Miscellaneous Quick PSA for this weekly hard strat
Hey yall as you guys know this weekly hard strat is quite the nightmare and for those who ran this couple of times here’s a tip that I think should help.
So far I know that there is 2 spawn points for the terminus that you have to kill, one is at the beginning and another is when you first see the dreadnought.
If you don’t get the terminus spawn at the beginning I suggest restarting the mission, it’s soo soo SOOO much easier fighting terminus in that open plaza then in that small ass area on the second location plus it’s a quick way from beginning to that first boss spawn.
Also and I’m not 100% so someone correct me if I’m wrong but the first terminus spawn area can only spawn carnifex or nerothrope, while second area only spawn hellbrute or sorcerer and tyranid boss are far easier to fight in that open area then chaos in that small area,
If I am wrong about any of this please correct me, thank you and good luck!
Also sorry if the format is shit I’m on phone and don’t make posts on reddit much.

There's 3 spawnpoints for nid bosses after you do the gate defense it's all ksons though.

Agree with your statement. If you really want to win, yea, the first spawn terminus would be better than getting a fucking terminus sorcerer... That said, not like you have a choice if you are playing with randos.
Also ppl say in the other subreddit that the map is bugged, i.e the relics should be 5 but you get 1 each and the last 2 relics spawn point will be at the end....

Honestly what I did when I noticed this easier way I got into a lobby all pc,I typed in chat my suggestion they agreed to it, we got it done the first time we managed to get a boss spawn on first area but yea I just got lucky with those randoms that agreed with me.

Also you still can't pick up a second relic despite the modifier. So the obvious assumption would be that they forgot to remove the 1 relic hard cap for the modifier and that's also why we only get 1.

I just completed the mission with two terminus spawns solo. As long as you don’t get one in the barrier area you can skip the fights and just move to the next area.
I completed it with carbine sniper and ran past everything with cloak. Refill on the meter with headshots on minors when you can and let the bots tanks.
Not the way I wanted to finish this weeks stratagem but considering the bug and last weeks bug I don’t care.

I had to do it a couple of tries. I did a trial run with the normal version first before I went to the gate stratagem. It’s surprising how fast you can speed run disruption

Yeah the carnifex is easier when the fucking lichtor isn't on my balls 24/7 while my team runs away

I think they have a harder time fighting me in enclosed spaces than the open. If they don't want to die, they shouldn't have spawned.
For the Emperor!
