do you have your correct glasses on?
lol
pretty sure there was a UI explantion for this very thing? did you watch Penguins video at all and see the screen you're looking for?
if you can find this place you're in the right place to add mods to skills
O_O success, thanks everyone for your patience in helping me! ill be an expert in no time
at the bottom of the screen there are indicators telling you to press buttons to go to something as i underlined with red line
yeah, why i was asking if you knew how to mod weapons. it's the same exact process along with chest, backpack, mask and if you go the extra yard, gloves, holster and knees
here i thought you were there, sorry. was like um your mod is there on the screen to select. but now you were probably looking at your mods
Gotcha! I really appreciate the help, im sure this wont be my last time lol. ill do my best to make it that way though
nah, if you don't come back asking questions you'll never really learn the ways of the game
why there's no other diff?
You need to complete it once on story difficulty, dor the other difs to open up for u
i cleared it once
Idk, i ran the story mode once n the other diffs unlocked for me after that 
U sure u watched the echo at the end?
Maybe you didn't finish it in your session
What's the benefit of hounds man bounty? You can't get the outfit from it anymore no?
Q U I C K S T E P pistol ๐
Ah it drops it? Don't tell me it's also an event unique?
Sure is
yeah quickstep is from the houndsman event, that's why I was desperate to get it for you on winter ๐
What were the drop rates for quickstep during the event
I opened 35 boxes and got nothing ๐ซฉ
I have no idea, they were low plus they all varied
Oh ok so either my luck is awful or I am cursed to never get it
I got 2 ouro and 3 eb but NO quickstep
I think I opened around 200 caches and only got 3 quickstep drops
I already had 5 before the event
Yh not to brag ab it ๐
Do yk if there is any other way 2 get it?
Or am I forced to run at a normal speed
not atm, pray for Stretch Goals this season
Oh im praying ๐
the servers are completley offline?
Check the server status channel
it says it should only be affecting play station not pc
US West all fine here
Im east
I bet it's your internet again
Maybe its ur connection?
nah im browins the web
Doesn't mean much
You also didn't give any info so all you get is wild guesses in response
im back in
Is it workin
yup
Happy days
Even though i never activate the companions the guy shows up whenever i travle to dark zone. I never even finished scout 1
They randomly pop up in the open world
A thousand thanks, it's very annoying cuz wanted to give it to 2 of my friends whom I got the games for but I guess it's a no go rn
Could anyone tell my stupid ass if golden bullet is still going on rn
Im still really new to this game but I think my build isn't all that bad
wouldnt worry about builds till you get your watch bro
doesnt matter at all dont try and build
Everyone will get one in valentine event that coming maybe in 2 week
a whole world of builds gonna be opening up once you hit 40. when you get your shd watch, hit #td2-build-advice pins for a spreadsheet and a bunch of solid guides
Dumb question: Will I get priority objectives or Daily / weekly projects from Brooklyn or New york if I get the DLCs?
Very rarely, sadly
But it can happen then? Okay I guessie
Yes, my current prio objective is The Tombs mission in NY
Can I still get the quickstep pistol?
yes, ask for houndsman bounty at #lfg-pc
Aside from Quickstep, any sidearm recommendations for this build?
A TDI Kard is pretty much the meta go-to when you don't have a Quickstep/can't afford to swap to it.
When you're holding it in your hand, it gives you a +1 Skill Tier.
(note: it works on the Reviver Hive if you hold it the whole time it's out, giving you 2 charges, useful for a red build!)
I figured as much, right? Wasn't 100% sure. Does the bonus still apply for chem launchers? No right? Since the game technically thinks you swaped to something else?
If you are holding the gun in your hand, your used skill with it will still count.
It's like how it works with a Hive, it'll function as long as you don't put it away.
e.g. Hold the pistol > pull out a turret > collect the turret > then put away the pistol.
Just tested it, looks like there are limitations, though.
If it's a skill you actually have to aim, like the Chem, it technically counts as if it swapped from the pistol.
Using it from TDI just put me back at 3 ammo from 4.
I guess Quickstep it is then.
Deployable skills or skills that do not require you to change to them actively get a buff from the KARD Custom if that one is equipped
Yep. That was my earlier question. I now have the concrete answer. rip. Oh well, it's no big loss.
Movement speed is just as good if not better for this build anyway. Chaining kills gets easier the faster I can go from target to target.
Keep the KARD Custom on you tho, comes in handy pretty often. If a mate is down and you wanna revive them, switch pistols to KARD, throw reviver hive, pick it back up after the dust is settled. You will have used one charge only with one in spare. Just an example scenario.
Yeah, I use it on other builds. Just won't be efficient for this one in particular.
I got another red build that benefits greatly from the Kard.
Typically for Legendary to rez teammates but I still have a backup for myself.
friendship ended with tdi kard custom and revive hive
birdies hotswap is my new best friend
Old habits die slow, I have that one on me but I forget :>
how to hotswap when running btsu or overdog
๐
What if i equip it back to Quickstep when I have 2 Rev Hive?
That would be the same as putting it away: you lose the buff.
It's why most folks just use Quickstep now, since a 20% movement speed buff is hard to beat.
Hot swapping is truly an art unto itself, especially under pressure.Full build swaps etc
If I delete a mule what happens to their build? ๐ค
Gone if they had it on.
Reduced to atoms
Same with mods in skills
Glad I asked first, Thanks guys ๐
hotswap 2 things ez
Ahem proโฆ some of us had to practice lol
still no news on the ingame menu placeholder for tomorrow lets hope it happens
i just watch some german dudes do it. i can't
we will get a client update tomorrow, notice will probably drop late afternoon or in the evening
Is there another Golden bullet bounty farm location other than the one just below campus? ๐ค
this is news to me honestly
only farming i know of is National Bond classified mission
update will be on Thursday now apparently they changed whole Tuesday thing to Thursday now
I found it on a DJ Tickle YouTube video
I I knew I was doing something wrong, need more toasty time.
?? Still no info about tomorrows season event right? - i know we do get tomorrows manhunt scouts. ๐
Ok so season event thursday? - manhunt tomorrow - tuesday.
did they change the ingame calender last i checked it still said 27th but knowing them
Looks like , since update change to thursday - not tuesday. But do you know what kind of event?
Ok
noone but the devs knows
Yeah - normaly we do get some clues
expect no event for 1 week then valentine event or something
no just checked the events timelime ingame still says reset tomorrow
yeah, there's not much to go on in game events
dam lol
is this from a dev cause cant find any info on all offcial channels or tweets but then the last time the tweeted here was 11th dec
no his a guy who give news beforehand always his in other server
ah i see
the tweets here been gone for awhile honestly
massive is just king when it comes to communication
but is it such a massive surprise that its like this? 
Here ye hear ye is the man hunt active today?
funnily enough, not too far up from you asking this....
#ask-td2-community message
way further up same info ๐น
#ask-td2-community message
I guess this means no new Manhunt Scout activity, tomorrow?
Why do you think that? Scouts are set.
Dunno, given the fact that the coming patch (Y7S3.2) is probably on Thursday, I had the impression they might change the Manhunt scouts to be for Thursdays.
nah it's just missing the new event data
Fair enough
maybe from next season but this season i'm sure they already coded the time for every scout
What the general patch?
Apparently this is the code
QXD2-CV0G-DRBA-15UB
Send the pic if possible
what are you on about?
does garibaldi backpack from yaahl gear has a blueprint?
