Ah
The one for Adrestia to dismantle for the scope... if you already opened it today, youll have to wait tomorrow.
I haven't opened it. ever, for that matter
hrmm... someone mustve opened it while your team moved ahead
either that or you incurred their cooldown and now have to wait.
it definitely never got opened
I was lagging behind so I would've noticed lol
that's incredibly inconvenient either way
Yeah
was hoping to get it before weekly invaded strongholds reset
guess I'll just have to wait another week lol
Well.. on the bright side, at least its not grand washington hotel this week.
in any case thanks for the help
how do i farm the waveform at a reasonable speed and how do i farm materials like ceramics (im always out of ceramics. darn you recalibration)
1- holster loot
2- go into your resources tab and you can see what faction drops ceramics
time to spend 3 years farming holsters never to get the waveform
hey @grand nebula you lurking? got time for a sheet question ?
How tf do u get another adresia
Do u need Nemesis crafted?
sure
must not have nemesis in bank or inventory
Srsly?
indeed
Cheezy shit like this...
where did the current base weapon damages of the sheet come from?
its in the hub tab, theyre from the mined numbers from bitlilins sheet or from in game
typos are possible
but those were pre buffs right, how did they get upgraded?
thing is on a little check i think allot may be wrong by a tiny margin.
hasnt been buffs in a while, theyre from TU9 or 10 i think
TU9 was the weapon beef up, and the sheet was made afterwards... @oak talon curious, are those numbers you are looking at in game? Don't forget about watch WD
usually i dont use base dmg myself as i just get crit and non crit numbers from the range, but for the ar sheet im making i tried to make it myself easier and just take the time to make a damage calc to put into my normal sheets, but with the base dmg's from its all off by a few points (a few tens to a few k)from the ingame
i havent checked any tbh but its plenty possible, il have a go at it sometime this week
this sheets here, from the link in hub, are definetly old numbers pre buffs, just check the ars against current ingame basses, or the current numbers in the sheet
That would make sense if its a few 10s to a few thousands.. considering thats within the range of 5-20% increases.
<.<
Well then.. The damage numbers aged terribly
here is kinda where my testing lead upto sofar, just the carbine and famas as a test https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1NsZLmTjXyFuPR6chmhvG8OhWTncMWI0RViGN2E1BAeE/edit#gid=0
thing is with the numbers from the other sheet which shall not be named its all correct
ah nice, il just copy them from there then lul
drop a link to it if you can, i dont have it saved
what calculations? are you calculating base weapon damage?
the bottom table in my sheet i linked, i take the ingame dmg for crit or nocrit, and calculate back with build stats
you know you can just see the base weapon damage
it there a spot it shows it not truncated ?
if you enable the show base damage thing it should show the entire number
technically we could take it fro ma char that has no gear or watch stats
is that in gearscore?
what
for me the only turning it on shows it like this https://imgur.com/a/vtkWxqG
always truncated
odd
il log in in a bit
hmm yea, i guess i miss remembered
in any case you can just see weapon damage and divide it by your added wd
i also have a char with 0 shd if you need any weapon cleared up
yeah, i could have skipped a few steps by doing it that way, the actuall dmg output is unneeded steps
well the thing is its almost al ARs sofar that have a tiny difference between ingame and calculating it out with the base from the sheet, like almost all of them
and i havent looked at any of the other classes
just PM me an email i can add as editor and you can change them if you want to, il get onto the rest eventually
fine, ill help on this one :P, sent a friend request as you have dms closed
already accepted
you might aswell put the ones you did in the sheet instead of a random new sheet of your own lul
What's the use of backpack weave?
optimization
no i was using them for a table like the lmg one i did, with a large comparison for all talents with all weapons when i ran into it
nerd
look whos talking 😛
Outside of dz what's the fastest xp?
is there anything i can use that is not the regulus to use with the exotic dodge city holster ?
not really
sad moment
the only thing i can think of is pairing it with creeping death, ridgeways, and eclipse, except it wouldnt give the status effect to a one-tap
thanks
ANy pistol will work. A D50 is probably your best bet
If you dont want to knock your exotic slot
liberty i guess
I know that a sniper build that is using Nemesis or Mantis can abuse it just as effectivelyu.
how come in the summit I keep getting stuck in the elevator
3 times today the door just doesn't open
Clearing control points on heroic and interception of conveyors
so can it drop exotics for targeted weapon loot in man missions?
Yes, also summit
this is a question that i need an asnwer to... my friend is level 30 and world tier 5. he got all the components for the liberty pistol, and 2/3 for chatterbox. if we start the expanssion, will he still be able to use those to craft the exotics at lvl 40? or will we need to get them once agian
i think you can craft exotic with blueprints only once, the first time
then you'll be able to find them as drops.. I'm not sure but it's what I read
about the level I don't know
You can put the crafted exotic (liberty, chatterbox, nemesis) into your stash, then take it out of the stash with your secondary character
your primary character can now craft them again
sure you can find them as drops after crafting btw, I found liberty and chatterbox
You can find them as drops once you get the Blueprint of each respected exotic
yep that's what I meant to say
when getting liberty, i had all the parts + blueprint and was farming summit for a D50 to craft Liberty, and got it as a drop lol
oh so you don't even need to craft them?
↑
didn't know that just want to be sure, nice to know
no im askling like
he hasnt crafted them yet
but he has the componentscan he craft them after he finishes the expansion or does he need to craft them now and reconfigure afterwards
Isn't there a difficulty selection for random activity and open world exploration?
ah, so I have to change my map settings in order to join higher difficulty activities
that isn't like selecting mission difficulty which is sad. I was keeping my world difficulty lower
if you have the DLC you should be able to get every item ingame
difference is if he is lvl 30 WT 5 and crafts liberty, its gonna be lvl 30, but once he reaches lvl 40 he has to reroll liberty which costs 1 exotic part (you get from dismantling exotics)
yeah
so whats ur question still?
so it would be better to wait and craft it at level 40 right?
getting lvl 40 is easy (+ completing the DLC campaign)
around 5-6h average if ur taking it easy
i know
im asking if its better for him to craft the exotics after the campaing or not
if ur planning on going to 40 then craft it once youre 40
ok thank you
Can someone carry me in capitol hill legendary 😅
sure, someone over in #lfg-pc.
