darkness is lz/dz both

dark winter however is dz only if he meant that

[deep finch]

Is it true the Bighorn can drop from legendary summit?

[wary shale]

Yes, boss floors, if i recall right

[deep finch]

Alrighty thank you

[normal crest]

is the regulus parts guranteed drops from the boss or do they have a chance to drop ?

[ivory sundial]

Chance

[normal crest]

sadge

[twilit otter]

If you're talking about the actual parts for the gun, then they will always drop

[true siren]

they are guaranteed when you've finished the project & on a fresh clear of the week, dont listen to rake

[twilit otter]

@normal crest ^^

[normal crest]

you mean the donate parts right

[true siren]

no i mean the regulus parts

like the gun

the parts of the gun

[normal crest]

yea you donate it to the project right ?

[true siren]

iirc you dont donate them, you create the regulus with those parts after you've finished the projects

[normal crest]

i got like a project named rats gnaw our bones project after the yellow item projects

and it requires me to donate the revolver parts

but it gives me the parts and the blueprint

[true siren]

ah, it'll give you the parts back after

[normal crest]

yeah so the donate parts are a chance to drop ?

[true siren]

oh my god

no

[normal crest]

profesisonal tard moment

so its a gurantee drop ?

[true siren]

yes

[normal crest]

thamk fren

[true siren]

if you havent run the raid this week, atleast.

[normal crest]

ah...

welp i can farm for it no problemo

or i can wait a week

[true siren]

no? they just wont drop if it isnt a fresh weekly clear

wait like

a couple hours for reset, iirc

[normal crest]

nope it was reset like 2 or 3 hours ago

[willow gale]

It’s like 8-10 hours

[normal crest]

i ran it then and luckily i had the project parts already for the yellow proect

[true siren]

then you have to wait

[normal crest]

welp

no problemo thanks for the heads up lad

apriciated

[ivory sundial]

You cant get exotics on story mode right?

[tulip fiber]

You can. RNG tho

[ivory sundial]

That must explain why i got imperial dynasty on story mode pathway

[narrow kraken]

Do you guys sometimes just walk around and explore the world?

[versed pumice]

Si for mats..

[narrow kraken]

I once walked into a flat with a phone recording and found Some items there left behind. Was immersive

[potent plaza]

@narrow kraken yes
I'm not focusing just on missions etc.

[ivory sundial]

I do it with no hud

[narrow kraken]

Simple question - simple answer:
Which build here has more damage and why:

[true siren]

ew, div2 youtubers

probably the HF one

[willow gale]

the EB bait is very funny

[wary spoke]

What is most efficient for solo farming- summit with directives, a mission with directives, or open world with directives?

[willow gale]

theres no best, i like Hf tho

[ivory sundial]

i feel like you read that wrong

[willow gale]

I didnt

[wary spoke]

I’m confused. Did you answer me or the other guy(?)?

[willow gale]

you

[wary spoke]

Oh lol

I’m still confused lol

You like Hf? Is that hunters fury?

[willow gale]

yes

[wary spoke]

Ok

[willow gale]

hunters fury with adrush and intim

[wary spoke]

Yeh that’s great for PvP

[willow gale]

no

bad for PVP good for PVE

[wary spoke]

Oh I use memento and soko intimidate for solo leg summit

Took a while to get used to, but now I feel like I’m on a whole new level

@willow gale I kinda wish we were on the same platform. I feel like I could learn a lot from you lol

[fallow inlet]

Night odder

[normal crest]

is farming the black tusk minigunners for infinite weak points destroyed thing mean like would they be sad ?

[twilit otter]

What?

[normal crest]

you know like when you keep shooting the ammo on the side and getting weak points scores

would they be sad

ıdk if i can send vids or pics here

[twilit otter]

Are you using the correct word? Are you asking if they would be unhappy?

[normal crest]

yeah

ıdk where else to ask it and this place says any questions relating to division 2

[ivory sundial]

I mean that gives like 5 seconds to kill them

That goes with the hyena heavy too

[hollow rock]

Bighorn any good? Got a perfect one last night

[willow gale]

In Pvp yes pve eh

[tight fern]

Hey guys not sure if this is the place to ask. I'm trying to get the momento and eagle ar but need some help if possible. Thanks

[foggy needle]

momento is world drop so farm backpack target loot and eagle is Raid only, so have to farm DH raid.

[scarlet knoll]

I was thinking about that Muppet Menomina song

[willow gale]

Yeah, hey

[inner tendon]

RIP Kurt, miss ya.

[fallow inlet]

Damn I can say Good Afternoon to Everyone

And not miss Anybody🤣

[true siren]

You can but i'll be mad at you

Its the everyone ping

[prime crest]

For the season stuff, do I have to play the mission on the exact difficulty they show the blue trophy icon next to, or can I play a harder one and it still count?

[hidden zinc]

Yo, is there actually a way to zoom out from the character a bit more?

[hallow raptor]

I think normal is minimum difficulty

[fallow inlet]

It has to be that specific difficulty

Or it won't count

,but you can add directives

[normal crest]

is there still a way to get the backfire or do i gotta specificly get it from a season pass

[ivory sundial]

Farm SMG target loot

[normal crest]

thanks chief

[wet ice]

Is it worth farming for the Hollow Man when masks aren't the targeted loot? Or should I just wait for masks to pop up in one of the DZs?

[lucid plinth]

I have a weapon with a scope added to it's top rail, which I want to remove, but in my inventory, I don't know how to access the mod menu.

Can someone help me?

[nimble spruce]

highlight the weapon in your inventory, hit F

[lucid plinth]

f is Move to stash

[true siren]

get out of the stash menu

[lucid plinth]

oh my bad

I see it now.

thanks! I feel like an idiot for that.

[true siren]

it happens more often than you'd think

[wary shale]

what does the game say when you die? there is one line i don't get
agent .... function

agent no function?

[ivory sundial]

Agent vital signs zero

Or agent killed

[wary shale]

not those... it mentions some kind of "function"

[ivory sundial]

That’s what I’ve heard

I’m not hearing any function inside the game

[wary shale]

it starts with "agent .... function"

got it

it says agent out of action

[gentle dome]

what does floor 10 power level mean

[hallow saddle]

Where is the highest drop for apartment

[true siren]

what do you mean

[willow gale]

theres no known drop rate

[hallow saddle]

Any known drop spots

I can solo heroics

[willow gale]

SMG targetted loot

[true siren]

DZ.

DZ smg targeted.

[willow gale]

im pretty sure its not dz

or is that the other mpx

[true siren]

it is actually, odder just cant read

[willow gale]

ok yes apartment is DZ. safety distance is not

[ivory sundial]

If you have a lvl 1 lullaby does the talent not work on higher level enemies? (Excluding elites obviously)

[prisma sequoia]

Waddup. So I recently started playing division 2 so I could play with my friends. They had just got it fresh so we were all kinda starting. They all chose to go to Warlords of New York first because they wanted to get leveled quick. I’m more of a story and experience guy so I would’ve rather stayed in DC, but so I could play with them, I went to New York. So the question I had was, can I go back to DC after I finish New York? Or should I have one character for DC and one for New York so I can experience DC in it’s full form?

[ivory sundial]

well technically all of you guys skipped most mechanics so in a way you did something wrong

2 if your more into the story you cant go back till you finish WONY

[prisma sequoia]

What I was planning on doing is having my own person save on DC and just grinding that out, then the occasion when I play with my friends I hop on the New York one. Would that work?

[ivory sundial]

well if you do the story on the DC you can go to NY through that

once you finish it you basically can transfer between the 2 locations

so theres not much of a point having 2 characters for different locations

[prisma sequoia]

Ohhh that makes so much more sense lol

[ivory sundial]

along with that boosting as starters is really not a great idea

so your are gonna have to make new chars and delete your boosted ones

you can save the boosts for when you make another char

after finishing DC and WONY

[prisma sequoia]

Yes sir

Thanks for the help

It makes more sense when you put it like that

[narrow kraken]

system malfunctioning?

[wary shale]

read down 😄 it says "agent out of action" 😄 i misheard it

[narrow kraken]

Ah

Nice pfp btw :) @wary shale

[narrow kraken]

Does character specialization progress become shared across characters like SHD levels once you complete WONY?

[tulip fiber]

SHD, yes. Just put the points into the watch. Get the shared blueprint from Inaya. You’d need to level up the specializations though.

