Dark Zone Ops get harder as you go on in Dark War Survival, so it’s best to be prepared if you want to clear them all and get rewards. It goes without saying that having the best heroes and the highest level troops will help.

Hero Roles Are Different, and More Important Than Ever
Unlike troop battles, the roles of your heroes don’t depend on their attributes in Dark Zone Ops. The roles are pre-determined, and you can check which hero belongs to which role by checking a little logo next to their level when you’re deploying them. A shield logo symbolises a Tanker role hero and a fun logo symbolises Striker roles.
After you choose your heroes and deploy them, the tankers will immediately run towards enemies and fight close up. Strikers are meant to stay back and attack from further away, staying safe from damage for a long time. Tankers have a lot more HP, letting them take almost twice as much damage as Strikers can.
How Much Do Attributes Matter Then?
Attributes will still affect how much damage a character can take and deal though, so don’t ignore them entirely. But, despite that, a Tanker will always be able to take more damage than a Striker regardless of attributes. Likewise, a Striker will always deal more damage than a Tanker even if they have less attack attributes.
That’s why it’s best to only focus on attributes depending on the role. For example, a team that has Tankers with high defence and Strikers with high attack will perform much better than a team with Tankers that have high attack and Strikers that have low attack. Choose heroes to fill each role accordingly so that they perform the best.
A Striker with the highest attack attributes will do much more damage than other Striker heroes with a higher level and better equipment but less attack attributes. Same applies to Tankers with defence.
The Right Equipment Will Seriously Boost Your Ouput
Equipment is the easily the best way to boost your output without grinding on and on for higher levels. Even if you don’t have the highest level heroes at this very moment and got stuck somewhere, try to focus on getting better equipment. Good equipment will instantly multiply defence and attack for your team in Dark Zone Ops, but you have to be strategic about how you use it.
Even with the best helmet and gun in the game won’t be able to make your Tankers do more damage than your Strikers. So always give Strikers the best attack equipment you have. Similarly, you should have the best defensive equipment on Tankers.
The Right Formation Will Instantly Improve Results
The best tactics for Dark Zone Ops is to keep your Strikers as safe as possible. Without them, you won’t be able to do any damage to enemies and clear levels. That means you should keep two Tankers in front of your Strikers. They’ll suck up all the damage and keep enemies away while your Strikers keep shooting from distance. By the time enemies reach your shooters, they’ll be weak enough to die before they can kill them.
Invest In The Right Heroes To Clear The Hardest Levels
For Dark Zone Ops, S-Tier Tankers Francis and Margaret are amazing Tankers to focus on because of their high defence attributes. S-tier Catherine and Rex are also a great option because you can get them for free by playing the story, so focus on upgrading her if you don’t have other S-tiers.
On the other hand, Evans, Guy and Rosa are the best options for Strikers because they have the highest attack attributes. Focus on upgrading their levels and they’ll outperform any of your other heroes easily.
What if You Don’t Have The Best Heroes and Equipment?
B-tier heroes will only get you so far in Dark Zone Ops. They’re purposefuly designed to be difficult. You’ll need to upgrade your heroes to at least the best A-tier options and have the best equipment possible to finish all the ops. With enough grind in other modes, that should be possible.
If you don’t want to grind for hours, make sure to check out LootBar for the best deals for all Dark War Survival resources. That will help you skip all the grind and clear Dark Zone Ops much faster.
Conclusion
Use these tips the next time you play Dark Zone Ops and you should be able to clear the levels you’re stuck at currently. And if you ever reach a point that’s too hard to continue, remember to top up Dark War Survival gems and get the best heroes for your team. With better heroes, proper equipment, and the formation above, Dark Zone Ops shouldn’t give you a hard time.
