Rouges with fire rounds in a timed mission where they have like 6x the health and damage .... fucking genius implementation that then when you do fight them for fucking 20 minutes because they have 63 health bars worth of hp and armor with kits you get fucking yellows please change this it's insane
Todays Escalation Loot, cheers to the lads in discord/FB for sharing this.
I know it was in TD1 but I’ve never seen it on the list till just now. Is this available or this one of those things that’ll release later?
Thank God it wasn't my tokens but THIS is why I now check builds if I'm hosting
Battle for Brooklyn 1 Year Celebration https://www.ubisoft.com/en-au/game/the-division/the-division-2/news-updates/40NvrweUD4Fon7HVS1zetr
Agents, it has been one year since we returned to Brooklyn, and we are marking the occasion with a special in-game celebration available across Brooklyn, New York, and Washington, D.C.
Battle for Brooklyn 1 Year Celebration
The Brooklyn Celebration Event Pass will be available from May 21 through June 4.
All Agents can earn free rewards, with the option to unlock additional premium rewards for 1000 VC. Progress is tied to regular play. Earn Season XP to move through the Event Pass and use Global Event Stars to speed things up.
The reward lineup features outfits inspired by familiar faces and factions tied to New York and Brooklyn.
Free Track:
Premium Track:
Available from May 26 through June 4, Corrosive Shell is a new Global Event built around Status Effects, explosive reactions, and maintaining momentum.
During the event, hostile factions are protected by a volatile chemical plating known as a Corrosive Shell. Enemies protected by the shell will glow with a purple aura and deflect most regular bullet damage, making them much harder to take down through direct fire alone.
To break the shell, hit enemies with Status Effects. Bleed, Burn, Blind, Ensnare, and other Status Effects can all do the trick. Environmental hazards count too, so a nearby fire canister can be just as useful as your own skills, grenades, or gear setup.
Breaking a Corrosive Shell triggers a corrosive blast around the enemy.
This blast applies the Corrosion debuff to everyone caught in its radius, including you. For Agents, Corrosion temporarily lowers max armor until you leave combat. Enemies that survive are set on fire for 6 seconds, and this is your chance to finish them off.
Defeating a corroded enemy during this window grants Corrosive Momentum, a powerful buff that gives you:
Corrosive Momentum lasts for 10 seconds, and defeating another corroded enemy refreshes the buff.
To gain Corrosive Momentum, you need to deliver the finishing blow yourself while the enemy is corroded. If the enemy dies from fire damage, another source, or another player’s kill, you will not receive the buff.
If a shielded enemy survives, their Corrosive Shell will regenerate after 15 seconds.
In co-op, groups can combine Status Effect builds and work together to keep the Corrosive Momentum active.
Corrosive Shell includes a set of optional Global Event challenges.
Six challenges unlock each day for the first four days. Once unlocked, they remain available until the event ends, so by day four all challenge sets will be active at the same time.
You do not need to manually activate or claim them. They progress automatically as you play.
These objectives are optional, but they are a good way to earn additional Global Event Stars. Stars earned from both Ambush and Corrosive Shell can be used at the Seasonal Vendor, progress the Global Event reward track, and contribute to the Brooklyn Celebration Event Pass.
Make it through the Corrosive Shell chaos, and there is a new reward waiting at the end – the Corroded Mask, earned by completing the event track.
While you enjoy the celebration, remember that Brooklyn may not be as quiet as it seems.
Starting May 26, new activity has been detected beneath the city. Agents returning to the area may come face to face with the Phoenix Hunter.
Proceed with caution.

Echo + Paradox on shotgun goes brrr
So I just got this dropped out of an exotic cache and it seems insanely good? But I never see people running it and I honestly wondered how come?
Also do the bonuses it provides you stack? So multiple people running this will give say 120% critical hit damage?
I just got the game and "Battle for Brooklyn" DLC, played till lvl 15 and then skipped to DLC (LVL 40)
Was this a mistake? I dont really know if i should grind to lvl 40 and then DLC or just skip and learn from there.
Just venting, but asking us to do a particular task, in a particular district, with a particular enemy faction, is just… irritating 😠
Especially when it DOES generate Outcast executions - in the district next door lol
I’m not sure if they actually knew this will kill you if stand in front of it.. but I got a good chuckle out of it.
My only real worry is the going full echo as compared to amalgram. Should I go full echo or hybrid?
Edit: I see a lot of comments complaining about the NBB and yes this is intentional cause my aim is the get the absolute most out of the frenzy talent. Three piece UA gives the most mag size bonus in the game and Frenzy heavily depends on mag size. Proto salvo + 1st UA bonus gives addtional fire rate. I have a tipping scales variant of this with overdogs instead and it isnt as effective in escalation as this one. I'm not saying raw DPS its better but im saying real ingame escalation combat this version wins because I can peek (with my large mag and fire rate), destroy, get back into cover.
Looking to proto type one which should I do for a hunters fury build
Lockdown with paradox kinda goes crazy
I've seen a lot of discussion about Tipping Scales vs Striker. Here's my builds, neither of the proto builds are maxed just pickups for now. Gr9 with Frenzy and Ambush Event modifier are active. Builds will also be in the comments.
