The SHD Level system is a new infinite-progression system introduced into Tom Clancy's The Division 2 in the expansion Warlords of New York as part of Title Update 8.
Overview[]
After the player completes the final mission of Warlords of New York (Liberty Island), the player then gets promoted from levels to SHD levels. XP earned after completing Liberty Island contribute towards the SHD Level, with each level having the same requirement of 700,000 XP. With each level, the player then gets to choose a stat to invest a point into and gain small increments of increasing power with respect to that stat. SHD Levels 1-5 act as "tutorial" levels and unlock another node after investing the point earned. The nodes comprise of 5 stat areas. These are Offense, Defense, Skills, Misc. and Scavenging. Each node contains 4 different stats for the player to invest in. Each stat can have 50 points invested into it before it is maxed out. Scavenging is an exception. Each point in Scavenging rewards the player with their choice of either E-credits, or any of the crafting materials. Once all stats on every node aside from scavenging is filled, each point from then on will be in scavenging.
