"Operations" brawls coming back again!

I’ve been waiting for these to return for a looongg time!! :open_mouth:

Can’t wait to be brutally ravaged and have my mind taken over again!! :smiley:

Wait till you run into a female biker gang… :wink:

I wonder what I will run this time, in the past the most solid options were Parser, machine gun flying drones, yaoguai

Maybe I should invest in some jotuns if they go low enough now that the mini pass is over

I made a tri-doom build that’s within the 10k PS (which was the limit they had last time). With the new doom buffs/nerfs that increase reload speed, I should be fine (famous last words, I know). Considered a quad-Punji build but decided not to.

Last time the drones that you could fling through the air with the machine guns on them were OP (just logged on, they’re called “Yaoguai” drones, like FuggDaDevs said before), throw a couple, maybe 3 if you want, into ravager spawns and they can’t even get out. I wonder if the devs will prevent that from happening this time… likely not.

Whatever you all decide to do for the events PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS DO NOT put turret drones in the doorways!! I hated when people did that because then the team would get stuck and die on them, costing the entire battle.

Tips to remember:

  • shoot the eyes, they not only explode, but also stun the ravager enemies
  • Speed is good, faster=better. Ravagers have to ram to kill in these brawls, so if you can out-maneuver and out-speed them, you SHOULD be okay.
  • limit armor. If you drive zigzags where the plasma turrets are, you SHOULD be fine. Mass takes small amounts of acceleration away from the build, so if you DO use armor, use lighter armor.
  • If you are a ravager, group up together. Groups are harder to destroy than single ravagers. If you get too far ahead, wait a little for some buddies. Then, once you group up, overwhelm the survivors together. Even if they kill 1 or 2 ravagers, there should be plenty more ravagers if you group up.

Final thing: good luck and have funsies!! Don’t give up!!:smiley:

To an extent. If you’re a speed demon racing off ahead of the rest of the team, you will trip checkpoints that can allow Ravagers to respawn in better positions to ambush. Experience in the mode has shown, Survivors that stay packed up and alert just shut down the Ravagers. Also, don’t bump team mates to spin them around or knock them off of ledges in choke points. Like, seriously guys, pay attention and be patient. The stage design makes the perception of panicked urgency great, but an effective squad can just methodically annihilate all three flavors of Operation:(Mission).

1 vid i found,please post more…

True, that’s why some (including myself) wait just before the checkpoints until more survivors come closer. Groups do help too though… perhaps I should group up too. I will keep this in mind, thank you for the correction.

This was annoying on that one bridge section with the 2 bridges. People usually get pushed off that section. Please no shoving. :sob:

Just noticed: next brawl is scorpions??!!! WHERE’S THE OTHERS??!!! :sob:

Edit: forgot screenshot:

Considering the Devs still have yet to recognize the Turret problem and haven’t banned them from the modes, maybe it’s for the best.
