No worries. Can you let me know my official total time so I can decide whether or not it's worth trying to make it?
217m 11s total. So it would need 42 mins cut over the 7 challenges :s 6 mins per challenge.

I just realized how truly difficult those time goals actually are. Not cheesy-enough. I may need to do something about that...
Full on scrubfest with much rubberband and a load of other lag issues all in the name of science.

Lancer does have a lot of recoil. I increased my mouse sensitivity setting to 30 for this one (usually I have it set to 20). And still you can tell when I have to reset the mouse position in the vid.

Did u do some training to get used to the new setting or the first 2 waves were enough to warm-up ?
And did u choose not to use hard cover for dealing with the recoil ?

I had awful connection delays this time, which happend never before when playing with Clusum. It was playable yet. We tried tier 3 afterwards, but my connection went to unplayable then. Felt like I had a delay of 2 seconds. When I tried to 1on1 on Phantoms, the game suddenly told me, that I´m dead. ![]()
Edit: Hopefully my connection problem was only for today.
Yeah, I tried that N1.III: Cyone Must No Fall or something like that, and my game decided to freeze as a stupid Scion fired his cannon. Peasetree, of course(it was my first match, but Collectors don't care), and I was doin' so well aside from wasting 4 rockets on the first objective wave. I think I should attempt this challenge on PC instead, but I aim a bit better on controller than on mouse for some reason.

The training was the multiple attempts you didn't see. I only did 1 attempt that wasn't with that setting.
It also helped that I have been spending a lot of time in DAI since March, so I had already lost a lot of what little bit of aiming memory I had to begin with.
Using RHA is usually better than cover because you can potentially avoid getting hit at all. I used it a couple times throughout the attempts though.

By the Goddess, yes, please! If you could also include the build, that'd be awesome.

I will upload it sometime tomorrow, I added the build to the original post though.
I've always been not clear on what exactly Stasis Strength (4b) does. Does it increase the amount of health damage you can do before the victim breaks out of stasis? Or does it increase the actual damage you do (to protection and/or to health)?
If it's the former, it might not be that great, since the base amount of health damage you can do before stasis breaks is quite low (I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but something like 150 or so).

Yeah, but i did a challenge with exclusum and the lancer, and was surprised how hard cover was efficient. But it s clearly not the same situation: one stunlock was not that much of a risk.
Amazing gameplay capn ! Some really impressive awarness at some points like wave 8 where u cut your kiting from the corridor to the far bottom between two primes, one being at the control room entrance and one on your way to the LZ. Nice control and cool nerves
( and a bit of luck, as needed for this)

yeah, you go from 150 health damage to 225 to break stasis with this fourth evo. Make the difference with WAIV arc pistol HS on stased gold phantoms
Did a solo on 360, just to even things out. I'll probably do a few more too.

Guess it's about time I took the training wheels off ![]()
^ Agreed. They are training wheels. Besides. Surround sound setup (for me it's a Turtle Beach headset) helps enough anyway. To the point that when my rechargeable batteries die mid game without any more charged ones left, I totally feel gimped and panic.