What's the best gadget for armour repair?
depends on the build. but repair hive and heal chem are top (even for dps builds)
repair drone/seeker/trap just heals too slow
Even with high skill tier?
yes
well repair drone/seeker/trap become better at high skill tier BUT so do the other ones and they become even better.
I have been using heal chem my whole playthrough so I guess I dont need to change
So does a dps build sacrifice armour and health?
Yes and no. Armor doesn’t matter unless you combo it with enough things for it to matter, someone with 1.7m armor (max armor) still gets melted by NPCS since they deal sooooo much damage, unless that person combos the armor (ie shield, or mass regen or xzy)
Pretty much if ur gonna be a dedicated tank you wont deal any damage and you need a shield, most likely Bulwark to actually tank and not go down in 5-6 shots vs 3 shots for DPS classes
you could go hybrid tank, so ur built as a tank but have some red cores to boost dmg,
when going DPS you dont need to go all reds, most hunter fury set users have some blues + shield in their build for example
I just got the world teir 1 like 15 minutes ago so I'm new to builds and all this other stuff
No
well recommended you buy it rn cos its cheap
but if u decide not to thats prolly fine, theres a few players who still dont ave it so its not entirely empty
but yea without DLC go hit world tier 5 trying out some weapons n stuff
then start looking for builds
its fucking what?
it should be 9€ right now...
@foggy needle ayo did the promo end?
Its not on sale her in Australia at the moment
mightaswell be with div2...
So which specialisation should i start off with?
Sharpshooter, because the sound of the Tac.50.
Fair but I think that m32 rotary grenade launcher is calling my name
None of the Trees are bad, and you'll unlock them all eventually.
lol, yeah best of luck with that.
if it helps, the best time for us seems to be afternoon, east coast 3pm ish for me.
Im Australian to so we probably share a close time zone
we do have 3, to be fair. Qld for me.
Nsw for me
I dont really care for sport much but yeah happy about that win
My dad certainly was
not into sport much either, but i like getting caught up in the hype
its also fun to tease a qld'born friend of mine :p
Lol
is there something preventing me from dropping alps summit mask?
ive been tryign to get it from the summit for 3 days now and i cant find one at all
is my rng that bad or is it that i cant drop it from summit
Probs just RNG.
like, its dropping me every other piece, but not the mask... 3 days for 1 project and i cant get a mask
just keep on plugging away.
what diff/how many directives are on?
4 directives
each one you have ads a small % to the chance that a TL drop will happen.
see if you can work your way up to 7ish.
same with having it on Challenging+. That removes purple drops.
well i reached floor 99 so yeah, cant cahnge directives
you could just reset it.
ill just farm the first part of floor 100 for it
whatever floats your boat!
its the only way i can see it weorking
its pretty common for ppl to just spam 1-20 a bunch of times. but you might as well get a Hunter completion in too.
and the boss drop is chest piece xd
Guys which assault rifle is the best
There is no "best".
basically all of them, depending on usage/talents/build.
Can I get them in dark zone
oh sure, you can even get some specific DZ ones like Manic.
Course there is
mk16 and M4 are clearly the best
that one hurt to read
Oh, last question. Is the drop items better in the New York
huehuehue
its the same
Oh
nope! NYC is basically just more map once you finish WONY.
Is it worth buying
yes
absolutely yes, its basically just "more" of everything.
just wait until its on heavy sale.
Okey thanks!
Is there a list of DZ exclusive items? And any recommendations for an efficient farming method for named items besides summit and targeted loot?
On the DZ stuff: there's a pinned message in #td2-build-advice and it tells you where every named item is lootable from.
Targeted Loot and Named Item Caches during Global Events are your best bet.
Thanks
is it possible to turn off rain/fog in the dz. its annoying af
What's the best way to farm crafting blueprints?
challenging control points
What is the best weapon in this game ?
that's too vague of a question
Primary weapon preferably ar
if I stop by to pick up a resource convoy for the free watch exp, would you guys bother to clear the cp4, or just ignore it and go for another cp3?
assuming the goal is still blueprints
all AR's are pretty close to each other nowadays, starting out use a ar with the best stats you can find, mostly it having "damage to targets out of cover" as the third attribute with a decent talent, for what are considered the betters ARs : Famas, m4, sig 556 and carbine 7 are considered really good, especially with fasthands,
theyre all pretty close, use whatever you like
the most popular pick is famas and the other shit ikia said
kinda depends on how fast you can clear a lvl 4, if its not signifacantly longer you should be ok, but if you are only after blueprints, just hit 3 after 3
cool thanks.
and I assume I can never get one of those blueprints from a side mission in one of the cps, right? So never any overlap?
i believe that the mods that come from side missions and perks are outside the blueprint pool, but i haven"t looked into it to see if that is always true.
as far as im aware they are
i had a side mission left over for a bp for a very long time
and even thru CP4 spam it never gave me the bp from that mission
yeah, im under the same assumption, im just always hesitant to say outright yes with stuff like this that is pretty untested, just incase a few mods are blueprint pool + side mission or something
anyone know where the snitch is
its random for everyone
here are some of the locations he maybe be at, he has a chance to spawn when you get near one of the spots, and he hasn't spawned for you recently : https://rubenalamina.mx/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Map-Snitch-Cassie.png
but also if you are after cassie, keep in mind that she will not be open till tomorrow
if someone already has the nemesis and manage to get another one as a world drop can it be shared?
if the person you want to share it with is in your grp when it drops, yes
This maybe a stupid question but how do u access the clipboard on here
guys i have a few doubts, i am a returning player but i am still new , i stopped playing right before the warlords of new york update and i am getting back i wanted to ask if the new dlc is worth getting before i get to max level with base game see if i like it or does having the dlc help with progression or something?also i redeemed the game when it was given away on ubisoft connect i wanted to ask if getting the dlc on sale on epic store will still work or do i need to get it on the ubisoft store? like i am from india so the ubisoft store pricing is kinda high and the payment methods available also are a little limited for me so yea
Well hello there! I recently finished the WONY DLC and i'd like to get into the grinding etc but i really focused on the story so i have no clue about builds and stuff cuz i wanted to get 40 before minding it, so if someone feel kind enough to hop into the group voice channel 1 to answer my questions, i'd be pleased!
