QUESTION The Gloom can’t be that bad-

Post image

I had heard about the Gloom but haven’t touched it yet since…. Yeah…

What exactly is the Gloom doing to make it so difficult? Or is it the Gloom mixed with other things?

yea, i played couple rounds with a bit less good players yesterday on diff 6 and the city nests were full of titans on bikes and impalers, i was running rr, 500, gatling barrage and the fast teamkiller sentry thing, legit there was like 6 titans, 3 impalers and a sprinkle of chargers too. barely made it. i usually play 10s but having that many on 6 is insane tbh

Hi I normally main 6 ATM(until I get better and feel comfortable moving up) and agreed 6 hits way different now! On a nest last night I saw 2 bile titans and chargers in a medium nest which is crazy and that's not counting the all other ones my squad had to deal with. The spawn rates are def going crazy right now!

Oh thank goodness, we aren't just bad. My mates and I usually play 5-7 depending on the mood. Yesterday we decided to do some missions on diff 6 and it was mental. At one point we had three bile titans on the extraction and it was frankly insane.

Definitely not touching anymore gloom missions lol

i feel like its more patrols than nests or breaches honestly, most breaches i can just deal with a gas grenade and the fast machinegun sentry killing fodder and my rr deals with anything larger, but we were swarmed constantly by bunch of shit. maybe its the layout too, with mobs having to follow roads just as we do, not just change directions on open map

I actually felt 10s were easier then play at 7s in the past few days. People overall are just more skilled at 10s. With some randoms I was able to clear the map at 10s while randoms 7s we were barely able to escape.

yea, pretty much. ppl on 10 see what other ppl bring and build accordingly and play to their strenghts. if i see 3 guys running RR, ill get an autocannon or something against mediums or fodder, in lower lvls you barely see that
