Eagle III. I guess it could've been worse, but I still don't have the valiant or the hurricane.

So I was gonna ask about the Kishock but never mind with that build. So I'll ask about the collector sniper rifle instead, I just hit X with it, is it worth a drat?

Extra ammo doesn't work on it though. Just tap tap tap on enemy heads and watch them melt as it does not have a charge up mechanic like the PPR.

There's a good chance that may have been me. I do well enough at Silver, but in the leap to Gold, I find I don't have the weapons/items needed to hold my own. I did, however, discover that the N7 Hurricane is an excellent replacement for a shotgun on a Vanguard. Because, really, who needs to worry about muzzle climb when you're right in their face?

Am I right in thinking that the Asari Valkyrie and Volus Adept would be an insane combination? That makes for 90% damage reduction and constant biotic detonations.

So, I just finished a pretty laggy gold match, did a full extraction, got to the experience screen, hit skip, left the lobby... and I got no credits. Is this a known thing? Is there something I can do to avoid it in the future?

apophenium posted:Uh, I just noticed I only have 16 more Medi-Gels. What packs should I open up to get some more of those? Jumbo equipment packs will give you guaranteed medi-gel, but only five at a time for 33k, except for where the random rolls give +2 or +1 more. If you have all your other consumables at 255, you can get 6 medi-gel at a time from a Veteran pack for 20k, 12 for 40k. Alternately you can buy Recruit packs and get 8 medigel for 20k or 16 for 40k. If you're short by one or 2 from 255 on things like Ops packs and missiles, you can use the Veteran or Recruit packs to fill them out until you get nothing but medi-gel. I prefer Veteran packs due to the level 2 consumables, but either one is a good way to get plenty of a single type of consumable.

Alteisen posted:Condor/Collectors. :suicide: You could have every melee damage bonus with this build and have a pretty useful power too: http://narida.pytalhost.com/me3/classes/#Infiltrator/NShadow/JFKIL/Disciple5AA1AA1////JuggernautShield5/ However as great as shadow strike can be, I find relying on it as my only power is dangerous because it's buggy. It doesn't work on some maps if an enemy is standing on stairs or a ramp. Sometimes inexplicably it doesn't do full damage to an enemy and Scions and cannibals can stagger you out of the attack on a good host, on a bad host just about any enemy that staggers. Not to mention all it takes is an enemy around the corner you didn't see and you're down even if your target successfully dies. I prefer this build because you can safely hang back and kill lots of things without ever shooting your gun and only shadow strike when you're sure it's going to kill, and you can dodge and run your way out of trouble if you need. Also you probably have some strength gear that you're never going to use for anything else if you want to use it. http://narida.pytalhost.com/me3/classes/#Infiltrator/NShadow/DPLIN/Disciple5AA1AA1////JuggernautShield5/

So my weapons are doing nearly zero damage and I can't pick up ammo in this round. What the gently caress? e: Weapons are doing no damage. Enemies do not attack me, although I can take damage. I can't revive my teammates but I do count for purposes of escorting the drone. Throwing a grenade makes me wave but doesn't use a grenade. Actually, the Praetorian will still attack me. This is just strange. My guns worked at the start of wave 8 but cut out abruptly. Then they started doing like 1% damage. I can't switch to my missile launcher. Welp, got my power back round 10 I guess. Saved the day...ish. Red Crown fucked around with this message at 03:14 on Feb 16, 2013 |

I won't hesitate to drop a missile in a single cannibal on bronze if it's being annoying enough because I got plenty to spare. I mean I seriously have around 200 missiles even though I rarely go a game without using at least three. And yet I have zero medigel even though I have enacted strict medigel rationing sanctions on myself.

Hey, Zoran, I don't know what the problem was, but I kept losing my connection in the lobby. I decided it'd probably be a better idea to drop out before the game started. Sorry about that! Also, I finished the weekend challenge playing a solo platinum game, which I've never tried before, and something weird happened. I killed a Banshee with Dark Channel and it jumped to a Husk, but when the Husk died, it showed up in the killfeed as a Biotic Explosion. What the heck?

So, I got the TGI the other day, and was pretty unimpressed. Probably because the best assault rifles I have are a Mattock II and a Collector I. I just picked up the Typhoon, and HOLY poo poo.

Could pick up the pizza but not deliver it, it sat in the middle of the circle until another team mate picked it up. Enemies could attack me and damage me, like my shields and health would go down but I wouldn't die. Halfway through the game it went back to normal, I assume because the host quit torrenting or something. Edit: now I am in a laggy game on hazard giant where the rain isn't showing up but I'm still getting the hit to the shields yay. mania fucked around with this message at 04:56 on Feb 16, 2013 |

They just love to camp your corpse and stagger you the goddamn second you stand up, usually dooming you to go down again. So yeah, gently caress Marauders forever ('cept Marauder Shields, he's a p. cool dude).

TastyLemonDrops posted:For Smash, is it better to have the biotic combo or the electric combo? Vanguard should always take the biotic option. Adept is up to you. Pretty much any power will set off a tech burst but you specifically need a biotic power as a detonator for biotic explosions. In public games infiltrators and soldiers are very popular so with an uncoordinated team you are much more likely to get combos from random team mate power spam with the tech evolution. Biotic explosions are overall more powerful and more useful so if you mostly play with friends where you have a reliable detonator the biotic evolution is better.
