The Division 2 stomped me into a burning street with one patrol left and a flare of Cleaners on the horizon. Heart racing, I realized the week’s Scout ladder would hinge on three small, stubborn objectives. You can clear them faster than you think if you follow a simple plan.
The Division 2 Y8S3 Red Horizon Week 10 Manhunt: Scout 10 solutions
On a Tuesday night I saw a map full of icons and felt the same familiar impatience you do when a timer clicks down. I’ll walk you through each task, why it’s easy, and the tactics I used to finish Scout 10 without wasting time or ammo.
How do I complete Scout 10 in The Division 2?
You get three sequential tasks that reveal themselves one at a time — complete the first to reveal the second, and so on. I decoded all three clues so you don’t have to chase red herrings: Kill 50 Cleaners; complete a Cleaners Territory Control event; capture a control point from the Cleaners.
Observation: Most players treat faction bounties like busywork; I treat them like purpose-built farming runs.
Kill 50 Cleaners. This is the longest task but not the hardest. Start a bounty that spawns Cleaners — they’ll flood the map and count toward the total. Play on any difficulty you prefer to save time; on Xbox, PlayStation, or Steam the behavior is the same. Use area-of-effect weapons or high-rate fire to chew through mobs. The math is simple: a few bounty runs and you’re done.
Where can I find Cleaners Territory Control events?
Territory Control events pop up across districts and are marked by two crossed shotguns on your map. If you don’t see one, quit to orbit and relaunch the session — it’s a stubborn but reliable reset method. Territory Control must be a Cleaners event to count; ignore the wrong factions and move on.
Observation: Control points are often defended in predictable waves; treat them like a rhythm to master.
Capture 1 control point from the Cleaners. I found the Washington Monument control point active on my map — your session may show others. If the wrong faction holds every control point, you can reset your vault progress or relaunch the session to get a Cleaners-held point to flip.
Start the assault, clear the first wave, then be patient: the second wave will arrive and must be wiped entirely for the capture to register. Positionally focus on choke points and use grenades or turret support to force the second wave into predictable lanes.
How do I capture a control point from the Cleaners?
Push in, control the center, and kill every spawn in the second wave. If you leave one Cleaner alive they’ll stall the capture and you’ll waste time. Use cover and suppressors if you want stealth; otherwise bring loud tools and a friend or two. Ubisoft’s servers and Destiny-style public event fatigue mean patience is part tool here.
Observation: Small efficiencies stack; shave minutes off each objective and the climb becomes trivial.
I used Ubisoft Connect to confirm faction bounties, and I switched between Steam and a quick Xbox session when events wouldn’t spawn — a hard reload often forces new territory events to appear. Treat the map as a chessboard, where moving one pawn reveals an entire flank; each control point you flip is a hot coal you can carry to finish the sequence quickly.
Play smart: pick a comfortable difficulty, run focused bounties, reset a session when events don’t line up, and you’ll finish Scout 10 in shorter time than the clock implies. Want to argue whether this is effective strategy or exploit-friendly play?
