The Division 2 announced that Title Update 10 is finally arriving to the Public Test Server. Preload is going to be available starting today, with the first phase to begin tomorrow, May 22. The update is going to offer the usual quality-of-life improvements and bug fixes. However, it’s also going to bring changes that are planned to buff players with the hopes of making the game not only more fun, but more rewarding.
There may be some of you wondering why there’s a PTS for Title Update 10. For one, there has been no PTS during the last couple of updates. The team wanted to make sure that additional testing has gone into the update in order to guarantee a great experience for everyone. In addition, the team also wants more players to be a part of the development phase by giving them the chance to provide feedback and bug reports. Should the PTS be successful, the plan is to hold more of them in the future.
As mentioned, Title Update 10 focuses on game health and generosity. Changes players can expect include:
- Almost all weapons are going to be buffed.
- Improvements to gear sets.
- Legendary difficulty is going to be more rearding.
- During the first phase of the PTS, there’s going to be an increased chance of loot drops from Veterans and Elites.
- No purple loot at higher difficulties.
- Changes to PvP weapon damage and time-to-kill.
- Changes to Exotics:
- Availability of some Exotics coming from unique sources are going to be broadened. Players can now find them as:
