#

How many enemies does it take to clog up a cfoamed ladder? Only 1 or is it more?

wind wren
#

That's a lot more than I thought. Does that mean all of those will be using up the cfoam simultaneously? Or how does that work

#

Oh also is there a way to approximate how much cfoam is needed to keep enemies stuck at a ladder for a certain time?

past mesa
wind wren
#

That matters? Uhhh
We'd be 4 rooms away within 2-3 minutes

#

2+ rooms within 40sec

past mesa
#

Yeah once you are 2+ rooms if you have more than 60% it tends to last the full 5 minutes

#

Enemies 2+ rooms away behave werid

#

What level is the c foam strategy

wind wren
#

Oh right, I remember being told smth abt that. Alr so aim for 60%

@hardy grotto

tardy ingot
#

extra tool is just a tool to delay them longer

#

i had all the numbers written down for % in size of blobs (different amounts of blobs) on ladders when 1 or 2+ rooms away

past mesa
#

Sometimes they foam door it probably doesn’t matter

tardy ingot
#

as i did by far the most testing on this during r2e1 speeds

wind wren
#

Okeoke. Gud to know, its just we'd also be using a couple of blobs on door so I was very unsure if we'd have enough

tardy ingot
#

the extra tool is massively helpful in getting 2+ rooms away

past mesa
#

2+ rooms is free r4 e1

tardy ingot
wind wren
#

Well for r4e1 for that ladder it's fortunately very easy to get the far cuz the next rooms are small af

tardy ingot
#

once you are 2+ rooms away you get an rng amount of enemies usually. But r4e1 seems to be very consistently 1 enemy being stuck

#

funnily enough the break even harder there (remember the thing we found out jish)

#

so you basically just need enough foam to keep 1 enemy foamed until last scan is over (max ~4 min due to foam disappearing)

wind wren
#

the break even harder there?

tardy ingot
#

once they are stuck

#

even if you come back and jump down

wind wren
tardy ingot
#

they wont attack until they went up and then down

tardy ingot
wind wren
tardy ingot
#

dont make blobs bigger than 2 full charges tho

#

unless you have extreme excess

#

anything above 60% per bubble is wasted tho

wind wren
#

Does it have diminishing returns?/does it just delete the cfoam above that like it does on doors?

tardy ingot
#

foam bubbles have a limited amount of blobs they can take on (iirc)

#

you do get diminishing returns depending on spend % per bubble on a ladder tho

#

idk why that is tho aside from potentially eating up foam twice or some shit

wind wren
#

Very good to know though

#

Thanks for answering my questions : D

quick question... me and my friends were playing a long time ago like at least a year ago. we played a mission that was a cicular hole in the ground. you start at the bottom and move up the sides via stair cases with your whole team in a moving bioscan upwards. We just got back in the game and want to try to get back to that to beat it. Does anyone know the rundown?

ocean spindle
#

most probably r6c1 it's the mission ur talkin about
it's on the ending, the final section of the level

#

there's a big mother at the end of ||R3D1|| right?

midnight tulip
#

also why is she called "pee mother" by some?

dry pumice
#

Because P Mother

midnight tulip
#

what does the P stand for? Primordial?

dry pumice
#

Either Proto or Prime, we dont know.

#

But in some level or another the objective are containers that have "P-Mother sample" written on them.

#

So it's almost a canon name, we just don't know what P stands for

midnight tulip
#

I see

R2A1 has you collect pmother samples

#

hey since im a bit new can i have some advise on how to beat r1 the admin in the best way

jagged shore
#

are you playing alone, or with people, or with bots

tight blaze
#

bots

jagged shore
#

where are you dying

tight blaze
#

on the part were u put the key card in the door

jagged shore
#

you can probably get away with just using 3 sentries as long as you put them all facing the doorway they're gonna come through

tight blaze
#

k thanks ill try that

placid ember
#

you can also give one of the bots a cfoam launcher and tell them to foam the door shut, this should give you plenty of time to finish the scans

#

and then focus on shooting

tight blaze
#

k

jagged shore
#

i would not recommend giving bot cfoam of all things lol

#

that's like the one thing i wouldn't

tight blaze
#

ill try both

jagged shore
#

just because they can be finicky with how they spray it

placid ember
#

eh, its the first level you dont have to be ultra efficient

tight blaze
#

thank u to all who helped me since i have now done the first level

olive robin
#

Bots are best with scanner, sentries are second best, mines are third, foam is fourth I guess

#

Mines are low cause they struggle to place them sometimes

visual iris
dry pumice
#

Respectfully disagree

#

At least with mines its binary of either "I can't do that" or they just do it

#

With cfoam there is a chance they will straight up just misuse it by shooting it somewhere else and thus wasting resources

#

Just recently had it happen on R7B1 with a Cfoam grenade. I point dead center of door, tell him to throw - he throws it a goddamn wall instead. Not far away from the door, mind you - but insultingly close instead. Its right there, and yet it's precisely where its not gonna do jack shit. Not even on the floor, goddammit...

