The Division 2 Tempest — Obtain the Exotic Pistol
The Division 2 — How to Get the Tempest Exotic Pistol
Introduction
Tempest is an Exotic 93R-pattern pistol with a simple, reliable power spike: after your shield breaks, its unique talent Restrained grants a short window of increased damage. If your goal is to secure Tempest without guesswork, here’s the current method (as of September 23, 2025) and a practical walk-through of the climb, the final fight, and the common pitfalls that cause players to miss the guaranteed drop.
Where Tempest Drops
Mode: The Summit
Floor: 100
Bosses: Hunters
Guarantee: set Legendary difficulty before entering Floor 100 → guaranteed (100%) drop after you defeat the Hunters.
Lower difficulties: Tempest can drop, but the chance is low.
Two conditions must be true at the same time for the guarantee to apply:
You actually reach Floor 100;
The final fight is on Legendary when you defeat the Hunters.
Step-by-Step: Securing the Guaranteed Drop
1) Start The Summit and use its checkpoints
The Summit is segmented into ten-floor blocks (1–10, 11–20, …, 91–100). Each block ends with a checkpoint. This system lets you progress in steps instead of attempting an all-day marathon.
Why it matters: keeping a measured pace prevents mistakes late in the run and makes it far easier to return and continue if you take a break.
2) Climb in tens; lock your progress
Clear a block of ten floors, confirm the checkpoint, and move on. If fatigue sets in, stop at a checkpoint and continue later. It’s better to finish fresh than to force a long session and throw away a clean run.
3) Switch to Legendary before you step onto Floor 100
This is the only “gotcha” that ruins otherwise perfect runs. Open difficulty settings outside Floor 100 and set Legendary. If you enter the floor on a lower difficulty, the guaranteed drop will not trigger—even if you win the fight.
Quick self-check: exit → set Legendary → re-enter → start the encounter.
4) Defeat the Hunters on Floor 100
Hunters on the top floor punish rushes and sloppy angles. Play from cover, keep your team’s line of fire tidy, and avoid turning the fight into a stalemate. You don’t need complex tricks here; you need a clean, controlled finish.
5) Collect Tempest
After the victory, loot carefully. Check chests and bodies before you leave the floor. On Legendary Floor 100, Tempest is guaranteed—don’t walk out without picking it up.
Practical Tips for the Climb
Pick a comfortable difficulty for the ascent. Save Legendary exclusively for Floor 100. This preserves energy and cuts down on avoidable wipes.
Keep directives minimal. Directives add interest, but the goal here is to reach Floor 100 and trigger the guarantee—extra modifiers slow the run and invite mistakes.
Solo or group both work. A group can speed up clears; solo is perfectly viable. Neither affects the guarantee—only Legendary at Floor 100 does.
Use the “two-block rule.” Many players find a rhythm in 20–30 floors per session. It’s long enough to make progress, short enough to stay sharp.
Reset smartly. If a block goes badly, consider taking the checkpoint you already earned, regroup, and try again fresh instead of pushing through frustration.
Tempest at a Glance
Name: Tempest
Type: Exotic 93R pistol (short, controlled bursts; not for spraying)
Talent: Restrained — after your shield breaks, Tempest gains a noticeable damage increase for a short period
Exotic mods: like all Exotics, the mods are built-in and fixed; they support stability and a crit-friendly setup so bursts land cleanly
Practical role: a moment tool—use the damage window to remove a priority enemy, then swap back to your main weapon. If you like shield play, Tempest feels very consistent because the shield gives you a predictable trigger for the window.
Common Mistakes
Forgetting Legendary at Floor 100.
Fix: Always exit the elevator, set Legendary, re-enter, then start the fight. Make this a ritual.Marathon mindset.
Fix: Climb in ten-floor blocks. Long, tired sessions cause more resets than they save.Over-tuning directives.
Fix: Keep them light or off. You’re chasing a guaranteed drop, not a record time under heavy modifiers.Leaving without the pistol.
Fix: After the fight, loot deliberately. Check bodies and the area before you extract.
FAQ (focused Tempest)
Do I have to climb on Legendary from Floor 1?
No. Climb on any comfortable difficulty. Only the final fight on Floor 100 must be Legendary to guarantee the drop.
I reached Floor 100 and realized I’m not on Legendary—what now?
Back out of the floor, switch to Legendary, step back in, and then start the encounter. Don’t begin the fight until you confirm the change.
Can Tempest drop on lower difficulties?
Yes, but the chance is low. Use Legendary Floor 100 if you want to remove randomness.
How long does the climb take?
It depends on your pace and whether you play solo or in a group. Using ten-floor checkpoints and taking breaks keeps runs consistent and efficient.
Does party size affect the guarantee?
No. The guarantee is tied to Floor 100 + Legendary, not to the number of players.
