Yep, I can easily kill both with EP too - without firing a shot. I was rather surprised first time I took one down with only three hits from my Firestarter...until I learned of the nerf they got.Originally Posted by TOKYO_ROGUE_YT Go to original post
They can still occasionally shred me, but it's usually when they show up during missions in an enclosed space (and I am not prepared). In the open world streets where I have lots of room to maneuver they are hardly even a challenge now (though I do enjoy taking them down...I just wish they dropped better stuff).
If I had a dollar to bet, I'd bet that what is going on most of the time is that the rogues spawned -- hence the isac alert -- but they spawned in a closet with a shut door, etc. Yet another variation on the same theme of bugs introduced throughout the lifecycle of the game updates and never really brought back under control.Originally Posted by Sock_Monkey Go to original post
I shot em' with the firestarter sidearmOriginally Posted by Sock_Monkey Go to original post, they melt faster
they are PART OF THE GAME. its just like "can you please make a on/off switch to disable the 3rd boss, cuz i dont like it".
their loot is better than usual, but its not guaranteed they will fit all your needs, as all the loot in this game, and if i didnt mention before, THEY´RE PART OF THE MAIN STORYLINE
First off, thanks to everyone for the serious conversation on the topic. Reading through all of this has been great. For those saying, get gud noob and the like, I just hope you realize that's not really helpful to anyone here so it would be great if you could keep the snarky, self-serving comments to yourself. The impotent anger thing is not a good look.
Just to be clear for those of you new to the game, rogue agents were NOT a part of the original game nor were they part of the story. Those of us who have been around since the beginning know this and understand this. Rogue agents can be killed and I often do. I just find them tedious and boring. The loot they drop is crap and not worth the time spent killing them. In legendary/heroic missions, they are unavoidable and definitely harder to kill and I'd just rather not deal with it.
My expectation from the game is to have fun and enjoy the time playing. Rogue agents take away from that for me. This is the same reason that I won't step foot in the Summit ever again. Some people enjoy it and that's fine. I don't and I choose not to put myself through the aggravation. Same thing with rogue agents. I am honestly surprised that so many people take issue with that.