Only 3 pieces have a BP. I think that's mask, chest, and holster.
Correct
what is the difference between olympic and shasta gloves?
you just asking. i'm just going to say the name of the gloves, but not sure what exactly you mean in general though so
if cosmetic it could be a simple thing as in added accessory on it someplace
i mean they are both yaahl gear and none of the carries the yellow named mark
i assume there must be a difference to create 2 different names
all i can think of is a cosmetical look is different between the 2
ah, chat gpt says olynpic always comes with extra hazard protection
i dont know if true
i dont remember such piece, so i cant pull out one of my invetory to check
could be an old 1.0 gear piece
possible i saw it in a dark zone built from some time ago
AI? bruh :l
lol i know
that's the first brand bonus of Yaahl gear
iirc the only Named Item is the Yaahl "Hollow Man" Mask, which comes with Health Damage
So when exactly does survive fest end? Do we even know? Is it at daily reset time tomorrow or the end of the day?
this says it all
#news-and-announcements message
it's in the article L05T50UL95 posted (27th, Jan. 8:59 CET)
in your time zone -> <t:1769500740:f> <t:1769500740:R>
guy is fancy with the time conversion 
yeah just in case before someone asks what CET stands for ๐
i see now all the bundles for cosmetics ingame store have now all changed to reset late thursday hmmm
they changed from reset to thursday
good to see game devs tell us nothing lol
Iโm trying to get this key to drop but it hasnโt does it drop from the elite flamethrower or is it just from the box now
some are in the underground btw locked behind doors
some i had to run around and snipe through locked gates to shoot yellow lock box for the locked doors to open
i swore we had some we couldn't shoot so we have to lob a grenade to break the lock?
yes that also i just in the end did a search on ytube
Says keys supposed to drop but I been at it for hours nothing the also says from the locked box so Iโm trying to see so donโt wast my time
that was me usually. reddit picture posts doesn't do it well enough
hey, least Declan-Shelby knows what you speak of when you're just saying a "key drop here"
Sorry best I can do right now Iโm on my steam deck at my moms.
been along time since i been to newyork maybe 6months are more cant rem how i got them all
dont even goto new dlc just stay in washington
are you trying to get that SHD cache?
I know for fact back in the day u killed this flame man an got the key.
@pseudo tundra yes the key to open that door.
ah yes big fat chunga kill him he drops yello key beam
ohhh, the key to open the door to get that cache! yeah i did that a long long time ago and have no clue anymore
All YouTube vids are old so Iโm just asked discord like I been killing him for hours ๐
it's a bit of RNG spawn of squad if i remember correctly
i also never opened that one so far because i just keep forgetting to check
But on vid says the box drops it if so then im wasting my time an have to check tomorrow
RNG gods not good to me. ๐
Ahhh right GFL X The Division
Knew I played when the colla was on
This blubber not dropping nothing. ๐
Right but olmlympic also has it as one of its attributes
doubtful, only named yaahl is hollowman mask and that has damage to health in it. about only time a gear can have an odd stat added to it
i dont know but i have 2 olympics and both of them have hazard protection as their attribute
"Olympic" is the item name, Yaahl is the brand. The brand has an intrinstic 10% HazPro
oh right it can have it but the amount you can get on it won't be any higher than you can optimize in your library
10% HazPro is intrinsic for the brand set. They often roll with HazPro because the main attribute (core) is blue (armor)
Brand or gear sets having weapon damage (red) as main attribute will rolle preferably with red attributes
ewww, i'd be afraid to see your build with this
so you get 20 percent right?
yes, if you got 10% and the 10% innate stat it provides from wearing 1 piece of it
I think I tried it for a status effect DZ build years ago
i will try this against sparky
nods run up to an agent. your friend goes rogue you goo them with riot and run off?
I can't remember what build I used it in, it's been a few years. I deleted my DZ agent at some point but this is a leftover
You will still take damage
yeah, armor core, haz pro and status effect i was like ewww, what kind of pvp build is that? ๐น
fire wont hurt though right?
You won't have the status effect debuff but still take damage
Given you get to 90-something % HazPro
nodsif you get a outcast suicider guy come runnging to you. you'll get damage from the initial explosion he causes, but the fire won't apply to you or if it does it'd be a quick blip of it
If you insist on solo-ing Sparkle try a skill build, run out, aggro NPCs, run back inside and block the gate with a turret. Then use EMP to stun the dogs ๐
It appears you will not use a DPS build for this
i assume this is a brooklyn fight with a warhound that spewed fire when close and fire mortars when far away?
tried that mnay times. it does not work. he ignores turretn and comes directly to me
he did say use EMP to stun the dogs
EMP sticky or Pulse your choice
or if you want the tedious emp, bluescreen and hope you can just fire you stricky in the area and get it back every 3 seconds
i did a pfe build and still died
i know someone mentioned using bluescreen then shooting an emp into the air causes it to just got on a 3 second cool down. so not sure of the map, but i think it was inside so if it hits the ceiling and not any electrical things it'd do teh 3 second cool down bit
nods you'd have to a PFE + Haz Pro build to be able to withstand more than usual but you'll eventually die
What is your ign?
@bright trail ign=In Game Name. in this case since you have Ubisoft would be your ubisoft connect username
CS habit, lol. I feel you
that's me every weapon
finish encounter. used 1-5 bullets. reloads ok i'm ready for next encounter
i should make a cav build with cooler ๐น
could you imagine me just following you and soaking you with my nerf gun giving you 50% haz pro, then being out of cover giving you more haz pro? ๐น
Honestly I've never used it in group play. First time I actually used it for fun was when TS came out. Pre-stacking ๐
imagine my suprise when i saw a video they were doing that and i'm like "THAT'S GENIUS!"
but i rather have 2 damaging weapons in that build anyways
Yup
oh! this summer we get a side arm of Cooler ๐น
Am I crazy, or did these missions get moved closer from the edge of the map?
iirc the incursion released and they moved one of the raids to the bottom left to have space for the incursion
wait you're right
They moved them a while ago indeed
Iron Horse used to be below DZ West 
It's been there for a LONG time.
I don't know when it got moved
Playing cod zombie and casually reloading while zombies are sprinting
anyone else experience an lmg glitch? when i want to shoot a lock on the door i try to pop off just one bullet and then, without any bullets actually coming out, the sfx continues to play and the mag is emptying until i press the trigger again. more specifically, it seems to not like when i pull and release the trigger really fast for the one bullet. btw, im using xbox controller on pc.
not me, never seen that issue either honestly
aka, you're the first one i read having that issue
Lately I have audio glitches randomly with the Iron Lung, fits your description
nods i do have audio that'll be extremely quiet while firing then all of a sudden loud bass shooting sounds ๐น
Try in #lfg-playstation
I did but thank you
yes, i have it too, precisely as you described
i'm using mouse and keyboard and it also does that
does anybody know how to get in these 2 areas. same mission in new york. the first dragov mission
Look for yellow wall boxes, IIRC both are unlocked by them.
I believe they're up really high in both cases. The former are in the boss room.
So what's the consensus on the tipping scales set and bullet king? Seems like a no brainer to me because infinite ammo+ set that gets stronger the longer you fire but I keep seeing the set recommended with other weapons
Countdown has a new option in the social menu to return to BOO
Or at least, new to me because I saw the button for it when I went to leave a shit countdown match
Definitely the best, i use with gr9 steady handed though don't know why but i like it
it's more that BK isnt that great for crits due low oeverall stats and mods, but yeah set is strong
what is considered good dps for a striker build?
