holy shmokes gonna try this glad to heave heard

narrow matrix
#

Call for backup pulls people looking to join anything

#

Matchmake can be just a single mission or something else

night anvil
#

yeahp, anyone can answer the 'distress', its pretty cool

slender heath
#

Yeah I remember that from back in the day, Im not picky about activities Im just wanting to run around mindlessly with people

night anvil
#

if youre not finding people matchmaking, starting backup call/sending it out is great you will find people

narrow matrix
#

Do you want to be the one leading those activities or do you not care and just wanna play ina group

night anvil
#

i dont think i can crossplay sir

narrow matrix
#

Cause in that case you can answer the call yourself

night anvil
#

but i would play with any agent

plucky mesa
#

true - thats a good point, again, as long as your world is set to heroic you should get players joining you

night anvil
#

awesome

inner tendon
#

@night anvil One small thing, "call for backup" works one at a time, so you'll need to call again if you want more ppl.

night anvil
#

interestin.

#

thanks for that too

slender heath
#

Is there a way to answer calls for backup without them just showing up? Like can i just opt in to join people or something

narrow matrix
#

Matchmake menu > answer the call

narrow matrix
#

Does doing each manhunt bounty for the targets (Luna, Termite, etc) during their league give extra rewards?

#

I've been saving them

pine pollen
#

can someone help me neutralize ballisik armour ive been trying for ages

true siren
#

just use a pistol

narrow matrix
# pine pollen can someone help me neutralize ballisik armour ive been trying for ages

the way to do it is you need a rifle with all stability mods - no crit chance - start by taking out all of the enemies, you can use a shock trap and the tamper proof talent for the turret which you can throw down to shock him in place, use a sniper turret so it doesn't shoot him (he will draw aggro to the turret). If you have flashbang grenades this also helps. Start by taking out his shoulder pads, then his helmet, then go for his elbow pads, kneepads, backpack and finally chest piece (in this order) it prevents you from accidentally killing him...

#

if you don't have any of the above or don't feel like going through the hassle, let him prepare to swing at you, then roll away, he will stumble and you will have a few seconds to shoot

#

I used a SIG 716 when I did it

#

so any rifle with fast fire rate, high stability and high accuracy

true siren
#

any weapon with low dmg, pistols are the preffered because you can use your spec pistol and just use the lvl 30 version

narrow matrix
#

I think a decoy can also help

hallow jewel
#

So if I'm on summit level 100, there's no way to get the stupid boss level related challenges unless I matchmake... weak!

true siren
#

what

foggy needle
hallow jewel
foggy needle
#

No, it only resets completed ones

hallow jewel
foggy needle
#

Same answer.

hallow jewel
#

yeah I only have the boss related ones left so reseting is more work

foggy needle
#

less work, but you do you ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

hallow jewel
#

Unless I matchmake and get lucky tho

narrow matrix
#

You can keep matchmaking to get up there just don’t be that guy that jumps shepherd status to get to the highest floor

#

Once you get to floor 70 or so it’s not that bad getting to 100

karmic furnace
#

the big horn only drops on floor 90 of legendary summit ye? (ik its leg strongholds aswell

foggy needle
#

No, off any legendary boss. So boss floor bosses count

karmic furnace
#

interesting okay thanks, read somewhere it was floor 90 only

narrow matrix
#

Naw ridgeway pieces are on certain floor ranges

untold drift
#

Just got gunner, any tips and advice, fellas?

narrow matrix
#

you could say its the most versatile specialization

untold drift
#

Oh? Make sense

untold drift
narrow matrix
#

Basically it doesn't need any range or specific targets / hits to get special ammo and its benefits / talents can be beneficial with directives

#

Gunner's ammunition is not that hard to replenish actually, neither is sharpshooter and firewall unless you're playing at a distance

narrow matrix
#

Pull it out to hit weak points on tanks or mow down rushers / enemies pushing, you kind of want them to be in the same position say a door or hallway for it to be of good use

#

well firewall requires you to be within 10 meters

#

at a distance is basically anything over 15 meters which is considered SMG range

#

AR Ranges are between 28 - 36 or so (meters)

#

Rifles / Marksman rifles go from 40-60

untold drift
#

Oh, the optimum distance

#

Very detailed explanation, thank you once again @narrow matrix

inland moat
#

So guys, will the shield still be viable in PvE after the upcoming update?

#

I don't pvp, and really want to build a red pve shield build

#

I have my skill build fully sorted now

#

so a good red build is next

nimble spruce
#

shield is still viable in pve, you just need to be a bit more careful about letting it get broken (which you'd usually want to avoid anyway)

#

disorient effect seems relatively minor anyway

untold drift
#

Wait, DZ had exotic?

nimble spruce
#

currently, none of the exotics are dz-exclusive (although some of them have been in the past)

dusk vortex
narrow matrix
#

Does doing each manhunt bounty for the targets (Luna, Termite, etc) during their league give extra rewards?
I've been saving them

nimble spruce
#

nope

#

I generally leave the missions part until the league week so I can run them as speedruns (two birds, one stone) and of course you get the double xp for first 15 levels when a new target becomes available, but that xp bonus comes regardless of what you do, doesn't have to be manhunt-related

narrow matrix
#

I remember when I did all of Faye Lau literally all of the rogue bounties dropped exotics and named items for me

foggy needle
#

not DZ exclusive

#

was way back in the past though (like Tu 4 or something)

languid eagle
#

Lol ok

#

Quick question about earning The Bighorn exotic: It's 5% chance to drop at the end of Legendary missions, but is there a limit per week to try each legendary mission for it? Or it doesn't matter how many you're doing in a week?

