Azure Weald small explosive bugs suck

[Anatolius]

nuff said, little ♥♥♥♥♥ are the biggest contributors to dive fails, they're fast, deal considerable damage, and you can't even reliably dodge them like the normal explosive bugs

sidenote - what's with the difficulty spike in H3, H2 is like a walk in the park, and H3 is difficult even if i tryhard, not go for any upgrade minerals and such?!?

[Perplex]

Yea, they are too fast.

[☹]

Yeah, they're definitely a pain in one place.
You can actually dodge them. You have to catch the timing when they're really close, and then they explode without taking damage. But it's better to just run away from them and deal more damage while you're running.

And a quick trick. Try to dig tunnels, so that on the waves they run to a narrow place and explode there.

If u think h2 to h3 is bad try h3 to h4
Im almost maxed and i cant do H4 normally even in CC lol

[O So Creamy Donut]

i hacked and made them very slow. idgaf.

I think at the very least, they should be extremely fragile.

My words exactly.

Yes, dodging them is a thing, and yes - it's not a very reliable thing.
Digging tunnel would work if you have +mining speed, otherwise you gonna get hurt.

I hate them.

They spawn only during a wave. You see when the next wave is coming so start digging one in advance. The tunnel doesn't need to be a massive one either. The whole point is to have them all coming through one chokepoint that allows you to focus damage and increases the chances of them blowing up in a nice chain reaction of little explosions.

Haz 5 Azure Weald is a walk in the park once you have maxed your stats and with a decent build. Try wavecooker on interrogator driller. Just level that one alone and nothing else, easy run. Always pick increase range for that weapon.

Don't even need any weapon upgrades on it. Or any other weapons for that matter. Interrogator is a beast even with level 1 weapons.

Electrical fence (turrets) with exp magnetism - easy way to kill that bugs. You just run out and collect resources.
My setup is second engineer with Warthog+plasma mod and electrical fence. Easy deep dive in any biome.

I wish i could do that, unfortunately that's up to RNGesus, and more often than not - impossible without rerolls, which costs gold

I'm piling on the hate bandwagon. They're just not fun. The bugs that make the bubbles...those are fun and cool, but those little exploders are too tough, too fast, too many, and too fast to pop. They just suck the fun out of that biome imo.

This 100%.
Also i hate when the drop pod drops you off after landing on the only healing crystal on the level.

Azure Weald sucks in general. All of it. Wardens make some guns unplayable and in general make the game unfun to play. I cringe everytime I see this map appear for the daily/weekly.
