DE needs to chill with SPY mission in ARCHON HUNT

[petrichor]

Especially in every week, every week i notice some players will go AFK, i notice EVERY Wukong players "slowed down" a lot with their cloud walker in this specific mission but not in every mission, in every mission they are fast and hungry for their slam attack, but in SPY ARCHON HUNT? They are chimping around like an 1d1 0t.

I tried my best to clear it as careful as i can be, i don't like spy mission too, today i already failed 6 times in a row because every week DE needs to give us their beloved SPY mission in high level threat mission, before you vanilla template guys saying "skill issue", yes i have a skill issue with SPY mission in high level, SPY is my least type of mission i like, i don't enjoy playing SPY mission. I don't want to memorize every patterns in every planets i visit.

"Yeah but you have 700h+ and still can't do spy mission like cmon?". There's a reason why some people dislike Eidolon Hunt, there's a reason people don't play K-Drive, there's a reason why people dislike doing this and that, because the gameplay of those missions it is not FUN for them.

Equip the dropship item to pause timers. Use the gear associated with it when someone triggers an alarm and the subsequent countdown starts.

Personally I tend to try it once with randos and if they mess it up I solo the spy mission then go back to public.

Also Ivara with Infiltrate makes Spy vaults a breeze.

Untraceable Parazon mod, completely trivializes those missions on any frame.

[RubiiX]

Do it solo and use Perspicacity from the helminth if you are having issues hacking under pressure. You can set off every single alarm and still hack the terminal in time lol

Don't put this on your squad, you did this to you. You made the poor decisions that lead to this outcome, and it will keep happening because you and so many other refuse to do the basic preparations for missions like this. You're mad that your teammates weren't completing the mission for you? Did you even take a frame that's good for spy missions? If you don't want to learn the paths through the vaults that's the minimum amount of effort you could have done. You decided to do the missions with other people so you don't have a leg to stand on that it failed and you had to run it 6 times when you could have run it multiple times solo during that.

You don't have a Wukong, Ivara, Loki, Octavia, even a Rhino to Iron Skin up and charge through the lasers? There are so many ways to get through spy missions with almost no effort yet what, you couldn't be bothered to switch loadouts? Do you even use loadouts? Do you expect to never have to run a spy, or rescue, or anything beyond mindless slaughter again?

Stop making things harder on yourself just to have a reason to ♥♥♥♥♥ in the forums. At least do the bare minimum for godsake.

Lol ragnarok icon

I had similar experience yesterday too. Failed 5 times because randoms triggered alarms early on.

I still run public matches until my patients run out because 90% of the times players know what they are doing and misision is finished faster than in Solo.
Then there are those rare moments where failure happens +3 times and I go Solo

Equip Frog with Prowl augment to cheese easly

[crimsonspartan1]

Always solo the spy missions when it comes to stuff like Sorties and Archon Hunts. You'll be able to finish it while retaining your sanity instead of failing the mission or going insane due to the god awful pubs that somehow don't know how to play spy missions.

I always do solo spy mission archon hunt , just pick wukong then add auto-hack helminth, ez done. I only play with team if it's defense / interception mission and the boss is quite easy with a few slam hits + tornado from Zephyr = dead, if lucky some games only 1-shot archon killed.

I hate the kind of players you described playing with, props for actually trying. I'm heavily biased on this subject because I love stealth games, but I think you should learn to do all the vaults solo.

This game only has so much unique content, so you may as well give it an earnest try and try to figure them out blind. Once you figure them out once, they become trivial to repeat (especially with Wukong or anyone with invisibility). If it's too hard and you're frustrated, go ahead and look it up.

People will spend hundreds of hours farming, looking up all the meta weapon, frame, pet, amp, focus setups for that LEVEL CAP PWNAGE and then draw the line at solving these easy puzzles. It's a shame because stuff like Lua spy was really cool to me. Anyone who farmed a non-Prime Ivara will know that Spy is really easy once you know what to do.

If you wanna be like the noobs you complained about and remain helpless at Spy, go for it. Alternatively, you can invest a tiny bit in your own ability to complete them.

I agree with this and wanted to flame even harder tbh, but I think it'd be better if you get good and ascend from the huge pool of Spy noobs.

[Fana]

I have Ivara so spy is easy!

[PhellAsleep]

Now I want an entire hunt with nothing but spy missions.

Limited pulses like Netracells that get consumed on a Spy completion/failure, or a Technocyte Spy to get fast murmur progress :^)

[Tasha Vulpine]

Agreed, there is no reason to have them nearly every week
