*** The Division Thread 2.0 ***

I'm wondering of someone has datamined the gloves drop chance in general and per specific gear set and source? A lot of you are on Reddit so might know. I'm fearing I'll need to go into the DZ for them gloves and I'd rather not but stick to DN farming.

Where did you get yours, Tek? I know UG heroic drops them but I never get AB there plus it takes too long to finish a run for minimal rewards as compared to farming the collective.

I realised this morning I got one set as a reward from DN, and the other set from the horsemen.

Got my alt to 30 this morning, and then realised I need a few more bits and pieces to split the builds up between two characters.

New m1a
New x45 fw
New AR x2 for ab
New smg x2 for ab
Deadeye backpack
1 more vigarous chest

Got alpha on my alt just now but its more like an alpha mule until I decide what to do or get other items. I'm still thinking alpha with vig chest and savage gloves, with two ar' and two smg's but will see. I might actually just sell it all and make a deadeye/hf build on my alt. Not sure yet, will need to build and test.

Rolled a few bits on the deadeye set to crit dmg, more firearms etc.....this could be some test this evening haha!!

Fl vid uploading now.

For pistols team up with me, you'll have 6 in 2 secs :/ :D pistol king me! Are they going to nerf those?

If you need a fourth for testing that build I can try a bit of DZ in hope for an item or two.

What I would also like to see datamined is if/why since 1.3 85% seems to be rolled for electronics? It's a real problem for me and have done away with many gear because of this.

omg man Is that still happening??

And yeah bud, for sure, would be interesting, I will try and create it tonight or tomorrow.

I will check on reddit or the reddit discord as there used to be sections for people who were datamining various information.
 
Yeah lol pistols galore over here, but I have been getting very good weapons other than that recently as well; that legendary SVD and G36 C.

Thanks in advance for asking the Reddit community.

Cool, hopefully see you there. Your build testing might alleviate my collecting it if it sucks he he... But seriously, would like to see it in action.

I ****ing bet I get decisive gloves when Massive decide to Nerf the X45 and further nerf the Sentry set because it's the flavour of the month. :rolleyes:

Is the pistol nerf a rumor or did they say they would?

As for Sentry's; I agree with what Arekkz said in the podcast; up the base level to 40-60 and leave all 1.1 sets behind, rendering them useless after 30. That will even the playing field. Make no mistake; I am a Sentry's lover and dislike the nerf; however from an objective point of view it needs to happen - like so many preceeding games have done. That and nerfing NPCs (have the difficulty elsewhere rather than silly level increases) and providing useful gearsets instead of situational ones and giving us options to actually become powerful again. Like in Borderlands I could become powerful after hard grinding, in this game, as Drew accurately worded it, no matter what you build you'll always feel weak. But I digress :D

they are reducing the health of the NPC's soon apparently as they admitted they made a mistake which is good. Just a waiting game.

Are they definitely nerfing sentry further? If they made it just marksmen rifles I would still use it as the bonuses are good.

But I don't think they should leave the old gear sets behind, considering currently - the glitch sets providing DZ ownage are the new ones - alpha, deadeye and reclaimer.

As a group, I don't feel weak as complimenting builds prevail, but as a solo player - this game cant be played anymore on the most difficult stuff.

I can yeah. Nothing is rolled yet so will do that later :)

And you are right, gloves are hard to get for all gearsets to be honest

And that video is the exact reason I put this build together lol!

I've got all the gloves. :D
Been trying to get a few pieces of Sentry gear, but all I keep getting are gloves, 3 in the last couple of weeks, all 268.

Its not hard to data mine Div files ;)
 
They need to be more original in their raising NPCs difficulty than just upping their levels - lazy. But yeah their nerfs is good but will be 1.4 if lucky...

From a developer perspective if they want all sets to used and the overpowered ones to be left behind it's a must to even the playing field - I hope they have the guts to do it come 1.4. Or else the whole game will be about Striker's and Sentry's and Tactician's and it shouldn't.

Yeah in a group it's good but I don't solo DZ 01-04 anymore for some easy mats, for example.
 
Leaving sets behind isn't utilising all sets...

I don't think the whole game is about those three to be honest. Reclaimer is getting featured more, as is FM, alpha, deadeye, firecrest also seems fairly popular to be honest as well.

Tactician meta is the only problem people face which is funny because the way the NPC's are at the moment, they need one regardless if they hate it or not.

Although that may change as well, as Momo has a fully buffed electronics reclaimer build which will do the same job as a tactician set, but also provides the reclaimer buff.

IMHO - NPC need to be nerfed a bit as they said, the new gear sets need to be fixed as to not have stacking dmg buffs, tacticians need to be reigned in so that either they cant have toughness that high, or they get affected by armour shred OR they cannot provide full electronics buff and have good DPS still, nomad needs to be removed or improved, and they need an option for solo players.

That is it for gear and I highly doubt they will remove any gear sets but I admit a lot of them do need fixed/buffed etc

Edit:

Also depends if the discussion is on PVP/PVE. For PVE the changes above would be fine along with the NPC nerf (even though as a group I don't think this is necessary), but for PVP it needs a complete overhaul imo.

Well then instead of asking on reddit, I can ask you to look into F34R's question?

I have never even considered doing it so wouldn't know where to start to be honest

Takes time and im to lazy :D
Just saying that if you want you can do yourself..but as far as i know gloves has less % to drop than any other item,thats why they more rare than any vests,packs etc.

And talking about NPC's - Massive is as lazy as me :D just giving them more health and more firepower doesnt make game more challenging..
Many good,semi good games died because of this and Massive need to be carefull what they doing

hehe no problem man :) I just had a quick google and found a few tools to play around with so I might have a look myself at some point.

And yes...that is their plan - just in increase stamina and dmg done but they stepped it up too far at the moment which they admitted but are taking their time rolling back. They may surprise us though and fix it soon

I believe there were new factions discovered in a mining session a few months ago, or just after 1.3, I cant remember which would bring a different challenge.

What if the NPC's could utilise gear sets? :O that would be interesting! Dudes running around with reclaimers, giving their faction consumables and other factions running sentry/striker/predators.

And then there are the nomad NPC wearers where you get a bonus if you find them in the first place... lol
 
If they are not going to nerf lvl 35s' ( which i don't have a problem with personally ), atleast raise the ammo capacity.

I know you can Police bpack / Lonestar etc.. but not everyone can do that.

Aren't we still using the same capacity from when lvl 33s were king ?

Whats the glitch with Reclaimer ?

I run reclaimer and hadn't noticed anything, or is it a DZ specific glitch ?

:confused:

Ah I didn't mean to group reclaimer into that as its been fixed! Thanks for pointing that out

They are definitely going to, they admitted that they put the health on them too high which I don't have a problem with either, but if they leave it as it is they need to give us like 200% ammo increase lol
 
Noob moment last night.

DN Heroic.

Spent the final round swearing at Massive for the buggy pos game because it was using up consumables on my Reclaimer build.

Ran out of usefull stuff, but completed it.

Checked backpack - Police !!

:o
