After hours of retries I've managed to get past all three "no mods" missions I dont have a will to try everything but heres my info/opinions: Important things to know: - Difficulty : "Dark Soul", I recommend go ahead and buy Grendel instead If you want an easy way , It's OK. I personally don't like this kind of challenge where too many restictions wihtout choices. - Weapons : most weapons are useless, the only thing that seems to work is melee heavy slam ( aim at enemy while airborne + heavy melee attack ) which knocks enemy groups down, Spam heavy melee slam all the way can kill most enemy. melee blocking also prevent 100% damage from the front. For Nullifiers, you can aim at him and slam to get past the bubble and hit him as usual. - Broken scepter : this melee weapon can pull out energy orbs from dead robot. there is very few energy orb in the mission so this is a good choice. - Revenant : his 1st skill is the most useful for crowd control, you can keep some thrall alive to divert enemy fire or kill a robot thrall and pull out the energy orb. Also can be use on strong enemy (Tech, Bursas) to buy you times. - Survival is the key : you only got few revives, the first priority is your own life, Keep moving, a grenade or ship's cannon can one-hit you, standing still in the killzone can be fatal. - Care your energy level : you will need to "pull orbs" often when you can, having some energy in reserve will give you an advantage when you are in a pinch - Defense mission tips : convert/ keep some robot thralls near the pod to divert enemy fires. run away or run to the cover when you hear the ship coming in, pull enrgy orbs from dead robot when you can , the strong enemy (Comba I think) will come at last wave so be prepared to slam a lot. - Survival mission tips : mostly the same as defense mission but you will need to stay near the capsule - Excavation mission tip : It's OK if the excavator blew up, you still get some progress but try to defend it as long as you can. The broken scepter can't pull orbs in this mission (bugs? another restrictions ? idk) So you need to limit your power usage, and in later waves the strong enemy will spawn, converting a Bursa to a thrall will help you a lot because the bursa usually can blow up the drill pretty fast. - Last Note :  these methods are not always work due to DE keeps changing the rules, Hope this helps

I [Hate] these missions (._.  )
