@delicate tartan oh, I didn't know there were two different ones... Nice, thanks for the heads up!!!
Your welcome
well, after garbage bags and plastic bottles and soda cans, we need some decent clothes...
They are great the new clothes
i dun like that they cover your gear, most of the time
even when it is just some clothes and cables, doesn't mean they have to get rid of my gear's appearance
Well i think its good then gear is one thing
Its more importent to have clothes, descent
The Hunter in the manhunt mission almost instakills me in normal difficulty when I have 1.4M armor and 300K health? But when I wipe it says they only did 400K damage to me? Is this normal?
Does Lady Death drop from focus farming?
Yeah, SMGs
Thanks. Been farming the whole day and gotten 7 Backfires and 0 Lady Death. Guess terrible RNG today.
That’s how it goes sometimes
don't trust those cards
when you get wiped on razorback by the mortars in dark hours it doesn't mention razorback killing you
just ignore them
I wouldnt know 🥲. still have yet to do that lmao
how do I earn credits again?
What should I do now after having finished wony? I don’t have anyone to play with nor any guidance on what to do? I have a gear set but past that what how can I improve as a player?
go do some league
If you need or want gear sets and items you can farm countdown.
then weeklies
That is what I did after WoNY
What is countdown and where can I find it?
On thed DC map upper right hand corner
What is league and where may I find weeklies?
Thank you
You can set the target loot to whatever you want but holding H
if you have completed WONY main missions, just press escape (on PC), click on seasons for the league
for weeklies, check your projects
Noted
Understood
I liked the timed mission of league as well
countdown is mostly meh, unless you are urgent need for a build, do that last
if you have a build and want more, play some raid and more legendary missions/summit
How does one even go about making a build? I don’t understand how that works. I’d want to raid but I need to make friends to raid with😅
in the #td2-build-advice check the pin for builds
I will take a look at this immediately thank you so much!
what's a good skill for sniper rifles?
Decoy/drone/turret in my opinion are good. I would take one of those and revive hive.
For optimization i must have gear lc 40 to optimize it?
how about talents for sniper rifle?
Ranger,first scope
Hey Rivens
The hunters at night are unkillable unless you draw them out with certain puzzles and such because everytime I go out at night my screen blurs because I was being watched
You're mostly right, the "Hunters" that are watching you are commonly known as "Stalkers" and do no damage, flee once you approach/do damage, and drop no loot.
how naked talent works?
Naked: Hitting an enemy with no armor grants +50% headshot damage for 5s.
is there a list of where to get certain weapon mod blueprints?
Yep, all in-game actually.
At the "Crafting Table" is lists the drop location of all the blueprints.
90% of them come from Control Points (CP) at Lvl 3 or 4.
ohhk thanks
Do you need a requirement to drop uzina getica named items? i farm but never drops
Nope, both are available to farm anywhere.
Just remember the rule for farming in div2:
Targeted Loot: [Item type/brand] +Directives, Challenging or above.
are there any benefits to having a high shepherd rank? It's been pretty fun taking my build and aiding other players
At a certain level you will get an arm patch and a backpack trophy, but other than that it’s just being a good person 😊
I finished iron horse on normal yesterday but when I talk to anaya nothing happens
Go to your projects tab
Should see 2 projects
Gotta do those 2, then another 2 and one last one 😄
How useful are control points besides respawn? im asking this because I captured every single cp on my heroic map not sure if i should keep them or let the enemies capture them
the mats you gain out of these are not really helpful because you can just make another agent for the watch thing
Don't bother keeping them all
Only time I'll do CPs is for manhunts or if it has something targeted that I want
Even then Countdown is better for that now
Ok
or BPs
Pretty sure you can
However I think people here would recommend you do that after the dlc
basically everything the game has to offer now is behind the dlc
optimising lvl 30 gear when you could get the dlc is a waste
I mean, if they don't want to get the DLC and if they're happy with staying at level 30 of WT5, that's fine. But the DLC is really where things get spicy and many will recommend it when it's on sale or something.
Wanted to buy the season pass, but the store says its empty? Is this a bug? Or is it because Im already at 100?
Finished apparel event, next one is planed to be in 3 weeks. Im going to play guardians. It took longer then i thought. 4 levels up before i get 1 key. Should have been easier:)
there's a whole extra week before it ends, plenty of time to get the necessary levels
The catharsis headgear any good?
Can’t optimize level 30 - you can reconfigure exotics from WT1-WT4 To WT5 tho
Recalibration as well but … it depends
Can you kill the same hunters in freemode or are they gone forever?
You can repeat them
what makes the Chill Out mask special?
i got an ar at the recal station and want to replace my current core attribute with another in my library. do ARs only have AR damage and health damage as core attributes?
or do i need to get another AR that has diff core attributes
the first two are always the same, ars have AR dmg and health damage, SMGs have SMG dmg and CHC, LMGs have LMG dmg and dttooc, ect ect
the third attribute and the talent can be changed, tho
what does Chill Out have that makes it special? i don't see any maxed out stats or anything
2 mod slots instead of 1
oh ok sounds good
dumb question but if i equip 2 named items, do i get extra proficiency?
Well, you can't equip 2 of the same named items
Chill Out and Pointman will give some saucy Gila proficiency tho
How can i active man hunt in battle pass
@wheat dew Once you've unlocked the Manhunt you wish to complete (IIRC all 4 are available by Rank 68), then you go to the location of the mission and "toggle mission mode" until the text is yellow and says "Manhunt".
Guys how do I change the spec that I spawned with? I got the grenade launcher, but I wanna switch it.
@olive adder goto whitehouse walk in and look left you'll see it
I skipped Washington campaign since I bought the DLC, are there no requirements? I just fast travel there and all good?
@olive adder ok 😱do 2nd character properly from beginning and that will unlock the rest
I need to do the washington campaign to unlock the specialization choice?
Will there be a Division 3?
When you do the game from the beginning you aquire all your shd and when you get to 30 you unlock your spec
I am already 30+
But you boosted your character right
yes
I guess
can I not access that content with the same character that I'm playing rn?
Ok goto haven and look for a spec person
Where is the best place to farm kills on rikers bosses?
Haven as in Settlement in NYC?
Yes
I can't find a "spec"' person
Beside the "grumpy engineer"
Paul Rhodes?
You'll have to complete wony then goto dc
yeah I found him but he doesnt give you specs
Around the area beside Paul
only the skills
I found the spec NPC but why do I have 165 points unlocked for all specs except Firewall Gunner and Technician? @jaunty dust
Firewall, Gunner, and Technician were included later on, not part of the base game.
Are there easy ways to get points for the new specs?
you boosted, thats why. Boosting a character gives them all the points for the base 3 specs that were in the game at launch. As Rivs said, Firewall, Gunner, and Technician were released in mini updates later on, part of the year 1 pass.
If you dont own the year 1 pass you'll have to do the unlock sequence for it, but if you do, you can get points from the get-go by doing bounties, leveling up, and doing the weekly invaded missions.
Open the ubi-connect overlay (defaults to shift+f2) and click on "Challenges".
Thanks alot 🙂
hi im quite new to this game, is there a way to upgrade your weapon?
to get the damage up
If you're not level 40, it's better to find new ones of a higher level or quality
does bleed hit health directly or is it armor first
Armor first
It's a weaker fire that lasts longer
And doesn't make enemies panic
And comes from skills that are easier to apply it with
I love it when my metal plating bleeds
Woah you so brave for looking realism in a video game
More like "melting"
can i get orbit on general target pistol?
