Which is the best way for getting a good assault rifle? I got black market AKM with 18K but I need better.

hallow grove

#

what is the best vector smg?

#

Tactical, SBR .45 ACP or SBR Vector 9mm?

foggy needle
#

The ones with base mag size 33 and 25, forgot which names. the one with 19 mag size is ONLY good with unwavering talent

oak talon
#

the 19 (tac 9mm) and 25 (0.45) are the good ones in my book, the 33 (9mm) has nothing on them except on beating them on dmg per mag, and for the 45 its barely

#

the 19 tac is great for what the vectors are only good at, super burst

#

but all of them are poor too ammo hungry for pve

errant sorrel
#

some remember when we are using the Decoy skill? appears an hologram of agent that using a dark green shirt?

#

this apparel only appears on the trailer?

unborn dune
#

wdym?

#

the decoy skill is in the game

grand nebula
#

Id have to see the shirt but I think its not an apparel you can get

How much armor does a Challenging freeroam Rogue Agent have?

anyone know the drop chance of Future Initiative in the raid?

rare remnant
#

ok so maybe I'm wrong about the named backpack matador ....but I farmed DZ west pretty much all day (back pack targeted loot) taking down challenging and heroic landmarks and not a single one dropped .....leveld up like 70 shade levels just doing DZ landmarks.....does that backpack not drop DZ exclusive anymore ????

celest knoll
#

im assuming the same thing has happeend to me all comes down to drop chance

#

ah just great

hmmm ok I will keep farming

Does anyone know if you can disable a mission that is being replayed? I accidentally started a mission into replay mode but I need to get into the mission area to grab collectibles but I don't want to have to do the entire mission.

#

question, can you optimise stats and THEN extract them? ie grinding everything instead of waiting for god rolls

#

stupid q probably

true siren
#

you cannot

inner tendon
#

devs were 1 step ahead there

errant sorrel
#

What uniform of UBCS looks better? Original or Remake, because I was trying to make a cosplay for my agent

true siren
#

thats up to you

errant sorrel
#

What that means?

true siren
#

It means there is no answer to that question

inner tendon
#

but why male models?

gentle mulch
#

what causes fragile armor to break

#

or does it just bug out because it can

inner tendon
#

yeah literally just a bug.

gentle mulch
#

I mean is there anything that causes the bug? maybe something like bonus armor or unbreakable?

#

or does it just bug out

inner tendon
#

I don't recall there being any definitive reasons, but I've heard it has to do with fast travelling.

#

why kenly chapel is locked?

#

i have completed the kenly college but every time i teleport to white house, isac says "Agent, pilot Torres is cleared for transpo to Kenley College" how can i stop? this is so annoying

spiral canopy
#

hey guys a question about hunters and keys.. I was playing without WONY and triggered 4 hunters but one of them didn't drop a key, it was Angel..

#

now I bought WONY, went to new york and find the Angel mask on the wall.. I thought hunters were different from DC to NY.. anyway still no key for the NY cache..

#

I checked often if the key was on the ground in DC but now more then a week passed already and I don't think it will show up.. I also tried to check for lion eyes but they are not there anymore..

#

I'll never be able to open that cache, am I right?

noble iris
#

so, my frined has the entire sharpshooter skill tree upgraded but he doesnt have the pistol in his inventory. anyone know why? or how to fix this?

exotic olive
#

its in his stash...?

spiral canopy
#

i would try to reset the pistol element maybe

noble iris
#

he fixed it

#

we gucci

spiral canopy
#

we armani 😉

random sapphire
#

ok so i only just noticed this and correct me if im wrong but when looking at gear attributes the little arrows on the roll level does that point to your max % of the skill you have in your library and then the orange arrow means you've maxed that stat in the library???

grand nebula
#

Yes

#

Which is also explained in the guide pinned here xd

#

Along with the owned talent symbol

random sapphire
#

well as seen in my question i havent read the guide haha

noble iris
#

skill duration affects status effect right?

grand nebula
#

no

noble iris
#

good to kmow

#

does it affect foam ?

grand nebula
#

nope

noble iris
#

damn

grand nebula
#

foam is a status

noble iris
#

i see

supple bane
#

how do i farm recal matt blueprints?

supple bane
grand nebula
#

none

spiral canopy
#

for mods that go to gadgets you could have btw two different mods for two different spots with the same effect..

grand nebula
#

indeed

supple bane
#

is there a way to sort mods by the quality like say i have a 6% chc, 5.4% and a 3.8 % it would appear in order of worst to best

grand nebula
#

nope

supple bane
#

reeeeeeeeeeee

#

sorting out my mods is gonna take forever

inner tendon
#

welcome to half of your playtime now.

spiral canopy
#

you can filter

#

I find it useful

supple bane
spiral canopy
#

if you filter them you can see where you have more then one and scrap what you don't need

#

you filter them by effects

supple bane
#

ik. but i still have 10 hsd so i need to scroll up and down

spiral canopy
#

wow 10?

#

I try to keep them no more then 2

supple bane
#

thats why im sorting them

spiral canopy
#

I don't know if you tried already but there's the option to sort by if you go to inventory / mods box

#

it's the X on PC

supple bane
#

Ik you can sort by effect

#

Im trying to sort by the amount of said effect they give

spiral canopy
#

i don't know but that's a filter not a sorting

#

what effect should be first? or last? based on what?

supple bane
#

The amount of the wffect they give

#

Say i have a 11.3% mod, 5.8% and 6.7% it would sort them highest to lowest

spiral canopy
#

i never had 10 of the same kind but when I do the filter thing is already like that

#

of course of the same effect, otherwisde you need to spend some time 😉

marble shadow
#

how do weapon mods work? are they consumable?

spiral canopy
#

nope and they are in common, you can use in multiple weapons, scrap the weapons and you still have the mods available

marble shadow
#

ok thank you!

supple bane
#

in summit i just saw a convoy warhound for some reason. any idea why?

inner tendon
#

That's just a Warhound, not a Convoy.
They're a semi-regular BT unit.

