    Seems allot like director bot in slouch, tons of effort with a crap reward 99% of the time. You get more good drops farming the first three levels, since you can blow through them in about 5 minutes each.

    First off well done completing SY5 boss with 2 players!

    Though this brings to mind some other unanswered questions/views.

    How long did this take you? How many Stim and PPs did you both use? What was the outcome from this? (Any Epic Drops)

    Though this would most probably take 5-10+ mins to complete with one Op and Com, due to so many minions spawning, and the amount of dmg being made which couldn't surpass that of a group.

    Used to run Solo alot! and in Numa kill farming for LB I personally found that the drops were 'Trash Items' not once did I get a green in 10k+ kills (not even a Rusty Pistol etc). Though when a guild member popped on to greet me and help with heals we would both start to get Rare (Green) drops regular. Have a sneak suspicion that the 'power that be' lowered the drop rates for Solo and hightened them for groups, so that we will run in groups to farm as SL is team based, No 'I' in 'TEAM' so to speak.

    Also the thread is to help groups to take down this boss in the most effective way, unsure how this would fit in, that said still have to commend you on taking him down with two players
    I should have been more clear, sorry. There were 2 engineers in the group along with the commando and operative. My point is that you do not need to have 2 commandos or 2-3 operatives in the team. As Jazzblue mentioned, his team was able to defeat the boss with 1 commando and 4 engineers which is a harder feat (I know since I was on such a team last night). All you need really is at least 1 player who can prevent the boss and minions from using the console.

    I just get a bit frustrated when I get on a PUG and they ask me to leave to the room (the impolite ones just boot me) to make room for an extra operative.

    If you are in a team, then you will definitely get more quality drops. Correction, the team will get more quality drops. I do not believe that the developers increases the probability of getting quality drops if the team has more than 1 member. Its just that the system rolls the probability dice for each member of the team. The more members of the team, the more the probability dice is rolled. The more that the probability dice is rolled then the team will have more chances to earn a quality drop.

    In case anybody hasn't noticed, there are 6 barrels on the sides of the room (3 on each side). Each time a mob or the boss successfully types into the terminal one of the barrels explodes. When the last barrel explodes, that is when the reactor blows and an instant party wipe occurs.

    I seem to remember some cancelling out between my gravity well and singularity (comm), and lurch (op?) been awhile since I went back to mysterious figure but I remember a class besides com has a move that would cancel out my sing, or well if they did it at the same time. I can't begin to tell you how many barrels i've lost from that! Lol

    Your skills have no friendly fire so they shouldn't be effecting your team's skills.
    I am pretty sure only engineer can buff you besides yourself too lol.
    Operatives can use Lurch yes the most powerful push in the game,
    and ops can use psychic lash to stun mf similar to engineers pain but not as long.

    Art is right. There's no such thing as friendly fire in pve. It must've been a bug. Also its so annoying when you lose those dang barrels!

    I'd like to add that quick engineers can also stun the mobs if you see them start running towards the console. Once they're at the console I'm not sure if the stun works, but it'll definitely stop them from getting there (although they do run pretty fast).
