Rogues
Rogues are players who seriously wound or kill other players. Being a rogue is one of the ways to obtain loot in the Dark Zone, but it also paints a huge target on your back. Other players will be able to reap huge rewards by taking you down if you happen to go Rogue so it’s important to know how it works.
Hitting a human player with enough bullets will start your Rogue timer, making you fair game for anyone around. The more humans you kill, the higher timer becomes until it reaches a cap of five minutes. You cannot leave the Dark Zone if you’ve been marked as a rogue until your time is up (surviving until it’s over earns you some xp) or until you’re killed (you’ll lose XP, DZ Credits, and DZ Keys).
If you feel that you need to be a Rogue in the Dark Zone for whatever reason, note that the lower level your Rogue tier is the closer other players have to be in order to spot you on their maps. The only exception is tier 5 where everyone is notified of your location and a bounty hunt begins.
