division-universe

[candid rock]

I got it, thanks 😃

[opaque monolith]

@serene seal I have killed 10 hunters and have 5 keys... soo something is wrong definitely

[south prawn]

can someone give me a brief idea of the hunters? dont want to get spoiled as to how exactly you get to them, just the general idea - like a starting point

[swift night]

You'll need to solve cyphers and puzzles in the open world to summon them, typically at night.

[covert wigeon]

Sigh these cyphers are so annoying, no ideas left

Anyone else found something to finish the monument cypher or the metamorphe cypher?

[sour spindle]

aer there some requirements to summong hunters? I tried the downtown east one but i didnt spawn it.

do i need to be lvl 30?

[frigid plover]

type in div2 hunter mask on youtube - enjoy the numerous videos with full guides.

[swift night]

What about dropping a pulse at the First Division memorial. The cypher says to "scan" right?

[covert wigeon]

@swift night could try, but none of the other cyphers have certain gear or equipment requirements so id say its unlikely. Definitely worth a try though!

We know all but the last step for the monument

Just need to figure out what they mean by the circle on the screen

[swift night]

It has to be at the big red one memorial. I can't think of anything else

[cold bramble]

Hi, are there a respawn cycle on the hunters or are they one time thing? that is on your own map. I have got 10 hunters now but only 4 ivory keys

[serene seal]

@opaque monolith when killing multiple Hunters, only one drops the key. If you did the 4-Hunter Party tree and the last two that took forever, you'll only have 5 keys. Houwever that only leaves 2 Hunters, and 3 keys, so perhaps you didn't get the key as a reward at one point. I'd recommend going on a friend's session and killing his Hunters.

I am not 100% certain on everything I listed, I'm just wording it by how it's happened to me.

[cold bramble]

i have only got keys with a mask, no trop after the first kill

[serene seal]

Well yeah, 8 keys is required for the Ivory Crate, so they only have 8 key drops. The spawn with two Hunters most likely give one each, will update tonight as I have a friend that's trying to go for the crate too

[swift night]

I believe the keys are random drops, from a post on Reddit someone has done the Christmas tree hunters 3 times, and had different key drops each time.

[void frost]

I’m world tier 3, is the castle settlement still supposed to look like shit?

Greyed out and all

[south prawn]

yes

its destroyed

[swift night]

Did you not see the DC62 mortar attack?

[void frost]

Thought it would get fixed at some point during the story, you know like how theater and campus get upgraded

[thorn spoke]

Can the black tusk take over settlements?

[brazen flame]

nope that settlement got pretty much unlivable

and no @thorn spoke

[swift night]

DZ West is still a steaming pile 6 months after their DC62 spill. Maybe we can get it back later, but it's way too soon to do anything there.

[south prawn]

does someone have a link to the ciphers without any solution to them?

[thorn spoke]

I hope castle will be salvageable in future dlc

My biggest motivation to do side quests was to see how the settlements got better

[inland prawn]

there are hidden communities in greater need of your support than the abandonned castle.

[swift night]

Like those weird Christians in the basement!

[lusty salmon]

What ilvl can drop in clan chest ?

[cold bramble]

@summer knot Night time is 9pm-5am, you can see the exact time in photo mode on the right hand side

[fringe socket]

Anyone still with Hyena keys,
i need two parts for the smg,
but it seems like my boxes in underground not respawning.

[rose lantern]

spotted a cheating clan on conflict , USA (idk what the full name is or if its just USA)...
one guy 1 shotted 3 people one by one with an smg (that was just one case in the battle that was too obvious)

was fun.. not going to play conflict anytime soon.

[civic rivet]

Can someone explain to me what all these keys people are trying to get are for?

[glass aurora]

They unlock faction chests, you can find them around maps and on missions and can be found easily underground in the tunnels

I dont know about the drops but apparently seems like they give good lootm

[cold bramble]

@civic rivet You can spawn hunters within the game and if you kill them they drop Ivory keys. You need 8 keys to open up a case within the White house base. The case is on the right hand side, ground floor half way on the right corridor

[civic rivet]

Ty!

[swift night]

There are also unique exotics tied to the faction lock boxes

[south prawn]

are there any other requirements for the pavillion hunter? i pull the lever - the lights on the tree turn on i go down but nothing happens except the lights turning off after a few seconds

[errant furnace]

Did you run around the tree

[south prawn]

yes

[north belfry]

@south prawn it took awhile i kinda just kept walking and then poof he spawned in front of me and yeeted my ass

[serene seal]

You have to stand next to the tree for ten seconds

[random tiger]

anyone know why after the first time i tried to get the ghost mask he hasnt respawned in like 2 days

[serene seal]

Was it night time when you tried?

[random tiger]

yeah

got the Specter no problem but the ghost hunter wont show

[serene seal]

Jog my memory, which area was the ghost Hunter at?

[random tiger]

in the refugee camp up on a crate

[serene seal]

Hmm, is it one of the last two found? Haven't done or heard of that one year

*yet

[random tiger]

yeah its one of the last two

[serene seal]

Then I wouldn't know, haven't looked into those two myself yet.

[random tiger]

damn, well thanks anyway

[serene seal]

There could be a specific rule or prerequisite thing that needs done, like with the ghoul mask. I can ask my friend if he knows anything though

[random tiger]

you theres this whole round about sequence you need to do for spectre and ghost

[weak moth]

i want ghoul mask bad

[random tiger]

but after you do it its unlocked for good so you can just hit a button and go try to kill them again

but stupid ghost wont spawn

[serene seal]

Have you relogged? As in close then open the game completely?

[random tiger]

yeah, its been 2 actual days ive been trying to get this bastard

[fiery oasis]

So erm, Ubi Devs you may want to have a relook at the Space Admin final boss on hard, just had to do it 5 or 6 times its that tanky with the constantly respawn on fresh mobs. god danm.

[serene seal]

I'll be on at 10 PM CDT, so about 12 hours (got school then work) if you're still on we could do it on my session, see if he'll spawn

[real vale]

has anyone tried the commendations complete the mission whole looting 10

10 boxes that was, I presume restocks don’t count

[jagged igloo]

what is a "no honor Darkzone perk required?" i did the SHD hijack thingy..

[swift night]

You need the perk called "no honor"?

[jagged igloo]

but im so confused

i have unlocked all perks..

[real vale]

level 50 dz is all tiers

[swift night]

Yeah but is it one of the ones where you have to choose?

[jagged igloo]

choose where? ;p

[real vale]

some have a row of 3 but u can only pick 1

[jagged igloo]

where can you pick?

this is my first time in the darkzone and i have no idea

[real vale]

dz lady at Wh

[jagged igloo]

its also kinda stupid they dont tell you before you do the mission ;p

[real vale]

they tell you when you unlock the dz lady lol

[jagged igloo]

and when do i unlock the dz lady?

or is it like a safehouse?

[swift night]

Bruh.

[real vale]

lol

[jagged igloo]

say it!!

😛

[void frost]

She’s at the theater settlement if you didn’t recruit her yet, but since you got access to the DZ she should be on 2nd floor of white house

[mortal torrent]

@random tiger I have the same problem he won't spawn for me where the other one does

[meager pine]

How many total settlements are there other than theater?

[void frost]

Campus and castle idk what else

[swift night]

There are two. Campus and Theatre, unless you include the white House

[cold bramble]

Are we supposed to be able to solo world tier 4, alert 4 control points? They are pretty brutal, haha.

[safe imp]

yes

they aren't meant to be easy

[real vale]

do we have a list of mission obtainable weapon skins

as in their locations

I have a few but the bank mission one is currently bugged

[safe wren]

@cold bramble haha I did try one earlier today. Holy it was brutal! 😄

[meager pine]

Oh yeah I would honestly say if you really want to play difficult play by yourself, that's how I played the whole demo and if more than 1 person joined me I didnt feel challenged

[bleak tulip]

What gear score is highest?

[fluid tangle]

Heya, anyonw knows whats the required level to fight the hunters?

[lusty salmon]

how can i get weapon higher than 450 ? all my other stuff is 465

[simple swift]

I think I remember someone saying that they encountered hunters as early as level 15 @fluid tangle

So how does one know when they're changing WTs? Is it a special mission or the last story mission?

[safe imp]

theres a side mission that introduces you to a hunter

(BTW it is possible to kill the hunter if u decide to do the mission when u unlock specializations)

[wet frost]

Where is agent Kelso in the Castle settlement?

[gusty flame]

Just found 2 hunters while looking for the last 2 masks, they were masks I already have wtf

[fluid tangle]

Yeah there was a mission of a hunter but u wont be able to kill it

But mainly getring the mask, whay level so i need to be

[gusty flame]

can do it anylevel, at around level 30 you have a good chance of not dying

and I wasnt talking ab the mission

[fluid tangle]

Hmmm alrghty then, ill try doing it when i go online, Thanks!

[swift night]

You can go back and summon the Hunter from the mission later on, too.

[cold bramble]

Do we ever get any further leads on Agent Edwards case?

[errant furnace]

About?

[cold bramble]

The agent that got brutally murdered by what i suspect is a rogue agent

[errant furnace]

No it was a Hunter

[cold bramble]

Oh a hunter?

