How To Kill 20 Mercenaries With Aether Shroud Active
RGL-80 Is Recommended
The Aether Shroud only lasts for 5 seconds, so the most important thing is to defeat as much mercenaries as possible at once. The RGL-80 is recommended because it can shoot consecutively at a wide range.
Best RGL-80 Loadout, Build, and Class SetupHow To Quickly Defeat 20 Mercenaries
If you do this process in the Mercenary Stronghold, you will be able to defeat 10 Mercenaries at a time while activated Aether Shroud. Then you will only have to do this process twice.
In the Mercenary Stronghold, there will be Shield Soldiers so if you are planning to go solo, you might struggle a little. Bring in items like Semtex and throw them at Shield Soldier to defeat them.
- Get the Stronghold Keycard after defeating a Mercenary Camp.
- While charging up the Aether Shroud, head to the Mercenary Stronghold.
- When you arrive to the Mercenary Stronghold, unlock the door.
The helicopter will arrive and about 5-6 Mercenaries will drop down.
When they drop down, they will activate smoke so you will want to activate the Aether Shroud and shoot down with the RGL-80 and you will get about 5-6 at a time. - After defeating the helicopter Mercenaries, head back inside and defeat the rest inside the Stronghold.（Do NOT open the safe just yet.)
- You will want to go outside and defeat zombies to re-charge your Aether Shroud.
*Even if you defeat mercenaries, your Field Upgrade will not be charged so you must go outside and defeat zombies. - Once your Aether Shroud is charged, return to the Stronghold and open the safe.
When you open the safe, the helicopter will reappear at the same location. Head back to the same place and defeat 5-6 Mercenaries with the same steps above.
Step 3: Attack The Mercenaries That Come Down Helicopter With RGL-80
Head to where the helicopter is at, and once you confirm the smoke, activate Aether Shroud and attack with the RGL-80. With this you will be able to defeat 5-6 Mercenaries.
Step 6: Drill Safe And Head Back To Helicopter Location
Once you get your first 5-6 Mercenaries, you will want to head out and defeat zombies to charge up your Aether Shroud. Once the Field Upgrade is charged, you can head back inside and drill the safe.
The helicopter will be in the same location, so head back and activate your Aether Shroud after the smoke ignites.

Spore Control Is Recommended Contract
When working on Spore Contracts, when you place the deactivating device, it will spawn infinite amount of zombies. Due to this, you will have a better chance to charge your Field Upgrade as well as use the Aether Shroud to complete the mission.
Assault Rifles Or SMGs Are Recommended
Not like the Mercenaries, you don't want to use the RGL-80. This is because there is some kind of glitch and the amount of zombies you defeat with the launcher does not get calculated properly. This is a waste of your time, so we recommend an Assault Rifles or SMGs more.

Even though the RGL-80 is not recommended when the Aether Shroud is activated, but it is recommended to charge your Field Upgrade. Choose the best weapon for your self that can charge your Field Upgrade quickly.