In the boss room there are two yellow fuse boxes high up on the ceiling. One is on the wall side, the other one is underneath the duct on the opposite side.
That unlocks the gate to the little cage where you'll find the key. Grab the key obviously and get to the window from the second screenshot. Circle around to the right and you'll see another fuse box. Shooting it will open the door to the left. Enter that room and right behind that same door is the last fuse box that unlocks the gate with the loot that you could see from the outside.
There are more loot boxes outside. On top of the green container in the outside courtyard when you exit the mission. Open that same container and you'll find another fuse box which will unlock a gate behind you with the last loot boxes
on what setup?
something like this, with 2 blue cores and worse rolls sadly
750-60k crits tops with those blue cores maybe
Strikerโs generally has excellent dps even with a pair of blues
that setup is awesome for those who seek survivability and dmg, obviously we recommend zero blue cores to squeeze as much dps as possible
Does mission difficulty affect where enemy spawns are?
afaik no
Is it just for Normal to Heroic and not Legendary?
sometimes there are unused spawns on lower difficulties that only get used with the increased amount of spawnwaves on higher difficulties
Do Skills Expertise level carry over to other characters?
what backpack is this
houndsman
cheers
Update delayed until Thursday eh? Aight then.
@rancid dirge Source?
Yeah Thursday maintenance from now on
If the source is "trust me bro", you're going to need to stop posting that.
I just saw the usual message saying "Invasion incoming" lol
Source is i trust dognuttzz but sure that's not a legit source so I'll stop posting
I would advise not to trust anyone who doesn't know how to spell doughnuts.
Project and scouts r on auto pilot what about event calender? Was it still 27th coming soon?
My game crashed, about to relog
Itโs said event active with no description and to stay tuned.
We got invisible event before gta 6 ๐
New features
Yeah lol
1 ๐ฃ
And the Xmas stuff is still present in the main menu. Let's wait for THU
The old how can we give them content without giving them content?
A timer is wrong? Devs are just so lazy, break out the pitchforks!
It's not like we just had a massively popular Winter Event with loads of free Exotics and Outfits.
Thereโs a difference between something being laughable and an insinuation to get pitchforks. Been through 10,000 hours in this game I donโt notice the speed bumps anymore.
1xp event 
I think all the things with ubisoft now delayed things so no fault of devs
It's about communication, silently changing the date in the article without a word, no official statement that the update has been postponed, leaving a wrong date in game with no explanation whatsoever.
People critiquing that in their way and that's fine.
We don't know whats happening behind the scenes or how the "restructuring" is affecting them, but a message or statement game related isn't too much to ask for imo.
Agreed, the company is in a crisis mode, not to mention the people that rely on it for their livelihood are dodging HR left and right.
hopefully some news today my tin foil hat is in overload atm aliens at north pole calling me latersssss
Ehโฆ the thing is, that was just my assumption, and it was based on the Survive Fest article being silently changed and the Store bundles being extended by two days.
It was obvious we were supposed to get the TU today, but since everything was moved to the 29th (both in-game and in the article), it's pretty logical to assume it was pushed back by two days. That's simply it.
I never said this was the case either. I just assumed we might be going back to Thursday maintenance, like in the good old days.
thanks doughnuts!!
Quick question , been days i didn't get any apparel in the loot meanwhile my friend that i play with get's them all day long, is there any limit per week you can get or something like that ?
thanks a lot
I donโt see any way to remove them.
I don't wanna remove them. I just wanna have them on right-side of armor like on the second pic
I donโt see any way to move them
Same. I tried everything in the settings. But it seems to be possible some how as you can see on the second pic
I donโt see any way
So apparently that guy who doesn't know how to spell doughnuts and thus should never be trusted was right after all.
spell it out for us man!
did vendor reset happen?
yes
sweet bagel ๐
Always prefered Altair's silent charisma over Ezio's banter
i am looking for some help with the scout mission were it looks like i need to Liberate 2 Control Points in Southwest but they have been liberate before the mission started how am i going to solve this
reset the map, clear it on someone elses map or on a different char, there are many options
Just reset the map.
reset?
Change global settings with Z. But you'll lose all your CPs.
@feral bronze im excited
Am i able to get any missing audio logs if i redo previous manhunts?
yes
named enemies drop them
so usually the boss and some other depending on the mission
^
the bulk of the Manhunt Missions have 2 Named Enemies per run, so it can take a while.
Doesn't really matter, as long i can finish my collections lol
Will the legacy manhunts affect my current scout progress?
Nah, the Legacy Manhunts are just the final mission.
think of them as like doing a random stronghold.
Nice. Finally, will the named enemies drop audio logs everytime until i have them all?
Each run, each will drop a single log.
He's on a quest to drop logs ๐
when i reconfigure an exotic weapon (roll a new one), do i lose expertise?
meaning does the new weapon preserve the expertise?
Yes it does
hey im grinding priority objโs and i have one that says to secure a supply drop but im yet to ever see one this whole time
Do you have any conquered districts in DC?
A district which is fully controlled by the JTF
If so, play the waiting game, eventually one will spawn there
If not, go capture all control points of a district
so i captured 3 districts and nth its been an hour
Update for my post about the shd box in sewer in civic center. yes the wall drops the key not the elite flamethrower guy.
24 hours passed huh?
@bold tiger ya I went down an it was reset got the box off wall dropped it an I got it.
sucks i couldn't help you as i did that so long ago and don't recall having that issue, or maybe i did 
does legendary summit increase the quality of targeted loot? i.e. if I have gear mods as my targeted loot, does playing on legendary increase my chances of getting a maxxed out mod?
Yes. Abusing boss farms is an effective way to farm mods
believe it's entirely RNG
Legendary summit does increase the drop quality. You're more likely to see very high roller mods compared to heroic/chall
i thought floor 10 farm was patched - theres a new method?
any 10th floor but floor 100 has been patched i believe
for items it works, not for hundreds of xp per min
It never was. Start the floor, kill the boss, leave 1 enemy left, grab loot, return back to lobby. Wash rinse repeat. My suggestion would be farm floor 90. You get 3 chances (3 bosses)
The only thing patched was the XP you earned for it
if you can manage floor 90 might be best for item farming considering you get multiple bosses there
Those are basically useless unless you can make a PFE build and play decently by forcefully pulling aggro
oh really? I do a lot of solo content so I thought it may be good for survivability
Killing faster = survivability
13% PFE is the rarest thing in the game. 12% is all you need if the build calls for it.
Div2 is more of FPS in sense than a traditional looter-shooter
sounds like i should just make a red build then huh
red is best but you can mix in blues as a crutch. pfe is almost never worth it tho.
pfe builds are the ultimate โIโm bad, I give upโ type builds
Even as a PGC enjoyer, I've still gotta disagree with you a bit here. I've got my favorite all-red PFE HE build with Matador and Intimidate chest, and I honestly can't imagine surviving without it in certain situations. These are namely the Keiko boss fight in random matchmade Manager Master Climax, and random matchmade Houndsman bounty. Basically the only two encounters I sometimes use it for.
With my usual group, I can handle it just fine with a regular Striker build. But in random matchmaking, sometimes you really don't have a choice.
