If you have any questions, comments, or feedback then PLEASE leave it down here, and if you're already a PVP player- leave your own advice + tips! Let's make this as constructive as it can possibly be. Thank you all so much for your viewership, I hope this guide helps!
I would say one tip is learn how your oppent plays. It usually takes you dying once but within that moment I am able to determine what build is being used, how its being used, when they push or pull back and if they are group reliant.
@@lincoln9607 Not sure about underrated, alot of top streamers i follow have nothing but respect for how he holds himself and plays a fair game. Mention his name in a live feed you'll not see anyone say a bad thing about him..maybe he deserves more subs, sure, but as a whole he's one of the more liked streamers on this platform. But i get what you mean if people don't know about him they certainly should.
I've been playing the division daylly since it's launch day and never really enjoyed pvp. It's the first time I felt any kind of desire to engage in it. Good job!
@@RogueGold I will. Starting farming for some gear pieces I think I need to get in there with at least a chance. All the times I went into the DZ with friends I played medic so I've got no gear pvp focused. Anyway just wanted you to know your work on this video was appreciated.
@@aggielucero2784I bet you play ghost recon :-) Yep some things could be fun, like the ability to make more moves, lying flat, crawling, climbing. All the possibilities you talked about but with a realistic approach on what you could carry with you at any moment.
It has 0 balance, nothing like div 1 , if I want to pvp I go back to div 1 , well really I go back to div 1 for everything as it's way better in every aspect
Same I been playing since day one of division one ( I miss the old school DZ so much) but after not playing div 2 for over a year and getting back into it videos like this are life savers (literally in game) to get you back up to speed with the meta/gameplay etc, big thanks
I love the division 1 and 2 ESPECIALLY 2. When I started PVP I immediately stopped because I wasn't use to everything I shoot at feels like I'm shooting with airsoft rounds but after userstanding it a bit more and being patient forcing myself to get use to it and understanding builds I fell in love. Believe it or not I still hit Division 1 but 2 is where it's at.
this is how I feel but for me I think it’s even worse because coming from destiny the ttk is so quick and I can’t get used to shooting somebody with a full mag of a shotgun and they don’t die or I get dunked on by someone hiding behind a shield
Probably late, but I am a former PVE main, I watched this to try to learn PVP for the DZ, and I went on a manhunt, and had a lot of adrenaline, and the most fun I've had gaming in a long time! Thank you so much for making this guide!
Here is an overlooked setting. We sometimes are forced to shoot through loot drops and it can make visibility terrible. Making loot beam visible>off will make it a very narrow beam which will make visibility 99% better. What this does is allow us to see through the loot beams without having to aim down sight, they are always the size as when aiming.
Phenomenal explanation, I was pretty decent on the pvp spectrum, but this video still helped out a lot and with the proper knowledge of the downsides of your builds, you can definitely strategically play around those weaknesses and force opponents into situations where your build dominates, overall 10/10 guide with easy to understand examples of your topics and even build tips to help newer players.
Thanks for the video! I'm a graduate! I've been playing solo for going on two years now and only recently decided to put some work in a DZ build. I've touched on some of your suggestions, but you certainly revealed many more. Above all, thanks for your talent at concisely explaining things in a way that everyone can understand. It is clear when people don't actually care if others are helped or not and you obviously really do care about the rest of us. I hope you continue with your educational videos man!
Man, I appreciate you doing this bro. I'm shd 2500 but struggle in the DZ. Some of the tactics i know, but you definitely taught me a few things with this video. Keep doing what you do brother 👍👍
great video champ. Long, but great. My biggest bit of advice to players is just give it ago. The only way to learn is to try and please don't resort to cheesy status effects if you die once. Its a game, don't be scared of dying. Learn the games mechanics and adjust settings and even builds to suit yourself. Understand everyone in the game is at different levels of ability, and every dog has their day. You might be on top today but get farmed tomorrow, its just the way it is, no one is unbeatable. But tbh just have fun, because that why we all game, to have fun.
So helpful! Thank you so much for doing this video. I feel encouraged to give it more of a go. I am not a fan of PVP in general because I always felt it so unfair especially for beginners. I have been playing for about 4 or 5 months and only attempted the Dark Zone twice now. But you have encouraged me to go back. I especially found the loadout information the most help. I have to work on getting the gear I need to change things up but over time I will get a better understanding of what I need to know and do. Thank you!
Alright lemme just say I haven't even seen the entire video yet but with that intro and the respect and passion you showed I have to sub to you. Well done my dude.
