They'll be another new one later this month, Onslaught. Date is TBA. June gives us patch 1.8.1, which has two more legendary missions and 'shields.' Shields are an achievement system that will unlock poo poo in Division 2. This is why I think Division 2 is closer than we think and we may get it this year. They're also repeating the Outbreak GE in June. July: Assault GE August: Strike GE September: Ambush GE. That's as far as the roadmap goes, so no idea if Blackout or Onslaught will be repeated. It's also another reason I think we'll see D2 this year.

Me and my friend came back to the game a couple weeks ago after being away since like version 1.2 and we both were able to get a set of 6-piece strikers, which is really awesome and the game is fun again... Can we duo legendary missions? We tried Armhurst apartments and died right at the start. Do we just need practice or are they not meant for duos? Any tips for running them?

The enemy AI in legendary missions takes some getting used to, but once you do they aren't bad. One of you should run with a flashbang or flame turret to help CC enemies, especially the shotgunners as they are loving vicious if they get the drop on you. Two people is fine for most missions. It actually can make missions easier as the enemies take less damage than if you had a 4 man group. You have some one bail your rear end out if you screw something out. Someone is there to draw fire or otherwise distract enemies.

Can we duo legendary missions? We tried Armhurst apartments and died right at the start. Do we just need practice or are they not meant for duos? The start of Amherst is easily the hardest part. I solo it by not entering the courtyard at all and just hiding behind the side of the main gate though I don't know if there's room for 2. Note that you don't want to stick to cover if its high cover, just strafe in and out or edge around corners until you can just see the enemy you want to shoot. If you have a height advantage on NPCs you don't want to take cover at the edge either, just slowly move forward to peek over the edge. Do NOT advance into any area until its mostly cleared out and the last couple of guys aren't coming out and even then make sure you can get back to some good cover because Legendaries love to spawn a bunch of shotgunners, sometimes even behind you - this happens in basically every area except the final fight in Amherst. Basically just take it slow and try to make sure you're exposing yourself to as few enemies as possible at any given time. Edit: And this basically applies to all the Legendary missions. I'm sure there's someone out there who can rock them solo much quicker and better than I can but being a coward works too. Kibayasu fucked around with this message at 20:35 on May 7, 2018 |

I just climbed up the crashed truck next to the entrance and shoot down from the second story at the start of Amherst and it seemed to work really well. My damage as a frontline build is bad so the special dude at the end who drops the exotic is especially bulley-spongy- I mean he can't hurt me, but still.

The gold version of this is $32 on PSN right now. Does the season pass add a good amount of content that 1. can be played solo and 2. is not just deathmatch? I only just started playing and I'm at level 23, once you hit 30 is it just a grind for better gear?

Survival is always with others and even in the PvE mode, you're 'competing' for resources. Don't think you can ever play that one alone, technically. That aside Last Stand is the only direct PvP one.

Survival is super fun. If you're enjoying the basic gameplay definitely get it. Just expect to devote about an hour to it at a sitting unless/until you get really good at it and start speedrunning it. It's essentially the game's Battle Royal mode, created before BRs were cool. Underground gives you a different way to get gear to mix things up a bit, so it's definitely nice to have. It's basically D3's Rifts.

I only just started playing and I'm at level 23, once you hit 30 is it just a grind for better gear? Once you hit 30 it basically is just a search for better gear (and PVP but I assume you aren't interested in that) but through more challenging and varied missions. Underground and Survival can both be played solo. UG is basically short dungeons of player-set difficulty/modifiers to play through you can start whenever. Survival is a battle royale mode (with a timer and "cold" mechanic instead of a ever-shrinking play area) that you queue for - I can't say for sure that a game will start if only 1 person is in the queue but I've had games start when there were only 3 or 4 people in it so maybe? Last Stand is a PVP Domination mode. No one really plays it any more and unlike Survival a game won't start unless there's 2 teams of 8 people so it's not good chances. Owning Last Stand gets you access to an incursion though.

I hit 30 a few days ago and am now at World Tier 5, but had a question about high level blueprints. Namely, where do I get them and how do I know which ones are actually useful?

Gilg posted:I hit 30 a few days ago and am now at World Tier 5, but had a question about high level blueprints. Namely, where do I get them and how do I know which ones are actually useful? The blueprint vendor in the Terminal resets every Friday along with all the other vendors. He is in the back left booth on the way towards the underground. Be aware of the gear score of the blueprints because just like world tiers each blueprint has a corresponding gear score. You cannot optimize a GS 220 item past its world tier range. For example you can craft an ACR with a GS of 230 but it will cap out at 255ish because going to 256 would be the bottom of world tier 5 gear scores. The most sought after blueprints will be weapons and obvious ones (to the majority of us anyway) like the Lightweight M4, Navy MP5 N, and MG5. There are blueprints for armor pieces that favor particular main stats like 'Stamina Vest' or 'Electronics Mask' but these blueprints are not essential unless you're running a high-end/exotic build. Most people are using classified sets at this point.

Reminder: There is a second BP vendor in the West Side Piers safehouse who has a wholly separate inventory of his own. As to what to get, I personally buy any of the weapon mod BPs that appear at max level. Being able to craft all your own weapon mods is more convenient than having to rely on the weekly RNG resets having what you want and with the stats you want. It helps that these BPs are pretty cheap (300 birdcoins IIRC ? I have so many of them I rarely see any in the vendor list). Speaking of the list, the system is wierd in that anything you have already just not appear in the list at all.

Curious if anyone here was into the whole Rogue 29 Club thing. https://twitter.com/TheDivisionTDT It was started by those guys. Basically you level a character to 29, then go into the DZ and stay there forever. No more Striker/Pred/Nomad, just "pure" PVP. It's catching on and I think I'm going to do it with my 4th character on PS4.

Sounds interesting, a non-troll version of level 14 rogue-ing. I doubt I'd enjoy PVP that much regardless but I would agree that the amount of powerful stuff at level 30 broke it even more. I've still got a level 14 character I don't do anything with so maybe that'll be something to see, if it exists on PC.

So I've had this since launch and I've got a shitload of gear in my stash from playing off and on over the years, is there anything in particular I should be keeping? I tend to horde everything if its yellow or green but I really have no idea what's good. It's all gold weapons 260-285, set gear 260-275 and gold level 30 weapon mods. I'd take some screenshots but since you can only put 5 loving things on the screen at once I'm not doing that.

I've never been able to have the patience for it. My entire thing in Survival is speed into the DZ, it's really hard to not do that.

But the West Coast is fine, the quarantine worked. If you had a new worse version of the virus, you ain't dropping it in Ground Zero p2. You going to where the first virus didn't work. And you ain't dropping it in Montana or Idaho. So it should be Seattle, San Fran, or LA I imagine.
