Is the apperal event today?

coral pagoda
#

btw, when farming for exotics do you just set targeted for the part and hope for the best? and do they drop in heroic as well or does it have to be legendary

cedar tide
#

Set target loot to the exotic you want then pray to the gods. I think difficulties slightly increase your odds of getting god rolled attributes and cores, but the odds of getting that targeted item (including the exos) from the loot pool is still based on randomness @coral pagoda

coral pagoda
#

wait you can target the specific exotic? or am i misunderstanding the first oart of your sentence

cedar tide
#

From my experience, yes. If you're looking for Coyote's mask, for example, you can target loot masks in Summit or Countdown or go to the open world and farm that area with targeted mask loot, and pray to the statues that one of your loot will be Coyote's, albeit very rare

coral pagoda
#

oh ic ic, i knew you could set it to a part, misunderstood what you said as that you could target the name

cedar tide
#

I think I'd personally say that I find an exotic gear or weapon (maybe) every 1 in 10 Countdown sessions or something, probably 1 in 12 from my grinds

#

But I have an abysmally horrendous luck that anyone shouldn't fathom at all

coral pagoda
#

i feel ya
desire sensor always seems to be at play somewhere

cedar tide
#

I find most often that you get the things that you want when you don't try to get em 😂

#

It's just Murphy's Law. What could happen will happen, and you would happen to get the things you want when you ironically don't target loot for them or sweat for them. It's plain RNG ultimately

Is it maintenance every tuesday?

#

Cause today is weekly reset right?

Usually maintenance on Tuesday, yes it is reset day

Looking to get a new XL mousepad; since I have over 3k hours in both div 1 and div 2 thought I would get something SHD based, but can't find any on the official merch store, any website recommendations?

#

anyone know if the devs acknowledged targeted loot not working in dz?

regal kelp
#

Does somebody know will ubisoft fix the weapon damage of specialization?
(When u rank up your weapon of specialization in expertise the base damage of all weapons ups too)

valid bronze
#

I haven’t gotten a single exotic in countdown yet

frail pier
valid bronze
#

I generally target farm brands or gearsets

#

From what I’ve seen exotics drop more when you target weapons or specific gear slot items

foggy needle
#

yup you need to target loot item slot or weapon type for exotics. they dont drop on brand/ gearset target. (or at least extremely rare)

#

hey when i joined the game there was a pop up saying i was granted by the division 2 team and to look in my deliverys or grants but both are empthy

#

i tried logging off an re opening the game but it didnt work

odd cave
#

Same here….
Message about compensation but delivery is empty…

rigid kraken
#

Did they decrease the number of activities/control points/bounties you need to do for manhunt targets?

tulip fiber
#

Compensation be some early apparel keys. Check to see if you have 4 keys already.

coral pagoda
#

if you recalibrate a croe stat does that mean you cant recalibrate the attribute stat anymore? or is it one recalibration per category

foggy needle
#

its 1 recalibration per item, but its endless for that 1 thing you change on said item.

trim verge
#

I still have no idea

foggy needle
#

Core stat for items are fix (listed on the spreadsheet). the minor secondary stats are weighted RNG (higher chance to match the color of the core stat but can roll any stat). also. no idea what "emet stuff " is

normal crest
#

have been trying to farm backfire for weeks now is it in some kind of drop pool ?

#

i have been targetting smg in summit

ivory sundial
#

It’s rng

foggy needle
#

its a normal exotic so farm SMG target loot. its just RNG.

RNGESUS WHY MUST YOU HATE ME SO MUCH

sterile cape
#

Was this ever implemented? Or have we heard any updates regarding this?

*While a Specialization and its Signature Weapon are tied, that would be no longer true for their mods, skill variants, and sidearms anymore. By sufficiently levelling up a Specialization, you will unlock these formerly Specialization-restricted specific items for use by other Specializations.

Want to use the Artificer Hive with the Mortar Turret while wielding the Survivalist D50? You will be able to do just that.*

Can you get duplicates in the Apparel Event ?

#

no

boreal crown
#

good to know

whole grove
#

Is there any way to see if I got a talent or not in my calibration library when I loot a item? You can see the rolls you have indicated by that little arrow on the stats should be able to do the same with talents.

#

Nevermind, after a bit of googling I found it :S

#

does repair skills help shield regen?

oak talon
#

no, repair doesnt affect the shield at all
you can use repair to increase the healing of an artificer hive to a shield

#

anyone know when grand washington hotel will be invaded been waiting like 5 weeks :l

foggy needle
#

It's RNG

#

Longest gap I've seen is 7 weeks between invaded.

radiant solar
#

:(

#

is there no other way of getting nemesis

foggy needle
#

Farm with someone who already has it and have them drop it for you when they get it.

#

Need to own at least the blueprint before you can solo farm it.

radiant solar
#

tried but cant find anyone to do it with

#

i just get ghosted when i ask lol

foggy needle
#

just got to wait for invaded hotel to come then.

