Skills

The Division 2 Developer Comments: We took a hard look at the electric current meta. The builds that are fun, constructive and pop. We knew that skill builds, while information technology being something people desire to play with, was nowhere most competitive. Nosotros knew at that place was an explosives damage build that was on the fringe of popularity, only none that actually relied on really practiced skill mods driven by skill ability.

We analyzed the all-time damage builds and survivability builds out at that place and looked at their efficiency – how fast they kill, how fast they tin clear content, how fast they can have down enemies – and mapped that to our skills. How much more than power practise skills demand to get from 3K skill ability (our current maximum requirement on skill power mods) to compensate for all the damage bonuses the histrion is "giving upwards" on gear to reach that skill ability?

And so we looked at each skill and what it should be good at (burst, sustain, single target damage, survivability etc) and went to work tuning the mods to make a skill build approach the efficiency of a "ruby-red" harm build or a "blue" tank build.

To that outcome, here are the current changes to skill mods power levels, and in some cases base numbers, on skills.

Skill Haste

Cooldown Reduction has been replaced with skill haste. Skill Haste works equivalent to speed. So, 100% Skill Haste reduces cooldown by 50%, like a car speeding up by 100% getting to its destination in half the time. This means that the player tin invest in more than than 100% Haste and still get something dorsum. It also means at that place'southward a diminishing return to Skill Haste, every bit opposed to cooldown reduction where each point was actually worth more the last one. This allows the states to have a practiced corporeality of Skill Haste possible from gear, merely even larger amounts granted by high skill power Skill Mods, granting skill builds more frequent admission to their souped upwards skills.

To that consequence, these are the changes to Skill Haste (formerly Cooldown Reduction):

Hard caps removed.

All current +Cooldown Reduction on existing gear becomes +Skill Haste, with an increase of 33% to their rolls

Surge Talent – Increased Skill Haste from 10% to twenty%

Specialization skill mods (granted from each spec tree)

These now crave 0 skill power to run.

Their bonuses are locked to a pretty high roll, making them the all-time power-to-functioning mods in the game.

There are still higher value mods of these types that can be found in the loot pool, even so those do take Skillpower requirements.
