AuthorPubbable cave madness with a few mission type overhauls and exciting twists.

Chart editorA more recent take on ND pacing, this difficulty loves to spawn high HP threats such as praetorians, oppressors and lots of sentinels during swarms. Because of that, it is noticeably harder in mission types that involve tunnels (looking at you, Crystaline Caverns deep scan) and when making cramped holds with no space to kite. The diff also has some original wavespawners that can surprise you in some missions, like deep scan and sabo. The author has an easier diff, Myriad Mini, In T2.

About tier T4

Introduction to cave madness. This tier is similar to the previous one but the difficulty picks up following the theme of faster waves, the introduction of new modded enemies and possibly higher scalings (ie. Hazard 7 resistances and damage). The pacing starts to be quite important and almost all difficulties listed here contain wavespawners, higher nitra costs and other tricks to force it.