#

😭

coral pagoda
#

how much do directives actually affect loot in the summit?

azure turtle
#

If I've killed all hunters how do I do Ridgeway's Pride project? The hunters Ive tried spawning dont spawn anymore (All Washington hunters)

oak talon
#

to have the schaeffer manhunt mission you need to be decently far into the season track

azure turtle
#

ah

#

Thank you. Im close enough for it to not be too long

foggy needle
#

also summit floor 100 hunters and maybe countdown?

dusky wolf
#

countdown wont count as such

azure turtle
#

Im not running 100 floors for 2 hunters, Ill be level 53 way before then

dusky wolf
#

you can just matchmake until you near 100 floor^^

foggy needle
#

^^^

azure turtle
#

I see that as a little rude IMO, joining a lobby and if they're not where I want them to be and leave

dusky wolf
#

its like not knowing where your friend exactly lives....and you knock on doors^^

#

whats rude about that

oak talon
#

how dare you try to be considerate on the internet, thats not allowed here, turn in your internet card 😛

#

but also just try and if you feel bad do 3 floor with em before leaving, also once you leave most likely the matchmaker will fill up your spot in seconds unless its way late

regal anchor
#

I’ve been calling for backup for 2 hours no one will join

#

This game is great

dusky wolf
#

yeah cause you are in the base game...we dont hear your backup

regal anchor
#

World tier 3 is considered base game?

#

Idfk

dusky wolf
#

we dont have worldtiers

oak talon
dusky wolf
regal anchor
oak talon
#

more likely the system bugged out or you are in some weird region, try login out and back in and trying again

dusky wolf
regal anchor
#

Well I’m world tier 3 so pop off

azure turtle
#

do you own Wony?

regal anchor
#

No

azure turtle
#

thats why you still have world tier

regal anchor
#

Well world tier or not I should still be able to find a teammate bruh

oak talon
#

its fine to be going trough the world tiers while lvling btw, i dont know why that got singled out

regal anchor
#

I’ve been stuck on this mission I’m too far in it to just leave but I can’t progress so I’m fucked

dusky wolf
oak talon
#

if you are lvling up trough the game, without boosting, you go trough world tiers, not everyone is just aimed at the endgame at all times

dusky wolf
#

i dont even know what base game got from all the TU that came...

oak talon
#

not much is changed there, 1-30 and WT 1-5 are pretty much as it was at wony release, with just gear 2.0 having changed gear and talents

dusky wolf
#

but does it have talents that came with the seasons ?

#

or gearsets ?

#

or skills ?

oak talon
#

nothing that was in the season tracks is available in at 30, so no added brand/gearsets and exotics, only gearset that got added to 30 were FI and foundry

foggy needle
#

do note that the exotics from both raids are available to base game.

dusky wolf
#

sure....raid is available...so why not the exclusives

naive mirage
#

Can Everlasting Gaze be found in countdown with allocated loot set?

azure turtle
foggy needle
#

They never join the loot pool. Raid exotics are exclusive to raids.

oak talon
foggy needle
#

ive heard the hunters in countdown can drop DZ loot. havent fully tested it though.

oak talon
#

i would need to see proof before i would even consider believing that, in now atleast 100+ countdown runs now, i havent seen one dz item drop for either me or my group

foggy needle
#

ditto, but ive heard it from enough people that it might be true.

oak talon
#

its aleast nice that yo u can get dz items with the countdown coins, crosses a few items of of the profficiency grind

dusky wolf
#

only countdown named caches can drop some...but actual hunters not

coral pagoda
#

i set providence defense as targeted and out of the 3 times i got exotics all 3 were the bighorn
is that normal?

whole grove
#

Do targeted loot change weekly or is it maybe even daily?

foggy needle
coral pagoda
#

so it was just wacky rng then, getting 3 big horns?

foggy needle
#

targeted loot changes daily, midnight PST. can see the timer on the target loot map at the bottom.

#

no not wacky, because legendary bosses can drop big horn. and providence target loot has no exotics.

whole grove
#

@foggy needle Thanks!

coral pagoda
#

ohh ic

#

is theres somewhere i can see which target loot has what exotics?

foggy needle
#

exotics are tied to there item type. except for big horn and the raid exotics.

#

iirc there is a exotic drop guide on the pinned spreadsheet.

coral pagoda
#

ahh ok
thanks

foggy needle
#

TLDR: if looked for exotic backpack, then farm backpack target loot. if looking for exotic SMG, then farm smg.

indigo slate
#

Hello, i have a question about the new system to level up gear

#

I have a police m4, put it to max and then used resources to gain +1% damage

#

But it doesn't seem to be back to 0, it just says master and not enough expertise to upgrade

tulip fiber
#

If at expertise 1, you can only upgrade to level 1. Level up expertise to further upgrade your stuff.

indigo slate
#

Yes but on the menu, it just says Master and i don't have the level

tulip fiber
#

Proficient?

indigo slate
#

Oh wait, you need to level up multiple things to get your expertise level up ?

tulip fiber
#

Yeah

indigo slate
#

I thought you had to level up one thing, then reset and level up again to upgrade

tulip fiber
#

Each item in the game is used toward expertise.

