I like the fix adding how you can heal neutral players in DZ. I've found just as many people willing to play nice in DZ as I have people trying to wreck your $#@!. And it might help party up with randoms if you acts of kindness can lead to a buddy who will fight the good fight with you.

So wait when we die in DZ it drops our primary weapons? Or I'm confused because if he took someone else's gear wouldn't he have to extract, head to BoO, equip, then go back to DZ?

Also, here are the patch notes for what will be included in the patch. Really like the changes to chests in the dark zone. Makes the level 30 chests actually worth while.

What he said.

Patch came out broken and **** went insane. People pulling dozens of HE weapons and DZ Ranks in short order.

---

quote:

---

Bullet King was still farmable, and was dropping the full HE loot table instead of just Cadecus

---

quote:

---

BK was not only still respawning, they opened up his loot table, so instead of just Caduceus, he had a full HE loot table.

Also they removed ANY penalty from the DZ for going rogue, regardless of level. However, they left in the rewards for killing a rogue. So people were trading rogue status for free one-way exp.
