1) I have learnt that even though I am not the worst player ... I am still waaaaaaay better than I give myself credit for ...
2) That I still can't solo gold waves after wave 3
3) I love my Turian Sentinel (6-6-6-4-4)
4) Staggering warped banshees so they drop your friend is near impossible now even using a claymore x with AP ammo 3, Shotgun Rail amp 3, Beserker package 2
5) There is no way to help yourself when you are a second away from being sync killed
6) Last but not least ... The Claymore X with AP Ammo 3, Rail Amp 3 and Beserker package 2 will annihilate everything except a fully shielded Maruader and it won't even tickle a Banshee 80% of the time


::: EDIT :::

Even though N7 levels mean nothing ... Being 29 in my country still makes me feel good even though I suck

1) MagnetHands are still not fixed
2) Three Marauders kill just about anyone in four seconds
3) My sniper SI with duration TC and Widow-VI and proper equipments is still one of the strongest characters
4) Hacking on Dagger on Gold in W10 is a nightmare. Seriously. 3 Brutes, 2 Banshees, a few Marauders and at least 2 Ravagers camped at the second objective, resulting in a wipe even with properly used consumables.

1.) BW still sucks at decision making(See all the banshee messages before my message, they tell all you need to know) OR there is still someone in their dev group who drops the ball often :S which would scare me more, considering other things may get the "banshee" treatment.
2.) Weekend events and gold dont mix. so many people who clearly lack the gear and skills to play on gold anywhere outside FBWGG, joining mid game, and just sitting in a corner doing nothing but moving back and forth every now and then(Impressive Anti-AFK system there)

You don't need a mic if you have a good team

[xxHarbinger]

I f-ing hate the crap out of reapers now. I'm going back to Glacier Cerberus Gold

[pantherdan]

That it takes 3 clips from my Harrier to kill one Banshee. Or one rocket to kill 2 Banshees and 2 Brutes. That was my most satisfying gold moment.

Things I learnt this weekend

1. Kill Marauders first so they don't kill the flimsy team-members
2. Krogans can still melee (just be damn selective about it)
3. Turian Sentinel rocks when you have other biotics in the team
4. Banshees still hump turrets!
5. Smart Vanguards are an asset! OMG!
6. Large maps make waves 7+ easy to solo
7. On a good connection I can solo a wave 7-9
8. Ravagers are fun to run circles around
9. Three banshees with a cobra is sooooo satisfying! Take that as you will
10. I need to upgrade my gear items asap!
11, Have eyes in the back of my head to know if a teammate is blocking you from retreating from a Banshee before she grabs you!

[Jzargo]

That biotic teams will tear through reapers so fast that Harbinger cant even assume direct control.

[wyatt1048]

That Asari Justicars can sidle out of a Banshee's grip iof you hammer space enough. I guess centuries of hunting Ardat Yakshi alone have given them the ability to evade hugs. Either that, or there's a bug there.

[Uchimura]

I've learned not to be the only non-infiltrator in a team full of infiltrators. *run away run away.. everything is after you*

Oh, and also that pugging in random gold reapers isn't actually that hard, even with low N7 players with the crappiest weapons you can think of.

That the Turricane w/ AP mods & marksman laughs at w/e comes its way.

[Maka720]

I have learned that amazingly enough Cannibals are Psychic, and know exactly when to throw a grenade to force you to leave your cover at the worse possible time.

That I've been playing this game and every Operation since day 1 and still havent unlocked the SMG High Caliber Barrel.

And people cant stand a having a 120 N7 level player in their game for some reason.  

Tell me about it... I've yet to see a single AR EB or piercing mod EVER and I've maxed out my barrel mods for all my other weapons. I think... Not sure about my SMGs.

Whilst it may be true in some parts of the world, it's not on my side of the Atlantic. (Same with "whilst.")

Source: I'm a former college writing instructor, newspaper editor, and magazine editor. I've talked about this issue many times with other writing instructors and editors. In the United States, the best you're going to find are people who frown upon it but accept it. Most people would get out the red pen and cross it out, and replace it with something less pretentious, like "learned."

Proof that educational standards are considerably lower on your side of the Atlantic, I'd say. And maybe that job interviews are easier.

 

I do believe Canadian standards are higher than those of the United Kingdom. :happy:

You mean after they've already picked you up?

OK, I got my first full extraction on gold, the first time I topped the leaderboard on gold, and the first time I scored over 100k all in one match. For a silver player who had had a handful of gold matches before this weekend, none of them going to extraction, that isn't bad. Thank you team mates - and thank you BW for the challenge. I've learned that I can play gold against reapers at least.

[CitizenThom]

I think what I've learned from this weekend, is how to run away, and run away in such a fashion as to put objects between your back and the marauders, ravagers and cannibals who would be shooting you in the back otherwise.

[Jebel Krong]

- a 4 second cloak is totally useless as anything but a power-boost for sniping, no tactical applications whatsoever - thanks again nerfers!
- biotics and krysae make reaper mincemeat.
- banshee magnet hands can grab you from impossible ranges.
- events bring out a lot of players with literally no clue.

That even though you're playing Reapers, people still try to camp the bottom room in firebase white as if they're fighting Geth...then they panic when the banshees teleport in... :-p

Yup. This.

I find this in silver too for some reason. People get super aggressive at me too if i don't go there, usually ends in them quitting. At least it's a rare occurence.

[iplay222]

People suck, hard.

[zephyrsky]

using the entire map lol

[DESTRAUDO]

I learned very quickly that the builds i did excellently with on silver were way too squishy for gold, and respecced a bunch of builds for 6 in health/shields rather than 2.

I learned that the difference between a wipe on wave 3 of gold and a full extraction that felt easier than silver is a lot more about tactics than any weapon or character class.

I got my first geth (engineer) and quickly learned that a character fully specced up for support can do wonders for team survival.

One thing i would like to know is whether the shield restore function on my turret restores barriers as well as shields. On the chance it did i was lobbing it across the map onto vanguards in the middle of doing their vanguarding, in the hope that it would make them less prone to keeling over and dying, but i don't actually know for sure if it was restoring their barrier or just providing a small distraction for enemies.

[LegionofRannoch]

its nice having a team of three and a random completing gold, full extraction.
really appreciative.

also that firebase goddess/ all asari / gold is a blast! so many biotic explosions!!

[sirjimmus86]

My favourite biotic team

Asari Justicar or Drell Adept (Reave) (Grenades) (Pull)
Human Sentinel/Asari Adept (Warp)
Phoenix Adept or Vanguard (Smash) (Charge)
Drell/Human Vanguard (Charge) (Grandes/Nova)

If the players keep using reave, warp and smash, all 3 powers can both prime and detonate. No need for throw, or pull or stasis.

I played a match on Hydra with my DrellGuard & an AJA & a AA. They would AoE Reave & Warp a bunch enemies, I'd lob a grenade then charge. Explosions everywhere. It was unreal how easy it was.

[GGW KillerTiger]

Things I learned?

When playing with randoms the Banshees all see me as the highest threat so they all teleport strait for me to immediatly sync kill me, but playing with friends that doesn't always happen. So randoms are so bad and I wish more of my friends played this game.

Banshee sync kill being sent to random is total bull crap. When a game fails because a banshee activates sync kill 4 times within a minute constantly.

Also cobra missile glitchers are more common than ever during a weekend event. Why are people so bad they have to cheat?