DZ exclusive or named item caches
alrighty thanksu
nope, bleeding
are servers down?
not entirely: I just had the bravo-04 error a couple of times, left it a minute and tried again, and it loaded properly
Morning Kettle
thanks
hey saph
I have a question, does the dark zone give better gear than the world tier 5 targeted loot system? I don't have the expansion atm.
Not really, about even tbh.
I wouldn't worry about farming out gear if you plan on getting the expansion, every single thing you have (except for Exotics) will be junk when you do.
if I have an exotic with low score, should I discard it in the future?
Nope, keep it. You can "upgrade" them later on.
kinda new to the game what's the blue armour?
Your "health" bar
It will increase the white squares you have above your orange health bar
Does the 10% damage bonus to status affected enemies stack?
Specialization bonuses won't stack with themselves
Damn
I was hoping for a 50% damage boost with a scorpio
does catharsis activate on hits to shield?
What is the fastest way to get Points for Technician Spec?
Hey what’s the quickest way to get true sons tactical assessment resources, thanks
you get points for leveling up, 3 per lvl, and form projects, daily bounties and invaded missions while you have the spec active, fastest would be to lvl fast, either with convoys or floor 10
they drop from missions and bounties last named, with more from higher difficulties, 4 on heroic, 3 on challenging etc... you can also craft them once you have the blueprint
Hello i have a problem when i finish the summit floor 100
I dont have the chest proyect
In the game i have New proyect but i dont see it
Is there a way to keep high FPS?
most of the time whenever i'm on a zone that lowers my FPS to less than 30, i switch to windowed until the FPS go up again (60+)
and then go back to borderless
is there a way to keep that going?
the game runs prety bad in borderless, but you can just use full screen, it functions as just most games have their borderless as but without many of the performance penalties , for example you can press esc and move you mouse to a second screen and click there without the game minimizing to taskbar as most games do in fullscreen, and you can even alt tab without it minimizing
ive noticed for the dps build on the spreadsheet that they recommened foxes knees but besides the rifle dmg what is their purpose over another item?
It's the 8% damage to enemies outside of cover bonus that really takes the cake for many DPS builds. But Fox's isn't a silver bullet.
Perfect for rifle builds. But non-rifle builds surely benefit from the DTOOC bonus despite missing out on the gear bonus itself.
ahh gotchu thanks
after the event is done are the items still buyable but with textil?
depends on how they do it this time, but in the past they waited a while before they cycled the items into the apparel caches and made them available for textiles
This is gonna be a tricky question for me to word
In the context of Countdown, is it better to target what you want to gain expertise in, Or is it better to target Mods and then deconstruct mods into filament to then donate to gain expertise?
I only ask because of what seems to be a high drop chance for mods and the higher yield of filament during deconstruct
quick question where is the best to farm god roll mods?
Countdown, legendary can give some good ones as well
Depends how far you are in expertise. My suggestion is to blanket farm all weapons first- as in target a weapon type and just keep donating until you have all the ones that can drop completed. Can easily hit expertise level 10 just by doing this BTW.
After that I think wearing the gearsets/using the skills and then targeting mods is better. You can also farm the gearset pieces but tbh that takes too long with just donations
Or wear the gearset and target it 😂
I didn't even notice I had all my brands done, just kept donating my trash and then boom, done
Guys is it worth it to play at max difficulty with all directives?
No
floor 10
So which difficulty/directives should I pick when playing?
Heroic, 2-5 directives
CP3+, invaded missions once per week and leveling up
Or just do any mission/trial
which ones are the best to take?
Countdown also give spec exp I believe
I typically choose noRegen, ragers, fog of war, and one other I forgot
So thats max difficulty all directives no?
I have 5 directives and heroic is max diff
Hmm, did they changed the directives?
Idk but for me heroic is max and only 5 directives
I remembered there was a pistol only directive. I could be wrong, it makes everybody wanna quit my session
Also the skill salvage, nobody likes my session XD
for a solo starting players which directives should I pick for heroic?
Ragers, Fog of War, Special Ammo
Also can try No Regen
Fragile Armor, Cool Skills, Skill Salvage, Pistolero you can try once you get more familiar with the game, but some people may leave your session
I don't see fragile armor/pistolero
Maybe they are in summit.
currently I'd say fog of war, ragers & one out of the other 3
I'd personally go for scavenged skills
Fog of War is actually fun
Really need to watch your 6
Scavenged skills actually quite bad if you use shields but ok
depends on what shield you're using but 1-3 isnt bad for the striker shield
Ragers hard to earn and fog of war if you're a cqc
Or can reliably get the spec ammo drop very quickly
Then expand to no regen and special ammo
Directives rotate per season iirc
Ok so what exactly IS this countdown thing? An event or a raid?
Hey everyone, i was wondering is div2 still good for a new player? how is queue etc
a psuedo raid
So I wouldn’t necessarily NEED “raid like” gear?
Yes
i mean if you wanted you could bring in some wet paper towels as gear, and you could complete it
What about my build I talked about earlier today?
Pretty sure you did actually
Guys how to keep track of SHD Caches in a zone? How to check how many I got outa 5 in that zone?? And do they respawn?
The 30% armor on kill 2 red 5 blue 1 yellow (momento) with 50% chance and 130% crit
play it like you would on heroic 4 man diff
Perfect answer, thank you
in general:
- fog of war is pretty easy to work around; you just have to use your eyeballs and look for enemies instead of just relying on the directional indicator
- no regen is also pretty easy to work around; you don't usually regenerate armor in combat, anyway, and, between fights, if you're low on armor kits, the game will start dropping them for you
- hard to earn is hit or miss; it depends on your playstyle, and whether or not you do things that fill the special ammo bar really quickly.
- ragers is usually pretty easy to deal with; the extra HP that enemies get isn't that much, in the grand scheme of things
- ammo hoarders isn't especially popular, as most people tend to spam reload after killing an enemy to make sure they have enough for the next enemy, so dropping the rest of the clip from a reload makes people angy (as does the reduced ammo cap).
- pistolero is definitely a way to annoy people, because nobody uses pistols in combat unless they're absolutely forced to
- scavenged skills, in theory, can lead to super-short cooldowns on skills. but most people don't really like having to run around to pick up the parts, and, if you're engaging at long range, you don't really want to have to get out of cover to go pick up the parts.
- i don't think most people like cool skills, frankly. not being able to simultaneously use skills irks a lot of people.
- don't use fragile armor, ever. people run around like madmen and build up stacks of broken armor that bring down their armor total, and applying an armor kit to remove a stack doesn't work half the time.
- special ammo is fine, unless you're running a skill build and encounter black tusk. having a heavy gunner with special ammo really sucks to deal with.
fun fact both hard to earn and fragile armor can also bug
cool skill is bad if you use reviver hive with a disposable skill
yeah, anything with an annoyingly long cooldown (and for something with as much utility as the reviver hive) doesn't do well with cool skills
also makes it harder to switch loadouts when you're waiting for minutes on end for your reviver hive or chem launcher to fill all the way back up
also worth noting: hard to earn locks you out of opening armor kit boxes, and pistolero locks you out of being able to open ammo restock boxes
Guys how do I see if I collected all the shd caches in a particular zone?
in NY? the projects keep count per zone
And do we only to discover all 5 shd caches in each zone once thats it? @oak talon in NY yeah
yeah, you have to also actually grab them, you have to get 5 out of 5 per zone to as a part to get the liberation project done for that zone
Guys where do I donate ressources for Weekly SHD requisition? Thx 🙂
Whats the best way to lvl up your SHD watch?
