People have got used to camping in the tunnel that they think its the best tactic to use now in all them which is wrong.

That caught me out in the run I did last night. I am used to pushing right up to the entrance using the CC / burn down technique (basically stun the enemy to prevent them from advancing and just unload everything into them).

The two guys I was running with didn't push forward which meant I was running for my life back down the tunnel with three melee dudes in tow (I can go one to one in challenge mode but not 3v1). Did it in the end but damn it was harder than it needed to be!

The highlight of the evening was the stupidly quick (Hard mode) Russian Consulate run I did with 3 other randoms. At no point did any of us use cover. We just steam rolled everything (flashbang sticky + stickybombs + flame turret + pulse = fun). It felt so good watching the lightning dudes melt to focused fire.

I got sod all for my troubles (materials basically) but I just love runs like that.

I did however get a very nice Scar-L (The assault rifle one) as a drop from a level 32 mob in the DZ. Rolled with high per bullet damage (nearly 9000!... jokes aplenty... :o), 16% destructive and 20% Brutal. With my mods attached it isn't stupidly high DPS (only around 112k) but has similar critical chance as my AUG SMG and hits harder at all ranges. :)

Might just sell the game on then if they're shafting single-players, been hearing that the DZ is pointless for a while now. I don't do multi-player so pointless me having it. I suppose 'possible' to play alone and 'fun' to play alone are very different.

Dipped into dz last after avoiding it because of groups. Got a few extractions. Keep your distance from extraction and run in last second. Wack on your ability and you should be good.

Their is safety in numbers though. Sticky bomb a good distraction to get away. Use cars to avoid damage even up close.

I'll have a run in tonight then and see how it goes, better off doing it while I have nothing or little to lose I suppose. :)

Just had a weird one running a hard daily challenge with a group of randoms...

We had just killed the last group of baddies, and was just making my way to pick up the purple loot...when I suddenly get kicked from the group! Not a happy bunny :(

No really point to this post other than to just vent really.

Me too stayed up late to quickly do the daily as I won't be able to do later and got kicked at the final bit before the pc. Went back in with another group and got continuous floor drops. Gave up in the end. :(
 
quickest way to dz 50 ?

had 500 ph coins with nothing to spend them on and ended up buying stuff i didnt need with half of them :(

never get any good gear drops so find it hard to get the points needed for talents on weapons i want to use
 
Run around in a loop on the two/three lowest streets. Lots of groups of purple mobs.

Oh, and get gear with + XP%.

well was running around the dz last night in zone 6 and have to say it was the first time I think I have ever had where there were no other players near us. So we happily just ran between the extraction zone and safe house killing everything in sight. What was more amusing was we took a level 12 player (who after our little dz session has a higher dz ranking than normal ranking) in with us and have to say fair play he didn't die too much while the three of us dealt with everything. Although it was a bit rough as he couldn't get some of the purple drops he saw as they were too far into contaminated zones :(

But finally I have managed to get my first midas - no sure how good it is will check the perks when I log back in again (that thing seems to wreck compared to my navy mp5) in short burst firing mode it seems as laser like as the vector but "pray and spray" the gun will travel north quickly.


I need to test it out some more but I am really enjoying it so far.


Still looking for that m1a (oh you are going to be my crux/fatebringer all over again aren't you :( )

this. You need some gear with + % kill XP. There are some massive gains to be had.

Knee pads, body armor and mask can all roll with + % Kill XP. You could get near +80% with rolls on all 3 pieces of gear. Probably worth keeping drops and re-rolling for this next week once you can re-roll for normal credits. Have a "best build" set of items, then have a couple of "Dark Zone" items with +XP you can switch out when you just want to run round the DZ and rank up.

Massive plz: Red Indian outfit...
Click to expand...

I am working on it. Red Indian is going to be tricky so I am going to see what I have that works for this or be a little bit more creative with the character build. ;p

The options I have open to me are:

Cop (this can be either NY sheriff, trooper outfits)
Native American (some thought required on this)
GI (national guard or one of my other military outfits)
Worker (worn clothing line)
Cowboy (custom clothing line for this. need to check on this)
Biker (motorcycle cop outfit should work for this)


I need to go through my ever expanding wardrobe. lol. when it comes to "appearance" item drops do you only get stuff that you don't already own as I always pick them up not really paying attention to them.



I take it my xbox agents won't be auto transferred over to the PC version?

No idea tbh. They don't take up inventory (other than DZ drops) so I probably pay even less attention to them than you! :D
 
DZ is going to a clusterbang with this update, every solo player is going to get blasted for the HE and crafting mats!
Im starting to regret buying the season pass for it now, I dont like the crafting changes and the fact they made the open world (outside of the DZ) pretty much irrelevant with the single kill of a named NPC, ever...

Itd be a lot better if they put in a 12 or 24 hour respawn timer for the named mobs in the open world, it would encourage people to go out and explore the map a lot more. Im really hoping the daily and weekly missions help with this.

If anyone is looking to complete the incursions next week, add me on PSN (Fullfatty) as I will be trying to do them but need somewhat decent players, I have a few IRL friends who play but theyre slackers! :p
 
its early days and they need to get the balance right. I doubt things will stay like this tbh. Make the most of it before they change it the other way.

You know I have one, gold m1a lol. My purple m1a is a far better option for pure dps as I have said to u. I'd gladly give u the yellow one if I could.

Midas?? Didn't realise they have a Midas weapon in division??


Seriously need to get some dz action in, I'm at 33 at the moment and I did go in for about half hr last night but too many idiots going rogue and me getting caught in the middle of it. Thankfully didn't die too many times, dropped to 32 but managed to make it back to 33 in the end.

Dave I may be on later tonight, depends on the missus really but tomo I'll be divisioning for most of the day and night. Probably try and get some destiny in, that's if the guys want to raid. If not then dz for me, I may call on u to run some dz with me if u fancy it.
 
I will most probably be around tonight from 7/8pm onwards...running the hard dailies and then hitting the DZ if anyone fancies forming a group later?
