I would like to add the Architect in as an optional for ALL difficulties.
Needs to have fulfilled to spawn:
1. < 90s each round for completion. (Can change thi 90s to something more appropriate, but I feel 90 is suitable)
2. Gold (3 star) completion for each objective wave.
Then once you have done that...
3. Extraction Wave remains 2 minutes.
4. No normal spawns during Extraction Wave.
5. Architect spawns right on top of the Extraction Zone (or close enough to it that you can't just camp there and wait out the timer).
6. Architect spawns normal Remnant mobs only as per SP.
7. Goal 1. Do enough damage without dying to the Architect and it's spawns to get it to "move" from the Extraction Zone so you can extract. (Quite an accomplishment)
8. Goal 2. Optional. Kill the Architect. (Yeah, those so called A/S Class players in teams will still fail to do this one on plat.
)
Reward:
9. Getting Architect and extracting, gives +15% per difficulty to Rewards. So 15% Bronze, 30% Silver, 45% Gold, 60% Platinum.
10. Killing the Architect and extracting, gives +25% per difficulty to Rewards on top of the above: So 25% Bronze (40% total), 50% (80% total) on Silver, 75% (120% total) on Gold, and 100% (160% total) on Platinum.
This way, a few things are solved:
A. Difficulty and Accomplishment: Those who desire more difficulty can work to their hearts content in trying to take down the Architect on Plat, whilst everyone else can experience it too on a lower difficulty if they desire (or are good enough to do so).
B. It gives an indicator when the group is good to get the Architect to spawn in the first place.
C. Doesn't need to artificially ramp up difficulty for specific kits and classes only such as with Platinum Hacks/Uploads.
That's my thoughts on adding the Architect anyway.
