Reanimated Global Event - OnlyTips - Popping heads for fun and profit - The Division 2

Glad the cloud on dying enemies can’t hurt me. I don’t have to worry about my Hardcore agent dying now. Thanks!

[@trinajackson5817]

thanks for the tips! this is my first run through the game so it's my first run through the global events so this is helpful!

[@martinmiller3765]

Played the GE today and thankfully skills are immune to the corrosive cloud! However, Vile mask doesn't seem to trigger from the shock when enemies resurrect. Anyway, here's the build I run: Technician, Punch Drunk, Chainkiller, 4 blue Foundry, headshot and handling, TDI Kard Custom+Determined, Crusader shield, drone. Pistol ones shots everything but I have Bighorn and a sniper on hand. Have fun agents!

Only the TIPPPPPS

[@insomniac-afk]

just come back after a 4 year hiatus so thank you

[@martinmiller3765]

I thought they fixed how the cloud kills your skills! I remember because I commented on the Division twitter about it during a reanimated GE, and at the next reanimated event the skills were immune.

[@ikia]

could be actually, i did not retest this claim, and might not have noticed it last time either that it was fixed already, as just out of habit we avoid skills that could get destroyed during this GE. just assumed that since the hostages still die, that skill were still also getting damaged. will give it a go later tonight on stream. thanks for letting me know.

good morning Ikia . i am Delta and i am from the Netherlands. i have one question. how did you get SHD 27777 like that?. my SHD is 8000. would like to know your xp framing how you do that. because my goal is to get SHD 30000. i would like to learn yours technique for xp framing

[@ikia]

in my case it is just playtime, i play a bit more than most, as if you take the shd lvl and divide it by hours played, i am in the 2-3 lvls per hour on that main account. while others are closer to an average of 5-10 lvl per hour with just xp farming more than i do. and those that used exploits like descent joining, faye or anderson when those were available will be way over 10 shd lvls per hour on average. overall nowadays, the faster lvling methods are just to openworld farm heroic 5 directives, and going for publics and hostage rescues. if you want a little more speed you can set up the bounty cheese method in downtown west as a additional way. and offcourse you can also go a little less savory way of using some of the exploity things like kenly. also this season alone there has been 4k shd available from 3x and 5x events, and likely future seasons will be the same.

[@DELTA1701Smakman]

@ikia Thank you for the extensive explanation. Here I have something. I will now follow your advice. Thank you for the information.

Hi iKia, do you have a short video that explains the numbers you see in your builds? I'm thinking the first one is the first shot, second shot is 2nd shot, and 3rd is the cap shot though it might be great if there is a reference to be sure. Some builds also have hives but I don't know which hive skill they are. :)

[@ikia]

for headhunter builds it is like you say there, it is the shots in their order, as headhunter stacks up, so you can know how hard it will hit if you get the same stats. then also on builds with hotshot there are 2 sets of damages per weapon as there we also have shots just normally, but also with hotshot prestacked to have the damage buff going for all the shots. and on the head hunter techtanks i am using the artificer hive, that is the technicians special hive that you unlock in the specialization tree. as that will heal the shield every ten seconds even if you just have it on your back without deploying it.

[@Jaiyrz]

@@ikia ​ Build 1.11 HF HH HeadHunterFury Regulus/Shotty is this restorer hive?

[@ikia]

on the non tecktanks, like 1.11, it is the reviver hive. it gets used on basically any red build that does not care much about it skills, as it will autodeploy revive you if you go down.

[@ChevyMuscle55]

Shit, I go 3-4 Blue Armor Cores on my 1 Shot Headhunter Builds anyway (with Bloodsucker), without Global Events or Modifiers active, and still 1 shot every Non-Helmeted Enemy, from the 1st shot (Red,Purple,Yellow...doesn't matter) 🤷‍♂️ No need to go All Red for Solo Heroic. Legendary and Group Play, however, requires some altering. Good video. Thanks Ikia!

[@ikia]

what you stated there is not true at all, atleast not for a determined white death. outside of modifiers and GE's, leaving out vigi and 1 blue core will lose you the ability to start on a purple nonsniper/rusher already, let alone 3-4 blue cores. it is fine to go with more armour if you feel you need it, it is not fine to embellish what it can do. i am surpirised that you would even think you could slide that past without scrutiny.

[@ChevyMuscle55]

@ikia oh, it is absolutely true, but i have to start with the Nemesis to Proc Headhunter, then I swap to my White Death and 1 tap everything from there. If I want to start with my White Death, then yes, I have to start on a Red Bar. I find this much better than just running an All Red Vigilance 1 shot Build. You prefer to hit as hard as possible with no Survivability....to each their own. 🤷‍♂️ PS: I worded it like that so that you would reply with scrutiny. Not to argue, but to start the conversation. 😉

[@ikia]

yes it is true that if you use the nemesis, which was obviously that you were leaving that out, that is why i specified the white death, you can start on a purple with your setup, but you did not feel to need to include that at all did you in your original claim, making for a lie by omission. because there is a downside that you are also not talking about here, and that is that after that nemesis shot to start, you now have to get a white death headshot to start determined, on now aggressive and evasive enemies, tell me that that has never gotten you killed. instead a vigi full read can easily start on a purple and trigger determined on the white death with a easy shot on enemies standing still. survivability comes in many form, one of them is making sure there is nothing out there to survive from as quickly as possible.

[@ChevyMuscle55]

@@ikia lie by omission? You posted the Nemesis IN the build you showcased.

[@scooternut7198]

its a shame they havent fixed this event so allies dont get affected by the cloud , i use true patriot regulus and oh carol for max "pretty lights " effect i generally drop down to doing broadcasts as no Lemming like hostages that always run towards danger to factor in then
