Is this even fair?

So I've made it past Chapter 3 in the Thunder Struck difficulty thus far. But gosh. Whoever thought of placing the Life Transfer mod in Chapter 4 is horrible. Basically in order to match the damage output needed to counter said mod. You'll basically need R4 5*s at the very least. While some of us who are attempting to go through it with 4* R5s bots (Like I Did) will still ultimately lose a lot of their bots before even reaching the boss. It's either you have to keep trying or spend some energon on revives.

Oh golly gosh

Thank @Inqosly and @LukeConnerton 😂

That’s how it is designed, to suck energon out of you. Who said you can get thundercraker for free???????

@VectorSierraXÎX
You can’t even pass chapter 1, what do you want? Just quit mission.
Chapter 3 might be way harder

Btw, 8000 5 star crystal is also not free for grab.

I already give up

I believe there is only one chapter per difficulty level.

I actually just made a post about how I got Thundercracker for free already.

My Sig 85 motormaster was basically immortal.
He didn't loose the melee buffs after he healed past the percentages either

Manthro

Yeah.... That path is not difficult, stop and think what the best bots are.

I ran through every bot with ease using Jetfire, except for Megatron, which required more of a team effort.

Basically, endless combos and healing by utilizing his stun block.

Was people panicking over this mod? I haven't seen it yet.
Is it different than Grimlock's on RoTK?

Also...

Was using a 4* max forged JF, not even a 5*.

So it can be done.

Healing bots aren't always the best choice for this mod. You want bots with the highest potential damage output, like Tantrum, Primal, WB etc.

They will heal you more than healers will.

Also, try and avoid using S3. You lose health due to the animation.

Exceptions to this rule are S3 healers like Dinobot and KB. you get to double down on heal with these ones.

Sounds cool, I should try that.

I understand difficult. But I agree with some of the others. the 4th round (in the third "story line"), is a cheat. the Reflect and Life Transfer are BS, on top of the other two upgrades. Every Attack is reflected. Using a bot that is 2k stronger.. and he Still slaughtered me before I got him down to half point. I normally don't "whine" because I understand that the game shouldn't be easy. But this is beyond that.

Actually Inquosly who proposed the mod made a video clearing the whole map with just a 4 star 5/5 Tantrum, no forge levels and no one else in the team for synergies.

You can watch it here.
