Hey guys, is there somebody who could help me? I try to get the exotic pistol from the iron horse raid, but i cant even get past the 2nd boss, cause i dont understand the mechanics 😄
watch youtube vids
It depends on where you play. 2nd fight takes coordination and communication. Tank with high resistance reads codes in the boss room. Control room takes the code and reads off an image. Players outside of control look at a panel to find matching image that was read off. They proceed to shoot yellow box connected to panel with the correct image.
After several stages of this, a player needs to go into boss room to shoot weakpoints on ceiling. After that, players need to turn water valves to a total of 90% (no higher). There are 3 locations at a, b, and c. Once they are turned, tank goes in and sprays water at cannon. (This is the cannon that you must shoot rockets at.)
Finally everyone goes into one doorway (usually b) and kills boss.
and the 3rd boss is worse, but the 4th is easier
do buddy and lucy take headshot damage?
i googled this and couldnt find an answer i think no unless you achilles pulse them
The "head" is the glowing red bit
mantis HUD needs to know this
Are the fox prayers necessary for dark hours?
One of the best pieces in the game. Necessary, no. Highly recommended.
how to get open doors on iron horse?? is there any way to transfer the bug from other account to another??
hello, anyone for dark hours for EB drop?
you want #lfg-raid-pc
test each of your characters and see if they do it its a glitch you cant transfer it.test by creating raid and starting then reset raid and you can change character too if you get it you can start sending raid invites.you dont need open doors to kill fiesler with nego
@remote fossil you need a real gun DPS build to do IH as a new runner
sniper only works in 4th boss and 3rd if you know what youre doing, and bulwark doesnt really work at all unless youre doing key tank last boss
ok then.. I ll work on it and get back one day.. 🙂
oki
any advise which one go for?
all red with obliterate on the chest and vigilance on the backpack with 3 piece prov, coyotes mask, fox's prayer, and 1 piece ceska. 60% chc and at least 120% chd
if you want a rifle id run M1A with rifleman and for AR id run a famas with fast hands
for the specialization id run demolitionist, and skills would be reviver hive and assault turret
thx a mill.. i ll look at it
Afternoon Eevee
How do raids work? Can anyone give me a general summary so I can understand
Raids are 8 player missions that require more teamwork and more coordination than normal missions, involve more bosses and also have specific loot that cannot be dropped anywhere else. They come in 2 difficulties, as well. Discovery is easier, with matchmaking and less mechanics overall but no exclusive loot, and Normal, with no matchmaking and more mechanics, but you can get the exclusive loot.
Its not worth it to play discovery, as you cant get the exclusive loot and also wont learn how the mechanics really work.
If I remember correctly, the discovery one was introduced because people were "unable to find a group of players" so they wanted quick matchmaking. As expected, when I joined the Discovery raid (to get the cheevo for it) - I was laughing and crying at the same time. Nobody was caring about the boss - pure ads door-pressure from every gun possible
So, raids are just the content not for you - you are not forced into it at all (which is great)
But don't they have some exclusive loot?
don't forget blueprints as well
legit just 4 parts of 2 gearsets, chest and bag of FB and FI (but they'll be in the general loot pool next update) and then the 3 exotic weapons
Eagle bearer, Ravenous, Regulus are the exotic weapons
Would anyone want to do iron horse?
Check #lfg-raid-pc
K thank you
Hey isabel
Hey Saph 
how do i not be scared about doing overwatch in dh
it freaks me out
one wrong move and the boomers will cause a wipe
and
it’s not fun
i had 7 boomers come out my door the 2nd raid i did
i got downed twice and almost caused a wipe both times
Don't use overwatch then?
i am usually placed there cuz i’m a low shd level
Oh, you mean outsides... thought you meant the Overwatch talent lol
Dunno if they told you this, but you gotta shoot the boomers in the butt. They have no armor plating there, so they go down rather quickly
ye they did
but still they scare me
focus on the one that is manning the missile
If you do outside make shure you have minigun works great, also use a turret as a 2nd defender
If your outside 4 put it on the barrier, outside 1 something. Outside 2 on the tall stack heading to 3, outside 3on catwalk
I normally run outside
#1 Know your spawns. Every corner has 2 spawns its responsible for. As you get more experienced you'll learn when to expect ad spawns and when you will have breaks. Out of your two ad spawns, one of them will spawn quicker than the other, so learn which spawns first and check that one first. If they arent spawning there when you expect them to, they will come out on the other one.
#2 Call for help as soon as you think you might need it. Ideally your circle partner will be ready to go back into circles if you dont call for help, but if you need help they are there to back you up. If both of you are down/may go down, make sure to let others know your corner needs help before its too late.
#3 Having a proper dps build to take them out quickly is key. if you need to use it, the scorpios CC makes this easy, but ideally you'd be using a rav if you have it to help break weakpoints.
#4 Skills: Everyone always seems to suggest an assault turret, but I think its very overrated. It will give you some distraction on 1 of the spawns, but thats it. Running chem foam is incredibly effective since they generally spawn in pairs right next to each other. foam them as soon as they spawn/jump down, and burst them down before they have a chance to get free.
#5 You likely wont be in charge of this as an ads persons, but the timing into circles can be key to timing when the chungas spawns vs when ads spawn. If you go into circles late then you can spawn the 2 elite ads at the exact time the chungas spawns, making your job quite difficult. The earlier your team gets into circles from the moment the chungas spawns, the more time you will have to clear your ads before the chungas spawns on the next round.
afternoon Raucey
Isn't the problem of assault turret being the dps that it give?
Gunning the heavy down with AR is much faster than that from what I can tell
If you're full red, you ain't gonna kill the heavy with a turret anytime soon
As was said above, it's more to distract thet adds, so they focus their fire on something else other than you
Just shoot ‘em in the ass
i use the turret for a support and the minigun as chungus killer
yeah so i run the turret and i short them in the bum but like you said when the plates dudes mess up usually the elite ads come and down me and then i have to call for the plates guy and the drone guy if he’s available
i’m trying to get the scorpio as well and i’m running an ok dps build but it could be better
Try to stay in cover, just don’t let the ads draw aggro to your people on plates. They tend to run off when you hide in cover. if you find you’re going down easily try learning the maneuver with the shield where you put half of your body out to take less damage but you still can shoot reasonably well
A decoy can also help
Shock trap can also do something similar to what was suggested above with riot foam
But you won’t have too much time to mess around with skills if you want to keep it simple, I suggest blinder firefly
You can use it on up to 4 enemies with +1 max targets
Likely an issue that you might face is you take damage when trying to reload cause you’re out of cover or something, I suggest an smg with unwavering and an AR with fast hands
The playstyle for an all red dps build is different as you need to stay in cover a lot. I recommend doing Heroic missions such as Lincoln Memorial to get used to the playstyle. When you can solo a Heroic mission on a red build, raids will be easier.
so i have completed the ironhorse raid in discovery and normal couple of times. but the project with inaya to make regulus is still locked. it says i need to complete iron horse?
can't be in discovery
saying I've done both sides, it still says locked
which part specifically is locked
the projects leading up to the regulus project?
or just the regulus project
near inaya trying to craft regulus, it says complete iron horse
you need to do the projects
do the foundry bulwark and future initative donation projects
bulwark and future projets?
this, then you need to do the regulus project
and complete the raid again on normal
the 2 projects are p much go donate all the parts of fi and fb and then throw some other stuff at it, then you'll have to do IH again to get the parts, then donate the parts and it'll give you a new set to actually make the gun
atleast thats what i remember from when i did it
you might want to just wait until title update 15 the gear sets will be added to the world loot pool
understood
anyone knows a fix regarding the bug in the raids when you cannot interact with the crates?
the final chests
Generally going to the Whitehouse and coming back fixes it
Hi! Have not tried to do any raids because of no machmaking but want to try to do Iron Horse. Been looking at youtube videos and trying to get the hang of it. Anything else i should prepare before trying to LFG?
tnx @dim wharf 😉
@tender hollow dont spam all channels, please re read the rules.
ok
I can't speak for the PS-Raid-LFG channel, but as long as you've got a proper build and a brain between your ears you'll be better off than half of the people I've seen in the PC LFG lately. Just do your best and ask questions.
Dont hide the fact you're new because we will find out very quickly.
Go play Destiny if no brain.
Mutecats and Soowers being the exception to the rule.