Man, so many things I want to comment on regarding this video, ALL good. First off, thank you! You’ve answered A LOT of my questions. I’ve been a fairly passive, solo campaign player for the almost year or so that I’ve played 1 & 2. I finally broke down and bought the year pass, am doing a little team work and on the 30th floor of Summit. I’ve barely ventured into the DZ because although I’m high enough level, nearly everyone who’s there already will easily kill me in a second. A big part of that is just not knowing about builds, good strategies and not playing on a team much. There’s so many of the acronyms and slang that I don’t know that I’ve paused game play a lot to look stuff up. I think I’ve done pretty well on my own and know most of the unstated “rules” but this vid has filled in a lot of the blanks, particularly now that I’ve done the campaign long enough that it’s getting repetitive and boring. So much so that I go back to 1 to play Survival and the other side stuff. I’m really looking forward to getting home tonight and doing your recommended build! One question though-does the build stand up against campaign play bad guys/Summit as well as it does in PVP? Thank you man, hope to go against you some day in the DZ just for fun!
Super glad it helped out, thank you for the kind words! The build is definitely fine-tuned for PVP. It will absolutely work and perform well in PVE activities, but there are probably some slight changes I would make if I were going to focus it on PVE
Just started playing div2 mate,have always enjoyed the pvp element of gaming more than pve so when I got stuck into the pvp side of this game I had no idea it mattered what you built I just went balls deep with the guns I had and went in on people..hindsight has shown me why I lost some of the fights I lost that I probably should've won due to being out gunned or them having a decent build while I was still on my noob status, this guide has really opened my eyes on where to direct myself on my builds an how to approach some situations,cheers dude
I'm pretty weak in PvP, always wondered what piece of brands people were using and why, this video explains that perfectly. Thank you :) Will try out some of these tips in the future
This was a really well put together guide. I've dabbled into Division's PVP both in Div 1 & 2. It's been a lot of fun when I go looking for it, though it can be annoying at times too. Seems these days most PVPers will ignore the PVE players that are just farming landmarks which is pretty nice. Let's everyone just kinda experience what the DZ has.
I just graduated from your course I reached the end. Thank you for taking the time and showing your experience tips for a better enjoyment of the dark zone. Good clear and concise video of the best I've seen for pvp in Division 2. regards !!
i honestly get discouraged by PVP, and dark zone, i always just get killed so easily so i dont really enjoy it because i havent put 200 hours into the game building gear and what not
Well done mate, this is a really good comprehensive guide. I’ve been going more and more into the DZ, I love it more and more. I’ve even learnt something from this guide. I’m no pvp expert by any stretch of the imagination, but as you say, getting in there is half the battle. Keep doing what you do Rogue.
Amazing guide!! Been solo pvp'ing div2 dz for a bit now and got my first manhunt the other day, 1 on 3. This really helps me out and explains a bunch of stuff I was having trouble doing/figuring out
Amazing guide. Today I played a lot of dz with teamates from the clan. I could kill even 1vs2 and survive thanks to your advices (Fight after healing) but the best I had. 6 guys where follow me almost 2 minutes and I was still running using environment as you said 🤣🤣 They almost made me cry of fun.
Great video. Getting back into Div 2. But playing DZ and Conflict mainly to get better. My movement is biggest weakness. Builds are perfect. Just being out positioned and manoeuvred currently. Thanks for the info it’s helping me loads.
@@RogueGold these groups at proficiency 20/21 are no joke if you’re low yourself. They hit hard and take a punch. I still don’t after years see how some players move so fast and turn on a dime.
Really useful video, feel like anyone who's even interested in the DZ should see this. Has definitely given me much more to think about as someone who really enjoys the dsrkzone.
Late comment here but I've always been more of a PvE kind of player and I always thought the PvP in this game looked really iffy and like something I wouldn't enjoy. But I recently got into playing conflict and I been having a blast despite me running my PvE builds at 1st lol I found out quick that I needed some tips and this video helped me a lot thank you a lot for it. I personally still am against going rogue in the DZ I just kind of view it as a trolly dick move to do, I dedicated a lot of my time in Division 1 to protecting players from Rogues but I do enjoy conflict quite a bit now, though I still am more partial to the PvE side of things
Nice job, as a novice pvp player i found a couple things that i didn't really understand very helpful, like the knowing when the medkit buff is going to run out, how moving is better than standing. Liked and shared. Very good video and very well put together, actually found the hour flew buy, really held my ettention GG.
Hey man, I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for this video. I've always been interested in the "test" of pvp but the complexity of it was a definite turn off. This answered just about all if my questions and set me in a direction. Big thanks!!! #salute
Great video RG! This is what I've been waiting for. I have been playing The Division since D1 and I am shite as a PVP player, but I enjoy it so I keep at it. I've had guys laugh and say, "this guy again?", when they have already put me down 6 or 7 times and I come back at them. I know I'm not going to take them down, but I try to get at least one. It doesn't usually end up that way, but whatever.....I have fun. I really liked the live commentary of you playing as a rogue and non rogue agent. That's something that I have been looking for and I thought you did an excellent job of explaining your thought process from both sides; I would love to see more of that. Anyway, thanks again and keep up the good work. p.s. I didn't mind the length of the video.
