diff setting for bosses solo?

I have a mission from Scirocco in the Shadow Shards, and I want to spawn Overseers for the badge, but I can't figure out how to get them to show up.

Increase spawn size to a certain amount, or increase difficulty, or both? Since this is a Corr, I don't have the toughness to duke it out with high level mobs toe-to-toe

Tell the fortunata that you want bosses. Then increase the spawn size. Level of enemies doesn't matter.

I did that, and reset the mission and went back in - no Overseers anywhere. I then increased the mob size to +4 while reducing the diff to -1. I got larger spawns with a couple of lieutenants per spawn, but again no bosses. I'm going to increase the spawn size to +8 just to see if that's what it takes.

Set your difficulty to:

Enemies spawn at -1 level.
I am as good as or better than 6 (or more) heroes/villains.
I do not want to fight bosses.

The -1 level is just to make it easier on you. If you want, set it to 0 or higher. It's totally up to you.

You can get bosses at fewer than 6, but not reliably. Setting it to 8 will make 1-2 show up in almost all normal spawns.

The boss-class mobs will ALWAYS show up when the spawning rules dictate. Telling the fortunata/field rep that you don't want bosses will make it so that they still show up, but scale down to lieutenants. For squishies, this is by far the most important setting.

And if all else fails, find a friend or two to help.

Thx Rod - this was exactly what I was looking for. Muy Squishee.


I had to set the mob amount to 8 to get 'bosses'.
Unfortunately it didn't work out too well. Just too squishy to take on the mobs that the Overseers appeared in, and I died almost instantly.

If you're after the weapons, just finishing one of Technician Naylor's arcs will give you those.

Otherwise, yeah, what the others have said.

I farmed last mission of "Alone in the Darque" arc for overseers. Setting it for 8x gives 25-35 overseers per map. You would have to reset it few times. Depending on your AT, you may also get great advancement of debt badges.