dusk vortex
#

no limit

#

well the limit is your sanity lol

midnight plume
#

Perfect, I've lost my mind long ago 🙂
Also, in Legendary Summit, how does The Bighorn drop? Is it a boss-floor thing?

narrow matrix
#

The 5% chance is from bosses so yea

#

If it has multiple bosses then it’s the end boss I think

#

To farm, kill all enemies but one and go to lobby

young ferry
#

im new to the game and trying to do the story but ive been matchmaking for a story mission for 20 min, do i need to group at this point or is there a way for me to try it solo?

narrow matrix
#

You can do the entire story solo

#

The group would just make you lose the story cause they will speedrun

#

If you find you need help don’t matchmake, call for backup instead

young ferry
#

at low level should i just throw on whatever is higher stat or go for builds

narrow matrix
#

Whatever’s highest

#

Builds are for level 40

young ferry
#

thank you

dusk vortex
#

except for rouges i think?

midnight plume
#

Good to know, thanks for the heads up!

narrow kraken
#

How does getting the Stinger work, exactly? The spreadsheet says it's through friend referral

carmine musk
#

is there a way to get a camp to reset or is it just on a timer?

narrow matrix
#

Basically you need someone brand new to an Ubisoft account connected to Division 2. You share them your referral link and they need to accept it. However you need to wait until both of you receive a confirmation email that you’re linked. The recruit has to be under 3 hours - non boosted character. Within those 3 hours you must play and complete 3 main missions with them. I think strongholds count as well but I’d just stick with missions. After the main missions are completed you need to wait 24 hours to see if it delivers to your stash or inventory. If it doesn’t work you’re forgotten about and either need a new friend or someone to make a burner account

#

I’ve tried it 3 times with 3 different people, keeps failing

#

If it works where you’re both connected via Ubisoft you’ll see an icon next to your name in game when that person plays with you

#

While sharing your friend referral they get an xp boost to level 30

#

When they play with you

narrow kraken

Ahh, suffering. div2relax

There goes my leadership build

#

Guys, i really need help
i am buying new york dlc with discount but it is on epic?
but my base game is on Uplay
will my uplay receive the expansion?

inner tendon
#

WONY goes on sale very regularly on uPlay, so if you're unsure it might be worth waiting.
75% off on uPlay is quite common for WONY.

untold drift
#

and the sale of WONY will be on next year since its sales of this year is over

inner tendon
#

It's almost Easter near me, I imagine that there'll be some kind of sale on around then.
Every major holiday has one, basically.

untold drift
inner tendon
#

That is incorrect, there is definitely more than one sale a year for Div2.
I've encouraged several friends to start playing it over the period of the sales.

untold drift
#

oh ok, thanks for the advice and the detail

dusk vortex
#

Just be patient

slender heath
#
  1. When are the daily/weekly resets?
  2. Is there much difference between someone just trying to break into heroic content for matchmaking with people and people that have done it besides minmaxing? Is there any kind of milestone I should be trying to reach with stats before going to heroic, or is it more about tactics and minmaxing at that point
foggy needle
#

1: midnight each day (PTS) weekly are at Tues 12am.
2: yes, jump from challenging to heroic is pretty big. Heroic vets can speed clear it while fresh heroic players will struggle to stay alive. milestone is having a good build for heroic and good tactics (need both)

#

re builds, lots of heroic builds listed in the pinned spreadsheet, id start there for build info.

slender heath
#

Is this reanimated event important? Should i be playing on it?

wispy moss
#

So im trying to get specific stats armor but i haven't been able to get it. I have been grinding heroic summit. Is there a better way than grinding heroic summit? We do tend to kill bosses quite quickly so its fast but we are just not sure if there are any better options, if someone could help us noobies out, thanks!

foggy needle
#

Summit or CPs 3+ are generally the best for loot farming highest difficulty with the most directives you can still speed clear on. and Loot drops is just RNG.

You can check the details of the event on the splash page on your Seasons menu.
the tl;dr of it is "yeah, kinda, ish".
If you're great with headshots, it's the event for you.

blissful geyser
#

sounds like someone needs to up the map difficuly

slender heath
inland moat
#

Yeah, I got my build to the point where "hard" is now too easy, and suddenly challenging is where its at

#

Plus, the longer I play, the more aware I've become about enemy tactics, doors used by them, I've learned how to door camp

#

Shield is very useful for door camping

blissful geyser
#

especially if you use the flamethrower shield instead of the regular one

slender heath
#

Yeah ive been using hunters fury and trying to level the flamethrower class since it interests me. I played a lot at launch and the original 3 classes are already done. Missed this game a lot actually. Scratches the real world itch and destiny 2 scratches the space magic itch

inland moat
#

oh, got an objective for technician to destroy The Ravens armor pack before killing him in manning zoo. Not sure how best to achieve that

foggy needle
#

demo firefly

#

or can foam him then shoot it.

#

Foam and or Tall shield and on the lowest difficulty possible helps a ton on all those spec project tasks.

Quick question:
I’m new to how clans operate on The Division 2, and I’m wondering if they are usually only on the game or if they are on Discord.
If they are on Discord, how are clans built, maintained, and structured?

foggy needle
#

thats a loaded question...

#

TLDR: clans are maintained, and structured how ever the clan leader wants.

Is anyone down to help me kind of figure out the best way to do things and kinda what I should be doing to maximize my time? im SHD level 5 and obviously starting the game very late but just looking for help to get on the right track 🙂 , just send me a DM or even send me good videos to watch, there is just so much out there, thank you!

languid eagle
#

Go over to the first pinned message (the spreadsheet) and go to the builds tab

narrow matrix
#

From there I got used to enemy movements then worked my way up to heroic

#

Matchmaking or calling for backup to give you peace of mind is cool, but it’s not liked it’s making it easier the game throws way more damage and difficulty at you

slender heath
#

Alright. Ive got a bit of destiny brain, when i see a weapon with a higher DPS stat, should i just use that and drop everything else? I wanna use something like the grudge or whatever, but i have stuff thats set to 117k, vs the grudges 90k. How do i tell whats better?

