Grenades are something I haven't really used much in the event. I always think it's best to focus on shooting Shadows. But I'll definitely be trying some nade spam on the LZ now. 🙂
I agree with what you said, about Wattson and Caustic being fun. I've seen players putting Wattson's Perimiter Security fences up around the LZ to great effect. There are also some great spots at the Runoff LZ, where you can use Wattson's fences inside the buildings. It can take lot of ammo to defend in this situation, though. You often get a large queue of Shadows waiting for you to go outside your perimiter to the LZ and you have to keep picking them off. It's good fun. 🙂
Finally unlocked the 25 escapes badge. It feels good. There were ups. And a lot of downs. But I made it! So happy to get that out of the way. I can get pretty competitive at times. Now I can actually enjoy the game mode. My first round afterwards felt good. I didn't care if I won or lost. It was about enjoying the atmosphere and game play. Which I was. Now all that's left are the daily challenges for the Alternator skin. 🙂
P.S. My main was Wraith. Try to do all your killing in the first round. People are less likely to come back because they'll see all the other victims around. Afterwards it's all about stealth. Don't shoot unless it's a must. If you do, they'll be back and with friends. Wait for the evac ship to arrive while maintaining a distance. Then try and time it with whatever distance you think will get you there seconds after it shows. Not before. The shadows will be preoccupied with the others that beat the ship landing. When getting close use Dimensional rift. Hold off on using Voices from the Void as long as possible. If you use it too early, you might end up short and you'll be dead. After that, enjoy the ride and toss out some grenades for a parting gift. Hope this helps! 🙂
