The elevated overseers are ass

[pazow269]

they are bullet sponges, they can just fly out of your guns range, they have almost pinpoint accuracy and they do so much damage.

[Collateral]

I thought his when i first started against these...

But like anything practice makes perfect, Went from barely able to complete level 7 as 4 people, everything seemed OP to being able to duo level 9 difficulty missions with some challenge.

Machine gun is godly, auto canon / guard dog + an eagle airstrike (i used napalm or just normal airstrike) and ive never used orbital laser until now, its my new go to for these enemies mainly because its so useful for killing the sites with 3 spaceships... just launch a lazer and run away, lets you roll through the maps so easily.

If you are playing with a friend, taking something to help deal with walkers is always good but they are easily taken down if you shoot the point between their body and out leg, like a limb that connects the two.

Ive been having hella fun with these new mobs enemies.. hope they dont nerf it as its honestly fine once you get used to it and use the the right equipment.

kek if you are stuggling with regular enemy then you better quit right now
because when counsil members appear, they will scar you for life

It's not hit scan tho. There are no hit scan weapons in the game

Laser Weapons are that, more or less, though!

There are two other factions for you to fight.

My main issue with them is that they use grenades way too often

They are tanky against most weapons which sucks, even more so when you'd imagine the nimble flying enemy to be weaker because of all the added mobile that it has... instead it actually has more health! Or because of how it keeps moving around you just end up spreading out your damage too much

They are easy with a select few guns so there is at least that

please tell me what weapons are good against them, i dont care if it compromises my chances against other goobers, i just need the catharsis of killing them easier

Arc thrower, it perma stuns them and other ♥♥♥♥♥ on the illuminate front

i have grown incredibly bored with the other two factions. same with the environments, the urban warfare and new enemy's are fun, just annoying at some times

[Verxatious]

The way I take em down is just by using blitzer on them. Stuns them pretty well too, could make a opening for your squad to attack em, or do follow up shots with your support/secondary/primary.

If you're curious about what I bring, my primary is blitzer, secondary senator and I use the G-12 High Explosive as my throwable. Lesser risk of dying to close up explosion when you gotta use it against groups of voteless.

Stratagems: HMG, Eagle Airstrikes, Eagle 500KG Bomb and Gatling Sentry.

[FREEDOM ENFORCER]

I just use the diligence sounter sniper on them. Dealt with them just fine with the Stalwart too.

[rb303]

anything with medium pen can deal with them decently, the liberator penetrator can kill one with just under a full magazine as long as all your bullets hit; and way less if you aim for the head

[Galahad]

Yeah we just went through this year long journey of enemies feeling too tanky and our guns feeling like peashooters, then they drop a new faction and we're having the exact same problems. People here are saying a primary qualifies as good against these small, flying infantry units if it takes a mag to kill them. A whole mag, dude.

[Khal'cynee]

i know it look like a gear check but for real, try guard dog, its a game changer for illuminate front
its also very good on bots and bugs, but on illuminate with all these flying bullet sponge enemies, its just the perfect counter

Try Scorcher or Purifier, both drop em way quicker. Dominator "can" 2 shot them, but can take up to half a mag if you're not accurate. Upside is Dom has a lot of ammo compared to the Scorcher, but Scorcher just deletes them super quick, no precision required, just body shots is fine.

Or machineguns. I'm personally running the sickle to kill sentinels and machingun is for the overseers. For the voteless, I just use melee, sickle or eagle strafe run to destroy the ordes.
