Adding some team play videos with my friend Arelex and two pubs.

So wait, can you detonate Tech Bursts with an Arc Grenade that were also set up with an Arc Grenade, or do the detonator and primer have to be different powers and you basically need Disruptor ammo to rock this out?

Sorry if the answer is obvious from the video but I can't watch it yet, and as enamored as I am wth the Vorcha Sentinel I did want to get into this guy next. Thanks in advance, bro.

Added a team gameplay video.  I recorded more than one run though if people want me to upload more.

No idea about that. I have detonated tech bursts with the grenades but no idea what primed them. I have also done fire explosions by myself. Incinerate + arc grenade.

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


I was thinking the same thing I unlocked him and played one match before finishing for the night. Seems like extra grenades are a must at level 5 unless you have the new mod though I took extra damage and was hitting the ammocrate way too often

Your skills/abilities are obvious from your vids and it is even more impressive that you do so on the Xbox and not the PC. (PC players can hate but mouse & keyboard >>> controller all day, every day)

However, I've only watched three of your videos and each of the video is on the cerberus lab where you are doing crazy burst damage at the spawn points.  GI with your tactical cloak/melee.  Drell Adept with Reave/Cluster grenades.  Now QME with Arc Grenades/Incinerate.  It is very effective, but what about other maps?

And I tried to watch your team play video but copyright will not let me view it here in the USA.

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.


I'm with you here, but it's ridiculous that the Krysae often fires blanks, at least when you're not hosting. You'd think that after fixing the Falcon in the new patch the developers would have been able to release a new gun that doesn't fall victim to the same problem!

Can you deal headshot damage with the new gun? I haven't been able to tell (although not getting the headshot medal at the end of a match might be a clue).

Actually, I'd say the single most important thing is to take the OTHER evolution at level 5, since it gives the grenades an effect that can be detonated for 10 seconds on everything in 8 meters.

unless you have the new mod


Patch isn't out for 360 yet.

What map would you like me to run?  I do other maps too.

For example: Condor GI: www.youtube.com/watch

Started to watch the video, but got turned off by the music. If I wanted to listen to music, I would listen to music. I have that power. When I watch an instructional video, I expect commentary, or just gameplay audio. So not watching any more of these videos, that's for sure. Why do people think we want to hear their crappy music choices?

Because some people told me they liked my crappy music choices.  Different strokes, I guess. *Shrug*

If you like, I can send you a version without the music.

I'll concur on that. I haven't played in a month, picked up MQE in my first reinforcement pack and ran him for only a handful of bronze games so far just to get a feel for the class and to level my engineer back up (having just promoted), and I can already tell you the trailing electrical DoT is a must-have for tech bursting. Especially in light of the fact you can reliably restock grenades without having to pop an ammo pack (when the crap did that happen?). That's mega-true if you have a friendly player in your neighborhood who's packing overload and/or energy drain and will go haywire with you after an arc grenade pops.

If you were to do it again would you tale the same weapon?

  Sure!  It's a very good weapon, but kinda silly on Infiltrators with all of their sniper rifle synergy. 

What consumable buffs and gear did you use?

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.

Or you could just, mute the video?

Jeez, BSN sure likes to b*tch about anything regarding GodlessPaladin's videos.

Really don't know anything about the rest of the BSN, this was my first go 'round with a GP video. If lots of people are "complaining", though, maybe he should try a different approach? No need to reinvent the wheel, just give people the basics, no frills, no bells and whistles. Just the facts, ma'am.

Nice gameplay, as always.

But I wanted to thank you for the song (Reignite). I've heard it for the first time in your video and I'm completely in love with it now :)

UPD: Now that's funny, half of the thread seems to be about your music choices :D Don't pay attention to either of us, just keep making the vids however you see fit, you're good at it.

The new sniper is not OP, the AOE is not very large...

It's much larger than the AOE of the Black Widow, Valiant, or Widow. If you're used to aiming a regular sniper rifle, a 'small AOE' is still a huge area.

...it cannot headshot...

It doesn't need to. None of the bosses have head areas and all the none bosses can die to body shots.

...and on occasion the shots disappear.

I played with it for several hours last night and had no disappearing shots. Are you suggesting BioWare balance guns and powers around the idea that people will lag and the shots might not connect?

Not to mention the ammo count and clip size.

It's comparable to the Widow, and much more generous (and lighter weight) than the Javlin.

Glad I could introduce you to the song, then :)

So I gave the Male Quarian a try last night. I gotta say that I really enjoyed him, but I just can't wrap my head around Tech Bursts..

I get the whole Incinerate >< Arc Grenade, but you mentioned that disrupter ammo can also set them up or set them off? I've never seen that actually happen.. I did 3 runs last night with distruptor ammo 3 and it never seemed to proc or set up. I used Revenant for one run and the other two used Krysae.

Oh and does Arc Grenades 10sec thingy really set up multiple bursts in a row? so if I do Arc > Incinerate > Incinerate I'll get two tech bursts from that?

Yeah. I wasn't a fan of the music either(first song anyway, didn't watch enough to catch the rest) but since Godless Paladin owes us exactly jack excrement and it's his video, I was gonna keep my mouth shut and be thankful for his knowledge of the game.

At first I believed the quarian engineer would be inferior to the quarian infiltrator, and once I unlock one and put a reegar electric flamethrower in his hands for some flame thrower out of cloak ridiculousness it will be a close battle.

But the quarian engineer is a killsteak machine. I think once I respec him a bit he could even surpass my batarian soldier for instant mass death attacks.

+1 to grenade capacity really isn't worth wasting power evolution for, especially now that the same can be gotten from even level 1 grenade capacity gear(to say nothink about higher levels of that).
So damm annoying they went and gave the new grenade power that pitiful evolution, especially as they just resently buffed some of the grenade powers evolutions to the worth considering +2 grenade capacity.

Thanks for the video and great choice of music. I did not even know that such a beautiful song exists.

Looks like I have to respec my MQE. I skipped Incinerate to see what a fully-specced Tactical Scan can do and the result was underwhelming.

Too mainstream music will get your video banned in several countries because of copy rights issues, preventing youtube viewers from those countries seeing your videos. Also most people probably don't want to listen gameplay audio that is recorded with cell phone or camera, so music is nice.
