@half valley what kind of words we talking about?
@halcyon pebble i would like to ask about RV3, RV4 fresh , lf4m , lf7m,...
ahh
RV# are the voice channels : Raid Voice 1-15
fresh usually means fresh raid from the beginning
oh !
lf4m is looking for 4 members or any amount they are missing etc.
max 8
hope it covers your doubts
ah yeah some will say exp only which means those that have done the raid before and experienced
thats pretty much it i think
can you hear me?
Guys I'm new to div2 .What's raid?
looking for a carry if anyone wouldnt mind
It's an end-game content for 8 men group. Probably the most hard one due to the organization involve. The raid has some mechanics you need to be aware of too @hard spade . To get in one you need to be WT5 at GS 490 at least
@hard spade Raid is an 8 player pve activity, probably the most difficult in the game... You have to reach world tier 5 and gear score of at least 490 to play the raid... And of course you'll need specific builds to get through it with your team efficiently.

@autumn flicker @vagrant wing Thank you so much guys ...I
Alright
So I'm kind of preparing to do my first raid.
I do NOT know how to start building.
What do I need to look for in my stats?
For the first raid runs a Unbreakable build is recommended, around 300k armor and 80k health, as much weapon damage and DTE as you can get and some hazard protection.
It's a talent on chests, restores your armor when it's down to 0. Can happen every 60 secs afaik, normal unbreakable restores 70% and perfect unbreakable from badger tuffs ZeroF restores 100%. Needs 11 blues to activate.
Sark is a good talent for a back pack along with perfect unbreakable add a little extra weapon damage and they to get patients on your knee pads
Does anyone accept new people into their raids?
Get an aces build and get nemesis sniper exotic rifle
6 hours of raiding back to back, helped some people get there first raid clear and I even managed to get my time down too.... Not bad for a night's play 😂
noice.
@small lion, if you are thinking of making an ace's and Eights build, try and get a good svd (marksman rifle, motherlylove gloves with the highest marksman rifle damage, think it's 13%, you only need 4 pieces of Ace's and Eights gear to make it work, oh and perfect vigilantes on your vest.
i wish people would look at the groups dte because we had more then 1 with less then 40%
Oh man not good, @pseudo parcel... They aren't going to get much done in a riad with that.
Na I wouldn't think so either, you can tell how your raid is going to go if your team struggle on the first part.
i had 82% and would get kicked if i had less then 55 so i don't know what has changed since august
Hmm not everyone checks builds, some are just happy to have people to raid with 😂
i just need eagle bearer for my build and so i looked for a group found on saw one person had 34% ignored it being nice and all then a 0% joined and probably more but i left when we reset at least 7 times
Oh wow
so now i need to find a new one
What a new clan, or members to play with @pseudo parcel
members,clan doesn't really matter anything will help
@ivory compass i cant use motherly gloves before the first raid because i wouldn't have aces backpack to complete 4 pc aces
anyone i can join a raid
@wind spade post in #lfg-raid-pc if you're new to raid, mention that as well
hello guys i have question
i am in base of operation and see a 8 shape mark on my mini map but dont know what is it
and how to get it
it is yellow 8 shape mark
any idea ?
🙃 i assume you already know because you are in this channel or just picked it randomly instead of #ask-td2-community
sorry i dont got it
by the way i am new to this channel
i must choose another channel?
sorry
Okay i've been geared for raid since last month but its nearly impossible with randoms. clan's not really active or competitive so i have no clue what the %'s mean that some of yall talk about. Also not sure if im doing something wrong by picking the reviver and shield drone
Shiatire >>>> Add me for raid all the time if u see me online 😄
Anyone run a raid today?? How was it???
We tried to run one and it was crazy hard... 4 wipes on boomer then couldn’t even finish Ricochet and Dizzy...
what is making it the raid harder on normal mode than discovery mode, more NPC's or they are harder to kill?
The fact you have to do mechanics.
@snow kindle
Razorback is a joke in discovery. Doesn’t teach you how to actually DO the mechanics, just how to kill the boss. No real warning of the nuke or how to do all 4 gens at once
And that’s just the biggest example.
oh okay everybody has to jump in the circle at the same time
@snow kindle in boomer, the defense nodes will turn back on and you have to use the laptops to disable it.
In weasel, you have to do the panels or the poison will kill you.
In buddy and Lucy, the leeway for health differences is much smaller.
For razerback, you have to get in the circles at the same time to open up razerback. 2 chungus spawns after 50% of razerback is destroyed.
Discovery feels like story mode, running and shooting all the time and don't pay attention to anything xD
In discovery everyone can play any build... Imagine normal mode without aces and bleed builds... Holy that is hard
Discovery mode means you don’t gotta do shit but not wipe. It’s kinda disappointing as it’s teaching folks bad razorback habits
Like running through circles at the beginning, leaving circles when they reach 100%,ignoring heavies on rocket launchers?
All of it
There’s no reason for raiders to try and learn to improve.
The discovery mode is effectively one big gear check
@tender hollow I gave feedback to the devs that discovery mode that it teaches bad habits for the normal raid. If they weren't changing the mechanics they should have atleast given pop up tutorials explaining the differences for each boss encounter so that players understand what to expect in the normal raid. It would have been simple but effective
Eh, carebear casuals > all still I guess
most just want the EB and will never raid again
@broken cargo i disagree. Although discovery teach the mechanics all wrong, doind the raid without bleed builds is easy if the team communicate properly and have semi- decent builds. The raid wasn't meant for speedrunners and i personally run through it a lot before ppl thought about speeding the process. Imo most of the raids that are failing, failing because of lack of communication
Is it worth? When most people say the raid is so hard for the reward we getting from the bosses
I mean are the gears we getting are really better than the ones we getting from the open world
It's actually quite fun. I can't answer the question for you, it all comes down to the question do you have fun doing it or not
The gear you'll get feom the raid are useful in some cases but it's not must have gear
all i can say is, everytime we had no bleeder in the group, it was very difficult @vagrant wing. could just have been a coincidence tho.
Thats not true. Chest & BP of the gearsets are locked behind the raid too
Yeah
@tender hollow ^^^
I saw 🙂
To those that don’t believe it’s worth it .. I disagree . For me it wasn’t the eb . It was all 8 of us working together . I made a bunch of gaming friends raiding . It’s a huge accomplishment in game especially back when it started . We were happy to run it in 35 minutes . No you don’t have to run a 44 million hit bleed build to beat it . It helps to shorten the fights for sure . But I really like running it
We run as a clan every weekend . But I lfg through the week .
Sorry if this isn't the right place, but I was wondering does this discord do sherpa runs, or are there any sherpa communities out there? Looking to experience the raid once before expansion comes out.
Anyone tryna do the last 4 hunter masks? Cant find a group to do it
I’m looking to join/ create group for people to do the raid (normal mode) on PS4.
I guess it will take some time and practice so ideally looking for active players/clans around 5pm-midnight daily ( UK time)
Looking for 2 ppl for raid
what is the gear set is the bleed build gear set?
what do you mean?
people talking about its better to run a beed
people talking about its better to run a bleed build for the raid
is the chameleon good in raid? it seems a bit inaccurate and all over the place
Oh ok. It's a weird term that actually mean "over damage". There are 2 type of so called "bleed" builds. One use the nemesis for the first 3 bosses and the other one utilize the TAC 50 for Razorback. These builds are not including any gearset pieces at all. Since you only have 2 weeks ish until gear 2.0 comes out, and since these builds require huge amount of farming - i suggest you to forget about it for now @snow kindle
okay thanks. I thought for a minute they were talking about a gear set like NOMAD in division 1
@hard berry most of the time its better to run just high dps for the raid, cause skills dont help at the bosses and high armour means to less dps
Skillbuilds are mostly to farm npcs. In the raid, the enemies are not very likely to be farmed. There are some skills used like stingerhive for bleeding but most of the time, dps/aces with reviverhive and some sort of defense like defender or fixer drone are better overall, from what I experienced so far
@broken cargo @warm ibex i am newish to raiding in the division 2. I have the nemesis and a good crit/damage build is that good enough or should do a armourish damage build since I am a noobish
I always recomend having 2-3 builds for the raid. They dont have to be perfect but should work well (high dps) First Build AR HS/Crit Build, Second Build: Sniper SVD and Nemesis And third one if possible 4pc Aces and Eights and then it should be just fine with most of the groups
^ of course. After you have completions and a good understanding of what you need damagewise you can change things up and run different builds just for fun
Where can I get aces backpack
@orchid bane aces bp and chest raid only gear . Bp drops as well to craft in raid
Gotcha that's what I thought
If your new to raid I recommend an ar svd combo right now . Good Dte and dps
Yah I have svd nemisis and all damage and crit hit chanace I'm a little worried about my 220k armour and 90k health
That’s more than enough. You only need 60k health for Weasel
hey, what do i need to do to play the raid? are there some side quests or anything?
you need to be in WT5, have GS 490+, and have spoken to the pilot in white house and clicked on the Operation Dark hours menu option. thats all for the game requirements
to actually play the Normal mode, you need to find 7 other people to play with
try the lfg raid channel for your platform
ok is there another mode than the normal mode?
