At the recalibration station it looks like I can build up a library of talents or things to add to weapons. Should I be trying to use gear to fill that out or just keep deconstructing everything? I’m lvl 29 for what that’s worth.

So, I played through the College missions but apparently you are supposed to be able to play through missions set in a zoo and on Coney Island. Do I need to complete some plot related missions or hit world tier 5 in order to access this?

There are two separate libraries: 1-30, 31-40. So if you have the expansion and don’t plan to have any lvl 30 alts, you can ignore that until you get into WONY.

the 1-30 and 31-40 libraries are completely separate. so no, unless you plan to never buy the expansion, beaten.

So a big part of my LMG build was the Dodge City Holster which reloads all your guns’s ammo when you switch to a pistol. They took that away. The heathens.

Are god rolls relative to that specific piece of gear, or that category? For example (using a made up number) I have a mask with 9%CHC and it shows it's the max roll. Is that the max roll for that type of mask, or for masks in general?

Thought I would start with Javier, but mission giver at church (lady in front of map) doesn't activate.
Tried relogging and coming back when there weren't 10 dudes trying to activate here but still nothing.

Though I have seen others go up to her and then disappear.

The other thing to do is fast traveling from there (and back). That seems to be working for some people to trigger the NPC.

All brands now have the same number of attributes on each type of gear piece (which was a big determining factor on max rolls with the previous allocation system). The allocation system is now gone so any max roll you find on a certain slot should be the max across all brands for that slot. So to answer your question, for a mask at the level you're looking at, 9% CHC is the max you can get on any mask. Whether it's the max at level 40 or not is another question.

Yeah, the Episode 1-3 content requires you to beat the Tidal Basin stronghold to access. Keep doing the story and going through the world tiers and it’ll show up.

I kinda want to see an open world game set in San Diego even though I know we're not interesting or important enough to do so. It was pretty fun messing around in Chicago and SF in Watch_Dogs 1 and 2 since I know those cities pretty well, and my hometown would be cool too. But that's just me.

NY is done to death, I don't want to see it again. What about Toyko? I don't remember if anyone's made a large-scale open world game set there. Yakuza is the closest but it's always just one neighborhood (which isn't a bad thing, just not the same thing).

NYC is so cool looking and the environments are so extreme it’s rad. Just torn up metal and fires and weird red fog hell yeah.

Liking the gear changes so far. So much easier to pick a thing to wear.

Sadly lost my 2FA for discord so rip that account. But I just figured I’d download the PS4 version and get warlords for that (well and pc) so once I setup a new discord I can play PS4 (and some pc) with goons again. Missed doing it a lot. So hopefully I’ll be able to get back in the Goon clans.

Really smart of Ubi to make it $3 and then free for a weekend. Honestly if PSN had allowed me to make gift purchases I was giving the base game to a bunch of people at my office. Honestly got me back into the game...well besides some futzing around with GeForce Now and Shadow.

As a new player who's just about to hit 30, will I have to do the world tier stuff before playing the expansion? Or can I jump right in from 30?

If you get warlords you can boost your character....and I think any you create in the future.

Honestly the boost option is why I got it for the PS4 in the first place.

Ok, got it. Can I still go back and play the endgame DC content (and will there be any reason to)? It always annoyed me that there was a bunch of content in Destiny 1 and 2 I would never get to play at the correct level because I jumped in a few expansions down the road (although I think they fixed that in D2 by removing levels when it went F2P, correct?).

if you care about the main game campaign don't use the boost, it will autocomplete it (the main missions will be replayable, side missions aren't)

Pleasant surprise to find out I could do this today, when I have a day off.

Also man, NYC just isn't the same without the snow. That was like half of the appeal. They really need to just say "oops its winter now" and have a blizzard in DC.

So as someone new to the game and just hit 30 last weekend. Is the Kenly College stuff worth doing? Will the item you get from it level up if I purchase WONY?

Also the protecting the server thing in the library is hard AF. Is the rest of the stuff that hard too? I did the IED investigation and that was much easier but haven't tried anything else.

It's gone now but a Division like game in the Kowloon Walled City would have been amazing.
