How to Get Perks & What They All Do in The Division 2
Perks are an essential asset to every Division agent out in the field. Here’s how to get perks and what they all do in The Division 2.
As you make your way through Washington D.C., you’ll earn SHD tech. Serving as the game’s perk points, SHD Tech allows you to unlock more perks and here’s how.
How to Get Perks
SHD Tech can be gathered by playing SHD Tech missions, leveling up and looting SHD tech locations. Once you’ve gathered enough, go to the Quartermaster.
Speak with them and you’ll be presented with a screen of perks you can unlock. The amount of SHD Tech you have will determine which perks you are able to unlock.
When you’ve got enough SHD Tech to unlock the perk you want, select it and it will be added to your agent’s roster of perks. Before selecting a perk, though, you might want to brush up on what each perk can do for you.
