Before you even take one step beyond that boundary, are you ready? Ideally we’re talking level 30 ready, but don’t even consider opening the door until you’re level 10. Why? Because this place is dog-eat-dog. Few will show you mercy, and death comes with steep penalties. If you can’t stay alive in the zone, you’ll be actively punishing yourself, so...
The Dark Zone is split into various districts, each one with checkpoints to the east and west that lead back to the main city. These gates are where you’ll be resurrected if you die. Like Safe Houses in the PvE areas, they need to be visited before they are available to you, so it’s best to skirt the edges of the zone and unlock all these potential...
Using a headset is very useful in The Division, especially if you want to make it clear whose side you’re on (or convince people you’re ‘safe’ *wink wink*). Do remember that voice chat is proximity based though: if you’re chatting to your squad about ambushing other players, stand too close to your targets and they’ll be able to hear exactly what y...
Teaming up is the best way to survive the Dark Zone. As a group you can effectively battle the area’s tough AI enemies, and you’ll want to kill them to claim the rare loot drops they carry. To get a team together, use a matchmaking laptop at a Safe House, and then co-ordinate using voice chat. If you can, group up with friends you know. This should...
You may know by now that any treasures you find in the Dark Zone are contaminated, and can’t be equipped straight away. Instead loot must be extracted for cleaning first, and until then it stays in a bright yellow bag on your belt. To extract your newly-found loot you’ll need to go to one of the gold-marked extraction zones. They’re normally surrou...
When in the Dark Zone you’ll notice you don’t level up. That’s because you can’t earn traditional XP here. Instead you gain Dark Zone XP, which contributes to your Dark Zone Rank (the purple number and bar at the top of your HUD). Your Rank is very important as it dictates what you can unlock in the zone. There are chests and loot items that will b...
Snuffing it in the main city has zero impact on your progression, but it’s an entirely different story in the Dark Zone. Die here and you pay a price. That toll comes in a variety of forms: loot, cash, XP, and keys. You’ll lose a portion of each every time you die. The loot you’ll lose is what you’ve picked up during your adventures in the zone. If...
The Dark Zone is PvP, which means any player inside can attack and kill you. The game isn’t PvP by default though, so in many cases you’ll find that players don’t immediately want to kill you. Don’t think that they’re your allies though; anyone can turn traitor at the drop of a hat. If you’ve got precious loot with you, assume everyone’s out to get...

Mar 14, 2016 · The Division is an instantly co-op PvE (player-versus-environment) shooter-RPG - until you enter the Dark Zone. This dangerous, rewarding area represents a big chunk of The Division's end-game ...

The psychology of the dark zone is that after playing on that level of difficulty, when you eventually go back to the main gameplay, things do feel easier than before going to the dark zone. That sheer, brutal and honest view of the basic human nature is what will keep your adrenaline going once entering any of the dark zones.
