That was close man ;)

How does the Claymore perform against the P's? Can you one-shot them while Cloaked?


I was using Inferno II and a close range head shot can one shot them.


Wouldn't cryo be better? Like, if you don't one shot someone, they would just froze and in a phantom/nemesis/centurion's case, they would slow down given you time to get away if needed or reload to kill them.


I tried it, Inferno was the best because of its damage over time. Even if you don't kill them right away, they will burn to death.


Hmm, that's nice to know...I might try once this weekend


I should add, if I had had AP ammo I would have taken that, greatest use I think.

I spot a thinly-veiled bragging attempt lol.

Good job nonetheless though, dude. Especially with human Infiltrator instead of Salarian. Much respect. What was your build?


Not bragging, more frustration than anything else. I did this with the human to prove she is just as capable as the Salarian. Sticky grenade is fantastic. Build=everything maxed, nothing in Cryo.


Human Infiltrators aren't exactly bad. They are still a damn good class.

Although once I get my Quarian Infiltrator with Sabotage AND Sticky Grenades (and hopefully Shotgun weight reduction) we are going to have some fun.


The only race to get Shotgun reduction it seems is the Krogan, I have heard.


:(

Hope it's not SMGs.

Gawd.


I think it is; humans get overall weight reduction, Salarians, SRs, Quarians SMGs, Turians ARs and Krogans SGs.

Post it, or at least parts of it. Because I'm interested how you use Sticky Grenades. I play my human infiltrator with a Claymore as well but I somehow can't get into using Stickys, especially since they are not a power and need to be refilled, Cryo is useful against unprotected enemies and gives a damage bonus and also because the last evolution of Cloak is completely useless if you play without powers or a sniper.

In order for Stickies to be effective you need to fully evolve them and how is of course a preference but I chose to increase total count, maxed out radius and level 6 for the bomb effect. I think I was able to make good use of them this way.

I got through the objective, soloing with a human infiltrator and the Claymore  and then...one mistake, a phantom instant killed me out of nowhere, even though I had a medigel left....I cannot even describe how angry I am. Has this happened to other people as well? I was soooooooo close..........:crying:

Good effort, but that is what happens on gold 1 mistake and death.

It's hard to tell because we only get one version of each race. Add to that I can't find the passive (non melee) for the other races in the game files.

Stardusk78 is unfortunately correct. Well according to what im seeing. Also Drells and Asaris get heavy pistols. Makes no sense with the Quarians.. Maybe they wanted to go with the "cute girl loose cannon uncontrollably firing dual Uzis in all directions" look.

Thanks Bioware.

Parts one and two are up, uploading 3 now. It's long, don't expect everyone to watch everything.

Um, is this thread question just a pretext for you to show off that you managed to solo Gold to wave 10?

I knew you played on PC Stardusk. Gold is much easier on PC. The little things like better aim etc. go a long way.

I died twice today at wave 10 on Noveria both times. Hack mission on the LZ is goddam ridiculous on that map. Phantoms can just jet pack up behind you.

I'm pretty burnt out on the demo, so I doubt I'll touch MP again until the 6th.

I feel your pain - and yes, post the video, I want to see how well the Claymore worked out for you.

Last night I had just ressed with a medigel, and while I was still INVINCIBLE, a damned phantom began the OHKO animation and killed me before I could move =/

The Claymore works very well I think but it is a shotgun. Along with the Widow it is the only weapon (currently) available that can one shot a Phantom (close range head shot). Looking back on what I did I should have taken a back up side arm. The Predator does not increase my weight so I might have taken that just for some range. I am likely going to wait for the real game until I try another solo run though.

I carry a Phalanx with my Claymore and barely lose any cooldown. It's a difference of 4 or 5% if I remember correctly which only changes the cooldown in the milliseconds. Comes in handy at times to have a backup pistol.

On another note: I can't one shot Phantoms with the Widow, not even when fully specced for sniper rifle damage. The problem is the barrier (or shields on other enemies). Even if the enemy only has 1 bar of barrier/shield left the next shot only takes away that 1 bar of protection without even so much as scratching the health meter. I'm not sure if this is intentional or a bug but it is so damn annoying. With the salarian infiltrator you can use energy drain first but that doesn't take away all the barrier from a phantom unfortunately.

Also I noticed in the video that you have the same problem I have at times. Sometimes you stand almost in front of an enemy and shoot it and it barely does any damage or no damage at all although it's hardly possible that the shot missed because you were so close. Especially since one can often shoot halfway across the map with the Claymore and still get a kill. It usually happens to me with the Claymore of Widow and I always wondered if it was lag and the enemy hitboxes are off or something like that. But it's really annoying with the weapons that only have 1 shot before they need a reload.

Things like this help me to better learn how to play my infiltrator. I will be watching the vid whilst having breakfast.

Still, I am very impressed. There is no way I could do this even on silver.

Seems to be a bug, others have complained.

I died at wave11 :(

I was running around the map so I didn't get swarmed at LZ. I turned a corner hit a phantom got OSOK.
