MacKillicutty Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Ok so, are level 30-35 infested supposed to be able to one shot you through your shields in nightmare mode? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reithur Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Happened to me today with some on Venus and Earth (lvl 17 Banshee w/ lvl 1 Vitality & Redirection on). All nightmare mode enemies are buffed for damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katakuna Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Everything is supposed to one shot you in nightmare mode. The objective is to never ever get hit in the first place. Shields? More like single-layer toilet paper. At least, that is the conclusion I've come to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Rue_ Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) isn't there a nightmare mode where they can OHK you? Edited July 25, 2013 by _Rue_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKillicutty Posted July 25, 2013 Author Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) Buffed or not. The infested were one shotting me through my shields DIRECTLY to my hp... Edited July 25, 2013 by sanokillzone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCatLad Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I havent done any Pluto Nightmare...but so far Nightmare seems relatively easy. Still they have gotten to my health plenty of times. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Korevas Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Happened to me today with some on Venus and Earth (lvl 17 Banshee w/ lvl 1 Vitality & Redirection on). All nightmare mode enemies are buffed for damage. Sorry, but if you bring an almost unmodded noobframe into nightmare mode, you deserve to get OHKOed. In other news, we can still oneshot nightmare enemies with many weapons, we have widely superior range, movement speed and cc. No matter how hard they hit, if you die to melee mobs in this game, it's probably a player issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WindHorse Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I have to agree with Korevas on the point that what you bring to a Nightmare mode really determines your success. When I am farming Nightmare mode content (even early planets), I will bring a level 30 frame that has a maxed Vitality and Redirection. Additionally, I ensure my secondary weapon is a strong choice (preferably level 30 as well) to offset when vampirism is enabled. Now, you cannot be KO'ed from the vampirism (it stops at 1%), but I tend to ensure that I am replenishing my health out of "good" practice with my secondary. I do most of my farming with Rhino these days due to his Vanguard helmet (recently acquired from an alert) and then I maximized my Rush mod. His Iron Skin may not be the most "tanky" ability of the game (Trinity Link, Ember Overheat + Max Focus, Ash stealthing, Frost/Prime Snow Globe I feel are stronger), but his ultimate appeals to my game play style and he looks pretty cool in black.

Fate_6 Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 (edited) I went to nightmare mode with my unforma'd Sandal and was 1hko-ing most non-heavy enemies EDIT: And heaven forbid we actually die in a practically unmodded squishy frame. It's like we're supposed to actually worry about survivability =O Edited July 25, 2013 by Fate_6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElectiDei Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 I've seen that when vampire mode is active, the mobs in those levels will periodically gain the ability to OHK me through 900+ shields and 600 health, making me believe it is a bug. Prime example is a shield lancer shield bashing me to death as I walked around a corner. Also happens with chargers, but I've lived from them before on my frost after taking 500 direct health damage.

I have a feeling there may be a bug somewhere there as well. On the same frame and mission, I have both survived this attack and been OHK'ed from it with similar health/shields. Perhaps, there was a critical hit if it is not a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
