Tips

BINS-31

  • You will need to fight through several groups of enemies which may take up some time due to the several areas but this can be solved easily with area of effect damage, weapons or skills that can pull enemies together for easier targeting or other weapons which may damage several enemies at once.
  • Typhon DeLeon may prevent you from rushing past enemies and heading to the next location which will mean you have to clear each area that you will be passing by.
  • It would be wise to change your load out to stronger weapons since the enemies can be higher levels than you or your previous weapons may be ineffective.
