at level I and II.

I mean, seriously, my Jav has been sitting at X for a while, so I took my SI, strapped Phasic lvl II as well as SR amp gear and SR rail amp lvl III, and surprise, I couldn't ohk marauders with bodyshots no mo.

Or was I just drunk? I don't think so, cuz I don't drink.

Point being, phasic are only good on one shot weapons, i.e. SRs or shotties, but shotties already make a joke of shield gate, so phasic lvl I and II have no use if they can't help me take out a shielded mook with a Javelin X.

Headshot defeats the purpose of phasic rounds.

Exactly. What's the point in using phasic if I need to headshot anyways?

If you're not aiming for the head don't bother, won't be 1/2 as satisfying.

I use Lv1 & Lv2 or Gold, it works fine. Just shoot the head.

You know it shouldn't be the case. Any other type of ammo power at any level is usable even on platinum, but phasic I n' II lose all and any purpose if you're going gold+.

I'm a headshot lover, but the Jav and its shot delay make it more difficult to always line up one. I ain't no pc hacker.

It doesn't work at all. Javelin headshot OSK every humanoid enemy on plat without equipments on Plat ( bar a few, like Pyros). Headshot kills does not benefit from aphasic I/ii/viii so you might as well use something else.

I once went into a plat game with nothing but Vulnerablity VI and still was able to one shot kill Hunters, Marauders, iirc.

If you're using phasics II on an infiltrator with a Javelin X you can OHK shielded mooks like centurions, marauders and the like. But damage in this game is inconsistent, especially with a javelin. It can definitely happen that you don't kill a marauder with a bodyshot, but most of times he will die as he should.

Yeah I was jerking your chain, are you using a GI? He should be able to bodyshot stuff with low level phasics out of cloak.

Or put the Javelin on its intended kit, the GI

I can't quite remember, but I'm pretty sure the bodyshot left many marauders alive that game.

How about no?

The main reason I don't Jav with the GI is the lack of a stunning power (read ED) as my aim is not that good, wngmv will confirm that.

Besides, nothing compares to the Piranha on the GI.

So:

That brings up my question again, what's the use of phasic rounds level I n' II? I'd rather take explosive.

LMAO why are you body-shotting the Marauder with the SI.

You are SI, ffs. You get headshots FOR FREE.

Also, don't listen to them. SI > GI with the Javelin. SI needs the same number of shots (and hence kill just as fast) for the vast majority of enemies (think: which enemies need more than 8 Javelin shots to defeat?) while being far more versatile.

SI is the ultimate aimbot. Most underrated Infiltrator by far.

ED + Prox Mine + Cloak = GG.

The multiplicative Geth weapon bonus and the Hunter Mode damage bonus are why the GI is superior with the Javelin. Granted... this doesn't matter vs mooks, but it sure shows up against bosses.

So what I've got from OPs post is that, because s/he can't aim with the Javelin it is Phasic Rounds' fult for being a bad ammo power..

SMH. Do we even play the same game? That's flat out untrue.
