[bold tiger]

ah 😹

[slim elk]

Im not that OG lmfao
I started playing Feb 2024 😆

[bold tiger]

you're OG just don't know yet 😹

i youtubed it but i think i got a different bounty and they didn't explaing how they got it. just they were at the beginning of it and ran it sort of thing

one was 7 years old, another 6 years old another seemed to be distracted and recorded them being distracted 😹 but yeah i couldn't figure out how they got it. best bet is just spamming public executions, hostage rescues and maybe snitch

yeah, no luck on having the bounty to share. got a crap ton of black tucks holy hell

[wide patrol]

how do i get turmoil ?

[fickle ravine]

you can't

[wide patrol]

ah ok ty

[fickle ravine]

wait until next christmas

[wide patrol]

got it ^_^

[slim elk]

no need to wait that much, Stretch goals from next season are closer

[bold tiger]

4ish months we might get a stretch goal where you can probably get it, but it might be 100+ caches

[fickle ravine]

yeah but good luck getting it honestly

might as well hit the casino

[slim elk]

I dont need more, I already got them

[fickle ravine]

okay i'm aware it could be worse, you could be hoping for a ravenous in vain

[bold tiger]

🤔 april fools coming around. maybe you'll get all the exotics you've wanted 😹

[cinder cave]

Can someone give me a quick rundown on the snitch and the best way to manipulate their spawn?

[bold tiger]

yeah, i was looking at your picture and it showed black tusk, but the videos i saw were like hyenas

[fickle ravine]

if i see someone misspell memento as "momento" again i'm going to answer their question about the "momento" with a technically correct answer

"how good is the momento?"
"you can't even equip it lmao"

"how do i get the momento?"
"wait until april fools"

[bold tiger]

i google snitch map. i try the national bond armory enterance and run a long way through potomac park to a statue just north of the most northwestern dz enterence. had no luck so i tried american history and there he was

[cinder cave]

Alright thanks

[bold tiger]

yeah i tried to correct them, still spelt momento

[cinder cave]

Is there genuinely no more optimised way than running around like an idiot across 30+ points of interests to find this guy?

[bold tiger]

i just goto 2 spots. not spawned log off and log back on and keep checking

[mellow trout]

They'll correct it in a momento

[fickle ravine]

that usually doesn't happen on the regular

[bold tiger]

you don't know how i wanted to troll new players. Get 2 little horns and you get a quest to combine the 2 into big horn 😹

[cinder cave]

Tried logging on and off at "popular" locations and nothing (repeatedly)

[bold tiger]

nods like i said i did that on the i look for and finally just picked another spot and hey there he was

[stray cradle]

What's your least favorite normal gun in the game (non named or exotic)?

[cinder cave]

Alright I give up this is just beyond stupid

[stray cradle]

DZ East checkpoint Charlie, run outside (not into the DZ btw) and up a ladder on the building to the right

If he's not there, relog and do it again. You should find him within like 2-3 tries

There's a couple places I find him, but that one is notably faster than others

[jagged meadow]

hey i just bought the ultimate version on steam and i went to brooklyn for the level 40 boost but the game is bugged or something because its still making me complete the story

[slim elk]

you could've used the boost without having to complete the DLC or anything 😆

you just have to go to the Store > Add-Ons > Lvl 40 boost
it uses the boost and it leaves you in DC

[jagged meadow]

i didnt use the boost it used itself when im loaded into brooklyn like the youtube video told me

[slim elk]

so you only wanted to use the boost and not go to BfB?

[jagged meadow]

no

i wanted everything completed

isnt that the point

[slim elk]

well, you still have to complete the DLCs to get their exclusive skills and shi

[jagged meadow]

so the boost doesnt auto complete the dlcs....

this is my progress after leaving brooklyn mind you i went staight there from dc havent played anything else

[shrewd token]

What's the middle thing?

[fickle ravine]

seasonal modifiers

we will have one next month

[shrewd token]

ok!

[jagged meadow]

does anyone know why it didnt complete the main story for brookyn and new york

[wide bay]

what is "it" in this case?

[river spindle]

Its the global Modifier

[jagged meadow]

as i stated before i bought the ultimate version yesterday and the level 40 boost did not complete both dlcs

[wide bay]

That's correct, it doesn't. The boost only completes the main game for you. Nor does it unlock the exterior missions (like the zoo or pentagon).

[jagged meadow]

ah ok

i did all the first dlc on playstation years ago so i guess ill just have to run through everthing again

[wide bay]

Nobody is forcing you 🙂 just play what you like playing. What's the point of a video game otherwise?

[jagged meadow]

lol

no point in not doing them so i will

[frigid rose]

Does anyone have fast pistol? An can it drop in count down if u have it as targeted loot?

[strange harbor]

Yes and no. Ask in #lfg-pc for quickstep bounty to get one.

[devout arrow]

I asume this is a bug?
Shotgun core have 2 new sniper attributes lol

[strange harbor]

yeah it's a bug

[devout arrow]

Also found bp and chest new attributes armor and shotguns dta, what about these?

[strange harbor]

also bug

[devout arrow]

Thx

[sleek gulch]

where can i use this token

[nocturne siren]

Countdown vendor, it's just to the right where you talk to the lady that puts you into Conflict

[half karma]

does anyone know if there's a mission or something in this area? it's where a black tusk bounty was and one of the last named enemies is up a rope but there's like a bunch of enemies just right next to the rope and it seems like there should be another way up there

there's an ammo box as well near a door that doesn't seem to open

[bold tiger]

think sometimes there's a bounty there. you'd go to the roof for them

[white schooner]

What is farming summit floor 100 good for? I see people doing it and I’m curious

[north marsh]

Tempest exotic farm

[empty moth]

chameleon seems to not have chameleons effects anymore?

[limber dove]

It’s being looked into

[empty moth]

is it visual only or does it actually not have anything rn

[limber dove]

Uhhh not sure tbh I imagine it’s visual

[delicate hazel]

hello
when i use tinkering and transfer stat does unlimited??

[strange harbor]

Can transfer one attribute of one item but unlimited number of times

[delicate hazel]

what????

[strange harbor]

You see the attributes of items?

[echo parcel]

hello, i talked to snitch and finished the bounty, but no cassie mendoza logo in my map?

[delicate hazel]

can i use it unlimited or i can use it for 1 time or 3\

[remote wadi]

Anyone have the Bounty for Quickstep pistol please?

[limber dove]

Once you extract an attribute, you can use it on as many other weapons as you want

[left ravine]

Report this to the official Ubisoft support. This issue, amongst several others, is not yet acknowledged by them. So, we need to report it more

[strange harbor]

But one attribute of one item only

[limber dove]

This explains it

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tc2UDqrX0vBw-f18opih3idHlueXN7ca2HSEP_yAZDM/edit?usp=drivesdk

Scroll down

[left ravine]

Try #lfg-pc or the GCROCK discord

[minor ferry]

Which master missions are generally harder? Wanna find something else difficult to play that isnt just legendary missions

[delicate hazel]

Thx bro

[left ravine]

Play them all and judge yourself I'd say

[jaunty oyster]

Tidal Basin is hard but fun
The new one at iron horse is hard but has a bunch of timed sections so without good teams u may fail
the theo Parnell one was ok

[jaunty oyster]

Also just this get all the exotics from them so

[minor ferry]

Not an exotic collector, I just go for the good ones worth getting. For example i already did the one that gives Birdie, the newest one (Sherrif), The Manager, etc

[nimble spruce]

Are you level 40?

[minor ferry]

But secondary to getting the good exotics is having fun playing the more challenging master missions that dont need a 3-4 man team to do

[jaunty oyster]

Most of them need teams cus they have mechanics that are better with more than one person

[minor ferry]

ah I gotcha

Do the other ones give a named item or something like that?

why u delete ur msg?

[jaunty oyster]

Master missions are relatively new we only had them for the last five seasons

[minor ferry]

oh right climax missions have existed longer than master mode

do the older climax missions give any exclusive reward from those missions only?

[jaunty oyster]

A few of them give skill variants

[minor ferry]

riiight right i remember this. uhhh is there a list of climax mission rewards anywhere

cant find a list when I google for it

[jaunty oyster]

No idea lol

A bunch of climax missions have hunters to

So u can get unique masks

[echo parcel]

34

[nimble spruce]

That's probably why then

[balmy garden]

new level 40, any tips on how to farm striker gear? or even a link to a helpful yt video on it 🙂

[nimble spruce]

Set target loot to striker, matchmake for countdown on challenging difficulty

[limber dove]

Lvl 40 starter guide - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1Tc2UDqrX0vBw-f18opih3idHlueXN7ca2HSEP_yAZDM/edit?usp=drivesdk

[balmy garden]

thanks mate

[opaque wasp]

im a level 5, how do i get keys for the boxes scattered around the map?