indigo slate
#

Thanks

#

Regarding the Fairview apparel event... What's with the backpack? Checked their official site, no mention of it.

vivid dagger
#

Daniel's League - Hostiles Burned - what mobs count? Regular / named don't seem to count?

azure turtle
#

Can you only research named Items? Im trying to figure out this proficiency thing still. Im proficient with a few different things but It wont let me research anything besides named items and exotics.

vivid dagger
#

yeah, exotics and named

azure turtle
#

I see

vivid dagger
#

expertise - pretty much everything (you can donate duplicates too)

raw ridge
azure turtle
#

I have plenty of duplicates for gear, but it doesnt allow me to donate them

#

especially for gear the Im proficient 10 with

raw ridge
#

just discard them - you'll need those resources anyway

#

usually I pick up all loot I don't need as junk, then donate all junk for expertise and then discard everything that didn't donated - the items I'm already prof lvl 10 with.

azure turtle
#

If Im proficient with a brand or weapon, where or how do Iupgrade them?

raw ridge
#

on a bench in expertise menu you chose either weapon class (AR, LMG, SMG etc) or brand or set brand or type of gear for named items.

#

there you'll get a list of every item it this category. Chose the one you're prof 10 with - you'll get a list of this items you own

#

chose the one you want to upgrade - press and hold space for upgrade. BUT you can only upgrade up to your overall expertise lvl

#

it goes up once every 200 prof lvls collected on all items

azure turtle
#

Ohhh ok

#

Thank you! :)

#

Hey In the session pass I unlocked last seasonal manhunt missions , how do I start these?

feral wren
#

if you use a shotgun for a sidearm does having points in sidearm on your specialization increase its dmg ?

inner tendon
#

Nope, only counts for the Shotgun points.

Do new exotics drop from countdown?

But better do your weeklies first

I am not shure if i got the question answered so i try again. How to get new backpacks from apparel event, what missions, what difficulty

#

New backpack?

delicate tartan
#

Yeah its in those new trailers

#

Never notice... All I see are some dudes in reusable plastic bags

So you cant get backpack buy playing missions? They will be released later, do we know how and when? @steady terrace

steady terrace
#

coral pagoda
#

is there a minimum difficulty for doing summit challenges?

ionic wharf
#

nope

stable crescent
#

soo... in the apparel event
instead of opening crates and getting a random item, i open crates that give no dupes?

nimble spruce
#

yup

naive mirage
#

When doing summit for the Ridgeway exotic pieces, do you have to increase the difficulty progressively? For example, you have the Challenging Hunting Knife, then the Heroic Flag Patch.

#

Or can it be done on one difficulty all the way through?

dusky wolf
#

when summit came out the floors were set to difficulty from start

#

like 1-20 normal 21-40- hard 41-60 challeneging 61-80 heroic 81-100 legendary

#

it think thats why they were called that

wintry cave
#

Is there a mission where I can farm elite outcast spawns? Like kill a few elites then blow myself up and respawn close to where more would spawn?

dusky wolf
#

summit ?

coral pagoda
#

in the summit challenge to use pistol can you still use skills or is it strictly pistols only?

nimble spruce
#

I think it's strictly pistols only - it's certainly pretty picky

tulip fiber
coral pagoda
nimble spruce
#

probably but not guaranteed (and not the deflector shield)

coral pagoda
#

pain

#

also are the keys usually located at the floor of the cache room or the floor before?

nimble spruce
#

just drop it to Normal for tricky challenges if you want to cheese them. Keys can be found on any of the three floors leading up to the chest, but the final one is the most likely

coral pagoda
#

is it every floor ending in 3 6 or 9 or is it every floor thats a multiplication of 3

foggy needle
#

3, 6, 9 are the chests and the key is RNG spawn in each 3 floor section.

coral pagoda
#

i see, thanks

covert marsh
#

my experience with summit access keys:

  • typically, you'll find them on the second or third floor of any given 3-floor segment
  • you'll hear a random drop sound out of nowhere when you're getting close to the key
  • most often, if you didn't pick up the key, running backwards through the level will usually show where it is, because they're often placed outside the typical line of sight for most players (which means you really have to check your corners if you want to find the key on first pass)
nimble spruce
coral pagoda
#

thanks a lot

covert marsh
#

pretty sure you can use any skill that doesn't literally take the pistol out of your hand (e.g. pulse doesn't fail the challenge, as far as i've ever experienced)

#

but, like, hives and turrets will fail the challenge, i think

nimble spruce
#

well, mine just reset for no apparent reason, the only thing I can think of is that I swapped a couple of weapons around (including my sidearm) - didn't actually fire any of them other than the pistols, though

Hi, I have a question regarding the completion of the snitch card sets and obtaining that achievement (forgot the name).

I've been killing open world boss after open world boss and the missing cards just won't drop. In fact, no cards drop at all. I thought when you kill a boss and get its card that boss won't spawn again until you have all 52 cards. however, at least the last 10 bosses in DC open world haven't dropped cards although I am only missing 3 from the DC sets and thus for the achievement. Technically, it shouldn't take long to get these cards when I visit each of the open world boss spawn locations.

