EDIT:  Note that this is pre-patch and there's no grenade gear or reduced time between waves or anything.  The DLC came out before the patch on X360

So, unlocked my first new character, the Male Quarian Engineer, and my first new gun, the Krysae Sniper Rifle, and thought I'd take 'em for a spin with a solo round.  I thought you guys might find the results useful/enjoyable, so here you go.  Enjoy!  And please excuse the poor video quality (I still can't get the Dazzle to work... sigh.  Any advice on that front is welcome).

Solo Video: www.youtube.com/watch

The MQE feels kinda like the Drell Adept to me... except for Geth instead of Reapers.  He can just wipe out spawn points outright with those Arc Grenades and tech bursts.

Also, the Krysae is handy for setting up Tech Bursts with Disruptor Ammo, much like a Falcon that does more damage.

EDIT:
Team Video (Playing with Arelex and 2 pubs):  www.youtube.com/watch

In the Team Video I'm just using Disruptor Ammo I and nothing else.  In the Solo vid I'm using Cyclonic Modulator III, Disruptor Ammo III, and a Sniper Rail Amp III.

i was disappointed when i unlocked him but if your soloing gold with him ill have to give him a chance. any chance on you posting your build you choose to go with?

[Maria Caliban]

I love the Krysae, but people are already calling for it to be nurfed.

Do you see it as substantially better than other sniper rifles?

[Oodle12]

That's some horrible video quality u got there

I think it's a bit early for me to judge that.  I've only tried it out on the MQE against Geth.  I'll get back to you when I've tried it on the only class that I actually use normal sniper rifles on... the Infiltrators.  And against all enemy types. 

It strikes me as filling a different role than most sniper rifles, which seems like a straight buff to Tactical Cloak's 40% sniper rifle damage bonus.  And hell, I'd take it over the Falcon any day.

Without headshots, but still OP, agree.

[GodlessPaladin]

Most of the damage and kills in the video are coming from arc grenades and tech bursts.

It can't penetrate cover at all, it does have its weaknesses, but is a great riffle.  Not as OP as the GPS though.

Have you thought about rising the camera on level with your screen, like where your head would be? MGS music!

Too bad the sniper has trouble working if you're not the host. It shoots and explodes but does no damage at all (depending on the hosts connection).

[defleshing]

did you take area damage for incinerator? and for the nades which on the fifth level extra nade or electric damage ?

Electric damage for tech bursts.  Area damage for Incinerate... also for tech bursts.

The effectiveness is coming from the Arc Grenades and mass tech bursts.  You don't really need the Krysae to do this.

Edit: Answered my question, never mind,

But yeah that's pretty much how I play it as well. Love it.

It's worth it because Incinerate has a tendency to miss stupidly and the area effect makes up for that.

[WizeMan305]

I haven't unlocked the engineer yet but your builds always are delightful. I was curious to know what build set up did you use. Also is it Arc > Incinerate > Fire explosion? Or is it just a Tech burst in that order?

PS Tried your GIClaymore melee and it worked amazing well at level 14. I need a bit more practice with it and it will be a monster.

Fair enough. But what about your build in regards to tactical scan and fitness? I'm currently going with a 6/6/6/5/3 build with aoe scan to help give awareness for the team, but occasionally I find myself getting owned very fast since my health/shields aren't that great.

Its not really a sniper rifle, is it?

You can fire it from the hip (because of the explosive rounds), it fires fast, has a large mag, does big damage up close and long range as well, and its realtively light weight. Its like the mattock with more power and splash damage.

I love the gun as well, but can't help feeling it is OP. I hope they will not nerf it, but will introduce new levels of difficulty...

Tactical Scan:  3 ranks only.
Incinerate:  Radius / Burning Damage / Armor Damage
Arc Grenade:  Damage / Electrical Damage / Shield Overload
Quarian Defender:  Damage and Capacity / Power Damage
Fitness:  All bottom row

Also is it Arc > Incinerate > Fire explosion? Or is it just a Tech burst in that order?

  Arc Grenades both set off and set up tech bursts, and the setup lasts for 10 seconds, giving you ample time to set off multiple bursts.  This is in addition to them dealing some considerable damage on their own, which means fire explosions are a snap too.  Like I said, this guy can wipe out spawn points pretty easily.

It can fire from the hip however you will still get that large damage reduction that comes from most snipers firing from the hip.

The people who whining to nerf everything need to shut it and play the game for awhile longer, take a closer look at things, and get a better perspective.

The new sniper is not OP, the AOE is not very large, it cannot headshot, and on occasion the shots disappear. Not to mention the ammo count and clip size.

The reegar is a freaking flamethrower, it is supposed to do massive damage at point-blank ranges. The lack of ammo and range are significant factors in its balance.

Don't have auto-mattock cannot speculate.

I dislike whiners who cry about nerfing everything. Just because something is working as intended does not mean it is OP.

I like how it's a mixture of the leaving earth song and a future for the krogan.

If you were to do it again would you tale the same weapon?  What consumable buffs and gear did you use?
