Mission: The Aquarium

Dive into the murky depths of 'The Aquarium,' a mission that presents unique environmental challenges and a relentless onslaught of enemies. This mission often takes place in flooded sections of Tertium, featuring submerged pathways, decaying infrastructure, and limited visibility. Expect to face a mix of aquatic-themed threats and standard heretic forces. Early encounters will likely involve Poxwalkers and Dreg infantry, often emerging from the water or from hidden alcoves. As you progress, the mission introduces more specialized enemies, such as Trappers who can ensnare your squad from a distance, and potentially mutated creatures adapted to the aquatic environment. Visibility can be a sificant factor, so characters with abilities that enhance perception or provide illumination are highly beneficial. Objective phases may require navigating through hazardous water or activating submerged consoles, which can leave your squad vulnerable. Prioritize clearing immediate threats before attempting to interact with objectives, and utilize any available elevated positions for a tactical advantage. Characters with strong ranged capabilities are essential for dealing with enemies that can attack from afar, while melee specialists can hold their ground against aggressive pushes. Effective use of grenades and tactical abilities to clear areas of dense enemy presence is key to success.
