after lvl 50
One of the countermeasures (short range damage) gives a huge buff once activated, like double damage or so (only within a short range obv)
if you delete a character, do you keep the appearance slot?
Appearance slot?
You can have up to 4 characters on your account, if that's what you're asking. Deleting one will make room for a new one
the appearance mods* that ive unlocked. I noticed they transfer to other chars
if i delete my main will it move char2 to to char1 slot?
did anyone find cassie? if yes can someone invite me so I can buy some gear
I can't see her because I can't find the snitch
Thanks
I just did it and did not work 😦
Got your invite tho!
hey does division 2 has cross-play with pc and xbox?
Yes
How long does a pulse from the technician laser pointer lasts exactly?
exactly idk
but from what i noticed i think 2 seconds after you take your aim off
So it can be theoretically infinite as long as you keep aiming?
it is ,not it can be
Nice
is gs 475-550 gs dz dead?
afaik if you dont have the dlc you dont get put in with the people who do, so yeah
Hello you guys! I just finished my first build (Heartbreaker+Kingbreaker all red) and i really don't know what I should focus on doing now. I'm currently just SHD lvl 27 (just from continuous countdown), any advice?
Leveling up, doing the seasonal activities, getting more builds ready, fine tuning your current build, work towards legendary, level up your specialisations, theres quite a lot to do.
Thats like three disconnects in three minutes..am I unlucky? 😛
Legendary is a difficulty, yes. Its only present in a few places, namely the Summit and the 3 main strongholds, DUA, Capitol, and Roosevelt.
Thanks so much Aspect!
Oh one more thing, what's the easiest/quickest way to lvl up SHD?
Floor 10 of the summit or resource convoys, both with directives. They also take a toll on your sanity.
Ohhhh so that's why people are farming that floor 10 thingy, aight, thank you again!
I must be doing something wrong thats seven disconnects in the last 15 minutes but nothing else is lagging on my system that takes bandwidth...is there a way to switch servers? I get halfway up the capital steps and then as I open the gate everything lags out and I disconnect and end up starting over again x_x
yep
also the loot on summit floor 10 is really good
are there certain meta that they use for summit floor 10 farm?
oxidizer is popular
Are the xp perks worth picking up to get the extra xp gains for staying alive longer? I'm not sure how big the bonus is.
They add up, but not really gamechanging
Anything of note to pick up early? Only at level 4 atm
just keep going through the story, pick up everything you can.
Use the highest level gear you can find, makes stuff easier.
Is there a good place to go to find clothing?
the ingame store
The base game clothing I mean. The stuff you find in containers. I know that in division 1 apartment buildings were a pretty reliable place to look but doesn’t seem the same here
would you guys farm field recon from heroic or challenging cps?
Most efficient way is Floor 10 Summit on Challenging
Hello guys, so I just got Coyote Mask, is there a way to max the attributes of it or I need to farm until I get godroll? Coz I saw atleast 5 people who has godrolls Coyote Mask
3 per clear and you can clear it very fast with an Eclipse build
hello there! is that for solo? or you need a squad to do that
Faster solo
Optimization or reconfiguration
when you get more exotics that are duplicates (it'll happen, you eventually get a lot of them/alot of the same 2) you can break them down into exotic components and reroll the percentages on your exotics, called reconfiguring. Blueprint for doing that is at inaya, crafting lady
Reconfiguration likely won't yield a godroll, but it can get you closer to it
got it, I'll try that out
hey can you elaborate on this? floor 10 summit is just clearing floor 10 then resetting it over and over?
what the heck i tried responding but it instantly deleted my message
"uh not sure what will get you field recon, but i know for the loot you kill everyone bar 1 enemy and then quickly return to lobby, and then for xp just do the entirety of level 10 and then kil- kaboom yourself with a grenade or somethin"
thats better
for field recon I need a full clear so I'm just clearing the floor then killing. Thanks for the tip
thats all good :)
also does anyone know i guess not a confirmed way because thats too unlikely but atleast a point in the right direction on how to get system corruption pieces
cause i stg ive done everything that i can think of being dz landmarks, invaded or non invaded, dz airdrops, tried farming dz cachesand didnt even get gear brand pieces let alone system corruption pieces
i only have 2 pieces and thats from legacy season caches but for all i know you can only get those from global events
they are rare, easiest way is wait for a ge and but legacy season caches if you can
how do you get legacy season caches other than global events or is that the only way ;-;
Season pass and GEs are the ways i remember, there are probably others but they are few and far between. I will warn you though, SC is not great.
Its quite bad, actually, if that makes you feel better.
However if you just want it for completionists sake, then i understand
yeah ive seen someone make a build with it and it seemed how i like to play
Yes, it's clearing the boss floor then wiping to reset the floor. That's how you farm field recon as well as SHD. If you want to farm faction optimization points, then do the method that curly described where you kill the boss and leave at least 1 NPC alive, then return to lobby from the map. You want to do that on Heroic though
I got a big question. Do crafted weapons have lower damage than found weapons?
@ancient minnow no
How do I get the glowing arm thing thats lines and circles going up the arm?
@narrow kraken that's part of the polarity switch going on right now
yes
1 fire cc
1 oxy dmg
1 oxy dmg fi
1 oxy dmg/
sorry, newbie question, but whats polarity shift? I'm only lvl 12, can I get it?
Good morning.. I'm new to TD2 and starting to get into CP farming... Is there any preferred CP to farm?
polarity switch is a global event
which while you fight you gain polarity stacks , which increase the damage you take
by performing a cover to cover move , you use all the stacks and give them to the nearby enemies , therefore they will take more damage
you can also use a melee attack to transfer the stacks
cool, sounds like a lot of fun, is this stuff accessable @ lvl 12 or do I gotta get to max lvl?
that i do not know , sorry
go to season stuff and see if you can activate it
Whats better for a pvp crit build akm, famas or carbine 7 ?
in mission "Use Faye Lau's second decryption key to unlock the data" I have to use a key that I don't have, I have a screenshot
Wait until the next target. Don’t worry about it.
What is the best way to farm heartbreaker so far what i have farmed always comes with all blues and no reds anyway to make it a better possibility to roll red
Targeted loot at challenging difficulty or above iirc
best way to farm optimization materials?
Hmm ok because I farmed like 3 hrs on summit on heroic but got all blues 😪
@narrow kraken it's part of the new manhunt
Hello guys, what's the meaning of "GV24"?
Ohhh okay okay
Trying to do Roosevelt Island but I am stuck o nSecure the Entrance? Theres no enemies here so im confused...
Does the overall world difficulty affect the hunter's strength too? Those you spawn for the masks
yeah pretty sure
Had this happen to me a few times. Restarted the mission and it was okay afterwards
Occasionally, this game has an issue with spawning enemies at times 😂
Its a one time thing
Does artificer hive heal your shield?
Is it best to just drop it if you need heals on shield or just let it do its thing?
just got a rock n roll from a conflict cache does this confirm dz exclusive named items can drop from conflict caches?
At the end of Countdown, can you just keep farming that one helicopter that keeps coming?
Not sure for how long you can farm it but the group i was in just did like 5 or more of them
Is the final 3 minutes counting down the time you have to signal for your own helo?
Yes you can as long as the timer doesn't hit zero
So you just farm it until it gets kinda close then signal for extraction?
If you wanna maximise farming at extraction, call the chopper 10 seconds before time runs out. Then you get an extra minute to farm because you're waiting for the chopper
I was just following what the group did. But that does seem like what they did.
Yeah I follow the group too. Some people understand this but others call the chopper as soon as they get to the extraction area
Don't drop it unless you need the jammer resist. It will activate from your hip as long as you have your shield out.
Ok cool
Ya I am just coming back to the game. I only played a bit when it first came out. So everything is very new to me. But I do follow well.
