To set the story, I decided to go into Alaska for the first time, went with Finka. Got paired with great teammates, had the hardened nest modifier. We went through the first objective like it wasn't much (the scanning 3 areas).

But then we went to our second objective (shutdown), and this one that rejuvenates nests paired up with the modifier hardened nests was a lot more challenging than I thought. We only managed to plant one foam injector before both of my teammates went K.O, and I was the only one left with around 90 health or so, low on ammo, and an apex looking for its last target (me, duh).

The pressure was on, I hadn't felt like this before in a game like this. I didn't know what to do at first but my teammate said just finish the Objective, so I took his advice and did my best to add the last two injectors, I got the first one and headed back to OBJ to go plant it, I successfully did that but on my return to get another I was knocked.

And that's it, I died, end of story.
NAH! Got myself a lovely self-revive, I saw my teammate type "Nooo" but I managed to pull off the self-revive and got to get the last injector and planted it. With real low health, but less worried as the apex is now gone.

I ended up managing to get both K.O's and extract successfully because as a few fellow friends would say
LEAVE NO DWARF BEHIND (but this time operators)
I was honestly surprised that I managed to pull that off, the game definitely has blown my expectations and I hope to see it thrive as we move on. I said goodbye and said "gg" as I went to my next mission.

P.S Our last objective was Protean, I've only ever done Caution Level Proteans so I must wonder how Severe Level proteans are.

TL:DR
Started Alaska for the first time, chose Finka, one self-revive.
Breezed through the first objective but nearly failed at second due to the pure mix of hardened nests, apex, low health, low ammo, and both teammates going K.O
Just managed to get out of their with both K.O'd teammates + managed to complete second objective.

The higher difficulties really do require a lot of careful play and coordination!