@dim wharf great gaming with you
Evening aspect
@proud crescent the way the regulus project works 1st do the raid (normal),2nd donate both BULWARK AND FUTURE INITIATIVES gear sets,3rd donate other gear pieces plus other components, Finally on a fresh weekly raid,after reset you'll get you regulus pieces to donate so you can craft the gun
It's 5 total projects
Is anyone willing to help a returning player through the darkest hour raid on Playstation for the eagle bearer I have nobody who plays this game currently but I would really like that gun for a build i will need some teaching ty in advance <3
Try in #lfg-raid-console
For some odd reason I was only able to see pc and I couldn't and still can't find th le console raid groups my app must be bugging out my apologies haha 😅
You only had the PC role, not the one for Playstation. But you should be able to see it now. 😄
I quickly realized I am an idiot 🙃 ty very much @valid marlin
Night Isabel
Hey Saph 
.
If I completed the IH projects this week, Can I get the regulus on a second character?
Projects are character specific, blueprints can be shared character wide. So it sort of depends what your asking. I think your asking can you complete the projects up to the point where the regulus parts drop and run on a separate character that's "fresh" for the week, that won't work. But if you complete everything and get the regulus blueprint, running a fresh character that doesn't have a regulus in their invintory or stash will have the regulus parts drop for them.
@polar scaffold for IH you want a DPS build to start out with, a DPS gun build
I'm not fan about traditionnal DPS. I like something different as like Tank or healer
for IH, running tank for 2/3/4 boss is very mechanics based and youll need to learn a lot
and youll need a hazard protection tank build
healer you can do 1/3/4 boss easily, but its optimal if you have future chest which you dont since youre just starting out
healing 2nd boss is again, very mechanics based and theres a lot to learn
Oh ok ok
youre a lot more likely to be a helping hand to run a gun build
I've one full % dmg crit and proba crit
Wait, i translate that ^^. Sorry i'm french
chc = critical hit chance
chd = critical hit damage
bag = selfcontrol
Chest = perfect head's hunter
Head = coyote (exotic)
52.9% CHC
128.3 CHD
194.3 Hsd
This is the build Eevee is correctly recommending for raids. There's uses for head hunters builds, but not for most of the raids, and definitely not while your learning them.
only use imo is rockets on morozova
Any tip for good guide for raids? I've watched some and nothing special so far..
Lol got melee'd crash
hey Eevee
- Spend more than
-1-2 hr grinding your DPS build gear. It does not have to be perfect. The better your gear the easier and more fun it will be, so spending time trying to get better gear is worth it. - You can get used to the DPS build by soloing Heroic missions
- Do Legendary strongholds in a group on any build
- Shoot from Cover to minimize damage to you, which #2 and #3 will teach you to do
- Dont come in a tank build and insist you do enough damage [if your new] as I've seen people get kicked
learn what to do from what you watched basically. if you're still lost don't be afraid to ask when you're in group
Hey Rendy0 got it right this time🤣
@fallen geyser You're looking for #lfg-raid-console
I've already done all of that.. I think I have a decent dps build. I just don't want to be totally clueless in raid.. 😎
how good is smg(lady death) build for raids ~50% chc and 168% chd?
Not overly, most of the time in a Raid enemies won't be within the SMG sweet-spot.
Overall you're better off going for an AR, at least until you're more familiar with the Raids.
@remote fossil since it might be your first time running raids just hop in 1 and let them know your new. If you've never done a raid I'd recommend DH 1st then IH
SMGS are good for door camping
anyone could give me a good advice on crashes ?
Crashes? Like game crashing? Just scroll through #unofficial-troubleshooting
FI chest and Foundry Bulwark chest are dropped only in IH?
Currently they're Raid Locked, but in the near(ish) future, FI+FB Chest+BP are being added to general loot.
Can they also drop in Dark Hours? Or its Iron Horse exclusive?
Iron Horse only, on Normal. When the new update drops, release date unknown, they’ll be available open world.
thx for info.. both of you..
am i alright to sned a message like "whats up? im here looking for anyone needing raid players/inv me" in here?
for group finding, use the #lfg-raid-pc
Hi, what is rv2. rv3 or rv6 which i keep reading in the lfg-raid-pc chat group?
i'm new to raid missions
rv2 = raid voice 2. theres a list of those in the pinned in #ask-td2-community to help.
Someone referred me to this discord, said this is 24/7 raid, but not getting any response back. Am I on the wrong place? Or is it just slow time of the day? 😐
are the raids hard ? never done one but wanna try to se if i can get a eagle bearer
I run my first DH yesterday and it was pretty easy... I guess I had a good group cuz we did everything on 1st attempt.. 🤟
it depends on groups builds and how many people have an idea what you jave to do
LFG what takes 2 player with them what dont have raid experience, to get the exotics, DH
#lfg-raid-pc is where you want to look
ty
lvl 30 can do raids with lvl 40 chars right? i assume everything that is dropped would be lvl 40 gear?
Apparently not the case, whoops
i see so the only way to get lvl 30 drops would be to find an all lvl 30 raid run?
You should be able to reroll the exotics to level 30
oh so if i get a lvl 40 drop i can lower it to 30? don't have dlc so not sure if its the optimization thing or not
You can purchase the blueprint from Inaya (after acquiring an exotic) and then rerolling becomes available for that exotic
ah right forgot about that thanks
I haven't tested this without the DLC, so I can't confirm if this is the case for you, but I'm pretty sure this should still work
one last question would my stats be equalized to lvl 40 if i play with them? would hate to be deadweight in a raid.
your item drops in the raid will be level 30 for you.
the core stats will be scaled to level 40, but secondary stats will still be level 30, so you will be handicapped sadly.
i see thanks for the answers both of you
@chrome sand Don't forget to pick the DLC up when it's on sale (if you can), since you're very crippled if you don't (like Azurmen32 said)
crippled is one way to say it 😂
What's the setup for maximum damage on Razerback weakpoints? I saw the notes under the Striker DPS setup on the Raid Google Docs, is it just that?

kk tyty
Sup Saph, hope you're doing well man
Will be doing iron horse raid for first time, what would be a good build? New to this discussion so would appreciate the help thanks.
Standard dps build is okey for both raids.. 🤟 @tender hollow
If i did the IH raid allready will i get the exotic parts drop for the regulus?
If you did the raid and finished the projects this week, you’ll need to wait until after the reset.
Thanks
you also need to move your regulus to a different toon
Which raid gives regulus?
iron horse, through a project
Okay
Total of 5 projects 1 and 2 donate the gear sets 3 and 4 donate other gear pieces 5 is the regulus
For someone who hasn't done DH before. How hard would you say that raid is?
Assuming you can deal good damage (ideally at range), follow instructions and have competent teammates, it should be a walk in the park
Although I will say that there aren't too many things you'll have to learn for DH
Div2 isn't available on the Steam Deck, sorry to say.
I was in a raid earlier with a guy who said he was using the steam deck to play
Seems there are videos online of people benchmarking it (probably need to custom something for it to work)
Last I heard, Ubi-Connect doesn't work on Steam Deck, if that's changed then it's likely that div2 is ready to go.
I went to look into it, their running it via win 10 and not the native OS so it’s causing a lot of performance issues.
Best to wait until it’s officially ready
Hello Mozzie! I think you should pick Dark Hour first.
Is it the easiest or something?
Even on Discovery, DH can still be tough. It really depends on your entire group, your build, and synergy between everyone.
Okay
Honestly with raids, they become 70% easier with voice chat. Comms are key
So I have a full squad of friends and we have supporting builds, we're all level 40 and use different specializations. Is that good or do I have to do better in preparation
Why not try it out yourself? It really depends on your experience and how you play the raid. Sounds like you have your bases covered for the most part. The other most important thing in raids is figuring out what you need to do during each stage of the raid.
This is where voice chat comes in handy. For builds, you wanna focus on mid/long range engagements. AR is always a fan favourite weapon for these raids.
I have a headhunter build
The White Death, Bullet King, All Damage Cores (2 max armor) no gear set
is it possible to get the gourmand patch on discovery mode on ih or is it locked to normal?
I got the blueberry one in discovery, so it should count the same.
thanks 🙂
Afternoon Rivens
You can get it after you complete the raids, just load up the raid on your own with the reset objective and destroy them all
would ND or a general red build be better for a raid dps build?
General red most times
Just use a meta red dps build
Am in that odd position where I have done IH 40+ times but have only down DH 3.
Depends on when you started playing the game. DH came out a while ago so it might be odd to a veteran player
But yeah that ratio is unusual 😂 I'm probably the opposite
hello all just a question should i get warlords and finish it before trying the raids or would i be right to do it without any expansions
You're better off finishing the DLC first and farming for an AR DPS build, since almost everyone on this server is at level 40
You'll have a much harder time if you decide to do it at level 30
ahhhhhhhh ok thank you i dont have it yet so will have to wait until payday but thank you
Make sure to wait for it to go on sale, should be around 9 bucks (dunno if this applies to console as well, since I'm on PC) instead of the usual 30
welp
i think i've done more ih than dh too
Which raid is easiest to solo? I don't have a group.
