LX Ultra

T6CD2

AuthorBasically FC + LX + some new enemies. Should be a bit harder than FC while still being reasonable.

Chart editorThis difficulty has the same base as FC minus the chances of instant swarms, some enemies removed (sharks, harvesters, big bulk on certain missions) and the mechanics from LX Revamped (T5): constant dreadnought spawns on a set timer and a recurrent phasebomb spawner. The difficulty will feel like a harder LX and bringing some weapon to kill the dreadnoughts quickly is advised, although they are ignitable so VB will also work.

These difficulties push the pacing requirement to the limit, with high nitra costs and dangerous constant wavespawners of many kinds of enemies. You will need very good fundamentals and coordination to beat these without bunkering. All mission types have been beaten with fire comp for all entries in this tier.
