Tom Clancy's The Division

Tom Clancy's The Division

View Stats:
GE ended and drop rate is♥♥♥♥♥
And the drop chance gets worse with every GE that ends if you are looking for a specific set, because classified gear sets just increased in the regular loot pool. It's only fair that the rate at which these drop be increased slightly for everytime these previous GE had ended. Exotics are piling up in my inventory but not a single classified set is completed for me.

Almost everyone I see or play with has at least a classified set now. In the last GE, I've opened over 70 caches and not a single set was completed. Only Alphabridge, something that I don't plan on using, was the closest set to being complete. Now I have to wait till end of next month to get a chance to complete a set, or invest hefty amount of my busy time to GRIND?

"And why don't you have a set when others do? Stop complaining."
Some people don't have a lot of time. How can people like myself enjoy the game when all they experience is misery in the game due to lack of the "latest gadgets" and "other♥♥♥♥♥♥.

What kind of game is this? You want to make this game better, enough with this "Tom Clancy's The Farm". If people get off from this♥♥♥♥♥♥then so be it, I won't cry about it and will gladly participate. But the way things are right now, how the hell am I even supposed to be "competitive" in this game and co-op when I can't even get a damn set going? How can I even bear myself to play with other players?

I spend about a total of 4 to 5 hours per day in this game. With a 3% drop rate from named bosses and hunters, and dark zone ugh I won't even go to that mess, how many days would I have to NOT actually play the game but just grind in order for me to be able to actually play the game?

I feel your pain, I have over 300+ hours played and out of the 14 sets I have 6 completed but none that I feel compelled to play except maybe reclaimer but thats just for group play for groups that need a healer. I have been missing 1 piece from the sets that I want that being striker, nomad and predator. I have grinded resistance and Dz for hours on end to no prevail.

I run into the dz for hopes and finding the pieces I need but no luck and I cant even compete with anyone that goes rogue on me who are 99% of the time rocking 6 piece nomad, striker or pred so I basically have to run away or lose my loot. Yea its frustrating but what can ya do. This is probably the worst game I have ever encountered as far as grinding.

They have stated that the drop rates for classified gear will be tweaked soon-ish, now that all the sets have been released.

The Global Events will all be back again too, before too long...

But... if you could get all the gear you wanted quick and easy, the game would get boring VERY fast.

Best way Ive found is resistance. Get two drops and suicide.

But yeah it sucks, very slim chances to get what you want but you can find nice people that can drop stuff they already have.

Got two striker pieces for my second gear this way yesterday

I don't want the classified sets to be obtained quick and easy. Just slight increase to drop rate to where it's bearable would suffice. Right now, it is HELL. But there must be a balance they can strike to have the game not be repetitive (farming) and not too easy to obtain the sets at the same time. But I must admit that the game IS quite fun and satisfies my shooter fill. So, I would still play the game for few hours everytime I come home from work, even if I had all the sets.

And they should expand the game a bit more. It could use more areas than the piers, as well as new gears, new enemies, and new modes.

you make it sound like not having the classified makes the game impossible... that is just wrong.

I was doing legendary and heroic missions with the old gear... yes it was harder and took more time, but it was doable.

If you don't enjoy playing then stop... if you enjoy the game just play... they will come.
The devs have said they will increase the drop rate soon... but they are in the exotic loot pool and really are "exotic gear". They should not drop too easily.

I was off work the week of the GE bought 35 caches and very disappointed in the drop rate , I did get one set ALPHA BRIGE but very few excotic gear pieces .Last GE in my opinion was not impressive either busted my butt for two pieces to complete a set never got them

As someone already said, the loot drop chances will be increased, but still.... you have to understand that this is Loot bases MMO(ish)RPG, it should never be easy to get good gear.

They need to add something like the Kanai's Cube in Diablo III, where you can convert set pieces to another item within the same set. I have at least 4 classified D3FNC holsters, but no other piece from that set...

This would be a good idea.

4/6 hunter until last day, got 5/6 in last 2 crate
80 cases, tier 1
i think i didnt make it, but the tier 1 reward is the remaining, so 6/6
careless about the other, but i say its not bad
watch me nae nae Feb 1, 2018 @ 6:25am 
I agree with this,
I also wanna say, you can get very good and usable loadouts going without having full classified sets. Just gotta know what you're doing. If you have a ninjabike bag especially, then you're builds can be pretty nasty.

Classifieds have very low drop chance. Every time loot drops, that drop chance hits.

Also, the more pieces you have, the harder it'll be to get the pieces you want and/or need.

Basic statistics.

Exactly the same situation for me, however I have Sentry and Alphabridge complete at least.

Alphabridge is just terrible, sentry only being viable in SOME PvE content. I too feel your frustration.

430 hours played.
