The Division 2: 10 Tips & Tricks The Game Doesn't Tell You

3. Dismantle Skills To Halve Their Cooldown Time

Now, this is a really neat trick. Any time you use a Skill, you'll notice that a cooldown timer will appear, preventing you from re-using said Skill for up to a few minutes at a time.

But you can do yourself a favour by manually dismantling the Skill before it expires (by holding down the deploy button for a few seconds), which will in turn halve the amount of time the cooldown takes.

It honestly feels like a bit of a cheat considering the edge it can give players during combat - especially with relation to the turret - but given that it was also a feature in the first game, it doesn't seem like Ubisoft will be patching it out anytime soon.
