Doing this on hard mode, we always seem to get stuck at the defend the two confluxes. Just get overrun so quickly.

We aren't all stupidly under levelled either, has anyone from here done that part and can offer any tips? To me it all seems about positioning and each person having a particular role, but it doesn't seem to work out!

You mean the bit after you defend the first conflux in the middle? I believe that conflux is still active, so you actually have to defend three. That might be where you're going wrong. You want 2 defending each conflux. Tbh, one of the easier parts of the raid.

But yeah, I'm not sure it's even worth it because on our raid last night most of us were 'rewarded' with a shader and some ascendant materials.

It starts with just the centre then goes to defending the left and right, all three are after that. We just seem to get overrun and gradually fall apart.

I have got all the good stuff from hard mode already but would like to run it all the way through!

Got 300 attack weapons? If you are 29+ it shouldnt be a massive issue beyond communication - just how long it takes to down stuff. Be prepared to use heavy ammo a lot when it starts to fall apart as thats where you just cant easily get it back

I do, and I think most others did too. Comms seems to be an issue mainly, everyone always goes quiet.

Next time I'll make sure everyone has 300 attack weapons and is level 29 or above!
 
IME its all about communication and threat evaluation, the only reason I say 29+ is that at least it gives you some space between being ultra efficient and allowing any mistake to cause a wipe. Its strangely the goblins that are the issue, they just take too many bullets and thats when a domino effect happens once minotaurs/hobgoblins turn up and you lose those precious few seconds to spot/attack them

No, you're right. 29 is needed I think for sure. Just so you don't get one shotted by the snipers and you do more damage to everything. 33% more I think, though it might be 20%.
