[umbral lantern]

thanks for the help!
means lots!

[lavish blade]

Coney island is in DC or NY ?

[foggy needle]

DC

came out in the patch before WONY

[lavish blade]

Okki thnkx.

👍

[umbral lantern]

is the pest in dc or nyc only?

[foggy needle]

Dc

[umbral lantern]

oh ok thanks!

[foggy needle]

Fyi you can check the spreadsheet, it has items listed by DC or NYC

[umbral lantern]

where is it?

[foggy needle]

island on the map north of white house

need to be at least world tier 1 iirc

[grand nebula]

all items drop in both maps if you own the dlc

[foggy needle]

i dont think he has DLC

[cedar monolith]

Pest is in the DZ only anyway

[grand nebula]

that is not true

[umbral lantern]

yea i dont

[cedar monolith]

Never had it drop elswhere

[umbral lantern]

well i cant contact ubisoft support, anyone know why referall codes isnt working for me, it says im not eligible even tho i linked my acc and bought the game

[grand nebula]

and ive never seen atoms with my bare eyes, doesnt mean they dont exist
DZ exclusive exotics have been moved out of the DZ for longer than they were exclusive for now

[cedar monolith]

Depends really i suppose but they are real common in dz

[umbral lantern]

ye they are real common there but i think if you have targeted loot there they are pretty common

[cedar monolith]

Eh they easy to get at lvl 40 they tend to drop every 6-9 landmarks for me

[umbral lantern]

nice

[umbral lantern]

but anyone know a fix for this?

[narrow matrix]

It drops more often in dz than anything else

[narrow matrix]

Why can’t you contact them?

Your details aren’t specific are you trying to link with to the friend referral program or have a friend link to yours

[umbral lantern]

nope

it wont let me get my link

[narrow matrix]

Type in google division 2 friend referral program

Copy the link

[umbral lantern]

i did

[narrow matrix]

Hit windows key + v

[umbral lantern]

it says i am not eligible for the content

[narrow matrix]

See if it’s on your clipboard

[umbral lantern]

when i login

[narrow matrix]

How? Did you already finish all 3 slots?

[umbral lantern]

no

[narrow matrix]

Try in #unofficial-troubleshooting

But Ubisoft is your best bet

[umbral lantern]

sure

it says cuz of covid they cant check issues

it wont let me send mine

[narrow matrix]

…

Submit a ticket cause I didn’t have that issue when I contacted them

Don’t use their preset automated options

[umbral lantern]

oh ok

[lavish blade]

So I cant extract from weapon attributes that i bpught from vendor? Is that true?

[narrow matrix]

No?

[tulip fiber]

Not true. You can’t extract perfect attributes/talents. You can even craft items and extract from there as well

You can’t share items bought or crafted, but you can extract

[lavish blade]

So I CANT extract perfect attributes ? Rest of them i can from wrapon bought from vendor

[tulip fiber]

Right. Like the Armor on Kill from the Mop, or DeathGrips, or Future Perfection for example, those are exclusive to that weapon.

[lavish blade]

Nah bro. I just bought a AR from vendor. It has perfect ARdamage.

But in station I dont see any attributes for it. None

I rather see my other ones.

[scarlet lion]

That’s an attribute, not a talent

Perfect talents cannot be extracted

[lavish blade]

Thatd fine. Irrespective of perfect talent/ attributes.

The other attributes also dont show for that AR

It shows in library 1/12 which is my one old AR

[open solstice]

Are we talking level 40 gear, 30-39, or gear score (is that what it was called) and under?

[little dagger]

Maybe you are on lvl 30 library?

[open solstice]

That is what I was thinking, or it is god rolled level 32, but they extracted a level 33 that was 98% which is probably higher than the god rolled 32.

[lavish blade]

My station level is 31 - 40. I reclabirated 2 AR for level 40 just now.

Hence thpught of buying some and extracting from there but I dont see that AR anywhere

[open solstice]

So when you look at the AR in your inventory. Does it have a white triangle or a yellow/gold triangle on the attribute?

[lavish blade]

White triangle

[open solstice]

And the line / percentage goes past the white triangle. (Just making sure).

[lavish blade]

It crosses the white triangle. It fills the bar actually whereas the white traingle is in the middle

[open solstice]

Hmmm, and when you go to you recal library does it show the tick mark that you have something you can upgrade on in your AR library?

[lavish blade]

Yes it shows a tickmark but it shows 1/12, basically its showing an old AR that I can extract from.

Not this new one

[tulip fiber]

Should say upgrade available

[lavish blade]

I should have 2 /12

1 old ar
1 new ar

Where as is 1/12

The old one only. Pretty strange

[open solstice]

OK, I thought it was Weapon Damage is a core talent. That's what you are trying to extract, correct?

[lavish blade]

Yes i was trying to extract that, but irrespective no pther attributes from the AR is available.

Its like that AR is blocked or something.

[tulip fiber]

Did you optimize at all?

[open solstice]

I will log in. What AR and what Vendor.

[lavish blade]

Yes

Expect the new bought one and the old one

Check in the #td2-build-advice

I updated screenshots

[tulip fiber]

Purple items can’t have the max 15%, they have a different percentage. Also, if an attribute is optimized at all, any %, that can not be extracted.

[lavish blade]

I just bought from vendor, i want to extract from there. I havent optimised or reclaibrated that. Check the screenshots ud understand

[open solstice]

Your third image show Health Damage Extraction Required?

[foggy needle]

If you wish to send pics for trouble shoot, please use DM. @lavish blade

[lavish blade]

Ok

[lavish blade]

Thats the old AR.

[open solstice]

When you go in your recal library Are you clicking on Core Attributes instead of the default Attributes? Core Attributes can be 0/2, 1/2, or 2/2 for both "At Maximum Value" and "In Library" where Attributes could be 0/12 through 12/12.

[narrow matrix]

might as well just show a screenshot of what ur tryna extract

[lavish blade]

Cant send screenshots here

[narrow matrix]

upload it to imgur

send the link or just dm me the ss

[languid eagle]

So is Cassie’s items different for everybody?

Or are they all the same

[tulip fiber]

Same

[narrow kraken]

Except the Perfect Intimidate chest if that person didn't do the Hunter stuff

[lavish blade]

Thanks @narrow matrix @open solstice

[open solstice]

And the Shield Splinterer from the DC Hunters. (Hunter-Killer with Perfect Intimidate is from the NY [expansion] Hunters)

[lavish blade]

What to choose ?

Exotic kneepads with WD15 , CHC6 ,CHD12
OR
High end kneepads with WD15, CHD11,HD 12 +10% AR Damage ?

Exotic one is Parkour Parkour !

[grand nebula]

Depends on your build

Its like asking if you should have fries or sprinkles with your food

Sprinkles on a burger are weird

[lavish blade]

Good comparison. I generaly have Damage build with
R:4+7
B:2+3
Y:0+2

Use AR and SMG genrally. Kneepads are all red.

Im just comfused wether exotic has any advantages

It certaiy has decreased my AR damage.

[grand nebula]

well yea exotics usually arent the best source for max damage but instead alter your playstyle

your kneepads in a red weapon build usually should be Fox Prayers if you can spare the crit, in your case you should use your fenris ones most likely

having 3 blue atributes is a huge waste for your build

[lavish blade]

Fenris yeah. Gets me 10% AR damage

What should I do with those 3 blue. They are armour regen i guess.

[covert marsh]

do sesame seeds count as sprinkles

[scarlet lion]

I’d like to think so lol

[grand nebula]

you should get rid of those 3 blues for more reds

[scarlet lion]

Never though of them like that haha

[grand nebula]

only if you color them

[covert marsh]

that's fair

[glossy plover]

Is it worth doing the dz if I’m not max lvl?

[grand nebula]

not really

its barely worth it at max level either

[glossy plover]

Why’s that?

[grand nebula]

pvp is pretty shit, drops are shit and theres better ways to get the exclusives

[glossy plover]

Oh

[simple nexus]

explain please

[narrow matrix]

the pvp is completely toxic, you'll get a 1/10 drop thats actually good (just for argument purposes, that statistic isn't tested), extracting it is the hardest part after you've probably spent an hour farming for that item

named item caches from global events and leagues / season rewards are the more sufficient way to get them

[grand nebula]

https://i.redd.it/n7qco1a512e51.png
thats about 8 or 9 hours of Gift farming in the DZ, i dont believe further explanation is necessary

[narrow matrix]

oh god

thats disgusting

[simple nexus]

wow okay Named Item Caches

[foggy needle]

And that was a good eph farming day too!! 🤣

[quaint wind]

can I get famas normally?