Just remember to have a good time above all else. That's what matters 
Yes sir. I dont play any game unless I am having fun.
If I am fitting in a ceska piece into my HB build does it matter what piece I use?
People prefer the backpack because of the talents you can put on it and how they're not really making use of the extra 1% from the HB backpack
The most common one is vigilance because of the bonus armor and shield skill not removing vigilance when your character gets hit, meaning you have 2 layers of defense to not lose a good damage buff
oh ok that sounds good. I just got a nice holster am using right now, But I will look for a good backpack
^
current most common HB build is what Sterling said, with Coyotes being the 6th piece.
Ya I got the coyote mask the other day
Grats, it'll go on basically anything crit related from now on.
what's the max you can upgrade an item with expertise?
is loot allocation in the dz broken or something?
nvm I just found out, it's 20
So I have 2 kingbreakers. One has 10% crit damage and one has 8% damage to targets out of cover. Is the Dttooc better?
dtooc is 100% better, yes
How do you switch polarity of an enemy fireteam for the polarity switch day 1 challenges?
Melee. 👊
Ok cause I can switch the dtooc to the otherone then because it has higher assault rifle dmg
dtooc is effectively the attribute you're going to want on basically any gun.
ok cool
not true actually, im 24 and still going.
i mean 20 is not the max
Also, is there any button combo on console you can use to open the photo mode, rather than going through the menu
I don't think there even is one on PC
huh
Cool I can't link an image here but https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/wiki/thedivision2/guides/endgame/expertise
When you are proficient in all 343 items, you can reach Expertise Level 20, which means, you can upgrade each item that you are proficient in 20 times.```
ok, well i quess they fuck it up cuz i have seen alot players with 25 grades
i think they will cap it at somepoint becuz now it seems you can gain too much of expertise than you should
but who knows when this is going to happen
Yeah the cap should be 20 I think, the fact that it goes above (or is even implemented to go above 20) is a bug
Think people were saying the cause was the "Donate all Junk" button giving more XP than usual? Or maybe it was reverse and donating items individually was giving more instead
Either way, the fact that 20+ is even implemented in the live build is sad
whole thing is so buggy 😔
Call the exterminator 
donating gives you correct amount now i think but if you level items legit ways while doing missions etc you somehow gain more than 1 profience level per item
What I dislike about the "donate all junk" thing is there's no visual cue or UI to confirm once the action has been done
Me standing there and just spamming the button 😎
been there dude
And there I was thinking "is my controller broken?" 😂
I was hoping it would trigger a glitch where it would count the donations multiple times XD
What’s the difference between M1A CQB and SOCOM M1A
why are people farming 10 floors ?
The 10th floor is the easiest boss floor, so people spam it to farm loot and XP
They kill shit and game end themselves before they finish the floor, so they respawn at the start with the enemies respawning as well
"game end themselves"
automod really got us rephrasing things

Which weapon types do you generally find most useful while leveling? I'm kinda loving LMG so far but I'm only level 4 😛 so kinda curious.
ARs are my choice because of the versatility while fighting in new places
There are parts in certain missions where having an SMG or shotgun can be really annoying
I can't stand shotguns so far so no worries about that
Wait until you get your hands on a Scorpio 😛
Don't think I'll be seeing any weapons like that for a while 😉
How do gear levels factor into DZ pvp? I feel like the game is trying to push me to try out a DZ, but I am not sure if there is any scaling as my character is only level 11.
for ridgeway chest do u hve to complete the summit before or after getting all pieces
After
Anyone got a fix for your weapon icons not showing in your bag?
Let me guess, after a while the world also starts falling apart and you see props with a progressively worse LOD and eventually can't even take cover anymore?
Nope
If you're talking to me. Just sometimes I will go into my inventory and my weapon icons won't load. No other problems aside from that
Pretty sure the mission that takes you into the DZ is instanced. You most likely won't bump into other players
Even if you do, run away if you're not feeling confident
Copy that! Thanks
Is there a way to afk without being kicked to agent selection? Other than running in circles I mean. Like say being in downed state
my keys did not reset this week for ironhorse any help would be nice
pick an alt char....
Handling and bit of damage iirc
its a bounty
If you don’t complete that by the time the week is over does it disappear?
If that's the case the final target will be locked
Is it worth coming back to grind out heart breaker? Ive practically done everything pre expertise update and idk if its just me wanting to see how strong it is then just dip after like a week lol
That's exactly what you'll do. If u weren't interested in the game pre 15.0 then it will only entertain u for a week
like, i truly tried to enjoy the game pre 15
farmed everything and every build u can dream of
then i burnt myself out, esp with darkzone
then i occasionally get utube vids about the heartbreaker build and it keeps me thinking about it lol
but yea guess itll just repeat so prob not worth it huh
U can still get that 1 week worth of entertainment. Update's free
idk if i wanna redownload div tho lol
gotta c if i wanna start farming summit again T_T
Just got my first duplicate Exotic and dont know what to do with it, should I just scrap it so I can get a component or is there something else I should do ?
Scrap it if it's worse than what you got
Couple questions about responding to requests for assistance:
- If I finish helping the host out with a side mission, do I have to quit out of the party to return to my world?
- What's up with the rating system? Only briefly saw it when I first joined.
- I saw that you can "share" unmodified items that drop in these coop instances. What do you have to do to share those items?
- Is there some reason the weapons dropped in coop say that they are the level of the activity/host but deal more damage than my at level weapoms? Ie bolt sniper level 12 at 2700 dmg, but a level 10 that dropped jumped to 2997
It was just slightly better than what I had so I just switched it out, thx
- Pick up the item or earn it while in a group with the person you want to share it with. If they aren’t in your group at that time you can’t share it
Make sure not to put weapon attachments on them
You have 1 hour to share I think
- If you’re level 12 and someone else joins you or vice versa the game will boost your damage to the base stats for level 40. Your armor and health I think it ignores tho, never really noticed that I got a buff
- Yes
- If you’re talking about endorsements then that’s shepherd level
Thanks for the quick replies! It was weird seeing the items dropping at host level (10) having higher damage values than the same ones I had at 12. Really appreciate the info!
No problem
Hello! Where do I get Vile Mask?
anyone got an extra eagle bearer on xbox, ive ran the DH raid countless times and have yet to open it.
Even if they do it can't be shared with u
whys that?
Items can only be shared with players that are/were in the same group when attained. And a time limit of 1 hour
Items from caches can only be shared if the cache was earned in the same group. Earning the cache earlier and opening it in the same group doesn't work. Anything crafted or bought from vendors including caches cannot be shared
ohh man i didint know that welp ig another 2 weeks aint gonna hurt me 🙃
Is the Season Pass worth getting, cause it looks pretty good for what its worth
When does cassie mendoza shop opens
@boreal crown Season Pass 's Premium Tier is great if you like the cosmetics, but only buy it if you want said Cosmetics.
there should be a vid on Youtube (unofficial) that showcases what's in there, if not now then soon-ish
was about to ask, and im ok with cosmetics
The Outfit+Lvl 100 Mask are the most interesting cosmetics on there, generally speaking.
All the rest will generally go unnoticed by other players.
nother question about the season pass, what are the other season manhunt rewards
are they just the missions or the entire manhunt itself ?
You permanently unlock the Manhunt from then on.
Once completed on a specific character, you also get the Unique Skill from that Manhunt.
Thats sounds great, thanks for the help
Hey new to the game and kinda have sets coming together. Is there any meta sets I should be going for to do the raids?
search youtube for dps raid build
Theres a spread sheet pinned in #td2-build-advice go check that out
has the essential builds you should need
Has anyone found out the secret of completing Countdown without crashing and having to reload the game
How far up is it? Or are you talking just the screenshots?
go to the tac icon top right
Although the meta right now is Heartbreaker, which isn't listed on the docs yet
blah blah blah heartbreaker coyote ceska vigilance blah blah blah
WTF that was a secret Sterling...
