I hit lvl 75 in the dz.
Have 100 of each HE mat, 50 HE DT, 500 birdie bucks

Looking forward to Tuesday.

Dz06 protip: make sure to kill the boss of the Q building inside the building or courtyard (purple area) or the site will bug out.

Same with midtown music..don't let the boss wander too far from his spawn.

We farmed dz06 for 3ish hours and the Q was up every 15 minutes.

I've made such a huge mistake haha

It's not so bad depending on the server. Except I have to reup on ammo a lot more.

The fricking lvl 90 DZ players are getting on my last nerve right now. Had a group going over the weekend, we're all high lvl 30-40 in DZ, just trying to farm to get to 50. Kept getting mowed down all weekend by lvl 90 groups. Not even at extractions or after a boss fight, just gunned down in the street like animals.

The new patch should fix this with gear scores and the brackets they put you in.

That's what I'm hoping. This weekend was brutal. We could not get into a good server.

I have the exact same problem. It's complete bullshite when that happens. You can't compete with lvl 60+ when you're in your 30s.

myself and a poster here, GSUEagle, decided to go rogue and mow down random people in dz01 because we were bored.

After 30 minutes the server turned from 0 rogue activity to 10 rogues and the street in front of the Sports Store was basically Team Deathmatch.

Basically high level people do it because:
1) PVP can be fun
2) Practice for Supply drops,
3) trying to get 20 rogue kills for the achievement
4) PVP is good DZ experience (surviving rogue or killing rogues)
5) its funny
6) Less people farming division tech

just stick to dz05 and 6 to avoid rogues. 90% of the gankings occur south of Bryant park.

the library and sports store are not safe.

Yea, we were trying to run the loop in DZ03 between refueling station, evac, and subway.

I get why they do it, however it's pretty easy to tell if people are in there trying to just level up or if they are in there to dick around. Why be a dick to the ones that aren't trying to start shite? There are plenty in there to do that with. I guess I just don't really see the enjoyment out of gunning someone down from behind who isn't even trying to fight.

Ok, here's what I don't get. I've seen your build. Why deliberately go frick with the fresh 30's & 40's in DZ01-DZ03 if those 6 things are your goal?

Mowing down undergeared people is not preparing you for supply drops. You'll get more XP in 05-06 than you would killing other agents in 01-03. People can go rogue in those zones as well, and I'llg give you the div tech point...so you're left with just fun & funny.

Why avoid the other high geared players when wanting PVP? Those fresh 30's aren't dropping shite that will benefit you either, but it would sure help them to get it extracted.

Someone has to be the "first domino" to fall.

Meaning, once the kill spam (agent has slain agent) and rogue indicators blink, other people (those who want to pvp and have gear) will know where to find it.

On console you can't just type "let's pvp in Bryant park", so you have to set bait by either setting extraction traps (calling in fake extractions with 1 shite item to bait people to come) or killing someone.


Going Rogue in high DZ isn't as fun due to too many npcs. That will surely change Tuesday.

Yeah, I know it's a dick move. All I can say is try it out yourself. It's very fun.

Just giving some insight as to why it occurs.


It's going to be worse after the patch if you are in the low bracket. Everyone will know you aren't geared and will ambush no matter what.

actually going to make it worse. 160+ gear score for one bracket and anything lower in the the bracket. They have already confirmed that 160ish is all purple gear with a few lvl 30 HE items. You think the guy that barely gets into the 160+ bracket has a chance against someone in all lvl 31 optimized gear? Not a chance.

Yeah.. if the low bracket has ppl in purples, and all bosses drop HE now...people will stay in the low bracket for 1 day?

Then graduate up and deal with people in all lvl 32 recalibrated HEs who want to do nothing else but farm other agents.

Yikes

Best dz map I've seen yet



The three DT chests SE of the library are up often.

This map has errors. There aren't two bosses in the Pit. That green dot in the street should be for midtown music (which has no boss dot.)

The subway boss indicators up north aren't exact either but that's ok.
