pictures? Want to rub it in the faces of all the other people who have
been unable to beat Gold or perhaps give them tips on how to manage a
successful playthrough?
I streamed my Gold playthrough so the video is saved, so you can head here to watch it.
Note: Sometimes the sound stuttered it's a bug with my broadcasting tool Xsplit, however it fixed itself every minute, other times I had to quickly alt-tab out and fix it. If you don't like it, mute the video
In the end we had 1 Phantom but she was stuck inside a wall, thankfully
we had a Vanguard who had shockwave and it saved our lives.
What
class did you play? Any tips for others? Got videos of your
playthrough? A video is also helpful, I find observation is a very quick
way of learning new things.
Tips:
- Teamwork is essential. If you don't have a good team who can communicate effectively, say goodnight.
- A decent all round team who knows their strengths and uses combinations effectively.
- Strong Weapons help a lot. Upgrade them too. Add Armor/Ammo mods.
- Ensure you have crowd control.
- Power Combinations are super-effective.
- Voice Chat is very handy (as seen in the video).
- Don't stray too far from each other unless it's all clear. If someone calls for help, help them.
- Keep moving and flank enemies or stay put and cover fire.
- Nothing bad with spraying. Or using anti-armor weapons v shields.
- Infiltrator Cloak + Revive is the greatest way to save your friend.
- Provide covering fire and if possible use abilities to slow or hinder enemies who are behind your allies (Stasis, Warp, Carnage, Overload etc) Anything to make them knockback in pain!
- In a nutshell, ensure you have good defence strippers (Engineer Overload or Warp) to remove Phantom defences and then have a vanguard charge in and knock them down.
- Do not go Rambo. That is the Vanguard's job.
- Don't focus on one enemy all the time. Weaken a target who is under fire by your friend and then move on. You will get an assist and in the meantime that enemy will die, allowing your buddy to help you with the next kill. Repeat.
- Try not to corner yourself into a room for too long.
- Live. And when you are very desperate USE your spec-ops kit (the stuff that gives you your shields & health back).
- If you're under fire from a lot of enemies and have around a bar of health w/no shields, wait for it to regen.
We had:
- Infiltrator w/Widow & Cloak. The Infiltrator was brilliant. Not only does the headshot damage kick ass with the widow but with an Adept's Stasis you have a clear and easy kill.
- Vanguard w/max Nova/Charge. Combined with Stasis the Vanguard can set up huge Biotic Explosions non stop with Charge + Nova. A Vanguard should time the Nova so it's used right before the Charge Regens. Claymore is awesome for VG too.
- Asari Adept w/ Max Warp & Stasis - The Asari should focus on trapping high-target enemies in order of: Phantoms, Engineers, Centurions. Now it all depends on who is where but you can trap as many enemies you want and Warp them. The Vanguard can follow your stasis and do a charge. The Sentinel can do a warp and spread out the stasis effect.
- Sentinel. Now... the Sentinel compliments everything. She has Cryo Blast & Warp & Throw. The Throw helps knock back Atlases. The Warp compliments Asari Adepts and Stasis. Cryo Blast + Stasis + Charge = Glass shatter. Pure Crowd Control and it's brulliant.
Proof:
Once again, click here to view the video on our ridiculous success on Gold. I can't believe we managed it. But you can do it if you just take a few tips from the video... or a lot of tips ^^.
Update: We beat Gold on Mars Colony today. It was far easier and less hectic than Noveria, I must admit. A lot more movement and clear long ranges for us to fire down on enemies from 1 section.

Here is the video of my friends and I attemping Gold on the Mars Colony and managing to succeed. Hope you enjoy it and take some handy tips from it as well
- Infiltrator with Widow only + Disruptor. Max Cloak Damage, Weapon Damage & Fitness with some Cryo.
- Vanguard with Charge / Nova as before
- Asari Adept with Stasis Bubble (which was far better than the regular single Stasis)
- Engineer with Area Overload & Incinerate/Drone.
We experimented a little with other classes, this time we had an Engineer and a different type of infiltrator which focused more on damage and it turned out well. Snipers on this map are brilliant as you have some seriously wide open areas in the centre of the map. The added disruptor ammo was a nice bit to 'shock' or stun enemies. Ammo power is up to you, but I preferred Disruptor. You can see how we did it from the video above.
Again we prioritised on Phantoms and if there was an Atlas we would whittle it down and the Widow really kicked in good this time. Oddly, we found Gold on Mars easier, which was a good thing. I don't think I honestly panicked as my job as an Infiltrator was to ensure I gave maximum damage to stasis'd targets while the Engineer ripped off enemy shields non-stop. Twas great!
I wonder how the Reaper Husk enemies will be on Gold :\\

Retour en haut
had to deal with enemies coming up behind us, which you don't get on the extraction wave. They were basically able to outflank us with Phantoms and whatnot, but we didn't have the luxury of using their flanking routes to escape once the job was done.
Video will be up shortly. Salarian infiltrator PoV.
