Minor (but potentially important correction) You can actually get a total of 140 phoenix credits from uplay rewards. 90 total from 3 x 30 PC packs, and 50 from the pro go bag. This is important because it can allow a fresh 30 to immediately buy a high end expanded capacity mag blueprint, which will make life a hell of a lot easier
here's a few problems. you get the damascus blueprint as a one time reward for completing the general assembly mission, you can't get a High end as a reward any subsequent time afterwards. the two bosses raptor and domino have a slight chance to drop high end loot each and both drop Phoenix creds, so it is slightly more rewarding than regular missions. however that leads me to point number 2: bosses of any kind have a very small possibility to drop high end gear. dark zone bosses appear to have a higher chance, that as you did mention can be influenced by equipping gear with scavenging bonuses, if only being slight and moot. daily missions are easy enough to solo on hard, if you aren't an idiot, to get Phoenix credits so you can buy a few blueprints and craft yourself some halfway decent high end gear. challenging mode guarantees a High end piece of equipment each and every time you clear it, along with 30 Phoenix credits, however I need to advise you not to even to attempt it until you get around 60k health and close to 100k mark in health and dps respectively. doing solo challenge missions is... suicidal at best and I advise matchmaking. of course dark zone is still "easier" if you regularly play with mates, and once you hit level 30 with a full squad you probably won't be targeted by rogues as likely. (that doesn't mean they still won't, but at the least your likeliness of being targeted decreases.) if your lonely and don't normally play with other people then crafting is your ally, because then solo daily missions and craft you a few pieces of good gear. once your geared up match make the challenge mission and do it like that. odds are dark zones should be avoided if your solo, because you'll be prioritized by rogues. buuuuut: if you insist on exploring the dz on your own, keep in mind a lot of players are there just getting loot on their own and will probably just simply ignore you. farming bosses is the best way to earn high end gear in the dz. *in my own experience the way you can tell if there is a boss in some areas are part of a landmark. if the boss is active, the area will be dark blue and greyish blue when their dead. (as a note the actual color might change depending if you have the colorblind filter on. in my case I have protanopia filter active due to my own color blindness.) I hope that you guys that read this all the way got some more info about how to get high end gear. the uploader isn't wrong perse, but he certainly was flawed and left out crucial detail and was just outright wrong about some things.
+James Williams just uploaded a video showing all the ways i saw high ends drop (within the first 3-4 days the game was out) Also scavenging perk has been nerfed, it mainly helps you get division tech now. Not really good for getting high ends to drop.
Thanks for the tips...I am turned lvl 30 last week and starting to look for high-end gear...Got two high-end gear so far, and looking for more. I'll try to remember to use my scavenging skills more. Good vid!
+sadique tiouti does he need to throw grenades because his name is "short fuse"... it could mean he has a short temper... And pyro doesn't necessarily mean the guy uses a flame thrower, he may have been an arsonist at some point lol
As of today (March 22) you now have a chance to get high end gear from dark zone crates, due to the most recent updqte. also, bosses at all levels in the dark zone have a increased chance of dropping high end items
Thanks man... a good vid with enough detail.(PS... as a note, your voiceover was really quiet, not sure if it was just a glitch when making this but it would be good to ramp it up a couple notches. Cheers).
High end Blueprints don't drop (general assembly does but yeah) you can get them from the DZ06 vendor and or the vendor in the tech wing both use Phoenix credits and DZ rank 50 for the DZ vendor
A few days ago, right after hitting 30, Larae Barret dropped a High-End vest, playing Lexington on Hard. Also, I often seen a multiple item drop that will have purples for the first and second, START with a gold for the third, but after a second or two, that gold will then switch to a purple. Surely this is a bug, and not intended to be some kind of "If you pick up the drop inside 2 seconds you get a gold" mechanic?
can you farm Hornet on hard for the M1A just wondering because I don't know people that are willing to glitch farm him. And I was gonna run the mission over and over solo on hard until he drops.