[molten flame]

depends on the factions if im not mistaken?

[opaque wasp]

what about hyena boxes?

[molten flame]

just ran a quick google search not sure if this is still helpful
Underground by the Lincoln Memorial on the south side of the pool has about 6-8 key boxes.

[molten flame]

i hope that helps

[nimble spruce]

Faction bosses drop them, and there are key boxes on the walls in many sewers that drop a random key

[molten flame]

i remember them in sewers but ive been away from the game for a while so my bad

[nimble spruce]

No need to apologise, I was just adding additional info.
There's a load in the sewers near the ivy tunnel CP too but at lvl 5 they won't be anywhere near that area yet

[viral crown]

i just finished the embassy classified assignemtn and im missing the single comm ontop of the boxes, is there really no way back from the helicopter area qwq? i have to wait an entire week to finish the collection

[nimble spruce]

You could try asking in #lfg-pc if someone else is willing to run it, and join them.

Or use a different character

[viral crown]

you mean i am locked out of it?!?!

wait i found a way back thank gorp

[mellow trout]

Classified assignments can only be run once a week

[viral crown]

was meaning locked out of the previous area so i could go back, thankfully not

also jfc jumpscared by that outcast coming out of the bedroom

[odd pivot]

I cant seem to reconfigure my exotics, i have all the materials, my inventory isnt full and the right side when crafting seems to blacked out.

[pseudo tundra]

is the item marked as favourite?

[odd pivot]

nope

[mellow trout]

I'm assuming you're not level 40?

[limber dove]

Do you have the recalibration blueprint

[mellow trout]

It's an old mechanic from when world tiers were a thing iirc

[odd pivot]

yep, one thing tho i have two of the same exotic weapon

[mellow trout]

Bounty networks or something, they're connected

[limber dove]

A separate thing you have to buy from Inaya (vendor next to crafting station in White House)

[mellow trout]

Which weapon is it out of curiosity

[limber dove]

Are you looking in the exotic recalibration section of the crafting table

[odd pivot]

yes

[limber dove]

Can you send a picture of this

[odd pivot]

the colour of the level is red like the background.

[odd pivot]

Ok

[nimble spruce]

Basically you just do easier bounties to unlock harder ones that are connected to them - but the system changes at lvl 40 so not really worth worrying about

[viral crown]

kettle why do i kinda like the chinook heli they made for div2

[mellow trout]

I have a feeling youre trying to reconfig the level 1 exotics

[odd pivot]

nope they are 29 and the other is 30,

idk if that has anything to do with it

[mellow trout]

Best to just attach a picture

[nimble spruce]

You definitely reconfiguring (crafting menu, weapons section) and not recalibrating?

[limber dove]

Where is it tell you that you can’t reconfigure

[odd pivot]

i click, but nothing happen

[nimble spruce]

Maybe need to upgrade your bench to high end, can't do that until lvl 40

[odd pivot]

the select item is blacked out

[molten flame]

also quick question does this game transfer dlcs like if you have them on xbox to pc would it transfer?

[mellow trout]

No

[molten flame]

figured ty

[mellow trout]

No cross save/progression

[limber dove]

Have you tried restarting the game

[odd pivot]

how do u do that?

[mellow trout]

Looks like a level issue

[odd pivot]

will do now

[nimble spruce]

Once you reach level 40 go interact with the crafting bench and it'll give you the option

[odd pivot]

prolly is that, ty for the help

i got to 34 after completing one fourth of the warlords dlc, was thinking bout upgrades if possible

[nimble spruce]

I'm just guessing but it seems likely

Not much point in upgrading exotics until you reach lvl 40 anyway, you'll only outgrow them in a couple of levels

[odd pivot]

also is having 54 exotic components alot?

i got a ton of them like way back when only the base game existed

[limber dove]

I can’t find anything online about reconfiguring having a crafting table level requirement but it’s worth a shot

[nimble spruce]

In the late endgame you'll need hundreds for expertise, so not really although it's a lot for where you are now

[limber dove]

Can you reconfigure any other exotics @odd pivot ?

[idle jetty]

The real question is:
do you have all the rolls you want maxed on your weapons and expertise at the level you want?

[odd pivot]

nope all the select item buttons are blacked out, with the right side being black

[limber dove]

Do you have the exotics favorited

[opaque current]

heyo, how do i start vanguard manhunt through legacy? first time doing it

[odd pivot]

nope

[limber dove]

Hmmmmm yeah restart and if that doesn’t work try again at lvl 40/after you upgrade crafting station

[odd pivot]

the exotic i have equiped is the pestilence, and im trying to reconfigure nemesis.

[unique jetty]

Does this build need to have the max possible stats to make it work ?

[limpid sequoia]

not at all

[limber dove]

Can you hover over nemesis and show us the whole screen

[mellow trout]

There's a legacy manhunt menu within the manhunt menu

[odd pivot]

restarted the game

[limber dove]

It’s kinda hard to see but I imagine you have enough credits as well?

[odd pivot]

yes more then 979 creds

[odd pivot]

thats prolly cuz the right is blacked out when u cant craft something?

[limber dove]

Think I figured it out

You can reconfigure non lvl 40 exotics up to level 40, but I don’t believe you can reconfigure them to a level below 40

[mellow trout]

You used to be able to get them down to level 30

Not sure if that's still the case

[odd pivot]

so like naval said get to level 40 and check again

[limber dove]

As long as wade isn’t encountering a specific bug, my guess is they raised the reconfig level to 40 when they gave all players access to 40

[viral crown]

anyone know when kenly college is coming back? wanting to finish up my field data

[limber dove]

Ya, you’re not too far off

[keen stump]

Is there any chance to get the houndmaster bounty anymore?

[bold tiger]

if you find a kind soul willing to share that to you beyond that no

[inner tendon]

@keen stump You can try and find someone down in #lfg-pc to help you get it, but it's getting rarer as time goes on.

[keen stump]

I assumed that was the case, I guess I will try because I sadly missed out on that event

[inner tendon]

It will be back eventually in another Event, count on it.

[bold tiger]

it's highly popular. we migth get an easter houndsman 😹

[keen stump]

I sure hope so, I really like the attire as well

[inner tendon]

I hope the rabbit outfits come back, those were fun.

[bold tiger]

rabbit season? yeah i did like that. what was the premium one? fire season?

[daring radish]

Does an item have to be lvl 40 in order to upgrade the expertise on it?

[inner tendon]

@daring radish Everything you collect below Lvl 40 is trash, except for Exotics.
Think of anything that's not Lvl 40 as the tutorial of div2.

[bold tiger]

no need to ask multiple channels. 1 is fine. unless of course the first channel you ask has a lot of conversations going on

[daring radish]

Ok thankyou for letting me know

No one got back to me in the first channel

[left ravine]

You waited two minutes lol

[bold tiger]

nods i saw it but wasn't sure how to answer it aside like rivens said anything below 40 is kind of a nerf. even though ew can use 31-39 gear to put in our library so i'm not sure if it gets limited in any other way especially damage wise for weapons

[minor ferry]

How do I know Im at max stacks for Bittersweet?? Is there a hud indicator or icon?

[left ravine]

^ he's posting in two channels simultaneously

🫠

[minor ferry]

whoops i actually forgot i pressed send in build

[left ravine]

Idk, I haven't actually used that rifle. Maybe someone else knows

[white schooner]

I didn’t know there was chests I needed to open in summit to get the exotic chest. Does this mean I have to start all over from floor 1?

[minor ferry]

@snow cargo Would u happen to know?

[fickle ravine]

pinging people randomly is liable to piss them off

[bold tiger]

doubt he touched the gun. probably read the talent and was like 🤮

[minor ferry]

Chow is a designated advice man and I very much assume he is alright with it as he usually is

[fickle ravine]

yeah on that note bittersweet is another one of those very meh exotics

[minor ferry]

I know

will still use it cause i have a certain build from Ikia with it

[bold tiger]

<-tried a bitter sweat hsd/repair skills and found it extremely underwhelming

[pseudo tundra]

there should be an icon on the bottom of health and ammo showing bittersweet stacks

and yeah dont ping at random

[slow trail]

How can I get heroic bounties? To try and get the chameleon

[limber dove]

Target assault rifles in countdown

Or retaliation or summit

[slow trail]

I did try that for a while but read it drops better on hyena bounties, not sure how true that is though

[kind cloak]

Trying to get the Tinker Mask solo is proving difficult…

[bright trail]

do hostage rescue missions

they give heroic bounties if i remember correctly

[bold tiger]

even with assault Global event on?

