The Division Incursions: How to Check Assignments & Why You Should Do Them

As part of the Incursions update to come to The Division this month, Daily and Weekly Assignments were introduced to give Agents additional tasks to complete for some pretty sweet rewards. These will require you to complete certain criteria related to a specific part of the game, such as Crafting or the Dark Zone.

Assignments are a small feature but are definitely worthwhile checking out. However, you may not know how to check what the assignments require you to do and what your rewards for completing them may be. Let’s give you a quick rundown.

What Are Assignments and How to Check Them?

Daily and Weekly Assignments will only be available for a limited amount of time as their names suggest. These assignments come in three different categories: Combat, Dark Zone, and Crafting. Completing each assignment will grant you some form of reward. What your reward is will depend on the difficulty of the assignment, and the type of assignment you’ve completed. Because weekly challenges have more parts to them and require you to do much more than a daily challenge, you’ll be rewarded accordingly.

To check your Daily and Weekly Assignments, you’re going to want to bring up your map. Once here, you’ll see that there is a ‘Mission Overview’ option at the bottom of the screen. Use the L1 and R1 / LB and RB buttons to navigate your way over to this panel. Here, on the right-hand side, you should see Daily and Weekly Assignments listed at the top. Simply use your left stick to scroll through the list and check the requirements you must meet to complete each one.

What They Require and Why You Should Complete Them

At the time of writing, the Daily Assignments seemed pretty straightforward. The Combat Assignment requires players to ‘Bring 3 elite enemies to justice,’ the Dark Zone Assignment requires you to ‘Bring 10 LMB soldiers in the Dark Zone to justice,’ and the Crafting Assignment simply required you to convert any weapon parts to a higher quality three times. Once you’ve completed an Assignment, you’ll be given your reward and will be notified on screen.

Weekly Assignments, on the other hand, require a bit more ground work. At the time of writing, players must do the following tasks to complete the assignment:

• Bring 50 Cleaners in the Dark Zone to justice.
• Deconstruct 30 Standard Items.
• Eliminate 40 Veteran Enemies
• Complete 10 main missions on hard or challenging difficulty.

As a reward for completing all of this, you’ll be rewarded with 30 Phoenix Credits. Not bad for just cleaning the streets, gathering materials, and grinding for better gear.

So why should you complete these assignments? Well, simply put, they’re not going to detract from your overall experience playing The Division. If you’re already going about completing missions, exploring the Dark Zone, and crafting for better gear then you’ll probably find that you’ll complete many assignments without even thinking about it. And if that’s the case, who doesn’t want free Phoenix Credits, Dark Zone Exp, and Division Tech?

That’s all you need to know about Daily and Weekly Assignments. For more guides, tips, tricks, and information on The Division, be sure to check out our wiki.
