Very nicely done, Achire.

[heybigmoney]

So you still take power synergy even after the buffs to area charge? Great run btw.

[Barronator]

Not sure why you would want to do this but congratz anyway!

[jakenou]

You must have bionic hands. Cheers!

[Sihmm]

Congratulations Achire, knew you could do it - very well done! Looking forward to picking up some tips from it...

I would suggest muting it and playing some music, because otherwise you will get very annoyed at the constant yelling.

haha its pretty funny listening to the constant nova yell cancelling 

You had it easy with those pizza deliveries being so close to the LZ 

Heheh just kidding. Awesome work dude, and nice soundtrack. I have also now learnt how to nova cancel.

GEMA, got to love Germany...

I'm really sorry about that. Initially it seemed like it would actually play in Germany for once. I have uploaded a version with just the game sounds. It should finish processing soon. I would suggest muting it and playing some music, because otherwise you will get very annoyed at the constant yelling.

Thanks for the positive feedback everyone.

I didn't dare to ask ... but you did it anyway!

Thank you

Purple Haze!!!!!! Congrats bro.

Do it with a level 1 Drell adept Predator pistol no mods, and no gear or equipment. Then ill be impressed.

It depends on a lot of variables such as weapon, damage rotation, number of enemies nearby, headshots and whether you're hitting health/armor/shields/barrier. I like power synergy since it's AOE damage. Here's an example calculation for a charge (shoot) nova (shoot) nova (shoot) cycle with a Talon X.

Weapon synergy added damage (single target):
117.1 * 6 * 0.25 * 3 = 526.95

Power synergy added damage (up to 3 targets):
400*0.4 + 350 * 2 * 0.4 + 350 * 0.5 * 2 * 0.4 = 580

The Disruptor ammo buff and the Talon shield/barrier damage bonus makes weapon synergy much better on shields and barrier, though.

Edit:
There have also been some rumors of a Human Vanguard buff. That would almost certainly be a buff to the base damage of Nova, which would make Power Synergy even better.

Now, if that wasn't impressive! Congratulations, great play.

It's always awesome to see someone soloing platinum playing the class the way it's meant to. And not just firing super-weapons.

Also yeah, your fingers must have been exposed to Eezo to be able to last 50 mins!

[Learn To Love Yourself]

Impressive! Very nice...

[stysiaq]

I'm glad you used Jimmy Hendrix, I love his music. I may actually watch the video, even if I'm not fond of Novaguard in particular.

[Uh Cold]

Very well done.

[koschwarz74]

Now THIS job is impressive indeed!
and your taste of music is fine too

[HolgoR]

First: Thanks for the german version of the video.

Second: CONGRATULATIONS!
Since i saw your gold solos i knew you could also handle platinum. And now you finally did it!
I've only started playing Novaguard because of your videos. I've never played with a competent Novaguard before and thought their job was to charge a group of enemies and die immediately.
So thanks for the inspiration and good luck for your PHD program.

Wouldn't Incendiary ammo be a better choice as Novaguards are generally lacking in DPS?

Whose da man.... you da man!

My main reason for not using incendiary is that the chance to trigger FEs seems significantly lower than the chance to trigger TBs. I have a theory that this is due to the FE effect chance from incendiary not scaling up with ammo power level like disruptor ammo's TB effect. Also the radius for TB is larger than FE, whereas the damage is now identical. Additionally I am not using an Acolyte, so the extra 4x damage on shields and barrier is quite helpful. Also most enemies on Cerberus/Platinum have shields.

Cheers all. I appreciate the support.

[HemanSoldat]

Very impressive, good job.

[CYB3RFR34K]

AMAZING!

[najzere]

Anyone else watch it like the Manguard had his iPod on and was just rocking out while he went to town on Cerberus? Great run, that was a pleasure to watch.

Wait aren't fire explosions a lot more damaging than tech bursts?
