  1. It gives me, a primarily PvE player, a chance to explore a Dark Zone devoid of other players, without needing to use a VPN to change location. To this point, I've only encountered one other intentionally level 29 player who wanted to PvP. Any others I've come across are those who are working their way to level 34.
  2. I haven't encountered any cheaters at level 29, and cheaters can't simply switch around their gear to get into level 29 like they could for WT3 or WT4. They would need to dedicate a character to level 29.
  3. It allows me to work towards some PvP commendations that I wouldn't get otherwise: extractions, landmarks, supply drops
  4. The limitations of no Gear set/exotics forces you to think a bit differently about your build. Until that point, I really didn't have the need to learn about all of the high-end gear talents. Also, there are also some weapons that don't exist at level 29: MP5 ST, MG5, M700 Carbon.
  5. Dark Zone consumable caches are much cheaper at 1009 DZ credits versus level 34 at 25000 DZ credits
  6. Make Standard/Specialized Division Tech numbers go up
  7. Once you've maxed out your Specialized Division Tech at 4000, any more obtained from extracted Specialized Dark Zone caches, which grants 3 to 9 Specialized Division Tech, will be converted to High-end Division Tech (Video confirmation). This is more than can be obtained from Superior (1 to 3), High-end (2 to 5), or Gear Set (2 to 8) Dark Zone Sealed caches. This makes looting the Specialized Dark Zone caches from the small chests littered around DZ01 to DZ04 particularly lucrative. It also provides additional chances to obtain a Specialized First Wave X-45 with Coolheaded.
  1. It is ideal do it solo but if you are playing in a group, ensure that you are level progressing together. Group XP scaling is wonky, so playing with a higher level teammate is not encouraged AND do not get level boosted
  2. Don't bother with collectibles. The majority of ECHOs required for Missions, Side Missions, and Encounters are not automatically collected when they are activated
  3. Do your best to avoid activities that grant XP (i.e. civilians requiring help, killing extra NPCs, etc) and, when you can, avoid gear with the Increased Kill XP attribute
  4. Follow the typical story district progression, doing all Missions, Side Missions, and Encounters until Gramercy
  5. For Stuyvesant onward, do all remaining Missions and enough Encounters to fully unlock the Base of Operations. This should get you to approximately level 26
  6. Unlock all of the Dark Zone checkpoints. Discovering new DZ areas will grant a small amount of XP
  7. Complete the General Assembly Mission and then do enough of the remaining Side Missions to get to level 29
  8. If you are collecting all blueprints, see DZ Blueprints in the menu. As the first blueprints disappear after level 15, I suggest going into the Dark Zone at or before level 14, which is the highest level in the first Dark Zone bracket (1 to 14), in order to rank up for these requirements. Ranking up will also allow you to open the various Dark Zone chests. Having access to the large chests is a great way to obtain purple gear before it starts to drop regularly in the open world.
  9. It is best to stop once you cross into level 29, you don't want to accidentally go into level 30
  10. This isn't the only method to get to level 29 but I have completed it multiple times without fail
