Roze is the sniper Lieutenant of MW4 DMZ, and she holds the roof of DBN Headquarters in The Grid. She is always up top, with a hood over her head and a unique sniper rifle that can reach you all the way over at NuriGO Mall. This guide shows where Roze spawns, how to get up to her, how to kill her, what she drops and where her Highrise Armory key goes.

TL;DR
  • Roze always spawns on the roof of DBN Headquarters in The Grid (G6). The exact spot on the roof changes from game to game.
  • Find her with a Lieutenant Hunt Tower or her intel on the Boss Board ($25,000, locked until the Underground chapter is done).
  • Get up with the two ropes in the stairwell, or land a helicopter on the helipad, fast, before her DDoS takes it down.
  • She drops her sniper rifle (we got the Astaroth .57 and The Kraken), a loot backpack and her Lieutenant dog tag.
  • Her key, Roze’s Highrise Armory, opens a room with a Lieutenant crate on floor 14 of the Netshin Tech Complex next door.
  • She has low health, so spray her head, and stay away from the edge, her sniper knocks you back. One of the easiest Lieutenants, worth it.

Where Roze Spawns

Roze lives on the roof of DBN Headquarters, the tower in the middle of The Grid, the walled business district of Hajin City. The building is an Extreme threat area. She always spawns on the roof, never inside the tower, but where exactly on the roof changes from game to game. She is on our interactive Hajin map.

SpotGridThreatWhere exactly
DBN Headquarters, helipadG6ExtremeThe helipad deck at the very top, near the railing on its edge.
DBN Headquarters, roof terraceG6ExtremeThe terrace just below the helipad, between the grey HVAC units and the yellow cables.

Two of our kills were on the helipad and two on the roof terrace. The fifth was at the top of the outside stairs that lead onto the roof. Her banner pops up once you get close to the roof.

How to Find Roze

There are two ways. You can buy her intel on the Boss Board for $25,000, which gives you a side op that leads you to her. Her card stays locked until you finish the Underground chapter of the DMZ Orders.

Roze also gives herself away. Her sniper reaches far, all the way to NuriGO Mall, and a hit from it knocks you back. If that happens anywhere near The Grid, Roze is out there.

The free way to find her is a Lieutenant Hunt Tower. Its terminal marks a Lieutenant, so you cannot pick Roze, but twice the tower at the South Korean Border Zone on the east side of the map sent us to her. Either way you get the side op Reach the Lieutenant’s Location, and from then on Roze is marked on your tac map with an icon above her head. That icon is visible from far away, so you can spot her on the roof of DBN Headquarters long before you get there. Without a Hunt Tower or intel there is no marker at all, and you only know she is there when her banner pops up.

How to Get to Roze in DBN Headquarters

On foot, you go in through the front of DBN Headquarters and climb. In the stairwell there are two ropes you can take one after the other, and they bring you almost to the top floor. From there, walk up a couple more staircases and take the outside stairs onto the roof. Expect soldiers on every floor. Between the Hunt Tower and Roze our kill counter went up by more than twenty.

The fastest way is a helicopter onto the helipad. The catch is that Roze, like every Lieutenant, has a DDoS zone around her. If it hits your helicopter before you are down, it stops working, you drop to the ground and you are dead. So come in fast and land quickly. We pulled it off a few times, so it is very possible. In one run we flew from the Hunt Tower straight onto the helipad, where Roze was standing.

On the way in through The Grid we also ran into Colossus in one match, so keep an eye out for his banner on the streets around DBN Headquarters.

How to Kill Roze

The fight itself is fairly easy. Roze has low health, so she goes down quickly. In our runs she was dead within seconds once we had a clean line on her. Get a good spray on her head and that is it.

The one thing to watch out for is her sniper. If she lands a shot, its knockback pushes you back. Do not stand close to the edge of the roof while you fight her. DBN Headquarters is the tallest building on the map, so getting knocked off means a quick death.

What Roze Drops

Roze drops her sniper rifle, and it was not the same one every time. Twice it was the Astaroth .57, a Rare sniper rifle worth $6,400. Once it was The Kraken, a Legendary sniper rifle worth $25,600 that is built on the Astaroth .57. The Kraken came with five attachments, .57 Cal High Velocity ammunition, the FTAC Harbinger 45“ barrel, the FJX S-Tac Grip, the Usenko 900 BL-X muzzle and the Cronen Strand-BG Stock.

She also leaves a loot backpack. Twice it held a valuable. Once it was Degraded Execution Footage, a Rare valuable worth $2,000, and once the Sanctioned Assassination List, a Legendary valuable worth $10K. The rest was the usual mix of armor, plates and crafting ingredients.

Like every Lieutenant, Roze drops her Legendary dog tag. Extract with it for $25,000 and 1,000 XP, but it shows your position on the tac map to every other operator until you are out. The Kill Roze side op pays $2,000 and 500 XP on the spot, and the Boss Board pays $10,000 the first time you take her down.

Roze’s Highrise Armory Key

Roze’s key is Roze’s Highrise Armory, a Legendary key worth $100. It does not drop every time. We got it in one of our five kills, from her loot backpack. It is also the reward for Operation Grid Assault, and it counts for the Keep Out order.

The key opens the armory on floor 14 of the Netshin Tech Complex, the tower right next to DBN Headquarters. The door is a dark glass office door in a green wall under the Korean office sign, next to a fire extinguisher cabinet. Netshin is Extreme as well, with robodogs and turrets, so barricade the door behind you. Inside are a black and gold Lieutenant crate and two weapon lockers. We opened it twice. The second time The Kraken was in the Lieutenant crate and a Kastov 762 in one of the lockers, and unlocking the door gave 300 XP.

Is Roze Worth It?

Definitely. Roze is one of the easiest Lieutenants out there. She is a fast kill for a dog tag worth $25,000, and if you are lucky she drops The Kraken, which is worth another $25,600.

Bring a parachute if you can. You kill her on the highest building of the map, so with a parachute you can jump straight off the roof and go wherever you want next, to another Lieutenant or to an exfil. With her dog tag on you, you are a bigger target, so moving fast is a big help.