#

Guys, newyork warlords level up system differs from main game system right? I mean it will be capped with 40 level and you only level up watches

languid eagle

stark raft
# languid eagle Correct.

but what about 300-350 350-400 gear score from main game. is it gone and now I'm stuck with NY warlords community?

Is there any way to get the striker helmet now?

#

I missed it before

narrow kraken
#

What visual differences does the Railsplitter have from the regular CTAR-21 other than the default skin? I noticed the Invisible Hand has a unique model

I got a Railsplitter but due to a bugged Named cache it's a GS 505 one

dusk vortex
narrow kraken
#

visual differences

earnest remnant
#

question. i've been using striker 4pc memento + chameleon for pretty much my entire time playing so far, and i want to tackle dark hours. Is this build able to fill a dps role? or do i have to grind for an entirely different set?

dusk vortex
#

If your DPS can cope go for it tbh

#

But it might fall off in Lucy and Buddy since there's no ads whatsoever in there. Save for the seekers

earnest remnant
#

ok so how about if i swap out memento for coyote

thorn osprey
#

what does the scorpion do? i know its a shotty but not the effect

narrow oar
#

stacking status effects and team dmg bufff

narrow kraken
#

And makes every cursed enemy kneel on the first shot

thorn osprey
#

yay, a gun to go with eclipse set

narrow kraken
#

Granted my banshe pulse does that too, but I need my quick stun petter

#

I recall Scorpio not working with Vile, which might then not make it work with EP

thorn osprey
#

i can check later on tonight when i go farm for it

#

also what is the rock & roll? no wiki page for it

narrow kraken
#

ACS-12, +50% mag size

thorn osprey
#

well hot dam

#

where does this thing drop mainly?

foggy needle
#

It works with vile and EP, scorpio status effect is just a normal status effect, with the exception of not scaling with the stat.

#

ALSO do note, the wiki is outdated. just use the pinned spreadsheet in #td2-build-advice that is up to date and has the PTS stuff being added. @thorn osprey

#

and iirc rock and roll is a DZ drop (spreadsheet also says too)

thorn osprey
#

# south bloom how can i get the capacitor for my 2nd character

Once you have unlocked it and gotten the first one, it appears in the loot pool for Assault rifle targeted loot but as an exotic its still going to be a rare drop. Get another one on your first char then drop it in the stash and your second char will be able to get it from there.

dusk vortex
south bloom
#

do the legacy caches from the vendor have a chance at getting the matador

oak talon
#

yeah, but you are way beter of with named cache

south bloom
#

rlly?

#

legacy gives 2 items

oak talon
#

the pool of named caches is allot smaller, with only named ,the legacy also has all the wony gearsets

south bloom
#

welp name cache it is then

oak talon
#

also isnt legacy 12 stars?

south bloom
#

got 30 stars rn

south bloom
oak talon
#

then definatly named, for 24 points you get 3 from named pool, instead for 24 4 from legacy pool

dusk vortex
#

Named pulls out everything except hunters gated named if you haven't done those

i have

had weapon handling sadly

was gonna make it all red but it had to have a blue on it

is there a way to get more resource convoys on the map after i did all of them

the other had chc

#

ferocious calm is as good as gathering dust lol

south bloom
#

XD

south bloom
#

i mean its perfect overwatch why wouldn’t u want that

dusk vortex
#

if you want in cover damage boost use composure

#

it triggers instantly

south bloom
#

but overwatch gives it to the whole team

#

which is why it would be useful

minor cradle
#

Im tryna play with one of my friends whos level 30 but doesnt have the DLC, is there anything we can do that benefits both of us since he cant join my group

dusk vortex
#

you have to join him everytime you both wanna tag along sadly

earnest remnant
#

why do so many ppl use lmgs in dark hours?

oak talon
#

are you looking at videos of it? as to me it sounds like you are looking at older videos of the raid from the first 5-6 months of wony with that staement

#

lmgs and rifles used to be the meta back then as ar's were pre buff back then

#

nowadays its 80%ars and 20% scorpio

dusk vortex
earnest remnant
earnest remnant
dusk vortex
#

Look at the max number LMGs can give

earnest remnant
#

ah, so its higher huh

dusk vortex
#

ARs are still fine

#

Plus there's the exotic bullet king

earnest remnant
#

bullet king is viable? i thought it had rather low dps on average

#

if bullet king really works then it might save me a lot of farming time

dusk vortex
tepid dust
#

I feel like if u stack crit crit w it it would be better

dusk vortex
#

free mag for everyone everytime the user hits 100x is nice

#

i also lowkey wanna say that LMG has a bit high damage per mag than AR?

oak talon
tepid dust
#

I think it would it has 800 rpm or 900?

