    And btw... i kill em' with EP. Not even using a gun.
    Yep, I can easily kill both with EP too - without firing a shot. I was rather surprised first time I took one down with only three hits from my Firestarter...until I learned of the nerf they got.

    They can still occasionally shred me, but it's usually when they show up during missions in an enclosed space (and I am not prepared). In the open world streets where I have lots of room to maneuver they are hardly even a challenge now (though I do enjoy taking them down...I just wish they dropped better stuff).

    There have been a number of times I thought "they ain't gonna show" and then by sheer accident stumbled upon the rogues three or four blocks later in a huge street brawl with other factions.

    If this is indeed the case 100% of the time it adds a cool touch that I wouldn't want to change, but perhaps they could add a special indicator to our HUD to locate them so we can jump into the fight.

    Hey, now that I think about it that change would help the "don't like rogues" players too, because they could simply head the opposite direction and would be pretty sure of not encountering said rogues...
    If I had a dollar to bet, I'd bet that what is going on most of the time is that the rogues spawned -- hence the isac alert -- but they spawned in a closet with a shut door, etc. Yet another variation on the same theme of bugs introduced throughout the lifecycle of the game updates and never really brought back under control.

    they are PART OF THE GAME. its just like "can you please make a on/off switch to disable the 3rd boss, cuz i dont like it".

    their loot is better than usual, but its not guaranteed they will fit all your needs, as all the loot in this game, and if i didnt mention before, THEY´RE PART OF THE MAIN STORYLINE

    I only play since couple weeks (since the sale on ps4) and i got no problem with them. Theyre easy to deal with aslong youre not a glass canon.

    But an option to turn m off wouldnt hurt anyone.

    First off, thanks to everyone for the serious conversation on the topic. Reading through all of this has been great. For those saying, get gud noob and the like, I just hope you realize that's not really helpful to anyone here so it would be great if you could keep the snarky, self-serving comments to yourself. The impotent anger thing is not a good look.

    Just to be clear for those of you new to the game, rogue agents were NOT a part of the original game nor were they part of the story. Those of us who have been around since the beginning know this and understand this. Rogue agents can be killed and I often do. I just find them tedious and boring. The loot they drop is crap and not worth the time spent killing them. In legendary/heroic missions, they are unavoidable and definitely harder to kill and I'd just rather not deal with it.

    My expectation from the game is to have fun and enjoy the time playing. Rogue agents take away from that for me. This is the same reason that I won't step foot in the Summit ever again. Some people enjoy it and that's fine. I don't and I choose not to put myself through the aggravation. Same thing with rogue agents. I am honestly surprised that so many people take issue with that.
