Nice to see so many willing to help us novices. :) But please post you time zone too, so I don’t come bugging you in the middle of the night. ;)

I’m looking for help in Europe CET +2 (PST -10 ) (EST -7). I’m on PC and my Origin ID is MeiraE

I will be available for most of Sunday, from noon onwards.

I have played silver with Geth Infiltrator and I just got an Asari Adept, which I like a lot. Both are a bit squishy classes, but duck and cover seems to be working for me a bit better than charging right in (I experimented a bit with a vanguard until bugs forced me to stop). I just found some good tips on Geth Infiltrator builds and I was looking tips for Asari Adept build when I stumbled upon this tread.

I will pack my best equipment along! Not that it will be that shiny, but I’ll try my best. :)


EDIT:

I think that I will be going with the Asari Adept with:

4/6/6/6/4
Stasis: strenght
Warp: detonate, lasting damage, pierce
Throw: force, detonate, force & damage
Justicar: power damage & capacity, power damage, pistol weight
Fitness: durability

Ammo: Disruptor rounds 
Weapon: Pistol rail amp
Armor: Power Amp OR Effiency
Gear: Stronghold pac

Currently the Arch pistol is by far my best pistol, so I'll probably be using that.

GT: WyldByll10, xbox 360.  I just promoted my Sentinel (who I love playing). I promoted my Vanguard and Infy too. Adepts are getting my attention now. I am okay at playing Gold. I think I would be a good team member and help survive until extraction.

Don't underestimate the Human Adept; even if you're relatively new you should at least have that at a decent level... spec for the biggest biotic explosions ever and have a chuckle (try something like a 6/6/6/5/3 build). Even if you've not got decent guns it's a helluva good class against Reapers (as long as you don't get magneti-hands grabbed by Banshees - thankfully the shockwave buff from a few weeks ago makes that less likely) - I was rocking with one last night using only an Eagle 1 ;)

Singularity will take care of mobs of Husks and Cannibals (and Swarmers); the BEs (Warp > Shockwave) will destroy Ravagers and Brutes once you're close enough for Shockwave, leaving the biggest threats as Marauders and Banshees... but that's pretty much true with every class.

I'll doubtless be in many PuGs over the weekend... maybe even as an Eagle 1 wielding human adept ;)

With my friends we rarely win against reapers, we don't have the right mix and doesnt help one of my mates best weapon is the Pheaston x. As its a rarity we get together due to life commitments, I won't bother.
Why waste your time, wasting consumables and equipment when success is limited? You wont even contribute to the squad total, is it worth it for a free spectre pack?
I know I won't as I will have to play with randoms and no idea how good/bad they are.

Instead I will play on silver and bronze and know I can contribute. Every Bronze match I play even with experimental/classes/weapons we should get 4, same on silver with atleast 2 or 3 even if it goes horribly wrong otherwise thats 8 in less than an hour.

So if you wan to try, then please do as you never know, but after a few failures just excepet it and move to silver or bronze so those of us on 5 medi gels can get 6.

I don't care what N7 level you are, if you want to join my gold lobby just remember to pack a gun which can hurt gold lvl enemies and you'll do fine.

What guns are those? (I like to think that i'm fairly competent on silver, but i never tried gold)

I have a BE specced AA and HSentinel ready to go. I self-detonate, so can certainly paint/detonate for another biotic. I can extract Reapers on Silver if the team isn't too brain-dead, so should be nervous but capable this weekend.

Origin ID: KyreneZA
Time zone: GMT + 2
Available: 19:00 Friday to 05:00 Saturday (local time; 10:00 to 20:00 PST Friday) and possibly 18:00 to about 23:00 Saturday (local time; 09:00 to 14:00 PST Saturday) when not babysitting a friend who just got the game a week ago.

i've got a slightly over 1000 n7 rating.... and i often trail behind in the earlier waves.... but when things get hectic, i usually ramp up....  it's just play style.  the guy very well may have thrown out tons of punishment when the pressure is on.

That said -- F that guy for being a jerk.  this is a friggin game. we're in it to have fun, right?
I think it's funny when we wipe super early when we had no business wiping.  i just played a match where me and the one other guy -- who were the stronger of the four players died in round 2 -- his vorcha died out across the map - and i died trying to res him (the irony is he got stomped RIGHT before i got there... then i got mobbed by centurions and such....  We had to watch a low N7 infiltrator (from lack of experience, not non-promotion) clutch the rest of wave 2..   took him a while, but he did an admirable job.