Damn.
You need at least 4 for both raids
but realistically 8, especially for any new player
9 if you have @cold elm
LMAO
Need help I am looking for the voracious
@lament nimbus Lol, you're looking for #lfg-raid-pc (and it's called the Ravenous, but I love the attempt)
Hey Raucey
same i got 16 IH in two weeks and haven’t done more than 3 DH because it is just too boring
Do I need to do the raid in discovery before doing in normal ?
Nope. Normal is available right away
IH is just more mechanically interesting with people needing to do multiple jobs.
yeah i like learning the different roles
DH is just pure dps
@junior tartan just have a good RED dps build to start
Yep, done the 2 raid today with some awesome people from here 🙂
can confirm that @junior tartan did great on the iron horse run with us
afternoon wyvern
@junior tartan now tommorrow youll get a fresh raids , and get more stuff
Hi Saph
Im not a pc player unfortunately
Hey rake
I haven't either.
I can’t get a 8 man together on ps lol, theres no hope
#lfg-raid-console Will help you to get a group together, or perhaps join a clan that enjoys doing them regularly.
Hiya
wrong chat, please use the console raid one. @spare depot@mortal mauve
Lol
Check out #lfg-raid-pc
Hey yall which raid has the future initiative backpack and chest piece in it? Im tryna put together a healer build
iron horse
Ty
only on Normal difficulty though
also, they're planning to move them to the general open world in the next update, if you're patient enough
Oh thats good news
still worth running the raid, of course: the exotics (ravenous and regulus) will stay raid-locked and are both useful and fun
Definitely worth running the raid now instead of waiting. This way you'll get a chance to get the exotics and get to do some of the best content in the game.
when is the raid reset in TD2 ?
Every Tuesday.
is the raid hard? bc i really want an Eagle bearer
nope
Depends on the team. 😂
it can take between 7mins to 4hours
Search group for raid normal
@copper trout just let them know your new and have a decent DPS build and your good
are healers needed normally or should i farm a dps build?
DPS. At least for the first couple runs.
@celest umbra most healers have a meta build,parts of which comes from the raid
Back into the game now that new content coming is a reality. Played everything in the game and original except for the Raids. Love Destiny Raids and I have been wanting to play DH and IH but most people don’t want someone that hasn’t done it before. Have great builds and PSN is NOISESandVOICES if anyone is interested in letting me join sometime.
try #lfg-raid-console to find players, or PSNs built-in matchmaking
Thanks @swift peak!
Isn’t the matchmaking just for the discovery versions though? I will definitely use the LFG.
ingame matchmaking is for discovery, but I'm sure I've heard PS players say there's a PSN game lobby facility that works
What's the difference between discovery version and the regular version of the raids?
Discovery is harder than the normal raids but has less rewards
What's up,need that eagle bearer
@mint elk is right; while Discovery should (in theory) be easier, it's not, given the lack of communication and terrible builds that I've seen
And trust me, matchmaking doesn't make up for the horrors I've witnessed whatsoever
@mighty plover Okay to clarify, Discovery has weaker enemies, "simpler" mechanics, and none of the Raid-locked rewards.
It is designed as a first-timers way to get a look at the Raids, however it's advised to just go straight for the Normal mode.
As long as you let the team know you're new, have a decent Red crit DPS build, and know the basic idea, you'll do fine if you listen to the Raid Leader.
There is no benefit to discovery mode at all. Get the standard DPS build in the pinned sheet, doesn't need to be perfect. Rifle+AR.
It's immeasurably easier to find someone hosting/host your own group in the lfg channel.
Afternoon Wyvern,Rivens,
Hey Saph 
Been trying to find people on Xbox to do dark horse no one reply’s like wtf man
You've been asking in #lfg-raid-console, right?
I've heard most console players tend to use the ingame chat to find Raids more, since it's a lot more active than PC on average.
Heyo, new here. Wanted to ask if its worth doing raids on discovery difficulty for loot
Nope
@gaunt ridge i do PS console, loot is great, some better than DC and NY area. Uncertain for PC
Raid on discovery is a shitshow without any kind of communication (not always, but usually)
If you have guys who kwtd, it could be fun without mic 😅
For Discovery the loot is the same, except you cant get the exclusive raid exotics.
DH Discovery is fun, and 1 person can guide the team through with the right builds.
IH Discovery is a mess, because any one of the 8 people can easily cause a wipe or create infinite delays on 3 out of the 4 bosses.
thanks for the info guys
I heard there was a loot reset, how much is the interval to get a reset?
It's weekly on Tuesday for the key boxes
like the plane lootbox earlier on DH?
No. The small boxes that you opened throughout the raid. Those you can only open once per week (and per character). However, you will always get a guaranteed key from the final boss, so if you want to open the final chest once more, you will have to do the raid 5 more times.
You might also get lucky and someone else pulls the EB and drops it for you
so u can do the open minibox to get 5 key weekly or doing the raid 5 times?
There's no limit on how many times you can do the raid. Basically, you get 5 guaranteed keys on your first run after reset (Tuesday) and then one key for each completion until the next reset.
tbh I think I only open 3 and somehow got 5 at the end
Well, you can do the raid once more and check. On your next run, all the key boxes should be open, which means you got the key on a previous run already
You remind me of a time I played with a dyslexic dude leading the raid
@timber ginkgo English only on this server.
Check the pins 📌 in each channel to see how to post.
people how can invite or join with people here im new..
whats the command?
It's all done ingame/via Ubi-Connect.
Post your ubisoft name when someone asks for it and they can invite you in.

sorry for that
is there any written guide and role for each section. I dont think I can just dps only.
watch youtiube videos
yea I watched some and kinda not really understand
that's why I need like a detailed breakdown in written form
what part you don‘t undertsnad and what of it?
probably english is not my first language. so yea. I think I'll try to watch again I guess
it was on IH raid.
on 2nd boss, what other ppl doing while the decoder shoot the red box? I was curious about it. also how does control panel guy decode and send the code to the one that shoot the red box? (also there's lika a 15 25 15 and b 15 25, I don't understand that)
on the furnace, I have no idea beside shooting mobs, and they talk about I only follow blue and I just go to blue area and kill ads, I think there should be mechanics I need to do. also Idk why u dont shoot the turret's canister.
on 3rd, what does the rpg does? I eventually want to try that . I usually just go for right door
when I watch video also I don't understand some part of you shoot valve which valve? also there's a 2nd floor in the furnace?
glad that you are interested to know more, i can answer you one by one
I dont want to be a burden red dps. that's all I care
You're not. You're killing adds, so you're contributing.
People running tank builds on DH are a burden.
I mean DH is simply dps check. IH on the other hands. I also need to farm regulus
Shooting mobs in the furnace is doing a lot more than you think 😂 well unless you're not doing it fast enough...
By shooting valve I think it's referring to the alphabet part near the end?
Who allow this? Won’t teammates ban him?
did u know I did DH after doing it with yours. and we reset the razorback 5 times because we got wiped
somebody on out decide to shoot the chungus head
🤣
and we found out on 3rd reset
that their butthole is where they're most ticklish?
that's where everybody is the the most ticklish :>
Probably that person was using Headshot build 🤣
😳
To be fair, though... if people don't know because they aren't told, then stuff like this is bound to happen.
idk. I think some guy in the raid told him shoot him in the butcheeks. probably the barrier language prevent it to get across
Yeah, could be. Then again, people will often just not listen at all to what anybody is saying because they think the raids are just another mission that doesn't require comms
A lot of players want matchmaking into Normal Raid Difficulty. Imagine what would it be without comms, especially IH
you just gotta play discovery IH with matchmaking to get a glimpse of what it would be 😄
So you're pushing me into crime of insulting random agents through voice chat, right?) xD
It's actually quite entertaining, seeing like 4 people locked into control room on boss 2, slowly roasting in there 😄
I remember our group on the first day of IH release.... 4 hours on the second boss without success, trying different agents layouts. What a fun it was)
Generally not as the rest of the team can carry a "tank", unless the rest of the team is trash. However I been in raids where a tank dude rocks up and starts arguing that they do enough dps with the raid leader, and the raid leader just kicks them, and its hilarious.

