Accessing the Clan Vendor in The Division 2 is straightforward but contingent on your involvement in a clan. First, you must be a member of a clan. Once you are, head to either the Base of Operations (BOO) or Haven, where you’ll find the Clan Room. Inside, you will find the Clan Vendor, ready to trade with you. Remember, access to these rooms and the vendor is exclusively for clan members.
Becoming a Clan Member: The First Step
Before you can even think about visiting a Clan Vendor, you need to be part of a clan. Here’s a breakdown of how to get clanned up:
- Unlock Clans: Progress through the main story until you unlock Grace Larson at the Base of Operations. This happens after completing three Theater Settlement missions.
- Join or Create: Talk to Grace again to open the clan interface. You can either create your own clan (requiring at least four members to start progressing) or browse and join an existing one.
- Clan Requirements: Some clans have requirements like minimum SHD level, activity levels, or communication preferences. Find one that fits your play style.
Locating the Clan Vendor: BOO or Haven
Once you’re a card-carrying member, finding the Clan Vendor is the next step. These vendors aren’t wandering around the open world; they have dedicated locations:
- Base of Operations (BOO): In the East Wing of the White House, you’ll find the Clan Room. The Clan Vendor is located within this space. It’s a hub for socializing, regrouping, and accessing clan-specific features.
- Haven: This settlement also has a Clan Room with its own Clan Vendor. The location within Haven may vary, so explore until you find the designated area.
The exact layout of the Clan Rooms might differ slightly depending on the platform and any updates, but the key is to look for the designated area within either the BOO or Haven.
What Does the Clan Vendor Offer?
The Clan Vendor isn’t just a decorative NPC; it’s a valuable resource for gear and resources:
- Weekly Rewards: This is where you collect your weekly clan stash, earned through clan activity and progression.
- Exclusive Items: The vendor often sells items that are not available anywhere else. This may include gear sets, weapon blueprints, or cosmetic items.
- Currency: The vendor typically accepts standard in-game currency, but may also require clan credits earned through clan projects and activities.
Clan Progression and its Impact
Clan progression directly impacts the quality and quantity of items available at the vendor:
- Clan Level: As your clan levels up, the vendor’s inventory expands, offering more and better items.
- Weekly Activity: Participating in clan activities, such as completing projects and earning clan XP, contributes to your weekly rewards.
- Larger Clans: Bigger clans often have access to a wider range of rewards and perks, enhancing the benefits of visiting the Clan Vendor.

To get the most out of the Clan Vendor, consider these tips:
- Stay Active: Regular participation in clan activities maximizes your contribution to clan XP and unlocks better rewards.
- Communicate: Coordinate with your clan members to focus on specific projects and goals, ensuring everyone benefits.
- Check Weekly: The vendor’s inventory resets weekly, so make it a habit to visit and see what’s new.