[nimble spruce]

No, you have to get those specialisation points again with the new character, although you don't have to do the research to unlock them first

[crisp coyote]

Hello, where can I report about cheaters?

[foggy needle]

on the official forums. i dont remember the exact link atm sorry.

[scarlet knoll]

I'm pretty sure you can report directly from game by just typing /reportplayer [name] not sure if that works on XBox or not.

[pliant owl]

if you are high enough shd level where it makes sense, can you constantly make characters to level 40 to farm for shd calibrations?

[ivory sundial]

theres a limited amount of agents to make i think but if you boost the extra chars and finish wony and get the watch you can use the scav points for calibration

[pliant owl]

theres a limit of 4 but can you just delete one and constantly use the scav points?

[ivory sundial]

im not sure if theyll be shared within though

yea i dont know if calibration is shared within the characters

[pliant owl]

if they arent i guess you could just move weapons to that agent to calibrate

[ivory sundial]

yeah thats what i was thinking

[pliant owl]

i think they are shared as long as you buy the account link thing from inaya or whatever

@ubi pls no nerf

[scarlet knoll]

I do that all the time when I'm running low on Optimization points. Just delete the 4th character and speedrun through WONY again with a new one, immediately get like 1000 optimization points.

[proud tusk]

Do the Legendaries scale with number of players? 1/2 & 3/4. Not talking about Summit.

[rugged forge]

Yes

[noble ocean]

No legendary strongholds do not scale. They'll always be the same number of people.

[grand nebula]

hp does scale

[hallow saddle]

I Can get lady death in summit right my first one?

[inner tendon]

Yep, best way is via Targeted Loot: SMG w/Directives.

[hallow saddle]

I just got the orbit off my first named cache in the season pass lol

[prime crest]

why does the world go black/blank when I view dropped loot, open menus, etc?

I really hate it

[inner tendon]

best I can tell, the menu doesn't have enough "space" to open, and cuts out the environment so it doesn't clip across your view.

[narrow kraken]

anyone have a good way to level up fast

[inner tendon]

SHD watch or 1-30?

[narrow kraken]

shd

[inner tendon]

the literal fastest way is Heroic Resource Convoys w/Directives, however that gets real boring real fast.
I honestly just recommend putting it on Heroic, and grouping up with people and playing what you wanna play. Long as you're doing something ingame, you'll get exp.

[narrow kraken]

hmmm maybe

[hallow saddle]

Anyone know what i should have built before i try doing my first raid

[narrow kraken]

which one?

[hallow saddle]

The one for eb

[narrow kraken]

good dps

[inner tendon]

oh easy answer: a red DPS build.
make sure you can handle yourself in Heroic and you'll be fine.

[tulip fiber]

Get a dps build

[hallow saddle]

I heard having unbreak and vigilance is good

[inner tendon]

I recommend the one called "Full Meta Jacket" that's pinned in build-advice > spreadsheet > hub tab.

[narrow kraken]

unbreak is not good for raid

[grand nebula]

?

theres 0 reason it wouldnt be good
you do 0 dps when youre dead

not to mention none of the encounters are dps races

[narrow kraken]

you should be able to survive fine without it. if you need it to survive through a raid then dont do the raid lol

[inner tendon]

even if they were, Unbreak ain't gonna nuke your DPS that much.

[narrow kraken]

i run perfect glass cannon and dont go down a single time

[grand nebula]

congratz

have a cookie

[inner tendon]

bragging isn't helpful, this is someone who's doing their first Raid.

[narrow kraken]

no you are missing the point

[grand nebula]

the point is youre gate keeping raids

[narrow kraken]

no what?

[grand nebula]

for no reason

[tulip fiber]

I ran unbreakable through my first couple raids until I got used to them

[narrow kraken]

its mu opinion that its not good to run unbreakable. ill take anyone through the raid

[grand nebula]

theres literally nothing wrong with running unbreakable

[narrow kraken]

i just know others in this discord wont

[grand nebula]

it gives you safety

[grand nebula]

if you need to survive thru a raid dont raid

[hallow grove]

@narrow kraken eph has a good point but I try to teach raiders to kill first and fast , the less dps you do the slower the encounter and the more hectic it becomes . If your new to raiding yes unbreakable is fine . But if you can get used to playing with gc or obliterate or a dmg chest I would highly recommend using it

[grand nebula]

and now a complete 180

[narrow kraken]

wait what? what does this mean lol

[grand nebula]

like even if you have 1000s of clears it doesnt matter

none of the bosses in any of the raids are limited by your dps

[ivory sundial]

Cutting it short just have the FMJ build rivens suggested from the hub tab in the spreadsheet

[narrow kraken]

bruh I'm literally saying that I don't like running unbreakable and when I see others run it I get nervous. I still do raids with people that run it but I'm just saying in general I dont like it and dont think others should use it or depend on it in a raid. Just use something else

[hallow grove]

It drives me bonkers as well in dh raids especially

[prime crest]

Not sure I understand. Is the goal not to block the view or something? Because the whole world disappearing really does that 😦

[narrow kraken]

I wont lie Ive used it once it or twice in iron horse myself to get the hang of the raid but I dont like seeing it in dh

[hallow saddle]

im assuming just farm @ivory sundial summit for the mask

[inner tendon]

@prime crest It fades back in a second later, kinda looks like you're floating in a void.

[hallow grove]

Players just need to run gc open world for a few weeks and learn how to play with it . Not that hard really .

[narrow kraken]

true

[inner tendon]

I never cared for GC, kinda seems like overkill for the most part.

[true siren]

ah the duality

either run unbreakable and have "no damage" or run GC and die

[grand nebula]

i dont even understand that arguement, why shouldnt people depend on it? Its just a chest talent that helps you maintain safety and not be a burden for your team if stuff goes wrong
inversly, people run PGC because ooga booga big number, and it makes the raid shorter by 30 seconds while being a massive blunder if they do go down

[narrow kraken]

because people start making ungodly decisions in raids thinking they gonna live through them

[grand nebula]

in my experience, its not the unbreakable players who make those decisions most often

[ivory sundial]

Coyotes mask yes

[hallow grove]

Not going to argue today about something this ridiculous. Have a great Saturday

[grand nebula]

''today''

[narrow kraken]

true lol

ill see you here at the same time tomorrow Eph?

[hallow grove]

Yes today . Maybe I’ll argue Monday

[grand nebula]

you never argue edmond

you just say whatever and dissapear when challenged

[narrow kraken]

oh brother get a load of this guy

[hallow grove]

It’s because I’m right and I don’t need your validation . It’s fairly simple really

[grand nebula]

sure thing

[autumn path]

imagine not running a smg focus build

but jokes aside imo

if the team is well organized a few players could go with GC

[narrow kraken]

i like to have my team all run healer builds

[hallow grove]

We did a rainbow raid the other day dh . Oh my gosh that was funny . All rainbow rolled gear .

I think razor was a 15 phase 😂

[grand nebula]

if you go for speedrun times you need to, gotta squeeze all the time possible

[autumn path]

oh I guess yeah if everyone's experienced

but I do not trust myself with GC

[hallow grove]

All teaching raids dh we run pgc or gc and one overwatch . Of course healer isn’t gc .

[tiny granite]

Anybody know what causes the Chameleon to change to each color?

[ivory sundial]

Sun lighting

And darkness

For me the color changes every time I go somewhere dark or I equip it

Then it slowly turns back to white

[shrewd orbit]

The reason things like unbreakable aren't recommended is because you'll end up learning bad habits and get used to relying on it. Whereas if you're in PGC and fuck up, you'll learn real quick how you fucked up.
Edit: sorry, quoted the wrong message.

For casual raids, if you don't truly plan on learning the content, I guess it's acceptable, but if you actually enjoy them and continue doing them, yeah. Don't use unbreakable

[grand nebula]

i also disagree with that in general. no one should crutch on unbreakable but to say it creates bad habits is an overstatement. You play like normal and get a little more bulk and more margin for errors while having essentially little to no downside
even if you get used to it and play too agressive, youl easily learn otherwise when you swap talent

like people act as if you need this giga dps to clear raids when people have done it in literal purple gear

every single encounter is doable by doing the mechanics and having the minimum amount of dps to kill adds

the only arguement for using glass cannon in the raid is speedrunning to squeeze out time

[craggy hull]

are the regulus parts a guaranteed drop, one from each boss after the reset? Or do I need to run the raid till i get them all? 🤔

[grand nebula]

theyre guaranteed on the 1st weekly kill per char

[shrewd orbit]

I'm not saying PGC is the end all be all answer, but something like obliterate would definitely be a solid option for the majority of teams. Especially when running with randoms, bc you never know what they're using or capable of doing, so sometimes you really do need that bit more dmg because either someone's unable or incapable of carrying their own weight.

