As per what Cynrik expected, the Tier-2's two-man squad was quickly overwhelmed in the Swarm event; however, they put on a better showing, allowing him to collect valuable data on the creatures and beasts used in the event.
Although half paying attention during the 10-minute live stream, Cynrik was able to gauge the opposing creatures accurately and soon realized the scaling for the Swarm event had increased by a factor of three.
Not only did the strength of the creatures and beasts increase to match that of the Tier-2's competing, but the amount spawned had tripled, making him assume he and Brance would be facing six times as many of what could only be described as Chimeras.
The creatures and beasts all had multiple characteristics from different beings, but primarily they seemed to be a wolf/bird hybrid. Between the werewolf-style bodies, and the large wings and beaks, Cynrik wasn't too impressed.
