A lot of us might have to go way back for this, some may state they were always very good at multiplayer.

I didn't branch out much until I saw Spec7er's Cerberus/Reactor/Gold solo with the Claymore GI. It taught me to look at weapons that others had written off and also to not worry about fitness as much. I started caring less about 200% Cooldown and more about good positioning, offence and survivability.

When I think of the hours spent using Overload headshots on bronze/silver mooks, it makes me wonder if my manifest would be closer to maxed had I branched out earlier.

So did you L2P at a particular moment? Was there a character/weapon/BSNer that was responsible for the change?

Never

I would say coming to BSN after a few weeks of multiplayer was my turning point, learned good builds, learned how important positioning/moving is, learned some cool tricks (nova/reload cancel) and played with other good players.

Another turning point was probably after beating the campaign on insanity with my Novaguard specced for recharge nova instead of half blast. Taught me to always be on the move with CQC kits, and to kill all the things before they get a chance to kill you.

Now I can at least hold my own in plat, I still die a bit more than most BSN'ers do but I've come a long way, IMHO.

Any who says they have l2p is a dirty liar.

Played a Gold pug with a KroSoldier/Crusader on Glacier, and one kid said over the mic "whoever that is with the Crusader is doing WORK!"

I never looked back, but I'll admit that was around 350 hrs, and I still had my growing pains after that in Gold.

I also asked a lot of great players a lot of stupid questions.
I still do, actually.

When I got ninja'd into a gold game instead of a bronze one.

When I got sick of FBWGG and started to learn how to manipulate spawns into dumping stuff behind people, fun times

This too. As many clowns and jokesters as there are on BSN, there are some guys who really know this game inside and out and they've helped me grow as a player tremendously, through their advice and being able to play alongside them and watch how they handle themselves.

I've been the best at this game since I came out of the womb. GOML.

Playing gold more frequently after meeting a good group of people more than a year ago is probably when I became decent at the game.

Closest was probably getting taken into Plat with Merc, Mus7ang, and Das Rouse.

Possibly my first Plat extraction with Disciple, which was a few weeks later.

When I finally moved out of FBWGG and tried "the real thing" :-p

[Pearl (rip bioware)]

When a host ninja switched a lobby to Gold less than three hours after I had moved up to Silver.

Of course, finding BSN and pugging into a few BSNers helped too.

I don't get better all at once, just bit by bit. Why would there be one defining moment?

Well maybe the first time you clutched a wave, or when you used a character you're not as good and still manage to do well?

[bondiboy]

I guess it was when I started soloing Silver fairly regularly using various kits v all enemies during some of the weekend Ops .

[Pint]

The first time I leapt into gold I was thrown into one with a couple guys who knew eachother. I they carried me through a few matches and helped me out a lot. Once I was able to keep up with them and stay alive; I think that was my L2P moment.

[Moby]

Tough to say. Saying up 'til 5AM with Megabreath, DevilGood, Kocka, and several others playing U/U/P constantly certainly helped a bunch.

When GodlessPaladin taught me what right hand advantage was... That was all I needed.

Am I correct in thinking that 'clutched a wave' is finishing the wave after everyone else is dead? I did that for the first time on my n7 destroyer recently.

I've still yet to meet anyone who could yell at pugs the way he did.