Now everyone will run it!
Thanks for the help appreciate it 👍
Ok so I found out that if I don't board the helo at the end of Countdown and just let the timer run out, my game doesn't crash. Is there any point in boarding the helo vs not?
literally best build
if you use foxes your wrong
Is there a place to check daily targeted loot outside of the game?
Is it just me or is the loot from Countdown getting much lower rolls than heroic summit?
anyone encountered or knows a fix to when donating for expertise sometimes the item is deleted but we don't get the exp?
just you
most items are max rolled in countdown
I wanna ask should i do the contaminated zone when I have the chance or at level 30?
Hello, is it normal that I can't find an area or mission that drops more handguns when I activate target loot?
Yeah, the places available in the game don't support all options of TL entirely
yes
are dread edict and bluescreen displayed anywhere, checked both the white house shooting range and haven
Not yet
Which weapon types are generally the easiest to use? LMG's or AR's? SMG's seem to have basically no recoil but super short range
It depends mostly on the range/purpose that you intend to use them for.
SMGs are closer range than AR's, whilst LMGs are kinda in a weird place right now with just being overall not quite as nice as ARs.
I am going to trry to solo farm the floor 10 thing. How do I reset it so I can farm loot?
Ahh I see it nevermind. It is on the map screen.
Where to get Vile mask?
Those are full of collectibles but I’m very sure there are missions inside of them
Morning Rivens and Rakey
They have been integrated into the storyline
@stray hollow
They turned them into missions
nope....i also get mostly trash
Just got a carbine 7 with damage to targets out of cover, yey. (?)
Grats on the ideal roll.
swap the Talent to something that's useful (I like Fast Hands, there's other choices) and you're golden.
Flatline is a great choice for a HB build.
Got flatline on it. Would that work better than KB?
Sorry, KB?
Kingbreaker
C7 is more stable for sure than Kingbreaker
Oh, yeah the firerate on Kingbreaker is a little low for my tastes.
C7 is generally considered one of the best AR's in div2 (along with famas/p416/other faster stuff)
Starting to see what some people said about modding AR's, they seem to outshine LMGs a fair amount once you get some extra stability/accuracy on them, at least while I'm still leveling. I like having 100+ rounds though >>
also, is it just me, or do Dare and Kingbreaker use incorrect in-game models
Dare's supposed to be the GR9, and Kingbreaker's supposed to be the TKB-408, but, for me, in-game, they're the Stoner LMG and the AKM, respectively
i didn't see that on the Known Issues list, either
Same here
best way to spawn rogue agents?
Been responding to calls for the extra xp. Are autoendorsements a thing or does the player requesting help have to go to the social tab to endorse?
I hope they didn't change it tbh i like the ak model, just wished that it can be equipped w the exotic skin
Mhm funny, you can stack heartbreaker with the sniper spec's tactician drone
What are the best attributes, talent for dark zone PVP
You can get 2 endorsements, 1 is automatic by the game, the other is given by the player if they’re courteous and pay attention
Good to know! I am not sure the people I've been helping know what an endorsement is, but I'm glad at least 1 is automatic. Thanks!
you need to play enough untill the game says you are elligible for endorsement
If you generally use an AR or LMG, what's a good weapon to pair with it? Sniper? It seems like AR/LMG cover the other bases pretty well
rifles
Oh right, I wanted to ask...maybe a stupid question, but rifle and marksman rifle are not the same thing, right?
two different gun classes correct
So why is rifle generally considered good but marksman almost never used? I've been reading guides during breaks at work to help learn the game and you almost never really see anybody mention wanting MM rifles, but rifles seem to be in a fair number of builds
Faster rof then mm and high dmg per shot so overall a good dps choice
rifles like the M1a can be used even without scoping....deal very good dmg on headshots and decent on bodyshots.....mmr really shines with Headshots ....which can be quite difficult to land for many player
why are people farming floor 10 ?
cause its 1 bossroom which doesnt change
its like 450k exp in 2min
made 700 shd in a week
so its just xp farm?
yeah...drops kinda bug out after a while
you still get decent exotic% from floor completion rewards though
heroic 8 directives and Event activated
Definitely. It's the only reason I have 3 so far
Sorry for this basic doubt, but I'm not a native English speaker and I'm not really understanding the Kinect Momentum text meaning: "When in combat, each skill generates stacks while active or not on cooldown"
When exactly does the talent generates the stacks?
generate*
Would a gear set such as aces being targeted loot affect the drop rate of another gear set such as sys corruption ?
when you start an encounter and they are on the field
In combat and when deployed or ready to be deployed (not on cooldown)
as long as there are enemies , combat music , and radar is going off you are in battle
you will also see your character's stance change when you are out of combat
Does anyone know why the last main mission is not appearing for me on the map? I have completed 32/33
you got all the offsite missions ?
Like the ones in Coney Island etc?
yeah
I think so, one is invaded so I'm not sure if that one is completed or not but I got the other ones ( checked, I completed the invaded one as well )
is Anarchist's Cookbook still available to get
Yep, in LZ so as long as you're farming Golan Gear, you should get it before too long.
Lz?
Sorry, old term.
"LZ" in this case means that you can farm it anywhere.
OK TY
in your case:
Targeted Loot: [Backpack] +Directives, Challenging or above.
Hi I've just wanna know how do I activate my Barden Legacy Manhunt target it's not giving me any results on Colney island
@inner tendon sorry to bother you
No worries.
Have you checked out the Amusement Park icon? Make sure you "change mission type" until the text is yellow and says "Manhunt".
It's not showing up
Odd, you've unlocked it in the Season Pass, right? It's on the Free Track.
Once you've done that, all you should need to do is go to Coney Island Amusement Park > "change mission type" > play.
Yes
Does it matter what difficultie it's on ?
Will it activate the Shaffuer hunt?
It only activates the final mission, the Manhunt is no longer possible to complete.
Are you for sure holding the button fpr "toggle mission mode" while at the Coney Island Amusement park mission start? The UI that pops up before you run past it.
Yes
The text is neon yellow, it's hard to miss.
It's not showing up why is it like this 
Send a picture of it to me, if you can.
What was the problem?
Thanks guys
How'd you fix it?
That pinned gear spreadsheet keeps freezing on me so I can't truly examine everything. Is there a resource in that document that explains damage calculation by any chance?
ikea
They make good desks.
arguable
can i still get the backfire exotic smg ?
yes
Yes target loot
Targeted Loot: [SMG] +Directives, Challenging or above.
follow that and you'll get it in no time.
i wonder if they are ever going to fix these increasing Delta3 it is really annoying when ur in countdown and half way done ur deltaed out the game
So I guess this question has likely been asked a thousand times, but I've been looking through older info online and it doesn't seem to help much...any way to fight the constant Delta 3 problems? It seems like they hit ~every 10 minutes, and then they just sorta stop...then come back. Over and over 😛
Oh, thats funny timing...somebody else asked too XD
What news on division ? Havent played for some time already, do you think is possible being good at pvp in dark zone by playing only 1 2 hours ler day max ?
