I felt the panic quite a few times on server 2 before on wave 3. When a few to a group of monsters start dealing high amount of damage. Only by jumping and throwing mines to vamp for health I could stand a chance to survive. And could only get lucky on wave 4 by doing the using method when a small group of monsters start firing. And on wave 5 you don't stand a chance.

I remember when the server was new, play only waves 2 even when I max my dr, some health and some vamp and kept changing maps but it is fast and get alot of xp based on wave 1 and 2. That get me over level 150.

It is scary and I got eaten alot of times on wave 3. But felt so happy when I able to survive wave 3 and sometimes wave 4 just by jumping and throwing mines. Wave 3 is much difficult due to that monsters with the bio rifle.

A very scary experience. Don't leave Ham alone outside.

I assume you're talking about Shrikes.

They just have an inordinate amount of health, and a low points value.
It could be that... but I think it's because the Shrikes come in droves.... titans and queens usually don't

If I remember correctly, the Shrikes when they are invisible do not take damage, they are in some sort of 'stealth' mode, and thats why they appear to be of higher health value, then again maybe I misunderstood what Bio had told me, but I thought thats how they work in general...Null seems to help kill them quicker in my opinion ....

While stealthed the Shrikes are 100% immune to damage from Mines. Pretty sure other weapons work as normal against them though.

Yeah they are immune to damage in general while stealth, but not the effects of null and freeze. So while frozen you are able to retain a sight on them and deliver more ammo which in turn when they unstelth will then take damage and die.
