Solo DMZ Boss Guide - DMZ Sniper & Rhino Koschei Complex Guide

I've been putting this off because I hate it down there. I have to now. Thanks Geeks.

[@JackLeftTown427]

I’ve put it off because I dont worry about crafting my own stealth vest. I just find the 2 plate version.

[@reaperblaster8291]

​@JackLeftTown427 3 plates in general can be overrated. If you play tactically, you don't really need to worry about being a bullet sponge to AI or Ops because you won't be in a direct line of fire to lose your plates

[@JackLeftTown427]

@@reaperblaster8291 absolutely agree. I like 3 plates, but even on a squad I’m trying to be low profile and stay out of people’s line of sight. Just wanna do my missions and skip pvp as much as I can. But I will take my chances if necessary. Need 6 more opponent weapons extracted to unlock something.

[@wenstafarni]

@@reaperblaster8291 if you can avoid PvP even a 1 plate is doable, just take a few selfs

[@Fearkillzone7506]

Just an added help. The Tarqek entrance is the best option to fast kill them. In the water puzzle find the 2 bunker keys. Then you'll head thru the backdoor, find the alt exit key and it will open up into the boss room. If you also have a l2 key you can quick kill them, get the case and leave before anyone really can make it to you. You won't need NVGs or anything else.

[@krazykaz1983OG]

Came here to comment this, no need for jumpers or battery, no need for NVGs, the water entrance bypass and no need to go in chemical plant at all

[@krazykaz1983OG]

Also the L2 card often spawns in the desks near the shop keeper, or the water entrance near the secret entrance. Finally there is a hard spawn for the alternative entrance you walked past on the desk in that mid area, that opens the door with the ladder, to get up to the rhino from a better angle with less air to fight...

[@CanupawakpaDakota]

I think he demonstrates why you need NVGs. Also, a DDOS (the EMP-thing) for the Traps by the Sniper is a big QoL addition if you find them.

[@icy1172]

Commenting too. And like.

[@matthewlittleton0221]

Oasis is so much easier no need for a rebreather

[@metal35]

With the Scuba Mask and since their spawn rates are sometimes rare but common in gas stations I found it really helpful going through the Taraq Village entrance, enter from the secret entrance, finding the secret key for the shortcut, and boom killing the two bosses.

[@josephstewart2821]

I think it's the secret entrance and secret key part that people will struggle with- I find it's really tough to even get a team to set foot in the complex at all so don't have a clue about most of the secrets and solo is pretty much impossible unless you are some sort of god like freak of accuracy

[@duffmid]

Geeks, there's actually a little bit of an easier way to get to them. At 10:27 on the table in front of you, there's always the Alternate Exit key. That opens the green door you pass before you go through the double doors. If you use that it will take you to the back of the Rhino room and you avoid a bunch of the T3 guards. It also puts you right by open windows (to the left as you go in the room) so you can put a bomb drone right to the sniper.

[@4ctorb0b]

Yes, that's the easiest way to do it!

[@GuchiLuna]

I always do this the keys

[@Blackgold1155]

Thanks! I never knew about this and have been beating my head against the wall trying to get the factory admin key before getting slaughtered by a platoon in the chemical plant.

[@shigowbt]

And take the KV Broadside take down Rhino with 1 mag... and bomb drone the sniper... and as a solo player is better not to disable the traps... is a defense against players that shows up...

[@goofie83assassin78]

That's some 200IQ LEVEL

[@invokedbyred]

The reason the Sniper isn't fighting you after you go up to the catwalk is because when you get the warning that the bosses are nearby, that warning on screen triggers the bosses into becoming aggro'd to you and that's when the Sniper will move forward from where you first saw him in this video. If you stayed down below where the Rhino was on that floor, you could have used your bomb drone from there to fly up and take him out. That's how you can kill them both in 60 seconds (and complete that mission) in the process. I did a video about this and went into some detail about how you can effectively skip the bot fight because of how they're triggered etc etc.

