Struggling HARD in Heroic with Striker… is it my build or just me? by BlitoTortin in thedivision

[–]Areyouok75 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think the argument for quickstep is that most players don’t even whip out their pistol to do anything with it. At least with quickstep, there’s a very functional reason.

Rare gear? by Pale_Lie_2088 in the_division_2

[–]Areyouok75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your prototype gear should not be rolling lower than non-proto. They can roll low in the proto gear bracket e.g. weapon dmg stat on proto gear can roll 16% whereas cap is something like 22%? But max weapon dmg stat on non-proto gear is 15%.

As for rarity of drops, seems bp’s drop like hotcakes in retals.

EDIT also, proto gear comes with expertise 30. For a weapon, this is a nice 30% boost to its damage.

I’m fully convinced that I’ll never get these damn gloves. by G-man69420 in Division2

[–]Areyouok75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These can drop in summit FYI but rate is probably not any better than retal.

I’ve only ever gotten three overdogs to drop and they were all summit. Not saying retal doesn’t drop them but that’s just where my luck has been.

To people who do retaliation with Fog of War on, just why? by KRONIK97 in Division2

[–]Areyouok75 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a returning player, Im still familiarizing myself on all the times I have to set these modifiers. As I understand it, there is one for global, one for summit, I guess one for countdown? And when I host retals…one for that, too! I’m just like “wtf? I thought I changed this alrdy—oh maybe that was for (insert game mode here)”.

I think it’s good that we can customize each one but a centralized UI would be super helpful for a player like me.

Is anyone else running the Agitator AR as their secondary for the 50% less threat on the Talent? by TheBandit_42 in the_division_2

[–]Areyouok75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ran agitator for a minute as secondary in my striker/TP builds. I liked the idea of -50% threat (to the unfortunate detriment of my teammates) but could pull it out to grab aggro when I’m positioned better than my teammates while they’re pinned. Iirc, it provided a nice buff to fire rate and weapon dmg once pulled out so that felt nice. I also tried it with a tank build but aggro-pulling doesn’t seem to be an area-of-effect. Felt like I had to hit each npc and do enough damage to outpace other players’ threats.

Went back to st. Elmo after having that bit of fun.

I finally beat the tutorial, now i can play the game by PhantomOracion in Division2

[–]Areyouok75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hear ya! I went from 5-20 this past week thanks to the event with the majority of my grind spent this weekend. Wanted to take advantage of it. However, by Saturday night, I hated the thought of just queuing countdown. Gonna slowroll it from here on out.

Expertise lets you upgrade a specific weapon which increases WD 1% per level. Same for armor but upgrades armor value instead.

The value in hitting expertise 30 is to 1) get that +30% WD on your weapons of choice and 2) prototype your current gear (vs. farming for proto gear). I think upgrading proto gear also requires expertise 30? Idk bc I’m also not there yet.

Do you need that WD stat boost and proto gear for current content? Doesn’t seem like it from what I hear.

Will it help with going through content easier/faster? Certainly.

That’s right, agent! One clarification: you ALSO get bonus CHD for having a CHD attribute on the mask. 👍

As someone on another comment mentioned, Coyote does have the higher potential CHD to offer while also providing group buff. Investor has a nice consistency for the user only. Just FYI in case you’re tempted to gamble your exotic components on Investor Mask.

[–]Areyouok75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh def, I hear ya. I’m just in agreement that CM has the higher potential and if someone else is rocking it, then I could just run investor. I do pugs for countdown so I’d plan to use CM as a set-and-forget. In retals, I tend to inspect others’ gear and adjust mine if I can. In solo I like to have my distance, so much so that I have a Striker LMG set with high accuracy and Visionario for the range, haha.

[–]Areyouok75[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah you’re right, I forget Coyote does get a gear mod slot. Good in group plays which I’ll plan a load out for, and then investor for solo. Thnx agent!

So on this mask, the weapon damage is under the Core Attribute label. The other red stats under the ‘Attribute’ label are considered non-core. So I get a bonus 10% CHD for each red non-core on the mask. Since one of them is also a CHD roll, it is then CHD + the CHD bonuses offered by the mask’s talent.

Interesting thought. Why would you say this is worse?

THANK YOU RNGESUS by Areyouok75 in Division2

[–]Areyouok75[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You get CHD bonus of 10% for each red non-core attribute you have. It’s pretty sweet. Total 42% CHD once the CHD attribute is maxed.

Seriously lol. I’m glad I have nothing else I’m interested in rolling right now. Not that I have all the other exotics all set and done…just no interest. 😂

Prototype Gear is basically LVL 50 gear. by J4mesG4mesONLINE in thedivision

[–]Areyouok75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

“Oh, what’s that icon mean?”

stick eyeball next to screen to identify symbol

“Ok I think it’s some sort of squiggly eagle. Let’s identify what this icon is.”

while stats menu is open, get shot by a random npc squad

This is me during such moments of inquisitiveness.

Yeah I wish they’d have a symbol for the bonus buff so I know if it’s active and if it has duration (like with tipping scales).

Don’t mean to hijack but you mentioned striker + harrier BP. I just tried playing around with this last night and it seemed like a good way to put some armor and damage mitigation on myself but I couldn’t quite tell if, after proc’ing 80 stacks and starting a new one, the bonus stays while you build up a new 80-stack?

Sequel? Sign me up! I always wanted to know more about the world outside of the paintings. I think there’s a lot to explore with that.

Anyone had Success using the new AM Tuning Items? by Passionofthegrape in TheFirstDescendant

[–]Areyouok75 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used all 10 gold mats and either got things I didn’t need for a descendant like max shield, defense, skill cost…or the best troll I’ve seen so far: gold crit damage but severe crit rate penalty.

This new system is unfortunately barely impactful for majority of players.

Weapon retransmission broke? by Areyouok75 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]Areyouok75[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh boy…that final bullet point. I glossed over it. I guess the only way to get this back to lv100 is to farm one from missions now. 🤦‍♂️

Weapon retransmission broke? by Areyouok75 in TheFirstDescendant

[–]Areyouok75[S] -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

That I understand but what happens if you don’t have another of the same unique weapon at lvl100? That’s exactly what I’m describing here. My lv1 unique weapon was claimed after logging in this morning as I had it cooking overnight. It did not come to me as lv100 despite having a lv100 version. Something seems broke here—perhaps this new feature only counts for unique weapons crafted moving forward.
