The reworked Raptor fight will be a pain for players who are undergeared. Firstly, forget trying to cheese it with a stealth frame. If you're invisible, the raptors will sit in invulnerable mode until you drop out of stealth. I recommend taking a frame that can absorb some punishment, because you will be taking some serious damage if you get hit. Nezha and Rhino work well because you can quickly reapply warding halo/iron skin when it gets blown off. You can exit the arena room if you need to get some cover and recharge shields/energy. Use a hard-hitting weapon with good range. Vaykor Hek worked well for me, but you also need to kill the raptors near the conveyor silos otherwise you will not have enough time to pick-up and drop the bombs. The timer feels way too short because it starts ticking the moment the raptor drops it. Press 'F' to switch weapons to drop the bomb down the converyor silo. Also be aware that after you pick up the bomb and then drop it, you'll still be holding your secondary as your active weapon (assuming you were using your primary before you picked up the bomb). Very annoying. The raptors' AOE attacks make taking cover somewhat useless so you have to stay mobile. One strategy is to snipe them from a safe distance and then move in closer to the conveyors and finish them off there. Overall, the fight is more interesting that the original, but it's still quite a poorly designed boss fight that will frustrate players without decent gear or experience.