[hallow saddle]

Does anyone have a map of the world boss spawn points

[hallow saddle]

I think he told me use unbreakable to learn the raid first

Im a vet of the game so adapting to builds is not an issur

[crisp oracle]

i haven't played the game in a long time , and i just updated it today to play a little , in the middle of fight , my screen in game only started flashing green a little like the display is kind bugy or something , is that known issue ?

[shell osprey]

Recently got back into the game after a year and bought the expansion. Seems a bit is changed. Is the game dead though?...Matchmaking doesn't seem to find anyone at all.

[willow gale]

sometimes i can be harder to find ppl when matchmaking for off missions.

[shrewd orbit]

I definitely have a biased opinion either way as I do raid speedruns, tbh.

[shell osprey]

Have they added cross-play, or is that still between PC and Stadia users? Last time i heard anyway.

[ivory sundial]

Nope

[shrewd orbit]

Can't speak for consoles but pc is still active most of the time. Only pc/stadia crossplay

[willow gale]

No corss play

[shell osprey]

Damn...That sucks still. Could really benefit from it.

[willow gale]

no point, cost too much money and causes too much loss of money for an already financially failing game

it wouldnt benefit at all.

[shell osprey]

No doubt. Played the shit out of it back in early 2020. Now, it seems like it's slowly going down the drain.
And no roadmap for 2021/2022?

[shrewd orbit]

New content scheduled for the end of the year, other than that I don't recall.

[hallow saddle]

@shrewd orbitwell i am a long term division player however i quit playing div 2 before tidal basin came out because i preordered it and had best shit in game waited for content

[willow gale]

they released one. after that the game is on auto pilot

other then bug fixes and sever maintence etc

[shell osprey]

Ah. Least it's something.
Anyway, thanks. Helps knowing what i'm getting back into. Really do want to enjoy this game again.

[shrewd orbit]

I'd still say obliterate or unbreakable for your first run or three. There's a lot going on in a raid at any given point in time. Well, Ironhorse in particular.

[grave quiver]

What's the best way to get lady death?

Maybe I've just got bad luck but targeted loot in the summit and world bosses in NY haven't yielded anything so far. any tips or suggestion would be amazing

[willow gale]

farm SMG targetted loot

[grave quiver]

(ive been running this for about 2 days so im about to die lol)

[grave quiver]

:sadge: back to the summit I go then

[willow gale]

add more directives if u dont already have alot

just dont farm summit, farm open world

[grave quiver]

whats the benefit of open world over summit?

Getting back into the game after like a year so idk what im doing

[willow gale]

nothing, summit is just boring

[grave quiver]

lmao welp

ty for the help ❤️

[deep snow]

How do I get fox prayer kneepads

[tulip fiber]

Overlord target loot

[ivory sundial]

Am I not able to get adrestia if I have a nemesis transferred to my second char?

It wasn’t crafted

[fallow inlet]

You should you missed something

[ivory sundial]

????

I missed something?

[fallow inlet]

Oops I missed read

Yes you can get the adrestia and start crafting the nemisis

Don't leave anywhere near stash
Otherwise won't work

[ivory sundial]

No I just want the adrestia that’s it

[ivory sundial]

No I’m only wanting the adrestia not the nemesis

[shell osprey]

Are the raids mechanic-centered? Like having to do certain things, perhaps flipping switches, or having to do specific things to damage a boss.

Sorry if it's a stupid question lmao
I'd rather ask it straight to the community. Makes it feel more connected.

[tulip fiber]

Some mechanics for DH. Not a lot, but Razorback is a bit more mechanical. IH has more mechanics definitely. Timing is important as well

[shell osprey]

Alright, sweet. Thanks. I usually suck at raids, i.e. Destiny 2. Never play them due to the stress and impatient players and whatnot, but i might wanna give these a try to see how they are.

[tulip fiber]

DH is a little less stressful for sure. Mostly DPS test. IH is definitely more mechanic heavy. Watch some videos to get the gist, it’ll help

[wary shale]

yes, i'd say they are mechanic centered, and you also need dps and different builds for different roles. they just been kinda figured out already

[shell osprey]

Alright, might have to hold off on it for a bit until' i get better gear and perfect my build for it.
And find players, most importantly

And go through the expansion's story. I wanna see how that goes.

[fallow inlet]

@ivory sundial you can buy it from a vendor from time to time

[hallow saddle]

Memento wouldnt be good for dh im assuming

[hallow karma]

Is the quickplay PvP mode generally deserted? It would take me like a solid hour of waiting just to maybe find 1 game. Is no one playing it or is there something I don't understand?

[twilit otter]

It's usually quiet around this time, later on it will probably pick up

@hallow karma just a heads up but you're going to run into a lot of skill builds and matches that crash when you're winning

[hallow karma]

Odd, so far, I've only managed to play a total of 2 games in quickplay

[gentle dome]

what skill mods do you use on shield, turret, attack drone, revive hive?

[shell osprey]

Can DEFINITELY say i learn that the hard way. Oh my god...Never mind, staying away from that lmao

[narrow kraken]

i forgot to use my keys in the horse raid is there a way i could use them?

[edgy narwhal]

guys anyone know how to drop coyote mask?

[willow gale]

Farm mask target

[tulip fiber]

You keep them. They won’t disappear. Max of 15. You can also rerun the raid

[narrow kraken]

I tried but the doors not open

[tulip fiber]

You need to run the raid from the beginning. Can use the keys at the end.

[narrow kraken]

alright thanks ^^

[tulip fiber]

Sure

[twilit otter]

Yeah it can be frustrating

[sudden shard]

do exotics drop in the summit?

[tulip fiber]

Yes

[sudden shard]

bet

[sleek patio]

Can i ask why the matchmaking is slow on pc than on console? Ive been matchmaking for random main mission for 45 mins. Still aint found noone

And yes my privacy is open.

[frank aspen]

go matchmake for lincoln monument

[willow gale]

Ppl don’t match make for random shit

[frank aspen]

If anything matchmake for answer the call

[sleek patio]

@willow gale why not lol

[frank aspen]

they prefer doing a mission they prefer to do.

[sleek patio]

@frank aspen i usually just do random mission heroic if i just dont want anything to grind. And hopefully meet new people

[frank aspen]

Yeah people don’t random mission matchmake. Better to just Matchmake Answer the Call. From my experience, faster matchmaking with that.

[rare topaz]

anyone else randomly crashing lately?

I haven't been on too much lately, but game crashed last night and just now. Don't think its my rig, Ryze7 5800x and 3060TI and 16gbs of ram

Both times same thing, not responding in task manager, game doesn't actually black screen or close, just randomly goes to the loading screen but its frozen there

[sudden shard]

yup crashed like 5 times the last couple days

whats the best non exotic smg?

[rare topaz]

MPX Sig

[tulip matrix]

Vector

[sudden shard]

bruh i accidentally got rid of the vector

[willow gale]

Vector is hot dog shit

[willow gale]

Dw, the gun is ass

[willow gale]

^

Or banshee

[sudden shard]

what talent on the banshee

[willow gale]

Fast hands, maybe killer or in sync

[sleek patio]

Why does my group never stay on open on PC? I turn it to open group then go back in the menu and its back on friends and clan only. Pissing me off i cant play with noone

[novel plank]

what would you guys say i should bring into the keener fight skill wise? what are his abilities like?

[ivory sundial]

Cutting this short

He’s got a lot

A pack ton of skills

[novel plank]

would the jammer be a good idea to use? used it to kill a hunter the first time and it was pretty useful

[ivory sundial]

If you can use it first before him

[rotund sigil]

So i got my character to 30. What is the quickest way to world tier 5? Just rub out the true sons missions and a few cps? I do not want to boost the character to WoNY. Also, the gear requirement for entering missions is equipped? I know that the highest available, not equipped dictates drop levels.

[fallow inlet]

Just keep droppen bodies

[vast oar]

Speedrun through the invaded missions + strongholds

[hallow saddle]

did they nerf chatterbox i dont see all the talents i saw on the site when i was farming for it

[foggy needle]

Not nerfed, the entire gear system was changed 2 years ago. That site is outdated info.

