Eximus And Ancients Galore

[R34LM]

With the new change for Ancients, they sort of act as unique eximus. Toss in actual eximus with them, and you have a really difficult threat to deal with. I was doing am eris DS defense by myself, which I was able to pull off before and wanted to see if I still could, and by wave 5 I was getting numerous ancients plus one eximus every squad spawn per wave. Needless to say that it is WAY too many auras going on there. It is a welcome challenge, to be sure, but it turns me off as a solo player. I'll work with other people next time, but could you perhaps tone the aura count down a tad for solo people?

Agreed, Ancient spawn count is way out of hand.

 

I love the mechanics, but I can't imagine it's intended that nearly every Infested is in range of an aura. This basically means every enemy has poison, drain or redirection of your damage as a heal.

It does seem a little severe.

 

Also, they really need their affinity values increase to be equivalent to the heavies of the other factions.  It used to be reasonable, as they just weren't as dangerous as a Napalm or Corpus Heavy.  Now they are, and it no longer makes sense for them to be worth less then half the affinity.
