I realize this isn't news to some people, but for those who don't already know (and i know many don't because i'm constantly telling my raid groups about this), running the lamp section with icebreaker is a HUGE help. You can turn around and no scope/quick scope into the crowd of thrall and it will destroy most if not all of them, not to mention you get the +2 Agility. Give it a try.
Edit:
MIDA sounds like another great weapon to use for this. Unfortunately though, i do not have that gun. So i can't try it out. :(

Edited by Steveo340: 4/9/2015 6:46:54 PMMida is amazing in the Abyss. If only I could quickly switch between Mida and IB! The thing with Mida is, most times I have to slow down so I don't activate a lamp too soon and to help out team mates by killing thrall. I like to equip Mida and a low ROF/high impact MG, like my Deviant Gravity (with field scout). That way I can switch from Mida to what is essentially a full auto scout rifle with much more impact and a way larger magazine when I need to quickly clean up some thrall. I also am thinking I should level up my Found Verdict and see how a full auto shotgun does at wiping out a pack of thrall (not looking forward to the reload part though). I can't wait to get my lvl 27 Hunter leveled up, to try the Abyss with my Mida and Don't Touch Me gauntlets.
