Oh you seem to know the game way better than me. Ive never even seen that stat page. Im playing a tank. Lots of life leech and still probably have my items incorrectly setup. Need to spend a bit of time planning my item slots.

I went along top of tree too. Approaching end of it.

It's from Expeditions that you get at level 30.

Devastator buffs? Nope, thought not. Just a list of nerfs. Shortening expedition timers, great.

Those expedition timers are crazy on a couple of the missions now, good luck doing those at a high level with a Devastator.

Hmm . Trying to do multiplayer with 2 Xbox’s in the same house. One is my ‘home’ Xbox and the other is being used as normal so I can share my game pass. Anyone had any success doing it like this?

Set your home Xbox to the one you’re not using your account on.

The Outriders community has imploded post patch

My main used class is already impotent enough so no nerfs there.

A bit crazy they've concentrated on balancing a PVE game considering it's only a week or so old, given the current stability - my Series X crashes all the time when viewing the menu inside the final area camp. Co op is a mess etc etc.

It's the same with every game of this kind. Every single one without fail has had builds that are supposedly OP get a nerf so that other builds become viable. They never do it the other way, IE buff the dross builds.

Both Xbox’s have my account on , one set to home with my friend logged in on a different profile and the other Xbox just has me logged in. Have I done it wrong? He can share all my stuff and play outriders at the same time as me, just fails on multiplayer

Pretty sure I heard someone say on a stream that there are potential issues if you're both playing the game from the same IP address but haven't seen or read anything confirming this.

To be fair the builds that they nerfed were smashing Expedition Tier 15's with ease, like they were kinda broken and shouldn't have been putting out the damage they were.

It would have been nice to be given buffs to make other alternative skills/trees more rewarding but it seems like only nerfs. I know there are classes struggling right now but with Expeditions the way they are ie. timed everyone goes full damage to get the better rewards and now the 2 classes main damage tree's have been severely nerfed. I mean honestly who would want to go full support/tank/anamoly when they clear so much slower than a full DPS build.

Exactly, their own game pushes for a dps build, yet its hidden behind a mechanic that only appears at the end of the game. Once again we’re the beta testers. It’s worth noting they’ve blanket nerfed all classes. It’s a heavy hammer considering they’ve nerfed classes AND have shortened expedition times. In the meantime the broken elements of their game are still broken. They’ve also removed all replay ability of the world game.

Tried again this morning and seemed to work :rolleyes:

McBain · 9 Apr 2021 at 20:31

Pretty sure I’m done with this now I’ve hit end game, it’s boring.

That being said, server issues aside, I enjoyed the journey. Given it was on Gamepass makes it even sweeter!

I know what you mean, it’s pretty repetitive.

I had a session tonight and pushed through to ET13 which I didn’t expect to get to. Most of my gear is 47/48. I have another week off work with little to do, so will probably drop in and out. I can’t seem to die anymore, so I just need to keep upgrading my dps to push through quickly enough.

Im after tier 3 mods for fortress, 3 earthquake mod and 2 gravity leap mod. Given how rarely legendaries drop I’ll be lucky to get them.

Just an FYI that loads of people are reporting disconnects mid expedition and character inventory wipes since today’s patch. I may give it a miss for a few days.

Something clicked and I went and cleared a section I'd been stuck on for ages. The main mistake I made was playing it like the division but my skills require kills to regen health so I have to play more aggressive

Honestly for then most part only use cover if your about to die and it's really needed. It sounds silly but it rewards you to get into the thick of it with all the health on kills etc and you tend to do better.

Yeah definitely. Also I got an automatic shotgun with the kill/reload bonus so makes sense for me to get up close with that.

I now have 3 legendary weapons but no legendary armor. Annoying lol.

Cryfreeman · 10 Apr 2021 at 12:31

How does Division 2 compare to this? Never given it a go