Or am I missing something here?

(somewhere I read that you have to complete the black tusk snitch card set or the other bosses won't spawn. But dunno if that is in fact true)

Thanks for any help.

dusky wolf
#

i think that changed way way....there are possible spawn locations...but not fixed

narrow kraken
oak talon
# acoustic lark Hi, I have a question regarding the completion of the snitch card sets and obtai...

the card system will try to give you a named atleast one person in the group hasnt killed yet, but because it check for if killed instead of if you have the card, if at some point you were in a world where someone killed the named and the card dropped, but you didnt pick it up, it will be checked off the list. once it thinks you have all 52, it starts to spawn them at random, and you might have a chance to get them then, but its very RNG

acoustic lark
dusky wolf
#

iam not sure.....but almost everything got a do-over in the last years

acoustic lark
dusky wolf
#

i always farmed the spot south of whitehouse

#

until i got all

acoustic lark
#

yes i also turned to that spot. but no cards are dropping there for me.

oak talon
#

if you ever dont get a dropped card when killing a world named when solo, that means the game thinks you should have all 52 and you are in the random phase, it might take a while to get the ones you are missing

acoustic lark
oak talon
#

joining someone else doesnt help much, as unless they have like 10 remaining that overlaps with your 3, it wont be a benefit, as with someone that still needs all they will basicly be rng aswell to if you need them

#

but just keep farming them inbetween other stuff and eventually you will have them all

#

i remeber it took me quite a while when i ran into the same issue, but just kept farming them every 30 mins

acoustic lark
#

alright, thanks for the tips! at least its not bugged to a point where i cannot get the achievement at all

#

Has anyone ever gotten the standard UMP45 dropped in-game?

What are ivory keys? I've seen a cache in the White House that asks for them

nimble spruce

they're dropped by the same 'puzzle hunters' that drop the masks

plenty of online guides on how to get them

arctic tusk
#

what happens if you fail countdown? both when the timer hits 0 and if you die at the end

inner tendon
#

@arctic tusk If you die at the end of Countdown, it just brings up the stats screen and you can leave.
Never had it fail, so I can't help you on the first part.

arctic tusk
#

you still keep anything you get at least?

oak talon
#

at any fail point, you get half countdown coins. either failing, dieing or not extracting

#

but you keep all loots

slender marlin
#

So you just don't get the x2 extraction bonus

arctic tusk
#

i havent looked into the vendors yet, I've doing it to semi-leech for proficiency on skills

inner tendon
#

There's a Laptop just near the Season menu in the BoO, contains caches+some decent loot.

delicate tartan
#

How to level up faster to get keys?

#

Apparel event

inner tendon
#

Basically completing anything in div2 will get you XP, so doing activities with other players can drastically speed-up the process.
The current League is great for it, running those timed missions. CP's, Summit farming, Countdown, etc, etc.

Just pick something fun and get on that grind, Agent.

delicate tartan
#

👍😉

delicate tartan
#

It kind of struggle and a lot of time to get 4 levels up and then key. Isnt there a easier way play several hours just to get 1 key. 😭

dusky wolf
#

several hours to get 1 key ? what you doin....i think iam missing 4 keys to get this bs looking event done

raw pike
#

If you're hunting for a named item from a brand set such as Chainkiller from Walker, Harris & Co you can just grind out the missions that their loot allocations for it right?

cedar tide
#

You could also get Chainkiller from named caches if you get them from the countdown vendor, but RNG too

Is countdown hard? I recently hit level 40 and have gathered some gear... Its not great but I can play on hard solo.

#

Can I join a countdown you think? or do I need to get a bit more stronger? Im looking for the striker set atm.

cedar tide
#

Countdown isn't terribly difficult. It's meant to be played with 8 total people kinda like a raid. You can let others carry you as long as you're relatively carrying your own weight and you'll be okay

Can I ask about named item drop locations in this channel??

@tulip fiber does that apply to the new The Setup named backpack? I've only ever gotten like 1 or 2. And I've been slamming countdown like crazy. I know there's alot of named items and all. Just curious

somber mirage

are the specialization pistols even worth using compared to other pistols?

karmic harbor
#

not really

#

maybe the firestarter shotgun with the primer rounds talent

#

apart from that I don't think so

narrow kraken
#

I use the technician one as a backup for Mechanical Animal and Test Subject, and the gunner one is pretty decent

supple swift

#

Firestarter is pretty sweet, although I wish the combo with the flamethrower was faster to execute

I think you waste like half of the debuff just pulling the flamethrower out and burning the enemy enough to trigger the status

#

Any idea will the backpack skin of this apparel event come back? I really like those backpack in the trailer. It is unfortunate they remove it 😦

raw ridge
#

I wonder if they'll do something with new AR model (the one kingbreaker based on) - not only it's the ugliest gun in-game but it won't take any skins and clips though player model when running with it and have some weird hole near mag when on backpack

Good day,

As Alignment said, the backpack is the reward for completing one of the sets. You'll have to go through the sets and see which one, though. It'll be a purple item at the top of your backpack transmog list.