[hallow saddle]

is their a updated list

[inner tendon]

Actually yes, there's the best list online, and it's right here in this discord.
#td2-build-advice > pinned-messages > spreadsheet > enjoy! That is basically the "div2 bible".

[torpid linden]

I’m tryna make a shotgun shield build. Cant decide if I go with foundry bulwark or hunters fury.

[ivory sundial]

Hunters fury

[frank aspen]

FOUNDRY BULWARK GANG GANG

[quick stag]

Is the ultimate division worth it? Idk what version to get

[fallow inlet]

You want the 1 w wony with it

Wony is end story

[quick stag]

If I get ultimate division would I be skipping the main sotry?

[fallow inlet]

No you'll get both div2 and wony

[hallow saddle]

Is memento and chatterbox OKAY for dh raid?

[vast oar]

If you have a team that can carry you, sure. But otherwise, absolutely not

[hallow saddle]

Well itll be my first time running it however i researched mechanics etc.

[vast oar]

You need a fair amount of DPS in order to pull your weight in a raid, so I would highly suggest going with AR DPS

Its not that difficult to make a set

[hallow saddle]

And have all god rules damn near

[hallow saddle]

Im an ar smg player however i do have burn out

[vast oar]

You want to focus all your damage onto your AR DPS

[hallow saddle]

Most of my build is full metal jacket besides chatterbox and memento

Havent optimized the 2 exotics yet

[vast oar]

Use an AR, you should use 3 piece providence, 1 piece fenris, 1 piece grupo and the fox's prayer kneepads

Memento and chatterbox are way more useful if you are running and gunning

[hallow saddle]

Run and gun is my playstyle but im not sure if its useful for dh

[vast oar]

Run and gun will get you killed in a raid

[hallow saddle]

However im able to switch on the fly such as fast swapping to snipers etc

While in fights

[vast oar]

Snipers are not very useful either, except on very certain sections of raids

[hallow saddle]

So basically cover playstyle for raid or mid range shots i have obliterate

[vast oar]

I had someone use Run and Gun in IH, it took our group a legit 3 hours to beat the first boss. DH will use similar mechanics

[vast oar]

Yes, you can use unbreakable too, its what I run

Backpack should have vigilance

[hallow saddle]

Im pretty sure i have vigilance somewhere

I dont have coyote mask or foxy kneepads though

[vast oar]

Coyote mask no need, run Fenris

[ivory sundial]

fenris buffs your AR damage

[hallow saddle]

Ik that

[vast oar]

Fox's prayer you can get away with not using, but its much better if you have it

[hallow saddle]

However i was told the full jacket build best thing to go

[vast oar]

Coyote masks screws over your DPS in a raid

You can get higher DPS with Fenris

[ivory sundial]

it is but sometimes you may or may not need some of the pieces

eg coyotes mask

[hallow saddle]

Okay so 2 stack fenris if i dont have knee and mask

[vast oar]

You could, or just use 1 fenris 1 overlord

Or even 1 fenris, 1 ceska

You only need the 1 piece fenris because that is where the AR dps bonus comes from

[hallow saddle]

Should i use lmg as secondary instead of my smg playstyle??

[vast oar]

I used an LMG for my first few raids

I switched to the Baker's Dozen after my first few though

[ivory sundial]

Bakers dozen is very good as a secondary

or the classic M1A with boomerang

[vast oar]

I used the Carbine 7 for my first raid, with the Stoaner LMG

Works well enough that I wasn't bogging people down

Think about it this way if you want to test your damage. If you kill Heroic enemies in missions in a fairly fast time, you should be good

or you can shoot for 4-5 million dps in the shooting range against heroic enemies

[hallow saddle]

I cam however its with my run and gun shit

[vast oar]

If you run and gun, you will get killed. Second boss requires cover based approach otherwise you will get shot from 2 bosses + all the adds

Third boss also will 1 shot you if you run and gun

[hallow saddle]

Can i do the shield approach to it?

[vast oar]

Run and gun with a shield? Still going to get 1 shot by 3rd boss

I won't even joke

[hallow saddle]

Nah shield playstyle i know how to do every style division 1 vet so i got an understanding on everything

[vast oar]

You can try, but I won't be responsible for any issues that you face with it

DH is still maybe fine, if you have a good team. IH is completely unacceptable

[hallow saddle]

Aight welp guess ill just substitute some of the stuff from what i understand smg in dh is suicide

[vast oar]

DH is still a bit easier, IH is no joke

As a guy who had a 5 hr IH raid due to incomplete DPS builds, I would know the pain

[hallow saddle]

Does my shd lvl matter at all in a raid? Or do they not care as much on that as thry would the build

[vast oar]

SHD really doesn't, a build will be more important

[ivory sundial]

as long as you can do some decent damage to the ads your shd level doesnt matter

[hallow saddle]

Ight

For foxy swap its fenris or coskoa corrext

Im off tmw and wanna try the raid tmw so i can understand mechanics

[vast oar]

If you already have 1 fenris, 3 prov, 1 grupo, then use ceska

[hallow saddle]

Whats the most mandatory besides fenris obviously

[vast oar]

Providence

3 pieces is the minimum and recommended

[hallow saddle]

So fenris prov then grupo or ceska

[vast oar]

Prov no 1, grupo no 2, fenris then ceska

[hallow saddle]

Alright

Ill definetly switch memento for sure seems like memento is absolutely shit for any rakd

[vast oar]

Yeah, especially DH. 3rd boss no enemies except the 2 bosses so memento is legit useless

Also, run reviver hive

Pretty much mandatory for any raids as you can only revive someone 1 time per boss

[supple swift]

i've run and gunned and solo'd generator 4 on razorback with memento (someone disconnected midway, the other time there were just 7 of us)
i've also done the same on the add clear role on Boomer's add spawns
its not completely useless
for IH depending on the strat with newbies, i'd usually camp door right or door left with a HF memento scorpio

[vast oar]

Not completely, but stage 1 and 4 are the only ones I see it working

[supple swift]

keyword "completely"

[vast oar]

And for a beginner to the raid, an AR dps would be the best to use and to recommend

You want a decent knowledge of the raid before you run other builds tbh. And I found that playing the raid is the best way of learning

[supple swift]

i myself would suggest just 3 piece providence, ceska, grupo, fox prayers.
its versatile enough already that u can switch out rifles, ars, lmgs without really losing that much from weapon damage bonuses
besides. there's almost always 2-3 people running coyotes
also, use sacrifice + vigilance.
builds character lol

[vast oar]

Fenris isnt too bad to use, but I have lived without

Sacrifice and Vigilance is masochism, especially perfect sacrifice KEKW

Unless you use a pistol 1 shot build

Unbreakable is good for beginners

[supple swift]

the more you play it the more you learn to play it smarter.
the better you will be

[vast oar]

Leaves you more room of error which does help first time through

[vast oar]

I have run sacrifice a few times, its great but not something I would recommend to a beginner

[supple swift]

well i guess i was taught differently.
before i joined my fist raid i was taught to get used to running sacrifice first befoe i joined.
my first time was smooth. and was only carried for mechanics but not the dps
now i can semi run and gun sacrifice on generator 3 on add clears wthout a shield

[vast oar]

I ran ubreakable and to be honest still do. It doesn't hurt the DPS that much and I could hold down a gen on my own no problems

[fallow inlet]

I run unbreakable love the extra life

[cunning wraith]

How i can get last SHD box in NYC at Civic centre district what is underground. After kill chunga i cant open any door underground

[inner tendon]

Heads up, it's generally discouraged to ping a Ubisoft staff member. If they see your message and wanna chip-in, they will.
it's REALLY not okay to ping 4 at once.

[bronze berry]

Not just discouraged, it's against the #rules -> 11. Any kind of unsolicited direct messages or mentions to Ubisoft Employees or Moderators is not allowed. @cunning wraith

[eternal merlin]

@cunning wraith https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k0YHosQfRMs <--- youtube is a fren , fren

[inner tendon]

as for an answer to your question, us no-lifers probs play it more than enough to answer almost any question you have.
the big boi can occasionally glitch-out and not drop the key. Best solution is to restart/wait for server reset and try again.

[cunning wraith]

Sorry i will unping

[cunning wraith]

I was try it and not working

[inner tendon]

Okay, have you tried getting it from the box? That's where I got mine.
IIRC the tank spawned key isn't supposed to happen.

the box is just before the big boi.

[cunning wraith]

Yeah that one key

[cunning wraith]

Box you mean inside second room? When you go outside?

