Underground

The Underground is the first paid content expansion added to Tom Clancy's The Division, introduced in Patch 1.3. With a Player VS Environment (PvE) focus, Division agents are recruited to explore the sprawling network of tunnels underneath Manhattan in what amounts to randomized, procedurally-generated dungeons. Players can set multiple different modifiers on an Underground operation to make the run more difficult but net them greater rewards as a result.
==Setting up an Operation==
All Underground-related content is accessed in the Tactical Operations Center, hidden underneath the Terminal and away from the public. The Underground Operation can be set at the Operations Panel. Here the player can configure the Operation for them to take. First, the player can select the difficulty level the Operation will be from either Normal, Hard, Challenging, or Heroic. Next the player will select how many Phases of the Underground Operations will have. The Phases are basically a mission put together into one Operation. Having more than one phase will increase the player rewards. Normal difficulty cannot have multi-phase operations, while Heroic Operations cannot have single-phase operations.
Finally, the player will select the Directives to apply in the Operation. The Directives affect the gameplay aspects, but will increase the player rewards. Up to 5 directives can be applied in an Operation. Directives require Directive Intel, which can be obtained from Underground Daily Missions and Named Enemy drops.
==Directives==
Directives are gameplay modifiers that provide a buff to the players, but also have a drawback to provide balance.
==Operations==
Each time an Operation is selected, the layout and objective of the Underground changes, resulting in a new mission each time. In each mission the final wave of enemies will feature a .
===Surgical Strike===
Locate and eliminate a High-Value Target and 2 of their lieutenants.
===Critical Infrastructure===
Clear and protect 3 power generators from hostile forces. With each generator, enemy waves will increase. At the final generator, players must hold the area until JTF forces arrive and clear the area.
===Missing Patrol===
Locate and assist JTF patrols from hostiles. The third patrol the player finds requires the player to protect the officer in charge.
===Recovering the Report===
Find and recover a JTF officer carrying an Intel Report. Players must eliminate 2 groups of hostiles and locate GPS Data to find the Officer. Upon entering the third area and clearing it, a key will drop and the player can free the JTF officer. Afterwards, a final 3 waves of enemies will assault the player's position. The JTF officer can be killed in this section without Operation Failure, and the report can be picked up from his body after the fight. 
===Supply Depot===
Find and destroy 3 supply crates control by hostiles. Upon reaching the room with the supply crate, players will have 4 minutes, 3 minutes, and 2 minutes to destroy the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd crates, respectively. 
===Target of Opportunity ===
Find and eliminate a High-Value Target. Players will have 20 minutes to reach the final area and engage the boss. The operation will fail if the player ran out of time.
==== Possible Hunter Encounters ====
At any time during any Underground Op, Hunters have a chance of appearing. These encounters are similar to the encounters in other game modes. Reward for killing them is 4 items.
*NOTE: All Hunters must be killed for reward to be dropped.
== Intel ==
During the player's mission, the player may encounter one of two kinds of intel; Audio Journals or Urbex photos. The Urbex (Urban Explorer) pictures display areas an urban explorer visited in his adventure in the Underground.The Audio Journals feature a civilian, a Riker, a Rioter, a Cleaner, an LMB soldier, and the Rogue First Wave Division Agent responsible for the events prior to discovering the happenings of the underground.
==Rewards==
Upon completing a phase of the Underground, players will receive a loot crate. Loot crates can also be found throughout the mission, and also guaranteed to be dropped from .
Activities in the Underground will gain Underground , which will level up the players Underground Rank. Ranking up will gain access to Multi-Phase Operations and Directives. Each Rank up will reward an Underground Cache, containing 2 or Gear Set items.
Reaching Rank 40 will reward you with the , and unlock Underground Proficiency.
 earned after Rank 40 goes towards earning said Proficiency.
== Hazards ==
In the Underground the player will come across certain hazards; these can range from simple puzzles and traps (i.e. a loose electrical wire that will shock the player if they come in contact, a gas pipe blowing out fire, etc.) to rigged rooms (i.e. Alarm Zones or Steam Filled Rooms) to booby traps set up by enemies (i.e. IED and Blinder Traps)
