In a Q&A on Ubisoft's blog, Petter Mannerfelt (Game Director) explained some details and outlined what to expect in the upcoming expansion.
Clear Sky Incursion[edit]
The premise for the Clear Skies Incursion revolves around a group of Rikers who have taken over an anti-air battery from the remnants of the Last Man Battalion.
The Incursion is said to take place in Columbus Circle, which confirms that the out-of-bounds area players glitched into earlier this year, has been updated and added to the game. Mannerfelt also confirmed that v1.2 will include a new Dark Zone bracket, though whether this exists in a new area is unknown.
Rewards for completing the Clear Sky mission will be High End items with a Gear Score of 204, plus Gear Set items with a score of 214 (on Hard) and 240 (on Challenging).
New Gear Sets
[edit]
There are four new Gear Sets being introduced in the Conflict update:

Gameplay Updates[edit]
The Division Fix Patch Download Free
In addition to increasing the drop rate of High-End loot, Dark Zonebosses may also drop Sealed Caches, which can contain bonus gear, division tech or DZ funds.
Players are now able to Hijack Extractions, meaning that once containers have been attached to the extraction rope a player may cut the rope and claim the items for themselves. Hijacking an extraction will result in a Rogue status.
Finally, there are new missions available in DZ safehouses. Search and Destroy missions lead players across the Dark Zone to locate and eliminate groups of hostile gang members. Completing a certain amount of S&D missions will lead players to High-Value Targets, which are additional unique enemies hiding in the Dark Zone.

[edit]
Falcon Lost Incursion, v1.1 also introduces a slew of additions, changes and fixes to The Division.

Most assignments can be completed while playing alone but some will require enlisting other agent’s assistance to complete
Dark Zone Supply Drops
[edit]
Dark Zone Supply Drops are a global event where the Strategic Homeland Defense agency airdrops multiple supply caches to assist Division agents
Supply drops will occur multiple times over the course the day
The supply drops will contain non-contaminated gear of all types that will be ready to use without the need for extraction
These supply drops will be heavily sought after by other agents and enemy factions that roam the Dark Zone, so be ready for resistance
Gear Score
[edit]
Every non-vanity gear piece that can be found when your agent is level 30 has a Gear Score value. The higher an item’s Gear Score, the stronger the item
The overall Gear Score of your agent can be seen in your main menu next to your player level. Gear Score indicates the advancement of an agent
Other agents’ Gear Scores are displayed next to their health bars
Improving your gear and increasing your overall Gear Score will grant your agent access to the most dangerous high-end challenges.
