The Division update 1.8.2 is available, adds new Legendary Missions, Shields and Audio Logs

1 Comment

Ubisoft has released a brand new patch for Tom Clancy’s The Division. According to the release notes, update 1.8.2 adds new Legendary Missions, Shields and Audio Logs. In addition, this patch increases the Phoenix Credit limit from 5,000 to 8,000 and fixes some issues in both Dark Zone and Last Stand.

This latest patch for The Division also comes with some gameplay tweaks and fixes. Support Stations with the highest health per tick will now take priority when in range of several stations and the patch implements a cooldown that reduces the auto-snap on aim after first use. Moreover, the update fixes an issue that would cause items to temporarily disappear from the inventory after having shared an item, as well as an issue which would cause item mods to be unequipped when changing loadouts under certain conditions.

As always, UPLAY will download this patch the next time you launch its client and below you can find its complete changelog.