Open the Projects menu, click the Weekly Donation project and then hit Space
thanks 🙂 @delicate cliff do you know how much time a resource node takes to reset?
resource nodes takes an irl 24h
latter
btw is there a way to change my crosshair pls ?
because I really like the smg one but not really the other ones
When you mod your weapon just put the sights you like on,if available for the weapon
oh k ty
out of curiosity does anyone know what lmg has the highest rpm?
Negev
vector maybe ?
Ty
mb i didnt see the word lmg
is there maintenance today?
do you get any sorta rewards at the end of your manhunt after you have been killed? or do you only get rewards from clearing it on the console
Guys what's the difference between Headshot and Crit?
headshot is a hit that hits the head, crit is a random chance to proc on any shot
in your stats
is it per weapon or agent wide?
per weapon
should i focus on main quests or do side quests ?
Main then side for more xp I would start woty so you can skip dc
i skip washington ?
At what level should i worry about gear and stats? Do purple/gold weapons matter at lvl 20 or do numbers matter more?
Lets not ping ubi staff.
Ok, i just thought since they share info, they might answer to questions too,
what's the brand set of the Chainkiller?
What do you need answered?
Walker & Harris
They put out today, Meintanance outfit? Apparel event?
The outfit is part of the apparel event that is ongoing.
Yeah but they called it meintanance outfit, that was a bit confusing. But i managed to get all:)
Because the outfit is called Maintenance. The individual parts may have different names but most outfits have set names.
Oja i did not recall that the outfit was called maintanence, since its maintanence day i thought it was something special 😉
Anyways do not ping ubi staff again.
So you don’t think the mods will drop in high enough quantity to outweigh the expertise gain in targeting what you wanna level?
so what happens if you do the 4 hunter encounter but didn't get the veil mask but wanna re do it but the computer just doesnt work?
I can’t remember if I asked this already but EB with 30% armor on kill 2 red 5 blue 1 yellow (momento), running perfect everyday carrier on chest, with 50% chc and 135% chd good for DZ or PVP?
can i get exotic like memento or chameleon if i focus loot in countdown mode?
yeah, both of those are in the general pool
thx man just got memento from it
how can i know which exotic is in general pool?
Hey the donate all junk button is not doing anything on the expertise page I’m on ps5 ?
Mostly Exotics that requires blueprints aren't there, along with Raid exclusives
in the build advice channel there is a link to the discord spreadsheet in the pinned comments, it has a tab that has all the drop location and requirements listed out
I've had mods targeted in Countdown for over a week now, you can get anywhere from 180-300 depending on various factors. Even at 300 that is only 1 Proficiency level gained.
Is my build ok for PVP or DZ? EB with 30% armor on kill 2 red 5 blue 1 yellow (momento), running perfect everyday carrier on chest, with 50% chc and 135% chd.
Wait I’m asking the wrong place, mb
Afternoon Aspect, sanitizer
Quick question, if I'm looking for matador is backpack or brand better for targeted loot
Neither. Named Cache or DZ, I think.
But, in most cases, brands are better.
how do i re-do a hunter encounter after i finish the first one in one go?
Join someone else who hasn't already done it
Is that the mods drop themselves or printer filament yield?
alright got ya
Afternoon kettle
Hey saph
Is the Chill Out mask still in the general/targeted loot pool after todays reset?
You only need to ask in one channel.
Well I want an answer, so logically, I figured I would post in multiple channels. Sorry to agitate you.
most people here check through most channels, people don't just hang out in one and ignore the others
Alright, good to know. I very rarely come in here.
is there a gearing guide somewhere I can check out? I'm lvl 40 and have completed all story missions and I'm not sure what to do next for end game? I'm currently just going through the summit
I have 814k armor and 270k health
Gearing guide? Like you want to understand how to put together a good build?... Or what exactly?
check the pinned messages in #td2-build-advice, there's a spreadsheet linked by Azurmen that has a whole collection of strong builds for you to try out
Thanks kettle. I guess I just odn't even really know what to do. I've heard something about world tiers. I don't know if my gear is good, or what a build even is
world tiers don't exist at level 40, they're from the pre-dlc endgame. At level 40, you'd want to focus on building up your recalibration library, gaining proficiencies/expertise, levelling up your new watch, etc
ohhhhhh
I'd suggest checking the season menu and turning on the 'guardians' event, which will give you something to focus on, and also checking out the daily & weekly projects, etc. You'll also want to run some level 3 or 4 control points to build your blueprint library, and also max out your specialization points. Lots to do!
@clever shell incase your wondering. 1-30 , wt1-5 all other DC missions, then goto wony get watch start endgame
either set your world difficulty to challenging (level 3) or heroic (level 4) or do the small tasks (eg propaganda broadcasts, territory controls etc) that have lines connecting them to control points, which will push them up a level
you may want to put together a half-decent build before going to Heroic though, it's much tougher than Challenging or lower difficulties
I would suggest just pick fights and lvl up control points
sounds like a good idea. Gonna try setting to challenging and see how it feels
yeah that's sensible, heroic feels a bit 'punishing' and 'unfun' to players who don't want to push themselves (or who don't have a proper build)
It's all down to practice. Eventually, Heroic will feel like Challenging used to.
Afternoon Rivens
As with 90% of loot in div2:
Targeted Loot: [Shotgun] +Directives, Challenging or above.
Oh
Even if they haven't gotten it?
Scorpio has no barriers to obtain it, so yep.
Thanks rivens
did they rework the liberty? I dont remember the talent being what it is currently
when they reworked all the talents for gear 2.0, yeah - not since, as far as I'm aware
I wasnt aware they reworked all talents, thank you. been a while
a couple of years...
like I said, been a while
are CP4 still the best way to farm BPs?
Where do we farm Fox Prayer kneepads
just a normal item, so its target loot
Thank you
cp3's also drop blueprints, and since they are easier they are faster if you are only after the blueprints, but cp4s give better quality gear and weapons, so its a tradeoff
Ill probably stay on Heroic world diff for now then.
clearing the invaded missions also grants you 1 BP too as well
for any diff?
at least challenge + but do it on heroic for the free named item too.
anyone knows if the day 1 challenges need to be done today or can be finished tomorrow for the global event?
each of the first 4 days unlock new challenges, but you have till next tuesday till the event end to get them all done,
Hey, can the dare LMG drop without the QDC muzzle slot ?
a good habit is to not go way overboard getting them all done till they all unlock, as allot of them will overlap
No it always drops with it
ok, thanks
Guys I just did the Sargent Daniels Manhunt and I cant use the second Faye Lau's key, any help?
is kelso not showing up for you, or is it a different issue?
That’s been happening to everyone recently
Yes Kelso not showing up unfortch
but I did the 1st manhunt and gave 1st key no problem
have you tried fast traveling to ny and back, sometimes that solves it
gonna do that rn
I just completed something, dont remember what it was but there was a notification that "Legacy manhunt missions" where available or something like that. I tried google it but found a 2 year old post that was not so helpful. What is this? And how do I access it?
i think that means you can redo the old manhunt missions to receive the skills, such as the camp white oak one and the roosevelt one ( i forgot the others). you can access them when hovering the mission and toggling mission mode
theyre just unique missions that get you the season manhunt skills
Thanks i will investigate this
How does Summit Farm works?
i only want to do it to try and get Memento backpack
Do countdown and target loot backpack, you get a lot more loot in countdown which means more chances to get memento
Can i really get the memento in countdown?
you're not joking?
or you mean i have to get it on B O X E S
You can get it as a drop in countdown
All exotics besides raid and quest exotics drop in countdown
I hope you're not lying to me lol- gonna try it
or open exotic caches
No why would I lie lol
Countdown is hella good for farm items.
