Have not been able to finish a single match today without disconnecting. I am stupid for trying and more upset than I should be.

Glad to see they are still pushing out updates, hope they can address some of the "lost connection to EA servers" problem at some point. That is extremely frustrating. Would anyone be willing to take a look at my manifest and give me a "best available" analysis for what I've unlocked at this point? I've got a few classes/weapons that I believe I understand how to play but I haven't found a combo that gives me a good feeling for something I could run with over and over for mass credits. I understand certain classes/weapons would be best against certain types of enemies or in certain maps, but sometimes I'm just bouncing between characters hoping that something clicks. I had some pretty terrible Gold matches yesterday, some of which were due to my lack of performance, some my teammates. So I apologize if you ran into some dick-head pubbie named teh_DK who kept dying repeatedly. e: V yeah, PC. e2: VV thanks Synonamess Botch, will give that a go tonight. Do you leave Hunter mode on from the start or no? I feel like I get myself killed just leaving it on but then I have to use another cooldown to turn it back on.

Synonamess Botch posted:Krogan Battlemaster is also really strong on gold and above because he can tank like a motherfucker, ignore carnage, go full durability because rage is bugged. (silver) I came out on top using a Piranha II. 2nd try was pretty similar except I was dropped from the game in wave 8 or so (not a desync, connection error). Thanks for the advice everyone. I could easily see changing some points for defense before moving into gold with him.

Nordick posted:Apart from getting disconnected every once in a while mid-match (not horribly often, just often enough to go "not this poo poo again"), my problem is that starting the game up is such a chore. The time it takes to initially connect to EA, check DLC, check again just for good measure, and then finally access multiplayer is pretty ridiculous. Accessing the store has an additional wait associated with it. Took a couple-day break from this because I was getting dangerously upset about frequent disconnects. Decided to get on today to do the promotion thing, got the disconnect error before even entering a match on the multiplayer menu, and when I did join my first match I was disconnected during wave 8. I'm not sure what the issue is here but support can't tell me anything, and I am at this point considering the multiplayer non-functional. I'm really bummed because I still read the thread and want to try/unlock all these cool things I am reading about and building load-outs on Narida.

My connection issues appear to have been resolved by disabling the Windows firewall entirely. Adding exceptions was not enough. Just played 3 successful matches with no disconnects, which has not happened in weeks. If you are seeing the lost connection error frequently and are running the built in Windows firewall (Win7), try turning it off.

Unlocked some good stuff tonight: - Geth Plasma Shotgun (holy poo poo ) - Asari Justicar (about to read up and try it out) I was straight killing it on my Geth Inf. first try with the Plasma Shotgun. That gun is something else. edit: V I'm trying to put together a spec right now, how's this look? http://narida.pytalhost.com/me3/classes/#03RQFFRq9@0@A@@O4L4@0@0 Should I run with a low cooldown or just use a shotgun?

Unlocked the N7 Shadow last night. Seems like a lot of fun but I need to learn how to not die with it. Also went back to human sentinel for a couple games, got paired up with a drell adept and we just blew everything all up. Fast-paced biotic combos are seriously fun and don't happen enough in my games.

All my krogan are as pink as they can get and headbutt all teammates during downtime (or when poo poo hits the fan). I'll be on a good bit tonight to do whatever. New favorite is shadow but I'm always open to warpsplosion parties on an adept or sentinel. Origin-ID is teh_DK for those who don't have it already.

Also all of my character names are just dumb. I figured since they aren't displayed anywhere except your character screen (is this right?) there was no use putting forth effort for a good name. So I have characters named things like: drizzir, facekiller, big_guy, Skullatore.

I've rediscovered the human engineer and all of its tech blasting glory. What's a good spec with combat drone for gold? Im thinking explode, short range, chain. I could see how drone with damage, damage, rockets could be fun for single target damage. I might just make one of my HE single target drone/overload/incinerate and focus the other for aoe. Sound viable?

I use my mic often with a goon-group and on objective rounds only with pub groups. Typically something along the lines of "this will go faster if you stand near the escort" or "get to the hack please". No one ever responds though they do typically follow my advice.

Just last night discovered the magic that is the Kroguard + Justicar combo. What a deadly duo! Reave everything, charge everything, explode everything. I have my Kroguard specced for damage/weight and shotgun weight over weapon damage because I want to charge more than I want to shoot. I may be gimping myself but I just prefer it that way. Also sorry for not responding to invites last night, I was in the zone with my new justicar friend. Will most likely be on all evening tonight because VOLUS.

Consensus on new specs for Human Engineer and N7 Paladin (or any other new tech/fire-bursting classes -- Salarian Engineer maybe)? Sometimes I struggle with things like deciding between radius evolutions (to trigger more techsplosions) or damage (to loving kill dudes) and probably over-think it. I just need to be told "this is the one to use".

I really enjoy playing Justicar when there are other biotics and they use their powers. I just grouped with a Kroguard who almost exclusively sniped and I only saw him charge once. I was reaving anything in his view and he'd just snipe them away. Dude! Blow that poo poo up biotic stylee!

Elotana posted:They can't change direction mid-Smash so any class with a dodge shouldn't have problems, and most classes without dodges can tank them long enough to kill them. Paladin is my class of the week right now. I've got energy drain specced for damage so it doesn't take much to get shields/barriers down. I am thinking of promoting so I can respec to the cryo-shield though. I've found myself using melee more than usual.

Got a Collector Rifle (AR) today, stuck it on a level 1 Turian Sentinel (just promoted because I haven't seen a respec card in weeks), finished #1 on a random bronze. Not hard, I know, but the other 3 level 17+ players really have no excuse.
