Not really a pug, since it was a friend/pug mix, but still

Tried again to pug some Platinum, landed in a lobby with 4 second delay on everything I did, and I could stand still in two different locations at once.  Starting on Wave 8, I could stand in three different locations at once.  Shield Gate was nonexistent.

 

I think the others were having similar trouble, because the host was an AP Ammo Adas Melee Juggernaut who was top of the scoreboard.  After I texted witty complaints at him the entire game, he left the second it was over.

I was trolling a pink geth infiltrator with a collector sniper with the good ol spaghetti burner (geth trooper with venom, Hazard dagger, against collectors)

It was funny, he then tried to kick me afterwards  . I hope i didn't upset him too much.

I usually run my Huntress with Claymore. Today however, I decided to give her Widow. And my God, does she ever rock hard with it She is not as effective as she is with High Lord, me thinks, but damn, is she ever sexy. Ran no fitness build(CM IV, admittedly), but she rarely died. And we're talking off host.

 

Guess the girl just likes it long, hard and with lot of penetration

 

 

My friends keep trying to tell me that the Talon is good on her, but it's basically just the bastard child of the Claymore, so I can't take it seriously. Personally I use the Hurricane on her, but I am weird.

 

I used to run the CSMG on her, and it was tons of fun, so I can definitely see the Hurricane working well.

However, I wanted to give her a big gun to (ab)use TC's cooldown reset; I put the Crusader on her, and never looked back. Packs a punch, but has more versatility that the Claymore - admittedly, a very very good gun on her. Get to a spawn, put DC on a mook, then gun it down with your warp ammo enhanced Crusader, follow DC until your cooldown is ready, toss warp for an explosion. With power amp IV, DC eats armour alive, so you can even cast it at bosses, then move on to warp-shoot something else. The crusader also means you can work at pretty much any distance, and being able to choose the conditions of engagement is a necessity when you run her with 0 fitness and no cyclonics. With geth scanner on however, I rarely find myself dropping; she has so many options, she can really choose how to approach any situation. If you can stand (or fix) the Crusader's shooting delay, why not give this a try? One of my favourite builds in the game

Huntress doesn't really benefit much Power Amp though, the amount of damage it adds on top of all the damage she's already dealing is very minor. Warp and DC have low base damage, Huntress makes them high-damage powers only because she already has high power damage bonuses, so an additive bonus on top of that really doesn't do much for her.

 

Power Amps are best used on setups that rely heavily on non-combo power damage without having huge innate damage bonuses. That typically includes grenade tossers, goons, flamers etc.

 

Huntress benefits most from adrenaline and cyclonics.

Hmmmm you might be onto something here. I thought she might benefit more, esp when doing hit and run tactics, but you seem to be right in that it wouldn't shave much time (just had a quick look on kalence); guess I hadn't realized power amps applied to base damage, not the TC ehanced version - if I understand correctly. I just slapped it on her because I thought she'd benefit from it; I automatically group kits relying to DoT with grenade tossers and flamers and goons.

 

I will keep putting it on though I like the idea of maximum DC, and she is plenty strong anyway that she doesn't really need a perfect setup to wreck havoc; plus, I generally have more power amps than adrenaline or cyclonic mods laying around.

[LemurFromTheId]

Fun.

 

Some brave soul was soloing Cerberus/White/Gold, I dropped in at the end of Wave 1 with my Senturian and - uncharacteristically - decided to stay; we ended up duoing the whole game. He was playing Talon Merc but was clearly quite unexperienced: he used his trip mines as trip mines, was only moderately effective at killing stuff and went down quite often, but he also persevered like a champ. Overall it ended up being easier game than most full PUG games, I only needed one medigel (because I'm stupid) and two Ops Packs (managed to spoon a Phantom without catching anything, yay!) and the time was pretty good at 23:26.

[Saikyo_McRyu]

Uh, well I had an interesting pug of coughBRONZEcough (hey, I'm unskilled, had no money and no medigel and needed to extract), with some aggressive pugs on Reactor Hazard. I used the Demogrill, camped on the ledge overlooking the reactor and spammed grenades/dropped Cannibals with the Argus (which I think is quite good with Stability V installed). The other pugs weren't that skilled but good enough to blow through the rippaz quickly. Until wave 11, when the Vanguard (surprise!!) immediately got hisself synched by a Banshee - there goes that full extraction! Amazingly, none of the pugs camped the LZ. In fact, none of them ever made it there. At :30 I headed over, dropped the pylon, and extracted. All I saw of the other pugs were blue pluses across the map.