Discovery mode, thats the easy mode. u can matchmake for that. but you won't get blueprints or Eagle Bearer from it
ok nice thx 🙂
how long does the raid take?
dependiong how good the ppl are, it can be done in 20 mins or less...or it takes some hours 😛
normally its about 30-60 mins for me
you said 2-3 hours
what makes Normal harder than Discovery?
The mechanics are different. Npcs hit harder I think. But mostly the mechanics
yeah, looked up videos -- mechanics are a touch different, but i imagine the adds hitting harder is what wipes people the most
Nah. The different mechanics are definitely what causes wipes. Most people don’t know what they’re doing going from discovery to normal
No computers on boomer, no poison gas on Weasel, Buddy and Lucy are just far easier in general, Razorback genuinely requires no coordination. I’ve literally done all of the damage to Razorback before in a discovery raid
Along with being the only person charging the gens
Granted. Enemies being deadlier definitely doesn’t help
Is the razorback raid done once a week?
and eagle bearer dropable only raid final box ? (need 5 key)
@here
- The raid reset once a week. i.e. you can get the keys once a week & get blueprints & exotics once a week
- There's a slight chance to get the EB from every boss
@sacred needle
What spooks the new players in raid is the chaos . If they would have mics and speak to each other it would go much smoother . Problem is everyone wants to be the shooter and that don’t work . 147 clears and never seen eb drop from boss but heard it does rarely
I run discovery a few times a week for fun . It’s amazing how people don’t listen and then rage quit .
What’s a requirement for raids like I have gear score 500 stuff and I’m working on upping my damage to elites and armor like what would you say is minimum armor/ damage etc
Really isn’t a minimum armor amount, assuming you’re killing stuff quickly. Would try for at least 60k health. Damage amount depends on which guns you’re using
probably 70+ dte, 20+ awd, 50+ wd for specific weapon and you are good to go, most don't have it, so you can probably do with less. And don't waste too much time with farming, it will be crap in 3 weeks anyway
oh i forgot the 60k life^^
When is the next raid releasing?
What’s awd and wd ? The other I’m assuming is damage to elites
awd == All weapon dmg
wd == Weapon dmg
K thank you
awd also known as simply weapon damage
wd also known as weapon type dmg
@hexed vector
Thank you again I’m looking to do a raid in the near future so thanks for all the info
Is it new or does boomer always spawn when you destroy razorback?
Boomer? you mean the heavies right? They spawn roughly 40 sec after Razor open up. I guess you guys took the time when you killed him
anyone experienced for normal raid?
With an Aces build, do I just keep spam shooting the SVD at enemies all the time, and call out Aces (& Eights) when it hits?
You can spam as long as you know you'll hit. But you call out either aces or reload. 4 of a kind does not need called out.
If you're hitting hard enough it might be better to slow it down and hit your headshots, especially when you can 2 or 3 shot the elites.
You can spam or get close to an aces roll and hold the proc until someone needs it
Keep roll it. But make sure you proc it at the right time, to be specific you should try and proc it on the bosses only (everything i'm gonna say right now is under the assumption that you running with a SOLID group who actually knows what they're doing). On the rooms before each boss (tarmac, contaminated) make sure you stop using a MMR after you have one of the combination:
- 1 Ace, 1 Eight, 1 random card
- 2 Aces, 1 Eight, 1 random card
- 2 Eights, 1 Aces, 1 random card
Keep flippin cards until you got one of those combination and then switch weapon (to another type. I personally use the EB/AR). On each boss try to enter the fight with Aces prepared (again one of the combination above) and proc it when requested. Your build should be able to deal dmg even when not using MMR so i advise to do some investment into your favorite secondary weapon
@tender hollow i wrote this one a while ago
@unborn bay @manic raptor @vagrant wing Great. Thanks for the pro tips
Also it’s funny how I can hit maybe 21 million with a nemesis using the following talents
Perfect Spotter
Perfect Spark
Perfect vigilance
Perfect opportunistic
Perfect bloodlust
Composure
Aces buff
HS damage is 208%
Crit chance at 28.5%
Crit damage at 56%
Gear pieces are
Gila guard - mask
China light - backpack
Airarldi - chest piece and knee pads
Motherly love - gloves
Wyvern - holster
I can basically one shot any of the 2nd bosses. I also need aces procced for the extra damage.
Damn nice, good to have I’ve got a similar build but I get squashed by adds. Made an Unbreakable, 4 piece Ace build but only hits 600-1mill dps
Only way I was able to hit 11 blue was alps chest 3 blue 2 mod blue, backpack badger 6 blue
Lost like 20-40% damage
You can just switch loadouts until aces is proc as well before a boss fight
Keep switching loadouts you saved eventually aces pops up because it’s flipping cards
Anyone with experience running a raid?
Any body running a raid ??
Hi Looking for a raid normal. Anyone?
#lfg-raid-pc
Does any one know how to get the blueprints for the gear sets
By doing the Raid
Where in the raid?
The bosses drop them. I think once per reset
thanks
Any tips for picking up crossbow bolts with an AR survivalist build? Thx
I’m looking for a squad I just got the game yesterday
@tender hollow unless you are landing 40m with all possible buffs in the shooting range, I fail to see how you are able to one shot any of the 2nd bosses... :<
lfg pc, uplay id NinjaKemp
@dusky bolt I hit roughly 10 million without aces prooced and maybe 12 million if I let my nemesis auto shoot. With aces procced it’s 21 million
@tender hollow there is also a damage mitigation of 33% in the raid.
And also, if you are using perfect bloodlust, by the time you have the nemesis mark at the optimal point, you would have lost the buff of perfect bloodlust.
The second I feel the boss is about to go down or something I immediately swap to my nemesis then hit.
But we try and one shot boomer, 5 second weasel then 10 second buddy and Lucy, 2 phase razorback
2 phase razorback cause the front typically run TOTS and we’re missing a tac 50. 2 people at the front take care of the 2nd wave of drones. We then destroy it and run out. Tried to one phase it in discovery but someone shot early
Also one guy with opportunistic keeps hitting a weak point at the front. Then we run back, heal then get on. The heavies typically die before they reach the launcher
Anyone looking to do raid on ps4
#lfg-raid-ps4
@tender hollow i won't comment on how you do the rest of the raid but gathering from what you said your mmr build:
You have another weapon out until boomer is about to go down and you switch to your nemesis, full charge and release? If this is so, you benefit from the 20% WD from perfect bloodlust but you lose 50% WD from Nemesis Mark.
I have ar 36% damage and dte 74%. Is good for raid?
You need more @young bear. Get more ar damage and more DTE
@tender hollow how much more do you think is ok?
65 or 70. AWD should be at 36% or somewhere around that. Get over 55% DTE and HH
Got to say this. Raid is just a big mission. Just finished for the 5th time in discovery today and i can say this with confidence
If you haven’t done the normal raid then you haven’t done anything 🤷♀️
@eager mantle doing it in discovery is not the same as doing it on normal lol
@grand oak yeah i know. In normal....its almost the same
Like, no joke. The only differences between Normal Boomer and Discovery Boomer is that he doesnt destroy the turrets
Only in Normal he may destroy the turrets
And I say may because, in the run I had today he only took one turret down
Shoutout to the cool people that went in with me
No. There are far more differences
Normal is timed, there are also computers to stop the nodes coming back up, he heals faster, you also can’t shoot the nade in normal, he’s harder to drop to do damage in normal
@eager mantle it’s extremely different throughout the entire raid . You should lfg on Xbox and try it .
2 questions: 1) from the map it says I have 3/4 bosses looted for Normal raid when I know for sure I completed it from beginning to end. Will I be able to get loot from the supposed missing boss? 2) If I repeat Normal raid, will I be able to loot Gear Set blueprints???
@verbal mist if i had an xbox sure, but sadly my budget only allows me to play on my laptop but i will accept the invite anytime
@crisp merlin you should be able to repeat the raid and get the loot.
On normal it’s all different. On boomer the computers activate, he destroys the turrets, bullet spongy
On weasel gas affects you, gun icon goes to 20 then poison, more bullet sponginess
On buddy and Lucy you have a smaller window to do damage to them and more bullet sponginess
On razorback the towers up for 15 secs, you can only do 25% damage and the weak points take more damage. Drones really whoop your a**. And 2 heavies come out after 50% damage. 2 missions are launched at you and more bullet sponginess
@eager mantle
well....sounds like a harder discovery mode to me but k
I mean, discovery mode is easy mode so yes, normal is harder, that's the point
And only way to get the exotic is on normal more.
