Is it true that the no aggro method at the gates no longer works?

    it sort of does. be careful though if you don't complete the first part you don't get credit if your 'pulled' down, at least at the moment. seems to be a bug, maybe

    I did the cure on Friday (fed) and Saturday (kdf) and was successfull both times.
    Both times, the non-agroing of the elites is what worked.

    On Saturday their was lag so i had to hit "fire" about 3 times to get it to shoot once. That caused problems because I thought I was LOS so I would pivot around and agro the entire zone.

    Finsihed it Saturday as well, and the non-agroing worked. What a pain in the TRIBBLE.

    Thanks for all the answers, I got into some groups last night and they kept insisting that it no longer worked. I was pretty sure it did, now next time someone says it doesn't I can link to this.


    You made my day.

    Yeah, you need the right group to pull off the non-aggro tactic. That's probablly why they kept saying it wasn't working. Just takes 1 mistake to ruin the whole strategy.

    yeah, one mistake wipes everyone.
    1) You need to stay 20-23 meters away from the transformer.
    2) You need to out of agro range of the elites (one wipe should allow people to be better at positioning themselves)
    3) No Tac teams or drones

    Best thing to do to kill the workers, the sniper rifle, and the HDD rifle.
    You use the big HDD move, then switch to the rifle and switch back to HDD.

    As a Tac, use grenades as well. As a Sci, there is two knockback things you can do. As an eng, put those phaser and granade launching things in a place that won't agro the elites.

    But yes, one bad team member will kill you all.

    To me as a Sci I found the Stasis and Gas kit worked nicely with the 4-nodes. Especially in delaying the workers heading to 2.

    With the first one you can hide behind the tree (and won't aggro the 3rd group) and the second, you can safely stand on the rocks.
