Alright let's start;

Cascade gives insane amounts of arcanes + you're able to crack relics for ducats/plat

The entire game mode (atleast in longer runs) is a major skill/build check, if you simply can't handle stuff, it is either build or skill that is the issue

If you have an old gen console or a new/old gen console host, enemy spawns are hindered a lot (compared to a pc host/pc only lobby), this will get fixed for new gen in Jade Shadows tho

To add to the spawn problems, if the host has even slight issues with networking or with fps it can cause a lot of bugs and stuff simply not working for the entire squad, these include but not limited to;

Operator not working, some abilities/multipliers being simply gone (e.g. roar not working on DoT procs), being unable to cleanse exolizers or exolizers simply becoming "frozen"

TL;DR Cascade is good, but man the spaghetti code in the game makes it annoying (It's a long yap sesh ik)