No
It only drops on normal. It can drop on each boss, but has a higher chance to drop from the chest
Guys does the boomer stick in a obsticle for you too?
After the thuesday reset it stuck 3 times in a wall and we had to wipe
Bosses have been getting stuck more since the update
do i have to wait for eagle bearer to drop once every week or can i do the raid everytime?
Looking for 4 more for a new raid
@slate nacelle its once a week to get as a drop from the bosses itself but you can keep running the raid for the keys from razorback to open the chest at the end for an eagle bearer
@slate nacelle basically as a drop its once a week and from the chest, its anytime as long as u have the keys
Anybody gonna go in for the raids?
@tender hollow What do the monitors do in boomer normal?
They show you which computers to use to keep the immunity towers down.
ps$ raid?
@soft parcelyea fresh
Shotgun builds are perfect for the raid
Sure they are. At least if you like to wipe several times😋
There isn’t really a minimum once you get used to it @lethal ivy just try for at least 60k health for the second boss
We seriously did razorback 4 people. All running aces, took 12 phases, we did damage in the 1st phase, 2-4th we collected spec ammo, 5th phase we did 50% damage. 6-8th phase we collected more spec ammo, 9th phase person at 4 did drone control and we did 75% damage. 10-11th phase collected more spec ammo. 12th phase we did 100% damage and destroyed our stations. We did crossfire with the nemesis to help. Heavies were on 1 and 2. Killed them and clutched it. Person on 3 died so 2 and 4 helped
Maybe a 4 man weasel is possible but only in discovery
A four man raid has been done more ethen once @tender hollow
Who is an active Division 2 PVE Player looking to join an Active division 2 PVE clan, TNTCN is currently #2 global on PS4 For CXP and we are recruiting, add me and message me if you’re interested.
Has a 4 man normal raid ever been done or just discovery?
@tender hollow Normal. I know about two groups and i'm sure there are more
@prisma wigeon depends on your build really... Since the special ability (primer charge bullets) of the Merciless it's better to use it if you have an explosive build (i.e. skill build with high explosive % ). Otherwise you can you it as a secondary for it's holstered talent to proc Spark
I have 30% rifle damage and 75% explosive and have been building up my armor
Could work. But when i said high % explosive dmg i meant 100% and above
merciless would be fine with 90 exp high dte and negotiators while killing ads but you'd struggle with boses
bosses
what gun should I build then?
oddly i find lucy and buddy harder than the truck
which is hilarious imo
Discovery mode can be fun sometimes
is there a good nemesis and LMG/Sub machine gun build for the raid or should I work on a different build for it?
can someone explain all the bosses except for boomer because I haven't gotten a squd tht has made it past boomer
I wouldn’t use nemesis for any fight except maybe the second if you’re with an unexperienced team, assuming you’re not completely building into it. I’d say to watch a video for explanations. But I’ll give a quick cliff notes version, might be missing some stuff
@manic raptor what are some good weapons or builds because I'm trying to get some exotics
I personally have always preferred ARs, just raw damage. You can also throw together an Aces build fairly quickly. I wouldn’t bother making a great build since it’ll all change soon
@manic raptor would the chameleon work for an AR build
It, theoretically, could. I don’t have it. So dunno if it’d be any good on my build
I'm trying to work on getting that and nemesis before stuff and level up 3 of my friends, thank you for your help
Do you think that a stoner build or chatterbox would work for the raid
Weasel: There are two sides to the plane, one side has purple gas and the other has orange. You can only do damage in the orange gas. In order to switch the gas you press a button on each side of the plane (it will be green) you have to press them at the same time. If the gas goes up to 20 you’ll take poison damage (which goes straight to health) if you’re in the purple, you’ll get confused if you’re in the orange
Only LMG I would recommend is the m249/mk46
thank you for that explanation, is that the second bosses
Unhinged and allegro
@manic raptor is there a named weapon with these talents?
There is perfectly unhinged. I don’t remember what the name of it is
Maybe? I definitely wouldn’t recommend trying it until you have a couple completions and know what you’re doing
Lucy and Buddy: These are both dogs. Lucy does a spin (she’ll do two complete circles) that will instantly down you and then kill you. Buddy basically constantly heals. He also throws seekers that will knock you out of cover when Lucy is spinning. He only throws them when they squat down. They both squat at the same time, so when they squat Lucy will be getting ready to spin. Buddy also releases a poison cloud (straight health damage), and occasionally deploys an emp that will instantly destroy skills. On their health bars there is a white bar, you want to keep their health bars in the white bars by damage them evenly. Normally it’s best to keep buddy slightly below Lucy since he’ll heal. If their health gets too far apart they’ll overcharge, to to the middle and both of them will heal. Overcharging doesn’t always mean you’ll wipe, but depending on how much they heal it likely will. When they get low enough (generally two bars is low enough) wait for them to squat down and then kill them (Buddy first, if you kill Lucy first buddy will go in to overdrive and constantly heal, which isn’t impossible to beat but requires insanely high dps as a team)
@manic raptor which is the hardest boss
Sorry, I’ll give an explanation for the last boss in a second. As far the hardest, I’d say Lucy and Buddy, then Boomer, then Razorback, then Weasel
Lucy and Buddy requires pretty good coordination, Boomer is just hard because you can easily be flanked by ads. You can hop in cover to hide from one ad and heal up, but if you’re not put together and controlling ads they can easily be behind you as well
^ Both of those are also time based. Take too long on Boomer and he destroys the turrets needed to do damage. Take too long on Lucy and and Buddy they go into overcharge/overdrive, making buddy constantly heal
Although Razorback is the final boss it’s far easier than Lucy and Buddy since it doesn’t require as much finesse. Far easier than boomer since only two ads spawn at a time. Assuming everyone is holding their own you’ll basically never get overwhelmed or flanked by enemies that you weren’t aware of. Except for the dogs. And although Razorback isn’t technically timed, it gets harder as it goes on. The longer you go the more dogs spawn, first purple, then elite
Razorback: It’s generally best to decide positions prior to going down, once you do you’ll go down and clear the ads that are there. Don’t go on the gens (the circles on the gray/grey pad). Until you step on the gen for the first time, no more ads will spawn. Once you’ve cleared them and everyone is in their position, someone will do a count, “3,2,1, on gens” or smth like that. Everyone that is assigned to gens will step on at the same time. The gens will then start to count up to 100%. You’re allowed to be 20% apart and not mess up damage phase. Once it reaches 100% Razorback will open up, but don’t step off the gen. Directly in the middle of Razorback (eye-level), you’ll want to shoot this out (hitting it with a crossbow will instantly destroy it). Then you want to throw a grenade in the hole where the panel was. A normal grenade (concussion grenade I think is the name). After this is completed on the front and back the circle underneath you will disappear. Then you can step off of the gen. You’ll have to do this every time in order to do damage to Razorback.
On the front (the side with the window you jumped down from) there will be panels on the left and right side of Razorback. Any damage done to these will remain until both are destroyed and you do damage to Razorback. It’s best to use tac-50 to destroy these panels. The back is basically the same except the panels are on the top of Razorback and directly in the middle. These are also easier to destroy. You can only do damage in 1/4 intervals. (Assuming no one is doing overdamage).
Every so often a heavy will spawn and run to the SAM sites in the corners, you’ll have a few seconds to kill him, if you don’t he’ll launch missiles that will kill everyone. Causing you to wipe and restart. After you get Razorback down to half health there will be two heavies that spawn (at different SAM sites). After you get Razorback down to 0 health go back to your SAM site. Then when it starts to blink you shoot it. Directly in the middle where the button is. If you don’t destroy it in time then missiles will launch and you’ll wipe and have to start again. After you’ve destroyed each SAM turret that’s the end. You’ve completed the raid :’)
(Ik this is hell to read. I’ll try to separate it some)
@low mulch
do you think there are any LFGs that would be fine if my mic isnt active right now, i know what to do and i have a handful of clears, just for future reference
need one person for the raid
God nobody wants to take any new people through the raid at all
is there any way to check if i'm at my weekly key limit?
Check the amount of keys you have on the resources tab
got it. thank you!
You still get keys from razorback so you can farm some keys even if you got all the others ;)
Can anyone explain how to do the keychest reset glitch?
is it necessary to use the computers at Boomer, or can you just use the miniguns again to destroy them?
A, B, C, D laptops etc
Doing computers is better. Otherwise the NPCs might become a problem for the team while the nodes are up, Boomer might be in position to be downed but the nodes are up or the turret overheated taking the nodes down so you're not able to down boomer etc, so if possible don't let the nodes come up again.
Thanks, about how much time do you have to enter the computer combo?
