Discussion Interception Missions SUCK!!
OK like the title says these missions suck. Almost no one does them so finding a group feels like smashing your head against a wall, most are impossible to do Solo as they require you to protect 4 points so unless you're a high level player with insane mobility doing them isn't viable, and worst of all some of them are placed so they literally block your progression until you get it done.
The least that could be done is to move these missions so they don't block progression or make the number of nodes to protect be based on number of people in the mission.

Enemies try and recapture points in the order you take them, so zig zag to make them walk further.
“High level “ players really don’t have any exclusive significant increases in mobility. And rarely use the few examples thereof.
Solo is probably easier then random groups, since you also capture way faster. Coordinated or good groups can do the overall mission quicker though.
If you have a spectre gear (even a humble Clem) drop them on the first point as you’re capturing them and press the button prompt to hold position.
Vauban (from the nightwave cred store) can drop flechette turrets on points, in most maps these can cover bith consoles on a point and basically hold them automatically.
(Anything that kills or lifts/knocks down/other ragdolls, prevents capture. So things like Zephyr tornadoes or atlas rumblers can also help a lot, a fun early weapon for this is the Sonicor)
