In The Division the Global Event “Ambush” is now live. It is the last on the roadmap for Year 3. What modifiers, masks, and secret gear sets are available, we summarize here for you. How could it proceed?
After several weeks of quiet regarding The Division, there is now work to be done again, as the Global Event “Ambush” starts. It is officially the last on the roadmap for Year 3 of The Division. Currently, we do not know what will happen next.
Now, Massive is initially ringing in the Ambush via tweet:
The Modifiers for the Global Event – Just Don’t Move
What are modifiers? With the modifiers, The Division wants to bring variety to the different activities. While the first one is always active, the other two can be selected in addition. This also increases your rewards.
These modifiers are active during Ambush:
- Ambush – always active: Players deal increased damage when they do not move.
- Covert Ambush: The effect of “Ambush” + players take damage when the damage bonus runs out.
- What does that mean? A white bar is displayed over the health points when in combat. If you move, this decreases; if you stand still, it refills. If the bar is empty, you take damage over time.
- Strategic Ambush: The effect of “Covert Ambush” + damage bonus, and players take damage when they are too close to allies.
In which missions can you select them? You can select Covert and Strategic Ambush only in the missions:
- Times Square Power Relay
- Broadway Department Store
- Police Academy,
- Queens Tunnel Storage
- and in the Dragon’s Lair raid.
These Rewards You Can Get Through Ambush
As with every Global Event, there are also three masks during Ambush, which can only be unlocked through commendations during the event.
What do you have to do for the masks? You must fulfill certain commendations related to the modifiers of the respective Global Event. Open your dossier and look under commendations for Ambush. In the list, you will find the commendations you must complete for the mask:
- Bug Mask: Motion blur – Kill enemies while moving, World Tier 5, at least on Hard
- Cage Mask: Like a statue – Kill enemies stationary, World Tier 5, at least on Hard
- Veil Mask: Privacy – Kill enemies near allies in Strategic Ambush, World Tier 5, at least on Hard
The Secret Sets of the Global Event
What sets will there be? The Global Event Ambush brings four Classified Sets that you can obtain during the period with increased chances. These are
- AlphaBridge
- FireCrest
- Hunter’s Loyalty
- and the Authority of the Tactician
How to get Classified Sets during the event: During Global Events, there are special containers. For each secret set, you can buy Classified containers at the event vendor for the special GE Credits you earn by completing PvP and PvE activities.
These containers are available: The Classified containers are more expensive at 3000 GE Credits, but you can choose which set you want a guaranteed secret item from.
Additionally, there is a container for 1500 GE Credits. This can contain parts of all four sets from the Global Event, and there is a chance for exotic gear. However, you might only receive normal gear parts, which is why this container is only worth it if you don’t want a specific set anymore.
What Happens Next?
According to the plans for September, the developer blog for The Division 2 is scheduled for the 27th. Whether this contains new information about the sequel is unknown. On this day, the next developer live stream, the State of the Game, will also take place.
What happens in The Division 1? What happens next in The Division is open. There may still be Global Events, as two are still missing. Blackout and Outbreak could be ideally used in the coming months.
