Please help me with the miner bots =) I have Neme + 6a, and that ain't much for help, about 40ish hits from most generations. =) Not much help tho =/ But wish to know what to wear in protection from these nasty bots/machines =)
Ghost with 5B worked well against the miners, but then left me vulnerable to the drones that are all around. The last test I did was Ghost+6A.
I could manage both drones and mid-level miners with some serious FAP-ing.
The new mob combinations will, I think, require some real teamwork strategies, and re-thinking of loot distributions, to be really effective.
A team comprised of some wearing Vigi + 6A, or the like to take on the drones, and some wearing good impact gear (like Ghost + 5B), to attack the miners, and a FAPer or two, with a loot distribution that does not rely on amount of damage per player, would be very effective, and beneficial to all team members.
Similar strategies with the other mob combos can be worked out.
As EU evolves, I think teamwork, strategy and tactics will come into play more that the individual point and shoot model that has served OK, until now.
To just run into a herd and flail, willy-nilly, everyone out for their own share of the loot, works well, with a bunch of low level mobs, and you can play fast and loose with even mid level, with the right armor, but with the mixes that are beginning to show up, that sort of tactic may need to be abandoned, to be successful.
