[DirtyFishy]

I just did this, I can confirm you can use vehicles, like the exosuits.

[Arc Thrower enjoyer]

Can't wait for SUPER HELLDIVE complition.

[Agen7 0range]

the easiest way to do it is on a bug eradicate mission

[smhungary89]

For me, it was much easier to this against the bugs with the P-19 Redeemer in a Eradicate Terminid Swarm mission. Bugs cant shoot back, and gas grenades are pretty good against them.
