I failed this mission for the first time in.....I can't remember the last time I failed this mission. The nerf to Wat's weapon tech is absolutely the reason why. This is extremely frustrating because it's obvious the nerfs did not compensate (in damage potential) what was taken away (in terms of ignoring defense). It's way out of balance now.
I experienced the same problem as you @lifeisagame007. Spy only hitting for a mere fraction of what was possible before and it's clearly not enough to get this mission done. My GBA is R7, Wat is R7, the rest are R5 and they got taken out like they were g7 in wave 4. This is an unacceptable change and some focused work needs to be done to bring this back into balance. I don't believe the intention here was to set us back and make these missions more difficult. We've invested in all these toons that were nerfed and they should be properly balanced to reflect our investment. I'm sure there's a way to compensate in damage what was taken away in ignoring defense. This needs to be implemented in the game asap.