[inner tendon]

just before the big boi, yeah.
there's a kinda key-box on the wall, the same kind of one that you get Faction Keys from.

[cunning wraith]

But i have opened that box on the wall on left side of door

And i never been there

First time when going in that room the box is open

[inner tendon]

yeah like I said, you have to wait for the daily reset for it to be closed again.
that's how those boxes work, same as the CP reward crates.

[cunning wraith]

And which time? Im GMT +1

[inner tendon]

If you open the map and go to "Projects", when a Daily one runs out, that's the daily Server Reset.

[cunning wraith]

Ok I will check it

[tight coral]

is anyone having an issue updating the game ??

[cunning wraith]

no, what problem you have

[tight coral]

I can't update the game\

[cunning wraith]

i dont have any issue, only now the servers are in maintenance ....but new major update arrive this year

[tight coral]

thanks for helping me but I fixt it

[cunning wraith]

And what was been issue?

[tight coral]

restart the computer

[opal hatch]

do anyone have a problem of opening the raid chest on Iron Horse operation? Because I already have 15 Iron Horse Chyper Fragments but for some reason I still cant open it , do i need to do something first or is this a bug?

[grand nebula]

you can only open it once per last boss kill

[foggy needle]

also must be on normal.

[opal hatch]

the thing i never open it, like ever

[grand nebula]

as azur said, has to be on normal dificulty

[opal hatch]

wait lemme check/ask if my last raid was on normal difficulty

[grand nebula]

other than that you gotta send a print or video of the issue cus i cant see what else it could be

[opal hatch]

hm.. alright ill take a note on that next time i do a raid

pretty sure it was on normal, not in discovery

[naive forge]

how many exotic backpacks there are? I know 2, the Memento and Acosta's

are there more?

[foggy needle]

thats it

[naive forge]

thank you

[foggy needle]

Full list of all game items in the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice as well 😄

[weary lagoon]

wanted to ask just reached lvl 40 do i just dismantle/sell all the lvl 30 gears i got from pre-warlords?

[tulip fiber]

Keep the exotics. You can upgrade them. Everything else sell or destroy.

[honest jungle]

hello, are there any news regarding heartlands or new content for td2?

[foggy needle]

no new news, besides "still being worked on."

still same ETA as well.

[honest jungle]

Alright thanks

[weary lagoon]

aiite thanks

[naive forge]

is it possible to get hunters furry set piece with primary blue?

[true siren]

nope, it will only drop with a redcore

but the secondary attribute could be blue, thats up to chance

[naive forge]

thanks

whats the drop % of an exotic as a reward?

[tulip matrix]

You just have to reroll the core too blue

[naive forge]

how do i do that?

[nimble spruce]

recalibration table

assuming you've extracted blue armor cores previously

[naive forge]

i dont know how to do that either 😄

[nimble spruce]

yeah maybe watch/read some kind of guide to the recalibration table (assuming you're far enough into the main story to have unlocked it)

[naive forge]

i reahed level 40 2 days ago and im just trying to make my own build, so yeah i guess i need to do that

[nimble spruce]

there might be an ingame tutorial about it, I'm not sure - they explained when you originally unlock it

[tulip fiber]

Go to the recalibration station. Then attributes. Select the gear or weapon category and then if you have a higher percentage on your person rather than the library, you can extract the attribute. It will destroy the item though. You can also recalibrate an attribute. Essentially replacing it. Just once per gear or weapon item though.

[naive forge]

many thanks

[shrewd flare]

Is there a way i can my appearance mod on at all-time s

[naive forge]

yes press F it works on all except exotics

[shrewd flare]

Im on ps

[naive forge]

should be a button for mod

then you can choose colours and appearances

[shrewd flare]

I meant how do i keep it after change gear

[pure lark]

Hello, just joined the discord. Introducing myself

[shrewd flare]

Hi

[naive forge]

what do you mean change gear?

[pure lark]

Anyone able to play wanna play? None of my friends play anymore and looking for some fun.

[naive forge]

im farming memento if youre level 40 you can join me

[pure lark]

SHD level or gear?

I’m down to farm with you

[naive forge]

alr ign TGGecko420

i have an open lobby

[nimble spruce]

just be aware that crossplay doesn't exist and your name colours suggest you're on different systems

red is PS, purple is PC

[naive forge]

oh

[pure lark]

Oh sorry - new to the discord thanks for the info @nimble spruce

[nimble spruce]

unless one of you picked the wrong 'role' in the server roles

[pure lark]

I’m PS

[ivory sundial]

Then you can ask in #lfg-playstation

[ivory sundial]

How do you keep what?

Appearance mods?

If you mean those you have to individually change them to the new gears

[novel plank]

best ways to get an exotic? specifically memento and the chameleon

[naive forge]

targeted loot

[ivory sundial]

Target loot backpacks for memento

Bounties on high difficulty for chameleon

[nocturne inlet]

If you skip to 30 do you not get bonus xp for different world tier lvl?

[novel plank]

any specific difficulty?

[ivory sundial]

You won’t even be in the world tier levels if you skip to 30

[ivory sundial]

Heroic

[naive forge]

where do i change the difficulty?

[tulip fiber]

Open the map, on the bottom, change global settings

[naive forge]

thanks

[tulip fiber]

Sure

[naive forge]

do you know whats the % chance for exotic to drop or be rewarded?

[tulip fiber]

1,3,5 and 7%. Normal through Heroic difficulty I believe. Don’t quote me.

[novel plank]

what difficulty do you guys recommend for someone fresh out of WONY?

[tulip fiber]

I just went through them until it got too easy, then I went up.

[true siren]

This is for boss kills, we dont know the general numbers

[tulip fiber]

Thanks

[blissful geyser]

I remember listening to one of the comms that said there were unactivated agents, the Fourth Wave. But I don't see any Third Wave or Fourth Wave mentions on the wiki... So are we the Second Wave of agents or the Third Wave?

[vast oar]

From my understanding, you are playing Second Wave both in Div 1 and Div 2

[cunning wraith]

Hi guys, i was finished all side mission and still see 36/40 (90%)done , but I didn’t see in list missed side missions to reach 100%. I was check DC and NYC and didn’t see anything

[blissful geyser]

Some of them are hidden, you have to be really close to them to have one spawn. So either go explore the map or look it up

[weary lagoon]

where do i farm Artist's Tool weapon?

[blissful geyser]

I did 100F Summit farms and selected rifle as my targeted loot.

[trim needle]

Is dismantling high end gear the only way to get high end materials to use on optimization?

[tulip fiber]

Can craft also

[dusky berry]

Heyy guests i want to do the raid in normal mode but its set on discovery how to change it cant seem to find a option or anything in that matter

[blissful geyser]

Make a new one.

[grand nebula]

lol what

[hallow saddle]

Wts the max shd levels needed to have all attributes max?

[willow gale]

999

[crisp oracle]

is the summit worth farming solo ? or better farm as group instead and use open world and missions for solo ?
cause the drop rate is just terrible alone

[foggy needle]

everywhere is worth farming solo.

summit drop rates is tied for open world farming (both top)

[crisp oracle]

huh? what do you mean tied for open world farming ?

[foggy needle]

this Best target loot farming: Lincoln >> open world zones = summit >>> everything else.

[crisp oracle]

i play on heroic , i went through an entire floor , and only got one single enemy to drop one bad item .

[foggy needle]

the drop rate is the exact same in summit as everywhere else.

[crisp oracle]

i duno , that doesn't seem to be the case in my experience , it's always feeling slow farming when i'm solo in summit

[foggy needle]

i mean RNG is still RNG.

[crisp oracle]

the RNG really hates me this much in summit ? i mean outside i'm getting tons of drops

[foggy needle]

for summit you want to be farming the higher floors, the easy challenges and or boss floors

those match farming outside summit drop rates.

[crisp oracle]

so ... basically the enemies in floors are like an extra for chance of drop but the actual thing is challenges,boxes and bosses

i understood correctly ?

[foggy needle]

well yea, thats the exact same as outside of summit too.

[crisp oracle]

maybe i feel the same because i'm kinda quicker outside than in the summit ,okey thanks

[chilly grove]

Did the enemy targeting change? They seem to go for the head more often now. My agent is dropping before the deflector shield gets destroyed

[foggy needle]

nope and thats normal.

If you are too close, the enemies just shoot around the deflector shield.