As far as the animation part of the video, I think it woulda been good to mention the emp sticky. Yeah it stops them from using skills but most people use just to stagger you. You can’t do anything while in the stagger animation. Players quickly learn not to vault over, use ropes, or climb while in combat. And a good way that I’ve found to counter the emp crutches out there to switch over to Sawyers Kneepads. You can’t get staggered.
Conflict player here, and on one of the more dominant teams. Conflict does suck for many people, especially new players. But what I will say to add, is movement in conflict is also critical, the same rules apply there as do in DZ mostly. Where it differs is the environment, there's realistically not a lot of places you can run or hide, you do need to stay and fight most of the time since your options to retreat are low. There's basically only at most 3 pathways from any place, often narrowing into a choke point. So the good teams know these choke points and will trap you there as you retreat. This is a frustrating point and where many will start accusing of cheating (walls, etc.).
Thank you so much for making this, I've been wanting to get back into pvp but kinda lost my confidence I know it's a video game but confidence effects me and your video has helped give me a push, I know it was made in February but that's me just coming across it, so a very big thank you . I just realised I never had the bell to all my bad cheers 🏴
Oh man I remember getting killed by you in my first DZ outing. I don't typically play PvP games anyway, and it was terrifying to see your tag go rogue over and over again. It was an anxiety inducing experience. This was a great video BTW.
This was great! Even though Im not a PvP'er, I can appreciate all the hard work you put into this. I wish there was a way to experience the DZ without worrying about Rogues. Honestly, after a handful of extremely negative experiences I have yet to return to the DZ. Being able to opt out of the PvP aspect would be really nice. Pipe dream.
Great vid RG...i follow alot of your vids..dont know how i miss this one...but very imformative for someone like me whos trying to step there pvp game up...thx
@@RogueGold it's still downloading. My friend recommended this to me 2 years ago but due to life I forgot about it. So I'm excited and no I still have have 30 minutes left because I fell asleep trying to compartmentalize the Information. I'll let you know after I watch it fully.
@@RogueGold OK Fully Finished the guide Agree with all of the Tactical guide Breaking line of sight knowing the lay of the land.( Which sounds Exciting!) I need to experience the Pve side of it more to apply the knowledge first hand. Overall thank you for doing you best! Does this game have cross play by the way?
@@RogueGold no worries I'm indifferent to it. But it does effect me so I wanted to know. Also do you get one shott3d by an SMG over 100m? I did. Twice. Is that a bug?
Great video! Really appreciate the hints. I tried some dz and conflict but kept getting in situations where I died in 2 seconds, but emptied 2 clips into people who wouldn't die so I really needed some advice on how to even start making a decent build. I look forward to putting this all to use. 😊 At least now when I get obliterated I'll have some basic ideas of how to improve
Very good points only thing I'd say is CURRENTLY, Contractors, Foxs, Coyotes, Unbreakable, In Sync, Adrenaline Rush, and Shield are IDEAL for beginners because it essentially carries the player 100%. Contractors, Foxs and Coyotes give the damage without having to think about anything (just land your shots). Adrenaline Rush gives you bonus armor for well.. Standing next to the opponent. Of course what you said about Unbreakable. Then the shield goes with the damage aspect of things. A skilled player can kill with ANYTHING, a ehh player is RELIANT on a "carry me build" Situational Awareness is the best piece of info this whole video.
I watched it fully as I want to get my last trophies legit. I am not sure if that build is still good today but I have the clue now how to build for PvP. Now just to get kills on those rogue agents in every DZ and hijack extraction... wish my good hunting ;)
Good luck! The build I show in there is still generally a good one, with a few tweaks made over time. This videos shows one of my most up-to-date favorites: th-cam.com/video/wfhdCDk5U5E/w-d-xo.html
Got rogued’ on 5 time in a row and 3 exotic weapons taken away on the same day by different people and groups across 3 different dark zones taken me here to this video just to know how to defend myself.
needed this video more than anything. I went to DZ a couple times but got my ass handed to me every time, and now i'm scared to go back. XD but i guess now is the right time to properly learn it, at level 400+... because if not now, when? ;p I'm not very good I think, at least i die a lot to other players, so I always avoid confrontation, and even then someone finds me and shreds me.
I’m here because I’m tired of being targeted as a shit player when I do pvp. I’m here to learn and actually become the villain. I vow to get good at pvp just to ruin others experience. It’s all I’ve experienced in this game.
Thank you for this! I'm the worst pvp player ever. I hardly ever go in the dz because of that. When I do, I just pray it's an empty server so I can farm dz credits. Gonna take these tips and try to get better. Thanks again brother! God bless agent!
