I hate Elimination. Here's why.

[Aristedes]

Unlucky Nitra spawns? Softlocked.

Unlucky cave gen? Softlocked.

Room-temp-IQ evolutionary cul-de-sac teammates? Softlocked. Though this one applies universally.

You can eke out a finish even with bad luck on other missions, but you're basically screwed on Elim, and what's worse is that it's one of the more time-consuming missions so you waste a bunch of time for little reward if it turns out there physically isn't enough Nitra to kill the last boss.

buddy i have never seen anyone fail an elmination mission and i've played a far few of 'em where everyone was just goofin'. look within for how to improve.

and don't use the supplies just to restore health. the ammo is not for wasting because you have some owies, your buddies will help you up at much as it takes.

Prawn issue

Sounds like a skill issue.

I'm not ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ braindead, I only use a resupply if I have less than half ammo. More than twice now I've encountered a Haz4 elim where there was enough Nitra for around 3 resupplies, which may have been enough if the three mongoloids I was stuck with didn't instantly grab a resupply despite not needing it.

If you're so amazing, why are you not carrying?

[Vinegaroon]

The only time my team once failed an elimination mission because a meteor hit the center of the battle right as we pooped the cocoon. 2 of us went down from the impact one fell to the Dreadnought escaping the meteor the other to their death escaping the Dreadnought

[RaindropperinG]

Never had an Elimination without enough nitra, that I can remember about.

This is, most likely, an issue of not prioritizing Nitra collection over popping the cocoons, on top of other issues with the team itself.

[RUCKUS RELOADED]

number one counter to being caught short with nitra is to just play faster
stop screwing around with secondaries, machine events, mission loot etc. and just hard focus the cocoons. that way you spend your ammo first on the task you actually need to do which lets you leave early if youre on a nitra starved mission

lots of teammates are useless yes, but theres only so much you can blame them before you start looking inward

Go run a Haz4 elim with 4 players where 3 of them do the collective damage of 1 while burning the ammo for 3 people and the engi refuses to build turrets for some ungodly reason and then you can talk

Lots? Not lots. But the few that are ♥♥♥♥ it up for everyone else.

You only need 1 ressuply per boss, so 240 nitra at most for max length elimination.
If your build doesn't suck, you can even do it with 2 ressuplies instead of 3.

I can't argue about the room temperature IQ team mates, if your team mates make the dread weakpoint impossible to shoot by kiting in the wrong direction or make the twins heal over and over again, it's gonna be a pain in the ass.
What I do in this situation is to stop shooting altogether until the offender doesn't have any ammo. I can carry if everyone is on the ground, I can't do it if I run out of ammo because one team mate causes the boss to regen all the time.

If you were talking about Haz5-LowO2, I'd understand. But Haz4? I guess you're one of those 3 players and are too used to being carried. You can always lower the difficulty and play on Haz1/2/3

Wait for Slayer stout or Skullsmasher brew of an hour, drink, go solo, pickaxe dreadnotes. Bosco will help with arbalest. Works for EDDs.