[coral harbor]

anyone can help me with one hunter in new york?, cant spawn him for some reason -.-

[cunning wraith]

Try it at night

[coral harbor]

I have tryed 5 times, does not spawn 🥴

[hallow saddle]

Wt build should i use in dh with bullet king

[coral harbor]

Use a dps build 💪

[hallow saddle]

Well full metal jacket or should i swap pieces for lmg usage???

[coral harbor]

I have build with bullet king, i can send you screenshots off it

[twilit otter]

For Dark Hours most people roll with an AR and a rifle

[vast oar]

Which hunter are you going for?

[coral harbor]

The one with neurotic mask 🥴😁

[vast oar]

For which stage do you use BK for? I typically maybe only pull it out for very last part of stage 4 when you shoot the consoles but that is about it

[vast oar]

OHHH, yeah. That was complete and utter annoying to spawn. Took me and a buddy 3 seperate tries

If you roughly follow the times shown in the vid, it should spawn? But I think we eventually just gave up on the vid and just hit the 2 buttons in the morning and shot out the box at night

[nimble spruce]

I followed the rather stricter timestamps listed here and it worked (last week): https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/gi6im8/unable_to_spawn_the_hunter_for_the_neurotic_mask/

[coral harbor]

Did you try same day 3 times or the next day? 🥴

[nimble spruce]

also the 'no fast travel' thing, although I am rather dubious whether that actually helps, if it's just random buggy then people will assign all sorts of weird hypothetical causes

[vast oar]

We tried it on 3 seperate days. 1st try and 2nd try were on 2 seperate in game days, the 3rd try was a week later irl

[coral harbor]

Oh 😁 have to try tomorrow then 😅

And i have a problem with the 4 last hunters, i cant press F on the pc for some reason 🥴

[vast oar]

To be honest, the 3rd try was a week later IRL cuz we rage quit getting that hunter for the day and went to the summit instead

[vast oar]

You sure you were in the right building?

[coral harbor]

Yea iam, i have watched yt videos, but the pc do not work, i have tryed many times 🥴

[nimble spruce]

was that on the generator in the food court area?

[coral harbor]

The generator's

[nimble spruce]

there's a couple in the same area, I got confused at first because I was trying the wrong one

[vast oar]

You can't do the generator? Did you turn on the computer in the building, shoot all of the christmas trees, then get the key?

[coral harbor]

The problem is that, i cant turn on the computer in the buildning 😳😅

[vast oar]

Hmm, I never had that issue. I really don't know how to fix that issue

It always worked perfectly for me

[coral harbor]

Can you do redo the hunters now?, or is that just a one time only? 🤔

[nimble spruce]

maybe put together a video of you approaching and trying to turn it on, so people can see (for bug report or incase they spot you're looking in the wrong place)

one time only on the mask hunters

[vast oar]

You can redo them as many times as you need. Once you kill them, then they won't work

[nimble spruce]

sorry yeah, one time only once you get the masks & keys, but you can keep trying before that

[coral harbor]

Oh 😅 i think he spawned once but did get away 🤦

[vast oar]

No worries, you can spawn him again. As long as you didn't kill him, you should be fine

[coral harbor]

Yea 😅, i did not get the mask, so he is the only one i need 🥴

[vast oar]

Yep, good luck!

[coral harbor]

Ty for help 💪😁

[hallow saddle]

Rifle not my cup of tea tbh i can use it but eh

[hallow saddle]

Havent done it yet stull getting rest of my god rolls

[twilit otter]

Well you can use whatever you want but raid teams may not take you

[hallow saddle]

I use em but their in rare cases i gpt a nemesis and other shit

[twilit otter]

You won't use that for DH

[hallow saddle]

Wts recommended rifle

[dull frost]

for MMR build what should i farm first? probably mantis?

[twilit otter]

Good rifle is the classic m1a with ranger, boomerang or rifleman

[hallow saddle]

Aight

[twilit otter]

Good ARs would be Famas or Police M4, there's others but those are pretty solid

Carbine is another good one

[vast oar]

Dark Hours a little bit more flexible
Its Iron Horse that is very hard to do without the right build

[twilit otter]

Yeah DH you can carry but just trying to help him get setup incase he wants to do IH too

[vast oar]

Ofc, I love people who go into DH with a good build for their first time

Makes it easier for us to teach mechanics too

[twilit otter]

Oh yeah it means people actually wanna learn and cooperate

[hallow saddle]

I got burn out

Im planning to do both raids

[twilit otter]

You could use Burn Out for now, something better will come along the way

[vast oar]

Start with DH first

[twilit otter]

DH is just a dps check

[vast oar]

Also can give you the eagle bearer which is a nice assault rifle

[hallow saddle]

Thats mainly what im doing dh for but isnt farm once a week

[twilit otter]

Yeah but if you have other characters you could farm some more. Most raid groups are willing to drop it for you though

[hallow saddle]

Oh its not account wide

[twilit otter]

Nope

[hallow saddle]

Ight pretty surr ill have everything by tmw or pretty close to it

[vast oar]

You can strive for perfect god rolls but in my experience, as long as you have 1 god rolled stat on each piece and everything else being close to god rolled, you should be good to raid

[hallow saddle]

Had an old friend from division 1 help me get god rolls on everything so um good on that

[vast oar]

Perfect then

[naive forge]

which raid do i have to go to get the eagle bearer?

[willow gale]

dark hours on normal

[naive forge]

thanks

[true acorn]

Quick question, if a friend just puts me in the mission to kill Faye Lau, will I obtain the Achilles pulse?

[naive forge]

if i recalibrate a talent on chest piece will i still be able to optimize the sub-stats and core?

[tulip fiber]

You should be able to. It’s at the beginning of the mission.

[tulip fiber]

Yes, provided you haven’t recalibrated a stat already

[fervent wedge]

what is the easiest way to get exotic stuff in game (just finished the dlc im lvl 40)

[tulip fiber]

Target loot weapons. ARs, LMGs, etc

[naive forge]

do the donation project and go complete Kenley collage, after do targeted loot depending on which exotics you want

[fervent wedge]

the one to donate suplies?

the weekly one

[naive forge]

ye

gives you an exotic cache

[fervent wedge]

oh i did that yesterday

only got a DZ exotic mask

what about weapons and such?

[naive forge]

Kenley collage gaves you Diamondback

exotic rifle

[fervent wedge]

i see

its a hunting rifle or something right

[naive forge]

ye

its super op for headshot crit dmg builds

[winter mason]

Hello

[bronze berry]

[winter mason]

If i remember correctly, the golden bullet effect was team based? if i kill an npc with golden bullet it extends all team mates GB timer, im i wrong? idk

[naive forge]

the one who kills gets the buff

[viscid kraken]

whats the best way to farm for the bullet king?

[ivory sundial]

Try getting chameleon

Exotic AR

Can drop from bounties

[ivory sundial]

Farm LMG target loot or tombs and wall street

But mainly farm target loot

[fervent wedge]

i see

[blissful geyser]

There are global events that reward you with stars, use those to buy Exotic Caches from the Event Vendor

[ivory sundial]

If you finished the raid this week, is that the only chqnce to get the exotic weapon?

[blissful geyser]

you can still join and hope that the other ppl who open the 'end dungeon loot crate' drops one and gives it to you

[ivory sundial]

No i have all 3 im just wondering

[ivory sundial]

Whats sys core do?

I have a few pieces

Just never use them

[frank aspen]

System corr?

[ivory sundial]

Ye

[frank aspen]

Does stuff..

[ivory sundial]

Like?

[nimble spruce]

Like it says in their descriptions

[frank aspen]

Can’t see the effect, but it gives 15.0% Armour on Kill on 2 pieces

+40% for pulse and disrupt resist

Looks like a PvP thing

[true siren]

Thats eclipse protocol

Syscorr is the infinite medkit but bonus armor

[vast oar]

This is my brain after not playing for 6 months

KEKW

[true siren]

no worries, mistakes happen

[runic schooner]

Weekly donation project and weekly legendary mission yeah, but also the 30 floors summit thing isn‘t that much effort. And you go for your selected loot target while doing that project. You‘ll recognize that you collect a bunch of exoctics you never need.

*exotics

[molten stone]

is there anyway to change the FOV on PC?

[vast oar]

Yep, in the gameplay settings

There is an additional FOV slider

[primal robin]

Any advice for making finding rogue agents easier? trying to finish ridgeways pride and thats the only step i have left. World difficulty is currently on Heroic and i have been doing control points as well as missions

[vast oar]

You can try the summit. Just keep going up to your checkpoint on challenging and just keep resetting until they show up

[primal robin]

shit, what if im on floor 1, i very recently finsihed summit, will they still spawn?