[umbral lantern]

yes its a normal drop

try farming assault rifle targeted loot

[simple nexus]

you killes everyone

sorry i was wanting to reply to a friend who was discribing what happened in halo

[cyan cargo]

How many agents/characters can I create?

Right now I have 2 agents. Is there a limit?

[nimble spruce]

4

[low compass]

Mods in regards to specific turrets / hives, im unsure how to see whats actually helping me, for the turret for example, one mods says i have extra mortars, but thats only for the mortar-turret correct?

Even though i can put that mod on without using the mortar-version

[grand nebula]

yes its only for the mortar

most mods are mostly insignificant

[low compass]

So basicly wasting that mod-slot.

Ah i see, so its not super-important

[grand nebula]

mods save in your loadout aswell

so you can have your mortar turret loadout with mortar mod and just swap

[stable crescent]

was this before or after the first attribute 70% chance to match the Core? bcos you got 20% there
40% if you count second attribute

and it seems off

[grand nebula]

it was before, but if memory serves, they said it doesnt affect named items

[stable crescent]

alright

[slender marlin]

I got a somewhat good cmmg, what talents and attachments (I'm getting the attachments by clearing control points, please tell me if there's a faster method) are good for it?

I currently have strained

[slender marlin]

Right, I'm only getting weapon and gear bps, I haven't seen a single attachment bp drop

[fallow inlet]

Afternoon Kettle

[slender marlin]

?

[nimble spruce]

hey saph

[lavish blade]

What do you guys do with the gear sets you get that doesnt go with your build.?

[prisma whale]

Dismantle or sell

Depending on what you need

[inner tendon]

@lavish blade Library > Dismantle > Sell, in that order.

[foggy needle]

Store on alt, if god rolled.

[slender marlin]

The tooltip also says that some vendors sell them, but I haven't seen anyone from settlments selling one

[foggy needle]

It's just the vendor by the crafting bench, the blueprints vendor. It's random too

[narrow kraken]

I keep one of each named and set item in case I want to do something with it or maybe it becomes more appealing after an update

Like, I didn't get rid of striker and one day I came to it actually usable

[slender marlin]

Oh, tysm!

[sullen pine]

Guide

[gloomy crag]

Anyone know where I can get the outcasts optimization stuff. I don't have the blueprint to craft it but need 20 or so to optimize a peice

[tame mesa]

any tips so I wouldnt crash my game every 10 mins?

[grand nebula]

disable dx12

[tame mesa]

well that sucks I was liking the stable fps

hope they fix it

[lavish blade]

How do you get the 2 core attribute gears

[lavish blade]

Increase the paging file

[pliant vigil]

Forgot to get back to you, I managed to finish them off. I forgot how. Lol. 😂 But they're still there to defeat again.. With fresh rewards. For some reason.

Is The Send Off any fun? Finally passed stage 4 of the Technician.

[open maple]

👍

[cobalt oxide]

I'm gonna sound very stupid perhaps, but I only now discovered that the Raids have Keys you can find. Do you need those keys to eventually get Eagle Bearer? Or can it drop from just completing it?

[gritty nest]

small chance to drop from the boss

usually it drop from the box at the end

[cobalt oxide]

Good to know I've been running it all this time without knowing this 🤦‍♂️

[gritty nest]

i guess you only play discovery mode

[cobalt oxide]

Usually, yes

[gritty nest]

only normal mode have keys

[cobalt oxide]

Guess I should use the Discord from now on then

[nimble spruce]

yup, the lfg channel is the best place to find raids on pc if you're not in a clan that runs them

[lavish blade]

??

[dusk vortex]

You'll get the guarantee one from the 4th boss

[dusk vortex]

"eventually" is kinda generous saying it lol. Iirc the exotic chance from chest is ~10%

[dusky garnet]

I want to grind the Eagle Bearer Exotic, is the only way to get it from Raids?

[nimble spruce]

normal difficulty Dark Hours, yes

[dusky garnet]

But, there is no matchmaking:? 😅

[nimble spruce]

yeah, you wouldn't want it anyway, raids aren't all that easy and require decent team coordination and knowledge

[dusk vortex]

I'd imagine it'll be way more harder than 4 man rando leg lmao

More on IH, no teamwork = no team

[nimble spruce]

yeah, dark hours is more like no DPS = no win

[nimble spruce]

^

[dusky garnet]

But how i'm supposed to get knowledge if i can't play it :p

[nimble spruce]

watch/read youtube or reddit guides

[dusky garnet]

I played Discovery with randoms and it was my first time and we finished it :p

is that the same as normal?

[nimble spruce]

get yourself a good all-red crit damage build (eg full meta jacket from the spreadsheet pinned in #td2-build-advice )

[dusk vortex]

You can declare as new

[nimble spruce]

Discovery is weaker enemies and fewer/easier mechanics

[dusk vortex]

There's someone who's willing to teach you the ropes

Also youtube is your friend

Haven't seen the DH guid tbh but make sure it's recent enough lol, since the raid predates Gears 2.0 update

[umbral lantern]

how do i get more crafting upgrades?

[languid eagle]

You can get blueprints from challenging and above Control Points

[umbral lantern]

control points only?

[tulip fiber]

You looking for blue prints, materials or something else?

[umbral lantern]

blueprints to upgrade the crafting level

[inner tendon]

If you're trying to Craft Lvl 40 items, you need to upgrade the Bench, which requires you to own the WONY DLC.

[fallow inlet]

@dusk vortex look in raid disscussions i put a bare bones look at each raid

may have to scroll back a little

[quaint wind]

if i unlock the manhunt target jupiter what will he drop after killing him

[lavish blade]

Do we have to play the manhunt mission 2twice to conplete if im discovering for the first time?

Is there any way we can finish the same mission for story+manhunt at once

[fallow inlet]

@lavish blade if you boosted your going to have to do story then mission.

[lavish blade]

Damn.just figured that out. Thnkx

[fallow inlet]

thats why alot of us tell newplayers to do a story route ,you should getthru them in a hurry just speed run them

[soft wren]

still havent gotten the projects for regulus even tho i completed IH twice now

[inner tendon]

Did you complete it on Normal? Because it only counts on Normal.

[soft wren]

yes

[slender marlin]

Is clearing Alert 3 control points the fastest way to get attachments for weapons?

[inner tendon]

@soft wren You'll need to complete the Foundry+Future Projects first, that will give you an Exotic Project.

@slender marlin If you go to your Crafting Table, you can see where each craftable Blueprint is obtained from.

[soft wren]

havent got the first two projects

[blissful geyser]

better than grinding for them then 😛

raid exclusive thing, partially

[inner tendon]

Note: it's character specific.
Are you completing IH from the very start each time?

[soft wren]

it might be disconnecting

[umbral lantern]

how do i get gear dye

im trying to get a black on e but idk how

a black or gray

[soft wren]

i think its mostly apparel caches and side missions

[umbral lantern]

oke thanks!

[inner tendon]

There is a Pure Black Gear Dye available if you open the WONY Hunter Cache located in Haven.

[narrow kraken]

There's a solid black one that colours some parts from some failed supply drops hanging from parachutes

I looked up a dye guide for their location and started going through them until black dropped

[lavish blade]

My projects says "new project available" but there is no new project in DC as well as NY

Any idea why its showing that

[fallow inlet]

it might just be marked with the little blinky thing

in th e upper left corner

also check you settlements

[lavish blade]

It has an orange exclamation. I checked all settlements, ny ,dc

No projects

[fallow inlet]

ok last place to check is in the progress screen

[nimble spruce]

that's standard if you didn't buy the season pass (the pass gives you an extra daily project, but if you don't have it you'll still get that 'new project' notification even though you can't actually view/access it)

[wise vapor]

I am new to the division 2, and I got the ultimate edition and I first started the game and a screen popped up and it said select campaign. It gives me a choice Main campaign and it also gives me a choice to click warlords of New York. What one should I choose?

[tulip fiber]

Main. The one for Warlords is a boost. Just play through the main story first.

[wise vapor]

ok thanks

[lavish blade]

Thanks man. I was just mad trying to find new projects. And yes I dont have the season pass.

Qq, i have 24 stars. What should I get?

[narrow kraken]

named caches

or optim

[lavish blade]

Damn. Just opened an exotic. But i got a good bagpack.

[narrow kraken]

I opened two exotics to roll some stuff I'm missing

Been trying to get Ridgeway's for a few days now

[lavish blade]

Sometimes I wish I didnt skip the world tiers. Story's messed up now

[inland moat]

start a new char and run through it properly?

you can have multiple chars

[lavish blade]

If i start a new char ,i will continue or start fresh???

[narrow kraken]

Fresh

You can have multiple characters with different progressions if that's what you're asking

[low knot]

Can anybody please help me with a mission, I literally don’t know how to start it, there’s nobody to matchmake with.

