Basically, this is a sadistic challenge a friend of mine came up with. He doesn't play anymore, but still likes to talk about the multiplayer from time-to-time. This is what he suggested to me:

Conditions:
Husk Mode (only Husks and 15 Brutes on all waves except the Extraction wave. For Extraction, it's 10 Banshees and Brutes)
Platinum level
Firebase Condor
No console commands

Characters:
Drell Adept with Acolyte/Scorpion and any SMG
Drell Vanguard with Venom
Drell Assassin with Raider/Claymore/Spitfire

How would you go about this challenge with your team. Especially, without a fourth player present? I am forseeing lots issues with Grenades, frankly. And the Husks are infinite. Too much ways to get swarmed and destroyed.

Anyone feeling up for this? If so, sign up here.

Haha, yeah. But that would be one of the conditions, no cheats/console commands whatsoever. So, I'm afraid that problem will stick.

When all hope is lost, you melee to the death and hope for free husk revives.

Maybe, we should all equip the Medigel Transmitter?

Go for Glacier. It works better. Personally, I would like to use Pull in Husk Mode.

Sadly, the conditions are set. However, if I could follow your advice, I would switch to Glacier...maybe, I would even go with the Hazard version of said map.

Well, then hope that the person who has med-transmitter starts to bleed out in the middle of the map. Maybe that 30 meters can reach everywhere.

What do you mean, the husks are infinite... Do you need to kill the brutes or what?

[Dalakaar]

Sounds fun, if I wasn't at work I'd be tempted.

 

Grenades shouldn't be too too much of a problem if everyone's using their powers. All the kits seem to have viable AoE weapon options.

Means there's no real cap on the Husks, so they can spawn until the wavebudget is depleted. Brutes sure deplete the wavebudget faster, but it might be wise to avoid them as much as possible. If you get staggered by them, you're done.

Cryo ammo IV. If you can freeze the ones immediately in front of you the others pile up behind them, helpless. Also medigel transmitter.

Cryo Ammo with Invasive Scan should slow down most everything to make it a little easier to kill. Should be able to chain stagger husks also with the scorpion. Might be able to get the Recon mine spam more still with duration infiltrator as well

Husk Mode is the MAIN reason I am so jelly of PC players..that and you get to play the Unreleased maps   That Alliance base looked amazing.  I am dying to try an On Host Slayer specd Charge and Disruptor for radius against 100 Husks..would make the Reaper mastery happen so much faster.

[TheNightSlasher]

Q: Will there be cerberus enemies in the mod, particularly atlases and phantoms?

 

I know you said only husks and brutes in the OP, but I still wanted to confirm. If they are not present, then I won't mind giving it a try.

God no. They would tear us apart. Aside from the Banshees, there are no long-range attacks coming our way. It's just lots and lots of Husks with the occasional Brute here and there.

Everything is fine and dandy, until one of gets hit a couple of times. If the team is out of sync, the Husks will make short work of the Drell. The map is a ******, too, with its limited nades.

Yeah, it's great fun. The Slayer is actually one of the better kits to combat unlimited amounts of Husks.

[RealKobeBean]

But, guys...how about a sound strategy for this challenge? What's a good plan of attack? Would you camp? If so, where? Or would you move around as much as possible? Condor can be a genuine ****** for this. Since there is no cap om the Husks, you can run out of space even on a map like Condor.

[NuclearTech76]

Hell guys you could probably max pull out with DOT and clear a lot out by spamming pull. 

[Shinobu]

No camping.

 

I'd be up for trying it.

[Darth Volus]

I'm up for it

 

Or I'm down... 

 

 

I dunno, eitherway, I would like to play this

Geth Scanner + DOT Pull = /Challenge
