Was doing great. Two decent weapons, and well on my way to Gunslinger L2 when I enter Callisto 4.

I spawn inside a room. I opened the door and was face to face with a security bot. It was a two-size door, so no way to get to cover quickly. Outside and to the left were two former soldiers.

I stealthed to get away and turned to the right and around the corner. The door on that side opens. Another Security bot. Are you serious? I keep running to try and find some cover to fight this onslaught of murder. Stealth wore off. Start taking tons of damage.

Dove around the second corner of the box I started in, now down to 40% HP after using two healthpacks. Two drones. Out of tricks.

Dead.

Thanks RNG. Yet Another Annoying Death.
That's just unwinnable. I can't see what I could've done differently, aside from possibly take two facefull salvos from the first security bot in order to get to cover and heal up, then take it down. But I doubt I would've survived that either.

Sometimes RNG is just nasty.
My last UV AoCo run was also doing great, until in mid-Io I opened a door to face 3 exalted regen-deadly-whatnot reavers. As a Marine no chance to run away. They eat health too fast, Adrenaline and three big medkits could only prolong the agony. I don't think there was a way to get out of that situation.

Please do report such situations. The game is supposed to be hard on HARD or UV, but there should be always be a chance for a way out. Those two situations could probably be saved by a CRI Phase, maybe they should drop on Callisto?
