The Division 2 Title Update 4 Now Live, Adds Gunner Specialization

After a period on the public test servers, Ubisoft Massive’s recent major update for The Division 2 is now live. Title Update 4 brings a new Specialization, the Gunner, along with changes to Weekly Projects for clans and numerous bug fixes. Check out some of the patch notes below (or the full notes here).

The Gunner is the biggest new addition, armed with a minigun and capable of shredding through enemies. Though the Gunner can’t roll or take cover, it’s capable of disorienting foes out of cover and unleashing a hail of bullets. The Specialization will be available immediately to Year One Pass owners.

Those without a pass will need to embark on Special Field Research, completing in-game challenges to unlock the Specialization. Year One Pass owners may also complete these challenges since they provide unique cosmetics as rewards. Time will tell how strong the Specialization is, especially in PvP, so stay tuned for more information on changes and balance updates.

You can also expect the first of The Division 2’s post-launch episodes to go live next month with players traveling to Kenley College and the National Zoo. The game’s next raid is also planned for this Fall.

Mods

Generic Protocol Mod and Generic System Mod can no longer be equipped in High-End, Gear Set and Exotic items.
You will still be able to equip them in lower quality items.
All other mods can be equipped in slots matching their type (Offense, Defense, Utility).
Developer comment: Generic mods could be stacked in unhealthy ways and the gear mod eco system has not been in a place we are happy with and it had led to some unwanted behavior such as low-level farming for generic mods.

Missions

Roosevelt Island

Shipping containers containing virus samples will now be easier to spot.