Unless agents spreads on map, ignore hunters or shot flare too early, etc.
should i come back to division 2?
But overall it's best for grind everything. :) Just set TL and make a go.
yesnt
anyone know why i get red lines when i enter a different zone? i feel like they werent there before
Does anyone know what this gives you??? https://prnt.sc/6U21hS3i21O-
Noted, Thank you.
@coral pagoda It use to be for invaded areas now it's for everthing
ahhk
thanks
Is the jammer pulse the same as EMP pulse? Field specialization stage 4 for technician
Anything that can inflict disrupt. So Jammer pulse and EMP Sticky
theres an emp sticky?
Yep. Season 1 main target reward
is it still possible to get it?
didnt know skills were season limited
Yep. If you unlocked it from the season track you should be able to get it by completing said missions
ah but im a new player tho, guess i wont be able to get it then?
Toggle it like you would on invaded missions
You can depending on your season track again
oh does progressing on this season track unlock previous season missions?
Yep
ahhk
thanks
Guys I got the Backfire exotic smg, but I can't see it in the craft/reconfigure vendor so I can craft it again
How do we enable the guardians so that they will spawn when we’re playing?
So to season menu and click on guardians tab you should see activate at bottom
U need to buy blue print from the vendor present on right side of crafting table
got it! my Firestarter from the Firewall specialization is a lvl 30 item though, how do I scale this one?
Deconstruct it and make sure pistol is fully levelled up in firewall specialisation tree. Will automatically add into your inventory or stash
pistol?
Hey what is the best way to cheese and boost the expertise system?
oh no that's pulse resistance
that's not an item, it's a buff
each specialisation has it
FYI its jammer pulse and EMP sticky (there is no EMP pulse)
If I use the EMP grenade on a enemy, does that count as a "Status effect" debuff when using other bonuses from equipment?
yes, EMP grenade causes the basic disrupt status effect.
Good to know, thanks alot 🙂
I'm trying to do the field research for technician stage four and it says to use an emp pulse on BT mini tanks
?
ah that is just the jammer pulse (in RL its an EMP pulse effect) so just word typo in game.
Is Countdown new player friendly? Heard its the best spot for gear farming but my current gear is garbage
nevermind I thought you were talking about the specialisation tree
the attribute at the bottom right
anyone know the best way to get the coyote mask?
Same as 90% of loot in div2:
Targeted Loot: [Mask] +Directives, Challenging or above.
I rec floor 10 farm, I get the 4% exo chance in summit too
I finished the story, everything is red now, I'm scared
@tacit gulch welcome to invaded and world tiers
Finish all side quests and dc map then on to wony
Oddly enough, Black Tusk wants you to feel scared and terrified. Truly an immersive experience.
Hunters worry me more than black tusk . After all hunter work for homeland security
Whats the talent for the Bluescreen?
long talent, its on the spreadsheet too 😄
Hmm hunter working for homeland security but Allied with black tusk to kill us all this game is a constant clues and contingency everywhere
oh theres a spreadsheet?
Homeland security vs the SHD
yes pinned in #td2-build-advice
The deep state vs citizens militias
thank you
So the citizens militias are the SHD and the deep state running black tusk and homeland security
This to me is an all out government war
Standard government known as the division vs a deep state government as black tusk and homeland
I’m starting to understand why people became paranoid over government secrecies every day
Im curious are any of the developers willing to stand in front of me using a dustbin lid as a shield while i pummel them with a shotgun - should be fine since div2 teachs us that dustbin lids are immune to bullets/pellets 😄
It teaches us many interesting objects are bulletproof
How do you do the floor 10 grind spot?
trees being my favourite
@azure barn do the level but died before going through the doors at the end, its pointless all thats going to happen is you wont want to play the game anymore farming resource and activitys nets you the same you just dont get a burn out as easily
Kill the boss but leave 1 NPC alive then return to lobby … DO NOT CLEAR THE LEVEL
ok
It works every 10 floors
Or just play countdown better drops when you kill the hunters
That's bullshit
Clear Etage 10 and then restart
That's floor 90 farm
It works every 10 floors
HE asked for floor 10 farm
That is the 10 floor farm . It works every 10 farms . Kill the boss Don’t kill all the NPCs grab your loot , return to lobby
They are both farms. One for exp, another for loot.
Decide which one you want and the methods become different
@oak talon thank you!
Since countdown came out the summit is kinda pointless IMO
Maybe not for mods.
You can get mods in countdown
But Legendary tends to give better rolls
Today's daily project includes playing the Lincoln memorial mission. Does the invaded version also count?
hello everyone! question, if I want to play the game just for fun from time to time, will I find people outside the dlc in game modes like countdown and raids? (the dlc rn costs 10 dollars but I don't think I can dedicate much time to the game, i just want to play for fun for the time being) , and so, I want to know if it's still possible to find people frequently on the base game
Countdown is swarming with people, but I don't know if at 30
In Countdown i constantly find a group within seconds of starting matchmaking
even countdown is only open for level 40 players, bruh, level 40 is the max level isn't it? and that can only be opened by the dlc
Yep
Very wrong
If you are gonna do tbis instead, might as well do floor 90
Inefficient af
It's for drops, not exp. But it's true, it's better to do floor 90 or maybe hunter farm altogether instead.
I'm pretty sure he meant exp
It doesn't say, we can't know.
Until there's an answer, it's all guesswork. He has his answer regardless, in both cases.
Does the eagle bearer rifle drop from target exotics or just the raid?
just the raid
Thanks!
Is there a reason do do raids on discovery mode?
not really, you are better off just watching a video on the raids
or reading one of the written guides
Guys I got Proficient with my Striker Drone but I can't upgrade it. I even got all materials. Why?
just to check, are you atleast expertise lvl 1?
Does anyone know about "upgrading" to the ultimate edition of TD2?
What’s the best do farm?
To upgrade something you need proficiency lvl 10 and then expertise 1?
you can only updrade them to you expertise lvl as the cap, so you need lvl 1 to upgrade at all, you need 20 to upgrade to 20
I finished the league! :D
@fading root why?
@fading root why? If you don’t like it don’t use it no point removing content because a few people don’t like it…
For the Technician Stage 5 Field Research, Ive done Tidal Basin and the invaded Roosevelt Island but it won't complete. Ideas?
they may have required difficulties tied to the challenge, at the specialisation desk or under progression you can check if it states a minimum difficulty you need to run them at
what's the purpose of getting a weapon to proficiency 10? I know you can "upgrade" it, but I don't really know what that means.
u cant upgrade until you hit proficient, which is proficiency level 10
what happens when you upgrade it?
for weapons you get +1% damage for every expertise level you upgrade it to (max 20)
gear (armor) you get more armor.
skills, they vary. some increase damage, some duration, etc
I'll check next time I'm on. The tracking box didn't state a difficulty so I ran them on normal to get an easy clear
how do you zoom in with the tac 50 rifle specialization gun? I can't figure it out on PC
Right-click by default, to toggle zoom/no zoom press "Tab".
what is the difference between a protocol and system gear mod?
Now? Nothing.
Craft either one.
Not sure why it hasn't just been removed at this point.
did they use to have a difference?
Yes. Different names would be for specific mod slots/attributes iirc.
