Great. Just great. In a week's time, the only class filling up gold lobbies will be ginfiltrators. As if we needed more ****ing infiltrators on this game.


Why did Bioware buff them so much?  :blink:

It's not just the Proximity Mines either.  Melee amps and shield regen cells benefit them more than many others.  I didn't demonstrate it in the video, but it's just ridiculous what they can do with those things.

You know what though, earlier in the patch notes thread I was going to call BS on your claim of scoring higher than the rest of your team combined, and was going to ask for proof...but then I decided I didn't really care. I'll have to check these vids out later when I have more time. Don't sweat the haters over video quality.

Well there's your proof in the OP, and shame on you for doubting me.  It's actually DISTURBINGLY COMMON for me to score higher than the rest of my team combined.  Out of five GI games played tonight (I played another after I posted this thread), I scored higher than my whole team combined 3 times, and that's not unusual for me.  The divide is actually significantly wider if I actually go all out and use equipment.  :-\\

It's actually pretty frustrating.  I wish my teammates would help more.

Well unfortunately it seems most players these days are completely lost outside of FBWGG, so...

I didn't go for any melee on mine. I went smart choke and hunter mode accuracy for some sick headshots. It's accurate enough to one shot gold phantoms from 20m away and OHK a lot of other things even at ranges of 40m+. 3 shot Geth Primes too.

But the thing is that you don't need to sacrifice shotgun headshot utility to go for phantom-swarm-evaporating melee.  You can totally do both.  I do!  And I use the Smart Choke on larger maps over the bayonet (and maybe take a strength amplifier to compensate).

@GodlessPaladin

Btw i suggest to never look at scores again, i've stopped it and start to regain some faith in the random players of this game even skip the final board as often as possible, the last time i checked on a pubmatch, i basically soloed it (and got called cheater)

I like to use a max accuracy/damage Claymore GI because it works great on all maps and is a bit safer (you can still headshot from like 40 meters away), but your build looks amazing for speed runs, I'll have to try it.

Have you tried the Black Widow on the GI? I enjoy it because you can shoot through walls and never actually be in danger. Shield gating isn't a problem since the BW lets you fire three rounds, and it's safer than the Salarian infiltrator because you're always behind "cover". I've recently soloed geth gold with the GI using the BW, will be uploading that once I've redone it in higher quality.

As for your recording problems, if your computer is good enough you could buy ME3 for the PC and just record from there. $60 is a lot less than $300~

  Yes, and it was slower.  Very effective, yes, but not AS effective.

The problem with that idea is the time investment required to gain equipment.  I'm not willing to go through that a second time.

I saw the post you deleted, and my sugestions would be... FB Hydra, Condor, or even Dagger. I just want to see how to be so aggressive, potentially exposed to Ravagers, or that Cannibal and Marauder that shoots you out of nowhere... and also the various armored units.

Well, I might post more videos later, though I'm done playing for tonight.  However, if you want proof of concept before then, there are some old videos floating around of people doing things like Gold duos on FB Dagger with things like SabreSandiego's human infiltrator.  The Geth Infiltrator is like that, except better.  Remember that the melee is just a bonus on top of something that's already pretty badass all on its own and works against every faction... one-upping the human shotgun infiltrator.  Just like the Salarian Infiltrator, the Geth Infiltrator has a bit more trouble against Reapers, but it's still GOOD.

In fact, the main problem for the awesome Human Claymore Infiltrator build SabreSandiego suggested was, in my experience, SWARMERS.  For the Geth Infiltrator, you can simply wipe them out with proximity mines.  However, a swarmer grabbing you is even deadlier than normal, so you gotta pay attention to the little buggers.

firebase glacier and to a lesser extent fb:w (interior of the building) is designed esp for CQC and aoe so naturally a shotgun infil is going to excel but I dont believe they can do so well in a wide/open map like condor, hydra, dagger, ghost, giant where enemies can be taken down conveniently as they spawn. I only played one match with SabreSandiego on condor against cerberus (not as easy to head shot them compared to geth) which he hosted and I lagged very badly too (almost half the world away from him) and I kept within 10k of his human infiltrator build and prob wouldve beaten him comfortably had I hosted the match. he was in the central area with 3 other players and I was alone in the lower left bunker. in the end I fired 3 missiles in the wave 10 obj and ended around 3k short of his score. so I wouldve beaten his infil by about 10k (by my estimation) without the ridiculous lag, while never moving more than 3m from the ammo cache. if it was versus geth I wouldve trounced his score by 20k.

Just finished a Reapers/Gold/Giant match and frickin destroyed face. Loadout was Graal w/ Ext barrel and spare clips, no mods.

And my teammates were a Tuian soldier, Human engineer and a level 15 BF3 soldier.

Conclusions: Graal is an absolute beast vs. reapers as you can kill brutes and ravagers in one cloak cycle. Interior area provides a lot of cover for some hot, sweet plasma melting action. There's also more cover in the centre area than you might think - the hack objective there actually went pretty well.

I normally don't play public gold matches, but in the random silver games I join the my scores are absurd (highest was greater than rest of team combined + 10k). That's more a reflection on the insane power of the Geth Infiltrator than skill on my part.

silly build man..... if your gonna use melee and spec your prox mine for the 25% dmg increase why on earth wouldnt you take cloak all the way up to fire 1 power while cloaked???? your losing your 50% melee bonus if you prox a group then go in for a melee...

but yes a geth infil if you spec for melee and play smart.. its the most overpowered build in the game...
i specced mine like that day 1 and the first map i played igot a kill streak off of melee, and i havnt looked back since..

You can melt groups of hunters, phantoms, pyros, within a second on ANY difficulty setting.... and one day im sure it will be nerfed

but until then my friends melt those faces off..

I think they should nerf the Geth Infiltrator, things are just so easy with him.

A sniper can't dominate on Dagger/Hydra or whatever as much as a shotgun infiltrator can dominate on White/Glacier.

but I dont believe they can do so well in a wide/open map like condor, hydra, dagger, ghost, giant where enemies can be taken down conveniently as they spawn.


Wrong.

And believe it or not, the lag was pretty bad.

Looks like spamming and having a good gun, though that is the game.

your scores are a lot higher than the rest of the team but with the sal infil I averaged about 130k per match in firebase white when teams stayed in the central area and snipers competed against one another. not when you play at desk while one guy is able to amass kills from else where:-

dagger:-

got a 170k match I didnt screen on dagger too.

your condor score is low compared to what I get compared to the rest of the team btw, in the same sense to what a melee GI get compared to the rest of the team in glacier.

But the total score on your matches is above 370k. Mine is around 260k for some reason. No idea why. But I did outscore the entire team combined. That's pretty significant.

I just completed a Glacier/Cerberus, unfortunately I screwed up and didn't take the screenshot. All I have is this

I don't think a sniper can dominate that much.

Well like I said the lag was pretty bad at times. And I spent almost an entire round watching from the sidelines because of a stupid banshee who insta killed me when she shouldn't have been in range to do so. But anyway, I did finish first, and by a comfortable margin, even with another infiltrator on the team. I think that proves shotgun infiltrators can be effective on larger maps.

I think you underestimate the range of the Claymore. If you choose the extra accuracy in hunter mode and use a smart choke V, the range is really good. I can sit right next to a sniper and be 80% as efficient as him.

Not necessarily. It's just that on smaller maps, I can kill things so damn fast that most of the time my teammates don't have time to score points.

Honestly Prox Mine is a waste of time.

Everything dies in 2 melee's anyways.

The only thing it would be mildly good against is Atlases.