#

Something like that

earnest remnant
#

what is dttooc?

tepid dust
#

Damage to target out of cover

#

Dttooc

earnest remnant
#

ohh

tepid dust
#

🙂👌

dusk vortex
#

DTOOC is the common abbreviation for it

earnest remnant
#

btw what does not missing a slot mean

dusk vortex
#

no mod slot unused

#

as in gear mod slot

#

although that is a strange requirement tbh since you'd most likely have all 3 mods used up

oak talon
#

some of the ars, f2000, honey badger, akm (1 of the variants) are missing a mod slot, like muzle or barrel.

earnest remnant
#

i see

oak talon
#

those ars are ussually avoided

earnest remnant
#

damn what a shame. i do really like the honey badger

#

i guess famas is better

dusk vortex
#

oh that kind

oak talon
#

famas is the top ar still

dusk vortex
#

you can still use honey badger tho?? it's close to a p416 performance wise

oak talon
#

only real reason to not use it is if you need a long rail for spotter, or if you want more accuracy

#

maybe ammo conservation as a third reason

#

but all ars are really within 8% of each other, so its only when min maxing when you should go meta, most of hte time you can run the best you have, or guns you like

earnest remnant
#

right

#

im kinda stumped on fitting survivability on my build. i could spec gunner but i feel like demo's dttooc is too important. most guides i see tend to run obliterate on chest piece instead of something like unbreakable

#

or maybe im going about this wrong and straight damage is the way to go

foggy needle
#

Fyi, that group buff from specs (ie that dttoc from demo) only buff the group and not your self.

earnest remnant
#

shit, really?

foggy needle
#

Yes

earnest remnant
#

so its not worth bringing

foggy needle
#

In a group yes, but solo no

#

Easy effective way to add a ton of self sustain is gunner + death grips.
Or 2-3 blues with shield + say ad rush.
Or 2-3 yellow cores for shield + 2nd skill.

#

And fyi, blue armor cores are worthless, UNLESS you combo them with enough things.

earnest remnant
#

im talking about a raid build btw

foggy needle
#

Info above still applies ^

#

That's PvE info ^

earnest remnant
#

but wouldnt that be sacrificing a lot of dps for the bossing

foggy needle
#

Also droping GC for say obliterate also helps.

earnest remnant
#

maybe im misunderstanding how it works but i swear i have never seen obliterate work ever

foggy needle
#

Yes, but less dps drop then swapping chest talent to unbreakable

earnest remnant
#

ignore me

foggy needle
#

Lol

narrow oar
#

Alright, question- I'm on the "Rats Gnaw our Bones" quest for Regulus (needing to collect the exotic components). I know I need to get these in raid, but I've already done my first run on the most recent reset. Can I still collect the parts this week? Or do I have to wait till next reset?

tulip fiber
#

Gotta wait for a fresh run

fallow inlet
#

Yup fresh run

earnest remnant
#

what should i be buying with the global event stars?

true siren
#

depends on what you want really

#

if you wanna upgrade gear, opti caches, if you want a chance at DZ exclusives, named item caches

narrow matrix
# narrow kraken There goes my leadership build

If you run sleigher or some other gun that confuses, I’m not sure if disorient counts as confused or blinder firefly you can use the galvanize talent to keep bonus armor up for your teammates if that’s what this was for, I came across a piece tonight and read the talent - immediately thought of this comment lol

#

So you can keep constant intimidate up for people using adrenaline rush

#

Scorpio can also trigger it I think

narrow kraken
#

I was aiming specifically for something that used CTC for bonus armor

#

Leadership, ninjabike, a gun with a talent for that

narrow kraken
#

If I find a DZ exclusive in the DZ once can I get it from LZ targeted loot?

narrow matrix
#

No

inner tendon
narrow matrix
#

If this is cover to cover, I don’t think it would really help

#

If you use a jammer pulse with EP does it prevent enemies from reanimating

spice siren
#

How often do you get new manhunts? Is it one per season or?

#

Need some general advice honestly:
There's so much in the game I want to do and as a true completionist - what order should I do things in?
I wanna climb summit, start all the projects, do the manhunts, do league speedruns, get gear to start heroics > raids. Basically wanna 100% everything but I tend to just do bits and piece all over and losing my mind over it. Is there an optimal route?

inland moat
#

As a completionist, I started out by finding all the comms, echos and artifacts

#

Got all side missions completed, all main missions

#

filled in all the data for people found.

#

As for projects, by the time you hit WT1, you should have ALL projects upto that point completed, ignoring dailies/weeklies.

#

make sure to go to the crafting bench and craft one of each weapon mod that they give

#

oh, and make sure to get the 5 hidden side missions

#

then race through to WT5 concentrating on just doing the 2 side missions and one stronghold per WT, crafting gear on each WT to reach the score required

#

Go to NYC, and follow the missions through to level 40 and NYC completion. Get all comms and echos in NYC.

spice siren
#

Yea I'm in WT5 already and done all of WONY - saving manhunts and collectibles in NY to last as I simply can just ignore it and not look at NY map ^^

inland moat
#

if you've done all of NYC you'd be level 40

#

not WT5

spice siren
#

Well thought that was the same thing ^^ but yes, im level 40 and SHD level 66 or something similar

inland moat
#

Once you've completed the entire story through WoNY and have the SHD levels unlocked, you can then start getting all comms and just rounding that section off. All comms and Echos, artifacts in both cities

spice siren
#

My progression in this game messes with me as I played 200 or so hours at release then quit, then played WONY for a week or so, and now came back a few days ago

inland moat
#

Yeah, I actually started again with a clearer progress in mind in a new char, deleted my old ones

spice siren
#

Should probably have done the same honestly. Things would be way less confusing at least

inland moat
#

Also, try to get into an active clan that looks after and accepts newbies

#

people you can talk to who can help you get better gear and start with builds

inner tendon
inland moat
#

this ^^^

spice siren
#

Yeah I reached out to a guild and sent a join request earlier today

inland moat
#

Bear in mind that there is a LOT of dead clans listed in game

spice siren
#

Noted. Reached out to one from the channel just mentioned, looks active enough

inland moat
#

yeah, the ones that advertise here are all good active clans

#

Get started on the manhunts

#

technically, they are old content thats being re-run

burnt knoll
narrow matrix
#

mission givers

slender heath
#

Is opening the new york safe zone chests worth it? I dont wanna go get all the SHD things if it isnt worth opening them

narrow matrix
#

nah

#

they're treesh, they give like 1% rolls

#

they're meant for you to open as you're going through WONY

#

so say you're level 33 by the time you finish with each manhunt target, the intended thing for you to have been doing is the safehouse project (activities, caches and bounties)

