Quick Guide to Large Groups of Minoris Enemies
By It Be Ritzy.
I’ve noticed a theme of people getting overwhelmed or wittled down to 0 hp by large groups of minoris. For example I can be playing sniper and my brothers are tactical & vanguard. A massive wave spawns and I quickly notice my brothers are rolling all over the shop doing dash attacks to get gunstrikes off to regen lost armor.
Here is how I deal with them and lose 0 hp:
- Stay calm
- Don’t move beyond strategic positioning, why are you rolling brother? Just ensure there aren’t any minoris at your back. The nids will peck your behind as you leave the roll animation aswell. Don’t move more than you have to.
- Be patient and wait for them to try and attack you, let them be the aggressors for the most part and if you decide to swing your melee weapon be ready to cancel it with a parry instead!
- Parry ALL of their attacks (multiple minoris can leap at you at once, you can parry all of them with a single parry input if they are attacking you in synch however, be ready to hit that parry button again immediately as more minoris can attack you as you’re performing and finishing the animation. You also knock a bunch of them back and instantly kill any minoris you parry.
If they are large enough in numbers you can spam the parry button with a fencing weapon and be fine although I would’nt suggest this as it will hurt your performance in the long run.
TLDR
Stop running/rolling away from groups of minoris when they’re attacking you. Stand your ground, be patient & parry those suckers. Don’t let them sit at your back, keep them in front of you.
Do this and you will survive. A great place to try this and get the hang of it, is in the zone capture trials.
