From today's SToG, it stated that there would be "threat scaling" as one progresses up the summit and that more elite and named enemies would be encountered.
Is this the only increase in difficulty? Or will the enemies become more "tanky" as well?
Would certainly prefer not to have to deal with enemies even more tanky than they already are, but just want an idea of what to expect with the change.
External link →We’re gonna have to wait and see but I don’t expect an increase in tankiness. My guess is the lower floors will favor more reds and purples and as you go higher, number of elite spawns will gradually increase.
That added to the additional lieutenant squads and bosses will increase the challenge you face at the higher floors but NPC toughness wise, level 10 legendary elite will probably have the same health and armor as level 90 elite.
They may also increase the rate of spawn for exotic fire teams at higher floors. I could be wrong, too early to tell.
This is a good summation of what the higher threat will mean for The Summit. In essence, a Legendary floor 99 will have more enemy elements to deal with than a Legendary floor 9. Even if they're all still Legendary difficulty enemies.
