Lieutenants

Each one guards a home area and may drop the key to their own loot room. Key drops are random loot, so you won't get one every kill.

Subject File card for Bale, a DMZ Lieutenant

Lieutenant 01

Bale

Where
Re-Education Center, Deadtown (B7)
Key drop
May drop the Supreme Leader's Bunker Access Card for the Chang-san bunker (random loot).

Disputed: ConquestCapped (Oct 28) says Bale's loot room hasn't been found yet.

Note: ConquestCapped also lists a second, rarer spawn in the underground bunker at Chang-san Air Base.

Subject File card for Iskra, a DMZ Lieutenant

Lieutenant 02

Iskra

Where
Cheonwang Peak Array (F6)
Key drop
May drop Iskra's Control Room Key for the transmitter top floor (random loot).
Subject File card for Scavenger, a DMZ Lieutenant

Lieutenant 03

Scavenger

Where
Roams Hajin (River Heights G8 and more)
Key drop
No key room. A unique Revenant weapon comes from his kill loot.

Disputed: ConquestCapped (Oct 28) says he drives an LTV around the map and drops the Oris 8.6 marksman rifle, not a Revenant.

Subject File card for Gorani, a DMZ Lieutenant

Lieutenant 04

Gorani

Where
Mujin Pass woodland, south of Cheonwang
Key drop
May drop Gorani's Scout Overlook Key for the Rice Mill overlook (random loot).

Note: Sources describe the spot differently: ConquestCapped says a forest house between Cheonwang Peak Array and Mirae General Hospital; the official guide's story says the high woodland above Hanrim Village.

Subject File card for The Chemist, a DMZ Lieutenant

Lieutenant 05

The Chemist

Where
Haneul Nuclear Reactor warehouse (H4)
Key drop
May drop The Chemist's Secure Armory Key, for the armory north of the reactor (random loot).

Hazmat guards hold the warehouse door. Bring a Gas Mask and Rad Blockers.

Jin-Tae

Where
Heavenly Luck Casino, Cheongun Village (F4)

Subject File card for The Doctor, a DMZ Lieutenant

Lieutenant 07

The Doctor

Where
Mirae General Hospital (F5)
Key drop
May drop The Doctor's Command Office Key for the Floor 7 offices (random loot).

DBN Headquarters roof, The Grid (G6)
Key drop
May drop Roze's Highrise Armory Key for Netshin Floor 14 (random loot).

The Warden

Where
14th Political Prison mess hall (B3)
Key drop
May drop Kang's Arms Incinerator key for the prison incinerator (random loot).
Tip
Pushes with a riot shield in the prison mess.

Disputed: ConquestCapped (Oct 28) says his loot room hasn't been found yet. The official guide's story has a Lieutenant's key, apparently the Warden's, opening a sealed door beneath NuriGO Mall.

Commanders

Roaming heavies. No key: extract the 3D Printer ingredient they drop. Plain gunfire barely touches them.

Subject File card for Colossus, a DMZ Commander

Commander 01

Colossus

Where
Roams Hajin (often Chang-san and the Citadel)
Drops
No key. Extract Military Composites after the kill (3D Printer ingredient).
Takedown
Take high ground or hard cover. Shoot during the pauses in his minigun fire.

Note: ConquestCapped sees him most in The Grid, Wolves Stadium and near SAM sites.

Subject File card for Deathstalker, a DMZ Commander

Commander 02

Deathstalker

Where
Roams the east city (NuriGO, DBN HQ)
Drops
No key. Extract the Prototype RF Module after the kill (3D Printer ingredient).
Takedown
Find it on the Tac Map. Capture a nearby SAM site (about 30 seconds), then hold the site and keep the drone in range.
Subject File card for Tank, a DMZ Commander

Commander 03

Tank

Where
Patrols the roads (often NuriGO streets)
Drops
No key. Extract Nano-Structured Alloy after the kill (3D Printer ingredient).
Takedown
Bullets do nothing. Use launchers, Thermite, C4 or Drill Charges from cover, and hit the sides and rear.

Note: The official guide calls it the Main NK Battle Tank. ConquestCapped sees it most in The Grid.