So in theory if someone raised their expertise level overall through gear usage and donations but never actually spent materials to upgrade any of it, they shouldn't be getting compensation?

gentlemen, i'm a first-timer, just hit lvl 30 mid-campaign, and the level stopped growing. it just drops boxes now. will those levels retroactively count after i do WONY?

#

i see people with levels in hundreds and thousands, so i'm assuming, that after WONY, i.e. at hitting 40, it doesn't block further growth.

#

but at the current progression step it's a bit of an impasse. shall i rush WONY? or finish campaign first? or what?

loud saddle
# sacred sigil i see people with levels in hundreds and thousands, so i'm assuming, that after ...

the levels are not retro-active, you'll just obtain proficiency caches until you start the WONY campaign, at which point you will go back to leveling from 31-40. After reaching lvl 40 you will enter a new form of leveling, SHD level. your character will still be level 40 from this point on but every "level" gained after that is a SHD level (the number you see that's so large on some players) and you will obtain proficiency caches once again. SHD levels reward attribute boosts (better explained after beating WONY and not spoiling anything) for the first 1000 levels, after that it's just for show mainly unless you count the ever changing patch every 1000 levels.

sacred sigil
#

right, thanks.

#

and if i rush wony immediately, do i lose main campaign progress? side missions and stuff?

loud saddle
#

you don't lose progress, but you wont be able to replay the side missions, you miss out on some awards/commendations I believe but otherwise the game auto-completes the required one time only missions.

#

so you'll just never have played it with no option to play them, even after WONY.

#

most people will finish all the main campaign and side missions and skip the world tier leveling/climb that happens between main campaign and WONY, but just boosting to WONY.

sacred sigil
#

so a certain amount of xp loss is essentially unavoidable this way.

loud saddle
#

not so much XP loss as boosted or not you'll start WONY at 31-40. nothing will change that part.

#

do you want to do it in proper order or get to end game asap?

sacred sigil
#

although, a pay2win autoboost to 30 would've immediately brought me to that state with no useful xp.

sacred sigil
loud saddle
#

if you haven't started the world tier climb I'd say just finish all the main and side missions you currently have on map and that appear, once you start the world tier portion you can boost to WONY if you wish. (you just miss a bit of explanation of some lore and factions and such but you're not missing out on anything you can't redo later)

Yo ppl, after the update yesterday I've been getting really long loading times to get into the game. For instance after I click "play" I have to wait for like 60 seconds for the screen to even go black and another eternity until i see the initial loading screen - which is then stuck at 0% for another good minute. I've heard this from friends of mine who have completely different specs, so I guess its not tied to any of that. Somebody here experiencing the same or even has a fix?

The best case scenario is to log out and log back into the game and the chances of finding games are increased. Unsure the maths behind this but this works 80% of the time for me. Give it a try and if not, just run it with matchmaking and someone will eventually join or call for backup / set group to open.

#

nope they work for 40 too

junior cave
#

Ah, good to know. But clan bounties aren't showing on map like normal ones.

#

I mean you can see them after some time... At 30 lvl it was perfectly fine, lined with normal bounties.

#

But at 40... ;p

foggy needle
#

thats a build issue then. HB when built correctly still deals ~30% more damage then meta red build (down from 70% before nerf). It matches meta red dps at ~50% stacks too fyi.@marsh oriole

#

also HB is a hybrid set and shouldnt be doing more DPS then meta red or strikers (but it is atm), that is not proper game balance.......

karmic harbor
#

not to mention it gives you more protection too

foggy needle
#

yup ^^

marsh oriole
#

@foggy needle what are you talking? 100 stacks from HB now do less dmg than perfect focus + striker/high end/neg dilemma.

foggy needle
#

nope

karmic harbor
#

i dont think a set that gives you more survivability and damage than using glass cannon with all reds should be a thing

marsh oriole
#

ofc f***yes

#

visit shooting range

karmic harbor
#

tbf the shooting range isnt 100% accurate

foggy needle
#

we have fully tested HB pre and post nerf

#

also yea keep in mind shooting range still has a lot of bugs (mostly with the dps meter)

karmic harbor
#

and you only mentioned solo legendary

marsh oriole
#

the only way HB was better/good, was the possibility to finally not use perfect focus to do simillar dmg

foggy needle
#

Meta dps HB (coyotes + ceska vigilance) beats meta red (PGC + Vigilance) by currently ~30% when at max stacks and using AR (more if you main ACS).

karmic harbor
marsh oriole
#

yes, HB was for some heavy dmg game, not silly hard gameplay mission where you can run through with literally anything

#

How are we supposed to contact Ubisoft if we didn’t receive the proficiency cache when there’s no way of searching for it on their website?

