New Apex mission. This is ultimate trolling. Lots of dogs and Berserkers. Flat ground everywhere.
And then there's my personal experience. Choosing Asari Adept, host is a bit laggy, 3 other players are stealth class. h inf, h inf, anAv. - (Killa fault)
Should have made a drinking game every time I died. Everyone died a lot, but me...? Instant moment I just take a turn on corner I get hydras rockets to my face. Fkrs tracking me through walls. And the lag gives no chance to dodge. Berserkers and dogs chasing all the time. Felt paranoid. Never really been scared in this game, but this time had to look behind my shoulder non- stop.
No hack or upload. Even delivered one package myself. Mission succesful. Lots of "fun".
Anyone else had great experience here?

I vowed to never do another glass jaw platinum last week, but I caved and tried it again tonight. Not nearly as rage inducing. The dogs are the problem... not berserkers. To be honest I laugh my ass off when I or teammates got insta-killed by charging zerkers. I actually vote that berserkers get a 1000% buff to melee permanently and 1000% nerf to their flak spam.

I used Turian havoc on this mission, along with a Turian soldier, an angara avenger and a h infiltrator. On non objective waves we basically camped at the farmer's camping spot, throwing grenades, stickies, flaks at enemies at a distance... I just hover -> turbo charge -> shoot -> flak cannon -> shoot -> more flaks. Dogs and berserkers on the ground could only bark at me in vain before dying.

Dogs and berserkers on the ground could only bark at me in vain before dying. I wish more people realized how effective that is to counter dogs. Aerial combat training helps but all characters can do it. Just don't stay up there too long because there's always an observer somewhere on the map ready to laser your exposed ass. Zerkers still flak you, but they look so sad while doing it. I almost feel sorry for them.

I took hydra's missiles directly in the face and only lost half of my health... Berserkers I just flak back at them and watch their armor dwindle to non existence. Having a turian soldier to share aggro definitely helped a lot. I used to be in a platinum pug with 3 other infiltrators... For a moment there were like 7 or 8 observers all shooting at me together. I was immediately toasted and fell off the sky

If you can't deal with dogs before they reach you, the problem is with you. You don't deserve to play platinum. Maybe stop playing stealth kits and hiding from enemies like a pussy and be a real man and use the Salarian Architect. Me and my buddies who have spent over 1000 hours in the game each just did it in under 10 minutes. Just get your Hurricane Siphon MMD with the MF-only mods and kill enemies before they kill you. so easy. Just kill, or be killed. Literally anyone can do it. Oh, you didn't credit glitch the fuck out of the game when you had the chance? Too bad, stay out of Platinum then and go back to bronze until you get good.

Anyone else had great experience here? Any immobilisation obviously works nicely with Glass Jaw missions. Think crowd control: Barricade with electric evo, Cryo Beam with Snap Freeze evo, Snap Freeze itself (if you have the Batcrapper) and - of course - Flak Cannon with the stun evo...

Yup, PUGged it with the TSol, off-host. It was an absolute rage fest. I was down to 2 medigels by Wave 2. The ultimate buttfuck city came on Wave 6 targets. Blaze Hydra camped in one of the rooms, surrounded by the Krogan triplets and dogs. Got stuck in the doorway surrounded by nothing, but fucking dogs. I really wanted to just kick somebody by extraction wave. Now they just have to pair it with "Only One Life to Live" and the circle can come to an end!

The game trolled me all 4 attempts I PUG'd it.
#1 - Wave 6 hack dead center platform. Berserker and a blaze hydra sat in there the ENTIRE time and never left the invisible players. Couldn't get their aggro, even when all 4 players left the center, they literally stayed there.
#2 - Wave 4 upload, an Anointed was glitched in a wall IN THE ZONE!!!!!! Powers & guns couldn't shoot him. Other 2 uploads weren't an issue, but he was unkillable with the powers we had and wouldn't let the hack proceed.
#3 - Wave 6 upload, dead center platform. Same issue, this time the Ascendant would not leave. 1 zone went quick, second zone was an issue. Third zone just didn't have enough time to pull aggro or kill enemies.
#4 - Wave 6 hack interior. 1 PUG decided to kill the 2 Berserkers I pulled all the way to extraction, away from the hack. Sure enough, they respawned at the hack. When they were with me in extraction, the hack was progressing. As soon as they were dead, the bar was never blue again.

I guess I will have to learn how to fight and hover. Literally and honestly in all the games i have every played on all levels (cep plat which i have not played) I think I've seen about 3 guys every that actually hover fought most of the game. no one does it.

It's the only way I face them whatever the difficulty setting, I absolutely hate getting staggered. You don't have to hover at the top of your jump, just hover immediately after so you're low to the ground.

On console it's hard to hold down LT (hover) and then use a power on LB, or the LB+RB power.

Seriously, though, my group tried this at the end of the night and did really well until we got uploads. Two went down really well, but the infiltrators could not get a break in the upload on the middle platform of the map; many enemies goes through there and sometimes stops there for no good reason. Plus, if you tried to jump up there, you were immediately hit by a berserker. Also, if you were up there and too close to the edge, a berserker could immediately jump up and hit you, so you couldn't even block the entrances to the upload.

Makes perfect sense, I've just never seen hardly anyone hover at all in the many games i've played. I am going to start practicing to hover more.

kettchen... boo... I'm on xbox1. I do notice that the powers don't activate very well when hovering and shooting. It's like it gets input overload or something. Every now and then I have to stop shooting to use flak or turbocharge when using the havoc. On a side note, I wish the 5b perc would change the ground pound animation to the old havoc strike animation in me3. I tried an all melee build on her using only the jump melee. I was so disappointed.

Went into this apex with a pug group. I played the Batarian. Everyone else? Infiltrators. Two Avengers, one Salarian. I got a lot of attention to say the least. We had two Uploads and a device objective. I had to count on the Avengers to cloak me while I was in the uploads with them. Berserkers were definitely a pain during the whole thing. We made it out though.

1st attempt: PUG group that we farmed Magma before. Wave 4 Upload with 1 area on THE platform = fail. 2nd attempt: PUG game. Boss/Devices/Retrieval. Under 24 minute game. Personal record - Gold revive medal on wave 3. Went down couple times myself. Why others didn't pick a character with Second Chance Perk, idk. Huntress FTW.
