Things to Do First in The Division 2
Explore Everywhere
Upon reaching the White House and going through the opening tutorial in The Division 2, the game’s world opens up a whole lot more. You can head south back the way you came through the tutorial, or you can head east towards your next main objective.
It can be tempting enough to make a bee-line for that main objective, but rather than doing that, explore your surroundings. There are plenty of buildings just south of the White House that you likely missed during the tutorial that actually have a bunch of crates containing handy gear and items that’ll give you the upper hand in combat.
Not to mention, during the main mission in the hotel, you’ll come across one of these Hyenas Crates (pictured above). If you head immediately south of The White House, you can access the underground system of tunnels. In here, you’ll be able to find what look like breaker boxes on the wall, which, when you loot, contain the various faction keys.
These faction keys, such as a Hyenas Key, will grant you the ability to open these crates when you come across them, which just so happen to have powerful gear and rare items.
You won’t come across a Hyenas Key otherwise during the main mission you can find this crate within the hotel, so exploring before playing this mission can save you having to replay the mission.