#

Either you're the foam guy, or there's no foam guy - its that simple with bots.

tepid sand
#

Bots with mines >>> bots with cfoam

visual iris
#

i assume u havent used em much then

ocean spindle
#

bots with mines >> bots with foam but they r ok in both

#

tho i have the mines

#

cause i just like usin em weird

visual iris
#

there is a delay before the command kicks in their gears and they may or may not do it

#

if there are any active enemies or during an error or an alarm they will not place mines 80% of the time

dry pumice
#

Aaaand?

midnight tulip
#

just place them before the alarm then

sturdy glen
#

they also wont go through the door youre trying to mine anyways

visual iris
#

they also try to place mines from weird angles if there a door is colliding with some wall

dry pumice
#

Usually if a level requires bold mining - either i'm not doing it with bots or i'm picking a mine deployer myself.

#

Except then they undermine that as well by getting stuck behind a door and...

#

Personally i just don't consider bold mining a viable strategy if i'm playing with bots. I just need them to help me slowly setup alarm preparations, and that's that.

tardy ingot
#

now imagine making bots foam during a situation where you wanna quickly foam and mine

haughty wyvern
#

What's the best loadout as a more "support" role?

ocean spindle
#

support like in alarm? depends tbh
i mean i guess the 'obvious answer' its the hel autopistol since its a stagger weapon, not a dmg weapon

#

but i doubt its actually useful in many many levels

lone tusk
#

hel shotgun wld be btr imo

ocean spindle
#

id say u just kinda go more for weapons that u feel u can kill with and supply the team with that it lacks

#

like if u see 3 snipers

#

might as well go machinegun to be the support for lil enemies

soft crater
#

hel shotgun can be support. but let's be honest not everyone uses it that way

lone tusk
#

LOL

ocean spindle
#

i think hel shottie is more made to be spammed at a wave and kill it not so much to support it

lone tusk
#

hel shotgun staggers waves

#

not as much dmg as other guns

soft crater
#

so can auto pistol

lone tusk
#

yea

ocean spindle
# lone tusk not as much dmg as other guns

yeah but its a two shot, with hel penetration, if u spam it at a wave, the two shot kills most enemies, the stagger makes em be at the same place, the full auto continues, and its a mag of like 14 or 12 or somethin

#

so u can take, a whole wave

#

with good placement

#

its not made for individual enemies

soft crater
#

but helshotgun you can still be a close range dmg dealer

lone tusk
#

i mean it really depends on what your team brings

soft crater
#

auto pistol can't do that

ocean spindle
#

kinda, id say it depens more on the level

#

cause its short range

#

so in somethin like an r1c1 its

#

very eh

hel shotgun has 187 potential dmg per mag

next to max ammo of 97

tardy ingot
# lone tusk not as much dmg as other guns

Huh
What?
How is this gun „low dmg“ when it litteraly deletes waves

As solace said. Its got by far the highest dmg per mag, not even counting penetration. Obviously you will never hit all the dmg. But just hitting 50% makes it better than most other guns on 100% musicmommyOMEGALUL

misty kernel
#

hel revolver & revolver (special) which is stronger and can 1 shot chargers?

ashen frigate
#

Neither can 1 shot chargers

#

(from the front at least ; getting behind a Charger running at you can be tricky)

misty kernel
#

yeah cant do that

#

trying to redo the mission after alarm nonstop chargers rushes towards u in R3

ashen frigate
#

Ah, R3C1

misty kernel
#

1 shotgun sentry, mine, scanner and c-foam is correct?

ashen frigate
#

Shotgun / ChokeMod are quite decent

#

To run > shoot > reload your way to the extraction

misty kernel
#

dunno what to give to bots
will they shoot from distant far away and tickle enemies like idiots or are they smart and wait for enemies to come near if i give them 2 shotguns?

