The Hunters are special enemies from The Division 2 and have many fans among the agents. With the Warlords expansion, 8 new ones were added, and each gives us a special mask. Here are guides for the new puzzles.
What are Hunters? These “Hunters” are very special enemies in the loot shooter The Division 2 and made their first appearance in the survival mode of the first Division game. With the new, large expansion “Warlords of New York“, 13 additional masks were added to the 12 Hunters with masks that already existed.
The Hunters always come with their own puzzle and reward us with a mask. We have to complete certain tasks that are not automatically activated as missions but require specific actions in the game. Overall, Warlords brought 8 new Hunter puzzles into the game.
Update March 23, 2020: The final Hunters of the Warlords expansions have been found, and we’ve added the guides for you.
Here you will find the path to all 8 new Hunter encounters and the solutions to the puzzles in videos.
8 new Hunters with Warlords – 4 in New York, 4 in Washington
The puzzles are partly not that easy to crack, and since the expansion went online only on March 2, by the way, earlier than planned, the diligent agents have not yet found them all. However, the fact that 6 of the 8 Hunters were found within a few days is incredibly strong.
These are the new Hunters from the Warlords expansion:
- DC-Hunter
- Angle
- Weirdo & Drama
- Camo
- Carbon
- NY-Hunter
- Divide
- Drops & Psycho
- Neurotic
- Lucky, Trip, Veil & Paranoid
If you go hunting for the dangerous Hunters, be prepared for fierce fights. The Hunters hack your skills, don’t go down easily, and deal a lot of damage. The fact that we have to carry out the fights at night makes it no easier.
As soon as the last two Hunters are found, we will update it. According to statements from the developers in the Division community stream “State of the Game” on March 4, one Hunter is currently not working. Thus, we currently have only one left who has not been found.
The Hunters from Washington D.C.
How do I get the Angle mask? This Hunter sends us all over DC and makes agents rummage through old refrigerators. Here you will find the eyes of statues that we need to complete the puzzle. All details of the hunt here in the English video:
Where can I find the Weirdo and Drama masks? These two Hunters are out together, and we can grab two masks with just one fight. These two masks look really crazy and take us through a small festive puzzle, including a visit to a Christmas market and a mulled wine buzz. Here again, the puzzle in the English video:
How do I get the Camo mask? For this Hunter, a longer walk through DC is required. Pressing a few buttons at the right time, and you can start the battle for the Camo mask:
How do I get the Carbon mask? The Carbon Hunter hides in the underground and sends you on a search for cleverly concealed yellow fuse boxes in the large tunnel system of DC:
The Hunters from New York City
How do I get the Divide mask? You can find this Hunter in New York, and he asks you to raise some flags. If you want his mask, check out the solution to the puzzle here in the English video:
What do I need to do for the Drops and Psycho masks? A little playing with electricity and deciphering coordinates, the puzzle has a few nasty twists again. With this German video, you should be able to manage it:
Where can I find the Neurotic mask? For this taped piece of jewelry, you need to take a trip to Battery Park. The community puzzled for weeks about what the solution to this puzzle looks like. Now you can also get the “Pier Hunter”:
How do I get the remaining masks? The last 4 Hunters come together and require you to take a big tour through New York City. So expect a long search. The battle for the coveted cosmetics is likely to take some time, as you have to fight all 4 Hunters at once.
What else should be noted? The Hunters are incredibly strong and will become even stronger with the global difficulty. Therefore, eliminate the nasty fellows at a low global difficulty level and take a full squad with you. With four people, you should be able to secure the masks easily – at least at the lower difficulty levels.
What is the deal with the Hunters? To this day, the motives and identities of the Hunters remain completely unclear, but they seem to have something against the Division. Not only in DC but also in the new open world “Lower Manhattan”.
They are considered very strong opponents and can really put us to the test with skills, hacking attacks, and tactical approaches. For that, the elite opponents also drop special masks that we can adorn ourselves with.
These enemies are very popular, and there are even complete cosmetic outfits in the game. Here’s how you get the black Hunter outfit.
Do you think it’s okay that the Hunters only came into the game as puzzles again, or would you have liked to see a concrete connection to the story this time, in the form of a main or side mission?