[errant furnace]

Yes he has a ballistic mask

[cold bramble]

but he had the Division gear on him, the watch n shit

[errant furnace]

Yeah, the Hunters kill agents and take their washes

[cold bramble]

Never saw his face, nor did i see a mask

How do we get the quest to find em and chase em then?

[gusty flame]

https://imgur.com/a/BzAa3OW I notice that the yellow balloon outside of it is the same as the one next to the switch in the washington monument basement, This place also has a switch which has "Check In" written above it and you can interact with it

[errant furnace]

That’s part of the hydden hotels

[gusty flame]

you know where the others are?

[swift night]

https://i.imgur.com/C9BaVQB.png

@cold bramble

[cold bramble]

oh snap

they look cool tho

[swift night]

They're coming for your watch

[cold bramble]

they better know how to track me then

[lusty salmon]

how can i get 465 weapons or armor higher than 465 😦

[swift night]

465 is the WT4 hard cap

[lusty salmon]

i´ve seen ppl with 468 gear

https://gyazo.com/3f650fbebec91b518529e5bad39315a0

[glacial pier]

hey yo is anybody getting clipped through the floor in the mission that you get when you first go to the theatre

[cold bramble]

What is the gear level for WT1?

[safe imp]

@lusty salmon ive had level 460 gear drop for me lol

[lusty salmon]

from what ?

[safe imp]

Loot boxes; NPCs

[lusty salmon]

NPC´s never

[safe imp]

it happens

to be honest its more reliable just to open boxes for stuff since ur more likely to get something thats not a mod

[west sky]

when do black tusk invade, i'm level 30 and they haven't yet. I got a pop up saying they invaded but no cut scene on top of the fact that i haven't seen them

[cold bramble]

they invade when you complete the story

I guess ubisoft expected people to be below lvl 30 when they complete the story or something

[west sky]

does that include strongholds?

[cold bramble]

Yeah, the 3 strongholds are on story mode for the first run you do

[west sky]

thx

[real vale]

anyone know why the loot room for the weapon skin is bugged in the bank mission ?

[lost charm]

anyone have any idea when will world tier 5 be launched?

[swift night]

Nobody knows

[real vale]

what does a hyena box give ?

[safe imp]

depends on which box (more specifically where it is)

[real vale]

box by the orange crate for weapon skin

[safe imp]

never opened it before :P

[real vale]

I heard varying results as to whether the skins are a one time or you can go back later and shoot for another skin

[safe imp]

yeah idk never seen it before

[real vale]

basically I saw a guide on reddit

you go to the locations and shoot the orange box for a skin

[errant furnace]

You can get more but it’s not guaranteed

[strange hamlet]

wtf since when the chainsaw guy is not only in sewers D:

i found him in random building , see picture http://prntscr.com/mzmavd

[safe imp]

ye they spawn outside when its night

[strange hamlet]

jesus fucking christ he scared me shitless xD

[latent star]

i have a glitch on examining fluffy's body.... does anyone know how to fix?

[real vale]

so basically if you were to go back in say 24 hours you might get nothing

[latent star]

nvm fixed it

[real vale]

good session got 4 keys in that sewers

[magic flax]

apparently i have to lfg in here soooo. need 1-2 to do masks with...

group 17

[real vale]

be careful or the mods may delete your post for wrong room

[magic flax]

i was told to post here because its considered "spoilers"

[swift night]

That's a stupid call

[sacred wharf]

@magic flax you're dumb not

[magic flax]

? uh k

@lean summit so uh ya wrong

[ionic vortex]

holy shit just did the 1v1 side mission, is that a so called hunter ? i didn't play divison 1

[bitter zenith]

@real vale the hyena caches inside some of the story missions have a chance to drop a part for exotic SMG

[errant furnace]

@ionic vortex yes

Are you scared?

[lean summit]

@magic flax ask mods not other players ...

[sonic trail]

where do you get hyena keys from?

[daring shoal]

any tips for finding items with devastating talent

for the project

[sage iron]

how to make the side mission worksite community??

[bitter zenith]

@sonic trail underground, boxes on the wall. On the map go to all the spots with a down areow.

Arrow*

[sage iron]

oh ok the mission dont load

[ionic vortex]

yes i am scared

can we be hunted by multiple hunters at the same time ?

[errant furnace]

Yes

[ionic vortex]

damn

[real vale]

yeh got a smg part from hotel mission

[bitter zenith]

@ionic vortex you have to trigger them yourself, they wont just jump you unless you do something to activate them.

[ionic vortex]

alright i'll keep that for lvl 30 then !

[bitter zenith]

@ionic vortex not saying you wont accidentally activate one. That happened to me and a friend. Big "uh oh" moment.

[ionic vortex]

haha i imagine you got wrecked

or were you already geared up

[bitter zenith]

Oh yeah, we killed him but it was not easy. We spent 2.5 hours killing one hunter. One of them wasnt that bad.

[ionic vortex]

wow 2h30 ? daaamn

[bitter zenith]

One of them chased us into our story mission and wouldn't stop following us.

[ionic vortex]

does he chase you both even if you're in safe house ?

[bitter zenith]

We gave up on him but he did not give up on us. Lol

[swift night]

Me at level 28 by friends at level 15 tried to do a Hunter last week. It took an hour.

[bitter zenith]

Idk, but one of them guarded the exit to the safe house.

[ionic vortex]

welp i can't wait to meet one accidentally

[swift night]

You won't. Might see one, but they won't fight you unless you trigger them

[bitter zenith]

They dont despawn if you die either. They will stay till you restart game of leave server.

[ionic vortex]

i see

[bitter zenith]

@swift night you will accidentally find one if you click too much stuff. That's how we found one.

[swift night]

They stalk you in the night. If you have a good eye you can see them, but if you shoot at them they run and disappear

Lol, that's on you.

[cold bramble]

Speaking of people stalking you at night, do you guys get attacked by like a pack of four wearing black? I don't think they're True Sons, and they're definitely not Hyenas, but they are killable

I want to say they're like two rushers and two engineers? Idk, they just kinda show up, attack, and then I blow through them

[swift night]

Yes. Happened to me once. They're flagged as "ambushing". They lock doors on you and kill the lights if you're inside, too. It was horrifying

[cold bramble]

Oh no kidding?

[swift night]

Yeah. I screamed like a child, because I was trying to trigger a Hunter at the time and having trouble

[bitter zenith]

It was like "what's this button do?"...hmmm "I know it has to do something..."... moments later. "Another button"...."uh oh...i know what they do!".

[swift night]

Until the doors shut themselves and the lights went out when I tried to open it.

[cold bramble]

Huh

Fortunately they're not too hard, but then again I haven't "beat" the game yet

[ionic vortex]

for me the hud getting blurry and all is what freaks me out

and the lights going out also

[cold bramble]

The thing is that they're not Hunters near as I can tell. As far as I remember, they're all red-bar enemies.

[swift night]

No they're not hunters. Mine were hyenas

[bitter zenith]

Yes, there is hunters, then there is also some other rogue faction of spooky guys.

[ionic vortex]

are hunters just rogue division agents ?

[cold bramble]

Yeah, that must be what I keep running up against. Some other factions

[ionic vortex]

they spooky with all theirs watches

[errant furnace]

Hunters are not rogue agents

[ionic vortex]

ah ok

[bitter zenith]

@ionic vortex for lack of time to fully explain them, yes...ish

[errant furnace]

Based on the echo that plays near Lincoln Memorial, they are Black Tusk Special Unit

[glad plume]

The HELL was that mission with the Distress Signal? Some ass just shocked me and walked out TF?

[ionic vortex]

yeah that's a hunter !

[errant furnace]

He’s on to you. He can kill you at any time. Be afraid.

[ionic vortex]

first time ? hehe

[glad plume]

He kicked my ass so hard... god damn

[errant furnace]

This is a horror game.

[glad plume]

First time yeah D:, Also dont say I've just unlocked a Resident evil type Mr.X now...

hovers over the uninstall button with fear

[molten orchid]

How do you reach the castle

[cold bramble]

So wait how long has Black Tusk been doing stuff then? The Hunters first showed up in New York 7 in-game months ago

[swift night]

I would love a raid or incursion on a Hunter nest. Get me some lore!

[molten orchid]

Gates are locked and the one room you can’t see shit

[ionic vortex]

wait i haven't even seen a single balck tusk yet (only lvl 26 for now)

aren't they part of the four factions that fight over territory ?

[cold bramble]

Level 16? I think? Maybe I'm 17, but I'm aware of what happens in the end-game

At least vaguely.

[swift night]

The Gunners hunters are not Black Tusk

[errant furnace]

The hunters are related to BTSU

[swift night]

Gonna need some hard proof there.

[errant furnace]

The echo you get for reflecting pool

[swift night]

Far as I've been able to find they're not at all

[real vale]

there are 4 keys in the sewers near the lincoln memorial

[errant furnace]

Those 3 are all wearing hunter masks.

[swift night]

Those guys that have been shadowing us all game? They're not hunters.

[bitter zenith]

Hunters are rogue first wave agents recruited by black tusk to prevent the destruction of the virus.

[swift night]

Again, gonna need a source

[cold bramble]

So, wait, does Black Tusk predate the virus? How long have they been doing things?

