Concerning the fight for that one choice(end game spoilers?).

Specifically landing the ship. Holy hell, against the monks it's all but impossible I swear. They disable your gadgets, all their weapons are better than yours(even with the absolute best weapons you have access to), all their armor is better than yours(again, this is with the absolute best I have access to) with a full team. Only just barely survived with my MC and Romero, everyone else was shredded by turn 4. Did *anyone* playtest this fight? And YES I used the EMP grenades they barely made a difference, jackasses were still hitting my characters with perfect accuracy in smoke, scoring critical hits like it was nothing. Reducing their AP by 14 didn't seem to make a single dent in their ability to attack 3-4 times a turn.

How many Monks did you face? I think it can vary based on with who you sided with?

I had to fight 2x armored monk + 2x named monk after leaving the bridge but I think in my first game there were more nameds incl. Azrael.

And even with my superman character the fight was difficult.

I defeated them by equipping everyone with stealth generators, so they don't get to start (or rather, start by attacking Romero). Put everyone except one of them in stasis (via grenade), the last one gets a emp+panic grenade -> kill him. Repeat. I had to get through my stash of grenades but was able to win that way.

But yeah, the monks are supposed to be absolute beasts. I like that there is a final, extremely difficult fight. I mean, its not like you are stuck - it's optional, you don't have to go against their wishes and do a surprise immediate landing to finish the game. Going down there unprepared is probably not the best idea anyway...

That's the one where you have to fight the two monks right? make sure to use pulse and disrupter grenades and energy weapons, if not...well you can still go buy some right?

Nope. If you do something that the monks really really don't like, they'll all turn on you as soon as you leave the Bridge.

Had to fight Azrael, Ava and three monks(one melee and two ranged with one having over 100 Initiative!).

I thought the game doesn't throw enemies at you that are beyond the system? These guys were *beyond* cracked out in terms of stats. 100% Toxic Immunity, high Vision and seemingly at least 100 Thermal. Along with *way* more than 20AP. I won by the skin of my teeth; these guys make Ol' Bub look like a cakewalk.

I managed to hit four of the five with an EMP grenade but then they did the exact same to me. Also I was using energy weapons but I could barely hit them meaning they had Evasion level around 10 or so. Even my tankiest character(my main) who I scrimped and scoured and saved to get every implant, upgrade AND overclocked and the MKII Combat Armor set only just survived by the skin of his teeth.