Mods use to be a little different back in the day.
Each type would be needed for a very specific mod slot on a gear piece, then "different stats", now they're identical.
np, that's what we're here for.
Rivens, what's your profile icon of?
Rogue Agent logo, stylised as a rainbow, surrounded by the Lesbian flag.
was made for me by an awesome member of this Server.
Ahh, I thought it looked familiar I just couldn't place it bc it's fancy af in comparison to the normal Rogue logo.
why yes, yes it is.
it certainly beats my previous icon of "stolen from google images"
Is it just me or does Xbox seem to be the platform with the least people doing raids?
Lmao. I definitely stole mine from Google, but I had it as a tattoo first so that's gotta count for something right?
I just used the gif selector on discord when I had nitro way back in 2021
I’ve been lazy and haven’t changed it
I’ve been trying to get a raid team for ages now, I’m level 350 with a tardigrade build and coyote build
(I only plan on doing it for the EB)
Your best bet will either be ingame or #lfg-raid-console, I believe there's a system on the consoles to find groups via the ingame chat, but cant speak to how effective it is.
it is not
Ah well, roll them dice on the LFG then.
EB isn't that great anyway, I mean it's fun, but like, so are most of the exotics.
And like I said it’s 99% PS4 lol
People cheese the talent by switching weapons a couple seconds before it ticking
It’s cancer when a full squad uses it,
I’ve been trying out a HF/ memento lady death build but I swear that EB always ends up on top because of the talent and ammo capacity
The Talent is actively worse than just using a WH booster in like 90% of cases, at least in PVE.
With the techlaser buffs, im sure you can jury-rig something together that kicks.
there's a pvp build in the spreadsheet, i know that much.
I’ve tried a couple
Most effective ones are the ones I made myself lol
Anarchist cookbook builds are fun if you have a squadmate with ridgeway and you’re running Sadist
And HF would pair nicely with a coyote and tardigrade build
I'm unsure on who the resident pvp nerd is anymore, but keep an eye out on #td2-build-advice, a lot of them tend to hang around there.
okay gotta roll, play nice y'all
Glhf
What's the item/talent that pulses enemies when you aim at them?
The tech laser weapon mod from the tech spec.
oh ty 🙂
Can we increase proficiency/expertise by having the item in our inventory and not equipped?
no
Damn so you need to play everything to get max epertise
for a (reasonably) quick expertise gain farm countdown and just donate everything you don't need. Wich will be 99.9% of the loot you get) Start with weapons - AR for example. When you see that most you get you're already proficient with, change gear type and continue
for weapons it comes when around half of them reaches proficiency
also I saw people farming Tombs boss - don't know if it's still working after changes to an amount of xp for kills
I’ve been farming blueprints from level 3 and 4 checkpoints, where might I view these blueprints at and where can I craft them?
Crafting table at White House or at Haven in NY
Don’t forget donations (near the vendor in the settlements and the side missions also give blueprints as rewards for certain tasks
I most certainly won’t forget! Thank you!
I wanted to ask, what is the point of me farming out all these blueprints and such?
To create the mods …scopes, magazines, suppressors etc…the more you know the more options you have
Also to create gear itself
@maiden mantle some are objectively better than others. If you're not bothered by incomplete things, just go for those and farm until you get them
^ this for sure….in time you will get everything eventually
And I say map but the blueprints you get from CPs and so on will come to you eventually like Six says
You'll have them if you play
How am I to figure out what is better then others?
Ah! There in lies the heart of it
CHC mods, magazines with more rounds
Once you’ve discovered your play style and more importantly what works for certain situations….
Those are the more common
Just play the game, yeah.
Then come back once you have a playstyle you like and we can help you with builds
That makes sense!
But that brings me to yet another question
What should I be doing as someone who has no idea what I should be working towards to take on harder content?
I’ve been collecting gear sets and have a myriad of pieces sitting in my inventory I have no clue how to put together
Look at the bonuses they give and how they relate to your play style …
Sets give bonuses…for example 3 pieces of “walker harris” give all 3 of those bonuses or 4 pieces “hunters fury” give those 4 bonuses….
You can also mix and match if you only need a single bonus from that piece….example being “damage to target out of cover” from “foxes prayer” knee pads
Play style and combat situations make all the difference in how you build…
There is no right or wrong, only what works better for YOU
For the most part there are 3 types of builds and those branch off into a myriad of options…DPS, SKILL and TANK….SKILL builds can be very versatile primarily dps and healers….
Try everything and experiment….
Hey guys, the reward for reaching level 58 in the season pass is the Tidal Basin Manhunt (Hornet).
How do we actually play those Manhunt target missions from the season pass reward?
Do we just need to play Tidal Basin in this case?
When you have Tidal Basin open on your map, change the mission mode. Not sure how it's done on PC since I'm an Xbox player (press and hold Y in my case) but you can toggle between the invaded and the manhunt mission when you have Hornet's manhunt available
on pc its hold g, then on that screen you hold g again to toggle the mission
ahh I see thanks
by the way what is the most efficient way to farm guardians?
Does playing in challenging or heroic spawns more guardians?
No it spawns tougher guardians
Do something like cp or keep doing matchmaking missions
I took a break after killing the first lieutenant, but can I still kill The second one that came out?
yeah for as long as the season is up still (little under 10 weeks)
hi all - is it still possible to get the TDI kard custom?
yeah dz or named item cache
Countdown
I don't think you could get TDI Kard from Countdown even with targeted looting pistols. I thought it was DZ locked or named caches only.
how do I get the btsu datagloves? I'm tired of camp oak
Target loot for gloves as your loot and pray to the gods that you get it soon enough. You could do open world areas where gloves are targeted or set it as target loot in Summit or Countdown. It's all random at the end of the day so no guarantees @tall maple
can it drop from anyone or just blacktusk?
target loot gloves? anything
It can drop either way
btsu gloves specifically
Yes, same as coyote's mask, merciless, sawyers, and NYC exotics which used to be just mission specific
iirc, it used to be just from hunting named Black Tusk elites or named enemies. But now I suppose they're part of general loot pool
idk where rumor for cwo started but certainly wasnt the only source
(also dont watch 2-3 year old videos/guides for this kinda info)
It might have been the case when it initially released back in the vanilla days
TU5-ish? Whenever Camp White Oak was first introduced. Vaguely remember struggling to farm BTSU gloves because skill builds were the meta back then
yeah but even back then they could drop from any black tusk
was never a fan of skill builds so barely used it anyways
dude idk I have like 500 hours in this game and I never saw these gloves
if I didn't see them on the internet I wouldn't even know they exist
In my 31 days of playing, I've only got it 8 times in total.
that's a lot
Like those odds can't get any better than that 😂
But I've gotten it more than Orbit and BTSU gloves ain't even my priority.
tx!
Am I able to ask questions here?
Not without my permission
😂
I apologize in advanced for this absolutely stupid question, but I just started playing I’m now level 5 so it said I could play online, how the hell do I queue up for an online match?
for a pvp match? thats only at end game.
Er well end game means “once you are fully leveled and beat the story”.
so level 30 world tier 5 of base game or level 40 for DLC.
Oh so I have to play the story for this whole time?
Well, I found this tab in the map marked “conflict” with a tab called quick play. I clicked on it but have been sitting here for 20+ minutes and still hasn’t found any matches
its because nobody pvps until end game.
depends on how much you play.
Oh ok thanks
If you no life you can get to end game in a day. But you are still going to want a decent build to pvp. Also will need the DLC if you truly want a chance in pvp.