I mean I think it's fun, but I'm also new...can't say anything about pvp 😦 but I can at least toss in a vote for fun
Im alrdy max level decent gear but i think the grinding is killing the fun like you have to play some time to beat guys in pvp dark zone
i get deltaed ALOT in countdown reagular stuff no deltas
this is why alot of people are getting annoyed about the game
I seem to get it pretty much everywhere at the moment
i run the game in admin mode and it stopped alot of it for awhile now its just returning
i think the content is great but its not great if they cant fix the errors that make the game unberable
I tried admin for the launcher as well. It seems to have helped some? Certainly didn't fix it entirely though. I did the workaround going into security for windows as well, didn't seem to help all that much
yea i mean literally i havent had an issue with the game in a long time till they started the the old season like 5 times
Any one wana iron horse normal raid?
what else is there besides ''normal''
use #lfg-raid-pc
only other difficulty is 'discovery' (which isn't really worth running)
But it's useful if learning how the raid works and how to get familiar with it, no?
nope
not really, as you don't learn any of the more complex (and necessary) mechanics
since major mechanics are not existent
it's useful for learning why matchmaking for 'Normal' doesn't exist
wouldnt be a problem these days...always someone who would ''teach''
So even if a new player isn't familiar how DH works, it's significantly much better to LFG on normal and just run that way regardless?
both raids are not difficult....the ''how to'' and mechanics can be for some, but learning the ''layout'' etc can be done in normal...without getting sugarcoated by discovery mode
Hey guys, I’m a returning Division 2 player, who haven’t been playing the game for almost 3 years. I’ve been wondering how people get a gear score of 1000 or 2000 these days. The last time I played, the latest content was the college, zoo & lab mission. And back then people were still playing the Eagle Bearer’s raid (and I think the average GS is around 500/600-ish).
So how do people get a GS of 1000-2000 these days? Is it because they already finished WONY and the gears they have is around 1000 GS?
Another question, once we hit level 40 in WONY, finish all the missions there, and return to DC, how about the content and loot in DC?
Will Hard/Heroic mission or Control Point drops loot for level 40 (or loots with GS corresponding to level 40++)?
Thanks!
They dont get a gearscore, actually. Max gearscore is still 515 as it was back then, but when you get the DLC your GS is removed and replaced with an extra 10 levels and then the SHD watch, which provides small buffs every level and extra materials every couple levels.
When you hit level 40 in Warlords, DC will drop level appropriate gear. Farming in DC is still fine.
gearscore was removed ...(Best decision ever) and a Paragton style lvlup was implemented
Ahh I see. So loots in DC will no longer have gear score then.
once started wony.,,,,you wont have gS
Loot in DC will not have gearscore, because gearscore is irrelevant as soon as you step foot in NYC.
only way to have gs in 2022...is if you dont puchase wony
Loot in DC, NYC, and all the offsite missions wont have gearscore, because your stuff will just be your level.
Okay. I guess it’s better than the GS system isn’t it?
of course ....each GS system is nuts
One more question, right now I still have plenty of side missions which I haven’t completed yet, and I’m already at World Tier 1. If I go up to WT5 by finishing Tidal Basin & also the additional missions (college, zoo etc), then I go to NY and hit level 40 then, will I still be able to finish the side missions in DC?
I'd do the side missions before, personally.
You can go back and do them (if you dont skip) but you might as well do them before.
Okay. I didn’t skip to level 30 by using the boost. I just started a new char on PC last week (3 years ago I was playing on PS). I have a friend who tried Division for the first time and he realized that he really enjoys it
technically you still have gearscore (most people are around 920-925) if you inspect yourself (or others) on any leaderboard
I was just thinking of using the XP from the side mission to increase my watch/SHD level 😅
Yes, but it means nothing and is hidden through normal means.
What the absolute living **** is wrong with polarity and NPCs?!?!?!?!
?
polarity works fine here, done all the objectives, some are just time consuming
max rank since last tuesday^^
I've done tons of seasons just something super odd with NPC behavior
be glad it doesnt shock yourself anymore xD
a bit hyped for HB and golden bullet
By the way, is Eagle Bearer still considered a strong AR? Back in 2019, just before the summer, it was quite powerful and hard to get
sadly not the Hyped gun it once was
back then p416 was very good also
Ok. So many things have changed ey
And now we have a season system as well
between the exotic rebalances and other guns coming out, EB has fallen a bit.
yeah....p416 days were sick
I didn’t even think the Division would have that
or NEGEV times
police m4 is very stable AR if you are looking for that, famas fast shooter easy to waste ammo, tons of good options,what matters is the rolls/perks on them
armor regen in cover was also op early div2
or when sweet dreams had other perk...and was a must have for lmg users
there was that roll to reload thing for lmg wasnt it? was some build around that
...btw...just got a 1886 godrolled with rifleman out of a proficiancy chest^^
exactly
all lmg dps users just rolled on the spot while in cover
Do you have to be in a clan to access the bounty vendor in the white house?
what is a bounty vendor ?
I have no idea. I talked to some dude, unlocked bounties, but when I try to find it in the white house, the tracking just disappears
Ah so the icon in the white house next to east executive ave nw is pointless?
to get more bountys....just do hostage rescue on the difficulty you want a bounty...as reward for the rescue...a bounty drops
its a map displayed......but since you can access it via dpad+R1,...its utter useless
like the projects manager
in the whitehouse or other settlements
That makes way more sense. I was trying to track it like an idiot since there isn't even an interface in the wh
Last dumb questions for today.
Does stability do anything special on marksman rifles or am I correct in assuming it only affects follow up shots?
Is it better to prioritize chd, chc, or accuracy on them?
Stability is weapon kick, Accuracy is reticule bloom.
So it's not exactly amazing on Marksman Rifles unless you're trying to rapid-fire.
Perfect. Makes a lot of sense now. Thanks! Is a headshot considered a crit for the purpose of benefiting from chd?
I am playing on PC, with the Ubisoft+ subscription. I have the year 1 pass & deluxe edition from the subscription. I got the Lv 1 Ruthless exotic from the mailbox/special delivery, but I didn’t get/cannot find the Lullaby. Is there any way to get it/craft it?
And does Lullaby occupy the same spot on the wall as the Sweet Dreams?
nope
lullaby and ruthless ( skins for sweet dreams and merciless)
i think lullaby was preorder or ultimate edition
they each have their own spot on the wall
Hmm okay
A headshot is a headshot, a crit is a crit. Your headshots can crit, but they are not innately crits.
is skill efficiency just weapon handling but for skills?
Yeah
so damage/haste/duration?
Aye
Blue Prints for new weapons aren't out? I was hoping to reroll my new exotics
nope, not yet
😭
Hey Aspect and memes
just finished the warlords dlc and ready for endgame. what should i be doing as of now?
Making a starter build, doing the weekly invasions, getting to challenging difficulty asap, leveling shd watch
Filling up the recal library, exotic hunting, theres a lot
sounds good! thank you!
oh btw- dont use youtuber builds and the like
Whats the best way to get the nade kills for the polarity event?
wait until week 2 so you dont have to do it, for me
if you need to get nade kills, normal difficulty, foam an enemy then throw a nade at em
art turret
They count for that?
yeah
Interesting
spec gren launcher too
Was there not a way to increase the radius of blast radius on them?
Or is that just the incendiary grenades?
Forgot but do CP give you the skill points in spec more into them or is that just doing missions?
Efficiency is Skill damage, haste, repair, duration, health, and Status effect with 1:1 ratio
How long does the main campaign take to beat
Well there goes my informations
Without side missions and doing side stuff like 3-4 hours
anyone know why the bosses drop 0 loot whilst floor 10 farming on legendary
Stability also affects how quickly you zoom in with a scope, so it's useful for 'snap-shotting'. It's a relatively minor difference though, only becomes really noticeable when you have a huge handling buff from something like golden bullet
Stability should also affect recoil, no? The higher the stability, the less recoil it should feel after shooting an MMR
Yes, but that was already noted in the question I was responding to
Boss never drop loot more than once
Oh interesting. Just the zoom in or does it affect the reticile centering while zooming out of cover too?
I think both, although tbf one of them could be accuracy
Sounds good! I just wasn't sure how to mod my m700 carbon
Best way to find Rouge Agents for the Ridgeway's Pride Assignment ?
Control points
Heroic missions too, although rogue agent encounters are random
I think you can get em on Challenging as well
Pretty damn sure they need to be floor 100 hunters @boreal crown
you need both rogues and hunters, hes asking for rogues
and for the hunter part it can be either open world ones, the floor 100 hunters , or the hunter in the schaeffer manhunt mission
i see
hello. I needed to know what is the best controller for pc to play the game to pay from amazon
ur on pc and are willing to play with controller ???