Have a great day !
i think not many of the regular helpfulls around here are on right now, as most are eu or us, im about to head to bed myself so i cant help, but i just wanted to point you to the the discord spreadsheet, its in the pinned messages in #td2-build-advice, and theres a guide by eph that answers allot of the common questions in the pinned message here in #ask-td2-community . good luck
Thanks a lot !
I have a weird problem, I have installed Div2, and it runs but is a bit laggy, so I went to reduce resolution but the settings menu comes up blank and doesn't render, any advice?
THe google doc is exactly what i needed to get started ! Thanks again and sweet dreams !
probably selected a non supported resolution by the monitor and accepted it by accident, try hitting alt+enter while the game is loaded and the active window, it should pop to windowed mode and let you get to the settings
Still no text in windowed mode either
text? i assumed you were getting a black screen, is it loading the menus but without the options texts there?
one option you have aswell, if its only a bug caused by resolution, is to go to " Documents\My Games\Tom Clancy's The Division 2 " and rename the file to state.cfg, that contains the resolution settings, to something else, this will make the game remake the file on next start and reset resolution to defaults.
or if you are proficient, you can alter the contents of the file to the resolution that worked before, the file contents are pretty self explanatory, just make sure to change width= and height=
yes, I'd post a screenshot, but can't post pics
you can use imgur and paste the link
that is a new one indeed, if it was after a resolution change, try reseting the file i said earlier, if that fails try verifying your game files trough the ubisoft connect, its under the properties section after you select div 2 in the games tab.
It is an old GC in that PC, but if the game loads, it implies that it should be ok, I am sure I upgraded from that card originally when I first got D2 because it was chonky, but I had menus then
Do u use any form of post fx like reshade
nope, just recent fresh install, no addons
dx12
I'd turn off dx12, can cause a bunch of issues currently.
yeah
reminds me of my old 7870, i miss that card
it's old, but still works
just recently fixed the fan on it
been waiting months for my new GC order, still nothing
hey if it works, it works.
but it does seem like its time for an upgrade
been trying to get one since Nov last year, have to get 2, and still waiting
apparently they are supposed to be here by the end of June... it's the 30th today...
"we said june, we didnt specify what year"
Intreegung
At this rate Cadia will fall before I get my new gc
praise the Emperor.

ngl, am enjoying Ad' Ridiculous right now.
Penitent here
How do you do the schaeffer mission? ||I can't use my skills and the hunter just rushes me and tanks everything||
does dark hours drop future initiative backpack and chestpiece?
No iron horse does
what does dh drop?
In the past it dropped negotiator's, aces, and tip of the spear chest/backpacks but now that can be found in the open world. It drops those too along with eagle bearer and blueprints for those gear sets
oh okay
so i need to wait 2 weeks to get regulus assuming i get future iniative backpack and chestpiece next week
or can i get the exotic parts even if i done the raid once b4
Exotic parts won't show up until you complete the previous projects: the future and foundry, then two more projects once you finish those and then you will get the regulus project
so I gotta wait 2 weeks 😦
You could always make alts to run more 1st clears of the week and hope to get the pieces you need to finish the foundry and future
ah
so i can play my 2nd character get the pieces i need finish the projects and then do it on my main to get the parts
Yep that's how I did it
For the regulus project make sure you grab all the keys, the chest at the end of the raid has an exotic part needed to craft it
guess now I gotta do it on my second character if thats even possible i only got it to lvl 40 never did anything past getting the shd watch
You could always farm for another dps/raid build or transfer your main build to that character
ill just transfer
is there comeplete black/white dye for gear ?
Doing artillery turret build.
1china,1 Wyvern with Glass Cannon, 2 Empress and 2 Hana? Is the waveform worth it instead of 2pc bonus?
most of the time yeh
Looks like I'm putting contractor's then.
there's a explosives build in the spreadsheet pinned in #td2-build-advice
you likely want 2 grupo for the explosive damage
Oh shit, that was an accident. Thought I was already typing in build advice. My bad.
is it normal that ortega costantly repeat about going to kenly college?
Well yes, but actually no.
im stuck how do you upgrade the crafting station from high-end to exotic?
you dont..?
i thought you could?
no, exotic isnt the top quality either, its just a neighbor to high end
Have you been cleared for transpo? 😂 yes he never shuts up about it
and I just realised I had the DZ recon mission bug.. my log says complete but I really never did them, just entered all the 3 DZ
seems a common bug but solution does not apply to me
That’s not a bug, that how those missions were changed at WONY launch. Their missions were changed to TLDR: “just enter DZ”
so no "go there do this" missions before really unlocking DZ to other players?
uhm.. understood. but it's weird because I never saw any other player around..
Correct.
thanks.. guess that should work even if you don't own WONY (I don't)
Well yea, cause DZ is base game, not WONY.
i don't know, something is wrong anyway..
I noticed my DZ points don't go up.. still 336 even after clearing 3 landmarks 😦
I went rogue for a minute total into an extraction point and no one killed me
definitely something is wrong 😦
landmarks dont give dz exp
let's a patrol
the entire DZ system was changed with WONY launch. id suggest reading the wony patch notes ( so patch TU8 iirc) #patch-notes
ok i'll do but.. clearing landmark doesn't give points but killing enemies? I cleared an elite patrol and still nothing..
DZ exp is only gained by killing players and extracting, maybe something else i forgot too. TLDR: dz exp is only gained viva pvp interactions now.
how exactly do i get the demon mask hunter to spawn?? ive already had the first encounter and i shot the 4 targets in order and nothing happened?
did i do something wrong
Hunters require very specific conditions. Theres some good youtube videos on him, Id double check there.
could you lead me in the direction of videos that will actually help
please and thank you
yep I read just now.. also supply drop gives points..
and last question: is it weird to be in the middle of the extraction point as rogue for more then a minute?
without no one killing me I mean?