This is the best IH guide out there
@feral dove since it's probably your 1st raid in IH I recommend a meta RED DPS BUILD. And just let everyone know that you are new,so you can get keys ,trophies ,and a little experience. And yes it can overwhelm you the fist time. Have fun and good luck
oh yeah I do. I already run IH 2x atm but I was always late to party now
Ok
kinda not confident doing other thing beside killing ads
that's why I am asking about the thing above
Ok when you do control room you need a meta healer build ,parts of which you aquire thru the raid
There's a lot going on in the control room at the same time.1. Calling out symbols 2. Opening and closing doors to let people in and out to get code and rockets. 3. Water 80-90 on the dial. 4 and most importantly staying alive
A "meta" healing build is not required but good to have, same for "meta" DPS.
@rigid plank I'm just talking the control room ,if you scroll up you'll see where I addressed the META DPS
Oh and before I forget morning Raucey
There is not really such a thing as meta DPS but uh yeah
Some know it as the FMJ
I run keytank w pointman, when I do dionostics
Uhuh
It's 95 percent hazpro
ok
I'm immune to everthing except initially blast
ok
I can even stand in the lava,boss take damage I dont
You trying to prove something?
No I was curious when I put it together everone was saying how good it was ,so I had to find out.
But for some wierd reason I'm a frigging foam magnet, I get hit by everone and everthing that has foam and gets stuck
They turn me into a foam statue
And not a good one
I thought you had 95% hazpro
That's my wierd quirk
I'm still struggling to relate this to a meta DPS build
Oh we're well off that topic and good morning
It is evening for me
Ok good evening
For a meta red build I run 1. Coyote mask 2. Providence chest w unbreakable 3. Providence holster 4. Providence backpack w vigilance(the gift) 5. Contractor's gloves 6. Fox's prayer kneepads
60 chc and 190 plus chd
By meta red build, you mean this is the Meta build?
Yup also know as the fmj
The only change if you like danger is going GlassCannon on chest
But meta for which part of the raid exactly?
Both raids and all the way thru
Didn't meta mean most effective build?
At one point maybe
But that 3prov, foxs, coyotes, grupo is the meta red build because you'll see it all around, its become a meta
So now meta just means the most used build
That's basically what's it's used as
Meta also because its hard to get a build thats easier to use with similar damage
I saw lots of people running drone turret, that is meta too. Can I use it in raids?
It has good damage too and easy to use
Turret yes and healer drone
Its a meta skill build, but no, skill damage just doesnt compare to red builds for the raids
So turret and healer drone build is good?
I use Turret when I'm running dps for both the damage and distraction
I use healer drone in control room
But I always have a revive hive in dps
Hey shookfish don't l take this the wrong way just asking..... have you done raids?
You've got my curiosity up.
I've done a few
Ok kool😀
is there a way to consistently stagger morozova without ravenous?
by claiming you prefer the Division 2 setting & atmosphere to Div 1?
if you don't own the ravenous is recommended so somebody else does it
if you really have to and nobody wants to change (it happens)
ask the healer to run ravenous and stagger when you call
it's not a good way buit its a way
also emp sticky (I THINK NOT SURE)
Emp sticky (any sticky really, emp just has the lowest cooldown) is just used for holding marazovas agro. You can use demo launcher, merciless, or stinger hive to stagger her if you don't have the rav. Explosive sticky bomb staggers, but it won't come back quickly enough
^
I've recently heard someone describe meta as Most Effective Tool Tactics Available. I think it's from metagame originally, the game above the game. Maybe it's both?
Meta means most effective tactics available
and no, full red usual dps build is not meta for most raid roles it is just the easiest one people can put together and use with minimum knowledge
meta is not most effective tactics available, its the pre-fix of metagame.
I’m looking for a raid for DH
quick question if u run ih and get the projects in order to get the pieces per alt char do you have to do the projects as well on the alt chars?
or is the project acc wide
you can do same projects for all your characters, that is how you get more than one regulus
@rich ether #lfg-raid-ps
i mean do you have to do the the same project to get all the regulus pieces since ur tech suppose to wait a week per piece or is it u can run ur alt without ur alt doing the project and have a chance to get the pieces for reg
No have to do projects
ok
One you have the regulus, you can get another one on each character every week, and you don't have to do the project on the other characters, just as long as the character that does IH does not have a regulus in their inventory and there are no regulus in the weapons cache. i.e. move all regulus to another character(s). <- assumes you have shared blueprints
@tender hollow your thinking of the ravenous at the end of the raid...the regulus is done through the project
its regulus. you can get one each week for each character, after you have done the project for the first time on any character + have shared blueprints + have no regulus on the character and in the cache
so on the regulus do you still have to wait a week before you go and do the final part of the project and collect the drops?
|
yeah, on your first run after reset, each boss will drop one of the exotic components and the final one will be in the chest
do the demolitionist specialisation grenades from the launcher do damage to the shell during the morozova fight?
It doesn’t do very much
oh so it does something but not a lot
Big number on damage from grenades vs. giant hit point of the shell.
today tried discovery IH and it was on last boss. man reseting for 20h is no fun because somebody spam drone on the boss
how rpg should be used on the last phase? (from the first 4 mortar into last time killin the boss)
Don't do discovery, not worth it in the slightest
Always shoot the bullet first until it's dead. First phase only you destroy the mortars, after that ignore them. Take a pair of rockets into the middle to use right away on the next phase. When the bullet is dead on the last phase just leave them on the ground until marazova is dead and your ready to end the fight shooting 1 last one to finish it.
but in here, everytime ppl LFG IH, it's always full in next 2 min. I keep being late to the party 😔
oh yeah I got the gist of it
but when on the first opening mortar, it also load the red bullet, and we have 2 rpg atm, which one to shoot?
Bullet first until the cannon is down, then shoot the mortars. Two rockets each. Each phase after that, only shoot the bullet with the RPGs
Doesnt mean discovery is worth doing. When you want to run IH just watch the lfg chats for a bit, if no-one starts one up just start your own.
oh yeah I want to start my own while telling that I am the fresh one. and it apperas that I need to clear the discovery first to start a normal difficulty raid
Its as simple as "hey i want to learn IH so can some people teach me?"
no one cares if you've beaten discovery, the mechanics are different so it really means nothing. Just watch the RV channels and jump in when theres an open spot
i will host one in 10mins, i can DM you if you want
Uh i just shut down my pc. Ok i will wake up. ping me so I can immediately join (my ign is Okuta-)
are the raids hard to learn?
i think theres a few guides out there that give you a decent idea of what you should do
and after that just hop in to a raid
why we need in jammer in DH?
Killing all the drones on razorback. It lets everyone else focus on damaging razorback and clearing ads
u ever have to raid with someone that it causes u pain to raid wth
yes @tender hollow
yeah bc im carrying you all day 🥱
"asian don't kill the sniper"
spams 8 oxidizers on sniper
🤣 ♥️
Well someone who doesnt understand mechanic to prevent wipe is pretty much like that
There's a difference between a newbie and a straight up idiot
Any reccomendations for a decent dps AR + Rifle build for the raid that dont involve exotic weapons?
Thank you
Huh?
@glad turtle famas or carbine 7
?
Even if it was like 2 super specific situations where an exotic weapon caused a "glitch" in a raid, I doubt a person learning raid builds would need to know that 😐
Also "generally they dont want exotic in raids" is just such a stupid, absurd statement. Don't even know what to say to that 
also if you know anything about raids : "generally they dont want exotic in raids" should make you only laugh, bulletkings for the snipers, ravenous for morozova and scorpios for the doorgaurds, just to name a few
Wdym exotics glitches things up? Scorpio is the only exotic that glitches things.
Exotic has nothing to do with it. It's about firing multiple bullets at the same time
Sorry, can't understand whatever words you just pieced together
@rigid plank dont try to make sense of it, i was hoping he was just a troll, turns out i was giving him too much credit, with all the stupid stuff he says it has become clear he is just an fool
it's not about exotics
it'ß about pallet shotguns
shot it with any pallet shotgun and it will deny
It's anything that fires more than 1 bullet per shot
even if it's right
Includes ravenous/sweet dreams/Scorpio, which may be why some people have misconception that exotics cause it
Technically it registers as both correct and incorrect
But it'll cause the code to change
it doesn't progress does it
i see
i remember something about it when speedruning it
But the subsequent code have to be shot immediately, if not the code will change
i see
But mainly Scorpio is the weapon that bugs out most things in IH
Ok, from where you learnt exotics bug things?
Moroni a fly away?
Morozova fly away?
Wow, that's new to me
How come I never seen it
I think I did before, once..twice...
everyday...
TP away or fly away..?