[swift night]

conjecture is fun and all, but to my knowledge there's never been hard evidence that they're BTSU or Rogue Agents.

Black Tusk is a govt. contractor, they're analogous to blackwater. They've probably been around a while

[cold bramble]

So, what, LMB but with a paycheck?

[swift night]

Precisely

LMB with the big boy toys

[cold bramble]

In a way that's kinda sad. It would have been interesting if Black Tusk was, idk, a rogue US Military unit that missed the virus because they were deployed overseas

Like an MEU running rogue or something

[swift night]

That'd be cool. I'm sure we're going to find out more on them in Tidal Basin, best I've been able to put together is they're invading DC for the Broad Spectrum Anti-Viral

[bitter zenith]

There is currently no information on where the Hunters come from, their identity, or affiliation. There are several theories about their origins;

They are or were Rogue First Wave Division Agents who may have acquired their high-end gear from the Dark Zone.

They may be a part of one of the various LMB splinter groups that formed after their defeat at the U.N. building and the death of Lieutenant Colonel Charles Bliss.

They could be Third Wave Division agents deployed into Manhattan in order to hunt down and kill all of the First Wave and Second Wave Division agents because they believe they all have gone rogue.

They could be conspiracy theorists and survivalists who are obsessed with the Division, believing that the Division has been sent to kill them for bearing witness to their activities.

[cold bramble]

Third Wave agents being ordered to kill all of the First and Second wavers is an interesting idea tbh

[swift night]

I don't think a third wave was ever called for. The First Wave was small, because the president didn't think the voters would like hearing about D51, and the second wave was everyone else because of the First Wave being badshit evil or dead.

[cold bramble]

Oh, actually, I picked up a phone call earlier today that describes the moment the Second Wave was ordered to go in, and it kind of implies that Louis Chang was the commander of that wave. If that's the case, who was the commander for the first wave?

[bitter zenith]

Whether or not, that is the copy/pasted lore. There is no true answer, only theories.

[swift night]

Louis Chang? Interesting I didn't know we had a name for who was in charge of us, esp. because D51 directly states we're answerable only to the president. If there's a leadership hierarchy to The Division that might certainly introduce new elements.

Do you know the name of the comms, by chance?

[cold bramble]

I'll look up the name the next time I'm on, but I found it south of the checkpoint south of the Castle

It's up on a ledge behind a locked gate you can shoot through

And Louis Chang was the "Division Commander" in Div 1 before he got SAM'd, but I thought that was more local authority, like he is the Division Commander for New York

[swift night]

I'll check it out. The one on why BTSU is in DC is in the sewers, I'll get you a name for that too.

[cold bramble]

What 'wave' are we in Washington?

[swift night]

Second wave, still

[cold bramble]

Were we? As far as we know, we could have been activated with the first wave and just hung out wherever until the network went down

[rancid moth]

technically we aren't an activated "wave", we are activated elsewhere then ordered to go to DC

[errant furnace]

I’ll get a picture of a hunter uniform

[cold bramble]

I wonder what the location is we are at the very start of the game

[swift night]

Possibly, really depends on how far the intro was away.

[rancid moth]

Most likely Virginia

[swift night]

D1 was only 7 months ago

[errant furnace]

We’re probably a first wave group from an area that didn’t get screwed over

[swift night]

I mean, we saw the Tidal Basin in the intro.

[errant furnace]

Because there’s no real reason to go rogue in the middle of nowhere

[cold bramble]

I mean even if it was right next door I don't think there's anything to suggest that we weren't from one wave over another.

Also I'm like 70% sure we'll be going back to that first settlement in the third DLC, just because some of the footage in the trailer looked familiar

[rancid moth]

Yeah the settlement in the intro was packed with agents and looked to be doing okay until the Black Tusk showed up

[errant furnace]

Rogue agents likely only occurred in big cities

[swift night]

Could've been a hub for actions in that area. Baltimore, or somewhere in VA.

[errant furnace]

It’s not Baltimore

[cold bramble]

It looked like a fairly rural port area. Small town.

[oblique dock]

More likely MD

[cold bramble]

MD being? im not from the USA so i have no idea why yall shorthand your towns and what they mean

[oblique dock]

Most government fallbacks are in Maryland

[rancid moth]

Either Maryland or Virginia. Any other location seems to be too far

[cold bramble]

Maryland is the state that is adjacent to/somewhat encapsulates Washington DC

[oblique dock]

MD is the state abbreviation for Maryland

[swift night]

@cold bramble it's called "Antiviral" and it's in the "Unknown" tab in collections.

[cold bramble]

The call that talks about what the Black Tusk are up to?

[swift night]

Narrated by Bardon Schaeffer, the leader of those BTSU rangers that are following us, talking with BTSU director

[cold bramble]

||Also is it just me or is Kelso totally going to backstab me by the time I'm level 30?||

[swift night]

||Nope, but I had the same feelings. She's just headstrong||

[cold bramble]

||just stubborn id say, feels normal||

||That's... a shock. Her SHD tech is rogue red, and she looks suspiciously like the woman who kills the Division agent in the port helmet cam cinematic||

[swift night]

||There was one cutscene where I was sure it was a precursor to going rogue, but it was nothing||

||Her SHD is red? I gotta go find her and check that... If it was she'd be D_E_A_D||

[cold bramble]

||Yes, it's particularly noticeable in some of the cutscenes introducing the Rooftop settlement. There are shots where both your and her SHD tech are in frame and hers is definitely a red color and yours is orange, so it isn't lighting||

[rancid moth]

||the port helmet cam is footage showing what the Black Tusk are doing on their way to DC, and that's destabilizing other areas||

[swift night]

||IDK I just rewatched the Castle cutscene, she's orange||

[cold bramble]

||The president going missing is worrying aswell||

Hang on a tick let me find the video

[swift night]

||Didn't Fae Lau say she was going to find out what happened to the president? Wonder if we'll see her in all her cast-bound glory||

||That helmet cam is from one of the horde mode maps in D1. Those are Second Wave agents for sure||

[cold bramble]

||Oh no kidding, that was NYC?||

[swift night]

I know it says "From outside DC" in the description but that's fucking Carrier for sure.

[formal latch]

Anyone done ghost mask? I'm saluting the grave at night time after I've accessed the computer and I'm not getting any static for doing so. It's not rocket science this is fn stupid.

[cold bramble]

https://youtu.be/7Npst-d_Myk?t=1027

[swift night]

The one at the flag pole?

[cold bramble]

This cutscene shows both yours and her SHD tech in the same lighting. Hers is definitely off in color

[formal latch]

The one where you salute the grave near the Washington Monument

[errant furnace]

Faye has a cameo in this game

[swift night]

idk man I'm seeing orange.

[cold bramble]

She has 2 different colour ones

the belt one is red, the backpack one is orange

[errant furnace]

She also lost her watch so it may be completely borked gear now 🤷

[cold bramble]

I'm seeing both as red

Wait what

Thats true^her watch broke in one of the missions

[errant furnace]

Like, are there spare watches?

[swift night]

Yeah, in the Potomac Event Center mission.

Ask the hunters, they've got some they can give you.

[errant furnace]

Do you take a dead agent’s watch? See them on graves all the time.

[cold bramble]

Well that happens well after the first real mission of the game, so idk. I'm still suspicious.

[errant furnace]

Probably coded to an individual agent

[swift night]

Would make the most sense. Don't want that tech getting out there just because Chuckles tried to eat his Chem Launcher.

[cold bramble]

I'd be willing to bet that, if she flips, she'll flip at the end of the first year of content

[swift night]

@formal latch the only salute one I know is way east near the NASA mission

[formal latch]

@swift night there's a video out with all 12 masks. This is the ghost one at the Washington Monument. Got to salute 3 graves. But it's not working for me.

[sonic spade]

I've gotten 6 hunters out of 12

[swift night]

Oh that one.

[sonic spade]

That one's finicky because there are 4 potential spawns for the 2 hunters

[formal latch]

Yea well the saluting part isn't working for me lol. I'm getting zero static.

[swift night]

Try moving around a little, it could be kinda finicky

[sonic spade]

Plus they don't attack you they run away once they spot you

[neat crown]

so how able to get the friggin 12 mask

[formal latch]

Oh I have I've been trying different spots for 10 minutes

[neat crown]

the hunters are not even there for like 1 sec and they gone wtf

[errant furnace]

The cipher texts unlock ways to fight them directly

The spooky hunters you can kill for masks as well but they’re the same as the cipher text hunters

[neat crown]

well how exactly :D?

[glass aurora]

@cold bramble the one recording I heard made me feel the same way

[errant furnace]

There’s a guide for 10 ofthe 12

The last 2 we haven’t broken the code so the only way is to cheese nuke them

[cold bramble]

Wait so the hunters dont actualy hunt you?

you have to hunt the hunters?

So they are prey not hunters. Kappa

[swift night]

They're hunting you, they just won't attack you until you figure out how to summon them.

[errant furnace]

The group of 4

[swift night]

Unrelated to all this but: https://i.imgur.com/GecIsgN.jpg?1 finally!