[bold tiger]

they can, but they can also give out normal to challenging too i believe?

[kind cloak]

Global events you say…?

[bold tiger]

yes, assault is close range 200% damage increase

[kind cloak]

Do I need to activate it or is it automatic?

[pseudo tundra]

you have to manually activate it

@bold tiger #td2-general-chat message

[torn canopy]

can i get ninjabike backpack in countdown ??

[bold tiger]

yes

[torn canopy]

ty good sir

[bold tiger]

if it's not for a pvp build. prepare for a hazing if you ask for a pve build for it

[torn canopy]

im just going for a 3 piece of tipping scales and lengomo

[bold tiger]

just preparing you. so mentally you can know what's coming

[slim elk]

you're nerfing yourself if you think that build is good

[coral lagoon]

Any tips for “eliminate hostiles with weak point kills” this one is driving my crazy. I only have 99 out of 150 so far

[torn canopy]

thats ok im here to have fun

[bold tiger]

99 of 50? you met it and then some though? unless you mistyped the number?

i've been doing Lincoln for mine

[coral lagoon]

Miss typed 😂

[slim elk]

Look. The thing with TS is that you NEED the backpack talent. Ninjabike CANNOT replace it, so if you want your build to at least work correctly, I suggest not using Ninjabike. It's not just about fun, it's about how nerfed you want to be

[limber dove]

Tipping scale backpack is probably more fun

[humble swan]

guys i dont understnad something how i can max out my critical change on my gyns

i rly dont get it...

[left ravine]

Weapon mods

If I understand your question right

[bold tiger]

oh you mean that. i thought you meant the stats on your guns 😹 was about to accuse you of not doing that very thing

[left ravine]

You really gain nothing from that build constellation, as mentioned, you lose out on damage. Just saying. Getting enemies down more efficient and dying less is more fun, no? 🙂

[torn canopy]

wouldnt positioning and skill use achieve that ??

[left ravine]

To a degree, yes. But not as efficient. Positioning is always important

[snow cargo]

Chest and BP talents are very powerful in this game. NBB doesn't make up for that loss.
TS BP is kinda of a must it's give soo much more than NBB can ever give.

[left ravine]

You probably see "oh wow, +30% LMG damage", I'm sure that is what you are going for. But that is not how the damage calculation works

[snow cargo]

The TS BP is like 4 to 7 CHD right?

[left ravine]

3 to 5% per stack

[limber dove]

?

[snow cargo]

Ty. All I is remembers is 350% CHD

[limber dove]

Did they nerf it

[limber dove]

Huh someone should update that

[snow cargo]

Um..

[left ravine]

The screenshot is from right now

[torn canopy]

doesnt nbb give the 4 piece bonus though ??

[snow cargo]

Wait that's coco

[limber dove]

Reject the evidence of your eyes and ears

[left ravine]

I AM AN IDIOT

[limber dove]

Wait lmao

[left ravine]

4 to 7% for TS

[limber dove]

Mods, this guy

[bold tiger]

you're undersestimating how power backpack talents offer damage wise

[left ravine]

Apoologies 😂

[snow cargo]

It helps +1 to set a bonus.

Which gives more stats.

[limber dove]

Yes but that specific bonus is less impactful than other bonuses you could get from an equal commitment

[snow cargo]

Here's an example of NBB giving a lot more stats but doing less dmg.

[lean violet]

i am trying to get the shd chase in the underground in the civic center in realism mode but the key to the door doesnt drop

[bold tiger]

seems like a known bug if that's the kill chunga for key and it doesn't drop

[torn canopy]

so like a tipping scales bp would be more beneficial

[fickle ravine]

yes

[left ravine]

Any backpack with damage talent is > NBB

[torn canopy]

so shouldi go 4pc tipping anmd 3 piece lengmo

[bold tiger]

only reason to use NBB is in PVP builds

[bold tiger]

can't do 3 lengmo

[fickle ravine]

the coveted 7th piece of armor

[humble swan]

how i can upgrade this ones that i mean..

[torn canopy]

whats that ??

[fickle ravine]

it doesn't exist lol

[left ravine]

Here is an example build

[torn canopy]

im currently using a maxed tardigrade

[slim elk]

You gotta extract a higher roll to your Library before being able to optimize that slot to max

[bold tiger]

extract more stats in your library first

[humble swan]

i dont get it im new..

[slim elk]

take a look at this Lvl40 Starters Guide

[torn canopy]

oh yeah lol i keep forgetting its 6 piece not 7

[ripe helm]

no I mean which expansion is that, sorry dumb question im js new trying to get hang of the game

[torn canopy]

i keep thinknig boots are a piece of equipemnt because i always see gloves

[left ravine]

Here is an example build with 3pcs Lengmo, specifically for the Pestilence LMG

[ripe helm]

HOW do u get all that good gear

[torn canopy]

hacks

[bold tiger]

i already miss my ambush 3 mill tic pestilence

[slim elk]

YOU DON'T WANNA KNOW

[ripe helm]

😭

[left ravine]

Bribes

[ripe helm]

crazy

[left ravine]

JK, just play the game

[slim elk]

it's a pain in the backdoor to get double crit lengmo pieces

[ripe helm]

shii I js opened my wallet for bribes 😔

[left ravine]

😂

[torn canopy]

sit at the mcdonalds street corner on 37th street and a man will rollup in a ford f450 youll do him a favor and he will give you a maxxed chest piece

[ripe helm]

now these are real instructions 🫡

[snow cargo]

Funny enough I had an easier time with Backbone farm than the rest.

[slim elk]

I almost choked 🤣

[inner tendon]

Alternatively: satanic sacrifices are much quicker, and you don't need to leave the house!

[ripe helm]

best one yet

[slim elk]

I mean it is easier

[inner tendon]

We praise Lootcifer on this Server.

[left ravine]

Same here, still missing a GC chest

Not really needed but cool to have

[torn canopy]

a man of god knows that quality comes suffering

[inner tendon]

You can worship RNGesus if you like, but Lootcifer has cooler Masks.

[torn canopy]

i have to agree them masks are cool

[bold tiger]

i agree it was easier getting that

[torn canopy]

im used to the pain of rngesus

[viral crown]

rq, the regular houndsman outfit (not the bloody one) can be bought in the store correct? if not im liable to cry

[left ravine]

Yes but not atm. You missed it by a week or two

[viral crown]

oh thank gorp

[slim elk]

ye, but you'll have to wait

[torn canopy]

is tardigrade still considered a good pick

[viral crown]

i love hunter drippy!! hoping the recruiter comes back but also not since its pretty spenny and i need to save up for the credits

[left ravine]

For a team support build, yes

[bold tiger]

far as i remember was never a usuable exotic

[torn canopy]

i just like the oh i lost all my armor boom my armor is all back

[inner tendon]

Tardi saved my bacon back when I first tried a DH.

[viral crown]

how spenny? cant see anything about it gorp

[left ravine]

I don't remember

Probably not the cheapest one in the store 😄

[viral crown]

gorp i've got like 3 hunter outfits i want and im saving up for lmao

death roll (lmb core)
houndsman (i desperately need the wolf hunter mask)
and recruiter (vibes based matchmaking)

[left ravine]

Recruiter bundle seems to be a best-seller in the store judging by the amount of times I've seen it in the store

[inner tendon]

I appreciate the ones that are in pieces, so I can mix+match.

I have to find a way to wear my OG Outcast hammer pants with literally every outfit combo.

the shinier hammer just doesn't have the same vibe.

[bold tiger]

like MC Hammer pants?

[inner tendon]

No like, a literal hammer is on the belt.

[bold tiger]

ah XD you said hammer pants my mind instantly went to MC Hammer 😹 my bad

[inner tendon]

I don't think we have any of those in the game, but I would buy them if we did.

[bold tiger]

same even if they get MC hammer's OK to put in his icon dance "stop, hammer time" 😹

[inner tendon]

@bold tiger because I have to spread the majesty, I present to you: hammer pants.

[bold tiger]

oh right! i probably got it myself

[keen stump]

I would love some more faction outfits

[bold tiger]

shame we can't pull it out and throw it out 😹

[muted ether]

could use a sandman shotgun and pretend

[inner tendon]

We actually had an "OG faction apparel event" back along with the release of Tidal Basin in 2019, it's where these are from.
see also: hyena+true sons bits.

honestly, i still use some of those bits to this day. They are solid.