I was an avid DZ hater but me and 3 buds, one of which was brand new with less than a day of play time and yet we went into DZE has a successful 25 minutes and now I’m thinking of running DZ more often Edit: I was already level 45 at the time and I have had good runs when I was by myself, but I hated it, until I had my three idiot friends and somehow we had a good run until we found a Rogue duo that killed us for really no reason, we had no loot. I got mad messaged him, and we ended on a good note somehow lmao
I've been playing division since the first one and I love the concept of the dark zone of the franchise but I just yea I had a bad time with pvp I always felt like it was unbalanced I get one or 2 shot by people but felt like the dz is the best place to get gear but I'm a easy target unless I really can put the time in I been watching your channel to help me get back into the game tho I havnt played in a year so I'm looking forward to going into it with more knowledge I don't even know how alot of systems work like the expertise system and such
Thank you! I havnt played since the season where it was about rescuing people that got kidnapped I think it was mendezes gf or something so I'm a bit out of the loop with the story my question is can I get answers to stuff I missed since then in game or do I need to look on TH-cam? I was more a casual player just doing pve and doing the whole grind missions and battle passes and such I felt so weak all the time so I'm hoping this time around I'm gonna look into your content for some builds that can help me feel stronger and maybe try to learn systems that would increase my power level on stuff even more if possible is that like crafting or something? I'm not sure I always felt weak to do stuff over hard difficulty
I can't recall if I answered any of these on stream, but here's links that should help answer most of that: Legacy Manhunt System (story catch-up): th-cam.com/video/-FPS5GflEAs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vAYEw0_pvZx3mrBK Top 2024 Recommended Builds: th-cam.com/video/z3YH2OamSfs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=myvKYMvVMzYD7ZBP Expertise Breakdown (for extra power): th-cam.com/video/TTnyZXMwHu4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=CWG5SndMXoExJYG2
You did I was in the stream and asked and you did so thanks again man! And thank u even more for the links! I been more of a casual player and didn't really know anyone to help me with stuff I been a solo player mostly so I found you on TH-cam and it's been alot of help! I think the first video I watched was like one about explaining how the loot works and it made things make more sense for me
Thanks for the video still not the biggest fan of the darkzone because of the skill gap but once I level up I will be back os there an advantage of being rogue
I love the dark zone but I don’t love the fact that every time I run into a group of 4 I get killed immediately even if I don’t have any loot. If I have loot it’s more understandable but a 4v1 is fucked up so I usually avoid it.
Great video helped a lot as don't do well in DZ ! Need to get a better build as too much red so that I kinda mirror your base build then adapt as tome goes on. Oh and thanks to your pal 👍
I actually prefer Conflict to the DZ. Conflict is just about combat. I've been killed in the DZ when fighting in landmarks and tying my bag onto the rope. People killing for my credits. People take advantage of these situations. Shared the video.
Same, i actually injoy conflict, i like that there's no radar to. Just shows in this game different strokes for different folk's. But saying that I do want to venture more into dz just for something new to do.
I’m that one crazy SOB who runs 6 red 4 piece hackstep lady death and glass cannon and 99.99% I lose every battle. That .01% seeing someone get absolutely destroyed is the best feeling ever 😂
All tips and tricks are worth considering butttt the only way to get good at PvP in this game is to just throw yourself in to it. My single biggest piece of advice if you are thinking about playing PvP is just to ignore all the nonsense on Reddit 🤣 Good video I literally have no idea why they removed the radar in Conflict. I've played a TONNE OF conflict but this has always baffled me. It completely kills the game mode.
Сделай пожалуйста плейлист с облучающими видео, чтобы было проще искать необходимые видео. Я не знаю английского языка и мне трудно искать информацию. Спасибо) И хотелось бы увидеть что-то интересное про коррупцию в системе, так как очень нравится билд и принципы игры с ним и вариации)
As far as builds run whatever you have to.. The people crying about it will be Cartharsis, Everyday carrier , shotgun 0layers who door camp run away and medkit push... Its so played out lol. So if you catch a sticky, you catch a sticky. Gotta love when there is 4 of them running the same exact build or with one healer lol. Given the state of the game now and the "damage tank meta" its whatever lol...
You still gain a small health bonus after each level past 1000, but you need to be around 30K SHD to actually give you as much health as armor... making health a respectable attribute... but you do get a small health boost with every SHD lvl
Hopefully the guide helped out somewhat! Here are links to my most current and tested PVP builds: th-cam.com/video/wfhdCDk5U5E/w-d-xo.html | th-cam.com/video/5ISwLc3aO48/w-d-xo.html

You can't tell me what to do!
New player. Like level 15 new. Can I still pvp or go into that area with players around my level? Or there is no level matchmaking.
I've been playing the division daylly since it's launch day and never really enjoyed pvp. It's the first time I felt any kind of desire to engage in it. Good job!