But just FYI, the pvp in this game is, not something the devs focus on. It’s a PVE game with pvp on the side.
Yep, PvE = playing against bullet sponges AI enemies and stuff
Ok thanks
If I set target loot to bag packs in summit/countdown, does every variant of bag pack in LZ pool have the same chance of dropping?
Excluding named
Yes, the drops are not weighted each one has an equal chance.
Wouldn't half of them be 5.11 then?
half no?
its 1 in (sum of total brands) chance of it being a 511 bag if a brand drops
oh you mean the skins? yea equal chance
Do named elites only spawn with cp4?
Yes
thank you
Guys is there a named shotgun that has the perfect vindictive talent?
Nope.
If you're ever curious, there's a list of every single named item (gear and gun) 📌 pinned over in #td2-build-advice > spreadsheet.
Afternoon Zephyr,sanitizer
Hello, I have a probably dumb question, but do the hunters in NYC (Trip, Lucky, Veil and Paranoid) have checkpoints? Like if I shoot the first six targets, can I then leave the session and join someone elses game, or do you really have to do it in one sitting?
No checkpoints
god, this is gonna suck... but at least now I know for sure, thank you
Do it on normal mode so it's much easier
is there a guide on what to do if you're in the "end-game"
i'm picking up the game after a long time and...surprise surprise i don't know what to do
got the season going and you have manhunt going,raids ,summit,countdown
I, too, recently came back and there was a lot of things to do in which I felt quite overwhelmed.
A good start is WONY. You got it by any chance?
i already beat that
If that's the case, and you have the SHD watch, you could focus on your optimal build and gear. If you've figured out what playstyle you enjoy playing with, figure out what pieces you need and grind like there's no tomorrow 😂
where can i look to find a build?
End game after WONY is literally just improving your gear and builds and getting more improved and improving more until the end of time 
#td2-build-advice
Check the pinned section for a spreadsheet with build suggestions and advice.
If the rewards of a CP4 only show crafting materials and field recon data, have I collected all possible BPs?
You can check by going to your Crafting Table and checking out all the possible Blueprints there.
If any uncollected ones mention "CP 3/4" as a reward location, keep going.
should i save the supply room crate for when i reach level 30?
It seems that Ive gotten 99%, the only ones left being from the raids
Cool.
Make sure you check the "mods" section, as that's where most of them are.
@azure turtle run an iron horse and your all set
does IH also give DH?
Nop
time to get my feet wet then
I think you might be playing the game wrong
?
wet feet aren't usually a prerequisite. You may wish to check your watercooling for leaks
:|
does countdown have difficulty?
no, its just a fixed difficulty heroic ish
My game never stop crashing 😄
Can we get td2 for fricken ps5 please. Tired of these ps4 bugs.
It already has a ps5 next gen upgrade… for a few months now.
does btsu and future perfect conflict or can you use both in turn
O/C doesnt stack, you can use FP to get you to T6 but then you have a choice of which O/C you proc
I have a problem where Roosevelt Island Nemesis part is not dropping for completing invaded stronghold. 5 completions in on any difficulty from normal to challenging and I'm running out of patience. anyone has any solution to this?
consecutive overcharge not simultaneous
is a nemesis in your inventory or stash currently?
I have one in the stash
put it in the inv of another character, may be affecting the loot drop
It's stupid shit same as with regulus. This game is truly stupid
Yea those exotic crafting parts, will not drop if you already have the weapon on you or your stash (works for all crafted parts).
someone know about farming LV SHD in civic center?
i see my friend in a civic center and level up 5-8 min per 1 level SHD, i need to know but he didn't tell me
is there match making criteria in Div 2?
Sounds like floor 10 summit is way faster
it is , 30-40s per floor clear
I was doing solo legendary with the guardians event in under 1:30
was gonna say, 30m is a bit slow XD
I even did a run with an all red perfect GC build
So I saw something about Hunters hacking your skills, went looking around online...I was originally going to do a technician drone/turret build, is that build basically useless because of Hunters? Should I just give up on a "pet" build?
can you turn the protector buff on for legendary?
drone/turret is good but not on countdown. im perplexed when i see people run drone/turrets there when there are over 1k shd on countdown.
Well I have a hand disability so easy and convenient are somewhat mandatory :p Also, I finished the story finally. Once I do the WT1 tusk missions that's basically it for post-story, right? Go to DLC after that?
Turret+Drone is for frustration-less legendary
If you want to use other builds, more power to you
Yes
I may just be bad at the game but I feel like they are the only ones that actually serve a purpose lol. I don't find the other abilities as handy.
Oh I don't mean the skills suck, I mean the builds people make around them are complete garbage. T0 Assault Turret can take on 1000 NPCs at once, it's good at that for sure
😄
I just can't help but think, whenever I see a different skill, "Why use that when I can use this (turret)?"
Guys s it better to spec into a crit build or a headshot damage build? Like when you have crit build, even headshots can crit no?
Depends on what you are doing
Headshot builds deal more damage, but you need to hit heads. Not everything has a head (unless you run archilles)
Headshot crits
so its not better to run a build like 50% crit chance, 170% crit dmg and approximately 60% headshot damage, than to run a 170% headshot dmg build with no crit?
In DZ I believe there are only 2 kinds of PvPers, those who aim heads and those who dont
im talking in build only
a lot of people run shields on dz. might as well go for headshots lol
There are basic crit modifiers...
what do u mean?
CHC/CHD can come natively from weapons, watch, specialisation and other stuff
You just have less of Crits
HSD builds generally work better in PvP
That wasn't my question, my question is, mathematically, isn't it better to have a 50% CHC, 170% CHD and 60%+ headshot damage build than just a flat 160% or 170% headshot damage build
if headshot crits too
'cause CHC/CHD buffs headshots
50chc 170chd 60hsd build hmm, dun think possible
but not the other way around right?
its possible i'm watching a video of a build that has that
49% CHC, 150% CHD, 85% headshot dmg
yes all high ends but catharsis and eagle bearer
So mathematically, which one is better?
No idea
Does someone know?
CHD and HSD are added together in the damage formula
This reminds me to recalibrate some attributes of my FMJ build to HSD from CHC
This meaning for max damage you stack 1 but not both ^
So chc + chd or HSD and handling (are the combos)
You said this is a PvP build right? Go for the crit build, trust me
😃
should I still go for crit?
nope go hsd ofc
don't troll me, you just said go for the crit build
if you're that confident in hitting headshots lol
I'm just trying to figure out whats best in theory
Unless you are a complete god at headshots 24/7, crit will always out dps Headshots.
The theory is that headshots always do more damage
if you hit the head 😆
Yes theory
Yeah, the theory. Actual field work is different
CHC and CHD until you maxed out CHC (weapon CHC first), do HSD/Handling on gears/gearmods for those you can't do CHC I guess
You're gonna have to hit those headshots while someone is running around, there's camera shake from explosions and getting shot, ADS gets removed because of status, etc.
no no he's on pc, he has a mouse AND a keyboard for crying out loud!
SURELY he will only hit headshots
lol
Fire will make him hipfire, no?
you're funny
thanks for your input guys, I got my questions answered 🙂
Crits are far safer. If you're in a team, sure, have someone with headshots only.
While others are fighting, you can pop heads without having to worry much.
Even for EB, you still run crit builds as it's more dps then HSD builds in actual use.
Oh, definitely.
EB is just great because it's a huge advantage if you start the fight with Tenacity.
Non sniper HSD builds are purely for fun :) but are very fun !