[keen stump]

Ive only recently returned to the division on my pc this time but I reckon I had some of them on my old account

I just really want more Cleaner attire

[bold tiger]

i had a kind soul who took me under his wing and introduced me to PGC/V highend build 😹

[keen stump]

Like full cleaner gear, gas tank on the back and everything

[bold tiger]

functioning gas tank taht when it gets shot it blows us up 🤤

[keen stump]

I'd make the sacrifice

I could just do what the ai does and run at you

[inner tendon]

You can sort of do that, lemme take a quick look.

[left ravine]

Closest it can be, I think :>

[keen stump]

This reminds me more the outcasts otherwise I would rock it

[bold tiger]

have you seen the trashbag outfit? 😹

[keen stump]

I have lmao

[bold tiger]

what's taht look like with the trench mask?

[keen stump]

I know we have the mechanic outfit and the specialist outfit but I need more garbage disposal

[left ravine]

IDK that mask I think?

[bold tiger]

ah, it's from last weeks ambush global event

[inner tendon]

Meltdown is decent for it, but needs some tweaking.

[bold tiger]

imagine if on your phone you write out tweaking but phone auto corrects to twerking? 😹

[left ravine]

It's not a default word for phones AFAIK, you're safe :p

(In theory)

[inner tendon]

It depends on personal use.

👀

[bold tiger]

a game i played had the best twerking emote 😹

was a fun third person shooter with some gun crafting built in

[left ravine]

I thought of Fortnite, lol

[bold tiger]

oh nah

[bold tiger]

🤯 the music! 🤯

[quasi cliff]

hey is there someone who can help me get quickstep please? 🙂

[left ravine]

Oh damn I forgot

[left ravine]

Find someone with a Houndsman bounty they can share with you. Ask in your platform's LFG channel or join the GCROCK discord

[quasi cliff]

TY!

[bold tiger]

i would've loved it if it was the rave music in Blade though 😹

[left ravine]

It might be on the playlist

[dim pewter]

I'm aware. They're claimed but nowhere to be found. Nor the mask.

[left ravine]

Ah I see. You checked your apparel and your stash in case your inventory was full?

[dim pewter]

Yup.

[left ravine]

Alright, create a Ubisoft support ticket then I would suggest

[serene swallow]

where do u start these

[bold tiger]

in hte descent game mode. one enterance just north of white house other in castle settlement

[left ravine]

People who weren't around when Descent was introduced can only use the main entrance in the Castle settlement AFAIK

[bold tiger]

i have no clue, just know the enterances are. you can probably matchmake for it too, but i don't know many who actaully run it

[bold tiger]

same door in castle just behind wally too

[left ravine]

Yes I know, that is the only place it works for many players

[junior sequoia]

Can't you just go through the descent symbol on the map next to countdown?

[bold tiger]

@junior sequoiathis happens next tuesday for 3 days

[junior sequoia]

Oh, I usually ignore those overdrive events

[left ravine]

.

[serene swallow]

is it hard to do?

[bold tiger]

hard to ignore as you can't turn it on or off

[left ravine]

Yes works too

[bright trail]

Yes

[serene swallow]

nvm I tried to do it for weekly quest

[bold tiger]

i'd want to ask "Define hard"

[serene swallow]

any suggestions what missions to run as fresh 30 level

just main ones?

[limber dove]

Whatever you want

[serene swallow]

oki

[left ravine]

Run all of them, can be in any order

[limber dove]

Lvl 40 is the first big milestone for you

[bold tiger]

@serene swallow if you didn't get the gold/ultimate bundle for both WONY/BFB expansion packs. throughout this month you got warlords of new york to play

[serene swallow]

I did get deluxe edition

are burn damage / status damage viable for endgame?

https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1xhuuGgzLW3mLIlXf1wquuF_1SC8PRTjVeho3DX8vk8Y/edits something like these

[bold tiger]

works for most content, but you get a chunga/warhound you're going to struggle

[serene swallow]

what is chunga xd

[left ravine]

The heavies

[hidden bobcat]

does anyone have a solution to error code MIKE-01 aka server issues when the servers arent having any issues? my friend has been trying to get this fixed for 2 days to no avail.

[left ravine]

Did he post in the Ubisoft discord by chance?

[bold tiger]

first one is Outcast i think? usually a big guy with a sledge hammer, Hyena is a guy with an belt fed LMG and police helm

[slim elk]

ANOTHER ONE?! FK OFF...

[fickle ravine]

[bold tiger]

last week of march think we get another overdrive as well

[slim elk]

I cannot send GIFS or else I would post the one banging my head on the wall

[serene swallow]

https://docs.google.com/drawings/d/1GT5z3qub9qZQ7Saih-ID304JsrYEBNR1jvd4V0hLZA0/edit is these good sniper build?

[slim elk]

that's for rifles but yes, just swap in Overdogs and gucci

[bold tiger]

i get your frustration

[serene swallow]

I mean yea 1886 rifle or whatever its called

[bold tiger]

i can't wait until april to give alejandro a real test in builds

[slim elk]

just for another fkn overdrive event to go live...

[left ravine]

Hello?

[hidden bobcat]

sorry I was talking to him about that. He just did it at your advice.

[left ravine]

I was just asking because someone had the very same issue resolved over in the Ubisoft discord. Chronologically it might have been him, just wanted to make sure if it's him or not

[hidden bobcat]

it was not him. where in the ubisoft discord was it resolved?

[left ravine]

https://discord.com/channels/863058244934696961/1478331598448361493

Firewall blocked ports

[serene swallow]

can u get 1886 rifle before 40 level?

[slim elk]

yes but don't worry about builds until you reach lvl40

[serene swallow]

okey

what do u actually get at 40 level

the summit content?

[bold tiger]

anything you target for level 40 targeted loot

Summit/Countdown/Retaliations are the only things we can run where we select our target loots. most ever other place randomly rotates the target loots

[viral crown]

hey btw, would anyone be able to tell me about the regular houndsman bounty? not the bloody one, i was looking for the backpack n mask

[bold tiger]

the regular one is from halloween if you're asking about that?

[pulsar cipher]

which is main wep on SB Obli OverD AR

[wispy merlin]

lex

[pulsar cipher]

k

[fickle ravine]

is 30 expertise on a gun like adding 2 red cores

[bold tiger]

less no? or is that only the armor cores?

[remote wadi]

omfg finally my grind has ended! got him on hyena retal! overdogs done!

[proven lion]

is it possible to join soemone on a mission with a difficulty tier i havent unlocked?

[bold tiger]

you need extra materials

[remote wadi]

yeah ive searched about that hopefully I have enough

[bold tiger]

i don't know honestly, but just guessing you'll be missing some kind of material to craft them

[remote wadi]

lmfao 35? broken shd 5 pcs for 1pc? bro.

[inner tendon]

Cleaners+Rikers mats, and of course, yeah the BT bits.

[bold tiger]

i'm sorry

[inner tendon]

@remote wadi Black Tusk Retaliations are coming soon-ish, you may have to wait if you want them easier.

[bold tiger]

or live in retals for awhile as you convert watches to that

[inner tendon]

My expected hope is next Season, if it's indeed BT focused.

emphasis on the "hope" part.

[bold tiger]

would be awesome

[remote wadi]

oh wait thats 5 shd for 15 def parts

[bold tiger]

am i looking forward to it? not really

[remote wadi]

got eemmm!

[bold tiger]

🤔 imagine if they allowed us to use exotic components to craft broken shd watches? 😹

[remote wadi]

Yall know Ive ran atleast 15-20 retal runs before I get this overdogs blueprint

wait, but why is it not on reconfigure list?

[bold tiger]

nice nice. we've told people hyena retals and they're like "i did but it's not dropping" not sure what to say but RNG is RNG

[left ravine]

It's a great activity and way better than regular CP farming

More fun, at least IMO

[bold tiger]

give it time i say

[remote wadi]

yeah was happy unlocking other blueprint as well while grinding for dogs.

[bold tiger]

i want brooklyn control points to come to DC and NY honestly

[left ravine]

Rocket turrets?

[thorn token]

.