I'll do some control points first, does there need to be a certain number on ther point or difficulty in the world @humble frigate ?
yes
i am a lazy boy
So out of curiosity, is there a wrong way to play this game? Some games get really, really hard if you level up without doing some specific stuff. I'm just sorta...wandering. Doing my own thing. Having a lot of fun (when its not Delta 3 anyway). Just wondering if I'm going to somehow screw myself
thats wild....
dont play on hard or lower difficulty for long.....
Oh. Should I not be going through the story on whatever the default setting is?
i meant like when you are lvl 40 and start to get better gear etc
if you stay on hard for to long, the transition to heroic can be fun killing
Ah, that makes sense 😛 I'll of course plan to push to harder stuff as I get better gear. I'm only level 11 right now, just sorta been wandering around and doing whatever
Ahh ok...just play the game and use whatever weapon u like
How does being on hard longer become an issue though? Is farming better stuff before moving up a difficulty tier bad?
Heroic has the most loot, idk if it affects rogue encounter rates
thats the cool thing about leveling....some more like Grade C- weapons are really good in the lower levels
Speaking of hunters, I read that they basically disable your skills? Doesn't that sorta kill yellow builds later on? Or are there workarounds? Or did I understand it wrong maybe?
difficulty increase between hard and heroic is quite good...and many players loosing interest in game
yeah they can hack any skill you ''deploy'' or silence you completly to use them
So I guess using turret/drone like I am right now is not a good idea 😛
so turrets drone...hive..will be used against you
But they can't hack your nades, especially the foam nades
Not going to lie, I forgot I had grenades in this game.
or shocktraps
good ones are the survivalist ones
It's a hunter's worst nightmare to get CC'd and rushed by facetankers wielding Scorpios
or gunner grenade
Gunner is the armor regen minigun specialty?
yeah faster reload ...get ammo constantly...etc etc
I personally like Gunner for its AoK, and the minigun is a bonus
Makes me feel like a cheap version of the T-1000
survivalists Xbow might be the allround spec weapon ...even if no one using it really
I was thinking about doing the one that has that special hive regen thing, I just want to be super tanky. But gunner was up there too...mostly because minigun ❤️
penetrates armor....dots...burn+explosion
Oh but everyone should. It cracks those chungus armour very well
Not that I need to worry about it for another 19 levels
I bought the "hidden alliance season pass", where do I go to check it out?
under seasons Rewards and ranks
and where can that be found?
big tab next to your inventory...above progression
thank you, much appreciated
What WONY missions Can you find named Cleaners ?
Stranded tankers
but i would just do bounties
what for exactly?
Need one more for the Ridgeway's Pride Assignment
just do a bounty
Cool, another question is should I change my difficulty from normal to hard or challenging ?
...you play on normal ( world difficulty) when not farming ressources ?
you get bountys as reward from public executions...and the bountys difficulty will be the difficulty you did the public execution....so if you do a PE on heroic...you get a heroic bounty
cool, didnt know that
and you dont have to do that bounty right after you get it...you can abort them...and by that collect some...i think i have like 25 heroic bountys in DC^^
Is there a way to keep Floor 10 after farming it?
If that’s your highest checkpoint, just do the farm as usual. When you go to the lobby, just go back to DC or NY. The game keeps the highest checkpoint saved for you.
but after finishing the 1st Division on the 10th Floor farm, it sends me to Floor 11
If you clear the floor once, you can't leave and come back to it. You have to stay on the floor.
Is the level 30 boost a one time consumable or can you use it on multiple characters?
Multiple
Guys need help im in the weekly mission just me and a friend and we are stuck in the last part can someone help ? D: please
anyone know what's a decent way to farm for shd levels? or nay
will Ubi recalculate Expertise level on behalf of the amount of Proficient Items as pr. days date ?
If I wanted to get Rock n Rock shotgun, is it only via DZ and Named caches? Could I target shotgun for a chance?
Only DZ and named caches. I don't think you could target loot it in Summit or Countdown because it's DZ exclusive
PvP, essentially 😂
i got mine from 4min of farming dz last week^^
just farm the events....72 named chests now and no Orbit....
Ah, the good old RNG at its finest 
but i got 4 Gifts and 3 Hollow man^^
but never the one i want^^
It's always the ones you don't need, huh? You never get the ones you want 😂
can eagle bearer be acquired through discovery, i just finished a run on it but the gate to the room with the box didn’t open
nope
all Raid Exotics are only in normal mode available
i gotcha
just got back into the loop so i forgot a few things
i remember the raid, only hard part rn is getting a team lol
Anyone else get the glitch in Countdown where you can get infinite mobs after completing Administration? 😂
Happened 2 times now where we finished the objective but mobs kept coming out
Don't know how it happens though
I think I had something similar to this, but it was in the turbine room for me 😂
any of you guys use the banshee pulse?
It's my gamer tool along with foam on my now-relatively-bad striker build
Despite its lack of vertical control, I quite like it
I am testing it out now. It is pretty fun in open world roaming around
I didnt know you could charge it
anyone use the pyromaniac?
I was thinking of trying to make some pvp build with it being the focus
it definitely isn't optimal but what's the fun in doing the same thing all the time
Hey if I play with two new players through some missions at the same time. Does it count as two players in my referral thing? The rewards are so cool
Is everyone only ever doing summit now or should I bump up the world difficulty to heroic? Sometimes I don't match up with anyone on replayable missions and I'm not sure if it's because it's on challenging or something
Heroic has the most people generally
Challenging has a decent amount to, guess it also depends on when you're matchmaking
But yeah missions aren't exactly what everyone is farming now
Mostly Countdown and Summit
Countdown has instant matchmaking but you'll be playing across the globe 🤡
Ohh okay. Haven't been to Summit yet tbh but it seems like fun!
I should try and dabble with heroic world difficulty just to get a feel for how harder it is
Give it a try. The NPC aggression was definitely noticeable for me.
I think I finally should haha. I can hold my own pretty well on challenging missions and free roam. I like to practice discipline and be a bit strategic about who to take out in what order
Heroic sounds like it'd be another welcome challenge
If anything Summit is worth it also for EXP and to get the Capacitor, it was the first thing i did when i finished the DLC
Whats the best way to get exotics without the dlc? bc everything i seem to watch is focused on the warlords and tbh idk if its worth buying
is there anyway to get the system corruption gear piece's by target farming? I don't see it on the open world map or summit target loot list
bounty's do sometimes grant exotic's on there completion, or if your looking for a specific type of exotic, target farm the kind of weapon they are
ex: chameleon - target farm AR's
SC gearset is tied to dz/conflict, only way of getting it is there and legacy caches
Thanks
What IRL weapon is the Nemesis based off of?
a couple, if i remember correctly
According to the fandom wiki it resembles an "Accuracy International Arctic Warfare in an AICS 2.0 pistol grip chassis with an AX50 stock."
To how valid that claim is, i'm not too sure.
It's worth buying tho (if you like the base game that is)
Good morning Aspect
You can do SC by doing random crafting, then decom the SC pieces you do not want for SC crafting
thats how i got my yaahl and SC kit
outside Hollowman's and stuff
or if you really hate extraction, just get the DZ credits from boxes every day, buy from DZ vendors
extraction takes too long for the loot
hey, so I just downloaded the game, went to reddit to see some guides on basic tips and 'not TO-DOs' but i found my self overwhelmed with guides and content
can anyone link me to a more simple guide, or recommend on what should i read/watch first?
just play the game normally
dont spend too much time/resources upgrading your equipment until you reached lv30/lv40
most of the content is about end-game
Anyone knows how to farm ironwork base materials?
you need to do more IH raids
thanks
But it has weekly caps right?
should be
@jaunty dust I only got 15 for one week…it gona take forever….
