did some DZ and got to DZ rank 10 pretty quick. didn't see a single other player the whole time. got some purples and extracted them and then left.

Every time I try the gankzone I die a horrible death to some troll waiting for me to engage 6 AI then kills me. Like I thought in Beta. The DZs mechanics are annoying.
 
been farming all night. hospital and now the police academy. picked up the LIberator gun. pretty nice.

I really wasn't sure that I would like this game, but it's pretty cool.

chfire is my player name, if anyone wants to add me.

Hey AT-Div! I've been playing this and enjoying it so far, minus all the little quirks and bugs that come with. It really is a graphically beautiful game and I'm surprised how much I enjoy the visuals and ambiance. The lighting is just outstanding.

I'm at 21/20 now and waiting for my brother to catch up to me so I can finish the storyline/missions with him. For now I'm just farming the DZ for loots.

Anyone feel free to add me on uplay: pandem_nium.

I generally use Curse while playing to have a more reliable private voice chat, as well.

Maybe we can get the OP to edit the top post to include everyone's handle here?
 
bummer, what are they changing?

edit: nm just read the changelog, not a huge change. can still do challenge modes for farming?

can't farm hospital or russian consulate anymore.

i was farming police academy last night so that should still be good to go. i don't know any other farming exploits but that's cause i'm a noob 🙂
 
I have 10 HE weapons, since I got them I've melted so many purples, especially during Hornet runs, it's a minor miracle I stopped to take a closer look at this M4:

The rarity of HE Division tech compared to all other in game items is suspicious, Ubi may make a $ consumable since game of chance is involved, MMO style.

I teamed up regularly for division tech DZ hunts and we gave up after a week. Between already looted chests and the frequency of, at this point useless blue and green division tech drops, HE tech takes the longest by far to acquire.
 
Put a serious dent in the time played race last night.

Was busy trying to fix my computers so didn't log in till after 11. Played about 30 minutes and then fell asleep. Just noticed the game was still running so a good 14+ hours added 🙂

😀 added a good 10 hours last night while sleeping as well
 
Ok so i fired up the game today only to receive a warning saying "your account has been suspended due to multiple failed attempts" and to wait or reset password. It's funny cos i never even type in my password since it's saved. Which means someone else tried to hack into my account which seems highly unlikely cos i'm just level 10. So i reset my password through the uplay website and now it says the account is still suspended and that i have to come back later. Has this ever happened to any of you? I've seen a lot of disgruntled customers venting out on the uplay forums but no possible solution other than to wait it out. Could be hours, could be a day. How silly is this?
 
The wife and I are looking for people interested in incursions or any game modes for that matter. The more friends the better. I run a 175k dps, 55khp (armor capped) build while she runs a smart cover/support station elec build. Uplay: nurturedhate

is there a good place or way to farm solo?

I feel like I am not really progressing much right now.

I have about 83k DPS, 83k HP, and 9k SP. I see people talking about having stats like twice as high and have no idea how they are doing it.

I only have like 3 pieces of HE gear though - Assault rifle, pistol, and pads.

Do I need to try to spec into 1 of the areas more? But I feel that will really gimp me only focusing on 1 stat.
 
lol, just went to the dark zone, got in a fight right outside the entrance with some cleaners. health got low and then all of sudden i died. turns out a player was behind me and killed me.

i didn't even have any DZ gear on me...wtf is the point other than being a troll. he became rogue for nothing...

Start with farming hard modes and work your way up to challenging. Due to a nearly complete lack of weapon diversity/usefulness keep an eye open for a purple M1A. Find an smg or AR with destructive on it to start with. The armor pen works well in pve. Gain phoenix credits, look into crafting the vector or ak74. Decide if you want to be dps (firearms) or support (electronics). And remember, a lot of people who are claiming they have 150k+ dps are stacking accuracy to the moon, accuracy for the most part is a wasted stat and over inflates the dps number. There was a post a page back or so that shows a decent breakdown of what mods you want on what weapons, while not 100% accurate in all scenarios it is a solid place to start.

Break down everything you get. credits are nearly worthless and crafting mats are priceless.

Find some people you enjoy playing with, even one person you know how to play with in a pugged group is better than nothing. We did Lexington on challenging in 8 minutes yesterday with two pugs.

Going into the DZ solo, while functional, is not recommended in any form. Keep your head on a swivel. Keep better track of the human players over the AI. Trying playing in DZ03 over the other zones. You'll find a lot more trolls in DZ01-02 and only high end people in DZ05-06.

when you say farm hard, you mean just keep running the missions? you can't farm the bosses like you could on other places, right?

i bought the liberator blueprint and made that last night. that gave me about an 8k boost in dps.

now i have like 8 phoenix credits. been playing with Pixelsquish alot. I think w do well together.

so i should be focusing on dps or skill points, not health? does no one tank or is health really not important? Seems like I die easily enough with 83k hp, so going less would seem wrong, lol.
