Hello Dev's.
Unknown if this has been said or not.
Since the last two updates all the dropped and reward Gear/items and weapons have been of a lower standard.
I'm playing at tier 5 but rewards, gear drops etc, have been from tier 2-4 absolutely nothing higher my gear setting is around 282 and the highest reward/drop etc have been yellow 278 gear and guns around 269, i was getting these in tier 3-4, i should not be getting these in tier 5.
Even if i play any mission in hard or higher i still get normal weak gear or have the reports that play at a higher tier or harder modes you will get top gear been a BIG FAT LIE.
Also when playing in Hard mode in the underground the play changes to extreme/challenging becoming impossible to play at times.
FFS FIX THE SHOOTING THROUGH SOLID OBJECTS, As i get to open the steel doors in underground i'm being shot at and i lose half my health as the NPC's are shooting me through the door before i can open it. (Two years later and this is still an issue you refuse to fix)
Pretty sure you are mistaken.
All of this gear is within the 256+ gear score bracket which is Tier 5.
http://thedivision.wikia.com/wiki/World_Bracket
Tier 1: Fresh Level 30 character at 0 Gear Score. Enemies are level 30.
Tier 2: Gear score 182-203. Enemies are level 31.
Tier 3: Gear Score 204-228. Enemies are level 32.
Tier 4: Gear Score 229-256. Enemies are level 33.
Tier 5: Added in Update 1.8. Gear Score 256+. Enemies are level 34.
Hi sangersss.
Thanks, i do know that about that & your info, but before the last 2 updates i was getting gear ratting of 280-290+ in green with the odd brown named gear worth a keep, but now i only see 50% yellow highest 280 and 30% purple up to 269 and 20% blue at up to 260+ with a rear grown gear, as fore any green gear not worth the bother and all i'm doing it scrapping/selling.
I seeing other player with gear sets over 290+ and i think over 2000 stat rate the number by their name/the one i see bottom right of screen when i start, mine i cant get over 1800+ i have calibrated all i can.
It's just that since to updates all item/gear have been so low and not worth the fight to get then, like getting blue items in tier 5 whats that about i weren't getting them in tire 3 before updates.
I've even started a new game every thing was fine up to level 30 then nothing worth the play, i've tried the DZ but every time i steep through the door i'm killed by the trolling cheating scum hue think it's funny to be a rogue agent, last laugh on them i have nothing worth their troll, so i stay out of DZ.
That number on bottom right of screen when you start the game has nothing to do with stats, thats your commendation score. You can increase that number by completing all the different commendation challenges under the Dossier section of menu. As far as gear dropping in World Tier 5 its the gear score is completely RNG from 256 and up. Those other players you see with 290+ gear score are wearing a 6 piece classified set with max calibration, or close to max.
Hi all and Thanks.
Though the game had not had the shooting through solids fixed from release date the Dev's lied then and still do, and i have no hope for any fixes in the new D2.
Yes i do release roller mines at doors i suspect i'll get shot at, still this should not happen and support will deny this is still happening.
I'd expect that some gear dropped/grated would be higher than 280 but none at all.
Another big lie is that you were to get Barret's vest in the lexington center, after well over a 100-150+ trys either hard/challenging Barret has no drop the vest once, i have got it from a boss in the underground way back before the last 2 updates and it's very weak i've had blue gear stronger than that.
There was suppose to be a daily drop of special gear/items, it only happens in PTS play though we were told this would be in the 1.2 or 1.3 patches, never happened.
Anyway thanks for info i guess this will go no where and the lies will still be said with every update as well as the shooting through solid will never get fixed, i'm off to the underground the only place in the game that's any good.
High End (Gold), Exotic (Brown) and Non-Classified Gear Set (Teal) gear only goes up to 286. Anything higher has to be a Classified Gear Set item (Teal with a folder icon). There is no need to bother with any Purple gear except for Gear Mods since they roll with different attributes than you can get with High End Gear Mods - Bleed Resistance, Damage to Elites, Shock Resistance, Ammo Capacity, Disrupt Resistance etc.Originally Posted by Jessa246 Go to original post
The 2000 or whatever number is your Commendation. It has nothing to do with gear. To increase this number you have to go to your dossier and complete game objectives.Originally Posted by Jessa246 Go to original post
Deconstruct all blue and purple items. You may need those lower level parts when there are daily objectives to craft higher level parts.Originally Posted by Jessa246 Go to original post
The DZ is brutal for new players and solo players. Here are some tips on how to survive: https://forums.ubi.com/showthread.ph...or-new-playersOriginally Posted by Jessa246 Go to original post
This use to be the case before they made it easier to get Exotics. If you want the Barrett's chest, complete Legendary Missions and Heroic Incursions. Each guarantees an Exotic cache and the end bosses or hunters have a chance to drop them too. Most players now have most of the Exotics they need and especially the Barrett's chest so it's very likely that another player will drop that for you. I'm almost certain you will get at least one if you play all the Legendary Missions and Heroic Incursions in one week.Originally Posted by Jessa246 Go to original post
You can also get an Exotic from the Weekly Assignment cache. There are three of these.
If you have the season pass there is a bi-monthly supply drop in the open world / light zone. There are periodic supply drops in the dark zone - literally happens every hour or so. I've been playing since the Alpha and I don't know of any other types of "daily drops of special gear/items".Originally Posted by Jessa246 Go to original post
There's are lots of inconsistencies in what you have stated in your comments. I think you are getting second hand information from other players. Get your info from the source - there is a weekly State-of-the-Game livestream / podcast run by Massive and you can read patch notes for each update.
Hi i have watched the State-of-the-Game it's always old news and i've already got the info from what i see in the games news pages way before the vid release and after some time of dibble about nothing they finely get to the point.Originally Posted by Sangersss Go to original post
Mostly i get my info on what i see in the game as i play and by the games blogger vids on any up date, and what the Dev's say about a update patches is not what we get.
As i said before the last 2 updates i regularly got higher stat gear 280-290+ now nothing close even when i play a challenging mission the highest have been 280 gold, 278 green plenty of purple/blues as high as they go so stop fudging around telling me it's this or that we should not get gear 2 tiers lower than the tier we're in.
