This may be old news to some Bsn'ers but it is still a lot of fun.

This was a test run beings none of us have attempted this post sabotage nerf.
The goal was to score the least amount of points possible in one match with everyone participating in objectives equally.

11 waves completed
Refused to extract Captian Kirrahe style
3 waves survived
25 min match
Less than 20,000 points scored collectively
Not a single round fired at a target
Enjoy.




Our next goal is to score 0 points total in a complete gold match. It boils down to objectives, revives, and refusing to extract. In theory it is possible. The only way this would be possible is if all three objective waves are target eliminations without anyone receiving a revive medal.

I've been wanting to try a sabotage-only match, but really it seems that it would be QUITE boring...

We found it oddly amusing. Enemies die very quickly.

I think we could've done Gold but when I suggested it there was an uncomfortable silence on the mics. Me and Skelly won though. Object was to be the lowest score.

No Saboteur and no Marksman? Mix it up a little, you nerds!

[Excella Gionne]

Wow, you have a lot of Challenge Points.

You could throw in some male Quarian bum bum for the ladies.

This was an experiment, a control group type match. I haven't tried anything of this sort since the nerf on sabotage. I do have to say that it still works surprisingly well. I was reluctant at first, but Nuke assured us all that it would work well.  I imagine the tac-cloak bonus was what we were after, hence the lack diversity and the over-kill on power amps. Enemies die almost as fast as they do using weapons. We are discussing a gold run in which there may be some other characters used.

I ran some builds through Kalence and the Marksman can actually get a higher damage backfire using Tac-Scan than the QFI with cloak, with nearly the same cooldown. And Tac-Scan benefits the entire team, including your other QFI.

The only thing i'm unsure of is if Tac-Scan will register as an attack.

It does, unfortunately. That crossed my mind also. It does around 40-50 damage each time it a target is highlighted.  Good idea though!

Waves survived. You'd need to have someone die every two waves and trade off on who revives them.

[NuclearTech76]

Just did a little soloing with it. Problem is when Banshees come up as targets will there be enough time to kill them without weapons fire?

[NuclearTech76]

I'll check the MM and see if Tac Scan gets a kill if it is used?

Agh. I forgot about that. We were kind of surprised we even managed three waves survived on the first attempt. On gold, that probably wont happen. 

[NuclearTech76]

Yeah Tactical Scan takes credit for sabotage kills.

[NuclearTech76]

Sabotage apparently is the holy grail for people wanting challenges points for crappy powers and weapons.

If Backfire doesn't get bonus damage against barriers, it should take about 18 seconds of sustained "fire" from all teammates to kill a banshee on gold. I'm sure most of the time they will go 20 seconds with recharging their barriers.

[NuclearTech76]

Chances of three target objectives are slim as me getting WTF I want from the RNG store.

I did a bit of research on minimum score back when I was doing the Dance of the Shadowman challenge.

 Am sad I missed these shenanigans.
