The champions need to go. I’m boycotting any activity that includes them. These things are the most offensive example of bullet sponges.
Edit: Example: Barrier Champion: put a ton of bullets in them until their shield pops. Then shoot down their shield while they are still shooting you, then finish off their health bar.
If you don’t have the right mods, they heal to full health and even with the right mods they can still get a second shield phase to break. Literally a bullet sponge.
Swords: Almost everyone I’ve seen rush a Champion with a sword has died. Some situations you cannot rush with a sword without clearing the entire area first.
We need special weapon mods. Tired of running dual primaries to make sure the angles are covered.

How about, stop using an auto rifle to do damage? Use a burst damage weapon like a Grenade launcher or a sniper to do a chunk first and force the barrier up, then disable the barrier with your anti barrier (things like GM/M nightfalls may require 2-3 anti barrier users depending on what you’re using), once it’s disabled go back to your burst damage weapon to finish it off.