karmic harbor
#

this isnt the answer you wanted but yannick said theres research being done into why not everyone has gotten them if that helps

foggy needle
#

HB chest gives you a 50% boost (total 100% boost), Perfect focus gives you a + 10% boost (total 60% boost)

marsh oriole
#

high end PF+Vigilence do more dmg that HB on full stacks

foggy needle
winged terrace
#

Lol it doesn’t and there’s no possible way to prove you didn’t receive it either

karmic harbor
foggy needle
marsh oriole
#

show me any video link

karmic harbor
#

also why so adamant on defending hb

marsh oriole
#

because it is creazy that game is nerfed to taste and (lack of) understanding of the most casual players

foggy needle
#

HB DPS with ACS is even higher but PF meta red does close the gap but iirc still loses by ~10% to HB full stacks

karmic harbor
#

slay azurmen

foggy needle
#

and dont forget HB is a HYBRID set... it should NOT beat dedicated dps builds.... (hence HB still way too strong)

marsh oriole
#

I still dont see how famas with fast hands, pf+vig do less dmg than hb with famas and flatline

foggy needle
#

because HB stacks is a 100% AMP, not even counting Vigilance for HB.

marsh oriole
#

let me start a game and check if I am not missing something badly

karmic harbor
foggy needle
#

yes and no

karmic harbor
#

care to elaborate lol

marsh oriole
#

@foggy needle ok, I see where is the difference - what is that "meta" hb build you meassure dps?

foggy needle
#

It was an exponential amp (just like strikers), but now each stack is just additive with the others, but the total boost is still an amp.
Total HB boost went from 170% (exponential amp) down to 100% (normal amp) with this nerf.

marsh oriole
#

@foggy needle hb, vig + let say contractors or coyote?

foggy needle
marsh oriole
#

ok, what times you do solo on legendary missions with it?

foggy needle
#

contractors/ fox is lower dps with gear sets as they lack crit. these are only good if you dont lack crit, then they are great.

marsh oriole
#

ok, but how you play with this "build", what times you run legendary mission solo with it?

foggy needle
#

solo on legendary missions is entirely different beast. also im not a speed runner.

marsh oriole
#

ohhhh, so you play challange or hard mission with it and it is op, right?

supple swift
foggy needle
marsh oriole
#

and that was my point: before nerf you could finally run through legendary without PF, with HB/memento/ceska, easly under 30min every single time

oak talon
#

i love how people go, oh but in this one situation this super op thing isnt op, so its not op in general, thats not how stuff works

marsh oriole
#

heroic missions you can run through with random items...

oak talon
#

and you can run it faster with hb, your point is invalid

karmic harbor
inner tendon
#

Well I missed a whole thing.
Be nice, y'all.

marsh oriole
#

the point is: hb was finally giving you some choice how to play hard content, but super casual players who stuck with heroic missions(and bellow) start to cry

oak talon
#

that what it means when something is over powered, it over powers other things

karmic harbor
#

if you want to solo legendary you should have to do some weird quirky shit to get around

supple swift
marsh oriole
#

@karmic harbor how much time you need to play game to be able rund legendarty solo?? it really not hard

karmic harbor
#

thats not what i said

#

i mean it SHOULD be that way

marsh oriole
#

I mean how much time you need to play heroic missions to find it too easy? weeks? months maybe?

foggy needle
#

??

marsh oriole
#

if you are new players with 0 understanding of game heroic missions are way to go

nimble spruce
#

they're really not

foggy needle
#

^^

junior cave
#

Well, Division 2 isn't for solo play only.

foggy needle
#

chill out dude, no need to get toxic

junior cave
#

So, why bother? div2shrug

marsh oriole
#

you do them in 5-10min solo, with almost any build - how many times doing it feels like any kind of challenge?

foggy needle
#

ENTIRE game can be soloed (except 2 raids) so yes its a solo game. saw edit...

nimble spruce
#

challenging should be the default difficulty for anyone who wants to just have fun & chill out - heroic is for those who want to push themselves, legendary for those who REALLY want to push themselves & also have the top builds & lots of experience

karmic harbor
marsh oriole
#

again, my point was: hb was great to finally play hard content differently - now not so much anymore, because it was op for players who even dont play hardest content

foggy needle
#

except it wasnt.... see above again ^^

#

pre nerf... HB meta build stompped on meta red PGC by 70% MORE dps.

#

how is that balanced......

marsh oriole
#

you talking about hb build that you will not use in legendary solo anyway, so... the dmg is theoretical

foggy needle
#

its not though... ACS stacks to full in 2s...

karmic harbor
marsh oriole
#

and wr in legendary mission are not made and - looks like - they wont be with hb how it is now

#

so hb is done in this way

#

and playing hb heroic missions... it was silly from beginning

nimble spruce
#

it's almost like the vast majority of build design & balancing is not designed for people soloing legendaries

foggy needle
#

top speed run meta was unchanged because of how broken regulas + HH is but outside that 1% game was broken

#

game balance and build testing is something you clearly struggle at so ima head out lul

marsh oriole
#

for you guys all this talk is theoretical, number on spread sheets - and for those people hb was nerfed - and my point is: that is stupid

karmic harbor
#

lets undo the hb nerf and make it so it also grants skill efficiency for each stack

marsh oriole
#

@foggy needle I asked what times you do legendary mission with this OP Heardbreaker set?

