I got to wave 20+ normal siege and even there the enemies were almost invincible they were so tanky.

Its funny how majoris stop dying to melta bomb. Not even talking about extremis.

>>568457202
The scaling they've implemented is beyond retarded. I don't understand why they didn't just cap the fucking mode to 30 waves if the game can't handle more without breaking.

>>568457202
I got to wave 23 hard siege yesterday, and only then did enemies become unnecessarily tanky. Even then, we wasted something like one full timer rotation on wave 20 because the vortex beast is BS and voltus refused to engage it in combat.

Techmarine's servogun does jackshit against the Helbrutes.

Is Disruption the fastest Absolute operation?

You can solo it with custom modifiers

Tbh i don't see a problem with that
>>
>>568465170
I just don't like prolonged targeted grind. If unlocking a visual for my character feels like a job- it's not fun anymore.
>>
>>568464038
Is everyone gonna do every absolute grind for every class though?

>all sniper gets are a couple antennae
>all BW gets are iron halos
Heavy gets capes, but heavy sucks imo and I'm never gonna play him after those 50 absolutes.
You could say they might get more shit when they add grind robes in the next update, but they're probably not tracking the progress for those yet.
>>
Died again at the final section when we had to fight four helbrutes back to back.
The plasma cannons are the worst fucking part about fighting helbrutes, holy shit. Anytime it does a charged shot I know a teammate is going to die or lose 90% of their health.
>>
>>568465170
if all absolute are like this it would probably not feel that bad but most absolute are not like this
>>
Also the guy who said you can block uncharged plasma shots from the helbrute with armored advance is a fucking liar.
>>
>>568466746
>pop Iron Halo for uncharged shot
>it pierce through
Maybe non modified Brutes would not pack enough punch to pierce it
>>
this weekly basically just comes down to
>do you have two people on your team who can solo a hellbrute without taking health damage?
>yes
>you win
>no
>you are the last man standing and are going to get tag teamed unfairly until you are dead
there might be a way to cheese it by getting the terminus spawn at the midway point with the dropdown to the dreadnought and just running past them, though, but that's RNG and requires non-braindead teammates
I've had people in the past shout at me to stop running because you can't progress till terminus are dead, despite it working on that dropdown door just fine, fucking retards
>>
How the fuck are you supposed to handle group of spawns? Can't see jack shit.
>>
>>568467257
Don't forget
>are you queued with a class that can disengage from a helbrute and go deal with that terminator that just spawned when the boss hit 50% hp?
Leaving after you die to let a boss rez someone is impractical here too since the helbrutes are going to stunlock them from ever reviving anyone.

Pay attention for just when one identifiable blob near you swings so you can perfect block/parry and make space.

And you better get lucky you had to go through another set of these fuckers earlier or you are 100% guarantee to get them in the last area
>>
>>568467257
>there might be a way to cheese it by getting the terminus spawn at the midway point with the dropdown to the dreadnought and just running past them
I did this. Both my teammates went down in the walkways before the dreadnought and I sprinted all the way to Valtus. Valtus killed one while I finished another off.
It's opening the door to Valtus that's the tough part because if you're delayed by a couple seconds then it's only a matter of time when the Helbrutes decide to do overlapping AOE unblockables in that little piece of land with the gate closed.
Absolutely valid strategy if your teammates know about this but probably not.

I use pic related with the heroic/block axe but also works the the power sword.
You can cancel out of any attack with the jet pack dodge and once you get the perfect dodge timing down you are pretty much invincible with infinite jet pack charges.
As an alternative to smiting angel you can use furious strikes if you like the jet pack dodge attack.
>>
>>568472328
Focus on slamming your hammer into the ground as much as possible, and gunstrikes, they are your lifeline
>>
>>568470331
Follow-up question:

How do I level up in any appreciable amount of time
>>
>>568473968
If you're good or not a complete liability then doing Absolute missions can get you maxed out pretty quick.
>>
>>568473968
That's the neat part.
It's customary to queue inferno over and over again
