    Question about this Survival location

    I use to be able to run into all purple & sometimes they were elites. What happened this this spot?



    I miss dealing with elites here.

    I can't see the location you speak of, where are you talking about?

    It's that spot with all the tires stacked up & to the left is where 2 elites walk the street. It's next to the DZ not far from the Time Square Power Relay

    33rd St, 6th Ave. Next to the Dz Landmark in DZ1?

    Along the West side of the DZ there are purples up and down that whole side. If you aren't seeing a NPC, then someone else beat you to it. Cause to my knowledge nothing has changed over there. It is also possible that players come along and lure the NPCs to a different local.

    What is the exact location? Cause the area I am thinking of has some golds near by but it has always been purples. There are like 3 groups of NPCs, 1 of that group is an elite LMB, the other 2 groups are purple and with a perfect storm you can get them all fighting at once.

    That's a bad link. Get the link from the "copy" button off IMGUR, append ".png" to it.

    I played last week and around the west side of the map I came across two roaming elite LMBs near Subway Morgue, three veteran Rikers near the Police shack near Time Square and the Time Square landmark had an elite and three or four veterans.

    The gold elites are still there, they just roam around and have patrol areas.

    Ok so reddit corrected me on this. It use to have 1 elite & the rest would be veterans.

    Fixed the img.

    If coming from the south side, there are Purples there, continue north and the next street you see. 2 elites patrol there. Then you will see more purples. The street beyond that is a group of reds. Now if you are creative, you can actually agro all of them at once and they will all fight each other. I have actually defended from that DZ entrance point and watched them fight. Cool thing was at how quick the NPCs took out the elites. Cause I think it is 2 elite lmb, a large number of cleaners (all purple), and finished with a small group of rioters(reds).

    Anyway the Reds and the Golds, patrol. The purple are camped right there.
