seekers in that build you want a shotgun or capacitor. vector won't help it

[empty moth]

i can play a little outta the meta

i wanna get dark winters on the second slot but havent bothered to actually grind for it yet

[wispy merlin]

the build is not even meta so

[mellow trout]

Killer needs a crit to proc

That build has no chc whatsoever

[empty moth]

there is ZERO red whatsoever

[empty moth]

cant run ouro and chameleon at the same time tho so named vector is the second best option

[wispy merlin]

named items like exotics are also rarely the best stuff in their slot

in this case, dark winter would be worse than a smg-9, but if you want to run it then run it anyway

just disagree with it being the "second best option"

[empty moth]

running "two" smgs in general seems like not the greatest play but its funny

[wispy merlin]

i'm just here to give advice. the choice is still yours in what you're doing with the information

[mint anchor]

is the Pentagon Breach side mission bugged in the Divsion 2

?

[amber snow]

Y'all think we getting a update tomorrow?

[jagged imp]

is lexington available to farm or no?

[slim elk]

no

[fathom agate]

ermm.... was the brooklyn activiation caches giving an apparel outfit a glitch or something?

I got the kickflip hat, the brooklyn patch and now my brooklyn activation caches aren't giving me any apparel

Where I know I seen people with a backpack, etc

[slim elk]

it's pure rng

[fathom agate]

ahhhh

I see, ty

[amber snow]

U have a 50% chance to get a piece of the kickflip set and 5 patches in those caches. They also have a 10% chance to give the oxpecker and exodus gloves and a 0.5 chance to give raid exotics. If u open that cache and it says ur getting a bonus item ur getting any of the items I just mentioned

[fathom agate]

Thanks you.

[slim elk]

Have you never optimized something before?

When optimizing an attribute, the optimization cost increases with each upgrade and the attribute's % with it

[ripe mulch]

i did 99% of all that years ago

if the backpack is orange in the libary it means all rolls are maxed and all perks are gotten right?

oh but this page its