#

TLDR: those caches give story mode rolls which are treesh

inland moat
#

Its worth spending the SHD tech on them, as theres nothing else to spend it on. Do it after level 40, theres a decent chance you might get something you can use from them

#

especially as a fresh 40

#

and they can only ever be opened once

west wren
#

Heard something about raid exclusives being added to the general loot pool. Guessing this is false?

prisma whale
#

The exotics will remain

#

What did shift over is the Foundry Bulwark and Future Initiative chest and backpacks

covert marsh
#

can't say i'd be surprised if this is, indeed, the case, seeing as the dark hours gear sets eventually got added to the general loot pool

#

it's also been 2 years since iron horse came out

#

i would guess it's also related to the expertise system; if you don't have easy access to the chest pieces and backpacks for future initiative and foundry bulwark, it makes it doubly annoying to add expertise levels

foggy needle
#

You don't need the chest or backpack for the expertise system, you just need pieces of the set equipped

#

Armor exp shares the experience with all other pieces of the same set.

covert marsh
#

that's convenient

#

so that then probably points to whatever expiration of exclusivity that the dark hours gear sets went through (i dunno when that happened, i started playing in late 2020, and i wasn't really paying attention to game news at the time)

Do projects not share between other characters anymore? (Or just never have?) I made a new character and rushed beating WONY to do IH since I'm on the last step for the regulus and noticed the quest step isn't in my projects

#

The reason I ask is because the guide I was following said the projects are account wide, yet I noticed I could do my weeklies again

tulip fiber
#

Yeah, those don’t carry. I had to do the Regulus quest on my second as well.

minor cradle
#

are world tiers only for people who dont have the DLC? cause my friend has gone up 4 world tiers in like 1 day and i finished all my missions and strongholds im pretty sure and I'm not even on world tier 1. like in my world the enemies are "40" but when i go to his they were like "I" "II", etc over his enemies heads

inner tendon
#

World Tiers are before the story of WONY, which is set after them.
So doing them in order is the correct way if you want the story.

oooh ty

inland moat
#

yeah, levelling is 1-30, WT1 - WT5, WoNY 31-40

earnest remnant
#

is everything transferable between characters?

true siren
#

yes, generally

earnest remnant
#

what about stuff like completed missions

#

side missions i mean

true siren
#

Those dont transfer over

earnest remnant
#

so i wont have my unlocked attatchments and blueprints?

true siren
#

you wont, but you might be able to grab a share blueprints thing, not sure

#

well if you are just looking for the side mission stuff, boosting a character does complete those missions

earnest remnant
#

btw what does it mean by "the boosted character will not be able to earn achievements"

true siren
#

certain achievements are skipped because you dont physically complete them on the boosted character, you skip them

earnest remnant
#

i see, so future achievements will be able to be earned?

true siren
#

i believe you can still earn achievements but not the ones it skips

narrow matrix

You can craft the other ones I think, from the side missions

why does no one use the scorpio in pvp? is the talent removed or nerfed or something? is it just not practical?

true siren
#

in pvp the effects are different and takes too long to apply

#

needs 6 shots before you get ensnare, you'll be dead before that happens

karmic harbor
#

what if I do it at mid range relative to shotguns and they don't see me :DDDDD

true siren
#

your effects will be terrible and they'll take minimal damage

karmic harbor
#

idk i was thinking more that they'd get disoriented and shocked so you'd still have the jump on them

true siren
#

scorpio's effects are based on how many pellets hit, and shotguns are not the best weapons outside of ~15 meters

#

in PVP the effects are different

#

1 shot gives bleed, 3 gives disrupt, 6 gives ensnare, all with fairly short durations

karmic harbor
true siren
#

yeah you'll wanna run something else in PVP, its just not the best

#

guys i dont get it 😦

so this watch thing is just leveling up clockwise and you just select in which one of four skills of one skill type to invest? I mean if its time for offence skills I can select one of four skills to levelup. then it goes to defense skills group and again I invest my point to one of four defense skill. thats how it works right?

inner tendon
#

Correct, it goes 1 > 2 > 3 > 4 > 5 (Scavenging).
Once you've filled in all of the first 4, you'll only get Scavenging.

stark raft
inner tendon
#

One note: you will eventually max it out when you reach SHD Lvl 999, so don't worry too much about the path you take to get there.
It's advised to go for crit stats and skill haste first, but that's about it.

oh and it's Account based, as long as you've finished WONY on that char.

what the best way to do gunner research 5

#

i cant get all the armor off before i kill basilisk

true siren
#

use a low dmg pistol

foggy needle
#

Tall shield + pistol on the lowest difficulty allowed. (might be on hard) and just take your time.

misty gate
#

what about if I used oxidizer?

narrow matrix
#

it will kill him

#

once an armor plating is destroyed itll start attack his health

misty gate
#

damn, this is gonna suck then

narrow matrix
#

I explained it like this to someone else, hopefully it helps

#

the way to do it is you need a rifle with all stability mods - no crit chance - start by taking out all of the enemies, you can use a shock trap and the tamper proof talent for the turret which you can throw down to shock him in place, use a sniper turret so it doesn't shoot him (he will draw aggro to the turret). If you have flashbang grenades this also helps. Start by taking out his shoulder pads, then his helmet, then go for his elbow pads, kneepads, backpack and finally chest piece (in this order) it prevents you from accidentally killing him...
if you don't have any of the above or don't feel like going through the hassle, let him prepare to swing at you, then roll away, he will stumble and you will have a few seconds to shoot

misty gate

Okay wow thanks arrow, ill give it a shot

#

Why is Firewall an essential part of the HF build? Could gunner be used with it instead?

inner tendon
#

Firewall is suggested primarily for the shield that's locked to the Tree.
If you prefer Crusader instead, then Gunner is 100% fine.

inland moat
#

ah, gotcha.

foggy needle

because of the big damage buff from the firewall shield.

