It seems like a lot, but you'll be sitting on a million useless creds in no time.
I got two pink and one teal gun skin today. Yay!
That's nothing
They're that price because of the fact you're using PvE currency to buy High-End gear, and PvE currency is easily obtainable once you start hitting the Dark Zone and Purples drop like the bass in dubstep - often, and in quantity.
Yeah, I don't even play much and had enough to buy Pakhan after selling a few pinks.
At the safehouses throughout the DZ.

You have to be Level 30, then the DZ50 stuff will show up in the safe houses.

OH shit, well lets see if I don't get level down by rogues back to 49 before I get to one , ahahahahaha
Roll with a crew for protection, or run Pulse with Conceal and just run like hell.

Yea not really too hard due to the types of enemies.

Running around like an idiot getting all the collectibles.. Joy.
Lol poor design. You're always going to get picked on by people with better gear.
Anyways I've done 10 hours of DZ today before I crashed out, and not once did I get ambushed. Multiple times groups of 2 or 3 would show up near me when I was solo'ing stuff, and they just helped me then left me alone. At one point it was 6 of us just running around killing stuff.

You'll respawn in the safe house or if outside you will spawn to the closet.
All my drops are worse than the ones that I am wearing. I can't find a HE holster to replace my ilvl 31 Superior holster. It's too good.
Thanks!
Thanks!
I'd rush to level 30 if I were you. That's where you'll have the most fun if you got friends to play with. Hell, even random groups I've joined have been fun in the Dark Zone.

Picked up an HE LVOA-C from one of my dailies. Marginally lower sheet dps than my BM AK, but it handles fantastically and rolled a pretty decent set of talents. Think I'll use it for a while just for a change of pace.
The General Assembly mission rains purples thanks to the number of named bosses it has, so that's a good place to start. If you can't clear it on Hard, run it on normal until you have enough gear from there to move up to Hard. Once you can manage that, you're probably also OK for the daily hard missions, so get running those and building up some Phoenix Credits. Level 30 Hard mode bosses actually seem to have a not-completely-negligible chance of dropping HEs now too, so you might get lucky there, otherwise save Phoenix Credits until you can afford blueprints from the vendor.
If you like the DZ, there's also that method. Get a group if possible, roam around killing everything and hoping you get lucky drops while building up your rank and currency, eventually reach the point where you can buy items/blueprints from the vendors in the safe rooms (and then find out what a horrible grind it is to get enough HE Division Tech to actually craft anything worthwhile from them).
Keep an eye on the BoO/non-DZ Safehouse vendors for anything that would be a useful upgrade (the stock resets daily - there's a guy on Reddit who posts all the worthwhile items every day - here's today's thread).

The game is now your job. You are going to do hundreds of missions, lots of climbing, repelling, covering, blasting, blindfiring, etc.

expect to worry way too much about what your Agent is wearing
can't look unfashionable...gotta stay on point

Nice! Been dying to find one these....
The superior version I bought when I was level 20 or so was lot of fun to use. Haven't had an AR with such a nice combination of accuracy, RPM and stability.

When the gear drops, its a roll as to whether or not the gear will have a mod slot or not. That's whether it's a regular drop or crafted. Gloves and Holsters can not roll a mod slot. You can also Reconstruct a stat on your HE for a chance to get a mod slot.
You full? Haven't gotten the request
Alright

I just blew my DZ creds in an unprecedented shopping spree. I spent maybe 300k and I bought loads of yellow blueprints and mods and ofc some purples.
Need to check what I can and cannot craft when I go back to the base but so far this is what I ended up with as a fresh 30:
You guys reckon is enough to the dailies on hard? I mean I still need to finish the story. If you guys have some soft caps I should hit, please let me know as well

you'll easily be able to do hard missions and you'll be absolutely able to do challenge mode missions if you focus on CC

Shit, really! That's better than I expected. Very cool then. Thanks a lot. Will finish the story then have a go at it
. Thanks!You can purchase a dude in the electronics section of your base who will sell gear for phoenix coins. There are also vendors in DZ06 who take them.
Yeah, doing the hard mode dailies just isn't fun at all. The more I think about it the more I feel like this game would benefit from more of a scaling difficulty similar to Diablo rather than the MMO-like design is seems to be moving toward where you can easily outgear content.
My one hot tip is pop into the DZ at the top of each rank bracket and extract 30 items in the zones of your level, trying to unlock all the extraction points and safe houses and checkpoints as you go along. I don't remember what the exact rank brackets are but if you pop into a DZ checkpoint and open your map the bracket you are currently in is listed. Then just come back when you hit the top level.
Then when you get to 30 you aren't a lamb going into the slaughter, you will know what to expect. You will still get wrecked every now and then by some asshole Rogue(s) with top gear but that's the experience as intended.
