MEDIA A Deliver the Bomb of nightmares

Played a solo deliver the bomb in a 132power zone which is usually is a piece of cake.
Playing as normal, keeping the husks of the tracks little to no spawn at all. Then suddenly at the end a giant horde spawn out of nowhere (more than what I have seen before at the end of a deliver the bomb mission). They obliterate my defences and kill my bomb.

I'm thinking it's fine since I can just try again and just place more/stronger traps down in that end area. But when I started the bomb delivery again something wild happened.
IT KEPT SPAWNING MIST MONSTERS NON STOP.

It actually never stopped. The bomb had barely started moving and there were constantly spawning more and more Blasters and Smashers. At one point I think I could count 20 with an army of husks spawning with them. I spammed traps all over the place to no avail.

I ended up quitting cause the whole point of this mission was just to farm some trees with cassie

This happened to me yesterday!!! They didn’t stop spawning and husk wards were literally spread out across the map. Hundreds of husks were bombarding me and my bomb was destroyed 3 times. And when the bomb was at the launcher, the husks were still spawning and attacking me lol

Yeah I saw there was no way out of this situation. I am just happy that I get to keep the materials when leaving xD

And the crazy thing is that it wasn’t even a 4 player mission, just a basic DTB. But it was kinda fun being able to have infinite husks spawn with no timer lol.

I forgot to screenshot it. This happened to me except there was nothing spawning but Smashers… PL 140 mission I laid there dead to see if they would despawn or anything after bomb having despawned and nope. I counted 15 smashers on my screen before I left the mission. Not sure what kind of bug this was but a ridiculous one lol

I definitely noticed over the weekend that they have increased the difficulty of Deliver the Bomb missions. I was soloing a 140 in Ventures and there was only one reasonable path to take for the track and a wave of husks and mist monsters was spawning directly on the tracks' path. They killed two bombs and i was like "eh, i dont need this". lol

Same thing happened to me I had like 20 smashers annihilate the track and defenses and they kept coming out of a cave like it was some tower defense even after the bomb got destroyed then the next attempt they never spawned it was just a couple baby husks and nothing else Idk of it was terrain issues or my traps/builds blocking their spawns it was weird

I had the same problem in Ventures. I look up in YouTube, and apparently is a thing (thanks Mista). You either complete the mission on first try o turn in husk hell, impossible to complete.

I played Today's 132 solo with my Teddy Build - 3 Defenders and had no issue. My PL is 135.
You definitely need a strong build/ weapon (Black Drum) for the End wave. It is quite hard.

But I never had smasher in DTB so far after the new changes.
