The Division 2: How to Make a Watch Mule (2024 Edition)

The Division 2 Watch Mule! This video is a guide to creating a watch mule in 2024. A watch mule is a term used by players when creating new characters to take advantage of how the watch level mechanics work. With these mechanics you are able to give yourself an infinite amount of resources to help optimize builds and to work on Expertise. I explain everything you need to know in this video.

Quicker way is to do the missions in NY. A level 40 player selects Story Mode with 5 directives. It will give you 800,000+ xp. I took two 30 players into Stranded Tanker and they got 1 million xp at level 37. For some reason it gives more xp and it's quicker than running challenging or heroic.

[@dw4897]

If you boost into ny you will not have projects until you get pass keener, if you boost into dc you will have your weekly projects, from 30 to 40. If you keep side missions for after watch you will be able to run them with directives. Bounties drop where side missions are, so bounties with only drop in done side missions areas.

[@ShaneMcGrath.]

If you are playing solo like me, You should save the best gear you find on the mule runs for next run, Add mods etc etc I basically have gear with near max crit chance/damage stats for every few new levels up to 40, Blast through it even doing Keener as soon as I pop lvl 40 just put on LMG heartbreaker set and use Pestilence, He can hide behind cover all he wants as his health bar goes to zero. Edit: Make sure to favourite those lvl 30+ max gear pieces you build up to max so you don't end up deleting them for next mule run whenever you do it whether that's weeks, months or a year later.

[@edwinchw]

key take away from this is "MUST HAVE FRIEND" with good char so it can boost you lol. but where to find people or still play this game?

[@Rincewind36]

2000 premium credits (19,99€)i don't know if it will be permanently unlocked afterwards or you have to buy it everytime, as long as you don't have the expansion. But if you have to buy it everytime, it's cheaper to just buy the Expansion and boost however much you want. WoN is on sale until 07/25/24 (24.07.2024) for 7,50€.

[@SaltandPepperX]

Invaded is the best way for sure ;-)

[@AModestMouse]

It's great for getting through the expertise levels. And yes it is definitely a legitimate mechanic in the game. If anything it's an earned benefit. The more you grind, more time and energy put in...all the less you'll have to in the future.(Kind of like the opposite of diminishing returns 😋)

[@digitaldogs233]

Good vid. I tend to run solo so the dz option would suit me. Haven't done a mule for ages but my expertise is going slow so probably a good idea at this point. ✌️👍🏻

[@AZ-dj1ni]

I did that, DZ Run is very lucrative, you get XP, DZ Credit and Exotic component, and when you reach LV40, Materials. I was thinking of trying Descent run for NSA credit and EXP but I'm terrible there🤣🤣 The most tedious part was after the one endgame, my LV30 gear became Lv29. I had to build a new lv31 set and I still need Memento lv31🤣

[@digitaldogs233]

@@AZ-dj1ni Rng can be a like trying to get a needle in a haystack, but it will come, keep on that grind. And as for Descendent, man i have no patience for that. I always get the shield guys, descent hates me lol.

[@AZ-dj1ni]

​@@digitaldogs233yesterday I got 2 exotic cache, 1 from Danny and 1 from SHD protect On both give the sweet dream😭 Time to continue the Lv31 exotic farm with the SHD protect... But you know another form to get a exotic cache except from the SHD and Danny?

[@AZ-dj1ni]

​@@digitaldogs233I can pass the loop 4, and my goal it just kill the Nemesis🤣😭

[@miccullen]

@@AZ-dj1ni Memento @ 29 still works a treat through to 40 - my LVL30 Memento and Scorpio were both made into LVL29 and they both carry through to 40 no issues at all

[@WhoCaresGamingIsDeadCuzOfAI]

I have many division 1 & 2 accounts (7-10) so i just run 3 skill builds (on 3 accounts) setem all up and finish missions,,

[@SG5fzZ]

personally i still prefer doing solo WONY since i just refuse to go in the dark zone and for wony your no longer required to start/finish keeners mission (which lowers the average from 5h to about 3 1/2hs)but for some reason you dont get the projects even after logging out and in again so i think that might be a bug

[@ianmcdonald3053]

Yeah, once i did keeners mission i got the projects.

[@Born2Elite]

See G I said you could walk through the red smoke without taking damage when you were streaming your solo hardcore play through haha.

[@dw4897]

For the longest time, I did not know there was a path around the red smoke.

[@richardpapin24]

What is the minimum level that would be beneficial for a watch mule

[@GCROCK]

Good question, I would aim for 2000 as that would give you 1200 points to play with. But even before that can work for getting a build optimized with about 800 points to play with. I have done mules at just 1500 watch level before now

[@altie]

That's a good question and I concur with GCs answer. 2k is the best. I'm 4k now and any mules I create will give me boatloads of resources.

[@WhoCaresGamingIsDeadCuzOfAI]

but the New agents DO NOT GET THE SAME XP AS THE END GAME AGENTS ACCOUNTS\... NOT FAIR!!!! WE SHOULD GET THE SAME XP WHETHER UR LEVEL 30 or 40

[@geoffbucks5803]

Hi GC love all your videos thank you for all the time and dedication you give us all back to help us improve. I have two questions for you - 1. On a couple of occasions now, ive run NY, GOT THE WATCH, returned to DC, spent my watch scavenger points then I go to INYA to buy the shared materials - ONLY TO DISCOVER THERES NO SHARED MATERIALS OR BLUEPRINTS THERE FOR ME TO BUY. 2. my latest new agent completed NY got the watch etc... but my crafting bench is only on superior - it does say i can upgrade bench which i have done loads of times using resources and millions of credits yet no sign of the bench going to high end - do you or your viewers have any solutions to these problems please Or is this something i need to ask Ubisoft support about thank you

[@GCROCK]

Hey, thanks for the words. In regards to the shared blueprints that is new to me, no idea why they wouldn't show. But in regards to the crafting station, this is a known bug currently and they are working on fix for the next update they do 👍

[@andbntng4382]

Im on pc, I cant use character booster because the add-ons tab is broken. Im not sure if this happened to others

[@jeeploggernz2289]

I start a character then jam Decent

[@DilPPickles]

Wouldn’t it be more efficient for watch points to buy credits in scavenging then buy skill mods and delete them for printer filament?

[@GCROCK]

Probably yes! But then I guess you would have to time how long that takes you compared to how long it takes you to get another level 40 toon

[@DilPPickles]

@@GCROCK It definitely takes way more time lol. I spent 5.5 hours after 2 WONYs to go from expertise 21-26.

[@BlazingArrowzxD]

If you already have a mule created and you level up, does every character still level up their SHD and get a scavenging point?

[@GCROCK]

Yes they do 👍👍

[@lesleygarrett4223]

get to L30, stay in DC, get a L40 friend to take you through a dozen or so heroic bounties with all directives, job done :)

[@Rohit-qt2ve]

i created a mule but im stuck at SHD level 0 after reaching 40. Is it a known bug or only for me?

[@GCROCK]

If you relog it should fix it 👍 It did before today's patch anyway

[@Rohit-qt2ve]

@@GCROCK Nope. The latest patch says you need to do a side mission to unlock the watch after reaching 40. Talk to the Quartermaster, and then it will be unlocked.

[@GCROCK]

@@Rohit-qt2ve Ah, speak with the quartermaster at the Boo in DC

[@Adryan_85]

Only 530.000 xp? With a friend who is lvl 40 you can do open world activities like Propaganda broadcast on Heroic with 5 directives and gain 489.000 xp or Executions and gain 519.000 xp all in just a few minutes.

[@GCROCK]

Doesnt work like that until you are level 40. Open world activities are very low xp
