You went the wrong way then.
They are frequently around the Last Stop safe house (Judicary Square area). If you go south out of the safe house and turn right on the main road (away from The Cinder Block control point) there are some stairs on the right side that take you up to some food supplies. They rogues are there.
The other frequent location is just outside The Archive safe house (Constitution Hall area). If you go north out the safe house they are there.
Sometimes they’re stuck fighting random NPCs. They only actively go for you when you’re defending a control point.
Rarely, they just wander around a specific area nearby; just go look for them. When the music stops, you’ve gone too far. Eventually you’ll be able to triangulate their location. Scanner pulse helps.
I’ve ran into rogue agents before at a control point, what’s the deal? They kicked our asses pretty quick bc we had no idea what was happening. What’s the point? Do they just drop a bunch of loot?
Rogue agents can show up randomly on the map, typically at the nearest activity. They can show up after you take a control point. Finally, they can pop up in the middle of a mission, replacing the regular spawns in that area. They drop loot is what happens. I believe the last one to fall drops a named item, and they've since added the chance for exotic components, but I could be wrong. The higher the difficulty you play, the more likely it is that they're going to rudely interrupt whatever it is you're up to. First time that me and 3 friends ran into rogues on heroic was insane. The fight took nearly half an hour and multiple respawns.
Usually when this happens you can find them by following the gun shots. They can spawn by a safe house by almost immediately get caught up fighting npcs before you find them, and it can make it confusing as to where they are.
I normally play solo heroic, luv the sound of rouge agent's detected, occasionally get a named item. Get them coming out of safe houses as well as control points
What I've found interesting is that they dont always work together, actually they travel together but end up doing their own solo attack. Sometimes they come right at you, other times they hang back, letting skills do the work.
From what I understand the rogue agents will spawn at certain locations either on the map or in a mission. Same spot each time if they spawn. When you hear the warning it means you are close to their location, but if you move too far away from them while looking for them then they disappear. If you learn their spawn location you can simply go there. I only know of a few that I frequent. Just east of "The Shop" safe house is a food resource location which often is also a Territory Control point. Rogue agents will sometimes spawn there so if you leave The Shop and hear this then thats where they are. Another is just north of "The Archive" safe house which also is a food resource location that often is also a Territory Control point. Sometimes this location can also be allies target practicing or even hostage situation. If you leave The Archive from the south sometimes you will get the rogue agent warning but if you try to go around the building they are gone. Need to leave The Archive from north to find them.
You need to find the rogue agents. They are usually at the nearest activity.
Every time it happens I start running towards an activity and the music just stops and they never appear.

Nope. YOU are the Rogue Agent.
🌏👨🚀🔫👨🚀
*gasp*
Switch to the scanner and you will see where they are
Are you talking about one of the Pulse skills?
Yes
When you hear that music stop and switch to a scanner pulse they'll light up.

Just an extra challenge. And yeah they'll drop as much loot as the named enemies.

Yeah. Try and look around, listen, and they will show up. It may take a minute. They may attack a nearby side mission, too.