oak talon
#

they will also drop special ammo on death

inner tendon
#

that too

supple bane
marble shadow
#

what's a good way to dump protective fabric and receiver components? i seem to keep maxing out

oak talon
# supple bane welp. it left as soon as i saw it

you only have a few seconds once fighting starts, they will first hunker down for 2-3 seconds and then hoof it to a exit, what you can do is disable them with a jammer pulse or tech grenade, or just have the dps to kill em quick

inner tendon
#

Basically, look at your recal table and see what you need to make your stuff better. I'm sure you'll start using them fast enough.

oak talon
marble shadow
#

ok thanks guys, yeah was just wondering if im wasting it by being capped

marble shadow
#

how does one unlock different types of grenades?

inner tendon
#

some are locked to Spec Trees, most are just ingame as you level.
you access them by Inventory > then picking which one you want.

marble shadow
#

is the manhunt thing seasonal? seems awesome, basically like another wony

#

"concealed agenda"

nimble spruce

#

this game has so many things to do man. i am SWEATIN

mystic lodge
#

How do I get a bunch of crit chance?

inner tendon
#

mods, rolls, some from your SHD watch.

#

it caps at 60% anyway.

does anyone know if any of the venders are selling backpacks with adredaline rust talent??

sadge

#

no goodies for me

#

but thanks for the link!

median widget
#

In the mentioned spreadsheet in the pins, what does the LZ mean?

#

In drop location next to the DZ, I know that's dark zone

inner tendon
#

It's a slang term for "not dark zone" basically.

#

"light zone", yeah kinda lame but it makes sense if you squint.

median widget
#

So LZ means they drop Form targeted loot?

inner tendon
#

Sure, also means they can drop from anywhere outside of that too, just more likely.

proven loom
#

It just means it can drop outside of the DZ

median widget
#

ive seen a yideo where they had the effect that you restore x% of your shield while active every y seconds, but i cant fanind the video again, can you tell me where you get that from so i dont have to look through the whole spreadsheet since im level 29 noob still but wann aprepare for a build later on

proven loom
#

Don't try farming for gear until you're Lvl 40. What ever gear you try and get now will be no real use later

median widget
#

no, i dont wanna farm it now, i jsut wanna know what exactly im going to farm once im 40

proven loom
#

Honestly, I don't know what is is you're asking for. Was it a talent or a gear set?

mild oriole
#

its one of the skill called artificier hive.

proven loom
#

That's the special skill for the Technician Specialization

spiral canopy
#

but it's also a common mod for the shield called active regeneration, isn't it?

proven loom
#

Active Regeneration, yeah

spiral canopy
#

by common I mean no need for TS

#

does someone know if the guy running with a huge backpack and waving at you while shooting with a pistol a shot is some sort of ester egg?

#

he says somethinbg like I stole all your shit

fallow inlet
#

The guy with the backpack was known with the xmas elf and they just kinda left him in game for a time to time surprise

#

At Xmas time he gives a special weapon

inner tendon
#

Obligatory: just the ones with the santa hat, the backpack weirdos are here all year round.

spiral canopy
#

oh I got it thank you both 😉

inner tendon
#

nw, actually the minor factions in div2 are fascinating.

fallow inlet
#

Anytime your near a sewer he might pop out

spiral canopy
#

yea they all love sewer in TD2

inner tendon
#

like the Scav's in the DZ.

stiff cedar
#

by any chance did he give you an smg called the sleigher

fallow inlet
#

YUP

stiff cedar
#

oh so that's where that came from

#

I've had a level 30 one with literally 0 on all rolls sitting in my stash

inner tendon
#

it was meant to just be a chiristmas meme weapon, but kinda stuck around.

fallow inlet
#

Only way to get it

spiral canopy
#

nope never.. I got the blueprint for that weapon with field research if I recall correctly

#

oh wait

inner tendon
#

all good, yeah they dont drop weapon BPs.

spiral canopy
#

then it's a different weapon with siomilar name.. LMG?

fallow inlet
#

Afternoon Rivens

inner tendon
#

if they had a santa hat on, it was (probs) the Sleigher, if not then could be anything really.

#

morning Saph.

#

i always get confused between Scavs and Underground, im pretty sure backpack ppls are Underground tho.

fallow inlet
#

No he's thinking of the lmg

#

It's spelled a little different

spiral canopy
#

yea I just googled, you mean the snowball thing..

#

totally something different

fallow inlet
#

Oh don't forget the chainsaw dude

inner tendon
#

yerp, Scav heavy.

#

theres one guarding a SHD cache in WONY.

fallow inlet
#

That's where you get your flashliggt

#

For your pistol

grand nebula
#

hey saph how are you doing today

fallow inlet
#

Very sir and yourself

grand nebula
#

all good too ^^

fallow inlet
#

I get to goto work in 30 mins

#

Test driving cars

#

Hey Eph and Rivens have you re-download all the rewards from uplay

#

They added some new stuff

inner tendon
#

neat, thanks Saph. I'll reinstall and take a look.

#

do you happen to know whats new?

fallow inlet
#

Just the Downloadable stuff

#

Added art songs

#

And other wierd stuff

median widget
#

for the striker shield, can u use only the flamethrower or also other weapons like with the crussader?

spiral canopy
#

others too

#

not LMG and not Marksman

inner tendon
#

Striker is basically a better version of Crusader, identical apart from the damage buff.

fallow inlet
#

New thumb nails

#

The keener 1 is kool

#

And there new fan packs if you stream

median widget
#

thats cool cause im am not sure wether i wanna go tanky with the gunner for repair on kill, with the engeneer for healing the shield or with the upgraded shield ^^

fallow inlet
#

If you wanna go tank do you have your bukwark

inner tendon
#

generally speaking, Striker shield is used for DPS with a couple of blue cores too. The buff is great and makes up for lossed Reds.

median widget
#

and do these exotics always have the 2 minors? ive senn a build where he had all 3 things listed there but in another video the person only had the red one

#

ah i cant send the pic for that ^^

#

the item is the momento with all 3 cores listed

inner tendon
#

minors? oh attributes? Yeah Exotics always have the same stats, just different %'s
Memento is unique.

median widget
#

unique in what way?