[vast oar]

They should be able to, I don't see why not

[primal robin]

fosho fosho, so just keep going back to lobby and back to the floor?

[vast oar]

Yeah

[primal robin]

ill definitely try it out, hella appreciate the advice fam

[vast oar]

No probs

[molten stone]

thank you. i'm new to this game on PC so trying to get all my settings locked in

[vast oar]

No worries

[blissful geyser]

Equip Pulse when ISAC tells you they are nearby

[nimble spruce]

NPC rogues, not DZ ones

[wary shale]

which chem launhcer can profit from "damage" - for burn, it's bnurn strength, right?

[ivory sundial]

I had 2pings from here

One from odder about sys core

Idk what the other is

[short thicket]

hello where do I get ironworks base materials? is for the inicitive future proyect

[vast oar]

I believe from the Iron Horse Raid, or from deconstructing FI or FB gear sets

[hallow grove]

only from the raid IH

[ivory sundial]

They drop from all bosses and key boxes

[misty fern]

What's one of the more rare builds you see in groups these days? Snipers, debuffers/support, healers, etc.

[vast oar]

Definitely don't see many people running around with CC builds too often. At least, Eclipse Protocol CC.

[nimble spruce]

don't see many healers, but that's good cause most players don't run builds that depend upon them

[blissful geyser]

As I said, you can still equip Pulse when ISAC tells you they are nearby

[viscid nova]

whats going on with division 2, i keep getting a delta 05

[blissful geyser]

try verifying your game files

[regal abyss]

Is it worth playing the story in the Div1 or does Div2 sum everything up?

[shell osprey]

It'll give snippets and recaps of the first game from point to point at different times, and reference it a few times.

[tulip pumice]

Any1 with insights/links to how to manage inventory with 4 toons (2 @ 40)? Seems like I'm swapping 2 much...

[ivory sundial]

for the FI and FB projects can the set pieces from TL be donated?

[fallow inlet]

Yes but you can't farm chest or backpack those are raid locked

[ivory sundial]

kewl beeans

[fallow inlet]

@ivory sundial check general chat

[ivory sundial]

i saw

i was wondering even though i have regulus already

[fallow inlet]

Do you have the ravenous or regulos?
Ravenous they give away regulos are thru projects

[rough shadow]

Is there a way to find ridgeway already done? Or i have to “craft” it?

[runic schooner]

After you crafted it you are able to find it as loot like any other exo.

But first ist has to be crafted.

I guess it can be shared as usual by players who already got it but I‘m not sure.

[ivory sundial]

Both

[tidal rampart]

one of my friend's game keeps freezing and crashing, anyone experienced the same and have a fix? ( he tried both starting the game from ubisoft launcher and from file)

[serene ember]

what's the most aloha weapon skin?

[ruby sonnet]

Try fixing the framerate to 55 or 60

[tidal rampart]

its at 60

[ruby sonnet]

as fixed?

[tidal rampart]

aam idk yet, didnt crash in the last few 1-2h, the thing is he had oc, he removed the oc, if it crashes on 60 will try on 55, the error said " low framerate" which is weird

[ruby sonnet]

ah

after I limited the frame rate, the crashes came not so often

Don't know that error

was it a division/ubisoft error message?

[tidal rampart]

no, was in files

[hallow saddle]

after i get eb will it be in the loot pool?

[foggy needle]

nope

Raid exclusives stay in raids.

[narrow kraken]

Can skill mod configurations be stored in loadouts the way gear mods are?

Thought of this after fixing the reason why I kept unequipping a CHC mod on my Backfire loadout - I'd saved it with an empty mod slot by mistake...

[foggy needle]

Yup, same.

[crisp oracle]

can someone tell me exactly how does headhunter works and what does it scale with ? because i just found someone explaining it on reddit and i went nuts

[true siren]

Headshot 1- normal headshot
Headshot 2- more damage

[crisp oracle]

https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/goqn44/how_headhunter_works/

then what is that person talking about ?

i mean , i noticed that pistol and shotgun part since i use shotgun as secondary weapon and i do actually get 1 shot kill when i have the bonus on

[true siren]

Get a headshot kill with a weapon, the damage that shot did is stored (plus some extra damge) and given to your next shot

[crisp oracle]

the first part is simple and easy , but the 2nd part , does this mean it stacks up to 800% and if my HSD is 150%+ it goes up to 1250%?so i need more than one headshot to reach the cap ?

[true siren]

Take weapon damage, multiply by 15 or whatever, boom you have the cap, the bonus damage cannot exceed that

[crisp oracle]

he says that the max bonus i can get is 1500% indeed

but that's only as bonus right ? like the attribute as core from items are separate from that ? like if i have all max rolled in red which is max damage , then the bonus i can get over that is capped with 1500%?

[true siren]

I dont follow, what are you asking?

[crisp oracle]

okey , let's say now that i have max weapon damage on all pieces of gear , including max on the weapon itself , okey?

and i have 60% critical chance , and max crit damage i can get from all gear pieces and primary weapon , so far good ?

[true siren]

Alright.

[crisp oracle]

those are all core attributes from gear , no bonus damage from anything nor talents even

[true siren]

Mhm.

[crisp oracle]

so , the cap of 1500% damage , includes those attributes , or it counts only AS BONUS from other things aside of the attributes?

like talents of all sorts and any kind of skill and so on

[true siren]

It only would include the +weapon damage, but only the ones that are always on.

Crit damage is conditional, and not part of weapon damage with how headhunter works.

[nimble spruce]

1500% is of weapon damage only (I think includes red cores but NOT talents like Total Weapon Damage or crit damage, HSD etc)

[crisp oracle]

okey , so the crits and hsd are not included , only bonus weapon damage that is capped

[nimble spruce]

yup, and that bonus damage is not boosted by crit (if it is a crit) or other multipliers

[crisp oracle]

but that means , the more weapon damage i get , the higher the crits / HSDs ?

[true siren]

By definition, yes

[crisp oracle]

now i understand why weapon damage is the most important thing in any damage build ...

okey so one quick question , does that mean , HSD is calculated by weapon damage multiplied by the percentage of HSD ?

[true siren]

It is but also isnt. If you have great weapon damage but no crit, no headshot, and no amps, your damage will still be bad

[crisp oracle]

well, yes of course

[true siren]

Simply put yes, more complicated no but also still yes

[crisp oracle]

that just confused me 😂

[true siren]

Someone has the full damage formula, let me grab it

[crisp oracle]

okey , here's what i just tested in the shooting range just few minutes ago

i have 3 snipers , mantis , white death and nemesis , now i tried with mantis "lowest damage of all 3" , i reached 18m with chainkiller , used white death , reached 22m , used the nemesis and i was hitting from the beginning 21m reached 48m , which was crazy

that means , weapon damage plus the actual damage of the weapon multiplied by the headshot i land on the target plus HSD percentage . am i right?

[true siren]

Mantis has amp damage built in that isnt applied when you are in shooting range. White death is good. And nemesis hits like a truck because it charges.

[true siren]

Someone has the damage formula, just use that

[crisp oracle]

yeah the 50% of the targets aren't looking at you

[crisp oracle]

where? who ?

[true siren]

@grand nebula @foggy needle either of you nerds have the damage formula?

[foggy needle]

FYI amps, TWD, WD and HSD all boost HH damage. WD and HSD upto the cap and TWD and amps both still increase past its cap iirc.

[grand nebula]

multiply everything

[crisp oracle]

lol and Eph just comes in smashing the door into pieces 😄

[foggy needle]

lol

[crisp oracle]

what's TWD ?

[foggy needle]

total weapon damage (ie vigliance)

[crisp oracle]

ahhhhhhhhh

[crisp oracle]

okey i want to know what did you mean by that part

[true siren]

Btw yes i did just pawn this question off shamefully

Not my responsibility anymore

Popcorn time

[crisp oracle]

hahahaha you did your best xD

looks like you'll be eating popcorn watching nothing xD

[true siren]

It happens

[crisp oracle]

well , it's at the end of it tho

i mostly know what i need now more than before that's for sure

just few more details and it's all good

[foggy needle]

IIRC
---highest HH damage is TOTS + chain killer + Airald vigilance.
---still insane damage but fastest stacking 4 Aces + chain killer + Airald vigilance.

