I think phantom idea in general is animeish and stupid, tough ill kinda let it slide since fiction is fiction. Anyone should know that you dont bring a sword into a gun fight, unless ofc youre a jedi or something. Bayonettes and combat knives are ok, but dont bring a sword...

Ballistic Blades for the stagger, and Batarian Heavy Melee for the finish. Head explodes. Satisfaction. :devil: I once even had the satisifaction of watching one's head explode AND see its corpse rag doll across the map. <3


Whenever I fire Ballistic Blades at a Phantom it doesn't stagger them. They also don't use their magic barrier of invunerability. They just ignore it completely.

Fortunatly I've come up with a solution (having a charged Graal shot ready, when I begin the Heavy melee it fires and THAT staggers them), but it's still annoying.

Phantoms are great. They keep you on your toes. You're feelin' real good for toppin the chart on gold against that geth infiltrator but you're too smug and you let your guard down. Next thing you know you're in a nasty prison shower scene.

you say you stick up for those being bullied, but it seems like the majority of the people here see you as a "troll" (barely know what this internet exclusive word means, but it seems to refer to rude people who are unliked by the community). you tell people to contribute to a topic by taking up twice as much text space and not contributing at all yourself. i believe this is the example of "hypocrisy" you were speaking of. wanting others to be contributors but not being one yourself. list of insults you used: hypocrites, arrogant, dickwad, gradeschoolers, undeserving. i would consider these insults, "pal." 


Yes, I do stick up for them.  And I find it utterly hilarious how you can take an incredibly insignificant amount of people and claim them to be 'the majority'.  Hard to take you seriously.

And no, I'm not a hypocrite.  I made no claims that I'm a master of phantoms did I.  Telling someone who insinuates that they're some phantom master to actually maybe give you the tips you were seeking if he did in fact know so much, does not then mean that I myself have to supply such tips.  If you actually think that it does then you really need to brush up on your logical skills, cause they're incredibly flawed.

And tell me, of those insults you listed, how many of them were said where I was the instigator?  For example, if someone calls me a dickwad and I say it back with sarcasm in reply, not sure that makes me the bad one there pal.

The fact is that I said a perfectly valid comment in your defense and you decided to turn it around on me and target me because you thought you could score some brownie points with some stupid clique or something.  Well yay for you!  Here, have a cookie.

It's fun to hit the little phantom ballet dancer with a few cryo shots from the falcon and watch them fly over an atlus mid flip.

If she has her hands up in the air you won't do **** too her till she goes into to cover or goes back to moving.

You'll have to wait till you or someone staggers her.  Thats why generally the GPS/Graal is the better shotgun on the Phantom since a charged shot will stagger them.  But I hate chargeing weapons.

Once agian thanks for you wall of text that has little to do with the thread.

You also spread misinformation in other threads too.  I'm sure you've been shuffled off to the same group that Talon and Descy are proud to be, trolls.


You're even more laughable then the other dude is.  I mean, here you swoop in and attack me personally and call me out in ways that are COMPLETLEY unacceptable within the rules of the forum, and then when I defend myself you try and pass it off as if I'm the one to blame for derailing the thread?  ROFLMAO.    That is just too damn funny.

And I have spread NO misinformation on here.  None.  Instead, at times I've stepped in and set certain records straight from misinformation spread by false elitists that don't know what they're talking about.  If you want to accuse me of misinformation, then how bout ya prove it son?  Come bring before me this plethora of misinformation.  Chances are you'll come back with nothing more than statements you simply disagree with.  Hey, newsflash pal; your disagreeing with the positions I hold does not mean it is the spreading of misinformation.  In order for it to be misinformation you have to be able to actually defend your position (which they never seem to be able to do, instead using childish personal attacks in place of actual reasonable argument), and defend it in a way that actually disproves what the other person is saying.  If that person then continues to repeat his argument anyway, Only THEN is it the spread of misinformation.   But just someone having a position different than yours?  Nope.  Not quite.  That just means you are too fragile and can't handle someone that comes in with a position that god forbid doesn't align with yours or that doesn't bow down to the false elite as the be all end alls.  My only advice for that would be boo hoo.  Get over it.

My only last statement would be again calling out your hypocrisy and unacceptable behavior.  Calling those other members out as trolls is quite blatantly against the rules, unacceptable and disgusting.

I shoot them with my BW, they die, end of story.

Whoever said they can block weapons with that handmovement they use to block powers, I have never experienced that, might be weapon specific (possibly amor piercing works against it, the BW has inate AP).


Seemingly weird hitzones, especially during lags, been there, less damage during flips, yes, seen that,  I've never really seen her flip that much when using the BW weirdly enough, full auto stuff will make them dance though, which makes it even worse if you're throwing powers that you know are ineffective, or use some peashooter that won't make a dent in her barrier.

