AuthorLighter version of DW. Enemies are stronger, faster & deal more damage than Haz 5. Grabbers, leeches move slower & menaces shoot slower.

Chart editorThe easiest of Zeta's diffs (DL, DW, DP and DR), this difficulty is a great for pubbing as it keeps everything in vanilla and plays similarly to 6x2 but with some custom enemies added to the pool.

About tier T2

This tier features diffs with enemies that are tankier, faster and with higher damage than Hazard 5, together with faster wave and swarm timers and a lot more stationaries. 6x2 is considered the gold standard of modded difficulties for its good balance and this tier contains difficulties that play similarly to it, and although some contain new modded enemies and other "modern" features, they keep for the most part closer to the vanilla experience than the tiers that follow.
