been using a cool TP skill build with overwatch , hits hard and gives multiple team buffs, but what has been making me scratch my head is the explosion damage from a fuly debuffed enemy , it always feels underwhelming , no matter if you kill a red or a fully armoured elite.

i went in the test range and there it doesnt matter what you kill , the damage of the explosion is always the same, it just changes depending if the target of said explosion has armour or not.

i will try to run more tests with actual gameplay and not just the range but im curious to know if any of you guys has tested this more in detail and has something to add.

ohhh , just on a side note , the 5 meters explosion radius is already small as it is ,on top of that having the NPC´s run away from each other as soon as they have the full flag as an AI standard practise only helps make this explosion even more irrelevant.

I love experimenting with different builds, a PVE one I really enjoy is my Badger Tuff build, it's a tanky build with lots of armor regen but still does plenty of damage. No trouble doing Heroic missions solo, the Safety Distance SMG shoots with laser precision. I'm practically un-killable.

How do you get Grupo Sombra Blueprint. Does this blueprint exist?

I am thinking about getting back into the Division 2 i´ve played when it launched on Xbox but then had to stop due to professional matters, can anyone tell me if the game is worth getting back into or as the player base nearly gone and the devs just given up on the game as i´ve seen on reddit and Youtube? I need honest answer here to know if i should invest in the game or not. Thanks

The game is old so let us farm SHD points already.
Just like Dtech in Division 1.

Named Boss drop (1-5 SHD points)
Hard: 1 SHD point
Challenge: 2 SHD points
Heroic: 3 SHD points
Legendary: 5 SHD points

Rogue Agents (1 SHD point per Agent)
Hunters (2 SHD points per Hunter)

Deconstructing (1 SHD point)
Exotic item: 100% chance
Named item: 80% chance
Gearset item: 50% chance
Normal item: 10% chance

Cache's (1-20 SHD points)
Exotic: 20 SHD points
Named: 10 SHD points
Dz/conflict: 5 SHD points
Field: 1-5 SHD points

as the title says above - theres no way that apistol should equate or deal more damage than an smg/AR/shotty and to hide behind a shield while doing it is just the lamest.

Hi,

I was thinking about the possibility of having ai teammates to not only help the solo players, but also add some new ways of playing the game.

In my opinion, such a feature like this would be good for the replayability of the game. Even a pre-designed team of ai followers could be nice. For example, think about exploring the map with Agent Kelso. Why not.

Feel free to write about ai teammates, replayability, or whatever you desire on this thread.

I have just launched "the Division 2" but I was really disappointed to notice that the awesome intro music was gone.
Instead, you just have the initial strings looping over and over...
No more build up and great synth theme...
Sad...
Instead of getting you excited to play, it just makes you want to shut down the game and go to sleep.
It doesn't make sense to me.
Is there a reason why the music is gone? (copyright? technical issue? [censored] off players?)
How can we get it back?

Hello. What the hell is with people joining me while I am idle or sorting my inventory in BOO's private area? I keep forgetting to change my group privacy after I leave a mission. But what darned matchmaking makes people join me when I should be left alone?

Hello,

those exclamation marks for different raid commendations won't disappear. I have tried to remove them about three times.
The glitch persists for about a week. Anyone else with the same problem?

Let’s say you could have Kelso or a totally custom agent of your choice accompany your character, would you use that option?

I definitely would. I think it would add a lot to solo play.

So I have an MPX I am trying to optimize. Running landmarks in the DZ you level up and get lots of mats, but the one thing you don't get is the faction assessments. It seems SMGs are the domain of Hyenas, so I am always short of these - by a lot.

I know you can craft them, but it uses a crazy amount of mats to do so. Is there a better way to farm these?
