So with the servers shutting down in under an hour for maintenance, I find myself wondering what most people do just before they pull the plug. Do you run into the dark zone and try and rack up as many kills as you can? Do you even get the credit for going rogue afterwards when they bring the servers back online if your timer is still going when they shut things down?

If you're rogue when the servers go down, you'll resume as a rogue when they come back up. Same for manhunt.

The hour before shutdown, DZ becomes the wild west.

Damn straight it is! I just went in solo and in the span of 15 minutes I racked up 2 rogue kills, picked up 7 keys (both from rogues and corpses strewn about the map) and 44k in DZ funds. When I came across 2 separate manhunt parties I figured it was best not to push my luck and got the frack out of there. Damn fun, it was!

Hey servers again down?

I'm having problems with DZ, how to join a tem? Should i start solo in DZ 01 and move up to DZ05-06?

At checkpoints you can simply matchmake to group up. Most players will be looking to use the group as an advance to farm dz5/6 or steal from players lower down.

Servers are down for another 4 hours.

UPDATE: Prior to deployment, it has been found that the patch was unsuccessful and has been delayed. As such, today's maintenance will finish early (approximately 12pm CEST).
This also means that the deployment of the Clear Sky Challenge Mode has been delayed for the time being as well.
We will share more info on when the patch will be deployed and what it contains as soon as we can. Thank you for your patience.

It's going to be 40% Nomad gear lol.

Also I looked up the guy that I had hard time with yesterday...... BXBBA. He's apparently rank#1 in rogue players killed leaderboard.

Clear Sky Challenge Mode and Hotfixes Delayed

https://www.reddit.com/r/thedivision/comments/4m6kaj/state_of_the_game_summary_6216_key_points/

All the fixes that's were supposed to be part of this mornings maintenance did not get deployed due to issues. So the HVT fix and others did not make it, along with Challenge Mode for Clear Sky. With the UI patch being almost 5GB and their own failure to deploy proper fixes during maintenance this is embarrassing.

Xbox One UI patch no longer said to be this week like previously announced and is now TBD.

Hilarious but glad it's finally coming for the Xbox players.

I feel as if the dev team and these community people (hamish etc) aren't on the same page.
I don't get why its so difficult.

Sigh... still no Clear Sky matchmaking teleporting fix... at least with Challenging incoming I'd be able to "reset" the activity before starting.

The cheese I know of is you can wall breach passed the first lot of enemies, then when at the re-stock crate (the one that gives you med packs at the checkpoint) you can wall breach again so you can pick off the enemies without them respawning leaving you a clear run to activate the computer, place the components and then activate the computer again. The boss will drop down and an enemy wave will spawn, you wall breach back out of the area and pick the boss off stopping more enemies respawning, kill the remaining enemies and wall breach for your loot.

There's afew videos popping up on youtube, 1 guy solo'd it in 10 minutes. It isn't really much quicker than doing it with a group tbh but for CM (when it comes!) it would make life easy.

Looks like there's another maintenance scheduled for tonight (Friday 3am EDT) for some of the things they couldn't do last night
Here is the list of changes to be implemented during the maintenance of June 03:

•Fixed a bug where High Value Target daily missions would not reset properly
•Fixed a bug where the final cutscene would only trigger after completing an incursion
•Fixed instances where Mobile Cover could be used to glitch through walls
•Fixed a bug that allowed players to skip parts of the Clear Sky incursion
•Added more kill volumes around Columbus Circle in Clear Sky


Please note that Clear Sky Challenge Mode will not be activated with this maintenance

Im want to make my character more 'tanky', does the higher the armor rating of a blueprint relate to a higher toughness value?

Is there a certain set of 'gear' type that are known for there high toughness value (Sentry, Striker, Predator etc)?

It's random and most of the gear set items are only useful when you start unlocking the 2 and 3 gear set bonuses. One thing I used to do is too quickly dismiss an item because it would look like it would drop my stats, before looking to see if re-calibrating it would give it the potential to be an improvement (usually this means re-rolling for armour or changing the main stat from Electronics to Firearms or Stamina in my case).

How do you start to unlock the 2 and 3 gear set bonuses then?

@lettuce

The more pieces you get of a set the more stats open. Only up to four pieces though. Always equip two of another set to unlock it's first tier of stats.

You have to equip 2, 3 or 4 of the SAME gear set type (Ex: at least 2 pieces of Striker, Sentry's Call, Predator's Mark, etc) at the same time. Each single gear set item doesn't have a built in talent like other gear, so often it'll look like it's a downgrade on your stats. But, if you experiment with adding 2 or 3 of the same type of gear set, then you'll start earning powerful bonuses that up your stats like + headshot damage or + critical damage, etc.

The top level gear (240gs and 204he) have the highest potential stats, a bad (or medium) roll can be worse than a decent roll in lower rated gear (214gs and 182he).

You get the most major attribute armor on Chest, backpacks and holsters. Chests have the highest single base armor stat, so keep an eye out on gear with high natural armor.

You can max out armor without mod slots.

All gear sets are equal, no bonus on striker etc.