[bold tiger]

rocket/flame/lmg/human cannon ball for outcasts 😹

[left ravine]

People will fight you on that, hahaha

[bold tiger]

BT retal. red pulse stations? 🤔

🤔 hmm, what if hyena dispersed the rusher poweder and the rushers can do double dose? 🤔

[left ravine]

I'm really curious about the BT Retaliations and looking forward to it

[bold tiger]

i'd be afraid of the drone/grenade spamming

[left ravine]

It's just heroic, c'mon

[junior sequoia]

I just hope the kill squad is not a hunter squad like countdown.

[bold tiger]

kill squad. Hunters? 😹

[left ravine]

I'd be down for rogue agents or hunters in that activity

Maybe they will be part of that announced new higher difficulty somehow

[bold tiger]

difficulty? wasn't it just them saying "challenging"?

[left ravine]

Hoping to get more info on that soon

[bold tiger]

i'm not looking forward to darpa though. hate that place with a passion

[left ravine]

Why you bring up Darpa?

[bold tiger]

🤔 retal with Quadcopters for kill squad?

[bold tiger]

it was teased in the stream as that's where the climax is being held

[left ravine]

Ah

[bold tiger]

yeah, i questioned people about it then went to watch it again and was like ah

[inner tendon]

Would've liked that as a surprise.

[runic kestrel]

Hello, new player here. Had many hours of D1, just grabbed D2. With the anniversary season being short, do I have time to start at lv 1, or should I just jump in with a lv30/40 character?

[left ravine]

If you care about the story, no. If you don't care and wanna run things quick to not to miss out, boost.

You could run the story missions in order afterwards at any point anyway

[bold tiger]

or boost to 40 for the event. but still play a character 1-40

[left ravine]

Yeah or that

[terse olive]

does the old manhunts you can play give something unique? or is it just story

[bold tiger]

only something near 10ish gives a specific exotic. the rest is just a satisfaction i guess?

[left ravine]

https://youtu.be/pbEgw-CUqbk?t=3202

"It is going to be a challenge"

[terse olive]

ok thank you ı'll just put em on the back burner for now

[runic kestrel]

Straight to lv 40 or lv30? Or is the experience about the same?

[left ravine]

If you boost, boost straight to 40

[fickle ravine]

going to repeat my question

[weak finch]

No, expertise 30 translates to roughly 12.5% real extra weapon damage. Its not 30% weapon damage like we all think at first

[bold tiger]

i say at least 1 player out there will be like "where's this challenge Yannick?"

[fickle ravine]

that sucks

[weak finch]

every bit helps

[left ravine]

Let's see, I'm hopeful at this point. Things overall are going really well for the game; now they just gotta take care of the bugs tho

[bold tiger]

is tha the same percentage for armors? think i've read people say getting 30 on all armors = soemthing like 1 armor core?

[fickle ravine]

well at least it's better than needing to 30 expertise all 6 pieces of gear just to get 1 blue core worth of armor

[weak finch]

Not sure about armor, gotta ask the real experts in #td2-build-advice

[bold tiger]

ah, well corruptphoton answered it while i was still typing it 😹

[left ravine]

You'd also be surprised how many players think the Streamline talent gives them a full 42% WD

[remote wadi]

Since I got the OD blueprint, crafted it. Why does Inaya dont have it on sale for me to reconfigure the gloves? is this a bug?

[fickle ravine]

well-known bug

[bold tiger]

least you understood them. OD i'm think On Going DIrective

[wide flax]

Question, how come I cannot replace this "damage to armor" stat that I extracted?

[fickle ravine]

you cannot recalibrate exotics

[wide flax]

ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh'

[fickle ravine]

also, CHC is BiS on LMGs

[wide flax]

awesome good to know

[fickle ravine]

especially Big Al, it has no attachments so it's very crit starved

[remote wadi]

so we need to get an overdog dropped from somewhere?

[wide flax]

can we stil farm it during this event?

[fickle ravine]

you're going to have to get another copy if you want a better roll, or optimize the shit out of your current one

[weak finch]

you can re-craft it (need exotic materials)

[wide flax]

thanks

[fickle ravine]

also im pretty sure you still can't get the reconfig bp even if you picked up overdogs, not crafted it

[left ravine]

Yup

[fickle ravine]

god getting 3 more overdogs for my other characters is going to be pain

[remote wadi]

I just crafted another one more better than the first. id optimize the shit out of it.

[fickle ravine]

good luck

[remote wadi]

if have multiple characters, we cant use the storage to share items?

[fickle ravine]

stash is shared between all characters (except for hardcore characters)

[bold tiger]

you can, it might be corrupt doesn't want to keep finding overdogs and swapping them

[remote wadi]

noob question, why make another character if we can just save loadouts? (we have a bunch of slots for loadout saves)

[fickle ravine]

limited number of loadouts per character

i have several builds i can't fit into my primary character anymore simply because i ran out of loadout slots

[bold tiger]

can run the other characters in things like raids for weekly exotic drops if you're searching for those. also with incursion

[remote wadi]

16x loadouts slots isnt enough for yall?!

[fickle ravine]

yes

[left ravine]

No

[bold tiger]

definitely no

[fickle ravine]

double negative strikes again

[remote wadi]

I mean, I respect it. but yeah I cant do that. I play alot of games and I can drop 1k hours of TD2 without making another character. Id just start matchmaking helping other people. Or just delete OLD rotten loadouts. 😆

[fickle ravine]

i have a bunch of more niche builds that i can't fit into my loadout slots because i have 5 goddamned variations of striker

why do i need obliterate striker with overdogs and coyote striker with overdogs

chest striker, PGC striker with overdogs, and then PVGC striker

[left ravine]

A lot of saved builds can be situational, for instance if they have a specialization you don't normally use, etc.

[fickle ravine]

also I have an obliterate striker with demo spec for DH and IH raids

[remote wadi]

yeah I understand. you would also want a build thats suited for a specific factions.

[fickle ravine]

striker is suited for most factions

[left ravine]

It's also very often small build variations. Having them saved is mucho, mucho QoL

[bold tiger]

<-i try to keep commonly preferred builds for group play, but i also want a lot not for group play 😹

[left ravine]

Especially for players who don't just run one type of build

[remote wadi]

I just tried brookly CPs. and I hated flamethrowers and fire. wtf. It was easy doing hyena retals than a normal CP in brook

(I was running all reds)

[left ravine]

The more you play them the sooner you will find dead corners and areas/spots from which you can disable the turrets quickly

[bold tiger]

and this guy wants those defenses in NY and DC 😹
i won't accept anything but a human cannon ball for Outcasts

[remote wadi]

this too actually. I havent spent alot of time in brooklyn yet.

[left ravine]

It's just experience, really

[fickle ravine]

i found an area where the rockets wouldn't touch me and i mowed everyone down from there

[inner tendon]

You can also turn off the Turrets.

really quite easy.

big cable leading to a yellow panel.

[left ravine]

Or just run in, disable turrets/electric blockades, mow them down with some action instead of waiting in a corner. More fun

[fickle ravine]

decoy

[inner tendon]

Or even better, use Quickstep and the current Event to run around all the danger.

Honestly, most fun in Retals I've had in ages.

[left ravine]

I'm doing exactly that, haha

[bold tiger]

i accidently shot quickstep while running pact manhunt 😹

[remote wadi]

Im just happy TD2 getting the love it deserved since DAY 1. 27K players on steam. What a time for people been playing since DAY 1.

I just came back. 😂

[inner tendon]

@remote wadi And the crazy part? That's only counting the steam players, not even the ubi-connect ones, where the bulk of people are from originally.

[bold tiger]

and epic too no? or XboxGame Pass either?

[inner tendon]

Yep, just steam-steam.

[left ravine]

Who uses EGS :S

[inner tendon]

I like claiming their free games and then never playing them.

[bold tiger]

you don't want to know how i read this at first

[left ravine]

YES! 110% 😂

[bold tiger]

i do that on xbox game pass and epic

[left ravine]

I can't explain why

[fickle ravine]

Honestly I think this is the biggest "screw you" to the Epic Games store and I 100% support this

[inner tendon]

I like to imagine that every time I do, Randy Pitchford personally has to pay for it.

Just tell him it's magic, he'll be fine.

[left ravine]

Randy deserves to get pitchfork'd - In my opinion

[inner tendon]

Let's not get too specific with things, Rule 12 covers people you hate too.

[bold tiger]

shouldn't you guys have emoted "send rivens a bat vfx drone"

[inner tendon]

Jokes on you, my ingame sound's off.

[bold tiger]

rivens goes to sleep. all of a sudden phone goes off with div 2 bat vfx sounds playing 😹

[left ravine]

Just at work or in general? :>

[bold tiger]

could you imagine if a hacker heard we hated that vfx. they just have that play on all our phones, tablets and smart tvs?

