Group with comms is fine. Randoms... probably not.
Again, I think the biggest issue here are random players and not the design itself. That encounter is very manageable, but target priority and knowing when to save some in the mag for rushers is essential.
I think I was just matched up with consecutively bad teams. I had run it previously with a smarter group and didn't have too many issues. But I can't convince 3 other randoms to not hunker down during the third wave of the fight. Or to not lay out revive or heal hives in the same area where a rusher can just destroy it instantly.
Yep, this is largely why I play mostly solo/duo. I really like higher difficulties with a co-ordinated group, but MM is a crapshoot and often leaves me actively hating encounters I previously enjoyed.
I do not find it a slog, though. I get you find this game frustrating, but it's also a little frustrating hearing you constantly tell us all how it is when many of us don't feel the same.
You can do it just wandering around. Missions are easier though since there are more enemies and you can better control what types of enemies you'll be facing.
It depends...
Okay, I have unlocked harder difficulties.
Yep, just select the Exotic tab at the crafting station and you can craft it.
You will get basic components, and an exotic component for generic exotic crafting, but you will need to farm the Liberty parts and the D50 again.
WOW nice finds, I'm jellyI think around this time last week I was lamenting about my poor league performance and figured decent rewards were out of reach.
Today I finished the league without even touching Bunker or Roosevelt the second week (again, thanks astro for guiding me through Roosevelt last weekend!), and as a result got these:
I return to the polarity grind with newfound vigor.
Oh, yeh, I would recommend putting a DMG out of cover or another dmg attribute in place of that Optimal range. I think you'll find the range is more than good enough on the Baker's.I think around this time last week I was lamenting about my poor league performance and figured decent rewards were out of reach.

You're welcome mate! :)

It's definitely faster solo as you get all the credit. It's also probably worth waiting until all stages are unlocks and blowing through them all at once.
Complaining constantly ITT isn't going to do anything though, lol.
Honestly, even if it's not a god roll it will likely help you more than the Optimal will. I know it's annoying to look at a non max bar, especially if it was max to begin with lol.
Oooh, I get it! I have a few weapons that are like 2% off overall god roll and it bothers me constantly. That 2% is not going to matter at all, but I will still farm over and over for the perfect drops >.<

Unfortunately, it is the same with the subreddit... People want a "Challenge" then complain when things are challenging and they can't face roll endgame content. They will get it nerfed, then complain that the game is boring, easy, and that there is nothing to do.I barely open this thread anymore cause all I see is EoM complaining about something again

At this point I really like where the game is at difficultly-wise. I would say the only thing I really hope they tune are:
On console, go to map, press up on the d pad. There's a few things at the bottom of the map you can toggle on/off that way.
Suggestion: wait one more day for the last challenges to be out. Switch your global difficulty to normal. Spend 2-3 hours and get all of them done at once. The Exotic Cache is worth it - if it's like the other one, it drops god rolled. 2-3 hours for a god rolled exotic is far less investment than farming them normally, and even then there's no guarantee you'll get a good roll.
It isn't a HUGE change on solo/duo, but you'll feel it. Enemies don't hit quite as hard, but can still melt you if you aren't careful. On 3 and 4 player scaling, it feels better because of that and reduced scaling armor/health. It'll still be a challenge, but you probably will have less moments of frustration from pre-patch, thinking you should have been able to stagger an enemy approaching you
It's funny how much more manageable that room is if people focus fire on suicide bombers, or at the very least, don't run towards their teammates when chased by one. If everyone has a revive hive, downs are totally okay, just chuck one over when the fire subsides. What gets frustrating is when 2-3 teammates go down from the same one. One player can't dodge all of the bombers/suicide fire and the boss rusher long enough to revive everyone. But that's the difference between coordinated and uncoordinated teams. Also, with major DPS across the group, you can probably take the boss down really quickly with focus fire as he exits his little glassed area. That helps a lot.
Hrmm. This happened to me once with timers for the Challenging Missions. Not sure what caused it or how I got it back. My only guess would be to hard quit/restart again? (And I'm sure you have, but...make sure the Global Event is still set to on?)
Thanks. Tried all of that, no dice. Very annoying...