Thank you very much. So happy to help!
i honestly get discouraged by PVP, and dark zone, i always just get killed so easily so i dont really enjoy it because i havent put 200 hours into the game building gear and what not
Thank you for putting this guide together my dude! Great overview of basic PVP tactics and rationale. Well done
Super glad you enjoyed, thanks!!
Well done mate, this is a really good comprehensive guide. I’ve been going more and more into the DZ, I love it more and more. I’ve even learnt something from this guide. I’m no pvp expert by any stretch of the imagination, but as you say, getting in there is half the battle. Keep doing what you do Rogue.
Thank you so much Richard, love to hear it! See you in the DZ!
just got this game with a buddy and we’re loving it. can’t wait to play some pvp!
Nice!! Enjoy it, and definitely be patient with PVP. It's worth the steep learning curve!
Got this today I enjoyed the first one great info thankyou
You're welcome! Enjoy!
Best advice I have ever seen. I am super soft in DZ PVP and I am probably not great at the game also. This was a big help. 👍
So happy to hear that! Thank you!
Been waiting for this one. Thank you for all your hard work Rogue and always helping the community out
Thank you for watching!
Amazing guide!! Been solo pvp'ing div2 dz for a bit now and got my first manhunt the other day, 1 on 3. This really helps me out and explains a bunch of stuff I was having trouble doing/figuring out
That's so awesome to hear. Thanks for watching, and congrats on the solo manhunt! Keep it up!
Amazing guide. Today I played a lot of dz with teamates from the clan. I could kill even 1vs2 and survive thanks to your advices (Fight after healing) but the best I had. 6 guys where follow me almost 2 minutes and I was still running using environment as you said 🤣🤣 They almost made me cry of fun.
Coming back to this i did the conflict daily and got all 10 kills in first match. Thx dude
Yes!! Good stuff dude
NO Clickbait title
Straight to the point
Nice long Video full of good information ( so far)
I liked, commented and Subbed !!!
I appreciate that a lot, thank you!
Great video. Getting back into Div 2. But playing DZ and Conflict mainly to get better. My movement is biggest weakness. Builds are perfect. Just being out positioned and manoeuvred currently. Thanks for the info it’s helping me loads.
Super glad to hear it, keep pushing!
@@RogueGold these groups at proficiency 20/21 are no joke if you’re low yourself. They hit hard and take a punch. I still don’t after years see how some players move so fast and turn on a dime.
I'm a day one player... and that was a lot of great tips for any fledgling DZ player.
Glad you think so 🙏
Only thing I hate about pvp is when a group of 4 pick on a single player, lately I find it hard to find a good team to run with
Watching this AGAIN for the IDK how many times... How about a refreshed version of this video?
Takes a ton of work, but I am planning on a sort of half refresh in a Conflict-oriented beginners guide!
Really useful video, feel like anyone who's even interested in the DZ should see this. Has definitely given me much more to think about as someone who really enjoys the dsrkzone.
That's awesome to hear. Thank you Daniel!
Late comment here but I've always been more of a PvE kind of player and I always thought the PvP in this game looked really iffy and like something I wouldn't enjoy. But I recently got into playing conflict and I been having a blast despite me running my PvE builds at 1st lol I found out quick that I needed some tips and this video helped me a lot thank you a lot for it. I personally still am against going rogue in the DZ I just kind of view it as a trolly dick move to do, I dedicated a lot of my time in Division 1 to protecting players from Rogues but I do enjoy conflict quite a bit now, though I still am more partial to the PvE side of things
So glad to hear this helped you out 🙏 thanks for watching and I hope you keep enjoying!
thanks for the tips. Greetings from Bremen..
Happy to help!
Nice job, as a novice pvp player i found a couple things that i didn't really understand very helpful, like the knowing when the medkit buff is going to run out, how moving is better than standing. Liked and shared. Very good video and very well put together, actually found the hour flew buy, really held my ettention GG.
That's awesome to hear, thank you so much for sticking through it!
I came across this today and the settings alone had me like 🤦🏻♂️ No wonder I’m struggling. Thank you!
Happy to help! Hope you enjoy!
Hey man, I just wanted to take a minute and thank you for this video. I've always been interested in the "test" of pvp but the complexity of it was a definite turn off. This answered just about all if my questions and set me in a direction. Big thanks!!!
#salute
Really happy to hear that. I hope you enjoy your time with it!
Great video RG! This is what I've been waiting for. I have been playing The Division since D1 and I am shite as a PVP player, but I enjoy it so I keep at it. I've had guys laugh and say, "this guy again?", when they have already put me down 6 or 7 times and I come back at them. I know I'm not going to take them down, but I try to get at least one. It doesn't usually end up that way, but whatever.....I have fun. I really liked the live commentary of you playing as a rogue and non rogue agent. That's something that I have been looking for and I thought you did an excellent job of explaining your thought process from both sides; I would love to see more of that. Anyway, thanks again and keep up the good work. p.s. I didn't mind the length of the video.
