Best Gear Farming Locations

Looking for the best gear in The Division 2? Discover how to get your hands on powerful Exotic items, from masks to backpacks, and learn where to farm them.

Hey Agent! So you're looking to snag some of that sweet Exotic gear in The Division 2, huh? Smart move. These items are the real deal, with unique talents that can totally change your playstyle. Let's break down how you can get your hands on them. First off, Exotics aren't just lying around. They usually drop from bosses, and you can only equip one Exotic armor piece and one Exotic weapon at a time. Unlike your regular gear, you can't slap mods or dyes on these bad boys, but their talents can be boosted by pairing them with specific gear sets or weapons. You can also improve their talents by re-rolling them at the crafting table in The White House, but be warned, that'll cost you an Exotic Component. So, how do you actually get them? * Boss Drops: This is your most common route. Keep an eye out for Exotic drops from challenging enemies and bosses, especially in higher difficulty missions and open-world activities. * Weekly SHD Requisitions: Don't forget to donate your Weekly SHD Requisitions. It's a solid way to get a chance at some Exotics. * Raids: If you're up for a serious challenge, the Dark Hours and Iron Horse Raids can reward you with exclusive Exotic items. These are tough, so make sure your squad is ready! * Crafting: Some Exotics can actually be crafted. You'll need to find the specific Exotic Component and the blueprint first, but it guarantees you'll get the item you want. * Targeted Loot: Keep an eye on the weekly Targeted Loot rotation. If a certain gear type (like Masks or Chests) is the targeted loot for the day, your chances of getting an Exotic of that type from enemies and activities in that area go way up. * Special Events and Vendors: Sometimes, special events or specific vendors might offer Exotic items or components, so always check what's available. Remember, patience is key! Farming Exotics can take time, but the payoff is totally worth it. Good luck out there, Agent!