#

show me Your testing

oak talon
#

and you have a belieff that just because hb cant do one thing, it wasnt overpowered, ill leave it to everyone to come to their own conclusions as to wich one is more stupid

foggy needle
#

already answered above 🤦‍♂️

marsh oriole
#

you stick to heroic missions, right?

supple swift
#

we cleared DUA legendary with no plan whatsoever other than "lets do an HB run for shits and gigles" and cleared in under 15 mins

marsh oriole
#

and spreadsheets?

#

you still missing the point: HB was adding some diversity to play hard content, e.g. legendary missions solo

#

but it was nerfed to taste of people who dont even play hard content(I guess)

oak talon
#

and youre missing that having one build outdamage all the rest in most situations, makes it so everyone just runs that one build

karmic harbor
#

so you just want it to be buffed because it makes hard content easier

#

ignoring literally everything else

#

🥶

oak talon
#

also, why did you like running it for legendary pre nerf, was it perhaps because it was OP, or was it just the looks

marsh oriole
#

ok, heroic missions solo: before you will get full dmg you will run out of enemies in area, so you will do it easier and faster with any other build

nimble spruce
#

also, why are you so obsessed with soloing legendary? If not for the challenge? Now it's more challenging again, so surely that's better?

marsh oriole
#

my point... build diversity,

#

it doesnt matter for heroic, because it is super easy anyway once you play it like 100 times....

karmic harbor
#

so much talk about build diversity for someone thats wants it for only solo legendary specifically

nimble spruce
#

right, one build being far stronger than others is great for build diversity

hi, when farming open world bosses for these playing cards, i usually have a few locations i visit, hoping an open world boss spawns in. i was wondering, if after killing an open world boss at one of these locations it is possible that yet another open world boss can spawn in on the next spawn location i visit immediately afterwards aswell? or is the cooldown for open world bosses 30/45 min in general. meaning when i kill 1, only after 30/45 min it is possible that another open world boss spawns in in all of DC?

I hope this sounds comprehensible lol

Theyre filled with random loot (think proficiency caches) the loot scales with world difficulty. If you open them pre 40 the items inside will be useless after a mission.

Collecting them isn't necessary and doesn't grant exclusive rewards or skills unlike DC campaign.

Maybe I'm dumb, but how do I get the heartbreaker set?

junior cave
#

Set HB brand as a targeted loot in summit or countdown, then kill and collect stuff.

#

Or you can hunt items in world activities or missions if HB is set as target loot. Check at map.

#

But easiest way to get'em is countdown imo.

hello everyone, I finished the main campaign missions and I believe I need to choose my class, and finish the rest of the activities, is there anything more I should be aware of?

first off, you can always swap your specialisation at any time at the white house, you arent stuck into beign a "class"

Where is the best place to farm green gears? I dont have new york DLC

oak talon
#

and you are able to go to warlord of newyork at the point you are at, but if you want to experience the full story you are better off going trough the world tiers and the "off site" missions before you head there, going to wony is a one way trip and you will be locked into it and going to lvl 40 once you start it

Can someone please explain Aces and Eights a little quick? I understand that I need to draw 5 cards (I interpret that from 5 shots since I draw a card when I shoot) and then I get the +30% more damage. But what does the cards mean? For example the Four of a kind, it says 4 shots. What does it mean with those 4 shots? I draw a new card for each shot so where does this 4 shots come into the picture?

Can someone please explain Aces and Eights? I get nothing when I try to google this :S

nimble spruce
#

"What does it mean with those 4 shots?" - it means your next 4 shots get the 30% bonus damage. Those shots will continue to flip cards, which will get you more shots with bonus damage, so you essentially end up with more or less constant bonus damage

whole grove
#

Cool. So the depending how good the "hand" is I get more bonus powered shots?

nimble spruce
#

especially as it's not using a standard deck and random cards, so the number of times you get those full house, 4 of a kind etc is much greater than you might expect

it might not be on any mission or zone today, as there are more item types than spots, but you can always set your own targeted loot in summit or countdown

also countdown itself is one of the best spots to generally grind for items

this is going to sound dumb, but I was looking for a grindy shooter. Got recommended this game. Bought it for like $4.99 on epic without doing any research. What do you guys do end game? Is there end game pve? I like grinding for gear but don't care much for pvp

oak talon
#

that basicly sounds like that this game is straight up your alley, the endgame is mostly just grinding to get better builds and completing what you feel like doing.

#

and its 99% pve for most people, with no forced pvp at all

If you still have money, make sure you get the Warlords of New York expansion in case you like the game

It's one of those "everyone's in it at this point" kinds of expansion

That’ll work, yeah. I just mentioned Lincoln because of the four bosses you encounter. One of the better missions to farm.

If you really wanna play the build, though, you could use things like banshee pulse, shock trap, sticky bombs and other clunky methods of CC to stop enemies on your cloud... or you could just shoot them in the face and have a much easier time

What exactly is the benefit of Increase Ensare Health for the Foam Launcher? Does that help at all for PvE or is that Expertise Bonus ment for PvP? Sorry If I've posted this in wrong channel.

