Players are now diving into The Division 2’s World Tier 5 and tackling the new Tidal Basin stronghold. While this endgame content is certain to be welcomed by a number of fans, for some, the new loot that comes with an update is indeed the real prize. One such piece of new loot is Nemesis, an exotic sniper, and many players are certain to want to get their hands on this powerful long-range weapon as soon as possible.
How to Get Nemesis Exotic Sniper in The Division 2
Unfortunately, at the time of writing, it is not possible to complete all the steps necessary to obtain The Division 2’s Nemesis. That said, players that want to get access to the exotic sniper as soon as possible can fulfill a number of requirements now.
To begin, players must complete The Division 2’s Tidal Basin and progress to World Tier 5. From there, these players must finish all World Tier 5 content and regain access to Tidal Basin. Next, players should jump back into Tidal Basin, but now they will be able to select a difficulty level — Normal is recommended for the following steps.
Once back in Tidal Basin, players should make their way to the section immediately preceding destroying the first set of defenses, where Ortega instructs the player to patch ISAC into a laptop. In this location, players will find a multi-floor building. On the top floor, there is a bedroom and a Black Tusk Keycard to be taken.
With the Black Tusk Keycard in hand, players should continue through the mission until they reach the hovercraft. Once inside the hovercraft bay, players will find a door that can be unlocked using the newly acquired Keycard. Beyond this door is a weapon crate containing the Adrestia SR1, a high-end weapon that should be deconstructed in order to obtain the first Nemesis component: Marksman Rifle: Scope - The Tally.
Next up is playing through the invaded Capitol Building stronghold — this does not need to be done on hard mode. At the end of the stronghold, players will encounter David “Prime” Maxwell, a boss that will drop Marksman Rifle: Barrel - The Scourge and get players one step closer to the new The Division 2 exotic weapon.
However, this is where the quest for Nemesis currently comes to an end, as the next two steps require eliminating bosses, Shorty and Klutz, in the invaded Roosevelt Island stronghold and invaded District Union Arena stronghold respectively. These two invaded strongholds are not currently available in the weekly rotation and are thus inaccessible.
However, when these two invaded strongholds do enter the weekly rotation, players should simply complete them to eliminate the bosses and obtain the Marksman Rifle: Bolt and Stock. Thereafter, players may need to obtain a Nemesis blueprint, which may come from the first The Division 2 raid, but that is yet to be confirmed.
While some may be disappointed that they cannot currently acquire the new exotic sniper, increasing World Tier 5 Gear Score in The Division 2 is certain to keep many players occupied for the moment. Indeed, there is much to be done to maximize Gear Score prior to the release of the raid later this month.
Tom Clancy’s The Division 2 is available now for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
