Looks like for me with this GE the most effective way is to farm Amherst's Apartment (about 1700 GE credits per run) on legendary in a group.
With a decent team we were able to do this mission in 9-10 minutes. Plus you always get an exotic from hunter, sometimes classified and a lot of other loot.
I recommend Time Square Power Relay on the last modifier. Run a build with strong survivability - Nomad, Reclaimer etc.
1. Shoot into open space until your charge bar is half way,
2. Run up to an NPC and melee kill them
3. Repeat until mission is done.
Use med kits and recovery link where required. Should be much quicker than Amherst and a lot more fun.
I thought it was just the heavy that you could only hurt by hitting his weak point. I may be wrong.Originally Posted by rosch15 Go to original post
It's possible that the hunters and named heavies just have too large a health pool and they set up the Global Event modifier to just give that melee attack a massive damage output but it's not enough to take those guys out in one hit.Originally Posted by rosch15 Go to original post
out of curiosity, how much health does the hunter have? They sound so difficult to kill.Originally Posted by Sangersss Go to original post
The Hunters in legendary missions feels like they have over 10 mil health.Originally Posted by UbiSc0ttie Go to original post
Just a guess though.
Yesterday I was with a good team and we did Amherst's Apartment runs in 6.5-7 minutes. That was crazy.
We had 3 DPS guys and one tactician with support station, Tactical Scanner and Tactical Link.
We just wiped NPCs from the locations. The hunter was melted just like regular mob.
I don't think such result is achievable in Times Square because the mobs are spread over huge location, you need to carry the fuse etc.
