    My last 2 antiviral spawns

    Where located in DZ 6, atop the tall building where the helipad is surrounded by elite LMB and a boss. Not really a problem, first time I died from being overwhelmed.

    On my 2nd run with the same spawn the game was generous with medicine and drops so I was able to better gear myself and solo them all and get the antiviral.

    But it concerns me, under normal circumstances this is a very risky spawn for antivirals, no? Given on my first attempt I just had crappy drops and barely any meds at all and already at final stage of sepsis just as I enter the dark zone it's very pressuring, nigh impossible with inadequate gear+solo.

    Yeah It's happened to me to.

    I can't imagine a casual player being able to do this at all honestly.

    That's what I'm thinking, on my 2nd attempt I managed to lure them all the way to the other side of the rooftop and divide them nicely, with help of grenades and letting them close in 1 by 1 my shotgun made surprising work of them.

    There's absolutely no way to get the virals without aggroing them and you need half decent gear and a solid weapon to engage them on your own.

    But as on my 1st attempt I just got melted instantly.

    Same my first attempt solo at this location I got absolutely destroyed. Went back again solo and took my time. Kited them around and used nades as well. It's hard but doable.
    I actually like it when the game gets this difficult. I'd prefer the game to be more like this and difficult. But there's to many cry baby self entitled children.

    Happened to me on my very first attempt: Ran headlong into a bunch of elite bruisers. Promptly turned around and ran, yelling like a hysterical teenager......

    Never bothered with antivirals again.

    Do you have to get the anti's out? I never paid much attention, I just went and got them.

    But yeah, first time I died to a 32 mob trying to get em.

    No. Don't need them at all.

    My first time in, I got crazy lucky. medicine/mats everywhere, guys dying left and right drpping mats/gear for me, got in the DZ and the AV was at the Construction Site with easy vets around it.

    Every time since it has been in DZ5 or 6. :P