proven loom
#

Momento has all three major attributes

#

Armour, Weapon and Skill Tier

unborn dune
#

and no minor attributes

median widget
#

and if i kill another enemie in the 10 secs the buff is active for bonus armor does another pickup stack up or does that refresh the timer of the 10 sec buff?

unborn dune
#

they stack

median widget
#

dope, that build ive seen with it and true patriot looks cool

#

can i reg the bonus armor with evelines guard too till the duration runs out or is that not repairable?

proven loom
#

Momento gives you two buffs. A permanent buffs that stacks up to 30 times and a temporary buff based on your core attributes

#

And no Emiline's Guard does not keep the bonus armour you receive from Momento. Emiline's Guard gives you bonus armour on kill where Momento gives you bonus armour from picking up your kill trophies

median widget
#

yeah but while i have 50% temporary overshields form that cna i repair the overshieds with the evelines gurad? and do evelines and the gunner 10% passive stack up to

#

22 percent

proven loom
#

Emiline's Guard does not affect your bonus armour from Momento

median widget
#

and for momento i would farm targeted loot for backpacks?

proven loom
#

It's a Season Track reward

median widget
#

but ive seen its season 3 and afterwards ive seen season 4 in a video

unborn dune
#

but it's also this season's reward

#

so just farm to level 90

median widget
#

ah allright, how long is that season and how long does it take to get lv90? and od i need to buy a bonus battlepass?

proven loom
#

I only play about 3 hours a night and I hit level 100 just a few days after the second target was released. That was this past week. We still have the 2 week global event and 2 more targets. So you have plants of time

median widget
#

i still need to do the dlc with my friends too tho ^^ hope im not late

proven loom
#

All game play counts for your season level

median widget
#

and i get it directly with maxed stats and dont have to grund multiple to get the most efficient?

#

oh cool, i havent seen a seson anywhere ingame yet

#

so once i hit 40 i can get all the rewards already?

proven loom
#

Hahahaha oh I wish it was maxed stats

#

You will still need to optimize it

tulip fiber
median widget
#

man i hope ill make it to 90 before it ends

#

that sounds reall yreall ycool

proven loom
#

You have plenty of time. At least 3 more months

median widget
#

oh, allright, ithought its the 2 weeks

spiral canopy
#

all this requires season pass or something?

stiff cedar
#

no you just need to get to level 40

#

the season pass gives you some bonus rewards like caches and cosmetics

spiral canopy
#

or classified assignments

#

k thanks

proven loom
spiral canopy
#

uhm.. so the 8 missions Fall of the DC from where come from?

#

I'm reading from the store the content of year 1 bundle

tulip fiber
#

Yeah, year 1. However, the premium pass can be purchased separately in the store. Which will give you the extras as mentioned above. If you purchase the premium pass at any point during the season, you’ll get the rewards up to that point.

spiral canopy
#

yea this system of dlc season pass year 1 definitive edition is already annoying to me 😄

tulip fiber
#

Yeah, when I bought the game it was $3, and I just paid for the DLC separate.

spiral canopy
#

same as me, just the bse game and then today the dlc

#

I got all my gear fine and then I went to NY and got to use a blue weapon instead of my exotic!!!!

tulip fiber
#

Keep the exotics, because you should be able to upgrade them to level 40 when done with NY

spiral canopy
#

yep of course.. it seems it doesn't let you upgrde to mid levels like 34 or 36 but yea I stored them

tulip fiber
#

Better to do it all at once anyway though

arctic tusk
#

for running healer, why don't most builds run revive hive?

unborn dune
#

because usually the dps players have them

#

and you can just reset them at need with btsu gloves

arctic tusk
#

you can? how does the BTSU gloves work exactly? I have them and used them a few times but don't know how

tulip fiber
#

When you break your hive, you overcharge skills, if at tier 6, and reset hives for teammates. It can only be done once every 2 minutes.

supple bane
#

on lady death did it not use to be speed buff on melee kill?

inner turtle
inner turtle
arctic tusk
inner turtle
#

weapon talent

arctic tusk
#

wait so I'm confused. im just trying to understand how btsu gloves work

inner turtle
#

but people dont use it cuz you need a kill while your damage output is low and also because you dont accidentally wanna overcharge when your team needs it

#

there are 2 ways to overcharge in game, fp or btsu

arctic tusk
#

oh i know about overcharge, i just dont know how to use thr btsu properly

inner turtle
#

i see

#

just kill yiur hive

arctic tusk
#

doesn't that get rid of all your charges though? i only used the revive hive in summit since no one else does

true siren
true siren
inner turtle
true siren
#

Energize on backpack, acosta's

#

Wait is energize a backpack talent?

#

Well, energize regardless.

inner turtle
#

yes

#

i think it uses armor kit

#

idk about Acosta

#

never used it anyway

true siren
#

It overcharges, i know for a fact

inner turtle
#

how tho

arctic tusk
arctic tusk
true siren
#

It'll overcharge you whole team, regardless of skill tier, IF you are tier6

true siren
inner turtle
#

👀

#

would still use btsu tho

arctic tusk
inner turtle
#

future perfection build then

arctic tusk
#

also dumb question but skill damage doesn't affect healing right

inner turtle
#

yea

ornate juniper
#

how the fuck is that regardless of skill tier if you need skill tier 6

marble shadow
#

regardless of your team’s skill tier maybe

tiny granite
#

@ornate juniper He means it will overcharge even if they are skill tier 0,1,2, etc.

ornate juniper
#

ah fair

tiny granite
#

Same thing happens in pvp

#

Except instead of overcharging, everybody gets bumped up to skill tier 6

fallow zodiac
#

does future initiative stack if u have multiple people running it?

fallow inlet
#

No

#

Fi is used for healing

#

Coyote mask does

inner tendon
#

Obligatory: Coyotes doesn't actually stack, however different people can "share" each different type of buff.

#

(e.g. one person gives the first, another the 2nd, 3rd a 3rd.)

fallow zodiac
#

ah so you can have all 3 different buffs simultaneously but not the same one multiple times?

inner tendon
#

As long as 3 ppl on your team are using it (and they're all proccing different buffs): yes!
Which is why it's so common in Raids.

fallow zodiac
#

last question, is there like an update google sheets or excel or something that has all the equipment pieces and brand sets and weapons? i remember there used to be one before Wony but im not sure if that one has been updated

inner tendon
fallow zodiac
#

thats huge

inner tendon
#

it is genuinely the only one you'll ever need, anything that's not on there can be answered on this Discord.

