So... Invasion is just Gambit on Steroids?
It's literally Gambit but on a much larger scale.

Kinda BS now. The missions are interesting but the Invasions kills what little fun there is.

No, its not gambit at all. There's no motes to collect or bank. There's no arena where your own teammates are doing an objective while you distract the opposing team.. you dont even have a team at all in the Invasions, therefore there's also no winning team or losing team. Gambit is an actual team sport... Invasions are just a single guardian doing PvP against an entire team of players who are doing PvE and cant invade back. Its an insult to call this crap Gambit (lol).

8 RepliesHalf the time, this old tortoise can’t see where the target(s) is/are…whether I’m invading or whilst being invaded, due to flashing lights and other explosive distractions, whilst trying to stay alive as I fight off the way-overtuned hordes. Now, am working on the vex clan loot bar, and am getting multiple invaders - even on non-priority missions?! Or is that just me having another Senior Tortoise moment?! 😵💫 Oh, and don’t get me started on exfil difficulty issues trying to get on that ship! 🤨 That is all. Ease Slings! 🖖👻 MTFBWY

1 ReplyNot really. In gambit, an invader could make the difference in whether a team won or lost. In lawless frontiers… an invader is nothing but a waste of time. Inconsequential. Sure, they can take a few revives and waste a couple minutes of your time…. But you are given 3 extra revives when they invade, anyways. And its not really a time crunch to finish these missions on time.

It’s not gambit. It’s completely pointless. No good 3 man team will ever be killed. Nor would it matter if they were they will still clear the activity, not lose like you can in gambit. As an invader you are farming for literally no other reason than the crystal or the title. The crystal could have dropped from anything else and the title is so casual I don’t even get why they made it or spent time developing the invasion mechanic. I’m 3 precision kills away from having Undertaker and I’ve used maybe 15-20 death marks I had naturally from doing the factions quest. No point in any of it

right, I really like Gambit, just gilded my seal this past weekend

No it isn't. Dying does nothing and Invasions can only happen once.

The moment I heard about the gamemode in the vidoc and youtubers hyping it. I thought isnt this just gambit with extra steps and no motes basically? Everyone screaming its an extraction based game mode and its so innovate when its more of the same and the only "extraction" thing about it is limited revives wooo a dumb mechanic in a non raid/GM NF setting that is ultimately meaningless because outside of invasions it doesnt matter and the ibvader is rewarded regardless of kills s...what's the incentive a cosmetic that you could earn by blowing yourself up multiple times? Hilarious.

Edited by eeriearcade: 1/4/2026 2:00:36 PMI think it feels very different to Gambit. Gambit PvE is faster paced and less varied. Gambit PvP is slower paced and more varied.

Is it? If were truly identical to invasions in Gambit, a new invader would show up every few minutes for the rest of the activity.