tardy ingot
#

hel rifle go brr on chargers

#

Otherwise high cal

misty kernel
tardy ingot
tardy ingot
# misty kernel and main weapon?

theres lots of good options (as in decent vs chargers)

Hel revo (4 shot and pen), dmr (4 shot), carbine (4 burst), sawed off (1 tap if all pellets hit), hel shotgun (holds back/kills bunched up chargers) etc etc

misty kernel
#

hel shotgun didnt 1 shot

#

or 2 shot

#

worse damage than choke or buckland

ashen frigate
#

You probably do not want to use HEL Shotgun against Chargers :)

misty kernel
ashen frigate
#

Too much spread and they are quite tanky

#

Shotguns with a tighter spread (Shotgun / Chokemod / Sawed-off) are much better against Chargers

tardy ingot
ashen frigate
#

Also this, yes

tardy ingot
#

hel shotgun works very well against groups of them

tardy ingot
#

since pen + big mag = destruction

tardy ingot
misty kernel
#

sawed off eems nice but i hate low ammo guns

tardy ingot
#

shotguns and sawed off have 30 dmg. You need 30 dmg

tardy ingot
#

sawed off gets ~8 kills if you kill 1 enemy per shot

tardy ingot
#

most guns gets 8-9 at perfect efficiency (headshots, no overshooting etc)

misty kernel
#

i know choke and sawed off

tardy ingot
#

shotgun is shotgun

misty kernel
#

u mean bukland

tardy ingot
#

No

#

Shotgun

misty kernel
#

shotgun is bukland

tardy ingot
#

nop

misty kernel
#

yep

tardy ingot
#

theres multiple bucklands

#

theres is 1 „shotgun“

misty kernel
#

buckland s870

ashen frigate
#

Most Shotgun variants in game are made by "buckland" manufactor

tardy ingot
misty kernel
#

so im correct

#

s870 is the shotgun

ashen frigate
#

Nobody calls it that way

dry pumice
#

Technically yes, but no one uses or remembers those names.

misty kernel
#

but im correct

dry pumice
#

The only time gun name comes into play is machine guns

misty kernel
#

about this right

#

wish authotgun was effective against chargers

#

5x shot to kill them or sth

#

especially when they grouped up

tardy ingot
#

its 3 shots

dry pumice
#

(ideally)

tardy ingot
#

when grouped it just staggers and kills them

misty kernel
#

aimed at their chest if they r looking towards u right?

tardy ingot
ashen frigate
tardy ingot
#

?

#

because chest = biggest mass to hit

ashen frigate
#

If you use a Shotgun, it will increase the probability that pellets spreading will hit the target :)

misty kernel
#

what if its not a shotgun and hel rifle?

#

or autorifle

#

still in the chest?

keen seal
#

wanna try hitting them in the arms or feet instead?

misty kernel
#

obv no, talking about the head

#

guess ill try autoshotgun and hel rifle

#

oh wait they r both special wtf do i pick in main then

keen seal
#

1 pierce and 1 shot stagger

#

takes 4 to kill though

dry pumice
#

Chargers don't have a head multiplier

#

So there's no point in shooting them to the head. Aside from forcing a stagger.

misty kernel
#

4 hel rev shots to kill charger? bruh

dry pumice
#

So you just aim for center body mass.

#

And yes, main weapons generally suck against chargers. 30 HP doing numbers.

#

At least shooters have their x5 head...

tardy ingot
misty kernel
#

no other gun to use on main?

#

that sounds bad

dry pumice
#

Lmao

#

It's literally the best you'll get

misty kernel
#

hmph fine

dry pumice
#

HELRev and DMR are 2 strongest hitters among mains with 8.0 and 7.5 damage respectively.

#

Helshotgun I don't even know.

ashen frigate
#

Sawed-off wants a word

dry pumice
#

Oh right, I keep forgetting the baguette exists.

ashen frigate
#

The baguette pwns

dry pumice
#

Sawed off is very strong against chargers because it deals amazing 30 damage, which is exactly as much as you need for a kill.

#

Issue: the shots will have to be point blank.

ashen frigate
#

It may be underused, but it is very good in its current state.

dry pumice
#

Or you bring something like Heavy Assault Rifle and use it to finish off the left overs.

dry pumice
#

But again: reminder that it's the best you will get for chargers among mains.
Mains are not big damage dealers - that's specials' job, and there are many options for quick charger deletion.

solid dew
#

Honestly I'm not a fan of hel rev against chargers but agreed that it's probably one of the better options.