Maybe there's a headshot firestarter meta I don't know petter

Last night, i was fortunate enough to join a group doing the summit that was good enough to complete floor 100 and beat the hunters. I had called in the extract and acquired the ridgeway's project for the vest. For the challenge that is to neutralize 2 hunters, are the hunters on floor 100 more advanced than the hunters that can be spawned in free roam and should i spawn 2 instead of doing floor 100 again?

nimble spruce
#

either works, the hunters will be the same difficulty (dependent on summit/world difficulty) as any others you find. If you haven't done any of the masks yet, you may find some of them quicker and easier to spawn than getting back to floor 100

west wren
#

alrighty. I think i'll have to result to finding another group that is on or near floor 100 because it's hard to find randoms looking for hunters with sheparding + my main friend won't be able to play with me today. I appreciate your input tho. :)

If i have done the raid on my characters for the week im guessing i cant get it until next week

Always get a key from the final boss, so if you’ve got 4 already, that’ll be the 5th. Then you can open. If you need all 5, the final boss will always drop a key.

In the DZ clearing landmarks gives credits, right? It has for as long as I remember, but today only 1 out of like 15 clears have given credits. Is there any reason for this? Is it the fact that it's Invaded?

DZ landmarks only gives loot

You get dz credits from dismantling contaminated loots and the boxes

The latter you don't have to extract if you found some

Not DZ credits

I've seen E-Credits drop from landmarks, usually around 5k each landmark

idk why you wanna farm e-credits in landmarks tbh, bounties achieve the same thing

also you can sell the gears you got for extra too

#

hi guys, is there any chance to get legendary drops on normal mode The Summits ?

nimble spruce
#

You can get max- rolled gear on Normal difficulty but it's a lot less likely: difficulty effects the minimum rolls, which in turn affects the average rolls

#

Or if you mean Exotic items, yes you can get them too

obsidian walrus
#

ah i see. how about normal mode with 5 directives ?

#

will the result be the same?

obsidian walrus
nimble spruce
#

Directives increase the number of targeted loot drops you get, so can increase your chance of getting an exotic if you've got an appropriate target loot set.

#

It won't increase the quality of the drops though, and any drops on Normal are quite likely to have poor rolls.

#

I think higher difficulty also increases your chance of getting an exotic from a named enemy too

obsidian walrus
#

i see, i will play on at least challenging mode then 😦

#

thanks man

On heroic no directives I tend to get more drops than with directives, can usually go 1-2 summit floors not getting anything with directives

All a Directive does to alter it is to buff the chance that additional drop happens.

The manhunt rogues have DZ loot I’ve been told, does this apply to farming manhunt missions from an off season target, ie rerunning Jupiter, Hornet, Schaffer, Faye Lau…

#

Or is it just the manhunt rogues from bounties (the targets)

inner tendon
#

I'm 90% sure it only applies to the bosses during the active Manhunts, not the final Mission.

narrow matrix
#

Does this include the bounties for termite, huntsman, Luna and whoever the other person is?

#

Or just Hornet?

inner tendon
#

The Rogue boss that appears on the special Bounty once you finish a Manhunt? Those are what I'm referring to.
As for the rest, couldn't say, but I doubt it.

narrow matrix
#

Oh you’re saying manhunt as each individual target

#

Yea basically I’m talking about when you complete all the missions, cps and bounties for a single target

#

So how these past few weeks have been huntsman as the primary target

inner tendon
#

Once you do that special Bounty, kill the Rogue and you'll get a Named item, which pulls from the named item cache loot pool, which can include DZ stuff.
it's not overly efficient.

But why u wanna matchmake

mossy bronze
#

because i like playing in a group

wispy maple
#

i think that might be something on your end as when ever i okay summit

#

i insta matchmake into a group

dusk vortex
#

Also time, where are you in?

#

Well that actually is invalid since you can't easily switch server lmao

mossy bronze

figured EU players would be on

#

my friend from Poland plays heavily now sometimes

dusk vortex
#

You'd be mostly matchmaked "locally" from my experience

wispy maple
#

your gonna struggle that early i struggle that early on EU

dusk vortex
#

If you're up for it try asia lol

mossy bronze
#

that solved a couple issues

narrow kraken
#

Outside the weekly legendary you're not going to find that many people in legendary mission matchmaking

#

I've done all three legendaries once. Pick up groups with 1-2 members with a build that has no hope of working in Legendary are quite infuriating

Is James dragov mission have a chance give you bullet king? Or just Theo mission?

it's rikers boss drop or LMG target loot

The one marked on the map as orange in the middle-ish of the DZ

narrow kraken
# languid eagle There are 2?

The original Dark Zone Rogue system was pretty complicated, among it the Thieves’ Den, which was unlocked if you did enough stuff while rogue and had DZ resources to barter

hollow wadi
narrow kraken
#

This was largely simplified because it really was just complex for its own sake, and the Thieves’ Den spots have been retooled into the safe rooms

#

yeah, no idea if it has to be on separate visits to the DZ though

is RIDGEWAYS PRIDE project still available?

