About that, is the Widow "cheap"?

I used it for 2 missions and on Insanity all it took was one long-range shot from Tali's shotgun taking down a lil bit of barrier and then one shot from me and Harbinger was dead.

"Your form is fragile" as he's turning into ash :lol:

By "cheap" do you mean "awesomesauce"?  If so, then yes.


I actually like switching off the Widow and the Viper. They're both very useful for different missions.

Viper with Cryo on the Reaper? Not even fair.

Inferno ammo for Shepard and Cyro for the squad. It's classic.

Loyal.  Made him leader of the second team.  (Followed the strategy guide on the forum, too.)  Nobody died up to that point.  Even more strangely, when everyone held the line, Miranda (disloyal) bit it while Zaeed (also disloyal) survived!  Weird.

Oh.  Makes perfect sense.

And of course Miranda bit it:  Zaeed's higher on the beefiness (or whatever) scale.


Hey, blame this forum's sill strategy guide for leading me astray, not my tendency to study things all the way through!

Yeah, but that's a biotic power. That's like giving a soldier Reave, it just doesnt' make much sense. Armor Piercing is great, but if you use Cryo in a smart fashion... you can do some CRAZY **** with it.

What constitutes a smart fashion? Shooting them is about as direct as it gets.

She glared at the stack of ammunition blocks piled neatly according to weapon on her table. Shepard wanted her to charge them with a biotic warp field after she’d mentioned the trick to him. He figured it’d mess up the Collectors or those smug asari or something. She’d agreed, and now she wasn’t sure why. What did she care if he had an easy time of it?

A sweep of her arm scattered the blocks all over the floor, sniper, pistol and submachine gun ammunition all mixing together haphazardly. Instantly she regretted it. “Thanks, Jack,” Shepard had said, even if she hadn’t done anything for him yet. What a p--sy.

She could still hear his boots banging on the deck of the corridor overhead. Toward the engineering compartment, then back to the elevator. It’d been like that since they’d f--ked up those geth on whatever planet that was. At least he still came down…

No such convoluted explanation is required, though.  All Sheps are biotic.  Some just actually get real training for it, while others don't.

I like to call it "efficient"

Nothing wrong with being able to clean a room with just five shots.Image IPB

Does anyone know where I can find my character/face code after customization (Xbox 360)



I know it's supposed to be in the top left of the squad screen, but it's not, simple as that...

I play on Hardcore just to make the Widow more practical. Any less and it becomes blatant overkill.

If you go in with an assault rifle with Cryo, it's not very effective. Using a weapon that always freezes in one hit, like a Carnifex or Viper, is much more effective. You can freeze 5 or 6 people in one go, then shatter them with ease, if you know what you're doing, and if you have the right team mates.

Same here, though I do it more for Energy Drain. Everyone has shields, so it become a lot more useful.

I never liked Cryo, because it just freezes the enemies, and then they fall to the floor behind the cover, so I can't shoot them. And when I have about five other enemies shooting at me, I can't just walk up and shoot the frozen ones.

I think you have to be on the Normandy for it to show up. Not sure, though.

It's all about stopping power. Making a group of enemies helpless. Using yourself only does so much.

Tali and Garrus freezing a krogan that's chargin you though? It's just ****ing awesome. It's GREAT as a support power if your team mates have the right guns.

As a soldier, I typically just use either Disruptor Ammo or Tungsten Ammo on the Vindicator. Infiltrator, I typically use Disruptor Ammo on the SMG, but I have heard that Cryo actually works very well with the Tempest or Locust.

Holy ****, I didn't comment on your FF. Hole was perfect I tell you!

And the Widow is cheap, it's too awesome even on Insanity.

Cryo + Revenant messes dudes up. Used it on attacking husks while looking for the IFF and it's VERY useful in controlling the situation.

Or as I usually do when I play as Mastermind Engineer. I pick Dominate and AI Hacking. I can just kick back and watch the krogans slaughter each other. Even more fun when I can assume control over Harbinger himself.Image IPB

If nothing else, I load Garrus and Tali up with Cryo, then use Disruptor or Tungsten for myself.

They're just plain ****ing epic with Cryo ammo. Especially Tali with the Carnifex. For anyone who doesn't believe me, take Tali with you on a mission that involves krogan. You won't be dissapointed.

On the PC version it shows up just above Shepard's name as an Identity Code.
I couldn't tell you if it is any different on the XBOX though.

Thing is, isn't Incindiary ammo inherently better because it takes down armor much better than Cryo? I think that's why I dropped it, cuz they both are badass when their armor was down but Incindiary could take down their armor effectively, too.

Incendiary has it's uses. If you fully upgrade heavy pistols though, you don't actually need it. Even on Hardcore, Tali's Carnifex chews through armor like a turian chews through fresh meat. Remember, you can empty a Carnifex clip taking down a krogan's health on Hardcore. One shot from Tali FREEZES it. Doing this for multiple people on a constant basis? You essentially lock the enemy down, and can use powers and headhots to finish them.
