Anyone had one of those days....
Have been playing quite a bit again recently and jumped on a few nights ago to do the last Legendary for my 3rd Agent and then maybe something else.
Completed WarrenGate Legendary although it was a bit of a chore as the random team I was in were a little light on punch but that is fine. Things seemed a bit laggy and getting revived and going down before getting any Agent control was a bit frustrating but #JustDivisionThings.
I then switched to my fav TA Agent and decided to try out a MDR I transferred from another one of my Agents and try running Napalm Legendary to see how it played.
Well my TA build is good for SP (around 380K with the 30% before Talented is prop'd on my gun) but is light on firepower and around 280k.
We played through until we got to the agents. After killing the first two, one of the other players was furiously typing that we all had to go to the lift level floor. I'm thinking 'huh', two agents to go and one with healing station ability on the bottom floor with multiple directions they and the mobs can attack from and little cover that means we will be bunched up. After hanging around upstairs but not being able to make much of a dent on the mobs (low firepower alone) I went down and, yep, we wiped out as the agents ran around in their healing station area shooting and sticky bombing whilst mobs flanked up.
We respawned and they all did the same thing again !!. Same result. Probably a good 1.5 --> 2 hours wasted there.
I had the same with another group on another day but one of the group stayed on to with me whilst the chat was screaming about coming down. We ignored it, managed to kill the 3rd agent and then went down and we all completed the mission.
Seem to be a lot of new players around at the moment. Legendary with randoms now seems to be a lot more challenging.
Needless to say, I have upped my DPS a bit now.
A quick example of this was last night with a group which seemed to be 2 snipers, me and someone else I guess was hybrid. Playing legendary Napalm, we get to the long area (respawn point) and somehow manage to beet the first part, although I seemed to be getting a lot of aggro enven on my TA build which was a bit of a warning.
For the second part I run to the front of the scaffold overlooking the bad guys spawns just to miss the shotgunners. I manage to take down one bad guy and then look around to see I am on my own apart from 6 shotgunners all charging me. Oh happy days. After a couple of wipes and one persons rage quit we still managed to complete.
I do like the challenge but there seems to be a big lack of conscientious about how to do each stage now where it used to be there with other randoms. Steam sale recently maybe....
Anyway, anyone else been having 'one of those days.' in the Division ?.