For solo play tho, I'd agree with you. There's always room for improvement, and it's probably better to practice, die a ton of times with PGC, and learn, rather than defaulting to a somewhat comfy PFE build.
do you need an exotic to drop before you get the blueprint for it?
yeah, most times it is like that unless it's locked behind a project
Yes. If you get it as a drop or someone shares it with you, then you unlock the reconfiguration blueprint. For the crafting blueprint, though, you'll still need to run Retaliation.
so overdogs, ill need the item before the blueprint will drop, so stop trying to farm retal?
there are two kinds of blueprints we're talking about here
the reconfiguration blueprint and the crafting blueprint. the former comes from having the item, the latter comes from retal, and they don't affect each other
This^ + reconfiguration blueprints for Shroud and Overdogs are reported to be bugged. You can't get them even if you have the items. You can only have these blueprints if you unlocked them through the Season Track last season.
well feck i guess wont get them then unless i get lucky with countdown or summit
Retaliation is honestly the better option, especially if you keep running Hyena retal. That way, you've got a chance to get both the crafting BP for Overdogs and the gloves themselves from Targeted Loot.
thats what i thought but maybe i misunderstood what you all were saying ill keep farming retal thanks
With my usual group, I can handle it just fine with a regular Striker build. But in random matchmaking, sometimes you really don't have a choice.
I don't do it in random matchmaking. You're assuming that because you can't do something then I don't have a choice?
Running a PFE build is deciding "I can't do this, I give up". Which is fine. But don't try to mask that as some impossible task (by that I mean running red or hybrid or w/e).
It's actually a big problem in matchmaking. People assume something is impossible and just give up. So they run PFE or some other tank thing and make the entire mission harder for everyone else.
Does killing outcasts in dark zone incease agitation for retaliation?
Well, I said sometimes there's no choice, and I also said only for two specific encounters.
Matchmaking is definitely a huge issue. Beyond the people wearing god-knows-what builds with NBB, I've seen guys bringing tanks and PFE even to Heroic missions... which is just insane. Let alone Legendaries, where you basically have to carry everyone because they do absolutely nothing the whole mission in those builds. That's mostly why I quit playing with randoms. It just became unbearable.
So I'm not sure where you saw me trying to justify using PFE builds tbh.
Agree i do random matchmake tidal leg, see everyone red build completes it in 35 min, see people doing tank build and what not, takes 1 hour cz i give up fighting faster ๐คท๐ป
Anyone having issues with weekly projects not counting after completing things for the project? This is day 2 of it not working
You're saying that sometimes there's no choice but to run PFE in random matchmaking (your words). To me that sounds like a common justification for running PFE. Another common encounter people use is legendary tidal boss room.
I chose my words carefully. I'm not saying that running PFE is a bad choice for certain encounters. All I'm saying is that, when you run it, you're using it as a low skill crutch. I've used it as a low skill crutch. Back when I was learning legendary Tidal I would run a 6 blue crit adrush intimidate in the boss room. When I improved skill wise I stopped doing that and now I always run glass in that mission with any group (I usually matchmake).
My point is that there's never a case in this game when PFE is the only viable choice.
Heck I'll even recommend PFE builds for people that are struggling with master missions and just want to get through it for the rewards. It has utility. I just want PFE players to acknowledge they are bad at the game and need PFE to crutch them through content - because that's what is happening (not calling you a PFE player).
It's nuanced because some people have injuries that prevent them from playing more intense builds like reds. There was one person (here I think?) that was talking about playing with a controller on one hand due to an injury.
should i already interject and stop this from scalating saying to agree to disagree with eachother and how both are digging too much into it?
I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with PFE or using it but claiming it's necessary on any occasion is kinda wild
Why would it escalate?
Because it always scalate
PFE mindset 
I mean i could let you people continue and make pikachu surprised face when someone gets banned for steppingnover the line
I know it's 2026 but I think it's still possible to have discussions on the internet.
Yeah, in those specific encounters I mentioned, I personally had no choice. I'm not saying it wasn't a skill issue... it probably was. But at that moment, I had no idea what else to do, since I was almost insta-killed and no one else was dealing any damage. Worth mentioning, it was everyone's like 5thโ6th run of that Master mission ever, since it had just been released.
I don't see anything wrong with me running an all-red build with Intim/Adrush, which let me survive by proccing armor from Keikoโs decoys, take a bit more damage thanks to PFE, and still maintain decent DPS since it was full red with the right weapons. I agree with you that there's never really a case where PFE is the only viable choice, but maybe you could tell me, looking back, what other options I actually had at that moment as I honestly have no idea.
Not trying to justify anything, but for that specific situation, that build felt fine... being all red and thus dealing decent damage. Of course, if we're talking about the usual PFE builds with six blue cores and Catharsys like most people use, that's a total no-go for me as that kind of build mostly does nothing.
I know Kestrel, they know me... Why would anyone of us step over the line.
We're just casually discussing stuff.
In both cases i use full red build sometime i fail and others think what is this noob 11k shd guy but that's ok, other time its way faster so on average I save time
I carried those guys through the whole mission in a regular Striker but when I got killed for the fourth time at the boss fight, I realized I need to change something. ๐
I think Manager Master was one of my very last runs with randoms. Then I decided to quit.
Which would be better for Striker, Chameleon or Strega?
Yea I've been there. When it basically feels like you're soloing at 4 player scaling.
So if you think about it the only thing PFE is really buying you is taking damage. Teammates are not drawing enough aggro and since you're the biggest damage dealer the enemies all end up focusing on you. All it takes is two elites to push you at once in Master Manager for you to get deleted.
Solutions that I think are more beneficial:
- Headhunter with Mantis and a decoy. You pretty much get infinite decoy uptime as long as you keep tapping heads. Use a shotgun for robots when stacked up. The decoy solves the aggro problem completely which is why you're running PFE in the first place.
- Bluescreen Nego and using infinite sticky cheese into the sky. Even without sticky cheese the CC uptime should be really high and enough to keep aggro off of you.
- FI healer with Birdie's. I actually found this to be more effective than I thought because you're providing 3x 30% amps to the team Birdie's will keep them up. The usual Left/Scorpio fire grenade combos for some CC. If the team is really bad then even this won't be enough but it actually does the trick a lot of the time.
Chameleon is too much hassle that ain't really worth it, imo.
And those are all fallback options. As long as you position well then I think red striker is always doable. The hard part with missions like Master Manhunt is the spawns are absolutely brutal and there's never really a consistently safe position to fight from. Not until you memorize the spawns which for some reason took me a REALLY long time. IDK why.
i would rather wipe fast but progress fast than take 5 hours to get the clear
EP is still my baby but i think for rmm ill just go back to dps tbh
EP was nerfed in the past few patches unfortunately
Unintentionally through the icon bug
i know about the uhhh diminishing statuses but anything else?
Teammates have no clue what is CC'd and not
breh
Even I don't know what's CC'd sometimes as EP foam
I'll waste foam just in case because I have no idea if the enemy is peeking or foamed
its weird cuz i havent had any issues with it as of late
might have happened once or twice but wouldnt have been noticeable
Maybe I just don't run CC enough. It happens every time I try.
Shiiiet, lol. I just remembered that back then I actually thought about using Mantis HH and even mentioned it to my clanmate, so he ended up using it in the boss fight... Not sure why it didn't click in my head for my own run at the time.
Bluescreen Nego sounds like an amazing idea now. I don't think I could've ever thought of that back then. Same goes for FI, I guess... both seem like really solid strategies to try. Just not sure I'm up for running random Master Manager again, lol.
