    Ameherst's as a Legendary?

    Update 1.8.1—launching in April with Legendary modes for Amherst’s apartment and Grand Central Station, the Xbox One X patch (4k rendering, improved reflections/shadows/detail), new Classified acquisition rates, a new Global Event: Blackout followed by new Global Event: Onslaught in May.

    I saw it earlier and know there was a little discussion, but really? The shortest mission 3:30 to 4 minutes solo with a really small playing area not really sure what they are going for. I can see Grand Central Station with a decent amount of space.

    I was really hoping we would get Russian Consulate, Queen's Tunnel or General Assembly.

    I could see adding Challenging to the missions that do not already have it and Legendary to the longer missions but Amherst was the absolute last mission I would have thought made into a Legendary.

    well Amherst and GCS are the first two, they held onto the info on the other two missions that will get legendary so im hoping for Russian Consulate as well with Putin as the main boss.

    Well, let's wait and see. You'll get your answer right about now sometime when the P.T.S. reports start trickling in.

    They confirmed it's going to play quite differently.

    Somehow I think that's it's gonna hurt.......

    Looking at some stream, seems like all mob are elite NPC, so is no like a combination of red, purple and yellow like the old 3?

    And Ameherst can skip some part.

    If you go up the trellis after exiting the apartment you can just breeze past the mob there - the bit going upto the apartment with slight tweaks to approach even with elite level damage incoming isn't that bad.

    There are a couple of bits where you can just bypass the mobs earlier as well should be able to cut it down sub 3 minutes with a 3-4 man group depending on how tough the last bit is.

    Albeit not legendary difficulty but the first run of the Assault GE I had it down less than 3 minutes a run with the damage modifier and only killing one group IIRC before the end fight.
