Still need someone else to do 3 rounds with while I sit around guarding the point or vice versa, pretty tough when you're this late to the nightwave thing.

I did mine with pubs when the objective was fresh, something you probably can't do now that people queuing for random index matches no longer need that nightwave.

The party was pretty standard, two Rhinos, two Mesa. The objective itself was straightforward, just keep one Mesa by the point and let the others roam around killing stuff. If a Mesa did murder, they marked the points and a Rhino grabbed it. Basically exactly like normal index, but with a little care.

EDIT: I was "the one Mesa by the point", but TBH I didn't really stay on the point, just in the general area so I could get there in a hurry in case a Rhino died or something. I stayed on that half of the map basically.

It's really not. Just go into a public match with a frame that can defend the friendly point and you'll be fine as long as you don't do high-risk (since people usually only go one or two rotations there). Index is always populated at least a little bit.

Not around NZ sadly, it's usually empty aside from the occasional Rhino in high risk.

Go into gameplay settings and change your region to a more populated one. You'll probably need to increase your ping limit and play around the edges of your normal time, but it'll get the job done.

Requirements are MR 14+ & 350h+ in game (not Steam) hours.

I had a check, and there's nearly a 900 hour difference between my ingame and steam played time.

Pretty sure steam counts time time spent updating the game (the launcher) but that's still a pretty huge difference

Ingame time counter goes up only in missions.

In-game counter is only mission time. Steam counts all time that the game is active.

I forgot to ask... before melee 3.0 you used to be able to channel your melee attacks to trigger things like life strike... but how do you activate it after they removed that? I still see lots of mods that reference channeling and I don't see a button to channel in my keybinds.

E: Nevermind I found it. Apparently the melee channel button is... the same button as my melee? Why? It doesn't even work form what I can tell if it's set up like that.... Oh, it's also a toggle now

For those who have not finished the nightwave.

Season 2 ends on Oct 13.

Atlas, Tekko, and Dethcube (With Deth Machine Rifle) Primes are coming on Oct 1st.

It also sounds like they will be discussing the state of Ember and Vauban during the Devstream on Oct 4.

And here I am, not received the Monkey Prime Neuroptics (common drop, my god!) from all my 10 (yeah, right, TEN!) Axi G2 relics. I give up. RNG is killing me.

Expected relics opened to get one is ~6 (90% chance of getting at least one), to have a 99% chance to get at least one you need to crack 13.

RNG can be that way sometimes.
