The convoy slows at the barricade and a metal dog drops from its belly like a timing belt gone wrong. Gunfire pops; an EMP singes your HUD and the city goes wired with warnings. You breathe, because you know how this mission reads on the map — three tasks, one clear path to the season’s next gate.
I’ve run Scout missions enough to read the clues without squinting; you’ll move faster if you treat each hint as a checklist rather than a surprise. Below I’ll strip the vagueness away and give you the clean steps that close Week 7 fast.
Traffic cones and barricades still litter Washington’s streets. The Division 2 Y8S1 Rise Up Scout 7 solutions
Scout 7 hands you three short clues. Each one maps to a task you can complete in normal play — no exotic trick, just targeted activity.
- “Black Tusk are using Warhounds to snoop on wifi networks around the White House. We need to stop them.”
- “Identify and eliminate Black Tusk intelligence agents.”
- “Black Tusk are planning to retaliate for our involvement in their espionage operation. Stop them.”
The tasks that decode those clues are:
- Defeat 3 Warhounds.
- Complete 2 Black Tusk Bounties.
- Defend a territory during a Black Tusk Retaliation.
You’ll notice Warhound convoys leave scorch marks and a flurry of drone signals. Defeat 3 Warhounds
Warhounds show up in random hostile events and specifically during Warhound Convoys. If you want a reliable spawn, slot into public events and watch activity markers; convoys announce themselves on the map.
How you drop them matters. Aim for limbs and the torso; EMP grenades punish their sensors and muscle servos. Three destroyed and the task clears.
How do I defeat Warhounds quickly?
Use precise rifle shots on joints, carry EMP grenades or a Shock turret, and don’t chase headshots if the legs are exposed. A coordinated squad with a support Station or Banshee Pulse shreds them faster than solo attempts.
The bounty board reads like a conveyor belt of small wars. Complete 2 Black Tusk Bounties
Open the Bounties tab, pick Black Tusk, and accept any two. Location and difficulty are your choices; higher difficulty tilts rewards. The objective is quantity and completion, not perfection.
Where are Black Tusk bounties located?
They spawn across the Washington map and appear in the Bounties menu under the Black Tusk filter. You can run them on PC via Steam or Ubisoft Connect, or on consoles via Xbox and PlayStation — platform choice doesn’t change the task list.
Control points pulse on your map like beacons. Defend a territory during a Black Tusk Retaliation
Start a Retaliation by taking a Control Point during a Black Tusk attack. Once you capture it, Black Tusk will counterattack. Kill the waves, hold the point, and the task completes when the district’s control points are secured.
How do Black Tusk Retaliations work?
When you flip a Control Point, the faction schedules a counterstrike. That triggers a Retaliation event: capture, then hold against waves that scale to your team. Support stations, area denial skills, and a single disciplined squad will make these short and profitable.
I track these problems with tools like Ubisoft Connect for session invites and Steam overlay on PC; GeForce Experience and controller profiles help smooth execution if you’re on desktop. Run the activities with friends on Xbox or PlayStation and you’ll cut the clock.
Week 9 will hand you an HVT again — one of the season’s decisive gates — so don’t stall on this one. You want the momentum now, because momentum compounds; small wins turn into better drops and easier runs.
