Dr. Abysmal posted:It has to be a full extraction, right? I did an all turians with Hurricanes game but somebody decided to leave the LZ with five seconds left to attack a Phantom. Here's the goal: "Extraction on any difficulty with all squad members as the same non-human race." The way I read that you should be fine. You may want to do another all-something run to be sure. I mean I'm going to do more than one this weekend just for fun so... I mean the guys still a fuckup but it's probably not a big deal either way.

Like here is the BSN post for the operation, and it says you need a full extraction: quote:Squad Goal: Full extraction on any difficulty with all squad members as the same non-human race. Requires 2 or more players in squad.

According to the Bioware forums:quote:Squad Goal: Full extraction on any difficulty with all squad members as the same non-human race. Requires 2 or more players in squad. Also, if any PC goons want to do this, hit me up (Origin = LynxEyedZombie), I'll be on in a little while. EDIT: Beaten

Man, I'm a little offended by how bad the Argus. Four krogans of varying classes vs. Reapers on Gold might be my new favorite thing.

Whelp, full extraction it is. It's amazing that they can manage to make a find a new way to make things ambiguous every operation, but I guess that's why they do this for a living. Also the Argus actually made me nostalgic for when I only got character cards for poo poo I had maxed. Oh well it's at X so I can go back to ignoring it until it gets a major buffing.

I got the Argus to IX and the game trolled me for four straight PSPs before it maxed Also good job to Team Fanbreak on Glacier, four Vorcha sprinting towards the basement and dousing it flames is pretty fun

Ugh, they hosed up the requirements again? Well, it's not like I would've gotten a partial extract with goons or friends, and I certainly wouldn't try the op with pubs.SubponticatePoster posted:That's a nice way of saying he's stupid I try to be nice.

Anyone wanna do a Krogan or Vorcha team? My Origin ID is aegisaglow.Lagomorphic posted:That is only true for cryo, and fire explosions. Tech bursts do not require the enemy to die. They're not as obvious as other explosions though, which might be the issue. Ah, my mistake.

Perfectly Cromulent posted:Thanks for the Krogan smashfest. Sorry I kept charged a bunch of poo poo that you were trying to melee. It's cool, brogan games are just chaotic and it doesn't matter that much as long as everything is getting sent flying. This operation has revived my interest in playing a bit since all of the games have been pretty fun so far, they should do stuff like this more often rather than lazy "promote two classes" poo poo. Encourage fun team makeups. I'm interested in playing an all drell team at some point.

If anyone wants to shepherd a not-completely-skilled player through the festivities, I'm Revjake1 on Origin. Still quite new, don't have much gear, but I'm all about some hot same-species action to get more stuff. Plus, my mic isn't working at the moment, so you don't have to put up with my yammering or worry about any backtalk.

I just had the weirdest bug. Don't remember what character I was originally on, think KroSol, and get dropped into a lobby with 3 other people playing as Destroyers. I figure what the gently caress and switch over. Once the match starts, I can't see any enemies or the killfeed. I can see/do objectives and my teammates don't seem to be lagging. I could take damage. I think they were glitching because we did condor/cerb/plat in about 20 minutes. Free credits I guess, but it wasn't really fun. The only points I got were for reviving people

thehumandignity posted:I am having issues setting off tech bursts/fire explosions Tech combos require the target to be on electrified, on fire, or completely frozen. Fire and cryo explosions also require the detonating power to kill the target with the initial damage. Tech bursts are very easy to do but the effect is very subtle and easily missed when other powers are being slung around. You can tech burst off of any enemy but fire and cryo explosions can only be done on unarmored infantry. Also Fire and cryo explosions are very hard to execute when you have teammates around because it's very easy for them to kill the target with weapon damage. They're nice when they happen but they are not worth trying for. Tech bursts however are easy to do and you should be actively using them. I made a video to demonstrate the three tech explosion types: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJyEzUdiOlU

The Turian Fitness was supposed to be buffed, wasn't it? I went with all health/shields options on Fitness and the guy still has all the tenacity of a wet paper bag. Like, "two Geth Troopers will drop this guy" bad.

Elotana posted:Can't you just as easily say that you can use rail amps if you want weapon damage, though? Plus, the rank 6 damage bonus is 10%, which is equivalent to a level 1 rail amp, while the rank 6 weight bonus is usually 20 or 30%, equivalent to a level 2-3 efficiency mod. my reasoning is that once you get a halfway decent manifest, your weapons are already pretty light. the cooldown difference between 200% and 160% is negligible whereas extra weapon damage is always helpful. Cooldown bonuses scale very poorly when stacked. quote:I don't usually take rank 6 passive at all unless I'm totally skipping a power, I'm just curious. Yes in general take casters to racial 5 but weapon characters really benefit from the extra weapon damage, and a lot of the combat races have other awesome perks on that upgrade, too.

I'm a big fan of chain/neural/shield on overload. Knocks the shield off of anything short of an Atlas and it stuns an extra dude.Elotana posted:Turian Sentinel is way, way tougher than Soldier against Geth and Cerberus because Overload just kills Yeah the constant stuns keeps alot of fire off of you. Also 40-50% DR from tech armor makes those extra shields go a long way.

Man, I want to try an all Krogan/Vorcha/Batarian team. I got the op done right off with a team of Asari, then found a team of Quarians I helped out, but those don't even feel that different from humans.
