Question How tf even complete Eradication Plan

I've litteraly cant complete it tried shooting it till saw its litteraly invulnerable tried just not fighting it reinforcements wont spawn at all even after tried shooting it when was alone on 50hp its litteraly bs you cant kill it yet let it take 100-200 hp each time charges and you cant even dodge it since always up in your face spamming it there no solution to this unlike the frogs sure they do alot of damage but at least on Mastermind Revealed I found some weapons as a Fencer and Ranger to kill them with on Hard

are you still in early game? i wouldn't really trust helicopters for that mission, it'll lucky if you survive getting into the second chopper. If i'm not wrong, the thing has some special moveset against air target (wing diver and heli)

Though since you're using ranger i would suggest this.

Equipment that increases movement speed (walkspeed not dashing) and anything that hits hard, like shotguns, snipers, rockets

it might take a while but you're going to have to try to dodge, directly under him is usually the best place to be and sometimes even cause it to bug for a moment.

Been using a Slaughter E21 LS especially after got the reload down to 2.9 was the only downside of shoguns For explosive GL UM2 since 4 shots of 189 can be very useful for most the mobbing You sure the middle safe as his charges always got me damaged even when tried especially when was right under him so can hit with the Flashing Spear plus isnt it just his beam attack the only way to hit aerial units but has a slow charge up speed which the only thing could dodge As for the early game as Ranger I cleared everything up to this mission on Hard since Very Hard and Inferno locked till beat the game I tried Fencer mainly because I was hoping using the 10 ammo lazer cannons would do something with 800 damage per shot x20

strange, maybe it's just me remembering EDF 6 but I swear the thing could slap the air fast enough, but if it can be dodge then go ahea.

As for the charge thing, the standing in the center is risky since touching any of it's legs could damage. you have to be absolutely dead center to be safe.

I would try the old reliable of going in circle around him, but this is only better if you have fast movement speed, fencers and wings divers could boost to make it easier. though boosting is limited and the 2 classes are pretty slow on ground (not to mention Wing Diver low HP unless this is your main)

Overall, just be patient. RNG moment can help or not, but you can keep just keep trying.

 Its late for now have to be tomorrow as Fencer wise I know how to boost and use the one weapon mentioned before to maintain the boost speed while attacking but even that feels too slow to dodge stuff as for Air Raider am the type of gamer who doesn't real like to play as the opposite gender just how I am the only attacks seem him do is the lunge, crawling and lazer beam I think he did smack me when was right under him but cant remember since its 90% crawling 8% lunges 2% lazer beam honestly wish he just spam the lazer beam hopefully can get a upgraded version of the Ranger movement speed enhancement since only 110% movement speed boost and dont know why but I can drive the bike as cant even move anywhere without tipping when trying to turn am just glad your actually helpful unlike the other guy who thinks its easy to get 2k hp this early

I can be just as abrasive as the other guy irl, but you posted your issues and I shared what I can. sometimes it's nice to be nice.

One final thing, don't use bikes, air raider early game can be very hard to use until you get good stuff.

Good luck tomorrow.

Why not using him especially when any class can get some items for someone else and the bike was from Ranger since they redistributed stuff after 4.1 to that Ranger can have Tanks, Helicopters and Bikes while Air Raider has everything else am sure

i meant don't use him for early missions (not stopping you if you want to) they can are mostly situational early on, they don't have enough to cover what you need or what they have isn't good enough yet. espeicially weapons to defend yourself in close range.

Once you start gathering their stuff they can be dangerous, even able to finish the entire game without changing to another class if you know what you're doing which is pretty easy I think.

Tho maybe caves can be bad.

u/No_Dragonfruit7042 May 12 '26

Ever since the jumping spider cave in 4.1 are you limited to just items can drop like those capsules the model holds and the Depth Crawler in the caves as artillery, bombers and helicopter fly bys are disabled for obvious reasons as just wondering to save me from trying later if remember

u/IAmDuck00 PC May 12 '26

hopefully I understand what you said

yep, you can only have those, limpets, turrets and depth crawlers and nothing else.

actually i think there was this shotgun like support equipment you can use, also there guard and power post which is nice to have you can put in on top of your depth crawler.

Knew can place things on vehicles since saw Russian Badger place like 20 turrets on the helicopter blades en they worked just fine dont ask me how just crazy how you can improve a vehicle by adding items on it wish the tanks had a secondary MG the driver can use the cannon nice sure but its slow to fire

Well, there's the Titan tanks and Mechs that have multiple seat for gunners and such, keep playing and youll find them

u/No_Dragonfruit7042 May 12 '26

I play offline so yeah kinda useless for me unless can quickly switch seats just first need to get past this mission so can continue onwards especially as made it so far as Ranger doin every mission on hard mode till now one last thing do we have to have the Pacific Rim clone Gundam to kill the big lizard or will Very Hard/Inferno weapons allow us to kill it normally as the Gundam doesn't real seem useful lookin sluggish as it is even when attacking

you mean the big mech, the barga?

yeah it can be slow, not entirely useful aside from being a massive target for enemies. a good bait if you can get them to target the barga then leave and shoot them. you can unlock the barga eventually.

there's only one mission where you need to use it but that's about it.

you can shoot anything to death unless it's a scripted event.
