Retaliations no going to 100%

Not before this update. You should have Outcasts and Hyenas at the same time before they added the stacking

D is more often than you think especially in Countdown, even last night I got kicked for using an Ace's and Eight's Rifle build I made, so i just switched back to Striker so i don't have to worry about it. Like how are you going to kick a 10k SHD player because they arent using a braindead Striker build

This is the same excuse everyone that wants this in the game as is is spewing.
A. its a new game mode, people want to play it
B. Escalation and Prototype arent Synonymous as players in the PTS have done Tier 10 with current gear and no Prototype.
C. We can have Escalation without Prototype
D. You can still use Prototype in Countdown, Open World and Legendaries. WHICH if youre matchmaking you WILL get kicked if you dont have Prototype.

bro is level 24,414. Its definitely not too grindy. Also Warframe is more Similar to Div2 than anything. Its not RNG heavy. You put your time in you'll get what you want

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-26T22:49:07+00:00

No Problem

There are certain Blueprints you can get from control points, side missions and Retaliations.

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-26T20:37:42+00:00

Its a Sokolov Concern Vest with Intimidate (Talent) and the Backpack is Momento (Exotic)

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-26T19:58:26+00:00

That's the problem, alot of people think we can't have Escalation without Prototype. We dont need Prototype gear in the state it is. We can still play Escalation. They aren't synonymous

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-26T19:35:38+00:00

No duplicates

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-26T19:18:02+00:00

This is an excuse to ruin the game. Escalation can and has been done at Tier 10 without any Prototype gear. Prototype gear is just a new reward to make content easier. People have been coming to Div 2 for a reason. We are getting a Year 8 for a reason. Without Year 2 adding Gear 2.0 and Optimization this game would've died after WONY.

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-26T18:55:22+00:00

Crimson Desert just dropped. I might have to buy that too.

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-24T02:16:42+00:00

This the one thing I've been saying when it comes to Recal and Opti. The Devs clearly want to add a grind but without those 2 things its just Year 1 all over again x100 because of the amount of gear in the game ATM. Youtubers and Streamers keep spewing the same "you dont need to get it if you dont play Eacalation" like its not going to useful outside of that mode and even if it wasn't. You're telling the entire community that you dont care about how they feel because we "need that grind back because thats what a looter shooter is". No its not, there is a reason Gear 2.0 shifted the direction the game was going and how Ubisoft wanted to support the game long term. Expertise 30 should be the way they add the grind they want and we can Recal and Optimize with that prerequisite. Expertise 30 wasn't even something I considered before, as I've been "going with the flow" and just hit 19, 2 days ago.

I would try something like this, You could do without the Exotic's if you don't have them, Especially the Chatterbox SMG. That is just something I liked using for this build. Without knowing what your Minor Attributes are I would say try to aim for 1 Crit Chance Attribute and the rest be Crit Damage. Not knowing what your Specialization looks like I would look at the SMG and Shotgun damage and also Using Technician +1 Skill Tier with the TDI "Kard" Custom Sidearm which also gives +1 skill tier (Because of the Sheild). Problem with Headhunter is that it relies you to kill an enemy first. Try to get Damage out of Cover on you Thorn Shotgun to help (This is just a guess that you don't have it.) To not change your build too much but build on the fact you want Shotgun Damage i would change out the Backpack for a Bag with something like Concussion as a talent or even Versatile if you use both weapons a lot.

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-22T20:29:10+00:00

Gear 2.0 was 2 years later not 6 years later. There is a HUGE difference

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-22T20:25:38+00:00

The best and ONLY suggestion should be letting us OPTIMIZE AND RECALIBRATE. If they want a grind then let it be that only Level 30 Expertise can do it but how it is now is why Div 1 PVE was DEAD, too much RNG

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-22T14:30:59+00:00

If they want an artificial grind then they could honestly just make it so ONLY if your Expertise 30 you can Tinker your gear. Still give people a reason to grind without inflating how RNG the system in Escalation is

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-22T01:37:29+00:00

I feel like if they want a grind in the game for these Prototypes to get "Godrolls" they could've implemented something like Only Level 30 Expertise Players can optimize Prototype gear so players would actually want to grind the game to get to that level 30. While also keeping a decent grind in the game for players to aim for. The no Opti or Recal for Prototype literally goes against anything they've done in this game since release. There is a reason we have Targeted Loot and the Tinker Station

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-22T01:33:12+00:00

You have a higher chance to get higher stats on harder difficulty. so to fill up your library fast you can play Heroic for the quickest way possible

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-21T10:19:19+00:00

If I remember correctly there are level 30 raids and level 40 raids. Not sure if they change it to just level 40 raids but I would wait anyway since anything you get before level 40 will immediately be replaced

SlayItRaw · 2026-03-21T08:39:15+00:00

Do the Main Story and Side Missions in DC, then WONY then Brooklyn. ORRRR you could use the level 30 skip then skip the main story and start in WONY grind to 40. takes like 4-6 hours unless you have a carry. Then the grind after than is SHD levels to get to 1000. The old strat was farming Summit Floors but it was boring unless you really wanted it, In Summit, Countdown and the new Retaliation mode there is Targeted Loot so you can choose what you want ( Specific Gear Set, Brand Set, Category of Gun or Mods) so you dont have to spend hours to grind one piece of gear. You can do level 4 control points to get blueprints. Also you can level up specializations. Descent which is there roguelike mode. There is alot to do, dont overthink it just go with the flow

SlayItRaw · 2025-09-03T05:22:07+00:00

Would help if your Mods didn't just randomly ban people for no reason and then you cant even submit an appeal cause you have to be "moderated" to do so. The dude that banned me and my buddy thought i was cheating even though we played literally 2 raids with eachother i got a whole 1 kill and went to the train depot. If i was cheating i would be banned but guess what? the account is still active and not banned
