Hey guys! So as the patch notes will tell you here have been some extensive changes to weapon mods. Most mods no longer have negative stats but have had slightly reduced positive stats. Though some mods with high positives still have negatives.
How do you all feel about some of these changes? How might this allow you make generally stronger weapons as well as high-tier single stat weapons? Which is more your style and/or which do you feel is stronger for end game play?

There's definitely been a lot of confusion around some of the mod changes. To take straight from the Patch Notes:

  • A closer equivalence between required skill power and the bonuses granted.
  • Changed the amount of skill power on gear to not increase exponentially with level, but instead more linearly. This results in most skill power values on gear being lower, but in accordance with the lowered requirements.
  • T...

Just trying to see if it's an isolated issue or not. More information and details always help!

I'm seeing in the thread that some people have not received cosmetic drops in a while.
Has this changed recently since the patch?

The new cap for Gear Score is 500 with the Tidal Basin update. Generally speaking you will receive gear drops at slightly above, slightly below or equal to your current Gear Score, including outliers.
Imagine a bell curve with your current Gear Score as the peak of the bell.
As the OP's video talks about, being at a Gear Score doesn't mean that all gear will be at your Gear Score. It can go higher, equal, or lower. But at max Gear Score, gear cannot drop that is above max Gear Score. ... Read more

Hey everyone, the team is aware of the concerns raised in this and similar threads. Any more info and details about when you noticed any weirdness is super helpful.
Things like World Tier (or level)
How many Apparel items you have
Play time
Etc.

It sounds like another case of RNG being RNG. I can share some superstitious tricks that work for me but I know for sure it can be rough. I wish you the best of luck though.

Edit: That said, the different sets drop from Black Tusk enemies and activities, so it may help to diversify your draw pool as well. Just something to keep in mind.

Hey everyone, the team is aware of the Specialization ammo scarcity. Please continue sharing the specific details of when you noticed any weirdness going on, which Specialization(s) it has been affecting, any outliers, etc. More info from a variety of instances always helps!

As a reminder for how to normally get Spec. Ammo:
Demolitionist - Explosion Kills
Survivalist - Status Affliction Kills
Sharpshooter - Headshot Kills

I'm sorry to see you go and definitely understand your frustration. Any and all info about the details of the crashes you are experiencing to Ubisoft Support as well as system specs is always appreciated.

Thank you for the feedback! How does not being able to farm for a handful of specific items impact your choice of activities in The Division 2? Does it feel like you're gated from certain content or encouraged to play other content? Or something more nuanced?
Comment
After the update, how have your skill choices changed, if they have at all? Have you doubled down on your previous skills or did the mod changes encourage you to expand your repertoire? In either case, what are the skills?

Hey ksubs, the nerf was necessarily to the extended mags - it was a sweeping change to a lot of the weapon mod systems. Now there are plenty of mods with only positive traits available, as well as some mods with stronger positives, but slight negative trade offs. There's a mod now that is more in line with what you're looking for, adding +20 rounds with a -10% reload speed.
This change allows for optimization in certain aspects, but enables players to have generally improved weapons in all facets if they don't want to work around the negative traits.

How do you guys feel the sets and set traits compare between The Division and The Division 2?

Can confirm, I had both Missions completed before the update. Now both show as if I haven't started them. Returned to the original quest givers and nothing.

OK, I'll get this reported as well.

I will pass the feedback on, thanks everyone. It may be worth noting that 20 extra round magazines do exist (Sturdy Extended mags).