😭😭

Is there a way to start it solo…?😭

[narrow kraken]

Which one?

[low knot]

The DCD Headquarters

[narrow kraken]

Did you reset it in the mission settings?

[low knot]

Where do I find out how to do that if you don’t mind me asking?

[narrow kraken]

When you have the mission selected on the map, one of the options below changes to open a menu where you can select difficulty and directives; selecting a difficulty will reset the mission and you'll be able yo enter it solo

[low knot]

I only have one option

[narrow kraken]

Hm, maybe someone else knows it better then. I take it you're still leveling?

[low knot]

I indeed am. Level 18 😭

[narrow kraken]

Could be related to that. Have you done the mission in story mode already?

[low knot]

I have not

[narrow kraken]

Does it show any level requirements?

[low knot]

Yeah, it says level 18

The difficulty is story

And then underneath is a skill unlock and a campus settlement upgrade

[scarlet lion]

what does hazard protection exactly protect me from??

[true siren]

status effects

[scarlet lion]

oh, i thought it'd be more complicated lol. thank you

[inland moat]

Apparantly its an old display bug. I also have it, as does a clan mate of mine. Didn't appear until after we got past level 40 and started on the SHD levels

And its on all platforms

[tame mesa]

does +explosive dmg also affect skills like seeker mine or just grenades?

[narrow matrix]

Works for all explosives

Skills and grenades

Not sure about red kerosine tanks tho those usually apply bleed

[quaint wind]

what brand is the sacrifice?

[true siren]

providence

[vivid vapor]

Anyone have a Loc for the Snithc? can't find him at my regular spots

[tacit wasp]

Hey so i have everything ready for regulus but i only need police 686 magnum replica but dont have the blueprint is there some fast way to get this blueprint or am i stuck to doing control points and hoping for good RNG?

[tulip fiber]

RNG

[tacit wasp]

Ok thanks

[inner tendon]

There are approximately 42 possible spawn locations for the Snitch, I'd just keep checking.
for helping hand: https://division2map.com/

[open maple]

looking at the item spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice what does LZ mean for the loot drops?

[bronze berry]

LZ = Light Zone = Everything that's not Dark Zone (so all PvE areas)

[open maple]

oh ok

thanks

[bronze berry]

[old scarab]

Hi, i am new in this game i just hit lvl 40 and i want to get some advices for a build or what missions i should grind, what items i should try to get and all that kind of stuff please

[bronze berry]

#ask-td2-community message

[old scarab]

Oh, thank you very much

[umbral lantern]

why cant i spawn the hunter again, i beated them but i want to fight them again

[true siren]

you cant

[umbral lantern]

oh ok

[nimble spruce]

Just run into the tent past the mission marker, climb over the ambulance and continue forward, it'll start.

[lavish blade]

Which attachments increases the round on 7.62 ??

[grand nebula]

762 extended mag

[foggy needle]

have to be more specific, what weapon and what attachments do you want?

[lavish blade]

Akm and fal. Any 7.62 ammo round increase

What does this Magnet help with?

[foggy needle]

The what?

[lavish blade]

Hah nothing. Its the reward for polarity. Just found out its just a medal. 😅

[foggy needle]

ah, that event rewards items too. check out the event page in game

[tame mesa]

what talent is best for smg?

im using vector

[fallow inlet]

Afternoon AZ, Isabel, Aspect

[prisma whale]

It helps with the left hand rule

[prisma whale]

If it’s a vector, killer is good, so is fast hands.

[dusk vortex]

Pick between damage or weapon handling talent

What skyfir said and to add: outsider, measured and strained (last 2 if you're feeling wack)

[lyric crypt]

Hey guys is division 2 cross gen for xbox? Like being able to play with people on the old gen aswell?

[inner tendon]

You've asked already, no need to spam channels.

[glossy plover]

How do I get vile?

[inner tendon]

Same as 90% of loot in div2:
Targeted Loot: [Mask] +Directives, Challenging or above.
(or for a limited time during this Season, reach Rank 90).

[dusk vortex]

It's this season's track reward

[glossy plover]

Ah, makes sense

[lyric crypt]

May i recieve an answer please?

And sorry i didnt mean to

[mild shoal]

Finally made it through WT5 and NYC and have reached end-game ( :prayge: )... seeing all the season stuff, it's a bit overwhelming. Are the first/second stage manhunt targets still available to complete? And if so, what's the benefit of doing them while they're the "live" target?

[narrow matrix]

I’ve used strained, unwavering, and killer

Use the vector as a cover shoot weapon with strained and unwavering and its perfect for taking out tanks imo

With unwavering, you can get 3 mags out if start shooting as soon as you swap

[inner tendon]

As much as I love my Vector, it's absolutely awful at any kinda range.
I wouldn't recommend it for taking out any target beyond the Opti.Range.

[narrow matrix]

I find it to be the perfect weapon when it comes to defense, rushers and tanks don’t stand a chance

You’re right tho they have to be relatively close

If you try out on unwavering on the vector, here’s how I use it, first mag goes to the weak point if they have armor plating, second straight into the chest or head

Same with strained

[inner tendon]

I've used every single talent combo on the Vector, but not bad general advice. :p

[narrow matrix]

So basically the way the season works is every 3rd week I believe there will be a new target. A week after the target is unlocked there will be a league event which consists of time trials which you have to speed run cos some have short timers and long missions. Doing these leagues reward you with medals that earn you rewards. All targets are available till the end of the season. each target has some sort of tie to each faction and so their missions will be certain missions. You have to do a bunch of bounties, missions and control points basically clearing the entire map in NYC and DC to reach the primary target

Ignore the season itself, just level up and make sure you have room in your inventory both for caches and rewards from the season

Once you have a build going you can focus on opening stuff and figuring out how they all work

Your watch is gonna be the most annoying thing to work on

TLDR if you do the target during their week then you get extra stuff

[mild shoal]

Right on, seems like the only thing I've really missed on are the global events. Sounds like I can still do the targets, though, so that's good. New target tomorrow, it looked like from what I could tell. Is the $10 for the pay-track worth it? Seems like lots of caches, aesthetic stuff.

[narrow matrix]

The season pass?

I’d wait till the end of your season to buy it basically when you are season level 100

It’s extra stuff as an incentive, the stuff from the season itself are great on their own

[mild shoal]

true, that's a good point... why pay for it now when i doubt i even hit the end, since i'm just starting

thanks Arrow, always helpful

[narrow matrix]

No problem

[copper oak]

Am wondering of one thing after late night farm

Given that most of player's arsenal is available to NPC, why we never got our grabby hands on Bow types, like stuff those faction-less enemies are using?

[slender marlin]

I have the same problem with my CMMG, I feel like I'd have to stand right in front of the enemies to actually hit them 😭

Also, it just might be my garbage aim

That reminds me, what's a good talent on the CMMG?

[foggy needle]

i mean its an smg, you want to be in CQB with enemies Just like shottys.

[slender marlin]

I currently have strained, but I feel like I have to reload before I get a lot more damage

[foggy needle]

depends on your build, but fast hands imho for a dps build.

[narrow matrix]

When i first got the grudge from keener it was god rolled, but it’s accuracy sucked, even at close range (from my use)

[foggy needle]

CMMG is one of the best smgs in the game 😛

[narrow kraken]

Is there a bug or something with the Pistolero directive where you can get your ammo back?

[foggy needle]

you mean were you CANT get your ammo back? thats how it works, from ammo box at least/ start with zero ammo

[nimble spruce]

with pistolero you only get ammo drops when killing with sidearm, and only when you would normally get random ammo drops (which is to say, only when your ammo is extra low, and only for equipped weapons)

one of my least favourite directives, it must be said

[foggy needle]

gunner makes it much easier, too

[nimble spruce]

one of the reasons I hate it: pretty much forces you to use gunner (and even then, if you're running AR/SMG build gunner regen likely won't be fast enough)

my default sniper build gets ammo regen from sharpshooter, but it's so damn slow to get the first bit (20s in cover or so) that it's really annoying to start out with. Then that's repeated every time you go to a safehouse or start a mission or finish a mission

someone calls for backup and you jump into their game and have no ammo, like what kind of help can you offer?

[narrow matrix]

Gunner regens all ammo I think for all weapons... I usually just switch to LMG and shotgun when AR /SMG runs out

[narrow kraken]

Idk I was referring to some trick people were using to get half/all their ammo back

Someone was doing it in my group last night although they wouldn't explain what they were doing

[narrow matrix]

If someone leaves while there’s a rogue agent encounter in open world but you haven’t found the rogues yet, does that disable the rogue encounter

Just had it happen, the music stopped playing

[nimble spruce]

I know they go poof if a player gets killed, so maybe it's the same thing

how rare is getting two exotics from 1 mission run?

