Well one way is every 5th SHD level you get an option to get free crafting mats of your choice. Other than that just run around and open up poo poo.

That fifth SHD level gets me 10 of them. I need hundreds, nay, thousands. It's the only material I'm short on as I dismantled so much though the base game run.

Pretty sure it’s in the Hyena and Black Tusk drop tables but you can check in the resources tab, each faction drops particular resources on kills.

e: and the black crafting material cases have electronics in them

Any NA clans with space at the moment? I'm fairly casual (lol, just don't look at my playtime) and don't raid. I want access to that clan vendor and non-randos to team up with for bounties and DZ'ing.

Heck, if Hotdogs has a space it'd be nice for some Destiny 2/Div2 clan synergy.

Get the discovery buff from resupplying a control point then run through the East Mall zone and pick up everything you see. There are a lot of electronics boxes throughout there so taking 10-15 minutes whenever you play to go gather some is a good idea. Also be sure to break down unwanted gear set pieces because they give 4 of each blue crafting mat.

There are some hidden missions around DC, marked with a blue or purple icon, i forget.
When in that area you have to find the entrance.
They are just extra side missions really.
Though they do have items to find, nothing too exciting though.
But always nice to have extra free content.

That’s the year 1 pass. The new “season passes” are going to be Fortnite battle passes and that’s what they’re talking about.

Its the first "Season" kind of like a battlepass. Gain XP and complete the new Rogue missions to gain levels along the season granting gear sets, named items, cosmetics, caches, the works. Each Rank in the season has a different reward.

Yeah unfortunately this goes pretty much for all games these days. You either no life the release and exploit all the unfinished buggy poo poo people find, or else take months doing it the right way when they nerf all the exploits out within the first few weeks, which essentially is where it puts all us working stiffs.. So lets see, we had DZ that was dropping Mythic+ gear, we had an LMG that was doing 2x dmg making all the DZ trivial in a 4 man, way more trivial than any mythic mission or stronghold (still have not found that loving thing) we had firing range exploit, we had a vendor selling poo poo he was not supposed to exploit... Good luck catchign up to any of those that played and played hard the first week.

More of a "get free stuff for playing" Theres a few named weapons and skins but nothing that you'd miss out on forever. IIRC they said the named weapons enter the game WITH the season, so you just may lose out on a few skins?

There is a section with 3 underground entrances right near the "D-Railed" control point. There is a room in it that has what looks like a leaking gas pipe that keeps catching on fire blocking it. Does anyone know how to make it stop? I looked around that section for a valve or a yellow box or something, but couldn't find anything. I even went above ground but I didn't see anything there either.

If thats the one i'm thinking of, you should be able to walk right in.
As long as there are no enemies about to hinder your regen, you should be fine.



So a 45 min run today nets me 4 nightwatchers I don't really need.
Thanks loot table.

e: And 4 Pointman armors also, it seems.

Can you reassign the points from SHD levels? I don't see the option but since they're basically Paragon levels from Diablo I kinda figured you'd be able to.

Doesn't look like it. The bulk of it all having caps means you eventually fill it all up so a respec (at that point) is unnecessary so why have it at all!

Also the SHD point that gets to go to a pittance of resources is incredibly loving dumb.

Hulk Krogan
Mar 25, 2005



Well in Diablo you can put all your defensive points into armor if it suits your build, then change it to say, life regen when you want to run a different setup that would benefit more from that start. If you can't do that then you kind of have to commit to a setup to really get much benefit from them, at least until you've maxed everything out.

I'm not quite 40 yet (just got to 38 from the Dragov mission for the sticky bomb), but I've got a few little complaints. They're probably mostly just annoying to me, personally. First, why does the button to mark a spot on the map also switch tabs on the map? And why is map navigation seemingly the one category that they don't let you rebind anything on? Hold-to-activate is still annoying, especially when it completes the action before the bar even fills - why not just make the action a single click? Or, here's a novel idea: if the key you want to use for an action is already being used for something else, then USE. OTHER. KEYS. Those are mostly all release-day complaints from the first game, though. As for a new one: why does the hive (haven't tried other skills yet) not give back half the charges if you cancel it early anymore? Finally, I'm torn between annoyance and respect for the top-tier troll: why did they add "pet the dog!" for New York, give an entire animal shelter safehouse (full of good dogs sitting there waiting for pets), and then not let you interact in any way with any of them?

I'm still enjoying the game, despite those annoyances. New York feels almost like it did in the first game, and very different from DC, which is good. With some of the Keener audiologs (the "Mark and Sarah" ones mostly), you'd think they were trying to reform him into being something other than an unrepentant sociopath bastard, but that's crazy talk.

My guess? Consoles. You have limited key real estate on a controller, and they probably want the various key bindings to be a 1:1 translation (i.e. not having a bunch of extra keys on PC that the others don't have).

Not the ones in the animal shelter, but fair point. Killing them is a form of interaction.
