*** The Division Thread 2.0 ***

Reached level 19 last night, about to turn 20 and looking forward to clearing the Lexinton Event Center with someone.

I tired to do it at level 15 the other day and after some trouble, did manage to get to the boss area but them two machine gunners was impossible, I tried to snipe them from afar while being on the other side of the hall and keep moving but they would instant kill me if they got any type of view on me. Very frustrating.

I heard people talking that in the next patch, the aimbots that the enemy bots have will be toned down or something, because it's very frustrating where I can't do anything against these enemies that instant kill me from the other side of the room with a machine gun.

Aside from that! I really like this game. First game in many years where I could play for hours on end to a day and not get bored.

Glad you're enjoying it. The "aimbot" feeling will be lessened once you get to level 30 and start working your way through the World Tiers (up t 5) and get much better gear - you'll be going toe-to-toe with them in no time :)

You can matchmake (with randoms) for assistance during your mission runs, or get on the OcUK Discord channel and get a wee hand from someone, depending on what time of day you play etc.

I'm always up for boosting...love trolling the NPCs with 93R :D :D
 
What are the best skills to equip mid-game?

A mate and I are roughly level 20 and I've gone for First Aid with the Defibrillator mod and the Turret with the Dragonbreath mod!

The Defibrillator is handy as I can fire it across to my mate to revive him but the Turret and flamethrower seems to have a very limited range!

Even at gear score they don't have a great range. You need FireCrest to increase the range by 30%. I think you only need a 3 piece for that though.
 
Ive been running first aid with booster shot - pulse with tac scanner and tactical link for signature

use pulse, then tac link and do some very nice sniper headshots :D
was hitting 900k+ with that but thats at lvl 30 256 gearscore so not sure what numbers you will get at lvl 20
 
Reached level 25 tonight.

I joined 2 others at the beginning of a mission and stuck with them for 3 more, all together we cleared 4 missions and only one left is the last story mission at the UN building, did one or two side missions with them as well.

No one spoke or anything but we worked pretty well as a team, after hitting a wall at the server room at the Russian Consulate, I suggested we lure the enemy mobs back into the other rooms instead of defending inside the server room itself.

From there, we managed to take one or two down as they came through the doors, worked really well.

We had to use the same tactic against the LMB in some of their sections with some back tracking to get better firing points.

Made tons of money, exp and got some decent gear drops.

Really fan of my L85 A2. I was using it as my main and started to use it in a more fire suppressing role against tough enemies and snipers to keep their heads down to allow the other two to move forward and flank them to kill them.

One guy had the Riot Shield skill, that was pretty epic, I used him as a shield and stood behind him as we both moved forward with me firing over his shoulder.

Hoping to replay all the missions again to enjoy them again, one or two missions I joined with others, I joined too late and was at the end to finish them, so would like to enjoy them from the beginning and maybe on hard! :D

Do we know if they plan to add more content to the game? Doing the missions is so much fun.

It's a shame that for PVE content, you not allowed to use more skills because I honestly can't see using anything else other then the Turret, Defib/Medikit thing and the Medical Uber skill whatever it's called.

Still the only named drop I've had is a bloody Showstopper last week. I don't play every night but tonight I must have played for 4-5 hours. Nothing. Nada. I've done missions across all difficulties, some good, challenging missions with Gamester tonight. Two man Challenging is actually that, challenging so satisfying when it came off but getting annoyed at the state of my drops.
 
Most people getting most of the drops are playing an awful lot more than you. Just the way it is. I've had a showstopper and a caduceus. That's it. Still no Barrets chest.
 
Had a showstopper too, shame as I hate shotgun builds :D

Might get the historian though, that delayed explosion talent looks cool with a good amount of skill power.

I gave the Historian a test last night and found it a bit underwhelming:( Even with 280k skill power the explosive shot was only hitting for 44k. It's bound to be better with more SP, but probably not by much.

It should be 20% of SP, 44k isn't 20% of 280k. Was that non-crit?

I think they will. In 1.6 there are a few hints towards it, dz entrances that cant be accessed from the LZ etc and considering the length of time till destiny 2, now is their time to grab some of those players.

Your post sounded like epic fun :)

In regards to skills, surprisingly at end game its a bit more feasible to run with different stuff inc running with no heal if you have the right talents.

devs saying 500k skill should give 100k ish iirc.
 
Ive only had the Tenabrae drop for me, and thats from playing quite a bit. I just bought a couple of exotics from the vendor in prep for 1.6
 
I bought all the exotics available from the vendors as well and a few duplicates to see what random talents roll.

In addition, I have the warlord, caddy x3, tenebrae, HH x3, medved x2 and Urban MDR x2.

Still need the tommy gun, showstopped, golden rhino and thompson, but wont be farming for them. If i get it then success, if not, there are lots of places to get them from 1.6 on legendary etc so im not worried :)
