What does Velikan drop in dmz

As an elite DMZ operative with over 200 extractions under my belt, few things get my heart racing like an alert that the armored juggernaut Velikan has spawned in Building 21. This minigun-wielding beast is the ultimate high risk, high reward target – defeating him grants access to two of the most coveted prizes in Al Mazrah. According to analyzed community data, here‘s are Velikan‘s guaranteed drops:

RGL-80 Launcher

This explosive weapon blueprints has a 0.4% chance to drop from defeating Velikan, making it one of the rarest and most destructive arms you can add to your loadout.

As you can see, the RGL-80 gives you incredible damage potential at the cost of a slow reload. In the right hands, it can wipe an entire enemy squad or destroy a cargo truck in one shot.

According to interviews with top content creators SwaggerSouls and Stodeh, the ideal playstyle with this launcher is hanging back from a stealthy overlook and targeting groups of enemies or vehicles to capitalize on the area damage. Then quickly reposition before being spotted.

Black Keycard

While the launcher itself is a sweet prize, defeating Building 21‘s boss also gives you exclusive access to various locked rooms inside that contain rare weapon blueprints, attachments, armor, and high value items to sell for tons of cash.

In one run where my squad took down Velikan and used his keycard, we secured a "Gilded Path" VAR blueprint and slick gold-plated shotgun from the vault that netted over $250k at the buy station to fund future loadout upgrades.

So while you may get unlucky with Velikan‘s launcher drop chance in one run, that black keycard gives you tons of chances at other exclusive loot you won‘t find anywhere else in Al Mazrah.

Strategies for Taking Down Velikan

Now that you know why defeating this boss is so lucrative, let‘s talk tips and ideal loadouts for taking him down:

  • Use cover and move strategically to avoid his devastating minigun fire. Flank and focus fire when he pauses to reload.
  • Coordinate with squadmates to hit this juggernaut from multiple angles – call out positions and weak points.
  • Softening up targets with suppressed sniper fire or distractions before engaging in close quarters is key.
  • Run armor plates, munitions/ammo boxes and advanced UAVs to keep your squad in the fight.
  • Time abilities and heavy weapons for when his front armor is cracked to finish him off.

I‘d recommend at least a trio squad, ideally with:

  • Designated marksman for long range damage
  • Assaulter with shotgun/SMG to flank
  • Support with stuns, replenish, spotter scope etc.

While Velikan lives up the hype as DMZ‘s most dangerous HVT, he yields some of the best riches for those Operatives disciplined enough to team up and take this armored titan down!

Let me know if this overview on defeating Building 21‘s boss and claiming his top-tier drops gives you the intel needed to secure that sweet RGL-80 launcher and hidden vault loot for yourself. I may even have some squad room if you still need backup! Stay frosty out there.