@jaunty dust will try…thx
@mellow scaffold do one set first turn it in and it will dump enough for the other set
is there a ps5 version of this game? or is it just backward compatible?
Backward compatible
The Daikyu.
Oh right, you said IRL. No idea.
Hey guys. Just a short and quick question.
Can we donate now without any worries after the patch?
My Expertise level rolled back to 2 from 4.. is it me or am I missing something after the patch?
did the invaded missions not change ?
So I just died trying to get one of the hunters masks, it’s the one with the lion statues. My question is, do I need to collect all the lion eyes again, or just restart the turning of the lion statues when it’s dark again?
You have to collect the lion eyes again, then go thru the entire process of realigning the statues again from my experience @little dagger
afaik, you can do it any time of the day
Thank you
It's the custom L96. I think so. Edit: Nvm, just saw answer from Aspect. 
Or AWP, you call
the "not being able to speak with Kelso" bug seems to still be in game? Any options to get past it?
Tried to log out and come back - and know I don't have the 2nd key. Cool
does hunters fury mark count as a status effect?
Nah, the mark itself is a debuff, which isn't a status effect as I've known here @feral wren
But when you kill one with a mark, it spreads disorientation which is the status effect.
Ok thank you.
Trying to figure out what talent to use on my SMG with hunters fury
I have the CMMG Banshee with vindictive
Personally, I use an MPX with Strained. I don't think the disorientation lasts long enough for me to kill with Vindictive, per se
I am using scorpio for the shotty so I need a non exotic
Yeah, that's a good start. You already have that CMMG so you could give it a try. If the status effect is too short, you can pair it with CC nades or skills, or use a non-Vindictive talent if possible
But I completely forgot you have the Scorpio, so it's totally fine, really 😂
It's okay, but MPX or CMMG hits harder, I think. Many here would say they're top tier SMGs at the moment.
Not saying Cold Relations is trash tier though. I still use it once in a while for shenanigans and it's fun.
Morning Zephyr
No prob. You can always ask in #td2-build-advice for more info
Also, good afternoon @fallow inlet from where I am 😂
Ya I am unsure sometimes where to ask some thing this channel or build advise lol
A quick question in the wrong place is generally fine, but a full convo about a build should go to the right spot.
ok
Is there any point to grinding gear or levels before purchasing WoNY or should I just wait until I can get it?
I would say wait. Because all that gear will be replaced right after you get the DLC. But I guess that depends on how long before you get it maybe.
I mean you can max out your character level beforehand though
Get wony because all your gear will be worthless until you get lvl 40 and flip to shd
Ah gotcha. Yeah just have to wait for a ps sale right now. It'll be a few weeks. Appreciate the info
ironwwork base material only drop from the final crate?
Did anyone experienced a problem when you lost Expertise points on the weapons after todays update?
a few people have reported that weapons that had been 'rolled back' (reduced to their new lower expertise level) subsequently lost ALL upgrades after playing for a bit.
Now that is something to worry about
I still haven't upgraded anything (too many items still to gain proficiency with first) so can't test anything, but it all sounds a bit buggy. There's also apparently an INCREASED damage glitch relating to upgraded items.
Is there a way to inspect the proficiency level on the weapon without visiting the Base of Operations?
it's on the weapon itself, yeah
Afternoon Kettle
hey saph
is donate junk still broken?
the patch was supposed to fix it. I never had much of an issue to begin with so I can't say if it's fixed or not
still not workin gfo rmyslef
Does carbine 7 always drop with the talent overflowing and nothing else?
Correct.
So if you want to swap the Talent to something good, you'll have to spend the time to farm out a decent 3rd Attribute instead.
IIRC there's one with dtooc (ideal 3rd Attribute) at the White House right now.
Is it possible to optimize all three attributes though?
Yep, although I'd probably suggest trying to farm out a near god-roll with dtooc instead.
Far cheaper in the long run.
Thanks
What’s the best way to farm season level •_•
is there any known fix for the random crashes that happen way more often than they should
just crashed as soon as the bounty target spawned in
So later on in the game when Hunters start appearing, am I going to have to abandon my turret/drone build?
yep, they can hack them and essentially make them useless
but you generally know when hunters spawn in and where
Turret can still bu used just stay close so you can pick it up if its about to get hacked,drone is risky
Hi guys, is the 2x XP Multiplier permanent while it's active, or there's a bar to "waste" the double XP?
Any way to change the actual gear skins/color? (Not rarity)
My second Faye Lau key disappeared, does anyone know how to fix it?
You played conflict didn’t you?
Hey, I attempted psycho/drip mask last night, and I haven't been able to re-attempt it (one despawned), even though I've tried multiple times after the past 24h... am I missing something? Do I have to join on someone else to do it? (It's been 24h since my first attempt, and the parts of the puzzle don't show up anymore)
anyone know roughly when the next potential sale for wony is gonna be?
is Matador still DZ Exclusive?
yes
They had sales
02/16 -03/03
03/30 - 04/14
05/11 - 05/26
So the next one will probably hit June 22nd of they keep up the pattern
hey is there a quick way to donate expertise gear? the donate all junk from the main menu doesnt work
going in individually is giving me aids.
It does work, there's just no super obvious visual indicator. When you actually level up an item, you will see the number on the left change, though.
you're absolutely right, i was just expecting a notification. all my stuff was donated. thanks
no its not i got 2 from LZ and Summit
cool
so is it exclusive or is it not
guess not ¯_(ツ)_/¯
he might have got them from season reward tracks for the last season rerun but idk
heard yaahl was dropping in LZ too
I usually do it once twice or sometimes thrice, by then it should be gone
just takes a few tries
it's kinda like updating a loadout, unless that's just me
if I screwed up and accidentally moved up to floor 11, can I "fix" this by just going to floor 20 and farming that instead?
Yes
question about the last part of regulus farm. do I hve to wait for another week to complete it ?
People say Floor 10 is easiest but literally any floor that has 1 boss is perfectly fine for the farm. You're better off just resetting the checkpoint and going from 1-10 though since you can re-do the challenges, which give good XP.
I saw people saying they can't speak with Kelso to move the mission - got it too after second target - is there a way to fix this without replaying the manhunt? (and will replaying help if not?)
The attachments at the crafting table say purchasable from vendor, what is this referring to?
I heard quitting/restarting the game is supposed to help
Probably Inaya, the lady at the crafting table
My scorpio is expertise 15 and they rollback to 11 but i dont see any exotic component when rollback
@paper elk they will give the materials later this week.
PvPers, what is the best way to strafe?
I was farming DZ and named boses didn`t drop targeted loot. A new bug or known problem?
Anyone with same issues?
you checked?
I might have had the same thing too
I farmed dz South a few days ago for ages and didn't yield any yaahl, let alone gloves because it was gloves targeted loot
Is summit the best way to farm season levels?
heroic, 3-5 directives farming resource convoys
everything else compared to convoy farming yields nothing
Oh okay, thanks
actually, these days summit floor 10 spam is faster. Convoys still more interesting & varied though.
should I farm them in legendary? or the difficulty is irrelevant?
Challenging/Heroic. Heroic is better XP, obviously. Legendary if you have a cracked group on 1000mg Adderall
with directives too?
Yes, people usually run 9. All except for Cool Skills. Reason being that the best solo strategy is going Eclipse Protocol and using both the Fire Sticky and Firestarter
Can also go 10 if you have other strats
Hey, just started playing this past week. I am really starting to enjoy it. Anyways, I have the base game, I know it will take me a while to get through it, but do I need the expansions, or any other DLC? I am not sure where to go from here.