It'd be cool to see her fly
That's because of getting her with a status effect at the right time. You can do it with a scorpio, but it's generally easier to do with foam. It doesn't have to do with being an exotic though
If I shoot chameleon, does she fly away also
We are all aware
So how come you formed the conclusion exotics bugs out the raid
All of them and 1 of them is big difference
speaking generally literally means speaking about most of them
This whole thing started with this comment which makes zero sense. Just move on, you clearly don't know what your talking about
dont try to argue with an ignorant fool like him, hes trying to drag you down to his level, where he will beat you with experience.
Okay that's plenty, move on.
does your pistol or AR fire multiple bullets at the same time (like a shotgun)?
no unless ur using like a firestarter or backup boomstick
Morning Shookfish,Raucey, kettle
hey saph
Howdy!
for the 4th boss oh IH can you use foam for stagger?
No use stick bomb
Ravenous *
so yesterday I tried A, I did the code and valve but unable to do the rpg weakpoints. what shouldI do and what should I shoot at that point? on some video I need to shoot ceiling and the cannon with rpg . can someone gimme the rundown detail about the rocket on A?
like when to shoot the ceiling, or shoot with the RPG.
You shoot the rpgs at the cannon 45 degrees to your left on A. The weakpoints on the ceiling are different, just shoot those with your gun, they dont have much health. You shoot those after you get 5 correct codes to move the crucible over the cannon to destroy it.
Morning Raucey
Man I feel so awful idk what went wrong on my last raid. I was pretty sure I send all my valve and the control panel said it isn't enough water. also I kept overwhelmed on C, is there any tips to help holding C while do the double reading code?
and when on the last boss of iron horse, can I shoot the red bullet with normal weapon? It seem deals very miniscule damage
Tamperproof can help alleviate ads with the assault turret. Shooting bullet with normal weapon doesn’t do much
@feral dove its better to read codes on A/B because its more controllable with ads, same for water/weakpoints/rockets. its also easier for control room to focus on one door but u usually need 3 ppl on C if ur doing codes there
oh we only 2 ppl there. idk if it needs 3
1 person to read codes or tank
oh the tank. yea I dont see him at all at c. so it's actually 2 exculding the tank
tank usually goes A so C is mostly ad control and wasting rockets
You generally always have 2 people on C, one covering each wifi box each. Once you break glass and no one is needed to cover the chunga/purple upstairs they should generally come down and help cover ads on C.
Turret and tamper proof are a very effective combo, but I personally prefer foam freeing up your chest talent to whatever you want. I think foam is pretty underused by many players.
when the glass break? is it after doing the 5 decode?
glass breaks when no one is in the main room to take his aggro (i think he throws 3? grenades before it breaks), weakpoints are after codes. you can have someone taking aggro so glass doesnt break but then you would need someone top to kill chunga/purple
how do I know then chunga / purple appear to shutdown the panel?
is ther any trigger or just yea they are suddenly there
they spawn roughly about every 30 seconds. there will only be 1 "spawn" of them alive at a time, which is why after the purple stops going after the box you can just ignore them and leave them upstairs. Purple stops going for the box a little while after the glass break, although if they spawn shortly after it just breaks it may go for the box 1 last time.
The stinger hive is the poor mans ravenous
Or emp sticky
*any explosive
even concussion or frag grenade if you're feeling it
Man the console phase after killing Williams really do be like that huh, sigh
Huh?
Sorry just venting about the console phase after killing Williams XD
Was watching your attempts with Lunar today 😂 you were so close at one point
Pain
All we had left were those dang buttons man
It should be freeeee tho
like damage phase just has to be so perfect
other than that its not bad at all
ITS DONE
WILLIAMS HAS FALLEN
Hey, Astro, sorry to bother you. Have you updated your spreadsheet with the material prices for Grade upgrades for weapons / gear? Thanks in advance
I have not yet, sadly did not have a chance to play PTS 3 but plan on updating them sometime soon. Ill have them posted to my twitter when I get to them!
Thanks a lot for replying 👍
Afternoon sanitizer
how the hell u skip the 2nd boss of IH the reading code one
wym skip the boss, like one shot it?
You'll need ND for that. I mean for one shot strat.
you need negotiators build with rav/dch/d50
dch?
you're transferring nego damage on feiser on a chunga or ad weakpoint
dodge city holster / ravenous / d50 with perfect glass cannon
ahhh
but I saw this one, it seems u need to use the low wpn so u can proc everything before killing the ads https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOg_0CGn4Fk
its the same except but that requires more teamwork and coordination
can It be more simplified? or just like what u said earlier
healer can use btsu for team OC, but if they use acostas they have to pulse the ad or chunga themself
There's two basic ways to do it. Like boomer said, the one in Astros video takes a bit of coordination with team buffs to make sure you have enough damage to kill.
The older, slightly slower but easier version is to do the same basic thing on the chunga that spawns upstairs. This is generally what's used if you see someone do it in a lfg. Like Boomer is saying, you rav stack off the chunga +D50, and this will hit for considerably higher damage than just DCH + regulus. You can also have multiple people on ND taking a shot on the chunga, making your chances of pulling it off much higher, since there's only 1 weakpoint on the rpg ad version.
the only gimmick is that you're on a shorter time limit for that since getting to the chunga (especially on C) will be more difficult as your nego mark could wear off before you take your shot. sometimes the chunga will roam top but you have to get it as close to the stairs as possible lol
you can also just not crit xd
chunga will go for a melee, purple can still be alive, other nego guy might break your weakpoint, etc etc lol
to the extreme, can I do this solo? instead duo nego
what's attrribute for D50 Dtooc and which talent?
k so the thing is.
- I need to tag the boss then run immediately to top to find chunga
- kill the prurple guy
- stack red ravenous on chunga
- switch to d50 and shoot the weakpoint (which is the red square on hips) then hopefully crit?
Tag the boss and bring him down just just a hair over 4 bars of armor.
Do an amount of damage, either on the purple or chunga that brings the boss to 4 bars. Doing this while rav stacking basically combines 2 steps.
Shoot the chunga on an achilles pulse mark. Generally you get an overcharge from the healer so you have 6 to choose from. If your rav stacking the idea is to build rav stacks to get huge amounts of bonus damage to armor plating, and hit an achilles marked armor plate on the chungas.
I will need the d50 first its interesting nonetheless
Make sure you stack the blue stacks rather than the red and as @echo burrow said shoot any piece or armor as the ravenous buffs armor damage massively.
Also i keep seing [LFN] tag and ppl were so excited
'o no 2 lfn guy'
Are they like the clan that mostly run raid?
So you go blue shoulder, shoot until max stack switch to red shoulder, shoot, then switch to d50?
I’d recommend stacking blue shoulder twice then switch to d50 and shoot
Lemme check if it is twice one sec
Hooo interesting
Oh ok sweet, I couldn’t remember.
The Achilles pulse really do be the best skill in the game.
We do indeed like the raids
Oh hey meowcat long time no see
Has anyone attempted the rapid response merit in DH? It involves killing boomer with agents not using more than one turret in a single round. Aside from using the speedrunner strats, how did you guys achieve it? I have a few other questions too:
- Does the first turret usage to destroy the nodes count?
- Can an agent on 41 use 45, and vice versa?
- Can an agent use 41/45 multiple times?
Thanks for any advice on the matter!
you cannot go back onto the turret once you leave it. this means you potentially have 16 tries total, you can go on 41 or 45 only once per agent. so 41 breaks the nodes they can either stay on it or kite 45. but someone else has to go onto 41 for next boomer down
We did It in a very schematic way starting with 2 guys on the turret, then they invert the turret.After both of them shooting with each turret one time, they swap role with 2 guys making computers/letters. Same thing, and swap with the other 2 doing computers/letters. Boomer should be dead at that point. The real issue, Is the kiter not losing aggro, and keep concentration and focus High in all the group members
Thank you for the advice! Will attempt again!
Consistently double down and have the person on the turret do the pair of downs just staying on the turret the whole time
IH boss 4 speed run method the last phase do we stay in the middle or go back to our door spawns? Most groups i play with do the latter but some groups do the former. What one is better?
looking for 2 for DH
@tender hollow #lfg-raid-console
thank you sir
You rush to the very back so you can teleport keys to the tank on the minigun
The speedrun ways is need a lot of techician specialization (at minimum 2) to have both skill resist electric/shock to 100% and multiple charge of reviver hive to mitigate margin of error either die by electrical fan or tactical nuke, and ofc some healer might be needed too. And yes u stay in middle. If they say 'Faraday' it means it's the keep urself in the center
The one that u goes back to your own position is way more safe and slow. The staying in middle is fast but risky. Of actual wipe
Here's the faraday strat that i miss some key points and u can read it https://www.reddit.com/r/Division2/comments/r9dizl/iron_horse_written_guide_on_how_to_faraday/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share
If u r strictly talking about the last phase. Not actual 2-3 phase skip. I think any is fine. Since u dont actually need to have to do the rpg stuff. So u can stay at middle.