#

oh and there's a bunch of builds there too you can try out. Under "Hub".

fallow zodiac
#

this is actually gonna be a life saver thank you so much

inner tendon
#

you're welcome! Make sure you thank the ppl who made the thing too, it's basically the div2 Bible.

fallow inlet
#

EPH is working on an awesome one

halcyon saddle
#

can you still save checkpoints in summit on another character

exotic olive
#

depends are summit checkpoints Character side or Account side ?

median widget
#

Regarding the season stuff leveling is that bount to the account or each character? Could I make a pre leveled char for the dlc and start with the farm and then continue once my main char reached 40?

inner tendon
#

You need to be max level to access the Season Pass stuff.
So Lvl 40 in your case. (and have finished the WONY campaign)

median widget
#

But is it for all lv 40 chars?

inner tendon
#

Season Pass tracking is account-wide.

median widget
#

Dope, then I start leveling up another char to unlock stuff and I think on lv 40 I can share resources and blueprints to the other one just as if I have unlocked them there too right?

inner tendon
#

uh it's been way too long since ive done anything like that, can't 100% confirm it, but it sounds about right.

#

just remember: you have to actually complete the WONY compaign in full to access the Season Pass.

How I can enable gear mods in new york? I can't use my gear mods.

lethal mirage
#

Hiya, when modding SMG, and I have to choose between weapon handling, stability and accuracy, which one works best for SMG's?

inner tendon
#

The stat called "damage to target out of cover" (mostly just called "dtooc") is your best choice there 90% of the time.

lethal mirage
#

is there a mod for that stat? I haven't unlocked all weapon mods yet so I have no idea

grand nebula
#

the weapon mods slots are usually reserved for the 20mag, and full crit

median widget
#

shall i play through world tiers? or head to the dlc with my frineds? after hitting lv30 and doing all missions. do i unlock targeted loot after new york?

grand nebula
#

you can get some accuracy aswell but usually handling wont be too benefitian in smal amounts

#

for SMGs atleast

inner tendon
median widget
#

but jsut for the story?

#

do i have a benefit of doing them when i get to lv40 anyways afterwards?

inner tendon
#

If the idea is that bad to you, skip them and come complain here later that the game doesn't have enough content.

grand nebula
#

lvl40 has no world tiers

lethal mirage
#

Thanks Eph, you made me realize I can adjust my equipment mods to get crit from weapon mods. There's just so many ways to adjust gear in this game!

grand nebula

do them once for story purposes

random sapphire
#

tryna write a in depth dumbed down guide for one of my friends

grand nebula
#

sure, what do you need?

random sapphire
#

is the build guides on a special format or just custom made

grand nebula
#

well its ''custom'' in a sence

#

theres no special format to it

#

just some title font, screenshots and bold/underscored text

random sapphire
#

dope cause i want to make it look nice and professional like youve done

#

so i thought id ask the master himself

grand nebula
#

you can save a copy of each to your account

#

and alter it as you see fit

random sapphire
#

you can do that?

#

that just feels wrong

grand nebula
#

yea it should be up in the options

#

when im feeling lazy il copy one of my own and alter it instead of writing it fresh

random sapphire
#

haha i mean if you're the owner of the doc thats understandable

grand nebula
#

i dont hold any copyright to any of it

#

feel free

random sapphire

alright thanks heaps!

hey guys >I just reached level 40 and was curious to finally check how optimization works and if worths it (I read a few of you says that it doesn't) but I have nor alloies nor weaves!

#

LOL does it mean all the gears and weapons I scraped until now were useless for those?

#

I received them, I'm pretty sure by the scrap report you check everytime

#

and another question about the manhunt.. I see the first rogue is ended but from the season menu I'm still able to do it.. it only means I'll not receive the cache and special rewards? I'm talking about shade

nimble spruce
#

only thing to note when they become available is you get double xp up to 15 levels that week, but that's xp from any source, so it really doesn't matter if you do the manhunt objectives or not

#

can't help you on the optimisation materials question, sorry - seem to work fine for me, but was in endgame long before the optimisation table was added

#

I think maybe scrapping yellow gear gives better materials than purple/green/blue, so maybe that's true of the opt materials too

spiral canopy
#

alloies are only from yellow, I'm sure of it..

#

I think I got it.. you receive alloies only from maxed weapons, so mine were maxed at my level wehn i scraped them but still lower then 40

#

not sure at all.. but I just tried to scrap old weapons level 30 and didn't receive them..

well, optimisation materials are supposed to be hard to come by, I think the system is intended to act as a support for players who have bad luck with RNG - if you farm for ages and only get useless stuff, at least you can use it to optimise

#

bearing in mind that searching for better gear is one of the key things that keeps people playing the game, so they want it to be a slow process

spiral canopy
#

I don't have a problem with that, I just wish I knew, they add all sort of warnings if you're capped, if you have them saved in loadouts, two more lines were fine

Can anyone explain to me why in the specialization menu - with three specializations (gunner, firewall, technician) I have only 3 points out of 165 needed? I have an active 1 year package with these specializations, but cannot get the points needed to upgrade my skills to 165/165. A few minutes ago I finished field testing for the firewall and thought the points would show up, but it's still 03/165 ... Help!

tulip fiber
#

I think the year one was for sharpshooter, demo, and survivalist. Correct me if I’m wrong. You need to level up the specializations through XP grind.

nimble spruce
#

the year one package just means you can start using the specialisation without doing the field testing (otherwise they start locked)

Tactically speaking, what is the best way to take down machine gun heavies while running an SMG / Hunter's Fury build?