I want to do some DZ at some point, with a group. Cause screw doing it alone.
Correct but crit build gets you that buff faster then HSD build.
so if I play solo i'd rather go crit build yes?
If you want higher dps go crit build.
If you want lower dps but "more fun" go HSD build.
"more fun" as in?
If you want to actually have fun and not be stressed out of your life in DZ, get a group.
'cause you're still gonna try to headshot with a crit build right @foggy needle
Nothing more frustrating than getting the drop you want and then getting wrecked by a group of rogues.
Regardless of build, you always aim for heads if/when you can hit it, it's just not always an option.
As in 1fun + 2fun = 4 fun total 🥳
Hold that thought
Check build advice
Thats 3fun 
Once i get all items from the apparel cache (not the event one) can i still open it over and over for textiles?
Guys why are the core attributes I get only red (damage)? Does it depend on the gear? or is it pure RNG?
@narrow kraken yep I've got over999 of them I open 100 whenever I'm on
Oooh good shit ty <3
@olive adder 75 percent gear 25 pure rng
Depends on brand, or the gearset, or even which piece in gearset in one case
Fenrir chestpiece for ex? Always get red core attribute
I can name which one has what core but there's details in 📌 in #td2-build-advice
The spreadsheet
Just reached shd level 1000, what are the “secrets” of the watch that was indicated when you first complete warlords ?
Msv should let global events be in raids to make it more fun 😆
Maybe disable leaderboard if ge is active
Hi, what means the stat "Status Effects"? Extra duration the enemy gets the status effect, status effect damage?
Both
Does the Elite Agent pack inside the Ultimate Edition give extra stash space beyond what you can already get in the game by other means?
Hm, I think I just answered this from a 2019 article... the extra stash space from the Elite Agent Pack looks like it was just a headstart for anyone who was jumping in, but it's not above and beyond normal campaign + endgame stash capacity.
Yeah, we're actually not getting a bigger stash
Or so I heard someone say someone from Massive saying, because server issues of raising every player's stash or something
Yeah it makes sense. Inventory/database load is a big issue for MMORPGs too, so I've heard.
Where is the best place to farm ?
Is it worth the time to grind all the stars in the guardians event to buy exotic caches? I just need 11 more stars to finish Tier 10 reward. If I want, I can complete all of the objectives. But it feels too grindy, although the reward is exotic cache
it's only worth it if you don't feel forced to play through to get the reward. If you think yes, let's do this, then yea go for it, but if you're like getting fed up of the grind then just forget it
Ok thanks
There's easier ways to get Exotic Caches too...
There's a donate project you can do to get an Exotic Chest every week.
it takes like 5 seconds to donate
why?
just complete the project with your main, and receive your cache
unless i'm missing something...
yea sure
f that 😆
I'm not grinding Expertise, I'm just gonna let it go up on it's own through donations. level 8 already so it won't take too long. Upgrades are another thing I won't grind
the status effect attribute affects both damage and duration of statuses right
yes
shiiiiiit - i have 190 Ex. components
not gonna last long
but i want Regulus, M870, White Death, Mantis and Nemesis upgraded first
Someone loves their headhunting
I k now right - but it makes the biggest difference to those builds because of the way HH works.
@nimble spruce
Yeah the first weapon I started upgrading was my mantis for that very reason, just laughing at how many different hh weapons you use
Shotguns and HH is naughty
Do I need WONY to get the Heartbreaker set?
Yes, afaik you need WONY to access anything added after WONY was released. It's definitely worth getting if you enjoy the game, and is frequently on sale
Is proficiency based on xp? i.e., faster on higher difficulty/directives?
Thanks. So no advantage over running through normal?
Not in terms of proficiency, obviously you'll get more shd levels and better loot on a higher difficulty
I'd recommend challenging, because it stops you getting purple items in loot (and you can't donate them to proficiency)
But if normal is far faster, then just stick with that for now
where do i farm for coyotes mask
target mask drops on countdown, summit or areas with mask drops. also exotic caches
How quickly do support/group oriented brands and gearsets gain proficiency? I've gotten proficiency with Negotiators', Heartbreaker, Hunters' Fury, Eclipse Protocol and Ongoing Directive decently quickly for the time I've spent in the game since Expertise was introduced, but if I were to play a healer build with Future Initiative or using True Patriot to apply debuffs to enemies rather than killing them outright in a party, how long would that take me?
the xp is exactly the same but is still gained on kills, so those support builds kill less= less xp gained. of course can always donate which is the same for all.
Well, between the inability to donate from anywhere not your inventory and DZ target loot being broken, the masterplan to donate everything in a 5.11 DZ that wasn't Deathgrips is dead before it even started
Is the Proficient donation requirement for brand and gear sets still 100 pieces? https://old.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/tv4nqr/proficency_costs_and_my_findings/
um well tht is PTS math, and i know donating had a change so not sure when the math is.
i want to get hard wired for a goal project hard wired""
at which difficult must i complete the missions?
mention me back for answers pls
drops on any difficulty. and farming goal is on the highest difficulty and most directives you can still speed run
Does the Catharsis mask drop in targeted loot from Countdown??
the new exotics im not sure if they are in target loot, they were added, removed, added, removed that im not sure atm.
they are still in the Exotic cache though and you get 1 from the season track.
Sweet good to know. Any tips for a new player on quick leveling for the season?
dont worry about the levels just play the game, the levels come 😄
They are in general loot pool still
Does anyone know why I didn't receive a exotic from the pass?
season pass doesnt grant you and exotic, the season track does but once you reach the required unlock level.
teammate kills also level your proficiency, albeit a bit slower, so support builds will still level up when playing in groups
Afternoon Kettle
hey saph
why is it when i disconnect from a heroic mission i end up getting kicked
might be an auto-kick (depending on how long it took you to reconnect, what with the game being so slow to boot these days) or the other players just got tired of being one short and wanted a replacement
it's not even 2 minutes. there's no way they would kick me that fast. and i'm assuming auto-kick happens instantly because it doesn't matter how fast i reconnect, i still get removed
It's probably the latter in which the group leader gets impatient and immediately kicks the DC'd player out of the group so they can matchmake for a new member before the boss. That DC timer is much longer than 2 minutes, I guarantee you.
how do I obtain the Oiled Hammer Guards? I did the quest when the holster originally released but I dont remember how to get the final part. Ive looked it up and seen Outcast CP4 but no CP4 has given me it
Unrelated but floor 10 farming not giving xp/loot? I kill boss, no xp no loot
You clear the floor, not just kill the boss
apparently it's because in heroic there's no checkpoint, and because of that, it can't respawn me apparently?
And the boss will only give loot the first time every floor reset
And by reset I mean going back to lobby and back to the floor, which only works if it wasn't completed
Thus making dedicated exp farm and dedicated loot farm incompatible
I thought clearing the floor prevented you from farming it?
Farming loot, but not exp. People farm exp for the most part in floor 10
But that's kinda weird because you're not respawning. You're connecting back into the session due to a network connection issue that is completely out of your control (unless the local wifi or box is messed up)
Like if you were wiped before you DC'd, that still is about reconnecting anyway. It's just counterintuitive, imo
thats why im confused. my wifi seems to act up when i play D2 specifically, which may sound weird but i tend to disconnect, and it's just the game but my house
I've had a few cases when I DC'd in the middle of missions or anytime. Delta-03 errors, iirc. But I don't have any issues with my network connection. It's been inconsistent lately since the TU15 release and I can only hope that things settle down again soon enough.
im assuming it's something on my end if it's enough to basically tell my laptop there is literally no wifi connections available at times. I just feel like there is NO way they can kick me that fast when they were still looking for people
So will I only be able to get XP from F10 then?