Thanks a ton for the tips anyway! Legend! ๐ซ
They appear to be of the opinion it's intended. Let's hope they actually "re-escalate" it
Oh you're not in the Ubisoft discord
Guys, I wanna ask how long can they regarding my character which was deleted in an accident. I have submitted a case in Ubisoft official website, but it has been a long time and there is still no progress.
I'll check it out. Thanks!
random question, is The Matador considered a DZ exclusive still? im trying to figure out how to get it after farming countdown for hours and realising it wont drop at all
Countdown doesn't drop it
survival fest ended???
It used to be a DZ exclusive, by now you'll get it from named item caches and you can farm for its blueprint (highly recommended) via Descent or Retaliations
are you sure about the retaliations part? i havent gotten a blueprint since like early december from retaliations ๐
i just kinda assumed i had all blueprints you could get from retaliations
I can show you my blueprint I got from Retaliations. 110% sure
what season was this? maybe they changed it
I got it last season when Retaliations were introduced. I farmed all blueprints available
that might be why then, i only started playing again this season and i wont get blueprints anymore from (heroic) retaliations
How many bps do you have?
479/662
Did you get the blueprint of a named item from retal?
I know you can craft the reconstructed caches that have named item caches
Using retal mats
But this is the first im hearing you getting as a drop
I was gonna ask if you bought Reconstructed Caches
just did that (didnt get the blueprint i wanted, nor the item) and i dont think ive ever gotten a named item blueprint outside of exotics
They don't drop, you need to buy Reconstructed Caches
looks like i got a lot of pain and misery ahead of me with descent then, jesus
No, keep doing Retaliations
Descent is an alternative but Retaliations are much faster and more rewarding overall
i guess i could try and find an alternative to The Matador, although i think that one might be named aswell
There might be some kind of misunderstanding here
nope, just thinking about other backpacks i could turn into a slightly worse version of The Matador (i only really need it to be red + blue and have the talent)
i need Adrenaline Rush on it basicly
You can farm the Matador BP tho through Retaliations. Otherwise farm the normal version in the meantime. Regular WH with AdRush
that doesnt make any sense though if i havent gotten a single blueprint in over a month when doing retaliations, i always get mats + exotic cache (and crafting those caches was so damn expensive its not even funny)
Not per se. They can farm resources from Retaliation that they can later spend on crafitng Reconstructed Caches.
Just use those resources you have to craft Reconstructed Caches... Or just go Descent.
What INF has been saying is the blueprint doesnt drop in retaliation you get the materials for reconstructed caches. Go to your crafting table. Look at the bottom right under exotics. At the bottom will be reconstructed caches
lmao and just because of that i got matador from one of the caches i crafted, but now im broke ๐
I mentioned that earlier
Ah, my bad. Didn't see that, sorry.
Just tried to get the confusion out of the way lol
Maybe made it worse unintentionally
They should've left Reconstructed Caches a Descent feature only. ๐
i would of cried if they did that, descent is the least fun i have in this game tbh
Yeah I also think it's been a good move with Retaliations
Descent is fun tbh... but only when it's Envy or at least Wrath. ๐คฃ
i havent even beaten Nemesis yet, not even gotten there
Locking items behind certain activities is normal for looter shooters but Descent isn't liked much
Descent is one of my fav modes
Thanks god we still have comms that drop only from there and also are available only at certain weeks.
Sure it has its followers, but the general sentiment seems to be opposing
@white wolf
Maybe bookmark this, it's made by @rough trench
@left ravine so it turns out i may be an idiot, i think the build ive been making has a W&H regular backpack with Adrenaline Rush since it has blue, blue, red
Idk what that means but people usually want a Matador
Attributes are all RNG
its a armor regen / hazard protection build, and i think the build itself is running a regular W&H backpack because of it being blue core
I also have several. Double crits and HazPro HSD are usually most sought-after
yeah thats basicly what i made but with re-rolling, although i lost out on the armor core because of it
If the two attributes are what you want you can roll the core to armor
sadly it wasnt, i think it was a yellow attribute
That's why it's highly recommended to get the blueprint. It takes long enough for one to drop 'naturally' and it's not guaranteed it has the rolls you want. By crafting you can get your rolls much faster, guaranteed win
sadly i cant make any more caches because im broke e-credits wise ๐
spent like 800k on them lol
Level up quick and spend the watch points on e-credits
Much faster than selling loot items
That shit made me broke too after I came back from a long break, lol
I didn't pay attention to the cache costs and crafted a bunch
50k per cache ๐
sadly no Matador blueprint, and im out of broken SHD watches + mats now
anyways, ty for explaining it to me and helping me out
There's no order, the blueprint drops are RNG. But, you get a named item plus a blueprint. Keep going, you'll get it ๐
my chat log is barely visible, does anyone know if there's a setting to fix it or is it a bug?
I think I've had that a few times too, but it kinda fixed itself. Try temporarily enabling high contrast chat in the Accessibility optionsโฆ who knows, maybe that might fix it.
nice username
Every time I see it, I get the overwhelming urge to subtly edit the spelling.
issue is comms r not sorted in any order so it would take huge time to figure out what i don't have and when i need to play to get it ๐คท๐ป good thing I don't care about comms
depends on how much you already have, think I started with less than 20 and I just do the weekly, there was one week, where I didn't get any new comms
I'm at 43 total now
78 is called Birdie
this week is 78-81
next week 82-85 and so on
I see the new event is using season xp, but will it progress season pass + event pass at the same time or will season pass be paused while the event is on?
should be both at the same time
is the 9th comm for this season (last chance) bugged?
doesn't actually play any audio
Likely could be due to the fact an update didn't take place yesterday but will take place tomorrow
I've recently had two retaliations end before the timer ended seemingly for no reason. I didn't go down, either. Anyone know what's causing this to happen? Is it a known bug?
No downs + deaths at all?
Not even once
It also depends how quickly you're scoring kills and clearing points
You have to sorta race and keep up your kills. Kill squads adds a metric load of time to your bar
I'm not 100% sure if it's a bug rn tho. I've found I've ran out of time plenty of times bc the fights drag on sometimes. Could it be maybe that?
I didn't run out of time either
๐คจ definitely odd. I'll have to run a few and see for myself
I've only ever had Delta's slap me while playing and it failed me multiple times
Here are two screenshots less than one second apart, you can see I still have time
It would appear you have 1 control point captured already, and it would also likely appear that is the last enemy of that last control point
never had this happen to me, that's weird
The OTHER enemy is likely a randomly spawned enemy that sometimes spawns as you're traveling between points
cant be, the CP inside the minimap is still white
There were two enemies left, but either way it shouldn't have ended as I still had plenty of time left
It's very odd for sure
Anyways it sounds like this isn't a common bug, is there anywhere I can report this to the developers? I can attach a video/screenshots like I did here
Personally I would see if you can replicate it
It's already happened to me twice, this time I only had two enemies left and it irritated me enough to come here and see what's going on
If you can consistently replicate it you should be able to hit up official Ubisoft discord and report the bug
I fully believe you. This is a head scratcher for sure
Just for humors sake, try to replicate it 1 more time but record it as clips and such (SS's are fine too). Part of me wonders something
Somebody somewhere found there's a time sync issue with retaliation back when it first released, it was in a PTS channel or so. This guy found a solution. I wonder if that's the issue you're having
What's the solution?
