Two more upgrades and I'll have it! :wizard:

And not be able to rock it like Leland. Damn that's impressive, 5 waves survived and wave 10 hack and still you come out on top! 
Hooray for Leland


Now I am sadder.... Though I did just unlock the spitfire yesterday....


Haha, I got that a few weeks back and have yet to fiddle with it. Got my Harrier the other day! 
Special thanks to Mofugger and Kocka for carrying my tushie to that plat victory!

Kook, if you do not do anything besides pug platinum with a Harrier/Lancer TGI and kookpartments, then I don't know how you can have fun. Leland did this for fun because I suggested it.

Here's the parameters:


Play a Drell Vanguard - Gold Solo, Pullguard.

-You cannot spec into Cluster Grenades or Biotic Charge.
-You are only allowed to spec into Pull. 
-You can use any weapons and any equipment. 
-You can fight any enemy on any map or you can set u/u/g. 
-You cannot cheese any hacks. 
-You must get at least 3 waves survived.

Bonus challenge: 10 waves survived 

I expect pictures.


This is the easiest challenge I have seen, you really need to place some restrictions on the weapons allowed. All you need to solo gold is an incendiary reegar, you don't need any powers. This character has great movement speed and excellent weapons damage. Lol, I can set it to something like White/Geth/Reegar for some ultra easy mode, all I need is a geth scanner and I can see all the enemies coming and melt them all in a fraction of a second, I'm done in 30 minutes or less. If the 10 waves survived was mandatory, then that would be a differnt story. But it's not. Easy solo.


Then do it, take pictures, and post them.

Apparently you can do it, so I don't see why you're arguing about it.

Actually, here's what I would do: for my second weapon, I could use a geth spitfire with thermal scope and high velocity barrel. That way, I can have a terrible recharge time so that I can use pull just to reload cancel, I won't even use pull at all.

I wasn't arguing. And I wasn't discrediting the solo, like I said. It's not a case of "this is easy, I can do it"...I just find the build really insulting. The solo is irrelevant to this discussion. Skipping biotic charge wasn't enough for you, you had to go and mess with the clusters? Why couldn't you suggest a build with pull/cluster grenades?

Because Cluster Grenades are a crutch. Now go do the solo, Kook.

I don't get it.


Limbs posted a challenge for people, to try and solo with a Drell who only has pull. Leland managed to do it. :wizard:

(Please) Just go and do it now and come back with pictures. That will settle the whole debate.


Anyway, great job OP, fantastic solo - not so much in skipping cluster grenades, but moreso in skipping charge! Half the fun is from pull/charging mooks. :D

Yeah, but what is "strings" referring to? Is that MP lingo? Is "pulling strings" even a common expression?

Pulling strings is probably in reference to just using Pull.

And yes "pulling strings" is common enough.

"Pulling at strings," maybe.

Yup.

It refers to puppetry. It means manipulating things behind the scenes to get things to play out the way the way you want.

Not to take away from the effort of making those quotes, but pointing out his hypocrisy is sort of like shooting fish in a barrel. :lol:
