The grendel missions deactivate mods?

[Revalopod]

All warframe mods, weapon mods, pet mods, any mods and stances aren't working

[[BAD]Tan]

yes but augment work tho

[Revalopod]

is this a glitch because without mods i can barely do any damage and just die instantly

[Sceles]

It's intended, they're supposed to be challenging.

oh ok, I was doing it solo as nekros, probably not best frame for it

[Ifeanyi]

I used Hildryn for all 3

Wisp is pretty great for this honestly.

Also there seems to be a bug where Dijin will respawn with mods working sometimes.

What frames could work for that good? Maybe Inaros?

I played with a friend, and Nidus and Limbo worked well for the defense. I had the Larva augment on and it wasn't disabled, so that was super helpful.
The excavation one was total ♥♥♥♥♥ though, Limbo was useful but I was really struggling to remain useful due to running out of energy. Since it's not about killing though ( besides those Nullifiers ), a CC frame probably would've been a good choice for me to use

I use Inaros and he never comes close to dying so he's good, but a Nidus on our team got powerful enough the he was killing everything in 1 hit with his virulence

Augment still work, me and my buddies did all of them in one go with a combination of Frost, Rhino, and Wisp. Pretty decent crowd control and support options, only thing we really had to keep an eye on was the Nullifiers getting rid of my Frost bubbles but that was about it. Was running the Chill globe augment so when they got in the bubble they froze.

Why the fudge... That's a terrible idea for making it "Difficult". What levels do the enemies get to?

Start around thirtyish, but Excavation needs 800 Cryotic, Survival is for 20 minutes, and defense is for 15 waves. Near the end we were dealing with level fifty guys. Was intense as hell.

They start around 40, and they scale slower than normal, reaching around 50 or low 60s at most.
They're Corpus, so at least they don't have armor.

I personally like this way of creating difficulty, especially here because it meant that DE is at least capable of realizing just how stupidly powerful we can get through modding, and that they're capable of trying to force people to play without it. Which is, in my opinion, necessary in order to create some versions of difficulty that don't necessarily rely on enemy scaling that makes them one shot you or take a thousand of your hits that already do millions of damage.
If you normalize the playing field, you're able to more precisely finetune the difficulty, and I think they should do that more often, but for different situations. Like, cough, stealth only missions that don't let you use abilities or weapons, cough.

Look, I can see why people would like that. And I agree it's a good thing they're trying to make it more difficult. It just ticks me off that my build is going to be utterly useless when getting this guy, cause I'm not exactly the most competent player on the face of the earth. Do Arcanes work at least? Maybe I can cheese out some extra damage with Exodia Contagion.

I think the could at least make it able to go in random groups like in other missions so we don't have to make a whole squad before starting the missions.
