... Why isn't this operations name.
Operation: Headbutt?
Seriously. Bloodlust is so out of place here.

Well, looks like I'll miss this Operation. I don't solo, and I don't have any other Bronze friends to play with. Ah, well.

Ok, I have two points here.

1. I've called people out in the past for having mangled and complained about some fairly plain and well described operation details in the past. This one isn't just vague, it's completely misleading when you say everyone in the squad gets a commendation pack. That is simply not the case apparently.

2. Bioware has developed a wonderful CO-OP mp. Now, this challenge pretty much forces you to either solo the match or be the jerk that pisses everyone else off. The only other option (which I'll probably be using) is to team up with a buddy and take turns. The first match I'll help strip shields away and weaken enemies so he can melee them, and the next match he'll do the same for me. Either way, forget about PUGs or anything resembling a full squad.


1. Never thought about it. I always just assume that I have to do whatever it says to do. Worked so far.

2. No. This is false. Incredibly false. It is very easy to get the melee medals in a public game. Team usually isn't in the way when your going to go smash some mooks around. Krogan sentinel used to be the best for this kind of thing, but now with the Kroguard's Rage working correctly and his ability to instantly restore shields, he's arguably the best for it. Either Krogan, you only need to get one heavy melee kill to be able to kill all Cerberus/Geth mooks in one "MMMMRAAAAAAWWWWW!" Bring along something to stun and damage Phantoms (Acolyte is awesome for this now) if your going up against Cerberus and your good to go.

3. Only way I can see not getting this is if there are more than two Krogan in the match. Other than that, should be smooth sailing.

How many enemies spawn on bronze?  Silver may be the safer way to go incase we accidentally kill some enemies with charge.  BC kill doesn't count as melee does it?

Soloing bronze or silver with either Krogan Sentinel or Kroguard is probably the easiest way to get this.

Since when was 50 melee kills difficult to get when you're not solo'ing?

Come on ladies, I play krogan all the time and regularly get my 50 melee kills medal.

Sounds like you all need to grow a quad!


Maybe, but how often do you see a squad of four Krogans all getting 50 melee kills in the same match? That's the co-op breaking element to the challenge. If everyone plays as a Krogan and runs around trying to steal everyone else's kills, it makes it a bit more difficult for anyone to get 50 melee kills.


Totally agree.  I cant see a everyone reaching the goal with a 4 Krogan squad.  Maybe 2

So, what does this mean for allied challenges next to squad ones? Will we still have allied and squad every 2 weeks and every other weekend inbetween solo challenges or how is this working?

I wonder...If you DO have an actual squad...and one person gets the 50 Melee kills, does EVERYONE in the match get the comm pack?

I'll join, if I understand the wording correctly, only one of us needs the Gold Medal...


Nevermind, read back into the thread, still. Add me, I'll lay back and cover you while you get your melee kills, then I'll let loose and get my own. :lol:

If you do bronze it won't be hard. Try to charge in to shielded opponents like Centurians or Nemisi, as your charge will only stagger them leaving them ready for your melee. Even if you're specced for area charge, you'll only stagger the unshielded guys around them if your original target was the shielded one.

But there are way over 50 enemies for you to melee to death, even if you end up killing a bunch with charge.

So to clarify, we basically just need to get 50 melee kills in the same match using any krogan on any difficulty, map and enemy?


That's correct.  


Thanks, just wanted to make sure I was right.

I have a ton of homework to prepare for midterms this weekend and only have time for one match- so I need to make it count.

Actually, your point 3 is what I was talking about. Multiple players playing melee happy Krogans will most likely mean failure for everyone. That, and I've made a point of stealing kills from melee happy Krgoans in the past when I saw them repeatedly come up and melee enemies I've taken down to a bar or two of health. I don't typically have a problem with "kill stealing" as long as the enemy ends up dead, but when taken to extremes it just gets to be annoying.

Normally I'm the first one to go "c'mon people, reading comprehension isn't this hard", but I'm also pretty confused as to whether

a) 1 Krogan on a squad of 4 can get the pack for all 4 players, and
B) if there are extraction requirements


Challenges are individual.  Your medal, your accomplishment.

Thanks for the clarification. :happy:

(now crossing fingers that I finally unlock a Kroguard by this weekend)

You don't need it, especially if you're doing Bronze.  Use a Krogan Sentinel, and max out Tech Armor for Damage Reduction and Melee bonus.  I usually spec Rage for a mix of Health and Melee bonuses.  Equip whatever weapons you want (as long as they have melee mods), because weight doesn't mean anything.  Once you're in Rage, you can literally one-hit just about anything other than a Prime/Banshee/Brute/Atlas with your heavy melee.

Still too vague and pretty much is in direct opposition to the goals posted in the OP.

The OP states that one krogan gets the gold and all squad members get the pack.

Your post seems to say that only the krogan that gets the melee medal gets the pack.

There hasn't been a more confusing goal explanation in quite a while.

BE SPECIFIC. Is it really that hard?

Yes you do. We can duo the crap outta this Op.


Hi there. I'm on XBox and I play any difficulty. Usually Gold or Silver, but not exclusively.
(I promote the crap out of every class so what I can use on Gold and Plat varies regularly.)

I´m sorry, but this isn´t really fair.. I don´t have a Krogan, none of them, so basically i´m screwed?!! And you can´t say it´s my fault for not having them, cause the Store is (pretty) random. For example, i have all the N7 (Shadow, Fury, etc..), but still no Krogan......


I don't understand why there is no Silver Card Krogan. The two original Krogan were both Gold Cards. Makes sense. :huh:

Exactly. With so many new Kits, the original ones should receive a "downgrade" to silver, to make it easier to get.
It´s ridiculous to have almost all of the recent ones, but no Krogan!


I agree with that, too, but that's a whole other issue, lol. I actually think all the originals, plus a few of the DLC character should go to Silver. I have a friend that just got the game last month and he will NEVER catch up :blush:

I honestly don´t understand why they (BW) don´t do it. We have some uncommon, some common, and then a bazillion Rare characters! So unbalanced and unfair.....