[cold bramble]

Nice

[fiery oasis]

Went a bit giddy when i grabbed this https://imgur.com/a/I0iyJnF

[safe imp]

@swift night ngl i been having trouble getting that lol

best way is prob just shoot 1 enemy and run away til they stop chasing

[swift night]

You a Sharpshooter?

[safe imp]

Ye

I keep underestimating the distance lol

[swift night]

M700, DZS Golf CP, Digi Scope at 16x. It has a rangefinder in the scope. Go to Washington Monument when it's under enemy control, shoot one enemy in the headm run back to the DZ, rinse and repeat

[safe imp]

oof

yeah thatll prob work

cuz they stop aggroing and are open to being shot at after ur out of combat

[swift night]

Yep. That was my mentality. Run away before they had the chance to fuck up my shot

[rotund wing]

How do we get all 8 ivory keys?
I killed all 12 of the hunters and I am missing 2 of the keys

[swift night]

Random drops

[real vale]

anyone still farming chatterbox

[mortal torrent]

Seeing as the Hyena keys are for the P90, will the other keys will be used for exotics 🤔

[safe imp]

@rotund wing join a friend that hasnt killed them yet

[rotund wing]

Ok

[cold bramble]

i have exotic parts for a pistol

[void cliff]

I'm hoping I don't have to do the DZ's unless I have to.

[fringe socket]

@real vale yeah. But need keys
My map not respawnded the key boxes yet.
U have keys ?

[real vale]

I will check what keys I got when we are allowed back in

[safe imp]

@fringe socket they are mandatory missions

[cinder wigeon]

Is reactivating the SHD network the end of the campaign?

I’m guessing I need to do strongholds to get black tusk? @here

[mortal torrent]

You know the recent new hunter masks, why am I getting hunters spawning which I've already killed?

[lunar mason]

why is dz south door not opening

when im in the man cave

?

[mortal torrent]

Don't suppose anyone knows if 'Devastating' is a armor talent or weapon talent?

[real vale]

so

what was that mission where you open the door and it completes instantly ?

[ripe loom]

@cinder wigeon If I remember right you need to finish the strongholds yes

[real vale]

I remember g. phillips was the mission

[oblique dock]

Are we allowed to attach photos here?

I have a question about a symbol that I don't know what it is

[solemn rapids]

don't think you can upload them here, but you can link them if they're on a website

[oblique dock]

This agent had a symbol next to his name that I never saw before

https://imgur.com/ukOKHh0

[solemn rapids]

that's a buff from something by the looks

[ripe loom]

Yeah it's a buff, seen plenty of them so far

[oblique dock]

It was throwing me off because it looked like the SHD logo in it

[ripe loom]

Yes it does

[solemn rapids]

Overlap is the name of it, they've got an equipped holstered weapon that's granting their current weapon a handling bonus.

[oblique dock]

Ah thanks

[real vale]

is the bank mission supposed to give a weapon skin ?

[lost gyro]

Ugh, finally

got the POS Roach down

[real vale]

still no D50 here

[rotund wing]

So you cant do tidal basin yet?

[summer knot]

Nope.

[rotund wing]

When can you?

[solemn rapids]

when they release it 😉

[summer knot]

^

[rotund wing]

Nice

[solemn rapids]

they don't have a date for it yet, soonish though I think

[gaunt harbor]

who is the guy that wants the MRE in the Thieves Den?

[formal latch]

I remember in one of their streams they mentioned finding "the snitch" who will tell you about a hidden arms dealer that's basically a weekly vendor similar to Destiny.. Anyone know where to find the snitch?

[solemn rapids]

I've found him in a couple random places

Just a friendly guy with the little green flag next to his name, but instead of saying stuff like "defending control point" it's just "???" and he drops some intel & a bounty

god I swear, if any more bounties send me down to the beehive dude's side mission area one more time....

I'm fair sure the last 5 I've done have sent me down here

[gaunt harbor]

are bounties worth doing?

[solemn rapids]

yeah they can drop some nice gear, I'm just doing 'em for the spec points though

since I've put about 120 into survivalist, but want to go sharpshooter instead now, so can't easily get them from missions this time

[gaunt harbor]

the TAC-50's sniper scope isn't accurate. youd put it to someones head and it'll miss

[solemn rapids]

you've gotta wait for your aim to stabilize after scoping

you see two little lines either side of the reticle that shrink in once your shot is targeted, then you can fire

[gaunt harbor]

oh.

[solemn rapids]

it's the same for all scoped snipers in this game, you can't just aim & quickfire

[gaunt harbor]

I beg to differ

[solemn rapids]

I thought the same thing too when I first used it ahaha "I definitely aimed at that guys head how did that miss"

[gaunt harbor]

I can quickscope with all the snipers but the TAC-50

all landing headshots too

[solemn rapids]

yeah some might have more accuracy than others, the one I'm using takes just under a second to line up properly

[gaunt harbor]

ye I use the Carbon 700

[solemn rapids]

I've got the model 700, I need to find a similar damage full-clip one so I don't have to reload bullet by bullet

[gaunt harbor]

yeah I hate the snipers that do that lol

same with shotguns but they are the damage dealers

just trying to grind till 450 its so infuriating ahhh

[solemn rapids]

I'm 1 off myself, matchmaking for bounties is a pretty solid way to go about it I reckon

since most of the time you'll get about 5 or so high-end pieces depending on the bounty you get pulled into

[gaunt harbor]

I'm at 349

Wait really?

all the bounties that are said for me are either a purple weapon or chest piece

[solemn rapids]

are you in wt4?

[gaunt harbor]

wt3 hence 349

[solemn rapids]

ah yeah, when you hit wt4 they'll all give high-ends

[stray steeple]

any chance seeing Keener ?

[summer knot]

spoilers.

Keener isn't in the city.

[solemn rapids]

spoilers in my spoiler chat 😡

[summer knot]

Yup.

There is audio log/cellphone where keener wants to come into the city, but can't because of roadblocks and things of that nature.

[solemn rapids]

yeah I've unlocked 4 of his recordings so far, gotta hunt the rest down

I'm excited for tidal to come out so I can stop getting bullied by the map telling me that it's down there

[summer knot]

You only think you want Tidal.

Personally I have this gigantic feeling tidal is going to come and people are going to expect a somewhat breeze like the other strong holds and just get destroyed by it xD

[solemn rapids]

oh I did roosevelt on challenging last night, took us a good 30 minutes at the end section, I'm not expecting any easiness lmao

[gaunt harbor]

is Tidal a raid?

[solemn rapids]

I don't think so, pretty sure it's just a stronghold

[gaunt harbor]

I just want that Exotic Deagle

[real vale]

can anyone confirm if the airdrops restock ?

[bitter zenith]

Anyone know if the patch worked?

[solemn rapids]

so far I haven't had a turret self-destruct, so I'm thinking so

[bitter zenith]

I sure hope so, 30 minutes left at work.... :(

@gaunt harbor just a stronghold but if I read it correctly doing tidal(once released) will unlock wt5 plus gear sets(not brand sets). As well as new bosses, challenges and some other stuff. I imagine it wont be as easy as the other strongholds, then again I've seen some builds so maybe it will.

[solemn rapids]

is there any way to see which deck of 52 thingamies we've collected? I've definitely picked a bunch up from random named bois, but can't find them anywhere

[terse zealot]

Ya in progression

[solemn rapids]

ah the snitch cards, found 'em, ty

16/52, not too bad considering I haven't even been aiming for them

[serene fjord]

more in depth on how to faction key farm
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbSwUp8SQlk&feature=youtu.be

[upbeat tide]

So im missing two more ivory keys and i got all the hunters

is there other ways to get the keys?

[steel pine]

is there anyone that is in world tier 2? i want to kill the Ghost Hunter but cant 1 shot him in Tier 4

[solemn rapids]

people don't think that the lincoln monument hunters were done correctly

and that they should've given the last 2 keys if done properly, since you can only really kill them with a 1 shot, otherwise they run off

[upbeat tide]

im flat out sitting on 6/8 keys which is kinda pointless at this point

i think the two hunters i killed at the pool dropped 2 keys

[solemn rapids]

I'm the same but I haven't killed the last 2 hunters yet either, I think you might be able to join the game of people who haven't killed the hunters, and help them kill 'em, and they'll drop keys

[upbeat tide]

but they flat out disappeared

I thought with the last patch they restricted the key drop

[terse zealot]

I have 12 masks and 4 keys ... missing 2 couse last 2 are cheese kills.. missing the other 2 couse i did 2 hunters day3 and they didnt drop keys that early couse bug

[upbeat tide]

im contacting CS rn, I think something is causing the keys to not spawn since out of the 12 at least 8 is guranteed

[terse zealot]

Prob every cipher is 1 key

8 ciphers 8 keys

[upbeat tide]

cause i supposed to have all 8 but yesterday the hunters that drop the midas mask dropped 2 keys but they VANISHED before i could pick them up

[terse zealot]

Early day3 (started 11th with vpn) hunters didnt drop them couse buggy

[upbeat tide]

i did the hunters hun last night

[terse zealot]

Max keys atm should be 6

Couse last 2 ciphers arent completly solved yet

[upbeat tide]

Some youtube vids already have players opening the chests

[terse zealot]

Yea couse u could get multiple keys from same hunter in different players instances

They fixed that

[sharp torrent]

feel like i finished the last main mission at lvl 23, is that "normal"? feel like im missing something

SHDnetwork nationwide is backonline**

[wide zenith]

did you do a lot of side missions?

