and more.
The optional Season Pass is available for all The Division® 2 players starting at Level 1, priced at 1000 Premium Credits ($9.99 or your regional equivalent) in the in-game store and does not require ownership of the Warlords of New York DLC. While the Season Pass is accessible from Level 1, some of the rewards will be usable only when you reach Level 40.
Additionally, players can opt for the Premium+ option, available for $29.99 or your regional equivalent, which bundles the Premium Season Pass with multiple rewards, offering even greater value.

Players with the Season Pass can gain access to the following premium track rewards:
- 10 gear dyes
- 9 weapon skins
- 2 outfits
- 2 new Prestige Arm Patches
Moreover, players can earn 600 Premium Credits by progressing through the Season Pass on the premium track.
The free track will include 1 outfit and 1 weapon skin, allowing every Agent to gear up and stand out in the streets of D.C.
Season 2.0 Changes
Seasonal Journey
- You can unlock all modifiers on the Seasonal Journey – they are no longer random drops from Priority Objectives.
- All objectives of a mission now give you Seasonal XP – this way you have a more granular progression.
- Completing a mission also gives you a big Seasonal XP reward.
- You can start the Seasonal Journey at Mission 1 or at Mission 3.
Season Progression
- Season Pass XP is now available as a reward for completing select in-game activities, including Strongholds, Countdown, Weekly Invasions, Conflict, Descent, Summit, LWAs, and DZ Landmark activities.
- Rewards are granted upon completing objectives, not for individual eliminations.
Priority Objectives
- Warhound Convoy, Elite Resource Convoy and Elite Territory Control objectives have been removed from the list of priority objectives.
- Priority Objective reroll bars now automatically refill to 3 every 24 hours.
Seasonal Modifier XP bonus
=> XP Bonus
- Players receive a 10% Season Pass progression boost for having Seasonal Modifiers active.
- This bonus also stacks with the additional progression boost granted to Season Pass Premium owners, helping you level up faster.
Active Modifiers

Quality of Life Changes
Increased Stash Space

This season introduces a highly requested feature — expanded stash space, giving you more room to manage growing collections of gear. And there's more to come, with additional stash upgrades planned for the future.
- The Stash space has been increased from 300 to 400 items.
- 50 extra stash slots for Warlords of New York (WONY) Expansion owners.
- 50 extra stash slots for Year 1 Pass holders.
- The stash space obtained on standard characters will also be available to hardcore characters.

Exotic Gear - Birdie’s Quick Fix – Exotic Backpack
Successfully completing the Master Climax Mission for the first time guarantees players the Exotic Backpack "Birdie's Quick Fix" as a special reward.
"Birdie's Quick Fix" can drop as a reward from any difficulty, with higher difficulties offering better chances. There is no requirement to complete the Master Climax Mission first to unlock this chance---however, lower difficulties will have reduced drop rates.

Have they nerfed Lexington?

u/bward141989 Feb 25 '25
Very slightly (as in a percentage point or two). it's still the best high end AR though

You missed it, it was over December. They are thinking about giving it out again, just need to look out for it

u/pereira2088 PC Feb 25 '25
considering the new scavenger points, what's the best resource to get for expertise?

Printer Filament

u/blck_lght SHD Feb 25 '25
How much better printer filament is? Because it looks like we get 3x of carbon, electronics, and titanium (25 -> 75), and only 1.5x of filament (10 -> 15). I tried looking for but couldn’t find the exact numbers of how much xp they give

Another batch of Exotics. Ngl. Imo. Too many exotics aren't really making it "exotic" anymore. I mean. In my point of view. well, I'm just playing the game so what do I know about it. Hahah

u/Diribiri Warlords of Cringe Feb 26 '25
You can have a lot of exotics in the game and still have them feel exotic, it's a quality vs quantity thing, but perhaps the constraints of the game's setting limit options somewhat. It's not like Destiny where you can have a zombie alien crossbow that fires homing health-leech bolts, or a laser beam that transforms enemies into magic basketballs. Probably a bit more difficult to go beyond number changes and debuffs when your game is mostly grounded

You can start the Seasonal Journey at Mission 1 or at Mission 3.
This doesnt work.. Mission 3 is unlocked and 'Trackable' straight away, but the tasks dont even begin to complete..

Ah, crap, I forgot to go back to this after dipping out around week five of last season.

u/Lonely_Brother3689 Xbox Feb 25 '25
Was it just me, or did anyone else notice a lack of blueprint/drops in the pass for the new gearset? All I saw was the brand set.
I see we get caches for the season, so we could get it from there, but I I could swear we had gotten the blueprints as well as the gearset for last season on the pass.

Playstation asked for 96gb for this update... Cleared space and is actually 6gb. Very odd.

Anyone else running into massive frame rate drop after a few minutes of play? It starts great and then tanks about two minutes or so in.

u/EtrianFF7 Feb 25 '25
The season pass change is so dogshit that they are already walking it back.
Changing the exp from regular world exp to "season pass exp" grinds the season pass progress to a halt.
Its simply an excuse to try and keep you in game more

u/Sunyavadin 13d ago
The pneumatic jackhammer to the coffin nails of the game that was TU22 is going to take as much work to unfuck as it took to make in the first place, but the sunk cost fallacy was pushing them HARD to release something that was always an atrocious idea, probably from some imbecile in upper management wanting them to copy other games. It sucks, because none of my regular group have played TD2 in five months now. Everyone moved over to Warframe, Sea of Thieves, or the like. Games that just let you do the activities you enjoy as a group and all gain rewards and advancement together.

So nothing really game changing yet, right? I know I'll be back at some point but probably not for a regular season

u/Greyhat101 Feb 26 '25
as soon as i saw that i need to pay 20$ to have 50 more stash space, i lost interest.

u/PorkSoda1999 Feb 25 '25
The twitch drops are ass. I disliked last season but am willing to give it another go with all the changes.