[@geekseh]

Tip: when the "factory wing" appeared you should see that theres a key... that key is for the green/blue door that you find before hold on im putting the times 10:12 the green door where ypu can find a ladder and save some time and ammo because it leaves you directly into the rhino arena 10:28 the key you need to open that door

[@Macc_spice]

[@Atr911]

@geeks with the availability of the scuba masks I’ve found the easiest way was to use the water entrance and grab the two keys. Direct access to the factory admin and buy station and bypass a lot of the rest of PVP

[@kavin7285]

Also ive noticed that u get bomb drones in active combat zones too. Just open a bunch of orange crates and theres a high chance you would get one

I've watched this video a few times, I'm still new to DMZ, maybe 3 months in, I normally go in through Oasis but just recently started using Taraq entrance, I did avoid it because I kept drowning but I had no clue what I was doing, now I don't drown but so far I haven't tried to kill Rhino and Sniper but that's going to be next on my list, thanks for showing the way 😁

[@sorange2828]

Just finished this with randomers, we were with 3 people and all had a ghillie camo on like a special force team 😂 sickest game i’ve ever played and we killed the sniper and picked up a lot of loot.

[@geekseh]

Hells ya!

[@inasatok]

I usually bring an lmg with a big ass mag and some ads attachments like an rapph cuz that can melt even a 6 man platoon with one belt. Good to clear the waves of enemies and also good for pvp, a vaznev or a broadside as a side arm and you are done nothing could suprise you. Or if you feel spicy, use the lachman 7.62 with the 60 round mag in full auto, that 600ms ttk is unbeatable, you even outgun 2 m13s with that.

[@mehemmedmeherremov5392]

Thanks mate for the easiest instructions and also improvised me entering this complex again. I will definitely try these methods. Greetings from Azerbaijan 🇦🇿

[@Iceaticc]

Just an add help. With that L2 Key. If you go there first before killing the boss you can enter the room from that way as well, this will allow you to skip the bots that you basically tried to run through. You end end up dealing with the boys from the L2 only and any boys that may spawn in de ping on how you kill Rhino. To do this when looking at the shop turn right go up the stairs. When you get to the the next set of stairs and doors make a right up those stairs. (The catwalk above where you went in at 1 10:07) once inside and down the stair where you clear bots you make a right and that will lead you to the boss area. I usually clear that area and then go to the bosses and fight so if players are coming you don’t have to fight AI and Players to get out. Plus I Jump out of the window buy where you downed him and leave any bots up if any have spawned in.

[@ChuyToutounji]

Great video for my galley. Need to learn how to kill those Bosses today. Thanks GeeksEH for your content.

[@wenstafarni]

A couple of points Geek. The alt exit key will take you straight to the rhino, avoiding some PVE And as a matter of preference, the bridge entrance will take you straight to the chem plant (note though it can be tricky at times)

[@Grick__rimes]

I’ve been having a good time running crossbow with thermite arrows to wipe out armored targets in 1 arrow each Most of the time the npc don’t register your there before you pop back behind cover And if you run into pvp combat thermite burns through try hard riot shields over the rear

[@keyboardkaos3279]

Found that exit in the boss room by complete accident. I was originally there to kill the Rhino with the Kastov 762 from the one dead drop in Vondel. Unfortunately got beaten to the punch by a team. One of them went right by me which must have just unlocked that exfil elevator shortcut. Either they didn't notice me, mistook me for one of their own, or left me be because I was solo, I'll never know. I noticed that exfil was close by that I in a panic rushed to and successfully exfiled. Also, around 10:28 Geeks went by a table that always has an Alternative Exit key. One use though.

[@loyallion6693]

Bro I literally looked for so many videos and finally did this last week it took me all season 😂

[@guenhwyvhar]

My method for Koschei solo runs is also my main method for extracting from Al Mazrah, since it involves very few bots and it's very predictable. I take the Taraq entrance to Koschei with a Scuba Mask or Rebreather and also an L2 card (it has three uses max like a normal key, unlike how Geekseh said in the video), although you can easily loot enough to buy a card if you take the Taraq entrance. Step 1: Get the keys and loot. The first key is always in the first room on the right, in one of three locations, and it glows blue if you are looking for it. The most common spot is behind a pillar at the very end of the room. Besides getting the key, looting for Nuclear Fuel Rods and other objects worth money (Vintage Wine, Classified Docs, Alpha Boards, etc) are worth picking up, especially if you don't have an L2 card. If you fully loot, you will end up with 7 Fuel Rods, each work 7.5K, which is enough to pick up the L2 key. The second key is in a fully flooded room in the next area. An X on a boarded-up wall marks the spot. In this flooded area, there are three sections: Left, Back, and Right. There are four potential spawn locations for the key on the left, three in the back, and three on the right. My suggestion is to hit the back room first if you have a Rebreather or a Scuba Mask, so you don't run the risk of running out. The rooms on the left and right can be done safely without a mask or Rebreather as long as you do them one at a time and don't get greedy. My rule of thumb in this area without a mask is to not sprint so you can stay under water longer, and to make sure to be in the main hallway when your breath gauge starts to turn red. After finding both keys, feel free to loot for money and valuables. Sometimes you can get lucky and find an L2 card, saving you money later on. Use the keys to open the secret entrance to the Shop. Once you are done buying stuff and dealing with bots, head upstairs to loot if you wish, and follow the catwalks around as if you were going to the Sniper and the Rhino, just on an upper level. You will find a set of double doors that open with the L2 key, and voila! You are now in the L2 exit area that Geekseh used to leave the Complex. The nice thing about this way into the L2 exit is that you can head to the Sniper and the Rhino without having to fight through waves of AI. At most, depending on how many bots are in the shop, you only have to deal with 3 bots in the flooded area and the bots in the exit area (around 15-25 total). Also, if you have the Bomb Drones, you can launch them safely from the entrance into the room without having to engage any AI. Finally, since the exfil location is behind an expensive key, you are less likely to run into enemy operators compared to going through the Chemical Plant. Hopefully this super-long post will help other solo players with extracting safely from Koschei in the future! Keep your stick on the ice, Geekseh!