[sharp torrent]

I have a good bit left, not sure its 7 levels worth though lol

[terse zealot]

The 2 strongholds are like 1-1.5 lvls

[sharp torrent]

can you get into those 2lvls early like main missions?

[terse zealot]

Each

[sharp torrent]

thats good

[terse zealot]

Strongholds are 26 28 30

[sharp torrent]

yeah, can i get into the 26 @fallow kelp 24 though kinda thing

shyte ping 😦

[terse zealot]

Do some side missions, control points

[sharp torrent]

yepyep

[upbeat tide]

@terse zealot I got a reply from their CS
I quote
"All 8 should be obtainable at this time. Sounds like it might have been a bug in the game with the key spawns."

[terse zealot]

Lol we cant respawn the hunters

So how should we get the missing keys

[upbeat tide]

I am asking them if they will add something to give us another chance to get the missing keys

@terse zealot
Asked the CS these Q's

"will there be a quick fix for it cause. I've been asking around in the Offiical Division discord and other players are reporting the same thing.
 also will there be another method for players that already cleared the hunters to rehunt and refarm the missing keys?
 it really feels unfair at this point with the key bug for players that already farmed out the hunters"

CS reply

"I honestly do not have an answer on hand for how that will be handled in the future once we have a fix for that. For now I can send your case to our Division lead and they can take a look at it and get back to you once they have a fix for this. I'm afraid I don't have an eta on how long this may take, but they should get back to to you as soon as they can."

[near hill]

WTF is with the Agent Edwards mission?

[terse zealot]

Can u still talk to him

Couse the last 2 hunters have to be chesse and not intended

I killed both and still have the orange circle in the bottom of the monument

[upbeat tide]

I am still talking to him

@terse zealot he's sending it up to the team lead to have them look at the issue. It would SEEM that when they patched the farmable keys in other players instances they BROKE something in the process

[terse zealot]

Ya i noticed that

Ok in the 1st few days the keys werent 100% drops which coused some to not get them

So players started other instances which revealed u can get more then 1 from same hunter

By fixing that they prob fktup the checking system of which hunter dropped a key and which didnt

I tryed 3instances with 10 hunters each instance

0 keys

[upbeat tide]

yea i hope we will get compensated.

@terse zealot best bet to minimized affected players is to make a PSA thread in reddit or else ubi will get some angry gamers

[terse zealot]

Psa needed to tell players that last 2hunter are cheese and prob not intended

[upbeat tide]

for me its the hunters that dropped the midas mask

[terse zealot]

Midas and ghost

[upbeat tide]

yea those two dropped 2 keys

and it went POOF

[terse zealot]

They didnt drop keys for me

[real vale]

anyone got luck with the chatterbox ?

[terse zealot]

Nope, i cant farm last piece couse the hyena chests arent resetting the loottimer for me lol

[real vale]

missing one yes 1 collectible in CH

[gaunt harbor]

so does the snitch randomly appear around the map?

going for a 200km treasure hunt?

[solemn rapids]

I think so, I've seen him in 3 different areas so far, can't remember where though

I think one of them was near the roof-exposed subway control point

[cloud willow]

its incredibly satisfying to blow up Hunters with the grenade launcher.

... after dying a couple of times.

[gaunt harbor]

@half gazelle can you brief me on how to fight the hunters and what the fuck event keys are?

I did a single mission with them, and I got my assed kicked, but apparently it was scripted like that

[half gazelle]

@gaunt harbor that is the one in the story line, yes. it is scripted and he will run away .

the others you can find in the free world doing some wierd things to let them spawn in .

[gaunt harbor]

oh...

[half gazelle]

i can send you a link to all their locations. it would be too much to write down here .

[gaunt harbor]

okay! and what are event keys, how to obtain them and what are their uses?

[cloud willow]

https://imgur.com/a/CZZZuU2

10/12 on this one.

[half gazelle]

@gaunt harbor event keys will open event chests with vanity items in a limited time frame .

@cloud willow gz

@gaunt harbor after these events all the items will go to the blue chests for everyone

[gaunt harbor]

okay, thanks! @half gazelle @cloud willow

[half gazelle]

@gaunt harbor you're welcome. i sent you a link in a pm .

[amber quartz]

so, have any developers confirmed that the way people are getting the "Ghost" mask is the intended way? It's bugging me that ive done everything but have to grind to just one shot this guy, I'm hoping there's more to it than just this.

[cursive moat]

it isnt, we would be getting keys if that was the intended way

for the 5th riddle - the only three things i see that are sort of weird is that elongated orange circle on the monitor that is in the same shape as the loop around the monument, the orange circle on the ground outside, and the door in the elevator shaft has a brass handle, something lootable behind it and is connected to a button on the walkway above the terminal below the monument. like others i cant figure out what "and release another" might mean

[solemn rapids]

the door right behind the zipline? that's linked to the hydden hotels I think

[real vale]

anyone else think we need wt5 to use the skill mods

cause some are like 6, 8k

[solemn rapids]

oh for sure, I think the highest I've managed to get is like 3.5k with skill power on all 6 gear pieces, and about 4 sp mods in

[real vale]

my highest is just over 5k but still too low

[solemn rapids]

yeah one of my firefly mods needs 7.5k

7.8k even, just for a 7% cd reduction lmao

[real vale]

I heard someone mention end of this week for wt5 but who knows

[snow stump]

My stash is full what should i do?? I mean selling, deconstruction or just keeping them what would be the better idea

[gaunt harbor]

I usually just sell some stuff and deconstruct the most

[undone crystal]

whats max item level in wt4

[gaunt harbor]

450(?)

[real vale]

you can go higher than 450

[gaunt harbor]

yeah with recalibration

465 is it?

[undone crystal]

how does recalibration boost your item level? i thought it only let you change around bonuses/talents

[gaunt harbor]

I THINK you can recalibrate your bonuses to get greater GS, if they are higher, don't quote me on that

[cold bramble]

Stats like crit can increase it if it's higher then the original

[gaunt harbor]

also, how the fuck do you get Specialist points after doing the Invaded missions?

[undone crystal]

daily projects / level up bonus

[gaunt harbor]

boutta kms

[real vale]

level up bonus yeh 415k xp a level

[gaunt harbor]

daily projects?

how do you get daily projects?

[cold bramble]

In wt4, it's for missions

[gaunt harbor]

ahhh wt4, that explains it... only WT3 rn

[amber quartz]

@cursive moat "release another" could just mean killing something, the ghost is known to spawn there

[real vale]

was great when I got trolled earlier

purple D50

[fringe socket]

wauw,

i just need the last mission to get the part and blueprint for the smg,

but yeh no hyena keys lol

[dusky maple]

So I just played through the one random mission that you go to look for the one missing division agent and have to fight the “Unknown” enemy. Does that enemy ever come back again?

[gaunt shard]

That was a Hunter, they exist

Often when running around you can see them watching you from high perches

[dusky maple]

Oh, so that’s what I keep seeing in here

[gaunt shard]

They were in D1 too if you played that, they hunt Division Agents

if you ever see one up close they have a bunch of division watches as trophies

[fringe socket]

ever since i encounter the hunter on washington monument, that place creeps the shit outta me lol

i still didnt kill them tho

[dusky maple]

The only time I saw them was on the mission. Not all that far yet

[fringe socket]

got the other 10 masks,

[gaunt shard]

I just confirmed with Ubi support that the last 2 encounters are indeed accessible in the game now, so we are missing something spawning them

[amber quartz]

yeah we're missing something big time with the 11th and 12th masks

[cursive moat]

its actually the 5th and 8th riddles, if you want to know where to look

those are where the clues come from

[gaunt shard]

Right, the one at the washington monument is super close to being solved -- I don't think the other one is close though

[cursive moat]

its the last two lines that we're messed up on.

After dark Return to first monument
and release another

the clue probably lies in that last part, but no one can figure out what they're referring to

[rancid moth]

release another, go to another monument? or release another soul after saluting the graves?

[cursive moat]

on a reddit post someone thought it may have been the First Division Monument which is north near the white house, there are two SHD graves there, but saluting them didnt seem to do anything

[solemn rapids]

hmm, is there any way to downgrade control points easily? Accidentally got one up to 4 since it didn't update the level until I fast travelled & I thought it just wasn't going up

[real vale]

still no D50 here

[frank hedge]

is there a 4th hyena chest in federal triangle?

[real vale]

I know where one hyena box is

[frank hedge]

i know 3 but im not sure if there is a 4th

[real vale]

check division2map.com

[fringe socket]

https://imgur.com/a/a2gLvxc

might be a clue here?

[fiery sluice]

@crisp wedge The yellow stuff apperently cures the virus, but is heavily toxic

[crisp wedge]

So rude, lol

I'm busy taking screenshots of the mods not following their own rules though real quick, this'll be fun ;D

I suppose they are following them, but only when they choose to and being very biased about it

So yeah, is it the OSS mission or not @fiery sluice

[fiery sluice]

I have no clue, i just know there is a black tusk sidemission i played

[crisp wedge]

Weird

I've not gotten it before endgame, and pretty sure I did all I could find

So @summer knot are you going to properly enforce your rules now or still be a twat about it? :p

Hunters ARE in division 1, so their existence here is not a spoiler 🤷

By the logic you lot are spewing, it's not a spoiler

[summer knot]

Yeah, call a mod a twat. Good idea.

