was much easier than I expected. I only played it once, but it was an easy extract in just over 23 minutes. 2 teammates died on Wave 5 (one at the very beginning due to damn Hydra curving missiles) or it would have been faster. Other than Wave 5, no other deaths. We even had Wave 6 Hack and got through it no problem. Looking forward to playing this a few more hours today before it resets.
150,000 credits is a lot of cheddar for this!

Do I have to answer this ? it was 3x Avenger & 1x Human Infiltrator... I plan on trying the Scrapper tonight. I pulled all the agro on the wave 6 hack and survived a full onslaught bombardment. That was the only time I really felt in danger.

Congrats on a smooth (and seemingly quick) extraction. This APEX mission was my first Platinum game, last night. I died. And died. Then died some more. We had three good players (one that is really good), and well....me. It took three tries before we got extraction and - needless to say - I was the only one NOT to extract. Died again on wave 7 by way of stupid (took a left, when I should have gone right ). Had a mini-gun glued to my face. On the upside we finally found a way to talk with one of our teammates who doesn't have a mic, using Discords text-to-voice. "3-Y-3-V-r-3 says coldwetn-0-s-e died. l-o-l."

If you are not an infil on that type of apex, not even plat but gold you are in huge trouble. Had a gold game yesterday, a very competent team, no infils we cruised until extraction, I think one person went down in one of the earlier waves. No one made it through to extraction.

Thanks...very brave first platinum attempt! Congrats! I find outlaw the fastest faction to beat. Honestly, I predicted a wipe as we did have one pug with us. they ended up being very good though.

We did it with three Avengers and a Huntress. I got melted in the first round so I played pretty conservative the rest of the game. This and losing two people early on in wave 5 made for a long run, but wave 7 was a relaxing tour of map jumping from ammo crate to crate.

Just finished with Avenger, Huntress, Asari Adept and Human Vanguard (me). Under-performed a bit Had slightly laggy connection so died more than planned, few silly decisions aswell. So stealth classes had to carry few waves. However agrro on two hack mission worked perfectly. Probably two smoothest hacks ever. Good team, still fun

My heart sank a little when wave 6 hack appeared, but it went very well. Lucky it was on sandstorm as I think it is the easiest map to kite enemies due to it being 3-tiers in height. It was alot of fun!

On the upside we finally found a way to talk with one of our teammates who doesn't have a mic, using Discords text-to-voice. "3-Y-3-V-r-3 says coldwetn-0-s-e died. l-o-l." I'm proud that we chose to do this apex mission the hard way: it was a team of angara avenger, human sentinel, turian soldier and angara insurgent. Yes, only ONE stealth kit for the objective rounds. Wave one was very easy with this team setup as we just camped in a room then blocked the entrances with barricade/trip mines. Starting from wave 2 ascendants and berserkers ganged up to troll us with their staggering bubble attacks/flak cannon spam. The three of us couldn't hold the line, so we all scattered into different directions trying our best not to die while angara avenger rushed to finish the objectives as fast as possible. We lucked out and got retrieval/uploads/retrieval if I remember correctly. Wave 4 uploads angara avenger cloaked on one zone and the rest of us huddled together nervously on another, fearing for our lives as we heard enemies approaching. We survived uploading the zone then didn't waste a second to get out, with insurgent screaming at the top of his lungs: "Ammunition please!" Anytime when angara avenger was not nearby to protect us with his cloak, it was not a battle, more like a slaughter. We ran and ran and ran, still couldn't avoid the inevitable fate of death. Every wave from 2 to 6 at least two people would went down and angara avenger even had to clutch a wave or two. I myself only survived wave 1, wave 6 and extraction. I think it was wave 5 where I died very early in the beginning. It was frustrating watching teammates struggle in spectator mode, but at least this time I could use my monotonous robotic voice to lament my own death and cheer you on. The end result? Our amazing angara avenger scored over 50k, while the rest of us got less than 20k each. It turned out that we were, in the end, only 3 moving decoys for the avenger to carry. I hope he didn't hurt his back after the 45-minute long game...

Tried it once and 3 teammates died early Wave 3, leaving me with what seemed like 50 enemies to kill. Didn't bother (plus I'm shy with an audience). Might try my luck again?

Tried it twice this morning. First one went very smoothly, and I didn't die once (Avenger for the win).
The second one I got killed on Wave 5 by what I think was a Blaze Hydra (it happened so fast, as I was popping out of cover to shoot when I got downed). Fortunately, the remaining Asari Huntress clutched the rest of the wave. Sadly, we got Hack on Wave 6, and an Ascendant was camping the objective at the start of the wave. Try as we might, we couldn't get him (nor his friends to move), and the timer ran out.
Selected the mission for a third time, but the host was a Level 1 APEX 0 Human Soldier. I did not stay very long in that lobby.

It's an odd one this one. It can go over very smoothly, but if people start dying all of a sudden it's almost certainly going to be a wipe (yeah I'm not that great at soloing, even when lolvengering)... This is me having to solo Platinum:
