What is the IRON SPECTRE challenge?


Simple.


Insanity mode.


No guns.


No powers.


No directing squadmates. (since we all know how fast they die if you don't)


Just punches.



Yeah, that's right, punches. Can you do it? A real spectre could. I'll let you cheat and use guns on things like the Terminator who are too far away to punch. BUT NO GUNS ON THINGS YOU CAN GET AT . Bring it on. I expect as proof, videos of the hardest sections of the game, such as the final part of Horizon before the praetorian, the room in Tali's loyalty mission right before you find her dad that makes me want to stab kittens with how many geth are in it, and the reaper IFF which is super easy normally but would probably be a bitch and a half with only punches.



Anyone who can complete this before I do (and you get a head start because I can't play Mass Effect until my hard drive gets replaced) will receive a FABULOUS REWARD!


Are you tough enough?

I had debated whether or not to add to my comprehensive list an Infiltrator Guide I found which was geared toward melee only, but I guess I should reconsider the decision not to add it. Wouldn't be very comprehensive if I didn't. Have to find it again, though.

i would probably flatten my forehead by banging on the wall to hard.

[Some Dude]

That's god'amn suicide

Would you be able to use Tech Armor on a sentinel? Even a rank 1 would be great for this(I'm seriously considering this, as I have nothing better to do with my time)

I said no powers, and defensive powers or things like the tactical cloak very much count.

[Mx_CN3]

YMIR mechs...oh dear God...



Can't even cloak or AR to them...



I'll try it, perhaps, but I doubt I'd get past Freedom's Progress.

[Atmosfear3]

Not sure this challenge would be any fun really. It'd be the slowest playthrough ever waiting for your witless teammates to take down defenses before you can even try to get into melee range. I don't even want to think about the Praetorian fights doing this challenge.

[Lemonwizard]

Personally the thing that concerns me the most about the whole affair is Praetorians. Getting close to them on insanity is practically suicide even on a normal playthrough, and punches don't do very much damage to try and burn through the barrier faster than it can be recharged.




EDIT: To clarify, when I say "normal playthrough" I mean using guns and powers on insanity, not on normal difficulty.

You can't kill praetorian with punches. It's impossible. When you get close it gets down on the ground, does its AOE kill-everything-in-5m-radius attack and recharges its barrier at the same time. GL though. I'd much rather have a playthrough without using cover at all than have a playthrough with just punches.

[IMethos]

not possible

Well, Lemonwizard did say he'd let you cheat and use guns on the enemies you couldn't reach, so I guess the Praetorian qualifies.

[Sailears]

Blimey! My mind cannot even conceive how difficult that will be.

[Funkcase]

Can you kill the end boss by punching him lol.

[SirValeq]

Well, this challenge would require some mad positioning to take advantage of the fact, that if you put an enemy between you and other enemies, they won't shoot not to risk friendly fire... So lots of strafing while punching. Sorry, elbowing!

how am I supposed to kill the baby reaper

[numotsbane]

what about the enemies on ledges? that you can't reach. freedoms progress has a couple of LOKI's, and mordins recruitment has rocket vorcha...

[Azint]

There's a trope for this somewhere.

Ah, here it is.

[Calculatrice]

What about the flying turrets in freedom's progress? Or the end boss? Or the gunships?

Well, you could try reading the whole original post which says "I'll let you cheat and use guns on things like the Terminator who are too far away to punch. BUT NO GUNS ON THINGS YOU CAN GET AT"

Boring, idiotic and above all impossible to accomplish. No directing your squadmates means they die, ergo all the focussed fire is going to be on you ergo you're dead. You're talking about how difficult the likes of Praetorians and YMIR mechs would be but I'd like to see you get passed a single krogan or geth hunter. Then again, since there's an YMIR mech waiting for you on Freedom's Progress you're probably not even going to get anywhere near said krogan or geth hunter.