#

I'd rather not face tank them, even with a shield.

stiff cedar
#

hide in cover close to them and blindfire, abuse cover-to-cover if they come close

#

probably other ways but that works for me. otherwise I just pull out my scorpio and it dies

supple bane
#

how do i get optimization matt blueprints?

stiff cedar
#

cp3s probably the easiest way

supple bane
#

what world difficulty?

stiff cedar
#

challenging cause that puts them all at alert level 3

supple bane
#

ez

#

directives needed?

stiff cedar
#

only if you want

#

no reason not to if they don't slow you down too much. may as well make some exp at the same time

supple bane
stiff cedar
#

no regen and fog of war shouldn't slow you down too much unless you rely on the minimap to find enemies

#

no regen just means you have to use an armor kit or fast travel to a safehouse after every cp

#

and if you're using a dps build I doubt you'll need skills so.. also cool skills

#

and maybe special ammo.. since that one's usually not too bad...

#

honestly pistolero is the only one that should slow you down. but do what's best for you

tiny granite
#

Is Protector a good talent? I'm not sure what to think of it

oak talon
tiny granite
#

Let's say it's a full Crit tank with 2.1 mil armor, all high end

oak talon
#

if you want to go the dmg route, adrenaline rush and intimidate is the way to go

tiny granite
#

Actually I made the build to give the team the most amount of bonus armor possible

#

I tried Galvanize(my favorite so far), Leadership(best in raids), and Protector but I don't know if it's worth 3 sec

oak talon
#

then galvanise is also one to look at, alongside vanguard chest that im gonna guess you already have

#

protector is decent, that short timer means also that its refreshing constantly as long as you are taking dmg, but galvanise just is alot more bonus but isnt "automatic"

#

and leadership means dropping shield, so not always usable while also tanking

tiny granite
#

Yeah but it reaches everyone and it's "free"

#

I literally only use it for raids

oak talon
#

yeah, no dont get me wrong, especially in raid leadership is fine where you arent always in full on tanking mode, so you can cover to cover inbetween wave and such, but if you go legendary tanking then its harder to find the time to procc it.

tiny granite
#

So if I were to go the damage route, wouldn't Protector be better than adrenaline rush?

oak talon
#

adrenaline rush is allot more bonus armour, but just for you, and more reliable as even if they dont shoot you you have dmg bonus

#

and there are allot of things that dont straight up shoot, like huggers and grenaders, droners etc.

tiny granite
#

Oh I thought explosives triggered it

#

I don't remember...

oak talon
#

any dmg to your shield yes, but they arent continously firing at you, and adrenaline proccs and lets you kill them at within 10m, protectors only after they dmg you

#

but protector is the whole team, so its a personal choice which one you want

tiny granite
#

Guess I'll try it then, I prefer adrenaline rush anyways for just pure tanking anyways with bulwark

#

Oh that reminds me

#

Which is better? Gila and Belstone with Adrenaline rush or Belstone and Armor rolled Matador?

shrewd orbit
#

Point man for perfect vanguard, belstone backpack for the 1% regen if that's an option for you

tiny granite
#

Oh no Pointman not for this one

oak talon
#

personally, i dont think gila is ever worth it, that 5% armour is only 100k at 2m, as such i would say belstone and ceska/grupo/dh brands for more punch

tiny granite
#

I was considering gila because it would increase Belstone 1% regen

#

Even if ever so slightly

oak talon
#

also d&h over w&h (matador) especially on pistol, as its an even bigger gap of 5 wepdmg to 20 pistol, that are in the same pool

tiny granite
#

Oh no no

#

This build is pure tank

#

No reds lol

oak talon
#

you brought up matador, my point on it still stands

tiny granite
#

Only considering it for the extra 9% bonus armor

oak talon
#

also there are no real good second tank brands available, so go with belstone gila

tiny granite
#

Mm k

#

Are the bulwark chest and backpack worth a damn?

#

I've never seen anyone use it

oak talon
#

theres your asnwer 😉

#

the chest can be ok, its just that HE talents are better and there is no good other item to use, at best you can go FB chest/bp and emp gaurd + bestone chest/backpack for a 3% regen tank, but there is no content in the game that needs that much tanking

tiny granite
#

If I can't tank 3 legendary heavies, it needs more tanking petter

supple bane
#

got a couple q's:
Does specialisation progress carry over characters so if i have a fully maxed firewall on my main will i also have a fully maxed firewall on a 2nd character
and
Do unlockable skills carry over? such as shrapnel trap

marble shadow
#

what’s the advantage of creating an alt? am i missing something? i thought you can just switch specs and gear basically instantly

marble shadow
#

oh the scavenging thing?

supple bane
#

mhm

marble shadow
#

that stops after 1000? i thought itd just continue

supple bane
#

if youre shd 1k as soon as your character beats wony thats 200 instant scav points

supple bane
marble shadow
#

ah ok i c i c

#

and then you can transfer resources between characters and funnel?

supple bane
#

i think you need to buy the matt share first. not 100% on it but thats what i would to just to be safe

oak talon
#

also, for those that play allot, it gives you more to do, and if you like builds, build slots

inner turtle
#

basically storage wagons

marble shadow
#

oh yeah you’re right, they should make it 1500

inner turtle
#

nah its fine previously we used to have 100 inventory space

stiff cedar
#

but one of the main advantages of making alts is that once they get to 40, they share shd level; in other words, you get a bunch of scavenging points that you can then use to get materials for all of your characters (assuming you buy shared materials from inaya)

#

it's easily the best way to farm for shd calibration and field recon data used in optimization

#

oh someone else already said that lol I shoulda read

#

but hey two confirmations are better than one

marble shadow
#

yep, thanks sigg i appreciate it still

stiff cedar
#

:^)

marble shadow
#

reached 60% crit yay

#

wait a minute that’s not a question, just proud of myself 🥲

inner turtle
stiff cedar
#

depends on what you sacrifice to get to 60%

marble shadow
#

probably, idk how to build man, im just flailing along and hoping im not total dog poop so i dont get yelled at

stiff cedar
#

and as long as you're not going over 60% it's fine

marble shadow
#

yeah ngl i got too eager and went past 60 and then had to scale back, now im 58.8 and waiting for leveling up my shd to take care of the rest, im shd 26 now

#

it’s pretty hard to recalibrate things bc one change in gear or weapon is sometimes like +10% crit 😩

stiff cedar
#

max out chc first on the offense branch btw, and make sure to pull back your build to follow

