100% agree, but only on Host or a really good Off-Host connection, a bit of lag can break the Drell Vanguard style but N7 Slayer is the most effected by lag.


Quite true. I hate playing him off host. Some people like it more though, cause clusters are more stable.

It is literally impossible to outscore a great drellguard on platinum/gold.


Nothing's really impossible. But it might be very hard to outscore him on gold, yeah. On platinum, not even that hard to be honest.

But forgive me if we're talking about reegar, then it doesn't matter.


Noone's mentioning that abomination here! :devil:

nah

you have grenade gear
i have armored compartments. 

gi will win


First, I said it's the most efficient killer. Not the most efficient score****r. And by "killer" I mean "killer with his own means". You wanna score**** and not have fun with the game, do as you please. In another lobby though ;)

Second, if I wanted to score**** too... I'd reach the juicy spawns sooner. I'd nuke the juicy spawns. You'd be left with few things to nuke and I would be left with plenty of grenades. You'd still come second on the scoreboard.

The real question is who would win in a match up between two scrubby players?


Now, that's a tricky question... They would both end up on the floor most of the time. I'll go with the GI though, as I remember far too well how it is to play the Drellguard in a clueless way :whistle:

This calls for a duo challenge me thinks Deerber. We have plenty of worthy PC GI's in our midst.


He, you should know me better :happy: I don't fancy the idea of these "challenges" at all. That's for score****r scrubs ;)

I know, right? My opinion of bsners' playing skills has improved a great deal with this thread!

Play on Condor. VS Geth or Collectors. See how fast you're out of nades.


It ain't that bad if you don't take a heavy as **** weapon like a claymore :whistle:

But yeah, some maps and enemies are going to be better played with a GI. But overall, I feel they're the minority. Play Glacier/Cerberus. Or Goddess/Collectors. Or Jade/Reapers. Good luck finding something to kill if the host's Drellguarding good :happy:

Deerber, you have a +15 % multiplicative bonus when playing Drells - Most of us don't have that.


Haha that would explain why I love them so much, wouldn't it? :wizard:

But the Asari Valkyrie is better, so it's irrelevant.

I'm sure BSN is flattered that your opinion of them as players has gone up, after all we were all torn up about how you thought we were scrubs.

I have no doubt the Drell can take down the GI.

But call me crazy~ but I've seen a dude totally wreck it with a Talon Mercenary "on platnium". Haven't had much time to play with Talon myself but that's the dude I suspect can takedown a GI on most maps due to his ability to regenerate charges if specced.

Alas, I'd need a lot of practice with Talon Merc myself to confirm. Atm, I cant keep this guy alive on Gold w/o a cyclonic. I'd need to spend like 200 waves learning that character

I dunno. I've seen some damn good players use the GI + Javelin combo and things are dead before you get there. Though for the majority of cases I'm inclined to agree that the Drellguard is better.

key word being gold. There are a bunch of kits which can out perform the GI on gold, like the huntress of example. But not on platinum.

Ah yes, DV- the one special tier class pugs never play- and yes this is on spawn-nuking scrub-ville Gold.
Would rather use the DA or MQE, tbh.

nah, not enough firepower against bosses, and thanks for the nades making phantoms standing still for me to snipe. Best would be against reapers tho for drellguard.

Hm, the distinction might need to be made between PC and console scrubbery. I believe us console snipers lag a bit behind PC players. Rather, we lack way behind to be specific

Vanguards are the best Gold class in general

Being able to affect more targets at once is a great advantage for the Drellguard, but this only applies to Gold as Cluster Nades damage isnt powerful enough on Platinum. But on Gold... Yeah sure. I played the Venom Drellguard earlier today and I dominated with it on Hydra/Reapers.

I must try that setup..

i want to like the venom and using it on the Drell seems ideal

Expected some random off topic thread. Deerber, I'm dissapoint. ;)

OT: Yes, a Drellgaurd can just charge + cluster nade spawns for easy killstreaks. He has got some great AOE damage while the GI can only attack 1 enemy at a time (depending on the weapon). And even if the GI uses an AOE weapon, the Drellgaurd has got charge.

Deerber, have you no faith? Anything that ends with a cluster grenade ends well!

Depends on definition of efficient. Can the map sustain grenades or are you tapping into ops packs to feed the rush? Consumable use violates my definition of efficiency as it has a credit loss associated with it. GI gets by with straight-up powers.

It's April 2013, and what your doing is the equivalent of arguing with an empty room. Nearly all the best GI players are gone.

I won't disagree with you outright, but for a similar reason to the above; I've probably played 50 drellguard games for every GI game. Never did like the robot much. (Though I dug the GE for a while.)

The game is balanced around consumable use. Get with the times bro...

With a title like this, I'd have expected 6 or 7 pages by now, just from people looking for controversy. :P

I've been lied to! :lol:

(Well, technically, it's not over yet...)