Something like this: https://streamable.com/3wx5kq
Although this guy taking 10 years to line up a headshot hurts me a little
if you're enjoying it by the time you finish the base story, get the WONY dlc
Sounds good. I see epic games has the expansion on sale right now for $9. I may pick it up for that price. Thanks
really? cuz this is about levels, not loot
yeah, the way floor 10 is run theese days it's much faster (but much more repetitive)
for xp, not loot
I'm going by what everyone's saying these days, I'm not an expert myself (never felt the drive to farm)
but apparently you can run the floor in <30s if you REALLY know what you're doing, get the 'floor complete' xp, then down yourself to reset it without actually leaving the floor
rinse and repeat endlessly
convoys are roughly the same, just less effort and worse loot
I've only heard floor 10 is good for god roll loot like mods
that's not what everyone is saying these days
it used to be always convoys, but the last few weeks it's shifted to floor 10 (although the tactics have been around for a year or more, just less well known)
check #lfg-pc, see how many floor 10 farms are being listed
convoys give way less xp now, its not worth running them
gives around 350k
floor 10 gives around 900k xp on legendary with most directives, loot is meh. but there is also a floor 10 loot farm you can do but you dont get that juicy xp so countdown is better than the old loot farm
convoys still gaive the same xp as tehy always did, its just that floor 10 is now well known and people are getting decent at it
Does someone know if the sturdy extended mag for 7.62 ammo can drop from control points? Some old posts on reddit say it is/was locked behind weekly projects
7.62 sturdy mag is main pool, so yes it can drop from control points, projects aswell that grant a blueprint and any other source that gives a random blueprint as reward. its just rng so may take a long while to get, or might be your next one
if you want to check otehr ones for yourself in the future, go to build advice channel and go to the spreadsheet in the pinned tab there, it has a weapon mods panel that has all the sources for all the weapon mods
Thank you! Good to know! :). Yeah I'm farming control points for a few days now but since I'm new I have so many blueprints to unlock but no luck so far on the mag :(
how come it still works for me?
control points also good to farm those recon points
If I find an exotic on a level 30 and later pick up WoNY, will that exotic level up with me on my way to 40 or will I need to regrind the exotic (with regard to nemesis)?
once lvl 40 you can use the reconfigure blueprint that you can get for exotics to bring them up to lvl 40, this will cost a exotic component and will reroll the item
Good to know. Really appreciate the info
Is there some information about how the apparel event works? regards 🙂
Assumin it works like the old ones, every couple of levels gives a event cache key that you use for one event apparel part
@true siren its my first time, is it right that i need 24 keys and every leveling up i might get a apparel key?
you never get duplicate parts, so it just takes a fixed number of levels to get everything
in the past it was 1 key every four levels for reference
Its however many items in the event, the event keys come every few levels
I just wonder when i play missions and so on are there some changes like global events or is it normal?
it occurs to me now that players with limited time would do well to leave taking advantage of the 'double-xp week' until tomorrow
no global events this week, the next one is a couple of weeks away (check the seasons menu ingame to see when)
@nimble spruce OK, so no changes , only leveling up i understand. But the total amount to get all the new gear is not 24 , it might be less or more ( keys)?
yeah, depends on the exact number of new apparel items. We'll find out tomorrow.
thanks 🙂
When i want to use the new gear, i do have a lot of smg weapons what gear set do you recomend @nimble spruce
for smgs, Hunters Fury is generally the best choice - check the pinned messages in #td2-build-advice for the spreadsheet link by Azurmen, there are lots of good build guides in there (including Hunters Fury)
Sorry for asking but apparel cache rewards what are they and how can i use them?
properly
@nimble spruce
open your inventory, move one step to the left to see your apparel loadout. They give you more options in there
I will check later, how long are you online? @nimble spruce
not shure if i understand
I'm about to go eat, but any people here can answer these questions. When I say 'go one step to the left', I just mean press i to open inventory then q to move a tab left
Apparel events only give new clothes, not new armor. Apparel is in the apparel tab, one tab to the left of the inventory.
Hello ok, i will try - thanks to @nimble spruce and @true siren .
i dont know what you'll try but good luck
thanks 🙂
@true siren So when i get into the game i have one inventory and i should get one apparel tab too, i have pc and use controller, just to inform, is it possible that the apparel tab wont be possible to check before the event is online?
you can see the apparel tab at any time, but the event keys & event clothes wont be there until the event opens
also no need to ping, i'm here and active
ok, i contact you when i have checked 🙂 thanks
no need to "contact me", just ask your questions here if you have them
ok
So I just reinstalled Division 2 after a long break. I leveled to 30 last time I played and didnt do much after that. Now Im giving the game a chance again and everything feels a bit overwhelming with gear stats, expertise ect. Where should I start? Should I go to NY or stay in DC doing stuff here first?
I have a bunch of things to do on the map here in DC
@whole grove Go to New York, enjoy the story and get to level 40. Once you're at level 40 the game opens up and you can begin to make builds, farm for gear, and get up the difficulty ladder.
If I get to 40 will the DC area still be valueable to do? like bounties and stuff... and all the missions I have left 🙂
Hey all. Where can I find the Dark Winter?
Ok, im playing the expansion 🙂
Have fun!
Let's go! Enjoy it, my dude!
Thanks guys 🙂
Is it worth to go back to DC after you complete the expansion? I mean, do you like get level 40 stuff there then instead of 30 stuff?
Yeah, once you reach level 40 and finish WONY, you get level 40 stuff everywhere
^^ the only place that is not worth it to go to is the year 1 pass "secret" missions
WONY is the DLC, warlords of new york
Ahh, nice
Lucky I asked you guys about this, or else I would be playing with lvl 30 gear now 😄
Double xp
Named caches, or dz
oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ok
Afternoon Aspect and Danii and Zephyr
There is a orange bar to the left of where my ammo is shown, what is that?
That's Signature Ammo build up.
Special ammo bar. Once full, it drops special ammo
Yup
Ohhh, I see. Thanks
🤙
I got some special revolver I think I got from my speciality... Its in my inventory but I cant equip it? What am I missing here?
Geez, it does 284k damage!
what level is it for
Respec the gun in the speciality, just don’t do the final upgrade.
Can also just wait for 40. Easier.
Any general tip for a n00b like myself? 🙂 Tips and tricks thats not obvious in the game.
Hello i wonder what fairview crew means, poster with mask and it looks like a cleaner guy, bad guy?
I understood the apparel event but...
Fixing a bug in a game isn't really like flipping a switch, I'm sure they're working on it as hard as they can.
@nimble spruce Hello i wonder what fairview crew means, poster with mask and it looks like a cleaner guy, bad guy?
I'll make sure I go tell Mr Ubisoft about that.
Seńor Ubisoft
El' uPlay.
usually "crew" in div lore means some kind of enemy NPC group.
So "fairview crew" might literally just be a mixed faction group of NPCs.
The maintenance at least made countdown playable for me, but I still have at least one person disconnecting every countdown
Sometimes that person is me 
So we Will get other enemies than the regular ones while event is active? @inner tendon
Nope. Same enemies as always.
Yeah I mean in more of a lore capacity.
Like in Summit when there's mixed faction floors that are working together.
This will be my very first apparel event. So those new drip will need specific apparel keys dropped during the event only, right?
The apparel event is a relatively small event. The only difference to normal gameplay is a new apparel event key being given to you every 4 levels.
There are no dupicates in the event caches, so you'll get them all in the number of items there are.
Lore capacity? @inner tendon
Sorry, lore nerd.
Like, not in direct gameplay, but in the story.
Previous apparel events have been outfits of (former) agents, among other things
Hmmm i am a bit excited and curious, and maybe nervos, but i hope it will be fun to play. Just leveling up seams too easy
its a small event. Nothing major, just new clothes.
It's literally just levelling up, think of it less like an Event and more like a limited-time way to get more stuff for doing regular play.
It'll be pretty much the normal game, just with every few levels giving you some new pants or something.