Sorry, no idea really, never dropped everything to stop the time. Maybe 15-20 seconds I would guess, or maybe 30 and it just feels shorter.
is hard hitting a good perk for raid because I have made a elite damage build? (if you respond plz @ me)
Yes @low mulch Because it's multiplicative on top of the dmg you already do, it will be easier for you to kill the yellow adds and do dmg to the bosses
I just did the raid with my clan, bunch of first timers just trying to get experience. But holy f*** SH*T DUDE, I'm surprised that we didn't even wipe on the very first stage when getting into the airport goddamn. I've lost all hope in myself to do this raid, just how the hell do you people do it in 18 minutes or less? And we can't even get Boomer down 50% Armour !!??
I've got all the mechanics figured out for Boomer but the execution is just so butt clenching and just... god damn dude all for just an exotic ar!? Hell for that I'd do it for 3 exotic caches ( 0 _ 0)
We doing the raid for the challenge and the fun it provides @sharp dew not for the exotic. The hardcore players do it in 10 min or even less simply because the raid itself doesn't challenge them anymore. But don't expect to just do it too. You'll need very specific builds & a good group who practice together for a while to achieve that. At your stage of the game (by the impression i got from your msg) all you have to do is just raid for fun. There're numerous guides on the net for all of the mechanics just make sure your team familiar with them. In my exp, most raids fail because of lack of communication. Make sure everyone is on comms, and that there's one reletivly exp player who give orders - that's all it takes for a successful raid. Good luck
I mean boomer was fun but the problem is I doubt I could do it, and my team kept getting wiped. Also I have a good build already with 92 WD. I just need more practice probably, I'll give it another go since I really dont have much to do anyways before NY comes back here
You missed my point i think. How good is your build isn't the question. You can do the raid with all 8 ppl running TP gear sets (it has been done before). Communication & knowledge is the key here. Also getting Boomer down in one or 2 fases require a certain build. Don't even try to achieve that. Kill him in the 'old' way (everyone focus him when he's kneeling)
K I'll just try to get more experience then
Yeah it's all about practice, learning the mechanics and how to react in a split second if something doesn't go as planned, which it always will, being able to read your team and realize what to change where to make it work etc.. Just have fun in your first runs and get a feel for everything. Maybe run discovery more often, you might find someone via the matchmaking who is willed to lead your team and teach you.
It’s more about the mechanics and team work @oak lynx Ads themselves can be killed easily but the bosses require different tactics to kill. Easier to watch some videos on YouTube how to complete the bosses to get an understanding
thanks
I wanted to try using my aces in raid. what do I need to do?
"Keep roll it. But make sure you proc it at the right time, to be specific you should try and proc it on the bosses only (everything i'm gonna say right now is under the assumption that you running with a SOLID group who actually knows what they're doing). On the rooms before each boss (tarmac, contaminated) make sure you stop using a MMR after you have one of the combination:
- 1 Ace, 1 Eight, 1 random card
- 2 Aces, 1 Eight, 1 random card
- 2 Eights, 1 Aces, 1 random card
Keep flippin cards until you got one of those combination and then switch weapon (to another type. I personally use the EB/AR). On each boss try to enter the fight with Aces prepared (again one of the combination above) and proc it when requested. Your build should be able to deal dmg even when not using MMR so i advise to do some investment into your favorite secondary weapon"
Credits to @vagrant wing for this aces "guide"
oh aight thanks!
@sharp dew boomer you need to assign jobs to each player , players need to kill ads not shoot boomer , someone needs to kite boomer , then 3-4 of your hardest hitting dos guys shoot him in the head when he goes down . Then rotate in a circle . Problem with most is everyone wants to shoot boomer and causes chaos . If you have anyone on your team with a nemesis bleed build I highly suggest just let them shoot boomer only and the rest of you kill ads and do computers
@vagrant wing Ok because my build has every armor piece with hard hitter so I do a 150% more damage to elites
bruh
@sharp dew I can grab two of our clan members to help your clan if your interested . My GT is same as my discord
I heard that hard hitting stacks
@low mulch it doesn’t
Be sure to watch and read information that's up-to-date
@low mulch look at your stats . You will see it doesn’t stack . No talents stack
when did it change?
what is a good elite damage build?
51 to 55 dte mask and hard hitting , if you want more add a badger tough piece
what is dte? (sorry been a while since I've played about half a year)
Damage to elites
k, what perks have this
k
It’s a red dot
is there anyone that has a like raid clan I can join?
@verbal mist how many red dots does the mask need for that?
Just one red dot . It will say % Damage to elites . . You farm a good one and roll that dte on a mask of your choice
k
is having a savage wolverine/shield splitter and chatterbox/chameleon build something that would work for the raid?
any1 doing raid?
most people who play ars are running with an ar and merciless spark combination
@past dragon what kind of ar?
Probably a Famas for the rate of fire? Not 100% sure though
famas or if you like a more controllable weapon it's m4 or maybe honey bagder
Ps4 raid? Hmu
Would new raid come with the new expansion
no

it is slated for spring though, between now and sometime in june
a new raid exotic will most definitely happen again
even with the backlash from eagle

Bulletking
can you only get 4 keys each week?
do you have to have 8 people for a raid? or can i just wander in alone?
LFG
@tender hollow you could just waltz in. But it’s scaled to 8 people
Just come back from long break
Did they cut eagle bearer damage now?
I am pretty sure touching 30k before ..
It seems impossible touching that number again...
15% decrease. It’s still possible tho
Yes they nerfed eagle severely. Good news though is a shotgun got buffed 🙄 .
it's very possible. i have 28.6k on my EB right now, and that's not even with all max stats.
Does AWD affect specialisation damage.
Can anyone tell me some good call outs when it comes to each boss such as positioning?
quick question my gear score is 248 what is a raid and can I do one?
Youve gotta have 499 or 500 and even then a decent build not hardwired as many people use for some goddamn reason
@oak oracle "bEcAuSe SkiLl BuIldS aRe GoOd" nah, idk why ppl try raiding with that stuff lmao
I mean. For general pve they are good 🤷♀️
If it’s their first time raiding it makes 100% sense to use it there as well
Why did Stacy and manny or Henry launch mortars at Washington airport
No sadly hardwired is utterly useless for the raid and that makes them too because they rely on skills whollly
Yes. But without doing the raid you don’t know that. It’s good in heroics and general pve. So it makes sense to assume it would be good there
what dps is good for the raid?
Does anyone wanty to start up a raid lobby?
1 looking for raid psn same as name
Does the raid only drops gear set bp once a week? Or every run has a chance?
Green gear on first run only, resets Tues. 1AM ET
Anyone wanna do the raid? I know how to do it
Looking for raid psn killernamedbambi
@here i’m returning to the game after being over a year away. does the eagle bearer still come from the dark hour raid?
@autumn oak Yes it does.
i cant sleep at night not having the EB buy my side
better get some sleep meds then
I am knew to raid any vids/tutorials to teach
YouTube
LOLL
i finally got my eagle back to 30k
after grinding some gear nonstop
34% AWD + 71 % AR Wep damage ....
They dont feel as good as before....
Can we get an auto ban for mm raid members that cant stay online for 5 Minutes ? You go offline during a raid, 24h Ban for MM ?
And a Report function of Raidleaders that are afk and not starting the raid. I got put into the same raid today 7 times between 20.00 and 01.30 and he still didnt start a raid.
And a ban for people that go into raids bht have no Idea what they have to do ? Jesus most mm raid players dont even know how to use enter and tab to answer of they know theyre job or not
I tryed mm raids for 3h and didnt finish a single one. Only in one raid I managed to get the middle part out and start doing real dmg...
But people didnt nade in the razorback, only shot one plate, didnt shoot the bottom wings
Im so close to just uninstalling everything deleting all accs like steam uplay etc and just leave earth, find a tree on a new planet and hang myself there.
God how baindead can people be ? Really give me some bots for circles and shooting circles and I run it alone.
And some good.loot not 500x the same trash
anyone have good build for tip of spear?
Ok im at my wits end. Can someone drop the Eagle Bearer for me???
@wide chasm Understand the frustration but asking to have any inexperienced players who don't know the raid be banned is just idiotic. plain and simple. That's the kind of people you WILL get where there is matchmaking. Either find a good team or get used to it.
^

@mystic star https://youtu.be/NX1hPailyv4
Yes, it is. Chameleon is also good though.
@carmine dawn dont you not have a mic
@oak oracle no i dont. I dont use one, but im able to manage. Why? :)
A mic is pretty important in the raid
But ive already been in 2 complete ones without one
So you got lucky the group knew what they were doing
What im trying to say is the clears dont matter they just want comms
Also whining about not having a useless gun doesnt help
@oak oracle im not whining, im just slightly disappointed it didnt drop this time. And btw, of course i got grouped up with people that knew what they were doing cuz i too know. And how is it useless?
