They fixed the missing shot issue months back, it's been pretty great ever since. Add a tech ammo power to it. The ammo effect is applied as soon as the grenade hits so they'll be stunned/frozen/paniced while the grenade timer runs out.

When she has the bullshit shield up the scorpion rounds stick to the shield bubble so you don't have to aim at her spindly body. If she's coming right for you spam rounds at her feet and watch her be all 'oops totally wasn't going to hit you bro let me back up a few steps for you'

Did Bioware fix being able to run with the delivery packages? I was just doing a vorcha solo for the weekend challenge and I "ran" but at walking speed.

I've been able to successfully sprint to the dropoff by mashing spacebar while I do it. If that's not what you meant, then yes, they did fix some walking speeds with the package.

Anyone tried out the black widow with explosive ammo yet? Does it have that old school Krysae feel?

Hey I've been noticing gold public games have become a lot harder to get going with good people, if anyone's interested in helping me out my origin name is AbnormalReflex.

Origin is broken right now; if you're not seeing any people online restart it and it should fix itself eventually.

Honestly I'm gonna have to say that Turian Ghost with a Harrier and Acolyte is easier to solo Geth (Silver or Gold, Platinum is way beyond me) than KroGuard. KroGuard is still possibly/probably better against Reapers and maybe Cerberus.

The thing that limits the KroGuard's potential vs Reapers and Cerberus is the sync-kills, and the fact that the KroGuard simply cannot dodge beyond Charging a different target. It's definitely possible in spite of these limitations but I think it commands an awareness of animation->response that is unnecessary vs Geth. Kroguard are beasts against Geth because, without synch-kills, with their stagger resistance, ABC and heavy melee or shotgun during your cooldown and you're generally set.

Yeah, I just found it a bit faster on Gold with the TGI to Always Be Cloaking, hit Overload, pop heads with the Harrier, pop Stimpacks constantly, rip off Prime shields/kill Bombers with the Acolyte. The difference between hosting solo with the Acolyte and playing in some Russian guy's game makes it feel like two different guns. When you're in someone else's game, half the time you end up bouncing the pellet off a wall and having it hit something, whereas while hosting it's like a miniature missile launcher.

Oh, definitely. I just think it's a little more brainless to succeed via the Kroguard. Not to say that you can sleepwalk through it, you just don't need to be quite as aware of your environment as you do on a class like the TGI.

nwin posted:Gay. Unlocked the new Asari and took her for a few matches. Pairing her with a Hurricane feels right. More survivable than anticipated (6/6/6/4/4 with Stronghold V gear), nice mix of biotic explosions and close-range spraying (with increased damage due to warp/field).

nwin posted:True, it's just that I'd rather have a harrier II instead of this thing right now. Everyone would, but I'm not certain how that's relevant considering it was never a possible outcome of the Commendation Pack. It's one thing to look longingly at what you could've gotten; wishing for something you couldn't have is just torturing yourself for no reason.

nwin posted:Good to know. So I just have to become a millionaire! For some reason I thought all the n7 guns were from comm packs. It can be confusing since they're all black-label, but when (or if) you look in your manifest you'll note that the commendation pack weapons are sectioned off into 'Promotional'. Comm pack weapons can only be gotten from comm packs, and the rest only show up in Spectre/PSPs (or maybe a Veteran if you get insanely lucky). Still waiting on the guaranteed ultra-rare pack that they will never give us.

The Acolyte is going to get nerfed so bad soon. If it happens on tuesday, I want a drell infiltrator as compensation. Are there any new Salarian classes lined up? I don't remember one, but it would be nice to get a Sentinel or something.

Paracelsus posted:Don't they usually only do that if the weapon becomes ridiculously prevalent? I see more Acolytes than I used to (i.e., more than none), but nothing like the Piranha, Typhoon, or Krysae in their heydays. It's really common on Xbox this week. I'd say more common than some of those others just because everyone has it now, where the others were new and rare after release.

I'm not familiar with them never really played a turian until now. My havoc at the moment is having some good success with the hurricane and a bit of a melee focus but I'm interesting in trying some other stuff.

I use the Phaeston a lot, but honestly once I get my Harrier above I I can see myself switching to it. Its current ammo reserve (at I) is abysmal. The Phaeston, with Turian stability bonuses, shoots almost straight even when firing un-aimed. You can chain up headshots really reliably with it. It's on par with the Hurricane IMO; doesn't fire quite as fast, but each shot seems like it does a tiny bit more damage.

Alright I just encountered a weird problem I had before with the turian havoc and hurricane. I got all the stability bonuses except the last one and put a stability mod on the weapon, with this the aiming reticule doesn't move even a single millimeter... until some random point when I hit a high level and all of a sudden it acts like there's no stability at all and the gun swings up wildly. I didn't remove the mod, the skills are exactly the same, what gives? I had to respec last time and it looks like I'll have to do that again but I would really like to avoid this poo poo it makes the weapon go from amazing to a pain in the rear end in the blink of an eye. I have a feeling it's some kind of bug like the old shockwave not working at a certain rank or whatever, the only difference between when it worked and now is I spent a bunch of skill points I had saved up but it was all for havoc strike / stim pack / fitness so none of it should have messed with the stability. edit: also unrelated but stim pack is only doing the full screen colour change maybe once in every five times I use it, what's the deal with this? Am I still getting all the stat bonuses? I love this guy on paper but it's getting to be more annoying than fun with seemingly arbitrary problems like this.

It's a bug. The stability bonuses randomly stop working sometimes.