[nimble spruce]

it's happened to me at least once that I noticed

ran Wall Street with LMG target loot and the Dragov dropped a bullet king while the 'mission complete' rewards gave me a pestilence

[dusk vortex]

Hey boss drop and target loot exist

[wind swallow]

i know but how rare is that outcome
like what % chance for a exotic roll * 2 or something?

or % chance for a exotic roll / 2

[narrow matrix]

I’ve gotten exotics from completing missions at the end, is there a reason for that?

Like when you receive “mission completed here are your activity stats”

[grand nebula]

its not very rare

especially since one of them is acosta

[tired pagoda]

im not getting my seasonal rewards, anyone else with that problem?

[narrow matrix]

is your inventory full

[tired pagoda]

nope not at all 🙂

[narrow matrix]

check your stash then

[tired pagoda]

its empty lol

[narrow matrix]

the mailbox ?

[tired pagoda]

nothing 🙂

im sure its a bug

[narrow matrix]

you could always send a ticket to ubisoft

[scarlet lion]

when running the special ammo directive, what type of ammo does each faction use.

[open maple]

hyenas the uhh one status effect that confuses you true sons bleed, outcast fire and black tusk disrupt

[scarlet lion]

ah ok, thank you

[prisma whale]

Interesting Fact - if you have OD rounds loaded into your weapon, you can reload to full even with the Ammo Hoarders active and not spend actual ammunition.

[dusk vortex]

BTSU disrupts, Hyena confuses, True Sons bleeds, Outcast burns, the mute sewer dweller poisons, cleaners and rikers are same as outcast and true sons in that order

[scarlet lion]

damn very interesting, thanks!

[narrow kraken]

That special ammo do be special

[fossil flicker]

so i have my specialist now and im doing the project that goes with it but while i was with my buddy (hasnt beat the game yet) and i wasnt completing anything on the project ehrn i knew i was doing what i was asked for it. do i have to be on my own or be in an endgame lobby to complete anything on the specialist project?

[narrow matrix]

Preferably your lobby

The challenges need to be done on normal or higher / some hard or challenging.

If you’re talking about spec points you can do them wherever

[umbral lantern]

i just bought the nyc dlc but i cant see the season pass

[true siren]

gotta finish the dlc

[umbral lantern]

oh ok thanks!

[stable flax]

afternoon, is it possible to deconstruct multiple items at once?

[narrow matrix]

Yes

Mark the items you want to deconstruct as junk

Then deconstruct junk

[stable flax]

oh wonderful, this will make things faster

thanks a lot

[stable crescent]

solo vs 4 man only changes enemy stats right? doesnt change how many Yellows there will be?

[dusk vortex]

HP + armor yes

Latter is if you get higher in summit

[stable flax]

is there a specific place/zone where i can find elite true sons?

[dusk vortex]

In true sons area?

Control points

[stable flax]

need to neutralize 3 elites

dunno where to look for them

[scarlet lion]

Bounties maybe

[dusk vortex]

If you're lucky look for elite supply convoy

Bounties too yeah

[stable flax]

oki, thanks a lot

[dusk vortex]

Bounties are easier if you have some lol, also control points have at least 2 elites in them

[stable flax]

yeah, have some bounties. haven't touched them yet

just got to lvl 30

[languid eagle]

well if you go CP4 then its named

[dusk vortex]

I said at least lol

You forgot the wave spawns

[open maple]

yep 2nd wave will almost all be elites

and dont forget the reinforcements

[lavish blade]

Which alert level gives you better chances of getting good blueprints. ?

[inner tendon]

@lavish blade There are a limited number of total blueprints, so both pull from the same pool.
tl;dr neither. Although CP4 has Named enemies, so higher chance for better physical loot.

[lavish blade]

Owkay. So i generally do in cp3 . I tried doing in 4 ended up getting a blueprint thats not even locked.
So devastated i thought there is some sppecification

Cp 4 was some heavy shit.

[copper oak]

Meh

[lavish blade]

I mean for 28 shd solo

[languid eagle]

Not bad agent

[copper oak]

And I mean ppl out here completely missed my question about weapon types

[languid eagle]

You should try looking for some DPS builds, something like the Aces N 8s Mantis HeadHunter build for your inner marksman

[languid eagle]

What’s your question soldier

[copper oak]

If majority of players weapons pool is shared with NPC, will there ever Bow weapons, like those faction-less enemies have (those with trash bin shields and bows)

Some late night gaming thoughts when I was farming for specific gun perks in Summit

@languid eagle

[true siren]

i really doubt there will ever be bows as main weapons in div2, maybe in future installments

[languid eagle]

Most likely not in Div 2

Maybe in Div Heartland, TBH

I think it might try to be something like a division escape from Tarkov or something

I dunno

[copper oak]

and Im VERY much averted from EFT-concept stuff after playing a bit of Cycle, not only tutorial is awfully misleading, but while stated as pvpve -- its essentially PVP game with pve component being more like a sort "map hazard" than anything else

[quaint wind]

there is a project that gives Ridgeway’s pride: hunter
what is it?

[true siren]

are you asking the name of the project or how to get it

[inland moat]

I got that project after getting floor 100 on summit the other day

[true siren]

it is from floor 100 summit, yes

[quaint wind]

well it is in projects as a reward idk what the project itself gives

[languid eagle]

blueprint for ridgeways

[quaint wind]

whats that

[languid eagle]

Ridgeways Pride, exotic chest

[quaint wind]

do i need to get other parts if i get the blueprint?

[languid eagle]

You get 5 parts

[scarlet lion]

you need a zero f's chest and i petrov vest

[languid eagle]

The exotic parts is from Summit 1-20,21-40, etc

[umbral lantern]

now i can get every item in game cuz i got nyc right? ex coyote mask and momento

[prisma whale]

Yeah, once you start into NYC, you can obtain everything.

[nimble spruce]

excluding pre-order exclusives

[umbral lantern]

And will cross play be coming soon?

[tulip fiber]

Not for Div 2

[umbral lantern]

Oh rip

[umbral lantern]

what can i get out of ivory keys

since i need 1 more key

idk if its worth

[delicate cliff]

you'll be able to open the weapon crate in the BOO

[dusk vortex]

Black paint

Oh wait that's a different one

[umbral lantern]

oh ok, is it worth it tho?

[delicate cliff]

chest in the boo will give you the shield splinterer and white gear dye, chest in NY gives hunter-killer chest and black gear dye

[umbral lantern]

oh ok

[delicate cliff]

or was it white/black weapon skin? can't remember anymore

something like that

[umbral lantern]

i just got a keener legacy cache but cant find it in caches where do i find it

[nimble spruce]

season track reward prob

oh, you mean you received one but it isn't in your inventory? Maybe the stash

[umbral lantern]

oh ok thanks!

[nimble spruce]

if your cache inventory is full, new ones go to the mailbox in your stash

[umbral lantern]

it isnt full

it isnt in the stash

[umbral lantern]

is it a glitch?

[nimble spruce]

most likely it was in your inventory but you missed it - probably called 'legacy season cache' instead

[umbral lantern]

i cant find anything in the cache area

[nimble spruce]

where you normally go to open field proficiency caches?

[umbral lantern]

caches

[nimble spruce]

if it's not there and you definitely didn't already open it, then I have no idea, sorry

[umbral lantern]

oh ok thanks tho

oh it says i need keys online

[nimble spruce]

nah, that's a different kind of cache, the apparel caches

[narrow kraken]

is there a double XP event going on?

I'm getting 1.1M XP per mission instead of 550 as it says on the mission info

[fossil flicker]

I’m not sure if it’s spec points but it’s not “challenges” either.

[narrow matrix]

Field research objective?

[ionic dome]

how to unlock dc south vendor?

[dusk vortex]

shouldn't it be there already?

[ionic dome]

no interaction to the npc

will i see any indicator of it in the map?

[dusk vortex]

my best/worst assumption is that you haven't done the DZ recon mission on that area

[narrow matrix]

When your total weapon damage increases does that increase crit damage

Or weapon damage for a specific weapon

[narrow kraken]

Hey I'm new here. If I want to do a specific build where do I go to hunt the specific gear? How much grinding would be involved in that?

[ionic mica]

Targeted loot

Alternatively, summit grind

[narrow kraken]

Summit grind with targeted loot, even

[umbral lantern]

i got a mission in the summit to get 35 kills using a skill which one do i use?

[ionic mica]

HW + Seeker spam

That or hive

Turrets

[umbral lantern]

oke thanks!