#

i mean, to get drop the components in the summit crates

hollow wadi
narrow kraken
#

You get them from the chests after certain floor intervals, you don't need to get them in order even

#

Nor does it have to be in your session

#

It's every 20 floors I think

hollow wadi
#

yes but i am not getting droped, i guess is bad luck

foggy needle
#

its guarrenteed from the reward chest

#

check out the ridgeway line on the spreadsheet, that tells you the floors for the parts.

hollow wadi
narrow kraken
#

but I had it open so here ya go:

"Body Armor" floor 1-20
"Shoulder Pads" floor 21-40
"Hunting Knife" on floor 41-60
"Flag Patch" floor 61-80
"Dog Tags" floor 81-100

foggy needle
#

^^

hollow wadi
#

okay so, i will get body armor 100% if a do 1-20 floors?

narrow kraken
#

Yes you have to open the chest one of those floors

hollow wadi
#

and it will drop 100>%?

#

i have open a lot of crates in floor 1-20 and nothing 😦

narrow kraken
#

Maybe you have that piece already

hollow wadi
#

nope

#

i don't have any piece

narrow kraken
#

Hmmm that's weird

hollow wadi
#

i will do one more run of 1-20 floor an let's see if i get it

hollow wadi
tulip fiber
#

It’s RNG as to which crate will have it. I had to get the last piece and it dropped on the last box.

foggy needle
#

not RNG

#

Those parts are 100% chance from that floors box, as long as you don’t already have the part or ridgeway exotic on you or your stash.

#

Guess I'm too dumb to realize, how do I know if I'm participating or have an active event ?

I do get ranks when completing stuff such as headshots and weak points

#

But that's all I know lol

#

I don't have any part

Just saying it drops on those floors, but it’s random as to which crate.

#

Ok,

narrow kraken
#

Huh I just realized on my alt character I have all the Ridgeway components except the 1-20 one, but I definitely ran through the entire thing already... weird

#

I mean I have it crafted already so idc

burnt knoll
narrow kraken
#

Right so some events like the Reanmiation one (that ended today as well) you have to trigger on/off. When the event is active, you just select that pane and it should show you how to activate/deactivate

#

Right now none of those events are active, but next time around you'll see it

#

Those are called "Global Events"

burnt knoll
#

Ohhhh okok

Thanks

#

What's the drop chance of an exotic?

#

I'm challenging with two directives, with backpacks as my targetted loot

narrow kraken
#

If you play the Summit you can put a ton more directives which may help you out and if you are able to play Heroic it's your best bet

slender marlin

YOOOO I JUST GOT IT

I'm getting very lucky with exotics today

what do high velocity rounds do?

Can I add any attributes to the Memento, other than with a mod?

#

For example, recalibrating it? Or is that not possible

narrow matrix
#

Nah

#

Can only optimize or reconfigure

narrow kraken
fallow inlet
#

@narrow kraken there is reconfigured which requires 1 exotic component ,could make it better, but could make it way worse

narrow kraken
#

I've never seen an exotic roll so bad I'd even think of rerolling it

languid eagle
#

If you were to mark a chunga with the Negotiator’s stack, and then you mark another enemy that is not a chunga, will you damage the normal enemy from the chunga’s plates?

languid eagle
# plucky mesa yes

So, for second IH fight with the chunga and the purple assault, I can mark both and just lay lead into the chunga?

plucky mesa

#

That can be managed

#

Thx nug

narrow kraken
#

Can I get the lady death smg from just killing bosses marked in smg zones on heroic or is there a quest locking it?

tulip fiber

Just target loot SMGs

narrow kraken
#

cool

narrow kraken
languid eagle
#

There is a 3% chance it drops from the world bosses in NYC

foggy needle
#

yes BUT those NYC world bosses are time gated. so very not worth it, besides target loot has an overall higher drop rate then the NYC bosses for lady death.

it is

just RNG

karmic harbor
#

is there a way to recommend small features that should be added to the game? cuz i hate opening like 60 apparel caches

#

i wish you could speed up the opening

valid vigil
#

How the heck are you even getting that many caches

spice siren
#

I think I have a few hundred apparel caches... Never opened a single one

valid vigil
#

Good lord man

shy shell
#

I hate having to open so many as well

#

I just want the textiles so I can get the outfits I don’t have yet lol but it takes ages to open them all

Those kinds of cosmetics have never really been my thing, which I could convert em to something useful instead ^^

misty gate
#

Question for shield users, why do 98% of you guys stand in front of everyone to block their shots and then complain because nobody’s able to kill anything, and also run into teammates to push them out of cover?

dusk vortex
#

have you tried strikers shield?

#

the playstyle is literally "have enemies stand in front of your shield so you can deal more damage"

valid vigil
#

I think he meant friendlies, stand in front of em so they can’t shoot

dusk vortex
#

again it's how it's supposed to be played anyway, if they complain because of their aggresive playstyle it's their own fault for being too greedy lmao

misty gate
#

Exactly, they just body block everyone get downed and whine

dusk vortex
#

I mean the most thing you can do is just help them by being the CC

narrow matrix
#

Pretty much every run in invaded Lincoln memorial I do with randoms who block door spawns and such causes the whole team to wipe

#

In the kill room especially

#

They ignore drones and pulse grenades and just mag dump out of cover

#

Jefferson plaza on the roof and the rooms after do be rough as well with that shield blocking

#

Good old ignore the sniper dawg!

dusk vortex
#

I mean if it's lincoln you have to know the spawn orders

#

Still true for other missions tbh

narrow matrix
#

I think my playstyle causes me to get distracted cause I notice when playing people ignore 4 archetypes that causes the team to wipe so I try to get them if I can,

Enemy skills (if they have a weak point I’ll take it out) or if it’s black tusk you can’t mess around and have to take them out unless you have a tank, any grenadier archetype and leader archetype which overcharged the enemies in radius and chungas - at minimum take out the weak point of chungas or have some pin them whilst everyone else as clears… people who go straight for named enemies then turn around and wonder why nothings dead and they are irk me… plus no one seems to use utility skills, ie blinder firefly, most I ever see used is banshee pulse which does produce a hell of an advantage, but there’s others such as the grenades from your spec and shock traps etc

#

I still can’t figure out if hyena turrets have a weak point

#

Oh and medics, sometimes when you reload and loom back out you’re like where did all y’all (revives enemies) come from 😂

#

I wonder if medics can revive enemies you headshot kill like how reanimated disabled their defibrillator

The challenges/commendations where you need to finish the mission or certain amount of floors without losing all of your armor is that 1 full armor bar not breaking or not using up all the armor kits you start with

inner tendon
#

It's your armour bar not being reduced to 0, you can use as many kits as you want.