Well pvp is always dynamic, so no.
this one covers them all (in DC): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzHBsCdcV7M&t=1129s
thanks
just did the whole build up to fight the first hunter...just to be one shotted and have to do it all over again
fml
if your arent yet, do them on normal difficulty, they are not worth fighting on high difficulty
if you mess up bad they will still kill you, but they are allot more manageable
hey is there a problem with US West servers? Everytime I start up my game I am put in central
div2 "USA is USA".
So Why is it I always saw US West but now I am in central with worse connection?
I'm with people 5 timezones away, so consider yourself lucky.
then what's the issue?
I am still online so I still lag because I am not in the US West server
Is there an option for you to find a better server in your agent menu?
Your choices are either "just go with it" or "contact ubisoft support".
Seems like you might have to go for the latter.
If there is I don't see it. Internet search says there is no easy way to do it and restart the game and I did. Still popping up in US Central
usually if the game puts you on not your nearest servers, its more a sign of your region not having enough servers up to deal with the player load, with the manhunts its always goes a bit wonky as player counts spike
OK that makes sense. Thank you.
its will only show you the option to find better server if the ping is above a certain number, it wont likely show it for you for when it puts you into another us zone
granted, in a lot of cases it's just because the game doesn't have any servers near you and you get used to the lag.
cries in Australian
Yes but there is US WEST server. I live on the west coast Rivens
we've given you the options on why it's screwy, it's up to you on how to proceed.
Rivens iKia gave me the answer I was looking for but you just tell me things that are 1) wrong or 2) irrelevant
Like saying that US server is just US
SOme people don't know the memes so why would you assume I do and give me faulty info?
I didnt give you falty info, mr grumpy. I told you to contact ubisoft support if other options are exhausted. They can explain it in full.
Kia explained everything else, because Kia knows quite a lot.
OK sorry I wasted my time
at the end of day, we're just players here. If a dev wants to talk to you directly, they will.
but the best we can do is just supply general advice.
Well your general advice at first was misleading think about that next time you want to "meme"
lol sure
how do i farm matts? im out of ceramics and ik it comes from factions but what do i do to farm said faction
just kill them, they'll drop it quite frequently
Solar farm cp then activate scavenger thing and open boxes, then farm normal cp’s
faction caches (the locked ones) drop plenty of that faction's materials too.
i would make a new character for the free shd scavenger matts but im not 1k yet so its not worthwhile
still worth
find a buddy to run it with ya, then just turn brain off
"find a buddy"
Laughs
Laughs in pain
if you'd do it after 1k, you may as well do it now, that character will still be useful (or MORE useful) then, so you're not really wasting any time by doing it now
what's the point in making a new character for that? do you stop getting the scavenging points at 1k?
no im not 1k yet
its to use the scavenger points on a new character for easy materials
but can't you just do it with an existing character?
i ran out of scavenger points
i got this
so when you make a character, run through the story, and get the watch, and you level up to, say, 1200
your main character has all the things maxed out, and 201 scavenger points past the "end"
then you spend all of those
0 on the watch all around
im not keeping the character. after i use all the points imma deletus
if you make a second/third/whatever character
run through the story, do all the things, get the watch
as soon as that cutscene is over you will have all 1200 points to spend
ye. shd level is account wide
i took the time to type it out yes it is a thing
i am eating too so that lends to its credibility
no denying that
why delete? Just leave them intact, you'll keep gaining scavenging points as your main character levels, and they have other uses too (eg raid loot an extra time per week, item mule for when your stash is full)
if I boost a character and beat wony, do I still get all the points?
interesting
because i dont do raids that often if ever
you dont get any """extra""" points
you just get boosted
but the points can get you scavenging rewards so people do it
only reason to delete is if you're at the four-character max and you want to level another character to duplicate mats again
imma hold onto one of them but the rest are gonna get yeeted
you can also get as many shd project exotic chaches as you have chars
its worth filling up all 4 char slots for that and each point being x4, but it takes time to get there offcourse, so its a time cost thing you have to decide yourself
but straight up deleting just to delete is a bad choice
you can have up to 4 chars
ik
what's that purple logo people has near their name, looks like a skull
orangeish skull

How do you farm for unlimited 100th floor in the summit? One player suggested it during an in-game chat but we didn't managed to do it because we were wiped.
I would guess they meant kill the hunters then you all stand together and throw grenades down? this is the first time i've heard anyone mention farming it.
You get to floor 100, get a group going and one person leaves before the last hunter is killed and re-makes the group. Or if ya wanna not depend on others and make it easier like I did you pay for a second copy of division and save your floor 100 checkpoint on that account and invite yourself/leave group
floors are account wide not character
is the shrapnel trap bugged/glitched. i've been told today in dz that the shrapnel trap is bugged/glitched because it kills people regardless of skill tier and that it will show as the person killed themself not the trap owner killing them
does hunter difficulty scale with world difficulty?
What mission do I get the EMP sticky from?
Roosevelt island. On manhunt mode going after Jupiter
It's a very annoying mission.
Thank you.
And I'll just run it on normal, loot doesn't really matter.
I wonder if there is so few player can't even find Manning National Zoo on challenging for 15 minutes.
90% of the matchmaking playerbase is on heroic or higher, add to that that roosevelt is targeted shotguns today, and the manhunt started yesterday and is not with roosevelt. and you basicly have no chance of finding matchmaking players, your best bet if you want someone to run the mission with, will be to do a call for backup
Is it possible to call for backup before get downed?
from the map, go to the shd tab, there press and hold g to call for backup

is the snitch attached to any ? points that are connected to a control point?
whats the snitch do? also does you SHD watch lvl go up quicker in the darkzone?
here are some of the snitch locations : https://rubenalamina.mx/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Map-Snitch-Cassie.png
checking those locations, no luck so far
everytime you get near one he may or may not spawn
how do i know if he does?
also he is time gated, so if he spawned recently, even if you missed him, he will be on a timer
if he does, he is there 😛
great, another thing i gotta worry about: timers
if you have more than one character available, swiitching will work to make sure hes not on timer
1, 2, 3, 4...