When i wipe on an early wave, it's usually time for a good laugh.  who cares? load back up and try again!
(also the "horns of failure" from price is right are a wonderful soundbite over the mic for early wipes)

Given that most of them are buffs, and all of them were designed to make a range of strategies viable, hence opening the floodgates to whole hosts of different playstyles rather than limiting the scope to the players who were happy with constantly repeating the three or four most destructive strategies, then I'm afraid I'm going to have to disagree with you on that.

Richer gameplay experience. More diversity. Better game.

Rolling back the enemies' difficulty a little wouldn't entirely go amiss, what with the advent of Platinum, but snapping everything back so that only infiltrators are particularly useful in the highest tiers is - I can assure you as one of the average players who doesn't play Gold cos I'm terrified of pissing off the elitists - not going to draw more people up the ladder.

For everyone who is not confident to play on gold, is not that hard; is turning to be boring to say the truth. Everyday I and some friends play on U/U/G and we finish almost all matches with full extraction.

Here some tips, I hope that help someone:
* The cooperative gaming is extreme important. If you have a competitive nature, avoid seeing the score all the times. Remember: In the end, everyone gets exactly the same thing.
* Help your squad members. When my friends are offline and I need to play a random match, I see people just ignoring when someone falls in the ground or instant come back for using the Medi-Gel. Both ways are wrong. Help to get him back on his feet as soon as possible, you don’t need to kill everyone before get him back, a stun most of the times help. Use your Medi-Gel just when you see that’s no way out and is important for you to come back on that wave.
* Don’t walk alone in the map; have at last one person watching your back.
* Level is not as important as the gear you carry. Is common for me and my friends to rush some level one characters on U/U/G; just have enough equipment (Medi-Gel, Missile, Ammo Power, Gear Bonus, etc.). Have a good weapon and modifications are important as well.
* Don’t be afraid of the voice chat, when used properly it can help you a lot with strategies and help requests.

If someone actually finds interesting, add me on Origin and if some spot appears, I invite you for the game. The ID is BrunoKitsune, N7 something about 7300.

At Meira

The asari adept is my favorite class to play. First and most important max out stasis and take bubble. Some people go with the extra damage I believe in their 4 over duration. I take duration because you can stasis someone kill something else the hit the BE. You could also set the bubble in choke points. Bubble is a must.
Your throw and warp are good.
I go for radius and force with throw because the. Cool down is already fast.
We have the same layout for warp.
The justice branch I go for power bonus and capacity. I do not do tier 6.
I stop at 5. Then i put three on fitness. I tried 4 and 4 on justicar and fitness but like the power damage boost. Throw set for force will kill most minions husk troopers with one throw this way.
People say the extra health doesn't do much for the AA on gold because shes so low on health and shields but that's why I put some in. Give me a little more. Every bit helps I think.
You want to stay at medium to long range. Spam throw on minions if there is a group use stasis bubble and one guy with shields use warp. Unless he's close then Use stasis.
And biotic explosion is your friend. Set them off as often as possible. For weapon you want to get as close to 200% as possible. I use a carnfax and have a recharge of 180 so
Something. I also use structural economics for a faster recharge time. Hope that helped

@ Meira, I would not use disruptor ammo this weekend for a couple reasons. 1) It can make biotic explosions more difficult... if you fire your weapon in between warp and throw, you will have to use throw twice to make it detonate. Much better idea to use warp ammo if you are planning on using warp/throw combo -- which is highly effective against reaps. 2) I tend to use disruptor ammo when using a character with tech abilities or against geth as most of the geth (synthetics) are stunned by this type of ammo.

Don't get so concerned about bosses that you ignore the more mobile units like marauders and cannibals.  They will tear you up real fast if you don't pay attention to them.


Truth.  When playing Reaper Gold, it is usually the Marauders and Cannibals that end up killing players more than the Banshees or Brutes.  Don't negelct the Husks, either.  If they grab you, you become much more vulnerable to gunfire.

If you are one of the intimidated, try using one of the Vorcha classes and spec out your Bloodlust for Health Regen.  Energy Drain is great, but the you can only restore your shields against Banshees and Marauders (although there definitely are plenty of those on Gold).  Vanguards can also restore their shield using Biotic Charge, but effective use of that tactic on Gold requires some experience and can be tricky.

Cluster and Lift Grenade's are super useful against Reapers for detonating Biotic Explosions, so learn how to throw them.  The breakout pattern for CG's is tough to control, so throw them against a wall or just short of your target to maximize how many will hit.  Combined with a power like Area Reave, Cluster Grenades can be devastating.  If you use a class with grenades, try playing on Firebases Goddess, Jade, or Hydra...almost all the ammo boxes give 2 grenades per pickup.