#

don't put enough points into chc to get you at exactly 60% and then focus on other things is what I'm sayin lol

#

but hey don't be afraid to ask questions about your build. you probably know this already, but there's tons of knowledgeable people more than willing to help in #td2-build-advice

not to mention the spreadsheet (which is in #td2-build-advice pins) is a great resource and has some builds you can work towards until you're more comfortable with experimenting

marble shadow
#

i wanted to go AR so i tried fenris first, but then somehow i got better stats on hunter set now im 4 set hunter, and i feel like i gotta go smg 😔

stiff cedar
#

if you're running an ar with hunter then your build is definitely having an identity crisis

#

but you know what they say.. if it ain't broke, don't fix it

marble shadow
#

my build is constantly broken so im just... idk, chugging along

stiff cedar
#

if it makes you feel any better, I'm shd level 221 and haven't even gotten my first build at 100% cohesion

#

running a red/yellow hybrid with chc/chd and one of my gear has hsd when it should have chc. it's very depressing

inner turtle
#

👀

#

just get a coyote

stiff cedar
#

now you're not wrong

#

but also no

marble shadow
#

what's coyote?

stiff cedar
#

coyote's mask; it's an exotic mask with a talent that increases chc/chd depending on your distance to an enemy

#

it's especially good for groups because each individual distance buff can stack and applies to all teammates

#

but even solo it's used in a lot of red builds

inner turtle
#

and support upto 3 player stacking

marble shadow
#

interesting

supple bane
#

Dz pvp vs conflict pvp. Whats the difference if any in terms of builds/metas

stiff cedar
#

conflict pvp is team vs team where as dz can be anything from 1v1 to 4v4v. . .

#

in other words there's a lot more flexibility in builds since stuff like healing is always going to be viable

twilit otter
#

Not much difference. You will still run into skill/status players and intimidate/adrenaline rush in both

#

But I see more fire sticky/stinger hives in conflict

supple bane
stiff cedar
#

pvp is pvp. what's good in dz is unlikely to be worse in conflict

#

the only real difference is that conflict makes it so that some builds are more viable

supple bane
#

In conflict are there 'unwritten rules' of the community?

stiff cedar
#

idk but unwritten rules are unwritten rules

twilit otter
#

People hate mortar turrets and the status builds

supple bane
#

Jk thats glitching and i dont wanna get beanned

twilit otter
#

I have a friend who does that with rigger

supple bane
#

Its a bannable thing iirc

stiff cedar
#

if I've learned anything from other games, it's that bugs are actually features and should be abused to their fullest

twilit otter
#

It causes the server to screw up apparently

supple bane
#

Good but takes some setup

twilit otter
#

Yea she showed me that yesterday, covered the whole damn area with traps

supple bane
#

So if someone doesnt die from the shrapnel then they will be shocked

twilit otter
#

One build people hate in pvp (I think you're working on it now) is bulwark with regulus

supple bane
#

Might try changing shock to healing traps

supple bane
twilit otter
#

You can test it out, haven't seen too many people use the trap though

supple bane
twilit otter
#

I usually like playing a troll, so I might try it

supple bane
#

So i do... if the rogues become toxic (not the haha funny toxic the racial slur toxic)

twilit otter
#

Yeah I'll play a toxic build if other players are getting toxic

supple bane
#

I would teach you the spam technique but idk how mods would like that

twilit otter
#

I know how to do it, was playing around with it the other day

supple bane
#

Just dont abuse it

twilit otter
#

Nah, I wouldn't. Not my style

inner turtle

Like dont make it your main pvp build

My shield lasted longer when the wraith shooting it

This man 2 shot it and me

He didn't even have good weapons like wtf

the hunter will meele and your whole sheild + most health goes out

This game is bs regardless

Div2 is tactical, it doesn't present itself like that at first, but it really is.

using cover, moving smart, building smart, it's all part of it.

inner turtle

why is shield not counted as cover :v

but vigilance works

marble shadow

The targets unlock after a certain time. You can choose to do them when they each unlock, or wait until they’re all unlocked. You have until the season timer ends. I’m not online, so I’m not sure right now.

No. If you complete 100, the challenges reset.

It just randomly reset after I did my 5th challenge

I’m not sure then. My challenge progression is still the same.

hey guys, does pistol stats contribute to overall stats? it makes sense for something like +1skill to contribute, but should i also be looking out for pistols with +CHD for example?

#

similarly with talents... fast hands on pistol =/= fast hands on AR, right?

inner tendon
#

Actually the Kard (Pistol that gives you +1 Skill Tier) only gives you that bonus Tier when you're holding it in your hand.

#

as for the rest: no. Talents only impact the weapon that the Talent is on.

marble shadow
#

ah ok, so all weapons give different stats, is there a way to check how much stats u have for each?

#

like... if i have 60% chc for primary and 50% chc for secondary

#

or something like that

inner tendon
#

if your stats work out as 60% on your primary, then you have 60% only on that primary. You can actually see the differences in-game by swapping the stats you're looking at, there's a key for it in the menu.

At 16-24% weapon handling, its a laser.

#

Noice!

#

Better than MK17? Or just different?

prisma whale
#

Mk17 fires slower but more stable shot

#

you can see more DPS with the MDR but control and landing the shots is harder to do.

mystic anchor
#

Got it. Tx

#

Hey, I'm getting incoming backup requests in the middle of the mission, does that mean they are also doing the same mission?

narrow kraken
#

Could be different though, I've only tried to answer one once during a mission.

vague onyx
#

I see. Then I should not respond. Thank you.

if you have a choice between a looted and a rewarded exotic which one will you keep? react with div2hmm for looted and div2cantsay for rewarded

supple bane
fervent thunder
#

they're both god rolls and one of them must be blown up because manny said so

supple bane
#

keep both kekw

#

also... who manny?

