Mayhem Instance Guides?

[Dead Crowley]

Sorry if this is the wrong forum section. I tried using google and brave search engines to find some more info about Halloween Mayhem as this will be my first time trying to participate.

Is there something that shows the level of mobs for Annihilation and Survival? Which one is best for someone that has a 53 DPS max weapon?(I have A106 amp + some armatrix 25b/28b as well) I saw survival has some lower level mobs in the start, so I would need a few types of gun so as not to overkill? Also, which kind of armor/plates is best?

Thank you for any and all replies! I'd rather not go into the event blind and waste ped.

For Annihilation

entropiawiki: Creature: Annihilation Zombie

Pick an appropriate mission. You get roughly 1 point per ped spent on average.

 

[Katie Chalmers]

1.3 ped spend per point has been my long term average, depends how lucky you get with the big pointers.
cat 5 would be where I would start with what you list for getting the sweet spot of the required kills per minute to spawn the boss every 30 minutes. Go one up or down if required based on your buffs, pills, defensives and how quick you set your macro to repeat.

For me I run cat 5 with mod viceroy and some 6A plates and I handle it fine.

Overkil by a small margin isnt a factor anymore to be concerned about.

I got an advise: dont chose a mission that you finish in 2-3 days.

 

[AxeMurderer]

Don't chose a mission that you don't have the peds or time to finish.

With twen and m tokens should last players a lot more

If you plan to take gold, I suggest you choose redulite. it will motivate you to push a bit more. Which in most cases is really worth it. For example;

Full gold mission rewards (50.000 points)
2265 tokens
781 PED ammo

Redulite 50.000 points
2033 tokens
781,50 PED ammo

Redulite 60.000 points:
2814 tokens
937,80 PED ammo

Sure, you'll lose out on a cosmetic token. But the increase in tokens is worth much more in my opinion. Specially if you can push even further than what you originally planned for.

Regarding Armor recommendations, 3 years ago, I did this in another thread:

The Mayhem Armor Shop is currently optimized for the upcoming Halloween Mayhem

The primary damage type for the Halloween Mayhem as I understand, is:
Priority #1: Penetration
Priority #2: Impact
also some Electric
some Cut

Possible Armor Set-ups (from strongest to weakest):

Cat.​	ARMOR​	PENETRATION​	IMPACT​	ELECTRIC​	TOTAL​	PLATE for ANNIHILATION​	PLATE for SURVIVAL​
9-10​	Sentinel​	59.5​	68​	6​	133.5​	AP-42 Electric​	AP-42 Electric​
8-9​	Rutuba​	49​	54​	16​	119​	Mk. 6B or Mk. 5E​	Fulmen II or Mk. 5E​
7-8​	Supremacy​	30​	49​	12​	91​	Mk. 6B or Mk. 5E​	Fulmen II or Mk. 5E​
6-8​	Perseus​	18​	50​	13​	81​	AP-24 Pen or Pulsar 6​	AP-xx Penetration​
5-7​	Eon​	52​	22​	5​	79​	Mk. 5E or AP-30 Impact​	Fulmen II or AP-xx Impact​
4-7​	Pegasus​	43​	14​	22​	79​	Mk. 5B or AP-36 Impact​	AP-xx Impact​
4-6​	Spartacus​	48​	28​	0​	76​	Mk. 5E​	Fulmen II or Mk. 5E​
4-7​	Mayhem​	13.1​	43.8​	13.1​	70​	AP-24 Pen or Pulsar 6​	AP-xx Penetration​
4-6​	Hermes​	45​	23​	0​	68​	Mk. 6B or Mk. 5E​	Fulmen II or Mk. 5E​
4-7​	Lich​	2​	45​	14​	61​	AP-36 Penetration​	AP-xx Penetration​
3-6​	Holy​	15​	30​	10​	55​	Mk. 6A or AP-18 Pen​	AP-xx Penetration​

(Note that I am not recommending these armors, I only wish to show how they rank and compare and what plates you should probably use with them)

I didn't consider any Unlimited armors, but I can tell you there are several that work great for the lower Categories of Halloween Mayhem Annihilation, such as Ghost with Penetration plates, Adjusted Nemesis with Electric plates, etc...

What of I do it for the stamina?
