The Division 2 Is On The Verge Of A PHENOMENAL Change...

Year 6 Season 1 of The Division 2 is set to deliver a pleasant surprise- and it's one that I think will have a long-lasting positive effect on the game. Let me know your thoughts!

[@oman4229]

I love that concept, anything that creates build diversity is exciting

[@jowallprieto7727]

Exotic Attachments with the probability of higher rolls that the common ones would be great as well. Imagine a magazine Exotic attachment that has +30 rounds capacity but if its a perfect roll, you could end up pick up a +14 which doesn't beat the one we already have on some weapons for +20 rounds so you have to keep trying to find one that gets you the max rolls on top of the RNG of getting one altogether.

[@RogueGold]

That would be interesting!

[@Libertarian1776]

IMO having more options is rarely ever a bad thing. Something I'd like to see be addressed is drop rates on mods, specifically Blue mods and even more specific 13% PFE and maxed out armor on kill, on the rare occasion when they do drop they are 9 or 10% which is ridiculous on Heroic with 4 directives, how about letting us optimize them and give me something to do with all those resources that have been dropping on the floor for months now.

[@lohnar6039]

I thought you can reroll but you’ll still only get red, blue or yellow depending on what’s already on the exotic. Eg: coyotes come with red chc cd, so you’ll only be able to get red rerolls when you do, like WH,HSD

[@RogueGold]

That's what I've been hearing from how it was on the PTS, we'll see what the mechanics are once the live update hits 👍

[@MatthiasPowerbomb]

I hope you're right. I can FINALLY get rid of Hazard Protection on my Vile mask, for one example off the top of my head. I've never liked all attributes being fixed on exotics in Div 2. There are a number of exotics that just collect dust in my stash. Some of them are because they're simply lackluster, but a few are because the attributes just don't slot in with any of my builds. It would be great to be able to change that, finally.

[@keithla5711]

Totally agree with the vile. Getting crit chance/damage would really help my red Eclipse build.

[@DS1150]

Agree

[@MatthiasPowerbomb]

@@keithla5711 I'll be swapping HazPro for Skill Damage, but a Crit version would be interesting. I have a pretty unorthodox bleed build where that would come in really handy.

[@Swade1985]

I still don’t understand why it has haz pro!!

[@Texasmike]

What they need to do is allow a player to be able to break down any gear that has exotics associated to it. Example I have a 25 max gear and I wana switch up make new builds, I should be able to get the exotic componets that I invested in the gear or weapons when this is deconstructed.

[@RogueGold]

That would be a solid change for sure 👍

[@torch917]

I totally agree. They should also remove the limits for the textile vondor. I only get the exotic cache to deconstruct for the component. By the time it resets, I've already gotten my textiles back. At this rate, I'll never use up my textiles & they'll basically be collecting dust.

[@iaswg955]

You're my favorite division channel, i would love to see more DZ content from you as i enjoy your hunting for the EB and pvp content most

[@RogueGold]

Thanks very much! I love making those videos, will definitely do more soon 👍

[@shannonhall8870]

With exotic gear they need to make it recalibratable twice for the attributes instead of making us re roll the Item a bunch. This would make exotics more coveted than normal gear, which they should be.

[@grannde_]

How to SAVE THE DIVISION 2 The season before the new dlc comes out you SHOULD DO THIS!! 1000 shd level and 10 expertise given to anyone that starts the game, to make it easier to just play the game and it’s been long enough so you might as well do it. Or KEEP THE GRIND and do everything else IMPORTANT: FULL ANTI CHEAT this alone will revive the pvp heavily in this game. Make expertise twice as fast to gain Add more talents and exotics that are unique and have counter play potential Specialization revamp?? Bring holster talents back to weapons All this would add more variety to the game and keep players playing the game from the very start, especially for PVP Buff third attributes on guns like make the 5% extra rpm 10% instead to compete with dmg to armor and targets out of cover Make pve more fun and engaging to make the grind better Make pvp a little more balanced Ranked mode conflict

[@qSilenceOne]