I'm digging everywhere for it. Unfortunately the channel the message was sent in here is no longer existing
Alright, I just submitted a ticket via Ubisoft's website but I doubt they'll do anything about it
Yeah just open a ticket. From what I remember, it's something to do with windows' time variable systems. It's something to do with the registry files or so
I can't remember 100% of the details but I fully remember talking to a user here about it. They did a deep dive on how to fix the issues
Idk if the mods here keep archives of the old channels but back when Retal got added is when we talked about it. Idk if a mod might be able to help with that
Could it be just fixing Windows' time keeping? It's notoriously bad and I remember looking into how to fix it in the past since it loses time every 3-6 months or so but I didn't deem it worth the effort at the time
It could very well be that. It's tickling my brain a bit. You're sparking memories
The guy at the time said Ubisoft support said to reset/reinstall windows to try and get it to fix but it's a literal Windows issue that the game chooses to hook itself into
It's SOMETHING to do with windows time keeping variables. Idk what specifically tho
What I would recommend is going down the rabbit hole of fully resetting your windows time services and doing a full resync. If that doesn't work, hope and pray Ubisoft support actually gives you an answer besides "just reinstall windows"
Another issue I've just found reports on for other games is the time service in windows is set to manual. This needs to be set to automatic. It's possible division is also the same, as you're seeing signs of the game timer being wrong. It's the same signs in other games
Sorry mods for the spam but trying to help ๐
I believe it is on automatic but when I get back to the computer I'll double check
I'll try fixing the time keeping thing on Windows and see if that helps
Hopefully your search will turn up something
I will see what more I uncover as I keep digging
What I'm curious on is if countdown's timer is bugged for you as well. I also wonder what would happen if you played retaliation with somebody else as host. Would you fail it then?
From what the guy who found the fix said in this server, retaliation's timer was wrong due to something with windows time keeping and time services. The info I've found is from threads on other games or Microsoft support themselves
How do I best utilize the decoy? Do I deploy it and then run off to the side or something?
Typically when enemies are hard focusing on you would be a good time to toss it. They'll auto aggro the decoy. Yes, it does allow you to move around, but you're more likely to be noticed as you get closer to enemies
Decoys are DPS players best friends
So not at the start of combat
You can if you want, that's acceptable. It's just a bit of a waste because they'll target the decoy and then you'll start hitting them and they'll just target you instead
I see
I typically throw a decoy when I have more than 2-3+ targeting me
So let's say you're trying to kill a flamed up rusher bomber as he runs towards you, and you have a lovely grenadier/thrower tossing a grenade at you and then you have the sniper way in the distance shooting you. Everything all at once. Would be a great time to toss a decoy
You can also use decoys to force cover-dependant enemies to stand up and get out of cover. Most use sticky bombs or chem launchers for that. Or grenades
Okay after some testing I think I figured it out
I didn't exactly know where the spawns on Jefferson Trade Center were so I got ambushed by a Hyena tank right behind me
So I panicked and threw down a decoy while running for my life
Drop decoy, wrap around and shoot him directly in the ass. He will be dead pronto
Well I didn't really do that because I'm not that good at the game yet
Still I managed to only get health gated
That's not bad honestly. You'll get it
Can you customize companion appearance?
No, there are three fixed archetypes.
Alright another question can you lock items to prevent accidental dismantling?
ac event pass (sorry leo for cutting you off)
The same they mentioned yesterday in the article.
yea we didn't know if there were filler caches, but it seems like there are none
and we have the required season xp for each event pass level
no filler caches but its still 15 lvl
shd donation = 4 lvl
weekly legendary with prio = 3 lvl
3 scout ~ 8 lvl
ac event sorted ๐
thanks, can you do the calc without the weekly legendary ๐
how does one get the courier backpack if they didnt get it back in season 11
even easier ive got all journey rewards to hand do it every season boom completed asap
redeem those on summit all directive legendary on a 5xp u get huge level as well
yo is the tinkerer mask in the general loot pool or how do i get it?
i know it was in crossroads manhunt but that's past now
No.
It's only available from the manhunt finale.
You can access it via the legacy manhunts tab
looking for it and dont see crossroads thats why i asked
Its called "The Manager" and it takes place at the Potomac Event Center
thanks a lot
Thats for Tempest
yea nvm realized it when I pressed send ๐
Everyone point in shame ๐ซต
๐๐
I'm guilty ๐คฃ roast me
Hop in, my AC is busted and we're back in the middle of Summertime DC
I cant wait to get diving off of buildings into haystacks
How quickly I am to jump ship from a terrible start of countdown:
Even worse with Legendary MMing rn
where can i get the middle one?
Dismantle guns
Deconstruct weapons.
Destroy firearms
Ok thanks i just return the game.
once i get the capacitor from summit, does it become part of the exotic pool?
i want a second one and not sure how to get it
there must be a reason why i have 7 ninja kneepads and 0 capacitor but i am not sure what it is
spongebob rainbow meme RNG
yeah, capacitor is one that becomes "unlocked" in regular pool after getting it once
similar to ridgeway that is another summit one
Whatโs the best way to get seasonal xp?
Manhunt scouts, season journey, priority objective strongholds, weekly projects
Waiting for a session xp boost week is also valid, there's often one near the end of the season
started for us already?
Its a screenshot from the stream. You can see Leo's head on the bottom right
Nah, it's tomorrow after the TU.
don't know who that is honestly, but yeah i saw the head but figured it was someone streaming it. not a ubisoft employee if he is one?
On the buttom left side of the screen, not shown here, was THE yannick
So yes lol
oh, those 2 are always together in strems aren't they?
so they show anything else?
Not much else
What has perfect overclock? ๐ค
so extra 2 days was probably setting up the streaming equipment and script?
Hermano backpack.
Div1 Definitive Edition and AC Collab. That's pretty much it.
Ok thanks ๐
curious about the definitive edition honestly, but i just imagine it's more like a bundle of div 1 and it's dlcs?
here i was hoping "we upgraded the graphics" wishful thinking i know
I think Div1 uses that Snowdrop version to its full potential. Not sure if there's any real room for improvement.
But yeah, they said no changes at all.
I'd just wish they would add a FOV slider for div1 ๐
Oh yes please!
i feel when i play div 1 from playing div 2 a lot. i feel they could upgrade the graphics in div 1 in some fashion, but that's just me i guess ๐น
never played division 1. is interface, controls gameplay similiar to division 2?
Patch notes are up
https://trello.com/c/iLGDA5JY/360-january-29-2026-y7s32-patch-notes
so those of us with quickstep can get closer to flash speeds? ๐ค
who is textiles vendor? is that danny, you learn from snitch or there is someone else
20% plus whatever quickstep gives us? ๐ค
that's the guy
Quickstep talent doesn't stack with other movement speed buffs.
yeah, pretty sure it says that in the description, but it'd be funny just for that it'd stack them
True. I wonder if it's gonna be bugged in any way or not, lol.
I hope they thought of it before making the event.
Its ubisoft lol
Lol imagine 40% movement speed bonus
we might glitch through a wall or floor ๐น
๐
+40% Hazard Protection : nice
Might be fast enough to run through walls
You can have that this season already
i am not doing the szn
ah yes, the Backfire striker builds will be in full force again
The additional HazPro with modifiers enabled is always nice
Absolutely yes, but! Usually with Overdrive events it's just the regular parameters we already have in the game, simply multiplied by x2 or something like that.
So as long as it's the usual movement speed buff that doesn't already stack, it's just being scaled up and nothing bad is going to happen. I believe it's not a completely new entity the event is using, it's the same one that's already in the game.