You can shoot the foam off someone and the health represent how much you can shoot it before it breaks

Not quite useful for foam cc but a core mechanic in IH raid boss 3

So this is a silly question.
Is there any way to sort my gear mods alphabetically with ascending value?

I feel like this should be one of the best QoL updates that this game can have now.

nope

#

gear & skill mod inventory management is one of the worst-designed bits of this game imo

cedar tide
#

😩

#

Yeah, I thought so. Welp, gonna send a suggestion ticket or something div2relax

nimble spruce
#

at least they added the filters, that does help a lot

cedar tide
#

I appreciate the filters for sure, not a problem. I feel like it could be improved one step further by actually sorting by value and what not

nimble spruce

personally I think the entire system needs a complete overhaul

Alright. I reckon it's more expedient to just do a floor 10 farm, though.

#

the tombs cheese tactic was to use emp to kill all the decoys at the end of the mission (far more of them than the drones at the start), no idea if it's been patched or not though

cedar tide
#

I think it still works. Just had this run yesterday with my jammer pulse and got some proficiency levels, but I didn't cheese it.

green cedar
#

Oh, sounds more attractive if it's all the decoys.

#

And close to the boss reset so also simple

nimble spruce
#

yeah just run into the final area, emp decoys, commit explosive hari-kiri, repeat until you realise what your life has become

cedar tide
#

When you realise that life is cheese

green cedar
#

Does extra directive exp also factor into proficiency exp?

nimble spruce
#

don't think so, pretty sure it doesn't scale with difficulty either - just number of enemies killed and whether they're red/purple/yellow

green cedar

Alright, thank you both

Ok, I figured it out. He for some reason wanted to talk with me but when I clicked it nothing happened and the buy/sell option came up. My only guess is that he bugged out after I did one of the missions that had and upgrade for him or something.

# stable kite What is the recommended armor value to play challenging or heroic? I was trying ...

I play for a long time with high damage and low armor 730K and low health meanwhile only on heroic - challenging is boring. You don't need any specific build. Just select what fits best to your used weapons.
playing rifle? just go for overlord and so on.
add the right addons and go for it.
I play mainly with rifle+lmg (mk17+bullet hell) or rifle+shotgun (mk17+scorpio) - depending on what is needed.
my other former combination of attack rifle+rifle (mk16+mk17) was fun but missed the special punch from the exotics.
Well i am running heroic on complete map and don't die more as other players, sometimes it is really close, but god thanks for the scorpio 🙂
i use the scorpio and also the bullet hell for crowd control or control heavys - thanks for the effects of the scorpio when shooting in the mass of spawning enemies out a door.
so build your best own fit and don't get on the meta-road.

stable kite

ok. I really enjoy playing with LMG. It's just that when my armor is below 1M, I can barely survive

#

Well I played with 700k a while too, but for me there where too many Szenarios where I was 1 shot or it was such a close call

wooden edge
#

i often encountered such strange players, also when it goes for playing the raid - sorry men, you are only allowed to come with us, when you change your build, because your are doing not enough damage / have not enough armor etc.

versed apex
#

And you have to keep in mind everytime u sit behind cover to wait for them to stop spraying or to heal u loose DMG for idk 6-7 seconds

#

And that ain't worth it imo so just putting 1-2 defensive cores makes a huge difference

I've never heard it called that before, but looking at it it just seems to be the WONY dlc

I'd suggest avoiding buying any further content until you've completed that and reached the level 40 endgame, though

I've completed the base story missions and instead of showing my level it shows score, what's the difference?

Also how do I get access to the countdown mission? Do I need the dlc?

oak talon
#

in the world tier system at lvl 30 you have gearscore as your indicator of the rolls on gear, each world tier has its own upper and lower bounds to score, with 515 beign the top at world tier 5, this was the old system in year one, if you continue to WONY the gearscore will no longer be a factor

#

and for countdown you will need to have the dlc, and be at lvl 40

Are they the same thing

With the question, it's probably level 21 petter

#

SHD level is what you get at 40 after completing the WONY expansion's main story

tough patio
#

Oh I dont.have that.rn

narrow kraken
#

It fixes your level to 700K XP and you can level infinitely

#

But you're still 40, just the SHD level is like a prestige thing

#

You get a point each level and you put them in a few stats that vary from 10% to 20%

tough patio
#

Is the expansion worth.getting

narrow kraken
#

So you can't actually infinitely raise one and it's more a system that elevates the base stats of the player

#

Well, most of the playerbase is in it, it gives you a new, smaller, city, new gear and a buncha other stuff

#

It's quite worth it

tough patio
#

So would i.be.able.to.get.stronger.gear.if I'm still 30 and.dont.get.the.expansion

narrow kraken

Yeah, but even the strongest gear at 30 will not compete with gear at 40

I asked about.getting.fast exp because there's a stronghold I need to.be.lvl 30 for

And it's not getting easier to lvl up

I don't remember how the leveling is, but you might be able to raise the global difficulty and do some activities for it

And if you haven't already, do side missions as well
