Thanks for the feedback on some of the NPCs. I've been seeing a lot of people talk about NPC behavior recently, especially with them rushing - so I appreciate the extra detail!

What are the specific scenarios you find the Outcasts to be the most dangerous in?

Particularly with the melee damage, TU3 saw universal melee damage reductions to all NPCs. Are you saying the damage output from these particular enemies is still too jarring? What are the particular situations you find yourself in where these enemies are giving you the most trouble?

I appreciate the feedback on this, everyone. If you happen to have images of this occurring please post them here. But I'll be sure to pass this along to the team. Thank you.

Since there is another populated thread about this same topic, I'll be merging the two.

Please take note of the top threads and their topics before making a new thread so that we can not only avoid having split discussions like this, but also keep the forums more orderly in general. Thank you!

Loving all the advice and tips in here everyone. Hope you're all able to secure that weekly project with ease now.

Edit: The link here wasn't working for me and there was another thread featuring what I would believe is the same video so I've merged the threads.

Hey everyone, as this thread has sort of turned into flaming back and forth and gotten pretty off topic, it will be closed. Please try to keep the discussion in line with the original post and treat each other respectfully in the future. Thank you.

On the one hand, it is two birds with one stone. But on the other, it's a smaller variety of things to do. I recommend taking a look at the weekly challenge as well if you want to mix it up both with activities and rewards (Apparel Event is still going on.)

Happy hunting!

I have been playing around with them for weeks now, mixing and matching pieces with different RNG stats, or using a couple of pieces for set bonuses, and no matter what I do, I'm still gimped in terms of DPS and all utility roles I try to play. Any time I get a green drop now, it just gets dismantled.

I would like to hear from Ubisoft as to why the gear sets were designed the way they were designed, and what purpose they saw those designs fillin...

Very cool. I appreciate the in-depth (and in-character) details of the build you've got going on here. Very very cool indeed, plus some awesome gameplay videos. Fantastic!

I hope we're lucky enough to get another as detailed build from you in the future!

Well, it's a practice that has multiple functions... It can encourage players to perhaps try something out of their comfort zone of gameplay or go a step further and challenge themselves (either in finding a group to participate or the gameplay itself). Having specialized drop locations can also make it easier to selectively farm for a specific piece of gear (i.e. if all Exotics dropped from all sources, your chance of getting the one specific exotic you want is technically (in most cases) lowered). It can also act a sort of trophy for a player's dedication and prowess to the game.

This is a topic that has been discussed quite a bit since before The Division 2 was released. But I'm always curious about how individuals look at it. What kind of potential reward would be big/alluring enough that it might make you go the distance and try the Raid?

Other posts in here are absolutely correct. There is a chance to get keys from caches, not a guarantee. Additionally, there is a limit to item obtainable through the Apparel Event.

Best of luck!

Your weapon's efficiency and deadliness are closely tied with your plastyle. Sure you can use Rifles from super long range or super close range, but they have a golden zone for distance. Plus particular tactics that they work the best with. Weapon balance can go a lot further than just the raw DPS or damage output of a weapon/class of weapon.

Which begs the question for everyone, whaat's a situation where your choice of weapons perfectly fit for the encounter at hand?

And the plot thickens...

Always fun to watch people make fresh discoveries.

Hey James, give the game a quick restart, make sure Uplay is up to date, and reset your Voice/audio settings to default. If the issue persists, please head over to Ubisoft Support and they'll do their best to help you find a solution!

Tactical height advantage is my guess. Always good to have the high ground.

Fun picture though, thanks for sharing.

So I'm frustrated with The Raids DLC, it's seems that only clan, and friends group as squad can only play the DLC.

What about those other players who does not have a clan, or friends playing this game at the same time or place.

You can't expect your friends and clan always online all the time, because they have school, work, etc.

It's unfair not money worth.

So Ubisoft since you said that we are Community, please add a Matchmaking so other players around the world can join together as a group, so everyone can enjoy The Raid. ...

Where in the Raid do you feel this comparison is the most clear? When during the Raid did the game hold and/or lose your interest?
