Actually not too bad of an idea. I tend to think Cryo works better with rapid-fire weapons though, because a high damage per shot weapon doesn't benefit much from armor weakening. Plus, the Executioner's damage is right on the border of where you can OSK a lot of different Gold mooks with a body shot (Marauders, Guardians, Cannibals, Captains, Collector Troopers, Hunters). Sometimes the extra ammo damage you get from AP or Drill III makes the difference between a OSK and having one bar of health left.

Obviously, I have used and thought about this build a lot, and there are a lot of damage thresholds that come into play for OSK'ing mooks and one-shotting their shields with Overload. It's most effective when it's specced perfectly around the damage thresholds for the difficulty you're playing.

Yes, Cryo works best on rapid fire guns (especially the PPR) but it's not to bad on some slower guns like the Adas either.

[PatrickBateman]

Try Cryo! It weakens armor, doubles your Incinerate damage, and won't interfere with your wombo combo

For my part I only use the freeze combo on Incinerate for the FQE and Paladin as they have Cryo blast and snap freeze, for the HE and SE I'd say you get a better result from armor damage even when using Cryo IV.

I've been having fun lately with my QFI using the Javelin and sticking it to the geth. I'm getting pretty good with the javelin and I really wish I could see an upgrade for it from the troll store. Any tips on getting it to a decent level?

space magic or patience

[MrRated82]

Patience is wearing thin! I've thought maybe just save up a few million creds and the delete dlc. I'm crap at saving though!

[mexximal]

exactly same build im using and it works like crap. also i barely play vs geth because i find it boring. my most played faction is collectors then cerberus.

 

That's how I keep trying to build Decoy and Drone. Neither seems to draw much aggro though, and the only CC I get out of it is if I dump it in a spawn and let the shock do its thing. Decoy seems to do absolutely nothing except let me check out another round ball of fun (Volus Love!), I don't think I have ever seen a Decoy get shot in my 800hrs.

Well, if you (or an other teammate) stand too close to the enemies or the decoy/drone, they will usually shoot you instead.

 

The (suicide) drone is IMO great vs all factions because it staggers mooks reliably and detonates techexplosions. It can even stagger a plat atlas when it explodes. And phantoms.. they really hate it

 

I really like the decoy, it's esp. useful in plat since there are tons of dumb geth units that fell for it. I mainly use it to put away some stress from my teammates and to distract the enemies in objective waves. There some situations where it really shines e.g. devices vs  geth / gold or plat on open maps like london or hydra.

If i don't stay close enough the decoy just disappears.

[mexximal]

Yes, but that's not really an issue imo. I usually take a RHA spot before i spawn the decoy, the mooks will try to kill my decoy then and i can kill them without getting shot at all.

Blade armor is bugged by the way, on gold and platinum enemies take less damage when they hit you not more, you still get the other benefits though.

[Ahglock]

Thanks for the heads up. I'll try to avoid brutes on gold+ then if the return on damage gets skewed. I guess I wanted some Diablo 2 damage return action.

By far the most fun use for Cryo ammo.

I recently made this n7 demolisher build

 

It's pretty good

[Terminator Force]

^ Wrong. Your HVB & Pierce mods are backwards. This is BSN, go back to bronze.

I don't like the executioner for the same reason i'm not a fan of the claymore.  I pretty much always miss on my first shot.

For me the Acolyte is the one that's wrong.

When I made a thread of that image a few years ago, people were posting that it bothered them because they were "two op weapons", totally missing the point that what really bothered the bulk of the posters was OCD upgrade placement

 

Those were the good old days

Sorry I didn't know you had OCD. 

 

Also why should I do what you tell me.

Telling me to go to bronze is asking a high price more than what a nigerian prince can offer me for my standards

Melee BatGuard

 

In all my years of Mass Effect, I have never cared for Vanguards.  This guy though is loads of fun!

 

He has two basic attack sequences:  Biotic Charge > Triple Tap Melee Combo, and Lash > Heavy Melee Hatesurf.  The reason for Charge > Triple Tap is that getting the Heavy Melee to track immediately afterwards seems tricky, if not altogether impossible.  Plus it's a cool sequence anyway.

 

QUERY:  Does Fitness Rank 5a (increase melee damage after an enemy is killed by a heavy melee) trigger after the final hit of the Triple Tap?

 

For boss killing power, the AP Ammo Raider takes entire chunks out of Armor Bars, despite not having a Shotgun Rail Amp, and only taking Passives up to Rank 4b.

 

For Phantoms, 6b Lash will toss them through Barrier, so either Hatesurf, or Lash > Forget and let them become someone else's problem.

HOW DARE YOU! Now I'm going to spend the entire night jittering and trying not to have nightmares! MAGAZINE FIRST! THEN BARREL! And NEVER EVER two diffierent orders! YOU EVIL FIEND OF MIND DISTORTION!

[Best VolusSupport NA]

I changed my N7 Demo build.

 

What changed:

• Build itself focuses on maximising power damage.
• Executioner pistol changed to arc pistol equipped with piercing and power mod.
• SP rank 5 changed to power damage from gun damage.
• Passive rank 6 changed to power damage instead of wpn damage and max grenades.
• Rank 4 arc grenades changed to damage from radius .

 

Fun build nonetheless I also ran it in platinum to test its effectiveness and it does fine.

 

Note: Power amp isn't a must you can run the cyclonic alternative or some other consumable of your choice
