The Dodge City Gunslinger's Holster remains one of the most unique Exotic gear pieces in Tom Clancy's The Division 2. Designed specifically to enhance sidearm combat, this exotic item rewards players who incorporate secondary weapons into their tactical gameplay. Acquiring it requires completing a multi-step project involving specific objectives across Washington D.C.
Starting the Exotic Holster Project
To begin your journey toward crafting this exotic gear, visit the Inaya Lilaqi blueprint vendor at the Base of Operations. You must purchase the project blueprint titled High Noon at the Tidal Basin to officially kick off the quest line. Ensure you have reached level 40 or World Tier 5 before attempting to start this objective.
Once activated, the project requires you to gather specific components from control points controlled by different enemy factions. Clearing Level 4 Control Points hosted by the Outcasts, True Sons, and Hyenas will yield the first set of required holster parts. Each faction drops a distinct piece upon successfully liberating their high-threat territory.
Collecting the Required Crafting Components
After acquiring the initial faction components, your project will update with a new objective. You must take down Level 4 Control Points again to secure additional specialized crafting materials needed for assembly. Staying mobile during these control point encounters will prevent enemy waves from overwhelming your position.
The final component requires a unique show-down encounter at a specific location in D.C. Travel to the gas station located just west of the White House after 12:00 PM in-game time. Eliminate the spawned boss enemy named High Noon to collect the final piece of the holster craft.
Crafting and Utilizing the Dodge City Holster
With all components gathered, return to Inaya Lilaqi to finalize the project and purchase the official crafting blueprint. Approach the crafting bench in the Base of Operations to build your brand new Exotic holster. Ensure your bench is fully upgraded to guarantee maximum attribute rolls on your new gear.
The Dodge City Gunslinger's Holster excels when paired with high-damage sidearms like revolvers or the Regulus pistol. Stacking the holster's talent buff while wielding your primary weapon allows you to switch to your sidearm for massive single-shot burst damage. Integrating this gear piece into build configurations provides a fun and effective playstyle for challenging end-game content.
