Shadows CANT win: Dropship changes needed

I get that the idea is the legends are supposed to escape. I also get that some of the abilities give you advantage over the shadows. But please make it harder for the legends to get in the dropship! tyhe fact that there only needs to be one guy in the dropship for them to win is insane. You should need at least 5, if not more, and there should be some delay to get in, or the shadows can get in and kill you, so youre not totally safe until takeoff. Also, if you die after 10 left, you should still become a shadow.

  • Me too! I was in the circle on the ground and it didn't pick me up! I have only escaped twice now, in total. Once as Pathfinder, once as Mirage.

    Last night I completed the challenges except for "Escape 25 times", so I think I'm done with Shadowfall. It was a fun event, and I absolutely LOVED seeing King's Canyon at night, lit by the moon, the searchlights, the whole vibe, was awesome. But I actually feel weird (bad? sad?) killing Legends when I'm a Shadow, seems wrong!

    Back to World's Edge for me. 🙂

    I've been facing the opposite. Legends winning way too often. Mainly beacuse shadows are quitting.

    eVERY GAME i HAVE PLAYED TODAY, AT END THERE IS MAYBE 8-10 SHADOWS. Folks are just quitting now. Legends have won every game today. the mode has quickly become tedious. Need to change how things work. Shadows maybe some more health etc.

    Just had 2 shadow wins in a row. If the shadows work as a large squad it seems to go well.

  • Winning is easy just learn the rings/shop locations the ship may move slightly but is around the same area usually like by bunker its either right outside the doors or in the middle of the buildings same area just moves slightly octanes speed boost helps or mirage decoys and ult or wraiths portal etc all work well ult ship as bangalore and smoke it and just run even caustic and wattson work really well

  • Winning as shadow gives no benefit tbh unless you havn’t got devotion skin yet but its possible to win just gotta push hard as zombie we barely won earlier only won because i knocked a wraith and pathfinder before they got on the ship lol

    Bump for great justice.  All you have to do is get into the circle under the drop ship, then you're magically up IN the ship and shadows CANNOT jump up in it!  Period.  So one guy in 'invincible mode' inside the ship >>>> 100+ shadows.  Combine that with the fact that most of the time when someone becomes a shadow they drop like a little * and BAM you've got 10 legends on 9 shadows and once ONE of those legends makes it to the circle it is game over shadows.  I actually was coming here to suggest that they change the end game to where as soon as one legend makes it into the ship they just give the win to the shadows as I have NEVER EVER EVER seen shadows dislodge a single legend from that ship once they're in there.  Combine that with the fact that once they're in there they just kill all the shadows trying to protect the circle and the rest of the living legends get to the ship with ease.

  • This new event is totally unbalanced (from shadow perspective). When you land it makes you bounce from the ground and by that time you already are dead, you are supposed to be faster than champions but what's the point if your hitting animation takes ages compared to gun etc. If not the challanges this game mode is useles. I am using it just to warm up for regular matches.
