Mastery test 16 (Defense) seems a bit harder than what's shown in the video. For starters, it has a LOT more enemies that can spawn all around you right at the start so prepare for war from the get go. Glad practice mode exists. Through the practice runs and final successful qualify I did, the initial enemy amount is inconsistent. In one test I was surrounded by a lot of enemies from the very start (I could say between 15 to 20), half shooting at me and the other half shooting at the cryopod. In other runs they started pouring in at a slower rate. But all in all, be it at the start or midway through the wave you will have a crowded situation. You cannot use companions here but gear is available so you can drop ammo/life/energy restores. Of course, defense ready frames like Frost will shine here. Just make sure you make your snow globe able to withstand a lot of damage.

This is a Corpus-only test so bring magnetic which will be good against both shields and is neutral against robotics. Moas targetting the pod are a priority. I also had Toxin to kill Crewmen faster.