The amount of Backfire enjoyers during the event: ๐
Trueeee
Can't wait for the youtubers... BUILD THIS NOW!
then after the event "noobs, why am i dying to the bleed!" ๐น
Lol, yeah. I wonder if they ever realize that Backfire is played perfectly comfortably even without any HZP at all.
But I don't like bleeding ๐ฅบ
shhh, we don't want them streams know your secrets ๐น
exactly why i don't use it honestly
I only use it for long engagements where I still have enough accuracy to hit the broadside of a barn
think it'd be better if we used Visionario, Eagle's Grasp and whatever that holster with Accuracy on it?
meanwhile Slingshot enjoyers
Spot on is nice, but still not enough
There aren't any
DAAAAAAAAAAMMMMNNNN!! brutal
Check Reddit, it has a small fan base :p
because they realized that the accuracy is too bad even before reaching the optimal range ๐
Its just bad. It would've been neat if they buffed its accuracy to make it perform closer to an AR.
Make it similar to how handbasket is like a rifle.
you can't help them ๐
Do they count?
I've seen someone with a 120m range on Slingshot claiming themselves king of the hill because of it, without realizing that the max distance before your bullet literally dissolves in spacetime is 100m.
I loved seeing youtubers use the slingshot in the same range as a normal UMP and be like wow, this thing slaps...
Enough Reddit for today
Choose not to percieve
nah, you need moar ๐น
Imagine trying to explain stuff to someone on Reddit.
<insert slam head meme here>
sad thing i think they come here as well ๐น
Of course they do.
another overdrive on jan 30. they hate letting me speedrun ig
Ngl, I wanted to ping you when I saw them patch notes, lol.
Your Manning video was insane, man
Time to take some rest from the Zoo this weekend.
it's not the best run i could make... i have a better strat for boss room. the run I posted was so scuffed in boss
i was on track for a sub 26
Doesn't matter, that's nit-picking, I'm sure if you keep trying you'll be able to
Yeah, you'll definitely do it.
i say even do better. then get them naysayers "hacker!" ๐น
AverageCheater.
do we know the exact server shut down times?
imagine the old days you had to convert that on your own based on the times given ๐น
GMT
is there a norm for evaluating weapons or gear stats? for example if the primary damage is less than 14% does not worth to keep, just deconstruct, 150k for blue core, 13% for red etc.. i am trying to decide if i should stash some of the loot
Up your personal level of investment, since you can optmize stats and change one roll, it becomes more a matter of how much you can invest
i found optimization too costly, like increasing from 11 to 15 takes 7 or 8 attempts? i rather try to find something higher. this is my noob approach at the moment
we usually tell people to keep things where you are like 1 to maybe 3 optimizations away from max
my thinkging is some of the gears that are not used now can be hot next season right? if i have a very good stats of chainkiller, for example. should i stash it
nah, new seasons usually are to figure or saw pieces for the new brands/gearsets for the build. just some pieces of old are preferred for optimal builds
got it.
chainkiller is only good if you got Handling or Headshot damage on it so you can put whatever isn't on it on it. headshot damage? you'd want handling. handling, you'd want headshot damage. of course you can try to use other things on it for some odd build you got in mind, but it won't do as well as headshot damage and handling for them headhunter chains
yeah makes sense.
fun fact: it's actually not GMT anymore, and hasn't been for way longer than I initially assumed.
yeah i know. it is universal something right?
isn't it CET now?
UTC.
Coordinated Universal Time.
i do vaguely remember GMT used to be thrown around
Was taught at school for me, but then again so were hyphens and commas in numbers, so 
imagine my surprise with daylight savings times ๐น never recalled it, but as an adult was like wait why are we doing this? i don't remember this as a kid
To get a Red Core Fenris, Ceska, or Grupo with Crit Chance & Crit Damage & "Unbreakable" talent, shouid target loot chest or individual brands in countdown? AI says chest i think specific brand. what say you?
i'd do multiple runs with each of those targeted or choose one. those will be red cores regardless
brand right, not chest?
if you do chest you'll probably end up with gearsets and other brands you don't care for
there are 16 options if you say chest, if you say brand you have 6 slots
more than 16. you got gearsets, brandsets and exotics
but you go the way you want, i say brands would be much faster 
33 according to AI
i agree, should be brands
ai said 16 excluding sets and exotics
well, AI is probably adding in Yaahl and System Corruption both are pvp only so 
surprisingly no

yeah agreed
all of the brandsets are listed in the ๐ pinned-message over in #td2-build-advice, if you want a full list.
under "spreadsheet 2".
I am surpised Sokolov Concern has no chest piece. Someone should call Natalia
i imagine sokolov is in there, just not listed oddly enough
it does but its not inlcuded in the list of brands
am i understanding correctly that just running around with nimble holster won't do anything?
define "won't do anything"
wont proc the talent
it repairs your armor when you run, right?
yep, but it says "in cover-to-cover"
While moving, gain 5% armor regeneration per second. i thought that is what it said
only repairs as long as you're doing one cover to another
yes, it only works if you use the c2c mechanic
it's unironically really strong
it sounds bad ngl
just try it out, c2c is a good mechanic to use in hard content anyway
i saw a video where a guy cover to cover legendaries shooting at them ๐น
was kind of like "oh did you miss that?! let me cover to cover with these legenadry noobs hitting me on the way to my cover"
does hazard protection work with backfire?
yes
and how will it work?
will it decrease the damage i take or make it shorter (like i take all the damage faster)
what do you mean by work with?
makes it shorter
which reduces the damage you take, it's not like it compresses the same damage to fit in that shorter window
maybe backfires bleed isnt affected by hazard protection or sum
you either way just decrease the amount of bleeding it does or you nullify it if you have high enough haz pro/bleed resistence
no, it is affected
there's no gimmick to it, but if you wanna be most effective with it don't run any hazpro and just eat the bleed a few times, you'll be immune to it
so is it better for me to get more hazar protection or like armor regeneration or armor on kill
You get a bleed from from Backfire.
Hazpro/bleed rest helps to lessen the effect.
like i think 50% it'd be like a couple bleeding sounds and you stop
just use armor on kill you get for free from gunner
Just AoK works well enough
dang thats gonna be enough?
yes
bonus armor helps too
Just shooting faster and more helps
remember the bleed stacks with how many stacks you got before reloading, and if you spam bleed on yourself enough times you will be immune to it
bruh iw as gonna use the backpack that gives armor on kill too
Clutch isn't AoK
you also stop receiving bleed after you max out the stacks
it's a very bad version of it
it is, but requires i think Crit kills?
is it about same status effects not stacking on top of each other in this game?
It's just bad all around. The brandset bonus that gives AoK is better.
there's a status diminishing mechanic that nerfs the status if repeatedly applied
right palisade?
you get affected by it enough times, you become immune for a while
dang
it works as designed
npcs i think experience that as well
for better or for worse. for backfire it's better for us
for npcs it can be frustrating
it's why you're not suppose spam riot foams like nuts
does weapon handling increase rate of fire?
no
no, just stability, accuracy, weapon swap and reloading comes to mind
the very things Golden Bullet affects
tbf golden bullet does buff rof
when i list them i always feel like im missing some stats handling affects weapon wise
lmao wheres the mission?
what mission?
raids been pushed to bottom left of map
prolly in brooklyn or new york
they had to make room for Brooklyn ๐
im not seeing any lol
what do you think Iron Works and Airport are?
he needs faye lau manhunt tho
I killed her off lol
Lao where is iron?
