I was able to do the same thing with the challenge mission "Containing the Dead" with the Prison challenge. Just close two of the doors and camp out. I used two shooters and a hunter. Just kept grinding to the point before I developed carpel tunnel syndrome by pressing the end turn and FF buttons. I was even calculating the XP per hour I was generating. Ahhhh, the benefits of having nothing to watch on TV that day.
@zoson Im to tired, on nightmare mode 7.4, so 8pm-130am so 5.5hrs 5576 so about 1000 an hour, so it will take about 8hrs in nightmare to get 8000 something
I can't farm, I just see any fun in standing still and taking target practice. Without the surprises and the searching for the objective it would just be a mundane game. I have the patience to wait for a spawn if they're spawning on the next turn. I'm not waiting for several turns
That's awesome! How much does the number of heads impact performance?
Yes the heads slow thing, it runs smoothly for around 80 blows, so around 250 heads then performance drops considerably. A reboot is all that's needed. Don't know if it makes a difference but I move my hunters out of there overwatch position at top bin to exit before reboot as it seems to contact the server that way, saving my progress.
Looking forward to nightmare. I saw you bagging 9.3 on another thread maybe you will come around, I find 7.4 far more boring.
I hope the developers don't see this activity as an exploit as its hard work and some of us are just not cashed up to keep spending real money. I give them what I can because they work hard, just wish they could be more smart with add revenue. Don't know what NG makes from gaming adds but think they need to target adds like Google does. Then they could be a little more generous with I game costs.
@zoson Yea if i put in the same amount of time as you xp wouldve been crazy, baby steps, first time around an hour, second time 5.5hrs, third time idk, a week?
@manicorn, yes flee, you get the xp but one of your survivors takes heavy injury, that way you can do it over and over and make a lot of xp to upgrade your survivors
There is a good one in the weekly challenge this week. Opposing Forces - I think it was. There is no body pile so it takes longer - just don't open the gates. Take lots of noise makers. If you end up opening the gates you can close them back but then you are stuck so you will have to sacrifice a star to leave the mission.
@i8azmbe I'm working my way back to 7-4. It's in nightmare mode now. Gonna take a while.
