be familiar with 'regular' LoR first, and by that i mean know it inside and out. NM LoR can best be summed up as LoR with no room for error. if you don't know exactly where you need to be and what you need to do during every part of the mission, including pad locations, when to use each ability and why you're using it, and at least some of the associated tricks to make life easier, you need more practice. note that if the squad's using discord or teamspeak there's a little more wiggle room as you can be actively coached on what to do.

know the proper use of every frame and build that is typically used on LoR. EV Trinity, Bless Trinity, Slow Nova, Bastille/Vortex Vauban, Carrying/Decoying Loki, CC Rhino, Speed/CC Volt, Blinding Mirage. and be a team player. LoR NM is not the place to 'prove you're awesome' or be a one-man show. no one person can carry a team through this. if possible, tackle your first Nightmare LoR with people you've done regular LoR with, rather than pugs. when setting up loadouts, it's okay to have a preference on frame - if you're really good with Vauban for example, let people know that's your strong suit. most of the time you'll be able to take your preference, but be ready and able to take other roles if needed.

pay attention to what's going on in chat. if someone is out of line, arguing about their role, acting selfishly or just generally griefing, break the cell and reform, minus the disruptive player. you are better off down one person than having a loose cannon that can single handedly instafail the mission. the same goes for liars. in most cases i personally have no trouble with new or less experienced players provided they admit to it. i'll usually offer to invite them to discord so i can make sure any questions they have can be answered without having to stop and type, or to walk them through any parts they don't know. however someone lying and saying they've done it a ton when they've never done it at all is an instant red flag. resources like wf.christx.tw exist for a reason; use them (but don't abuse them, please)

good luck and may the Arcane Grace be with you