Thank you very much Tom, I'm super glad it was helpful!
As far as the animation part of the video, I think it woulda been good to mention the emp sticky. Yeah it stops them from using skills but most people use just to stagger you. You can’t do anything while in the stagger animation. Players quickly learn not to vault over, use ropes, or climb while in combat.
And a good way that I’ve found to counter the emp crutches out there to switch over to Sawyers Kneepads. You can’t get staggered.
Great points!
Conflict player here, and on one of the more dominant teams. Conflict does suck for many people, especially new players. But what I will say to add, is movement in conflict is also critical, the same rules apply there as do in DZ mostly. Where it differs is the environment, there's realistically not a lot of places you can run or hide, you do need to stay and fight most of the time since your options to retreat are low. There's basically only at most 3 pathways from any place, often narrowing into a choke point. So the good teams know these choke points and will trap you there as you retreat. This is a frustrating point and where many will start accusing of cheating (walls, etc.).
Thank yo so much for sharing this!! So helpful. I lost count of how many times I've died in Dark Zone but love it anyway!
Happy to help. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for making this, I've been wanting to get back into pvp but kinda lost my confidence I know it's a video game but confidence effects me and your video has helped give me a push, I know it was made in February but that's me just coming across it, so a very big thank you . I just realised I never had the bell to all my bad cheers 🏴
Super glad you enjoyed, I hope you end up liking it!!
Oh man I remember getting killed by you in my first DZ outing. I don't typically play PvP games anyway, and it was terrifying to see your tag go rogue over and over again. It was an anxiety inducing experience. This was a great video BTW.
Lol! I'm so sorry, but glad you still had a fun experience. Thank you for watching!
Awesome Bro👍 it helped me out and I watched to the very end.
Awesome to hear!
This was great! Even though Im not a PvP'er, I can appreciate all the hard work you put into this.
I wish there was a way to experience the DZ without worrying about Rogues. Honestly, after a handful of extremely negative experiences I have yet to return to the DZ. Being able to opt out of the PvP aspect would be really nice. Pipe dream.
Glad you enjoyed, thank you for watching!
Great guide!!!! Thank you for all the guide you made, love your content 👍
Appreciate it!! 🙏
Just bought the division 2 after being a hardcore destiny player since taken king. Wish me luck 🍀
Wow! I was an avid Destiny player before Division as well. Welcome and hope you enjoy!
Great vid RG...i follow alot of your vids..dont know how i miss this one...but very imformative for someone like me whos trying to step there pvp game up...thx
Love to hear it, thank you!!
Just bought this as my personal Christmas Present. Good time to watch this guide. Although it is long....it's well structured! Thank you.
Hey, well thanks for sticking through it! And hope you like the game- it's certainly given me unmatched entertainment!
@@RogueGold it's still downloading. My friend recommended this to me 2 years ago but due to life I forgot about it. So I'm excited and no I still have have 30 minutes left because I fell asleep trying to compartmentalize the Information. I'll let you know after I watch it fully.
@@RogueGold OK Fully Finished the guide Agree with all of the Tactical guide Breaking line of sight knowing the lay of the land.( Which sounds Exciting!) I need to experience the Pve side of it more to apply the knowledge first hand. Overall thank you for doing you best! Does this game have cross play by the way?
@deadcut7282 No crossplay unfortunately. Hopefully in the future!
@@RogueGold no worries I'm indifferent to it. But it does effect me so I wanted to know. Also do you get one shott3d by an SMG over 100m? I did. Twice. Is that a bug?
Great video! Really appreciate the hints. I tried some dz and conflict but kept getting in situations where I died in 2 seconds, but emptied 2 clips into people who wouldn't die so I really needed some advice on how to even start making a decent build. I look forward to putting this all to use. 😊
At least now when I get obliterated I'll have some basic ideas of how to improve
Glad it was helpful!
@@RogueGold I mean... I'm still getting absolutely wrecked but at least I have some clue on what to do and where to focus my grinding 😅
Great stuff. Thanks a lot. I really liked the gameplay with commentary at the end.
Glad you enjoyed, thank you for watching!
Very good points only thing I'd say is CURRENTLY, Contractors, Foxs, Coyotes, Unbreakable, In Sync, Adrenaline Rush, and Shield are IDEAL for beginners because it essentially carries the player 100%.
Contractors, Foxs and Coyotes give the damage without having to think about anything (just land your shots).
Adrenaline Rush gives you bonus armor for well..
Standing next to the opponent. Of course what you said about Unbreakable.
Then the shield goes with the damage aspect of things.
A skilled player can kill with ANYTHING, a ehh player is RELIANT on a "carry me build"
Situational Awareness is the best piece of info this whole video.
