Does a Manhunt/Retal exclusive exotic go into regular lootpool if you crafted or looted it once?

bold tiger
spare atlas
#

Don't think any

#

But you can get manhunt exotics in retal as blueprints, that's what I meant sry

#

Too bad it doesnt go into lootpool

bold tiger
#

the only lootpool the manhuts goes into is stretch goals. diluting the exotic loot pool even further for those that don't want to raid or do incursion 😹

spare atlas
#

I'm just salty because I farmed up 50 diamond retal things to craft Tinkerer, and now I apparently donated it to expertise without realizing right after crafting it 🤦‍♂️

inner tendon
#

Unless that's been changed since I read it.

bold tiger
#

no clue if they changed it, but wasn't sure if any exotic was exclusive to retaliations. blueprints i can see being only for this season though 🤔

left ravine
#

Does prototyping a weapon lead to all weapons of the same kind lose their mods and skins for anyone else?

#

Have to re-attach everything again

bold tiger
#

you know i never looked at it after i prototyped it. i should check the next time i play 😹

#

Hello!

is it still possible to get the tinkerer? the potomac event center cant be played on higher diff anymore

so if i beat the mission on heroic, i can play it on master?

ah okay niuce

#

and you cant escalate the mission right?

bold tiger
#

no escalations is for the base mission (different faction) though would you want to run it on escalation? 🤔

Speaking of which, why r the Team 9 killsquads easier than the normal BTSU killsquads?

Ok just got another Tinkerer from master manager, after accidentally donating my first one I crafted 🥴 Master isn't as hard as I thought, good to know for future manhunts

I mean based on the comm, I would say : Coordinated team < Uncoordinated team

cold root
#

i just completed the potomac event center on heroic and i still cant play it on masters

inner tendon
#

@cold root You need to do the Manhunt version on a difficulty, not the base/invaded. Double-check.
if you did and it's not working, try re-logging.

Does all gear and weapons attributes move up on their own as you use them?

# fickle ember Idk what that means lol

you get a so-called SHD Watch after finishing the Warlords of New York campaign, if you have that and are LVL40 you start getting SHD levels instead of character levels (I assume being lvl40 and having WONY completed unlocks retaliations)

I guess then it's just level 40 for retals div2shrug

do you guys know how do I get the blueprint for overdog reconfig

left ravine
#

Apparently there are still issues between the Overdogs and Blacklisters. AFAIK you just need the Blacklisters in your inventory and you can reconfig them

daring ocean
#

The weird thing is I have two overdogs in my inventory but whenever I go to the crafting station I just cant reconfig them because I guess the game tells me I dont have that blueprint yet. But I do have the crafting blueprint one tho

fickle ravine
#

crafting bp and reconfig bp are separate

dapper root

yeah its simply not there? When I navigate to it it just say the blueprint drop from hyenas retaliation

left ravine

She gave him the Blacklisters reconfig blueprint most likely

Try having the Blacklisters kneepads in your inventory when you want to re-roll your Overdogs

will prob trynna get that exotic first dont think I have it yet

hey folks, new to endgame player here. still low shd tech level but i've assembled a very starter striker build to tackle bfb but the expansion is kinda kicking my ass. the enemies spawning behind you and overall tankiness of the bosses is significantly more brutal than wony. is it recommended to dip into bfb when i've assembled a more able build/leveled up my shd tech level more?

whats everyone's opinion on how tipping scales stacks up aginst stiker sets?

fresh niche
#

Prototype is so bugged atm. Did few gear pieces and it showed 20,5 dmg and 13,5 chd (striker mask) other was 18 and 16chd (gloves) then i log out and in and dmg is back ton15 on both and the chd is now maxed....

dapper root
fickle ravine
#

TS is slightly behind Striker, but the main problem with TS imo is that it's too annoying to stack and you lose stacks very quickly

dapper root
fresh niche
#

So its always the second stat that then is max same for lexinton even named items (salvo/contractors) maxes the special attribute rest is normal

#

Well anyway atm i call bs on how it does what it does so i will be just hoarding the cores from now on until something changes/gets fixed

nimble spruce
#

No, it's random, and there's a small chance that more than one stat will be increased

yall reckon i can max 18 skills in this prof event to have them all proficent

I have 2 True Sons retaliations, like the overclock has 2 red rings, and like 1/3rd of a white one. I don't have the option to initiate a retaliation though. Can you not just do the two that are ready? do all three rings have to be filled?

nevermind, yea, I think a bug. I found and killed one true son, didn't move the white ring, but I got the "moving into.." message and it's availible now.

is weapon handling better than headshot damage?

