The best way to defeat them is to take the Serval AMR with you, although the ammo probably won't last the whole battle, so I advise you to bring a supply drop signal with you. Apart from that it helps to stay in cover and wait for them to CQC you. You simply counter them and shoot as many shots as possible with the Serval from point blank range.

You can use one of the warehouse roofs, they don't go up unless they do the attack which you can dodge and just shoot them from the top.

And if you have the right equipment for Quiet, bring her, too. With right equipment I mean her Brennan LRS, don't know how it is called exactly... but it should deal some damage and work as a temporary distraction. Although Quiet may shoot some puppet-soilders, which isn't really helpful if you want to extract the soilders afterwards.

if you slide at max speed with the D walker, you can avoid the rock throws, the only real danger is the teleport jump melee attack that could one shot you, if you stay a distance, it should be simple to mow them down with the gattling gun.

D-Walker is actually really good for this Mission. Just cause one or two of them will try to teleport right next to you and release Rust. That's where you got a Bunch of Free Shots, and the guys that Summon Rocks, Just drive to them and they'll Freak out and drop the rock and bounch back and away.

Using the Minigun with the 1500 Round mag you can kill 3 or all of them with it and the back up guns like the Machine Pistols work wonders on them too.

I majorly disagree.
Just use a rank 5 serval with a red dot sight on it and learn to dive to avoid rocks. I really can't see why people have such a hard time with this mission on normal or extreme. Skulls are predictable. And the serval/brennan can shoot through the rocks they create to hide behind.

The most comfortable way to tacke that mission if you RUN STRAIGHT UP THE TOP OF THE HANGAR. YOU CAN CLIMB UP AT BACK.
The only problem is that without quiet (you can position her apart from the hangar - attack) is that the skulls stay mainly inside bellow you so you are supposed to shoot them from the side windows on the roof. AMR or a machine gun does its job, the stronger the bertter of course but do not need level 5 or 6 weapon.

well
i abused the roof and buidlings to stop their rock attack but still got A,need more tries with lower mission time i guess
Seamus Aug 13, 2017 @ 1:13pm 
Don't bother with the roof. Take an AMR, either the Brennan or Serval. Shoot and move. Dive to avoid rocks, cqc counter the melee attacks.

Don't overcomplicate ♥♥♥♥ by trying to hide.

I always just use the parasite armor(no it isn't rank restricting, only parasite camo is) and blast them away with a LMG. Just take whichever one you have with the highest penetration available.

Also be sure to take Quiet and equip her with the Brennan LRS.

You can widdle their armor down pretty quickly, just focus on one until they're down, extract, repeat.

Other than that stay near some kind of cover for when they start chucking those rocks at you and try to counter as many machete blows as possible.

On extreme, if you're using the parasite armor, you barely even need to avoid the rocks as long as you don't let the armor expire. The armor is seriously overpowered.

You can also use the mounted weapons near the main building.

Too true. I'll take the first level armor, and maybe.. like a lvl 5 or 6 lmg...

It's kinda like a time attack... Try to take them all down before I run out of armor and get owned.

Workable, but I've always been faster at clearing it with the serval. Probably a result of running the skull fob mission more times than I can remember.
