Hosting the game can help some. Nothing like playing on a host 8 time zones away and seeing your shot apparently pass right through your target. Thank goodness we had some atlas I could actually hit.

How was javi made to abuse HM? We had javi way be4 we got geth HM,besides giving the wall most high powered rifles with mods can do the same thing with HM


I was under 2 impressions:
1) Jav has some innate AP
2) it is considered a geth weapon

I can shoot through a stupid amount of cover with the Jav. I havent extensively tested with other rifles but I know I can shoot through some absurd areas (thick walls on hydra, the floor of vancouver) with GI+Jav. Its really pretty funny.

With me, miss, though I'm a crap sniper and wouldn't be able to hit a barn door from three yards with that thing.

Ur right etm but with the new mods for sniper rifles most of the higher powered rifles can do that.

Besides as I said we had javi at start of mp we didn't get geth till later on,with that in mind I don't think it was done like that to abuse HM it just happen that at that time javi was the only SR that had the ability to hit targets behind walls that other SRs couldn't

I've used Javelin enough that the firing delay seems nonexistent to me.

I shoot.proxy mine while scoped in and wait for it to hit before shooting, with cloak on big enemies, mooks don't need cloak if you're using phasic rounds.

The Widow could.
Though the Javelin had better penetration.
After Shield Gate went in many however abandoned SRs for shotties, since those were able to defeat shields easily.

With the new Hyper Velocity barrel and phasic ammo mods though, SRs are again pretty much the scary "Big Iron" that they were meant to be.

I might have worded it wrong--Bioware did not specifically make the jav for HM abuse (it was created earlier, youre right) but it does work remarkably well. They go hand in hand for wallhacking,head-bursting, fun.

Did a couple of solos against collectors just to see if I'm still **** with the Javelin.

First game, Javelin. Can't hit a thing.
Second game, BW. First shot, I take out four collector troops.

Yup. I am **** with the Javelin.

Now i can not use the other rifles.....


Getting used to the firing delay made me even better with the other sniper rifles, to be honest. :?

Damn you. I've got a Jav V with no BW whatsoever. I hate RNG.

just play with it for a little while, you will get use to it

and how i play with it:

i have a level 5 javalin that i use on my Geth infiltrator with this spec:

tac cloak 6: 4 - damage, 5 - personally, recharge, but it could go both ways, 6 - damage

proxy mine 0: its a good quick cast ability, but the whole point of the javalin is to not let them get close enough for you to contemplate this move.... if i was to take it, i would reduce my fitness to fit it in, favouring more weapon damage then health

Hunter Mode 6: 4 - currently have accuracy, but thinking of going with recharge...., 5 - Rate of fire, 6: damage.

networked AI 6: full weapon damage, including headshots

fitness 6: full shields, including recharge.

Hope this helps ^_^, message me if you have questions for this build

Start off with bodyshots.
When you can reliably lead your target then start trying to go for headshots.
Personally I still bodyshot most things.

It works best with stagger-classes.

Try it on the female Quarian Infiltrator. Cloak, Sabotage, shoot. Should be easy pickings.

Aim at heads and then pop them.

Seriously though, get used to leading and go for body shots first. It works best on the GI; use Hunter Mode to see targets through walls and kill those, and shoot proximity mines at targets to stagger them. Once you get used to it you can start going for headshots reliably, but don't be afraid to bodyshot in a tight situation.

i personally use it(level V) on my batarian soldier with the hvb and extra ammo mods plus the batarian passives make up for ammo loss. gives it around 20 shots. headshot a brute and youll take off more than half its health, banshees and praetorians take a little more and basics will be one shotted