[crisp wedge]

Because you're choosing when to enforce rules, lol

I get kicked for talking about hunters yet everyone else is still talking about div 1 content there

[summer knot]

And hunters are a spoiler, There is no mention in trailers/beta or anything of hunters, It is only until the side mission that you see your first hunter and at that point your not sure even if they are hunters or an unamed npc.

[crisp wedge]

The side mission guy looks like a Hunter, so unless you didn't play the first game, you wouldn't know, sure

But that's the point then, Div 1 content is also spoilers for people who don't know, it's all story/lore, and it should all be here then

If certain parts of Div1 aren't okay to talk about outside of a spoiler channel, neither is the rest of it

[opal carbon]

okay, I looked more into this Washington monument thing. at the marked locations there are graves of SHD agents. idk what to do with them. There are also Hydden hotels where you have to "check in". if you checed in to all hotels, you can interact with the button underneath the Washington Monument and it will unlock the door in the elevator shaft. Inside you will find a weapon and a text. Anyone knows whats next?

[crisp wedge]

Servers go to shit when you choose parts of what is and isn't okay :p

Hmm, it's in the supply room right? And it's not the computer for hunters?

[opal carbon]

yes. idk people say those are hunter locations, but i didnt manage to spawn them

i think you have to salute the graves at night or something

there are 6 spawnalble hunters whos drop ivory keys that you can use to ulock a cache at the BoO

actually 8 spawnable hunters, but we only know about 6.

we have to figure out 2 more locations

but we dont really have clue where to start searching

I dont even know how people found the Hydden Hotels.

there are paintings on walls with chyper text and the 3 points in the WM basement. Thats all the info I think we have

anybody know if there is an official place to talk about this?

[summer knot]

As in like a brainstorming area?

[opal carbon]

yes.

[summer knot]

Your best for that is probably A reddit post I would imagine.

[opal carbon]

I will check

[crisp wedge]

Talk about killing robot doge in main, no problem

[swift night]

uhhh pardon me if I've got this wrong but all 12 masks have been discovered.

[crisp wedge]

Mention Black Tusk or enemies from the first game, aw hell no

They have, there's multiple videos on them. I can't imagine other masks being added as dlc, so of course they're all in

Even though robot doggos are part of the black tusk, lolol

[swift night]

We call them Boston Dynamics

And they're a bastard to try and hit the weakpoint

[crisp wedge]

?? They're easy, I just use my crossbow

One shots them, at least the one in missions, the ones in the world I haven't fought as much, cuz I'm busy running to missions

I'll have to shoot one some time in open world

[opal carbon]

@swift night yes, the masks are a different story

[swift night]

Ah you're talking the cyphers

[fiery sluice]

When i try to takedown the doggo's, i shoot at the turret. Seems to be the least armored part of them

[opal carbon]

so. I thought I would solve the riddle alone, but its too big

we have solved 6 out of 8

we have to solve the following 2 riddles:

[fiery sluice]

How are they linked?

[opal carbon]

METAMORPH
JUDICIARY SQUARE 1320,-270 FACING NORTH
7TH ST NW BETWEEN D ST NW & E ST NW

AGRARIAN TRUCKS
SIGNAL THE RIGHT PLACE
A WRONG TURN
THEYLL PUMP THE BREAKS
ONE F(OR?) ONE

AIM WELL BREAK THE
GLASS A GREAT REWARD
AWAITS YOUR ASS

[fiery sluice]

Are the riddles what drop the keys? As you get the keys from the hunters

[opal carbon]

UNITE - WASHINGTON MONUMENT
WEST POTOMAC PARK 100,-925 FACING EAST
15TH ST NW

SCAN THREE LOST SOULS
FIND THE TIME TO PAY RESPECTS
SOULS HONORED
AFTER DARK RETURN TO FIRST MONUMENT
AND RELEASE ANOTHER

the riddles drop the keys, yes

we are really close to solving the second one, but the hunter always disappeares. no clue about the first one

[crisp wedge]

So yeah, anyone know who those knife throwing guys are?

CIA?

I assumed they were POOs or summin, is the CIA even active still? Hm

[fiery sluice]

The second one, i heard the hunter teleports around a few spots

He disappears after 1 hit, to go to a different location. But there is another hunter, who is on a roof, and jumps off to run away (managed to kill him though)

[crisp wedge]

I'm guessing they were looking for the bunker, unless they were Tusk spec ops? lol

If they're the CIA they'd prolly know where it is, since it's the bunker of their predecessor

[cold bramble]

Nah not CIA either nor TUSK

[crisp wedge]

Hm, if they are Tusk, maybe the Tusk are related to the CIA

Who are they knife throwers then?

They're a secret OSS group? lol

[cold bramble]

No clue, but they are a small faction, heck their rushers use garbage cans for shields, you think thats something the CIA would use?

[crisp wedge]

I've watched a video of some attacking someone at night in the streets

So they're not just down there looking for or protecting the bunker

I guess they appear at night around that area. Oh wait, wasn't the follow up mission something to do with that one guy? What's his name

There was a special side mission after that one that leads you to a room with some loot and a phone

[cold bramble]

I havent found anything referencing them yet, But seeing how their gear apears to be cobbled up together, yet they are silent and stealthy...

[crisp wedge]

Didn't have the regular side mission icon though

I'll look it up again, trying to remember the guys name

[cold bramble]

Your SHD 'radar' wont even detect them until they strike

[crisp wedge]

Mission was something something procedure

[cold bramble]

Lessee amma check ingame if i got anything on em in my collectibles

[fiery sluice]

Well, they say that the Tusk are listed as a government known or issued or something, private military/contractor

[cold bramble]

Yeah, the Tusks look like a proper paramilitary organisation too

these 'mall ninjas' and sewer rats.. they are something else

[fiery sluice]

The wiki states that they work together with the Hunters, but ingame if tusk encounter hunters they attack eachother 🤔

[cold bramble]

No one really knows who the hunters are

[fiery sluice]

Nope, still almost no explanation about the hunters

[cold bramble]

im hearing things from Russian Operatives to Third Wave agents

[fiery sluice]

Yeah

They do have high gear tech though, but would be weard that they would send a third wave to kill the second wave agents, even if they haven't gone rogue

[crisp wedge]

Can't see the side mission listed, fuck

[cold bramble]

@fiery sluice the turrets on the warhounds still count as armored by the main body armor plating

[crisp wedge]

Also I noticed I have some black tusk comms, lol, Puppeteers is very interesting

[fiery sluice]

They seem to get destoryed way more quickly than the main body though

[cold bramble]

even if you shoot the turrets the damage goes straight to the body armor plating, and you gotta destroy the body armor to start damaging the warhound

I've just been using explosives to deal with them lol

[fiery sluice]

I do know that they have more armor on the front than on the back

[crisp wedge]

https://www.gosunoob.com/division-2/navy-hill-secret-side-mission-location/ "G. Phillips Protocol" that's it

[fiery sluice]

Yeah, explosives do wonders on them

[cold bramble]

hit em in the back

[crisp wedge]

His saferoom

[cold bramble]

there is a part there that if you hit it theyll damage SUPERFast

[crisp wedge]

Who is G Phillips tho?

[cold bramble]

I think the entire body uses one armor hitbox/health, though

no matter where you shoot them you only start damaging them when the body armor falls off

Hmm ive done that mission yeahd and nothing odd is in that building

Maybe we didnt look hard enough..

there's a weapons cache in the basement but like

[crisp wedge]

There's an outcast cache

[cold bramble]

oh right

[crisp wedge]

Eh, no relation probably. this G Phillips must be connected to that unit though

[cold bramble]

there's an echo on the roof that's kinda like an easter egg

[crisp wedge]

I saw it, but it's just some division agents talking

[cold bramble]

bunch of division agents lounging about and talking about the dark zone from division 1

[crisp wedge]

Nothing to do with the building pretty sure? And yeah, that

[cold bramble]

it was actually hilarious though lmao, "this clown looking mofo just drops his gun and starts dancing in the middle of the street like a fuckin' lunatic"

[opal carbon]

okay, I couldnt figure out the 5th riddle, but I could recreate it that others could. Gona take a look at it again later. I have to go for now

[crisp wedge]

It seems like the Tusk came to take Washington to take over the white house I guess, and become murica's new leader? lol

Praetorian guard, the Tusk boss wants them to be

[cold bramble]

I find it hilarious how the tusk are recruited only from the best and the brightest of combat experts like tier 1/2 operators and whatnot

and you have like an entire field army of them in washington

[crisp wedge]

Since the mission gets you that field outfit, looks kinda like special forces, well I guess the OSS are, lol

[cold bramble]

exactly how many seals are there, now

[crisp wedge]

Intelligence really though, so yeah, that unit of knife throwers is some form of special forces

I'm really thinking CIA POOs

[fiery sluice]

Wait, field outfit?

