Strike 1

Wave 3: Replace rapid soldiers with rapid demos, and vice versa. Reduce the amount of snipers spawning to 2-3, 6 is overkill (keep the waitbetween the same)

wave 4: give tank subwave more firepower to help push and distinguish it from the rest of the wave, make gheavies non-deflector.

wave 5: the first subwave completely shuts down any close range classes + soldier due to the heavy spam (not to mention the airblast), it's really annoying to deal with.

wave 6-7: the crits on the w6 bowmen feel wierd when the final wave doesn't have any at all. Make pyros and soldiers in final subwave support limited.

Class Comp: Scout, Soldier,  Demoman, Pyro

Overall it was okay, there were some bumps here and there but for the most part it was a good sailing until the finale of a storm kicked in.

General

- Certain subwaves overall on the mission really wouldn't need a WaitForAllDead. you can try and test and experiment can use a WaitForAllSpawned instead, since sometimes we were just waiting for the bots to come to us and kill them instead.


W3

- The Support Heavies should spawn slightly slower in between, since they begin to stack up relatively quickly as a whole


W7

- Overall overwhelming in the last subwave. 8 SpawnCount (16 MaxActive) support scouts that are also hard AI tear stuff apart real fast. Cutting the spawncount and maxactive should be sufficient enough so that they won't be the main threat of that subwave

- The Brass Beasts with AlwaysCrit despite their blue eye change still sting a hefty ton, and 70% damage bonus on top of that is nothing to scoff at (not to mention the insane knockback they possess due to those two things mixed with each other). Changing them to regular Giant Heavies (or maybe even Deflectors) should be fine enough (though you can also remove their AlwaysCrit too even)

- Two medics on each Giant Brass Heavy is quite a fright, especially when they spawn at a decent pace in between with each other. Removing 1 medic per set should be fine as is.