[inner tendon]

I refuse to answer on grounds that I am a mod for the official discord server :p

Actually right now, my msg tone is the MSN alert.

[bold tiger]

i haven't changed mine much. phone calls it Fun/Wah-Wah

[viral crown]

why are people incapable of countdownnnnnnnnnn

[limber dove]

Challenging?

[bold tiger]

teach them the ways

[viral crown]

challenging

[viral crown]

everyone blobs then gets wipeddddd

[weak finch]

influx of new people, its cool

just be better and keep them alive, i will check countdown later today with my beloved Refactor set and be the mvp

except on the hunter parts of course

[limber dove]

What build are you using

[idle jetty]

I have found more luck running heroic, as many of the new players are scared of heroic. If you don’t have a good build, just do skill tier 6 with chem launcher and restorer hive.

[viral crown]

also glorp, continuing to do countdowns and bounties and still not getting a chameleon qwq

[limber dove]

Yeah Rngesus is a fickle master

[viral crown]

STOP GIVING ME ELMOS

I HAVE 7 STOPPP

[limber dove]

Look under your pillow I left 2 more

[viral crown]

glorp, best way to get it is counties and exotic caches correct? Feel like I'm going insane from not getting onr

[limber dove]

Glorp

Idk how what the drop chances from bounties are but you have to remember that from caches you have (theoretically) about an equal chance to get every exotic in the pool so odds of getting what you want are really low

You might have better luck targeting assault rifles in countdown

[jagged meadow]

anyone have a quickstep on pc?

[fickle ravine]

#lfg-pc

[limber dove]

Or completing hyena retaliations, preferably on heroic (find a group)

[viral crown]

I just need it and I'll be able to shred anytbing

[viral crown]

Glorp

[limber dove]

I think you might be underwhelmed. Glorp

[jagged meadow]

Thanks sorry

[viral crown]

I need those yummy % points

[limber dove]

% of what

[fickle ravine]

im going to accidentally annoy people with this new display name

[fickle ravine]

st. elmos shreds at any range, chameleon shreds only when you're in the enemy's face

but hey, i like how the chameleon looks too, you do you

[twilit blade]

Does anyone want to run ascension? To try and get the big horn?

[fickle ravine]

ascension? you mean summit
also, there are lfg channels

[limber dove]

Ask in the ps lfg channel

[twilit blade]

I can’t find the lfg channel it won’t pop up

[fickle ravine]

it's at the bottom of the channel list

[hybrid latch]

Hello, just came bakc to the game and would like to get my ahnds on a quickstep but it seems u can't drop it anymore.. but i've seen that some people still have bounty where u can drop it

my question sis where should i ask for help from those players?

[fickle ravine]

lfg channels

[hybrid latch]

thanks

[golden harbor]

can i get blueprint for UIC15 Rifle ?

[left ravine]

Complete blueprint list

[vale token]

If you dont have lexington and want to use a high end AR which is better. Shield splint or police M4?

[left ravine]

Police M4

[vale token]

Its just flat out better?

[left ravine]

Yes. Put Killer on it if solo and Measured when in group

[vale token]

Okay thank you

[slim elk]

Lexi vs Police M4 (both w/Killer) results in a 4% difference

[torn jewel]

How do you get max mods

[vale token]

So not that mega big a difference, even better. I am just trying to find something new to use since Ive only use elmos lol

[slim elk]

you pray

[vale token]

Also I know it could be maybe I am not focusing the right enemy type in countdown but idk I feel like the striker set with overdogs does less than coyotes

[limber dove]

Legendary difficulty, mostly

[limber dove]

You’re focusing the wrong enemies

[vale token]

I have a lot and have gotten all of mine from heroic countdown

[torn jewel]

I have a few and I dont even know where I got them from

[left ravine]

Can't really farm them. They just drop sometimes in heroic or legendary

[bright trail]

i did 100 floors of legendary summit and got like 1 or 2 max

1 is incoming repairs

also setting the targeted loot to mods gave more crap

[proven otter]

where can i farm this or is there any item i can dismantle and take it from

[bright trail]

you can't farm them. you have to craft

using broken shd watches that you get from retaliations

maybe when they add black tusk retals

black tusk enemies my drop them

[torn jewel]

Is houndsman still obtainable

[proven otter]

should i first open this to craft it ?

[limber dove]

That’s smth else

[bright trail]

you can't open it i believe. that is another material you will need

for optimizing your stuff

you can craft broken watches but that would be too expensive

[fickle ravine]

no

sorry left caps lock on

[torn jewel]

Oof

[proven otter]

so how i can craft it or or is there any farm for oberdogs since i want that hand ?

[bright trail]

you have to do retaliations anyway. overdogs bp comes from retaliations.

[proven otter]

is there any way that i can join retaliations matchmaking ? it's take too much time to unlock 1 run for retaliations

[fickle ravine]

you can't really matchmake for retal, you kinda have to call for backup, wait for ppl to join, and then start a retal

[proven otter]

and overdogs need a specific faction or it can drop from every faction ?

[limber dove]

As in #lfg-pc , do hyena retaliations on heroic and target gloves

It’ll have a chance to drop randomly, and you also have a chance to get the blueprint on every hyena retaliations completion

[fickle ravine]

oh wait i misread sorry

[limber dove]

[fickle ravine]

have mercy!

[fickle ravine]

by the way if you're doing it on heroic you only have a 50% chance of even getting a random blueprint on completion

[proven otter]

Thank yuo so much

[torn jewel]

How do retaliation even work

[bright trail]

chaotic

heroic retaliations are unforgiving events

doing first time would be probably afatal

[torn jewel]

Idk bro legendary is kinda od

Unless this is worse

[bright trail]

heroic retaliations are closer to legendary than heroic missions

at least in my view

[nimble spruce]

not as hard as legendaries though

[fickle ravine]

heroic retal is chaotic but it's not that bad if you know what you're doing

[nimble spruce]

a bit of practice and you learn the general spawn patterns and don't get flanked so much

[bright trail]

sometimes you will die out of nowhere when 3 rushers charge you

[quick folio]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[bright trail]

theya re great fun though

especially brooklyn ones

[vale token]

Is there a current up to date weapon dps spreadsheet

[jagged meadow]

Is raiding popular at all? like is it easy to find a group regularly

Also I didn't know the raid weapons weren't exclusive to raids anymore that's cool ig

[fickle ravine]

closest thing to that is probably this

[fickle ravine]

you can find groups regularly in the GCROCK discord server, google it or look up "Division 2" in the discord server finder

[fickle ravine]

they technically aren't, but the only way you can get the raid weapon outside of raids is stretch goal caches (EXTREMELY small chance), and something like Christmas caches

[torn jewel]

And dz

[fickle ravine]

otherwise, the only way you can get the raid exotics is by doing the raid

DZ is also technically another option, but it has horrendous odds of dropping and is completely unaffected by targeted loot

Not to mention you have to extract it first, which means Your Local Nemesis Spamming Aimbotting Wallbanging Lag Switcher™ can easily steal it from you

[torn jewel]

Is the 2k event bundle worth it

[fickle ravine]

do you want 50 additional stash space

[torn jewel]

My stash ain't full

[fickle ravine]

if you also don't fancy the cosmetics, don't buy it

i am ambivalent on the cosmetics but i like 50 extra stash space so i bought it

[torn jewel]

What's the extra tiers

[vale token]

thank you

[fickle ravine]

just note that highest damage =/= best in slot

[vale token]

Do we know when another stretch goal is coming? like will there be one towards the end of this anniversary event

[fickle ravine]

anni event is not considered a season

we will get stretch goals in the next season, which will start after this event ends

[vale token]

so a bit aways okay

[torn jewel]

Is there even a season pass rn

[fickle ravine]

there is an event pass, but not a season pass

anyway i've spent too much time procrastinating on this server im going to go back to my physics homework

[torn jewel]

Gl

[sage moth]

can anyone help me get quickstep pistol? just got back into the game

[strange harbor]

#lfg-pc

[narrow kraken]

i was told u can get exotic backpacks from countdown? and or would it be better to farm in summit?

[delicate berry]

am i better off farming for overdogs in countdown or waiting for a retaliation to be available

[pseudo tundra]

both work

[slow solar]

my poor minimap

[vale token]

Does this work. Making a mule. Going to Brooklyn to boost to 40 using watch points for materials. Deleting and doing again

[magic sandal]

Not anymore

U can do that but Points are used across all characters so you'll only be going over the cap.