I tend to run choke mod for chargers more often. Ammo isn't great but the range makes up for it, and 1 may usually can clear enough for me to be able to kite.

worldly geyser
#

So what kind of situations is each sentry useful in? I understand full auto is for delaying a wave in a corridor, but besides that, burst seems better equipped for most situations

civic wave
#

Burst sentry for murdering smalls
Shotgun sentry for short lasting power
Sniper sentry for long sightlines/big enemies
Auto sentry for nothing, never, don't touch that thing

Sniper sentry is the only decent alternative, and it has major weaknesses.

Just that it requires the setup to allow for it (corridors)

lusty bramble
#

Symbiosis can make it pretty okay

soft crater
#

Less ammo needs bio to shoot okay

#

Otherwise a striker can run like 30-40m before that thing even fires

Shotgun sentry got ammo buffed but it still burns through it quickly.

I didnt have much to do and I did a run with vanilla bots on r4b1 extreme, placed 1 shotgun sentry out of reactor, I had like 10% cpu speed and a bot with bio: sentry shot 2 times after a target was dead

#

Cpu speed on shotgun sentry

#

Is bad

It stand by that it nearly wasted half of its ammo

There's a reason Dak made it fire slower in occlusion

#

Sniper WAS incredibly strong and now it's good if the situation arises, which makes sense since a sniper is supposed to be situational

It doesn't mean anything, just weird enemy visualisation

red dots on bio has never been fixed since the very beginning

What's interesting is that it always seems to affect same enemies in the same rooms

Which is fascinating... Why would it do that.

Do enemies have specific IDs or something?...

It means you can’t ping them it is some fail safe measure that they haven’t fixed with loading and reloading sleepers

Suspend disbelief is a hard skill

It doesn't, i just like to keep things true.

jagged shore

yeah there's a little something called suspension of disbelief as well
you suspend your disbelief of something that doesn't make sense, in order for a game to work

but also, what super high tech stuff do we have access to on level drop

That's not what i'm saying

why give death row inmates nice ass guns when the old ones do good enough

Here are my nano bots that make anything for construction

Not high tech

dry pumice
#

We're not prisoners, canonically. Prisoners is a nickname that Warden came up with because apparently our guys respond to orders better when they're called that. Before that we were just... I think BIOCOM basically just reffered to us as "resources", since KSOs are basically just robots anyway.

Hitscan*. "Bullet Velocity of these guns is fucking slow"

and surely they could make a dispenser that didn't require a 5 second period before it's able to catapult everything out

that'd probably be more expensive though, in this world

they have enough of the foam to pack it into little grenades all over the complex

wait did they remove the ablity to play a rundown without it unlocked?

jagged shore
#

oh for sure, i just don't think a foam existing, in obviously copius amounts throughout the complex that they can just chuck a bunch of it into little packets on a grenade, or whatever tf, and it existing in a launcher that we have access to easily is not very, "high tech"

say imk trying to play R6 D1 but dont have it unlocked and when i drop it drops like normal and then i get booted

that's not related to you having the level unlocked or not

I just completed a mission (R1A1) and right below the artifact heat, it says COMPLETED: [ 2,-,-,-]. what does that mean?

ocean spindle

the - are for optional objectives which dont appear until later

soft crater
#

until R4

ocean spindle
#

but in case a mission has side ones, itll appear as 0, 0, 0, 0

soft crater
#

R1/R2/R3 do not have optionals (Secondary / Overload )

ocean spindle
#

or 0, 0, -, - if its just the secondary

civic wave
#

The dashes designate optional objectives
Main, Extreme/Secondary, Overload, Prisoner Efficiency (Main + Extreme/Secondary + Overload in the same run)

golden bluff
#

oh alright, thanks everyone.

dry pumice
#

To be precise dashes mean that those objectives are not present

#

Basically its not a mechanic you will encounter until you reach... Rundown 4?...

#

Because that's where the concept of optional side objectives is born, first 3 rundowns are mainmain only

When ever i try to join a rundown i dont have unlocked i will never load in however last time i played i was able to run anyrundown no matter if lockedf or unlocked(when i join a freind and we deploy)

i will go through the drop animation and either get stuck forever or ill get booted

#

did they change it?