Sheilds are easy to take out tbh.
@@lullie I run concussion on my AK for that very reason. My AK has 60% chc, 205.5% chd, and 80% HSD base before anything is even procd.
It's so funny how some "pvp" players cry about builds but use n-sync +shield like that's not cheesy lol the shield doesn't even proc companion 🤷🏾
@@lincoln9607 I personally do not run In Sync, Shield, Foxs, Coyotes, or Contractors on my pvp build.
@@Hook_em1108 nah I've seen u play...ur an AK guy lol...nah I like ur gameplay u play ur way...not everyone else's 💯
Watched all the way through, thank you for an excellent video.
Thank you so much, happy to be able to help!
I've always been pve player..now time to try pvp....thanks bro..
No problem, hope you have some fun!
I watched it fully as I want to get my last trophies legit. I am not sure if that build is still good today but I have the clue now how to build for PvP.
Now just to get kills on those rogue agents in every DZ and hijack extraction... wish my good hunting ;)
Good luck! The build I show in there is still generally a good one, with a few tweaks made over time. This videos shows one of my most up-to-date favorites: th-cam.com/video/wfhdCDk5U5E/w-d-xo.html
Thats truly a piece of Art
Thanks RG definitely a informative video! Like you said just put the time in experience is everything.
100%! Thanks for watching!
Got rogued’ on 5 time in a row and 3 exotic weapons taken away on the same day by different people and groups across 3 different dark zones taken me here to this video just to know how to defend myself.
Really hope it helps!
Thanks as always for the work...
Thanks for watching!
Thanks, learned a few things.
Glad to hear it!!
Bro, I played for 20 hours without knowing you could change fov :( thank you man
It's a game changer (literally!) Enjoy!
needed this video more than anything. I went to DZ a couple times but got my ass handed to me every time, and now i'm scared to go back. XD but i guess now is the right time to properly learn it, at level 400+... because if not now, when? ;p I'm not very good I think, at least i die a lot to other players, so I always avoid confrontation, and even then someone finds me and shreds me.
I’m here because I’m tired of being targeted as a shit player when I do pvp. I’m here to learn and actually become the villain. I vow to get good at pvp just to ruin others experience. It’s all I’ve experienced in this game.
what an excellent guide. I've been playing since launch and only just now feeling like maybe I should try to get a good DZ build up.
👊 Good luck!
Thank you for this! I'm the worst pvp player ever. I hardly ever go in the dz because of that. When I do, I just pray it's an empty server so I can farm dz credits. Gonna take these tips and try to get better. Thanks again brother! God bless agent!
Yay!! Let me know how things go, really hope you enjoy your time in there.
Nope. I got you beat on the worst! 😂
@@RogueGold i sure will
My dumbass has been going into DZ with Perfect Glass Canon wondering why my damage didn’t compare to theirs.😂
Really appreciate this. Definitely worth the time
So glad to hear that, thank you!!
I was an avid DZ hater but me and 3 buds, one of which was brand new with less than a day of play time and yet we went into DZE has a successful 25 minutes and now I’m thinking of running DZ more often
Edit: I was already level 45 at the time and I have had good runs when I was by myself, but I hated it, until I had my three idiot friends and somehow we had a good run until we found a Rogue duo that killed us for really no reason, we had no loot. I got mad messaged him, and we ended on a good note somehow lmao
A bit late on this video,but great guide,really made me look forward to getting back into the game again. Got my sub and like 👍.
Thank you so much man, glad you enjoyed!
Спасибо за видео. И теперь я готов! Увидимся к темной зоне) by SUFLEX
I've been playing division since the first one and I love the concept of the dark zone of the franchise but I just yea I had a bad time with pvp I always felt like it was unbalanced I get one or 2 shot by people but felt like the dz is the best place to get gear but I'm a easy target unless I really can put the time in I been watching your channel to help me get back into the game tho I havnt played in a year so I'm looking forward to going into it with more knowledge I don't even know how alot of systems work like the expertise system and such
Really glad the videos have helped out! Feel free to ask questions in the future if you have them
Thank you! I havnt played since the season where it was about rescuing people that got kidnapped I think it was mendezes gf or something so I'm a bit out of the loop with the story my question is can I get answers to stuff I missed since then in game or do I need to look on TH-cam? I was more a casual player just doing pve and doing the whole grind missions and battle passes and such I felt so weak all the time so I'm hoping this time around I'm gonna look into your content for some builds that can help me feel stronger and maybe try to learn systems that would increase my power level on stuff even more if possible is that like crafting or something? I'm not sure I always felt weak to do stuff over hard difficulty
I can't recall if I answered any of these on stream, but here's links that should help answer most of that:
Legacy Manhunt System (story catch-up): th-cam.com/video/-FPS5GflEAs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=vAYEw0_pvZx3mrBK
Top 2024 Recommended Builds: th-cam.com/video/z3YH2OamSfs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=myvKYMvVMzYD7ZBP
Expertise Breakdown (for extra power): th-cam.com/video/TTnyZXMwHu4/w-d-xo.htmlsi=CWG5SndMXoExJYG2
You did I was in the stream and asked and you did so thanks again man! And thank u even more for the links! I been more of a casual player and didn't really know anyone to help me with stuff I been a solo player mostly so I found you on TH-cam and it's been alot of help! I think the first video I watched was like one about explaining how the loot works and it made things make more sense for me
Good video Rogue. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Thank YOU for listening to it!