Do a solo match on Gold vs phantom.

Use a Human infiltrator with Cyro blast

Shoot her with Cyro and then a Black Widow, by the time you get the 2nd (even 1st) she'll put her hands up and you'll do zero damage.  Other times I've been able to knock off a headshot when she does this but more often then not your weapon damage will be nullified.

the blue hands give them very high damage or invincibility from weapon. idk. i just dont shoot them. its usually not a problem for snipers because they dont force them into flips and weapons dont force them to use their anit power god mode

Wrong.  Everybody that doesn't like what I have to say and makes their opions vocal, seemed to dislike me.  Kinda a given there pal.

And the statement made perfect sense. Maybe it was too complex of a statement for you.

I didn't tell people to be contributors.  I told one poster who claimed that he knew what he was talking about to actually, like, ya know, share his knowledge.  Oh my goodness!  How dare I!  Bad Reality.  Bad.

As far as your little dickwad argument goes I said nothing about being on a higher level.  Instead, I made a distinction between being attacked and actually attacking.  Again, maybe the concept was too complex for you.

And I LOVE your little 'bullied in high school' comment lol.  I mean my goodness, how absolutely creative of you!  We should all bow down to your use of gradeschool antics and attacks.  What next?  Are you gonna tell me how I live in my mommas basement?  C'mon, you know you want to.  How friggin pathetic lol.

As far as sticking up for you, I absolutely did.  Trust me when I say that mistake will not be repeated.  

And the dickwad comment was the first that came to mind.  Again, take any insult and show me where I was the instigator ok?  Thanks. 

Oh, and ps.  Look at what extent you will go through, reply after reply, with the sole purpose of attacking me and discrediting me.  One wee lil guy who made a comment you didn't like (boo hoo), and yet you would rather derail your own thread and invest a ton of time attacking him instead of just like, gee, getting over it.  Tell me, what does that say about you?  Oops.  Forget I asked.  Probably far too complex of a question,

Phantoms are a pain to deal with, but that's what a Krogan is for. Otherwise, strip shields and always have backup. Also, I've given up using heavy, one-shot weapons on phantoms. Spray them with automatic fire.

Oh, and don't forget using survival packs when kiting. Those hand blasters are nasty.

I don't solo gold, I have a life and a girlfriend.
Shouldn't change anything regarding Phantom mechanics re: a regular gold match, should it?

I don't hit her with any powers, I just shoot her the  oldfashioned way.
No flipping, no damage blocking, if she comes head on, go for the HS first, that should strip her of the barriers and stop her (not stagger her) proceed to put the second shot anywhere in her, that will kill her for good.

You can go for 2 Bodyshots to kill the barrier and kill her with the 3rd, works just as well, you just have to be quick.

I don't say she cannot block me, just that they never block me because I never use powers (save for stasis when playing asari or the net when playing batarian) on her.

Sometimes the simple stuff works.

Only told you to solo since it takes to wave two when they start to show up.  Only asked you to use a power since most of the time in a team someone would've already used it.

No, you did it to subtly imply I don't know what I'm doing because I don't grind my way through a solo game, you cheeky little phantom killer you.

I take any PUG game over any solo effort, thank you very much, though I realise some of my more outlandish experiments might annoy other people from time to time.

I'm probably not that good either, that even I kill phantoms fairly regularly should further dispel nerf notions however, eh?

Which is why they shouldn't, I have no qualms telling them that, I also have no qualms eating my words if they get close to me and use a medigel (if possible) so I don't endanger johnny Salarian trying to revive me.

Sometimes a phantom gets you, that's life, no reason to nerf them just because of it.

If gold phantom is too hard for you, play silver, but don't call for nerfs... There are already people who find gold too easy, why would you spoil the game for them?

You're projecting.

I always defend my positions with fact and reasoning.  You are the one deflecting context.  You also claim to not give a damn yet you keep replying.  You claim I take it to no end yet you are partaking in the same.  Both hold true about the other dude too.  The difference is, I am the one being personally attacked, and you bet your ass I will always stand up and defend against it.  You both though, are putting way too much effort into some worthless smear campaign against some anonymous internet poster.  I mean seriously, I said something you didn't like.  Get over it. 

As far as my manifest goes, I hid it yesterday because I thought it was just downright pathetic how some here actually look at them and then try to use it against the person in some pathetic illogical argument (kinda like how you just did lmao).  Nothing all that remarkable about mine.   People have seen it.  Everything at level X but some ultra rares.  Whoopie!

As far as your want for me to GTFO, as long as you two kids want to continue attacking me I'm gonna continue to reply in defense.  I have no other motivation to continue posting in this thread outside of that.