Anyone up?
@hollow shore yo
need help in raid
@wide chasm said “mm” raid members. What does that mean.
@hollow shore ugh. Wife just told me I’m finished playing for the night. Sorry 😦
Anyone else?
@carmine dawn I think “useless” meaning it ain’t hot stuff after the new expansion hits.
@hollow shore why don’t you post your request in #lfg-raid-pc
People are looking there.
Nope i mean the eb is utter garbage
@royal sapphire Try in #lfg-raid-pc
Do Raid and strongholds here have special mechanics like in breakpoint that requires Mic ? Or are They just linear like normal mission but more difficult?
Raid does. Stronghold doesn’t
My team did a 4 man full raid. We 2 phased boomer, 1 phase weasel, wiped on buddy and Lucy for GL ammo and 2 phased them, on razorback we wiped for tac50 ammo and 8 phased it
What build is typically used for Raids and what weapon is normally used. I've seen rifles, ar's, and mmr's.
Mmrs and ar are the most used. For the builds the most usefull build is a aces&8s build. Every group needs one or two. In the raid you need more dps than survivability
Everyone should use a 3pc aces if they can’t dps
That's one way to do it. But definitely not the only one
@worn sorrel oh ok, i can see that :)
Helloo everyone can i gey some help in joining a normal raid?
im new to this group and trying to find some people to go for a normal raid
Tbh, between eagle and bearer and chameleon, I still like using my chameleon more often for aggressive rushing
I wanna do a raid but every one is aces
@misty hound lfg is down one, try there
what do you guys consider good dps for the raid
back when raid just come out, my clan do damage test before anyone allowed to do raid, if you cant touch
1,5 - 2M damage on named target on shooting ranged...
Its not good dps then...
i guess that method is outdated now @ivory charm
haha
that is an interesting benchmark , but actaully a decent idea if you want a ballpark range
and have no other ways of testing
lfg fresh run
ok then im fine at 1.7 mil
How often do you get Eagle and Bearer? I'm not an hardcore gamer and I will try to get it with randam groups. I can imagine it wouldn't be very efficient, so I'm trying to figure it out my odds 😅
1% from each boss. 10% from the box after you beat the raid
has to be on normal difficulty not discovery
I just did the raid on lfg yesterday and the raid menu is telling me boss looted 0/4? Don’t they reset after the weekly reset?
reset hasn't happened
reset is in 7 min
and maintenance in 1h 37 min
EB has a 0.25% droprate from each boss and 10% from the chest, is what i heard
1%? 0,25% Is that right? 😳
It's almost a impossible for a gamer like me o probably just will beat 1/2 bosses for week 😣
Plus, there is a weekly reset, right? Do I have the chance to beat the same boss and drop the EB every time I want or just 1 boss per week?
@south solstice you have a chance, per boss, per week. You also have a chance to get it by using 5 keys to open the loot box after razerback.
I know a few people with several hundred raid clears and nobody has ever seen an EB drop from one of the 4 bosses. All EB i (or they) have seen came from the box at the end of the raid. So good luck @south solstice if u want to get one without finishing the raid. Finishing isn´t too hard, and since most people who do the raid on a regular basis have several EB its not too hard to find somebody that gives his away...😉
Oh, and what do you mean with "just will beat 1/2 bosses for week"? Do you want to leave the raid after Boomer or Weasel? Then good luck again finding a group that carrys you if you leave before the raid is over...

@tawdry island
That is another thing: only 1 person can get the EB from the box, right?
If it drops from a Boss, everyone can get it or just one person?

@tawdry island
Obviously I in do the full raid. I'm just saying that after seeing videos of people doing, it's hard to it, specially in a random group where not everybody is strong enough or know what they are doing. So I'm guessing there will be need 3/4 hours to a group like that do it and sometimes I don't have that time during the week.
Btw, thank you for your reply 👍
I can do the 4 stages with different groups during the week, right?
You just can get your build ready, watch the vids and listen to the players on the lfg it should take you about 15-50 mins to finish the raid in the exp groups. We finished yesterday in about 50mins by 6/8 only using pistols
That's impressive, congrats 👏
@south solstice we play on pc, just to mention that
@tawdry island
That is another thing: only 1 person can get the EB from the box, right?
If it drops from a Boss, everyone can get it or just one person?
@south solstice if u have 5 keys, u can open it, everyone has their own box
@fossil pendant when several people open the box everyone has a chance. We had runs with 4 EB at the end which came from the box. Same with the bosses as everyone has his own Loot. Of course you can share, whether it's from the box or the bosses.
that's what i said
I got one from boomer, 2 from Lucy and rest from chest
Lfg raid same name as discord
I did my 82nd raid last night... Took two new raid players through there first raid and both got the EB. And a couple of days ago took another player through there first raid clear and they got the EB a Flawless and a 28 minutes clear time on there first raid... Not bad if I do say so myself
Im doing raid now... but i have always bad people in my team.... so i cant get trough Boomer...
I need raid I cant find any play to raid with so this is my psn Junaidi-24
Lfg for raid to carry me thru psn ur-ogbombthreat
We sped run the raid with a 9 min timer
man i really wanna get a raid going later, try to get myself a smexy rifle 
Anyone running a raid on ps4? Experienced.. trying to get EB
@tender hollow are you console? Ps4?
Yeah PS4
Geezus did i read that correctly that you ran the raid in under 9 min... if that is possible you guys are nuts...
Pretty awesome tho.. Any PS4 groups that have an open spot if you are confident you could show me the ropes n still get the clear with a noob id be grateful.
got kicked for going rogue lol, i'll join back in a few mins @harsh vale
Ok @hallow lodge
shoot me an invite back @harsh vale 
I sent it
weird, i didn't get it
Anybody looking for raid ? 2 Spots left
I want to do the raid
Can someone DM to agree to raid when im able (and them too)? I can't at the moment, but id like to set it up
Wait, do i need to wait for the weekly reset for the bearer to drop? (If i already finished it, im just missing Razor)
finally beat the raid with a discovery group of all things
got absolutely nothing, no gear set items, no eagle bearer
heartbroken
Lazz from what i was told by a dev for bosses you get one chance a week on all bosses but if you have multiple keys to open box you get more chances
keys? as in like normal black tusk keys? cuz i got wayyyy too many of those
according to the game, still haven't done the raid 🤔
my next boss is Boomer, who has gear set drops, and blueprints still, which i didn't get before
@hallow lodge not black tusk key, its the dark hour key, you must play the raid on normal difficulty to get the Blueprint, and chance for EB to drop and from chest...
well, btw congrats to finish that on discovery mode.
ye i just figured that LMAO im so slow
We need one more for raid 1. we are stuck on the last boss. Please help!
Discovery doesn’t drop anything anything outside of the normal loot pool
What is discovery mode ?
Story mode for raid
The easy mode to explore the level, learn a little bit what to do/expect.
Looking to do my first raid any sherpas out there I have 244k armor 112k health 79% damage to elites am I good to go? Also I just got my diamondback i love that thing and I’m hoping to get this Eagle Bearer from this raid
I will b available around 2:30pm EST
I’m looking for a squad for the raid
@buoyant onyx Try in #lfg-raid-console
Thanks
sir i have question? how many times you can get keys on the raid?if you repeat and repeat the raid you get another key? if you run 5 times raid you get 5x keys?
sir i have question? how many times you can get keys on the raid?if you repeat and repeat the raid you get another key? if you run 5 times raid you get 5x keys?
@outer thicket what key?
all keys of the raid
i think you can only have them once every week or when the loot resets. yu can see though when there are still available keys. I think its on the top left of the raid menu
You get 4 keys (1 from each key box after boss encounters) 1x a week and 1 key from Razorback each time you beat it.
okay
@outer thicket No idea if it's intentional due to the changes with exotics in TU8 or a bug but you can get 5 keys for every raid run currently. The raid leader resets the raid so there is a chance to get the EB every time you do the raid.
Is weekly reset account or character based
Can you lvl 30 boost and just swap loadouts in stash to rerun the raid
I not got EB
how much dps should i be before i even think about raiding?
22k on ars or 80k on svds with 75 dte
thanks @placid raven now i know... thanks for info .. ^_^
Ugh another fucking wasted week
The people that were in it were all awesome, but my god, the 1% and 10% drop chance for the Bearer is stupid.
Stop whining about it and keep trying your doing no justice to yourself by complaining or any of us
@oak oracle yeah, problem is i cant get it this week, since ive finished it. And knowing people, nobody's gonna want to do it once the DLC arrives (which i totally get).
You can get it no matter the consequences
@oak oracle ???
