In Response To: Re: Firefight Solo Guide: Crater (SonofMacPhisto) : Generally speaking, do you have any thoughts regarding the difficulty levels? : Would you suggest these strategies for all of them, or make any kind of : tweaks depending on the setting? :...On Crater I don't : think this is always possible, so what do you think about starting the : wave in that underneath area where the rocket launcher spawns? On Alpha : Site, I use the PP/Rocket Launcher combo as the Chieftains approach, and : then grab whatever they dropped to deal with the rest... : Regarding the SMG, I wouldn't underestimate it for drones even when Tilt is : on. You can take out the non-shielded ones just as quickly, therefore : taking their guns out of the fight. For the shielded guys, you'll need to : still be careful and stick to your ideas. If I'm mano a bugger-o however, : I like to wait for them to get close to deliver a melee attack. : The final thing I would add, general speaking to any solo Firefight strategy, : is utilizing the sniper rifle early on. Concerning difficulties I was trying to decide whether to add specific ideas for them, but I ended up narrowing it down to ones that I thought applied to all. These work very well on Normal and Heroic and to be honest...I don't like Legendary much on Crater. It could be that this doesn't work on Legendary and that's why I don't like it, not sure. That's a good idea about staying in the Rocket room. I would be worried about being grenade spammed because you are kind of trapped but I might try it. It would make it easier to secure the Rockets and not have to just dash over there at some point. With the SMG I do actually use it for the Drones later if I have to, I just prefer the Plasma Rifle. Now that I think about it the SMG does still work well, I just avoid it. The only reason I don't get the Sniper is because of how far away it is. It definably saves ammo early on but specifically on Crater I just avoid it. Thanks for the feedback and ideas. I think I will try some of those out. Oh and to Wu: Much appreciated for the clean up. I'm not too good with aesthetics.
