Archon Hunt Spy Mission Ruins the Game

[Stoic_Fish]

I love this game, and I love that their is netracell missions that are very hard, designed for those who take the time to get to rank 5 and then plan ahead with whats available, hard content is fun. But... why is the hardest content, a stupid spy mission... losing over and over and over and over and over because other people just keep purging the data is unbearable and makes me want to just turn the game off every time. I hate it so much, please just remove the archon spy mission and do us all a favor. please please please!

Go in solo with loki and Perspicacity on a slot, easy spy.

[Belzera]

Solo with Loki,
Solo with Wu Kong,
Solo with Ivara,
heck solo with Operator
or Squad up with Friends

[neock]

in genral... dont expect pubs to be good at spy missions. run them solo or with friends in invite only

[Razer]

Why are you playing this coop when it is optional? You're doing this to yourself. There's nothing wrong with the mission. Loki with Perspicacity has been mentioned before. EZ.

You queuing for spy missions in pubby?
What next, sneak through a military compound with your pet elephant?

I think it's one of the easiest since you don't need a strong Warframe or weapon to do them, just literal skill at solving the vault and minigame. And an upgraded Parazon. (recommended)

But the main issue is publics, yeah like others have mentioned. Because it relies on you trusting the randoms to actually be good enough because if one of them (or you) mess up: everyone fails. Sometimes you get lucky and everyone is able to easily solo their vault and sometimes you get people who fail almost immediately.

Or a hacking moa. Give one to Ivara along with Protea's Dispensary, and sleepwalk through any spy mission. Or get one of those Sahasa kubrows that digs up energy orbs, set him up with Elusive Posture, and use the helminth's Perspicacity to hack things.

True, I've done that sometimes as well but companions aren't always reliable and it's not a good habit to get used to things being done for you automatically.

Archon Spy is probably the easiest and fastest mission there is, just bring one of the multitude of things that trivialize Spy or simply do it as you normally would.

You can freeze the alarm for about 30 seconds with Liset Air Support.
If there's no map-wide alarms, it will work on datavault alarm no matter the distance. Sometimes those 30 seconds is enough for randos to salvage situation.

[Necrosis]

Play loki
Full duration
go invis
use hack helminth while invis
GG
♥♥♥♥♥ not hard, you're just not doing what the game has told you to do, which is prepare for missions properly and take the tools into situations they are designed for. you can get loki before even finishing half the star chart and all the mods to make your duration high enough to work are also given out EASILY by the time you would even be THINKING about doing a sortie or archon hunt.

Spy.. in PUBLIC?
This better be an april fools joke.

[xPEDx]

Isnt an Archon hunt a harder kind ? (ive not done any)

[TheMetalCorpser]

OP if you're that determined to do spy with others just do one run with them. If randos mess it up just do the next run solo. People above gave a good list of what frames to use, helminth ability to use, and even a companion to run.

I believe you only have 30 seconds when an alarm is triggered in the vaults but that's about it when compared to normal spy missions.