We counting?
just trying to get a perfectly unbreakable chest piece
guess i'll just throw myself at the summit again
Cassie selling it?
yea
Is rigger set good?
correct, her position is hte same for everyone, but if you go there without having found the snitch, she wont be there/visible
i talked with the snitch 3 times, did his bounties buy no shopping cart appears, any thing i need to do before hand?
you only need to talk to him for cassie to be marked on the map, the bounty is just an extra
are you lvl wt5/lvl40?
im 40 yes
https://rubenalamina.mx/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Map-Snitch-Cassie.png her location right now should be at the top right on your map, just to double cehck you didnt overlook it
finished WoNY so i assume im 5 as well, ok
right i dont think im gonna be finding the snitch any time soon. everywhere i go it's just an activity
He's like that charging cord for your phone that's been missing since 2012. You'll never find him when actively looking for him, but he'll turn up when you don't need him.
when does cassie change her inventory? weekly?
also do i need to do anything special to make him show up at all? like do a bounty first before he shows?
she changes with the rest of the vendors with the weekly reset
nope, gave up
i thought the ? marker has to be up in general for him to spawn at all
If you cant find him you could ask in lfg for someone who has found cassie and go to her on their world
I wonder if the DZ thing still works with the Snitch.
How does one fix the permanent fragile armor problem
re-logging fixes it, sometimes fast-travelling does too, I'm sure there's other methods but those are what I used.
guess I'm staying 4-broken, too lazy to go out of my fire team and join back
so reconfiguring 513 and 514 exotics will 99% give me a worst one? (I don't own WONY)
Reconfiguring Exotics just randomises the % of each stat.
i thought it got rid of the exotic as well
also if you have named weapons is there a way to get their relative blueprints? or do you still have to do the missions
nope but you still need to get rid of another one to acquire the exotic component needed for reconfiguration
so if i were to reroll the for example eagle bearer id need 2
2 exotics not 2 eagles..
scrapping every exotic weapon always gives an exotic component
2 random exotics or exotic components
also im lucky enough if i even get an exotic, i could never bare the thought of scrapping one haha
but the reconfigure process only needs 1 ex component
After long enough, you'll have enough excess Exotics that you can't give them away.
and be constantly at 20/20 mats.
i am far from that day haha
holy crap i managed to find him, the snitch
only just got carried to my first coyotes mask
I got lucky because I got liberty as rewards for something soon after crafting it and same for diamondblack, merciless, chamelon and chatterbox.. so I think if you do things you'll have them as well.. but only after crafting for the very first time or acquiring the blueprints
the journey to "too many Exotics" is what Div2 is all about!
enjoy the path there, it's the fun bit.
only just got the coyotes mask, backfire and sawyers kneepads, whoever they were all dropped for me by the guys i was running with
bless those dudes <3
Pass it on when you can, that's the good stuff.
i'll try
still trying to make my builds so i can do heroic stuff bymyself
or at least be more useful
There's a bit of a difficulty jump between Challenging > Heroic, so my advice is always "work until you can solo Chall' in a Group, then advance".
i can solo chall now
but the build still needs to get better
if i do her content i still need 1-2 people with me
there is something of a difference between soloing a difficulty and carrying a group in it.
you gotta be kidding me: ridgeway's pride needs several MORE steps just for the BP?
By the end of the Project, you get a fully made one.
man i just got the parts from the summit, so what are those for?
my HF build is no where near finished and optimized as well so im running it at like 50%ish capacity
to be able to do this?
Getting all the parts is the first step, then complete the Project.
summit 100 floor has the hunters?
I feel sorry for ppl that's spoiled for. I went in there blind and it was a hell of a shock.
but yeah, Floor 100 is what you need to complete once you have all 5 of the Ridgeways parts.
riven you always give me good advice
so my backfire has 11.3% smg dmg that i could max out, has max CHC and the attrib is 9% mag size is this worth optomising?
Happy to help! 
oh uh, Exotics stats never change, just the % of each roll you can get on them.
how far away on the meter is each of those %'s from max?
summit floor 100 has hunters?
Never optimize exotics
(i read that as reconfigure, ngl)
whys that?
Because reconfigure
Optimizing exotics is a waste of materials that could be put into other items
Since exotics can be rerolled
However, once you've got a bunch of junk Exotics and 20/20 mats, you do tend to fall back on Optimising.
all the optomising/reconfiguring is all still knew to me
Do you own WONY/are you level 40?
ya
unless witchcraft
tbh that was a copy+pasted thing
Kinda guessed, yea
do i just farm missions dropping smgs for the backfire?
ye
And if you have any more questions about it, i p much run the fanclub around here.
I mean, i'm the one who got Rivs the template, and they love it
i'll be sure to ask them!
I permit pinging me about 4 things- persona games
dark winter
backfire
And moderator shit
dark winter was the original gun i was tryna get for this build lmao
to be clear, Aspect and I are co-Presidents of the DW fanclub.
i have wonky hours so if you've got a question about it, i might be awake, i might have passed out. Who knows.
Dark Winter is DZ locked, yes.
however, Named Item caches also drop it.
havent been lucky enough to get it out of one yet
And since its a named item, you just have the 3rd attribute to worry about. Which should be DTTOOC
also DTTOOC??
"damage to target out of cover" most ppl just use DtooC.
ah gotcha
Yeah, bad habit
its a good roll on a lot of guns, worth the effort.
another silly question how do you get max stat gear mods
cause all mine are lowish
(Damage to health, armor, and target out of cover is so well liked because it is amp damage, or amplified, which means it is always multiplicative with everything, even other sources of amp damage and other of the same stat)
hahahaha
oh honey, that's a question that even people with hundreds of hours cant answer
^
haha this game makes my hope run out
for reals, the only "way" to get them, is to crank up the difficulty and set Targeted Loot to mods.
I've got 1 or 2. Armor regen is one, which is useless, i think i might have a second but idr what it is
ive got 4 i think, 2 CHD, some Firefly one and i think one for the Trap skill.
( in summit ) yes
the best way to get them is to forget about getting them and then be pleasantly surprised when you do get them.
for PVP, should I start off with EB or Famas in a fight. Logic tells me Famas to burst people down before they can fire back but EB for extra tanky if we see each other at the same time
I'm not very big on pvp but it'd make more sense to me to go in with the Tenacity buff from EB to reduce dmg while swapping to the FAMAS for some burst dmg.
best way to farm for pestilence ?
was DZ only but I read here you can also find in LMG loot targeted zones now..