[cold bramble]

like the tusk should have more battle hardened members than the division

[crisp wedge]

From the side mission

[fiery sluice]

What field outfit, and how do you get it? 😂

[crisp wedge]

https://www.gosunoob.com/division-2/retro-field-uniform-outfit-location/

[cold bramble]

you get the american wwii uniform from the navy hill side mission

[fiery sluice]

Owh, that one

[crisp wedge]

The secret riddle mission

[fiery sluice]

Got that one already 😄

[cold bramble]

"secret riddle"

[crisp wedge]

Riddle mission, hidden NPC in a sewer >>

[fiery sluice]

it was just a sidemission i ran into by accident

[crisp wedge]

Yeah you'll see her icon when you get near anyways

[cold bramble]

but yeah like

[fiery sluice]

You guys found the parents at the RV already?

[crisp wedge]

The riddle had something about daggers in it?

[cold bramble]

I don't get how division agents are supposedly stronger in one on one combat than tusk operatives?

[crisp wedge]

No

[fiery sluice]

Thats also a hidden mission, they give some stuff but i can't remember what

[crisp wedge]

Something something sisters and daggers, the riddle was, eh. I think it was more of a riddle to find your way in or summin

[fiery sluice]

Believe some blueprint or something

[crisp wedge]

Found a page about the ivory keys, I forgot about that chest for a moment, lol

[cold bramble]

like the division agents are essentially civilians with fancy tech when they get activated

not all of them even have a military background

[swift night]

Not entirely. They're sleeper-cell special forces.

[fiery sluice]

Don't they tell that all division agents were sleeper-cell forces, that were trained in secret?

[crisp wedge]

All of them are trained sleepers, without the code word shit

They were trained in secret, they're not actual sleepers

Then president activates the article or whatever, they grab their gear and go

They have their gear hidden in their residence if I recall from the first game

[swift night]

They're definitely sleeper agents, but our codeword is the watch, and D51, not some deep memory programmed thing.

[crisp wedge]

Kinda like Ninja Assassin with the weapons in the skirting

[cold bramble]

they were recruited from various sources, including but not limited to military

[crisp wedge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dt0PxkYr-bQ Oh yeah they kept the watches on, lol

[swift night]

and then received Division training.

[crisp wedge]

Was sure they pulled some shit out of somewhere

[cold bramble]

which seems silly, like some division agents were SEAL but there's like a handful of EMTs or whatnot

[crisp wedge]

It was just the watch activating

[cold bramble]

and they did all receive division training but like

[fiery sluice]

Well, if you need people to rebuild if shit hits the fan it's best to have various experties

[swift night]

"Hey frank, your watch is glowin'. Pretty cool, what's that all about?"

[cold bramble]

what even is division training, are we talking some MK Ultra shit

[swift night]

"EXECUTE ORDER 66."

[crisp wedge]

Pretty sure all the military Agents are the ones who went rogue, lol

[swift night]

Kelso is ex-ranger.

[crisp wedge]

Keener was military too right?

[fiery sluice]

I haven't seen any rogue agents in the second game yet though

[swift night]

Not in the slightest. He was a day trader.

[crisp wedge]

Kelso is so weird, I miss Faye

Faye in the final cutscene with the eyepatch tho

[cold bramble]

yeah Keener was recruited for his smarts not his combat excellence I think

[fiery sluice]

Yup

[crisp wedge]

Not final cutscene, shd network reactivation cutscene

[swift night]

Which doesn't mean they didn't -all- get high level combat and paramilitary training.

[crisp wedge]

Oh yeah, the president disappeared didn't he when the tusk came 😮

[swift night]

"Without resistance"

[crisp wedge]

President a traitor?

[cold bramble]

yeah but you can't just toss some professor into BUD/S and expect him to make it out

[swift night]

No but you can make the ones that do into Division agents.

[crisp wedge]

I'm sure tidal base covers whatever happened to the president, lol

[cold bramble]

and just what, kill the ones that don't make it to keep the secret?

[crisp wedge]

Hm, are the tusk the ones in the beginning on the ships?

[swift night]

Yes

[crisp wedge]

In that tutorial mission, yeah, thought so

[swift night]

And just because they wash out, doesn't mean that they can talk. Nobody talks about SERE-C, because they're not allowed to. And people take that shit seriously.

[fiery sluice]

Well, you can transform everybody into an agent with enough time though

[south prawn]

wasnt there a voice line like "kill all the division agents" in one of the trailers might be the president 😄

[swift night]

Sounded more like the BTSU commander to me

[fiery sluice]

Why would the president say kill all the division agents, as you rescue him in one of the missions...

[crisp wedge]

The tusk are on the run from someone though

Someone is opposing them

[cold bramble]

it's just that people who have extensive military training and experience will no doubt be more proficient in combat than some mathematician who went through a combat training course once and didn't go through combat drills ever since

[swift night]

No they're not. They're in DC to find the Broad Spectrum Anti-Viral.

[crisp wedge]

In the puppeteers comm

Nope, someone wanted to fuck them, but the officer said their boss would stop it, or summin, but they have supreme firepower so they'll be fine anyways

Was talking to a guy named Schaeffer

[cold bramble]

the only way I can see division agents standing toe to toe with actual spec ops like the tusk is if there's some MK Ultra level brainwashing/embedding in there

[crisp wedge]

Brandon Schaeffer I think it was? lol

[swift night]

Schaeffer is the guy in charge of the 3 BTSU guys that have been shadowing us all game

[cold bramble]

yeah and that's another thing

[swift night]

You can find a bunch of ECHOs with his squad in it, of them watching us.

[crisp wedge]

Bardon Schaeffer

[cold bramble]

I see "BTSU" and my brain automatically thinks of a certain south korean boy band

[crisp wedge]

Bardon was talking to a Tusk officer in Puppeteers

[cold bramble]

lmao

[swift night]

That sounds like a you problem

[cold bramble]

oh and uh

President Mendez was assassinated by his own secret service detail

[swift night]

Mendez was a hack

[fiery sluice]

Sounds like fun 😂

[ripe loom]

I don't know if this has been talked about, but I'm guessing it has. I've handled all the 12 hunters, yet I only have 6 ivory keys and 11 masks. Is this issue known and will it be dealt with? I would really like to open the ivory chest at some point but atm I never will!

[cold bramble]

and in one of the comms in the white house, you can see that he had suspicions that someone was moving against him in the shadows but President Ellis (then the speaker of the house Ellis) tells him to not worry about it

[crisp wedge]

Yep, Bardon and the Tusk officer are talking about how the puppeteers pulling the strings wants to get rid of them, and Bardon talks about how they're loose ends. But the officer says the boss will pull through for them because they have leverage, and even if not they still have the best firepower to oppose them

Loose ends of loose ends, even

[fiery sluice]

And we all know what happens to loose ends

[cold bramble]

yeah it all kinda sounds like Ellis was part of a bigger conspiracy going on at DC, doesn't it

[crisp wedge]

Ah wait, Bardon is the guy in that unit outside of the white house echo, looking at us right?

[gaunt harbor]

hey I found an exotic shotgun

[crisp wedge]

Spying on us

[gaunt harbor]

Sweet Dreams?

[crisp wedge]

Only other comm I have is of him and his team talking about the factions

[swift night]

Yes, that's him

There's an Echo near DZ east of his crew as well. and all 10 of the "UNKNOWN" level comms are of his squad.

[crisp wedge]

You got puppeteers tho?

[stray steeple]

so.. what happened to "the castle settlement" ?

[crisp wedge]

Got mortar striked

[swift night]

True Sons DC62 Chemical attack

And yeah, I don't see Puppeteers as anything other than backstory as to why the factions are fighting against BTSU. Might refer to the Hunters, but I think that's a reach.

[lethal epoch]

any of you folks know if the hidden vault in bank hq only drops loot once ever?

[stray steeple]

oh man. and there is a quest that > Speak with Agent Kelso.. but she isn't there?? lol

[swift night]

You talking about the Gold Bar drop, or something else?

[crisp wedge]

The officer and Bardon are talking about puppet string pullers trying to get rid of them both

[lethal epoch]

nah the hyena chest on hard or higher

for chatterbox blueprint

[swift night]

My clan is assuming it's on a 24hr. CD.

@crisp wedge I'll have to give it another listen when I'm home from work.

Speaking of, now I'm late.

[lethal epoch]

well i just tried, and so i did yesterday and the day before, neither hyena chest nor weapon crate drop a thing for me

[crisp wedge]

Tusk's boss has leverage to protect them or something

[swift night]

Bit of a stretch but might be on the weekly reset, then.

[crisp wedge]

Either way, there are people in a higher position than the Tusk and Bardon, trying to screw them

[lethal epoch]

hmm i'll wait for that then, otherwise i guess its time to bugreport

[crisp wedge]

With the heal spec thing maxed, I'm healing 2 out of 3 armour bars

3 bars, each bar has 5 segments

[fiery sluice]

Yeah, same here, the healing launcher hells really quick. Just gotta stay in the circle

[crisp wedge]

Now I need to respec that outgoing heal off, and fuck my armour again, to see if it affects me

I'm seeing if the outgoing heal is only for allies or for me as well xD

Outgoing, hmm, I guess it is allies, I'm testing anyways, so

[gaunt harbor]

destroying these gasoline tanks are fucking annoying

wasting all my ammo

[stray steeple]

shooting at furnitures? instead of burning them? well well well

[gaunt harbor]

how rare is the "sweet dreams" exotic?