[tame mesa]

is scorpio good for close pvp?

[narrow matrix]

I’d say no since most people spam smgs and for the Scorpio to be used effectively you need to land most of the pellets

[foggy needle]

Yes also chd because it's a multiplier.

[languid eagle]

coolio

So, once you finish the FB and the FI projects, you get a new project for the regulus from Iyana?

The blueprint lady?

[prisma whale]

Yeah, though I believe you get that project automatically rather than from Enaya

[inner tendon]

@dusky garnet You've already posted in the right place, just give it time.

[narrow kraken]

Is it true that Legendary difficulty scales to 4 players even if you're solo? I heard this ages ago and wanted to confirm

[foggy needle]

yes for the amount of enemies (fixed at 4 players). the NPC life still scales to player group size.

[narrow kraken]

So they're easier to kill solo but there's as many as there would be for 4 players

[foggy needle]

yes

[cyan cargo]

So I just recently started doing the dark zone. I want to buy the deathgrips from the vendor. I have heard that sometimes agents go rogue and mess around with players

So I was curious if it gives like a ping on my map if a rogue agent is nearby

Also what are some good ways to farm DZ credits fast?

[foggy needle]

Dark zone is pvp, so agents going rogue varies, Can be all the time.

For DZ credits, no real fast way besides scrapping the dz items and extracting the DZ credits

[narrow matrix]

It will tell you a nearby agent has gone rogue, it will also show on the map where they are if they go rogue but I find it to be unreliable since there’s multiple going rogue at the same time. The best way to detect if a rogue agent is near you is the scanner pulse. I’d recommend pairing it with a nightwatcher mask. As for DZ credits you want to deconstruct everything you can and extract it. If you extract with other items you’ll get more dark zone xp. The best way to go about is deconstruct to farm a set amount, extract

[south bloom]

u need 153 for the deathgrips

[foggy needle]

Pvp tends to be calmer in the sucky DZ target loot zones fyi.

[south bloom]

pvp is never calm lmao

people go so far as to getting manhunts

it’s ridiculous

[foggy needle]

I said "calmer" which is true

[south bloom]

o

[foggy needle]

Ie if DZ target loot is rigger, that DZ zone is calm lol

[narrow matrix]

I’ve heard it’s easier to farm them on a level 30 character but I tried this and since some landmarks are heroic it was very difficult to clear. You’ll have to pick and choose. The same meta available for level 40 is available at level 30 as well so hear that in mind. You have less offense against players who deliberately went out of their way to get godrolls at level 30

[south bloom]

lol

[south bloom]

u make a fair point

[narrow matrix]

Also people make it a habit to run up on you while you’re clearing a landmark cause it shows you’re there or a DZ drop and just ambush you, they’ll wait for you to pop your shield out first to disable your vanguard or in sync

So that’s another way to tell if there’s rogues, just go rogue first and commit war crimes on those meanies

[dusk vortex]

Mura and smg will be very contested imo

Also pistol too since orbit

[foggy needle]

TLDR: if you want to farm DZ credits, just farm a bad target loot DZ zone 😄

[nimble spruce]

You can also find little black resource boxes in the dz which will give you dz credits without having to extract them (so no risk of losing them if you get killed). You can only get these in the non-invaded dz though. I believe there are maps online showing where all the boxes are.

[narrow kraken]

I always get triggered when I cut the rope and it's just 8 stacks of 25 DZ resources like wtf

[languid eagle]

Which YT channel should I look for for an in depth raid guide?

[narrow matrix]

Gcrock

Or there’s abrax gaming

[languid eagle]

Ok good, that’s what I was using

[static jacinth]

Is the dark zone good for grinding

[inner tendon]

@languid eagle Be somewhat weary using GC rock's raid guides. They're fairly out of date.

[narrow kraken]

No DZ is not worth for grinding

[inner tendon]

@static jacinth The Landmarks are not half bad for exp, but outside of that you're better off staying out of the DZ unless you want something DZ specific.

[static jacinth]

Ok

[languid eagle]

What about the iron horse one?

Ah. Nvm. That was June 2020

Nearly 2 years old

[inner tendon]

I'm sure the basic instructions on how to finish it are fine, but the strategies of what to do, stuff like that are going to be quite rough.

[narrow matrix]

They’re fine not much has changed to be honest with you, just watch them for the details cause most people who take you through raids just give you a basic description of what the position is meant for

Like speedrun basic

[inner tendon]

That's basically what I said, but I appreciate the echo :p

[narrow kraken]

I enjoy my daily build youtuber content 😩 👌

[shy shell]

I would also say that it varies and strats need to change based on the team. Some strats work great when everyone knows what to do but not if you are bringing new people in. Just figure out the mechanics and figure out what works best for your team.

[languid eagle]

Ah ok

so just look at the guide, and pay attention to what raid lead does

[delicate cliff]

Whatever you do, always be upfront about not knowing something or playing on a certain position. People will usually gladly help and explain. What people don't like is wiping because someone didn't ask what they need to do in a certain position.

[languid eagle]

Yeah

[quiet fossil]

Hi guys. I am searching for two weapon skins: A highend one, its called "Torbernite", and a superior one, called "Caldera". Can somebody give me a hint where to find these weapon skins? I have the gut feeling that both were special skins during an event/season I had missed.

[covert marsh]

torbernite's still available; it's, i think, lv. 95 on the premium season pass for this current season (it's either 90, 95, or 100)
caldera's from one of the specialization field research trees (might be a premium reward)

i'd check in div2 but i'm busy grinding away for global event credits in div1 at the moment

[inland moat]

@quiet fossil ^^^^ Thats your answer. Basically, available for real money.

[clear ice]

Hi! So I got to level 30 and each level up is just providing field caches now. Do I need to start WONY in order to start leveling to 40?

I haven't beaten the main campaign yet

[narrow matrix]

yes

[narrow matrix]

when you clear all the strongholds, you'll reach world tier 1-5 (basically 2nd campaign before you make your way to new york

you have the option to skip all that

[clear ice]

Got it, so complete strongholds -> unlock world tiers, which then unlocks level 31-40

[narrow matrix]

you have to buy warlords of new york expansion which is set after the world tiers to unlock levels 31-40

[scarlet lion]

Pretty much a must have, so I’d consider digging deep into those pockets.

[quiet fossil]

atleastonegoose, thanks for the answer regarding my search for the weapon skins!

[ionic mica]

There's a sale going on at Upay Ubisoft Connect

Idk if Division 2 is on sale on Xbox

WoNY is -70% off or -85% with a discount code on PC

[old scarab]

Hi, anyone know if there is another guide like this one? https://docs.google.com/document/d/1v9yD4upTZ4cHP4f6FjU24IN0_diMxDPSX6NZJicXgqQ/edit

Or can you guys send a link to a site with builds for begginers?

[languid eagle]

Full Meta Jacket will be your best DPS bet

[dusk vortex]

it's up there imo lmao

@old scarab

can't mention if you edit your message bruv

[nimble spruce]

Well that's just annoying

There's a spreadsheet linked in the #td2-build-advice pins with a number of good builds @old scarab

[sage light]

Hey everyone, I'm just getting back into The Division 2 after like a year and a half lol What should I be focusing on? Should I look for a build and start working on that or are there other things I should be doing?

[inner tendon]

First thing: do you own the WONY dlc?

[sage light]

I do

[dusk vortex]

i mean if you left your account with a meta dps build you're not missing out much

just rotating seasons 's all

to answer your question? probably just finish the season track for the rewards

[sage light]

I've never made a meta build, never done any raids or strongholds or any of that like super end game activites lol 😅

[dusk vortex]

yeah in that case defo need to farm some builds

[sage light]

Oh okay, will get to that then. I'm assuming I can just google any builds that seem interesting to me or are there specific builds I should focus on?

[inner tendon]

Actually you don't even need to search for them, more builds than you could need are right here, pinned over in
#td2-build-advice > 📌 > spreadsheet > builds.

[sage light]

Oh okay cool, thanks!

[dusk vortex]

happy to help fellow agent

[bright plover]

Can Grupo knees/gloves drop with skill damage and haste?

[dusk vortex]

everything is possible

[bright plover]

Alright, must just be a tough drop

[dusk vortex]

except exotics those are preset attributes

[bright plover]

All I want is my 15% explosive damage and a skill tier lol

[tulip fiber]

They are tough. Worth it though

[dusk vortex]

for demo build?

[bright plover]

Ya

[dusk vortex]

ok you're on track lol

[bright plover]

Yeah, I think I'm using Hana or something in the meantime, I'd have to look.

[dusk vortex]

use hana alongside

i mean either 2 hana or hana + wyvern is the same thing anyway lol

[bright plover]

Currently, 2 china, 2 hana, 1 wyvern, and waveform

[dusk vortex]

for demo turret?

