What are your thoughts on the Volge, Are you happy with how tough they are ?
I would love to see a Volge BUFF in toughness and at least make them the challenge we need as a top level enemy.

If any of you newer players had been here when they added the Volge for the first time (Last June I wanna say?) you'd be making the opposite posts.
No dig, just find it amusing.
You should have seen the wall of "Nerf the Volge" threads back then... LOL
Now - they are a walk in the park - a slight bit more challenging than killing POWs.

I miss the old Volge. Would be cool to make them as tough as they once were but have fewer Volge emergencies.
I'm not totally 100 percent sure on this but I believe they got the nerf before the red arrows over a enemies head and with what the problem was with the great north point stall out on wave 5 or 6. I believe they were nerf gunned while attempting to fix the stall out and before the red arrow over enemy heads so if there was a volge stuck in the ground or a wall or anything we would be able to spot it and report it.
The red arrows came with Dlc 1 or 2 so yes, the Volge were nerfed before the red arrows.
On topic the Volge were nerfed twice because the NEW players couldn't handle them and weren't smart enough to stay in mount Tam until they leveled a little and found a couple teammates. If they reverted the Volge back to their original state, most of the newer people would once again scream for a big nerf. So would the people who do Arkbreaks, because that would mean all the Volge at Arkbreaks would be tougher, and in turn they would probably re-buff the Warmaster to once again show us how much tougher he is supposed to be than the other Volge in game.

Now this was what people were asking for as regards to buffing anything down. As for me I wished for this everyday I logged on to have fewer emergencies to run into or that they were more off the road. It would suck to be driving and run into them and they chase you and sometimes kill you. I miss at times running away in fear for my life.
They used to be bad arse foe! The whiners begged for them to be nerfed. It happened. The rest of us have been pleading with them ever since to put them back.
They were nerfed before the Volge Sieges were even brought back.
I'll never forget my first run in with the Volge right outside of northpoint man was it crazy. It took a while to take them down and was like 8 people on them and I went down and was a kodak moment for me within Defiance of pure insaneness.
I remember I took a week break off from Defiance and when I logged in they were the first thing I ran into and after the great battle I hopped onto the forums asking any and all what the heck I had just encountered.
Almost shed a tear for what the volge were at for a time.
I was one of the whiners to get the emergencies moved off the road but not weaker. Also back in the day there was the issue of driving and the lag with invisible volge I would drive into and blow up my car then with the invisible volge to spawn and chase me. Compared to then and now at least it is nowhere near as bad as it was back then so I think it could be done and now the red arrows show up even when they are invisible waiting to show up on my tv but doing damage to me so that helps out lots.
I actually enjoyed the "Invisible Volge" at times. I looked at it as if I had accidently stumbled into their phase, so they were merited to be pissed at me and want my head on a platter. If i had the proper load out equipped, I'd test my mettle. If I didn't, I ran like a wussy hoping I could get far enough away to spawn my duni and get the hell outta there! LOL
Oh...Those were really fun days in Defiance! The unexpected.