"weapon handling" is actually 4 separate stats in 1. Reload/swap-speed/accuracy (reticule bloom)/ and stability (vertical kick).

warm salmon

damage is king as usual, but weapon handling does help you actually land headshots

ohhh thanks! I should have gone weapon handling than headshot damage

don't worry, you'll max out both eventually.

that buys you 7 mods. 7 mods give 42 filament

#

the issue is that does not move a needle for proficency and doing it is boring

vale token
#

So its better to just buy PF anyway

#

Its best to just target mods in countdown, use levels for PF, breakdown the mods, sell the gear. Buy named item caches and just repeat til event is over lol

#

and depending how much you play you should net a good chunk of levels

#

1k PF per item, its i think 9 items per level (for me anyways)

bright trail
#

yeah it was 3k now 1k. and post 20, 9 items per level

#

i am at lvl 20 but can't countdowns anymore

vale token
#

If I just grind and I dont include wearing items to get passive XP. I will need 306 countdown runs to go from 26-30 lol because i need 36,720 PF in total

#

120 PF per run on average is what I am mathing lol

bright trail
#

wearing is extremely slow imho but maybe faster. with promo. i am full on all gearsets etc.. only obscure exotics and named items and some skills

vale token
#

I will just put a weapon on and a skill on

#

2 more pieces of striker and not sure about the last two

nimble spruce
#

Probably overdogs and a UA or ceska piece, I'm not sure what the absolute meta is this season

#

Spreadsheet pinned in #td2-build-advice probably has a section on incursion builds, I know bloody knuckles was a top choice but likely displaced by overdogs in some of the fights

versed harbor
#

So at Ex lvl 30 when you convert existing gear into prototype, does it still randomize the stats or does it keep what that piece has and just enhances it?

bright trail
#

it does not randomize. in most cases enhances one and keeps others same and adds an augment

#

in rare cases enhances more than one

dapper root
nimble spruce
#

It might look like it randomised the stats when you first upgrade though due to a visual bug, have to log off and on again to see the real stats

Are prototypes not shared? Across characters

Prototype should be since its gear

#

Proto cores appear to be per character at the moment

nocturne siren
# rancid trail Why you recommend that? Genuine question.

You have plenty of crits to run bighorn despite it having 0 crit mods. Plus, the damage is immediate because bighorn relies on hitting headshots which builds stacks for more headshot damage. Your damage will come from the crits themselves and the boosted damage to headshots. Unlike strega requiring you to get kills and have enemies nearby killed enemies to get those stacks

I dub the build "Crithorn" frequently and run it whenever I'm bored and need a change of weapons/gear

Also another question. Suppose three enemies have the strega mark already. And then I apply the Negotiator mark too. So when I shoot one enemy, the other two ads who are getting damaged from the nego mark, that damage will also be amplified cause of the strega mark on them?

pearl pasture
# cloud topaz As someone who doesn't ever want to do pvp or raid, what should I spend printer ...

So as of this season, they have added the exclusive exotics as possible blueprint drops from blacktusk team 9 kill squads that rarely appear in retaliations. I think the only missing one is the regulus however there is a chance they bring the actual exotics as a super rare drop in end of season caches again. But other than the reg all the other former exclusives can be gotten via retaliations now!

#

And black tusk retaliations*

cloud topaz

hmm

pearl pasture

is there a list of the rarest or the pvp/dz and raid exclusve items?

#

i already have the yaahl backpack i'm leveling

hollow reef
cloud topaz
#

ok i'll spend my printer filament on those to start i guess

pearl pasture
# cloud topaz hmm

The ones you could focus on expertise though would be: eagle bearer, ravenous, regulus, ouroborous and optionally the master mode drops like sheriff, tempest, birdies quick fix, tinkerer, provocator. As for DZ most of the stuff will be named items you can get elsewhere but stuff like emperor's guard, dark winter, hollow man, matador, liquid engineer are dz "exclusives" along with system corruption or yaahl unless a vendor gets them

Question: What's the point of the retaliations? I've tried a couple of them, but they only give me 5 minutes to cover an entire area and capture all the control points. It takes me two to three minutes just to reach the first one and another two or three to clear it. By the time the leader appears, the time is over. It's literally impossible; I barely have time to even start.