It has nothing to do with you not having the level unlocked

They did not change it, it seems like a bug that prevents you from loading in properly

timid grove

witch is better PDW or heavy smg

ocean spindle
#

both r good
hsmg has less ammo, bit more dmg [2.15 vs 2.45 or so] an pdw has the thermal goin for it

thats basically it, well pdw its a bir shorter range, shorter reload

but by, small numbers

they r very similar id say its just taste

You will either play behind them all the time

If your really insist on having a bit deal with giants then yeah give 1 of them the bc

But optimizing them for chargers its bad

Most of theyre ability to deal with bigs/chargers/big waves its to stagger to give them time for them to shoot

Or abuse backpedaling by just gaining distance and force the bot to shoot

1 question

#

how dumb is the brazil skip

sturdy glen
#

very

#

its not even viable for speed

solemn flint
#

that sound fun

#

is there any rng involves or is it just pure skill issue?

sturdy glen
#

the respawn zones on the way to reactor are the main rng

#

theres a little bit of looting rng when you get to the room scan part but

native sun
# sturdy glen its not even viable for speed

I kinda think it might be, the speed requires a fast stealth zone anyway, so you're not losing anything there, and in The brazil skip they do a 2-2 split for reactor and dealing with chargers + Pablo, but you can honestly solo hold chargers + Pablo so you have 3 players to speed up reactor clear

sturdy glen
#

I dont think its possible to pull it off tho

#

not in a way thats any faster than current

#

playing "safe" is still stupid af

#

therefore, not viable

solemn flint
#

how can you solo chargers and pablo

#

also can pablo wake stuff up?

native sun
#

If he gets within two rooms of you, yes, so you have to get through the stealth zone so fast that you stay 2 rooms from Pablo the whole time

solemn flint
#

my guess is that u have to run through the stealth zone

#

sound fun enough

sturdy glen
#

did you watch one of the clear povs

solemn flint
#

eva pov

#

its really chaos and fun

glad saddle

does failing the hacking actually alert enemies?

how did you watch evas pov and still think its chaos and fun

theyre the one who babysits pablo for most of it

and scouts dont get alerted by sprinting they just extend their tentacles?

glad saddle
#

ok thank you

jagged shore

because it does
that's really all there is to it

are there any single rooms bigger than 50 lol

the only interesting parts are both times going through the mom respawn zones

Iirc room dividers are just treated like doors so it'd be -20

inland vault
#

Can I get some recommendations for decent crowd controller primaries?

civic wave
#

Hel shotgun

#

That or you shoot good with carbine or hel revolver (shoot to stagger)

inland vault
#

what would you consider the max effective range for hel shotty? my team typically prefers to keep their distance in most gun battles

ocean spindle
#

hel shotty is a close quarters gun
small range but if used right stops a whole wave
i'd depends more on the level, but in most it's plausible to go with it cause most levels in gtfo r close quarters

#

but i guess it would be a change on how u play

#

if u want distance guns u can go dmr, hel revo, carbine, rifle... dmr n rifle arent crowd control per se but have very big range and are very good weapons

#

most main weapons that are crowd control r just to kill 3 4 sleepers in a mag and that's about it
specials are really the ones that can hold a big wave by themselves cause specials are the stronger weapon

inland vault
#

i've stuck with carbine for a good while, but hel shotty's potential has always been appealing to me. it's just that my team doesn't like it, or rather they don't like playing around it ig

ocean spindle
#

hel shotty required a play style yeah
it's a gun that requires a way to be, and that way to be might not work on every level

dry pumice
#

HEL Auto Pistol also exists. It literally exists for crowd control.

ocean spindle
#

ah i forgot of that one, but it's niche, it's not that useful on most cases

#

it's a stagger weapon rather than a dmg one

dry pumice
#

Its basically HEL Shotgun, only with no damage. But hey, it reloads in like... 1.0 second or something

ocean spindle
#

if u want an auto that its the same with the dmg, machinepistol

civic wave
#

Honestly, you'll do more by putting one carbine burst into each enemy than using hel autopistol

ocean spindle
#

yeah

inland vault
ocean spindle
#

tbh with an auto u can probs stagger it too if u do enough dmg

#

or use ur special to do it faster

dry pumice
#

What was the HELAP damage again?... 1.0?...

ocean spindle
#

yeah

dry pumice
#

And the SMG?

ocean spindle
#

like 2.somethin i think?

#

maybs less

#

hold on

dry pumice
#

1.98

#

Pretty much correct

ocean spindle
#

yeah

#

and has the same mag and a fast reload too

#

and i think a lil bit more range

dry pumice
#

I would love to experiment with increaing HELAP damage.