DZ loot
Why is high crit chance and crit damage better than just going for straight weapon damage or headshot damage?
is there a way to keep on the scope toggles? I want to keep the C79 first person zoom even after unscoping
@summer basalt you want both a high crit damage and a headshot damage
So it’s fine to sacrifice a bit of crit chance?
Afaik. You can crit on headshots and bodyshots so ita better for constant damage because you cant always get heads. And for why chc chd over wep dmg... idk math reasons
how useful are accuracy stats on shotguns
Not
sounds great. meet my off-meta 100% accuracy shotgun build
So damn accurate it's almost like a sniper!
Iirc shotguns dont actually benefit from any accuracy increases
Like, they just... dont
:(
is there a way to toggle scope view though?
forever* rather than just a one-time zoom
they wd and crit arent exclusive like in ther games, and crit is overall more usefull because less efort and you can crit on everything, while you cant hs everything
And flat weapon damage will increase depending on your red cores so you don’t really need to worry about that right?
yep
I just watched a YouTube video on the nemesis saying I can target farm it is that’s true or do I need to do the quest first?
this is why you dont trust youtube
it will only drop from targeted loot if you own the blueprint for it
or if someone else shares you their nemesis drop
Ahh thanks for the help guess I’ll head to the basin
Ressource convoys on heroic world difficulty with as many directives active as you can handle.
ok ty
you get better gear drops from doing control points on heroic yea?
Need help with 4 hunters spawn in NY, setup done
i know i should ask in lfg, but no one responds
People are more likely to actively avoid your group if you post in the wrong place.
Your average quality of loot will increase by doing the tougher stuff, yeah.
so the roles will be better cool
effectively, the higher the Diff. is, the higher the lowest possible average roll can be.
so its entirely possible to get better rolls in Challenging than Heroic if you're unlucky.
i also heard there was more chance of good named items and exotics doing control points on heroic! that true or cap?
the only thing that Heroic CP's does better is that there's always a few Named Enemies, which have a nice loot pool.
outside of that, no real tangible higher chance for Exotics and Named's.
tl;dr
do Heroics if you can handle them, your overall loot will be better.
alright thanks!
id def need people to help me do heroic cause my build isnt amazing
I'd recommend dropping to Challenging until you can handle it with some ease.
As long as you're on that or above, you cut out all purple gear.
yea im always on challenging
As long as you have the "correct" pieces for a build, you can always fudge them to make them just good enough for Heroic.
im very much still farming gear for my builds
Gotcha. I didn't realize the importance of the talents until I was well into the game. I think they are the hardest part of getting a decent build going.
When I first started building a cohesive build I just looked at getting the correct main stat (easy as most gear has the same stat for main), and at least 1 secondary stat I wanted. Then I switched the 2nd secondary stat or talent to whatever I needed and just lived with whatever nonsense stat or talent I had. Eventually the perfect piece drops, but having a 2/3rds complete build made it much easier to take on Heroic without a lot of difficulty.
yea i get what you mean
which is what im trying to do build the frame of it and then slowly upgrade overtime
Theres a pinned guide with a bit of stuff about gear and builds if you like reading
It wont completely teach you all gearing related stuff but it might help in terms of build making logic and loot questions
Also, you don't have to immediately take on CPs on Heroic. It's really easy to do Heroic propagandas and whatnot which are super simple.
it just sucks cause i watch builds and they've got everything maxxed and im like i wont be like that for months
I look at it like an investment. You paid X dollars for the game. Do you want to have all the best gear in a week and get bored in 3 months?
exactly
i just tend to get mediocre gear that doesnt help me improve and dont want to constantly re-run the same mission over and over
It took me like 8 months pre optimization and loot buffs to get all my geat maxed
XD
Before optimization, I spent weeks and weeks just trying to get .5% better gear.
If repeating the same thing isnt appealing to you, looter shooters might not be the right genre
like i dont know how to get many of the good named guns and exotic guns
I was super happy the other day when I finally got a maxed out Protection from Elites until I realized I'll probably never use it.
no no its fun im just impatient haha
All the named items and exotics are detailed in the sheet
the massive xl spreadsheet?
It explains whats from DZ and not and has guides for mostly all exotics
The one in build advice
i'll have to sus it out
That spreadsheet killed my stash. Now I have all these named items and exotics I'll never use taking up space. But one day I'll figure out how to make them all good.
yea i stash all m,y names items
I have all my named items on my 3rd character
He has nothing but named items in his inventory
pack mule lmao
That's what I eventually had to do. Primary has my loadouts, Secondary has all exotics in case I ever need to reroll any, Third has all named items and kind of okay other gear. Fourth is my Hardcore.
Fourth is my "rerun wony for the 10th time for shd points"
When i want an item, il craft or loot a shit one and just pump optimization to max
Yeah, once I actually "Finish" hardcore and get the commonedations he'll just be my optimization mule.
Honestly, summit and optimization are curses in my opinion
Yep. They do "ruin" some of the replayability
Especially since they reduced the optimization costs.
Yea, and summit just killed world looting
I wish exotics and named items has specific drop places
Ala borderlands
so you just optimize any trash you pick up
Well, only very specific trash
like the best stat of it?
that'd be nice.
Orbit Shack is the new farming ground tho
Not exactly, you still want the correct stats/talents on your trash
I probably have gear to make any non blue build i need aside from very specific items
but if its trash whats the point of optimising it then?
Like i have god rolled sombra backpack and ceska chest but i wanted to try memento sombra chest, so i picked up a shit sombra chest with open talent and optimized it to max
Wtf is orbit shack
Trash with like 9% weapon damage, 3% CHC and 6% CHD can always be made into 15%/6%/12% pretty easily.
I optimized my Enforcer for example, very specific shotgun
the shack where all the Orbit's are stored
thought you could only optimise one stat though? so how would you bring them all up @scarlet knoll
sounds a bit like how it worked in Div1 actually.
oh
Yeah, recalibrate and optimization needs to work in sync.
but once you optimise you cant recalibrate it yea?
So i find chests and backpacks with chc and chd, optimize to max and keep talent open to be whatever i want
You can
You can recalibrate any non optimized stat
non optimised gotcha
The item can be optimized
I generally recalibrate first and then optimize to fill the gaps.