United Iron Works = Ironhorse Raid
Washington National Airport = Dark HOurs Raid
The invasion needs that?
anyone know how to get the courier named backpack blueprint? I didnt play season 11
far as i remember raids don't have any prerequisites aside being level 40 to see them and run them
could be mistaken though. did mine long long long time ago
Reconstructed caches via Retaliations or Descent currrently
i vote do Retaliations
Descent can be rather monotonous and you may lose interest quickly ๐น i did
just did the mission and its not unlocking
You haven't finished invaded Camp White Oak.
It literally says on the left.
I did the manhunt itโs asking for dude
You have the wrong mission type. It doesn't ask for the manhunt but for the invaded mission.
Ah
The thing is... the map in the game is showing that certain mission type you have it set to at the moment.
You see, I changed the mission type and it also changed in the requirements. Now it's a manhunt.
But for invaded Strongholds you need to complete three invaded missions.
Weird it doesnโt auto swap it
Well, it's been like that since forever.
How do I get the Shroud reconfiguration BP if I didn't play last season
afaik it's bugged and there's no reconfig blueprint ๐
I have the weapon and Inaya is not selling it
What the helly....
Do you think the retaliations will drop it?
I think nothing will help us atm
a lot of us are stuck with whatever attribute our Shroud has
It is bugged, as well as the Overdogs reconfiguration blueprint.
If you didn't get it last season from the progress track, there's no way to get the blueprint.
The only way is to get the crafting BP from Retaliation, so you could craft another Shroud with different stats.
I am turning emo
oh wait you're right, crafting it might be the only way
I totally forgot about those blueprints
Is it genuinely hard to get a Hostage Rescue to spawn? I've had all CP capped for about an hour and I haven't seen one
Don't suppose anybody is online and would help me get two dz trophies?
If you do green activities they will be replaced by others
Man, been doing a lot of that too
I EVENTUALLY saw the handcuffs pop up, but it disappeared when I arrived. ๐
rescue convoy died maybe
Hmm
I'll have to try again later. I spent an hour or two running around that zone clearing greens and reds.
ARE WE FINALLY SPENDING THOSE TEXTILES INTO SOMETHING USEFUL? (exotic materials)
Thank you devs
am i finally getting carried?
uhm are u talking abt textile vendor? lol
well legacy caches
Indeed, dont need the exotics, need to deconstruct them!
This is huge
They firing on all cilinders
Well, don't forget the weekly purchase limit is only 2 caches and also the chance to get exotics is 25%.
Read latest patch notes #patch-notes message
Nothing to see here folks ๐ญ
hevent read them in a while
Popped in after logging off for 30 minutes and one was there!
maybe the real hostage rescue was iniside of you all along
Where is this ? Tell me Pls.
Funny
is the Last Chance comms bugged for anyone else? I don't hear any audio when trying to play it
Yeah it's bugged
I'm telling you, sth is up with your PC
cant be though if sonic is running at 60fps
iv even put all the graphics settings on low
First your strange latency issues, now this. Try checking a few things
ive reset everything accept my ip address
Idk your hardware setup, idk your OS, idk anything.
Did you try reinstalling the game?
thats the only thing i havent done yet
Maybe try that. Also check for new driver versions, in some cases older drivers work better for older games. Difficult to give advice
im reinstalling now
What would yall recommend the global difficulty to be?
high as you can handle
I prefer to keep on challenging for comfy open world
Considering im constantly sabotaging my own builds to level up some weird item proficiency
cross your fingers
didnt work
if it was a gpu driver issue wouldnt the gpu usage be higher or not utilized at all
Did you ever update your chipset drivers or BIOS?
Iโm on challenging rn and getting shredded, feels like Iโm playing Breakpoint on extreme mode lmao
@nocturne siren help this guy with his setting
Nice. What hardware monitoring app is that? Not seen before
its the steam overlay
Wow that seems to have changed quite a bit since I tested it quite a while ago, thx
Is chinese version watch interesting?
The expertise stuff is kinda grindy or am I not doing something right ?
yeah it is
wont be long now till chat full off are the servers down i cant play lol
Considering its Thursday update thats definitely gonna happen
Is there an assassin's creed collaboration coming or did that already happen?
Live in a couple of hours after the maintenance is done.
Oh noice, and the perm access of the event costs how much we talking? Just preparing myself mentally if I want it or not
1000 prem I'd guess.
Strongold prios + weekly SHD requisition projects on all characters.
Here's the table with SXP made by Ssoap:
https://1drv.ms/x/c/2ea73ccacee5acff/EaFYLfpiE5hJtcXTHSGXAQIBmma9eqg9s8DrhRCatIV4Bg
Prios?
Priority Objectives
Ah alright, should be easy
Will run on challenging just in case cuz it's easier for me to finish
or u can run on heroic and get people to help u via matchmake
R the servers back?
anyone have any images of black flag outfit
i know its in the trailer
from ac collab
no
Do projects share between characters? lets say if I make 4 character and run the weekly legendary 4 times, could I get the reward four times?
and what about Journey missions?
projects are not shared between characters. so the weeklies like legendary, shd requisition, etc are all doable per character. I don't think there's exceptions to that
account wide
recent returner to the game, i hear i missed out on one of the best handguns for getting around, been told some people may of banked a lot of the bounties?
Kinda curious as I'm new, what's the interest of having multiple characters ?
Resources, projects, materials... You also can't fit all useful builds on one characters.
I have 37 builds, for instance, and need three characters for this.
More inventory space free exotic from shd project and ez 4 season lvl via shd project in event like this
Ohh ok so crates you get from 1 caracter can be opened by another ?
How much does it cost to buy individual event ranks?
that option doesn't seem to be available this time, just 800 credits for the Premium level
Ah okay thanks
Find someone with houndsman bounties. The quickstep still drops
where is this event in timeline?
Before AC.
good thing low lvl players now don't have to defeat a hunter to get it, they can easily get from hounds
I wonder why it's not cheesable anymore.
Have to run from the safehouse each time, meh.
they dont want people to save it i'm sure some selling it xD
yes, the most time you take is figuring out which way you want to get your gear/weapons/skills/specializations to proficient
๐ค hmmm

Hey guys, can anyone hop in a call with me and help me in the game? Used to play years ago but not really sure where to start if im honest
Why do you want to troll us new people? ๐
cause someone will come in "this means we have an easier time getting these weapons right?"
Hihi, I was thinking that but didn't write it here
kvd might have already uploaded ๐คฃ
would you look at that! a 5X xp event
this shit had me excited for a second until I saw season ๐ฅน
It's 5x Season XP event, not SHD.
do you need level 40 to get the assassins creed things?
Yeah.
aw.. any tips to level up fast im at 28
The event goes two weeks. Should be enough time to reach 40 and get all event items comfortably.
You could boost to 40 if you have the BfB DLC
@fierce basin #ask-td2-community message
Good to know thanks Boss! 
how does the boosting work
you either A: play tutorial until you hit the white house. goto store and find the boost you want to use. you'll be the level and in the white house or
you create a new agent and boost to 30 or 40 which puts you either in NY to do the tutorial there or to Brooklyn and do a tutorial there
Are there any flashlight attachments for rifles and such? Some of the rooms are hella dark
just pistol
if we had companions outside of true sons, who would be the worst and best companion from each different faction and class besides black tusk
They'd all suck :p
Scorcher would be nice for CC, outcast rusher would be the worst Lmao
All the other ones are pretty boring tbh
Can i farm for shroud in countdown once i got the blueprint or do i have to craft shroud first
