True story; Shadoz's duration huntress has outscored my damage huntress on several occassions.  One such instance he also outscored a perfectly competent damage GI.  That was a really fun game, as I recall.

Using a Striker or Adas with duraton TGI is actually a very powerful setup since they do not break cloak.

I always go for duration, you never know what PuG you get, also i am the Medic

[1badmage]

I'm a former duration user now spec'ing into damage. Killing things seems to be better for the team than extra duration, going by my platinum extraction percentage and game time. Honestly, it's so selfless of me taking damage that I should get a medal for it.

[Stillsean]

Oh yeah? I'll lol when you eventually get difficult devices or have to revive someone in a rough spot.

So you mean you can't do devices with any other kit apart from infiltrators with duration? I LOL at that...LOL!

[Stillsean]

Since when did GI had time for Disabling devices and reviving, huh?

I wonder... and DAI. They are the ones that make sure nothing disturbs the device handler.

I always ensure there's a duration infiltrator on every team. I'm not taking any chances.

[Blarg]

I almost always use duration. It helps a lot with objectives, revives, and escaping.

[Sailears]

On shadow (obvious reasons) and OFI.

 

For QFI - paladin/stickies/tech burst build. Very sneaky character.

[Silvershroud]

Like most of the others said, I also only use duration on the Shadow.  It's the only infiltrator that I don't always break the cloak before the duration runs out anyways.

[Brandinator]

Duration really helps with the device objective.  However, I prefer damage because it gives me the challenge of being prudent with my choices of when and where to cloak.  I'm usually the squad mate who has the speediest revives (use a Drell Infiltrator with Adrenaline Mod III for this purpose).  The short cloak duration is even fun with a Volus.

Only the Shadow. Had devices recently and offered to do them only to be told by the MQI that he was also specced for duration. Surprised me

[PsychoticBiotic]

Never.

I've never tried the MQI duration specced, but it might make sense for him, since arc grenades don't break cloak.

 

Take arc pistol, hurricane, and grenade capacity, nuke entire spawns while still under cloak, headshot stray mooks with the arc pistol, and wipe out bosses with tac scan and the murdercane.

 

I'd still prefer damage specced with arc pistol and harrier though, enemies die so quick they don't get much chance to shoot back, so it doesn't matter if they can see you.

Ok now I have to ask, where are all the infiltrators with duration because I hardly ever see any of them in all the games I play. And I ask again what if there are no infiltrators in the game, will that mean that devices would not get done?

You are joking right ?

That's kinda the point.

[FuriousFelicia]

I see plenty of durinfiltrators in pugs

[zvvie]

Sometimes.

[Stillsean]

No joke... I almost always end up doing everything myself unless I am lucky to encounter good PUGs, otherwise most PUGs are either all dead or, with a bit of good fortune, serving as a distraction.

[Dr. Tim Whatley]

They can, but it's much more difficult. Why take the risk?

[Stillsean]

Well, you are right but the thing for me is that I haven't much perceived that risk you are referring to. You can't control PUGs thus the chances of running into an infiltrator is 50/50. then the odds that the infiltrator actually knows what to do is another 50/50 thus reducing the probability that all infiltrator friendly objectives will get done.

I have been lucky to play with good players who don't need infiltrators to do objectives like devices because they give good cover anyway. 

It's got to be damage always because for me it affects the game more than duration. I just need the enemies distracted a little bit to do devices. By the time, I lose the cloak the device is almost done. Risky yes but doable...

I'm just messing with you. I'm an advocate for damage cloak, even on the shadow. I have had some posters try to legitimately use those excuses though.
