Good job, this is more of a testament to the claymore than the QFE though.


The Claymore is obviously a very good weapon (there are plenty others like it though) but I wouldn't been able to pull this off without the turret distracting one or two Banshee (for minutes - Banshee can't kill turrets :), or without the CC and debuffing ability of Cryo Blast. Incinerate plays a small role, but that power needs to be fixed and buffed to become good. The Claymore is the real killer yet it's everything working in tandem that allows it to shine. I think you give too little credit to the FQE.


I think I'll try the Clay-build, I run her with Harrier (AP and EB mods) and Incendiary ammo IV Cyclo IV and its great fun. Also completely skipped Incinerate, Cryoblast is awesome ability. Hehe, since I got Harrier my FQE doesn't know that other guns still exist...

Well done Fortack! That was fun to watch and the music choice is great.
One of the best players out there with no doubt and unstoppable with the Claymi'Amore. I liked the usage of the turret against the Banshees.

Keep up with the good work, Fortack.

Jiggly quarian bumbum? I approve.
The video lacks some serious hugging though. <3
Just kidding, nicely done LordClaymore ;)

Impressive! Love the video. I'll have to give this build a try as I never used a heavy weapon with a QFE. As you mentioned, the focus for damage is the Claymore and the powers are used as distractions and debuffs. In a squad, you can rely on teammates for damage, but obviously, going solo, you need to pack something with a little more punch.

Just tried this... got half-way through wave 2 and died. Admittedly further than I've been able to get on gold solo before... I probably wasn't camping in a great place either (left of the starting position - I haven't watched the video yet so I don't know what you did.).

Great post and great playing. I'm terrible at FQE and at soloing (always make one small mistake and get myself killed like an idiot), so I'm doubly impressed. Never gave Cryo much thought, I see that is my issue now!

All the nice words are making Claymi blush - good thing she has her mask or her fearsome reputation would go to waste ;)

Ignore the people saying the Claymore did it all. Obviously it did a lot, but the skill set of the QFE in synergy with the Claymore is awesome versus Reapers. So much armour, so little shields. Well built.

Saying that, I would be even more impressed if you could do it with another weapon too... whenever I take my Turian Soldier on a proving mission all I get is "Nice Hurricane". It's good to crack out the Rev and do it again! :P


Cheers :wizard:

I like to play solo at times, but the best thing (for me) about MP is playing with friends. Good point about the Rev. I don't like using it on small targets (poor accuracy) but it should be great versus the stuff that is hard to miss. And without enemy armor damage reduction ...

Thanks! In my opinion one shouldn't be too reliant on ones teammates. Helping each other wherever possible is great, but playing without killing enemies isn't my cup of tea ;)

The Claymore is one of the heaviest weapons so she might not be the best gun if you like to use powers more frequently. But like I said in the OP, a good weapon can be really good to make the most out of the FQE's powers. You can use all 3 "elemental" ammo types (Disruptor, Cryo and Incendiary) to create your own tech combos. That alone will make the FQE a much better "caster". Weapons such as the Talon, Paladin (or Carnifex) and Hurricane weigh close to nothing; the Wraith, GPS, Graal, and Harrier have very little impact on cooldowns. I would definitely take one of those. It's best to try them all to find your own personal favorite (balance between using weapons and casting powers).

When you play solo camping somewhere is usually a bad idea. It's better to stay mobile. Pick a good defensible spot, kill as many enemies as you can, and when there are too many / you get flanked - get the hell out of there and find yourself a new position on the other side of the map and let the enemies come to you again. Patience, knowing what you can and cannot do, having a good idea what is going on around you, working systematically are the most important things IMO.

Nicely done Fortack. I only just finally reunlocked my FQE (loved her in the demo, got the phoniex and vorcha before her in the retail?!), and I wish I could build two. Just as with the humans currently, I've wanted to build one with the Hurricane and one with the Claymore. Nice to see it's as capable as I believed it to be, I have been a huge a proponent of Cryo Blast. My double cryo/hurricane HI enjoys it's power.


Thanks! Yeah I like Cryo Blast a lot too. Never used it that much with the human Infiltrators - didn't need its CC ability b/c Cloak kept them out of major trouble (good for taking down the big guys though). The promotional packs have blessed me with the Hurrican V so I might give that death machine a go combined with Cryo Blast and Cloak :)


Yeah Cryo cools down faster enough to cast it twice under one Cloak even without the duration evolution (and of course with bonus power evo).  It allows my Ice Ninja to control and debuff two groups similtaneously, typically freezing one cluster our teammates are fighting and another cluster for her Cloaked attack.  Hurricane III + AP rounds + SMG rail + Cryo debuff = dead gold Ravager in less than a clip, so your Hurri V will be even better.

Kudos again on the Quarian. Look forward to finally being able to run mine more.

You got an interesting build there Simbacca, that sounds pretty cool. I've always considered the "cast a power and remain hidden" quite useless, but what you're describing should make it really good. I'm always low on shotgun amps but have over a hundred SMG ones - might be a good time to give those to the Ice Ninja :)

Cheers :wizard:

Brillant work. One of the reasons why I like the FQE is because she can use almost any weapon.
I'm going to try the Claymore. I have 37 shotguns amps waiting to be used, hah.

And I really hope next week Bioware will release a patch with the incinerate fix.
