Decided to jump back to soloing gold since its been forever (been sticking to bronze training up friends) and it went okayish for a while until wave 9. Suddenly everything went wrong. I got stuck in EVERYTHING, Geth bombers where everywhere and my Carnage and Pirahea did zero damage to them (melee worked however) and just to make everything else worse, biotic charge was only working half the time. It was to the point where I was smashing the Y button and pleading with the game to pretty pretty please charge! CHARGE ! CHARGE ! CHAAARGEE DAAANGIIITT! CHAAAARGEE!!! Followed by slight unmanly sobbing and the girlfriends worried look (either sympathy for my frustration or worry over my mental health).

Suddenly I went from using 0 med packs to using 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and thats when I was pretty much shouting obsceneties at the screen and telling it firmly how I was just going to run away from everything and just ignore my enemies. So I was doing that for a bit, calming down, refocusing, getting a few primes and such, still having buggy biotic charge and indestructable geth bombers when I suddenly manage to charge (and of course I charged the wrong enemy) landing in a field of geth grenades, pretty much getting one shot. Med pack 6 gone. I get up only to run into pyros, taking most of my barrier down while I keep smashing the Y button in hopes to charge the pyros to recharge my barrier, only having it not trigger until I was down to 1 health bar and FINALLY charging the pyros who where apparently standing in a Geth Bomber geth grenade field. One shot. No more med packs. Why Geth bomber? Why?

In short, I lost not only the game, but my pride, dignity and possibly some manhood in the eyes of my girlfriend, but she's taken most of that already anyway so I'm not to concerned about it. Anyone else hating Geth Bombers? =p Hugs?

Because Geth Bombers are meant to be frustrating and keep You on the move.
Also, they're so bugged, even insta hit powers can be frustrating to use. As for Charge, I'd blame the Vanguard though.

Actually, I wasn't camping. I was running around giant with my Krogan Battlemaster like a half wit =D

Not sure who or what to blame for what really, wave 9 was so messed up. I was moving plenty, just getting slightly irked when nothing would damage the small buggers and there where like 3-4 of them on my tail at all times. I'm Krogan, I'm not suppose to run from things, I'm suppose to charge it!

Honestly though, I get that they need to make it a challenge, and I do enjoy challenges (I love Collectors). However this wasn't challenging it t was just frustrating. It even gave me a soar throat too somehow =D

Its easier to assume the worst outcome when ever you are either throwing a power at a bomber, or mashing the charge btoon. Just keep the trigger pressed on your weapon.

Yeah, I feel You on this, I play a KroSentinel myself quite often. It's not Your fault if they're bugged, I understand Your frustration. I also just hate the pesky bastards.

The sore throat must be from all the cussing.

Today I found out that Bombers can stunlock through walls. What kind of BS is that?

I also decided to finish up Solo Mastery again and rolled a Silver Geth game. On Wave 10 the combination of Combat Drones, missile glitching rocket troopers, and those g******n bombers made me waste 5 medigels. I seriously could not get up. Eventually I rage missiled them and completed the objective... Only to get disconnected.

[Daxamite]

i think giving the bombers a stunlock was completely unnecessary

[Robbiesan]

Had that happen recently too... *hitting, no-mashing- Y* no charge... oh look, it finally worked...wrong guy...dead

[TODD 5184]

They should give Geth Prime sentry turrets a form of stunlock, and Geth will be the only faction where every single enemy can stun you.

Damn, that really sucks. I hate their accursed tazers. Especially since they start tazing you when you get up from a gel or a revive and you can't move.

[Scam_poo]

You mean you had Carnage on the Krogan Vanguard? Interesting...

Btw, try it again with the Reegar and Incendiary ammo. Works wonders.

[wirelesstkd]

I don't understand why charge is so unusable against the bombers. Sometimes it triggers, sometimes not. It's always a surprise.

And it's an op'd amount of damage you get from that shock too.

[Tatsumaki]

Why choose Geth when you fully know that their main modus operandi is not firepower but stuns and staggers?
You would have a better time against Reapers, maybe even Cerberus

It's a trade off between staggering and sync kills. With the Geth, there is no way you'll end up getting sync killed 15 seconds before extraction. You can get dropped, but there's always medi-gel.

At this point I'm honestly expecting the next patch to make Geth Troopers and Prime Turrets cause stun. They seem to be incapable of thinking of a way to balance the Geth other than adding more stunlock to them.

[Chaoswind]

December 4 balance changes:

Prime sentry turrets have an area shock similar to the one used by decoy and drones.

Pyros now have grenades.

Carnage is fairly useful if you just toss 3 in there for a quick fire explosion.

Because Bioware seems to think that making the game as annoying and frustrating as possible is the key to multiplayer success.

[meteng]

Acolyte + flamer sorts them out.

[Grumpy Old Wizard]

Because Bioware evidently hates for people to play defensively. Every class, no matter how squishy, is supposed to gun and gun evidently.  Enemies were introduced that are designed to flush you out of cover so the other enemies can blow your head off while you are running.

If I had to fight 3 Praetorians alone or 7 geth bombers, I'd choose the Praetorians