As a dedicated player of The Division 2, I'm passionate about pushing my gear and skills to their limits. However, I feel that the current endgame content doesn't offer the level of challenge and variety that many of us crave. Here's my suggestion to enhance our experience: 1. Introduce Legendary Raids and Missions: Current Situation: The game primarily relies on loot rather than challenging content to keep players engaged. Suggestion: Implement Legendary difficulty for raids, incursions, and missions. This would provide a much-needed challenge and give players a reason to optimize and tweak their gear continuously. 2. Add More Incursions and Raids: Current Situation: The variety of endgame content is limited, making it repetitive over time. Suggestion: Bring in more incursions and raids from The Division 1 into The Division 2. These can be direct copies or slightly modified versions. This would add variety and reduce development time. 3. Introduce Resistance Mode from The Division 1: Current Situation: Players with optimized builds find the current content too easy. Suggestion: Add a mode similar to Resistance from The Division 1. In Resistance, the challenge increases with each wave, motivating players to continually improve their builds to reach higher levels. This mode would perfectly utilize the diverse builds available in The Division 2. 4. Implement Difficulty Scaling and Directives: Current Situation: Difficulty scaling is limited and often not challenging enough for top-tier players. Suggestion: Allow players to scale the difficulty of raids and missions from Normal all the way to Heroic, with additional directives to make them even harder. This would cater to different skill levels and keep content fresh and engaging. Conclusion: By implementing these changes, The Division 2 can offer a richer, more challenging experience that keeps players engaged long-term. The game has immense potential, and with these enhancements, we can fully utilize our gear and skills to their fullest extent. Let's push for a game that challenges us and keeps us coming back for more.

[@ROPUTO]

Imagine Acost'as backpack becoming meta if this happens

[@fountedakis]

Would make a few exotics more interesting. Double crits on catharsis, sawyers and tardigrade. Haste and status on vile and btsu gloves. But if they do that they need to increase the drop rate slightly

[@LeslieAJr]

I want talents to be on more than just the chest piece and backpack that will really make theory crafting builds and a loot grind exciting

[@2pay22]

I think when you role an exotic gear piece it won’t change those minor attributes from blue to red or vice versa, example if you re roll coyotes mask those minor attribute may only be weapon handling or headshot, but won’t retool to a blue ie armor regen. That’s what I think from what I’ve noticed

[@RogueGold]

Interesting, I didn't get to try it myself on the PTS so not sure. But I'll keep that in mind 👍

[@Ghost-_-Phantom3]

Just curious, what shotgun are you using with your hunters fury build? It kicks ass lol

[@RogueGold]

It's the "Enforcer" Named Super 90, came as a pre-order bonus for Warlords of New York. You can get the same perfected Pummel talent on the "Tsunami" as well 👍

[@Ghost-_-Phantom3]

@@RogueGold thanks appreciate

[@grumpyoldman6503]

I think revamping crap talents and exotics would have more build bang for the buck in terms of longevity vs re-rolling exotic secondaries (or even primary cores). Sacrum Imperium and Mosquito are always going to be junk, even if I can change the 3rd stat on them, just sayin'. Likewise, Mad Bomber could be tweaked to make grenades a relevant build or Reassigned made to actually be relevant vs. obliterate or glass cannon. More slot competition makes for more build variety.

[@navytexan]

I would like to see them fix the no blueprint available from the White house for the Vindicator after purchasing the gun from the vender. I have tried everything even completely reloading the game and nothing works.

[@RogueGold]

I believe they're aware of the issue, but will try and follow up with it

[@MemoriesLP]

I already dont have enough space, I already scrap good gear I could have. I dont want to hold multiple exotics lol Anyway... I feel like its part of the identity of an exotic weapon/gear to have those specific attributes. Forcing us to find ways to make builds work based on the stats of an exotic gear is also part of the build strategy. For example, the Catharsys mask can be used on a DPS build, but you sacrifice damage to use it and you need someone to heal you. So, what a player should probably do is make a self healing dps build. After this updated you are asking for, 90% of players will want it with crit chance and crit damage, and there you go... you actually decrease the creativity and build variety. How many people run self healing dps builds? Not many... Still... the change might be better in general, I just think it is a bit sad to see some stuff lose part of their identity. I think removing mod colors for a gear piece was a really good change, but I think it was just amazing to see Golan coming with core blue, but the mod was yellow, and its named backpack was wicked, and first bonus set was Status Effect. It was the most hybrid shit ever, the game was asking for hybrids since the expansion released! It was a defensive gear with status effect. Now, you can easily use one piece of it to be a full yellow piece used status effect builds. Again... the change was for the best, but I still like the old version.

@@grumpyoldman6503 yeah it's been like this since a long time, maybe it's just too difficult and will break the whole game, I dunno lol

[@paulocarvalho1982]

I've said before, the current system for Exotics is a HUGE piece of shit! You are absolutely right, even the weapons, having just the 3rd attribute variable, and DtTOoC being the absolute best in 95%+ of the time, and then simply being able to re roll them, made Exotic drops boring as f***! I believe weapons (even High Ends) should "loose" their 3rd attribute, and have it replaced with 2 tier of Talents, so we would have T1 Talents, that would be the "handling" attributes that we have now, the T2 Talents, that would be the "damage" 3rd attributes that we have now, and the T3 Talents would be the current Talent pool, and the fixed Exotic Talents. All Exotic Gear should drop with completely random attributes. Then the reconfigure blueprints should only work to bring any Exotic item into the pre determined design, instead of creating a random new piece. This way, Exotic drops would actually be interesting and important, but we would have a way to turn an Exotic into the "normal" version of it. Imagine someone grind the Coyote's Mask for hundreds of hours, and it drops with Skill Tier, Health and Weapon Handling... I understand that this change would be "hard" to implement (into the weapons at least), but this would go a long way to make Exotics exciting again.

