MR 9 test, but specialist gear not required. Let me help you Tenno.

Ok so if this should be in players helping players I apologise and mods feel free to move it but I've seen a fair few threads now about this test and it's current state and so it feels like a current discussion topic to me. Some of these are complaint threads, some of these are helpful threads but they seem to always specify certain gear in order to do this ie Banshee and Redeemer, Glaive etc. It just isn't necessary so I spent 15 or so minutes observing the guard patterns which never change and mapped it all out into an easy to follow tutorial for you all. Bring your favourite frame, your favourite melee and equip Enemy radar or any other enemy spotting mod so they appear on your mini map and that's about all you'll need. In order to put myself in the shoes of an MR 8 I also removed my Riven and Primed Reach on the melee and used just the normal Reach mod. The guard movements are scripted and NEVER CHANGE, this will ALWAYS WORK.

Since stealth is of the essence, I've gone for a nice stealthy Rhino frame. Hope this helps some of you and more importantly, dispells the myth that only certain frames or weaponry can accomplish this test.

The test used to be a lot easier. I was able to pass it with Zephyr and Broken War by navigating the pillar tops and dropping down and killing the enemies... just like ninjas in the movies. My strategy doesn't work anymore. It's not stealthy anymore...

Yes it was easier which is why I revisited it and laid out this tutorial. But I want people to see that you don't need to use a Banshee and Redeemer in order to pass this. Just some common sense and observation of the guards FIXED PATTERNS, is enough.

I finished this test multiple times but with starter gears or just with a skana equipped. I usually went and killed the upper guards on the last part, moved left killed the dude, moved to up killed the second, then killed the third one. I left the right side and the one at middle last.

Basically you can kill these guards with any non stealthy frame the only thing need is the timing. I failed 2 times this test overall of the 53 run I did to master up but those was bugged and the guards detected me at start. The second time just they detected a corpse and in the last stage I fall off the map due a bug then failed. I can say by experience this test is not the hardest and the second test is harder if you consider your gear is weak and if you have a slow item then you possibly can fail. New players have no good gear at start but the mr 9 test is suppose the player already did gear ups and have enough patience and timing to finish the quest. 

Anyway helping others is a good thing and this test also good to give some hint to new players.