[bright plover]

Artillery and seeker

[dusk vortex]

yeah you should look for the groupo simply put

[hallow jewel]

So Tuesday i had the double XP but yesterday it went away... what the hell!

Is that a glitch/bug?

[dusk vortex]

it's only for 15 levels gained bruv

when new target is live you get double xp for 15 levels only

[hallow jewel]

Oooh. Thanks! Also, that's weaksauce!

[dusk vortex]

dw the season track has a ton of XP boosts, namely leagues

[hallow jewel]

Yeah I'm shd 286 now but wanna get to 1000 asap

[bright plover]

@dusk vortex ok, cool

[dusk vortex]

i do have a suggestion if you don't mind losing skill haste, swap one of your china to wyvern gear

less skill haste but slightly beefier bleed tick

[bright plover]

I happened to have thought of that was well.

Thinking mask

Cuz backpack has the perfect shock and awe, but unsure if that's what I'm gonna change

Think should roll haste or status effects on the mask?

[dusk vortex]

since demo turret is rather fast CD I say just put haste on mods?

[bright plover]

That's what mods I'm using yes

[dusk vortex]

you might wanna change your bag to force multiplier (aka hana u named) if you want better damage

[bright plover]

I have one, .1% from max

That's works, I suppose

[dusk vortex]

oh it will work, if you shoot alongside

[tulip fiber]

I’d personally wouldn’t use the waveform, just because you’d have to time the explosive damage to get the max out of it

[dusk vortex]

thank you for saying it

[bright plover]

I don't mind changing it

[dusk vortex]

but tbh it's what you currently have so I can't say anything lol

[bright plover]

Personally I don't like it

[dusk vortex]

2 hana 1 china 1 wyvern and 2 groupo is your target

[tulip fiber]

It’s good for a drone/turret skill build though

[bright plover]

So, now I gotta look at what to use as filler til groupo

[dusk vortex]

wack idea: improvised gear

in place of the waveform

[hallow jewel]

What does status effects % actually do? Just duration?

[bright plover]

I have a Grupo holster with skill damage and status effects lol

[dusk vortex]

tick damage and duration

[hallow jewel]

Seems like Vile is critical to any status effects build then

[dusk vortex]

either that or golan mask

if you like throwing nades go ahead with vile, if you want longer duration go ahead with golan mask

[hallow jewel]

I use Acosta's for my skill damage build and my backup weapon is future perfection and I try to alternate them to have Overcharge as much as possible

But idk if this is even worth it

[dusk vortex]

acosta's with survivalist grenade is interesting combo tbf

[hallow jewel]

Lol I actually made a grenade build that is interesting but has extremely limited use

Best for Summit challenges only

[dusk vortex]

made a build myself specifically for heavies, warhounds, tanks, and turrets alike

[hallow jewel]

Mad bomber vest

I love the build variability in this game

My grenade build also has Tip of the Spear and demolitionist

I just wish that signature ammo regen was faster

[languid eagle]

we don’t want people maining the minigun

[foggy needle]

Tip of the Spear spec weapon build can be good tbh, (non HH version) requires TOTS backpack + GC and best with Demo, Xbow or Tech.

[hallow jewel]

Ez fix, just make the minigun regen lower!

[languid eagle]

True

But, don’t give massive any ideas 😅

[inner tendon]

It's faster the better you are at generating it.
So in the miniguns case, multi-kills with no reloads. Aim for the upper body/head.

[languid eagle]

Yeah

[inner tendon]

Basically just good advice for everything except weakpoints/MMRs.

[foggy needle]

biggest issue with mini gun is being stuck outside of cover >.< which makes enemies melt you faster then you melt them (even with its defense proc) on heroic at least.

[inner tendon]

Let's be real, there's very little reason outside of a specific Gearset to ever really touch the Spec Weapons in their current form.
I've heard rumours of them tweaking them in the Update, guess we'll wait and see.

[foggy needle]

Not exactly, Flamer and xbow are always worth using, Demo and Tech if you have GC, and Sniper if HH build.
---Flamer for the oh shit control.
---Xbow 1 hits chunga and robots plates.
---Demo/ tech with GC is pretty decent aoe (even better with Tots backpack)
---Sniper hh build to start ramp.
---Gunner is meh sadly.

[foggy needle]

also FYI it was already confirmed they are tweaking spec weapons in new update, though no exact details as to how.

[inner tendon]

Knowing MSV, I'mma wait for the actual release before I plan on anything.

[inner tendon]

Maybe it's just me, but I really dislike relying on the Spec Weapons. There are so many factors to using them it just feels better for me to use the actual guns I've brought along.

[foggy needle]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

you dont rely on them, but they can be nice bonuses (as above)

[inner tendon]

Just personal preference, I'm willing to accept that it's the wrong way to play.
Like using p/Clutch on a Backfire.

[narrow matrix]

Spec weapons I feel are underrated

[foggy needle]

some yes (read above)

[narrow matrix]

Gunner is cool for door clears or when enemies are pushing

[foggy needle]

without GC or certain build: gunner, demo, tech and sniper are all 💩 .

gunner is fun yes but worse then normal weapon tbh.

[narrow matrix]

I love it for taking down the maurader

[foggy needle]

Gunner can deal great damage with GC BUT horrible idea since gunner keeps you out of cover which then GC kills you.

[narrow matrix]

GC?

[inner tendon]

Glass Cannon.

[narrow matrix]

Main issue I have with it is the recoil

[inner tendon]

On PC that's solved by pushing down on the mouse slightly.
Unsure if the same on a PS.

[narrow matrix]

You can push down on the right analog stick to keep it stable but it tends to kick back up if don’t hold it with enough pressure

[inner tendon]

yeah, desks tend not to push back on the mouse :p

[narrow matrix]

Must be nice 😂

[inner tendon]

Tip: if your desk pushes back on your mouse, that may be a cat.

[narrow matrix]

If you have vibration on for the controller it makes it worse cause the controller wants to jump out of your hand at that point lol

[inner tendon]

The last console I had was a PS3 when it went slim, I'm running on fumes here as far as console knowledge goes.

[narrow matrix]

Interestingly they release a slim version before a new model, the new model is pretty much the slim and the previous model stacked on top of each other haha

[inner tendon]

I started out with the one that sounded like a jet-engine exploding in a metal bucket, so it was an improvement.
but back to div2!

Maybe try turning off vibration for a while, see if that helps.
Alternatively, a different grip-style can make a change, the sideways one works for a lot of people.

[languid eagle]

What if your dog acts like a cat?

[narrow kraken]

EP firewall is scary

Gunner is pretty interesting with blue TOTS and Tardigrade

[inner tendon]

Advice only applicable to cat, dog can easily be moved with scritches.

[languid eagle]

Absolutely not, my dog soaks those up like using a hose on a sponge.

Ella es perezosa…

[old scarab]

Sup, where can i farm for Providence Modular Holster and Petrov Drop Leg Holster, for the Dodge City Gunsliger's Holster

[languid eagle]

Targeted loot for providence and petrov

[inner tendon]

Same place as 90% of loot in div2:
Targeted Loot: [brand] +Directives, Challenging or above.

[languid eagle]

Or targeted loot for holster

And pray.

Pray hard.

[old scarab]

XD

Ok thanks

[languid eagle]

Like, Foxes Prayer pray.

The pun wars continue.

[inner tendon]

Holsters TL aren't as good a choice, since the loot pool for them alone is massive.
Shouldn't take you more than an hour or so to get both, less if you add more Directives via Summit.

[nimble spruce]

Dodge city needs blueprint from the project before it will drop, though

[old scarab]

I got it already

i only need that 2 holsters to finish it

[nimble spruce]

Ah, I misread

[languid eagle]

So farm petrov and providence target loot and pray like a fox

Maybe you’ll get foxes prayer too

[old scarab]

i need foxec prayers too

Well thnak you guys

[inner tendon]

Since someone else is going to, I might as well.
"Fox's Prayer" refers to the prayer of a solider in a foxhole, hence the bonus to dtooc.

The more you know 🌈

[old scarab]

So, summit is best way to get those, i got it right

?

[languid eagle]

Yeah

Pump those directives up too

[inner tendon]

Summit allows you to add up to 10 Directives and Target your loot of choice.
If you're trying to farm something with any% rolls, go for Summit.

[languid eagle]

Usually when I run summit, I run Fog of War, Special Ammo, Hard to Earn, and Ragers

Sometimes I put up Pistolreno if I feel like shielding

[inner tendon]

Try getting it to at least 6 Directives. Using a red DPS build basically makes the two skill Directives freebies.