Huh? Retaliation isn't meant to check loot

In back to back retaliations you get a load of items, fills up quick

It's a good idea to make sure your inventory is empty enough to handle a timed mode before you start it.
Same with Countdown.

cobalt sedge
#

Yeah, I do, but you get like 40-50 things per retaliation

slim nova
#

Keep going... you empty out space before you even start the retaliation lol. I just either don't pick it up or I keep going (Been max expertise for a while)

But any exotics I immediately deconstruct and keep on moving

#

Keep in mind it's like a speed run... forget that loot

warm salmon
#

i keep 60 slots free for countdown but with all the stuff i have that's not really possible anymore lmao

cobalt sedge
#

Yeah I'm not max expertise so it's an entirely different experience for me, you gotta remember that

slim nova
#

True, that's why I said to empty out space for it

cobalt sedge
#

As I said, I do, but with 3 back to back it's not possible to have space. Some stuff has to go

slim nova
#

And honestly, don't even pick up anything fr. You have to prioritize your timer

cobalt sedge
#

The 90 seconds at the end of one retal is barely enough

#

There's plenty of time in the actual thing, I end up with loads of time left over, but that doesn't translate into extra time at the end to quickly sift through things. And it is quick, check library, skim items, drop into expertise. But it'd be nice to have a bit longer

warm salmon
#

I always just donate and deconstruct junk between control points

slim nova
#

Hey I needed exotic components one day and kept it pushing, I know I'll get it some other time lol

If you really want Exo Comps over anything else, open the CP chests mid-run, they also count for the TL as well.

#

In div2, you have to be ruthless with your inventory. Otherwise you overload incredibly fast.

I actually skip those as well. I just move onto the next cp

Each CP chest has a chance to give you an Exo Comp, just for the record.
Think of loot in div2 like this: can you make it perfect with 1 recal, and a few optimisations? If not and it's not an Exotic: junk it.

Best advice I've always given is to divide your build archetypes across the 4 characters to maximize keeping your inventory around 85-105 at all times.

It helps because I can pick up a lot and delete it if I picked it up during the retaliation back to back runs

Almost all of my characters are at 145/150 inventory bc I have so many useful builds but not enough loadouts slots.

UBISOFT ADD MORE BUILD SLOTS PLEASE, NOT MORE STASH SPACE 🙏

slim nova

Yeah always just deconstruct the loot if you dont really need it. Ik you aren't max expertise like you mentioned, but you don't have to pick up stuff. Save that for countdown

Both would be nice

Builds with shared pieces can cut down a lot on your inventory space.
but even so: you have to be ruthless with pieces. You do not need 150 slots taken up at all times in your inventory.

# slim nova That's just bad management lol

How? Every single piece on my character slots all have a purpose and make a difference in the battlefield. I also have other pieces on those characters that make up into different builds because I don't have slots for them due to all 16 slots being taken up. It's not bad management, it's lack of slots lol

Lord Aizen of all people would know what that's like 🙏

You can just use one build slot per gearset

No offense meant to the game here or anything, but a lot of the gearsets in div2 are.....not great.

Wait, define "defense" builds.....

You do not need 5 different versions of Striker.

slim nova
#

It can work, you just cannot make every character pick up everything

And not every gear set is good. About half of them need reworks... Most of the players don't even know what Ace and 8's is lmao

Me who use nothing but the good gear, still chilling at 145/150:

To be 100% honest: if I join a Retaliation and someone stops every encounter to inventory manage; I am bailing.

If I start a Retal with a maxed out inventory, I am emptying out at least 50 pieces into the stash before i leave the safe house.

#

And the more Retal's you play, the better your inventory management, since you get Reconstructed Caches, and you don't need to keep as many pieces.

For me, if it's not better than anything I have, it gets deconned. I have basically everything in the game. I can't remember the last time I picked up loot and kept it to use it

heady veldt
#

you know.. now when I think about it.. what would be a nice QoL improvement, like they are doing now with compare after update.. To pull build items not only from stash but from other characters.. that would be nice. Right now, you kind of have to send the build to stash and pick it up on the other character.

Ngl I didn't, it it wasn't better for what I had back during the gear score days, I didn't pick it up

I've got an absolutely flawlessly tweaked up Airaldi bp at this point, it's going to be hard to overcome that one.

I like not having absolutely everything done anymore. I didn't need to loot anything for about 3 years and it felt like I was "done".
gotta have that goal to chase.

# slim nova But from what we said earlier. If it isn't better than whatever you have, someth...

I get it, I'm just saying what I feel people feel if they are newer accounts. For me personally it's completely irrelevant at this point, I have most of the items in blueprints too.. and you basically have everything.. but for them, gear drops and getting good stuff or better stuff and they don't have the muscle memory to quickly check cause they don't even know until they go to white house to compare if that makes sense. I get folks like that. The amount of loot Division 2 has is sometimes overwhelming for folks.
