TomCat Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 damn mines glitched Me and @skillzdadirecta just did the mission but my level board says i still need to do it. SMH skillz joined my game so it should have worked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom631 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 helped my buddy last night who was only level 10 run a few missions - everything i got was like gear score 188-250. makes it tough to want to help him level faster when its just a waste of my time. i even leveled up and got a field cache and the cache was 250. sucks. @JPDunks4 @skillzdadirecta not sure i can hang with you yet, but any interest in running some CP tonight? i could use your shitty 425+ gear!

Slug Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 So what's everyone's preferred weapon kits? For me it's Slot 1 LMG, Slot 2 Sniper, Slot 3 Shotgun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shotgun 3. Sawed off shotgun But I go with whatever I have that’s the highest level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JPDunks4 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 Yes do not open a cache if your in a friends game that’s lower level. Learned that the hard way. I dropped a bunch of 450 gear for Tomcat yesterday when he had just hit 30. It’s pretty easy to level up a friend just by having them join your game for a bit.

I tried to have him join my game, but it didn't allow him. sent an invite and the "accept" button or whatever was greyed out. also - yall got any more of that 450 gear?

atom631 Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 as for my preference of guns: Slot 1 is either a Rifle or Assault Rifle Slot 2 is my LMG Slot 3 is whatever has the highest gear score I will swap out the Rifle/AR for a sniper if its that type of mission or CP.

JPDunks4 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 I dint know what half the stuff you’re talking about is. How do you get the Exotic stuff? Like I need 250 of something to craft the 2 Exotic Blueprints I have. Is that what you’re referring to. I gavejt googled any info on the game so I feel like I maybe missing a lot. Also Lvl 4 Checkpoints are just dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atom631 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 when do exotics drop? and how many of them are there in the game? also - something i realized was that there are no more green drops in D2. i guess since most high-end gear are part of a set they did away with it. makes sense. i tried the daily hard mission, which happened to be a stronghold. I joined in at 398 and other dudes were 420-445. We got absolutely smoked. I wound up quitting bc it was just ridiculous. I did manage to get a few pieces that bumped me to like 402. I dont even really know what to do at this point to get above 425 to try Tidal Basin. I was thinking of replaying story missions on hard. Or maybe capture more control points.

JPDunks4 Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 The Brand Sets have basic bonus’s, where as Gear Sets I’d expect will be a little more unique and cool bonus stats for having a set. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elbobo Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 that 2 piece set of restoring armor on a kill is an absolute necessity for me I'm level 28 with a lot of pre-endgame content left to go. I would hit 30 easily just by doing sidequests Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hit 30 easily just by doing sidequests you can still do all that content in the endgame, it will scale with your level. i just focused on control points, projects and main missions. i think i did maybe 3-4 side missions from 1-30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both the exotic smg and exotic pistol require you to obtain parts and blueprints from faction chests and missions. I have the exotic pistol and I'm halfway through getting all the stuff for the exotic smg. I haven't gotten the exotic shotgun or rifle yet, however. so no random exotic drops?

A third one comes from opening faction chests and a fourth one comes from doing specific missions. I get it, but thats not entirely random. Random would be that it could come from anything or anyone.

I'm at 451 now and haven't done a single daily mission or challenging mission. I do mostly checkpoints, supply drops and some DZ and most of my drops now are 450. The only time I get anything above 450 seems to be from The DZ or proficiency caches when you level up. There's so much content in the game now and so much to explore that I don't see myself redoing a lot of missions like in the first game. I'm finding there's a lot of ways to get loot.

I know it wont be a problem on xbox, but if there is a ton of griefing Im not going in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The blueprints from those projects and what you get from level 3 control points are much better than what you would find from vendors. They still max out at GS 440 though right, even with the most upgaded Bench? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biggie Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Okay question. When I find say a better weapon or armor piece is it smart to equip it simply because it’s a higher level? Like if I have a holster that’s level 16 and pink but I find a level 17 that’s green should I always go with the higher level versus which one has better perks?

If Risen, Fable, and Dark Souls had a mean baby, this would be that game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