#

We gotta try like... 1.4 or something

inland vault
#

so ig my current loadout now is carbine/hel shotty + veruta mg. does that seem solid?

ocean spindle
#

yeah seems oki

#

machineguns really flexible

#

u can make it work with pretty much any main

#

and remember usually loadouts also depend on the mission, if it's one with tons of bigs u might want somethin with more dmg, if it's a long range level u might want some long range special, if it's super close quarters mayb a shotgun...

#

it always comes down to being flexible and goin in for what's best in the level

inland vault
#

k thx. i gotta catch some z's. i'm tired af

ocean spindle
#

aight, goodnight :3

misty kernel
#

is R6AX hard?

#

whats in there? what loadout?

#

or just go to b1 if u completed A1?

soft crater
#

It isn't really hard.

#

But it is a bit more than the usual A level

#

Specifically one part of the mission that is.

dry pumice
# misty kernel is R6AX hard?

Its a curved ball for an A, but its doable. I've beaten it with bots twice now. IMHO 3 sentries + biotracker is the way to go, you won't get much value out of cfoam or mines later on

soft crater
#

Normal path in R6 is A-D and then X levels tbf

dry pumice
#

Speaking of which. Is the bridge alarm wave direction scripted?

#

They technically should be coming from 3 different places, but they reliably only come from one place for me.

soft crater
#

I can't remember ngl

#

There another alarm in that tileset

#

Somewhere else

#

And I get it confused together every time

dry pumice
#

I believe a similiar room can be found in R5A2(?)

hidden ridge
#

Also R4B3

misty kernel
#

just did b1

hidden ridge
#

IMHO = In my humble opinion

ocean spindle
#

probs burst sentries tho

#

also i think u can also do it two bursts one mine but

misty kernel
#

yeah that plan sucks

ocean spindle
#

both work

misty kernel
#

so many doors

#

mine cfoam would worked better

ocean spindle
#

and the, second hardest part has none either

#

i personally had a mine deployer but i wouldn't pick the foam now

misty kernel
#

how would mine alone work

#

without c-foam to gather enemies at the door

ocean spindle
#

doors do take a while to be broken even without foam
most alarms are pretty short and u can get it fast by gettin rid of the first wave of enemies
and blood door

#

which is well made to be mined

misty kernel
#

all alarm 4 and 5s

ocean spindle
#

tho i think u can find mines and foam nades in the level

misty kernel
#

they arent fast and easy alarm doors

ocean spindle
misty kernel
#

not short

#

its 4 & 5

ocean spindle
#

the first one can be done like in two three waves and if u funnel with ur sentry it's pretty easy

#

the second one has two doors together and a sentry will see both

tardy ingot
#

honestly i prefer having foam and mines for R6AX, makes the alarms chill
but sentries do work aswell

ocean spindle
#

it's just is the ||zone scan and the final dessert part, which is the hardest two parts|| will work better with sentries

#

but i guess u can get away with anythin

cosmic sequoia
#

What guns would you personally bring to R1C1? Machine gun makes sense for ammo/efficiency, but I wonder if someone should have some quicker DPS for hybrids/giants?

#

Assuming 3 sentries and bio with a bot

hidden ridge
#

In terms of guns I'd always get 1 sniper to pop the hybrids

#

I usually get myself DMR (pops shooter's heads from far) and Sniper

#

Rifle IMHO's fine

#

PR does fine because most of the enemies are smalls and you have corridors

cosmic sequoia
#

Right range and drop off seem important as the most threatening enemies are probably the hybrids

#

Thanks

#

Maybe we'll try DMR, Sniper 2 machine guns 😉

hidden ridge
#

Just dont get more than 1 sniper or stuff like that

cosmic sequoia
#

or you think 1 DMR/sniper plus 3 crowd clearing weapons are better?

hidden ridge
cosmic sequoia
#

ah sorry, ok cool so we easily have both

hidden ridge
#

DMR/Sniper on whoever feels like a sharpshooter, burst rifle/ Arbalist or Rifle/PR

#

Just try to have a max of 1 sniper, really

#

and no more than 1-2 PRs

ocean spindle
#

i think on main weapons u can take pretty much whatever that is minimally long range as long as ur comfy with it
dmr rifle doubletap pistol some automatics like heavy smg all of those can work perfectly fine

hidden ridge
#

3 sentries but try to place the third one only on waves 4-6-8

#

cause only those have hybrids and giants

cosmic sequoia
#

We learned that lesson. Wiped near the end as sentries ran dry at worst moment
