I think ferros mask is the most useless for me. I keep caduceus, bullfrog and skulls only.

Can be useful with a skulls build for PVP, etc. in most other situations you'd hopefully have immuniser.

Yes,confirmed-exo caches from 1.7 will drop new stuff in 1.8,so peeps saving them,Massives tweet also confirmed that
New LMG named Alejandro 5 new weapons if im not mistaken

Big al, two new Snipers and a new SMG. LMG and SMG are amazing, the snipers are **** tbh.

Weapon balance changes as well, warlord is now the highest damage per bullet AR in the game and showstopper had a massive damage buff.

Going to be interesting. Nomad and PM are too OP though for PVP so they still need to balance that

Refreshed > Ferros. Esp in 1.8 where you can 7s of immunity from adrenaline.

Ferros is only really good for legendary napalm for leaving the base or kiting bosses on higher levels

Rroff · 21 Nov 2017 at 19:43

Got a decent roll warlord the other day could be interesting with the changes - combined with alpha and nomad helps to keep you from dying a horrid death.

Refreshed is a bit buggy though and can get stuck in a state.

EDIT: The bugs in this game are weird though - quite a few people complain the last trigger on Dragon's Nest and FL frequently bugs out on them but they have no problem doing Stolen Signal - I've done those two dozens of times now without a single bug while SS bugs out on me every single time without fail.

Mario · 21 Nov 2017 at 19:47

Seems time to get back group again-much more fun

Need to do Clear Sky,other inc. runs for exo caches
Alejandro

Refreshed is only buggy because of lag, getting in that third segment is an interesting one to time.

Oh yeah, group resistance etc is much better than solo.

BIG Alejandro! That is the actual name. 1000RPM LMG :O

Short and informative about 1.8

llamadal · 22 Nov 2017 at 10:47

Thanks mario, will take a look

GAM8LE · 22 Nov 2017 at 18:08

Seems massive might be paying some very big streamers to play the division once 1.8 comes out: lirik, shroud, summit combined bring it almost 100,000 views between them when they stream and have a lot of influence. They have been tweeting about it apparently.

Like streamers or not, this could bring in a lot of new players.

I am getting more excited about 1.8 tbh. I’m ignoring pts experience, positive they will pull it together.

Might even jump in for a weekend survival run if anyone wants to do some pvp? Will be my first time launching the game in 3 weeks lol! Have never gone this long without playing

Mario · 22 Nov 2017 at 18:28

I should be online during weekend,done all my survivals on all toons,so can go just for fun

We can get in group,then before starting Survival disband so we will be on same server and should be in same Survival as well - should be fun

We did that not too long ago!! I think we only managed 7 people though which is what we experienced before with PVP stuff

hehe

But it worked

As long as we can have a good time - up to anything

Feels good to play again

FredFlint · 22 Nov 2017 at 20:15

Finally something for the PVE players. It's coming at a good time as getting a bit board of Destiny.

Glanza · 23 Nov 2017 at 08:34

When 1.8 drops I'll be picking this back up after not playing in months, I can see what's going to happen though Massive drop this the day Destiny 2 dlc comes out.

Goes for a lot of things in this game though heh - last night was nearly downed due to damage (could see the tracers) coming through the wall 2-3 seconds after I'd gone around not 1 but 3 corners heh - this was PVE as well not even PVP.

GAM8LE · 23 Nov 2017 at 13:09

True Rroff. Their servers need a serious boost.

If I ever find a laggy server I simply server hope to a new instance and its normally ok. Just load in a DZ checkpoint, and use matchmaking for something - if you get a loading screen - new server

SiDeards73 · 23 Nov 2017 at 16:11

wow 1.8 looks immense, definitely will start playing this again, will start to hone my skills prior to patch

Malevolence · 23 Nov 2017 at 18:05

Is this worth picking up in the Steam sale or would any new players be a tad late to the party?

1.8 drops in December at some point where they add new features and will get people returning, now would be a good time to get it to join in with all that.

Malevolence · 23 Nov 2017 at 19:22

Actually, looking at it you need to buy the season pass to access the other PVP modes. So it doesn't work out as quite the bargain it first appears.