[crisp oracle]

okey , real quick ,what's HH and TOTS?

oh nevermind , headhunter , sorry

tip of the spear used for sniper build ?! that feels weird to me to know 😮

i didn't know that set is used like at all

[foggy needle]

tots = tip of the spear.

TOTS has 2 strong uses really. sniper build (as said above) or spec weapon build. both can be really strong. Spec weapon version is 1 of my favs too

requires GC and TOTS backpack for it.

[crisp oracle]

GC?

[foggy needle]

glass cannon.

[crisp oracle]

ow 😮

what's spec it used ?

[foggy needle]

best with Demo, tech and xbow for the spec weapon build.

[crisp oracle]

i never thought spec weapon can even be used as a build , do you like ever run out of ammo ?

[foggy needle]

yes BUT you get ammo back very fast. And still have good weapon damage.

[crisp oracle]

and for sniper , you use 3 or 4 pieces of TOTS ?

[foggy needle]

IIRC tech launcher in that build does ~5.5m damage per rocket (and they are AOE hehe). Demo is ~4.5 per shell and even bigger aoe.

4 pc TOTS builds for both.

[crisp oracle]

if only i could show you what i'm using right now

[foggy needle]

for ALL gear sets, you run 4pc or zero, never worth running less for any set.

[crisp oracle]

good point

is there a way to show you what i'm using ?

[foggy needle]

upload screenshot to an image site, then post here.

[crisp oracle]

yeah that's the easy part , but it'd be 3 pictures 🤔

[foggy needle]

just need 1

[crisp oracle]

https://i.imgur.com/uZ9moUQ.png

will that do then ?

[true siren]

shotgun why?

[crisp oracle]

in case of close target came out of nowhere or i didn't notice

[foggy needle]

put vigilance on backpack and id personally use AR, SMG as secondary.

[crisp oracle]

when i have the HH bonus , it dies 1-2 shots , mostly 1

why these 2 choices ?

using vigilance with me somehow i still get shot or hit even with decoy on , which is annoying , it disables the buff

[true siren]

use a shield, play better, both

[crisp oracle]

shield ?with sniper ?

[true siren]

if you are moving from one spot to another & wanna keep vig, yeah, dont need to shoot

[vast oar]

Also, make sure you toss the decoy to your left or right, not in front of you

[crisp oracle]

that sounds interesting , yeah i always put it away from my front sight

and definitely not behind me either

[vast oar]

Yeah, you want it to be as far enough horizontally from you as possible

To be honest though, snipers do better when you have a team

There is less chance that the enemies will go for you

[foggy needle]

Also when placing decoy, be sure to hid the base, so it can be near immortal.

[crisp oracle]

like hull down concept in tanks ?

[vast oar]

Yeah, because the enemies needs to shoot the base of the decoy to damage it, so if you put the base behind some cover, they will spam shots either into the cover or through the hologram

Then its just a matter of skill duration

[crisp oracle]

cool , i never though of that to be honest , thanks for the good tip 🙂

[granite sphinx]

i got the merciless from the version of the game i bought and its level 1 how can i re craft it to be level 40

[vast oar]

You need to get a Merciless at lvl 40, and reskin it into the Ruthless

And if you are really completionist, get another merciless

[granite sphinx]

is there an easy way to get a level 40 version or do i have to farm

and is lullaby good

[narrow kraken]

Do anything that gives exotic caches at level 40 or just grind, you will eventually get some

[granite sphinx]

ok

any easy ways to get food

[vast oar]

You have to farm

[narrow kraken]

Emphasis on eventually. Lullaby is pretty fun to play as a melee weapon, although it doesn't work on elites

[vast oar]

The Lullaby is a reskin on the Sweet Dreams, there are fringe uses for it, primary one is first boss on the Iron Horse raid

[granite sphinx]

ok

[vast oar]

If you are talking about a shotgun that is more all purpose, the scorpio does a way better job

[granite sphinx]

i want to get bullet king as i had it on console but nobody is running it, is it still worth getting or should i just farm summet for shotgun for the scorpio

[narrow kraken]

I mean... the Scorpio does everything at close range short of giving you armor on kill or fixing your real life problems...

[granite sphinx]

yh

i want it bad but summet is the only way

or nyc

[vast oar]

Bullet King is still decent and also has a use in the Iron Horse raid

[granite sphinx]

do you want to run a few wall streets

[vast oar]

Wait, hang on, isnt Scorpio on the season track right now?

[granite sphinx]

yh

at 55

[vast oar]

Don't need to farm for it, just speed level to 55 and it is guaranteed

[granite sphinx]

how

[crisp oracle]

if i want to farm a specific piece with a specific brand , do i target loot the piece or the brand ?

[granite sphinx]

it takes ages

[granite sphinx]

brand

[vast oar]

Elite Convoys or Control Points, Heroic, 4 Directives

Basically 1 level per clear

[granite sphinx]

bro im so weak

[vast oar]

Or there is the farm at Summit floor 10

[granite sphinx]

wt

[vast oar]

Heroic, 5 Directives, Go to floor 10, kill the boss but don't kill the last enemies, die, repeat

[granite sphinx]

wt difficulty

[vast oar]

Heroic

[granite sphinx]

f

[vast oar]

Normally there are people farming

[granite sphinx]

is there

[vast oar]

I saw a few times in #lfg-pc over the past week or so

You could ask in there and see if anyone is willing

[granite sphinx]

idk it seems dead

[vast oar]

To be fair, a lot of people are not playing cuz their agent is invisible right now, or they have crashing issues

[granite sphinx]

hm

[vast oar]

Even so, I cleared 30 floors of summit the other day to help people with exotic chaches

8 levels instantly on normal

[granite sphinx]

can you help me

and wym with exotic caches

[vast oar]

You can get 3 exotic caches a week

[granite sphinx]

wt

[vast oar]

They will guarantee an exotic

[granite sphinx]

how

[vast oar]

1 is from donating materials and supplies, 1 is from summit 30 floors, 1 from clearing the weekly legendary stronghold

[granite sphinx]

ik

im trying to get food i just cant do the stronghold

[vast oar]

They are all listed under your projects

What is the stronghold this week?

[granite sphinx]

cap hill

[vast oar]

Hmm, yikes

Very easy with 4 people, I don't think I can solo carry

[granite sphinx]

if we can find 1 or 2 more you think you can help me

[vast oar]

I got to go in an hour so if we can get it done before then, I can help out

[granite sphinx]

hm

ill look

[vast oar]

Also, you could turn the Golden Bullet event on and do the missions

[granite sphinx]

and how can i get food fast

[vast oar]

You get stars which you can trade for exotic caches

[granite sphinx]

wt is that

[vast oar]

The event that is going on right now

[granite sphinx]

im so dumb bro im a returning player help

[vast oar]

If you turn it on, enemies will sometimes start crafting a golden bullet. If they make it, they will output a lot of damage. However, if you kill 1 that made it or is making it, you get the golden bullet and have increased damage and rate of fire

[granite sphinx]

and wt do i do

[granite sphinx]

wt is this for

[vast oar]

After you do the missions, such as killing 200 enemies with a golden bullet, you can get a star

[granite sphinx]

ohhhh

[vast oar]

These stars can be traded for exotic caches

[granite sphinx]

that thing

[sacred lynx]

You have to enable the event from the seasons tab if you haven't

[sacred ember]

I recently hit 40 and completed the story (4 hours ago) and its feeling a little overwhelming with the information I have been and still need to absorb to understand sets etc etc. I have a couple questions.

1. I like being a demo is that bad for a newbie?
2. Is there a super basic build I can put together and then expand on?
3. Does it really matter what type my primary weapons are being a demo? I like having an SMG and Rifle/Marksman rifle.

[true siren]

read the pinned message in this chat, read through the guide

it'll explain a lot

[supple swift]

incorrect

[vast oar]

Never did it personally

[supple swift]

10 F Heroic 10 directives
kill everything.
wipe

[vast oar]

Sounds good, thanks for the correction

[supple swift]

just sharing. all good

[snow ocean]

To get assault rifle alloy blueprint I just need to clear control points at lvl 3 or higher right? Like is is random what blueprint will be dropped or is a specific control point for a specefic blueprint

[tulip fiber]

All random

[snow ocean]

Thank you!

[viscid kraken]

so how do invaded missions work, you need to do 3 before you can do the tidal basin right?

[tulip fiber]

The three invaded, invaded stronghold, then Tidal opens