[@bluthgold533]

Nuclear rods are 2.5 k now.

[@marjus89]

Super useful and a good guide Geeks, thank you for making this!

[@diegozarzam]

If you only want to kill the sniper and not loot him you can just bomb drone it from the place he bomb drone the rhino through a window and you wouldn't have to deal with those laser traps

[@daver3250]

To get to the rhino quicker straight out the buy station. Run across the room, up the ramp, through the window and there's a set of doors on the right. Through them and you go through 3 rooms, keep going and your at the locked doors where you send the bomb drone. When you took the sniper out, back along the corridor to the end and there's a set of doors on the left, through them and there's a L2 locked door through there. There's a hand full of AI and 1 laser to crawl under at the top of some stairs ant then a lift at the end. Also, we found if you don't go any where near the rhino before you take him out the AI it doesn't rattle the AI, the sniper and his AI.

[@littlemanlloyd]

I do love a flannel - enjoy it, it looks good. Great vid, thanks

[@sv-bk]

Personal tip: If you're scared of wasting your drones on the rhino remember that it's very easy to semtex the sniper because he's standing still a lot. I like to bring a riot shield in and protect myself with it when approaching him.

[@Mickeyv88]

If you have the l2 key you take the entrance of l2 above the buy station don't need an alt exit key either

[@cueriux]

If bomb drones are too hard to find, AP rounds (the field upgrade) + Shock Sticks + Thermites work very nicely. Remember to buy ammo boxes though.

[@GuchiLuna]

Or use KV Broadside with armor-piercing ammunition, way more easy

In the sniper area with the lasers you can let them be and not defuse them so if a team comes up behind you they have more trouble getting to you

[@F3PIZZA]

Hey, dudes, how many light helos spawn on the map? Does it depend on how many players? What about the Heavy Chopper, is there only 1 and when it’s gone it’s gone or does another one come in after a certain time? There’s another thing about the LH I can’t find: whether or not they changed the handling properties between launch and now. (I wish they’d arm the damn thing! 😂Just gimme 4 dumb 2.75” rockets. That’s all, just a measly 4!)

Looking for the link for shot gun build

[@mattbuk]

Still watched it, even though I’ve fully completed the upgrade. No need to kill them anymore. To be honest it’s a little disappointing, as it was pretty fun. When in the factor. You can jump through an open window - opposite the buy station, this takes out the first 2 rooms of bots and then I just run through the remaining 2 without shooting bots - for speed. Also from experience the l2 card is always in that table where you found it. The l2 card isn’t like the stronghold card. It’s like a key. So you can get a max of 4 usages, depending how worn it is. Lastly my preferred entrance is the waterway section. Get the 2 keys, so you can access the shortcut to the factory and miss the dark zone.

[@Blackgold1155]

The real challenge always seams to be getting in and getting the Factory Admin Key first. I have never gotten it solo and might need help.

If you can only find or only afford one bomb drone, you can kill the Rhino fast with a Broadside with fire ammo. Walk right up to him and blast away point blank in the face. Takes just under the 25 rounds to kill him.

[@davitdavid7165]

That shotgun build can be made better. The poneapple gives you recoil control at the cost of ads and the grooveshot will be a better choice as it gives you better ads while helping hipfire as mich. Another thing is the movement. No stock would be abetter choice as it helps with movement, ads and sprintout. I would replace the laser with it and also avoid the viaible laser ruining pvp.
