Mob Damage Question, Neptune Extermination Aw.

[DSpite]

Does a particular enemy have a high spike, single high damage attack?

 

I'm going from full to dead in one hit sometimes. I know there is a unit with some sort of missile attack, but there is so much brightness and flashes onscreen I have no idea when they launch so I cant chaff efficiently, if that's whats causing it.

You are talking about those Hellion Dargyns, right? 

 

One way to escape that is to just press the Roll button and Sprint away, since if one missile inflicts a Blast status effect, you are going to be shredded quite easily by other things.

I'm not sure. I have a lot of difficulty seeing anything. It's extremely hard for me to both aim at them and then read the names as I need a moment to focus on the text, and usually I move or they move.

 

The whole fight to me is just one huge snowstorm as far as vision. All that happens is that one combat all is fine, even me going melee with a bunch of them, next combat I do the same thing and either bang, no shields, or just bang, dead.

No, neptune is a Corpus mission, so it can't be those missile guys. The only thing I can think of is the gox, which looks like a giant floating box-turret thing, so it's kinda hard to miss. They have a pretty strong laser that's like 5 flux rifle beams, looks like.

Whoops. I always mix up 'The Blue Planet' and 'The Slightly Bluer Planet.'.

My guess would be either a Penta Ranger or as Endorphinz suggested, a Gox.  Both hit significantly harder than the rest of the corpus enemies.  Those and the grineer hellions/ogmas are the reason why I use a maxed armor/health Valkyr with the rejuv aura in AW missions.  With 1692 armor it's possible to take a few hits before splatting.
