I feel like increasing the cooldown time on this ability would get people like this to play more thoughtfully. That is my opinion. If you do not agree, I understand and respect your opinion. Have fun replacing your RB button on your xbox controller :)

Watched the video. Doesn't look particularly fun for them, but... so?

They realy should at least give it a more engthy cast delay, had a game where a Shadow did nothing but spammed ES all game and had first place by a good 20k. While the score doesn't really bother me its the simple fact how easy it was for this guy to dominate by just standing behindd a wall al game and pressing one button

So... why are these guys playing Gold? I mean, they don't really need the credits, because they aren't going to get use any weapons that they might get lol. This match lasted 30 minutes, and that guy shot his gun maybe 3 times totally. Never saw him use charge or phase, or melee, or anything haha. I feel like if you can play Mass Effect with one hand and no skill, something has gone wrong

Sounds like he's upset because the guy scored higher than him in his farming game. Pretty good guess seeing as "noob" is plastered all over that video.

If you're not camping they leave you out in the open for way too long so you have to use its wall penetration, take that away and you have a terrible ability.

What about Shockwave? Smash? Annhilation field? Snap Freeze?

All wall ignoring abilities are cheese. Shockwave is bugged on PC and doesn't work reliably at all, so at least I don't see that, but I think these "through the wall" abilities and classes designed around using them need serious help.

I don't think any of them are really that cool or interesting and you almost always get stuck with those who spam it from behind a wall, but with how powerful all of them are, can you really blame them?

There's not really much you can do without using what are arguably your most powerful abilities. It's like an AA not using Stasis.

What are you going to do?

Petition for these abilities to be nerfed when the fault really lies with the design and accessibility of said classes with said abilities?

Something definitely needs to be done when people go around playing the game they purchased however they feel like. If they're not going to stop themselves from having fun, I think it's BioWare's duty to do it for them.

Wow, people cry here a lot. Who cares, let them have their fun and you have yours. Score means nothing, you all get the same credits and experience.

I'd rather have a spammer who do damage, than carrying people who never use rockets or medigels.

Longer cool-down, and no wall penetration would completely fix the massive amount of abuse this has been getting. The other two powers for Shadow and Slayer even out well. They are both really fun classes to play without even having the Slash. I use the slash only for crowd control if I'm in a fix. I would much rather cut somebody head off with a flaming sword or pop some heads, but thats just me, and Im sure my opinion doesnt count haha

Because they can? Because they like the challenge of Gold? Because those classes work for them?

Because you're a judgmental ass who wants to force people to only play the way he wants them to play?

I wish they'd just make sure the Slash powers don't go through walls. That way they have to get out into the open - And since the powers doesn't allow them to activate it while in cover.. Well.. You do the math on that one.

I bet it would be funny, too.

You're camping on FBW/Geth.

If you aren't doing a camping setup, you can't do that quite as effectively.

It's by far the most annoying power in the game at this point. BioWare should provide an option for muting the Slash powers only.

It's made even worse by the fact that Slayers often glitch out the match.  I don't like kicking based on class, but with Slayer it's pretty much necessary.

The best part is he's in a farming game on FBW. Slayer has two other abilities, distruptor which drains shields and biotic charge. I mean what do you honestly expect the player to do? I mean it's safe to assume the OP has never played a biotic class. The majority of Biotic classes could be played with no weapon if the game even let you do that.

Yes, because they're the only ones who hide behind a desk and mash buttons on White.

Just play against reapers they can kill campers/spammers very quickly and your problem is solved. No need to 'rework' or 'rebalance' abilities and ruin them for the mentally sane player

This wasn't a farming game for me. I did a Gold/Random/Random Quick Match and ended up in that lobby. I used an N7 Paladin with N7 Hurricane IV and Acolyte X. I just quit and started recording the match because it was hilarious/annoying. But I just can't take a match seriously anymore when these types of guys play, and spam that all over the place. Knocks any enemies out of the way before I can get close enough to use snap freeze or OmniShield, knocks them out of the way of my line of fire. shakes my screen, etc..  Just ANNOYING.

Wait, you're complaining about button-mashing. . . while farming FBW. . . in the bottom room. . . which is the most boring way of playing the game ever.

Oh wait, I forgot about cramming into the little box on Glacier. . . so second most boring way to play the game.

You're right, this game is a grind on gold and up.  Hardly see this in silver.  I do like playing my biotics and I hardly use my weapons.  They have already it hard to even pop your head out on gold and plat.  Gods forbid you play a geth in hunter mode....

then it would just be a useless power if it coldn't go through walls
