- Eos and the "ambush" at Site 1 and this is where my troubles begin.
For this fight, the easiest way.. is don't leave the room. Put one guy on left and right of door. Sit at the back behind desks and wait for the kett to come to you. And just pick them off as they enter.. With the fiend. Get on roof above it, dodge it's attacks and kill it.

True. potentially the first "overwhelming" encounter in the game. Not sure if it is designed that way. but for me in my first playthrough this was the mission that tought me the importance of being mindful of your surroundings. Like going to rooftops, finding multiple covers (enemies from every direction), using the jetpack in combat. That sort of thing.

hahaha yeh.. using that "hover and fire mode" what a joke.. they just shoot you out of the sky.. it's great for distance shots from cover like a rock or something with sniper or close by to ambush 1-2 leftover units.. but not in the heat of the moment. Havarl is a nightmare as well, they just shoot you through the foilage.. you can't see the Roekaar. they are lethal, have to run to cover, peep, spot, peep, shoot a little.. lol. It's intence. But the straight on fights are great. In Insanity level. But you need to be real careful with rushing into combat.. died so many times charging in and getting the floor blown out from under me as I realised there's a dozen more Kett surrounding me that I didn't even know were there.
Don't know if the game is lagging somehow but they sometimes just don't show up as blips unless you have direct line of sight.

By the time I got to Havarl, I'd already crafted my sniper rifle and spec'd so that I could see thru walls when aiming. Those Roekaar were easy to spot thru the foliage ...and if they can see you thru them, means I can shoot them thru it too ...it's those invisible creatures that annoyed me more on that planet the first play thru
edit: those kett manage to blend in on almost every environment they are in, must be a product of their genetic engineering but yea, many times I've gotten killed on my first normal play thru because I rushed in and got surrounded by kett before I realized they were there
