    I cant provide a link but I remember a thread not long ago where ppl were saying they got 5k for the run and if I'm not totally wrong I think I heard Brent(?) say that it was a bug and it was/will be fixed on some of the twitch shows.

    That was in the patch notes.
  3. can you provide a link please, just for disclosure!

    I just tried some random lsm match to try it and from 10 minutes in (we got to the first warrior and died as luck would have it) I got the following xp. uploaded in picture


    I can spend 10 minutes dandying around in mp, blow up 1 tank, and have that xp.


    I've finished it before it was nerfed(as orks ) and I got 5k exp.req, i sincerely hope the completion bonus was increased to make it worth it considering the time investment

    I don't remember which patch notes, but the last game I was in that we actually won, I managed 4k XP and Req.

    Now? The map where you have to clear the ventilation room first (TARGET PRACTICE! YAY!) has returned. And every SINGLE room after that has a warrior. :(

    PUGs just can't handle that kind of hard on 'normal' difficulty.

    Hi Guys,

    In normal mode you are not supposed to have warriors in every room all the time.
    Maybe you were unlucky?

    For the Xp cap, yes it has been raised.

    @Kalenath can you confirm it happens in every playthrough?

    thanks.

    Today, I have only gotten Crucible starts. No ventilator room. But yesterday? EVERY SINGLE game until LATE my time. 20+ games that I remember, 3 12k boxes unlocked in a full day of playing. Tried all day to beat that blasted map. Failed.

    Every single game, every single corridor or room that COULD have a warrior DID. It was... UNPLEASANT. Never finished a mission when we started in the Ventilator room.

    Today, we got the Crucible both times I have played. Sigh of relief, let me tell you...

    Having a Warrior spawn in the Crucible room after starting with the Ventilator room is PAINFUL if your team is not ready for it. (None of mine were. Even when I went in with Power Fist, I got swarmed/shot in the back).

    (edit) I remember that from before. A few weeks ago? There is a warrior that spawns in the sewer, one that spawns in the room with point C above the exit and another that spawns in the Crucible room. OUCH. And this was 'normal' difficulty. If THIS is 'normal', I DON'T want to see 'hard'. (Will you drop a Carnifex in there somewhere?) The Crucible was as far as ANY of my teams GOT.

    I went through patch notes and indeed couldn't find it.
    Maybe it was mentioned on last twitch then?

    Long story short:
    Its fixed and confirmed now.

    I've done PvE a handful of times, but its generally too hard for most pugs and the small amount of XP gained for not completing it sucks.

    My thing is that there is a LOT less lag on the PVE maps for a lot of reasons so I CAN actually shoot things.

    When the assault/traitor assault/banshee/slugga boy doesn't jump in front of my charged plasma shot that is...

    @Kalenath is it because the warrior is too accurate? Is he too strong?
    I will take a look at the warrior in the Crucible, I am also going to check his HP, I will reduce them again.

    Do you know if there are a lot of people complaining about the difficulty?
