I used to be able to clear a Geth Gold on Firebase White in about 19 minutes. Recently, I have been playing with random kids and finishing much worse lol. Like 30-40 minutes, usually because someone drags the team behind.

Even after the buff, Geth is the still the easiest faction to farm credits on. All you need is a quarian infiltrator, backed by a salarian engineer who uses decoy. Do this on firebase white and you'll be winning gold with only 2 players (assuming you have decent gear ofcourse).

No mention of an all Salarian Infiltrator group? I was running with a group of randoms mowing down Geth Gold (I think most times were around the 23 minute mark, and we weren't going for speed that I'm aware of. No mics lol). Easily the best and most efficient public group I've ever been in. I think someone went down twice, and they were up in the blink of an eye. 4 cloaking infiltrators can really pick apart any group and move around the map much easier and safer than another group could. By about the 4th game, we had a rhythm going. Everyone was able to split up, lead groups apart, and then cloak and end up at the same spot decimating the choke points safely. I havent seen a another team capable of that on gold. I dont see why a Human infiltrator couldnt do the same. But he is a cloaca for coming with all Salarians.

Just something to consider.

I have 18 min clears against Geth, and a 17:21 clear against Reapers.  Overall, on average, Reapers are now faster after the (much needed) balance patch.

you know wildcat you are the first person that i have seen either in this game or on this forum that agrees that reapers are easier because of their bad habit of grouping together. maybe soldiers have a better eye for that kind of thing

I don't think that's true time-wise.  If you mean easy as in requires very little skill or awareness, then I'd actually have to rate it a tie between Geth/Cerberus.

If you mean easiest to farm on I'm going to have to say Reapers based on clearing times.  If or until people can provide screenshot/video proof of geth being easier than consistent 18min reaper clears, it's still Reapers (Geth is possible assuming extremely well geared team, skilled team).

I love brutes, the biggest champagne corks in the game.  Cheers to soldiers.

I'm fairly certain that Four Salarian Engies/Infs with Mantis X's vs Geth would work much better than any team vs Reapers....

Then I await your screenshots/videos of someone beating the most recent Reaper clear times I know of, both in the 17 min time length.

As soon as biotics get nerfed and or reapers getting buffed, I'm going to shoot for a time around there running non-biotic classes.

Just wait until the normal people that used to randomly queue up for this start queueing up again after Reaper Weekend.  No one will know how to play anymore.

K I'm sorry sir, but there is a fly in that lotion.
Geth Hunters.

Gold, from like wave 5 up there can be up to 6 at a time spawned and running around the map, effectively demolishing any team

Hunters decloak and attack Decoys, problem solved.  Again, the issue here is that Decoy centric strategies tend to have teams clustered and  stationary, and thus take considerably longer than other setups.

Also, Wildcat, your constant avatar changes confuse me.

It's because I'm on that if you ain't first, you're last approach.

Ricky: "I'm sorry. I took you for granted, Cal, and you were a really good friend to me and I never really gave you your due. It was my fault."

Cal: "I'll tell you the truth. I'm a little confused by your tactics."

Reese: Oh hell, Son, I was high that day. That doesn't make any sense at all, you can be second, third, fourth... hell you can even be fifth.

Ricky: What? I've lived my whole life by that!

You complete me mini-me.

[eldrjth]

if youre in a public game you obviously need to stick around and complete wave 11 since theres a lack of communication between players, so you dont want to die if other players are after a clear.

for public matches its far more efficient to farm geth than it is to farm reapers. where squad composition is pretty random, but you want at least 1 salarian engineer and 2 infiltrators (quarian or salarian are both good). it has inherent efficiency due the better %chance of success, where as guys farming reapers (not that good in public matches) are more prone to getting wiped/leaving not understanding the strategy.

I think the serious players have gotten to the point they have already farmed out all the rares they need and are just looking at ultra-rares at this point, which imo is crazy to farm for given the drop rate.

I agree on public matches farming Geth is the best option when taking time, completion percentage rate into consideration.

How exactly is this a guide to power leveling, when all recommended strategies involve teams of Lv20s?

Power leveling can refer to your character levels or your N7 levels / gear.  I meant it to refer to the latter.  Anyone can get a character from level 1-20 in a few hours, a day tops.

If someone needs a guide for that, then I don't really know what to say, it's the easiest thing in the whole world.

I will even provide a power leveling strategy for level 1s.

Firebase white.

Any difficulty.

Hide 4 people downstairs behind desks.

Chain grab Geth .

Shoot primes.

Level 1-9 on gold at the end of the match.

hey is this guide viable for gold or is it for silver?

[Lucien Midnight]

@UK Wildcat I've been farming Geth on firebase giant (gold). Have you found the location posted in your guide for this map effective against the Geth as well as reapers? We usually hold the fortress on the opposite side. Then again, we play conservatively and it takes us 40min...

Gold.  It will work for silver as well, but this is designed for Gold farming.

Lucien, that spot works, but there's a tendency to get trapped in there, I suppose it could work, but its worse to have to fire upwards than being able to fire on level and downwards which you can do from the spot i mentioned

After trying, and completing with the 2 Asari Adept/2 Drell Adept combo, I can confirm that your method is the fastest I've seen. 26:54 with minimal rocket usage.

I'm sure 4 decent SI's w/ Black Widows could get 16-18min. Someone just has to try it.

Hopefully it leads to some good farming before we can go back to playing the fun way
