Forward Operating Base (FOB): Overview

The Forward Operating Base (FOB) is your command center for DMZ. Manage progression, prepare your gear, and plan the next deployment. As you complete Operations across Hajin, the FOB evolves with you, transforming from a foothold to a fully operational base with over a dozen different Stations.

Here are the Stations that your FOB is comprised of, starting with those immediately accessible:

• Operators (Active Duty): Manage your available Operators, check their status, upgrade their Traits, and select one ready for deployment.
• Stash/Loadout: The Stash allows you to store a variety of loot types from Weapons to Gear to 3D Printer Ingredients and more! Every time you extract, make sure to offload items you'll need in future deployments. Equip weapons and gear in your Loadout, ready for the next infil.
• DMZ Orders: DMZ Orders are your guiding Mission Directives in DMZ. These assist with getting you onboarded, telling the story of DMZ and challenging you to master the exclusion zone.
• Firing Range: Test your weapons (especially your optics) and sharpen your aim in this wooded grove, with targets positioned from close to more than 100 meters away.
• Survival Kits: These are themed packs of loot items that can be opened and then used to gear up or used to craft.