That's why it's important to fill your library.
yea i always fill my library
One of the happiest days of my life was when I filled all of the talents in the library. Took one more step out of loot dump at the end of a mission
so basically it goes get what you what and then recalibrate if needed ands thehn you optimise it
Depends on the item but yea generally that
Also do a sweep of all of the vendors when they change on Tuesdays. You never know when you'll find something good there.
You can check rubenalamina.mx and he had a weekly list
The reddit thread he makes has a breakdown of some good items too
Dz, campus, theater, NYC, cassie
where is cassie?
ahh gotcha
I thought this was funny. Yesterday I made point to actively search out the Snitch, and just as I found him, some dickhead BTs wandered by and he started fighting them. So had to fight them off and wait for him to decide to do his primary job again.
Yea he does that, ive found him multiple times by just hearing people shoot and running over
Felt like Starsky and Hutch coming to Huggy Bear's rescue.
just got a almost god rolled socom mk20 ssr just needs a talent change
has 15%MRD 111%HD and attrib is 12.5%mag size talent is currently eyeless
What's the purpose of the Haven upgrades in WONY? Is it worth getting them done?
the 3d Printer gets you a backpack charm if you interact with one of them later.
and you also get a dog to pet 🙂
OOOOOO YESSSSS
Wasnt that always a thing when you first get to haven?
where be this 3d printererererr
Front room of Haven
It's not the big ones. It's one of the small ones.
"Front room" as in the room you enter when you first get to Haven. Not the room with your stash and such."
Who the hell is Cindy McAllister and how does she always know what I’m doing
Kevin's sister, she got left Home Alone more.
Must be the drone operator
you can optimise guns more than once right?
cool thanks
you can optimise gear and guns fully into full god rolls.
If u spend ur entire life getting recal materials
haha yea i just optomised my backfire from like 11.3 smg dmg to 12.3 dmg
and now i need so many smg components
and hyenas tactical shit
Yup
Optimizing honestly is barely worth it unless its one or 2 opti away
If it’s like 4-5
Whats even the point
Its very worth it on gear that’s hard to get. (ie DZ items, Chest/Pack with correct rolls and talent).
That's a bit much. I'm what I would call a casual gamer and I don't have any problems getting the materials for what I need.
yea not hard getting the mats ALSO much easier if you use your alts for more watch points too.
Summit caches, Optimization caches from GE and season, Alt watch points.
I've never used the alt-thing since I've got 4 chars full of "stuff". so not a viable option. But I would like to add that don't just optimise because you can. Optimise the stuff you "need" for the builds you're running.
wdym by alt watch points btw
and yea i only optimise what i need
and if its actually worth it
A few places on the map is very good for mats. Take Solar Farm for example. Run around there a little and you'll get a ton of mats of different kind.
Talking about optimization
There's a way to use your watch level to get mats and optimisation points. Create a new char, boost it and run it to level 40. Then use then watch to buy mats and optimisation stuff, Then optimise the stuff you need and then move it to stash and delete char. Then rinse and repaet.
I know. You do realise you can craft a lot of the stuff from normal mats right????
Ye
Which makes it easier. And that was what I meant by "farming mats".
gotchaaaa sounds very lenghty haha
It's doable within 3-4 hours with the levelling, but get someone to help you that's already got a "high" level then it's easy to do the missions and get to level 40 quick.
Like I normally say "play smart, not hard". Using someone with a fully optimised build (whatever kind you like) will make levelling 30-40 an easy task. And since you don't need the stuff you pick up all can most likely be deconstructed for more materials for crafting optimisation materials, so it's kinda win-win. And when the char is "used to the fullest" you move items to stash and delete char and start over. But yes it takes a while to do it. Can't do it myself since I can't delete a char because of stuff on it. "Hoarding" has taken a weird turn for me lol
It's also, in my opinion, viable if you already have a "high" shd level. With that I mean 1500+ watch or so.
Because when you get the watch from Keener you automatically get the watch shd level from your account.
how to get maxed gear mods
find Targeted Loot mods, crank up the difficulty and stack on Directives.
same as everything else.
Mods can't be optimised so there's only "grinding" left 😄
lmao u wish
i only play heroic and out of the tens of thousands of mods only 3 have been maxed
But difficulty plays a big part. the higher the difficulty setting the better the rolls, normally.
Same way to get anything, Farm it on heroic target loot with as many directives as you can while still being able to speed clear. Except with gear mods, you could also add legendary difficulty (unlike with gear/ weapons).
What weapons/skills can stagger morazova:
Rav of course
Merciless i heard could but not very well
EMP Sticky
what is the best and favourite p416?
military or g3?
well we know that the last apparel event was resident evil, right?
did you tried to make your agent a UBCS soldier?
g3 is considered the best iirc
Eagle bearer
yeah, like with most weapons variants, police/military is slightly worse than custom/blackmarket
diamondback any good for an exotic? also how does it compare to say, The Bighorn?
Both are great and both are different. Also both require specific builds.
diamondback is miles ahead of bighorn for me, total diff beast
i didnt know adding directives also increased you good loot chances
just thought it gave you more xp
they changed it a little bit ago (after introducing it to the summit)
it doesn't increase the quality of loot
just the chances of a targeted loot piece dropping alongside regular loot afaik
yeah, but more loot = better chance of a good drop
yup
right. they're worth running as long as you can handle them and it doesn't slow you down too much; same thing with difficulty, as high as you can go while maintaining good speed
I need help getting the dark winter gun
only letting you know cause I can't remember you talking about doing dz, but dark winter is a dz exclusive so you won't be able to get it via summit
yea i know that haha
alright, cool. just wanted to make sure lol
Isn't Dark Winter dropped by Keener the first time you kill him?
thats the grudge
I have a Dark Winter, no idea how I got it since I never venture into DZ.
Named caches
season 1 reward, named caches, legacy caches, manhunt targets, plenty of spots outside of dz to get it
Honesty idek why they call it dz exclusive
90% of the time farming outside of dz is easier lul
Seems kinda counterintuitive
so what would you call em then?
its not that the name dz named is great, its just that there is nothing really better
🤷
also you may notice most of us that know what we are talking about, dont call them "dz exclusive", but dz named or dz drop
Something cuz dz exclusive seems dumb since the only way to get it is to farm landmarks/dz drops. But there’s so many more ways to get outside of dz.