Which is easy way for healer to manage ur health
Somebody say “speedrun” ?
Why stay in middle during last phase?
Well u have no reason to spread out on last phase too
U can shoot ads from middle
Also u dont need rpg unlike phase 2 and 3
Astro no. Its only ur clan does that
Key teleport? And you clump together attracting mortars and adds
Iirc key teleport only be done on 1st phase. The 2nd phase tank pretty much near the changa also attract mortar yes but u have cover on middle + more focus healer area which is nice.
Wdym only first phase?
They key teleport is The sharpshooter headhunter that snipe changa head when he drop down right?
Tbh i never see sniper do hh on changa on last phase if they stay middle. I dont play sniper but i just feels like the hh buff isnt that long to still active after wipe phase. So most likely hard to do teleport key. (This is me just assuming) since every phase, sniper need to rebuild their hh stack.
Maybe astro. Could give us a light about this matter
If your going to headhunt on the first phase, why would you also not do it on the last phase? It's a pretty common tactic that many people do, even outside speedruns in lfgs, even if you aren't fully teleporting all keys
well he said about not ultilzing teleporting keys on last phase. I mean it's almost 'impossible' to do that.
we are debating about lastphase being spread out like normal or just stay in middle.
and he was arguing about staying in the middle means u cant teleport key. and I my argument was u cant build hh stack buff to trigger the teleport key on first changa (u can do that on 2nd changa).
my first argument on last phase on middle is not needing any rpg to shoot so why bother going spreading to door again and stay middle.
but again I just adapting to my raid mate. if they want to spread out, so be it.
anyway : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B0J16W6sylM (idk what's happening but it's funny)
I gotta do the iron horse raid on normal and am looking for some people to do it with me
You can though
then I was the wrong one then
I thought ur hh buff doesnt last that long It's always expire within the duration of morozova rain missile wipe. if the HH buff last that long, yea u can just shot changa
you just rebuild stacks off one of the reds that spawn on the right or left. in a speedrun you wipe in the back and build stacks off a sniper
Dark hours anyone else feel hearbreaker is way too op? Boomer 2nd turret down more than half his armor was downed, buddy and lucy fast too
HB set is currently way over tunned atm.
Weird ask. does anyone know if the seasonal reset, reset the raid weekly so I can run it again? >.>
More specifically I need to know if I can pull regulus if I run it again this week since it requires me to get the gold bar from the final chest
Gold bar can be gotten at any time, iirc
wait really, I thought you needed keys to open the chest. or does the gold bar kind of bypass that?
if you have 5 keys you can open the box. you always get 1 key from killing the last boss
OH. You don't get the extra keys from the run so I would have to find groups for final encounter then?
or just do the whole thing for 1 key
but thats 5 runs e.e which is rough having to LFG for them (since none of my friends raid)
@mossy raven gotta wait till next Tuesday
can I see jammer build for DH, seems I desperately need 1
4p HW, wyvern chest with kinetic momentum or glass cannon, btsu gloves, and generally survivalist and scorpio. Emp pulse and repair hive
Morning Raucey
also I noticed Heartbreaker in DH is kinda bad, I think it would be a more tankier striker in any sense for razorback. but I forgot u need to actually pulse the boss to gain stack from it and there's a lot of downtime to degen ur stack
heartbreaker is op lol, if you dont use pulse laser theres pulse drone, pulse grenade, and even normal pulse. even bluescreen could be an option if you use oxy for the free pulse. the bonus armor can keep you alive so the clusters dont hurt as much and potentially keep ur vigi up
ur tac laser will pulse buddy/lucy so u can always have max stacks when shooting them. its also op for weakpoints as you can rav stack and HB stack to kill both weakpoints as fast as D50 DCH
pulse grenade?
Wait so it hb goes well with blue screen? How does that work
depending on how many stacks u shoot the marked target u can get the effects (u can get pulse with just 1 shot). but you have to use a non-shield skill to proc it. you technically could shoot once and use any skill for pulse to proc - but its only 5s and not an effective way to pulse
how do I get iron work base materials for the regulas project?
IH bosses will drop some on each first run of the week
on normal?
Yes, only normal
shit👴
How do I get this laser everyone is using for this build?
level up technician
It’s a part of the extra weapon damage, for rifles, I believe. Max that out and you unlock it.
yo are the raid checkpoints broken? 🧐
@plush spindle sadly yes , makes speedrunning a painnnnn
ahem the dogs' heads in Lucy and Buddy counts as HSD
Afternoon Aspect and Rendy0
no u
@celest nebula or would evening be better
i was dead asleep when you post that lmao
Where you at
somewhere in south east asia
so whats this new 2x4 man raid
There's nothing like raid. But again. The one that only doing a job just you, while the other busy killing hunters or killing ads without seeing objectives.
Afternoon Octa
Anyone running a raid tonight?
Use your respective raid LFG channel for that ty
I'm down for Iron Horse... Need the Eagle for sure
eagle is from dark hours
I got my first and only ravenous from the second boss, terrible rolls tho
@steel ruin
Somebody has been cheating in ironhorse raid time ranking, 1m30s is never available for normal player👀
I dont think u should ping staff like that .
what?
Read the #rules -> 11. Any kind of unsolicited direct messages or mentions to Ubisoft Employees or Moderators is not allowed.
There are official ways of reporting players -> https://www.ubisoft.com/en-us/help/the-division-2/article/reporting-a-player-in-the-division-2/000060920
What is the meaning of this if it doesnt work
I have seen so many cheaters , certainly i reported, buy never got a reply .and the cheater is still alive
Coming in here and pinging Ubi staff won't help with it.
Report them through the official way, that's all you can do. 
I did this is all because u didnt do the job
It's not my job to do anything in the game. I'm not working for Ubisoft. And it's not Yannick's job to do anything about them either, it's not part of his job. 🙃
Like what i said , what is meaning of it if it never works
And now we are done with this topic. Especially since this is a raid discussion and not a complaining channel.
Ridicilous
anyone wanna do eagle bearer raid?
that isnt cheating
its a game mechanic bug where the time starts when theres a player recently joining the raid
its not cheating or hacking if its a bug
and if ur wondering if this is a bug and ubisoft didnt fix it, its been here since launch so im pretty sure they arent going to fix it
getting 1.5 mins in IR raid is probably something like this
- the last boss with the armored train is still alive
- a player joins right before the final mortar strikes happen
- the game timer thinks that the time started when the player joined
- raid group kills off final boss within 1.5 mins
- game timer thinks IR raid was finished in 1.5 mins due to game mechanic bug
- rinse and repeat
sry if i pinged yannick in this plz dont mute me 😦
What is the best sniper build for IH 4th boss? I saw guys playing rocket roles with sniper rifles but mine was not that effective.. :/
P sure bog standard tips sniper build can do
Role of sniper build in IH boss 4 is to kill chungas that have the keys as they spawn from train.(using headhunter stacks to break head armour and then kill with headshot) The idea is to kill them before they even jump down from train. If you just want to kill the rpg guys fast you can use any headhunter build with "white death" sniper( you can use any snipers with high damage actually)
For killing the chungas there are couple different builds you can use depending on how you want to play but main idea is, it is a "chankiller" chest headhunting build.
Mainly you will have "chankiller" chest piece and providence backpack with vigilance ("the gift" named one even better) rest can be anything with headshot dmg and weapon handling. You will be using nemesis or tac50.
You can go "punch drunk" head piece + fox prayers knees and contractors gloves or 3 piece aces set or anything you like as long as you stack up headshot and weapon handling.
Alternatively you can go for tip of spear build with the backpack. Backpack gives your tac 50 %20 more damage and you generate 2 tac50 ammo every minute so you mainly use your tac 50 to get headhunter stack before chunga spawns and use it to break his head armour and then kill it. This is one of the easier builds to use since unlike nemesis, tac50 can shoot immediately and do more damage than nemesis.
You can also go for full stability build with 2 D&H and 2 petrov pieces which will give you more than %100 stability (your reticle will never move). This one is used on speedrunning teams. Because you can kill the chunga as soon as it spawns. You don't need to wait for train doors to open up, they have a small gap in middle hence why you need %100 stability to hit the shots.
