[Best VolusSupport NA]

What changes did you make? I'm always looking out for VolMerc improvements.

 

 

 

 

Great news,...

what have you done to your little Merc? Why did you spec your Sig Character as it is. No detonating Pets?
 

 

These changes I made on my volus merc build go as followed:

Decoy spec'd to full durability, instead of duration with shock and durability and duration, to prolong it's survivalbility against geth bombers and geth rocket troopers because, they're pretty much the only 2 units that can reliably kill your decoy while everyone not a boss type or a dragoon will inaccurately shoot it missing 100% of the time.

 

Combat drone I basically just changed rank 4 from damage and shields to detonate to give it versatility, for example when enemies try to close in on the combat drone, or casting it after a geth bomber does a carpet of grenades, so it explodes when the grenades blow up and does decent damage. Everything else is the same damage and shields on rank 5 and rockets at the end on rank 6 

 

Shield boost no changes.

 

As far as passives go, I only went up to rank 5 this time and used the last 6 points to put in 3 ranks in fitness everything else is the same in passives, rank 4 weapon damage and rank 5 power damage.

 

The 3 ranks in fitness is just to survive DoT damage so I don't die as fast from a atlas rocket or a banshee warp. 

 

Gear I went from geth scanner to structural ergonomics for fast power recharge.

 

Alternatively as I was posting this it might be better to go with weight and power damage on passives instead of weapon damage because it gives a faster cooldown than from structural ergonomics and substitute the weapon damage from rank 4 passive, with the shotgun amp V gear. 

 

But I kinda like the cooldown window on shield boost because I can reload cancel off it, not sure if doing it the alternative way would give me enough time to reload cancel my reegar.

thx

hmm, ... never tried Decoy this way. Next re-spec card will be a tribute to your Volus Merc!

Low: My teammates were kissing the flor constantly

High: Banshee teleported through wall, grabbed me and saved me from the agony

[Sinful Force]

High - I think I've maxed all my skin tones on PS3...

 

Low - the long wait for UR drops now begins...

[Saikyo_McRyu]

Died a lot on a pug Dagger/lolberus/Gold with my Krentinel until I smacked myself and started hanging out with the team instead of farming grenades. I died less and dumb cerbies died more. Full extraction yay

Never trust someone that says "trust me", or in m33mperish that translates to wearing BotB banners.
Just can't trust those folk.

There is a nice game you can play with a BotB banner. It's called "BotB Tennis".

Works best if u have 3 buddies (drop own banners beforehand)

If u see such banner shoot a few shots in the air and then linger around aimlessly (never ever park) to confirm their primeval suspicion that you're useless. Make sure not to die first. If they die, wait. Shoot max swarmer or wound a husk to avoid being thrown out by AI. Slowly move in their direction, but be always just too slow. If u have a mic make comforting noises, like : gotcha, I'll be with ya etc.

delaying revival is very important since they'll rage gel quickly out of shame. Wave budget is low anyway at the start, wait it out. No harm. Their greed will drive them to become more wreckless, because they can just imagine themselves boasting epeen scores like "150k leading the rest" in BSN the next day.

Somewhere after w6, after they've wasted some cobras, they'll all of a sudden be in close vicinity of the number 2 player. But be cautious - that's the parasitic troll phase of low consumbles.

Some interpret this close vicinity as team play - but it's really a nasty trap - since they are piggy backing on your primes near the spawns and counting on being faster than your cooldown for detonation. At this stage of the game nr. 2 (if u were stupid enuf to shoot more swarms) has to have the greatest distance from the BotB that the map allow.

A proven success strategy is to short drop the ball (like in tennis): you would prime just outside their reach (distance/ round the corner) and play them tired to troll steal detonations. If all pugs works together it can be great fun to watch. Push them to the limit by killing a mook enemy just when they are in range. It's the lost small kills breaks their spirit. Done good, they'll start to tire and loose concentration and make small mistakes. Let them use all medigels. The test is them bleeding out two waves after another. The fatcats usually ragequit by w7 to "punish" the pugs.

Be nice back to your local BotB scorwar and play some tennis with him/her.

