If by cosmetics you mean keys that get me like 90% duplicates when I only have 40/100 of a set, yeah lol They really need to just make keys give you something new each time until you have all 100 in the current rotation. At least they added the currency that you can buy some of the stuff with when you get tons of duplicates.

So, uh, how am I supposed to kill Saturn if all the NYC control points are allied? Like, they’re yellow diamonds on the map, but I can fast travel and they’re controlled by friendlies. Welp.

Tesla Was Robbed posted:They pulled that option out. You can reset all control points to hostile without needing to change difficulties. This is true but changing world difficulties also still resets everything. Also if, say, you want DC to stay friendly and only reset NYC, doing the deed in the NYC map will leave DC control points alone and vice versa.

vyst posted:Just started new York, is there any reason i need to keep my level 30 yellows/mods once i hit 40? Or should i just trash them Gear items and weapons should be trashed. While you're levelling it may be useful to keep old items but the base weapon damage and gear armor scale up by large amounts that a mediocre roll at level 34 or level 35 should be outpacing an excellent level 30 roll. Mods don't scale as much from level 30 to 40. A really well rolled level 30 mod is about 80% quality of a level 40 mod. If you need to fill the gaps in your build, level 30 mods work until you get an upgrade at level 40.

Or should i just trash them You’ll eventually find better versions but offensive/defensive/utility/skill mods all have a fairly limited pool of attributes now so you might as well keep something until you find another with a better number. You’ll only ever be able to mount 3 armor mods at once so there’s no reason to keep more than 3 of each attribute. Skill mods have no requirements so you should only keep the highest value one for the mod slot.

keep your exotics since you can upgrade them if you have any

Clarification needed. Crit mods attached to your weapons don’t appear to contribute to the stats on the sheet, so am I correct in thinking if my stat tab says I have (for example) 55% crit chance, I only need one 5% mod on a weapon to max the stat? The rest can be CHD?

# ? May 25, 2020 16:50 |

They should show up on that stat screen. You might be looking at the wrong weapon. If you’re on PC you hold G to switch which weapons’ stats are being displayed. It cycles through slot 1/slot2/pistol/special.

I solo plenty of everything except DZ because lol PVP and Legendary missions because lol Legendary. Don’t care what they say about scaling Legendary is a group thing only.

I remember in Div 1 people kept proudly talking about their hour+ solo clears of legendary napalm and I'm just like what is wrong with you I have yet to see a reason to change that position. Sure, they might find that a fun and good challenge, but I sure can't imagine doing it.

Soloing felt really annoying between the release of WoNY and this last title update/patch. Sort of having fun again

Legendary missions in Div 1, at least near the end, guaranteed an exotic drop, two if you did them flawlessly and killed the hunter, so there was a good reason to try and do them even solo. But in Div2 at the moment you get basically the same loot but at a slower pace because everything’s harder with a small chance for a unique exotic.

# ? May 25, 2020 20:59 |

yeah, in TU10 they will tune up legendary drops and give a guaranteed weekly exotic cache from legendary clears. So it's a step in the right direction

Sure, but if you matchmake you could grind through all seven or however many legendaries in the time it took a solo player to do like, two. You're right that there were guaranteed exotic drops late in the game's lifespan, but these kind of posts predated that so it only explains half of them

alphabettitouretti posted:Will switching world difficulty reset my manhunt progress? Nope. This was patched out I think the same time they added in control point resets. You can freely change difficulty and it no longer wipes your manhunt progress. It also means you can group up with your friends regardless of their difficulty and no longer take penalties/lose manhunt progress. Why it was even a thing is

I did my fair share of soloing with my Tactician set in div1. It was more of a "let's see if I have enough patience" than really something actually efficient. There's a guy that has been soloing legendary stuff with a heavily tweaked strikers build in div1 taking less time than a decent 4 man group. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RNVA3lQRTrc This is a week old video and is just insane how fast he kills.

Difficulty does seem about right for a solo player now in my opinion - I'm getting challenged without getting frustrated constantly by cheap bullshit so that's a plus. I liked the final mission in the manhunt a lot and how they were able to re-purpose a mission but still make it feel different in ways. Hopefully future manhunt bosses will be more like that and less like "here's a generic bounty enemy with a different name, go kill them"

Have they said anything about gear/skill mods? Making them like weapon mods in that you don't need to store them? Or making the sorting better? It's a pain in the rear end to go through them, especially the skills that have a lot of different types of mods.

Considering that they considered skill mods were so superfluous that they left the spec tree mods completely broken for weeks I think they are at the bottom of whatever priority list exists.

Hunter fights were really funny in Div 1 on Legendary. The ballistic shield had a zillion HP with a full set of confidential frontline, to the point I could facetank basically a platoon of elites even without healing. Hunter melee took off something like 1/8th of my shield's HP every time he hit it, which would kill any regular player 10 times over because hunters know the Hokuto Shinken apparently.

It's buried in the comments. It's both to skip the hunter (only shows if you don't wipe before the last encounter) and to reset the enemies bellow. All my "speedruns" were for farming purposes so we went for the hunter that with the 4 player scaling takes so loving long to kill even with 3 strong DPS builds.

This event was not well thought through when it comes to the open world. It is becoming an all too common occurrence that the guardian is some guy that just fucks off behind some box somewhere while a now invincible rusher enemy charges at me and I can’t do anything about it. It works better in missions since there’s less space but you still get times where the guardian will put themselves in a position that is impossible to get to without trying to get past more than a few invincible enemies.