4 TotS, chainkiller and araldi vigilance
Charge headhunter -> swap to tac 50 -> break helmet -> headshot again
Thanks for exhausting answer.. I used my A&E sniper builds w Nemesis and it did not work as I intended.. 😄 I might try some of those u mentioned.. Cheers
But basicly I could use my 3p A&E, Chainkiller, Gift and Punch drunk and as long as I keep my headshots stacked I ll be fine.. 🙂
Yes pretty standard build
you only get one thing from being on the leaderboard and its bragging rights. im pretty sure you dont get free gear or weapons from it so
Hey any one wanna play iron horse i need to get my last exotic hand gun part
Post that in #lfg-raid-pc
what i need for a raid
Just a dps build
Is there any game changing differences between normal and discovery... Ran dark hours for the first time on discovery, and up until the razorback it seemed a little too easy. Was just trying to learn mechanics with other noobs. Just curious if they're both the same. Ik the loot is different.
mechanics in discovery and normal are different
Oh, like the monitors at boomer right?
Yeah. Also, on Razorback you can charge the pads 1 by 1 whereas on normal, you have to charge them all up at the same time
Damn... Any sherpas nearby then 😂 wanna learn, buggn me that I don't have Eagle bearer yet. Not the raider type after destiny- :haha:
Just watch the voice channels for open spots and the lfg chats for people grouping up. Most people in here are more than willing to help new players through. Don't wait to get invited, just jump into a RV channel where there's room.
ok would like to run a raid for fun but with new update has anything changedd tat i need to be aware of or is it still the same process?
it's still same as per I remember.
how they approach on the raid might be differ than from the last time u play the game.
Discovery is like Hard difficulty in open world. Even skill builds with no dps can easily kill ads without Capacitor or Scorpio.
Normal is in between Heroic solo and Legendary difficulty open world.
the mechanics are also drastically different in certain bosses. its a good way to learn the general raid but not good for learning how to beat the bosses since it might develop bad habits for when you do normal mode. theres usually less mechanics in each fight and the bosses are way easier to kill, especially for IH
so I did the Jammer role on DH, somehow I cannot have the cooldown on time whenever the 2nd wave of drone come in? is it because the fact I need to overcharge so it decrease the cooldown
are u using hardwired? you shouldnt have that problem
yea I use hardwired
if i dont overharge, I dont get the cooldown in time before 2nd wave drone came out
rarely the second wave come early but you will still have time. you need the hardwired backpack
well I guess so? I just take notes then ty2
Hey octa
Just make shure you have tons o skill haste for your jammer
And I believe skill damage as well
You don't need any haste, it's all about skill damage and managing the HW cooldown
shoot xbow -> jam -> drop hive -> jam when u start hearing the drones come out, you should only OC when you have at least 2-3 revive hives on CD
You shouldn't be on outside if your jamming?
@dim wharf that's why I normally don't jam ,unless I have to, and noone else wants to
jammer usually goes 4-in or 1-in with a strong dps player protecting from their out. first wave is when razerback opens, second is after 10~ seconds (listen to the drones come out), third wave is when breaking razorback takes too long. 4th wave rarely comes out but you could hear it. you could also just sit right under razorback and avoid mortars so you can only focus on drones
Because they don't know what they are talking about
where did it start from tho
idk but thats dumb lol, you can stack strikers or HB on razorback
idk, ive never even heard someone say that
i did hear people say
'please don't stack striker on razorback'
Hey all - returning player I’m looking for help in getting the eagle bearer.. any suggestions?
Thaaanks
Does it only drop in dark hour raid? And is there matchmaking for it?
yes
and no there isn't matchmaking for normal difficulty
Message me on Xbox tomorrow. Gt same
Thanks dude, will do
@waxen rain razorback vs ravenous or regulos
what the fk
Hello can someone pls help me raid operation dark hours?
if you are looking to play it
go to #lfg-raid-pc , see who is looking for players and join them
It’s probably the same reason some people tell others not to shoot the bullet or mortars with a normal gun on Boss 4 of IH. They think it bugs out the raid, is a waste of time when you can be shooting ads instead, or something along these lines.
which to be clear, all of that is not true
thought so
thats what i believed too
but i hey, let's ask maybe there's actually a way to bug it
is iron horse easy to explain? I havent done it yet and I cant find a video for its explaination
There's a lot of different roles and mechanics, but being walked through your first time you'll generally just be expected to have a dps build and mostly bring on "cover ads from this spawn" kind of roles while you learn the basics
so i just spawn camp ads mostly because its my first time? is there like rotation between roles ill have to do? Im mainly familiar with Destiny raids and thats what you do sometimes so im just curious
Generally roles will be assigned by the group as you get to each boss based off what people want to do, experience with each role, filling in what's needed, etc.
just make sure to let people know that ur new or not sure what to do lol, if you take a certain spot people may think you have it covered
Are the keys/caches still once a week only? The raid menu in game seems kinda bugged, but I also wasn't sure if they removed those restrictions yet or not
Yes it's once a week per character
Raid menu bugged on me yesterday as well, it reset my raid progression (was on Williams) even though I had done the previous bosses the day before. Showed 0/4 bosses looted but the first 3 keys were already looted when I got to them. All on the same character ofc
ppl will help u if u admit urself is new and knew nothing
We just had that happen on ODH when our group went back to finish RB after getting there the yesterday…showed 0/4 bosses but the pilot at the front showed next boss as RB. But wouldn’t transport us there…
Hey guys iam new to div 2 and i need to join a raid team for the Eagle Bearer because i dont have a team if anyone can help it would be nice 😄
thank you iam gonna copy paste it xd
Hey Isabel
when can i find elites true son fast?
Guys does the eagle bearer drop if i complete the raid five times ?everywhere say it does but iam not sure
Doesn't matter how many times you do it. EB has a chance to drop from the DH chest after you finish the raid. You might get it on first time you might get it on thousanth
Level 4 control points give a lot. Lincoln Memorial on heroic
anyone have a EB they want to share?
Game doesn't really work like that, items can only be shared if obtained while in the same group together.
How does sharing work? I never do because I am a greedy boi but I'm curious
Once gained while in the same group, a countdown timer appears (IIRC about 1 hour) and within that time, you can share with anyone who was in the group while you obtained it.
IIRC the timer is paused when you're offline, but only 90% sure on that part.
Do they permanently get it?
Oh cool thanks I never knew that
I should share more
Anyways good morning afternoon or night
Just remember if put any mod on it you can no longer share it
So I have never done a raid in this game, how long do they usually take to complete?
DH 15min, IH 45-60min
Thank you.
They can be done that quick, or even quicker, but you should expect/prepare for it to take longer than that. Generally DH lfgs will take roughly 30-60 minutes, IH lfgs will take roughly an hour to an hour and a half. It can take longer if the group is inexperienced.
Has the weekly reset been?
It says -20minutes for me and keeps going more minus
it's not until tomorrow morning
Afternoon kettle
hey saph
Anyone wants to do the raid
Ask in #lfg-raid-console
Ok
how many times can you do the raid and get loot? once a week?
yes once a week. per raid.
but a work around, the final boss will give you a key no matter what. so complete any raid 5 times and you can open the chest whether or not you have already opened it that week
it takes 5 keys to open a chest.^
thanks!!
Good evening, what are the best weapons you can get in Washington
@obsidian nexus #td2-general-chat
Legally, very similar to California as of late
@vale quiver #off-topic-discussions
Sarcasm really doesn't need a channel
Its a one time joke
I know just trying to keep mods from yelling
Okay let's pretend to discuss raids
How many players are needed for one anyway?
8 unless your a speed run clan then 4
Oh cool
Yeah I thought it was a lot more
If you can't tell I've never been able to do a raid
#lfg-raid-ps4
Try here
Just make shure you have a strong dps build and let them know your new
Swing and a miss, it's actually #lfg-raid-console
There is no #lfg-raid-ps4/xbox, to be clear.
4x a week if u have 4 characters
Bout time xd
How does it go faster with 4 instead of 8?
the question was 'how many do you need' - a speedrun clan would have the necessary knowledge and skills to manage with 4, even if it is much slower than they'd manage with 8
In terms of "need", 3 people is all that is required to clear the whole Iron Horse raid from start to end.
no youl NEED 8 people to complete the raid ,that know what there doing
@fluid pier i don't see how 3 can do it, 5 yes but not 3
2 is enough to kill all bosses(with excruciating pain), 3 is just needed for some mechanics but yes its "doable". But if we are talking about normal groups missing 1 or 2 can be manageable.
So 3 people can do william with no issues?
Lunar did it with astro i believe
No, you only "need" 3 people that know what they're doing to complete the raid. That is the bare minimum. Obviously not suggested as it makes things much more difficult, but it's all that is necessary.