[brave nebula]

So rare that you will fall alsleep

[gaunt harbor]

huh... I must be asleep then..

literally the first mission upon reaching 450 and the first boss I killed drops a Sweet Dreams. I'm like: what the fuck

how do you dye your armor

and what do you dye it with?

[brave nebula]

Dyes

[gaunt harbor]

where do you get the dyes

[brave nebula]

They drop rng

Some are in premium store as well

[fiery sluice]

Only found 1 armor dye so far in 43 hours 😐

[swift night]

Look for SHD drops that have been tangled in roofs or trees. Big orange boxes.

Guaranteed dye drop from those. There's I believe one near every safehouse

[fiery sluice]

I haven't found a single one of those yet :/

[crisp wedge]

Hm, so this data says the Tusk want to get rid of all the factions, and Bardon has been investigating all the factions

[swift night]

I can walk you to one right now, if you go out the safehouse closest to the DZ East entry, go out the North door and turn right, follow the building, it will be at the intersection.

[crisp wedge]

Why are the spec sidearms level 30?

They don't scale?

[swift night]

No. Known bug I believe, which I hope gets fixed because the 93r is a BANGER

[crisp wedge]

Yep, the survivalist outgoing healing perk increases the healing done to yourself too

And now that I've got some nicer gear on, I'm at the skill power level required to use the +2 ammo on the chem gun 😄

Got 5 shots of heal now

[swift night]

I've got a mod for my drone, +88% duration. Requires 6000 skill though, so I'm farming my face off. Got a chest piece with 1300 sp yesterday though so I'm on the way

[cold bramble]

has anyone been able to find a way to open the hidden tunnel door in Roosevelt Island

[ripe loom]

Oh hidden tunnels, I wonder what's inside

[south prawn]

@swift night not a bug but they are looking into it

[opal carbon]

I think there are peaces that give 3000+

recalibrate that onto a offensive armor and bumm

[ripe loom]

What are the odds of getting the Sweet Dreams on Roosevelt Island on challenge? Read that it drops there but what are the odds?

[swift night]

Yeah, the highest I got before this drop was only 700, so I was surprised.

[crisp wedge]

+1 extra mines seems to just split the mini seeker into 4 instead of 3

[stray marsh]

Isn't it pointless to farm Exotics in WT4? Unless you can get the blueprint upgrade also

[crisp wedge]

doesn't give an extra throw, does nothing for the other two mine mods

Just the split one]

[rose cradle]

Someone tell me Im not insane. The contaminated area in constitution hall has a loot room right? Like behind the gold door handles? How the fuck do you get inside?

[crisp wedge]

Hmm

it has the sister right? the nun? She has a key after talking to her, if I think it's that one

[daring shoal]

@swift night the Judiciary Square safehouse?

[crisp wedge]

Quarantine zone he means

[swift night]

I think so man, but I'm at work and can't tell you for sure

[rose cradle]

Not the nun one, the one with the uh

What look like crying Mary statues

South West side of the Constitution Hall zone

https://i.imgur.com/hhjX7iY.jpg
Behind the door on the right. I had the loot detect thing on and it highlighted something behind the door, but I haven't found a way inside.

[fiery sluice]

Btw, does anybody know where to get the keycard for the room in the vault in the bank mission? As i've seen there is loot in there, but you need a keycard, which i cant find

[south prawn]

its in the room before you get down the elevator - the is a button in one of the walls

[swift night]

Go into the CEOs office and go left. There's a hidden compartment in the wall.

[vagrant sentinel]

What does that coded message on the side of the Washington Monument say?

[cold bramble]

“Drink your Ovaltine” I don’t actually know

[vagrant sentinel]

I wouldn't even be mad if it was that.

[swift night]

https://m.imgur.com/a/w03p1Ml @vagrant sentinel

[vagrant sentinel]

oh word

That's not as interesting as I expected. lol

[swift night]

Still not solved though, so put that grey matter to work.

[vagrant sentinel]

? Isn't it just for masks? Or do you mean the Washington Monument one??

[coral stone]

The Coded messages are hits on how to spawn in the "Hunters" Killing them grants you their "Mask"

https://i.gyazo.com/7d3007c933a5a685f8c8888d67de85dc.jpg These things

[fiery sluice]

I got all except 1 so far

Am still curious how to get the last 2 ivory keys, as i currently have 6 out of 8

[swift night]

Prey sure they're random drops

[frozen kite]

They drop from the hunters you kill, have you gotten all the masks?

[swift night]

Someone did some testing and did the Christmas tree 4 3 times in a row and got different key drops each time

[fiery sluice]

Like i said, i have all except 1 mask, but only 6 out of the 8 keys. And the keys being random drops is retarded idea, as you can't resummon the fucks after killing them 😐

I've tried btw, when i try to redo the ones i already finished, it just doesnt work

[swift night]

You can do them in someone else's group and get them though

[fiery sluice]

Still, think it should just be guaranteed drops tbh, as they don't respawn

[coral stone]

can you not simply "re-summon" them?

[fiery sluice]

No

I just said...
You can't re-summon them.

Sorry, that was a tadbit more blunt than i ment to bring it

[limber robin]

Perhaps they will be freeroaming one day. Would be cool to actually step into hunter in LZ rather than summon them

[fiery sluice]

Yeah, that's what i liked about the division 1, how they appeared in underground and Survival

Would love to see them as rare spawns in the world or DZ's

[swift night]

The hunters are technically in the LZ outside of being summoned

You can see them stalking you at night from a ways away, if you've got a good eye. But if you move towards them or shoot at them they run and disappear

[fiery sluice]

LZ?

[swift night]

Light zone. Shorthand for the open world outside the DZ

[fiery sluice]

[undone crystal]

do the daily mission projects not reset?

[amber quartz]

i killed one of the hunters stalking me and it dropped high end loot, that's why people keep thinking their hunter mask is bugged, they just killed the wrong hunter

[fiery sluice]

Owh, i exactly know which one i need to kill, the one on the crane, that teleports after getting hit

[real vale]

is there any tactic for the complete the mission while looting 10 boxs ?

[south prawn]

i saw screenshots with a board with all unlocked masks - where is that located?

[fiery sluice]

In the basement of the Base of operations, in the serve room area

[real vale]

just got another named kill

[south prawn]

i guess im blind then xD the screenshots looked like the basement but oh well

[pallid goblet]

So i just did the lvl 24 mission what do i do next?

[simple shale]

?

[pallid goblet]

The underground shd bunker i figured that might not be the last mission before the stronghold but dont know what to do currently lvl 23

[edgy fulcrum]

anyone working on the UNITE Ciphertexts, I think it has to do something with this big red holo sign outside memorial once, you press the button, thoug I have no idea

the keys are not a random drop, you got 8 ciphertexts, 6 of them solved already ... I done it and got 6 keys, if you try to kill those hunters in a monument area yeah they drop the mask (random drop), but its not done properly, as those are just the teasing hunters we should not be able to kill them .... so to get the ivory keys you need to the riddle properly

[real vale]

why is there a comm listed outside of the map ?

[weak moth]

prolly cause in update it will be used? who knows

[waxen glacier]

anyone has a link with info about all the specialisations specs? (don't wanna scroll class by class each time) 😃

^ unlockeables

[solemn creek]

@waxen glacier This is where I got most of the info I had before I started playing, Might help you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pbu8DkFAeXg

[thorn spoke]

So, after finishing the capitol and black tusk arrives, let’s say I retake all CP again, will they take them back again ?

[south prawn]

yes

[chrome meadow]

thats the problem in my current game. i capped all cps and done outcast stronghold. it said black tusk arrived and i didnt lose any cp

am i supplying cps too much i wonder?

i yet to lose a single cp tbh since i started when i thought about it

this also blocks my ability to do some assignments

devs should clarify how this system works in and out imo

[safe imp]

Mobs will attack ur Cps more as u take more stuff from them; though whether or not you lose the CP depends on if the friendly NPCs at CP win a fight against attacking NPCs

[cold bramble]

got my first hunter mask! Heck yee

[void frost]

Anyone know what the “ongoing directive” and “hard wired” sets are?

[cold bramble]

@chrome meadow Did you do all strongholds?

[chrome meadow]

no but after i done first it gave me pop up msg

[edgy fulcrum]

I think the UNITE must be somehow connecte to this red circle, which will light up when you interfere with computer again after visting the grave, https://imgur.com/a/yhr0XPt but how to release him 😄

[chrome meadow]

and told me black tusk started sweeping

[cold bramble]

@chrome meadow Black tusk only comes once you are lvl 30 and have done all 3 strongholds

[frozen kite]

able to kill anything inside the circle @edgy fulcrum ?

[vagrant sentinel]

I found something about UNITE

[chrome meadow]

then i seen a bug if its the real criteria

[vagrant sentinel]

hold up

[cold bramble]

Everyone gets that pop up message, it comes too early lol

[chrome meadow]

interesting how it mentions. its like its happening at that moment

[void frost]

None of my control points have ever been taken by black tusk tbh