That was followed by a fun Hydra/Geth/Silver with highly skilled pugs. Geth Hunter cheese gets shut down quickly with Arc Grenade spam.

And so, at long last, I bought my celebratory Jumbo Equipment Pack which I didn't look at but is probably all Expolosive Ammo and Drill Rounds 1.

Having enjoyed some fun Silver PUGs with my HAdept, I gave her the Hurricane and Acolyte and searched for a Gold game.  Dropped into a GIP on wave 3, Dagger Hazard/Cerberus, alongside a very competent Saber Juggernaut and Harrier TGI, and a slightly-green-but-not-bad HEng.  The Jugg and TGI carried it, I contributed with Acolyting of Phantoms and biosplosions .  Didn't manage fifty kills, which is my personal benchmark for a decent contribution to a Gold match, but it was a pretty good game, all things considered.

 

On returning to the lobby, I saw that the host (the Jugg) had preset the map and faction.  He must enjoy being pewpewed at by Phantoms that he can't see.

[DonMarfil]

No, TSol, we wouldn't have made the medal with me playing Juggie for sure.

I tend to run my Huntress with power amps aswell. I´m always low on Drenmods and use my cyclonics mostly on any geth.

I did give her the wraith though, but I think I will give the crusader a try.

[Salarian Master Race]

Now I want to go full Power Damage on my Cryo Ammo SE and see just how rapey Incinerate can be to Armor

 

Depending on how much I'm willing to trade for it, it looks like I can get between 1000 to 1300 more damage (plus DoT) against chilled Armor PER CAST... But Shields, Shock Decoy, Headshot Damage, Lancer AR, and AoE Evo on Incinerate is a lot to trade for it

It's very quick, but at 0:06 you can see the Abom gets Thrown directly at us

Tsol is pretty fun.

A GT host with bad internet on jade/Collector/gold with 2 gearless pugs 

one was a GE with the adas,The other a destroyer with a revenant,Those damn pugs were doing nothing but dying.

They expected me to carry them. But i hid the pizza on the far end of the map on 15 seconds and left the game

Not wasting my cyclonics for two leeches

[Obsidian Gryphon]

Greenies with bare bones in a gold match. "nuff said.

Reactor Hazard/Derperus/Plat

 

oops, I´m so not sorry

 

Fully intenionally unintenionally fried 3 pugs in the reactor . But Karma was a [FEMALEDAWG] today, I didn´t make extraction, doh!

 

Dagger/Geth/Plat

Ermahgerd. You gotta luv pugs missiling a single banshee. It´s not like we needed that missie on w10 targets, while I was surrounded by like 7 enemies or so!

[7twozero]

Whenever I get the no sound bug I always have to quit and restart to get sound back, don't know if that info helps.

[Obsidian Gryphon]

Bored - with a Cerberus gold match.

 

The others were good but the host spam grenades from the word start so I was strolling while mobs went flying left and right. I wouldn't have minded so much if he spam them in the late rounds when phantoms, etc come in fast. But in the early rounds?? I had nothing to do so I left. 

[SassaMFG]

I was on TV!!!

Coward

 

Dropped into a Hydra/Reapers/Silver GIP in wave 1, to find someone playing demolady and using the map glitch to camp at the top of the map, safely out of reach of the nasty things, sniping them with a Black Widow.  They were also packing a Harrier.  They spent about half the game camping up there, though to be fair did come down to do objectives.

 

They went back to their safe spot during wave 11 but came down when I went over and started shooting at them.

 

One would expect a Demolisher with Gold-level guns to utterly trivialize Silver, and yet my Avenger Quarksman ended up only a handful of points shy of their score...

[Saikyo_McRyu]

Okay?

-Rio/bugs/gold with Kroldier and TEH REVVAY, full extraction. Normally I hate Rio but two of the pugs were extremely high level and very skilled (don't think they were BSNers, tho)
-W/G/G with same setup. Different pugs. I ran out of medigel on 11 in a Pyro BBQ circle ™ and got stomped by one of them. Rest of team extracted. Failure to follow simple instruction in the FAQ on missile usage - it's better to run out of missiles than medigel. One positive was pouring inced grenades onto a bunch of Hunters and Pyros from the ledge, interspersed with inced ammo and Carnahhhge. I think I got three Hunters and two pyros in a few seconds. This was, of course, before they got me.

The Arsenal pack I bought got me the Arc Pistol IV and Raider III, so I suppose it was a successful day.

The one guy was cool. But the adas guy totally deserved it.

Edit for clarification. I was not involved. I'm the *other* pug who uses the revvay.