[@Skippyflapjacks]

If I’m getting more build options we are gonna need our inventory and stashed space doubled at the bare minimum

[@jorsinorphaeus]

I am having a hard time with anyone seeing a loot pool change like this, in this type of game, isn’t anything but upside. Does there need to be more than this? Sure. But I am still here for it.

Honestly i just want more exotic LMGs or new gunner special gun like instead of a mini gun give us a .50 M2 machine gun and maybe a exotic M60 with talent like true patriot or a extreme large belt with cracked to 11 rate of fire or have explosive rounds have it called the freedom call or freedom blast

[@russellcharlton7814]

Also you can tell the PvP players in PvE. Its the way they move. PvE players tend to stand and shoot, PvP players not so much.

[@torch917]

One thing to mention...re-rolling exotic gear items replaces attributes with like attributes. Meaning red gets replaced with red, blue gets replaced with blue, & yellow gets replaced with yellow (from what I've heard). So all red everything...sorry to dash your hopes.

[@maximum_effort1]

On the PTS it seemed to only allow you to swap with attributes of the same color. So if you had a piece of exotic armor with one blue and one red attribute, for example, every time you rerolled it, it would always give you one random blue attribute and one random red attribute. Not sure if that was intended or final but I think it was worth noting.

[@iU9LY]

i hope so, the more diversity the better imo. Especially with the watch being gone in conflict, this would help gain a little of those stats back and open the door to interesting combinations. With heartlands being cancelled this is the bread winner for ubisoft so they need to make it last for at least another 2-3 years.

[@nelsonsantos2226]

Sup rogue 👍👍👋

[@RogueGold]

Yo!

[@Elmntsktr]

The only people who would really benefit from this change though would be pvp players. They’re locked the way they are because they were intended to be used for certain play styles/roles (healer, dps, and tank). Sure…opening them up like that would allow for more creative builds, but then the exotics themselves would lose their meaning and what their intended purpose was. The BTSU gloves were meant for healer builds. If you randomize the stats or allow them the change then you change what the original intent was the gloves. And all the examples you listed of the different gear pieces you would change were all related to PvP. I’ve always believed the game needed more structure and dedicated roles and less fluidity, but the game is at the end of it’s life so they’re going to do whatever to keep people playing.

[@gokyuzu1484]

Its fine to give exotic armor a random stats this also can make sawyer kneepads better than cayote. Problem is exotic and exotic component drop rates are a joke and how much you need them Fully upgrading a set requires more than 300 exotic compoents alone best farm is in dz for it and in an hour you can barely get 10-15 countdown's drop rates from exotics is less than %1 and getting exotic cashe takes 20 minute so you can barely get 3 exotic out of there. In summery you need to farm dz minimum 20 hours to fully upgrade your gears and you need to farm minimum 100 hour for the countdown. You see its a complete joke.

[@colinmartindale7757]

Nice video. However if you don’t grind pvp for exotic components you’re stuck with the roles you get. I used 20 components to roll damage to targets on my lady death and kept flipping between health dmg and crit dmg. Random my ass

[@lucassilverblade913]

I'm on the fence about this potential change. If I can target specific attributes including the core attribute, and reroll those, or only one, then I'd be ok with it, but for every attribute including the core to be randomized in each reroll...hard pass

The side effect to this is that It also dilutes the loot pool by a lot. Imagine farming for Coyote's Mask and keep getting yellow/blue rolls on it. Something to think about.

[@RogueGold]

Personally I prefer the variety, but I'm sure some would rather it remain as-is now

[@Fiffelito]

I agree, getting a coyote with random crap on it is going to suck. There's only really 4 items worth changing stats on; BTSU gloves (skill dmg or status effects), Catharsis mask (imagine this with red core + CHC/CHD), Tardigrade (again CHC+CHD), And Vile (haz prot -> CHC/Skill haste). And that's it, that's the only 4 items worth switching on, the rest of the items are going to be worse off if you mess with them (or just not worth using no matter what i.e. imperial dynasty, shocker punch, rugged gauntlets). One might be tempted to say "red sawyer's" but no, it's a dud if ones does the math, a "noob trap" if you'd want to phrase it as such, just as ninja bike backpack. There's 12 minor attributes, so sure, let's keep the DEFAULT attributes as is and then let us reconfigure the piece until we get the ones we want. I really don't want a random stat on gunslingers holster, cyote's mask, bloody knuckles.

[@grumpyoldman6503]

Concur it's a mess of RNG if they go this way. Already bad with guns but on gear too... ugh. Reconfigure? OK. Reroll completely like on guns? No ty.

