Mission difficulty too hard

[jnt]

First off let me start off by saying that most people will respond to this post with the reply that I as a gamer should just get better and let me tell u, that in fact is not the case. There is a huge problem with an aspect of how these missions are designed. In the case that u have a npc ally in a mission and that ally dies more enemies are added continuously until the npc is revived and the mission becomes increasingly harder as if dying isnt punishment enough. This simple mistake in design makes some missions almost unbeatable and makes the game, to me at least, not even playable.

You can abandon and restart til you get the hang of it. Feel free to abuse your roller on the hellbug, mutant, and raider ones too.

Stuns with the FB grenade are great, and give you time to regroup and re-assess the situation, reload, and kick some more ***. I think the problem a lot of players are having is a focus on grabbing perks and setting up their characters to deal maximum damage (glass cannons, as it were), and fail to get defensive perks like 'Cellular Armor' (constant dmg reduction), 'Regeneration'(constant HP regen), and the like.

I dont find Cellular Armor worthwhile, its only 9% damage reduction - at 1600 shields thats what 2-3 extra shots. The HP Regen, with fortitude is amazing though.

Make the game super easy pick up a shield that has Fast delay and around 40% regarge. Then you actually have to try to die lol
Shield Delay>Recharge%>Capacity PvE

Saying that missions are "almost unbeatable" is taking it way out of proportion...

wow, i have found the game incredibly easy, i even killed nim first try, and i usually suck at shooters, i think its just the design of the game tho and its just a fluke that i am good at this one, there is definetly a learning curve with the game tho, you have to dodge ALOT and you have to also use cover and your power and grenades alot, also a respark shield might help, and using the proper weapon for the mission is also important.

also missions where you are with an npc ally dont keep respawning enemies till he is revived they will stop coming after a certain number and the npc will auto revive

Some missions are tough but none are impossible. It's not like the A.I is good.

I find this topic hilarious as whenever I came across a mission with an NPC ally I went "Woohoo a free decoy!" but whatever floats your boat.

Sniper Rifle + Stealth = Happy time head pinatas.
