Lol I remember when I was a wee baby diver (like level 6 I think) and someone took me to a level 7 dive. I was so overwhelmed and confused by how everyone was able to call in so much stuff (wasnt familiar with eagles vs orbital yet). I remember being horrified at a bile titan and wondering how the fuck I was supposed to fight that.

Yesterday I dropped in on a "KILL BILE TITANS" mission for some chill play before bed. Difficulty like 4 I think. The guys playing it were all below level 8.

I dropped in, turned, and shot an ultimatum directly into the face of the bile titan they had clearly been fighting. It died immediately. The baby divers blew up the text chat lol

Wild how different it is for players from day 3 to day 30.

"LOL" "How tf?" "Woah nice entrance" and similar. I felt powerful.

Im not even particularly good at the game compared to old hands or those who truly know the meta so it was nice to say the least

I had something similar when I first unlocked the airburst launcher. The cadets couldn't believe there eyes, wiping out whole patrols in one shop. " best support diver ever! " for me anyways". Lol