I have gotten 5 in one day
@oak oracle oh...wow...does it drop even if you've completed the raid that week, then? :S
@oak oracle ooooooooh...thank you so much for clarifying! I kept thinking it only had a chance to drop one per boss per raid. Thanks alot :D
make sure the party knows you are going after eb, so theres a chance of them possibly dropping it for ya
@tender hollow will do :)
How long is the raid? What's suggested for it?
It is up to your team on how long it is and your build choice is up to you
Hey, am curious, there a way to fix the Raid chest bug ? I can't interact with the chest at all. Yes, it's normal.
From what I'm seeing in the voice channels it's a group of 8?
I got 15 keys. 3 runs, different groups and the chest is un-interactable
maybe there are still ppl interacting on it ?
usually thats the problem why u cant interact with the box
Nah, tried it. Someone told me relogging works and it worked once but it's LFG, people bound to leave or sometimes you relog, you're out of the raid group entirely, hence redoing it all over again
can anyone help me do the raid
can anyone help me do the raid
need 3 for raid
@jaunty sierra me
need 1 more for raid
raid ?
need 2 more
@jaunty sierra me ?
need one more
@jaunty sierra ask in #lfg-raid-pc
Is anybody here doing a raid? I really need help doing it for the very first time and I’m seeking the eagle bearer but with no luck until now
If you are looking for people to raid with use the specific lfg channels:
PC: #lfg-raid-pc
PS4: #lfg-raid-console
XB1: #578577794561474571
guys last time i do raid i stopped at RV , do i need to find a group at RV to start my raid or i can join what ever even fresh ?
You can join any group in any checkpoint or none at all @hazy skiff, also worth noting that your checkpoint is reset on the weekly reset (tuesdays)
i have a sniper build, tried to put together an ace build but the game hates me... any crew could carry me with sniper? I just want the eagle bearer xD
Idk if new players have seen this, but keep this open when youre running raid for reference https://drive.google.com/file/d/1djwjeJ60UZtdEjCHGN5MI8e3mA9x6QJ1/view
How long does the raid usually take?
how does one raid?
depends on the group. A good with good DPS and no wipes, maybe 20-30mins. A group that has wipes a lot, could be hour or 2. I'd dedicate at least an hr if your going to do it
@timid finch Depends on the group really. Between 7:24 min to 3.5 hours 🙂
dang 7 mins, best so far in a pug for me has been 17mins
Well i've done it in less, and there're way more exp ppl then me who done that in sub 8 min
@past vapor there's an NPC on the helipad in the BOO. Go talk to her, create a raid, invite 7 more ppl and good luck 🙂
so is the kenly college a raid?
Nope. The NPC will have 5-6 options to go to (can't remember the exact number). You're looking for the one called Operation Dark Hours (has a yellow icon). You'll have to be at GS 490 or above btw
oh ok thx m8
i do at the very least run the discovery version of the raid before before doing a normal. It will give you a little bit of insight on how the fights "kinda" work. Bout the only one it does a bad job on is Razorback
That's incorrect. Weasel has some changes too (and i'd argue that all of the bosses work differently, but that's my personal opinion). Good advice tho, @past vapor watch a guide or two OR ask for someone to explain the mechanics to you unless you want to suffer a bit of course 🙂
oh no i got to lvl upp my gear before i raid
Did they say something about this raid's keys working on the higher difficulty/lvl40 raid?
i don't believe i've seen any mention about it, im bringing forward a full stack of keys as a "just in case it does" much like im bringing forward the crafting mats for each of the 4 craftable exotics "just in case"
@loud vessel Since there will be 2 versions of the raid (lvl 30 and lvl 40) i'd assume the keys you already have won't work on the lvl 30 version. Although as @smoky tapir said nothing is confirm yet
That seems like the best thing to do. I just wanted to ask about if they said anything about it.
LF squad that can help me in the raid, I haven’t don’t it before so I need help
This section should only be discusing about raid...
Try #lfg-raid-pc if you pc player and need to find a team...
Btw you can try to do story mode raid if you never done it before, they have matchmaking system...
Any recommendations for builds or weapons to run for the raid
Thx
Can I get help with the raid plz
someone told me raids couldnt be done with shotgun 😆
hey i am looking for someone to play a raid with.. Should be a normal raid (not the discovery mode). Trying to farm the Eagle Bearer... Have never played a raid before... Can someone invite me for one?
Anyone wanna give an Eagle Barer
anyone looking for someone for the raid. ive done the discovery mode multiple times but never normal. im trying to get the eagle barer if anyone could help me out
With Gear 2.0 coming, will Dark Hours see some more build diversity?
@agile dragon im willing to help u out since in need the gun aswell if we get enough ppl
need help with final part of the raid on normal 6 more players needed
just wondering if people would run raid next week?
next week our gears will change, so we need to adapt first
what does it take for one that never did a raid in Div2?
Buddy and Lucy are real! WATCH THIS: Autonomous military robots navigate an underground plant
https://mol.im/a/8058171
hi guys someone want to play on normal difficulty? i need 5 more players
Yet
Hey guys have been doing the Discovery Raid and wanting to try my hand at it, rn just looking for a build
Can i get another chance at eagle bearer if i run the raid on another character?
yes
I’m looking for a team to make hardcore characters and get the raid done, please have over 10 raid completions, and a lot of time played and experience, message me if you’re interested, please have good stats because I’m not risking it with a bad team, only players who are more than capable.
Looking to do a raid I’ve never done one but would love to try one out I got majority of the exotics I’ve seen people use in the raids if anyone has a slot open I’d love to join
@broken portal Yes, yes you can. Raid keys tied to character instead of account.
Is the Normal Raid the only source for 10-E Base Materials?
@sacred isle yes
Armour gets depleted way too fast what specific stats should I boost to prevent that from happening ?
What's the average Armor, you guys have for a raid
Is 10-E bae materials farmable in the raid? Even after weekly completion
@crisp merlin only every week with the keys i believe
Also go to your lfg xbox emoji guy
Hi
When is the raid reset
Today? Suppose to be Tuesday
@tender hollow not for me it's not 😦
is the raid scaled up to level 40 now?
or is it just gonna be ridiculously easy if you have a team of level 40 players
Is it just me or do I not like gear 2.0
something wrong with talent poker face on backpack. it didnt work
raid reset yet ?
so whats the raid situation like with the removal of DTE? It must be fucking insane?
I've been doing CP4's with global difficulty and it's harrowing to say the least
How long does the normal raid take? Assuming fairly experience group, but no like 100% optimised speedrunning strats
People aren't going to do raid for a while
Until a far amount of people have their set
are aces&eights still good for raid? 😄
ye if you run the normal raid you need ace and tips
Though aces and tips don't have group perks anymore ;)
stat wise what do we need for the raid now
i assume now that damage to elites is gone, its all up to raw dps
I guess x3 providence, x1 fenris for AR, x1 ceska is the new meta, + 1 optional e.g. whatever marksman is or chd
A&8s is a pure dps build so...
is there a new raid map or just a new difficulty ?
I don't see how Legendary is doable when struggling on challenging with bunk stats and 2 talents. 3 prov, 1 fenris for AR. I saw someone talking about The grundge and running the SMG set, any feedback on that?
Yes I realize it's day 3 for PC players, I'm just a whiner
Anyone wanna do the new hunters for the masks ?
are gear scores still a thing or is level 40 the highest
Check Clan > Roster
oh i see
What’s a raid I’m new
An 8 player activity, with 4 encounters dropping elevated loot and chances of exotics. all encounters with exiting mechanics and challenges
looks liek they also fixed the whole shoot the heavys in the butt bit now
Nope they havent i guess it just on some heavys?
Why is raid so bad
hi there!! the aces and eights build is still viable in the raid?
i have been making a build accumulating headshot damage plus some sniper rifle damage and a bit of armor
I think to get to a sweet spot of dmg with a rifle is stack a bunch of headshot dmg with a big of rifle dmg, with that in mind aces may not be the best if your going for straight damage but I may be wrong as I’m not a rifle/marksman player
Hosting raid on PS4 must have atleast 3 raid clears add me Kl4psy-
Rifle with crit ive been 5 shotting ads to the head and they die pretty fast
how's the raid now? has anyone here completed it since WONY?
Eb from the raid isnt good i got 2 today but its still pretty weak
weak ? no dmg ?
i am level 30. hvnt Raid before. Looking for people to guide me.
My lmg on my rifle crit build pulled in 20k more damage without unhinged
Is the raid scaled to lvl 40 groups or does it have enemies at lvl 30-33
like, can a lvl 40 group just go in there and just decimate or will it be more balanced
Scaled to 40 and your specialist weapons are useless on rb
What's the requirements now to do raid? Like 100% dmg?
i feel like GL are still solid on rb because of the drones tbh
Looking for ppl for hunter mask
I would not think about the raid right.
