The Rifleman and the Mad Bomber missions are just too hard.

I have played these two till my ears are bleeding and I can't get em done. Thanks Bungie for listening to those streamers when they told you everyone wanted things harder, I don't mind a little harder but this is just plain nuts.

  • Rifleman was easy when you find the perfect hiding spot. Just kill all the projections (even cross map with an AR one shots them) and then unload a few sniper/ scout bullets to his face. Kill adds [b]and[/b] projections when they spawn, then voilà! Mad Bomber required more strategic positioning (avoid staying close to walls because of the bombs’ splash damage) the use of defensive tools such as rift, invisibility and barriers were crucial for defusing bombs. The very last bomb after you defeated him was incredibly difficult. I suggest keeping a super once your are at about 50-65% of the defusing process. Overall Barons were challenging but not too hard once you figure out each of their weaknesses. Try to at least be on the same power level though.

    • Overlevel to 50/500 and use a 100rpm shotgun. Nail the Bomber with all 7 or 8 rounds to make him disappear. Then stay alert when disarming the bombs so you dont get caught off guard. Use Super on adds, dont bother using it on the Bomber. The B bomb is the toughest. Avoid the exploding enemies. Throw down grenades then move. You have to get a little sweaty, but it's not bad. The Rifleman, take out all/most of his copies then shotgun and heavy him. He goes down pretty quickly.

      • Bro I'm sorry but I solod the whole campaign and probably didn't wipe once. Even though I'm decent at the game, being able to solo the whole campaign with relative ease when destiny is pretty much a multilayer game means that it is not that hard. If I had a team of 3 I could probs play the campaign with my feet Sorry to sound arrogant, but go on the fireteam finder and post asking for peeps to run the campaign with you? Every single time I've needed help with something I've pretty much been able to find someone on here to run it with. Get better or make friends, bungie does not need to change a thing.

        • Try finding someone else to do them with. The entire story is 1000x easier with even one other person

          • I can’t get past the guy with the mines. So it looks like I won’t finish the campaign. However, if I don’t, it’s not that big of a deal, because I’m not a big fan of what I’ve done so far in Foreskin. But I hope everybody else enjoys it.

            • I love how no matter what it is everything winds right back around to being “the streamers” fault. Because they are the only ones who who give feedback when it comes to this game right?

              • There is about 25 - 30 people here that think they are not too hard we have yet to hear from the majority of players.

                  I did them at below 400 light. Got my Blam! handed to me a few times, but that's what's fun about it to me. People wanted something to work towards, bungie (more-or-less) provided, in a few ways. Try doing some more of Spider's easier bounties and trying again?

                    So this might be stuff you're already know, but there are some things to deal with in these missions. First, be overleveled if you can -- you can do public events and generally run around shooting the bad guys, doing side missions, etc. When you're underpowered, you take more damage and deal less damage. It's a painful proposition, and it makes things harder on you than they need to be. In the Mad Bomber mission, defusing the mines is the part that cost me lives. But after doing it a few times you should see some patterns. In the first sequence where you're defusing mines outside, you have enough time to move from mine to mine, even solo, because the timer [i]halts[/i] when you are defusing. So don't panic and run in; prep the area first with grenades or whatever. In the boss fight, take your time and make sure your aim is good when shooting the scuttlers. They're the biggest danger when you're more or less stuck near the mines (however, you can leave the mine area to stay alive if you have to). For the rifleman, stay mobile, and kill the decoys ASAP. They can hurt you (took me one death to even realize they could hurt me!), and whittle away at the real rifleman. Just make sure to clear adds so you don't end up on fire [i]and[/i] running from a dozen decoys. Finally, don't save your super. Use it if you need to clear yourself some space. Grenades too. Also, at least in the Mad Bomber mission, there are Cabal interceptors that are available -- you can boost to jump between the pieces of solid ground, and you can use them to clear out adds near the mines.

                    • Very far from a streamer and didn't think they were too hard at all? Maybe you're just under levelled, If you need a hand and you're on PS4 I'm more than happy to help out!

                      • Patience and adaptability. Also focus on adds. They kill me more than the boss