ivory sundial
#

Manny ortega the coordinator

fervent thunder
#

manny ortega? do you know? he's the real mastermind. the real rogue agent. he's telling you to blow stuff up and you blindly follow his orders

narrow kraken
#

Lol

fervent thunder
#

he did try to evacuate the white house so

halcyon saddle

what do you guys recommend for AR talent

willow gale
nimble spruce
fallow zodiac
#

what are the classified commedations? it just says explore washington to unlock

nimble spruce
#

the first one is northeast of the whitehouse

fallow zodiac
#

im like shd level 1000, done all of wony and dc, and the classified missions with both year passes

nimble spruce
#

ok weird, I'd assume the classified commendations are tied to the classified missions

narrow kraken
nimble spruce
#

I'll have a look in my game, although if they're basically like hidden achievements I guess I wouldn't be able to say which ones they are (if I have them)

#

yeah I don't see any classified commendations in any of my subsections

#

which subsection are they in? @fallow zodiac

halcyon saddle
#

I put together new build and my crits are hitting for 1.3 mil consistently god damnnn

#

@willow gale I went with strained

fallow zodiac
nimble spruce
#

Hmm, difficult to say which ones they are then. Raid commendations maybe?

fallow zodiac
#

ive done the raids, i dont have all the commendations but like i have a few

nimble spruce
#

OK, but you'll be able to see all of them then

#

so it must be something else

fallow zodiac
#

thats what im saying idk what this can be

nimble spruce
#

do they have a 'rank' colour (blue/green/grey bar on the left)

fallow zodiac
#

all green

nimble spruce
#

eesh, there's too many to be able to narrow it down without going through them one by one, and I don't have the patience for that

fallow zodiac
#

yeah thats reasonable

#

ah i dont think ive done tidal basin on story difficulty??

#

which makes less sense cause ive done this mission countless times not including when it was first unlocked... unless they were all considered invaded?

mystic lodge
#

Can I get dark winter from the summit

true siren

no

mystic lodge
#

I'm gonna go cry then

true siren
#

bring tissues. You can get it from named caches, so theres your savior

ivory sundial
#

I didnt really know how to do this correctly but whats the correct way to farm?

#

Like if im trying to get merciless and i farm jeff trade center

#

Would it be better to die after killing the boss?

#

Or something else

mystic lodge
#

Is Ace & eights still the best gear set for sniper mains?@true siren

true siren
#

Whats the current best for sniper mains?

true siren

high end & aces

#

tied, p much

foggy needle
mystic lodge
#

Whats high end

ivory sundial
mystic lodge
#

oh, I thought their was a brand called high-end

chilly carbon
#

hello,

today i've met some very nice people on a raid, and was told classified builds are not worth compared to high-end (yellow) ones

which families should i go for if i want to have like a bunch of damage + crit chance/damage and what attributes should they have?

please tag my message so i can just check once someone replies to me... thanks! div2love

prisma whale
foggy needle
#

There are no classified builds (that’s Div 1 only). You mean gear sets and Some are not worth it but others are very much worth + compete with full high end dps. take a look at the pinned build lists in #build_advice, lots of builds there.

rigid kraken
#

Do gear talents only roll on backpacks and chests?

foggy needle
#

yes

pallid imp
#

is eagle bearer still a big thing thats sought after at all with people ?

foggy needle
#

for fun yes.

marble helm
#

Is it possible to join an existing summit? I couldnt find any 'join' function in the matchmaking menu

stiff cedar
#

you can matchmake for summit or join/invite players

marble helm
#

Ah i see, thought i could just join a random ongoing one, thanks ^^

stiff cedar
#

you can. that's what matchmaking does

marble helm
#

Oh lol, alright gonna try 😄

willow gale
foggy needle
#

Lol best for. Fun

willow gale
#

ye sadly it is

#

great in PVP thou best no one cares about that mess

vague onyx
#

Hello, is daze and disorient the same thing? Does Banshee dazes?

stiff cedar
#

afaik yes

#

very weird that they'd call it daze in the league

prisma whale
#

well

vague onyx
prisma whale
#

Disorienting someone does put them in a daze 🤣

stiff cedar
#

listen here

Does intentionally summit wiping not work anymore? I'm killing the named and wiping, but the named doesn't drop after 1

zenith scroll
#

so on ubisoft connect it says i can download division but when i got to download it it takes me to stem and it says i have to buy it on steam
same thing with steep, watchdogs 2, for honor, and others how do i fix
i linked my xbox account that already had the games and think i would get all those games buy i have to buy them all over again

marble shadow
#

is there a reliable way to find named enemies aside from main quests?

foggy needle
#

Missions, Cps 4, heroic summit all have named

stiff cedar
#

literally every bounty?

foggy needle
#

Those 2

marble shadow
#

thanks

inner turtle
inner turtle
marble shadow
#

awesome, thank you

inner tendon
#

Not 100% sure if they count for what you need them for, but CPs at Lvl 4 also spawn Named enemies each wave as the boss.

scarlet knoll
#

After you've hit end game, there's a myriad of named dudes that always spawns just south of the White House before you get to the flea market. Spawns every half hour.

marble shadow
#

oh sorry i should've been more clear, i was doing it for the weekly project and i think it had to be in a specific zone

#

but thanks anyway, as always the community is super helpful

median widget
#

If I save a load out with another specialization, can I swap between them there instantly without going to the white house? Same as how I instantly take everything I need out of my box?

shrewd orbit
median widget
#

im always out of that ammo anyways when logging in, porting or doing anything somehow ^^i mainly want to swich between ammo reg and the technician hive and survivalist bonus helaing, not the weapon

summer basalt
#

I feel like you only get enough when you are in some mission, or have that one gear set.

shrewd orbit
random sapphire
#

is the apartment even that good?

#

like i know in Div1 the house was like OoOoOffffff

inner turtle
#

it is good enough

random sapphire
#

and you can get it from smg targeted loot cant you?

timid vessel
#

only if dz is smg targeted, gun is dz exclusive

random sapphire
#

aight thanks

grand nebula
#

measured depends on your gear choices

#

the more total weapon you have from talents the worse it is

narrow kraken
#

Momento or Coyotes mask? (For a DPS build)

foggy needle
#

they are different builds

#

Coyotes = higher dps, memento = higher self sustain/ hybrid.