[vale token]

Oh so even without using boosts like if I have 3 characters they all use scav points at the same time

[magic sandal]

Yes if one character uses points its tied to all the characters on your account

[vale token]

Damn that really sucks lol I missed out

[proven lion]

so someone invited me to the bloodhound bounty then left, is there a way to preserv this bounty for other peope to get quickstep?

[slow solar]

yay

[left ravine]

I don't think so. You could test it by leaving the bounty area (dying, fast travel away) :p

[bright trail]

if i have a shield out on floor 100 of summit against the hunters, should faraday wall protect it when hunters activate emp at the beginning of the combat

[slow solar]

no. they can still hack it. and faraday only applies to static placed things. (hive, turret, so on)

[bright trail]

they dont hack it per se but it is disintigrated

[slow solar]

true but yeah. sadly faraday only applies to static things.

[slow solar]

"Faraday Field
Party members within 5m of your deployed and un-disrupted skills are immune to shock and disruption"

[bright trail]

i used 2 builds to climb entire building, drone/turret and shield/bulwark, none works against the hunters

[slow solar]

turret will. https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/dotirq/faraday_field_shield_skill/ turrets are protected from emps/diruption by farday. i abuse this a lot since i run refactor. but yeah sadly shield bad for that 🙁

[left ravine]

*disrupt

[bright trail]

what build shoud i try? striker?

[slow solar]

something that doesnt need skills is best for hunters sadly.

[left ravine]

Pre-stacked Tipping Scales, throw decoy before you run in

[bright trail]

pfe does not need it but they melt my armor instantly

[slow solar]

i dont know if they count for PFE

[vague nest]

returning player here, is there any sort of config / file we can change to get an increased fov?

default ingame options are too low.

[left ravine]

There's an in-game setting for additional FOV

[vague nest]

like how deadlock lets u change fov via config

[vague nest]

yes thats maxed and its not enough. im talking about more

[left ravine]

Not possible

[vague nest]

even with a client?

[left ravine]

AFAIK, no

[vague nest]

ok ill ask around client servers ty for answering

wish more company were like valve

[slim elk]

you're asking ubi WAY too much 🤣

[pseudo tundra]

ubi probably doenst like you fiddling with the files

so would not reccomend

[left ravine]

Widescreen monitor would be the next step AFAIK 🫠

[vague nest]

nga they wont even reply to my support ticket do you think i care?

[slim elk]

how wide?

[left ravine]

Idk exactly - 21:9 maybe?

[fickle ravine]

I don't think talking about third party tools is allowed here

[vague nest]

id love for the staff to pay attention to this discord

might actually get some tickets answered

[slow solar]

i would avoid touching the files haha. vmprotect is pretty nasty about that. and i would not be suprised if ubi was still outright terminating accounts for modding the game.

[left plinth]

Do Projects also gives double Exotic Compo for upcoming Expertise Surge event?

[vague nest]

just refunding the game instead. fingers crossed d3 is less restrictive. like deadlock

let players do what they want.

[vague nest]

the goat steam has got my back

[fickle ravine]

I mean this isn't an airport, you don't have to announce your departure

[hidden pelican]

Do you get any rewards for beating the campaign on the new realism mode?

[pseudo tundra]

2 skins

[bright trail]

Need a build for hunters floor 100? Give me or i refund

[vivid ocean]

Me and my friend looking for a clan any still active atm?

[left ravine]

#td2-clan-recruitment

[vivid ocean]

oh my bad tyty

[unique jetty]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nrPBmOrtpkEW1j5fbcRT7L-AXgsGOqMqxXoVtopsiGM/edit?gid=1509999994#gid=1509999994 does this list not have a hotshot build i can use ?

tried looking around for it but maybe i overlooked it

[limber dove]

It’s on the spreadsheet

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1j4Km15oZKIc1Hym0y-G2nMMYDH6mqRgLiumI68E724E/edit?usp=drivesdk it’s called sniper setups tho

[unique jetty]

ah thats why thank you

[vapid pecan]

Should i be dismantling my junk or selling it?

[quiet depot]

Anyone else find PVP in the DZ pointless

I'm asking cause I'm trying to farm rifles in DZ west and there's a group of players not even clearing anything they're just hunting players and like I'd understand if the rewards for killing another agent were good but they just aren't

[limber dove]

Do you want an easier way to farm rifles

[fickle ravine]

that's the average DZ experience for you

people just love to gank there

[quiet depot]

Not really since I'm specifically trying to get the raid exotics

[fickle ravine]

you have a better chance of winning the lottery than getting one to drop and then extracting it without being murdered by Your Local Nemesis Spamming Aimbotting Wallhacking Lag Switcher™

[quiet depot]

Yea it feels that way though managed to extract two exotics earlier so felt good about that lol

[fickle ravine]

I'm assuming you're trying to get Ravenous. Bad news, the odds are absolutely terrible, and not affected by targeted loot at all

[limber dove]

Oh gotcha

[fickle ravine]

You're better off joining a few IH teaching raids and ask for a Ravenous

[limber dove]

Yeah you’d probably have an easier time joining a raid haha

[meager spindle]

are retaliations hard?

[fickle ravine]

they're chaotic, but it's not that difficult once you know what you're doing

[quiet depot]

Nah as long as you don't encounter some BS

[fickle ravine]

you can solo heroic with only minor amounts of pain

[limber dove]

Probably don’t try them solo until you have a good handle on them first tho

At least on heroic, a few deaths and you can fail the whole thing

[quiet depot]

The amount of times I've been double grenaded and instantly died on retaliation is annoying

[meager spindle]

doe retaliation drop good loot? I'm ngl I've been spamming countdown and started farming dz with a friend so he can hopefully get a st elmos

[fickle ravine]

pretty good source of loot, you do need to pick it up really fast though

[limber dove]

It’s the same as countdown where you can target things

[bright trail]

Summit at legendary gives good rolls and easier than heroic retal imho

[quiet depot]

Summits defiantly easier

[vapid nest]

Summit Legendary is basically the spot to go for farming quality over quantity.

I mean... it's pretty much the only spot since the pace remains consistent whereas missions are always going to have downtime and they don't provide nearly enough bosses in the same timeframe.

[opaque nova]

i have a stupid question ... the team alowed us to farm levels over 50 but we get nothing for those levels ?... cuz i don't see strech goals or anything where to spend extra levels ?...

[limber dove]

Yeah that number doesnt really mean anything rn haha

[opaque nova]

oky hehe thanks ubi then

[left ravine]

It probably stops at 100 because it is the regular season pass mechanic

[opaque nova]

hmm i'll try and see if it does stop randomly at 100 ;3

[runic kestrel]

So just got ultimate edition. It seems to unlock 3 specializations with full points. How do I get points for the remaining 3?

[limber dove]

Equip them and you’ll gain points by leveling up and completing missions + activities

[lucid axle]

is the ninjabike backpack good? just got one and have no idea

[limber dove]

Not really

[lucid axle]

thank you

[limber dove]

It’s usually not worth losing a backpack talent for

Think it has very niche PvP uses but that’s it

[runic kestrel]

So there are some challenges for the 3, so I still have to complete those to progress or is that just for extra stuff?

[limber dove]

I think the challenges mainly give cosmetic things but honestly idk I havent done them

[west quail]

Some named items or named chests I think too

[meager spindle]

how is scorpio?

[limber dove]

Good

[meager spindle]

just dropped for my priority objective

[slim elk]

good for support builds and against hunters/rogues
not used as a main in other stuff

[slow solar]

is it the regen shotgun? or am i thinking of somethng else?

[slim elk]

the status effect shotty

[limber dove]

You’re thinking of mop

[slow solar]

ewww

[slow solar]

ahh yeah i use it. it has the universal 10% AOK. it replaced emlines for me (15% aok/30% aok on headshot) since it can have In Sync

[limber dove]

Oh that sounds like sauce actually

[slow solar]

i was actually sold when localdeck told me it procs on ANY kill. even if another npc kills an npc you still get the 10% if your holding it.