I dont get loot, only ammo, craft mats, and special ammo :(
Guys is there a way to know which example has a certain talent I'm looking for? (named weapons) like a database somewhere to see which weapon has which talent as a named weapon
all that is in the spreadsheet in the pinned comments in #td2-build-advice
Can someone explain stability vs accuracy to me? Stability is pure recoil and accuracy is the little dot in the crosshair that moves?
(For an AR/Smg)
stability reduces the vertical recoil on weapons, accuracy reduces how far off the centre the shots can fall
ok nice
I feel like accuracy is so much better on AR's damn
Are stability/accuracy stats on weapons completely random for each gun/named gun/exotic?
each gun variant has its set acc and stab, they never vary for the same item
and that stat increases on the weapon when you increase your stability + accuracy in the watch right?
yes, in the description the bars are with your stats added in, so they grow if for example you have allot of weap handling
but the base acc and stab of that item is always the same between that same gun variant
thx dude 🙂
any idea why app is crashing constantly? directx is off
Guys the C79 Scope how does it work? Can you zoom in with it?
Because compared to any other attachment (scope) I put, it has the same "hipfire zoom" when I aim
As long as a scope mentions a magnification, then you can zoom in.
The default key is "Tab" while aimed.
guys question for anyone if you know. does the talent spotter works for ally or only the talent holder?
I'm using a shotgun and a rifle. I think it's kinda slow, should I replace shotgun with an automatic weapon? Shotgun has bomb damage though.
Only the person with the talent equipped
The only way to make pulse amplify damage is to overcharge the skill that applies it
If I won't have time to do all weekly and daily challenges, does any of the projects stand out in terms of rewards??
the weekly shd requisition for the exotic cache is an easy one to do, and exotic components will become very valuable as you upgrade items to higher expertise levels so it's worth stockpiling them early
Thanks @nimble spruce
I also do material donation cause that's like the easiest weekly challenge
Is it important to complete all the project that included blueprint?
i dont've NYC DLC
& why should i play raid i still didnt get it
you don't have to play raids, there's a couple of exotic weapons you can't get anywhere else but you'll manage just fine without them
I wouldn't mind doing the raids but, yea
anything under 8x doesn't auto-zoom in when you ADS (i.e. C79, ACOG)
8x and above auto-zoom in when you ADS (CQBSS, VX-12, Digital scope)
(this was probably a response to the way div1 worked, where no scopes auto-zoomed at all when you ADS, and you had to remember to click the zoom button to look down the scope)
Best way to skill expertise level up fast as possible?
That's not really why they did it, it's tied to "balance" by locking the higher HSD scopes to a zoom
You'd just end up seeing most people running those scopes if they could third person with them since their numerical boost reasonably outweighs the CHC 5% boost.
Sadly, the issue remains, now tied to nearly omnipresent CHC mods
I wish I could just toggle the medium scopes on outside of aiming
I can't even do some C79 sniping with a bolt-action without scoping out every damn shot
I'd agree. It would probably lead to more people using said scopes. Hopefully without becoming a div1 situation
how am i hitting 2-4m dmg in countdown with my m4
question: who thinks some of the attachments should be buffed?
like i see no reason why youd use the PRO sight that gives you 5% stability when you can have 5% weapon handling, same thing for 3% headshot and crit damage mods unless youre already at your crit cap
What's better vigilance or bloodsucker
depends
what are you trying to do
i usually see vigilance more so im guessing in most cases that
I go with the cover and weapon tactic, I was thinking this perk of bloodsucker more useful for the blazing tank type of tactic
I mean vigilance gives you 25% bonus damage with weapons if you use a sniper that does 100k damage that perk will ad another 25k on top of it
come to think of it bloodsucker is rarely used from what ive seen
though you probably could make it work
id just go with vigi
If you use crusader with an armor build its useful but that type of tactic needs you to be close range
Do gear sets level up the proficiency rank the higher the attributes?
Nope, even.
Is there a difference between cp, summit, raids, countdown etc that's faster than the other?
countdown is stil the fastest i believe
Countdown and Summit have selectable Targeted Loot, cp's main benefit is the guaranteed named enemies on CP4 (and the blueprints if you need them) and Raids are kinda bad for farming, since you've got jobs to do in there, more-so than pure killing.
I don't want to farm, I want to just upgrade the rank
Your best bet to do that is to just "use" the Rank, not that it does much more than incredibly minor buffs anyway.
Countdown is incredibly simple to find groups for, since the ingame matchmaking takes all of 10 seconds.
Yeah, just some of the gearsets aren't suitable for countdown. It's only good for farming imo
I haven't tried countdowns yet but are they something that can be done solo?
Depends which mission in the countdown, in theory if you're fast enough. I've heard some claim they've done it with 2
You can "donate junk" to help increase the items that you don't have equipped in Countdown.
Just set the TL to the gearset you want and then boom.
Minutes/hours/days?
Team of 8 players, matchmaking ingame is incredibly fast, selectable TL.
Give it a go, lots of fun.
Maybe but I'm a ps4 player and I'm broke right now so yeah
Do we have any news on devs fixing the game instability/performance?
Given they don't communicate to us
Countdown is free if you own WONY.
@narrow kraken MSV are known for keeping their cards close to their chest, but right now there's a bunch of fixes over in #unofficial-troubleshooting, the reddit link in there helped fix mine, worth a shot.
Them keeping their cards close to their chest has caused many community members to give up on div2
Oh f me, i do own it I paid it a year or so ago cause I liked it and I wanted the new gadgets (just to be sure you mean warlords of newyork yes)
dw, it only dropped at the start of this Season, go dive in!
Nice first I have to finish the stuff I have to do as I deleted my old charater after I deal with that I'll start the countdown
Is there a way to manipulate the in-game time ?I want to do the noon saloon thing but I always seem to miss the right time
Nope, just have to wait.
Afternoon Kettle,
Oh ok, it was noon and I went out to look for the convoy but I didn't know where the bar was exactly so I missed it lol
Guys how does In Sync work without a damaging skill? Since it says using a non shield skill OR damaging skill (I tried putting my deflector drone but it didnt proc)
or is the defender drone considered as a "shield" skill?
What would be the most efficient way to kill 10 guardians with grenades. Im really struggling with this challenge
Why is matchmaking taking so long?
Stop it and start it again. Usually helps. Do it as many times as needed.
@fair bone when your waiting for the bar don't be to close
can you not replace the talents of some yellow gear?
Named ones have fixed talents, aside from The Mop
That one too, yeah
the clue is damaging skill actually there is a "or" there since the patch, but they removed the in sync triggering from skill deployment as it did before (for example it triggered when you swapped to a foam chem), so its basicly just a wrong description, to my current knowledge its only damaging an enemy with a skill that triggers the skill part
set your world to normal, get a pretty tanky build, single out a gaurdian, preferably a red (for purple or yellows you have to shoot them a bit to get the health down), foam them in place with the foam chem, and grenade them with the concussion grenade (the basic grenade, it does allot more dmg)
also for some global events you can use the grenade launcher for grenade kills, but not this global event, so just for in the future, always check if the grenade launcher works first as that is much easier
Thanks, i will try that
i just did the friend refferal program with my friend but i see no rewards in my inventory, is it took a long time for the item to appear in inventory or you need to do something beside playing 3 mission for the rewards to appear?
how can i check level