I just mean its a bit frustrating when its like that, we have waited like 2-3 weeks it has to be more interessting and challenging. Since ubi has postponed several times
They were making a sarcastic joke not asking for you to complain about shit more
its really just the normal game with extra clothes. I know they've delayed it but unless something drastic changes its gonna be the same as the other apparel events
Hmmm so you are pretty shure it will be the same like the older ones, it will be my first time from tomorrow:)
If it's any different, I will delete my godrolled HSD mod that I got yesterday from a challenging Hyena activity.
Still no idea how that worked out.
HSD?
HSD= Headshot damage.
this Server really likes its acronyms.
Ohja
So you gys do not exacly know if there are any changes to the apparel event tomorrow?
MSV (the devs) like to keep things close to the vest.
However, assuming it's like every single other Apparel event that's ever been in div2's history: it's not gameplay. Just earning the Keys via levelling.
Massive. Developers of the game.
:)
Commonly reffered to here as "MSV"
Ok
Dude you are literally talking to yourself, there aren’t any devs here listening to you, it’s just mindless complaining about shit they are working on fixing. It’s a video game move on don’t let a bug in a game you’ll barely remember in 4 years ruin your day
Okay now, tone it down a little.
We're all just people here.
Except for me, I'm a robot.
I just got so excited of the poster to take down cleaners that looked like on the fairview crew poster;) ?? What were you thinking when you first time saw the poster?
@true siren
Hilarious to see how things are handled here..
huh

Ok, :)
Is the whole world wiped out in this game?
Damn
You should listen to the cutscenes
Can you switch gear between characters? Is it worth having more than one char? In Destiny you could have 3 chars and switch gear between them, anything similar in this?
you have a shared stash (excluding hardcore characters) and you share shd levels
so there's a few reasons to run more characters (you can spend the extra shd scavenging points on materials, you can get additional raid keys/loot per week, do the weekly exotic projects, etc)
a Division Item Manager would be pretty great, but I doubt anything like that would ever exist in div2.
I see, thanks
Are the raids hard? Can you do them with a pick up group? Do you need to read tactics somewhere before?
Is Technician glitched? I am on the last thing and just spent 4 hours running missions but gave no reward.
"Complete any invaded stronghold mission 0/1" is what it says even after completing Tital Basin Invaded Stronghold and kill the shit out of Wyvern it didn't give me it what am I missing?
they arent hard as much as they are mechanically intensive for a first timer. If you dont know what you are doing, probably a good idea to go read up on the encounters to get a basic idea of whats up. PC has an easier time finding groups but i've seen PS4 groups in the discord.
double-check the difficulty (it generally specifies not story mode), and try whichever stronghold it was you needed to unlock Tidal Basin (I think Manning Zoo this week)
Is Tidal Basin an invaded stronghold?
not sure if tidal basin counts as it's always 'invaded'
Did Manning Zoo on Normal, did Tital Basin on Normal
So it def wasn't story cause usually they don't give you reward for story difficulty
So what do I do if Zoo and Tital didn't work?
I guess wait a week and hope you get one of the original three strongholds (Roosevelt, Capitol or DUA) invaded?
or re-read the task description, according to google it needs to be 'Hard' or higher
I can't like make them an invaded mission myself?
you can only toggle missions between invaded and non-invaded if they're part of the current week's invasion (so only Zoo for the strongholds this week)
I'd suggest going back to the Zoo, using 'toggle mission mode' on the difficulty menu to make it invaded again (it'll have turned back to normal after you completed it) then setting it to Hard or higher
Yeah that is what I am doing now I had to go back to whitehouse and use my specalization vendor to see the hard or higher lol really wish it showed on screen when I was tracking the mission
Haha damn, Hardcore mode seems brutal. Specially in DZ
Just a Quick Question. Is it possible to have the "Vile" mask drop in current season?
yup, just target loot masks (or exotic caches) for your best chance
generally you just dont go into DZ on a HC character.
What does weapon handling mean/do
each point of weapon handling is directly translated to 1 point of:
accuracy
stability
reload speed
weapon swap
so say you have 10 points of it from somewhere, you would gain 10 points in each of those categories
Is conflict still broken?
believe so, they didnt give a eta for the fix yet
I did play conflict for a day or two but i am not shure if i got effected of the issue what should i do? And how do you know if something went wrong?
have you upgraded any of your gear using the expertise system (not levelled, but actually upgraded for extra damage/armor)?
Hmmm maybe, just a minute i check, so if its lower than 4 % armor i need to contact ubi?
I have found some "Gear System Mods" that give different bonuses but I cant seem to equip them? Im presuming it goes into some slot on your armor?
gear system mods fit in every gear slot ( armor)
When I look at them they only have appearance and dye slots, am I just lacking the right armour?
what color is your armor
if armor doesnt have a mod slot then you cant put in a mod^^
@nimble spruce i was on 4 but now i am two. I used a lot of materials so what should i do?
@dusky wolf True 😛
you were rolled back, not effected by the conflict bug
just dont play conflict in the next few days.
Ok. I hope thats right sounds reasonable. If it was zero then i might been effected?
the rollback happened a few days ago because getting proficient in a gear piece got you more XP towards your expertise level than what you were supposed to get, leading to much higher that expected expertise levels.
If you play conflict, your expertise level is reset. Yours wasnt reset, just rolled back to what it should be.
Ok. , Thanks. I just thought expertise level how do i gain more expertise? I got so happy when i was on four but nevermind, no stress. I just need to know by upgrading ekstra armor, damage from exspertise you get stronger when you fight enemies or in DZ, pvp, pve right
i have no idea what the last half of that sentence means but you get more expertise levels by using more weapons and armor
? So i need to get proficency on all weapons and gear to get more expertise? So if i use only one gear and one weapons i wont get higher expertise even all is proficent? By upgrading ekstra armor damage from exspertise you get stronger like 2 % ekstra armor?
correct
thank you kettle
the issue with conflict was that people's upgraded items were being reset to 0, not their expertise level (as far as I understood it, anyway)
If I have the division 2 on Xbox connected to my Ubisoft connect, would the progress sync if I were to buy it on PC on the Ubisoft store?
i'm also sorta out of the loop for that bug as well, so i'm just repeating what someone said to me.
no.
no crossplay and no cross save in division 2
Do I need the year 1 pass in order to get Technician, Gunner and Firewall? Or are they unlockable later without it?
you can unlock them by doing the field research, no year 1 pass required
the pass just lets you skip the research
Okay whew, I thought they locked things behind DLC. How do I do the research? I'm only level 18
i mean they did lock things behind the dlc, but the specialisations you can get without it
you don't unlock specialisations until level 30 (and completed the main story), so you won't get it until then
What other things were locked behind DLC?
Makes sense, tyvm!
Hmmm so if you got 8 gear sets and 20weapons you get a higher expertise than i do beacuse i only have 2 gear sets and 5 weapons?
about half the exotics now, good number of gearsets, another entire mini campaign
Which DLC do I need to get all of that?
warlords of new york
Oh I have that
well then there you go
I was looking at the Year 1 DLC
the WONY dlc is basically required for almost everything added since it was released - not just the whole new area/missions, but summit, seasons, countdown, etc etc
and the Hidden Alliance DLC
Cool cool, I did get that one so I'm a little relieved lol
the only think you are """missing""" from that is the "secret" side missions, and those just give backpack charms
Hidden Alliance is just the name of the current season, you're just looking at the season pass (a few new skins, extra faction keys & stuff, nothing truly important)
and are only really ever played once
Awesome, thank you both very much
Eh?
the more weapons you become proficient with the higher your expertise level
And gear right?
Where do you get the System Corruption set ?
and gear, yes
DZ and season caches.
Dang, what are the chances of it dropping in the DZ or Caches ?
Low.
Put it this way, it's a good thing the gearset isn't really worth farming out.
What does the set do when at 4+ pieces ?