#

Also memento is only good for CQB builds.

narrow kraken

Hi, trying to complete a subset, but the comms we are missing is no where to be found, even after using a map to find it. it just does not spawn, even after logging out and back in again. it is the "leader elected" one from campus. Any ideas? Supposed to be in a stairway at judiciary square

scarlet knoll
#

Try switching to someone else's instance. Whoever group leader is might have already picked it up in theirs.

fallow zodiac
#

whats the difference between skill repairs and repair skills?

foggy needle
#

just the wording

fallow zodiac
#

so the backpack talent that gives me 100% skill repair will just double my base healing??

foggy needle
#

no

#

cant remember if its "total skill repair" or just "skill repair"

prisma whale
#

Skill repair is still repair skills

foggy needle
#

total is multiplicative while the other is additive to base.

#

@prisma whale is safe guard total or base?

fallow zodiac
#

yeah thats why i said base, 100% added base is just basically doubling base heals right

#

wait its total

foggy needle
#

1 sec

fallow zodiac
#

im looking at it

foggy needle
#

it says "total repair skill" ?

fallow zodiac
#

"while at full armor, increases total skill repair by 100%"

foggy needle
#

okay so total.

fallow zodiac
#

thats crazy

foggy needle
#

yup

#

keep in mind its additive with other total repair skills talents if you have any.

fallow zodiac
#

yeah, i would take the healing number i see from my skill and just double it then yeah? except i guess it doesnt take into account other talents but whatever

#

would safeguard work with the tech hive?

foggy needle
#

no not double

fallow zodiac
#

i know repairs skill increase the total %

#

that'll be too much i suppose lol

foggy needle
#

well okay it IS double if you have no other total skill repair.

fallow zodiac
#

so it does affect your tech hive numbers?

foggy needle
#

for heal to shield, yes

#

Heal is:
Base heal x (sum of repair skill) x (sum of total repair skill) x amps = final heal.

fallow zodiac
#

what is base heal for artificer?

foggy needle
#

its % based

#

dont remember exactly %

prisma whale
#

Starts off at 10% and gains an additional 10 every skill tier.

foggy needle
#

hmmm i actually dont know the formula for artificer. i do know all repair skill types increase it though.

prisma whale
#

Its not too different

#

You get the skill tier increases then whatever is 20% of whatever skill you're healing with it, you put in repair skills.

foggy needle
#

ah okay

prisma whale
#

Lets say 1 skill tier and its a 20% heal

#

200 being whats healed.. then give it the repairskills treatment.

foggy needle
#

so it gets the HP value of skill 1st.

timid lava
#

quick question, does the regulus parts drop only after the weekly refresh when completing the projects?

prisma whale
#

Yes. If you got the project after you finished the current week's raid drops, you will need to wait until reset to get the parts for regulus.

timid lava
#

yeah tought so, thnx

burnt pine

I've been doing the League missions with random groups (on heroic) but I'm not getting credit for it in the tracker. What's going on? https://i.imgur.com/g3GZ08B.png

#

Done a couple of them 2-3 times.

tulip fiber
#

The league missions are only available on hard and challenging. It says that on the league menu when you click on it

burnt pine
#

Crap

#

Odd restriction, unless there's some reasoning I am not aware of.

stiff cedar
#

standardizes the leaderboard

#

everyone can only do this on one difficulty, so it's fair

burnt pine
#

Thanks. Forgot that's a thing too. 🙂

gilded copper
#

is there anyone that has completed year 2 hunters and have a new character slot that they haven't started yet?

scarlet knoll
prisma whale
#

its usually around that time in some missions.

scarlet knoll
#

I've heard that. I always just assumed someone started the mission, called for help on the final boss or something, and whoever joined them did technically finish the mission in a minute, they just didn't start at the beginning.

stiff cedar
#

fair to as fair as it can be anyway

scarlet knoll
#

I do think it's weird, if you ever look at the leaderboards for like normal stuff, the people that have the most kills or similar are all level 30s. Like they set the record before WONY came out and nobody has beaten them yet.

prisma whale
#

I think there was more enemy volume in those missions back then too.

stiff cedar
#

sounds like they abused glitches that existed prior to WONY/patches but the leaderboards never got reset

scarlet knoll
#

It's just funny, someone played their ass off for like a year, and then when the expansion came out they're like, "Nah, this game isn't for me."

#

I play another game with w/d/l leaderboard and for years someone had a 30-0-0 record and was at the top of the leaderboard and everyone was whining because their 250-50-25 record "should be better than 30-0-0" just by pure volume. So, they finally decided they'd reset the leaderboard every 6 weeks and added in some complicated as hell formula where playing more weighted your games heavier so you now see nonsense like 12-4-8 teams ahead of 6-0-0 teams just because the former played more games.

supple bane
#

is the daily targeted loot random or a set rotation? im awaiting the day when fenris becomes targeted at lincoln memorial

scarlet knoll
#

I just wished there was a drop down menu in game for whatever you want and it'd tell you where it was if at all that day.

#

spend half my morning scrolling over the map, switching back and forth from NY / DC just to find out whatever I'm looking for isn't available that day.

dull vector
#

Is there a point to being in a clan?

stiff cedar
#

clan vendor, clan bounties, weekly cache

#

those are the standouts might be forgetting a few benefits

scarlet knoll
#

If you have an active clan (hard to come by) you have built in groups

dull vector
#

And here I was thinking I wasn't active enough to be in a clan

scarlet knoll
#

I mean active like they have a separate discord or something for coordinating groups/raids/dz whatever. I've been in a clan for a couple of months and nobody has said a word to each other ever.

#

Funniest part is, the clan leader keeps advertising the clan discord in the feed, but the discord has like 75 other games on it but not Division 2.

supple bane
#

Dodge city holster, it deals hsd to anywhere on the body but does it affect regicide meaning it also activates?

random sapphire
#

whats a hard wired G-component?

grand nebula
#

hard wired has different pieces that drop from different bosses to craft

#

its pretty stupid so just farm the pieces in targ loot

random sapphire
#

im farming Lincoln memorial atm

#

ive just never seen it before so didnt know if its important or not

grand nebula
#

nah

#

let em pile up

random sapphire
#

so what is it? crafting material?

grand nebula
#

yep

#

for the hard wired set

random sapphire
#

oh true

#

useless for me hahah

#

also is 8:51 a good time for lincoln memorial on challenging with 3 directives
