Division 2

The game's first season is now well underway with the first manhunt target, "Neptune,"completed by most players. New "league" and "global event" play is now live.

Leagues consist of certain timed challenges that confer ranks for better completion times in missions. These ranks translate into rewards bestowed by claimed crates in the league menu. Collect seasonal items and even an exotic.

This global event that went live last week, "Polarity Switch," consists of switching between active colors displayed on your character to defeat correspondingly colored mobs in the game. Reward caches are conferred after completing challenges such as "eliminating positive polarity Outcasts," or other factions, etc.
