Arelex, what build were you running in this balcony video that you're only carrying 7 grenades? And is that typical missile usage by a balcony player? I haven't ran the balcony yet, and still need a lot of more practice before I'd attempt it, but I'm curious.
If you check out the opening thread of the post AreleX has his build detailed there. He has two grenades from each of the grenade trees and another one from the N7 Demolisher passive giving 5 base, he's then running warfighter package to get an extra 2 for a total of 7. As you're sitting in the supply pylon for a lot of the run you won't run short of grenades so you don't need the grenade gear, the extra weapon damage from warfighter is far more useful. With regard to the missile usage, assuming you mean the rockets on wave 2, then the answer is yes. Usually on wave 2 both Atlas will spawn in the hallway, if they do then run the wave as in the video. If the spawn is spilt then just take them down with weapons like wave 1. Roll like AreleX in the vid and you'll be golden

He may also be talking about later waves where AreleX forced the Nook spawn which is not all that common. It was something I came up with to try and save missiles for players running hallway and basement if they are running low, but we had a couple of strange spawns as well that caused AreleX to use more than he wanted to.
We would like to go into wave 10 with at least 1 missile between every player (would help a lot for targets or if we need to hold a hack). Not sure if it really helps out our times too much to force the Nook spawn, but if we get a targets objective early it will help spare a missile or 2 for the basement/hallway players.

Yup, I started doing great, some real ninja stuff and then I remembered I was on the easiest difficulty
On the plus side the third episode of Walking Dead is up on the marketplace!

A Lil late to the party live nice job but there is strategies and names but well done on the map and your welcome to make your own strategy and see if it's better also there is a spawn point in the room you call camp room
Yeah, also forgot to put in one for the attic.
My idea was having players start in those positions: one in the dark corner, one near the ammo box between the middle room and the camp room, one near the ammo box in front of the backyard and the last one in the camp room.
Start of the wave: dark corner moves towards the LZ to check if it's clear, then moves near the attic and helps clearing the middle room, with the player that started between the camp room and the middle room. The player in the camp room and the one outside clear the hallway and the backyard, eventually helped by the player that started in the dark corner.

We have names for a number of these places, probably not that widely known as glacier with fewer speedruns being run on white. We generally refer to the middle room as the side room, the backyard as end of street, the catwalks just behind end of street, the hallway as side street, the camp room as hack room or room of shame, the street is the area between side street and hack room, the ladder is just below where you put the attic and then back corner is the ammo dump just above where you put dark corner. We didn't have a name for dark corner yet I like it. Nice map!

No worries. We finished the run ok so you won't need to bend space time to join us in the past when you can reconnect.

That was a fail rage missile followed by another super rage missile. Not sure if we even needed them! Good games guys, nice to meet you in game Tatty and Bob!

Not judging at all, just saying with only 2 missiles we made a full extraction on Vancouver/Cerberus/Gold using only Predators with 3 people in the same time it takes a PUG to finish a game with a good player carrying the team. Wish my Paladin buddy had still been there so I wasn't the only one that couldn't go invisible though, I had to keep spamming ED to stay alive.
