ETA: Video from @Voidforged who may be able to give you some tips. Edited May 18, 2017 by (XB1)R3d P01nt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 (PSN)RedDeviL1085 Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Cerberus is good solo. Best way to capture the points is A, D, C, B, with recaps after the enemies capture a point, allowing the loss of a point increases the time per round but also increases the chance of 2 Ambulas spawning per round . Note that the best way to get from D to B or C is to jump up the walls. My loadout for this is Loki perma-invis build with Zenurik focus, Tigris prime 100% status (gas/magnetic), Pox 100% status (blast/corrosive), any high damage, high speed melee with maxed Condition Overload (avoid radiation damage as this causes Ambulas to attack randomly). Strip Ambulas' armor using the Pox, then fire both rounds from Tigris and melee rapidly while status is still present. Condition Overload increases melee damage by +60% per status and Ambulas will have between 4 and 7 effects at a time, so you will be doing 240%-420% more damage per strike. 240 beacons requires 30-35 rounds depending on the number of double spawns that occur. With this setup I got 248 beacons in 33 rounds solo and Lv 200+ Ambulas took the same time to kill as Lv 50. Hope this helps and good luck.

0 Xzorn Posted May 19, 2017 Share Posted May 19, 2017 I did it solo with Nyx on Outer Terminus. Took 42 Defense rounds around 2 hours of time. It's actually super simple. Ambulas will spawn once every round or every 2.5 minutes. Use Mind control to pause each wave until he spawns then move to the next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried yesterday with a max range Nyx on Cerberus and got extremely bored at 71 beacons. Had 0 deaths but I was basically tired. What you mean by pause each wave with mind control?

I was just using a basic setup with Gas Ignis for the waves and status Corrosive Akstiletto P for Ambulas. I used Assimilate instead of Pacifying Bolts to shoot Ambulas without any danger. I didn't actually use anything but Assimilate and Mind Control so you could go with something more specialized if you want, I didn't use Chaos at all. 2 hours ago, (PS4)lhbuch said: Tried yesterday with a max range Nyx on Cerberus and got extremely bored at 71 beacons.

Keep refreshing mind control until Ambulas spawns. Helps to take your Sentinel's weapon off so he doesn't kill them. ....and yea, it's pretty boring but it's full proof since the enemy waves won't get very high in level and Ambulas will be around lvl 150.