Thanks for the video still not the biggest fan of the darkzone because of the skill gap but once I level up I will be back os there an advantage of being rogue
I love the dark zone but I don’t love the fact that every time I run into a group of 4 I get killed immediately even if I don’t have any loot. If I have loot it’s more understandable but a 4v1 is fucked up so I usually avoid it.
Finally it's here, thank you sir
I really hope it helps!
Great video helped a lot as don't do well in DZ ! Need to get a better build as too much red so that I kinda mirror your base build then adapt as tome goes on. Oh and thanks to your pal 👍
So glad this was able to offer you some guidance, thanks for watching!
Excellent guide. Sadly, I've known all this stuff since the Div 1 days, yet I still suck at PvP. I guess it's just my aim and footwork that sucks.
Dang 😂 just log those hours into the shooting range! Lol
I actually prefer Conflict to the DZ. Conflict is just about combat.
I've been killed in the DZ when fighting in landmarks and tying my bag onto the rope. People killing for my credits. People take advantage of these situations.
Shared the video.
Same, i actually injoy conflict, i like that there's no radar to. Just shows in this game different strokes for different folk's. But saying that I do want to venture more into dz just for something new to do.
🙏 Thank you for the share! I'm glad you enjoy Conflict!
I’m that one crazy SOB who runs 6 red 4 piece hackstep lady death and glass cannon and 99.99% I lose every battle. That .01% seeing someone get absolutely destroyed is the best feeling ever 😂
Your boy was so squishy, he probably realized why y'all cook players in the DZ when he started feeling those bullets haha
Thanks bro i watched the entire video. I subbed.
Thank you so much!! Hope it helped
All tips and tricks are worth considering butttt the only way to get good at PvP in this game is to just throw yourself in to it. My single biggest piece of advice if you are thinking about playing PvP is just to ignore all the nonsense on Reddit 🤣
Good video
I literally have no idea why they removed the radar in Conflict. I've played a TONNE OF conflict but this has always baffled me. It completely kills the game mode.
Thank you Daniel!
Сделай пожалуйста плейлист с облучающими видео, чтобы было проще искать необходимые видео. Я не знаю английского языка и мне трудно искать информацию.
Спасибо)
И хотелось бы увидеть что-то интересное про коррупцию в системе, так как очень нравится билд и принципы игры с ним и вариации)
Iam loving pvp universe 🙃
Thank you for this guide 👍
Technical, you still gain stats after watch level 1000. It's just health. I think its a set amount of health each level.
Okay, true. But Health is pretty useless haha
I live in the DZ it makes you try different builds that you will never think in PVE
Another important detail in playing PvP in DZ is having a gamepad, I believe. Keyboard and mouse really suck.
As far as builds run whatever you have to..
The people crying about it will be Cartharsis, Everyday carrier , shotgun 0layers who door camp run away and medkit push...
Its so played out lol.
So if you catch a sticky, you catch a sticky. Gotta love when there is 4 of them running the same exact build or with one healer lol.
Given the state of the game now and the "damage tank meta" its whatever lol...
You still gain a small health bonus after each level past 1000, but you need to be around 30K SHD to actually give you as much health as armor... making health a respectable attribute... but you do get a small health boost with every SHD lvl
Thanks for pointing that out, had forgotten honestly! Alright, the grind to SHD 30K begins 😂
I would love to play PvP with my friend because he loves pvp but I just have no build to kill anyone or survive in a 1v1 fight but all around fun tho.
Hopefully the guide helped out somewhat! Here are links to my most current and tested PVP builds: th-cam.com/video/wfhdCDk5U5E/w-d-xo.html | th-cam.com/video/5ISwLc3aO48/w-d-xo.html
RogueGold What is your best build for the final floor of the Summit
I usually use this 👉 th-cam.com/video/mtMMYY0kJPU/w-d-xo.html
Freaking wow!!! So I knew that watch played a huge role. Well reaching 1000 SD Is gone be very time consuming. Im level 124
Honestly you'll be fine after 750. Getting the Weapon damage, crit chance/damage, armor, and hazard is most important
All the best PvP
Needed this guide new clan wanting to do dark zone rouge hunting big help
Great vid!
Thank you, glad you liked it!
