The Division 2was no small gamewhen it first launched, but it’s been growing even further for the better part of two years now thanks to a fairly frequent stream of updates. For the latest update, Title Update 12, Ubisoft has been letting players try it out on the PC Public Test Server, and today sees the introduction of a slew of balance tweaks and bug fixes for players to preview.
Last week saw Phase 1 of the testing period take place, allowing players to try out some ofTitle Update 12’s upcoming features like the ability to re-roll a weapon’s stats. Today, Ubisoft has kicked off Phase 2, which is now live and will be available on the PTS until this Wednesday, December 2. During this time, though, players on the PTS will not be able to access Season 4 content as well as the new Global Event and its accompanying shop.

According to Ubisoft, the changes that Phase 2 brings to Title Update 12 focus on tweaks to general game balance for both PvE and PvP. Among these changes are tweaks to the optimization materials introduced in Phase 1 to make Rogue Agents drop them more frequently. A few ofThe Division 2’s weapons have also received noticeable changes, with the PDR assault rifle receiving a damage buff while the Bighorn and Capacitor Exotics get increased magazines. Meanwhile, the Repair Trap skill has had its base healing, buff radius, and cooldown time improved.
As for bugs, Title Update 12 brings dozens of fixes to issues ranging from progression-breaking glitches to various issues withThe Summitand weapons like the Scorpio Exotic. It should be noted that since these changes are part of a developer build, it’s possible that these and the rest of the changes Ubisoft introduced today won’t be fully representative of the changes that will eventually be added to the full game.