[languid eagle]

I guess that also explains why its in Overlord, because of the extra damage with rifles too

[languid eagle]

Yeah

[inner tendon]

I do love the Named Items backgrounds in div2.
almost all have a bit of a fun relation to their brand too.

[foggy needle]

but technically being in a foxhole counts as cover 😛

[inner tendon]

Any what do you hit most while in a fox-hole? 😉

[languid eagle]

I guess Nightwatcher makes sense

[foggy needle]

ive never been in a fox hole, so i dont know 🤣

[inner tendon]

people running at you in ww1 mostly lol

Firm Handshake has a rather ominous name nowadays, thinking about it.

[foggy needle]

heheh

[languid eagle]

All I remember is soldiers trying to quickscope eachother

world at war flashbacks

I remember at the start of the pandemic I was tweeting “when will the president activate directive 51?”

[hexed fable]

Anyone else having the issue where when you go to launch division 2 the easy anticheat popup loads like normal then after a second it dissapears and the game doesn't launch? I've been trying to self troubleshoot for the past 2 hours and no luck. I've updated graphic drivers, repaired anti cheat, set the processes to launch with admin control, reinstalled the game, updated windows, turned off anti virus, disabled firewall just grasping at straws rebooted 100 times and still got no luck.

Im running 48gb of ram with an rtx 2060 and Ryzen 9 3900x my pc is more then capable of running the game without receiving a dent in resources and this problem has just now occurred recently so Im here to see if anyone else has encountered the issue and got it fixed

[narrow kraken]

what does task manager show

I've had the issue you're describing happen only once and just waited like 5 mins

also this is probably a question for #unofficial-troubleshooting

Oh you posted there mb

[hexed fable]

I just figured it out so I had this software conflicting with ubisoft connect somehow wasn't allowing me to connect to the online services and I guess that stopped the game from launching. I got lucky and followed a dll error popup and see that it was related to a software from my computer so I deleted it and restarted pc and all was good

[tiny salmon]

anybody know what happened to the "I just reached level 40 and this is scary guide"?

[karmic harbor]

so how much has the game changed in general ever since like Dec 2020? my last login was about a year ago and I'm looking at builds (dps exclusively lol) on yt an noticed striker is being used more, which either wasn't popular when I was playing or I missed a lot
have there been balance changes? or has it stayed the same

[karmic harbor]

was this a video or something?

[tiny salmon]

it was a google doc

[karmic harbor]

oh

never heard of it, sorry :/

[tiny salmon]

i checked my google history and went back to it just now and it says it got removed

[narrow kraken]

Is there any SMG in the game that can make use of the Linked Laser Pointer (Technician)?

[dusk vortex]

vector 45

[clear ice]

Are the mods I put on my mask/backpack/vest protected from being dismantled when I dismantle the armor they're attached to? Or do I have to make sure to remove them first?

[dusk vortex]

mods will also be dismantled when you dismantle the gear

[clear ice]

Ah damn, no warning either?

[dusk vortex]

there should be iirc

could test it out by dismantling a unworthy gear with an unworthy mod lol

[clear ice]

I'm dumb I could have just tested that with a junk mod on a jumk armor

Yeah lol

[exotic lagoon]

there is a warning by default

[clear ice]

Yup just confirmed

[mellow pebble]

where can i find mounted gun for my gunner spec field 1

[dusk vortex]

CPs

there's one cp mear the white house area, top left corner

[mellow pebble]

toxic alley?

[dusk vortex]

that ain't toxic alley lmao

[mellow pebble]

oh the vault?

[dusk vortex]

yep

[mellow pebble]

ook ty~

[dusk vortex]

there's one in navy plaza too

also fallen cranes

[narrow matrix]

I think for this field research you can complete most of the objectives for that stage at roosevelt island

no point in splitting them up

[dusk vortex]

Let them do the easier ones first lol

[inner tendon]

oy

[mellow pebble]

Can I get exotic at normal summit lv10?

[true siren]

you have a chance to

[simple nexus]

Grand Washington hotel has the one in the main lobby after defeating saint you'll be right next to it with the enemies fown range from it

then there the Control points and the misison my bud Arrow mention

[untold drift]

New player here, anyone how to solve the 0% loading screen?

[prisma whale]

a quick google search net a forum post of someone with the same issue. Verify your game files from Ubi connect

See if that works.

Also, if you have any overlay software such as discord or Nvidia, keep them off for the time being.

[undone kayak]

hi 🙂 , if i play with someone low level than me, can i still do with him the mission and side/encounter mission that i already did ? (is it the same on TD1 ? )

[broken canyon]

Yes

[undone kayak]

ty ❤️

[untold drift]

OK, thanks

[scarlet lion]

they'll just spawn in the dz

[foggy needle]

@untold driftdont double post, answered in other channel.

👋

[quaint wind]

is there a way to increase the bleed from the ridgeways vest?

[foggy needle]

yes but way not worth it. its just a normal status effect, so things that boost that work.

[untold drift]

They didn't 🥲

So any advice or maps or video on how to find supply drop?

[loud saddle]

in the LZ?

[languid eagle]

In LZ, it will be a green symbol of a box and a parachute in a zone. In the DZ, they spawn around that Dark Zone, marked on your map with an orange box w/ a parachute.

Invaded DZs will have 5 named bosses on each supply drop, regular will have only 1 (I think)

5 named bosses is a lot, bring a friend

[foggy needle]

@untold drift https://division2map.com/ shows you .

What’s the best way to defeat keener on heroic 3 man group

Fog of war enabled

[delicate cliff]

scorpio and foam help a lot

[prisma whale]

After you destroy the rocket, have a group member be near the building keener jumps out of.. he won't jam your gear if he has to worry about an agent close by.

Where the drone pops up, open the shock ammo boxes for your pistols or some other low mag size weapon.

can just lock down and annihilate him.

[narrow kraken]

ok ok like uhhhh

What even justifies Percussive Maintenance to be a named backpack with a talent that increases skill damage with skill kills while on a brand with the first bonus being... outgoing repair?

Wyvern sounds perfect for it, given it has no named backpacks

[foggy needle]

nothing does. its just a dump design choice

[narrow kraken]

Still waiting for perfect Creeping Death 😔

Hell, we don't even have the justification of "too many nameds for one brand" because there's Cookbook and Hunter-killer for Golan, along with Gift and Sacrifice for Providence

Yeah Hunter-Killer would have gone better with something like Walker

I wish there was a perfect galvanize on a Gila backpack or something

Not that galvanize is particularly good for the purpose many use the other bonus armor talents for, buuuuut

[old scarab]

What targeted loot should i use in summit for farming fox prayers

and where can i farm eagle barel

[delicate cliff]

For Fox's, Overlord Armaments. And Eagle Bearer is raid-exclusive, so you have to play the Dark Hours raid to get a chance to pull it.

[old scarab]

Ok, thanks

[warm obsidian]

So, stupid question probably. Is it possible to search for a group to just roam around with, doing field research?

[scarlet lion]

You could check with the #lfg channels, there might be some people in there who want to do the same.

[narrow kraken]

It's not a stupid question if it helps you understand more than you previously did 👈

[narrow kraken]

Hey looking for group to run iron Horse. I don't care about your skill level as I'm not the best or a tryhard no where close. I do kinda suck. I'm just looking to kill out a trophy for 100% completion. Can run it on the easiest difficulty don't care. Dm if ya down to play.

I have posted in lfg raid LOTS no luck so now posting everywhere.

[narrow kraken]

When was the last time Grand Washington Hotel was invaded?

[thorn osprey]

does anyone know where cassie (gun runner) is right now?

nvm, am blind

[delicate cliff]

Been a while. Should be up with the next invasion, I think

[mild oriole]

you’re going to get banned, man

[narrow matrix]

This was a great suggestion thank you sir

[narrow matrix]

There was one slight malfunction, for some reason Keener still jammed skills

I was running drone killer

[simple nexus]

Honestly idk how i got lucky I was able to use my skills against keener and none got hack

[prisma whale]

My suggestion only stops the initial jam.. and also he doesn’t always panic so..

[south bloom]

what’s the best way to test if a build actually works

like testing it out i mean

[narrow matrix]

Heroic solo - try to complete the mission

[night pine]

any fenris farm places? since i can't see no missions with any increased chances

or backpacks

[foggy needle]

If it's not in the daily target loot, just do it in summit

[night pine]

oof

[ionic mica]

Optimist vs Ranger on bolt-action MMRs?

