Agents in The Division 2 who love collecting apparel in the game, rejoice! Ubisoft Massive will be rolling out The Division 2 apparel changes in Title Update 6! Not only that, but the Explorers Event — which is currently on-going — has been extended.

First off, The Division 2 apparel changes! Here’s what’s happening to apparel cache keys:

STANDARD APPAREL CACHE CHANGES

Changes to how you earn Standard Apparel Caches are coming with Title Update 6. Since the launch of The Division 2, we have observed some confusion with earning these caches, and especially around collecting fragments and converting Standard Apparel Cache Fragments into fully fleshed out keys. Fragments were hard to track with the variety of different sources they come from but also easily missed in a number of Proficiency caches, and required crafting to convert to full usable keys.

To streamline this experience, starting soon, we will remove the fragments altogether and there will only be one type of key—Standard Key. This key will have a chance to drop from Field Proficiency, Dark Zone Proficiency, and Conflict.

If you currently own a variety of fragments from the previous system in place, don’t worry! You will receive conversions based on the following criteria:

• For every 100 fragments in your inventory, you will receive one Standard Key, rounded up. So if you have 101 fragments, this rounds up to two Standard Keys.
• For every Specialized Key (previous fragments cost = 100), you will receive one Standard Key as these are being converted 1:1.
• For every Superior Key (previous fragments cost = 250), you will receive three Standard Keys.
• For every High-End Key (this key came from promotions only, such as Ubisoft Club Rewards), you will receive five Standard Keys.

You don’t need to do anything to have these fragments converted, as this will happen automatically with Title Update 6, when you first log in after the update.

As for the Explorers Event, here’s the overview of the event schedule:

Here’s a full overview of the updated event schedule:

• Event Live—September 24th to October 15th. During this period, Event keys can be earned from gameplay activities.
• Event Closing—October 15th to October 22nd. If you have leftover keys available, be sure to use them now, as the event items can only be obtained until this date. The reward for completing the event – the Space Explorer uniform can also only be obtained until this period ends. You can use your unspent keys, as well as purchase additional ones to get all the Explorers event apparel.
• Post Event—October 22nd onward. As outlined earlier, the Explorers items will not go into the Standard Cache Pool, and the pool of this cache will be reduced to around 100 items.

As a reminder, In order to earn keys, you need to be at least level 30 and complete the Capitol Stronghold to enter World Tier 1, at which point you are granted a Weekly Apparel Project. Event keys can be obtained from the following sources:

• Weekly Apparel Projects: three keys each
• Chance to drop when reaching Field Proficiency
• Chance to drop when reaching Dark Zone Proficiency
• Direct purchase with Premium Credits

Don’t forget, the inventory system and interface are also getting updated in Title Update 6 too. Here’s the pre-release patch notes for Title Update 6, though it’s not the final one.

In Title Update 6, which is The Division 2’s next major patch, we’re also getting Episode 2, along with a host of gameplay changes and tweaks. Ubisoft Massive has today confirmed that one of these changes is a The Division 2 inventory update.

Ubisoft mentions that with Title Update 6, the studio will be introducing new ways to navigate your inventories, along with interface updates. Check ’em out below.

MORE LOADOUTS

We are excited to announce more loadouts coming with Episode 2, for a total of 12. Each loadout perk upgrade will give you 3 new slots. Specializations and grenades are now tied to loadouts too, making build swapping more convenient overall.

DYE AND SKINS MENU

Located in the apparel inventory, the Dye and Skins Menu lists all owned weapon skins and gear dyes for easy applications. Choose the desired gear dye or weapon skin to apply to all pieces of gear or equipped weapons straight from the menu.

 BASE DAMAGE EXPOSITION

Episode 2 is bringing more information to the interface regarding weapon damage, specifically Base Damage. Going forward, all weapons will display their rolled damage and how this value compares to the base damage of the weapon.

 MOD INVENTORY REDESIGN

We have received a ton of feedback regarding the mod inventory, and we redesigned the interface for more efficient navigation. When opening the Mod Inventory in Episode 2, you will see your mods divided into three categories: Offensive, Defensive, and Utility. There will be a fourth category— Generic—if you still have any old mods left in your inventory. On top of this, there’s a toggleable grid view option for listing these mods in your inventories.

NAMED ITEM VISUALS

Yes, named items are coming to The Division 2, and we want to ensure you recognize these items and talents in your inventories. Going forward, all named items and talents will be marked with a chevron (“v” shaped) watermark and written in high-end text color.

 

“MARK AS” OPTIONS

We introduced new options to the Item Flags inventory system: Mark For Donation and Mark For Recalibration. The first marks items for Project donations while the latter marks them for recalibration fodder. With these new options, you can more easily mark items to suit your needs. Mark As Favorite is still available as well.

PLAYER OVERVIEW PANEL

The Player Overview Panel now gives more information up-front in one consolidated space. Equipped weapon damage and rpm are listed here, in addition to skill power for each equipped skill. When browsing through the inventory, comparison values are shown as well.

STATS PAGE BREAKDOWNS

A detailed Breakdown page is available in Episode 2 for every attribute, statistic, and talent on the Player Statistics Sheet. On this page, anything contributing to the highlighted statistic is listed directly.

ALL GEAR SLOT

Located where you previously found contaminated items, a new Gear Slot lists all gear pieces in one place to help with managing all your loot.

OPTIONS MENU

The Inventory Options Menu has been redesigned to a grid menu, making navigation more efficient.

ITEM FILTERING & SORTING

We know there is a loot of loot in The Division 2, and we want to make this loot easier to find in your inventories. As a result, we are adding a filter within all inventory categories to help you search for the gear you need.

In addition to all of the improvements above, there are a few more visual updates to share with everyone:

• Equipped state—equipped weapons and gear are more defined in your inventories
• Colored attribute icons and comparison arrows on selected highlight— new visuals for color attributes as well as arrows for comparisons on highlighted equipment
• Current sorting and filter exposed—both the current sorting order and active filter will be shown at the bottom of inventory lists
• Skill power clarification for skill equipping—skill power values will be clarified upon skill equip
• Mod slots on item tiles—more defined visuals for mod slots on item tiles
• Camera zoom on category selection—the ability to zoom on weapons and gear
• Unique talent visuals—indicates the application of a unique, non-stacking talent

Title Update 6 is set to be released within the month. Once it’s out, we’ll be sure to let our readers know. For some of the changes coming to Title Update 6, check out the patch notes preview.