Not just the daily challenge mission. you can play any challenge mission as many times as you want to each day and are guaranteed a high end piece of armor every time you finish
There have just been a patch that increased the changes of killing 31-32 bossen in the dark zone. It also does so the chest u open in the dark zone with dark zone keys can contain high end loot
You get the Damascus when you beat the General Assembly mission. At level 30 you unlock new gear, daily challenges, an achievement, and shows you Falcon lost on the map.
I've been running this location for awhile now and I've only got 1 piece of armour. I've got my scavenger upto 178% (there abouts) and still no M1 drop. I've pretty much got a hell of a lot of gold guns but I really want this lol.
How are you a level 30 already? I've been playing constantly the past 2-3 days and am only a lvl 13 is there a mission or something that gives a lot of XP?
you forgot about killing free roam named bosses outside the DZ. there is a map on reddit that shows all locations to find them. I got the cadaceus from bullet king in the times square zone near the safehouse
If you go to the terminal located at the back of the base of operations there is also a vendor that sales high end gear not sure if someone mentioned this already feeling lazy a to read the comments haha
i do the mission with the helicopter when i was 25 lvl alone lol they one shot me all the time but i was have insane dps and skill power because i was 48 lvl dark zone with very good gear
Guys did you guys know that you could spam the Ubisoft's Pheonix Credit pack or something? When on the redeem store I spammed my X button (ps4) On the pheonix credits And after that i got 300+ Pheonix Credits
dude when you kill a rogue agent you dont just get a high end the drop matters on what gear he has before extracting the game dosnt generate random loot for you it just gives you his
A1, Please help, not sure if you are aware of the bug that keeps players, from playing the game if your using a crafted high end backpack, but I just spoke with a rep Friday, and was informed that the fix for this issue, which leaves you stuck at a connecting screen unable to enter the game, will not be fixed until April 12th. This is not cool and I have never played a game that, I paid for that would make you wait 2 weeks, to get access to play the game. I did not argue with rep. about this because, in reading about this issue their are may more people who have the similar issue, who got kicked or banned for raising question on why it would take so long. Also, I have been locked out since March 31st, but there are other that have been locked out way longer (almost a month). This can not be acceptable!! I'm not sure if you can help, but we need someone with a bigger voice than us to speak up about this. I'm pasting in my conversation if it will help. ( I took out the reps name)(4/1/2016 3:41:14 AM): Thank you for contacting Ubisoft Live Support. Please give me a moment to read your question, and I'll be with you shortly. Me (4/1/2016 3:41:33 AM): cool thank you (4/1/2016 3:45:54 AM): one moment Me (4/1/2016 3:46:18 AM): ok (4/1/2016 3:48:43 AM): the information you have read is correct. the patch will be deployed april 12th, which should rectify this issue. it is not a matter of "waiting to help people" rather we are making sure that this is going to be a well packaged and final resolution for this particular problem Me (4/1/2016 3:51:05 AM): ok, just really sucks, but thank you for giving a clear answer now i can stop hoping that it will happen sooner. Really was looking forward to playing on my time off, but thanks again and guess i will just have to wait. (4/1/2016 3:51:53 AM): if there are any further updates to this you will be notified Me (4/1/2016 3:52:32 AM): cool thanks again for the straight answer (4/1/2016 3:53:31 AM): no problem Me (4/1/2016 3:53:46 AM): have a good one Thank you for what every help you can provideBumson
I have never received a high end item from the challenging missions. Not saying its not possible but I have done 4 of them. I guess it may be RND based.
+Vikram Singh its way too hard for a new lvl 30. You will be one shotted, and wont even get past the entrance of most of the challenge modes. And at the moment, you will probably have lvl 27/28 items (blues, greens, purples) Do the dailies to farm Pheonix credits for high end blueprints, the dailies drop lvl 30 purple items, which should make one fully equipped with a minimum lvl 30 items before trying out that mode.
+LKA OtaconAlonsus that shit pisses me off im trying to do a mission and they dint evwn have like a lvl 29 guns they have like all blues and i have to quit fast travel to the mission and matchmake again

Thanks for the tips...I am turned lvl 30 last week and starting to look for high-end gear...Got two high-end gear so far, and looking for more. I'll try to remember to use my scavenging skills more. Good vid!
