We don't need pyramids to get to 50 since there is so much that hasn't been discussed.

I know OP used the Argus on a Destroyer, but what if you are new and only have the Human Soldier? Can you use the Argus on that character? Is such a thing even possible?

Yes it is.

If my personal opinion was getting in the way of logic then I would've stopped posting long ago. I'm a simple person with simple desires, namely getting Air Quotes and now you to back up your claims with logic and evidence.

Once again I have to remind you guys because you're completely ignoring the fact that this is about the Argus itself, the spawns and enemy damage values are completely irrelevant. The sub 18 thing does not matter one bit. I have yet to see one piece of evidence or argument that discounts Anno's assertion that the Argus is good when properly modified. This has yet to be disproven and now you are falling into Air Quote's trap of arguing points that don't matter one bit to the point of the thread. If Atlas's TTKs mattered to him on the Argus he wouldn't have brought the Piranha at all.


What claims have I made other than you can't 2 clip an Atlas with that setup.

This thread is about soloing Gold with the Argus - that's the title.  And, yes those value's you mention are irrelavent to the performance of the Argus.  I agree.  But they are relevant to soloing Gold this being the second fastest Destroyer Gold solo according to Hendrix137's list.  I like Annomander's thinking and effort to show how well the gun can perform.  I'm not arguing the Argus is bad - Annomander's setup (Astartes Marine' setup) is excellent.  The gameplay is excellent.  The other noise is why this thread is approaching 20 pages - it's controversional and I feel a bad decision to incorporate it.

Maybe if one of the console players are up for making a video, I am sure Invaderjuan is working on it


I did actually give an accounting of my experience with it.

I performed considerably better than I normally would in a Gold PuG, and not in ideal circumstances, just by stacking stabilization on the Argus.

Using a melee-spec'd character, on console, with auto-aim, and a fairly weak manifest, I actually did quite well with it. I didn't record it because I can't maintain connection to the servers on XBL, and it's a huge pain in the butt to record from PS3.

I gotta tip my hat to a man who owns up the way Annomander just did. We all make mistakes, but not all of us are ready to admit them. You have my respect!

And it was a pretty amazing solo, I loved the way you handled the phantoms with effortless routine. Who cares whether the game is modded or not, that's not the point.

I'd love to play with you some time, although I'm nowhere near as good as you.

Trick question.  Since you are new you don't have the Argus - only the Avenger.  That's life. :wizard:

As much as I disagree with his use of third party software, I can't fault him for being an ok guy... and after everything, guess who's the bigger d*ckhead? Yeah, me. Not the cheater. Me. I acted wrongly in regards to this, I handled it poorly, I acted wrongly in regards to other people like Feneckus and Deerber who I once called friends: who I'd like to call friends again, only I probably don't deserve them after the things I've said.

You are getting soft Anno. The biggest d*ckheads here are his friends, willing to **** over other people while backing up a liar. Personally I would never tolerate such behavior, unless they really thought that he wasn't lying but then an apology would be in place and I don't think it ever came to that.

The error Annomander made was using the old Glacier map, weaker
Atlases and very fortunate spawns.  The message he was trying to convey
is getting lost in the noise because of those poor decisions.

Can't do anything with the damage, as it was balance changed, and all stats for guns / powers still get overwritten by the server side download if bioware balance changed them at any point.

Cyonan is your man if you want guns that have been buffed in interesting ways; he actually tries to "balance" his weapon buffs.

I buffed the typhoon back to its pre-nerf status, gave the spitfire a RoF of 1000 rpm and changed the assault rifle HVB so it granted +25% damage + piercing + penetration.

Are they balanced? Hell no, they're OP as all f*ck, but then again so my scions.

EDIT: invisible escort drone? You can't explain that!

I was kidding of course.  Although I did playthrough my ME3 Insanity single player campaign with the Vindicator and Scimitar on my Vanguard - because they worked so well in ME2.  Oh well, we all make mistakes and learn from them.

I did see your post a couple weeks ago about the Typhoon and tried it - it's pretty mental, I like it.

At any rate - quality shooting with the Argus.

I thought it looked ridiculous when part of that group made annonmander out to be the villain for telling the truth.  Such a shame that these are the types of people running governments and writing history books.  No concept of honor or integrity.  Cover it up, obscure the facts, throw dirt on the accuser.  It was like watching a hardboiled detective take down a mafia don.  One of the more entertaining bsn dramas.
