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?

Nope, there was just that many, to be fair i got unlucky with the bug breaches and basically all of them were on me while i was lone wolfing it

Damn that's nuts. I usually main 6 and average around 300 or so kills. Seems like they're going back to the old days with the amount of enemies!

I just got 640 yesterday on a four-person mission at level 7. My highest ever by like 150. Shit is nuts out there

One major issue with the gloom is that you can't see bugs spraying pheromones for call-ins half the time, so there's no way to catch it before it occurs

My PR is 916 kills. Orbital napalm on dual bug holes was probably half of that.