Who was drunk when they made these names for the bosses
Ikr
No lie I saw a guy name pyro, and he wasn't even a damn cleaner!!!😭😭😭😭
+sadique tiouti does he need to throw grenades because his name is "short fuse"... it could mean he has a short temper... And pyro doesn't necessarily mean the guy uses a flame thrower, he may have been an arsonist at some point lol
Buck shot for a sniper boss....
+MegaAkamara theyre canadian. nuff said
As of today (March 22) you now have a chance to get high end gear from dark zone crates, due to the most recent updqte. also, bosses at all levels in the dark zone have a increased chance of dropping high end items
+Stephen Marshall thank you
Very straightforward and informative. First video I saw and it helped me a lot. Thanks
Lmao the way you said "walk over the dead bodies of the people youve killed in the darkzone"
Thanks man... a good vid with enough detail.(PS... as a note, your voiceover was really quiet, not sure if it was just a glitch when making this but it would be good to ramp it up a couple notches. Cheers).
+tropolite thanks
+A1Getdismoney you have ps4 can you please help me on some missions
drinking game: take a shot every time he says high end gear
LMAO
In my opinion, farm the lincon tunnel checkpoint on challenging. Its a 100% chance of you getting a high end.
+BanefulEagle yeah, you only get armor from challenging missions though, no weapons or mods/attachments
A1Getdismoney True.
I didn't know you get Phoenix keys from the bosses! Thanks, you earned a new sub
+Pluteaux thank you!
High end Blueprints don't drop (general assembly does but yeah) you can get them from the DZ06 vendor and or the vendor in the tech wing both use Phoenix credits and DZ rank 50 for the DZ vendor
Really helped me out man, appreciated it. Great vid btw welly explained
Absolutely loving the vid, will definitely check out some more. Thanks for creating great content!

5:15 how to open this store I finde it but no body there !!
pleasehelp
DZ boxes now drop high end gear.
You can trade.
Supply drops in DZ.
And garenteed -- names enemies will drop high ends.
thanks to the new update :)
Great video keep these up although if the Damascus pistol is a crafting item is it only level thirty to craft it?
Me and my buddy played this level together. We both got 3 high end items.
Search and Destroy mission rewards. Did the 3 in Murray Hill, got a high end Hybrid Holster
can you farm Hornet on hard for the M1A just wondering because I don't know people that are willing to glitch farm him. And I was gonna run the mission over and over solo on hard until he drops.

+Zaki Ettassi good stuff
there are four challenge missions you can every day. you can farm them to if you wish, I farm the Lexington event center challenge all the time
+Nnjasmurf yeah i tried to add that info in the description, hopefully people will read it
Thank you so much! This was very helpful!
Awesome dude I'm new to the division thanks for the info
I found my first high end weapon today killing a boss lvl 30 free roam area today, believe it was one of the sidequests.
What level did you start seeing high end gear? I'm level 19 on campaign and 23 in dark zone but still haven't seen any high end.
You don't get high ends until you've reached level 30
Thanks bro helped a ton
Do you have to beat the game to unlock daily missions? I don't see them on my map. 90% across medical, technical & security & level 25.
+Luke you need to be lvl 30
+A1Getdismoney okay thanks bro
+Luke right now there are no daily missions, ppl believe its due to the update coming on tuesday
Awesome video! Thanks!
Thanks this actually really jelped
Bro everybody gets the Damascus when you reach level 30
+IWantSomeCornxx no you get it as a reward for the general assambly mission, when you do it the first time.
You get the Damascus when you beat the General Assembly mission. At level 30 you unlock new gear, daily challenges, an achievement, and shows you Falcon lost on the map.
I got the pistol at rank 27 because we did the mission now I keep making the pistol to sell for $50,000-$75,000
+CJ Slammer what's falcon lost (I've only been rank 30 since yesterday so I'm still a noob)
+Police 159 the upcoming incursion they are adding. people speculate it'll be a raid or dungeon type.
Starting Tuesday March 22, Dark Zone chests that require a key will begin to drop high end items
+Elliot Reddinger looking forward to it!
do darkzone key chests ever drop a high end? even a slightest chance??
