Sorry if this is already answered.

Does the shield boost of the volus stack with the stim pack/geth turret/demolisher pylon?

How does shield boosting work? When you put a shield boosting equipment on say, a turian ghost, does the percentage of increase add up from the raw score or does it include the stim pack?

With a destroyer, does a gear or equipment percentage of increase add up from the base or including the shields added with devastator mode?


This does not pertain to the topic, please create a new topic for these questions

Sorry I asked and bumped this question about 5 times in the volus thread and never got an answer. You've been really great about ansering people's questions so I thought I'd ask here. My bad.

I haven't read the whole thread, but in regards to how challenges displays in the lobby, would it be possible to add an option to show the N7/Challenge Rank/Promotions in a horizontal row instead of rotating? It seems even w/o reducing the size it'd fit and would be a lot less confusing/more glanceable.

Just completed the Geth Mastery challenge and as others have said my silver challenges did not all reset. Yes, I know this is a known issue (but I really wanted this banner). For me, here is what reset:

  • Geth Trooper Points 1, 2 and 3 (where 1 and 2 were completed fully).
  • Geth Bomber Points 1, 2 and 3 (where 1 and 2 were completed fully)
Everything else did not reset. In my case the following are still showing as completed after the gold challenge award:
  • Geth Pyro Points 1 and 2.
  • Geth Rocket Trooper Points 1 and 2.
  • Geth Hunter Points 1 and 2.
  • Geth Prime Points 1.
The now new completion progress of this gold challenge correctly shows 0/12 however. I was awarded the gold challenge.

Not sure if this information helps Bioware or not, but, as an engineer, more information is usually better when determing the root cause of an issue.

As of right now, when this particular issue is resolved it is no big deal to me if my Geth Master silver challenges are all reset back to 0 as I now plan on moving on to other enemy factions.



got a similar bug.
I got the 100% archievement on silver of Biotics.
except.. something is wrong.. while I did all of them.. I did NOT DO ALL OF THE PULL ones. (im at around 60% pull points), yet It still says I did the biotic challenge completely.
and still no banner..

how does it work anyway? you have to pass the mastery 3 times? or you have to play on GOLD to get the GOLD type challenge? Im confused as hell honestly..
a proper explanation would be really appreciated

*edit*

WENT TO CHECK my N7 HQ, and I do have the biotic god banner... how does one activate it inside the game?

That is where I did check how I got the biotic challenge completed (even when pull hasnt been completed).
still I repeat, how do you activate the banner? is automatic?
sorry to keep bugging because I'm confused as hell o_O

I just checked my N7 HQ and noticed that under Squad Elite the progress shows 2/8. However, I have completed 3 items, Bronze Extractions, Silver Extractions and Survival Medals.

Just wanted to say that I really love the new challenge system. Like any new software feature flaws, imperfections and bugs are expected on first release. The devs are only human and as such are just as prone to mistakes as everyone else is. In due time many of our issues will be resolved. I have been very impressed with Bioware's ongoing level of support and DLC's (over 90% free mind us all) that has been provided to us. Not many intellectual property owners in this industry do the latter at all.

Off topic: things since Retaliation in matches of any difficulty have gotten harder. At first I did not like it but it made me realize that I was not playing as well as I should have been. So, please, Bioware, do not change a thing. I love playing Gold matches but at the same needing to step down to Silver is actually a good thing as it is making me a much better player.

Overall, I am very happy. And thank you for all the great work and helping me to rediscover why I love multiplayer all over again!

Ok, so I've read through the 7 pages of Dev responses and have not found an answer to this question.

At the very least there have been strong intimations of weekend challenges, additional challenges etc. Would these hypothetical other challenges theoretically count toward completing the Mass Effect challenge? Currently, it requires you to complete every other challenge before unlocking.

I ask because I have no real desire to promote sixty characters, and this would allow me to side step the issue neatly.

Uh, does the new balance change repair the Havok/Ghost issue for Commando Mastery? If yes, is it sufficient to play them for one more wave (though they are already on 200/200) to set 'Times Completed' from 0 to 1?

What the hell is going on? I've just completed the last bar( 15 of 18) necessary to unlock the Reapers trophy; it has showed I've unlocked the banner and completed the challenge for a minute.
Than it changed like if I have to fill all the bars and complete all 18 challenges!

Please some dev help me!

As above with sirdario1986.

Ok, so now that we have to max every category under the Combat/Enemy Mastery Challenges, what is being done to fix people like myself who don't have matching completion targets for the number of filled bars under those challenges?

Is that going to be corrected soon?

Survival Medals is broken.  I posted about that earlier in this thread.

Sorry to harp on this. All the lads at Bioware are doing a fantastic job, and really congratulations and you are all to be commended for your efforts.

Having said that, now that we've got the new challenge system bug fixes, can someone write a script to go over everyone's challenge lists, and fixes the completed totals such that they now match the number of filled bars under each challenge? That seems like all that needs to be done now (oh, and fixing Survival Medals and Arc Grenades, and so on).

Jesus, this is really, really annoying.
And it's for the banner I was waiting the most, unbelievable. 

Hope they fix it soon, not in the next patch.

Bryan, can you guys look into lowering the points needed for husk. They don't spawn often and give too few points. It doesn't make sense they require more points than the other challenges under Reapers.

We are working with the web team on a solution to get people who are in a bad state back to a working one. This includes the 5 masteries and the ghost\\havoc wave completions.

Sorry Bryan, 5 masteries? Aren't all of the masteries possibly bugged?
Oh dear, really unlucky then!

Anyway, thanks for the update, I really appreciate it!

This would be great, especially if we really have to complete all 18 Reapers challanges!:crying:

Just stupid!

No it is only ones that have "tiers" to their completion.

IE ones that have multiple levels but are the same challenge. The only examples are the Promotion one (but since that requires all silver level it isnt an issue). And the one that has the weekend promotions, but that is running in a different way as well.