[limber dove]

Do you know if there’s a time limit 👀 like how soon does my drone have to kill smth after I shoot it with mop

[slow solar]

the even better thing? when you kiil skills like hostile turrets you get 10% armor haha

[slow solar]

you dont have to shoot it. the only requirement is to be holding the mop when something dies. it can die to anything 😆

[limber dove]

Whaat that’s peak

[slow solar]

yeah thats the entire reason i was sold on it

[limber dove]

Hmmmmmmm I will have to look into this when I get home…

[slow solar]

emelines requires you shoot something to get the armor on kill. the mop doesnt 😆

[uneven quartz]

dog boy best boy

[wise gazelle]

returning player here anyone have any tips on how to get true sons tactical assessments been farming alert level 4 control points and killing named guys but nothing seems to drop them any tips or help would be greatly appreciated

[slow solar]

you are so lucky i can not use custom emojis. 😢

[fickle ravine]

i don't think stickers are allowed either

[uneven quartz]

Hmm i can only imagine what it was

you have an attitude of a cat but you are a cat girl sso it makes sence😎

[left ravine]

Are you getting none at all?

Another source is bounties

[left ravine]

They don't drop many. Check before you take over a CP and after

[uneven quartz]

So i have a question

Is the r/division 2 discord better/more active then the offical one?

maby i should ask in the general chat

[left ravine]

They're both very active. None is better than the other

[inner tendon]

@uneven quartz Honestly didn't know there was a reddit division discord, but this (the official one) is by far the largest.
the community one is fairly large too, and it's recommended that you join both overall.

[left ravine]

They both hate me when I say Ninjabike backpack is not a good choice in PvE :}

[west quail]

But we all really want ot run 5 2-piece set bonuses >.>

[inner tendon]

It makes an excellent Exotic Component.

[left ravine]

I stopped bringing reason the heathens

[uneven quartz]

Okay yeah thats actually what i did haha, but i know sometims for certain games the subreddit server is more acti e/mantained then the offical one so was just curious

[left ravine]

r/division has more members but accounts for Div1 too. Otherwise, like I said, both pretty active

[inner tendon]

@left ravine Send me a link to the reddit division server, I'm curious.

[left ravine]

Ohhhh I apologize, I didn't read the part about Discords... Just Reddit

That Reddit thread has no Discord. r/Division2 has one but it's dead

@inner tendon

[inner tendon]

That sounds about right.
I was wondering, since the community server has a fair few less folks than us.

[left ravine]

It's a different one. Literally dead

[uneven quartz]

yes it doe

does

[warm salmon]

there's a r/thedivision discord, it's fairly active

[uneven quartz]

the offical subreddit for division 2 has one

[left ravine]

Huh?

[warm salmon]

wait im confused

[uneven quartz]

yeah tis one and the reddit one are like the two biggest discord servers for D2

[uneven quartz]

no your right

unless im confusd too

[left ravine]

Yes, that is the so called community discord, my bad

Not my day today I guess

[inner tendon]

The gap between there and here expanded quite a lot today, with the recent tweet.
Make sure you're extra nice to all the new faces.

[uneven quartz]

recnt tet?

[inner tendon]

@uneven quartz sorry, discord invite links are auto-modded due to an abundance of scams.

[uneven quartz]

rcent tweet *

[inner tendon]

#division-tweets message

[warm salmon]

Wait no, r/thedivision has 2 discords linked in the sidebar, this one and the community one

[limber dove]

Ohh did they mention this server, is that why there’s so many asking about quickstep all of a sudden

[uneven quartz]

oops sorry

[inner tendon]

No harm, it seems obvious that people could link it.

[uneven quartz]

Oooooh yeah, well good for then for advertising it, good for thr gane

[wise gazelle]

yea im getting none what so ever and i have been checking before and after and been following what google says to do and it says run checkpoints its the best method but iv been at it for over 3 hours and only found 5 just wondering if there is a better and faster way to get them cause this is just stupid farm for hours and find nothing

[left ravine]

Bounties for sure I might say

Alternatively, craft them

What is your SHD level?

[wise gazelle]

id like to craft them but even crafting them says you need to do checkpoints and what not to get the craft for it

and im at 400 atm

[inner tendon]

@sour cipher Just an FYI, if you're trying to farm Eagle Bearer: Targeted Loot within the DZ doesn't boost your chances, same with Ravenous and Bighorn.

[left ravine]

You'd need the blueprint for them

[warm salmon]

Grinding anything from control points is unfortunately up to RNGesus

[left ravine]

You just need these mats to craft them

[inner tendon]

Well, the blueprints are always 1/per completion, so you eventually 100% will get them all.

[buoyant narwhal]

Are attachments worth chasing by doing the sidequests and stuff or should I just play and if I get them I get them

[left ravine]

Projects, side missions, control points

Get them all eventually because they don't drop in any particular order

[wise gazelle]

yea iv probs done 30+ control points so far today and nothing honestly kind of annoying to get the mats to drop or even the bp you think id of atleast gotten one or the other but nothing is just stupid

[left ravine]

Blueprints are dropping on challenging/heroic for sure

[wise gazelle]

im running heroic and clearing the stuff fast and nothing

[pine fractal]

hey i tried making a build with the oxypecker and my shield is decaying way faster than 10% a second i get to hold onto the shield for like 2 seconds before it is put on cooldown

[wise gazelle]

like is there better odds if you have a group or am i just screwed and gotta pray i get lucky

[warm salmon]

Oh god it's another patrick wolf build
The global event affects the oxpecker shield decay

[left ravine]

I'm very sure you are getting blueprints, pls check. Repeated CP farming and bounties are pretty much the only way to get faction assessments, aside from crafting OFC

[wise gazelle]

yea no blueprints so idk mate just seems like im chasing a ghost lol

[inner tendon]

@wise gazelle There is a massive pool of BP's available from CP's, assuming you are running them at Lvl 3 or 4 (both give you 1 bp), you will eventually get everything.

that includes some gun mods too, btw. It's honestly huge.

[tired verge]

whats a good secondary for this

run out of lmg ammo too quickly

[left ravine]

Assault Rifle

[tired verge]

lexington? famas? liberator?

[left ravine]

Possibly a slow firing one with 650 RPM

Less ammo needed to build TS stacks

[tired verge]

thanks, i will go back to my storage garage

[left ravine]

SOCOM MK16 and Tactical MK16 are both good

ACRs also decent for that

[digital maple]

hey all, question about crafting weapon mods. i just recently reached level 40 and my crafting bench is also level 40. I crafted a few mods at a lower level so is ther a way to bring those mods up to the 'High End' rarity or are they stuck at the lower level? Is there a way to craft them again at my current level?

[marble olive]

any recommendations for a very tanky build? i have been using Heartbreaker but it requires headshots, and my armour still breaks very easily in Legendary, also what weapons should i use that's currently the best one to use?

[limber dove]

You don’t need headshots if you use the linked laser pointer

Read this - https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HeLeb8_c6w6DY-0qwVuKUfaCjp27f9wrv0_H6g2Ah98/edit?usp=drivesdk

[marble olive]

true, i have been using Kingbreaker for that, honestly the weapon itself doesn't go well with how i play

[limber dove]

Are you talking about the talent, flatline

[warm salmon]

it's honestly not a good gun

[marble olive]

no, the weapon itself, the bloom of the weapon is too high for my liking

[warm salmon]

if it had more fire rate i'd excuse the low accuracy

[marble olive]

any recommendations for the weapon i should use that's well balanced?

[warm salmon]

police m4 is fine

[left ravine]

Police M4/Carbine 7

[marble olive]

alright, one more question, is it better if i craft the weapon or have it drop instead?

[limber dove]

No difference

[warm salmon]

iirc crafts have lower rolls

[limber dove]

Dang me when I lie

[left ravine]

Quality is like hard-challenging and very rarely almost full rolls

[marble olive]

alright, honestly thought that my old build was outdated, apparently it's still going strong, this is exactly my build, the only difference would be i was using Ouroboros and Kingbreaker

[limber dove]

Yeah looks like crafting weights towards lower rolls

[marble olive]

i see..., i guess i have to farm for it then

[left ravine]

Targeted loot Assault Rifles and godspeed

[marble olive]

thank god that Countdown is still filled with people

[limber dove]

But without the linked laser pointer haha

[marble olive]

oh i am using the laser pointer, i put it in the kingbreaker, but honestly, i do not like that gun at all, the recoil is too much, the bloom is too big, basically i can barely hit long ranged enemies

[left ravine]

Plus it's too slow

[limber dove]

Im just saying you would prob have a better time using a stronger weapon than king breaker, plus you dont need to hit headshots if you’re using the laser pointer

[marble olive]

IKR, it's too damn slow...

but yeah, i'm going to watch out for police m4, thanks everyone o7

[left ravine]

GL

[lucid axle]

Should I be using the breaking point gear set for a crit shroud build?

[left ravine]

Can also use an Airaldi backpack

[rain sable]

in the summit is it best to restart round 100 for the loot?