Yeah, I got a high end grip from one.
Great video, man. Thanks ^_^
The scavenging perk doesn't necessarily increase chances to get high end gear. It increases how much loot/credits you receive when you kill/loot, etc.
No it lets you find better items
Actually, It was never proven.
We don't know the actual effects of it, since Ubisoft never really explained anything concerning the game.
+jayton 367 no the 25% more items and credits you can get on high end crafted knee pads gives you that
It says, word for word, "... chance of finding more and BETTER items"
I just farm Lexington on hard. 8-12 minutes a run, 5-7 runs for a high end. no chance of it getting stolen, and Phoenix credits for days
I've been grinding challenge mode for past week...still no high end drop
I've been running this location for awhile now and I've only got 1 piece of armour. I've got my scavenger upto 178% (there abouts) and still no M1 drop. I've pretty much got a hell of a lot of gold guns but I really want this lol.
My friend killed a named boss gets a high end then goes opens the chest right next to the boss and gets another high end
Thanks g really helped
How are you a level 30 already? I've been playing constantly the past 2-3 days and am only a lvl 13 is there a mission or something that gives a lot of XP?
Are you sure you're doing missions? If you've been playing for 2-3 days I think you should be a higher level then that
I'm lvl 30, just do every mission you see. The missions in the top right are harder, but give more xp
Im level 30 only took me 3 days just get your friends and do missions and side missions and you'll be level 30 in no time
I was lvl 30 thursday, best way is doing all side missions, they'll boost you up quick
I went from 1-30 in a day and a half. Grind those missions and side missions. If you play with a group it'll go by faster :)
do I have to be level 30 for high end gear and weapons???
#1 you dont get high end gear. You get the demascis blueprint. Aka a pistol. Everyone gets that the fist time they beat it.
Good vid man
I just did campaign missions on hard. They drop 2 every time
patches have been made since this was uploaded, but thanks anyways
you forgot about killing free roam named bosses outside the DZ. there is a map on reddit that shows all locations to find them. I got the cadaceus from bullet king in the times square zone near the safehouse
+Boris brizuela yeah i tried to add it to the description, i've yet to receive one from those bosses though. not lucky enough
+A1Getdismoney haha sorry but I got it on my second try lol
+A1Getdismoney oh but my scavenging is 103%
today i saw 2superior gears laying down and there was literally 5bosses there i just ran by them and took the superior gear
Thank you this is so helpful what console are you on?
+Dark Cherry ps4 for now
I just got a high-end m60 drop from Scarecrow boss (the rogue agent boss) on the hard daily
Thanks for your video A1Getdismoney it was really insteresting.
Nice video, thanks
Your good g thank you I got a lot of high gear
Where do you spend Phoenix credits?
If you go to the terminal located at the back of the base of operations there is also a vendor that sales high end gear not sure if someone mentioned this already feeling lazy a to read the comments haha
I think there was a patch that buffed the chances for high end gear I get high end stuff from chests all the time
was boutta start counting how many times bro said "high end gear" lmao
i do the mission with the helicopter when i was 25 lvl alone lol they one shot me all the time but i was have insane dps and skill power because i was 48 lvl dark zone with very good gear
Same here (generally assembly) me and my cousin played it and we both got the high end weapon
Anybody know where to get a golden MP7? Can't seem to find one anywhere.
Thank you for the help
Where do you go to see scavanger perk at ?
+Kahlil Patterson some armor has it, I've also found it on mods that can be added on armor
what is that site on your srs
-just earned a sub
where do you get your weapon skins?
+EVATE GAMING challenging missions/appearance vendor in the base (supply line upgrade in security wing)
The special vendor doesn't sell blueprints when I go and see him ?
are you lvl 30? do you have the tech wing upgraded? I can't recall which upgrade it is b/c I"m not online atm.
