The Division: 10 Crucial Tips & Tricks You Need To Know

8. Help Out Civilians In Need

As you take your time strolling through the beautifully destroyed and run down Manhattan, you'll come across some civilians who will approach you looking for help. Be aware, not every single citizen can be helped, as most will flee from you when approached, but certain ones will approach you of their own volition. Upon approaching, they will be scanned and it will show an item they need, like water or soda. However, if you do plan on forking over these items be careful, as sometimes the civilian will still get scared and flee from you - it's happened to me a couple times. If you give the civilian the item they need, they will sometimes drop an item for you - although at this point the items are mostly cosmetic such as gun skins or clothing. You will also be rewarded with some XP, so if you find yourself never using certain consumables for the buffs they give, go ahead and hand them over to the civilians in need, and you'll be rewarded for your kind deeds.
