The only thing I can think of is that the 5th Council faction is the TOP DAWG faction are were meant to be the most dangerous. If this is the case, then OK, I can take it for what it is. But I was under the impression that all the enemy factions were sort of equal in different ways: Wardogs have no armor, no stealth, move fast and supernaturally heal fast and have average weapons. Hades Division have a ton of health, medium speed, no armor, can sort of stealth cannot regenerate health and medium weapons. But 5th Council HAVE armor, highest weapon damage, stunning weapons (Hollow one shot guns, Fatty shot gun, sniper sidearm), BUT aren't slow at all and cannot heal damage. 5th Council enemy AI is a bit OP.