Does the vigilance perk deactivate if my shield takes dmg?

I only managed to save 5 until i'm tempted to open them all and i can understand the frustration that there isn't a 'open all' button or key.

I think a button to skip the animation would suffice

#

and i guess the gift thing would work? I love the idea but would they add it

Beats me. One can hope though, right?

Quick question. Am I able to craft Liberty again? I just bought WoNY and it says level 30, so after the NY campaign it should be weak for that content.

#

yes as long as you dont have it on your or your stash. other option: you can also just upgrade it to level 40 viva the exotic reconfigure option.

Hello Agents. I just unlocked the firewall specialisation and wondering how I get the upgrade points to unlock its full potential. Is it just having it equipped on my load out? It’s been a while since I upgraded a specialisation. Thanks

rancid lark
#

Levelling will give you points, as will doing projects. A very good source early on will be doing certain bounties. When you inspect them, they show if that bounty will give upgrade points (usually 3-5)

First clear of those gives 3 iirc

Question: if I want to get, say, the Nemesis, I have to wait until the exotic quest is in rotation? I notice the current one is for the Dodge City Gunslinger.

stiff elm
#

If you want to get Nemesis you have to deconstruct Adrestia Sniper Rifle which you take in a Tidal Besin mission (by opening a room with the key you get during the mission). This is the beginning for the Nemesis hunt. OR, I'm not sure about this one - you can just try weekly projects that guarantee you exotic caches and try your luck there

pliant cosmos
#

Got it. I can't access it, it's not Invaded.

stiff elm
#

You can't access which mission?

pliant cosmos
#

Tidal Basin.

#

Sorry, was killing Shaw.

narrow kraken
#

Tidal Basin is invaded every week

#

I think Tidal Basin doesn't even need to be invaded to have BT

#

It is a BT stronghold

#

Maybe it's restricted then

inner tendon
#

Access to Tidal Basin mostly requires the Invaded missions to be completed, (e.g. 3 regular > Stronghold > Tidal Basin)
No, Nemesis is not the Exotic Loot Pool until you collect the Blueprint from GWH.

stiff elm
#

Ah, yes, that's what I wasn't sure about

karmic harbor
#

does downing a player count as a 'kill'

#

like does downing someone without eliminating them with a melee activate talents that require kills? like tenacity

#

or do you have to finish them off on the ground

tulip fiber
#

Gotta go for the kill. Downed, they can still get revived. Finish them.

karmic harbor
#

I know they can still get up, im just confused if I have to finish them off with he gun to activate a talent

tulip fiber
#

If the talent specifically says “kill”, ex. Killer, or the Memento trophies, then you need to get the kill.

stoic void
#

Finisher as well

#

But vindictive you can activate by downing or finishing the player on the floor

analog crypt
# karmic harbor or do you have to finish them off on the ground

Tenacity - Downs = kills, skills = kills, finishing does nothing other than get u out of combat when no on else is there although if u use adrenaline rush it may be better to keep them for extra procs, and if using firewall do cover to cover, u can survive A LOT of incoming damage

analog crypt
inner tendon
#

^ Correct.
Swapping from this weapon within 10s of killing an enemy grants 30% critical hit chance and 30% critical hit damage for 15s.

#

Generally speaking, if you just read the Talent it'll explain how it works.

stoic void
#

My bad

#

What if they give up when they are downed count as well?

analog crypt
inner tendon
#

I did say "generally", but it's a good note anyway.

foggy needle
#

Yup what he said ^^. Although for PvE everything matches the talent description except those sadist like talents.

Pvp and raids do change somethings though.

Guys a small question about hunter mask. Its possible to see in the future the veil hunter mask from td1 ?

If I get to lvl 100 on the event, and buy the season pass, do I get all locked rewards ?

@quaint birch There's actually a "Veil" mask in div2 already, it's part of the WONY Hunter set.
I don't recall exactly what they looked like in Div1, but with 25+ Hunter Masks in div2 available at any one time, it's possible to be at least similar.

honestly wish the veil mask had more of a veil, like theres already a reddit post about it

Targeted Loot: [Backpack] +Directives, Challenging or above.
That's your ideal method, the location is largely up to you.

Doing targeted backpack, 6 directives and challenging Summit

does legendary improve the quality of items that drop during the mission? I know heroic generally gives better quality than challenging, so is it the same way from heroic to legendary?

i'm new to the game and am almost done with the base campaign. is it better for me to do the world tiers or skip straight to new york after i hit level 30?

delicate cliff
stiff elm
#

Storywise - don't skip
Grindwise - skip

lime gyro
#

the biggest draw to doing the world tiers is probably experiencing the plot that the invaded missions/coney island/camp white oak have, but you can always come back to those later

grave gulch
#

whats everyones favourite or considered best non-exotic SMG?div2question

stark lance
#

how long will the world tier grind take? and if i skip will i be able to replay the invaded missions? i heard that if i skip i can't replay the side missions

#

might just make a new char for new york since there's no "infusing" gear

lime gyro
#

the world tier grind takes a few hours. Once you finish it, parts of the map become invaded weekly, so you'll be able to access them that way