Low: loaded into a match midway through a banshee sync kill animation at the start of w9

 

High: there was another fat turian soldier in the game. i spectated the hell out of that turian

High: awesome day today. In the morning I played Gold with teabaggin krogan. At night with Sinful, spectre and Nightman. We warmed up with Gold and finished with 2 Plats.
I pretty much don't play plat for obvious reasons. So I'm not used to it. All 3 of them get grabbed by banshees at wave 1 and I'm left alone to kill banshees and brutes and an invincible cannibal. Spent 2 cobras and a gel but it worked out. Second match was much smoother. Even too smooth
To be fair I was cheesing the TGI but I'm allowed as I don't have manifest for Plat. I tried to stay alive and kill things ocasional while they did the heavy work.
Got 2 new characters from RPs including the long expected warlord.

Low: can't remember on any low, it was very cool

[Teabaggin Krogan]

Super High: I got to play with Oni Changas, Sinful Force and czeuch, great games all round even though I disconnected half way through with Sinful and had a bit of lag otherwise. I also got the running glitch when playing with Oni and evnltn where I was in the running animation but I was moving slower than a volus with a spitfire! Pretty funny even though that got me killed a lot. All round good games with czeuch who's pretty good himself. 

 

Super Low: Fell and broke my controller  Fuckkity ****!

High:  I just got a msg from somebody named Ersspaladin or something like that.. on PS3...( also, a Best of the Best banner wearer)....telling me ..as I joined their silver lobby..that I am such a noob that I dont deserve to play silver...( I am guessing they deduced this fact from my N7 & CP numbers) .so they dropped it down to bronze  (what would your response be?)  dude.....people, man..people...I just finished 2 platinum games with Sinful & SpectrePierogi & Czeuch...I unlocked the collector adept..which i have not played in over a year..combined with my csmg 1 .....I just wanted to relax and get re-aquainted with this character..but....people man, people.

I think he was right if you just now unlocked the collector adept.    I know I know. alt account

You had my curiosity, but now you have my attention.
I guess he kickvoted you and you didn't play with him, but if yes, please tell me you outscored or at least trolled him during the match.

Carpe Diem! This is an once off opportunity to get used to the ds4 for me:a. Or did u break it on purpose?

Nope. I dropped into his lobby 3 times in a row..as he quit each time....I searched for a game a few minutes ago...nothing...

High: took the novaguard out for a spin after the looooooongest time. Rediscovered how fun it is to play this kit - even against collectors.

 

Low/High: got synced, but only once, and it was my fault for chaining charges too fast and straying away from the rest of the team. Knowing when to charge/roll/nova around sync killers adds real tension to the match!

 

Higher: was in a team with two great priming kits, HAdept and flamer GT, nothing like charge detonating one power, and nova detonating a second one

 

Highest: all the AAAAAHHHH UUUUGHH RRRRRAAAAAAGH apparently makes people deaf to the announcements of the reactor activating triple takedown! Went in and missiled the reactor clean, then proceeded to revive everyone

 

Low: on a later match, got for the first time the bug where one enemy will become invincible and go berserk. In this case, a geth trooper on wave 5. Killed and stomped the others real fast, then started chasing me really aggressively. Shooting it did nothing, sabotage did nothing, missiles did nothing. No stagger, no flicking of the health bar.

 

High: eventually, it dropped off the map and died. Proceeded to finish the match to full extraction.

High - work just gave me a new lenovo w541, let's see if it runs me3mp better than my old potato at home

 

Low - puuuuuuugs

[Teabaggin Krogan]

No not on purpose and I was thinking of getting a separate ds4 in addition to play dark souls 3 on pc. Just didn't think this soon though! And this has screwed my plans for the weekend when I was finally free to play some me3 mp. 

[czeuch]

This dude this sucks. Maybe you could rush to a store and buy a new one to enjoy your family free weekend?

ErzPaladin don't mind this guy he's troubled.
Hey I was there on those 2 Plats too

Nice. The nVidia Quadro should be abe to run ME3MP at 60fps without struggling.

[Brannigans 1ove]

High point:  10WS on London/Reapers with Drake, CTC, and a PUG.

 

Low point:  Wiping on W8 on Condor/Cerberus in an unwitting duo with CTC.  ****** of a map/enemy to get for my first game trying out a full melee build vorcha.  A full team game on White/Geth was a good deal more successful/fun.

Dude is probably 2nd biggest douchebag I've ran into on this game. His assholery has been discussed on here before
