What do you pick up in the new and improved 1.2 DZ?

We are having a small battle in our group at the moment.  You could say our lovely squad marriage is on the rocks.  Just wondering what you guys pick up.  Here's both sides of the argument.

Two guys in our group are picking up EVERYTHING.  Their argument is that with stash's in the checkpoints its a nice quick way to get cash and materials via selling and breaking down gear. 

Myself and one other in our squad would rather focus on killing bosses for strictly gold gear and set pieces whilst (I love that word) only picking up purples if they are sealed caches.  When we pick up every single thing that drops I feel like we do nothing but sit around extraction ropes singing kumbayah (Sp?) and wasting time.  

Every time we clear an area someone chimes in with "I need an extraction" and it drives me crazy because I've already looked at the map and am heading for the next boss.

So my question is how do you guys go about your farming???

 
Originally we picked up purple caches, now we don't. Greens and golds only. We only get gold/green drops, waiting every other full DZ 5/6 loop to do an extract. We pop DZ crates when we see them but only to get the credits. We ignore the 163/182s from the crates but occasionally pickup the 32 mods if they are good. A good night can yield a bunch of 204 weapons and 240s. Try to get at least one/two of the supply drops when they pop. From our experience, we are finding DZ grinding to be the best way to get loot presently.

99% agreed. I'll still grab purple caches if I have a slot to fill and others are full on the way to the extraction, but it's just for the non-item goodies inside (DZ currency and division tech). I'm only picking up 204 weapons that look useful, level 31/32 mods that also look useful (can't resist an angled grip for a shot at double stability), and anything green/teal. Everything else just gets left behind.
