"general" Rank Steel Meridian Mission Seemed A Little Off...

[(XBOX)Shadow Killa 57]

I don't know if it was just me or if it was the game, but I swear that a "General" rank steel meridian mission (on 9/17)seemed a little harder than usual. It was a sabotage mission (against the Grineer) which was the highest available for the steel Meridian syndicate and it seemed like the enemies were more powerful than they normally would've been. It was almost like they were doing nightmare level damage to me. I didn't know if it was a bug or what but the enemies aren't normally that hard. Not necessarily complaining as I've gotten past the mission, but just thought it was a little strange.

Syndicate missions do tend to have higher level enemies than normal in the area, kinda like how regular alerts are harder than the rest of the planet but never had them as hard as a nightmare run.

I noticed the same thing, I put it down to getting tagged by Ballista's but yeah I was going from full Iron Skin to low health in the blink of an eye on occasion.

I think I realized what the problem was. More or less I think it's just the fact that the Arid Grineer (in the phobos desert setting) are a little harder to deal with than the regular grineer.

Yup. Arid Grineer, when boosted up to level 36-40 are tough mofos. The Intercept  version is one of the few missions I can't carry pugs in.