Make a good build first.
so question
is it still worth doing the raid after i finished the dlc? never done a raid wanna see what the raid experience is like on this game
If you want EB and blueprints, yes. If not, no
Anybody attempted it since the dlc dropped? Is it even doable anymore?
Yes, check the leaderboards, some groups are already running again, well on XBox at least, but guess even more on PC then.
I just wonder cause it took me and 2 others like 20 minutes to capture a lvl 4 control point yesterday... enemies are all damn tanks now
game became insanely hard latele and i dont know the use of that, are you guys having more fun now?
cause i dont
Make a good build im enjoying this way more than gear 1.0
its not more fun. also its not harder, its just tedious how bulletspongy the ggame has become once again...
I just hit gear score 513, and don't have a lot of exprience. What should i do before a raid to get ready
somebody have defeat the last boss in raid after TU8 ?
yo i think the general difficulty has risen up since today's morning
98 teams did the lvl 40 raid up until yesterday @frail scroll
is the raid still at level 30 if you dont own the WoNY expansion?
Yes. There're 2 versions of the raid. 1 lvl 40 and 1 lvl 30
yeah i mean the lv 40 raid.
My answer was about the lvl 40 raid @frail scroll . 98 teams completed it as for yesterday. You can check for yourself
@vagrant wing 98 team is a name or is a number ? xD i don't understand
That's the number of teams who completed the raid
they're a subsidiary of 99 Team
Yeah the number i said was true yesterday. I guess more completed it by now
if I get blueprints and/or backpack/chest gear from the lvl 30 raid, will this make the backpack/chest be in the lvl40 random loot pool?
No
id like some people to help ?
the new update just came out and you guys are complaining about bullet sponge. you arent supposed to cap right away, it's not supposed to be easy right away
Is there separate blueprints for lvl 30 & 40 gear set items? Or do you just have to get one blueprint in order to use them?
Its separate
They aren’t separate @vagrant wing your blueprints get updated as you level with the exception of exotics ( for now ) @clever heath
so regarding the chungus unarmored butthole now being armored, whats the best way to deal with Razorback chungus' that launch the missiles?
3 last for raids ???
@azure fossil his ass
@oak oracle still their ass? I thought it was armored since TU8
Nope i can still spray his ass and kill him before he hits the silo
you mean you still do straight health dmg instead of dmg to their armor (in the raid)? Because outside the raid, heavies have armored asses now.
Yeah the boomer in the raid is the only one with this hidden weakness now
Thanks @flint reef. Is the blueprints and the raid the only way of getting the chest and pack for the sets? Or can they randomly drop in the world?
question: I've been out of the game for about 4 months. cleared the raid dozens of time before that. have EB etc... and had a decent raid build back then. do you have to be level 40 now to raid?
@thin flint there is a level 30 version and a level 40 version, you can do either but more people might be more active at 40
How much headshot dmg is good for raid?
my clan completed Razorback yesterday and we had 2 dedicated healers running Hive / chem launcher doing circles to help when we did DPS. Myself and another clan member was running Jammer pulse for Drone / Warhound duty on DPS phases. We also had a guy running the exotic chest for those clutch bouns armor heals on armor break.
@azure fossil I can confirm this the Chungus DO NOT have armor on their BOOTYHOLE so you can shoot them there and bypass the armor
https://i.imgur.com/LANwUcZ.jpg I was fortunate enough to get a lvl 40 EB yesterday 😄 along with another clan member https://i.imgur.com/8FpYQhF.jpg
What's the new stuffs to be wary for the Lv. 40 ? Do tag / DM me about the details, curious.
@unique dove boomer and rb all the rest has been a piece of cake by my experiences
@oak oracle Still the same ? I saw someone posted about special weapons doesn't work on the bosses ?
Curious what that meant
Oh yeah sry yeah my tac was hitting boomer and rb for 150k-1 mill with my crits im almost at 175 chd
Eh, can you still 1 shot crossbow the panels or builds now able to burst it faster ?
Crossbows as that shit has alot of health nearly took us the whole starting part of rb opening to spray it open
Wait, what ? So it doesn't 1 shot now ? Gotta DPS the panels to break it open ?
Crossbow one shots still you practically need 2 now though
Cool, just 50 Tac does lesser damage overall and nothing else changed.
Only use the tac on ads and you should be fine also demo is useless now
Eagle bearer isn’t worth it anymore
What is a good DPS build now for the Raid?
Is there any raids that I can join I do have a mic would prefer to join a Xbox Party
?
What is a good DPS build now for the Raid?
I second this question
feels like the Heavies on Boss are easy as fuck, while the weakpoints got buffed massively
I need someone to carry me I really want the eagle bearer
same 
Only thing i actually want is "Tip of the spear" blueprint, because backpack and chestpiece are only obtainable by blueprint from operation dark hours.
I never done raid, and i cant do it alone. i am not dps build, and i am inexperienced in raid. and i never gonna be experienced in raid i ever gonna get to join one. i am running very strong tank/support build with "tardigrade"
all i just want is that blueprint.
Tos is dogshit now
How much dps would someone need to do the raid?
you want to be a serious hitter, especially for clearing adds @ Razorback
idk what the deal is, but the elites that spawn corners @ razorback now are raid bosses themselves. Need to be dealt with in every corner if the team is able to do anything at all. Pestilence probably
Are the bluebrints able to be obtained on discovery raid or is that normal only?
normal only
Has anyone got the negotiators dilemma chest piece and backpack from the raid and can tell me what the talent is?
@azure fossil how serious are we looking?
Pestilence is dog ass go for straight dps
has anyone ran the raid today and noticed that jammer pulse are no longer killing drones at RB?
Getting only 75% of drone's health down with a skill build on RB. We haven't had any issues 4 clears before that.
Eagle bearer is trash now @jovial walrus
How difficult is the raid now compared to before TU8?
Tu8. 👈
Tu7. 👈
It's not hard aslong as you have a solid team to run it with and your builds compliment each other's
What up danny boy
Hey czs! How's it going? Enjoying the raid mk II?
Yeah boomer is a bitch though with out the right builds managed to finish it a day after ash and everyone did it
You do it with ash and tubs?
Yeh we running it now, I was asleep when they got that 29min time lol ran it a few times tonight taking a few people through for there first clears. It's good fun again now we getting used to old school tactics again
Nice im working on a chunk build again but with my normal build my headshots if crit hit for 11 million
Stuck at the electronics grinding such a pain in the ass now
What kind of build i should have to bring to raid,
I have this really powerful tank/support build with tardigrade exotic and over 50k armor regen. but i heard people only want dps builds
my build definelty saves lifes if theyre about to get shot to death
but if people only want pure dps i am working on striker set, need just farm bit electronics to tweak the substats
well it depends really
back when the raid was really active most just ran a DPS build really
that means people got used to those tactics for it, I actually bet some new builds like healers or tanks can actually be quite useful
but it depends if people are willing to try them out, or just refuse and stick to the old methods
well my problem is that i actually want to get in the raid for first time and ive had very difficult time to do so, people only seem to want people who are already very experienced in raid and are super dps.
I just want to get blueprints for tip of the spear set
understandable yea
you need to look for a group that takes in new players, which are not very common I'd say
I am trying to build my clan up so we can do it but it's going slow
people are getting bored too, a guy I was running raid with before is also not playing that much anymore
I understand where you're coming from
can you help me get raid up?
if I manage to get 7 people ready in my clan the 8th spot is yours
but I cannot promise you much
Have the exotic chest build people probably wont like it or have vanguard it has saved me in all parts of the raid countless amounts of times already
i have tardigrade
the one that gives 80% of my armor as emergency boost armor to u if ur armor breaks for 10s
Yeah every raid ive been in its had that chest and that person being complimented because they are running the chest every raid
I do have pointman too, so if someone else has tardigrade i can switch to my pointman
Nah just have the chest toss on some gila knees and roll armour on for 1 million armour then stack dps so you dont hit like a marshmellow
thanks for everyone joining my raid.
or is it complete and utter garbage

thank you
Whats Discovery difficulty?
What is a decent normal raid build now.. LMG x3 providence 60 CHC higher CHD?
I have a rifle with 59.5 chc 171.7 chd and the overall awd/rifle damage is 109.4 it deals with everything pretty well
@tender hollow
I have a rifle with 59.5 chc 171.7 chd and the overall awd/rifle damage is 109.4 it deals with everything pretty well
@oak oracle Wow. How close are you to max CHD?