+A1Getdismoney did you copy the TH-camr Alex wasabi he always says what it is what it do in his intro
Itz Phantom
i used that intro before he started uploading videos... so no
you can kill named enemies from the daily hard and challenging i got a 1911 on daily hard but un compound gives you the blueprint garenteed
+Kiefer Botelho yup, blueprint is guaranteed the first time you do it, but you can also get other high ends to drop as well
Oh dude I stole a high end mask out of some guys dark zone box, u can defo get golds from them :)
I actually got a high end armor mod from a keyed dark zone chest today
Yeah in the new update they changed the chests so that the level 30 ones can drop purples and the ones that need dark zone keys can drop high ends
You can get it from dark zone chests as well as incursion but u probably already know that :)
You can get high end weapons from the dark zone crates using the keys, a friend just got one
+Noah White yeh, they updated it today. From now on you can get high end gear from dark zone chest that require keys
My scavenging is at 94%. Is that good?
Guys did you guys know that you could spam the Ubisoft's Pheonix Credit pack or something?
When on the redeem store
I spammed my X button (ps4)
On the pheonix credits
And after that i got 300+ Pheonix Credits
dude when you kill a rogue agent you dont just get a high end the drop matters on what gear he has before extracting the game dosnt generate random loot for you it just gives you his
+Badassbowe ★ CSGO ★ Yeah i didn't say the game generates it, but thanks for clarifying

I have got three high end guns from doing the daily missions on hard even tho it don't say you will
+andy cook Same here
in the genrial assembly the Damascus I'd a mission reward
Do a live stream also i just subed
I have never received a high end item from the challenging missions. Not saying its not possible but I have done 4 of them. I guess it may be RND based.
+Alex Carr challenging missions have guaranteed high end armor drops.
completed this game in 14.56 hrs
Please youtubers, stop telling fresh lvl 30 players to do challenging mode. It's not funny at all. Thanks.
what do you mean? i just turned 30
+Vikram Singh its way too hard for a new lvl 30. You will be one shotted, and wont even get past the entrance of most of the challenge modes. And at the moment, you will probably have lvl 27/28 items (blues, greens, purples) Do the dailies to farm Pheonix credits for high end blueprints, the dailies drop lvl 30 purple items, which should make one fully equipped with a minimum lvl 30 items before trying out that mode.
+LKA OtaconAlonsus Its a joke, lighten up. It's not like in the dark zone where you lose things if you die.
+Vikram Singh if you play challenging mode then go for lexington cause its the easiest
+LKA OtaconAlonsus that shit pisses me off im trying to do a mission and they dint evwn have like a lvl 29 guns they have like all blues and i have to quit fast travel to the mission and matchmake again
thank you so much
Level 9. Learns about the DZ. Hops fence. Comes to a cross road. Sees five purple dude . Five ak's come out. dead before a bullet even hits him 😂😂😂😂
Update just came out btw and you can get high end in dark zone chests :)
+IamGraham thanks for the heads up
how do you get high end weapons when your level 12 (dz lvl 5)
Eclusion_ApeXz you dont
i think You forgot the gerneral challenging missions... There You Can get Gold loot 2
the blueprint happen to everyone it's the same gun
I have gotten a High end scope from a Dark zone chest only recently. Just one tho.
My friend had got a high end back pack from a regular Dark chest chest
My scavenging is 140% and I have not
gotten one single high end drop in the dark soon
Same here. My scavenging is 186 and other people in my group get high end drops more than I do. Their scavenging is lower as well. Smh
Pretty sure scavenging refers to the currency you pick up from the ground.
+Brandon Wilkinson no, under the character screen, there is another category for that.
how ya get that uniform ?
i think its just regular clothes i got either from supply line vendor or civilians after giving them consumables.
+A1Getdismoney you can also get high end from supply drops at darkzone
I got a high end pistol and was ready to extract it, then 2 rogue agents killed me :(
everyone get that weapon blueprint when you complete that mission
I did get a high end gear from a chest in the Dark Zone.
Every time I go to that vendor nothing shows up
You can get high ends out of the Scavenger Crate in the base of operations
+TheDigiman12 really?
Its not supper common, but it is possible to get high ends from dark zone keys.
the Damascus is a guaranteed drop for the last mission
your character looks like childish gambino lol
Ey he does
"Till 3005"
Mine looks exactly like childish gambino