I mean we are talking about challenge of challenges ofc not something normal people can do
3 can clear the raid. 2 people is all that is necessary to clear all 4 of the main boss encounters. The only part of the raid that requires greater than 2 people to do is heat chamber since you need 3 people to hit all 3 consoles at the same time. If it weren't for that one problem in the heat chamber, you can actually clear the whole Iron Horse raid with just 2 people. Again, definitely not suggested but if we're talking about the bare minimum, then 3 is all that is necessary to run Iron Horse from beginning to end.
@shell horizon maybe you want to look at this here. The two of them ( @fluid pier and @rigid onyx ) cleared every single boss on normal as a duo. You can even do sniper alley cogs with 2 people using an interaction with EMP sticky. Literally the only thing you cannot do with 2 people is heatchamber consoles. If you want to look at the rest of their videos I'm happy to provide them via DM 🙂

I'll check it later
@kindred dome You can stop posting that. No need to drag it into this server.
Mods word is law here please respect each other.
@tribal tundra You're looking for #lfg-raid-console
How do i find that? Sorry new to discord im having a hard time navigating through it.
click the blue thing, it'll take you to the LFG chat so you can look for groups
hey guys got a question
@weary pumice Fire away.
and weve got an answer
how many players in group can do a raid?
havent tried one yet
Raids are 8 players
why wont the box at the end of iron horse open? much less give me a prompt to open it? i have 14 keys
15keys
Afternoon Aspect,Isabel,Rivens
For some people it's kinda buggy. Travelling to the White House and back into the raid usually fixes it
are the parts for regulus a guaranteed drop?
Yes, the fifth is from the chest at the end
so i need clear the raid twice and the difficulty does not matter?
All raid related stuff you can earn is on normal difficulty. Discovery difficulty is only for learning the map but it is a waste of time as raid mechanics change with difficulty. Don't bother with discovery.
When you finish normal IH raid you will get 2 projects which requires you to donate stuff, once you do that you will get 2 more projects. Once you finish those you will get a final project which requires 5 regulus parts. When you have this project each raid boss + final chest will drop a regulus part.(Only when the raid is fresh for you)
what does "raid is fresh for you" mean?
Every Tuesday raids reset. That is what i mean by raid being fresh. There are 4 key caches in both raids. You can only open them once a week. They have the 4 of the 5 keys you need to open the chest at the end(5th key is from final boss). They also have materials required to craft some gear sets.
Bosses also drop raid specific loot only once a week(any extra times you do the raid you get normal loot). But these loot are already obtainable in the open world(They used to be raid specific)
So usually it takes 3 fresh raids to craft the regulus. 1st to get the projects, 2nd to get enough "ironworks base materials" which you donate for the projects. You can only those from raid caches. And 3rd one to get regulus parts for the final project. (one from each boss + one from final chest)
so 3 weeks, 1 raid per week?
or i may get unlucky with loot and need to run some more times for ironwork stuff?
You get materials on first week too, it is just not enough for the projects. That is why you need the 2nd fresh raid but that is more than enough.
You can do raid as much as you want btw. Final bosses always drop key so if you do the raid 5 times you can open the end chest again to get a chance to get Eagle Bearer from DH raid or Ravenous from IH raid. Regulus is only from the project
10 Ironwork materials always drop from each key caches. It is a set amount so no luck involved
thank you very much @crude onyx . i appreciated the knowledge and time
So what's the difference between discovery and normal difficulty for raids?
Discovery has simpler mechanics, easier enemies, and no Raid-locked Loot.
That includes Exotics and Blueprints for the Gearsets.
So if I want exotics I have to play by myself?
Raids are genreally 8-player events, just hop on down to #lfg-raid-pc and let them know you're new.
As long as you have a decent Red DPS crit build and listen to the Raid Leader, you'll do fine.
Is anyone having horrible problems with Lucy tonight it seems like she’s way faster and stronger and shoots way more
Like I don’t know If there’s anything going on it just seems like a new boss with new things
If your talking the dogs the answer is sometimes. Every so often they'll decide to just clean the floor and kill everone,which in turn makes ever one mad and bring out all the big and nasty builds killing them in ugly swift fashion.
does the eagle bearer only drop on the raid DH normal difficulty? or it can be drop on discovery difficulty
@radiant cargo Yep, only Normal.
Discovery can't drop any of the "Raid Locked" items.
thanks Riven, I'm try to matchmake but no one play normal anymore lol
Normal can't matchmake, you're best off heading on over to #lfg-raid-pc to find a team.
Let them know you're new, listen to the Raid Leader, and have a decent Red DPS crit build, you'll do fine.
Felt the same to me.
Found the problem my apologies everyone have a good day
What was the problem?
Yo peeps how you all doing. Quick question does this discord group has a lfg for raids on xbox that are active?
I think so
#lfg-raid-console is what you're looking for.
@muted horizon If you have an issue with a player ingame, please report them via Ubi-Support.
There's no need to post it in here, naming and shaming is not allowed.
If you have evidence of said issue, action can be taken much more swiftly.
Hey Rivens
I’ve had serious problems today twice with razors audio glitches and it’s becoming a unplayable experience I tried too teach some ftc for my clan and this happens
Forever chunga siren?
Yes sorry for late response we tried for a while and got it every time we failed and we called it because it took too long too load back and 4th
I can not get the key in ironhorse the box are allready open is there anything o can do to fix this
You can only get keys from the boxes once per week and per character. After that, only the boss will drop a key on each run until the next reset.
Yea I played it sat and Wednesday but the key box are still open can not finish the project for the regulus
Did you open them on Wednesday?
Were you able to open them before, though?
Tried travelling to the BOO and back into the raid? I know that for some people the final chest is bugged like that and travelling back and forth actually fixes it
Ok thank for all the info I will try that next
yo floor 10 enthusiast
yes
Is a striker-chameleon build viable for raids?
I would say yes but it depends how you have build it and how the rest of the group is
I want to do the raids (first timer for both), but I'm not sure of my builds. Would a safer bet be to go with an empress skill build?
same i just donno where to get started like how do i find a team willing to put up with my shit if i fail
No, if you're doing a raid for the first time, you want a pure DPS build like 3pc Providence, Contractor's Gloves, Fox's Prayers and one piece Grupo or Ceska, depending on whether you lack CHC or CHD. Alternatively, a Coyote's Mask also works. Aim for roughly 50% crit chance and 150%ish crit damage, so that you can actually carry your own weight in the raids and manage to kill stuff without help.
Alright, I think I might have some pieces but yeah. Thanks for the guidance!
@broken bobcat all the dps build pieces are farmable, use summit or countdown
anyone need +1 dps in raid ( iron horse)
how can i get the DH exclusive gear blueprints? i have all individidual pieces in my inventory/stash but somehow not the blueprints. how can that be? these are the ones missing for me:
https://imgur.com/a/5p7jAYw
any help would be appreciated. these are among the last blueprints missing for me -.-
I got the expansion and interested in a raid can someone help me?
blueprints are drops too
@oblique nicheyou just have to keep doing the raid over and over just do it once a week
or with multiple characters
oh, didn't know that. thanks. drop chance is once every week or can i repeat the raid multiple times during a week with each playthrough potentially dropping the blueprints?
Just once a week
just create an alt char...transfer your gear to him...and play raid
Do the blueprints drop from raid bosses or only from the chest at the end
Saph, you realize that @oblique niche was asking about the blueprints, right?
To answer the question: blueprints only drop from the bosses on the first run of the week
Where can I find raid group for Dv 2
@hot jolt correct you do get a set of blueprints from dh
Oh and hey and hey kettle
I got my tips and aces from dh
whats the chance of eagle bearer dropping from the chest at the end??
About 10%, I believe
Best run with experienced raiders on their first run of the week, so you'll have a better chance of them dropping one for you. Although expertise now gives them a reason to hang onto it themselves
What's the best way to get a group for your first raid? Ive been looking at some things for dark hours so I at least know what to do
Edit: I also have a build setup for it to 👍
hop on to you #lfg-raid-xbox
If I completed IH already this week but only got 32 ironwork base materials will I be able to get the other 8 before reset?
I’d rather not have to wait another week to complete my project for the pistol
I didn’t open the chest at the end either so will that still be available if I run it again and if I have 4/5 keys needed can I still get another key?
Or all this has to wait until reset?
You can get another key if you only got 4 this week. The 8 materials you'll have to wait till next reset for. They might drop from last chest too? Not sure if it's only bosses. Another solution is to raid again on another character if you have one.
No I don’t have another character rn
As for that 5th key it'll have to be the one you specifically missed, so one of the key spots or maybe the one from Morzova you forgot to pick up
I missed the one with the snipers
Ahhh
