The drones are only available for the first little bit of the wave. If you wait too long to find and shoot them, they disappear.

Yeah but i literally ran to the outside one, after shooting the first one at the start of the stage, and it wasn't there. Apologies for not being clear about the timing.
-
Would you mind sharing a screenshot or a video of where you're looking for it?
-
Drone's there, but was too busy getting shot at to adjust the contrast. Should note, i destroyed this one and the other drone shortly became unavailable (like within five seconds).
-
Both drones need to be taken out in order to activate Max Temper. The timer is on both of them, so even if you blow up one, the other is still counting down to disappear.
-
I understand. I activate max temper all the time. However, maybe from lag, instead of having at least a minute to get both, i literally need someone else to get the other drone to make it in time (talking five second window here from first drone being taken out). This wasn't a problem with either Gofannon or Iz'.

Edited by ADragonWithin: 10/21/2019 6:24:35 AMAll drones are destroyable solo; I've done so myself. I can't help but think maybe you're standing in the wrong location or trying to run around too much in order to take them both out. They disappear a few seconds after Phase 2 begins, so if you spend too long before you take them both out, you'll run out of time to do so. Here's a video I just made in order to show where I go in order to do so for for the one you're talking about: https://guardian.theater/activity/4956378469 It is working, you can see I literally just did it.

So here's from start of stage two to when i verify the drone is no longer there. While i did die trying to destroy the inside drone, the delay from death shouldn't have been an issue.
-
Yes, the delay of death was an issue. I'm not sure why you think it wasn't when it pushed you past the time that the drones are available. Your first shot didn't kill the second drone. As I stated before, the drones have a time limit. The time it took you to get to the first drone you decided to go after was about 10 seconds or so. The time you spent running across the map to get right next to the one you could have shot from where you were took longer, and your death took longer still. By the time you revived, the timer had passed and the second drone had disappeared as normal and intended. You stated before that it seemed like 5 seconds. Your video shows that they were there for the full available time, so I'm not sure what issue you feel you're having. Out of curiosity why did you run all the way across the map when you could have shot it from where you stood after shooting the other one? Why did you not start Round 2 already in a position where you could have shot one of them? You used up a lot of the time they're there running around.
-
Bleh, gotta concede. The timing's 30 seconds. The other forges have either drones close together or a clearer line of sight it _seems_ so wasn't expecting to fail getting the temper going since i was b-lining it. Why not shoot afar? I have poor vision and i don't wanna get new glasses. 😂 I've got ranks to earn! duhh... 😁

I know it might be a bit late now, but something you may want to look into when specifically doing things that require long range along with poor eyesight (I'm nearsighted myself but have glasses that mostly bring it up to par), is to have a sniper rifle ready that you're comfortable with using (look for the long zooms, not medium or short). That way you can aim and the zoomed image will make it much easier to see. It won't really help in much of a real firefight, but for something like these drones, targets (like crystals and the like), or long distance headshots for enemies concentrating on someone else, it'll work great. Good luck, Guardian!
-
Thanks. It's probably an issue with lag then because i do solo drone destruction often. And i'm literally going directly from one location to another, ignoring enemies as i go. I still have some 'logs left so i'll try recording what i'm seeing since the five seconds is pretty unbelievable.