Ik I was just talking about the game in general since dz exclusive is a little misleading
the game itself doesnt call them anything, its the players that came up with dz exclusive, just dont use the term, and maybe one day it will die off
Oh I thought the game called it thst
Is enemy's HP different depending on the enemy's type?
yes
The only items truly exclusive 1.bighorn(any legendary)
2.eaglebearer(darkhours)
3.regulous/ravenous,future initiatives and bulwark chest and backpack(Iron Horse)
Eagle bearer
Dark hours and Iron Horse are raids
is the side missions available after the end game?
yeh
nice thanks
can anyone please tell me what the goal project holster intel: Go West, Young agent thing is?
Dodge city holster
is it good?
fun? yes. good? mmm maybe
how do you answer backup calls dfrom camp whiote-oak?
ok if i have two loadouts using the the specialization (firewall) can i spec it differently for both loadouts or will it be the same?
it will be the same
shame
Does the weather affects the skill range?
Just how well you can see.
Piggybacking on that, do enemies suffer aim or accuracy penalties because of weather? 😛
I'd like to think that when it's night time and heavy rain with shit visibility, the enemies also have a harder time hitting me (though I'm guessing that's not the case.)
I'm 90% sure there is no enemy penalty depending on the weather, but it would be a neat thing.
I see. I have noticed that whenever there is a rain or dust storm the turret and drone tends to have a diminished range.
then again, if it did then we'd also have a penalty.
heres less visual so the mobs aggro you from a closer distance
how about: its raining so your skills suck
hi guys, im lv 35 right now. i got a question: i have some protocol mods found, but only found 2 items with a right slot in them to sock it. are items with this slot so rare cuz i barely find them?
only head, chest and backpack have mod slots
at level 40 yes, atm youre still leveling
ah ok, big thx 🙂 u really helped me
this is ecactly what already happens to the turret in heavy rain and sandstorms
rain and sandstorm decrease the aggro ranges and firing ranges of both ballistic skills and enemies
No I mean like, literally. Your skills are no longer waterproof and they just stop working lol.
but interesting info!
best way to farm the uh faction points? for optimization
Kill faction bosses
challenging, heroic. activity?
Any and any
can you only get one shield splitter or does it add it to your loot pool?
alright
different amounts depending on difficulty?
Probably, not sure
You can go into your inventory and read all the material sources
yes its diff dependant, 4 for heroic, 3 for chall etc...
also, faction nameds exluding cp4's
god dammit
What's the best mission/thing to farm XP for the season pass in your guy's opinions? (Don't want to grind one mission when there's possibly a better one that I probably haven't even looked at.)
resource convoy farming is basically undefeated for farming shd lvl
as they give double the xp they state they give, so heroic and 4/5 directives and jump around the map hunting them down, you will get into 20 lvls an hour with even just a little practice
Anyone know when the Dark Winter gonna be in the loot pool again
I was told earlier that named weapons currently not available in dz
Who told you that?
Nvm, I misread what they said
Its been a while since I played division, so I forgot what target loot pool was
all good!
basically, it's "DZ locked", which means you can also get it from Named Item caches.
Best of luck to you, it's a hell of an SMG according to me and 3 others.
Good hell, or bad hell
the former.
Nicu!
I love kriss vector. Its one of my favorite guns
My current kriss is purple big sad
+1
Dark winter pretty decent
-1
perfectly balanced
As alll things should be
⚖️ .
Dark winter bad
is there any other talent viable for Vektor platforms other than InSync and FastHands?
Perfect killer lul
lmfao good one
jokes aside, it is a good smg. Not the best, but it's solid.
Sadist on a bleed build
SMG best dps talents are (in no order): Killer, Strained, Status Damage ones, In Sync, Fast Hands, close and personal, unwavering,
Notable mentions: Preservation, Future Perfect, Measured
Exactly, thanks Azur.
Azur pin that plz
im quietly petting my DW in the corner, like a dog in a thunderstorm
There’s so many time I wanna use that and can’t remember it lul
what, and do all the work for you guys 😛 🧐
Yes my memory sucks
its all good Azur, I've already saved it in my collection. 😉
save it on a personal spreadsheet
Eagle bearer better
Azur is lowkey trying to say SMGs are garbage
doesnt mention Cold relations
SMG s gud just not as good as EB
nah SMG are better then EB
Nonononono
the hell is EB
eagle bearer
Eagle bearer better
but thats an AR...
Ik
EB is down there with optimist 🤣
i dont even have EB but in paper it seems like shit...
do u need kills or just hits to rack up dmg res?
yup EB very fun weapon, just wish it was better 😢
hits prep the dmg res, HSD kills proc the buff.
And the buff is good
ive heard its decent in pvp, but it's really not that great in pve from what I've tested it out.
i kinda like that, gun's can have niches.
seen a lot of peeps run it in PVE
legendary mostly
It’s pretty balanced in pvp
i see people with purple gear on in Leg' lol, I ain't taking pubs words for it.
Purple gear?
it sounds overpowered in PVP ngl...
Lmao
imagine blue build with it
like, not yet high-end gear.
Not really cuz the DPS lacks
exactly
so you build blue and protecc your partner
literally immortal with a shield
unless the enemy is a tech with stinger hive then its over for u both
And eb was clear win conditions if u see someone light up red run and msg dump from a distance
And they die to tenacity
light up red?
But if ur a new play or just dumb u push a guy on eb buff and ofc he wins
When u procc tenacity u light up red
just need a head shot kill, not too hard to do BUT EB doesnt help you get your 1st kill.
you aint getting that kill before dying
Why it’s balances
Talent can be hard to procc
But when u procc it oh boy
oh boy noone will be near u to make use of it
specially since u gotta down 3 more peeps to not die
maybe 2 if ur lucky
You have to down 3 peeps to negate damage. Not dying is a personal problem.
Get revived by teammates or just respawn
Lack of aggression and everyone being a scaredy cat is the biggest problem for people trying to use EB.
Yup
But oh well eb still best gun in game
Debatable but thats a broad topic
