One of the coolest features in The Division 2 is how it takes some of the skills we had in the first game and mixes some of them together to create new Skills all together with different Skill Variants. One of the most useful of these is definitely the Hive, which can be used for not only healing purposes, but also for offensive ones as well. This guide will explain just how you can use the four Skill Variants for the Hive Skill.

How To Use The Hive Skills

The Division 2 Side Slot Mods

The LDs: Click the link For Utility Slot Sidearms Extended and read through it and you'll see. I really want to use this mod but finding a conflict issue with Highlander as I have 35 mods that rely on the original and can't use the BETA in place of it for them and alternative launcher is identifying it as a duplicated mod. As previously mentioned in our Division 2 Beginner’s Guide, The Weapon Mod system in The Division 2 is quite easy to learn because once you’ve crafted a certain Weapon Mod you’ll have it for the whole duration of your playthrough. Weapons can have several different attachments: Scopes, Muzzles, Underbarrels and Magazines. As of right now, there are two main means by which players can unlock Division 2 mods. The first one is by heading to your Base of Operations and talking to the Quartermaster about Perks.

You only have a certain number of slots for each gear piece too, so you may need to chop and change what mods you use. The Division 2 Gear Score Recalibration The Division 2 gear score also lets.

There were a number of different healing skills available in the first game, with the Hive taking over as the main healing option outside of Armor Kits in The Division 2. The Restorer Hive Skill Variant allows you to throw a little device that will then use mini-drones to heal the armor on you or your teammates that are within the radius shown by a green circle. This will continually repair armor until the timer is up, making it a very good option to keep your armor in tact against a group of enemies.

Instead of outright healing your armor, the Reviver Hive Skill Variant does just what the name sounds like. Just like the Restorer, the Reviver is set within a certain radius from where you drop it and will heal teammates within that zone. If they are within this range, you can manually have the mini-drones revive them, or you can hold down the button you have the Hive equipped to charge the drones to give the teammate more health upon revival.

While the last two Skill Variants for the Hive focused on healing, the third takes a different support approach. The Booster Hive sends out a mini-drone for each member on your team and provide boosts to them. This includes upgrades to different physical capabilities of the agent, which can definitely help a lot in battle.

Lastly, we have the one offensive variant for the Hive known as the Stinger. The Stinger Hive sends out mini-drones as well, but these target enemies rather than teammates and begin to attack them by targeting their weak spots. This may not be quite as offensive as say the turret, but it definitely does a great job and shows how much versatility the Hive itself has in The Division 2.

The weapon arsenal in The Division consists of 7 different types, ranging from pistols to more powerful calibers from the Assault Rifle and Marksman Rifle sector.

For lashings of extra boom, various skill-based gadgets like Turrets or Seeker Mines round off this offer. Guns can be adapted similarly to the equipment to your individual needs and several modifications ensure that the role-playing aspect isn’t missed out. Also mentionable is that most of them come in different variants.

During the development process, the developers put a lot of emphasis on authenticity, which is why they got the for video game titles like Tom Clancy’s Ghost Recon famous and well-known developer studio Ubisoft Red Storm on board, to assist with creating the weapons and all related stuff (3D-Design, sound recordings).

Handling & Inventory

The player can carry up to 3 weapons simultaneously, namely a primary and secondary weapon plus one sidearm (Pistol), while the latter has infinite ammo.

But this should not detract you from collecting new ones. Quite the contrary! Your inventory can accommodate multiple weapons at once, but is limited by a certain number of free slots which is defined by the quality of your Backpack. Additional weapons can be stored in the Stash, which can be found in the Base of Operations, in Safe Houses and in Dark Zone Checkpoints.

The strength of a weapon is primarily defined by the following 3 characteristics,

• DMG: How much is the weapon capable of doing per shot. Scales with Firearms.
• RPM: Defines how fast – how many Rounds Per Minute – your weapon can fire.
• MAG: How many rounds can be fired before your magazine needs to be reloaded.

while the other 4 are telling you in which way it affects your gameplay and gun handling.

• Accuracy: How fast the reticle for this weapon changes size when fired. The smaller the reticle, the more accurate the shot.
• Reload Speed: How quickly the weapon can be reloaded.
• Range: Max distance (Optimal Range) before the weapon is no longer effective. The damage applied to enemies at greater distances is lower.
• Stability: How hard the weapon is to control when firing for a prolonged period.

Exotic Weapons

Exotic Weapons have 3 unique Weapon Talents and can be acquired once your character has reached level 30. While there is no guaranteed way to get them, the best chance might be through completing missions on Legendary difficulty as well as killing Named Bosses, but also other sources of loot can drop them.

Assault Rifles

Assault Rifles are relatively lightweight and compact multi-purpose military rifles. They are well-balanced fully automatic weapons with a moderate amount of recoil, most useful at medium range. In The Division they are well suited for shredding the enemy’s armor due to the additional Enemy Armor Damage bonus. In PvP, a percentage of the target’s armor equal to one-third of the shooter’s Enemy Armor Damage is ignored.

Light Machine Guns

Light Machine Guns (LMG) are high-powered fully automatic weapons with large capacity magazines, but which require some time to stabilize when firing. Although the enemies’ AI can be easily suppressed and forced into cover, making use of the increased DMG to targets out of cover should be your goal when using an LMG.

Grenades

The Division also comes with a half dozen different grenades, which can either deal high damage or apply certain Status Effects to targets.

Modifications

Mod Slots

Weapons can be equipped with modifications that are nothing else than items. The number of modifications that can be attached is based on the number of mod slots the weapon has, which in turn depends on the weapon’s archetype, item level and rarity level.

Beginning with classic silencers to magazine extensions, the modifications ensure that you can build the perfect weapon of your choice. The following modification types are available and also separated into sub-categories:

• Handle
• Underbarrel (Short/Long)
• Magazine
• Muzzle (Small/Large)
• Optic (Short/Long)

Because mods are handled as items, their quality is also based on a rarity level and item level and can have multiple random bonuses.

The Division also supports aiming down sights (ADS) if you apply a proper scope to your weapon. This means that the camera switches its position so that you can directly look through it which makes aiming more accurate. However, it is not supported by all of the scopes.

Skin Slot

Division 2 Side Slot Mod

In the fight rather meaningless, but for many players of great value are weapon skins. An additional mod slot allows you to apply either a color or a whole skin camouflage pattern to your gun. You can get new weapon skins by looting any kind of chests in the world, enemy NPCs/players or by helping out civilians.

Here are 2 examples of the Hazmat (pre-order bonus) and National Guard (Gold Edition exclusive) skin, both for the POF P416.

Weapon Talents

Weapon Talents are passive abilities or perks that can be found on High-End weapons. Depending on its archetype, a weapon can have up to 3 of them.

Firing Modes

The Division handles weapon firing modes in a more uncommon way, meaning that you are not able to switch between firing modes like automatic, burst and single shot on the fly.

However each weapon item drop defines or preselects its firing mode, e.g. you can find a normal MP5 that is fully automatic, while also MP5s with burst firing mode can be found.

Ammunition

Different guns require different ammunition types. In addition to the guns’ default ammunition which is shared with other ones of the same archetype, you can use special ammo consumables that can temporarily buff your weapon’s efficiency. The number of bullets you have left can always be looked up in your inventory.