[narrow matrix]

Ranger is constant

Optimist requires you to lower your already low mag

[ionic mica]

Alright 🙂

[narrow kraken]

Is Emma Richards the only named NPC that has no voice lines? She's probably the most interacted NPC too 😂

I just realized after 1k+ hours that NPCs react to your emotes, so I've been running around settlements and safe houses doing the Haka in front of NPCs

[strange acorn]

Would someone be able to load up tidal basin for me? Trying to get the nemesis quest line started

[dusk vortex]

Ranger if you want to be furthest away, optimist if you're always mag-dumping

[slender marlin]

Can you optimize multiple stats on a single piece?

[delicate cliff]

Yeah. Optimize = all attributes, Recalibrate: 1 attribute/talent per piece

[narrow matrix]

If my friend who’s new to the game speed runs through the campaign and ignores projects and what not from safe houses will the be able to complete them at level 40

They’re not boosting, we’re speedrunning the campaign so they can get a feel for the story but not be stuck

[untold drift]

can we upgrade our gun or gear?

like upgrade its level?

[narrow matrix]

No you have to keep picking up as you level up

[untold drift]

so all those purple gears which is low level are basically useless in future??

[narrow matrix]

Yes

[untold drift]

what is the max level of this game?

[narrow kraken]

40

[narrow matrix]

It’s not available in world tier 1 for nemesis parts

It’s part of the main story

Nemesis comes in world tier 4 I think

Well world tier 5 you find the blueprint in WT4

[untold drift]

i see but why there people with 500, 1000 number beside their name?

what are those numbers stand for ?

[narrow matrix]

Commendation

In game trophies basically

[narrow kraken]

Doesn't he mean SHD levels?

[narrow matrix]

World tier

You clear tidal basin in that world tier

[narrow kraken]

Did we ever get any idea what's coming™️?

@narrow kraken You mean this? https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/wiki/thedivision2/roadmap#wiki_what_is_next_for_the_division_2.3F

I think the only new thing mentioned was the Intelligence Annex

[narrow matrix]

What level are u

Is that gear score

Or shd level

[narrow kraken]

It's just RNG whether it's invaded or not

[narrow matrix]

Oh then you have to wait for it to be invaded

[narrow kraken]

Yes and it hasn't been invaded for some time

So bad RNG

Well invasions are for everyone so it's not just you :^)

Really? Wasn't aware of that

[dusk vortex]

we never try that cuz you start the quest by beating tidal basin the 2nd time lol

which is at WT5 iirc?

[dusk vortex]

that's SHD lottery to ya

[narrow kraken]

Maybe Keener really wanted me to look at the wiki before dying

[untold drift]

Sad

[thorn osprey]

for foundry bulwark do i HAVE to do iron horse to get the vest/backpack? i hope i dont have too

[inner tendon]

Correct, the Backpack+Chest of Foundry Bulwark and Future Initiative are locked to Iron Horse Normal.

[thorn osprey]

damn

well thank you my good sir/madam/whatever

[inner tendon]

It's in the name, but you're welcome.

[quaint wind]

wait the 2 pieces are rlly locked in the raid?

[quiet portal]

I have been trying ever since I went on the hunt for all of the hunter masks in the game. I need some serious help getting the wraith hunter to spawn. Yes, I've tired just about everything you might suggest. I'm starting to think it's not possible to spawn him.

[tulip fiber]

https://youtu.be/o4gDszLbbz4

It is possible. I’ve gotten that one already. Try after 9pm game time.

[narrow matrix]

Yes

[quiet portal]

tried that and later. I've tired pretty much everything. Me solo salute and party doing it all in different ways all after shooting out the lights all behind the flag pole as well as different distances.

[tulip fiber]

Then are you positive it’s that one that you need? Try it on someone else’s game who doesn’t have it either. That’s all I got.

[mellow pebble]

hi all to farm exotic at summit, need more directive or dont use any directive?

[narrow kraken]

Doesn't matter

[rancid sphinx]

how to counter fullshield liberty players in darkzone. They are insta kill me with 1.5mil armour.

[quick mirage]

Does mission difficulty affect the chance of an item drop being exotic as I’m trying to farm coyote mask but can only solo hard missions?

[narrow kraken]

@rancid sphinx You sure they're running Liberty and not Regulus?

Because you can't one shot with Liberty

But you sure as hell can with Regulus 😂

[rancid sphinx]

S

[rancid sphinx]

He is using liberty

[ionic mica]

Hmm, might be useful for rifle DPS I guess

[dusk vortex]

No not for rifles lmao

[ionic mica]

Oh lol

[dusk vortex]

It's BIS for our clan's sniping build tbf

[ionic mica]

I do have a M44 with max attributes + Ranger

With my sniper build

[dusk vortex]

it's poggers

it's a choice really

[ionic mica]

3% WD per missing 10% would be 6% for the Classic M44?

As 1/5 is 20%

Or, Massive doing funny maths? 🤣

[dusk vortex]

we have our own number crunchers

it's been a long while since I use ranger tbh since I can't rely on being too far away from teammates

[quaint wind]

what should I do first when i enter hardcore

[ionic mica]

Don't die?

🤣

[dusk vortex]

don't die m*f-er

[quaint wind]

will try

[quaint wind]

doods i need to donate components for the exotic cache project how do i get them?

better question: is scorpio locked behind warlords?

[nimble spruce]

Components can be gained from the square green boxes you find at locations marked with a nut & bolt symbol

Scorpio is dlc only I'm afraid

[quaint wind]

so do i need to do wony to have it in the general pool or can I just do it before I even start wony

[open maple]

that or supply convoys

the normal ones not elite ones

[nimble spruce]

You just need to own WONY to have it in the pool, you don't have to be lvl 40

[quaint wind]

nice

[ionic mica]

I got mine out of an exotic cache hehe

[quiet portal]

It's 100% the last one I need and the only one that will not spawn. I have photos proving I don't have it yet. I'll have to check if it was only in my own session or also in other's. I'm starting to just give up on it. There my be a serious bug with him not spawning in people games. It's the last key i need to...😭

[fallow inlet]

Afternoon poly and kettle

[narrow matrix]

The ravenous, is the offensive primer similar to the pestilence

[tardy vector]

just wanna confirm something, when i go to optimize an attribute, does it draw from a stored stat like the recalibration does, or can i continue optimizing until its maxed?

[narrow kraken]

you can continue optimizing until its maxed

[ionic mica]

Hi

[stray dirge]

o/ I've got a question for ya'll do you guys still experience hanging/crashing in td2 activities?
Cause I just went and did something else than the summit and immediately boom went into this weird windowed mode and crashed
It always seems to happen when getting shot or picking up abilities.
I am playing on GFN maybe that has something to do with it or is the game just a bit unstable?

[stray dirge]

My guess is that most of you have this issue and there is no fix :p

[narrow matrix]

Some pc players have suggested disabling direct x 12

[stray dirge]

Aye I sadly tried all solutions that have been posted onlin. Well all of those I can try. And the game crashes just as much on dx11 if not even more. As on dx12

[narrow matrix]

Sorry to hear that man

[stray dirge]

Seems that it's just the life of a Div2 pc gamer at this point. I've searched high and low on the forums and the subreddit basically every solution. And my god it just crashes so much.

Weirdly enough I've had 0 crashing in the summit

overworld/missions mostly

[narrow matrix]

Yea I would jokingly suggest switch to console but I don’t want to offend pc players

[stray dirge]

Oh I got the game on console lol played on my 4k tv. But idk gaming with my mouse and keyboard is just nicer. :p

[narrow matrix]

Whatever works for you I find spamming R2 More satisfying than spamming left click lol

[vestal sandal]

where would be the best place to farm mantis?

[true siren]

mmr targeted loot

[vestal sandal]

mmr as in match made reagon?

[true siren]

marksman rifle targeted loot

[vestal sandal]

ah that makes more sense

would summit count?

[true siren]

you can change targeted in summit so yes

[vestal sandal]

ok thank you

[narrow matrix]

Can someone complete the liberation projects and such once they pass level 30 base game/ clear capitol building and eliminate ridgeway

In other words will all the projects and stuff be available for them to complete and the side missions

And the base game bounties such as meatwagon

[verbal lynx]

hi , is there anyway to get hunter's fury set pieces ?

it says just that season 3 reward

[narrow kraken]

Targeted loot locations

[verbal lynx]

can i ask how ?

[narrow kraken]

When you open the map, there'll be an option at the bottom that says "targeted loot" or something along those lines, and then you can look for Hunter's Fury's icon and info on the marked areas. Alternatively, you can go to the Summit and set the targeted loot to be HF pieces

[verbal lynx]

oh i see it now , thanks

unfortunetly there is no hunter

i think i have to wait for reset then

[narrow kraken]

You can just run summit if you're into that kinda thing

[verbal lynx]

didnt enter there before

i'll try

[untold drift]

Guys, what is repair skill?
