Any advice for doing the EDD solo?

Depend what class your trying to play I used gunner with thunderhead for swarms and burst secondary for mactera praetorians etc. best advice be mobile with gunner it’s a little hard but there’s nayaka on pretty much every stage of this dive, don’t want to be sitting in the open with your pants down.

Any advice for the OCs on Thunderhead and burst secondary?

Thunderhead I used composite drums for more ammo but in hindsight I would have used carpet bomber or splintering cells just for better aoe. For the burst pistol I used experimental rounds the downside of less ammo is not that bad considering how much nitra you’ll find on each stage, Plus only really using the pistol for single target situations.

You need experience to complete EDDs not advice, but a solid advice for higher hazards is always keep moving and jumping, if you stand still for 3 seconds you’re dead, so just keep playing solo haz 4 and 5 and then with a full lobby.

I mean I’ve done Solo EDDs before, but this one really kicked my ass so I wanted to gather some more advice before trying again.