[@paulocarvalho1982]

Change the Reconfigure Blueprints, so they revert the Exotic to the "pre set" version of it, that way we get excited for Exotic drops again, but if we only get, for example, ONE Coyote's Mask, and it comes with terrible atributes, we can just reconfigure it to the "normal" attributes.

[@piggymaster3209]

It should remain as is and I hope it does

[@S4BRETOOTH]

I like this idea, and I would love it if they take inspiration from games that do loot well like Path of Exile or Grim Dawn (loot that enables new builds amping or modifying skills), or even inspiration from Warframe and how they do the collecting resources to build items, that would fit very well on the Div. But before any change, is imperative that they give us a solution for the lack of inventory/storage space.

Can confirm no PTS Phase 2 is coming. Which doesn't surprise me at all, it's the same pattern they had for previous Seasons where the PTS was only testing new gear (Season 11 had only 1 phase, for example).

[@Argent_99]

Yeah, I want a triple red BDSU gloves. 😂 That said, completely unlocking the exotics attributes is effectively placating veteran players at the expense of new players and I sorta don’t think that’s the best way forward. Just because you (and I, for that matter) have a (on every character…) coyote mask doesn’t mean that future players will be so lucky right off the bat and the idea of endlessly running countdown or summit to get that unicorn triple red coyote is bound to frustrate a lot of people straight into uninstalling. So if they go forward with this change, the player base will likely change. I’m not gonna get into whether this is good or bad, but in terms of overall engagement, raising the bar of entry is a bit worrisome to me. I think the sensible compromise is to just unlock the third attribute, which will allow people to customize their exotics somewhat if need be with out basically diluting the exotic loot pool into something resembling the pacific ocean. The other option would be that we would be allowed to re-roll two attributes on exotics (but not on rare or set pieces, cuz…well, exotics.) that would sweep all of the above off the table and it could create some interesting build choices, especially if the 7th slot stuff goes the way I fervently hope it does.

[@RogueGold]

Conversely, I would argue that the current Exotic and general loot structure in the game has already had a pretty detrimental effect on veteran retention and engagement. I know more than a handful of longtime Division players who rarely play now, if ever, because of how easy and quick it is to acquire anything you want, and how constrictive some of the systems are with creativity. With the presence of content like Countdown, and the general structure of Gear 2.0, I think the game already caters towards the casual audience quite a bit. That said- I have no clue how impactful that effect is on the game versus the potential effect of doing something like this with Exotic armor pieces, but something worth considering I think. Well laid-out thoughts and ideas though, I appreciate it!

The Spec Revamp was canceled, but apparently some of its proposed changes might still come about in some form 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXPEiGZurdWEsM0si=bO7zW7i8mIWIiCWK

My man... anyone who's been playing div 2 for 4 years+ is elitist. Aka, 90% of us

[@RogueGold]

😂 True!

[@Pit940d]

what's the name sleeveless outfit are you wearing?

[@RogueGold]

It's the Agent Kelso uniform that was in the store recently 👍

[@MountainHigh1984]

Yes i think its a great idea for sure.

[@RogueGold]

👍

[@SCarter02767]

Great, now I'll have to have 2 of a few exotics...lol ...can we have more stash space or even another character slot!?

[@geygeyedit]

Dmg to target out of cover is soooooo boring nowadays

[@RogueGold]

The Devs did note that they're aware of its strength in that attribute slot, and will probably make changes 👍

Why you keep saying year 6 when it’s just season 4?

[@RogueGold]

Year 5 Season 4 is no longer happening. They changed the slate of Seasons back in December when they announced some delays. Year 6 Season 1 begins on June 11th 👉 kzbin.info/www/bejne/iGS0gqltnptgb68si=3K0bEXV8YPUzrndC

You can only reroll to attributes of the same colour, so Catharsis could have haz pro & explosive resistance for example

[@heathkirk1]

While this does open up more build opportunities it will make exotics components more of a pain. We will need more places to get exotic components. I think something that would help is if they would quit making crappy exotics. the two new ones coming with the next season is a prime example. nothing like new exotics being DOA. that in turn lowers the amount of viable exotics we can play with.

[@RogueGold]

I think the changes to Projects have done a pretty good job at offering more regular and reliable sources of Exotic Components. Do you think they should do more beyond that?

[@heathkirk1]

@@RogueGold agreed. i think more offerings would be nice with this addition. don't get me wrong being able to reroll these is a definite plus but it does not feel good to have a pinch point of exotic components. i would be happy if that currency was obsoleted and funneled into the other resources that would be needed without then lowering the rates we get them. to many games now a days try to make it a pain to do certain things to "rate limit" . this has always been one i didn't like. we are really in need of Div 3 at this point.
