With the dogs is that you need people to know where they are going so if you call trees, rocks etc. or even when you go for a damage phase how to get to their dogs. The problem is that if you're running around on the floor it is hard to see and so can be hard to know where you're going at first.
A few tips though;
- Once you have killed the stuff in the room, the next part of the fight doesn't start until you pick up the crystals and so gives people time to walk around getting a little familiar with the layout.
- If you're on the floor stick together in a group, hopefully at least one person on the floor knows the arena well enough.
- Those who are up top with the crystals will be directing and can, if need be, use the crystals laser thing as a pointer to mark a 'go here'
- Don't kill the dogs! This is important, once you kill a dog the timer is much shorter so you are best getting them all weak then killing them all in the same round.
The mechanics of the fight are;
- You split up in to 2 groups, 2 stay up top with the crystals and take left flowers or right flowers and use the light things to charge the crystals
- The group of 4 run around in a group on the floor collecting the pollen buff without being seen by the dogs
- 2 of the 6 flowers will glow which the 4 on the ground have to get to and once there one of the people with crystal shoot the flower to give the buff
- After this 2 yellow bars spawn (I think Centurions) which those with the crystals will need to kill
- Repeat this with the next flowers to increase your damage buff
- Damage the dogs and then run back to centre room (not sure exactly how much time you have)
The way I did it was following the above;
- Assign a dog to each player, the ones up top are best getting the furthest away ones.
- Aim to collect a x24 or x36 buff (2 or 3 flowers) then go to designated dog and damage it. Best bet for damage is throw a grenade them super, swords or the exotic fusion rifle (I forgot its name) but importantly don't kill your dog!
- Run back to the centre room to begin round 2 of the fight. You have a bit of time here so you can discuss damage done to your dog.
- If you have them all low enough, to the same as above then kill all 6 dogs, if not repeat as a damage phase again then on the 3rd round kill the dogs.
I believe you can one phase it but you need a high buff, I think x 60, so you need to get 5 flowers which is difficult.
