had an awesome time in the DZ last night. Finally hit 30, and ran the Dailies first. My gear was still crap though, b/c i hadn't bought or crafted anything up to that point. 3 friends and I venture into the DZ and in the first chest we came across I got a socom m1a. I was pretty stoked, b/c i was currently using a blue first wave m1a, and sorely needed a better one.
We went straight to one of the DZ01 extraction areas, but a group of 4 came in behind us and used up all the tie-ons wile we were dealing with NPCs. So we call for another extraction, but these guys just hung around even though they just loaded off their gear, so we left and went all the way up to DZ 03 to extract. I was able to get my SOCOM safely extracted for later.
After that, we went on up to DZ04 (we were also trying to unlock all the safehouses, so we kept pushing up). One of my friends got a HE weapon drop. We ran to an extraction (they called it the library, but i honestly don't know). While waiting on the extraction, we notice Rogue indicators on the edges of our radar. When we checked the map, there were EIGHT of them heading to our extraction zone. we high-tailed it out of there, and spent a really long time just ducking around the map. Unless they pinged us (or we started an extraction), they wouldn't know where we were.
We ended up between the rogues and a group of cleaners at one point, and i died. I respawned with the rogues in-between me and my friends, and had to make a huge sweep around the dark zone by myself. The rogues finally went back down to DZ02-03 and stayed down there the rest of the night, and we were able to extract my friend's HE in DZ05.
After last night, I have purple gear in almost every slot. I just have to get my DZ level up so that i can buy HE blueprints and start crafting.
That was definitely a fun time trying to avoid 8 rogues.