There is no cap
My goal is 200 but i need to work on other builds
Maybe later i will finish it
Maybe later i will finish it
@oak oracle nice so in the next couple of weeks it will get closer to 200 even though you aren't targetting this gear
Thats the extent of my plan yup
I have a low roll m1a i can boost it by 9 if i get a prerolled boomerang and chc
I got boomerang 14 rifle g 7.5 chc 17 chd on the shittiest rifle earlier
do people sherpa raids or does everyone learn via discovery?
idk why but nobody knows how to defeat razorback in discovery
Hosting raid at Razorback cp need 7 must know what to do and have clears add me Kl4psy-
Any groups out there doing raids
I’m on Xbox Idk why it says in PC
Do u have the pc role selected @jovial walrus
Idk I’m kinda new to this
Go look in server roles
In raid, the boomer boss. where you can see, what A B D or C computers you should interact and what computer you should NOT interact with.
you should interact with the computer that the monitor above it is on
what is the meta raid build now?
I wish the game was cross play would make it easier for console players to find people bc most or on pc
what console are you on?
Xbox
what about the integrated LFG? i used that to find all my raid groups when i was on xbox
I tried that and a lot of the people I played with are new and didn’t know what to do
ah damn /:
Yeah it’s kinda tuff on Xbox ngl
yeah i switched to PC a while ago. pretty much right after the raid dropped i switched over to pc
See all my friends all 2 of them that play the game play on Xbox or else I would
makes sense.
thats why i played xbox to begin with. but then my friend stopped playing so i switched over
idk why but nobody knows how to defeat razorback in discovery
@balmy hawk its because 6 out of 8 people are new or are on a skill build
ehhhhh... i'd get annoyed with that really quickly...
its really not hard if people just know how to play and communicate
Raid meta now?
Razorback is only Boss avaliable now ?
Beat it with randoms yesterday, now what next ?
Hi everyone. Looking for some advice on the raid under TU8 - Our group had many clears in Tu6/Tu7 and last night we attempted to basically try our old strategy and see how it worked out essentially with DPS builds primarily. While it certainly gave us a run for our money, Razorback was impossible and wondering if other groups have suggested builds and strategies for it.
are you running emp pulses? They make short work of the drones that razorback spits out
@broken lantern as you saw tac 50 does nothing to weak points . Have to go ol Skool and dps the weakpoints . Focus on front front back back or vice versa.
Pulse jammer on drones
Someone told me the shock trap works .
I’m almost thinking ads 3 and 4 agro drones like ol skool
what exactly does "reset progression" do for the normal raid, provided you've looted all bosses/keys in the week?
u basically reset the raid so u can start it again. u won't get the box keys, but razerback drops a guaranteed key. plus the raid bosses still drop some heroic level loot. @azure fossil
RV6 for a quick Razor provided u know what ur doing
we are done sherpa so if u dont know it u will be kicked im sorry but this has been ridiculous
@molten ether thanks, you basically just don't get blueprints etc
nope

yo do u stil have a chance at getting the eagle bearer even tho you have already run through the whole thing the same week(r u still able to get the eagle bearer the same week you have already complete the raid the same week?)
Raid seems to be all over the place atm. It bugs out more often than not. Yesterday we couldn't come past boomer but today it was a breeze. It seems to jump up to heroic a lot
@red stirrup eagle bearer can drop from any of the bosses on raid, and after you complete the weekly reset you can just join raid 5 times to get 5 keys and open the chest again
the chest was already the second time this week once u open the chest i dont think i can open it again a second time the same week
You can’t shoot the grenade launcher at the drones on Razorback anymore?
is anyone ready for a raid on normal difficulty?
LEDADET
does anyone have problem with network stability on raid ?
LF fresh raid i have 11 clears im looking for experienced players
can u still get a key everytime u defeat Razorback?
anyone doing a normal raid? Im pretty experienced with all the bosses and what to do.
@neon berry
looking for a tank for Capitol Legendary, last area
On razorback has anyone gotten a god rolled item out of the named item pool
are people running vigilance and/or glass cannon in the raid?
are people running vigilance and/or glass cannon in the raid?
@deft rock both work well
*and
is the uptime on vigilance good enough? I feel like there tends to be a lot of crossfire in the first/last encounters
guys whay so many people are stuck at last boss? what the problem? and how to solve it?
How much are ppl willing to teach new ppl the raid? I never did the raid when it came out cuz I never had ppl to play with and my gear build was never that good. I recently came back after months break cuz of the Title update 8 overhaul.
is anyone here doing a fresh raid? i am also new to doing the raid so i hope teaching me wont be a problem, and i am also trying to get the eagle bearer.
@marble arrow tbh just look through the fights on youtube and you are good to go
I see
LOKIN FOR NORMAL RAID LVL 40 PLAYED IT BEFOR SO GOT XP:d
Hey looking to do lvl 40 raid have experiance
this is not the lfg channel, try in the correct channel @unreal light @calm field
anyone know how much skill damage you need to kill the razorback drones with one EMP?
anyone know how much skill damage you need to kill the razorback drones with one EMP?
@tidal oar Zero skill tier. It is different now. A zero skill dps build with zero skill damage can run emp pulse and take out the drones.
can someone explain to me how the blueprint drops work? is it guaranteed or ?
@solid swan you can only get the bp once every reset on raids
what does the absolute most damage possible on Razorback & it's respective weakpoints?
damage to razorback is probably the last concern imo @azure fossil
i am aware, but I am genuinely curious on what the best hitters are using on the weakpoints and "eye" for maximum damage. As I understood it from TU7, the rumor/fact was the weakpoints or "fins" were armor damage and the "eye" or main damage point was health damage -- just as an example
How is the raid supposed to be now? One pulse drones at rb or not?
So question, I prefer to run it blind and I'm quite new can I still find a group?
Yes but it's hard right now, give it a few weeks then the raid teams should be back to carrying
But I don't want a carry and learn the raid instead
Everyones first raid is always gonna be a carry
No it won’t
Just find other people who haven’t done it before. You might not complete it, but you can get that fresh “blind run” feeling
The thing with this hits especially hard if you don't have the New York DLC, I used to run the raid regularly now it's impossible to run it for me because I legit cannot find a group for the level 30 raid and I cannot compete in the level 40 one since there is no upscaling
What is up with Razorback? Are his drones bugged or so?
I don’t believe so. Tac doesn’t work on weak points and (I’m assuming you mean the grenade launcher) doesn’t appear to work anymore either. They just go right through
Grenade launcher no longer works on drones as it did . But if you wait till they lower you can splash the ground and they kill them
Need Razorback group at 3pm eastern time, 7 whom have competitions on the level 40 normal preferred
Got 2 checkpoints to knock out, message DidIgetChuBruh7 for info
So what's the new meta for raids after the Warlords because I have 1.5 million armor and I went into discovery mode Lucy aand Betty whatever the names of the 2 warhiunds made short work of me
Lucy will one shot you no matter how much armor you have
apparently a tank running Bulwark shield can take that headon. It basically takes of half the health of the shield on each spin. I've personally experienced that on Normal raid. not sure if any other type of shields can survive it though
So if you have run the raid, and missed the Keys, can you do it again and get the Keys and open the chest?
LFM RV 1 on razerback must have experience
@vapid jewel yes. Even if you got the keys there's a way to open the chests again
@molten ether good to know. thx
@vagrant wing oh okay thanks, and how?
did the buff the raid , we are struggling and kinda struk on razor back 🙂 ?
Yeah... Razor is really hard right now @onyx elm
sup im trying level up quick anyone wanna help
Hi, I have some questions
I did the full raid on normal yesterday all 4 bosses. if I redo it again, will I have the chance to get raid exclusive gear sets? or do I have to wait it until reset?
I'm just trying to farm Aces & Eight gear set
I'm just trying to farm Aces & Eight gear set
@bitter gulch you get 1 gear set blueprint that you havent already got from each of the 3 bosses once per week. I think A&8 backpacks and chests can drop at any boss any time. So if you are lucky and the A&8 backpack blueprint straight away, then you can start crafting them yourself
@tender hollow thank you very much for the information 🙂

jesus christ how do you even kill buddy and lucy
i've played raid more than twice and we always end up disbanding at B&L
Kill em both equally and fully, the transparent bar is your guide
If either of their hp (B&L) goes past it, an overcharge will activate. This heals them back immensely
You can cancel this overcharge by interacting with both laptops on the table facing each other in the middle of the arena
Buddy and lucy is a stress test on groups, i would recomend to split them lucy in front with 3 players doing damage and buddy in the back with 5 players. Always take buddy as reference an keep up on lucy. Kill them both at them same time. Its not that hard just stay relaxed and dont get stressend
good tactic for Buddy: keep damaging him if possible when ever Lucy spins: this way u counter his Heal he gets after her spin. Found that beeing the biggest issue in random groups, tho.
What's the average run time of the raid
Depends on your teams communication,builds and team synergy @willow spindle could be from 20 hours to 20 minutes
Eeeeesh okay
Hey guy's watsup wear trying to do the raid again if anybody wants to join send me a msg need 5
