DMZ Exfil Tracking guide: How to plant tracking devices on 3 enemy exfil choppers

You will die, a lot.

Warzone 2 has plenty of difficult challenges to complete, however, there’s one that stands out above the rest. You’ll likely be spending all your time finding keys, opening doors, and killing enemies scattered throughout Al Mazrah, but the Exfil Tracking mission, in particular, requires the utmost care.

The Exfil Tracking mission involves you planting a tracking device on three separate enemy exfil helicopters, which means you’ll need all the armor you can get, paired with smokes galore to get you in and out of a sticky situation as fast as possible.

You can do this solo, but it’ll be unbelievably difficult, so we recommend finding a friend or two. 

Here’s everything you need to know in order to complete the Exfil Tracking mission in DMZ.

Camp exfil locations for the Exfil Tracking mission

You’ll need to set yourself up in a sneaky spot. This could be in a bush, a small room, or even hidden in plain sight. Whichever way you approach it, you cannot be seen nor can you die. 

Find an exfil location on your map (the blue person running to a door), and camp there until an enemy team decides to evacuate. There are several scattered across Al Mazrah. You can wait at the same one, or you can move along to the various other locations on the map.

As the helicopter slowly drops to the ground, wait until it’s landed. You’ll have 30 seconds to make your way over and plant the device on the back left side of the chopper.

Ask for help with the Exfil Tracking mission

To complete the Exfil Tracking mission in DMZ you cannot call the exfil yourself, but that doesn’t mean you can’t cheese the mission to some extent. Use proximity chat (and you’re own gift of gab) to your advantage and explain to nearby teams your current predicament. There’s a decent chance that they’ll show mercy and call the exfil choppers in for you.

If you use this tactic, it’s advised to deploy with a relatively empty inventory, as you’ll likely be shot on site a few times before you strike gold.

Alternatively, you can have a teammate get downed and then plead to join another enemy team. If luck is on your side, they’ll show mercy, which leaves your friend free to call the exfil choppers in for you. This will significantly speed up the process.

The final step for the Exfil Tracking mission:

Once you’ve completed planting three devices, there is one more step. You will have a short amount of time, which will appear on your screen, to make your way to the final extraction point. You will have to plant one last device on the back left side of the helicopter, and then you may exfil out of Al Mazrah.

This will take time, you will likely fail on your first attempt. Getting your teammate to switch teams and join back at the end is an incredibly effective way to complete the task. Just remember, you will be fighting teams and AI opponents, so bring your best aim.
