Waaah. I kinda get the feeling that uploading the video won't happen. I'm not mad at you or anything. Just sad that we won't be able to see the ownage. Reapers seem like unbeatable too me on gold!

[sheltomlee]

mind blown

[Babydel]

Any news on how the upload is coming?

[Terry07]

The video still hasn't been uploaded?? Lol. What the.....

[Nizzemancer]

You have to much free time.

[Miriad]

Anxiously waiting for the video....

[Sailears]

Giant? Reaper? Solo Beastmaster?

Finally the second coming of Wrex

Indeed it is nothing less than this.

R u still with us, specter? Or did u give up on the rendering? I know u r going thru trouble with it. But I wouldn't even mind to see just a couple of waves. Like a wave 9 and the last wave or something I come back to this post once in awhile to see if u put it up hehe. Well. I'll be back to check it out later.

[Babydel]

Bump for answers. How is it coming?

I thought Shredder Mod V didn't anything for the Claymore. Can't wait to watch the vid, good job.

Where did you heard such heresy ?!

He must have misremembered and mixed it up with the Geth Plasma shotgun, where the Shredder mod really is a waste. Me thinks.

@ Topic: Pure ownage. I NEED to see this. *Hands Spectre a commendation pack*

 Video is up.

Apologies for the delay - I got caught up with work & dealing with connection problems. Everything is sorted now and I should be uploading on a more regular basis. Hope you enjoy. As of this solo run the Claymore is now my favourite weapon (tied with Black Widow), just as it was in Mass Effect 2.

Some breakdown:

Wave 3 starts at 5:40. Disable 4 targets objective.

Wave 6 starts at 21:48. Disable 4 targets objective.

Wave 10 starts at 52:40. Upload objective.

I finish the match with 0 medigels, 2 rockets and 1 health pack left.

EDIT: Still not fully processed so 1080p option may appear a bit later.

Just viewed the first few waves. Well done!

Impressive!

Thanks I'm much more experienced with the claymore now - this was just when I started out practicing.

[Tangster]

Just saw it on my feed. Will watch it when I'm eating dinner, should be good!

[Babydel]

Upto 51 minutes (skipped a few of course!).

Claymore with Incendinary Ammo is a Banshee eater, every shot staggered. D:

I love the Krogan BM, but it's still a shame that the best way to play him is run and gun, only charging to get shields and to get out of sticky situations.

Would also hope this shows people how to play against Reapers... Camping "stronghold"? Have fun! Much better to kite and gun.

Still awesome job though!

Amazing bro. Out of curiosity, why the Claymore over the GPS? No criticism here, just curiosity. I tried both and I really liked the larger clip of the GPS.

Great job! Running and gunning is definitely where it's at, especially vs. the Reapers.

Hosting as a vanguard helps a ton, and so does the lvl 3 Shield equipment, especially on a Krogan.
Also, playing on a PC is much better than the consoles because it's a lot easier to look around, aim, and sprint. It's also much easier to use the reload glitch on PC, which I see you used to great effect with the Claymore.

Your build looked great, though I would give one helpful critique.
Your points in Fitness 6 'True Rage' are largely wasted, as the Rage mechanic is currently bugged for Krogan Battlemaster Vanguards.
The animation plays and the screen changes after you melee kill 3 (or 2 in your case) enemies within 30 seconds, but you don't actually get the melee bonus from Rage OR the Damage Resistance.

I think you would still get the +30% melee damage from that evolution, since it isn't Rage specific, but the 2 melee kills = Rage is pointless at the minute.
If you still wanted that +30% melee damage, it might be better to go for the Rank 4 melee evolution and go +25% shields for Rank 6. You'll get the same melee damage bonus but more shields in the end.

Personally, I like going Rank 4 Health/Shields, Rank 5 Martial Artist (which still works, and since you like H.Melee you'll get a lot of use out it rather than the faster recharging shields, which you have Charge for) and finally Rank 6 Health/Shields.
1600/1600 Health Shields while still having a nice +75% melee boost after that first H.Melee kill.

Add that lvl 3 Cyclonic Shield boost equipment, and it's just sickening.


Still, huge congratulations and props for beating Giant/Reaper/Gold solo!
Now imagine what we can do once Rage is fixed for Krogan Vanguards!


EDIT:  Fixed a couple typos and changed the first sentence after I watched some more.  Grats dude!

Finished watching it now. *goes off to play his Krogan*

One thing sprang to mind though, on the disable 4 objective phases, wouldn't it have been better to bring the brutes low? Rather then kiting them to the other side to kill them and then run the risk of another spawning close to the objective?

I don't have the patience for something like this, but it's rather amazing.

Thanks for the kind words and yeah,  I agree with you that the melee boost is not there from rage, however I think the damage resistance might be. I still haven't tested thoroughly - and DR is the main reason I went with 2 kills in 30 seconds as final evolution. I needed the maximum time my shields could last until the next charge. Obviously Claymore & DR barrier make charge reuse slower than a snail on holiday.

And I'm very much looking forward to rage being fixed, I love Krogan BM, despite the fact it's slow as hell. The most annoying thing in this game for me is staggers and he's almost immune to them.

Incendiary ammo is the real deal - I've tried claymore with other types of ammo and none of them stagger as reliably as incendiary. Also, bear in mind you have 8 pellets each adding to DOT resulting in massive damage. You can shoot twice and leave things to burn! Charging in later waves when solo is just suicidal, that's why I resorted to run & gun tactics. With a team it's different - you can still tactically charge and get away with it cause if a banshee grabs you, they're there to save you. But against reapers alone, a charge might take you places where you definitely don't want to be... like in the crossfire of ravagers or right next to a grenade. That's why I avoid it if it's not safe.

[Ravennus]

Just wondering.... and maybe I'm wrong and someone more Math inclined could chime in...

But wouldn't the +25% health/shields be exactly equivalent to the +25% DR you would get from Rage anyway, were the Rage DR even working?

That was my thinking even before I tested and found out Rage was bugged (I'm on xbox, fyi - could confirm the DR didn't work there but maybe PC is different?).

My thought was that I'd prefer having the +25% durability on ALL the time vs. just when Rage was activated.... and then when I managed to string 3 melee kills together, the additional +30% DR would just be a nice bonus.

*shrugs* I think I'll still go that route even if/when they get around to fixing Rage, but we'll see. Just theorycrafting!

Still, congrats again. You must have been sweating bullets.... Reapers on Gold, and solo, is no easy feat!

[R0Gun13]

Nice one, love the video!

[Fortack]

I guess rendering and uploading the video was a lot harder than hunting Reaperized Pyjak and Varren. At least for someone like you

Great Video!
